The only workers who saw real wages go up over the past year were workers at the10th percentile of income, but only two cents an hour, from $8.36 an hour to $8.38. Two pennies! Don't spend it all in one place. That paltry increase happened because of minimum wage increases in 13 states. The lack of wage growth harms society and the economy in a whole host of ways. When workers don't have enough money in their pockets to spend on goods and services, businesses can't hire and they fail, which increases unemployment. Unable to keep up with the growing expenses of things like healthcare and college tuition, the middle class shrinks. For those less well off, life becomes a daily struggle for survival. The increasing gap between the very rich and everyone else produces a wide range of social ills, from mental illness to addiction to chronic diseases. The social fabric becomes unraveled.
Not a very promising reflection for Labor Day, is it?


As part of a series of scientific opinions on dietary references values (DRVs) for micronutrients for the European population, the EFSA Panel on Dietetics Products, Nutrition and Allergies (NDA) is reviewing the scientific evidence to set DRVs for sodium.
The protocol presented in this document describes the methodology that will be applied for: i) the assessment of possible relationships between sodium intake and health outcomes, including dose-response relationship(s), where applicable, and ii) the integration of different lines of evidence for setting DRVs. In particular, systematic reviews on the relationship between sodium intake and blood pressure, cardiovascular disease, bone mineral density, bone mineral content, and osteoporotic fractures will be conducted.
The protocol will be implemented in 2018. The outcome will be used by the NDA Panel to complete its scientific opinion on DRVs for sodium. A public consultation will be organised once the scientific opinion is complete (Spring 2019; https://www.efsa.europa.eu/en/calls/consultations). This protocol will be published as an Annex to the scientific opinion (Annex A).

Books by Dawn Brotherton have a wide-range in genre--mystery, romance, middle grade sports, and softball. Published by Blue Dragon Publishing, LLC, Williamsburg, VA.
Dawn drew inspiration for the Jackie Austin Mysteries from her time as one of the first female missile launch officers in the Air Force. While stationed at Whiteman Air Force Base, Missouri, she had a life-altering encounter with a stalker. Her friends found the story fascinating, but it wasn't until she able to move on from Whiteman that she could look back upon the experience and capture her thoughts and feelings in story form. Dawn is happy to report the murders in the book are fictionalized.
When she was ready to take a break from mystery writing, Dawn decided to try her hand at romance. She was still in the Air Force at the time and decided it wouldn't be prudent to use her real name. After her retirement in 2016, Dawn decided to reveal herself as Misty Austin. Worth the Wait is Dawn's first eBook global Bronze medal winner.
Softball is a family affair. Involved with softball since the age of nine, Dawn has played, coached, umpired, and kept score for many years. Now her two teenage daughters also play fastpitch. The Lady Tigers' Series evolved from an idea hatched by Dawn's elder daughter, and her younger daughter helps with content editing and back cover copy. Now Dawn has no choice but to keep it going.
Having kept score for her daughters' travel teams, Dawn decided to create her own, user-friendly softball scorebook. Her goal was to make it easy to read and spacious for notetaking while providing guidance for the novice scorekeeper. She field-tested it at tournaments throughout the season by asking for feedback from at various coaches and scorekeepers. Her Scoresheet gets a home run with customers after the first use.
Having given countless talks on publishing and writing, Dawn decided that she needed a leave-behind for anyone who decided they were ready to take the next step and become a published author. Drawing on both her successes and failures, she wrote a guide to help authors navigate the treacherous terrain that is the road the publishing.

Club career[edit]
Youth Career[edit]
Nobbs joined the Sunderland centre of excellence aged eight,[2] and was also attached to Middlesbrough as a youngster.[4] In the 2008–09 season, she emulated her father Keith Nobbs by representing Durham schools, while a pupil at Sedgefield Community College.[5]
Sunderland[edit]
2008–09[edit]
Upon turning 16 in December 2008, Nobbs began playing for the Sunderland first-team.[6] In her first season in senior football, Nobbs helped Sunderland win the FA Women's Premier League Northern Division and reach the 2009 FA Women's Cup final, where they were narrowly beaten by Arsenal.[7]
The following season, Nobbs was an "integral"[7] part of Sunderland's success as they finished fifth in their first season back at the top level. In November 2009, Nobbs scored against Arsenal, as Sunderland inflicted only the Gunners' second league defeat in more than six years.[8]
At the end of the season, Nobbs was named manager's and player's player of the year at Sunderland.[9] She also won the 2010 FA Young Player of the Year award.[6]
When Sunderland's bid to join the FA WSL failed, Nobbs was approached by several of the leading clubs in the country.[6] She eventually signed for Arsenal in August 2010.[10] With Arsenal awaiting the impending arrival of the FA WSL which would become a summer competition for the first six seasons, Nobbs continued to play for Sunderland in the 2010–11 Premier League.[11] Sunderland won the league that season but were not promoted as the WSL lineup was already confirmed.
Arsenal[edit]
Arsenal's general manager Vic Akers said of Nobbs: "Jordan is only 17 years old, but has already shown huge potential, and I'm confident that she will prove herself on the highest level, when the Champions League gets underway in September."[10]
Nobbs made her Arsenal debut in Serbia in September 2010, as a second-half substitute in a 3–1 UEFA Women's Champions League win over ZFK Masinac.[12] She scored her first goal in the home leg, the 6th goal in a 9–0 win.[13] She appeared in all eight of Arsenal's games starting the last five as Arsenal lost out at the semi final stage to Lyon. [14] On May 21 2011, Nobbs started for Arsenal as they won the Women's FA Cup final beating Bristol Academy 2–0 at the Ricoh Arena.[15] Nobbs played a key role in the inaugural WSL season as Arsenal won the title while playing 12 of the 14 games, making 9 starts and scoring 1 goal.[16] At the completion of the WSL, the rebranded League Cup was played with Nobbs starting the quarter and semi finals and coming on as a sub for Danielle Carter after 69 minutes in the final against Birmingham City which Arsenal won 4–1.[17]
Nobbs appeared in seven of Arsenal's eight Champions League matches scoring 4 goals in the process as Arsenal were knocked out at the semi final stage for the second consecutive season.[18] In April, Arsenal's defense of their WSL title got underway. Nobbs played in the match at Arsenal's Emirates Stadium against Chelsea,[19] a match that more than doubled the record WSL attendence of 2510 set in Chelsea's home match against Arsenal in 2011.[20] Nobbs featured in 13 of Arsenal's 14 matches as they retained the title without losing a match, Nobbs also improved her end product scoring 5 goals and finishing as the joint 6th top scorer in the league.[21]
For the third consecutive season, Nobbs featured as Arsenal reached the semi final stage of the Champions League but once again fell short of the final this time to Wolfsburg.[22] Nobbs scored in the 2013 FA Cup final as Arsenal beat Bristol Academy 3–0 at the Keepmoat Stadium in Doncaster.[23] Nobbs was ever present in an ultimately disappointing WSL campaign which saw them fail to qualify for the 2014–15 Champions League although their 2012 WSL win had already qualified them for the 2013–14 Champions League.[24] Nobbs finished as Arsenal's joint top scorer alongside striker, Danielle Carter with 6 goals.[25] Nobbs played every game as Arsenal won the WSL Cup beating Lincoln in the final at The Hive in Barnet.[26]
Nobbs played in Arsenal's first four Champions League matches, scoring 4 goals but then picked up a back injury[27] before the competition returned in March 2014 as Arsenal lost 3–0 on aggregate to WSL rivals Birmingham City.[28] Nobbs also missed the entirety of Arsenal's victorious FA Cup campaign.[29] She did not return during the summer season until July 6th for a substitute appearance in a WSL Cup tie with Chelsea which Arsenal won 3–0.[30] Without Nobbs, Arsenal had only won one of their first five games and were bottom of the league with just a point after four games. By the end of the season, despite only playing nine games, she had scored five goals which left her once again as Arsenal's joint top scorer with Casey Stoney.[31] Arsenal also reached the WSL Cup final with Nobbs playing the last two group matches and the semi final and the final which Arsenal lost 1–0 to Man City at Adams Park in High Wycombe.[32]
The 2015 WSL was another injury hit season for Nobbs, picking up a hamstring injury 10 minutes into a 0–0 draw with Chelsea on April 30th[33] just over a month before the 2015 World Cup in Canada which she did travel to but did not play as England finished 3rd.[34] On the post World Cup WSL resumption, Arsenal won five of their last seven matches but two consecutive defeats in August to Man City and Chelsea severely damaged Arsenal's title challenge. Even so, Nobbs claimed, after a 3–1 win over Sunderland that left Arsenal two points off the top, that their title challenge was still on despite having played a game fewer than their rivals, "Of course we can still win this title. You look at what happened last season where Liverpool were third and ended up winning it, so nothing's impossible. We're just going to do whatever we can to get as many points and as many goals as we can – never say die until the final whistle goes."[35] Chelsea and Man City won both their remaining games leaving Arsenal third in the WSL and once again missing out on Champions League qualification. Arsenal managed to salvage something from the 2015 season in the League Cup. Winning all 5 of the group games and then their three knockout games including victory over holders, Man City in the quarter finals, Arsenal were dominant champions with Nobbs scoring two goals in the final at Rotherham United's New York Stadium. Nobbs said, "It's been a tough time for us, It was disappointing to finish third in the league, so to win that trophy was crucial to us. We need to make sure we're not coming third in the league again next year. We don't feel like we've let anybody down, but we really needed to come home with that trophy to show to everyone that we're still fighting for every single thing. I'm very proud of what we've done as a team in this tournament and I was very determined to get a goal – luckily two of them have come off. The three goals we scored show how determined we were to win the trophy."[36] Nobbs was named Player of the Match in the League Cup final.[37][38]
In the FA Cup round of 16, Arsenal required penalties to advance with Nobbs scoring the decisive kick. Nobbs said, "We made life a bit harder for ourselves today but it's always nice to get the first game out of the way. We know we can play a lot better than that even though we've come away with a victory. Going behind was a blow but we still felt at half time that we could come back and win. Had we taken our chances, we could have settled it earlier. It was always going to be difficult and Birmingham are one of the most physical sides to play against. Going to extra time was harder on the legs but we showed our strength, we practice penalties because we know it could come down to this and there's experience in our side. You could almost guarantee that Fara (Williams) and Kelly (Smith) were going to score, so I wanted to score mine for the team and for all the hard work we have put in pre-season."[39] In May 2016, Nobbs featured in the final of the FA Cup of 2016 which Arsenal won against Chelsea by a scoreline of 1–0.[40] The WSL season was once again ultimately disappointing for Arsenal, finishing 3rd. Arsenal manager, Pedro Martinez Losa was full of praise for Nobbs after a good performance against Notts County in July, "There's no question about the importance of Jordan Nobbs and what level she can get to. We know her quality and because of how young she is she brings a lot of energy to the team."[41] Nobbs scored a stunning goal in the 4–0 win over Sunderland later that month. She said, "It was probably one of my best goals of the season but also for the team, the passing and movement, and it wouldn't have come off but for Dan's play, I'm glad to have got a goal but I was proud of the girls today for the way we played. Every game counts for us and we're creeping around the back door. We need the other teams to drop points but at the moment, we're putting in great team performances. We need to finish on a high so we must keep winning and score a lot of goals and continue not conceding."[42] Arsenal's slim title chances were ended in a 1–0 defeat to Man City in September, Losa highlighted Nobbs as the one bright point and said, "I think mainly Jordan Nobbs did very well for us in the game. I think she did a fantastic job. Obviously all the players want to do a fantastic job. There's not one player who wants to lose the ball or miss a pass. But I think Jordan is the one that is stepping up in terms of mentality, competitiveness and also football."[43]
Nobbs played in a 10–0 win over Tottenham in the last 16 of the FA Cup but did not score despite hitting the woodwork in the second half.[44] Due to the WSL switching from summer to winter a shorter season was played in the spring known as the Spring Series. Nobbs played every game as Arsenal made a slow start to the season with two draws against Sunderland and Liverpool. Nobbs scored in the 81st minute against Liverpool to make it 4–3 but a late equalizer denied Arsenal the win.[45] In a tight match against Man City, Nobbs scored a 75th minute free kick from 30 yards to clinch victory[46]. In the penultimate match of the season, Arsenal beat Reading 1–0 and after the match, Nobbs said, "I think overall it was a good performance. We should have scored more goals in the first half especially, and in the second half we were a bit more defensive. But, we also take that as a positive because it shows as a team we can change our game to suit the situation, and to make sure that we get all three points and secure the win. It wasn't because we were nervous, the manager gives us the instructions on how to play and how to defend, and that's the best way to deal with the scenario we are in. We followed that and we executed it well and managed to get the three points."[47] In the final game, Nobbs scored the second goal as Arsenal thrashed Bristol City 5–0 but despite going through the campaign unbeaten, Arsenal fell short of the title by a single point.[48] Nobbs finished as Arsenal's joint top scorer and joint third overall.
In November 2017, Arsenal were preparing for the arrival of new manager Joe Montemurro. After the 3–0 win over Sunderland, Nobbs said, ""The new manager is coming soon, and we are looking forward to it. We're looking forward to what he can bring, so that hopefully he will bring that winning mentality from Australia, and I'm sure he will."[49] On January 7th, Arsenal narrowly lost to Chelsea 3–2, after the match Nobbs said, "There are a lot of disappointed faces in the dressing room, but disappointed in a good way because we felt we deserved more from the game today. I think we put on a great performance but playing a top team like Chelsea, they have great counter-attacking ability and that's where they've scored their goals today. Sari had a great game and made some great saves, both keepers were great today and that shows the type of football we want to play, getting lots of shots and goals. I'm sure it was a good one to watch but we are disappointed with the result. There's more to come from this team, today was still a great performance and hopefully this is just a start to us getting back to being Arsenal and winning ways. We had the fight and the grit today to keep coming back and when you play the top teams like Chelsea that's what you have to do.[50] On April 24th Arsenal beat Liverpool 3–0 with Nobbs scoring two and bringing up her half century of goals for Arsenal. [51] The league season was once again ultimately disappointing as Arsenal missed out on Champions League football by a point to Man City. Nobbs started every game and scored four goals as Arsenal won the 2017–18 WSL Cup. Nobbs scored two goals in the 5–2 group win against Millwall, after the match Nobbs said, "We know that Millwall are a physical side, who put in some hard tackles, and we didn't give them many chances but when we did they scored from them. I think we need to tidy up at times, but we've also had two debutants on the pitch, who put in a good performance and that's great for us to show in this team. We've been working hard and we've got a lot of internationals as well and that fitness did kick in for us in the end, where we got a bit stronger. I definitely think we had a lot more joy in the second half with the ball, so that was a positive from us. I've working on my set-pieces a lot – I get to take them with England and here with Arsenal as well, so I've tried to up my game. Hopefully it showed today that I've been practicing a lot and I'm glad they went in."[52] Arsenal's final group match was an impressive 6–0 win over Watford, on Nobbs, Arsenal defender Jemma Rose said, "Jordan Nobbs is our playmaker on the ball, she dictates play and the tempo of the play and her and Jodie (Taylor) today showed their professionalism and experience ahead of the international break."[53] In the quarter final, Nobbs scored as Arsenal beat Sunderland 3–1, after the match Nobbs said, "I thought our first half performance was brilliant, we kept the ball we played good, football and we looked like Arsenal so it exciting for us. Second half we needed to better but hopefully that will come in time working with Joe (Montemurro) and getting ourselves back into good form. He (Montemurro) wants us to play good football, he wants us to enjoy the ball, play with freedom and he's putting the foundations in and we'll progress from there. Today's performance shows how much we've progressed and kept the ball, I think it was great from us and Joe is a fantastic asset and he wants to win as much as we do."[54]
International career[edit]
Nobbs was called into the England U-15 squad as a 12-year-old.[6] Aged 13, she captained England U-15s against Wales U-15s and scored in a 2–0 victory.[55] At the age of 14, Nobbs had progressed to captaining England's U-17 team.[56]
Nobbs then captained England to fourth place at the 2008 Under-17 World Cup in New Zealand.[10] In July 2009 Nobbs played a starring role as England won the 2009 European Under-19 Championship in Belarus, scoring in the final win over Sweden.[57]
In 2010, Nobbs helped England reach the final of the 2010 European Under-19 Championship in Macedonia, where they lost their title to France. Later that summer, Nobbs played in all three of England's matches at the 2010 Under-20 World Cup in Germany.
In June 2011, Nobbs was in the senior England party which visited 10 Downing Street ahead of the 2011 FIFA Women's World Cup.[58] She received her first call up to the senior England squad for the final UEFA Women's Euro 2013 qualifying match against Croatia at Banks's Stadium in Walsall on 19 September 2012.[59]
Nobbs (left) featuring for England in 2015
Nobbs made her senior international debut at the 2013 Cyprus Cup, scoring England's first goal in their 4–2 win over Italy on 6 March 2013.[60] She scored her next goal against Wales in October 2013's World Cup qualifier at The Den.[61] Nobbs was made England vice-captain at the Cyprus Cup in 2015, and led the team to winning the trophy as captain Steph Houghton was out injured. Nobbs was named in the squad for the Women's World Cup in 2015 but only played one match due to injury.
Vice-captain Nobbs was ruled out of the Women's World Cup in 2019 after rupturing her ACL in February.[62] Nobbs took on a role as a BBC pundit for the World Cup and as a columnist for 90 Minutes magazine.[63]

Slow (PG-13)

Pairing: Faramir/Éomer
Disclaimer: The characters do not belong to me, JRR Tolkien created them, I just borrow them, make them play a bit then put them back. This is for fun and enjoyment, no profits are made so please don't prosecute.
Note: My second fic, a fluffy one. And yes, Éomer does have it in him to be romantic!
The orgy was due for that night. Every grown man and woman in Rohan looked forward to it. They hadn't had an orgy in years, but now they really had something to celebrate. King Théoden, Théodred and Éomer had led the Rohirrim warriors to victory and they had chased away the evil creatures beyond the Black Gate. Those foul creations would surely return and strike again, but for the moment they were safe, for their alliance with Gondor had been enforced recently. Boromir, as Denethor's emissary, was in Rohan and he had led a vast company of his men to fight along the Rohirrim warriors.
In all the preparations and the stirrings at Edoras, two creatures were too miserable for the occasion. One of them was Éomer, who had suddenly found himself the focus of every female's attention and wished he had known evasive tactics that could provide some peace and quiet. Women –even the young maidens- scared and annoyed him.
The other miserable character was the young Lord Faramir from Gondor, who was present there as an accessory to his older brother's prestigious persona. In truth, Boromir had told him he didn't want to leave him at home with their mad father and the wiser captain had a point… but still the young man was bored to death, feeling neglected and ridiculed, every time someone addressed him as "little one".
And on top of it all, Éomer and Faramir were the only two creatures in Edoras who weren't allowed at the orgy, because they were not yet of the appropriate age.
Éomer did have to show up at the celebration, in the beginning, to receive the praise and the thanks of the other lords, for having secured another victory for Rohan. If he was such a revered hero, why wasn't he allowed to take even a small sip from Rohan ale?
An idea in mind, he pouted as his uncle, the King, told him to leave the party of the adults, but as soon as he was out of everyone's sight, he giggled impishly and headed directly for the cellars, thinking of all that exquisite and unguarded wine.
On the way there, on one of the halls he heard the sound of someone crying. It was coming from the reading room next to the library.
Padding into that direction as stealthily as he could, he listened to the voice and concluded that it had to belong to a young male, one whose voice hadn't finished breaking yet.
Standing at the door, he looked inside and he saw the Lord Faramir curled up on the window sill, holding a book in his lap and crying.
"Lord Faramir…" He spoke softly, not wanting to startle the Gondorian.
A pair of huge blue eyes rose and the auburn curls trembled as Faramir looked at him.
"Lord Éomer… I'm sorry… Have I upset you with my noise? I'll go to my room and keep the silence…I'm sorry for disturbing the peace."
They'd met before, they'd even fought side by side, but it had been in moments when they had to fill their appointed roles and there had been no time for getting to know each other.
Éomer felt a rush of sudden, unexplainable ache in his groin at seeing how frightened the other one was. And beautiful. Gods, he was exquisite! Just the way Éomer had ever pictured beauty: androgynous, lean, graceful, yet subtly manly.
He'd never enjoyed the company of maidens. His rank demanded that he be courteous with them, but sometimes his patience was challenged. And no, he'd never found round shapes and soft bosoms appealing. Now, as every cell in his body began drooling for the lithe Gondorian, he knew what he had been waiting for and what had kept him from mounting every willing mare in Rohan.
But he needed new tactics and a lot of balls if he was to seduce one that fascinated him so.
He was torn from his musings by the movement of a long, lean leg which Faramir placed on the ground to hop off the window sill and to leave.
Panicked that the lovely vision would disappear from his view, Éomer clutched at the other one's lean arm.
"Nay, do not leave… Faramir. I'm here as a friend, if you'll have me as one. I'd hate to watch you leave for I would again be left alone. I'd rather hear why you were crying and offer to alleviate whatever ails you."
Faramir looked at him wide eyed and then released an undignified giggle, quickly covering his mouth in an attempt to stifle it.
"I'm… honored you would have me as a friend, Lord Éomer…"
"Call me Éomer, I hate it when they get formal. And besides, you're coming to drink with me and I don't think we'll feel much like lords once we're lying in a heap under the table."
Surprised by his boldness, Éomer didn't wait for it to wear out before he took the young one's hand and dragged him towards the cellar. Just holding his hand was such a sweet sensation, Éomer noted. He was already drunk, but not from wine. The skin under his palm was warm, smooth and slightly moist, giving him a sensation he never wished to stop.
"So, fair Faramir, why were you crying? What brings the mighty warrior to tears?" He asked, only half-serious though.
"I… You'll find it stupid, but my brother told me I couldn't go to the orgy with him and so I went to the library to pass the time, and I found this book in Elvish… A romance, but it ended so badly…both lovers died in the end and were separated for ever."
The deep, wide patches of spring sky looked up at Éomer and although the Rohan lord was larger in build, he found himself trapped like a deer by that alluring gaze, so innocent, yet so knowing. He wanted desperately to learn every secret behind those twin blue orbs. Only then did the other information sink in.
"You can read Elvish?" He asked, and Faramir nodded with a slight blush.
Pretty, bright… and modest, too! Oh Valar, you spoil me! the young horselord thought.
They were still holding hands, and Éomer looked down at where his hand cradled Faramir's and then he looked up the thin arm, his own free arm reaching around Faramir and drawing him near for a hug.
His arms wrapped tightly around Faramir, Éomer nestled his nose in the other one's auburn curls and breathed in his scent. The moment was thick with an unspoken promise of tenderness, the very air around them had become thick.
"Hush, dear, do not fret…It was but a tale… elves are immortal, the heroes in your story probably still live happily together." Éomer heard himself speaking, softly and soothingly as if he were trying to reassure a restless colt. "Now come, my uncle's most precious wines await us, unguarded. And look –" Éomer said, producing a key from his pocket "guess who has a key to the cellar door?"
Seeing Faramir's beaming smile was worth every treason, lie or dishonor, or so it seemed to the Rohan lord. His eyes lingered on the beautiful young face a bit too much and he was caught staring.
"Éomer? Is there something wrong? Do I have an insect in my hair?" Faramir chirped.
Without removing his gaze from the delightful sight, Éomer replied slowly, as if he were already dead-drunk:
"Nay, all is fine, all is perfect in fact… you are lovely, did you know that?"
Faramir blushed a deep shade of red and looked away embarrassed. In the end, he dared a hesitant reply which he thought would cost him dearly:
"Nay, you would be the first to dare make such a risqué statement… father says I am a sorry excuse for a steward's son. Boromir is lovely, he's the one with the looks and the combat skills, not I."
"Does His Lordship the Steward of Gondor think himself as the icon of beauty on earth?" Éomer huffed, almost laughing. "I am sorry to say this, Faramir, but a father who disses his own progeny is an asshole. You can hold that against me all you want, I know what I see cannot be mistaken for ugly unless the beholder is a putrid, envious one."
"Such words you speak, Éomer… One would say you've already feasted on the ancient wines, or that you're out to seduce me…"
"Hush, dear friend, do not accuse me so soon… Let us enter the realm of delights and feast together – here is the door, just let me unlock it… there! And I promise not to make any more remarks about your sire, if you promise to smile for me more. You ARE delightful when you smile."
With those words, Éomer let Faramir into the cellar and locked the door behind them, putting the key back into the pocket where it had come from. Taking his hand again, he drew him along the long rows of barrels and they almost ran down the hall, their footsteps resounding in the vast damp room.
It turned out Théoden's wines were kept under lock for a reason.
The red, blood-like thick liquid tasted divine. Faramir had never sampled it before, so he took a first experimental sip, rolled it across the entire length of his tongue, then pressed it to his palate, allowing a small fraction of it to slide down his throat. He sat down on a small chair near a window. The sensation was frighteningly intense. He shut his eyes, trying to associate images, words, textures to the mouthful of happiness he held. His head fell back and his whole body went boneless as he swallowed and, without even being aware of it, he moaned. Opening his eyes lazily, he searched for the glass and found it on the table. He sat up to reach for it, but his wrist was caught by Éomer's hand.
Éomer was still staring agape at the Gondorian. One of his eyebrows arched up and remained there, almost hidden by the hairline. His jaw dangled. He'd never seen such a wanton display of sheer pleasure at such a common treat.
His body was ablaze and his mind quickly followed. If he can take so much pleasure from one small sip of wine… What can he make of a kiss? Or more?
He realized he was clutching at the other's wrist. Releasing it, he said:
"Let me… I like seeing your enthusiasm." He handed Faramir the glass, letting their fingers touch.
He was almost tempted to stay away from the stuff himself, just to relish the sight of his new friend. But then Faramir took another sip, swallowed more determinedly and then emptied the glass in one gulp. His eyes scintillated with pleasure now, and they read "more" loud and out.
Éomer refilled his glass and took a serious dose of the drink himself.
It seemed that hours and days passed by, but in fact they were long blissful minutes. Éomer was bathing in Faramir's mere presence in the same room with him.
The silence was broken by the younger man's lazy voice.
"Éomer, what do you think they're doing upstairs…at the orgy?"
Éomer snapped out of his reverie and a wide grin spread over his face.
"Want me to make an educated guess?"
Faramir nodded and the glint of a promise shone in his eyes. "If you wish…" He said and slumped back into the chair.
"I wouldn't be too wrong to assume the mighty men of Rohan and the worthy emissaries from Gondor are riding the women. And some outstandingly appealing boys too." He said, his eyes only half open, but following Faramir closely, like a cat deceiving its prey.
"Boys? Can they do that?" Faramir asked after a few seconds in which he appeared to be weighing the information.
Éomer snorted.
"A man of Rohan can ride anything he pleases, from cats to Uruk-Hai. And get a kick out of doing it."
Faramir laughed. And laughed. He laughed so hard and for so long that Éomer forgot all about feeling insulted and worried that his friend might choke.
Then Faramir was serious again and sat up in the chair.
"How about love, Éomer? Do men of Rohan know love? Do they court and stalk their heart's desire and make it feel loved like none other on Arda? Do they make promises and do they keep them?"
The small speech caught the young horse lord unprepared. He stammered.
His guest got up and came near his chair.
"If men of Rohan know not of love, they could still be taught." Faramir said with a smile, touching two of his fingers to Éomer's forehead, then leaving stealthily.
Éomer snapped once more out of the strange reverie which he now knew was caused by Faramir. He locked the room sloppily and rushed down the corridor in search of his guest. He nearly bumped into him, as the Gondorian was in no hurry to leave… merely luring him.
They walked side by side until they reached the gardens. They walked among the trees until they were fairly away from the castle and sat down on the grass.
"You speak of love, Faramir. Do you believe in it? Have you ever seen it, in these times when all one can see around is war and death?" Éomer spoke.
Faramir laid down on the grass and his eyes reflected the sky above. His lips unlocked as if to say something, but he remained quiet for a while.
"I do not see love. I feel it. It will change the future of our race someday not far from now. " He spoke. "But for the moment, I can smell lust, pouring through your every skin cell."
Éomer was at an impasse. He was the oldest of the two, but he felt strangely maladroit in Faramir's company. He knelt on the grass near his friend and bent over him, chasing away an insect which had conveniently climbed on a white hand. They looked each other in the eyes, hundreds of stories and secrets being exchanged between them.
"My lust… Do you want it, Faramir?" He asked, in dire need to end this lengthy seduction.
Faramir didn't answer, seemingly unaware of Éomer speaking near him. Instead, entranced, he licked his lips and dragged a hand lazily down the length of the other's chest.
Éomer would have been decent about his approach, he had intended it…but the touch was so light, yet it burned and made him quiver. He found himself crashing onto his friend, his elbows propping him only millimeters away from Faramir's face.
Right before greedy lips caught his, he had the very distinct feeling that he was feeling exactly what a moth felt when nearing the flame.
As hands tunneled through his hair and lips coaxed his quite violently to respond, it dawned on him that Faramir was desperate for this… his kiss… his touch… anything he was willing to give. But not desperate from being deprived of it too long. Desperate to be shown, to be taught and to be claimed.
Not that his was a vast experience, just that on some occasions he'd found it impossible to escape the advances of certain so called-maidens.
But he was a man from Rohan. He could do this. He could do anything… and anyone, for that matter. In his mind, he even allowed himself to laugh at Faramir's intricate game before giving in so blatantly. It was rather endearing. But Faramir, to him, was still a being of wonder, and he could not smother his feeling of awe.
He pulled back only enough to whisper to Faramir:
"Slowly, like a wine to be savored…"
Faramir caught the drift and relinquished command of the kiss to his friend.
Kissing Faramir was definitely better than kissing women. Éomer didn't have to think it, the heat pooling in his groin spoke enough compelling arguments.
Age-old wine, licorice and acacia was what Éomer sampled from Faramir's relenting mouth. Like the three notes of a perfume, coming together to form an exquisite, unique aroma, that which was only essential to Faramir and to none other intoxicated Éomer beyond anything he'd ever tasted, smelled or even imagined
"I…want…you."Éomer breathed out in the other one's open mouth.
"I've felt it since you came to the library." Faramir gasped. "Yes."
"Nay, 'tis not what I meant. I want ALL of you." Éomer said and closed his lips over those of his not so struggling captive. "I want your days, your nights, your thoughts, your fears… your body…and I will take every single bit of you as you decide to give it. Like the elves say, I've recognized my fate in you."
Faramir looked up at him.
"Gods, Éomer, we are not yet of age and you speak such things!"
Said horse lord looked dejected, already imagining the next line…the rejection.
"…But what you say is most enchanting and the prospect of being yours excites me." Faramir purred.
Éomer returned to lying half on top his new… mate?
"Then does this mean you'll have me?"
His question was met with hips rubbing on his and hands anchoring themselves in his mane.
"Aye, I will… now kiss me, for Eru's sake!"

A most beautiful story! I loved it :)

Aye, now that I think of it, it does end at a rather unfortunate time and at least Eomer if not both young lords is stuck with a dire case of hihi "blueballs". So as soon as I return, I will see to it that everyone is happy and…sated . Also, I'm surprised I could write a text with Eomer that didn't turn out NC-17. :)
Thank you for reading, hugs!

Full Version: Loading a model within a model.
This doesn't seem to be working for me. $this->load->model('whatever'); will work but no $this->whatever reference is created.
Not quite sure what your getting at, but I have managed to load a model within a model e.g.
* @param integer $id A User ID.
That doesn't seem to work for me. I believe what's going on is that loading a model using $this->load->model is actually creating the original reference in the CI instance and these references are only copied over (localized) to the model upon construction. Therefore, any other model loaded post-construction of the subject model will only have a reference in the CI instance (controller) and not in the model itself. What could be happening in your case is that these models were already previously loaded and so the references have already been localized within the subject model (on construction).
My workaround fixes this problem, but if something else is going on here, perhaps it is unnecessary.
Ok I get you, I only load my models within the model constructor and thats why it works in my case, if I moved the load outside the constructor it probably wont work.. Thanks for the info.
No, I believe it works in your case because those models were already previously loaded in your CI instance (somewhere in your controller), before the construction of the subject model. At least this has been my experience.
Quote: Ok I get you, I only load my models within the model constructor and thats why it works in my case, if I moved the load outside the constructor it probably wont work.. Thanks for the info.
Is this behavior you would expect?
That is the behavior I would like, however it is not working. And I'd like to avoid rewriting code.


Want to Inherit the Debts of your German Relatives?
Of course not! But inheriting debt from a family member who lives abroad is a real risk under German law!
The concept of inheriting debts from deceased relatives stuns people, especially lawyers, from common law jurisdictions like Britain or the USA. There the basic rule is: Personal debt dies with the borrower. The executor of the estate will attempt to sell whatever collateral there is and pay off the creditors to the extent possible. All remaining debt disappears with the deceased, i.e. everything else gets written off as a loss (unless, of course, someone co-signed for a loan or agreed to act as a guarantor).
The German concept of succession is, however, entirely different. The principle of automatic and total succession (more here) means that the entire estate, all assets and all debts automatically pass onto the heir (or the community of heirs if there is more than one beneficiary).
In real life, of course, Germans are also not too keen on the idea of inheriting the debts of their beloved relatives. But, in contrast to heirs and beneficiaries in Britain and the USA, their German counterparts must actively renounce the inheritance to avoid becoming personally liable (details on how to do this here).
And, to make matters worse, there is a dangerously short deadline for this: 6 weeks from the day one is informed to be an heir (6 months if the heir lives outside Germany). And the renunciation must be formally declared before a German notary, German probate court or a German consular officer abroad. This means: It is a pain in the neck and it costs money.
What is even more annoying: If someone renounces his/her inheritance, then the German probate court will contact the next in line of succession. We have had cases where a dozen people had to formally sign their renunciation document before it was clear that no one was interested in the indebted German estate. It is, however, a necessary step. Otherwise you may get sued – years later – by creditors of your late parent, sinbling or uncle. Or even worse: the creditor may already possess a binding German court order against your deceased relative. This court order can now – after the renunciation deadline has expired – be used against you. No appeals allowed!
So, whatever you do: Do not simply ignore a letter coming from German probate court informing you that you have inherited in Germany. Instead, make sure you quickly find out if the estate may be indebted and then act accordingly.

Gov Inuwa visits President Buhari on issues affecting Gombe
North EastNews
By Halima Abdulkadiri Last updated Sep 3, 2021
GOVERNOR MUHAMMADU INUWA YAHAYA OF GOMBE STATE
By Matthew ELOYI, Abuja
Gombe State Governor Muhammadu Inuwa Yahaya has urged Federal Government to Fast-track Oil Exploitation Activities in Kolmani, and Implementation of National Livestock Transformation Plan at Wawa-Zange in the State.
The Governor stated this while resenting the Master Plan of Muhammadu Buhari Industrial Park to build in Gombe State by his administration to President Muhammadu Buhari at the Presidential Villa, Abuja on Wednesday.

This was contained in a press statement by the Director-General, Press Affairs, to Governor Mr Ismaila Uba Misilli, who said President Buhari pledged the support of the federal government to the governor towards sustaining efforts at maintaining peace and security and enhancing socio-economic development.
he said the Governor told State House correspondents that he intimated the President on the award of contract for the construction of an Industrial Park which is named after the President.
He said when completed, the park will not only boost the economic standing and stability of the State but will create jobs for the teeming youths within and outside the State.
Governor Inuwa Yahaya explained that the issue of security was discussed in view of the fact that Gombe State has been playing a comforting role in housing Internally Displaced Persons IDPs from Boko Haram inflicted states of Borno, Yobe and Adamawa state thus putting a strain on the State's social infrastructures.
In his words, "For us we don't put them in IDP camps; we allow them to settle within our people and they have already acclimatized and are staying with our people but that puts a lot of strain on our resources, schools, hospitals and other social facilities and amenities and equally, security management is becoming an issue not only that the de-radicalization centre which is used in rehabilitating and integrating those that surrender from insurgency is located in Gombe and since 6 years now that the facility has not been fully taken over by the Federal Government."
The Governor observed that the take-over of the NYSC camp by the Federal government has impacted negatively on the State's ability to attract more Corps members to the State due to lack of a spacious Orientation camp and therefore wants the Federal Government to reimburse the State with the equivalent amount so that it can construct another one.
The governor also tabled before the president, the issue of Wawa-Zange grazing reserve and the need to fast-track work, especially given the fact that it is the largest gazetted reserve in Nigeria with over 144, 000 hectares and the one that is supposed to be the pilot project for the national livestock transformation programme of the federal government.

He said with the return of herdsmen in multitudes to the northern part of the country following the anti-grazing position of some southern states, there is no better time than now to fast-track the Wawa-Zange project to avoid rancour.

Le cento pianure dello spirito () è un trattato di argomento religioso attribuito al maestro Sufi  Ansari di Herat. È una delle pietre miliari della scuola giuridica islamica hanbalita, nota per essere fortemente tradizionalista e per essersi opposta in maniera feroce agli influssi della filosofia greca.

Struttura
Il libro è diviso in 101 capitoli, ciascuno perfettamente diviso in parti simmetriche. Ogni pianura si apre infatti con una breve introduzione, con annessa citazione Coranica. Pone poi una tripartizione del capitolo, seguita da un'ulteriore tripartizione di ciascuna parte.

Il libro, che parte con la pianura "della Conversione", culmina con la centesima, della "Permanenza in Dio". Certamente a significare un lungo percorso che, partendo da un profondo cambiamento, non può che portare all'obiettivo di ogni sufi: l'autoannientamento (Fana, la 99) per la successiva unione mistica con la divinità.

Vi è anche un centunesimo capitolo, la pianura "dell'Amore", aggiunta a posteriori da uno studente. L'amore costituisce un elemento che, soprattutto per la concezione sufi, va oltre anche la stessa unione con Dio. I sufi prediligerebbero infatti un'etica meno legale e più sentimentale, essendo l'amore una componente primaria, sebbene subordinata, di Allah.

In questa ultima "pianura", inoltre, viene stesa un'ode in memoria del maestro. Fatto che conferma la posteriorità.

Storia
Parte di una ricchissima letteratura sufi, il Sad Maydan si pone all'interno della trattazione delle cosiddette tariqat, o le vie spirituali tipiche dell'ascetismo musulmano che avrebbero dovuto portare l'adepto della confraternita a entrare in simbiosi con Allah. Ognuna delle pianure costituirebbe infatti una tappa del viaggio del mistico.

Il libro differisce dalla tradizionale forma trattantistica, oltre che per la quasi perfetta simmetria, anche perché non sarebbe il risultato di una rigorosa stesura di informazioni, quanto una raccolta di appunti. I maestri sufi erano infatti soliti porre dei bolli sugli appunti di studenti particolarmente veloci e diligenti e poi usare gli stessi come supporto Mnemonico. Il genere era tuttavia comune un po' a tutto il mondo delle confraternite Sufi, i cui maestri erano soliti studiare per i loro adepti percorsi di natura simile. Ciò per cui differisce l'opera di Ansari è indubbiamente la quantità di tappe, sicché opere simili arrivavano a contare 7, 12 al massimo 40 pianure.

Jacques Cousteau's Grandson Is Going on an Underwater Adventure
Fabien Cousteau, grandson of famed oceanographer and filmmaker (and wearer of red caps) Jacques Costeau has embarked on a 31-day mission aboard the Aquarius Reef Base, a small laboratory located 60 feet below the surface in the Florida Keys.
By Danielle Wiener-Bronner
Fabien Cousteau, grandson of famed oceanographer and filmmaker (and wearer of red caps) Jacques Costeau has embarked on a 31-day mission aboard the Aquarius Reef Base, a small laboratory located 60 feet below the ocean's surface in the Florida Keys.
Jacques Costeau. AP
Fabien and a crew of five others will spend their time in the underwater lab focusing on climate change and ocean acidification, ocean pollution, and shrinking biodiversity as a result of resource overconsumption, among other things. Mission 31 overlaps with the 50th anniversary of Jacques's own unprecedented underwater living experiment aboard Conshelf Two, and will also expand on that expedition in a number of ways. According to the Mission 31 website:
Mission 31 will broaden the original Cousteau experiment by one full day, 30 more feet of saturation and will broadcast each moment on multiple channels exposing the world to the adventure, risk and mystique of what lies beneath.
It will also break some ground of its own:
This will be the first time a mission of this length has taken place in the Aquarius lab, the only underwater marine habitat and lab in the world, located 9 miles off the coast of Key Largo, Fla., and operated by Florida International University.
Cousteau, who took the plunge on Sunday, said that he and his crew expect to miss the sun but are otherwise looking forward to the mission. "I imagine we'll want to stay down once we get comfy down there," he said, adding, "we won't want to come back up to the surface because it's such a magical place."
Cousteau also said he's looking forward to being in touch with us landlubbers while living in the sea. You can watch the mission live via a web cam, posted on the mission website, and he's already started tweeting from on board the lab:

Amazon Stock on the Defensive After Mixed Guidance
By Alan Farley
Amazon.com, Inc. (AMZN) is trading sharply lower in Friday's pre-market after missing first quarter 2020 profit estimates by a wide margin. The company earned $5.01 per share during the quarter, while revenues rose 26.4% year over year to $75.74 billion, beating $74.15 billion guidance. Amazon issued in-line second quarter guidance but warned that operating income will drop sharply because COVID-19 related costs are expected to rise from $600 million in the first quarter to over $4 billion.
Demand for essential goods surged in early March when the pandemic shutdown forced customers to stay at home, catching the retail giant off-guard. Warehouse capacity was expanded at a rapid pace to deal with the order flow, at the expense of discretionary goods, which saw a sales decrease over the same period. Grocery volume through the wholly owned Whole Foods increased substantially as well, also raising operating costs.
The second quarter investment has a dark side because bankruptcies are increasing throughout the retail space, reducing alternatives to Amazon and other e-commerce portals. The company will pick up market share as a result of those closed storefronts, increasing its stranglehold on an industry that thrives through competition. This domination could reactivate worldwide investigations into monopolistic practices and eventually provoke regulatory action.
The stock broke out to a new high in mid-April after mounting February resistance at $2,185. The overnight sell-off has settled around $2,350, within a two-week trading range between Thursday's all-time high at $2,475 and the April 21 low at $2,280. A range breakdown in coming session would initiate a critical test at the top of the breakout, potentially triggering a pattern failure that sets off major sell signals.
AMZN Long-Term Chart (1999 – 2020)
TradingView.com
A vertical uptrend topped out above $110 in 1999, yielding a failed 2000 breakout attempt, followed by a steep decline that ended in the single digits after the Sept. 11 attacks in 2001. A two-legged recovery wave topped out within 12 points of the prior peak in 2007, giving way to a sell-off that held well above the 2001 and 2006 lows. That resilience attracted buying interest into the new decade, completing a historic breakout that eased quickly into a rising channel pattern.
The rally entered a more vertical trajectory in 2016, generating a 2018 channel breakout and buying spike that ended at $2,050 in September. It sold off more than 700 points into year end and turned higher into 2019, stalling within 14 points of resistance in July. The stock cleared the 2018 and 2019 highs in February 2020, but the breakout failed immediately, ahead of a steep downdraft that got bought aggressively in the second half of March.
AMZN Short-Term Chart (2018 – 2020)
The bounce completed a round trip into the February high on April 13, yielding an immediate breakout and rally that posted an all-time high this week. The red line at $2,185 now marks the first major support level during a pullback, with a violation generating a failed breakout. The black line at $2,050 marks the longer-term interface between bull and bear power, with a breakdown potentially ending the multi-year uptrend.
The on-balance volume (OBV) accumulation-distribution indicator highlights broad strength, breaking out with price to an all-time high in April. Watch OBV closely if bears maintain control in the next few session because a breakdown through the red line could precede a price violation, offering an early warning signal to take appropriate action. Even so, bulls are fully in control right now, raising the odds that the stock will recover quickly from this morning's sell-the-news reaction.
Amazon stock is trading lower by about 5% on Friday after a mixed first quarter earnings report and warning about second quarter operating costs.

South Terminal is located inside the Hurricane Barrier and has over 25 acres of marine industrial land, with a 1,600-linear foot bulkhead and depths of 20 feet, for offloading fish and seafood directly into the fish processing plants that occupy most of the site. These modern buildings are where fishing boats are unloaded. Workers fillet, clean, weigh, and package the seafood. Products are then shipped by truck and air freight around the world. The terminal also provides transient berthing for commercial fishing vessels unloading catch or laying over for one or two days. Fees to maintain the bulkhead are set by the NBPA Commission and collected by the Financial Manager.
Homer's Wharf houses some of the waterfront's seafood processing companies and provides berthing for commercial fishing vessels.
Leonard's Wharf is home to fishing boats and the majority of the Port's lobster boats. The wharf is named for Samuel Leonard, founder of a lumber company located on the site in 1840. Lumber from the East Coast and the Pacific Northwest was off-loaded and planed in an adjacent mill.
Steamship Wharf was rebuilt and doubled in length in 1979 and today houses many fishing and lobster boats. Expansion is possible but limited by its proximity to State Pier and the large vessels there impeded maneuvering capabilities. This historic pier, which is included on the National Register of Historic Places, once served as a terminal for ferries operating between New Bedford, Martha's Vineyard, and Nantucket, and for service from Boston, New York City, and New London.
Coal Pocket Pier is used for berthing fishing and lobster boats. During the golden age of whaling, this short pier was a receiving point for thousands of casks of whale oil. The pier got its name in the late 19th century when coal was stored in tall containers, or pockets, until being shipped out by wagons, and later, by trucks. Due to the Pier's size and orientation, expansion is impossible.
Fisherman's Wharf was originally two piers – City Pier #3 and #4. The wharf provides additional berthing for the New Bedford fishing fleet and is currently overcrowded with limited space for expansion. The wharf has served a variety of vessels from the early whalers in the 1800s to modern fishing draggers and scallopers in the Port today. Also docked at Fisherman's Wharf are the Alert (II), a passenger ferry to Cuttyhunk Island, and the Acushnet, Whaling City Tour's vessel providing harbor tours and launch and water taxi service.
South Terminal Offloading Docks consists of a 1,600-linear foot bulkhead that supports the off-loading of fish product. The facility also supports eight fish processing houses.


Scientific research can be thought of as a process of asking questions of Nature. Perhaps it's worth exploring that concept in a little more detail.
It is true that many scientific advances have started with a question. And the process of research can be considered a way of asking Nature questions. But the kind of questions that we can ask Nature are very specific.
First, the obvious: Nature doesn't have a voice. Interviews are out. So we need to look for evidence instead.
The language that I'm using resembles a criminal investigation, and that's deliberate. Scientific research is in fact very much like forensic work. We look for evidence, we analyse things that we observe, we try to find patterns and unravel processes. Forensics is all about mechanisms: how the crime was perpetrated. However, there's usually an accompanying part of a criminal investigation, and that is the literal question-and-answer stuff. By interviewing a suspect, the investigator can try to unravel the question of motive. Forensics, for all its strengths, is powerless to address "why" questions. This, again, is like science.
I realise that yesterday's post spent a long time dwelling on unpleasant aspects of the animal kingdom, but I don't take a negative view of nature. On the contrary, I am continually astounded by the splendour of the natural world. As but one example of just how awesome Creation is, let me offer a set of pictures of goats.
