Get Back Together (PrussiaxReader)"All right! The Awesome Me is going to clean his awesome room to prove to West that I am capable of cleaning! Prepare to lose little bruder!" Prussia exclaimed as he raced to his room. Germany had used reverse psychology on his brother in order to get him to clean his room. With all the paperwork, babysitting Italy, and keeping the rest of his house clean, he didn't have time to clean the "Awesome One's Lair" as his brother put it. Usually, Prussia's ex-girlfriend, (Name) would clean it for him when they were together despite his protests, but they weren't together anymore after his brother messed up their relationship by going drinking with his friends and bringing a girl home. He knew that his brother missed her very badly, but his pride got in the way of mending their relationship. Luckily, Germany had a plan to solve that.As Prussia strolled into his room, he stopped in shock. Was his room really that messy? Shrugging, Prussia got to work by shoveling the mold covered food
My Sister's Tutor (SwitzerlandxReader)"Lilli, may I talk to you for a second?" asked Vash, a foreign exchange student from Switzerland. He was studying at (your school name) as a senior to see what the education system was like in (your country). Since he was very protective of his sister, he brought her along so he could make sure that she was safe."What is it, big brother?" she inquired sweetly. Vash looked at her and asked, "Who is it that you walk with every day Lilli? I don't want you to walk with strangers." "Oh, that's (Name). She's the tutor I was telling you about. She's the one helping me adjust to the schooling system here. She's in your grade and she's really nice. (Name)'s a lot like you too. She cares about me and she's like a big sister to me." Lilli said cordially to her brother. "I don't want you to get too attached to her, ok? I don't know her very well, so I don't trust her that much. Besides, after I complete this school year, we'll go back to Switzerland to live
You Are My Sunshine (ChinaxReader)As Yao was preparing the medicine for his sick girlfriend, he heard her hoarse voice call out to him."Y-Yao!" The girl cried and she went into a coughing and sniffling fit. He rushed into her room and found her on the floor beside her bed."Aiyah, (Name), I was only gone for a minute. What's the matter?" he said as concern filled his voice."Sing. Sing for me." The girl said in her sick state. Yao was about to protest but he saw the sluggish look in her (e/c) irises and understood. She needed her sleep.Yao pulled her into his lap and was about to ask what he should sing but he remembered something (Name) told him before they became a couple. ~Flashback~ (Name) was visiting Yao for the weekend. He decided to bring her to a beach for the day and they were currently watching the sunset.(Name) broke the silence by saying, "You know, the sunset reminds me of a song called 'You are My Sunshine'. It's a really nice song and very soothing. I would love it if my future boyfriend sa
Truly Special (JapanxReader)'Ow, I fell again. Silly me.' I thought to myself as I picked up my books and straightened out my uniform. My friend, Kiku, picked up the remainder of my books and asked, "(Name)-san, are you all right?" I nodded and replied, "Yeah! I didn't get hurt or anything." As we reached the end of the hall, I turned to him and said, "Thanks for walking me to class. I hope I don't make you late or anything." He shook his head and said, "Hai, it's not a problem. I won't be late because my class is in the room across from yours, remember?" I let out a small 'Oh' and Kiku chuckled and said, "See you later, (Name)-san" and walked out the door.~Kiku's POV~ How could (Name)-san be so cheerful? So many bad things had happened to her before. She's lost her family and she has to work 2 jobs to support herself, but every time I ask her if she needs my family to help her or not, she brushes it off with a cheerful smile. It's not that I don't like her cheerful attitu
Because You're Beautiful (FrancexReader)Ah, Valentine's Day. It was finally over. No more lovey-dovey couples being extra sweet to each other.Well, until the next one.You sighed. Valentine's Day wasn't one of your favorite holidays…let's just say that being reminded that you're single by every couple that walks by isn't very pleasant. Of course, there's nothing wrong with being single. Valentine's Day just makes it seem like it's a crime.All of your friends either didn't care or had a boyfriend to celebrate the cursed day with. Poor you, with your hopes and dreams that some secret admirer would show up with some flowers and candy and confess their undying love for you. That only happens in movies, not real life.Of course, there was one guy. His name was Francis. He was a French exchange student who had come to study at your university since it was cheaper. He had many affectionate tendencies and would flirt with any girl that walked by him, single or no
Want You Back (FrancexReader)Francis walked slowly on the Parisian streets, groceries in one hand, while the other was playing with his messy blonde hair. It was a gloomy day in Paris, and it matched his mood. You see, today was the day the love of his life, (Name) had left him. He had tried to be the most faithful and sweetest boyfriend she ever had, but his flirtatious side took over him and made him break the relationship. He knew that she wouldn't come back and he deserved it. Francis was about to turn around the corner when someone caught his eye. His eyes widened and he almost dropped his bags. Standing across the street, was the one person he missed the most! It was (Name)! He almost ran across the street to her, but the memories came flooding back to him, stopping him from doing so.~Flashback~Francis sat up groggily trying to recollect his memories from last night. He had gone partying without telling his girlfriend, but he made it clear to his friends, Antonio and Gilbert, that he would
My Sister's Tutor (SwitzerlandxReader) Part 2Vash's alarm clock beeped repeatedly, urgently telling him to get up. He slammed his hand on the annoying device, shutting it up so it wouldn't wake up Lilli. He laid still in his bed, mentally preparing himself for the day but all he could think of was Lilli's tutor-(Name). Did she really go to his school? He would have noticed a pretty girl like her. Maybe if he saw her today, he could talk to her and hopefully become friends with her. It would be better than talking to Francis, that disgusting French frog as the British foreign exchange student, Arthur, called him.As he was getting ready for school, Lilli came and knocked on his bedroom door. He opened it quickly, as he was in a rush and didn't want to be late. Besides, he had to make breakfast too. Lilli came up to him and said, "Big brother, I was wondering, could you give these books to (Name)?" He nodded swiftly and went back to putting on his socks. She set the book on his dresser and hurriedly went back to her room so s
Drunk and Faithful (AmericaxReader)Alfred slammed another Corona on the counter. I looked at him with worry swirling in my (e/c) orbs. He looked at me and smiled lovingly. I returned it with one of my own, but mine was considerably weaker. I thought back to this afternoon when this silly American told me about his challenge.~Flashback!~"Hey doll! Wait up!" Alfred, my boyfriend of 1 ½ years exclaimed to me. I turned around to face him, and was enveloped in a bear hug. I giggled a bit and inhaled his scent of Old Spice and McDonald's. It's a strange combination, I know, but as cliché as it sounds, he seemed to make it work. We stayed like that for a few seconds and then parted. He gripped my shoulders and looked at me. I looked back with a questioning glance on my face. He then asked, "Can you be my designated driver tonight?" I raised my eyebrows in surprise and then he continued, "I'm sick and tired of being England's DD every week! He gets drunk after 1 bottle and then starts yelling at me about the R
From a Coma (AmericaxReader)"How is she, doc?" Alfred asked softly to the female, who was checking her clipboard."She is recovering, which is a good sign," the doctor said with a small smile, "But, she may not remember some things. After all, she did take a strong blow to the head in the car crash."Alfred smiled jubilantly and thanked the doctor with glee. His (Name) was recovering! A month ago, (Name) was in New York City to visit Alfred. Not used to the pedestrian life, she got in a car accident. Luckily, one of Alfred's good friends, Toris was nearby and admitted her to the hospital. (Name)'s injuries weren't fatal, but she went into a coma. However, she was expected to come out of it soon.Alfred slowly entered his girlfriend's room, hoping that she was awake. His cerulean eyes dampened with sadness when he discovered that she was not. He dragged the plastic chair to her bed and tenderly held her soft and smooth hand. 'Oh (Name), how I wish you were awake,' he thought to himself as he wat
The Key to my Heart~ BestFriend!RomanoxReader"Wait for me until I return, mi bella," was the last thing he said to you in person. You both exchanged one hug, before he turned around without looking back, to board the airplane.You watched him go with tears in your eyes. Even then you couldn't say what you've always wanted to say. Two simple, but beautiful words in his lovely language

.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~"____________, come down stairs, I want to talk to you!" Eliza, your best friend called from down stairs. It was now exactly ten years from that day you said goodbye. You were now in college, rooming with Elizaveta, and currently the only single person in your group of friends."Okay, just a minute!" you said as you began to shut down your laptop. You plugged it into its charger, quickly surveyed your room, (which was a bit messy) shrugged as you passed it off as neat enough. You then checked yourself in the mirror and also passed yourself off as good enough. Y

Just ask me out already!! -RomanoxReader*Just ask me out on a date, you jerk!* You mentally yelled at the guy who was working at a table across from yours. He was currently busy trying to help Alfred with his math work while Gilbert was throwing little pieces of crumpled up paper at Matthew. You laughed quietly to yourself as you saw that your crush was trying his hardest not to swear at Gilbert. Feeling sorry for him, you left your table of well-mannered girls, (Lili, Elizaveta, and Mei, to be exact, in case you forgot) and walked over to his table."Do you need any help, Lovi?" you sweetly asked the troubled teacher. "I could take care of this trouble maker for you," you smiled as you grabbed (a protesting) Gilbert's arm.Lovino flashed a grateful smile, "I owe you one, ragazza," he said and then turned back to answer yet another one of Alfred's questions.Completely dazzled, you mumbled a response while blushing a deep red and then dragged Gilbert over to my table. You sat down and looked up to see three smirking faces. "

This is what happened every morning at Lovino's when you came and visit. You and Lovino have been friends for a long time now and always had an argument everyday, what a strange relationship you have there.Lovino stares at you quietly his eye twitching slightly. "Fine you win this time!" He takes a sip of water."Awww yeah!" You hold your hand up for a high-five at Antonio. Antonio is usually there just to make matters... well... Entertaining"Eh, ________, you should apologize to Lovi~ He is very sensitive!" Antonio goes over to Lovino and starts stroking his head in a very motherly like manner . You giggle at that"EHHH?! ANTONIO!!!!" Lovino's face turns red and whacks him."Ouch!" Antonio steps back and comes back to his seat
Romano x Reader - Cowardly Confession [APH]BAM!The noise was so loud and sudden that it caused the cheerful Italian to drop his fork of pasta and jump from his seat. He looked over worriedly at the one who made the startling noisehis brother. Romano had banged his head hard on the table (it sounded like it hurt a lot too) and was now muttering a string of curses in Italian."Ve~ Fratello, what's wrong?" Veneziano asked his older sibling."I can't do it," was the muffled response.Veneziano tilted his head to the side while wearing a confused expression. "Can't do what...?""I can't confess to that ragazza!" Romano exclaimed, standing up abruptly causing the wooden chair he was previously sitting on to fall and clatter on the floor."Which ragazza?"Romano remained quiet for a few seconds before mumbling your name. Veneziano's face lit up almost instantly once he heard it, and he grinned widely."Ve~! So fratello likes [Name] after all!" Veneziano cheered, raising his arms up high as tho

Also the Hetalia characters in my stories are human to prevent confusion.-------------------------------It was a typical summer evening. You'd decided to wear something cool as the heat of the day was still present. A simple red short-sleeved shirt and cream-colored shorts with leather flip-flops. The fireflies were out tonight and the crickets were chirping. The perfect time for a walk in the park.There were people all over the place, some trying to catch fireflies with their children, and others using them as an excuse to get romantic. Speaking of romance . . you hadn't seen your crush at all today. The feisty brunette with the odd curl on the right-side of his head. He'd normally be at the Italian restraunt which his family owned.Just as the thought of Italian food c
LSH: I Won't Say I'm In Love (RomanoxReader)I Won't Say I'm In LoveRomanoxReaderA nostalgic sigh escaped your lips as you gazed down at the picture of you and the Vargas twins. Feliciano's arm was slung over your shoulders, a happy grin on his goofy face that always made you smile. You own lips were curved into a small smile, but it wasn't because of the happy-go-lucky brother to your left.Lovino Vargas had a rare smirk on his lips and, though his arms were crossed loosely over his chest, happiness shone in his amber eyes. You were so lost in gazing at the handsome Italian in the photo that you didn't notice the three men walk into your house until they towered over you."Hey (F/n)~" one of them, Gilbert, chirped down to you. The picture frame clattered from your hands to the carpeted floor that you were sitting on.You looked up to see Gilbert, Francis, and Antonio all standing over you, sly smirks on their faces. "How the Hell did you monsters managed to slither in here? And don't even pretend to have squeezed your f
RomanoxReader - More Than Enough"Why didn't you tell me?" You asked, worriedly.You were over at Lovino's house after he had skipped school, causing you to worry. He wasn't always like this; even if he did have an attitude and swore his mouth off at the ones who loved him most, he never meant harm, or to do something as drastic as skipping school. You went straight over to his house afterschool to see him moping around on the floor of the living room."Nobody would care." He replied back in a monotone voice, flipping through the television channels."Okay, now that's bullshit Lovi. I would care! Your brother would care! Antonio and Grandpa Rome would care!" You reasoned. At that moment, Feliciano entered the room to stand beside you in the doorway."Ay, fratello""Get the fuck out," Lovino snapped, tossing a pillow directly at Feli's face, causing him to flee into the next room. You felt kind of honoured that Lovino hadn't chucked a pillow at your face yet, telling you to leave.You stared at him until he was f

You smirked as you jumped over the couch, and surged past the doorway onto the wooden floors of the dining room. Romano stomped in after you, "Give a' me the keys ragazza!" He said sticking his hand out expectantly. You just smirked in reply and swung the keys 'round your finger. Oh how easily he was played. "I'm going to a' tell you one a' last time idiota!" he said stomping his foot for emphasis and pointing at your cheek. You giggled and made your way behind the table, Romano facing you on the other side. Lightly drumming your fingers on its glossy surface you turned to Romano and just smirked again. It was all really too much fun! He always got this mad, and he would always chase after you until you gave him what he wanted, it was too fun to get a reaction out of him like this! Romano's gaze intensified as he set his hands on the
Clueless Idiota (RomanoxReader)You were sitting in a café, waiting for one of your good friends, Lovino "Romano" Vargas, to arrive. You never really got why he wanted people to call him that. He told you it reminded him of his late mother who made things with Romano cheese and tomatoes (his two favorite ingredients) a lot. He didn't really want people to call him "Tomato" (though his cousin, Antonio, did so anyways) so he stuck with Romano. Why this crossed your mind, you didn't know. Maybe it was because you had some feelings for the southern Italian man? Yes, you had feelings for him and you weren't going to lie to yourself about it, but you never could tell anyone else though.As you were daydreaming, Romano had sat across from you, waiting for you to come out of your reverie. At first, he would bark at you to come out of them, but you just yelled back which caused many fights between you two. Then, Romano, being the gentleman he is, decided to stop yelling and just wait.

Steering WheelWe have 261 Items for Steering Wheel In-stock.
Select your Steering Wheel vehicle from the list below.
Select your Steering Wheel brand from the list below.
As a driver, you know how crucial the steering wheel is to the overall design and function of your vehicle. No matter how sleek and elegant a car is, if its driving wheel looks horrible, its coolness just plummets to negative. If you're planning on customizing your car's wheel, you have to think about your options very carefully. Remember that a bad hand wheel is not only difficult to control but a source of nagging discomfort as well. So when shopping for a new wheel, be sure to look for one that fits perfectly-not too small, not too big. It should fit flush inside without taking up so much space. Be careful not to be too dazzled by shining spokes 'cause they can actually prevent you from maneuvering the car in the easiest manner. The surface of the wheel must provide your hands with great traction, so your grasp doesn't slip even when your palms get sweaty. Needless to say, it should also be extremely durable. Finally, its design must complement and enhance the look of your vehicle and not stick out like it doesn't belong there. The great news is we have a steering wheel with all of these superb qualities here at Auto Parts Warehouse. We offer the biggest discounts in the industry and our super secure and fast shipping is bound to amaze you. So go ahead and shop for a new steering wheel today to put the crown of your new custom look in place.

Choosing the Right Steering Wheel Replacement
Since the steering wheel is what we constantly use in our car, it�s really quite inevitable for it to wear out in time. Maintaining proper upkeep is an option for you to keep the wheel look good as new, but if simple cleaning and repairing can�t help it, then it�s about time that you buy yourself a new one. Of course, there are probably hundreds of brands out there. And with the sea of companies in the industry, you�re left with decisions, decisions, and decisions. To narrow it down, we have come up with a guide to help you out when looking for a brand new steering wheel.
Before going to the store�
- It�s a good idea to know the measurements of your old steering wheel as a basis for your new one. You wouldn�t want to purchase one that�s either too big or too small.
- Your vehicle came in with a steering wheel with measurements that are just perfect for your car. You want to make sure that the new one that you�re going to buy won�t block your view. Remember, you must have a clear sight of the road in front of you to avoid accidents.
- Know which store you�re going to buy your new wheel. There are various auto shops in the market; however, some of them may not have the steering wheel that you are looking for. Another option is visiting online automotive retailers, wherein you can just easily purchase a new wheel with just a click of the mouse.
When at the store�
- Check what style of steering wheel that you want to install in your ride. In fact, there are different designs for you to choose from and it all depends on your preference which one you�d like to buy.
- Know what kind of finish you want your wheel to have. If you want something luxurious-looking, then go for the leather texture. If you want a classic look, then the wood would be a great touch to your vehicle. There are other different styles of steering wheel and you better be sure that the one you�ll end up choosing will perfectly match the interiors of your car.
- Since you already know the measurements of your previous wheel, then you better make sure that you purchase the one with similar measurements. You wouldn�t want one that looks bulky or too tiny; instead, buy one that fits perfectly in your hands and would definitely enable you to steer at your comfort.
Now that you�ve gone through these tips, you have an idea as to what kind of steering wheel you want for your car. The decision is now in your hands. Have a great shopping!

Steer the Gear
The steering wheel is probably one of the easiest parts to replace to be able to make your vehicle look good as new. Since it�s the most used component, we cannot avoid the fact that it will wear out soon. Being the most visible part, you�d want to keep it in top shape at all times. There are a lot of different textures for steering wheels, be it leather, vinyl, or wood, and these have various kinds of maintenance. However, leather wheels give the vehicle a luxurious touch to it yet somehow really easy to restore.
Difficulty level: easy
Here�s what you�ll need:
- Acetone
- Ammonia
- Plastic sheet
- Spray bottle
- Rubbing alcohol
- Gel super glue
- 240-grit sandpaper
- Plastic scouring pad
- Adhesion promoter
- Water sealer
- Satin finish clear coat
- Automotive leather spray dye
Step 1: Protect. You wouldn�t want to mess up the other components of your car so it�s best to keep the surrounding area protected. So get your plastic sheet and cover the neighboring areas that may be affected while repairing the leather steering wheel.
Step 2: Mix n� Rub. Grab the spray bottle and mix 2 ounces each of ammonia, rubbing alcohol, and acetone. Spray it all over the wheel using a plastic scouring pad. Make sure you remove the filth, oil, or stain.
Step 3: Dry and Fill in. You wouldn�t want to use the wheel while it�s wet, so let it dry. After, inspect for any damages or holes that can be filled in. If there are, grab the gel super glue and fill each hole and wait for it to become tacky. Position the loose leather fibers to cover the hole to be able to create a patch over it and, sand down the leather using the 240-grit sandpaper.
Step 4: Cover. Grab the water sealer and apply it all over the leather and let it dry before you add a coat of adhesion promoter. With these materials, you�d be able to get a vibrant leather steering wheel. Cover the wheel with leather spray dye. For better results, apply more than one coat.
Step 5: Spray and you�re done! After the whole process, spray a layer of satin finish clear coat over the dye and let it dry before taking off the plastic. And with that, you can start manning the wheel again!
Tips to Keep in Mind:
- Some people focus too much on the fa�ade and completely forgetting everything at the back. So don�t forget the back part of the steering wheel to complete the whole process.
- Though you may find large leather gaps, don�t try to fill in everything. This will result to an uneven dye job. Good luck!

J.J. Redick | SG | New team: Portland Trail Blazers
Suggested contract: $26 million over 4 years (AAV: $6.5 million/year); 2013-14: $6.1 million; 2014-15: $6.4 million; 2015-16: $6.6 million; 2016-17: $6.9 million
... What the Blazers desperately lacked this season was depth; they posted one of the league's worst bench production, and were forced to play a lot of relatively inexperienced players like Luke Babbitt and Will Barton on the wings. They also lacked perimeter shooting, ranking 19th in the league in 3-point percentage this season, with only one player shooting better than 38 percent from 3-point range (Wes Matthews, 40 percent).
Redick has established himself as not only one of the premier 3-point shooters in the league (career 39.0 3-point percentage), but also as a versatile contributor as pick and roll ballhandling option and as an underrated defensive player. He'd not only add veteran leadership to an extremely young team, he'd also fill in those on-court needs and bring depth to the backcourt, either as a reserve or as a starting (sending Matthews to the bench).
Cap-wise, Portland would have to waive Jared Jeffries and Sasha Pavlovic (both fully unguaranteed deals) and renounce free agents Babbitt, Nolan Smith and Elliot Williams (high likely since their team options were all declined prior to the start of the season). They'd also have to come to terms fairly quickly with free agent Eric Maynor to reduce his cap hold to a more manageable number (my suggested contract for him was 2 years, $5 million for an AAV of $2.5 million). Taking those steps would allow them to sign Redick to a deal starting at $6.1 million, while still giving them the flexibility to make a decision on J.J. Hickson without having to renounce his rights.
An additional problem: Dame likes to play off the ball (as Wes' backup) for stretches. And Stotts likes this arrangement. There's no question it helps Dame's stats. So, does that leave room for the likes of Reddick?
Redick is a quality 6 man and a decent defender. Lillard is a starting pt guard, big difference. Lillard cannot continue to play the minutes he's played this season and the reason he's sliding to the 2 now is because we don't have a scorer coming off the bench behind Wes. We need a 20pt 6man that will build a lead when the starters rest, not to burn out the starters like we have this season. I think Redick is perfect for this team as well.
sorry for the double post
I think Wesley does everything that Reddick can and has more strength getting to the rim. The Blazers also have Barton and hopefully Elliot Williams as backups at shooting guard. Reddick is a great shooter, but I think the Blazers should focus on finding a big man to protect the paint in free agency.

ANGELS CLAIM AL WEST TITLESeptember 17th, 2014, 9:40 pm by BY JEFF FLETCHER
ANAHEIM - The Angels locked up their first division title in five years on the arm of the last pitcher you would expect.
C.J. Wilson, who has arguably had the worst season relative to his talent on the Angels, pitched seven masterful innings to lead the Angels to a 5-0 victory over the Seattle Mariners on Wednesday night.
Shortly after the Angels finished off their major-league leading 95th victory, the Oakland A's ...

[Kushina:] So that's how it is… Thank you for telling me. Just one last question—
[Kushina:] I heard you were my son's… girlfriend? Any truth to that?
[Kushina:] Thought so.
Not that Naruto is that bad or anything, but really. Dating's the least of anyone's concerns right now. …Besides, I know where I stand in the case of my feelings.
To lie about them again… it isn't worth it.
If I met her and circumstances allowed it, I'd would heal her first and foremost if needed, then get her up to date on the current situation, and possibly tell her Naruto's whereabouts. Otherwise, I'd continue fighting and have Katsuyu take care of her if needed. I would like to believe that we'd get along and that Kushina Uzumaki is more than a capable Kunoichi.
Though I wouldn't put it past her to assume the same thing as Naruto's dad.

We are happy to welcome Sylvie Granotier—author, actress, traveler—to this blog. She wrote La Rigole du Diable, which is now being translated. Here, she talks a little about what has influenced her life as a writer: growing up in several places, her father's death, an encounter with Grace Paley, and finally settling down between Paris and Creuse, a remote area in central France and the setting for her latest novel.
I spent my childhood in Paris, my early teenage years in Morocco, and when we finally settled in Paris, I had unwittingly become a nomad.
At the age of 16, I passed my baccalauréat [French secondary education final examination, marking the end of high school]. The same year I won a first prize as a budding stage actress. Still, I had to earn a living because I had decided to live on my own and go to university, so I did odd jobs—supermarket cashier, bank clerk, teacher, babysitter. I studied a bit of philosophy, a bit of law and mainly French literature.
My father died in his forties, and as if an anchor had broken, I went on the road.
I fell in love with an American, who is still my closest friend, and we lived together for seven years. We lived in New York and San Francisco, had a spell in Afghanistan, and then came back to Paris where I became a model. That made traveling easier. I worked all over Europe, spent some time in Brazil and finally, totally by chance, because the director had seen my picture as a model, I was offered a part in a TV film. I hated modeling and was ecstatic to be back where I had started: acting. I acted on stage and did a lot of movies.
My life was soon to change again.
I had read Grace Paley's short stories while in the States. She had never been translated into French. I wanted to do a stage adaptation and began by translating her in French. Well, I ended up doing the whole book Enormous Changes at the Last Minute. My translation got published and Grace came to Paris.
I admired and loved her even before meeting her, so when she seemed to like my small apartment better than a hotel, I was overjoyed to sleep on my couch and spend so much unexpected time with her.
I had never dared even think of becoming a writer, yet suddenly, the idea of producing a small pebble seemed possible. The dare—there always is one, I think—was to write a thriller, one of those books I loved, a page-turner that cures you for a few hours of all the worries and anxieties that darken our days and nights. Grace flew back to New York and I started my first novel: Courrier Posthume. Writing and getting published was hard work, but I loved every minute of it. I felt I now knew where I truly belonged.
Meanwhile I met my husband, a great stage actor, and we had two boys who are now both students—one in acting, the other in graphic arts. My husband and I are now separated, but I still admire and like him enormously.
So I wrote novels, went on acting, though less when the kids were small, and I got more and more engrossed in the process of inventing stories, finding the right way to tell them. From time to time I work on film scripts, because I love movies, but I'm very cautious. They demand a lot of time and energy, the same kind I need for my novels, which remain my priority.
I've published fourteen novels, written many short stories for magazines, and three years ago, I bought my house in Creuse. I've lived in Paris most of my life, and never tire of its beauty. My friends are here, my agent, my publisher. I love its museums and galleries, its numerous bookstores, the amazing variety it offers in terms of movies and plays. In Creuse, I'm in the middle of nowhere, a nowhere filled with nature both tamed and wild. I fell in love with that part of France 18 years ago. It is the only place, I felt, that could make this nomad sedentary. As with writing, I feel I belong in that mysterious place. Time flows at its own pace, nature overpowers our attempts to discipline it, it puts life back in the right perspective, for me at least.

Young Berlin based fashion photographer Bastian Achard is making his debut on Ben Trovato with his story entitled "Aura" inspired by the german philosopher Walter Benjamin. Achard presents his personal interpretation of Benjamin's notion of aesthetics in a tale showcasing amazing silk dresses by the german fashion designer Dawid Tomaszewsk. Using long exposures, he's created a beautiful series of moving stills.
When and how did you end up shooting fashion?
I started expressing myself through photography in later stages of high school. I soon started working with people, rather than objects, and I find fashion photography to be the best way for me to transform my vision into a story-based statement. I'm always striving for a reference to support the depth in the work I produce.
Speaking of, describe how it was working with beautiful Eilika @ PMA.
Eilika did a great job. Since I particularly looked for a redheaded model, she perfectly completed the story. I also knew that it was indispensable to have a girl with charisma to support me achieving the vision I had.
How about the rest of the team? Have you worked together before?
I collaborated with Theo a couple of times before. Since we understand each other artistically, I always enjoy working with him. However, it was the first time for me working with Isabella. She did a really good job and I think we will team up again for further projects.
Anders, the retoucher, could perfectly assign to my idea of Aura and could get the best out of my images.
Theo [hair & makeup], tell us about your hair and makeup in Aura.
I wanted the model to look really elegant. For this, I chose a very nude & fresh make-up and pinned up her hair to accent the color and volume. With a breeze of 19th century, the whole look supports the silk dresses and creates a really pompous look.
Isabella [stylist], you chose Dawid Tomaszewski's amazing designs, pretty much setting the scene for Aura. Tell us about your styling and how it aligned with Achard's idea.
While I chose a very puristic direction for the set with Bastian, I tried to fulfil the images with more romantic dresses comparing to the essay piece by Walter Benjamin. As I was looking for a big but even light and silky, heavenly long dress which is in motion in nearly every position, I remembered these pieces from Berlin Fashionweek AW 11/12 and thought they would perfectly fit to the content of Bastian's vision.

Gastric bypass surgery is performed to help morbidly obese patients lose significant amounts of weight.
Gastric bypass surgery is performed to help morbidly obese patients lose significant amounts of weight.
Many of our patients seek our services so that they will be healthier and better able to enjoy their family lives. It has been shown that if a parent sets a good health example, the children will be more likely to follow. However, what if you are considering weight loss surgery and you don't yet have a family, but want to start one?
The answer, fortunately, is that gastric sleeve surgery does not prohibit pregnancy or make it more dangerous. In fact, it can dramatically improve the health of a woman who hopes to have children, making it more likely that her pregnancy will be uneventful and her baby healthy.
There are several reasons for this. For example, obesity may increase the likelihood of gestational diabetes in the mother. This can have potential consequences including premature birth, high birth weight, low blood sugar in the newborn, and delivery complications. If an obese woman loses weight before conceiving a child, she may be more likely to have a normal pregnancy. The chance of gestational diabetes causing serious complications are fairly low, but it pays to achieve a healthy birth weight in anticipation of pregnancy, giving mother and child every chance possible.
For women who have repeatedly tried to lose weight but have remained obese, gastric sleeve surgery might provide an answer. This operation involves the removal of part of the stomach; the portion that remains is about the shape and size of a banana. For reasons owing to the anatomy of obese people, this surgery is sometimes preferred over other options for very obese patients. Aside from the removal of stomach tissue, no modifications to the internal organs, so barring complications, nothing is done that would prevent pregnancy or make it hazardous.
Surgical complications do exist, and these may complicate future pregnancy plans. However, if you are a surgical candidate, the health risks of remaining obese are much more serious than those of gastric sleeve surgery, and can be just as damaging to the chances of a healthy pregnancy. Doctors recommend that women wait one year after surgery to have children, as the body needs time to recover, reestablish a healthy weight, and remain steady for some time before undergoing the dramatic changes of pregnancy.
At L.A. Bariatrics, we have treated many women who have gone on to have happy, healthy families. We would be happy to address any questions you have about pregnancy and the sleeve gastrectomy. Please call (800) 491-1977 to find out how we can help you!

The Toronto Scottish Regiment is an Army Reserve unit based at Fort York Armoury in Toronto. The Army Reserve trains for, and provides support to the Regular Force. As an example members of the Regiment have served with United Nations Peacekeeping Forces and with Canadian Forces Humanitarian Assistance Missions in Bosnia, Cambodia, Croatia, Cyprus, Haiti, Kosovo, Namibia, The Golan Heights, and Rwanda. In Canada, members of the Regiment have deployed and provided assistance during the Winnipeg flood of 1997, the Eastern Ontario Ice Storm of 1998, and the Snow Storm that crippled Toronto in January 1999. In the winter of 1999 a number of soldiers were deployed on Operation Abacus, the Canadian Forces contingency plan for any Y2K developments. Several members have volunteered and made a significant contribution to more than one mission or deployment.
|75th Bn Canadian Expeditionary Force
The Toronto Scottish Regiment traces its roots to a cavalry unit, the 9th Mississauga Horse formed in1906. During the First World War the unit became the 75th (Mississauga) Battalion, Canadian Expeditionary Force. During the war over 5,500 soldiers served in the battalion in France and Belgium. In the fall of 2003 the Regiment was authourized to establish a mission element unit in Mississauga, in effect returning their roots. At the annual New Years Levee and contingent from the Regiment visited Mississauga City Hall and passed through the reception line in the Council Chambers greeting the Mayor and Councillors. Later in the year the unit conducted a food drive raising 7,810 lbs of non-perishable food and delivered it to the the Mississauga Food Bank, making it the single largest donator that they had last Christmas.

The active unit of The Toronto Scottish Regiment was disbanded on 31st December 1945 reverting to an Infantry Militia Regiment. A large number of the members from the war remained with the regiment attending Tuesday night parades at Fort York Armoury. Highlights in the history of any regiment are periodic visits by their Colonel-in-Chief and the Toronto Scottish has been fortunate to have been visited often. Her Majesty's first visit after the war was in 1962.

In 1974 she presented a new Queen's Colour with the Canadian Flag replacing the Union Jack before a huge audience at the CNE Stadium. Her Majesty has visited Her regiment again in 1979, 1981,1985 and 1989. In October 2000, The Toronto Scottish Regiment was granted the secondary title of, Queen Elizabeth the Queen Mother's Own.

LCol Colin Harbottle, who had taken command of the battalion soon after the death of LCol Beckett on 1st March 1917, had been lobbied by a number of former officers and men to have the 75th become a permanent unit in the Canadian Militia. In May 1920 the government authorized the forming of the Mississauga Regiment to perpetuate the traditions of the 75th Bn CEF. The Mississauga Regiment was re-designated The Toronto Scottish Regiment on 1st September 1921, becoming a permanent unit of the Non-Permanent Active Militia. After becoming The Toronto Scottish Regiment, LCol Harbottle sought and was granted affiliation with The London Scottish Regiment in England and adopted the London Scottish tartan, Hodden Grey. The tartan had been selected by the London Scottish's founder Lord Elcho in 1859. He opted to dress his soldiers in the muted heather tones of Scotland. In 1937 Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth consented to become the regiment's Colonel-in-Chief. On 22nd May 1939, during the Royal Tour of Canada, Her Majesty presented new Regimental Colours to The Toronto Scottish Regiment on the campus of the University of Toronto.

On the 21st April 1940, the Regiment was the first Canadian Army reserve unit to mount the King's Guard at Buckingham Palace. An advance party of the Regiment landed in Brest, France on June 12, 1940 before being ordered to withdraw. On 26 November of that year, two members of the Regiment with their Vickers medium machine-gun, shot down a German Dornier 17 bomber that was attacking a town on the south coast of England. This was the first enemy aircraft shot down by the Canadian Army in the Second World War. During the war Her Majesty visited the Regiment on five occasions, three times during 1940, once in 1941, and again in 1943. The Toronto Scottish Regiment was designated as a machine-gun battalion, because of this the Regiment did not fight as a complete unit during the war. They provided fire support for every action involving the 2nd Canadian Division. Members of the Regiment took part in the raid on Dieppe in August 1942. After D-Day until the cease-fire on 7th May 1945, The Toronto Scottish was on the continent of Europe supporting many 2nd Canadian Division units, at one time unit members were fighting in three different countries at the same time. During the war 59 members of the Regiment were decorated and 42 Mentioned-in-Despatches. Casualties were 88 killed, 1 missing in action and 312 wounded. On the 28th October 1945 the Scottish returned to Toronto and marched to the University Armoury and was dismissed.
75th Battalion Canadian Eexpeditionary Force (CEF)
The Toronto Scottish Regiment was raised on the 1st July 1915, as the 75th (Mississauga) Battalion, Canadian Expeditionary Force (CEF) by Lieutenant Colonel Samuel Beckett. Within three weeks over 1,500 personnel had been recruited and by March 1916 the Battalion was fully trained and sailed for Liverpool. In August the Regiment moved to France and then on to Belgium. From the summer of 1916 and for the next two years the 75th Bn CEF took part in every major engagement involving the Canadian Corps. Over 5,500 soldiers served in the battalion during World War One, 1,049 were killed including LCol Beckett. The 75th Bn CEF was awarded 16 Battle Honours of which 10 are emblazoned on the Regimental Colour. Two hundred and forty two decorations were awarded to all ranks including a Victoria Cross to Captain Bellenden Hutcheson, the Medical Officer, who had previously been awarded the Military Cross.

Amazon has ordered five original series, including the political comedy Alpha House starring John Goodman.
Amazon Studios made all of its 14 pilots available for free back in April, and used feedback from Amazon and LOVEFiLM customers to help decide which pilots would be among the company's first original series.
Amazon unveiled 14 new original pilots last week, and according to TVGuide.com's poll, Alpha House, Zombieland and Onion News Empire are the early favorites.

"Delphinium Christine Snape!!!" Tobias roared. Severus shuddered. Selvyn shrunk into the corner ofhissister's room.Delphinium sighed and went to see what her father wanted.
"Yes, sir?" she said. Tobias was red in the face from anger.
"What is this!?" Tobias said, shaking Delphinium's Hogwarts robes in her face.
"My robes, sir." Delphinium said, politely as she could.
"Why are they not in your room?" Tobias snarled.
"Mother asked me to bring them out so she could wash them." Delphinium answered.
"Eileen!!" Tobias called. Eileen stepped into thesitting room from the kitchen.
"Did you tell Delphinium to bring these wretched things out?" Tobias asked. Eileen nodded. Tobias started raging at the frail woman, forgetting all about Delphinium. The twelve-year-old slunk back up the stairs and into her room.
"Are they fighting again?" Severus asked, turning big black eyes on his older sister. Delphinium nodded. Selvyn trembled under Delphinium's desk. Demphinium wrapped her arms around her blonde little brother and lifted him from his hiding place.
"I can't wait to go to Hogwarts, Delphie." Severus said, sitting on Delphinium's bed.
"Nither can I, Sev." Delphinium said, sitting next to Severus and stroking Selvyn's hair.
"I just wish it lasted all year. . ." Severus trailed off.
Delphinium smiled at Severus and patted his shoulder. There was a soft knock on the bedroom door.
"Come in." Delphinium said, sitting Selvyn on the bed next to her and sitting up straight.
Eileen slipped into the room, barely opening the door and then closing it behind her. There was a huge bruise on her left arm and her right eye seemed to be a bit swolen.
"Are you kids okay?" she asked quietly.
"Yes, mother." Severus and Delphinium said. Selvyn still clung to his sister.
"I'll miss you two while you're off at Hogwarts." Eileen said, sitting nex to Severus and wraping her arms around him.
"We'll miss you too." Delphinium said. "Why do you stay with him, mother?" she blurted out, tears coming to her eyes.
Eileen was silent. Her three children looked up at her expectingly.
"I don't know. . ."she whispered.
"Would you like me to help you with the clothes, mother?" Delphinium asked, seeingthat the subject at hand made everyone uncomfortable.
"Would you, honey?" Eileen asked, stoking Delphium's hair.
"Of course." Delphinium said. "Come on, Severus."
Delphinium's little brothers stayed close to her on their way to the kitchen.
The clothes washingsetup was this: Delphinium hand-washed the clothes in the kitchen sink while Eileen used magic to dry and foldthem, and Severus sat at the kitchen table with Selvyn in his lap.
Without warning, Delphinium started singing. It was an upbeat song that the entire family (with the exception of Tobias) had grown to like.
Delphinium had a nice voice. Not exactly music star material, but she was the best singer in the world to her brothers.
Selvyn started dancing durring the first chorus. It was really cute. Eileen sang the lower harmony. Severus was too shy to do anything.
Delphinium abandoned the clothes and tried to coax Severus out of his chair.
A loud bang stopped the family's little performance. Tobias came in and looked like he was about to attack Selvyn next. Before Tobias could get too close, Delphinium slapped him across the facewith a set of soaked, soapy robes.
After a huge shouting match between Dephinium and Tobias, Severus and Dephinium were turned outside and Selvyn was told to take a nap.
"Great ugly git." Delphinium mumbled as she and Severus walked down the street.
"Why, Delphie?" said Severus. "Why do you get yourself into these things?"
"I'm his daughter." Delpinium said. "I have a lot of his personality."
"You're better than him." Severus said.
"You sound like mother." Delphinium said.
"No I don't." Severus said.
"Yes you do." Delphinium said. Severus went to pinch Delphinium, but she saw it coming and sidestepped.
"Too slow!" she taunted. Severus ran at her. She sidestepped again and ran down the street, Severus on her heels.
"Gotta be faster to catch me!" Delphinium called.
"You're dead, Delphinium Snape!" Severus shouted, grinning from ear to ear.
Dephinium laughed out loud as she ran. Severus tackled her in the middle of a little playground and pinched her arm.
"What. . . ?"
"Hello, little Miss Evans!" Delphinium said, waving at Lily Evans, who sat on the swings and stared at Severus and Delphinium like she had never seen anything so weird.
Severus scrambled up and brushed the dirt off of his clothes.
"Looking forward to your first year at Hogwarts?" Delphinium asked, taking the swing next to Lily.
"Yes, I am." Lily said. "What year are you going into again, Delphinium?"
"Third." Delphinium said. "I turn thirteen next month."
Lily smiled. So did Severus.
"I don't think Severus wants to go." Delphinium joked. "It's not like he talks about it just as much as he talks about you."
"Delphinium!" Severus squeeked, his voice an octaive higher than usual. Delphinium giggled.
"Just you wait, kids." she said, grinning. "You guys are going to love Hogwarts."
