The Fallen 1
Aaron Corbet was having the dream again.
Yet it was so much more than that.
Since they began, over three months before, the visions of sleep had grown more and more intense—more vivid. Almost real.
He is making his way through the primitive city, an ancient place constructed of brown brick, mud, and hay. The people here are in a panic, for something attacks their homes. They run about frenzied, their frightened cries echoing throughout the cool night. Sounds of violence fill the air, blades clanging together in battle, the moans of the wounded—and something else he can't quite place, a strange sound in the distance, but moving closer.
Other nights he has tried to stop the frightened citizens, to catch their attention, to ask them what is happening, but they do not see or hear him. He is a ghost to their turmoil.
Husbands and wives, shielding small children between them, scramble across sand-covered streets desperately searching for shelter. Again he listens to their fear-filled voices. He does not understand their language, but the meaning is quite clear. Their lives and the lives of their children are in danger.
For nights too numerous to count he has come to this place, to this sad village and witnessed the panic of its people. But not once has he seen the source of their terror.
He moves through the winding streets of the dream place, feeling the roughness of desert sand beneath his bare feet. Every night this city under siege becomes more real to him, and tonight he feels its fear as if it were his own. And again he asks himself, fear of what? Who are they who can bring such terror to these simple people?
In the marketplace a boy dressed in rags, no older than he, darts out from beneath a tarp covering a large pile of yellow, gourdlike fruit. He watches the boy stealthily travel across the deserted market, sticking close to the shadows. The boy nervously watches the sky as he runs.
Odd that the boy would be so concerned with the sky overhead.
The boy stops at the edge of the market and crouches within a thick pool of night. He stares longingly across the expanse of open ground at another area of darkness on the other side.
There is unrelenting fear on the dark-skinned youth's face; his eyes are wide and white. What is he so afraid of? Aaron looks up himself and sees only the night, like velvet adorned with twinkling jewels. There is nothing to fear there, only beauty to admire.
The boy darts from his hiding place and scrambles across the open area. He is halfway there when the winds begin. Sudden, powerful gusts that come out of nowhere, hurling sand, dirt, and dust.
The boy stops short and shields his face from the scouring particles. He is blinded, unsure of his direction. Aaron wants to call to him, to help the boy escape the mysterious sandstorm, but knows that his attempts would be futile, that he is only an observer.
And there is the sound. He can't place it exactly, but knows it is familiar. There is something in the sky above—something that beats at the air, stirring the winds, creating the sudden storm.
The boy is screaming. His sweat-dampened body is powdered almost white in a sheen of fine dust and desert sand.
The sounds are louder now, closer.
What is that? The answer is right at the edge of his knowing. He again looks up into the sky. The sand still flies about, tossed by the winds. It stings his face and eyes, but he has to see—he has to know what makes these strange pounding sounds, what creates gusts of wind powerful enough to propel sand and rock. He has to know the source of such unbridled horror in these people of the dream-city—in this boy.
And through the clouds of fine debris, he sees them. For the first time he sees them.
They are wearing armor. Golden armor that glistens in the dancing light thrown from the flames of their weapons.
The boy runs toward him. It seems that Aaron is suddenly visible. The boy reaches out, pleading to be saved in the language of his people.
This time, he understands every word. He tries to answer, but earsplitting shrieks fill the night, the excited cries of predators that have discovered their prey.
The boy tries to run, but there are too many.
Aaron can do nothing but watch as the birdlike creatures descend from the sky, falling upon the boy, his plaintive screams of terror drowned out by the beating of powerful wings.
Angels' wings.
It was Gabriel's powerful, bed-shaking sneeze that pulled Aaron from the dream and back to the waking world.
Aaron's eyes snapped open as another explosion of moisture dappled his face. For the moment, the dream was forgotten and all that occupied his mind was the attentions of an eighty-pound Labrador retriever named Gabriel.
"Unnngh," he moaned as he pulled his arm up from the warmth beneath the covers to wipe away the newest spattering of dog spittle.
"Thanks, Gabe," he said, his voice husky from sleep.
"What time is it anyway? Time to get up?" he asked the dog lying beside him.
The yellow retriever leaned its blocky head forward to lick the back of his exposed hand, his muscular bulk blocking Aaron's view of the alarm clock.
"Okay, okay," Aaron said as he pulled his other hand out to ruffle the dog's velvety soft, golden-brown ears, and wiggled himself into an upright position to check the time.
Craving more attention, Gabriel flipped over onto his back and swatted at Aaron with his front paws. He chuckled and rubbed the dog's exposed belly before training his eyes on the clock on the nightstand beside his bed.
Aaron watched the red digital readout change from 7:28 to 7:29.
"Shit," he hissed.
Sensing alarm in his master, Gabriel rolled from his back to his stomach with a rumbling bark.
Aaron struggled from the bed, whipped into a frenzy by the lateness of the hour.
"Shit. Shit. Shit. Shit," he repeated as he pulled off his Dave Matthews concert T-shirt and threw it onto a pile of dirty clothes in the corner of the room. He pulled down his sweatpants and kicked them into the same general vicinity. He was late. Very late.
He'd been studying for Mr. Arslanian's history exam last night, and his head was so crammed with minutiae about the Civil War that he must have forgotten to set the alarm. He had less than a half hour to get to Kenneth Curtis High School before first bell.
Aaron lunged for his dresser and yanked clean underwear and socks from the second drawer. In the mirror above, he could see Gabriel curiously staring at him from the bed.
"Man's best friend, my butt," he said to the dog on his way into the bathroom. "How could you let me oversleep?"
Gabriel just fell to his side among the tousled bedclothes and sighed heavily.
Aaron managed to shower, brush his teeth, and get dressed in a little more than seventeen minutes.
I might be able to pull this off yet, he thought as he bounded down the stairs, loaded bookbag slung over his shoulder. If he got out the door right at this moment and managed to make all the lights heading down North Common, he could probably pull into the parking lot just as the last bell rang.
It would be close, but it was the only option he had.
In the hallway he grabbed his jacket from the coatrack and was about to open the door when he felt Gabriel's eyes upon him.
The dog stood behind him, watching him intensely, head cocked at a quizzical angle that said, "Haven't you forgotten something?"
Aaron sighed. The dog needed to be fed and taken out to do his morning business. Normally he would have had more than enough time to see to his best friend's needs, but today was another story.
"I can't, Gabe," he said as he turned the doorknob. "Lori will give you breakfast and take you out."
And then it hit him. He'd been in such a hurry to get out of the house that he hadn't noticed his foster mother's absence.
"Lori?" he called as he stepped away from the door and quickly made his way down the hall to the kitchen. Gabriel followed close at his heels.
This is odd, he thought. Lori was usually the first to rise in the Stanley household. She would get up around five A.M., get the coffee brewing, and make her husband, Tom, a bag lunch so he could be out of the house and to the General Electric plant where he was a foreman, by seven sharp.
The kitchen was empty, and with a hungry Gabriel by his side, Aaron made his way through the dining room to the living room.
The room was dark, the shades on the four windows still drawn. The television was on, but had gone to static. His seven-year-old foster brother, Stevie, sat before the twenty-two-inch screen, staring as if watching the most amazing television program ever produced.
Across the room, below a wall of family photos that had jokingly become known as the wall of shame, his foster mom was asleep in a leather recliner. Aaron was disturbed at how old she looked, slumped in the chair, wrapped in a worn, navy blue terry cloth robe. It was the first time he ever really thought about her growing older, and that there would be a day when she wouldn't be around anymore. Where the hell did that come from? he wondered. He pushed the strange and really depressing train of thought away and attempted to think of something more pleasant.
When the Stanleys had taken him into their home as a foster child, it had been his seventh placement since birth. What was it that the caseworkers used to say about him? "He's not a bad kid, just a bit of an introvert with a bad temper." Aaron smiled. He never expected the placements to last, and had imagined that there would be an eighth, ninth, and probably even a hundredth placement before he was cut loose from the foster care system and let out into the world on his own.
A warm pang of emotion flowed through him as he remembered the care this woman and her husband had given him over the years. No matter how he misbehaved, or acted out, they stuck with him, investing their time, their energy, and most importantly, their love. The Stanleys weren't just collecting a check from the state; they really cared about him, and eventually he came to think of them as the parents he never knew.
Gabriel had wandered over to the boy in front of the television and was licking his face—Aaron knew it was only to catch the residue of the child's breakfast. But the boy did not respond, continuing to stare at the static on the screen, eyes wide, mouth agape.
Steven was the Stanleys' only biological child and he had autism, the often misunderstood mental condition that left those afflicted so absorbed with their own reality, that they were rarely able to interact with the world around them. The boy could be quite a handful and Lori stayed home to care for his special needs.
Lori twitched and came awake with a start. "Stevie?" she asked groggily, looking for her young son.
"He's watching his favorite show," Aaron said, indicating Gabriel and the little boy. He looked back to his foster mom. "You all right?"
Lori stretched and, pulling her robe tight around her throat, smiled at him. Her smile had always made him feel special and this morning wasn't any different. "I'm fine, hon, just a little tired is all." She motioned with her chin to the boy in front of the television. "He had a bad night and the static was the only thing that calmed him down."
She glanced over at the mini–grandfather clock hanging on the wall and squinted. "Is that the time?" she asked. "What are you still doing here? You're going to be late for school."
He started to explain as she sprang from the seat and began to push him from the room. "I was up late studying and forgot to set the alarm and …"
"Tell me later," she said as she placed the palm of her hand in the small of his back, helping him along.
"Would you mind feeding—"
"No, I wouldn't, and I'll take him for a walk," Lori said, cutting him off. "Get to school and ace that history test."
He was halfway out the door when he heard her call his name from the kitchen. There was a hint of panic in her voice.
Aaron poked his head back in.
"I almost forgot," she said, the dog's bowl in one hand and a cup of dry food in the other. Gabriel stood attentively at her side, drool streaming from his mouth to form a shiny puddle at his paws.
"What is it?" he asked, a touch of impatience beginning to find its way into his tone.
She smiled. "Happy birthday," she said, and pursed her lips in a long distance kiss. "Have a great day."
My birthday, he thought closing the door behind him and running to his car.
With all the rushing about this morning, he'd forgotten.
Aaron squeaked into homeroom just as the day's announcements were being read over the school's ancient PA system.
Mrs. Mihos, the elderly head of the math department mere months away from retirement, looked up from her copy of Family Circle and gave him an icy stare.
He mouthed the words "I'm sorry" and quickly found his seat. He had learned that the less said to Mrs. Mihos the better. Her edicts were simple: Be on time to homeroom, turn in notes to explain absences in a timely fashion, and whatever you do, don't be a wiseass. Aaron chillingly recalled how Tommy Philips, now seated at the back of the classroom intently keeping his mouth shut, had attempted to be the funny guy. He'd written a joke letter to explain an absence, and found himself with a week's worth of detentions. There was nothing the math teacher hated more than a wiseass.
Aaron chanced a look at the old woman and saw that she was flipping through the attendance sheets to change his status from absent to present. He breathed a sigh of relief as the first period bell began to ring. Maybe today wouldn't be a total disaster after all.
First period American Literature went fine, but halfway through second period, while taking Mr. Arslanian's test, Aaron decided that he couldn't have been more wrong about the day. Not only was he blanking on some of the information he had studied, but he also had one of the worst headaches he could ever remember. His head felt as if it were vibrating, buzzing like someone had left an electric shaver running inside his skull. He rubbed at his brow furiously and tried to focus on an essay question about the social and political ramifications of the Richmond Bread Riot. Arslanian's fascination with obscure events of the Civil War was going to give him an aneurysm.
The remainder of the class passed in the blink of an eye, and Aaron wondered if he had passed out or maybe even been taken by space aliens. He had barely finished the last of the essay questions when the end-of-period bell clanged, a real plus for the pain in his head. He quickly glanced over the pages of his test. It wasn't the best he'd ever done, but considering how he felt, he didn't think it was too bad.
"I'd like to give you another couple of hours to wrap the test up in a pretty pink bow, Mr. Corbet …"
Aaron had zoned out again. He looked up to see the heavyset form of Mr. Arslanian standing beside his desk, hand beckoning.
"But my wife made a killer turkey for dinner last night and I have leftovers waiting for me in the teachers' lounge."
Aaron just stared, the annoying buzz in his head growing louder and more painful.
"Your exam, Mr. Corbet," demanded Mr. Arslanian.
Aaron pulled himself together and handed the test to his teacher. Then he gathered up his books and prepared to leave. As he stood the room began to spin and he held on to the desk for a moment, just in case.
"Are you all right, Mr. Corbet?" Arslanian asked as he ambled back to his desk. "You look a little pale."
Aaron was amazed that he only looked pale. He imagined there should have been blood shooting out his ears and squirting from his nostrils. He was feeling that bad. "Headache," he managed on his way to the door.
"Take some Tylenol," the teacher called after him, "and a cold rag on your head. That's what works for me."
Always a big help, that Mr. Arslanian, Aaron thought as he stepped lightly in an effort to keep his skull from breaking apart and decorating the walls with gore.
The hallway was jammed with bodies coming, going, or just hanging out in small packs in front of brightly colored lockers, catching up on the freshest gossip. It's amazing, Aaron thought sarcastically, how much dirt can happen during one fifty-minute period.
Aaron moved through the flow of students. He would drop off his books, and then go to the nurse's office to get something for his headache. It was getting worse, like listening to the static of an untuned radio playing inside his brain.
As he maneuvered around the pockets of people, he exchanged an occasional smile or a nod of recognition, but the few who acknowledged him were only being polite. He knew people looked at him as the quiet, loner guy with the troubled past, and he did very little to dispel their notions of him. Aaron didn't have any real friends at Ken Curtis, merely acquaintances, and it didn't bother him in the least.
He finally reached his locker and began to dial the combination.
Maybe if he got something into his stomach he'd feel better, he thought, remembering that he hadn't eaten anything since the night before. He swung the locker door open and began to unload his books.
A girl laughed nearby. He looked behind him to see Vilma Santiago at her locker with three of her friends. They were staring in his direction, but quickly looked away and giggled conspiratorially. What's so funny? he wondered.
They were speaking loudly enough for him to hear them. The only problem was they were speaking Portuguese, and he had no idea what they were saying. Two years of French did him little good while eavesdropping on Brazilian girls' conversations.
Vilma was one of the most beautiful girls he had ever seen. She had transferred to Ken Curtis last year from Brazil, and within months had become one of the school's top students. Smart as well as gorgeous, a dangerous combination, and one that had left him smitten. They saw each other at their lockers every day, but had never really spoken. It wasn't that he didn't want to speak to her, just that he could never think of anything to say.
He turned to arrange the books in his locker, and again felt their eyes upon him. They were whispering now, and he could feel his paranoia swell.
"Ele nâo é nada feio. Que bunda!"
The pain in his head was suddenly blinding, as if somebody had taken an ice pick and plunged it into the top of his skull. The feeling was excruciating and he almost cried out— certain to have provided his audience with a few good laughs. He pressed his forehead against the cool metal of the locker and prayed for respite. It can't hurt this bad for very long, he hoped. As the hissing grew more and more intense, shards of broken glass rubbed into his brain. He thought he would pass out as strange colorful patterns blossomed before his eyes and the pain continued to build.
The torturous buzzing came to an explosive climax, circuits within his mind suddenly overloaded, and before he fell unconscious—it was gone. Aaron stood perfectly still, waiting, afraid that if he moved the agony would return. What was that all about? he wondered, his hand coming up to his nose to check for bleeding.
There was nothing. No pain, no blaring white noise. In fact, he felt better than he had all morning. Maybe this is just part of a bizarre biological process one goes through when turning eighteen, he thought, bemused, reminding himself again that it was his birthday.
As he slammed the locker door, he realized that Vilma and her friends were still talking. "Estou cansada de pizza. Semana passada, nós comemos pizza, quase todo dia." They were discussing lunch options—cafeteria versus going off campus for pizza. Vilma wanted to go to the cafeteria, but the others were pressing for the pizza.
Aaron turned away from his locker considering whether or not he should still see the nurse, and caught Vilma's eye. She smiled shyly and quickly averted her gaze.
But not before the others noticed and began to tease her mercilessly. "Porqué? Vocé está pensando que una certo persoa vai estar no refeitó rio hoje?" Did she want to eat in the cafeteria because of a certain boy standing nearby? they asked her.
Aaron felt himself break out in a cold sweat. His suspicion was justified, for in fact the girls were talking about him.
"É, e daí? Eu acho que ele é un tesâo." Vilma responded to her friends' taunts and glanced again in his direction.
They were all looking at him when it dawned. He knew what they were saying. Vilma and her friends were still speaking to one another in Portuguese—but somehow he could understand each and every word.
But the most startling thing was what Vilma had said.
"Eu acho que ele é un tesâo."
She said he was cute.
Vilma Santiago thought he was cute!

When I picked up this book (which is really two, but they flow so well together, I forgot it was two), I broke a cardinal rule. I liked the cover. But I have to say, that it was worth it. I don't read a ton of YA, but this one was indeed cool. Fallen angels, demons, and the ability to speak to animals (or at least understand them); caught my attention from page one. I felt like I was there with Aaron, learning about his heritage, and coming to terms with what he is, the son of a fallen angel and a human female.
This book was hard to put down. Why? It moves at a nice, brisk pace and there are plenty of little details that correlate (sort of) to The Bible. It was rather fun to try to figure out how the main players were manipulated to create this story, and it was totally worth the read.
Aaron, even though he's not a typical teen, is a good teen for others to read about. Talk about angst. Yeah, the guy has issues. Girls, who he is, frustration, it's all here, but with a great paranormal twist. I loved his dog, Gabriel. He's got the best lines. What got to be a bit troubling was the heavy-handed use of passive voice. Sometimes I felt like I wasn't really in Aaron's point of view where it would've been better to be. Still, it wasn't enough to detract from the story and make me not want to continue.
I'm glad I read this book. If you want a paranormal that's a little off the beaten path, then pick up a copy of The Fallen. I give it 4.5 suns.

The Fallen:
Fast paced, well written with fascinating biblical lore. A most excellent beginning! What I love about Sniegoski's novel is that the lines between good and evil are often blurred, leaving the reader to decide what and how they feel. Plus, there's a talking dog! How do you not love a talking dog?
The characters are well written and easy to empathize with, even the "bad" angels. Aaron is appropriately conflicted and reticent. Camael and Verchiel are perfectly constructed, and appropriately illustrate the ages old battle between good and evil.
I can't wait to see where this story goes!
Okay, maybe I can wait to see where the story goes. Apparently nowhere.
While the characters evolve (always a plus), the story is literally a throw away. When finally I'd finished the book, I was perplexed, wondering how this particular arc factored into the series, of which there are SEVEN books. I just didn't get it and felt that I could have skipped it entirely and moved onto book three without fear of losing momentum, something I wish I had done.
This installment focuses on a mysterious little seaside town where strange things abound. Okay, groovy. But that's it. Aaron is almost immediately separated from Camael, who is a non-factor throughout much of this tale (and he was a fave of mine), and we spend 85% of our reading time following a hapless Aaron around as he tries to figure out the mystery. *Yawn*
BUT, I've read books three and four and the story has resumed its awesomeness! So don't despair, read the series, aside from book two it is really great.
Aaron is the average 17 yr old boy except he's not.... Aaron has never met his birth parents. His mom died during birth and his dad is just another run off dead beat....or is he? Aaron lives with his wonderful foster family that he adores. It is sweet to see how much he cares for them and is autistic little foster brother. His best friend happens to be his dog. ( which just so happens to have the best dialogue in this book) Aaron starts having weird dreams and things happen to him when it all comes crashing down on his 18th birthday. I don't want to spoil anything so I'm going to get on with this review.
It is a good thing this book came as a double feature. If book 1 and 2 wasn't bound together I probably wouldn't have picked up the second book. The first one is very slow and lengthy. To much filler for a first in a series. The story kinda hits the ground running. In a sense that you meet a lot of different characters. The book is told in the third person and it doesn't work for this book. You end up reading a bunch of stuff you don't really care about and buy the time you start to find yourself building ties to a character it drops off, and your on to someone/someplace new. It's a viscous cycle that leaves you not able to get invested emotionally in the characters, and mostly bored. My need to understand and like this book made me stick it out. The second book is alot better but still not great:( this makes me soooooo sad. I really had high hopes here. In the second book you find yourself kinda needing to know what happens. It is filled with alot of action but it is very bizarre. Some of it was down right gross and made me gag alittle. This was definitely a guys type of twisted, gory, sic-fiction story. There is a non existent romance to the story. Not so much as a kiss here; so if that is what you are looking for, keep looking.
In the end I have to say that I was disappointed but the author did his job and has left me wanting to read the next volumne.....eventually. ( and prolly only because it is already sitting on my shelf) I did learn a lesson here though! Never buy the entire series without reading the first book. My need to finish what I started and not wAste money is what makes me want to read the next.

Morton Subotnick's Pitch Painter
What parents need to know
Parents Need to Know
Parents need to know that Morton Subotnick's Pitch Painter is a stellar music app that gives young kids the rare opportunity to experiment with music composition. The app's creators compare the experience to finger painting in the way young kids explore visual art creation with no formal training in art; here, kids can create short musical compositions, choosing different instruments and laying down tracks by simply finger drawing on a blank canvas. A little guidance from parents will get young kids composing in no time.
What kids can learn
- music
- rhythm
Thinking & Reasoning
- part-whole relationships
- making new creations
- listening
Engagement, Approach, Support
This stellar app allows kids to experiment with musical composition. The interface is perfect for young kids, who will love seeing and hearing the music they create.
Kids can learn basic elements of music and composition including pitch, rhythm, and instrument sounds. A selection of instruments offers an introduction to the music of other cultures. Kids also get a taste of the basic structure of written music.
The app is extremely intuitive, so even if kids don't understand all the controls at first, they will quickly figure out the basics. Parents may need to help young kids in the beginning. The opening screen provides text instructions for parents with labels for all of the buttons.
User reviews
Parents say
Kids say
What's it about?
Kids tap to choose a set of instruments from one of four regions of the world. To compose, kids finger draw with any number of fingers on a blank canvas, tapping to change instruments as they would select colors in a painting app. Each color on the canvas represents a different instrument, and the musical pitch gets increasingly higher from the bottom to the top of the canvas. Press play and the composition plays from left to right. There are options to reverse and flip the canvas. Kids can save their creations to the app library and return to them later to play or edit.
Is it any good?
MORTON SUBOTNICK'S PITCH PAINTER allows young kids with no formal music training to experiment with musical creativity and composition. The ingenious interface is a perfect creative activity for young kids, who will love seeing and hearing the music they create. Additionally, with its musical canvas grid, the app introduces kids to the basic structure of written music in a concrete and visual way.
Keep in mind that Morton Subotnick's Pitch Painter is designed for young kids, and the limitations of the app reflect that fact. Older kids and adults will likely crave the ability to compose longer pieces or use more than three instruments in compositions. Inspiring a desire to create music seems like less of a complaint and more like a testament to this app's brilliance. Don't miss this one.
Families can talk about...
Encourage your kids to experiment with drawing different patterns in the app, for example, a row of dots or a diagonal line, and listen to how the music changes.
Bring more music creation into your kids' everyday activities. Tap out a rhythm and have your kids try to repeat it, then ask them to give you one to try.

Crave Mead – a historical hard beverage for a new age
By Magda Dakin
Perhaps man's earliest hard beverage, mead has a rich history, and has been seeing a resurgence in recent years. Mead has a delicate, yet rich, taste that is made in the same way as wine, using honey instead of grapes or other fruits. Meaderies are classified as wineries and represent about 2.5% of all wineries in the US.

The Pictorial Key to the Tarot
Courier Corporation, Mar 6, 2012 - Body, Mind & Spirit - 256 pages
Long used in telling fortunes and popular today among New Agers, Tarot cards are regarded by many as "the training wheels" on the bicycle of psychic development. Centuries of scientific progress have not diminished the irresistible attraction of gazing at picture cards to see the future and determine one's fate.
This book by Arthur Edward Waite, the designer of the most widely known Tarot deck and distinguished scholar of the Kabbalah, is the essential Tarot reference. The pictorial key contains a detailed description of each card in the celebrated 78-card Rider-Waite Tarot deck, along with regular and reversed meanings. Contents describe symbols and secret tradition; the four suits of Tarot, including wands, cups, swords, and pentacles; the recurrence of cards in dealing; an ancient Celtic method of divination; as well as wonderful illustrations of Tarot cards.
While the perfect complement to old-style fortune telling, The Pictorial Key to the Tarot also serves to make the Tarot entirely accessible to modern-day readers. It is also the classic guide to the Rider-Waite deck and to Tarot symbolism in general.

text: 000 FXUS63 KMQT 200835 AFDMQT Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Marquette MI 435 AM EDT WED JUL 20 2016 .SHORT TERM...(Today and tonight) Issued at 435 AM EDT WED JUL 20 2016 The upper ridge and convectively induced shortwave moving along the northern edge of the ridge continue to thwart the forecast process. Ended up knocking POPs down significantly for today as the shortwave previously anticipated to be moving out of MN completely dissipated. Models now have some isolated convection this afternoon/early evening firing mainly over western Upper Michigan as residual shortwave energy passes. Models suggest SBCAPE of 2000-3000 J/kg and effective shear around 30 KTS, so any storms that do develop could quickly become strong to possibly severe. Partly cloudy skies are expected, mainly from thin, high clouds leftover from upstream convective. 850mb temps will increase to 21C west, 19C east, by this evening, and that warm airmass will allow for temps to climb up to 90F over portions of the west half. Over the east half, south winds will keep areas downwind of Lake Michigan cooler but mainly still in the 80s. Lots of uncertainty tonight as models suggest a couple shortwaves could move through. The first shortwave looks to provide better chances for scattered convection, but the second could produce widespread convection that may be strong to severe, but that would mainly occur during the first part of the long term forecast (see long term for more details). Lots of issues to be resolved for the forecast for tonight, but those will probably not be easily determined until around 6 hours out due to shortwave energy. .LONG TERM...(Thursday through Tuesday) Issued at 352 AM EDT WED JUL 20 2016 Nam shows a 500 mb ridge across the central U.S. with a trough on both coasts and the upper Great Lakes in the ring of fire with the westerlies just to the north of the area. Any little shortwave that tops the ridge could kick off some convection and this will be hard to forecast and time these for this forecast period. For this reason, confidence is low with this forecast for Thu. Forecast hinges on MCS development tonight and how much clouds and instability occur for Thu along with heating. Will go middle of the road for now and go chance pops. Do not want to go with likely pops for Thu at this point. WIll go with less convection right now which will lead to more heating and ended up raising temperatures in a few places. Heat indices get up close to 100 in a few spots and will highlight this in the hwo product. The slight risk for Thu for our area also seems warranted with large hail and damaging winds being the main threat. Cold front moves through on Thu night and then dries out Thu night into Fri and continued dry for Fri into Fri night. Did not make too many other adjustments to the forecast for temperatures beyond Thu. In the extended, GFS and ECMWF show a broad 500 mb ridge over the southern U.S. 12z Sat with a broad trough in the pacific nw and northern Rockies. The shortwave in the northern Rockies heads east into the upper Great Lakes and brings a cold front through the area 12z Sun with some cooler temperatures coming back for early next week. This shortwave moves over the top of the ridge and digs into the Great Lakes region on Mon into Tue with the ridge starting to build up again in the Rockies on Tue, so a return of warmer air will be in the near future. Temperatures will remain above normal for this forecast period. Have some pops in for Sat into Sun with likely pops in for Sat night. Starts to dry out Mon with cooler and drier air moving in and have Mon night and Tue dry for now. && .AVIATION...(For the 06Z TAFS through 06Z Wednesday night) Issued at 126 AM EDT WED JUL 20 2016 Although high pres is departing, vfr conditions will prevail at KIWD/KCMX/KSAW thru this fcst period. As heat and moisture push back into the area on s to sw winds behind the high, some shra/tsra could develop this morning. Since confidence remains low, retained only a vcsh mention. && .MARINE...(For the 4 PM Lake Superior forecast issuance) Issued at 314 PM EDT TUE JUL 19 2016 Winds will stay below 20 knots through the forecast period under relatively a weak pressure gradient and high overwater stability. Warm and humid air will flow across Lake Superior Wednesday through Friday, which will allow fog to form, locally dense at times. && .MQT WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... Upper Michigan... None. Lake Superior... None. Lake Michigan... None. && $$ SHORT TERM...Titus LONG TERM...07 AVIATION...Rolfson MARINE...JLA

text: There has never been a moment in my life where I wasn't plus size. In fact, I was plus size before the world introduced us to the term plus size. As a relatively tall teenager (I've been 5'8 since I was 9) I grew up ashamed of my curves. Partly because I had to shop at the same places my mother did. I have to give myself credit though. Somehow I figured out how to dress up those mom jeans. I even learned a cute way to tie up my plaid shirts so that it would fit tight around my wide waist—just like my skinnier friends. But I never wanted to show off too much of my body. View Full Post

Could've been a swan on a glassy lake.
Could've been a gull in a clipper's wake.
Could've been a ladybug on a windchime,
but she was born a dragonfly.
In the sun she warmed her wings
and listened to the cicadas sing.
"The trees are all bending
in one direction
because of something..."
Cross-pollination by the legs of bees in the spring
is a beautiful thing.
Oh when the sun goes down,
the fireflies come out.
In a pond crept a slimy thing
that hummed a theme from the Rites of Spring.
Pity the mate of Queen Mantis,
so content, but so headless.
Katydid nothing but shiver and cry,
as did the dragonfly.
In the shade the gypsies spin
Among the cloves, they drop their skin.
"...beyond the hedgegrove,
over by the willows,
deep in the shadows..."
Regeneration occurs at a furious speed
beneath the white oak tree.
Oh when the sun comes up
the moon buds fold up.
In the sun she warmed her wings
and listened to the Rites of Spring
Could've been a swan on a glassy lake.
Could've been a gull in a clipper's wake.
Could've been a ladybug on a windchime,
but she was born a dragonfly.
"...ain't ever seen it, but i have heard it.
Sounds like the millstones when they are turning,
but every moment getting louder and louder,
and then there is silence,
and the smell of flowers."

The Secret Trick To Earn Money Online In Less Than 24 Hours
Free site optimization is really yet another method to describe web search engine optimization or search engine optimisation. The method is the same once you've identified your target key words. Remember low competition and high traffic keywords and phrases is the top option to generate free traffic to your own website.
Identifying key words is most likely the most crucial measure and certainly the initial step. Without finding good key words you can target you'll really struggle to generate any activity. When you receive hardly any visitors to your site it is virtually impossible to bring good ranks. That's why search engine optimisation is vital to the survival of your web site and business.
It is even more essential if you are looking for free website optimization. Although there are just as many quality ways to generate free visitors to your own site and in certain cases they are better than paid procedures, you must pay close attention to the details. Setting it up correctly right in the counter will take just a little time but pay huge dividends in the short term and particularly in the long term.
But you'll most likely make a much better job of it and pay closer attention to it all. You'll most likely take more time to find great quality keywords and produce better content and articles. All these really are the conditions of paid or free site optimization, naturally there really are a couple shortcuts, but as the saying so frequently goes; content is king.
Quality key word rich content and articles will always create free visitors to your site. Once you begin to get people to your site you are able to use other online marketing strategies to maintain them and make them return and frequent visitors. There really are several methods it is possible to utilise to do this.
One of the favourite and most reliable means would be to offer something in return to get a name and e-mail address. Offering a free report, audio file or video to everyone that visits your website is a good way to do this. You really should attempt to make that element of your internet promotion campaign; that's basically what you're looking to reach. It is simple to do that with an online auto responder which will totally automate the procedure. Once you do have something you can give away you can offer it in all kinds of locations having a link back to your website.

DALLAS—Colliers International North Texas says real estate veteran, Bo Estes, has joined its team. Estes brings more than 35 years of experience specializing in office tenant representation and corporate services in both the Dallas/Fort Worth market and across the country.
"I am excited to welcome Bo Estes to our family. He embodies our cultural beliefs in integrity, expertise, community, and fun. His ability to service large, multi-market clients will enhance Colliers International's ability to provide world class service wherever our clients require it," says David Pinsel, managing director of Colliers International. "Furthermore, his willingness and ability to mentor the next generation of professionals will make Colliers stronger for years to come."
Estes joins Colliers from Newmark Grubb Knight Frank, where he served as a managing director for Global Corporate Services. Estes began his career with Hank Dickerson & Company, where he served as associate and later as vice president of the firm, becoming a multi-million-dollar producer. In 1983, he joined Hines Industrial, as director of marketing where he established a staff and headed the leasing efforts for an entire portfolio of 14 low, mid and high-rise office properties in Dallas/Fort Worth, totaling more than a half billion dollars. Estes joined the well-known downtown Dallas firm of Bell & Hocker, Inc. in 1986, where he successfully negotiated leases for major tenants in some of Dallas' most prominent office addresses. After a merger with Grubb & Ellis in June of 1994, Estes has consistently been a top producer year in and year out as senior vice president, making the Circle of Excellence multiple years.
"The company brand, strong reputation in the marketplace, and quality individuals with high moral standards are what makes me proud to join the Colliers team," said Estes. "The vast array of services, tools, and talent across the board will afford me the opportunity to service all of my clients in the most efficient and professional manner possible."
Over his distinguished career, Estes has represented such firms as Avrea Foster, Littler Mendelson, Blue Cross Blue Shield, Lincoln Financial Group, and Lincoln National Life Insurance in multiple markets across the country.

Wooden Flying Cloud Tall Model Clipper Ship 20"
Ready for Immediate Display - Not a Model Ship kit
This fine tall ship model of the famous clipper ship Flying Cloud is perfectly sized for any shelf, desk, or mantle. Renowned for her speed and endurance sailing the open seas, these proud tall ship models of the Flying Cloud add a touch of historic spirit and flair of nautical décor to any bedroom, den, or office.
- Arrives fully assembled with all sails mounted
- Handcrafted wooden hull and masts
- Historically accurate sail configuration and extensive rigging
- 2 anchors with metal chain attached
- 21 handsewn white cloth sails
- Metal nameplate on wooden base identifies the ship as the Flying Cloud
A Legend is Born:
Built by Donald McKay in East Boston, Massachusetts in 1851, the Flying Cloud could be considered the fastest clipper ship of her time. Six weeks after her initial launch the Flying Cloud made headlines around the world with her record setting sail from New York to San Francisco in 89 days, 21 hours. Commanded by Captain Josiah Perkins Creesy the brilliant clipper travelled almost 125 miles a day for three days straight. Two years later the Flying Cloud broke her own record for the journey by 13 hours. In addition to her breathtaking speed on these journeys, the Flying Cloud was significant in that her navigator was Eleanor Creesy, wife of Captain Creesy.
The Flying Cloud and Her Contemporaries:
In the 1800s, during the California Gold Rush, ships took between six and eight months to travel the 16,000 miles between New York and San Francisco. While there were a few other ships that were capable of such blazing speeds, only two stand out as to be considered in the same league as the Flying Cloud. The clipper Andrew Jackson made the New York to San Francisco journey in 89 days and 4 hours, though after waiting all night to be brought to dock the record was not considered. The second clipper was the Hornet, which lost a race to the Flying Cloud in 1853. Despite departing New York a full two days ahead of the Flying Cloud, the Hornet arrived a mere 45 minutes earlier than her nemesis.
Her Final Years at Sea:
Following her legendary voyages and blaring newspaper headlines, the Flying Cloud was sold to the British Black Ball Line in 1862, and put to use in the log trade between England and Canada. On June 19, 1874 the Flying Cloud was grounded on shore on Beacon Island bar, St. John's, Newfoundland, later sold, stripped for whatever valuable metal could be found, and burned.

The Center for Puppetry Arts is marketing DVDs of 10 of its productions, beginning with the family shows Beauty and the Beast, Dinosaurs and American Tall Tales ($19.95 each, or three for $45.95). The Center ultimately hopes to get the discs, collectively called "Puppets At Play," in retail stores, but they're currently available at the center's gift shop and at www.puppet.org.
Atlanta's Creative Digital Group slickly produced the discs and filmed the live performances with three cameras, so there's seldom that watching-from-the-back-row feeling you often get with live theater recordings. But shows that use the "Czech Black" puppetry style, with dark-garbed puppeteers operating in the shadows, present a problem. The approach invariably puts a lot of darkness on the TV screen: Dinosaurs' delicate dance of luminescent jellyfish becomes disappointingly murky. Puppets pack more visual punch against well-lit, distinct backgrounds, such as the discs' comedic backstage introductions (clearly inspired by "The Muppet Show").
The Center currently has no plans to market any of its ingenious shows for mature audiences (although the upcoming Tales From Edgar Allen Poe aims for viewers 12 and up). But Beauty and the Beast showcases the Center's crazy-quilt creativity in surprisingly highbrow fashion. The fairy tale's big-city reinterpretation builds most of the characters and props from "found objects." Beauty, for instance, has a mop handle for a head, an umbrella for a skirt and a blouse off a clothesline for arms and torso. (The concept "clicks" when you recall that Beast's magic spell involves common objects coming to life, like the singing candlestick in the Disney version.) Beauty provides a fine example of the Center's musical playfulness, like the talking wrench and sledgehammer that break into a 1950s-style doo-wop song.
Each disc also features a "how-we-do-it" segment and a five-minute retrospective on the Center, with interviewees ranging from Associate Artistic Director Jon Ludwig to Brer Rabbit. I eagerly await the discs of Ludwig's brilliant shows The Body Detective and The Plant Doctors, which promise to offer edutainment -- at its most edutaining.

How to guides
How to fit ceiling lights
A standard single pendant light fitting near the centre of the ceiling can sometimes leave a lot to be desired. As long as you can get to the ceiling void from above without too much disruption, it's not complicated to move a light to wherever you really need it. Alternatively, you can boost your light levels by adding extra pendants which you operate either by the existing switch or by a new one. You'll find that pre-wired lampholder-plus-flex combinations are widely available.

In this paper, a (1200,720) LDPC decoder based on an irregular parity check matrix is presented. For achieving higher chip density and less critical path delay, the proposed architecture features a data reordering such that only one specific data bus exists between message memories and computational units. Moreover, the LDPC decoder can also process two different codewords concurrently to increase throughput and datapath efficiency. After chip implementation, a 3.33Gb/s data rate is achieved with 8 decoding iterations in the 21.23mm2 0.18μm silicon area. The other 0.13μm chip with the 10.24mm2 core can further reach a 5.92Gb/s data rate under 1.02V supply.
