Desk Pad for Office Home 33" x 14",PU Leather from Piboshi

This desk blotter is about 33 inches by 14 inches. It is made of Italian PU Leather. The desk blotter is waterproof, oil proof, and helps protect your desktop or tabletop from scratches and scuff marks. Great if you spill a drink, you can just wipe it up. If it gets dirty or sticky you can wipe it off with a damp cloth and it will be good as new. 

The desk blotter also works as a mouse pad. I used it with my mouse and it was smooth and easy to glide across. With the largeness of the desk blotter you could even play video games that  need the larger mouse pads. 

This desk blotter also features Double usable sides. The blotter only comes in black at this time. This desk blotter could also be used for other things like setting on a kitchen counter, with it's non skid protection you could set small appliances like a coffee maker or can opener or even a microwave on it. Personally this will be used in my craft room. I am always looking for ways to make building my creations easier. Easier to me is a way to stop them from sliding around while I am working on them.  This desk blotter is great for home or office. 

The blotter comes rolled in a tu be with a band around it to keep it rolled. Once you unroll it just set something on the edges for a little bit to flatten them out.

Book Description:

Seven of our country’s most gifted teens will become Nobels, hosts for the implantation of brilliant Mentor minds, in an effort to accelerate human progress.

But as the line between what’s possible and what’s right draws ever blurrier, the teens discover everything has a cost.

Scientists have created an evolved form of living known as Merged Consciousness, and sixteen-year-old Lake finds herself unable to merge with her Mentor.

Lake, the Nobel for Chemistry and Orfyn, the Nobel for Art, are two from among the inaugural class of Nobels, and with the best intent and motivation. But when Stryker, the Nobel for Peace, makes them question the motivation of the scientists behind the program, their world begins to unravel.

As the Nobels work to uncover the dark secrets of the program’s origins, everyone's a suspect and no one can be trusted, not even the other Nobels. 

As the Mentors begin to take over the bodies and minds of the Nobels, Lake and Orfyn must find a way to regain control before they lose all semblance or memory of their former selves.

Excerpt:

Mr. Blue points
to the document. “Sign this and change your life. Or don’t. It’s up to you.”

“What happens if
I say no?”

“The Darwin
Corporation will remain your legal guardian, but you’ll lose the
once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to become one of humanity’s greatest hopes.”

So basically,
he’s saying I’m stuck here either way. “Will I always be locked up?”

“That
depends on your choices.”     

I wait for him
to crack a smile. He doesn’t.

I break eye
contact and flip to the last page. There’s one short paragraph stating that
I’ve read the forty-one-page document (which I haven’t), I understand the risks
(which I don’t), and I buy into the idea that two minds are better than one (or
something like that). At the bottom, there’s a line with my name printed below
it.

“Is it
dangerous?” I ask, really wishing my voice hadn’t cracked.

Mr. Blue
hesitates, and for a moment he almost appears human. “Every medical procedure
has its risks, but the end result could change the world. And you’ll be one of
the few who have the ability to change it.”

What if I could
become the next Michelangelo? I’ve been given the chance to create art that makes
a difference. For now, and even hundreds of years to come. “What else can you
tell me about Bat?”

“He’s very
successful,” Mr. Blue says, taking a pen from his suit pocket. “And he’s
dying.”

“Can you give me
a little more than that?”

“He specifically
chose you.”

Nobody has ever
chosen me.

I grab Mr.
Blue’s pen and sign the document using the name I’m adopting. If I’m going to
share my brain with someone and become a ground-breaking artist, I’m doing it
as Orfyn.
