I appreciate the idea. I can't—one of the other things that's frustrating to me is that at a typical day like this, when I do three or four events like this, the number of foreign policy questions that I get are between zero and one. And the American people are not concentrated at all on China, on Russia, Iran, Iraq. This president's failure to put in place a status forces agreement allowing 10-20,000 troops to stay in Iraq? Unthinkable! And yet, in that election, in the Jimmy Carter election, the fact that we have hostages in Iran, I mean, that was all we talked about. And we had the two helicopters crash in the desert, I mean that's—that was—that was the focus, and so him solving that made all the difference in the world. I'm afraid today if you said, "We got Iran to agree to stand down a nuclear weapon," they'd go hold on. It's really a, but…by the way, if something of that nature presents itself, I will work to find a way to take advantage of the opportunity.posted by Marisa Stole the Precious Thing at 4:19 PM on October 22, 2012 [1 favorite]

"We've had this consistent critique and narrative on Obama's foreign policy, and we felt this was a situation that met our critique, that Obama really has been pretty weak in a number of ways on foreign policy, especially if you look at his dealings with the Arab Spring and its aftermath," one of Mr. Romney's senior advisers said on Wednesday.The original source of the quote is the NYT, but see this post from TPM.

David Brooks on PBS: I thought the Horses and Bayonets comment was condescending.Yes, condescending. As if Mitt Romney didn't know that his "Navy smaller than 1916" line that he's been trumpeting nonstop is completely idiotic. Of course Mitt Romney knows that his "Navy smaller than 1916" line that he's been trumpeting nonstop is completely idiotic. Calling him out on it? For shame, Mr. President.
One of my aphorisms is never take any commentator on military affairs or foreign policy seriously unless they've read Thucydides. Only one of the men on stage tonight gave any indication being even passingly familiar with The Peloponnesian War. That is the man I will vote for.Obama knows to never get surrounded on Sphacteria.
A group of 20 British soldiers near Basra fought off an ambush by over 100 Mahdi fighters in Iraq, but eventually ran low on ammo. They then resorted to a fierce bayonet charge that killed 20 militiamen and compelled the rest to flee or surrender, with only three British soldiers injured.posted by jjwiseman at 8:29 PM on October 22, 2012 [5 favorites]
The US army has not issued bayonets to soldiers in Afghanistan, nor did it in Iraq. The US military's last bayonet charge was in 1951, in Korea.Well by that measurement nuclear weapons are more obsolete than bayonets. That might actually be true, but the point still stands. Modern militaries still have bayonets, still train with them, and can still issue them. The bayonet is not obsolete in the way that the horse is. The US military will enact another bayonet charge long before another cavalry charge. Anyway, this is a silly argument.
"Governor, I knew Thucydides. Thucydides was a friend of mine. You are no Thucydides."Obama is Pericles, Romney is Cleon. Sure, Pericles is a great statesman, but Cleon may surprise you, much to your dismay.
Much of the Chinese coverage of the presidential campaign has focused less on who might win than on China-bashing rhetoric from the candidates.posted by Secret Life of Gravy at 8:51 PM on October 22, 2012 [1 favorite]
Obama and Romney have had heated exchanges about China's alleged currency manipulation, unfair trade practices and the loss of American jobs, each accusing the other of being soft on the issues. The fear in China is that the victor will find it hard to dial back the tone after the election.
The Foreign Ministry and the official Xinhua News Agency last week took the unusual step of commenting on the U.S. election and urging both candidates to cool it.
Contrary to Romney's suggestion, the law doesn't actually give the president authority to immediately impose punitive tariffs on manipulators, and the Economic Policy Institute has suggested that such a move would violate U.S. commitments under the World Trade Organization, which require that trade spates be worked out through the organization's the dispute settlement mechanism — potentially a years-long process.posted by cashman at 8:59 PM on October 22, 2012 [1 favorite]
Romney's move might carry more firepower if Congress were to pass the Currency Exchange Rate Oversight Reform Act of 2011, a bill that would deem currency manipulation a form of subsidy and require the Commerce Department to consider what tariffs could be issued in the response. Perhaps ironically for Romney, the bill, which has already passed overwhelmingly in the Senate, was sponsored by Ohio Democrat Sherrod Brown — one of the Senate's most liberal members — but faces opposition in the House from Republican leaders John Boehner and Eric Cantor.
Of course, just because the legal ramifications of the manipulator label are unclear doesn't mean the political consequences wouldn't be major. Romney's comments last night were enough to prompt threats of a currency war in China's state media. Such a move on "day one" of the Romney administration would certainly send a message — but more of a symbolic than a legal one.
Intelligence reports coming out of Soviet Central Asia and Siberia indicate that the Soviets have undertaken an extensive horse-breeding program. The number of horses in the USSR increased fifteen percent (or forty-two percent [reports vary]) in the period 1968 - 1971. These figures indicate that the Soviet planners have assigned horse-breeding a high priority.posted by Herodios at 9:17 PM on October 22, 2012 [8 favorites]
The question now arises: What place does this crash program occupy in Soviet strategic thinking? Here we can only speculate; but in the light of the Soviet Union's known expansionist aims, it behooves us to consider the possibility that they intend to use those horses against us. . . .
[Due to the accident of geography, our cities ] are at least four times as vulnerable to amphibious attack as the USSR. When one considers that they also have more horses than we do, the seriousness of the amphibious cavalry gap becomes apparent.
So if the Soviets are planning a sneak amphibious cavalry attack on the US, they will almost certainly use submarines, and will be building a larger submarine fleet. This, we find, is precisely what they are doing. The Soviet Union now has 401 submarines to only 152 for the United States.
Is there any hope of overcoming the disparity between our military capacity and that of the Soviets caused by our greater vulnerability?

I'm surprised the Republicans haven't realised that they have 79 electoral votes sitting in their back pocket for Romney right now.What are you referring to?
I wonder if they'll use them because they probably won't get the chance to pull off a stunt like it ever again.
koeselitz:He didn't. It was a comment I made to my friend while watching the debate because I thought that Romney's apparent ignorance of history disqualified him as a serious candidate for President. Then you laughed and the kids laughed and the dog laughed and I died a little inside. Naturally, I'll be including a link to The Peloponnesian War in my profile now.I missed most of this debate. How did Obama refer to Thucydides?
We still make primitive narratives of nemesis—we are making them today, and shall make more and more—out of what are, at heart, contingencies of accident and economic cycles.Shorter Herzberg on today's debate:
If Romney should win, we will be told that Obama's Presidency was doomed by fatal flaws evident to all from the beginning, and all that he has done will be tainted. His isolation, his inability to reach out to his partners, his creation of hopes which could never be fulfilled, his failure to coax and wheedle and court the Congresses as Lincoln and Johnson are now imagined to have done—the result in Ohio was predestined.
If, on the other hand, say, minorities in Cleveland should turn out in big numbers, and Obama wins by a narrow margin… why, then Obama will be like Lincoln, a battler who pulled it out, kept his cool, saw it through, and remade his country in his own image. What happens in the next three weeks will not just shape what happens next—it will dictate all that is said about all that had happened before (para spacing mine)

Mitt Romney essentially supports Barack Obama's foreign policy in almost every particular. The question is: Whom do you trust more to carry out Barack Obama's foreign policy, Mitt Romney or Barack Obama?
The series of seven debates in 1858 between Abraham Lincoln and Senator Stephen A. Douglas for U.S. Senate were true, face-to-face debates, with no moderator; the candidates took it in turns to open each debate with a one-hour speech, then the other candidate had an hour and a half to rebut, and finally the first candidate closed the debate with a half-hour response.The Lincoln/Douglas Debates (SCTV).
I'm looking forward to the time when the Presidential debates are settled mano-a-mano like Kirk and Spock fighting using those Vulcan weapons.Well of course Obama would win with Vulcan weapons.
Why watch verbal sparring when you can watch a real fight to death.
Obama would totally destroy Romney in this sort of fight.
For ourselves, we shall not trouble you with specious pretences- either of how we have a right to our empire because we overthrew the Mede, or are now attacking you because of wrong that you have done us- and make a long speech which would not be believed; and in return we hope that you, instead of thinking to influence us by saying that you did not join the Lacedaemonians, although their colonists, or that you have done us no wrong, will aim at what is feasible, holding in view the real sentiments of us both; since you know as well as we do that right, as the world goes, is only in question between equals in power, while the strong do what they can and the weak suffer what they must.posted by [expletive deleted] at 12:46 AM on October 23, 2012 [4 favorites]

Discrimination ain't what it used to be. That's a good thing! Discrimination, especially discrimination based on race, gender, age, sexual orientation, etc, used to be prevalent and potent. Since 1964, however, the United States has made huge strides in promoting equality under its laws and a more culturally tolerant society. Again, that is a very good thing!
The pendulum of intolerance, however, has begun to swing back toward people who have sincere religious beliefs that certain lifestyles are immoral.

Hibiscus Coast
25 kilometres north of Mackay is the Hibiscus Coast; a region of fertile sugar fields, unique mountain formations and isolated beaches.
Hibiscus Coast beaches include Pristine Seaforth and Halliday Beaches which, as they have stinger resistant nets, offer year round swimming.
They are popular with tourist and locals alike and have excellent picnic and barbecue facilities positioned at intervals along the foreshore. The nearby towns have a good selection of accommodation, cafes and restaurants.
Cape Hillsborough's 816 hectare national park nestles into the coastline and the spectacular beach has resident kangaroos as well as rugged rocky out crops.
There is a National Park Information Centre, picnic, barbecue area, public toilets and several walking trails. The Cape Hillsborough Nature Resort offers a good range of accommodation including caravans, camping, motels and beachfront huts.

Too Much Food
I've been resisting the fries at Five Guys because there's always more than I can eat in a small (they insist on calling it Medium, but they don't have a smaller one) order. I sprung for them today and my burger was in the bottom of the bag and the rest of the bag was filled to the brim with fries. I was stuffed and still pitched about 2/3 of the batch. I've tried a couple of "things to do at home with left over French Fries" and haven't been impressed enough to take the leftovers home.
Yesterday I was in Vienna for lunch, so I treated myself to one scoop of Nielsen's frozen custard. That, for me was about two and a half portions (but it was soooooo good I finished it anyway). Three and a half bucks, too.
Is there anything we can do to get smaller portions for these "sides?" I've written to Five Guys more than once and the answer is always the same - "We want to give our customers good value." No wonder I see so many fat people there. <G>
At least I can get a kid's size ice at Rita's. Maybe they should offer a "senior" size?
I've just stopped ordering fries there. The one closest to me is near a whole foods, so I get a salad there if I didn't bring one from home.
Thai Luang gives a ridiculous amount of food for lunch, but that gives me leftovers.
Outside of the leftover option, or sharing with friends (which DOES work with 5 Guys fries), I can empathize. Best I can say is that I end up avoiding some dishes or places entirely b/c of this.
re: WestIndianArchie
Yep, this is one big reason why I now go to Dolcezza instead of Gifford's - they have a tiny kiddie size portion.
I should think you could use the leftover fries in something along the lines of lomo saltado?
re: rarotonga
Neither Dolcezza nor Gifford's are anywhere near where I have occasion to go, and no matter how good, I'm not going to travel that far for ice cream when I can get a pint of Sinplicity at Balducci's (close by) and eat as small a portion as I want. At the price and richness, I don't feel bad about rationing it. <g>
Lomo saltado might work, and it doesn't appear to be difficult to make, but I'd have to try a restaurant version a couple of times to get a sense of the proportion of meat to potatoes. The one recipe that popped up just says "5 potatoes" for 2 pounds of meat, so it looks like the quantity of leftover fries (depending on how big the portion I got was, and how many I ate with my burger) might be appropriate for about 1/2 pound of meat, if it scales reasonably for a single portion. Thanks for the suggestion.
MikeR - I'm with you ! Unfortunately too many people believe that unless they get a heaping plate, they didn't get a good value for their dollar. Hence the obesity issue we're dealing with now. I have no idea what we do to convince restaurants to scale back - or at least offer a smaller option for those of us who really DO NOT want to stuff ourselves silly at every meal. Really, I think if they'd go back to offering "smalls" they could accommodate everyone. I want a taste of fries, too, but don't want a couple pounds of them! I like your "senior size" idea!!
Easy solution... just let me know when you're going out, come get me, and I'll take care of your leftovers.
re: Jacey
It may sound simple, but one person takes the order, one puts the burger in the bag, and a third person fills up the bag with fries. I'm sure that the "half order" request would get lost.
Once (this was at the Five Guys location at King & Beauregard streets, near Skyline) when the order taker asked if I wanted fries, I said I'd take some if there was a smaller order but that I couldn't eat a full order and I didn't want to waste them. It must have been a manager I was talking to, because when he handed me my bag, there was a cup (and just a cup, not a cup overflowing by another two cups) of fries in there. He said "I put a few in the bag for you."
Maybe I'll try "If I give you a dollar, can you slip a handful of fries into the bag?" but I'll bet someone could get fired for doing it.
I'm almost always by myself when I go to Five Guys so it's rare that I have someone with whom to share fries. On my visit yesterday, there was a couple with a small child who sat down at a table next to me. I offered them some of my fries while they were waiting for their order but they passed (they had some of their own). Maybe I looked too much like a child molester. <G>
re: MikeR
As crazy as it may sound, non-standard orders (like a few fries for a dollar) completely screw up the inventory control program at a large chain like 5 Guys. Portion sizes and subsequently raw materials orders are calculated based on tested formulas, and any deviation can cause all sorts of inventory and process problems.
I, too, would like a "tasting" or "senior" portion of many foods. I hate the waste! One of the reasons I like White Castle is that you can get just one or two sliders without having to deal with a quarter pound or more of beef.
re: dcandohio
The way Five Guys serves the fries, I can't imagine that they're very accurately portion-controlled. While it's always too much for one person, it varies between about 2-1/2 and 4 12 oz. Styrofoam cups worth.
Asking for half as many fries and paying full price only satisfies my desire not to throw food away. Why shouldn't I be able to get a smaller portion for less money? Not necessarily half price for a half portion, but at least a concession to the fact that price and serving size are relate.
Although I don't care much for Moe's, they have a Jr. size burrito that's just right for me, at less than the price of a full sized one. Sometimes I suffer for my principles and get one. <g>
I just ask for less....but of course always expect to pay the normal price. For the fries you can say "Give me 1/2 the normal amount." That is probably around the serving (if not more) you are looking for.
I went to get ice cream yesterday and really just wanted a cone with a small scoop so I told the guy I would pay for a regular cone but I just wanted a small scoop of vanilla. Most people are fine with that.
Since I am originally from Western Maryland and therefore more of a Pittsburgian, I love fries in salads. If I have leftover fries I will often save them then put them on a baking sheet the next day and warm them till they are crunchy and put them in a steak salad with blue cheese... I don't think they are going to give you less. If you are somewhere that you could put them out for the homeless you could do that although their packaging makes that difficult.
re: ktmoomau

With the baby boomer generation getting older, will there be a profusion of senior meals ? Reduced portions with a complementary glass of wine would be ideal.
re: ditsyquoin
I'm only mid to upper thirties and I've had the same thought - especially at Jackson's in Reston, where the kids menu trounces the main menu.
re: ditsyquoin
At Five Guys, the regular menu IS the children's menu. After all, you have to at least think like a kid in order to eat like that. <g>
I've never had a problem getting a kid-size cup of fruit ice at Rita's other than that last year they'd stamp my frequent purchase card with it and this year they won't, since the card gets you a free medium sized anything. And before Frozen Dairy Bar started calling their one-scoop serving "single scoop" rather than "Mini" I used to order a Mini with no hassles. But I haven't tried ordering off the kids' menu at a more conventional restaurant.
I don't see any reason why they wouldn't sell it to you, though. Often, however, the kids' menu has things like a PPJ sandwich or spaghetti, and that's not usually why I go to a restaurant. (well, occasionally for spaghetti, but then usually there's wine involved
I discovered that McDonald's has a Senior Drink, but it's the same size as a regular one (which is irrelevant unless you're carrying it out since refills are unlimited) and only the price is lower.
re: ditsyquoin
Am I the only pig who actually enjoys large portions!?
re: chicken kabob
I enjoy large portions too! If I'm going to throwdown then I want to do it right!
re: lrebetsky0423
Glad I am not the only one, Irebetsky!!
re: chicken kabob
Yeah. And really? Too much ice cream in one scoop?? I guess my Vermonster story wouldnt be appropriate here then. :D
re: Insidious Rex
HA! ! No, we'd love to hear your story. I don't mind larger portions of things if I am
indulging. Like at a really good ice cream place. But these days most of us eat
out quite often, not just for a treat. I'l like to see restaurants, even fast food places,
acknowledge that we aren't always indulging, sometimes it's "just a meal" and give us the option of a smaller portion.
So - to stay on the Chow topic - who do you like that does offer sensible portions?
Not those cutesy one-bite things, but a portion such that you could have an appetizer and entree if it was just your average weeknight dinner out?
re: ivysmom
I feel like I have been tooting the horn of Sonoma a lot lately, but I like that their pasta portions are small enough that you can have a first course and a pasta (even though it is probably really supposed to be a first course) and not to be way too full or leave a ton on the plate.
PS7 had that type of portion size too.
re: ivysmom
I haven't been for quite a while, and it was serviceable but not inspired cooking then, but Rampart's in Fairlington/Bradlee area of Alexandria offered reduced-size entrees for about $3 less per. Bigger than an appetizer but portion size was about 2/3rd of regular.
re: ditsyquoin
ditsy - most places don't put an age restriction on the kid size anymore and I gladly take them up on it, although I'd rather it were worded differently and I feel less self conscious when accompanied by actual kids
'course if I'm in a place that's more serious, there's always the appetizer(s) and salad route .

Provided by Wayland Baptist University
The last time the Wayland Baptist Pioneers were on the same football field as the Howard Payne Yellow Jackets, Butch Henderson felt about as elated as a head coach can. Having revived its football program after 72 years, Wayland posted its first victory after seven-plus decades at the expense of Howard Payne.
"That was fun. The kids made play after play after play," Henderson said following the Pioneers' historic 27-23 win last Sept. 15 at Greg Sherwood Memorial Bulldog Stadium.
The coach even admitted to getting a bit choked up in his
post-game speech to his players.
"I couldn't talk a whole lot," he said.
Henderson hopes he has similar feelings after the Pioneers (0-2) – seeking their first victory of year two – take on Howard Payne (1-1) at 1 p.m. Saturday at Brownwood's Gordon Wood Stadium. The game can be heard on KKYN (106.9-FM) with audio streaming and live stats available through www.wbuathletics.com.
For Henderson and the Pioneers to leave Brownwood on Saturday as happy as they were a year ago after playing Howard Payne, Henderson feels his team will have to play beyond the level it did last season against the much-improved Yellow Jackets.
"It took them a year to get the kids recruited in there to do what they wanted to do," Henderson said, referring mostly to HPU's Roger Geise who now is in his second season as the Yellow Jackets' head coach after serving as a defensive coach since 2005. "They're a lot more athletic, and offensively they're a lot better."
Howard Payne, whose last winning season came in 2005 and which has won only 11 games the past six years, already has tasted success this season. After a season-opening 47-29 loss to Trinity University, the Yellow Jackets defeated Southwestern Assemblies of God University, 41-27, last week on the road in Waxahachie to match the program's 2012 win total.
"They played well against Trinity, but they turned the ball over late in the game and that got them in a bind," Henderson said.
Then in HPU's victory over Central States Football League member SAGU, Howard Payne recorded 510 yards of total offense, sparked by freshman quarterback Richard Young's five-touchdown performance. Young (6-0, 180), who completed 17-of-29 passes for 230 yards, tossed three of his TDs to sophomore receiver Colby Mica (6-2, 180).
On the ground, sophomore Zarron Dove (5-8, 175) ran for 150 yards and scored two TDs, including one receiving.
"They're moving the ball extremely well offensively," said Henderson, who figured the Yellow Jackets might opt to run the ball more this season, but instead have mixed it up. "They're converting back into a balanced offense."
Henderson praised the HPU quarterback from Gunter.
"Richard Young has performed well for them in their first two ballgames," he said. "(But) if you don't put enough (defenders) up there in the box, they're going to run it, then if you do they like to throw it on the outside edges."
Defensively, the Yellow Jackets are led by a pair of linebackers in senior Bo Ross (6-0, 215) and freshman Jason Disney (6-0, 205). Last week against SAGU, Ross had eight tackles while Disney recorded seven stops, a sack and a forced fumble. Junior defensive back Victor Gonzales also posted eight tackles against SAGU.
Henderson said the Pioneers – after dropping last week's home-opener against Houston Baptist, 52-28, after being tied at halftime, 28-28, – must play more consistently.
"We're trying to get to the point where we execute consistently," the coach said. "We did a great job in the first half, but came back in the second half and just didn't do the same things."
He said a variety of factors played into last week's second-half breakdowns.
"One time one person messed up, and another time somebody else messed up," Henderson said. "What we have to do is get everybody on the field playing together, like we did that first half, throughout the game."
Henderson said he plans to continue rotating three quarterbacks. After alternating by quarter in the season-opener against Adams State, sophomores Braden Hudson and Anthony Campuzano and redshirt-freshman Josh Houghtaling took turns between series against Houston Baptist.
"We're trying to get one of them to emerge," Henderson said.
Last week, the trio combined to complete 13-of-33 passes for 127 yards. Most of the Pioneers' offense against Houston Baptist came from sophomore running back Kendall Roberson, who rushed for 138 yards.
Howard Payne certainly is familiar with Roberson, who in last year's Wayland win ran 25 times for 177 yards and all four of the Pioneers' touchdowns, including the go-ahead score on a 2-yard run with just 47 seconds left in the game. That touchdown followed a 1-yard TD run three minutes earlier that pulled the Pioneers to within three.
Saturday afternoon's game is Wayland's final tune-up prior to the start of CSFL play next week when the Pioneers kick off a three-game home stand against Texas College. Henderson would like to secure a win to boost the team prior to conference play.
"The longer you go without winning deepens that hunger down in there to be able to accomplish that," he said. "Playing good lasts for a while, but you want to win."
NOTE: Henderson's son, Rick, is a student at Howard Payne, although he is not a member of the Yellow Jacket football team like last season. Butch said Rick became ill before the season and was unable to practice. As a result, he is redshirting this season with the intent of playing again his senior year. Rick is majoring in Christian education and history and wants to become a youth minister.

The Fall P23 Reviews
The actual Chapter. Enjoy =]
(C)CopyRight 2008
A week had past and soon I felt more and more like a captive animal than a human. I would make circles around the apartment and go out into the dusk. Spencer called me into the kitchen were he had some dish for me cooking away.
"If you make another circle you're going to fall through the floor, I swear you've worn the hardwood down."
"I can't help it," I paused, "I going mad in here."
Lost grip of his spoon slightly but caught it before it fly completely into the pan. Spencer looked at Ryan with a book across his face sleeping. I began to crack my knuckles in attempt to calm my racing mind.
"I knew I couldn't keep you inside very long, it's," he paused thinking for the word, "Cabin fever? I think."
I took a seat at the kitchen island trying to catch the orange that now invaded his eyes; I wanted nothing more than a day outside for fresh air. The times I had been able to escape onto the deck Brendon had grown angry with me, as I was jeopardizing myself.
"I'm sorry," I whispered, "I just want to be outside."
"I know," Spencer said to his hands, "it's your earth scent."
I looked away and put my face in my hands breathing deeply. It was only a few moments until I felt his arms encase me. I felt my body shuttered and then collapse against his side. Spencer pressed his lips against my head.
"Spencer, I-."
We broke apart and turned to Ryan.
"Yes?" Spencer hissed. His tone spoke louder than his volume.
I could see some red in their eyes; I looked at Brendon approaching them.
"Pensais-je nous allias à Marilyn?" Ryan jetted, glaring at me.
"Nous allons encore," Spencer replied, his eyes filling with black.
"Arrêt!" Brendon shouted and both males looked at him.
I slowly stepped back but was caught by Brendon's arm; he pulled me in front of him holding my body like a parent. I looked away from the eyes that stared at me.
"She knows French," Brendon said and Ryan's eyes grew wide, "For Christ sake Ryan, you read her biography; she fucking lived in Paris for two years."
Ryan stepped back like he been slapped across the face, in a way he had. He slinked away and picked his coat throwing Spencer's his. Brendon put my coat over my shoulders before crossing the room for his.
"I'm sorry you had to see that," Spencer said quietly as we left the apartment and traveled down the elevators.
"Time is 8 pm," Brendon spoke with a low tone into Spencer's ear, "We'll reach Marilyn's at nine, Traffic looks bad."
"Thank you," Spencer replied and then pulled me next to him as we began moving down the levels.
I waited for the third floor to flash its number before I opened my mouth.
"Why does Ryan hate me?" I whispered so lightly.
Spencer tightly gripped my arm, and I saw his eyes flash a grey color, something I hadn't seen before. The elevator door dinged and slid open. It was almost as if we all were flouting across the floor. I was gently pushing into the limo and once we had all seated ourselves we drove off towards what I could only guess as Marilyn's.
"About your question in the elevator," Spencer whispered into my ear.
I nodded.
"He doesn't hate you."
My eyes darted to Spencer, our chins lined up against each others. He pulled his face to touch his nose with mine.
"He loves you."
"Why?" I spoke almost under my breath.
"Because I'm his maker."
The next hour flew by in a daze, I didn't know what to think and Spencer wasn't about to elaborate on what Ryan thought for me. Love? I didn't believe it, I couldn't. The boy had been annoyed that I lived with them, that I was their human pet. Even when we met he was not happy.
But, he had kissed me and touched me. Even though I didn't want him to, but he had. My stomach flipped as we entered a dark building which supposable housed Spencer's maker. Why was he in love with me, Spencer was in love with me, or at least I thought.
Was I even in love with Spencer?
"Spencer!" a Smokey voice called out.
I turned to see a very tall and thin Vampire standing upon stairs that stretch up two stories. He wore two different coloured contacts and had quite large lips painted with deep red lipstick. Spencer removed his coat and handed it to a servant. I tried to remove mine but my hands shook so hard that Ryan came to help me. His eyes were a soft yellow color.
"It's okay," I said quietly, but Ryan ignored my request and removed the jacket from my arms.
The hall we stood in was tall and built with black marble. I felt my skin flush with Goosebumps and a few servants who had been standing perfectly still turned at my scent.
Marilyn looked over Spencer at me; he glided over to my shivering frame and placed a hot hand upon my shoulder blade. He had just been feeding.
"So you are the Human named Emma?" He gave his servants a hard glare and they grumpily returned to their posts.
"You shouldn't be scared," he soothed, "We all fed before you arrived."
"Yes all of us," a familiar voice spoke from my backside.
Spencer hissed and ran towards him grabbing his throat. Brendon and Ryan ran to grab me but Marilyn had already handed me off to a stronger curly haired Vampire.
Peter pushed Spencer to the floor and the servants who lined the halls swarmed Ryan and Brendon.
"Take her to the car Joe," Peter called with a certain nonchalant tone, "Thank you Marilyn for the trap."
Marilyn smiled and nodded to his servants. They took the struggling Ryan and Brendon away from my view. I fought against Joe screaming and kicking.
Marilyn came over to my frantic self and slapped me across the face.
"I'd save your breath sweetie," he turned" I don't know what I'll do with this new money Pete, maybe build you a statue?" he chuckled with Peter as a wounded Spencer tried to stand.
"SPENCER!" I screamed. The tears that streamed my face were hot; I felt my self choking with hysteria, "SPENCER! LET GO OF ME!" I was squirming even harder.
Marilyn scowled at me.
"You betrayed me," Spencer spoke so hoarsely.
Peter made a b line for Spencer slamming his head to the concrete. Spencer made one last attempt biting Peter with all his strength. Marilyn yawned at their battle and soon waved his hand for servants to take Spencer away.
"WHERE ARE YOU TAKING HIM!?" I screamed fighting so hard against Joe.
"All this excitement really can't be good for you," Marilyn lowered his voice, "or your body."
Peter stormed by me holding his arm tightly. Joe began to pull me away but Marilyn stopped him to say one last thing to me.
"I'd forget about Spencer, he's as good as dead now. Spencer won't live the night." Marilyn took a deep breath, "he's come back to his maker, just as I bore him by giving him my blood I am going to take it away." He touched my soaked face, "There will be no more running away for him, or getting involved with humans like his father did. I am his father now, I am his life and his death."
I let my head drop with sobs. I could barely breathe.
"You have a piece of him now, and memories. Forget the rest," Marilyn whispered.
Joe pulled me away and I blacked out.

After winning the title in 2011, the Mavericks let centre Tyson Chandler leave instead of signing him to a new deal, in hops of saving cap money for a big name free agent this off-season.
With Chandler's defensive presence gone, Dallas wasn't the same team and barely made the playoffs as the seventh seed. Unable to muster the magic they captured the year prior, the Mavericks were promptly swept by the Oklahoma City Thunder in the first round.
After missing out on the big name free agents, Dallas retooled their roster with veterans like Elton Brand, Chris Kaman, Darren Collison and O.J. Mayo and will now try to make another run towards a title.
Analysis: Cunningham is an athletic wing, who has the ability to get to the basket, but lacks the strength to contend with bigger players at his position. What he lacks in strength, he makes up for with excellent quickness. His energy will be a welcome addition in Dallas.
Analysis: James is old for a rookie at age 27 and will likely fit better at power forward in the pros, as opposed to centre, which he played in college. James served in Iraq, which delayed his NBA career.
Analysis: A player can succeed at the next level with one elite skill and for Crowder that may be his defence. Crowder works extremely hard and brings a lot of energy to the court, along with above average rebounding skills.
Don't Doubt Dirk - Nowitzki's numbers may have dropped slightly last season, but there's no reason to second guess his ability when healthy. Nowitzki is one of the most efficient scorers in the entire NBA and when he returns from surgery he will pick up where he left off. With a better surrounding cast, Nowitzki will be ready for another post-season run.
Dirk Nowitzki's troublesome knee is a major concern for the Mavericks.
Going Deep - The Mavericks are one of the deepest teams in the NBA this season and that will be needed right out of the gates with Nowitzki sidelined. Nowitzki, Brand, Mayo, Kaman, Shawn Marion, Darren Collison, Vince Carter, Delonte West, Brandan Wright and Rodrigue Beaubois give the team a legitimate 10-man rotation. While it remains to be seen who will run their second unit, the Mavericks should be able to win the war of attrition as the season goes on.
Point Break - Acquiring Collison to man the point was an excellent trade that took advantage of a Pacers club that simply needed to jettison one of their ball carriers. with Jason Terry now in Boston and Jason Kidd in New York, Collison will be called on to lead the offence.
Missing Dirk - As great as Nowitzki is, the time spent without him in the lineup will be an equally great loss for Dallas. Nowitzki had arthroscopic knee surgery and won't resume activity on-court until late November at the earliest and won't return to action until well after that. With Nowitzki out of the lineup Mayo and Brand will be asked to fill the void offensively.
Get ready for the season with the latest from TSN.ca.
Weird Science - The Mavericks will have to try to find chemsitry with their star out of the lineup initially. Once he returns, it will be another learning process as Nowitzki acclimates himself to his new teammates. The players will also have to bye into a new system, which will be the responsibility of head coach Rick Carlisle. It's not easy, but if Carlisle can successfully bring the pieces together, Dallas will be in great shape late in the year.
X Factor: O.J. MayoThe biggest beneficiary of Nowitzki being sidelined is Mayo, who will have a chance to assert himself as the clutch scorer in Dallas. Mayo showed in Memphis that he is capable of taking a starting role, but in recent seasons he excelled off the bench as the sixth man. Mayo is just 24-years-old and if he can play smart in Carlisle's system he could be a breakout star this season.
What to ExpectWith a great coach like Carlisle, Dallas is in good hands. Given a new infusion of talent, Carlisle should be able to keep the Mavericks in the playoff picture, even with Nowitzki out for the first 15-20 games. Dallas doesn't need all of their additions to hit, but if two or three turn in solid years then the Mavericks will be a force late in the year.

The Mavs may have missed out on Deron Williams (which they now claim was a blessing), but they did a serviceable job in surrounding Dirk Nowitzki with a compelling supporting crew.
O.J. Mayo, in particular, holds fascination because Dallas seems especially interested in helping him turn his career around after seeing his production taper-off in Memphis.
Also, all of these new imports are on short deals, keeping Dallas financially flexible moving forward, a priority since they are still hoping to land that elusive second All-Star.

"Marcus Reeves gives voice to the world that hip-hop created and still hopes to create."—Mark Anthony Neal, author of New Black Man
"It's inspiring when a writer can bring insight, conviction and perspective to a subject too often lost in myth and controversy. Marcus Reeves does that and more. He knows the music and the history, and brings both vividly to life here."—Anthony DeCurtis, Contributing Editor, Rolling Stone
"Pay attention: one of the most compelling writers of our generation has arrived. Somebody Scream! is a deeply imagined, finely balanced, and richly detailed narrative of our nation's complicated, contradictory, often explosive post-Black Power journey."—Jeff Chang, author of Can't Stop Won't Stop: A History of the Hip-Hop Generation
"Reeves honors hip hop culture by illuminating it. He tells the story with great insight and deep compassion."—David Ritz, author of Divided Soul: The Life of Marvin Gaye
"If in Somebody Scream! Marcus Reeves only provided his exegesis of Public Enemy and Chuck D, it would be an indispensable book. The rest of the chapters, for me, are added value—and extremely valuable. What a remarkable new writer and scholar!"—Herb Boyd, author of Baldwin's Harlem
"Somebody Scream! is a panoramic, icon-by-icon rendering of hip hop. In the crowded field of hip hop lit, this book is a stand-out. Marcus Reeves has composed a portrait of the culture that possesses all the verve, intellect and swagger of a classic Rakim line."—William Jelani Cobb, author of To The Break of Dawn: A Freestyle on the Hip Hop Aesthetic
"In Somebody Scream, hip-hop adopts a broader role in context to African-American history. According to Marcus Reeves's book on the storied genre's major movements, hip-hop seceded the Black Power Movement of the 1960s as a cultural force for minorities in the United States to latch on. Of course, Reeves discusses the rise of acts like Public Enemy and Run DMC, but his analysis takes into account COINTELPRO, Assata Shakur's murder trial, and other key political events that have fueled their post Civil Rights aesthetic. He depicts rap music as a natural evolution from these watershed moments. No book about hip-hip is complete without a thorough study of Public Enemy and the haloed ensemble's contributions to rap music. Although Reeves starts his analysis fairly early in the book, he is careful to avoid sanctifying the group. Whereas most written accounts paint Public Enemy's music as a perfect amalgam of angst and intellect, Reeves shows instances where the group's political fervor was misguided . . . More importantly, Somebody Scream shows that Public Enemy and other hip-hop artists were not in an ageless vacuum when they conceived their masterpieces. On several occasions, the book makes the distinction that these groups were not making protest music just because it was cool, but in response to the tense social climate of the day. Reeves writes about Reaganomics, Yusef Hawkins's murder, and Jesse Jackson's 1988 stint for presidency under the guise that these events motivated hip-hop's lyrical content. To him, this on-record activism is akin to the militant efforts of the Black Panthers and other Civil Rights organizations. Just as early hip-hop transitions from the Black Power Movement of the 60s and 70s, Somebody Scream notes the point when the conscious music of Public Enemy shifts to the gangsta rap of Death Row Records. Reeves dedicates two chapters to Dr. Dre, Snoop Dog, and Tupac Shakur, documenting the rise of hardcore west coast hip-hop. Yet, Reeves does not spare the aggressive music from having its own share of political undertones. This connection is not all too far-fetched given that California rap's prominence coincided with Rodney King's beating and the L.A. Race Riots . . . Somebody Scream's final movement documents hip-hop's marriage to capitalism and extreme commodization. These chapters perhaps represent Reeves at his strongest as he wields through an era that he does not necessarily hold in the highest regard. Sean 'Puffy' Combs headlines Reeves's discussion of the genre's developed obsession with diamonds and shiny suits. Although the multimedia mogul is often blamed for adulterating rap's political message with meretricious showcases of wealth, Reeves reminds readers that Combs is foundationally as hardworking and relentless as anyone in the music business . . . He grants each period in hip-hop its share of recognition and acknowledges its contributions to the history in whole. Somebody Scream is not a nostalgic glimpse back in the golden age, but rather an objective document of hip-hop defining epochs and the social milestones that influences them. The painstakingly researched book is nowrequired reading for a class at Brooklyn College and is being compared to Jeff Chang's Can't Stop, Won't Stop in terms of its thoroughness and wide-ranging subject matter. With this book, rap's archives have grown that much stronger as Reeves, with his culturally astute eye, records the timeless hands of hip-hop history."—Sidik Fofana, Mosaic magazine
"The history of rap music, told against the backdrop of race relations in post-civil rights America. The story of this powerfully influential and yet surprisingly little-understood American musical genre has been told several times in the past few years; there would seem little need for yet one more account. Journalist Reeves's first book more than makes the case for its necessity, however . . . Couched in the lively prose of a cultural reporter, his thesis is that generations with little direct connection to the civil-rights or black-power eras find in rap culture 'the popular voice of America's black, brown, and white underclass. (Those huddled masses yearning to breathe free and, one day, [be] rich enough to drive off in a Bentley.)' To illustrate this idea, Reeves takes readers through a muscular narrative of rap music that gets more done by leapfrogging from one milestone to the next, avoiding the risk of spreading itself thin by attempting to be definitive. Each chapter places a particular artist or group in the context of what was happening simultaneously in racial politics, whether it was the assault on black teenagers at Howard Beach that inspired Run-D.M.C. or the Million Man March with Tupac Shakur. His attempt to suss out what exactly rap means in the modern black community is incisive and hopeful without succumbing to the hyperbolic claims common to music journalists. Energetic music analysis that's both celebratory and unusually honest."—Kirkus Reviews
"Drawing upon his 15 years as a journalist writing on youth culture and politics, Reeves traces the political history and influence of rap since the decline of the black power movement in the 1970s. His thesis, succinctly stated, is that rap music is a 'hardrock vessel carrying the hopes, anger, disappointments, attitude, and history of post-black power America.' Chronologically focusing on ten artists who have had a major impact on rap over the last three decades (from Run-D.M.C. and Public Enemy to Eminem and Jay-Z), Reeves places each musician within the sociopolitical context of the times . . . Reeves underscores the importance of rap as an art form that continues to evolve while remaining a viable means through which to channel future discourse of post-black power America."—Joshua Finnell, McNeese State University Library, Lake Charles, Louisiana, Library Journal
"Journalist Reeves proves himself an insightful and capable historian in this collection of essays examining the rise of ten distinct hip-hop movements and their respective avatars. The author displays a remarkable talent for linking lyrics and interviews with broad artistic and historical themes. Locating each artist within their larger social context, he also uses artist lyrics as apertures to overriding socio-political motifs, combing through tracks and imputing rhymes to the relevant racial struggles of the day."—Publishers Weekly

Reader Blog: Week 14 awards: Aramis Ramirez asks us to kindly stop hating him
Yesterday's turd of a game notwithstanding, the Cubs seemed to be playing a better brand of baseball this week. I speak mostly of the offense, which put up 39 runs in the week's first six games. They drew walks, came through with runners in scoring position and generally enabled us viewers to refrain from expecting the worst for at least a few days.
The pitching was middling, however, and cost them two losses including Friday's in which Ted Lilly took the Cubs out of the game early even though the Cubs would eventually score seven runs. Lilly has not exactly boosted his trade value in the last couple weeks, but the deadline remains nearly three weeks away. Speaking of a possible Lilly trade, word is that the Mets would hope to take on much of his remaining salary so that they could part with lesser talent. I hope Hendry wouldn't go this route--Lilly's salary comes off the payroll after this season anyways, so what good does a trade do if it doesn't net some decent prospects?
Ryno of the Week: Who was that man blasting home run after home run, looking generally comfortable at the plate and enjoying the long-overdue opportunity to look up at the scoreboard and see a batting average starting with a "2"? Aramis Ramirez had at least one hit and one run in every game this week except yesterday's, and clubbed at least one extra-base hit in five different games. He was 12-for-28 with four home runs and nine RBI. It was utterly fantastic.
Honorable mentions: Geovany Soto, Marlon Byrd
Goat of the Week: As happy as I am to write A-Ram's name above, I'm quite disappointed to be doling out the negative hardware to Tyler Colvin. His production has dipped noticeably in the last month or so, and he struggled to the tune of 2-for-17 this week with five strikeouts. Hopefully he can find his way through this slump and improve upon his .263 average.
Dishonorable mention: Ted Lilly

Grilled Apple-Smoked Striped Bass
The key to this simple dish, which earned our Test Kitchen's highest rating, is high quality fresh fish. It's served in many of the open-air restaurants of Benin's major city, Cotonou, and is always grilled over a wood fire. Wood chips infuse a similar smoky flavor. You can substitute red snapper, which cooks in about 8 minutes. A fish basket works great, but a perforated sheet of aluminum foil will also let you easily remove the fish from the grill.
Yield: 8 servings (serving size: 5 ounces)
More From Oxmoor House
- 1/4 cup apple wood chips
- 2 dried habanero chiles
- 1 tablespoon peanut or vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 1 (3-pound) striped bass fillet (about 1 inch thick)
- Cooking spray
- 1 lemon, thinly sliced
- Cover apple wood chips with water, and soak for 1 hour. Drain well.
- Place chiles in a spice or coffee grinder; process until finely ground. Place 1/8 teaspoon ground chile in a small bowl (reserve remaining ground chile for another use). Add oil, salt, and black pepper, stirring to combine. Rub spice mixture over fish; refrigerate 30 minutes.
- Prepare grill.Place wood chips on hot coals. Coat a large piece of heavy-duty aluminum foil with cooking spray; pierce foil several times with a fork. Place foil on grill rack coated with cooking spray. Place fish on foil; arrange lemon slices over fish. Grill 20 minutes or until fish flakes easily when tested with a fork. Serve immediately.

Sudden Cravings: 10 Decadent Chocolate Cake Recipes
In the summer, there are often competing forces when it comes to dessert. First are all the wonderful fruit desserts that we can really only have during these three or four months. (Hopefully you've had your fill of crumbles, crisps and pies this season. If not, you've got a little time yet.) The other force, for me at least, are the overly-sweet, fluffy cupcakes and confections you find at weddings, graduations and other summer celebrations. Often nice to look at, they generally don't taste all that great. So by the end of the summer, I find myself craving something different, a not-messing-around dessert: chocolate cake.
I have strong memories of having chocolate cake at home as a child. It was the cake my mother made us each and every birthday, hers an interesting and delicious concoction that involves potato and sour cream. She'd turn these into cupcakes with ease for school parties or celebrations. And for Christmas every year, she'd make Baked Alaska using a riff on the cake as the base for the dessert. We go way back with cake in the Gordon family. And so I thought it was time to put together a list of classic chocolate cake recipes today on the off chance that you may have tired from peach pie and berry slumps like a few of us around here.

Hmm... my birthday's next week.... :-D
Mine's tomorrow, and I always ALWAYS make myself chocolate cake. These look like interesting alternatives.
The only problem is: how do I select just one?!
This: http://www.thekitchn.com/why-i-make-my-o-164167
I saw it here earlier this year and it is now my go-to recipe. I have had multiple people tell me that it is the best chocolate cake they have ever had.... I'll be honest in that I tweak the frosting to taste, adding plain greek yogurt and whatever else tastes right on that day. I also make at least 1.5x the frosting recipe.... :)
My absolute favorite chocolate cake is from the Bon Appetit via the Bitten Word - Stout chocolate cake! I made one for myself for my birthday this year and should have invited more people, because you can just eat the smallest sliver - it's to die for!
This is my favorite chocolate cake recipe... I've made it many times, and always get recipe requests. I love that it is so simple... often you really want a simple cake for dessert; frosting seems like too much if it's not a birthday.
I'd love to try one of these but ever since I made this —
— I've been forbidden by my family to make a chocolate cake using any other recipe.
Nigella Lawsons ghoul graveyard cake... The chocolate cake recipe for that is quick, simple and reliable. Little old ladies at church who are famed for their baking ask me for the recipe when I I bring cake or mini muffins made with that mix.
Ruth Reichl's Big Chocolate Cake is my go-to chocolate cake recipe. It's moist, wonderfully chocolatey and not overly sweet. Mmmmmm...chocolate cake.
Smitten Kitchen's red wine chocolate cake is my go-to. Everyone wants the recipe when I serve it.

Clearly, the adorable bride Kyra looked stunning in her red gown, her husband wore all black and those colors became a running theme throughout all of their decor. And man did they pull out ALL THE STOPS when it came to their spooky, Burton-y, Halloween reception table decor.
WARNING: their centerpiece, while beautiful, just might give you seven years of bad luck and/or cut you!
Let's see more of this amazing table…
Table runner, red rose petals, floating candles, floating centerpiece… is there anything this table DOESN'T have?
Here's a view of the hanging branches. God damn this is cool!
The hanging broken mirror pieces manage to be both creepy and elegant. This decor is NOT for the superstitious… or for those who are afraid of cutting themselves on their wedding centerpieces.
The color combination of the linens is SO spot on. I love the silver and dark red combination.
If you want to see more of Kyra and Mitchell's Tim Burton-themed Halloween wedding, head over to UNIQUE Event Designs blog for more awesome photos from Life Long Studios.
