G.Skill Phoenix Pro 120GB High 4K IOPS Solid State Drive
Passmark Advanced Multi-User Tests
Version and / or Patch Used: 6.1
Developer Homepage: http://www. passmark.com
Test Homepage: http://www.passmark.com
Many users complain that I/O Meter is too complicated of a benchmark to replicate results so my quest to find an alternative was started. Passmark has added several multi-user tests that measure a hard drives ability to operate in a multi-user environment.
The tests use different settings to mimic basic multi-user operations as they would play out on your server. Variances is read / write percentage as well as random / sequential reads are common in certain applications, Web Servers read nearly 100% of the time while Database Servers write a small amount of data.
The Workstation test is the only single user environment and will be similar to how you use your system at home.
The controller used in the G.Skill Phoenix Pro was based on an enterprise controller and performs very well in server environments. Here we see a bit of the High IOPS programming coming into play and the Phoenix Pro is able to outperform the C300s in the tests where the SATA 6Gbps doesn't come into play.

Baked Bakery's "Good Morning Sunshine" bars have been on my 'to do' list for practically forever, and who knows why because they're so fricking easy to make that I basically feel like the laziest person ever for not making them. I finally got around to make them, but as i was reading through the recipe I just wanted there to be more.
The standard recipe is pretty solid on its own, it's got cereal, peanut butter, sugar (duh), and a drizzle of chocolate on top, but it also had chopped peanuts which for some reason I am generally not a fan of in my snacks. I like peanuts, I eat them quite frequently, but crunchy peanut butter? No thank you. Nuts in my cookies? Get out of here. Nuts in a quick bread? Pass. I know, I'm a crazy person.

Xbox 360 owners who use the popular Netflix app can now search for and play movies without using a controller.
Microsoft announced starting today, the Netflix app now supports the Xbox's motion control sensor Kinect.
Users can launch Netflix from the Kinect interface and seek out new movies with only voice commands and hand gestures. Users can also play, fast forward, pause and rewind film with their voice or hands.
"Since its launch, Netflix has always been one of the most popular services on Xbox Live, so we are excited to deliver a brand new way to control this experience in a way that can't be found anywhere else, says Pete Thompson, Xbox Live's general manager, in a statement.
The Netflix app -- which debuted on the Xbox in 2008 -- allows console owners with a Netflix subscription to stream movies and television shows, as well as share favorites with friends in a Movie Party.
Mike Snider began covering the video game industry during the Super Nintendo-Sega Genesis clash in 1992. An original pinball wizard, he eventually was seduced by Robotron: 2084 and Tempest. These days he is a fan of action/shooters and lives out his Keith Moon fantasies playing a mean drum kit on music games. More about Mike.
Brett Molina has been writing about video games for USA TODAY since 2005. He is well-versed in Madden NFL, the fighting genre and first-person shooters. The first video game he played was Asteroids at a local arcade. He has been hooked ever since. More about Brett.

Don't hire your brother. Don't hire your sister. Don't hire your mother, or your father. And just to be on the safe side, don't hire your uncle or your aunt. Adding family members to your company could be bad for business.
You Lose Leverage
READ ALSO: 5 Types Of Perfect Employees
The biggest problem when hiring friends or family is that you often lose the leverage you would otherwise have with a stranger. Haggling on price, demanding a rework or having to get tough about a deadline can make for an awkward situation when it's a close friend or family member. Whenever you're dealing with a friend there is another element that enters into it that would not be there if it were a strictly business relationship with a stranger. You lose a lot of leverage because you're unlikely to put your foot down for a lot of things. Everything is weighed by the fact that you could cause problems in the relationship or family.

Complete and utter goofball settles in Berlin after two years and twenty-two countries of traveling for free university & healthcare to escape crushing debt from trumpland.
My hobbies include hiking to mountaintop sunsets, eating all the blueberries, dumpsterdiving, couchsurfing, hitchhiking, busking with a ukulele and smashing the white supremacist capitalist patriarchy.
Segueing from that, I'm into sex-positivity, intersectional feminism, anti-racism, and anti-fascism. I don't see these things as something you are but rather something you do. Racism is a process, thus anti-racism is a practice not identity.
I'm in polyamorous relationship, living together in Berlin. And just like most other people in their twenties I'm still exploring myself.
I love astronomy, paleontology, oceanography -- ANY science! It's amazing! Anthropology, culture, and social constructs supply endless fascination. And maps and globes are an obsession of mine, I can stare at them for hours (If you have lots of old maps, message me now).
The last semester I was in uni I camped in the woods instead of living in a dorm
The sapiosexual label on okcupid seems so arrogant to me but I have it anyway. Who the fuck doesn't like smart people?
Each of the three times I've taken the MBT I got different results. Consider me an extrovert trapped in an introvert body. I prefer spending my time one-on-one with meaningful people.
Oh, you should know that I find texting very distracting. I don't text often. Please don't take it personally if I don't text you conversationally.
All I speak is English but I'm learning German, wanna help me practice? :)
...aaand looking for jobs in Berlin
If it's Winter, my bright red chullo
There's too many movies I haven't seen, I'm quite deprived. Anyways, I've enjoyed Harold and Maude, Wes Anderson's works, Love Actually, Brothers Quay films are über trippy, Safety Not Guaranteed, Dragon Heart, August Rush, Pan's Labyrinth, Kinsey, The Princess Bride, Good Will Hunting, Fight Club, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, Short Bus (I *need* to find someone else who's seen this (and now I have, so should I delete this now?)), Almost Famous, and way more that I'm forgetting. I gushed over Toy Story 3 -- I cried several times. Lately I'm more into indie flicks.
Bill Nye the Science Guy? Ok, look, I don't really watch tv. Not out of arrogance as if I think books are better (which is kinda truuuee) but mostly since electronic media is rediculously addictive and I already waste away my life on reddit, which is more than enough. Oh yeah, not having a tv or a computer for over two years also makes it difficult.
I love all kinds of music yet it doesn't mean as much to me as it does for most other people: I prefer silence more often than not. Music is too distracting for my ADHD/LD brain to focus. When I do get my groove on I prefer variety -- indie to celtic to punk to a cappella to alt-rock to ska to acoustic to the most avant-garde sounds you can think of. Some names I like: Regina Spektor, The Jezabels, Amanda Palmer, Björk, Phoenix, Boards of Canada, and The XX, and I've recently come to terms with myself that I'm a fan of indie pop. Oh and though I almost never go see live music I can still appreciate even the most shitty musicians -- it's the people that matter.
Parsnips, pecans, persimmons, pimento stuffed green olives, and anything pumpkin flavored particularly appease my palate. Food I don't like doesn't exist. Given the opportunity to try something new I will seize it, even if it's svið (boiled sheep's head, an Icelandic delicacy). -- and after having that in my profile for many years I finally went to Iceland and tried it!
Though I'm tempted to delete this since I've realized I've grown old enough that friends, community and close companions are all I want, so multiply that times two.
Consider that a poetic way of responding with "everything."
Need me to be more specific? The interactions between cognition and culture, how perspectives are mediated by our environment, and the psychologies that come out of this. I'm increasingly interested in post-modernism. Oh, right. Specificity. Umm... alienation and community, anarchism, critical pedagogy, digital anthropology, and how the internet and new technologies change the way we think, interact, empathize, communicate -- everything. Formerly I was all about the STEM fields, especially astrophysics, but college thankfully pried open my mind to what else is out there.
Other than that my life is a constant daydream, weaving stories together whenever I'm bored.
and NOT clubbing
In short, message me if pigs fly.

I just realized that the index page of the Vagabond Journey site sometimes is scrambled a little bit in Internet Explorer. It seems as if some of the photos overlap each other. I have not noticed this problem in Mozilla Firefox.
So I dug down into the page and realized that there was a lot of junk in the source code from the page editor that I am using (Nvu and now Kompozer). This morning I completely rebuilt this page, and it should be alright now.
Please let me know if it is not (or any other errors that any of you internet travelers may come across).

We are trying to plan a trip from Sedona to Denver and only have 5-6 days. End May/beg June 2012.
Firstly, is it worth it or is 5-6 days too short and we won't experience the journey fully and maybe we should stay around Sedona?
What are the must-see's? We've been to the Grand Canyon before but definitely want to see Monument Valley; Million$ Hiway sounds good and the best national parks on the way.
We also have a baby with us, so the less driving the better, max 3 hours a day.
Thanks in advance for your tips and ideas,

I think you have plenty of time. If you aren't planning on seeing the Grand Canyon again, spend a couple nights in Sedona, and then a night at Monument Valley. To break up the driving to Monument Valley (maybe 4 hours from Sedona?)- stop the Navajo National Monument on your way to Monument Valley - where you can see some Cliff Dwellings - on a nice walk from their visitor center. http://www.nps.gov/nava/index.htm
From Monument Valley - you should be able to get back to Denver in two driving days - maybe stopping in Moab or some other nice place along the way. From Moab - you are close to I 70 - and that may take you 4 plus hours, but you could stop at say Glenwood Springs for a break - and soak.
Or go through Southern Colorado and stop at Durango?

And here is how to get to Durango. You might even want to ride the steam? railroad there, but it all depends on how the baby is doing, eh?
Report Abuse
I'd go for it and would suggest a route that would go: Sedona to Monument Valley, about 4 hours, so stop along the way as suggested. With babies it is easiest to drive during their nap/sleeping time, so stay flexible and stop when you need to. Do pick up an inexpensive cooler before you leave and fill it with drinks and food for those times when you need to stop and there is no store close by. Fill your tank with gas whenever it gets below half as there are some areas where services are scarce.
I would want to see Mesa Verde along the way to Durang and maybe even go up to Moab for a day or so.
There is lodging along the route in Kayenta (south of Monument Valley if you can't get it in MV) and Mexican Hat (north of MV ). Also in Bluff, Blanding, Moab, Cortez, before you get to Mesa Verde if you can't get lodging in the park and Durango past Mesa Verde. If you go east from Durango along 160 there isn't much until you get to I - 25, if you head up to I - 70 to get back to Denver there will be places to stay along the hwy.
have a great trip.

Look into visiting Canyon de Chelly on your way. It's north of I-40 , near the AZ/NM border. Book a Navajo guide to explore the canyon in an SUV.
Report Abuse
It's all about choices but if you are not on a quest to see the bigger Cliff Dwelling sites - such at Canyon de Chelly - or Mesa Verde - the Navajo National Monument will certainly give you a very good introduction.
Also in Kayenta - at the local Burger King - is a small tribute to the Code/Wind Talkers - the Navajo - who during WWII - in the Pacific - serving with the Marines - used their native tongue so the Japanese could not listen in and find out where they were directing artillery fire, etc. They were sworn to secrecy until the 70's - and only then received little/belated credit. This thrilling movie - Wind Talkers - tells their tale - with Nicholas Cage and others. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0245562/

"also pick up the Grand Canyon El Tovar or Phantom Ranch"
For real!???
A couple with a baby is supposed to go to Phantom Ranch? At the bottom of the Grand Canyon, accessible only by raft or hiking 14-16 miles round trip?

After driving through Monument Valley, the next night would be spent at Moab Utah. Spend at least 4 hours at Arches NP.

a league of their own gift guide
what to get an IRL kit and dottie.
Ready or not, here it comes! Holiday season has arrived, and that means tons of shopping. But let's be real: your average gift guides are boring, so we're going to do things the NYLON way with lists inspired by our fictional dream BFFs. Every week we'll be picking the best gifts for our movie muses, so keep checking back to find that perfect item for your friend...or for yourself.
Fun fact: You can be tough in a skirt, graceful on a field, and all-around bad-ass even if you hail from a dairy farm in rural Oregon--at least, that's what we learned in A League of Their Own. The 1992 film tells the story of Dottie Hinson and Kit Keller, two sisters who make a name for themselves on the baseball diamond as part of the All-American Girls Professional Baseball League during World War II. Their rivalry may get heated, but there's something to love about their sporty instincts and Americana sensibility.
Even if you can't hit a home run you can capture a little bit of their all-star style with our handy gift guide, inspired by Dottie and Kit. Think a perfect pair of overalls, a bandana-print towel, and a digital camera that looks like your grandma's from 1944. Because, just as there's no crying in baseball, there should be no crying on Christmas morning.

Whatever happened to… The Shell House, Southbourne
Linsday Neal on the enduring appeal and ignominious end of a beloved landmark
Published in December '15
A Bournemouth landmark for more than 50 years, it's now almost 15 years since work began that culminated in the demolition of the famous Shell House at Southbourne to make way for a modern apartment block.
Started in 1948 (in memory of his son Michael who died at the age of 14 from meningitis), the garden of the family home on Overcliff Drive of former hotelier George Howard and his wife Sarah was transformed with seashells to create a unique tourist attraction of vignettes including two grottos, a statue of Saint George and the Dragon, a church, lucky fountain, several shrines and a wishing well.
George was reported to have once said he created his uniquely charming artworks because: 'shells are the only things in this world that grow more beautiful after death.'
As well as thousands of shells collected on nearby Southbourne beach, the extravagantly imaginative scenes also incorporated lava rock from Iceland, coral from the Red Sea, Porto Cristo rocks from Majorca, South African quartz and giant clams from the South Pacific. A long held local rumour persisted for years that some highly collectable and no doubt extremely valuable William Morris and William de Morgan tiles were also embedded in the concrete.
Inevitably the Shell House attracted its share of media attention including an early BBC Radio Solent feature by then cub reporter Peter White, now a regular presenter of Radio 4's You and Yours and the BBC's Disability Affairs Correspondent.
Elsewhere, according to Shell Garden, a 1965 short film by British Pathé, part of the Pathé Pictorial 'English Eccentrics' series, George was a coal miner from South Wales who ran away to sea. Back on dry land and having retired to live by the sea at Southbourne, he started collecting shells and when he had 100,000 of them he started to build his garden. The commentary claims that seventeen years after he began the project he had more than a million shells from all over the world on the half-acre site, including the biggest shell in Britain – a colossal clam from the Philippines that had cost him £50 to transport back to Southbourne.
In later years the giant shell had a sign beneath it inviting visitors to 'Please take a photo of your wee one sitting in shell'.
The garden featured two grottos, the largest about the size of a small garage. On entering visitors were treated to yet more shell decorations as well as further exhibits including records of donations made to charity and a series of framed letters from visitors. The smaller grotto was accessed by a few steps that lead down into a tiny room decorated with Victorian tiles and the inevitable arrangements of seashells.
Outside, all manner of odds and ends were incorporated into the displays, from broken plates and bits of old
china, to stained glass windows and even a piece of fossilised tree.
George never made a penny out of the garden, but the lucky fountain and the wishing well were there to encourage visitors to donate spare change to a range of charitable causes including the PDSA, old people's dinners, Cancer Research and the forerunner of what is now known as Scope. Before long the Shell House had a highly successful fund-raising function and over the years George and his family were able to donate thousands of pounds to charity, including Christchurch Hospital League of Friends, which named the patients' activity centre after George in 1988, two years after his death.
Commenting on an old home movie shared on YouTube, Jean Batty said: 'I spent all my holidays during the late 50s and 60s at Boscombe and would visit the Shell House a few times every year. It was a special magical place for a little girl and I loved it. I tried to find it with my grandchildren a few years ago now I see it's been demolished, sad but unsurprising.'
In a letter published online in 2007, George Howard's granddaughter Carol Mason wrote: 'It was a very special place for many locals, tourists and friends and family of George and Sarah Howard. I myself spent many childhood years at the House and garden, even clearing the wishing well of coins, cleaning and helping to distribute the money to so many worthy charities.
'But during the late eighties and nineties, the garden was constantly vandalised, money boxes that were bolted down [were] broken into weekly and the famous wishing wells emptied of their coins. Statues that grandad had lovingly placed were either smashed or stolen, one being a huge bronze of a man on horseback killing a lion, set in concrete.
'My father [Ray Howard] and the family spent many years after George and Sarah had died trying to keep the garden alive [but] everything in life has a time span. The spirit of the Shell House and my grandfather had been slowly eroded. Believe me, it took incredible strength on behalf of the whole family to end the Garden.
'Maybe we should have made public our intentions to demolish the Garden, but it was hard enough without all the adverse comments and publicity that would have ensued if it had been made known. We made the decision as a family and grieved as a family. It is so heartwarming that even now the public still remembers the Shell House with fondness.'
Carol's father Raymond started to dismantle the house and most of the shells in February 2001. Two years later the house was finally demolished and a block of flats now stands on the site. ◗

|Alex Smith/Utah
|Analysis: We're
told the 49ers actually have Smith rated higher than Rogers so they'll go with
him here.
Other Considerations: Braylon Edwards
|2- Miami Dolphins - Full NFL Draft Coverage @ DolphinDigest.com
|Ronnie Brown/Auburn
| Analysis:
He fills a need at one of the most important positions on offense. They would
also love to trade down to acquire as many picks as possible since they have so
many needs. If they stay at #2, Brown is the selection.
Other Considerations: Alex Smith if he would drop to them.
3- Cleveland Browns - Full NFL Draft Coverage @ BerniesInsiders.com
|Braylon Edwards/Michigan
They don't like from what we're told Rogers and since Smith is gone, they have
Edwards at the best value on the board and they'll go with him.
Other Considerations: Alex Smith should he drop to them.
4- Chicago Bears - Full NFL Draft Coverage @ BearReport.com
|Cedric Benson/Texas
| Analysis: Offensive
coordinator Ron Turner prefers the between the tackle runners who can handle a
lot of work so Benson makes the most sense here.
Other Considerations: Carnell Williams.
5- Tampa Bay Buccaneers - Full NFL Draft Coverage @ BucsInsiders.com
|Aaron Rodgers/California
|Analysis: It comes down to Rogers and Carnell Williams but this draft is deep at running back so head coach Jon Gruden will look for one a little later on the first day of the draft.
6- Tennessee Titans - Full NFL Draft Coverage @ TitansInsiders.com

8- Arizona Cardinals - Full NFL Draft Coverage @ CardinalInsider.com
|Carnell Williams/Auburn
|Analysis: It comes
down to who is the better value at a need position. Keep in mind that head coach
Dennis Green is more of an offensive minded coach.

9- Washington Redskins - Full NFL Draft Coverage @ WarpathInsiders.com
|Adam Jones/West Virginia
| Analysis:
They get a player at a need position who also can work on special teams returns.
Other Considerations: Mike Williams if he dropped down.
10- Detroit Lions - Full NFL Draft Coverage @ LionsFans.com

| Analysis: Tough
call here. Johnson's the right choice as he's the best value.

selection no matter what front they're using.

He's a good value here and is an upgrade over OLT Seth Wand.
Other Considerations: Jammal Brown.

them help at a need position. They can keep veteran OL Mike Wahle inside with
Brown in the fold.

| Analysis: Even
if they acquire Patrick Surtain, Rogers should still start opposite him.

16- New Orleans Saints - Full NFL Draft Coverage @ SaintsInsider.com
|Thomas Davis/Georgia
| Analysis: They
can play him at outside linebacker or at safety.
Other Considerations: Marcus Spears since he can play inside.

|Khalif Barnes/Washington
| Analysis: Fills
a big need at right tackle.

gives them help next to S Roy Williams.
Other Considerations: DeMarcus Ware since they could use another outside pass rusher.
21- Jacksonville Jaguars - Full NFL Draft Coverage @ JagsInsider.com
|Dan Cody/Oklahoma
| Analysis: Since
veteran DE Marcellus Wiley can't be counted on for much, Cody gives them youth
and talent at the position.
Other Considerations: Justin Tuck.
22- Baltimore Ravens - Full NFL Draft Coverage @ RavensInsider.com
|Travis Johnson/FSU
| Analysis: With
the move to a 4-3 defensive scheme, Johnson should be an immediate starter.
Other Considerations: Mark Clayton as they could use some top-shelf talent opposite veteran WR Derrick Mason.
23- Seattle Seahawks - Full NFL Draft Coverage @ Seahawks.NET
|Demarcus Ware/Troy St
| Analysis:
With veteran OLB Chad Brown on his last legs, Ware is a nice fit to replace him.
Other Considerations: Justin Miller since they could use depth at the position and he can work on special teams returns. Erasmus James, Matt Roth, and Justin Tuck as they need depth at end.
24- Green Bay Packers - Full NFL Draft Coverage @ PackerReport.com
|Justin Tuck/Notre Dame
| Analysis:
They need pass rush help and Tuck could actually come in and start as a rookie.
Other Considerations: Erasmus James and Matt Roth.
25- Denver Broncos - Full NFL Draft Coverage @ BroncosUpdate.com
|Erasmus James/Wisconsin
| Analysis: Gives
them badly needed youth at the position.
Other Considerations: Matt Roth.
26- New York Jets - Full NFL Draft Coverage @ JetsConfidential.com
|Justin Miller/Clemson
| Analysis: They
need a young cornerback Badly and Miller fits the bill well. His special teams
return ability helps.
Other Considerations: Matt Roth considering the status of veteran DE John Abraham.
27- Atlanta Falcons - Full NFL Draft Coverage @ FalconInsider.com
|Matt Roth/Iowa
| Analysis: They
could use a third end and veteran Brady Smith probably only has a year or two
Other Considerations: Mark Clayton.
28- San Diego Chargers - Full NFL Draft Coverage @ SDBoltReport.com
|Shaun Cody/USC
Analysis: They're looking for a defensive lineman and Cody gives them some
nice versatility there.
Other Considerations: Matt Jones because he gives them some size at receiver.
29- Indianapolis Colts - Full NFL Draft Coverage @ ColtsInsider.com
|Fabian Washington/Nebraska
| Analysis: He
helps fill a big need in the secondary.
Other Considerations: Marlin Jackson due to his ability to play safety as well.
30- Pittsburgh Steelers - Full NFL Draft Coverage @ SteelCitySports.com
|Heath Miller/Virginia
| Analysis: They
finally have a young and talented tight end after this selection.
Other Considerations: Matt Jones who would give them size at wide receiver.
31- Philadelphia Eagles - Full NFL Draft Coverage @ EaglesInsider.com
|Mark Clayton/Oklahoma
| Analysis:
Gives them badly needed talent opposite Matt Jones and he's a class kid who head
coach Andy Reid would like.
Other Considerations: We believe that they will wind up trading this pick but if they keep it, Matt Jones is another possibility to play receiver. He could be drafted to be an eventual replacement for Owens in a few years.
32- New England Patriots - Full NFL Draft Coverage @ PatriotsInsider.com
|Marlin Jackson/Michigan
| Analysis: He gives them size and
the versatility to play safety as well.
Other Considerations: Fabian Washington should he drop.

Meap's species is a cute race of aliens which Meap and Mitch belong to. Their home world is Meap's planet.
Their language only consists of the word "MEAP!". Members who live off-world or often go into outer space use the Universal Mustache Translator (which is just a mustache) for interacting with other species.
The species is shown to survive using cutonium. However if a member contains a large amount of cutonium they can possibly control others if they look at him. The species is shown to have a weak justice system since as Meap said the worst punishments they can give are time outs.
Interaction with Other Species
Their interaction with other species is shown to be limited since only Mitch and Meap were seen in space. The species don't appear to understand other species's languages, since Meap had to take off his mustache translator so that he could communicate with a radio operator on his planet.
The species is shown to be very cute as described by most who see them. They are short unless they wear a suit to give them a taller appearance. They also wear helmets, which are usually pink. Their heads are circular or oval shaped and their skin is white. They are shown to have big eyes and have no visible ears with even though the shape of their helmets suggest that they do have ears.
When Mitch drank the cutonium he had a vase-like, cylindrical shaped head. He had a tiny cape and his eyes were still big. His arms and legs became much shorter though.
Powers and Abilities
Besides being able to become skilled fighters they do not show that many abilities.
Their cuteness can be used to get things their way. If their cuteness is enhanced it also can give them the ability to control other beings, the cute blaster makes them cute.
They are shown to be able to shoot a powerful blast from their mouths. It is shown that they can set the intensity of the blast.
- Meap's Species are similar to the Nibblonians from Futurama.

Title: Facing Forward
Rating:T (mild language)
Beta:I didn't have one, so any errors are mine. :)
Disclaimer:I don't own NCIS. The thought of owning NCIS makes me giddy, though. And drinking a small glass of wine makes me giddy. So, by that logic, if I drink a small glass of wine and become giddy, does that mean I own NCIS?
Author's Note: I want to thank everyone who stuck this out with me. I apologize for the delays between these last few chapters. I didn't want to say anything before, as I didn't want to jinx it, but I quit smoking in the process of writing this story and needed to spend some time away from my laptop (hence the delayed chapters). However, it's been two and a half months, and I'm feeling more comfortable in my environment now. For those who knew and gave me encouraging words... thank you. For those who have reviewed this story as it went along, it's been appreciated. I hope you enjoy the final chapter.
From the previous chapter…
"I tried to, Gibbs. But then something happened, and it was just too much. Call it the final straw."
At the older NCIS agent's questioning look, Tony shrugged, and said, "You locked your door."
"I locked my door," Gibbs repeated, the incredulous look on his face making Tony feel more than a little ridiculous. And maybe embarrassed. And maybe kinda like a foolish kid. "The same front door for which you have the only spare key?"
"Well… yeah," the former agent meekly replied, trying to ignore the flaming of his cheeks. "That door."
"Well, hell, DiNozzo, why didn't you just use the damn key?" Gibbs asked.
From his former boss's tone, Tony figured he had two choices. One, explain in a more coherent manner, so that he and the man who'd once been mentor could mend their broken ways (and yes, perhaps have that Movie of the Week moment in a non-gay kind of way). Or two, he could babble.
In times like this, a few people could make the former NCIS agent's brain turn off. One stood in front of him, with a raised brow, awaiting an explanation.
"See, Boss, it's like this…" And the rush of embarrassment that had overwhelmed, settled bone deep, and Tony began to talk. It took him three minutes, the topic of neuroses (particularly those required to work for NCIS), and a head slap to take a breath.
"Stopping," he muttered, rubbing the back of his head.
In the past, he would've warily watched the older man set him straight – either with a reprimand, a smile, or in some other tangible manner. After all the Gunny could be tough, but fair.
It wasn't until Gibbs sank back into the arm chair, tilted his head up to the ceiling and sighed aloud that Tony suddenly saw the changes the years had made.
Whether it was the light streaming in through the windows or the way his own aged eyes perceived, Tony saw age – the way his former boss's hair showed just a little more white and a little less silver; the slightly more pronounced lines around the lips; the age spots starting to appear lightly on the neck (and they hadn't been there before).
That realization grounded Tony in a way nothing else could. And in the midst of the ensuing silence, his gut settled.
"I spent most of my life knowing I'd never measure up," he quietly explained. When Gibbs turned his gaze back to the younger man, he continued, "It had nothing to do with you, although towards the end I felt like I'd let you down, too. Everything had fallen apart, starting with Kate. It seemed like feeling crappy was just the way I was supposed spend my life. My penance."
When Gibbs opened his mouth, the younger man quietly interjected, "Let me finish."
After the NCIS agent nodded brusquely, Tony continued, "I spent years with every crap thing happening to me. Plague. Dead friends. Deceit. Pain. Wounds. Loss. So damn much loss." He stopped his recitation as a soft cough swept through him. It didn't help he choked on the list, and bile rose in his throat. So he closed his eyes and breathed in deep. Once he'd settled, he quietly said, "It seemed like I'd earned it all – run the gamut. And I was okay with that, because I'd grown accustomed to it. But then we found that little boy, and…"
Unable to find the right words, he paused, searching in vain; but he needn't worry about it. Because Gibbs provided them well enough.
"You felt good," Gibbs said, his face showing a dawning understanding of just how far down the dismal path his former agent had gone.
"I felt great," Tony clarified. And he had. The moment he'd found that kid, something in him turned on for the first time in so long, it had blinded him. Thinking of the child, he smiled sadly and added, "It was the most amazing feeling. It also faded as quickly as it arrived, and I had to wonder."
"About whether or not the job was worth it?" Gibbs asked.
"No – about whether or not I really cared if I lived or died anymore," he replied. "And that scared the shit out of me."
"Then why didn't you come talk to me?" Gibbs asked, exasperation evident in his tone.
"I tried. Your door was locked," Tony replied. "And while I may have had the key, I'd never used it before. I'd never needed to, 'cause your door's never locked." Very quietly, he said, "I didn't know if you'd just boot my ass out the door. I don't think I coulda taken that, boss. Not sure I would've made it home with my SIG still fully loaded."
That statement, so softly spoken, hung in the air between the two men. For his part, Gibbs tried to gain and hold Tony's gaze, while the younger man did his best to stare at the floor, his hands, just about everywhere except the NCIS agent. It wasn't until Gibbs quietly said, "Well, hell, Tony… I don't know what to say," that the younger man finally looked up.
"There wasn't anything you could say. I hit the end of what I could take. And as much as I may have needed the support, I needed more than you could give," he sorrowfully replied. "I needed to stand on my own two feet, and it gave me the kick in the ass I needed to make some changes."
At that point, Emily flew in the front door, laughing loudly at something Abby had said, and pranced into the room like a typical pre-teen, caught in her own world between the teenage world and still being his little girl. Smiling, Tony reached out to hold the younger girl's hand as he glanced at Gibbs and wryly said, "Most days I think they're the best changes in the world."
After baring his soul, Tony climbed up the stairs to his bedroom. Atop the house, the crow's nest looked out like a lighthouse. Most wouldn't care for the exposure. Tony had hidden everything so deep, he didn't mind the world being able to see within the confines of his private space.
Besides, if he really wanted a little privacy, he closed the drapes.
Dropping into his recliner, he kicked his feet up, leaned back, and dropped a blanket over his legs. The chair sat positioned in his favorite spot, with his favorite view. Crystals hung from every window in the round room, courtesy of Emily. As a small child, she'd loved to look at rainbows.
The older she got, the more she loved them. They were a remnant of her life before – a special piece of continuity, as Emily had inherited her love of their shine from her mother.
He heard her shoes first, as she clomped up the last few spiral steps, and smiled.
"I've missed you," Abby simply said, walking over and settling into Tony's bed. With her hands behind her head, she turned her head and grinned wickedly when she said, "I always knew you'd make beautiful babies."
Tony snorted a laugh before replying, "Uh, Abs, in case you didn't notice, they're not exactly mine."
"Don't you dare say that again, mister!" she retorted, indignantly. "Of course they're yours."
He rolled his eyes when he said, "You know what I mean."
"Yeah, I do. But they're still yours, and they're beautiful," she said. Tony could practically hear the squeal in her voice when she added, "And Em calls me 'Aunt Abby'. How cute is that?"
Chuckling, Tony tipped his head back, closed his eyes, and let himself relax into the recliner. As he slowly let general tiredness take over and draw him into sleep, he couldn't help but think Abby was right. He really did make beautiful babies.
Ducky, Abby and Curtis left within a week. Not that anyone had seen much of the elderly medical examiner. Michaela had taken him into town at one point, introduced him to a couple of old fishermen who loved to tell tales of their younger days, and no one had seen the man except when he popped in to check on Curtis (now mostly healed), and Tony (who was recovering more rapidly than expected).
The police chief had wanted to drive his kid to the airport, but had been stopped cold when the young Marine had refused. So instead, Tony and the girls stood on the front porch as Ian loaded the bags into the jeep and slid behind the wheel.
"You'll visit," Abby stated. The look she gave him dared him to argue. Tony had no doubt she'd do something drastic if he didn't, and nodded. Her look softened when she hugged him in a death grip and loudly whispered, "Bring the girls."
As she sniffled pitifully, she waved her hand in front of her face, gave each of Tony's daughters a quick, gentle hug, and nearly ran for the jeep.
Giving Tony a wide smile, the ME stepped forward and offered both hands with which to affectionately grip both of the police chief's hands. The twinkle in his eye didn't fade as he sternly said, "Next time, my boy, just ask me to visit. Don't go getting yourself sick or injured."
"Thanks, Duck," Tony replied with an warm smile. Squeezing the older man's hands lightly, he added, "And give Jimmy and his family my best."
"Ah, yes. Young Mr. Palmer will soon have his own little ones to watch over," Ducky said. "Such a happy time for your young 'Autopsy Gremlin'. I believe that's what you call him."
With that last bit, Ducky moved off at a more sedate pace. Tony wasn't worried about seeing the medical examiner again, as the chief had already heard rumors that one of the old men down at the docks had offered a trip out onto the rough waters – a chance for two old codgers to relive their youth. That had been planned for late in the summer.
Shaking his head in amusement, Tony turned to Curt, and a lump formed solidly in his throat. And much to both of their embarrassment, he pulled the Marine into a tight hug, kissed him solidly on the cheek, and felt a couple droplets run out of his eyes and down his cheeks.
"Geez, Pops," the young man muttered. "I'm only going back to Norfolk. It's not like it's on a different planet or anything."
Tony rubbed his hands over his face, trying to wipe away any sign of sudden bout of weeping, and gave his kid a watery laugh. It only took a deep breath to calm his nerves, before he looked the young man in the eyes, put his hands on his shoulders, and squeezed gently.
"You've made your parents proud," Tony said, gulping back the slow swelling of emotion that threatened to rise again.
"I know my mom and dad are proud of me," Curtis quietly replied. "But it means even more that you're proud of me."
Before either man could do something ridiculous, like fall into each others arms and weep uncontrollably, Mary stepped between them, gaining both their attention.
"I'll miss you," she said, wrapping her arms around her big brother's waist, laying her head on his chest, and murmuring, "Be safe."
As she stepped back, Emily took her place. The youngest didn't deal well with farewells. She never had, and for a moment, Tony held his breath in fear she'd break down as she had when Curt first went off to Basic Training. It was with a great deal of pride, though, that he watched his eleven-year-old cross her arms and start giving orders.
"You'll write every week."
"Yes, ma'am," he solemnly replied.
"You'll call whenever you can."
"Yes, ma'am."
"You'll be safe."
"I'm a Marine," he said. "I'll be as safe as I can be; but I'll do my duty."
"Okay," she replied. "Then I'll let you leave."
Laughing, Curt bent down, picked up his sister, swung her until she squealed and set her back on her feet. Before he let go, though, he whispered, "I love you," and walked away.
Settling into a wicker chair in the mid-morning breeze, Tony watched the jeep pull away, heading down the drive, over a small hill, and out of sight. Maybe life could settle back down again. One thing the police chief had come to appreciate was how quiet life could become. Out in the middle of nowhere, he had time to spend with his family, watch movies on a whim, and just rattle around town. Very different from his NCIS days, when he hadn't had time to breathe.
Where else could a man live, where a family emergency could cause an entire town to agree to reschedule the prom, just so the police chief's daughter could attend?
Smiling, Tony closed his eyes and inhaled deep, thinking of how happy Mary had been when Tommy had told her of the plans – how everyone agreed that it didn't matter when it happened, and just wanted her to be happy. In fact, Mary's boyfriend had been at the house for dinner just the night before, going over the plans once again. He knew his daughter would be getting out the dress, making sure she had everything for the big day.
Slowly stretching, Tony sauntered into the house, thinking about the rite of passage that was the prom, knowing full well half the town would tell him should Tommy so much as look at her wrong. He burst out laughing, though, as he closed the door. Because Mary must've brought the dress downstairs.
"What do you think, Uncle Gibbs?" Mary asked, pulling the protective covering off the stunning garment, smiling at the man the girls had dubbed family.
Gibbs nearly choked on his coffee before muttering in response, "You're wearing a sweater with that."

Background Information on Prohibited Antimicrobial Agents in Seafood
Aquacultured Seafood Products on the Rise
Aquacultured (farm-raised) seafood has become the fastest growing sector of the world food economy and accounts for nearly half of all seafood production worldwide. About 80% of the seafood consumed in the U.S. is imported from approximately 62 countries and over 40% is aquacultured seafood. As the aquaculture industry continues to grow and compete with wild-caught seafood products, concerns regarding the use of prohibited animal drugs and unsafe chemicals and the misuse of animal drugs in aquaculture operations have increased substantially. (US Food and Drug Administration, 2007b.).
Prohibited Antimicrobial Agents in Aquacultured Products
The use and misuse of antibiotics in food increased around 2001, when testing in the European Union revealed the use of chloramphenicol (a prohibited antibiotic) in a number of food products, including seafood from several Asian countries. Thereafter, Canada and the United States similarly found chloramphenicol in some shipments of imported seafood and other food. (Collette, 2006) While the U.S. has tested farm-raised shrimp for chloramphenicol since 1994, once the violation records of the E.U. and Canada became known, the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) developed more sensitive testing methodology and moved its levels of detection for chloramphenicol from 5.0 ppb to 1.0 ppb and finally its current detection level of 0.3 ppb. (Keyes, 2006) The FDA testing program for aquaculture drugs was revised and reissued in November 2005. The testing program includes antibiotics such as chloramphenicol, nitrofurans, fluoroquinolones, and quinolones, as well as nonantibiotic drugs like malachite green and ivermectin that are not approved for use in aquaculture fish. (Collette, 2006)
The use of prohibited antibiotics or chemicals in aquaculture raises significant public health concerns. The use of antibiotics or chemicals, such as malachite green, nitrofurans, fluoroquinolones, and gentian violet during various stages of aquaculture production can result in the presence of residues of the parent compound or its metabolites in the edible portion of the aquacultured seafood. Consuming aquacultured products with antibiotic residues from fluoroquinolones and chloramphenicol may contribute to an increase of antimicrobial resistance to this "critically important" class of antibiotics in human pathogens. Furthermore, prolonged exposure to nitrofurans, malachite green, and gentian violet has been shown to have a carcinogenic affect with long-term exposure in lab animals. (US Food and Drug Administration 2005, US Food and Drug Administration 2007a; and US Food and Drug Administration 2007b). A brief discussion on the evidence that malachite green, gentian violet and nitrofuran cause cancer is available on the FDA web site (http://www.cfsan.fda.gov/~frf/seadwpe.html#q12).
Chloramphenicol is a broad-spectrum antibiotic that is not approved for use in food producing animals and has been prohibited from extra-label uses in food producing animals in the United States. In the US, use of chloramphenicol in humans is reserved for treatment of certain serious, potentially life-threatening infections. Antimicrobial doses correlate with a low incidence (1:30,000 to 1:50,000) of serious and potentially fatal blood disorders, such as idiosyncratic aplastic anemia. Since these adverse reactions are idiosyncratic and are not dose related, a safe level of exposure to chloramphenicol is unknown. Chloramphenicol is suspected to be a carcinogen and may potentially affect the reproductive system in humans. (US Food and Drug Administration, 2004)
Another public health concern for chloramphenicol exposure is its role as a precursor to aplastic anemia. Aplastic anemia occurs when bone marrow produces too few blood cells. The reduction in red blood cells causes hemoglobin levels to fall, while reduced numbers of white blood cells increase susceptibility to infection. A fall in the number of platelets affects clotting of the blood. (Fegan, 2002)
Malachite green (MG) has been used around the world in treating external fungal and parasitic infections on fish eggs, fish and shellfish. MG is an effective fungicide, especially as a general hatchery disinfectant. Leucomalachite green (LMG) is a metabolite of MG and is persistently found in fish tissues long after MG may no longer be detected. (Canadian Food Inspection Agency, 2006)
Prohibited Antimicrobial Agent Residues Found in Aquacultured Seafood Products Between 2001-2007.
|Catfish, Basa, Tilapia and Other Pangasius
|Malachite Green, Fluoroquinolones (includes Ciprofloxacin and Enrofloxacin), Gentian Violet
|Whitespotted Clarias
|Malachite Green
|Walking Clarias Fish
|Fluoroquinolones (includes Ciprofloxacin and Enrofloxacin)
|Chloramphenicol, Malachite Green, Fluoroquinolones, nitrofurans, Gentian Violet
|Malachite Green, Gentian Violet
|Malachite Green, Gentian violet

FDA Violations
In the United States, use of malachite green, nitrofurans, fluoroquinolones, or gentian violet as drugs in aquacultured animals is illegal under Section 512 of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FFDCA). And presence of their residues in seafood adulterates the seafood under 402(a)(2)(C)(ii) of the FFDCA. (US Food and Drug Administration, 2007b.)
Also, malachite green, nitrofurans, fluoroquinolones and gentian violet are not generally recognized as safe under any conditions of intended use that may reasonably be expected to result in their becoming a component of food. Therefore, if these drugs are intended for any such use, they are unsafe food additives within the meaning of section 409 of the FDCA and would render the food adulterated under section 402(a)(2)(C)(i).

Drafting Employment Documents for Expatriates
By Juliet Carp
The globalization of the world's economies along with the increased mobility of employees and businesses are all features of modern commercial life. As a result, employment lawyers are increasingly being asked to advise on international employment matters and draft documentation. The issues surrounding drafting expatriate employment documents are complex and varied depending on the country of relocation. It can be time consuming and painstaking work to identify all the relevant rights and compliance requirements associated with employment, immigration, tax, and health and safety laws. Drafting Employment Documents for Expatriates provides detailed practical UK guidance on employing expatriates. Written from the employers' perspective, this major new work serves the needs of UK lawyers drafting contracts for migrant and immigrant workers, as well as overseas lawyers with the same issues.

Teacher had classroom mattress for "romping with children"
A former teacher who allegedly molested an 11-year-old pupil kept a mattress in his classroom on which he "romped with children", a court has heard.
Richard Alston, 70, is accused of repeatedly indecently assaulting the youngster at Cavendish School in Greenford, Middlesex, in the late 1970s.
The attacks are said to have taken place on school grounds, during a school camp and at the flat Alston shared with his then boyfriend, Peter Righton.
Southwark Crown Court in London heard evidence from Wendy Doyle, who worked as a teaching assistant at the school for maladjusted boys at the same time as Alston.
She said "overbearing" Righton had been a governor at the school, but Alston did not really have much personality.
When asked by prosecutor Peter Clement if there was anything unusual about Alston's teaching, she replied: "There was a mattress that they kept in the cupboard. It was small, just a rolled-up, flat mattress.
"If you wanted to go into the classroom, you couldn't really push the door open anyway, because the mattress was down, with the furniture pushed back."
She added that she thought it was "odd" but did not say anything to the headteacher at the time.
Simon Spence, defending, asked Mrs Doyle what she meant when she said she "imagined" Alston and the children had been "romping" on the mattress.
She answered: "Richard and the children were in the classroom. I could see from his reaction when he came out - he was hot and bothered, if you like."
Alston denies six counts of indecent assault and four counts of indecency with a child against one complainant in the late 1970s.
He allegedly first molested the then 11-year-old after he fell off a climbing frame in the play area of the school, under the pretence of comforting him.
Two further indecent assaults are said to have taken place during a school camp, and allegedly involved Alston creeping into the complainant's tent and touching him while swimming in a pond.
Mr Clement told the court that one of the allegations was that Alston had gone into the 11-year-old's tent and slid his hand into his sleeping bag and into his pyjamas, under the pretence of wishing him goodnight after "story time".
On one occasion Righton - now deceased - gave the boy, who cannot be named for legal reasons, a pair of silk swimming trunks, which he asked him to wear and "parade" in front of himself and Alston, jurors heard.
Other allegations state that Alston and Righton - sometimes in the presence of their friend Charles Napier - would play pornographic films at their flat and watch the youngster's reaction, occasionally asking him to perform sex acts on them as he did so.
Alston, of Bury St Edmunds, Suffolk, is on bail and denies all charges against him.

It's Monday again, and after a long getaway weekend in Austin, I'm still craving more pool time. I spent yesterday morning reading and swimming at the Barton Springs pool. Have any of you Texans been there? I love it! It's such a fun spot and I love that it's a natural pool and home to the endangered Barton Springs Salamander. As we begin another work week, I thought it would be fun to share a few beautifully-designed pools and their surrounding landscapes. Architect Nick Noyes designed this lap pool in a client's backyard, and the waterfall and surrounding greenery are lovely.
And what could we expect from Tory Burch other than a stately pool house with trelliswork details?
I love the minimalist feel of this pool, with it's cast-concrete walls and steps. The shape of the pool is interesting, as well!
Located in Southern France, this 80s residence was given new life by ML-H Design. The clear water is calling my name. Now, if only this house was listed on Behomm.
Taking in to account the details when designing a pool can be just as important as designing an interior. I love the pattern of black and white tiles surrounding the edges of this one, as well as the adjacent chic cabana.
I could definitely lounge in this picturesque outdoor space for hours.
One of my all-time favorite designers, Suzanne Kasler, has a stunning backyard with a serene pool at her Atlanta home. I love the Janus et Cie bench, too!
Speaking of Atlanta, I am heading there tomorrow for work. I can't wait to visit the city and maybe have time to do a few fun things and reconnect with a few friends. Atlanta people- any store or restaurant recommendations?
Happy Monday!!

AT&T is $39 for internet and phone. I don't even have the phone connected. So, it's $39 for just internet and then Direct TV charges me $59 / mo for satellite TV service w/ DVR.
In my zip code internet only is $39 then jumps to $45 after six months. So, you can see, the prices are different for different locations. They're probably a lot cheaper in Sheila Jackson Lee's part of Houston than they are in The Woodlands.
We just switched from Comcast to AT&T U-verse. Not only is it less expensive than Comcast, but also it qualifies us for a 12% discount on our AT&T cellular service.

Titian was a sixteenth century Italian painter.
Walter Donovan owned some of Titian's work and kept it at his Venetian apartment around 1938. That year, while staying in Venice, Marcus Brody spoke of Titian's Presentation of the Virgin being part of the Galleria dell'Accademia's art collection to Indiana Jones.

The indictment last month of seven current and former executives of one of the state's biggest engineering firms revealed a gaping hole in New Jersey's campaign-finance laws.
The executives of Birdsall Services Group were charged with money-laundering, conspiracy and making false representations for government contracts. The state alleges that Birdsall solicited contributions of $300 from its employees, reimbursed them with bonuses, and bundled the donations to give Democratic and Republican candidates $686,000 over a period of six years.
Under the state's pay-to-play law, those donations should have disqualified Birdsall from obtaining government contracts, but the firm has received $86.7 million in such contracts since 2008 - $28 million worth of contracts in 2011 alone.
So why did Birdsall allegedly solicit donations of $300 or less? Because that is the threshold for reporting the identity of campaign donors in New Jersey. The politicians who cashed all those bundled checks did not have to tell anyone whom they were from.
In most other states, campaigns must report the identity of donors who give as little as $100 or $50. The Star-Ledger reported Sunday that the higher limit means New Jersey politicians can keep more of their donors secret than in any other state. In 2011, of a total $100 million in political contributions statewide, no donor information was given for $12 million. So 12 percent of New Jersey donations were kept secret.
Jeffrey Brindle, executive director of the Election Law Enforcement Commission, told The Star-Ledger his office will consider recommending a lower reporting threshold for New Jersey to bring it in line with other states.
But the real question is, why have any limit at all? A half dozen states, including Florida, Ohio and Maryland, require disclosure of all campaign donations, regardless of amount.
And if any state needs that kind of transparency, it's New Jersey, where political sleight of hand has long been a favorite sport. If companies are adept at bundling $300 donations - and you can bet this practice goes well beyond a single engineering firm - they could certainly do the same thing with $100 donations.
The $300 threshold was originally intended to cut down on paperwork that campaigns file with the state. But since most campaigns and political organizations keep records on computers now, filing reports is easier. It is no hardship to have them report everything, and no hardship for the state to keep those records.
Would full disclosure inhibit some small donors who value their privacy from contributing to a campaign? Perhaps. But why shouldn't voters at every level know who is writing checks to their public officials, and to whom those officials are indebted?
