- Blink, it is Good for You
As you sit, or stand, and type, remember to blink. Blinking is essential to the function of the eye as it helps spread tears across the surface of the cornea and conjunctiva while removing irritants. The eyelid provides suction across the eye from the tear duct to the entire eyeball to keep them from drying out. A healthy person usually blinks 10 to 15 times per minute but that blink rate may drop up to 80% when focusing on a task, such as typing.

- Camulod Chronicles - The Legend of the Skystone (Second Part)
This king, this monarch, mighty beyond ken, fashioned of glory, singing a song of swords, misting with magic madness mortal men, shall sire a legend, yet leave none to lead his host to triumph after he be lost. But death shall ne'er demean his destiny who, dying not, shall ever live and wait to be recalled.

- Camulod Chronicles - The Legend of the Skystone (First Part)
Out of the night sky there will fall a stone that hides a maiden born of murky deeps, a maid whose fire-fed, female mysteries shall give life to a lambent, gleaming blade, a blazing, shining sword whose potency breeds warriors. More than that, this weapon will contain a woman's wiles and draw dire deeds of men: shall name an age; shall crown a king, called of a mountain clan who dream of being drawn from dragon's seed; fell, forceful men, heroic, proud and strong, with greatness in their souls.
