Police will set up an information stand on Saturday night in a bid to find the man behind a brutal rape of a young mum in North Melbourne.
The 23-year-old woman was seriously injured in the June 30 attack and spent several days in hospital.
She had been out celebrating the birth of her first child with friends when she was stalked, bashed and raped on her walk home.
Senior Sergeant Sharon McKinnon from the Sexual Crimes Squad said anyone with information should contact Crime Stoppers or attend the information caravan on Saturday between 9pm and midnight on Victoria Street, North Melbourne.
Uniformed police will also flood the King Street area in the CBD with flyers, in the hope a member of the public can identify the man from an image taken off CCTV footage.
"Someone out there knows who this person is," Sen Sergeant McKinnon told reporters.
"We're so reliant on public assistance," she said.
"This person in this photo holds the key for us to be able to resolve the case."
Sen Sergeant McKinnon said the victim was suffering ongoing trauma and was being comforted by family.
The offender is described as being in his mid-20s, about 175cm tall, with dark or olive skin, stubble, short dark hair and wearing jeans, a black zip-up leather jacket and white runners.
He had an an accent, possibly Middle Eastern.
A 28-year-old Reservoir man was arrested a week ago but released pending further inquiries.

The question posed by ''Image World: Art and Media Culture'' is why the Whitney Museum of American Art has gone to such lengths to say so little about something so obvious.
Roughly 100 works, including several large-scale video installations, have been brought together for this exhibition, the goal of which seems to be little more than to reiterate that artists in the last 30 years have responded variously to the forces of mass-media culture.
Paintings from the 1960's by Ed Ruscha, Tom Wesselmann, Robert Rauschenberg and, most significantly, Andy Warhol and John Baldessari set the stage for a survey of recent art that encompasses Barbara Kruger and David Salle, Jenny Holzer and Mark Tansey, Robert Longo and Gran Fury, Ashley Bickerton and Cindy Sherman.
This is, in other words, something of a grab bag. There is little evidence that complex curatorial choices were made, little acknowledgement that the differences among the artists represented may be vastly more important than their similarities.
Surely what separates, for example, Jeff Koons's sculpture of Michael Jackson from Hans Haacke's simulation of an advertisement for American Cyanide is more significant than the fact that both works reinterpret populist imagery. ''Image World'' glides over such distinctions, as if the organizers of the exhibition wanted to avoid dealing substantively with the fundamental political and philosophical issues raised by the works they chose to display, and instead preferred to dwell in superficialities.Continue reading the main story
The show is, perhaps as a consequence, full of oddities. Why, for instance, are Matt Mullican and Laurie Anderson, both of whom deserve prominence in any exhibition dealing with mass-media culture, represented by works of arguably tangential significance? ''Image World'' at times gives the impression of having been thrown together.
Yet there are a few artists who manage to come off well. Nam June Paik's gigantic and splendid video installation dominates the entrance to the exhibition. Mr. Wesselmann's and Mr. Rauschenberg's works, in this context, attain a certain august stature.
Most significantly, ''Image World'' demonstrates that a great deal of the most astute and acutely political work over the last two decades has been done by women. Ms. Kruger, Ms. Levine, Ms. Sherman, Ms. Holzer as well as Annette Lemieux, Lorna Simpson, Barbara Bloom, Sarah Charlesworth and Hannah Wilke, are among them.
But this fact emerges only obliquely. It is by no means a stated theme of ''Image World,'' which, if it can be said to demonstrate any particular sympathy, seems to have the most in common with artists like Mr. Koons and Mr. Longo. This is to say that it assumes a posture of distance from its subject. The mass media come in for criticism from several artists in this show, but the exhibition itself, especially with its elaborate layout, has something of the look and feel of an advertisement.
It has been organized by John G. Hanhardt and Lisa Phillips of the Whitney and by Marvin Heiferman, a guest curator. As for the essays in the catalogue that accompanies ''Image World,'' it should be mentioned that they make perfunctory references to Marshall McLuhan, Michel Foucault, Walter Benjamin and Theodor Adorno, as well as the predictable bow to the French philosopher Jean Baudrillard, whose ideas on the media and contemporary life have captivated certain fashionable art circles and who was clearly an inspiration for this exhibition.
''Image World: Art and Media Culture'' remains at the Whitney Museum of American Art, Madison Avenue at 75th Street, through Feb. 18. It is sponsored by the Polaroid Corporation. Nachume Miller E. M. Donahue Gallery 560 Broadway (at Prince Street) Through Dec. 2
Nachume Miller continues to paint abstractions that can be described as a cross between J. M. W. Turner's images of storms and Jackson Pollock's drips. There's also a hint of Leonardo da Vinci's cloud drawings in the way Mr. Miller covers his canvases with dense patterns of curved interlocking lines.
The denser, the more complex Mr. Miller's surfaces, the stronger the impressions they make. And so among the several large-scale paintings in this latest show, perhaps the most handsome are his dramatic ''Brown Landscape,'' which comes closest of all to Turner, and his ''Blue Landscape, No. 41,'' which is shaded in a variety of colors that can bring to mind one of Monet's paintings of waterlilies.
But color is otherwise not Mr. Miller's strong suit, and at times he is frankly undone by it. In one untitled work and in another called ''Vertical,'' he slathers on stripes of red and orange and other bright hues that seem intended to suggest something like the northern lights but that have a cheap, theatrical effect.
Among what else is on view, the best may be a work of pencil on paper, which includes wax that drips haphazardly down the sheet. It has a vigor that is lacking in the other drawings and in the less successful of the paintings.Continue reading the main story

This week's Romance Roundup includes a guy who gets help investigating his father's murder, a woman who gets a Highlander's protection, and a nurse who gets a gig caring for a ridiculously sexy philanderer.
Surrender to the Highlander, by Lynsay Sands
Edith Drummond wakes up from a health problem to find several hunky Highlander guys taking care of her. (#lifegoals) The only one she's drawn to, though, is Niels Buchanan. He becomes infatuated with her right away, and wants to protect her from the mysterious, hidden figure who keeps trying to poison her. Niels will need to deal with Edith's family's enemies if he's going to keep her alive and embark on a beautiful, sexy life with her. Oh, and he also needs to do whatever he can to prevent her from going to a nunnery. (This is fair, as both he and Edith want to do very un-nun-like things together.) Will they manage to dodge the bad guys? And will Edith get to untie Niels' kilt over and over and over and over (and over) again? This is the fifth book in Sands' Scottish Highlanders series. (Available in hardcover, paperback, audiobook, and NOOK on January 30.)
Beautiful Tempest, by Johanna Lindsey
The very gentle-bred Jacqueline Malory recently had some major adventures that involved a ship and a handsome pirate, and she's about to have some more! Jacqueline and her older brother are taken as "guests" on the ship of a very mysterious man—and that ship is sailing away from England, which could either be really good or really bad. (Seems like any time with this mysterious man would be really good!) Our gal thinks he might be a pirate, but the truth is he might actually be a nobleman who is looking to get his honor back. That said, he's quite intrigued by the tasty morsel that is Jacqueline and doing some not-so-honorable things with her. This is the latest book in Lindsey's passionate Malory-Anderson series. (Available in paperback on January 30.)
Beyond Danger, by Kat Martin
Texas mogul Beau Reese has a lot to deal with right now, and it pretty much started when his father knocked up a teenage girl. (Yup, that'll definitely put a damper on one's day.) Then said father, a former senator, is found dead in his study. Detective Cassidy Jones is already in the picture by this point, as she was hired to find out who was stalking Beau's dad. Now that he's dead, Cassidy and Beau will need to work very closely together in order to figure out who dunnit. The good thing is that they don't really suspect each other. Also, Beau has the kind of body no woman would mind working closely with. Here's hoping they solve the mystery soon, and that things only go up from there! This is the second book in Martin's super suspenseful Texas Trilogy series. (Available in paperback and NOOK on January 30.)
Getaway, by Nora Roberts
This reprint offers two stories in one! In "Partners," Matthew Bates and Laurel Armand are professional enemies, which is too bad, because they both wouldn't mind getting decidedly unprofessional with each other. Then they need to investigate a murder case together, which means they are forced to work in close proximity. (Laurel, you lucky, lucky gal!) Can they manage to solve the case, ideally with Matthew shirtless at least half the time? In "Art of Deception," artist Adam Haines goes to Kirby Fairchild's ancestral home. He needs a quiet place to paint. (Adam, you can use all of our places! We promise to be super quiet while we watch you paint naked. The pleasure is all ours!) Being close to him is really nice, but then he starts to act a bit strange. The attraction is still there, so phew, but Kirby is very curious to see what exactly he is up to. (Available in paperback on January 30.)
Looking for a Hero, by Debbie Macomber
This reprint also offers two stories in one! In "Marriage Wanted," divorce attorney Nash Davenport plans to stay as far away from the altar as he possibly can. (Easy to do in his line of work.) Then he meets wedding planner Savannah Charles, who has absolutely nothing against the institution of marriage. (Nash, buddy, we promise you that Savannah is an awesome and realistic woman with healthy expectations.) Can Nash drop his snarky attitude? In "My Hero," romance writer Bailey York finds some much-needed inspiration in Parker Davidson. He has everything a heroine would want in a hero—dreamy face, charming personality, a trim, fit waist that begs to be encircled by loving arms. Will she manage to realize that Parker is the one for her, and that he's jonesing to prove he's real-life husband material? (Bailey, far be it from US to say "Get your nose out of that romance novel," but would you please open your peepers just a little bit wider?!) (Available in paperback on January 30.)
Never Dare a Wicked Earl, by Renee Ann Miller
London's most notorious Lothario Hayden Milton, the Earl of Westfield, almost had his manly bits shot off by a displeased mistress. Fortunately, her aim was not true and she shot his thigh instead. (No offense, Hayden, but you probably deserved it.) He gets a third medical assistant in Sophia Camden. (The first two just couldn't stand him anymore because he was being a giant pain.) Sophia, though, is determined to stick around and show a guy what she's capable of, medically. She strikes a deal with Hayden—if she can't hack her new gig for 10 days, she'll give in to his seductive ways. (Oh, defeat never sounded so delicious!) Sophia will obviously prove herself, because she is awesome, but will Hayden realize that he's found a woman more precious than diamonds? (Buddy, she wants to HEAL people, not shoot them. Just stating the obvious.) This is the first book in Miller's new Infamous Lords series. (Available in paperback and NOOK on January 30.)

I'm really not into writing posts like this, but I've been told by the Powers that I should, because it s great. And it totally is. But if this post reads like me bouncing on my own pogo stick, I apologize. Be assured we will return to our regularly scheduled program of self-deprecation and dick jokes shortly.
There's these folks called Kirkus. They do book reviews. Their shtick is that they're the "toughest book critics in the world". Authors kinda dread them. The dudes have got no mercy.
They reviewed STORMDANCER last week and gave it one of these:
Which is lovely and terribly flattering and pretty much their highest accolade. They don't give these things out often, apparently. And I'm told it's a "really big deal", which is great. I totally played air guitar when I found out. It's awesome. This news came right on the heels of the revelation the STORMDANCER got a starred review in Publisher's Weekly, and was also their PW Pick of the Week. Which is also super cool. But I still feel like I'm bouncing on my own pogo stick. So I'm going to stop. Right nnnnnow.
Couple of other things:
1. We'll be launching the next phase of my website jaykristoff.com in the next couple of weeks. It'll have a downloads section with a bunch of artwork and stuff, plus a section on the world of STORMDANCER, with maps and info on all the clans and a potted history of the Shima imperium. Which hopefully people will dig.
2. Those of you who live in Melbourne, or who live elsewhere and are reaaaally keen, the details for the STORMDANCER book launch are as follows!
When: 7.00 – 8.30pm, Friday September 7.
Where: Dymocks City Store, 234 Collins St
I'll mumble my way through a half-assed speech and then will be totally happy to sign your books. We'll have books on sale there on the night, but if you want to bring copies bought elsewhere, all good too. More importantly:
When: 8.30pm – Whenever, Friday September 7.
Where: Robot Bar
I dunno about anyone else, but I'll be getting drunk there. Probably very drunk, as possibly Up To No Good. If you wish to get drunk and Up To No Good with me, that's awesome.
3. I'm going to be giving away a few signed books in the next couple of weeks, courtesy of some of the lovely folks who were nice enough to blurb STORMDANCER. Amongst the prize pool will be signed copies of Pat Rothfuss' THE NAME OF THE WIND and THE WISE MAN'S FEAR containing spoilers for book 3 scrawled in Pat's own nigh-illegible script inside.
So stay tuned.
4. Entries for the Raiders of the last ARC competition are officially closed. Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU to the totally awesome people who put so much time and energy and creativity into this thing. I love you. The bride and I will undergo the unenviable task of picking a winner out of ALL THE AWESOME this weekend.
5. Eight weeks until STORMDANCER hits shelves. Yikes.
That's it. Have fun, stay safe.

Gang Members Share Deepest Thoughts
from TheBostonChannel.com
December 29, 2009
BOSTON — On the street, rival gang members would not even be speaking. Now behind bars, they're sharing their deepest thoughts.
NewsCenter 5's Bianca de la Garza reported that a prison program is getting inmates to open up.
"No one tricks you into it. You have your own free will to make the choice," inmate Brian Bowan said.
"Once you're in, that's your state of mind — that's what I am until I die," another inmate said.
Gang affiliation is a life sentence, and for some, now coupled with a jail sentence.
Hoping to reform inmates, Sheriff Frank Cousins offers a weekly class for gang members to open up.
"On the street, we wouldn't talk," another inmate said.
"We measure success after six months of being released. It's a real area of recidivism — them coming back into prison," Cousins said.
None of the inmates would divulge what they did to land them behind bars, but all admit it's not their first prison stint.
"I just had to grow up really fast. It's been a hard life. It's been a really hard life," another inmate said.
"It's like a second family. You get more opportunity to do things. But there's good and bad to everything," another inmate said.
Talking helps, but shedding the gang stigma may be near impossible.
"I have no choice. I've been in it so long," another inmate said. "I've seen a lot of things, done a lot of things. I don't suggest anyone go though the things I went though."

Great storyline.
Great chemistry.
Great fights.
Great acting.
Great sidekicks.
Great ending for a great show.
This drama is a refined combination of horror, mysticism, action and romantic comedy. Without a doubt, you would never get jaded each chapter as they have managed to develop each character, presenting a well written and planned storytelling. The point is, not all horror-comedy drama will give fulfillment as same as LFG. They have never given predictable moment, which made you eager to wait for them every week.
Honestly, I still don't want to end it, I must have really liked them, but the finale was remarkable for me to miss it. Episode 15 was awesome, they revealed everything behind the mystery. Episode 16 was actually the aftermath and closure, a proper ending for every character. For the romance, it was sweet, fun, light and concise.
So, this is it. I will never see them again next week, but surely, Let's fight ghost is one of my favorites.
Verdict: 10/10
Opps, credit to the two guys, they were all fun throughout the episodes.

A piece of history: Structure from WWII internment camp to be reassembled in Bismarck
BISMARCK — Mike Beck, 78, was just a child when the trains arrived carrying hundreds of German and Japanese "enemy aliens" who were to be interned at Fort Lincoln, or what is now United Tribes Technical College in Bismarck.
Congress proclaimed in December 1941 that the United States was at war with Japan, Germany and Italy, which resulted in the arrest and detention of "aliens" residing in the country.
For Beck, though, some of these men would later become his friends and members of the Bismarck community. More than 4,000 Germans and Japanese interned at Fort Lincoln.
"It was a part of a history in the United States that no one wants to talk about," Beck said of the camp, which operated from the spring of 1941 to March 1946.
For the past year, Beck has been reassembling a piece of history from the internment camp at Fort Lincoln. Beck is a longtime volunteer of Bismarck's Buckstop Junction, which, in 2011, acquired a temporary barracks building that was used in the camp.
Prior to 2011, the structure, called "T-23," served for more that 40 years as the maintenance building at Bismarck State College. The deteriorating building was set for demolition to make way for a new campus facility when the Missouri Valley Historical Society, which operates Buckstop Junction, stepped in.
Board by board, volunteers disassembled the temporary barracks building and the Historical Society and UTTC each got half. Then the flood of 2011 hit and Beck, the lone volunteer reassembling the structure, had to take a break to work on his flooded house, located by the Missouri River. He also had a stroke, so, up until last spring the boards from the barracks building remained at Buckstop Junction until Beck could get back to work.
Beck has been volunteering for about 22 years at Buckstop Junction, a little "town" in southeast Bismarck that is filled with other restored historical buildings — about half of which Beck rebuilt himself.
History of Fort Lincoln
The internment camp at Fort Lincoln was the talk of Bismarck in 1941. On April 11, 1941, the Tribune announced that Italian sailors taken from 28 ships in American ports would soon be interned at the camp. More than a month later, the paper announced 200 German seamen also were expected to be placed there.
Ft. Lincoln internment camp was transformed from a military post to a camp with the addition of a 10-foot fence. In addition to the German seamen, in early 1942, the Tribune reported that 415 Japanese, most of whom came from the California area, arrived at the Ft. Lincoln camp. All the internees were men.
The internees
Beck got his start in restoring old buildings when he and his two brothers started the Great Plains Museum in Mandan, which operated from the late 1960s until 1983. They picked up nearly a dozen log houses between Bismarck and Mandan that were set to be torn down.
Beck said he recalls, as a kid, going to the internment camp in Bismarck. It wasn't until he returned to Bismarck after two years in the U.S. Air Force when got to know some of the German internees who chose to remain in Bismarck.
There was Meinrad "Pete" Huchler, who owned a farm near him, Paul Mueller, a barber at the Prince Hotel, which is now Sunrise Apartments, and Kurt Peters, a man popular in Bismarck.
"Everybody in town knew (Peters)," Beck said. "He was an amazing guy."
According to Tribune archives, Peters was a radio operator on ships. He worked on four German liners before he started working with Standard Oil Co. and was sent aboard an American oil tanker in the late 1930s. He came to the U.S. from Germany in 1939, just a week before the war broke out.
Peters, who was arrested in New York City, interned in the Fort Lincoln internment camp until 1943. He was eventually released and he, like many former internees, joined the military. At the end of WWII, he became the Tribune's circulation manager.
Less than a dozen internees chose to remain in Bismarck.
Huchler was one who stayed and worked for Corwin Churchill Motors, doing wheel alignment.
Some internees who chose to stay in Bismarck may have opted not to speak about their time in the camp. Others did.
Ingrid Bailey, Huchler's daughter, said her father never spoke of any cruelty at the camp. Her father told her, "There was no cruelty if you did your job." Huchler worked at the the first aid station in the camp, because he had been a Boy Scout and had extensive first aid knowledge.
Bailey said her father had also been working for Standard Oil Co. When his ship docked in New York City, he left because he was worried about returning to Germany, as he had been arrested for a minor infraction and was told not to return.
"These people didn't do anything; they weren't spies. They were just in the wrong place at the wrong time," said Bailey, 73, who lives in Wisconsin. "When (my father) got off the train and they had guns pointed at them ... he said they kind of got a kick out of it, because they were just ordinary people who just weren't citizens."
Life at camp
Tribune archives reveal that internees in the camp at Fort Lincoln were kept well-fed, took educational classes and participated in activities. There was a 5,000-book library and recreational facilities that included tennis, badminton, soccer and baseball. A 50-foot ski slope was also built within the camp.
The camp had an 80-acre garden that grew potatoes, corn and other vegetables. Chickens and cows also were raised. Internees were given $3 in camp scrip each month, and those who worked received 10 cents an hour.
There was a 75-bed hospital at the camp. Eleven men died from natural causes, and there were two suicides. Seven parties attempted escape, but were returned unharmed.
There was also a beer "casino," where, at one end, an artist had painted a mural depicting an Austrian dance. Others also painted scenes from their fatherland, a sign that some may have been homesick.
Peak population at the camp was about 1,600. Of the total 4,030 detained there, more than half, 2,188, were paroled or released.
Remembering the camp
All of the buildings at United Tribes Technical College were part of the internment camp. Some buildings still remain.
In 2003, UTTC opened an exhibit called "Snow Country Prison" to remember the internment camp at Fort Lincoln. Neumann said a long-term project of the college is to renovate the hospital building to remember the history of the campus and to recognize the names of the internees.
Marlette Pittman, president of the Missouri Valley Historical Society, said her organization also got a $2,000 grant from Preservation North Dakota to help with renovating the "T-23" building, which Beck said he hopes to have reassembled before the fall.
"I think (the building) gives us a way to show part of the history that has not been shown and not known by a lot of people," Pittman said. "It's important because it happened here. Some of the people from that camp stayed here. It had a real impact on our area ... because it brought people here who wouldn't probably have come."

|This is by far the grossest, most disgusting book so far in the Captain Underpants series and it is amazing.
A hilarious, self-aware adventure that is sure to gross anyone out and slyly teach them about proper grammar.
Pilkey has a gift for creating ridiculous stories that are strangely perfect. Loved it! Can't wait to read Part 2.

Tomorrow is St. Valentine's Day,
All in the early morning time,
And I, a maid at the window
Will be your Valentine.
He was ready, put on his clothes,
Opened up the chamber door,
Let in the maid, who as a maid
Nevermore departed.

Lauren and Ryan
How We Met
We met in college at the University of Delaware. I was out with some friends and this boy quickly said hi to my friend, gave her a hug, and walked away. Immediately, I turned to my friend and said "WHO IS THAT?" She got so excited and went on and on about how we would be perfect for each other and how she couldn't believe she never introduced me to him.
The next day I got a text from my friend "I showed Ryan your picture and he wants your phone number…can I give it to him?" A little bold… but I said yes. A little while later I got a text, he wanted to come meet me! He walked all the way across campus by himself. He called me and I heard his voice for the first time "Hey, I'm outside." We met, talked all night, and the rest was history.
how they asked
We planned a trip to Chicago to to visit Ryan's little brother during his summer internship. Chicago was a city that we both had been dying to visit. Day 1 we arrive to the house we were staying in with his family. We got ready and set out for the day. We hit all of the tourist sites. The Bean, Navy Pier, and the Signature Room in the Hancock Building. After a long day, we headed back to our home for the week. We all got out of the car and started walking into the house. I noticed that everyone was standing around the door and looking at me. I stepped inside and there were lit candles and flowers everywhere. Ryan took my hand and asked me to come out back. We walked outside onto the deck and there was an acoustic duet couple singing our favorite love songs, "Then" by Brad Paisley, "New Favorite Memory" by Brad Paisley, and "My Favorite" by Jason Michael Carroll.
We started slow dancing. I always ask Ryan why he loves me. He is a man of few words and typically responses "because…", but not this time. He started telling me all of the reasons why he loves me and why he wants to spend the rest of his life with me. He got down on one knee and asked me to marry him!
Next thing I knew there was a photographer taking our picture and my parents from Houston emerged! They were part of his secret plan and flew into Chicago to be part of the surprise. We were surrounded by our immediate family to enjoy and celebrate the moment.
It was a night I will never forget!

Disco stock and sell system
Budget $48000-80000 ARS
Web system, accessible from each bar with a computer with internet connection. The system must allow, issue tickets, control stock, calculate profit per night and generate reports.
• Leaks in stock control (Gifts, consumption of the bar, what arrives at the bowling alley and what there is physically)
• There is no stock load to make the profit closing.
• The ticket issued by the console has many copies (Tickets are truchanded) ---> See method so that they do not adulterate
• Unfriendly inventory.
• Problem with what the publics get out of the bowling alley (number of bottles per public)
Possible solutions
i. To take a more rigorous control of entering the bowling alley and leaving, the system will have stock control, which must be entered into the system each time merchandise enters the bowling alley.
ii. To avoid stock leakage, the system will have all the options that can be given in the bar. Having thus, the possibility of realizing discounts, gifts of drinks / bottles, use of consumptions among other things.
iii. To prevent tickets from being adulterated, the system will print a color ticket that will change depending on the day.
iv. The system will have an inventory that will have all the drinks of the menu, the available bottles and their respective prices.
v. In order to keep track of the alcohol that is released by the public, the system will have a "Public" section in which an account will be kept of what each publication produces per night. (A maximum of bottles / drinks will already be predefined)
We already have a base system to boot.
To make the necessary modifications, we will have the work of a senior php programmer, who will be responsible for adding the missing sections.
We need to add new sections to a base system that we have created in php, mysql. The business is about a Disco & Bar, which needs to have a system that allows him to generate tickets (in the door of the place for the people who want to get in), need to have a friendly sell section, stock control and inventory. Should be accessible from each bar inside the Disco (8 bars) with a computer with internet connection (Or it also could be installed locally with a server inside the bar). The system must allow, issue tickets, control stock, calculate profit per night and generate reports.

Leonardo was a pet turtle along with three others who had been bought by a boy, but the boy tripped and the four turtles fell into a sewer drain. At the time, Hamato Yoshi had been hiding in the sewer from his enemy, Oroku Saki, and had become a friend of the rats living down there. Hamato was overjoyed to find four new friends, and welcomed the turtles into his home. At some point after, Hamato noticed the turtles covered in a glowing substance, and he touched the substance himself. The turtles had most recently touched Yoshi, causing them to quickly evolve into humanlike turtles. Hamato, having just been exposed to the rats, became a human rat. Hamato saw the turtles' potential to challenge the one responsible for the mutations to change him back to a human, and trained them in the art of ninjutsu, and naming them after some of his favorite Renaissance artists – Michelangelo, Leonardo, Raphael, and Donatello.
Some years after, April O'Neil was giving a news report on a recent break-in at a science lab, and a scientist used witnesses of the thieves and bits of rope to conclude the thieves were most likely ninja. April and her crew went to the next potential science lab robbery, only to moments later be chased by a group of street gang members. April managed to slip into a sewer drain, but the gang members followed. Suddenly, a second group of ninjas appeared and took out the gang. April fainted when she saw Leonardo and the other ninja were turtles. Leonardo and the others took her to their Master Splinter, (Hamato Yoshi's nickname given by the Turtles) who explained the Turtles' origin to her. April, however, believed that the Turtles were the thieving ninja, but the Turtles made a deal: they would help her find the one behind the thefts and get her a story, while she would try her best to find the Mutagen creator. She took the Turtles to the surface and bought the Turtles coats and fedoras to keep the Turtles' bodies unrevealed, and went to the scene of the crime, finding only a matchbox with the words "Ninja Pizza" on it. They found and went into a restaurant by the name of Ninja Pizza and ate there.
April left and scouted the neighborhood to find a security building, and heard orders being given out to rob a science lab. April was going to phone Channel 6 (the news station she worked for) and tell them she had found the ninja, only to be captured. Shortly after this, Leonardo and the others expressed their concerns for April's long disappearance and found her belongings, finally finding her tied to a chair on top of a building. A group of ninja assaulted the Turtles, who found out their attackers are just robots. Oroku Saki, watching the fight from a closed camera system, demanded his remaining Foot Soldiers to set off the sprinkler system in the building. Leonardo, April, and the others managed to escape before the building exploded from the pressure. Turtle Tracks
In the 1987 TV series' theme song lyrics, Leonardo is said outright to be the leader of the TMNT, and there is little disputing this; his orders are usually followed, and he is a very serious do-gooder who hardly ever makes wisecracks. In one episode, he suffered a crisis of confidence and left the group to do some soul searching; his brothers all tried their hands at being the leader in his stead, only to find that none of them could match his leadership skills. He eventually realized he had been selfish, and came back to them in time to help save the Earth.
He was attracted to a young kunoichi named Lotus Blossom, a swordswoman prodigy from Japan who was hired by Krang to replace Shredder, whom she easily defeated (along with Rocksteady and Bebop). She and Leonardo dueled to a standstill before she resorted to a trick sword to knock him out. When they met the second time, she tried to convince him to join her as "ninja for hire", but he refused. She turned on Krang and escaped to continue her mercenary lifestyle, telling Leonardo that there was little gold in goodness, though she hoped that they would one day be on the same side. She reappeared in Farewell, Lotus Blossom, where Leonardo seems to have formed a supportive, more trusting platonic rapport with her.
This is the only version of the TMNT mythos where Leonardo does not have his sibling rivalry with Raphael.There was one exception to this, namely in the episode Turtle Trek when Raphael challenged his leadership and nearly provoked him into a fight.
When the cartoon series starts out, he is shown with having a very level head, akin to his leadership qualities in the comic. However, as the series carried on, he became more reactionary and at times would screech in a higher-pitched voice, which was very different from the original, deeper pitch in the first season. This presumably may have been the result of the writers downplaying Leonardo as a hero in favor of Michelangelo and Raphael, who were more popular with audiences.
Leonardo also seems to enjoy reading. For example, many times when the Turtles are at home, Leo is reading a book. In the episode Four Musketurtles, he is the only Turtle that read The Three Musketeers. Another good example is in Leonardo is Missing; while the other Turtles go to an arcade, Leonardo stays at the lair and reads.
In the season 3 episode Take Me to Your Leader, Leonardo gives up his leadership and walks away after a dream convinces him that he is no longer a good leader. The others have to find him, and stop Shredder, Krang, Bebop and Rocksteady from draining energy from the Sun with a Solar Siphon and store it in solar batteries. However, Leonardo returns when he spots a bridge collapsing due to snow. After a man says that everybody talks about the weather but nobody does anything, Leonardo realizes his responsibility and begins to search for his brothers. He later finds them, and together they save the Earth.
In the Season 6 episode Snakes Alive, it is revealed that Leonardo has paralyzing ophidiophobia, fear of snakes, but confronted it. He later stated that he no longer is terrified of snakes, but still dislikes them.
In Season 10, he undergoes a Hyper Mutation while he and his brothers try to stabilize their unstable mutation. Leonardo arguably had the roughest time of it; even after a cure was found, he repeatedly hyper-mutated and went on violent rampages, and was only cured after being turned into a living bomb by Lord Dregg.
This is seemingly the only incarnation of the TMNT in which Leonardo's swords are curved, possibly due to problems with animation, thus the term katana could be used.
In the original English language version of the 1987 cartoon show, Leonardo's voice actor was Cam Clarke (who also voiced Rocksteady). Leonardo is generally considered to be Clarke's "breakout role" and is still one of his best known parts. In the Hebrew language version, Leonardo was dubbed by Ido Mosseri.
Other Appearances
He, along with the rest of his crew, make an appearance in Turtles Forever. However they were voiced by different actors.
He and the other members also make a few appearances in the 2012 series, first making brief cameos in Wormquake! and The Wrath of Tiger Claw. Unlike in Turtles Forever, he and the other characters are voiced by their original voice actors. All four Turtles appear in Trans-Dimensional Turtles.
- He is allergic to ragweed, as mentioned in Unidentified Flying Leonardo.
- He enjoys video games, and seems to be quite skilled at them.
- He suffered from a crippling fear of snakes, though he later overcame this phobia.

The soon-to-open Studio City in Macau has finally received its gaming table allocation from the Macau government, only the number is less than what Melco Crown Entertainment is hoping for.
Studio City International Holdings Ltd. announced on Tuesday that the Cotai casino will operate 250 new-to-market gaming tables, about 200 of which can be operated during the casino's launch on Oct. 27.
"The Macau government has authorized Studio City's gaming operator… to operate 250 new gaming tables and 1,233 new gaming machines at the Studio City gaming areas, of which 200 gaming tables and 1,233 gaming machines may be in operation upon the opening of Studio City with the remaining 50 tables authorized to be in operation beginning in January 2016," Studio City International Holdings said in a statement.
The gaming operator is a member of Melco Crown Entertainment, which, in turn, is partly owned by James Packer's Crown Resorts.
Back in August, Melco Crown CEO Lawrence Ho said he hoped the $3.2-billion Studio City could open with 400 tables. Still, Melco's table allotment is superior to the 150 tables rival Galaxy Entertainment Group was originally allocated for the Galaxy Macau and Broadway Macau casinos, which opened early this year. However, Galaxy has now been given 100 additional tables, half of which can launch immediately, with the other half as of Jan. 1, 2016.
"Following the table allocation confirmation, Studio City intends to proactively engage the lenders under its senior credit facilities to discuss proposed amendments to the terms of its loan documentation to reflect the number of tables allocated," the company said.
Melco's table allocation didn't meet an important requirement of the $1.4 billion debt deal it had with hedge funds, which included a covenant that the new Macau casino would feature at least 400 tables, according to the Australian Financial Review.
Last week, an irate Steve Wynn lambasted the Macau government and called the city state's table cap as the "single most counterintuitive and irrational decision ever made," which he said will only "undermine and scuttle" the gambling industry.
Macau officials, however, refused to be swayed on their table cap stance, which limits the total number of tables to a 3 percent compound annual expansion until 2022. The government said it has several factors to take into consideration before deciding on the table allocation, such as the non-gaming components of the new projects in Cotai as well as the partnerships between the casino operators and the local small- and medium-sized businesses.
Despite missing its table target, Melco thanked Macau authorities for recognizing the efforts and investments it made into the entertainment offerings at the casino complex.
"We thank the Macau government for its consideration of our application and approval of gaming tables and machines for Studio City. We are confident that Studio City's offering of cinematically-themed entertainment, retail, food and beverage and accommodation options will contribute meaningfully to the economic and employment diversification of Macau," Ho said in a statement.

WASHINGTON -- It wasn't a new White House initiative or pending bill that preoccupied Rep. Peter T. King one day this spring.
It was Oliver Stone.
The director's political, conspiracy-tinged movies such as "JFK" and "Salvador" had made him a scourge of conservatives. King was concerned that Stone's upcoming film, "World Trade Center," would take a provocative look at the 9/11 terrorist attacks.
King, whose Long Island district was home to scores of 9/11 victims, peppered Paramount Pictures representatives with questions as they showed him the trailer in his Capitol Hill office in May.
"I asked them several times: Are there any Oliver Stone conspiracies in there?" King recalled. "Is it going to be, 'Bush really did it? Clinton really did? Lyndon Johnson really did it?' I was concerned this would be like a 9/11 version of 'JFK.' "

DARK DOG Enduro Team at the DIRECTV MountainBike Enduro Open
Last weekend the DARK DOG Enduro Team participated in the DIRECTV Enduro Open by SouthTime in Curacaví in the Santiago Metropolitan Region in Chile.
Over 300 racers participated in this race in different categories. There was a high level of competition. The heat and the dust were tough companions on the track.
There were three specials for this race. The first stage started of with a steep ascent. The descent combined speed and technique. The following part passed right through the village Curacaví, which required all participants to pay attention to traffic, as it was not redirected for the race. The third part passed through the two rock gardens, at the beginning and in the middle to reach the finish line and the base camp.
Our guys finished well, Javier Tagle and Juanjo Valverde made it to the podium in their respective categories.
The person who left a great impression on everyone during the event was 14-year old Felipe Agurto who came in first in the Junior category. He's not even old enough yet for category he was racing in, so it's safe to say that he is a promising talent to watch out for in the future.
As always the lens of Dogman Photos captured some of the best moments and the photo credit for the pictures you see in this post go all to him.

JULIAN BOND Chairman, National Association for the Advancement of Colored People
Freedomways rightly believed that knowledge is power.
Its pages presented truths that seldom found an outlet elsewhere and arguments that suffered suppression more often than refutation.
It was born from the movement of the early 1960s, which in turn found its roots as much in the 1860s as the 1950s, 1940s, and 1930s. Importantly, Freedomways recognized that successful movements are built on the contributions and mistakes of the past. Its pages drew from yesterday while explaining today and predicting tomorrow.
In its opening announcement, Freedomways invited "historians, sociologists, economists, artists, workers, students -- all who have something to contribute in this search for TRUTH -- to use this open channel of communication that we might unite and mobilize our efforts for worthy and lasting results."
A veritable Who's Who of arts and letters -- as well as workers and students -- responded. The table of contents for each issue -- as well as for this volume -- lists a proud roster of aggressive participants, not just observers or recorders, of the movement for human rights.
What they wrote furthered the magazine's purposes: to "unite and mobilize our efforts." Contributors to Freedomways were distinguished by the high level of discourse they brought to their written work and also by their militant activism -- these were writers with

Mark Twain, born Samuel Longhorne Clemens in 1835, was unquestionably one of the finest satirists and authors that America has produced. In 1876 his wit and skill shone in "The Adventures of Tom Sawyer," a story that became so popular that he quickly began work on a sequel, though it was not completed and published until 1884.
Like "Tom Sawyer," "The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn" tells a young boy's story in inimitable Mark Twain style. However, it has a more serious edge, with its critical look at the South and especially the institution of slavery.
"Huck Finn" is told in first person by the title character, with liberal use of boyish slang and dialect. Huck sets the stage by reminding his audience how, at the end of "Tom Sawyer" he came into possession of a large sum of money. As a result, Huck has been adopted and "sivilized" by the well-meaning Widow Douglas, until his alcoholic father kidnaps him in an attempt to steal the money. Huck eventually grows tired of his father's mistreatment, fakes his own murder, and escapes. The story then follows Huck's journey down the Mississippi River on a raft with Jim, the runaway slave of the Widow Douglas's sister, Miss Watson.
Huck and Jim bond over many adventures in the course of their travels, culminating in their rescue of a pair of men who turn out to be charlatans billing themselves as "the duke" and "the dauphin." When the shady business of these two leaves them in dire financial straits, they scheme to collect on the reward being offered for Jim's capture and sell him to a local farmer.
Huck discovers that Jim is being held at the home of the Phelps family, who by coincidence are Tom Sawyer's aunt and uncle. When Tom comes for a visit he agrees to help Huck free Jim, devising an extraordinarily and unnecessarily complicated plan for doing so.
"Huck Finn" is more than a simple adventure story: It is a thinly disguised critique of the hypocrisy of civilization in the South. Throughout the novel, Mark Twain turns upside down the expectations of society. Huck is a poor white boy who glibly tells lies to cover his tracks, and yet he is good-hearted and values honesty in his core. Women like Miss Watson and the Widow Douglas are well-meaning toward some human beings but have much less consideration for their slaves. The duke and the dauphin appear to be respectable white men, but are in reality unprincipled thieves and double-crossers. In Tom we see this concept in caricature. Tom is not bad at heart, but he has an overgrown imagination and enjoys concocting elaborate and ridiculous plans in spite of the pain or inconvenience they cause because that's "how it's supposed to be" based on the books he reads.
The relationship between Huck and Jim is another example of these ideas at work. "Sivilized" society has taught Huck that slaves are property, and as a result Huck is guilt-ridden over helping Jim escape. Huck agonizes over his dilemma until his genuine love for Jim overrules the conscience that condemns him for violating the rules of chattel slavery. For his part, Jim is willing to sacrifice his freedom to help Tom at the end of the book. The hypocrisy Huck sees in the higher classes of society is what drives Huck away from more "sivilizing"; as he says, "I been there before." Though he thinks he'll be condemned to hell for helping Jim, the reader can see that he is acting more in accordance with true Christianity than many who call themselves Christians.
When evaluating this classic for potentially controversial material, one must take into account the place and time in which it was written and set. What is now considered a highly offensive name for blacks was then a common part of speech and as such is used liberally. For this reason, "Huck Finn" "has been one of the most frequently challenged and banned books in America." However, aside from this, the (unsympathetic) depiction of the alcoholism of Huck's father and the matter-of-fact way Huck refers to his own heavy smoking are the only issues that may be of concern to parents.
"The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn" surely deserves the popularity it has enjoyed over the last century. It is in a sense a cultural snapshot, a critical look at a particular time and place in our nation's history, delivered with perceptiveness and wit that could only come from Mark Twain.

Saturday, since the boys were gone, Jill and I decided to go to the zoo to meet the Cissells. After an unusually long trip to the zoo (I'll spare you the trip details), we arrived with only 27 minutes to get some candy and see a few characters (we had to be back on the road by 6:00 in order to make our next stop on time). Here, Princess Libby (Sleeping Beauty) awaits to enter the zoo. Libby and Livy (Kayla's cousin).
Livy with the two prettiest Snow Whites in the zoo!We stopped for a photo op next to a Dwarf (you may notice the turtle from one of the partners at Gary's firm in the background). By this time, Jill and I were absolutely cracking up... I was pushing the stroller (you'll note we were in too big of a hurry to get Libby out of it for any photos!) and Jill was holding the girl's hands. We were (at some point) literally running--zooming in and out of wagons and strollers toting pumpkins, monsters and princesses. We skipped many of the candy booths in order to make it thorough in our allotted 27 minutes. The girls were such troopers during out "Zoo Trip on Speed". Kayla and Livy ran as fast as their little legs would carry them! Here they are with Belle from Beauty and the Beast (when you only have time for 1 picture, we don't guarantee that everyone--or anyone--would be looking at the camera).
Common----you didn't really think you'd make it through an entire blog entry without seeing a picture that I edited with my new program, did you?Kayla & Libby with Cinderella. Well, we didn't make it in the allotted 27 minutes (we would have if we didn't get called out by the zoo keeper for going the wrong way), but we did have a really good time and made it to Mama Sandy's before the actives began. As for the Cissells, we zoomed past them (and the sweetest little flower that I have ever seen) on our way out of the zoo.

LIKES and DISLIKES about publishing process
As the finish line is in sight for publication of THE MOMENT OF TRUTH by Pegasus Books on June 6th, I thought I'd share some of my 'loves' and 'dislikes' on the journey in hopes it will help others about to be published or wanting to get published and/or entertain those interested in the process. LOVES: Amazing high after your agent informs you a publisher wants to publish your book. Working with your agent on the contract. Meeting the people at your publisher over lunch to talk about the novel and exchanging ideas. Makes all the hours spent alone in your writing space worthwhile Working with my editor during the development of the novel. Seeing your novel's jacket for the first time—that sure is a blood-rush moment—and the publisher actually listening and acting upon some of your suggestions to improve various drafts. (I must point out this was unusual and not all authors get such an experience as some publishers don't do this.) Seeing the final typeset version of your manuscript on the computer and the colophon you suggested being used to indicate space breaks. Working with the publisher's marketing people to discuss promotion ideas, etc. Great brain stimulation DISLIKES (and fears): Approaching peers for endorsements (blurbs) because I feel like a beggar and many decline or don't bother to respond. (That's not a complaint, just an observation.) There are many reasons why an author won't blurb: too busy and have their own pressing deadlines; story doesn't interest them; they get asked by hundreds of people; don't want to blurb it for personal or professional reasons. Don't take it personally or you'll become bitter. Accept and move on. It's part of the process. And celebrate when you get a great endorsement from a writer who gave his or her time to read your work and tendered the blurb. Make a commitment to do the same and be open to writers if you become well enough known and your opinion is sought. As authors nowadays have to get involved contacting influential book clubs and other important review sites to ask them to read your book or select it as one of their picks, etc—again, one feels like a beggar. View it as just another cog in the publishing machine. Often the response will be 'no' or there will be no response, which can disappoint and even hurt. That's a normal emotion but don't take it personally. Remember there are hundreds of books released every year and, while your book is your new baby, to them it is just another novel or memoir, etc. The terror when a pre-pub review has been published and you begin reading it. (You will also experience it on the book's publication as, hopefully, you will get ink in newspapers and magazines, etc.) Whether it is a good or bad review, treat them the same and don't take it personally. Try not to over celebrate if good and not get despondent or want to cut your wrists if it's bad. Remember that reviews are subjective. Move on. I said, Move on. And if you're really sensitive, don't read reviews—good or bad. Same goes for Amazon reader reviews. And remember there will be trolls on the internet. Do not comment on Amazon or Goodreads. As oxygen gives life to the body, responses give life to trolls.

Basic Strategies
In League of Legends, the first step of playing would be selecting a champion. Each champion has its own roles (i.e.: Carry, Range, Fighter, etc.)
Current Basic Lane Meta
- Top Lane
- Team Tank
- Secondary Carry
- Bruiser
- Fighter
Top is one of the lanes who generally goes solo unless there is no jungler currently on the team. This generally is ill advised as jungle provides a means for extra experience over the other team and opens up a lane for a champion to gain experience and level up faster. As a secondary carry or tank for the team when solo top lane, it opens up an avenue of income and experience.
It should also be noted that jungle levels up with the highest level champion in the game so it is better to jungle as fast as you can. Priority in jungling is split between ganking and leveling up, each with its pros and cons.
- Middle Lane
- Mage
- Ranged Carries
Middle lane itself always solo plays the important role of being the team's burst damage, and usually ability power based. Champions with world-wide spells such as Soraka or Twisted Fate can benefit from being in the middle as their ultimates can be used to give top or bottom lane an advantage over their opponents. The reason why there is generally a champion in middle is because that champion is often the team's life line if there are two lanes in need of a gank and the jungler can only be in one place.
General rule of thumb when disappearing from your lane to go gank another lane is to be gone for no more then 3-5 seconds. Taking any longer will allow enemy minion waves to push back towards your tower while the enemy team will notice your long absence.
- Bottom Lane
- Ranged Carry
- Support
Bottom lane is the only lane that should always be populated by two champions. The reason for this is because bottom lane along with middle are there to protect the epic monsterlocated in the middle of the two lanes. When Dragon is killed, each member from the killer team will be awarded 190 gold (totaling 950 gold, the equivalent to three champion kills) As a Support champion on bottom generally, it is normally their job to keep the river warded to protect from ganks as well as give a heads-up when the enemy team is attempting to kill Dragon.
The other champion laning with the Support would normally be a Ranged Carry, who also plays a vital role in a team fight. The Ranged Carry is usually physical damage based and will take quite a bit of minion kills to build up as a viable damage output source for the team. Ranged Carries have the job of sitting back and poking enemy champions within reach while providing the team a means to damage turrets when enemy champions turtle to prevent further advancement towards their base.

Lynch to be Named Brownsburg Basketball CoachApril 12, 2013 No comments
Brownsburg High School is pleased to announce that Steve Lynch will be named the varsity boys' basketball coach. Lynch, who compiled a winning record at Mt. Vernon, including the school's first regional championship since 1991, "brings every quality that Brownsburg High School was seeking in a head coach," said BHS Principal Bret Daghe. "He has tremendous values, high basketball IQ, is an excellent educator in the classroom and on the court."
In addition to his successful seven year tenure at Mt. Vernon, Lynch brings nine years of experience as an assistant at Southwest Missouri State under Steve Alford and Barry Hinson. That experience also includes five post-season tournament appearances including a trip to the "Sweet 16" in 1999. Lynch also played at Manchester College before coaching there for four years under Alford.
Brownsburg Athletic Director Kelli Waggoner said Lynch's coaching experience speaks for itself. She looks forward to him and his family coming to Brownsburg and anticipates "his selfless commitment to our players and the future of our program."
Believing that Lynch is "one of the best coaches in Indiana", Chris May, Executive Director of the Indiana Basketball Hall of Fame said, "He is an enthusiastic, knowledgeable coach and his teams are always fundamentally sound, well prepared and carry themselves on and off the court in a positive manner. Brownsburg fans will be proud to call Steve Lynch their head coach."
The Brownsburg School Board will make the official appointment on April 22. Lynch replaces Ronald Nored, who has accepted an assistant coaching position at South Alabama under former Butler basketball assistant Matthew Graves.

Who am I ? Who are you ? And who are they ?
Who are we all ? How did we fall into into this rigid frame called self definition (by the way an volatile and dynamic concept) ? Is there a definition for everything in a true sense ? I wonder.And are we defining ourselves from within or from outside?
The day a child is born, into a certain family, it is named according to the religion and community that the family follows.In fact each one in the family has been named that way to start off with, dictated by the same factors.If, I call my child Ram or John, its only because I am either a Hindu or a Christian, respectively.Not because the child was Ram or John the time its birth, which was destined to take place by the nature.
We name a child, just so that people can identify or refer to him or her. Hence it is inevitable. Something as fundamental as name is also based on the kind of a cultural background we are from.It was neither our choice nor something which we were sent down with.We came here with nothing,except for a physical form.Not even a name.
We are made to follow a set of customs and rituals in order to lead a life, defined to be the way, by the ones who came before us.Nevertheless every single belief of any background, does consist of a rationality with the logical support of science, wrapped in a spiritual cover, which often becomes the topic of criticism among the skeptics, due to the fragmented dissemination of knowledge between generation.Now the point is,
I am a Hindu, because I was born to a Hindu couple.I speak a Dravidian language called Tamil, because my family speaks that. Thus I am a Tamilian.My home is located in the coastal town of Madras,that makes me a Madarasi (affectionately by the rest of my country, haha!). My peninsular state defines the geographical end of India.And that's how I am an Indian.Therefore all of these labels have been fixed upon me for the purpose of identification due to place & situation of birth and not by my choice. None of us get that choice of birth followed by these.We don't know any of these till we are born and raised.
However as we are raised in a collective society that projects a certain way of living adorned by aspects of history, geography , food and language, we begin to take the impressions that our immediate physical entities, which are naturally unavoidable. As children we are nothing but clay (easy for me to relate,as a ceramicist,as of now ;)) We beautifully take in whatever seem to happen around us, be it right or wrong.
And all this is by a matter of chance.The game of probability.What if I were born in a nursing home and got picked up accidentally by another family (which by the way happens a lot in our Indian films, I trust Indian films, *winks*), which belongs to say the fellow Indian state of West Bengal.I would probably be speaking Bengali and believing all my life that I am one, when I was actually a child of a Tamil family. Through one accident my identity changes.So who cares about something that I could have been, had I not been displaced within the wards of a careless nursing home. That is what identity is all about. Maybe it is right, but it is not the ultimate of what one is or one could be.There is always more.And in learning and self engineering, more is never more.
But in my experience of being in this extremely multi cultural society,at this period, I have noticed that somewhere we all are toiling to defend a certain identity of ours, resulting in a gradual motion towards what could be 'fanaticism' which is actually a retardation as a society.We dogmatically fight for something that was a matter of chance (with due respect to all cultures and languages,including mine) forgetting the bigger picture of what we need to do as a country and definitely as an individual.This is not some rebellious piece of write up meaning to provoke patriotism,saying we are Indians first. However its just a reflection of my thoughts , which constantly questions this regional zealotry of a modern and developing nation (hopefully).
Are we going to let these labels describe who we are and live with that alone ? Are we going to just settle with something only because we were born with it and not learn from others too? When one leaves his physical form, he would want to leave as a person who has made the best out of himself from the day he began to think or speculate and not just as a man or an woman, as a Muslim or a Christian , as a north Indian or a south Indian 'ALONE'. We think we are collective.But we don't make our thoughts collective or inclusive.Now what is with that internal hypocrisy ? *winks* We are by the end of all this not the we, that we think we are !
Here is a thought,
Respect where you are from.Guard it with a healthy devotion,in true sense.But move out to learn more, add more to yourself and meet the new you,who will come your way,every time you learn something different. Remember, nothing of what you have created and established is going to stay forever here.Neither you nor what you have. Like someone had rightly said, we are all a speck of dust in this endless universe.
After all, we are all here by a matter of chance ! We weren't the only choice of Universe.

This morning, I felt like baking fairy cakes. Stranger things have happened, I guess. :)
What's slightly less unexcitingly usual is that I feel like writing down the recipe for you!
Strawberry fromage frais muffins
Ingredients (makes 12)
250 g flour
2 tsp baking powder
1 egg, beaten
150 g fromage frais
125 ml milk
90 g butter
120 g sugar
1 pinch salt
170 g strawberries
Chop the strawberries into small pieces. Mix all the other ingredients together until well combined. Then stir in the strawberries. Grease or line a muffin tin, fill with the mixture. Bake at 180°C fan for about 30 minutes.
Let cool, then eat plain. Make another batch. Let cool, ice with sugar icing and eat them all. Make another batch and add the white chocolate cream cheese topping:
White chocolate cream cheese topping
100 g white chocolate
7 g butter
2 tsp vanilla sugar (alternatively, use regular sugar + a drop of vanilla essence)
100 g cream cheese
Melt the chocolate together with the butter, then stir in the vanilla sugar (or vanilla and sugar). Beat in the cream cheese one teaspoonful at a time. Let cool to room temperature, then pipe onto your cakes.
Sprinkle your fairy cakes with pink glitter sugar, especially when making for men. They'll love it. :)

SWANSEA — Elizabeth Bond submitted a letter of resignation from the Recreation Commission to the town clerk's office Monday morning.
Ms. Bond, who was the top vote getter among the three candidates running in the annual town election this past April, noted that the conflicts among board members were taking a toll on her.
"They are stuck in the old ways," Ms. Bond said. "They fight change, there is not much progress being made."
This past week, Chairman Patrick Higgins mentioned that Ms. Bond might be leaving. She was not present at last Tuesday's meeting. During a verbal exchange between Chairman Higgins and his father Harold Higgins, the chairman noted that his father was responsible for Ms. Bond wanting to leave. That came after Mr. Higgins had said that his son was responsible for the commission minutes clerk, Patricia Gamer, resigning.
Ms. Bond had 354 votes during the April 9 election with George Botelho receiving 320 and Harold Higgins 228 as all three were elected unopposed for the three-year terms.
The commission has had problems filling seats over the years. Write-in candidates have won positions on the commission in past elections. The Board of Selectmen have discussed making the commissioners appointed positions.

After fighting off NCE Premier League promotion-favourites Pontefract Collieries 2-1 last Saturday, Garforth Town must do it all over again tomorrow when they make the short trip to the Harratt Nissan Stadium to go for an unlikely double over their local rivals, writes Connor Craig-Jackson.
Despite suffering an unexpected loss, Pontefract are still well within touching distance of the league summit, with five games in hand over leaders AFC Mansfield.
A win in this fixture however could be huge for Pontefract to ensure their loss was merely a small scratch on the aura of superiority built up by them over the season.
Hemsworth Miners Welfare will also face a re-run of last Saturday's outing against league leaders Mansfield, as they aim to put behind them the 5-1 thrashing they suffered against the Bulls and rekindle their fading promotion hopes.
They will be hoping for another small slip up from promotion rivals Pickering Town, who travel to mid-table Liversedge after being held to a 2-2 draw last Saturday.
NCE Division One leaders Knaresborough Town will hope to make it business as usual tomorrow when they travel to promotion contenders Selby Town having already ended their strong recent run last Saturday with a 2-1 victory.
Despite this Selby will take confidence from Saturday's performance where they forced the league leaders to dig deep for the three points, setting the tone for a very gripping affair between the two tomorrow.
Fellow promotion contenders Yorkshire Amateur, meanwhile, will be desperate to get back to winning ways after two disappointing recent draws. Dronfield Town will this time be the visitors to Yorkshire Amateur who will look to keep in touch of the automatic promotion race.
Glasshoughton Welfare's return fixture at AFC Emley could also hold more drama, with Glasshoughton snatching a late draw in their previous outing immediately after Josimar Bradshaw looked to have secured victory for AFC Emley.
Nostell Miners Welfare can also kick on from their impressive draw at high-flying Eccleshill United when they welcome them in the return outing at the Welfare Ground.

Carl Frampton can be ten times better in 2018, warns coach Jamie Moore
Coach Jamie Moore has hailed the performance of Carl Frampton on Saturday night and sent a warning to the rest of the featherweight division that the Belfast man has so much more to give in 2018.
Former World super-bantamweight and featherweight champion Frampton outpointed Mexican hard man Horacio Garcia at the SSE Arena over 10 entertaining rounds but Moore knows that the Jackal needs to move up a level if he is to rule the nine stone division once more.
While he admitted there were flaws in Frampton's display, he is adamant that was largely down to the 10 months the 30-year-old Belfast man spent on the sidelines since his World title defeat at the hands of Leo Santa Cruz.
"I think Carl deserves massive credit for the performance he has put in on the back of the amount of stress he has been under," said Moore.
"People don't realise what he has had to deal with behind the scenes. It's a mark of his character to come here and put on a show after all he has been through, honestly it's horrendous.
"That was a six out of 10 by his standards. He can box 10 times better than that, if he sticks to the plan and boxes and if the rest of the featherweights think that's him at his best then they're going to get a shock."
Moore has returned to Manchester having learned more about the Jackal following their first fight together and what he feels needs to be worked on ahead of a World title fight at Windsor Park next summer.
"I found out a little bit about his character in that he likes to have a scrap more than I expected. When he used the jab nice and snappy, he bossed it from the outside. He was working on things that we had worked on in the gym, when he was on the ropes he allowed himself to stay there too long," added Moore.
"Once Garcia landed a few shots he then started trading with him whereas he should have gone back to what he had been doing before. But these things take time, they won't just happen overnight.
"It's a good thing that we saw some things in this fight that we can go back to the gym and work on. We can show him a certain situation in the fight and where he went wrong and what he needs to do the next time.
"Rome wasn't built in a day and I've said so many times that Carl is the finished article in that I'm not going to show him how to throw a jab better, he's far beyond that stage - it's about getting him to use his attributes at the right time and sometimes he didn't do that. He did some lovely things early on and then allowed himself to get dragged into a fight and that's a temperament thing.
"He has to learn to control it but a big part of that was everything that happened in the summer, the fight falling through, he felt like he owed it to the fans to put on a show. He was loading up too much because of that but when he relaxed he was fine."
Belfast Telegraph
