If this team is a circus, Wade and LeBron are the tightrope walker (Wade) and the bearded lady (LeBron) all the villagers came to see, and Bosh is the elephant quietly eating peanuts in the back. Secondly: If Wade and LeBron's play has been mesmerizing recently, the real show has been their outfits during those postgame conferences. Round 1, Game 2: Win against Sixers. Here, LeBron says: Not only am I a magician with the basketball, but I'm doing things with collars and tie knots that won't appear in the pages of GQ until the year 2017, when Biff runs the world.

The activity is presented as an exhilarating, not-to-be-missed experience of a lifetime. Not surprisingly, absent from the over-hyped descriptions of promised tourist thrills is the reality of abuse, over-work and exploitation of tourist elephants. A blow-by-blow of the phajaan doesn’t make for light reading. And also a lot to hide.

PowerPoint custom connectors 1 Logic: create your own custom connector points in PowerPoint Connectors are very important tools in PowerPoint drawing. They attach themselves to PowerPoint shapes, and will move with that shape as it is moved around the slide. This tutorial will show many things: 1. How to add custom anchor points by: 2. drawing them, 3. pasting them as an enhanced metafile, 4. using a hidden autoshape. We start with an auto shape. In this case, a hexagon. When they are drawn, we then change them to something we can see against the background. Now it is time to look at the connectors. Connectors are cool little lines, with or without arrow ends, that cling to anchor points on auto shapes. I have selected a straight connector. This is what happens when the mouse is moved over an object with anchor points. Note the little blue dots where the hexagon lines change direction. When we click on the image at the left, the connector attaches itself to the closest node. Method Two © Glen Millar

"I daresay you haven't had much practice," said the Queen. Through the Looking Glass by L. The long standing challenge was that a single piece of paper, no matter the size, cannot be folded in half more than 7 or 8 times.

The Bane continued to wind her way through the trees. “Hello?” Instantly, the Bane sprang to her feet. “Wait!” The Bane, tensed like a wary animal, tilted her head. “I won’t hurt you. ‘Talk’ was relative term, Katrina knew. The Bane straightened up and stood before her, just feet away. She was entirely coated with high-gloss, black latex from head to toe.
