"MAINTAIN DOUBLE GUARD AT PRISON," Wichita Beacon. December 15, 1931. Page 1. --- Federal Pen Quiet but Officers Take No Chances ---- LEAVENWORTH, KAN., Dec. 15. - (UP) - Leavenworth prison, scene of disorder during the past 48 hours, was quiet today, but the guard pa- trolling its massive gray walls remained at double strength.
Earl Thayer last of seven prisoners who escaped in a break late last week, was in solitary confinement today as were the other three captured alive.
Thayer was taken on the streets here. It was thought he had made good his escape and gotten out of the section, but he said he had been "hiding in the woods" not 12 miles. from the prison. He had ammunition, a 45 pistol and a 30-30 rifle with him.
Meanwhile, Warden T. B. White was reported improving in the hospital. He was suffering from shotgun wounds in his left arm. White was shot by the convicts after they kidnapped him.
A complete investigation as to the source of the six revolvers, shotguns and rifles used by the seven prison- ers was being conducted today by Santord Bates, director of federal prisons

The back of Discworld novels: wowee terry's whipped another wacky and wild adventure for us this time! there's so many silly shenanigans and witty wordplay in this book that you're sure to have a hilarious time!
Discword novels: a cynical alcoholic navigating and overcoming the pointlessness of his job, a transparent metaphor for racism and gun violence in the police system and in general, an intelligent young girl overcoming the ideas she's been taught by her culture and the media she consumes, just an entire novel made of commentary on war and gender, using talking animals as a way to explore what defines personhood and contrasting stories vs reality, an ex-convict coming to terms with the damage he's caused and fighting monopolies that are trying to do the same thing,
#and then the ex-convict's name is Moist von Lipwig#yes i made them sound more serious than they are but the book descriptions always do the opposite so it balances out#the books i'm talking about in order: guards guards; men at arms; the wee free men; monstrous regiment; the amazing maurice; going postal#discworld#gnu terry pratchett#sam vimes#moist von lipwig#tiffany aching#monstrous regiment

Love havelock vetinari bc he’s introduced as a terrifying tyrant that will cut off your finger if you wave it at him and is inhumanly calm and collected but then you realize he’s actually just LARPing as a villain. He asks to be handcuffed so he can be arrested properly. He disapproves of his aunt’s cat because it’s not the kind you can pet sinisterly while waiting in the dark. He tries to do “tis but a scratch” about a fucking gunshot and collapses on the spot.

On your most recent From the Couch post... is that a dragon tattoo I see poking out of Zuko's collar? ...................may we see more of it?
You may see all of it.
#dema answers#atla#avatar the last airbender#zuko#atla fanart#atla art#prince zuko#tales from the couch#atla modern au#atla au#zuko art#zuko fanart#atla zuko#Tattooed Zuko#For context!#He got those tattoos during what would be S2 in this AU#This was right before being accepted back home. So he got them during a—let's say—crossroads of destiny *wink wink*#Those are his shame tattoos. He's terribly embarrassed by them so the Gaang tease him about them. (He's secretly very proud of them tho)#It's all about the duality inherent to fire (and himself!) as well as protection.#The red dragon has his back at all times. It protects Zuko from his past—from everything that he has left behind and is walking away from.#The Blue dragon guards him front unknown threats. It curls over his left arm (his most vulnerable side) and rests its head over Zuko's heart#It's all very symbolic#Zuko loves his tattoos but is also embarrassed and ashamed of how he got them. He was in a very bad place at the time.#If he got the chance to get his tattoos done *now*—he probably wouldn't do it.#He wouldn't change a thing tho. They're part of who he is. A reminder of who he was.#Also they're kinda hot#So that helps#Also...I forgot to draw the blue dragon's body on the back of his shoulder so... Oops?#Let us all ignore that and focus on the sun/starbust tattoo on his chest instead#the gaang

Perfect Home Security Ideas That'll Help Your Safety
When you least expect it, your worst nightmare can come true. A thief or other dangerous criminal could break into your home to steal valuables or, worse, hurt your loved ones. Prevent this from happening by educating yourself on home security, starting with the great tips included in this article.
When getting a home security system, you need to consider if there has been one previously installed. If this is the case, you can actually have a cheaper or easier installation by choosing to go with what was done before. Remember that this can be a wired or wireless installation.
If you use a social media site such as Facebook it can be tempting to tell everyone that you are planning to go away or are already away. Try your best not to post about being away until you are back, especially if your site is not private. You never know who could be watching and see it as an opportunity to break in.
Having a good sized dog can make for a great home security system and deterrent to criminals who are considering breaking into your house. Even if you do not have a dog, buying a couple "beware of the dog" signs can be enough to deter people from robbing your house.
Home security systems have additional features to just being noise alarms. They can be programmed to alert the homeowner if a person enters the home. This isn't just for burglars; parents with young children can also use it as a valuable tool to know when their child has come inside.
Walk outside of your home at night and see what is visible through your windows. If you have a clear view of your valuables, especially easily stolen electronics, then so do potential thieves. If you don't want to rearrange the interior of your home, simply make sure that blinds or drapes block the view.
There is no denying the critical nature of keeping your home protected from outside intruders. The key to doing this successfully, though, is arming yourself with solid information and guidance. Hopefully the preceding article has offered you precisely the type of advice you needed to get your home security plan off the ground.

very specific au thought, silver if he was the shield instead ( read the tags to see explanations )
#reading chapter 7 updates back to back on both servers YEEHAW#essentially shield silver is just silver but with his backstory has elements from yuulis' backstory#or like. the silver owl's kingdom falls apart much much more disastrously#so silver is!! essentially the same type of creature that yuulis is hnm hnm#he's less proficient in swordplay so sebek beats his ass in sparring#but he makes up for it in magic!! hes at least twice/thrice better than his og incarnation#though he lacks self confidence bcs hes surrounded by fae like malleus n lilia who r just. innately good at magic#he has thick arm guards instead of the regular diasomnia gloves#bcs his he needs protection for his feeble human arms#( jk he's still as muscular as normal silver bcs he has to swing that big staff around )#was gonna make the shoulder pad on his right to make him mirror the knight of dawn but it bugged me too much grrrrr#his clothes r also more loose but still not restrictive#without saying much#shield silver is closer to malleus than the og!! he imitates malleus' mannerisms a lot when casting spells. like the floaty thing mal does#also indirect yuulis lore ig#shield silver always covers up ( like malleus cards ) bcs he's got a mega complex about his stitches#unlike yuulis he has no means of rlly hiding his stitches by himself#so he's under an illusion spell ( cast by malleus ) where to the regular person he looks like a regular human#also when he overblots. he becomes the phantom himself ( indirect yuulis lore part 2 )#hence why.. fucked up looking creature in the last image#tahst enough rambling from me hehe live laugh love#twst#twisted wonderland#twst silver#sebek zigvolt#twst grim#twst yuu

thinking about arthur who has crazy quick reflexes and is a relatively light sleeper who woke up to the sound of someone in his room and saw merlin crouched down messing with his keys before softly asking “whatre you doing?…before breakfast?”
#like in that scene in s2 when merlin was calling out arthurs name from under his bed#and he jumped up (thinking merlin was long gone) grabbed his sword and postured for a fight#or that one in idk which season when merlin was sneaking in his room and he woke up and grabbed his sword when merlin bumped a chair#and then merlin brought the canopy/curtains around his bed down on him#vs waking up to see melin splayed over him and staring for a beat#before flinching back#(he was definitely having some thoughts and/or dreams but thats neither here nor there)#idk thinking about arthur who trusts merlin implicitly and allows himself to lower his guard around him#his guard which he keeps up even in his sleep#GOD imagining them in an established relationship and merlin for once has /so/ much trouble waking arthur up#like before it was sorta bad but arthur was always in that half awake state#but now that theyre together….arthur wont even groan when merlin starts poking his ribs#arthur finally feeling so safe and protected that he allows his guard to drop in his sleep#and its the first time hes ever felt truly refreshed in the morning#so now merlin has infinitely more trouble waking him up but when hes up hes UP and ready to go#bbc merlin#merlin emrys#arthur pendragon#merthur#arthur bby they could never make me hate you#hes just a girl desperately craving love and protection#merlin isnt even offering it#hes shoving it into arthurs arms with insults flying off the tongue#theyre so disgusting#(affectionate)#<3#headcanon#head canon#hc

Well, well, it’s the glorious 25th of May again, so here you are, there’s some Ank-Morporkian posters here. Hope you like them.
(Spent around 40 hours on these two, so I’ll be really glad if you let me know what’s you think!)
P.S. Some details I intended to show, but have no idea if I managed to, so that’s a description.
— Havelock looks at Keel's face, not at the slogan, because for him, the person is more important for him than the function. Keel, however, looks into the distance.
— Vimes looks at the slogan, as if uninterested in who performs the function, only in what the function is. Vetinari, however, looks at him from the poster. The Patrician sees everything and everyone, remember?
— The poster with Keel is drawn dynamically, like the revolution that turned everything upside down in one day. The young Havelock’s cloak is also caught in the wind. But the poster with Vetinari is completely static, with straight lines and a strict front. A stable, let's say "sober" composition, like everything about the Patrician.
— The places where the lilac is worn match between the observer and the person on the poster.
— Keel-Sam here is at his most mature form, with a lot of gray hair, around 46-47 years old. Although Vetinari here is quite young, at most 40. It's actually implied that this timeline is before the events of the first book, so Vimes is still just the captain of the miserable Night Watch. I know that usually in my fanarts, he has long hair during the first two books, but here I've given him a more "mature" hairstyle for the sake of character recognition. Lol.
