The Struggle Behind The Struggles (13 Of 15) by Jim Henry
This content is part of a series.THE STRUGGLE BEHIND THE STRUGGLES (13 OF 15)
"Demonic Influences"
Rev. Jim Henry
Daniel 11:1-45
April 22, 1998: ABC special program on
"Exorcism." The program had the correspondents for ABC
and with them they had a doctor, a priest, and a nurse
who was a scientist. Also present were two young men
who had been studying exorcisms and other supernatural
For instance, they found that the room
temperature where the exorcisms were being held
dropped ten degrees. They found other supernatural
phenomena that could not be explained and, though they
were scientists, it was very evident that they were
seeing and experiencing some things that were very
At the end of the program on ABC it was very
interesting to me to hear the observation of the ABC
journalist. After listening to the scientists, the
doctor, and the clergy he said, "There's something
going on out there in the spiritual world that cannot
be explained in human terms. There's something beyond
us that is happening out there." A fascinating
In Daniel, chapter ten, we're going to have just
a glimpse of what one theologian has called "the
struggle behind the struggles"--that thing that's
going on out there in the invisible world, the demonic
and the godly--It is happening all around us. So open
your Bibles to Daniel. Chapter 10 introduces us,
really, to chapters eleven and twelve. It is a look at
the immediate present, which Daniel is going to be
coming to grips with. It's going to show the distant
future and it will also deal with the nation of
Israel. In chapter ten we have the last time that
Daniel is given a prophetic vision. Here we will pick
up with this vision of this struggle within the
struggle; the demonic influences in the world around

Now that wsjt-x is using split
Expand Messages
- From the 1.1 manual
"The Tx dial frequency (VFO B) is offset in 1000 Hz steps, and the generated audio frequency is adjusted so that it always falls in the range 1000 2000 Hz. With CAT and Split Tx enabled on the configuration screen and your transceiver set to Split mode, frequency control will be handled automatically."
As my 2000 Hz audio frequency is producing significantly more power output than my 1000 Hz, I am constantly adjusting the output level of my sound card to maintain 5 Watt.
So I was thinking, as dial frequency is controlled by the software, could an option be added to narrow down the audio frequency range ?

The 23-year-old is set to quit the Spanish La Liga side this summer and has been heavily linked with a move to Arsenal as Arsene Wenger considers a replacement for unsettled star Cesc Fabregas.
But Tottenham are also keen on signing him and revealed that chairman Daniel Levy is involved in talks about bringing him to White Hart Lane.
Redknapp said: "(Mata) is a player that we like. So do Arsenal and so do other clubs. I went to watch him when England Under-21 played Spain and I thought he looked fantastic.
"The chairman has been dealing with it so where it is I don't know - I don't deal with them transfers.
"I wouldn't want to say that it isn't happening in case we sign him tomorrow and you all say 'thanks Harry', but he's a player we like."
Should a move for Mata materialise, it would further fuel speculation over the future of Luka Modric, who is attracting interest from a host of clubs including Chelsea.

No. 2 LSU opened the year with a 197.125 in a win over Iowa, while No. 24 Arizona State, unranked to begin the year, beat Southern Utah with a 194.200.

No. 2 LSU opened the season with a 197.125-193.300 win over Iowa on Friday in Baton Rouge, La. The 14th consecutive meet the Tigers scored a 197.000 or higher, LSU claimed individual titles on all four events and the all-around and recorded a 48.975 or higher on every apparatus. Senior Jessie Jordan won the all-around title along with victories on floor and beam to earn the season's first SEC Gymnast of the Week honor. The Tigers are led by D-D Breaux, in her 37th season in Baton Rouge. The 2014 National Coach of the Year has guided LSU to back-to-back Super Six appearances.
Arizona State comes to Lexington ranked No. 24 after a season-opening win over Southern Utah on Friday. The Sun Devils earned a 194.2-193.925 comeback win. ASU earned individual event titles on balance beam and floor as Allie Salas posted a 38.750 to win the all-around. Stephanie Miceli scored a 9.800 to win beam and Natasha Sundby's 9.900 was a meet-high on floor. Rene Lyst is in her first season as head coach of the Sun Devils after spending 13 years as co-head coach at Arkansas.
Kentucky opened the 2015 season with a 194.975-194.325 win at No. 24 Washington Monday night The Wildcats improved to 2-0 all-time against the Huskies in their first-ever visit to Seattle. The 194.975 team score moves UK up to 13th in the national rankings after the first week of the season.
UK used a strong team performance on all events and responded to adversity to record the season-opening win. Senior Kayla Hartley led Kentucky with team-high scores on two events.
The Wildcats counted a fall on their first event, uneven bars, and trailed 48.700-48.500 after the first rotation, but they quickly responded on vault, the second event. UK's 48.900 on vault chipped away at Washington's already-slim lead. Kentucky trailed by 0.050 points at the halfway point, but a 48.825 on floor gave the Wildcats a lead that wouldn't go away.
On balance beam, the final event, UK sealed the victory with a 48.750. Kentucky had one fall on beam, but like the two falls and an early deficit to open the competition on bars, the Wildcats responded with two strong routines by sophomore Taylor Puryear and Hartley to close the meet.
Hartley led UK on bars and floor, both with a 9.825. Junior Khadijah Hudson and freshman Sydney Waltz posted team-best scores of 9.825 on vault, while freshman Cori Rechenmacher earned a 9.825 on balance beam to lead the Wildcats.
In front of nearly 6,000 fans, Kentucky defeated three teams and won the annual Excite Night at the Kentucky Classic event to open the 2014 season in Memorial Coliseum on Jan. 10.
The Wildcats scored a 195.000, ahead of No. 15 Penn State's 193.975. West Virginia placed third with a 193.700, while Ball State recorded a 190.875. Audrey Harrison won the all-around title with a 39.075 along with a win on beam with a 9.850. She joined Kayla Hartley with a meet-best 9.825 on floor. The Wildcats claimed the top scores on vault with a 48.600, beam with a 48.675 and floor with a 48.950. UK's uneven bars score of 48.775 was second to West Virginia's.
The win came in front of one of the largest crowds in UK gymnastics history. The 5,839 in attendance marked the largest since 6,875 in 2007 and the third-largest UK home crowd since at least 1997.
The Wildcats return to the road for a dual meet at Georgia on Jan. 24 at 4 p.m. ET. The contest between the two SEC foes will air live on the SEC Network + in addition to airing on ESPN2 the following day at 7 p.m. Bart Conner, Kathy Johnson-Clarke & Amanda Plufgard will be on the call from Athens, Ga.
This season, the UK gymnastics team will dedicate each meet to Kylie, who has stage 4 high risk neuroblastoma. Kylie is almost 3 and was diagnosed a year ago.

The Battle of Iwo Jima, a major event in the Pacific Theater of World War II - and one of the bloodiest in United States history - began on February 19, 1945. But what happened two days earlier has largely been a footnote - until now....
On February 17, Landing Craft Infantry 449 was among a dozen gunboats helping to prepare the area for their invasion two days later. US military leaders thought that they had weakened Japanese forces in the area. However, from the towering slopes of Mount Suribachi, Japanese forces opened fire, forcing the US commanders to recalculate battlefield plans. They shelled and bombed the newly discovered enemy positions. It was a move that saved countless lives two days later, when tens of thousands of marines stormed the beach.
The Heart of Hell is the untold story of the crew of Landing Craft Infantry 449. Based on 130 exclusive interviews with sailors who survived the battle, the families of the men killed in the fight, and more than 1,500 letters the sailors mailed to loved ones during their long months at sea, this is a story of duty, brotherhood, love, and courage.
©2016 Mitch Weiss (P)2016 Tantor
I teach. I Listen. I trust your judgment as a fellow listener.
"Important History, but Not a Compelling Story"
First, let me say that what happened to these sailors during the Battle of Iwo Jima was horrific. I am not discounting their tragedy one iota.
However, this story is essentially a summary of family and love letters that document the feelings, fears, and emotions of the men of Landing Craft Infantry 449 as they prepared for the Iwo Jima invasion. Their actual time at "battle stations" was about nine minutes. So, essentially, twelve of the fourteen hours of this audiobook is a recitation of what is contained in those letters sent home and those sent to the sailors of Landing Craft Infantry 449.
I listened because I respect and honor the work these men did in supporting UD Teams, but as a recapitulation of the Battle for Iwo Jima, this book is not an important work. It is a history that binds together human dramas outside the battle zone (other than the nine minutes of terror).
Listen to this book if you want to know the intimacies of about a dozen men. If you want a book that documents Iwo Jima as a strategic target and the men who fought to take that island I suggest, "Flags of Our Fathers," by James Bradley and Ron Powers.
Say something about yourself!
"Fantastic Book !!!"
Fantastic book very well written and very riveting !! The book flows very well and keeps you excited. Knowledge of US Marines and IwoJima is beyond GREAT . Highly recommend !!!
"Heroes all of them"
I am amazed each time I read of these heroes of WWII. How they gave their all to win the war. My heart aches for both the dead and the wounded. They are heroes, all of them! All gave some, some gave all!

Maker R.J. Reynolds Tobacco Company
Maker Details •In 1913, Reynolds Tobacco introduced Camel cigarettes, containing a blend of several different types of tobacco – a blend that would come to be called "the American blend." Supported by a unique introductory "teaser" advertising campaign, Camel became the first nationally popular cigarette in the United States. On March 24, 1927, in Winston-Salem, an announcement was made that Brown & Williamson was being acquired by London-based British American Tobacco p.l.c. Prince Albert is one of the more popular independent brands of pipe tobacco in the United States; in the 1930s, it was the "second largest money-maker" for Reynolds. More recently, it has also become available in the form of pipe-tobacco cigars. The tobacco was personally named by R. J. Reynolds after Edward VII, who was known as Prince Albert before being crowned King.The portrait of Prince Albert was based on one acquired by Reynolds at a tea party with Mark Twain.

In: Drechsel, P, Scott, CA, Raschid-Sally, L, Redwood, M and Bahri, A, (eds.) Wastewater Irrigation and Health: Assessing and Mitigating Risk in Low-Income Countries. Earthscan/IDRC , London , 89 - 100 . ISBN 978-1-84407-795-3
This chapter reviews developments since the WHO Guidelines for the safe use of wastewater in agriculture were published in 2006. The six main developments are: the recognition that the tolerable additional disease burden may be too stringent for many developing countries; the benefits of focusing on single-event infection risks as a measure of outbreak potential when evaluating risk acceptability; a more rigorous method for estimating annual risks; the availability of dose-response data for norovirus; the use of QMRA to estimate Ascaris infection risks; and a detailed evaluation of pathogen reductions achieved by produce-washing and disinfection. Application of the developments results in more realistic estimates of the pathogen reductions required for the safe use of wastewater in agriculture and consequently permits the use of simpler wastewater treatment processes.

pichart is a GUI for pigrammar, an assembler and programmer for picloader-programmed devices. pichart offers a user-friendly interface, making programming PIC chips easy. It looks like a flow chart designer and permits operations like reading from the device's serial port, writing on it, setting ports' value, and setting timers. It also permits programming directly during execution.
picoFlamingo is a portable presentation solution initially developed for the BeagleBoard and picoDLP projector, but it can be executed in any OpenGL ES 2.0 compliant system. The project can be considered a reduced version of Priscila, a GNU/Linux based presentation system that defines the presentation slides in a 3D space. Slides can contain text, images, live video streams, and 3D objects that can be animated in a 3D space and dynamically updated to produce advanced user interfaces. When used in combination with NetKitty, picoFlamingo can be controlled remotely through any Bluetooth or network enabled device. Simple remote control tools for Symbian S60, OpenMoko, and Android 1.5 are provided. A set of small applications for video streams and voice commanding are also provided.
Picogen is a program to create, design, and render artificial 3D terrain scenes. It is currently not very nice to non-programming-end-users, as the heightmap definition is a program with a LISP-like syntax. It aims to be similar to the Terragen program and provide a free and unrestricted alternative to it.
pidgin-osd is an application that uses the xosd library to print various events on the X root window on receiving incoming messages from pidgin. It is based on gaimnosd 0.7 (the last publically available version). It is mostly like the gaimnosd plugin; the only difference is that an implementation for UTF-8 conversion to the current used locale was added.
pidgin privacy please is a pidgin plugin to stop spammers from annoying you. You can block messages from certain users, block messages from people who are not on your contact list, and suppress repeated authorization requests. Optionally, senders of blocked messages can be notified with an auto-reply.

The 2006 Midterm Midtacular Election was an astounding cultural victory for God and the United States Republican Party.
Thanks to an insightful plan by electoral masterminds Karl Rove and Ken Mehlman, Republicans nearly ran the board on election night. They turned the electoral map a deep cardinal red and did it in a way that completely bamboozled the liberal media. The fools at the media thought they were seeing a "blue tsunami." Nothing could have been farther from the truth.
The ingenious planEdit
Rove and Mehlman got together over brandy and show tunes almost a year before the election to plot strategy. They were worried about something they called the "six year itch," a rash that sometimes develops during a President's second term.
To overcome the slight danger that some Americans might actually decide to vote for a Democrat, Rove and Mehlman recruited dozens of Republicans to run as Democrats. The plan worked like a charm as dozens of these new pseudo-Democrats won throughout the country.
The House strategyEdit
Rove and Mehlman recruited so many fake Democrats to run for Congress that control of that body appeared to shift to Democrats. Of course, that's not really what happened.
Lobbyists on K Street began to pour into nearby watering holes as the results trickled in. They began to drink heavily, fearful that their jobs (and their six- or seven-figure salaries) would disappear under this blue wave.
But the mood brightened in the bars as word about the real story filtered in from Tom DeLay's swanky new offices down the street. When the lobbyists realized that the GOP majority had actually increased, they were seen celebrating by burning earmarks.
"Hey," said one, holding up a burning earmark worth millions to his clients, "we don't need these anymore. If these new fake Dems act like real Republicans then we'll be able to get new earmarks worth billions for a dime-bag and a couple o' Redskins tickets."
"We thought the revolution was over," said another lobbyist in an Italian suit. "But it turns out that we can stay the course, and keep on going like we always have."
Even some of the commentators on Fox News, who should have known better, expressed concern that Nancy Pelosi, a San Francisco liberal will now become Madame Speaker. They need to sign up for a gut-check. Sure, Pelosi gets the title, but that's all she gets.
To further the amazing Rove/Mehlman plan, Tom DeLay had graciously agreed to retire from Congress. DeLay is now free to run the new GOP super-majority as "ghost-whip" from an office on K Street. He's already started sending coded messages to his new troops through the many interviews he's given to the media.
According to the Rove/Mehlman master-plan, Pelosi's apparent ascension to power also helped the genius GOP brains dispose of the messy little problem of the supposed Mark Foley page-play cover-up. Ex-Speaker Dennis Hastert and his roommates had gotten themselves all tangled up in that little matter. But Hastert and his roomies are old news now. The Press isn't going to care about that stuff now that they have a San Francisco liberal with a bizarre laugh to play around with.
The Senate strategyEdit
Rove and Mehlman thought of everything in their master plan. They were vaguely concerned that the Press might actually grow a backbone and detect outlines of their plan. To prevent that, their game-plan created a diversion: Recounts in two key Senate races.
They had recruited several pseudo-Democrats to run in Senate races, but also arranged for two of those races to end up with razor-thin margins. That completely distracted the media, especially because one of those races was in Montana where satellite trucks had to be dragged in by elephant caravans.
Just as Rove and Mehlman expected, the media jumped on the recount stories. They spent days after the election making splashy graphics and theme music for endless profiles of Jim Webb, George Allen, Conrad Burns-Abramoff, and John "Jon" Tester.
The ground gameEdit
Rove and Mehlman left nothing to chance. They recruited fake Democrats even for gubernatorial and local races. Several of their fake Govs won. To keep the media commentators guessing, however, they allowed sort-of real Republicans to win in places like Florida and California.
Even though he's not really a Republican, Arnold Schwarzenegger is great on camera and therefore kept his job in Cauliflower.
Although they came to regret it in the last days of the campaign, Rove and Mehlman allowed their ex-BFF Charlie Crist (all of whom are single) to run as a Republican in Florida. He won, and will succeed Florida's Best Governor Ever, Jeb Bush.
Keep 'em guessingEdit
Rove's well-oiled White House leak machine jumped into overdrive to keep reporters off the scent of the true election story.
It fed out stories about a crestfallen and depressed west wing staff to help assure reporters that there really had been a "blue wave." That kept reporters from noticing that most staffers -- and Rove especially -- were giddy about the success of their secret plan.
Rove also dropped hints to several reporters that The President was about to dissolve Congress. Reporters tripped over themselves to print that juicy tidbit which made its way into several prominent web publications.

Formatting issues continue years after first reports of issues
The ongoing issues that are effecting the visual and html editor, also known as Tiny MCE, has been reported on this forum for years, yet we still do not have a fully functional editor, without disabling large portions of the code base, I searched this forum for some explanation and or a fix, however there does not appear to be any real solution other than removing the editor and stripping out the code from the process, this seems unproductive and should be addressed.
I include several threads that are in some cases years old, yet this problem still exists today, in version 3.2 is there not a solution to this issue, It is really frustrating to spend time developing code then to have that code removed, as some kind of misguided method of (cleaning up) after a faulty editor,
For example if you enter the html mode, and enter in line breaks, and or other html code, such as a you tube video, it will stip it out at a later time and date, perhaps long after you have lost track of that particular code or video it does this without asking it is really irritating, when you have code that you "think" is saved in the database and it gets removed without any indication that it ever existed.
Can we please have this issue fixed, I would like to be able to develop my own html code, from my own sources, I could just upload it manually but that sort of defeats the need of using the platform to begin with.
See these previous threads concerning this ongoing issue.

Spiez, another idea of Switzerland
Bountiful vineyards, verdant hills, snowy mountains and the emerald Lake Thun attract nature lovers to the tiny Swiss town of Spiez. Take a gentle cruise on the lake, hike around the Bernese Highlands or take a peek inside Spiez Castle's 13th-18th-century rooms.
Go for a 14 kilometres hike on the coastal footpath which leads to Faulensee or get on the "Spiezer Zügli", the little train of Spiez, to appreciate a relaxing tour.
You can also discover the art and the history of the viticulture in Spiez in the homeland and vine Museum located in a charming old house. The sport lovers will feel like home here: in winter you can reach the most attractive ski resorts in the region and in summer you can try your hand at cycling, fishing or windsurfing.
Finally, let yourself be tempted by the fish specialities and a glass of local wine in a restaurant facing the lake.

The overall train was comfortable but it would have been better if i could use WIFI on the train. Mobile Network is not available in the tunnels and you face this issue quite often. Rest it was OK.
- "An American in Italy" Charlotte r. 30/06/2015
I am from the United States. The rail system you have in Europe is fantastic. I love it that dogs can travel too and people manage their animals wonderfully. I wish USA could take a lesson from you. The trains are relaxing and they ran on time, every single time. Great experience.
- "our journey " Aniruddha Dattatraya r. 06/10/2014
if anyone wants to experience the benchmarks of comfort and cleanliness as well as ontime performance, one must travel by the Trains in europe....awesome experience for us, anytime better than flying!
- "Comfortable and Punctual Ride" Isha g. 04/09/2014
Comfortable and convenient ride from Switzerland to Milan. For the price of reservation ( 20 Euros for two people with 1st class eurail global pass) it was really nice. Trains are really good and clean. they have adequate space for luggage storage also. Information displays within the train were really informative about the next trains from the arriving stations. Really comfortable for the passengers who need to change trains at the stations.Overall very nice.

- "Holiday in Europe with Eurail " Muralidhara g. 02/06/2014
Recently we visited Switzerland and Italy on holiday and took a Global select four country Eurail pass for train travel. We travelled on trains for travelling between different places. It was a very good experience as it gave as a good view of the countryside. The journeys were comfortable and the Eurail pass provided us a lot of flexibility in planning our itinerary.

Seats is fairly comfortable. Luggages space is not big, but enough. 5mins interchange at Basel is alright. Just get luggages ready before the train stop.
- "Comfortable ride" Shu Ming l. 25/12/2013
Comfortable ride and good convenient timing, however, I will appreciate if there can be devices to help passengers loading luggages onto the train rather than carry on.

- "INTERLAKEN OST - SPIEZ, On 201" . 15/06/2013
I found the trip very confortable. Infact all my trips were good, comfortable and convenient. I would say trains are a bit pricey in Eurpore but they are confortable for sure.
- "Poor activation process" Steven n. 02/06/2013
It took too much time to wait in queue to activate the rail pass in Milan Central Station, so need to allow at half an hour before train departure. The process could be improved if there was a separate counter or activation process could be done on trains. I almost missed the train due to waiting for pass activation.
- "Italy to Swiss" Kwong Wai m. 27/05/2013
Overall is acceptable and convenient. However during the booking, I have faced some difficulties about the computer. I have tried to ask assistance with the booking agent but can't get any help. Finally I have to solve the problem by myself whcih waste lots of time.
- "not so good" Mustafa Amir m. 22/05/2013
move from city by train in Europe is something amazing, however the trip was good but I was expect more.

3. Harry Potter.
James had a wide smile on his face as he entered the restaurant to meet Martin and
Hetty for lunch.
"James! Hi. We were beginning to think you weren't going to turn up," Hetty said as he sat down. "How are you?"
James sighed happily.
"Shagged to within inches of my life."
Hetty's eyes widened in shock but Martin just laughed.
"Good for you," he said, slapping James on the back.
James couldn't do anything but smile.
"So, does he have a name, this person who's making you grin like an idiot?" Hetty
asked, recovering.
"He does," James said. "Daniel Milford. He lives in Manchester but runs a chain of restaurants in Ireland. He's six foot two, not quite blonde, drinks whiskey on the rocks and is an only child."
James could tell that she was impressed.
"You found all that out in one night?"
"Nope. In three and a bit weeks."
"Three and... but we saw you two weeks ago. You never said anything."
James shrugged.
"I didn't want to jinx it. Besides, the time before that you'd been going on about how I should find myself a man. I didn't want you to think that I'd actually been listening to you."
Martin laughed.
"Well, I was right, wasn't I?" Hetty said triumphantly. "And you're happy."
James nodded. He was dying to tell them something else but suddenly felt shy.
"What?" Martin asked, in a surprisingly perceptive moment.
"Well," James started slowly, looking down and fiddling with the napkin in his hand. "It's just... it sounds stupid but... well, you know, I think... I mean, how would I know if-" Hetty looked puzzled and James took a deep breath. "I think he might be, y'know, the one," he said, feeling his face begin to heat up and avoiding looking at his friends.
Before he knew what was happening he found himself in one of Hetty's hugs.
"Oh, that's wonderful!" she exclaimed.
When he was released he saw Martin grinning at him.
"I mean, it's only been three weeks and I don't know him all that well, and anything could happen..." James said quickly. "But it feels right, you know?"
"So why didn't you bring him with you?" Hetty asked.
"I kind of told him you were like my family so... well, I don't want him to think I'm getting too serious on him. I don't want to scare him away."
Hetty sighed and rolled her eyes. "Men..."
James lay in bed, looking up through the sky-light in the ceiling. It was light outside but all he could see was grey; it was one of those days when the weather wouldn't even threaten to do anything interesting. He was glad it was his day off - he could lie in this warmth all morning. James rolled over to look at the man next to him. He watched as Dan slept on peacefully and smiled.
They'd been going out for a little over two months now and with every day that passed James became more contented with life. Every time he saw Dan he became more convinced that he was the one that he would wake up to for the rest of his days.
James wondered if Dan felt the same. Sometimes the way he would look at James made him think that maybe, just maybe...
He sometimes wished that he could be himself. He wanted to tell Dan about magic, to introduce him to Ron and Hermione, and to let him see his messy black hair and green eyes without fear, but, despite this, he was happier than he could ever remember being.
James ran his fingers along the smooth, pale skin of Dan's arm and kissed his
shoulder. Dan stirred and turned to face him.
"Morning," he said, stretching and putting an arm across James' waist.
James drew him into a kiss and moved closer, entwining their legs.
"I think," he said between kisses, "that we-" He rolled so that he was pressing against Dan's side. "-should stay in bed all morning." He leaned down and kissed Dan's lips, running a hand through his hair, as he felt Dan's arms round his waist.
"As much as I'd like to, I can't," Dan moaned. "Not today. Sorry."
"Why not?"
"I've got to work. I'm flying to Dublin to oversee the publicity campaign."
James groaned and rolled onto his back, staring at the sky again.
If he hadn't known how important Dan's work was to him, James might have felt insulted. Dan never really spoke about it, but James guessed that he had had an argument with his parents and starting his own business was his way of proving that he could survive without them.
"So you mean you're leaving me in bed by myself so you can go and stare at
beautiful men all day?" James asked.
Dan laughed.
"Yes, that's exactly what I mean. But you know you love me anyway," he teased.
James turned to look at him, but didn't smile.
"Actually," he said slowly, swallowing, "I do... I mean... I love you."
Dan looked surprised. He opened his mouth to speak but no sound came out.
Time ticked by painfully until the pause was sufficiently long that James could no longer deny that Dan wasn't going to say those three words back to him.
James wanted to be angry but a small part of his brain - the logical part that sounded a lot like Hermione - told him that they'd only been together for two months. James hadn't even been sure that he was capable of love, and he certainly hadn't intended to tell Dan how he felt. He'd never told anyone that he loved them before. Perhaps it was because he knew what a powerful thing love could be; it had saved his life and defeated evil; it wasn't something to be taken lightly. However, that was how he felt and it was too late to take it back now.
Wordlessly, James got out of bed and put his dressing gown on before going into
the kitchen and filling the kettle with water. He switched it on and starred at
the little orange light glowing on the handle. Behind him, he heard Dan walk in,
then felt a pair of arms wrapping around his middle.
"I'm sorry," Dan whispered in his ear. "It's just... I loved someone once and... well,... it was complicated."
James didn't trust himself enough to speak.
"I do care about you," Dan said. "Just give me time."
James nodded and Dan kissed the back of his neck, making all the hairs there stand up on end.
"Have you got any plans for tonight?" Dan asked.
James shook his head.
"I'll come back this evening then. I don't need to stay overnight. I'll get an earlier flight."
"You don't have to," James said, his voice wavering and feeling very vulnerable.
Dan tightened his arms around him.
"Yes I do. I want to."
Whilst Dan was in the shower James made breakfast and tried his best to act
"I should get going," Dan said.
"Aren't you even having anything to eat?"
"I'll grab something at the airport."
Dan put down his bag and reached up to gently stroke James' cheek.
"I'll be back tonight.
"Okay," James said again, not meeting his eyes.
With a sigh Dan picked up his bag and kissed James goodbye.
James was miserable all morning. Occasionally he consoled himself with he fact that Dan had said he cared and that he was coming home early, but he still couldn't quite shake the feeling of rejection.
James had just finished watching the evening news when he heard the doorbell ring.
"It's open," he called out.
Moments later Dan came into the living room and collapsed onto the sofa beside him, yawning.
"How was it?" James asked.
"Mostly women."
James smiled. "Oh well."
"Here, I got you something," Dan said opening his bag.
He pulled out two bottles and gave one to James. They had no label on but looked vaguely familiar.
"What's this?"
"Er, I can't remember what it's called but it's Irish beer. You can't get it over here," Dan said opening his bottle.
"I thought you didn't drink beer?" James accused as he opened his own bottle.
"I make an exception for this. Taste it."
James did, and he understood why his boyfriend broke his 'no brew' rule. It was smooth and had a similar taste to something else, although he couldn't decide what.
"This is good," James said, leaning to rest his head on Dan's shoulder.
Dan put an arm around him and started to stroke the bare skin below James' t-shirt sleeve.
"So am I forgiven then?"
"There's nothing to forgive. I told you how I feel. You told me you don't feel the same way-"
"It's not like you can do anything about it."
"So I can stay tonight?"
"Of course," James said as he finished his beer and put the bottle on the floor. He shifted to a more comfortable position in Dan's arms. "I'm hardly going to chuck you out when you got an earlier flight especially to be here."
Dan didn't answer. James turned to look at him and smiled when he saw that the other man had fallen asleep. James took the empty bottle out of his hand and his arm from around James' shoulders.
James wished, for what must have been the hundredth time since they'd started seeing each other, that Dan knew about magic; he'd be so much more comfortable if James could just levitate him to bed. Instead, James fetched a blanket, wrapped it around him and lightly kissed his forehead before going to bed himself.
In the weeks that followed, neither James nor Dan mentioned the incident, but James was sure that neither of them had forgotten about his one-sided confession. Dan had certainly become more affectionate and his flirtatious remarks weren't quite as throwaway as they had been previously. Dan never told James that he loved him, though, and James hadn't pressed him. In fact, James hadn't even repeated his own declaration, not out loud anyway; he didn't want to hear the awkward silence that would undoubtedly follow.
With this new step, came a new feeling of guilt for James. He had told Dan that he loved him but he was keeping one of the biggest secrets possible from him. He told himself that he had to, because of the Statute of Secrecy, but he knew that the truth was he wasn't up to putting himself on the line again. He'd already been disappointed once; he couldn't take it if Dan turned out to be like his horrid relatives.
As their relationship reached and survived the sticky three-month mark, Hetty began hinting ever less subtly that she wanted to meet this Dan who had practically moved in with her best friend, but James had learnt his lesson. He might well be head over heels but Dan wasn't ready yet; asking him to meet his 'family' might push him away completely.
However, when their four-month anniversary arrived, James decided that he couldn't let it pass unnoticed; this was the longest any of his relationships had ever lasted. And he had never before had feelings as strong as those he had for Dan.
James slipped quietly out of bed and into the kitchen. It was barely light outside and he took great care not to clatter about whilst he prepared breakfast. He got out a tray and placed the coffee, orange juice, toast and Dan's favourite jam on it. There was something missing. James wasn't really a flower sort of person, but that was the sort of effect he wanted to recreate. Looking around the kitchen he spotted his front door keys. He hesitated. Was it too much? Dan practically lived in his flat already and it wasn't like he would be inviting him to move in; he was just giving him a front door key so he could let himself in if he was early and James was out.
Opening a drawer, James picked up his spare key, fingering the cold metal in his hands and biting the inside of his lip. He closed the drawer again and put the key on the tray before carrying it into the bedroom.
Setting the breakfast things down on his bedside table, James got back under the
covers. He pressed himself up against Dan's back and, when he stirred, whispered in
his ear.
"I've got something for you."
Even before Dan turned over, James knew there would be a smirk on his boyfriend's face.
"I'll bet you have," Dan said.
James pretended to look shocked.
"Not that." He reached and brought the tray in front of them. "This."
James was pleased to see that Dan looked genuinely surprised.
"Breakfast in bed? What did I do to deserve this?"
"Well," James said, feeling a little nervous, "it's been four months."
James nodded.
Dan smiled. "I've put up with you for that long?"
"And I intend for you to put up with me for much longer."
Dan pulled him into a passionate kiss but pulled back just as they were about to knock over the orange juice.
Dan frowned.
"You shouldn't have done this, you know," he said.
"Why not?"
"Because now I've seen this lot I'm hungry and I'll have to save ravishing you 'til later."
James smiled. "Is that a promise?"
Dan smirked, raised an eyebrow and started spreading jam on his toast.
"What's this?" he asked, picking up the key, which James had forgotten about.
"Oh, well... Don't worry, I'm not asking you to move in or anything. It's just, you know, I thought it might be useful."
"Thank you," Dan said, kissing him briefly before biting into his toast.
James felt his stomach leap. It wasn't the biggest sign of commitment that they could have between them but it was certainly a start. He smiled and poured coffee for them both.
"Actually," Dan said, finishing off his toast, "there's something I need to tell you
and now seems as good a time as any."
Dan moved the tray from between them and took one of James' hands in his own, looking at him solemnly.
"It's just that... don't take this the wrong way, but..." He sighed sadly and James' heart sank. "... well, you make the worst coffee."
"What?" James asked, unsure if he'd heard correctly.
"Your coffee. It's terrible. I've tolerated it for as long as I can but, I'm sorry, I can't take it any more.
James laughed and hit Dan's arm.
"You bastard. You scared the shit out of me."
Dan smiled. "Hey, who are you calling a bastard? You're the one who can't make coffee... Neanderthal."
"Weirdo," James said, sticking out his tongue.
Dan lay back down, propping himself on his elbow and smiling at James.
"Nincompoop," James said as he joined him.
James laughed out loud.
"Fancy pants."
Dan's free hand reached under the covers and slid round to James' back. James took advantage of the fact that Dan's side was now exposed and began to tickle him. Dan let out a girlie shriek and rolled over, trapping both of James' hands by his side.
"Hedgehog head."
"Dragon breath."
Dan's smile faltered momentarily before reappearing.
James did a quick mental check. 'Dragon breath'. Okay, so it was a wizarding expression but Muggles have heard of dragons. Dan had no way of knowing that James had actually got close enough to one to know that their breath smelt of stale smoke.
"I said dragon breath."
Dan sat back and was giving him a searching look that James couldn't quite figure out.
"What sort of dragon?"
James began to panic. Surely Dan couldn't be a...? A Muggle would expect him to say 'a fierce one' or perhaps 'an ugly green one'. That's what he should say. But what if...? James had to know. He picked the first name that came into his head.
"A Hungarian Horntail."
He held his breath, his heart thumping rapidly in his chest.
Dan raised a single eyebrow.
"Really? I always considered myself as more of an Antipodean Opaleye."
James sat up sharply, his head in a spin.
"You're a wizard," he breathed, hardly able to believe his ears.
"So are you," Dan replied.
For a moment they both sat facing each other, frozen and speechless. James swallowed.
"Well... I suppose that makes things... easier," he said, trying to cover the slightly uncomfortable feeling he was experiencing.
"Mmm," Dan agreed.
James thought he looked uncertain though.
An uncomfortable silence stretched between them.
"So," Dan said, "where d'you keep your wand?"
He smiled and James tried to smile back, but he was sure they were both aware that something had changed. James just had to work out if it was for the better or the worse.
"Um,... so, what d'you want to do today?" he asked, deciding to steer clear of the subject
that had just been unexpectedly broached.
"Aren't you meeting Martin and Hetty?"
"Not until tonight."
Dan shrugged. "You decide."
At that precise moment, James felt like flying and almost suggested it. But then he began to wonder; how many people had a Firebolt? Dan would certainly ask if he liked Quidditch; should he tell him he'd played Seeker at school? Had these facts about him been reported in the Daily Prophet? Would Dan put two and two together?
Everything had suddenly become very complicated.
"Let's... let's go to the cinema or something."
"The cinema?"
"Yeah. We can catch a matinee then grab some lunch."
"If you like."
James couldn't help but notice that their conversation had become a little strained. After all the times he'd wished he could tell Dan about magic, he began to doubt the idea. He was convinced that at any moment Dan was suddenly going to leap up and point at him saying 'It's him! Look, it's Harry Potter!', or else ask for an autograph or a photo. This was a nightmare.
"Listen," Dan said as they were about to leave the flat to go to the cinema, "this is stupid. We're still the same people we were before. I... You know I haven't felt like this about anyone in a long time. I don't want to ruin it over something like this. Blood and such shouldn't matter. There's no reason anything should change."
James sighed. He wondered if Dan would still feel the same way if he knew he was going out with Harry Potter. A niggling part of his brain told him that it would be better to be up-front and honest but James couldn't bear the thought of losing Dan. He'd waited so long to be happy, for someone to love him... Well, Dan didn't love him just yet, but surely it was just a matter of time? If he exposed his real identity Dan might turn out to be one of those people who was too awe-stuck to see past the name. James didn't think he could stand to lose him like that. It would be far too much like another victory for Voldemort and he'd already lost too much to that particular cause.
James stopped halfway through putting his jacket on.
"Dan... what happened to that promise about you ravishing me later?"
"You decided we were going to the cinema, remember?" Dan told him.
"Yeah, well, I changed my mind. We never go to the cinema. I don't see why anything should change."
Dan smiled.
"Me neither."
A considerable amount of time later, Dan and James were getting ready to go out once again. The morning's activities had cleared any awkwardness between them and James was seriously wondering what he had ever been worried about.
"Hey, James," Dan called from the bedroom, "will you put your contacts in for me?"
"Not today, I'm starving. Come on let's go eat," James said.
Dan appeared in the hallway.
"Oh, go on. It can be your anniversary present to me."
All James' anxiety from this morning flooded back.
"You know they make my eyes itch. Another time. Come on," James said, employing his usual excuse.
Dan leaned against the doorframe, one eyebrow raised questioningly.
"Contact lenses? Please. We don't have to pretend any more. A quick cambio coloras'll only take a second. Here, I'll do it for you."
"No," James said, taking an unconscious step backward.
Dan stopped and they looked at each other before James broke eye contact.
"Okay, never mind, it doesn't matter," Dan said hastily, although James thought he could hear a trace of hurt in his voice.
James felt like something was stuck in his throat. He swallowed heavily.
Very slowly, James walked the short distance to the living room and sat down. Who had he been trying to kid? Of course things had changed. There was no getting away from it. James was always saying he wished Dan knew about him and here was the perfect opportunity to tell him. To do otherwise would be to live a lie.
James reached into an invisible pocket in his trousers and pulled out his wand. He was vaguely aware that Dan had come to stand in front of him but he didn't look up. James closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and took off the Concealment Charm.
He felt his body morph slightly until it had reached it's natural form. Harry heard Dan's sharp intake of breath but didn't look up. This was it; the moment of truth. Slowly, he forced his eyes to leave his lap, travel across the floor and finally rise until they were level with Dan's. Dan was staring, his mouth slightly open.
Harry felt his eyes starting to water.
"Say something," he whispered.
Dan blinked, as if trying to make sure that the image in front of him was real. Harry saw him open and close his mouth, as if the words were trying to escape but couldn't. Harry's heart felt like it was slowly turning to lead.
Eventually, Dan spoke.
"I love you."
Harry turned away, closing his eyes and letting a tear escape down his cheek.
"Get out," he said quietly but as firmly as this wavering voice would allow.
Harry tried not to let his emotions get the better of him. It wouldn't do for his voice to fail him now.
"I said get out."
This seemed to snap Dan out of his reverie.
"Wait, listen..."
Harry stood and looked him straight in the eye, his jaw clenching and his arm raising so that his wand was pointing at his former boyfriend.
"Get out now before I hex you into next week."
"But I can explain-"
"I don't care. Take your sorry-excuse-for-a-wizard arse and your toothbrush and get out."
Dan looked like he might object but then he turned and headed towards the door.
"And don't bother to ever come back."
With a final glance, Dan left.
To be continued...
In chapter 4: Well, by now you should have worked out what the title of chapter 4 will be. And if you've worked out the title, you'll probably also know who's going to make an appearance.
A/N: I was going to end this chapter at the point where James took off his Concealment
Charm but I thought that would be too cruel. Instead I left him heart-broken... Okay so I'm
Well, you know what I'm going to say now - it would be nice to hear from you lot out there - all comments, compliments and (constructive) criticisms are gratefully received.
Until the next (last?) chapter,
myrtille et mure

Want to eat well? Get back to the basics
Sweet corn, beets, string beans and apples are piled high at the Simon Produce and Baked Goods stand at the Becker Market.
It's home-grown, and harvested so recently that the earth still clings to the freshly dug carrots.
Behind the table, Charalin Simon greets customers, weighs their purchases on an old-fashioned scale and bundles up vegetables, jars of jam and home-baked treats for buyers to take home.
Willmar-area residents don't have to go far to find fresh food. The Simons, who are from Kerkhoven, come to Willmar twice a week -- for the Becker Market on Thursday afternoons and the farmer's market on Saturday mornings. They also sell produce and fresh eggs in Kerkhoven.
"We have vegetables from A to Z," said Charalin Simon.
Produce departments at local grocery stores are stocked with fresh fruit and vegetables year round. Television and the Internet are brimming with advice on how to eat well.
Why, then, is it often so difficult for the average household to break out of the fast-food, convenience-food, eating-on-the-run routine?
Polls and organizations that track American eating habits consistently report the same thing: Although many Americans still prepare their own meals, there's a high reliance in U.S. culture on prepackaged food, convenience food and takeout and restaurant dining -- and the accompanying consequences of larger portions, more calories and less than optimal health.
For many people, it comes down to lack of time and know-how, said Roxanne Erickson, a health educator with Kandiyohi County Public Health.
"People have a lot of time constraints," she said. "People are eating out a lot more."
This is especially the case for current 20-somethings, who are far less likely to have been raised on home cooking, she said. "We grew up with a lot of fast food readily available."
"I think there's just so much pressure. We're trying to do more and more all the time," agreed Kellie Prentice, who heads the cardiac health and rehabilitation program at Rice Memorial Hospital. "Some of the basics have been left behind. We're not teaching our kids then how to cook."
Several local initiatives are under way to try to help reverse this trend.
During the five years Willmar was a site for the Steps to a Healthier US project, organizers introduced a "Farm to School" program that brings Minnesota-grown foods such as apples, squash and wild rice to school cafeterias.
Community gardens are giving people -- especially children -- the opportunity to grow and eat their own vegetables.
A Kandiyohi County food steering committee is currently working to boost the availability of fresh, locally grown food for people of all ages and incomes.
One of its projects is to develop a database of local food producers, Erickson said. A Kandiyohi County Public Health intern has been spending the summer talking to restaurants and caterers to assess whether they use local foods or would like to introduce local foods to their menu.
The committee also is exploring the possibility of a greenhouse to produce fresh vegetables year round.
Encouraging people to change their habits will probably require strategies on several fronts, however. For one thing, there's a perception that fresh food costs more, Erickson said.
While $5 might buy more potato chips than apples, $5 worth of apples "goes a lot further," she said.
For low-income households, access and affordability can especially be a barrier to eating more fresh foods, she said.
This summer, the federal Women, Infants and Children nutrition program added fresh fruits and vegetables to its voucher system, making it easier for qualified households to obtain these foods. The Becker Market also is working on a project for next year that would allow eligible shoppers to use the food stamp electronic benefit system when they buy fresh food at the market.
Lack of know-how is another barrier, Erickson said. "People don't know how to cook. They get fresh fruit and vegetables and they don't know how to prepare them."
It's often more work to cook from scratch, but "in the long run it is more nutritious," she said.
It can be particularly challenging for people newly diagnosed with diabetes or heart disease to change long-standing eating habits.
Prentice, a nurse, works with heart patients who often are highly motivated but overwhelmed.
"They may have many things they're working on," she said.
To help get them started, the cardiac rehabilitation program offers each participant an education and assessment session with a dietitian. When they complete the six- to eight-week program, they get a heart-healthy cookbook filled with recipes that have all been tested by staff and previous program participants.
"The real world is going to face you when you're done with rehab," Prentice said. "That's what our role is -- to help them enjoy all the things they did but work them into their new lifestyle. We try to overthink everything. We just need to get back to the basics."

Pamela Churchill Harriman (20 March 1920 – 5 February 1997) was an English-born socialite who was married and linked to important and powerful men. In later life, she became a political activist for the United States Democratic Party and a diplomat. Her only child, Winston Churchill, is named after his famous grandfather.
Early life
Pamela Beryl Digby was born in Farnborough, Hampshire, England, the daughter of Edward Digby, 11th Baron Digby, and his wife, Constance Pamela Alice, the daughter of Henry Campbell Bruce, 2nd Baron Aberdare, a peer in the House of Lords. Pamela Digby was educated by governesses in the ancestral home at Minterne Magna in Dorset, along with her three younger siblings. Her great-great aunt was the nineteenth-century adventurer and courtesan Lady Jane Digby, notorious for her exotic travels and scandalous personal life. Pamela was to follow in her ancestor's footsteps, being frequently cited as "the 20th century's greatest courtesan."
Amid acres of Dorset farmland and woods, Pamela as a young girl enjoyed an idyllic lifestyle at the top of the county's social tree. From an early age Pamela was a very good horsewoman. She competed at shows at the International Olympia, Royal Bath and West Show, and local shows at Dorchester and Melplash. She show-jumped a tiny pony called Stardust that did a clear round at Olympia when every fence was above the animal's withers.
At age seventeen, she was sent to a Munich boarding school for six months. Whilst there she was introduced to Adolf Hitler by Unity Mitford. She subsequently went to Paris where she took some classes at the Sorbonne. By 1937, she had returned to England.
Marriage to Randolph Churchill
In 1939, while working at the Foreign Office in London doing French-to-English translations, Pamela met Randolph Churchill, the son of Winston Churchill. Randolph proposed to her on the very evening they met, and they were married on October 4, 1939. Two days after Randolph Churchill took his seat in the House of Commons, their son Winston was born. Shortly after birth Pamela and the newborn were photographed by Cecil Beaton for Life Magazine, its first cover of a mother with baby.[1]
In February 1941, Randolph was sent to Cairo for military service, where he accrued large gambling debts. His letter to Pamela asking her to make good on his debts, and her affair with Averell Harriman, shattered the marriage. Eventually, she filed for divorce in December 1945 on the grounds that he had deserted her for three years. Later, after having converted to Catholicism, she even obtained an annulment from the Catholic Church.[1]
Romantic involvements and affairs
Beside two additional marriages, Pamela Harriman had numerous affairs with men of prominence and wealth. During her marriage to Randolph Churchill, she had romantic involvements with men such as: Averell Harriman, who would much later become her third husband; Edward R. Murrow; and John Hay "Jock" Whitney. Notable consorts after her divorce included Prince Aly Khan, Alfonso de Portago, one of the Agnelli heirs, and Baron Elie de Rothschild.[1][2]
Churchill became well known for her attention to detail with men. When involved romantically with a man, she paid extremely close attention to his desires, his preferences, and went to any lengths necessary to satisfy his needs during the affair. William S. Paley, briefly a consort during the war, said: "She is the greatest courtesan of the century", meaning it more as a compliment than a detraction.[1]
After her divorce from Randolph Churchill, she moved to Paris and in 1948 began her five-year-long affair with Gianni Agnelli. She described this as the happiest period of her life. Agnelli, however, was not faithful in this relationship. In 1952, Pamela found him with a young woman, Anne-Marie d'Estainville, and threw a rare fit about this. Agnelli sustained a severe leg injury in a car accident while bringing d'Estainville home. Pamela nursed him through his injury, and later became pregnant (although it was never confirmed that this was by Agnelli), but had an abortion in Switzerland. Later, Princess Marella Caracciolo di Castagneto became pregnant by Agnelli, and Pamela Churchill ended the affair.[2]
Her next significant relationship was with Baron Elie de Rothschild, who was married. He supported her financially, and she was schooled in art history and wine-making during this clandestine and short relationship.[3] During this time she also entertained an affair with the writer Maurice Druon and with the shipping magnate Stavros Niarchos.[1]
Marriage to Leland Hayward
In 1959, she met Broadway producer Leland Hayward who was still married to Slim Hawks. He proposed to her, and after her marriage ultimatum to Rothschild was rejected, she accepted Hayward's offer and moved to New York. The day Hayward's divorce was final, she became the fifth Mrs. Hayward with the ceremony taking place in Carson City, Nevada on 4 May 1960. He was rich from income of his productions, notably the very successful "The Sound of Music", allowing for a lavish and luxurious life style mostly between their residence in New York City and the Westchester County estate "Haywire." Haywire is also the name of the bitter memoirs of her stepdaughter Brooke Hayward. Pamela Hayward stayed with her husband until his death on 18 March 1971.
Marriage to Averell Harriman
The day after Hayward's funeral, Pamela arranged to resume her acquaintance with her former lover Averell Harriman, then 79 years old and recently widowed. They were married on 27 September 1971. With this marriage, her social focus was moved to Washington, DC, where he owned a townhouse in Georgetown from which they entertained many notable persons. Harriman, a railroad tycoon, was wealthy and also bought an estate in Virginia and a private jet. With Harriman's involvement and links in the Democratic Party, her political career got started. Her last marriage lasted until his death in 1986. In later years, she had significant legal problems with Harriman's children concerning the inheritance.[1]
Political life
As Pamela Churchill Harriman she became a United States citizen in 1971 and became involved with the Democratic Party, creating a fund-raising system - a political action committee - named "Democrats for the 80s", later "Democrats for the 90s", and nicknamed "PamPAC". In 1980, the National Women's Democratic Club named her "Woman of the Year". U.S. President Bill Clinton appointed her United States Ambassador to France in 1993. The Dayton Agreement was signed in Paris in 1995 while she served as ambassador.
Pamela Harriman died on 5 February 1997 at the American Hospital, Neuilly-sur-Seine, after suffering a cerebral haemorrhage while swimming at the Paris Ritz one day earlier. The morning after her death, President Jacques Chirac of France placed the Grand Cross of the Légion d'honneur on her flag-draped coffin. She was the first female foreign diplomat to receive this honour. President Clinton, in further recognition of her contributions and significance, dispatched Air Force One to return her body to the United States and spoke movingly at her funeral at the Washington National Cathedral in Washington, D.C.
She was buried 14 February 1997 at Arden, the Harriman estate near New York.
Her life story has been the subject of a documentary film, and has been somewhat Hollywoodised in the 1998 TV movie The Life of the Party: The Pamela Harriman Story with Ann-Margret in the title role.
