Brands Finding Barriers to Social Networking
Many large brands are still struggling to become part of the social networking universe, according to a new study by Cleveland, Ohio-based WorkPlace Media.
Many large brands are still struggling to become part of the social networking universe, according to a new study by Cleveland, Ohio-based WorkPlace Media.
The study, which polled office Internet users, found that 55 percent maintained at least one social networking account (Facebook, MySpace, Twitter, LinkedIn, etc.), but of those respondents, just 43 said they accessed those accounts at work, and even for those with access, 78 percent said they spent under 30 minutes a on their site(s).
Moreover, the overall effect of a brand's presence on social networking sites was shown to be minimal in terms of impact and perception. Ninety-six percent of respondents said their opinion of a product brand didn't change if that brand had no presence on a social networking site, while only 11 percent of social networking users said they followed any major brand through a social networking site, and just 12 percent said their opinion of a brand changes if that brand maintains a social networking presence.
"When it comes to influencing brand perception and purchase decisions, the data shows that social networking still has a long way to go," said Stephanie Molnar, CEO of WorkPlace Media, a marketing solutions firm specializing in targeting people at work. "Most of our meaningful recommendations continue to be old-fashioned, word-of-mouth recommendations from friends, co-workers, and/or family."
Additional findings from the WorkPlace Media survey:
--89% percent of respondents have a Facebook account, as opposed to 40 percent on MySpace, 31 percent on LinkedIn and 18 percent on Twitter. When asked what appeals about social networking, the top response, cited by 89 percent of respondents, was that it "allows me to stay connected to friends/family."
--Of the 18 percent who said they acted on a business or product recommendation received through social networking sites, the leading categories were entertainment (53 percent), dining out (50 percent), groceries (23 percent), beauty care/cosmetics (21 percent), apparel (20 percent), electronics (15 percent) and pet care (15 percent).
The Brand Impact Social Networking Survey was conducted by WorkPlace Media in May 2009 among 753 American workers with access to the Internet at work. For more information, visit www.workplacemedia.com and click on "Complimentary Research."

Contractors across the nation are scrambling to figure out what to do about overtime—even after an injunction blocking the Department of Labor's new overtime rule, which was scheduled to go into effect Dec. 1.
Officially titled 29 CFR Part 541, the DOL's new rule would change exemptions to the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA)'s requirement for employers to pay overtime wages. Exempt employees include certain salaried white-collar workers, including executive, administrative, outside sales and computer employees. The rule would more than double the limit over which an employee may be exempt from the current level of $23,660 to $47,476.
In other words, if you have salaried workers earning less than $47,476 per year, you will need to pay them time and a half for all hours worked over 40 in a week, starting Dec. 1, 2016—if the rule is allowed to stand.
Earlier this month, 79 percent of contractors surveyed said they weren't prepared. Now, many are wondering if it really matters, especially in light of the election of a new president who could alter the rule.
Let's take a look at what the new rule would mean for contractors and what they can do to prepare, if and when it takes effect.
Many construction companies employ salespeople on a salary-plus-commission basis. Under the new rule, any salaried salesperson whose base salary is less than $47,476 and who were previously not exempt would be affected. Other types of employees such as construction office workers may also be included.
At first glance, the new rule may not seem like a big deal. When you examine the practical implications, it can get knotty—which is why the National Association of Home Builders and a number of other business groups joined forces in September to file a lawsuit challenging the overtime rule.
In many companies, employees who were exempt in the past are used to making phone calls at night, or checking emails on weekends or on vacation. Now those behaviors fall under compensable time—and the company suddenly will have to pay for hours it may not previously have been aware were being worked.
"What it really does is make employers in construction companies have to analyze all their policies and procedures and make sure they're up to date," says Alyssa Peters, an attorney with Constangy, Brooks, Smith & Prophete LLP in Macon, Georgia. "The main thing is, all of a sudden you've got these individuals who've spent their career being exempt. Anyone now in the nonexempt bucket will have to be taught how to track their time and realize they don't need to come in on weekends without prior approval or check their emails at home."
While this may sound straightforward, it's a case of easier said than done. It takes time and money to retrain employees, and employees who are not used to being paid hourly may resent the obligation. Companies may also find themselves scrambling to come up with an appropriate way to track the hours.
To complicate matters, what constitutes overtime pay may not be immediately apparent. "A lot of employers think if they pay $10 per hour that overtime is $15. But if the employee has nondiscretionary benefits like bonuses, you have to pay overtime on those bonuses, too," says Peters.
Opponents of the new regulations fear they may lead to increased litigation, such as class action lawsuits. Companies that don't follow the rules, knowingly or unknowingly, would be subject to penalties. They may also face wage and hour lawsuits with costly attorney fees and back overtime wages.
While there is no certainty that the rule will stand there is also no guarantee that the U.S. District Court will strike it down. As with any other business uncertainty, it pays to be prepared for any outcome.
"The first step is ensuring every employee is accurately classified as either exempt or nonexempt, so it's clear who is eligible for overtime under the new laws," advises Michael Silvio, CPA, tax director at Irvine, California-based Hall & Company CPAs. "A CPA should also work with businesses to determine how the changes will affect payroll and payroll taxes, project and plan for future wage increases, determine the impact to the company's financial health and help implement hour-tracking systems."
Next comes running the numbers. If the new rule will affect a number of employees at your company, it is especially important to determine how best to make the transition without breaking the bank. Possibilities include:
- Raising salaries above the new rule's threshold. If current salaries are close to the limit, it might be cost-effective for an employee to simply receive a raise rather than have to make all the changes required for compliance.
- Hire more full-time workers. If you have a number of affected workers, you may find it worthwhile to hire additional employees in order to avoid overtime.
- Use more part-time workers. The rule only applies to full-time employees, so companies that don't need enough hours to justify additional full-time help may choose to keep salaried workers off of overtime and hire part-timers to fill in as necessary. This solution also results in a more flexible workforce.
- Bite the bullet and pay the overtime. If you don't expect your employees to work much overtime, it probably makes sense simply to leave things as they are and follow the rule.
When calculating what to do, it's important to consider the long-term consequences. Employee turnover is extremely costly, and employee satisfaction and morale correlate to productivity levels. "There's a very strong human side to this. People don't want surprises in their pay, except for big fat bonuses," cautions Adam Calli of Arc Human Capital, a human resources consulting firm based in Woodbridge, Virginia. "Not communicating it well can really damage your level of employee engagement."
Contractors need to evaluate how cost-saving measures will affect employees as well as how new policies will be perceived by potential new hires. "In the long run, paying more for overtime may be the least expensive solution," Silvio says.
Communication is essential. Calli offers the following suggestions for a smooth transition:
- Talk to the management team first. People know about the new rule, but many are not clear about what to expect, especially now that the rule has been challenged. Supervisors need to be up to speed about why, what and when it's happening so that they can keep everyone calm and informed. Encourage them to keep the channels of communication open and be willing to answer questions and concerns honestly and as clearly as possible.
- Have very clear conversations with payroll people. Bookkeepers, accountants and office workers need to understand the rule. They will also need to be informed immediately of changes to it. Mistakes can add fuel to the fire in companies where the new rule is unpopular with employees. Errors can also result in penalties.
- Put it in writing. People don't always understand what they hear. Make sure every affected employee has in writing what to expect, including effective dates, amounts and expected protocol.
"It may be in your best interest to reach out to someone who can get you the guidance you need," Calli adds. "(If the rule goes into effect,) you have to be compliant by Dec. 1, so you need your answers now. The DOL won't cut you slack."

Introduction to Walt Whitman's "Leaves of Grass"
Publication History
Walt Whitman's first book of poetry, Leaves of Grass, was first published on July 4, 1855. Having worked as a printer, Whitman did most of the typesetting for the book, as well as entirely funding it's publication with his own money.
Finding the time
Whitman had his poems published when he found the time, mostly in between working other commercial publishing jobs. Of the first edition, 795 copies were printed.
Iconic Image of the Poet
The book was originally published without the name of an author, though an image of Whitman did appear in the book. The authors names was however included about 500 lines into the poem:
Walt Whitman am I, a Kosmos, of mighty Manhattan the son,
Turbulent, fleshy and sensual, eating, drinking and breeding;
No sentimentalist—no stander above men and women, or apart from them;
No more modest than immodest.

Sperry (1968)
Split Brain
11 pp's who had undergone radical surgery to sever the corpus callosum.
First, a man who had been suffering from seizures for 10 years but after the operation, was seizure free.
Words or images can be flashed on screen, to one hemisphere, for 1/10th of a second which is too quick for the hemisphere to move and register the information.
PP's were then given objects and asked to then find the same object in a bag with either the same or opposite hand.
Visual material shown to the RVF can be described in speech and writing but if shown to the LVF, the PP's insisted they didn't see anything.

@FisolaNYDN: Pacers fans are cheering the return of Roy Hibbert. If I'm the Knicks I'm cheering as well.
For real... we are getting the same kind of contact on the other end and getting no whistle.
Having Smith drive an elbow into Hibbert and draw a foul just isn't right.
Every time the thug goes down, he gets a foul. No love from the refs to PG though.
We always get screwed when Hayward Workman refs. He is why former players should not be allowed to become refs. There's huge conflicts of interest.
That timeout was way too late.
This offense is just pathetic, though. There's no rhythm, no strategy, no anything. It's just whateverdom, chaos. Stop giving Vogel credit for all this defensive genius and adjustments while ignoring this team's lack of anything but Paul George savior threes on offense.
@wallyball: Hibbert returning for #Pacers has been the key to #Knicks run. 13-3 run.
Hibbert is killing us needs to take the rest of the night off he is helping the Knicks more than us.
We need to hit open shots
Why does any bump count as a foul against the Pacers when we have a substantial lead?
To be fair Ian the "he can replace Hibbert if he goes down just fine" is not doing s*** either.
Tonight, all flags must burn, in place of steeples.
Autonomy must return into the hands of the people.
Stay in Novak's jersey!
Oy Vey!

meet Buddy, the Beagle!
Who is the subject of an oil painting created just this week for a local client.
Buddy is a good friend of my two Alsatian scamps, Darcy and Hannah, and it was whilst they were playing, his owner saw some of my work. If an artist, always carry cards and a phone or iPad you can show your work on. You just never know when you may get a commission.
After chatting and arranging a price (inc non refundable up front payment) I popped around for the camera shoot.
Buddy is beautifully trained and did all sorts of tricks for me whilst I snapped away. I showed the client a page of Google dog paintings and asked her to choose her favourite three. This gives me an idea of her colour preferences, plain or cluttered background, and even if she prefers portraits over full length.
We decided this way on full body sit position, plain background wearing a favourite red collar.
The background is a blend of white and various Browns. Simply done to create the feel of bushes behind and dirt path being sat on. The light falls softly from the top left so it is casting a shadow on the right.
The right eye as you face him did not have any eye showing in the photos but I felt this was too dark and so have slightly suggested one to bring the whole thing out and more 3d.
The whole painting has taken a week, from start to finish.

A 'Belizean' Conundrum: When 'Private' Clubs Aren't Truly Private
Any dyed-in-the-wool Libertarians out there looking for something to get riled up about today? We strongly suggest you check out Nathan Koppel's Law Journal column in Thursday's WSJ, which, in the wake of the kerfuffle over Judge Sonia Sotomayor's membership in the Belizean Grove, tackles a broader question: When is a club that considers itself private truly private?
We'll start the discussion here: Private organizations sometimes presume that they can exclude whomever they want, no questions asked.
Koppel writes that in one sense, they are right. Ironically, the more selective a club is, the more it is considered to be truly private and thus protected against antidiscrimination laws. In other words, a small, all-male group of stamp collectors who meet in a private home aren't unlawfully discriminating by not accepting women.
But clubs that presume they are private frequently turn out not to be in the eyes of the law in some states. . . .

Your answer is one click away!
The django-filer documentation makes no mention of how to correctly create folder and save the images savely inside.
My scenario:
I have different users that can upload images through the frontend. Right now every
FilerImage I create gets saved in the unspecified folder. How do I create a folder for every user programmatically?
And how do I move the uploaded
FilerImage instance in code without violating the private/public settings of the file?
Here is a solution I found out through fiddling around. It is very possible, that this is not the prgmatic way to handle this!
#Import Folder model
from filer.models.foldermodels import Folder
#Create Folder:
folder = Folder(owner=someuser, name="myname") #owner is required
#Create Subfolder
subfolder = Folder(owner=someuser, name="subfolder", parent=folder)
More onfo can be gained by looking inside the Source-Code of the Folder Model, here.

My wedding color theme is coral and silver. The flowers on this are peach, and the envelopes are silver so they match my color theme. The font is nothing fancy but readable. When you get anything printed with shimmery paper it looks beautiful - just get the invitation done this way. All of my party said how beautiful the invitation is, and honestly first impressions last. Remember, no one is really going to keep you invitation but you. So keep it simple. Btw, the invitation is 5x7 I think - so it's rather larger than I imagined. You invitation will not be lost and will be a bold statement to your invitees just based on it's size!"
"Feeling so satisfied with the menu (and we haven't even eaten yet) because of these amazing menu cards! WPD has not let me down throughout my entire wedding planning process. I am truly amazed at the excellent customer service and personal touch added to each item I have ordered so far. It's such a pleasure to know exactly where to turn to for perfect wedding stationary each and every step of the way. These menu cards are of great quality and sophistication. I especially love the size! They are not long and skinny, but rather just wide enough to fit nicely at the dinner table. Can't wait for dinner to be served with these cards as the perfect complement!"

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) A national Hispanic civil rights organization said Saturday it will not hold its 2009 annual convention in Kansas City because an opponent of illegal immigration was appointed to the city's park board.
The National Council of La Raza said its board of directors voted unanimously to pull the conference after being unable to reach an agreement with Mayor Mark Funkhouser over his appointment in June of Frances Semler, a member of the Minutemen Civil Defense Corps.
"Our decision is a clear expression of support for Kansas City's Hispanic community," said board chairwoman Monica Lozano. "An active member of the Minutemen should not be an official representative for a city that purports to believe in diversity."
NCLR officials consider the Minutemen, who are known for posting sometimes armed patrols on the Mexican border and picketing construction sites where illegal immigrants may be working, hostile to Hispanics. The Arizona-based organization maintains it simply wants U.S. immigration policies enforced.
Funkhouser, who has stood by Semler throughout the controversy, declined to comment Saturday afternoon on the group's decision, saying he was abiding by an agreement he reached with local Hispanic leaders during a federally mediated session Friday.
The NCLR and local groups had urged Funkhouser to force Semler to step down from the park board. Last week, NCLR said the it would still hold the conference in Kansas City if Semler agreed to at least cut her ties to the Minutemen.
But Funkhouser and Semler refused both demands. Semler and the Minutemen have said her political views have nothing to do with her service on the park board.
Janet Murguia, the NCLR's president and a Kansas City, Kan., native, said she was saddened not to bring the annual meeting to her hometown and felt Funkhouser "completely misunderstood this situation."
"The mayor has failed to take direct action and we hold him fully accountable," Murguia said.
Losing the 2009 convention is expected to cost the local economy in Kansas City an estimated $5 million to $7 million in revenue.
It's unknown whether the NCLR's decision will lead the NAACP to move its own convention from Kansas City in 2010, which officials estimated would cost the city another $9 million in lost sales.
NAACP officials have also criticized Semler's appointment and said they would consider NCLR's decision in their own deliberations.
Local economic development officials have also worried that the withdrawal could lead other groups to boycott the city.
A federal mediator met Friday to try to help reconcile Funkhouser and local Hispanic leaders at the urging off U.S. Rep. Emanuel Cleaver, a Kansas City Democrat.
After two hours of talk with the leaders at an area church, Funkhouser and the mediator, Pascual G. Marquez, regional director of the Community Relations Service, and made no comment.
Marquez said federal law prohibited him from discussing his efforts, while Funkhouser continued his policy of not publicly commenting on the controversy.
The half-dozen Hispanic leaders met for an additional 30 minutes by themselves but they also said they could not comment.

G'day peeps, man that week went quickly didn't it. Even though I have to work tomorrow I still love Fridays because I know I only have one more day to go, oh, and I get to share a bit more humor with you I found this next joke to be quite funny and even though I haven't seen it before I suspect that someone has manipulated the last line to reflect what they thought us poor Aussies were in for when Julia Gillard became Australia's Prime Minister, after virtually knifing Kevin Rudd in the back. I say that because it obviously takes place in an American classroom and so that last line probably referred to something that happened in the States.

Best Password Manager: LastPass
This is a discussion on the "LastPass" entry in the Best Password Manager SpiceList
5 Replies
Jun 24, 2011 at 7:05 UTC
Verecloud is an IT service provider.
The feature I like about LastPass is that it is web-based and integrated in Firefox, Internet Explorer, and accessible from my iPhone.
Jun 24, 2011 at 7:39 UTC
I've been using this for a while and the fact that I can access my password list from anywhere as well as have multiple profiles is the best feature for me.
Jun 24, 2011 at 7:48 UTC
i find it useful too.
profiles are great; i have a personal and work one, so i can easily wipe one without affecting the other should the need arise.
Jun 24, 2011 at 9:18 UTC
Easily accessible from my pc where it's hard installed, another workstation where I can just run the ieanywhere applet, my BB, my Android phone... and as a bonus the phone versions have offline modes so I don't need to have a connection out to access the last downloaded version of my pw's.
Great app.
Jul 8, 2011 at 1:23 UTC
Enterprise features are interesting particularly for disaster recover and business continuity:
Could be a good way to store that pesky Windows domain recovery password.
Nifty feature of sharing a password to another LastPass user, but not giving the password.
NOTE: LastPass can create passwords which are too complex and/or too long for the given application. Target applications do not always give feedback for such. Good to keep an eye on this & immediately verify logins are as expected.

A/N: Well, it's been a while. This was inspired by that shot in Hallows part 2, where Luna is standing behind Draco, and all of us were desperate for him to stay with the Hogwarts lot. Never written this pairing before, don't suppose I will again, but I had the idea stuck in my head. Just a quick note to those that read Before the Dawn, there's a seprequel, and it's taking a little bit of time to get it worked out, but I'll start posting in the next few weeks. It'll be called One by One. And after that shameless plug I'll let you get on and read the story. Let me know what you think! =]
Making Amends.
by Flaignhan.
He has to wait for a long time before he can do it. It has to be one of those nights where his father has slithered off to the other side of the manor, after his mother has bestowed one of her looks upon him that makes sure he is in no doubt that this is all his fault.
It especially has to be one of those nights where Bella is away, probably murdering children or blowing up hospitals (the thought makes a little bit of acid rise in his throat).
Even more especially, it has to be one of those nights where he is out of the country.
He is not brave. He has never been brave, and he doesn't particularly want to be. Brave people die young. He doesn't much fancy that.
But he doesn't particularly enjoy being a coward either.
He pulls on his dressing gown, pushes his feet into his slippers and leaves his bedroom, closing the door quietly behind him. His ears are on high alert for any noise as he creeps towards the staircase, and when one of the floorboards lets out a squeak that sounds so much louder in the dark than it would in the day, he nearly jumps out of his skin.
His heart pounds in his chest as he descends the stairs, his slightly sweaty hand grazing against the bannister. When he reaches the bottom he stops, he listens, and after thirty seconds of the hairs on his neck standing on end, he proceeds to the kitchen, squinting through the darkness. He pushes open the kitchen door, and lights his wand.
When he thinks back to first year, when he had to concentrate on the word as he said it, and now he barely even has to think it, he's rather proud.
Yes, congratulations Draco, you led death eaters into Hogwarts last year and ensured the death of Albus Dumbledore, but well done, you can light your wand tip without saying anything aloud.
Everything always comes back to that. That fateful night on the tower. He knows it will haunt him for the rest of his life.
And so it should.
He shakes off the feeling of a hand on his shoulder. He gets it whenever he thinks about that night. It's a cold feeling, but not unpleasantly so. It just is what it is, and then he does his best to ignore it.
Remembering that he's not supposed to standing around complaining to himself about the cards life has dealt him, he turns the handle of the pantry door slowly, there is a quiet clunk and it swings open.
Maybe, just maybe, this will go some way to easing the guilt that overcomes him every time he thinks of what happened. It's only a small act, but he can't do much else.
He's just trying to make amends.
He looks around, and spots a loaf of bread. Concentrating hard, like he did all those years ago when trying to master the Lumos spell, he whispers, "Germinio!"
Another loaf of bread pops into existence, and he places it carefully on the side, before duplicating some cheese and a couple of flasks of pumpkin juice. He takes them downstairs, to the cellar, his sense of fear growing with every step into the darkness. He reaches the barred door of the makeshift prison, and shines his wandlight into the room, trying to pick out the figures in the darkness. A pair of mucky trainers shifts in the darkness, and moving the light along he can see a mass of dirty blonde hair, and then, when he reaches her face, her pale eyes staring at him, her expression blank.
"Come here!" he hisses.
"Why?" she asks serenely. She doesn't seem all that bothered by the situation. Perhaps she has become accustomed to it, or perhaps she is tougher than she looks.
"I have food," he says, throwing a quick glance over his shoulder to make sure he is still alone. "Quickly!"
She gets up from the floor and walks quickly towards him. He passes the bread, cheese and flasks through the bars and she runs off into some dark corner, hiding it under a ragged blanket that she has apparently given up on trying to use for warmth.
He is about to leave when she returns, and sits down next to the bars. She pats the floor beside her, inviting him to sit too, and after a moment's hesitation, he complies. There is something about her that makes him feel safe.
"I know you're not a bad person," she says in that soft voice of hers. "I do know, Draco."
He doesn't know how to respond to this. He knows all the others at Hogwarts said she was weird, he's heard her being referred to as 'Loony Lovegood' on more than one occasion. She's odd, that's for certain. But she's not crazy. There's a difference.
Bellatrix is crazy.
Luna is quite sane in comparison. She's just very direct.
"Are you scared?" she asks.
"Are you?"
"Not really," she says airily. "If they were going to kill me they'd have done it already. I'm probably safer in here than I am out there."
"I can't let you out," he says quickly. "If I let you out they'll -"
"I know," she says, reaching a grubby hand through the bars and placing it on his forearm.
It's been a long time since anyone has actually touched him. The thought makes him feel more alone than ever, and as her hand disappears back between the bars, he almost wants to grab it and hold it, just to feel connected to another human being.
"Don't worry," she says at last. "Harry will win, I'm sure of it."
"You think?"
"Oh I know," she tells him, her eyes meeting his and staring at him so intensely that he almost finds himself knowing it too.
"But where is he?" Draco asks. "No one's seen him for -"
"Exactly," Luna says. "He's clever enough to hide from everyone You-Know-Who has got looking for him. He's not just going to be sitting around, he's going to be working on a way to defeat him. Don't you think?"
"Maybe," he says, though his tone gives away his lack of belief.
"I promise you Draco," she says, reaching through the bars again. This time she takes his hand, linking their fingers together. "This will not last forever."
He thinks back to her earlier question, and decides to answer it.
"I am scared. Really scared."
"I know," she whispers. She squeezes his hand tighter, and shifts towards him, resting her head against the bars, her other hand finding his forearm in the darkness and coming to rest on it. Draco leans his head against the bars too. He's not sure how long he sits there for, but when Luna tells him he'd better head back, he realises it's probably been too long, and the stiffness in his joints when he stands confirms it.
"There will always be a place for you with us," she says. "Don't forget that, Draco. Always."
He nods, and climbs the stairs. The bannister feels cold and unfriendly after he's spent so long holding her hand. He looks back when he reaches the top of the stairs. She's still leaning against the bars, her knees pulled up to her chest. She smiles softly at him, and after a moment that could have lasted several minutes, he tears his eyes away and starts his journey back to his bedroom.
He sleeps better that night than he has for a long time.
Honestly, he doesn't know what to do.
He wishes Luna were with him. He'd feel safer.
It's Harry, there's no doubt about it. No matter how badly he's been stung, or how disfigured his face is, Granger and Weasley wouldn't be found with anyone else, and he's surprised his father doesn't realise this.
"Is it him, Draco?"
Bella is gripping his arm tightly. He doesn't like the contact. It makes his skin crawl.
"I don't know," he says shakily. He's buying time, but for what, he doesn't know.
Potter is looking him straight in the eye and he can almost hear his voice inside his head.
Potter has to live. He has to be the one to defeat him once and for all.
"I don't think -"
"Draco," his father is gripping his shoulder now, his fingers digging into Draco's flesh. "If we are the ones to hand Potter to the Dark Lord, then all will be forgiven."
"But -" He looks to his mother, but she is looking at the floor, her hands clasped in front of her.
When Bella sees the sword, all hell breaks loose. His mother drags him from the room, and throws him into the dining room at the other end of the hall.
"Stay in here," she hisses, slamming the door behind her.
Granger will suffer, and although he has never liked her, the thought does not sit well with him.
However, they have time, and time is all Potter ever needs to wriggle out of things like this. Just like Luna said, he's not going to be sitting around.
He doesn't struggle with the wands. All Draco has been using his for in the last few months is to duplicate food for Luna and the others, but no doubt Potter's already rescued them.
He hopes so anyway.
A dreadful part of him hopes not, though.
He won't feel safe without Luna.
Potter is lying dead in Hagrid's arms. Somehow, Draco is with all the Hogwarts students, staff and Order members.
Potter is with the death eaters.
It is a bizarre switch. One that makes the lump in his throat grow, and his skin tingle unpleasantly.
Bella is beside herself with glee, cackling madly and dancing about. She is completely unhinged. He's known that for a while, but now, now he sees how deep the madness goes.
"I now invite you to declare yourselves." He is talking. He's just as ecstatic as Bella, but he's controlling it a little better.
He looks towards the sound of the voice and sees his mother, her eyes begging him to come and join her.
His father's tone isn't so inviting. It is the sound of a desperate man. He's not sure he wants to be associated with that.
There is a hand on his shoulder. It is warm. He doesn't need to look up to know who it belongs to.
"Now is the time to be brave," she whispers, so quietly that no one, even in the deadly silence, can hear her except him.
He feels brave. Almost.
Voldemort is looking at him with a curious leer on his face, his wand slightly raised.
"What is this, Draco?" he asks silkily. "Are you refusing to join us?"
The hand on his shoulder squeezes, but not uncomfortably. It spurs him on.
"Dissent will not be tolerated." His voice crawls over Draco's skin like spiders, and despite the hand on his shoulder he feels sick.
He doesn't feel scared though.
"Your last chance, Draco."
Feeling braver than ever, Draco makes eye contact, and says nothing.
"Draco, please!"
"Quiet Narcissa! The boy has made his choice."
All his life has been leading to this moment. Brave people die young, he's known that all along. He's amazed Potter has managed to last as long as he has.
Voldemort's wand moves into position, and he knows the words that are coming next. He knows he has to push Luna away, just in case, and he knows where he's going he won't be forced into things he doesn't want to do. It's almost a relief.
Then Potter leaps out of Hagrid's arms, and runs for it. Voldemort follows, and Draco is spared.
Luna takes his hand, and they go and join the battle.
Today is the day he finds out that making amends is the most important thing in the world.
He has his place, at Hogwarts, with the others, but most importantly, with Luna.
The End.

Bacteria that can live on lower than the acid requisites soar dramatically in number; those that cannot, die. Potent chemicals are released, which may trigger the laminitis.Post ads:

So, to mute the speculate of laminitis it is meaningful to constrict the bodily function of fructans. The fructan delighted of the ley is influenced by factors such as the magnitude of sunlight, fundamental measure and stage of advance. Fructans are recovered in decisively greater amounts in the vine than in the leaves. The amount of fructans in progress in the graminaceous plant also varies during the day. Generally at hand is smaller number at darkness and proterozoic in the morning.
Certain grasses, such as as timothy, incline to have large fructan molecules. These may be hard more easy in the hindgut and so may be safer than different grasses.
Some horses and ponies are more than unresistant than others to the proviso. One horse may be able to gap himself in need nascent lamintis; another may go descending near the illness at the initial taste sensation of turf. Recent investigation has found a way of distinguishing those ponies that are promising to work on inflammation. All that is necessary is the pony's must score, and a innocent body fluid sample. Ask your vet for facts (or see ). There is as well many coherent attestation that ponies near redness are more than possible to go from mares that have themselves had laminitis.
Identifying supersensitized ponies allows them to be managed near signal consideration. This may cut the venture of them sprouting redness.
So what can you do to downsize the venture of laminitis?
- Restrict feeding in spring and autumn when the fructan and hose down meltable carbohydrate levels are high.
- Turn horses onto ley latish at dark and bring forward them in previously mid-morning, so they are feeding when the fructan satisfied is probable to be last-place.
- If you can, opt for ley that is more often than not touched or cut (the grass stems be to have high fructan complacent) and contains species such as timothy that emanate demean levels of fructans.
- Don't use plant material eating (i.e. after it has been cut for hay) - because the stems are promising to have a high fructan placid.
- Don't twirl horses onto ley that has been naked to ice and refulgent sunlight. (The sunbeams produces energy, which the lawn cannot use for improvement because of the cold, and so it is hold on as fructan).
- Consider exploitation a opening to ban the equus caballus consumption too overmuch. Or, if you really cannot rule the lawn body process any opposite way, hold the equus caballus in the firm and food hay beside a vitamin/mineral expand.
Remember that it is so substantially greater to lift staircase now to rule out inflammation occurring, than to have to nourishment your equid or equus caballus for this agonizing unwellness.

BARSTOW — Authorities arrested a convicted felon and a 32-year-old woman in connection to a shooting in the 100 block of Cal Avenue last month.
Barstow police arrested Andrew Eloy Perez and Celeste Jocelyn Begay after detectives learned Thursday that he was at a home in the 200 block of North Third Street. Perez, 23, had been identified as the suspect in the Dec. 20 shooting that left a man in the hospital after he was shot in the hip, Barstow police Capt. Andy Espinoza Jr. said.
The detectives arrived and said Begay refused to cooperate and told them Perez was not at the location. The detectives entered the home and found Perez hiding in an upstairs bedroom and placed him under arrest.
"Detectives searched the residence for the firearm used in the shooting but did not locate it," Espinoza said.
Begay was arrested on suspicion of harboring or aiding a felony suspect/accessory. Booking records show she also was booked on suspicion of attempted murder.
Espinoza said officers responded to Barstow Community Hospital on Dec. 20 and learned a man was shot in the hip.
"The victim reported that prior to the shooting, two people, a male and a female, came to his trailer requesting to use his phone," Espinoza said. "He denied their request and the two left. Seconds later the shooting occurred. … Evidence technicians processed the shooting scene and obtained additional evidence indicating someone had shot at the trailer striking the victim. Detectives were able to locate and interview witnesses who observed the shooting and positively identified the suspect as Perez."
During the investigation detectives learned that Perez was a possible suspect in another shooting that occurred on Dec. 17 in the area of Flora and Avenue D. Espinoza said detectives will seek additional attempted murder charges to submit to the San Bernardino County District Attorney's Office for the Dec. 17 shooting.
"The investigation revealed that Perez got into a dispute with a female acquaintance while riding in a vehicle with two other occupants," Espinoza said. "Perez became upset, exited the vehicle, retrieved a handgun from his person and shot at the vehicle, striking it. No one in the vehicle was injured. Perez then fled on foot. Evidence Tech Sabrina Ellis processed the vehicle and the scene and obtained evidence of the shooting. Further investigation by detectives revealed additional evidence and witnesses who positively identified Perez and the suspect in the second shooting."
Perez is a convicted felon who was sentenced to serve one year in jail and four years of probation after accepting a plea deal with prosecutors in 2014.
According to previous reports, Perez pleaded guilty to assault with a deadly weapon after he stabbed a Barstow man in February 2014.
Police said Perez stabbed the man in the chest and stomach with a large kitchen knife during a brawl that involved approximately 20 people in a residential neighborhood in the 200 block of West Buena Vista Street.
Perez fled before returning to surrender to police. He later told police he acted in self-defense.
The victim was found with the knife stuck in the left side of his stomach and was treated at the scene before being airlifted to Arrowhead Regional Medical Center in Colton with serious injuries, where he underwent successful surgery and was then placed in the intensive care unit.
Perez was also scheduled to appear in a Rancho Cucamonga courtroom Friday morning for arraignment on two counts of misdemeanor battery. Court records show the incident occurred on March 21 and the DA's office filed criminal charges on Oct. 26.
Perez was being held at High Desert Detention Center in Adelanto in lieu of $1 million bail. Begay was being held at West Valley Detention Center in Rancho Cucamonga also in lieu of $1 million bail.
Booking records show both Perez and Begay are expected to appear in a Victorville courtroom Monday afternoon if criminally charged by the DA's office.
The investigation is ongoing and anyone with information is asked to call the Barstow Police Department at 760-256-2211. Those wishing to remain anonymous can call the WeTip hotline at 800-782-7436 or visit www.wetip.com.

When Elder-Care Duties Lead to Sibling Rivalry
An elderly parent's health problems can complicate anyone's juggle, they can also torpedo relationships among brothers and sisters.
One of the most common causes of sibling elder-care conflicts is that one sibling winds up taking almost all the responsibility, says Paula Spencer, a senior editor of Caring.com, a website on caregiving issues.
"I can't get over the way my siblings have treated me or my sick mom," wrote one poster on this forum on the topic on Caring.com. The poster, Noreen, says her siblings offered no help in providing care for their mother.
Another flash point: Who controls Mom's or Dad's money? If one sibling is managing a parent's finances without oversight, charges of financial abuse can crop up easily.
