Imaginalis has just just published 'Grains of Pollen, in Twilight', the next flash in the sequence of stories that precede my (as yet unpublished) novel: Machine Songs (working title).
If you want to read them in order, have a look at their separate page in the menu.
I'm very excited to announce that my story 'Time Out at the Café Metropole' has been published in Perihelion!
This story is in the same 'Universe' as my novel 'The Scion'. The Sassrit and their henchmen, the shapeshifting Jarthiala, both feature. The events in the story are however unrelated to the novel, occurring centuries beforehand.
Note: this story is no longer available on line (23.05.15). | 2019-04-23T18:59:52Z | http://www.guytmartland.co.uk/2014/11/ |

The __svc keyword declares a SuperVisor Call (SVC) function taking up to four integer-like arguments and returning up to four results in a value_in_regs structure.
__svc is a function qualifier. It affects the type of a function.
This causes function invocations to be compiled inline as an AAPCS-compliant operation that behaves similarly to a normal call to a function.
The __value_in_regs qualifier can be used to specify that a small structure of up to 16 bytes is returned in registers, rather than by the usual structure-passing mechanism defined in the AAPCS.

Chevron and Anadarko Petroleum announced plans to join forces in a $33 billion deal on Friday.
It expects to realize $2 billion in synergies from the deal, including $1 billion in annual cost savings - raising the prospect of significant job cuts - and another $1 billion from lower capital spending. However, it expects to assume roughly $15 billion in debt from the deal.
Anadarko investors cheered the deal, sending the oil-and-gas explorer and producer's stock up 30% in pre-market trading to around $61 - close to Chevron's offer of $65. Chevron shareholders seemed less thrilled - the company's shares slid 5%.

As busy as I've been recently, I haven't taken a lot of pictures. I guess this last week or two I've just wanted to enjoy things and put the camera down a bit. Not for long though! I still ended up getting some pictures.
The following two were taken on a beach trip I went on with my family! We hiked to one of the really cool viewpoints above this beach (where their dog almost died from running over the edge), found some sweet cliffs, and watched the sunset on Oswald West State Park.
I also had court for my stupid ticket, but the trial was pushed out another month. I asked for a reduced fine if I plead 'no contest', but the judge said no. So I said "Fine. Not guilty!"
Also, my headlights finally work again, so I could finally drive at night!
Unfortunately it was all direct sunlight the whole weekend, so the pictures kinda sucked.
Funny story though! I pick up these hitchhikers, right? So we're driving for over an hour when I ask them to pick a place to be dropped off at. As we're heading there, we pass another vanagon, who also had their windows down. The hitchhikers yelled out to him - "What's up man?!"
Five minutes later we pull off to the side of the road and THAT VAN pulls over right in front of us! Dude gets out of his van, waves at my hitchhikers and goes "Hey! Do you guys need a ride?"
So they get out of my vanagon, into his, and they take off!! They told me in all their ten years of hitchhiking that has never happened to them, hahaha.
THEN, after a week of work I had a double weekend, split by two days of work in between. First weekend - pool party, cliff jumping, barbeque, sunset on the roof. Second weekend - Crater Lake, Toketee Falls, Toketee Lake, Umpqua hot springs.
I'm also almost broke, but you know. Worth it. | 2019-04-26T11:43:04Z | http://jkeller.photography/blog/toketee-the-gem |

Let's officiate dis blog by reminiscing about my holidays. I love to travel but it's more to shop for great stuff rather than sightseeing. In December 2006, my family & I went for a holiday in London & Paris. The trip was great although it was freaking cold that time.
If you happen to be visiting London, I would advice you to stay @ the hotel near to the Victoria Station. It's easier for U to travel using public transportation (tube & bus). Believe me, it's nothing like the public transport in Malaysia. 1 thing is dat you juz have to learn how to read the guide.
Hmm shopping? I didn't shop in Paris coz it was expensive but we went to Le Champ Elysees for window shopping. In London, mostly we shop @ Oxford Street. Harrods? Emm... we only shop sounvenires there.
This is my sis & I at the heart of London.
This is Adam. He was staying there at that time & kind enough to take us sightseeing. Now he's already back in KL. Behind us is the 'London Eye'. I didn't ride it though coz I reckoned it was expensive. Would rather save my money for shopping. As usual, typical me.
guards. Simply adore the horses. They could juz stood there quietly for hours.
We went to Chelsea coz it was the nearest from our hotel. I don't watch football ok. So save ur comments bout Chelsea.
In Paris. Recognize this so-called pyramid? Yes, it's in 1 of the scenes in Da Vincci's Code movie. | 2019-04-21T10:30:48Z | http://leinnazir.blogspot.com/2009/12/holiday-to-london-paris-dec-2006.html |
My name is Sarah Maxwell, I don't particularly like exercise and I never go to the gym. Nothing strange in that you might think, but I’m a personal trainer! Aside from that, I am first and foremost a real person - my life, like that of most women these days - is mental. I run my own business from home, with two teenage kids, a husband, numerous rescue chickens, rescue guinea pigs and the occasional extra rescue dog.
I know that in the time it would take me to get in the car and drive to the gym I could have done a load of washing; answered all my emails and started making dinner. However, I also know that when I do exercise, my body releases chemical substances known as endorphins, which relieves stress and make me feel good psychologically as well as physically - not a bad thing when the Menopause is gesticulating rudely at me from around the corner.
My personal journey has taught me that body confidence comes from self-respect and self-love. Over the years I have been many shapes and sizes… I unhappily starved myself as a teen, then after giving birth to my first baby in my 30s, I fell into the trap of believing I should be Superwoman as soon as I was discharged clutching my 'Bounty Bag'. I felt physically and mentally crushed comparing myself to the famous freaks of nature being paraded around by the press, who were inconsiderate enough to give birth at exactly the same time as me. Of course I also had the added pressure of being a Personal Trainer and miracles were expected of me - one close friend actually pointed out that I hadn’t lost weight as fast as she thought I would. Crushing to say the least.
When I finally stopped trying to be perfect, I maintained my weight and haven't looked back. Of course, like all normal women, I have wobbly bits, but now I'm in my 40s, I’m finally ok with them. I have no desire to be a 50 year-old woman with a six-pack.
It’s so important to be your own person - to ignore the barrage of media images of the perfect woman and the perfect family life. You don’t need to fit a mould, instead you should focus (as I did) on what you are good at and appreciate yourself for who you are. Surround yourself with positive people who really care about you and you’ll find that the energy they give you will be without boundaries. Take the emphasis off body shape and weight. Focus instead on health and strength. Your body will react by firming up and looking great without beating yourself up about it. | 2019-04-24T12:54:55Z | https://www.thisgirlisonfire.co.uk/features-1/2018/6/1/fighting-fit |
This newsletter could easily be subtitled “Preventing Stupid Doctor Mistakes”. If I can help just one of you avoid a 6 or 7-figure disaster, I’ve done my good deed for the day, and you have covered the cost of your subscription for life.
Never sign anything you haven’t read.
You say “Of course”. Well, what’s obvious to some people isn’t obvious to all (or most) people. In fact, it’s hearing the following story that encouraged me to write The Physician’s Guide to Investing: A Practical Approach to Building Wealth.
About 15 years ago a group of physicians (one sure sign of a loser is when all the potential investors are physicians), were approached by non-US citizen (you must always be wary of investing with foreign nationals) about a sweet, can’t miss opportunity. The physicians were to put up some money and sign notes. After barely an hour of discussion and (very weak) questions (they did not wish to offend a man who was about to change their lives), the majority of physicians signed the contracts—contracts that weren’t even in English. I’ll repeat that in case you missed it: the contracts were not in English.
In short order, the deal fell apart, costing them all between $3M and $10M. Some were forced into bankruptcy, and all will be working until they’re 70 just to get out of the hole. When a physician who didn’t sign up, the one who told me the story, asked one of his (ex) partners why he participated, he said he would have kicked himself if he were left out and was still working and taking call while his partners retired in luxury in Boca Raton. Let’s call this what it is—greed and stupidity.
Always have an attorney look over a contract.
Your attorney may charge a couple of hundred bucks, but if they save you tens or hundreds of thousands, you’re way, way ahead. They always seem to find something of importance you passed over.
Everyone should have a personal attorney anyway. When you start in practice, you might ask your senior partner who they use as their personal attorney. You should take the junior person in that group. A good general rule: you want your physician, lawyer and accountant to be younger than you. You don’t want them retiring on you: you want to retire on them.
This would seem obvious for major contracts, such as those involving your job or sale of a home, but it applies to everything. Ex: all standard credit card contracts include an arbitration clause, which is (of course) quite favorable to the creditor. When you sign the contract, just put above your name that you will not accept arbitration.
Our capitalistic democracy is based on the protection of private property and the sanctity of contracts. The US Constitution, Article I, Section 10, says “No State shall enter into a Treaty, Alliance or Confederation; grant Letters of Marque and Reprisal; coin money; emit Bills of Credit; make any Thing but gold and silver Coin a Tender in Payments of Debts (RMD: don’t you love that one): pass any Bill of Attainder, ex post facto Law, or Law impairing the Obligation of Contracts, or grant any Title…”.
It’s important when something breaks to a new high or new low: people are willing to pay more than they ever paid before, or willing to sell for a lower price than they would previously accept. Last week all three major averages, the DJIA, the S&P 500 and the NASDAQ, finished at record highs. The Russell 2000 Small Cap Index and XLF (an ETF of the largest financials) finished at the upper part of their range and are on the verge of breaking out. The VIX (Volatility Index, or “fear” index) is at multi-year lows.
RMD comment: It’s hard not to be bullish. The 2 basic rules of stock market investing are 1) don’t fight the Fed, and 2) don’t fight the tape. The tape is bullish.
Blips in the market can occur because of anything, but significant moves are based on fundamentals. If Mr. Trump and the Republicans can come through with the simplification of regulations and taxes (esp. corporate tax reform), it will be a tremendous boost to the economy.
The expected upside breakout in the US Dollar seems to have stalled. Interest rates remain flat and the precious metals are doing well. I’ll discuss this in more detail in the next few weeks.
This is from a long-time coin/bullion dealer re: last week’s letter on Platinum (Pt) and Palladium (Pd): “I enjoyed it and thought it was spot on. Since these metals are mined and traded mostly in other countries, they can be volatile and unpredictable”.
RMD comment: To remind you, I recommend the average investor avoid Pt and Pd. I will note though, that Pd hit a high of about $800 almost 15 years ago, and is on the verge of breaking out (but I would still let it go). | 2019-04-23T12:23:54Z | https://thephysicianinvestor.com/publicnewsletters/contracts |

I was the last to arrive at the meeting point, the other two were waiting for me.
It was awkward for me to see the pair of teenager and old lady smiling at me, wearing matching dresses.
I look at the neatly stacked books, each one an exquisite creation, resting in one of the underground black market booths.
The salesman eyes me suspiciously, until I pick a book up written by a visionary author, and swipe my card, purchasing the rare item for a small fortune.

Chicken in a Barrel’s new location brings something special to Kapaa, Hawaii.
Chicken in a Barrel, a fast-casual franchise based in Kauai, recently franchised a new location in Kapaa. It is the first and only establishment with iPourIt’s self-serve technology on the island of Kaua’i. iPourIt installed a beer wall consisting of 14 self-serve taps.
This is the sixth Chicken in a Barrel location, but the first with a self-serve beer wall. Owner of the Kapaa location, Eric Taylor, first contacted iPourIt in December 2017 with an interest in the self-pour concept.
“In the competitive world of fast-casual food, you need an edge and a draw. We got that by installing a self-serve beer wall with a good selection of craft beers,” says Eric.
Chicken in a Barrel features a new spin on BBQ with slow-smoked barbecued meats made in custom-made drums and has been awarded Hawaii’s Best BBQ four years in a row. The new Kapaa location offers 14 self-serve taps, featuring rotating craft beers, wines, and ciders.
The self-serve beer wall offers Chicken in a Barrel patrons a new experience, allowing them to pour their own beverages and pay by the pour. iPourIt’s self-serve technology gives patrons the freedom to choose how much they pour and what they pour while avoiding long lines.
A lesser known fact about this new location is that the owner contributes all – yes, all – of the profits to fund free camps for less privileged youth at Makanalani on Kaua’i. Makanalani is a camp set on 130 beautiful tropical acres on Kaua’i’s north shore.
The franchise is located right off of Kuhio Highway.
Chicken in a Barrel is a fast-casual BBQ franchise based in Hawaii offering barrel-smoked chicken, pork, beef and ribs with homemade sides. With more than 35 years of experience in the cooking style, founder Mike Pierce brings a new spin to BBQ. Family-owned and operated, with a growing franchise base, Chicken in a Barrel spreads joy through its delicious menu and spreading good values throughout the community. Learn more at http://chickeninabarrel.com/.
Makanalani is an operating farm on Kauai’s beautiful north shore. It has been dedicated to providing free camps to less privileged youth on Hawai’i since 2012. Makanalani funds these camps by starting and operating several businesses on Kauai, as well as through its farming operations and a robust intern program.

Asia’s relative peace and prosperity is increasingly marked by maritime tensions, especially in the East and South China Seas. Despite the obvious incentives for cooperation, there is a growing concern that few costs appear to be imposed on those whose actions disrupt order. Bearing this in mind, the Center for a New American Security (CNAS) Asia team initiated a new project to examine the question of imposing costs on bad behavior in maritime Asia. On July 23, the CNAS Asia Team, in cooperation with the Stimson Center, convened the inaugural meeting in our new Maritime Strategy Project, the continuation of our longstanding efforts to describe and seek ways to counter threats to peace and stability throughout Indo-Pacific waters (find a link to the full agenda at the bottom of this post). The first year of the project outlined China’s efforts in recent years to unilaterally revise the status quo in maritime Asia. This year’s series focuses on identifying the strategy and concrete policy countermeasures to, in concert with allies like Japan, impose costs on Chinese coercion and ultimately change Beijing’s calculus on the advisability of using non-peaceful means to advance maritime claims. Without destabilizing the region or rupturing relations with China, the United States seeks to build an open, inclusive, rules-based order where disputes are resolved peacefully—even when that means competing with a rising China.
In addition to convening workshops composed of leading voices on strategy, U.S. foreign policy, the Indo-Pacific region and the U.S.-Japan alliance specifically, we will release frequent blog posts, video interviews, and papers from outside experts delving into specific facets of these issues. Make sure to check back to keep up with what we are doing.
Over the past five years, China’s assertiveness in its near seas has evolved into a pattern of behavior we have termed “tailored coercion,” which combines a broad range of policy tools to pressure its maritime neighbors on sovereignty and territorial issues, while simultaneously remaining below the level of conflict that would precipitate an overwhelming U.S. military response. Its robust military buildup has been shaped to sow doubt in the minds of U.S. military strategists by developing capabilities that could hold U.S. forces and military infrastructure at risk close to China’s shores. The result is that Beijing believes it can manipulate risk: pursuing limited political objectives through low-level—but still destabilizing—coercive tactics.
Despite tougher statements and some concrete actions from Washington in 2014, Chinese decision-makers have acted as if there were greater rewards than penalties for assertive behavior, as episodes like the recent oil rig standoff with Vietnam amply demonstrate. This Maritime Strategy Project thus seeks to identify peacetime policy options—encompassing diplomatic, informational, military and economic tools—for imposing costs that will be truly felt in China. Beijing should no longer feel so comfortable setting the terms of the game, hovering in the middle of the escalation ladder while unsettling all of maritime Asia in the process.
The inaugural workshop’s aims were threefold.
The first was for CNAS Asia-Pacific Security Program Senior Director Patrick Cronin to set out the general assumptions and framework of the project. His presentation, which will be published as a separate paper, focused on the challenge of tailored coercion; the roster of potential responses that would help deter, deny and impose costs on bad behavior in maritime Asia; and the risks and challenges of pursuing cost-imposing strategies.
The second aim of the workshop was to understand in general, drawing on the wisdom of expert strategists, what types of cost-imposing strategies exist, what considerations attend their formulation, what costs and risks are involved for the imposing party or parties, and how success can be measured. Outlining another forthcoming CNAS paper on the topic, Dr. Tom Mahnken described the basic elements required for developing a cost-imposing strategy. To begin with, any such strategy must be based on intimate knowledge of the challenging actor’s thinking, objectives, resources and resolve, with the critical proviso that no country is a monolithic entity but is composed of bureaucratic and other interests. Timing is key in the implementation of cost-imposing stratagems, as is the ability to modulate, reverse or re-apply them as events and competitor and partner reactions dictate. No attempt to impose costs should be undertaken without a clear understanding of the desired end states of both sides with respect to the issue at hand.
Our broad-strokes discussion of what China really cares about indicated that there is no shortage of places where the party-state is susceptible to U.S. and allied leverage. But there is a slight tension between, on the one hand, the need to compete to uphold a peaceful Asian order that provides open access to the commons, and on the other a real and abiding U.S. interest in practical and effective collaboration with China. Imposing costs while maintaining space for expanded cooperation will require a degree of policy coherence that is tough enough to maintain in one capital, much less with multiple allies and partners in concert. In some ways, this mirrors the tension between China’s need for a positive international environment and its apparent desire to flex its muscles abroad.
The third purpose of the initial workshop was to discuss China’s strategy and the current responses of other countries, particularly Japan and the United States, to that strategy. Presentations by Dr. David Finkelstein and Professors Satoru Mori and Toshi Yoshihara delved into some of the current assessments about what is driving China’s maritime assertiveness, how Japan is responding to that assertiveness, and additional ways to try to grapple with unilateral changes to the status quo in the East and South China Seas. A forthcoming blog post will lay out the fruits of this third objective and some implications for the U.S.-Japan alliance.
Future meetings, research, video interviews and other activities will embroider on all these ideas and examine their application to the specific problems in the East and South China Seas as well as at the regional level. We will hear from both U.S. and Asian voices. Stay tuned—this is only the beginning.

Thanks to these properties, all produced types of stones — transparent, translucent and opaque ones completely replicate Brightness, Color and Density of gemstones — in more than 350 colors and shades available: Emerald, Sapphire, Ruby, Garnet, Topaz, Aquamarine, Amethyst, Morganite, Kunzite, Peridot, Tsavorite, Rubellite, Red and Black Spinel, Turquoise and many others.
Colored glass usually has low hardness and insufficient luster. If compared with CZ, Hydrothermal quartz, Synthetic corundum, Spinel etc. The material is more uniform in color and is very close to the natural gems in hardness, refractive index, and luster. Moreover, unlike glass and many synthetic stones, Nanogem does not change color or destroyed during casting with stones.
Recently, a lot of color materials with the prefix "nano" appeared in the market. Some of them claim that their material is also a glass-ceramic, but in fact, almost all of these materials are just conventional colored glass, sometimes zirconium or yttrium, but still Glass. No nanocrystals in these materials can be traced. Accordingly, there are no comparable properties with our Nanogem.
The following colors are the popular color of Nano Gemstones.
Nano London Blue,Nano Swiss Blue,Nano Golden Yellow, Nano Dark Golden Yellow, Nano Milky Pink.
At Fu Rong Gems, you can Buy White and Colored Nano Crystal Gemstones With high Quality at Wholesale Direct Factory prices from the Real China Professional Manufacturer and Suppliers.

Mutuality for Football Clubs? Lessons from the Financial Sector.
The mutualisation of two English third division football clubs in 2001 and the creation of a number of supporters' trusts has offered hope to supporters of many larger clubs who see mutual status as protection from the vagaries of shareholder ownership and private control. This paper assesses whether mutuality would be of economic benefit for football clubs, drawing heavily on the experiences of mutuals in the financial sector. The economic case rests on the distinctive feature of customer loyalty to a club, which will usually be much stronger than loyalty to a financial institution. However, club members must expect to shoulder some financial risk. | 2019-04-19T02:20:20Z | https://www.era.lib.ed.ac.uk/handle/1842/1827 |
UPDATE: As of 12/31/16, the Ronda Rousey net worth number is now $6.01 million thanks to her $3 million purse from UFC 207, plus $1.6 million from a cut of PPV buys. The $3 million was guaranteed, win or lose.
The Ronda Rousey net worth total of $4.6 million comes from fights, acting and endorsements. UFC 193 added $1.5 million to Ronda Rousey’s net worth, even though Rousey lost her match against Holly Holm.
Ronda Rousey is tough, talented and beautiful. The 28 year old started her mixed martial arts career in 2010. Since that time, an estimated $1.3 million in prize money has added to the Ronda Rousey net worth sum. Rousey has earned another $7 million in pay-per-view money, $130,000 from her acting career and $3.6 million in endorsements. Taxes and expenses of $8.6 million let some air out of the Ronda Rousey net worth figure.
Ronda Rousey’s net worth is $4.6 million. That’s 86 times smaller than Floyd Mayweather’s net worth of $400 million. It’s 80 times smaller than Beyonce’s net worth of $372 million. LeBron James wealth of $210 million is 45 times larger than Ronda Rousey’s net worth. Ronda Rousey’s net worth is 30% larger than Barack Obama’s net worth of $3.2 million and 8 times larger than Bernie Sanders’ net worth of $528,000. It’s also 68 times larger than the typical American family’s net worth of $68,000.
The Ronda Rousey net worth story started in 2011 when the MMA star started fighting professionally. Since then, 12 MMA fights and six UFC title fights have chipped in $6.8 million to her net worth. Endorsements of $3.6 million, plus acting income of $130,000 and a best selling book give the fighter a career earnings total of $12.6 million dollars.
Taxes take an estimated $6.6 million dollar chunk out of the Ronda Rousey net worth stack. Rousey has been in a 39.6% tax bracket since 2013. She also lives in California, where her taxes have maxed out at 13.3%. We also estimate Rousey’s annual expenses for agents, cost of living and other costs at about 15% of her income.
Investment income probably adds about 6% per year to the Ronda Rousey net worth total. We figure on total lifetime investment income of $226,000 for Rousey, minus $119,000 in taxes.
The table below shows Rousey’s fight earnings from prize money alone. The figures here show all bonuses and prize purse money. What they don’t include is the money Rousey earns from her share of the Pay Per View take for each UFC fight. That PPV money started with her appearance in UFC 157 and is generally regarded to be about 3% of each fight’s total PPV take. While this table shows only prize money, the table in the next section shows PPV earnings.
Base pay and prize money for each UFC event is known. PPV earnings are estimated. Industry estimates place Ronda Rousey’s cut of the full PPV take at about 3%. Since the number of PPV buys are made public and the price for each match is advertised online, we can estimate Rousey’s PPV earnings. For example, Rousey’s August 2015 match with Bethe Correia had a reported 900,000 PPV buys. Each one cost $49.99. That puts the total revenue at $45 million for that event. If Rousey’s cut is 3%, that adds $1.35 million into the Ronda Rousey net worth total.
Even Rousey’s loss at UFC 193 added an estimated $1.5 million to her net worth. The fighter earns 3% of PPV revenue whether she wins or loses. With an estimated 1 million buys for that event, that gives Rousey 3% of $50 million, or $1.5 million.
Adding up all prize money and bonuses plus estimates for PPV earnings gives the total contribution of all fights to the Ronda Rousey net worth sum. The table below basically shows earnings from both section above. To date Rousey has earned $6.8 million from fighting in UFC and other MMA events.
Acting also kicks in to the Ronda Rousey net worth figures. The champion has appeared in several screen projects, most notably Furious 7 and Expendables 3. The table below shows estimated earnings for each job, based on known figures and payouts for other actors. All together, Rousey has earned over $1.4 million from acting so far.
Endorsements pitch in $3.6 million to the Ronda Rousey net worth numbers. That’s more than twice what the star has made from acting and over half what she’s earned in the ring. The key takeaway here is that Rousey has made herself into a cultural icon. With over three million Twitter followers, she’s extremely popular, and that means big sponsor pay. To date Rousey has inked deals with Pantene, Budweiser, Reebok, MetroPCS and Carl’s Jr. to name just a few.
Floyd Mayweather and Ronda Rousey have had a bit of a feud over their net worth. Rousey has been quoted as saying she earns more per second than Mayweather. Mayweather’s net worth is estimated at $400 million – about 110 times the size of Ronda Rousey’s net worth.
However, Mayweather spent 72 minutes in the ring to earn $300 million for one fight. Subtracting $15 million in endorsement income for those fights puts Mayweather earning about $66,000 per second. Looking only at Rousey’s Alexis Davis and Cat Zingano fights puts Rousey earning $67,000 per second. That’s because those fights lasted 16 seconds and 14 seconds respectively and paid Rousey a total of $1.9 million. It’s a stretch to say Rousey earns more than Mayweather and mostly a statistical trick, but it has caught the imagination of the MMA world.
Rousey’s autobiographical book, My Fight / Your Fight hit the New York Times Bestseller List in June of 2015. With an estimated 50,000 copies sold, the book has added about $80,000 so far to the Ronda Rousey net worth total. Some media outlets called the Times‘ late inclusion of Rousey’s book to the list a snub, saying the publication didn’t take her seriously because of her martial arts star status.

Ronda Rousey has been famously quoted as saying she’s not a “do nothing b****.” That’s the kind of woman who doesn’t do anything, but tears down other women who do. Rousey said that just because her body was developed for a purpose other than “****ing millionaires” doesn’t mean it’s masculine. Beyonce loved the quote so much she played it at a concert. Has the quote boosted Ronda Rousey’s net worth? It certainly has struck a nerve with a lot of fans, and that can’t help but help her earning power in a world where endorsements account for such a large chunk of a star’s earnings. See the quote below.
The Ronda Rousey net worth sum is more than just earnings. Taxes and expenses take their chunk. Investments likely add some money back.
By our estimates, Rousey has earned $6.9 million in her lifetime. She’s paid $3.6 million in taxes and $2.1 million in expenses like agent fees, trainers, staff and living expense. She’s earned back about $122,000 in investment income.
The table below shows the full Ronda Rousey net worth calculations.
On 2/16/16, Ronda Rousey told Ellen she contemplated suicide after her UFC loss to Holly Holm. More than the knock to her net worth, the knock to Rousey’s pride was nearly unbearable. | 2019-04-23T20:42:50Z | https://moneynation.com/ronda-rousey-net-worth/ |

It’s a run of rotten luck for Kings XI Punjab player David Miller and his fans. The South African cricketer’s shots during the eighth season of the Indian Premier League have struck two spectators in the past week, a 10-year-old boy at Mohali being the latest target.
The boy was injured on Saturday when a ball hit him on his chest during a warm-up practice session ahead of the final IPL league match between Kings XI Punjab and Chennai Super Kings at the PCA stadium.
Miller was practising pull shots close to the Kings XI Punjab dressing room when he smashed a ball past low nets placed to prevent spectators from throwing stuff in. The ball hit 10-year-old Sidharth Upadhya.
Sidharth, who had come from Bhopal with his father Mayank Upadhya to watch the afternoon match, fainted and was carried to the medical room at the cricket ground by a cop.
PCA chief executive officer Brig GS Sandhu (retired) confirmed the incident. Sidharth later complained of chest pain and was rushed to a hospital. He was doing fine, a source at the hospital he was being treated at said.
A police constable earlier lost eyesight in his right eye after being struck by a ball hit for a six by Miller during an IPL match against Kolkata Knight Riders at the Eden Gardens. Miller said he was in a state of shock after coming to know of the incident.
Aloke Aich, who was watching the match from the gallery at Block G last Sunday, is now being treated at the Calcutta Medical Research Institute Hospital in south Kolkata.
"I am still in a state of shock and deeply saddened to hear about the loss of Mr. Aich's eye. A freak accident! My prayers are with u," Miller tweeted.
"I wish this was not true! The incident and its ramifications have been terrible. I am sorry for mr Aich's irreversible loss and wish him the best recovery possible.My thoughts and prayers will be with Mr. Aich constantly," a statement by Miller read.
"The doctor has informed that he (Aich) won't get the vision back in his right eye. He is our sole breadwinner," said the victim's son Rana Aich.
"I hope the police authorities let him keep his job," said a tense Rana, an unemployed graduate.
Police have assured they would stand by their colleague.
"Obviously we will be by the side of Aich, who has unfortunately lost an eye. We are with them at their moment of need," said Special Additional Joint Commissioner of Police Rajeev Mishra.
The 53-year-old Aich was injured in the final over of the match and had to be hospitalised after initial treatment by the medical unit at the Eden Gardens. | 2019-04-22T06:11:33Z | https://www.hindustantimes.com/india/david-miller-s-friendly-fire-cop-loses-eyesight-10-year-old-faints/story-8tbpsyzfBWvVTTdGVEUnWJ.html |

I love to dress Adalyn up. Pretty much, everyday is a fashion show at my house. When I found out that I was expecting a girl, I started shopping for clothes like crazy and could not believe how many cute things were out there. I was recently sent a couple of the most adorable dresses that I had ever seen from the Lucy Lemon Etsy shop.
These dresses are handmade with baby's needs in mind including style, comfort and practicality. I tried this dress on Adalyn right away and it fit her great (6-12 months size). The dress was very comfortable seeming and she wore it all day without issues.
I love the polka dot colors including the grey and navy that I was sent. It has an inner lining and an underskirt layer. Not only is it completely adorable, it also is not itchy or anything like that which many dresses are.
I love that these dresses are all handmade! These would be great to buy for any little girl in your life or for a new mom at a baby shower.
A huge thanks to the Lucy Lemon shop for providing us with these adorable dresses!
This is the gorgeous navy dress that we received which is a bit bigger and will fit Adalyn later this summer- I'm thinking that it would make a great 4th of July dress paired with some red. Dresses retail for $39.60 each and are great quality.
The giveaway will be for any dress from the Lucy Lemon shop to one lucky reader!
I love little dresses like this! My sister-in-law is due with her first little girl in July, so I would love to win her a little dress.
Those dresses are so cute! I love them!
The dresses are ADORABLE!!! SO Cute!!! Thank you for the chance! | 2019-04-18T14:20:10Z | https://www.nutritionistreviews.com/2015/04/lucy-lemon-dress-review-and-giveaway.html |

1. They don't seem to have limits on where they go - not like ghosts. You don't need a haunted house to see one. About 75% of the time people see them outdoors, often in parks and cemeteries (in other words, they hang out at night where we don't usually go).
2. It is key that these intelligent forms go to places we don't usually go at night, so they might be in the home during sleep, they might be in a store after it closes, they might be in a cemetery, a park, a golf course... wherever we aren't awake or don't usually go after dark.
3. People often report a sense of dread and doom around them. The reason for this might be a side effect of these beings. In a way, consider them someone with bad vibes.
Our bodies can react to things we don't sense, like infrasound (sound waves in a low frequency we do not have in our hearing range). Infrasound can cause us many uneasy feelings as the waves do affect our bodies, much like a bass speaker can make our chest feel like it's thumping.
The instinctive "doom" and "dread" feelings might be a side effect of something they put off that we sense, but not with the usual senses, with our bodies as receivers. In other words, we feel them on some level because of a wave form, frequency, or energy that they are putting off.
This is like when we are in a haunted location and feel something is about to happen. Human bodies are great barometers and all we can do is interpret "good" or "bad" sensations and with that comes a flood of feelings, perhaps "dread" and "doom."
4. Their behavior involves darting around, disappearing and reappearing sometimes, curious peeking, and startling and disappearing when you look them straight on.
All in all, their behavior shows a degree of confidence they can wander around and explore without being seen, but when they are seen, they panic. This could mean they thought no one would be out and about, but their startle reaction happens even in places where people are up and about like on a ghost hunt or someone sitting on the sofa at home at night. So, their reaction could mean they thought we weren't capable of seeing them.
For example, let's say that you hid behind a shed at night and the property had a floodlight on a pole like they do in a lot of rural areas. You don't want someone to know you're coming, so you hide. But then, someone finds you because they saw your shadow. You'd feel like an idiot that you didn't consider the fact you would have a shadow that would give you away!
Imagine that these beings are other dimensional - a further dimension from us 3D figures. When I cast a shadow, I'm 3D and cast a 2D shadow. What if you were a further dimensional being who casts a 3D shadow? Now, imagine that you go out night wandering around but because of dim lighting, you cast a 3D shadow that you don't in the daytime when no one can detect you at all? You think you can run around without being seen, but at night, your 3D shadow gives you away.
We are not seeing detail on these beings because we are seeing essentially their 3-dimensional spatially oriented shadow projection of them, not the actual being. Like my shadow (above) is distorted depending on the source of light, whatever frequency is creating their shadow, might be distorting their size and proportions as well, explaining why some shadow people are reported tall and others short. Let's say it's something high frequency that can go across dimensions, might it be like an x-ray caused by radiation bombardment or possible dark energy?
Are shadow people really little dark beings with no details darting around, or are those the three dimensional shadow casting of a being we aren't seeing because of its lack of visual physical presence?
Remember, the person searching for me, did not see me, but saw my shadow being cast from behind the building.
Now, that's a thought to ponder! | 2019-04-23T10:01:25Z | http://www.ghosthuntingtheories.com/2016/08/what-are-shadow-people-chilling.html |

In his Featured Writer blog, poet and Writing School tutor Wayne Burrows asks the questions: what is authenticity for a writer? Is it something others use to define us, or is it a quality in the things we write? Can it be faked? | 2019-04-24T20:51:02Z | http://www.writingeastmidlands.co.uk/writers/featured/ |

Security considerations aside, perimeter security is expensive and annoying. Maintaining a perimeter is an operational burden. VPNs are notoriously frustrating for users. Access requests that would help someone do their job faster are frequently denied because the perimeter is all-or-nothing and fine-grained access cannot be granted.
A better security model exists. Instead of relying on IP and MAC addresses to determine access we can cryptographically authenticate the identity of people and software making requests. It’s a simple concept, really: what matters is who or what is making a request, not where a request comes from. In short, access should be based on identity.
This general approach to security was branded “zero trust” by Forrester in 2010. Google has called the idea “BeyondCorp” in the context of corporate IT (they moved to this model to improve their own security after Operation Aurora). Names aside, the idea is obviously good. Zero trust concepts improve security and reduce security overhead.
Zero trust is an idea, not a technology. But there are a number of technologies that are relevant to zero trust architectures: authenticated encryption (X.509, TLS), single sign-on (OAuth OIDC, SAML), multi-factor authentication (OATH OTP, FIDO U2F), encryption mechanisms (JWE, NaCl), and verifiable claims (JWT, SAML assertions), to name a few.
Unfortunately these technologies are complex. They’re hard to work with, hard to debug, and hard to string together to build and operate a complete system. This is largely a tooling problem. No good tools exist for working with zero trust primitives. Today we’re announcing the open source release of the step command line utility to help fill that gap.
step is a zero trust swiss army knife. It is an easy-to-use and hard-to-misuse utility that implements a broad set of useful zero trust primitives. The goal is to make it easier for developers, operators, and security professionals to experiment with, debug, and automate zero trust systems. Over time we plan to add infrastructure components and user-facing functionality that make building and using zero trust systems even easier.
Our goal is to build a forgiving tool with safe and sane defaults that makes all of this as easy as possible.
Note that this is an alpha release of step. None of these APIs are stable yet.
Binary tarballs are also available for Linux and macOS. For instructions on building from source see GitHub.
--jwks keys.json --iss "issuer@example.com" --aud "audience@example.com"
What’s smallstep and why are we releasing this tool?
Smallstep makes software that helps teams build and operate distributed systems. We’re venture-backed by Accel, Upside Partnership, Boldstart, and a whole bunch of other awesome investors. We make money by licensing on-prem software that makes building and operating robust large scale systems easier. Our interest in zero trust security is motivated by this broader mission.
We put together the step command line utility to debug, operate, and automate the distributed systems infrastructure we provide to our customers. The tool leverages open source and open standards extensively. It’s written in Go and uses golang’s excellent crypto, x/crypto and x509 libraries. It also uses Square’s go-jose library, additional x509 utilities from the ZMap team, and numerous other libraries and contributions. This wasn’t a solo effort. So open sourcing seemed like the right thing to do. Selfishly, we also want you to know who we are and want to build a community around our technologies. We believe that open source is a great way to build a grassroots following.
On that note, a quick and shameless plug — our complete stack includes everything you need to fully realize zero trust. We have an online certificate authority for TLS and SSH, an OAuth identity provider, a policy language and policy engine, an identity-aware and policy-enforcing proxy. Some of these components will eventually make their way into the open source step offering. Some enterprise features will be held back and monetized. If you’re interested in this sort of stuff please contact us for early access.
What we’re releasing today is just the beginning. There’s a lot that still needs to be cleaned up. Our highest priority is documentation, which is incomplete and isn’t as pretty as we’d like it to be. Many commands are missing fairly obvious options which we’ll be adding over the coming weeks. Please open an issue if there’s anything you’d like to see.
We also have a long roadmap of features to add. We want to support the ACME, FIDO U2F, and SAML protocols. We want to integrate with HSMs, TPMs, and operating system facilities for managing private keys and passwords. We’d like to add support for working with OCSP, CRL, and certificate transparency lists. We want to make it easier to automate zero trust in cloud environments by working with instance identity claims as well as cryptographic key management and encryption services from popular vendors.
You can already do most of these things with step today. In fact, there are a lot of ways to implement each of these operations, which is precisely the problem. Most users and software developers should be shielded from these details both for their own benefit and for the benefit of implementors. By exposing functionality through abstract interfaces the implementation is easier to change. Your security story can be incrementally improved. You can easily switch from AES-GCM to ChaCha20-Poly1305, or from OAuth tokens to client certificates. All without code changes and without impacting anyone’s workflow.
There’s a lot that needs to happen to realize this vision. We’d love your help and support to get there. Star us (or fork us) on GitHub. Follow us on twitter. If you’re interested in our other products please contact us for early access. And if you like working on these sorts of things drop us a line, we’re always hiring.
We’re very excited to finally be sharing more publicly. We want your feedback, so please tell us what you think and how we can make step better. We look forward to sharing more in the future. | 2019-04-20T04:33:16Z | https://smallstep.com/blog/zero-trust-swiss-army-knife.html |
This walk takes you along a series of beautiful waterfalls from the village of Pontneddfechan in the Brecon Beacons. It's a splendid walk through lovely woodland gorges with rushing water and interesting rock formations to enjoy. The route generally takes place on well maintained, flat paths though there are couple of slightly awkward spots to negotiate.
The walk starts in the parking area in Pontneddfechan and follows footpaths north along the Afon Nedd Fechan before branching off to the left along the Afon Pyrddin to take you to Sgwd Gwladus falls. You then double back to return to the Afon Nedd Fechan and head north east to take you to Scwd Ddwli falls. Shortly after you come to Pont Melin Fach where there is a nice picnic area by the river. There's also another car park here so you could use this as an alternative start point to the walk.
After enjoying a rest at the picnic area the route returns to Pontneddfechan on the same paths. If you wanted to extend the walk you could continue north along the river toward Coed-y-Garreg.
Just to the north east you will find the village of Ystradfellte where you can one of the most popular walks in the national park. Known as the Four Waterfalls Walk it includes a number of stunning waterfalls on the Afon Mellte. You can reach the area by following our longer Neath Waterfalls Walk which also starts at Pontneddfechan. | 2019-04-20T02:55:40Z | http://www.gps-routes.co.uk/routes/home.nsf/RoutesLinksWalks/pontneddfechan%C2%A0waterfalls-walk-walking-route |

▶ Rotating the middle planetary gear's sun gear while its carrier is locked in place slows down and reverse rotates the annulus gear (front carrier), resulting in power transfer to the front carrier.
▶ The rear planetary gear's rear and front annulus gears rotate at a reduced rate, resulting in reverse, zero load rotation of the front planetary gear's front sun gear.
▶ When the rear sun gear is rotated, power is reduced at the rear planetary gear and then delivered to the rear and front annulus gears. The power is then reduced again at the front planetary gear, whose sun gear is locked in place, and then delivered to the front carrier.
▶ Here, the middle annulus gear, which comprises of a single unit with the front carrier, rotates and results in reverse, zero load rotation of the middle sun gear.
▶ Rotating the rear sun gear delivers power to the rear & front annulus gears, and reaction from the front carrier and the middle annulus gear, to which the sun gear is attached, transfers to the middle and rear carriers, resulting in power equilibrium and power transfer to the front carrier.

▶ Activation of the overdrive clutch (OD/C) synchronizes the rear planetary gear's carrier and sun gears. The 1:1 rotation ratio passes through the rear and front annulus gears and reaches the front planetary gear's front carrier, to which the sun gear is attached.
▶ Here, the middle planetary gear's middle sun gear rotates at a faster rate in the normal direction and at zero load due to the actions of the reduced annulus gear and the carrier having a 1:1 rotation ratio.

[T]he preferred narrative in the U.S. and most Western mainstream media is that the current situation is due to the U.S “withdrawal” which ended in December 2011 (more than 200 U.S. troops and military advisors remained in Iraq). This portrait of events in which the US withdrawal is to blame for the insurgency does not draw any connection between the U.S. invasion of 2003 and the occupation that ensued. It also ignores the death squads trained by U.S advisors in Iraq in the wake of the invasion and which are at the heart of the current turmoil.
“Ever since the overthrow of Saddam’s regime in 2003, the Saudi regime has been emphatically hostile towards Iraq. This has been largely due to its deeply entrenched fear that the success of democracy in Iraq would undoubtedly inspire its own people. Another reason is the deeply rooted hatred – by Saudi Arabia’s extremist Wahhabi Salafi religious establishment – towards the Shia. The Saudi regime also accuses Maliki, of giving Iran a freehand to dramatically intensify its influence in Iraq. The Saudi regime has made no secret that its overriding priority is to severely undermine what it perceives as highly perilous and yet growing Iranian influence.
The following GR articles provide a detailed assessment of recent developments in Iraq.
We also refer our readers to Global Research’s Iraq Report, which contains an extensive archive of articles of more than a thousand articles. | 2019-04-24T00:26:32Z | http://www.cjournal.info/2014/06/27/us-sponsored-terrorism-in-iraq-and-constructive-chaos-in-the-middle-east/ |

Time and again I have seen the same basic discussion take place between players and sometimes involving staff, about which items can and can't be sold to other players, what constitutes a "crop" and today even "how much is a stack, it could be one, it could be a double chest". It's very difficult to explain the nuances of these things when they aren't actually listed in the rules or the full rules for us to direct people to.
• Altering the language in rule 9.3 to clearly state the two-stack limit on gifts that staff have been reciting.
• Adding the 'rule' that staff recite about not selling crops to players into the actual /rules.
1) Create a master list of items we are NOT allowed to sell to other players and link it to the /fullrules or giving it a separate, easy-to-reference command. Even just amending the rules to say "crops" is not helpful, since a 'crop of fish' is not an intuitive concept, but live fish are treated as a crop due to their mechanics.
I know there are many other more pressing issues to be addressed at this time and several exciting features the team is working to re-implement, but it has been my experience that a little clarity and consistency in the rules goes a long way to reducing community arguments while streamlining the enforcement workload for staff. Thank you for your time and consideration. | 2019-04-19T09:23:40Z | https://www.cultivatemc.com/forums/m/39095488/viewthread/32443729-clarity-regarding-rules-notselling-crops |
A troubled mother with a history of violent partners has been allowed to take on care for her third child.
A (Final Hearing) concerned a girl referred to as ‘T’, who was born in April last year. The local authority, Cambridgeshire County Council, applied to the courts for care and placement orders which would allow the infant to be taken into care and adopted by a new family.
Concerns for T’s welfare focused on her mother, referred to as ‘P’. In the Family Court sitting at Peterborough, His Honour Judge Greene explained that the woman had led a “chaotic and abusive lifestyle”.
The mother had a lengthy history of forming relationships with violent drunks and drug addicts. At one stage she had lived in Malta with an abusive partner, then left an earlier daughter there with the man and returned to the UK with her son, and promptly formed a relationship with another violent partner, during which her son claimed he had been hit by the man. She broke with and then reunited with the same man, prompting the beginning of the earlier care proceedings. The court declared that her two children at that point were at risk of both physical and emotional harm due to the “mother permitting inappropriate adults with drug or alcohol problems to live or stay at the family home”. Both youngsters were adopted.
Social workers believed she had not adequately addressed her serious lifestyle problems since then. What changes she had made were “too recent, too little and are untested”. They also claimed that P had not been “open and honest” with them, and as a result, they could not guarantee the safety of a child in her care.
Their position was supported by the baby’s legal guardian.
Both P and the child’s father, R, opposed the plans. P insisted that she had changed and should look after her child, claiming the concerns listed by social workers were not sufficient to justify adoption, a position supported by R. He also expressed an interest in looking after T himself.
In his ruling, Judge Greene noted the requirements of adoption law, T’s lifelong welfare was his primary focus, and he had to consider the legal requirements set out in the Adoption and Children Act.
He considered the lifestyle changes made by T’s mother. She had undertaken social courses, seen improvements to her mental health and made an apparently genuine reconciliation with her mother and stepfather who had been critical of her previous relationships.
The Judge concluded that T should be given back to her mother, but ordered that she been given a level of parenting support equivalent to that received by adoptive parents. R, meanwhile, was allowed only limited “closely supervised contact” until he had demonstrated significant changes to his lifestyle. | 2019-04-20T20:47:23Z | https://www.stowefamilylaw.co.uk/blog/2016/01/08/family-court-sends-girl-home-with-troubled-mother/ |

With Davies Avenue covered (see: #TransformManukau – The Davies Avenue Axis. Part 9 of the Manukau City Centre – The Transform Series) as a premier boulevard I swing to the southern end of Manukau City Centre and look at the primary southern east-west axis that is Manukau Station Road.
You can see Manukau Station Road there along the southern east-west axis as it connects between Lambie Drive and the Great South Road. Manukau Station Road was once Wiri Station Road and State Highway 20 until the Southern Western Motorway was built causing a rejig in the area. The rejig means we are left a four-lane 60km/h road with a wide green median strip that is a dehumanising experience designed for cars despite the people anchors in the area.
So what to do about Manukau Station Road?
Manukau Station Road is to form main public transit route in and out with 500 bus movements a day going to and from the Manukau Interchange as well as most likely serving as the Light Rail corridor between Botany and the Airport in the future.
The bus and later Light Rail movements need to be taken into account before we do any humanising of Manukau Station Road unless we want more disconnection that Manukau already suffers from.
First up would be to drop the speed limit from 60km/h to 40km/h along Manukau Station Road so that the road is not encouraging as a rat run for cars trying to get to the Southern Motorway. Next on the list is 24/7 bus lanes with traffic signal priority for the buses to allow the buses servicing the bus station easy and efficient access along the transit corridor unless you want to sit in general traffic for 20 minutes in the evening rush hour. After that it would be time to humanise the intersections through installing Barnes Dance pedestrian signal phases (all four corners cross at once) while removing all slip lanes that are hazard to people. Installing separated cycle ways would also be a good idea as well as getting a designation put down for the eventual Botany Line.
Granted the above is all physical infrastructure projects but they are needed to lay the foundation to new developments on Manukau Station Road while restoring that human element on the former State Highway.
Those new developments along Manukau Station Road would include Te Papa North, retail and commercial service, commercial office and housing. Again like Davies Avenue I prefer the developments to be mixed use (retail on the bottom, office in the middle and residential on the top) to get maximum use from the land while discouraging vertical sprawl that can happen in single use towers.
Finally Manukau Station Road also contains most of the vacant land in Manukau City Centre meaning getting larger scale developments off the ground (once the road is humanised) would be easier to achieve (even than Davies Avenue given Auckland Transport own the land there needed for development). That said Davies Avenue would still go first given it is a prime candidate to be a premier Boulevard (Ronwood Avenue is another candidate as a long-term project) but Manukau Station Road would be next off the rank (if not done at the same time if we are ambitious).
In the next Transform Manukau series post I swing east and north to the Great South Road and Ronwood Avenue. After that I swing south to the residential areas of Manukau/Wiri and Rata Vines.

The first fuzzer was written in the early 1980s by developer Steve Capps to test for weakness in programs for the Macintosh computer. He called his program "The Monkey," referring to the classic adage of a monkey pressing random keys on a typewriter for an infinite amount of time. The theory is that given enough time, the monkey will eventually write the complete works of Shakespeare. Although this approach to software testing is typically called "fuzzing," it is also called "monkey testing" because of Capps' program.
Fuzzing techniques can be used to test software, and many fuzzers exist for specific purposes.

The August full moon rises. It is the time when my plans and goals for this moon cycle begin to fall in to place. As long as I have tended them for the past few weeks.
Several threads are woven and I can begin to see images appearing.
These scenes may or may not end up as reality, but they are there because seeds were sown. Seeds that have been sown on land tended for the past few weeks (and previous moon cycles).
I find it so difficult to wait. Cycles take time. Seeds grow at their own speed. Seasons come and go. So often, because of the wait, I forget to sow the seed, to tend the crop. My forgetfulness is often intentional. If I can’t have it now, I won’t bother.
My moon intentions and realisation cycle has helped. It’s a nice metaphor to hold, to remind me that I have no right to a field and harvest if I have not sown the seed or tended the land.
Doing the work does not guarantee a harvest. There are many variables. But I try. I learn. I understand. Every new moon cycle my wisdom is greater. Every lunar month I know a little more than the previous period of waxing and waning.
The August full moon rises, let me see if my crop is bearing fruit.
I read that the current full moon is a ‘wolf’ moon. All around the world, but particularly by Native Americans, names are given to the full moon. Each one signifies something special. The ‘wolf’ protects and gathers food for the pack. For me, this full moon signifies a pulling together of things. Of finally being ready.
The image above is of my planning and journaling stickers that are now for sale on Etsy. Click the image and you’ll find the shop. It has taken years of planning, but it was only the realisation that I could do them myself that finally got me to this point. pLAnarchy currently has stickers, digital downloads and handmade journals with more on the way.
The full moon and the new moon are both in the current sticker set available. I am finding it very helpful to use these cycles in my planning and productivity. The time frame seems to work for me; longer than a week but less than a month, with two focal points.
The naming of the ‘wolf’ full moon, adds a little gravitas to a regular celestial event. Naming has had implications throughout history. It has given power over things, it has raised the importance of things and it has given focus to events. I like the idea of naming my full moons as I go through the year planning and preparing. I’m not sure whether to use the names that have already been given, although there are many variations across the world, or create my own, with my own personal significance (I think I will give it a go).
You can still see the current full moon tonight. As I look up at it I will think about giving it a name.
Have you any ideas? What will you call this full moon?
I found out about the moon having a name here. | 2019-04-26T16:12:13Z | http://www.darrenrhill.com/tag/full-moon/page/2/ |

Heat the oil in a large frying pan and cook the onion, pepper and chillies over a medium-high heat until the onion is golden. Add the tomatoes, season and cook until the peppers are soft and the mixture is like a sauce, not too runny. Stir in the herbs. Break the eggs on top and cook over a medium heat until they are set but the yolks are still runny (15 to 20 minutes). The mixture will become thicker.
Stir together the yoghurt and the garlic.
Sprinkle the eggs with salt and pepper, add a drizzle of extra-virgin olive oil and the ground chilli or cayenne. Scatter with feta, if using, and add a dollop of the yoghurt sauce.

Thank you. I think you just described ,emotionally about 90%, what I can not seem to put into words. Also, I think it truly describes how a lot of the other members felt.
I know what you mean by “love them like family”. Cheesy as the line reads and sound the past 18 months I’ve used there ministry to stay close to God when I’ve felt as if the world would end today. I have promoted them, uzed there music in some hobby work just to let people hear them, and driven on weekends off to do physical labor to set up there shows when in the area. Yet I am scared of them. Socially inept when I am around them, to the point it comes off as creepy.
I have no problems with being around Vince or any of the other crew. Including Hardt. Oh well.
You put in four great years friend. I applaud your work and I am sure God is certainly glad that you gave him the glory. Be well and always live for God. God Bless.
There are tears in my eyes right now, because I feel exactly the same way.
Thank you for all the work you have done. It was great to serve with you in this awesome ministry. I really hope I’ll get to know you better in the years to come and that we’ll get to meet some day.
You’re an awesome person Lindsay!

Just when I get tired of filling hummingbird feeders, the season changes. I put away the hummingbird feeders, empty the last of the nectar on the ground and take a look at my pile of firewood. The cover screen in front of my rock fireplace is moved and the protective screen is placed in front of the fireplace. The nights grow cooler as well as the mornings. The acorns fall, the wildlife abandons my feeders and hunting season is drawing near. As the weather turns cold, the fireplace burns most every day and night. When I become tired of cleaning out ashes and hauling logs into the house, spring comes. The hummingbird feeders are resurrected from the utility room and the cycle begins anew. I don’t think I could live near the equator where the seasons only change from wet to dry. I love seeing the leaves change color and fall and then the new growth in all shades of green emerges in the spring. Lambs are born. Nature continues on its endless cycle, providing me with variety and change. I wouldn’t live anyplace else. | 2019-04-22T14:19:08Z | http://www.sonjaroseklein.com/changing-seasons/ |

Yep, another 10-things list. And you probably already guessed it, the list will be about complete nonsense. Yesterday I made this amazing Let it Go video, spent hours editing it and couldn’t even show it to you people. So, today I’m keeping it weird and simple. Just how I like it.
This Tuesday 10 things you should do or say in an elevator (just because you can).
Number two: When there’s only one other person in the elevator tap their shoulder and pretend it wasn’t you.
Number three: Go stand in the corner facing the wall, when someone comes in just say: “My mom gave me a time-out.” And maybe sigh.
Number eight: Tell people you’re riding the elevator to Heaven to ask God why he created mosquitos.
Number nine: Have a Dance Party!
Number Ten: Pretend like you’re from the past and don’t know what an elevator is. (Again a costume is optional.) Push all the buttons, maybe say: “What is this contraption?” Freak out when the doors close.
These 10 things are a guarantee to make your elevator trips more entertaining. Why you would want you’re elevator trips to be more entertaining you might ask? Because of reasons! | 2019-04-21T06:40:08Z | https://charlottes-corner.com/2015/04/07/10-things-tuesday-3/ |
Raising Grandkids: Inside Skipped-Generation Families by Gary Garrison University of Regina Press 2018/$19.95/212 pp.
Edmonton writer Gary Garrison never expected to be called into parenting—again—in his retirement 60s. But having committed to co-parenting his partner’s young grandchildren, he reached out to other grandparents raising grandkids—families that Statistics Canada terms “skip-generation” households. These family stories, many of which are told in Raising Grandkids, track dishearteningly repetitive spirals of trauma and crisis, where grandparents are called into action by ruptures in their children’s and grandkids’ lives.
—Jannie Edwards is a poet, teacher and editor in Edmonton. | 2019-04-26T00:16:04Z | https://albertaviews.ca/raising-grandkids/ |
I tried making chocolate sugar cookies for the first time several years ago, just to have something to change up the traditional sugar cookies I make for decorating. They tasted great right out of the oven -- like little brownies -- but they hardened quickly and didn't taste very chocolatey.
I've tested a few other recipes since then and had similar results. If they tasted great, they spread while baking. If they didn't spread, they didn't taste that great. And then I found this recipe. And I made many, many cookies, as evidenced by the small collection below.
I wanted to try a non-traditional color palette for these cookies -- something that would really pop against the deep chocolate color of the cookies (another major plus of this recipe). I decorated the cookies above using my FAVORITE ROYAL ICING recipe and four AmeriColor Soft Gel Paste colors -- Bright White, Royal Blue, Sky Blue, and (a very soft) Teal. I love the accent of the dark blue against the other shades -- it's almost like a Delft blue -- very rich and unexpected for holiday cookies. To get the fine detail, I used an Ateco #2 tip for the flooding and a #1.5 for the lines and dots.
There were so fun to make -- they are a deep chocolate flavor that holds it's shape while baking (see the snowflakes? You can't get much better than that) and makes for a striking backdrop for lighter shades of icing. | 2019-04-24T04:33:41Z | http://www.ibakeyoubake.com/blog/2015/1/1/dark-chocolate-sugar-cookies |
I want to thank you for taking the time this month to shine a light on Black History as we honor, celebrate and narrate the stories of African Americans.
When I think about the importance of Black History Month, I am reminded of something an African-American educator said years ago in a staff meeting when asked by a colleague why we needed to single out Black History as a special event. She replied that as a person who had lived through the civil rights movement, she believed that Black History Month provided a time for all educators and students to remember together the struggles of African Americans to obtain the basic civil rights afforded to other citizens of the United States, the challenges African Americans had faced together since the first slaves were brought to America, and the contributions of African Americans to this great nation.
I must admit that I feel the same way about Women’s History, given that my grandmothers were both adults with children before women received the right to vote in the third decade of the twentieth century. And, I know that others feel similarly about different days or weeks or months dedicated to honor, celebrate or educate.
We are a nation grounded in liberty and justice, not for some, but for all. We represent the greatest diversity of any nation in the world, and that has challenged us as wave after wave of immigrants have looked to America as a place with the right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. From veterans to presidents, we honor people for many reasons in this country with special times of remembrance. These annual events by themselves do not begin to tell the stories of our history and the people who helped write those stories. However, our events remind us to transmit the narrative of the United States from the best of who we are to when we have been at our worst to our learners.
Our historical narrative defines us and helps us remember important markers and milestones in our great American journey.
Along with similar events, Black History Month serves as such a marker—a time to pause and reflect. That’s why we take the time in our schools to educate our young people this month about the contributions of African Americans to stories of our nation and events that shaped who we are as a culture today.

On behalf of Schoenfeld & Schoenfeld, P.C. posted in Car Accidents on Friday, April 5, 2019.
Car accidents happen all of the time, but despite the fact that they are common events, not all Portland residents may know what to do if they are hurt in such incidents. A vehicle collision can cause a great deal of damage to a person's physical health and financial stability. This post will offer some suggestions for what auto accident victims can do to in order to protect their legal rights and options for financial recovery.
On behalf of Schoenfeld & Schoenfeld, P.C. posted in Car Accidents on Thursday, February 28, 2019.
Interstate 5 is a massive thoroughfare that crosses state borders and offers passage to thousands of people every year. It cuts through Oregon, coming down from Washington and passing into California at the state's southern edge. Because of its importance as a national route and its convenience for local drivers, it can be a busy and crowded interstate to drive on.
On behalf of Schoenfeld & Schoenfeld, P.C. posted in Car Accidents on Thursday, January 24, 2019.
Car accidents can be dangerous and damaging, and in many cases, victims are able to anticipate the collisions they will be involved in when they see other cars barreling toward them. However, in some accidents, victims may not have much warning that they are about to be injured. This post will touch on several of the injuries a victim of a rear-end collision may suffer, but readers are reminded that information contained herein is not to be read as medical or legal advice.
On behalf of Schoenfeld & Schoenfeld, P.C. posted in Car Accidents on Thursday, January 10, 2019.
Portland drivers are likely aware of just how dangerous it can be to drive while distracted or drunk. Local, state and national campaigns have highlighted the threats that these hazardous behaviors pose to individuals as well as others who they may encounter while out on the roads. A distracted or drunk driver is a threat to everyone who crosses their path because they are not fully focused on the important task of maintaining their vehicle.
On behalf of Schoenfeld & Schoenfeld, P.C. posted in Car Accidents on Friday, December 14, 2018.
The first priority of any car accident victim should be attending to the physical trauma and harm that they suffered in their crash. As readers of this Portland-based personal injury blog know, the types and severity of injuries that victims of vehicle collisions can experience will vary greatly. While some victims may walk away from their accidents with minor bumps and bruises, others may have to fight for their lives to survive.
On behalf of Schoenfeld & Schoenfeld, P.C. posted in Car Accidents on Friday, November 16, 2018.
The trauma of surviving a car accident can last for years. Individuals who have experienced serious crashes and who have suffered the physical and emotional harm that can result from such incidents understand that time may not heal all of their accident-related wounds. An Oregon resident who is injured in a crash can suffer from many different types of harm, some of which may not ever completely heal.

As readers of this blog would probably know, drivers both in the Portland area and throughout the state now have to follow Oregon's relatively new anti-distracted measure. This law bans almost all usage of hand-held cell phones, regardless of whether a person is actually texting, searching the web or even just having a conventional phone conversation.

Toyota recently announced the recall of 2.4 million of its Prius model, a hybrid car. This is a worldwide recall, but over 800,000 of the affected models are in the United States. Being that Portlanders are environmentally conscious, it would not be surprising at all that some of these vehicles are being driven in this city. | 2019-04-22T04:21:33Z | https://www.schoenfeldlawyers.com/mt-bin/mt-search.cgi?IncludeBlogs=78583&tag=Car%20Accidents |
The insect wall provides nesting opportunities for various species of solitary bees and other small insects such as spiders, ladybirds and earwigs. The insect wall, with roof, is made of durable solid FSC wood and approved by bee experts.
Advice: Panting is important so that butterflies, solitary bees and other insects are attracted to the insect wall. Nectar plants are indispensable for the bees in the hotel, we recommend providing around 100 m² of native nectar plants around the hotel.
Place the insect hotel preferably in a sunny area, in close proximity to plants and flowers. The front, where possible, aimed at the south. The hotel can be dug into the ground with the poles, ensure the pole with the protective black layer is just above the ground level.
The insect hotel is treated with a clear water-based substance. A regular paint job will naturally prolong the shelf life. The bamboo tubes do not have to be replaced unless they are damaged or pulled out. The hotel should be checked once a year in the winter months for overall condition and stability. | 2019-04-21T20:16:21Z | http://www.vivarapro.co.uk/IP-WA-01-Insectenwand |

Ladakh ("land of high passes") is a region in northern India. It is part of the state of Jammu and Kashmir. It is located between the Kunlun mountain range in the north and the main Himalayas to the south. Ladakh is well-known for its remote mountain scenery. It is inhabited by a mix of Indo-Aryan and Tibetan people. Their language is an archaic dialect of the Tibetan language. It is sometimes called "Little Tibet", because it has been strongly influenced by Tibetan culture. Ladakh is one of the least populated regions in the area.
Historically, the region of Ladakh included neighbouring Baltistan, the Indus and Zanskar Valleys, Lahaul and Spiti, Aksai Chin and the Nubra Valley. The modern region borders Tibet to the east, Lahaul and Spiti to the south, and Kashmir, Jammu and Baltistan to the west.
In the past, Ladakh was important for trade. It was where several important trade routes met. However, China closed the border with Tibet in the 1960s, and since then, international trade has suffered. Tourism is an exception, and it has been very important for Ladakh's economy since about 1974. Because the wider region is a part of the Kashmir conflict, the Indian military has a strong presence in Ladakh.
The largest town in Ladakh is Leh. It is one of the few remaining places in South Asia where Buddhism is very strong. A majority of Ladakhis are Tibetan Buddhists and the rest are mostly Shia Muslims. Leh is followed by Kargil as the second largest town in Ladakh. Some Ladakhi activists have in recent times called for Ladakh to be made into a union territory because of its religious and cultural differences with Kashmir, which is mostly Muslim.
Ladakh is the highest plateau in the state of Jammu and Kashmir. Much of it is over 3,000 m (9,800 ft) above sea level. It spans the Himalayan and Karakoram mountain ranges and the upper Indus River valley. The Indus is the most important part of Ladakh for its people. Most major historical and current towns (Shey, Leh, Basgo and Tingmosgang) are located close to the Indus River. The stretch of the Indus flowing through Ladakh is the only part of this river in India. The river is sacred in Hindu religion and culture.

About 46% are Buddhist by faith. Just over 47% are Muslim, and 6% are Hindu. Kargil District is the only Muslim-majority district within Ladakh. They traditionally lead a nomadic pastoral life. About 90% of them depend on agriculture based on the Indus River for their livelihood. Barley, wheat, buckwheat, peas, rapeseed and beans are the main agricultural products. Apples and apricots are grown in warmer regions of low altitude.
Another occupation of the people is sheep-rearing. The herdsmen are called Chang-pas. They rear long-haired goats and sheep from whose under-fleece the famous Kashmiri Pashmina shawls are made. Chang-pas live in tents and are nomadic, going from place to place in search of pastures. The people are keenly interested in trade. Wool, in raw form is their chief commercial product. The men travel long distances, seeking favourable prices for their wares, which consist of salt, dry fruits and cultured pearls and semi-precious stones. In return they get tea, tobacco, grain, sugar and other essential goods.
Playing polo on fast-racing ponies is the most popular entertainment in Ladakh. The horse is not changed with each chukker (chukka) as in western style polo, but each player carries on with the same sturdy pony. Primitive wooden balls are still used for the game, played on a rough, uneven pitch whose popularity persists in Ladakh.
Ladakh offers the hunters exotic hunts of the markhor, ibex, red bear, snow leopard, wild sheep, antelope, gazelle and marmot. Ladakh is also rich in minerals like gold, copper and semi-precious stones.
Vegetation is extremely sparse in Ladakh except along streambeds and wetlands, on high slopes, and in irrigated places. The first European to study the wildlife of this region was Ferdinand Stoliczka, an Austrian-Czech palaeontologist, who carried out a massive expedition there in the 1870s.
The fauna of Ladakh has much in common with that of Central Asia in general and that of the Tibetan Plateau in particular.Exceptions to this are the birds, many of which migrate from the warmer parts of India to spend the summer in Ladakh. For such an arid area, Ladakh has a great diversity of birds — a total of 225 species have been recorded. Many species of finches, robins, redstarts (like the black redstart), and the hoopoe are common in summer. The brown-headed gull is seen in summer on the river Indus and on some lakes of the Changthang. Resident water-birds include the brahminy duck also known as the ruddy sheldrake and the bar-headed goose. The black-necked crane, a rare species found scattered in the Tibetan plateau, is also found in parts of Ladakh. Other birds include the raven, Eurasian magpie, red-billed chough, Tibetan snowcock, and chukar. The lammergeier and the golden eagle are common raptors here specially in Changthang region.

Modern house architecture is clean and simple yet it can add elegance to your house. Form follows function in modern house architecture. Elements of modern design such as wood, concrete, glass, and steel are used in a forward-thinking fashion and they can be very appealing, even when displayed in the most simplistic style. Modern house architecture in Miami has clean lines and minimalist interiors able to communicate your unique taste.
Modern designers can create some of the most welcoming designs to date. Look around and you will see how modern trends in architecture have transformed our neighborhoods, and cities. Everything comes beautifully together into an exclusive artistic design in line with your taste and lifestyle. When decorating a modern home less is definitely more. However, modern architecture can also be stylish and versatile.
Modern architecture began in the 20th century and it became popular after World War II. Contemporary style architecture is what we have today, which continues to evolve over time. Modern architecture design emphasizes on function, with simplified form and clean lines. Unnecessary details are removed. Buildings are considered as a volume of space surrounded by light. Modern architecture breaks away from cluttered designs. This architecture is inspired by location, function, and layout. Flee of clutter and unnecessary elements, you home can enjoy the simplicity of this exclusive style. Some individuals like to combine modern elements with their personal style. You can choose your own design elements such as color, texture and furnishings and incorporate them into your modern home.
Modern architects enjoy integrating lines into their modern designs. Strong linear elements such as posts, cutouts, beams, staircases, windows etc. can create a linear-inspired space. Lines in this type of architecture are generally straight and angled. Curves don’t go with modern architecture design since they rend themselves more to a detailed architectural style.

A malware similar in nature to Stuxnet but more aggressive and sophisticated allegedly hit the infrastructure and strategic networks in Iran.
Details about the supposed new attack are superficial at the moment, as there are no details about the supposed attack, the damage it caused or its targets.
The Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei in a televised speech on Sunday said that the country’s civil defenses should adapt to fight enemy infiltration via new threats.
On the same day, General Gholamreza Jalali, Iran’s head of the Passive Defense Organization that is charged with combating sabotage activity, was quoted by ISNA news agency saying that the agency discovered and neutralized “a new generation of Stuxnet which consisted of several parts” that was trying to breach Iranian systems.
Considering the news coverage and attention received from several cybersecurity companies that analyzed its modules, Stuxnet is unlikely to emerge in a recognizable version. General Jalil could have referred to malware with destructive modules that attempted to infiltrate and attack Iranian infrastructure.
The Hadashot report was preceded by a communication about Mossad intelligence agency stopping a murder plot targeting three Iranians in Denmark.
Before this, media outlets covered news about General Jalali saying that President Hassan Rouhani’s mobile phone had to be replaced recently with a more secure variant because it had been tapped.
The source of the information was the ISNA news agency quoting the Iranian official on Monday.
The Passive Defense Organization’s Public Relations Department dismissed the news as false, stating that the information was taken out of context.
The agency clarified that General Jalali’s remarks were a warning about the risk of interception in the case of unencrypted calls Iran’s officials make when abroad.
“Recently, some media outlets have published remarks by Brigadier General Gholamreza Jalali which were taken out of context with regard to the president’s mobile phone being tapped, which is strongly denied,” the statement read. | 2019-04-25T17:43:44Z | https://www.darkmoreops.com/2018/11/01/new-stuxnet-variant-allegedly-struck-iran/ |

"I am the Doctor. Whether you like it or not."
Peter Davison's final season was once again shown twice-weekly. It kicked off with 'Warriors of the Deep which saw the return of both the Silurians and the Sea Devils, last seen during the Pertwee era. Set on an underwater sea base 100 years in the future, the Doctor, Tegan and Turlough have to help the crew of the sea base to defeat the Silurians and Sea Devils who are trying to start a nuclear war that will wipe out the human race.
It's fair to say that 'Warriors of the Deep' is not a well-loved story, either by fans or those who worked on it. By all accounts time was very tight during filming, even more so than normal. A lot of the scenes had to be recorded in one take which made things rather fraught. And then there's the Myrka.
The Myrka was supposed to be a fearsome undersea monster, unleashed by the Sea Devils on the crew of the sea base. In reality, it looked like a pantomime horse (and was, in fact operated, by the same men who operated Dobbin the pantomime horse in Rentaghost), the costume still had wet paint on it, which rubbed off on the set and the scent of the glue used to put the costume together was so strong that one of the operators almost got high from the smell of it. Overall not a great success.
Fortunately, the next story 'The Awakening' was rather more successful. The TARDIS crew travel to a small English village called Little Hodcombe to visit Tegan's grandfather. They find a series of English Civil War re-enactments taking place which is not really that unusual. However those behind the re-enactments are under the mental control of a giant alien creature called the Malus. The Malus crashed down to Earth hundreds of years earlier and was trapped beneath the village church.
One of the highlights of the story, and an enduring image from when I first watched this as a youngster, is the sight of the giant head of the Malus trying to break out of the wall of the church.
After defeating the Malus and spending some quality time with Tegan's grandfather, the TARDIS travels to the far future and a remote Earth colony called 'Frontios'. As is implied by the title, Frontios is a frontier world where the colonists are struggling to survive. They're not helped by the fact that they are under attack from giant woodlice-like creatures called Tractators who are able to control gravity.
...straight into a Dalek time corridor. Yes, the Daleks are back in their first full story since 1979's 'Destiny of the Daleks'. Rather appropriately the story is entitled 'Resurrection of the Daleks' although strictly speaking it should probably be called 'Resurrection of Davros'.
A sequel of sorts to 'Destiny of the Daleks', 'Resurrection sees the Daleks attacking the prison ship that holds Davros and freeing him from imprisonment. They want Davros to help create the cure to virus that is killing the Daleks. Davros has other ideas though and instead creates his own little army of Daleks loyal to him rather than the Supreme Dalek that rescued him.
The story ends with a big battle on present day Earth between two different factions of Daleks with the Doctor and his companions caught in the middle. In the aftermath of the bloody battle, with both Daleks and Davros apparently disposed of, Tegan decides to stay on Earth having decided that travelling with the Doctor has stopped being fun.
Two things to look out for in this story: the first is an early TV appearance by Leslie Grantham, who in a year's time would become famous as Dirty Den Watts in EastEnders. Secondly, this story introduces us to the character of Lytton, an alien mercenary who is working for the Daleks. He spends much of the story posing as a police officer on Earth alongside two silent but deadly henchmen disguised as constables. These three men are the only characters other than the Doctor and his companions, to come out of this story alive and they will appear again.
'Planet of Fire' sees the departure of two companions and the introduction of a new one. "Two companions?" I hear you say, "but surely Tegan left in the last story?" Indeed she did but you may have forgotten that Kamelion joined the TARDIS crew last year. Certainly it seems like the production team did as this is his first, and indeed last, appearance since 'The King's Demons'.
Kamelion is once again under the control of the Master who has inadvertently managed to miniaturise himself and needs Kamelion to restore him to his normal size. Kamelion takes the TARDIS to the planet of Sarn to restore the Master. Also along for the ride is a young American called Perpugilliam Brown. fortunately she goes by 'Peri' for short.
Meanwhile we learn something of Turlough's mysterious past. He is from a planet called Trion and his family were apparently involved in some sort of rebellion against the leaders of that world. Turlough was exiled to Earth while the rest of his family were sent to Sarn. Here Turlough is reunited with his brother and decides to return home to face up to his actions. Meanwhile, Kamelion is destroyed in a final confrontation with the Master.
With Turlough and Kamelion both gone, Peri chooses to continue travelling with the Doctor. But they have barely got to know each other before they head off to the planet Androzani Minor for Peter Davison's final story, 'The Caves of Androzani'.
This story is classed as one of the best Doctor Who stories ever. It's certainly the best regeneration story. Less than five minutes in to the story both the Doctor and Peri are poisoned and it becomes a race against time to save their lives. They two of them are thrust into the midst of a war between the Androzani military, who want access to a rare drug mined in the caves, and the android army of Sharez Jek, a physically and mentally scarred genius who wants to keep the drug to himself.
For once, the Doctor has no interest in aiding either one side or the other. Though drawn into their struggle, his only interest is finding a cure and saving both himself and Peri. Of all the other characters the Doctor encounters in this story, only the mad Sharez Jek has any interest in aiding the Doctor and that's only because Jek is attracted to Peri.
Ordinarily a regeneration story would mark the end of the current season, however for only the second time in the series' history the Doctor regenerates part-way through the season. The only other time this had occurred was back in 1966 when William Hartnell changed into Patrick Troughton.
This meant that we had one full story with the Sixth Doctor to round out the season. That story was 'The Twin Dilemma' and, in pretty much every way you can think of (including fan appreciation) is about as far from 'Caves of Androzani' as you can get.
The story sees the Doctor and Peri investigating the abduction of genius twin brothers, Romulus and Remus, whose intellect is being used for nefarious. But to be honest the story is best remembered for two reasons. First of all, we get the first on-screen appearance of the Sixth Doctor's infamous costume which, once seen is impossible to forget. More importantly this is the story that the sees the newly-regenerated Doctor attempt to kill his companion.
The picture says it all: the Doctor strangles Peri and although his mental instability is explained as being a result of the regeneration, the whole thing is still inexcusable and does the character no favours at all. In fact, the Sixth Doctor is only marginally more likable at the end of the story than he was at the start (a deliberate choice by the production team) and it probably left a number of viewers less than enthusiastic about the next season.
Meanwhile, on video, Revenge of the Cybermen was given a re-release, this time with the correct Cyberman on the cover. Another Fourth Doctor story, 'The Brain of Morbius' was also released but there were concerns about it being too horrific so about half an hour of the story was edited out. It was also released on LaserDisc.
Also released in 1984 were the first two videos in a fan-produced series called 'Mythmakers' The 'Mythmakers' were a long-running series of interview videos which would feature an extensive interview with those who made Doctor Who: from the actors to writers and directors. The first two subjects to be interviewed were Michael Wisher (the actor who first played Davros) and John Leeson, the voice of K9.
Nothing at all, as far I know, this year.
The novelisations once again focused heavily on the Fifth Doctor but there were also books for the first three Doctors published. For the Fifth Doctor, 'Mawdryn Undead', 'Kinda', 'Snakedance', 'Enlightenment', 'Warriors of the Deep' and 'Frontios' all received the novelisation treatment. Of these, Terrance Dicks novelised 'Kinda', 'Snakedance' and 'Warriors of the Deep' while the others were written by their original television authors. For the other Doctors, John Lucarotti novelised his scripts for First Doctor story 'The Aztecs' while Gerry Davies did the same for the Second Doctor's 'The Highlanders'. Ian Marter novelised another Second Doctor story, 'The Dominators' and Terrance Dicks novelised Third Doctor story 'Inferno' in what was one of his best books in years.
The follow-up to 1983's successful 'A Celebration' was published. Again written by Peter Haining, 'The Key to Time', like it predecessor, covered the history of the programme, this time focusing on key dates from the series' production.
Moon Boots & Dinner Suits - Jon Pertwee became the first of the Doctors to release an autobiography. The intriguingly named 'Moon Boots and Dinner Suits' focused on Pertwee's early life and career prior to Doctor Who and was highly acclaimed at the time. It's been out of print for many years but in 2013 was republished for the first time. By all accounts this was intended to be just the first volume of Pertwee's life but a sequel wouldn't be seen for many years.
The Fifth Doctor's era came to an end in the comic strip at around the same time as it did on TV. The final comic strip story was called 'The Moderator' and introduced a character would return a few times over the years to plague the Doctor. His name is Josiah Dogbolter, giant alien frog and ruthless businessman.
This storyline carries over to the first of the Sixth Doctor strips, titled 'The Shape Shifter'. Incidentally, this issue of the Doctor Who Magazine (issue 88) was also the first to feature Colin Baker on the cover, complete with the tag line 'Colin Baker is the Doctor'.
'The Shape Shifter' not only sees the return of Josiah Dogbolter, whom the Doctor is looking to teach a lesson to, but also introduces us to a new companion, quite unlike any the Doctor has had before. Frosisher is the shape-shifter of the title. He also happens to be a private eye who ends up teaming with the Doctor to steal a large amount of money from Dogbolter. Mission accomplished, Frobisher chooses to stick around for a while.
The next story, 'Voyager' sees the Doctor and Frobisher (who has chosen to stay in the form of a penguin "for personal reasons") encounter another renegade Time Lord called Astrolabus. He's completely mad and very, very eccentric. He's also on the run after stealing some ancient star charts from a powerful, almost god-like being called Voyager. Voyager gives the Doctor the task of finding Astrolabus and returning his missing star charts. This is a story arc that will continue over the next couple of stories.
The final strips published in 1984 were the first two parts of 'Polly the Glot', which saw the return of Professor Ivan Asimoff, last seen in Fourth Doctor strip 'The Free-fall Warriors'. 'Polly the Glot' is a humorous tale which sees the Doctor and Frobisher help the Professor to save an endangered species from being hunted down by the dullest alien race in the galaxy. But things take a darker turn when it appears that Astrolabus is posing as the President of the charity that's trying to save the endangered species. | 2019-04-19T18:18:30Z | https://sitime.blogspot.com/2013/06/the-doctor-who-50-50-part-23-1984.html |

Dresden, 9/18/2018 The development of the H2 infrastructure in Germany is making good headway: Today, the first hydrogen filling station in Saxony was inaugurated at the TOTAL service station in Dresden on Wiener Straße. Dresden is one of the first 50 hydrogen (H2) service stations in Germany and an important contribution to enable eco-friendly electromobility for fuel cell vehicles. The new hydrogen facility was built by H2 MOBILITY with support from the European Union. Stefan Brangs, State Secretary in the Saxon State Ministry for Economic Affairs, Labor and Transport, was able to announce a further step in the expansion of the hydrogen network during the ceremonial first filling of a fuel cell vehicle: In Leipzig, the next hydrogen service station has already been completed at the TOTAL truck stop in Poststraße.
The technology for the new hydrogen facility at the TOTAL service station in Dresden is produced by Air Liquide and has the refuelling capacity for up to 40 vehicles per day. The primary goal of the joint venture H2 MOBILITY, formed by the companies Air Liquide, Daimler, Linde, OMV, Shell, and TOTAL, is to operate 100 stations in metropolitan areas in Germany and along motorways and highways by 2019. Another 300 hydrogen filling stations will follow as the vehicle numbers are ramped up.
For the establishment of the hydrogen station in Dresden, H2 MOBILITY has received funding from the European Commission’s trans-European Transport Network (TEN-T CEF) within the project Connecting Hydrogen Refuelling Stations (COHRS). In the past years, the development of Germany’s H2 network had advanced significantly thanks to the Clean Energy Partnership (CEP), an association of industrial representatives of diverse sectors funded by the German government within the scope of the National Innovation Programme Hydrogen and Fuel Cell Technology (NIP). Within the framework of the NOW GmbH, the federal government is also an associated partner of H2 MOBILITY.
Eco-friendly electromobility using hydrogen causes no local pollutants or CO2 emissions and, thanks to short refuelling times and long ranges, offers a high level of driving convenience. Fuel cell vehicles can be refuelled in under five minutes with enough fuel for a reach of up to 800 kilometers.
"To become modern and smart, cities must develop sustainable mobility concepts. Hydrogen from renewable energies – preferably produced in the region – is certainly a key technology for the electromobility of the future. Therefore, I am pleased to see that the white spots on the map in eastern and central Germany are slowly becoming smaller and that there are more and more public hydrogen filling stations. Because the establishment of a dense European network of hydrogen service stations is the basic prerequisite for more people switching to this type of drive."
"As a pioneer in our industry, we have been active in the development of hydrogen mobility in Germany for 16 years. All the more reason for us to be pleased that the expansion of the H2 service station network is gaining momentum. We have only just reached an important milestone with the opening of the 50th German hydrogen station in Potsdam together with our partners from industry and politics, and now Saxony's first hydrogen station marks another important step. Further projects at TOTAL service stations in Leipzig, Magdeburg, Erfurt and Neuruppin will soon enable eco-friendly mobility with hydrogen throughout eastern Germany."
"We need to face the challenges of energy transition now. And hydrogen is today one of our best solutions to achieve the objectives of the Paris Agreement. Hydrogen has notably the potential to efficiently decarbonize the transport sector which is one of the major sources of pollution in our cities, but it requires a dedicated infrastructure to achieve this goal. Air Liquide is proud to contribute, together with the key private and public players, to the building of the biggest hydrogen infrastructure in Europe, and thus enable the deployment of FCEVs on the territory."
„Hydrogen offers an electromobility solution without restrictions: dynamic acceleration, short refuelling times and ranges comparable to conventional cars. We are delighted that more and more hydrogen pioneers are taking advantage of our fast-growing service station network. There will be 100 stations by the end of 2019! Anyone who wishes, can follow our progress via our app H2.LIVE."
06 September 2018, Ratingen – H2 MOBILITY Deutschland and its shareholders Shell and Air Liquide today opened the seventh hydrogen (H2) station in the German state of North Rhine-Westphalia. By commissioning the station at Brachter Straße 36, the partners take a further step towards a nationwide H2 supply network in Germany.
The service station is located directly at the Ratingen Ost motorway junction (A44/A3) in the Essen and Düsseldorf catchment area – so drivers of emissions-free fuel-cell cars now have another refuelling option on the important north-west axis between Hamburg and the Ruhr region.
The owner and operator of the new H2 station at Shell Autohof is the H2 MOBILITY joint venture. The filling station technology comes from Air Liquide. The hydrogen station is state of the art. It features intuitive driver-side operation; refuelling is similar to that of conventional vehicles and can be completed in three to five minutes. The facility can hold around 200 kilograms of hydrogen - enough to refuel 40 to 50 vehicles a day.
In North Rhine-Westphalia, H2 stations will also be opened at the Shell filling stations in Essen, Dortmund, Mönchengladbach, Leverkusen and Aachen in the months ahead; a similar Shell station has already been open in Wuppertal for two years. Other H2 stations exist in Düsseldorf, Cologne-Bonn, Kamen, Mülheim and Münster.
Hydrogen offers an opportunity to expand the fuel supply in the transport sector in a climate-friendly way: Hydrogen produced with renewable energy, can significantly reduce climate-damaging CO2 emissions. The operation of an H2-powered fuel cell vehicle causes neither local pollutants nor carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions. The range of these vehicles is 500 to 800 kilometres per tank of fuel.
Markus Schewitza, Managing Director of Air Liquide Advanced Technologies GmbH, adds: “At this point, hydrogen is one of the best solutions for achieving the goals of the Paris climate protection agreement, and has the potential to efficiently decarbonise the transport sector, one of the main sources of pollution in our cities. To turn hydrogen-powered electric mobility into a success story, an attractive range of fuel-cell vehicles and an appropriate infrastructure are required. The expansion of the filling station network is making good progress. A Germany-wide network of 100 stations is to be established by 2019. Including Ratingen, there are already 50 stations where one can refuel with hydrogen."
The European Commission is funding a total of 17 facilities – including the one in Ratingen – with a total of 11 million euros in the trans-European Transport Network through its “Connecting Hydrogen Refuelling Stations” (COHRS) project.
31 August 2018, Stuhr – H2 MOBILITY Deutschland, Shell, and Nel today opened Lower Saxony’s second hydrogen (H2) station. In commissioning the station at the Shell Autohof Stuhr - Groß Mackenstedt rest stop, the partners are taking a further step towards establishing a nationwide H2 supply network in Germany.
The rest stop is located directly at the Stuhr junction on the BAB 1 motorway, or the Groß Mackenstedt exit on the BAB 28 – in the Bremen/Delmenhorst/Oldenburg catchment area. Drivers of emissions-free fuel-cell cars now have another refuelling option on the important north-west axis between Hamburg and the Ruhr region.
The owner and operator of the new H2 station at the Shell rest stop is the H2 MOBILITY joint venture. The filling-station technology is by Nel. The hydrogen station is state of the art, and its driver-side operation is intuitive; the refuelling process is similar to that of conventional vehicles and can be completed in three to five minutes. The facility holds around 170 kilograms of hydrogen – enough to refuel 30 to 40 vehicles a day.
Hydrogen offers a way to expand the range of fuels in the transport sector in a climate-friendly way: Hydrogen produced with renewable energy can significantly reduce climate-damaging CO2 emissions. The operation of an H2-powered fuel-cell vehicle causes neither local pollutants nor carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions. Such vehicles currently have a range of 500 to 800 kilometres on a full tank of fuel.
Ensuring that hydrogen-powered electric mobility becomes a success story requires an attractive range of fuel-cell vehicles in conjunction with an appropriate supply infrastructure. The expansion of the network of filling stations is making good progress. A Germany-wide network of 100 stations is to be established by 2019. With the addition of Stuhr Groß Mackenstedt, it is now possible to refuel at 45 stations across Germany.
The European Commission is funding a total of 17 facilities in the ‘trans-European Transport Network (TEN-T CEF)’, including the Stuhr station, with a total of 11 million euros, through its ‘Connecting Hydrogen Refuelling Stations’ (COHRS) project.
Thomas Zengerly, Chairman & CEO, Shell Deutschland Oil GmbH: "Hydrogen technology is a promising way forward, and hydrogen a fuel that lends itself for clean mobility. We expect that this alternative drive will play an increasingly important role in markets such as Germany, England, Benelux, the USA, and Japan from the 2020s onwards. At Shell, we are on course for this development.
"Germany is on its way to becoming a trailblazer in the field of hydrogen-powered electromobility. We are currently building the backbone of the hydrogen infrastructure with the first 100 stations in metropolitan areas as well as along highways and motorways. We are basing the expansion of this network on demand."
"It is time to reduce greenhouse gases in the transport sector too. I assume that battery-powered solutions can meet many, but certainly not all mobility requirements in this way. That's why we also need the option of fuel-cell-powered electric drives."
"From now on, many drivers will refuel their hydrogen vehicles in our district when travelling from northern to western Germany - we're proud of this, and it strengthens us as a mobility region/centre in northern Germany."
"Hydrogen and fuel-cell vehicles contribute to the success of the energy transition, including in the mobility sector. This new offer further strengthens Stuhr as a place of business."
June 18, 2018, Kassel-Lohfelden – H2 Mobility Deutschland and its shareholders Shell and Air Liquide have today jointly opened the first hydrogen (in short H2) refuelling station in the Kassel district – the fifth in the state of Hesse. With the refuelling station at Shell SVG Autohof Lohfelden, the partners are taking a further step towards a comprehensive H2 supply network in Germany.
The service station is located directly at the Kassel-Mitte intersection of federal motorways 7 and 49, and close to motorways 44 and 38. This now provides drivers of zero-emission fuel-cell vehicles with an additional refuelling opportunity on the important north-south axis between Frankfurt and Hanover as well.
The principal and operator of the new H2 refuelling station is the joint venture H2 Mobility, which is establishing a hydrogen infrastructure in Germany. The Shell SVG Autohof is owned by SVG Hessen. The refuelling station technology comes from gas and technology company Air Liquide.
The hydrogen refuelling station conforms to the state of the art. Self-service operation by drivers is intuitive; refuelling is similar to conventional vehicles and takes three to five minutes. The facility holds around 200 kg of hydrogen – enough to refuel 40 to 50 vehicles a day.
E-mobility with hydrogen reduces CO2 emissions.
Hydrogen offers the opportunity of augmenting the fuel offering in the transport sector in an environmentally-friendly way: since with the help of hydrogen, which is produced with renewable energy, climate-damaging CO2 emissions can be considerably reduced. Running an H2-powered fuel-cell vehicle produces neither local pollutants nor carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions. The range of these vehicles is between 500 and 800 kilometres per tankful.
In order to turn electomobility with hydrogen into a success story, an attractive proposition of fuel-cell vehicles as well as a corresponding supply infrastructure is required. The expansion of the requisite refuelling station network is making good progress. By 2019, a network of 100 refuelling stations is to be established across Germany. With Lohfelden you can now refuel at 44 stations already.
The EUR 1.4 million facility is being supported by the European Commission in the Trans-European Transport Network (TEN-T CEF), in the “Connecting Hydrogen Refuelling Stations” (COHRS) project.
"Hydrogen is today one of our best solutions to achieve the objectives of the Paris Agreement. Hydrogen has notably the potential to efficiently decarbonize the transport sector which is one of the major source of pollution in our cities. Air Liquide is proud to contribute, together with the key private and public players, to the building of the biggest hydrogen infrastructure in Europe."
“On the journey from the north to the south as well as from the west to the east of Germany, many motorists will in future be able to fill up with us in Northern Hesse – we’re proud of that, which strengthens us as a mobility region in the middle of Germany”.
Robert Seeber, member of the Federal Council, Karl Kollingbaum, Mayor of the Borough of Asten, and Wilfried Gepp, Manager of the OMV filling station business in Austria, opened the OMV hydrogen filling station in Asten, near Linz in Upper Austria today. OMV thereby now operates the third hydrogen filling station in Austria. OMV, the international, integrated oil and gas company, headquartered in Vienna, has therefore taken another key step towards readying major European traffic routes for hydrogen on the road. The new filling station is situated directly on the Westautobahn A1 – one of Europe’s most important traffic axes. Officially opened today, the OMV station enhances Austria’s connection to a Europe-wide hydrogen filling station network for vehicles powered by fuel cells.

I swear I perform more of a disappearing act these days then is acceptable.
I don't know where the time goes but I hate how little of it is spent here!
I usually take Yoga Tuesday nights but this week I wasn't really feeling it so I cleaned instead.
Something to remember for next time... yoga > cleaning.
I came up with a delicious protein pancake recipe Monday night, blueberry with maple almond butter.
I'll admit I am feeling a little guilty about blowing my "plan" already but I can get back on track and readjust for next week. It may not be ideal for me to have shakes as dinner but I can have them for breakfast or lunch then stick to lean proteins/greens at night.
I'll report back on how it comes out.
Also, I miss my Friday Favorites posts....I really want to try and bring them back in the next few weeks, hold tight for that. For now lets just get me back to blogging 5x a week instead of going missing, okay?
Great Post! I think we all need to be reminded that we are human after all, and we can't be perfect 24/7. Thank you for being so honest. Your workouts this week as well as the rest of your eats sound great, and lets be real, who can resist homemade garlic bread?! ;) have a great day!
Yay for kickboxing! That's tough stuff; atta girl! And that other stuff happens... It does! To everyone! You just regroup. No worries.
Keep rockin'! You are A-DOR-A-BLE!
Glad to see a post from you!!! I love the gym unicorn thing hahah....you are still doing great on plan and i made your mexi sweet tater and it was SO good!!! | 2019-04-20T10:26:20Z | http://www.justkeepsweating.com/2013/03/failing-already.html |
Exploring geometry and reflection, these double-sided freestanding decorative Objekt mirrors are a playful way to add visual interest to a shelf or sideboard. Each Objekt has a regular mirrored side and a tinted mirror side, allowing for multiple looks and experimentation, especially when grouped together with other products from the Objekt range.
Product care: To clean, wipe the mirror surface with a cloth dampened in water then buff the mirror surface dry with a second lint-free cloth. Lightly dust the frame as necessary. Do not spray any liquids directly onto the mirror surface. Do not use any liquid cleaners that contain corrosive chemicals such as ammonia, products like Windex, or acids such as vinegar. Do not allow any liquids to come into contact with the frame. | 2019-04-21T04:27:25Z | https://www.marr-kett.com.au/collections/mirrors-wall-art/products/middle-of-nowhere-objekt-small-powder |
The Lifson Factory Shop is the place where the terms luxury, quality and comfort can be used together in one breath.
Every product, whether it is a duvet, a pillow or scatter, obtained from the Lifson Linen Factory Shop is manufactured from raw materials that are obtained using ethical methods. Buyers will also know that the range of products in the factory shop are safe for those who suffer from allergies associated with house dust mite.
While no one will pretend that the Lifson Linen Factory Shop is the largest manufacturer of bedding in South Africa, many agree when they hear that it is the market leader when it comes to speed and reliability. If there is one thing that everyone at Lifson is proud of, it has to be the quality of service and great relationships that they have with every one of their customers. They are also cognisant of the fact that good relationships with suppliers are a must for a company that wants to get the best raw materials available.
The factory shop sells genuine down and feather duvets. They also stock alternative pillows and duvets.
Every activity at Lifson is geared to ensure that the customer walks away with a feeling that the product they are carrying is the best quality in the market. Every worker makes comfort and luxury the centre of every endeavor.
To ensure that they keep this tradition, Lifson buyers travel the world looking for the best raw materials they can get. What makes their job even more rigorous is that they do not only concentrate on good raw materials, they also want to know where they are sourced from. This is the reason why they have come to be the synonym for innovation when it comes to bedding.
According to this company, those who are looking for “Any old duvet or pillow” should look elsewhere as these are not made at Lifson.
Selecting a product from a Lifson Linen Factory Shop is a wise decision. Why? Because this is an investment in a quality product that will offer nothing but comfort. Secondly, because the products are made from raw materials that are ethically sourced. This preserves the earth and ensures that there will continue to be a supply of such materials. | 2019-04-23T02:52:29Z | https://factoryshophub.co.za/lifson-linen-factory-shop-where-comfort-luxury-quality-meet/ |
We’ve discussed the reasons for human error in finance departments, and how you can prevent it from a staff and data management perspective.
Relating this expression to the processes owned by the finance team, the house that most often needs to get in order is the Close, Consolidate, Report & File process, or CCRF. The timeliness and accuracy of this process are pivotal for company survival. Still, many companies struggle with this process for many reasons.
The early financial reporting grave that you may find yourself in when your processes are too unwieldy is dug by many different hands, but the funeral is held at your stakeholders’ offices.
We look in detail at the impact that human errors have on your stakeholder confidence and investment opportunities.
The Harvard Business Review shares a pretty ‘Doom and Gloom’ take on this kind of error – with reference to the banking crisis of 2007, and how financial reporting played a key role in the end of Enron.
However, even though that is an example that seems like the ‘Titanic’ of reporting shortfalls (or even manipulations), there are some great insights to take from it.
Investors need to make decisions. Decisions are influenced by the financial performance of your company. Financial performance reporting, in turn, is heavily impacted by the people who manage the reporting process.
Implementing a good FP&A system in your business, and setting it up correctly, can help you to ensure that your investors know the score, and have access to a transparent reporting infrastructure. This inspires investor and stakeholder confidence and allows your business to efficiently deal with any funding, production, or investment shortfalls through accurate and well-planned budgeting.
In addition, the solution will give you a steady, accurate, and timeous reporting structure, that gives your investors and stakeholders an accurate and realistic picture of your business. | 2019-04-19T13:04:59Z | http://www.cortell.co.za/human-error-deep-impact/ |

Rocket Internet -backed food delivery business Foodpanda is divesting yet more of its international holdings. Today the company announced that it would sell Russian Delivery Club, its operations in Russia, to Mail.Ru Group for $100 million.
Foodpanda said the sale would help it “further focus in our core regions”, by way of investing the proceeds in its other operations. It comes as Mail.Ru looks for more services it can sell to its large audience in Russia. Mail.ru says it touches 94% of the country’s Internet-using population across properties like Mail.ru; VK.com, the Facebook-like social network popular in Russia; and ICQ.
It was a relatively short stay in Russia for Foodpanda. It first entered the Russian market in 2012 and bulked up in 2014 when it acquired local player Delivery Club.
It’s not clear what the valuation of this individual operation was but Foodpanda said it contributed 10% of Foodpanda’s revenues. The company is positioning it as a win: “a great return” in its words.
But it comes as one of its parent companies, the now-publicly traded Rocket Internet, which owns 49% of Foodpanda, continues to try to whittle down its many-tentacled, loss-making business of incubating and growing dozens of e-commerce startups around the world, which has proven to be a challenge. Foodpanda now will be active in 20 markets.
Other Foodpanda sales this year have included selling holdings in Spain, Italy, Brazil and Mexico to Just-Eat for $140 million, and selling off operations in Southeast Asia including Indonesia.
It’s also been part of a bigger consolidation play that Rocket Internet calls (in its charismatic way) the Global Online Takeaway Group, which has seen the company make an investment in Delivery Hero as well as swap assets with this one-time rival.
It’s not clear if the Russian business was profitable in itself but more generally, it’s a sign both of the difficulties of scaling profitably in the market for online takeaway and delivery services, and of the challenges these days of raising external cash to bridge the gap.
Indeed, this is a way for Foodpanda to finance itself. “The cash proceeds will be re-invested to continue the expansion in Foodpanda’s core regions in Asia, Middle East and Eastern Europe,” the company writes.
And the core is definitely something that Foodpanda needs to focus on now, because even if Foodpanda now plays nice with Delivery Hero, there are a number of new competitive threats on the horizon, including Deliveroo, Uber Eats and now Amazon Restaurants.
Uber Eats is a big new priority for the formidable Uber transportation business, and this summer it hired a new exec in Asia to build the business out there.
Foodpanda has disclosed in total some $318 million of external funding. “Disclosed” because it may be more, since there has been a lack of transparency about much of the funding for Rocket-incubated startups. This is all that has been disclosed publicly.
For Mail.Ru, it’s another sign of how the company is trying to diversify its business and add more services on top of its existing business, which includes Russia’s most popular email client (mail.ru) as well as social network VK.com, known as “the Facebook of Russia,” and messaging platform ICQ.
In addition to other services like games, Mail.Ru is borrowing a page from Google and Yandex and now building more transactional services leveraging that huge audience.
