AU on how the X-men came to be. Major Jott and Kurtty. Scott, Jean, Kurt, Kitty, Evan, and Rogue have all had horrible lives. See how they ban together and become the future X-men with the help of ...
Chapter 14: Brotherhood Encounter
Around noon lunchtime had finally rolled around. The six teens met up in the cafeteria to eat. Overall, the first day of school wasn't nearly as bad as any of them had expected. All in all, it was pretty good given their circumstances.
Currently, they were all sitting outside at a single table eating their lunch and talking about their day.
"So what about you guys? How's it been going?" asked Evan as he took a bite of his sandwich.
"Not as bad as I thought," said Scott. "I'm glad I was wrong about this place earlier."
"Same here, definitely a step up from my old school. Better food too!" said Kurt as he took a big bite of his burrito.
"That's for sure," said Evan. "What about you, Rogue?"
Rogue didn't seem as anxious as she was earlier. Since meeting Risty, she grew a bit more comfortable with the new surroundings, but she still chose not to talk much.
"Well...It hasn't been terrible. Nothing like my old school, that's for sure. I even made a friend," replied Rogue.
"Vay to go Rogue! That's more than I can say," said Kurt with his mouth partially full of food.
"Uh...Thanks," said Rogue trying not to be grossed out.
Kitty only laughed at Kurt's table manners.
As they continued to talk about their day, five familiar figures hung back near the trees. It was the Brotherhood. Freddy had bought over a mountain of food on a tray and was in the process of devouring the whole thing. Lance and Pietro had more modest lunches while Toad spent the time trying to snag flies in the air with his long tongue. Wanda just sat off to the side reading a book, trying to avoid eye contact with Toad while he munched on insects.
"Man, why does Mystique want us in school anyway, yo?" said Todd as he grew frustrated trying to catch an extra pesky fly.
"Beat's me, but I don't really care. Free food!" said Freddy as he wolfed down an entire burger.
Lance just shook his head, knowing Freddy's legendary love of food would probably make him do anything for more.
"I don't know...She says something about needing a decent education and keeping tabs on human knowledge about mutants," said Pietro with a great deal of sarcasm in his voice. He never wanted to come to school in the first place either. It was just too slow for a guy like him.
As they ate, Lance suddenly noticed a certain group of people eating lunch at a table in the distance. They looked familiar...Too familiar for comfort. The memories of the Brotherhood's loss to Xavier several months ago still hung over him like a dark cloud. Mystique had been furious that they couldn't take down the six mutants that ended up siding with Xavier. She and Magneto had them do extensive, exhausting training as punishment for their failure that better resembled boot camp. The rest of the Brotherhood had never been told what happened to the kids Xavier recruited, but bitterness still hung strong.
"Yo Lance, you okay?" said Toad as he finally got the fly that he had been chasing for the last five minutes.
"Check it out guys. See anybody familiar?" said Lance gesturing towards the table where the unsuspecting X-men were sitting.
The rest of the Brotherhood looked towards the six other teens. To them they looked familiar, but they looked very little like the six mutants they had faced last March back at the docks.
"Uh, what do you mean Lance?" asked Blob, not seeing the resemblance.
"Look closer Blob, don't you recognize them?" said Wanda in a semi-exasperated tone.
Upon looking closer, Freddy finally realized what the rest of them already had. He immediately felt the anger upon recognizing the six teens.
"Hey! It's those goody little X-geeks from the docks!" bellowed Fred as he stood up, knocking over his lunch.
"You sure Lance? They don't look like em," said Todd.
Lance responded by hitting Todd upside the head.
"Ow! Hey, what the hell was that for?!" responded Toad bitterly.
"Wake up swamp breath, that was months ago. Xavier's probably trained and fed them since then. Which means they're probably stronger than before," replied Lance.
"I don't care! I think we deserve a little payback after what happened last time!" bellowed Blob.
"You'll do no such thing...Yet," said a new voice from behind them.
The five Brotherhood members promptly turned around to see Mystique standing before them.
"Mystique? What they hell are you doing here?" asked Pietro.
"The same thing you should be doing...Keeping tabs on Xavier's new soldiers," replied Mystique sternly.
"So it really is them," said Wanda looking back at the six teens at the table, still finding it hard to believe.
"Yes. And you will NOT engage them...Not here, not now," said Mystique with an authoritative tone.
"Aw come on! Why not?" said Blob still itching for revenge.
"Oh please," said Mystique in an exasperated manner. "You couldn't even beat them when they were nothing more than a pack of bare-boned bums. What makes you think you can defeat them now that they've been trained?"
Nobody responded after that. The fresh memories of what happened last time still hung over them. They knew Mystique's words were all too true. But this didn't stop the bitterness inside them.
"Don't worry, the time will come for us all. Now if you'll excuse me, I have more important matters to attend to," said Mystique as she shifted in to a raven and flew off.
"So what now?" asked Blob.
Pietro just smirked, "She said not to engage them as the Brotherhood...But she never said anything about engaging them individually."
"Whoa speedy, don't tell me you're gonna go above Mystique," said Toad.
"Oh, sounds like a challenge!" replied Pietro.
Wanda just sighed at her brother's arrogance. Lance too was noticeably indifferent to the speed demon's words.
"Come on guys! Do you honestly want those goody two shoes to get away with it?" asked Pietro trying to tap the pent up bitterness within each of them.
They all looked back at the X-men and watched them get up and head back to class. The Brotherhood of Mutants couldn't help but feel the anger grow from within them.
As Rogue opened her locker to get some books for class, she couldn't help but feel relieved that this day wasn't as bad as she had dreaded. She and her friends had been very worried about coming back to school after so many years of bad memories. It was nice to have such a drastic change of luck. Suddenly, as she closed her locker, she felt a strange presence behind her.
"You and your friends have got a lot of nerve showing up here!" said a thoroughly pissed voice.
Rogue turned around to see Wanda Maximoff standing in front of her with an angry look in her eyes.
"Hey I know you. Yer from the Brotherhood," said Rogue, undaunted by her presence.
The lights above them began to flicker.
"It's good you remember me, because I most certainly remember you! Don't think that I haven't forgotten our last fight..."
"Hey, you attacked US, Miss Scarlet Bitch!" yelled Rogue loosing her temper.
The lights flickered more as Wanda's anger grew. Rogue saw her beginning to make fists with her hands.
"You wanna hit me? Go ahead...See what happens when you touch the Rogue," replied Rogue in a stern, yet somewhat calm tone.
Wanda was about to respond, but then one of the administrators stepped in.
"Excuse me ladies, is there a problem?" said the administrator with an annoyed look on her face.
The lights stopped flickering as Wanda remembered Mystique's words about using powers in school. She could only look back bitterly at Rogue as she began to walk away.
"This isn't over," said Wanda.
After she was out of sight Rogue just stood there, dumbfounded by what had just happened.
"Well this day WAS going well."
Evan's last period was gym class. It was easy for him because of all the time he had spent in the danger room back at the institute. It was also a welcome change from his other classes. And since it was only the first day, most of the students just hung back and played basketball.
Evan simply shot hoops on his own. Basketball had always been a great release when he was back with his parents and when he was on the streets with his friends. The fast paced rhythm of the game seemed to make him forget all of the troubles that plagued his life. As he shot a three-pointer from a distance, an all too familiar boy caught the ball and approached Evan.
"Hiya Porcupine...Long time no see," said Pietro snidely.
"Hey I know you...You're a part one those Brotherhood goons that attacked me and my friends," said Evan growing a bit defensive at the sight of this boy whom he fought against personally last time.
"Name's Pietro, but my enemies call me Quicksilver," said Pietro as he started to dribble the ball and walk towards Evan. "You think you and the rest of your shitty pals are so hot, huh?"
"Well if I'm not mistaken...We did win in our first encounter," replied Evan with a smirk that only heightened Pietro's temper.
"That was beginners luck. I think now I'm entitled to a little payback," said Pietro with an overconfident look on his face. Then, he passed the ball back to Evan. "Come on, show me what you've got!"
Evan said nothing as he started to dribble the ball as Pietro took a defensive stance between him and the basket. Evan began to move to the right, but the speed demon followed him. He began to move to the left, but once again Pietro blocked his way.
"Too slow Porcupine! You're gonna have to do better than that!" taunted Pietro.
Evan took a few steps back beyond the three-point line and prepared to make his next move. Pietro stood ready for him as he awaited his advance. Then, just as it looked like Evan was going to make a hard drive for the basket, he simply shot the ball through the air and in to the basket with a swish.
"Three-points Quicksilver," said Evan triumphantly with a grin.
Pietro looked irked, but only for a brief moment. He then got the ball and made his way back towards Evan.
"Now it's my turn!" said Pietro confidently.
"Bring it on..."
Pietro began to dribble the ball as Evan focused on guarding the way to the basket. The speedy mutant then made his way to the left; Evan followed, but Pietro stopped for some reason. He went to the right, but stopped again almost as if he was taunting Evan.
"You can't win," said Pietro with a smug tone.
"Oh really?" replied Evan growing more angry by the second.
"Yeah really."
Pietro then began a charge towards the basket from the right. Evan stood in his way, but as he moved to match his speed the speed demon's quick reflexes purposely tripped him up. Evan fell to the floor as Pietro went in for the easy lay-up shot.
"Too slow spiky," taunted Pietro as he passed the ball back at Evan.
"You did that on purpose!" replied Evan with an enraged tone.
"Yeah, what are ya gonna do about it huh? Impale me? Here? In school and in front of all these people?" said Pietro with smirk knowing how tempted Evan was to do just that.
Evan could feel the spikes wanting to jump out of his skin and cut this hothead to bits, but he knew he couldn't do it in plain sight for everybody to see.
"Thought not," said Pietro as he snidely walked away.
Lance Alvers was never one to take shit from anybody, so he was especially eager to confront any one of the new X-men about their last encounter. He remembered the bitter defeat and how Mystique had hounded him to no end about it. Lance was always thought of as the leader of the group when Mystique wasn't around. Even though Pietro protested this to no end, the Brotherhood still looked up to Lance to be their effective field leader. It was for these reasons he was itching for revenge against the six other mutant teens.
As he stood near his locker, he noticed a familiar face down the hall. It was the girl he had fought against, Kitty Pryde. He couldn't help but wince slightly at the memory of what she did last time. He thought he had beaten her, he thought had won, but then she came up out of the ground...And introduced her foot to his balls. It still hurt to think about it.
Lance made his way towards the young mutant as she put her books in her locker. She looked very different in comparison to the last time he saw her. Last time she looked like a starving war-refugee and was nothing but skin and bones. Her clothes use to be dirty, raggedy, and old. Now she was actually wearing decent clothes and actually had some meat on her bones. She was still thin, but it was nothing compared to what she looked like last time. It looked as though she had been doing some serious exercise back at that mansion. She wore makeup that bought out her face more and her hair wasn't nearly as greasy or messy as before. She almost looked like a normal valley girl. Through all this, Lance couldn't help but find her quite attractive...But he tried to dispense that thought as he approached her.
"Hey, remember me?" said Lance as he walked up to her.
Kitty turned to see the familiar boy before her.
"Hey...You're that guy from the Brotherhood that attacked me!" said Kitty in a slightly defensive tone.
"Lance Alvers, but most folks know me as Avalanche," replied Lance causally, choosing not to use the direct approach.
"Well I wish I could say that it's nice to meet you Lance, but after last time I doubt that's a possibility," replied Kitty dryly.
'Whoa, feisty...I like that in a girl,' thought Lance, for he couldn't help but laugh at her attitude towards him, even if it was embittered.
"You've changed," said Lance looking up and down her body, which was definitely a far cry from the bare boned form he remembered from their first encounter.
"You haven't," replied Kitty who was beginning to feel a bit uncomfortable at the way he looked at her, however Lance seemed to pick up on this.
"Come on, just because I'm with the Brotherhood doesn't mean we can't share a decent conversation," said Lance flashing her a smile, hoping that would loosen her up.
"Yeah, like I believe that," replied Kitty, but the hostile sound in her voice had waned. She was unable to discern whether or not Lance was being sincere.
Lance walked in closer, causing Kitty to feel a lot more uncomfortable. Lance didn't seem to pick this up, he just took it as a sign that he was succeeding even though this wasn't the kind of encounter he had planned.
"What about you, huh? I've told you my name, the least you can do is tell me yours," said Lance trying not to sound hostile.
Kitty was silent for a moment, she didn't want be this close to him. However he wasn't being nearly as confrontational as she had expected. It did relieve her a bit, but she just couldn't get past the memories of their first fight.
"It's Kitty, now leave me alone," she finally said as she turned to walk away, but soon found herself being trailed by Lance.
"What that's it? Nothing more to tell me?"
"There's nothing more to tell," responded Kitty in a tone that was asking him to leave.
"Come on Kitty, just..." but before Lance could finish, he was cut off by a voice from behind.
"I think the lady wants you to leave now."
Lance turned around and saw Kurt standing behind him looking quite angry, but he remained undaunted.
"And just who are you?" replied Lance with a stern gaze.
"A friend," replied Kurt as he continued to stare the older boy down.
Sensing the tense nature in the air, Kitty stepped in.
"Let it go Kurt, let's just leave," said Kitty as she walked up beside him.
Kurt gave Lance one last terse look before they both then turned away from Lance and began to walk away.
Lance was left slightly dumbstruck by the encounter, for it had turned out nothing like he had planned. He had originally thought he was going to confront Kitty about the first fight they had been a part of, but she turned it around and for some reason Lance found himself playing along...And liking it. He smiled slightly as he looked back at her, feeling he still succeeded in some way other than he had planned.
The final bell for the first day had rung and all of the students eagerly flooded out. Scott and Jean were among them, casually walking towards the car to meet the others and talking about their first day. It had been nothing like they had expected, which was a pleasant surprise for all of them. Scott and Jean continued to walk and talk about this and that, and soon Jean linked her arms around Scott's...A gesture they had done for years, only now it seemed to have a bit more meaning. However, they were not alone as they got closer to the parking lot. From a distance, Todd Tolensky and Freddy Dukes watched them with a great sense of bitterness.
"You ready Freddy?" said Todd with a smirk as he saw them walk through the parking lot.
"Yeah...I'm ready," said Blob eager for some payback after last time.
Todd began to hop towards them, hiding his position behind other cars. Blob stood back further, hoping to surprise them more. Suddenly, Scott and Jean stopped walking.
"Jean...Do you smell something?" said Scott sniffing the air.
"What do you..." but Jean was cut off when she picked up the presence of two menacing other teens. The one thing that bothered her, however, was that she felt she had sensed this same presence before.
"Sup X-geeks," said a voice.
Scott and Jean turned towards the source of the voice and saw the greasy-haired Todd Tolensky, perched on top of a van. Even though Scott hadn't seen him last time, he recognized the voice.
"Oh great, you again," said Jean in an exasperated tone. She had remembered this kid from their last fight.
"You bet cha! You didn't think I was gonna let you all get away with what you did last time now did ya?" said Todd hopping off the van and in front of them.
"Hey, first of all YOU attacked US," said Scott in an annoyed tone. "What did you expect us to do?"
"Excuses excuses," replied Toad casually.
Then, a new presence made himself known and approached the duo from behind.
"You think your stupid X-club can go up against the Brotherhood?" said Blob.
Scott and Jean remained undaunted by the presence of the two mutants, but they were beginning to worry about what this confrontation was leading up to. They both seemed bent on an all out melee.
"Look, we don't wanna fight. Not here, not now," said Jean
"Well that's too bad girly, cause we're not leavin' till we get a little payback," replied Freddy cracking his knuckles.
Just then, four others joined the tense situation.
"Back off big boy," said Evan as he, Rogue, Kurt, and Kitty came up behind them.
"I think you guys are outnumbered now," said Kitty with smirk.
This time, it was Todd and Fred who were surrounded. They showed a bit more concern this time since they couldn't defeat them as a whole last time.
"Now are you gonna leave, or is this going to get ugly?" said Scott.
"We're not leaving," said a new voice. It was Lance followed by Wanda and Pietro.
"Oh, great the whole party's here," said Rogue as she and Wanda exchanged glances.
"You think you guys are so hot? Well now this party's gonna rock," said Lance as he prepared to cause a little tremor to get things going.
Both the Brotherhood and the X-men looked poised to fight it out, but just then Principle Kelly stepped in, for he had seen this incident escalate from afar.
"Hey! What is going one here?" yelled Kelly as he stepped in between the two opposing groups.
"Nothing that concerns you," responded Pietro.
"Oh I think it definitely concerns me Mr. Maximoff," replied Principle Kelly in an angry, authoritative tone. "This is on school grounds and I will not tolerate any fighting! If you have a problem with that you can discuss in detention after I inform your guardian!"
That did it, for the Brotherhood knew that if Mystique found out about this she would be furious. Kelly didn't scare them, but Mystique was another story. After this they appeared to stand down.
"Now, are we gonna have a problem?" said Principle Kelly.
"No...We're not," said Lance bitterly. "Come on guys, let's go."
The Brotherhood then walked off, but not after sending angry glances back towards the X-men. After they were out of sight, Kelly addressed the X-men.
"I don't care what kind of influence Xavier has...But I will not allow you all to act above the rules. Now I'm going to let you all off with a warning this time, but rest assured...I will be keeping an eye on all of you."
Principle Kelly's voice was stern and full of anger. He didn't seem to care that it wasn't them who had started the fight. As he walked off, he looked back at them with great suspicion...And the rest of the X-men could sense it.
"Looks like we made a friend," commented Evan sarcastically.
Back at the mansion the Professor had been told of the incident with the Brotherhood earlier. It was far too close to being an all out fight in broad daylight. Xavier hadn't told them the Brotherhood was going to be there, but he didn't know Mystique would send them there himself. It was the first big challenge that they would have to face outside of the mansion. As they all gathered in the living room to discuss it, there was still a great sense of uncertainty among them.
"So what do we do about it now Professor?" asked Kitty. "They're not going to stop hounding us."
"Yeah, and from the looks of it, they couldn't care less if mutants were exposed to the world," added Rogue.
"Yeah not to mention Principle Kelly. It's only been the first day and ve're already on his bad side," said Kurt.
The Professor looked at each one of his students. He briefly contemplated his response, for he knew they now looked up to him for all their answers.
"The issue of the Brotherhood is not one to be taken lightly," said the Professor. "They may very well indeed try to pick more fights in the future. I'm proud that you all showed restrained in using your powers against them, but in the future you may be tempted a lot more. Given your circumstances, I believe you all handled it well in not letting the situation erupt in to a fight. Today was your first big challenge and there is no doubt that more, even greater challenges await. But I have great confidence in all of you and I trust you all that you will make the right decisions, for the future of mutants may very well depend on it."
The rest of the students couldn't help but be moved by the Professor's words, he had shown them so much and now they had to put what he had taught them all to good use.
"That's a lot to trust us with Professor, but I think we can do it...That's what makes us X-men," said Scott.
Back at the Brotherhood, Mystique had found out about their little fight. Needless to say, she was a lot more unforgiving than the Professor.
"You IDIOTS!" yelled Mystique as the teens sat wearily in the living room. "I told you all NOT to engage them in school and what do you do? YOU PICK A DAMN FIGHT!"
"Hey, it's not our fault Myst..." began Lance, but he was immediately cut off.
"YES IT WAS! Don't insult me, I saw everything!" bellowed the angry shape-shifter.
"So what do you expect us to do huh? Just sit around and watch them? After what they did to us?" said Pietro defiantly.
Mystique gave the speed demon a stern glare that would've melted steel.
"For now, yes...Get to know them," said Mystique addressing all of them now. "It is vital that you all know your enemy, because when the time comes to face them again...You all had better be ready. And rest assured that time will come soon...Very soon."
AN: Stay tuned! The beginning of some major love triangles is coming in the next few chapters. And stay tuned if you want to know what Mystique meant by those last words. And don't forget to review! Send them to me at email@example.com or post them on fanfiction.net. Until next time, best wishes to you all.

Slow week at Dew Nestry's. Sorry about that.
But! I wrote a short webcomic review, am going to write some other post (haven't decided what about, yet), and am going to publish another SinFest Saturday which I already made. (To those of you who haven't noticed, SinFest Saturdays are always published at 2100).
Anyway, let's get to the review:
As some of you may know, I love fictional crossovers and remakes of old classics (especially dark ones, such as Wicked, even though I haven't yet read that), and I even intend writing my own dark remake of The Smurfs and perhaps Little Red Riding Hood (I'm currently trying to see how I'm gonna introduce her the the Third Dimension). I think the new movie got me to watch the old show of The Smurfs, and then to decide to write my own dark version of it – but I don't really remember what got me thinking about rewriting Little Red Riding Hood. Perhaps it were this drawing, of which I'm rather fond (even though I don't like its sexual tone), but I don't remember where I've seen it. Perhaps somewhere at DamnLOL (they don't deserve a link).
Anyhow, I started reading about Little Red, and looked for other people's remakes of it. I found two webcomics that sounded interesting: Ever After, and No Rest For the Wicked (Wikipedia pages here and here respectively). I haven't read the second one yet, but the first one focuses on a mentally disturbed Little Red Riding Hood. I couldn't ask for more, could I?
Ever After has two downsides, and some of you may have noticed the second one: it's black and white. She's more like Little Grey Riding Hood, now. I could have been perfect if everything else but her cloak and hood were black and white, and then her redness would have been magnified, but unfortunately, the creator of the webcomic (known as Endling) didn't do it. O, well.
Anyway, the first problem is a bit more relevant: the webcomic has fifty seven pages, and hasn't been updated for over a year, which kinda sucks. But! in the Wikipedia page it is said that the comic is on hold because of Endling's other project, and on his deviant page he said that he has finished said project. But it's been twenty two days since then, so… you can't really know what's gonna happen. He uploaded, six days ago, a drawing of a character that's supposed to be in the webcomic eventually – so perhaps things are moving.
About the comic itself: well, I read the fifty seven pages (plus another ten of a side-story) and the story hasn't yet developed much, so there isn't much to say. As a beginning, it's great – really makes you want more.
Ever After is set in a world called Grimmoire – the land of all fairy-tales, and blah blah blah. A world in which, lately, more and more disturbances and 'incidents' occurred, by all sorts of nasty creatures, such as witches, dragons and trolls – creatures who are too different than the average fairy in order to fit in society.
Consequently, a most wealthy businessman who goes by the name of 'Humpty Dumpty', decided, on his own account, to establish the Everafter Maximum Security Asylum and Home for the Fantastically Traumatised, an institution meant to make the realm of fairy-tales a happier place. The means to do so were horrifyingly simple – it simply got rid of the 'less flattering residents' as they call it, and gave them a well deserved rehabilitation. 'Can they just do that?' you probably ask – I sure did – well, apparently.
The execution of this policy were done by none else than the Big Bad Wolf. And, sure enough, being terrified from the possibility of being kidnapped by this awful entity, people behaved themself. But, you are not called a big bad wolf for being a little naughty flower. Eventually, the Wolf stopped caring whether he were taking or destroying, and whether the people and cities he came to were good or evil. The Everafter faculty obviously tried to catch him, but the Wolf was their main executor for reason. But, of course, everyone leaves survivors – even the Big Bad Wolf, and survivors talk…
So, if they couldn't catch the source of the problem, they at least silenced those who knew who it were, and who unleashed it, in order to save their necks.
Ever After focuses – or at least has been so far – on the story of one girl, one girl who needed to be silenced. But that's not her only problem.
It is true that so far the side of the 'bad guys' – i.e. the witches', the trolls', the dragons', and all those creatures – hasn't been shown, but Ever After barley began. I recommend starting reading it, and then, well, hoping that it would be continued. But even if it doesn't, what's been written so far is pretty good too.

As Alaskans approach a new legislative session in January, we are facing a number of important issues. Our Alaska Legislators are being asked to make important public policy decisions that will affect the course of Alaska for years to come. Resolving these issues as well as keeping the pulse on constituents is not always an easy job.
On Wednesday, December 12 from noon to 1:30 at the Dena'ina Center,
Speaker of the House Mike Chenault and Senate President Charlie Huggins will keynote this Commonwealth North event and then in table discussions you will have the opportunity to discuss key issues with your elected officials. At last year's Legislator Meet and Greet Program, 28 Legislators joined us for an outstanding luncheon which received very favorable responses from both Legislators and our members.
This is not a campaign, political debate, or cross-examination. It is an opportunity to discuss key issues with well-informed, thoughtful Alaskans.

I saw my grandfather stare into the dark room, poorly lit, and tell the same five stories again and again. And I saw remnants of a life in the form of a house and photographs. Her, with an elephant, feeding it. She was beautiful. She had a life of sorrow. She lost a child. She lost her sight. She wore pajamas everyday once she stopped working and moved to the outskirts. And we ate lunch every week or so. She used to live next to Al Capone's brother, my grandfather often joked. Her and the Capone brothers. Her life started during the Depression. See her, at a national park, shot from a perfect angle. Odd to see a life in a slideshow at a funeral home. Odd to see her lying there. The vultures are already picking at her life. My aunts all have long necks. It's hard to understand real feelings and much easier to label them as fake. To designate them: not-worth-contemplation. And I do this too often; I'm too cynical. My grandfather married her when she was seventeen. He, now, peers through the room at their cat. He told me that there is nothing. I don't even know how old she was when she died. My professor asked me and I lied. But, she gave me money each of my birthdays. She was there for eighteen of them. When I was younger, she would take me and buy me toys. I cried last night about her. My father dreams about her. My grandfather still seems to be half himself. And still speaks in partial thoughts and abridged narratives. She died in September and we all got drunk on Christmas Eve. Maybe this is mourning. But it's March now.
Please listen. New track off a new "album"

CIA students get hands-on experience with an award-winning initiative.
Cleveland Institute of Art students are a designing force in a South Euclid program that reinvests in and reimagines distressed property.
Kate Steinmeyer ('10) and Julianne Rodriguez ('13) have partnered with the South Euclid Green Neighborhoods Initiative, providing interior design work for a program that rehabilitates foreclosed and abandoned bungalows.
Green Neighborhoods was funded by an $800,000 grant in 2009 from the Department of Housing and Urban Development. Another $300,000 came from the First Suburbs Consortium, an advocacy group made up of elected officials from mature and inner-ring suburbs.
The city has focused on two avenues to help with the problems caused by the housing crisis, says Sally Martin, South Euclid Housing Manager. One is the startup of five community gardens. The other is the purchase of abandoned property, refurbishing homes (and in one case building a new house), and selling them to new owners.
The goal, Martin says, is to "reimagine the post-war bungalow using green building technologies, but also looking at them in a holistic way." Hence, the program considers whether a home can accommodate first-floor living possibilities, for instance, or whether to create a mow-free yard.
Five vacant homes have been rehabilitated through Green Neighborhoods so far, and Steinmeyer — now an environmental designer at Chute Gerdeman in Columbus — tackled the interiors of the first four. The project gave her lots of insight into "how a residential project like this is run: The behind-the-scenes meetings with city officials, seeing contractors working onsite, and getting to be a part of the action," she says.
She found the real-world experience a nice break from school, learned about the rigors of sustainability standards, and met local contracting and source-material professionals. Her work on a home on Wilmington Road was especially fun, she says, because after selecting all the materials for inside, she also furnished and staged it for marketing purposes. (The woman who bought the house loved it enough to buy furnishings along with the house.)
Rodriguez did the job on the fifth rehabbed house and is working on a sixth — a new house being built in place of one that need to be torn down.
She's had the thrill of seeing plans flower into reality, and the real-world experience of limited funds. "The budget was really tight," Rodriguez says, adding that she had $1,500 to spend on lighting for the entire house, and $2,500 for flooring. Martin said that collaboration was embedded in the Green Neighborhoods plan, and CIA seemed like an obvious choice.
"Having young designers help us reimagine our post-war bungalows for a modern buyer made perfect sense," she says. "We have been thrilled with the results. The sales values speak for themselves."
On streets where average home prices are just over $50,000, the Green Neighborhoods homes have sold for more than double that amount. The Green Neighborhoods Initiative won a 2011 Crain's magazine Emerald Award honoring champions of sustainability.

(12/05/13) - The mother of a murdered 2-year-old Flint boy, already charged in his abuse and death, has been ordered to undergo testing for competency and criminal responsibility. Twenty-three-year-old Crystal Shelton-Randolph was briefly back in court Thursday morning. Her son, Jordan Shelton, died at the hospital on Nov. 22. She faces charges of felony murder, child abuse and first-degree criminal sexual conduct. Her attorney says she's unwilling or unable to cooperate in her own defense and is emotionally unstable.

Biological Laws: Analogies and Allometries (Stellenbosch Institute for Advanced Study Funded)
Project Leader: Mark Colyvan
The question of whether there are laws in ecology is important for a number of reasons. If, as some have suggested, there are no ecological laws, this would seem to distinguish ecology from other branches of science, such as physics. This project aims at clearing up some of the confusions in both the biological literature and in the philosophical literature on laws and allometries. The focus of the project is a defence of the view that the various metabolic allometries can be seen as legitimate ecological laws.

This morning we once again start off with patchy fog, especially south of I-20. The fog will give way to a thick blanket of morning clouds which will burn off by the early afternoon allowing for a few peeks of sunshine with a high of 85°. Winds will be out of the south between 5-15 mph. Still watching the system that will arrive Saturday late in the afternoon and early evening that could spark some severe weather.

What are the weights on these? I have been seriously contemplating a full-sized lightweight tripod recently, as a more functional alternative to my Gorillapod. I shoot on a NEX 5 (which I absolutely love), and could definitely benefit from a tallish tripod.
Added weights to the post - as weighed on my scale.

European migration, national origin and long-term economic development in the US
AbstractHave Irish, German or Italian settlers arriving in the US at the turn of the 20th century left an institutional trace which determines economic development differences to this day? Does the national origin of migrants matter for long-term development? This paper explores whether the distinct geographical settlement patterns of European migrants according to national origin affected economic development across US counties. It uses micro-data from the 1880 and 1910 censuses in order to identify where migrants from different nationalities settled and then regresses these patterns on current levels of economic development, using both OLS and instrumental variable approaches. The analysis controls for a number of factors which would have determined both the attractiveness of different US counties at the time of migration, as well as current levels of development. The results indicate that while there is a strong and positive impact associated with overall migration, the national origin of migrants does not make a difference for the current levels of economic development of US counties.

Just downloaded and installed but cannot get past the username/password bit. If I input the correct username/password it returns briefly to the previous text screen then back to the username screen. If I input the incorrect username/password it just returns me to the username screen.
I've tried both graphical and text installs. It works well in virtualization and as a live usb
Never had a problem before.
Any ideas?
My #! Alpha 2 is getting a little slow now (too much going on) and I would like to get things speeded (sic|) up again.

The login works through tty but when there, startx doesn't, well, start x. Or does that only work as root?
Looks like it may be a Slim problem.
No, it's not locating lightdm. I knew I should never have started this tonight.
Anyway, #! Alpha 2 was excellen!!!
I'm on a dongle here and it won't go on-line without network manage up and running.
I'll try again in the morning with a reinstall of the iso onto the flash drive. The downloaded iso has a good md5sum so that's all tickety boo.
Many thanks VastOne for your help.
Take a look at ~/.xsession-errors when logging in through tty1

When you installed did you use your home directory from a previous install. I had that same problem when I used my home dir. I think it has something to do with the switch from gdm to slim.
If you have used your old /home then I had a similar problem & after much to-ing & fro-ing & a great deal of help on these forums, I did a clean install. Just couldn't find a way around the problem
I didn't say it was your fault... I said I was going to blame you.
To both of you, did you check if you had a ~/.xinitrc file? Cause if you don't, SLiM won't work
If you can't sit by a cozy fire with your code in hand enjoying its simplicity and clarity, it needs more work. --Carlos Torres
I am a #! forum moderator. Feel free to send me a PM with any question you have!
If you did use an existing /home on your install and used the same login name, it is possible it is a permissions issue
If that is what you did, you can run this from tty1 and it should correct the issue
login to tty1 then
sudo su
chown -R yourusername:yourusername /home/yourusername
Many thanks to VastOne, donkeyotay & kelean. I was indeed using the existing home partition and this conflicted with Slim. Copied, deleted and renewed.
I note that papnominal does recommend a clean install but I ignored him as I thought I knew better. What does he know, He's from Lincolnshire. Oh silly me.
Cheers one and all.
#! Alpha two is indeed now dead. Long live #! 10-2011125 (it just doesn't have the same ring)
DB, I was surprised to read you were still using Alpha-2, but it was a dandy little distro, wasn't it! Also happy to know you've got a fix on this.
If it ain't broke and all that. I also had quite a few customizations that I'll have to repeat (if I can remember how) with the new install including stuff not in the repos.
That's the problem with this forum, It gives you ideas above your station.
The joy of Linux.

The latest stable release of AOKP ROM – based on Ice Cream Sandwich Android 4.0 – is Milestone 6, and has been ported to the Verizon Galaxy S3 by XDA Forum Member beanstown106. AOKP ROM is famous for its inclusion of a high amount of customization options as well as improved performance over stock ROMs, as well as providing the pure Android experience without any custom OEM skins and bloatware.
Keep in mind that this is an unofficial port of AOKP and there may be a few bugs and issues present in the ROM, though mostly everything works fine and the ROM is suitable for daily use.

Generally when someone has a bad experience at a restaurant, they'll think they're ripped off so they don't leave a tip. Big deal, if the owner is so concerned about his waitresses, then he should pay them more. Raise the price of food if you have to! I would not step foot into this restaurant knowing he can't take the heat!

LUBBOCK, TX (KCBD) - Due to the faltering economy many industries are suffering right now, including one you might not have expected.
Jent's House of Music started in Lubbock in 1961, but after nearly 50 years in business it's now facing some very hard times.
Music is Billy Talerico's life and career, but lately he's seen the tone in business go flat. "There's got to be a way to revamp it, I believe it can happen, I believe it will happen - just how important is it, I think that's what everybody needs to see," said Jent's House of Music Road Rep Billy Talerico.
At Jent's House of Music on 34th Street, business has declined over the last few years. "You've got to eat, you've got to have a place to live, you've got to have transportation but you just don't have to have music. Hopefully people love it so much that they want it as a part of the lives and that's definitely our desire," said Jent's House of Music CEO Karen Jent Pollard.
Pollard says a lot of their larger instruments, like pianos and guitars, were financed. But their lender has since gone bankrupt leading to some instrument repossessions. Also, in the past year, half of their employees were let go and their three locations are down to two. "The closing down of Amarillo was really so tough," said Pollard.
It's an emotional journey she hopes will soon get better. "I'm of the opinion that everybody should have music in their life and every person should have that opportunity," said Pollard.
An opportunity to save the music, Talerico says is a must. "There's things that use to happen a long time ago that as far as educating the public about music education. It's not as creative as it used to be so we have to make changes and get the word out to everybody," said Talerico.
To help out Jent's House of Music a benefit concert is being held this weekend. You can attend the Jent's House of Music and Youth Outreach Prayer and Praise Concert on Saturday, March 21st from Noon to 8 p.m.
Stop by Jent's 2646 34th Street for free food and music. Donations will be welcome.

The shoulders are more ornamental than functional. You can get by just fine with 4 other pieces of season 4 gear. Not having season 4 shoulders wont make or break teams. The weapons on the other hand are a bit of a different story. The difference between season 2 and season 3 weapons are significant in many cases, and I would imagine the gap will widen with season 4.
If fair and equal is the goal, then I suppose the requirements on weapons does go against this. It creates a situation where those who have proven their skill are given a slight advantage over those who haven't yet done so. Those who were either late to start the arena grind, or perhaps even starting out with new alts for PvP have to display even more skill than those who came before them. It isn't impossible at all, but the barrier to entry certainly exists.

Notice how both the Mylo Xyloto and Ghost Stories albums end in a song about birds.
It's like it's tied in with Chris's wish/favorite superpower (to be able to fly) and the freedom of expression that the band feels.
This is called "Angry Birds Math"
I never thought about the similarities before but this makes so much sense.
What do you think?

WHO ARE THEY: During the second half of the 1970s and throughout the 1980s, Hall & Oates assaulted the masses with their blue-eyed Philadelphia soul and pop sound, scoring six No. 1 singles and six platinum albums in the process. Their hits from the '70s include "Sara Smile," "She's Gone" and "Rich Girl," but it was during the '80s that the duo really took off commercially. "Kiss On My List" became Hall & Oates' second No. 1 hit in 1980. In 1981, they released the album "Private Eyes," which contained two more No. 1 hits, the title track and "I Can't Go For That (No Can Do)." Hall & Oates continued to ride the wave of success and released "H20" in 1982, which sold more than 2 million copies and contained their biggest hit single, "Maneater," along with other hits such as "One on One" and "Family Man." 1984's "Big Bam Boom" contained the No. 1 hit "Out of Touch."
WHAT TO EXPECT: With their infectious pop melodies, soulful rhythms and straight-ahead approach, Hall & Oates were among the most consistent hitmakers of the late 1970s and early to mid-1980s. In addition to lighting up the pop charts, the duo proved to have great crossover appeal and consistently scored big on the R&B charts. Fans at the Borgata Hotel Casino & Spa can look forward to a show containing "Maneater," "Rich Girl" and "Kiss On My List." Concert-goers can expect to engage in plenty of sing-a-longs and dancing in the aisles.
WHAT'S NEW: In May, Hall & Oates performed on the reality show "The Voice."
WEBSITE: www.hallandoates.com
SHOW INFO: Tickets are $55, $65 and $85. The show begins 8 p.m. Saturday, Dec. 1, at the Event Center in Borgata.

Los Angeles Post-Punk Underground (c. 1977-1985)
An amazing, well-researched series of compilations digging deep into L.A.'s post-punk scene. Tons of rare stuff — I've barely heard of most of these bands, let alone heard them. The blog's author sez: "I'm having a hard time finding a truly accurate title for the comp, since many of the bands are from the county but from places with very particular scenes, like Pasadena and Long Beach, and a few are from outside of the city altogether (but within a two-hour drive). And to call these 'post-punk' bands is not entirely accurate; many of them are 'new wave,' 'darkwave,' 'deathrock,' 'art rock,' even something like 'freak folk.' Oh well." Whatever you want to call it, this is so cool. Thanks to Evan Kindley for the heads up.

One of my favourite ditties from Whaur The Pig Gaed On The Spree, the recent Drag City compilation of some of Alan Lomax's Scottish recordings. I have always had a soft spot for tales of swine and their hi-jinks, so it's not that surprising, I guess.

If there's nane o' them for a' there's a mixture o' the three.
An' there's nae a word o' beef, brose, sowens, sauty bannocks na'
Nor pancakes, paes eggs for them wi' dainty stammicks;

This is my take on the Elseworlds Amazonia Wonder Woman and Wonder Girl. It's not a replica of the actual costume by any means. I just took the Elseworld's concept of placing Wonder Woman in Victorian times and did my own thing and added a Wonder Girl as well. A lot of people also refer to this outfit as Steampunk or Gothic Wonder Woman.

Penn Badgley disses 'Gossip Girl'
Former CW heartthrob bites the hand that fed him for six solid seasons
By Sona Charaipotra Apr 30, 2013 2:25PM
Oh, no he didn't! Except, of course, it seems he did.
Former "Gossip Girl" heartthrob Penn Badgley made a dig against the long-running CW sudser this week while chatting with Salon.com about his new biopic, "Greetings from Tim Buckley," about the life of singer Jeff Buckley, who died at 30 of a drowning.
Badgley graduated from playing Brooklyn boy Dan Humphrey on "Gossip Girl" last December, when the show wrapped its sixth and final season. He's also done fluffy film fare like "The Stepfather" and "Easy A," and hopes the new (and unauthorized, for what it's worth) flick will help him shed the teeny bopper image. The film, he told Salon.com, is "not gonna win any awards, but I think it's the kind of thing that, 10 years from now, everybody will watch and it will have as much emotional resonance then."
Because clearly, "GG," with it's up-to-the-moment fashions and down and dirty melodrama, doesn't. But that's not all! "To be proud of something is a really nice feeling," Badgley added, clearly referencing the CW soap. "And it's a new feeling. And it's something I wanna keep going with. I can walk a little taller feeling that I don't have to be constantly apologizing for the work that I've done in the past."
Um, ouch. I guess Badgley fancies himself amongst the ranks of such former teen heartthrobs as Ryan Gosling and Leonardo DiCaprio, who started out on cheesy TV but eventually upgraded to meaty, Oscar-worthy turns. Alas, the Buckley biopic, which premiered in New York at the Tribeca Film Festival earlier this month, is unlikely to do the trick. And we don't have Oscar expectations for his next indie, the 2014-slated "Parts Per Billion," co-starring another former heartthrob, Josh Hartnett.
Interestingly, though, in the Salon.com interview, Badgley himself seemed to think he didn't quite hold his own in playing Jeff Buckley -- at least musically. "If I had to sing 'Lover, You Should've Come Over,' note for note, which a lot of people can do, even if they can't do it the way he did, that would have been a whole other thing," he said. "I'm so glad I didn't have to do that. Because then, people would've had to listen to 'Lover, You Should've Come Over,' [then] listen to mine, and be like, 'It's not as good.' And yeah, like of course it's not. That's why we're making a movie about Jeff Buckley."

Google is definitely a woman, it starts suggesting things before you can even finish your sentence.
That must mean Bing is a man, tries to convince people it's superior and does a horrible job with pleasing its user.
sassy-spoon lives up to its url
Oh snap!
This type of semantic squabbling is a very effective way of getting women to shut up. After all, most of us grew up learning that being a good girl was all about putting other people's feelings ahead of our own. We aren't supposed to say what we think if there's a chance it might upset somebody else or, worse, make them angry. So we stifle our speech with apologies, caveats and soothing sounds. We reassure our friends and loved ones that "you're not one of those men who hate women".
What we don't say is: of course not all men hate women. But culture hates women, so men who grow up in a sexist culture have a tendency to do and say sexist things, often without meaning to. We aren't judging you for who you are but that doesn't mean we're not asking you to change your behaviour. What you feel about women in your heart is of less immediate importance than how you treat them on a daily basis.
You can be the gentlest, sweetest man in the world yet still benefit from sexism. That's how oppression works.

Oh man that stretch over the boobs when in a button-down shirt is such a real struggle.

So, detractors, lemme see if I've got this straight. Patrick Troughton wanted this. Peter Davison wants this. Colin Baker wants this. Carole Ann Ford wants this. Louise Jameson wants this. Freema Agyeman wants this. Matt Smith wants this. Karen Gillan wants this. And now we have word that Sydney Newman, attributed with giving the show its lead's name and basic mode of transport—the same man, I remind you, who hired a female showrunner in nineteen sixty-fucking-three—wanted this.
And somehow demanding a female Doctor is appropriation.
Here's the original source for that fun fact. What I find most interesting is not just that Sydney Newman wanted the Doctor to be a woman, but that he wasn't interested in making the female Doctor a gimmick. His letter says:
At a later stage Doctor Who should be metamorphosed into a woman. This requires some considerable thought – mainly because I want to avoid a flashy, Hollywood Wonder Women because this kind of heroine with no flaws is a bore. Given more time than I have now, I can create such a character.
Newman wanted a strong female character in every sense. He wanted her to be interesting, he wanted her to be complex, and he wanted her to be flawed.
So for all of you naysayers who think that a female Doctor would never be more than a ratings gimmick:
#1) i will show this to every dude who is like 'the ORIGINAL CONCEPTION of the doctor was male' #well here's the guy who was making that character concept and SHOCKER he thought it could include a female character #2) it's slightly ironic that the original article refers to mr. newman as the show's creator #when credit is generally given equally between him and verity lambert (you know. a woman) #like yeah he's definitely a dr who creator (inasmuch as it HAS creators cos it is the work of many) but #you could totes read that op and not know that verity lambert existed #so thanx to the commenter who references her #yep female showrunner in 1963 how IS that #card-carrying member of the 60s who defense brigade right here sorry

Is it true that not shaving your armpits is unhygienic? Because I'm a girl, my mom opposes my decision to stop shaving for a while. She says not only that it's unhygienic, that it will make me sweat more and will ruin my shirts. Is any of that true?

The people of Trinity have found their voices and are using
them to fight off evil in their community.
"Some of the citizens feel like they don't have a voice and
drugs and crime affect us all," said Steve Jones, the chief of the Trinity
Police Department.
The Trinity Police Department had their second annual march
against crime and drugs Friday afternoon and was joined by nearly 300 people.
One of those people was Kaye Henry who had a home invasion
last November.
"It was pretty scary. They tried to shut my alarm off and
they kicked in one door and broke windows in the front of my house," said
She says the march is a way for people to see that the
police are also angry about the crime in the area.
"I think it gets them out in the community and let's people
realize that they are not the bad guys. They are trying to do good things for
the community," said Henry.
Students like Emily Ortiz, who is a member of the Trinity
Middle School Media Club, also showed their support.
"We thought it was a great idea for the community to do this
so we decided that we should film it," said Ortiz.
Most of the Trinity area schools let students out early on
Friday so they could participate in the march. Gillian Campbell, the principal
at Lansberry Elementary School, says she let students out an hour early.
"It's important for us to all come together and support our
community in this fight against drugs. It is a good lesson for them to get
involved in their community as well as to get to know their local police
officers and know that they are there to help us all," said Campbell.
The three-mile march started at the Trinity Community Center
and circled around areas where crime has increased.
"We're going to go right down into some of the areas where
just today I arrested a guy that bought a crack rock," said Jones.
Jones said that he saw some improvement with local drug
addicts from last year's march, and hopes this year's march influences some
"I actually saw some people that had a drug problem and
those people now have seemed to really be cleaning their lives up and I'm
pretty proud of those people," said Jones.
Lyle Stubbs, the Mayor of Trinity even made an appearance at
the march.
"It's great. This is the second year. We had a good turnout
last year and it looks like we are going to have a better one this year," said Stubbs.
But Jones says the march isn't about recognition; it's about
getting rid of crime.
"This is something for people in our community to come
together and get out and march and say 'hey! We don't want you. We don't want
you in our community. We don't want you around us. If you're going to do that
stuff go somewhere else,"' said Jones.
