The Buffalo Bills made one of the biggest splashes in free agency by signing two-time Pro Bowl defensive end Mario Williams to a six-year, $100 million contract. Buffalo's defensive line is now one of the best in the NFL with Williams and defensive tackles Marcell Dareus and Kyle Williams.
But who will fill the open spot opposite Mario Williams in Buffalo's new 4-3 defense? Here are the candidates:
1. Chris Kelsay
Analysis: Kelsay is a nine-year veteran who might be able to step in -- at least for the short term. He's 32 and had some injuries last season, missing four games. Can Kelsay hold up for 16 games at a more physically-demanding position? Last season he was an outside linebacker in Buffalo's 3-4 defense. Despite injuries, Kelsay still managed to have a decent season with 41 tackles and five sacks. The defense overall seems to play better when he's in the lineup. Kelsay also is one of the leaders in the locker room.
2. Draft pick
Analysis: Buffalo is fortunate that the draft this year is stocked with talented defensive ends. Quinton Coples of North Carolina, Melvin Ingram of South Carolina, Whitney Mercilus of Illinois, Andre Branch of Clemson ... the list goes on. The Bills hold the No. 10 overall pick, and drafting a defensive end in the first round is certainly an option. I think a good plan would be to start Kelsay, and within the first two rounds, draft a defensive end that can be molded into a starter.
Analysis: Merriman is another candidate, but he certainly has question marks. For starters, he had another season-ending Achilles injury. He expects to play next season, but he is not the explosive player he was when he first entered the NFL with the San Diego Chargers. Secondly, Merriman played most of his career as an outside linebacker in a 3-4 defense. Most believe it's easier to make the transition back to a 4-3 defensive end, but it would be a transition for Merriman nonetheless.

Welcome to the Crazy Crafters / Pootlers Blog Hop for December. This month we are excited to show off our "2016 Occasions / Saleabration Sneak Peeks". We hope you find great inspiration from the projects. You may just be starting the blog hop here at my blog or may have come from the person previous to me. Be sure to click on the next button further down to continue your journey on this blog hop. My name is Kathleen - aka lilypopcrafts and I am a Pootler, and I'm really excited to be taking part with Kylie's team of Cray Crafters!
Our theme was set by Sam Hammond Donald - aka Pootles, and it was 'One'. One set of DSP, one stamp set, one punch, one die etc, etc
I decided to go with the Love Blossoms range for my project, and I used the Bloomin' Heart Thinlits, Bloomin' Love stamp set, Love Blossoms DSP, Love Blossoms Cardstock Pack (3 colours in one item, fab!), Love Blossoms Embellishment Kit (tons in one kit!), and Rose Red ink and I just had to add our new Wink of Stella pen.
This was actually a bit of a labour of love in itself - I'd used the thinlit for another project I was making, and kept eyeing up the negative that was left over. I decided to have a wee play, and use not only the main negative of the heart, but all of the 'bits' too..............yes, I did say it was a labour of love didn't I? Anyway, it really didn't take that long and I'm really happy with how it came out ;-)
So as well as using the negative of the die cut, I stamped the outline flowers into some of the negative space...
Used some of the sequins, pearl trim and bows from the embellishment kit...
I cut some of the pearls from the trim and popped them into the middle of the sequins, to add a bit of dimension. Stamped my sentiment onto a strip of the DSP, pennanted the end and stapled it on. I did colour the staple gold (with a sharpie pen) to match the gold paperclip, but that's just me ;-)
I'd love to hear your comments or feel free to ask any questions that you may have!
Happy crafting!

The early detection of invading viruses by the host depends on a limited number of intracellular receptors that sense conserved structural components of viruses and subsequently initiate signaling cascades leading to IFN-1/2 induction. Retinoic acid-inducible gene I (RIG-I) has emerged as a key cytosolic receptor for sensing RNA viruses, including influenza virus and hepatitis C virus. In addition, tripartite motif (TRIM) proteins, containing a RING domain with potential ubiquitin E3 ligase activity, represent a novel class of anti-viral molecules involved in innate immunity. On the other hand, many viruses have evolved sophisticated mechanisms to counteract host protective IFN-mediated anti-viral pathways. Despite the recent rapid progress in deciphering molecular components in the RIG-I signaling pathway, the regulation of its anti-viral activity has not been well studied. However, it is exactly the regulation of the host IFN production, which dictates the outcome of the viral infection and pathogenesis. Our preliminary studies have demonstrated that the interconnection between the cytosolic sensor RIG-I and a member of the TRIM family creates a potent intracellular host defense mechanism required for type I IFN induction upon viral infection. RIG-I undergoes robust Lys 63- linked ubiquitination induced by TRIM25, enabling RIG-I to interact with the CARD-containing adaptor MAVS, and thereby triggering anti-viral signal transduction to limit viral replication. The proposed study is directed toward investigating how the host innate immune system recognizes virus infection and triggers IFN responses, with a specific focus on RIG-I and TRIM25 proteins. Biochemical, cell biological and structural studies will focus on defining how posttranslational modifications affect the RIG-I signaling activity to limit viral replication (Aim 1). This study will further detail the mechanisms by which influenza A virus NS1 counteracts the RIG-I/TRIM25 signaling pathway and its role for the pathogenesis of influenza virus infection in vivo (Aim 2). Insights gained from this study will not only illuminate new views on the regulatory networks of innate immunity, but also delineate the molecular mechanisms underlying host-viral interaction, thereby providing foundations for developing novel therapeutic strategies for emerging virus- associated disorders.
Despite the recent rapid progress in deciphering the signaling pathways involved in anti- viral innate immunity, the regulation of key defense molecules has not been well studied. The proposed study will delineate the molecular mechanisms how host detects viral infections and thereby initiates intracellular signal transduction to establish IFN-mediated anti-viral status. Furthermore, this study will give detailed insights into viral immune evasion strategies, which may ultimately contribute to the establishment of novel therapeutic approaches for emerging virus-associated disorders.

Comments: I own about 8 of these & can't imagine having anything else on my setups. They are made with high quality neoprene, the stitching is amazing & they are quick and easy to put on & off. I'm curious why you don't see more of these promoted everywhere because AI has created the best game in town. Love this product & everything I put together a new combo this is always my next purchase.
From: Dan: USA 8/31/16
Comments: Buying high end rods and reels and using them in the saltwater world is touch and go. I don't have a "rod locker" on my 26' charter boat, but I do have designated vertical rod racks where my "personal" combo's stand, and these rod covers with the reel cover built in is what I've always looked for. They really protect my precious custom Zillion reels and Phenix rods..so much that at the bait shop people ask me, what I'm hiding under those rod covers. Top of the line product for the person who takes care of their tackle.
From: Capt Dave Sipler: Jacksonville, FL 5/20/15
Comments: Got one of these in to try. Great quality, easy to put on, I really like the concept. However, I got the 7'6" model and it would not fit all the way down on my 7'2" Cumara. The reel cover was about 1" too short. It fits fine on my 6'9" to 7' rods. I wish they made a longer one.
From: Ron: Memphis, TN 1/25/15
Comments: My sister-in-law bought 5 (3 casting, 2 spinning) of these for me for Christmas and my first impression is just WOW!! They seem to be quality made with high end material and craftsmanship. They fit like a glove and look extremely nice on my setups. They will work on a left handed retrieve, but you'll have to turn the reel backwards on the rod. Not quite the ideal situation, but it only takes a couple of seconds to turn the reel back around and start fishing. I have not had them out in the field yet, but I can tell that they will definitely do the job. I have since ordered 6 more. Highly recommend that you try these, you will not be disappointed.
From: Steven: Sterling, VA 12/31/14
Comments: This is one if the best things ever invented! I can carry more than one rod in my hand and don't have to worry about them getting tangled up!!!
From: Tony: Orlando, FL
Comments: Hands down the best way to protect your equipment. The neoprene works great and it looks good on the rod. Great Customer service and look forward to new products in the future!
From: Chris: Orlando, FL
Comments: The best rod jacket out there it protects everything. These are made to last!!! Buy it you won't regret it. I have four now. You will recommend them to your buddies.
From: Steve: Waller, TX
Comments: I really like these rod jackets. They do a great job in protecting your rods and reels. Now I don't use my rod storage rack in my boat. The only thing is the short size is really short. A 6' 8" rods fits tight. Order the 7'-7'6" size and protect your equipment.

Age of Conan comes to mind. One of the better MMO's in general IMO. Maybe even The Secret World? I don't have much experience with this one so not sure.
A necromancer can run with all pets out through Cimmeria. Anyone who read the books knows this man would be killed on the spot and the ashes of his body cast to the 4 winds.
Since they called this the Age of Conan, this means they aren't remotely serious about game lore. Priests of Mitra can group with the enemies of mankind, i.e., Priests of Set and kill their own. Nothing serious or intelligent about this at all. They sould have called the game inspired by stories similar to the Conan world.
Luckily for them, they banked on the fact that most gamers who play the game probably don't read the novels.
How would you propose a proper implementation in an MMO environment? A pet mechanic (that does fit lore) being available at all times is expected in a game.
The Priest's of Mitra, and of set thing is based on a design decision that was chosen due to a big part of REH lore, there were plenty of Stygians, Vanir, Aquilonions, Shemites, Kushites, Argossians, Zingarians, etc..etc.etc.. That travelled to far away lands, and banded with far away peoples. A hard coded faction system would have been a far more lore breaking thing.
Also originally there was a faction (probably for people just like you) PVP server, it disappeared along with many others.

The Secret World.
You want a game world where the designers keep things internally consistent, take the lore, the characters, the stories, etc seriously... Or if you want a game where the developers/designers respect the intelligence of their players and don't coddle them through every little thing, or a game with a very wide-open character development system... TSW is a great choice.

I would love to see the folks at CCP bring their style of Sandbox player centric gaming to an IP like Game of Thrones or Wheel of Time. Both of those IP with the EVE style would be awesome.
I have a soap box and I am not afraid to use it.

Nothing serious here at all.
Very dishonest, or clearly misinformed answer.
The PvP in TSW is based around "The Secret War", which is supported quite well by lore within the game.
Just read up on "The Council of Venice", as it explains a bit of why the combat is setup as it is and why you don't see the factions "fighting it out in the streets".
There are even missions in the game wherein the storylines of each Faction overlap, giving you an idea of things that are happening behind the scenes. One of the earliest is the "Into Darkness" mission. Depending on which faction you do it as, your experience is a bit different, and you see (or cause) the effects of how the other two will experience it.
So, yes... it is taken quite serious, and is woven seamlessly into the setting.

You only found that of late?
The western world left serious and mature entertainment/content sometimes during the 70's

Almost every game has some sort of silly, outlandish, or comical element because that is part of reality too.

Nothing serious here at all.
Note: I've seen people put in some attempts at pointing out something serious in the industry, but all I see are very lackluster F2P games. I'd personally suggest Dark Age of Camelot, but they are so aged at this point that I'm not sure if the only quality PvP game in the history of mmorpgs can be taken seriously anymore either. Plus, the handful of folks keeping the server on don't sem to care about the bot groups farming dragons and parts of Epic raid dungeons, or Tault Unleashed radar hacks, etc.
I hate to say it, if you want a game that takes itself seriously you might just want to play chess or at least wait until ESO or Camelot Unchaned releases in the far future.
Well, taking anything about this seriously is laughable. It's a simulated game world where we pretend to be something we're not with absolutely no consequence at all.
I'm not sure what you're on about with moving between pvp and pve and then bringing up DAoC with its contrived 3 faction themepark pvp. The game doesn't have out of place lore elements per the OP. Did you even read the OP? He doesn't want to see bunny backpacks, anything anime, or anything outlandish in the game world. He didn't mention anything about combat or game systems requirements.
I have to agree with you on this one. Of all the games I have played in the years of mmorpgs, this is probably the most "real life" scenario out there. (TSW that is) No elves, trolls, or cute little goblins to play. It is about as serious as they come. And yes, there are zombies, but like you said it is all about pretending!
Death is nothing to us, since when we are, Death has not come, and when death has come, we are not.
Looking for old school? Well I have a suggestion :P Atlantica online(http://atlantica.nexon.net/)
Great game :O
The world of Atlantica Online features real world locations mixed with mythological and fantasy elements
After beginning the game you huys can recruit mercenaries to join in your travels.
It has original battle system That means the game's battle system is unusual for its genre in that it uses a turn-based system.
What's more it has other battle system inside the game. The Tactical battle system (TBS) is a separate, additional combat system that differs in many respects from the original system. Its mostly made for missions, raiding where you can move freely and feel other dimension of gameplay.
The pvp... its mostly why ppl consider the game pay 2 win. PvP is a huge part of the game and most fun for me :P Gear matters for low skilled players but for old ones with huge skill... they can win just with +0-1s items if its latest tier ofc.
Raiding is group thing untill you gear yourself up to solo it. Actually you can solo only 110/135 lvl raid others is duo/trio more.
Crafting system is something really fun. Nowadays not many ppl craft as much but still its superb feeling to craft an item with 4-5 enchants on it.
A noteworthy feature distinguishing Atlantica Online from other MMORPGs is the players' ability to gamble the loot obtained in battles with mobs. Practicly, you convert all ur loot into 1 you would want(for ex: craft material for your armors :P)
Housing, Town controls, guild dungeons, nation dungeon a great game with tons of features.
Since nexon manages the game... it can be annoying sometimes but that never stopped me from having fun there. If you want old school mmo where you have to earn every single of ur lvl...actually put an efford to achieve something, AO is a game for you.
EVE Online, it has a high drop rate of players though. Not for everyone.
Age of Conan. It's free to play now and the Conan universe isn't exactly known for being filled with fluffy adorable bunnies and other kid friendly things like that. The game does hold true to that. You're still probably going to have to shell out some cash to get all of the content though, the expansion for sure, last I checked.
The Secret World is great if you're into the occult and conspiracy theories. The episodic expansions are priced pretty reasonably and really totally optional. The initial purchase of the game comes with so much content that it'll give you an idea as to whether or not it's worth it to pick them up. Out of the three factions, the Templar and Dragon seem to be more up your alley with seriousness. Personally I play the Illuminati because in this grim dark world they are the most casual and relaxed about all the hell that is going on around them. Plus they have the best sense of humor in my opinion.
Lord of The Rings Online if you liked LOTRO but I couldn't get into it. The game that is, I loved the books.
The Elder Scrolls Online in the future, it looks like it's going to be a serious MMO and it looks pretty solid all around as a game. Unfortunately for me, I would rather they give me multiplayer for Skyrim than an MMO but that doesn't look like it'll happen any time soon.
Kingdom Under Fire 2 was just confirmed to be getting released in NA in 2014 so if you like Action RTS games this ones for you. I'm hoping this game will be different from most Korean games and let us actually make our own characters instead of having to pick one like so many other games.
Fallen Earth is another pretty serious MMO. It can be a bit clunky at times though. Luckily it's free to play if you would like to try it out and if you want to improve your progression in the game you could always just subscribe.
Another one I'm really excited for in the future is Eternal Crusade which is a Warhammer 40k title, and the 40k universe does not mess around. Everything is grim dark, ridiculous and awesome. Unfortunately there is no release date but the concept gets me excited alone. Basically they described it as if WH40k, EVE, and Planetside 2 had a baby. That sounds amazing to me.
I can't think of anymore games to fit what you're looking for but I would love to add more games to this list since it's the kind I love. Then again I am totally making an Exception for Wild Star because it's supposedly going to be probably more Sandbox than Theme Park and it gives off a very good Ratchet and Clank vibe so I can't help myself.

NOTE: People! READ the note above! I am not going to continuously repeat myself over PMs again and again! Anybody else asking me why I am not PM-ing them, why I haven't accepted them on my buddy list, that i should send them a PM for the next update etc etc, is going to get ignored. Kinda getting annoyed, that despite me answering my reasons for not accepting people, I am still getting PMs of people telling me to send them a PM and accept them in my "buddy list"
Part 21
"When you first fall in love, it's supposed to be awful. Awful, uncertain, scary, wonderful, confusing, all at once. That's how you know it's real. You have to care deeply. Passionately. That hurts." - Nancy Werlin
Khushi sat in her seat, her small frame getting swallowed by the large, plush leathered seat, with a TV in front, and remote on the side with buttons on it, for different functions. She pressed a few, her face lighting up in delight at what each was for.
"I was going to book the first-class, but Di insisted we travel by business, because you would probably get intimidated since this is your first time flying" Arnav explained, as he quickly packed away their hand-luggage at the compartment on the top, waving away the air-hostess which had offered to help. Khushi shrugged her shoulders with indifference and stared out the window, the excitement of travelling by plane for the first time taking over her,
"I don't mind' She said, as she looked at the remote, biting her lip in confusion as she pressed down on the power button, but the TV did not switch on. As Arnav sat down next to her, he made himself comfortable, while Khushi kept pressing down on the button, slowly getting frustrated as it refused to corporate.
She felt Arnav's gaze on her, and a blush slowly started at her cheeks at the embarrassment of not being able to switch on the TV.
"Stop" He hissed, and Khushi turned to face him, her hand still holding the remote, looking at him confused, "It won't switch on till the plane takes off" He explained, and Khushi's mouth dropped open in understanding, as she placed the remote back, not quite getting the rules and restrictions of the plane.
As the airhostess walked around, she glanced at Khushi's seat, and smiled while leaning in to tell her something, "Ma'am, the plane is about to take-off. Would you please put on your seatbelt?"
Khushi nodded and looked to the back of the seat to grab her seatbelt, but frowned when she found nothing, as she looked around, she saw the strap of the belt at the side and grabbed a hold of it, she tried looking around for the clasp, but at finding nothing, she looked around, confused.
Arnav tutted and exhaled in frustration, putting the magazine that he had been holding back in the rack, and faced her, a look of irritation passing his features.
Khushi looked back down at the seatbelt and continued to look around for the buckle, feeling her face heating up as she couldn't find it, dreading what would happen if the plane took off without her wearing the seat belt.
A hand enclosed around hers, and Khushi jumped in her seat, as her body stiffened up, and she held her breath, as Arnav leaned in to grab the seatbelt off from her, took the buckle hanging at the other side, and buckled her up.
She held her breath, as she felt his fingers brush over her stomach, as he tightened the buckle, and continued to hold her breath as he let go, and leaned back in his seat.
It was only when she was sure that he wasn't going to lean in, did Khushi release her breath, and leaned away from him, closer to the window next to her, leaning her head against the plane, silently praying to her Devi Maiya to make this trip bearable.
Khushi kept her eyes looking out of the small window, the journey long and tiring but the excitement brewing at the pit of her stomach made any jetlag and tiredness she felt, flying out the window, as she saw the greenery and sections of plain land as the plane hovered over the island of Australia.
She clutched onto the plastic of the window, and leaned in closer, her nose touching the glass, her breath fogging it up, as her eyes widened and took in the lights, the traffic, the roads, the structure, the foreignness of the land.
She had never travelled that much when she was in India, and this was the first time she was travelling overseas. She tried containing her excitement but was failing miserably, and she clapped her hands together as she saw the plane was getting closer to touch-down, jumping slightly in her chair, a giggle escaping her lips.
"Calm down" A voice came from her side, and the smile immediately vanished from her face as she quickly sat back in her chair her arms crossing at her chest, and glaring at him. He had his eyes closed, and the formals which he had worn at the start of the journey had slowly started coming off as the flight had taken-off.
Now Arnav sat next to her in a pine-striped shirt tucked into his pants, the top button undone, as the vest and tie had been packed away in his hand luggage.
The spacious seats, and the way they inclined back had Khushi completely baffled at the start, and Arnav had not done much to comfort her either, but eventually after pressing a few unknown buttons, she had managed to unintentionally call the airhostess several times, make the TV switch channels without meaning to, and recline her seat back further than she wanted to.
Finally getting a grasp for the buttons, she had a pleasant second half of the journey, especially since Arnav had gone off to sleep, leaving Khushi in peace to do whatever she wanted.
As the plane touched down, she closed her eyes tight, and prayed a quick prayer to her Devi Maiya for the safe flight.
Opening her eyes she saw Arnav stretching out on his seat, the arms flexing as he raised them up, the shirt stretching across his flat stomach and the broad chest, and Khushi looked away, tapping her foot in impatience for him to get out so she could get her luggage and explore the country.
"Keep close to me. I don't want to keep looking out for you" Arnav muttered as he handed her, her handbag, and started walking down the narrow aisle towards the exit of the plane.
The airport was nicely conditioned, and Khushi's eyes widened as she took in the interior design, the people bustling about, people with all kinds of coloured hair, dress sense, and just the whole atmosphere of being in a different country.
Despite feeling tired after such a long journey, Khushi kept the smile on her face as she stuck close to Arnav, her eyes darting around, taking in everything, the excitement slowly bubbling at the pit of her stomach as she thought about everything she would tell her Jiji when she got to the hotel.
Seeing Arnav step on the travelator, Khushi gulped, and held onto the side railing of it, gently placing her foot on the fast moving machine, and quickly stepped on it, giving out a gasp as she lost her balance and felt herself toppling back .
A hand grasped her shoulder firmly, while the other came to rest on her waist, and helped her regain her balance. Khushi looked over her shoulder to thank the stranger and found herself looking into twinkling blue eyes, sandy blonde hair covering his forehead, a dimple appearing on the man's cheek as he grinned at her cheekily and asked,
"You alright, mate?"
Khushi's eyes widened as the accent was lost on her and her mouth opened slightly in confusion as she looked at him bewildered. His smile deepened and he repeated,
"Are you alright?"
Khushi felt her cheeks warming as she continued to look at the man with the blue eyes. Her eyes narrowed slightly as she tried stringing the words together in her head, trying to make sense of his heavily accented English, and smiled shyly in embarrassment as she realised that she had no idea what he was asking of her. She was snapped out of her thoughts as a hand enclosed around her arm and pull at it lightly. Khushi looked and saw Arnav standing there, his eyes briefly looking over her blushing face, before he turned to the stranger,
"Yeah she's fine" He said, and then pulled at her arm again, quickly waking down the travelator, making Khushi follow him.
Khushi looked over her shoulder again to see the handsome man staring at her, and winked at her as he caught her eye, the cheeky grin covering his face again and Khushi gave out a gasp as she quickly looked ahead, her eyes widening, and a hand clapping to her mouth, her face turning red in mortification.
"I told you to keep up with me!" Arnav snapped, as his grip on her arm did not loosen, and Khushi kept quiet, her mind still reeling from the small encounter with a stranger, and a small smile resting on her face.
As they walked into the Crown Towers where they were staying, Khushi held back a yawn as Arnav went to the reception to fill out the formalities. Arnav came to stand next to her, and the butler and porter followed, leading them to a separate hallway, their keys ready in hand, small kind smiles ready on their faces as they explained to them the Villa Experience booked under their name.
"These are your private elevators, which you can use whenever, however the floor you need to go on will only be activated when you swipe your key like this" The Butler explained as he swiped his key. Khushi tried keeping up with what he was saying however he was speaking too fast, and his words were heavily laced with thick Australian accent, dropping a mate at the end of every two sentences.
"They lead you directly to your Villa, My name is Matthew, and I will be there for your assistance 24 hours" The Butler explained, as he opened the doors to their Villa, and Khushi stepped in, her eyes widening as she took in the room.
It was more like a house. There was a lounge room the moment you entered, with big windows surrounding the entire living room, giving a breath-taking view of the entire city, the lights twinkling as night started to fall, and Khushi's eyes widened as she went and stood in front of the windows, her hands touching the cool glass, a shiver running down her spine at the view. She had never expected to see such an amazing view.
Her breath fogged up the glass, and she stepped away, her eyes taking in every little detail of the suite, whether it was the furniture that complimented the colours, or the small decorator items that surrounded the suite, adding their own personal touch to it. The fresh flowers surrounding the living room, created a fresh look in the modern design of the house, and she inhaled deeply, the aroma of the flowers invading her senses, and the tension and tiredness slowly leaving her body.
"Mrs. Jha had called up before your arrival and had asked for our Indian staff to assist Mrs. Raizada on a few things"
Khushi's head snapped up at her name being mentioned and she went and stood beside Arnav, who was listening to the Butler,
"So we have asked Miss. Nandini Sharma to assist you, ma'am" Matthew said, mispronouncing Nandini's name. Khushi nodded her thanks, and then moved around the suite, stepping into her room and stopping short at the sight in front of her.
She faintly heard Matthew address how it was their honeymoon, and therefore the bottle of Champagne and cake was on the house, and Khushi gulped audibly as she saw the decorations on the bed.
Candles surrounded the room, unlit, yet surrounding the entire room, already filling it with their sweet incense, and Khushi took in a shaky breath as she saw the flower petals strewn about the entire room, the lights dimmed, the white bed sheets neatly tucked in, a few hear chocolates nicel arranged on the bed, the whole room reeking of romance and love, none of which existed in their relationship.
She heard Arnav come up behind her and stopped short, his own breath hitching at the sight in front of him, and she practically felt the tension in the room heighten, her own hands gripping the sides of her suit, her breaths deepening as she heard him take another step into the room, and the heat from his body warmed her back. She gulped as the feelings from her wedding night returned, the feeling of helplessness, anger, fear, confusion, and she waited.
She waited whether he would do something.
Her hands gripped the sides of her suit tightly, holding her breath, ready to lash out in case he touched her.
He cleared his throat and quickly took a few steps, brushing past her, not sparing her a glance as he placed his suitcase on the bed, took out his nightclothes and quickly went to the bathroom, shutting the door behind him.
Khushi let out the breath she had been holding, the tension slowly leaving her body, as she walked up to the bed, and sat down, feeling the softness of the sheets under her palms.
As she laid back on the bed, and closed her eyes thoughtfully, she wondered who would be sleeping on the couch tonight.
Here is the layout of the suite:
They are in Melbourne, Australia...since I live there, and kinda have an idea of the people, streets and places :)
Please let me know what you thought of this part!
No PMs have been sent as of yet!
Exams approaching so might not be able to update till November! :)

Professor Patrick Dodson: Inaugural Gandhi OrationPolitics
- Highlights
- watch now
Patrick Dodson, indigenous leader, strongly regarded as the 'father of Australian reconciliation' gave the Inaugural Gandhi Oration at the University of New South Wales to an audience where there was standing room only.
Mahatma Gandhi was assassinated on January 30, 1948 and this day is commemorated as Martyrs Day in India. It was a fitting tribute that a leader of the stature of Patrick Dodson be chosen to pay tribute to the Indian leader who pioneered non-violent resistance and civil disobedience.
As Dodson said of Gandhi "...his life and achievements have inspired every human rights struggle that has been undertaken on this earth since his death in Delhi in 1948." And... "For Gandhi, the essence of non-violence as a technique was to 'liquidate antagonism but not the antagonist."
Professor Dodson draws parallels between strategies of civil disobedience in India and successful non violent struggles by Indigenous workers in northern Australia eg. the Pilbara strikes of 1946 and the Gurindji peoples' walk off the Vestey rural properties in 1966.
"In both incidents, the strategies used so effectively by Gandhi - the removal of labour, the boycott of economic activity and non -violent opposition - were used by leaders to resist attempts by those with power and money to force Aboriginal people back into cages of oppression and slavery."
Currently, Professor Dodson has been part of the Expert Panel charged with delivering to the Prime Minister, ways in which Indigenous peoples could be recognised in the Australian Constitution. This report was delivered at the beginning of 2012. As Dodson said in his speech that there will be people who will regard this exercise as a waste of time and some indigenous people who will think the recommendations don't go nearly far enough.
He went on to say... "I hope....that as a nation we can have an informed and mature conversation about such matters, without resorting to divisive commentary or cheap political point scoring."

it is wonderful to think that the reception for patrick dodson was so strong. This is very heartening.
I have just returned from Lotus Glen Prison in north queensland where there is an 85% indigenous population, which is a high percentage considering the overall population in this area. There needs to be a fight for traditional understanding, insight and representation which is still not happening. The idea of civil disobedience or passive resistance to show discontent or digust would be much better than drinking alcohol and ending up in the slammer looking at a wall of bricks.
Most traditional elders up here are passive but unhappy about their young. These elders now having possession of their lands need be given the appropriate respect and be allowed to close these tribal areas until the government sits down and really tries to get a proper dialogue and show proper protocol rather than using representatives who really do not represent the people, saying what the government wants to hear.Reconciliation and forgiveness like pat dodson envisioned needs more understanding on both sides so solutions rather than taking sides does not gather momentum like it seems to be happening up here, and racist sentiments abound again.

Elite Syncopations
|Elite Syncopations
|by Scott Joplin
|John Stark & Son
|Instrument: Piano Solo
"Elite Syncopations" is a 1902 ragtime composition by Scott Joplin, originally published by John Stark & Son.[1] One of his more popular works, it is one of a handful of Joplin rags for which he recorded a piano roll. The cover of the original sheet music prominently features a well-dressed man and lady sitting on a treble staff, looking down upon a cherub clutching a cymbal in each hand, which reflects plainly the title of the piece. In 1974, the Royal Ballet, under director Kenneth MacMillan, created the ballet Elite Syncopations based on tunes by Joplin and other composers of the era.
Musical structure[edit]
The piece's musical structure is
- Intro A A B B A C C D D
It begins in F major, and modulates to B-flat major at the beginning of the C section, where it remains until the end of the piece. In addition, many parts of the piece are somewhat chromatic, especially section A.

Les Semaines
what I'm thinking and doing § what I'm listening to § what I'm reading
what I'm writing § retrospective: The Phonosnout
I really liked Patrick O'Leary's The Impossible Bird. It's a fascinatingly tangled story about two brothers forced to search for each other and aliens and hummingbirds and life and death--a really captivating tale and well-told, and I loved it. But I got really annoyed by him (and/or his copyeditor) not knowing that the past tense of the verb "to lie" as in "to lie down" is "lay" and not "laid". He used it a lot and it kept being a little bump in the text. And then, to top it off, there was a big chronological mistake (which i won't describe in detail because it entails spoilers, but it is clearly stated that something ended before a particular character was born and then it is shown starting after he was born). Annoying annoying annoying. I'm a little surprised how these dumb little things spoiled how much I trusted the book. I still liked it, but somehow I felt I couldn't rely on the writer,and so when there were things I liked I wasn't always sure they were intentional. Interesting how that works. A good book was tarnished for me due to sloppy editing.
I heard of Kate Berheimer's The Complete Tales of Ketzia Gold on Terri Windling's Endicott studio website, which frequently comments on books that have fairy tale connections. This is an episodic novel, based on a long list of fairy tales that she acknowledges before the novel beings, but the story doesn't feel as though it leans that heavily on them; instead she leans heavily on the voice of the narrator and on the way she tells her stories. Episodic novels feel like they require a lot of energy to move from short chapter to short chapter, so it took me a while to care about finishing it, but I did generally enjoy it. It's a story about a woman's life, as she grows up the middle of three sisters, marries her high school sweetheart, breaks up with him (while going a little crazy) and builds a new life for herself.
Despite being more than weary of retellings of Arthurian stories, I borrowed Nancy Springer's I am Morgan le Fay from the library because I read such good reviews of it, and I did like it. It was set in a late medieval world and so later than most Arthurian tales and it took me a little while to adjust to the existence of books, for example, but I found this version of Morgan (and of the Fay, as well) a compelling read. I was a little saddened by how compressed the ending was; though while that really wasn't the focus of this book--her youth was--scanning over her adult life didn't seem quite the answer, either.
As usual, Patricia McKillip's Ombria in Shadow was a delight: beautifully written and magical. If I could pin down exactly how she does it, I would copy it. My only complaint is that there's something just a little bit fuzzy about these--I'm always not quite clear on the logic behind the plot's denouement or quite sure about the characters--though this isn't always a bad thing. It does allow space for the magic to be mysterious and charming and beautiful, which is a fine thing. This is about a city that has a shadow, an undercity. The prince's mistress encounters this when the king is on his deathbed and she is escorted to the gates of the palace, where, unbeknownst to her, she encounters Mag, the "waxling" belonging to a sorceress of the underground shadow world, who is beginning to get interested in interfering in the world. Then there's the Black Pearl who has engineered the prince's death, and there's the prince's bastard cousin, an of course the prince's young son who will inherit if the Black Pearl will let him live that long.... A magical story to read and re-read.
So my point is that I've been in a much better mood this week, as I've been working on the novel again. Slowly, which seems to be all I'm capable of these days, but working nonetheless. Making some forward motion. It feels like a miracle.
And now I'm having to do research on close contact gun shot (rifle in this case) wounds. Sheesh. There are way too many pictures on the web--I'm getting squicked.
That conceived in an obscure rite
of January involving travel
and the killing of fowl, I was
to be champion. However,
in prelude to a lifetime of
equivocation, hastily I
decided to be a woman,
no knowing women were not to be
champions, but graceful. Falling
to an outside will, into grace.
Then knowing this and changing
that. Becoming champion grace.
Both, in wonder. Ying. Yang.
Whole and lonely [2].
Dear who I was forgive me
for leaving it was
sheer desperation, I
assure you. And I know I
left not much to sustain
you: one watchful eye
one baleful Judas kiss.
2. This meditation is about, first, the story of my conception. My mother tells me it involves my father coming home, very drunk, after a turkey shoot to celebrate him passing his exams. Then is it about me changing my name. I was going to be Neil if I had been a boy. Neil means "champion". BUt I was a girl and named Nancy Eileen, both of which come from the root Hannah, which means "grace". Then I added the champion (Neile) in front myself. So I am Champion Grace Grace Graham.

Action Line: Old phone scam making the rounds; license plates renewal fees; traffic congestion
November 20, 2013
QUESTION — I have a 2006 Jeep Cherokee, and my registration fees have been the same the past two years. Isn't it supposed to go down every year?
ANSWER — Well, for the first four years of a vehicle's life, it does; then in years five though eight, it stays the same, then goes down a bit more for each year in years nine and 10, said Steve Moreno, Weld County's clerk and recorder.
"The license plates are figured out for 10 years, before they get down to a minimum fee," Moreno said.
QUESTION — Are plans in the works for traffic signals at the intersection of 35th Avenue and 32nd Street in Evans? This is a busy intersection for residents of Ashcroft Heights and Heiman Elementary School. Now, a large apartment complex at this intersection is beginning to accept residents in one building while several other buildings are in construction. This intersection is especially congested in the morning, after school and on into the evening. Help is needed now and most definitely in the near future.
ANSWER — We contacted the city of Evans, and spokeswoman Kristan Williams said a traffic study in July 2012 showed the intersection did not yet meet the federal guidelines for a traffic signal, so the city determined there was no need. You would probably have some luck taking your concerns about the busy intersection — especially since the traffic study is now almost a year and a half old — to the city council. The council meets on the first and third Tuesday of each month at 7:30 p.m. in the council chambers of the Evans Community Complex, 3700 11th Ave.
SCAM ALERT — An oldie but goodie is making the rounds again in Greeley. Scammers call up claiming they represent your utility or cable service, for example, claiming their accounts are past due and the recipient has 45 minutes to rectify it, or risk losing their service. They're instructed to purchase a prepaid Visa Card at a Walmart, then call the scammers back with the code number so the callers can collect the money.
Greeley police fraud specialist Christy Hardwick said this scam has been around for at least four years, and comes back to Greeley periodically when scammers target area codes.
In the past two weeks, Hardwick said she's received four complaints, one from a woman who lost almost $400 in the scam.
Hardwick said a lot of times the callers call businesses during busy times, such as a restaurant's lunch hour, when they know the recipients couldn't afford to lose power, for example.
Hardwick said it's impossible to track the callers as they often call over the Internet, or mask their true phone numbers with local numbers.
Anyone receiving any calls seeking money for accounts past due should hang up, get their bill and call the company representatives to verify the claims.
Hardwick said she tries to post regular fraud updates on the Greeley Police's Facebook page. If you have any questions about such calls, or if you have been scammed, feel free to call Hardwick at (970) 350-9674.

I love lemon pudding cake and this recipe is excellent! I hope you will enjoy it as much as I do. This recipe is from Gourmet Magazine.

- 1⁄4 teaspoon salt
- 3⁄4 cup sugar, plus
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 3 large eggs, separated
- 1 1⁄3 cups whole milk
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- Finely grate 1 Tbsp zest from lemons, then squeeze 1/4 cup+ 2 Tbsp juice.
- Whisk together flour, salt, and 1/2 cup + 2 Tbsp sugar in a large bowl.
- Whisk together yolks, milk, zest and juice in a small bowl and add to flour mixture, whisking just until combined.
- Beat egg whites in another bowl with an electric mixer until they hold soft peaks.

Great. Exactly the recipe we all need, more for 4 people in my book though. Cheap, easy and fast, and tastes fantastic. My French husband thinks this is the top of the top, and wants me to make it for his inlaws, which I will do. Great recipe!
Excellent , light and not too sweet. Suggest kicking up lemon with 1/2 to 1 tsp lemon extract top with whipped cream . Equally good at room temperature or chilled.
So light and delicious , I beat the egg whites first with the clean beaters, then beat the cake batter with the same beaters .my husband couldn't stay away from it ! When I make it for company , I'll serve it in goblets and stick a few rolled cookies in it :).
