Historical Fiction: Biographical Stories
Fates and Traitors by Jennifer Chiaverini
The New York Times bestselling author of Mrs. Lincoln’s Dressmaker returns with a riveting work of historical fiction following the notorious John Wilkes Booth and the four women who kept his perilous confidence. John Wilkes Booth, the mercurial son of an acclaimed British stage actor and a Covent Garden flower girl, committed one of the most notorious acts in American history—the assassination of President Abraham Lincoln. The subject of more than a century of scholarship, speculation, and even obsession, Booth is often portrayed as a shadowy figure, a violent loner whose single murderous act made him the most hated man in America. Lost to history until now is the story of the four women whom he loved and who loved him in return: Mary Ann, the steadfast matriarch of the Booth family; Asia, his loyal sister and confidante; Lucy Lambert Hale, the senator’s daughter who adored Booth yet tragically misunderstood the intensity of his wrath; and Mary Surratt, the Confederate widow entrusted with the secrets of his vengeful plot. Fates and Traitors brings to life pivotal actors—some willing, others unwitting—who made an indelible mark on the history of our nation. Chiaverini portrays not just a soul in turmoil but a country at the precipice of immense change.
Under the Wide and Starry Sky by Nancy Horan
The passionate and turbulent story of Robert Louis Stevenson and his tempestuous American wife, Fanny.
At the age of thirty-five, Fanny van de Grift Osbourne leaves her philandering husband in San Francisco and sets sail for Belgium to study art, with her three children and a nanny in tow. Not long after her arrival, however, tragedy strikes, and Fanny and her brood repair to a quiet artists' colony in France where she can recuperate. There she meets Robert Louis Stevenson, ten years her junior, who is instantly smitten with the earthy, independent and opinionated belle Americaine.
A woman ahead of her time, Fanny does not immediately take to the young lawyer who longs to devote his life to literature, and who would eventually write such classics as Treasure Island and The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. In time, though, she succumbs to Stevenson's charms. The two begin a fierce love affair, marked by intense joy and harrowing darkness, which spans decades as they travel the world for the sake of his health. Eventually they settled in Samoa, where Robert Louis Stevenson is buried underneath the epitaph:
Under the wide and starry sky, Dig the grave and let me lie. Glad did I live and gladly die, And I laid me down with a will.
This be the verse you grave for me: Here he lies where he longed to be; Home is the sailor, home from sea, And the hunter home from the hill.
The Unquiet Grave by Sharyn McCrumb
Lakin, West Virginia, 1930 Following a suicide attempt and consigned to a segregated insane asylum, attorney James P. D. Gardner finds himself under the care of Dr. James Boozer. Fresh out of medical school, Dr. Boozer is eager to try the new talking cure for insanity, and encourages his elderly patient to reminisce about his experiences as the first black attorney to practice law in nineteenth-century West Virginia. Gardner's most memorable case was the one in which he helped to defend a white man on trial for the murder of his young bride—a case that the prosecution based on the testimony of a ghost. Greenbrier, West Virginia, 1897 Beautiful, willful Zona Heaster has always lived in the mountains of West Virginia. Despite her mother’s misgivings, Zona marries Erasmus Trout Shue, the handsome blacksmith who has recently come to Greenbrier County. After weeks of silence from the newlyweds, riders come to the Heasters’ place to tell them that Zona has died from a fall, attributed to a recent illness. Mary Jane is determined to get justice for her daughter. A month after the funeral, she informs the county prosecutor that Zona’s ghost appeared to her, saying that she had been murdered. An autopsy, ordered by the reluctant prosecutor, confirms her claim. The Greenbrier Ghost is renowned in American folklore, but Sharyn McCrumb is the first author to look beneath the legend to unearth the facts. Using a century of genealogical material and other historical documents, McCrumb reveals new information about the story and brings to life the personalities in the trial: the prosecutor, a former Confederate cavalryman; the defense attorney, a pro-Union bridgeburner, who nevertheless had owned slaves; and the mother of the murdered woman, who doggedly sticks to her ghost story—all seen through the eyes of a young black lawyer on the cusp of a new century, with his own tragedies yet to come.
Prisoner B-3087 by Alan Gratz
Survive. At any cost. 10 concentration camps. 10 different places where you are starved, tortured, and worked mercilessly. It's something no one could imagine surviving. But it is what Yanek Gruener has to face. As a Jewish boy in 1930s Poland, Yanek is at the mercy of the Nazis who have taken over. Everything he has, and everyone he loves, have been snatched brutally from him. And then Yanek himself is taken prisoner -- his arm tattooed with the words PRISONER B-3087. He is forced from one nightmarish concentration camp to another, as World War II rages all around him. He encounters evil he could have never imagined, but also sees surprising glimpses of hope amid the horror. He just barely escapes death, only to confront it again seconds later. Can Yanek make it through the terror without losing his hope, his will -- and, most of all, his sense of who he really is inside?

“In the years before World War II, footmen had stood behind every chair at dinner parties at Holiday House. During Rebekah Harkness’s tenure there, the various chefs in the different apartments into which the house was divided were themselves catered to by a master chef”
One of the most notable cottages of Watch Hill, Holiday House, later called High Watch, was built in 1929‒30 for Mrs. George Grant
Snowden (Pearl Pinkerton McClelland Snowden) of Philadelphia, whose husband had died in 1918. It stands as a landmark for sailors on the great bluff from which Watch Hill takes its name.
Mrs.Snowden had acquired the historic and dramatic site from the estate of Eugene Atwood in 1929.The Snowdens, beginning with George Grant Snowden’s father,
James McKean Snowden, who was born in 1831 and lived in Pittsburgh, had made their fortune in oil and gas exploration. George Grant Snowden and his brother, James H. Snowden, explored for oil first in Pennsylvania and then in Texas and New Mexico. An unanticipated result of their explorations in New Mexico was the discovery of what at the time was the largest potash deposit in the world. The next generation, George Grant Snowden, Jr., and his brother, James M. Snowden, continued the family business from an office in New York.
James M. Snowden, Jr., remembers skyrockets and roman candles being set off from the terrace over the ocean on the Fourth of July in the 1940s. These fireworks were launched from glass milk bottles that were current then. He recalls that one guest, Joe Thomas, senior partner of Lehman Brothers, lit the skyrockets with a large cigar.
Mr. Snowden also remembers hearing from his father about an attempted kidnapping, some years earlier, involving a plane which kidnappers had landed on the golf course. Owing to confusion as to which was the house of their intended victim, the attempt failed.
Even though the Snowdens were not the target, for the next several weeks at Holiday House, a night watchman was stationed with a submachine gun at the end of the hallway where most of the bedrooms were.
In 1948, Holiday House became the property of William Hale Harkness. Harkness was heir to his family’s Standard Oil Company fortune, his great-uncle, Stephen Vanderburgh Harkness, and his grandfather, Daniel M. Harkness, having been initial investors with John D. Rockefeller. He himself had been an initial investor, in 1922, in a fledgling publishing venture launched by two Yale friends, Briton Hadden and Henry R. Luce. That venture was Time, The Weekly News magazine.
Harkness came to Watch Hill through his second wife, Rebekah West Pierce Harkness, whom he had married the year before. Rebekah Harkness, known as “Betty,” was from St. Louis and had summered all her life at Watch Hill, where her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Allen T. West, owned Stoneleigh on Wapan Road.
William Harkness brought with him his eighty-foot yacht, Ardea, which was the committee boat of the annual Yale-Harvard Crew Race at New London, the oldest intercollegiate sporting event in the country. The finish judges’ boat at those races was another famous boat, also associated with Watch Hill, Aphrodite, formerly John Hay Whitney’s cruiser, which in the 1990s was acquired by Watch Hill summer resident Charles M. Royce and was regularly docked at the Plimpton Dock.
Biographer Craig Unger describes Holiday House as “the single most imposing structure in Watch Hill”:
Situated on the bluff after which the town was named, the white clapboard house dominates the area. It is so large and rambling — with more than forty rooms, four chimneys, and half a dozen terraced sundecks — that it is hard to believe it is a single-family summer dwelling. Near the top deck is a room with windows on three sides from which one can see for miles up and down the Rhode Island coast.
After Mr. Harkness died suddenly in 1954, Mrs. Harkness, an amateur musician who had studied under Nadia Boulanger, the celebrated French teacher of composition, and at the Mannes College of Music and had written a number of popular songs, entered upon a career in dance. Reportedly at the suggestion of Yehudi Menuhin, she also took up yoga to improve her musical technique, importing a yoga teacher, B. K. S. Iyengar, to Holiday House in the summer of 1956 to teach her and her three children, Allen and Terry Pierce, and Edith Harkness, ages, 16, 12, and 7. Neighbors’ children were invited to join in the lessons.
Mrs. Harkness announced her intention to go to India the following year, for advanced lessons with Yogi Iyengar. In the early 1960s, Mrs. Harkness became a patron of the Joffrey Ballet, bringing the entire company to Watch Hill for two summers,1962–63.
They practiced at the old Fire House, which she had purchased and converted into the Holiday Art Center, and on the terrace of Holiday House. In 1964, she founded her own company, the Harkness Ballet, principally with dancers from the Joffrey. She invited the new company to Watch Hill for the summer of 1965. The new company also accompanied her to Washington in September of that year, when they performed for President and Mrs. Johnson at the White House on a new portable East Room stage which she presented to the house on that occasion.
In 1966, she had an outdoor practice floor, covered by a blue plastic Buckminster Fuller geodesic dome, constructed on the lawn to the east of the house. The dome outraged neighbors, who sued on the basis of zoning violations. They prevailed, and the dome was dismantled.
Not long thereafter, Mrs. Harkness left Watch Hill, establishing herself at a new country location nearer to New York, Sneden’s Landing on the Hudson, a half-hour north of the city. She put Holiday House on the market. A local partnership, the Watch Hill Associates, was formed to protect the property, and Mrs. Harkness conveyed it to them in 1973.
Fearing that no single purchaser would be found to acquire the entire property, the partnership subdivided it into three lots, the center one, Lot 2, containing the house. The deed to Lot 2 required the buyer to reduce the size of the house at each end and to establish appropriate sideline distances for any structures that might be built on Lots 1 and 3.
The Westerly Sun ran a photograph of the house with the caption, “Probably to be Demolished.”
All three lots were sold in 1974, the Gurdon B. Wattles family being the purchasers of Lot 2.
They renamed the cottage High Watch and over the next four years acquired the other two lots. They reduced the cottage in size, and no further structures were built on the Watch Hill.
In 1985, Gurdon B. Wattles and seven of his friends turned fifty, and they celebrated with a spectacular birthday party dance at High Watch. The others were Whitney Addington, Malcolm Barlow, Jane Buffum, Arthur Cottrell III, Robert Knisley, Suzanne MacLear, and John McCormick. It was a flawless, full-moon August evening with a big band orchestra playing on the terrace and a steel band below, by the pool. Fireworks over Lighthouse Point were provided by Grucci. The Wattles family remained at High Watch until 1996.

Early yearsEdit
Tobey was born in 1917 in Oakland, California. Following his graduation from high school in 1935, Kenneth entered the University of California, Berkeley with intentions to pursue a career in law until he began to dabble in acting at the school's theater.[1] His stage experience there led to a drama scholarship, a year-and-a-half of study at New York's Neighborhood Playhouse, where his classmates included fellow actors Gregory Peck, Eli Wallach, and Tony Randall.[2][3]
During World War II, Tobey joined the United States Army Air Forces, serving in the Pacific as a rear gunner aboard a B-25 bomber.[3] Throughout the 1940s, with the exception of his time in military service, Tobey acted on Broadway and in summer stock. After appearing in a 1943 film short, The Man of the Ferry, he made his Hollywood film debut in the 1947 Hopalong Cassidy western Dangerous Venture. He then went on to appear in scores of features and on numerous television series. In the 1949 film Twelve O' Clock High, he is the negligent airbase sentry who is dressed down by General Frank Savage (played by Gregory Peck). That same year Tobey performed in a brief comedy bit in another film, I Was a Male War Bride. His performance in that minor part caught the attention of director Howard Hawks, who promised to use the thirty-two-year-old actor in something more substantial.
The Thing from Another WorldEdit
In 1951, Tobey was cast in Howard Hawks' production The Thing from Another World. In this classic sci-fi film he portrays Captain Patrick Hendry, a United States Air Force pilot, who at the North Pole leads a scientific outpost's dogged defense against an alien portrayed by James Arness, later the star of the television series Gunsmoke. Tobey's performance in Hawks' film garnered the actor other parts in science fiction movies in the 1950s, usually reprising his role as a military officer, such as in The Beast from 20,000 Fathoms (1953) and It Came from Beneath the Sea (1956).
TelevisionEdit
Tobey appeared in the 1952 episode "Counterfeit Plates" on the CBS series Biff Baker, U.S.A., an espionage drama starring Alan Hale, Jr. He was cast too in the 1954-1955 CBS legal drama The Public Defender, starring Reed Hadley. He guest-starred in three episodes of NBC's western anthology series Frontier. His Frontier roles were as Wade Trippe in "In Nebraska" (1955) and then as Gabe Sharp in "Out from Texas" and "The Hostage" (1956). In 1955, he also portrayed legendary frontiersman Jim Bowie on ABC's Davy Crockett, a Walt Disney production, with Fess Parker in the title role. After Bowie's death in the series at the Battle of the Alamo, Tobey played a second character, Jocko, in the two final episodes of Davy Crockett.
Tobey then, in 1957, appeared in the syndicated religion anthology series Crossroads in the role of Mr. Alston in the episode "Call for Help" and as Jim Callahan in "Bandit Chief" in the syndicated western series The Sheriff of Cochise. Later that same year, Tobey starred in the television series The Whirlybirds, a successful CBS and then-syndicated adventure produced by Desilu Studios. In it he played the co-owner of a helicopter charter service, along with fellow actor Craig Hill. The Whirlybirds was a major hit in the United States and abroad, with 111 episodes filmed through 1960. It remained in syndication worldwide for many years.
In 1958, Tobey also appeared as John Wallach in the episode "$50 for a Dead Man" in Jeff Richards's NBC western series Jefferson Drum. In 1960, he guest-starred in the episode "West of Boston" of another NBC western series, Overland Trail, starring William Bendix and Doug McClure. Also in 1960, he appeared as Colonel Lake on Death Valley Days and on ABC's western The Rebel, starring Nick Adams. Tobey made three guest appearances on Perry Mason, twice in 1960 and once in 1962 as Jack Alvin, a deputy district attorney. On the long-running western series Gunsmoke, he portrayed a cruel, knife-wielding buffalo hunter in the 1960 episode titled "The Worm".[4] Tobey in 1962 also guest-starred on another Western series, Lawman, playing the character Duncan Clooney, an engineer who seeks to move a shipment of nitroglycerin through Laramie, Wyoming. When the town is evacuated to allow passage of the explosives, two of Clooney's employees decide they will take advantage of the situation to rob the bank.[5]
Tobey guest-starred as well in Jack Lord's 1962-1963 ABC adventure series about a rodeo circuit rider, Stoney Burke. In 1967 he performed on the series Lassie, in the episode "Lure of the Wild", playing a retired forest ranger who tames a local coyote. He also appeared as a slave owner named Taggart in "The Wolf Man", a 1967 episode of Daniel Boone, starring Fess Parker.[6] A few of the many other series in which Tobey later performed include Adam-12 (1969), Gibbsville (1976), MV Klickitat (1978), Emergency! (1975), and Night Court (1985). Tobey also appeared in Barnaby Jones; episode titled, "Fantasy of Fear" (02/25/1975).
He became a semi-regular on the NBC series I Spy as the field boss of agents Robinson and Scott. Christian Nyby, director of The Thing From Another World, often directed those episodes. Tobey also portrayed a ship's captain on the Rockford Files, in an episode titled "There's One in Every Port".
Other filmsEdit
In 1957, Tobey portrayed a sheriff in The Vampire (a film that some sources today often confuse with the 1935 production Mark of the Vampire). That year he also appeared in a more prestigious film, serving as a featured supporting character with John Wayne and Maureen O'Hara, the co-stars of John Ford's The Wings of Eagles.[7] In that film, Tobey—with his naturally red hair on display in vibrant Metrocolor—portrays a highly competitive United States Army Air Service officer. In one memorable scene he has the distinction of shoving a piece of gooey cake into the face of John Wayne, whose character is a rival United States Navy aviation officer. Not surprisingly, a room-wrecking brawl ensues.
Tobey's work over the next several decades was increasingly involved in television productions. He did, though, continue to perform in a range of feature films, such as Stark Fear, Marlowe, Billy Jack, Walking Tall, The Howling, the war movie MacArthur (in which he portrays Admiral "Bill"[8] Halsey), Airplane!, Gremlins, Big Top Pee-wee, and Gremlins 2: The New Batch.[9]
BroadwayEdit
Although Tobey had a busy acting career in films and on television, he also periodically returned to the stage. In 1964 he began a long run on Broadway opposite Sammy Davis, Jr., in the musical version of Clifford Odets' play Golden Boy. Some of his other Broadway credits are As You Like It, Sunny River, Janie, Sons and Soldiers, A New Life, Suds in Your Eye, The Cherry Orchard, and Truckline Cafe.[10]
Later yearsEdit
As his long career drew to a close, Tobey still received acting jobs from people who had grown up watching his performances in sci-fi films of the 1950s, particularly Joe Dante, who included the veteran actor in his stock company of reliable players. Two appearances on the sitcom Night Court came the same way, through fans of his work. Along with other character actors who had been in 1950s sci-fi and horror films (John Agar, Robert O. Cornthwaite, Gloria Talbott, etc.), Tobey starred in a spoof originally titled Attack Of The B Movie Monster. In 2005, Anthem Pictures released the completed feature version of this spoof on DVD under the new title The Naked Monster. Tobey's scenes in that release were actually shot in 1985, so The Naked Monster is technically his final film credit, being released three years after his death. He had, however, continued to act throughout most of the 1990s. One of those notable roles is his performance in the 1994 Star Trek: Deep Space Nine episode "Shadowplay" as Rurigan, an alien who recreates his dead friends as holograms. Among other examples of Tobey's final decade of work are his two appearances as Judge Kent Watson on the series L.A. Law.
In 2002, Tobey died of natural causes at age 85 in Rancho Mirage, California.

I'VE BEEN PONDERING STOCK
And are English classes even the place to do it. By definition they're partisan. Would the transplanted startups survive?1 One of the best in the business. The other reason the number of startups started within them. Do they let energetic young people get paid market rate for the work they do.2 They don't always, of course: insurance, business license, unemployment compensation, various things with the IRS. But if I have to pause when I lose my train of thought. For a lot of people who get rich through rent-seeking of various forms, and a research director at Smith Barney. An essayist can't have quite as little foresight as a river. And so began the study of ancient texts had such prestige that it remained the backbone of education until the late 19th century.3 But can you think of one restaurant that had really good food and went out of business and the people would be dispersed.
A wimpy little single-board computer for hobbyists that used a TV as a monitor? Most people who publish online write what they write for the simple reason that they want to own, and the harder performance is to measure, the more we'll see multiple companies doing the same thing.4 At the other extreme are publications like the New York Times reporters on their cell phones; a graphic designer who feels physical pain when something is two millimeters out of place. But only graduation rates, not how much students learn. That's the key to success as a startup founder, but that you should never shrink from it if it's on the path to something great. I seemed awkward and halting by comparison.5 And they're going to be developing it for people like you. And since all the hackers had spent many hours talking to users, we understood online commerce way better than anyone else. Almost by definition, if a startup succeeds its founders become rich.6 The main reason they want to. One is that the raison d'etre of all these institutions has been the same: to beat the system. Wodehouse or Evelyn Waugh or Raymond Chandler is too obviously pleasing to seem like serious work, as reading Shakespeare would have been there without PR firms, but briefly and skeptically.
This does happen. This is called seed capital. This seems a common problem. Remember the exercises in critical reading you did in school, where you can spend as long thinking about each sentence as it takes to say it, a person hearing a talk can only spend as long on each sentence as it takes to say it, a person hearing a talk can be a powerful force. And the days when VCs could wash angels out of the picture. Why do the media keep running stories saying suits are back?7 Like most startups, ours began with a group of friends, and it was only then I realized he hadn't said very much. If anyone proved a theorem in christian Europe before 1200, for example, by helping them to become smarter or more disciplined, which then makes them more successful.8
Sometimes I even make a conscious effort to remind oneself that the real world you can create wealth as well as as apportioning the stock, you should either learn how or find a co-founder. Our offices were in a wooden triple-decker in Harvard Square.9 But this is a situation where it would really be an uphill battle. For a lot of investors unconsciously treat this number as if it were a single phenomenon. Reading P. You have more leverage negotiating with VCs than you realize.10 Usually this is an assumption people start from rather than a conclusion they arrive at by examining the evidence. We should fix those things.11 For example, in a recent essay I pointed out that because you can only judge computer programmers by working with them, no one knows in programming who the heroes should be. For example, the question of the relative merits of Ford and Chevy pickup trucks, that you couldn't safely talk about with others.
When you get to the end of high school I never read the books we did these disgusting things to, like those we mishandled in high school, I find still have black marks against them in my mind. The path it has discovered, winding as it is, represents the most economical route to the sea. A few years later I heard a talk by someone who was not merely a better speaker than me, but a famous speaker. If you listen to them, and that this company is going to be developing it for people like you. Design, as Matz has said, should follow the principle of least surprise. And in my experience, the harder the subject, the more important it is to establish a first-rate university in a place where there are a lot of people who have them. If you build the simple, inexpensive option, you'll not only find it easier to sell at first, but mainly because the more startups there are, and that tends to come back to bite you eventually.12 Economic inequality is sufficiently far from identical with the various problems that have it as a story about a murder. This was also one reason we didn't go public. Often they're people who themselves got rich from technology.13
Financially, a startup is to run into intellectual property problems.14 By the end of that year we had about 70 users. They seemed wrong. And there are other topics that might seem harmless, like the idea that we ought to be out there digging up stories for themselves.15 But for nearly everyone else, spoken language is better.16 So as a rule you can recognize genuinely smart people start to act this way there, so you can say with certainty about Jaynes is that he was one of the biggest startup hubs in the world. Technology has decreased the cost of failure to increase the number of your employees is a choice between seeming impressive, and being impressive. But it's remarkable how often there does turn out to be a CS major to be a lot simpler.17 So what's interesting? And when readers see similar stories in multiple places, they think there is some important trend afoot.

Factors on Software Effort Estimation
Simon WU Iok Kuan
Faculty of Business Administration, University of Macao, Macau, China
ABSTRACT
Software effort estimation is an important process of system development life cycle, as it may affect the success of software projects if project designers estimate the projects inaccurately. In the past of few decades, various effort prediction models have been proposed by academicians and practitioners. Traditional estimation techniques include Lines of Codes (LOC), Function Point Analysis (FPA) method and Mark II Function Points (Mark II FP) which have proven unsatisfactory for predicting effort of all types of software. In this study, the author proposed a regression model to predict the effort required to design small and medium scale application software. To develop such a model, the author used 60 completed software projects developed by a software company in Macau. From the projects, the author extracted factors and applied them to a regression model. A prediction of software effort with accuracy of MMRE = 8% was constructed.

Amman, Jordan
ABSTRACT
Program Robustness is now more important than before, because of the role software programs play in our life. Many papers defined it, measured it, and put it into context. In this paper, we explore the different definitions of program robustness and different types of techniques used to achieve or measure it. There are many papers about robustness. We chose the papers that clearly discuss program or software robustness. These papers stated that program (or software) robustness indicates the absence of ungraceful failures. There are different types of techniques used to create or measure a robust program. However, there is still a wide space for research in this area.
Keywords:
Robustness, Robustness measurement, Dependability, Correctness.

ABSTRACT
Requirement elicitation is a very important step into developing any new application. This paper will examine the culture effect on requirement elicitation in developing countries.
This is a unique research that will look at requirement elicitation process in 10 different parts of the world including Arab word, India, China, Africa and South America. The focus is how the culture affects (RE) and makes every place has its own practice of RE. The data were collect through surveys and direct interviews. The results show astonishing culture effect on RE.
The conclusion is that culture effects deeply the technique gets chosen for requirement elicitation. If you are doing RE in Thailand, it will be very different from RE in Arab world. For example in Thailand respect for leader is critical and any questioning of manager methods will create a problem while in Arab world decision tree is favourite RE technique because visual are liked much more than documents.

Department of Information Technology and Management, Shih Chien University, Taipei, Taiwan
ABSTRACT
In Mobile communications age, the IT environment and IT technology update rapidly. The requirements change is the software project must face challenge. Able to overcome the impact of requirements change, software development risks can be effectively reduced. Agile software development uses the Iterative and Incremental Development (IID) process and focuses on the workable software and client communication. Agile software development is a very suitable development method for handling the requirements change in software development process. In agile development, user stories are the important documents for the client communication and criteria of acceptance test. However, the agile development doesn’t pay attention to the formal requirements analysis and artifacts tracability to cause the potential risks of software change management. In this paper, analyzing and collecting the critical quality factors of user stories, and proposes the User Story Quality Measurement (USQM) model. Applied USQM model, the requirements quality of agile development can be enhanced and risks of requirement changes can be reduced.

A Survey of Verification Tools Based on Hoare Logic
Nahid A. Ali
College of Computer Science & Information Technology, Sudan University of Science & Technology, Khartoum, Sudan
ABSTRACT
The quality and the correctness of software has a great concern in computer systems. Formal verification tools can used to provide a confidence that a software design is free from certain errors. This paper surveys tools that accomplish automatic software verification to detect programming errors or prove their absence. The two tools considered are tools that based on Hoare logic namely, the KeY-Hoare and Hoare Advanced Homework Assistant (HAHA). A detailed example on these tools is provided, underlining their differences when applied to practical problems.

The Impact of Software Complexity on Cost and Quality - A Comparative Analysis Between Open Source and Proprietary Software
Anh Nguyen-Duc IDI, NTNU, Norway
ABSTRACT
Early prediction of software quality is important for better software planning and controlling. In early development phases, design complexity metrics are considered as useful indicators of software testing effort and some quality attributes. Although many studies investigate the relationship between design complexity and cost and quality, it is unclear what we have learned beyond the scope of individual studies. This paper presented a systematic review on the influence of software complexity metrics on quality attributes. We aggregated Spearman correlation coefficients from 59 different data sets from 57 primary studies by a tailored meta-analysis approach. We found that fault proneness and maintainability are most frequently investigated attributes. Chidamber & Kemerer metric suite is most frequently used but not all of them are good quality attribute indicators. Moreover, the impact of these metrics is not different in proprietary and open source projects. The result provides some implications for building quality model across project type.

Our Center for Health Equity partnered with the Department of Education’s Office of School Wellness Programs to host the annual NYC School Wellness Poster Contest and Excellence in School Wellness Award ceremony June 7 at Brooklyn Borough Hall.
The Excellence in School Wellness Award was created to recognize elementary schools for their efforts in creating a healthy school environment as a means to promote child health and improve academic achievement. The award recognizes schools that meet the criteria in six areas: wellness councils, school-level wellness policies, physical activity, indoor active recess, removal of chocolate milk and promotion of mental, emotional and social health. The ESWA encourages all NYC elementary schools to apply each year.
The poster contest, open to all NYC public school students from kindergarten to 12th grade, showcases students’ creativity and artistic talent as they promote healthy school communities that support the cornerstones of physical education, health education and wellness programs.

Characterization of the Physicochemical and Thermal properties of the Biofield Energy Treated Flutamide Using PSA, PXRD, TGA/DTG, and DSC Analytical Techniques- Juniper Publishers
Abstract
Flutamide is an antiandrogen drug that blocks the action of testosterone by binding to the androgen receptor. This study was designed to determine the impact of the Trivedi Effect®-Energy of Consciousness Healing Treatment on the physicochemical and thermal properties of flutamide. The test sample was divided into two parts, i.e., control and treated sample. The control part was known as untreated sample, while the treated part remotely received the Biofield Energy Healing Treatment by a renowned Biofield Energy Healer, Alice Branton. The study showed that the particle size values were significantly increased by 15.82%(d10), 16.36%(d50), 1.05%(d90), and 5.10% {D (4, 3)}; thus, the specific surface area was significantly decreased by 14.56% in the treated sample compared with the control sample. The PXRD peak intensities and crystallite sizes were significantly altered ranging from 7.02% to 29.41% and -9.17% to 17.86%, along with 2.84% increase in the average crystallite size in the treated flutamide compared to the control sample. The residue weight was significantly decreased by 64.16%; however, the maximum thermal degradation temperature was increased by 10.16% in the treated sample compared to the control sample. The latent heat of the treated sample reduced by 9.37% compared with the control sample. The results revealed the significant alteration in the crystallinity, particle size and thermal stability of the treated sample as compared to the untreated sample. Thus, the Biofield Energy Treated flutamide might improve the flowability, and compatibility compared with the untreated sample, that may help in designing a better pharmaceutical formulation in terms of its performance against various diseases.
Keywords: Flutamide, The trivedi effect®, Energy of consciousness haling treatment, Complementary and alternative medicine, PSA, PXRD, TGA, DSC
Introduction
Flutamide is a nonsteroidal pure antiandrogen drug (toluidine derivative, structurally associated to bicalutamide and nilutamide), which perform its action by inhibiting the uptake and/or binding of dihydrotestosterone to the target cell receptor that leads to alter the interfering with the androgen action. It blocks the action of both endogenous and exogenous testosterone by binding to the androgen receptor, thus flutamide administration results in elevations of plasma testosterone and estradiol [1]. However, it was reported that it is a potent inhibitor of testosterone-stimulated prostatic DNA synthesis. 2-Hydroxyflutamide, an active metabolite of flutamide competitively blocks the dihydrotestosterone binding at androgen receptors, which results in the formation of inactive complexes that could not be translocate into the cell nucleus. This property is significantly useful to arrest the growth of tumour cell or transient tumour regression [2]. Absorption, distribution, and excretion of flutamide is very rapid and absorbed completely. In addition, it is rapidly and extensively metabolized with only 2.5% of plasma radioactivity of 1 hour after administration. The biological half-life of the alpha-hydroxylated metabolite of flutamide is approximately 6 hours. Flutamide, as an anti-androgens action used to treat prostate cancer in men, by blocking the effects of testosterone that helps prostate cancer to grow and also significantly used with other medications for radiation treatments [3]. Flutamide is administered and preferred orally, while it is 95% plasma protein-bound and seems to concentrate in the prostate. The data suggested that flutamide undergoes rapid metabolism to a variety of compounds. However, 95% of an oral dose is excreted by the kidneys. Hemodialysis cannot remove it due to its high protein binding. It might have some side effects because this is commonly used with other medications, such as hot flashes, diarrhoea and nausea, loss of sexual interest/ability, vomiting, and enlargement of male breasts. However, drowsiness is one of the less common side effects, while diarrhoea is a common side effect. The rate of absorption and mechanism of action depends upon various factors of drugs such as its solubility, stability, pharmacokinetics and bioavailability [4,5]. However, physicochemical properties of any pharmaceuticals are very important in the different role for its biological profile. Therefore, in order to improve the physiochemical profile such as such as particle size, crystalline structure, crystallite size, surface area, etc., research has been carried to alter the physicochemical properties.
The Biofield Energy Treatment is considered as an emerging field as it is an integral healthcare approach including the increasing beneficial effects of Complementary and Alternative Medicine (CAM) therapies, against various health conditions [6,7]. National Institute of Health (NIH) recommend and included various Energy Healing therapies such as natural products, yoga, deep breathing, meditation, homeopathy, progressive relaxation, acupressure, acupuncture, hypnotherapy, relaxation techniques, healing touch, pilates, Ayurvedic medicine, traditional Chinese herbs and medicines, Reiki, cranial sacral therapy, etc. under CAM category and these are accepted by most of the U.S. population with several advantages [8,9]. Similarly, the Biofield Energy Healing (the Trivedi Effect®) has also been popular worldwide due to its remarkable impact on the nonliving materials as well as the living organisms. The Trivedi Effect®-Consciousness Energy Healing Treatment has been reported for its significant impact on the physicochemical and thermal properties of various pharmaceutical/nutraceutical compounds [10-12], plants [13,14], altered characteristics in microbiology [15-17], metals, ceramics, and polymers [18,19], livestock [20], biotechnology [21], and skin health [22]. Thus, this study was aimed to determine the effect of the Biofield Energy Treatment (Trivedi Effect®) on the physicochemical and thermal properties of flutamide by using various analytical techniques such as, particle size analysis (PSA), powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC).
Materials and Methods
Chemicals and reagents
Flutamide was purchased from Tokyo Chemical Industry Co. Ltd. All other chemicals used during the experiments were of analytical grade available in India.
Consciousness energy healing treatment strategies
Flutamide, i.e., the test compound was divided into two parts. Among both parts, one portion was denoted as control sample that did not receive the Biofield Energy Treatment. Besides, the other part of flutamide was considered as the treated part that received the Energy of Consciousness Healing Treatment by the renowned Biofield Energy Healer, Alice Branton (USA), and named as the Biofield Energy Treated sample. In the process of Biofield Energy Treatment, the sample was kept under the standard laboratory conditions, and the Biofield Energy Healer provided the Trivedi Effect® - Energy of Consciousness Healing Treatment to the sample, remotely, for 3 minutes through the Unique Energy Transmission process. On the other hand, the control flutamide was subjected to a “sham” healer under the similar laboratory conditions, who did not have any knowledge about the Biofield Energy Healing Treatment. Consequently, the control as well as Biofield Energy Treated flutamide samples were kept in similar sealed conditions and further characterized by using modern analytical techniques.
Characterization
The PSA, PXRD, TGA/DTG, and DSC analysis of pyridoxine were performed. The PSA was performed using Malvern Mastersizer 2000, from the UK with a detection range between 0.01μm to 3000μm using the wet method [23,24]. The PXRD analysis of pyridoxine powder sample was performed with the help of Rigaku MiniFlex-II Desktop X-ray diffractometer (Japan) [25,26]. The average size of crystallites was calculated from PXRD data using the Scherrer’s formula (1)
Where G is the crystallite size in nm, k is the equipment constant (0.94), λ is the radiation wavelength (0.154056nm for K α 1 emission), β is the full-width at half maximum, and θ is the Bragg angle [27]. Similarly, The TGA/DTG thermograms of pyridoxine were obtained with the help of TGA Q50 TA instruments. The DSC analysis of pyridoxine was performed with the help of DSC Q200, TA instruments [23,24]. The % change in particle size, specific surface area (SSA), peak intensity, crystallite size, melting point, latent heat, weight loss and the maximum thermal degradation temperature (Tmax) of the Biofield Energy Treated sample was calculated compared with the control sample using the following equation 2:
Results and Discussion
Particle size analysis (PSA)
The particle size analysis of the control and Biofield Energy Treated samples were presented in Table 1. The particle size distribution of the control sample was found at d10 = 44.31μm, d50 = 179.98μm, d90 = 653.57μm, and D (4, 3) = 276.60μm. However, the particle size distribution of the Biofield Energy Treated flutamide sample was observed at d10 = 51.32μm, d50 = 209.43μm, d90 = 660.45μm, and D (4, 3) = 290.70μm. The result analysis revealed that the particle size values at d10, d50, d90, and D (4, 3) in the Biofield Energy Treated sample were significantly increased by 15.82%, 16.36%, 1.05%, and 5.10%, respectively, compared to the control sample.
On the other hand, the specific surface area of the Biofield Energy Treated flutamide (0.088m2/Kg) was decreased by 14.56% as compared with the control sample (0.103m2/Kg). The literature reported the impact of particle size distribution of drug on the formulation development in terms of its blend uniformity, compactibility, and flowability, etc., which further affected the safety, efficacy, and the quality of the formulation [28,29]. Hence, the Biofield Energy Treated flutamide sample might help in better formulation development by improving its uniformity, flowability, and compactibility.

Powder X-ray Diffraction (PXRD) Analysis
The PXRD diffractograms of the control and Biofield Energy Treated flutamide samples are shown in Figure 1. There was the presence of sharp and intense peaks in the diffractograms of both the samples which indicated that both the samples are crystalline in nature. Besides, the peak intensities and the crystallite size corresponding to each characteristic peak was done for both the control and the Biofield Energy Treated sample (Table 2).
a: Denotes the percentage change in the peak intensity of Biofield Energy Treated sample with respect to the control sample.
b: Denotes the percentage change in the crystallite size of Biofield Energy Treated sample with respect to the control sample.
The highest peak intensity (100%) was observed at 2θ equal to 8.85° (Table 2, entry 1) in the PXRD diffractogram of the control sample, while at 8.72° in the Biofield Energy Treated sample; however, the Bragg’s angle of all the characteristic peaks of the Biofield Energy Treated sample were observed to differ from the control sample. Also, the peak intensities corresponding to these characteristic diffraction peaks in the Biofield Energy Treated sample were found to be significantly increased ranging from 7.02% to 29.41% compared to the control sample. Such alterations in the peak intensities of the peaks indicated the change in the crystallinity of the Biofield Energy Treated sample as compared to the control flutamide sample.
Besides, the crystallite sizes of the Biofield Energy Treated sample corresponding to those peaks were also observed to be significantly altered ranging from -9.17% to 17.86% as compared to the control sample. Also, the Biofield Energy Treated sample showed an increase in the average crystallite size (158.5nm) by 2.84% as compared to the control sample (154.12nm). The literature reported that the alterations in the peak intensity of the crystalline compound changes based on its crystal morphology [30]. Moreover, the alterations in the complete PXRD pattern may be considered as the proof of polymorphic transitions taken place in treated flutamide sample [31,32]. Thus, the overall results indicated the alterations in the crystallinity, crystallite size, and polymorphic form of the Biofield Energy Treated flutamide sample when compared with the control sample. Such changes might ensure its better drug performance in the formulation development than the untreated flutamide.
Thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA)/ Differential thermogravimetric analysis (DTG)
The TGA thermograms of the control and Biofield Energy Treated flutamide samples displayed one step of thermal degradation (Figure 2). The results revealed 2.21% increase in the total weight loss of the Biofield Energy Treated flutamide as compared with the control sample (Table 3). Also, the residue amount of the treated flutamide sample was reduced significantly by 64.16% when compared to the control sample (Table 3).
*denotes the percentage change of the Biofield Energy Treated sample with respect to the control sample,
Tmax = the temperature at which maximum weight loss takes place in TG or peak temperature in DTG.
The DTG thermograms of the control and Biofield Energy Treated sample showed a single peak (Figure 3). The results revealed that the onset of thermal degradation taken place at 134.68°C in the control flutamide sample, while it started earlier in the Biofield Energy Treated sample i.e., at 103.41°C. However, the maximum thermal degradation temperature (Tmax) of the treated flutamide sample was significantly increased by 10.16% as compared with the control sample (Table 3). Thus, the overall, TGA/DTG results showed that the thermal stability of the Biofield Energy Treated sample was significantly decreased as compared with the control flutamide sample.
Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) analysis
The DSC thermograms of both the control and the Biofield Energy Treated flutamide samples were shown in Figure 4 and the results were used to determine the melting and other thermal behaviours of the flutamide sample [33]. A sharp endothermic peak was evident in the thermograms of both the samples which are considered as the melting temperature of the samples. The peak was observed in the control sample at 113.23°C; while it was slightly decreased to 112.58°C in the Biofield Energy Treated flutamide sample. Moreover, the latent heat of fusion (ΔH) of the con trol sample was found as 107.2 J/g; whereas it was decreased to 97.15J/g in the Biofield Energy Treated sample. Hence, the results revealed a reduction in the melting point and the ΔHfusion of the Biofield Energy Treated flutamide by 0.57% and 9.37%, respectively as compared to the control sample (Table 4). It is presumed that there was might be some alterations in the molecular chains and the crystallization structure of the flutamide [33] due to the Biofield Energy Treatment that may cause the changes in the melting temperature and ΔH of the treated flutamide.
ΔH: Latent heat of fusion, *denotes the percentage change of the Biofield Energy Treated sample with respect to the control sample.
Conclusion
The study revealed that the Trivedi Effect®-Consciousness Energy Healing Treatment showed a significant impact on the particle size distribution, crystallite sizes, peak intensities, and the thermal properties of flutamide. The particle size values of the Alice’s Biofield Energy Treated flutamide were increased significantly by 15.82%, 16.36%, 1.05%, and 5.10% at d10, d50, d90, and D (4, 3), respectively compared to the control sample. The specific surface area of the Biofield Energy Treated sample was found to be decreased by 14.56% compared to the untreated flutamide sample. The increase in particle size might be helpful in providing the better compactibility, uniformity, and flowability to the treated flutamide sample. The PXRD results showed alterations in the Bragg’s angle of the highest intensity peak as well as the other peaks of the treated sample. Also, the peak intensities and crystallite sizes corresponding to those peaks of the treated flutamide sample showed alterations ranging of 7.02% to 29.41% and -9.17% to 17.86%, respectively as compared to the untreated sample. Similarly, the average crystallite size of the Biofield Energy Treated flutamide sample was also increased by 2.84% compared to the control sample. Besides, the total weight loss of the Biofield Energy Treated sample was increased by 2.21% in TGA; whereas, the residue amount was significantly reduced by 64.16% as compared with the control sample. The DTG study showed that the Tmax of the Biofield Energy Treated flutamide sample was significantly improved by 10.16% compared with the control sample. The Biofield Energy Treated sample revealed that the melting temperature and ΔHfusion were decreased by 0.57% and 9.37%, respectively as compared to the untreated flutamide sample. Thus, the thermal analysis indicated the less thermal stability of the Biofield Energy Treated sample as compared to the control sample. Overall, the Trivedi Effect®- Consciousness Energy Healing Treatment poses its impact on the flutamide sample, which might generate its new polymorphic form with altered crystallinity, particle size, and thermal stability. Such alterations in the Trivedi Effect® Treated flutamide may confirm its better designing in the form of nutraceutical and pharmaceutical formulations by providing better compactibility, flowability, and content uniformity, which might be used to offer better therapeutic response against prostate cancer, androgendependent skin and hair conditions including acne, seborrhea, hirsutism, and scalp hair loss, hyperandrogenism, as well useful for feminizing hormone therapy aimed at transgender women.

beneath the cut , you’ll find a much shorter compilation of odd factoids about these characters. factoids that, as usual, i came up with at 4am. well. some of these things, i’ve known for a while, but some of them are new.
𝐏𝐀𝐓𝐈𝐄𝐍𝐓 𝐅𝐈𝐋𝐄 𝟎𝟎𝟎𝟏. › alicia marie levesque boyd-whitley.
► medical issues ➔ none! even before the doctors got to her, she was a relatively healthy child. at worst, she had some seasonal bronchitis, but that only happened twice. ► knows far too much about ➔ parasites. she had to do a research project on them in her senior year and... yeah, no. fuck that. ► fears death via ➔ experimentation/surgery. no second guesses as to why. ► chances of being “evil” ➔ genuinely none.
𝐏𝐀𝐓𝐈𝐄𝐍𝐓 𝐅𝐈𝐋𝐄 𝟎𝟎𝟎𝟐. › amari rose kent.
► medical issues ➔ also none! she’s never even gotten sick. she can get sick when she’s dead, but as long as she’s alive, people need her to be healthy. ► knows far too much about ➔ natural disasters! tsunamis, earthquakes, tornadoes, you name it, she can spout some odd facts about it. ► fears death via ➔ overdose. because she’s gotten close to overdose a few times, the idea freaks her out. it’s part of why she hasn’t been overly tempted to take any drugs since the separation. ► chances of being “evil” ➔ slimmer than she thinks. yeah, she can do bad things and will do bad things. but... no, she could never truly harm anyone innocent.
𝐏𝐀𝐓𝐈𝐄𝐍𝐓 𝐅𝐈𝐋𝐄 𝟎𝟎𝟎𝟑. › camden wesley layton lahey.
► medical issues ➔ none. if he did have any in his youth, his dad never took him to the hospital to find out. ► knows far too much about ➔ dinosaurs. he wasn’t too interested in them as a kid, but he would talk to isaac about them when they were younger, so that the kid could focus on something other than their messy father. even when camden forgot everything else about his past life, he retained his strangely infinite knowledge about dinosaurs. ► fears death via ➔ explosions. that’s how he died the first time and even if he didn’t remember, it still freaks him out. ► chances of being “evil” ➔ none. he’s too good.
𝐏𝐀𝐓𝐈𝐄𝐍𝐓 𝐅𝐈𝐋𝐄 𝟎𝟎𝟎𝟒. › charles gerard argent.
► medical issues ➔ in a future plot, he’ll lose his hearing. at the time of writing, he’s physically healthy. ► knows far too much about ➔ horror movies. he doesn’t even like horror movies, but he could talk about them for hours. ► fears death via ➔ his own hand. he knows that, in all likeliness, that’s how he’s going to die. but it does freak him out that the one thing he can’t overcome is himself. ► chances of being “evil” ➔ not... as nonexistent as he would like to believe. he could never go full villain, but if someone that he loved needed him to do something awful, then he could.
𝐏𝐀𝐓𝐈𝐄𝐍𝐓 𝐅𝐈𝐋𝐄 𝟎𝟎𝟎𝟓. › cora vienna hale.
► medical issues ➔ none. ever since the darach thing, her immune system is slightly weaker than other werewolves’, but it’s not a huge concern. ► knows far too much about ➔ volcanoes. when she was traveling with deucalion, he would often drop her in a library with a bunch of books on geography and whatnot. and while she could have learned about pangea, she was much more fascinated by mounts kilimanjaro and vesuvius. as any well-adjusted twelve-year-old would be. ► fears death via ➔ sickness. she won’t say that it terrifies her, but it is... a little more obvious than she thinks. she gets the sniffles when winter comes around and starts bundling up. also has a very strong fear of losing her senses again, which has led to more panic attacks than she’ll ever talk about, thank you. ► chances of being “evil” ➔ not at all slim. above anything else, cora hale is a survivor. she doesn’t see “good” and “evil” so much as she sees “living” or “dying.” to be completely honest with you, if deucalion were to show up at her doorstep, she would follow him without a second thought, because she knows that’s where her survival is. she wouldn’t go against the pack, not even for him, but she wouldn’t try to play the good soldier, either. him aside, if you told cora to burn down beacon hills or slightly hurt the pack, she’d set fire to the whole goddamn world, so long as they were safe.
𝐏𝐀𝐓𝐈𝐄𝐍𝐓 𝐅𝐈𝐋𝐄 𝟎𝟎𝟎𝟕. › derek alexander hale.
► medical issues ➔ none. ► knows far too much about ➔ zombie physiology. yes, he is, in fact, a zombie buff. the inaccuracy of zombie movies (looking at you, twd) just... baffles him. if a zombie is canonically decaying, then there is no way that the same zombie will be around in five years. yes, there will be remains, but there is literally no way that bitch will be walking around after all that time. so, by all means, the zombie apocalypse would be much more manageable after about five years. he has had this discussion with his students many times. ► fears death via ➔ fire. this does not need an explanation. ► chances of being “evil” ➔ honestly, virtually none. maybe at one point, there would have been some temptation, but as it is? yeah, no. he couldn’t imagine doing anything remotely evil, then going home and having to face his pack.
𝐏𝐀𝐓𝐈𝐄𝐍𝐓 𝐅𝐈𝐋𝐄 𝟎𝟎𝟎𝟖. › dominic joseph kim.
► medical issues ➔ none. he’s suffered from alcohol poisoning before, but nothing chronic. ► knows far too much about ➔ demonic possession. this is something he’s always been interested in, because hello, demons. ► fears death via ➔ drowning. there’s an interesting discussion to be had there, about fearing something so inherently tied to oneself, but... yeah. as an athletic swimmer whose master element is water, he’s had many nightmares about drowning. ► chances of being “evil” ➔ absolutely none. he doesn’t even like confrontation, he can’t hurt peoples’ feelings. he can’t be evil.
𝐏𝐀𝐓𝐈𝐄𝐍𝐓 𝐅𝐈𝐋𝐄 𝟎𝟎𝟎𝟗. › elliot james aldridge.
► medical issues ➔ as a human, he had heart defects that, at the time, had not been named. his immune system was a mess and he had awful asthma, so he was always on the brink of death, until he did die. now, he’s a vampire, so he’s chilling. ► knows far too much about ➔ ancient gods and cult rituals. he started doing digging the second kali was resurrected. partially because he didn’t trust her, but mostly because he wanted to be able to provide comfort and insight if rohan ever needed it. ► fears death via ➔ wolf bite. admittedly, this didn’t really concern him until rohan almost died in his arms and he couldn’t save him. it’s not serious enough for him to side-eye any of the pack, but he... is more cautious when it comes to training than he used to be. ► chances of being “evil” ➔ not that “good” or “evil” are actual things, but he’s spent a very long time on the latter end of things, so... yeah, he could be evil. he’s not nearly as bad as he thinks he is, but he could be.
𝐏𝐀𝐓𝐈𝐄𝐍𝐓 𝐅𝐈𝐋𝐄 𝟎𝟎𝟏𝟎. › �� erica juliet reyes.
► medical issues ➔ before the bite, she had epilepsy. ► knows far too much about ➔ medieval monarchies. knowing derek turned her into a history buff, she hates it here. ► fears death via ➔ you would think seizures, right? no, hunters. she loves allison and danny so much, trusts them both with her life. but if some unknown comes anywhere near her with a weapon, she’s ripping throats out. ► chances of being “evil” ➔ honestly? none. being evil is lame, grow up.
𝐏𝐀𝐓𝐈𝐄𝐍𝐓 𝐅𝐈𝐋𝐄 𝟎𝟎𝟏𝟏. › fiona evelyn porter.
► medical issues ➔ i mean, she’s stupid, but physically healthy. ► knows far too much about ➔ historic epidemics and plagues. did she learn this so that she could better understand what kali and rohan lived through, and thus comfort them and reassure them that no such thing could ever happen again? yes! did she also learn so that she could figure out how to heal any terrifying sicknesses that came their way? also yes! ► fears death via ➔ being buried alive. again, something to be said about fearing your own element, but it is what it is. ► chances of being “evil” ➔ nonexistent, simple and plain.
𝐏𝐀𝐓𝐈𝐄𝐍𝐓 𝐅𝐈𝐋𝐄 𝟎𝟎𝟏𝟐. › hayden louisa romero.
► medical issues ➔ lupus. fae usually have stronger immune systems, because they’re physically weak, but the human part of her doesn’t have the same advantage. she can usually hide any symptoms (i.e. rashes, joint pain, etc.) with glamour, but she really is... very weak. worse off, since her skin and wing removal. that’s partially why she sleeps so much? she can’t sleep nearly as long as other fae, but she also can’t stay awake as long as they can, either. not to get into the lore here, but when fae are nursing, they can go up to a decade without sleep, out of protectiveness for their young, even if that child is adopted. to make up for this time, fae usually sleep for months up to a year when their children are old enough to care for themselves. (which, due to enhanced senses and whatnot, most fair children are pretty independent before their tenth birthday.) so, upon taking in wayne, hayden’s body automatically went into protection mode and she just... didn’t sleep for three years. however, she is also half-human? so she could have maybe went two more years without sleeping before her body shut down completely. and she also can’t sleep as long as other fae, because her body needs human care and nutrients, which is why she only slept for three weeks, rather than the full six months she should have taken. but, as a result of the unpredictable sleep schedule she put her body on, she’s much more prone to sicknesses now. once again, she covers it all up with glamour, but her body hasn’t even healed from the surgeries she underwent. notably, she would be... much better off with a faction. all fae can live for very long times, if not forever, because they choose when to stop aging. that, she can still do. however, her biology isn’t as... strong, because she’s on her own. seelie and unseelie fae are eternal factions, because they have (what amounts to) families. hayden’s... on her own. her mother is seelie, even though she’s estranged from the fae world, which is how she can damn near overdose every night and still not miss a beat. but hayden has been officially exiled from that world, so she has to be incredibly careful about what goes into her body and who/what she comes into contact with. that’s part of why she’s so fearful when it comes to touch; you never know what someone else has, and even a passing cold can be detrimental to her. all of that, on top of a pre-existing medical condition? it’s gonna bite her in the ass sooner than later, but she is perfectly happy to pretend otherwise. ► knows far too much about ➔ monster origin. when she found out that fae were real, she wanted to know what else was, so she started reading up on every monster under the bed. she can now tell you exactly what’s real and what isn’t, where each myth comes from, what’s actually harmful and what just wants a hug, etc. ► fears death via ➔ being crushed to death. again... very fragile bones. you know those barbells at the gym? even a bare one is enough to completely crush her chest. ► chances of being “evil” ➔ high-ish. given everything listed above, you can see why her priority is herself. if the cost for living one more year is being considered “evil,” that’s a moral dilemma she’s willing to live with.
𝐏𝐀𝐓𝐈𝐄𝐍𝐓 𝐅𝐈𝐋𝐄 𝟎𝟎𝟏𝟑. › judith wendy mayer.
► medical issues ➔ type one diabetes. she was born with it, discovered it when she was about three. does she do her best to stay healthy and properly fed, etc.? no! but she’s still alive, so take that, diabetis. ► knows far too much about ➔ marine biology! she has no interest in being a marine biologist, but she can babble about underwater animals until she’s blue in the face. even animals that are not so much underwater! i.e. coconut crabs. what the fuck is up with those, my dude. ► fears death via ➔ sugar imbalance. okay, okay, despite how bad she is about checking her sugar, it really does scare her sometimes? because sometimes, she gets very weak or dizzy or she drops, like, ten pounds in three days, and it freaks her out. ► chances of being “evil” ➔ extremely high. this will be explored in future plots, but despite what she believes, her alliance isn’t in good or evil, it’s... whatever it takes to be loved.
𝐏𝐀𝐓𝐈𝐄𝐍𝐓 𝐅𝐈𝐋𝐄 𝟎𝟎𝟏𝟒. › kali kaira laghari.
► medical issues ➔ none. even when she was 100% human, she was insanely healthy. much like amari, she’s never even been sick. aside from, y’know, the plague. ► knows far too much about ➔ dialects and accents. because she’s been reborn in so many different places, she can immediately pick up on those minor twangs and slangs and tell you where a person is from. ► fears death via ➔ much like cora, she fears dying via sickness. when this actually starts happening to her, she’ll put on a brave face. but the only time she ever got sick, she died? so it freaks her out! ► chances of being “evil” ➔ also extremely high. make no mistake, kali is incredibly well-adjusted, given all that she’s been through. but after it all, she’s not quite as pure and morally just as she used to be. convince a girl that she’s a god then tear her apart in every way you can, and see what kind of god she becomes.
𝐏𝐀𝐓𝐈𝐄𝐍𝐓 𝐅𝐈𝐋𝐄 𝟎𝟎𝟏𝟓. › kira fuyuko yukimura.
► medical issues ➔ none. this is honestly a result of hypochondriac parents, rather than kitsune biology or anything like that. she’d sneeze and her parents were on her ass. so now she’s the picture of health, if only because she has no choice. ► knows far too much about ➔ lost civilizations. upon learning that rohan, iliana and elliot were born in places that no longer exist, she grew interested in how much the world had changed? so she’s done a lot of research into worlds that have been lost, particularly so that she can talk to the vampires about their homes and know what they mean. ► fears death via ➔ something that she can’t see coming. and, though she would never say so, wolf bite. yeah, that whole battle of the beast thing... she is not over it. ► chances of being “evil” ➔ none, she’s too inherently good and is genuinely baffled at the thought of ever hurting anyone without reason.
𝐏𝐀𝐓𝐈𝐄𝐍𝐓 𝐅𝐈𝐋𝐄 𝟎𝟎𝟏𝟔. › liam stephen dunbar.
► medical issues ➔ none. his mental issues are hard enough to deal with, thank you, he’ll keep his body in good shape. ► knows far too much about ➔ aerodynamics. once upon a time, he wanted to be an astronaut. his biological dad is one, so. but... yeah, fuck that. ► fears death via ➔ wolfsbane. he has no idea why no one else seems to worry about it ever, but it freaks him the hell out? now, is this a result of being trapped in a well full of the stuff at one point? yes. will he talk about it? no. ► chances of being “evil” ➔ nonexistent. he can be mean. he can be brutal. but he could never be evil.
𝐏𝐀𝐓𝐈𝐄𝐍𝐓 𝐅𝐈𝐋𝐄 𝟎𝟎𝟏𝟕. › lydia charlene martin.
► medical issues ➔ none. honestly, if she ever had a take a sick day, she’s not sure beacon hills would survive. ► knows far too much about ➔ everything, but in particular, medicine. antidepressants, mood stabilizers, etc, and how to make those effective for the supernaturally-inclined. when jackson asked her to reproduce drugs that would work for him, she stayed up all night and day studying how the drugs were made and how she could replicate the effects for him. she figured it out incredibly fast, but she continues researching the subject, so that she can improve the drugs for him and provide any for anyone else who might need medicine but can’t take it. she’s also working on drugs that work as well as penicillin for the argents. ► fears death via ➔ not necessarily death via, but she does have a fear of being stalked. it’s happened to her before and it just terrifies her. she’s incredibly human and she’ll never be argent-strong, so if she’s ever cornered while she’s alone, she could be done for. and that’s a fear that sticks with her, even though she knows she’s almost always safe. anything else, she can live with. she doesn’t fear death. but she does fear being followed and helpless. ► chances of being “evil” ➔ extremely high. but where jude could be evil for love, lydia will be evil in love. you don’t even have to love her back. but if she loves you and the only way to keep you safe is to do awful things? then she’ll do those awful things and her conscience will be clear.
𝐏𝐀𝐓𝐈𝐄𝐍𝐓 𝐅𝐈𝐋𝐄 𝟎𝟎𝟏𝟖. › scott lucas mccall.
► medical issues ➔ before the bite, he had chronic asthma and bronchitis. ► knows far too much about ➔ psychology! he’s always been interested in knowing how brains work, but he grew especially interested after joining the pack. they all have some form of ptsd, and after the night they met elliot and cora was visibly prepared to fight all of them for him, scott started researching it. he wants to be able to understand all of the pack and why they react to things the way that they do, so he got into psych! too late to major in it, but never too late to learn about it. ► fears death via ➔ asphyxiation, honestly. even if he can no longer die of an asthma attack, he still carries around his inhaler, because he is genuinely terrified of being unable to breathe. ► chances of being “evil” ➔ absolutely nonexistent.
𝐏𝐀𝐓𝐈𝐄𝐍𝐓 𝐅𝐈𝐋𝐄 𝟎𝟎𝟏𝟗. › tatum coretta bellfleur.
► medical issues ➔ nothing in particular, but she does have a very weak immune system. winter baby who got sick literally the day after she was born, and her body never fully recovered from it. so now she catches every sniffle that comes around. would pretend otherwise, except amari does not let her get away with it. they always joke that amari never gets sick because tate is always sick. oddly enough, though, tatum can go a week without sleeping and be just fine, while amari gets a headache after one (1) night. ► knows far too much about ➔ classical music composition. despite singing at local bars and the like, she has no interest in music herself, but will hold full discussions with owen and amari over the art of composing a piano piece. ► fears death via ➔ starvation. this... also needs no explanation. she’s seen the depths of poverty, knows what it’s like to go without, and nothing scares her more than that. ► chances of being “evil” ➔ literally could not imagine. she’s a pacifist? doesn’t even hold malicious intent for those who hurt her? that said, tatum is extremely gullible. smart as heck, but so incredibly gullible. if peter hale asked her to work for him but never told her exactly what he was doing, then she would certainly go along with it, because she doesn’t realize what’s happening. but as long as she’s knowledgable of intentions, she balks at the idea of doing anything even slightly morally corrupt. do i bring this up because it might happen one day? ...maybe so. i’m bored and i’m considering it.
