Background: It's finally starting to feel like spring outside. The temperatures are warming, there are patches of grass peeking through the snow, and we're beginning to see birds migrating north for the summer. Among those birds is the tiny Ruby-throated Hummingbird. Weighing in at only 2 to 6 grams, it migrates from southern Mexico, across the Gulf of Mexico, to its summer home as far north as southern Canada each spring and back again each fall. The graph is line graph showing the number of adult male and female Ruby-throated Hummingbirds captured each day by a group in Quebec, Canada in 2007 between May 6th and August 27th. On days where zero birds were caught, either there were no birds out that day or it was too windy or rainy to catch birds safely.

1. Once you're done applying natural pastel eyeshadow, use a well sharpened soft brown pencil to draw your cat-eye. Leave just a little bit of space between the inner corner of your eye and the beginning of the line. Draw a line from that point to the middle of your lower eyelid.
2. You will need a small flat brush. Hold it at a 90 degree angle to your eye and blend the cat-eye towards the end of your brow and along the lash line to the inner corner of your eye. This step allows you to modify the length and angle of your cat-eye.

3. Blend the bottom edges of the line. Draw a line along the upper lash line perpendicular to the lower line. There will be some clear space in the corner, which will make your eye visually bigger.….READ MORE ON THE NEXT PAGE

Public Visits to our Observatory at Kenley
Our observatory is open to the public on Saturday evenings from September to May. The observatory is open from 8:30 pm to about midnight, weather permitting. Please telephone the observatory on 020 8668 9642 to check openings, and also here.
Information on how to find our observatory and parking areas can be found here.
Visitors are requested to park on the main road, Hayes Lane, as there are no parking facilities at the observatory site. A few hundred metres to the south there is a parking bay next to the Kenley Aerodrome WW2 memorial. Responsibility for parking has to be with the visitor.
Site Etiquette and Safety
The path to the observatory and the surrounding area are not paved; it is strongly recommended that visitors should wear stout waterproof shoes or boots with substantial tread.
As you would expect the area around the observatory is not lit so you may find a small torch useful; however please do not shine it towards the buildings or any people outside who may be observing.
Don't forget that the observatory is not heated so please wear plenty of warm clothing.
Safety in the Dark
When you arrive you may find the area quite dark as it takes your eyes some time to adapt to low levels of light. We therefore recommend that you stay in the dark by your car for 5 minutes when you arrive to allow time for your eyes to adapt. If anyone shines their car lights in your direction look away or close your eyes immediately. It takes 10 to 20 minutes for your eyes to get used to darkness but only a short time looking at a bright light to lose your dark adaptation. You will then find that you will be able to see far more and normally there is sufficient light from either the Moon or the general London light pollution to allow you to walk about safely.
Dark adaptation is a requirement to see through the telescopes so the time is well spent.

Data Capture
Automatic Information Data Capture
Items, often referred to as assets, are tagged using combination bar code and passive UHF RFID tags known as Smart Tags. Smart Tags can be read by eye or by scanning the bar-coded label or detected using an RFID reader. Passive RFID tags are relatively inexpensive tags as they do not have an embedded power source, with the average price hovering around $1.00 per tag. The tags are powered by an energy wave prodcued by an RFID reader, once the tag is within range.
Smart Tags can be as simple as a peel and stick inlay, or as complex as a tag encased in a ceramic enclosure, protecting the tag from severe temperature extremes. Tags come in all shapes and sizes and are designed for specific application such as beig affixed to; documents, books, computers, furniture, vehicles, equipment, tools, cables, infrastructure fixtures and so on. They can also be used indoors as well as out of doors. Information is recorded into a small electronic chip that is part of the tag. Information is broadcast from the chip via the tag's integral antenna to an RFID reader. Smart Tags can be read in large quantities, simultaneously without line of sight when using either stationary or portable RFID readers.
While the benefits are many, using handheld readers provides significant improvements for conducting physical inventory and reconciliation activities by reducing errors and the time required to count. Handheld readers can be used in a wireless mode allowing the Operator to scan, detect tags and compare the reads to existing data stored on a server thus counting and reconciling in a single step.
While stationary RFID readers are normally used to detect movement into, or out of, a specific room, building or area, they can also be used to conduct inventory by scanning all items within a specified range and report the results accordingly. Stationary readers are also used to detect tagged items as they enter or exit a location and can link tagged items to employee badges.
In summary the objective of AIDC is to capture information automatically using technology. While there are many benefits, speed and accuracy are considered the primary drivers for choosing to implement AIDC technology.

Cleaning Your Shower Curtain
If you're like I am, you have out-of-towners sharing your home during the holidays, and one of the places I spend the most time cleaning is the guest bathroom.
I mean your guests should have a clean and fresh bathroom to use, right?
I remember when I used to get my dirty clothes on, put my hair up, get my scrub brush and cleaning solution just because I knew I'd be cleaning the shower curtain.
I'd spray on the cleaner and either get in the tub or lean over the tub to scrub that yucky mildew and soap scum from the bottom part of the shower curtain with the scrub brush. It wasn't easy, I'd get splattered on and a kink in my back.
Well those days are long over and they can be for you too!
We have some easy cleaning solutions for cleaning your shower curtain, so it doesn't have to be a pain in your back!

Bonbon Flip Sofa Bunk Bed
The cushions seem a bit on the tall side when used as a couch, but we're still impressed with the engineering behind Bonbon's convertible piece of furniture that goes from sofa to bunk beds in just seconds.
The cushions seem a bit on the tall side when used as a couch, but we're still impressed with the engineering behind Bonbon's convertible piece of furniture that goes from sofa to bunk beds in just seconds.
Smithers of Stamford offers these one-of-a-kind leather sofas built over the front or rear of old cars, complete with working headlights or brake lights. In this case, you're sitting on an old Hindustan Ambassador. Available in white, red, bronze or silver.
Co-designed by Apartment Therapy founder Maxwell Ryan, Interior Define's Maxwell sofa combines a deep seat, a low-profile height and curved shapes to create a modern take on European sofas. Available with a variety of fabric covers.
The perfect sofa for modern spaces, this mid-century inspired design offers plush cushions, and its pillowy back quilting and wood legs giving it a high-end look. Comes in dark grey or deep teal fabric. Available for pre-order 7/16/14.
Designer Scott Jones made Bloc'd Sofa, a modular seat that you can easily change to adapt to your needs. Its cushions are small, firm blocks that you can easily remove and rearrange on the sofa's steel and maple frame.
A concept for multipurpose furniture by Julia Kononenko. It can be converted from a sofa into a dinner table for six people. The cushions turn into stools while the double-layered backrest turns into a tabletop.
A tribute to life on the road, this sleeping bag also doubles as a couch. The Camp Daybed was designed by Stephanie Hornig as part of her graduation project, the Camp Furniture Collection.
If you've had your eye on the unusual Eastpak sofa, you're in luck because it's now stocked in various retailers. The pocket-filled furniture is based on Quinze & Milan's Club 01 sofa.
An auto shop in the Czech Republic makes sofas, tables and other furniture using actual parts from vintage cars. If you want, you can even send them a car for them to convert into furniture.
Tobias Fränzel's Champ is a sofa with a backrest that turns into a punching bag. It's too wobbly for serious training, but if it's just for kicks (or weak punches) it'll do. Contact Tobias for pricing.
Inspired by vintage luggage trunks, the Cuscino easy chair and B.O.P. (bench, ottoman, pouf) is made of pillow-like bolsters bound together with natural leather straps or weatherproof nylon ropes.

East Devon Congress Gets Under Way (27.02.2015.)
There had been a few question marks over the future of this event earlier earlier in the year, but the committee of 2 decided to go ahead anyway, and a late rush of entries took the total above the hundred mark.
By a quirk of fate, the funeral of the event's first secretary 40 years ago, Guy Sparke, was held a few hours before the start of Rd. 1. and in the opening remarks from the stage, the players were reminded of his contribution to creating and establishing the event on the chess calendar.
There were about 30 byes being taken on the Friday evening, but there were enough present to give the large playing area a busy look.

Some computer users are encountering a trouble recently regarding a browser redirect virus 9o0gle.com that keeps popping up new tags on browsers. They are seeking for removal help to terminate this annoying 9o0gle.com redirect page. Then, what is the good way to go out of the trouble? Should you really get rid of this website? Let's have a closer look below.
9o0gle.com is actually a browser hijacker bundled with free software, and once installed it will set the homepage and search engine for the web browser in the infected system to http://www.9o0gle.com. What makes people unhappy further is that, it will also append the argument http://www.9o0gle.com to random Windows shortcuts on your Windows Start Menu and your desktop.
The following screenshot shows the 9o0gle.com site:
9o0gle.com is designed as a search engine. It differs from the most common and adored search engines and does not try to resemble any of them. Indeed, it does tries to make people recognize this search system thru some distinguished utilities. However, once you know more about it, you will only want to get rid of it.
9O0GLE.COM automatically displays advertisements, banners, popups which are annoying and irritating. 9O0GLE.COM publishers use such files to spread in different computer system so that they can track web history which can include internet banking information like password, name, account number and others. 9O0GLE.COM should be deleted to avoid more damage to the system.
Guide: Automatically Remove 9o0gle.com with SpyHunter
SpyHunter is a legitimate, real-time anti-spyware application designed to assist the average computer user in protecting their PC from malicious threats. Here shows how it works.
Step 1. Click the below button to download the file.
Step 2. Double click on SpyHunter-Installer.exe to install the program. Then click Run button.
Step 3. Open SpyHunter and click Scan Computer Now! to allow the program to start a scan on your computer.
Step 4. When the scan is completed, all the threats in your computer are successfully detected. Tick Select All and then click Remove button to uninstall it.
Optional Choice: Optimize your PC with RegCure Pro
RegCure Pro is an advanced optimizer which is able to solve your computer system problems, remove your privacy items produced by online searches, delete junk files, uninstall malware and fix performance problems. Here shows how it works.
1. Click the below button to download RegCure Pro
2. Run the RegCureProSetup Application and click the Yes button to install the program step by step.
3. When the program is successfully installed, double click on its desktop shortcut to open it. On the Overview tab, check all the scan settings and then click on the Click to Start Scan button to run a system scan on your computer. The first system scan will take some time, please be patient.
4. When the system scan is done, click on Fix All button to completely remove all the performance problems in your computer.
Warm Tips:
There will be some leftover enabling the popup if you don't manually remove all the related infections. So if you encounter any difficulty in getting rid of 9o0gle.com manually, you are highly recommended to use SpyHunter Malware Removal. You also can think of downloading RegCure Pro to clean up and optimize your system.

I use GPO (full version) with Finale 2005 (I hesitstate to switch to 2006 too soon because of several problems with GPO, also mentioned on the Finale-forum).
My main problem in playing back orchestral scores at this moment is making settings for volume. Volumes are not controllable in a consistent way for me. It seems to have to do with the modulation wheel. Sometimes when I open a GPO set-up that sounded right when I saved it, the volumes of several instruments are much lower than before. Then when I just touch the modulation wheel (either on my keyboard or on the "player display") the volume increases dramatically, but not to the level I had before. Then I can make new adjustements with the volume button on the display but they seem not to be saved for later. Of course I am aware that Finale's Human Playback (HP) is affecting the volume levels in playback (I have made dynamic expressions affect the velocity; this should be translated by HP in the right GPO modulation-wheel settings). But it is essential to be able to make general level settings for the separate staffs that stay there and are not lost every time.
To add one more example of the volume control problems I experience:
when I adjust the volume for a certain instrument in the GPO player, as soon as I start playback in Finale that adjustement is lost and the volume button is automatically turned back to a default position.
This makes it impossible for me to set the levels right. How to set these levels?
Can somebody inform me how to handle this?
(NB please don't reply to me that this is fixed in Finale 2006 since 2006 has other major problems with GPO that keep me from installing it at this moment)
thank you,

Six Things We Learned From Saranghaeyo Indonesia 2016
This past Saturday evening NELL, Akdong Musician, and Taeyang were all in Jakarta for the 2016 "Saranghaeyo Indonesia" concert and we were lucky enough to be in attendance.
The show was, of course, epic but most importantly we were able to learn some new things about the special artists in attendance.
Since you can never know too much about your faves, we wanted to share our learnings with all of you. Without further ado, here are the six things we learned about the artists:
1. Akdong Musician are so adorably sweet and bubbly in real life.
When they saw BIGBANG's yellow crown sticks, they joked that they would stop singing so their sunbaenim Taeyang could sing sooner rather than later. Of course, all the Taeyang fans in the audience shouted for them to stay on stage. YG Family love!
2. NELL learned to communicate with fans through Google Translator.
Vocalist Kim Jong Wan admitted that he tried using Google Translator to communicate with Indonesian fans. He used it to learn how to say "thank you" in Indonesian, but was so terrible at it that he just couldn't bring himself to say it on stage. We'd love to hear it next time, Jong Wan!
3. "I'm here by myself just for you."
We all know how sweet Taeyang can be. He always pays extra attention to his fans, and this time he definitely made everyone in the room jealous of the girl who caught the doll he kissed. Taeyang coming to Indonesia solo essentially granted fans a one-on-one date with him – serenading us with sweet words and songs on a intimate stage. He also showed us how fun it'd be to party him through an amazing BIGBANG medley.
4. Akdong Musician can sing pretty much anything.
The duo is just superb at singing. Remember these cover of "Eyes, Nose, Lips"? This time they covered a song by the Indonesian band Mocca. Fans in attendance, was it even better than the original?
5. Lee Jung Hoon and Chanhyuk are fast learners.
NELL bass guitarist Lee Jung Hoon and AKMU's Chanhyuk were not as shy as Kim Jong Wan with their Indonesian and even picked up some slang last night. They were able to smoothly tell fans "Keren banget, Aku cinta kamu," which translates to "you're so cool, I love you" and of course everyone went wild!
6. Taeyang is the whole package.
From the sexy hip thrusts to his sweet falsetto…. Our hearts almost couldn't take it. Taeyang, oh, Taeyang! Why are you so perfect? His performances were always on point and he never, ever missed a note or a beat. He also promised to bring the rest of BIGBANG back to Indonesia soon – fingers crossed!
A special thank you goes to Mecima Pro for inviting us to cover the show. Were you at the concert? Tell us your favorite parts!

What You'll Get
Although best known for expanding the limits of human thought, the great philosophers were also ardent proponents of skin treatments—rarely furrowing their brows without first applying a de-furrowing cucumber mask. Wipe out your own philosophical furrows with today's deal: for $300, you get a full face and neck Pixel laser resurfacing treatment at Bridgeport Laser & Wellness Center (a $750 value).
Highly trained physicians oversee Bridgeport Laser & Wellness Center's skin-rejuvenating Pixel laser resurfacing treatments to ensure the safe erasure of signs of aging. During the one-hour treatment, a trained professional uses an Er:YAG laser in a targeted attempt to void sun damage, smooth fine lines, shrink oversized pores, and restore a glow to the lantern atop your bodily lamppost. The resurfacing laser can also help fill in acne scars and balance hyperpigmented complexions to an even tone.

text: Admixture-elements and their use as geochemical indicators for search of buried pyrite ores in the Greater Caucasus (Azerbaijan) Novruz A.Novruzov Geology Institute of Azerbaijan National Academy of Sciences, AZ 1143 Baku, av. H. Javid 29 A author text article 2011 eng Heterogeneous pyritaceous-polymetallic and copper-zinc-pyrrhotine deposits on the South slope of the Greater Caucasus are located in the Lower-Middle Jurassic terrigenous sediments. They were formed under a wide variation of physico-chemical parameters of mineral formation and are characterized by specific mineralogical-geochemical peculiarities. Ore-formation occurred in three stages. In the first stage, massive hydrothermal-sedimentary sulphurous-pyrite ores were deposited. The formation of the second stage of hydrothermal-metasomatic pyrite-polymetallic ores was prior to the intrusion of constant differentiated formation dikes. In the third stage hydrothermal-metamorphogenic copper-pyrrhotine ores were formed. Stratiform pyrite deposits can be characterized by a large variety of textural -mineralogical types of ores and mineral associations, by rich mineral composition and a rather wide geochemical spectrum. As a whole, among the studied admixture-elements (Tl, Ag, Hg as well as B, Li, Rb) one can find accumulating tendency in the above-ore series, near ores with pyrite-polymetallic composition. Other group of elements (Co, Sn, Mn, Mo and Bi) shows accumulation in the under-ore series. Deeper horizons of sandy-clayey rocks are enriched in uranium and potassium while the higher horizons are enriched in thorium above the ore deposit. Distribution peculiarities of such components (Tl, Ag, Hg, Sn and also Mo, Bi, K, U, Th) in the host the rocks of pyrite deposits of Greater Caucasus of South slope allows one to consider them along with ore forming components (Zn, Pb, Cu) as indicator elements for search of buried ore accumulations in the Lower-Middle Jurassic sandy-clayey deposits of region.

Belhassan Geology Department, Faculty of Sciences, Dhar Mehraz. Fez, Morocco author text article 2011 eng This paper investigates the relationship between river flow, rainfall and groundwater pumpage in the Mikkes stream during the period 1968-2009. The Mikkes basin is located in the north center of Morocco and consists of three different zones that represent diversified geologies. This basin includes a phreatic and confined aquifer in Saïs basin and a shallow aquifer in the Tabular Middle Atlas. Analysis of monthly medium flows between 1968 and 2009 shows an approximate oceanic system which is characterized by two hydrological seasons. First a period of high waters in winters which is conditioned by the pluviometric contributions and the second is a low water period in summer which is conditioned by evapotranspiration. The mode of this River can be called a pluvio- evaporal type. The high deficit of the Mikkes stream (between 1968-1979 and 1980-2009) is about 76% and could be the combined effect of drought and groundwater pumpage. Water table variations could be conditioned by climatic changes and regional geology. Actually, the annual water table variations show a drop in ground water levels, which is due to the combined effect of reduction in precipitation that has reduced the natural recharge of groundwater, and the increase in pumping which is increasing year by year for more than 80 years in this region. In addition, free-water tables are much more susceptible to pumpage when compared to the confined aquifer. Thus, the water table and piezometric heads of the Mikkes basin do not demonstrate a uniform sensitivity to the drought. High rainfall between 1995 and 1997 had affected the groundwater levels of Mikkes with an increase in piezometric level. The monthly piezometric variations of free-water table are characterized by a seasonal operation: groundwater recharge and discharge.

Mahboubi Department of Geology, Ferdowsi University of Mashhad, Iran author text article 2011 eng The Tirgan Formation (Barremian – Aptian) is exposed in the Kopet Dagh in northeast Iran. One stratigraphic section in Zavin was measured with a thickness of 110 meters. This Formation in section consists of three parts (including lower carbonate, limy shale – marl and upper carbonate rocks). Based on the study of 94 thin sections, 10 carbonate and 2 siliciclastic lithofacies have been identified. Carbonate lithofacies were deposited in a ramp platform in fore-shoal, shoal, lagoon and tidal flat environments. Sea level changes during the early Cretaceous time led to the formation of different large scale depositional sequences Zavin (two). The present data can help in the reconstruction of the tectonic history of the area during early Cretaceous time.

Center for Water Resources Development and Management, Kozhikode, Kerala – 673571, India author text article 2011 eng Statistical processing of data was necessary to arrive at a reasonable conclusion regarding the chemical behavior of groundwater in a river basin. Multivariate analysis was done to elucidate the groundwater chemistry of a Central Kerala River basin. Hydrochemical parameters like EC, pH, TDS, TH, Ca, Mg, Na, K, Cl, F, HCO 3 +CO 3 , SO 4 , total Fe were estimated in the pre- monsoon and post-monsoon seasons. Factor and cluster analysis differentiated two distinct contributing components to the groundwater in the basin indicating that there is considerable mixing of the groundwater and surface water in the post-monsoon season whereas such a process is not significant during the pre-monsoon period. Different geochemical controls of the investigated parameters were also assessed.

Ahmed Taiz University, Faculty of Applied Sciences, Geology Department, Taiz 6803, Yemen. author text article 2011 eng A total of 183 core and cutting samples from seven exploratory wells were selected to be analyzed by Rock-Eval pyrolysis. These cores have been drilled through the Lam and Meem Members of the Madbi Formation and contain the major source rocks of Yemen´s sedimentary basins. Contents of total organic carbon were measured and Rock-Eval pyrolysis was performed to evaluate the hydrocarbon potential of Block 18 oilfields in central Yemen. Most of the studied samples have fair to excellent petroleum generation potential as shown by the results of PP, PI, HI and TOC. They have also sufficient TOC values with an average value of 1.48 wt% and a maximum value of 12.34 wt% with a good petroleum potential averaging 4.54 kg HC/ton of rock and a maximum value of 44.78kg HC/ton of rock. HI values of the Madbi Formation in its full thickness range from 16 mg to 1114 mg HC/g TOC with an average value of 273 mg HC/g TOC. Kerogen types II and III, and a small amount of type I can be observed. These kerogens are thermally mature and mostly within the hydrocarbon generation zone. In a numerical simulation approach the thermal and burial history of the Alif-1 well, which is representative for this area was modelled. Using vitrinite reflectance data, as means of calibration, the modelling results were subjected to a sensitivity analysis concerning paleo-heat flow, radiogenic heat production, basement thickness and eroded overburden or maximum burial, respectively. The calculated temperature during deepest burial of the source rock layers of the Madbi Formation reached 158 °C for the Lam Member and 182 °C for the Meem Member. Compliance with the measured R0 values, used as calibration parameter, could be achieved by assuming an erosion of 1100 m of the Upper Tawilah Group. The heat flow is maximized at the onset of basin rifting in Late Jurassic to 90 mW/m2 having a base level of 60 mW/m2. Thus, the Lam Member has reached the main oil to wet gas window at its deepest burial whereas the Meem Member has undergone the wet gas window in its full thickness. The isopach map of the Alif Member, as the main reservoir in the studied area, indicates thickening of the sandstone unit towards the eastern and western parts of Block 18 around the Dostour Al-Wahdah gasfield in the east and at the Alif oilfields in the west.

The Al 2 O 3 content ranges from 30% to 60% and SiO 2 varies between 5% to 39%.The total tonnage is more than 22 million tons with a mean value of Al 2 O 3 content between 47% to 48% , SiO 2 around 10% and Fe 2 O 3 ranges between 6.95 to 27% . The Jajarm bauxite deposit shows high concentration of active SiO 2 and Fe 2 O 3 in comparison with other bauxite deposits of the world. Efforts have been made in this research to delineate the characteristics of the Jajarm monohydrate bauxites, consisting of a diaspore and chamosite mixture, to improve their chemistry by different beneficiation techniques and optimize their processing, grinding and digestion conditions for alumina production The Jajarm bauxite shows politomorphic and micro- granular texture with several secondary textural elements. The size of diaspore grains (which is the main mineral component) are generally below 10 microns, with a homogeneous matrix. In addition, for the very hard bauxite we can not do any separation between the crystal grains and the matrix because of similar hardness for both with closely packed space filling and in consequence of the absence of well- defined grain boundaries. Based on the above studies, the Jajarm bauxite can be enriched neither by grain analysis nor by magnetic separation. In this research hard bauxite was crushed between 2 to 3 inches and then samples were washed with 5% HCl. The result of this laboratory studies shows that the silica modulus has improved from 1.05 to 2.56 which indicates an increase of 29% in the Al 2 O 3 content. Jajarm laboratory s study shows that Jajarm bauxite deposit partially can be improved only by water treatment.

Determination of this petrophysical parameter is an essential step in reservoir characterization. Among different linear and nonlinear prediction tools such as multi-regression and polynomial curve fitting, artificial neural network has gained the attention of researchers over the past years. In the present study, two-dimensional (2D) seismic and well logs data of the Burgan oil field were used for prediction of the reservoir porosity. In this regard, broad-band acoustic impedance was first extracted from 2D seismic dataset, as the attribute most related to porosity. Next, other optimum seismic attributes were selected using stepwise regression and cross validation techniques. At the end, three types of neural network were used for inversion of seismic attributes and prediction of reservoir porosity. The results show that probabilistic neural network (PNN) is the best one for prediction of the reservoir porosity using seismic attributes.

Official statements announcing key developments in WFP operations and activities.
ROME – WFP has launched a range of operations in response to the devastation caused by Hurricane Irma across the Caribbean. These assistance activities are being mounted in support of national governments, regional organizations, disaster agencies and humanitarian actors across the region.
PORT AU PRINCE – The United Nations World Food Programme (WFP) is preparing to provide emergency assistance to the people of Haiti should the country be hit by Hurricane Irma, one of the most powerful Atlantic storms ever recorded. The Category 5 storm, described as "extremely dangerous" by the United States' National Hurricane Centre, was due to pass over the Dominican Republic and Haiti on Thursday. It could make landfall in the US state of Florida at the weekend.
CANADA – The United Nations World Food Programme (WFP) today launched the #ASK1TOASK1 campaign, asking all Canadians to join the challenge to raise 150,000 meals for children in Haiti through the ShareTheMeal app to mark Canada's 150th anniversary.
HAITI - When Hurricane Matthew ripped through Haiti in October 2016, many communities struggled to recover amid torrential rains, blocked routes and the interruption of radio stations and telephone networks. In addition to humanitarian assistance, people were desperate for something else: access to accurate, useful information. The World Food Programme (WFP) and media development organisation Internews are restoring four community radio stations damaged by Hurricane Matthew, improving their ability to transmit localised humanitarian messages and enabling Haitians to receive critical updates and engage in the recovery of their communities.
PORT-AU-PRINCE – Three months after Hurricane Matthew made landfall in Haiti, the number of people facing hunger and food insecurity in Grande-Anse and Sud - the most affected areas - has declined steadily from approximately 1 million to 400,000, a recent assessment shows.
PORT-AU-PRINCE – A month after Hurricane Matthew made devastating landfall in Haiti, claiming many lives and destroying livelihoods and infrastructure, the World Food Programme (WFP) has distributed food assistance to almost 400,000 people as part of its continuing support to the Government's recovery efforts.
PORT-AU-PRINCE – Some 1,4 million Haitians require food assistance in the wake of Hurricane Matthew, which wrought widespread devastation on supplies and crops across large swaths of the island nation. More than half – 800,000 people – are in dire need of immediate food aid, according to an emergency field assessment.
PORT-AU-PRINCE – The World Food Programme (WFP) is supporting the Government of Haiti in providing emergency food assistance to 750,000 people in regions battered by powerful Hurricane Matthew.
PORT AU PRINCE – The United Nations World Food Programme (WFP) is mobilizing to respond if requested by Caribbean countries in the path of Hurricane Matthew, as it struck Haiti on Tuesday as a Category 4 hurricane.
SANTO DOMINGO – Startling figures were released today about the impact of micronutrient deficiencies, or "hidden hunger" during the opening of the First Regional Workshop on Rice Fortification in Latin America and the Caribbean," which aims to highlight rice fortification as a cost-effective strategy that can help countries achieve Zero Hunger by 2030, as laid out in the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

Les identités territoriales à Gatineau, 15 ans après la fusion municipale.
Prior to 2002, the urban Outaouais region consisted of five autonomous municipalities before the Quebec government imposed the merger of several municipalities in the urban areas throughout the province by adopting the Bill 170. In Outaouais, the cities of Aylmer, Buckingham, Gatineau, Hull and Masson-Angers were combined to create the City of Gatineau. This research aims to understand how the territorial identities of the citizens who have experienced this change may have been influenced by the modification in the structure of the territory on which a large part of their daily social interactions take place. The answers provided by 152 participants from Aylmer and Masson through a questionnaire survey enabled us to draw an interesting portrait of the citizens living in two peripheral areas of the City of Gatineau. All in all, it was found that citizens do not identify strongly with the new city and remain anchored to their former municipalities.

Diabetes in Cats
Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a disorder of carbohydrate, fat and protein metabolism. It is caused by the body's inability to either produce or properly utilise the hormone insulin. This results in excessive amounts of glucose in the blood stream (hyperglycaemia) and the urine (glycosuria).
Clinical signs can vary a lot depending on the individual, the severity of the condition and how long the animal has had the condition.
Most common signs of diabetes in cats are:
- Drinking excessively (Polydipsia)
- Increased appetite (Polyphagia)
- More frequent urination or increase in the volume of urine produced (Polyurea)
- Weight loss – Usually muscle first ("my cat feels boney") then fat.
These are the most notable signs seen at home. Due to the high blood glucose level the kidneys can no longer prevent its loss into the urine. This loss of glucose in the urine takes water with it. This means there is more urine to get rid of (Polyurea). The water loss from the kidneys would rapidly cause the cat to become dehydrated if it did not drink more to compensate for this extra loss. So this leads an increase in the cats drinking (Polydipsia). The body thinks there is not enough energy so it causes the appetite to increase (Polyphagia). Despite this increase in appetite the glucose can't get into the cells so the body starts to break down its own resources muscle and then fat leading to the weight loss. Usually despite these quite dramatic clinical signs the cat may well be bright and happy in it self. Also if your cat drinks and toilets outside this can go unnoticed.
Other clinical signs
- Coat – This can become oily/greasy looking with excessive dandruff
- Liver enlargement – This may be mentioned by us at examination
- Jaundice – This is a yellow colouration to skin or white part of the eyes.
- Blood or Straining to Urinate – As the urine becomes more dilute and sugary, bacteria can start to multiply in the bladder and cause cystitis
- Cataracts – The black part of the eye becomes white and cloudy (Uncommon)
- Neuropathy – Causes the animal drop and walk with a lower stance
- High blood pressure (Hypertension)
There is a very serious potential complication called ketoacidosis that can occur suddenly in any uncontrolled diabetic patient. This can cause severe depression, vomiting, diarrhoea, lack of appetite, dehydration, collapse, coma and then death. This condition can rapidly worsen and is an emergency. Any cat that is suspected of having ketoacidosis needs to be seen immediately.
What is Insulin?
Insulin is a hormone produced by special Islet cells inside the pancreas. The pancreas is an organ situated near the outflow from the stomach and the start of the duodenum. It also has a role in producing some very important digestive enzymes. Insulin is released into the blood stream where it travels to all parts of the body and affects all cells. It allows cells to take up glucose (a type of sugar) where it is utilised as a source of energy. Insulin does also affect the uptake of amino acids, fatty acids and potassium into the cells. It also helps regulate glycogen storage and fat metabolism by the liver.
What is happening to my cat when he or she has Diabetes Mellitus?
In a diabetic cat there is either too little insulin produced or the insulin does not work correctly on the cell wall. This inhibits the cells from absorbing the glucose from the blood stream across their cell walls. This effectively starves the cells. Even though there is plenty of glucose in the blood stream the cells think there is not enough. So the body starts to break down first muscle then fat reserves to make more glucose. This causes the blood glucose to increase further and the cat then starts to loose weight. The production of glucose from fat is very inefficient and can lead to a build up of some waste products ketone body's that can make the cat feel very unwell.
Why has my cat got diabetes?
The vast majority of diabetic cats are middle aged (8-13yrs) but the condition can occur in nearly any age of animal. We know that male neutered cats, Burmese cats and house/less active cats are more likely to get the condition.
The biggest known contributing factor by far though is Obesity. Being over-weight makes cells resistant to the effects of insulin. So the pancreas has to produce more insulin to have the same effect. If this increase in amount of insulin is unable to compensate for the resistance to its effects, then the animal will develop clinical signs of the condition. Also if this state of overproduction goes on for too long this can result in the pancreas becoming exhausted and so it can no longer produce insulin. There are other possible causes including chronic pancreatitis, genetic susceptibility, ameloid, drugs (e.g. steroids) and other diseases (e.g. acromegaly). It is more than likely that in many cats the condition is caused by more than one thing happening at the same time.
How do we diagnose Diabetes Melitis?
A suspicion of the condition is made on the presence of compatible clinical signs. Unfortunately none of these clinical signs are unique to diabetes and can also occur with many other common diseases of middle aged and older cats. To diagnose diabetes we must rule out other conditions that can have similar presenting signs (e.g. kidney failure, over active thyroid etc) and confirm the presence of high levels of glucose in the blood and in the urine. This is done by taking a blood sample and collecting a urine sample. A complication with diagnosis can be that stress in cats can cause a sudden increase in blood glucose in a non diabetic animal and can be severe enough in a small number of animals to cause glucose to appear in the urine. So in cats mild clinical signs we may need to do additional tests. This can be a urine sample taken at home in a low stress environment or an additional blood sample to measure Fructosamine. Fructosamine is not affected by the sporadic changes caused to the blood glucose level by stress. It increases in response to persistent a hyperglycaemia over the preceding 2-3weeks.
My cat has been diagnosed with Diabetes Mellitus what are my options for treating it?
The key is early diagnosis and rapid stabilisation. If we can get the animal stable before the diabetes has gone on too long and correct any underlying contributing conditions (e.g. loosing weight in an obese animal). The diabetes may be reversible in some animals so they will no longer be dependant on insulin injections.
- Correction of underlying or complicating factors.
Bacterial cystitis – It is a common problem found in diabetic cats and can lead to the cells being resistant to insulin (all diagnosed diabetics need to have a urine culture done). If found it is usually easy to treat.
Neutering – Entire female animals will need to be neutered as the hormones released during their cycle can cause instability in their diabetic control.
Dental Disease – In a similar way to cystitis the bacterial load in the mouth ascociated with dental problems can prevent the insulin from working so a diabetic animal will need to have any dental problems corrected.
Obesity – This leads to insulin resistance and so if an animal is overweight a weight loss program will need to be initiated.
- Dietary management
In most cases normal cat food is completely unsuitable for a diabetic animal (it is digested and releases its energy far to rapidly). Also whether the cat is under weight, normal or obese will need to be taken into account when choosing the most suitable diet. A high protein low carbohydrate diet is usually most suitable (such as Hill's m/d). Though in very obese animals a high fibre low calorie diet (such as Hill's r/d) may be more suitable. New diets need to be introduced slowly (over the course of 1-2 wks) by mixing with the cat's normal food. Though ideally the meals are given twice daily at or just after each insulin injection. Some cats will not adjust to this kind of change in routine and will need to be fed at their normal times or ad lib.
- Insulin Therapy
In almost all cases the cat will need to have twice daily (12hrs apart) injections of insulin. Caninsulin (which has an intermediate duration and is of a type called Lente) is the most commonly used insulin to start with. Though insulin behaves differently in different animals so it is sometimes necessary to change onto a different type. With training injecting your cat is usually easy to do. The insulin is kept in the fridge. When needed it is removed from the fridge and mixed by gently inverting the bottle 5-6 times (do not shake it). The required dose (measured in international units) is then drawn up into special insulin syringes (these are specific to a type of insulin). The needle is very small and most cats barely notice the injection which is done under the skin in the neck area. The syringe is then disposed of in the provided sharp safe.
There is a new method using an insulin pen and cartridges. This provides more accurate dosing and does not need to be kept in the fridge.
Even if the bottle of insulin has not been completely used it should be disposed of 28 days after opening and a new bottle used.
How do we stabilize and monitor the diabetes?
If the cat is unwell (sleepy, reduced appetite, ketones in the urine etc) initial stabilisation will need to be done in hospital at the surgery. If the animal is well in themselves and just has excessive drinking or weight loss this can usually be done at home. The cat is started on an initial starting dose of the insulin. This will be usually less than is required to stabilise the patient but as the effects of insulin vary a lot between different animals. It is important to start low and gradually increase the dose. Initial monitoring usually starts one week after the cat has been consistently having the insulin and new food. There are different methods of monitoring these have different advantages and disadvantages and often a combination are needed.
- Clinical Signs
If the cat has obvious clinical signs of diabetes then as we gain control these should start to disappear. E.g. a cat that has weight loss, is drinking a lot and urinating a lot should stop loosing weight and start to drink and urinate normal volumes of fluid. This is cheap and reasonably accurate in the initial stabilisation process but complicating problems like the animal urinating in the garden or having cystitis can cloud the picture.
- Glucose Curve
This involves taking 1-2 hourly blood glucose level using a hand held meter called a glucometer then plotting the results on a graph over a 12-24hr period. This can be done in hospital at the surgery or at home with correct training. This allows weekly changes to insulin if required allowing rapid stabilisation. It is the most accurate and allows us to spot complications early. The problem is that some animals become stressed in hospital which can cause abnormal glucose readings. Due to this it is better to be done by the owner at home but this is not always practically possible for various reasons.
- Fructosamine
Fructosamine is a compound measurable in the blood that gives an indication of how stable the blood glucose has been over the previous 1-3 weeks. It is usually unaffected by stress and is a relatively easy method of monitoring. Stabilisation is slow with this as adjustments can be only made every 3 wks which is not ideal. Also there are other things that can effect its level and in some individuals seems to be of no use giving erroneous readings.
- Urine Test
Urine glucose and ketone levels can be easily measured at home. Urine glucose is a very poor method of monitoring for stabilisation as even a very stable diabetic will still have glucose in the urine. It is mainly used to monitor unstable diabetics to pick up early the presence of ketones in the urine indicating ketoacidosis which may prevent a hospital stay.
- Spot Glucose
This is using the glucometer mentioned earlier to measure a one off glucose reading rather than doing a curve. This is almost useless as there are many things that can affect the blood glucose at one exact moment. It is some times used to check the blood glucose at the expected time of peak effect of the insulin check a patient does not become hypoglycaemic.
In most cases a combination of clinical signs and either glucose curves or fructosamine readings will be needed to assess the cat's response to the insulin. Depending on the results a dosage change may be indicated. If the cat is stable then monitoring is usually repeated every 3 months. If the animal is not stable then the insulin dose will be adjusted then the cat will be re checked 1-3wks later.
What problems can occur and what should I do?
Diabetes and the animals response to the insulin varies with the individual and changes in the home environment. We cannot exactly replicate the function of the pancreas with two injections a day of insulin at best we can keep the animal comfortable and clinically stable. Any change in thirst, appetite, urination, demeanour or weight gives an indication there may be a problem. It is much better to make an appointment. So it can be addressed early. So the animal can be restabilised with a minimum of visits, stress and cost. There are two complications that are a medical emergency and require immediate action and hospitalisation.
- Hypoglycaemia
This is where the blood glucose drops too low due to too much insulin usually occurs 4-6 hours after the insulin has been given. This causes weakness and wobbliness (look drunk as walking). The animal will be come mentally dull and lethargic. This then progresses to collapse, seizures and then coma. If the animal is still conscious feed it immediately. If the animal won't eat or is unconscious then rub a sugar solution or honey onto the animals gums. Phone the surgery to let us know you are coming and we will instruct you from there
- Ketoacidosis
If the diabetes is unstable glucose is not getting into the cells so the body thinks there is not enough and starts to produce more from fat stores. This creates waste products that make the animal feel very unwell called ketone bodies. Signs of this are lack of appetite, vomiting, lethargy, depression, dehydration and smelly breath. This requires hospitalisation to correct.
All diabetics have to be managed as individual cases there is no one thing that fits all. Some are very easy to stabilise some are not. We provide free nurse clinics to help and support you while you get used to injections and blood glucose monitoring.

A/N: Here's the end, folks. I hope you all enjoyed it, and I hope you like the future Draco's decided on for himself. Thank you all so much for reading, and I hope to entertain you again soon.
This is Harry/Draco, post-Hogwarts, though the slash content is extremely light. There are very vague suggestions of other relationships as well.
Disclaimer: Not mine.
The magical door in this is based on a door from Howl's Moving Castle, so it's not my idea, as cool as it is, but Diana Wynne Jones's.
Dedication: To Foodie, who still betas me despite my predilection for slash, and for FionaFawkes, who read and reviewed every single chapter, and gave me such excellent feedback. Also, for everyone who's read and loved my Harry/Draco. This one's for you.
Draco loved summer. It always felt like a new beginning. What better day to start his new life, he thought, as his car turned down the street to Harry's house, than the first day of summer? Home. He was going home. He couldn't wait to see Harry's face. In fact, he didn't want to wait any longer. He'd walk it. It would almost be faster. And at least then, he'd have something to occupy himself.
"Stop here," he told the driver. "I'll walk the rest of the way." The car came to a halt, and Draco got out and walked past two houses before turning onto the walk of Harry's home. It seemed strange that it had only been three months since he had last seen it. It felt like it had been forever. But it had been a good three months. He'd gotten a lot accomplished. He couldn't wait to show it all to Harry.
He knocked on the door, and it opened almost immediately. "Here's the…" Harry had money in his hand, but when he saw Draco, the hand froze in mid-motion. "Draco?"
Draco smiled. "Delivery?"
Harry nodded, a bemused expression on his face. "Yeah, Lucius got an O yesterday, so we thought we'd take the day off. Cooking and everything." He looked at Draco for a long moment. "What are you doing here?" He shook his head. "Not that it's not nice to see you, of course…"
"I have something to show you. If Remus can spare you, that is…"
"Sure." Harry stepped back. "Come on in, let me talk to Remus for a moment, and you can see your father…"
"Sure." Draco stepped inside, feeling a bit out of place for a moment before the feeling of 'home' came rushing back at him. He wondered if he could have ever possibly imagined that he'd want to come back here when he'd first arrived. But now, even after three months away, he just couldn't imagine living anywhere else.
Harry led the way to the kitchen, where Remus and Lucius were setting table. "Is something wrong? Did you need more money?" Remus asked when Harry entered the room empty-handed. Then he saw Draco following. "Draco?"
Lucius turned at Remus's exclamation. "Draco, what a pleasant surprise. I was beginning to think you'd fallen off the face of the earth. I assume Shacklebolt told you my score?"
"No, I really had no idea. I've been rather out of contact with just about everyone the last few months, I've been so busy. Congratulations." He held out a hand. Lucius approached him and shook it. They were nearly of a height, now, and Draco knew that within a few months, Lucius would be taller than him once more. It had been nice while it lasted, he supposed.
"Thank you. Perhaps you'd like to join us? I'm sure Harry ordered enough for an army. He always does."
"Actually, I'm here to spirit him away. I have something to show him." He turned to Remus. "If that's all right with you, Remus, that is."
Remus smiled. "I'm sure I can deal with your father on my own for a bit. Will you be returning with Harry?"
Draco smiled, "Quite." He would have said more, but he didn't want to give too much away yet. "Shall we, Harry?"
"Here's the money for the food, Remus. I'll see you later, okay?"
"Have fun," Remus replied as he put the money in a pocket.
Lucius smiled. "Don't do anything I wouldn't, boys…"
Draco rolled his eyes, but Harry flushed. "Come on, Harry. My car's waiting."
"Car? You drove?" Harry asked, surprised.
"No. I have a driver. I'm still working on my license."
They got out to the car, and Draco climbed in, then scooted over so Harry could sit beside him. "Nice, hm?"
Harry nodded. Draco had found the Bentley at an auction he'd been attending as a seller, and hadn't been able to resist. It was a near-black green, and the interior leather was all white, with smoke-grey carpeting. "I didn't want to wait before I got my license to use it, so I hired myself a driver."
Harry was still looking around, wide-eyed. "You had enough money to buy this?" he asked, amazed.
Draco laughed. "The Malfoys never lose everything, Harry. We always know how to squirrel something away, just in case."
"Right. So…where are we going?"
"It's a surprise. You'll see when we get there."
"Not even a hint?'
"Only if you want to spoil the surprise…"
Harry rolled his eyes, but said, "Fine," in an amused voice. He glanced out the window, but they were already out of the city, and there wasn't much to be seen, so he looked back at Draco. "So you've been working on this little surprise for three months?"
"Maybe. I had to do something with my time, after all…" Draco said, grinning at him.
Harry stiffened and looked away. "You could have stayed with us…"
"Would things have changed, Harry?"
"What do you mean? Things were fine as they were."
Draco shook his head. "No they weren't. We were both miserable. I've missed you, but at least I haven't had to wonder if this was the day you were going to get sick of me…"
"No. Harry—I…I thought about you a lot these last few months. Trying to figure out a way to prove to you that I knew what I wanted—you. But every time I came up with something, I realized you'd find a way to prove that meant nothing. Pansy's out of my life, but that was out of my control so that doesn't count. I haven't ever wanted anyone else but the two of you, and certainly not since I became your ward this past year. But I knew you'd just say that it was proximity that made the difference there, not that I wanted you specifically. You always manage to counter every argument I have. It's not fair." Draco looked out the window, flustered and a bit upset, and realizing he sounded a bit petulant. "I don't know if there is a way to convince you, Harry."
He heard Harry sigh beside him. "I'm not someone who has an easy time getting close to people, Draco. Probably the only reason I have friends at all is because they're so tenacious. As for my love-life, I've never had much luck. It's hard to open up to others when you don't know where to begin."
"You could let me try," Draco said, glancing at him out of the corner of his eye.
Harry seemed to fold in on himself at that. "I don't know if I could handle it, Draco…"
"Was the kiss that bad?"
"God, no…"
"My turn, then." Draco leaned towards him, sliding his hand behind Harry's head so he couldn't just pull away. "You're not going anywhere," Draco whispered, then moved that final inch remaining between them and kissed him.
It was nothing and everything like he remembered. Harry's mouth was just soft enough, a slight roughness that Draco tried to smooth down with the tip of his tongue. When Harry's mouth opened with a gasp at the contact, Draco slid his tongue inside, tasting Harry for the first time. He tasted the coffee Harry had drunk that morning, and a nutty flavor—peanuts, perhaps. Harry's tongue responded to Draco's, and it was all Draco could do not to climb into Harry's lap.
When he pulled away, Harry's eyes stayed closed for a long moment. "So?" he asked, terrified that Harry would pull away again.
Dark green eyes opened, and Harry looked at him as though he wanted to devour him. "Come here."
Draco grinned. "Gladly." He quickly unbuckled his seatbelt, and climbed onto Harry's lap, barely catching a breath before they were pressed together the heat of their arousal palpable between them. Harry had his head at an angle, lapping at Draco's lip, and biting it.
Harry pulled away. "Are you sure about this, Draco?"
Draco ground into his lap, showing him just how sure he was, and noticing that Harry wasn't much better off. "Yes, damn it, now kiss me."
"What about the driver?"
"He'll be fine. He knows where we're going…"
"No, I mean, what if he watches?"
"We'd better give him a good show, then," Draco whispered in his ear, licking along the outside of the ear before closing his teeth around the fleshy bit. "He'll have to find his own way of working off his interest, though. I'm not inclined to share."
"Draco!" Harry managed with a bit of a squeak. "I'm not putting on a show for the driver."
Draco sighed. "Then why did you want me over here?"
Harry flushed. "I'd forgotten where we were, actually."
Draco smirked, and leaned in close to Harry to whisper, "Good."
He settled on Harry's lap with his head on his shoulder, and spent the rest of the ride just touching or occasionally kissing Harry. It was bliss.
When they finally arrived at their destination, Draco climbed out of the car, then helped Harry out before turning to the driver. "We'll be fine from here. Thank you."
The driver nodded, and the car pulled away.
"Um, Draco…"
"Yes, Harry?"
"If we don't have the car, how will I get home?"
Draco grinned. "Don't you trust me?"
Harry sighed. "Of course I do, Draco, but…"
Draco put a hand to his mouth. "Then stop worrying, and let me show you what we've come to see." He put his hand on Harry's shoulder, and turned him so he could see the sign only two feet away. The Potter-Malfoy Orphanage and Wizarding Museum.
Harry's eyes went wide. "Draco?"
"Yes, Harry?" Draco said, not even bothering to hide the smirk at Harry's surprise.
"What is this?"
"What does it look like?"
"Well…It looks like Malfoy Manor, but…"
"You turned it into an orphanage?" Harry said, turning back to Draco with a look of amazement on his face.
Draco nodded. "It's what I've been working on since I saw you last. What do you think?"
"What do I think?" Harry laughed. "I think you're amazing, Draco."
Draco blushed. "Thank you. It's still got a ways to go, but the structural changes have been finished, and I've gotten the okay from the Minister. He's even appointed me a governmental staff—just a secretary at the moment, but still…"
Harry pulled him into a hug. "I don't know what to say, Draco. You have no idea what this means to me…"
"I might have some. Harry, if you hadn't taken me on, no one would have bothered. This doesn't even go halfway towards repaying that. It's about time this Manor was put to better use."
Harry kissed him, too overcome to say anything else.
Then Draco offered to show him around. The main part of the Manor on the first and second floors had been turned into display areas for the Museum. Most of the walls were blank, and the cases stood empty, but Draco assured him he already had several things that would be arriving soon, as well as a curator who would be able to deal with the upkeep.
The back of the house, and the East and West wings had been turned into the orphanage. The double beds in the guest rooms had been taken away and replaced with singles, and the main dining hall had been turned into a cafeteria for the children. The ballroom had been turned into a play area, with Muggle as well as Magical toys of all sorts lined up against the walls, just waiting for children to come and claim them.
"And I've got a governess and an administrator who will handle most of the needs of the children. The house-elves will be in heaven watching after them and cleaning and cooking for them. It's perfect," he smiled at Harry once they'd finished the tour.
"It really is amazing, Draco. I can't believe all the work you've managed in three months. When do the children start arriving?"
"Well, the Ministry is aware, of course, so they'll keep their eyes out for me, and I know of at least three children who should be arriving within a week." He paused, unsure how Harry would take his plans for Muggle children, but plowed ahead. "And I've got people in the Muggle government looking for orphans as well. No more Tom Riddles if I can help it."
"What do you mean?" Harry asked, sounding a bit concerned.
"Well, I've told them to look for children who seem to have magical abilities, and test them. If they find any, they're to bring them here." Harry looked as though he wanted to disagree with this idea, but Draco pressed on with it. "I'm not taking children from their families, Harry. Just the ones who don't have any. If they have to go without their families, at least they can grow up knowing what magic is."
"I suppose. It's just a bit dangerous, Draco. What if someone goes overboard? They see a kid they're sure is magical, and takes them away, not realizing that the child isn't an orphan for whatever reason, or worse, not caring? It could happen."
"That's why we'll be here, Harry. We'll interview the children personally. Does that help you feel better?"
"Me?" Harry said, surprised.
"Yes, you. Your name's on the plaque. Or weren't you paying attention?"
"But it's so far from my house, Draco…"
Draco grinned. "One more thing to show you." He moved off to the third floor staircase, which housed the old servants' quarters, the owlry, and the attic. Harry followed quickly behind.
"I've been working with someone Kingsley pointed me to in the Department of Mysteries. They helped me develop a spell. I hope you'll like it." He waved towards the door just off the stairwell. "Go on, open it," he smiled.
Harry looked at him warily, but moved to the door, twisting the knob and opening it cautiously. His eyes grew wide when he saw what was on the other side. "My house!" He turned to Draco. "Did you have it modeled after mine or…"
"Harry?" Remus's voice came from the door leading to the kitchen. He opened the door, Lucius following behind. "That was fast. I didn't expect you back for at least another hour."
Harry stared at him for a moment, then turned to Draco. "How…?"
"I told you. I got help. There's a simple password that will let you chose which place the front door opens into when you're in the house. But this way, no traveling," he smiled.
Harry blinked at him for a moment, then threw his arms around him. "You really are amazing, Draco."
Lucius sniffed. "Must you do that in front of decent people, Potter?"
"I'm thinking we'll be doing more than this," Harry murmured in Draco's ear, making him shiver at the air whispering across it.
"Promise?" he smiled.
"Oh, definitely." They made their way down the hallway as Lucius stepped out into the Manor, and glanced down the stairwell.
"Draco Lucius Malfoy, what have you done to the Manor?" they heard his outraged voice shriek before they closed the door of Harry's room behind them.
The End

Shy boy [Diving]
He always hide in a hard coral. Who is he?
It is too far, isn't it?
Because of the bottom blanketed with the table corals, I could not
