Let the drama ensue. (Roleplay partner wanted)

Hello! Thanks for taking the time to read this. You can call me Daria (:

It has been a few years since I've done this, but I've been thinking of coming back to it lately, and me catching this monster of a cold seemed to be the perfect excuse.

I'm looking for someone who can help me ease back into roleplaying. As I said, it's been a few years and I'm not 100% confident in my abilities. Something long term would be great.

So, my idea is demon x human, I'd prefer to play the human. I kind of have a plot line, if you could call it that.

Set in the distant-ish future (100 years or so), no city in particular.
The war between Heaven and Hell has been raging for about 100 years. No one knows for sure what happened, but demons, vampires and even warewolves are just few of the unspeakable terrors that now thrive and claim the earth as their own.
After the catastrophe, the humans that weren't captured or killed fled underground. Most of them remained there, but every so often, people traveled to the world above, some (the ones who weren't caught) even learned to adapt to their twisted new surroundings.
Eventually, the humans wanted their world back. The leaders of what was left of the human race decided the best plan of action was to send a lone agent to the world above. One who had been born, raised and trained into the black arts. Eventually, they found a girl, one whose power they feared almost as must as the demons.
She was sent above with two objectives:
Free the enslaved humans and silence the demon lord.
She leaves the underground determined and confident, but will she be able to focus on her mission in this exciting new world?

So, inbox me if you're interested.

Thanks again for reading.

Pinpointing history of droughts through exploration of tree rings: Unexpected complexity in U. S. West's patterns of drought

ScienceDaily (July 2, 2012) ? Through an exploration of tree rings and oxygen isotopes, researchers at the University of Pittsburgh are now able to better pinpoint the history of droughts in the arid and semiarid areas of the American West.

A paper published in the online July 2 issue of the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences explores the Medieval Climate Anomaly, a particularly warm period occurring in the northern hemisphere of the American West around 950 to 1250 C.E. While this time period is known as being a "dry period," the Pitt researchers have discovered an unexpected complexity to the patterns of drought.

"East of the Cascade Mountains, the Pacific Northwest is now dry and hot in the summer and wet in the winter," said Byron A. Steinman, principal investigator on the project who earned his PhD in geology from Pitt in 2011 and is now a postdoctoral researcher at Penn State University. "We've found that it may not have been dry in the winter in the Pacific Northwest during the Medieval Climate Anomaly."

Steinman, who worked with Pitt professor of geology and planetary science Mark B. Abbott, began by studying tree rings, which often can record past precipitation and temperatures. However, tree rings are more accurate at recording this information during the spring and summer months, when the tree is growing and not lying dormant. To determine the validity of the tree-ring data, the researchers decided to undertake a study of oxygen isotopes for comparison. They explored isotopes found in nearly 1,500 years of bottom-of-lake sediments from two bodies of water in Washington state: Castor Lake and Lime Lake. The isotopic composition of these sediments, says Steinman, can reflect the amount of water entering a lake, especially during the wet season.

The researchers paid particular attention to the calcium carbonate in the water (shown in the form of calcite), as the oxygen in this mineral relates directly to the isotope ratio of lake water. Castor Lake is on a plateau, and the water inflow comes only from precipitation and groundwater. Therefore, no water is lost through evaporation. However, Lime Lake loses the majority of its water through a permanent outflow stream. By comparing the two lakes, the researchers could determine the water balance between evaporation and precipitation.

To pinpoint the time of the drought, the researchers looked at two stable isotopes of oxygen -- oxygen 16 and oxygen 18 -- in the sediments. Oxygen 16 is lighter than oxygen 18, and so during evaporation more of it is released -- the calcite in the sediments containing more of the oxygen 18. If the lakes are full of water, however, there will be more oxygen 16 in the calcite. The layers of sediments that are laid down each year can be dated either using carbon 14 dating of organic material or by locating layers of tephra (volcanic ash).

In the end, however, what they found was a mismatch of data.

"The tree ring and isotope data matched up on a short-term, decadal scale," said Steinman. "However, on a longer-term, century scale, the records diverged. The tree-ring data suggests dry conditions during the Medieval Climate Anomaly summers while the isotope data suggest wetter-than-expected winters."

In the paper, the researchers suggest a strong centennial relationship over the past 1,500 years between winter precipitation and the climate variability patterns that shift about every 20 to 30 years in the Pacific (known as Pacific Decadal Oscillation-PDO). PDO is linked to the El Nino Southern Oscillation, a tropical phenomenon that influences global weather patterns.

"Before and during the Medieval Climate Anomaly, the North Pacific Ocean was warmer, and Washington had a greater precipitation than during the Little Ice Age, which occurred from 1450 to about 1850 C.E., when there was less precipitation," said Steinman.

Steinman hopes to continue this study, producing additional quantitative precipitation records with different lake systems, to better understand these climate phenomena.

Other researchers on this project were Michael E. Mann, professor of meteorology and geosciences and director of the Penn State Earth System Science Center; Nathan D. Stansell, a former Pitt Ph.D. student who graduated in 2009 and now a research fellow at The Ohio State University's Byrd Polar Research Center; and Bruce Finney, professor of biological sciences at Idaho State University.

1,000 fans welcome Italy home after Euro 2012

Associated Press Sports

updated 1:50 p.m. ET July 2, 2012

ROME (AP) -A thousand fans cheered loudly, applauded and sang the national anthem when Italy coach Cesare Prandelli and his players returned to Rome after having lost the European Championship final.

The squad was first greeted by about 200 workers Monday as they stepped off the plane at Rome's Fiumicino airport before departing on one of the four coaches reserved for the Italian delegation.

Italy lost 4-0 to Spain in the final on Sunday, and captain Gianluigi Buffon says "we are still bitterly disappointed, but we know that we had a great European Championship," adding "we played the final against the strongest team and not in the best conditions."

The loudest cheers were reserved for Buffon, Daniele De Rossi, Mario Balotelli, Antonio Cassano and, above all, for Prandelli, who was beaming broadly.

Algeria energy minister says OPEC may meet

ALGIERS, Algeria (AP) ? Algeria's energy minister has raised the possibility of an extraordinary meeting of OPEC countries to discuss falling oil prices.

Youcef Yousfi said Sunday in Algiers that it was agreed at the last OPEC gathering that there would be a meeting "to correct imbalances," if the market reached a certain point. He didn't say what that red line would be.

Benchmark crude had been hovering around $80 per barrel. But on Friday oil soared the most in more than three years after European leaders took surprisingly aggressive steps to halt a debt crisis that has undermined confidence in the global economy. Benchmark U.S. crude ended the week at $84.96 per barrel in New York.

Yousfi said there are 2 million more barrels on the market today than a year ago.
