There are various reasons to larn a 2d vernacular and even more to swot Spanish. First of all, basic cognitive process a second language for a minor will back past academically if they have a real hunger to cram that second vocalizations. It will lend a hand them with their English studies and distribute them passion in their otherwise subjects. As an adult, it will relieve with job prospects and art development as they will be much flexible and have a individual power to bring out to the work state of affairs. It could even metallic element to touring and seeing the world on position of your institution. In vocabulary of the Spanish language, it is probably the tertiary most widely by word of mouth linguistic communication in the world so you are not dangerous in the familiarity that you will be competent to use the writing skills that you have well-read. In America, plentiful gargantuan Spanish communities be real so location will be a inevitability to use Spanish in a universal and commercial dimensions. Learning Spanish can expand the door to study Italian and French as they are all Romantic languages and have a greatly matching grammatic composition (in fact, the hardest slice will be exploit the delivery proper).
So near are one groovy reasons to learn Spanish but isn't it a bit stinging and deadening erudition a new language? Is it budding to swot up Spanish in 3 months ?
Well, the statement to the introductory query is yes and no. If you meditate it'll be sensitive it belike will be. It's all in the noesis. If you can in an even way reinforce the benefits of acquisition a new speaking and wages yourself when you brand mini breakthroughs in your research next the modus operandi may be more than worthwhile and lovely.Post ads:

In expressions of the ordinal question, research any communication in 3 months is a hardy ask. Again, I regard as it comes downfield to noesis and whim to larn. The rife adage of many another winning associates is to do some it takes. No situation what obstacles they facade they will keep on. You should income this mental attitude into your Spanish research. Maybe you will bring home the bacon in iii months or i don't know you won't but you will have the correct mental attitude to be gleeful.
After this you can do a cipher of things that can advance your likelihood of picking up the tongue rapidly. I would say the second-best is to live in in a countryside where that spoken communication is verbalized. This is glorious as immersion research. This is the verbal communication erudition same of state chucked in at the reflective end. Sure, it power be startling but you're too drudging conscious (and talking) day to day to show on this. You will swot up in need reasoning going on for it.
But not each one can singing in different region newly to acquire a language, so what is the alternative? Immersion life. Part of the puzzle next to learning a expressions is that you larn it for a few hours and after tip out wager on on your indigenous clapper. Why not try having an submerging period wherever you cry (or at least possible try) Spanish short resorting to English. This doesn't have to be inflexible speaking, you could listen in to Spanish music, examine films. You could deep-fry behind Spanish recipes. Play flash paper games. Devote many hours to same gain knowledge of courses. Go to writing exchanges wherever you are put in touch with Spanish family research your verbal communication. Go to forums on the internet to preparation Spanish print.Post ads:

Eat some of the sugary creations and sell the rest at a bake sale, donating the profits to a charity or using them to fund your next cookie-decorating gathering.
Paint By Number Club
Even those that lack artistic skill can produce an aesthetically pleasing creation with paint-by-number. Elderly community individuals can turn the completion of this simple art task into an social activity through the formation of a paint by number club. To offer this enjoyable past-time to seniors in your area, purchase sets of paint by number projects and plan a weekly painting gathering. Give each participant one of these sets and gather them around them table, allowing them to mix and mingle while completing their projects.

Author | exchange4media Chennai Bureau | Tuesday, Jul 05,2005 7:24 AM
RK Swamy/BBDO has announced account wins to the tune of over Rs 100 crore in the last six months. And the agency expects to bag at least another Rs 50 crore worth of accounts by the end of 2005.
In a press release disseminated to the media on Monday, the agency announced that its wins included the accounts of Indian Airlines, India Tourism, IndusInd Bank, Cognizant (CTS), Mars chocolates, Videocon Home Appliances and Get It Yellow Pages.
Speaking to exchange4media, Srinivasan Swamy, CEO, RK Swamy/BBDO, said, "We are finalists in at least four or five pitches which are happening. We expect to win accounts worth more than Rs 50 crore in the next six months."
The agency hopes that new business will also flow from empanelment by State Bank of India, ONGC and Canara Bank. Another growth area is expected to be the national HIV communications project from UNICEF/NACO.
The agency was roped in by Indian Airlines in early 2005, and India Tourism in March. The India Tourism campaign is on from June 2005. While IndusInd Bank came into its fold a month ago, Cognizant has been a part of its portfolio since April, as has been Mars chocolates.
On the increased spending by government agencies, Swamy said, "Government undertakings have not been serious spenders until recently. In the 70s and 80s, they were. Now they're facing competition and have begun spending again."
The relaunched media wing of the agency, Media Direction, has also made gains, winning the media business of SBI Mutual Fund and Witco. The agency, with its five key divisions including Media Direction, Social & Rural Communications Group, Proximity India specializing in CRM, Human Resources Services Group and the Pharma Services Group, hopes to cash in with its "comprehensive array of services", according to Swamy.

Lists, some love to make them and others absolutely hate them. If you're like me you've probably been debating over and over in your own mind where you would rank your favorite teammates throughout the series.
The idea
We all prefer some characters over others, not just for their individual skills and powers, but also weighing in on personal feelings. We can all debate on who is better than who in effectiveness and/or reliability when it comes down to it, but the reality is that all of the characters have their ups and downs based on different mission situations. The rest simply falls into personal preference.
So how do you rank your top 10? Better yet, where do you rank all of Shepard's possible teammates? There are 20 to choose from all-in-all, though some of which we may not have even played with depending on our choices or content. Two examples being whether or not you were able to play the first game with Urdnot Wrex or whether you sided with Samara or her daughter Morinth.
You don't need to be specific about every decision you've made, but at the least provide an idea of why you chose some of your favorites. However, you can be as detailed as you want. I know most of us like sharing our favorite moments.
The list
- Liara T'Soni
- Garrus Vakarian
- Thane Krios
- Tali'Zorah nar Rayya
- Legion
- Mordin Solus
- Urdnot Wrex
- Samara
- Javik
- Grunt
- Miranda Lawson
- Jacob Taylor
- James Vega
- Kaidan Alenko
- Ashley Williams
- Kasumi Goto
- Jack
- Zaeed Massani
- Morinth
The details
Honestly, my first Mass Effect game was the third. When I was introduced to James Vega and Ashley Williams for the first time I thought, "oh great, another game with stereotypical characters. While my opinion of both of characters has changed a bit, my interest in the series really started to kick in when Liara was introduced. Everything about the character was interesting, from her biotic abilities to her personality. After playing for a while I thought to myself, "It would cool if my character could get with her." Little did I know that he actually could—hilarious when I found that out, sad when I finally got to the ending romance scene. My only disappointment was having so little dialog at the Shadow Broker base with her.
Garrus isn't a first or second choice when it comes to squad selection, but he gives off that best buds vibe. I really enjoyed most of the dialog between him and my Shepard, minus using the calibrations excuse to brush me off nicely. "Talk to ya' later Garrus!" Thane is simply a really interesting character and unlike anyone else. I think I enjoyed his dialog more than any other in ME2, which made him my favorite debut of that particular game. During any following play through I didn't skip any of his dialog. When I killed Kai Leng, I mostly thought about avenging Thane.
Tali and Legion are about equal to be honest. On my first play through ME3 I made the decision to side with Legion on Rannoch as I could not understand the Quarian problem with the Geth. When Tali killed herself, I felt pretty bad, even more so when I went back and played through the first two games. I found her to be very charming and cute, which is odd considering that we never see her face (sorry, I don't count that bad Photoshop job). Legion on the other hand is just interesting, I wished there were more scenes involving it, perhaps giving it more time to be a part of Shepard's squad in ME3.
Mordin changed my whole perspective on video gaming. What I mean is that on my first play through, when he went up to cure the Genophage and there was nothing I could do about it except kill him, I was pretty upset! I ended up going back to an early save to build up as much paragon as I could to let him live. I liked him even more in the second game.
I didn't get to see Urdnot Wrex at all until a few weeks ago when a friend of mine let me borrow his 360 while he went on vacation. I like Wrex's attitude, which really altered my interest in the Krogan. After I finished the game I went back to my copy of ME2 and made changes to let him live. Samara's story is quite interesting and one of my favorites of ME2. She also makes a great teammate. When I went back to side with Morinth, I felt pretty bad betraying her. I liked Morinth's special ability, but for me it wasn't worth killing Samara.
Javik's honesty and negativity in his dialog is hilarious at times. He also makes an incredible teammate. Perhaps they could have come up with a better accent though ... Grunt on the other hand only had decent dialog, but he was my favorite teammate in ME2 during missions. Playing on higher difficulties, I often have him with me.
Getting down to the lower ranks—I actually don't care much for EDI on my squad in ME3, but I like the character throughout the series. I'm not sure why I don't rank Miranda higher. I liked her powers and her story is pretty interesting. I guess I just never got into her. Same goes for Jacob, only I didn't care as much for him on my squad at all. James Vega kind of rubbed off on me eventually, but like with Kaidan and Ashley I never really got into them.
Like with Zaeed, I didn't really get into Kasumi. I wanted more dialog from both characters. I rank Kasumi higher since I really enjoyed her loyalty mission in ME2. Jack on other hand was just irritating. Her personality reminds me of a girl I knew in high school. I absolutely cannot stand those "life sucks" kind of people in real life, so I can't imagine why I would like one in a game. I just wanted to tell her off every time she opened her mouth. Still, I ranked Morinth and Zaeed below her, the latter on account of looking so incredibly stupid and being so boring. Sorry Zaeed fans.
The response
This is where you come in. Where do you rank your squad through the series? I'd like to make note of everyone's list and put together an overall Wiki ranking.

Islamic heritage is in danger and the threat to sites such as the tomb of the Holy Prophet Mohammad is coming from none other than an entity that had sworn to protect it – the Saudi government.
While reports of Prophet Mohammad's tomb allegedly being bulldozed are nothing new; what is absolutely astonishing is that the Kingdom has been razing sites of great historical significance to further their economic gains.
Over the years the Saudi government has razed many historical sites including mosques and homes belonging to companions and wives of Prophet Mohammed.
These expansion plans of Masjid-e-Nabawi (The Prophet's mosque) in the city of Medina include Riyadh al-Jannah (Garden of Paradise), a section of the mosque that the Prophet declared especially holy. It also includes the flattening of the graves of Mohamed, Abu Bakr and Umar. companions of Prophet Mohammed and two of the four Muslim caliphs (Khulfa-e-Rashideen).
The sites already demolished both in the cities of Mecca and Medina were of great reverence to Muslims all over the world as well as great archeological and historic importance.
Saudi authorities claim the move is being made to accommodate more pilgrims, which if read between the lines, translates into further profits for the custodians of the Kaaba, a structure Muslims all over the world face towards while praying.
The Holy Mosque, Mecca:
Present Day:
Hardly any part of the Mosque in Mecca, which houses the Kaaba, has been spared from the renovations.
Most of the Ottoman and Abbasid sections have also been demolished. What remains now are colossal mosques with the ability to accommodate millions of pilgrims surrounded by looming hotels, restaurants and shopping plazas.
According to an estimate, 95 percent of Mecca's millennium-old buildings have been demolished in the past two decades alone.
The Saudi government claims the expansion is necessary to accommodate millions of pilgrims who visit the holy cities of Mecca and Medina every year, but the fact is that the very heritage of Islam's two holiest cities is being destroyed.
The skyscrapers, shopping malls ( with the likes of Starbucks, Burger King, Nine West and Aldo etc) and luxury hotels standing in place of sites of immense historic and religious significance indicate the stupendous amounts of money the religious tourism brings in for the Kingdom.
In 2012, Saudi Arabia earned about US$16.5bn from the annual pilgrimage rituals of Hajj and Umrah. According to the same report, the revenue from the pilgrims to the holy city of Mecca, Medina and other religious sites in the kingdom, accounts for about 3 percent of the kingdom's gross domestic product. It also added that more than 7 million pilgrims visit Saudi Arabia's holy sites every year with religious tourists spending about US$10,000 per visit.
They may call it expansion to accommodate pilgrims; but in reality it is nothing more than vandalism and profiteering.

A jumble of cool stuff I saw this week that you might like to see, too!
First off, if you're not watching Orphan Black, you SO need to! I checked out the first season from the library and I've blown through the first eight episodes. I have two more to watch tonight, and I am both excited to watch them and crushed because there won't be any more after I do. Until season two starts. In APRIL!
Anyway, this is the first scene of the show.
Tell me you're not hooked!
If you're like me, European soccer leagues are baffling and you can't keep all the characters in Game of Thrones straight. So let's put those two things together, 'kay?
This article will terrify you and make you so, so mad.
Charlie Brown and the Smiths are a match made in mopey heaven.
Libraries are so much more than books!
As a college football freak who works every other Saturday, I love the heck out of this.
This houseboat is basically the best thing ever.
Now, some good things to eat!
This burger, y'all.
I have a pretty solid go-to pancake recipe. I would stray from it to make these banana pancakes with peanut butter syrup.
And since the oven will be free, well hello, Sun-Dried Tomato and Pesto Dinner Rolls.
I have never heard of Tennessee Cheddar Puffs, but they look awesome.
That's it, guys! Have a wonderful weekend!

95 - 111 Final
Jackson helps Warriors hang onto eighth place in WestMar 28, 2008 - 6:18 AM By Ryan Leong PA SportsTicker Contributing Writer
OAKLAND, California (Ticker) -- The Golden State Warriors used a team effort to hold onto the eighth and final playoff spot in the Western Conference.
Stephen Jackson scored 24 points to lead six players in double figures as the Warriors claimed a 111-95 victory over the Portland Trail Blazers on Thursday night.
Monta Ellis had 18 points and 10 rebounds while Kelenna Azubuike contributed 14 and five off the bench for Golden State (44-27), which remained one-half game in front of the Denver Nuggets (44-28) for eighth place in the West.
"This is what playoff basketball is all about," said Warriors guard Baron Davis, who played only 27 minutes due to flu-like symptoms. "We've got to come with it and there's no night off from here on out. We played well enough to get a nice cushion tonight and we've got a tough one coming up on Saturday and Sunday."
LaMarcus Aldridge, who missed Tuesday's game against the Washington Wizards with a sprained right ankle scored 17 points for the Trail Blazers. However, Portland was again without All-Star Brandon Roy, who is expected to miss at least three more games with a strained right groin.
"If this is the eighth seed and they beat us this bad tonight, going forward and when we're trying to get into the playoffs, if the eighth seed is this good, imagine how good the No. 1 or No. 2 seed is," Aldridge said. "So it shows us to be in that playoff race and to be in the playoffs, you've got to be a good team that executes down the stretch."
Steve Blake led Portland with 22 points but it wasn't enough to prevent the Blazers from falling to 13-25 on the road this season.
The Warriors trailed, 52-51, entering halftime but quickly seized the advantage after the break.
Ellis started out the third with a fast-break reverse layup, shifting the momentum to the Warriors. However, the Blazers continued to battle, tying the score 59-59 with 8:59 left in the third quarter.
The Warriors took control of the game from there, putting together a 17-5 run over the next 3:34 to forge a 12-point lead following a 3-pointer and two free throws by Matt Barnes and one foul shot from Azubuike with 5:25 remaining in the quarter.
"All we care about is the end result and we got a good one," Golden State coach Don Nelson said. "I didn't like our start but I had enough guys play well that we won a game that we were supposed to win."
Portland briefly narrowed the lead to nine but Jackson scored nine points over the final five minutes of the period as the Warriors lead ballooned to 91-72 entering the final frame. Golden State finished with 40 points in the third.
"We learned that we've got a ways to go and for all that we have done this season, we've still got a ways to go," Portland coach Nate McMillan said.
After the Blazers took a 26-12 lead in the first quarter, the Warriors outscored them, 79-46, en route to their 19-point lead entering the fourth quarter.
"We were a little flat but we found a way to win," Jackson said. "We got it going in the second half. We can't play like that on the road, though. We've got some good teams coming up so I'm glad we got the kinks out tonight and hopefully we'll be ready against Denver (Saturday)."
The Warriors closed the first period with a 10-4 run, highlighted by one of Jackson's four 3-pointers, to cut the lead to 30-28.
Golden State continued to chip away at the deficit and eventually took the lead, 44-42, with 3:44 remaining on a 3-pointer by Al Harrington from the baseline.
The lead was short-lived, though, as Blake answered with eight points in the final minutes of the second to give Portland a one-point lead at halftime.

Right to the wire...we've managed to fit in another fantastic interview for the doc - and what an interview to end with! Dredd himself - Karl Urban.
Karl was over in the UK in the guise of that other sic-fi legend he portrays on screen - Dr Leonard "Bones" McCoy. We visited him at Destination Star Trek being held at Excel in London - an extravaganza of all thing Trek!
Despite a hectic schedule, Karl very generously sat down with us to discuss Dredd, both the film itself and his love of the character growing up in New Zealand.
Amongst various topics, we chatted about the importance of keeping the helmet on, acting without being able to use your eyes and keeping "Old Stoney Face's" dialogue to an absolute minimum - why use 3 words when 1 would do...! It was clear that Karl took the role very seriously and was absolutely focused on creating an on-screen version of Dredd that stayed true to John Wagner's iconic character.
It was a cool interview, we covered a lot of ground - now all we have to do is try and get him into the master edit in time for the UK Premiere at the BFI! Tickets for which, in case you hadn't heard are on sale now!

Chapter 7: Sunday
John fidgeted nervously as he watched Delenn take in their bedroom, the new improved bedroom, as far as John was concerned. Delenn had risen early that morning, getting in a couple of meetings before her doctor's appointment; John still amazed how Minbari had nothing in their culture that would constitute a weekend. That was just wrong on so many levels. But it also explained why Delenn had given him such an unfathomable look when he'd suggested a five-day work week for Alliance business. Yeah, that had been an interesting cultural exchange.
"Is this why you decided not to attend my appointment with me?" Delenn asked, turning from the room to face him, "Why you had Ranger Tannier deliver a vial of your blood to Dr. Fulan this morning?" She looked adorable today, John thought, whenever Delenn shed her normal work robes in favor of her more simple, form fitting ones. Today, she wore a white robe with pearl beads for buttons that opened at the top, dipping into a high V, meeting at the fitted waist, and flowing in soft ripples down her legs.
John nodded, and then stepped closer. "Do you like it, honey?" God, John hoped she did. Between the cost and the labor, John was ready to put in for another week off. He was too old for all he'd done this week. But it was worth it. Every smile, every laugh, every joyful tear, and every loving embrace from Delenn made it all worth it—aches and all. But next spring, John sobered, the house staff wouldn't have to call Delenn behind his back, because there was no way in hell he was doing the spring cleaning all by himself.
Delenn smiled up at him beatifically, her radiance erasing the last shoulder ache, dulling it in to serene throb of husbandly pride. John had given her an early spring, the groundhog finally seeing its shadow, the long winter night finally over.
"It's," Delenn gestured to the room, walking away from him as she began to explore, "lovely, John, reminds me of your bedroom on Babylon 5." Delenn glanced down at the most obvious similarity. "I was unaware you ordered a human bed from Earth." She moved closer, head tilting to the right and then the left. "It's much larger than the one on the station."
She raised her head and their eyes met, and John cleared his throat. "Well, um, honey, human beds come in various sizes—twin, full, double—depending on the size of the person or the . . . um need."
"Need?" she questioned, but posed another before John had a chance to fumble out an answer. "What size bed is this? I know you're tall, but I don't even think you require all that space." Delenn pointed to the bed, then ran her hand over the royal blue bed covering, the color Delenn said she saw when she dreamed of him.
"Well, it's a king-sized bed, Delenn, the largest size in fact."
"And why in the name of Valen do we need such a big bed—Oh," she said, a bright blush forming against all the white she wore, the answer to her question having been quickly worked out in her own mind.
John couldn't help but smile. In some ways, Delenn could be such a prude. Not when it came to making love, thank god, but in other ways, normally situations in which her more sensual side was glaringly obvious because there was no ritual for her to hide behind.
Delenn turned back to the large bed, and ran a hand over her cheek. "It looks c-comfortable."
John wrapped his arms around his wife from behind, wedging himself as close as possible against her, his lips going to her ear. "It does at that, honey. But I can't quite tell from here. I believe a hands-on test is in order."
"You haven't even asked about the results of the test," Delenn said, accepting John's nibbles to her neck with a sweet, low, moan of pleasure.
John bit deeper, sinking his teeth in with just the right amount of pressure, and soothing tongue, forcing Delenn to open her mouth on a gasp. Taking the opportunity given, John quickly spun Delenn around, capturing her mouth and the moan, creating a new one. He kissed her, all mouth and tongue, urgently fastening on to her, dipping inside her wet warmth the way he hadn't been able to do in three frustrating weeks. And it was as delicious as John remembered, her lips soft and firm under his, honeyed breath tingling his nostrils, tongue adventurous and sublime.
Delenn kissed him back, her fervor no less than his own. She wrapped those thin but amazingly strong arms around his neck, pulling John down to her, deepening the kiss, claiming his mouth with ardor. "How did you know?" Delenn murmured when they came up for air.
"You aren't breathing fire at me or the universe. In my mind, that's a big thumbs up that I can do this—''
John captured her lips again, his hands going to Delenn's head, gently tilting to better explore her mouth, feel her body as she melted into him, running exploratory hands under his shirt, burning him with her touch when flesh met flesh.
Abruptly, John ripped his mouth away from hers, causing Delenn to stare up at him in surprise, lust rimming her eyes. God, he was going to have to make this quick, for there was no way in hell he could hold off long with her looking at him like that, the scent of her desire calling to him—glorious nectar to a starving bee.
"Sit, please, Delenn," John said, moving around her and to the bed. He patted a spot on the left side of the bed, her side. She sat, her gaze never leaving his, and John couldn't help it; his eyes slid to her mouth, swollen slightly from his ardent kisses. How he'd missed those lips these past few weeks, kissing a staple of his Babylon 5 diet before the Shan'Fal.
John quickly turned away from Delenn. He walked to his closet, opened the tinted glass door, and retrieved an item from the bottom. Holding the item by the handle, John walked back to Delenn, who was now eyeing him and the gift with curious, wide orbs.
Before Delenn could ask the obvious question, John said, "It's an Easter basket."
Delenn glanced down at her charm bracelet. "Another symbol?"
John sat beside Delenn, the basket on his lap. "On Earth, humans celebrate Easter in a variety of ways. In my family, like many families, my parents always had an Easter basket waiting for us when we woke Easter morning. Liz and I would scramble out of bed and hustle down to the living room to see what the Easter bunny had left for us."
"Easter bunny?"
"Yeah, well, it's one of those legends human parents pass on to their children, about a giant bunny hopping from house to house, bestowing gifts of small toys and chocolates."
"Like this Santa Claus of yours?" Delenn questioned, the slightest of frowns forming. Yeah, a minor version of the way she looked when he'd explained Christmas. Something else he would have to review with her once their child was born, for there was no way a Sheridan would go without Santa, a tree, or Christmas.
"So," she began, clearly picking up his train of thought, "you intend on regaling our child with traditions that involve an overly large rabbit that dispenses chocolates to kids, an overweight man in a red costume who manages to traverse the planet in one night while being pulled by flying mammals, and an Easter basket full of sweets." Delenn shook her head. "No wonder your Easter bunny and Saint Nicholas are so large, all human holidays seem to involve the consumption of sugary, tooth decaying, and waist expanding foods."
Delenn tried to peer into the basket, a sheet of colored tissue paper covering the top. "While I expect to gain some weight during this pregnancy, I don't intend, however, to do it by filling my body with sweet, human treats. Although," she admitted, "I have had the strangest craving for that strawberry shortcake you used to order for me whenever we managed to make it to the Fresh Aire." Delenn gave the basket another wondering look. "You wouldn't happen to have one in that basket of yours, would you, John?"
His wife. Sometimes it was best just to let her speak and not interrupt or disagree, especially when it came to human culture and customs. In the end, it worked out better for the both of them. Delenn vented, questioned, and complained, and John was invariably rewarded by her eventual acquiescence.
"You know, Delenn," he said with a mischievous grin, "just for that, I should keep my Easter basket to myself. Clearly my wife doesn't appreciate a husband who spends three hours trolling downtown Tuzanor for the perfect gift."
John made to rise, but Delenn stopped him, grabbing his arm and pulling him back down.
"I think, John," Delenn said, leaning in to give him a kiss, "that you best allow me to open my gift before I rain fire down on you."
"Ah, my dragon awakens," John laughed, then handed Delenn the wicker basket trimmed in yellow, pink, and white silk strips.
Before Delenn removed the tissue paper, she gave John a serious look. "Valen once said, a gift is what one receives when they live their life in the service of others without expectation of glory, honor, or reciprocity. The most treasured of gifts are those not given out of duty, fealty, or pride, but those given because of love, devotion, and sacrifice."
Delenn touched John's cheek then, her small hand gliding over his face, finger sliding down to trace his lips.
"Open the gift, Delenn," John croaked with deep emotion, "before you cause us both to turn into watering pots, as my Nana used to say."
Delenn smiled, wiped a stray tear, and then removed the green tissue paper. Her eyes widened in surprise, and John was beginning to love that expression on her, a clear sign he had done something right. And beside the wide eyes she'd given him when she'd seen the mess he'd made of their living room, all the others this week were brimmed with blissful happiness.
And, no, John knew not to fill his wife's Easter basket with eggs, candy, flowers, or any other trinket she would find useless and trivial. Instead, he'd given her a very practical gift, one a logical person, such as Delenn, could appreciate.
Slowly, Delenn removed each item, cradling each one reverently before placing it back into the basket: Premur, a simple flatbread favored by the Worker Caste during their morning prayer break. According to the baker from whom John purchased the bread, it is very tasty and perfect for pregnant women. Two pouches of black ris, a spicy tea Delenn likes to drink before her evening prayer. Three packs of white ardmin, Minbari candles used in meditation. One black iss'hedin, a mid-thigh Minbari undergarment; sexy to be sure, but more tasteful than the lingerie John had purchased for Delenn while they were on Babylon 5. The ones she said would make her feel "silly," if she were to wear them.
John had given each gift considerable thought, wanting to get Delenn something she would not only like but use. However, one gift was more for him than for her.
Delenn opened the pale pink crystal vial, twisting the stopper, and smelling. She smiled. "Water lily and orange blossom," she said, translating the scents into English for him."
"The light floral fragrance reminded me of you, honey. Once I smelled it, I knew I had to buy it for you." And John knew exactly where he wanted to place the perfume. But he was getting ahead of himself. Not too far ahead, but he had one other gift to give her.
"It smells wonderful." Delenn took another deep whiff, enjoying the aroma, before replacing the stopper, and inserting the perfume bottle back into the basket with her other gifts.
John removed the basket from Delenn's lap and set it on the floor.
"I have one other thing I'd like to share with you, but I ask that you keep an open mind."
Delenn looked worried. "You didn't cook me flarn again, did you, John?"
John gave her a self-deprecating smile before taking her in his arms, kissing her lightly. "I've missed kissing you, your aiva on mine."
John situated them both on the bed, removing shoes and clothing first.
"I've also missed your aiva, your lips as well. I see you've been paying attention."
"Oh yes, Delenn, when you speak, I definitely listen, especially when I learn words like kas'zha," John whispered, kissing Delenn again, pressing her naked body into the new, firm mattress."
"Kas'zha," Delenn repeated on a moan. "We haven't done that in three weeks. I think perhaps I've forgotten how."
"Oh, baby, I intend to remind you. As often as I can, for as long as I can."
"Promises, promises," Delenn joked. But her laughter was quickly turned into a hiss of pleasure when John began a slow trek down her body, showing her he missed kissing more than her mouth.
Third base, John thought when he reached Delenn's hairless center. And while John had known the pleasure of giving oral stimulation, he'd discovered there was something so erotic about a woman who never had to shave, body perpetually smooth, with heightened sensitivity to the slightest tickle, kiss, or lick.
John fingered his freshly trimmed beard, figuring he had enough hair for the both of them. He kissed her belly button, darting his tongue around the cute center, waiting for the reaction he knew would follow.
And there it was, a resolute hand in his hair, strong fingers gently massaging, his scalp inordinately sensitive to Delenn's practiced touch. John leaned to the right slightly, fumbling until he found what he was looking for, Delenn's left leg flung over the side of the bed.
John opened the bottle of perfume and dabbed a few drops under each breast, on her wrists, under each knee, and inside both thighs.
"Do you like the way that feels, honey?" John asked. "You smell like a garden, my personal flower in bloom. My rose," he said, kissing her inner thigh, Delenn's only response was a shallow whimper, her left leg going up and over his right shoulder.
John kissed the other thigh, lingering this time, pressing teeth, tongue, and lips into the delicate skin, raising gooseflesh, Delenn's hips instinctively rising.
"You like that?" John asked again, knowing Delenn wouldn't answer, her silence louder than any scream. No, Delenn was a quiet lover, not reserved, just quiet. That is until she climaxes, then her screams could blow the top off any Minbari temple.
John had every intention of making his wife scream, hoarse in fact, preferably with his name scorching both their ears. Three weeks. Yeah, those pin'cha levels would be off the charts once John finished with Delenn. Take that damn toxic hormone, requiring three shots in the ass.
"I wrote a teela for you, Delenn."
That got her attention, though she struggled to rise, reclining on her elbows, looking down her body and at John.
"A poem?"
"Don't look so surprised, honey, I do know a little of poetry."
"Not surprised, John, just honored you would compose a teela for me."
John wondered if she would feel honored after he'd finished the recitation.
"Lay back, honey, and just listen. It's not very long."
Delenn complied, relaxing against the down pillows, and John settled himself comfortably between her legs.
"You once told me all life is precious when I gave you roses for Valentine's Day. Human males typically give flowers, jewelry, or candy to the woman they love on special occasions. You rarely eat sweets, indulge my jewelry giving, and refuse to accept flowers that were plucked only to give the receiver a few days of aromatic pleasure, while denying the flower its life force."
John kissed a particularly sensitive spot on Delenn's calf, smiling when she twitched; curling her toes as he licked upward, stopping only inches from where he knew Delenn wanted him. His wife never shy about giving or receiving.
"Then I realized there was no need to give you roses when you're my personal rose garden, a single bud that will blossom under the right stimuli."
John blew on her, warm breath followed by exploring fingers, navigating the flower, the bud hidden, petals closed, awaiting the sunlight.
"You are my rose, an untouched flower, a delectable pistil, waiting for my pollen, waiting for me. You are my rose, exquisite in form and fragrance, better to taste than allow to sit and go to waste. You are my rose, petals wet with dew, opening to the morning shower, opening to me."
And John made to open his flower, soaking them in his dew. But then Delenn's body began to shake, and it wasn't from a climax.
John leaned up on his elbows and he saw it. And heard it. Dammit, Delenn was laughing. At him. Again.
"What the hell, Delenn?"
"John, I'm s-sorry, but that had to be the worst teela I have ever heard."
John harrumphed, pushing himself up further until he rest completely overtop of his wife.
"That's the thanks I get for pouring my heart out, trying to set the mood, give you pleasure."
"John," Delenn said, squirming with purpose under him, reminding John exactly where his body was in proportion to hers, "you know exactly how to give me pleasure." She tilted her hips up, emphasizing her point, and grazing in to his. "So, let's just add poetry to the same category as cooking—things John Sheridan should leave to the professionals."
Delenn did something else amazing with her hips, and John was lost; poorly written teela and mocking laughter forgotten.
"I believe," John said, taking the tempting offer, claiming fourth base, finally, "that I've planted quite a few seeds this week."
"You want an Easter basket, John?" Delenn asked with a sly, sensual grin, wrapping her legs around his waist, pulling him deeper. "Or maybe you want me to have that giant bunny of yours bring you boiled colored eggs and chocolaty treats. Better yet," she said, trying desperately to keep the moan from her voice, eyes from rolling in her head, John's movements punishingly accurate, hitting that sensitive bud every time his wife taunted him, "we can have a chimney added on to the house and invite Santa Claus and his elves for tea, and you can wear a scary Halloween mask, and—Oh John, right there. Valen, how I've missed this, missed you. Please, John, don't stop"
"Oh, baby, I have no intention of stopping. You feel so damn good, so hot, so tight. And you're all mine, my flower, my spring."
John loved to hear Delenn moan her pleasure, pleased he could give her such joy. And he would continue to do so, in the bed and without, spreading his rays of sunshine, bringing her spring every day until his cold, winter nap took him from her.
But until then, John Sheridan would love Delenn of Mir, and John knew once he passed beyond the Rim, Delenn would forget him not.

Looking for a way to make a report of all the dns entries we have multiple dns entries on our computers and would like a way to generate a report listing all of the different entries.

Are you looking to report what a host entry resolves to or what dns server machines are set for?
Dec 22, 2010 at 10:09 UTC
Payson Solutions Group is an IT service provider.
if you have MS DNS, you can write a quick script that will basically 'dump' your zone files. you can also 'export list' on a zone by zone basis from within the DNS MMC.

what dns server the machines are set for, there are about 5 dns servers, i want to change the wrong ones to the correct ones without going to every single pc.

I copied the template of this from somewhere, I can't remember where. You can create a custom SQL report using the following context. If you copy and paste it the first line with the select statement is a single line, starting at SELECT ending before FROM.
SELECT devices.name as "Device Name", type as "Device Type", domain as "Domain", network_adapters.description as "Adapter Description", network_adapters.ip_address as "IP Address", gateway as "Gateway", net_mask as "Net Mask", network_adapters.mac_address as "MAC Address", dns_servers as "DNS Servers", dhcp_server as "DHCP Server"
FROM network_adapters, devices
WHERE network_adapters.computer_id = devices.id
AND network_adapters.ip_address != "NULL"
AND network_adapters.ip_address != "0.0.0.0"
ORDER BY devices.name ASC

How Can You Be Happy & Successful?
Have you ever wondered where you could find that magical formula for happiness & success?
