[First————- I want to settle the matter of using on Kirihara.]
Sogou Ayaka had buried her face in Takao Hijiri's b.r.e.a.s.t.s.
I said this with the intention of getting confirmation from her.
Upon my words, Sogou's shoulders twitched.
Everyone waited for her next response.
However————- Even after waiting for a while, no answer came back.
Instead, Hijiri spoke.
[You're right…… I also think we should talk about that first.]
Hijiri lowered her gaze to Sogou clinging to her chest……
[If you want to know how things went before today, I'll tell you more later. If there's anything we should talk about right now, it's about how I was saved by people who were indebted to Mimori-kun when I was dying, and that Vysis is an enemy that must be defeated.]
Choosing that moment to speak up……
[Regarding my …… I can only ask you to believe me. If you're worried about Kirihara's wounds, I don't mind using after treating him. There's still a lot of time before loses its effect.]
Hijiri turns her gaze from Sogou at her chest to me.
[That first insect you froze with , it was still within the 300-day duration, right? In other words, you still haven't been able to confirm its condition after 300 days had pa.s.sed.]
[For some reason, this skill distinguishes between the living and the dead. Those living that I froze are preserved————- In other words, they're under something like cryostasis. Have you ever heard of cryosleep in SciFi books or films…… They use this on important patients that had an illness that can't be cured at that time. In the future, after waking up from cryosleep, a cure may have already been developed. I also think that this Skill can be used that way.]
These words I said may have been sophistry, but there's nothing to deny about it.
Such a thing is possible.
Mimori Touka "sincerely" believes so.
[ deliberately distinguishes between the living and the dead. That's why…… I think there must be some special meaning behind it.]
Thereupon, with her face still buried in Hijiri's chest, Sogou spoke.
[…………Hijiri-san…… What do you think? His words…… about that ……]
[Let's see…… I think that's pretty reasonable. He's not telling any lie after all.]
As she said this, Hijiri seemed to have remembered something.
[Actually, my Unique Skill…… Through evolution, I'm able to see through lies. That's how I know Mimori-kun isn't lying.]
Sogou reacted at that, seemingly surprised.
I didn't know she had that ability.
That's something she still kept hidden from me huh. Well, that's just like Takao Hijiri…….
Speaking of which……
Seras got her ability to see through lies due to her Wind Spirit.
Perhaps, they may have derived it from the same principle.
It certainly is effective that she revealed her ability to detect lies to Sogou here.
From a look at the situation, it seemed like Sogou will probably believe Hijiri's words.
If my words had been deemed true by her, then she will believe my words as well.
Thereupon, speaking in a trembling voice……
[……Hey, Hijiri-san. Couldn't we just…… persuade Kirihara-kun…… to cooperate with us…… If I can just do it……]
[Unfortunately, I think there are too many uncertainties regarding Kirihara-kun right now.]
[If he's half-heartedly restrained, we run the risk of him becoming a major obstacle to returning to our original world afterward. I'm not too keen———– on fighting while keeping Kirihara's possible interference always in the corner of my mind.]
As if to take over her Elder Sister's words, Itsuki said in an easygoing tone.
[Elder Sister already said that, so isn't it fine to go with Mimori's idea? If Mimori uses that freezing skill, we can preserve his state in a fresh condition for an extended period of time? Besides…… Kirihara will definitely be nothing but a hindrance. He had always been one from the start.]
Sogou's body slightly trembled at that.
As Hijiri places her hand on Sogou's head……
[Itsuki.]
[Fuehh?]
[You should choose your words a little more carefully around Sogou-san.]
[Ueehhh——– Sorry. Uuuu…… E- Elder Sister scolded me……]
Shocked, Itsuki crouched herself smaller on the side.
……The atmosphere kinda feels idiotic.
She's that younger Takao who's good at academics, right……?
Not minding her younger sister, Hijiri softly hugged Sogou.
[The reason why you have to bear this burden like this, Sogou-san, is because I originally failed to a.s.sa.s.sinate Vysis…… You don't have to feel responsible for this happening, Sogou-san.]
[T- That isn't the case! Hijiri-san isn't responsible for what happened to me…… The one who made…… all my decisions was me…… It's because I had been…… relying on Hijiri-san…… too much……]
She said all that.
However, even now, Sogou Ayaka is relying on Takao Hijiri.
The person Sogou Ayaka absolutely relies on———– Hijiri Takao is currently her "axis".
After observing her like this, I became convinced.
At that moment———– Ayaka begins to cry again.
She wants Hijiri to accept all her messed-up emotions.
All her vigor had been driven with such a thought in mind.
……It seems like she had already reached her limits huh. In all sorts of ways, I mean.
However, the danger around Sogou I felt until Sogou came here had considerably disappeared.
I suppose it was the right decision to call Hijiri to deal with Sogou huh.
[So————]
I spoke.
[Will you accept me using on him, Sogou? No matter what the older Takao says, I can't——— I won't cast on Kirihara without your approval.]
This isn't a very pleasant way to do this……
Even if we are inciting her, we are essentially making her have the final words.
We're letting her make her own choice.
This is the best way to create a sense of conviction out of her.
I guess this is how Vysis got her way out of her too.
She had only been leading her.
That is, so that Sogou would ultimately herself would make the choice.
Her own actions, done by her own hands, because of her own decision.
Giving along with it the responsibility for making that choice.
I suppose this too can be called a curse.
A curse that she had put on herself.
In the end———– I am also doing the same thing as Vysis.
We're just the same.
However, I'm not someone who would choose my methods.
We could completely sense the inner conflicts in Sogou's mind.
*** You are reading on https://webnovelonline.com ***
However, neither Hijiri nor I.
However, they whispered in a low voice, so I can't catch it.
It's just……
"……if that's what Hijiri-san believes……"
For a moment, I think I heard such words.
After a few moments———– "I understand", Hijiri nodded.
[Mimori-kun…… will only be applied after Kirihara-kun's wounds are treated…… Will you abide by that condition?]
[Yeah, I'll go with that.]
[You're fine with this, right, Sogou-san?]
At her words, Sogou Ayaka——– Her face still plunged in Takao Hijiri's b.r.e.a.s.t.s, slightly nodded her head.
And thus……
Seras tended to the guy's wounds.
Itsuki also casted Recovery Magic on him.
While all that was happening, I was also present in that place..
If some kind of "problem" happens around Kirihara, I will immediately deal with it.
I watched Seras as she tended to Kirihara's wounds.
While she was concentrating on his treatment, she wiped the sweat from her forehead with her arm.
She must have been very tired from the battle earlier.
She had her hand on her chest huh.
No matter which era it was……
These words were spoken by an epitome of earnestness like Seras.
I suppose that's why these words straightforwardly resounded.
Words spoken from one good person to another.
In the end.
At the end of the day, I think that had been the deciding factor.
For someone like Sogou, a person like Seras is probably the right person for this role.
If this were something like the story of the two-person journey of Sogou Ayaka and Seras Ashrain……
If this were not a world where evil has run rampant among the public……
Such a story may have been more beautiful.
Perhaps, it may have been a more refreshing story.
[H- Hey———- I totally feel like I haven't had my spotlight……]
[Bururururu.]
Meanwhile, as if to cheer her up, Slei was rubbing her cheeks with Munin.
And so, just like that……
Kirihara's treatment finally ended.
[————-————-]
For 300 days————
Kirihara Takuto would be sleeping within ice.

Why Do Some Kids Put On Excess Weight?
Obesity in Indian children has increased significantly in the recent years. According to a study, after China, India has the largest number of obese children. Usually, 10 to 20% of the children between ages 5 to 17 years are overweight and obese in India. The parameter for measuring obesity in children and adults is BMI or Body Mass Index.
Genes play a vital role in causing obesity in children. If either of the parents is obese, there are high chances that the children will also be obese and the chances just get doubled if both the parents are obese. Children with no family history of obesity have lesser chances of being obese in comparison to the ones who have obesity in their genes.
Lifestyle or environmental conditions are also responsible for obesity in children. Technology, especially TV, smartphones and gadgets have attracted the attention of the modern generation children and they are so much involved with all these things that they prefer lying on their bed or couch rather that do some physical activity. Some families provide extra comfort to their children and misunderstand being overweight with being healthy. Some children are indulged in digital games rather than going outside and play real games that require physical movements. Another environmental factor that affects a child's health is lack of plying areas around the house. Also, the academics has also made the children become busy and push their limits to survive in the competition which is another reason they can't spend enough time playing real games or doing physical activities.
Food is one of the major culprits in the case of obesity in children. Children prefer eating junk foods or anything tempting whenever they go outside. The online food delivery apps have added to the comfort level. A family that encourages eating unhealthy foods can be responsible for the child's obesity. Eating high calorie foods and not doing much physical activity make children prone to obesity.
Another factor, which is often overlooked when we consider the causes of obesity, is psychology. A child learns and adapts many habits from his parents. If the parents prefer eating outside food or high-calorie foods and lead a lavish life where there is least scope of physical activities, children are more likely to turn obese. Sometimes, children who are stressed or bored eat too much to get rid of that specific mental state which leads to obesity.
Obesity in Indian children is an issue worth worrying. There are many complications associated with this condition like high blood pressure, diabetes, asthma, sleeping disorders etc. Not just obesity affects the health but it also brings down the self-esteem. Proper diet and regular exercise can be of great help for children suffering from obesity. Parents can also teach their children good eating and lifestyle related habits to prevent obesity in the initial stage only.

Piedmont EMC, located in Hillsborough, North Carolina receives power delivery from an investor owned utility (IOU) via a radial 44 kV line. The 44 kV line serves two Piedmont EMC 44/12.47 kV substations before terminating at a 44/5 kV substation dedicated to a pipeline customer immediately adjacent to the substation.
When the either of the customer motors start without an SVC present, a sag exceeding 10% is observed on the 44 kV system at both of other substations which are serving residential loads. The 5 kV pipeline bus sags to approximately 0.83 per unit voltage during these motor startups. The voltage level is adequate for a prolonged start, but extends the duration of the voltage sags seen at the other two substations.
This customer has been operating since 1973, but the sag-related complaints grew as residential load increased at the two adjacent substations and as Piedmont EMC member dependence on digital electronics grew.
The initial effort to address motor starting sags used fast-switched capacitors. Classic capacitor problems were experienced like switching transients when capacitors came on-line, sags when VAR demand outstripped supplied capacitance as the capacitors were energized, and over-voltages prior to capacitor switching off. An excellent discussion of the alternatives subsequently considered for this application is contained a paper written by Ed Thomas .
Of all the solutions analyzed, the best solution to solve the voltage sag issue was the distribution SVC. Reduced-voltage soft-starting was considered, but its limited benefits and customer concerns about starting torque eliminated it as an alternative. Other alternatives that were considered and discarded included series capacitors.
Once a distribution voltage SVC was chosen, Piedmont EMC considered where to locate the SVC(s). Their careful analysis led to some highly pertinent observations.
Locating an SVC on the 5 kV bus provided the best isolation due to the impedance between the 5 kV station and the other two Piedmont EMC substations. However, Piedmont EMC had no other 5 kV substations, and a 5 kV SVC would not be reusable.
Placing the SVC directly on the 44 kV line was considered and discarded as being more expensive. Transformation would be required, and the total price of the SVC system could easily double.
Placing the SVC on one or more 12.47 kV buses was studied. Simulations suggested that use of a single SVC system at the closest substation would yield results comparable with individual SVCs at each substation for about half the cost.
The chosen alternative is shown Below.
The SVC selected for this application was rated at 8.4 MVAR, 3-phase, and it provides 7 levels of capacitive support in increments of 1240 kVAR. This step-size equates to a 3.2% step voltage change at nominal voltage, and was chosen using the GE Flicker Curve based on the frequency of the motor starts. Subsequent field measurements showed the effective voltage resolution of the SVC being below 3%, since VARs are applied in response to ramp voltage changes. Figure 4 shows the actual results of the starting of one of the pump motors with the SVC in-service.
The SVC unit was installed in 2004 and has performed reliably since then. In 2008, the SVC control was upgraded and it continued to operate well until 2016, when it was upgraded to the latest generation control system.
Piedmont's careful consideration of alternative SVC locations resulted in a system with substantial residual value. By taking the responsibility for the SVC's pad and wiring, they minimized their costs and developed an initial familiarity with the SVC. While AMSC provided startup services, and specialty maintenance (e.g.., controller upgrade), most of the regular SVC maintenance is performed by Piedmont EMC line crews.
Employing just one Instrumentation Technician, Piedmont elected to joint T-Star's remote monitoring and maintenance program in 2016. T-Star regularly accesses the SVC's data logging history, checks system performance, and determines when and if to adjust operating parameters. T-Star is able to diagnose any actual problems down to the component level for replacement by EMC personnel, and can diagnose many latent problems such as failing (but not yet completely failed) capacitors.

Yeah, well, the sounds are recorded from a real Evo X. Except that it wasn't a R4 Evo... http://youtu.be/4Nnxm7vSnJ4 Sadly I have to admit that the real R4 sounds quite a lot different than that. I understand that Codies had to make a compromise with this car because they had recorded a Evo X but unfortunately it doesn't sound like the R4 at all. Also, since we're now talking about the ingame Evo X, the engine is wrong in my opinion too. I know that a real R4 doesn't rev basically at all above 5500-6000rpm. The one we have ingame easily revs over 7000rpm though. The car should have bas

The Peugeot 207 S2000 wouldn't fit in 2000s or 2010s class because a S2000 car is completely different in terms of performance compared to WRC cars. Naturally aspirated 2.0L engine with less aero than WRC car... Yeah, would be silly to mix it into either of those classes. If it won't get its own class, I think they should add it into the R4 class and call it something like "R4 & S2000" because those cars are the cars that actually compete(d) in real life. S2000 car has advantage in suspension etc. but R4 car wins in torque and for example straight line speed. :)
There is Quality Control but very few (if any) are a rally specialist.

The foreign language calls are recorded separately and then checked by our testers. Sadly the only rally specialists that use them are you guys which is

The Master of Mountains: Nicholas Roerich
By Kaavya Pillai
Nikolai Konstantinovich Roerich was not only one of the most eminent artists of the 20th century, but a scholar, humanitarian and writer as well. His works have transgressed beyond geographical boundaries to now be forever immortalised as art of great significance. The most impactful of his works are studies of the Himalayan mountain range, a two-decade long fascination for the artist.
Born on October 9, 1874 in St. Petersburg, Russia, Nikolai Konstantinovich Roerich joined the Academy of Art at the young age of sixteen. To quieten concerns from his lawyer father about pursuing a career in art, he joined St. Petersburg University at the same time.
In 1906 the artist was made the Director of the Academy for the Encouragement of Fine Arts in Russia. He would go on to become the President of the World for Art soon after in 1910 and would also exhibit his works in London and the USA. Due to rising political tensions in their home country and health issues, Nicholas along with wife Helena, and sons George and Svetoslav decided to move to India in 1923.
His arrival in India would grant him access to the vast lands along with its rich culture and diverse people. On his travels through India with his family, Roerich would meet some of the greatest minds of the country including the Tagores. In 1928, he settled in Naggar in the Kullu Valley, located at the Himalayan foothills, after several trekking expeditions throughout Asia. In the same year he would set up Uruswati Himalayan Research Institute where expeditions to study and research places in and around the Himalayas were conducted. And thus, his quintessential series of works documenting the Himalayan range would begin.
He had first realised his love for Indian mountains when he had seen a painting of a mountain range at a young age. He later discovered that this majestic painting was that of Kanchenjunga and decided that he would someday visit the peak and paint it himself.
Himalayas,Sikkim
In over 20 years of painting the Himalayas in magnificent colour compositions, using vivid imagery, it is evident that the artist grew familiar and developed a love for the ranges. The attention to detail in his works, his penchant for understanding both nature and culture through art and the drama achieved in these paintings surpass any other landscapes of the time. These would in turn inspire generations of artists to come. He often explored his interest in mysticism and spirituality through these works. The mountains are depicted in shifting tones and hues, through sunsets and sunrises, sometimes with tiny figures in the forefront to portray the mighty scale of the peaks.
Sasser Passage
In his lifetime, Roerich would go on to create a massive oeuvre with over 500 works that were concerned only with the mountain ranges that captured his interest. Also called the 'Apostle of Culture and Peace', the artist's legacy has forever impacted art history and continues to inspire.
AstaGuru was conceptualised in the year 2008 with the sole purpose of creating a safe and secure platform to conduct online auctions for Indian, Contemporary & Modern Art.

The Atlanta Falcons earned their first win of the 2016 season with a 35-28 road victory over the Oakland Raiders. A tightly contested game throughout, the Falcons were able to get two fourth-quarter scores to seal away the victory.
Quarterback Matt Ryan led the way by completing 26 of 34 passes for 396 yards with three touchdowns and an interception. He was well protected by a venerated Raiders pass rush, who only dropped him for a sack once. Running back Devonta Freeman led the way on the ground with 93 rushing yards on 17 carries. Backup Tevin Coleman produced a score, while finishing the game with 46 yards on 12 carries.
In the air, wide receiver Julio Jones was resurgent after a quiet first week by leading the team with 106 receiving yards on five receptions with a touchdown. Tight end Jacob Tamme added five grabs himself for 75 yards and a touchdown of his own. Backup tight end Austin Hooper caught three passes for 84 yards, while Taylor Gabriel and Mohamed Sanu also each had three receptions for 28 and 19 yards, respectively. Justin Hardy caught the other touchdown with his only reception of the day being an eight-yard score.
Kicker Matt Bryant connected on both of his field-goal tries from 21 and 20 yards out. Matt Bosher had three punts for an average of 44 yards, with one placed inside the 20-yard line. Eric Weems returned a pair of punts for 74 yards, including a 73-yard return. Aldrick Robinson had the team's lone kickoff return for 11 yards.
The Falcons offense was able to produce 528 total yards, their most since their season-opening win against the New Orleans Saints in 2014 when they tallied 568 yards. The team's 139 rushing yards were the most in their last 11 games dating back to the middle of the 2015 season. The team improved in the red zone, able to convert three of six trips into touchdowns. The Falcons were especially better in the second half of the game, with 249 of their 389 passing yards coming then and converting three of four third-down attempts and three of four red-zone trips. The big play was a big part of the Falcons offensive success, with seven plays of 20 or more yards generated against the Raiders.
The Raiders were able to put up 454 total yards, with 287 coming in the second half when they were mostly playing from behind. However the Falcons defense was able to hold them to five of 12 successful third-down conversions, with the Raiders only converting two of six in the second half. The Raiders however were able to finish the game with 155 rushing yards and convert three of three red-zone trips into touchdowns.
Safety Kemal Ishmael led the Falcons defense with 15 tackles and also had a pass breakup. Cornerback Robert Alford (five tackles); safety Ricardo Allen (seven tackles); defensive end Vic Beasley (two tackles, one sack); linebacker Deion Jones (10 tackles); cornerback Desmond Trufant (four tackles, one pass breakup) and linebacker Sean Weatherspoon (nine tackles) had notable games.
Ryan's first pass is to Jones for nine yards to start their first drive off well. Freeman made a nice cut in the hole to avoid an oncoming defender and gained eight yards on second down. Ryan is sacked for a seven-yard loss on his next dropback, with Raiders defensive tackle Stacy McGee overpowering right guard Chris Chester up the middle. Ryan then hit Tamme over the middle for 14 yards to set up a 3rd-and-3. However offsides on Raiders defensive end Jihad Ward gave Falcons a free first down. Toss left to Freeman got a seven-yard gain before the running back converted another first down on his next carry of three yards. After a false start by right tackle Ryan Schraeder, Raiders defensive end Khalil Mack blew past left tackle Jake Matthews to hit Ryan and force an incompletion. That set up a 3rd-and-9, during which Ryan was pressured and no receiving got open, leading to an incomplete pass to Tamme. The Falcons punted and Bosher's high kick forced the Raiders to start their first possession at their six-yard line.
Deion Jones missed a tackle in the hole against Raiders running back Latavis Murray, who gained nine yards for a first down on the Raiders' second play from scrimmage. Two plays later Weatherspoon mad a tackle in the flat against tight end Lee Smith for a gain of one yard leading to a 3rd-and-5. Raiders quarterback Derek Carr checked down to tight end Clive Walford and Ishmael came up to make the stop and force a punt. Marquette King boomed a 64-yard punt that pushed the Falcons to start their next drive at the four-yard line, thanks to a holding penalty on Falcons linebacker LaRoy Reynolds pushing them even further back.
The Falcons were unable to move the ball with an incomplete pass and a run for no gain from Coleman to start the series. Gabriel then made his first grab as a Falcon for an 11-yard gain to convert on third down. Two runs by Coleman gained a combined six yards and Falcons then found themselves in a 3rd-and-4 situation. Ryan extended the play outside the pocket but his throw while rolling left was too high to Hardy for an incompletion. Bosher booted a punt 43 yards, with the Raiders starting their drive at their 36-yard line.
A screen pass to Cooper went for five yards before Deion Jones was able to cut him down in pursuit. Carr threw a fade to Cooper on the next play but it's overthrown with Trufant in tight coverage. Yet an offsides penalty on Derrick Shelby gifted the Raiders a first down on 3rd-and-5. After a pair of short runs by the Raiders, the Falcons defense faced another 3rd-and-6 situation. Trufant broke up a crossing pattern to Cooper but his knee buckled upon a bad landing after a jumping celebration at the end of the play. He exited the game but was able to return on the next series. King's 40-yard punt was downed at the Falcons nine-yard line and they started another drive backed up near their end zone.
Freeman found room on his first two carries of the drive, gaining a combined 17 yards to start the Falcons drive. Ryan's first pass connected to Tamme on a rollout for a gain of 15 yards. Coleman then gained six yards up the middle on his carry, followed by another Ryan rollout to the opposite side of the field, where he hit Hooper for six yards to close out the first quarter. Ryan threw a deep comeback to Robinson off play action for 20 yards to start the second quarter. Ryan then hit Toilolo on a rollout in the flat for a 16-yard gain to put the ball in the red zone. Freeman got two carries for a combined six yards up the middle, setting up a 3rd-and-4 from the Raiders five-yard line. Ryan went for Sanu on the speed out in the flat, but the pass was deflected by a Raiders defender and Sanu was only able to gain one yard before cornerback Sean Smith brought him down for the stop. Matt Bryant kicked a 21-yard field goal to give the Falcons the first lead of the game at 3-0 with 11:58 left in the second quarter.
Carr started the next Raiders drive by throwing over Ishmael to wide receiver Michael Crabtree for a 10-yard gain. Two plays later, Murray made a 10-yard grab in the flat to convert for a first down. Two plays after that, Raiders wideout Seth Roberts made a quick three-yard grab in the flat to set up a 3rd-and-6. On third down, Cooper made a leaping grab over the middle for a big 25-yard gain to get the ball into Falcons territory. Carr then dialed up a deep shot to Crabtree, but overthrew him with Alford making a leaping interception in the end zone. However the Falcons cornerback pushed off just before making the grab and was called for pass interference. That put the ball at the Falcons one-yard line and Murray punched it in on the next play, giving the Raiders a 7-3 lead with less than eight minutes left in the first half.
On the second play from scrimmage on the ensuing Falcons series, Ryan underthrew Sanu on a deep crossing pattern. Ryan then hit Tamme for the second time on the drive for a 19-yard gain to move the ball into Raiders territory. Ryan threw behind Sanu on second down for another incomplete pass. Robinson made a nice diving grab over the middle to convert on a 10-yard catch on the ensuing third down. Freeman found room on the counter up the middle for nine yards before converting on a two-yard run up the middle on the next down. Two plays later Jones sped past Sean Smith untouched on a slant for a 21-yard touchdown. That allowed the Falcons to retake the lead 10-7 with 4:46 left in the half.
Raiders running back Taiwan Jones muffed the kickoff but recovers at their two-yard line. Crabtree made a nine-yard grab in the flat on a swing pass, followed by running back DeAndre Washington burst up the middle for a big 26-yard gain before Ricardo Allen dragged him down from behind. On the next play, Tyson Jackson nailed Carr from behind, but not before he was able to complete a six-yard check down in the flat to Washington. A holding call on Lee Smith pushed the Raiders back to a 2nd-and-14, which resulted in Carr scrambling out of bounds for a gain of no yards, which counted for the Falcons' first sack of the season. The credit was given to Vic Beasley, who was the closest Falcon defender. That brought about the two-minute warning, with the Raiders having the ball at their 33-yard line. Weatherspoon delivered a nice hit on Walford on third down after a three-yard gain to force another Raiders punt. Weems found a wall of blockers after a 55-yard punt by King, returning the kick 73 yards before King saved a touchdown with a horse-collar tackle from behind. That penalty tacked on an additional nine yards and the Falcons started their final series of the first half at the Raiders nine-yard line.
The Falcons proceeded to feed Coleman on first and second down, who gained three yards on each play. Then on 3rd-and-goal from three-yard line, the Falcons dialed up a quick screen to Coleman, who was quickly stopped by Raiders linebacker Malcolm Smith for a one-yard gain. Despite the favorable field position gifted by the big special-teams play from Weems, the Falcons wound up settling for another field goal. Bryant hit the 20-yard kick and the Falcons extended their lead to 13-7 with 38 seconds remaining in the first half.
The Raiders proceeded to move the ball downfield with a series of short throws, with Carr completing his first four passes on the drive for a combined 23 yards before the Raiders used their first timeout with 16 seconds left on the clock. Carr then avoided pressure and flipped a pass to Lee Smith, who got out of bounds a four-yard gain at the Falcons 48-yard line with nine seconds left in the half. Walford dropped a quick slant on the next down, which could've put the Raiders firmly in field-goal range. With six seconds left the Raiders threw to Roberts on a pick play, gaining eight yards before he got out of bounds with two seconds left. Sebastian Janikowski then attempted a very long 58-yard field goal, but the kick was wide left and well short, pulling the first half to a close with the Raiders still down 13-7.
The Raiders started the opening possession of the second half with Carr hitting Crabtree along the sideline for a quick 10-yard gain. Murray then ran twice up the middle for a gain of seven combined yards on the next two downs. On third down, a quick slant to Roberts was off the mark and the Raiders were forced to punt. King booted a 64-yard punt, which resulted in a touchback. However Raiders head coach Jack Del Rio challenged whether the Falcons had 12 men on the field and after an official review, the penalty was called with Falcons safety DaShon Goldson unable to get off the field in time before the ball was snapped. That gifted the Raiders a first down at their 41-yard line, which they subsequently fully took advantage of. On their next offensive snap, wide receiver Johnny Holton took an end-around 14 yards before he was knocked out of bounds. Carr's next pass connected with Lee Smith for a 12-yard gain, which was followed by a seven-yard run by Murray. Carr then hit Walford on a deep pass, who walked into the end zone after Trufant slipped on the coverage for a 31-yard score. That allowed the Raiders to retake the lead 14-13 with little more than 11 minutes to go in the third quarter.
The Falcon responded quickly with Ryan's first pass going for 44 yards on a connection with Hooper after stepping up in the pocket and finding the rookie tight end streaking behind the defense in a busted coverage. Freeman then carried the ball 18 yards after breaking a tackle on a run to the right side. Ryan tried to force a throw to Tamme in the end zone, but threw behind the tight end and it was picked off by a leaping Raiders cornerback David Amerson for a touchback.
The Raiders looked to capitalize with a 28-yard run by Richard on a draw play, but the big gain was nullified by a holding call on right guard Gabe Jackson. Richard however made Weatherspoon miss in the flat before being dragged down by Deion Jones on a 10-yard reception to bring about a 3rd-and-9. Carr then hit Cooper on a comeback along the sideline near the sticks, but it was initially ruled an eight-yard completion and the Raiders were forced to punt. However Del Rio challenged the spot of the ball and the initial ruling was overturned with Cooper getting a first down on a nine-yard reception. However the Falcons defense subsequently stepped up with Carr missing a first-down throw to Crabtree, followed by a solid stop for no gain by Vic Beasley on Richard. On the ensuing third down, Ishmael made a nice open-field tackle on Murray after a three-yard gain to force another King punt.
Ryan connected with Coleman on first down for a 24-yard gain on a slant. The Falcons' next play was a play-action fake that involved a throwback from Ryan to Hooper, who snuck out the back door for a 34-yard gain. That put the ball deep in Raiders territory. Three plays later, Ryan rolled out of the pocket once more before finding Tamme underneath. The tight end turned it up after the catch before diving in the end zone for a 14-yard score. The Falcons opted to go for two points, going with an empty backfield. It fooled the Raiders, as Ryan ran a quarterback draw for the conversion and the Falcons had a 21-14 lead with 3:42 left in the third quarter.
On second down of the ensuing Raiders series, Murray was able to avoid Jonathan Babineaux's penetration in the backfield and bounce the play to the edge for a 15-yard gain. Carr then scrambled for a five-yard gain followed by a seven-yard completion to Walford. Two runs by Washington gained nine yards to set up a 3rd-and-1 as the third quarter came to a close. Fullback Jamize Olawale found a gaping hole up the middle for an 11-yard gain, dragging cornerback Brian Poole in the process. Two plays later, Murray bounced a play to the edge and gained 18 yards before he was knocked out of bounds at the Falcons two-yard line. But on the next play, Jones came downhill with bad intentions to stuff Murray for no gain on a run up the middle. Carr rolled out of the pocket on second down, but his pass to Cooper in the end zone was deflected by both Ishmael and Allen to fall incomplete. Adrian Clayborn then flushed Carr out of the pocket on third down, but his pass was incomplete out of the back of the end zone to wide receiver Andre Holmes. Del Rio opted to go for it on 4th-and-goal and Carr connected with Crabtree on a quick slant thanks to a pick on Alford for the two-yard touchdown. That tied the game 21-21 with exactly 12 minutes to go in the fourth quarter.
The Falcons responded with a strong drive on their ensuing possession. Freeman gained 12 yards on a run off the right side to start the drive. Ryan then connected with Jones on his next two passes, the first one being for eight yards before dialing up a bomb off play action for 48 yards. That put the ball at the Raiders 12-yard line, with the Falcons quickly facing a 3rd-and-6 from the eight-yard line after two gains of minimal yards on first and second down. Ryan tried a quick slant to Coleman, but the ball deflected off his chest and high into the air. Luckily Hardy was there to catch the deflection for a touchdown, resulting in an eight-yard score and pushing the Falcons' lead to 28-21 with nine-and-a-half minutes remaining in the fourth quarter.
The Falcons defense once again responded with a quick stop, with Carr's pass to Cooper on third down being overthrown. But the three-and-out was nullified thanks to Trufant being flagged for pass interference on the play and giving the Raiders a fresh set of downs at their 41-yard line. After a pair of runs by Richard for a combined eight yards, Carr was able to avoid Falcons pressure and find an open Cooper on a scramble drill, who snuck past Trufant untouched for a 51-yard touchdown. However Cooper was flagged for illegal touching after going out of bounds before the catch and the score was nullified. That brought about another 4th-and-2 situation for the Raiders, with Del Rio opting to go for it from their 49-yard line with 7:16 left in the game. Richard was stopped after a gain of one yard by Ishmael and the Falcons took over at midfield with 7:12 left.
Freeman gained seven combined yards on the first two plays, with the Falcons soon facing a critical 3rd-and-3. Ryan's pass was deflected at the line, but luckily Toilolo found himself in the right place to make the five-yard grab and conversion. With the Raiders on their heels, Ryan and the Falcons dialed up a play-action fake to Freeman and then hit Jones for a gain of 20 yards on a slant. After an offsides penalty on the Raiders, Coleman broke a couple of tackles on a 13-yard run up the middle for a touchdown to push Atlanta's lead to 35-21 with 4:35 left in the game.
Similar to the drive at the end of the first half, Carr would connect on several of his passes to move the Raiders quickly downfield. After an initial overthrow to Roberts out of bounds, Carr completed his next five passes for a combined 68 yards to get the ball down to the Falcons six-yard line. Carr's next incompletion came when he couldn't find an open receiver and threw it out of bounds to bring about a 2nd-and-goal. Carr connected on his next pass however, getting outside the pocket and finding Holmes in the back of the end zone for a six-yard score to cut the Falcon lead to seven points with 2:12 left in the game.
Instead of gambling on the onside kick, the Raiders kicked it deep with only Robinson back on the return. He was stopped at the Falcons 13-yard line. After a run for a loss of one yard by Freeman on first down, the Falcons dialed up a play-action fake and screen pass to Gabriel, who gained eight yards just as the two-minute warning hit. The Falcons converted with a 15-yard slant to Sanu, who was able to sneak open behind a bunch formation on the right side. That conversion forced the Raiders to use their second timeout with 1:49 left in the game. The next three plays for the Falcons were consecutive runs to Coleman, gaining just five yards but forcing the Raiders to use their final timeout. The Falcons used a timeout to stop the clock with 10 seconds left before Bosher booted a 60-yard punt in the end zone for a touchback.
With just two seconds remaining, Carr hit Cooper on a slant for a 17-yard slant before he lateraled it backwards. After a few more laterals, Crabtree was pushed out of bounds at the Raiders 26-yard line after the clock expired and the Falcons held onto the win.
The Falcons will travel next week to face their NFC South division rival New Orleans Saints on Monday Night Football, who have begun the year 0-2. Since Ryan joined the Falcons in 2008, the team is 1-5 in primetime road games, with their only victory coming on a Saturday night contest against the Detroit Lions back in 2011. That includes four Monday night losses, including two to the Saints in 2009 and 2011, respectively. Overall Ryan has a 2-6 record as a starter on Monday night while the Saints have a 10-4 record on Monday nights since Drew Brees took over quarterback back in 2006. That includes a 7-3 record at home.
The Falcons are 2-8 when facing the Saints on the road since 2006, with their most recent win coming in 2014 in a 30-14 victory. The Falcons are 4-3 in the second games of a consecutive road stands when the first game is a win. Meanwhile the Saints are 12-3 over the past four seasons when playing at home immediately after a road loss, which included a 10-game winning streak from the middle of 2012 through the 2014 season.

Yesterday morning I went for a lovely stroll in my neighborhood before meeting two of my literary friends for a late lunch at Grace 1720 in Norcross Georgia. On my stroll I took the time to look at the landscape around me and opened my mind to the sounds of nature. People need to take the time in the day for oneself to reflect and to appreciate what we have. Too often we are so focused on any hardships that we are going through, we lose sight of the good.
Ana Raquel is working on a story and Deborah Mantella is working on her second book to be published hopefully soon! They both have so many creative ideas that inspires me to keep working on my own stories and projects. Deborah's story. "My Sweet Vidalia" is a wonderful read and this is a book that you want to hold the book in your hand. Below is the book blurb and I want to encourage you all to read her story. Women especially….
Tomorrow, I'm sharing a chapter from Janet Stafford's book series, Saint Maggie. This is an important series for our American History on several levels and I hope you take the time to come back tomorrow to read a sample of her work.
Before I sign off, I want to thank all the book bloggers and readers out there for supporting stories and the authors who write them. Happy Easter and God bless.
On July 4, 1955, in rural Georgia, an act of violence threatens the life of Vidalia Lee Kandal Jackson's pre-born daughter. Despite the direst of circumstances, the spirit of the lost child refuses to leave her ill-equipped young mother's side.
For as long as she is needed―through troubled pregnancies, through poverty, through spousal abuse and agonizing betrayals―Cieli Mae, the determined spirit child, narrates their journey. Serving as a safe place and sounding board for Vidalia's innermost thoughts and confusions, lending a strength to her momma's emerging voice, Cieli Mae provides her own special brand of comfort and encouragement, all the while honoring the restrictions imposed by her otherworldly status.
Vidalia finds further support in such unlikely townsfolk and relations as Doc Feldman, Gamma Gert and her Wild Women of God, and, most particularly, in Ruby Pearl Banks, the kind, courageous church lady, who has suffered her own share of heartache in their small Southern town of yesteryear's prejudices and presumptions.
My Sweet Vidalia is wise and witty, outstanding for its use of vibrant, poetic language and understated Southern dialect, as well as Mantella's clear-eyed observations of race relations as human relations, a cast of unforgettable characters, an in-depth exploration of the ties that bind, and its creative perspective. My Sweet Vidalia is a rare, wonderful, and complex look at hope, strength, the unparalleled power of unconditional love, and a young mother's refusal to give up.

Barack Obama won the Nobel Peace Prize earlier this week. Over the last decade the only requirement to win the prize was that the nominee had to be critical of George W. Bush (see Al Gore, Mohamed El Baradei and Jimmy Carter).
President Obama has broken new ground here. Nominations for potential winners of the 2009 Nobel Peace Prize ended on February 1. The president took office only 12 days earlier on January 20.
So there you have it. The short path to the Nobel Peace Prize: Party, go to meetings, skip church, release federal funding to pay for abortions in foreign countries, party some more.
