Ohh more like this tg comics. I love TG Curse 10/10
PS:
I want to see comics:
'boy transformation in to friend stepmother'
'boy transformation in to cheerleader/bimbo'

First, let me say Joe, that I'm a fan. But this wasn't your best, but keep the the stories and comics coming our way.

I'm sorry we didn't get you on this one. Hopefully we'll satisfy you on the next.

Good to see you back Joe, I was getting worried there for awhile.

We weren't going anywhere. It just takes time to make stuff, that's all.

Fantastic! So glad to see more comic format stories!

I'm always a big fan of mind alteration (though not mind control) but generally i don't like magic as I find it kinda 'cheap.' However the one exception I make is when the magic changes not only the person but the world around him/her at the same time such that no one is really cognisant of the change (basically everyone is mind altered). Hence I did like this one albeit not as much as The Golden Palace or A Curious Curse both of which are similar in their 'world changes along' themes.
I think this one felt a lot less natural than TGP or ACC as basically everything was controlled by the step witch with a specific goal in mind. In both TGP and ACC although large changes were happening everything felt natural with all the old and new relationships being built and modified in ways that went with the flow. In I didn't really like how in TSW old relationships and new ones were made and broken more because his step witch wanted them to as it felt more like she was making a puppet than a daughter.
That being said this is just my personal feeling and not all stories need to have exactly the same 'flow.' A story about a stepford daughter transformation has its place. The comic was very well illustrated with various transition very well shown although I did like his/her penultimate look more than his/her ultimate look as the penultimate looked more natural and I did enjoy it, especially some of the middle scenes which really showed how his/her outlook was changing.

Magic is a little cheap, which is why I don't use it too often. But to do a short comic requires some shortcuts, and magic is the ultimate shortcut. As for Golden Palace and Curious Curse, they were happier endings than this one.
I like his 'next-to-last' look too, but the last look was the clincher to the story.
Thanks for the feedback!

bought the book and loved it, the artwork is really great and natural looking, great story!

Thank you. It's great that people like it so much.

Most of our children are still driven to school.But whether we like it or not, we still have an auto-oriented community, said Coun. Judy Dueck. People still need their cars to get to work, mostly outside of Maple Ridge, she added.Its fun to walk but its not fun to walk with 12 bags of groceries,added Coun. Cheryl Ashlie, saying people have to be realistic.King said later that research has shown that making some streets pedestrian only boosts sales in stores along that street.The idea may be too much too soon for businesses along 224th Street, said Ineke Boekhorst, executive-director with the Down-town Maple Ridge Business Improvement Association.I think it would be fantastic for the future. At this time, there would be quite a bit of opposition.We are just not there yet.Its even difcult for festival organizers to close 224th Street briefy between Lougheed High-way and Dewdney Trunk Road for their events.Our society is just too much chained to the car still. Its just too hard to close down the core to trafc.She would support a survey on the idea though, if council wanted to pursue it.King said more specifc ideas may come from the social planning advisory committee or the parks and rec commission which will comment on the healthier community plan.Colleen Flanagan/THE NEWSImprovements to downtown Maple Ridge had active living in mind.

And the choices are becoming clear.You have a new B.C. Liberal leader, who has tacked to the centre on the minimum wage and business taxes in an effort to seek forgiveness for the high-handed administration that lost the publics trust.And you have two opposition parties that are entirely reactionary in their ap-proach to todays fast-changing world.There isnt much to say at this point about the B.C. Conservatives under John Cummins. They are against modern treaty settlements, the carbon tax and (I think) the HST. They stand for lower taxes, but so far that doesnt include a reduced sales tax rate.The rest of their platform is platitudes, with enough of a whiff of protest to pave a path for an NDP government.And the NDP manages to make the B.C. Conservatives look modern.In January, I described how the B.C. NDP constitution still formally endorses the government taking over major industries, and explicitly rejects all for-prot activity. I wont re-quote the con-voluted Marxist language, which boils down to state good, competition bad.A reader provides a real-time example of how this principle would apply to a problem confronting the B.C. gov-ernment. To prevent another riot in Vancouver, the government should supervise an orderly redistribution of Stanley Cups.This core principle of socialism, an 80-year-old relic, was debated at the na-tional partys convention in Vancouver on the weekend. Socialist dead-enders rallied to keep it alive, rejecting vague new wording that favours social demo-cratic principles to ensure economic and social equality. This isnt just an academic discussion for party conventions. One of the last acts of the NDP opposition in the B.C. legislature this spring was to propose a legislated end to poverty.According to their bill, B.C. should create a Ministry of Poverty Reduction with annual goals for imposing the redistribution of wealth.The Poverty Reduction Act contains a weasel-worded denition of poverty: insufcient money to acquire and maintain economic self-reliance and facilitate integration into and partici-pation in society.Does this mean a guaranteed annual income? Can people achieve economic self-reliance by collecting welfare? Does anyone actually believe this stuff?If you believe unionized state monopo-lies are the best business model, I guess so. I wont elaborate on the fringe parties such as Chris Delaneys B.C. First, a splinter from the B.C. Conservative stump.The Green Party is the only one other than the B.C. Liberals that looks to the future. Perhaps too far in the future. The Greens want a dramatically increased carbon tax and a transition to a steady state economy that doesnt try to produce and consume more. Try eliminating poverty with that program.I frequently get letters from people who accuse me of parroting the govern-ments line on issues such as the HST and poverty. If there are political alter-natives out there that make actual sense in todays world, Id love to hear about them. Until then, these are the choices.Any day now, NDP leader Adrian Dix might start to unveil the positive alterna-tive he has promised for an election that may come this fall. That will be some-thing to examine closely.Right now, hes urging you to throw that chair.

Innocent or not, laws exist in this country to pro-tect those who may not be mature enough to know better, and to ensure a fair trial for all.That seems forgotten in the case of Nathan Koty-lak, in the age of the internet.It is for a judge or jury to decide his fate, not just anyonestaringatapictureorwatchingavideo clip, or reporting on such an incident.Kotylak has already been suspended from the junior national water polo team, and missed his graduation ceremony.

There are so many things to worry about when youre expecting. Luckily, giving up your cat doesnt have to be one of them. Proper precautions are all thats needed.Toxoplasmosis is an infection that can (can, not will) be transmitted from cats to humans via the litter pan. Its caused by a para-site and it commonly causes very mild, u-like symptoms that last only a few days. If an expectant mom gets toxoplasmosis, it can cause a miscarriage or birth defects in her baby. But congenital toxoplasmosis is rare. Cats get the parasite if they eat contaminated raw meat, birds or mice. Indoor cats who eat only prepack-aged food will not get it.While cats are the only species that shed the infec-tious stage of toxoplasmosis in their feces, other animals can spread the disease if their infected meat is eaten without proper cooking. Eating undercooked meat is the most common cause of toxoplasmosis, not the family cat.Actually, the odds of catch-ing it from your cat are low. When a cat is exposed for the rst time, he will excrete the oocysts, which cause the infection, and he will do so for only two weeks. Once a cat has had toxo-plasmosis, he acquires im-munity and can only rarely be reinfected.An outdoor hunting cat is often exposed as a kitten and is less likely to transmit the infection as he ages. Furthermore, the oocysts must incubate for one to ve days to become infective, so if a cats litter is changed daily, exposure to infective oocysts is unlikely. The incubation only starts when the oocysts leave the cats body and have access to oxygen. Lastly, stroking your cat will not expose you to infec-tion.So, considering the pos-sible routes of infection raw or undercooked meat, contaminated soil, and cats the following steps should keep you and your baby safe during your pregnancy: cook meat well (to at least 70 degrees C) and avoid raw cured meat such as Parma ham; wash your hands, uten-sils and work surfaces after handling raw meat; avoid unpasteurized milk/milk products; wash raw produce; wear gloves when gardening and wash your hands after; cover kids sand boxes so cats arent tempted; have someone else clean the litter tray while youre pregnant.If there is nobody else to clean the litter tray, you can still do it safely. Use disposable gloves, and use a mask just to make sure you dont ingest any litter dust stirred up by scooping. Empty the litter tray daily and soak the tray for ve minutes with boiling water (dont rely on chemical disinfection). If you empty the tray daily, then even if a cat is excreting oocysts, they will not have sporulated and will not be infectious yet. Lastly, wash your hands after removing the gloves.If you follow these precau-tions, you and your baby can both enjoy your pet while your little one grows up.Brigitta MacMillan is a volunteer at Katies Place, an animal shelter.Cats and pregnancyClaudia, 15, arrived at the shelter after an expectant mother no longer wanted a cat in the home.

It measures the hearts electric activity, blood pressure and heart rate while the patient exercises by walking on a treadmill. At Ridge Meadows Hospital, up to 45 patients a week can be tested on the ETT. For these 45 patients, it can mean pinpointing the cause of unexplained chest pain. If a patient has had a heart attack or heart surgery, it can help determine how much work or exercise can be done safely. It may also be recommended if a patient is experiencing irregular heartbeats, dizziness, or excessive fatigue. The equipment that this years fundraising will help to purchase is crucial in saving lives in our communities. This donation, and the purchase of an ETT with treadmill, will immediately impact patient care, said Dr. Winston Tsui, Cardiologist at RMH. H & I ROOFINGA Gift of CelebrationWhen Mr. Harjit Singh Rai and Mrs. Inderjit Rai, owners of H & I Roofing, planned the wedding celebrations for their nephew, Jaspal Singh Mann, they decided to celebrate more than just wedding vows. They chose to also celebrate their health, and the health care providers in Maple Ridge and Pitt Meadows, by making a $10,000 donation to Ridge Meadows Hospital Foundation. When my family and friends need medical attention we go to Ridge Meadows Hospital. They are always very good to us. We love living in Maple Ridge and are grateful to have such excellent medical care for our loved ones, our neighbours, and customers. We all benefit from having a community hospital and we believe it is our responsibility as residents of Maple Ridge to help, said Mr. Rai. The Rai family has been very generous to the RMHF in the past as well, making annual gifts to help purchase life saving equipment. It is through generous donations like this that our hospital has state-of-the-art equipment and funding for education and new programs.HEALTH INVESTMENT GRANTCancer Survivors: Stride to ThriveFrom a health and wellness perspective, walking as a form of regular exercise has been shown to have many benefits, not the least of which is to mitigate the effects of chronic health conditions like cancer.Through the Foundations new Health Investment Grant, we were pleased to partner with MRPM Parks & Leisure Services and Becker & Company to provide the funds needed to launch a pilot walking program Stride To Thrive for women dealing with cancer. This program provided the opportunity for breast cancer survivors to get active in order to improve their physical and mental health and to have fun with like-minded friends at the same time. Walking together increases the fitness and social aspects of the group, encouraging everyone to get outside, share their stories, and support each other. It is truly inspirational to see how quickly the participants levels of fitness improved and how much they enjoy coming to the sessions. As one participant was heard to say, Its time to live!We are pleased to report that despite a challenging economic climate post Olympic Games that Ridge Meadows Hospital Foundation (RMHF) was able to achieve our annual goals for 20102011. Over the last year, RMHF gave grants totalling $443,856to Ridge Meadows Hospital (RMH), Fraser Health Authority (Maple Ridge and Pitt Meadows) and other health care partners in our communities. We extend our sincere thanks to our extraordinary donorsyou are our true friends. I am grateful and humbled by the generosity of our two communities and how they respond when needs arise. And as our needs expand, our Foundation Board members, staff and volunteers remain committed to ensuring you and your families, and all the residents of our communities, have access to high quality health care services, close to home.A thriving Foundation must establish a clear direction to navigate through times of change. So in 2009 the RMHF Board of Directors developed and approved a three year strategic plan incorporating the mission Investing in better health through community partnerships with four core goals: 1. To focus on investing wisely in better health for the citizens of our two communities; 2. To investigate partnership opportunities with community organizations and other Foundations to increase revenue, minimize costs, eliminate duplication, and maximize effect on the health of the community; 3. To attract new donors; and, 4. To develop a new marketing strategy for the RMHF.In response to our first goal, in 20102011, RMHF granted funding for equipment, research, and education programs at Ridge Meadows Hospital and Fraser Health departments in Maple Ridge and Pitt Meadows, but also agreed to grants outside MESSAGE FROM THE CHAIRWe extend our sincere thanks to our extraordinary donors.Tank you for your generosity. We couldnt have done it without you.of the walls of Ridge Meadows Hospital. Grants were approved for innovative programming which contributes to good health such as the Its A Girls World program in cooperation with MR/PM Parks and Recreation. This offered the opportunity for young girls to learn about nutrition and physical activity through positive mentorship. The Stride to Thrive walking and support group was also established for breast cancer survivors with great success. These programs, and others we funded, represent new partnerships for the Foundation and have helped us to begin addressing our second goal. Partnering with many local service clubs, businesses and not-for-profit organizations in a wide variety of fundraising initiatives has further enhanced our vision of working more closely with others toward our common goals. Beyond these new programs, virtually every department at RMH was touched by your support.In response to goals three and four we continued to share with you our message of needmuch of the clinical equipment necessary for effective health care would not be available but for your donations. We can only put vital equipment in the hands of our caregivers with your help. By communicating our need more effectively, we will engage our loyal donors and spread our message to other residents. SHOPPERS DRUG MARTGrowing a Healthy CommunityFor the third year in a row, the Shoppers Drug Mart Tree of Life campaign has had a direct impact on the health of women in our community.Annette Tsang, owner of Pitt Meadows Shoppers Drug Mart is proud of her staff and her customers and said Its wonderful to be part of a community that values their hospital and health care so generously year after year.

Although she did not know Sue that well, Mary was touched, flattered, and honoured that Sue would ask her and so agreed.As Mary told me a little more about Sues background, I knew that Mary would have more work on her hands than she bargained for. Sue had recently left a marriage of more than 40 years and had divorced. As a result of the marital breakup, her two grown sons were estranged from her. Soon after, she began a live-in relationship with another man. Because of the divorce and the estrangement, Sue had a Will drawn up and excluded her two sons as beneficiaries.As an executor, Mary would be responsible to carry out the terms of Sues Will. The estate would consist of the assets Sue had at her death. The Will gave her instructions.Under normal circumstances settling an estate can be a very complicated and time consuming process taking an average of 18 months but Sues estate would take longer. Sue had an up to date Will but it was not something she had discussed with her family due to the estrangement. By not providing for her sons in the Will, she had invited potential legal action.What Mary didnt know, that by her agreement to act as executor, she had placed herself right in the middle of difficult family dynamics. Sue likely didnt know that what she saw as quite a simple matter could potentially lead to significant financial and emotional problems for her family and for her executor, Mary.Choosing an executor, deciding on who or what charity should be beneficiaries, recognizing the tax implications of settling your estate are just some of the considerations in developing an Estate Plan.In the whole Will and estate planning process, we advise you seek professional advice. After all, no two estates are the same. What works for your friend, may not work for you. It is best to enlist the help of your lawyer, accountant, and financial advisor to help investigate the best possible financial structure for you.OPTION 1: Monthly contributionYour monthly gift will add up to a larger gift and make even more of a difference.

The project involves the replacement of the four existing radial spillway gates and the existing radial gate hoists. To operate the gates, BCHydro installed a new crane in 2010. This crane is required to lift and lower the gates and is moved into position on a rail that is embedded in the roadway. BC Hydro will be replacing these rails starting mid-June, 2011. A one lane closure of Dewdney Trunk Road for six to eight weeks is required to complete this work. Priority access will be given to emergency vehicles and the school bus. Periodic road closures of Dewdney Trunk Road will continue to be required over the next two years to facilitate the replacement of the spillway gates. In general, these will be short-term (1015 minutes) or single lane closures. To install the new gates, a full road closure of approximately three days will be required four times during the two-year project. Loop Trail will be closed over Blind Slough Dam during construction. BC Hydro will re-open road and pedestrian access over the dam when construction schedules allow (e.g. primarily evenings and weekends).HAYWARD LAKE RESERVOIR LOWER WATER LEVELS AND HAYWARD STREET ROAD CLOSUREReservoir Drawdown: May 24June 24 Road Closure: May 30June 24Starting May 24, 2011 the Hayward Lake reservoir water level will be lowered to accommodate annual maintenance on the Ruskin Dam spillway gates. Lowering of the reservoir will begin on Tuesday, May 24 to reach the elevation of approximately 34.5 metres in four days. Hayward Street over Ruskin Dam will also be closed Monday to Saturday, from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. from May 30 to June 24.Lower than average water levels will expose steep shorelines and slippery slopes along Hayward Beach and the entire reservoir shore. The beach can be used with caution, but the water will not be accessible. The Hayward boat launch and dog beach will be closed. The picnic grounds will remain open and available for public use. Trails will remain open; however hikers will be unable to complete the Railway/Reservoir Trail loop due to the closure of both Ruskin Dam and the Floating Bridge at Hairsine Creek.An environmental management plan has been developed to protect sh and wildlife during the lower water levels.The water will begin rising again on Friday, June 24, 2011. Normal operating levels will return well before Canada Day, July 1.For more information on these projects, visit bchydro.com or email LMSCommunityrelations@bchydro.com.For 50 years, BC Hydro has been providing clean, reliable electricity to our customers.
