Sagittarius is also called the-sign-philosopher. They like to explore every corner of the unknown part of life thoroughly in their forever eternal search for wisdom & will go also as far as the road will go. Freedom is very much important to Sagittarius people, that they actually make any kind of decision just based on how far freedom they have actually got in a certain matter to complete, for this reason, sometimes a very good opportunity also they let them go. Sagittarius people are a very well-adjusted person with, no emotional- problems. Sometimes, others may be hurt by their, lack-of-commitment but they do not care.
Sagittarius Sign Characteristics Vedic Astrology: The ruler of this sign is Jupiter which represents religion; philosophy; expansion of wisdom; education & higher knowledge. Sagittarius represents the rational & traditional ideology of Jupiter. These people love to follow the religious path, but Sagittarius people are more practical than being in the dreamy world of, philosophical knowledge. Their wisdom originates from logical thinking.
Sagittarius Personality Traits In Astrology: Sagittarius sign personality: Sagittarius people love to study, they always try to complete their masters' degree, Ph.D. & become a professor or teacher. Sagittarius people are also a free spirit & give the same to their partner, & also expect the same, in return. Talk about intellectual & logical things are more important than lovemaking to Sagittarius people. That's why maximum time they only like to get someone as a partner with low sexual drive, rather they prefer high educational & intellectual drive. The best profession for Sagittarius people would be, to become a teacher; researcher; writer; priest; astrologers; philosophers; archaeologist & any kind of profession related to teaching.
Sagittarius Horoscope In Astrology: Sagittarians people have a simultaneous need, for activity. Meeting with new people, going out in the outer world, & travel is all that is important to their, sense-of-well-being. Sagittarius people are not emotional but they're very easily hurt by just a careless & selfish action of others.
When at any point in life anything gets tough; these people just run away. They do not love to be caught up, in routine – for a too long period, & they just need to escape.

Knowing When (or Not) to Let Go

I'm pretty sure most of us consider life to be sacred, and not just those of us who are Catholic. Too, assuming that Rasouli would follow the current doctrine of the Church because he described himself as Catholic might not be accurate. After all, 99% of Catholic women use contraception some time during their reproductive years. I think what you mean is that the definition of life varies.ReplyDelete

E3 2015/Import Preview: Persona 4 Dancing All Night
I was originally going to write about Persona 4 Dancing All Night in respect to the demo version I had the opportunity to play at E3. However about a week after E3, the game came out in Japan and I decided to import it. Rather than write about 20 minutes I spent playing a demo, I figured it'd be better to write about the full (Japanese) version of the game. As one might expect, the E3 demo was pretty similar to the final product, just in English so I would imagine most of this will apply to the game when it releases outside of Japan.
Persona 4 Dancing All Night is the latest in Persona 4's quest to invade every genre of game out there. Dancing All Night is not an RPG, like the original Persona 4, but instead a rhythm game which uses the same characters and some of the music. Similar to the other Persona 4 spinoff, Persona 4 Arena (and Arena Ultimax), there's a heavier story focus in Dancing All Night than rhythm games usually have so that the games can tie into the original.
As I can't read or speak Japanese, I can't comment very much on the story itself. The story is like a visual novel in it's own mode in the game but I mostly just skipped through the mode for the unlocks it provided. There are some dialogue choices throughout the story but I didn't notice any major changes from them. Based on the visuals, I believe the story is a standalone story as it contains some new characters and seemingly presents a new mystery for the members of the Persona 4 Investigation Team to puzzle out.
Periodically throughout the story there are gameplay sections where the characters have to dance to a song for reasons I can only speculate on. These parts play like a pretty normal rhythm game where the notes scroll towards an action line and the player has to hit the correct button at the correct time. The one change to the usual rhythm game formula is that instead of a single line of notes, like Rock Band, the notes radiate outward in a circle toward the sides of the screen; similar to the Xonic game I played at E3. There are also scratch notes, which aren't tied to a button but instead are hit by flicking the analog stick in any direction (similar to Hatsune Miku: Project Diva). The game can also be played using just the touchscreen by tapping the notes on screen and rubbing on the screen for the flick notes.
The rhythm gameplay is pretty solid for a game of this type and everything feels proper which is always important for a rhythm game. The big change from most other rhythm games, keeping track of notes on two sides of the screen, does game some getting used to. The only thing is about the gameplay is that it felt a little bit too easy to me. The story mode only lets the player pick Easy or Normal difficulty, neither of which offer much of a challenge, but even the Hard and All Night difficulties that are available in Free Dance mode (All Night has to be unlocked though) weren't that difficult. I felt like they could have used the game's systems a little more to add some flair and difficulty but most of the note charts seem to follow fairly simple rhythms in the song. This does mean that those coming from the RPG without much rhythm game experience should be able to grasp the game pretty quickly.
Since the game, though easy, played well, the bigger problem I had with the game was the song list. Not the songs themselves, those are all pretty good; I really like the music in the Persona series and this game is no exception. What's bad about the song list is how small it seems. There are 27 songs in the game, which is already smaller than most rhythm games, and many of the songs are in the game twice: once as a normal version and once as a remix version. The remixes are generally very different from the normal version but they do use the normal version as a base so it's hard for me to consider them completely new. There are some DLC songs on the PlayStation Network, both free and paid, which bring in more songs from the RPG, as well as some songs from the Persona 4 anime.
On the plus side, the game is beautiful to look at. The Persona 4 cast has never looked better and the game has a full array of unlockable costumes, many of which harken back to moments in the original game. The main dancer is set for each song but the partner can be picked (once unlocked) so that the character that comes in during sections of the song is different. The dances are fun to watch as well, and there's even a mode that removes all the gameplay so the player can watch the dances.
For those thinking of importing, the game is confirmed for an English release later this year. However, for anyone who doesn't want to wait for that, the Japanese version is easily playable without much Japanese knowledge as many of the menus are already in English. The story mode is the main part that's not translated and a few of the menus for song modifiers or purchasing costumes might take some guess and check (or googling). Atlus USA has said that the game will be dubbed for the English release, which will change the voices in story mode as well as some of the callouts during songs, however the songs themselves will not be changed. None of the songs are actually sung by the characters though, and most are already sung in English, so it's not surprising that Atlus isn't going to change the music.
All in all, I'd say that Persona 4 Dancing All Night is a Midnight Channel is worth tuning in for. Fans of the RPG will get the most mileage out of the story and characters, I'm sure, but general rhythm game fans should be able to enjoy the solid, if a little easy, rhythm components. A great, but small, song list and a decent array of unlockables help round out Persona 4's excellent foray into the genre of music games.
Some gameplay I recorded:

- HASPA Filiale Niendorf
HASPA opens Branch of the Future in Niendorf!
In an interview: Darko Mavrak, Branch Manager
The Hamburg savings bank (Hamburger Sparkasse, short Haspa) opened its first "Branch of the Future" in Moorflagen 1, Niendorf, on 30th June 2017. The new branch concept is piloted and tested there first, before there will be a changeover of all branches until 2020. For, even in the digital age, the regional market leader puts the accent on modern branches as drivers of growth. Haspa has decided to go for an open and friendly design of the branch. In line with the urban district, the rooms have been individually equipped. Colours, materials and furniture provide employees and customers with a feel-well atmosphere.
In an interview with PALMBERG, Branch Manager Darko Mavrak takes a look at the "Branch of the Future".
Question: How does the ambience change the work of the bank staff?
Darko Mavrak: Above all, we have observed that the customers feel very comfortable in our new rooms. And, of course, the ambience helps to create a very special team atmosphere.
Question: For some time, you have been working with the electrically adjustable sit/stand desks of the Palmberg brand. What role does the topic of 'health of employees' play at HASPA?
Darko Mavrak: I notice that my colleagues often make use of the height adjustment. The change of working positions is practised by all client advisors. To optimise the working conditions for every employee, our bank has been maintaining a comprehensive health management for many years.
Question: The austere counter-architecture of a traditional bank branch was replaced by an open design concept here in Hamburg-Niendorf. Is there no longer anything separating between customers and advisors?
Darko Mavrak: Strong customer ties are important for us. We want to establish a good relationship with our neighbours. We want to be good hosts for the people here in Hamburg-Niendorf. That doesn't work with barriers.
Question: Do you have any places of retreat for intensive conversations despite the open space design?
Darko Mavrak: Yes. We do have meeting rooms where we can close the door and there are also half-open zones, such as our 'Lounge Niendorf'. The customer can choose the place and the kind of meeting. But many people use for their transfers the central, inviting neighbourhood table. You can also take your time there to study the offers of our bank.
Question: What do your customers say about the Branch of the Future?
Darko Mavrak (smiling): Spontaneously, there are words like 'cosy corner' and 'living-room'. But we notice that local information about the district is of great interest. Various events take place here, for example, readings, information evenings on real estate security or tenant information. Our bank is becoming the centre of a lively Niendorf and contributes to networking within the district.
Question: Were there any colleagues who applied for a job especially in this branch?
Darko Mavrak: No, there weren't. The team stayed together. The employees were well prepared for the 'Branch of the Future' by additional training measures.
Mr Mavrak, many thanks for the interview.

Someone asked me recently a good question: "How is a person's righteous life is portrayed and or protected with the Word of God?"
For me, there are two cap-stone statements in the Word of God that encapsulate what God sets as the standard of righteousness. Psalm 1 and Mark 12: 29-32 seems to be two of most concise statements in the Bible for understanding for what God sees as being righteous. What men make up as being righteous is just that … what men make up. It has no bearing on the real eternal standard that can only be set by our Creator. Jesus said at one point in His ministry to some religious leaders "You leave the commandment of God and hold to the tradition of men." [Mark 7:8] How much time we spend reading and studying the Bible, how much we volunteer in the church, whether we lead a home group or not, how much we pray or how much we give; these are all gauges set by people to judge other people and make ourselves feel better or more important or more righteous.
To me the question is never "how much" religious works am I doing but rather "how engaged" am I with Jesus. Is my focus on the expectations of Jesus or religious people?
According to Psalm 1 there are only two ways of living: the way of the righteous and the way of the wicked. God makes it clear throughout the Scriptures that it is the distinctness of God's Word is to bring to life in the believer righteous as God expects. Two great principles are revealed: (1) the importance and absolute focus on the Scripture, and (2) the necessity for our character to be changed, our stability to be founded on God's Word; it is all about who makes the Scriptures the core of our lives.
Our lives reflect either negatively or positively how we respond to God, our spouses, our children, our co-workers and our neighbors. Check out the use of stark contrasts. The writer of this Psalm emphasizes by contrast, what we ought not to be doing to what the godly [righteous] do. There are only two ways of living. We can live stable lives and bless others or we can live unstably and face judgment for our choice. The choices we make each and every day reflect either negatively or positively our character and destiny.
There is lots of wisdom to be gained in listening to what God tells us. Psalm 1 declares in just a few words some of the most basic but profound truths about the standard of righteous as set by God. How do you measure up?

One of the fun things about living in relatively close proximity to the Korean Cultural Center of Los Angeles (see link to the right) is that I can skip over there for their free movies on occasion.
Today's movie, shown for some odd reason at 3pm, was The Way Home (집으로*). If you're looking for something blatant where evil characters learn the error of their ways and make amends in very obvious ways, this isn't it. It was all very understated and sweet. Since the grandmother (the second most important character in the story) is mute, a lot of the film takes place without dialogue**, which I think makes it a more powerful film. I've noticed before that Korean filmmakers in general seem to be better at pure cinema than American filmmakers. Film being a visual medium, I say more power to the folks who can give us in a facial expression what others would take a whole conversation to express.
Anyway, The Way Home gets a recommend from me. My only complaint, which has nothing to do with the film, is that the audience at KCC always seems to leave their cell phones on, and naturally these cell phones ring throughout the film. Turn 'em off, folks. It ain't that difficult. Maybe it's a Korean cultural thing?
*Someday I will learn to type Korean at a reasonable speed.
**Why on earth is the spell checker trying to tell me I spelled "dialogue" wrong? Hello, that's how it's spelled. I'll have none of these "dialog" innovations.

As prayed in my diary when I got home:
Out on the beach, searching for You, my Lord. Hungry, thirsty for You.
Apologetic repentance for not telling the world.
Then you are there. Not in the sun; not in the drift wood; not in the clouds, but in a Chinese man's face. He does not know You, but he saw You.
And where did he see you? In my face! He said so.
Jesus, You told him to say so. You, my faithful God, who never seizes to pamper me whenever I lose my worth. This 45 year old man on holiday from China, with his broken English said to me that he saw the sun in my face and that I had made him happy. He beamed all over.
I told him, my Lord and my God, that it is You he is seeing. I told him he can have the same sun in China and wherever he is. God opens our eyes to see the sun everywhere. I told him to go and buy a Chinese Bible and read it. I told him that as he reads, God will fill him with the Son.
I was wearing my bright red 'I LOVE JESUS' cap.
Your name, Jesus, was displayed on my 'forehead', clear and bright.
While the sun was parading its glory in all angles I was talking to a gentleman from China. He saw me first; manoeuvring my body and camera into making a piece of driftwood my soul purpose in life. Only when I clawed my way out of the sand up the sand bank did I see him. 45 years old and on holiday in SA.
We did well, exchanging life messages with His English and my hearing. Every day is a new gift from God. A present to open. He understood. Driftwood buried yesterday, opened today. Wood that shimmers in the sun and takes on as many faces as you want to see.
He was leaving for Cape Town the next morning; wanted to know if Cape Town was more beautiful than here (Durban by the sea J).
Me: Wherever you heart is, is more beautiful. With God in you all places are beautiful.
Him: In China we work hard. Work, work, work to support my family. My heart is hard (he made a fist).
Your heart is beautiful. I see the sun in your face. (He point with his finger to the sun and then to my face.)
Today you make me very happy to see you. I happy all over.

Why do onions make us cry?
So who does not know that familiar feeling: tingly, stinging eyes and then the tears.
So Why would the onion, one of the key ingredient in many of our meals, cause us so much discomfort?
With plants and animals , life is about survival and reproduction and Onions are no exception. To stop predators from eating the bulbs, onions release some volatile chemicals that cause our eyes to well up.
Onions are perennial plants and in the first year of their life cycle, they form a bulb that acts as an energy store. The following year, the plant produces the flower and the seeds which will allow it to reproduce
Just recently Scientists have identified how the enzyme responsible for this process works.
Tear factor
The chemical at the heart of our tears is called propanethial S-oxide, which is also known as lachrymatory factor (LF). The anatomical term for our tear glands is "lacrimal glands," and LF is the chemical that causes tears.
There are three other molecules with similar tear-inducing properties and they are all produced by plants.
Marcin Golczak, Ph.D. – an assistant professor in the Department of Pharmacology at Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland, OH – col has recently discovered the structure of the enzyme that produces LF in onions: lachrymatory factor synthase (LF synthase).
So what happens then?
When we start chopping, the cells inside the onion are broken up. When this happens an enzyme called allinase is released and this produces the chemicals that are subsequently broken down into flavor molecules. These give onions their characteristic taste.
Some of the chemicals involved in this reaction are turned into LF by LF synthase. When LF comes into contact with the front of the eye, or the cornea, nerve endings located here signal to the brain that an irritant has arrived on the scene. This, in turn, leads to signaling back from the brain to the tear glands.
Tears and blinking are subsequently initiated to remove the pesky irritant from the cornea.
The elusive enzyme
Understanding the structure and function of enzymes is a complex science. Although LF synthase was identified as early as 2002, until now, no one has been able to show how it actually works.
Harnessing health benefits
Onions have a wealth of health benefits. Studies suggest a link between the chemicals in onions and the inhibition of cancer growth, as well as improvement of sleep and mood.
As they are also a very good source of dietary vitamin C, which is a building block of collagen, onions may well play a role in hair and skin health.
Now to save us from the discomfort of tears, two groups of scientists have been working on producing tear-free onions….you read right.
One of these new onions has been shown to inhibit platelet aggregation, which is associated with cardiovascular disease.
The next time you are getting your chopping board ready to chop up an onion think the amazing biochemical processes that will unfold in front of your teary eyes.
So what is the deal with superfoods anyway?
……..good skin, better sleep, more energy, better memory and mental health, protection from cancer and heart disease, longer life, natural weight loss and less aches and pains.

Program/Project Name #2: Minecraft Entrepreneurial Farming Challenge
Program Timeline: July 2017 to November 2017
Program/Project Summary: The Minecraft Farming Challenge was created to deliver lessons about decision making, problem solving, and prioritization of goals, record keeping and most importantly to learn how to navigate real world business decisions. The Minecraft Farming Challenge world includes in-game currency, multiple non-player character (NPC) vendors, the chance to decide which land plot is best for farming, and educational opportunities. Students will have to decide if they wish to take out an in-game loan to assist them in meeting their goals. The goal is to become the most successful Minecraft Farmer within the Minecraft Farming world by accumulating (in-game currency) net worth.
How can others get involved: Minecraft is learning while playing. While in "survival" mode Minecraft players are forced to creatively design solutions to the challenges presented in the game. At the heart of Minecraft is the ability to remain productive and motivated despite obstacles or temporary failures. Equipped with this skill called tenacity, students can persist through difficulties and reach their goals no matter what the world throws at them.

Program/ Project Name: LAUNCH Memphis
Program/Project Summary: The LAUNCH Memphis program, run by Advance Memphis, has a few elements. The primary piece of the program is to educate and support aspiring entrepreneurs in the 38126 zip code in South Memphis, which is a neighborhood marred by a historical lack of resources and access to opportunity. Twice a year, Advance Memphis runs a LAUNCH Class, in which we go through the Co.Starters urban curriculum with people who have a business idea that they want to put into action. We provide long-term wraparound support to graduates of the LAUNCH Class, in the form of mentorship, volunteer service providers, educational opportunities, etc. We also run the LAUNCH Intensive, which is a business incubator program, twice a year. One graduate is selected for each session of the LAUNCH Intensive to receive a small capital grant, and access to more focused mentorship and consulting services.
How can others get involved: People can get involved with LAUNCH Memphis in a variety of creative ways. Most tangibly, those who have experience and skills in business can come alongside graduates and create long-term mentoring relationships, or share their knowledge by guest-speaking in a class. They can also provide services to graduates pro bono, or at discounted rates. More simply, anybody can be an encouragement to a graduate by creating a relationship and helping with simple projects such as creating marketing material. Additionally, people can support the program by choosing to patronize/contract local LAUNCH businesses.

"Brain porn" is a term given to the simplistic (and reductionist) thinking that leads to attempts to use neuroscience (especially brain-scanning technologies) to explain the way the human brain works. This recent suite of articles discusses neuroscience, neuroscientists and the complexity involved in describing the human brain.
1. Let's kick things off with a swift kick to the idea that neuroscience can explain nearly everything, including voting for the Republicans (Quart's example in this first article) and even playing poker (as Blum mentions in article 5 below).
Neuroscience: under attack by Alissa Quart at The New York Times
2. This piece runs through some of the issues around drawing too many conclusions from brain imaging. I will paste a quotation from this article below because it is relevant to article number three in this selection:
"Scientists are also still struggling to construct theories about how arrays of individual neurons relate complex behaviors, even in principle. Neuroscience has yet find its Newton, let alone its Einstein."
Neuroscience fiction by Gary Marcus at The New Yorker
3. This article picks up on the theme of a neuroscience equivalent for Newton.
Does Neuroscience need a Newton? by Scicurious at Scientific American blogs
4. If you want a great run-down of some neuroscience history along with the Newton-like nominees for neuroscience, read this piece.
Nominees for the Newton of neuroscience by Zen Faulkes at NeuroDojo
5. As you can tell from the title of this piece, we finish with a journalistic angle to the "brain porn" debate.
Winter of discontent: Is the hot affair between neuroscience and science journalism cooling down? by Deborah Blum at Knight Science Journalism at MIT

Spicy Korean chicken is the ultimate in Asian comfort food. Sweet, spicy and savoury flavours make them one of the most moreish dishes which is perfect for a quiet night in or a party with friends. Just be prepared for them to go down a storm so make more than one batch! Allow a little time for the chicken to marinade in the fridge before you need them so the flavours have time to infuse. The recipe can easily be multiplied depending on how many guests you are feeding and can be used for a whole range of chicken pieces from drumsticks to thighs to wings so get cooking!
Ingredients- makes 12 drumsticks
12 chicken drumsticks
60ml dark soy sauce
3 tbsp runny honey
2 tbsp rice wine vinegar
2 tbsp gochujang
1. Crack on with the marinade in advance by simply combining the soy, honey, rice wine vinegar and gochujang. Simple! Place in a bowl or in a zip lock freezer bag along with the chicken pieces and make sure they are well coated. Chill in the fridge until you need them. A couple of hours is good but overnight is even better if time allows.
2. When you are ready to cook them, they will take around 20-25 minutes in the oven on 200c/ 180 fan. Make sure the chicken is cooked through and the juices should run clear when it is ready. Reserve the marinade and place in a small pan on the hob and gently heat until it begins to thicken. When it is ready brush the chicken drumsticks with the thickened sauce on each side before giving one last minute in the oven. You can also finish them off with a sprinkle of toasted sesame seeds if you like. The marinade makes the chicken deliciously sticky and irresistible. That's all there is to it!
Spicy Korean chicken drumsticks- grab a pile of napkins and dive in!

Manchester-based brewer JW Lees 190th Anniversary garden, which featured a number of fabrications from Barnshaws, won the 'Best Show Garden' award.
The theme of garden was 'From Hop to Glass' and combined grasses and powder-coated metal sheets in a circular arrangement to represent the company's 190th anniversary and the brewing industry in general.
The planting aimed to embody the head of a pint of beer, with a curved timber bench mirroring the comfortable layout of a bar.
A 'lazy river' encompassed the garden, providing a water feature. This section owed its existence to the fabrication expertise of Barnshaws, who fabricated the river channel.
Barnshaws had to deliver 14 x 80mm x 6mm steel channels, curved to suit the circular perimeter of the garden. The design also included seven 200mm x 6mm washer segments, which were sourced from a Barnshaw's profiling company.
Barnshaws' Manchester Regional Director Wayne Salkeld said: "Metal bending offers huge opportunities to designers, and we were very excited to work on this particular element of the garden.
"We've completed fabrication jobs for RHS show gardens before, but to see this recognition from gardening experts shows how far structural metal experience can promote artistic flair."

Practicing physicians are seeing an ever-increasing list of protocols and pathways coming their way. These arrive in several forms -- order sets for medications, guidelines on how to proceed for various conditions, when to do this, when to do that, and when not to do either one. They generally are the product of various committees trying to synthesize what these days we call "best practices." I have no doubt these aids are useful. They can focus the mind, streamline care, and reduce medical costs. They also have the potential to improve care on average.
Checklists, one form of the phenomenon, have been shown to make care safer for several things. The model is simple, following what airline pilots do. If you've ever glanced to your left as you filed onto an airplane, you've seen the pilots methodically going over a series of lists as they prepare for takeoff. Nothing is assumed to be correct and functional until it's been checked. The practice of anesthesiology, in particular, has been made safer by the concept; everything is checked and confirmed to be ready and in place. Nowadays, we even make sure we have the correct patient by checking the identification band on the person's wrist. Surgeons verify and mark in advance the spot where they're going to cut. A popular recent book by Atul Gawande is all about medical checklists.
Treatment pathways are not as clear-cut as checklists. We have several of them in the PICU for asthma and bronchiolitis, for example. My colleagues in adult practice have many more.
There is, of course, an obvious danger in these things. Although they can help streamline and standardize care according to best practices, medicine cannot be practiced well strictly using cookbook lists -- every patient differs, sometimes by a lot. The longer I practice, now for over 35 years, the more I appreciate this fact.
What set me thinking about all this was the publication in the New England Journal of Medicine of an article analyzing the effect of sepsis pathways on patient outcomes in septic shock. Essentially, it's a cascade of complications usually initiated by invading bacteria. Sepsis pathways have become a big thing. They have done some good, I think, by focusing on doing the few things we know help early in the disorder. Mainly, they make us think of possible sepsis before it's obvious, and early treatment improves outcomes. But this careful analysis showed good clinical judgment was just as good as predetermined cookbook measures on a sepsis pathway list. Not surprisingly, strict use of the cookbook bundle was much more costly than were tests and treatments driven by experienced judgment. I'm not surprised at all.
I think pathways are particularly helpful for young physicians and residents. Experience is a great teacher, but all of us have to start somewhere. Pathways and guidelines jump start learning, remind us of what's known, and focus our minds on what to do. But a pathway in the hands of someone who doesn't know enough is dangerous, providing confidence where there should be a measure of anxiety.

Bought some after trying distillery - I find the standard Penderyn a little too bland, as my tastes run to the more extreme end of peaty highland/island malts.This whiskey blew me away. It has the most intriguing mix of that it gets from maturing in used Laphroig casks (at least in bottling I bought, may vary I would guess) of peat flavour mixed with the subtlety and charm of the softer Welsh malt. It's lighter and easier on the palate than the fiercer scots peated offerings, but loses (IMO) little for that in terms of flavours, rather, the more gentle delivery of this whiskey gives a peated malt that makes for an ideal summer dram. One to savour in the garden as the summer sun sets.
17th December 2016
For people who search balanced whisky between hint of smoke and fresh fruit. Here the peat comes from the cask and not from the malt.
18th May 2016
a week after first opening and the cloying marzipan sweetness spoiling this dram has gone, leaving a deliciously sour and, dare I say it - rusty malt reminiscent of the excellent Kilchoman Machir Bay releases. Only downside to the changes in the developing bottle is that the nose is much less interesting.
21st September 2015
Like a less crap Connemara. Nose of honey, vanilla, marzipan, cake icing, toffee. Warm palate, sweet peat and a hint of chili. Could do with some saltiness or more medicinal character to balance it out. Nice long finish, not much develops though. Not bad, though I think peat fans will be disappointed. A good pre-dinner malt.
15th September 2015
This is a beautifully balanced and refreshing single malt. It's peated but not in the usual sense in that the peat influence comes from the use of Laphroiag Quarter Casks for maturation as opposed to peated malt. They also use Buffalo Trace Bourbon casks the influence of which is also very obvious. This makes for a subtly complex single malt with cask influence from two of the very best whiskies. I've tried all the Penderyn range and this is the one that surprised me the most. I thought it'd be a pale imitation of the peated style but having tasted it alongside Ardbeg 10 and Lagavulin 16 it holds it's own whilst only having peat levels of 5ppm as opposed to the 50ppm that many Islays have. On the nose there's a grassy, summer fruits and vanilla peat smoke combo and on the palate a refreshing array of vanilla, green fruits and clear savoury edge and gloriously deft peat. the finish is sublime and not too hot or overpowering. Overall a fantastic single malt from the fledgling Welsh distillery.
26th June 2015
if you're expecting something as intense as Laphraoig (whose barrels are used to finish this whisky) then you'll be disappointed. however, if you think Bowmore or Bunnahabhain crossed with an Irish single malt then you'll love Penderyn Peated.
7th September 2014
A friend brought back a bottle from Wales for me. I love a peaty whisky, and the subtle tease of peat was delightful and in had a nice warm finish. I look forward to trying this whisky in about five years when it crosses the 10yo barrier.
7th June 2014
I love this sublime smokey whisky. It is not especially smooth and I know it isn't to everyone's taste but it is very serious after dinner fiery and deliciously musky pipe smoke flavour. Scrummy!
6th June 2014
I went to the distillery to taste this and was very disappointed with it. I did not find it complex at all but could taste only very strong oak which was ok only. I'm afraid I couldn't detect any peat at all not surprising as the only exposure to peat comes from being finished in casks that had previously held a peated whisky. It's a shame and far too expensive. Sorry I really wanted it to work!
24th April 2014
A really slightly peated whisky with a strong dominant taste of wood

Chapter 17
I do not own DC Universe or Twilight. Read and then review. Thank you.
Bella's moaned out in her sleep. What she assumed to be one hell of a sex dream, turned out to be very real. She opened her eyes still feeling the sensation below. That's when she realized Bruce had his head between her legs. His hands had them spread apart and he was tonguing her clit. Her eyes widened with total surprise and she bit into her pillow. His hold got firmer as she began to squirm a bit. A slight growl escaped his mouth as he got even more into it. Her fingers ran through his dark locks of hair as she began this humping motion against his tongue. Bruce moaned out in satisfaction as she began to climax. Bella sucked back a breath as he licked up her sap.
Bruce kept going not getting enough of her taste. He reached down and began to stroke himself as he continued.
"Bruce please…" She hinted and pulled at his hair.
That smirk formed along his lips. Still he didn't break. He kept up the torturous, yet wonderful lapping.
He took his entire tongue along her sex keeping with this slow stride. He was merely waiting for it. Bella gritted her teeth.
"Fuck me, please." She cried out not sure how much more teasing she could handle.
Bruce managed to swiftly flip her over to all fours. His cock twitched at the sight, even more so when he placed his fingers inside. They glided in as though he were fingering wet silk. She arched back as though she were in heat. Bruce inched his way inside. He throbbed and ached for release. He wasn't ready to be done however. She hadn't begged near enough. Bella became frustrated as he kept up this sluggish but hard pace.
"Tell me what you want." He seductively growled out.
Her pussy constricted even more and she became wetter.
"Beg for it!" He demanded and popped her on the rear.
"I need it harder Bruce please."
"Fuck…" He grunted out with damn near disappointment. He wanted to go for hours on end. He couldn't seem to get enough of her begging. Bruce was beginning to wonder if something was wrong with him. He'd never been like this with any other woman. Hell if he was they'd probably think he was nuts and steer clear of him. With Bella he felt he could express himself more and not just in a sexual nature. Everything about her made him feel more at ease. CEO by day and Batman at night… left Bruce with severe pint up frustrations. He often used sex to rid of those.
He pulled out quickly and shot all over her ass. Afterword he pressed himself against her and propped her up against him. Bruce kissed along her neck and shoulders. His hands ran along her breasts. Once they traveled down to her waist he merely held her.
They lay back down for a few minutes. Bella softly giggled as Bruce buried his face between her breasts Bella wrapped her arms around his head as he did this.
"Hmmm… I wouldn't mind being suffocated this way." He mumbled against them.
The phone rang and Bruce sighed as he rolled over and answered. Bella was kissing along his bare chest as his fingers ran through her long locks.
"I'll be right down Alfred."
Once he hung up he pecked Bella on the lips.
"I have an emergency meeting."
Bruce chuckled as she puckered out her bottom lip with disappointment.
"I'll make it up to you? How about we skip training tonight and I take you out instead? We can celebrate our engagement."
Her smile returns and he nods.
"I better hurry."
Bella nods as Bruce rushes to the shower.
Before showering herself, Bella decided to hit the gym for a little bit. She was able to do some punches and other things, just no heavy lifting. Bella was anxious to get her body back up to par. After Bruce was dressed and ready to go he peeked into the gym before leaving. Bella was already covered in sweat and on her third set of punches.
"Don't push yourself too hard." She heard him sternly state at the doorway.
She saluted him and he smirked.
"I mean it Bella. Just the minimum nothing too extravagant; your body still needs sometime."
At this he takes off and heads onto Wayne Enterprises. Bella put on her headphones and went back to her usual workout. When she was almost done she lifted her eyes towards Alfred. Behind him was Harvey Dent. Bella sighed and took down her headphones. They hung down her sweat covered black sports bra.
"Warning next time Alfred?" She said in a playful tone.
Alfred smiled and did a slight bow.
"I do apologize, madam."
Bella nodded and began to unwrap her hands. She wiped the sweat from her face and neck with a towel. After she downed an entire bottle of water she looked to Harvey.
"So what brings you here?"
"An apology."
"Apology huh?"
He nods and looks around the room. He leans against the doorway with his arms folded about his chest.
"I must admit, quite an impressive place you and Mr. Wayne have set up."
"If that's an apology you're going to make a horrible mayor."
"Are you admitting I have a chance of winning?"
"Are you still apologizing?"
Harvey smirks.
"Very well, Ms. Gordon. I'd like to sincerely apologize for my horrible behavior and cruel assumptions. Not only was it not very professional of me. But I made a judgment call based of the media alone instead of hashing it out with you the proper way beforehand."
Bella claps.
"That was very good Mr. Dent. Perhaps you'll get a silver star today instead of bronze."
"Not enough to earn gold?"
"There's only one man that earns gold in my book."
Harvey chuckles.
"I hear Mr. Edward Cullen has been released on parole until the hearing."
Bella shrugs but doesn't comment.
"You should know that he no longer works for me. I fired him."
"Tell me Mr. Dent who were you originally going to fire first?"
He lets out an apprehensive laugh. Bella smiles and nods her head.
"Once again, why are you here?"
"Like I said I came to apologize."
"Which you've done, nevertheless you're still here."
"A to the point type of woman I see."
Bella nods.
"Alright, I admit I'm here to grovel, Ms. Gordon. I received the files you looked over and read through your notes. You're brilliant and it would be a shame if I couldn't somehow talk you into coming back to work for me."
"Then I'm sorry to say it's a shame."
"Come now Ms. Gordon. I could really use you."
"That maybe… But it's people like you I should steer clear from. I don't have much patience for two faced politicians."
"So my phone call really hit a nerve…"
Bella shakes her head and heads out of the gym. She motions for Harvey to follow her. She heads into Bruce's upstairs office.
"You see Mr. Dent I do my homework. When I mentioned you were two faced, it actually had nothing to do with our little disagreement."
She tosses a file at his feet. He narrows his eyes and bends down to pick it up.
He then opens it up and begins to skim through the files. His jaw tightly clenched.
"This is false of course."
"Is it? Because, it looks as though your campaign money is coming from one of Gotham's biggest mob bosses. I'd no idea you liked to get your hands dirty Mr. Dent. I suppose it's true what they say."
"And what would that be?" He says through gritted teeth.
"It's a man eat man world. Every man for himself… Well Mr. Dent, it's men like you that make this city a much darker place to live. I thought Mr. Cobblepot sitting you up the way he did was downright dirty. But you however… yours I do believe takes the cake!"
She shakes her head.
"I don't believe it is."
"You're going to have to come up with a lot more proof than this! This is nothing, but lies! I WILL NOT HAVE MY NAME SLANDERED IN SUCH A WAY! NOT THIS CLOSE TO ELECTION TIME!"
Bella nods.
"I do believe our time is up. Do have a good day Mr. Dent and I assure you I will gather the information that is needed. So if I were you I'd cross my fingers and keep my nose clean for the next couple months. Alfred, please escort Mr. Dent out."
"Yes, madam."
"Thank you."
As soon as Harvey left Bella showered and got ready for the hearing. All it took was the judge and jury seeing the footage of what took place that day. Edward didn't stand a chance. The judge more or less hinted that there would only be the need for one more trial. Edward's father was simple minded enough to not even hire a lawyer he believed he could proof his son's innocence on his own. That only hurt his chances even more so.
Bella ran a few errands in town and had lunch with Sara and Jim. Afterword she headed back to the manor. Bella then got ready for her and Bruce's date. Bella waited and waited. She even called him a couple times concerned. Two more hours passed when she decided to check and see if the Batman suit was still in the cave. She wondered if he possibly had to go out on a call. All of his stuff however was intact. Bella decided to wait in the living room, where she eventually fell asleep. Bruce didn't return until that afternoon.
Bella heard the front door open and hopped to her feet. Bruce nodded towards her as he entered the manor. She rushed over to him and wrapped her arms around him.
"Oh thank god." She kissed him but something felt off and different. She checked him over.
"What happened to you?"
He smiled and ran his hands along her ass.
"Hmmm… I was out."
He nodded whilst running a hand along her breast.
"What do you mean out?"
He shrugs and loosens his tie. He lifted her shirt and gawked at her breasts.
"Damn those are nice." Bella sighed and lowered her shirt back down.
Bruce pressed her up against the door and began kissing her. Something wasn't right she just couldn't peg what it was. He seemed different somehow. He even tasted, smelled, and felt different. Bella narrowed her eyes at the red lipstick marks on his neck and the collar of his shirt.
"Um Bruce?"
Bella leaned over and took a whiff. He smelled like cigarettes, cheap perfume, and sex.
"Where the hell were you Bruce? What the fuck is going on?!"
He chuckles and starts to unbuckle his belt. Bella shoved him off her.
"Did you sleep with someone last night?!"
He shrugged and pressed his lips together. He held up two fingers.
"What's that supposed to mean?"
"That there is plenty of me to go around!"
"Excuse me? Are you admitting you're fucking around on me?!"
"Someone's being a nag. It's not like we're married."
He narrows his eyes and looks upon the ring on her finger.
"Huh, well shit…"
"We were supposed to celebrate our engagement last night. But apparently you had other plans! WHAT THE FUCK BRUCE?! THIS DOESN'T EVEN SOUND LIKE YOU!"
"Then maybe you didn't know me as well as you thought."
"I guess you're right. You're just like the rest of them!"
"Relax, it was just the one night. You know before we tie the knot. You don't own me."
"Unbelievable! And what if I went and pulled something like this?!"
She takes the ring off and throws it at him. Alfred had just entered the room at this point.
"Quit being so overly dramatic!" Bruce shouts.
Her jaw dropped as he backhanded her.
"Put the fucking ring back on and grow the fuck up! It was just sex!"
Alfred goes to intervene with anger in his eyes. Bella held up a hand towards Alfred. Bruce forced the ring back onto her finger. At this he headed upstairs. Alfred immediately rushed over checking on Bella.
"Watch what you say and do around him Alfred, he's not himself…" She hints looking towards the stairs.
Bella shook her head as she gazed upon the monitor in the cave. Bruce had a party currently going on in the manor. A party in which included some of the Playboy mansion girls and a few other questionable characters. She zoomed in on Bruce's face he spent the entire time laughing, smiling, and mingling. Bella leaned back in the chair and rubbed her face with frustration.
She looked back to her engagement ring and then the Batman suit. Bella knew she couldn't hide out for much longer without raising suspicion. She kept a live feed however of everything going on in the manor. She straightened out her dress and returned to the manor.
"Ah, and there she is!"
She heard Bruce call out over the guests. A blonde was currently in his lap. He was running a hand along the slope of her back. He gently removed the woman from his lap and reached out for Bella. She reluctantly took his hand and sat upon his lap. Bella tried to keep from recoiling as he kissed along her bare shoulders.
"Shall we take this upstairs?" He whispered as he had a hard on digging into her.
"Not really in the mood at the moment."
He chuckles.
"Hmmm… then it seems I have no use for you." He says in a harsh and cold tone.
Bella shakes her head and rises from his lap. He clears his throat and points directly upon her.
"And I say there she is!"
Everyone now looked upon them as his voice rose above everyone else's even the music the pianist was playing.
Bella swallowed back as Bruce winked upon her. Bruce reaches for a bottle of champagne he begins to chug it.
"The one that ripped my heart out! And she says… to me. Did you sleep with someone else?"
He comes to a stand and tilts his head about. He waves the bottle about in the air.
"Well yes… yes I did. After all it's not like you haven't been screwing around on me!"
His guests gasp out in disbelief. He laughs and waves his finger upon Bella.
"In fact I'm calling off this whole engagement thing. Alfred please, remove Ms. Gordon from the premises. She's not to return… EVER!"
Bella's heart sank to the pit of her stomach. Alfred made his way over and Bella covered her face as he led her out of the manor. Alfred personally called her a cab. Before she got in he whispered directly upon her.
"Be patient, lay low. I will come for you. I've already set you up a hotel room."
She nodded and Alfred waved upon her as the driver took off.
Bella paced the hotel room. Alfred must've foreseen this coming as well. He'd already had her things packed and they were already in the room. She looked out the window of the hotel.
"Where are you Bruce?"
She pinched her eyes shut as hot tears began to form. She was trying to stay brave for his sake, but it wasn't easy. Deep down she had to believe he was alive and somewhere out there.
As promised Alfred showed up to the hotel after a couple more days. The longest most agonizing two days of Bella's life. Each minute that passed by she feared the worst. They began to make plans from there. The first agenda, keep the imposter from finding out the truth behind Bruce and Bella's secret. Second, find a way to get Bella back into the manor without the imposter knowing of her whereabouts. The only place they could come up with was the cave. Alfred and Bella began to set up ideas for that. She needed access to the cave in order to find the real Bruce Wayne. She hadn't a clue where to even begin. And in order to find Bruce? That meant Batgirl was going to have to make her debut. From there Alfred and Bella parted ways, they kept everything very discreet and under the table.
Bella called to her uncle and let him in on what she could without giving too much away. She also made it clear that neither of them needed to come by the manor. The media was also soaking up the newest lies and gossip about Bella Gordon and Bruce Wayne's horrible spilt, making this whole discreet ordeal even harder. Bella couldn't go anywhere without some sort of photographer or interviewer following her around. So she decided to take things one step further. She cut her hair leaving it just above her shoulders and dyed her hair blonde. She got new clothes and shades. She began to use cash instead of her credit cards. She kept a very low profile, once she felt comfortable in the sense that she wasn't being followed. Bella made her way to the back entrance of the cave, where she would live for the remainder, until she found Bruce.
From there she kept tabs on the imposter by watching the monitors. Alfred let her know whatever he could when he could. Bella began her own investigation determined to find Bruce at all cost.
Bella looked to the Batgirl suit in thought as the imposter was throwing yet another party. He was spending Bruce's money, ruining his and Bella's name and relationship, and running Wayne Enterprise to the ground. He was using Bruce Wayne's fame to get whatever he wanted.
Bella suited up for the first time since her surgery. She hopped on her chopper and began her search.
After hours of searching throughout Gotham and getting absolutely nowhere, Batgirl began to think of other options. The only one that even came to mind? Poison Ivy… Which meant she was going to have to pay her a visit in Arkham Asylum. Batgirl gritted her teeth in thought. She hated that place it gave her the creeps, but if it got her one step closer to Bruce's whereabouts…
"Tell me bats are you a Monty Python fan?!"
Batgirl turns to the direction the voice was coming from. She froze realizing who it was.
"I do believe you found two coconuts! HAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!"
She swallowed back rather nervously. She'd never been this close to him before.
"Hmmm… Milk certainly does you a body good bats. What I wouldn't give…"
Joker comes up to the bars eyeing her.
"How come you never looked this sexy for me bats?! Why it's hardly fair! HAHA! OHH IT'S HARDLY FAIR!" He grips the bars and starts this humping motion.
Batgirl rolled her eyes and kept walking. One of the guards banged his baton on his cell.
"Shut it JOKER! YOU FREAK!"
"Now that wasn't very nice…" He mutters under his breath.
Joker's eyes however stayed glued to Batgirl.
"And what do you want?" Poison Ivy scoffs.
"A little girl talk."
Poison Ivy seductively runs her fingers along the glass of the cell they kept her in.
"I do believe the last time we had a little talk you tricked me."
Poison Ivy darted her eyes towards Joker that was across the way.
"Oh do shut up…"
"Hmmm am I sensing some lady love? Go on now… don't be shy… I'm not looking." He says and covers his face, but spreads his fingers.
Both women roll their eyes.
"Leave us." Batgirl says to the security guards.
They nod and exit the room.
"Ohhhh things are just beginning to heat up! I DO BELIEVE! HOW EXCITING! Now which one's the dominator?! I CAN'T TELL!" He rubs his hands together eagerly.
"SHUT UP!" Poison Ivy and Batgirl chorus.
"Ok, ok say it, don't spray it! HAHA!"
Batgirl reaches to her temples as though she were getting a migraine.
"All day and night…" Poison Ivy complains with a wrinkled nose.
"I can only imagine." Batgirl says with derision in her voice.
She cuts Poison Ivy a sympathetic look as she takes a certain blue bottle from her utility belt. She reaches back and sprays Joker in the face. His eyes roll back and he passes out.
Poison Ivy beams at this.
"Oh I do believe I am in love."
"Then you wouldn't mind giving me some information."
"What is it you want sweetheart?"
"You worked with Clayface…" Batgirl says and paces the area before Poison Ivy's cell.
"Tell me Pamela where does he hide?"
"Hide?" Poison Ivy says behind laughter.
"Oh no my dear, he never hides. He loves to be the center of attention. And how did you learn that name?"
Batgirl smiles.
"Let's just say I pay attention."
"Hmmm, no one's called me that in quite sometime. I'm not so sure I like it."
"Would you prefer Pam? Ivy?"
"Are you trying to seduce me?"
"Is that what you want?"
"Ohhh you're good. Tell me sweetheart, do you still taste just as good as before?" Ivy licks the glass.
Batgirl shrugs.
"I wouldn't know. That's not why I came here. I need to know where Clayface laid low."
"You won't get anywhere if you insist on being stubborn and not listen to a word I'm telling you. He doesn't lay low. He doesn't hide. He's always within the spotlight if it's not shining upon him directly."
"That tells me nothing!"
"Oh but it does… and I thought you were smart. Such a shame… You got the looks but not the brains."
Batgirl closes her eyes for a moment with full on frustration.
"Now if you wouldn't mind… it's time for my nap. Thanks for putting the doleful clown to sleep."
Batgirl says nothing she starts to exit the area.
"Break a leg…" Ivy whispers just enough that Batgirl can make it out. She narrows her eyes at this and leaves.
Once she's out of Arkham Batgirl takes off. She paces one of the nearby high rises in thought.
"Break a leg…" She repeats to herself and tracks back over what Ivy was trying to tell her.
"Spotlight, break a leg, center of attention…" At this Batgirl fired off her grapple gun and took off.
She began searching every abandoned theater she could think of. There were at least 11 of them. She had no luck at the first three. The sun was coming up so Batgirl knew she had no choice. She had to call it and head on back.
Bella headed right for the bat console once she returned. She didn't even bother to get out of her suit. She looked up the name Basil Karlo aka Clayface. She began a thorough history search on whatever she could find. Once she was done she was able to pin it down to three theaters. One was the one he first performed at his old high school. The second had gone bankrupt over a decade or so ago. The third was his most recent and it was one of the old Broadway theaters. The very one he was fired from. Bella tapped her finger along the last one. The one she believed to be her best bet. She looked back to the monitors to see the imposter Bruce in bed with two other women. She rolled her eyes hating that he was ruining Bruce's name. She also kept in mind to burn the bed sheets. Hell get a new bed even.
Alfred was making his way to the secret entrance of the cave. Bella twirled around in her chair as he entered.
"He's out…" She states pointing to the monitor where he was sleeping.
"How are you holding up?" She inquires curiously.
Alfred looked dog tired.
"I was just about to ask you the very same thing."
Bella takes back a breath and nods. She pinches her eyes shut.
"I have to believe he's out there somewhere."
Alfred nods as he places a silver platter filled with food and something to drink on one of the tables of the cave. Bella snaps a look back upon the monitors. The imposter was stirring awake.
"You better go so not to raise questions."
Alfred sighs.
"I'm going to find him."
"There's not a doubt in my mind." He admits as he scurries back out of the cave.
Bella forced herself to eat, but felt nauseas the entire time. She did her best to keep her fears at bay. But no matter how hard she tried she couldn't sleep. As soon as it was dark again she was back out there. She took the batmobile this time and had it navigate her to the specific address of the theater. Batgirl grimaced as she stepped out of the batmobile. She remembered the story Bruce had told her about his parents and how they were brutally murdered outside of a theater. She took in a breath and stepped towards the doors. They were chained and boarded up. Batgirl took out her new explosive chemical spray. Batman hadn't even had a chance to show her how to use it yet. This was something he'd come up with recently. She sprayed the chemicals along the chains and took a few steps back. Batgirl then took out the detonator. She flinched as she pushed the button. The impact sent her flying back a bit as she used her cape to quickly shield her face from the blast. She hadn't realized it'd be that powerful. After dusting herself off she approached the door seeing it worked like a charm. She jerked back on the remains of the chains and stepped inside.
Cautiously, she began to scope out the place. It was certainly rundown. The red paint was chipping off the walls. The old royal colored curtains had holes where rats had been chewing on them. Ironically, a couple of bats flew right past Batgirl. Batgirl however froze and shut her eyes. She could have sworn she was hearing something. Like metal dragging across the floor. She opened her eyes again and began to focus on the sound and where it was coming from.
The sound led her to a basement part of the theater. Yet again the door was chained. Only this time she took more precaution in her new gadget. She nodded to herself in satisfaction. She yanked back on the chains and entered the room. It was dark and sweltering inside. The chain noise grew louder Batgirl used her night vision goggles and came to a complete stop.
"Bruce…" She whispered in sheer disbelief.
He was chained to a brick wall. His arms, ankles, and neck had cuffs around them. He was still in his business suit and it was torn to shreds. A red laser dot however was on his forehead. She swallowed back and looked around to see where it was coming from. She was afraid to even move knowing it was trap.
Sure enough she found the gun that was aimed directly upon him. It was set up on some sort of mechanism. Her heart raced as she tried to think of something desperately. Batgirl hunkered down and found the trigger to the mechanism. She nodded in thought and ran her fingers along the floor just before the trigger. She looked back to the gun then back to Bruce. At this she quickly fired off her grapple gun. Batgirl swung out her feet as she swayed across the room. She used everything she had to dismantle the gun from its post. Batgirl flung out her cape as she landed before Bruce.
He weakly looked upon her. He was covered in sweat, beat up, and severely dehydrated.
Batgirl hurriedly began to figure out a way to break him out. Bruce feebly reached out and tapped a finger along her utility belt. She looked to him oddly and opened the compartment. She took out the device and looked to it rather puzzled at first. She carefully held it out and pressed the black button upon it. Batgirl nodded in understanding. She placed the object into the locks used it to rig them open. A breath of relief escaped her as she got his neck free first. Then his wrists and ankles were next. Bruce staggered back once she was done.
"Bruce…" She whispered and wrapped her arms around him.
"Took you long enough." He uttered gruffly.
