WESTON, Wis (WSAU) Everest Metro police say the case of a burnt-out classic car is arson. The 1960 black Ford Thunderbird was reported stolen in September. Two weeks later the car was found engulfed in flames near County Road N in Wausau. Police now believe that fire was intentionally set.
A neighbor told investigators they'd head a series of loud booms just before the fire.
No one's ever been charged in the case. Anyone with information should call Everest-Metro police at 715-359-4204.

This was not the look of victory, it was the despair of lost mystique.
Yes, Las Vegas judges Glenn Trowbridge and Dave Moretti delivered Manny Pacquiao a crowd-stunning majority-decision victory over Juan Manuel Marquez Saturday night at the MGM Grand.
But Pacquiao's reactions spoke of something different.
If you saw the fight, you understand.
While the 38-year-old Marquez briefly basked in the celebration of an apparent triumph after the 12th round, lifting his right fist to the air as if to forever puncture the cloud of close-call shortcomings versus Pacquiao, the Filipino superstar retreated to his corner to kneel and pray.
By executing a superior counterpunching display that defused Pacquiao's aggressive style and subjected the world welterweight champion to a routine of punches in the face, Marquez accomplished so much.
He gained a measure of redemption, revenge and was at his best on his biggest stage yet.
Marquez wasn't around to see it, but Pacquiao revealed the hollowness of his 15th consecutive "victory," showing up at his post-fight news conference as a beaten man.
It wasn't due to the discomfort of 28 stitches to close the cut he suffered in a 10th-round head butt.
It was because he failed to please his fans, because he was subjected to a chorus of boos after being named the winner and because he again couldn't figure out Marquez.
"He's always backing off and waiting for me to create action," Pacquiao said. "And when I do, he counters. It's not easy to create action, with him waiting for a good shot."
Pacquiao was asked if he was disappointed in himself. Had he failed to follow the fight plan?
"No, I'm not disappointed," Pacquiao said, his people trying to get him off the stage rapidly to avoid dwelling in the down mood. "It's just my feet."
Pacquiao trainer Freddie Roach said his fighter was complaining of cramping in his arches, a situation Roach vows to correct with the top medical specialists possible.
Now Pacquiao has to figure out something else complex: What to do next.
It took all of a few minutes for Pacquiao promoter Bob Arum to admit Marquez was entitled to an immediate rematch in May. After getting as much as $10 million for this bout — dependent upon pay-per-view income — Marquez is positioned to get at least that again.
But does Pacquiao really want any part of Marquez again after three tight wars?
Oscar De La Hoya, who helps promote unbeaten Floyd Mayweather Jr., said the time has come for Pacquiao to be more assertive in choosing his own path, not leaving it entirely up to his promotional team.
"My advice to Manny is, 'You're the fighter. You're the boss. You call the shots,' " De La Hoya said. "If Manny wants Floyd, there's nothing from stopping that fight from happening.

Group Targets 'Christ In Christmas' Sign
December 14, 2011 by UPI - United Press International, Inc.
PITMAN, Pa., Dec. 14 (UPI) — A national group advocating separation of church and state says a Pennsylvania town's sign reading, "Keep Christ in Christmas" violates the Constitution.
Andrew Seidel, a consultant with the Freedom From Religion Foundation in Wisconsin, said a Pitman, Pa., resident complained to his group about having to pass the downtown sign located near a group of shops, every day on his way to work, The Philadelphia Inquirer reported Tuesday.
Seidel said his group believes the borough is violating the U.S. Constitution by allowing the sign to promote Christmas and Christianity on public property.
"'Keep Christ in Christmas' is so blatantly an endorsement of a single religious view," he said. "You can't be free to believe what you believe if the government is picking a corner, taking a side. It makes all non-adherents feel like political outsiders, and it's not OK for government to make people feel they don't belong."
The sign, which is sponsored by Catholic fraternal organization the Knights of Columbus, has been hung in downtown Pitman annually for several years.
"If you took a poll, I doubt you'd find many people against it," said Dennis Merlino, an official with the Knights of Columbus in nearby Mantua. "I don't know why it is that people think that because you put up a sign, you're against everything else."

Engraving of occultists John Dee and Edward Kelley "in the act of invoking the spirit of a deceased person" (1806)
Engraving of occultists John Dee and Edward Kelley "in the act of invoking the spirit of a deceased person" (1806)
Edward Kelley was an ambiguous figure in Renaissance occultism, a self-declared spirit medium who worked with John Dee in his magical investigations. Besides the professed ability to summon spirits in a crystal ball, which Dee so valued, Kelley claimed to possess the secret of transmuting base metals into gold. Dee was a mathematician, astronomer, astrologer, occultist, navigator, imperialist and consultant to Queen Elizabeth I. He devoted his life to the study of alchemy, divination and Hermetic philosophy, straddling the worlds of science and magic just as they were becoming distinguishable.
Kelley approached Dee in 1582. Dee had unsuccessfully been trying to contact angels with a crystal ball but Kelley professed the ability to do so, impressing Dee with his first trial. They subsequently devoted huge amounts of time and energy to these "spiritual conferences". A year later, Kelley appeared with an alchemical book and some red powder which, he claimed, he had been led to by a "spiritual creature". With the powder Kelley believed he could prepare a red "tincture" which would allow him to transmute base metals into gold. He reportedly demonstrated its power a few times over the years.
Dee and Kelley lived a nomadic life in Europe, seeking the patronage of various monarchs but ultimately failing to impress. Eventually their involvement in necromancy caught the attention of the Catholic Church, and they were required to defend themselves in a hearing with the papal nuncio. Dee handled the interview with tact, but Kelley infuriated the nuncio by criticising the "poor conduct of many … priests." The nuncio noted in a letter that he was tempted to toss Kelley out of the window, defenestration being a common tradition in Prague at the time.
Then, possibly as an act to end the fruitless spiritual conferences so that he could concentrate on alchemy, which was beginning to make him wealthy, Kelley revealed to Dee that the angels had ordered them to share everything they had—including their wives. Anguished, Dee broke off the conferences, though he did share his wife. This "cross-matching" occurred in 1587, as noted in Dee's diary. Nine months later Dee's wife gave birth to a son and although there was speculation that the child was actually Kelley's, it was raised as Dee's.
Though it seems the two shared a basically cooperative and innocent partnership, it was often characterised as "quarrelsome" and "tense". Kelley left Dee at Trebon in 1589, possibly to join the emperor's court at Prague and Dee returned to England. They did not see each other again.

Cycling nerdy girl.
I am an art student in San Diego.
I work at a bakery. Yes I get free bread.
Non-preachy vegan :-)
So you don't have a humidifier hack: Just slowly boil water on the stove all day
It moistens up the space. Even places far away from your stove.
(For background on why I'm doing crazy things like this. Go here and here.)
So you don't have a humidifier hack: Wet towel
In light of recent events and counsel (the whole space heater is destroying my throat thing), and the fact that I don't have a humidifier and may not be able to get one for a little bit, I have come up with the following hack:
Put a big sopping wet towel near your space heater.
Don't put it too close to your space heater (fire, etc).
Don't put it too far (you want the water to go into the air).
I'm lucky because my space heater is long and skinny and rotates, and i have a weird chair with holes in that I put the wet towel on, but yeah… you may have to play around a little bit. AND this works.
Food nerdery: The key to good oatmeal is salt
Was reminded of this this morning during a breakfast gathering.
Oatmeal can taste really amazing.
Oatmeal can be really filling. (Compare to pancakes which make you uncomfortably full, and then hungry for "real food" 2 hours later.)
Oatmeal's secret weapon is salt. Bad oatmeal tastes "bland." And then your instinct is to sweeten it up. And then it tastes bland and sweet. You still might wanna sweeten it, but you can't forget the salt. Ideally it's cooked with salt, not added at the very end. (But even salting at the end will probably make it taste way better. Just stir it in really well.)
Also, this morning I had So Delicious (coconut creamer) French Vanilla as an oatmeal "topper" that a vegan friend recommended. WHOA. It was great. As the only sweetener, it was magical. Anybody, vegan or not, would love this. Very rich.

By far my favorite song by the inimitable Jonathan Coulton (http://www.jonathancoulton.com). This was a weird one, because I recorded and mixed eve…
This is song number 6 out of 8, leading up to Christmas! Hope you enjoy it.
Day 5!
Tumblr, it'd be nice to go drinking with you.
It's day 4. Let's link to the fourth song!
Once again, the original composer is Jonathan Coulton of http://www.jonathancoulton.com . This is, as I'm sure you've deducted, just my take on one of his (many) great songs.
Song 2 out of 8 is uploaded and ready to be consumed one way or another!
I'd like to thank you guys for the positive response the first one get. I debated with myself for the longest time whether to even upload these, since I'm generally pretty hard on myself and don't really care for most anything I create, but I eventually decided that the music meant enough for me on a personal level to justify sharing it with others.
These first few songs were recorded in late October/early November, when I was pretty much at rock bottom, so I suppose they have that kind of roughness about them overall. They are as they are, basically.
One of you mentioned that you didn't know I could sing or play the guitar, and I think that's fair enough — I'm still not sure that I can! But you've got to start somewhere, and while my guitar playing is probably much better than my singing, I definitely lack musicians willing to help me with the singing part of recording in my immediate vicinity. And, again, this was more a way to stay sane for me, and wasn't conceived with the intention of sharing with ANYONE, let alone EVERYONE!
Again, thank you for the support - It means the world to me.
Those of you who don't dig it, that's perfectly fine too. I just hope my stuff didn't make your day WORSE!
All the best
- Johan
Hi Tumblr!
Long time, no see.
Alright, so some of you might know that I've been going through some pretty sad and rough times this year. Eventually this led to me not drawing or painting, and essentially just sitting around, staring at the ceiling all day.
At one point, I picked up one of my guitars and decided to fool around on it a bit, as I'd been listening to a lot of music and just generally wallowing in that whole thing. Eventually, after a week or so, I recorded some of the songs I was playing on my phone, just to hear what it sounded like. Obviously, it wasn't great, but it certainly gave me the will to try and make an acoustic one-take sounding recording.
I really enjoyed the process of doing that, and repeated it to the point where I'm now sitting on 8 songs that I plan to upload to soundcloud for you guys to listen to and share (if you want). I know they're a bit rough around the edges, and that is certainly intentional, as that was the sound I was going for. That said though, I suspect that over the past two months I've been doing this, I've gained some understanding of (very basic) production methods and recording, which might lead to the songs sounding better overall as I release them.
This is the first song I recorded after not playing the guitar for years, and is a Jonathan Coulton cover. The guy is a huge inspiration overall, and I am absolutely enamored with his music. Thankfully, when I approached him about uploading cover(s) of his music, he agreed, and made no claim towards me compensating him, so long as the original song was attributed to him. What a guy!
So, yeah, I'll be releasing a song every day up until December 24th. Be sure to share them if you like them! Maybe I'll get super self-conscious and delete the whole thing before new years', since the songs have strong personal meaning to me, so you might actually want to download them too if you want to keep 'em.
All the best,
- Johan
It's about goddamn time I updated this Tumblr. Here are some quick color sketches from the last few weeks. I apologize that I haven't been keeping my Tumblr updated but, truth be told, I really haven't been painting as much as I should, and what I HAVE done is under NDA.
Still, hope someone finds these a little fun to look at. All the best to all y'all!
You know VERY WELL what time it is!
This image is amazing :o
Oh thank you kindly! I'm glad you found something you liked among my paintings! Value studies can be very handy indeed sometimes. Not to mention they can be a lot of fun as well.

This is an archive post. The Duct Tape Smart Case is now known as the Duct Tape Magnetic Jacket. Please visit www.ducttapecase.com for all the latest information about this project.
When I learned that the iPad 2 utilized embedded magnets for the "magical" smart covers I knew that I wanted to re-design the original Duct Tape Folio into a more elegant and refined design.
My design goal for this was to build a full folio style case that utilized the magnetic system to secure the iPad to the case and of course for it to be stylish even though the primary material is duct tape.
Although the original iPad Duct Tape Folio worked well it did have a few negatives:
• I based the core out of posterboard (mostly because that's what I had lying around the house) which worked okay but it was a little too flexible and the duct tape showed off every little dent or crease.
• I never really liked the elastic corners for securing the iPad, they worked well but looked kind of cheesy.
• It lacked a built in stand or prop for easier typing, watching, etc.
Keeping all of the above in mind, here's the list of features for the new Duct Tape Folio for iPad 2:
• Integrated sleep/wake function
• Easy magnetic insert and removal
• Built in prop/stand
• Durable plywood core
• Stylish magnetic clasp
Be sure to check out the video at the end of the post to see it all in action.

[The original iPad Duct Tape Folio Case - link]
04/10/11 – Update
I've been receiving such great feedback I'd like to elaborate a little more in response:
This was mostly just a challenge to myself to create a full case (front and back) that utilized the magnetics as the sole mechanism to attach the iPad.
All of the other full cases I've seen cover the ipad in some way similar to Apple's original iPad case. I always thought those type of cases were ugly and detract from the simpleness of the ipad. I think Apple felt the same way and with the iPad 2 they designed the wonderfully simple smart cover. I wanted to build upon that simplicity. Sure the industrial look of duct tape is not for everyone, but it definitely is unique.

Draco's Final Task14 Reviews
To, and through, the Final Task.
Chapter IX
She-Who-Must-Be-Mentioned and her minions own the Potterverse.
I just rewrite parts for free in a neutral corner.
As February turned into March, Harry Potter was an upset warlock. So far, there had been five curses aimed at his back, two attempted poisonings, and once a rock nearly dropped on his head while he was navigating a set of moving stairs. Even ignoring the attempts at poisonings, and the fact that despite magic being used in the corridors was mostly ignored when there were no staff or prefects present, these were too many 'accidents' for even the most gullible mage to believe they were in fact accidental. In addition, while Harry's not-so-mysterious enemy had both forced the house elves to poison Harry's goblet at one meal and his plate at another, and ordered them not to disclose who he was, the elves had both warned Harry of the attempts (so he could 'discover' the poisons himself, giving the elves cover) and given him so many clues that even someone with the intelligence of the late Vinny Crabbe would have figured things out in a few seconds.
The question was, what could Harry do about it? Even though Snape was dead, Harry was still sworn not to kill Draco during the Tournament, although he could likely get away with crippling the idiot. Harry berated himself for not just doing so, but his ego just would not allow the possibility of anyone thinking that he had disabled the little ponce to eliminate him from the Tournament. Granted, Harry probably had enough evidence to get Draco expelled from Hogwarts, but that would not suspend him from the Tournament. If anything, that might just give him more time to plot.
Hermione was now more actively watching his back, and had recruited a few others to help. Draco would not get another easy shot at him. Still, the 'Puree Prick' was persistent. Harry sighed, and decided to sub-contract the problem with Draco, at least until he could kill him after the Tournament was over. He therefore called Fred and George into a meeting. The twins had been very subdued that year, as they planned out their joke shop, now that they had both the financial backing of Sirius and Harry and lots of ideas from Sirius and Remus. In fact, the actual company was scheduled to be created on April 1, the day the twins reached 17. It would be a full partnership – Sirius would put in 2,000 Galleons, while Harry put up 1,000, and each twin 500. Each twin would own 25.5% of the company, Sirius would own 25%, and Harry and Remus would each have 12%. Remus would be in charge of most manufacturing for a while, so that the Company would have a good stockpile of merchandise when its store opened (currently scheduled for June 30, 1996). Therefore, nearly all the twins' pranks had been on (mostly) willing 'test subjects', primarily the younger Gryffindors and Hufflepuffs. Still, Harry thought it was worth consulting them.
The pair heard Harry out, and then George asked, "What exactly are you asking us to do?"
"As much as we'd love to really hurt the blond bastard, it could easily blow up in all our faces," Fred reluctantly agreed.
"I want several things," Harry retorted. "First, I need to know where he is at all times. I gave you the Map back so you could avoid the Filch and the prefects when you are conducting your 'market research'. I talked with Remus, and he'll need it for a day so he can make me some Malfoy detectors, so we can watch my back better."
"He might have help," George pointed out.
"I doubt it," Harry replied. "I don't think Goyle would help him these days, and I doubt if he would trust anyone else who's left."
"We'll send Remus the Map by tonight," Fred said.
"Second, I need Malfoy's time taken up with something other than plotting against me. I was hoping you might be able to arrange for him to be kept on his toes. If you can't, I'll think of something else."
"You told us you took an oath not to kill him. Why not just cripple him?" George asked, not quite seriously.
"Because I haven't come up with a fool-proof way of it not being traced back to me," Harry answered.
The twins looked at each other. They knew Harry had grown tougher, even harder, over the previous summer, but that answer still slightly surprised them. Fred then asked. "Does Dobby still work here?"
"Yes, although he also works for me part time. Dobby!"
Dobby popped into the room, bouncing up-and-down. "Yes, Harry!" Harry had, mostly, gotten the elf to calm down when called.
"Does he know about this?" George asked.
"Oh, yes," Harry answered. "He knows all about it."
Fred took out a small bottle from his left pocket. Harry saw the top was stoppered with an eye dropper. "Could you, or some other elf, put a drop of this into one of Malfoy's ears tonight?"
"Despite what bad Malfoy tried to force elves to do, elves may not harm students under castle wards," Dobby said. "They would have warned any student, but may not have revealed who had given order. Elves would not have had to punish selves, even if Harry had not ordered them not to."
"One drop will interrupt his inner ear for two days, if it is treated, five days if it is not," George said.
"Hogwarts tells Dobby youse is telling truth, but that does that mean?" Dobby asked.
"It means he'll be so dizzy if he moves too much, especially with his eyes open, that he will fall or puke, if not both," Fred replied.
Dobby seemed to listen, and then said, "Hogwarts would normally say no to elf asking this, but approves for Harry." He took the bottle and popped away.
"Does Hermione know you have a girl on the side?" Fred asked.
"Hogwarts is a girl, right?" George added.
"She does, and she is," Harry answered. "Thanks, guys. That gives me a few days at least."
"We'll see if we can't think of something to help out," George said.
"It could be fun!" Fred agreed.
"Do I want to know why you had something like that in your pocket?" Harry asked, curious.
"One set of our 'under-the-counter' products will be what look like candy, but which actually make you look ill," George answered.
"So students have a reason to get out of a class, if needs be," Fred added.
"We just bottled this concentrated potion this morning. Three drops. . . ."
". . . will be enough to spread over fifty pranks."
Harry could only shake his head in amazement.
Once he recovered from a serious dizziness attack, Draco Malfoy quickly became one frustrated and confused wizard. First, no matter how hard he tried, he just could not find Harry Potter alone again. Most of the time he spent out of the Slytherin area, Malfoy found he was not alone. Groups of annoying, insignificant students (ie, anyone who did not follow his own beliefs) always seemed to have him in sight. Try as he might, he just could not seem to shake them off his trail easily. The few times he succeeded, Draco either could not find Potter, or wound up have those killing curse colored eyes staring right at him.
After three weeks of this, Draco came to the conclusion that the only way he might take Potter out was to walk right up to him at the start or end of a class and stab him. As that would prevent the most important part of his plan to fail (getting away with it), Draco did not consider this a good basis for a plan. Had the Dark Lord not been so completely dead, he might have tried this, using the 'but I was under the Imperius' excuse, but Draco didn't dare try.
Worse than his failure to get Potter in his sights again, however, was the series of minor but prevalent mishaps which befell Draco outside of the class room. Minors hexes seemed to strike him every few minutes when he was in the corridors, and every morning he woke up with body parts modified. He quickly learned to check his feet before getting out of bed, as every morning, they were different sizes (from each other, as well as different than normal). His legs or arms were often mismatched as well. His hair could be any shade, other than its normal white-blond. His teeth were often sizes that would make Granger's look acceptable, and for four days running his left ear lobe hung past his waist.
No, March, April, May, and early June were not good months for Draco.
What passed for the highlight of that period had been learning about the Third Task. Draco could only hope he could make the maze run fast enough to overcome the lead the other Champions would have going into the maze. At least Malfoy could convince himself that he had a good chance, especially since the International officials would take off any hexes he was under at the time.
To his surprise, while the numbers of students keeping an eye on Draco if anything increased, the week before the Third Task the pranks and other problems Draco had been encountering slacked off. To Draco, it was if he was coming out of a fog, and able to see the landscape around him clearly for the first time since early March, if not sooner.
He did not like what he saw.
The Wizengamot had bowed to the economic pressures on its members, and there would be an election for the first time in Britain's history on the next winter's solstice. The Wizengamot would increase in size from fifty to seventy members. The original arrangement would still hold – forty members from the Old Families, who would select their new members whenever one died or retired, and ten from the Ministry (the Minister and the five senior department heads, plus four senior members appointed by the Minister). But the new members would be elected for five year terms, with four up for election every year. In addition, it turned out that about 5 percent of the Ministry's positions were already technically 'unrestricted' (i.e. determined by merit alone). This was now raised to 25 percent.
Reforms for Hogwarts and the regional schools would be announced in June, right after the O.W.L.s and N.E.W.T.s. Muggle Studies and History were the two courses most affected, and both would be radically updated over the next ten years. Courses in Muggle Culture for the magically-raised and Magical Culture for the Muggle-raised would also be mandated for Hogwarts (the regional schools had had such courses for decades). The magical 'vocational' courses offered to 16-18 year olds at the regional schools would not be offered at Hogwarts, but the Muggle ones, designed to help the magical gain employment or further their education at Muggle universities and technical schools, would be. Hogwarts, however, would remain the only British school to offer the full range of electives (Runes, Arithmancy, Muggle Studies, and Care, and in fact it remained the only British school to offer Divination), the regional schools offering Muggle Studies and one other elective.
Draco, and those with similar backgrounds, were appalled. Hermione and most of the other Muggleborn had been outraged that the reforms had not gone further. Harry was content, as they had actually gone further than he had anticipated, and he hoped that the reforms would continue to evolve over time. He pointed out to Hermione, who spread the idea, that if the reforms were too radical, there could either be a backlash or perhaps a cascade effect causing a truly bloody revolution (as in the French and Russian revolutions). As few of the anti-Purees of any kind, in or out of Hogwarts, wanted bloodshed unless the pro-Purebloods started something, let alone open warfare, as that idea spread the more extreme agitation, fortunately, quieted down.
Meanwhile, most of the surviving Deatheaters and those with similar outlooks had realized that now was not the time to use violence. In fact, many had come to believe that they had fair shots at winning most of the newly opened seats. After all, they had convinced themselves, they were the natural leaders, and therefore the sheep of Britain would vote for them. The new representatives, after all, would not represent regions. On the winter's solstice, each British mage would vote for four candidates, and the top twenty candidates would simply win. (There would be twenty, as all the representatives would be elected to staggered terms. The top four would have five year terms, the next four would have four year terms, etc.) While none of those who were thinking of running were naive enough to believe they and their allies would win all the seats, they did believe they should capture at least ten, from mere name recognition as well as their ancestry.
Back at Hogwarts, all four champions were training, three (Harry, Viktor, and Fleur) were even training hard. Draco was spending more time planning on how to use his victory to create a political career than he was in actual training, but even he spent almost an hour a day (most days, anyways) training and practicing.
Finally, however, the O.W.L./N.E.W.T. examiners left and the other students had finished their exams. The new standards were announced for future classes. The Third Task was ready to go.
As Harry entered the maze, he tapped his glasses, fully enabling a powerful version of mage sight. His preferred strategy was based on the idea that while magic had been used to grow the maze, the shrubs were not actually magical. Of course, there was still the possibility that the shrubs were enchanted.
The mage sight allowed Harry to determine that while parts of the hedges were indeed enchanted, and reminded him that while there was devil's snare and a few other magical plants mixed in, over half of the shrubs were now magically inert. Harry had three and a half minutes before the final canon shot would signal Malfoy's entrance into the maze, which also signal the magical sensors the International had set up to turn on. Those would tell the crowd watching what each champion was doing, and Harry wanted to take full advantage of that time.
A muttered spell directed at himself, an old Celtic 'ghost' spell, both turned Harry invisible and allowed him to move through any non-magical barrier. Harry had snuck out one evening and verified that the area the Cup would be placed was the same as before, and this allowed him to take a more-or-less direct route to the Cup without having to know the plan of the maze.
This time around, Harry had asked the International referee what would happen when the Cup was touched. She told him that doing so would signal fireworks, thus alerting the other contestants the contest was over, and portkey the winner back to the starting point. She also swore that she had in fact verified that the portkey had been correctly made.
While Harry could not go in a precise direct line to the Cup, he had only had to make minor course corrections as he jogged some two hundred and forty meters to the Cup. Harry therefore got to the Cup just over two minutes after he had entered the Maze, having avoided the magical plants and having encountered none of the magical animals or other traps.
Harry glanced at his watch and frowned. A wave of his wand verified that the Cup was a two-way portkey, but this time, it had already been used once. Harry hoped that was from the referee using the portkey to get to the center of the Maze to plant the Cup.
Harry got into a defensive stance, took a deep breath, and grabbed the Cup.
The hooked/travel sensation took almost no time before Harry was slammed down to the ground, but years of practice enabled him to land on his feet. Harry raised the Cup a little with his left hand (since it was in fact fairly heavy) and glanced at Malfoy.
"Still here, hey, Draco?" Harry asked. Anything else said but anyone was then obscured as the crowd went wild and the fireworks shot off.
The party went on long into the night but not in Gryffindor Tower. That was because Harry asked that any party actually be given in the great hall. He made certain that all the students, including the visitors, were invited. Even most of the Slytherins came, although not Draco.
Harry was seen drinking a lot of the non-spiked punch (granted, the punch had to be replaced often, as the Weasley twins were not the only ones spiking it), and therefore he had to take many restroom breaks. A number of people left after 11:00, which was when the staff forced the First and Second years to go to bed.
Ron Weasley left around 11:30. He knew there was a distance that had grown between himself and Harry, but he had never really felt how large that distance had become until that night. He realized that his brothers and even Neville were more friendly with Harry than he now was. For once, he did not blame Harry, or Hermione, or the universe, but realized that he had not even tried to stay close to Harry that year. He had waited, and waited, and waited for Harry, or Harry and Hermione, to come to him. Instead, they had passed him by as Ron sulked.
It was a self-pitying Ron who went to sleep, but at least he was only blaming himself for once.
No one had seen Malfoy since shortly after the Third Task was finished. After this final embarrassment, few were surprised when he was found the next morning, hanging from the ceiling of the potions classroom.
No one thought it anything but suicide.
Or at least, if anyone did, they said nothing.

PLAYERS: Sidney Crosby, Evgeni Malkin
TEAMS: Pittsburgh Penguins
TEAMS: Pittsburgh Penguins
Sidney Crosby has been skating in full gear and working out at home. You can read "They have yet to set a timetable on when Sidney Crosby will return" all over the internet. It is this simple, Crosby doesn't have a concussion, he sets his own timetable. Penguins Evgeni Malkin appeared out of the blue yesterday afternoon and announced he was playing last night, why not Crosby? Players have came back sooner from broken jaws, Penguins player Rick Tocchet broke his jaw in the playoffs then engaged in a fight three games later. Shelley Anderson at the Post-Gazette tweeted "Heard Sidney Crosby feeling pretty good but there just might not be enough healing in broken jaw for him to play before playoffs". Sometimes things have a way of healing faster when they get in the way of something someone wants. Crosby has admitted several times that he is an extremely competitive person, believe me, he wants the Art Ross Trophy. Is it selfish to want to win the Art Ross Trophy? Probably. I had ...

This recipe is fast, easy and very tasty. My whole family enjoyed it! I will be making this one again! This recipe would be great for any occasion. If you like a more spicier dish, I would add more hot sauce.

yorkmisti Posted: 03/10/10
this was very easy and so delicious!! i will definitely make this again. it's healthy and low carb so it's perfect for dinner.
adamwa Posted: 05/11/10
i give this 4 stars because i thought it was a good solid recipe my bf thought it was outstanding. have no idea where to buy a mixxed chopped tomato onion and bell pepper but had fresh ones on hand so just diced up about 1 cup total of veggies and followed directions. I couldnt figure out where the butter came from in the recipe directions so i just used butter instead of water mixxed with the hot sauce. Probably not the healthiest thing but it was good! BF said it could be less buttery so next time i may try it with the water or a mixture of butter and water. I also used cilantro instead of thyme because that is what i had on hand.
WifeyKnifey Posted: 09/02/11
The Wifey loves making (and eating!) this dish. Here's another one from the Cooking Light 5 Ingredient 15 minute Recipes that I absolutely love. Both times I've made it I was without tilapia in the freezer so both times I substituted another white fish. I preferred the haddock to the barramundi, and I'm sure the tilapia is even better. See the rest of my review here: http://wifeyknifey.blogspot.com/2011/09/spicy-louisiana-tilapia-fillets-with.html
cconnito Posted: 08/20/12
WOW. I am writing this before I finish eating so I don't forget anything. First of all, instead of buying a pre-diced tomato-onion-pepper mix, I got one of those "fresh hot salsa" packages that are found in the produce section (a very simple one that was basically just diced vegetable) and drained it before cooking. I also salted and peppered the fish before cooking. Never one to shy away from extra heat, we still made the hot sauce, butter, thyme mixture, but instead of water, I used a little dry vermouth I had in the cabinet. Served it over the Hoppin' John-style Rice and it was awesome!!! The only thing missing was a splash of lime, which I will serve with it next time. I will definitely make this again! Changes: fresh chopped hot salsa instead of pre-chopped tomato, onion, pepper mix Salt and Peppered the fish before cooking Dry Vermouth instead of water a splash of lime

Thanks 'cconnito' I followed all of your changes including the vermouth and it was delicious.

Wish 4: Rescue Mission0 Reviews
Wish 4: Rescue Mission
Wish 4: Rescue Mission
"Your highness! Where are you going at this hour?" Remedy noticed you leaving the palace and followed you, so
much for sneaking out.
"No lies Remedy, I'm going to see the real Mewt!" You ran past Remedy and into the jeweled royal carriage. "Driver,
take me to the jail."
"Princess?" The bangaa driver sounded shocked.
"Now!" You insisted and he dared not question you again.
Remedy teleported herself inside the carriage and sat across from you. "Dear princess, I was only trying to find
your happiness. To spare you of treason, and give you everything your heart could ever want. I am your loyal
advisor after all, or perhaps more like your godmother."
"Hiding the truth can't bring me happiness; I want the full story from the real Mewt." You were determined to find
out what truly happened, yet oddly enough, Remedy didn't take it so badly.
xoxox xox xoxox
The jail was dark, cold and humid. You made your way inside despite the warden and guards insisting that this was
no place for a princess. Remedy followed you inside without saying anything. "Mewt!" You finally found him, chained
up in a jail cell.
He called your name happy to see you, as if he knew you were coming. "Llednar spoke to you before returning to
me, didn't he?"
"Yes." Whatever happened you certainly were not going to leave him in the jail. You turned to Remedy, knowing of
her magical abilities. "Free him."
Remedy did not question your order and unlocked the chains and cell by magic.
"I'm sorry you were brought here Mewt," you apologized. "I'll hear what you have to say now."
Mewt eyed Remedy suspiciously and she smiled arrogantly. "Don't hold back because of me, I already know your
story anyway."
"Fine," Mewt began his narration in more detail. He told you about his days as prince, Marche's struggle, his final
choice, the reasons for that choice, and how everyone returned to the old Ivalice together. He told you of his
adventure so far, about how he teamed up with Marche, Ritz and Doned and destroyed the crystals once again.
The only task that remained undone was your choice. If you wished for it, the world of Ivalice would change back.
You nodded and thought about a particular detail. "So if I wish it, this world will stay and there's nothing that can
be done about that?"
Mewt nodded, "yes, you're the only one who can undo this."
"I refuse," your answer was as Remedy expected. "I like this world; I want to stay here forever. Mewt, stay with
me. I'm the princess; I can give you anything you want. Marche, Ritz and Doned are welcome too!"
"You know we can't do that, you just haven't realized it," Mewt wasn't agreeing with you, and you were not
agreeing with him.
Why leave the perfect world behind? It made no sense to you. "Give this world a second chance, that's all that I
ask. Come with me to the palace, we can see magic shows, tournaments, and we could travel all over Ivalice later.
We could form a clan; it'll be great. All of us can have so much fun!"
Mewt paused in deep thought. "Alright, I'll go with you, we all will, we'll help you realize the truth. But only if all our
friends can come along."
"Sure, Marche, Ritz, Doned, and whoever else you want to invite." You agreed, this way all of you would be
together, you would be with the real Mewt and you would make him realize how wonderful the new Ivalice was.
"Not only them, Babus, Montblanc and Shara too; we were hunted down and ambushed by the royal army and the
Totemas. They're all here." At first, they didn't think they would be facing all the Totemas at once, since the game
re-started in a way, they didn't have their support and were not given the chance to earn it once again. Remedy
placed little importance in the crystals this time around, relaying mostly on your wish. All the Totemas, teamed with
the royal army, were too much for Clan Nutsy and they were captured.
"New friends? Alright, I'll welcome them all." You smiled determined and confident, you would make them see things
your way. "Remedy, free all of Mewt's friends and arrange transportation back to the palace."
Remedy casted a teleportation spell and you were back in your room at the palace. You had a bad feeling about
this and rushed to find Mewt and the others. You found them at the throne room, fighting Remedy.
"Remedy, what are you doing?" You yelled at her in shock, did she dare defy you this openly after seemingly
cooperating? No, that was all a trick, just an act.
"Getting rid of a few annoyances, you have such a strong wish for this world that it makes me strong. Mewt's
doubt might have weakened me the last time, but this time no one can stop me!" Remedy laughed evilly and casted
a powerful spell that caused most of the Nutsy clan to collapse.
"No! Stop this! This isn't what I want!" It was no use, whatever power you thought you had over Remedy was
never there.
"You want this world princess, this luxurious perfect life. Don't worry; Fidan will keep you company, you don't need
them!" Remedy prepared to finish off the Nutsy clan, including Mewt.
"Mewt!" You ran to him, but were thrown aside by Remedy's magic.
"Wish to go back home!" Ritz called, it seemed that was the only choice.
"You have to chose, this world or our lives," when Marche put it that way, it was hard to refuse; you couldn't let
them be destroyed.
"It doesn't matter what you say, her heart is in doubt and you can't change that!" Remedy was right, you wanted
to save your friends, but you stubbornly held on to the hope of saving them and staying in this world.
"I may not have magic back in the old Ivalice," Mewt got up with significant difficulty. "But if you take us back, for
all the wishes you gave up, I'll try to grant them for you."
"You can't grant anyone's wishes! Only I can!" Remedy formed a ball of dark energy in her hands, ready to throw it
at Mewt. In his state, there was no way he could survive an attack of such power.
"Mewt!" Everyone still conscious from Clan Nutsy called.
"My wish is to be with Mewt, only one person can grant that and it's Mewt himself." You made a wish; you wished
to save Mewt and wished for anything that had to happen for your first wish to be granted, even if it meant going
The dark energy faded before it hit Mewt, and Remedy started to disappear. You summoned the magic book,
holding it out and Remedy was absorbed into it. Everything started to disappear, and your senses began to fade.
When you woke up, you were back at your house, in your room, but you knew it had not been a dream. You called
everyone, they made it back safely. Then you went to Mewt's house.
"You saved us, thanks," Mewt smiled.
"I was the one who started all of that," the book had appeared beside you when you woke up. "Sorry, I knocked
down some books by accident and found this when I was picking them up. I didn't take it so I'm not sure why it
appeared at my house, maybe because I was the last to use it. There was also a bear plushie, I kind of forgot to
bring it, it's at my house." You returned the magic book to Mewt.
"I'll make sure to keep this book safe and you can keep the bear, but don't tell anyone it used to be mine." You
agreed and promised Mewt you wouldn't. "You gave up your wish to save us, but I'll keep my promise. I'll try my
best to grant your wishes." Mewt hugged you. "I'll really try..."
You hugged him back, if the old Ivalice was like this, then it wasn't so bad after all. "I have everything I could wish
for now..."

6. Cut out a 2.5 inch long strip & a 3.5 inch long strip of the Elastic. Finish the cut edges, if you'd like, with Bias Tape.
7. On back side the 2.5 inch long Elastic, measure up 1.5 inches from one end and mark a line across with a permanent pen.
8. Place the Elastic through the flat part of both D-Ring buckles and align the end with the marked line to create a loop. Pin together and sew a quarter inch from the edge to secure the D-Ring buckles into this loop.
12. On the interior side of Trailer Roof pattern piece, measure up 1 inch from one end and .25 inches from the left side & use a permanent pen to mark a 1 inch wide placement line. Repeat on the right side, as well as the left and right sides of the opposite end of the Trailer Roof.
13. Align the edge of one of the Stacked Elastic pieces with the first left placement line you marked and secure into place by sewing a rectangle shape with an X through the middle. Repeat on the right side.
17. Place the freezer paper template for Trailer Side A onto left side of the fabric & Trailer Side B onto the right side. Iron into place and cut around the freezer paper to make two pattern pieces. Repeat this step for the plain strip of fabric and for the Heavyweight Stabilizer by reusing the freezer paper templates. TIP- Also try cutting out these two pattern pieces in batting if you choose to quilt the sides of the trailer. By placing it between the fabric and the Heavyweight Stabilizer, it will add extra texture and dimension to your project!
22. Carefully remove all of the Freezer Paper and stitch around each part with your favorite edge finishing stitch.
24. Starting at the wheel opening, align one of the Trailer Sides with the end of the Trailer Roof & pin it in place.
One cute trailer!

ROME (Reuters) - The seizure of assets as part of a probe into suspected fraud against Italy's Monte Paschi
"The seizure order interrupts the validity of the contracts so they cease to have effect," the source said. "The contracts have been frozen, so receipts and payments are suspended."
The "Alexandria" contract is one of the central elements in a complex investigation into the scandal at Monte Paschi, Italy's third-largest bank, which got into trouble over a series of opaque derivatives deals linked to the 2007 acquisition of rival Banca Antonveneta.
No comment was immediately available from the banks.
Earlier, Siena prosecutors said they had seized assets worth more than 1.8 billion euros held by Nomura as well as by a group of former Monte Paschi managers including ex-chairman Giuseppe Mussari.

Watch These Stocks at Goldman Sachs Power & Utility Conference
John is a member of The Motley Fool Blog Network -- entries represent the personal opinion of the blogger and are not formally edited.
Goldman Sachs is hosting its 12th annual Power & Utility Conference in New York on Thursday, August 8. The one-day event will focus on a variety of topics surrounding the power & utility business, including capital allocation, growth in a regulatory environment, and demand trends across the power, natural gas, and water markets.
The Select Sector Utilities SPDR (NYSEMKT: XLU) is a benchmark for the power & utility industry. The ETF has underperformed the S&P 500 so far in 2013 as investors have placed larger bets on cyclical stocks as the U.S. economy continues its slow-but-steady recovery.
As a long-term investor, I'm more concerned with the 5-year history of utility stocks and pay less attention to the current year performance. Simply put, the utility sector has a consistent history of price appreciation and dividend growth through all market cycles. Power & utility stocks also performed better than the S&P 500 during the 2008-09 recession, and the sector has outperformed the market over the last decade.
Ahead of the Goldman Sachs conference, here are 3 power & utility companies which could deliver over the next 12 months:
Clean energy leader
The Juno Beach, FL headquartered NextEra Energy (NYSE: ATO) is a leading clean energy company and the parent of Florida Power & Light and NextEra Energy Resources. The FPL electric utility business serves 4.6 million customers in Florida, making it one of the largest rate-regulated utilities in the U.S. In addition to FPL, NextEra Energy is the largest generator of renewable energy from the wind and sun.
On July 30, NextEra Energy announced second quarter 2013 results of $1.46, significantly higher than the $1.28 consensus EPS. Management provided a full-year forecast of $4.70-$5.00 per share, with actual results likely in the upper half of the range.
Investors in NextEra Energy have strong visibility for earnings and dividend growth through 2016. Last year, the Florida Public Service Commission approved a rate plan which extends through December 2016. The rate agreement will allow Florida Power & Light to earn a return on equity between 9.70% and 11.70%.
NextEra Energy was also chosen as the winner of a $3 billion gas pipeline running from southwestern Alabama to central Florida, expected to be completed by 2017. Chief executive James Robo will be speaking at the upcoming Goldman conference.
Great Lakes energy company
Wisconsin Energy (NYSE: WEC) is presenting at the upcoming Goldman conference and is one of the largest holdings in the Utilities SPDR. The Milwaukee, WI headquartered company operates in two segments: a utility energy segment and a non-utility energy segment.
I believe Wisconsin Energy can outperform the utility sector over the next 5 years. Back in May, the company held its annual meeting of shareholders where CEO Gale Klappa outlined his growth plan through 2017. Klappa announced the company's goal to increase its dividend payout to 65–70% of earnings by 2017, a distribution more consistent with other energy companies.
At the time, Klappa anticipated a double-digit increase in Wisconsin Energy's dividend for 2014, followed by a 7–8% growth in the years 2015 through 2017. The announcement follows a 13.3% dividend increase that took place in January 2013, which raised the annual dividend to $1.36 per share.
Fast-forward to July 18, and Wisconsin Energy announced the company would accelerate its 2014 dividend action for the second half of 2013. The news comes following the recent opening of the Oak Creek Power Plant, including two new coal-burning units approved by regulators. The completion of the Oak Creek project brings to a close a decade-long project, which will allow Wisconsin Energy to return greater cash flow to shareholders.
New York City utility giant
Con Edison (NYSE: ED) delivers electricity, natural gas, and steam energy to New York City, the most concentrated population center in the US. In addition to Manhattan, Con Edison provides energy within a 1,350 square mile area in southeastern New York state and Westchester County.
Back in May, Con Edison reported lower-than-expected earnings of $0.69 due to higher operations & maintenance costs related to Hurricane Sandy. Wall Street had been expecting $0.73 for Q412, and full-year guidance of $3.65-$3.85 is likely lower than expected due to a "drag effect" from Hurricane Sandy as well.
Investors are waiting to see the result of Con Edison's 2013 filing with the New York State Public Service Commission, as the company is hoping to earn an additional $400 million based on higher utility rates. This would provide a return on equity of 10.35%, much higher than Con Edison's 12-month ROE of 8.99%. I'd consider holding off on Con Ed until a decision in the rate case is announced, as the verdict could affect our long-term thesis.
In June, Citigroup upgraded Con Edison to "buy" from "hold" with a new $65 price target. The analysts became optimistic on Con Ed following positive meetings with the company's executive team.
Con Ed is participating in a roundtable at the Goldman Sachs Power & Utility conference. The company is also the 10th largest holding in the Utilities SPDR ETF, representing 3.57% of the index.
Foolish takeaway
While power & utility companies may not be the "sexiest" investments, the fact is that slow & steady companies can deliver healthy returns for your portfolio. Furthermore, one of the most important aspects of an investment is evaluating the downside, and the utility sector has performed well through all market cycles.
Readers might consider NextEra Energy and Wisconsin Energy based on relative outperformance and strong long-term fundamentals. A third option is Con Edison, pending a successful rate increase with the New York state regulator.

After I had spent a large amount of money on legal fees, I rand out of money. I had to inform my financial situation to my attorney. My attorney filed a motion to withdraw from the case, which I held no objection to, but the Judge, after hearing both sides of the story from me and my attorney, deined the motion and ordered my attorney to defend me. The case was settled a day before trial date. Now, the attorney is sending me letters demanding payment and is threatening a lawsuit if payment isn't met, but since the Judge ordered him to defend me, I'm questioning weither or not his threats have any legal standing. Is it legal for him to demand payment from defending me on the Judge's order?
I think you are misunderstanding the judge's order here. A lawyer can seek to withdraw as your attorney if he or she is not being paid. Many times, a judge will deny this request unless it would cause your attorney an extreme hardship to continue to represent you. A judge does not order that a lawyer must represent you, but simply denies the lawyer's attempt to withdraw as your attorney and that the attorney continue to perform according to the original agreement. I suggest you read your fee agreement closely and you should see that you are still obligated to pay the attorney. Even if their is no agreement, the attorney is owed for the amount of work performed just like any other profession. If you ask a landscaper to do a job, the landscaper performs, and the value of the work is defined either by a written contract or a value established in court, you are obligated to pay that amount.
You do not set forth any reason above why the attorney should not be paid. If your claim is that you believe the attorney did not work as hard after the judge's order, such a defense is weakened based on the fact that your attorney was able to help resolve your case and reach a settlement. As only a client can approve a settlement and not an attorney, your agreement to settle supports the fact that your attorney did his or her job.
There are many reasons the judge could have refused to allow your lawyer to withdraw. The judge could have felt that if your attorney withdrew, the judge would have to allow a delay of the trial so as to allow you and your new attorney time to prepare. The judge might have felt that he or she didn't want his/her caseload gummed up with a delay. Or the judge may have felt the attorney had already charged enough. I agree with the other answers that the mere fact that the judge made the lawyer continue does not mean the judge was ordering the attorney to henceforth work for free.

After 46 days on the road, Jaime Case, Chris Hodges and Roxy – the Ford Fusion they've been doing a lap of America in – are back in Jaime and Chris' hometown of San Francisco. They made the trip they originally set out to do. But, as is the case when anything fun nears its end, Jaime and Chris wanted to keep things going. They realized that they still have 34 days left before the wedding, and a few more people they'd like to see. So after a short rest at home, they'll be back on the road with Roxy to cover their home state of California to see the rest of their family and friends.
What is Wedding Road Trip?
Instead of asking guests to attend their wedding reception, Jaime Case and Chris Hodges hit the road to see them! In their hometowns, and often in their living rooms! In addition to spending more quality time with each person they visit, they also wanted to avoid spending a huge chunk of change on what would have been one day. Why not spread it out over six weeks, spend lots of time with the people important in their lives and enjoy the drive in between?
So they made a plan, mapped out the 250 people that they'd like to visit, borrowed a 2010 Ford Fusion and set out on the journey.
Officially, the wedding road trip is a pre-wedding road trip around the country to see friends and family prior to signing a marriage certificate. This trip focuses on learning more about marriage and the commitment therein.

Unfortunately there was a widespread internet outage that kept us from being able to post to Tumblr (or Twitter, oddly) so we couldn't share a link to today's Q&A livestream with Matt Smith and Caro Skinner.
Video of the Q&A is being edited and will be posted to the newly regenerated Doctor Who YouTube channel next week. We'll post the video here as soon as it becomes available.
Also: did you know we keep a Twitter account as a backup to this Tumblr? We just thought you should know.
Today I was in English and someone went by the classroom and their cell phone went off. Their message tone was the TARDIS noise but I didn't realise it was a cell phone at the time all I could hear was the TARDIS. I jumped out of my chair so fast that the desk fell over. I thought the Doctor had finally come for me.
Or, more accurately, the site is now taking forever to load.
That's impressive (and speaks to how amazing a fandom you are.)
Can we nominate you for a separate award for this?
UPDATE 4:55pm EDT: It's up again! GO GO GO!
Yaaaaaaaaay! Thanks for noticing!
We were afraid that one day, we'd have to resort to posting this gif:
I'm there.
After 2 months, I am finally at The Angels Take Manhattan.
I'm ready but not ready.
Wish me luck.
We're all here for you.

CENTREVILLE (WKZO) --The Michigan Court of Appeals has ruled on a major court case out of St. Joseph County, upholding the original findings of the jury in the Calista Springer child abuse case.
In this case the Appellate judges have upheld the convictions of Marsha and Anthony Springer, who were convicted in a most unusual child abuse case. They had been regularly chaining their teenaged daughter to her bed because they claimed it was the only way they could keep the 16-year-old from misbehaving at night. When their home caught fire in 2008, Calista Springer couldn't escape and died.
The couple appealed complaining that Judge Paul Stutesman had allowed improper evidence and that other mistakes had been made denying them a fair trial. The Appellate judges disagreed.
Just a few weeks ago, the appellate court also upheld the murder conviction of Doug Stewart for the killing of estranged wife Venus. Judge Stutesman also presided over that trial.

Cool Site: I Want Her Job
I first heard about I Want Her Job when my friend (and the founder/president of She's The First) Tammy Tibbetts was featured on the site. (Go Tammy!)
IWHJ bills itself as "the website for independent-thinking women everywhere in search of the next best thing." In order to serve this demographic, creator Brianne Burrowes posts interviews that she's conducted with "leading ladies" working in a variety of disciplines that have at least one thing in common: they all love what they do for a living!
This concept is so simple, yet extremely compelling. The interviewees' inspiring stories provide a great reminder that amidst all of the stress and economic struggles, it is possible to love your career. Plus, it's interesting to see how all of the women got where they are. Each interview includes information about the interviewee's educational background, and Burrowes' interview questions are forward-thinking and elicit informative responses.
I recommend taking some time to read the leading ladies' interviews, as well as Burrowes' blog on the site. Be sure to follow IWHJ on Twitter (@iwantherjob) and Facebook if you like daily inspiration!
(Is that ending too cheesy? Possibly. Do I care? Not really.)

I've talked to several executives who still view Shabazz Napier as a second-rounder, even after impressive tourney:
Shabazz Napier led the Connecticut Huskies to the national championship, his second title in four years. He was fantastic during the tournament and led UConn in points, assists, rebounds and steals during the season. So where will Napier go in the 2014 NBA Draft? I've talked to a number of executives tonight who still view Napier as a second-round pick, even after his impressive title run. These executives aren't sure how Napier's game will translate to the next level. His size is a concern and teams aren't sure if he can be an efficient contributor in the NBA. The fact that he's turning 23 years old in July also hurts him, as teams are more likely to take a younger player with more upside rather than a four-year college player. DraftExpress currently has Napier projected as the 46th overall pick.

This Smokin' New Scooter Is Made With Hemp
This innovative scooter made out of hemp and other sustainable materials trumps your sea foam green Vespa.
You saw the headline, so let's just get this out of the way. The new Be.e scooter, is actually made from a hemp-based plastic and thus is not a pure form of the cannabis variant. (Meaning desperate or bored potheads can't smoke it.) Also, while hemp is indeed smokeable, it doesn't lead to any kind of high. (So really, don't try.)
There's a bigger buzz around this scooter anyway. The real story is that the bio-based, fully electric vehicle is no less durable or chic than any non-hemp motor scooter. Van.eko, the Dutch startup behind the Be.e design, boasts that the shell is so resilient it will simply scratch or scuff—not fall apart—if it ends up in any minor collision. The scooter's plant-based pedigree doesn't detract from its overall performance either, with speeds up to 30 mph and a 50-mile range.
