Tony Tyler's address to the 1000 delegates from industry and media who gathered in Miami 7-9 June for IATA's 71st AGM
Fraudulent online travel and flight booking agencies operate internationally. These websites can appear highly professional and some may display IATA's accredited agency logo to make their webpages appear more legitimate. Because this is a growing concern, IATA suggests using only verified agencies.
Agencies will provide their IATA code if asked. This can be verified online via the Check a Code website, or through the IATA Customer Portal. Be cautious of any agent whose website states that they accept credit cards for payment, but later requests payment via wire transfer. This could be an attempt to obtain credit card information in addition to a wire transfer payment - a wire transfer payment cannot be disputed later.
Some online agencies have false statements on their websites claiming to be IATA accredited, protected or bonded, or claiming that they hold membership with IATA. Be aware that when a travel, cargo or service agency makes reference to IATA on their home page, it does not necessarily mean that they are IATA accredited.
Should you wish to use the services of an agent claiming IATA affiliation, always request their IATA code

text: I thank everyone on the EMacro team. With all your help, I have not recieved one outside bug report. To date, there is only one bug report on the SourceForge web, and that was for a beta release, and something that had already been fixed. I'm sure as EMacro becomes more popular, this will change. There is no rest for the wicked. As soon as EMacro went golden, Vishy released tips.html, which is checked into CVS, so you can see where our web, and online docs are headed. Below is a list of items for the team to consider. I upgraded John, my co-worker's version of EMacro to 2.0.6 release. The biggest problem is that I had to hack up html-helper-mode, in order to get it to byte-compile and load on my machine. I'll have to figure out what happened, but I suspect the problem is more html-helper-mode than it is EMacro. However, I did get some nice usability critiques. 1) home.el is the scratchpad for user customizations. I had thought of calling it "user.el". Maybe one of you can come up with a catchier name- "customize-me.el"? I have a skeleton there, to make it easy to set up home.el for your emacs use anywhere (should you move from emacs to xemacs or w32 to linux). However, I am thinking of ripping out all that skeleton code, so that home.el is simple, and people will start using it. 2) John suggested that EMacro go into a subdirectory of ~/emacs, for cleaner organization 3) John suggested further, that I bundle all supported libraries with EMacro. While this is convenient, and pretested, this can lead to much disk space and download bloat, with files you are not likely to use, such as delphi.el and modula3.el. However, if I tested html-helper-mode on my machine, then presumably, you can plug it in, and use it on your machine. Then there are binary add-ons, such as ispell and Internet Explorer(tm). I don't see including them as worth while. 4) John also suggested that we use condition-case() [the elisp equivalent of exception handling] to try catching failed packages, and automatically turn them off in ?cache.el. So, for example, cache-locate-library() detects html-helper-mode in load-path, so (defconst cache-html-helper-mode t) is set in ~/emacs/xcache.el. However, I would later add code, that catches this problem, and appends (setq cache-html-helper-mode nil) to xcache.el. Frankly, I suspect that this will lead to much code bloat, and therefore, increased maintenance. And then there is the future of EMacro: 5) I hope to internationalize EMacro. I have already included files to support European dates and phone numbers and Chinese & Japanese. Much of this may fall outside the scope of EMacro. However, I could set all prompts and EMacro menus in a language file, in the i18n directory (I may need to rename files there). Is there something more? 6) I'll be rolling in Jan's C++ code into ~/emacs/programmer/e-c.el 7) Jan has written e-options.el, which lets you turn things on and off from the menu. This works nicely for dynamic items that have either a 'nil or 't state. However, some items are more static in nature, such as "disable loading e-perl.el for faster startup", which would not have any effect, until you restart Emacs. The issue here, is that the user may end up expecting that everything will be invoked, as soon as they exit the menu. I could invoke prompts that do nothing, with something like: "Changes take effect when you restart Emacs (hit enter)" 8) I'm sure you can add some creative ideas, including now that EMacro invokes a browser from the help menu, we can exploit hooks to our SourceForge web. 9) The EMacro website is pretty sad, but Vishy is doing a good job of starting to clean up the html. I hope we can figure out how to work on the SourceForge site; it does allow us to install CGIs, so I'm open to ideas here, too. Again, thanks, and I hope you are enjoying EMacro as much as I am. -- EMacro remakes Emacs http://www.sourceforge.net/projects/emacro/

Lundqvist to start both Blue Jackets games
Having made it through Chicago traffic to O'Hare for the flight to Columbus, your intrepid reporter finds himself with about 10 minutes before boarding.
In other words, just the facts Ma'am, just the facts.
The Rangers practiced today at the United Center, showing the same lines and defense pairs as in their season-opening 3-2 win over the Blackhawks on Wednesday night. Coach Alain Vigneault confirmed he does not anticipate making any lineup changes for Friday night's game against the Blue Jackets, the start of a back-to-back, home-and-home series.
Vigneault confirmed that Henrik Lundqvist, who made 32 saves against the Blackhawks, would start on Friday night. Vigneault would not confirm that Lundqvist would start Saturday's home opener, until he gave the, "If I were a betting man…" line. So, yes, the plan is for Lundqvist to start both games, meaning he'll have started all three in four nights to start the season. Lundqvist said that is partly because it will be good for him to get into a rhythm quickly, plus, there was a week between the preseason finale and the season opener. Backup Antti Raanta could get Tuesday's home game against the Jets.
Practice started with the Rangers drilling on line changes and dumping the puck into the zone. It was practiced both with the short change (first and third period) to the bench and the long change that happens in the second period as well as overtime.
Also of note today, Vigneault, asked about the opening night performance of the Rick Nash-Derick Brassard-Mats Zuccarello line couched his answer by saying he always has high expectations for that trio because he considers them all elite players. However, Vigneault did add, without hesitation, that he's been told by the players that they are sometimes not the quickest starters. Vigneault's advice is to "try harder," and that might make them quick starters.
Nash acknowledged that "no question," that line has to be better on Friday night.
OK, packing up and boarding. No morning skate for the Rangers before Friday's game since they practiced today.

I would not like to be a pirate – apart from being illegal, the chances of meeting a violent end are too great– but I do like the swashbuckling aspects.
The sight of the Jolly Roger (the pirate skull and crossbones) being raised is pretty exciting – it is a part of pirate lore which has been adapted by submariners.

My first construction kit was of a galleon with a solid balsa wood hull and colourful cardboard cabins and sails.
All the later ones were plastic. I have fond memories of making a big model of HMS Hood with The Searchers on the radio in the background singing 'Ain't Gonna Kiss Ya'. Strange how music can imprint pictures in the brain.
My favourite aircraft construction kit was a Swordfish – I marvelled how this hugely-successful biplane was put together, with a lethal torpedo slung beneath its fuselage.
Among the measures used by Britain to protect beleaguered convoys in the Second World War was a unique type of ship which catapulted fighter aircraft into action. Read more…
Through the lens
31 January 2011 by Stephen
The Victorian child's brass telescope attracted my eye in the cluttered window of the old junk shop in Mount Pleasant, Liverpool. After some cajoling, it was mine and I was soon down at the river scrutinising the great ships coming and going from the docks.
I still have the little telescope bought all those years ago and continue to be fascinated by the hidden worlds revealed by lenses.
The invention of the telescope helped transform safety at sea as mariners could now see distant shorelines and other vessels not easily visible to the human eye. Read more…
Aircraft threat

I am an amateur cartoonist and caricaturist – all right, a doodler – who's also very interested in the development of this art form since it emerged about the time of the English Civil War.
The Second World War inspired some classic newspaper and magazine drawings which kept up morale and were sometimes also used on propaganda posters and leaflets.
This cartoon (pictured) is not particularly well drawn but it captures perfectly the mood of the time and one man's brave determination to have a go.
Allied merchant shipping carrying vital supplies used the convoy system in an attempt to protect itself from combined U-boat submarine and air attacks during the war. Read more…
Lusitania losses
29 November 2010 by Stephen
I find the words on the napkin, produced to commemorate one of the worst maritime disasters of the First World War, very moving.
To many people at the time the loss of the Lusitania came to symbolise Liverpool's suffering, as she was the city's favourite passenger liner.
The spectacular coloured glass war memorial at one of my local churches, St James's in West Derby, uniquely uses an image of the doomed ship to silently express that grief. Read more…
War imports
25 October 2010 by Stephen
I have many memories of Liverpool's docklands when they were labour-intensive before the widespread use of containers.
Once I was flung off my motorcycle when the wheels got caught in the dock railway lines. The windscreen and front mudguard were shattered.
As I wheeled my machine past the police officer he joked: "You crunched!" (This was a catch phrase from a crisps advert of the time, 1968.)
Some 25 years earlier the Port of Liverpool fought a daily battle of survival bringing in vital supplies. Read more…

To me he looks hardly more than a boy but this chilling photograph clearly demonstrates the glorifying of war with little thought for the victims.
The man in the picture with German dictator Adolf Hitler is 31-year-old Gunther Prien, brilliant U-boat submarine commander. He is being awarded a medal for sinking a British battleship with huge loss of life including more than 100 boy sailors.The wreck lies upside down in just 100 feet of water – HMS Royal Oak, sunk with the loss of 833 lives.

Justicia justice
31 August 2010 by Stephen
I came across this story while reading about the conflict at sea during the First World War and was filled with gloom.
This liner seemed to have been earmarked for destruction from the start and was sunk even when under the protection of warships. Her brief life had been blighted by the misfortunes of other great ships.
The 32,234-ton Justicia was built for the Dutch Holland America Line at Belfast's famous Harland & Wolff shipyard and launched just weeks before war broke out. Read more…

Qatar plans to scrap its 'visa-on-arrival' scheme – and there are fears other GCC countries could impose similar restrictions on Western travelers.
April 13, 2010 5:21 by kippreport
From May 1, Qatar will scrap its visa-on-arrival scheme, under which citizens of certain countries are permitted to enter the country without arranging documents prior to traveling.
This means that tourists and business people from 33 countries – including the US and the UK – will be obliged to submit bank statements and other documents in order to obtain entry to Qatar. This also affects expats who have residency in other GCC countries.
The move hasn't gone down too well. Zawya Dow Jones, for example, quotes bankers as saying the move could curtail Qatar's efforts to attract foreign investment.
The change in policy is attributed to diplomatic and security concerns, especially following the murder of Hamas member Mahmoud Al Mabhouh in neighboring Dubai. The assassination was almost certainly the work of Israel's spy agency Mossad, whose agents allegedly travelled to Dubai on false passports.
This has prompted speculation that Gulf countries could tighten restrictions on entry, and that Qatar will be the first of many GCC states to do so.
Shortly after the suspected Mossad hit, the UAE foreign ministry said via the official news agency WAM that "the UAE is deeply concerned by the fact that passports of close allies, whose nationals currently enjoy preferential visa waivers, were illegally used to commit this crime".
This was interpreted by some as a sign that the UAE will tighten its entry policies for EU citizens. Like Qatar, the UAE currently grants tourist visas upon arrival to citizens of 33 countries, including the UK, Ireland, France, Germany and Australia – the five nations allegedly chosen by Mossad in its passport forgeries.
Even before the Mossad assassination, steps to tighten controls at UAE borders were already underway – albeit under legislation that does not affect citizens of the 33 countries mentioned above. New rules mean that some visitors to the UAE have to wait one month before reentering the Emirates, in a move that makes tourist daytrips to neighboring countries like Oman impossible.
A report in the Irish Times in February suggested that the UAE may indeed be considering a review of its entry rules. "In a telephone conversation with [Ireland's] Minister for Foreign Affairs Micheál Martin last Friday, [UAE foreign minister] Sheikh Abdullah highlighted the possible consequences of the breach of passport security. He told Mr Martin there was increasing pressure within the UAE to impose tighter visa conditions on EU visitors," said the newspaper.
But that was in February – and there has been no tightening of the law since then. But will there be? Saudi Arabia already has notoriously strict visa rules for expats; is it only a matter of time before the UAE, Bahrain, Oman and Kuwait follow Qatar and abolish 'visas on arrival'?
POLL: Do you think Gulf countries will stop issuing 'visas on arrival' to visitors from Western countries?

Cambridge archaeologist Sarah Weston makes an unusual discovery in the ancient Ethiopian mountain kingdom of Aksuma sealed tomb with inscriptions in an obscure dialect. Along with her colleague, American anthropologist Daniel Madigan, she tries to identify the entombed man and translate the inscriptions. Tracking down clues in Addis Ababa and the monasteries of Lalibela, Sarah and Daniel uncover a codex in the subterranean library revealing the secret of the tomba set of prophecies about Earth's final hours, written by a man hailed by Ethiopian mystics as Coptic Christianity's 10th saint. Faced with violent opposition and left for dead in the heart of the Simien Mountains, Sarah and Daniel survive to journey to Paris, where they're given a 14th-century letter describing the catastrophic events that will lead to the planet's demise. Connecting the two discoveries, Sarah faces a deadly conspiracy to keep the secret buried in order to promote technological advances presently leading toward the prophesied end of the Earth.

Chapter OneThe camel trod tentatively on a patch of cracked earth. The upper crust shattered underfoot the heavily laden beast like unfired pottery broken into a thousand pieces. The camel driver, a gaunt man shrouded in indigo gauze from head to bare feet, made an urgent clicking sound and hit the animal on its hindquarters with a palm frond whip. The camel took two quick steps in reaction to the insult, then halted, groaning its displeasure. Despite repeated calls from its driver, it was going no farther and that was that.
The man peeled back his headdress to uncover his face. His skin was the color of antelope hide, with deep grooves carved into his forehead and cheek hollows. The sun had taken its toll on him over the fifty years he had walked the desert. He looked like an emaciated octogenarian, tired and beaten down by life, but his eyes, pools of liquid onyx, shone with a spirit full of vigor and wisdom, the kind needed to guide a tribe of nomads through this unforgiving country. He squinted to the sky to confirm the position of the sun. It was as he thought: directly overhead. He appraised the desert around him. All that he surveyed was arid and parched. Parched like the camels and his fellow riders. The midday sun scorched without remorse, and there was no salvation—no water, no shade—in sight.
With one hand, he drew circles in the air to summon the other men. "We will stop here," he told them when they'd gathered round. "The animals are tired. They must have water."
"But, Shaykh, there is no water," said one of the younger men, his narrow eyes full of doubt. "There hasn't been water in many moons." The leader put his hand on the young man's shoulder. "Then we shall find some, Abu. The desert is our mother. She always provides."
The young man did not talk back to his elder. It was the Bedouin way: trust and obey. The elders had proven themselves as men of great character and honor and, as such, commanded the respect of the goums. Hairan was chief of the tribe, the Bedouins' moral and spiritual leader.
The others stood by the old chief, waiting for direction. Hairan instructed them to make camp and start a fire. Then he summoned the old woman Taneva and asked her to gather some of the womenfolk and walk toward the east in search of water.
Taneva kneeled before the chief in reverence, shrinking into her black woolen robes, the standard dress of Bedouin widows. She was the eldest woman in the tribe and therefore the one who had witnessed the most, including the birth of two generations. Nothing remained of her youth but dignity. Her eyes, ringed in black kohl, smoldered like a half-spent fire. Her receding brown lips were taut with determination. The strands of hair escaping her black veil framed her face like threads of silver tinsel.
Hairan motioned to her to rise and stand as his equal. "There was rain in the east two days ago." He pointed to a pair of high sand dunes. "Behind those dunes is a low valley. Look for the water there."
Taneva bowed and backed away.
Three women accompanied Taneva eastward, the sand hot as a simmering cauldron beneath their bare feet. Balancing earthen jars on their heads, they did not complain but walked on, as their people had done for centuries before them.
For half an hour they endured the discomfort, and they were rewarded for it. Just as Hairan had predicted, a pool of water was inside a hollow in the sand. It wasn't much-barely enough to last the day—and it swarmed with insects. But tomorrow was a new day, and it would bring as much hope as any other. The women kneeled to collect what little water there was, straining it through the gauze of their head veils to purify it.
Driven by a premonition that there was more to find, Taneva left the others and walked toward another depression in the sand. As she came to the edge of the hollow, her gaze fell upon a thing she had never before encountered. She squinted to get a clearer look.
In the sand was a bulge.
She hurried down, raising great plumes of dust with her bare feet. Something was there, indeed. Something unnatural.
She approached the mass and with a desert woman's sense of duty began brushing the sand aside to reveal what lay beneath. Her hand swept over a coarse snarl like the heap of her woolen embroidery threads after a sandstorm. She jerked her hand away, her eyes wide and mouth trembling with dread. Instinctively she looked around for help, but no one was near. With a deep breath, she returned to her task. The women of the desert, like the men, did not turn away from what was put on their path. It was their fate. To walk away would be to defy the powers, which would lead to certain ruin.
Taneva's hand came upon something hard, a protrusion, like bone. With both hands, she made a groove in the sand and dug with new resolve. The head revealed itself first. The eyes were deep in their sockets, the skin around them purple from impact or pain. The hair was fair of color and short, so crusted with sand it resembled the fleece of a long-dead sheep.
Taneva pushed the rest of the sand aside to uncover the naked body of a man, curled in the fetal position and pale as death. She pressed both hands to her mouth to contain a shriek. Falling to her knees next to the body, she chanted the song of the dying as an offering for the soul of the victim.
That night, Hairan tended to the stranger inside his own tent. By all accounts, the man should have been dead. By some miracle, he wasn't. Hairan himself doubted he would live, for his breathing was shallow, his body battered, and his unconscious state closer to death than slumber. But as a Bedouin, a shaykh, and a medicine man, he was bound to care for the stranger until he had either recovered or given up the fight.
Hairan had put the man on his own mat and covered him with all of his woolen blankets to reverse his plummeting temperature. The stranger's skin was cold and dry to the touch, as if life was slowly departing. The chief had never seen a man with skin the hue of bleached bone or hair the color of the sun. It did not matter. Whoever the stranger was and wherever he had come from, they were the same, just as man and beast and grain of desert sand were the same.
With the vacillating flame of an oil lamp as his sole guidance, the old man placed some herbs on a stone and rolled them between his fingers. He picked up a pinch and put it to his nose. "Not enough," he muttered and continued crushing until the healing oils of the leaves were released.
When he was satisfied with the consistency and aroma of the paste, he rubbed a handful on the stranger's cheeks, forehead, and lips and another on his chest. The remaining pulp he placed inside the man's hands, closing them in loose fists.
Hairan lifted his own hands to the sky in deference to the powers. "I am a simple man who knows nothing," he chanted softly. "Whatever wisdom has been granted me I gladly share with my pale brother. But he is not mine to save. His fate is known only by the Great Spirit, the keeper of all life."
He curled up on the ground next to the stranger. That would be his bed tonight, cold and inhospitable as it was. Discomfort was not appalling to the Bedouin. It was as much a part of existence in the desert as the beating sun or a camel's foul breath or the endless expanse of dunes gilded by the last streaks of daylight.
Hairan stared at the man who lay battling for his earthly life. With his sharp-angled nose, pale pink lips, long fingers and limbs, and unpigmented hide, he was neither Bedouin nor Arab, nor Jew for that matter.
Taneva walked in with a glass of warm goat's milk. "Will he live?"
The chief shook his head. "Of this I cannot be certain."
"Is he one of those savages from the East, Shaykh?"
"Perhaps. Or perhaps he is from the other side of the Red Sea, a trader. There is no need to ask such questions. All things will be revealed if it is time and if we are ready."
"You are a wise man, Hairan. A generous man."
"I do only what is required of me. We are all one, and we live to serve each other."
She threw her own blanket on Hairan and stroked his hair tenderly in a rare display of affection. Before the other inhabitants of the goums, he was the shaykh and she an old woman. Only when they were alone was she his mother. "Your father would be proud. Good night, my son."
The stranger opened his eyes on the morning of the seventh day. The veil of unconsciousness still weighed heavily on his eyelids, and his body ached so much he could do no more than lie still.
He surveyed his surroundings in the stupor of long slumber, like a bear awakened from hibernation. The walls were thick burlap, the roof held up by a tree trunk in the center of the room. There was no floor. He lay on blankets stretched out on sand. In the far corner was a small bench carved from wood holding some stone implements. At his bedside were an earthen pot, blackened from fire, and a pile of filthy gauze. His blankets were woolen and so heavy he did not have the strength to lift them, but they were beautiful, obviously woven by an artist's hands, with images of stars and scorpions and all-seeing eyes in indigo, saffron, and crimson.
Though he tried to sort out what was happening, his brain was not processing it. The images were unfamiliar. He knew he was inside a tent, but whose, where? Was he in danger? And how had he gotten here? His head ached as he tried to recall the circumstances that had brought him to this place. He could not. He was looking around in frustration, desperate for a clue to spark his memory, when a man ducked in.
The man nodded at him but said nothing. A tight smile crossed his weathered lips, and his face contorted to reveal a network of furrows.
"Who are you?" he croaked in English. "What is this place? Why am I here?"
The chief said something in an incomprehensible language, dipped gauze in liquid, and wiped his brow.
He started to pull away but lacked the strength to put up a fight.
The chief handed him a small clay pot, pointed to his own lips, and spoke again.
Still bewildered, he turned his head away. "Leave me be, old man. Go tend to your goats or something."
The chief slipped out of the tent in silence.
With eyes closed, he tried to summon a memory. Random images raced through his mind, and it was impossible to make sense of them. He saw faces—faces he did not recognize, their features erased by memory's cruel hand. Metallic voices banged around his head, mocking him with their sinister pitch. There was darkness, then a bright orange light, amorphous and violent, like fire. The image chilled his blood. A woman's voice emerged from behind the darkness. He could not see her face, but her voice was calm and comforting. She spoke a single word: Gabriel.
He knew with all certainty that the name was his own, but his memory cheated him of all else. No amount of effort could muster the recollection of who Gabriel was and what he had been.

iTunes Extras Preview added to Apple TV
Apple has recently added iTunes Extras Preview to Apple TV. Following the addition of new iTunes Extras to iTunes Store HD movie downloads last month, the new Preview feature allows users to see the iTunes Extras menus for a movie without having to buy it. A badge in the upper right corner of the screen lets users know that they can gain the "full experience" of iTunes Extras by making an HD purchase. Notably, the feature is listed as "Preview iTunes Extras" on current-generation Apple TVs, and "iTunes Extras Preview" on units running the latest beta release of Apple TV software. The feature does not yet appear to be available in the Mac or PC version of the iTunes Store.

The epic story of Lost twists, turns and time-shifts in its outstanding fifth season. Packed with hours of never-before-seen bonus features and exploding off the screen with a pristine picture and theater-quality sound, LOST is an astonishing new experience on Blu-ray High Definition.
When destiny calls, the Oceanic 6 find their way back to the island. Discover what forced them to return, and find out the fate of all those who were left behind.
Explore innovative new bonus features, including Lost University, an immersive collegiate experience powered by BD-Live where you can interactively examine the themes, stories and secrets of LOST. The answers to some of the series' most pressing questions are revealed in this spectacular 5-disc Blu-ray Hi-Def collection. You'd be crazy not to watch, proclaims Matt Roush of TV Guide
Since Lost made its debut as a cult phenomenon in 2004, certain things seemed inconceivable. In its fourth year, some of those things, like a rescue, came to pass. The season ended with Locke (Terry O'Quinn) attempting to persuade the Oceanic Six to return, but he dies before that can happen--or so it appears--and where Jack (Matthew Fox) used to lead, Ben (Emmy nominee Michael Emerson) now takes the reins and convinces the survivors to fulfill Locke's wish.
As producers Damon Lindelof and Carlton Cuse state in their commentary on the fifth-season premiere, "We're doing time travel this year," and the pile-up of flashbacks and flash-forwards will make even the most dedicated fan dizzy. Ben, Jack, Hurley (Jorge Garcia), Sayid (Naveen Andrews), Sun (Yunjin Kim), and Kate (Evangeline Lilly) arrive to find that Sawyer (Josh Holloway) and Juliet (Elizabeth Mitchell) have been part of the Dharma Initiative for three years. The writers also clarify the roles that Richard (Nestor Carbonell) and Daniel (Jeremy Davies) play in the island's master plan, setting the stage for the prophecies of Daniel's mother, Eloise Hawking (Fionnula Flanagan), to play a bigger part in the sixth and final season.
Dozens of other players flit in and out, some never to return. A few, such as Jin (Daniel Dae Kim), live again in the past. Lost could've wrapped things up in five years, as The Wire did, but the show continues to excite and surprise. As Lindelof and Cuse admit in the commentary, there's a "fine line between confusion and mystery," adding, "it makes more sense if you're drunk." Other extras include deleted scenes, featurettes, a "lost" episode of Mysteries of the Universe, and commentary from writers Edward Kitsis and Adam Horowitz on "He's Our You," a reference to Sayid, who tries to change the future by changing the past. --Kathleen C. FennessySee all Editorial Reviews

I rearranged part of my trip so I could stay an extra night at this hotel...it was such a great experience. Konstatin, at the front desk, was a true asset to that hotel. When I walked into the hotel for my second night stay, he knew me by name and had a room ready promptly. The breakfast was far more that I expected. It was delicious and fresh. I completely recommend this hotel.

A bundle of joy of a fluffy amber,
Your hand is warm against my face,
In your arms you confuse me and make me tamper.
Without you Id fall, plume to the ground,

When he was away I was lost not to be found,
You open my eyes brought me to life, make me see the new dawn.
Your love is always true,

Your happy nature your soft smile, you can never be blue,
Yet I can not be with you because of him, its a crime.
So just for this moment take me away,

You didn't love me, in that way, you never spared a second glance.

Your mind was his, you were gone.

The group of them gathered around the front of the building. All of them were tall and looked terrifyingly powerful. They made an impressive bunch; none of them looked like high school students at all. It seemed that they were somehow separated from the many other cliques of the high school. They stood out, casually, from the other groups, especially the one who seemed a bit apart from even his own group.
He was tall like the rest of them and had shaggy, long for a boy- hair. He was leaning on a motorcycle. His face held a blank look; it looked as if it hadnt smiled in ages, his eyes unreadable. The shadows thrown over his face made his face look gaunt and serious.

A shadow swooped swiftly above the still, dark land below and perched on a steeple of an abandoned and dilapidated castle on the cliff. The face of the full moon peeked from behind a thick cloud lighting the world beneath. The shadow is shown in full relief: a girl of around fifteen peering down at the small town below. Silver vest and pants cover her as well as a thick frayed black scarf around her neck. Black boots shield her small feet and her silver hair blew gently in the night breeze as her vivid green eyes scan the silent town. A pure silver fox is perched on her pale shoulder; the only color it had was its vivid green eyes and the emerald bow around its neck. The striking detail is the immense scythe clutched lightly in her hand, the blade glinting slightly from the light of the moon. A silver disc with a symbol of a snowdrop is hung on a thin chain at the head of the scythe and clinked softly with every movement.
The fox stretched, after what seemed like ages, an

The next time I opened my eyes the curtains were open, revealing a black starry night sky, the moon being the only source of light. I stretched my body, stiff from sleep. I sat up, only to be pushed back against the pillow. I gasped, surprised by the aggression on Edwards transcendent face, but he smiled. He pushed the hair away from my face, his butterscotch eyes boring into mine, and leaned in so close to my face I could smell his delicious breath. I smiled up at his face, pressing my hand against his cold cheek.
The door blew open at that moment and Alice danced into the room, leaving Jasper to stand uncomfortably in the doorway, his arms crossed. Alice tossed herself onto the bed, Edward sighing reluctantly and pulled away, my hand dropping from his perfect face. The corners of his mouth pulled down as I sighed loudly, throwing myself back against the pillows.

Ok Ladies I need some help. I am looking for cute 1 liner quilt/ craft jokes for a game that I am playing with my quilt guild. I need 30 jokes. These jokes need to be somewhat short and have a response for example...
Why did the quilter stop telling jokes?
She ran out of good material
Please help!!!!!!!!!!
I will take anything that has to do with cutting or needles or anything crafty as well.

I was also fretting about a coming weekend quilting retreat that I am not ready for, etc. etc. Then I flipped over the daily calendar page on my desk. There was a photo of a kitten sitting in a basket of roses, and I thought, "humph"!…Continue
