Warning over rogue drugs after woman found dead
Police have issued a warning about a "rogue" batch of drugs after a 36-year-old was found dead in a car park in Salisbury.
Emergency crews were called to Culver Street on Friday evening amid reports a woman had collapsed.
Wiltshire Police said the woman was pronounced dead at the scene and believe the deceased may have taken a quantity of contaminated heroin.
"I would of course urge everyone to steer well clear of any illegal drug use but following this tragic incident, we have concerns that there may be a quantity of contaminated heroin in our community which could have the potential to lead to further illness or death.
"We would like to reassure the local community that we are carrying out a detailed and robust investigation following this death and enquiries will be continuing.
"If anyone has any information on this incident, or is able to help us with inquiries to establish where these drugs have come from, please call us on 101 immediately. All information we receive will be treated in the strictest confidence. Alternatively, information can be given to Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800." 555 111."
Poor eyesight causes 3,000 accidents each year
Drivers in Wiltshire are being offered on-the-spot eye tests to ensure they are fit to drive. Police warn some drivers are failing to get their eyes tested regularly putting themselves and others in danger. Poor vision is estimated to cause nearly three thousand casualties on the roads every year.
Currently, drivers of cars, vans and motorbikes are only required to have their eyesight checked once, when they take their driving test, by reading a number-plate. Beyond this, when they hit age 70, drivers must simply declare their vision meets legal requirements. The project is a joint initiative between Wiltshire Sight, Wiltshire Police, Wiltshire Fire & rescue, Wiltshire Council, Swindon Borough Council, opticians Haine & Smith and ROSPA. Organisers say the aim is to highlight the importance of good eye health and getting your eyes tested and to reinforce the message that people need to stop driving if their eyesight is deteriorating and cannot be improved by corrective lenses.
The Campaign coincides with the clock change. Less hours of daylight has been shown to have a significant impact on road traffic accidents, as many journeys become more challenging in the dark whilst people adjust to the reflective glare from on-coming headlights.
The roadshows take place in · Salisbury - outside the Guildhall Tuesday 27th October · Swindon - Wharf Green 29th October
Cathedral full of flowers for Magna Carta celebrations
Salisbury Cathedral is no stranger to beautiful blooms, but this week it's full to the rafters of flowers and visitors who've been coming to see them.
They are there as part of celebrations to mark 800 years since the signing of the Magna Carta.
It is particularly poignant at the Cathedral which owns one of the four original surviving documents.
Watch Kerry Swain's report:
The view from Westminster as the abuse scandal continues.
As five forces investigate alleged abuse by former Prime Minister Edward Heath, what's the reaction in Westminster? Here's our interview with Political Correspondent Phi Hornby
Investigation grows into claims of historic abuse against former Prime Minister Edward Heath
In all, FIVE police forces are now looking into claims of historic abuse - Wiltshire, London, Kent, Jersey and now Hampshire. Meanwhile A woman jailed for running a brothel just a mile from the home of former Prime Minister Sir Edward Heath today broke her silence to DENY she was the person who had - allegedly - threatened to expose him as a child abuser. Myra Ling-Ling Forde had been named in national newspapers as the woman at the centre of the scandal. It had been claimed that in the early 1990s Wiltshire Police 'dropped' a case against her after Sir Edward's name was mentioned. Richard Slee reports

Peregrine lays eggs at Salisbury Cathedral
Salisbury Cathedral's peregrines are back and aPeregrines generally lay three to four eggs, which take approximately 30 days to incubate, so by mid-May we hope to have three or four youngsters in the nest.
Salisbury Cathedral's peregrines are back and are nesting again this year. At present the female is sitting on two eggs but staff at the Cathedral looking after the birds are expecting another one or two to be laid in the next few days.
Peregrines generally lay three to four eggs, which take approximately 30 days to incubate, so by mid-May we hope to have three or four youngsters in the nest. The successful breeding is the result of a four-year-long collaboration between staff at the Cathedral led by Clerk Of The Works, Gary Price, and Phil Sheldrake of the RSPB in Salisbury.
The breakthrough came last year when the peregrines set up home in a nesting box that was built especially for them by the Cathedral Works Department. The box kept the eggs safe and afforded the birds the privacy that they needed to bring up their young!
The breakthrough came last year when the peregrines set up home in a nesting box that was built especially for them by the Cathedral Works Department. The box kept the eggs safe and afforded the birds the privacy that they needed to bring up their young.
Clerk of Works Gary Price said
It looks as though these peregrines may be a fixture now which is incredibly exciting. Project Peregrine got off to a shaky start in 2013, when none of the eggs hatched, in 2014 there were three chicks and we managed to ring them. Now they are back again and settled. We learnt a lot from the last year and this year we're mounting the camera again so that we can share pictures with not only people visiting the tower on a tour but via the website.
This year two cameras have been positioned near the birds and events on and around the nest will be recorded. One camera is focused actually on the nest and one looks towards the parapet wall so that the parent birds can be seen coming into land and hopping down onto the nest to feed their young.
One screen at the top of the tower and a second screen in the cloisters will allow visitors to get a glimpse of life peregrine-style!
To protect the birds and allow them to rear their young in peace, the door to the cathedral balcony will be padlocked and when the little chicks are three weeks old they will be ringed by experts from the RSPB so that their subsequent movements can be tracked. They are expected to fledge in June.
It's a fantastic result, I was not expecting to see the first egg on Tuesday as the pair didn't lay until mid-April last year. It really is very exciting that we now have an established pair at the Cathedral, arguably one of the most charismatic birds at the probably the country's most magnificent Cathedral – quite a prestigious nest-address.
VIDEO: Robber armed with kitchen knife tasered by police at Co-op
Extraordinary footage has been released showing the moment police tasered an armed man trying to rob a village shop in Wiltshire.
James Lewis threatened staff at the Co-op in Shrewton - near Salisbury - with a ten-inch kitchen knife, before officers were able to overpower him. One had to use a shopping basket as a shield.
Today, Lewis, who's 22, was jailed for three years. Watch Malcolm Shaw's report.

Taylor Swiftĺs fans have done it again, voting her the American Music Awards artist of the year for a third time.
Swift won Sunday nightĺs top honor, giving her a leading four trophies as fans celebrated the women of pop music.
Swift didnĺt perform, but she was a constant presence on stage and the camera alighted on her as she danced to stars like Kendrick Lamar and Luke Bryan. Her win came after Katy Perry dazzled with her show-opening performance, Lady Gaga found another inventive way to grab your attention, Rihanna starred with her mother and Miley Cyrus closed performances with the assistance of a giant lip-syncing CGI kitty on her song ôWrecking Ball.ö
ôIĺm really out of breath,ö Swift said after taking the stage in a sequined mini-dress. ôI was really going hard with the ĹWrecking Ballĺ thing.ö
The 23-year-old pop star also won country album of the year for ôRedö and favorite female country and pop/rock artist.
ôĺRedĺ is very different than any album Iĺve made before and the reason I was able to do that was because of the fans,ö Swift said. ôI cannot believe what youĺve done in the last year. This album came out almost exactly a year ago and the fact that 6 million of you went out and bought it is crazy.ö
Justin Timberlake was next with three wins. One Direction and Macklemore & Ryan Lewis won two awards and Rihanna was given the AMAĺs first Icon Award to go with her win as favorite soul/R&B female artist.
Rihanna and her mother took center stage midway through the show when Monica Fenty presented her pop star daughter with the first Icon Award at the Nokia Theatre in Los Angeles.
ôCan we talk about how cute Rihannaĺs mom is?ö Justin Timberlake asked while accepting one of his three awards, before affecting a Caribbean accent. ôSheĺs so proud of the Icon. I am too, Rihanna, I love you.ö
Fenty told Rihanna how proud she was of her daughterĺs success, saying, ôI know the journey in your career has not always been an easy one.ö
ôJust about 20 years ago is when I really started making your life a living hell with my annoying little husky man voice, you would call it,ö Rihanna said. ôAnd I mean just disrupting the entire neighborhood. Westbury Road, Barbados, they could tell you thatĺs the truth. I annoyed every one of my neighbors.ö
She performed ôDiamondsö with an orchestra and took favorite soul/R&B female artist. Timberlake won soul/R&B album, soul/R&B male artist and pop/rock male artist.
Nickelodeon star Ariana Grande was named favorite new artist, Florida Georgia Line won single of the year for ôCruiseö with Nelly in something of a surprise, Luke Bryan won favorite male country artist, and favorite rap/hip-hop act Macklemore & Ryan Lewis used their rap/hip-hop album acceptance speech to send a message of tolerance.
Ben Haggerty, the rapper known as Macklemore, accepted the award for favorite rap/hip-hop album, then quoted Martin Luther King Jr. in a live satellite feed from the rap groupĺs latest tour stop.
ôDue to the fact that we are in Florida tonight accepting this award I want to acknowledge Trayvon Martin and the hundreds and hundreds of kids each year that are dying due to racial profiling and the violence that follows it,ö he said. ôThis is really happening. These are our friends, our neighbors, our peers and our fans, and itĺs time that we look out for the youth and fight against racism and the laws that protect it.ö
Florida became a focal point after Martinĺs killer was freed under the stateĺs stand your ground law. It was the first win of the night for Macklemore and Lewis, whose album ôThe Heistö has been an unexpected hit and made them the AMAĺs top nominees with six.
Katy Perry opened the show looking like a princess out of a classic Japanese painting. Dressed in a traditional Japanese dress, Perryĺs show-starting performance of ôUnconditionallyö included dozens of colorfully clad dancers waved fans, shadow danced in front of rice-paper screens and played the drums.
Perry was the early focus of the awards show, held at the Nokia Theatre in Los Angeles, arriving on the red carpet in a black strapless dress to screams from hundreds of fans. She said before the show she wanted to up her game, given the chance to open, and the whirling stage production was a wash of colors and movements before Perry disappeared in a puff of smoke.
One Direction was at times drowned out by screams during an understated performance of ôStory of My Life.ö The decibel level was that way from the moment the British boy band arrived on the carpet, all smiles and dapper suits. Harry Styles stopped to take a picture with three fans.
Timberlake strapped on an acoustic guitar and played a soulfully raucous version of ôDrink You Away.ö Macklemore crowd surfed on ôCanĺt Hold Us.ö Jennifer Lopez absolutely nailed the elaborate dance numbers during her tribute to Salsa queen Celia Cruz, taking two dozen dancers through their paces while wearing a shimmering silver dress.
She winked at the crowd as she finished the number, the dancers sprawled around her on the floor.
Lady Gaga and R. Kelly put on an elaborate production for their song ôDo What U Want,ö staging a presidential affair. Kelly played the president and Gaga a Marilyn Monroe-like mistress. Kelly gazed upward as Gaga table-danced on his desk, then stormed off the stage as an actor playing a reporter chased him asking about the affair.
And Cyrus shut things down with a performance that wasnĺt quite as over the top as her previous appearances this year but is likely to be talked about just as much. The camera stayed on Cyrus and the lip-syncing tabby throughout, and the cat ended the song by winking and sticking out its tongue Ś Cyrusĺ signature move.

Once again Misfitcon has occurred and once again it has had a profound effect on my life and all who took part.
A quiet morning has me reflecting on how much I love having stable and fast Internet in my house so that things run smoother.
Last night, I took part in a panel to discuss "The Once and Future PR Professional" put on by the Publicity Club of New England and hosted by SHIFT Communications. It was an intimate conversation that covered a lot of ground. I was honored to be on the panel with Steve Quigley from Boston University, Erica Seidel of...

There are many aspects OF who I am and what I do. Putting together THIS PAGE is one of my least favorite things to write, because talking about myself is not my idea of a fun time.
When asked what I do my current answer is, "I create, teach and motivate people to do more good in the world."
Of course, that doesn't cover all that I work on professionally and personally, so that is why I created this page.

I'm constantly writing and always working on my next book. You may have read some of my published works including Amazing Things Will Happen, Content Rules or 101 Steps to Making Video Like a Pro.
Freelance writing or citizen reporting assignments excite me.
If I had to choose a style, I'd say my photos are a mix of documentary, travel and lifestyle photography. While I may not enjoy taking head shots, I love to shoot faces. I rarely go anywhere without a camera in my hand and I've been fortunate to see my photos on the pages of Rolling Stone and The Wall Street Journal.
I'm currently shooting with a Samsung NX1 and a Chroma 4k Drone.
My photos can be found on Instagram, Flickr and 500px.
I'm happiest when on stage educating and inspiring an audience of any size, anywhere in the world.
I have spoken at everything from large international events, corporate retreats and at special gatherings of unique individuals. If you need someone who will inspire, educate and entertain your audience I'd love to chat.
I believe in using my skills, time and voice to champion causes that are important to me. I'm especially interested in anything military, dogs or children focused.

Tattoos, travel and the outdoors turn me on. There are fewer things more perfect than a well done cocktail, a delicious meal or live art of any sort. I love my GORUCK, Field Notes and am a proud Misfit.
To understand me is to understand that I try to live a purposeful life every day that is full of adventure, love and making the world around me a better place for all.
C.C. Chapman describes himself as a New England raised storyteller, explorer and humanitarian. Others have described him as a thought leader in the online marketing space, a grounded futurist and one the nicest guy on the Internet. Over the years of his career he has worked with a variety of clients including Nike, HBO, American Eagle Outfitters, ONE, Verizon FiOS and The Coca-Cola Company.
He is the co-author of the International bestseller Content Rules and is also the author of Amazing Things Will Happen. He travels the world speaking in front of audiences to do more in the world and how to understand content marketing better. C.C. has taught classes for Lynda.com, CreativeLive and now as an adjunct professor at Bentley University (where he also graduated from).
C.C. is an advocate who speaks about building passionate communities and the strategic values of content-based marketing. He is a Samsung Imagelogger, the original ONE Dad and a UN Foundation Social Good Fellow. As a storyteller for hire, his work has appeared on the pages of Rolling Stone and The Wall Street Journal.
C.C. serves as the Chairman of the Board at Wediko and serves on the board of The Hockey Foundation. He happily lives in the woods outside of Boston with his loving family. Find out more at CC-Chapman.com
You'd be hard-pressed to find a more multi-faceted or enthusiastic creative/strategic partner in the marketing and content creation fields. This greatly hails from C.C.'s unstoppable combination of marketing experience and savvy (which a great many professionals claim to have), and incalculably valuable "on the ground" knowledge and insight as an influential content creator himself (which a great many professionals do not). The result is a best-of-both-worlds mashup of marketing expertise.
C.C. Chapman sports the pro cred to be a talker (working closely with such clients as American Eagle Outfitters, Coca-Cola, HBO and Warner Bros.), and the passion and gumption to be a doer (creating content for the emerging Online Dad market, marketing professionals, music fans and more). He's helped create, manage and execute ambitious online and offline marketing campaigns for startups and multinationals — and has the invaluable good sense to know which outreach strategies work with audiences, and which ones fall flat.
He authoritatively speaks your language. He speaks your CMO's language. Most important, he's fluent in your market's language. It's a killer double-chocolate-and-peanut-butter combination. Contact C.C. to learn how he can help your organization achieve its business goals. There's even more to know about C.C. Chapman, if you want to read it — and you should. C.C.'s skills are an embarrassment of riches.
I'm involved with a lot of organizations and clients. I believe in being completely transparent and open about everything I'm working on. I'll do my best to keep this updated and of course will clearly disclose relationships in any post that require them.
I am open to being pitched and invited on press trips.
Companies do send me items in the hopes that I will review it or share with my community. If you send me something it does not guarantee a review.

Pretty Nails & Champagne — It's That Kind Of Thursday
Check out your nails. How's that polish lookin'? If you don't have a time for a full-blown manicure before launching into your Labor Day weekend festivities, stop by Space519 after work tonight. The urban general store of sorts is hosting a fall collection preview party for luxe nail-polish brand RGB.
If you haven't yet familiarized yourself with this polish, please do. RGB sees nail color as "an extension of one's wardrobe," and really considers it an accessory just as much as handbag. They don't try too hard with names, either. What you read on the bottom of the tiny bottle is what you get. You definitely know what you're getting into long before the first coat even has a chance to dry. A couple of other pluses for this polish: the high-shine formula is chip-resistant and free of chemicals.
But don't take our word for it. Have nail artist Astrowifey provide you with a complimentary polish change and see for yourself. And while she's working on one hand, keep the other one free for holding a flute of bubbles. Who said the weekend starts tomorrow?
What: RGB Fall 2012 Collection Preview
When: Thursday, August 30 from 4 to 7 p.m.
Where: Space519, 900 North Michigan Avenue (between Walton and Delaware), 312-751-1519.

The top two finishers at the 2011-12 Stanislaus County Elementary Spelling Championship, held Wednesday at Gregori High School in Modesto, hailed from Turlock Unified District Schools, fifth grader Joven Hundal goes to Julien and sixth grader Avery Owen attends Walnut.

The Kiwanis Club of Greater Turlock delivered 650 Halloween pumpkins to Cunningham Elementary School in Turlock on Friday.

Jean Hardwick (Biology) has been awarded a NIH research grant
Contributed by Nancy Pierce on 04/28/2016
Jean Hardwick, Professor of Biology, was a awarded a 3 year research grant (~$365,000) from the National Institute of Health to support her research on the role of neuropeptides in the remodeling of the cardiac nervous system with heart disease. Hardwick and her students are examining the changes induced by chronic heart disease in an animal model of myocardial infarction (or a heart attack) to determine how specific signaling molecules are changing and whether these changes are contributing to the pathology of the disease, or acting to improve cardiac function. The NIH grant, which will begin later this summer, will allow the lab to purchase new equipment for sophisticated electrical recordings from neurons, as well as funding student research opportunities during the summers.

Yes, those are Lancaster native Dondraico Johnson's dance moves in the summer blockbuster "Ghostbusters."
The 36-year-old choreographer mapped out scenes involving up to 150 actors and and even got to appear on screen himself.
Johnson, who has worked on many movies and TV shows since moving to Hollywood, said it was tremendous fun working with stars Melissa McCarthy, Kristen Wiig, Kate McKinnon and Leslie Jones, as well as director Paul Feig.
Richard Wagner of Colorado and Bridgett Miller of Spartanburg announce the engagement of their daughter, Carmisha Ne'Shel Miller, to Jared Larnel White, both of Spartanburg.
The wedding is planned for Sept. 17, 2016, at Foster Grove Baptist Church in Chesnee.
On July 16, my husband, Tim, was cutting the grass at First Presbyterian Church on Main Street in Lancaster. While he was working on the lower part of the yard, out of sight from his truck and other equipment, someone stole his commercial push mower, which cost him $1,276 three years ago. You have to cut a lot of grass to earn that much money!
Timbo Mangum pulled away from Benji Knight to grab the checkers in SECA Crate Late Model action at Lancaster Super Speedway on July 9.
The win was Mangum's second of the night, as he also won the Vintage Division feature.
When the green flag dropped, Mangum, Knight, Manley Chaney and Travis Steele were all battling for the lead. Mangum was able to lead the four down the backstretch, with Knight in his tire tracks.
Floyd "Billy" Foster Sr. and Rachel White Foster celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary on July 2, 2016.

Lancaster Super Speedway will host the third-annual Ralph W. "Buddy" Crook Memorial on July 16.
Known as one of the area's most popular and respected dirt racers by fans and fellow drivers alike, Crook raced in several divisions, including hobby six cylinders, four cylinders at the high-banked, half-mile dirt track for more than three decades. He died in February 2014 after a battle with cancer and the memorial race is held in his honor.
Mr. and Mrs. James Daryl Roney announce the engagement of their daughter, Chelsea Lauren Roney, to Justin Devin Arant, all of Lancaster.
The wedding is planned for 7 p.m. July 29, 2016, at Carnes Lake.
Miss Roney is the granddaughter of Bill and Sherry Outen, the late Bronna Ackerman and the late George and Frances Roney. She is a 2009 graduate of Lancaster High School and a graduate of York Technical College. She is a medical office assistant at New Day Family Medicine.
YORK – The Lancaster Dixie Baseball 14U Dixie Boys All Stars outscored and outpitched the Kershaw County American League All Star team, as well as host York, to take two lopsided weekend wins in the 2016 S.C. District 10 Dixie Boys tournament.
In Saturday's opening game, Lancaster topped the Kershaw stars 15-2.
Sunday night's game, the local Dixie Baseball team pounded York 28-0.
The Lancaster stars were scheduled to face York again Tuesday night in the District 10 championship; however, those results were not available before press time.
Inman's American Legion Post 45 swept Lancaster's Post 31 this week in three straight games during the second round of the S.C. American Legion Upper State baseball playoffs.
On Tuesday night in Lancaster, Inman shut down Lancaster for an 11-0 win.
Then on Wednesday, Post 45 won a two-day rain-delayed deadlocked game, 5-4, on a single by Hunter Gneisig in the bottom of the 10th inning.
Post 31 never got a chance to swing a bat in the delayed part of the contest, since Inman was the home team.
A late-afternoon thunderstorm in the area forced the Monster Mini Stocks Association to postpone the July 16 running of the third-annual Buddy Crook Memorial at Lancaster Super Speedway until later this month.
A four-cylinder race car series, the MMSA races at various dirt tracks in the Carolinas and Georgia. The $2,500 event here is one of the highest-paying stops on the series tour.

Saturday, December 3rd will be thes 20th International Day of Persons with Disabilities. This international day of observance promotes recognition of the rights, inherent dignity, and inclusion of people with disability. It gives us an opportunity to join with people around the world to renew our shared commitment to ensuring that people with disabilities realize human and civil rights. It reminds us that there remains work to be done here and abroad.
The United States has been a leader in ending discrimination and exclusion of people with disabilities and our strong body of civil rights laws, including Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 (Section 504), the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) have been models for laws in other countries, evidenced in DREDF's Directory of National Disability Non-Discrimination Laws.
How can this be relevant to studying piano? It is actually quite simple: not everyone who studies piano will be the winner of the Van Clyburn Competition. Not everyone can be the best. But everyone, regardless of abilities or disabilities, can do one's best.

Sharing Risk Through Concession Contracts
In this paper we model concession contracts between a public and a private party, under dynamic uncertainty arising both from the volatility of the cash flow generated by the project and by the strategic behaviour of the two parties. Under these conditions we derive three notions of equilibrium price and apply the model to a case study for one of the most important concession contracts in Italy.

If you are playing in a campaign wherein you can get items created for you (using the Core Rules Magic Item Creation section), you could get an item that could cast the spell twice a day for only a bit more than the wand:

Kizer's (One Butt Cheek at a Time) sophomore outing, an urban fantasy, has intriguing premise: on her 16th birthday Meridian Sozu learns that she is a Fenestra, a human of angelic descent who acts as a "window" for souls passing to the afterlife. She is vulnerable to the malicious Nocti, who steal life energy and send souls to hell. Sent to her great-aunt Merry's house in Revelation, Colo., Meridian begin to learn how to survive and fulfill her purpose from Merry and her eventual love interest, Tens. But time is short, and the sinister Reverend Perimo is orchestrating an effort to drive Fenestra "witchcraft" out of Revelation. Kizer's ear for teenage dialogue doesn't fail, and despite numerous deus ex machina plot weaknesses, the fast pace keeps the story compelling. Less appealing are the murky metaphysics, the attribution of tragedies like Nazi atrocities to Nocti interference and the fact that souls' fates are subject to the whims and proximity of Nocti or Fenestra, rather than human choices or behavior. Ages 12—up. (Aug.)

Half-human, half-angel, Meridian Sozu has a dark responsibility.
Sixteen-year-old Meridian has been surrounded by death ever since she can remember. As a child, insects, mice, and salamanders would burrow into her bedclothes and die. At her elementary school, she was blamed for a classmate's tragic accident. And on her sixteenth birthday, a car crashes in front of her family home—and Meridian's body explodes in pain.
Before she can fully recover, Meridian is told that she's a danger to her family and hustled off to her great-aunt's house in Revelation, Colorado. It's there that she learns that she is a Fenestra—the half-angel, half-human link between the living and the dead. But Meridian and her sworn protector and love, Tens, face great danger from the Aternocti, a band of dark forces who capture vulnerable souls on the brink of death and cause chaos.

I got up the morning of December twenty-first anticipating a four-day weekend for the Christmas holiday. I went to a snotty private prep school that took breaks the way most people went to the dentist—?only when they really, really had to.
Which was why I had school on the twenty-first, my sixteenth birthday. My parents refused to let me skip. It was a typical, normal day. For me "normal" meant that my stomach churned so much I swallowed Tums by the roll, and never went anywhere without Advil. I used Visine to keep my eyes clear; without it, looking in the mirror meant seeing the eyes of a lifetime alcoholic. I kept a stash of Ace bandages and braces in my locker at school.
I coped. I studied. I kept up the facade, but I desperately needed a break. Time to sleep late. Time to eat too much and catch up on painting my nails with glitter. Time to stop faking it and be myself, even if no one noticed. Time to dye my hair again—currently it was the obnoxious red of tomato juice. I figured black would be a nice way to start the New Year. It fit my mood. There were also a bunch of new DVDs I wanted to watch. Movies about girls my age having crushes and friends and being absolutely, completely normal.
I tucked my requisite white cotton blouse into my perfectly pleated tartan skirt. I applied thick black eyeliner and threecoats of mascara, as if I could make the bruises beneath my eyes an accessory, then painted on clear lip gloss. I tugged at the opaque tights I wore, pushing our dress code to the limit. I didn't mind uniforms. At least I was part of a group for once in my life. But I hated looking like a little Lolita. I stared at my reflection, hoping to see answers. Wishing I saw the solution to my life.
The phone shrilled: once, twice. I tossed my toothbrush into the sink and grabbed the hallway extension. The phone never rang for me, but I always answered it, hoping.
Silence. Breathing. Murmuring.
"Hello?" I repeated.
Mom appeared at the top of the stairs. "Who is it?" Concern deepened the lines on her face, aging her.
I shrugged at her, shook my head. "Hello?"
She yanked the phone cord out of the wall, breathing fast, suddenly wild-eyed and pale.
Dad raced up the stairs, clearly just as upset. "Another one?"
Mom's fist clenched the cord and she fiercely wrenched me into her arms. What the hell?
"What's going on?" I let her hold me as she caught her breath. My dad kept petting my hair. For the last five years, they hadn't touched me except for accidents or unavoidables. Now they didn't seem to want to let go.
"It's started." Dad was the first to step away.
"What's started?" I pushed away as the downstairs phone rang.
"We'll talk more after school. You have a big test today." I recognized the stubborn expression on Mom's face.
Dad pressed her shoulders, rubbed her neck like he always did when she was upset. "I think we should—"
"No, not yet. Not yet," Mom chanted.
"What is going on?" I felt fear sizzle in my spine.
"Rosie?—" Dad cradled Mom's cheek with one hand and reached for me.
"After school," Mom said firmly. "Be careful today, extra careful."
"Why don't you tell me why?" I asked. "Is this about turning sixteen? I can wait to get my license for a few months. I mean, I'd like to drive, but if you're this scared we can talk about it."
Mom smoothed my hair, shaking her head. "After school."
I shrugged and looked to my father for guidance. His expression told me he wouldn't break rank. "Is it boys? I'm not dating; it's not like there's a guy—"
Mom cut me off. "Do you want pancakes?"
I never eat breakfast. "No, that's okay. I should catch the bus or I'll be late." What else can there be? My grades are excellent.
"Mer-D!" Sammy launched himself at me. As a toddler he'd given me a nickname that stuck, so even now that he was six, I was still his Mer-D. "Happy birthday! I got you a presie. I got you a presie. Wanna know? Wanna know?" He danced with a maple syrup–covered fork, Jackson Pollocking every surface with stickiness.
"Later, Sammy. After school, okay? With cake?" I adored him. Loved him with the unconditional love I'd never received, except from him. He wasn't afraid of me. He'd pretend to blow up the dead things with his Lego men or pose them in little forts, like caricatures of life.
"Cake, cake, makey-cakey." He pranced around, his face split in a grin.
Turning back to my mom, "Why are you so freaked?" I dropped my voice so Sammy wouldn't hear me.
Dad answered for her. "There is something we need to discuss when you get home, but it can wait."
"Are you sure?" I pressed. I hadn't ever seen either of them this anxious.
"You don't want to miss your bus." Mom hovered. She'd been swinging from overprotective to distant for the past few months. There was an almost tangible distance between us. I'd catch her scrutinizing me, like she was trying to memorize my DNA.
"You have everything you need?" She stared at me, patted my hair, and tucked an errant curl behind my ear. She always made me want to shake my head and mess up my curls even more. Mom gave me a pathetic, sad smile. She didn't say anything else.
"Fine. Yep." I shrugged her off, marching out of the kitchen feeling like a kid at an adults-only party, pissed that they wouldn't just tell me what was going on. Secrets made me feel small and insignificant. There was a vibe I couldn't place. I slid my backpack on.
Dad strode out from the kitchen. "Meridian, wait." He drew me to him, hugging me so tight that breathing was a challenge.
"Dad?" I leaned away, confused.
At least Sammy wasn't acting strange. He was playing with the Lego set he'd opened the day before, on his birthday. My mom, brother, and I were all born within a day or two of one another.

Meridian is a teenage girl who has seen a lot of death in her almost sixteen years. It has been a constant companion for her and she has no idea why - even small animals seem to die when they are near her. She spends most of her young life being feared by the kids around her, but that all changes as her 16th birthday nears. On her way home from school, a tragic accident happens and she is forced to flee. She goes one way and her family another. She is sent to live with her namesake, an aunt whom she only knows from the quilts that she sent for all of Meridian's birthdays. Once there she meets Tens, a mysterious boy who also lives with her aunt. Meridian is told that she is Fenestra, a descendant of Angels who sends souls on their way to the afterlife. She must learn to control her ability, because there are those who would use it against her. Let me first say that I thoroughly enjoyed this book. The mythology of this story was entirely new for me as a reader. I felt that it was well thought out, had interesting characters, and kept me enthralled for the entire book. While I did enjoy everything about this book, I wish there had been more back-story on Tens. I read that there is another book coming out and I hope it turns into a series, because it would be a definite auto-buy for me.
Meridian is one of those rare books that stay with you long after you've read the last page. Amber Kizer brilliantly displays her talent for weaving together a compelling story, intriguing characters, and descriptions so vivid that you'd swear you're standing next to Meridian Sozu herself. Laced gracefully throughout the book are reflections on the gift of life and the comfort that we are not alone at the end of it. Where Meridian's destiny will take her next is a mystery-one that readers will await with great anticipation.
Love story mixed within a fight of good and evil. Only released last month. I chose this book because it appeared when I made online orders as "bought by people who bought what you are buying". I read the online excerpts and was already hooked. I've just finished it and it didn't really end on the last page; it's actually part of a series that is just starting (next one due out in 2011; I had no idea until I had finished the first book). Religious and spiritual undertones that will have you examining your own beliefs. Invented beings I have never heard of before.
amazing wish there was more than two the books r truly amazing for young adults
When i first read the synopsis of this book i thought it sounded really interesting and different from anything else i had read. Not to knock the book or anything because everyone likes different things but i didnt find this book very interesting at all. The whole time i was reading it i felt like i kept waiting for something to happen but it just never did...I felt like it had a really cool out there concept but the whole story was kinda half way there...like the author never took it to the level i was expecting. I didnt connect with any of the characters or the world the author was trying to portray. It definately had its moments but i wont be eagerly awaiting the sequel...ill probably just pass altogether
Loved this book. It just kept me at the edge of my seat. I thought I knew what was going and then the story line changes. Wow.
I really could not get into this book, but I finished it anyway. I think its really silly to review a book you didnt finish because I have read books that took a while to pick up. This one didnt, well not for me anyway. I liked Meridian's character, but I think I am still a bit confused as to why Tens didnt like her to start. The writing is good and the plot was okay.
Its interesting.
Amber kizer you read a lot about angel felt most angel based on the myths and legend not more on the stareo type but you read more myth and legend and change a little a to add teast to the stroy i wish the book was longer and more books in the series plese write more you will love book
Interesting plot. Kept me turning the pages.

How Pikes Peak will influence 2015 Mitsubishi Lancer EVO successor
The 2015 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution is going away after this generation model finishes production next year in August. How will Pikes Peak influence its successor?
The 2015 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution is going away after this generation model finishes production next year in August. How will Pikes Peak influence its successor?
Will America's most affordable EV, the all-new 2014 Mitsubishi i-MiEV be a hit here in the U.S. market?
There's good news and bad news for Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution fans around the globe. In many markets outside of the U.S., production of the Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution model ceases in June 2014.
Mitsubishi as a company is going through lots of changes and it shows up in the all-new 2014 Outlander SUV.
With the exception of the low-volume Toyota RAV4 EV, every plug-in vehicle currently on the market is a sedan or hatchback.
The 2015 Mitsubishi Lancer EVO will begin production in July, 2014, and this will be the last EVO for the generation X model here in the U.S. In many markets outside of the U.S.
The 2014 Mitsubishi i-MiEV isn't just about saving the planet, it's also about saving buyers dollars. The 2014 Mitsubishi i-MiEV arrives this spring here in the U.S.
Mitsubishi is determined to rebrand their image completely and have said they will drop the 2015 Lancer Evolution after this model year.
You can order the all-new 2015 Subaru WRX STI now, and the last-generation 2015 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution will be launching later this year.
Mitsubishi is getting ready to start a slow descent downward if they pull the plug on the Lancer EVO X. But all reports tell us that Mitsubishi will end production of the EVO X.
The Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution X is an iconic car in the UK and around the globe and it's making a return in a big way to UK.
The 2015 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution will be coming to the U.S. market and production will start in July 2014. That's what we know for sure about the high-performance model from Mitsubishi.
We thought that the next-generation 2016 Mitsubishi Lancer EVO XI may not even make it to production and that Mitsubishi was thinking of axing the performance car.
Nissan and Mitsubishi have had a cooperative agreement for some time, resulting most recently in the new Nissan Dayz and Mitsubishi eK vehicles that entered the Japanese market this year.
It looks like the future of Mitsubishi is going to be filled with some exciting new SUVs and a new design language for the brand. Mitsubishi may be getting ready to explode around the globe.

Longtime East Lawrence business Miracle Video closing
Soon, the corner of 19th and Haskell won't be quite so miraculous.
The owner of the longtime East Lawrence fixture Miracle Video has announced the store will close by the end of the year.
"It is just the changing nature of distribution," said owner Don Jochems. "There is so much Red Box, Netflix, Internet streaming. I personally feel people are trading quality for convenience. It is the same thing that has happened with record shops and bookstores."
Jochems thinks the video store, 1910 Haskell Ave., has been in business for about 25 years, although he admits that with dates, he's kind of like Nicolas Cage with a monologue — not good.
If you remember, Miracle Video actually started out in North Lawrence in a tiny, tiny building next to one of the gas stations on North Second Street. (VHS players were almost bigger than the building back in those days.) Then the store expanded over to the East Lawrence corner of 19th and Haskell about 15 years ago, Jochems estimates.
"When the business first started, I didn't know a single person who owned a VCR, and a lot of them cost $600 or more to buy," said Jochems, who has owned the business for the last eight years but managed it for about 15 years prior.
Then video stores started popping up everywhere. But technology has caused the industry to shift again, and now the industry has become a bit like a Kevin Costner accent — tough to recognize. Jochems said to his knowledge the only true video stores left in town are Family Video at 23rd and Louisiana, Hastings at 23rd and Iowa, and the granddaddy of the Lawrence video scene, Liberty Hall in downtown.
Jochems notes the Lawrence Public Library has become a pretty big player in the video market too, although he said he doesn't think that has had much of an impact on his business.
"That really has always been for more of the library crowd," Jochems said.
That perhaps isn't the best way to describe Miracle Videos' niche. It carried new releases like everybody else, but Jochems said the store always tried to be a leader in carrying off beat films and cult classics. Plus, let's not ignore the elephant in the room any longer, the store also had a reputation of being one of the larger adult video stores in the city, Jochems said.
"People wanted it, so we carried it," Jochems said.
Jochems said the store could close as early as Dec. 1. He said part of it will be dependent on how quickly the store sells its inventory. He estimates there are 15,000 movies that have been part of his rental inventory that he is now putting up for sale, with prices starting at a dollar for many titles.
"It is a sad note, but I'm a little relieved that I've made the decision," said Jochems, who isn't sure what he'll do in the future. "I just don't see it getting better at this point, unless there is some sort of miraculous thing like how vinyl records got popular with the kids again."
In other news and notes around town:
• For all you K-10 commuters, If news of Miracle Video's closing has left your stomach feeling like the plot of an Adam Sandler movie — empty — there's news on the fast food front. McDonald's will be opening its new store along Kansas Highway 10 in De Soto on Thursday morning. A spokesman with Lawrence-based Dobski & Associates — the owner of the McDonald's store — said the restaurant will open at 12:01 a.m. on Thursday morning. The new 89-seat restaurant — which replaces a 22-year old McDonald's restaurant — will have dual drive-thru lanes and a more modern design.

Lawrence-based Dobski & Associates to tear down, rebuild De Soto McDonald's
This is fair warning to all you K-10 commuters who may stop at the McDonald's in De Soto to get your morning caffeine fix: By Thursday morning, the restaurant will be rubble. (Perhaps like you without caffeine.)
Lawrence-based Dobski & Associates, the owner of the area McDonald's franchise, has confirmed it will tear down the De Soto store on Thursday morning and begin building a larger McDonald's that is expected to open in late September.
The new store will have seating for 89 people, up from 40 in the current restaurant. Other design features:
• Free Wi-Fi Internet service and a host of electrical outlets designed for customers to recharge their laptops.
• A side-by-side double drive-thru window system to increase drive-thru capacity.
• A special third window designed to serve customers who have to wait for a special order. (Perhaps caffeine-laced french fries. They can't do that, can they?)
Michael Dobski, owner/operator of the De Soto location and son of Dobski & Associate founders Tom and Marilyn Dobski, said the De Soto restaurant was 22 years old and the decision was made that the restaurant needed an expansion and update.
The store has about 30 employees, and Dobski spokesman Patrick Manning said those employees will be transferred to other Dobski-owned McDonald's restaurants during the construction period.
The new restaurant will be on the same site as the current McDonald's, which is along Kansas Highway 10, just east of the primary De Soto interchange.
