Chapter 11
Thickening the Air I Breathe
I didn't think the holidays would suck so much. Kyle left without saying a word. I just watched him drive away from me and I didn't do anything to stop him. If this is how it's supposed to be I guess I can't meddle with it- but I just can't leave it alone.
I'm going crazy being here alone. The word of my parents divorce got out and in a small town like this people look down on you and talk in hushed voices as you walk past them. The only thing I can think as I brush past the icy taunts is, 'where is Kyle when I need him?'
I've complicated Kyle's life by falling for him.
I've complicated Wendy's life by just being with her.
I've realized that by January this charade will have been going on for five months and I also have realized the copious amounts of stress that has been shoved into my arms in that short time as well.
I haven't given up yet- no not in the slightest.
However, as I thought over the break I came up with a revelation. Throughout ones lifetime we are given the number one. You are only given the important things once. One heart, one love and one soul mate- I am sure that I have fulfilled my life's one in this short amount of time but I am not saddened. In fact I am enlightened.
However, this enlightenment is two-sided. One side is a blessing while the other side taunts me with what I cannot touch. I am happy to be blessed with such a heart in love with someone so dearly- my soul mate, but I have to remember that my "one" isn't always "one" with another.
So that's it. I only have one… one life one love one family and one confession…one. Yes I have made things complicated but within that I have grown to understand it. I can now live knowing why Kyle did those things, and why he doesn't love me… but more importantly why I still love him.
I'm Stan Marsh, and that's my revelation.
Stan hardly left his room. It remained dark for most parts of the day and he did nothing but sleep and try to get away from it all. It was now two days past Christmas and Stan hadn't received a single phone call from Kyle. All his phone calls consisted him hanging up on Cartman and somehow managing to persuade Wendy from not coming over.
He was crazy. He couldn't spend one minute without thinking about Kyle and what the break could have been with him around. He would have made Kyle feel loved and wanted and would have made sure he had no doubts of his own feeling.
Even though Kyle always confused him he was almost certain that Kyle was scared and that his feelings were genuine- that he meant the things he said and did, even from the very start. The more Stan thought out this 'very start' aspect the more he thought about the past several months. All the kisses, the flirty and the playing hard to get were now coming clear to Stan as he lay on his bed tangled in an array of sheet and blanket.
All his bad thoughts of himself seemed to drift away and he felt as if Kyle was planning something for him- that at any moment he was going to get a call to look out his window and he'd be standing there waiting for him to come down. At least that's what he kept telling himself during all hours of the day.
He looked over onto his floor at the untidy mess that was a sea of guilt and scandalous strides for affection. Each half-opened gift from his parents was bigger than the one that preceded it. Stan's father tried to outdo his mother by getting him more expensive gifts than the ones that he thought Sharon was going to buy. He knew his parents were trying to buy his love so even though he loved some of the gifts that he got he left them untouched for his own sake.
Stan didn't receive a gift from any of his friends and not one from his sister, who called for five minutes on Christmas day. She didn't come home because she would rather be with a fake family than the one God gave her.
Stan didn't want to leave his room and visit friends from school over the holidays. He hated to admit it but the only person worthwhile visiting was Kyle- and only Kyle. He was having a hard time keeping Wendy away as well. He didn't want to see her anymore but she continued to call to ask him to really think about what he did.
It was typical and he knew it. As soon as he stopped paying attention to her when she has no one else to run to she can't leave him alone- but regardless he just couldn't be bothered.
For Stan, Christmas holiday's consisted of hiding and pretending not to live the lie and life he was currently in between. However, his days would have been slightly better if he had known the stress that last conversation had put on Kyle, and how badly Kyle just wanted to go home and see him.
Kyle wasn't able to get rest. When he slept he dreamed about any time he spent with Stan and while he was awake and wished he was sleeping. He couldn't be bothered with visiting family or even the several days of gifs he was receiving.
Everyday Kyle would take out a notebook and write feverishly in it. Scratching and scribbling looking nervously around to make sure no one was reading what he was pouring out onto the paper.
They were notes upon notes where Kyle attempted to do himself justice for acting the way he did, however each note would end up being shredded and tossed to become recycled paper.
Ike had noticed this detachment and one was really bored. He asked Kyle what was wrong and Kyle decided to tell him a slightly different story.
"I have this friend," he started and Ike nodded knowingly. "And he really likes this gu-irl… this girl." Kyle told him frantically trying to correct himself.
"The classic guy likes girl- girl hates boy syndrome- you see it all the time" Ike replied like it was easy knowledge.
"No, not exactly" Kyle said and regained Ike's interest tenfold. "She likes him- a lot. In fact she would go as far as telling him that she loves him."
"So both parties are in like with each other- but they are too afraid to start anything. That is also a classic syndrome- I call it repellent complex." Ike rambled like a psychiatrist. "It's when both parties like one another and have admitted it to everyone but the person they like. Together they are like two positive magnets and repel each other. It's simple really: one person needs to speak their mind."
"Again that's not it. This guy and this girl are mostly aware of the feelings and if fact have shared moments together- but the guy is stupid and he did things before that will make this relationship fail… and he knows it, but he can't stop thinking about … her"
"Well, in my experience (and I say this because I have none) what you have to do is STOP BEATING AROUND THE BUSH- get straight to the point. Tell her what your malfunction is so you two can figure this out. If she truly does love you than anything you do she will get over because of that fact. Firstly, forgive yourself for whatever you did and then talk to this girl – face-to-face – about it. If you guys have a good thing don't let guilt get in the way…" Ike finished and then averted his eyes to the table where dinner was being set. "So stop being a pansy and get some courage…" He stood while Kyle stared dumbfounded. When did his brother become so astute?
"By the way Kyle," Ike began to ask. "Would this 'she' of yours happen to be "s"less?" Kyle looked quizzically at him. "You know… a he?"
"Keep talking Ike, one of these days you're going to get it." Kyle replied feeling flustered but not wanting to lose his cool and let his younger half-brother win.
Five months have gone by and all I have a sore head and sick stomach. The starting of the new semester didn't bring us closer together but, as we both predicted, it brought us father apart. On the outside we would act like the best of friends, but on the inside we'd both clawed and desire to climb into a dark hole and hide from each other.
Now, the one question I have to ask myself- whom do I choose? Who do I try for? Can I really make Kyle like me – can I really make myself like Wendy again? I just don't know what to do…
It's hard to say when things went wrong. Possibly that stupid dance that I knew I should have skipped. I wish I hadn't gone- nothing could be worst than this… nothing. Kyle hates me, Wendy hates me and Cartman wont leave me the fuck alone.
The more I think of the past five months, I can't help but to pin point the problems. Like that dance for instance, the guys' night in watching wrestling, the trip to New York, inviting Kyle over was the worst. Dude, I've really screwed things up for myself hardcore.
Kyle won't talk to me outside school anymore. I know he liked it- I just- don't know what to do anymore. I've complicated everything; in just five months I've screwed it all up. I'll be alone forever, now that I think about it… I'm- in love with-
Kyle didn't want to speak with Stan yet. Every time he tried he got tongue-tied and had to leave. He needed more time to think about what he had done. He had written page upon page of apologies that met the same fate as the paper before to the shredder over and over.
Kyle began at step one. He forgave himself.
He began to think logically about the situation and each situation where he and Stan ever shared a moment. The moment he forgave himself was the moment he was able to think clearly and write. The words began to flow and sooner than he imagined- the perfect note was written. He shoved the paper into and envelope and addressed it to Stan Marsh.
For several days the letter sat on his desk collecting dust. He felt insecure again and didn't want to give something away that he was still unsure about. Kyle would spend hours sitting at his desk staring at the letter waiting for his courage to take hold of him and deliver the letter.
On a snowy day Kyle found himself walking to Stan's house, the letter in his knapsack. He hadn't planned on going but it seemed that it was the direction in which his feet were taking him. The sidewalk to Stan's door was laden with a white carpet of fluffy pure snow. There were no impurities and no footprints. Kyle thought that it might be a shame to ruin such a serine picture.
Kyle sighed heavily and squeezed the note. He walked down the untouched path and dropped the note into the mailbox. For moments he held down the lid debating whether to leave it. In the end he let his hand slid off the black metal and allowed himself to turn and leave. Kyle felt light- he felt as if he had lifted a burden off his shoulders. He had to wait until tomorrow evening to go to Starks pond. He was just hoping that Stan would show up now that he knows the full truth.
Dear Stan,
I'm sorry. I never knew you kept something like this. For so long I just brushed it off as if it were childish and pathetic. But it's opened my eyes, made me see what you've been going through and I never imagined it was anything like this. I never knew you felt the way you do about anything. About your parents, school… or me. I don't know how you've managed to go to school and deal with all these problems.
I don't know what it is that we have or why, Stan, but I think I want to learn more about it.
Here's the thing. I used you and played you but only because I knew you were vulnerable and I know you liked me. From that day I kissed you as a joke- as a way of making you lighten up… I just knew it. It was this knowledge that made me go further- you liked me more than you ever did anyone and it was because of me. If I hadn't kissed you, you'd still be goo, goo eyed for Wendy. I just didn't want to let that feeling go- that power I had over you.
It was me, it's never me and for once I could have someone completely under my thumb and I didn't want to let it go, so I led you on to the point where I felt… bad but it was too late, and I… need you to meet me at Starks pond on Thursday, and come alone.
"Starks Pond" Stan said quietly and he could see the place forming in his mind. The dead trees sticking twisted through the snowy ground. He crumpled the paper and tossed it into the trash. "How could I have been so stupid" he thought to himself. He knew that Kyle was acting strange and those times he said he was sorry and that he didn't feel right this is what he was talking about.
Biting his lip he looked towards the trash, the paper slightly unfolding out of its ball. "Starks Pond…" he thought slightly and then shook his head. He shouldn't have to go and hear what Kyle has to say when he can read it and get the full picture.
"I can always call Wendy" he thought looking towards his phone. It was a decent way of distracting himself, not for the better but it would at least keep him mind off Kyle. Closing his eyes Stan imagined his way to Starks Pond and waiting for Kyle. He shook the thoughts out of his head.
He was mad at Kyle, not in love with him anymore. He hated him because he used him and in the process… realized that he too, liked him as well. Stan smiled lightly but then frowned. The note didn't actually say that he liked him- it said that he felt bad. This made Stan frown even further. What if Kyle only wants a sympathy fest and then decides that they are ready to be friends again. Would Stan be able to handle that again?
It was Thursday evening. Kyle hadn't given a specific time to be there so Stan figured he wasn't going to show up. However the more Stan sat in his computer chair glancing at the note and the more he thought up scenarios the more he wanted to up and leave and find Kyle.
Stan couldn't take it anymore: the thoughts, the ideas or the silence that was intruding on his mind. He walked through the lightly dusting snow to where he was hoping Kyle was waiting for him.
Starks Pond was a blanket of white. He saw a shadowy figure sitting by the water and his heart began to race thinking that his idea to sort this out suddenly seemed like a bad one. His feet would not listen, however, they kept walking to the hunched figure that slowly made shape to be Kyle. He looked up and stared deep into Stan's eyes. Stan swallowed waiting for him to speak but nothing came out.
Stan remained silent as he took a seat beside him waiting for him to say something- anything- about the note, but nothing came- only the tossing of a rock onto the frozen pond.
After several minutes of silence, Kyle looked at Stan. "I hope you don't mind waiting for me."
"I don't" Stan replied pleasantly.
"Cause I love you…" he told him without thinking and then he began to be honest with not only Kyle, but also himself. "I think I always have and I know I always will. I don't care how embarrassed you get- I don't care how much Cartman rips on me, and I don't care that you used me to eventually feel something that you hadn't planned on- it's just the truth. You're my soul mate- and if I wait forever for you to realize it. I guess that's how it's going to be. I'll wait for you… forever."
There was silence.
"But unlike you Kyle, I'm not going to give up on you like you gave up on me when you do something stupid… one day you'll figure that out…"
"Stan… I didn't bring you here to shut you down and I didn't bring you here to tell you I hate you. I brought you here to tell you- I understand. I know what you mean about having soul mates. Because I too have a soul mate…"
Stan looked at him sadly but with boldness. "So what's this soul mate like?"
"A very special person, who has always been there for me- sometimes this person is a jerk to me too but we've always gotten over it. We've done everything together- and when I say everything I mean pretty much everything- and I can't say that I've hated a single thing that we did together… this person is perfect… and it took me forever to realize it. I think it took my selfishness to realize it- I know who I will love for the rest of my life regardless of how it turns out."
Stan raised an eyebrow… "This person sounds awfully familiar to my soul mate…"
"Does it?" Kyle gave a half-hearted smile, still feeling awful for what he had put Stan through.
"Yes… very much so." Stan let a smile spread across his face not knowing where this playful banter was coming from or where it was going.
"I love you…" Kyle said sharply looking into Stan's eyes and his smile faded. His heart skipped a few beats and he felt his breath shake as it passed by his lips.
"I…" Time seemed to be going slow. The movement of Kyle's hand to his cheeks seemed to take a decade.
"I love you, Stan Marsh," he repeated. "You've made me realize what a soul mate is and that you are it," he pressed his lips against Stan's slightly parted ones for a long, lingering kiss full of passion.
When he leaned out of it, Stan was still staring blankly at Kyle's burning eyes not recognizing this as reality. He felt so much wonderment that his body felt like it was floating. He gave a grin and flung himself into Kyle, aggressively pushing his lips back onto Kyle's as both boys toppled over into the light layer of snow. is h
So maybe I won't be alone forever; but no matter how I think about it, I'm in love with Kyle Broflovski.
Aloha… well that is the end of this story. :) it was a chapter longer than I had expected it to be… so yea. Leave a review please?? Let me know what you thought of it? Cheesy ending… yea, probably but if it ended badly how many of you would have hated me?

So I'm very interested in IF (this is my third new topic a/b it in the past 3 days!). I nurse my almost 3 yo a lot. What do you all think a/b nursing and IF? Do you limit IF at all while nursing? I've been having fun skipping meals and IFing for 16 hrs or less, but do any of you do 24 hours while nursing?
I also worry about dumping anything bad into my milk (which I'm sure happened when I lost over 50 lbs after dropping gluten, dairy, soy, corn and processed foods over a year ago) so that is a concern as well, although I'm not really sure exactly how it all works w/ fasting... (I have read that toxins can be released/moved during a fast, and breastmilk is a detox 'pathway' where those toxins can be dumped, which freaks me out a little bit...)
Anyway, I'd love to hear all of your thoughts and experiences on nursing and fasting. TIA!!!

Jefferson Davis — Mississippi cotton planter, president of the Confederacy and stout defender of slavery — might be a historical footnote to most Americans, but he's about to get a politically inspired boost. A determined majority of the Texas Board of Education is preparing to require that Texas students be taught about Davis, and his discredited view of states' rights, alongside Abraham Lincoln, the Great Emancipator.
OPPOSING VIEW: Teach founding principles
Within a few days, that and hundreds of other proposed changes in standards for teaching social studies in Texas schools, many with a similar ideological bent, are to be formally posted in Austin for public comment. With a 2-1 board majority already behind the changes, most if not all are expected to be adopted at its next meeting, in May.
Because of Texas' massive presence in the textbook market nationwide, the state board's idiosyncratic view of history is likely to show up in what's taught in schools across the USA for the next decade.
Among the other changes in the current draft: Downgrading the place of Thomas Jefferson among the Founders because of board members' dislike of his support for separation of church and state.
In sociology, the review committee that submitted proposed standards to the board suggested study of the impact of cultural movements in art, music and literature such as Tin Pan Alley, the Beat Generation, rock 'n' roll, country-western music and hip-hop. The board majority threw out hip-hop as offensive. Country music survived.
None of the board members setting social studies standards for the coming decade is a historian, but no detail is too small for the board's micromanagement. "Capitalism" is out as a name for the U.S. economic system ("negative connotation," said one member of the majority); the required term will now be "free enterprise system."
That particular change is harmless enough, but this sort of agenda-driven revisionism isn't narrow and isn't confined to Texas. Nearly half the states have a centralized curriculum system, often dominated by a politically elected or appointed board.
Kansas has been tied in knots for a decade over teaching evolution. At the other end of the politically correct spectrum, California regulates the portrayal of genders, minority groups, the elderly and the disabled. According to the Los Angeles Times, publishers have even been discouraged from labeling the residents of poor countries as, well, poor. Negative stereotyping, you know.
Members of the Texas board and their backers say they're just trying to restore balance to an academic system they view as skewed to the left. But that misses the point. Standards should be set by professionals in their fields. They should not be a vehicle for scoring points in the culture wars.
Texas' impact on education nationally should decline as computerized publishing makes it easier and less costly to tailor texts for individual markets. But why should students in Texas, or anywhere, have their education warped by political and ideological gamesmanship?

The newest member of our family has arrived! It has only taken me 2 weeks since she was born to make the time to share about her arrival. Something about now having three kids, all under 2 1/2, might have something to do with my lack of posting these days.
In any case, here's the story in pictures.
Before leaving for the hospital, we took a few family photos of the four of us.
Seconds after she was born, I had the prize in my arms!! Well worth the hard work it took to bring her into the world.
An incredibly, super proud Daddy!! He did an amazing job supporting me through the labor and delivery process. That story to come later, when I have more brain cells.
Some snuggle time.
Beautiful blue eyes, just like her sisters!!
The weigh in: 8 pounds 8.8 ounces, 21 1/4 inches long.
Rainey Elizabeth Mutz: Born on Tuesday September 11th at 6:58 p.m.
The twins were SO excited to meet their baby sister!!
Our new family picture! Now a family of five!

text: \nPop Culture Hot List\nBy Arash Markazi\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n1\n\n\nRafael NadalIt was hard to overcome the Capri pants and do-rag headband early on, but Nadal proved that he's the most complete tennis player we've seen in nearly 30 years by becoming the first player to win both Wimbledon and the French Open in the same year since 1980. His win over Roger Federer was not only a changing of the guard but arguably the greatest tennis match ever.\n\n\n2\n\n\nAlex RodriguezWe wanted to stay away from this one. We really did. It just seemed too good to be true. A-Rod, Madonna, Lenny Kravitz, A-Rod's wife, infidelity, brain washing, divorce papers. The only thing missing is a cameo by Derek Jeter and we're still not ruling that out at this point.\n\n\n3\n\n\nC.C. SabathiaThis just in: Milwaukee is also sending a pack of brats and case of PBR for Sabathia. That's the least they can do after stealing the best pitcher on the market for four prospects. Sure, the deal doesn't guarantee the Brewers a spot in the playoffs, but we got a funny feeling it will land them in the NLCS.\n\n\n4\n\n\nForrest GriffinFrom the original Ultimate Fighter reality star to the new face of the UFC in a span of three years. We just wish Griffin didn't upset Rampage Jackson and take his Light Heavyweight championship thanks to some controversial scorecards. Our rule of thumb: If the challenger goes the distance with the champion in a fairly even fight he doesn't win the title.\n\n\n5\n\n\nBrett FavreNot that Favre cares, but in case he's wondering, yes, he's ruining his reputation if he comes back to the Packers and stabs Aaron Rogers in the back after he patiently waited in the wings. Do you even need to ask if Favre ends up in another uniform and misses out on the playoffs and plays like he did for the two forgettable years before last season?\n\n\n6\n\n\nWilliams SistersWould it be a stretch to call Serena and Venus the most successful sisters ever in anything? Maybe the Kardashians made a push for a while, but you got to go with the Williams sisters now. "The Tush" can't even compare with Serena in that department. Venus may have beaten Serena to win the Wimbledon singles title this year, but they teamed up to win the doubles crown and have won a combined 15 Grand Slams.\n\n\n7\n\n\nBrian Bosworth/Tony GonzalezThere's nothing like a feel-good story and "The Boz" and Gonzalez provided two of the better ones last week as Bosworth rescued a Calgary woman from a car wreck and Gonzalez saved a choking Chargers fan at a restaurant. Needless to say the Chargers fan is now rooting for the Chiefs and don't tell that woman in Calgary that "The Boz" never stepped up big when the pressure was on.\n\n\n8\n\n\nAna IvanovicOur former tennis teacher is on the cover of FHM this month (they're still around?) and while it may not make up for coming up short in Wimbledon in her eyes, it's more than a fair consolation prize for us.\n\n\n9\n\n\nSupersonicsNamed after the first American supersonic transport, an aircraft which would later be canceled before completion and thought of as a failure, the Supersonics basketball team will be thought of more fondly as they leave Seattle to become the Oklahoma City Something-or-others. We kind of thought the team jumped the shark over a decade ago when it dropped the "Super" from their nickname as if being "super" was a bad thing.\n\n\n10\n\n\nCharles BarkleySo you know how Barkley said he's done with gambling this year, saying, "I've got to stop gambling. ... I am not going to gamble anymore," after failing to pay the Wynn a $400,000 debt. Well, apparently he's just "not allowed to gamble for awhile because the media are such jackasses." Yeah, that's why. Like we said before, we're guessing Barkley will be back to losing and failing to pay-up in Sin City by the end of the summer.\n\n\n\n\n \n\n

John Martin is an Australian.
Or he says he is. His father was one of Australia's first boat people, an illegal immigrant Pom who jumped ship after World War 2 and hid in Australia from the authorities, and later married a Tasmanian woman.
John Martin junior lives in Canberra, the capital of Australia. "Some overseas people and Sydney people don't actually believe it's the capital but it is, so there."
John Martin does have a serious side. He works as a journalist and since 1976 has served in various capacities on newspapers up and down the Australian eastern seaboard and Papua New Guinea and the Federated States of Micronesia.
For 15 months, he compiled a five-day-a-week column in The Canberra Times called CC - which contained short offbeat items, curiosities and snippets of news with an emphasis on community and local history and a special retrospective of TV show like Gideon's Island.
Before that, he was editor of the University of Canberra's newspaper Monitor, taking it online.
But writing lighter stuff is his deepest passion.
John Martin has written four books and contributed to an anthology of parenting humour in the United States.
John Martin is a member of an international Internet humour writers group called The Netwits, which comprises more than 600 of the funniest people on - and off - the planet, though mostly from North America.
"(This is why I sometimes drop the 'u' from humour, which is the Australian way - I bow to pressure from force of numbers. The Netwits' motto is: "Because together we'll accomplish even less". As it turns out, I get to cut down on my keystrokes too.)
Martin has three sisters, Therese, Kate and Sally, and a brother named Martin. Yep, Martin Martin—though his middle name is Sid.
Martin's humour/humor writing has appeared on numerous web sites in the US, the UK, Azerbejan and India. Canadians have also been able to read some of his shorter humorous fiction on many WAP-enabled mobile (cell) phones there. This was in the day when they really, honestly thought that's the way mobile phone technology was headed. D'oh.
He also wrote a called Funny Business in the Canberra Times for part of 2002 but they stopped running that, possibly because it was not funny at all.

After being postponed to April 13 following a stage collapse, Guns N' Roses' Costa Rica concert is scrapped.
Guns N' Roses have canceled their Costa Rica concert for a second time after a dangerous stage collapse struck the venue on Friday, April 9. The Estadio Ricardo Saprissa gig in San Jose was called off after water damage and the weight of the rock band's huge screen combined to wreck the stage. No one was hurt in the accident.
The concert was rescheduled for April 13 at La Guacima in Alajuela, but Axl Rose's band has now pulled out of the make up show, according to a message on Guns N' Roses' Facebook.com page on Tuesday, April 13.
The post reads: "Central America update: The previously announced rescheduled show in Costa Rica at La Guacima will unfortunately not happen." No further explanation was given for the cancellation.

Lixouri is a resort that appeals to people looking to enjoy low-key holidays where they can relax and enjoy the traditional Greek experience. Hiring a car in the resort would be an advantage but is not overly necessary. The transfer time for this resort can be up to 1 and a half hours meaning you have plenty of time to take in all of the surrounding scenery that you pass as well as gain an understanding of the location of the resort and the location of your accommodation within the resort. There is a beach in the resort, although it is rather basic. A better option is the nearby Lepeda Beach which has fine sand leading down to the shallow waters. Other beaches also offer sunbeds and parasols as well as a number of water sports for your enjoyment. There are a number of hotels in Lixouri as well as a number of self-catering apartments. The accommodation is mainly 3-4-stars, with the hotels offering half-board and all-inclusive options.
Lixouri has a number of places for you to go and explore, such as the ancient town of Pali at Palaeokastro or the Lakovatios Library which has an extensive, historical book collection. The beach life is mainly located near the resort with a number of water sports available such as windsurfing, surfing, scuba diving, snorkelling, jet-skiing, water-skiing, paragliding and hiring out pedalloes. Many people choose to go swimming at the beach in Lixouri itself. There are a number of local excursions available to you such as tours of the peninsula with its many monasteries, the local winery or even go to Argostoli for a days shopping and exploring. If this is still not enough for you then why not try one of the whole island tours where you will see things such as the Drogarati Cave and the Melissani lake grotto.
There are a number of taverns and restaurants for you to choose from in Lixouri traditionally offering the local Greek cuisine and seafood. There are a few places which offer more international cuisines, especially the hotels, even though Lixouri is famous locally for its ice cream. The nightlife in the resort is very low key with the main entertainment coming from the taverns and the bouzouki club which offers traditional music. Shopping in the resort consists of a few souvenir shops, some clothing boutiques and shoe shops. Argostoli has many more options available and is well worth a trip. Public transport in the resort is fairly good with buses taking you into Argostoli on a daily basis as well as a local ferry doing the same. Car and motorbike hire are available if you would prefer to get yourself around.
Lixouri has brilliant weather with over 300 days of sunshine per year. Summers in Lixouri are long and hot with winters being cool and wet. The average annual temperature is around 17.5°C however temperatures have been known to rise to 27°C and above. In April, the average temperature is around 15°C but rises to 20°C in May. April and May have around 8 hours of sunshine a day, with this rising to 12 in July and August. October and September still see temperatures of around 17-23°C and 6-8-hours of sunshine a day. November to February, temperatures drop and you will see more rainfall.

Phallic Suffering
The male slave's penis is locked into a device that she has been working on. The mechanism began as a male milking machine. Using electrical impulses, it can force a male to ejaculate without orgasm. It does not perform that function very well.
Creating weird penis discomfort and irritation is what the device does best. The unexpected result is a product more marketable than yet another male milking machine.
The test subject slave men report the sensations unlike anything else they have felt. One common description is that the sensations are disturbing. They are not able to clarify their feelings.
Even without a clear picture of the genital torment, the device is clearly a sex toy every female sadist will enjoy.
The perfected mechanism will include a remote control. All cell phones and tablets will be able to activate and manipulate it. Women at work needing some amusement can torment their male slaves at a distance.
The company expects the sex toy to be their most successful product ever.

Former Mr. Gay UK winner Dan Broughton is back once again to provide his expert cock-stroking skills to one of the new guys on the English Lads site, and this time it's cute and horny Jack Windsor getting his uncut meat played with by Dan and stroked all the way to a cum-spurting climax - and one that he will never forget! You probably know they like to push their new straight guys to the limit, but I guess the new guys know that already. They must check out the site and see what happens before they start, right? But it didn't put this lad off and although he seems a little shy and nervous to start with, Dan soon has him rock hard in his hot hands and he's beating that meat until Jack can't keep that cum in his nuts any longer and pumps out the mess all over himself! Who wants to make a bet that he'll be back to be sucked off in a couple of weeks? lol

TLRD is undoubtedly hot, but IMHO Kiss X Sis was far more titillating even though it had zero actual nudity.

Safety of equity investments becomes especially important during market downturns. Given the increased uncertainty in the markets, triggered by the reinstatement of higher capital gains taxes as of 2013 and the impending fiscal cliff that threatens to sink the economy into a recession, "safe" stocks are gaining in appeal. They are particularly popular because they have high long-term price stability and high financial strength, implying solid corporate balance sheets. These stocks generally fall less than the market as a whole when stock prices drop.
Value Line, an independent investment research and analysis company, ranks stocks according to its proprietary Safety Ranking methodology, granting the highest status to those stocks that are least risky investments relative to Value Line's universe of some 1,700 stocks, which accounts for 90% of market capitalization of all U.S.-based stocks.
For prudent investors, we have selected five stocks with Value Line's highest and above-average Safety ranks that pay above-average dividend yields, compared with the indicated dividend yield of the S&P 500, and have a high potential for capital appreciation. These five stocks have market capitalization in the range between $2.75 billion and $20 billion and dividend yields between 2.7% and 4.2%.
St. Jude Medical Inc. (NYSE:STJ) is a maker of cardiovascular and implantable neurostimulation medical devices. The company pays a dividend yield of 2.7% on a payout ratio of 39%. Its competitor Medtronic Inc. (NYSE:MDT) is yielding 2.4%, while rival Boston Scientific Corporation (NYSE:BSX) does not pay regular dividends. St. Jude Medical Inc.'s has demonstrated robust growth over the past five years, with EPS expanding, on average, 11.4% annually. Analysts expect that the medical device maker's new products and expansion in emerging markets will drive long-term growth for the company. EPS growth is expected to average 10.5% per year for the next five years. Dividends, which increased 9.5% in the first quarter from 2011, are up for another boost early next year. The company, which boasts a solid balance sheet and healthy free cash flow, is undertaking measures to lower operating expenses and to hedge against the upcoming MedTech tax from 2013. The stock has a high free cash flow yield of nearly 7%. It has an ROE of 16.5%. St. Jude's stock has a forward P/E of 9.8, and is priced at a discount to the medical equipment industry (with a forward P/E of 21.6) and competitor Medtronic (11.3). The stock is popular with Adage Capital (check out its top picks) and John Roger's Ariel Investments (review its top holdings).
The Washington Post Company (WPO) is not the usual dividend pick among income investors, but this owner of Kaplan Inc. education firm, its cash cow, and the Washington Post newspaper has raised dividends in nine out of 10 past years, or cumulatively by 69% since 2003. The company has announced it will pay its 2013 dividends before the end of this year to help investors avoid the planned dividend tax hikes. Its 2013 dividend of $9.80 per share, substituting for the regular quarterly dividends next year, will be payable December 27, to shareholders of record as of December 17. The regular dividend currently yields 2.7% on a payout ratio of 31%. The Washington Post Company's competitors The New York Times Company (NYSE:NYT) and Apollo Group (NASDAQ:APOL) do not pay regular dividends. Rival Gannett Co. Inc. (NYSE:GCI), the owner of USA Today, pays a high dividend yield of 4.5%. Over the past five years, the company's EPS shrank at an average annual rate of 15%, while its dividends increased at a rate of 3.6% per year. The EPS growth rate is forecast to accelerate sharply to an average of 18.1% per year for the next half decade. In terms of valuation, WPO has a forward P/E of 13.5, below its own 5-year average of 33.1. NYT has a lower forward P/E of 11.3. Investment guru Warren Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway is the single largest shareholder in the newspaper company, owning an estimated 1.7 million shares.
Norfolk Southern Corporation (NYSE:NSC) is a rail transportation company with a market cap of $19.4 billion. The company pays a dividend yielding 3.3% on a low payout ratio of 36%. Its competitors Union Pacific (NYSE:UNP) and CSX Corp. (NYSE:CSX) are paying lower dividend yields of 2.2% and 2.8%, respectively. Over the past five years, the company's EPS and dividends grew at average annual rates of 8.8% and 15.1%, respectively. Analysts forecast that Norfolk Southern's EPS will expand at a faster rate of 12.7% per year for the next half decade, which would suggest future dividend hikes. The past financial results were hurt by lower volumes of Appalachian coal shipments, which accounted for 31% of the company's revenue in 2011. However, the rising natural gas prices are improving the competitive position of coal, and coal prices and shipments may improve sometime in 2014. In the meantime, intermodal traffic, accounting for about 20% of sales, is picking up. Moreover, any improvement in macroeconomic conditions will support higher general merchandize traffic, which is dependent on the automotive, chemicals, farm, and paper industries. The company is also improving service capacity and network efficiency as well as buttressing its EPS growth through stock buybacks. Norfolk Southern has an ROE of 18%. Its stock is trading on a forward P/E of 11.3, a discount to its respective industry (with the ratio of 13.2). Legg Mason Capital Management and D. E. Shaw (check out its top positions) have positions in the stock.
Waste Management (NYSE:WM) is the largest provider of waste management solutions in North America. The company is also one of the major holdings in the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation Trust (check out its positions), valued at nearly $600 million at the end of the third quarter. The company's dividend is yielding 4.2% on a payout ratio of 76%. Its competitor Republic Services (NYSE:RSG), another, though a much-smaller holding in Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation Trust, is paying a dividend yield of 3.2%. Over the past five years, Waste Management's EPS shrank by less than 1% per year, while its dividends expanded at an average annual rate of 8.1%. EPS growth is forecast to rebound to an average rate of 7.3% per year for the next five years. The entire waste management sector has experienced slower growth this year, mainly due to restructuring and acquisition charges, lower recycling and electricity prices, and higher operating costs. However, the outlook is rosy given the expected boost in demand from expanding populations and faster long-term economic growth. Waste Management's stock has an ROE of 14%. Based on a forward P/E of 15.2, the stock is trading at a discount to its respective industry (with the ratio of 17.7) and its five-year average ratio. For the reference, Republic Services has a forward P/E of 15.6.
ConAgra Foods, Inc. (NYSE:CAG) is a consumer and commercial foods producer with brands in nearly 97% of American households. This $12-billion company pays a dividend yield of 3.4% on a payout ratio of 66%. As a share of trailing free cash flow, its dividend payout ratio is lower at 58%. ConAgra's dividend growth over the past five years averaged nearly 6.0% per year. Its peers H. J. Heinz Company (HNZ) and Nestle SA (OTCPK:NSRGY) pay dividend yields of 3.5% and 3.2%, respectively. Over the past five years, ConAgra's EPS grew at an average annual rate of 3.3%. The food producer's EPS growth for the next five years is forecast to accelerate to 6.8% per year, excluding the growth contribution from the company's $5 billion deal to buy private-label company Ralcorp Holdings Inc. (RAH). This deal will make the Omaha, NE-based company one of the world's 20 largest food producers. In particular, ConAgra will become a giant in the production of private-label products, complementing its current broad portfolio of consumer food products. The company has a free cash flow yield of 2.7% and an ROE of 13.6%. As regards its valuation, ConAgra shares have a forward P/E of 14.1, trading at a discount to its respective industry (with a forward P/E averaging 16.9) and H. J. Heinz Company's ratio of 16.7. ConAgra was one of hedge funds' 10 most popular food stocks in the third quarter (check out the full list). Among hedge funds, Adage Capital is especially bullish about ConAgra Foods.

from The Daily Bell:
Help American Workers. Pass TPP … Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump have both said they will oppose the Trans-Pacific Partnership, a trade pact between the U.S. and 11 nations negotiated by the Obama administration and signed in February. But their views shouldn't matter much, because the issue should never get to the next president's desk. Congressional consideration of the agreement has been delayed long enough. Congress should vote on the bill — and pass it — before the year is out. – Bloomberg
Mike Bloomberg wrote an editorial boosting the Trans Pacific Partnership TPP. This is just one of three "trade agreements" that are putting in place a 21st century global sociopolitical and economic structure.
Bloomberg is a multi-billionaire and he understands the benefits that the upcoming structure will bestow on a relative handful of people including himself.
And so he supports these agreements.
Anti-trade sentiment has made it fashionable for candidates to oppose TPP. But while a vocal and energized faction of voters on the left and right advocate protectionist measures, most Americans — including majorities in both parties and among independents — believe more trade is good for the American economy.
So do nearly all economists and a large majority of the business and agriculture communities. Global trade opens up new markets to American businesses, creating new opportunities to grow. In fact, the U.S. actually runs a cumulative trade surplus in manufactured goods with our 20 trade agreement partners, and we've long run global trade surpluses for services and agricultural products.
This sounds fine but it has little to do with what is actually going on.

Just as a painter instinctively reaches for the right brush, a portrait artist reaches for an 85mm lens. The focal length is ideal for producing a pleasing image with true-to-life facial features in accurate proportion. While a wide-angle lens makes close objects appear larger than they are, and longer telephotos compress and flatten features, the 85mm medium telephoto is just right. Plus the working distance between you and your subject is perfect for making the personal connection that's often missing when using a zoom.
The Tamron SP 85mm F/1.8 is the world's first* 85mm fast-aperture lens with image stabilisation. Its unique design allows us to include our VC (Vibration Compensation) system – without the lens becoming too large or heavy. What's more, our SP 85mm f/1.8 delivers edge-to-edge viewfinder brightness for ease of composition and superior low-light performance. The fast aperture of the f/1.8 also offers the perfect balance of subject sharpness and bokeh, that dreamy blur which separates your portrait subject from the background.
Sharper images. Better bokeh.
To meet and surpass the needs of modern cameras with high resolution and high pixel densities, the SP 85mm F/1.8 employs LD and XLD low dispersion glass elements to correct critical aberrations. Superb optical design makes colour fringing inconspicuous, achieving sharp and clear image quality and enabling outstanding performance at any illumination level. eBAND and BBAR coatings work in concert with wide-ranging anti-reflection techniques to increase light transmission, reduce flare and ghosting, and to prevent reflections inside the lens barrel.
The SP 85mm F/1.8 is designed to provide tack-sharpness of the subject for stunning clarity and flawless image quality. At the same time, Tamron's design philosophy embraces the notion that photographers – particularly portrait photographers – use background blur, bokeh , as a creative element to concentrate emphasis on the subject. Through numerous simulations conducted for wide-ranging blur effects, such as a gentle, melting transition from the focused to the out-of-focus areas, Tamron has created a soft and natural blur effect that achieves perfect harmony with the inescapable sharpness.
Hold steady with Vibration Compensation
The SP 85mm F/1.8 is the world's first* lens with a fixed focal length of 85mm and a fast aperture of f/1.8 that's equipped with the VC system. Camera movement – often too minute to be perceptible to the photographer – is the leading cause of unsharp photographs, especially in newer DSLR cameras with higher pixel densities and finer image resolution.
VC technology makes it possible to take photographs handheld in dim light and to make optimal use of slower shutter speeds and increased depth of field without extreme increase of the camera's sensor sensitivity (ISO equivalent). This is especially important in portraiture because lighting is often low and the photographer needs the spontaneity of not using a tripod or disruptive flash units.
Resists Moisture, Repels Smudges
Moisture-Resistant Construction, including special seals at areas of possible ingress, provides added protection. A highly durable Fluorine Coating, applied to the surface of the top element, prevents condensation and repels smudges, grime and fingerprints.
Expand Your Options with TAP-in Console
The future is here. Now you can update firmware, customise autofocus positions and adjust the mechanical setup and preferences of the SP 85mm F/1.8 by simply attaching it to the TAMRON TAP-in Console and connecting it via USB to a personal computer.
Smart design. Inside and out.
The superior technology inside the Tamron SP 85mm F/1.8 is matched by advanced external ergonomic features under a design philosophy called "Human Touch." Improvements include altering the geometric shape and resistance of the AF/MF and VC switches to deliver comfort with secured operational feedback, and enlarging the distance scale window to maximise visibility and legibility.
Even the font style has been newly developed to enhance legibility as part of the overall product design.
The SP Series Prime Lens Lineup
The SP series lenses – 35mm, 45mm, 90mm Macro and 85mm – are built to achieve optimal performance, including functionality, handling and physical design. All deliver maximal sharpness, clarity and optical fidelity and are compatible with both full-frame and APS-C type DSLRs.

William Birchart / William Burchard in Guernsey County 1830 and 1840
Does anyone have any information about William Burchard (born 1790-1800)) or William Birchart (born 1770-1780) of Washington and Monroe Townships, Guernsey County, Ohio in 1830 and 1840? Possible daughter or sister Margaret that married Abraham Parrott in Guernsey County in 1837. Margaret reports that both of her parents were born in Ohio. Any help would be appreciated. Some members of the family believe Margaret to be a Birdsal but she is living next to William Burchard and I think that is most likely her father at this time. The other William could be a brother or a mistranscription for the same man. Thank you.

Fabrication of high hardness Ni mold with electroless nickel–boron thin layer
- First Online:
- Received:
- Accepted:

The nickel electroforming method using a high-concentration nickel sulfamate bath is commonly used to fabricate micro metal molds in the LIGA process; however, this method does not produce micro metal molds of sufficient hardness. One means of improving the hardness of micro metal molds made using the nickel electroforming method is to include additives in the nickel plating solution. Another method is nickel alloy plating or a similar technique. In this research, we used a nickel–boron (Ni–B) electroless alloy plating method to obtain a hard nickel plated film having hardness of 832 Hv. It was also ascertained that Ni–B electroless alloy plated film retains its high hardness even during heat treatment in conditions of 250°C for 1 h. To deal with the high stresses developed in high-hardness plated films, we proposed double-layer nickel electroforming. This method is covered and used on conventional nickel electroforming layer by high hardness micro mold. High hardness micro metal mold using double-layer was fabricated by nickel electroforming and Ni–B electroless alloy plating method.

Cancer Therapy in Cats
The cats are lovely pets. There are so many health issues in cats just like the human beings. The cancer problem is very common in cats. Let us discuss here about the treatment options available, the expected prognosis and the cat owners role etc.
The cancer treatments are in general time consuming and expensive. The cat owner must clear all his doubts before deciding about the treatment option. Of late the cancer treatment is very effective and there are very minimal side effects due to the advancement in the field of cancer treatment. The pain management and the nutritional support plays vital role in the out come of the cancer treatment. Many cancer types can be cured completely if treated early. The lovely pet cats can live longer now days. The pet owner is also a part of health care team and hence the pet owner should under stand more about the cancer treatment options.
One should be aware that there is no single treatment for cancer. The cancer treatment plan varies from case to case and the treatment option needs to be customized. Cancer treatment is always a combination of treatment. This way the cancer can be treated quickly and the side effects can be minimized to a great extend.
Radiation therapy
Radiation therapy requires special equipment and not every hospital will have this. Hence it is the duty of the owner to enquire about the hospital before selecting the place of treatment. There are side effects in radiation therapy also. The side effects are because of the burn of the tissues that are located in the vicinity of the affected part. If the tumour is located near very sensitive tissue, then the radiation treatment is bit complicated. The sensitive tissues will be damaged badly due to radiation and the side effect will be more severe. In general the affected good tissue will regenerate in due course and the normal function can be restored.
In radiation therapy the tumour cells are targeted and the radiation renders the tumour cells unable to multiply and as the result the tumour shrinks in size. Over the period of time the tumour cells will be completely destroyed and the tumour will disappear completely. The tumours that can not be removed by way of operation are treated with radiation. The cats are given anaesthesia while treating them with radiation in order to restrict the movement of the animal for better focussing of the targeted tissue.
Chemotherapy is nothing but treating the tumour with chemicals. The chemotherapy is very effective but the side effects are very intimidating. At present different chemicals are used at very low frequency and dosage along with anti cancer agents to improve the efficiency of the treatment as well as reducing the side effects. The treatment is carried out in such a way that there is sufficient time gap between each administration. This will help the cat to cope up with the side effects. The possible side effects are poor appetite, nausea, vomiting, low white cell count, irritation at the sight of the injection, lethargy, poor immune function etc.
The chemicals that are used in the cancer treatment destroy the cells that are dividing faster. The cancer cells multiply faster and hence are targeted by the injected chemicals. The side effects are because the normal cells that divide also get affected by the chemical used to destroy the cancer cells. The cells in the gut and immune system divide faster and hence are affected more during the chemotherapy as they are caught in the cross fire.
Surgical removal of the tumour is very common practice. The external tumours are removed using the surgery. There are so many surgical techniques such as laser surgery, cryosurgery, radiosurgery and traditional scalpel surgery. The most difficult aspect of the surgical treatment is removing the tumour cells completely leaving nothing in the body. In general the surgeon will remove not only the tumour but also the tissue surrounding the tumour in order to ensure the cancer cells are completely removed from the body. The removed tissue will be sent to pathology lab for histopathological study to confirm the diagnosis. As it is not possible to remove the cancer cells completely using surgical technique, this treatment option will be combined with chemotherapy or radiation therapy.
Adjunctive care
The cancer patient should be given best nutrition. But extra nutrition needs to be avoided. The food provided should be digested easily and ingredient provided should be of high quality. The cat should be hand fed to increase the appetite. At times the appetite stimulant also needs to be provided.
