Sister Jude
this wiki
Born Judy Martin[2], Sister Jude was once a promiscuous nightclub singer. Alcoholism was said to be a complaint common to her family. She was involved in a drunk-driving accident that injured a young girl and it was another drunk-driving incident that brought her, literally, to the doorstep of the Catholic Church.
Sister Jude was named after St. Jude, the Apostle. St. Jude is the Patron Saint of Lost Causes.
Personality and Appearance
She believes that mental illness is the fashionable explanation for sin. She is dedicated to the management of Briarcliff, hoping to make it a model institution and to atone for past sins. While stern towards her subordinates and those in her care, she is remarkably self-effacing in the presence of Monsignor Timothy Howard, the head of the institution, whom she fantasizes about. She does have a capacity for compassion, indicated by her treatment of Sister Mary Eunice and a suffering Jed Potter. She resents Dr. Arden, both for his dismissal of her faith and the free rein he is permitted outside her purview.
Sister Jude attempts to punish Shelley's transgressions by shaving her head but is interrupted by the arrival of newspaper reporter Lana Winters escorted by Sr. Mary Eunice. She tells Lana of the manor's bakery (Lana's stated interest) and of the great vision of Monsignor Timothy Howard. Kit Walker who is claimed to be Bloody Face is then questioned by Sister Jude in her office. She begins asking him questions, referring to his marriage with a black woman (Alma Walker) and why he killed her. Kit states that he was abducted by aliens and that he would never hurt Alma or another woman. Sister Jude wants nothing to do with his story so she begins to insult Alma prompting Kit to spit on her. Jude, wiping her face, states that he should not have done that and begins to cane him. After the caning, Kit is then seen in the common room meeting other inmates. He happens upon Grace, and Shelley, who tries to sexually harass him, when he is then attacked by Spivey. Sister Jude rushes in, blowing her whistle, stopping the attack. Jude then takes Kit to solitary confinement.
Sister Jude is now seen arguing with Dr. Arden, the institute's physician and Administrator. They are arguing about missing inmates. Dr. Arden simply states that they are dead and that they had no family. Sister Jude finds that very curious and exits the office, not without saying that she will get to the bottom of his schemes. Arden dares her to try.
Sr. Jude prays as she cooks dinner. She is wearing red lingerie and touches her body with her perfume-sprayed hand. Later she and Monsignor Howard have dinner together. She asks where he found Arden, and he rebuffs her concerns about him. He insists that science and faith can co-exist under their roof and that she can be Mother Superior in his new order, as he aspires to be Pope. She fantasizes about mounting him at the table as he urges her to let Arden do as he will. Wielding a cane, Sr. Jude scolds Sr. Mary for allowing Lana into the asylum. A sobbing Sr. Mary says that the cane is not big enough for the sins she has committed, and brings her a much larger one. She begs Sr. Jude to punish her as she lifts her habit and bares her bottom, but Sr. Jude gives in and sends her away.
Sr. Jude visits Wendy and intimidates her into not fighting Lana's commitment by threatening to reveal their lesbian relationship. The asylum has restrained her during her trespassing and will be "treating" her for her disorder.
Arden is cleaning a closed solitary cell, where he is discovered by Sr. Jude. Something has been living in it, but Arden denies such claims.
Back at the asylum, Sister Jude is doing room checks. In Lana's cell, Jude finds that Lana has been writing everything she's seen in the asylum down on paper, which Jude takes away from her. Sister Jude wants to erase Lana's memory, and has Dr. Arden perform electric shock therapy on her. Dr.Thredson has a talk with Sr. Jude, and expresses his belief that the asylum is barbaric in its treatment methods. Sr. Jude brushes Oliver aside and has a chat with a concerned family, and Dr. Thredson interrupts. The family informs them their son, Jed, has begun hearing voices and seeing things that aren't there, and ate the heart of one of their farm animals. They express belief that he may be possessed by a demon. They go to see Jed in his room, his body completely twisted. He cries that he is scared and does not know where he is before speaking his horrific language. Mnsr. Howard and Father Malachai are then called in to perform an exorcism.
Just before the exorcism begins, Jude tries to perform the ritual with the two priests but is insulted - told it is no place for a woman - by Malachai and asked to wait outside. Jude steps outside and speaks with Jed's parents. As the battle with the demon ensues, the lights inside the asylum begin to flicker and loud noises are reverberated all throughout the institute. Father Malachai is then injured and removed from the exorcism. After a brief break, Jude is called in to help. The demon begins to personally attack each member and states something personal that has happened to them. He then taunts Sister Jude about her past drinking, promiscuity and manslaughter. Jed keeps repeating, "You're a murderer, Judy!" Jude loses her temper and slaps Jed across the face. Mnsr. Howard grabs Jude and forces her out of the room. Thredson gives Jed a sedative and he goes in cardiac arrest, dying. As Jed dies, his body contorts and an unseen force attacks Eunice, knocking her out. Meanwhile, all the locked cells are opened and several inmates try to escape only to have Lana scream for the orderlies, halting the escape.
Sister Jude praises Lana for sacrificing her own freedom to stop Kit. She tells her she gets a reward, inviting Kit and Grace into the office and allowing Lana to pick the cane with which they are to be punished. Before the Sister can proceed Kit tells Grace to stand up and takes the entire blame on himself. Jude accepts this but doubles Kit's punishment to 40 lashes.
Sr. Mary Eunice brings the mail to Sr. Jude, including a newspaper dated 1949, referencing missing Framingham resident Missy Stone, shown in a photograph to be Sr. Jude's hit-and-run victim. Distraught to the point of paranoia, she is kneading bread when Dr. Thredson asks her about Jed's autopsy and she begins accusing him of planting the newspaper and gives him two weeks notice to clear out his office.
Sr. Mary Eunice informs the residents of the upcoming storm and the plans to comfort them with a showing of Cecil B. DeMille's The Sign of the Cross. Sr. Mary Eunice, now possessed, seems to have knowledge of Jude's past and begins to taunt her with Communion wine, knowing she's a recovering alcoholic, along with red lipstick to which she states Dr. Arden wanted to give her, referencing her red lingerie. Sister Jude is then left alone, distraught.
Sr. Jude confronts Arden about the forbidden lipstick. Arden admits to admiring Sr. Mary Eunice's purity and innocence, but believes her to be corrupted by patients like Shelley. Sr. Jude disagrees, asserting that it is Arden's doing and again makes paranoid accusations about an attempt to usurp her. He suggests she take a leave of absence. She leaves to pray in her office, and the telephone rings. Her hit-and-run victim speaks to her from beyond the grave. Sr. Jude apologizes, and seeing the girl's broken spectacles on the desk begins to weep. She breaks her sobriety by sampling the Communion wine and leaves her office to start the film for the residents. An orderly reports that The Mexican is missing from her cell. Sr. Jude introduces the "first inaugural" movie. She tries to calm the storm-frightened residents, but she is clearly shaken and breaks down in tears while reciting the entirety of Rodgers and Hammerstein's "You'll Never Walk Alone". Drunk, Sister Jude begins to search for the missing inmates. As she searches the halls, she catches glimpses of others running away. Jude begins her chase and then finds herself face to face with one of Kit's Alien acquaintances.
Sr. Mary Eunice wakes Sr. Jude from her drunken stupor and tells her of the escape of the others. Sr. Jude puts an early end to movie night and all other future privileges due to the three escapees, who she mistakenly believes to be Shelley, The Mexican, and Pepper, as the others have returned with muddy shoes to their seats.
Frank escorts Sister Jude to the cell of an unidentified woman who was brought to the asylum after she was arrested for assault. Sr. Jude learns that the newcomer was enraged by an off-hand anti-Semitic remark. Upon further questioning she defiantly begins whistling a tune. Sister Jude questions the woman's claims. "Anne" says that her savior was an American soldier, who widowed her during reemployment in the Korean War. She concealed her identity to inspire others as a martyr. Anne reveals that Dr. Arden is really Hans Gruper, a Nazi war scientist.
Sister Mary Eunice, with Frank's help, finds both Grace and Kit engaged in sex in the kitchen. They are immediately apprehended and brought to Jude's office. While there, Jude notices a change in Eunice's attitude and rewards her for it allowing her to chose which cane can be used on the two accused. However, Jude has a different idea and suggests sterilization for Grace and Kit. Sister Jude then tells Msgr Howard about Arden's past. He dismisses her claims against Arden. He also says he knows she's been drinking. He urges her to pray and reflect. In Arden's lab, where Shelley struggles, Howard calls and tips Arden off that they are on to him and that he should get his affairs in order.
Sister Jude tells her Mother Superior that she has slipped off the wagon as they stroll through the woods. She also relates that she thinks Arden is a war criminal. The Mother Superior suggests that Sr Jude go behind Mnsr. Howard's back and investigate Arden's past.
Sister Jude meets Sam Goodman, a Nazi hunter and Holocaust survivor, at Mother Claudia's recommendation. She gives him Arden's personnel file as he explains how false records can be made. He urges her to stay away from Arden, lest he grow suspicious. After hearing about what had happened to Arden, Jude talks with Anne and tells her that her claims are false. Having searched the lab, Jude has found no clues as to what Anne saw. Anne's husband arrives at Briarcliff and informs Sr. Jude that her real name is Charlotte Cohen Brown. He explains that his wife is "high-strung" and obsessed with Anne Frank after seeing a play about her life. Sr. Jude allows her to be released to her husband - the woman claims not to know him and insists that she is Anne Frank, but a family photo appears to snap her to reality. Frank then informs Sr Jude that Lana is missing, off grounds. Sister Jude, broken down, has finally given up and tells Frank certain aspects of her life that led her to this life. Sister Jude is then seen, dressed and made up, in a bar where she is being offered a drink. Sr Jude awakens and dresses after sleeping with the man who had bought her a drink the night before, carefully making sure not to wake him.
Sam Goodman, the Nazi hunter, calls Sr. Jude to tell her that Charlotte Brown was right after all about Arden, even if not about herself. He will need a fingerprint to prove these claims. The Monsignor enters Sr. Jude's office, and tells her that he has transferred her to a home for wayward girls in Pittsburgh. She blames Arden for orchestrating the situation. He tells her to pack her things. Sr Mary Eunice walks in on Sr Jude packing, and the elder explains the situation. She bids the younger nun to get cognac from the kitchen.
Sister Jude then enters Arden's room and proposes a celebratory toast for his dismissal of her. Suspecting poisoning, he will not drink the toast alone so Jude joins him. Sister Jude now has the fingerprints she was asked to retrieve. As this is happening, Mary Eunice, dressed in red lingerie, receives a phone call from Sam Goodman. She answers, using Jude's voice. Sister Mary goes to the hotel to meet Sam. He asks if Sr Jude sent her, but she says that Sr Jude does not know she's there. Without hesitation, Mary Eunice attacks Sam, slashing his throat with a piece of glass. Sr Jude later arrives with the now fingerprinted glass, but Sam has already been slashed. With his final words he tells Jude that it was a young nun who attacked him. In his hotel room, Sister Jude is tending to a dying Sam Goodman. She attempts to call the police and while doing this, notices that there is a bottle of bourbon on the table. Meanwhile, the Angel comes to kiss the detective. Sister Jude turns to see that on the TV, there are newspaper clipping relating to the "girl in the blue dress". Underneath the paper is the word, "MURDERER" written in blood.
In a flashback, a hungover Judy awakens in a trashed hotel room to Terry (one of her band members) knocking on her door. He comes to inform her that she has been replaced in the band as singer, since she missed their show the previous night. She attempts to seduce him into changing his mind but he denies her. As he leaves, he informs her that the police are going to come and question her about a hit-and-run case a few days prior. Judy panics and packs her things. She leaves and begins driving but decides to drink while she is on her way. She crashes her car and awakens in front of a statue of an angel. A nun approaches her car and asks if she is hurt.
The phone rings in Sam's hotel room. It is Sister Mary Eunice who claims to be Sister Jude's "conscience". She taunts Sister Jude with accusations that she was the one who killed Sam, telling her that the police will think he was, in fact, investigating Sister Jude for the murder of the "girl in the blue dress". She advises that Sister Jude never return to Briarcliff and that she should start running. She tells Jude that she left her the bottle of bourbon as well as a straight razor.
In a diner, Sister Jude sits down but gets up to go to the restroom. She washes her hands and takes out the straight razor. She slits up her left wrist. She is seen laying in a pool of blood. However, this turns out to simply be her imagination, for she walks out of the bathroom and sits across from Shachath.
She asks the angel why she was kept alive, despite prior suicide attempts. The angel tells her that she does not judge, but that Jude's story was different. Jude once tried to kill herself after her fiance left her the night before her wedding. She had apparently told him he had given her syphilis and that she could never have children. The angel tells Jude that "God had a plan" for her and that it was not yet time to die. Jude admits her failure in the eyes of God and says she is just a "drunken whore and a murderer." The angel tells Jude that "Peace is close". Jude replies, "I'm ready. Ready to do one last thing." A pair of the waitresses at the diner witness Jude talking to no one and decide that they should probably call Briarcliff, just so she can have a place to sleep.
Jude visits the family of Missy Stone. As they discuss the little girl, and as Jude is about to confess, a young woman in a nurse outfit enters the house. It turns out to be a grown Missy. Apparently, she was returned to her family with only a few broken bones. Jude reacts in a confused state and says that she prayed for Missy's soul ever since the accident. She recalls that the accident occurred around the time she decided to become a nun and that after it occurred, it inspired her to take her vows. Missy's mother informs Jude that her husband, Hank, had vowed to avenge what had happened to Missy, but it turns out that they accepted that whoever had left her there would suffer on their own.
Jude comes back to Briarcliff, sneaking behind Sr. Mary Eunice and holding a straight razor at her neck. Jude threatens the Devil inside of her, but the Devil laughs off the threat and flings canes and a record at her. Arden comes in, and Sr. Mary Eunice orders him to call security, and Jude is taken away out of Briarcliff. Jude visits Mother Superior to convince her to allow Jude access back into Briarcliff. Arden visits Jude in the sanctuary. Arden pleads for her help with Sr. Mary Eunice, and Jude agrees to it, but she makes him swear to follow her instructions. Arden lets Jude back into Briarcliff, and tells him to bring Sr. Mary Eunice to her office and not let anyone in. However, Arden betrays her and remains loyal to Sr. Mary Eunice, and the two instead send Lee Emerson to her office, in hopes that he will kill Jude. Lee has flashbacks of being caned by Jude, and throws her over the desk, caning her. He then throws Jude on the bed, with the intention of raping her. Jude stabs Lee in the neck with a sharp letter opener she had grabbed off the desk earlier when she was being caned.
Jude is framed for the murder of Frank McCann by Sr. Mary Eunice, Dr. Arden, and Leigh (who survived their encounter). Monsignor Timothy Howard and Mother Superior both tell their stories as well, saying that Sr. Jude was gradually becoming more unstable and delusional. Jude wakes up, strapped and restrained to a bed in Briarcliff. She resists and scratches one of the nun's face and is slapped in return. The Monsignor comes in and tells the two nuns to leave. The Monsignor tells her that she almost killed Leigh, but she protests in self-defense. He tells her that she did kill Frank a guard, and that a magistrate has determined that she will spend the rest of her life in Briarcliff. Leigh is later brought to Jude's cell by The Monsignor where he tells her he forgives her and he kisses her forehead. Jude apologizes to Lana in the common room, promising to make it up to her by getting her out of Briarcliff. Lana doesn't trust the promise after her encounter with Thredson. Jude vows to earn her trust, and breaks the "Dominique" record, while Lana simply replies "Well, hot damn"
Jude's actions prompt Sr. Mary Eunice to purchase a jukebox for the common room to replace the record player. While doing a room search, Sr. Mary Eunice finds a cucumber in Jude's room, and Jude challenges Sr. Mary Eunice to punish her. Jude is given electroshock therapy, and it is turned up extra high. As a result, Jude is left in a drugged state and has trouble remembering names. She envisions herself singing "The Name Game" while the other Briarcliff inmates dance along. In the bakery, Timothy visits her and sobs as he tells her that he was robbed of his virtue by Sr. Mary Eunice, and asks for her help on dealing with the situation. Jude tells him to kill Sr. Mary Eunice. Jude sits in the common room recalling names when Mother Superior visits her. Jude tells her that she is leaving for Rome with Timothy, but Mother Superior passes it off. Jude tells her to help Lana Winters get out of Briarcliff because she does not belong there.
As time goes by, Jude manages to adjust to life as a patient at Briarcliff, managing the other patients due to her previous skills as former administrator. She also finds an ally in Pepper, as they both look out for each other when danger or suspicions arise. She also rebels against her former staff members by refusing to take the medications, stating that they're actually horse tranquilizers. She now has certain disdain for the Monsignor (who's now the administrator), once claiming her admiration for him, which she now regrets and sees him as a coward for not renouncing his vows after Sr. Mary Eunice forcibly robs him of his virtue. When Lana returns to Briarcliff in an attempt to release Jude and shut down the asylum, she learns from the Monsignor that Jude hanged herself in her cell, when in reality he has imprisoned her in an isolated cell to keep her from confessing the horrors within the asylum.
When the Monsignor informs her that he's being promoted to Cardinal of New York, he states that he will arrange for Jude's (now known as Betty Drake to ensure her imprisonment at Briarcliff) release in the coming weeks. But then she encounters an inmate from the state who bears similarities to Shachath, she believes she has come to grant her death. While constantly being tormented by her, she ends up realizing that she's not Shachath, but another inmate with whom she shares a cell. When questioned by Dr. Crump concerning her behavior, she shockingly learns that it's been nearly two years since the Monsignor had promised her release, that Pepper has passed within that time, and everything within that time period has been a hallucination.
During her interview, in present day, Lana re-imagines rescuing Jude while discussing the filming of Briarcliff Exposed. In actuality, Jude was not there when the documentary was filmed. Lana admits the truth and retells how it was Kit who had begun to frequently visit Jude following the deaths of Grace and Alma, and eventually becomes her caretaker. Kit helps Jude through her recovery from the medication and trauma she received during her time as a patient, and notices positive changes in Jude's demeanor. However, Jude is soon overwhelmed by flashbacks of incidents at Briarcliff, and in a insane mental breakdown, attacks kit and his children with a broom. The two children, in an attempt to calm her, escort her out into the woods. Upon their return, Jude's mind is inexplicably healed, and she bonds with Kit, Juila, and Thomas by providing life lessons and even teaching them to dance. Six months pass and Jude becomes ill, finally succumbing to Shachath's kiss.
The series comes full circle when it ends on a flashback to the beginning of it all in which Jude is cautioning Lana about wanting to interview Bloody Face, saying that "If you look in the face of evil, evil's going to look right back at you."
- To Lana: "You're out of your depth, Miss Lana Banana."
- To Kit: "I wonder, did her dark meat slide off the bone any easier than the other victims?"
- To Lana: "Mental illness is just the fashionable explanation for sin."
- To Inmates: "A sexual deviant, a Mexican, and a pinhead won't get far in this storm. I hope they all drown out there."
- To Kit: "All monsters are human... you're a monster."
- To Sister Mary Eunice: "Maybe the sin was mine, maybe my faith in you was nothing but the sin of pride!"
- To Inmates: "...and as the Emperor Nero, the incomparable Mr. Charles Laughton, who I understand is an enormous whoopsie."
- To Lana: "If you look in the face of evil, evil is gonna look right back at you."
- To Monsignor Timothy: "Childish? Hell, I'm the Queen of Candyland!"
- To Monsignor Timothy: "I'm blessed, with the gift of total clarity. I am more sane now as a mad woman, than I ever was as the head of Briarcliff."
- To Lana: "We're gonna slay that monster together, you and I."
- She is the second character to be portrayed by Jessica Lange. The first was Constance Langdon, the third is Fiona Goode, and the fourth is Elsa Mars.

100% Gasoline...definately better
Well I drove several hundred miles on 100% gas and I can honestly say the engine does run better. Not a big difference but enough to be able to tell. It runs smoother and idle's better. On 10% ethanol it seemed like on a very slow acceleration the engine would not hesitate but as if you would back off on the gas peddle causing the transmission to not shift tight. On 100% gas, definately a nice solid tight shift as it goes through the gears. No wishy washy.One other thing I noticed, on the highway at 65-70 mph (I-81)I went to pass a car and floored it and it kicked in and set me right back in my seat. God only knows how fast I was moving when I came back into the right lane but DAMN it felt great. Good solid, strong acceleration. So....I'm pleased with the results and will continue to use the 100% gas whenever I can. The station is 18 miles away from my house but I go past it 2-3 times a week so its no problem. Obviously when I go on a trip I'll go back to 10% ethanol just for convenience. The MPG did go up but only about 1-1/2 mpg. It costs 18 cents/gal. more so that's a wash, no gain there. All that driving was also running with the A/C on at all times, that might give me another 1/2 mpg. Thanks again Guys for all your input.
Re: 100% Gasoline...definately better
Re: 100% Gasoline...definately better
You are fortunate if you live in a area where you can purchase ethanol-free gasoline. In large cities and heavy industrial areas where air pollution is an issue, all gasoline must contain at least 10% ethanol. These geographical areas are referred to as "EPA Non-Attainment Areas" because the area has not met the EPA standards for reduction in volatile organic compounds (VOC) and nitrous oxide (NOx) pollutants. I live in the Houston, TX metro area, ethanol-free gas is not available for approximately 100-mile radius.
PURE GAS is a cell phone app that locates and maps the closest service stations providing ethanol-free gas. It provides address and distance to both branded and unbranded stations. PURE GAS is a great tool to avoid ethanol. If I had a choice, I would never buy ethanol gasoline. |
Re: 100% Gasoline...definately better
Hey Brainstormer, I found another station with 100% gas a few miles away from the one I have purchased from. I live in the Shenandoah Valley in Virginia. Its completely farm land. With you giving everyone that very nice explanation (thank you), it makes sense that 100% gas is in an area like this. My son-in-law's Dad has a farm and he was telling me he goes out of his way to get the pure gas for all the farm equipment. Says it makes a big difference with some of the machinery.I had to take my wife to the Dulles Air Port this morning which is about 190 miles round trip and my mpg was 25.1 That would make it about 3 mpg more than 10% ethanol. Every little bit helps. lol !!
Re: 100% Gasoline...definately better
you can usually find ethanol free gas near marinas and small airports.
Re: 100% Gasoline...definately better
JEEP is an agile 4x4, but it can't swim. Aviation fuel is +$5.00.
The PureGas app is free. |

A couple arguing in their home ended up stabbing one another over the American Idol.
Karen Elaine Harrelson, 48, and Gregory L. Stambaugh, 57, told York County police they couldn't agree on which contestant would win the contest on the night of May 15, leading to their violent fight.
They also couldn't agree on who stabbed who first.
They are charged with one count of felony aggravated assault and two counts of simple assault after allegedly stabbing one another.
When police arrived at Harrelson's West Manchester Township home they found the couple waiting on the front porch with blood all over their clothing.
Harrelson told investigators she went upstairs from the basement where they were watching the show to cut a piece of cake when her boyfriend, Stambaugh, followed her up.
Harrelson said Stambaugh grabbed a second knife from the kitchen and slashed her wrist before hitting her over the head and throwing her down on the floor.
His injuries, seen on his left forearm, were done by her in self-defense she said, according to the criminal complaint.
Stambaugh's recount was entirely different.
The 57-year-old said he was in the basement when she returned from the kitchen brandishing the knife and proceeded to stab him in the arm.
He said he ran after her, back into the kitchen, and in his attempt to wrestle away the knife believes she only then may have been mistakenly stabbed.
Both admitted to drinking throughout the day with each also arguing on how much.
Harrelson told police she had four beers that night.
Stambaugh accused Harrelson of drinking beer and tequila since 5am that morning.
He said he had a single beer and a pint of scotch after joining her around noon.
The couple were treated for their injuries and sent to York County Prison.
They're charged with one count of felony aggravated assault and two counts of simple assault.
Stambaugh's bail was set at $70,000, while Harrelson's was set at $30,000.
Candice Glover defeated Kree Harrison, winning the 12th season of American Idol.

The Feuding Kleptocrats

True, but one would never know that listening to the M$M.
At least Rupert Murdoch tweeted more truth than his FAUX Noise channel does.
How come congress never comes out says the *people of Gaza* have a right to defend themselves? Oh, yeah, that's right, Palestinians don't have a powerful lobby like AIPAC that can make or break elections. Maybe storm victims should start a lobby. Then maybe they'd see the money and support we've been sending to Israel all these years.
I stumbled across a cool website the other day that makes it really easy for me to shop non-GMO, especially not having a car. It's supe...

Virgin neighbour finds a craving for cock
Monday mornings, I hate Mondays i thought to myself as i lay in bed. I got out of bed and did a few push ups knowing that it would raise my tempertaure and hopefully be enough to get a sick day.
"Sean!" Mum yelled, "Wake up"
"Aww" i groaned, loud enough so she would hear.
"Whats wrong?" She asked doubtfully knowing that since i had obtained my drivers license i had been trying to get off sick for the last few weeks.
"My head, it really hurts" I said, trying to sound sick
"You're not just saying this to get out of school are you?" She asked.
"No Mum i swear I've got a real bad headache, can i just sleep for another thirty minutes and see how i feel" i asked knowing that a yes would probably result in me getting the day off.
"Hmmm" She thought for a minute before replying "Ok I'll let you sleep and I'll wake you before i go to work to see if you're feeling any better"
"Ok Mum. Thanks"
She walked away and i smiled, success i thought instead of going to school I've got a whole day of watching TV and sleeping, every 17 year olds who is in thier final year of school dreams. I returned to sleep for another 30 minutes before Mum came back in.
"How are you feeling?" She asked
"Aww, it still hurts" I groaned
"Ok, I call the school and tell them you wont be coming in, but you need to call Tilly and tell her you're not going to school" She said
"Ok Mum Thanks" I said
I laid in bed untill i heard the car leave, finally the house was mine. I got my phone and searched through the numbers before i cam across Tilly's. Tilly lived across the road from me she was 14 and in grade 9. I've never really liked Tilly, she is one of the most beatiful 14 year olds i have ever seen. She has brown shoulder length hair and big green eyes, Her legs are long and smooth and the connect to a nice little ass that is the pefect size. But her best assest would have to be her tits, no one her age has nicer tits than her, infact probably most girls from school would not compare to her. But Tillys problem was her pesonality, She was a spolit snob who was always trying to out-do everyone and always being a bitch to people she thought wern't as good as her. This was enough for me to not like her but since i have known her since i was 5 andour parents were good friends i had to take her to school.
I called her up "Hello" She answered
"Hey, Tilly its Sean, umm im just calling to let you know that i wontbe able to take you to school today because im sick" I told her
"Ohh, Thats Ok I'm not going to school either" She said
"Ok, well See-ya"
I hung up, There thats all i need to do for the day now i can just lay around the house and be as lazy as i want.
Half the day had passed and i had done nothing, I turend the TV to see what was on. Nothing was on except for a movie that looked better than anything else. I sat down in the chair watching the movie when a sex scene appered on the movie. My cock began to stir so i relased it from my pants and beagn to stroke it. I was stroking feverishly when i heard a noise from the side door, I quickly turned my head and i was shocked to see Tilly. I tried to cover up my cock but it was too late.
"Oh God, Sorry" She said as she turned her head away and stated to walk away
"Fuck!" I said "Tilly wait" I put my cock back in my pants and began to follow her. "Tilly, come back I'm sorry" I called after her but she walked home.
I went back inside embarrsed that i had been sprung but at the ame time i was glad she saw me. I decided to head over to her house an hour later to apologise. I knocked on the door. "Hello" She said as she opened the door.
"Tilly, I'm sorry for before i didn't expect anyone to see me" I told her
"No I'm sorry Sean i shouldn't of reacted like that, I was just shocked thats all" She said
"So..." I paused
"Yes?" She asked
"Did you like what you saw?" i aksed jokingly
She laughed "Sean!" she said as she hit me across the arm.
"Why did you come over anyway?" I asked her
"I'm bored" She said "And I thought you might not really be sick so i came over to check, and i guess i was right"
"Well you were right. How about you come over now I'm bored aswell, we can watch a movie"
"Ok, she said I'll be over in a few minutes" She told me
I was sitting at home waiting for Tilly to come over when she arrived. She looked beatiful, she was wearing small tight khaki shorts and a whit singlet midriff top taht showed off her beatiful flat stomach and her perfect breasts.
"Wow, looking good" I said
"Thankyou Sean, I dress to impress" She said joking
"I can tell"
We watched a movie for a bit before we got bored and started to talk.
"Sean. Do you have a girlfriend?" She asked me
"No unfortunately i dont. What about you, whos the lucky man in your life?" I aksed
"Haha, I don't have one" She told me
"Fuck off Tilly. I've seen the guys follow you at school" I told her
"Yeah they follow me but I don't like them they're just boys." She said
"So you just Fuck em' "
"No! I'm still a virgin. Infact your dick was the first one I've ever seen that wasn't in a porno"
"Hahaha. When do you watch porno?" I asked her
"I watched it at a friends one cuz' none of us knew what they looked like" She said
"Fair enough, not as good as my show though" I said jokingly
"Sean, can i look at it again?" She asked as she shuffled across so she was sitting next to me.
"Are you serious?" I asked back
"Please" she said
"If you want" I told her
I pulled the zipper on my pants down and then undid the button on my boxer shorts.
"There it is" I told her
Tilly slid over and told me to stand up, she then undidn my pants and my boxers and they slid off on to the floor
"I need a better view" She said
I sat back down and watched her and wondered to myslef what she was thinking. Then tilly grabbed my cock and stated to jack me off. She continued this untill my dick had reached its full 7inches.
"Do you like that?" She asked
"Fuck yeah!" I said
"Then you'll definately like this" She told me
She got off the couch and positioned herself between my legs, she then looked up at me and smiled before she put my cock in her mouth. I grabbed her hair as she was bobbing he head up and down on my cock.
"Use your tounge more" I told her
She started lickin under my cock while giving me the blowjob
"That's fucking great! Play with my balls" I told her
She continued to suck my cock and play with my balls for another 5 minutes untill i shouted
"I'm going to cum Tilly"
She stopped sucking and started masturbating me again within seconds i had exploded all over her hand.
"That was so good, except you should learn to swallow cum" I told her
"Want me to return the favour?" I asked
"Please!" She said
I wasted no time, i got her off her knees and back on te couch where i proceeded in kissing her while i took her top off. I started to work my way down her body kissing her neck before I reached her tits. I took her nipple into my mouth and started to suck, I could hear her groaning then she said
"That feels good"
"You're tits are fucking perfect" I told her before i went back to work on them. I continued to suck her nipple while my hand reached down and undid her shorts. I started to rub her pussy lips through the fabric of her underwear. Her groins became louder and more frequent finally i slid my fingers down he underwear and beagn to rub her pussy lips. I slipped one finger inside her pussy and began to move it around. I pushed a second finger in and began thrusting them in and out of her pussy. She was groaning real loud and real frequent and she began to squirm, i knew she was about to cum so i pulled my fngers out from iniside of her.
"Dont stop!" She told me
I just looked up at her and smiled as i pushed her back down on the couch. I slid down so my face was only a few inches from her underwear. I lifted her legs up as i slid her undies off, i was greeted to the sight of her moist pusyy which had a few short brown pubic hairs at the top. I placed my mouth on her pussy and started to lick up her juices.
"Oh FUCK!" She yelled
I continued to eat her out ocassionally flicking my tongue in and out of her pussy and paying special attention to her clit. I reached up and played with her breasts while my mouth worked on her clit and pussy. I continued this for a few more minutes before i felt her squirm again.
"FUCK! FUCK! FUCK!" She yelled
With that she came in my mouth and i licked up all the juices that came out.
I finished cleaning her up before i positioned myself between her hips and began to kiss her. Our tongues played with eachothers for a few minutes before she said
"Fuck Sean i have to go, my Mum will be home soon"
"Can't you stay for a bit more?" I asked her as i kissed her neck
"No I've really got to go" She said as she stood up and stated putting her clothes back on
"Fair enough" I said
I walked her to the door and opened it to let her out
"Sean" She said "Can we do this again?" She asked
"I hope so" I said as i pulled her body into mine and began to make out with her. We kissed for a few minutes before she broke it off.
"I have to go Sean before someone sees us" She said as she gave me a peck on the lips and walked off home. I watched her as she walked away and as she turned around and gave me a wave and i thought to myself. "I can't wait to fuck her!"

The 25-year-old lock decided to walk away from one of European rugby's most successful club sides to join a side which has only once managed to make it into the knockout stages of the Heineken Cup because he believed it would enhance his international career.
And from what he has seen so far, Hamilton is sure that he has made the right decision.
"It's a hard-working club from top to bottom," said Hamilton, who missed Scotland's summer trip to Argentina because he needed surgery on his shoulder.
"I've been in training for a month with the young lads and you can see why the team was successful last year and will be even more successful next year.
"These young guys are putting so much effort in that they are going to push the senior players all the way.
"I have come from Leicester, which has been a big club for years and years, but it seems to me that anything Edinburgh is missing in terms of experience and playing numbers is more than compensated for in work ethic and passion."
He continued: "I want to come up here and prove myself. I want to earn the right to play for Scotland.
"I know that a lot of people think that I've been parachuted into the team and I've not earned my stripes yet. I can understand that because people are passionate about who represents their country, and I want to show that I have earned the right to have that honour.'
"I'm pretty sure that Edinburgh as a club are going to help me to do that. This is a team which has the potential to go really well in Europe.
"Edinburgh maybe should have gone further in the Heineken Cup last season. They had that game against Toulouse which they should have won. So they are performing at that level and now it's a case of getting results at that level. I think we're ready to do that as a team."

It dictates that planets are formed from the accretion disc around a young star, but it also dictates that a star continues to feed off the same material as it grows and matures. So how to both bodies grow using a limited supply of elementary particles? Advertisement According to new research out of the ALMA radio telescope observatory in the Atacama Desert, the two celestial objects essentially share the resources between them—at least that's how a newly discovered system 450 light years away is doing it. The star sucks down the inner portion of the disc—which causes a tell-tale stream of carbon gas to flow back to the system's center—while the planets form in the outer zone.To see what ALMA actually saw, head on over to PopSci.

Food rarely comes up when we talk about the mind and brain, even though what you eat determines how effectively your brain operates. It is so obvious that it is often overlooked. The most common food errors, like skipping breakfast or self-medicating with food, can sabotage the best of ADHD treatment plans.
If you do not eat properly, you can become distracted, impulsive, and restless. You look like you have ADD, even if you do not. Therefore, ADD treatment — like any effort to lead a healthy life — must consider a good diet an essential component of a proper regimen.
Here are 12 food suggestions that you or your child should follow every day. I do.
> BALANCE YOUR DIET. The meaning of "balanced" changes as we learn more. Omega-3s are now part of a balanced diet, as the USDA Food Pyramid itself undergoes reconstruction. Most authorities recommend less starch and flour-based foods than they used to, and more fruits and vegetables. Protein ought to be included in every meal — especially breakfast — if possible. Eat fresh foods, and avoid junk or anything that come in a box, bag, wrapper, package, or tube.
Steer clear of anything with additives or preservatives, as well as trans-fatty acids and high-fructose syrup. Skip foods with ingredients you can't pronounce — long words that usually end in "ite" or "ate."
> GO WITH C. It is best to get vitamin C from fruits and vegetables, since pills are not as effective as vitamin C found in whole foods. Vitamin C helps modulate the synapse action of dopamine, a key neurotransmitter needed in treating ADHD.
> PROTECT YOUR BRAIN. Eat blueberries, grape seed extract, blue-green algae, almonds, cashews, walnuts, broccoli, wild salmon or bluefish, sweet potatoes, pumpkin, meat, cumin, turmeric, spinach, watercress, and avocado, as well as olive oil and flaxseed oil. These foods are premium gasoline for your brain.
> GET TESTED FOR ZINC. Some research suggests a possible correlation between low levels of zinc and the symptoms of ADD. Don't add zinc without the supervision of a doctor. Adding or subtracting minerals indiscriminately from your diet could lead to problems.
> TAKE A GOOD MULTIVITAMIN. Consider taking a daily multivitamin supplement that contains vitamin C, vitamin E, B-12, selenium, and folic acid. A safe way of avoiding vitamin and mineral overload is to take a multivitamin that contains the recommended daily allowance of key vitamins and minerals.
> CURB YOUR SWEET TOOTH. We seem to live on sugar, inviting all kinds of negative health outcomes, from tooth decay to obesity to diabetes to impaired immune function to lethargy to cognitive dulling. The more you cut back on refined sugar, the better.
> WATCH THE CARBS. Refined carbohydrates (which contain hardly any fiber) stimulate the release of dopamine, just as stimulant medications and adrenaline do. This means that people with ADHD get in the habit of turning to carbs to get that dopamine squirt we all love. Beware of that quart of ice cream at midnight, or the extra large Hershey Bar, or even the soda or fruit juice. Obesity awaits. Carbs cause insulin to be dumped into your system. This causes a drop in blood sugar, making you feel sluggish. This can lead to a craving for more carbs.
> DITCH GLUTEN AND DAIRY. Many of my ADHD patients improve on gluten-free diets. At the suggestion of my friend and colleague, Peter Martone, a chiropractor, I tried it myself. It made me feel better, and I lost 20 pounds, to boot. If you were tested for gluten sensitivity, and found that you do not have celiac disease, you may still do better to go gluten-free. Many experts believe that a pure vegan diet is the healthiest. I can't give up cheese, but if you can give up dairy, you might fare better. Try anything that works, as long as it is safe and legal.
> LOOK FOR OTHER FOOD ALLERGIES. Many people with ADHD have undiagnosed food allergies. If these are detected and dealt with, life can change dramatically for the better. It's worth getting tested for food allergies, but make sure to find a reliable allergist. Some "professionals" sell their own proprietary remedies for various "sensitivities." They cost a lot of money but do not do much good.
> DRIVE YOURSELF TO DRINK — water, that is. Water is good for you in many ways. It is estimated that 75 percent of us are chronically dehydrated, which can lead to decreased focus. Water makes up 75 percent of your brain. It's not hard to see that not drinking enough could make your ADD symptoms worse.
> MONITOR EATING HABITS. ADHDers are at greater risk for developing eating disorders than the general public. That's because people with ADHD often turn to food as a source of stimulating conflict. They do battle with food, and find it engrossing. Remember, people with ADHD are always on the lookout for focus, even if it is obtained in negative ways. As unpleasant as bingeing and purging can be, the bulimic cycle is one way to focus. The same goes for anorexia, which takes on a life of its own.

Read Whole Story
Dear fundamentalist Christian readers: As per your advice, I am composing what could potentially become my online dating profile in my search for a wife, but I need your input. I need to know more about the gay people who have chosen to be in opposite-sex relationships.
Let me say this as a fellow evangelical: Brothers and sisters, whether you support or oppose same-sex relationships, one fact is undeniable. No ministry can turn same-sex-attracted people into opposite-sex-attracted people. It simply doesn't happen.
A new poll reveals that a record number of Americans now consider themselves unaffiliated with any particular religion. If you want to understand the reasons behind this trend, read the letter that Twin Cities Catholic Archbishop John Nienstedt sent to the mother of a gay son.
The hunt for a church is both time-consuming and emotionally vexing. Luckily, I found a church I love. I have been attending it for quite some time now, but it wasn't until recently that I took the next step and signed up for a small Bible study group.
Here is my message to my Christian friends: If you love us so much and support us wholeheartedly, then stand up for us. Do not allow the fanatics to taint your goodness. That is precisely what is happening.
Neil Patrick Harris asked in his Tony opening number, "What if life were more like theater?" Well, one answer to that question is that, if life were more like theater, gays and religion would coexist in harmony. Kristin Chenoweth, the brilliantly talented Broadway star, exemplifies this idea.
Visitors to Outsports recently may have thought they had stumbled across the Focus on the Family website by accident, given all the comments by anti-gay religious zealots.
A lawmaker says something anti-gay while hiding behind the Bible, our community demands an apology, the lawmaker refuses to back down, and finally the lawmaker is looked upon by some as a hero for supposedly standing up for Biblical principal.
Fornication was one thing that both married and celibate Christians could agree upon. Broadly understood, "fornication" covered all sorts of behaviors that seemed not to fit into the other two categories. When "fornicators" talk back, it's bound to trigger a crisis for everyone.
Recently, Oprah Winfrey sat down with Joel Osteen, the pastor of the largest church in America. When Oprah asked Pastor Osteen if he thought gay people would enter heaven, he answered, "Yes, if they repent for their sins."
Your friends blew it; they definitely proved themselves, at least during that car ride, to be your faux friends. They made your coming out to them about them: about their needs, their comfort level, their convictions.

After a failed attempt at a merger, Martin Marietta Materials has launched a hostile $4.8 billion offer for its rival Vulcan Materials Co., according to the Wall Street Journal. The deal combines the two largest suppliers of construction aggregates -- one of the chief ingredients of concrete -- in the nation.
The all-stock offer arrived on Vulcan's doorstep on Dec. 11 from the smaller of the two firms, Martin Marietta. The Raleigh, N.C.-based company is offering half a share for each Vulcan share, a 9% premium based on Vulcan's Nov. 9 closing prices.
Vulcan, based in Birmingham, Ala., said in a prepared statement that its board is "carefully" reviewing the offer and will make a recommendation within 10 business days. It advised its shareholders not to sell their stakes before that time.
Martin Marietta's offer would combine the directors from both companies to serve on one board. Donald James, chairman and CEO of Vulcan, would serve as chairman; but C. Howard Nye, president and CEO of Martin Marietta Materials, would hold the post of president and CEO.
Martin Marietta is the second-largest supplier of crushes stoned, sand and aggregates in the United States. It also sells asphalt and concrete in certain geographic regions.
Vulcan is the country's largest producer of construction aggregates and a major producer of other construction materials, including asphalt and ready-mixed concrete and a leading producer of cement in Florida.

Hello i have nexus 7 2013 LTE .. i didnt receive android 4.4.4 .. but yesterday received android 4.4.3 why??? when will i receive 4.4.4 !!
I still haven't gotten even 4.4.3, so yeah. Plus from what I've been reading, it just introduces new bugs.
The LTE version takes longer to get updated... We really don't know why. We think it has to do something with the carriers. 4.4.3 took a long time to be pushed to the LTE version. 3-4 weeks for most people. Just be patient or flash a custom ROM. Thank you.

Stamps Have Canadian Questions
Posted By Shane Hoopfer On Jun 19 2010 @ 1:03 pm In Calgary Stampeders | No Comments
Just a couple weeks away from the start on the 2010 season for the Calgary Stampeders who are looking to improve upon last years 10-7-1 record and a loss in the West Final against the Saskatchewan Roughriders have some big questions on offense and definitely in the kicking game which relates to Canadian Content.
For the uninitiated in the Canadian game. The CFL has a roster limit of 42 active players of which 20 must be Canadian born. And moving forward the teams require 7 of those Canadian players to be starters. Most teams generally have more than 7 starting but those are the limits.
Which brings us to the Stampeders who have always had the luxury of a Canadian dominated OL and a kicker and punter who were Canadian. Starting at kicker Sandro Deangelis who is the best kicker in the CFL left in the off season as a free agent to be closer to his home and is now kicking for the Hamilton Tiger Cats. The Stamps addressed this by drafting a Canadian kicker Rob Maver in the 1st round of the CFL draft. Maver has looked good in training camp but he will have to prove he can be money when the games count like Sandro was.
The Offensive line was decimated in the off season with Dimitri Tsoumpas heading to the Miami Dolphins of the NFL, along with the retirements of Jeff Pilon and Jesse Newman there are some big shoes to fill in regards to protecting QB Henry Burris.
Injuries to Ryan Thelwell and the retirement of Brett Ralph have hurt the content ration as well for the Stampeders in the WR core but should be less of an issue filling in spots as WR is traditionally a position where the Stampeders have always been able to find Canadian talent.
If the Canadian Content doesn't hurt the Stamps too much they should be alright as the Offense looks to be just as high powered as in years past. the Defense may be improved. And as long as the kicking game doesn't fall apart Calgary should be competitive in 2010.
We'll take a closer look at the Offense and Defense before the season kicks off and of course predictions for what will happen in the league!
Have a good one!

Nerds are wonderful, and so are nerd jokes. Nerdery encompasses a near-infinite panoply of reference points, minutiae, and trivia for the comedically inclined. Want to make a joke about C++? You'll have a captive audience. Deep Space Nine? Have at it, intrepid humorist.
But beware: The great potential power of nerd humor comes with equally great risk. For if you make a mistake, omission, or even minor inexactitude in your reference, your audience will rip you apart like a pack of hounds. The nerds giveth, and the nerds eviscerate you if you mess up.

Mexico, May 13, 2014 -- Moody's Latin America Calificadora de Riesgo ("Moody's") has assigned a first time Corporate Family Rating of Caa1 on its Global Scale and Ba1.ar on its Argentina National Scale to Telecom Argentina S.A. (Telecom). The outlook is stable.
The Caa1 Global Local Currency and the Ba1.ar Argentina National Scale corporate family ratings mainly reflect Telecom strong credit metrics in comparison to peers in this rating category and sound capital structure with very low debt, being one the three main players in Argentina in both fixed and mobile services, said Moody's VP-Senior Analyst Gabriel Vigueras.
The assigned rating also takes into consideration Telecom's track record of sustainable growth over the last few years, in the back of a challenging economic and political environment in Argentina. The company has maintained Debt/Ebitda ratio of 0.2 time as adjusted by Moody's throughout the FY2010 to FY2013 period, considering a minor debt denominated in Guaranies equivalent to approx (USD 36 mln) with average maturity of 3.8 years and operating leases of about USD 228 mln denominated in ARS. In addition, the ratings reflect Telecom Argentina positive free cash flow generation and its adequate level of liquidity supported by its cash position of ARS 5.2 bln (approx USD 800 mln) as of FY13.
The Caa1/Ba1.ar ratings are mainly constrained by (i) the highly regulated nature of the Telecom industry in Argentina; (ii) the potential for increasing competition; and (iii) the challenging macroeconomic conditions in the country, including low expected growth, high inflation and currency depreciation, which could pressure operating performance and hamper business growth opportunities for participants. The ratings also take into account the company's limitation to add further products to its offer as per guidelines from the regulator (impossibility to enter into Pay TV as has been the trend for most of Telecom incumbents participants in the industry worldwide) and heavy reliance in the mobile business with a limited availability of further spectrum allocation from the government. This is a concern given the delay in spectrum auctions and the cap to 50 MHz per operator per area. Moreover, the only spectrum planned to be auctioned over the last years never took place and even when it was going to be assigned to a government-owned entity called Argentina Satellite Solutions Corporation (ARSAT), the assignment has not been confirmed yet. Further spectrum allocation is crucial in Telecom's mobile business, particularly if smartphones and 4G extension are at the cornerstone of its business strategy in the following years.
Telecom Argentina Caa1 local currency rating reflects its global default and loss expectation, while the Ba1.ar national scale rating is based on the standing of Telecom Argentina's credit quality relative to its domestic peers. Moody's National Scale Ratings (NSRs) are intended to be relative measures of creditworthiness among debt issues and issuers within a country, enabling market participants to better differentiate relative risks. NSRs in Argentina are designated by the ".ar" suffix. Issuers or issues rated Ba1.ar present the average creditworthiness relative to other domestic issuers. NSRs differ from global scale ratings in that they are not globally comparable to the full universe of Moody's rated entities, but only with other rated entities within the same country.
The stable outlook for Telecom reflects Moody's view that the creditworthiness of the company will remain sound over the next quarters, with acceptable liquidity and low leverage.
An upgrade is unlikely in the near term. Longer term, upward pressure could emerge if Argentina government's Caa1 bond rating was upgraded. In addition, an upgrade of the ratings could result from a continued strengthening of Telecom Argentina's top line during 2014, at least close to inflation levels, while maintaining its operating margins at or above 31% as adjusted by Moody's and leverage below 0.2 times. Additionally, a more predictable outlook for economic activity in Argentina would be important for a rating upgrade.
Moody's cautions that a rating downgrade of the sovereign would likely result in negative rating actions for Telecom Argentina in the absence of any significant change in its underlying credit quality. A downgrade could result from a significant increase in debt, particularly if denominated in US dollars. Negative pressure could also arise from an increase debt / EBITDA ratio consistently above 2 times.
Headquartered in Buenos Aires, Telecom Argentina, S.A. is one of the largest private sector companies in Argentina in terms of revenues and number of employees. Telecom Argentina has a non-expiring license to provide fixed-line telecommunications services in the country, and it also offers other telephone-related services such as international long-distance, data transmission, IT solutions outsourcing and Internet services. Further, the company also provides mobile telecommunications , which represent the bulk of the revenues, and international wholesale services. Telecom Argentina generated ARS 27 Billion in revenues and 31.4 % of Moody's adjusted EBITDA margins in 2013. Over tha period, the company generated 4% of its revenues in Paraguay, where it offers mobile services through an LTE network since 2010.
Telecom Argentina share capital is comprised as follow: Nortel Inversora (51% class A, 3.74% class B), Floating(45.23% class B and ADS) being the balance class C shares. In turn, Nortel is owned by Sofora Telecomunicaciones which major shareholders are Telecom Italia (Ba1, neg) 68% and Argentina W (Werthein Group) 32%.

Moody's National Scale Credit Ratings (NSRs) are intended as relative measures of creditworthiness among debt issues and issuers within a country, enabling market participants to better differentiate relative risks. NSRs differ from Moody's global scale credit ratings in that they are not globally comparable with the full universe of Moody's rated entities, but only with NSRs for other rated debt issues and issuers within the same country. NSRs are designated by a ".nn" country modifier signifying the relevant country, as in ".mx" for Mexico.

Remember the color conundrum foal? 2 Attachment(s) The filly that also has the same sire as my colt. (My mare was still in foal when I posted the thread "Any ideas on possible foal color?) Here are some updated pics of her. Still thinking smoky cream? Attachment 176970 Attachment 176978 |
Yup, I still do think she is smoky cream. She has that very mushroomy tone to her coat still. |
Agreed^^^ Posted via Mobile Device |
Ok, thanks! The BO keeps calling her a "carmello" *__* |
Posted via Mobile Device |
if both parents are cream carriers and carry the recessive chestnut gene she could very easily be cremello instead of smokey cream - between cremello, perlino and smokey cream the only true definite way to tell is genetic testing or ( if you'd rather be surprised ) putting them to a chestnut in the future and see what the resulting foal is. If the foal turns up black based ( smokey black or buckskin ) then you have a smokey cream ( as long as the chestnut is tested to be strictly chestnut with no other modifiers ) |

NHL revises its offer to prevent a lockout
On Wednesday afternoon, most of the Bruins players were traveling by train to New York.
At approximately the same time, their employer was participating in drafting the NHL's latest proposal to prevent a lockout.
Owner Jeremy Jacobs was part of an exclusive NHL negotiating committee that helped commissioner Gary Bettman assemble a proposal for a six-year collective bargaining agreement. Murray Edwards, who owns the Calgary Flames, was the only other owner involved.
It may not be enough to prevent a lockout.
"We've been clear about this, certainly to the union, going back to November," Bettman told reporters in New York. "We're not prepared to open without a new deal."
According to NHL Players Association executive director Don Fehr, the NHL's latest proposal would grant players 49 percent of hockey-related revenue in the first year. By the term's sixth and final year, the players would receive 47 percent.
The NHL had previously offered a proposal in which players would receive 46 percent of HRR in the first year. In its initial proposal in July, the NHL designated player share at 43 percent. The players currently receive 57 percent of HRR, a percentage they are loath to cede.
If the NHLPA declines the NHL's proposal before the current CBA's expiration at midnight Saturday, the league will withdraw the offer.
"With every day, we continue to experience damage to the game and the business of the game," Bettman said. "What we're trying to do now is stem that damage.
"What we would be prepared to do now to make a deal before there is extensive damage is not the same that we'll be prepared to do when we get to the point where we've suffered damage."
The proposal was in response to an offer made by the NHLPA during Wednesday's bargaining session. Fehr, special counsel Steve Fehr, and several members of the NHLPA's negotiating committee attended the meeting. Vancouver Canucks goalie Cory Schneider, a Marblehead native and former Boston College netminder, was one of the seven players present.
According to Bettman, the NHLPA's proposal offered little the owners would prefer.
"The proposal was really not much different, other than a couple things around the edges, than the last proposal they had made," said Bettman. "Which we had indicated was clearly not acceptable."
The players are adamant in not accepting salary rollbacks. They have cited the 24 percent cut they received following the 2004-05 lockout. Their proposal, a four-year term, centers around slowing salary growth and participating in revenue sharing.
Don Fehr did not offer any details on the NHLPA's proposal other than to note its foundation had not changed from previous iterations.
"I'm not going to categorize our proposal further except to say that our proposal was made with the same principles we have always had in mind," Fehr said. "Those are that we didn't see any reason, given seven years of record revenue growth and the enormous concessions the players made the last time, to have an absolute reduction in player salaries.
"They are prepared to have their share fall over time as revenues grow. They hope to partner with large-revenue teams in terms of providing whatever assistance to franchises may be called for, generally under the rubric of revenue sharing."
Wednesday's session, according to Bettman, did not include any discussions regarding peripheral issues such as length of contracts, arbitration rights, or service time required for unrestricted free agency.
On Wednesday night, Fehr briefed the players at a New York hotel. Further meetings between the players and the NHLPA are scheduled for Thursday. The NHL's Board of Governors is also scheduled to meet Thursday. No formal bargaining sessions have been scheduled before the CBA is due to expire. However, both Bettman and Fehr said talks could continue until then.
If a lockout takes place, it's unlikely that training camp will begin on time. The Bruins are scheduled to open camp Sept. 21; their season opener is Oct. 11 against Philadelphia.
With the start of camp in danger, the Bruins took advantage of the NHL's expanded waiver period. On Wednesday, they placed Garnet Exelby, Christian Hanson, Jamie Tardif, and Trent Whitfield on waivers. Assuming the players clear, they will be assigned to Providence prior to the CBA's expiration. Providence opens camp Sept. 28.
All four are signed to two-way contracts. They were long shots to open the regular season on the varsity roster.
But in the event of a standard training camp, the four players would have most likely dressed for several preseason games prior to AHL assignment. The uncertainty regarding the preseason and regular season accelerated their assignment.
The Bruins may have more business to address prior to the CBA's expiration. In a five-day span, they re-signed Brad Marchand and Tyler Seguin.
Both would have been restricted free agents following 2012-13. Milan Lucic is also scheduled to reach RFA status after 2012-13. General manager Peter Chiarelli and Gerry Johansson, Lucic's agent, declined to comment regarding a similar extension.
No transactions are expected to be allowed during a lockout.

"America isn't a country — it's a business." The quote comes from Andrew Dominik and Brad Pitt's new crime film "Killing Them Softly," which premiered in Cannes for the public on Tuesday and is already being dubbed an anti-capitalist screed. The L.A. Times' Steven Zeitchik even wrote of the film, "It is arguably the first post-Occupy film — or, perhaps, what the documentary "Inside Job" might look like if it was a fictional feature."
At a Cannes Film Festival press conference, Dominik said that America is largely about making money, and that that went double for Hollywood, according to Zeitchik, who argues, "Dominik's larger notion is that U.S. capitalism is deeply flawed, and that government, whether Democrat or Republican, has let down its people."
"We were certainly at the apex of the mortgage loan debacle," Pitt said today in Cannes. "I felt that I was reading a gangster film and it wasn't until the very end that it coalesced for me as far what the direction of the film is pointing to overall — that this microcosm is actually saying something about the macro world."
Pitt even said that it was "criminal that there still haven't been any criminal repercussions" for those who caused the financial crisis.
"I always feel that crime films are about capitalism," said Dominik. ''It's the only genre where it's perfectly accepted for all the characters to be motivated by a desire for money only."
And as I argued yesterday, Dominik's film isn't the only one in Cannes infused with concerns that should resonate with the 99%.

Big Finish has announced a one-day sale of Season One of Doctor Who: The Companion Chronicles on October 22, suitably dubbing the event: The Companion Chronicles Day.
For one day only – the first season of the audio series will be available at massively discounted prices, only from www.bigfinish.com.
Each individual CD can be purchased from the website for £5.00, while the entire season of four stories is just £16.00.
"The Companion Chronicles has been a success story for us," says executive producer Jason Haigh-Ellery, "and this one-day sale should allow those who've never heard one to jump aboard and find out what the fuss is about. Sadly, due to contractual reasons, we're only able to offer this first series on CD – there will be no downloads of the stories."
If you're not familiar with The Companion Chronicles series from Big Finish, these are best described as limited cast adventures, often with the star relating the story in character.
