(Recap- Alexandra's death was unpredictable, well maybe but it was to Dylan. Although shes dead why doesnt dylan see what happened? A strange girl showed up at his house and lead him back to the old church.) Back at the church- The girl doesn't respond and disappears, after a few seconds Dlyan hits the ground, "ugh where am I now?" he looks around, it appears to be a room with a door and in front of the room is a long dark blocked off tunnel, he looks at the door and slowly walks over to it and opens it. All you see in the room are a few creates and on one of the them there was a pickaxe covered in blood. He picks up the axe and starts chopping down the wood blocking the tunnel. "Now lets see what's at the end here," he starts walking through the tunnel cautiously. There is a door that appears to have blood on it at the end of the tunnel, he reaches for the handle slowly and opens the door. In the room there is only a book on a table in the middle of the room. "Hmm it appears to be some type of spellbook" he looks at the spell that was already open, (the one he didn't believe is the one he will see.) "The one he didn't believe is the one he will see? W-what the hell does this even mean! The spellbook glows and a spirit comes out of the book (the spirit of the faceless girl appears) "please! Help me! I-I don't like this anymore... please bring me to life!" She disappears as soon as she appeared "Wait come back and tell me how! I'll bring you back somehow!" screams the boy. Spikes form on the wall and the boy grabs the spellbook and runs to the door, the spikes smash together quickly crushing the table to dust. BOOM!
Dlyan look back at the door panting for breath, "jeez no need to try to kill me, I didn't want to come here anyway" he looks sadly at the floor. Two spirits appear infront of him, they were the spirits of Alexandra and another death spirit. "please i'll do anything for Alexandra, please give her back!" The spirit looks at him head to toe "why should I? Your a worthless human being. You don't deserve to live either." Dylan slowly looks at Alexandra "okay then kill me instead, please she has a life ahead of her." Alexandra looks at him in shock, " no don't do this please u-uh i'll keep working for him, until I get my life back." The shadow looks at her then grins and closes his eyes "silly girl you will never leave me, you belong to me now, you will never leave my side." Dylan drops the spell book and tries to punch the spirit but it grabs his neck tightly. "Agh let me go you worthless mon-" He stops talking and remains silent, a slight cracking noice is very faint but hearable. "No! Don't! alexandra yells, the spirit breaks Dylans neck and drops him to the floor. A bunch of dark faires come out of the spell book and circle his body, they enchant a spell over and over again (he was bad, he was bad, now our master is not glad, let him suffer in his hands!) A dark aura circles around his body, Alexandra runs over to Dylan but the fairies prevent her from getting completely near him. His body rises into the air and starts to turn black as darkness. The spirit claps and his body falls back down onto the floor. Alexandra looks at him worried.... To be continued

It is perfect for our needs; a new breezeway, lots of light, but insulated and next to the garage. The stove is beautiful, quiet and efficient and we've been going out there as the days here in NH get cooler, spending several hrs. and not using the furnace at all. Everything so far has been easy.

works well
By ed
from upstate ny
we use the unit to heat our finished basement over 350 sq ft, it does a great job.
It gets the job done!
By Just Some Guy
from Cincinnati, OH
We move this unit between a basement family room and office. The wheels make moving it easy and convenient. It heats up the room relatively quickly. We bought it for the heat, but it is an attactive unit, which is a bonus. The fireplaces seems well built and durable, but I haven't had it long enough to know how it will hold up.
Service and delivery comments:
The delivery was prompt and everything worked right out of the box.
Fast shipping, nice heater.

There's no other way to experience Kyoto than biking in this haven for cyclists and this tour served as a perfect introduction. Knowledgeable guide and a great route clocked about 18km. Highly recommended.

Yes, I am another one of those crazy fangirls who can hardly hold in her squeeing and often goes into spurts of obsession with certain pairings. However, there's a lot more to me so let's not leave it at that.
When I was a kid, I adored Sailor Moon, though I didn't really differentiate it from any other cartoon. Later, I started watching Inuyasha and my discovery of anime immediately turned into love. Thank gosh for the internet.
I am a college student majoring in Animal Science. Online roleplaying is my number one hobby, though I also watch anime and play video games. Hobby-time often happens while I'm procrastinating on homework or other important things. And, while I can be social and adventurous, I often spend nights independently indulging my geeky side.

Hi TropicalSwirl! ^_^ As Ms. shounen-ai herself, you might have a good idea for this week's contest since it's similar designs ;) I'm wondering if you'd consider entering the weekly signature contest we are now running? :D The themes change per week... sometimes anime-based (this week is "shoujo", for example), sometimes not, like maybe we'd have a generic "animal" theme. People vote on the anonymous entries each week and then the winner is posted in a special thread ^_^. Since you are good with themes I'm hoping it interests you. Here's the thread for this week's contest!
I know that I already said hi to you but I just think what you said:
I am another one of those psycho fangirls who can rarely hold her squeeing in and often goes into spurts of obsession with certain pairings.
is pretty much amazing!
You Rock!
Yeah, I think that's the one! *too lazy to check* :D
I typically have work and homework during the weekends (especially this one), so that doesn't always happen, for me. Usually I get a few episodes a week in, at least, but it varies. ^^;;
Oooh. That sounds like a good idea! XD
That reminds me that there's a yuri blog I found that reviews anime and manga that have shoujo-ai tendancies/rumours, and she evern rates how much shoujo-ai content there actually is. XD
Hehehe >;P
Same. I wasted away my summer with lots of anime, but there are still so many I wish to finish ;o;
My only real way to find new anime is through my live bookmark of animesuki, so I can see wha's being fansubbe, so that gives me a bit of an idea of what's new and/or newly popular. Or something. XD
Oooh. Soudns shiny! Thanks for the consideration! 8D If I find any GL or BL shows that you haven't seen I might just have to drop you a note, too :P
That's the best way to do it! I managed to finish a few this past summer, myself. XD

To embed, copy and paste the code into your website or blog:
The Minnesota Legislature reconvened this past Tuesday after a weeklong break. Committees have taken to task assembling omnibus bills to meet the third committee deadline of April 19. This deadline was set in January for committees to act favorably on major appropriation bills. The only committees not subject to this deadline are the tax committees.
Since the February budget forecast, which estimated a reduction in the state's deficit from $1.1 billion to just over $600 million, Governor Dayton submitted a supplemental budget to the legislature updating his spending priorities. The Governor and leadership in both bodies have different spending targets. Now it is up to the tax committees to figure out how enough revenue will be raised to cover the proposed appropriations and the remaining deficit for the upcoming biennium.
As we return from the Easter-Passover break, taxing tools being discussed are heavily focused on income tax. A fourth tier income tax seems to have the broadest support in the majority parties, and there has been discussion of a temporary income tax surcharge on that fourth tier to cover previous bienniums' school shifts. The surcharge would place Minnesota just behind California as the state with the second highest marginal tax rate in the country. Along with the new fourth tier tax rate for those individuals with a taxable income exceeding $150,000 and married joint filers above $250,000, there are other taxes being considered—sales tax expansions as well as increased taxes on tobacco and alcohol.
After a massive outcry from the business community, the Governor dropped his business-to-business tax proposal in mid-March. Services consumed by businesses—like those provided by legal and accounting firms—would have been subject to sales taxes and would have generated a tremendous amount of revenue for the state. While those taxes have been eliminated from the Governor's proposal, Senator Thomas Bakk (DFL-Cook) has indicated he may support taxing certain business-to-business services. Dropping business-to-business sales taxes created a gap in the budget plan, forcing the Governor to drop his $500 per year property tax rebate for homeowners. The House and Senate are currently assembling their respective property tax packages that would provide property owners and renters with rebates; however, it would be based on property value and need rather than a set amount for homeowners across the board.
Governor Dayton signed legislation creating a health insurance exchange for Minnesota, now called MnSure, on March 20. After a long journey through the legislature, MnSure staff now face the equally daunting task of preparing the online insurance marketplace for its public unveiling on October 1, 2013. In addition to naming a board of directors for MnSure and establishing internal operating policies, a substantial amount of technical infrastructure work remains. For more information on the insurance exchange, visit the MnSure website.
The insurance exchange consumed much of the health care community's bandwidth during the first half of the legislative session. With that legislation now enacted into law, attention is largely turning to the biennial budget proposal for fiscal year 2014-15. With the February budget forecast showing a smaller than expected deficit, Governor Dayton proposed a spending increase of $170 million for the Health and Human Services (HHS) budget. However, the House and Senate have both recently proposed cutting HHS by $150 million, while providing many other areas with larger dollar amounts. This budget target obviously has many stakeholders concerned and frustrated, especially given the overall size and scope of the House and Senate budget proposals. The HHS omnibus finance bill should be completed within the next two weeks, and stakeholders are anxiously awaiting details regarding how the $150 million reduction will be achieved. Previous solutions to similar situations have ranged from rate cuts to health care providers and HMOs to reductions in medical education appropriations.
Discussions around environmental policy over the last two years had largely focused on streamlining the administration of permit applications. With the new Democratic majorities, the common themes of conservation and reducing pollution have returned to the forefront. Three issues in particular have priority: water management, silica sand mining, and chemical regulation.
Amidst reports of the state's water usage trends reaching unsustainable levels, the Department of Natural Resources has put forward a proposal reforming how water permits are dealt with. House File 1679 and Senate File 1549 re-categorize water permits and the associated fees into several distinct categories, a change from current practice where the amount of water used was the biggest determining factor of cost. You can find the language of the proposal here.
Silica sand mining received a great deal of media attention leading up to the 2013 session and has continued to be a hot topic of discussion at the legislature. Several bills have been introduced dealing with the silica sand industry in southeastern Minnesota, with a wide range of local stakeholders weighing in on both sides of the issue. Options ranging from new regulatory oversight boards to a full moratorium are being discussed, and it remains to be seen what, if any, final decisions are made this year.
Highlighted by Governor Dayton's executive order banning soap containing the antibacterial chemical triclosan from state buildings, there have been several bills introduced to reduce the use of various chemicals such as triclosan and bisphenol-A from everyday products. A favorite topic of Democratic legislatures, chemical regulation promises to be a recurring issue through this session and the next.
The House and Senate Transportation Finance Committee Chairs, Representative Frank Hornstein (DFL-Minneapolis) and Senator Scott Dibble (DFL-Minneapolis), are both longtime transit advocates. Their commitment to the southwest light rail corridor will likely shift the typical transportation funding discussion in Minnesota. Historically, transportation funding has been not as much a partisan debate as it has been a geographic debate, and highway funding was king. In other words, a highway funding bill could only get enough votes if the highway funding was balanced between the Twin Cities and Greater Minnesota, and some money got thrown into the transit system. This year, there is sure to be a comprehensive transit funding bill, but in order for it to pass, a supplemental and fair highway bill will have to be a part of the mix.

"Death leaves a heartache no one can heal. Love leaves a memory no one can steal."
Only daughter of Wilma, Beloved mother of Michelle, loving grandmother to Nathan, Nicholas, Kassandra, Alexander and Cayden. Former wife and forever soul mate of Payton.
My mother was taken away from us at the hands of her 2nd husband. She has missed so much since she has been gone. Her oldest 2 grandsons graduation's from High School. the birth of her 2 youngest grandsons,The marriage of one of her grandsons, The birth of her 1st great grandson, the passing of her beloved grand mother, aunt and uncle, . So many big things yet there are thousands of little things.
I so miss being able to call her and talk to her about the silly mundane "life" things we use to always laugh about. Heck, I called her all the way from Germany to rant about over cooking a pot roast!! LOL
My mother was a hoot! she had an infectious laugh and always had a smile on her pretty face. She never had a cross word to say about anyone and her cup was ALWAYS HALF FULL. The loved to dance and watch old movies.. Gone with the Wind was her favorite. We use to watch it togehter and recite every word. She loved to play with her grandkids, and she could play a mean game of badminton :o)
My mother was attacked and beaten by her 2nd husband on Dec 28th 1995, I flew from Germany to Nashville to be by her side. She was removed from life suppport and passed away Dec 31, 1995 at 10:04am at Vanderbilt Hospital in Nashville TN.
She was laid to rest next to my dad's father in Carmi Illinois. My mom and papaw were best buddies and loved to fish and play cards together. I am sure there is no other place she would like to rest than next to "Doc"
My mother's grave marker does not have her married name of her 2nd husband, they were only married for a short period of time. He does not deserve to have his name remembered!
Abbey is my maiden name and all of my family agreed that being she was an ABBEY for many years before she and my father divorced, she should forever be an Abbey.
My mother is missed so much by so many. They say the years get easier, but it's a lie..I have learned to live with it, but I will never get over it and I will NEVER forgive the person who took her from me.
Her killer, pled guilty to 2nd degree murder and was given only 20 years. Not near enough to make up for what he has done and what he took from us.
I would like to give a huge {{{hug}}} to GuyB for sponsoring my mother's memorial!!
A very kind thank you to all who leave flowers for my Mother. My mom loved flowers, pink roses were her favorite. When I get a chance to go to Illinois and visit her grave, I always take her a pretty bunch of pink roses.
We are connected...my child and I...by an invisible cord...not seen by the eye...It's not like the cord that connects us 'till birth...this cord can't be seen by any on earth....This cord does its work...right from the start...It binds us together....attached to my heart...I know that it's there...though no one can see...the invisible cord from my child to me......The strength of this cord is hard to describe...It can't be destroyed...it can't be denied.....It's stronger than any cord man could create....It withstands the test...can hold any weight.....And though you are gone...though you are not here with me....This cord is still there...but no one can see......It pulls at my heart...I am bruised...I am sore....But this cord is my lifeline...as never before......I am thankful we are connected this way....A mother and child....death can't take it away!

Reggie Jackson took a swipe at his buddy Alex Rodriguez in Sports Illustrated.Reggie Jackson made his comments about Alex Rodriguez and fittingly they came in a "Where Are They Now?" edition of Sports Illustrated -- because these blasts were from the past.
This current Yankees team doesn't do this type of thing. They are nice guys for the most part, but not very fiery, at least when notebooks are around.
Reggie is from another Yankees era, as you know. He has said similar things about steroid abusers before, but he usually leaves his friends out of it.
This time, though, his slight was at A-Rod and, like most of these things, the comments, though a little sensational, don't really matter. Still, they aren't really what A-Rod needs publicly. Rodriguez, with his failing game, doesn't need more attention at the moment, when he is on pace to barely eke to the mid-20s in homers and above 70 RBIs.
Reggie was just being Reggie, but he didn't do A-Rod any favors.

Howard Stern Returning to NBC's 'America's Got Talent'
Radio shock jock Howard Stern told his listeners on Sirius XM this morning that he will return for a second season on the NBC reality talent show 'America's Got Talent.'
The outspoken judge pulled in $15 million last season and has negotiated a new contract that will have him back on the panel when the show airs as a summer series.
Sharon Osbourne has made it clear that she will not be returning to the show and comedian Howie Mandel is apparently still on the fence.
Stern isn't concerned about who ends up sitting beside him when the cameras roll. In fact he suggested, "If I was the only judge, I think the show would be terrific. You don't need the other judges, but all right, I gotta learn to play with others."
NBC's Paul Telegdy issued this statement, "Howard Stern's towering presence and opinions on last season's show as a new judge made a dramatic impact and added a sharper edge to the fascinating developments on state."
"We know that Howard believes in America's Got Talent -- which remains America's top-rated summer series -- and that dedication comes across in a genuine way to our viewers who share his passion about our amazing talent competition."

The Glorious World of Tea
How times have changed! Premium tea is enjoying the spotlight today in ways unimagined just a few short years ago. Until the 1990s, retail purveyors of premium tea in the United States could be counted on one hand, and specialty food stores stocked just a tame selection of humdrum black tea blends. At best, these selections were marked by country of origin, with perhaps a simple attribution to style of tea or country of production. Unlike today, little detailed information was available to tea drinkers, and most people did not even know what questions to ask. For many, tea was, well, not very exciting, but something that you could count on Grandma to have on hand.
Today, we are learning how enticing and pleasingly distinctive premium tea really is. Tea can be subtle and alluring, bold and bracing, sweet and fresh, young and full of vigor, or rich and matured. It is always fragrant and welcoming at all times. Premium teas once unknown in the West are now becoming familiar, and new tea shops and tea houses are opening for business across the country. For tea enthusiasts, this offers a superb opportunity to travel the world of tea one delicious cup at a time.
Crafting fine tea requires a highly developed sense of perception for touch, sight, and sound that no machine can replicate. And every tea—from Taiwan's Ali Shan High Mountain gao shan oolong to a brisk and bright Ceylon black tea from the Nuwara Eliya region of Sri Lanka—tells a story in the cup about the soil and air that nurtured it and the tea-making skills that transformed and shaped it.
So get ready to explore the world of premium tea, with information to decipher tea lists, tea labels, and tea menus and to purchase a varied selection of wonderful and delicious tea with assurance.
About Our Book
In our thirty-five years as retailers of premium tea, we have been asked just about every possible question regarding tea, tea steeping, and tea storage. We have kept these questions in mind as we approached the topics in our book.
Right up front, let us say that we define tea in the classic, historic sense as a caffeinated beverage brewed from the leaf of the Camellia sinensis bush. While it is commonplace today to refer to noncaffeinated, herbal beverages such as peppermint, chamomile, and lavender as "tea," we believe that such beverages should be called by other, more appropriate names, such as herbal teas, herbal infusions, or tisanes. Many of these beverages are delicious and refreshing, but they lie outside the scope of our book, and we leave discussion of them to others.
The world's best teas comprise a tiny percentage of the yearly worldwide production of tea. Yet to us, these teas are the most significant. Therefore, our book focuses its attention on pure, unblended, premium teas from the tea-producing countries that have made the greatest contributions to the art and science of tea cultivation and manufacture: China, Japan, India, Sri Lanka, and Taiwan. As a result of learning, observing the results, and perfecting their techniques in the tea factories, generations of tea masters in these countries have created the most stunning teas imaginable.
We believe that learning as much as possible about tea and the process of artisan tea manufacture will heighten your enjoyment of each cup you steep. We hope you take delight in our journey through the vibrant world of tea.
A Simple Cup of Tea Is No Simple Matter
Tea is an essential beverage that quenches the collective thirst of millions of people every day. Whereas tea was once grown only in China, today tea is cultivated in forty-one (and counting!) countries of the world, and new tea industries are developing as worldwide demand increases for more various types of tea.
Tea drinking has never gone out of fashion—it has simply changed course and usage with each new generation of tea drinkers. Tea, the most widely consumed beverage on the planet after water, still proudly maintains its title as the world's oldest beverage. Tea is a wonderfully intricate and complex commodity. There are said to be approximately twenty thousand different distinctions of tea made in the world, a vast number by anybody's count. Yet, no two teas ever taste exactly alike, and every great tea has a distinctive, trademark flavor. You might even say that tea has a cultural identity.
Yet, all tea is made from the fresh leaf of the Camellia sinensis bush, and its three major varieties:
Camellia sinensis var. sinensis (small-leaf China bush)
Camellia sinensis var. assamica (large-leaf Assam bush)
Camellia sinensis var. cambodi (medium-leaf Java bush)
Additionally, in parts of Burma (known today as Myanmar), China, India, Laos (officially Lao People's Democratic Republic), Thailand, and Vietnam, strains of indigenous tea bushes and old tea trees coexist with hundreds of local cultivars that have been developed to better meet the needs of tea growers in their specific environments. Since all tea starts as freshly plucked leaf, it is theoretically possible to turn any fresh tea leaf into any of the six classes of tea: green, yellow, white, oolong, black, and Pu-erh.
But tea manufacture is a precise, controlled, and predictable process, and in most tea-producing countries, tea producers focus on only one or two classes of tea. Japan, for instance, produces primarily green teas, but they are very distinctive and taste like no other green teas in Asia. On the other hand, China, the country that unlocked the secrets of tea making and established the manufacturing process for each of the six classes of tea, is the only country that produces all six classes of tea.
What explains the seemingly endless selection of tea available for sale in grocery stores and tea shops? The answer is terroir, or place. Terroir is the culmination of all the reasons why, for example, Chinese green teas are so different from Japanese green teas. The same forces that work to create all of the wonderful wines and cheese that are so distinctive and appealing are also at work in every tea garden around the world. Terroir is not just about the place where a plant grows, but also includes numerous other influences that are responsible for the variation in tea. Let's take a look at all of them.
Terroir: Why Tea Is Unique
This word terroir has meaning that can fill volumes. By its most simple definition, terroir refers to the place where the roots of a bush or tree or plant nestle into the ground, and the effects that a distinctive environment, including geography, climate, and weather, contributes to the unique character and taste of a food.
However, our visits to tea-producing countries have shown us that other unique particulars also contribute to the overall effects of terroir and the distinctive differences among teas. These include the subvariety or cultivar of tea bush (generally, subvarieties are naturally occuring and cultivars are the result of human intervention), cultivation practices, the season of the pluck, the method of leaf manufacture, and the craft of tea making.
Tea that is grown in the high, thin air of the Himalaya in eastern Nepal will invariably taste different than tea that is grown in the low-lying, hot, and humid river valley region of Assam, India. What is it like where the particular tea bushes grow? Do the bushes go dormant over the winter or produce new leaf year-round? Are there weather conditions such as monsoon seasons or frost that affect the leaf and subsequently the taste of the tea?
Terroir can have a large connotation, such as tea from India or tea from China, or it can refer to a small, specific geographic connotation, such as tea from the Huang Shan in Anhui Province, China. Terroir distinguishes between locations within the same country as well as between countries.
When we look at all of the tea produced in the regions of any one tea-producing country, we see a composite of teas from north and south, coastal areas, and inland regions. Each terroir has specific tea bush cultivars that contribute leaf of a particular character and style to the teas made in that region. When the elements of place are distinctive and strong, they conspire to keep a particular tea from being able to be duplicated in exactly the same way in other places. The sum total of all of the unique places and teas in any one tea-producing country combines to create the collective regional or national character.
Tea Bush Subvarieties and Cultivars
Three main varieties of Camellia sinensis (and thousands of subvarieties and cultivars) flourish in tea gardens around the world. It is important that a tea bush variety is planted in a place where that bush will thrive. The foibles of the English in the nineteenth century when they first attempted to cultivate tea in India are a perfect example of what happens when the wrong tea bush variety is chosen for a given location. What many may not realize is that the tea bush variety works with terroir to provide the backbone style and to influence the flavor of the tea.
In China, several tea-producing regions in the provinces of Fujian, Guangdong, and Yunnan have native strains of tea bushes and tea trees (some are centuries old) that are not found elsewhere on earth. The fresh leaf from these indigenous varieties is responsible for much of the unique character of the tea from these regions. If you compare tea that is made from old tea tree leaf with one made from the leaf of a modern tea bush cultivar planted nearby, the difference in taste and aroma is quite noticeable.
Tea bush varieties and cultivars look different from one another, too, which means that they act differently during manufacture. Some bushes grow faster or slower; others produce large or small leaves that are thick or thin, less or more serrated on the edges. Tea bush varieties and cultivars have long been overlooked in tea conversations in the West, but this is changing. Many of the nuances of body, fragrance, taste, and aftertaste in tea are influenced by the tea bush variety or cultivar.
Cultivation Practices
Many tea gardens use sustainable farming methods that utilize natural, biodynamic, or organic tea-growing practices. This creates healthier plants by enriching the soil and encouraging the roots of the tea bushes to grow and spread deep into the ground.
To keep the tea bushes healthy and vigorous, ensuring optimal growth and leaf production, and good-tasting tea, workers follow a yearly timetable of scheduled pruning, pest control, fertilizing, and replacing old or damaged tea bushes.
The Season of the Pluck
From the beginning of the tea harvest until the last day of each tea season, millions of tea pluckers fan out into the fields to pluck tender, fresh leaf. Most premium tea is still plucked by hand (with the exception of the mechanical cutters used in Japan and other "modern" tea industries).
In all tea gardens, seasonal changes occur throughout the year. These differences are reflected in the appearance, flavor, and aroma of the tea. The tea-garden manager must set the plucking schedule to accommodate for the rapidly growing tea leaves by the season and the month of the harvest, the weather, and what configuration of fresh leaf needs to be plucked.
Method of Leaf Manufacture
Bringing out desirable tastes and aromas from raw tea leaves requires a delicate balance of creativity; skill; and sound, fresh leaf. The steps of premanufacture, manufacture, and postmanufacture—that which is done to fresh tea leaf after it has been plucked—is the challenge of the tea-factory manager and a team of highly skilled workers.
The tea-factory manager must know the intricacies of the manufacturing process and be able to make adjustments due to weather-related delays, growth spurts in the leaf due to unusually hot weather, and so on. All the effort put into the leaf up to this point can be completely ruined by a misstep during leaf manufacture.
In the simplest terms, leaf manufacture is the process of turning freshly plucked leaf into finished tea. Each class of tea is manufactured according to a well-defined, precise sequence of steps (some manufacture takes longer and is more complicated than others) that is responsible for the differences in green, yellow, white, oolong, black, and Pu-erh tea.
Because the traditional ways of crafting tea differ from region to region, and because humans must work with what nature provides for them on any given day, no two teas will ever be exactly alike. In fact, taking into account all the influences of terroir, no two batches of even the "same" tea will ever be exactly alike.
The Craft of Tea Making: History, Culture, and Custom
The learned and skilled contribution of tea workers permeates every aspect of tea: from the tea garden to the tea factory to the tea table. How people do things and why they do them is the rich stuff of culture and tradition that establishes process and practice.
Crafting premium tea requires the senses of a skilled artisan who relies on his or her senses of sight, smell, touch, and hearing to determine how a tea is progressing. Young tea makers learn by observing the older generation of master tea processors make critical adjustments to the leaf during processing that the masters know are needed but perhaps cannot explain in words: hands feeling the leaf as it changes during the stages of manufacture, eyes watching the progress of the leaf as it yields to the heat and begins to hold its final shape, ears listening for the sounds of leaf responding to the heat of the firing pan, and nose detecting the development of aroma in the leaf as it comes closer to becoming tea.
Cultural habits, customs, and the history of a place also influence the teas made there. In many places, tea-making practices are carried out within the boundaries of established traditions. Much is preserved and little is changed: for great-tasting premium tea, this is a very good thing.
A simple cup of tea is no easy matter. Tea is as rich and intricate a subject as wine is for those who choose to explore its many layers. It appeals to our sense of adventure and the exotic; many books have been written about tea's scandalous history and glorious culture. In fact, tea drinking can be a great exercise in armchair travel—all that is required is a trip to a tea shop and a desire to explore the wonderful world of tea in your teacup.

The story of Thomas Kingsley. A little boy with golden brown hair, emerald colored eyes and a passion for flying. The day Thomas was born, his parents shifted to a new house. His room, decorated with picture frames, soft toys, baby mobiles and glow in the dark stickers. His room had a window and standing at arm's length from the window was a gigantic tree. The very same day Thomas was born, a mother bird laid four eggs.
Just like this, Thomas grew up watching birds lay eggs, watched the eggs hatch, watched the birds being fed, watched them fall, fly, and eventually die then it started all over again in a new cycle. At the age of six, he began to realize that birds could do something that humans could never do. Birds could fly. He then wondered how and later found out from his father that it was because birds have wings and humans don't.
Ever since that day, he wanted to fly. As naive as a child can be, he thought to himself, if a bird can fly, why can't humans? Why can't I? Day by day, his passion for flying grew stronger and stronger.. Soon, he was known as the weird kid in school and in his neighborhood. Teacher's was worried as all he ever talked about was flying, when asked what he would like to be in the future, his answer would always be "A bird" or "the man that could fly". This made him the laughing stock of the class.
At the age of 18, he was fascinated by things that could fly, such as airplanes, helicopters, parachutes and etc. So he tried all of them, the first being a parachute. He enjoyed every moment of it, he loved being in the air with the breeze in his face. But, he still wasn't satisfied, he never gave up on his dream of being able to fly.. Throughout the years, people kept telling him to just give up, that it was impossible for a human to fly..Once, there was a man who asked him.. ''Young man, why do you want to fly when it is simply impossible?" to which he replied with a beaming smile : ''Sir, why not? Why don't experiment? Why not give it a try first? It's an amazing thing. The man then said: " but if you give it a try, you would die.. that would be a waste of life wouldn't it? Thomas then said:"No. because then I would have died knowing the answer. I would have died trying it. I would have no regrets and I would be satisfied." This left the man speechless and smiling.
At the age of 24, Thomas fell in love with a girl who soon became his wife. Evelyn did not care about what people think or say about her husband. She loved how passionate he is about his desire to fly. A year later, they had a baby girl named Calia. However, he did not let family get in the way of his dream.. in fact, he thought Calia everything about flying, took her on an airplane and the zoo to learn about birds. Although his dream was to fly, he still had to earn money so he worked as an engineer to support his family.
As the years go by, Thomas tried everything but his experiments failed one after the other. Yet, he still did not give up hope. Many years later he started on a project that seemed very promising. It was a device that looks like a metal rod with many buttons on it.. it almost seemed like a tiny backbone which is no longer than 30cm. According to Thomas, this device would be attached to a person's back and would be controlled by the human mind. The person would then be able to control how high, low, fast, slow, where to go and when to stop etc. with his/her mind.
Being a former engineer, top student and having a diploma in science helped him to carry out this project along with some of his old friends. Thomas would spend every night working on this project without fail. In a blink of an eye, this project took a total of 30 years! But Thomas never neglected his wife and child, he always spends time with them despite how tired he was.
Sadly, everyone must die eventually. Thomas grew gravely ill and passed away peacefully one night. On the day of his funeral, many people attended with sad faces. They sat down and chatted among each other. One woman said to another: "such a pity he passed away before he could even finish his project" to which the other replied: "yes, to think that he spent 30 years on it!" Then, more and more conversations could be heard such as "I told him", "poor guy, he didn't get to accomplish his dream of flying" and "he died without living his dream". Then it was time for family members to give their speeches. His wife gave a short speech as she suddenly burst into tears.
Then, it was his daughter's turn. She walked up to the stage and started with: "My dad was a great man, he taught me so much and told me to never give up. Dad, you'll always be here in our hearts. I Love You. After wiping off the tears in her eyes, she took out a blue envelope from her dress pocket. She then said: "This letter was written by my father the night before he died. He passed it to me and wanted me to read this to all of you." She opened up the envelope and took out a piece of paper. Everyone then became silent as Calia began to read that letter out loud.
"Dear all, Thank you for being there for me., and thank you to those who believed in me . My beloved wife and daughter please know that I love you and I will watch over both of you. The reason I wrote this letter is because I know my time is up, and there are still so many things I never got the chance to say. So thank you my daughter for reading this. All my life, people tell me I can't or it's impossible to fly… they ask me, why would you have such a dream? They tell me, why don't you give up and find a new dream instead. Today, even when I have not much strength left in my arms, I must write this letter and answer all of your questions. You see, Only now I realized, I flew..Then, everyone began murmuring "What?" "How?" Calia continued.. "I realized that one does not need wings to fly… The first time I flew was when I told myself that I wanted to fly. I had desire and determination, without these two one cannot fly. The second time I flew was the time I rode the parachute. Sure, it was not real flying, but I had Courage. Without courage, how can one fly and take the risk of falling to the ground? The third time, was when I met my wife, I was in love. I had Love, love made my feet float off the ground! Haha. Then, I had my child Calia. While teaching her about flying, I was learning myself. I Learned. In order to fly better and higher.. one must learn to improve. I flew many many times… Calia paused to wipe her tears and smiled. She then continued: "Then I knew I had been flying all my life! You might say it was sad that I realized this only now, you might say that I never got to live my dream. I want to tell you, don't feel sorry for me, I never regretted anything because I have lived, I Flew. Thank you all for the support, love and for this amazing journey.. It was truly amazing flying with all of you. Now, don't feel sad, be happy for me as now I have a pair of wings. My time is up, I must fly high, high above the ground into the clouds. I lived my dream. Thank you all."
-Thomas Kingsley, the man who wanted to fly.....................Flew.
Thomas's device was displayed at the museum… when one day.. a young man said that he would very much like to help Thomas finish it……………….. THE END.

The holiday in Mauritius was lovely and the Villa - all that we expected and more. Beautiful open plan, easy living spaces. I loved the way that each person could have their private space - lovely rooms with gorgeous bathrooms in each -but there were also lovely communal areas so we could share some lovely meals and conversations. The pool over looking the ocean was beautiful and my favourite spot was the cabana with a book and a glass of wine! - Perfection! We really appreciated the lovely curries that Danielle made and Joelle and Mirella were lovely - very friendly and helpful and made our stay very pleasant. Would highly recommend the Villa -gorgeous house. My family are a bit spoilt with beautiful accommodation (as I do like to stay in luxury)-but their comment on seeing this house was "Wicked!!" - which is a pretty big recommendation from a bunch of teenage boys -it takes a bit to impress them! So thank you for a lovely holiday and Im sure Mauritius will be on our agenda another year!! Best wishes Narelle

Loving you is sweet;
You're the reason why
I can't forget
Your love that flies high.
Every night
I can't sleep
O this feeling of mine
So great.
You're the reason why
There is joy
In my heart
That beats only
For you.

BRCH Introduction
Building Resilience to Climate-Related Hazards (BRCH) project aims to transition Nepal's hydro-meteorological services into a modern service-oriented system that will build resilience today as well as adaptive capacity for the future. It intends to enhance government capacity to mitigate climate related hazards by improving the accuracy and timeliness of weather and flood forecasts for disaster preparedness by the general population and warnings for climate-vulnerable communities. The project will also support agricultural management information system services to help farmers mitigate climate-related hazards.
The PPCR is a program of the Climate Investment Funds (CIF), administered by the Multilateral Development Banks (in Nepal the Asian Development Bank, the International Finance Corporation and the World Bank) to support implementation of country-led programs and investments. The overall objective of the PPCR is to demonstrate ways to integrate climate risk and resilience into core development planning. Nepal accepted the offer to participate in the PPCR on May 13, 2009. The Building Resilience to Climate-Related Hazards (BRCH) project started on 20 June 2013 in Nepal after signing an agreement between the Government of Nepal and the World Bank on 30 April 2013.

Wokei's Pictorial Review(moving gif) of Havi B3 Pro 1
Pros: Amazing Soundstage and Separation ...3D like
Cons: Fitting issue and Tip rolling is a must ....amp required for best result
Havi B3 Pro 1 - Pictorial Review
Let me start by saying that ......the purchase of B3Pro1 has been long time coming ever since introduced by bhazard in the Chinese thread early last year (2013) and later its own Havi thread by Baycode. Recognition and respect to both guys for introducing Havi B3Pro1 to the headfi community.
When it was introduced at that time ...me still resisted buying for the simple fact ....that this B3Pro1 need an amp to shine ....at that point of time ...only had my 3 years old Blackberry phone and no amp so no buy B3Pro1.......
Been searching for an amp ever since ....last year June(Topping NX1) June(Little Bear B-2) and August(SMSL SAP-5s) ....with all that in place ..had to get ...must get with LMUE discount ....hell yeah about 51$ USD ....the wait and patience paid off.
For those following this thread ....please start from page one of this excellent thread started by Baycode ( http://www.head-fi.org/t/711582/havi-b3-pro-1-impressions-thread ) ....kudos to you man ....must read his review .....lots of details .......burn in time with detailed changes in sound .....in depth with excellent pictures and also autospy pic on how to dissect B3Pro1 ......LOL ......also other well written reviews by much more experienced headfi members.
For the price ...its a steal .....its a deal .....its a IEm that will achieved cult status someday ....me prediction .......for those still on the sideline ....give it a try ......if you appreciate audiophile sound with budget pricing .....you will know this baby oozes plenty of "YES" factor .
Me review will not be as detailed or meticulous of some of very learned headfiers have done for B3Pro1 but more of a pictorial review for the simpleton in me ...easy and fun .....not gonna touch of the packaging and the thousands of accessories that comes with Havi ...please refer to their previous reviews with excellent pictures.
Width and depth are the best me ever heard ....especially for a drum track used to test bass ....me can actually hear the drum beat travelling from the left to right with the precision of a heart surgeon .......LOL ......tooooo much ....I know .....but me don't care
3D imaging
The imaging of B3Pro1 is so 3D like which hard to explain ...you gotta have one in your ears to really get a feel ....maybe this will help visually....LOL
Imho ...me feel they are good but ....TBH.....of cuz they are better one out there in the market but as a total package ....its a winner.
Details and Separation
Me don't own high end gears as most me stuffs circa around 50$ and most of them are less than....damm even me Topping NX1 is cheaper than B3PRo1........but its THE BEST of me IEM among my gears and could even better than some much higher price IEM me have demo or heard from friends ..with the exception of cuz there are better one out there. YMMV
Instrument and Vocal Placement
The amazing thing with B3Pro1 ......you can actually locate precisely where the instrument and vocal are coming from ......its so surreal as if you can see the band in your head and where each band members are at what position.
Warning ...AMPING EFFECT
Without Amp
Sound is lifeless with weak source player and without amp .....without soul .....Count Dracula without fang .... Batman with no Robin ....Green Hornet without Kato to save his ass ......Kim Kardashian without the ass!
With Amp
B3Pro1 is like giving a kid a bag of sugar and see them run wild .....kickin' and screamin' ......everything just comes forward and so alive .....it actually entices you to really pay attention to listen to the song and that moment doesn't go away. This does look good huh ...LOL
Thanks for reading ...FYI ..this review was written last August 2014 and to show my LOVE for Havi B3Pro1..........Wokei style!

Russian Military Reform, 1992-2002 by Anne C. Aldis
Book DescriptionMilitary reform has featured prominently on the agenda of many countries since the end of the Cold War necessitated a re-evaluation of the strategic role of the armed forces, and nowhere more publicly than in Russia. Not since the 1920s have the Russian Armed Forces undergone such fundamental change. President Boris Yeltsin and his successor Vladimir Putin have both grappled with the issue, with varying degrees of success. An international team of experts here consider the essential features of Russian military reform in the decade since the disintegration of the USSR. Fluctuations in the purpose and priorities of the reform process are traced, as well as the many factors influencing change. Chapters analyse the development of Russia's security policy, structural reform of the services, the social impact of military service and experience of military conflict in Chechnya. Critical evaluations of the impact of social change on the Russian Armed Forces' capabilities and expectations complement the analysis of the on-going debate. Russian Military Reform, 1992-2002 will prove invaluable to all those interested in civil-military relationships and international security as well as to students of military theory and practice.

The Vector Labs are structured and organized under a new paradigm for Vector Core operations that is designed to provide investigators with a single source that can supply their vector needs throughout the development of the research programs. The labs utilize an integrated systems approach to speed the flow of vector technologies and information. These systems are designed to provide comprehensive resources to investigators so they can avoid many of the common pitfalls and delays that occur during the translational research period. These pitfalls and delays are caused when a specific vector-disease approach must transition from a basic research environment into the highly regulated and controlled processes of final preclinical safety testing and human clinical trials. The UNC Vector Labs will support MTCC investigators by providing expertise with vector design, construction, and development as well as by providing investigators with the viral vector reagents themselves. Investigators will be able to select the optimal type of viral platform (adenoviral, AAV, lentiviral, retroviral, PIV, cell-based, or plasmid) for the specific research in which they are involved. Investigators can also select from a range of standard quality grades (research, preclinical, or clinical), or can custom design intermediate grades as necessary. The combined staff at the Vector Labs and the Gene Therapy Center have prior experience in bringing to clinical trials virtually all the major viral platforms. Investigators will be able to utilize this experience to aid in creating drug development templates as their research progresses into the clinical arena.
The Vector Core will provide a broad range of services that will benefit public health. Its foremost mission is to provide gene transfer vectors that will treat people with genetic diseases. An important parallel mission is to develop gene transfer vectors that may aid in immunization of the general population to a variety of communicable diseases.
