The Best Video-Shooting Cell Phones
We've all been there: You're out and about and you witness something that begs to be captured on film, but you're ill-prepared to record it. It can be frustrating to miss a baby's first steps or a flock of birds in a jaw-dropping undulating formation.
Unless you own a pocket-size YouTube camcorder, your video camera probably isn't part of your walking-around gear, but your cell phone is! We're already used to having our phones pull double duty as still cameras, but lots of today's handsets have added video to their arsenalsand some of them are pretty good at it.
If you want to score a solid video-capable cell phone, you need to decide which features are most important to you. One thing to keep in mind: Since cell-phone video technology is fairly nascent, you can't expect dedicated camcorder quality video. You need to make some sacrifices. On the Samsung Omnia SCH-i910 (Verizon Wireless), for example, you can get high-quality video at 30 frames per secondbut in 320-by-240 resolution; jack it up to 640-by-480 and you get only 15 fps, and jaggy images. The Samsung Memoir SGH-T929, on the other hand, can record 720-by-480 or 640-by-480 at 30 fps, or 320-by-240 at 120 fps. Unfortunately, some purple fringing compromises the quality.
For the highest-quality capture, go with the Nokia N82. This Editors' Choice winner shoots 640-by-480-pixel videos that can be up to an hour long at a super-smooth 28 fps. You also get terrific quality from the Nokia N95 8GB, which shoots 640-by-480-pixel video at 30 fps. Both Nokias feature expandable memory via microSD cards and record in the highly compatible MPEG-4 format. (Neither records in high-defbut that resolution isn't bad for on-the-fly footage.)
Want special effects? With the LG Dare VX9700, you can shoot videos at 120 fps and play them back at 1/8 speed, which is perfect for scintillating slow-mo footagealthough you can't save sound in that mode. In terms of traditional video (with sound), you get 640-by-480 at 15 fpsstill not too bad.
These phones won't turn you into the next Scorsese, but they'll ensure that you'll be able to preserve memorable moments whenever they happen, and wherever you are.
Compare these video-recording handsets side-by-side, or check out our full reviews linked below.
LG Dare VX9700 (Verizon Wireless)
The best multimedia phone that Verizon Wireless has ever released, the LG Dare is also the most fun to use. It takes 640-by-480-pixel videos with sound at 15 fps and can also shoot slow-motion scenes.
Nokia N82 (unlocked)
You can finally ditch your digicam. This talented smartphone is also among the best camera phones we've ever seen, with its 5-megapixel sensor and xenon flash. And it also takes killer 640-by-480-pixel, 28-fps videos.
Nokia N95 8GB (unlocked)
An evolutionary upgrade of Nokia's popular unlocked N95 handset, the N95 8GB is a good choice for anyone who wants a top-notch multimedia smartphonethat can shoot 640-by-480-pixel video at 30 fpsbut can live without a QWERTY keyboard.
Samsung Memoir SGH-T929 (T-Mobile)
The Samsung Memoir is the nation's top camera phone, boasting 8-megapixel still images and high-res video recording at 720-by-480 (30 fps), 640-by-480 (30 fps), and 320-by-240 (at a super-smooth 120 fps). It's also a very full-featured Web and media gadget.
Samsung Omnia SCH-i910 (Verizon Wireless)
The Windows Mobile 6.1 Samsung Omnia SCH-i910 is the best Verizon phone we've seen for photos, Web browsing, and video recording (at both 320-by-480 at 30 fps and 640-by-480 at 15 fps).

New Hope started collecting Christmas Shoeboxes for Operation Christmas Child in 2010. That fist year we collected about 10 boxes. In 2011 members put together approximately 40 boxes. We hope this ministry will continue to grow.
Being honest with ourselves, this is one area where New Hope MUST prayerfully move. New Hope has never personally sent any members on an international mission trip. They have helped to fund mission work that others have been involved with, and they do of course make regular contribution to the cooperative programs, but that does not excuse us from personally answering God call to "Go"! Pastor Heath has set a goal for New Hope to take their first international mission trip in the summer of 2014.
New Hope also makes a yearly contribution to the Lottie Moon Christmas Offering.

Late last fall, my cousin Maria who lives on the east end of Long Island, called me to say she was at 8 Hands Farm in Cutchogue. 8 Hands is an Icelandic sheep farm and sells meat, milk and some fiber. Maria saw the yarn and thought of me and asked if I wanted some. It only came in one natural color (oatmeal) and Carol, the owner, said that the paler cream would be coming in the spring.
Maria came on Christmas. The yarn was "rustic," but I loved it. I only got 2 skeins of 250 yards each and I thought a garter stitch shawl would best show off the yarn's qualities.
Right now, I'm in process, actually almost done…working on the edging, but I'm not sure about it. I experimented with increases with this one, making the shawl into five segments — almost a circle — like this:
However, the shawl alternates between garter stitch (where the five sets of increases are done) and stockinette stitch with a single ridge (where increases are only done on the edges). My thinking was that the extra increases + the lack of increases would give the shawl less of a circular look and flatten it out a bit. However, what has happened is that I still have a circle, but the garter stitch sections are slightly "humped."
I truly love the concept and think that if it doesn't block out the way I want, I may just frog it and try a variation on the theme. I'll let you know.

Why Donate to The Valhalla Project Instead of Some Other Nonprofit Organization?
Good question. Why indeed?
Good question. Why indeed?
Like us, you have got to be tired of reading about self-proclaimed veterans' charities that spend disproportionate amounts of donor's hard-earned money on lavish suites, egregiously high salaries and benefits, and meetings in exotic vacation spots while contributing precious little to actual veteran needs. Some of these groups are borderline scams; others have proven to be outright con artists.
Some of these outfits raise tens of millions of dollars annually and treat themselves to lifestyles of the rich and famous. Are you disgusted and disappointed by such behavior? We are, too.
When we founded Valhalla we saw through some of these groups and since have watched many embarrass themselves or close their doors. Therefore, from the outset we were determined to separate ourselves from those guys.
Valhalla management, cadre, and board members are all not paid. That's right, no salaries, no benefits, no fancy cars, no big offices. Never have; never will. We're all volunteers who put in very long hours each month to make the Valhalla Project possible. That's our commitment to our veteran participants and to you our donors.
Initially Gordon and Chris Cucullu funded Valhalla from precious few personal resources. To this day they continue to put a significant proportion of their (limited) outside annual income into the Project, in addition to living and working on site daily. There are others who sacrifice their own limited resources to join them in making the Valhalla Project possible: contributing access road maintenance, pasture and hay cutting services to keep the farm animals fed for the benefit of Valhalla's supper tables (free-range Omega-3 rich eggs, best-quality pure manure for the orchards and vegetable gardens, grass-fed meats and more). And of course all "Valhallans" themselves who stay here for any length of time (ranging from a weekend to months) pitch in at least four hours each day not just to cut costs to make Valhalla possible, but also as a vehicle to regaining their own sense of mission, purpose, and accomplishment in the civilian world following their military service.
As everyone out there on a budget is well aware, many worthwhile projects and acquisitions get pushed to a later date primarily because of available resources. We understand the tough facts of life and know that you do, too.
In a time of scarce personal resources it isn't easy to donate to a group, regardless of how worthwhile it is. And you ought to be concerned about how your donation is spent. We would be appalled to discover that the organization receiving our donation was paying staff in the high six figures plus hidden benefits.
So, if you decide to assist Valhalla - and we hope you do - then you can at least relax about this concern. Every contribution we receive goes directly to support our veteran participant projects. Period.
If you're still concerned, and we wouldn't blame you if you were, then you have another option. Check out the Valhalla Project's Critical Needs List on Amazon and pick an item or two from there. You can be confident that the item is of immediate use and you won't have to worry that your generous donation was improperly used.
We do need your help to keep things running for post-9/11 veterans here. Let's be frank. We can deal comfortably with up to 8 veterans at a time, but would like to expand slowly to accommodate more. With you help we'll serve those 8 to the best of our ability and build on that base. But we cannot do it alone. If you want to be part of the team that is committed to the mission of helping veterans then please put Valhalla Project high on your list.
Many thanks from us and from our Valhalla veteran participants, today and tomorrow.* * *
The Valhalla Project needs your help and supportWe need YOUR help to keep Valhalla functioning efficiently - while at the same time expanding vitally important programs to assist post-9/11 combat Soldiers and war zone civilian workers to transition back into the civilian world.
The Valhalla Project is a 501(c)3 nonprofit charity recognized by the IRS.
Nobody, including cadre or board members, draws a paycheck here, nor will they ever: we simply give everything we have to make Valhalla possible. 100% of your donation via Paypal will go directly to program expenses, period.

Nearing Nepal...
Good morning First Baptist family~
Our team is nearing Nepal after nearly two full days of travel. Our prayers have been effective and God has been faithful as their travels have been very smooth and trouble free. They left the parking lot yesterday morning at 4 am and flew from Pittsburg to Philiadelphia and then boarded a large plane for a 12 hour flight to Qatar. The plane was not at all crowded and what could have been an uncomfortably crowded 12 hour existence was instead, "not nearly as bad as I thought it was going to be."
{Pictures taken as they boarded flight to Qatar}
As we went to sleep last night our team was preparing to board the last plane to their destination. This morning, they are about 90 minutes from landing in Kathmandu, the capital city of Nepal. When they land it will be 7:30 pm Tuesday evening in Nepal. After gathering their bags and supplies they will spend the night in a hotel and wake up very early the next morning and take a helicopter up into the village. The helicopter transportation will take place at about 7 pm Wheeling time, this evening.
Darrin sent a few texts last night during the layover in Qatar. "We are surrounded by desert and the roads [in Qatar] are very nice." The guys also "had such a fun time reading the notes [which were placed in the offering plates on Sunday morning] they were really good! Someone put $20 in their note and told us to buy coffee."
One of his messages included prayer needs for the next two days:
- Easy entrance into the country.
- Sleep (especially as they adjust to the 10 hour time difference)
- Safe transport via the helicopter into the village
Please join us in prayer for our team as they finish travel and begin to encourage and teach as they they are called to do. Pray that God would give them the great gift of joy in their work.
The support given these men (and their families) thus far in this journey has been deeply felt and appreciated.
"I really felt the prayers. Things have been so smooth so far."
Let's keep up the work of sending here at home so our team and begin their work.
Let's make much of HIM!
{Check back tomorrow for more updates.}

The XM-24 has always been the 'big boy' of the Hinderer line up. However, for some folks it can be a bit much to carry. The XM-24 Skinny has all the length, but not as much girth as the standard XM-24 (get yer mind outta the gutter)! Basically, the XM-24 Skinny is a XM-24 with the width of the smaller XM-18 3.5 inch making it a bit more pocket friendly. Don't think the XM-24 Skinny is some lightweight! You still have over 9 inches of American Made Hinderer goodness and with a .165" thick blade ready to handle whatever you can throw at it!
The Blade: The Hinderer Slicer blade profile is especially good at -you guessed it- slicing! The Slicer is similar to a spearpoint profile, but with a primary grind that sort of angles up towards the tip, resulting in a little bit thinner and "more slicey-like" tip. Great overall use profile in stonewashed finish.
The Frame:
Titanium frame in stonewashed finish. XM textured G10 scale.
About the XM-24: The XM-24 is the 'big brother' of the legendary XM-18 and takes it up a notch. Over 9" long when opened. The XM series of folders are the combination of over 25 years of old world knife making craftsmanship combined with modern 3D design and CNC technology. The result is a folder that performs like a fixed blade that has become one of the benchmarks in the hard use folder category.

This past weekend we got to be part of the amazing outdoor reception at Aaron and Cath's wedding. These dear friends of ours are ultra-creative, and we knew their wedding would be incredible, down to the last detail. Beautiful ripped fabric curtains, hand-embroidered table numbers, vintage bridesmaid dresses - this wedding was perfect in every way. *Update - they even had our favorite graphic designer create their invites; see more here!
We got to set up on this amazing little stretch of grass, and it was so refreshing to be outside in the sun and feel the summer breeze. Cath and Aaron's guests loved our snow cones, and we felt so humbled to be a part of their big day.
|We couldn't keep these girls away!
Thank you, Aaron and Cath, for having us! Your day was perfect, and we're so happy for you!

Week 11
Your baby, just over 1 1/2 inches long and about the size of a fig, is now almost fully formed. Her hands will soon open and close into fists, tiny tooth buds are beginning to appear under her gums, and some of her bones are beginning to harden.
She's already busy kicking and stretching, and her tiny movements are so effortless they look like water ballet. These movements will become more frequent as her body grows and becomes more developed and functional. You won't feel your baby's acrobatics for another month or two — nor will you notice the hiccupping that may be happening now that her diaphragm is forming.
Symptoms: Still tired and some headaches. And always hungry.
Weight Gain: another 1 lb.. so 7 total.
Cravings: No specific cravings, just food
Food Aversions: none
What made me cry this week: No crying this week. I have been as Jayden says, "grouchy." Poor hubby I jump on him way more than usual. Just tonight I got stern with Jayden, he walked into the living room and John said, "what did mommy tell you?" Jayden said, "she's grouchy daddy." You just have to laugh at that.
Thoughts from Jayden: Jayden still believes the baby is in his tummy, but also in mine. Jayden lifted my shirt to see my tummy and looked at my belly button. He saw the hole where it was pierced (took it out with my pregnancy with Jayden and never put it back in) and he said, "Hey wait a minute! What happened mommy?" Jayden was also in time out the other night and when I went to talk to him he had opened the door to the spare room (will be the baby's room). I told him close the door he is not supposed to be in there. He said, "its Kenny's room." (My BIL that lived with us for a few months, Jayden always refers to it as his room) I said, "no its going to be the baby's room soon." He looked at me and said, "its not Kenny's room no more.. its for the baby?" You can tell he was processing the whole idea that the baby will have a room.
Something I am excited about: My Doctor Appointment on Thursday. :)

CJ-7 Jeep Builds Restoration with 200 hours
April 23, 2019
Auto Body Tips, Body and Paint, Classic Car Restoration, Muscle Car Restoration, New Car Builds, Tech TipsApril 6, 20171 Comment
If you're a classic car lover then this article should help you…
Unlike many of the new cars in production currently, some of which have the bodies and metal parts dipped a zinc-coating or anti-corrosion primers… One of the best car manufacturers out there for protecting the bodies is Porsche. They were way ahead of the curve.
Unfortunately the classic and muscle cars, when they were built back in the day by the Big 3, they used very little sealer and virtually no paint on the undersides.
Below is how to keep your envy-inspiring dream machine from, slowly but surely, turning into a rust bucket:
First of all, if you are just building and restoring a car, then you are going to be able to take different steps than someone who already owns a complete car.
These steps are if you are building a car and what to do as you are building it to prevent it from rusting away due to moisture.
Below you will see my weapons in the war against rust when I restore a classic or muscle car:
PPG makes an awesome product that has been out for a long time. When we do media blasting on the frames and the underside of the bodies, DP90 is a nice Epoxy Primer that comes in black which is awesome for the chassis and steel bodies. This would be my first line of defense. Of course then at that point, it will be refinished in whatever color we are shooting the chassis and undersides.
The Debeer Primer is the best I've seen in 34 years. We started using this primer about 10 years ago. What turned me onto it was that it was a very heavy, high-build primer that came in black, white, and buff. Most high-end automotive finish paint companies don't offer high-solids urethane black primer (which is absolutely necessary if you plan on having your high-end job laser straight after body work).
The 3M bare metal seam sealer is, believe it or not, on the 64-70 Ford Mustangs and the 67-69 Camaros, the factory did horrible with sealing the cars. This let water come in from the inside and from underneath. We use the 3M bare metal seam sealer in certain areas and then we use the heavy bodied seam sealer where were are filling big voids.
This is really good stuff to shoot inside:
This is basically like the old war days when they used to shoot the cosmoline on the military Jeeps so that they wouldn't rust on the transport ships overseas.
Due to the accumulation of mud, sand, road salt, and everything else on the road - rust is likely to target your classic car's underside and wheel areas. Pay special attention to these spots.
Also, be careful when using a high-pressure washer, as these can remove the protective under seal.
We suggest rinsing out your cars when you get them dirty and make sure to keep dirt out of the wheel wells. You can even use a blow-gun to blow-dry the car when you're done to remove the water from behind the stainless moldings and whatnot.
I'm sure everyone has heard of the Mother's Spray mist where if the cars not dirty just give it a little mist and wipe it down. This keeps your car dry.
The smartest and best way you can keep your classic car looking and running beautifully for years to come is by befriending with a classic car restoration specialist in Florida.
You'll get the expert advice you need to keep rust and other threats at bay.
And just as importantly, you can be assured that you'll be supported by a team that cares as much about classic cars as you do.

I like what this article recommends about paying close attention to the wheel areas. It makes sense that these areas are a common victim of rust due to their exposure. I'll have to remember this because my brakes seem to be getting really rusty and keeping them rust free would be helpful to ensure the safety of driving it.

Layers of pound cake, toffee ice cream, and pumpkin ice cream stack up to make this fabulous dessert. The foolproof meringue is made with powdered egg whites and marshmallow cream.
1. Line 8-1/2 x 4-1/2-inch loaf pan with plastic wrap with enough overhang to cover top. In large bowl, whisk pumpkin, sugar and pie spice. Stir in 1 pint softened ice cream. Spoon into prepared pan, smoothing top. Freeze until ice cream is firm enough to put next layer on top, about 1 hour.
2. In same bowl, stir together remaining ice cream and toffee bits. Spoon over top of pumpkin ice cream layer, smoothing top. Bring sides of plastic wrap over to cover top. Freeze several hours or overnight until firm.Assemble:
3. Cut cake horizontally in half. Save one piece for snacking. Place other on ovenproof serving platter or in shallow baking dish.
4. Heat oven to 500 degrees F.
5. In large bowl, mix powdered whites and warm water. Let stand 2 minutes; stir to dissolve. Beat at high speed until soft peaks form. Beat in marshmallow until stiff peaks form.
6. Remove pan from freezer; remove wrapped ice cream from pan. Fold sides of wrap back from top of ice cream; invert ice cream onto cake layer. Peel off wrap. With spatula, spread entire cake and ice cream with egg white mixture, sealing completely to platter and decoratively swirling.
7. Bake on middle shelf in 500 degree F oven until lightly browned, 3 to 4 minutes. Makes 12 servings.

Smoky Sausage
Gluten free, Lactose free, FODMAP friendly
Prep time: several hours or overnight
Yield: about 1/2 pound
I love a campfire, a fire in the fireplace, and just about anything smoky-flavored. Here's a sausage that's good crumbled over a gluten free pizza or in scrambled eggs, or browned as breakfast meat patties.
- ½ lb ground bison, beef, venison, or other digestible meat
- ¼ tsp each of sage, sweet marjoram, and thyme
- ¼ tsp ground black pepper (more, if you like hot and spicy sausage)
- ¾ tsp Liquid Smoke, more or less as you prefer*
- 2 tsp olive oil, or more if meat is very lean
- 1 tsp kosher salt
- Re-grind meat in food processor.
- Place ground meat in a bowl with all other ingredients. Smoosh it together with clean hands or a hefty spoon.
- Pack it down in the bowl, cover close to the meat with wax paper or plastic wrap, and refrigerate several hours or overnight to blend the flavors.
- Form into 1-oz. blobs or 2-oz. patties, or crumble into a heavy frying pan. Add olive oil if necessary. Sauté until brown.
Cooking for One:
These freeze well after cooking.
*Don't taste raw sausage. If you'd like to adjust the spices, try cooking a small sample. Still, the flavors won't fully blend until the sausage has been refrigerated for several hours. Overnight is ideal.

**UPDATE 2/16/17** The Pikes Peak Children's Museum no longer rents space from the Space Foundation Discovery Center.**
The Space Foundation Discovery Center is a museum on Colorado Springs's west side that is dedicated to space, technology, and engineering. This museum also contains the Pikes Peak Children's Museum which takes up a large corner of the Discovery Center.
The Space Foundation Discovery Center was on our Colorado Bucket List 2017. We went on a cold day in January when our outside options were limited.
We were the first ones there when they opened and the staff was very friendly and showed my older 2 boys how to do the scavenger hunt. There is a full size space suit right at the beginning of the museum which I thought was fascinating.
Almost immediately the corner that contains the Pikes Peak Children's Museum caught my boys' eyes. They rotate their exhibits approximately every 2 months and we were there right at the end of their Little Builders Exhibit. The Pikes Peak Children's Museum was opened in October 2015 and admission is included in price when you visit the Space Foundation Discovery Center.
The Discovery Center exhibits include a small model lunar module, interactive exhibits to include making a space station and putting space clothes on wooden people, has an exhibit on space food (my 4 yo was very fascinated with the video of the floating food in outer space), a mars robotic lab, Science on a Sphere, Mars Viking Lander, scale model rockets, Huygens probe, and different moon exploration exhibits. There were also various arts and crafts stations available.
Our overall impressions of the Space Discovery Center:
- The Pikes Peak Children's Museum is what saved the morning for our 2 younger boys (ages 4 and 21 months). If it wasn't for this super interactive exhibit they both would have been bored to tears.
- The Mars rover was a lot of fun for the 2 older boys- they had control over a remote control car that was exploring 'Mars.'
- The giant sphere (Science on a Sphere) was pretty cool- even the baby was mesmerized by the different maps that were projected onto the screen.
- This is a great museum for young space enthusiasts. There's a lot to read to help learn about the different items on display.
- If you homeschool, they offer a ton of resources and activities.
Boys' ages at time of visit: 5, 4, and 21 months.
Location: 4425 Arrowswest Drive, Colorado Springs, CO 80907

GPU computing today struggles with the following problems:
- Programming ease: The programmer needs to statically allocate GPU resources (registers, scratchpad, threads) to threads and this is hard and non-optimal as tuning is hard.
- Portability: An optimized specification on one GPU may be suboptimal (losing upto 70% performance) on another GPU.
- Performance: Since the programmer allocates resources statically and fixed manner, the performance suffer and dynamic underutilization occur when the program resource utilization vary through execution.
To address the above problems, Zorua (named after the shapeshifting illusionist Pokemon) virtualizes the GPU resources (threads, registers, and scratchpad). Zorua gives the illusion of more GPU resources than physically available, and dynamically manages these resources behind the scenes to co-host multiple applications on the GPU, alleviating the dynamic underutilization problem alluded above.
To create this illusion, Zorua employs a hardware-software codesign that consists of 3 components: (1) the compiler annotates the program to specify the resource needs of each phase of the application; (2) a runtime system, referred to as the coordinator, uses the compiler annotations to dynamically manage the virtualization of the different on-chip resources; and (3) the hardware employs mapping tables to locate a virtual resource in the physically available resources or in the swap space in main memory.
Of course, this illusion will fail when you try to cram more than feasible to the GPU. But the nice thing about Zorua is it fails gracefully: The coordinator component of Zorua schedules threads only when the expected gain in thread-level parallelism outweighs the cost of transferring oversubscribed resources from the swap space in memory.
One thing that I wondered was why Zorua needed the compiler annotation, and why the runtime alone was not sufficient. I think the compiler annotation helps buy us the graceful degradation property. GPU computing is not very nimble; it has a lot of staging overhead. The annotations give a heads up to the coordinator for planning the scheduling in an overhead-aware manner.
The paper does not mention any application of Zorua for machine learning applications. I think Zorua would be useful for making DNN serving/inference applications colocate on the same GPU and preventing the server-sprawl problem, as it alleviates the dynamic underutilization problem.
I wonder if Zorua can provide benefits for machine learning training. Since machine learning training is done in batch, it would utilize GPU pretty consistently, stalling briefly in between rounds/iterations. However, by running two iterations in off-step manner as in Stale-Synchronous Parallelism, it may be possible to get benefit from Zorua GPU virtualization.
A related work for using GPUs efficiently for Deep Learning is the Poseidon work. Poseidon optimizes the pipelining of GPU computing at a very fine granularity, at the sub DNN layer, to eliminate the stalling/idle-waiting of the GPU.

Kruk and P.R.E.S.C.O. have agreed on the main terms of the purchase of 100% of shares in the Luxembourg group P.R.E.S.C.O. Both companies work in the field of purchase of receivables. KRUK, as the leader in receivables management in Central Europe, wants to take over P.R.E.S.C.O. by acquiring 100% of its shares and the right to administer its portfolios of receivables in Poland.
P.R.E.S.C.O. is one of the leading entities investing in receivables on the Polish and Russian markets. The company has been operating since 1998 and specializes in purchasing receivables portfolios that are considered difficult to recover by their original owners. In 2014, the company had 1,999 cases. The total value of cases of KRUK Group, calculated at nominal value, amounted to 24 billion zloty by the end of the first half of 2015.
After Kruk signed the letter of intent for the purchase of Presco Investments, shares in Presco rose by 95.5 percent. The deal ensures Kruk's acquisition of 2 million cases handled on the Polish market by P.R.E.S.C.O. They will feed into the database of cases already owned by the group, and so the number of cases handled by Kruk will increase to over 5 million.
The final signing of the agreement is not yet certain. It depends on whether the companies manage to agree on the detailed terms and conditions. The investment agreement is to be signed before October 30 this year, but it is still necessary to obtain the consent of the President of the OCCP and Kruk's supervisory board. Both sides have agreed, however, that the transaction value would not exceed 220 million zloty.
The takeover operation of Presco Investments by the Kruk Group may also require the acquisition of structures. As an announcement from Presco states: "We believe that the transaction involving the acquisition by KRUK S.A. of a subsidiary P.R.E.S.C.O. in connection with the possible acquisition of part of the operating structures in Pila, will allow the KRUK Group to realize significant synergies. P.R.E.S.C.O.'s experienced team combined with the excellent operational processes of the market leader would take full advantage of the enormous potential of the acquired receivables portfolio. Therefore, I am convinced that closing this transaction will be very beneficial for both parties."
"After completion of the transaction, P.R.E.S.C.O. GROUP S.A. intends to concentrate on promising projects in the area of consumer finance, for which we have been preparing in recent quarters" adds Krzysztof Piwoński from Presco Group in a press release from the company, which has been listed on the main market of the Warsaw Stock Exchange since 2011, and it is valued at more than 111 million zloty.

Next week Holden's new trash hauler, Casella Waste Services, will be distributing the new trash toters. Town officials ask residents to keep their green Town of Holden toters out at the curb just a little longer on their trash day the week of June 25-29 so that Casella knows where to drop a blue toter.
The new trash system, with recyclables placed in the large green toter and trash in the blue Casella toter, begins the week of July 2-6.
Starting July 2, Holden residents who haven't opted out of the town's trash collection should put their recyclables in the 95-gallon green container with the Town of Holden seal on it ("green" habits - green toter). Trash should go in the blue Casella toter. All recyclable materials should be free of food waste. The town asks that residents wash out the Town of Holden toter before filling it with recyclables. A sticker labeling the Town of Holden toter for recyclables will also be distributed.
Recyclables include: newspapers, magazines, catalogs, telephone books, soft cover books, junk mail, envelopes (all types), paper (all colors, staples/paper clips are okay), paperboard (cereal/shoe boxes), milk and juice cartons, cardboard, brown paper bags, plastic bottles and containers numbered 1 to 7, soda, juice and water bottles (glass or plastic), milk jugs, bleach, detergent and shampoo bottles; food containers (cottage cheese, margerine, yogurt), glass bottles and jars (any color); aluminum (pie plates, trays, foil); metal cans (tin, steel and aluminum).
NO: plastic bags, unmarked plastics (such as laundry baskets, chairs, toys), windows or light bulbs, dishes, Pyrex, ceramics, foam packaging, Styrofoam, aerosol cans (paint, hairspray, cleaners); recyclables containing food waste.

Just then they heard a knocking sound. At first it wasn't that loud but it was where it was coming from that was so alarming.
CHAPTER: 26. Sequel to "SEARCH AND RESCUE"
AUTHOR: Alison M. DOBELL
PAIRING: Zoe/Wash Kaylee/Simon Mal/Inara
SUMMARY: "With the Captain almost fully recovered
River convinces them they have to return to Anaeron. The
Hunter is temporarily thwarted and Davie finds a new ally
in a strange new world."
A "Firefly" Story
Written by Alison M. DOBELL
* * * * *
Ever since the crazy girl had insisted they go back Jayne had been trying to wrap his head around what in the in nine hells she thought they could accomplish. "How're we supposed to rescue everybody on that gorram planet?"
River shook her head. "We're not, there's too many, or at least there were."
"Then what's the point in goin' back?" Asked Zoe.
"They saved us, now it's our turn."
Kaylee was confused. "*Shei*?"
The Captain had been watching and listening, having pretty much worked it out already. "You're talkin' about Jerrod Perkins, *dui*?"
"*Qu*. They're trapped but we can save them. Fly Serenity right over the warehouse."
"Yeah, but it's not like they'll wanna let us in."
Kaylee looked at Jayne, noticing his sour expression. "Why would they do that? We're friends."
"What do ya suppose they're gonna think when we tell 'em Shen is dead?"
Serenity's mechanic paled, she had forgotten about that. Simon didn't like the way Kaylee was getting upset. "That wasn't our fault and you know it, Jayne."
"They don't know that though do they?" Jayne retorted. "We go back we'll just be stirrin' up more gorram trouble."
"An' yet it's the right thing to do."
Jayne stared at the Captain as if he had taken leave of his senses. "You're *shenjingbing* 'cause there's still a gorram Alliance Dreadnought out there an' I ain't plannin' on endin' up in no *jianyu*."
"You won't," said River confidently "they'll shoot you first."
For a moment confusion clouded his mental acuity. Silas blinked as if the act of doing so could clear his mind. Having lost contact with the girl he had rejoiced at the flare in the boy so bright it was a beacon calling him even though he was off world. The Hunter extended his mental probing to incapacitate the child until he could reach him. Then suddenly, out of nowhere, contact was broken. Now both targets were lost to him but more importantly how had the boy managed to shut him out? He knew the boy was strong which was why he had waited until after nightfall, hoping to tap into his sleeping consciousness and gain control without having a fight on his hands and it had worked perfectly. Had the boy woken up? Or had someone intervened? Either option was intriguing but also frustrating and Silas did not like being thwarted.
The Hunter needed a place to retreat to so that he could meditate and review all that had happened. Perhaps he had missed some sign? As he started to retrace his steps he thought he heard something. He froze and listened carefully, whatever the noise was it did not occur again. Troubled, he took more care moving around, his eyes sharp and constantly scanning around him but there was nothing. No movement and no mental activity in his vicinity. To all intents and purposes he was alone but Silas was alert now and took nothing for granted.
The Lady could not understand the loss of contact. Not only was she unable to get any response from Chou but communication with Ithaca Moon and Anaeron was not possible either. What in the nine hells was going on? She stared at her major domo. Matthew James Wong waited patiently, no expression on his face. The Lady thought of sending him to physically check but did not want to lose him as well. No. The prudent thing to do would be to wait. Sooner or later word would surface. There was no need to expose her interest or take unnecessary risks. Having come to a decision she instructed Wong to stand down. Her major domo bowed and the screen went blank.
"What're we gonna do, *laoban*?"
Jerrod Perkins was worried. The images that came back from the remote were beyond disturbing. With the Alliance involved in the massacre at the market place and dock area he had to wonder how long it would be until they extended their reach to the warehouse district. For now they were safe but how long would that last? With the docks effectively destroyed along with everyone who worked there getting off world was out of the question: they were stuck here. Fortunately with all the trouble they had experienced at the hands of various triads and criminal gangs Jerrod had made his premises more fortress than anything else. From the outside it looked much like all the other warehouse complexes but the inside walls were reinforced like a ship's bulkheads and the roof above their heads had a cunningly concealed iris that could be opened to allow take off and landing of shuttles directly into his premises. It made the movement of their shipments more secure although making a living on Anaeron was getting riskier and harder all the time. This latest crisis was like to wipe it out altogether.
"For now we stay put, Billy. Howdy, go check on our supplies."
"What about the remote?"
"Best leave it where it is until we're sure the purplebellies have really gone. Don't want them noticin' the remote an' followin' it back to us, *dong ma*?"
Every head nodded, not one of them wanting to risk bringing the Alliance down on their heads. Just then they heard a knocking sound. At first it wasn't that loud but it was where it was coming from that was so alarming. Jerrod stared up above his head, his face going pale. No one moved. After a minute the knocking sound came again, louder now and heavier, as if a weight was being dropped or lowered on the roof then lifted off again.
"It's the Alliance! They've ruttin' well come for us!"
Perkins frowned. "Nah, whoever it is it ain't them. Alliance don't knock, they just blow you the good gorram into kindlin'."
Billy's eyes were round. All the men had drawn their guns but at least no one was firing yet. Jerrod didn't fancy getting hit by a ricochet.
"Who'd ya reckon it is, *laoban*?"
"If we had the remote we could take a look-see." Said Billy.
Stan Evans clicked his fingers and holstered his gun. "We can use the compound sensors, just need to realign 'em to cover the roof."
It was the first sensible idea Perkins had heard. He gave a curt nod and wished he had thought of it. As Stan ran off to set it up he just hoped whoever was trying to get in wouldn't lose patience and start blasting their way through.
Commandant Urquart was more than satisfied. Not only did they have ample footage of the testing of the bio-tech weapon but Sgt Elias Grant had gone down to the surface with two men in their heavily shielded containment suits to check the results first hand. Their reports were most gratifying. Urquart failed to notice a number of his crew looking a mite queasy as they viewed the carnage. However, they knew that any sign of disapproval or weakness would not be tolerated and it took no time at all for their faces to quickly assume the blank lack of expression that was expected of them. Queasy or not they had good survival instincts.
"Told ya, they don't trust us."
The Captain felt faintly exasperated though he did not actually blame his mercenary. "Jayne, they don't know it's us."
Kaylee looked anxious, as if the inability to contact their friends by hovering over the warehouse roof and firing their downward thrusters in light bursts was somehow her fault. "I could try an' run a line down to 'em, Cap'n."
"You do that Kaylee, it'll need to attach to one of the air vents in the roof, *dong ma*?"
"Those vents are closed, sir." Said Zoe, her voice deadpan. Not a flicker of judgement in the tone of her voice.
"*Wo bu zhidao* but they'll hear it connect better than a solid section, *dui*?"
"Don't know what use that'll do us, sir."
"I wanna draw their attention, maybehaps they got a way of detectin' us that we don't know about."
"What way is that, sir?"
"If I knew it wouldn't be a way we don't know about would it?"
"Oooh," said Jayne, his voice tinged with glee "gettin' a mite testy, Cap."
The Captain turned an unamused eye on his mercenary. "Best hope I don't go from testy to endin' him as made me so."
Jayne blinked. Did the Captain mean him?
"Kaylee, you ready?"
Everyone made their way to the cargo bay except Wash, who was keeping the ship steady, and Inara who was looking to see where River had gone. Shepherd Book offered to help but the Companion had shaken her head and left. Jayne stared down at the open hatch in the bottom of the cargo bay and watched Kaylee use the winch to lower the cable. At the end of the line was a square blocky piece of metal with a grill on the underside. The blocky plate was magnetised so when it landed on the warehouse roof it would attach with a clang. The Captain was hoping the noise would get Jerrod's attention. If Jerrod had the right equipment they could use the line to communicate to him but if he didn't they would have to think of something else. Right now Jayne looked anything but impressed when Kaylee switched the magnet off then raised it and dropped it back on the roof with a loud clang.
"Huh, that don't look very technical to me."
Kaylee didn't look offended as she shut off the magentism, raised it again and repeated dropping it several times before stopping. "It ain't but they can't hail us. Tried to raise contact but don't know if they're bein' blocked or their electrics're out."
Jayne screwed up his face. "Why would ya' think they're bein' blocked?"
Shepherd Book's tone was dry. "For the same reason ours are."
"*Women qu nar*?" Hissed Davie.
"Sssh, you want us to get caught?"
Davie blinked back at her, mesmerised by those intense green eyes. It was as if she could see right through to the soul of him which was impossible, wasn't it? The soul being non corporeal or somesuch. He didn't quite know what it meant but his sister used to rattle on about all sorts of things he could only barely grasp and afterwards he was never quite sure if what he thought she was saying matched her words. Why were girls so confusing?
"I don't know about this. Mama is gonna be so *shengqi*."
The serious look staring back at him softened a mite. "I know this is scary, Davie, but you have a gift."
"Not as strong as yours."
"You were asleep an' no one taught you how to block. It's not your fault."
He fell silent, mulling over her words and feeling a mite *bushufu* with his outdoor clothes over his pajamas. Should have put socks on but they were in a hurry and the cold of his shoes made his feet feel a little numb. All in all he would rather be tucked up in his bed but then that would leave him to the mercy of his nightmares, wouldn't it? Deciding to trust his unexpected guardian angel, Davie gave her a tentative smile. His heart soaring when Suzie smiled back at him. They were running as quietly as they could towards the tree-line.
"You never said where we were goin'."
Suzie waited until they were beneath the darkened boughs, the trees closing protectively around them as they entered the small copse. "To help a friend."
His eyebrows rose in surprise, it almost matched the shock of unbrushed hair sticking up every which way. Suzie gently touched his shoulder as if to ground him, her voice a tender hush on his ears like large fluffly flakes of snows falling from a Winter sky.
"I helped you, *jide*?"
Davie nodded, not sure his voice still worked.
"Wouldn't you like to pass that gift on?" At his confused look she quickly clarified what she meant. "Wouldn't you like to help someone else like I helped you?"
He nodded, not sure why it meant so much that he keep her good opinion of him but he was grateful and Suzie had promised to help him learn to protect himself from future attacks. "How far is it?"
"A long, long way Davie but I know a short cut."
The confusion returned but one glance at those green eyes and all his reservations vanished. He trusted her completely and suddenly, in a flash of insight, he realised that from now on his world would never be the same again. As they hurried toward the docks Davie wondered whether he would ever see his family again. Somehow he knew that as long as he was no longer with them they would be safe but what about him and Suzie? What about her 'friend'? Was swapping one danger for another an act of inspiration or lunacy? Feeling his mind sharpen, Davie revelled in the alertness that seemed to infuse every atom of his small body and for some unfathomable reason resolved not to worry any more. Someone needed their help, 'his' help, and that knowledge was more empowering than anything else he could remember feeling.
Inara Serra found River in her room, sitting with her legs folded under her on her bed, her head tilted down so that the long lanky strands of her dark hair partly obscured her face. Her head angled slightly so she could see through the gaps in her hair as Inara drew back the tatami door. "They think they can hide their actions but it won't work."
The Companion moved slowly, her movements fluid as if every action she took would soothe as much as her words. "What won't work?"
"Something always gets out." River paused, tilted her head as she watched Inara reach her bed. Knew that the Companion had no idea what she was talking about. It was frustrating but not unexpected. "Nothing in or out but they can't stop the signal."
Inara sat on the bed. "*Shei, mei mei*? Who are they?"
"Big, powerful. Hide behind titles but they're all interchangeable. Helps them to vanish in plain sight."
"*Wo bu dong*."
"Two by two, hands of blue..."
Inara felt a stab of alarm and started to rise to her feet. "I should get Simon..."
"*Bu qu*." River started to shake her head then stopped, cocked her head for a moment before breaking into a sudden smile. "Door's open!"
The girl clambered off the bed so quickly that it took Inara a moment to follow her, surprised to find they were heading to the cargo bay. As she followed River down the metal staircase she heard the girl's sing-song voice carry loud and clear, as if she were quoting a nursery rhyme. "Knock and the door will open!"
Kaylee looked up and smiled as River joined her. "Yeah, well we been knockin' but..."
River lifted a raised index finger to her lips. "Sssshh!"
Everybody stopped what they were doing and stared at her, moments later a loud knocking echoed back at them. Kaylee squealed and broke into a delighted grin. "It worked, Cap'n! They heard us!"
A clatter on the metal staircase made Inara turn her head to see Simon join them, a look of relief on his newly awoken face. He was staring at his sister. "River, I've been looking everywhere for you!"
Her grin was unrepentent. "I wasn't lost."
"*Wei*! Somethin's happenin'."
Book and the Captain peered down to see what Jayne was looking at and saw the top of the warehouse start to open like the iris of a camera. Zoe thought it was kind of poetic.
"Huh," said Jayne "they still won't know it's us."
Exasperated, Kaylee flicked a hand at his arm but it was like being swatted by a baby fly. "Sure they will, they just gotta look up."
As the words left her lips they all heard the clear and unmistakable sound of numerous weapons being cocked below them. As Malcolm Reynolds looked down into the top of the warehouse he found himself staring at every weapon Jerrod Perkins had in his arsenal.
"Looks like Jerrod knows it's us after all, sir." Said Zoe drily.
"Maybe he knows what happened to Shen." Jayne added. His words got a glare from the Captain.
"They're not here, *shifu*."
"I can see that!" Snapped the Commandant. Spinning round he glared accusingly, making sure to spread the blame as thickly as he was able. "I ordered several tracking devices be fitted, *dong ma*?"
"We did, *shifu*. They must have found them."
Angry sparks fairly flew off the man. "And what about the inhibitor?"
His engineer stepped reluctantly forward. "It was attached to the engine, hidden from view *shifu*. It should have been undetectable."
Commandant Urquart's eyes were hard as flint. "I am surrounded by incompetents. You were given a simple task..."
"*Shifu*," the navigator interrupted carefully "the Firefly Captain said his ship needed fuel. They cannot have gone far."
"Except you are forgetting one thing." Urquart paused then leaned over his navigator, the poor man trying not to visibly quail with fear both at his Commander's nearness and the implied threat it carried. "There will be no refueling on Aneron or Ithaca Moon because all facilites have been destroyed."
Urquart straightened, just managing to keep what was left of his temper in check. He needed to think, keep a clear head. Then thoroughly and meticulously track down the errant Firefly and her slippery Captain.
Hiding behind the huge crates on Boros Docks, Davie stared round-eyed at his new friend. "If we get caught..."
Suzie hushed him, her voice the kind of whisper that could only be heard inside his head. 'Think what you want to say'
'I keep forgetting'
'You'll learn'
Davie shuddered involuntarily. All the men loading and unloading looked huge. He imagined one of them could crush his head in with one hand.
'Don't think like that'
'Let go of the fear and do as I do. Are you ready?'
He desperately wanted to ask her what she was planning but did not want to appear weak so he nodded instead. For a moment Suzie just gazed at him, hard. Then, satisfied he would follow she gave a nod and slipped between the crates, mind casting for him to stay close. To Davie's horror they were weaving their way closer and closer to a ship. It was big, bright but ugly. The cargo bay doors were larger than his house but there was no time to falter, Suzie quickly darted inside and he followed as if he was caught in her slip stream. Suzie disappeared into the shadows and Davie followed, heart in his mouth and body trembling. He had never done anything like this before.
'W...w...where are we going?'
'This is an Alliance haulier'
'A what?'
'Like a transport ship but much bigger'
'How do you know that?'
'Didn't you see the cranes? It carries serious cargo and nothing but which means we'll have lots of nooks and crannies to hide in but have to be very careful too. They'll be on the look for stowaways, fortunately I know where to hide'
'What's a stowaway?'
In the shadows of the cargo hold, Davie could just make out the white flash of her teeth. 'We are'.

Alcohol sales limited, court-martial results posted, more cops hired
No alcohol after 10 p.m. at base stores, and you'll have to walk to the back to find it at all. Published results of sexual assault trials on Navy and Marine Corps websites. At least 50 more Navy cops trained in sex crimes and forensics.
The Navy announced a slate of new policies Thursday in a continuing campaign to address the rising number of sexual assault cases across the
Those announcements came the same day the Pentagon's top leaders told a Senate committee that unit commanders should retain the decision-making power on when to prosecute.
That issue is being hotly contested in
"Somebody who is contemplating a sexual assault knows that they're going to be caught, that they're going to be prosecuted, and if they're prosecuted, they're going to be punished," said Adm. Sandy Winnfeld, vice chairman of the
The Navy said it is taking these particular steps because of lessons learned from surveys, focus groups and prior sexual assault investigations.
For instance, another new policy is to deploy civilian counselors on aircraft carriers and big amphibious ships, to provide an outside ear on sexual assault issues and suicide prevention. Those sea-going counselors should be in place by next September.
"It's pretty clear that some victims are reticent to come forward to uniformed members in the chain of command. This is an experiment we are trying — having civilian response coordinators for them to go to," Rear Adm. John Kirby, the Navy's top spokesman, said in a conference call with reporters Thursday.
"Let's talk again in eight to nine months and see if that comes to fruition. I think it's the first time anyone's tried this."
The victim advocacy group Protect Our Defenders said the initiatives announced by the Navy are helpful, but not the final answer.
The group wants to see the power to make prosecution decisions handed over to high-ranking military criminal attorneys — Navy captains or Marine Corps colonels — who are not members of the same units as victims or suspects.
"Until there are fundamental reforms to address the epidemic of military sexual assault, we will not see substantial change," spokesman Brian Purchia said.
The Navy Department wants to pull back the curtain on its legal apparatus by posting online the results of courts-martial.
The first round, covering January through June, will go up by next Thursday. Future results will be published regularly, the department promised
However, it will stop short of naming names of those charged or convicted — which will likely disappoint some people who might see that step as a greater deterrent to offenders.
"The goal was to show that the judicial process works, that Navy cases are going to trial and dealt with … not to get into the nitty-gritty details of each case," Kirby said.
On the investigation end, Secretary of the Navy Ray Mabus announced the allocation of $10 million to hire more than 50 extra Naval Criminal Investigative Service agents to shorten investigation times.
Of those, 34 will be field agents who are experts in sex crimes.
Lt. Cmdr. Sarah Flaherty said this move follows a pilot program in Norfolk, Va. There, an NCIS sex crimes team was able to reduce the average wait time between report and case conclusion from 300 days to 80 or 90.
More than half of sexual assaults in the Navy involve drinking. To address that, Navy brass is making access to alcohol more difficult in several ways.
Hard liquor will only be available in large base stores, called exchanges, and no longer in mini marts. Booze can only be sold between 6 a.m. and 10 p.m., and only in the back 10 percent of the store. Stores will also be required to sell disposal breathalyzer units.
One official familiar with current alcohol sale policy said many Navy stores already follow most of those guidelines. Now, however, the policy is in writing.
Some of the other programs announced Thursday are a continuation of a pilot program launched in San Diego. They include a so-called shore patrol of senior enlisted sailors who walk base barracks at night looking for potential problems.
Reports of sexual assault skyrocketed 32 percent in the Navy last year, with 726 cases compared with 550 the prior year, according to a
In total for the U.S. military, reports involving active-duty personnel rose about 6 percent, from 3,192 in fiscal 2011 to 3,374 in 2012.
Navy officials said they believe some of their increase was sailors coming forward with older cases, as the military's attitude toward sexual assault has become more sympathetic to victims — who are usually females in their 20s.
New Navy policies
• Hiring specialized NCIS personnel to help resolve sexual assault investigations more efficiently
• A new policy at on-base Navy Exchange stores that limits sales and availability of alcohol
• Regular publishing of courts-martial information to demonstrate transparency and accountability
• Fleetwide expansion of prevention and response "best practices" and pilot programs

Though it's important to stay on schedule with your medications, there may be times when you accidentally miss a dose or take one late. This could happen to anyone taking medications on a regular basis.
As we mentioned earlier, it's important that a certain amount of medication be in your body at all times in order for the effects of treatment to be seen. Skipping doses may lower the benefits of the medication, and make it more difficult for your body to destroy the virus.
If you DO accidentally miss a peginterferon injection, be sure to tell your healthcare provider as soon as possible. He or she can give you specific instructions on whether you should take the missed dose right away, or skip it and start again on the next scheduled dose. They can also give you ideas for making a plan to help you remember to take your medicine on time.
You should make a note of the times when you miss taking your medications. If you see that there are certain times when this happens, you may be able to adjust your schedule so that you can take your medications at the time when you are less likely to forget.
If you miss a dose of medication, you may not notice the effects immediately. Although you may not feel any different, there ARE real consequences to skipping your medications. Not taking your medications may lower your chance of getting rid of the virus.

I finally opened up a bit and shared some of my history with the ladies bible study on Tuesday night. I was very nervous to let any of these women know what I had been through.
Most of them have known Riddick for years, and I want to get to know them as well.
After I said what was on my heart I wasn't sure what would happen.
Mary understood. When I said that my burden is fear she knew it was partly fear of the "waiting for the other shoe to drop"....than she added that Riddick was my
"balm of gilead"
It's a reference she heard once to Jeremiah 8:22
Is there no balm in Gilead?
Is there no physician there?
Why then is there no healing
for the wound of my people?
It references the people of Gilead having ready access to a soothing balm but still suffering because of their own sin.
I was suffering from someone else's sin. But my sin is letting it harm me still.

Sidebarred: A Legal Briefs Novella on April 24th 2016
Genres: Contemporary Romance
Format: e-ARC
Source: Publicist
There was a time when Jake Becker had it all together. He was controlled, driven, ruthless—in and out of the courtroom.
Then, six irresistible orphans and their heartbreakingly beautiful aunt crashed into his perfectly ordered life. They changed everything. They changed him. Now he's a husband, an upstanding member of society, a father figure—a family man.And he's pretty damn good at it.
Sure, he has to referee sibling smackdowns, re-learn algebra, ensure his clients stay of jail, and keep his wife happy—but it finally feels like he's got it together again....
So, of course something has to screw it all up. It's huge. Life-changing. Kind of terrifying.
And it will be the most amazing, perfect thing he'll ever do.
Lou:I was so excited when I saw the surprise announcement that Chase was returning to Jake and Chelsea's world with the kids. Sustained was such a fun and sexy and enjoyable read for me and I do love it when a strong heroine brings an arrogant hero down to his knees! Sidebarred returns to Jake and Chelsea after two years of married life. Jake and Chelsea are still head-over-in-love with each other and the heat these two ignite is smoking hot. And Jake's narration is just darn perfect. The voice draws you in and fails to let you go. And I stayed happily captured in his story. Chelsea and Jake get pregnant! Despite having a football team for a family, who are still as adorable and crazy as ever, Jake and Chelsea want a baby. It was so sweet and sexy, and each kid's response was hilarious, and very touching, especially Raymond's reaction . Seeing the kids grow and seeing how Jake loves them so much still (perhaps even more so?) was *happy sigh* It was perfect and I glommed Sidebarred so fast. There is a little bit of tension with a side-story of Chelsea's boss and Jake is still learning how not to be too much of an arrogant ass.
This was a perfect read and a heartwarming return to Jake and Chelsea. The epilogue also melted my heart and I was sad to say goodbye to this couple and the family.
I give Sidebarred an A+
Has: I adored Sustained, which I think is my favourite Emma Chase's novel yet, although Tangled does come a very close second! But I was also overjoyed to hear that there would be another story featuring Jake, Chelsea, and their brood of six kids. Sidebarred definitely capped their journey in a wonderfully and sexy way. Once again, Jake Becker's narration was just fantastic and filled with witty and snarky commentary, as well as a touch of poignancy, especially when dealing with his feelings for his father figure and Raymond's fears for Chelsea.
I really loved how the children reacted to the news of the new addition to the family, which had me laughing out loud and was a standout scene in the novella. But it was also great to see updates for the other couples who have decided to have their own babies. Sidebarred was the perfect ending for a fantastic couple, who have become one of my favourite romances because it is not only about the love story between Jake and Chelsea but one about him falling for a family.
I give Sidebarred a wonderful A+

U18s: City 2 United 2 – Reds rue missed opportunity as City snatch a point
Posted by nickogs20 on September 26, 2010
September 25th 2010, 11am
Platt Lane, Manchester
|Manchester City U18s
|Manchester United U18s
|Bunn 2, 80
|Pogba 23
|Cofie 50
Seemingly following the first team's lead this season, for a third consecutive week United's U18s let a winning position slip as a late equaliser secured City a 2-2 draw at Platt Lane.
The Blues had taken an early lead through prolific striker Harry Bunn, but United turned the game on its head with goals from Paul Pogba and John Cofie and thoroughly dominated the game for long spells either side of half-time. The Reds' failure to add a decisive third goal while in the ascendancy always looked like it could be costly though, and so it proved as Bunn grabbed his and City's second ten minutes from time to earn the hosts a somewhat fortuitous point.
Paul Pogba's inclusion in the starting XI was the big surprise, the French midfielder having been out since June with a knee injury that was thought likely to keep him out for another couple of months. That was one of five changes to the side that drew at Sheffield United last week, Sam Johnstone, Michael Keane, Michele Fornasier and Will Keane all coming in as Paul McGuinness fielded near enough the strongest side available to him.
The home side came into the game unbeaten, boasting the same record as United so far this season – three wins followed by two draws – and weren't to be taken lightly, particularly academy football's form striker Harry Bunn, who had scored seven in his previous five games. Gifting Bunn an almost unmissable opportunity inside the first couple of minutes certainly won't have been on the Reds' agenda, but gift him one they did, and it was duly taken. Michael Keane switched off and underhit a pass inside to Fornasier, giving Alex Henshall the chance to intercept and set up the unmarked Bunn for a simple finish.
Understandably shaken, it took a while for the Reds to find their feet, Johnstone being called upon on a couple of occasions to keep the deficit at just one. Gradually the United midfield started to assert their authority on the game however, Ryan Tunnicliffe particularly influential alongside the returning Pogba, and pressure started to build on the City goal. Michael Keane had a shot fly just wide and a low cross fizz across the face of goal without a touch, but the next occasion United found themselves in the Blues box was third time lucky. Tom Thorpe, forward for a set-piece, expertly took down Sean McGinty's high cross and rolled the ball low across the six-yard box for the lurking Pogba to tap home.
It was a deserved equaliser and United proceeded to control proceedings for the remainder of the half, albeit without overly threatening to take the lead – the only real chance fell to Will Keane, who uncharacteristically swiped at thin air when the ball seemingly fell to him enticingly just ten yards out. If McGuinness' half-time team-talk stressed the need to be more incisive and turn dominance into goals, it seemed to be well and truly taken onboard – initially at least. Barely five minutes had elapsed in the second half before United were ahead, and it was the Reds' own prolific centre-forward who struck, John Cofie working space on the edge of the box and firing home from twenty yards for his fifth academy goal of the campaign (and eighth at all levels).
There followed a 20-25 minute spell that almost resembled an attack vs defence training exercise as the visitors poured forward and laid siege to the City goal, the Blues happy to just hack the ball clear and take a breather before the next wave of United attacks arrived. Again there was a paucity of genuine chances being created however, the lack of width going forward for the Reds making things extremely congested on the edge of the opposition box, where their impressive quick passing and clever interplay typically foundered on the sheer mass of bodies blocking their path.
Despite being massively outclassed in terms of possession, City couldn't help but be encouraged by United's failure to break them down and started to sense that there might be a way back into the game for them. Indeed, as attack after attack petered out at one end, it started to almost seem inevitable that the Reds would be caught with a sucker punch from one of the increasingly frequent counter-attacks their rivals were putting together, and it was of little surprise when one such move ten minutes from time ended with Bunn, far and away the standout player in blue, bursting past two defenders and firing an unstoppable effort past Johnstone.
United's response was to surge forward in even greater number in search of the winner their dominance merited, but that almost ended up leading to what would have been the hardest of defeats to swallow. Over-committed in attack, hearts were in mouths in the last couple as minutes as the hattrick-hunting Bunn let fly from distance with a dipping effort that looked destined to sneak under the crossbar until a brilliant intervention from Johnstone, who tipped the ball behind at full-stretch. Both sides fancied their chances of nabbing all three points at this stage but time was against them, referee Bell soon signalling full-time and then brandishing a yellow card as something of a melée formed around him, possibly in the direction of the outstanding Tunnicliffe, who more than anyone deserved to be on a winning side.
A point away at a strong (if relatively unimpressive on the day) City side is far from a bad result and some of the football from United's youngsters – particularly after the break – was wonderful, so there are plenty of positives to take from this one. Nonetheless, the Reds will doubtless be keen to return to winning ways after three straight draws, starting with the visit of Blackburn Rovers to Carrington next weekend.
