Realizing he must have unnerved the person before him, Puck quickly shifted shapes, melting into his favored human form - a persona of sorts he had created quite some time ago.

"I'm sorry. I hope you'll forgive my rudeness," the blonde man in a navy suit, red tie, and round glasses remarked. "I just happened be to watching you for a little while and noticed a few of your personal effects with your names on them." He dipped his head before extending a hand without smiling. "Owen Burnett. Pleased to make your acquaintance."

Upon hearing Russell's reply, however, the corners of Owen's mouth upturned ever so slightly. "I see. Well, then...what might you recommend? Do you have any favorites yourself? Or a menu, perhaps?"

"I realize that," Kit answered with another grin, "But bragging or being arrogant isn't the same as being confident. I don't think you give yourself enough credit. Do you?" Continuing to sketch, he nodded slowly at the mention of some nice coffee places to hang out at. "Sounds good to me. I can wait until you get off work." Upon noticing Russell's sudden change in color, Kit laughed again and winked before answering the question asked of him. "Thanks. I've been drawing since I was three, but it's nothing special. I just know how to draw what I see; no real critical thinking or imagination behind it. Still, it's a way of capturing someone in more than just my memory and examining the features that make them identifiable as a whole, so it's nice to do sometimes." He grinned back up at Russell.

"What about you, angel-face? Got any hobbies you particularly enjoy doing when you're not working?"

"Well, heh, I uh, I try not to brag or uh, or big myself too much or, or anything," Russell said, "But yeah, I, I get what you mean. Everyone does have, have something amazing about them."

Even if he found that hard to believe for himself a lot of the time. Self esteem was one thing he still had trouble conjuring up.

"And that, that is also true," Russell agreed before his own eyes widened in some surprise on hearing that. A date? That had literally just met. Then again, it didn't necessarily have to mean romance, right? It could be just to get to know each other better and perhaps become buddies, "Well, uh... heh, I suppose that, that could be nice to do. I know some, some nice coffee places to hang, hang out at."

That would be good, right? Hopefully.

"Oh uh..." his cheeks turned just a little bit redder. Wow, he was pretty flirty, wasn't he? Or maybe that was just his way of being friendly and Russell needed to stop being so presumptuous, "Heh, th-thanks. I uh, I work with, with what I got."

He thought for a moment.

"How, how long, how long have you been, been an artist for? You, you seem like you're, you're real dedicated to it."

Fantasy sports community after the reality television star won $1 million in a DraftKings NFL contest over the weekend.

Roper Tolbert confirmed on Twitter that she won the top prize of $1 million in DraftKings’ $2.25 million Fantasy Football Millionaire Maker competition, which was based on the four NFL playoff games held on Saturday and Sunday.

Roper Tolbert’s winning entry scored 180.78 points to eke out a win over the second-place finisher, a competitor by the user name “spclk36” whose entry tallied 178.16 points, good enough for $100,000. Roper Tolbert finished fourth on season 19 of “The Bachelor,” and she would later appear on “Bachelor In Paradise,” where she met her husband, Tanner.

This Bachelorette and her husband and both max enter the milly and not share Qbs?,” said Twitter user “gravycakesDFS.” “Her insta and twitter don’t have a single sports post prior either.”

What that poster and others are referring to is data indicating that Roper Tolbert and her spouse show little overlap across their 300 entries at the vital quarterback position.

Collusion Calls Roper Tolbert’s $1 million win has left a bad taste in some DraftKings player mouths, with many saying collusion between the winner and her husband was at play.

For example, Tanner reportedly used Saints quarterback Drew Brees and the Seahawks’ Russell Wilson on 108 of his 150 entries, while his wife didn’t use those stars in any of her lineups. Conversely, the winning wife used the Texans’ DeShaun Watson and the Titans’ Ryan Tannehill a total of 96 times, while her husband didn’t “draft” those players at all.

Internet chatter was strong enough to spark a response from Boston-based DraftKings.

“We take the integrity and fairness of our contests very seriously and are looking into this matter,” said the company.

Still, Roper Tolbert garnered plenty of online support, particularly when posting a tweet revealing that she opted to use Seahawks wide receiver DK Metcalf in some of her lineups against her husband’s advice. Metcalf, a rookie out of Ole Miss, had seven catches for 160 yards and a touchdown, the equivalent of fantasy sports gold at that position.슬롯사이트

Odd Timing Allegations of collusion against DraftKings come less than two weeks after the company announced a merger with investment firm Diamond Eagle Acquisition Corp. (NASDAQ:DEACU) and SBTech, setting the stage for an initial public offering (IPO) later this year.

DraftKings and rival FanDuel dealt with a major scandal in 2015 when then-DraftKings employee Ethan Haskell, who had knowledge of users player selections, would use that information for profit on FanDuel because he was forbidden from participating in his employer’s contests.

That controversy caught the eye of federal regulators, sparked class action lawsuits, and got the two daily fantasy companies banned in Nevada.

Rook casually tucked some sage in her jacket's pocket on the way out. "You should have grabbed those headphones with cat ears you had last time." "I've had enough of that for a while." Lucien replied, retrieving the abandoned cane from the chain of hearts that hung from the ceiling. He should probably return that, he supposed. "Right." There goes her attempt to cheer her friend up. She hardly needed to know which way to go, her marks went off the second she stepped foot outside. "I got you a spare helmet. Climb on– Oh, wow. The ghosts are pissed." And rightfully so. Watching Antonio at work wasn't putting any of those wandering souls at ease, especially after having narrowly escaped that before. But they had to listen to their leader, who was just trying to protect them. Thus, the walls kept watching. They knew she would be here soon.

"That's fair enough," Leofric said. Although he could respect the effort on Rook's part, it just didn't seem to be a good moment to try and lighten the mood.

Leofric couldn't help but stop and double take a bit at the feelings that he caught. Antonio had certainly been taking as much as he could in such a short time.

"Go ahead and ride on," Leofric said, as he stretched his limbs out in prepration, "William and I will be right behind you. Abnormal speed is helpful there."

Antonio had just found a new prey to snack on. The younger man had a soul that called out to him in a different way than the other souls had. There was something intriguing about it.

It was easy to pretend to be helpless in order to ensnare him, silence the blond's stammer as he tried to ask what the matter was. Then while he was subdued, Antonio took a larger fragment of his soul. The glowing blue wispy lump in his hand looked delightful and he didn't hesitate in swallowing it up.

Oh... Oh, this was amazing! He had no idea why, but he felt energy rush through his body as soon as it was forced down to become part of him instead. His body crackled. His teeth had grown sharp. His claws were stuck out, and he laughed. The ears that jutted out of the top of his head were large and almost pointed. His face had grown almost skeletal, angular cheeks sallow, and his eyes were a complete black that seemed to swallow all light.

He let go of Russell, who simply collapsed to the ground like a puppet with its strings cut, his ashen skin practically reflecting the light above, and he barely moved a muscle. His blue eyes were dull and half lidded, like he hadn't slept for weeks. For anyone who could see, a blue glowing crack marked his chest, from where the soul had been pulled from. Thankfully, he was still breathing.

"This... this was what I needed! You're a good man. Didn't even hesitate to help someone. It's a shame it led to this, for you at least."

"I suppose some have a redemption arc, and I suppose some go in the opposite direction," Antonio said, "On this occasion, you are the better person than me, I won't deny that."

He chuckled a little bit.

"Of course not," Antonio said, drumming a set of sharp claws on the top of his walking cane. When had they appeared? "You think I'm going to miss a rare chance to be something more than what I am now?"

Despite all of his efforts. It appeared that Lucien just couldn't be swayed. Antonio could see it in his face, especially his eyes.

"Heh, of course not," Antonio replied then, "Well, you've made your choice. Seeing as I can't have your mind..."

The green swirling mists disappeared from his eyes, and they instead turned a solid black, like that of a long abandoned tunnel. His teeth appeared sharper, and green energy formed around his hands. He then held one of that out towards Lucien, who might have started to feel a horrible stretching sensation inside of his chest.

"I'm going to have your soul."

Storia di Musica #100 - Miles Davis - Kind Of Blue, 1959

Per la centesima (però!) Storia di Musica, ho scelto quello che unanimemente è considerato IL disco jazz. Un disco che nelle sue 6 tracce compie una rivoluzione, l’ennesima del suo autore, che nella vita non ha mai avuto paura di provare a cambiare le regole del gioco. Miles Davis, il geniale trombettista figura centrale della cultura del ‘900, a capo di un dream team del jazz composto da Julian “Cannonball” Adderley (sax contralto), John Coltrane (sax tenore), James “Jimmy” Cobb (batteria), Paul Chambers (contrabbasso), Bill Evans (pianoforte) e Wynton Kelly (pianoforte in un solo brano) mette in musica nei 6 brani in scaletta, il jazz modale. Nato come risposta alla frenesia e alla tecnica quasi brutale del be-bop e l’hard bop, i principi del modal jazz furono descritti in un saggio da George Russell. Il principio guida era di svincolare la progressione degli accordi dalla tonalità del brano e associare ad ogni accordo differenti scale “modali”, ciascuna con una sua tonica, dalle molteplici e differenti sfumature, sempre in maniera indipendente e svincolata dalla tonalità: con l’applicazione del metodo scalare le armonizzazioni e le costruzioni di accordi possono muovere su tutta l'estensione di una data scala, potendo impiegare potenzialmente qualsiasi nota (le scale di Russell sono 7, e si distinguono dalla più chiara alla più scura come: Lidia, Ionica, Misolidia, Dorica, Eolia, Frigia e Locria). La grande differenza rispetto al jazz precedente è che non è più necessaria la simbiosi tra armonia e melodia. Davis con Bill Evans aveva fatto già le prove generali nel 1958 in quel primo capolavoro che fu Milestones. Ma qui, secondo le note di copertina che lo stesso Evans redasse (un genio assoluto anche nel raccontare), il disegno del Signore delle tenebre (nomignolo di Davis, per la sua scontrosità in pubblico) era molto più intrigante. Le registrazioni di Kind Of Blue (omaggio ironico al blues presente nei brani ma anche al nuovo “tipo��� che stava ribollendo in pentola) furono effettuate in soli due giorni il 2 Marzo e il 22 Aprile 1959 negli studi della Columbia Records sulla 30.ma strada a New York. Davis si presentò ai musicisti con degli spartiti di linee melodiche, parlò ai musicisti delle idee di base di ogni pezzo, e senza nessuna prova iniziarono le registrazioni, sotto le cure di un altro gigante, Teo Macero, il fido produttore e ingegnere del suono di Davis. Qui nasce una leggenda: per anni si pensò che tutte le registrazioni dei sei brani furono first take recorded, cioè fatte solo una volta. In realtà per ogni brano ne occorsero due o tre. Resta il fatto che il disco è diventato la pietra angolare del jazz anche per l’eccezionale sintonia che il sestetto acquisì in così poco tempo. I 6 brani del disco sono tutti standard del jazz, e vantano messi insieme oltre 1000 tra cover, versioni per orchestra, cantate e riprese in centinaia di dischi. So What è probabilmente il più famoso brano di Davis: dolcissimo, con il famoso voicing introdotto da Evans (e che nella musicologia contemporanea vengono definiti So what voicing, tanto per capire quanto diventeranno iconici) esprime perfettamente la nuova idea di jazz del gruppo: lunghe sequenze di accordi, un assolo dove non cambia nessun accordo in 24 battute (tanto amato da Coltrane che lo riprenderà in Impressions). Freddie Freeloader è un classico blues e ha in sequenza 5 assoli di pianoforte (suonato in questo caso da Kelly), tromba (Davis), Coltrane e Adderley (i due sax) e Chambers (contrabbasso) e l’ennesima leggenda vuole che lo scroccone (Freeloader) fosse Fred Tolbert, un amico barista di Miles Davis. Blue in Green è l’apoteosi di Davis e Coltrane, brano magico, spettacolare che ridisegna lo spazio musicale. All Blues è ancora blues (e ora si capisce da cosa prese il titolo del disco Davis) ma nei nei suoi oltre 11 minuti si trasforma in blues modale, primo esempio della storia della musica. Si finisce con un altro brano leggenda: Flamenco Sketches. Scritta senza melodia, il gruppo usa 5 differenti scale modali per improvvisare con una manciata di accordi come base sonora. La fama del disco all’epoca fu un po’ oscurata perchè pochi mesi dopo Ornette Coleman con The Shape Of Jazz To Come apriva la strada del free-jazz, facendo infuriare Davis, non nuovo ad arrabbiature per mancanza di attenzione nei suoi confronti. Tuttavia con il passare degli anni, Kind Of Blue è diventato non solo tra i dischi più venduti di tutti i tempi in ambito jazz, ma uno dei momenti musicali più importanti dell'intera cultura del ‘900. Jimmy Comb dopo trent’anni disse una cosa che spiega bene cosa fecero i nostri: “This Record Must Have Been Made In Heaven”. Non impauritevi dei tecnicismi e che sia solo musica “suonata” (sebbene moltissimi abbiano poi dato testi a queste musiche) e lasciatevi trasportare dal suono elegante, puro e dolcissimo di questo disco: anche chi non ha mai ascoltato un disco jazz ne resterà rapito, ci scommetto un caffè.

In A Silent Way di Miles Davis è stata la storia di musica n°1 nel gennaio 2018, Kind Of Blue è la n°100 di fine dicembre 2019. Ringrazio tutti coloro che leggono e che mi scrivono, è sempre interessante parlare di musica, soprattutto quando mi si ringrazia per aver fatto scoprire qualche disco o autore nuovo. Ho ancora voglia di scrivere dei miei dischi preferiti e mi prendo questi 10 giorni di festività per cercare nuove idee, e sono aperto anche a vostre segnalazioni. Regalate e regalatevi musica, dato che “la musica e la vita sono solo questioni di stile” (Miles Davis)

He was really going to pretend he had all these standards like he hadn't taken over the entire world, wasn't he? A useless discussion. He should've known better than to ask when this guy was going to focus on making everything sound pretty like a blasted politician.

"Some of their own decisions. Surely not the decision of whether they want to participate in all of this," he couldn't help but remark. But it wasn't like it wasn't apparent that he'd yet to be turned.

Raisu didn't very much care if the subject matter made Russell uncomfortable. He was the one who had decided to involve himself in everyone on earth's business.

"Well, Mr. Tolbert, I can see that you're set in the way you think things should be handled. I can compliment your steadfast nature if nothing else..."

"I don't force them. No I couldn't make them do that," Russell said, although it seemed to be more in thought, "As I said, it's not all control with me. It's more guidance. They still have the capacity to make some of their own decisions."

He reached down to play with one of his sleeves. Old habits really did die hard.

"They're just more willing to sign up for the donor registry for when they're, you know, gone," Russell said, "When your message is about caring and showing kindness for your fellow people, the results are surprising."

A small frown crept onto Russell's face. Blue eyes shifted away and then back again. It seemed he really didn't like thinking about these sorts of scenarios.

"If it were to come to that, I would make that decision less painful for all involved," Russell said then, "Help the one who would be 'losing' accept that choice, and ensure that they would go peacefully, without pain. That's the least I could do if both can't be saved."

✦ for the incorrect quote.

Shy: Remember that time you dared me to lick the swing set?

Russell: No, I said, "Shy, don't lick the swing set," and you said, "Don't tell me what to do, Tolbert," and then you licked the swing set.

For a pill that was supposed to help him, it sure did hurt when he first took it.

Intense pain shot through his head as the computer linked itself when his nervous system, digging through his brain and setting everything up. And just when it seemed like it couldn’t get any worse...

DISCOMFORT LEVELS MAY INCREASE.

Everything intensified, listing off some startup steps before stopping all at once.

CALIBRATION COMPLETE.

“Russell Tolbert, welcome to your Super Quantum Unit Intel Processor... your SQUIP.”

That voice came from a figure now standing in front of him. It looked mostly human aside from the unnaturally bright blue eyes and a few glowing lines on its face similar to those on a motherboard.

Anne Lesley Selecer’s debut collection of poetry, Sun Cycle, was reviewed by Heavy Feathers Review.

Oliver Baez Bendof’s Advantages of Being Evergreen has been reviewed or featured in Ms. Magazine, Rolling Stone, Poets & Writers, Essay Daily, TC Tolbert’s Trans/Nonbinary Poetry Resource List, The Poetry Question, the University of Arizona’s Poetry Center blog, Tone Madison, Boricua Reads, NYU’s Skirball series, and Poetry Daily.

Conor Bracken’s translation of Mohammed Khaïr-Eddine’s Scorpionic Sun has been profiled by Bomb, Entropy, The Kenyon Review, and Poetry Northwest.

Amy Long’s book of essays, Codependence, has been featured in The Millions, Vol. 1 Brooklyn, DIAGRAM, Magnify, The Ish podcast, Heavy Feather Review, Fiction Points, and Pulpmouth.

Russell Atkins’s World’d Too Much has been featured in the Plain Dealer, Cleveland Scene and Entropy, and was selected as a Small Press Distribution “Handpicked” book. Atkins was also celebrated in a featured Cleveland Book Week event, in collaboration with the Cleveland Foundation and CSU, at the Karamu House.

All five authors will visit CSU as part of this year’s Lighthouse Reading Series, where they will discuss their latest works and their creative process.

The CSU Poetry Center was established in 1962, and is a national non-profit independent press under the auspices of the Cleveland State University Department of English. It has published over 200 rangy, joyful, profound, astonishing, complicated, surprising and aesthetically diverse collections of contemporary poetry and prose by established and emerging authors. It also serves as an educational resource for undergraduate and graduate students by providing assistantship and internship opportunities as well as involving students in the editorial and production aspects of literary publishing.

"Good, good to hear," Russell said, before he smiled, "Heh, th-thanks. That's, that's good, that's good to know. But I, I guess, I guess we, we will if, if you're a game fan."

And this was a shop made for game fans by game fans, particularly when it came to indies and lesser known titles. But the mainstreams were still appreciated.

"Oh, heh, you're, you're welcome, I'm, I'm glad to help," Russell said, nodding, "Oh, Russ-Russell. Russell Tol-Tolbert. It, it was real nice to, nice to meetcha too, Mister..."

Hopefully the stranger wouldn't be offended about his name being not-so-subtly asked about in turn.

"I'll do that," the man said cheerfully. "And don't worry about inundating me. I'm just curious and I'm sure we'll chat more soon."

He lifted his drink in a sort of toast. "Thanks for everything. I'm gonna look around now and probably get back to exploring the city. I've got a few days before I need to start work. It was nice meeting you..." His tone left it open for a name, if the other felt inclined. But it also seemed the customer didn't want to overstep or overstay.

WHEN RUSSELL WENT INTO THE RIVER TO SAVE A DOG 

[pushspacetocontinue]

Tolbert and the Tinkerer (closed for the theotherrookie)

@theotherrookie

It was early days yet, but so far, Lucien's stay at his place had gone pretty smoothly. He had ordered a few nice things to make Lucien feel a bit more welcome. But he had had to venture out to discuss things at the shop.

Russell had been a bit confident. He was armed (the wooden bat he called Lewis sitting in the little bag he wore on his back), he was vigilant and it was daytime. More people were around. An attack was less likely, surely. But after a short but productive discussion with his boss, he had decided it best to head home. Working from home to handle marketing, social media, and online stuff was going to be very useful.

Russell had made sure to look around as he made his way back to the apartment building. He really didn't want to get caught off guard. Sadly, a phone call from Travis had derailed that. He had just wanted to upset Russell on his own plans before moving into the city for a bit.

Russell still made sure to look around as he spoke while he updated Travis on the situation. But then his focus became solely on the road as he waited for an opening to cross. Talking to Travis and watching for a gap in the vehicles snatched both of those things.

"No exposed skin either. Besides, other than poison, I don't know what they might have planning, so you gotta be on the lookout…"

If only knew how ironic that statement was going to be very soon.

Mobile Friendly Verses Page

Below, you’ll find a list of current verses. Only two so far (his main one and a very minor AU), but that is liable to change. 

Modern/Main Verse: His default verse and everything you see on his about and trivia pages applies here. He’s a vampire who lives in the modern day and works as a bartender in a high-end known as The Falling Star.

Relative Reincarnation: Pretty much the same as his normal/modern/main otherwise, so this is a minor verse/AU, where it turns out Bill’s son, who was originally murdered in London during 1918 at the age of 19 years old, before being buried there, has reincarnated into the character Russell Tolbert. For more info on Russell, go here: https://pushspacetocontinue.tumblr.com/

Raising the Stakes: A verse set in the world of Team Fortress 2, where Bill, still a vampire who enjoys company and having a thrilling occupation, works as an Admin and Supplier for both teams of TFI.

My Type of Guy: A world set in the Pokemon verse. This one is for all my muses on here; Bill, Leofric, Antonio, and Edward, who are trainers.

The 2017 NFL League year began on March 9 at 4:00 p.m. EST. On March 7, clubs were allowed to contact and enter into contract negotiations with the agents of players who became unrestricted free agents upon the expiration of their contracts two days later. On March 9, clubs exercised options for 2017 on players who have option clauses in their contracts, submitted qualifying offers to their restricted free agents with expiring contracts and to whom desire to retain a Right of Refusal/Compensation, submitted a Minimum Salary Tender to retain exclusive negotiating rights to their players with expiring 2016 contracts and who have fewer than three accrued seasons of free agent credit, and teams were required to be under the salary cap using the "Top-51" definition (in which the 51 highest paid-players on the team's payroll must have a collected salary cap hit below the actual cap). The 2017 trading period also began the same day.
