text: I recently found a new flavor of Spike and it is called Orange Gold! It still has a great taste and to me it tastes alot like Sunkist or orange Fanta but still no sugars, carbs, or calories. The berry one was my favorite until this one came out. I think Spike is only in 7-11 stores, or that is what my friend said. It says to only drink one a day but I drink 2-4 depending on how tired I am, just not one right after the other. Anyone know when the 16 oz Spikes are going to come out?

Touring the Killer Pizza Headquarters in New York, 14-year-olds Toby, Annabel and Strobe are sucked into a high-stakes case involving a teen runaway and a deadly Halloween sacrifice.
When Calanthe, a shape shifter, asks the teen monster hunters for shelter, Hidden Hills, Ohio, seems to be the perfect place for her, especially after she selects Toby as her guide into the world of normal teen behavior. When she gains the ability to shift into a giant snake, though, the mysterious Tall Man and his invisible rukh creature show up to hunt in Hidden Hills, but for the Killer Pizza team, surrender is not on the menu. In this sequel to Killer Pizza (2009), Taylor partially succeeds in ramping up the creepy factor, though the characters and plot still feel half baked. The Tall Man's mystic tracking snakes become embedded in Strobe's flesh in an undeniably icky turn of events, but the rukh's abundance of teeth and tendency toward invisibility are more comical than threatening. Characterization is stiff again, with Toby, Annabel and Strobe behaving as though the author has programmed them and set them on a rigid path.
The same recipe as before produces predictably similar results. (Horror. 10-14)

Jackie and the men in her life are cleaning up when Showtime's Nurse Jackie returns next month.

In a photo exclusive to The Hollywood Reporter, Jackie, Coop (Peter Facinelli), Mike Cruz (Bobby Cannavale), Eddie (Paul Schulze) and Kevin (Dominic Fumusa) are all cleaning up for the new season.
In addition, a new trailer reveals that Jackie's sobriety isn't the only massive change in store for the All Saints gang. Zoey (Merritt Wever) and Lenny (Lenny Jacobson) are engaged, Anna Deavere Smith's Akalitus is top dog no more and Paul learns the harsh truth from Kevin.
Check out the art and trailer, below. Which change do you think is the most surprising? Nurse Jackie's fourth season premieres Sunday, April 8 on Showtime.

I'm sharing a new pattern with you...my own! These mitts are warm and cosy, snug without being too snug. Durable, yet lovely. I love fingerless mitts. Maybe it's because my hands are almost always cold. But especially when I'm typing on my computer or using the mouse, my hands freeze! So, what's a knitter's answer to cold hands? Knitted mitts. This is Brown Sheep's Nature Spun Sport which I've overdyed in a plum color.
These are available as a free download on Ravelry. Here is the link to the pattern: Sojourn Mitts
I hope you'll try them and let me know what you think. I have a few more patterns coming in the weeks ahead, so I'm beyond excited to actually get started with my first one.

Former Sens executive sues team for $1.5M, alleges friction with Melnyk
'Melnyk would flippantly make comments ... often mused about replacing the entire executive management team'
A former Ottawa Senators executive is suing the team for $1.5 million, alleging, among other things, that owner Eugene Melnyk berated his management team following his return from medical leave in 2016 and amid poor ticket sales.
The lawsuit, filed last month by Peter O'Leary, said O'Leary was hired as the team's chief marketing officer and vice-president of ticket sales in September 2014.
He was fired in December 2016 and claims his dismissal was in breach of his contract and without just cause.
In the statement of claim, O'Leary alleges Melnyk's return to the team in early 2016, following his 2015 liver transplant, "created extreme difficulty for the members of the Ottawa Senators executive management team, including Mr. O'Leary.
"Mr. Melnyk would flippantly make comments about being unhappy with a particular aspect of the business and often mused about replacing the entire executive management team," according to the statement of claim.
"At times, he used profanity and leveled insults at executive team members, including constantly calling into question their competency. Mr. Melnyk sent abusive emails to the executive team and frequently threatened to dismiss them."
New CFO hired, responsibilities change
By August 2016 team CFO Ken Taylor had been let go and was replaced by Stephen Brooks. Taylor had reported to then-president Cyril Leeder, but Brooks reported directly to Melnyk instead, "greatly diminishing Mr. Leeder's authority," according to the statement of claim.
Brooks was also required to clear all O'Leary's decisions on ticket inventory, pricing and promotions.
Prior to the 2016-17 NHL season, the team made changes to his authority and job functions by offloading some responsibility onto others, the claim alleges.
"Even after the significant cuts to Mr. O'Leary's duties and responsibilities, removing his authority over, or ability to correct, the ticket sales issue, Mr. Melnyk nonetheless continued to berate Mr. O'Leary about poor ticket sales," the claim reads.
'All time lows under my watch'
"How and when did you get the title of 'Chief Marketing Officer'???" Melnyk asked in one of the emails to O'Leary included in the statement of claim.
"Peter — all time lows under my watch. Start thinking you are OFF all other projects other than selling immediate tickets. Drop the CMO title — MARKETING??? — Drop the 2017 stuff, how are you making us money??? I lose millions this way...You will force us to start laying off dozens of people the day after the seasons ...just to make up these sub par performances...We will see you Monday...if you are one of those executives that think there are holidays during the season end — forget it, I guess you have not spoken to Cyril about that yet..." reads another.
Other employees were copied on some of the email exchanges by Melnyk, but the statement of claim did not specify which employees.
Bonus issue
Leeder — who was replaced by Tom Anselmi in January — had given O'Leary favourable performance reviews in 2015 and halfway through 2016, according to the claim, and was entitled to a $20,000 bonus for "several milestones" he met in 2016.
Both Leeder and Taylor told O'Leary he would be paid, but the payment wasn't made that summer or fall, the claim alleges.
"Leeder confirmed on numerous occasions that Mr. O'Leary met the criteria entitling him to a bonus of $20,000. However, Mr. Melnyk had advised Mr. Leeder not to pay bonuses, including that of Mr. O'Leary," the claim reads.
Taken together, the changes to O'Leary's responsibilities, his title, and the still unpaid bonus meant that the team had "constructively dismissed" O'Leary by November 2016, the claim argues, and email exchanges with Melnyk didn't resolve the issue.
On Nov. 29, Leeder left O'Leary a handwritten note stating that the bonus would be paid that night, apologizing that it had taken so long. Outstanding employer RRSP contributions were also paid, according to the statement of claim.
Brooks, Melnyk said payment made 'in error'
On Dec. 5, Brooks sent O'Leary an email stating that the payment was made "'in error' and that he must immediately return it," according to the claim. O'Leary asked for an explanation and the next day O'Leary lost network access, including his work email and mobile phone, and was removed from the company directory.
After a series of exchanges between lawyers for O'Leary, lawyers for the Senators and Brooks, Melnyk sent an email to O'Leary on Dec. 8 "stating that Mr. O'Leary had to repay the bonus 'no later than 5 pm tomorrow,'" and that if he failed to do so, "the Ottawa Senators would have 'no choice but to terminate [his] employment for cause,'" according to the claim.
O'Leary responded the next day, saying he wouldn't because Leeder, Taylor and human resources confirmed he was entitled to the bonus, and that it had been paid.
Then, on Dec. 12, O'Leary's employment was terminated for refusing to return the bonus, among other reasons not laid out in the statement of claim.
"Mr. Melnyk signed the termination letter, alleging that Mr. O'Leary was 'dishonest' and that his performance was 'dismal as a result of, among other issues, [his] persistent absenteeism, insubordination and failure to cooperate with outside consultants,'" the claim reads.
Allegations not yet tested in court
O'Leary is seeking $650,000 (two years of his base salary in lieu of reasonable termination notice), $200,000 in lost bonuses, as well as $700,000 in various damages, arguing that "the Ottawa Senators' actions in this matter are of such a reprehensible nature that damages should deter the Ottawa Senators from any such future conduct," the claim reads.
None of the allegations against Melnyk and the team has been tested in court.
Melnyk, who is being represented by a lawyer from the Toronto-based firm Cassels Brock, filed a notice of intent to defend last month.

Where's the Nano diesel?
Tata is far from resting on the laurels they received for developing the 'world's cheapest car'. Instead they now have plans to make a diesel version of the Nano. Oh, and it's already delayed.
The Tata Nano's diesel version will get a 800cc-two cylinder diesel engine with around 40bhp of power and 100-110Nm of torque at around 1,500-2,000rpm. The car was supposed to be out by the last quarter this year, but chances are that it won't hit the roads till the end of 2013. According to industry sources, there are primarily three reasons for this delay.
Firstly, Tata's engineers are struggling to reach the fuel efficiency figure of 30kpl that they had benchmarked for the car in their internal tests. Considering that they advertise the Tata Indica eV2 with an efficiency of 25kpl, anything less for the Nano diesel would look disappointing.
Secondly, the car's noise, vibration and harshness(NVH) is still an issue, especially caused by the two-cylinder diesel engine. Adding sound deadening material would be the most natural method of reducing the noise, but it will add to the costs.
And thirdly, and most importantly the car's cost isn't as low as originally planned. With quality issues having plagued the original Nano petrol, giving it bad publicity, Tata engineers do not want to take any chances this time around. To realise the Nano's real potential, Tata Motors feels also it has to take the car a bit upmarket and distance it from its current 'cheap car' tag. So the car will be repositioned from cheap to a cheerful car.
Considering government's interest in getting diesel and petrol prices at par, they better do this fast before the carrot of a diesel engine ceases to look less appealing, right TopGearers? Speak up in the comments below.

You pay a lot of money to go to a Broadway show. You get there, and you stand, bathed in yellow light and anticipation, beneath the marquee, among all of the women in their sable coats and all the white-haired men in their two-button suits. You get caught up in the throng and are finally urged through the doors and into the lobby, and the lights are dim but intense and there are well-scrubbed ushers checking tickets and directing traffic, and you finally have a moment to breathe and you look at the poster and there's a photocopied sheet tacked to it saying something along the lines of "The role of Steve Blah Blah will be played, not by BIG NAME YOU REALLY PAID TO SEE, but SOME GUY YOU'VE NEVER HEARD OF." And you're stuck, unable to ogle Cheyenne Jackson, hoping that the understudy is worth ogling. Disappointment, on at least some level, is inevitable, even if the understudy burns the place down.
But understudies deserve their due. Theirs is not an easy or comfortable craft, and for every one that goes on to become a BIG NAME that PEOPLE WILL PAY TO SEE, there are dozens, maybe hundreds, that will linger on the fringes. And, you know, they're pretty talented, too. So. Monday night, Musicals Tonight will hold another in their At This Performance understudy spotlight series, at the Lion Theatre on West 42nd just off 9th, and the price is reasonable, and stories will be told.

Conway Witches, 1
Love that is forbidden is always the sweetest…
Elodie Conway is the owner of The Black Magic Café, where love and chocolate go hand-in-hand. She runs the enchanted café with her cousin Madison, and together, they help lovers tie the knot with the assistance of a few spells and some delectable chocolate recipes.
When journalist Jason Thibedeaux, who is also a werewolf from a rival family, runs a scathing critique of her business in his newspaper, the fur is sure to fly. He visits the café to sample their most famous culinary delights, and ends up wanting far more than what's on the menu. Can a Thibedeaux wolf and a Conway witch truly be fated to love each other for all eternity?
This is a previously published work. It has been edited for Evernight Publishing.
Elodie Conway was nothing like he had expected. As he ate her signature cake, all Jason wanted to do was savor her lips and run his hands down her very ample hips. Hers was a body a man could hold onto during sex and not break her. His wolf was awakened, and it prowled just beneath the surface. What Jason saw, he liked. Very much indeed…
The chocolate wound through his system, and with each bite, all other preoccupying thoughts faded into nothing. Images of him thrusting deep inside of her and winding his fist in her mane of dark hair flashed in front of his eyes, and he almost choked. His hands trembled as they reached for the bottle of water she'd set in front of him.
What the hell was that?
He twisted the cap and drank the entire small bottle in one go. As a journalist, he had little time for romance. A quick tumble in the moonlight during one of his runs, maybe, but this girl was something special––he didn't know why he didn't notice it before. Jason took another bite of cake and shifted his weight as his erection made its presence known. He could take her here, right over the top of the table, her heart-shaped ass in the air as he sank his cock deep in her pussy and fucked her until she screamed his name.
His wolf liked the idea. A whole fucking lot. Jason laid down the fork and smiled. Standing up on shaking legs, he picked up his now empty plate. Things were about to get interesting. This wasn't just any woman. He raised his nose to the air and scented her.
She was his fucking mate. How could he have been so blind? Did it take a hard-on for his wolf to get through to him? Apparently, because his wolf was ready to claim her by any means necessary, even it meant fucking her over the top of one of her own tables.

Elodie Conway is furious about a review that was written about her delightful chocolate shop, by someone who has never even made the effort to visit and taste her delectable morsels of desserts. Jason Thibedeaux was given a food review by his editor and by no means does he believe that love and magic have anything to do with each other.
Elodie dares Jason to come and taste what she has to offer and give him an opportunity to write a real and honest review, especially after tasting her popular Black Magic chocolate cake. What Elodie and Jason aren't aware of is how deep the feud between their two families – the Conway witches and the Thibedeaux werewolves really go.
Black Magic Café is part of the Conway Witches series. It's a great way to start reading the series because it tells about the history between the two families. I like a book with a good history and romance combined as it makes for a good thick plot. You're going to like Elodie's personality because she uses her heritage as a witch to not back down when Jason tries to push his werewolf aggression on her. If you like the heat between two paranormal figures, then Black Magic Café is a great book to read.

Black Magic Café was great. Erzabet Bishop did an awesome wrap-up in tying the novella together. The steamy scenes, sexual tension, and the chemistry between main characters Jason and Elodie was hot. The story was well written and the character dialogues immersed the reader in an awesome escape read. I liked how she made the characters believable throughout. The pacing was just right and the setting was very realistic so much that I could imagine going to The Black Magic Café and eating the Black Magic Cake. Find out how magic, destiny and chocolate drove Jason over the edge. Readers may want a sexy werewolf for themselves. This story is sure to deliver.
Werewolf, journalist Jason Thibedeaux and Elodie Conway, the owner of The Black Magic Café, may clash. But, to be mates with each other could be an explosive combination. Will the age-old curse on Thibedeaux and Conway come to an end? Will fate give Thibedeaux a witch as a fated mate? Read the story to discover their HEA.

Black Magic Cafe is a sinfully delightful read. We all know that chocolate is considered an aphrodisiac by many, but the chocolate at the Black Magic Cafe takes it so much further with actual love magic worked into the food there. A skeptic food reporter learns that the hard way in this short but steamy read. Enter a world of witches, werewolves, and long standing feuds between the two. The chemistry between the two leads is hot. I love how sassy Elodie is as the owner of the cafe. Jason is a yummy specimen of male too. Add in some chocolate and everyone is in for a good time. I give this sexy paranormal romp 5/5 for sheer fun!
Posted by TJ on 5th Jan 2016
I highly enjoyed this short story and was sad to reach the end. Elodie is a witch and cafe owner who uses her magical powers to create a delicious experience for those who purchase her treats. Jason is a food writer who basically wrote off her cafe (and magic in general) in a recent article without even trying her creations. Elodie assumes he has done so due to a century old feud between her family of witches and his wolf pack. Such is not the case and both are in for a surprise when they grudgingly share a piece of Elodie's magic infused cake. Over way too quickly, yet packed full of excellent writing, great plot, and feisty and fun characters, I'm looking forward to digging into more by author Erzabet Bishop. I was given an ARC in exchange for my honest review.

A short yet sexy read! Erzabet Bishop is a pro and packing a punch in a few pages. Jason made the mistake of writing about Elodie's cafe without first visiting. Now he is here to write a full piece on chocolate and love. Elodie wants to prove he is wrong a little innocent chocolate might be just want the doctor ordered.

Williams Sonoma describes a panini grill as a small counter top appliance that can be used to make panini sandwiches. Panini grills can also be used as small indoor grills for cooking chicken, hamburgers and vegetables. Panini sandwiches are easily recognizable by the striped toasting on the bread.
Panini grills are often made of cast aluminum plates that have a nonstick surface. Some models come with removable panini plates that can be replaced with smooth plates, so the panini grill can be used as a griddle. Other models fold out, making the panini grill into a basic electric grill that can be used in the kitchen.

|really?! (7:55am est thu aug 26 2004)
i think the tablet pc thing was an april fool's joke that just got way outta hand.
but i guess redmond is gonna keep it around till every last one of pc maker stock is sold.
then dump it.
|yes. really (9:46am est thu aug 26 2004)
there have been quirks (you try living with a crusoe processor) but in general i am v happy with the tablet i have now had for 18 months. smallest, lightest, long lasting (from a battery perspective), tough notebook pc i have used. looking forward to the update though… – by hui
|not a pda (10:09am est thu aug 26 2004)
this shouldn't really be in the pda section.
the 2005 update is a nice add-on to an already good platform. i'm looking forward to more updates to increase the productivity on my tablet.
i still think ms needs to advertise the tablet form-factor more though. only one person out of every hundred or so i talk to even has the faintest of ideas what a tablet is.
|great update (11:03am est thu aug 26 2004)
the update is great, handwritting is much improved and i didn't think it was bad in the first place.
i still can't believe the tablet hasn't taken off but their isn't really any marketing for them except in high end business magizines.
i'm surprised that the marketing campaigns are tooled to people that would really go for them.
the college market and high school market is where to go at it, but it would have to be done right. i have never seen much advertising in the college market to students only to faculty and staff.
one day the company's will get it or will hire on someone with college marketing experience. it greatly surprised me this year that neither hp, ms, or any of the other companies advertised or had the tabletpc in any of their college mailers.
its a shame, businesses will be the last to impliment them because of cost but some students have extra cash and it could turn into a great fad. – by sbainbridge

can anyone recommend a good tablet that has a banias or dothan chip right now? – by powerbooker

the best slate right now is possibly the motion with the view anywhere screen.
the best convertable is possibly the toshiba m200. i myself own a pentium dothan 2.0 ghz with 1gb of ram. it is beautiful to use it in my college class – by huy33
|tablet naysayers… (11:52pm est thu aug 26 2004)
i've been using my tablet for about a year now (an acer c102 tci). prior to purchasing acer tablets my company trialled the compaq/hp tc1000 (so i can empathise with your hui. code morphing patches didn't do dick for the crusoe proc's performance).
tablets are great for mobility. i look at people still recording info on paper, who then can't find info they want it. i really couldn't live without mine.
as for tablets going mainstream, i'm sure the general perception is, the increased functionality gained from using a tablet is not worth the extra premium that must be paid. when the premium comes down, every new laptop/notebook will be a tablet. and naysayers just can't read the writing on the wall.
|flaweless (12:39am est fri aug 27 2004)
upgraded my toshiba tablet in less than an hour. great updates, no problems whatsoever. i'm running every possible program i can cram on this thing, vs.net to office. no issues at all. what's all the bitchin about anyway? – by nolinux…please

|First appearance
Act 5: Vision (as a spirit)
Avatar Roku was the incarnation of the Avatar immediately preceding Avatar Aang. He was born in the Fire Nation. Benign in spirit, Roku served as a guiding force for Aang throughout the series. Roku possesses an animal companion, a red dragon named Fang, which serves him in the same way as Appa does Aang.
Roku was a wise and merciful Avatar with good intentions; however, he himself admitted that he was indecisive. Roku's old friendship with Fire Lord Sozin prevented him from halting Sozin's imperial ambitions, directly causing his death. Thus, he was unable to prevent The War, which would last for over one hundred years. Avatar Aang inherited the burden of rectifying the war-torn world, and Roku firmly believed Aang was destined to redeem his mistakes.
In his youth, Roku and Prince Sozin were best friends and even shared the same birthday, which they celebrated together. By the time they were teenagers, they were both likely Firebending Masters, given Roku's secret status as the Avatar, and the Royal Family's natural affinity for their element.
At the party celebrating their sixteenth birthdays, Roku is told by the Fire Sages he is the Avatar, and the two friends are forced to separate as Roku goes to master the other three elements. Before leaving, Sozin comes by to talk and is told by Roku that the sages told him to bring nothing, as the Avatar needed no material goods. By this statement Sozin gives him a gift: the headpiece worn by the Crown Prince of the Fire Nation, hoping that he was at least allowed to have that.
Avatar Journey
Mastering the Other Elements
Afterwards, Roku goes on his Avatar journey and trains under masters of the other three bending arts. To learn Airbending, Roku traveled to the Southern Air Temple. One of Roku's good friends was none other than Monk Gyatso, Aang's guardian and mentor. Roku comments that Aang's relationship with Gyatso years later proves that some friendships are able to transcend lifetimes. After years of training, Roku had mastered Airbending and he traveled to the Northern Water Tribe to learn Waterbending from his teacher. This task was especially hard for Roku seeing as how water is the natural opposite of fire; yet in time he mastered it as well. After mastering Waterbending, Roku traveled to the Earth Kingdom to learn Earthbending, and he became very good friends with his teacher, Sud.
Mastering the Avatar State
- To see the clip detailing this story go to Escape from the Spirit World Page.
Sometime after mastering Earthbending, in 85 BG, he then spent five months in recession to the Fire Temple on Crescent Island, trying to master the Avatar State under the guidance of Fire Sage Shyu's grandfather, Fire Sage Kaja. After growing impatient with the failed meditation attempts, he tried using the summer solstice sun to push him into the Avatar State easily. It worked, but he was unable to control his powers and ended up destroying the upper half of the Fire Temple before Kaja managed to free him from the Avatar State.
After this incident, Roku became more patient with his training, and eventually mastered the Avatar State completely. He also rebuilt part of the temple, and carved new underground passages out of the island's magma.
Return to the Fire Nation
Twelve years after leaving his country for his Avatar journey, Roku has become a fully-realized Avatar. He returned to the Fire Nation to reunite with his friend Sozin, who has since become Fire Lord. Roku winds up marrying his childhood sweetheart, Ta Min, with Sozin taking the position of his best man. At the wedding, Sozin asks to speak with Roku in private. He begins telling Roku that he has been thinking hard about the state of the world, and that the Fire Nation is going through a period of great prosperity. He proposes to Roku that together, the two of them could spread this wealth to the world by expanding the empire. Roku is horrified by this proposition, and tells Sozin that the Four Nations are meant to be kept separate and that he should not think of this again. In the following years, Roku and Ta Min had a child, though nothing else about this child is revealed.
At least twenty years later, however, Roku discovers that Sozin has gone ahead with his plan, and set up colonies in the Earth Kingdom. He confronts his old friend, and commands him to stop his aggression, which Sozin replies that loyalty lies with him and the Fire Nation. When Roku declines this, it leads Sozin to attack him. The two engage in a battle, with Roku easily overpowering his old friend and finally destroying most of the palace and defeating Sozin. He decides to spare Sozin's life for the sake of their past friendship, but not before warning him never to move forward with his plans again, or it would result in his "permanent end".
Twenty-five years later, Roku's home island is consumed in a volcanic eruption so massive that the Fire Lord can see and feel it from a hundred miles away at the palace. Roku attempts to contain the destruction, using his Bending and even going into the Avatar State; however, the awesome power of the volcano proves to be too powerful, even for the Avatar. At that moment, Sozin flies in on his dragon to assist his old friend. The two use their Bending to try to contain the lava flow, but are hindered by poisonous gases, which eventually overwhelm Roku, leaving him lying on the ground and begging for his old friend's help. Sozin suddenly realizes, however, that Roku's death would allow him to fulfill his plans, and leaves his old friend to die along with his dragon Fang, who curls up with Roku as he is engulfed in a pyroclastic flow. Twelve years later, Sozin begins The War. However near his death, the old Fire Lord regrets leaving Roku, his former best friend, to die.
Appearance in Pathik's Life
After Pathik faints of guilt after the Dai Li kill Lu Ten, Roku appears to him in a dream. He tells him to travel to the Eastern Air Temple, where he would wait for Aang and train him when he got there. Pathik does as he asks. Later, when the Guru finishes unblocking his chakras, Roku appears again simply to nod in approval.
Appearances in Aang's Life
A century after Roku's death, Aang was able to communicate with him by visiting the Fire Temple that Roku called home 112 years ago. There Roku informed Aang of the impending return of Sozin's Comet. He also described Fire Lord Ozai and the Fire Nation's ability to harness the comet's energy to finally win the war. He gave Aang the task of mastering the four elements and defeating the Fire Lord before the Comet arrives. Roku also manifested himself in Aang to defeat a group of Firebenders attempting to kill the young Airbender. He awakened the dormant volcano directly underneath the temple, destroying the temple before the solstice ended. [1] Months later, the lava still flows from that event. [2]
He has guided Aang several times since, appearing to Jeong Jeong to persuade him to teach Aang Firebending, [3] offering critical wisdom in the ways of the Spirit World during the Siege of the North in order to defeat the invading Fire Navy and save the Moon Spirit, [4] and most recently, revealing to Aang the nature of his Avatar State. [5] He can thus be seen as a kind of mentor or spirit guide for the current Avatar, Aang; this may be because Aang has no appointed teacher (the Air Nomads having been killed), or it may be possible that all Avatars have been guided by their previous incarnation through their lives.
Roku appeared to Aang when he thought he failed when Ba Sing Se fell. Roku said the failure was really his because he should have foreseen the war and taken steps to prevent it. He then tells Aang he believes it is his destiny to save the world and redeem him. He would later reveal his history with Fire Lord Sozin to him. [2]
Aang communicates with Roku prior to the arrival of Sozin's Comet. He feels insecure about killing Fire Lord Ozai, as he was taught by the Air Nomads to respect all life. While understanding Aang's discomfort, he insists that Aang must kill Ozai should it be necessary to save the world. He tells Aang that it was his neglect to end Sozin's life that started the war, and that Aang must not make the same mistake by sparing Fire Lord Ozai's life. Aang searches for advice from three other Avatars, hoping for a more satisfying answer. [6]
Connection to Prince Zuko and Princess Azula
When Zuko angrily accuses Iroh of having sent him the message, and then demands to know the point, as the testament did not even reveal anything about Sozin's death. Iroh explains that the message that Zuko must find out about his great-grandfather's death did not refer to his paternal ancestor, Sozin, but his mother's grandfather, who was none other than Avatar Roku. Iroh then produces the lost crown prince's headpiece, once worn by both his great-grandfathers, and gives it to a stunned Zuko, explaining that, as he has both Roku and Sozin's blood in his veins, he has the power to redeem their family by choosing which of their paths to follow. However, Azula is, as of yet, unaware of this connection to the Avatar. [7]
As the Avatar, Roku was able to perform all four bending arts and utilize the Avatar State. When he was adult he was a powerful bender in all the elements, able to perform blasts of all elements one by one and hold them simultaneously. Among his abilities, he could bend lava and freeze it with his breath, move huge amounts of earth or water, quickly tunnel through earth, fly via an Air Nomad glider or mini-tornado, and create a shield of air large enough to cover a whole village. His control was not only powerful but precise- he could leave a single rock pillar standing while he leveled a building, and melt chains on others while leaving them unharmed.
As well as having tremendous control over the elements, Roku was an able combatant. When Fire Lord Sozin tried to strike him down, Roku defeated him so quickly that Sozin did not have the chance to throw a second blow. When channeled through Aang, he easily defeated a large number of firebenders.

We as Americans need to address this mortality rate right now. There's no time to wait. One of the reasons this is happening is because of the lack of affordable or accessible healthcare in the conservative states. Couple that with a lack of exercise, stress, and poor diet and we have a real problem on our hands. Free healthcare for all. Cheaper nutrition. No more junk subsidies.
The U.S. Needs to do a lot more about rising female mortality rates, and should be a leader among women's issues. I'm a firm believer that a country is only as healthy and productive as its women, since women are the catalyst behind all things good, including men, so doing this should be a high priority.
I saw the articles in the Washington Post and on MSNBC that may have led to this question. It seems like neither of these articles could say why this increase in female mortality rates has happened, and why it is only impacting females and not males. The increase is significant though and it is important that the US looks into the reasons behind this. All that can really be done at this point is more research. Once the cause has been clearly identified, further actions, if needed, can be discussed.
There is not really anything the U.S. can do about it, except maybe give women training on how to use firearms. Criminals break laws and making new laws doesn't work because criminals don't obey laws. If this question is not referring to crime, then also no because it has no business doing so.

Physical side effects of quitting smoking include short-term symptoms as a result of nicotine withdrawal, as well as long-term health benefits, claims Healthline. Nicotine cravings, anxiety, depression, weight gain and increased feelings of anger and irritability are commonly reported by people experiencing nicotine withdrawal, reports the National Cancer Institute. Long-term physical benefits to quitting smoking include a regained sense of smell, improved ability to breathe during activity, and fading of the yellow color on teeth, notes the American Cancer Society.
When someone stops smoking tobacco, levels of nicotine in the body drop, causing addiction withdrawal symptoms, explains Healthline. Physical side effects vary according to the individual's level of addiction, the length of time she smoked, and the frequency and quantity of cigarettes smoked. Nicotine withdrawal symptoms sometimes include sweating, coughing, tingling in feet and hands, headaches and nausea. Withdrawal usually begins a couple hours after smoking the last cigarette, peaks after two or three days, and is gone after a couple weeks, though some experience withdrawal as soon as 30 minutes after the last tobacco and for several months later.
About two hours after the last cigarette, blood pressure returns to a normal level, according to Healthline. In about two hours, nerve endings for smell and taste begin to re-grow. After about two weeks of not smoking, lung function improves significantly.

Alison new student intern at Tipperary Racecourse
Alison Brassil, from Newmarket on Fergus in County Clare, has been selected as the Tipperary Racecourse Student Intern, through the Horse Racing Ireland (HRI) Internship Programme, commencing a twelve-week work placement at the track on Wednesday, June 8th.
This is third year of the HRI Student Internship Programme which was launched in November 2013. Over 150 applications were received from throughout the country with 50 students shortlisted and 25 selected for interview.
Horse Racing Ireland has appointed seven interns for the summer season of 2016. Four of the student interns will work in the HRI-owned racecourses: Fairyhouse, Leopardstown, Navan and Tipperary and three will be based in the HRI head office at Ballymany, Kildare, with two in the Marketing Department and one in TOTE Ireland.
Alison has just completed a Bachelor of Science degree in Equine Science at the University of Limerick and will be graduating in August. She has previously gained experience working in the breeding industry for Coolmore America at Ashford Stud in Kentucky and most recently for Paul McCartan at Ballyphilip Stud in Croom, Co. Limerick. Alison has also worked at bloodstock sales for consignments such as Eaton Sales, Jamie Railton, the National Stud and the Aga Khan Studs.
As part of her role at Tipperary Racecourse, Alison will be required to assist in many areas of racecourse operations such as marketing, sales, social media, website maintenance, raceday operations and the promotion of events over the summer season.
Welcoming Alison, Andrew Hogan, Manager of Tipperary Racecourse said, "I am delighted to welcome Alison to the team at Tipperary. She joins us at a very exciting time, as we are celebrating 100 years of racing at Tipperary Racecourse and there will be plenty of opportunities for her to gain valuable, practical experience."
Alison Brassil commented, "The HRI internship at Tipperary Racecourse is an excellent opportunity for me to learn more about the racing industry and develop my career as a horse racing professional. Working in the breeding industry has ignited my passion for racing and I am excited to gain experience in the racing sector as I want to learn about all aspects of the thoroughbred industry. I hope to develop the skills I have learnt throughout my degree by putting them to the test in the diverse daily tasks that I'm sure Tipperary Racecourse will have to offer throughout the summer."

Agency: Berlin Cameron & Partners/Red Cell, New York
Star Rating: 2.5
There's a song in one of the commercials from Coke's new "Real" campaign that asks the musical question: "Real compared to what?"
Ambitious new work
The ambitious, intriguing new work from (mainly)
|Penelope Cruz's belch sounds real enough in this spot.
So far, so good. One ad shows a gorgeous celebrity babe in a tank top suggestively chugging a full 12 ounces -- only it's not Cindy Crawford, in Pepsi super slo-mo. It's Penelope Cruz, in real time, and when she's done she burps. Another shows a college kid realistically poaching a care package sent by his roommate's mom. Another shows Courtney Cox in a bit of marital impatience with her hubby David Arquette. Another, to the tune of "The Girl From Ipanema," shows Nascar-loving women ogling the drivers' butts.
Because, yo, let's get real.
But, uh, why?
OK, let's just say the consumer research for such far-flung categories as blue jeans and beer (Budweiser's "True") and prime-time TV is correct: We demand the real deal. Swell. What does that have to do with Coca-Cola? What is there about a soft drink that is more or less authentic than anything else? Is it the real high-fructose corn syrup? The real caramel coloring? The real CO2-tank-infused carbonation? Apart from a dash of cola-nut extract, a can of Coke is about as unreal a beverage experience as you can have. Strange, in this day and age, to call attention to such, shall we say, non-essential ingredients.
Desperate for a message
AdReview surmises that the Coca-Cola Co., in its desperation to find a coherent message and a consistent style, was bedazzled by the coincidence of the unambiguous research data with nostalgia for the '70s-era theme "The Real Thing" (and the world cola domination that accompanied it). Ah, and what was "The Real Thing" real in comparison to?
Why, Pepsi, of course.
But here's the thing: That was 30 years ago. Not only have the intervening decades rendered silly the juxtaposition of "real" and soda pop, they have utterly obliterated any consumer perception of Pepsi as a knockoff or Johnny-come-lately. The best customers are 15 years old, for crying out loud. They won't get the sly Cindy Crawford allusion, much less the Nascar one to the 1963 Diet Pepsi ad with a bossa nova jingle called "The Girls Girlwatchers Watch."
'Real' celebrities
And by the way, by what standards of "real" do Courtney Cox, David Arquette, Penelope Cruz, drivers Tony Stewart and Bobby LaBonte, the R&B diva Mya and hip-hop star Common qualify as just folks? Even if the "Real" theme had the same resonance it once did, the weird contradiction inherent in the celebrity casting undercuts the whole premise.
This campaign is a lot hipper than what Coke has done lately, but that's not saying a great deal. What continues to be missing is the focus on the product, on the intrinsic qualities of Coca-Cola that may not make it un-artificial, but nonetheless damn good with popcorn or a burger -- which, if we're not mistaken, is the real reason people buy the stuff.

Tokyo-based Manuscript released on Sunday a new version of the "Kare Log" – meaning "boyfriend log" – after the original application attracted hundreds of complaints from people who discovered it had been surreptitiously installed on their phones, while software security firm McAfee identified the app as a "Potentially Unwanted Programme".
Japan's communications ministry has even waded into the debate on privacy, saying in a statement that "The consent of a tracked individual is very important. There were problems with the way that Kare Log was advertised."
First launched on August 30, the application could be installed into a smartphone and a computer could then be used to monitor the whereabouts of the device – and, presumably, the owner, through its GPS data.
The basic charge was Y525 (£4.31) a month, which provided the location of the phone and the amount of energy left in the phone's battery. For the £15.83 "platinum plan," however, the member would be able to access the list of all the calls that had been made from the phone, the dates, times and durations, as well as other applications that had been installed.
Critically, the application did not show an icon on the screen when it was being utilised, meaning that the owner of the smartphone might not even realise that it had been installed.
The initial version of the service was downloaded more than 24,000 times in 10 weeks, Yoshinori Miura, president of Manuscript, told The Daily Telegraph. The new version has already been snapped up 500 times in less than 24 hours, he said.
"We had around 60 complaints by email but I cannot count how many phone calls we took from people who were unhappy that it had been installed on their phones," Miura admitted, adding that it had also been criticised in online forums.
"The first version was mainly targeted at women who wanted to know where there husband was," said Miura. "But the new version requires a password to access the information and we see it as a way in which couples can share information with each other."
The new service is described as a "location service for lovers," the company said.

FRND – Friend (DeModa Remix)
New York City producer and DJ David Johnson, better known as DeModa, has taken the EDM and electronica world by storm with is innovative and unique take on production. Unlike that of a traditional DJ, DeModa incorporates live instrumentation into his work, such as keyboards, guitar and drums; manipulating them with virtuosic flair. He produces his own material and crafts remixes for popular artists such as M83 and Porter Robinson, enhancing their material while retaining his unmistakable originality. On his most recent project, DeModa takes on "Friend" by FRND. Embellished with wobbly bass lines and Eastern-influenced guitar lines, the remix adds charisma and animation to the track while preserving the intimacy of the lyrics and vocals. With his inventive melodic approach, DeModa is one of a handful of new producers pushing remix standards to new levels.

In production at the Chakan plant and available in the country, the full-size 4-door luxury car is currently has a starting price of Rs 89 lakh. A new 2012 S Class version is in the making and the same has been spotted testing recently in Germany.

The materials inside and the overall interior design is also expected to undergo a drastic change. A new infotainment system with advanced navigation system is in offing as well.

The proposed makeover is expected to compete well with Audi A8, Jaguar XJ and BMW 7 series cars. As per the spyshots of the camouflaged version that reveals more than it hides, the new S Class has almost the same proportions. The overall design has changed a bit and is more on the line of Mercedes Benz A and Mercedes Benz B class. The power inside the bonnet though hidden but it is expected that the German car maker is developing a new hybrid and electric powertrain for the new S Class.

from The Century Dictionary and Cyclopedia
- n. A net used to catch fish.
Sorry, no etymologies found.
I'll take the Ultra fish-net, in the camo pattern, with the fly!
He's as unique as his getup: fish-net biking gloves, peanut shell earrings, a hat with a bat through it, stuffed alien on his shoulder, and the New Balance shoes he uses to climb 1,500 steps a game.
Colorado Rockies Beer Vendor "Earthman" Wins Hearts, ESPN Profile
That's why it was not just OK, but it actually made sense to have the 51 contestants photographed in bust - and leg-revealing, bras, panties, fish-net stockings and open men's shirts, while laying on beds and chaise lounges, for their pageant promo shot.
Bonnie Fuller: Oh no! Miss USA Contestants Look Like Porn Stars not Pageant Queens!
Granted, it is intriguing that AL plays both roles, or all three if you count the goth as different from the fish-net diva. but, you know, in the earlier one her highest aspiration was to be with the boys, too, and be accepted by boys, and make boys laugh and like her. still a cute kid and all, and she probably knows what will sell her records.
In its sights were targets as diverse as rappers and their lyrics and videos, pop stars such as Christina Aguilera, advertisers, publishers, clothes designers (G-strings emblazoned with "wink wink" for seven to 10-year-olds) and doll manufacturers (Bratz with their miniskirts and fish-net stockings).
Her skin was creamy white, as though she never saw the sun, and her skinny legs were often encased in black fish-net stockings, the rage in 1967.
