The snow overlaying the 2016 Volkswagen Passat parked in entrance the Vermont hotel was a becoming reminder of the winter of VW's discontent. As the degrees of consolation and safety, and the services accessible to drivers and passengers of private automobiles continues to widen, so too do their expectations of this stuff when travelling by public transport. Circulation area design and security while negotiating inside and exterior approach spaces is augmented by an intense focus on person entry, comfort, connectivity and visibility (and indeed privateness).
Slovakia, the third-largest automotive producer in central Europe, is among the quickest growing automotive markets within the Central & Jap European Area (CEE), with the trade manufacturing growing almost two-fold (93%) in 2007 from the previous 12 months.

Sculpture and Painting
It is said that we hold five generations past within our bodies. My mother Helen was an artist, as was my Grandmother Adele. As a teenager my Mother was very generous with her art materials and let me experiment with her oil paints. To this day it is still my preferred painting medium.
I started painting again 20 years ago after the life of a Graphic Designer, which saw me work as an Art Director and designer in the best publishing houses and record companies in Sydney and London.
The common thread through all my paintings is the use of light and shade – Chiaroscuro. Light is so fleeting and abstract that if I focus on it for one brief moment in time, I can capture it for people to see.
My subject matter is the natural world and interiors. I'm interested in the interplay of light and the abstract shadows cast by sunlight falling across tree trunks and woodlands and the interplay of sunlight in everyday settings.
I've always done life drawing so my sculptures are just an extension to these drawings. I work from the faster, more dynamic one-minute poses to the longer held reclining poses. Drawing the model from every angle helps you understand the full spatial awareness and look for the centre of gravity that anchors the pose.
Working with the human body is a constant challenge and always inspiring. My emphasis on the body is in its fluidity of continuous line like the constant flow of energy through the body. I deliberately discard the detail and let the clay bend to the model in front of me.

What you should know about Closed POD Regulations…
Closed PODs are protected by many state laws and regulations, but also by the federal Public Readiness and Emergency Preparedness (PREP) Act, which protects everyone involved in a Closed POD chain once a national disaster has been declared. The PREP Act is detailed by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) in the PowerPoint presentation below:
The PREP Act protects all government entities and employees (federal, state, tribal and local). It also protects all "Program Planners," which includes all Closed POD partners who are assisting local governments in distributing medications under this program.
The only liability exception which is not covered is for willful misconduct, which is very rare and very hard to prove.

Celtics Send Extra Draft Pick to Cavs to Complete Irving-Thomas Trade
The blockbuster trade between the Boston Celtics and Cleveland Cavaliers that was in danger of falling apart is now back on as the Celtics have agreed to give up a second draft pick as compensation for Isaiah Thomas' injured hip. No doctor has told me anything different than that". That was after initial reports that the Cavs were going to ask for Jaylen Brown or Jayson Tatum , the third picks in the 2016 and 2017 NBA Drafts, respectively.

News & Announcements
We Are Members of Privia Medical Group
As of December 16, 2014, we are proud members of Privia Medical Group!
Proud to be Part of Privia Medical Group
Pace & Leatherwood, MDs is a proud member of Privia Medical Group. The best doctors in our community have joined together to form Privia Medical Group (PMG), a multi-specialty, high-performance medical group that puts patients first. Our physicians are united by the mission of providing better, more coordinated care for their patients.
To learn more about Privia Medical Group and find other Privia doctors, please visit our website.
Not sure if everyone finds this an important factor when selecting a local doctor, but the fact that Dr. Pace donates time to help at Health Partners (the clinic for families without sufficient financial means) is extremely important to me. The medical profession in general is way too embedded in costs and not enough in compassion. The fact that I can support corporate compassion as I pursue my personal health care means I fully endorse Dr. Pace as a committed doctor.

Note explicitly defined indt8 is defined as packed numeric 8.0. my8date is defined as 10 alpha which expects *ISO format.
d WkDate S D
c monitor
c *USA Move indt8 WkDate
c *ISO Move WkDate my8date

c on-error *file
c endmon
Using on-error with no parameters will monitor for all error messages (similar to CPF0000 in your CL procedures).
It is also possible to monitor for specific status errors. *Program (program-error status codes) range is 00100 to 00999. *File (file-error status codes) range is 01000 to 09999.
c monitor
c on-error 00202
One caveat that might be obvious but one should use 'monitor' judiciously because many errors need to be brought to the attention of the programmer and not simply ignored. Once the error is known the programmer may then want to add code to handle the situation more gracefully.
You can research the actual INFDS codes using the IBM Knowledge Center:

What is Your Communication LifeStyle?
As I waited at the stop sign for the children to get off the bus, I noticed a mother with a stroller and a sleeping baby waiting at the bus stop. I was only about 15 feet from the front of the bus and could see parents standing around. This mother was holding her smart phone with her head bent downward and at times would stop and then text or enter a number and then the phone went back up to her ear. I never saw her check on the baby in the stroller nor did she look up. Soon a cute little light skinned boy with curly brown hair about 5 or 6 years old jumped off the bus and waved a paper with a painting at his mother. Mom paid no attention to the boy so he grabbed her leg and shouted "look mom look mom"
She looked down at him and shouted "I told you not to talk to me when I'm on the phone."
My heart sank and I wanted to cry as I'm sure that the little boy wanted to do. What an ideal time for communication. This amazing transition time when a child is enthusiastic about something he has created and at the same time happy to be getting home from school. Was this a dysfunctional communication moment? It certainly appeared that way. Would this be the base to poor communication for the next few minutes, hours and maybe even days?
The one major aspect of being a human being is that we are able to communicate orally. Have we forgotten to be thankful for this gift of true conversation? With the advent of smart phones we have a new addiction. Research shows that the average person with a smartphone texts an average of 100 time a day wow! This type of communication determines our lifestyle and our lifestyle determines our communication.
If we have an addiction of any kind such as shopping, drinking, drugs, sickness, foods whatever,
our typical conversation will include words, phrases and stories related to our addiction. Doesn't sound like a learning listener and quality conversation to me. Therefore my challenge to you as a Blog reader is to look at everyone you speak with, eye to eye and belly to belly. This way you will be listening to the other person and as a reward you will learn something from what they say. So add to your communication lifestyle the ability to listen with your eyes.
You can improve your communication by helping yourself become more enlightened after hearing me speak at your next conference. Call now for more information or for a one on one Speech Coaching session.203 405 3972.

Everyone who's been in the industry a while must take his or her share of the collective blame for all the stuff we have inflicted on people.
Of course, we thought it was a good look at the time. 'Let's solve those horrible reflections on your computer with some Cat 2 fittings'. 'These SON floodlights will deter burglars and vandals'. And the greatest lie of them all: 'These MR16s are cool'.
But now we have a unique opportunity to assuage that guilt. By confronting our past, confessing to our crimes and paying back to society. Restorative justice, it's called in the jargon.
Our community service is to begin to tackle all the bad lighting out there.
It could be a shrewd move commercially. With private sector new-build the slowest it's been in years, and public sector spending about to fall off a cliff, we need to look at the opportunities presented by the UK's existing lighting stock.
And with the awesome developments in lighting technology over the past decade – hell, the past two years – we can make a big difference.
But it means being more proactive than we have been in the past.
I am thinking of those guys and girls – often wholesalers' reps, sometimes the new breed of energy consultant – who are rocking up to clients with calculations showing how wasteful their lighting is and proposing solutions with rapid paybacks. They also explain how soft loans from the Carbon Trust and tax breaks from Enhanced Capital Allowances can satisfy the bean counters. They then source the lighting equipment and appoint the installers. All in all, it makes for a nice business that stays below the radar of competitors.
We should aim to celebrate and replicate what these enterprising individuals are doing – but on an industry-wide level.
Instead of talking to ourselves – which we're pretty good at – we need an outreach programme to educate end users and those with large lighting estates. We need to promote what lighting technology can achieve. After all, the 5,000 biggest organisations are facing a new carbon tax in the form of the CRC Energy Efficiency Scheme. And we can help them avoid it – often for little or no extra cost.
This November's LuxLive exhibition and EcoLight conference are designed to contribute to this reaching out. The LuxLive exhibition will provide a showcase for the very latest lighting technology for both the lighting community and its customers, while the EcoLight conference is aimed squarely at end users in
the retail, commercial, industrial, transport, infrastructural and public sectors. It's designed to explain how energy can be saved in their property portfolios using lighting while improving the lit environment.
It's just a start of course, but I can feel the guilt lifting already.

Alumni of 2008
"GBYO exposed me to many different people who have had a profound affect on my music development."
Erin Dowrey, percussion ('02 - '08), is a student at Carnegie Mellon University studying with Tim Adams, and Paul Evans.
"GBYO helped me get very well acquainted with popular, as well as some not so popular, repertoire. I had great chances to play good parts, especially later on in my years with GBYO."
Holly Spohn, french horn('05-'08), is currently attending The Ohio State University with a major in Music education. She recently traveld to Europe with the AMA Empire Tour Honor Band and Choir, and is currently playing in the 2nd highest band at Ohio State. She is also involved with a brass trio and horn quartet/duet.
Angelo Di Loreto, percussion and piano '03-'08, is pursuing a BM in jazz and classical piano at Manhattan School of Music. "For me, GBYO was a venue by which I made some of my best friends in high school. The social aspect of the fall camp, rehearsals, and tours was always a great addition to the music. Familiarizing myself with all the repertoire I have played with GBYO deeply enhanced my knowledge of classical music and orchestral performance, and taking that a step further, it was truly an honor to perform said repertoire on great stages such as Carnegie Hall and Alice Tully in Lincoln Center. My tenure in GBYO was time well spent."

Florida residents may remember hearing in June 2013 that Rupert Murdoch, the chairman and CEO of 21st Century Fox and News Corp., filed for divorce from his third wife of 14 years. Now the media mogul is finalizing the divorce with a negotiated settlement. The terms of the settlement have not been released to the public, but there are some rumors as to how the assets are being divided.
Deciding who gets the pets in a divorce
Florida pet owners who are filing for divorce may wonder who gets to keep the family pets after a separation. While some people may consider their pets to be members of the family, the law does not agree. In the courtroom, a dog or cat is treated as a piece of property.
Divorce settlement meetings
Some Florida couples who are preparing to divorce may be interested in trying to resolve some of the issues amicably. In order to do that, spouses often agree to hold a settlement conference. A few helpful hints may be able to help people prepare for that meeting and have a more productive experience.
The use of experts in a divorce case
Although many divorces in Florida and elsewhere start off on a relatively amicable basis, couples frequently are unable to agree on certain issues. On such occasions, the testimony of experts is often relied upon to come to a determination. These professionals can be separately retained by either or both spouses or appointed by the court. In either case, expert testimony is considered reliable and admissible, and there are several types of experts that often play a role in these matters.

I want to start using combined pills. Since New Year's eve is getting closer and I'm planning of wearing a dress and don't want to have my period during that time, I want to delay it. I'm supposed to get my period on 29.12. And I was thinking to take pills from 22.12. till 02.01. This way my period will be delayed. My question is, when can I have sex after taking first combined pill and can I have sex during the period of 29.12-01.01. if I take pills?
Responses (1)
You can't just take the pills to delay a period. You have to be on them and it works better if you are on them for a few months. What you need to do is take the pills then when you get to the sugar pills instead of taking them you just start the next pack. But you have got to at least be taking the pills correctly for at least the month of December.

For this class i've teamed up with dating site Dateinadash to offer a unique class and social dubbed 'yoga dating!'
The classes are suitable for all and based on Heart warming Dru yoga and feature; partner yoga sequences – rotating between partners in the class to get acquainted; connection and mindfulness exercises; group (humandala) yoga; and an immense deep relaxation at the end! So less of a yoga class attended by Single people and more of a yoga class designed to connect.
"Feeling like a kid again! As we laughed are way through trying to get into some of the poses, I couldn't help feeling like I was back in gym class and we were playing around freely. It was an awesome feeling!" Indra, (Om exchange) Read full review
Classes also have a personal development aspect for participants – in particular working with maintaining a state of relaxation and sense of embodiment whilst in connection with each other.
The class is also in a fantastic venue and afterwards we head down to the road to a great pub, also the event is still early enough in the evening that you could head off out into the night after too!
Suitable for all - no previous experience necessary - except of being Single :-)

When a woman has a persistent or recurrent lack of interest in sex, this is medically described as hypoactive sexual desire disorder – what a mouthful, hence the simple abbreviation HSDD.
We've talked about taking Viagra, and how that dilates the blood vessels to the genitals, and how this is fine for men but does nothing for the women; females need a lot more stimulus provided by emotion and nerve sensitivity. Well, here is some possible good news. Scientists discovered that a drug, originally developed for fake tanning, called bremelanotide, triggered sexual arousal in both men and women.
In a two-year clinical trial, 550 women at centres across the US are being given the drug once every 24 hours – it's thought that it acts on the central nervous system – so it will be interesting to study the results of this trial.
Meanwhile, for those of us more interested in sex right now, there's a report in the Journal of Comparative Psychology about a study that says the more male friends a woman has, the more frequently she has sex with her partner. This could suggest that the threat of competition – whether consciously or sub-consciously – makes the woman more desirable to her man.
There you go, girls. If your man ever asks you about your male friends, you now have the answer!
Happy love-making.

[C] One Day in The City, Nolani
Posted: Apr 17 2018, 03:48 PM
The city was refreshing after weeks of being stuck in the deeproads. Liviana stretched, inhaling the, well it wasn't fresh air but it was at least better than the air inside the deeproads. They would be here for a few days to rest and pick up some more supplies. It had been a long time since she had gone to the surface, it was probably almost time for a visit.
The marketplace was busy with people, and Liviana scrunched her nose. That was one thing she didn't miss about being in the deeproads. The people. She liked her space, and in here too many people thought they could encroach on her bubble. She would have left it to the others to get supplies, but Arialle wanted to go and unfortunately, the elf couldn't go anywhere in the city without a "handler".
Liviana stood near the elf as she browsed, attempting to seem as if she was interested in what the elf wanted. A loud voice drew her attention after a moment, and she swivelled her head around to locate it. She recognized the thick elven accent that was normal for the dalish, and her lips turned down into a frown. What was a dalish doing down here? It wasn't exactly an elven friendly place. She reached to gently tap Arialle on the shoulder to let her know she was pulling away.
On closer inspection, she could tell from body language that things were escalating quickly. She just couldn't understand exactly what the elf was saying. Another one of those. Liviana was getting tired of trying to translate people. This was three in a week! She couldn't help that bone in her body that wanted to help people, however, so here she was about to get in the middle of a fight.
"Excuse me. What's going on?" Liviana flashed her best smile at the elf, letting her gaze focus on her lips. It was a little easier to read lips while she tried to figure out what was happening.
"Damn elf can't hear, must be stupid. Keeps talking gibberish."
Liviana released a breath, biting her tongue before she turned her attention back to the elf. Licking her lips, she said slowly. "Can I help?"
Posted: Apr 17 2018, 06:11 PM
"This is way too high! Ya gave someone I know this for a third less!" This entire place was an insult. An insult to her as a Warden, as an elf, as a bleeding Hero of Ferelden. None of those things meant shit to anybody down in this stone-ridden thaig and if Nolani could get just one or two things to go correctly, one or two deals to go smoothly, without hassling over prices, she would have left this place for the darkspawn.
Nolani tossed the written price back on the table with disgust. The dwarf behind his little table crossed his arms. His common was as terrible as a drunk's and Nolani squinted at him. He pointed at the parchment again, at the number amount printed there.
She shook her head vehemently. "Too much!" she repeated, trying not to hiss. "Here, give me." Nolani held open her hand, wiggling her fingers for the piece of sharpened rock he used as a writing instrument. Crossing off the number, Nolani wrote the number her dwarven warden had gotten the same leather boots for yesterday. Creators, she should have just asked him to come along, or fetch it to her. But she was tired of being overlooked and at the same time stared at, like she had lit herself on fire in the streets.
He denied the price, pointing again at the cross out number. Nolani sneered. The dwarf talked then, and she could make out something about... appearances and... needing to retain people. He pointed down at her feet at some point. At least, that's what Nolani thought he was doing. "Look, I just want those." Nolani pointed at a pair beside him.
He pointed at the crossed out number.
Nolani swore in elvish.
The dwarf, raising a brow, picked up the writing stone and wrote a new number. A higher one.
Nolani smashed a palm on his little table, making a loud bang that silenced immediate people around her. A shem approached then, and Nolani bared her teeth as that shem spoke to the dwarf. If she was going to be overlooked again...
Then the shem looked at her, and took a quick breath before speaking deliberately.
"I dunno, can ya?" she bit at the shem. That was undeserving, but she was pissed. "I need those boots. Ferret face here sold some to a friend of mine for a third ta price... now nearly half ta price. I need them. Then I can be gone and not set one foot back in this blighted thaig."
Posted: Apr 17 2018, 06:50 PM
By the Gods trying to understand the elven woman was like trying to speak dwarvish. Liviana reached up to rub her thumb over her forehead, grimacing. A brow arched at the snappy way that the woman spoke, she could tell in her tone that she was unhappy. At first she had thought the woman she found in the deeproads was mental. She talked about things that didn't exist and couldn't speak worth a damn, but this elf made three.
"She wants the boots. I told her the price, ain't my fault she's stupid."
"That's quite enough, thank you." Liviana snapped at the dwarf. By the Gods, sometimes she hated dwarves and their haughty attitude. Releasing a breath, Liviana reached over to look at the piece of paper. Her brow rose once more as she saw the two prices and knew for a fact the boots weren't worth either of them. Still, it might be worth it just to pay it and get it over with.
"He won't budge on the price," Liviana spoke once more to the elf. She turned her head to look at her, and offered her an apologetic smile. She could tell that the elf didn't understand and she let out a breath. What could she do to make the elf understand?
"Aneth ara," Liviana turned slightly as Arialle's voice spoke behind her and she gave a breath of relief. Good, maybe at least the two could speak elven while she dealt with the dwarf. She raised both brows at Arialle before turning to face the dwarf. Putting on her best smile, Liviana leaned forward to trail her fingers along the table.
"Look...so why don't I just buy them at their normal price and them we'll both be out of your hair?" Liviana really hoped that she wouldn't have to spend that much money on something as measly as a pair of boots but something strange was going on and it was best to try and get along with these...weird people.
"Lethallan?" Arialle spoke, frowning. Liviana turned to look over her shoulder and the elf shrugged helplessly. "She speaks elvhen, but it is...difficult to understand. The same as common."
Oh good.
Posted: Apr 18 2018, 06:42 PM
The shem's face twisted, lips pressing firmly as she spoke. Nolani took a deep breath, trying to fill her lungs with patience, but Creators it was just so difficult to speak to anyone about anything in this cursed thaig. "I need the boots," Nolani repeated. She touched fingertips onto the toe of the boot. "If ya can tell the durgen'len that I won't pay his ridiculous price, I would be grateful." Nolani moved the paper closer to the shem. "This is fuckin' stupid, don't ya think?"
Her movements were sharp, precise, with restraint temper. It was an art form, and one Nolani was not directly suited to. It was bad enough she couldn't haggle charmingly to save her life.
She caught the dwarf saying she was stupid and Nolani snapped her gaze about, snarling, "I'm an elf, but not deaf and stupid, durgen'len. If ya call me that one more damn time, I'm rippin yer beard off and tossin' it in a shitter." She stood with a palm braced on the table, daring the dwarf to open his ugly mouth again.
Then a familiar greeting caught her ear, and Nolani shifted her gaze to see an elf beside the shemlen. After staring, a bit struck to find another elf in this dwarven festooned city, Nolani nodded and returned the greeting, "Aneth ara."
The elf proceeded to explain, and Nolani frowned. Some of the words were still difficult, but the primary sound and poetic lilt of elvihen was recognizable. Standing still, Nolani did her best to piece together what the elf might be saying, while the shem talked overhead.
"She's trying to buy it?" Nolani asked in elvhen, for clarification. "I don't need her to buy it. I have the coin, just at here." Nolani pointed to the price she wrote on the parchment, to try and be more clear. "A friend of mine bought it at this." Now the elf was looking perturbed, and Nolani growled her frustration.
Across the counter, the dwarf said five over Nolani's asking price to the shem. Nolani turned a seething glare upon the dwarf. Then, slowly, in elvhen. "If your friend can buy it, she can have my coin." The dwarf glowered back, and Nolani really wanted to punch him in his flat nose.
Posted: Apr 18 2018, 07:22 PM
Liviana didn't even try to hide her amused snort as the elf snapped at the dwarf. She obviously wasn't as stupid as the dwarf was trying to make her out to be. Merchant dwarves were the worst of their race, Liviana had decided that the first time she had met one and she stood by her assement. She had half a mind to let the elf tear his head off and be done with it but to be honest she was surprised she hadn't already been thrown in jail for her ruckus. Breathing slowly through her nose to calm her own growing temper, she listened to Arialle try to speak to the elf.
"It may be your only choice if you wish to own them." Arialle spoke carefully. The elf's ear flicked slightly towards Liviana and the dwarf and she could clearly hear the irritation creeping into the human's voice and she sighed softly. And the day was starting out so well.
Arialle smiled faintly at the other woman's near demand that Liviana take her coin if she were to buy the boots. "We will not take it. You will need it more than her. The dwarves are not friendly to our kind."
"Ah, thirty-five silvers it is. Thank you so much, kind ser." There was an obvious smugness to Liviana's tone as she dropped the money on the table and swiped the boots with a quickness fit for a rogue. It was five silvers less than the original asking price that the elf had said her friend had bought them for. It had taken far longer than she had liked but with a silver tongue and wit she'd managed to haggle the dwarf down before he'd realized it.
"Here," She spoke, turning to hold the boots out to the elf. "And I will apologize on his behalf, some people are less than civilized here."

Nolani sneered, teeth curling back briefly. She fucking hated this. She hated it enough she had to rely on the shemlens and durgenlens in her company to easily purchase her repairs, equipment, and even food. It was wholly embarrassing when it was her teammates. For strangers? Nolani could feel her ears start to burn.
"No," Nolani told the elf, sternly. There was no argument to be had about that fact. Her money was as good as anyone's; she just wasn't going to be cheated of it. "Your friend will have my money."
Kind ser. Fuck that. Dwarf needed his face thoroughly scrubbed against a washboard.
"He can apologize for himself," Nolani growled, shooting the dwarf a final scowl. She didn't believe in apologizing for an act one did not commit. It meant nothing to receive an apology on the behalf of another; the act was not excused.
"... Ma serannas," Nolani said. She took the boots and tucked them beneath her arm. She looked at the elf. She had an easier time understanding the elvhen they spoke than the common the shems and dwarves spoke. "I am good for the money. Usually I have a durgen'len in company, and he purchases most things on my behalf. Come. Follow."
Nolani gestured as she turned around. She wasn't going to hand the money over to the shem with the smug dwarf watching. Nolani didn't dodge around wandering shoppers and merchants, unless they carried something large or a stand was in the way. Once in a less trafficked area, Nolani dropped her new boots between her feet as she pulled open her coin purse and started counting.
The silence was awkward for her. And not that they were catching all the words each other spoke, Nolani decided to ask what she was antsy to know about. "Why do they hate elves? Not that others have been kind to elves ever, but this distaste is much stronger." she looked at the elf, hoping she'd spoken simply and slowly enough to be understood.

Liviana glanced at Arialle, who merely shrugged her shoulders and started after the elven woman. In most matters, Arialle let her lead, especially here, but she was content to let the elf lead this time. Elvhen matters were lost on her for the most part. She knew some of the language, mostly greetings and such, but to speak it fluently was like trying to speak dwarvish. Needless to say, her tongue couldn't accurately articulate more of the language.
Watching the elf as she walked, Liviana smiled faintly. She was small, but she carried a presence that made most people move out of her way. It was nice to see, although dangerous. Her own countrymen wouldn't hesitate to kill an elf they thought was too much of a problem, if they bothered to catch her in the first place and not just shoot her down. It was why Arialle pretended to be as meek as she did, when in realtity the redheaded elf was a spitfire to the most extreme.
When they finally stopped Liviana opened her mouth to protest--she hadn't bought those boots just to be repayed--but she was silenced by Arialle raising her hand. A huff left her lips, and she crossed her arms over her chest, looking annoyed. A look of confusion crossed over the elf's face once the other woman spoke--not that Liviana could understand it--and Arialle looked to her briefly before turning her attention back to the other elf.
"....After the fall of Arlathan, we have been on the run. Either enslaved or killed by the Imperium. The durgen'len...share the same hatred as the shemlen. I believe they think we are too much of a problem. To aid us would be to anger the Imperium and...they have already shown the power that they wield." Arialle stared at the elven woman. It was hard to figure out how old she was, but she was not young. Only the smallest of elven babes didn't know what had happened with Arlathan, and yet this woman spoke as if she knew nothing.
"Where have you been that you do not know this?" It was a puzzling question.
Posted: Apr 19 2018, 12:07 PM
After Arlathan. Sure, the enslavement of elves was well known among the Dalish.
Nolani slowed in thumbing a coin into her palm. Wait. She'd stopped talking. That was it? There wasn't... more to the reason? Casting a puzzling eye to the other elf and shem, Nolani finished counting the coins.
"Somewhere where I was respected," Nolani answered, in common. "I know about it." She reached over with her palm full of silver. "Ya learn the story as a child, but then... Do the Dales mean anything to ya? Dalish?" She looked between the shemlen and the elf.
What in the fucking hell. Nolani felt a surge of sickening fright, as she remembered it being suggested they were in another time by the human in her group. Like time travel could be an actual fucking thing. Yet the longer she was here, the more she learned about the thaig, the more other people admitted not knowing what a gray warden was, or what a Dalish was, and were confused by their speech...
The shemlen was the first she'd seen outside of her own party, as well as the elf. They had to have come down here from the surface. If they couldn't understand her, in either common or elvhen, and had no knowledge of certain words, could it be true? That she hadn't just been transplanted by magic to some weird, underground thaig full of dwarves with their heads up their asses and lived too long secluded and just happened to also be called Cadash?
Ugh. She really, really didn't want to believe it. Fuck magic. Who was responsible for this shit?
"Wardens. Does that mean anything to either of ya? Who fights the darkspawn? Yer in the middle of a blight, aren't ya? I know it because my nightmares are fuckin keepin me awake at night." Nolani inhaled and held her breath as she asked her next question. "Which one?"
Posted: Apr 19 2018, 01:11 PM
Liviana and Arialle looked at each other, expression mirroring each other. Dales? Dalish? Those words meant nothing to either of them. Arialle hesitantly took the coin from the other woman, reaching around Liviana to deposit it into the human's coin purse, despite the protests from her. They'd likely find it thrust into their hands if they refusesd and for now she wanted to keep things friendly.
"I am sorry, but we know nothing of...dalish or this dales." Arialle truly felt sorry that she couldn't help the woman more. Too many of her people suffered now days and she didn't want to see anymore suffer. The next words that tumbled from the woman's lips gave her pause. Her ear flicked towards Liviana and the human stepped forward some. She had been trying to allow the elves to converse but at the mention of darkspawn, it piqued her interest.
"We do." Liviana spoke, she paused, thinking and then corrected herself. "Not just Arialle and I but...anyone who is trained to fight at some point will face the creatures. My band and I...we have stationed ourselves here. To protect the thaig."
Liviana paused, looking to Arialle for clarification, and she received a nod. The only wardens she knew of were those that guarded the prisons. She doubted that those were what she spoke of. Licking her lips, she spoke again. "We know nothing of wardens but...this is the only blight, my kinsman...they did a stupid thing. Breaching the walls of the sacred city. They started this...and we...are losing."
It was a hard thing to swallow, but it was the truth. Every day more darkspawn were created and more people died. They fought because they would not simply lay down and die, but it was becoming a futile mission.
"Dumat leads them...corrupted and lethal. We cannot defeat him and so the horde grows stronger."
Arialle was silent as Liviana finished speaking, her ears drooping slightly. What the human said was true. Every day they lost more and more of their brethren to the creatures that dwelled below. Their sickness was a death sentence and now even the land was becoming sick.
Posted: Apr 19 2018, 03:45 PM
Fuck everything .
Nolani blanched and swore vehemently in Elvhen as the shemlen finished speaking. Unable to help herself, Nolani paced in a small line, stringing fingers through her grimy, filthy hair, causing dirt to cascade down her cheeks. This was the most information she'd heard since arriving here, partially because Nolani hadn't wanted to believe the time travel theory.
Dumat? Only blight? The first Blight . At least they had bloody fucking knew what a Blight was. Everything suddenly felt surreal, like she was in a dream, because the realization was too wild to truly comprehend without a good night sleep. Everything was too weird. These people too strange. The darkspawn to different. After speaking to enough random strangers, Nolani couldn't rationalize this to be some enormously elaborate prank on the Hero of Ferelden, played out by a handful of mages who thought it would be worth a good laugh..
She was in the fucking past.
She was in the past where Arlathan could have happened yesterday.
She was in a past with a Blight. The worst Blight in history. What year was it?
She was in the past without Dalish. Without Wardens. No commanderie except those who were with her.
As horrible as it was, Nolani felt grateful Zevran had been pulled with her.
But into... The fucking First Blight.
Nolani smashed a fist against a building's stone wall. Shaking her hand after, she stood for a moment. She didn't belong here. This wasn't her world. This shouldn't be her problem. Except the magic had spat her out beneath this thaig. A thaig… that if she remembered right, became overrun by darkspawn.
If that was the case, how would they get back? Creators be damned, she did not want to care about this hellhole.
Nolani inhaled steeply. No Wardens. "How many warriors are holding the thaig against the darkspawn?" Nolani asked, as she stepped away from the wall, fingers hooking into her belt. "Are ya just trying to hold a line, or have ya thought about killing what's breeding them? Do ya know what's breeding them?"
Posted: Apr 19 2018, 06:03 PM
Liviana exchanged glances with Arialle as the elf began to curse and pace. Well, this was odd. Although darkspawn seemed to bring that reaction out in most people. She cleared her throat, shifting her weight as she waited for the woman to calm down. She really wished she knew her name, that would make things a little better. When attention was turned back to them, Liviana hesitated briefly.
"...Including us? About ten. Not including the dwarven troops that are stationed. They focus more on the city, however and less on what happens in the tunnels." Liviana sighed, resting against the wall. She leaned forward so that her hands were on her knees, stretching as just a way to do something. There used to be more of them, but over time they'd been killed in some way or fashion. Or they turned coward and ran. Where did they run to she had no idea. There wasn't a place that didn't have at least one darkspawn.
"You said...what's breeding them. As if you knew..." Arialle spoke suddenly, bringing her attention to the other elf. Liviana frowned, pushing away from the wall. Her expression had become hardened, not the soft friendly face from before, but a hardened warrior's expression when they knew their options were growing slim.
"Do you know something?" Liviana paused, glancing away. She wasn't the first person that she had talked to that seemed...out of place. She was just merely the only one she had talked to the longest to get a hint of anything. Something was weird with these new people. But if she could help...
"Please...if you know something that could help....I don't care how you know and I don't care what I have to do to do it. People are dying...either through the corruption these beasts spread or being torn apart. We won't live much longer...none of us will."
Posted: Apr 19 2018, 07:02 PM
Nolani scoffed. They needed a fucking army.
Ten. Was there something magical about that number and Blights? Ten was how many began with her, if she counted the events after Ostagar. Ten people went against the Blight first, beholding people to the treaties they had signed... Fuck. Much later than now.
They didn't seem to know darkspawn were being breeded either. What a bunch of amateurs.
"I might know a thing or two," she said, with a sideways smile. "I've been fighting darkspawn... " Nolani trailed a bit, nearly spitting out she'd been fighting darkspawn for a decade, and it occurring late that maybe she shouldn't talk about how she knows much. Perhaps the Blight wasn't a decade old. That would have really confused them, more than they already seemed to be, and Nolani wasn't sure how they'd take to learning about probable time travel. What year was it? "... for a while."
Well, she might know something. There might be broodmothers. Nolani didn't rightly know, but she knew something was making them, even if they were different from Fifth and post Fifth Blight.
"Yeah, I bet they are," Nolani muttered, in a quieter response to the shemlen's comment about people dying. "Their blood is poison, and the disease acts fast, and it... converts." She grimaced, not liking much to recount the horrors of conversion - into ghouls or broodmothers. "Yer female fighters, if ya've had any, they're dragged off if alive. The darkspawn will convert them, and they'll make broods." The elf and shemlen seemed grotesquely fascinated. "If it's been difficult, ya might have a broodmother somewhere around. Otherwise, we should find their main route and close them in."
Nolani closed her mouth then, and sighed heavily through her nose. She hadn't wanted to be involved. She had wanted to go to Orzammar. To go to the surface. Get her bearings. Find persons with an expert on magic, that maybe she could trust.
But it was the First Blight. And there were no Wardens. And there were a lot of darkspawn. When she chewed on her lip before she stepped to the shemlen and elf. "Nolani Mahariel," and she bit back her title Hero of Ferelden as she offered her hand to the shemlen. "I can help ya. If ya want it. Me and my friends."
Posted: Apr 19 2018, 07:23 PM
Liviana frowned as she spoke. How long was a while? She'd been fighting since she was sixteen, Arialle longer than that. There were things no one knew, because no one cares to venture further into the deeproads than they needed. What could this woman know that they didn't? There was a pause in the elf's voice, just long enough for her to pick up on the fact that she was hiding something. Liviana didn't want to rock the boat just yet, so she'd let it slide for now.
The next words, however, had both females going pale with horror. Was that how they were breeding? By using their own people as breeding stock? Liviana felt bile rise in her throat and her stomach twisted. How many female fighters had she seen fall? How many had still been alive? She didn't want to think about it, couldn't think about it. Liviana cleared her throat.
"Where...would it be if...if there was one?" Damn it, her voice was cracking more than she wanted it to. She could be a damn good warrior but she had a bleeding heart and in this moment it showed. Liviana felt a hand on her shoulder, a comforting squeeze, and she smiled faintly at Arialle.
"I am Arialle, and this is Liviana. We would welcome your aid. Mathais is our leader, but he generally takes Liviana's council."
Liviana nodded her head, returning her gaze to Nolani. She released a breath and straightened her spine so that she at least looked more composed. "And please...forgive me I...I have known many female warriors that have went down in this battle and I pray to the Gods that they died where the fell. The other is...difficult to stomach."
She released a breath, rubbing her thumb along her forehead. By the gods she was turning into a mess today. Liviana cleared her throat, dropping her hand. "I will speak to Mathais tonight. I will meet you tomorrow at the north entrance. It is where we have been staying close to."
Posted: Apr 21 2018, 09:18 AM
"Darkspawn make trenches," Nolani explained. If she was going to be of any help, or help prevent more from falling to darkspawn, she might as explain explain what she knew. "Beyond their battle lines. Or groups. Or whatever ya call them. It's... Well, fucking disgusting is what it really is and there is no nice way of explaining it."
Nolani smiled, crookedly and without teeth, in sympathy at the shemlen Liviana. As bad as the imagination was, Nolani was certain the reality would be much, much worse. There was no good way to prepare even the most battle hardened warrior to the atrocity of a broodmother. Even Nolani had faced some of the worse, and yet a broodmother made her pause longer than she would have liked.
Because of her Calling came. If she went to the Deeproads, she was certain the taint would claim her before any darkspawn. If that happened, what next? Would her ghoul have her abilities? Or would she be converted, purely on the basis she was female. This is why she'd asked Zevran to simply kill her should the song happen before she found a cure.
The darkspawn wouldn't have her.
"Aye, well... Nothing good can come of darkspawn. Whatever yer thinking, I'm certain it's worse." Nolani spoke with confidence, but not indifference. Liviana, and Arialle, needed to be informed. "Prepare yer mind for worse. And what ya will do when faced with it."
Livaina gave her a location and another name to try and form syllables around. Repeating back, until they seemed satisfied she could find them tomorrow, Nolani nodded when she thought she understood thoroughly. "Tomorrow then. Let me gather my boys."
Nolani picked up her boots and thanked Liviana again. "I'll explain more tomorrow, if I get the chance." And, hopefully, wouldn't regret opening her mouth.
Nolani was kicking herself as she left them.
Fuck me.

PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA: We will continue to hunt them down the same way we're doing with remnants of Al Qaeda in the Fatah or elements of al-Shabaab in Somalia, or terrorists who operate anywhere around the world. Have no doubt we will continue and I will continue to do what is necessary to protect the American people. And ISIL poses a real threat, and I'm encouraged by the fact that our friends and allies recognize that same threat.
BRET BAIER, ANCHOR: President Obama at the NATO summit wrapping up with a news conference, sounding a lot tougher on ISIS, a lot, perhaps, clearer on the strategy as it's developing, he says, to go after ISIS terrorists even inside Syria. His Secretary of State John Kerry telling reporters this, quote, "We need to attack them in ways that prevent them from taking over territory that bolster the Iraqi security forces, others in the region who are prepared to take them on, without committing troops of our own, obviously. I think that's a red line for everybody here. No boots on the ground." And there's the rest of it. Let's bring in our panel, Steve Hayes, senior writer for The Weekly Standard, A.B. Stoddard, associate editor of The Hill, and syndicated columnist Charles Krauthammer. Charles?
CHARLES KRAUTHAMMER, SYNDICATED COLUMNIST: Look, I think the major event that came out of the conference in Wales, the NATO summit in Wales had nothing to do with NATO. It had to do with the inside of Obama's head. After three attempts, he finally was able to tell the world what his objective is, the destruction of ISIS, and that he's working on a plan. I must say I'm not quite impressed with the announcement of a coalition which incidentally is nine other countries. Remember how Democrats ridiculed the Bush administration which had 28 -- 38 allies in the war in Iraq and called the Bush administration's attack on Iraqi unilateral. So, compared with what in Iraq, this is not exactly a glorious coalition -- excuse me. When I think of this I get all choked up.
KRAUTHAMMER: The important thing here is that Obama has a strategy. But when he talks about a coalition we need to know, what are these other countries going to do? He hasn't told us, and until he does that coalition is theoretical at best.
BAIER: Did he, though A.B. stem the looking into the parsing of his words on strategy and plan today?
A.B. STODDARD, ASSOCIATE EDITOR, THE HILL: Oh, yes. I think they did not want to clarify the previous two clarifications, and Charles is right, the third time was the charm. He was quite clear.
But now that he's really committed himself he can't have Secretary of State John Kerry saying there are no red lines. This is an unprecedented threat. We are in for a long slog. He said we cannot contain, we must dismantle ISIL. And so when you are doing that, hoping, of course, that all these other countries are going to help you, that you can use counterterrorism measures, that it doesn't have to be called a war, that it can be holistic, but you actually really can't draw a red lines about where the battle is going to take you.
BAIER: You know, Steve, it was interesting he said, I think it was three times that we'll hunt them down the same way we hunted down the remnants of Al Qaeda in Fatah, in Pakistan, along the Pakistan-Afghanistan border. There the U.S. has been using drone strikes for the past 10 years or so.
STEVE HAYES, SENIOR WRITER, THE WEEKLY STANDARD: Right. Well, this has long been President Obama's obsession. It was his obsession even before he was a president. My colleague Tom Joscelyn at The Weekly Standard has an interesting article this week in which he goes back and recounts a story, a meeting between David Petraeus and then-senator Obama in the summer of 2008, and Petraeus is explaining, look, Al Qaeda and Iraq is a huge threat. This is a problem. We have to take them out. And Obama says, and I'm paraphrasing here, basically, I'm not concerned about those guys. I'm not concerned about the part of Al Qaeda. I'm concerned about the part of Al Qaeda that attacked us directly and that is in the Fatah, that's in Afghanistan and Pakistan. And that's been his motto all along. I think we've seen the decapitation efforts that the administration has undertaken there, while successful in a local way or in a regional way, have not actually done much to eradicate Al Qaeda and the broader threat that Al Qaeda presents.
BAIER: Meantime, you have Senator Rand Paul weighing in and trying to clarify something he said about Syria. Take a listen to this.
SEN. RAND PAUL, R - KY: I think that chaos breeds terrorism. So when you have a lack of order, you know, once we wiped out the order or the regime in Libya, we had chaos. It's the same in Syria. The policy of President Obama is to degrade Assad, but Assad is an opponent to radical Jihadism. So Radical Jihadism is now flourishing in Syria and ISIS really has grown stronger because we helped to create a safe haven for them, or President Obama did, rather.
BAIER: You know, about Syria, about, you know, he's been walking this line about going after ISIS. He says it must be destroyed, but working with Assad. It's pretty interesting.
KRAUTHAMMER: Looks, he walks this line, he makes no sense. The idea that the growth of ISIS is a result of the degrading of the strength of the regime in Damascus as done by the United States is preposterous. The criticism of Obama is that he hasn't done anything to make sure that Assad leaves. He can say he's got to leave. He has never lifted a finger. He hasn't armed the opposition. He hasn't really helped them in any way except rhetorically. The ones who have been in there are the Iranians, the Russians, and Hezbollah.
So, he always likes to say there's terrorism, ultimately the cause is the United States meddling, as if our meddling in Syria is the cause of the rise of ISIS. That is simply ridiculously wrong, and it's hard to take seriously somebody who can say something like that.
BAIER: Has this changed the dynamic for, not to turn this completely on politics, but for somebody like Rand Paul. You see Elizabeth Warren out, ISIS must be destroyed, Democrat after Democrat stepping up with statements it seems.
STODDARD: Right. You have seen there's been a move among Republicans who were long quiet to really get out there and try to lead the debate about how we need to fight this now with everything we've got. And after a period in which the Republican Party was very concerned it lost its foreign policy leg of the three-legged stool of the party, that everyone was turning into doves, this is sort of reassuring.
At the same time, I do believe that when the actual 2016 presidential contenders are seeking to separate themselves from each other, and we're actually in a long slog against ISIL or ISIS, or whatever we're going to call it, there will be some retreat again from -- we'll see distinctions between who is really going to be to the right, a hawk, more strong on defense and national security than Hillary Clinton, and who is going to start talking again about what we're going to take care of here at home. I think it's easy in September before Congress is back to talk a big game, but when it comes to votes and it comes to presidential debates next year, I think we're going to see a different tune.
BAIER: Interesting, Hillary Clinton has not spoken out about this at length or even really any statements. She was out with Harry Reid yesterday at a clean energy summit, saying climate change is the most consequential, urgent, sweeping collection of challenges we face.
HAYES: If she said then she has in fact spoken out about this because she is saying this is by definition secondary. It's not secondary. This is the most urgent crisis that we face, so she's just wrong about that. I think those words will come back to haunt her.
On Rand Paul, the challenge that he faces is that in effect what we've seen from Barack Obama over the six years of his administration is a foreign policy a lot like Rand Paul has been proposing. Basically, the United States should stay out, it shouldn't rush in, we shouldn't do anything. We didn't do anything in Syria or anything significant in Syria, as Charles points out, and it, obviously, didn't produce a good outcome. So he's got to find a way to sort of walk away from that and sort of remake himself as, if not a hawk, just not the dove that he has been.
BAIER: Next up, the Friday Lightning Round.
