Excess mileage rate applies should this be exceeded. Indemnities may be required in certain circumstances. Finance is only available to persons aged 18 or over, subject to status. All figures are correct at time of publication but may be subject to change. Credit provided by Honda Finance Europe Plc Cain Road, Bracknell, RG12 1HL. Honda Finance Europe Plc is authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority, Financial Services Register number 312541.
The legion of VFR800F fans know exactly what they like about their bike and also what they’d like more – and less – of in a new model. With such an important model Honda has listened intently to customers’ views; in essence they want a high-quality motorcycle with strong low and mid-range torque, light and slim but just as capable and adaptable, with a return to the evocative look and feel of VFRs of the past.
Two factors were key drivers for Honda’s engineers in development of the new VFR800F – firstly, to retain and expand the essential VFR qualities that inspire so many, and, secondly, to update the new model with modern features and technologies.
Starting with the 782cc V4-VTEC engine, bottom and mid-range power have been boosted, to strike the ideal balance of enjoyable sports riding and easy commuting. The VTEC transition has been softened and the resulting power delivery is smooth, strong and linear. Honda’s TCS (Traction Control System) has also been added.
Extensive work has gone into making the new VFR800F lighter than its predecessor, a whole 7kg lighter in fact. A single exhaust muffler has replaced the dual underseat design of the previous model and a host of detail changes save weight.
A brand new Pro-Arm single-sided swingarm, 43mm telescopic fork, radial-mount four-piston front brake calipers and redesigned wheels hang from the quintessentially VFR twin-spar aluminium beam frame. Seat height is adjustable by 20mm, ABS is fitted as standard and – for the first time – a Honda Genuine Accessories shift assist system is available to bolt straight on.
And then there’s the styling. Considerably slimmer in the middle than the outgoing bike the 2014 VFR800F mixes a sleek silhouette with crisp, contemporary angles – and more than an echo of classic VFR design.
The VFR800F’s 782cc, liquid-cooled 16-valve DOHC 90° V4-VTEC engine has received significant development – mainly focusing on cam timing and valve duration/overlap – to deliver the required increase in low-to midrange power and torque. Peak power of 77.9kW is delivered at 10,250rpm, with peak torque of 75.1Nm arriving at 8,500rpm.
VTEC valve timing still operates one pair of inlet/exhaust valves per cylinder at low rpm, and then switches to four as revs rise but the transition is now seamless. Combined with the uprated torque, the effect is a remarkably linear power delivery and effortless overtaking at highway speeds.
Bore and stroke is 72mm x 48mm, with compression ratio of 11.8:1. The PGM-FI fuel injection – with 36mm throttle bodies – has been remapped to suit the engine’s new performance parameters, and fuel economy is 19.4km/l (WMTC).
The diamond triple-box section aluminium twin-spar frame is unchanged; a revised die-cast aluminium subframe is significantly lighter than the previous model. In total, kerb weight is reduced by 7kg to 242kg. Rake is set at 25°30’ with trail of 95mm and 1,460mm wheelbase.
Completely new are the aluminium single-sided Pro-arm swingarm and 43mm Honda Multi-Action System (HMAS) telescopic fork. They feature stepless spring preload adjustment and 108mm wheel travel; the HMAS gas-charged rear shock operates through a Pro-Link suspension linkage with remote spring preload and stepless rebound damping adjustment.
The fork lowers have been redesigned in two pieces to accept radial-mount four-piston brake calipers. New Fine Die-Cast (FDC) hollow aluminium wheels employ dual 310mm floating discs up front and a 256mm disc at the rear. The front rim is a 17M/C x MT3.50, the rear a 17M/C x MT5.50 with 120/70 ZR17M/C (58W) and 180/55 ZR17M/C (73W) tyres. 2-channel ABS provides consistent and safe all-weather stopping control.
‘Elegant Sport’ is the essence of the VFR800F and its stunning new bodywork not only provides a contemporary outline, with a mixture of sharp angles and soft curves it pays respect to design elements from the VFR’s history – details like the small air intake duct on the fairing’s flank.
The VFR-signature ‘X’ headlight shape is updated and now features LED lights – a first for Honda. Positional lights are integrated with the wing mirrors, just like the VFR1200F. At the rear, the wide, angular tailpiece offers plenty of room for a pillion and features an LED rear light unit with combined indicators for a clean look. With fuel economy of 19.4km/l (WMTC), the 21.5-litre fuel tank offers a 350km plus cruising range.
At 500mm the width around the middle cowl is reduced by 40mm giving the VFR800F a slim and compact feel. The seat is height adjustable (789mm or 809mm) using the tool provided and a handlebar height spacer, adding 15mm is available as a Honda Genuine Accessory.
A new dashboard houses a digital speedometer/tachometer plus gear position indicator, ambient temperature gauge, fuel consumption information and clock. There’s also an indicator for the 5-stage heated grips, which are fitted as standard. A compact automotive-style ‘wave’ design key – with internal grooving – reduces the chance of breakage.
For the very first time Honda Genuine Accessories are offering a shift assist system. Designed to bolt on and plug straight in it provides race-style split-second upshifts with no need to use the clutch.

I would have picked this book up in any case, as I’m a big fan of Banks and could probably enjoy reading him write about the intracacies of inventory management, but since we are headed to Scotland next September, I found this book–about Scotch whiskey and the Scotland distilleries that make it–quite fortuitious. This is Banks’s first book of non-fiction, having made his career on both the literary fiction that appears under his own name and the science fiction that appears under his obvious nom de plume of “Iain M. Banks” (a full explanation of just why appears within this current text), and he spends quite a bit of time just coming to terms with the joy that is his as a successful author who can suggest to his publisher that he write a book based on his hobby–drinking whiskey–and then actually get paid for not only writing it, but have an expense account with which he can indulge his hobbistic fantasies. And, of course, there’s all the friends who are incredulous at first, but quick to offer to lend a hand (well, I would have, too!).
As a tour book or even a guide to Scotland and its distilleries, this is a poor entry, but as a travel book in which something is discovered about the land and the man,Raw Spirit fits the bill perfectly. Perhaps there’s something inherently Scottish in the fact that this could likely have been billed as Banks’s autobiography, rather than a drinking quest. In either case, it’s probably of much more interest to a fan of the man than a fan of the drink. Even as such, I identified a number of potential stops along the way for my own trip as well as now having a template for my own travel diary.

Shortly after 8pm on Thursday, June 25, Kyle Police responding to a check-welfare call at 810 S. Sledge St. found two bodies in the home. Jim Wright, 45, lay out in the hallway of the home he rented. Tina Combs, 44, who had traveled to Kyle from her home in Arlington, was in the master bedroom down the hall.
Throughout the summer, little information about the murders was forthcoming. In early September, the city issued a press release indicating that an investigation was ongoing. On Sept. 17, the Hays Free Press reported that the official autopsy – released by Hays County Precinct 2 Justice of the Peace Beth Smith – indicated that Tina was killed by gunshot and stab wounds. Jim had died instantly from a bullet to the head.
A December Freedom of Information Act request for autopsy documents was denied; an opinion from a city attorney indicated that, as KPD's investigation was "very active," KPD would decline to provide the Chronicle with a corresponding police report. The department did provide a one-sheet report summary of case details. It listed two suspects: Larry Simon and Ryan Kidd. Midway through January, a spokesperson for the department confirmed to the Chronicle that the Department of Public Safety and "other law enforcement agencies" were assisting KPD detectives. (The U.S. Marshals Service denied any involvement, and the FBI declined to comment.) On Feb. 9, a spokesman for DPS told the Chronicle: "Evidence in this case has been submitted on multiple occasions from July 2015 through January 2016. Some analysis has been completed, but there is evidence still being processed in this case."
"We work on that [case] almost daily," Kyle Police Chief Jeff Barnett told the Press in January. "Weekly, we are making progress or some step forward."
Eight months after the murders, however, friends and family of the deceased tell the Chronicle that discussions with police have been perfunctory. They say the identities of certain relevant figures still catch investigators by surprise. Many have lost faith in KPD, and have begun to question the capabilities of the small department. Those same individuals acknowledge the case's inherent difficulties: Jim and Tina weren't old friends. In fact, they barely knew each other. Aside from isolated instances, the two never spoke to the friends and family of one another. Whoever killed the two could not have conceivably planned to kill them both at the same time. This makes the mystery of who killed Jim and Tina that much more difficult to solve.
"He'd Give You the Shirt Off His Back"
Jim Wright was the youngest of four children born and raised in Indiana. He moved to Austin in 2002, then spent 12 years bopping around the city and surrounding suburbs before settling down in Kyle. There, as everywhere, he made friends almost immediately. If there was a man to call gregarious, said friends and family, you can bet it was Jim Wright.
"He's the kind of guy who takes your call at 2am when he's got to be up at 5," recounted his childhood friend, Tim Eggert, who still lives in Indiana. "Your wife's car's broken down on her way home from work, so he gets out of bed to pick her up. Drives 25 miles to your house to drop her off, then calls a tow truck to bring her car back to his house. He'll fix the car himself and not accept a dime."
Jim never married. He worked construction, rode a Harley, and liked to stay at the bar drinking beer until its close. His natural state was making friends with new people. His three-bedroom house a mile from Kyle's town center routinely hosted guests.
"A freakin' carny circus," said Michael Scheiern, a longtime friend and colleague who helped persuade Jim to move to Kyle. "He's one of those guys: Some oddball he'd meet at a bar would be like, 'Oh, I don't have a place to stay,' and he'd tell them that he's got a spare bedroom. Not just figuratively but literally, he'd give you the shirt off of his back."
Such conviviality would be the perfect complement to Tina Combs, who at the time of her death was out of work, just divorced, and in need of some good fortune. Tina's mother, cousin, eldest daughter, and first ex-husband each spoke to the warmth and resilience she would demonstrate throughout her trials.
She built a family tree just like a live oak: seven kids, two husbands, a granddaughter, and one ex-fiancé. All her cousins were called sisters, all her boys were nicknamed "bub." Her first husband, Randy Hall, still speaks highly of the man for whom she left him, and remembers fondly their time co-coaching his kids in sports.
"We put the funk in dysfunctional," Tina wrote to a Facebook friend just weeks before her murder. "But we put the fun in it, too."
Tina was 18 when she married Randy, a childhood friend of her older brother. By then, they had one child, Mitchell. Their first daughter, Miranda, came along in 1994. Six years later, Tina and Randy would have their second son, Mason, then another daughter, Madison. They built a good, happy life for each other, Randy and Miranda both report: big house, big family, big home-cooked meals every night.
Tina and Randy broke up in 2002 after Tina began a relationship with a co-worker, Jeremy Adams, at Delphi Automotive, where she'd begun working in the factory. It was an ugly divorce between her and Randy, but the two eventually reconciled and forged a strong relationship. "I just want to remind you," Randy wrote to the Chronicle one night recently, "that when Tina and I were married she was the mom [who] took extremely good care of the kids, taking and teaching them in Bible study ... as well as being a class mom. She was awesome. I've got pictures I can send in which you can see the innocence and the devotion."
In 2004, Tina took a transfer from Delphi to General Motors, and with it a move from Indiana to Mansfield, Texas. She moved her four children and Adams, whom she'd made plans to marry. Together they had a son, Meryck, Tina's fifth, but soon after Meryck's birth they split. A sporadic methamphetamine user most her life, Tina slipped into deeper dependence in 2007. Adams went home to Indiana, taking Meryck. Mitch moved out to a friend's house. Mason and Madison went to live with Randy. Miranda, then 13, stayed with her mom.
Tina rented a four-bedroom house in Burleson and fixed it to her liking. In 2008, she started dating Ryan Kidd, who also worked at General Motors. Kidd moved into Tina's house and the two had a child together, Mayleigh. Tina quit her job. (Miranda, at this point in her late teens and with a child of her own, moved to Ft. Worth with her boyfriend.) Kidd bought the home they rented in Nov. 2009. Two years later, the two had a son, Makane. They were married in a courthouse on Feb. 15, 2013.
Miranda and Tina's mother Linda Inlow both report that in Jan. 2014, during a family visit to Indiana, Kidd threw Mayleigh and Makane into his car and drove back to Texas, leaving Tina stranded in a motel room. Johnson County records show he filed for divorce when she returned. The two reconciled during mediation, but by the summer their marriage was over. That summer, Miranda says, while Tina was back in Indiana for her first son's wedding, Kidd went AWOL on her and refused to return her calls. Miranda said Kidd sought divorce again when Tina got back. On Sept. 22, Tina filed the necessary paperwork to make that happen.
Tina split time after the break between Miranda's home and Skeeter's, a trusted friend she'd known since 2007. She met Eric Spaulding in Nov. 2014 and moved into his house in Arlington the following month. A judge determined her separation from Kidd final May 18, 2015. They each got a car. Kidd got to keep the house. And the kids, ages 6 and 4, would split time evenly between them. Tina, however, did not feel as though Kidd was capable of properly caring for their children. In the weeks before her death, Tina texted family members about opening conversations with Child Protective Services to get full custody.
Tina and Jim would have never met had it not been for their ties to Indiana. Though the two didn't know each other as children, they did share one strong connection: Kriste Upton, Tina's cousin, was Jim's neighbor growing up. In early June, Upton put a post on Facebook asking if anybody knew someone who bred blue heelers. Tina chimed in about looking in Texas. That afternoon, Jim seconded her suggestion. The two bonded over shared connections and mutual disdain for Texan drivers before moving their conversation to another medium.
It's not clear whether Jim and Tina ever met in person until the day they were murdered. Friends and family of both of them spoke to their shared penchant for privacy. Tina, while staying with Skeeter, would regularly go absent without announcement. "She liked to run at night," he said. "Oftentimes she'd get back at 3 or 4 [in the morning]." Jim, who answered to no one, kept friends even those closest to him would never meet. "I wouldn't call it a dark side," offered Eggert. "He just wasn't so free about everything in his life."
A few people suggested that the two may have met for lunch one day in Dallas-Ft. Worth, though no hard details have emerged of such a visit. Colleagues have said Jim made a trip to Dallas one day mid-June to return some tools and collect a check from Greenleaf Construction. (The company had hired him to build the Twisted Root Burger building on Burnet Road.) They speculate that Jim and Tina may have had lunch there.
Whether that meeting occurred, there is no evidence that Tina ever spoke to anyone about Jim – no mention of her new friend, or the coincidence of knowing an Indiana native living in Texas. To his friends, Jim made at least three references to Tina by name, and other, more vague references to a friend living in Dallas-Ft. Worth. One night in mid-June, he texted a friend from San Marcos to tell him that he was spending the night in Lakeway at a house that he was renovating. Jim had been on the phone with Tina into the late hours and did not want to make the long drive home.
Jim spent the Sunday before he died at various bars around the area, beginning at Zelicks in San Marcos. There, he told his friend that Tina was hesitant about visiting. He also mentioned a guy he'd met through construction jobs, Larry Simon, who had been staying with him and fallen delinquent on his rent. Simon was three years removed from a 14-year stay in Louisiana custody after being convicted on two counts of simple burglary and one count of aggravated battery, according to a spokesperson from Louisiana's Department of Corrections. (A source later elaborated to say that Simon "beat the pulp" out of a bar patron after deciding the patron had moved too close to Simon's wife.) He was released to Texas on supervision to live with his wife, who moved to Kyle. They reportedly had a fight, however, and he took temporary residence at Jim's place. Tired of seeing Simon spend money on drinks and not able to pay his rent, Jim had begun talking to friends and family about having a come-to-Jesus moment with his tenant.
Interviews the Chronicle has pieced together lay out Jim's activity that Sunday evening. From Zelicks, Jim drove to Kyle and stopped by the Dark Horse Lodge and Down South Railhouse. He drove back to San Marcos around 2am to meet a bartender from the Dark Horse, eventually making his way to Kyle before sunrise. Still up on Monday morning at 6am, he told his niece Rachael via telephone that he had to catch a nap: At 8am, he was meeting Tina at the Casa Maria restaurant off I-35. Tina arrived at the restaurant a few minutes after 8. They ate breakfast, sent three selfies to Jim's friend, paid the check, and went back to Jim's house.
Miranda Hall says that she talked on the phone with her mother just a few minutes before noon. Tina said she had to go and would call her back, but Miranda received no call.
Jim, who rarely went an hour without returning phone calls from his family, did not respond to any calls made by family members to his phone after breakfast.
Jim didn't go to work the Monday that he died because the hardwood floors hadn't shown up. A subcontractor said that Jim called him before breakfast to say he would provide an update around lunch, but Jim never made that second call. The same subcontractor said he called Jim "four or five times" Monday afternoon and another time on Tuesday before stopping by his house on Wednesday. Jim's red Chevy Avalanche was in the driveway, alongside Tina's white Mercedes-Benz ML350.
The subcontractor said he noticed the curtains were drawn in every window of the house – something he hadn't seen before. The front and back doors were both locked. That, too, was uncharacteristic for a man who kept his house open at all hours. The subcontractor checked the garage; the door inside it to the house was also locked. On the dashboard of Jim's truck sat the JNA Construction checkbook for his contracting business. A key usually left in a "wrought iron deal" outside Jim's house was also missing from its spot.
The subcontractor called Kyle Police asking if an officer could be sent out to Jim's house to conduct a welfare check. He says an officer called his house later that day to say that KPD found a receipt from Casa Maria out front but could not break down a door and check inside the house until someone from Jim's family made a request.
A friend and colleague, Michael Scheiern, says he went to Jim's house Thursday morning to get a ladder Jim had borrowed. He noticed the blinds were drawn as well, and Tina's Mercedes parked outside, but thought nothing of it at the time. Scheiern knew Jim had a light workload that week, and thought maybe he'd left town.
Back in Indiana, Jim's family was getting nervous. His sister, Sheri Byall, says she had been calling him since Monday. She left a voicemail that morning. Tried calling him after lunch; his inbox was full. When she tried a third time early that evening, she says, his mailbox had been emptied.
Chuck Wright Jr., Jim's older brother, says he made a number of calls to his brother early that week. He tried Monday night, then Tuesday throughout the day. On Wednesday, Chuck called his father and said he couldn't get in touch with Jim. His phone's mailbox was full again. On Thursday evening, Jim's father said he called the Hays County Sheriff's Office. They patched him through to KPD.
A few minutes after 8pm, Brock Chapman, the 18-year-old son of Jim's friend Lisa, says he was driving home from work when he saw a police car in Jim's driveway. He got home and told his mother before heading back out to get a milkshake. Chapman again drove his car past Jim's house on his way home. This time, he saw more officers, and what looked to him to be a coroner. He saw Larry Simon out front; he was leaning against the tailgate of his Ford Ranger. Chapman says Simon told him he did not know what was happening and was not allowed inside to get his stuff. A police officer approached Chapman's car and told him to keep moving.
Jim's father says he called KPD at 10:30pm hoping for an update. At half past midnight, he called again. At 4:30am, while sitting in his living room with his wife Carylyn, he saw the headlights of a car make its way up his driveway. The driver was a friend, a deputy of the local sheriff. He told Jim's father to call Kyle Police, who told him his son was dead.
Miranda Hall said that she didn't start to worry about her mother's absence until that Monday night, when she realized that Tina had never called her back. On Wednesday, she drove to Tina's boyfriend Spaulding's house and left a note outside his door asking him to call her when he got home from work. Miranda says she learned through Spaulding that night that he and Tina got into a fight on Sunday night over how he didn't like it when she brought her young children to his house. Spaulding told her, Hall said, that Tina grabbed her belongings, threw them into her Mercedes, and left. Spaulding did not return multiple phone calls and texts from the Chronicle.
That Friday morning at 6am, Ryan Kidd placed a call to Miranda's boyfriend's phone. That's when Miranda learned her mother was dead.
"She Fought for Her Life"
In the aftermath of the murders, KPD remained mum on crime scene specifics, but the families gathered preliminary details from conversations with one another in the days following and at funerals. Jim was cremated (in addition to the gunshot, he had suffered post-mortem injuries), but Tina's body had a viewing. A scarf was tied around her neck to conceal knife wounds. Miranda Hall said her mother's hands were swollen; a few fingernails had been broken.
"My mom was feisty," she says. "She fought for her life."
On Aug. 2, members of Jim's family drove to Kyle from Indiana to take stock of his possessions. They spent the weekend at the house. Jim's parents stayed in one guest room, his niece slept on a couch, and Chuck Jr. lay out a box spring and mattress by the front door for himself.
"They'd already gone in and knocked the walls out of the bedroom," he remembered. "The front wall was completely torn off – drywall down to the stud. The floor through the whole house was torn out. Where my brother was laying at, there was a 4-by-8 sheet of plywood laying there. They took everything in his bedroom, wrapped it up into bags, and deemed it hazardous. They threw everything in his room away."
Chuck also alleged that a number of Jim's personal items were unaccounted for. In addition to Jim's phone, which has not been found, Chuck says that KPD has been unable to find one of Jim's guns. (Jim owned "at least six" firearms, according to Tim Eggert.) KPD declined to comment on any specifics concerning the crime scene.
Jim's family spoke individually with police and answered questions as best they could. Miranda Hall had driven down from DFW that same August weekend to collect her mother's car and belongings. She briefly conversed with Jim's family outside the house just as the Wrights prepared to leave.
By mid-August when a summary incident report was made public, police had identified Kidd and Simon as initial suspects. Both families said that they have not been made aware of the summary document. KPD declined request for comment from the Chronicle concerning the status of either suspect.
"Too Much of a Coincidence"
Jim's friends around Kyle often wonder where Simon spent his time immediately after the murders. He'd been living at Jim's place for weeks, they said, yet left no evidence or implication that he'd returned to the house at any point between Monday and Thursday night when police showed up. Simon has since been seen sparingly around Kyle. He also disconnected his listed phone number. After the Chronicle used Facebook to try to reach him, he deleted his account.
Since the murders, Simon has been arrested three times: twice in Hays County and once in Travis. On Oct. 18, 2015, he was picked up for a DWI and spent 10 days in Hays County Jail. On Nov. 19, he was arrested and sent to Travis County Jail for 15 days after trying to steal clothing and two watches from a JCPenney. (Simon pleaded no contest to the charges.) On Jan. 5, he was picked up on a warrant and spent 20 more days in Hays County. A probable cause affidavit related to the arrest indicates that he's been charged with assault causing bodily injury, a Class A misdemeanor.
Simon currently awaits trial on those charges in Hays County. Back in Kyle, those who know him doubt his direct involvement in Jim and Tina's murders.
"It's not like Larry to use a gun," speculated one individual who wished to remain anonymous. "He was a very physically powerful individual. He was temperamental. If he were the person who would have perpetrated the crime, he probably would have beaten and stabbed them to death."
Meanwhile Kidd, Miranda Hall reports, provided an alibi that checked out with KPD. However, after learning of the acrimonious nature of Kidd's and Tina's divorce, Jim's friends and members of both families still believe Kidd was involved. Even if he didn't do it, they each separately speculate, perhaps he knows who did.
"It's just too much of a coincidence," said one friend, noting Jim's Sunday mention of Tina's hesitation in visiting Kyle. "Just the fact that she came down here."
Many divorces are messy, but there's something particularly unsettling about the end of Kidd's and Tina's marriage. There was the incident in which she was left in Indiana, as well as the times when Tina texted Miranda to say she felt she was being followed. In late May she thought her phone was being used remotely by someone else. She texted Miranda: "There were messages to people that I did not write." Many of those in Tina's family believe that Kidd figured out how to track her whereabouts through her iPhone.
Selina McManus, who works at the Family Law Firm of Donna J. Smiedt, which represented Tina in her divorce, told the Chronicle that the office called KPD to offer Kidd as a potential suspect as soon as it learned of Tina's death. McManus called Kidd "vindictive" and accused him of fabricating evidence during custody hearings. She says he's "one of the worst people we've ever dealt with."
Kidd has been cagey with Miranda and her friends since Tina's death. He bought a house in Alvarado, Texas, on Aug. 11. On Sept. 30, he sold the one in Burleson to RAM Equities Group, a "residential redevelopment company" that markets its ability to purchase "problem properties." Earlier that month, Hall says, he delivered Tina's death certificate to Chase bank and withdrew her remaining balance. He's since remarried – to a woman who is not Crary – and changed his phone number. The public portion of his Facebook profile shows no updates between July 2012 and Nov. 2015.
Hall's friends have seen Kidd recently: in November at a Chick-fil-A and around Christmas at the mall's ice rink. In late January, when Miranda Hall was at the mall to see a movie with her daughter, she stopped by the ice rink and saw Kidd skating with his stepdaughter. In early February, a close friend of Hall's said she saw Kidd with his new family at the restaurant where she works. She stopped by their table, and tried to say hello to Makane and Mayleigh. She said Kidd acted as if they'd never met. Hall says Kidd has not let her visit at any point with her two half-siblings.
Kidd sounded anxious and off-guard when reached by the Chronicle in late January on his new number.
Austin Chronicle: I'm calling about the death of your ex-wife. Is that something you can talk about?
AC: Is there an attorney who can talk about it?
RK: That's, uh – not sure what you're looking for here. I don't feel comfortable. I'm going to have to let you go.
Kriste Upton still carries a sense of guilt for bringing Jim and Tina together.
"This has been a nightmare," she said in late November. "Life changing, a little. Jim and Tina were two of the most kind-hearted [people]. We all have ghosts in our closet, but they were just two really kind people."
She remains friends with Jim's family and still communicates with members of Tina's family, trying to pick up pieces of information about the case as best she can. KPD remains out of touch with the Wright family, Jim's father reports, and only occasionally does Miranda get phone calls from the investigating detective or Chief Barnett. In early February, she called the Chronicle confounded about how Barnett seemed surprised to hear her mention Crary's name.
"When the Police Chief doesn't know the name of the woman one of your suspects was with after his divorce from someone who's been murdered, that's a problem," insisted Miranda's father, Randy, in a conversation later that evening.
Jim's friends and family occasionally speak via telephone with Miranda; his friends and family back home in Indiana communicate regularly with the friends he made in Texas. They all wonder: Who would have the heart to kill a stranger? If someone wanted to murder Jim, why wait until Tina's Mercedes sat in his driveway? And if it was Tina who had been targeted, why did Jim have to get caught in the crosshairs?
Two people who barely knew each other spent more time together dead than alive. Eight months later, those closest to them still have no clue what happened that day in Kyle.

Personally, I think it’s a great fit for anyone who has dreamed of starting their own business, but isn’t necessarily keen on learning about (or acquiring) the usual nitty-gritty bits, like distribution, marketing campaigns, hiring employees, etc. With the Network Marketing model, you are a “recommender” of products for the company you join. And the company itself deals with all of the usual business management stuff for you!
Check out this short video clip (1:27) which shares one of the things I, too, LOVE about the Network Marketing profession!

Cape Town narrowly avoided “Day Zero,” but that doesn’t mean the city is resilient to future water shortages.
Cape Town residents queue to fill containers from a spring water source on Feb. 2, 2018.
For more than a decade, Cape Town has leveled demand, reduced leaks and implemented pressure management and water restrictions. This made Cape Town’s water system highly efficient and therefore less resilient because there were fewer reserves to draw from in times of unusual scarcity.

A healing visit to America’s public lands reveals their history – and their continued importance.
As I slouched against the trunk of an old juniper tree in the heat of the afternoon, I thought of that Seinfeld episode when George Costanza announces his idea for Jerry’s new sitcom. “It’s about nothing,” he says. I was a few yards off the Continental Divide Trail in northwestern New Mexico, and that was not nothing. But I was pretty sure that for most people, my 10-day escape would appear a bit, well, lacking.
Fine, I thought, but I’m also going to take the Teddy Roosevelt cure.
Teddy Roosevelt, known as our first conservation president and a robust outdoorsman, was sickly as a child. As a young man, he traveled west from his home in New York to build his strength and recover from the tragic same-day deaths of his wife and mother. In the Dakota Territories, he felt rejuvenated and fed his deep love of the outdoors with riding, roping and living in the wilderness. Later he reportedly claimed he never would have become president if he hadn’t gone West.
Like Roosevelt I was a health refugee from the East. Over several years my body had quietly developed a sensitivity to mold in a home built in a perpetually humid environment and then damaged by a major plumbing leak. Late one summer those once-silent symptoms emerged with a bang. It took months to diagnose the problem, even longer to remediate and sell the house, and longer still to find a safe place to live. My sensitivity appeared to be genetic, dormant until triggered by an extreme event. Apparently, my doctors told me, it even made me susceptible to chronic Lyme as well.
That news was enough for me — I was outta there. Lyme disease had exploded in the Mid-Atlantic over the previous decade, spreading from its initial stronghold in New England and New York down to the forests (and lawns) of Virginia and West Virginia. I’d known too many people with Lyme and heard the horror stories of chronic cases. Virtually free from that threat in New Mexico, it was a relief to be able to hike again with little fear of infectious, nearly invisible ticks secretly burrowing their way into my skin. Rattlesnakes I could deal with, I decided; at least I’d know when they bit me.
My ongoing struggle had left people worrying about me. “How are you even awake?” my sister had asked me the week before when I shared my lab results with her over the phone. Like me she suffers from thyroid problems, and my numbers were off the charts, a likely complication of my mold woes. “I am pretty exhausted,” I had to admit. The months of constant packing, moving, working and medical appointments had caught up with me. So what would she think if she knew that instead of napping for a few weeks, I went camping and hiking instead?
Each day on my trip I would hike in the morning to avoid the unrelenting heat and sun of June afternoons in the high desert. I rested and read in the afternoons. Gradually, my energy improved, my symptoms declined, and even my back pain — earned through long days propped at the computer on harsh dining-room chairs — magically dissolved. I was alone most of the time, with joy, relief and luxurious lethargy intermingling as I reveled in the wild isolation. I encountered almost no one else on the trails, and the modest campground where I planted my tent remained underused, housing a small, transient community of (mostly) quiet campers.
Despite the soothing calm of my trip, I couldn’t fully leave the rancor of America’s divided politics behind. As I hiked and camped on federal lands — at two national monuments, a designated wilderness area, and a national conservation area — I knew what was going on back in Washington. The secretary of the Interior was slashing his own department’s budget and reevaluating the designation of more than two dozen national monuments across the country.
This felt so contrary to the intentions of that past president who had traveled to the West more than a century earlier. After those life-defining experiences, Teddy Roosevelt established the first national monuments soon after Congress passed the Antiquities Act of 1906; the law that gave presidents the power to protect sites of historic, prehistoric or scientific interest. In fact, I was camping in one of Roosevelt’s first designated sites — El Morro — marveling at the ancient ruins at the top of the mesa, pondering the petroglyphs etched in stone at the base of the cliff, and deciphering the signatures of Spanish explorers and American pioneers who passed by centuries later.
Over time national monuments have proven to be popular with Americans, and studies show that they help drive local economies. Now the Trump administration was claiming that past presidents had locked up lands and failed to consult properly with the public. Progressives believe that mining and drilling interests are behind the review, and that ideological conservatives want to open up more public land for oil and gas drilling. Although El Morro wasn’t on the administration’s hit list, I couldn’t help feeling angry. The breathtaking landscape around me suggested a compatible mosaic of public, private and tribal lands supporting conservation, tourism, ranching, housing and small businesses. What exactly was the problem? And could the stroke of a pen preclude future escapes elsewhere?
“Just like old times,” my husband commented when he visited one weekend night, leaving his work in the city behind. He studied me intently as I relaxed in a canvas camp chair, my dusty legs crossed lazily in front of me. He was referring to our graduate school days. Back then we’d rent a cheap house or apartment for the summer and spend much of our time in the searing plateaus of central Wyoming while he mapped rocks for a geology thesis. Now we were back in a similar situation: We’d given away most of our belongings to rid ourselves of any lingering mold spores, and we were living temporarily in a furnished apartment in Albuquerque while we sorted out a more permanent home.
For the moment, the difficult years slipped away and the world consisted of just us, stripped down to our most basic needs in a landscape that had sealed us as a couple so long ago.
Soon after he left, I had to face my own return to civilization. I hated the thought of leaving the peace and safety of the desert for the uncertainty of modern life again. The doctor’s primary prescription for my recovery was to avoid contact with any water-damaged building so that my hyped-up immune system could calm down. That was proving unreasonably difficult to do when surrounded by countless unfamiliar buildings. A leaky roof, a broken pipe — all hidden from view — could set me off again.
Hence the nothingness of my vacation, an escape from the invisible detritus of the built environment to the vast emptiness of wild places. Roosevelt’s escape to the West set the stage for his presidency, which allowed generations of Americans like me to find relief on our public lands. I was grateful for his foresight, and for our common experience. Like him, from the nothingness of wildness, I hoped to recover everything.

The hearing by the U.S. House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform was held to evaluate the federal government’s response to the 2017 hurricane season, including lessons learned and opportunities to improve the federal natural disaster response.
Lynn R. Goldman, the Michael and Lori Milken Dean of the Milken Institute School of Public Health (Milken Institute SPH) at the George Washington University, testified November 29 on Capitol Hill about the findings of a recent study conducted by Milken Institute SPH researchers to estimate the excess mortality in Puerto Rico after Hurricane Maria. The hearing by the U.S. House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform was held to evaluate the federal government’s response to the 2017 hurricane season, including lessons learned and opportunities to improve the federal natural disaster response.
Dean Goldman told members of Congress and those attending the hearing that the study estimated there were 2,975 lives lost in Puerto Rico after Hurricane Marie—with the poor and the elderly being hardest hit.
The independent report published by a team of Milken Institute SPH researchers, including Dean Goldman, included a set of recommendations aimed at helping Puerto Rico and other vulnerable coastal areas worldwide prepare for extreme weather like Hurricane Maria.

I fear that I may be responsible for the miserable connection problems with my Titan.
A few weeks ago, my phone was stable, and I could always obtain a great signal. Now, however, at least 75% of the time, AT&T Navigator does not work. The HTC weather Hub ap does not load properly, (the update keeps spinning when attempting to settle on current conditions), and the HTC Maps does not report my location. Of perhaps greater concern is that my Internet browser reports failure to connect. A reboot of the phone solves the problem, but I do not like having to do this each day. I have tried popping the battery and also rebooting by holding down the power button until the vibration occurs.
The phone consistently shows a strong signal of at least 3-4 bars. The described problem happens regardless of my location.
Around the same time of a few weeks ago, I was experimenting with OneNote. I entered a note, but then decided to delete it. I had difficulty doing this, but eventually I deleted the note. I think I went into the Settings of the phone. Also, for whatever reason, I synched the program with SkyDrive. Now, when I go into Office, there is a message that reads "Gary'sSkyDrive."
Perhaps it is just a coincidence that my problems began after I messed about with OneNote and SkyDrive, but could the two be related? If so, is there a way to disable SkyDrive? Can someone offer another suggestion?
I am at my wit's end about this.
I should have mentioned that none of the connection problems happen when I am using WiFi. Actually, the speed is excellent.
I'm having data issues as well. Wifi works fine, IE fails to load pages, games don't update etc. I'm really not interested in resetting my phone, does anyone have a fix for this?
I had same issues in that I could not upload anything to my Skydrive using Att data. Called them and tech support said that there is a sim card issue. Went to the local att store, new sim card, and all is well. My problems started after I had to do a factory reset.
Although I am disappointed that others are having problems, I was pleased to note that my post has now attracted some comments.
My problems have escalated. As of this morning, I cannot establish a location fix for Bing Maps. AT&T Navigator also cannot obtain a fix. The HTC hub, in particular the weather ap and the Local Scout, cannot confirm my location. This is true regardless of whether I use WiFi.
I do not think my problem is related to the sim card because the current one is new, but I will swap it out.
By the way, the only third party app that I have installed is Adobe Reader.
I also have no desire to do a factory reset, but that may be unavoidable.
So How hard was it to get to an AT&T tech who new about the problem? I have the same problem where IE will not anywhere on 4G , but if I switch it to WIFI it works just fine. I did a hard reset on Sunday and then everything started working, but now on Monday I am back in the same position, No web sites on 4G.
Some people have found that switching airplane mode on/off fixes the problem.
rsmiley0, I visited an AT&T store today and chatted with a representative who is quite well versed with Windows phones, so there are, indeed tech support reps familiar with the OS. I ended up swapping out my sim card and all was well for a time, but in the past hour, I have noted a gradual return of the problems. I am convinced that these are not due to AT&T reception issues.
Figure 8 Dash, I forgot about that possible solution. I appreciate your reminder and will give the option a try.
Well I just finished Online chat with tech support. They did a Reset of my SIM card and then the problem went away. The tech said it was something in my cache or Cookies that caused it, but when I reminded him that things worked fine on WIFI that then stumped him. Least it is all on my phone ticket. I already did the Master Reset on Sunday and I dont want to have to do that again for them. BTW - my app count was 229! Thanks Re-Installer!
Strange that this is starting to happen to everyone.
rsmiley0, I had turned off my phone a short while ago. I just turned it back on and all was well. However, experience over the past two weeks tells me that the issue comes and goes, with this morning bringing the worst times. Perhaps I am being too pessimistic, but I do not believe that swapping out the sim card has solved my problems. As for you, I hope that resetting the SIM has chased your issues away.
Well my 4G is down again this morning. This time the SIM reset did not work. Going to the AT&T store I guess.
I really dont want to master reset again.
I've had these data issues again, after not having them for quite some time. Airplane mode (on and off) does seem to fix it. I think it's in the OS and if AT&T would ever give us the updates MS is creating, I think this issue would be gone.

Tree for Life is a non for profit organisation that empowers members of the community to get directly involved with restoring natural habitats.
Tree for Life trains and organises an army of volunteers to collect seed, grow native trees, plant them in their natural environment and eradicate weed.
Wildhelpers catch up with volunteer Clare to see why she is a keen Tree for Life volunteer (discover also Clare's adventure volunteering with wombats).
Note: This is NOT a tree producing native bears!
When did you start your volunteer career?
My main stream of conservation work began in the year 2001 when I became a member of Trees for Life.
Trees For Life Incorporated is a community of people working to revegetate South Australia and conserve its remnant vegetation which began 30 years ago.
I began work as a volunteer joining the Bush Action Team (BAT) group meeting up at various bush for life sites. The main goal was to identify the main weed problems and use either chemical or manual variations to contain the weed front.
I even went to a few two days working weekends and dabbled in seed propagation, but then bush for life carers were required and then I took on study.
Two day week-end at Halbury, South Australia (2009).
So what's a typical volunteer day with Trees for Life?
A typical morning for me, as a Bush for Life Carer, consists of surveying the site for any disturbances i.e. flora, fauna, chemical, litter & wood removal. This gives me an idea on the condition of the site & where the weed front is.
After this is determined, small areas are targeted and the Bradley Method is used to prevent soil disturbance and decrease chance of weed invasion.
Sometimes I am by myself, most of the time my site coordinator notifies me when she goes out for spraying or mini Bush Action Days (half BAT days).
"You don’t have to be an outside person to help with the environment"
If you volunteer for a full Bush Action Team day, it is usually a 9.30-3.30pm day.
You take your own water, hat & food.
You can meet there, Bush Action Team provides a map when you book or can organise a pick-up or mini bus if required.
A Bush Action Team officer coordinates the volunteers, provide the tools and the information required. It's very well organised: sunscreen, tools, chemicals are provided for. For weekend trips, food, transport and accommodation too!
Propagation workshops to get you started as a volunteer grower are half a day.
What do you like about Trees for Life?
help other revegetation projects by growing seedlings for land owners.
"The thing I enjoy the most is that feeling that we are actually doing something positive for the environment in the long term"
What can you do as a volunteer for Trees for Life?
You don’t have to be an outside person to help with the environment, someone has to sort the seeds and organise the week-end trips.
Is there a worst bit of volunteering for Trees for Life?
The worst bits are hard to pin down!
The weeding can be tedious especially if you have blackberry which is slow going.
Getting to the sites in a mini bus is slow going, but it gives you a chance to chat to other people.
The accommodation isn’t flash, it’s usually dormitory style bunk beds, but by the end of the day you are glad to have a bed because you will be exhausted.
The week-end trips are fantastic, but the best part for me was finding these pockets of remnant vegetation, discovering information about the property, what vegetation and wildlife is present and is probably why I enjoy doing the research into management plans.
You can get a better idea by watching this great video on volunteering with Trees for Life.
Thanks Clare for your insider's account of volunteering for Trees for Life!
And congratulation on all your hard work, I know many little creatures are thankfull for their restored habitat!

Decision made by Agriculture Minister Ariel following Israeli ambassador expulsion from Turkey and Erdoğan statements.
Agriculture Minister Uri Ariel ordered freezing import of agricultural produce from Turkey to Israel this afternoon, following the expulsion of the Israeli ambassador from Turkey and statements made by President Erdoğan.
"President Erdoğan preaches to the entire world while he funds terrorist organizations like Hamas," said the Minister.
Earlier in the day, Turkey officially declared Israel's ambassador to Ankara Eitan Naeh persona non grata and expelled him from the country.
Turkey has thus stepped up its anti-Israeli moves after last night recalling its ambassadors from Israel and the United States for consultations following IDF fire on Gaza rioters and the US Embassy Jerusalem transfer.
President Erdoğan today tweeted "Netanyahu is the PM of an apartheid state that has occupied a defenseless people's lands for 60+ yrs in violation of UN resolutions.
"He has the blood of Palestinians on his hands and can't cover up crimes by attacking Turkey.
"Want a lesson in humanity? Read the 10 commandments."

After seeing Beauty and the Beast, I knew I wanted Belle’s life—secret castle far away from everyone, talking household items fulfilling my every need, and an enormous library. Getting to kiss the prince was just a bonus! And the only way to be a princess like Belle was to dress the part.
But nothing lasts forever. Whether it was a growth spurt or my love of fruit punch, I had to give up my Belle dress for the pedestrian collection of clothes waiting in my unfortunately inanimate wardrobe. So I channeled my love for provincial French fairy tales into something more sustainable: reading. It’s likely that Disney Belle’s love of books is an homage to B&B’s original author, Gabrielle-Suzanne Bardot de Villeneuve, a noblewoman who defied social convention by earning her living from her writing. Regardless of who is telling this story, I wanted to read it. So for Princess Week, here is a list of Beauty and the Beast retellings that I have cultivated through the years. Did I miss any of your favorites? Let me know in the comments!
Far darker than the stories familiar to audiences of today from the phenomenally successful Broadway musical and the early Lon Chaney, Jr. film, Leroux's Fantom is a genuine murderer, and the story, a true Gothic murder/horror tale. Erik, the Phantom of the Opera, terrorizes the Opera Garnier (or Paris Opera House) by a successful multi-year blackmail plot. When new owners take over the Opera, Erik's reign of terror is abruptly curtailed. With this threat to his formerly comfortable living, and his budding, if bizarre relationship with the lovely soprano Christine Daee, coming to a halt, Erik takes drastic and murderous action. More complex, and far darker than the Broadway musical and film, some have criticized Leroux's novel for its deliberate Nineteenth century pace, and its talkiness. Others have found it fascinating and absorbing reading, with depths not to be found in the later, extraordinarily popular adaptations. The novel is partly inspired by historical events at the Paris Opera during the nineteenth century and an apocryphal tale concerning the use of a former ballet pupil's skeleton in Carl Maria von Weber's 1841 production of Der Freischutz."
What if Beauty became the Beast? Discover a new angle on the classic fairytale in this fantasy retelling that's perfect for anyone who can't get enough of Beauty and the Beast.
In the city of Yuan, the blind Princess Isra is raised to be a human sacrifice. Her death will ensure her city’s vitality.
In the desert, a mutant beast named Gem fights to save his people, known as the Monstrous, from starvation.
Neither dreams that, together, they can return balance to their worlds.
When Gem is captured for trying to steal Yuan’s enchanted roses, he becomes a prisoner of the city. Isra enlists his help, and soon begins to care for him—and to question everything she has been brought up to believe.

Byron Energy has identified multiple new low-risk oil and gas prospects at its South Marshall Island Block 71 project in the Gulf of Mexico.
Oil and gas junior Byron Energy (ASX: BYE) has revealed several new low-risk development opportunities and prospects at one of its offshore joint venture projects in the US Gulf of Mexico.
The company today announced it has received the final version of reverse time migration (RTM) data from a seismic reprocessing program at the South Marshall Island Block 71 (SM71), which it operates in a 50/50 joint venture with Otto Energy (ASX: OEL).
Using this data, Byron said it has already catalogued numerous prospects and leads, which it will continue to evaluate once the final reprocessing products are delivered.
Future drilling plans within the project area will be based on the overall ranking of those prospects, the company stated.
In May 2018, Byron engaged Schlumberger subsidiary WesternGeco to add additional licensed 3D seismic data to its previously licenced data inventory, as well as perform new seismic data processing over the SM71 project area.
The data covers 445sq km encompassing 22 South Marshall Island outer-continental shelf lease blocks and includes 523 wells, which have produced more than 138 million barrels of oil and 2.2 trillion cubic feet of gas.
The new, higher frequency RTM data was delivered to Byron in late December. The remaining reprocessed data from the seismic program is expected to be delivered in February.
In addition, Byron has licenced WesternGeco’s Petrel software platform in order to take full advantage of its vector imaging partitioning (VIP) and RTM processing.
“Byron has always believed in gaining every technical advantage possible and licensing the Petrel software is another example of this strategy, and although the transition to Petrel is an arduous one, Byron believes it will put us one more step ahead of other Gulf of Mexico players,” the company stated.
Byron chief executive officer Maynard Smith said the company was already seeing the benefits of this new, improved and expanded database.
“Being able to tie every well in such a highly productive area of the Gulf of Mexico with accurately processed, high quality seismic data and take advantage of VIP technology will be fundamental to the growth of Byron,” he said.
According to the company, this ability will allow the company to pursue projects based on analogue producing wells, understand dry holes and trapping styles and then focus its efforts on key stratigraphic horizons across the area.
“Interpretation of this data will be ongoing for many years and will provide the foundation for Byron’s continued strategy of using the latest technology to de-risk our portfolio of opportunities and increase our chance of success,” Mr Smith added.
Today’s news follows the company’s announcement two days ago that the SM71 facility had produced and sold its 1 millionth barrel of oil (gross) since initial production started in March 2018.
The facility has also produced more than 1.3 billion cubic feet of gas, which on a revenue basis is approximately equivalent to an additional 70,000bbls of oil.
Byron also announced that the initial capital investment for the construction of the platform, the drilling and completion of the three wells and all seismic acquisition and federal leasing expenses have now been recovered.
Mr Smith said the SM71 discovery “proves, beyond any doubt, that very good production and substantial reserves, can still be found in these old fields by applying absolute state-of-the-art geophysical data”.
“We will continue to use this strategy over structurally complex domes in the Gulf of Mexico and very much look forward to our next discovery,” he said.
Following today’s announcement, Byron shares climbed up 10.64% to reach $0.26 by close of trade.

The Tenbury United youth team are staying well insulated with their training tops, purchased with a grant from the Kingspan Insulation Community Trust.
The footballers of Tenbury United Youth Football Club are training in style thanks to new tracksuit tops and warm jackets purchased with a grant from the Kingspan Insulation Community Trust.
Established in 1879, Tenbury United is the oldest known amateur football club in Worcestershire. The historic first team is supported by a vibrant youth team structure which takes in children and adolescents from ages 7 to 17. The team coaches not only work to nurture talented boys and girls, but also to encourage all of the players to engage in, and enjoy, physical activity.
To keep the eager footballers warm over the cooler months, the club asked for, and received, £2,825 from the Kingspan Insulation Community Trust. The funds have been used to purchase professional tops for training sessions and warm jackets to insulate the young substitutes.
“Tenbury United Youth Football Club has provided local children with a safe, fun and social space for many years. Our competitive teams and training sessions offer a great opportunity for youngsters to stay physically active and learn about the importance of teamwork. The training tops give our players a real sense of pride every time they pull them on”.

This study was conducted in the dry and rainy seasons in three ecologically different zones characterized by: acid soils, saline soils and hilly terrain. Rapid Rural Appraisal (RRA) and Participatory Rural Appraisal (PRA) methods were used to identify and collect data on the use of indigenous plants as feedstuffs. The general information was obtained from key informants at hamlet, village and district levels. All non-cultivated feed plants were identified botanically and information was obtained on the habitat of the plants, parts used, relative abundance, processing methods and seasonality. The qualitative information based on farmer knowledge illustrated the importance of understanding the role of the indigenous plants in animal diets.
Samples were collected based on farmers recommendations and field observations. The plants were grouped according to season, habitat (aquatic and terrestrial) and ecological zone and the DM, CP, CF, ash, Ca and P contents were determined.
Indigenous plants play an important role in livestock diets particularly in the remote areas of the Mekong delta. Local plants supply a large proportion of the protein, vitamins and minerals to the animal. In addition, some are also used as for medicinal purposes (Mwashayenyi 1994). The plants are adapted to the temperature, moisture and soil specific conditions and grow well on waterlogged soil, and some are fast growing and harvested all year around (Buathoki 1993). People living in the rural areas, especially the low income groups, rear livestock on diets based on high quantities of indigenous plants. They have an impressive knowledge of how to use plants for animal production. Indigenous knowledge is important for many kinds of development activities. Development projects may fail because they do not take into account local traditions and knowledge (Warren 1991).
Although non-cultivated plants are used commonly by farmers, little is known of the nutritive value of many species which are very abundant in the field and homestead areas. Especially interesting are the water plants, as they constitute an important source of protein and because they reproduce rapidly, and produce high yields of protein-rich plant biomass (Culley and Epps 1973).
The present study was conducted in order to assess farmers' knowledge and to determine the composition of non-cultivated plants used in animal feeding in the Mekong Delta.
In this study, Rapid Rural Appraisal (RRA) and Participatory Rural Appraisal (PRA) methods, as described by McCracken et al (1988), Chambers (1992a,b) and ILED (1994), were applied to learn about the farmers' knowledge on indigenous plants for animals feeding. The RRA and PRA methods emphasize group discussions and diagramming and pay especial attention to outsiders' behaviour, attitudes and interactions with local people (Mc Cracken et al 1988, Chambers 1992a, b).
In Soc Trang province, Thanh Tri district, the information and samples were collected in Long Hoa hamlet belonging to Tan Long village.
The third site was selected in Angiang province in the An Nong and An Cu villages. The population distribution of An Cu and An Nong village is scattered and consists of 80% ethnic people mainly Khmers (Annual statistics 1993).
Meetings were carried out with the local authorities and female and male groups. Some case studies were conducted in certain families with more knowledge of indigenous plants used for livestock. Walking around in the area was done with key informants to different sites to find and collect samples. The samples were collected and prepared before the meetings and used as a basis for group discussions on habitat, abundance, seasonality and plant use. Some prizes were given to children who collected the highest number of different species and to the person who knew most about the indigenous plants. The collection of this material has relied very much on the extensive knowledge regarding local feed resources among local people. To learn from the community, informal and participatory approaches were used as described in the methodology section. One very useful approach was the food or feed plants identification competition that was organized for children. The children were pupils in secondary and primary schools. The contest resulted in a large display of feed plants which later on could be used for discussions on habitat, uses and abundance. It indicated considerable knowledge of local feed resources among young children. The winner, who was a fourteen year old high school student, knew 43 plants.
In field sites, in the Saline area, a plant identification meeting was held with adults, key informants and children. Comparisons were made between adults and children and between groups. The adults identified the indigenous plants better than the children as knowledge is transferred from the old to the young generation. The men knew the plants and their uses better than the women as they spend more time in the fields than the women. They eat many different plants from the fields and observe which plants the ducks or buffaloes prefer. Some plants that could not be recognized by the farmers in the hamlets were taken to the pagoda for identifcation by healers with particular knowledge of plants. Most of those plants were used as medicinal plants. Uncommon plants were identified by local names and enclosed in plastic bags for later botanical analysis at the university. In the three areas, the total number of plants identified were 132 species used as feed for livestock.
Group interviews were focussed on the uses of plants. In the Mekong delta. Wild plants have always been commonly used for many purposes including food, feed, fertilizer, medicine, fibre and Mulching.
Not only the terrestrial plants but also the aquatic weeds are important in the rural areas by providing food for humans. The foliage of some water plant species are eaten raw in salads or cooked as a vegetable. The rhizomes of Eleocharis dulcis are eaten commonly by farmers in the Saline area. When the plant density becomes too high, farmers often transplant them to empty land near the house.
Women in Phuong Binh and Long Hoa would say “Plants for livestock are free, if not we would be lost”. Many plants are used as livestock feed for pigs, ducks, buffaloes and chickens. Duck production is a tradition, especially in the acid Plain of Reeds and in the Saline area. When raising ducks in the fields with acid soils, the farmers observe the feathers of the ducks. If they become reddish-yellow in colour in combination with a depressed growth or egg production, the farmers consider the ducks to be contaminated by the acidic water. Then, it is necessary to detoxify the ducks in order for them to recover productivity. Ducks are given sodium bicarbonate and also some plants with a laxative function. Some acidic laxatives from plants such as mung bean seeds boiled with sugar or water spinach, Ceratopteris thalictroides or extract from Cassia alata are used in the drinking water for the ducks.
Sometimes, farmers use Phragmites karka tops, Morinda citrifolia and Jussiaea erecta boiled slowly and given to the ducks in the morning when they are thirsty.
Aquatic plants have the advantage of extremely high growth rate (Penfound and Early 1984, cited by Joce 1990). Most aquatic plants, including water hyacinth and Hydrilla, have high nutritive values similar to high quality forage (Easely and Shirley 1974). However, ash contents are very high, between 33–42%. This was mentioned by Ravindran and Blair (1992), who stated that a common characteristic of water plants is high water and ash content.
Lemna spp are used very commonly as fish and animal feeds in traditional practices. Lemna is low in fibre (12.1% in DM) but high in protein (33.4% in DM). However, dry matter is very low (3.8%) and ash content (24.5% in DM) high, probably as a result of a low level of nutrients in the water. Water spinach is planted commonly and is a favoured vegetable for human consumption. It is also commonly used for traditional feeding of pigs, ducks, chickens and fish.
Commelina and Ludwigia species are also used commonly as food, feed and medicinal herbs. They are liked by pigs and ducks. The crude protein content is between 16–23% in dry matter. Hydrophyla erecta and H. salicifolia are very palatable for pigs, but they only grow in the wet season. Farmers usually give them to pigs as green forage and especially as the main feed in the period of feed scarcity.
Many other species that were found that are interesting for animal feeding because of their palatability. Alternanthera sessilis, Ludwigia adscendens, L. octovalvis, Commelina spp, especially, A. repens are very common in pig feeding. They can be used as fresh forage or cooked. They withstand some drought and also grazing. In the wet season, the crude protein content of A. repens is high (22.6%), but the fibre content is also rather high.
Farmer knowledge on the use of non-cultivated plants for livestock is very extensive and many plants are used in the Mekong delta for many purposes. The knowledge is transferred from the old to the young generation. The wild plants are very abundant and available all year around, especially in the acid sulphate soil area. Water plants are used commonly in the community not only for animals but also for human consumption. Many of the non-cultivated plants are very high in protein content and have potential as feeds for animals. Using the aquatic plants for animal feeding may be a weed control solution in the intensive rice production areas not only in Vietnam but in other tropical countries.
The use of non-cultivated plants for pigs and poultry is traditional, however, information on nutritive value, anti-nutritional factors and optimal levels to use in animals diets is still limited in the region.

After years of planning, and testing phases over the last few months, Uber this month will begin allowing customers in Pittsburgh to summon self-driving cars from within its ride-hailing app. As noted by Bloomberg, "no automotive or technology company has yet achieved" the public launch of a self-driving service, passing rivals Google, Tesla, and Ford, who have so far only performed tests in the field.
Uber's new program isn't entirely "driverless," however, since the company is still placing trained engineers in the driver's seat, "as common sense and the law dictate," to oversee each trip and ensure the passenger's safety. There will also be a co-pilot in the front passenger seat to take notes while the test trips take place, and everything will get recorded by cameras inside and outside the vehicle "so that any glitches can be ironed out."
On the passenger side of things, once users hail the specially modified Volvo XC90 sport-utility vehicles, they'll see a tablet computer in the backseat that comes stacked with information to tell them that they're in an autonomous vehicle and educate them on exactly what's happening. Although unspecified, it appears that riders won't know they're being paired with a driverless car while in the Uber app, but the ride will be free of charge "for the time being."
According to Uber's engineering director Raffi Krikorian, "the goal is to wean us off of having drivers in the car, so we don’t want the public talking to our safety drivers." The company also thinks the new technology could greatly cut down on the cost of trips for riders, which it sees as a major opportunity. Still, there are hiccups in the system the company has to fix before all of this progress can happen.
Apple itself was the source of multiple self-driving automobile rumors, beginning last year, but ultimately it's believed that the company's first foray into the vehicle industry most likely won't be autonomous, with further generations down the line more likely to include the technology. All the same, over the summer it was reported that Apple is taking a "two-prong approach" to the Apple Car, focusing more heavily on creating its own autonomous driving system rather than the hardware manufacturing of the vehicle itself.
You can read Bloomberg's full report on Uber's autonomous vehicle launch in Pittsburgh right here.
Want a new iPhone? Send your car to the Apple Store and they will drop it off in the car. On the way home, bring back pizza for the family. Oh, we needed more toilet paper, I'll make sure to send the car to Costco on the way back to pick some up. No delivery fees, no waiting = endless possibilities.
I live in California and my best friend lives in Utah. Sleep in my car bed and wake up in Utah.
As someone who has four elderly parents who have turned my husband and me into their personal Uber service as they refuse to use cabs or uber, I would say self driving cars could help extend the independence of the elderly or disabled or those with other restrictions on their driving or people who just hate driving. I get lost just going to the basement when my migraines act up so I would love a self driving car someday even with my abilities intact.
The constant push for automation is great to a point. Having a fleet of driverless cars that pick people up and drop them off seems like a cool idea. Aside from the actual driving part, these cars will need to be calibrated and maintained to make sure no accidents occur which likely means they will be in better shape than a lot of taxis and cars I get into today. The problem of automation however is a social problem. As we have the internet, the video games, self check out and now driverless cars (to mention but a few obvious ones), we end up with two major social issues. First is the loss of human contact. We spend much less time with others than ever before and that has an impact on culture. The second is the jobs being replaced by automation are the lower income, lower skilled jobs. This creates a huge problem in terms of poverty and inequities that is already stirring up a lot of anxiety and is clearly visible in this election year. As someone that works in technology, I am certainly not against it and totally look forward to being able to hail a driverless car (never Uber, but maybe Lyft or a taxi). I just hope we can address the social issues along the way, because from my perspective technology is way out and the social considerations are being left in the dust.
I share your anxiety about the job loss but as a woman I welcome any technological advances that limit my interactions with people I don't know, especially men I don't know. Especially if it means I don't have to get into a car with them.
You'll get it once you see someone in a major accident.
Then you'll realize that every day there's 100 preventable deaths and thousands of preventable major injuries in the world caused by human error in cars.
The sooner autonomous cars are deployed, the sooner lives are saved.
Then there's also the massive boost in productivity and reduction of stress when humans no longer have to deal with traffic themselves and can instead have their car do it for them.
Just a week ago I watched a stranger die in an SUV because a semi changed lanes without looking or signaling. If the semi was autonomous, it wouldn't have changed lanes. If the SUV had been autonomous, it would have seen the semi abruptly moving towards it and could have swerved out of the way.
A month ago, the bridesmaid from my wedding ended up in the ICU because she crossed a four way and a drunk driver in a pickup T-boned into her SUV at 90 miles an hour. If either vehicle was autonomous, the crash could have been avoided. Instead, her pelvis is shattered. She's fortunate. She'll heal and regain the ability to walk again next year.
Three years ago, I rear ended someone. They got whiplash and have to visit the doctor's for reoccurring migraines now.
Lives are impacted for the worse all the freaking time by these tiny mistakes that people make in vehicles. They're tiny mistakes made in a matter of milliseconds that impact people for months or years or forever. They can't be undone afterwards, but they can be prevented with autonomous driving.
So Uber's goal is to put their drivers out of business???
I have a friend that is legally blind and loosing what eyesight is left very quickly that is very excited about self driving cars.
Yes totally agree that physical safety is another potential win (once they make sure the cars don't crash and can't be hacked of course). I just wish we could update our policies at the corporate and government level to also address the social issues while continuing to push the technology further. It's not about going back to horse and buggy (although that can be fun on occasion). It's about pushing technology in a responsible way so people are not left behind. Just because I am (and suspect many here are as well) in the "have" camp, does not mean I should ignore those in the "have-not" camp.
That's even more bold and ambitious that the report out the other day regarding Ford's goals toward a fully autonomous car. I wonder what Über's insurance liability premiums are going to be like with this venture, carrying around passengers as a business in a self-driving car.
Automation is great. It used to take a skilled housewife a whole day or more of hard work to do the family's laundry. Now it's so easy even a man can do it, and most of it is waiting for the machines to do the work, so the guy can sit on the couch eating bon bons and watching his "stories."

Only players from the following list may be drafted.
International players who may not join the NBA for some years, such as Dario Saric, will also not play for a team here at D5 until they actually play in the NBA.
I see that Cameron Bairstow repping Australia in there.
Just a note: The Toronto Raptors 1st Round Selection, Bruno Cabolco, is NOT on this list of available rookies to draft.
That needs to be fixed so I can take Caboclo with the 7th pick.
So I can't take DeAndre Kane or Melvin Ejim since they weren't drafted? I'll have to wait for them to be signed and play IRL and then added in here I presume?
I liked the rule we had where you can pick an undrafted rookie but if they never actually play or get signed then your pick is just voided.
Especially in this draft since there are a ton of quality guys who weren't picked.

In medicine, the risk factors for developing a heart attack fall into two main categories: those you can control and those you can’t.
Unfortunately, the risk of a heart attack increases in men, post-menopausal women, with increasing age and if there is any family history of heart disease. Those are factors out of your control, but this doesn’t mean that you can’t take steps drastically decreases the chances of ever having a heart attack.
This leads to the category of modifiable risk factors, those which you can keep under control if you make the smart decision to do so: smoking, high blood pressure, increased blood lipids (triglycerides and LDL cholesterol) and poorly controlled diabetes. Anything that causes plaque formation in the arteries, such as high blood glucose or cigarette smoke, ultimately leads to vessel narrowing, which means that the heart will lack sufficient blood supply, ultimately leading to the symptoms of a heart attack.

Second in a series. Public domain offering. I made this in Photoshop and Windows Movie Maker. Here are 8.2 seconds of stock footage, lightning. Slowed down version of the previous offering. Some extra colors added. This is not real, I used Xenofex filters to create it. But it might be fun for special effects in a video. And you can use it with no worries about copyright infringement. It's free for everyone's use. Creating these little clips is my way of thanking others who have contributed to the public domain. Sorry, but Windows Movie Maker file is all I have to create it in. Please enjoy its use and leave a review if you use it in a video. If interest is strong enough I will continue to create these little files.
Thank you Ivan. I am just winging it right now and wanted to put someting up people might be able to use. I didn't add any sound so people could add their own. I think I will get better at making clips as time goes by. I appreciate your comment.
Subject: A very nice stock footage clip!!!
This is a nice stock footage lighting clip. It is silent! Good quality and a nice file size. Worth an addition to any stock footage collection. NOTE TO MR LEE: I feel this belongs in the Stock Footage section of the Internet Archive. If this interests you, please contact me at Ivantoy2@msn.com for more information, or leave a note in the Stock Footage Forum in the Archive and I will respond....Yours Truly, Ivan Bridgewater.

This project was first announced just ahead of harvest 2016. The intent of the announcement was just to give producers an opportunity to practice and/or focus a little more attention on their rosé wine heading into 2017. I listed, as an example, some potential parameters we may look at as a means of unifying the wine style, and strengthening the brand.
The 2nd part is where you all come in. We’re going to create an opportunity for group blind evaluations of several rosé wines. In January and early February, I will hold 3 sensory training/evaluation workshops. These workshops will be open to grape and wine producers, retailers, distributors, food professionals, and other advocates for our industry. We’ll have a lot of work to do, and they’ll run at least 4 hrs, probably scheduled from 1-5. Because of this, and because our budget is limited, there will be a cost to participants to cover venue and food costs associated with the event.
November 2016 Roundtable meetings, collection of wines for analysis – done!
April 2017 Create competition category for Illinois Rosé, include parameters established by 1st sensory workshop.
March 2018 Launch marketing campaign to public, begin assessing wines from 2017 harvest?
You must RSVP to attend this event. Send RSVPs to brad@illinoiswine.com. The suggested donation will be $10/person (at the door).
That’s all for now. Best to all of you this holiday season!

Do you have an aspiring princess in your house? Before you start worrying if the royal family has any eligible princes of the right age, satisfy an obsession by checking out some princess books. Over the next few weeks I’ll be reviewing royalty and letting you know which princesses are worthy of their titles.
In The Two Princesses of Bamarre, when Princess Meryl falls ill with the always fatal Grey Death, there is no need for a prince to come to her rescue. Her sister, Princess Addie, is determined to overcome her fears in order to save the day. Equipped with her sister’s sword, her long deceased mother’s seven-league boots and a magic tablecloth from her crush – a sorcerer – Addie heads out to face dragons, gryphons, ogres and spectres in hopes of finding a cure.
Although this book lists itself as for ages 8-12, I can’t see any reason why it wouldn’t appeal to teens as well. The vocabulary is varied, there’s a sweet little side plot love story, the main character is a teen herself so there really is no need for an upper limit. I would consider it very challenging for a third grader, probably best for an advanced fourth grader or a fifth grader.
Great for: Anyone who’s looking for a strong female lead. The girls are definitely able to hold their own in this one. Awesome princess book does not need to be a contradiction in terms.
This is also a probable hit with fans of Gail Carson Levine. While certainly a bit more bloody than her Nobel Honor book, Ella Enchanted it shares a similar sense of adventure and fun.
Death, Violence and Gore – Oh my. To start off, as is befitting a fairy tale, the mother is long dead. The main premise of the book is that a cure must be found for the Grey Death, a plague that is “slaughtering hundreds” in the kingdom of Bamarre. Bamarre is evidently in a rough state, as it also is under siege by the following: dragons, gryphons, ogres, spectres. Long before our story began there was a hero called Drualt who fought and vanquished many of these evil-doers. A book has been written to pay tribute. In this book (which is oft-quoted) there are all kinds of gory bits – gryphons feasting on living flesh, knights bones gnawed white, maiden’s bones charred black. There is also a certain amount of death to dragons, gryphons, and ogres as Addie undertakes her quest. It is not a bloodless situation and in a dragon’s cave she also comes upon the remains of those who preceded her. Whether all of this amounts to “EW, GROSS” or nightmares will vary from child to child.
Drugs, Alcohol and Smoking – Not unless you count smoke from a dragon!
Frightening or Intense Things – The goriest bits, the parts out of the story of Drualt are not particularly scary as they don’t relate to characters that we are invested in. There is a certain amount of tension built as Meryl becomes more ill and Addie’s time is running out. HUGE SPOILER ALERT: Meryl dies. She’s turned into a fairy, so her life continues in a different way, but for some this may be upsetting.
This entry was posted in Middle Grades, Teen, Tween and tagged 10+, fantasy, Levine, princess. Bookmark the permalink.
I read a lot of kids’ books for my own pleasure, and I had some trouble getting into this one, in spite of being a Gail Carson Levine fan. I think that Addie’s fears seemed a little overplayed to me at the beginning, which I don’t think would be a problem for age-appropriate readers.
But if you’re doing princesses, oh, do Princess Academy! One of my absolute favorites. I love stories where being a princess is associated with things like trade agreements and sorting out feuds between your shepherds and farmers.
Princess Academy is definitely on the list, although it probably won’t be until next week.
I really loved Two Princesses of Bamarre the first time I read it, maybe because I’m a super wimp like Addie. In the re-read, I wasn’t quite so enamored, although I still think I like it better than Ever for young readers, but maybe not quite as much as Ella Enchanted or Fairest.
A great book! One of my favorites. Has changed my entire view of fairy tales! I recommend this one and Ever, also by this author.

OTA640G was delivered as Southern National's 2380 during Mar 1969.

The town was founded in 25 B.C. Named Augusta Emerita by Octavius Augustus, it was a retirement place for Roman army soldiers from two veteran legions of the Cantabrian Wars: Legio V Alaudae and Legio X Gemina. These legions were situated under condition of upgrading the ancient inhabitants to the category of Roman citizens. The city was the capital of the Roman province of Lusitania. “Emeritus” stands for “retired” in Latin and it referred to the soldiers retired with honor. Its citizens were ascribed to the Papiria tribe.
Thus begins a period of great splendour whose proof we can witness in its magnificent buildings: the theatre, the amphitheatre, the circus, temples, bridges and aqueducts.
For centuries and until the fall of Western Roman Empire, it was a major merida legal, economic, military and cultural center, and one of the most prosperous towns in the Roman era, categorized ninth among the most prominent of the Empire (even ahead of Athens) by Ausonious. In the third century it became the capital of the diocese Hispaniarum.
The Roman theater in Merida is a construction promoted by consul Marco Vipsanio Agrippa in the Roman town of Augusta Emerita, current Mérida (Spain). Thanks to a date inscribed in the very theater we know that it was built in the years 15 to 16 BC. The theater has undergone several renovations, the most important one in between late first century and early second century, possibly during the reign of Emperor Trajan. The currnte front façade or scene was raised. Another renovation was held in time of Constantine (between 330 and 340 AD), with new-decorative architectural elements and a walkway around the monument. Following the abandonment led by Christianity because of the immorality of the theater, it is abandoned and covered with earth, leaving visible only the upper tiers of seats (summa cavea). Popular imagination called it “las Siete Sillas” (the seven chairs), where tradition says several Moorish kings sat to decide the city’s fate.
Theater located at the archaeological site of Merida, one of the largest archaeological sites in Spain. It was declared World Heritage by UNESCO in 1993. The theater was located within the Roman city in a peripheral location, next to the walls, part of the tiers leaning on St Albin hill.
The amphitheater is part of the archaeological site of Merida, one of the largest and most extensive archaeological sites in Spain. It was declared World Heritage by UNESCO in 1993.
The Roman Anphitheater was built in Mérida. The town was founded in 25 B.C. named Augusta Emerita by Octavius Augustus, it was a retirement place for Roman army soldiers from two veteran legions of the Cantabrian Wars: Legio V Alaudae and Legio X Gemina. These legions were situated under condition of upgrading the ancient inhabitants to the category of Roman citizens. The city was the capital of the Roman province of Lusitania. “Emeritus” stands for “retired” in Latin and it referred to the soldiers retired with honor.
The Roman Circus was built in Mérida that was founded in 25 B.C. named Augusta Emerita by Octavius Augustus, it was a retirement place for Roman army soldiers from two veteran legions of the Cantabrian Wars: Legio V Alaudae and Legio X Gemina. These legions were situated under condition of upgrading the ancient inhabitants to the category of Roman citizens. The city was the capital of the Roman province of Lusitania. “Emeritus” stands for “retired” in Latin and it referred to the soldiers retired with honor.
Its construction was begun in the early years of the first century (year 20 AD), during the time of Tiberius. Along with the amphitheater of Merida, it was the largest of the entertainment buildings of shows in the city.
Roman Circus located at the archaeological site of Merida, one of the largest archaeological sites in Spain. It was declared World Heritage by UNESCO in 1993.
It can somehow be considered as the city origin, as well as it marks the path as to be the extension of one of the main streets of the colony: the Decumanus Maximus.
The situation of the bridge is carefully selected at a ford of river Guadiana offering a central island that divides it into two channels. The original structure did not provide the continuity of the present, as it was composed by two sections of arches joined in the island. In Roman times its length was extended several times, adding at least five portions of consecutive arcs so that the road did not close during the periodic flooding of the Guadiana. That has caused this work to reach 792 m long, one of the largest bridges remaining from that time.
The aqueduct of los Milagros (miracles) made part the pipe that brought water from the Proserpina reservoir, located 5 km from the city. It dates from the beginning of I c. DC. Its archery is now fairly well preserved, especially the section that spans the river valley Albarregas.
It is commonly known by this name, because it seems miraculous that it remains standing.
The Aqueduct of Rabo de Buey – San Lázaro (Oxtail – San Lazaro) carried water water from streams and underground springs located north of the city.
The underground driving is well preserved unlike the archery built to save valley Albarregas. Only three pillars and their arches next the Roman circus monument and other sixteenth-century aqueduct still remain. Its materials were used to build another aqueduct in XVI century.
This building used to belong to the municipal forum of the city. It is one of the few religious buildings that remains in satisfactory condition. Despite wrongly assigned name in its discovery, the building was dedicated to imperial cult. It was built in the late first century BC or early AD, in the Augustan age.
The building is rectangular, surrounded by columns. Its facade was facing the forum and was formed by a set of six columns ending in a gable. The current preservation of the building is due to having been incorporated into the Count of Corbos Renaissance palace, whose remains can still be seen in the hall inside the temple. Granitic materials were mainly used in its construction..
Believed to be the likely entrance arch to the province forum. Located in Cardo Maximus, one of the main streets of the city communicating both province and town forum. In that time it was covered in marble.
It is made of granite, and covered in marble in its origins. It measures 13.97 meters high, 5.70 m wide and 8.67 m for arc flash. It is believed to have a triumphal character, although it could also have served as a prelude to the Foro Provincial. Surrounded by modern constructions and neighboring houses, this arch stands majestic and is admired by travelers and historians of all time. Its name is arbitrary because the commemorative inscription was lost centuries ago.
Under that name two funeral buildings are known. They are held in the open, outside the walls of the ancient Roman city. Both of them are the best example of funerary constructions in Emerita. Materials used are masonry and granite masonry. In the two sections identification of the owner families (the vaconios and Joules) are preserved so it has been possible to know the origin and condition of them.
Near the Roman bridge over River Guadiana River. It was built by Abderraman II in 835 AD as a stronghold to control the city, which since 805 had rebelled against the continuous Emirate rule. First Arab fortress of the Iberian Peninsula.
It is a complex construction, consisting of a large square area of 130 square on a side, capable of hosting a large number of troops. Inside there is a beautiful tank, consisting of an endless water tank (filtered from Guadiana) that was accessed through a double corridor underground a tower. A convent for the Order of Santiago was built on one edge and is now the headquarters office of the Junta de Extremadura. Another smaller place called “alcazarejo” (little fortress) is attached next to the Roman bridge, which controlled the river crossing towards the city.

That's That...: Jalin Roze - "Taxi"
I was a little underwhelmed by this Louisville, Kentucky native's recent mixtape, Few & Far Between. The production isn't exactly mind-blowing and his flow at times feels too contrived. Still, I didn't mind this remix of Mos Def and Ski Beat's "Taxi" and if you want to check out the entire tape, hit up 2dopeboyz. Hit the jump for the music video.

In Scotland, a sept is often a family that is absorbed into a larger Scottish clan for mutual benefit. For example, the Muirhead family sept was absorbed into the Clan CampMuirhead. The Muirhead family, being very small and of questionable heritage, gained legitimacy and protection; the CampBrisbane clan absorbed a potential rival for British affection in Scotland. Each Scottish clan typically has a number of septs, each with its own surname. Septs have rights to wear clan tartans although they often have tartans of their own.

FRANKFURT (Reuters) - E.ON expects a planned British retail energy joint venture between Innogy’s npower and SSE to go ahead despite intensifying regulatory scrutiny, Chief Financial Officer Marc Spieker said.
Earlier, British regulators launched an in-depth investigation into the tie-up, saying it may reduce competition and increase prices for some households.
The deal bears significance for E.ON, which last month unveiled plans to acquire Innogy’s European customer businesses as part of a larger asset swap with Innogy’s parent RWE.
Spieker said that deal would be unaffected should regulators eventually decide to block the npower-SSE transaction.

25 MARCH 2004, PHILADELPHIA, PA—The practice of sacrificial burials at First Dynasty (ca. 2950-2775 BC) royal tombs and enclosures has been suggested by Egyptologists since the late 19th century but never proved. However, archeologists working in the desert sands of Abydos, Egypt - more than eight miles from the river Nile - have uncovered strong evidence to suggest that the custom did exist. Moreover, recent excavations have also discovered two new mortuary enclosures - and the royal owner of one has been positively identified.
These new discoveries give us important and fresh information about the transition period in Egypt from prehistoric culture to early pharaonic civilization. The work is being conducted under the authority of Egypt's Minister of Culture Dr. Farouk Hosni, and the Secretary General of the Supreme Council of Antiquities, Dr. Zahi Hawass.
Excavations running from 2001 to 2003, guided in part by magnetic surveys of buried structures, located the two new enclosures. This discovery then led to the uncovering of the archaeological evidence of sacrificial burials within the subsidiary graves surrounding one of them. The team of archaeologists, from the University of Pennsylvania Museum, Institute of Fine Arts at New York University, and Yale University, worked under permit from Egypt's Supreme Council of Antiquities.
Dr. David O'Connor, Lila Acheson Wallace Professor of Egyptian Art and Archaeology, Institute of Fine Arts at New York University, has since 1967 co-directed, with Dr. William Kelly Simpson of Yale University, the NYU-Pennsylvania-Yale Expedition to Abydos. Additionally, Dr. O'Connor is curator emeritus of the Egyptian Section, University of Pennsylvania Museum. Under the Expedition's aegis, Dr. O'Connor is also Director of the Abydos Early Dynastic Project with Matthew Adams, Research Scholar at the Institute of Fine Arts at New York University and Research Associate at the University of Pennsylvania Museum, as Associate Director.
Dr. O'Connor notes: "The royal mortuary enclosures of the First and Second Dynasty kings, who were buried in separate tombs about a mile south of the enclosures at Abydos, are amongst the most puzzling features of Egyptian archaeology. Scholars still argue about their functions and meaning, but our excavations since 1986 have revealed much surprising new evidence about them. Our recent discovery of the earliest enclosure yet known, dating to king Aha, which means literally "the Fighter," at the very beginning of the First Dynasty (ca. 2950 B.C.), has told us more about these monuments than was ever known previously, and has yielded especially important information about the practice of human sacrifice in early Egypt. This rare custom is attested only for the First Dynasty (ca. 2950-2775 B.C.) and is dramatic proof of the great increase in the prestige and power of both kings and elite that occurred at this time."
Egypt's earliest historic kings, dating from the First Dynasty (ca. 2950-2775 B.C.), are buried at Abydos. Their tombs, originally excavated by Flinders Petrie in the 1890s, are located a mile to the south of a cluster of mud-brick monumental enclosures, large open ritual spaces surrounded by mud-brick walls, that are much more mysterious in nature and are presently being investigated by the team of archaeologists from the Institute of Fine Arts at New York University, the University of Pennsylvania Museum and Yale University. While earlier excavators showed that mortuary chapels for the royal cult were included in these monumental enclosures as early as the Second Dynasty, the NYU-Pennsylvania-Yale team has revealed that such mortuary chapels begin much earlier, in fact with the very first king of the First Dynasty.
In 2000, the team announced that it had made an important new discovery about these strange features. In particular, a totally unexpected fleet of 14 full-scale buried boats was found beside one of the enclosures, boats that had been dedicated to the afterlife needs of one of these early kings.
Excavations between 2001 and 2003, guided in part by magnetic surveys of buried structures, have located two new enclosures, the owner of one of which has been positively identified, and uncovered important new information from an already known one. In addition, the archaeologists have strong evidence pointing to sacrificial burials in two sites.
Of the two new enclosures that were discovered, the smaller is of great significance and has been positively identified as belonging to Aha, first king of the First Dynasty (ca. 2950 B.C.), and successor, perhaps son, to the famous king Narmer. The latter's ceremonial palette (oversized decorated stones for grinding cosmetics, dedicated in early temples) may record the first national unification of Egypt. Aha's enclosure is the earliest yet found and is only the second monument of this king discovered over the last 100 years since his tomb was discovered by Petrie a mile to the south. Egypt's earliest civilization under Aha's rule experienced a quantum leap; royal structures became much larger and more complex than before, and writing was more frequently used. This discovery therefore has great cultural importance.
Since Aha's enclosure is relatively small, the archeologists were able to excavate it almost entirely. The result is the first full picture of what one of these enclosures and its chapel was like; indeed, it was the template for all subsequent royal enclosures that followed.
Matthew Adams, project Associate Director, notes that "Aha's enclosure is especially significant because after it had been used for cult activities for a short period, the enclosure and its chapel were ritually prepared for a kind of burial of their own. About one foot of clean sand and gravel were deposited throughout the enclosure, and then the high enclosure walls and the chapel were demolished. The ritual space these features had defined was thus transferred fully into the afterlife, where it was eternally available for the use of the dead king. What the rituals involved can only be guessed at; mortuary offerings were part of them, but re-enactments of important royal ceremonies may have been included."
Importantly, this is the first time that definite evidence for the early demolition of a royal enclosure has been recovered, but archaeologists believe the same process was probably applied to all subsequent First Dynasty enclosures at Abydos.
The second significant finding surrounding Aha's enclosure is the evidence of sacrificial burial. The practice of sacrificial burials at First Dynasty royal tombs and enclosures has been long suspected, since various data indicated it was likely. However, these recent discoveries are by far the strongest archaeological evidence yet found of the practice.
Aha's enclosure had six subsidiary graves around it, the first discovered at Abydos since the 1920s, and five of these were excavated. Painstaking excavation of the subsidiary graves at Aha's enclosure provided the first definite archaeological evidence that such subsidiary burials involved the sacrifice of their occupants, probably at the time of the king's funeral. Killed all at once at this time, these court officials, servants, and artisans were thus immediately conveyed into the afterlife, ready to meet the dead king's needs. Supporting the evidence is the re-excavation and subsequent findings from subsidiary graves attached to the enclosure of Aha's successor, king Djer, nearby.
The new evidence does not relate to the physical anthropology of the actual burials, but rather to the construction of the subsidiary graves as revealed by archaeology. The subsidiary graves of king Djer's enclosure were all contiguous with one another, and careful study of the remains and imprints of their wooden roofing showed it had been constructed as a continuous operation, at the same time for every grave. The burials had therefore all been made at the same time, a circumstance indicating the deaths of these individuals had also taken place all at once.
The subsidiary graves had been plundered soon after receiving their burials, but many broken fragments of the rich array of grave goods survived. These included jar-sealings and artifacts bearing king Aha's name. Clear indications of the wealth lavished upon these high status individuals were the remains of strongly built wooden coffins and jewelry in imported materials such as lapis lazuli and ivory, in addition to carnelian.
Aha was also the first king to have subsidiary/sacrificial burials, which were present at both his tomb and his enclosure. The practice of human sacrifice, like the greatly increased size of the royal tomb and the apparent introduction of large cult enclosures, testifies to a dramatic increase in royal power at this time. The practice of sacrificial burial died out at the end of the First Dynasty, but is echoed later in the elite cemeteries surrounding royal pyramids, and the shabtis, or worker figures which, after about 1650 B.C., were provided to royal and other burials alike.
Nearby, yet another First Dynasty enclosure was located and partly excavated. Its royal owner is not yet identified. It too had subsidiary graves, but the ones excavated so far were packed with donkeys, not humans! Just as one king had boats nearby for his afterlife transportation needs, another had donkeys for the same purpose.
These new discoveries have opened up major new perspectives on Egypt's earliest civilization, and have brought back into prominence an extremely early king, Aha, who led major changes and innovations in Egyptian culture that had an impact on future developments. Royal mortuary enclosures, together with the mound that probably stood above each royal tomb, formed the basis of the Step Pyramid complex of Djoser at Saqqara and the classic pyramids of later times.

LBPSB: Battle of the Books | Let the Battle Begin!
Congratulations to St. Thomas for winning the Ultimate Battle!
Trafalger School for Girls, LaurenHill Academy and St. Thomas had an exciting battle last night. The audience was amazing and our moderators did a fantastic job! A big thank you to everyone to helped out in making this battle a huge success!
Ute Wilkinson from Westwwod High School-Senior Campus took some videos from the final battle. Check out the tie-breaker portion of the evening!
The Final Battle is over – now get set for the Ultimate Battle.
Just like the Canadiens have been going into break-the-tie shootouts during the battle against the Ottawa Senators, the Lester B. Pearson School Board’s 2015 Final Battle of the Books ended its regular run in a 102-to-102 tie between Macdonald and St. Thomas High Schools.
And in an exciting and tension-filled overtime finish in front of a crowd of parents and friends – at which CBC Homerun host Sue Smith was the special guest moderator – the St. Thomas team took away the title of winners of the Final Battle of the Books.
But now comes the Ultimate Battle. On Thursday (April 23), the team from St. Thomas will go up against the winning Final Battle teams from the Trafalgar School for Girls of the Quebec Association of Independent Schools and – for the first time, the English Montreal School Board which will send in a team from Lauren Hill Academy.
CJAD’s Trudie Mason and author Monique Polak – whose book, Straight Punch, is one of the 14 books read for this year’s competition – will be special guest moderators at the April 23 Ultimate Battle of the Books which takes place at the school board..
Battle of the Books is a competition at which teams from different high schools compete against each other to see who knows their books best. Students reply to questions in both regular and lightning rounds from 14 books selected earlier in the school year.
This year’s Final Battle saw teams from four high schools – St. Thomas, Macdonald, Westwood Jr. and last year’s winners in the Final and Ultimate Final, Pierrefonds Comprehensive High School – vying to take the title.
Caroline Pye, St. Thomas librarian and team coach, said the team’s victory was the result of a lot of practice sessions. “Our hard work paid off,” she said.
William Pugsley, a grade 9 student on the St. Thomas team, said he joined the team at the urging of his friends. “It’s been very interesting,” he said as his fellow teammates – Angela Engson, Fatma ElGeneidy, Kiara Lancing, Madeline Mugridge and Emilia Silvestre – chatted excitedly about the game.
Angela Engson, a grade 9 student on the St. Thomas team, said the April 16 event was her second try in the Final Battle of the Books.
The Ulimate Battle of the Books takes place at 7 p.m. on April 23 at the LBPSB, 1925 Brookdale in Dorval.
St. Thomas wins the Final Battle at LBPSB!
Congratulations to St. Thomas for winning an intense battle last Thursday. It was certainly a nail-biter with St. Thomas and Macdonald tied at the end of the battle. It was the first time ever that we went to tie-breaking questions.
Pictures will be posted shortly.
Who will be the winner this Thursday?
The final battle for the LBPSB schools will be held this Thursday at 7 p.m. at the School Board. The winning team will win the banner as well as the opportunity to move forward to the Ultimate battle against the winning teams of EMSB and QAIS.
The public is welcome to attend this battle. Come and cheer for the teams!

Who needs concrete, billboards, and Homeland Security? Sometimes it helps to get out of the manufactured world and sit in nature a while — find a wild spot, just sit down, and observe.
If you believe what the US Forest Service interrogators first said, Terry Lynn Barton started this summer’s big fire in Colorado’s Pike National Forest by burning a letter from her estranged husband.
In 1994, the U.S. Army abandoned its base in San Francisco’s Presidio. In the aftermath, local politicians fought for additional housing, businesses sought retail space, and environmentalists argued for the restoration of sand dunes and wetlands that once covered the area.
Monsanto is pushing to get marketing approval for herbicide-resistant, genetically engineered (GE) Roundup Ready wheat — despite widespread farmer protests that GE wheat from open-air test plots could cross-breed with normal wheat.

You’ve built your startup from the ground up. You’re ready to see your sales really start to take off. There’s just one challenge left to tackle: building a compelling website.
Is your site meant to inform? To sell your products? To encourage visitors to try your service?
If your startup involves selling products online, you’ll need a software solution designed for e-commerce like Shopify, Magento, OpenCart or WooCommerce (just to name a few). If your site involves just information, consider using WordPress or a similar open-source content management system like Drupal to get your site up and running.
Whatever functionality you need, make sure you build your site around its core, don’t crowbar it in afterwards.
You know that your brand is your business “identity.” You also know that brand awareness is key to business success. But if you’re limiting your company brand to a logo in the corner of your homepage, you’re missing out on a huge tool to grow your startup business.
Your brand should be communicated consistently throughout your online presence. Tying your brand into all your site elements, from your images to your content to your color scheme, helps your visitors identify you, associate your business idea with your products and content, and perhaps most importantly, remember your business long after they view your pages.
Incorporate your brand into every aspect of your site, and your website’s power and effectiveness will skyrocket.
The mobile market makes up a large percentage of Internet users, soon they’ll outstrip desktop users—depending on your target market, they might already.
Which is why a mobile-first approach makes absolute sense. Incorporating responsive design, which allows your site to adapt and instantly fit onto a standard mobile device’s frame, is crucial for capturing a mobile audience for your startup company.
If you think you can toss up a basic web design template, add a few graphics and a little content in your spare time and expect your startup to be a success, you’re setting yourself up for failure.
Every aspect of your website is crucial, right down to the smallest detail: your content should be engaging and relevant; your images should be attractive and tie into your brand; your call to actions should be clear and straight-forward.
Don’t DIY your site and hope all the elements magically come together. Hire professionals who can understand your vision and execute every element properly. Research and test every detail to make sure it is onpoint with your business model and goals, and your website will be as exciting and ambitious as your startup idea.
Building a powerful startup website takes work, planning and the marriage of all the right elements. Know what you want and research what you need, and your website will help launch your startup and make you a success!

It was some year, different to others in its intensity and focus but still a worthy entrant. I feel I say this every year but it’s certainly true. Apart from living and experiencing the Middle East while in Qatar, a memorable experience in itself, I travelled to Dubai, Oman, Malaysia, Cambodia, Singapore, Lebanon, Poland twice, Romania three times, Nepal, Czech Republic, Armenia, Georgia, England three times, Scotland, Italy, Barcelona and Turkey seeing the capitals and plenty of other places in all. I’ve seen the mountains and the beaches, the sun and the snow. Friends have been made, re-met and re-made. I’m going to say with confidence it was a good year.
Newcomer of the Year Nancy in Doha. Great fun, funny sense of humour and wicked to boot.
Gary O’Connor deserves an honourable mention too. Great boss, Good drinker. Newcastle United supporter. Mildly crazy.
Being in an Indian dance bar in Muscat. Truly surreal.
The political protest in Armenia over the bus price hike. A direct and effective protest that puts our consumerism to shame. Want to get something done, dont subsidise the enemy!
Red Bull Flugtag event in November????
Films of the Year Cloud Atlas – grand, pretentious, over-ambiitous, stirring, thought-provoking and visual stunning.
Scariest moment of the Year The landing through the storm just before Christmas. Scariest of my life.
Big Balls Moment Mosh pitting in Gdansk with Olivia at the Heineken Opener in Gdansk.
Person of the Year Olivia. It was a fun time from the music to the mountains to the cities.
In all my travelling days, I’ve rarely been more excited about a trip and then satisfied by it. Muscat was as fantastic as they say.
From hearing at the airport that I didn’t need to pay for a short-term visa by the flat, turban-wearing immigration to being greeted by Ajit at his flat with a beer, I knew I’d be happy here. I applied to work in Muscat a few years ago on a whim after seeing an advertisement. I never really followed it up. I should have.
Muscat is essentially three towns strung along the coast making it a long city. The reason for the trio is clear enough as I hailed a shared minibus from the Grand Mosque area to Ruwi, the Indian business area and the middle town. The tree-lined highways have wide grassed central reservations than curl between huge rocky outcrops that divide up the towns. Or huge sand dunes with young Omanis surfing down. No building can be higher than 6 storeys and can be only certain light colours giving the city a colonial-era feel.
The first day I took the minibuses through Ruwi to Murat, the corniche area and then walked around the numerous small bays to Old Muscat. The pavement was accompanied by grassy verges and beds of flowers. Curious, nautical statues dedicated to the sea marked the route. Old Muscat is littered with trees and grand government building but above it all, on every outcrop sits a fort built to ward off invaders from inland and as a look-out to sea. Being Friday it was very peaceful. That afternoon I ate Omani bread with honey and cream and drank some beers with Ajit. We ended up in an Indian dance bar, a weird, weird place about which I talk about more later.
The next day I went to the Grand Mosque, the third largest in the world and again a model of restrain from the outside. Being only 8 years old and tended to by a legions of cleaners, it looks immaculate. I caught another minibus into the centre and searched out the souq which as usual is just a tourist trap selling the usual trinkets and crap. The colonial merchant houses on the promenade give clues to the trading history of the city.
That night I took in more beers with Ajit and swapped travelling stories. I talk of him as an old friend when in fact I was couchsurfing there. But he made the stay so comfortable from the off and had enough stories himself from his days as a surgeon in the Indian Army, I did feel like I’d known him for a while. The last day I met another couchsurfer Qu who showed me round some of the old ruins on the outskirts of the city. I am not sure how good company I was. My head ached from the booze but it was insightful.
Ajit gave me a lift to the airport late that afternoon and I flew back in for work the next day. The old Middle East of Baghdad and Samarkland, Persia and Muscat never seemed so real as those few days in Oman. The grandness of the views are awe-inspiring. I’ll be back for sure and will be trying for at least two of the three above this year. Another adventure begins.

I've written my first SCP by the name of Amos Spacecraft (a communications satellite), and I'm looking for constructive criticism on it. I've read the "How to Write an SCP" guide, and I know that most first writers end up failing miserably, so I'm prepared for the worst. Please, though, do keep the criticism constructive. Thank you.
Moved this thread to General Advice and locking it since it's improperly made.
TheDoctorisHere, the Announcements forum is for threads that note site-wide news that involves either new language branch activity or mainsite staff announcements. Individual new articles and tales are grouped in their own collective threads.
Furthermore, criticism should be sought before a mainsite post, in the forums and/or IRC chat. Once something is posted to the mainsite, no one is obligated to give any more feedback than their vote. Anyone who does leave a comment is doing the author a favor, not fulfilling an expectation.

A cancer diagnosis prompted a big change for the Beissel family — one that would eventually lead them to restoring Manjimup's Fonty's Pool to its former glory.
In helping to save the life of an icon of regional WA, Jeremy Beissel has in many ways saved his own. But restoring Fonty’s Pool, on the outskirts of Manjimup, to its former glory has been anything but a regulation journey for the Beissel family, who suspect they have even had some help from beyond the grave from late owner and founder, Archimedes Fontanini.
Jeremy and his wife Kelly were happily trading out of their rock lobster fishing boat off WA’s northern Coral Coast when his increasing tiredness, lingering sinus infections and regular bouts of illness were diagnosed as acute myeloid leukemia.
“It was a pretty harrowing time and it could have gone either way,” Mr Beissel says.
The couple had taken out a new income protection insurance policy at the urging of their bank just three months earlier, and the timing could not have been more perfect. It allowed Jeremy and Kelly to build a caravan out of an old hay-carting trailer and travel around Australia with young daughters Josie and Carly for 14 months while he fought his health battle. By the time they arrived back in Leeman and returned to the fishing game, Mr Beissel’s health had improved markedly. But the Beissels soon realised they had moved on and were looking for a change away from the sea.
Mr Beissel knew nothing of Fonty’s Pool in 2005 when his mum told him it was for sale. So after checking out a potential backpacking business in Dunsborough, they decided to detour to the Manjimup venture and immediately fell in love.
“We drove in here and saw a mess of a place which was really beautiful and had heaps of potential,” he says.
With the tender closing in one week, it was a heartbeat call that has changed their lives. A positive meeting with two of Mr Fontanini’s grandchildren added to their optimism about rebuilding the caravan park.
Once the refurbishment gained momentum, he says locals were quick and generous with their time and help. But it was an insurance blow that ultimately proved a bonus.
The property insurer decided not to take on a new public liability policy under the Beissels’ management. It added initial financial pressure but the 18 months before they could negotiate a new insurance deal allowed them time and space to rebuild the iconic venue.
“Without being open, we could solve the problems we needed to and we could think bigger picture while everything was in bits,” Mr Beissel says.
Still, asked how many times the project nearly ended in divorce, his answer is emphatic: “Oh, twice ... a day”.
One look at the property now, including chalets in the refurbished park and a $19,000 pool fence that defines the historic part of the property, reveals an extreme makeover success story. It is one Mr Beissel sheepishly admits may have enjoyed some input from the late owner.
Mr Fontanini arrived in Australia from Italy in 1904 and, after working for three years at the Greenbushes Timber Corporation sawmill, bought the Fonty’s Pool property. The pool, which holds 18 million litres of water and has a winter flow rate of 44,000 litres per hour, was opened to the public in 1925. Mr Fontanini died, aged 102, in 1982.
Mr Beissell believes the beauty of Fonty’s Pool is in its versatility, from a couple enjoying a coffee while overlooking the pool to a wedding and reception or the seventh annual Truffle Kerfuffle, which will again attract thousands of visitors next weekend.
The festival of food and wine started almost by accident.
“When we came here we didn’t even know what a black truffle was and no one had even found one back then,” he says.
“Now we’re in the largest hub for black truffles in the Southern Hemisphere and it will probably become the black truffle hub of the world. When we started we got a few volunteers and put up a festival and 1200 people turned up. It was ridiculous.

Saturday marked Tyler Seguin's first game on the sideliens with a cut Achilles tendon, but he’s already planning his return. Seguin said he “doesn’t picture” himself missing Game 1 of the post-season.
Stars winger Tyler Seguin suffered a gruesome injury when he suffered a 15 percent cut to his Achilles tendon in a contest this past Thursday against the Tampa Bay Lightning, but the 24-year-old is already making it clear that he’s not keen on missing any post-season action.
Given a 3-4 week timeline for return, Seguin told the Dallas Morning News’ Mike Heika that a playoff return is the target following surgery to repair the sliced tendon.
Seguin’s injury occurred during the dying seconds of the March 17 contest against the Lightning when he was engaged with Tampa Bay defenseman Anton Stralman. Stralman’s skate clipped Seguin’s right ankle, but the winger managed to play the remaining 22 seconds of the period, stopping and starting before the game ended.
Seguin told Heika he knew “right away” what had happened but he began to worry when he saw blood on his hand after he checked out the injury following the game’s final seconds. Seguin said he was more worried once he got his skate off, but the news actually wasn’t all that bad.
“It was an unlucky injury, and I’m fortunate and happy it’s not more prolonged,” Seguin told Heika.
If the cut had been much deeper, Seguin would likely be facing more time on the sidelines, but the 3-4 week timeline actually puts him close to the start of the post-season. Three weeks from his Friday surgery would actually line up perfectly with the Stars’ final game of the regular season — possible, but not entirely likely — that would be a big break for Dallas. However, Seguin and the Stars will get a break in that they could have two or more days between their final regular season tilt and Game 1 of any playoff series.
Dallas was successful in their first outing without Seguin — a 3-0 victory over the New York Islanders Saturday — but he’s one of the game’s best scorers and having him back in time for the first game of the opening round would give the Stars a boost. Seguin had 33 goals and 73 points before falling injured and he was scoring at a better than point-per-game rate.

I managed to get a damage type class set up for each sword, so now there's Wind, Fire, Ice and Lightning damage types. They each have three levels of effects that can fire off depending on the charge level of the sword. I set up damage over time functions and a function to damage the pawn from falling (useful for damage types that launch the enemy into the air). I also set up a function to handle knockback from the different swords. My idea is to make the heavier swords (ice and lightning) stun the enemy a little. This should help balance the swords and still give them a little more diversity. Right now, I just have it set to add some velocity to the enemy in the direction of the sword strike, but eventually I'll throw in some animations showing the enemy stumble a little.
It was actually a lot of work trying to set up four different classes and trying to maintain some semblance of good software architecture principles. The damage types were all similar to each other, but in different ways. For example, I wanted the wind damage type to launch the enemies back - kind of like a shock wave. I wanted the lightning and fire damage types to have this effect too, but only on the level three charge, simulating thunder and an explosion respectively. Then there was damage over time. The lightning, fire, and ice damage types handled the actual DoT exactly the same, except I wanted different side effects for each.
I ended up creating another abstract damage type class for those three to extend, and added a function declaration to do their own side effects. I added a function to the damage type class that they all inherited from to cause a radial impulse wave, which the sub classes can call whenever they need it individually. It was really messy for a while, but after a few hours of re-factoring, I think I managed to clean it up quite nicely.
