I've been well, thank you. My exams are over and I'm on a vacation with a new computer, The Sims 3, and SoulSilver, so yeah. No complaints here. xD Also, since I'm on a vacation, you could also say I have insomnia, because I won't go to sleep before 3AM.
(It's 2:35 AM on the moment...)
My cat destroyed my headset by chewing the wire, so my Skyping abilities are very much impaired on the moment. =( I just need to get Final Fantasy XIII and play XII through now that the PS2 works again... I want to restart FF rants with you ASAP. xD
And write that Yuffincent fic.

Random hi! How have you been?
Hope you are doing well. I'm going to prep some wall-o-texting, you know, since one of my friends just got Soul Silver. Also, I'm hit with insomnia so I should be able to do interesting things during the next days. Like, watching all of Brian de Palma's movies. Just because dad has
caught'em all
got most of them.
Beyond that, I have to go get a new e-mail account and set up Skype. And then, FFL Cabal!

Poking back. I'm all OK.
I live a bit south of the Earthquake Area, but we still got hit hard (and more with the replicas). I'll make the time soon for a wall-o-text. Enough things have changed that it may be interesting to tell.
February 27th, 2010
Just poking here, after today's events. Are you all right? I can't remember if you ever told me where in Chile you live, but damn, I wish you and your friends and family are all right. Poke me back when you have time (seeing as what happened, you might not have any right now, so, yeah). I'd like to know you're fine.
Poke me back!

Yay! new chapter! *squees*
I'll try to do something about it, like, you know, reviewing, during the weekend. I commend you on not letting this interesting work simply go away.
August 27th, 2009
Your persistent wishes have been answered (finally).
Sorry for not being around much, I have some reeeeeally big tests coming up and I pretty much shouldn't do anything else than study right now. However, one of the tests is about English, so this can techincally be thought as studying for it... Right?
Also, we bought Final Fantasy XII and it's awesome. The main character sucks a bit, but the rest of the lot are so great they make it all good.
Anyway, all the best to you and I hope the fulfillment of your wish was adequate for now. I'll be working on it more later, okay?

I hope you're doing well now that you're back, Aurincha.
Let's wall-talk later.
And don't worry, this is not a prompt for you to continue on
Secret People
August 5th, 2009
Yeah, I'm back all right! ^-^ By the way, I was supposed to take a picture of our new ultra-cool FF figurines to, you know, boast a bit and all... I didn't take a picture, but I did put them nicely in my bookcase. Anyway, after setting them up in cool poses and all, I noticed I had placed them in front of the three Chilian books I have (adventure books for adolescents by Isabel Allende). It just somehow stroke me as funny, and I thought I'd tell you.
Uh.... There was no point in this VM, now, was there?
On the bright side, I'm picking back my English skills. Soon enough I'll be writing long sentences again - long enough to make a Wall-o-Text in no time!

I'm alive! I'm alive! I'm a bit sicky on the moment, though, and seeing as I just returned from Japan, one might suspect it's
H1N1 I'm having. Although, if that was the case, I should have even a teensy bit of fever, which I don't really have. Also, my English might be a bit funny now since I haven't had to use it for a month or so. Well, I'll do my best to be understandable.
First of all, Japan was made of awesome and the trip was a serious win. I loved it there, and I'd go back any time. We spent most of our time in Osaka, which was a really cool city with areas ranging from "run-down suburb with mostly homeless people" to "ultra-modern scyscrapers and businesspeople" and from there to "an area specialised in selling electronics, toys, manga, and anime". We also went to Tokyo, which was a tad boring and overly confusing place; Kyoto, which was an even more confusing but ten times as beautiful as Tokyo; Hiroshima, which was actually a really charming city... I just loved the whole damn place. We bought two Final Fantasy figures, Vincent and Squall =D I also found small toys of Rinoa, and *gasp* Rydia and Edge. I've never wasted so much money on stuff in such a short time...
Actually, I don't have very much time to write now, so I'll handle the rest of your last Wall-O-Text later. Okay? Before I go for now, though, I have a question for you, concerning the infamous fic called
Secret People
. You see, I'm having a bit of a problem with the fic, one that won't really show up before the last chapters or so. Do you think I should work it up before I write the fic or just wait and see if it might work itself up and worry about it later? It has to do with, you know, the bad guys of the fic and so on. I don't really know what to do with the stupid problem. It's being all mean to me
Sorry for the short response, I promise to throw you with a Wall-O-Text sometime soon. But hey, at least I'm back now, right..?

Hey, Aurincha, don't worry 'bout Ivysaur. He's
! :lol: -- I actually goto some lengths to stick to my claims, at least in the Poké and Series threads.
You know I definitively shouldn't be doing this. Wall-o-text-es I mean, because my thesis is getting quite complicated, more with me spending time in "less socially acceptable" acts such as writing fanfiction... I even managed to
release a story
that I was working on for a while instead of spending those ~8000 words in something more important like, you know, describing the State of the Art.
Oh and now that you mentiones physics and I mentioned SotA, thanks a lot for the quote on the Planck constant. The quote is great, I'd take it but a) I don't know the original source and b) your Vincent!Love quote is still
too. damn. cool.
to replace. Waveparticles and spatial measurement derivation is one of these things that I understand about physics despite the fact that don't understand several SIMPLER things such as three-dimensional completely-unelastic collision dynamics. Or exponential factor for liquid cooling. Or
angular momentum
. I mean COME ON! Momentum! I'm a weird case. Yes? Of course I am. I mean, who else can enjoy writing a Pokémon fanfiction about a lump with tentacles who sees humans as
tubes with a head
while complaining that the guy who came up with one-strike correction patterns for GTIN-12 encoded sequences projected on neck skin made the producers of
Dark Angel
look like a bunch of six-graders?
Oh, yeah, maybe you... :D
Hey what's the next field we can
talk about? Military-grade water course weaponry?
And yeah, XKCD is too big a thing. Maths, computers, social criticism and the like. It's my most favourite web comic (seconded closely by VGCats). I recall the author making some number of Pokémon references down the way, one of them a small sketch with a lamb thrusting some sort of beam against a cactus... and several people mistook it for a
Besides it is one of my private envys. I mean, I can draw humans as stick figures too (the only way I can draw them), but still... Black-hat man? The truck comic you mentioned is a
(mostly because when I tried with my partners at
Electromagnetism 2
we couldn't solve the problem
Ther'es another comic where he drives a nuclear submarine up through the ice casket in the Arctic to recover his hat from a girl I think. And then
his version of a popular kind of joke
It's good to see that you'll soon live one of your dreams with the Journey to Japan thing. I wanted to ask
in Japan are you leaving to, since well Japan is a big country. Oh and if that means I won't be seeing you for a while that's a shame, as I wanted to ask you if we could be Wall-o-Text cousins or couple or something like that, with all the PC family thing. Actually I wanted to ask you to explain me all that PC family stuff, but then I found a FAQ...
-- By the time you come back I'll try and have a review of
Mama's Boy
's newest chapter. Yes, I noticed. Of course I did.
Don't you think this is a poke for you to advance on
Secret People
, that would be just your wild imagination
About the conference thing, no, I'm more like an "open counselor". I was asked to certify that the public opinions on matters of internet privacy are correctly reflected (or not) in a set of specific web sites and forums. Basically I translate from C++-speak → technobbable → telemarketing → forumspeak → technobabble (again) → ethic. Then the other guy (the Senator) tries to translate to Legalese. Stiill it is a very fun thing to do, and it will only last till September. I am not being payed but still am credited and recommended by my work so it's not much of an issue. Part of the reason why I use a penname to publish my stories is internet privacy (the other part is, fundamentally, that most of the fandoms I move around have a very bad fame where I live, and then there's the legal issue). I've taken time to construct at least five personalities in the Internet, one of which is the actual projection of my
real persona
(with real data and such) which I use for official matters, and the four others vary according the parts of the web where I surf. This particular personality is weak because I use it too much (I spend several hours at a time at the Lounge, mind you...) but is still not a major concern.
What is a major concern, and maybe I didn't tell you this before, was that in the conference
previous to mine
, about six months before, the main expositor, working for our national (C) and (R) agency, made his presentation with pirated copies of Windows and Office and the video of the "You have a pirated copy of Windows" activation dialog was leaked out to national TV (and of course the intertubes). That was
Now, I should really be leaving. You know, if I don't I won't, and that's quite a problem. It may happen to me like what happens to you, that is that the whole text ends up becoming a
, a thing we should Trademark™ or something...
...And, of course. it did. I mean look at what I wrote!
Oh and thanks for throwing the four seasons thing right in my face. Now I am looking at the torrential rain outside. And thinking why can't I live in Canada (which is my "live anywhere" dream).
Best wishes, and expecting to see you soon.
June 24th, 2009
Thanks for the info. I'm kind of wondering what third Pokémon to claim... I haven't played with Ivysaur in so long that I don't want to claim it, nor do I want to reclaim Azelf. Well, well, I guess I'll come up with something.
That aside, I bumped upon the greatest explanation of physics I've ever seen in my entire life. The person was explaining the Planck's constant pretty accurately, and then summarized it with this: "What this means in English is that when you look at spatial matter of the universe in small enough scale, some really funky **** happens." I lol'd... that should be in school books all over the world. I don't really know if you're a physics nerd as well (as I recall, we've only covered math, Final Fantasy, biology and computers this far), but seeing as you adore XKCD I thought you might be and decided to share this win with you.
And, as this is kind of expanding to be a Wall-o-Text(™), I better stop now while it's still easy and I won't need a rehab. See you later, when you have time again! Although, I think I should mention that in eight short days I'll be leaving for Japan and stay there for three weeks... So, if I seem a bit unresponsive after the 3rd of July, you'll know that I'll be in Japan fulfiling a dream I've nurtured for the past nine years. The dream being, quite simply, visiting Japan. Wish me luck, if you can fit it your agenda ^-^ I have a faint memory of telling about this trip before, but I don't remember whether it was you I was talking to or someone else, and it must've been ages ago. Anywho, at least now you know for sure.
Also, now I'm really, really annoyed by the fact that I can't remember which character in which game overused the word "pal". It's super annoying to remember that someone somewhere did it, but to have no idea who it was and where... Argh! I think the game even hade voice acting... Why don't they have any search engines where you could input something like "the character in a game with voice acting who said 'pal' a lot" and get an answer? ;_; *headdesk* Or an enchanced memory chip to put in your brain?
Aaaaaand it became a minor Wall-o-Text(™). Damn!

HHFB's Garden program provides locally grown, fresh fruits and vegetables for free distribution to those in need of emergency food assistance. The more volunteers, the more fresh food we can grow. No gardening experience is necessary. Join us anytime during regular garden volunteer hours: April through October:
- Wednesdays 5:30-7:30 p.m.
To check for weather cancellations or special volunteer events, including teen gardening visit the HHFB Garden & Gleaning calendar.
We also welcome school, church and other community groups. Please schedule groups with Sara Swan at (812) 334-8374 or email@example.com.
History: Our Garden Program was born out of a continuing effort to increase the amount and nutritional quality of food provided to area food pantries and soup kitchens. To meet a rapidly growing need for emergency food assistance we have had to consider new ways to obtain food. Growing our own allows us to bring in varieties of fresh fruits and vegetables rarely donated to the food bank.

Introduction to Krabi
The dazzling province of Krabi is located in Southern Thailand, alongside the pristine oceans of this Andaman Ocean and in an area of outstanding pure beauty. Taking advantage of a glorious tropical climate, it really is a genuine haven for everyone fortunate enough to live there.
Krabi Populace
Krabi's residents are as diverse since the dramatic landscape and include Buddhists, Thai-Chinese and Moken, also called water Gypsies. Muslims also form a sizable proportion of this populace, particularly in rural places where they've been inside majority. It is striking exactly how these colourful communities can practice their particular specific opinions but, still real time alongside in evident equilibrium – a refreshing exemplory case of threshold and shared respect, the remaining portion of the globe could study from!
Traditionally the folks of Krabi were either farmers of this plastic, hand, oil and oranges in the region, or fishermen who made a living through the abundant fish of this Andaman. These days, many are making the farms and fishing villages to make use of the huge development in tourism in Krabi and mainstream life is gradually changing.
Krabi locals are fabled for being down-to-earth, open, friendly and helpful. They've been celebrated with their amazing hospitality and additionally they increase a warm thank you for visiting both tourists and people from other countries who settle forever.
Krabi Expat Community
There's also a flourishing expat community of more than 2000 international nationals interested in the calm way of life, breathtakingly breathtaking environment, reduced criminal activity rate and relatively low priced of living. This combined lot includes people from other countries from Britain, France, Germany, Italy, Spain, Scandinavia, United States, Australian Continent and brand new Zealand.
Expats often group together by nationality or occupation and their particular community is notably laid back, instead like Krabi itself! Formal groups, teams or societies are few in number, even though there are a handful of useful expat online forums that provide up to date info on expat life in Krabi.
While there is perhaps not a lot of benefit people from other countries, numerous expats setup their own business in Krabi and a great number decide to retire or survive exclusive means. Popular small business ventures feature restaurants, hotel and villa accommodation, language schools and residential property agencies. Many jobs are provided by some of the numerous intercontinental resorts, restaurants and taverns many find work as instructors or scuba diving teachers.
There are a number of people who take a threat and work illegally. This isn't suggested, since the discipline for being caught working or in operation without a legitimate work license in Thailand, is normally a massive good or occasionally deportation.
Expat Facilities in Krabi
Services in Krabi are great, which can be another reasons why plenty people from other countries choose this specific part of Thailand. Krabi even boasts an airport with an international terminal, enabling regular routes home and regular visits from friends and family.
Although there are no intercontinental hospitals in Krabi, discover a nearby medical center which can be completely adequate for minor treatments in addition to most of prescription drugs are available through the numerous pharmacies. There's also a private medical center with an excellent reputation, with several exclusive centers in Krabi Town. To get more considerable treatment, the closest intercontinental medical center in Phuket, is a few hours away by vehicle. There are numerous dental practices in Krabi, but most expats often journey to Phuket or Bangkok for significant dental work.
The majority of expats decide to deliver kids toward neighborhood Thai college in Krabi Town, as it provides bi-lingual curriculums. There's also an international college which caters for preschool and primary college students and will teach a British curriculum.
You will find good choice of banks in Krabi, but setting-up a bank account can sometimes prove problematic for people from other countries. Expats must certanly be in control of a non-immigrant visa, such as a-work license or your retirement visa. This may must usually be sustained by various other documents, such as a duplicate of the residential property local rental contract, or a duplicate of this lease if they have chosen purchase a house in Krabi. As an alternative, expats can withdraw funds from their house account at one of the numerous ATMs or utilize the intercontinental cash transfer services for sale in almost all of the banks.
Expats inevitably skip home conveniences occasionally, such as a favourite alcohol or dinner. In Krabi they could satisfy their particular craving for some thing familiar in just one of the many genuine international taverns and restaurants, operate by expats by themselves. Of course they've been finding retail therapy or enjoyment, after that there are exceptional shopping and leisure services, including a multiplex cinema and Tesco Lotus Mall, simply outside of Krabi Town itself.
Learning the Thai Language
Unsurprisingly, one of the greatest hurdles an expat deals with whenever going to Krabi, may be the difficult. Although English is widely talked inside tourists places, most expats try to learn standard vocabulary for them to at the least order food and beverages. There are lots of Thai language classes in Krabi, which are recommended for those that want to remain lasting. Having the ability to talk some standard Thai helps an expat integrate and makes it possible for all of them to accomplish business with, and also make friends aided by the locals. Furthermore an incredible way to understand and turn immersed inside extraordinarily wealthy Thai tradition.
Going abroad can be challenging nevertheless the rewards frequently far surpass any minor inconveniences. If you dream of swapping a hectic, stressful life in a dreary climate, for a calm, outdoor way of life in breathtaking and vibrant place around the globe, after that both the Krabi expat community in addition to locals are waiting to enjoy you with open hands!

In her current condition (cuffed and forced to work as a slave), it is possible that she may not be able to reunite with her comrades on her own. If that happens, the others will surely go to fetch her however they can. Whatever happens, the whole Straw Hat crew will definitely join up in the future.

They say that people are the truest to themselves when the sleep. They say that this is when people drop their guards, and when a person's mind can truly explore.
This place was, Kyouya decided, a very very peculiar castle. If any more oddly casual paintings, or strangely tinted roses, or sweetly tempting smells, or anything else normallynot there made themselves present, he wasn't going to be able to cope; not to mention it was ridiculously crowded and people were pushy-- and if he ever found out who'd just bumped him forward into the wall, that person was going to be very sorry. And it was cold, and he was cold, and his manner and thoughts were numb.
The castle was packed to the brim, mostly young ladies and a few friendly-looking men-- all somehow comfortably functioning in this distinctly defunct building. Or chateau. Whatever.
And it was sunny. How did that work, anyway--
Oh. A glass ceiling. That was fine, too.
But it was terribly, terribly cold.
A voice that was not particularly loud-- but still clearly attention drawing-- came from somewhere, and he raised his head to try and decipher what it was saying. Quiet fell over the assembly for a moment-- activities paused-- no one wanted to miss the announcement.
"We are searching for a missing member-- I repeat, we are looking for our missing member. If you have seen him, please inform him that he is needed. Thank you."
Silence for a moment. Then activities resumed.
Kyouya shrugged. It wasn't particularly important to him-- why would someone looking for a lost member matter to him at all? The voice was awfully familiar, sure, but it didn't bring him any benefit; plus, it would probably have helped if a name and description-- for they did have a purpose-- were provided. Movement and bustle resumed. Kyouya still remained cool and detached.
A small boy, music score sheet clenched in his fist, almost ran straight into Kyouya. The kid looked up and scowled; a bandage was seen clearly on his cheek-- perhaps a sign of being delinquent?
"Sorry," he muttered sullenly, "-but I have someone to find before it's too late…before it's too late, before she leaves."
Kyouya only watched as the oddly familiar elementary student disappeared back into the crowd. How did he know this kid, and that piano music...?
Whatever. He didn't care. He never really did care about people much, other than for whatever benefit they would bring him…
Remembering people wasn't really going to help him in this place.
He paused at this thought. Help him with what, exactly?
Whatever. He felt cold, and that was enough to focus on for now.
Looking about, he was able to find what looked like a garden in the midst of the citadel; there were roses, plenty of roses. But nothing more.
Kyouya frowned a bit at this, and moved closer for another look; perhaps this peculiarity could aid in figuring out where the hell he was. On the way, he was bumped by some bespectacled girl with a rather austere sort of air about her-- straight locks that appeared to have been naturally wavy blew a little in some not-possible breeze. He didn't pay much attention to her-- and why did he sudden have the thought, "third in class and smitten with--" with…who? He couldn't remember, and the title he had initially associated with her faded quickly from mind. It wasn't long before he couldn't recall having the thought at all.
He realized he had stopped, and wondered why he paused in the first place. Continuing, he spotted a red haired man easily-- people apparently thought him terrifying, as they gave him a wide girth-- and Kyouya could see why, for the expression on this man's face looked to be trained for intimidation. The man was feeding something behind a rosebush, but Kyouya decided not to pay him any mind, though he had a niggling feeling that this man was somehow a friend of a friend…
Wait. Friend?
Kyouya suddenly wondered how that was possible. Acquaintances, should have been the thought. Never friends. An Ootori never madefriends; they made partners and associates.
He shook his head, and wandered more. He decided that there were simply too many people here; too many people to be able to devote so much energy to observing. There was a couple over by the far wall, looking over Ginori teacups and shyly smiling at each other. There was a little girl tugging on the hem of a darkly robed man, who was holding a silly looking cat puppet. There was a malicious-looking girl being forcibly removed from the area, kicking and screaming and-- ugh, what unsightly behavior. There were even a group of three girls acting out a play on a far-set stage; the castle's regulars seemed to ignore them, but the group had its own share of fans causing a racket.
Kyouya continued to wander, finally noticing that many people were watching him and giggling and whispering as though they thought he could not hear them.
"Tell him!" one would say.
"No, you tell him!" the other would whisper in response.
Kyouya frowned, wondering what on earth-- was this even Earth?-- was happening, and why he was the center of attention so suddenly.
Turning around as gracefully as possible, he decided to rest for a bit.
There was a bench. An uncomfortable looking bench.
…An uncomfortable looking bench that he wasn't, apparently, allowed to use. For just as he was turning to sit, a booming voice that only he seemed to hear came from nowhere, and stated,
Kyouya frowned. "And why not?" he testily inquired, raising an eyebrow. Who-- or what-- was he talking to?
Kyouya looked. No one was there. "By whom?"
"I meant someone real."
Kyouya repressed an angry look, because there was no one to look at: the voice had no speaker. He instead directed his glare to the spotless, uncomfortable looking bench, and decided it was a losing battle that didn't make much sense. Nothing seemed to make much sense here, anyway-- and where exactly was here!?
Even as he asked himself, he was aware of the strangeness of his words. Of course he knew where he was, but…where was he again?
He shivered. It was really cold, even though the conversation with the bench distracted him for a moment.
The intangible P.A. system rang again. That first voice, the one that was not-yet-loud-but-still-very-clear, cut through activities as the people again dropped everything to listen.
"We are still searching for our missing member. I repeat, we are still looking for our missing member. If you see Ootori Kyouya, please alert him that he is needed quickly. Thank you."
Kyouya blinked. Was that his name just called? What was he required for? He couldn't remember making any such agreements or deals or commitments…
The commanding, all-knowing air he'd spent all his life perfecting held up, but he furiously thought and wondered andquestioned himself inwardly.
That was when the large, ornate, suddenly appearing doors to his left opened, revealing dramatic silhouettes of six figures. He peered through his glasses at the group-- one tall, one short, two of equal height, one of average height and one a head shorter-- as they became more and more visible through the fog and rose petals.
He looked at those people-- and how silly of him to refer to them asthose people when he knew perfectly well who they were!-- and was finally, finally, aware of where he was. These people-- no, his friends-- were there, reaching out to him and telling him how terribly missed he was and--
Kyouya glanced back at the citadel he had been wandering around, and let his eyes slide over all those familiar, familiar faces as he took in how exactly he knew each one. He knew them. He knew this castle too, with all its charm and friendliness and atmosphere.
This was nothing more than an interesting dream, but this--
-this was-
-this was the Host Club.
Kyouya woke to six faces surrounding his bed, and hid a smile; an outward scowl was important, for he did have appearances to maintain. He looked at each of them, reveling in how warm he felt now; he mused a bit on how much he felt as though he cared, as though he believed in intangible benefits--
This was the waking world, and these were--
-they were-

Sorry if it seems out of character, but I tried to do a "what if" for Kyouya softening up enough to actually have a dream like that. xD


text: The most consumer call activity regarding tax preparation services happens during early January, not April, according to a Marchex Institute analysis of more than 40,000 calls to a sample of tax preparation service providers. This means tax preparers need to optimize their online advertising campaigns and get them running strong earlier in the year to fully benefit from the potential to close new sales. This year's peak window for calls occurred during the week of January 9 th, with 25% of the phone calls occurring between the hours of 10 a.m. and 2 p.m. Eastern Standard Time. The average length of these phone calls was 6 minutes and 30 seconds. "As we analyzed the data from our tax preparation clients, a surprising realization presented itself," said Rafael Jose, Vice President, Marchex Call Analytics. "Tax preparation inquiries spike dramatically in early January and reduce steadily until early April. This counter-intuitive behavior presents a fantastic revenue opportunity for advertisers that prepare and optimize their campaigns for early-bird tax filers." Based on this Marchex Call Analytics data, advertisers in the tax preparation service industry should consider: 1. Optimizing next year's advertising campaigns accordingly for this earlier opportunity 2. Beyond preparing for a surge in calls/traffic during April, reallocate yearly budget and prepare for the same occurrences during January 3. Call advertisers can help convert January leads by tailoring the content of their Integrated Voice Response (IVR) systems to match the needs of early bird tax filers About The Marchex Institute The Marchex Institute is a team of senior analysts and scientists dedicated to improving the digital call advertising industry, and to publishing research and reports based on more than one billion minutes of anonymous call data. About Marchex Marchex, Inc.

As some of you may or may not know recently the Korean Rating system has recently leaked some details of a new Halo game entitled Halo: Bootcamp, a third-person shooter developed by Microsoft fot the pc. All Microsoft has said about it is that they are excited about it and that it is not related to The Reclaimer saga or the Xbox One.
Now the third person shooter and PC could possibly mistranslated or PC could of been a stand in for the yet announced Xbox One. But anyways here are some theories.
- Halo: Bootcamp is a prequel covering the events in Halo: The Fall of Reach which comic book adaption was entitled Halo: Fall of Reach Bootcamp,. If this is true the reason why its a third person shooter could be to make it a more cinematic experience.
- So Third Person shooter for the PC to me that sounds like the cancelled Halo MMO, while it could be along those lines if it is exclusive to the PC that present a major distrust of the One's ability to play MMOs by Microsoft.
- Besides these ideas it could just be a port of one of the previous games to the PC and given a fancy new name.
These are just some of my theories so what do you guys think it maybe?

A Redemption of Bones(2014)
A Novella by Reed Farrel Coleman
When Mr. Rock, a professional assassin, is diagnosed with a rare disease that slowly turns his flesh to bone, he's forced into early retirement. Before he hangs it up, he takes on one last hit. But his stiffened trigger finger causes him to botch the job, landing him in the sadistic hands of his intended victim - the head doctor at the Cosgrove Extended Care Facility. Here the patients aren't kept alive so much as they're kept undead. For years on end, Mr. Rock is held at the facility, a prisoner in his own body, tortured, and forced to witness the abuse of other patients. But Mr. Rock has one more secret in his bag of assassin's tricks as he plans his final act: revenge.

The woman screamed and kept on screaming. The pain stopped and she sucked in breath. She looked up at the ninja who was kneeling over her broken body. The ninja was completely covered in black. A simple mask covered the ninja's face except for a pair of pupil less lavender eyes. "Please kill me." She whimpered.
Two fingers immediately stabbed down into her shoulder and fresh pain tore into her and she started screaming again. The ninja patiently counted to thirty and then pulled the fingers back. When the screams stopped she spoke to her in a soft and polite voice. "The pain ends when you tell me what I want to know. If you give me the information I need I promise I will make it quick and clean."
"All right," the woman whispered. "He is in grass country at…" Two fingers came down again, into her hip this time. Again she felt herself screaming. She was crying because she knew she was at the end of her endurance.
The ninja reached thirty and pulled her fingers back temporarily ending the torment. "I've told you before not to lie. You know I have to give you credit Karen; I can usually break people within ten minutes. But here you are coming up on two hours." She looked around at the empty laboratory. It was a mess. Not ten feet away were two bodies. "I mean usually when people hold out it's because they have some sort of hope. But that's not the case with you now is it? I mean your arms and legs are broken. All the guards and assistants are dead. There is no one who is going to come and rescue you. You're all alone now." The woman began crying harder. Hinata thanked Ibiki for his many lessons in psychological torture techniques as well as thanking Tsunade's on human anatomy. "Why are you fighting so hard when we both know how this is going to end? You've lasted two hours but I have all night, all week, all month if I need it."
"I can't tell you."
"Why not? The sooner you tell the sooner I end your pain."
"If I tell you you're going to kill him."
"That's true Karen-chan but why should that bother you? You'll be long gone by then. And given your experiments I doubt you could have any sort of moral concerns." She chuckled. "Besides where your soul is going I'm sure you'll be seeing him again real soon."
"I can't, just please kill me." She stabbed two fingers into her and began counting.
When she released she asked again, mildly curious to hear what the sadistic doctor would have to say. "So why can't you say?"
"Because I love him," she whispered.
Hinata felt her fists clench and had to restrain her self from breaking the woman's jaw. Instead Hinata took out a kunai and slammed it clear through her left shoulder blade. She began speaking even as the woman cried out. "Don't you dare use that word again or I'll hack off your arms and legs while you watch. Love? You don't know what that word means. I know what it really is to love someone more than your own life. Don't you dare compare your pathetic infatuation with what I feel. You don't love him and he sure as hell doesn't love you. All you have is some pathetic attraction that you've deluded yourself into thinking is love, but it's not. Comparing your feelings to mine is a joke; it's like comparing the fire of a candle to that of the sun."
Karen looked up through her tears. "You are Hyuga Hinata aren't you?" Hinata nodded. "The person you're talking about is Nar…"
"Say his name and I will hack off your right arm."
Karen gulped. "He told me about you, he said you were one of the kindest and gentlest people he had ever known."
"That's true I suppose, but that was a long time ago. I mean he was once a trusted and admired shinobi of the leaf. Things change."
Karen looked tired and broken. "You'll never stop will you?"
Karen let out a long sigh. "He is in fire country in an old run down temple outside Gakurra."
"That's only about twenty miles from Konoha!" Hinata could hardly believe it but her Byakugan confirmed that it was the truth. "Thank you Karen-chan, I promise you will feel no more pain."
"May I have a last request?" Hinata nodded. "Will you tell Sasuke I am sorry?"
"I will." Karen nodded her gratitude and shut her eyes. Hinata reached over and in one motion snapped her neck.
Outside the lab entrance she signaled the all clear and the other three members of her team appeared.
"Burn it down." She handed one of them a sealed note written in code. "When you're done return and report to the Hokage. I have to take care of something."
"Captain you're not…"
She shook her head. "I will meet back up with you at ANBU headquarters later." She took off without another word. Given her reputation no one was going to question her.
At a small stream not more than a couple miles away she was refilling her canteen. The moment she had found out the location she had decided. She took a soldier pill to give herself a maximum amount of energy and stamina. She could reach Gakurra in 12 hours. If something went wrong the Hokage would have the information and would send out multiple teams to finish the job.
With her mask off she looked at her reflection in the stream. She was only 22, but a stranger would guess she was far older. She had never been considered a great beauty but she had often been referred to as pretty or cute. Well those times were long gone. Her face had several scars on it; including a large ugly burn on most of her right cheek and one that ran clear across her jaw from her right ear to the tip of her chin. If she had removed her ninja armor and clothing she would have seen other scars all over her arms, legs, and body. When she walked around town without a mask on children would sometimes cry and people would look the other way. No man would ever ask her out, but since the only one she had ever wanted was gone it didn't bother her any. She was proud of her scars and of everything else she had suffered in the past 6 years. She considered them nothing more than the price paid to become ultimate weapon of the ANBU black ops. She had driven herself mercilessly to gain power and had. She had mastered a dozen different weapons, four different fighting styles, over a hundred jutsus, and had developed her chakra to the point where it was almost as large as Tsunade's. She had become the greatest assassin ANBU had ever seen surpassing even Kakashi's records. And she had spent the last two and a half years on an S-rank mission given to her by the Hokage in secret.
That mission of course had been to track down and kill Uchiha Sasuke. No one outside her team knew, not even the Council. Tsunade had feared that if they found out they would interfere. In that time Hinata had not spent more than a month in Konoha. She had chased down every last lead, no matter how slim. She had killed his agents, destroyed his bases, crippled his organization, but somehow he always stayed one step ahead of her. And now her time was running out; Godaime Hokage was dying of liver failure. She had perhaps a month left. The woman who had loved Naruto as a son wanted justice done as badly as Hinata did. She was grimly holding on to life and her position as Hokage in order to give Hinata one last chance. No one knew who would be the next Hokage, but it seemed likely her orders would be changed.
Hinata thought what it would be like to lose Tsunade. She was one of the few people she was still close to. One by one she had lost touch with her friends; Kurenai, Kiba, Shino, Shikamaru, Sakura and others as she could not find time for any of them. One of the great ironies of her life was that her father had finally seen value in her just as she had turned her back on him and her clan. Hanabi, Neji, and even Hiashi could not hold their own against her. Hiashi had offered to make her the heir and step down, only to have her decline and tell him she wanted nothing to do with him. It was odd but she thought she might have actually hurt him with her refusal. Not that she cared. She was somewhat close to her current teammates, but not in the same way she had been with team 8. Their work was too hard and she had to push too hard for them to get really friendly. The only other people she was close to were Neji, Tenten, and their son Hizashi. Whenever she was in Konoha he insisted they all spend time together, even if it was just for an hour as she got ready to leave on another mission. That was another of the ironies in her life that it was Neji who wanted them to be close and she was the one who kept people at a distance.
Well actually there was one other person she was still close to. She reached into her uniform and pulled out her most cherished possession. It was just a simple photograph that Kakashi had taken on a mission six long years ago. She looked at it and felt the pain and the longing come back in a rush. It was the only picture she had of her and the one she loved. There was a 16 year old Naruto with a huge grin on his face full of life and fun, one hand held out in a 'V' the other wrapped around the shoulder of a blushing girl who looked about ready to faint. Sometimes when she was alone at night she would look at the photo and pretend it was a picture of them on a date. She would let herself imagine that they had gotten together. Sometimes when she dreamed it was of their wedding day. She dreamed of a small house in Konoha somewhere filled with the laughter of children playing with their parents. She dreamed of him standing before all of Konoha and proclaiming himself Rockudaime Hokage and swearing to protect and guide all of them. And some mornings when she woke up the dreams would seem real to her. She would be truly happy, expecting to find him asleep next to her. But then she would remember. Tears came to her eyes. It amazed her that a killer like her could even have a heart. She could torture someone for hours on end without blinking, but the sight of an old photo would break her and leave her a sobbing mess. Wasn't time supposed to heal all wounds? Why did it still hurt like this? "Naruto." She cried out his name and fell to her knees in sorrow.
He was on his knees, his palms pressed together in prayer, eyes closed and mouth silently speaking the words his mother had taught him a lifetime ago. May I be forgiven my sins. He ended the prayer and opened his eyes. On the dusty altar before him were two candles and a picture frame bearing his clan symbol. Everything was silent. He waited patiently.
"Welcome Hinata." Only then did he hear her footsteps. She was about twenty feet directly behind him. He did not turn around or try to get up.
"Hello Sasuke. It's been awhile huh?"
"Yeah, six years, I presume the rest of your team is outside."
"No, I came alone."
Now he did turn around to look. She was in her normal black uniform except that her mask was gone. Her pose seemed to be relaxed. One hand was resting on the hilt of her katana the other on her hip. "This is personal isn't it?"
"Yeah, before we get started Karen asked me to tell you she was sorry."
He nodded. "Thank you, it's good to know she was loyal to me."
"Yes I suppose that would be a rare commodity for a missing nin, even one as powerful as you. If you don't mind me asking what god were you praying to?"
"I was praying to my ancestors."
She nodded, "Well I'll grant you that at least makes sense. I suppose they have no choice but to listen to the prayers of the last Uchiha. You are the last Uchiha?"
He slowly nodded. "I killed Itachi two months ago."
She tilted her head and looked at him. "Was it worth it?"
He considered that, he'd been asking himself the same question for two months. "I don't know. Right after I killed him I felt happy, like everything I'd done had been vindicated. All the sacrifices were worth it because I'd finally avenged my family. But then later I just felt empty. I wasn't an avenger anymore so what did I have?" They were both silent for a moment. "How is Sakura?"
"Pinky? We kind of lost touch. I hear she's fine though, Tenten and her are close. She has been married to Lee for two years now and I hear she is expecting in a couple months."
Sasuke closed his eyes. "I always hoped I would get to see her again. I wanted to thank her for not giving up on me."
"But she did." Sasuke opened his eyes. "After you killed… Naruto she stopped talking about you. If she still feels anything for you Sasuke she keeps it to herself."
"That's probably for the best, considering. I guess a part of me was hoping she would help me restore my clan."
Hinata laughed out loud. "Oh that's a good one; the heartless avenger who kills his best friend wants to be a dad." Sasuke scowled at her and slowly rose to his feet to face her. "Your heartbeats rising, did I hurt your pride? I'm sorry Sasuke-kun, but if you wanted to restore your clan you should have stayed in Konoha, married Sakura, and had babies."
"I know this makes no difference Hinata, but if it's worth anything I am sorry. I truly regret the things I had to do."
"You still don't get it do you? You didn't have to do any of it. You made the choice to become an avenger. You chose to leave Konoha and abandon your friends. You chose to kill anyone who got between you and Itachi. You told Sakura the day you left that new paths would open. You knew what you were doing curse mark or no curse mark. You don't get to take it all back with an, 'I'm sorry,' now."
"What about you Hinata? You've killed more people than I have. You're an avenger as well."
She smiled. "I know, the difference is I don't pretend it was forced on me. I chose this, and I knew what it would cost."
He shook his head. "No, you don't, you won't know that until it's done." He took a deep breath. "After I killed Itachi I realized something, I finally understood why he let me live."
"You were just a kid."
He looked at her coldly. "There were other children in the Uchiha compound, babies too. I think Itachi went mad, but a part of him was sane enough to understand he couldn't live with his guilt. He wanted someone there to make sure he wouldn't have to." Hinata said nothing. He waited a moment. Then he shrugged and activated his curse seal to its second level. As he did so she calmly drew out her katana and dropped into a fighting stance. "I will say this one final time, I am sorry Hinata."
"So am I." Her breathing was calm and she felt her blood pounding in her ears. She was ready; everything she had done for six years had led to this day. She dipped her sword. "Your blood on my blade," she whispered.
"Take it if you can." His hands flashed together as he took a deep breath and used his wings to fly up into the vaulted ceiling about 30 feet above her. Grand fireball Jutsu, he spat out three huge boulders of flame. She bolted forward towards him.
Their fight was vicious and by the end of it they were both nearly empty of chakra. He had tried to strike her down with his Black Chidori, but she was too fast for him. Naruto had told her once how Sasuke had nearly died in Wave country fighting Haku. Throughout their fight she had riddled him with hundreds of senbon needles, slowly paralyzing him. She had cut him with her katana several times, as the needles slowed him down she had gotten deeper cuts. And for all of Sasuke's ability and power he could not reach her or break through her ultimate defense.
In the end he lay broken on the temple floor, no longer able to even sit up, over a hundred needles sticking out of him. He had reverted form his curse seal back into human form. She saw he had the Mangekyo Sharingan activated but that was useless as long as she had herByakugan.
"Oh Sasuke," she shook her head. "You should know from our academy days that while your eyes could stop every other girl they never did anything for me." She was calmly standing over him with her bloodied katana.
He actually smirked. "Your eyes always made you my perfect enemy. That's why I always avoided fighting you. That and I didn't want to kill another of my friends."
"We haven't been friends for a very long time Sasuke."
He deactivated his sharingan. "I know," he said sadly.
She looked down at him. The man she had hated and pursued for six long years. She couldn't believe it but she actually felt a tiny spark of sorrow for him. "This temple," she said. "It's less than twenty miles from here to the Hokage tower. You had no guards, no traps, and no defenses at all. And you were in a room with only one entrance. You were done running weren't you?"
He nodded, and seemed to be strangely at peace now that all the fighting was finally over. "With Itachi dead there's nothing for me now. Even the idea of restoring my clan is impossible, my enemies will never stop."
She looked down at his broken body and felt only sadness. So much blood so much death, for what? "Sasuke, if it means anything to you I am sorry, and I… forgive you."
He actually smiled up at her. "Thank you Hinata, that does mean something to me. You granted Karen a last request. May I also have one?"
"Of course."
"Upstairs you will find the room I was staying in. There is a letter by my bed, it's addressed to Sakura. Would you see that she gets it?"
"I will."
"There is one last thing Hinata. You asked me if it was worth it. It wasn't, I think you'll realize that soon." He shut his eyes. "Please end it now."
She lifted up her sword. "Good-bye Sasuke." Her sword fell and the last Uchiha was gone.
One month later
It was two in the morning and she was staring up into the face of her beloved Naruto-kun. She had always thought it fitting that the statue showed him smiling at all the world. Some idiots claimed it was undignified, but they had never known him. She knew he would want them all to see him with a smile. She looked up into his face and let the pain wash over her. She gave into it and welcomed the tears. Sasuke had been right, it wasn't worth it. And deep down in her heart of hearts she knew Naruto would never have wanted this for her. She had changed completely from the girl he had known, and there was no going back. She had come here now because she had decided there was no going forward either.
Tsunade had died two days after Sasuke. She had held on to see the son of her heart avenged. With that done she had given up. No one was sure who the next Hokage would be, not that it mattered. With Tsunade gone one more connection to the world was lost. She had delivered the letter to Sakura just as she had promised. Sakura had read it and immediately become inconsolable. She had cried for days, with no one able to comfort her, not even her husband or her best friend Ino.
As always Neji had tried his best to help her; he had even offered to let her move in with them so she would be alone less. She had appreciated her cousin's kindness deeply, but had declined. She had changed too much to pretend she belonged anywhere. And she cared too much for Neji, Tenten, and their son to depress them with own pain. There were still missions of course, there were always bad guys to kill, and she was still the best of killers. She was healthy and young and might well have another forty or fifty years of life. Forty years, it sounded like a prison sentence to her. She looked up into his smiling face.
"Hello Naruto-kun, you probably already know why I've come here. I'm sure you're disappointed in me. Just like always I end up taking the easy way out. But you see you were always the one who gave me courage. I always wished I could be as brave as you were. But without you I can't find the courage. Please forgive me my sweet Naruto-kun if I have let you down one more time. And know whatever happens to me my love is yours now and forever."
She pulled out her wakizashi and placed the tip below her rib cage. She whispered a silent prayer to Kami or to whoever was listening and asked for only one thing. That if a monster like her could be forgiven that she be allowed to see him just one last time. Then with all her might she drove her blade up and in.
The pain was gone and there was only light, she heard his voice. Hinata I love you! I am waiting come and be with me! She was happy and went into the light unafraid.

Vapor World only produces safe E-Liquid which provides a pure, clean, flavorful product. When you buy from us, our staff can teach you everything you need to know about selling E-Liquid.
Most of our flavors are made at 20 percent flavoring mix rate, and at a pure 50/50 blend and the results are amazing!
All of our e-liquid only has 4 ingredients.
- Nicotine: The stimulant in cigarettes and the substance that is addictive in cigarettes is the nicotine. In our e-liquid we offer nicotine in strengths of 6mg/ml up to 24mg/ml provided by NicSelect (FDA Inspected)
- Flavouring: There are an infinite number of flavours that can be used and at Vapor World we believe we stock not only some of the finest tasting and highest quality e-liquid flavorings with one of the widest and most exciting ranges available.
- Propylene Glycol (PG): Our Propylene Glycol is high quality pharmaceutical grade. Propylene Glycol dilutes the mixture to the correct viscosity and helps to produce the 'throat hit' in combination with nicotine and flavors.
- Vegetable Glycerine (VG): In its raw state this is a thick viscous liquid. Glycerine helps to produce greater vapor and adds a little sweetness to the mixture.
Please note the black bottles are not included. Fuji Apple is acutally a Fuji Apple Pear flavor.

Gucci Juice, Love it!
Posted by Rodney A Day on 15th Mar 2017
Gucci Juice is by far my "go to" ejuice. I vape others from other companies but I always have one tank dedicated to Gucci juice. Has it's own unique flavor that is not over powering. Just waiting for Fedex to deliver my 32oz bottle!
All time best

great flavor.... nice and smooth...
Posted by Joel on 24th Oct 2016
Awesome smell and taste, just like cotton candy. Everyone is always asking about it when they smell it. My only complaint is not even about the juice. I wanted this in the 85/15 not the 50/50 blend but it goes to only 6mg nicotine not 24mg and it isn't available.
Good Juice
Posted by Tom on 6th Sep 2016
Good flavor, really like the spout you get with the bottle. Wish it came in 3mg. Overall good service,prompt shipping, would and have recommended.

This is my second time ordering. It was simple and fast. Easy Web page to navigate. The menthol flavor is excellent and smooth

Menthol flavor
Posted by Barbara L on 19th May 2016
Just received my order and the menthol is much better then what I buy locally. Just wish the 32 oz bottle had a nozzle on it cause it's hard to pour and not waste any
ToffeeTastic just ok
Posted by CAT on 19th Apr 2016
Quick delivery, great 32 oz container with supplied spout lid for adding directly to tank. But the ToffeeTastic flavor tastes more like rum than toffee. Not buttery or sweet enough.
Wish it was sold in 3mg so that I wouldn't have to buy 0 and 6 to mix.
Great Juice Great Price

Good Juice great price but could still be better
Posted by Chris on 2nd Dec 2015
Good flavor, great price, fast shipping, but could be better. An option for a 70/30 vg/pg ratio seems to be preferred but most of the vapers i know. The 50/50 gives a bit more throat hit than I prefer. Also making 3mg/ml an option would also be a vast improvement over needing to buy a omg and a 6mg bottle and mix them.
Bad A$$ strawberry
Posted by CHESTER CHEETO on 6th Nov 2015
Hands down, the best strawberry ejuice on the market. I like it because it has a candy strawberry taste. Also the best priced on the market. Thanks, to my brothers from other mothers at VAPOR WORLD. They are my go to ejuice company.

Very good juice, smooth and lots of flavor.
Better than expected!
Posted by Shiv.- on 6th Jun 2015
When it comes to bulk liquid, especially at a price like this ... I thought it seemed kind of sketchy. I was, honestly, very surprised! The flavor was great, the buzz was greater, and the mix was smooth (as it should have been). Shared a lot of it with friends and have enough for months to come. For people that vape for hours and every-day this would easily last a few solid months and the quality is amazing. This is the real deal.
Great product

Can't beat the price and flavor
Posted by ShawnaJH on 16th Feb 2015
Purchased 555 great taste.
Tired of all the sweet stuff, this satisfies the urge to smoke and tastes better than the burnt butts.
The size and price is just a plus.
Bottle is very easy and clean to use, I just refill my small bottles and go. Very happy with the e-juices from vapor world but 555 is my fav.
Great Product
Posted by owlmanjones on 10th Feb 2015
Great 50/50 Blend with a smooth taste. Awesome Price! Would buy ejuice again from Vaporworld. Will Definately taste better in a week Of steeping.
A great big bottle of juice with no mess
Posted by David on 3rd Feb 2015
I sort of thought they would send me a whole bunch of small bottles when I had to go to wholesale but instead I was surprised to see a giant bottle of the stuff.
I was also impressed that it was a quality jug with a good nozzle so that I can use it to fill my tanks without having to transfer the liquid into any other form of dispensary.
It's huge, it's quality, it's worth it.
vanilla rich tobacco is great!
Posted by Unknown on 16th Jan 2015
Love the taste and the price! 50 dollars for a quart of great experience juice and the flavor can't be beat.
Amazing price and quality... little more flavor?
Posted by Unknown on 28th Dec 2014
This was an awesome find for me. I have been spending 20$ a bottle for juice lately and these were 30 ml bottles. I just paid 50$ for a 32oz. Bottle!!!! The ONLY problem i have with this juice is the lack of flavor. It is not a very flavorful vape.
High Quality E-Juice
Posted by Eytan on 10th Dec 2014
I have bought a lot of E-Juice from a variety of sources. A lot of places have fancy bottling and other gimmics. Vaporworld has very high quality E-Juice, packaged in a very professional manner, and includes a few little extras that made the whole experience really worthwhile. Their pricing is as good as it gets when you buy in bulk. I have nothing but praise for them and their E-Juice. I've bought other products from them as well, and each time it has been a very positive and worthwhile experience.

New Tennessee Law Allows Rescuers To Break Car Windows
July 10, 2014
According to the web site kidsandcars.org sixteen children have died from heatstroke after being left alone in hot cars in 2014. Under a new law passed by the Tennessee legislature, anyone who has a good faith belief that their actions will save a child left alone in a hot car, won't be held liable for smashing a window to rescue the child.

Ask the Traffic School Instructor: Seat Belt Entrapment
July 8, 2014
Question: I know that you are supposed to wear a seat belt but I'm afraid of being trapped in my car if it should catch fire or go into the water. Are my fears real?
Answer: First off, I would never say anyone's fears aren't real. They are your fears so they are valid to you. Instead, let's take a look at the reality of being trapped by a seat belt.
According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the type of crash you are imagining happens in less than one-half of one percent of all crashes. If we could plan our driving habits based on the type of crash we were going to have, then we could probably, just as easily, plan not to have a crash to begin with. But, for the sake of discussion, let's assume you were one of the one-half of one percent involved in a crash into water or one that caused your vehicle to catch fire. What could happen to you if you weren't wearing a seat belt?
Whether you crash into another vehicle or into water, your unbelted body will have no choice but to obey the laws of physics and continue traveling at whatever speed the car was traveling before the crash. That means your body will smash into the steering wheel at say 35 or 45 mph. Even in a relatively low speed crash at 25 mph, a small woman weighing 115 pounds will strike the steering wheel with a force of 2,404 lbs. If your car tumbles or spins out, your unbelted body will be thrown around inside the vehicle and you'll probably have multiple impact points before coming to rest. Even if you're still conscious after going through that sort of trauma, you probably won't be in any shape to escape the vehicle.
No matter what type of crash or how violent it may be, you're always better off securely fastened in place until the vehicle comes to a stop. By remaining fastened in, your chances of remaining conscious and healthy enough to effect an escape from the vehicle are tremendously increased.
As far as being trapped by the seat belt itself, mechanically, there's nothing simpler than a seat belt latch. There is just one simple button to push and the probability of such a simple mechanism failing is astronomically small.
May I suggest, instead of fearing the consequences of wearing a seat belt, that you turn that around into a fear of the consequences of not wearing a seat belt.
Innovative Road Signs Slow Drivers
July 3, 2014
Drivers tend to ignore warning signs posted by the road so new, trickier methods are called for. By using forced perspective paintings of children in the street, life-size cardboard cutout policemen, and stripes painted across the road that make drivers think they are going faster than they really are, traffic safety experts around the world are becoming more creative in their methods to warn drivers to slow down.

Fourth Of July Deadly For Drivers
July 2, 2014
According to the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) the Fourth of July is the deadliest day of the year for American drivers. Looking at data from 1986 through 2002, the IIHS determined that an average of 161 people die each year on the 4th. That's 12 more deaths than average on any other single day of the year. Read more: More crash deaths occur on 4th of July than any other day
Florida Law Requiring Booster Seats For Children Under 5 Inadequate!
June 30, 2014
On June 24, 2014, Florida's governor, Rick Scott signed HB 225 into law requiring that all children under the age of 5 are required to be placed in a federally approved car safety seat or booster seat. While the law is better than the old law that allowed children over the age of four to graduate to seat belts, it still doesn't go far enough.
To look at why the legislation isn't enough we have to look at how seat belts work to restrain a body in a crash. If properly worn, low over the hips, a seat belt works in a crash by pushing against the hip bones. The shoulder harness works by pushing against the breast bone and shoulder bone. If the lap belt is worn too high, over the abdomen instead of low on the hips, it can cut through the soft tissue of the abdomen in a violent crash. The problem with children is that their frames are too small and narrow for the lap belt to remain low over the hips and they often ride up over the abdomen, leading to injuries in a crash.
A seat belt is better than nothing at all because the alternative in a crash would be for the child's body to fly forward and crash into the front seat or impact multiple points within the vehicle. In violent crashes, the child's body can be thrown out of the vehicle and strike the road surface so seat belts are always preferable to no protection at all.
The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) has looked at crash data and recommends that children, once they have graduated out of a child protective seat, graduate to booster seats and remain in those booster seats until they are at least 4'9" tall. For the average child, that is anywhere from 9 to 11 years of age. The booster seat works by raising the body so that the seat belt rides low over the hips, providing maximum protection in a crash. Many states have adopted the IIHS recommendations and mandated booster seats for children until they are at least 4'9" or 9 years of age.
Regardless of what the Florida law may say, parents should maximize protection for their children and keep them in booster seats until they reach the 4'9" height. For more information on child protective seats and choosing the right seat for your child, visit the IIHS website at: http://www.iihs.org/iihs/topics/t/child-safety/topicoverview

Percent of Change of Pro Hockey Players Salaries Since 1990 to 2014?
1990 most money made= 3,000,000$
2014 most money made= 14,000,000$
How the amount of money professional Ice hockey players has changed from 1990?
In 1990 Wayne Gretzky made the most money at $3,000,000$. In 2014 Shea Weber is making the most money at 14,000,000$. What is the percent of change?
11,000,000/3,000,000*100= 367% increase
Amount of money that will be made in 2038 14,000,000$*3.67= 51,380,000$ in the year 2038
This 367% increase is a dramatic change over the years. From 3,000,000$ to 14,000,000$ is a lot more money. This shows me that the interest in sports has changed over the years. Clearly in 1990 there wasn't as much interest in ice hockey as there is today.
