The New York Rangers agreed to terms with restricted free agent Brandon Dubinsky on a 2-year, $3.7 million deal Saturday.
According to Newsday, Dubinsky was originally looking for a 4-year, $16 million deal while the Rangers made a one-year qualifying offer of $522,500.
Last season, the Alaska native scored 13 goals and added 28 assists for 41 points in 82 games. The 23-year-old also amassed 112 minutes in penalties in his second full NHL campaign.
In 2008, Dubinsky was named MVP of the NHL YoungStars Game at the All-Star Game, notching two goals and an assist. He was also selected as the winner of the Steven McDonald award by the fans, given to the player who performs 'above and beyond the call of duty'.
There had been speculation before training camp began that Dubinsky was being tabbed to centre the Rangers' top line with Marian Gaborik on the wing.
Newsday reports that Rangers general manager Glen Sather has instructed Dubinsky to report for practice on Monday.

Grab a cup of coffee and stay a while
Everything I have learned and experienced in one spot, getting closer to #summer (Taken with instagram)
Finals week is among us once more, a week where gummy bears are for some God awful reason satisfactory enough for dinner and the appropriate attire is Nike shorts or Victoria's Secret yoga pants.
But this finals weeks is a bit more complex than normal {if that was even possible, really}. This week, I end my very first internship with Horsepower. I was so incredibly blessed with this opportunity ten weeks ago, and am so thankful to the Horsepower family for everything they have taught me! But alas, all good things must come to an end, and a new group of exceptional ladies will become the newest Horsepower interns for the summer! But before I leave, I wanted to leave some useful advice for the new and future interns of Horsepower as they begin this new journey!
1. Don't be afraid to ask questions! In fact, don't be afraid to ask multiple question! That one question, is probably something no one else thought of!
2. LANDON FRIEND WILL BE LATE, it's just inevitable, but that doesn't mean you should be {don't kill me for this Landon, you said to be honest}.I spent a lot of time waiting for Landon, but hey I can't think of a better time to write a blog post or update Horsepower's Facebook and Twitter, can you?! ;)
3. Come prepared and bring everything with you: notebook, pen, laptop, planner, etc. I can't tell you how many meetings I had where all I did was write/type To Do lists of what I needed to get accomplished!
4. Make relationships. I'm sure you hear this ALL the time, but you will be in contact with SO many farmers, professors, restaurant owners, etc. I've realized that these are some of the MOST interesting people I have ever met; keep in contact with them, write a blog post about their business, or share/ comment on their posts in social media avenues. Whatever you do, make sure it is always kind and genuine.
5. ….and finally, HAVE FUN! Horsepower has one of the best environments I have worked in! Everyone is laid back, incredibly welcoming, but most importantly passionately hardworking. Horsepower has a vision, and everyone is working hard to achieve that vision and more!
I wish you all the very best, and may your journey with this internship be all that you have hoped for. Thank you again to Horsepower, I can never express in words my gratitude for everything that I have learned and the experiences I have had!
{P.S…girls never be afraid to take the Nerf gun and go full-fledged Katniss on the boys, sometimes it's necessary}
On this day, sixteen years ago, my family lost a piece of the puzzle. We would have never imagined he would be taken away from us at such a young age, but at 18 years old only shy of about a week till his high school graduation, my godfather passed away of an enlarged heart. At only four years old, you simply just don't get it. I honestly didn't get it, until I was 18 years old.
It hit me that I now had lived a longer life then he did, and every experience I would have from now on, he didn't get the chance to have. There isn't a day that goes by that I don't think of him, and I pray that he is watching over me and is proud to call me his goddaughter!
Padrinho (Tio Bell), I love you so incredibly much. I wish so badly that you were still here with us. I would have loved to see what you were going to do after graduation, who you were going to marry, what your children would look like. But that wasn't God's plan. I couldn't agree more when they say that God chooses the most beautiful roses from the garden to be his angels. One day we will see each other once more, but till that day, I just wanted to say I LOVE YOU and even 16 years later, I am a better person because of you!
Amanda, the intern, here! Yesterday I had the opportunity of hearing a motivational speech from Matt Rush. Rush is a fifth generation farmer from New Mexico and currently serves as the Executive Vice President of the New Mexico Farm & Livestock Bureau. With his speech titled, "There is a Snake…
I'm beginning my last week as a teenager. Soon, I'll be in my twenties. I'm actually quite excited for this next decade. I imagine many scenes from "Sex and the City" when I think of my twenties. Sitting around a coffee shop or sipping a Cosmo at a bar with my favorite girls {it all sounds so glamorous} But before I make this hard to get used too transition, I always like to make a set of goals for myself before the next birthday! So here it is, the twenty things I would like to do before I turn 21…
1. Take more photos
2. Update blog regularly :)
3. Read at least one book a month {any suggestions to get me started?}
4. Exercise regularly
5. Complete half marathon {September 2nd Disneyland Half Marathon with Alex, YAYY}
6. Learn how to love your body {sucking pretty bad at this one lately}
7. Get an internship for the summer
8. Be asked to go out on a date {REFUSE to be 21 and Dateless}
9. Read more books regarding my faith
10. Publish an AMAZING Ag Circle Magazine
11. Strengthen my relationships
12. Never panic, just pray
13. Take a road trip with friends
14. Finish my minor
15. Work hard throughout the ENTIRE quarter, DON'T GIVE UP!
16. Have more of a positive outlook on life
17. Make more phone calls to catch up with friends
18. Make coffee dates with friends a priority in life
19. Learn more about photography
I can't wait to have these posted up in my room somewhere so I can refer back to them often and share with all of you how everything is going in my 20th year {ahhhhhhhhhh}
Until next time LOVES, Amanda :)
One month from today I'll be boarding a 9 hour flight to Terceira, Azores, Portugal, the archipelago off the coast of Portugal….
Where I will be living for five weeks in this house…which belongs to my grandparents {isn't it precious?!}
This trip will make the fifth time my family and I have gone to the old country {as I like to call it}. Until, two years ago, my dad had both of his parents alive and living there. Today we only have with us my Avo {grandma in Portuguese} so we try to go as often as we can to get to see her! Isn't she the most precious thing you have ever seen!? But seriously, best grandma award to this one, she played a HUGE role in the first five years of my life, and wish we didn't have to live so far away. I sometimes wonder what my life would have been like if she had stayed in America. I know my life would have been filled with even more love, cause this woman is an absolute saint and loved her grandkids so passionately.
I feel like I have been to the Azores so often now, that being there no longer seems like a time to sight see {I mean the island is only so big}. Being there now is just a chance to reconnect with my family, get them up to date on what has happened since the last time I saw them, and enjoy EVERY SINGLE MOMENT we have with them. Although five weeks may seem like a long time in theory, it goes incredibly fast. And before you know, we're balling our eyes out in the car to the airport, and making a scene at the terminal gates. The anxiety of knowing goodbyes are soon to come is the WORST feeling possible, imagine having to tell the ones you love "Goodbye and until next time" without even knowing when the next time will be and if there even will be a next time.
Even with some reservations, I am incredibly excited to head back to the old country. To make memories with my family, be reminded how blessed I am, and finally to be humbled by the AMAZING family that I have once more.
{I wasn't kidding when I said old country….cows still walk on the road to get to a new pasture, and they have their own exits on the freeway…no joke}
1. The longer I live in SLO, the more I fall in love with it! I never want to leave, or want to find a town A LOT like it! Coffee, lunch, a beautiful day, and studying outside with my lovely roommates makes life absolutely WONDERFUL!
2. On these warm sunny days, all I want is iced coffee!
3. WOW Training week #7 was themed dress like your major!
4. Found this is in the Marshall's dressing room, and it completely made my day! If you want to find out how you can make someone's day with a simple note, click HERE!
5. So I've had the same best friends since pretty much as long as I can remember. We grew up together doing all the activities our Portuguese community has to offer! Now that we are all grown and off our separate ways for college, I cherish the time we do get to spend with each other! I miss hanging out with them so much sometimes!
6. My younger sister Ashley and I. People always think she is the oldest, no actually I'm older, by 5 years {I'm ashamed to even say that, whyyyy did I have to be so short!?}
I absolutely LOVE birthdays.
Not just my own birthday, but everyone's birthday.
I will go completely out of my way to make someone's day special.
I believe that every birthday should be celebrated and acknowledged passionately.
No matter if you are turning 9 or 99.
Growing up, I HATED the day of my birthday. The day May 28th brought sadness throughout my entire family rather than celebration. On May 28, 1996 {my 4th birthday} my godfather died at the young age of only 18. From then on, that day would be soiled with the memory of his passing and the realization that he wasn't with us for another year.
My selfish self thought that it was such a burden to have the death of my godfather on MY birthday. Out of all the 364 other days in the year, God had to choose that one! Until I was close to reaching my own 18th birthday. That's when everything changed and a VERY humbling realization occurred.
In a short two months after my 18th birthday, I would have outlived my godfather. I would be given the chance to experience more of life. I would get to graduate with my senior class, attend college in the fall, and someday marry and have a family of my own. Things that my godfather never got the opportunity to do. I firmly believe that God chose May 28th for a reason. The day May 28th has become a day where I have the chance to realize the many blessings in my life.
So yes, I do love making a BIG deal about birthdays. But you must understand that even amongst the celebration I am constantly thinking about how I had the blessing of experiencing another year and ultimately praying that my godfather is there with me as I go on the journey of the next year to come!
{For your enjoyment….my 1st Birthday, wasn't I precious?!}
15 From My Current Bucket List:
1. Spend Carnaval in Terceira
2. Run a half marathon {running the Disneyland Half Marathon in September with my roommate Alex, sooo excited}
3. Visit well known cities in Europe {you know, the usual: Rome, Paris, Barcelona, etc}
4. Visit the "Full House" title sequence house {CHECK}
5. Take a picture with a street sign that says Meneses
6. Wear a BEAUTIFUL wedding dress
7. Own a DSLR camera
8. Experience Christmas and New Years in New York
9. Make a wish at the Trevi Fountain
10. Meet my other half
11. Grow old with someone
12. Be called MOMMY :)
13. Have my dad walk me down the aisle {I'm a hopeless romantic if you couldn't tell}
14. Spend an entire day cuddling ;)
15. Be on Dancing With The Stars {Derek Hough as my partner please}
1. My addiction to Starbucks continues, there honestly is nothing better than a warm day in SLO and a cup of iced coffee!
2. Spring Training for WOW continues….this week's dress up theme was Cartoon Characters
3. Went to court for the first time today to appeal a traffic ticket I received for following the car in front of me too closely! Let's just say that it didn't go as well I had hoped! Guess the judge didn't appreciate the fact that I looked BOMB!
4. Not only has the internship at Horsepower been incredible, I am blessed with getting to work at such a beautiful location. This is what I get to see every day I go into the office :) {not too shabby, right!?}
5. Hunting for a house to rent for next school year in SLO, might be one of the most stressful things I have ever done. It's giving me a headache just typing this out {no I'm serious}
6. I've stopped taking the Grand exit to get back onto campus, just so that I can take California. I LOVE the road lined with palm trees and I finally had a chance to snap a photo of it!

It is a smart solution but i really don't want to see 10 man versions of Malygos and The Lich King. I mean having most of the instance in 10 man form is fine, i just don't want to see these powerful figures nerfed into 10 man form. I think having 90% of the instance and leaving the final boss out of the 10 mans would be the best way to solve this. It would be like doing TK with 10 people but not being able to fight Kael which makes sense to me.
It doesn't make sense to me, let the casual finish all game in there time and us the raiders finish 25-man as we wish. Both casual and raiders PAY same sum of money for the game, so why should raiders get all content and casual only 90% of it ?
Best thing ever blizz could posibly think about.
Arguably, using a small group might feel more "natural", heroic and in line with traditional fantasy and RPG concepts. A small group or a single hero is all that it takes to unroot a great evil. We all know that :-)
But really, I do not see the issue here, everyone wins. Except for people who always complain, but its their attitude that drives them down, not the world around them.
I want to say that I fully *support* the idea of a 10-man raid, btw. =) I pay just as much as anyone else, and it would be nice to see the end-game content for myself.
Warcraft is a game, and it's supposed to be fun. My idea of fun are 10-man raids, and some people's idea of fun are 25-man raids. :) People who do the 10-man raids, though, won't get the same loot as those who do the 25-man. So, it's all good.

Heart Disease Health Center
Exercise Electrocardiogram
How To Prepare continued...
Talk to your doctor about any concerns you have regarding the need for the test, its risks, how it will be done, or what the results will mean. To help you understand the importance of this test, fill out the medical test information form(What is a PDF document?).
Your doctor may recommend how you should eat before the test. For example, your doctor may suggest you only eat a light breakfast before your test.
An exercise EKG may be dangerous and should not be done in some situations. Be sure to tell your doctor if you:
- Think you are having a heart attack.
- Are having chest pain that is not relieved with rest (unstable angina).
- Have high blood pressure that is not controlled with medicine.
- Have untreated, life-threatening irregular heart rhythms (arrhythmias).
- Have severe narrowing of one of your heart valves (aortic valve stenosis).
- Have an infection in your heart muscle (myocarditis).
- Have a severe decrease in the amount of red blood cells (anemia).
- Have a stretched and bulging section in the wall of the large artery that carries blood from the heart (aortic aneurysm) or in one of the chambers of the heart (ventricular aneurysm).
- Have severe lung disease.
Remove all jewelry from your neck, arms, and wrists. Wear flat, comfortable shoes (no bedroom slippers) and loose, lightweight shorts or sweat pants. Men are usually bare-chested during the test. Women often wear a bra, T-shirt, or hospital gown. Avoid wearing any restrictive clothing other than a bra.
You may want to stretch your arm and leg muscles before beginning an exercise EKG.
How It Is Done
An exercise electrocardiogram (EKG or ECG) is usually done in a doctor's office, clinic, or hospital lab by a health professional or doctor. The test results are evaluated by an internist, family medicine doctor, or cardiologist.
Before the test
- Areas on your arms, legs, and chest where small metal discs (electrodes) will be placed are cleaned and may be shaved to provide a clean, smooth surface to attach the discs. A special EKG paste or small pads soaked in alcohol may be placed between the discs and your skin to improve conduction of the electrical impulses, but in many cases disposable discs are used that do not require paste or alcohol.
- The electrodes are hooked to a machine that traces your heart activity onto a piece of paper. Your chest may be loosely wrapped with an elastic band to keep the electrodes from falling off during exercise. A blood pressure cuff will be wrapped around your upper arm so that your blood pressure can be checked every few minutes during the test.
During the test
For exercise, you typically either walk on a treadmill or pedal on a stationary bicycle while being monitored by an EKG machine. Your EKG will be monitored on screen, and paper copies will be printed out for later review before you start the exercise, at the end of each section of exercise, and while you are recovering.

The uneasy but essential evolution of news
The power balance shift to a superuser audience
Technology and social media are shifting the power balance from publishers and broadcasters to consumers.
The audience, empowered with tools to choose, create, enrich and share, is the new superuser offering alternative sources and channels of information to those of mainstream providers.
To survive, media organisations must create a clear editorial differential and embrace changing audience behaviour.
So how is mainstream media coping?
Some have done well to adapt to their new role, others are struggling to keep up. Media organisations must harness social media for newsgathering and news dissemination, and create fact factories to deliver content to every device their audience turns to for information. By doing so they could free up resources in order to focus on producing quality, original journalism. If they don't they could suffer.
The power and control is now in the hands of the audience
The audience is now the superuser
Multiplatform is essential, not an option
A shot in the arm for journalism
The news production line
Journalism is about uncovering facts and delivering them to the audience. Along the way we check, verify, attribute, prioritise and add background information to support those facts. Then we present them. It's a fairly simple production line logic; gather material, process it and then offer it to the customer.
In many ways it's similar to most production lines. News organisations are essentially fact factories; each trying to come up with a production formula and quality of product that best matches the needs of their target audience. In doing so they are trying to establish a differential that secures a viable presence in the market.
The broadcast at model
Before the internet and digital - when it was just about newspaper publishing and broadcasting - the models were fairly straightforward. We, the media, published and broadcast at the audience. We did our market research, and we created products we thought would sell, but there was no audience engagement – unless you count carefully selected letters to the editors and heavily produced talk shows.
The engage with on our terms model
Gradually we allowed the audience to be part of the process, but only on our terms. We would publish letters to the editor, invite participants to take part in live TV and radio shows, and encourage people to comment on our online forums. But we would select the topics for discussion and we would publish or air only those comments that fitted our editorial thrust.
The participate model
Digital and online media changed all that in a number of ways:
Caught off-guard by the speed of change
What media organisations failed to grasp at first – and it's understandable because things changed so fast – was that news had to be delivered to the audience on whatever device they turned to, not just on the main legacy platform – be it print or broadcast.
The industry tried its best to respond as new devices/platforms appeared. Publishers and broadcasters created websites and produced mobile and digital versions of their content to try to keep up. Much of it, at first, was a copy-paste version of the main product, sometimes produced off-site, in some cases by a different team working away from the main newsroom. It was a brave effort, although it was fraught with problems, many of which were down to a lack of an editorial strategy.
Embracing convergence
In 1997, I was one of the editors asked to set up and launch BBC News Online. To get the site up and running we had to find a newsroom, hire staff and fight to get hold of any content from our broadcast colleagues. We were seen as a poor relation and a bit of a distraction to many; some also clearly saw us as competition.
The broadcasters were on the first floor at BBC Television Centre in London. We were on the seventh. They guarded their content in order to protect their scheduled programmes. We wanted to publish the news as it happened and update it day and night, 24 hours a day and seven days a week.
Two years later I was hired to be the launch managing editor for CNN.com Europe Middle East and Africa (EMEA). It was the first international English-language version of CNN to be produced outside America. At first the plan was that we would build our own newsroom and create a new global site with an EMEA focus. Because of space restriction we had to occupy a different floor to our broadcast colleagues, but in terms of co-operation around news, the attitude couldn't have been more different. We put all our efforts into convergence. We shared news meetings, prospects, staff and technical resources.
Because of that I was able to introduce a system of publishing called multiplatform authoring (MPA), where content created once by one journalist could go out in an instant on multiple revenue-generating platforms. At one stage we were serving 10 such platforms from our online stories at the press of the save button.
A few years later, as an editorial and strategy consultant for the launch of Al Jazeera English, we were working with one converged newsroom based around a centralised command-and-control superdesk where all the main news decisions were made. However, even then it was a fight to get the TV team to see the importance of having a web duty editor sitting in the main newsroom. The online material was prepared in another room on another floor. Amazing how much has changed over such a short period.
Leapfrogging legacy problems
For the last 10 years I have been advising on the creation of converged newsrooms for both print and broadcast media organisations worldwide, setting up converged newsrooms in Africa, the Middle East, the Caucasus and Asia.
Things continue to move at a rapid pace. A big driver has been the growth of mobile and the decline in the use of so-called traditional mainstream media.
What also seems apparent is that media houses outside the heavily-developed Western media scene are often far more agile and able to adapt and evolve without all the navel-gazing, table-thumping and kicking and screaming that can take place where legacy workflows, roles and responsibilities, empires and influence are entrenched and threatened.
I have introduced converged newsrooms in Tbilisi, Hanoi and Harare simply by moving a few chairs and desks and setting up a central superdesk. Sometimes it's involved knocking down a few partition walls and creating a space where everyone can breathe the same news air and hear the same news calls.
In all cases it's been important to help media managers and journalists understand that if they share and work together they can create a more dynamic, compelling and user-focused product than if they fight for the status quo.
Of course it helps when there is total buy-in from the top where those in charge realise that convergence is a business essential not a disruptive distraction.
A change of thinking is needed
The time has come for publishers to forget they are publishers and for broadcasters to forget they are broadcasters.
Those of us who are in the business of producing news need to ensure that we are delivering content to whatever device the audience is turning to in order to access information. If there is a platform where we don't have a presence we are missing an opportunity and probably missing an audience.
If our production priorities, workflows, roles and responsibilities and resources are all focused on one platform only, we may be not only limiting our news organisation's growth but also losing audience and revenue.
And if we deliver to a new platform we need to ensure that we improve and enrich our content to make it rewarding.
We are asking the audience to give us its time - a precious resource - and the audience will come back only if that experience is the best they can get in the time they have available and on the device they use.
How we respond to these digital demands will determine whether we will survive as a media business. The good news is that it can be done, is being done, and it isn't as hard as it sounds.

"Untitled" by pyrrhocorax for the community
"two of my prompts were Mewtwo and a list of tarot cards. the card that seemed most to represent him (as seen in the movies) was The Lovers as it represents finding your ideals so I did a Mewtwo version. the windmills are from New Island and the island and the lake are where he was living in the sequel. I hope you like it!"
I will never again draw a Mewtwo. NEVER.
This song was submitted to me, signed by the celebrated poet "Pooh Bear" (who doesn't seem to have a tumblr). Here is a link to the tune.
Salamander Love Song
To the tune of "Waly Waly" and "The Water is Wide":
Sing glub glub glub glub as you walk,
Sing glub glub glub glub on your way
For we do go to pick mushrooms
And I'll be by you all the day.
My love is gentle and so kind,
He likes mushrooms that are pale blue,
He like them hot, he likes them cold,
He is a wizard, through and through.
Secret Wizard:
My love looks handsome in his hat,
And he looks nice without it too,
He loves me dear and I love him,
My love for him will e'er be true.
There are two baskets on our arms,
Both loaded deep as deep can be;
But far more deep, the love I bear
For my dear friend and his for me.
reblogging this on my art blog because goddamn that was a lot of mushrooms to draw.

Avoidant Personality Disorder
Individuals with avoidant personality disorder desire relationships but avoid them because of the anxiety produced by their sense of inadequacy.
Lifetime prevalence is 0.5% to 1 % of the general population and appears to be of equal prevalence in men and women.
There are no conclusive data. The pattern of avoidance may start in infancy.
Clinical Manifestations
History and Mental Status Examination
People with avoidant personality disorder experience intense feelings of inadequacy. They are painfully sensitive to criticism, so much so that they are compelled to avoid spending time with people. Their fears of rejection and humiliation are so powerful that to engage in a relationship they seek strong guarantees of acceptance. The essence of this disorder is inadequacy, hypersensitivity to criticism, and consequent social inhibition.
Differential Diagnosis
The major diagnostic distinction is between avoidant personality disorder and social phobia, generalized type.

Six people, most of them Taliban insurgents, were executed on Wednesday following the eight hanged on Tuesday, Attorney General Office said.
The six hanged in prison on Wednesday include Mohammad Haidar son of Mohammad Rahim and a Tajikistan national, Motawakil son of Abdul Wakil from Kabul, and Aziz Ahmad son of Faiz Mohammad from Ghazni province - all convicted organisers of two suicides attacks in Kabul, according to the Attorney General.
At least two people have been killed including a civilian in an attempted suicide attack near a US base in Kabul on Wednesday morning, local officials said.
The incident took place about 8:20 AM local time when a man wearing a suicide vest was shot and killed by Afghan security forces near a US base in Street 14 of the Wazir Akbar Khan district, Kabul police chief Gen. Ayub Salangi said.
Local Afghan banks are sending vast amounts of money abroad which is causing foreign currency inflation, head of Afghanistan's Central Bank Noorullah Delawari said on Wednesday.
Delawari claimed before Parliament that $4.6 billion was smuggled outside of Afghanistan last year.

I am currently reading And So It Goes, a biography of Kurt Vonnegut by Charles Shields. It's a very interesting experience: I've been reading Vonnegut's books for more than half of my life, some a few times over, and since he includes a lot of autobiographical material in his books I felt like I knew a lot about him—more than I know about some of my friends.
I'm not very far into the book (I just finished the bombing of Dresden) but I've already learned a ton of new stuff, especially about his childhood and early family life. If you're a big fan of his work you should definitely check it out.
One interesting aspect of the book is that he really didn't become KURT VONNEGUT (beloved author) until he was in his 40s. Prior to that he went from career to career, supporting a large family, struggling to get make it as writer and generally feeling like a loser. I admit I took some solace in this.
I also think it's peculiar that he titled the book And So it Goes when, as Linda Ellerbee (who also had a book with that title) pointed out, Vonnegut's phrase as just "So it goes."
Must read
Putting this on my to read list.

Soaking Up Old-World Elegance in Chicago, Illinois
Yes, nothing says urban and hip and ultra-modern like downtown Chicago. Yet if you wander through Grant Park at dusk, you may wonder if you've been whisked from the city of famous gangsters and transported to the streets of Paris instead. When Kate Buckingham visited Europe she wanted to share its graceful street fountains with her native Chicagoans—which she did on a grand scale. Today the luminous glow of Buckingham Fountain is a drop of old-world elegance in the middle of the Windy City. And while Louis XIV may have inspired the fountain's design and a French sculptor carved the seahorse statues, the backdrop of blazing skyscrapers along Michigan Avenue is pure Chicago.

Blog Link: The Transition Tango in Fiji.
Posted on 11:35, October 3rd, 2013 by Pablo
Over at 36th Parallel Assessments I explore some of the dynamics that are and will be key factors in the political transition to free and open elections in Fiji scheduled for mid 2014. Unique circumstances in Fiji notwithstanding, the success of a transition from military-bureaucratic authoritarianism to freely elected government (if not democracy) hinges on some key factors, particularly the interplay between regime and opposition hard- and soft-liners. The essay explains how and why.

Blog Link: A "Guarded" Democracy in Fiji.
Posted on 11:15, January 17th, 2013 by Pablo
The rejection of the 2013 draft constitution by the Baimimarama regime in Fiji (a constitution drafted by a panel of international jurists and partially funded by New Zealand), has led to speculation as to whether the promised 2014 elections will be held. What has not been mentioned in press coverage of the constitutional crisis is an end-game that is neither dictatorial or democratic: elections leading to a "guarded" democracy. In this analysis I outline some reasons why the prospect of a guarded democracy in Fiji should be considered to be very real.

Mummy helmer Stephen Sommers has created another monster. Having squeezed three seminal works of supernatural fiction (Dracula, Frankenstein and Dr Jekyll And Mr Hyde) into one unsatisfying whole, the writer/director then tosses in a pinch of outdated 007 attitude before allowing the resulting cock-up to destroy memories of the golden age of horror cinema.
The story, when it's able to make itself heard, has vampire hunter Van Helsing (Hugh Jackman) on the case of arch-meanie Count Dracula (Richard Roxburgh). At times you can feel Sommers straining to keep this unravelling concept in one piece. His usual response to such narrative crises is to yank the ILM emergency cord, summoning forth CG beasties to roar over the blanks.

► The White House has issued a National Strategy for Counterterrorism policy statement. In the cover letter, the President states, "To defeat al-Qa'ida, we must define with precision and clarity who we are fighting, setting concrete and realistic goals...consistent with our core values...." The strategy document goes on to state that "The preeminent security threat to the United States continues to be from al-Qa'ida and its affiliates and adherents (including those in the Middle East, East Africa, the Maghreb and Sahel regions of northwest Africa, Central Asia, and Southeast Asia. "Beyond al-Qa'ida, other foreign terrorist organizations threaten U.S. national security interests. These groups seek to undermine the security and stability of allied and partner governments, foment regional conflicts, traffic in narcotics, or otherwise pursue agendas that are inimical to U. S. interests. Whether these are groups that operate globally, as Hizballah or HAMAS do, or are terrorist organizations located and focused domestically, we are committed to working vigorously and aggressively to counter their efforts and activities even as we avoid conflating them and al-Qa'ida into a single enemy," it states.
► Wiretap applications are up 34 percent since the last annual report, according to data from the Federal Judiciary. A new report released this week, containing data from January to December 2010, shows that Federal judges approved 1,207 wiretaps, and 1,987 were authorized by state judges. "Historical data reveal applications are rarely turned down," The Legal Times reports. Eighty-four percent of all wiretaps were in drug related cases. These wire taps led to 4,700 arrests and 800 convictions.
► A British think-tank says that if Britain wants to stay on the leading edge of cybersecurity, it should consider hiring "bedroom hackers" to help fight cybercrime. The Institute for Security and Resilience Studies says the government needs to develop more innovative ideas to tackle the problem, the Telegraph reports. An expert from the institute has written to the Foreign Secretary and the Defense Secretary, asking them to consider building a Cyber-Resilience Task Force. "The task force would look at how to train and recruit computer experts from outside the mainstream, including former hackers who want to help fight off attacks from Chinese and Russian spies and from organized criminal gangs," the Telegraph reports.
► In related news, computer hackers targeting al Qaeda took out their communications systems, MSNBC reports. The attack was well-coordinated and used sophisticated techniques, according to one terrorism expert. "My guess is that it will take them at least several days more to repair the damage and get their network up and functioning again, Evan Kohlmann, of Flashpoint Global Partners, which monitors the group's communications, told MSNBC. No groups have taken credit for the attack.
► With the future in mind, employee-screening companies are actively looking for ways to make screening more convenient and mobile. A new app from BeenVerified shows the potential, though it is not structured as a business background screening app. The app allows users to run free background checks from their Android devices and iPhones by searching through information like social media profiles, criminal records, and online shopping lists, Gizmodo reports. "There is all this information floating around that is publicly available. It just happens to be information about people. Everything it found about me was also available with a Google sleuthing. It just did it faster and automatically," Gizmodo wrote Matt Honan wrote after using the app to run a background check on himself. "It was amazingly comprehensive," he wrote.
► In other news, U.S. Secretary of Homeland Security Janet Napolitano said as the threat of homegrown terrorists increases, the Department of Homeland Security is recruiting local police to help track down terrorists. ♦ The FDA approves generic forms of anthrax treatment drugs. ♦ And a judge rules that Google can be sued for violating wiretap laws for accessing WiFi data while using their Street View mapping cars.

LOST Marathon, Milepost 24: We Are Just the Pieces
- Sunday, January 31, 2010
Sun: Locke kept his promise to Jin not to visit Sun.
Abaddon describes himself as someone who "helps people get to where they need to get to" - just like he did with Locke by convincing him to go on the Walkabout, the one that put him on 815. So if Widmore was the one who wanted Locke on the plane that crashed on the island, can it be assumed he's telling the truth at least about how long the island has wanted John to come there?
One thing Ben and Widmore have in common is wanting Locke and all his friends to get back to the island. But for some reason, Ben gets to go on the Ajira flight. Why not Charles? And which one is Hawking more loyal to?
Locke lies to several of the people he visits one way or another. Has he become Ben, just without the ability to convince people to act? This Locke was pretty much the same old Locke we always knew and sometimes loved (sometimes not so much), who was crippled by poor communication and a lifetime of so many issues and uncertainties. Which is why it's so obvious to me now that the Flocke guy walking around on Hyrda Island, standing on the beach like Jesus after his resurrection, is not Locke at all, but Jacob's nemesis.
Hurley mentions to Locke that Kate has Aaron. And we have to ask, since they've driven it into our skulls so much that "EVERYONE who left must come back," such that Locke would even go to visit Walt, why does this not apply to Aaron? It's not even broached that it should!
Kate borrows a black dress from Sun, leaving Aaron with her, to visit the lawfirm of the men who threatened her. As she leaves, Sun gets a package containing a file on Ben, black and white photos of Ben (with Jack), and a box of chocolates, under which is a gun.
Norton says his client won't divulge anything, but wants to handle the 'exchange of custody' quietly. We're supposed to wonder if maybe this is Claire's mom getting involved? We can safely assume that "Mr. Norton" may be another off-island Other with a legit real-world job, ala Jill the Butcher.
Jack gets in trouble for treating Sayid while under suspension. While he's getting chewed out, Hurley calls from jail to say he's safe, that Ben won't get him, tell Sayid I did what he said.
While Jack's out of the room, a nurse comes in with "meds" for Sayid, who suspects something. Guy tries to put two darts in him, but Sayid was already off the bed. Somebody wants to capture him alive very badly. Sayid finds the address "42 Panorama Crest" in the assailant's pocket. It's Kate's address. Just more machinations by Ben. If he succeeds in tranquing Sayid, great. If not, get him to that address.
For Ben's purposes, it's REALLY convenient that Sun happens to be in LA right now (to kill him). It's the first time I've ever let myself wonder if he and Widmore ALSO share a common purpose (to get the O6 back there - and maybe Widmore assisted in that with talking to Sun before she left for LA? Widmore does tell Locke he'll do whatever he can to help Locke get all his friends together).
Kate, staking out Norton, is suprised to see Jack clean shaven and sober. They tail Norton to a hotel. Kate assumes this is the client meeting Norton told her about, so when it ends up that he's meeting with Carole Littleton, she can only assume one thing. Really though, Norton is just there with Carole as part of a suit against Oceanic.
The carpet van in which Ben and Sayid are driving Locke's body around is for a company called "Canton-Rainier" (anagram of "Reincarnation") which foreshadows that we can be pretty certain to see Locke up and walking again, even though that's not technically reincarnation. Nor do I think we see a resurrection - though I always hoped that was the case. I think it's more of a reanimation.
The van pulls into a garage to meet up with Mr. Norton -- now we know who his client is that's harrassing Kate. Ben spurred her into action. Norton has also secured Hugo's release from jail the next day, as the medical examiner determined the man outside Santa Rosa was shot before Hurley escaped.

Adiel crept into the master bedroom carefully, quiet as a mouse.
She was trying very hard not to wake up either occupant in case she had just been hearing things and the two of them were peacefully sleeping. However, peeking her head through the door and looking around, she saw Zebediah with his hands holding up his head, blankly staring at his knees – and Allen nowhere in sight.
"…Zeb?" she called out softly, earning a flinch in reply. "Zeb, where's Allen?"
Zebediah only shook his head, leaving Adiel to look around and see the bathroom light on. She stepped into the room, waiting for Zebediah to tell her to leave; when he didn't, she quickly made her way over to the bathroom, looking around for the familiar, lanky figure of the man she secretly called 'father'.
Dark eyes finally found him collapsed on the ground.
Stepping over to him, hands suddenly shaking, Ellie fell to her knees next to her guardian and reached out, touching his shoulder. She shook him, not wanting to turn him and upset him or hurt him. But he didn't move. He didn't even jerk under her fingers.
"Allen, c'mon, you can't…sleep on the bathroom floor…it's – it's dirty! And uncomfortable…you need to go back to bed." She shook him a little harder, but still nothing happened. Feeling her heart in her throat (hearing sirens in the distance listening as the people around her gathered around and wondered oh what happened what's wrong with that woman oh is she dying dreadful how dreadful), she turned to the bathroom door.
"Zeb! Zeb, come help! Something's wrong with Allen!"
But she got nothing in return and Ellie shook the doctor harder.
"Allen, wake up, please, you said you'd always wake up if I needed you! You said you would! You promised!"
But still nothing. Allen wouldn't wake up, and Zebediah wouldn't listen.
And all she could hear was Momma begging her to please, please smile, Ellie-belly, please.
Please Daddy please, please, please…

Hello, lovelies :)
First, I don't think we've been formally introduced. My name is Tracy. I am black and I am a woman. I'm currently a writer at BuzzFeed.com. I'm 31 years old, graduated from a small liberal arts college in Kentucky, where I'm from. I majored in English and minored in women's studies. I'm a feminist/womanist, i love penguins, hate squirrels, and I literally turn into Beyoncé when 'Partition' comes on. Nice to meet you all!
So. I've seen this picture floating around all over Facebook and Instagram today, shared on the latter by rapper Bun B:
This kind of backlash isn't new - my first interview ever was given to Channing Kennedy at Colorlines, where I spoke some on "talking outside the family," aka sharing inside jokes in a public space (ie - where white people can access them). It's a pretty good read, if I do say so myself. Channing's a great writer and had some great questions.
But this year the backlash seems extra intense, and I have a couple of theories as to why. One is that since this blog began waaaay way back in 2008, it has become an official meme, with people making their own facts and posting them on social media. Some of them are pretty freaking awful. The satirical component is lost and they're just unfunny and offensive. So, I wanted to drop a little note on how to tell which #LKBHF did NOT come from this site.
I'm also of the opinion that some are upset because we're not supposed to speak about ourselves, our history, or our shared cultural experiences in anything less than respectful Mahogany card prose, especially when people outside the culture may be watching.
One thing I am not is ignorant or unappreciative of our collective struggles as a marginalized people. I have been through and seen too much as a black woman growing up in Kentucky for that to be a possibility. This blog's intention is not to lampoon black history. It is to poke fun at the idea of Black History Month as a salve, to highlight the ridiculousness in the notion that 28 days of microwaved facts are an adequate homage to the whole history of such a sundry people. I don't hate Black History Month. I hate the pigeonholing, the diluting, the aftertaste of forced appeasement that comes along with it being recognized in schools and public spaces.
And, of course, another big point of this blog is to have fun! Black folks are colorful and beautiful and so are the things that we go through and we have permission to laugh at them and our shared experiences. Wherever we want.
"This is why we can't have nice things," says the internet. "How can we expect others to respect us when we don't respect ourselves?" Honey, the Klan wasn't formed because black people "didn't respect themselves." Black voters aren't disenfranchised because we "don't appreciate our history." Those things happen/ed because there are awful horrible racist people in the world, and they will exist no matter how hard we try to prove to them that we really are good people worthy of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. We've been trying to do that for centuries. Anyone who would take these sorts of jokes and use them as a reason to mock or hate or discriminate against black people will do so anyway.
"Treat others as you wish to be treated" is in the Bible. If Jesus can't teach folks to be decent people, I fear that I stand little chance of doing so, and putting that burden on someone just because they are a minority is extremely unfair. This is the problem with respectability politics. We shouldn't have to live perfectly in hopes that the majority will not treat us poorly (especially when the idea of what is "respectable" is so arbitrary and subjective and impossible to attain in everyone's eyes). I should not have to give you reasons to treat me like a human being and not be a racist piece of shit — me being a human being should be enough for that. Anyone who takes anything found on this site (or in any space where black people refuse to retreat to some dark corner to talk about and be themselves) and turns it into ammunition is already flawed to a point that would not be lessened by this blog or the meme not existing. Being tasked with making sure white people are not awful people simply because I'm black is a draining burden and i will not do it.
And if this site or the memes it inspired, for better or worse, are the world's only/main exposure to black history, then there's a MUCH bigger problem that needs to be addressed.
I'm not here to tell anyone how to feel. I just wanted to say my first and last words on the current debate, since I guess I've had a hand in the birth of this meme.
All that being said, back to the facts!
First person to say aloud that she prefers big Luther to skinny Luther.
First preacher to ask if he can get a witness up in here.
First person to deny a child by claiming that it was "the milkman's baby."
First person to wind the tape back inside a cassette by using a pencil.
First person to ask for a kiss by saying "gimmie some sugar!"
Hotep, brothers and sisters!
I just realized that I forgot to post a word of thanks at the conclusion of last year's Black History Month, and forgot to announce that we're back at it this month, too!
Let's get ready for 28 more days of revolutionary learning. Spread the word! Knowledge is a weapon! Turn up!
First person to use the word "raw" to describe something impressive (i.e.: Did you see Carlos' new Cutlass? That car is raw).
First person to tell somebody "what had happened."
First person to end every sentence with "…it is what it is."
First person to begin every sentence with, "at the end of the day…"
First person to use a wire hanger as a television antenna.
First person to ask her natural haired granddaughter when she's going to "do somethin' to that head."
First person to call in to a radio station to dedicate a song to her significant other.
First person to fake the funk.
First person to pose like this in a picture.
First person to refer to Bill Clinton as the first black president.
First black woman to dye her hair blonde.
First person to sing "And I Am Telling You" in a talent show.
First person to leave his Christmas lights up all year round.

Customer Reviews
I bought two of these, and I should have known better. Like a lot of "as seen on TV" products, this one does not work as advertised, not with my dog anyway. It is difficult and time consuming to attach, and my dog pays no more attention to a tug on her middle than she does to one on her neck. I just use it as a regular leash and it does OK for that. I will find someone to give the second one to.
Ordered four leashes and they arrived timely. These leashes do not fit all dogs, but they will go on all dogs. Tried to make them work but could not and was time consuming! The snap link is cheap with a very exposed spring that could easily come out. The webbing is of poor quality and thin and not suitable for walking bigger dogs. The leash is a good idea that does not work and failed in my tests. No further comment.
Seems to work. 110 lb. daughter now handling 90 lb. American pit bull much easier than before.

BIS Publishes New "Best Practices" for Exporters
The U.S. Department of Commerce's Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) recently released a new set of best practices that are aimed at helping exporters, re-exporters and freight forwarders guard against the diversion of dual use items shipped to a transshipment hub. While transshipments are a growing part of international trade and offer many benefits, they can be used illegally to either disguise the final destination or divert trade to unauthorized end users.
The new set of best practices encourages exporters to maintain strong internal compliance strategies, conduct focused outreach, and continuously raise awareness of export control regulations and obligations.
The following is a summary of the best practices published by BIS:
- Companies should pay attention to the Red Flag Indicators on the BIS website.
- Companies should seek to utilize Trade Facilitators that administer sound export management and compliance practices.
- Companies should "know" their foreign customers – by obtaining detailed information to measure the risk of diversion.
- Companies should avoid routed transactions when exporting and facilitating the movement of dual-use items.
- When the Destination Control Statement (DCS) is required, companies should provide the appropriate Export Control Classification Number (ECCN) and the final destination where the item(s) are intended to be used.
- Companies should provide the ECCN or the EAR99 classification to freight forwards, and should report this information in AES.
- Companies should use information technology to the maximum extent feasible to augment "know your customer" and other due-diligence measures.

Encouraged Bilateral Trade for Small to Mid-sized U.S.Companies to India
According to American Shipper magazine, both the U.S. and Indian government has announced an incentive to encourage small to mid-sized companies to trade bilaterally between the two countries.
"There is almost limitless potential for growth in trade between our two countries, and that can contribute to economic recovery and job creation in the United States and continued economic growth in India," Ron Kirk, U.S. Trade Representative said in a statement.
In October 2009, Mr. Kirk and Anand Sharma, Indian Minister of Commerce and Industry met at the Trade Policy Forum meeting to create the necessary framework to support small to mid-sized companies and encourage trade. This week the two representatives will met again to host an advisory meeting of American and Indian trade experts to enhance their efforts for this new program.
"We can realize that potential by working together toward the goals set forth in the framework agreement, such as developing and enforcing policies that encourage technological innovation; increasing agriculture, services, and industrial goods; and increasing investment flows," Ron Kirk added.
House Votes Extends Trade Programs
On Monday, the House voted to extend two trade programs for one more year, according to the Journal of Commerce. The General System of Preferences and the Andean Trade Preference Act will expire December 31st and have been enacted for several years.
The General System of Preferences allows developing nations to export selected goods to the United States duty-free and the Andean Trade Preference Act gives similar benefits for exporters in Ecuador, Colombia, and Peru in exchange for cooperation in counter-narcotics efforts.
"As Congress and the administration increasingly shift their attention to job creation, we encourage them to remember the important role trade can play in boosting the U.S. economy through exports," said Chuck Dittrich, vice president for regional trade initiatives.
Extending the programs for one more year will give the U.S. government opportunity to analyze all preference programs available.

Small Business Administration Supports Efforts For More Attention to Small Business Exports
According to the U.S. Chamber of Commerce Web site, it and the Small Business Administration are calling on the U.S. government to stimulate the economy and create jobs by increasing resources available to small and medium-sized businesses that are interested in engaging in international trade.
In January, the Chamber presented the government with a 14-point International Engagement plan, which included a recommendation to double the $335 million appropriated for export assistance to small and medium-size companies.
"These steps will help address the continuing struggle of small businesses to get the loans they need to start up and grow," Small Business Administrator Susan Mills said. "There's no reason we can't meet that demand and help small business owners create more jobs."

Management Dynamics Releases Trade Wizards 10.0 Web-based Research Tool
Improves Compliance with International Trade Regulations and Advisories
EAST RUTHERFORD, NJ, November 18, 2009 — Management Dynamics, a leading provider of Global Trade Management solutions, today announced the release of Trade Wizards 10.0, a Web-based portal to trade content from 122 countries that facilitates the research of complex trade questions. The new release makes it easier for companies to classify products, calculate landed costs and perform document determination at the Harmonized Schedule (HS) level. In addition, a new user experience allows users to manage their searches and ultimately find information faster.
"Trade Wizards is an invaluable tool for our global trade team and we use it daily to quickly and accurately classify our products, determine applicable import or export controls, or to answer a question from the business on total landed cost," said Glenda Welch, Director of Corporate Logistics and Transportation, Belkin International. "The latest version of Trade Wizards is much easier to use, allowing us to conduct our research more efficiently and to fully tap into Management Dynamics' trade content library including the new HS-based document templates."
Management Dynamics' Trade Wizards 10.0 enables the user to make quick, interactive queries using a standard Web browser to calculate landed cost, screen for restricted trade parties, search for HS and Export Control Number (ECN) classifications, identify applicable regulatory controls, and determine trade documents. Management Dynamics maintains the trade content needed to answers these questions for 122 countries or approximately 99 percent of the world market. What used to require many hours to manually research trade rules and regulations can be achieved in minutes using Trade Wizards 10.0.
New key features available on Trade Wizards 10.0 include:
- New Classification Workflow – Perform complex searches that include the tariff number and either a legal or common term to quickly find relevant classifications. Also, searches may be defined with complete Boolean logic and search results are displayed in a tree format to simplify the navigation to a classification.
- Landed Cost Calculator Scenarios – Build landed cost scenarios with multiple origin countries to quickly identify the minimum landed costs with respect to product invoice, duty, VAT, excise, other governmental charges, transportation and insurance.
- Restricted Party Screening – Screen with an improved screening engine and access to Management Dynamics' coverage of 94 restricted party lists offering the highest level of compliance with the lowest rate of false positives.
- Document Determination – Determine the documents required for exporting and importing based on country of export, country of import, and HS number. Results returned include hundreds of documents required for exports, imports, preferential agreements and product specific documents based on the HS number provided.
Trade Wizards 10.0 functionality is available in a highly intuitive user experience with online help that can be used immediately with no user training.
"As businesses continue to globalize at a fast pace, it is important for supply chain teams to have the resources they need to keep up with the ever-changing trade regulations and supporting content," said Nathan Pieri, SVP Marketing & Product Management, Management Dynamics, Inc. "The latest Trade Wizards 10.0 release takes a big step forward on usability and ultimately makes it easier for users to accurately answer their toughest trade questions."
U.K. Sees Exports Rise and Recession Ending
U.K. Trade Minister claims trade is almost back to normal as exports are increasing, says the Wall Street Journal. The Office for National Statistics stated that the trade deficit widened to an eight-month high in September as a 3.9% rise in exports.
"Trade is gradually getting back to normal. The statistics from the U.K. reflect that," Marvyn Davies, U.K. Trade Minister said. "More and more companies are exporting their way out of recession."
The primary goal for the government is to supply the country's nearly five million smaller businesses with the ability to compete in exports markets. He states that the U.K. has some of the world's leading large exporters, but lacks the large spread of mid-sized exporters that a country like Germany has. To do this, Davies plans to look into expanding the role of the state-owned credit agency and to turn to other countries to learn how it manages its small to mid-sized exporters.
A great way for exporters to stay competitive and export with the big dogs, is to integrate a solution, like Management Dynamics' Export On-Demand. The solution helps small to mid-sized exporters establish an Export Management System, automate many aspects of compliance and demonstrate reasonable care. Implementing this solution will help avoid potential fines and preserve export privileges.

New European Trade Measure Not Caused by Protectionism
The New York Times reports that European exporters has been confronted with more than 223 new and restrictive trade measures since the beginning of the trade crisis last year, but has avoided protectionism. A new report out last Friday introduces the new trade measures issues by EU Commission and its trading partners.
"Proliferation of the kind of beggar-thy-neighbor protectionist policies of the 1930s has been prevented," adds the document, which was reviewed by the International Herald Tribune. "The current multilaterally based world trade system seems to have passed one of the most serious stress tests in its entire history."
The report concludes that the 18 percent decrease in trade since 2008 is due to financial crisis rather than protectionism.

My dream dress This is the dress I've been picturing since I was a little girl. I was only planning on spending like 500 but once I saw and tried on this dress there was no other dress this was it it's light beautiful and makes me feel like a princess and I also have quite a few tattoos and the dress doesn't get taken over by them at all I highly recommend this dress I'm also 5'4 115 32DD and this dress just does wonders for me November 26, 2011
Amazing I went in to get colors for the bridesmaid dresses, and saw another dress that I liked. I tried on the other but it was not me. They had this dress in the front of the store and as a joke I tried it on, and it was the one. My mom starting crying and when my future mother in law saw it she loved it too. At a size 20 I thought I would never find a dress that would give me a waist and this one does, and it makes me look amazing. For anyone who can't find their dress, look at this one it just might be the one. November 11, 2011
My dream dress I always said I wanted to look like a cupcake and well after today I officially will! This was the first dress I put on and I swear I didn't want to take it off. I paired it with a plum sash because my wedding colors are plum and black. I LOVE THIS DRESS and I can't wait to wear it!! :) November 11, 2011
Like a fairytale I had no intention what so ever to purchase such a full dress. I swore I did not want to look like a cupcake. However, once I put this dress on I fell in love. Its light as a feather and amazingly flattering. I would recommend this dress to anyone. I ended up with the champagne/white and it is wonderful. November 2, 2011

Congratulations Disney's Frozen: winner at the 86th Annual Academy Awards!
Congratulations Frozen!
these gifs sum up my views on tvd down to a tee
Do you remember the Dollhouse we found in the dumpster behind our house when we were little? Dad would be drunk, mom talking to the silverware. We'd go upstairs, lock the door and play with it, and you said: "We're okay. Just pretend. Pretend this is our house. This is where we'll always be safe."
I believed you. And then you went away. I don't want to lose you again. I can't.
1x10 // 3x13
I'll face camera no matter what it takes.
