Product Description
Product Description
Staedtler triplus fineliners are high quality fineliners with superfine, metal-clad tips. The pens have an ergonomic triangular barrel for relaxed and easy writing. The water-based ink washes out of most textiles. The pens are airplane-safe and the automatic pressure equalisation prevents the pens from leaking on board aircraft.
The pens come supplied in the practical stand-up Staedtler box. With the Staedtler box you simply open, stand it up and start writing. The Staedtler box is so practical and just as ecologically efficient: Without the need for additional external packaging, it serves as a practical storage box and clever pen holder at the same time. The ink is dry safe which means that the pens can be left uncapped for days without drying up (Test ISO 554). The pack contains 20 vibrant colours with superfine line width of 0.3 mm.

There is no difference between the JB sets and the original ones, apart from the promotional packaging.
The best thing for me about Staedtler fineliners is that they are waterbased, so they have that precious feature of not bleeding through most colouring books- something I get asked a lot about. You're pretty much safe with these pens unless your book has exceptionally thin paper, and as always testing them on an inconspicuous area is advised before you jump into coloiuring a whole picture. Of course, Miss Basford recommends you use these in her books so you know you're fine as far as her beautiful trilogy is concerned.
The pens come in a large palette of colours, so you're getting lots of variety in one handy box.
The fineliners feature a tiny 0.3mm tip which will get into ANY gap with ease, and has coloured caps and ends for quick selection when colouring. The lids are mostly consistent with the ink colour apart from a few of the pastel ones which are darker than what you'd expect, so be sure to make a chart before you begin.
There are loads of unusual tones in this set, including Lavender, Carmine and French Green, which makes it an invaluable pack to have if you want a selection of mid-tones that you don't usually find in many pen sets.
Staedtler's pen barrels are triangular shaped for an ergonomic grip, meaning they're easier to hold on to than the usual hexagonal shape. The pens are long, narrow and light, sitting nicely in the hand and last AGES. I bought a pack in April and they're still going strong, despite me using them near constantly at one point.Read more ›
Yes, you're right, I probably do need to get out more, but trust me, they are excellent value for money.
1. WHY can't this set be in the type of plastic case you have the 20 packs in?
2. Due to the fine, hard tips, some pens which show a pale colour on the lid, actually colour in dark, e.g. pale lilac lid pen colours in as dark purple.
Apart from that, these have been fantastic for colouring in pictures in my Millie Marotta colouring book, as the 0.3mm tips fit into the intricate patterns. I have attached my first completed picture (go easy I'm a beginner!) The horns and some of the large flowers are coloured with 1mm Staedtler pens, the rest with this pack of fineliners.
My only complaint comes from a friend who also had these pens, and she says that if you press down too hard on them, the nib pushes itself inside the pen, so you can no longer write with it. I haven't had this problem, however.

Robyn Hitchcock in Studio from SXSW - 03/15/2007
Robyn Hitchcock knows no trends. In the mid-'70s, when punk was all the underground rage in England, his band The Soft Boys played psychedelic folk-rock and inspired the likes of R.E.M. and Camper Van Beethoven. Long into his solo career with various backing bands (The Egyptians, The Venus 3), Hitchcock continues to carry psychedelic music's swirling torch. Hitchcock currently pursues a film and art career in addition to his eclectic and ever-expanding discography.
KUT reflects Austin's diverse live music scene: Americana, rock, folk, jazz, and blues.

[Watch] Here's What Happens When Your Side Chick Crashes Your Wedding
It's a scene out of a Tyler Perry movie.
Though Gucci Mane is currently behind bars on a probation violation, it hasn't stopped his partner in rhyme Waka Flocka Flame from promoting their future plans.
According to Waka, the two Atlanta rap stars are planning to release their much-anticipated joint album, Ferrari Boyz, on June 21.
"new mixTape finna drop n 3weeks from now Plus me n Gucci album on june 21" Waka tweeted.
While Gooch is now serving time on a battery charge, for allegedly pushing a woman out of a moving car, Waka seems very optimistic his Brick Sqaud cohort will be home in time for the project's release.
In the meantime, Flocka will continue boosting his profile through the mixtape scene. The rowdy rapper has put out four mixtapes this year. On the flip side, Gucci's latest independent release, The Return of Mr. Zone 6, dropped in March with little fanfare.
A music rep at Warner Bros. Music, Waka's label, declined to confirm the release date of the album.

Worth its weight in gold when the sun dips below the horizon, our Down Sweater Vest keeps its focus simple: core warmth. It traps your hard-earned heat with high-loft, 800-fill-power Traceable Down (800-fill-power goose down from geese traced from parent farm to apparel factory to help ensure the birds that supply it are not force-fed or live-plucked, as certified by NSF, an independent third party) and its minimalist design practically floats-it's so compact that it stuffs into an internal pocket (with a carabiner clip-in loop). The 100% recycled polyester shell with a DWR (durable water repellent) finish provides wind and weather protection, while quilting lines stabilize the down and accentuate the contoured fit. The drawcord hem tightens from inside the zippered handwarmer pockets, and nylon-bound elastic armholes seal in heat.

WASHINGTON (AP) — The Justice Department says it is looking into the shooting death of Trayvon Martin to determine whether federal prosecutors should file criminal civil rights charges now that George Zimmerman has been acquitted in the state case.
The department opened an investigation into Martin's death last year but stepped aside to allow the state prosecution to proceed.
In a statement Sunday, the Justice Department said the criminal section of the civil rights division, the FBI and the U.S. Attorney's office for the Middle District of Florida are continuing to evaluate the evidence generated during the federal probe, in addition to the evidence and testimony from the state trial.
The statement said that, in the government's words, "experienced federal prosecutors will determine whether the evidence reveals a prosecutable violation."
The White House released a statement from President Obama:
"The death of Trayvon Martin was a tragedy. Not just for his family, or for any one community, but for America. I know this case has elicited strong passions. And in the wake of the verdict, I know those passions may be running even higher. But we are a nation of laws, and a jury has spoken. I now ask every American to respect the call for calm reflection from two parents who lost their young son. And as we do, we should ask ourselves if we're doing all we can to widen the circle of compassion and understanding in our own communities. We should ask ourselves if we're doing all we can to stem the tide of gun violence that claims too many lives across this country on a daily basis. We should ask ourselves, as individuals and as a society, how we can prevent future tragedies like this. As citizens, that's a job for all of us. That's the way to honor Trayvon Martin."

Because the Night
A botched liquor store heist leaves three grisly dead. A hero cop is missing. Nobody could see a pattern in these two stray bits of information no one except Detective Sergeant Lloyd Hopkins, a brilliant and disturbed L.A. cop with an obsessive desire to protect the innocent. To him they lead to one horrifying conclusion--a killer is on the loose and preying on his city. From the master of L.A. noir comes this beautiful and brutal tale of a cop and a criminal squared off in a life and death struggle.

We spent Christmas and New Year 2012 at the Club Kantaoui (22.12.12 to 5.1.13) and thoroughly enjoyed our all inclusive stay.
We agree with all the favourable reviews and were pleasantly surprised at the standards at this hotel. Our package included a Gala Dinner - Christmas Eve and New Years Eve Gala Dinners were an unexpected additional treat. Very stylish 8 course meals with belly dancers entertaining us and music and dancing.
• All the staff were friendly and very attentive
• Food and drink was excellent – at dinner we had to ask the waiter to stop topping our wine up! You can buy bottles of water to take to your room (1 dinar = 40p for a 1.5 litre bottle) although water, sparkling water and alcoholic drinks were readily available throughout the day
• Entertainment was fun with occasional shows in the disco and music in the lobby most evenings where the young gentlemen of the Animation Team tried to teach us to dance – thank you for your patience Yosri and friends.
• Free Wi-fi is available in the main lobby which is a non-smoking area
• Flew with Tunisair - excellent service - meals on outgoing and return flights and complimentary soft drinks/beer/wine
We came away from Tunisia feeling that we had a very enjoyable value for money break.
As cat lovers we enjoyed the company of the many cats around the resort. The staff didn't comment when we took food from the restaurants to feed them.
The weather was comfortable – most days sunny from 10am to 4pm. Sun worshippers found sheltered areas around the resort where they could relax and get a tan. Our room overlooked the sea and as we needed to walk outside to get to reception and the restaurants we needed a cardigan or light coat and scarf in the evenings if it was windy.
Christmas is not peak season so the hotel was not fully occupied. We found a mostly mature, friendly, multi-national clientele. Tunisians, Germans, Italians. Children seemed to be well entertained by the Animation Team.
We tipped all the staff – bar staff, dining room waiters, chambermaids, toilet attendants. One dinar is 40p and 1-2 dinars was accepted politely.
We would definitely recommend this hotel.

Product Description
It's the true story of five brothers who fought and died together when their ship, the American cruiser Juneau, was sunk in the South Pacific during World War II. The Fighting Sullivans is something more than a worthy tribute to a pair of small town parents and the five sons they lost when the Juneau blew up in a battle off Guadalcanal on November 13, 1942. It is a heartwarming slice of Americana that will fill in the background of any number of Americans on the fighting front. The audience's awareness of the news in store for the Sullivan family adds considerably to the film's effect. The Fighting Sullivans generates emotion strictly on it's own terms and without bidding for tears. Approx. 112 minutes.

text: Alcon has two great things going for it -- a great return on equity (ROE) and impressive free cash flow. Alcon's ROE is an industry-leading 33.6%, while last year's free cash flow was an impressive $2.93 per share. 2. America Movil S.A.B. (AMX) The endowment also owns a nice collection of foreign telecom stocks, the biggest being America Movil, the Latin American wireless giant. It's a prototypical emerging-market name Harvard's fund managers tend to seek out. America Movil is priced a little more palatably than Alcon, at only 15 times its trailing earnings and looks even juicier at 12.1 times projected 2011 earnings. That may not be the biggest reason why the endowment now owns $30 million worth, nor is it solely why the portfolio increased its position by 36% last quarter. No, America Movil likely caught the attention of the endowment's pros after it posted six consecutive annual earnings increases. It's on pace for a seventh this year. Some of those improving quarters were better than others, to be sure, but the company's stale growth between 2007 and 2010 appears to truly be a thing of the past. This year's anticipated 27% increase in the bottom line is set to be the strongest growth pace since 2007. 3 & 4: Southeast Asia, Brazil Finally, one of the Harvard endowment fund's biggest positions is its $200 million stake in the iShares MSCI Pacific ex-Japan Fund ( EPP). That being said, it's worth noting the fund's managers have allocated almost as much money to the iShares Brazil Fund ( EWZ). At last look, about $187 million of the $27 billion portfolio (about 0.7%) was invested in the Brazil ETF, making it the biggest country-specific holding in the endowment. The picks speak for themselves -- they're bets that the Pacific Rim countries and the South American powerhouse, most of which could be considered emerging market names, appear better positioned for growth than other geopolitical areas. Its interest in Brazil is one I explored and agreed with just a few days ago. Action to Take: Sometimes it pays to directly poach the picks of a team of stock-pickers who have more than proven their worth. Other times, investors can be better served by just borrowing the themes and underlying ideas of professional fund managers. Prev 1 of 3 Next

Does Hillary Clinton Understand the Biggest Divide in American Politics?
By Adam Johnson
By Keith Heyer Meldahl $16.50
Ron Kovic's impassioned, timely memoir about the American Veterans movement picks up where "Born on the Fourth of July" leaves off.
In his new book, Kovic offers a deeply moving account of the struggle of Vietnam veterans to hold politicians accountable to the maimed warriors they sent into harm's way and then abandoned.
Antal first made headlines in 2012, when he posted a sermon condemning U.S. foreign policy. Now, he has made waves by publicly resigning from his religious role in the Army because of the Obama administration's drone and nuclear policies.
Sponsored by Missouri Sen. Claire McCaskill, the bill is aimed at World War II vets who were exposed to the gas in experiments designed to prepare for chemical warfare.
Expanding legal access to cannabis would help veterans with PTSD and many other vulnerable populations. Because the next president may not do it, it's a change that should be made now.
Chris Hedges and two combat veterans analyze the realities of American intervention in the Middle East and explain why the brutalized become brutal.
Neither the Navy nor the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs has a comprehensive list of which ships went where during the Vietnam War. As a result, veterans themselves often have to prove their ships served in areas where Agent Orange was sprayed.
Donald Trump, the ultimate "chicken hawk," pretends to be a big booster of veterans, but he's been deeply offensive toward a significant group of vets.
In this week's "Scheer Intelligence"—the Truthdig editor-in-chief's podcast on KCRW—Vietnam veteran, author and peace activist Ron Kovic discusses what has changed and what hasn't since his time in combat.
Most Americans are either overworked or hurting for jobs; housing is overpriced; hospitals, crowded and understaffed. Opioid or heroin overdose is a common way of death. Did the American soldiers I covered in Afghanistan know they were fighting for this?
By Nick Anderson
Please don't call us "heroes." Honor our service by telling us you participate in our democracy.
Whether a Truthdig series had anything to do with it or not, the mayor has committed to finding $100 million to get 10,000 people off the streets and into programs to help them.
The task is labor-intensive, beginning with interviewing one person at a time, and it requires perseverance, patience and a willingness to work against all odds. It is made no easier by a callous, Republican-controlled Congress.
Although falling asleep, standing still and sitting down are all necessary for survival, more and more communities are treating these behaviors as crimes when done in public places by people with nowhere else to go.
A new leak about shoddy treatment of ailing veterans is just the latest disclosure that casts a shadow over the VA.
Since 2009, $260 million U.S. tax dollars have been spent on unaccredited schools, thanks to a loophole in the GI Bill.
Who knew comedy had such power to bring about change?
In a scathing segment on the U.S. Department of Veteran Affairs, the "Daily Show" host highlights how our government officials have no problem overspending on wars, but they cut every corner they can with veterans' health.
Inhabitants of U.S. territories, like Guam, Puerto Rico and American Samoa, still don't have voting rights, and surprisingly these aren't the only rights some of them are denied.
The "Born on the Fourth of July" author, being interviewed by Truthdig Editor Robert Scheer at the veterans hospital in Long Beach, Calif., notes that any TV pundit who calls for war is "not the one who's going to get hit by a bullet."
This week on Truthdig Radio in association with KPFK: We revisit some of our favorite interviews from the past year. Topics include: war powers, banned books, the Koch brothers and the incredible journey of veteran turned pacifist Rory Fanning.

In the latest move against companies targeting military customers, federal regulators prohibit two Virginia-based lenders from suing out-of-state debtors in Virginia courts.
Go to war and every politician will thank you, and they'll continue to do so—with monuments and statues, war museums and military cemeteries—long after you're dead. But who thanks those who refused to fight, even in wars that most people later realized were tragic mistakes?
By Clay Bennett

My heart sank, my shoulders slumped. Special guests at the Concert for Valor were to include: Meryl Streep, Tom Hanks, and Steven Spielberg. The mission of the concert, according to a press release, was to "raise awareness" of veterans issues and "provide a national stage for ensuring that veterans and their families know that their fellow Americans' gratitude is genuine."
By Mark Fiore
With stores near military bases across the country, the retailer USA Discounters offers easy credit to service members. But when those loans go bad, the company uses the local courts near its Virginia headquarters to file suits by the thousands.
War brings with it a host of horrors, but the worst is what it does to children. The suffering of the young, perpetrated by those who carry weapons, exposes war's demented pathology.
There is little evidence that the billions of dollars spent each year to treat military service members and veterans diagnosed with post-traumatic stress disorder are having their intended effects, a new report commissioned by Congress finds.
Steve Sack, Cagle Cartoons, The Minneapolis Star Tribune
Memorial Day should honor not only those military personnel who gave their lives for America but really all those who have suffered and died in war.

Unless you've been living under a rock, you have at the very least, heard of NoSQL. You may not know much about it, what types of NoSQL databases exists, what the functionalities they provide or even know the names of some NoSQL databases. If this is true, then Getting Started with NoSQL is for you. The book will help guide you thru an evaluation process of NoSQL databases, considering a set of requirements and use cases with which to help evaluate each type of database.
Overview of NoSQL
Characteristics of NoSQL
NoSQL storage types
Advantages and Drawbacks
Comparative Study of NoSQL products
Case Study
Quick read, only 142 pages
Provides a good comparison of the NoSQL database types vs the RDBMS, and what NoSQL is and is NOT.
Lots of hyperlinks within the text - this was my first time reading an e-book on a Kindle so I don't know if that is typical of not. I expect that is not the case.
Comparatively light coverage of Graph databases vs more popular types, for example Document store
Described as appropriate for "technology decision makers - be it architect, product manager or CTO". I would agree this book is appropriate for developers, architects and possibly product managers.
The book takes an analytic approach to comparing different NoSQL database types based on a specified set of criteria. It walks you thru the comparisons, evaluating how each database type rates in terms of the criteria and merely suggests which database type they feel would be most appropriate for the use cases being evaluated.
First, the book defines NoSQL and explains what it is and what it is not. Especially, the characteristics and differences compared to SQL are described. The next chapter explains most important NoSQL storage types: Column-oriented databases, document stores, key-value stores, and graph databases. Advantages and disadvantages of these concepts are explained in detail, before comparing most important NoSQL products such as Cassandra, Neo4j, MongoDB or Redis. A case study (which uses MongoDB) concludes the book to show how an implementation with a NoSQL database is different from using a relational database.
What I was missing in this book is a section about other NoSQL concepts such as XML databases or file-based storages such as HDFS (Hadoop Distributed File System).
With 150 pages, the book is not extensive, but sufficient. It is a good introduction to NoSQL databases for developers, architects and decision makers. If you dot not have any experiences with NoSQL databases, then this book is for you. If you are already familiar with different NoSQL concepts and products, you will not learn much new stuff, as the book is not going into deep details. Though, it is still a good overview for NoSQL concepts and products.
The book starts with two chapters on "Overview-" and "Characteristics of NoSQL". The latter chapter is especially interesting because it starts with the relational approach and then puts the NoSQL approach in contrast. It's a quite pleasant read how Vaish is discussing all different aspects and the complete differences to the NoSQL world. Chapter three discusses the typical four NoSQL DB types and has a few sentences which is a novelty for NoSQL books. Nevertheless I am sure you will see this area increase dramatically in the future. The mixture of information together with good code examples is well done.
Vaish continues with a short "Advantages and Drawbacks" chapter which is perfect for beginners. But the true pearl of this book is the chapter "Comparative Study of NoSQL Products". There he compares ten databases by a lot of criteria as language, engine type, speed, features, bulk operations, query capabilities, security, multitenacy, RDBMS related features, tools, protocols and much more as community and vendor support. The book closes with a case study implemented in MongoDB as an example. This is quite useful as it contains features and constraints and schema discussion.
The book itself is extremely well written for the target audience wanted to get started with NoSQL. The discussion depth of advantages and drawbacks is amazing compared to the size of the book. And it's really hard to find drawbacks of the books. E.g.Read more ›

Was extremely good value for money, the only thing letting it down was the distance of the relaxation room from the pool area. Also getting in and out of the pool area is awkward as they dont give you passes if your there for the day. The staff were extremely friendly helpful and went above and beyond to make sure we had a great day. The lunch was spectacular in a coeliac and they catered for me.

Firstly, my four stars reflects our visit at Best Western Heronston and not the star rating of the hotel as I believe it has a three star rating which I would agree with.
We stayed here for 3 nights to celebrate my 21st birthday as part of a break away in Wales which I thoroughly enjoyed and if we came back to Bridgend again, I would definitely consider staying in the Heronston again.
We thought the staff were all friendly and accommodating especially as during the Wednesday evening they had a function in the evening (I believe a school prom) and again on the Friday evening yet all the staff were friendly and efficient.
Our room was lovely (50), a bit of a walk from the main reception but this probably helped keeping the noise level to a minimum and we were pleasantly surprised about how comfortable the bed was. Our only complaints would be that the towel rail didn't work in the bedroom, there wasn't any air con (although there was a fan provided which we used) and our bins weren't emptied by the maids on two of the three nights.
Breakfast was lovely, a buffet style which offered a good selection of hot and continental and the staff were happy to help with any dietary requirements, and we dined in the Crane restaurant which again was better than expected, we enjoyed pate for starters, pork loin & pan seared chicken for mains and my Mr enjoyed the cheesecake for pudding.
The only downside for the restaurant for us was that the beer that my Mr ordered came warm and didn't seemed to be chilled and I personally thought dinner was over priced even though we ordered from a set menu as a cheaper option.
The swimming pool was a nice setting and I thought this, the sauna and steam room were kept very clean, although we must have gone down to the pool at a busy time as we had to wait about 40 minutes before using the jacuzzi as there were quite a few couples waiting to use it, maybe there should be a time restriction as I know there are in other spas?
Other than my minor complaints, we enjoyed our stay here and would come again next time we're in the area!
Many thanks to all the staff at Best Western for their hospitality! less

We spent four days at this hotel, midweek, in July. We had paid extra for a superior room and we were delighted with the room. It was spacious, airy and had a sitting area with leather sofa and chair. The bathroom was very good and everything worked. the hotel has a lift. We were booked on a dinner, bed and breakfast basis. the first dinner was good and we were impressed. Breakfast was every day outstanding. The quality of the bacon and sausage was very good. On some days the dining room was very crowded and then the hot food was served as a buffet. This was less satisfactory than when silver service but still o.k. The dining room staff at breakfast were excellent. Thanks particularly to Sian who is clearly a star. The food available at dinner on the following three nights was not as good as the first. Mainly because the menu barely changes at all. When we queried why the soup of the day was the same one waiter said that 'they make a big batch and it keeps coming out until its gone'. As someone who trained staff in customer relations I would suggest that this particular line is dropped as it doesn't help the hotel. However because the dining staff knew we were not thrilled with the same menu over and over again (apart from a slight change to one item) they did say that we could choose from the a la carte or bar menu as well. this worked very well. the leisure suite is superb. Lovely pool. Lovely lighting. Clean facilities. Only negative the changing room floor gets very wet. Aplause to Meryl who dealt with our booking on the phone who gave an excellent impression of the hotel and to Hugh the duty manager who dealt with the only minor negative to the room in a professional and immediate manner. Thank you and well done. the hotel holds a lot of conferences and weddings and we think it could be very busy during the weekend with weddings taking place. Suggestions for improvements - we had two small bottles of mineral water in our room on arrival. But for four days they were not replaced nor were the original toiletries. So we could both bathe/shampoo once. I have never stayed in anay good quality hotel where the room goodies were not replenished. It seems mean not to do so. I recommend this hotel during the week but I think it could be very different during a busy weekend. less

My boyfriend and I visited this hotel for a spa afternoon tea package for our anniversary this year. I believe we paid £29 each and prior to going, we really didn't expect much considering the hotels in Cardiff charge £50+ each.
On arrival, we were already pleasantly surprised as we were handed fresh smelling robes, towels and slippers then shown around by a very kind male member of staff. Firstly, we got changed then went to the 'relaxation room' to chill before our treatments (a back, neck and shoulder massage each). The room was very nice with comfortable loungers and nice lighting. After this point, I was called for my massage so my boyfriend went to lie on a lounger by the pool.
The lady doing the treatments was very friendly and put me at ease immediately (sometimes I feel a bit self-conscious when I've been for treatments that involve removing clothing). The massage was very relaxing and the room was nicely decorated to create a nice atmosphere while peaceful music played in the background.
After this was over, I went to the pool area while my boyfriend went for his massage. It was very quiet by the pool even when the odd few people came in and out. The area was also very clean and a nice temperature. I loved that they have a water cooler in there - something that many health clubs don't have. I really loved the atmosphere by the pool with the mood lighting, decor and just generally how pleasant it was. I also went into the sauna and steam room, both of which were very nice and clean.
Later on, myself and my boyfriend got changed and went to the gym. It was quite small but had enough for a quick workout so we weren't too bothered.
Once we were finished in the gym, we went for our afternoon tea which we were quite frankly amazed by. There we were, expecting a limp sandwich and a cuppa when out comes a big cake stand filled with very appetising looking cakes, sandwiches with garnish and a nice pot of tea (my boyfriend had a coke - it's nice that they give that option for non-tea or coffee drinkers). We left after we'd finished eating, thoroughly happy with our experience.
To summarise:
Pros - lovely atmosphere, great treatments, excellent value for money (please don't increase your prices, I really want to come back and do it again for that price), very friendly staff, great service, lovely food.
Cons - the changing room was very slippery (one of those mat things they have in public pool walkways would solve this though) and they don't give the options for couples to get their treatments done at the same time or in the same room but neither of these things made me feel any less positive about the whole experience.
I highly recommend this experience and will be doing it again when I can. less

Children's LiteratureA girl narrator says that her younger sister complains that she never shares anything, but it's not true. The girl would be happy to give her younger sister all of her broccoli or sprouts, the warts on her elbow, her chores and homework, her broken nightlight, her slug collection, and the scab on her chin. This mixture of gross and routine things that kids don't like sets up the ending�says the narrator, "she says I never give her anything? It just isn't true./Why only last week,/I gave her the flu!" The appealing surprise ending wins a chuckle. Krejca's exaggerated portrayals rendered in crosshatched colored pencil suit the rhymed and silly text. This is a story most readers will want to read again, and while the "generous" girl character may not look like the manipulative Angela Pickles of "Rugrats," most children would swear she is a close cousin.

Oh I'd love to. I started Thy Flesh Consumed over a year ago, but I was not satisfied with how it was turning out :S I still have the .fla I started, and even the recordings from my voice actor, so the parts are there for me to continue. I'd really love to make it happen, but lately I don't have much time to make flash animations as I used to :( But maybe I can pick it up again one of these days and eventually finish it :)

New Bill Would Clean Up Abandoned Coal Mines And Jump Start The Appalachian Economy
CREDIT: AP Photo/David Goldman
Coal's downturn is hitting economies in Appalachian states hard, but a new bill hopes to energize these economies, while also helping communities clean up old, abandoned mines.
The RECLAIM Act, introduced Wednesday by five representatives from Kentucky, Virginia, Pennsylvania, and West Virginia, would make $1 billion available to coal communities that "have traditionally relied on the coal industry for employment or have recently experienced significant coal job losses," according to a release from bill sponsor Hall Rodgers (R-KY). That $1 billion would come from the Abandoned Mine Reclamation (AML) Fund, which is headed up by the Department of the Interior.
"In Kentucky alone, we've lost more than 11,000 coal mining jobs since 2009. Instead of allowing those funds to go unused, now is the time to help our coal producing states reinvest in the coalfields with projects that can create new jobs and reinvigorate our economy," Rep. Rogers said in a statement. "Many coal communities in Appalachia simply do not have the resources to reclaim the abandoned mine sites within their borders. This bill allows these communities to be proactive in restoring these sites and utilize them to put our people back to work."
Coal has been declining in Central Appalachia for the past few decades. In 2008, coal production in the region — which includes parts of Kentucky, West Virginia, Virginia, and Tennessee — fell to 235 million tons, a decrease of 20 percent from 1997's peak production in the region. Since 2008, coal production across the United States has fallen by 15 percent, and in 2015, it dropped to a 30-year low. And once-prosperous coal companies continue to struggle: Arch Coal, one of the country's largest coal companies, filed for bankruptcy in January, joining Patriot Coal, Walter Energy, and Alpha Natural Resources.
Coal's decline in Appalachia can be linked to a number of factors, including competition from cheap natural gas and lower-sulfur western coal. On top of that, the automation of the coal industry means that fewer coal miners are needed to produce coal, which contributes to job losses.
As coal companies abandon mines in Appalachia, they leave behind swaths of land that are in need of restoration. That's where the RECLAIM Act comes in — it will put money into restoring these lands, turning them into areas that are good for tourism, business, or other infrastructure.
"If this bill passes, it's going to create a $200 million a year of just desperately needed money to fund creative, new economic development initiatives in the coal fields," Matt Wasson, director of programs for Appalachian Voices, told ThinkProgress.
The bill's goals are similar to the Obama administration's Power Plus Plan, which includes $20 million in funding for out-of-work coal miners and coal plant workers and $25 million in funding for the Appalachian Regional Commission, which seeks to improve economic opportunities in the region. It also comes as other efforts seek to get out-of-work coal miners back into jobs: one web design startup in Kentucky, for instance, is hiring former coal miners to write code. So far Bit Source, the start-up company, has only hired 10 workers, but it's gotten nearly 1,000 responses to its job advertisements.
The bill also comes as the Interior Department is working to finalize the Stream Protection Rule, which takes steps to protect bodies of water in the U.S. from mining pollution — particularly from mountaintop removal mining, which is highly environmentally destructive and can bury entire streams with mining waste. On Wednesday, the Senate Environment and Public Works Committee held a hearing on the rule, with some lawmakers criticizing it as federal regulation that should have been left up to the states. Others, including Sen. Barbara Boxer (D-CA), stood up for the rule, saying that it would help protect water sources for communities in Appalachia, many of whom have already experienced water contamination from mining activities.
"We just faced the Flint, Michigan tragedy. Don't you think the people [in Appalachia] have the right to know what's in their water?" Boxer said at the hearing.
The Stream Protection Rule can work in tandem with the RECLAIM Act, according to Appalachian Voices, because it helps protect the natural resources that can bring tourism revenue to Appalachian states.
"The driving goal of RECLAIM is to help coal communities rebuild their economies, hopefully in a way that will sustain them for generations to come," said Adam Wells, Appalachian Voice's economic diversification campaign coordinator, in a statement. "The Stream Protection Rule — especially if strengthened — could help protect and restore our water resources and rich aquatic life, one of the most valuable assets we have for building that new economy."
