North Carolina Rep. Walter Jones is best known for calling for the renaming of "French fries" as "freedom fries." That was during the buildup to the Iraq War when the French were standing in the way of the U.S. invasion. Jones was pro-war because he believed the Bush administration intelligence on weapons of mass destruction by Saddam Hussein.
As no evidence of WMDs appeared, Jones felt betrayed. One of his latest bills is to allow the prosecution of presidents who intentionally manipulate intelligence reports to make a case for war. The bill has died in committee through the action of fellow Rep. Lamar Smith. Jones isn't upset with Smith though. His focus remains on presidential administration.
"I have no malice towards Lamar, I have respect for him. But that again is the problem. Congress will not hold anyone to blame. Lyndon Johnson's probably rotting in hell right now because of the Vietnam War, and he probably needs to move over for Dick Cheney."
Johnson manipulated the Gulf of Tonkin incident to engage the U.S. into the disastruous Vietnam War. Comparing Johnson and Cheney is not an unreasonable association. Both are culpable at not being honest with the American people.
Yet there is a way to punish a president and vice-president who lie to the American people. That is impeachment. It's something that must be used with some judiciousness because all presidents lie. They must for national security, their political agenda and politics. Causing wars is an example when that lying is impeachable. Even if Jones had his law, the political will may not be there to impose it, just as it is not there for impeachment in most cases. Of course, if a president lies about an affair with an intern that is impeachable, while causing thousands of American deaths is ignored.
Jones' comments can be found around the 35:40 mark.

A program is raising some eyebrows and questions with how they are "preventing" teen girls from having unplanned pregnancies. In short, they get paid to not get pregnant. No, really. The program is a slightly more complex than that, though not much.
Girls in the program attend 90-minute meetings every week at which they receive lessons in abstinence and the use of contraceptives — and they receive $7 every week they do not get pregnant. The money is deposited into a fund that's collectible when they enroll in college.
Like some others, I have some questions and reservations.
Question #1: Why do programs address things like contraceptives but not about the cycle signs that every woman experiences. Why don't they talk about things like your fertile mucous? Why don't they tell girls that various discharges are normal so they're not scared to ask if something changes? Why don't they mention things like Basal Body Temperature? Why aren't we educating women about their own bodies?
Question #2: Why aren't boys offered such a thing? Someone mentioned that is because you can't "prove" that a boy didn't father a baby. Wrong answer. It's called DNA. If we're counseling young mothers to take responsibility for their actions and, as such, calling the baby's father to take responsibility, it shouldn't be an issue.
Reservation #1: Will this lead to abortions had by young girls in secret? While North Carolina mandates parental consent for abortion, will their parents help them get one, quietly and without counseling, so that these girls can keep receiving money for college? I mean, money is a big lure, especially in this economy. Would parents who would otherwise help their daughter get on her feet and raise a child push that daughter to have an abortion simply to keep the funding?
Reservation #2: If we're just telling them about abstinence and birth control, are we not discussing the other repercussions of their decisions regarding sex? I'm not just talking about STD's. I'm talking about the emotional fall out from a decision to have sex too early. I'm talking about getting pregnant and having to choose between an abortion, parenting and adoption. I'm talking about the grief that comes with abortion or adoption. I'm talking about all of that other stuff. Is this really a program that could benefit these girls in more ways than just how to take the pill or when to say no? There's so much more to sex.
Interestingly, I never would have been eligible for this program.
Enrollment in the program — which meets separately twice a week for two groups, ages 12-14 and 15-18 — is at capacity with 24 young women. To participate, girls must have never been pregnant, be enrolled in school, have a desire to attend college and have had a sister who gave birth before age 18.
Because I'm the oldest child and do not have any sisters, this program would have shunned me. But, there I was, at twenty-two, pregnant, still without knowledge of how my cycle worked and unsure of where to go from there. Excluding only children or children without sisters doesn't seem to be of benefit to a large number of teen girls.
I think the program will fold eventually. I don't think it offers our teens enough information nor do I think they're going about it in a proper manner. Paying someone to not do something doesn't seem to be reinforcing the right themes.
Thoughts that don't involve name-calling?

Are Dollar Stores Good Buys?
Kyle is a member of The Motley Fool Blog Network -- entries represent the personal opinion of the blogger and are not formally edited.
Dollar stores are deep discount retail outlets that have become more popular with consumers in the wake of the financial crisis of 2008. This article discusses whether these outlets are also good buys for ordinary investors.
A brief overview of dollar stores
Dollar-store retail chains have become increasingly popular with consumers since the financial crisis. In so doing, these discount stores have gained market share from other retailers. This included so-called "big box" stores (think: Wal-Mart and Target) as well as grocery stores and national retail pharmacies like CVS and Walgreen.
By providing national brands, dollar stores have long captured low-income shoppers. But with their push into the discount retail sector, higher-income households have also bought in because of the "Great Recession." Further, these chains have also added groceries to their shopping carts and this has significantly boosted their growth.
In short, dollar stores are giving consumers reasons to buy. This is important since American consumers account for a significant portion of the U.S. economy. In the end, what's good for consumers is also good for investors. In sum, investors looking to buy into the retail sector should seriously consider plunking down some coin in dollar stores.
Let's take a look at some of the leading dollar stores in the retail sector.
Top three dollar stores in the U.S. retail sector
The three Kings of the dollar store retailers are Family Dollar Stores (NYSE: FDO), Dollar General (NYSE: DG), and Dollar Tree (NASDAQ: DLTR).
These deep discount retailers have outperformed their big-box peers in the first quarter of 2013. The big boys were off to a slow start this year, which they blamed on the payroll tax normalization, the federal budget sequester mandated by Congress, as well as the stormy weather. Of course, consumers are buying with caution as the economic recovery is moving in fits and starts.
And the dollar store kids have capitalized on consumers' cautionary spending. The obvious question here is whether the dollar store chains will keep these customers as the economy makes progress, the stubborn unemployment rate declines to normal historic levels, and consumers have more discretionary income and stronger purchasing power. That being said, dollar stores should be solid long-term buys for the ordinary investor.
Family Dollar recently reported that in the second quarter of FY 2013, net sales increased 17.7% to $2.89 billion, same-store sales were up by about 3%. Net income per diluted share for the quarter increased 5.2% to $1.21/share. Further, the leading dollar store has consistently paid dividends – a trend that should continue given its recent performance.
In fact, Family Dollar increased its dividend by more than 23% as the previous fiscal year ended. And a new $300 million share repurchase plan will help the retailer maintain solid earnings. Finally, the current share price is about $61.25 – well below the 52-week high of more than $74/share.
Meanwhile, Dollar General hit a speed bump this week. The company just reported that it expects "moderating sales growth" and a lower gross profit than previously anticipated. Shares were quickly pummeled and fell by more than 9% on Monday. Until now, Dollar General's share price has climbed about 10% this year on the heels of solid numbers reported earlier this year for FY 2012.
The retailer now calls for adjusted earnings per share of $3.22, down from its earlier call for $3.30. Shares have recovered a bit and the price is now hovering at $50, but this looks like a hold for the rest of this quarter. However, the discount chain previously announced a bold share repurchase authorization of $500 million which will enhance revenue and earnings growth in the long run.
Finally, Dollar Tree also recently reported solid Q4 2012 numbers with same-store sales rising 2.4%, diluted earnings per share of 26% along with an increase in net sales of about 15%. Overall, for 2012, the outfit said same-store sales increased 3.4% while net sales increased 11.5%.
Dollar Tree's revenue has climbed a bit more than 8%, which is better than the sector average of 6%. Moreover, its share price has climbed more than 20% this year. Shares are presently hovering at about $49, lower than the 52-week high that came close to $57/share, so there should be more room to grow here.
The bottom line
Dollar stores will continue to gain market share according to many analysts. And each of these outlets will continue to see long-term revenue growth, which means continued earnings growth. In other words, the discount kids offer good buys for both consumers and ordinary investors.

I was the slightest in the House --
I took the smallest Room --
At night, my little Lamp, and Book --
And one Geranium --
So stationed I could catch the Mint
That never ceased to fall --
And just my Basket --
Let me think -- I'm sure --
That this was all --
I never spoke -- unless addressed --
And then, 'twas brief and low --
I could not bear to live -- aloud --
The Racket shamed me so --
And if it had not been so far --
And any one I knew
Were going -- I had often thought
How noteless -- I could die --

Samsung's Galaxy S II is its fastest-selling phone - but you still can't buy one
Summary: Samsung's Galaxy S II may be the company's fastest-selling device, but that doesn't mean you can get your hands on one.
Samsung's slim Galaxy S II has clearly been a triumph. Samsung says it has shipped 3 million of the phones since the S II's May release, making the phone its fastest-selling device ever.
Little of that is a surprise, of course. Even in the U.S., where the phone has yet to arrive (or even land an official release date), the Galaxy S II has been pretty successful. By the end of April, Samsung said that it had amassed over three million pre orders for the phone.
But when will US consumers get their hands on one? That important little detail hasn't been dropped, though there was speculation in June that Verizon was planning to launch the phone later this month. That "speculation", however, was mostly due to a misstatement, so we know about as much about the S II's U.S. release date as we always have - next to nothing .

Dwindling Options for RadioShack
Timothy is a member of The Motley Fool Blog Network -- entries represent the personal opinion of the blogger and are not formally edited.
On July 11 shares of electronics retailer RadioShack (NYSE: RSH) fell by as much as 20% on news that the company was considering hiring a financial adviser in an attempt to fix its balance sheet. The stock recovered quite a bit later in the day, but it still sits well below its high of $4.28 per share reached in May. RadioShack is facing the challenge of remaining relevant and since 2012 has been unable to turn a profit. This has put strain on the company's finances, leading many to assume that a bankruptcy is inevitable.
But is there any value in RadioShack? Or should the company and the stock be left for dead?
A deteriorating balance sheet
Back in December I wrote an article about RadioShack, at a time when the stock was trading for $2.23 per share, which pointed out that the company's market capitalization was less than its current assets minus its total liabilities. This is called a net-net, and it's a pretty good indication that the stock is cheap. The stock nearly doubled from that time to its peak in May, and now it is right around that initial level again. But the company is worse off now than it was six months ago, thus warranting a second look at the balance sheet.
Q2 results won't be reported for a couple of weeks, but the situation after Q1 wasn't good. Revenue declined by 15.8% year-over-year while the net loss grew to $35 million from $8 million in the same period last year. Losses seem to be accelerating, making the picture quite a bit more dire than it was last December.
RadioShack is valued at about $250 million by the market. The company still has $435 million in cash, but $213 million in debt matures within a year and another $499 million matures after that. Now, if you simply take the current assets and subtract the current liabilities you arrive at $259 million, just about the current market capitalization. This value is essentially the liquidation value assuming that fixed assets are worthless.
The big problem with this is that it assumes things like inventory could be liquidated at the value carried on the books. This typically isn't true, though, and this issue is compounded by the fact that RadioShack has seen its inventory balloon over the last year. At the end of the first quarter last year inventory levels sat at $730 million. It now sits at $927 million even as revenue has declined. What does this mean? It means that RadioShack can't sell its merchandise.
In any liquidation scenario the inventory will likely be discounted significantly. If we discount the inventory by 50% the company is for all intents and purposes worthless. I expect that we'll see some inventory write-downs at some point.
This makes RadioShack shares undesirable at almost any price. That's not to say that the stock can't go up, but the company is in big trouble. Back in December, with the stock at $2.23 per share, the company was being valued at a 35% discount to the current assets minus total liabilities. Now there is no discount, and because losses are accelerating the stock looks more and more unattractive every day. The stock becomes interesting well below $2 per share, and paying more than that is more hopeful than anything else.
No turnaround in sight
RadioShack can probably survive for a year, maybe two, if losses continue. A turnaround at this point seems extremely unlikely. A big problem, I think, is that many people probably don't know what RadioShack even sells. Younger people especially have no reason to venture inside of a RadioShack, leaving the company's customer base dwindling. It's possible that someone will step up and buy the company, but there doesn't seem to be much benefit in doing so.
This is situation where a big-box format might actually be better. Best Buy (NYSE: BBY), which operates far larger stores than RadioShack, has been able to turn itself around under new management. The stock has rebounded sharply over the past six months, surpassing $30 per share for the first time since 2010, and improvements in the supply chain and the company's management structure are working to cut costs and improve competitiveness.
It's unclear what options RadioShack has. A resurgent Best Buy will draw even more customers away, and appealing to younger customers may very well be impossible for the company. Amazon (NASDAQ: AMZN) and other online retailers are mostly responsible for RadioShack's demise, and while Best Buy is making strides to improve its website and grow online sales RadioShack is not. Here's an example: on RadioShack's website the cheapest HDMI cable is $7.99 plus sales tax plus another $6.99 for shipping. Who in their right mind would order from RadioShack when the same item can be had at Amazon for around $3. Best Buy is also cheaper at about $4 with free shipping.
The bottom line
Buying shares of RadioShack is an unattractive proposition at this point. With no real push to sell online and no clear direction, RadioShack is just treading water until its demise. Inventory is out of control and debt payments are coming due. If the current cash burn continues it will be at most two years until the company is gone. I don't see a turnaround happening, and other than speculation there's just no reason to buy the stock.

William Howard Taft (September 15, 1857 – March 8, 1930) was the 27th President of the United States (1909–1913) and later the tenth Chief Justice of the United States (1921–1930). He is the only person to have served in both offices.
Born in 1857 in Cincinnati, Ohio, into the powerful Taft family, "Big Bill" graduated from Yale College Phi Beta Kappa in 1878 and from Cincinnati Law School in 1880. He worked in local nondescript legal positions until he was tapped to serve on the Ohio Supreme Court in 1887. In 1890, Taft was appointed Solicitor General of the United States and in 1891 a judge on the United States Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit. In 1900, President William McKinley appointed Taft Governor-General of the Philippines. In 1904, President Theodore Roosevelt appointed Taft Secretary of War with the hope that he might groom Taft, then his close political ally, into his handpicked presidential successor.
Riding a wave of popular support for fellow Republican Roosevelt, Taft won an easy victory in his 1908 bid for the presidency.

Students finish second at expoMay 23,2013Students finish second at expo
SPRINGFIELD Students at River Valley Technical Center in Springfield took second place last week at the Manufacturing Student Challenge at the Eastern States Exposition in West Springfield, Mass.
The students from the schools Mechanical Design and Innovation class disassembled, cleaned, refurbished, reverse engineered and re-assembled an original 1952 Jones and Lamson Model BC-7 Optical Comparator. The project was completed in four weeks.

Gerrans delighted with history-making Liege win
Winner of the 100th edition of the Liege-Bastogne-Liege one-day classic cycling race, Australia's Simon Gerrans, celebrates on the podium on April 27, 2014 in Liege - by Eric Feferberg
Such was the importance of the occasion that King Philippe of the Belgians was present to mark the race's start on Sunday.
And while home favourite Philippe Gilbert could only manage eighth in the race run around his home region, Aussie Gerrans powered home on the tough uphill finish at Ans to claim victory at 'La Doyenne'.
"To win in Liege-Bastogne-Liege is really special, but the fact that it's the 100th edition probably puts my name in the history of the race and that's a really special feeling and real honour to do that," said the 33-year-old.
"We had some fantastic results at the 100th Tour de France last year and now the 100th Liege, maybe that's a little omen for Orica-GreenEDGE."
Orica enjoyed a successful Tour in 2013, winning the fourth stage team time-trial around Nice, a day after Gerrans had sprinted to victory in the third stage from Ajaccio to Calvi in Corsica.
That was Gerrans's second individual Tour stage victory having also crossed the line first on stage 15 in 2008.
He is no stranger to major race wins having tasted success at both the Giro d'Italia and Vuelta a Espana in 2009.
He is the record three-time winner of the Tour Down Under while he took victory at the 2012 Milan-San Remo, which like Liege is one of the five 'Monuments' of cycling.
But Gerrans said this win in the Ardennes topped the lot.
"I've had some very beautiful victories over the past couple of years but I think Liege-Bastogne-Liege is really special to me because ever since I turned professional I've competed at Liege nearly every year," he said.
"It's a race I've always dreamt of wining, so because it's something I've been working towards for so long, it's such a fantastic feeling to win.
"So it's probably my most beautiful victory of my career."
Gerrans had said before the race that he thought he had less chances of winning than he did at the Amstel Gold Race the week before.
He had finished third three times at Amstel, including this year, whereas his best result in Liege had been a sixth place in 2009.
And he even admitted that there was a point during the race where he didn't think he would be able to keep up with the frenetic pace.
"Just after the Forges climb (about 35km from the end) that was a really difficult section of the race," he said.
"With the Redoute, Sprimonte and Forges (climbs) quite close together, I was really feeling the effects of that hard section of the race. I actually said to my team-mates 'I'm not feeling too good at the moment', but they stuck by me and supported me, and that really gave me the confidence to give it everything coming into the final.
"They placed me perfectly for the Roche-aux-Faucons (the penultimate climb) and again at Saint-Nicolas to give me every opportunity."
And now that he had surpassed his best result at Amstel, Gerrans admitted he might have to rethink his assessment of which race best suits him.
"I've always said that Amstel probably suits me a little bit better than Liege and my results have shown that: I've been on the podium now three times at Amstel Gold.
"I have had a couple of top 10 finishes at Liege but I've never arrived sprinting for the win.
"I think it was a matter of everything unfolding perfectly for me, that I did come in with the first guys and had enough of a sprint to finish it off.
"It's hard to say now which race has suited me more but I've always said I'd need a perfect day to win Liege and I think that's what happened."

You're leaving Wedding Paper Divas to see the Deal of the Day at our parent site, Tiny Prints.
You won't be able to dismiss this by usual means (escape or click button), but you can close it programatically based on user choices or actions.
"I was extremely impressed with the abundance of selections to choose from; the ease and promptness of the changes I requested; and the invitations were absolutely beautiful and well made. They also arrived before the expected delivery date."
"first off, Wedding Paper Divas are exactly what you need for all of your wedding invites, rsvps, rehearsal invites and more!! There are a ton of options for invites but this specific invite is PERFECT! it matches my wedding palette and it was just right. I will love it forever!!!!!"
"Our toughest decision so far has been picking out our wedding invitations. We finally agreed on this design and seriously are both so stoked on the final product. We wanted something with our picture on it since we didn't send out save the dates (short engagement) and this fit our nominalistic style perfectly. The designer who helped us made all if the changes I requested and sent over a wonderful proof, but nothing compared to the final product. I have a few other weddings to attend this year and our invitation is by far the nicest and cutest! I know I'm a bit biased but it's so good I can't help but be! Especially for the price - you can't beat it! The quality of the color paper picture text eye is high quality and so nice. We really couldn't be happier!!"
"Love how they did all the changes that I wanted. Like for example the words in the front and the color. They sent the review before making them!! love it !!"
"I love the invitations Wedding Diva's made for me! They are excellent paper quality and the pictures are very clear quality as well! I would definitely recommend this site to others!"

Letting Your Ex Go Once & For All
He moved on and is flaunting his new girlfriend on Facebook but you are still missing him. There is a hole in your heart and it is shaped like him. If anything the pain seems to grow sharper and you have no idea how to let go of the feelings you still have for him.
Is this you?
The Tarot can help you understand why you are still hooked on your ex and what you need to do in order to let go.
Here is what you do:
Separate out all the court cards and choose the one most which represents your ex. It could be the one that looks most like him or the one with the same star sign… or it could be the one with the most similar characteristics. For instance, if your ex was an incurable flirt and you broke up over infidelity, the Knight of Wands might be a good fit.
If you don't know which one to pick, check out 8 Types of W*ankers for a bit of light relief. It's OK to laugh about it all too – in fact, the more you laugh, the quicker you'll move on! If you still haven't found the perfect match after reading this, email me and I'll tell you which court card to use :)
Don't be afraid to enlist an honest friend for help with this reading, so you have someone to brainstorm with for ideas on how to move forward. He or she don't have to be expert Tarot readers.
Let's say you dated a Scorpio and feel that the Scorpio Knight of Cups is a good match:
You may also feel that he is a good match because he was quite literally your Knight in Shining Armour for a while.
Shuffle the rest of the deck, cut it and fan the cards out. Randomly choose three cards. Lay the first card out across the Knight of Cups.
Card 1 represents the emotional and energetic hook your ex still has in your heart, gut or solar plexus.
Card 2 represents what you need to let go of now. This could represent a thought pattern or habit.
Card 3 represents what you need to introduce into your life. The Universe abhors a vacuum and old, unhealthy habits need to be replaced with new, healthy habits.
Use a deck with fully illustrated pips such as the Witches Tarot above and allow your imagination to guide you (i.e. don't rely too heavily on traditional interpretations).
1. The 6 of Pentacles. You feel cheated because you were given this shiny present and you've never been happier. Then someone came and took it away, touching on deep childhood wounds. Perhaps you were made to feel as if you didn't deserve the gift of love. Examine the deeper underlying emotions and ask yourself if the thoughts that you entertain now and which are causing so much suffering are actually true.
2. The 7 of Pentacles. You need to stop waiting around for good things to happen or for him to come back. Not every seed that is planted bears fruit. Your relationship didn't blossom into something that you were able to enjoy long term. That doesn't mean you have to stick around and watch someone else pick the fruits on Facebook or down at your local.
3. The Chariot. Well, if there ever was a moving on card, this is the one! Now is the time to focus on your own goals and achievement. This card reminds you that you are powerful and in control of your own life. It reminds you that if you can dream it, you can achieve it, so get busy planning your future.
Regardless of which card you got in position three, the following questions will be helpful in terms of moving forward:
Where do you see yourself a month from now? A year from now?
Imagine where you want to be in vivid detail and feel how good it feels.
How can the information provided by the card in position 3 help you move forward?
List three practical things you can do to make your dreams come true. Make at least one of them something you can do on a daily basis.
Example of 3 practical things based on the message of The Chariot (which is all about self-confidence, success and empowerment): Put together a 5 year plan, practice daily positive affirmations, rise early and dress for success.
Yay!, now you have an action plan. Stick to it and watch yourself grow stronger and more confident every day!

Great spread lisa,and i do love them cards ,i see the link you have to buy them, is this for the cards and book?
Great spread Lisa!
Fantastic! I am going through this kind of pain and your post will help me a lot. Thank you, dearest Lisa. Have you ever thought writing a book on love and tarot? I would certainly buy it. :)
Hi, I just ended a psychologically abusive relationship exactly two weeks to the day today (Friday 9/7) after my going back and forth to him for just two weeks short of a year. Yes, I met him online. Yes, he would start out sweet everytime (so I'd be lured into thinking each time would be different). His true colors came out this time: he wants a submissive woman he can control like his 2nd ex-wife of 28 years apparently. Me? No way! So I am thinking The Reversed Knight of Swords from your suggestions of W*onkers (never heard that word before) best describes him.
From your website: "He is always right. Period. Never mind that he changed his mind just now. He was right then and he is right now and you are always totally wrong.
He doesn't date much. If he trawls the Internet dating sites it's mostly to find someone to troll and cyber bully. He hates women and doesn't really try to hide what he thinks of the highly irrational, much weaker sex." Will he ever score? He might occasionally pull because some chick thinks he's really really clever. Mostly he just rapes women. He did not harm me physically although he tried to "playfully" a couple of times but didn't succeed because he's disabled physically.
Feedback welcome – does this seem like a good choice?
Hi and thanks for your comments and comfort words. I met my soul friend online so I am not against it.
Great post Lisa ! I was also wondering, could any of the cards above give you advise to hold onto your ex ? The spread is designed to help a person move on, however, what If It was a true meant to be relationship going through a rough patch, then do we look out for card 3 for more info ?
It's a great spread!!
I got the 7 of swords in the first position. Huh? Pulled a clarifer. 7 of pents.
Ah…I think I get it. I keep wondering the "what if's" because a relationship never developed at all and I keep wondering what could have developed.
Then 10 of cups which I've always wanted happiness and security.
and 6 of wands, going out there and getting recognized.
Still lost on the third card. lol

My darling,
Please don't be a stranger. Please don't deprive me of your wonderful self. I shall go crazy without you.
Yours always, Jaqueline.
P.S. I do adore gifts.
Jared smiled a little before he dropped the letter to his chest. He could still feel her lips on his, her body molded into his. He could still smell the sweetness of her scent on the bed, on his skin and he could have laid there thinking of her but he knew he had things to do. Even if he didn't want to do any of it.
With a low groan he pulled himself out of bed and made his way to the washroom. He looked at his reflection, studying his face. He wondered in that moment what he looked like to other people. He saw himself as somewhat attractive, with his wide blue eyes that seemed to be what people looked at most. His facial was trimmed rather stylishly and the way he dressed definitely looked the part of a wealthy man.
He smiled a little to himself when he was reminded what it was that people truly thought of him. They were stunned at the sort of man he was, stunned that he had been accepted into society so easily. He didn't much fit the type that usually floated through these streets and so he stuck out, quite perfectly too.
He dressed rather quickly, surprised that he had managed in with such haste. He nearly jogged downstairs, feeling something light suddenly feel him despite all the talk he had spoken the night before. He was glad that he hadn't scared Jaqueline off with all of it.
Once he was downstairs he found that the house had been cleaned to perfection and that the staff was still at work on it. He smiled and wondered if they would continue doing thins so dedicated if he were to cut their wages. Oh, but that would be wicked, would it not?
He caught the butler as he was attempting to go into the dining room.
"Yes sir?" He asked Jared with awaiting eyes.
"My wife. Where is she?"
The butler seemed to be stumbling on what he would say. He was looking at Jared like he knew he shouldn't say a thing.
"Damn it man, spit it out." Jared ordered with a harsh gesture of his hand.
The butler sighed. "Sir, she is in the garden. She has not been in the best of moods all morning. Not since you left the party last night."
Jared couldn't help but smile. Lightly and in a friendly way he tapped at the butler's face. "Thank you, old man." And with that he left towards the garden.
He wanted to laugh. He had put her in a horrible mood. She was in a horrible mood because of him. Damn he loved that.
He opened the doors to the garden and was met with the soft glow of the sun. It sang its rays down on him, caressing over the tall topiaries and reflected off the sweet petals of newly blossomed flowers. Farrah was sitting on her usual wicker chair and to Jared's surprise she had company.
Lucas was sitting in the chair opposite her, dressed in his afternoon best. He was beaming across at her as if he had never seen a more perfect woman. Farrah was listening to him talk as if she was hearing angels.
He couldn't help the surge of anger that suddenly filled him. He hadn't expected it. What was it to him if she wanted to keep company and put her reputation in danger? With this he didn't even have to do a thing to ruin her. But it wasn't just anger, it was jealousy.
"Looks like the two of you are having a splendid afternoon." He spoke, breaking up their conversation causing them to both look at him. He offered them both smiles before he stood before them.
"Why did you not wake me, Farrah? You know how much I enjoy my morning scone and now I cannot keep my ritual. Childish to even have one, is it not?"
Neither of them said a thing. They had nothing at all to say. They were looking at him like he carried leprosy himself and he was about ready to throw it on them.
"Well if the two of you do not wish me to remain here..." Jared made to turn on his heel and head back to the house.
Lucas stood up immediately. "Mr. Leto, sir. Please wait." He called in a strained and inviting voice.
"Lucas don't." Farrah nearly pleaded in a small voice.
Jared turned back to look at them, a small and victorious smile on his lips as he glanced to Farrah. "I don't have to stay." He said with a slight wave of his hand.
"But you must. Truly." Lucas insisted, looking Jared in the eyes and wishing he could somehow make amends. "Take my seat."
Farrah was looking up at the young man astonished. She couldn't believe that Lucas would do something like this to her.
Jared gave Lucas a nod and returned to them, taking his old seat and sitting down with a smile. Lucas remained standing there with them, his hands locked behind his back and a bit of uneasiness in his eyes. Jared could feel the thickness in the air and he smile in spite of the seriousness on Farrah's and Lucas' faces.
"Darling? Why do you look so upset? Do you not like to spend time with me? Or was I intruding on a personal conversation between two friends?" Jared asked, turning his eyes to Farrah with a light trace of a smile on his face.
She didn't answer. She merely looked down and took a handful of lilac lace into her delicate hands.
"Oh it was not that?" He questioned which made Lucas begin to shift. "Or have I interrupted the long awaited dialogue between lovers?" He glanced between the two of them waiting for one of them to say something.
Lucas let out a strained cough before he composed himself. "I think it's time that I leave." He said, letting his hands fall to his sides.
"Why? Do not let me scare you away. It is only my wife that you lie with."
Lucas couldn't say anything. He stumbled on a clumsy goodbye before he rushed away and back inside the house.
Jared let out a loud laugh which was not followed by one from Farrah. He glanced at her, his eyes studious as he watched her. What was it? Why did she remove herself from every situation?
"Are you upset with me, darling?"
Slowly she turned her eyes to him before she shot out of her chair. "How dare you! You are a miserable excuse of man! You think you can come in and dictate everyone's lives? You can do it to everyone else but you cannot do it to me!" She yelled out her words, her eyes wide with anger.
"Can't I though? Am I not already?" He didn't feel affected by anything she had said. He understood it and it humored him.
"Why can I not have my friends? Why must I be locked away in this house unable to leave since you hold the key?" She demanded. She wished she knew the source of his hated. When she had first met him she had been somewhat drawn to him. Why and how had he changed so much since then?
"I wouldn't say that Lucas is a mere friend." He said, resting his head back on his folded hands. "I'd say he's a bit more intimate than that."
She narrowed her eyes, looking down at him with disbelief. "You're a hypocrite!"
"Am I? Please tell me how." There was a small smile on his lips that told her to carry on.
"You have the nerve to tell me when you went with that woman upstairs during last night's party! You left me with all the guests!"
Jared feigned a pout. "All alone were you? Were you scared they might be gossiping?"
She made a low noise of anger before making to turn away from him.
Jared rose from his chair. "I am not a hypocrite. I do think you have not read the definition of the word."
His words made her turn around to face him.
"You, my darling wife, are the hypocrite. You rush after me hoping to expose me of the sins I do not wish to cover. All the while you break your vows of marriage to dally off with some young man from your past. It is rather laughable really."
"I never wanted to marry you." She sneered.
"Ah, but you did. You spoke the vows and there they stand.
"Stop torturing me!" She nearly shouted in a sharp voice before she stormed off.
Jared rushed to her, taking hold of her arm and spinning her back around to her. He looked down into her eyes and noted the vulnerable distress on her face.
"I'm not stopping anytime soon. I fear that by the end of everything you might not be able to suffer through it. It'll be easy for awhile, you lucked out, since you're pregnant. But once that baby is safely tucked into my arms you had better start looking over your shoulder.
"Are you threatening me?" She asked, trying to look defiant but only managing to look afraid.
"Oh I am." He replied with a nod.
Her fear settled then as she stepped back from him. "I told Lucas...about the baby. He wanted to extend his congratulations to you but not after the truth I let slip."
He looked at her expectantly.
"I told him that the baby might be his."
He just stared at her. Stared at her in both anger and absolute defeat. Carefully at first he took his hands from her shoulders. She ket out a cry as he tightened his grip. He shook her a little but when sh came back up there was a smile painted on her lips. It made him angry and so he lifted his hand, bringing it across her face. She cried as she fell to the ground, the force of his strength and how she hadn't expected that causing her to fall. He looked down at her. He smiled down at her pretty face where he had marked a large red spot on her cheek.
"Take it back." He said in a low voice before he turned away from her.
He walked back into the house with a small smile and another strong and victorious look in his eyes. He had work to do and soon enough he would be there without the dark distractions he didn't want to be worn out with. He figured she wouldn't be much of a problem any time soon.

Police are investigating how a gun in the possession of a handcuffed teen was missed before he was put into the back of a patrol car.
HOUSTON — A school district spokesman says a high school student who shot himself while handcuffed in the back of a patrol car after being taken into custody at his Houston-area campus had told a friend he might hurt himself.
Police say they're investigating how the gun the student shot himself with wasn't found before he was put in the vehicle Wednesday.
Galena Park school district spokesman Jonathan Frey says deputies picked up the 17-year-old Wednesday morning after he'd texted a friend that he wanted to hurt himself.
The student was detained, handcuffed and placed in the back of the car. But Frey says the student retrieved a "hidden gun" and shot himself.
The unidentified student was conscious when taken to a hospital and was in critical but stable condition Wednesday evening.

text: Obligatory plane wing shot :) Cannot believe it has been 2 weeks since I've been here, still doesn't seem quite real. The journey here was hard, coughing every 5 minutes and worrying that I'd be turned away at the border since I didn't apply for my visa beforehand. Luckily every thing turned out fine, and after 2 hours waiting at YVR, 4 hours to Dallas, 1 hour layover, 9 hours to London, 3 hours coach to Birmingham, and 10 minutes with a racist taxi driver, I arrived at my accommodations at the University of Birmingham tired and wondering what the heck I got myself into.

A group of realtors got physical Thursday morning in Albemarle County. The sheriff's office spent time with the women to teach them self defense skills.
The realtors got hands on training on how to stop an attack. They are often left alone while showing properties to strangers, and organizers say this first basic lesson is a good first step.
Albemarle County Deputy Sheriff Andy Ballard said, "It's the refuse to be a victim. We just want these ladies to feel comfortable in their job and feel comfortable in life. Not just showing the houses but in real life out on the streets if somebody was attacked, the things they can do to defend themselves, to protect themselves."
"The "Realty of Self Defense" presentation is available to any group who wants the class. For details, call the Albemarle County Sheriff's Office at (434) 972-4001.

What Is The Best Hair Product Brand? Redken, Kerastase Or Paul Mitchell?
I have been a stylist for 12 years now and out of the three you have mentioned I prefer Paul Michell. It is a very versatile product and available for all hair types.Personally I use "The Conditioner" on a daily basis. Not only is it good as a leave in conditioner, but you can also use it as a shaving cream, lotion, facial moisturizer and many other things. I love it and recommend it to everyone I know. It works great on damaged hair and dry skin. I have even used it on sunburns and ended up with a spectacular tan!! Hope this helps! good luck
