By addressing the concerns of Henry IV's royal authority, Shakespeare comments upon the regent of his own time period—Queen Elizabeth I.

The theme of obedience and rebellion followed by repentance and blessing runs through the entire book, as well as the entire Old Testament. The theme of the holiness of God is continued from the book of Leviticus into the book of Numbers, which reveals God's instruction and preparation of His people to enter the Promised Land of Canaan.

Diane Lane in "Untraceable"
Before she was 20, Diane Lane was director Francis Coppola's most reliable leading lady with performances in "The Outsiders," "Rumble Fish," and "The Cotton Club." She began a lifetime in acting at age six at the La Mama Experimental Theatre in New York (her hometown) with a part in Euripides' "Medea." Her mother was a nightclub singer and Playboy centerfold named Colleen Farmington and Diane's father was a cab driver and drama coach. By 14, she was on the cover of Time hailed as "the next great young actress," and has had steady big screen work since 1980. Precocious is an understatement.
But by the mid-1980s, after Coppola's films failed to rescue him from financial disaster or raise Diane to the heights of her profession, culture and Hollywood threatened to sink Diane's career towards lowbrow fare catering to her sex appeal. Though recognition for her work in the epic miniseries "Lonesome Dove" brought Diane an Emmy nomination in 1989, the following decade saw Diane popping up in Sylvester Stallone's "Judge Dredd," Coppola's "Jack," and the Wesley Snipes political mystery thriller "Murder at 1600." At this point in her career, Diane found far greater acting challenges on television, particularly in "Oldest Living Confederate Widow Tells All" and as Stella to Alec Baldwin's Stanley in the 1995 version of "A Streetcar Named Desire."
Diane's perseverance and sheer endurance eventually paid off in the new millennium. A prelude to her success in this decade was in 1999's "A Walk on the Moon," which earned Diane an Independent Spirit Award nomination for Best Actress. With "Unfaithful," the 2002 thriller with Richard Gere, Diane was not only "suddenly" Hollywood's hottest thing at age 37, but it brought her at long last an Academy Award nomination (the statuette went to Nicole Kidman for "The Hours").
More recently, Diane has emerged in the envious position of romantic comedy leading lady after appearing in such films as "Under the Tuscan Sun" and "Must Love Dogs." But Diane will also dabble in Ashley Judd-esque pictures like "Untraceable," as well as supporting performances as in "Jumper." Recently, Josh Brolin (her husband since 2004) has been finally coming into his own as Diane did in 2002; perhaps a husband and wife teaming isn't too far off?

Diane Lane Interview
Young Diane Lane Talks About Her 18th Birthday on Johnny Carson's Tonight Show 1983.
Diane on the Screen
Her film debut is in 1979 in "A Little Romance," and by 1980, she has the lead in "Touched by Love." She's Liza in "National Lampoon Goes to the Movies," Cherry Valance in Coppola's "The Outsiders," Patty in "Rumble Fish," and Vera Cicero in "The Cotton Club." Diane earned an Emmy nod as Lorena in "Lonesome Dove," and in 1992, she co-stars alongside then-husband Christopher Lambert in "Knight Moves." She's part of the star cast of "Chaplin," Susannah Moore in the biopic "Wild Bill," Christina in the George Clooney / Mark Wahlberg sea adventure "The Perfect Storm," opposite Keanu Reeves in "Hard Ball," Erin Glass in "The Glass House," and Toni Mannix in the Ben Affleck vehicle "Hollywoodland."
On an Oscar nomination:
"It's a bigger dream than I dared to dream for myself."
On self-esteem:
"I have just enough attention to feel glamorous and important."
On husband Josh Brolin:
"Josh was mortified in the beginning, but now he's completely hooked. I want to sit down, and I want to laugh. Nothing works better for me than watching somebody slip on a banana peel."

Ranking the Show's Finales
Discussion in 'CSI: Crime Scene Investigation' started by Crumbs, Sep 15, 2013.
Crumbs Police Officer
Discussion's been a little light recently and anticipation levels for the new season are at their very lowest whilst we all wait with dread to find out what the writers are going to screw up this year. So let's reminisce over the better days the show has seen (or also towards points where the show was even worse). Simply put, how would you rank the finales the show has spurned out over the last thirteen years and write a little something as to why you've put it there?
Here's a short summary of each finale (to refresh those Ray Langston moments you tried so hard to forget :lol :
Season 1: The Strip Strangler
The CSIs investigate a serial killer who's been strangling their victims. Grissom gets hot-tempered with the FBI, Sara becomes bait, Catherine saves Grissom from being bludgeoned to death and the team have a lovely meal at Frank's to finish things off.
Season 2: The Hunger Artist
A disfigured fashion model is found lying dead in a shopping kart. The team explore the glamour mag world and the homeless community. Grissom starts to lose his hearing.
Season 3: Inside the Box
Team Science investigates a bank robbery. Detective Lockwood gets killed (R.I.P.), Catherine finds out who's her daddy and Sam Braun gets away with it. Meanwhile, Grissom goes into surgery to fix his hearing problems.
Season 4: Bloodlines
A casino worker is raped and identifies her attacker but the DNA doesn't agree. Turns out it's due to a rare genetic condition shared between the killer and his siblings. Sara gets a little tipsy and ends up on the wrong side of the law much to Grissom's concern.
Season 5: Grave Danger
Do I really need to? Okay. Nick experiences life underground and gets a bit closer to nature. Grissom almost gets blown up. Then the entire team almost get blown up. Quentin Tarantino adds a bit of his spice to the show. The team are brought back together.
Season 6: Way to Go
A civil war re-enactor is found decapitated by a train whilst another man eats, drinks, drugs and ****s himself to death. Brass faces near death but pulls through (yay!), Ellie has a chance to make up with Jim but runs off (boo!), and the cat is finally out of the bag.
Season 7: Living Doll
The miniature killer is revealed, out on a personal vendetta against a member of the CSI team. The team find out more about the elusive killer. Sara gets kidnapped and left in the desert. Grissom lets slip to the rest of the team about his relationship with a colleague.
Season 8: For Gedda
The notorious, well-renowned mobster Lou Gedda is found dead, unfortunately Warrick is found with the body accused of murdering him with no recollection of the events. The team work together to identify what went down, hoping to clear his name. The good news, Warrick is found innocent, the bad news, looks like the LVPD are somewhat involved. The team have a nice chinwag at the end. Warrick leaves the bar and is shot by the undersheriff (R.I.P. ).
Season 9: All In
Greed leads to murder and destroys the lives of five people when two of them discover a stash of old casino chips worth $1,000 each on the collectible market. Also, Super-Ray shoots a guy.
Season 10: Meat Jekyll
Super-Ray talks to Nate Haskell seeking help to catch the mysterious Dr Jekyll. Brass and Catherine feud over the decision to take Haskell to PD. The team determine the identity of Dr Jekyll who has a tantrum and shoots Nick (eek). Nick then shoots and kills Dr Jekyll (hooray) and everything is good again. Oh and then Haskell stabs Super-Ray.
Season 11: In a Dark, Dark House
Super-Ray kills Haskell in the house he grew up in. Brass goes OOC to cover up some evidence. Then the team goes OOC to spin the evidence (neutral viewpoint be damned) except Sara who has some doubts. Super-Ray is then brought into IAB to determine whether the killing was murder or self-defence.
Season 12: Homecoming
The LVPD comes under scrutiny when a friend of the sheriff becomes involved in a grisly triple-murder. Finn's history is revealed. Undersheriff McKeen rears his ugly head again. Cliffhangers galore ensure: Russell's granddaughter is kidnapped, Finn finds herself in a tricky situation, Ecklie gets shot, the police department are put under investigation and Nick throws in the towel.
Season 13: Skin in the Game
The CSIs explore a series of prostitute murders relating to Dante's Inferno. Ozzy Osborne turns up for some shameless self-promotion. Brass' ex arrives in town, terrified for the safety of their daughter, Ellie. Morgan goes undercover, seduces some weirdo and gets kidnapped in an SUV. It's then revealed the same people also have Ellie.
My order changes from time to time depending on my mood and how recently I last saw the episode but here are the ones I consider great episodes as well:
Inside the Box (Season 3) – not only my favourite finale, but my favourite episode overall. I love all the little moments which come with it from the team eating Chinese in the break room, to Doc Robbins personally delivering the bullet which killed Lockwood to the lab and Greg dealing with the aftermath of the lab explosion. It's a Catherine episode through and through and I love the scenes between her and Sam Braun (a favourite recurring character of mine) but there's a great sense of team unity throughout. The final scene is also classic Gil & Cath. A+
The Strip Strangler (Season 1) – like Season 3's, this one doesn't try to go too over the top and all big guns like a lot of later finales do. The scene with the team at the diner at the end is an instant classic and something the writers should strive to achieve in all episodes. The case also is compelling, realistic and there are lots of great sub-elements like Grissom's feud with the FBI and Nick's encounter with the reporter. A
Bloodlines (Season 4) – another example of keeping it simple, keeping it low-key and not making it too personal. One of my favourite cases throughout the series, dark, unconventional and completely unpredictable. It's definitely one of the most sinister episodes the show has ever produced! The DUI side-plot isn't a favourite of mine but it nicely sets up Sara's breakdown mid-Season 5. A
Grave Danger (Season 5) – There's no doubt that this is a fantastic two hours of television, but what stops it getting the top spot is that it doesn't feel like two hours of CSI. Big guns, guest director, CSI in peril, I see the episode as the transition from the science aspects in to the personal aspect of the show and sadly it's seen as the finale the writers feel they have to top, and none of its successors has even gotten close. The episode itself contains some absolutely fantastic acting, particularly from George Eads and William Petersen, it's gripping, unpredictable and completely crazy (and completely flawed but I won't go into plotholes ). As I said before, as an episode of television, it's an A/A+ but as an episode of CSI, it's getting an A-
The Hunger Artist (Season 2) – Easily the most emotional of the thirteen episodes in this list, the scene with the homeless sister showing the victim her face on the billboard does a good job at trying to blast through my stone-cold heart. The episode is a great insight into the ruthless world of modelling, albeit with a slightly one-sided perspective. For me though, the case isn't quite as compelling as the others above hence its respectable 5th place position. It's one I could do with watching again though. A-
Now we descend to the second-tier finales. Ranging from decent to merely mediocre but ultimately rewatchable.
For Gedda (Season 8 ) – there are some great moments in this episode, notably the last scene at the diner and the team's internal struggle with the possibility that Warrick had murdered somebody, however at times the pace drags on a bit and the mood feels particularly depressing throughout. Whilst the end of Warrick's character was an ugly decision, I'm pleased he left the show innocent, clean (from his awful storyline earlier that season) and missed. That final scene, difficult to watch, was done pretty well. B+
Homecoming (Season 12) – a middling episode for me. The case and the LVPD corruption angle had great potential and I thought was pretty interesting. The DB family/Finn drama I could have done without. Bringing McKeen back was done pretty well, and I liked that Nick got to get a bit up in his face. The cliffhangers of Ecklie being shot and Nick's quitting piqued my interest but sadly most of the intriguing parts of this story were abandoned in the second half. A messy episode, but I enjoyed it nonetheless. B
Way to Go (Season 6) – without the Brass situation or the GSR reveal, the latter of which I don't particularly care about, this would have been a pretty bog-standard episode. Both cases suffer from being rushed, underdeveloped and a bit boring to be honest. I think it would have been better if they ditched the B-case and expanded the A-case a little more. Grissom jumping about from the hospital to the crime scene felt a bit off as well. The Brass aspect is wonderful, even with the Ellie drama, and the scene where he wakes up seeing the team surrounding him is an absolute joy and saves this episode from going on the crap pile. B-
Meat Jekyll (Season 10) – the 'more bearable' of the Langston finales. Minus Super-Ray undermining the rest of the team it's not actually a terrible episode. The Brass/Catherine drama is interesting, Haskell still hasn't been butchered by the writers and there are some fun scenes such as everyone visiting Nick in the hospital. The one thing which really drags this episode down, the pointless Super-Ray gets shanked by Haskell ending. Not only does it feel radically out of place and out of left-field, it makes Super-Ray look like a complete moron and just showed the writers feel like they need a cliffhanger to end the season. B-
Skin in the Game (Season 13) – I'm still awaiting the premiere to truly determine my opinion but as a finale it leaves too many loose ends. The case was pretty dull, the Morgan undercover plot was unnecessary and ridiculous. Brass once again saves the finale from going on the crap pile (though if the premiere doesn't tie things up neatly I'll probably put it there). C+
Now we get to the crap pile, episodes I really didn't like and ones I probably won't watch ever again.
Living Doll (Season 7) – often regarded as one of the show's best episodes, I think Living Doll is a very poorly written finale and sours the Miniature Killer arc in numerous ways. Despite having an entire season to build up the MK, the writers try to cram in about 6 months of backstory into the opening thrity minutes. The immediate reveal of Natalie loses any form of suspense and I hate the way the arc essentially turns into a plot device to move GSR forward. Team interaction is minute, Nick, Warrick and Brass are very much sidelined, Greg gets about two lines and Sara herself only appears for a couple of moments. This story had tons of potential it ultimately falls apart as the motive to catch a malicious serial killer is shafted to the motive to capture Sara's kidnapper. I also forgot to mention that I think it's one of the most boring hours of television the show has ever done. C-
All In (Season 9) – truth be told, I completely forgot what this episode was about and had to google a synopsis for it. I just remember it being horribly boring, unmemorable and with another stupid ending for the sole purpose of a cliffhanger. Do I need to watch this one again? Probably. Do I want to? No. D
In a Dark, Dark House (Season 11) – I find with this show there are two types of bad episodes: Boring episodes and ridiculously over-the-top, implausible episodes. This episode introduces an even worse dimension (well, continues from the rest of the Haskell arc) which is completely ruining the integrity of your show and characters. Tainting Brass' character by having him remove evidence: Unforgiveable. Having the team spinning the evidence in Ray's favour: Unforgiveable. Super-Ray being allowed to roam freely, even looking into the case despite being under investigation from IAB: Unforgiveable. Is this the most boring episode of the series? No, it's not even the most boring on the list. Is it the most implausible and over-the-top episode? No. But it's one which essentially collects together 10 ½ years of the show's core ethos and message, shreds it down, burns it, and then (pardon my French) takes a big steaming turd all over the ashes. F
Doing this exercise has made me realise two things. This show is actually not very good at doing finales and that Greg is the only CSI has not had a significant role in any of the finales, despite being in all thirteen of them.
So what are your thoughts? Do you agree with my ranking or is it completely different? I rambled on a bit but I don't expect you have to as well but I'd be interested to hear your thoughts.
P.S. I'm so sorry if you read every single word of that essay!

Crumbs said: ↑
Discussion's been a little light recently and anticipation levels for the new season are at their very lowest whilst we all wait with dread to find out what the writers are going to screw up this year.
LOL, so true. I was about to post (and may well in the original thread) that this past season's finale wasn't as bad as I thought. OK, let's rephrase that: Hubby and I actually enjoyed the season finale, but my opinion was swayed by many of the comments I read here, and so I downgraded my overall opinion.
Even though neither one of us was crazy about the "CSI in danger" motif yet again, it wasn't as bad as it could have been. The pacing of the plot was good, the screen time among the regulars was evenly shared, and the guest journalist didn't bug me as much as he did the first time around. And while I originally thought that Annabella Sciorra's talents were horribly wasted, watching it again last week I thought she was actually used pretty well.
So I'm back to thinking that it was a pretty good finale, as these things go. I do agree with you that CSI does not do finales very well. I've generally disliked most of them and felt they were a step down from what the series was capable of.
Here are my rankings, which for the most part go down as the seasons progress:
I have a soft spot for this episode; without hitting us over the head, it sends a statement about our media-contrived "ideal" of the perfect body. The dead woman was such a sad, tragic figure ... victimized by the fashion industry she had worked for. Both she and her sister were mentally ill, a topic too often trivialized and/or sensationalized by the media. It was wonderful to see Grisson extend sensitivity, kindness and empathy toward the homeless woman and connect with her in a way that few people do ... especially as scripted in a television series.
No cliffhanger ... which I like. Just a good, solid case with believable actions/reactions from all involved, and the "CSI in danger" element (Sara) was minimal.
This one had little in the way of personal angst (till the end, and even that was downplayed), and I liked how Grissom solved the puzzle with the Chimera angle.
Here's where the personal involvement in cases (this time around, Catherine and Sam Braun) started to get on my nerves.
Never really felt like a CSI episode to me, more like a Tarantino showcase. And why, oh why was the grave shift investigating, when it involved one of their own? This is a question that CSI never satisfactorily answers every time there's a "CSI in danger/CSI directly involved in some aspect of the case" plot.
Surprisingly, this one moves way up in my rankings ... for the reasons I explained above.
Not crazy about Brass's near-death or the "big reveal" at the end.
A silly resolution, IMO, to what had been a riveting story arc.
Warrick's death was the only compelling (not to mention, shocking) thing that happened in the entire episode.
Very blah case and season finale. Almost like the writers were totally lost on what to do with Ray ... or the others in the ensemble.
Could we be any more over the top?
Yes ... sadly, it turns out we can.
Loathed the granddaughter angst, the father/daughter/Ecklie getting shot angst, etc. Where was the case in all of this, and why were the grave-shift CSIs investigating (especially since D.B. was personally involved)? No good answer to any of these questions.

Gloriana Dead on Arrival
Discussion's been a little light recently and anticipation levels for the new season are at their very lowest whilst we all wait with dread to find out what the writers are going to screw up this year. So let's reminisce over the better days the show has seen (or also towards points where the show was even worse).
Yes, I think the dread is palpable, haha. Great idea for a thread, I was (no pun intended) stoked to see it when I hopped on. I liked reading your reviews and thoughts on the finales. Looking forward to seeing everyone's responses.
My order of favorites:
1. Inside The Box: 100% agreed with you on this one, Crumbs. This is one of those episodes that proves you don't have to provide a massive cliff-hanger to end a season with a gratifying conclusion. It's one of those episodes that's still gripping even after countless viewings, I have yet to tire of it. I'm still touched by how they handled Lockwood's death, still intrigued by the mysteries involved, and still moved by Catherine and Grissom's respective character developments. The scenes inside the safety deposit box vault still look fantastic too (All hail Danny Cannon!).
2. Bloodlines: For me, this finale comes in second all because of Nina Siemaszko and her performance. The plot itself works, but I think it's one of those plots that works the best the very first time you see it and can kind of wane a bit upon repeat viewings. I think it's her performance that elevates this one for me, because it anchors everything else. Every single time I so desperately want her to make it and I'm heartbroken when she doesn't. I think this is also one of the best examples of the writers taking something very out of the ordinary (Chimerism) and making it utterly believable. It's a hard episode to watch because it's so harrowing, but I think it's one of the best from all the seasons.
3. Grave Danger: I admit, I always look forward to seeing this one when I'm re-watching the seasons on DVD. I guess because it really is like the closest thing to a big-screen version of CSI there's ever going to be. I'm also a sucker for 80s television, and it feels like a throwback to that era of TV (and I pretty much lose it with excitement when I see John Saxon appear in ANYTHING since he was cast as the villain in all of my fave shows as a kid). This ep also never fails to get me emotionally involved, and George Eads was so good in this one (I cry every single time he wants to get out of that box but has to wait). There are definitely plot holes in it, but I guess I forgive that because I look forward to so many scenes (Hodges and Greg playing the old board game, Sam Braun chewing the fat about old Las Vegas with Tony Curtis and Frank Gorshin, Nick singing 'Lucky Too' at the beginning, etc). Not my favorite finale over all the others, but still so enjoyable for me.
4. For Gedda: I actually skip this finale sometimes, for obvious reasons, but I think it does stand up as a very good finale even without the emotional aspects (like, even if Warrick had lived, it would have stood up as a great episode). It's hard for me to watch because I agree, there is a real tangible darkness to this episode (and the surrounding episodes leading up to it), but unlike a lot of the other finales, it doesn't feel cheap or unearned, you know? It doesn't feel like a gratuitous dark turn, I think they did a good job at really getting everyone worried and concerned about the fate of Warrick in an honest way, and that's part of the reason it hurts so much when it ends the way it does. I always cry like a baby at the end, but not simply because a character dies. It's heartbreaking because the bad guys don't always get defeated in a tidy way, and because we were all pulling for Warrick to weather the storm of all the stuff that had been challenging his resolve during the season. Like I said, I skip this finale a lot because it's so emotional, but not because it fails as a solid episode.
5. The Hunger Artist: This was another one that didn't have the ginormous cliffhanger at the end, but felt like a perfect wrap-up of the season itself. It still foreshadowed things to come and left me wondering what was going to happen on some fronts, but focused on being a very solid episode about Las Vegas itself and the ugly nature that rears its head in that world. I like the episodes that provide subtext like that, and this is one of the best one of those I think. It really paints a stark picture of some of the ugly realities Grissom and the rest have to face doing their particular jobs in Las Vegas, and I really appreciated that in terms of the extra layer it gave to the series before Season 3 began. I think it did a good job at laying foundations for the subsequent season.
6. Living Doll: I agree with you, Crumbs that the reveal of Natalie at the very beginning does pretty much suck, and was not the best writing choice at all. I think that may have worked if that had been the immediate sequel to one establishing episode, not so much as a reveal after a whole season-long arc. Even though that was disappointing, I still like the episode over others as a finale, because I do feel palpable suspense and foreboding when I watch it. I do find Natalie to be a very creepifying character, and I still worry when Sara is trapped with her. I agree that it was a very sub-par ending to a really interesting serial-killer story, but I'm still engrossed in it more than a lot of the other finales. When I first saw it, I thought Sara might actually die so I guess that still holds over for me in terms of suspense, even if I pick at a lot of the dumber plot elements involved here (I do agree with many of your criticisms about this one, for sure).
7. All-In: I've been asking myself why I couldn't list this episode anywhere else in my list, because I agree it's not the best episode in this series or even really so great as a finale. Still, I enjoy the hell out of this episode every time I see it, it's one of the only episodes in Season 9 I really do enjoy. I really liked the idea of a pair of ne'er do wells stumbling across a cache of buried casino chips, and I really loved watching the fallout of that. I think I might also be biased because Gerald McCraney is another character actor I love, and I'm just pleased as punch whenever I see him pop up anywhere. So I think I'm basically rating this episode here simply because I just love watching it, even if the critic in my head says I shouldn't, haha.
8. Way To Go: I never really liked this finale because when I first saw it, it just felt like more pandering and putting a character in danger just for the sake of it. I watched it again recently, though, and it played a lot better to me. I was more involved in the B-story mystery of the wasp-waisted Civil War fella, and more involved in Brass' reasoning for putting himself in such a dangerous position (though, I still really don't care for the B-Story about the fella who didn't think he'd live past 40, it felt like an afterthought). And yeah, the scene where Ellie takes off but Brass' LVPD family is still there for him affected me a lot more than it did the first time (and makes me hope even more they give Brass a better resolution with Ellie than just killing her off once this new season starts).
9. The Strip Strangler: This one rates low for me only because I had the same exact problem with it as I did with the most recent finale; Why on earth would a CSI go undercover to help catch a killer instead of a police officer or Fed trained in such work? I know they tried hanging lanterns on it to justify it, but it's just one of those things where I can't suspend my disbelief. I usually like Gregg Henry in anything he does, but he just came off as a stock 'hard nose FBI guy' here and I just found it cloying I guess. I never felt Sara was in any real danger, and she came off as obstinate for no reason here. It's just not one of my favorite episodes, and one of my least favorite finales (though I do like a lot of the social interaction between the team, it just wasn't enough to save it for me).
10. Meat Jekyll, In A Dark Dark House, Homecoming, Skin In The Game: If I tried rating or reviewing any of these, I would just go off on vitriolic rants, so I'll just say I really can't stand to watch any of these. The Jekyll plot had me throwing my hands up at every turn because I thought it was ridiculous from the start, and Nate Haskell became stunningly irritating to me (I thought he was actually quite creepy in the first episode we ever saw him in, but he should have stayed there). I don't care for any of these seasons at all, and they're not seasons I'm ever going to buy or willfully revisit. I guess for me, my tolerance level stopped at Season 9. I know it might sound unfair and snotty, but I can't rate these in order because they all suck equally to me, you know?
I don't know if anyone will even read all that either, but I had fun revisiting the finales. Like you said, sort of like a trip back to 'the good times', haha. And again, I'm looking forward to seeing everyone's lists.
Thanks for the thread, Crumbs! :thumbsup:

Hear, hear! Had they used Haskell only in the two-part Langston intro/Grissom exit, he would have joined Paul Milander as one of my all-time favorite creepy CSI characters (no small feat). But no, they had to apply the same treatment to him that they did to Ray — overkill — and ruin a good thing.
sharp52092 Star Wars and CSI Fan Moderator
The Strip Strangler: This is the kind of finale I long to see again. A little suspense when Grissom goes down to see Goggle but a nice ending. The team at dinner not ending on another CSI in peril.
Bloodlines: Great case
Inside the Box: Great Catherine, Grissom, and a few Greg things.
Way To Go: Cases are kinda so-so, but the civil war one was enjoyable. Cliff hanger is probably one of my favorites
Grave Danger: Some great acting and case stuff, but I don't really care for Tarantino
The Hunger Artist: Good case, but it was never at the top of my list
Living Doll: While it ended on a serious cliff/CSI in peril it was almost my first and it was an incredibly long summer. Though now when I watch it certainly not as exciting as it was the first time
For Gedda: Pretty suspenseful. Very good case work, but I after the bittersweet diner scene I always turn it off. Can't watch the last minute
Meat Jekyll: Haven't watched in awhile, but there was some good case/team stuff if I recall. Catherine too. Haskell ugh, no comment there, and it wasn't a very good cliffhanger.
All In: Pretty boring episode
In A Dark Dark House/Homecoming/Skin in the Game: I agree with several things listed above

My two cents....
I like the days of regular ol' episodes as finales. Every show these days tries to outdo itself with the crazy stuff.
Now, when CSI did start to get a little crazy, they did it right. Tarantino AND no cliffhanger...finished it up right there.
After that...things get a little fuzzy for me. Some of them were horrible finales. Have to say I was pleased that Nick took down Jekyll. But that damn Haskell story that carried on for THREE seasons is unforgivable.
And now? Geeze...DB's granddaughter kidnapped...Morgan kidnapped...Ecklie shot...Ellie kidnapped....stupid, stupid, over the top and unrealistic. Hate it.

The Forbidden Mates: Bane Werewolf Colony
Dahlia31 4 stories
Addy bit back tears as Pierce got to his feet and wiped the blood from his mouth. She should've left when she had the chance. It was her fault Pierce got in trouble with his brother. She glanced at Pierce.
"I can't do that, Victor," he said. "She needs me."
"The colony is more important than her."
Addy wondered what he meant by the colony. He said that word twice now. It was a funny way to address your family. Did they take in others who were in similar situations like her? Duh, of course not. The way Victor reacted to her should've told her that much. What did it mean then? Addy stepped back until she felt the doorknob poking into her back. She reached behind her and gripped it in her palm. The way Victor glared at her was scary. She was bolting out the door if he tried anything.
"Victor, you don't understand," Pierce said gesturing at her. "She's my-"
"I don't care. I'll never allow it!" Victor sniffed the air and growled. "Her disgusting scent is all over the place!"
Addy frowned. She lifted her shirt and gave it a sniff. She didn't smell anything. She sniffed at her skin but she didn't smell unpleasant. The only thing she could smell was the Jasmine soap Pierce bought for her the other day. Did Victor have allergies or something? Was that why the scent bothered his nose?
"Forgive me," Addy said, surprising herself. "I didn't mean to get Pierce into trouble."
Victor narrowed his gaze at her as if she had no right to speak to him. Addy tried to ignore his dagger-like stare. "I was attacked and he saved my life. I was too scared to sleep on the streets and so he brought me here."
Victor laughed at her. Addy glanced at Pierce. Pierce's eyes stayed glued to his brother. Addy knew Victor's laugh was a slap in the face to her. She wanted to be angry at him but she couldn't. She had to get Pierce out of this predicament although she didn't understand why Pierce was clamoring for his brother's approval.
"Let me guess, she's homeless. She has nothing to give you, but you protect her like this," Victor said. "You can't save everybody, Pierce especially not some worthless human who could be the death of you."
"I care about Addison," Pierce argued. "I don't care what you say. I won't abandon her like this!"
Addy didn't register what Pierce said. The word Victor used. Human. She was a worthless human. Maybe he was crazy or something. Maybe his injuries made him delusional. She glanced from Pierce to him. They both looked human to her. What was going on here?
"Addison is it? I don't care what her name is or what rat hole she crawled out from. You're not going to do anything except what I tell you! As the alpha of the colony, I'll make damn sure that human never enters my territory!"
Pierce gasped as did Addy. He said it again. Addy couldn't keep her curiosity in check anymore. She had to know what he meant. Addy raised her hand slightly to make Victor look at her. She wished she hadn't.
"Ummm.. what do you mean? You keep referring to me as human. What does that make you?"
Victor seemed to take sheer delight in her question. "Oh, he didn't tell you what we are, did he? Well, that's too bad."
"Victor, no," Pierce said with a pleading look in his eyes. "Please, I wanted to be the one to tell her."
Victor growled as his beast began to emerge from within him. "Allow me to show you what we are."
Addy watched in horror. Victor's human features melted away to reveal a wolf-like creature. The wolf's left eye glowed yellow and the right eye was a piercing white. The change was partial but it terrified her all the same. Addy swallowed nervously and glanced at Pierce. Pierce stood there in utter shock. He wouldn't look at her. Addy tried to wrap her mind around everything she learned about him over the few weeks she'd been with him. Pierce never gave anything away that he was more than human. All this time she was living with a wolf-like creature. A man that could shift into this creature at will. Addy gasped. Victor mentioned colony on more than one occasion which meant pack.
Pierce wanted his approval because Victor was the leader of the colony. If he didn't agree with their choices, he could override them. Victor was an alpha male and there was only a handful of species where an alpha was needed. The one that came to Addy's mind was a wolf. Man shifting into a wolf made him a werewolf. Addy let her grip slip from the doorknob. Danag was a vampire and Pierce was a werewolf. Funny thing is Pierce never hurt her. He was always kind and gentle. Vampires and werewolves were at war with each other, weren't they?
It explained why Danag didn't come after her when Pierce saved her life. He was no match for him. All this time she was here with Pierce it never crossed her mind. If Pierce wanted to hurt her, he could have by now. Pierce saw in her a potential girlfriend or in werewolf terms, she was his mate. Addy was surprised that she knew more about them than she thought. She decided as she went over to Pierce that she wouldn't let Victor scare her off. Pierce wouldn't hurt her. Pierce grabbed her hands, bringing her out of her thoughts.
"I'm sorry, Addison," he said. "I wanted to tell you but-"
Pierce glanced at her in shock. Addy smiled. "I don't care what you are. You saved my life and if you wanted to hurt me, you would've done so by now. Nothing will ever change how grateful I am to you or how I feel about you."
Victor shifted back into his human form. He scowled. Addy was tougher than that. She wouldn't let him use this trick as a way to get rid of her. Pierce could be a flying pig for all she cared. He was there for her and that's all that mattered to her. She lifted her chin at him, daring to look him in the eye. Victor didn't appreciate the move but she didn't care.
"I'm not afraid of you or Pierce," she said. "It'll take more than that to scare me away."
Victor stalked toward her. Addy winced a little. He was taller than her true, but standing this close to her he towered over her. He grabbed her shirt and brought her so close to him, she could see how deep the scar ran over his face.
"Your kind was responsible for the death of our father," Victor growled. "You manipulate us with sweet words and the next thing you know, you trick us into doing your bidding. Putting us in fighting arenas. Killing us for sport. Daring to bet on us with your dirty money. I won't let you be the death of him. I won't accept you not in a million years."

The day Sir Robin Day cut my hair
At the age of around six I very clearly remember being taken to The Savoy Saloon barber's shop in the Cranbrook Road, Gants Hill by my mother and having my hair cut by none other than Sir Robin Day. You remember him don't you? He was the darling of political interviews, used to chair Question Time in the days before David Dimbleby, and would always sport a bow tie. It took some considerable time for me to work out that the chap in question who never did utter anything particularly witty or ask any probing questions regarding the government's economic policy while snipping away with his scissors, wasn't actually the real McCoy moonlighting in a barber's shop in the suburban backwaters of Essex. He did, however, sport a bow tie and could easily have passed for Mr Day's younger brother. This said, that feeling of being in awe and dumbstruck is one I still feel whenever inadvertently rubbing shoulders with someone who not only looks like someone we all know, but actually is that very same person.
The first time I remember seeing a genuinely well known face in public was when I started secondary school and began to use the London Underground. On this particular occasion I can remember taking my seat on the Northern Line opposite none other than the Right Honourable Dennis Healey in a light coloured raincoat reading The Times. The strange thing was that everybody in the carriage simply pretended that they hadn't recognised him - myself included. Such is the British reserve that it takes someone either half drunk or not all there to have the Dutch courage or sheer audacity to introduce themselves and intrude on the well-known person's privacy. It's a sad indictment of our times that senior politicians can no longer be spied on public transport for the obvious security risks. Indeed, many are now shadowed by a bodyguard or ten.
Then there was the time when I worked in the fashionable King's Road and saw Dustin Hoffman brazenly stride down the street in a t-shirt and jeans. (It was the year he made 'Tootsie' and was no doubt promoting the film in London.) No one acknowledged him until a middle-aged lady selling flowers from a flower stall smiled at him, and as a result, he bought a bouquet and kissed her on the cheek. Needless to say, the effect was seismic. Within seconds she was running around like a headless chicken declaring to the entire world that she'd just been kissed by Dustin Hoffman. I've never forgotten that small gesture by this giant Hollywood star who isn't particularly tall by the way.
For some curious reason, I seem to bump into politicians rather a lot. On one memorable occasion, I was fortunate enough to meet the former Prime Minister, Harold Wilson while dining in, of all places, the Berni Inn Steakhouse in Oxford. I was with a group of friends, one of whom was a very charming lawyer by the name of Nigel who took an active interest in politics and knew that Wilson had just been recovering from illness. On spotting the distinguished figure shuffle through the dimly lit restaurant with his wife, Nigel sprang to his feet. "It's very nice to see you in Oxford, Sir. I do hope you're feeling better now."
Wilson eyed up Nigel and smiled. "I'm feeling much better thank you very much. In fact, I'm just back from giving a talk in America." Nigel, ever the courteous listener enquired how it had gone down. Wilson sensing he had a bit of an audience, turned to all of us and explained that it had all gone down rather well. "But then, it was America," he added with a twinkle in his eye. "I could have said anything and they'd have still given me a standing ovation." And with that, he shuffled off with his wife to a table at the back of the restaurant. He passed away a couple of years later and I remember all the tributes and obituaries, few of which highlighted his obvious sense of mischief. If I'm correct, when standing down as leader and making way for Jim Callaghan, he was asked by a BBC reporter why he'd decided to stand down. "I'm making way for an older man," he quipped and stepped into his parked limousine. Jim Callaghan was indeed the older man.
Very recently my brother and I visited our mum at her care home in North London and on entering the communal living area, we both quite literally bumped into Mr John Bercow, the Speaker of the House of Commons. He was apparently settling his own mum into the home, and was very keen to hear how our mum was finding it. We ended up chatting to him at length. He's very charming, personable and down to earth.
Most recently, I have found myself sitting very close, by chance, to the lovely Reverend Richard Coles (the UK's funniest man of the cloth, surely). In fact, rather spookily this has happened to me twice. The first time was while travelling on the London Underground (Piccadilly line this time). He sat next to me but I didn't know it was him until he started humming to himself while reading a leaflet designed for the 'Memorial Service for Sir John Tavener.' He was no doubt humming one of the late maestro's compositions. I couldn't tell as the underground train was making too much noise, and I didn't like to ask. No more than a couple of months later, I was in the bar of the Holiday Inn in Regent's Park with a friend, and on leaving, Coles arrived with a friend and sat at the table we had just vacated.
Sadly, I've yet to have my hair cut by one of the media's national treasures. But one can, I suppose, live in hope.

There may be a couple of items on your Equifax credit rating report, but you will want to contact the other two bureaus and get your reports from them to notice exactly who you owe and how much.
When opening a line of credit, getting a house or a car, or simply obtaining a loan from a bank, the bank may report to one of the three agencies. A few companies just report to Equifax while another may just report to Experian. Presently, some may report to more than one company and a few companies may report to all three.
Everything you do that involves credit- -your credit cards, personal loans, car loans and mortgage loans, all have an effect on your credit rating. However, if you pay your bills on time and have every one of them in great standing, this affects your credit score positively. Banks use a variety of different credit rating models for the scores they give you, which is the reason you may have different credit scores for different credit bureaus.
Credit scores are affected by the number and severity of late payments, the sort, age and number of credit accounts, your total obligation and any enquiries that ask for your credit score. Credit scores are not affected by any of your personal data, for example, age, race or marital status.
You should continue to attempt to improve your credit score. Pay your bills on time and keep your balances low on credit cards and other "revolving credit". A high outstanding obligation can negatively affect your score. You should apply for credit as you need it and pay off the obligations you have rather than moving it around. Stay up to date with the information in your credit report. Experian, Equifax and CIBIL offers you access to your credit score, which you can view for a nominal expense. You can then watch your Experian, Equifax, or CIBIL credit score's fluctuations and know how your obligations are affecting your credit score.
To maintain your credit score yourself, the first thing you will need is accurate information on how to dispute your derogatory accounts and a demonstrated strategy to put into action. This information is available on online credit repair manuals, many of which cost less than the down payment required by a company.


You will find whatever you need. In the historical centres of the cities, exclusive boutiques in every street and square offer the best brands. You will see little shops of every kind, crafts and antiques shops, art galleries and shops selling traditional local products.
Sport fans will discover endless opportunities for shopping at convenient prices in shops specializing in latest-generation technical equipment and clothing from the most prestigious brands.


There's more to the story player cars are left at the ground on match day as they arrive on a coach from the hotel (which they stay in the night before the game) then drive home after the game from the ground. Martial arrived at midday yesterday collected his car and drove off. He didn't storm out of the ground and never even went in the ground as the rest of the team hadn't arrived yet.
Sounds like he had treatment at the training ground in the morning, was dropped off to collect his car and then left rather than stay and watch the game from the stands.
Apparently he wasn't in any of Saturday's training pics so the injury sounds legit.
The reason he didn't stay and watch the game is unknown as it doesn't sound like anyone has asked and it wasn't mandatory for those not involved to be at the ground for the game.
That said I'd say it's 25-75 that he's at the club next season all signs currently point towards the exit which is a shame because he's a talented player he just doesn't fit the direction the club is currently going in.
It's poor form on his behalf not to stick around do the lap of honour and thank the fans for their support over the season.
But if his girlfriend is pregnant and about to go in to labour you can't really blame him for wanting to be around her.
@IDFD that's all online speculation about why he might not have stuck around.
He or his people posted something on his social media thanking Carrick but so did every current Utd player, Daley Blind didn't even tag the correct Man Utd in his post ha!
to be honest JSP, everything we discuss on here is speculation. We have no idea about anything that happens inside the club.
My point was more it wasn't even paper speculating about his mrs going into labour it was fans on twitter responding to the guy who sent out the original tweet.
I hate to say this but... I hope we sell him and I hope he goes on to become a world class player. It pains me to say that because you never want that situation to play out but he's been mistreated here. He's never been allowed to develop properly and he's been cast aside now and I think that continues next year too.
Didn't make the World Cup squad.
If he doesn't start the FA Cup final I don't see him hanging around here next season whatever we offer him.
Well I hope we don't sell him because I still really like him but I do agree he could have been used better. However, I would bet more on him leaving than staying in the summer, it just seems to have got to that stage.
As for the World Cup, guess it was always on the cards that he would miss out but he is on the standbys so there is a chance we will see him yet.
Can't see what he's replying to. Does Di Marzio think he's staying or going. Everything since the season has ended suggests the club wants to keep him but the question is does Mourinho and does Martial want to stay. I think it's possible that he and Pogba both see themselves out-staying Mourinho and prospering when he goes.
Jose definitely wants to keep him, he has said so publicly.
Randomly spotted all his Utd posts on Instagram have been removed no mention of Utd anywhere on his social media.
In 2018 that translates as I want out.
I don't really blame him for wanting to go but his agent needs to go and find Utd an acceptable bid now as we can't be letting him go at a loss.
Is it a bluff for a better deal?
From his agent's comments it sounds like he could have left in January but stayed because of the fans. Don't think he's the only one fed up of Mourinho. Recent comments from Pogba seem to hint at a poor relationship but he wants to stay it seems.
Can't blame Martial for wanting out, wants to start games and isn't going to get that at United as he isn't a Mourinho favourite. Still has one of the best goals/assists per 90 in the league. He'll likely go and be brilliant elsewhere, I just hope it's not at another English club.
Could be but your agent going on record the way he has is basically saying the player wants to go.
Utd have apparently spent 70m euro so far on Martial with the original fee plus add ons so it's going to take a big offer to make us sell but he's only got 2 years on his deal so this is our best chance at getting our money back or making profit.
I understand his position since Mourinho took over he's signed 3 players to play ahead of him Zlatan, Lukaku & Sanchez it's clear that Mourinho doesn't fancy him and Martial maybe doesn't want to play the role Mourinho wants him to play. He's arguably 3rd choice LW & 3rd choice striker as Rashford is probably ahead of him in the pecking order currently.
Sell him and use the money to buy a proper right forward makes a lot of sense right now but this kids talent could take him on to be a real world class player like Henry became or he could end up being an Anelka incredible talent that arguably never really fulfilled what we saw early on.
Sanchez has to be much better and we have to replace him with a right sided attacker. Sounds like we're not getting a LB in, for me that's a big mistake, not getting a right attacker to replace Martial either would be brainless.
Martial wants to leave and I absolutely don't blame him. In other to improve and progress in to the player he can be he needs to play for a different manager. One who will support him, back him and play him even if he has the odd bad performance.
But so help me god if we sell to a EPL team I don't know if I'll be able to handle that.
I think this story has definitely got some weight. Bouhafsi is as reliable as it gets and now media outlets are printing the story.
I wouldn't blame him if he did want to go, not convinced Jose will ever want to give him a run now he's got Sanchez. I would be fuming if we sold him to another Premier League side because he can flourish under the right manager if given a chance. Let's hope he goes overseas and he could well be used as a bargaining chip for another player.
He is still one of my favourite players we have. Without him we have very few players who can beat a man. So if were to sell we have to replace him with a like for like signing but on the right side.
If we sell Martial and don't get in a replacement, as well as not bringing in a left back I think fans may well revolt!
When we signed him I wondered are we getting the next Henry or the next Anelka and I have to say after 3 years he feels more of an Anelka than an Henry.
A different manager maybe more prepared to dedicate some time to him might bring more out of him but Mourinho just isn't that guy the personalities clash to much.
lets not forget the contract was on the table unsigned before we signed Sanchez. Maybe we knew he wasn't going to sign.
He's too inconsistent to warrant a starting place. Shame, because if he stayed i'm sure Jose would have used him more and more if he could find that consistency. But the fans are just too unforgiving at united at the moment and want everything at once.
Jose has much to get right this season. Media speculation that he is happy with Young at lb and so on don't fill me with confidence but as I said, it's speculation.
Martials agent did say though, if Utd don't want to sell him he is happy to run down his contract.
Read into this what you will but Martial could well be here a lot longer than Jose. Jose's head is nearing the block if he doesn't get the right players in and play a better style of football this season.
I still don' think we'll let him go to be honest.
But if we did, and got Bale in, that would probably be a better balance?
good, lets hope he comes back hungry and makes utd up the contract to whatever it is hes holding out for.
I have mixed feelings towards Martial. On the one hand, the lad didn't do himself any favors when he was whoring around a couple of years ago, which led to his wife filing for divorce, which in turn severely affected his performance on the pitch. On the other hand, I can't say that Mourinho has held him in high esteem. I always felt that he would sub Martial the instant he had an average game, not to mention an awful one. As soon as Martial had one average game, he'd instantly end up on the bench. Compare that with Alexis Sanchez, who has been rubbish in more than half of his games for United so far.
By the time Sanchez was brought in in January, I thought we had finally struck a balance with Martial on the left, Mata on the right and Lukaku up front. I really liked how United played at the time and Martial even scored in all of the three matches prior to Sanchez's arrival. And then, BOOM! The Chilean comes and Martial and Rashford get benched instantly. And even after a dozen of crappy displays from Sanchez (don't get me wrong, I like the guy and love his attitude on the pitch), Martial could still not get a proper chance to earn a place on the team sheet.
I'd like Martial to stay (like Red Warrior said, Mourinho's fate is far from certain), but I would understand if he'd choose to leave.
It was 3 in the previous 4 before Sanchez signed. He then played 90 minutes in 2 of the following 3 and was awful. It was also a total of 6 in the previous 24 before the signing of Alexis Sanchez.
He certainly wasn't in thge great form everyone was making him out to be. He was playing well but Rashford and Lingard were both playing better. If Martial put in a performance on the level Sanchez did against City or Tottenham people would still be talking about it.
Yes, it was not his best form, but it was still better than most of Sanchez's performances since his arrival. Furthermore, the team as a whole was playing good, entertaining football (with minor exceptions, of course), something we haven't really seen since Mourinho threw Sanchez into the mix and destroyed the feeble balance he had managed to achieve.
The football stopped being entertaining in November absolutely nothing to do with the arrival of Sanchez and everything to do with the absence and form of Pogba.
The media have really managed to brainwash people over this Sanchez transfer.
Nothing to do with what the media writes. Just my own impression.
Sanchez played 18 games and scored 3 goals and apart from City & Spurs in the cup semi they were largely forgettable as he struggled to find his role in the team.
He didn't have the impact we hoped when he came in we hoped he'd kick our season back into life after a dodgy December/January saw us drop right off the pace but it didn't really happen.
Martial great start to the season but like everyone hit a bit of a wall through the winter months and I think he threw the towel in a bit when Sanchez arrived as he knew his days were numbered.
Club say they aren't willing to sell him but guess his agent will still look to bring some attractive offers to the club to try and change their mind.
Sanchez wasn't by any means great but he was nowhere near as bad as people made out. He was also motm against Huddersfield Swansea and West Ham. So he was motm in 5 of his 18 games.
you know Sanchez does do, is look interested and try.
And like I said, Martial's deal was on the table way before Sanchez arrived. Him not signing is nothing to do with Sanchez.
He was bad. If you take his world class ability and what he can do, his performances for us were poor. He had his moments but not consistently and he drifted in and out of games.
Don't get me wrong it's hard to adjust sometimes to a new club especially when you move mid-season. He wasn't awful and he does try so so hard with his work rate but we were missing his sprinklings of magic that we know he has in his locker. Hopefully he will come back next season refreshed and really show us what he can do.

Plan mobilizacyjny "W" – plan mobilizacyjny Wojska Polskiego II RP w latach 1938–1939.

Geneza
Prace nad podstawami planu mobilizacyjnego rozpoczęły się latem 1935 r. Podstawowe założenia stworzył gen. bryg Wacław Stachiewicz, a zespół pułkownika dyplomowanego Józefa Wiatra opracował szczegółowe techniki, umożliwiające realizację tych zasad. Wszedł w życie 1 maja 1938 r. zastępując przestarzały plan mob. "S". W tym samym czasie, równolegle, opracowywano założenia rozbudowy i modernizacji sił zbrojnych oraz plan operacyjny "Wschód".

Plan "W" zakładał przejście sił zbrojnych lub ich części ze stopy pokojowej na wojenną. Opracowany w formie tabel, ściśle określał poszczególne czynności, których dokładne wykonanie, w określonym miejscu i czasie, określonymi środkami gwarantowało planowe przekształcenie jednostki wojskowej do stanu gotowości bojowej czasu wojny.

Założenia i zasady
Plan mobilizacyjny zakładał podział wszystkich mobilizowanych oddziałów i jednostek na trzy grupy, które mobilizowano dwojako – alarmowo i normalnie.

 Okres zagrożenia – działania o charakterze przygotowawczym, ułatwiające przeprowadzenie mobilizacji.
 Mobilizacja alarmowa – opierała się na imiennym powoływaniu rezerwistów, stawiennictwu z końmi i pojazdami mechanicznymi. Karty mobilizacyjne w czasie pokoju zdeponowane były w starostwach i posterunkach policji. W momencie mobilizacji starostowie i komendanci policji rozsyłali przechowywane karty.

 Mobilizacja normalna – system normalny opierał się na publicznym rozplakatowaniu obwieszczeń (także za pomocą prasy i radia) o zarządzeniu mobilizacji powszechnej.

Mobilizacja jednostek ON, ze względu na ich charakter lokalno-terytorialny odbywała się przez "skrzyknięcie", które mogło być zarządzone oddzielnie dla każdego oddziału.

Główne założenia Planu mobilizacyjnego "W":
 elastyczność i uniwersalność,
 szybkość mobilizacji,
 terytorialność mobilizacji,
 decentralizacja mobilizacji,
 jednolitość rozkazodawstwa,
 realność wystawienia zaplanowanych jednostek wojskowych,
 wystawienie maksymalnej liczby jednostek frontowych,
 tajność przygotowań mobilizacyjnych.

Grupa alarmowa
Mobilizacja oddziałów grupy alarmowej następowała przed ogłoszeniem mobilizacji powszechnej. Była to tzw. "mobilizacja cicha", która obejmowała prawie 3/4 wszystkich sił. Mobilizacja jednostek z tej grupy odbywała się tzw. systemem kartkowym, w którym poszczególne grupy oddziałów oznaczone były kolorami:

 Zielona: mobilizowana najszybciej. W jej skład wchodziły jednostki przygraniczne stacjonujące na wschodzie, zachodzie i północy kraju. Obejmowała KOP, Straż Graniczną i Policję Państwową. Oddziały tej grupy osiągały gotowość w czasie Z+12 do Z+48. Mobilizowane mogły być pojedynczymi garnizonami lub osobno w każdym DOK. Były pierwszą osłoną mobilizacji. Nie było w niej żadnych dywizji piechoty.

 Czerwona: obejmowała wielkie jednostki piechoty na granicy wschodniej. Mobilizowana w całości albo poszczególnymi Okręgami Korpusów.
  Brązowa obejmowała dwie podgrupy:
 pierwszy rzut kwater głównych armii i Samodzielnych Grup Operacyjnych (GO) z odpowiednimi formacjami łączności
 lotnictwo, jednostki OPL, pododdziały naprawy linii kolejowych łącznie z jednostkami wystawianymi przez Ministerstwo Komunikacji.
 Mobilizacja obu grup rozpoczynała się już w pierwszym, wstępnym okresie zagrożenia militarnego.

 Niebieska: wielkie jednostki piechoty stacjonujące na granicy z Niemcami. Zasady mobilizacji były identyczne jak grupy czerwonej.

 Żółta: "odwód osłony", obejmowała większość jednostek kawalerii, oddziały pozadywizyjne oraz część oddziałów piechoty, stacjonujących w głębi kraju, przeznaczone do wzmocnienia w II rzucie osłony dowolnej granicy.

 Czarna: dwie dywizje piechoty (26 i 28), brygada pancerno-motorowa (10 BK), jednostki pozadywizyjne oraz pododdziały i zakłady służb tworzące Korpus Interwencyjny, przeznaczony do wzmocnienia sił w strefie zagrożonej granicy.

I rzut mobilizacji powszechnej
I rzut mobilizacji powszechnej obejmował jednostki czynne i rezerwowe, które mobilizowały się na podstawie obwieszczenia o mobilizacji powszechnej. Termin ich gotowości bojowej wynosił zwykle od trzech do pięciu dni, a transporty koncentracyjne rozpoczynały się około czwartego dnia mobilizacji. W grupie tej znajdowały się dwie dywizje piechoty, reszta oddziałów nie zmobilizowanych alarmowo, część jednostek dyspozycyjnych artylerii, saperów i łączności oraz większość taborów.

II rzut mobilizacji powszechnej
II rzut mobilizacji powszechnej obejmował tylko jednostki rezerwowe. Mobilizacja tych jednostek rozpoczynała się siódmego dnia mobilizacji, a terminy gotowości bojowej osiągały między dziesiątym a dwunastym dniem mobilizacji.

I will try to attach a few drawing renders to this post. I used TC18.2 and FM10 to update our kitchen. We even went out and got it priced -- they Plugged it into 2020 Cabinet Software and fiddled a bit but could do no better with the configuration.
Thanks for posting those WillR. Did the appliances come with Furniture Maker as well?
Some symbols come with FM10, some I get out of Parametric Parts and some I get from the 3D bundle I just purchased from IMSI.
In any case I exploded them and re-coloured them.
Re drafted the kitchen quickly and priced it out for me. Of course the boss changed all the colors and they tried to re-work it -- but then went back to the original design.
Why can't you have the sink under the window?
I could -- but I am cheap -- I would have to splice the stove cable (illegal here) or replace it -- over $350. Besides all the venting is in the interior wall which we intend to change to a 2X6 wall to conform with building codes. The bathroom is on the other side and needs the same modifications.
We could switch the stove venting to a wall type vent -- but it is a north wall and we have recorded 45 below in winter (and 45 above in summer).
The exterior wall is a 6" -- but you need a 2" cutout out for about 6 studs and a corner group to reach the current venting.
Question: What is the use of 14/2 NMD7 wire in the basement rooms?
Answer: You drill holes through the top of the wall plate and use wire clamps on either side to hold up the wall.
Question: Why do you drive screws half way through drywall.
Answer: So the ceiling will stay up and be more secure.
Question: Why are nails only driven in half way.
Answer: I have not a clue on that one.
I could go on... but why bother?
The contractors hammer battery went flat!........ what shape should it be?
Wow.... but it is a north wall and we have recorded 45 below in winter (and 45 above in summer)......that's extreme!
Out of sight....out of mind??
You seem to understand perfectly!
We have our reasons -=- but yah gotta be there! If yah know what I mean!
I am agree with you guys these things are necessary for build any project. Planing is an important thing and project is small or big planing should be effective in every case.What is your opinion about it share your thinking about it. Am i right friends.
