New Feelings2 Reviews
Rachel starts to have feelings she has never felt before...
This is where the story starts to come together... Kind of..
Thank you for all the reviews and comments..
Chapter 2
"So, what was it about?!" Scarlet said excitedly, pulling her knees up against her chest, leaning towards me.
I stayed silent and avoided eye contact.
"I promise I won't tell anyone Rachel. I swear. C'mon, you can trust me." She whispered reassuringly.
I let out a loud sigh. I loved all my friends, I could tell them anything. But the first person I tell stuff to was Scarlet. My friends, the girl ones I have, are like sisters to me. But Scarlet is something more. Something special...
I could tell I had been thinking in my head for a while now by the way Scarlet said:
"Look, if you don't want to tell me, that's fine. I respect that. Just know that, if you want to talk, I'm here." She said as she put a hand on my leg. I smiled.
"Ok, but remember, you can't tell anyone. And you know me, if I find out you told someone, you better run girl!" I whispered, leaning in closer to her.
Scarlet laughed and I started to tell a secret I was ashamed to admit.
"Ok," I sighed. "Last night..." I started.
"Yeah?!" Scarlet excitedly shouted.
"I kinda had a dream about Gerard..." I finished, whispering.
"And your point is?" she said raising her eyebrow, having a confused look on her face.
"You've had dreams about Gerard before, lots of times infact." Scarlet pointed out.
I looked around to make sure no one was listening. I made a hand gesture for her to
huddle in even more. She sighed.
"Yeah, but this time it was different." I said while I looked around once again, feeling insecure about someone hearing.
"Scarlet. I dreamt we were together... Sexually." I whispered.
"What?! Like a sex dream?! You had a fucking sex dream about Gerard?!" She said, sounding shocked. Her voice raising with every word she spoke.
"Noo!!" I whispered, shocked that she could even think that.
I hushed her, reminding her to keep her voice down.
"No! Not like that. We were just...together... Romantically..." I said quietly.
We sat staring at each other. I decided to add a bit more in, so she wouldn't presume anything bad again: "Like, kissing, and, and cuddling...and..."
"I know what you mean Rachel! It's nothing bad though. I mean, you have to admit, your dreams can be pretty fucked up sometimes." Scarlet pointed out, again.
"Yes, I know... What does this mean though?" I asked, worried.
"I don't know Rach... It's probably, just a dream..." Scarlet said.
"Hopefully..." I sighed.
"Well what else is it going to be?!" Scarlet shouted.
"I don't know! It could be anything!!" I hissed a bit louder then planned.
"And what are you two doing?!" Ray said walking in with Frank, Mikey and Gerard by his side.
"We're planning our plans for world domination!" I said jumping up, throwing my arms in the air above me.
"Yes... Well, good luck with that." Frank said sitting on the floor next to me.
I tried to avoid looking at Gerard. I tensed up, and went slightly red. Scarlet sensed my sudden awkwardness and whispered in my ear: "Just act normal. And if something happens, I'm here to back you up!"
"Thanks. What would I do without you?!" I whispered back pulling her into a hug.
"Right then..." Mikey said confused, looking around for answers on our sudden actions.
The boys all shrugged at him.
"GIRL ON GIRL ACTION!!" Frank shouted at the top of his lungs.
"Shut up Frank!" Scarlet and I said in unison. We turned to each other and laughed.
"I'm getting a drink." I said standing up. "And maybe find the rest of the gang. Anyone wanna come with?" I asked.
"I'll come!" Gerard said as he stood up.
"Ok then, lets go!" I said, trying my best to act normal.
"Anyone else? No? Well you had your chance!" I said as I linked arms with Gerard and we skipped off into the corridor.
I sat at my table. Watching the teacher pacing up and down the room, trying to explain the topic we were on. I zoned out, putting my head on the table and putting my arms on my head. My mind somehow wondered off to the numerous kisses Gerard and I shared in my dream.
The bell rang, snapping me out of my day dream. I screamed out a big 'Woo!' And grabbed my books and basically ran out the door, I couldn't wait to get home for some reason...
I laid on my bed, basking in the silence that engulfed the house. My parents and brother were asleep, and I was the only awake. I sighed and closed my eyes and laid for a good 20 minutes. I was asleep when I heard tapping at my window.
I am a light sleeper, so at the slightest noise, I'm up. My eyes flew open as I sat up onto of my bed. I sat there for a few seconds, listening hard to make sure I wasn't imagining it. I heard the tapping again along with someone whispering my name. I slowly made my way over to the curtains, pulling them towards me so I could see outside. As I pulled them towards me a bright torch light shined in my eyes.
"What the fuck?!" I said confused.
"Shit! Sorry! I didn't mean it, I swear!" The mystery person replied.
"Gerard?" I asked confused as I opened my window.
"What are you doing here?! You scared the shit out of me!" I asked Gerard.
"I uh...came to see you." he replied shyly, a smile spread across his face.
"Wanna go for a walk?" Gerard offered.
I laughed. "Are you that bored?"
"Aye! Don't make fun of me! Do you want to go or not?! Cause I'm going with or
without you!" He replied.
"Gerard... It's... It's..." I looked behind me to the alarm clock.
The red numbers read 9:35 pm.
"It's 9:35!!" I pointed out.
"Excuses, after excuses, after excuses... If you don't want to go you don't have to, and just say it damn it! Instead of making excuses." Gerard said, being half serious, half sarcastic.
"Shut up... I want to go... but what about my parents? What if they find out Gerard? They'll kill me!" I hissed.
"Yeah, and that's really stopped you before!?" Gerard laughed.
I looked towards the door, deciding weather or not to go. I had put my dream as a dream. One of my crazy wacky dreams I have.
"Good point... Ok. I'll come. How cold is it outside?" I said.
"Uh... Pretty cold. Put your arm out and see for yourself." Gerard whispered.
I put my arm outside and shivered. Gerard laughed.
"Yeah, it's pretty cold. Better put a jacket on." He said.
"Who are you? My mother?!... Wait here. I have to get dressed." I hissed at him before turning around.
I let go of the curtains and walked over to my drawers.
"Hurry up!! Or I'm leaving without you!" Gerard whispered.
"You wouldn't dare!" I threatened as I grabbed a pair of black jeans, an ACDC shirt, and a red and black striped hoodie.
Gerard laughed "Wanna bet?"
"Just shut up and let me get changed." I said, pulling on my jeans.
He sighed. "Fine, but like I said, hurry up."
I pulled the shirt over my head and then the hoodie. I sat on my bed and put my converses on. I put my fingerless gloves on and grabbed my phone.
"Should I leave my light on or not?" I asked.
"Maybe you shouldn't, if your parents come in to turn the light off and your not here? Just turn it off." Gerard replied.
"Ok. But hang on, I have to put a belt on. Pants falling down." I said pulling my pants up and walking across my room to grab my studded belt before putting it on.
Gerard sighed again, "My god, are you always like this?"
"Shut the fuck up!" I snapped at him.
I turned off the light, and made my way over to the window. Bashing my hip on the corner of my bed. Making a slight knocking noise.
"Ha,ha!" Gerard teased as I pulled the curtains back again.
"That really hurts you know! ...If you had hips you'd know about it!!.... My rooms gonna be soo cold when we get back." I said as I attempted to climb out the window.
"Here, let me help you." Gerard said as I struggled to climb out.
He out stretched his hand so I could grab it. I did, and my stomach felt like it tied itself in a knot. A sickening feeling I had never felt before.
I got half way out, and was stuck. Gerard and I both laughing quietly, trying not to wake anyone up. All of a sudden, Gerard grabbed me by the hips and pulled me towards him. My body tingling, I felt weird, something I had also never felt before. I slid out of the window and put my feet on my ground.
"Let's go!" Gerard said jumping off the veranda.
I followed, trying to hide the pathetic smile that was on my face...
Yep! That's my second chapter!! Hope you liked it!!
I'm on a roll now, I have a million ideas for this now!!
And I'm sorry if its too long, I tried to cut it down, but I felt everything in this chapter needed to be there to actually make the chapter...
Please review and tell me what you think!!

earth fault
Fault signaling units are used in small plants where the installation of complex fault signaling systems would be too cost and laborintensive. In the event of a fault, they enable fast fault localization of all monitoring devices and limit monitors from a central location. This increases plant availability. With the correct sensor configuration, they also provide the option of preventative maintenance.
* 4 fault signal inputs with LED
* 1 LED as centralized fault indicator
* One unit each for centralized fault indication and acoustic signaling
* With acknowledgment for acoustic indicators
* Open-/closed-circuit principle to the 4 inputs can be set via jumpers X1 X2
* A maximum of 39 5TT3 461 expansion fault signaling units can be connected to the 5TT3 460 centralized fault signaling unit
* The maximum possible cable length between 5TT3 460 centralized fault signaling units and 5TT3 461 expansion fault signaling units is approx. 100 m with a conductor cross-section of 1.5 mm2.
* Ultra compact device designs that only require the smallest of spaces in distribution boards
* The modular design means that extra devices can be simply added as your system expands.

Edison Chandelier from Pottery Barn
The new Edison Chandelier caught our eye immediately. The unique form of draping cords and vintage-styled bulbs combines the popularity of Edison Bulbs with a modern chandelier — like a relaxed version of Autobahn's Octopus Chandelier!...
This is a rather industrial look for Pottery Barn. The Edison Chandelier is $399.

Wow, I can't believe this is PB. It's gorgeous!
I love this, and I'm with Timmy - I was shocked to see it in the PB catalog. They're definitely mixing things up these days. Sometimes with not so exciting results, admittedly - but this is fantastic.
How hard would this be to DIY? i feel like you could do it for much less money, but electrical stuff kinda makes me nervous.
Would be curious to know how all those cord holders attach to the ceiling. Could be a real mess if you were to move it later.
Yeah really- 10 hilders with 2 screws each, thats 20 screw holes that would have to be patched if you replace it.
Still, it is pretty cool looking and I imagine it would also work well on angled ceilings.
How do you reconcile this fixture with the push towards energy efficient CFL's?
totally cool.
I'm with Dave.darling - Seems like the wrong product at the wrong time.
Very cool.
wow- color me impressed! way to go, PB!
yeah, real GREEN?
Love it, butagree with the comments about CFLs. This just wouldn't look the same with fluorescent bulds hanging from it! What about the longevity of it too, what with the push to eliminate incandescents all together? What would you do with it then?
Love it.
And re CFLs: we use them, but the awful quality of light they cast drives me nuts. Is that just the nature of CFLs, or does anyone think/know if this is something that can be improved?
so cool
CFLs probably won't even fit. I bought a light from PB for my kitchen (practically the most used light in the house) and the sockets are set very deep into the fixture, so the fat part of the bulb prevents it from screwing in!! Bummer!
I wouldn't try to make any DIY light fixtures because they aren't UL'd. You don't want to burn down your house...
I work for a lighting manufacturer and while we get really cool looking samples - I wouldn't put them in my house as they aren't always wired up correctly. Sometimes we hear booms coming from our warehouse :)
UL: Underwriters Laboratories - http://www.ul.com/
The simple version is that they give products (esp. electrical/electronic) safety approval.
To make this green, just keep it turned off for 364 days of the year.
(Or is it one of those insidious things that keep siphoning energy even when off?)
Love it, for once a major furniture catalogue finds a way to keep with current trends without blatantly ripping of classics.
As for the eco-freaks, as a dining room light, it will likely only be on a coupe hours a day or week. Besides with CFLs selling like mad, it won't be long until manufacturers design CFLs that are actually good looking. Either that or LED bulbs continue to fall in price and supplant the CFL.
I think its great looking but also immediately saw the ecological/cost downside. Would it be horrendous or dangerous to fashion a circular paper covering so that you could put CFLs inside? Or is one of the main appeals of this lamp the fact that you can see through the hanging round shapes (bulbs)?
Love it! Looks fantabulous!
there is a similar DIY hack on instructables using hemma lights from ikea. http://www.instructables.com/id/Hemma-Light-Chandelier-Hack/

One of the things I have done with mine is focus on str/wisdom, to maximize cruel recovery and the interesting ranger riders. The Master's Blade allows two stances, so Master of the Hunt and Follow-Up Blow can both be activated. Using a crown of victory allows 2 APs per encounter, so a planned Act Together plus regular AP is possible. This grants another 2 standard and move actions. Couple this with a timeless locket which can convert a minor into a standard action. Add in the boots of eagerness which provide another move action once per encounter, and that's one big nova potential - I believe that adds up to 4 standard actions, 3 move, and one minor in a round.
The challenge is actually finding (or recharging) enough minor action attacks to make use of all that move.
The real challenge with nova builds is finding those two magic item dailies that give the most damage yield. Master's Blade and Timeless Locket are both great powers but need to be weighed against things like Torc of Power Preservation and Belt of Titan's Strength. If there was a way to enable two stances outside of daily item powers that would be a huge boost for all Ranger builds.
As for using minor action attacks, the nova I have posted recycles Nonchalant Collapse effectively with Martial Mastery and Action Point abuse.
This also has the possibility of boosting the pathfinder's nova, because activating dervish's challenge is a minor action attack, at 3[w]+str damage.
I'm already grabbing Jackal Strike from Fighter (Free Action 3[W] that triggers when you bloody the target). Dervish's Challenge is still a great power though.
I'm torn on the new lvl 9 daily, Marked for Death. It grants another two dice of hunter's quarry, which directly translates into a lot more temp hp for the pathfinder. It also marks for a round, which helps the pathfinder is his pseudo-defender role. However, you only get the extra dice against one enemy, so it depends on if your dm throws bosses at the party with any regularity. It also has stiff competition at the level, including the regular suspects like Attacks on the Run or new additions like grabbing Dervish's Challenge from the fighter.
Marked for Death certaily plays to the Pathfinder's abilities but it is still just a level 9 power. You are giong to be much better off going for higher level powers in the long run, such as Ranger's Resurgence.
Thanks for your commentary Roele. Keep it comming.

How to Create Printed Circuit Boards
Two Methods:Acid etching method specific stepsUltra-Violet etching method specific steps
So you have that circuit designed and ready. You did some computer aided simulations and the circuit is working great. Only one thing left! You need to create a printed circuit board for the circuit so you can see it in action! Whether your circuit is a project for school/college or is a final piece of electronics in a professional product for your company, implementing your circuit on a PCB will give it a much better professional look besides giving you an idea of how the finished product will look like!
This article will show you the different methods by which you can create a printed circuit board (PCB) for an electrical/electronic circuit using different methods suitable for small to large circuitry.
1Choose a method to use for creating the PCB. Your choice will usually be based on the availability of materials needed by the method, the technical difficulty level of the method or the quality of PCB you desire to obtain. Here's a brief summary of the different methods and their main features that will help you decide:
- Acid etching method: this method requires extreme safety measure, the availability of many materials such as the etchant and it is somewhat slow. The quality of PCB obtained varies according to the materials you use but generally, it is a good method for simple to intermediate levels of complexity circuits. Circuits involving more close wiring and tiny wires usually use other methods.
- UV etching method: this method requires more expensive materials that might not be available everywhere. However, the steps are simple; it requires less safety measures and can produce finer and more complicated circuit layouts.
- Mechanical etching/routing method: this method requires special machines that will mechanically etch away unnecessary copper from the board or route empty separators between wires. It can be expensive if you intend to buy one of those machines and usually leasing them requires the availability of a workshop nearby. However, this method is good if you need to create many copies of the circuit and also can produce fine PCBs.
- Laser etching method: this is usually used by large production companies, but can be found on some universities. The concept is similar to mechanical etching but LASER beams are used to etch the board. It is usually hard to access such machines, but if your local university is one of the lucky ones having such machine, you can use their facilities if they allow it.
2Create the PCB Layout of your circuit[1]. This is usually done by converting your circuit's schematic diagram into a PCB layout using PCB layout software. There are many open source software packages for PCB layout creation and design, some are listed here to give you a head-start:
3Make sure you gathered all the materials needed by the method of your choosing.
4Draw the circuit layout on the copper coated board. This is only applicable in the first two methods. More details can be found on the detail section of your method of choice.
5Etch the board. Look for the details sections for how to etch the board. This process removes any unnecessary copper from the board leaving only wiring of the final circuit.
6Drill mount points. Drilling machines used for that are usually custom machines designed specifically for this purpose. However, with some adjustments a usual drilling machine will do the job at home.
7Mount and solder the electronic components on board.
Method 1 of 2: Acid etching method specific steps
1Choose your etching acid. Ferric chloride is a common choice for an etchant. However, you can use Ammonium Persulfate crystals or other chemical solutions. No matter what choice for the chemical etchant, it will always be a dangerous material, so besides following the general safety precautions mentioned in this article, you should also read and follow any additional safety instructions that come with the etchant.
2Draw the PCB layout. For acid etching, you need to draw the circuitry using an etchant resistant material. Special markers can be found easily for this specific purpose if you intend to do the drawing by hand (not appropriate for medium to large circuits). Laser printers' ink is the most commonly used material however. The steps to use laser printers for drawing the circuit layout is as follows:
- Print the PCB layout on a glossy paper. You should ensure the circuit is mirrored before doing that (most PCB layout programs have this as an option when printing). This only works using a laser printer.
- Put the glossy side, with the printing on it, facing the copper.
- Iron the paper using an ordinary clothes iron. The amount of time this will take depends on the type of paper and ink used.
- Immerse the board and paper in hot water for a few minutes (up to 10 minutes).
- Remove the paper. If certain areas seem particularly difficult to peel off, you can try soaking a bit more. If everything went well, you will have a copper board with your PCB pads and signal lines traced out in black toner.
3Prepare the acid etchant. Depending on the acid etch that you choose, there might be additional instructions. For example, some crystallized acids require being dissolved in hot water, but other etchants are ready to use.
4Submerge the board in the acid.
5Make sure to stir every 3-5 minutes.
6Take the board out and wash it when all unnecessary copper is etched away from the board.
7Remove the insulating drawing material used. There are special solvents available for almost all types of insulating drawing material used in drawing PCB layouts. However, if you don't have access to any of these materials, you can always use a sand paper (a fine one).

- If you are using the acid etching method, you need to take the following precautions:
- Always store your acid in a safe cold place. Use glass containers.
- Label your acid and store it somewhere out of the reach of children.
- Do not dispose of your used acid in the home drains. Instead store it and when you have some amount of used acid, take it to your recycling center/dangerous waste disposal facility.
- Use gloves and air masks when working with acid etchants.
- Be extremely careful when mixing and stirring the acid. Do not use metallic objects and do not put the container on the edge of the disk.

Yes, we managed to track down the famous Ah Leng Char Koay Teow, courtesy of Uncle Eng Choon who brought us around Penang island stuffing ourselves silly. We had this first thing in the morning, and we were quite excited on what was in store for us. This famous stall is situated along Jalan Dato Keramat and as you can see, even his sign board says his famous.
So famous that he even operates a stall at night in Air Itam. So those in Penang who is craving Ah Leng famous char koay teow at night can pop buy to Air Itam to grab a plate.
This uncle has been operating for many many years, and we were lucky that day that he was the one preparing our char koay teow. Sometimes he gets his workers to do the job, but today, we got the original goods
We went all out that day, and 'ka lui' (extra ingredients). So our plate of char kway teow consisted of 4 HUGE prawns, and 1 mantis prawn, sea hum and to top it all off, fried with duck egg. Oh, and need I mention that it was fried in pork lard. Yes, wipe that drool off your face, you can just imagine how good it tasted.
Honestly, we were just fascinated by how humongous the prawns were. Ok, above is a close up, but the size was pretty much there. It was huge, fresh and oh so succulent and we had four (4)!!! Plus the mantis prawn really brought a different flavour to the whole dish and the duck egg, added a depth to it. It had a slightly gamey taste to the whole dish. After this dish, we were just so contented. Sitting there, smiling to ourselves..it was that good. The price for a plate of 'kah lui' char kway teow was only RM9. Which sounds expensive, but after you break it down to the four huge prawns, duck eggs, mantis prawns, sea hump and pork lard…I think it's definitely worth it. In KL this would easily come up to RM15 at least.
Love this place. Will come back again when we are down in Penang. Great food, great people and great food!! haha.

Out with heel injury ... Danny Buderus Photo: Getty Images
Danny Buderus can be all but scratched from the first game of the State of Origin series after being ruled out for three to four weeks by Newcastle today.
The Knights said achilles tendonitis would sideline the veteran hooker for an extended period, meaning he will almost certainly be unfit for Origin I at Etihad Stadium on May 23.
Buderus left Hunter Stadium before halftime of Monday's win over Penrith due to pain in his achilles and had to watch the second half from the bench.
Buderus had scans before receiving the results today, Newcastle said.
"The positive is the scans showed no tear and it is a matter of now managing the tendonitis," Knights performance director Jeremy Hickmans said.
"With a break from training and playing, Danny is hopeful to return after the bye."
Knights utility Matt Hilder will start Sunday's game against the Sydney Roosters at hooker, with his replacement on the bench still to be decided.
Michael Ennis and Robbie Farah are now set to battle it out for the NSW No.9 job.

After indulging on those donuts, something as simple as eggs and toast really hit the spot (the fact that the toast was paired with fresh peach jam helped) and those round things are the most perfect hash browns I've had the pleasure of eating.

Zafar Bangash Speech At CASMO Queen's Park Al Quds Day Rally
On Sunday August 28th 2011 CASMO, www.casmo.ca, self described as the "Platform of Shia Muslims in Canada" held an Al Quds Day rally at Queen's Park in Toronto Ontario. CASMO is an organization that worships the late unlamented Ayatollah Khomeini. To give you a sense of just how crazy the Mad Mullah's of CASMO are bear in mind they had a hate crime complaint filed against them for hosting a video by Nazi David Duke vilifying Israel this spring.
This speech by Zafar Bangash, given at CASMO's Al Quds Day rally at Queen's Park should be enough to ensure they never be granted another permit for the use of city or provincial properties again.
Following are a few of the lowlights from that speech.
Update: Zionhass Thinks Globally, Acts Locally
Oh NO's! Zafar Blames The JEW Media for exploiting 911 and pickin on those poor defenseless Muslims who nevers oppresses nobody nevers!
h/t Sanwin
Ha! Sassy gives us "Politicians on Parade" a pictorial of politico's and public servants who have whored themselves out to CASMO for, get this, a really, really, really ugly clock!
From Eyecrazy: Shia group CASMO makes racist, hate-filled speeches at Queen's Park as croud chants "Allah akbar!"

Hi, I dont know where to go now. I have traced my great grandfather Carlo Zanni born in 1871 marriage certificate to Agnes Pummell in 1896 but he does not appear in any cenus. I believe he came from Lake Miggorie Italy, can you please advise. Thank you . Cheryl Zanni
You are lucky to know were abouts in Italy your ancestor originated. Italian records are held by the local mayors and the local churches, so you need to make enquiries there.

Hi Anthony My GGG grandfather was born in Brusio Switzerland about 1760, please can you tell me how I can find out about his relatives in this country, I seem to have hit a brick wall at the moment. many Thanks Mary
Swiss records are generally excellent, and those of Brusio should certainly be your next port of call. They'll be in Brusio. You can hire a record agent if you don't want to go yourself.

Hi Anthony - I am trying to discover whether my great-great grandfather was a coachman to Lillie and Edward Langtry in 1880. He married in that year and gave 2 Cadogan Place, London, as his address - this was an extremely prestigious address. His wife's address at that time was the pub next door to the "modest" Langtry home which was in Norfolk Street. Biographies state that Lillie did subsequently purchase 2 Cadogan Place, but not until the late 1890's. However, a website by an American playwright states that Edward Prince of Wales had previously bought the property for her. Leading up to 1880, the affair between the Prince and Lillie was at its peak and given the link between Cadogan Place and Norfolk Street through my great-great grandparents, I wondered if the Prince had indeed bought it for her around 1880. Unfortunately, only servants are in residence at the property in the 1881 Census - subsequent Censuses to 1901 and Post Office Directories give Miss Shute as the occupier - even beyond the late 1890's when, according to biographers, Lillie is supposed to have bought the property for herself, Miss Shute is still recorded as the occupier. I have researched Miss Shute and her family and her sister-in-law was Lady Shute, who I believe was an acquaintance of Lillie. Unfortunately, the property was demolished around 1960 and is now a 5* hotel. I have contacted the Land Registry, the Hotel owners, the American Playwright, and the agent of a recent Lillie biographer who includes a photograph of the inside of 2 Cadogan Place in her book, but have not had any helpful replies. I have also searched the Digital Times Online. Where do I turn to next in trying to trace the owner rather than the occupier of 2 Cadogan Place in 1880? Thank you.
The last couple of sentences contain the actual question - how do you find the owner, rather than the occupier, of a property? If you suspect that you know, as in this case, you could seek the person(s)'s will, and see if the property was named. There may also be surviving land tax records - see J. Gibson, M. Medlycott and D. Mills' Land and window tax assessments, FFHS (1998). You could also try the Middlesex Deeds Registry, which covers many property transactions: these are at the London Metropolitan Archives and cover the period 1709 to 1938.

Hi. i hope you can point me in the right direction! I'm Trying to find my grandfather i know he was born in Edzell, Scotand in 1835 and married in 1958 after having three children with my grandmother he left in 1971. I know his full name "Gordon Cheyne Drummond" and i have a few details on his parents and grandparents and when i say detaild i mean the date they married. Hope u can help.BARRY
Dear Barry, I think you mean your grandfather was bor in 1935, not 1835- otherwise either he or you would be of a remarkable age! I think your problem here is that your grandfather left the family in 1971 and was not heard from again. With his distinctive names, he should show up in telephone directories, but only assuming he is listed and not ex-directory, which, given the circumstances you describe, he may well be. Equally, if he has passed away, he should show up clearly in the death indexes in Scotland, and it may be worth trying this, if only in order to eliminate that possibility. Otherwise, have you considered whether he may still be in touch with his original family? You know when and where he was born so you could seek his birth and then seek the births of his brothers and sisters. Armed with their names you could try using telephone directories to find them- and they may know the answer.

Me again.. i just spoke to my mother and she said that she has asked her aunts(his sisters) if they knew where he was and they dont. He and My grandmother split up in New Zeland as he was posted there by the RAF. just found that out. any ideas?
Oh dear- he really had disapeared then. On the other hand, New Zealand is a relatively small place, so you could try telephone directories and death indexes there as a start. There is no way this is going to be easy- but you may be surprised what you will find once you start searching. If your grandfather is receiving an RAF pension they should know where he is. They would not tell you, of course, but they should be willing to forward a letter to him from you.

hi Anthony, my question is this:- is there any register for miners in the north east and where do i find it - thanx dal
No register, sadly. George Bell of 113 East View, Wideopen, Tyne and Wear has an index to mining accidents in the North East, 1858-1899. Local archives sometimes hold records of individual mines, and once I found the records of a Cumbrian mine which told me that the 'miner' I wanted was actually a weaver, who made baskets for the coal, and stated his age and that he had come there from County Durham! Be prepared for disappointment, but it's defintely worth a look!

Hello Anthony I am seeking a girl who was the daughter of a soldier based at Budbroke Barracks in Warwick. Going into the 1911 census through the normal system does not produce any results. Surely the military were required to produce a census of all personnel in barracks on the census day? Thanks Colin Young
Yes, certainly they were. Maybe they weren't there because this chap's regiment was stationed outside England and Wales at the time. The National Archives hold the muster rolls of each regiment, that might offer some clues.

Hello Anthony, my 3x great grandfather was baptised with his mothers maiden name, Bickerton,in 1826. By the 1841 cencus he had changed his name to Young, which is what we assume assume was his fathers. In the 1851 cenus he had married had children but reverted back to Bickerton. Finally in the 1861 and subsequent cencus he remained as Young. I am positive I have the right line as his trade, a tailor, remained the same, they stayed in the same town and his wife and childrens Christian names remain the same. Do you have any idea why he would have changed his name and remained in the same place or could you point me in a direction to find out. Many thanks Susan Many thanks
He probably did not change his name - he probably used one all the time, but when dealing with officialdom he sometimes thought he'd better use the name under which his birth was registered. If he was born out of wedlock as Bickerton and then started being called Johnson, this was most likely because his mother had married a Johnson - whether her husband was your man's father, of course, is a more complicated matter to work out!

Hi Anthony, I wondered whether you had any advice for someone who is hoping to make the transition from enjoying amateur genealogy as a hobby to taking it up in a professional capacity. Rather than just offer "look ups" I would like to offer a research service. I have a PhD (non-related subject) which will give confidence in my attention to detail and integrity but would prefer to offer some recognised credibility. I have been looking at distance learning degrees such as those offered by IHGS and AGRA membership. Would you consider these essential? Any other advice? Karen
I have had a wonderful and successful career as a genealogist so would certainly recommend it to others. You must take the greatest pains possible to know the subject inside out, by reading, and gaining as much experience as possible. The structured courses and examinations offered by the IHGS in Canterbury are a very good way of learning, and then testing your own mettle. I did not go through the rather complicated admission process for AGRA when I went freelance because I already had 14 years' experiece of professional work under the IHGS, but for those not lucky enough to have accrued so much research time, the AGRA process is again a very good way of ensuring that you are up to the job.

Hello Anthony, I have my fathers birth certificate which states his mother as Ethel Young formerly Hilder. But my father says his mother was Edith Young formerly Knight. His brothers birth cert states Edith. Could there possible have been mistake in her name written on my fathers cert? Or how else could I find out for sure? Edith has always been my nan and as far as we know this is true? Any ideas? Thanks Val.
Well, official certificates and also family memories can both be faulty at times: all one can ever do is see where the balance of probability lies. Seer how she appears on birth records of her other children, and see if she was the informant of any herself: also, see what she said on her marriage record.
|Valerie Young
|17/04/2012 21:57:27
Hi Anthony On the birth cert is says Ethel Young formerly Hilder. Informant E Young On the marriage cert: Editha Elizabeth Knight
Ah ha, and was this the name of the woman the father had married a few months earlier? If not, then we can surmise that she was claiming to be his wife, but was not really.
|Valerie Young
|17/04/2012 21:28:04
My fathers birth certificate has the wrong mothers name on it? Were mistakes made? He was adement that she was not his birth mother. I have got the marriage certificate of his mother and father feb 1916 with the correct names on and he was born in the Nov 1916. Is there anyway I can check this out? Thank you.Val
Some mistakes were made, but what is recorded on a birth record is probably going to be an accurate record of what the registrar was told by the informant. The informant might well have chosen not to tell the truth, though - so I am curious: if his parents had married earlier in 1916, then who was the woman whose name was down as his mother on the birth record, if not the father's wife?

Thanks Anthony. I have no idea of the other woman on the certificate, ive tried to trace her name but no one comes up around the area or time. Really dont know what to do about it.
This is a most unusual business. Could you state the names concerned, on the marriage record, and on the birth record. Is the woman described as 'X, formerly Y'? Who was the informant of the birth?

Thanks again for the last answer it gives a reason why we cannot find her. Another question is it possible to find out from department of work and pensions any info? i.e. has she ever drawn a pension or if she has died? As I know that she worked in a chemist in 1956 and also in a NAFFI in Havordsfordwest.. Just grasping at straws now!!
Yes, they'll know, but they won't tell you. But Social Services do run a 'dead or alive' service whereby they can tell you whether someone is one or the other (but no more). It's so long since I've used it that I cannot remember more details.

Thanks for your reply.I will contact local newspapers in Coventry and Stranraer. Yes I have looked for a will but there was not one. I have also talked to the informant on the death cert but all he could offer was that he "thought" that perhaps she had gone to Scotland. Hense I have looked for any paper trail there but again nothing. Am i to give up this search or is there other areas that I could investigate? Her name is Sheila Gwendoline HANSON b. 12/01/1934 @ plymouth. Married William GILMOUR b. dec 1933.d. aug 1985 @ coventry
Well done for having done so much. Presumably you have searched for her death, or a possible remarriage, in Scotland - but of course she could be happily living up there, in an old people's home, perhaps, in which case she could be virtually untraceable. One thing you could try would be identifying her parents, and then her siblings, and try to find them, and they may know perfectly well where she is.

Hello Anthony. I have been tracing my Wifes family tree for close to 10 years, I have got back to 1700, I am now trying to fill in the gaps in the recent history, and I am trying to find my wifes natural mother as my wife was adopted in 1956. We have got the adoption papers so we know her name. The problem I have come up against is that I can find no records for her since she married in 1956, (not to the father of my wife). I have spoken to her ex-brother in law but he has no idea where she is, or might have gone after she split from her husband in about 1960. Her husband died in 1985, but it is believed that they never divorced. I employed people tracer but they were not able to find her. And I have tried theElectoral roll UK and Scotland but keep drawing blanks. Are there any records to search for changes in name by deed poll? As this is the only thing that I can think that I have not searched Can you please offer any advice to where I might go next?
Deed polls are usually published in local newspapers. You know where her husband died, so you could ask the local newspaper there if they have ever published anything, or you can search them yourself - but that probably isn't the answer. She may have remarried, or gone abroad, or may have opted out of the electoral registers and/or telephone directories. One step you could take would be to focus on whoever was the informant of the husband's death - this will be on the death certificate, and see if you can find them now - so as to ask them. Also, have you tried looking to see if he left a will?

Hello Anthony I have an ancestor who was born Patricia Mary Thorpe HAVAON. in Polruan in 1922. She appears again in 1962 on her Mother's death cert with a changed surname of Van der Westhuizen. I can't find any record of a marriage
You've intrigued me here. Havaon is a very unusual surname and there's no sign of the birth you mention in the birth indexes on this site. Are you sure of the spelling? Where did you find it written down? As she's your ancestor, do you know who she married (or are you using 'ancestor' to mean the sister of an ancestor?)?. I agree that there is no sign of a Havaon-van der Westhuizen marriage. It could have been in Holland or elsewhere abroad of course, but it's always possible that Patricia married someone else first and then married van der Westhuizen under her married name. Please tell me a little more and we'll try to solve this.

Sorry I misspelt surname should be Hanson. If she was married abroad ie Holland or perhaps south Africa are there any online records as I am living in France.
Yes, I thought there was something funny there. Using our marriage search facilities, on this site, I have found Charle (sic) R. Van Der Westhuisen marrying in Cairo in 1943 (ref. 745) to a Miss Hanson in the General Register Office's indexes to army marriages (1881-1955). I checked that the Hanson concerned was a Patricia, and she was. Perhaps she was there in some military capacity herself, as a W.R.E.N., maybe - it was a heady time to be in Cairo and I expect there was a quite a story. You can order the certificate at http://www.gro.gov.uk/gro/content/certificates/default.asp. It just goes to show how much can be discovered using Genes Reunited nowadays.

Press Releases
Philadelphia Elephant Move: Animal Protection Organizations Unite to Oppose Sending Elephants to Inhumane Pittsburgh Zoo Facility
Cruel Elephant Management Practices, Risky Breeding and Lack of Permanent Home in Store for Philly Elephants, Experts Say
Philadelphia, PA — Three leading animal protection organizations — Born Free USA, People For the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PeTA), and In Defense of Animals (IDA) — are joining forces to oppose the pending move of two African elephants, Kallie and Bette, from the Philadelphia Zoo to the Pittsburgh Zoo's animal holding and breeding facility in Somerset County Pennsylvania.
The organizations point to four main animal welfare problems with the transfer:
- Cruel, circus-style elephant training used by the Pittsburgh facility subjects elephants to physical punishment delivered with the bullhook, a heavy rod with a sharp steel hook at one end. More than half of Association of Zoos and Aquariums (AZA)-accredited zoos no longer use bullhooks.
- Confinement to small pens with no free access to the property's several hundred acres. Since the facility has declined to erect elephant-proof fencing, elephants will only be walked around the property under the control of keepers with bullhooks, preventing them from engaging in natural physical and social elephant behavior.
- Grave health risks associated with breeding. Both elephants are in their late 20s and would be 30 or older by the time they gave birth for the first time. This scenario (older first time mothers) has resulted in tragedy for other elephants in zoos, and it is widely acknowledged that African elephants in captivity who have never given birth and are older than 24 years should not be bred.
- Denial of a permanent, stable and natural home. The Philadelphia Zoo lacks a coherent plan for these elephants. In the last five years, the zoo has alternately stated that it was expanding its elephant exhibit in Philadelphia (a plan dropped for lack of funding); that the elephants would be sent to the Maryland Zoo (a plan also dropped when the Maryland Zoo hit a financial snag); that the elephants would be sent to Pittsburgh for breeding; and, most recently, that the elephants will simply be stored in Pittsburgh until Philadelphia can build a new exhibit.
The groups said that instead of shipping the elephants to Pittsburgh, the Philadelphia Zoo should send them to one of two accredited natural habitat elephant sanctuaries located in California and Tennessee.
In 2006, the Philadelphia Zoo announced plans to close its elephant exhibit due to a lack of funding to address the inadequate conditions of the 60-year-old cramped enclosure. At that time the Philadelphia Zoo had four elephants. More than three years later, one elephant died after being found collapsed in the cement barn and another was sent to live out the rest of her life at the 2,700-acre Elephant Sanctuary in Tennessee.

Casey Complained about "Mommy Duties"
According to recently released text messages, Casey blamed Caylee for missing a party.
Local 6 News reports text message records show Casey Anthony's partying was constrained by what she called "mommy duties," and said "waiting around sucks" when her parents failed to get home in time for Casey to go out.
Here's the rundown of Casey's test messages on May 3 at 4:21 PM:
Anthony and then best friend Amy Huizenga made plans to attend a party.
"Any more details on that party?" Anthony asked.
But about two hours later, Anthony sent Huizenga a text message reading, "Cross your fingers that my parents get back soon. God, I need this tonight."
"But apparently, her daughter, Caylee, needed her more," Pipitone said.
Two hours later, Anthony sent another message.
"I'm trying to get a hold of my mom to see when they're coming home. Sitting around waiting sucks," Anthony said.
Three hours after that, Anthony gave up on her party plans, telling Huizenga that she would take a rain check.
"Downtown tomorrow? My mom owes me," Anthony sent in a text message.
About a week later, a boyfriend sent a message about his regret over Anthony being absent from the party scene.
"Thought you were coming out last night," it said.
"Yeah, so did I," Anthony replied. "Mommy duties."
On May 23 at 7:48 PM, Anthony told Huizenga, "I'm going to stay home," promising to go out the next night. "I already cleared it with my madre."
Anthony attended a party that weekend, which combined with her daughter's disappearance, gained her national notoriety, Pipitone said.
On May 24, Anthony sent Huizenga a text that said, "The cops came around 1:15 and broke up the party."
The next night, Anthony attended an "anything-but-clothes" party and sent another message to Huizenga.
"You will officially see the American flag in all its glory tonight," Anthony's message said.
Anthony also attended a Friday night hip-hop party at the Fusion nightclub, telling a former boyfriend on June 13,
"You guys should definitely come. $5 cover, super hot shot girls, a hot body contest."In other Casey Anthony news, according to the Orlando Sentinel, Caylee's grandparents George and Cindy Anthony will issue a statement later this week through their new family representative, Michelle Bart. "Hopefully, by the end of the week the public will understand why we've been searching for Caylee Marie," Bart told the Sentinel. "We truly believe that Caylee Marie is alive." Momlogic will keep you posted when the statement is released.

The Daniel Baldwin divorce is officially back on ... just months after the actor and his wife put the split on hold ... and this time, she's making some HUGE financial demands.
Joanne Baldwin has just filed a fresh set of divorce papers in Oregon ... claiming she and Daniel have irreconcilable differences that have caused "the irremediable breakdown of their marriage."
In the papers, Joanne is demanding $4k per month in child support for their 2 children -- plus HALF of all of Daniel's earnings, including 50% of a $100k payday the actor is allegedly set to make in Australia.
Joanne is also asking the court to require Daniel to take out a $1,000,000 life insurance policy for the benefit of their kids.
According to the docs, Joanne wants sole custody of the couple's children. She's also demanding to be awarded all of the furniture that she owned prior to the marriage.
As TMZ previously reported, Daniel had filed for divorce back in July ... but both he and Joanne agreed to dismiss the divorce petition in August.
Calls to both Joanne and Daniel have not been returned.
Um..doens't this lady have a SEVERE drinking problem? To the point of endangering her chidlren??/ WHere in the heck does she get off thinking she is going to clean him out??? And that is HIGHLY SUSPICIOUS that she all of a sudden wants a $1M life policy! She will NEVER get the kids with her dependency at this time. SHe sounds scary crazy and if I was Daniel...I would RUN AS FAST AS YOU CAN! And hire a DAMN GOOD LAWYER!
good for her...all the baldwins are *******.......from alec to this ass ole.......hope the b'stard has a million bucks and she gets every phkn cent!
Never EVER get married. Marriage is for the weak.
Another dumb whore looking for a free ride, what's NEW?????
A one million dollar life insurance policy in case he dies shortly after the divorce, in a tragic freak accident.
Save a million and pay 40k to make this problem go away.
Get a job fugly!!!!
Ah, the unsuccessful Baldwin...
I still think his wife is damned hot.
she looks like an ugly julia ormond. he looks like a pale, fat also-ran. i look like someone who could give a sh*t
She wants a life insurance policy because this dude isn't going to be alive in the next few years. He has an extensive arrest record and is a major drug addict.
This woman is a gold-digging bitch! I wouldn't give her one red cent! Get a job and make your own money "princess". You've lived the good life for free for far too long. Time for reality. Make your own damn money or live on the street.
B*tch wants half, & they've only been married 4 years? Get the hell out of here! Child support, ok, with receipts! But half of his earnings? Go scratch!
WTF!! the woman is sick!

"There are two kinds of people," Richard (Greg Kinnear) says. "Winners and losers."
Richard's family have to put up with this kind of talk a fair amount. He's an ambitious, would-be motivational speaker continually peddling his "nine steps" to a successful life.
It's no accident that the father in "Little Miss Sunshine" is continually pushing the idea of "winners and losers." From its very title, this is a film fairly explicitly about events that produce one winner and a score of losers - the beauty pageant. In this case it's the Little Miss Sunshine Pageant, for seven and eight-year old girls. With the region's winner disqualified, Richard's family receives a call at the beginning of the film informing them that Olive (Abigail Breslin) is eligible to compete.
Regardless of how adorable and sweet Olive is, the deck seems to be pretty stacked against her genetically. Let's just say that she does not exactly come from a family of "winners." Her grandfather (Alan Arkin) was recently kicked out of his retirement home. He's an abrasive, F-word spewing junky - who also happens to be the one helping her learn and rehearse her dance routine. Her uncle Frank (Steve Carell) is America's #1 Marcel Proust scholar. He recently tried to kill himself after being spurned by one of his male graduate students. Olive's teenage brother Dwayne (Paul Dano) is obsessed with Nietzsche and has taken an oath of silence until he reaches his goal - becoming a fighter jet pilot. He communicates via expressions and a notepad. Early on he writes to his uncle "I hate everyone." When Frank asks about his family Dwayne underlines "everyone" a few times. Only the mother Sheryl (Toni Collette) seems to avoid any oddball lapses. It's this diverse crew that will make a road trip from Albuquerque, New Mexico to Los Angeles in a broken-down Volkswagen bus. It's at that point that Murphy's Law comes into full effect to rich comedic results and plenty of laugh-out-loud moments.
That's about all the plot description a responsible critic should give. There are far too many surprises, plot twists, and seemingly impenetrable obstacles that our heroes must endure in their mad dash to the Little Miss Sunshine Pageant.
It's this theme of "winners and losers" that is one of the film's most compelling ideas. Independent film is, by its very nature, generally about the "loser," this film being a clear example of it. It's primarily in independent films where you find the celebration of geeks, eccentrics, artists, minorities, dissidents, and those who fail to meet the common definitions of success.
Take just about any genre and this difference can be seen. Consider movies made for or about teenagers. On the mainstream side you've got "American Pie," "She's All That," "Varsity Blues," "Van Wilder," "Clueless," "Bring it On," and "Mean Girls." Basically a bunch of movies about beautiful, popular, perfect people. You've got the celebration of the jock culture and the high school social butterflies. Important note: I'm not bashing these films - many of them are great and occupy space on my DVD shelf. With studio, high-budget, mainstream films you've got to aim for mainstream values. Try the independent world and there's a different picture of teenage life: "Ghost World," "Welcome to the Dollhouse," "Kids," "Ken Park," "Napoleon Dynamite," "Clerks," "Slums of Beverly Hills," "L.I.E.," "Me and You and Everyone We Know," and "But I'm a Cheerleader."
Regardless of whether a film trumpets mainstream or minority values what matters are the characters. And that's where "Little Miss Sunshine" triumphs. It took me awhile, but by the end of the film - once the climax hits (and oh does it ever hit hard) - you're a part of the family.
It's with that thought in mind that a second viewing might be even better than the first. Having already seen the film once you've developed a relationship with the characters and can jump onboard their little yellow VW bus right from the beginning.

Hi there, just woke up early to prepare my breakfast. Of course, my mind is on a good MOOD to share my new topic to all of you out there.
To start off, I want to ask you something that is really an INTRIGUING question. Hey, have you ever met a married woman who still wanted to have SEX with you, despite her status? Well, this actually happens most of the time and even me, I experienced having sex with some married women a couple of times.
If I will compare this experience than going out with a single woman out there, I can say that this more beneficial. Why? In my own opinion, the relationship has no COMMITMENT so this means it's free, her intention is to sleep with you and when going out, you will not be spending alone! Hope you got my point here.
Okay, now I will reveal to you the SECRETS on how and where to find a married woman who will agree to have sex with you!
I had couple of sexual intercourse to married women out there and the last time was a few months ago. Well, I won't just name her as a sign of respect and for my safety as well. LOLZ
I actually met her through the Internet after I joined TAGGED. Yes, you heard it right my friend. I am not saying that all of the women here want to have sex. However, some women are searching for a partner to sleep with. Just like any other information you want to get online, this doesn't except SEX when surfing the web.
Now, I will just share to you my most intimate encounter with a sexy and pretty girl who used to work in a nightclub. It took me 3 weeks before I convinced her to go out with me and sleep with me just for once. She is MARRIED to an old foreign guy but his husband is not around that time. Since I now that she is longing for sex, I focused our conversation in topics about seduction and observe if she's comfortable.
Although I need to shift the topic at times, my focus is to seduce her and have sex because my OPPORTUNITY is already there. I know that she needs my CARE because his betterhalf isn't around. I even asked her about him and their sexual relationship, but she just said, "hey, change your topic please" then she smiled.
I know that she is already married BY LAW, so I need to be careful that no one will reveal our plans. Remember what I detailed above, we had sex but no commitment and this you have to keep in mind my friend.
Because she is longing for sex, wow, her ORGASM is definitely impressive when we are inside the hotel's bedroom. She loves to seat on top, which is exactly my favorite sex position. Afterwards, she gave me a mind-blowing BJ until we completed the first round of a very intimate sex. By the way, please do not perform oral sex on this kind of situation. Do not think negative about my opinion but it is for your own SAFETY my men.
If you think that you can still go out because his husband is not available, don't force her to have sex again. Like me, I usually ask a date away from our place and visit a fine dining to EAT and ENJOY our favorite foods. By doing this, I got her emotions better and even if I won't ask her to sleep with me, she actually is suggesting it already.
This happens because she is already comfortable with me and just a warning though, never ask her to go out or even dare to TEXT her if his partner is around. If you are married as well, give her a nice pet name on your contact numbers when using your cellular phone. This will protect you from being CAUGHT by your own wife. LOLZ
Always remember that you must not try to flirt with her all the time, rather be subtle and captivating. Observe your advantage over your RIVAL (I am referring to his husband) and do what he lacks to satisfy her wife. I tell you straightaway, you will cherish every opportunity you have if you follow my strategies with care.
Well, thanks for your time my friend, please do not hesitate to message me or leave a comment if you have interesting sexual experiences to share also.

Some-one please help. I noticed a notification on my Blackberry Desktop Manager to update. I did this but something happened to the DM that I was unable to open it, I uninstalled (via "programmes and features") both of the versions and then re-installed the "updated" version. Though it showed up in "programmes and features" there is no icon on my desktop and nothing appearing under "all programmes". I thought that perhaps the previous version was needed so I re-installed this also, but still nothing. I have unistalled and re-installed both versions on their own to try and get one to work, but nothing... PLEASE help! I have to connect via the desktop manager in order to use my phone as a modem (by instruction from my service provider)...

Struggling to be part
Of your affectionate heart
But nothing to expect.
Searching my share of
Fragments with your mind stuff
Still longing for whiff.
Oh this life always
Mingling with equal heartaches
Destined to be parted ways.
Whether this thing exists
I still be longing with tears
My existence persist with tests.
Rushing biddable thoughts
All the years with struggles
Misdeeds cause bitterness.
