Personality Description: Mem has the happy, optimistic attitude common to her race. She also has a worldly bent, having spent a good part of her life traveling.
Biography Edit
Mnemnoth Frostflange is the daughter of Hamibad and Marizafan Frostflange. She was born aboard the Blue Moon, a trade ship, somewhere between the southern tip of Azeroth and Eastern Kalimdor. Her parents were exploraventers, gnomish explorers who use local items to invent new devices. Their most well-known success was a flange nut that could stand up to extreme levels of cold, hence the family name. Hamibad and Marizafan also have several other inventions to their name, some of them not so well known. According to Mem, the last item they attempted to design included using fruit found around Stranglethorn to somehow function as a medium for long range communication. The banatelefonicator, or banaphonication system, fell flat.
Mem spent a good deal of her early life constantly moving with her parents. The only time she saw the home city of her race was when the battle against the Troggs was nearly over, shortly before Gnomeregan fell. Mnemnoth and her parents were both affected by the radiation leaks that occurred during the last moments of the city, but members of the Enlightened Assembly of Arcanology, Alchemy and Engineering Sciences were able to save her due to her parents heroic actions in shielding her from the worst of the radiation. However, saving the life of their daughter cost them their own.
Mem was shown great kindness during this period of her life by an older warlock named Quinnette Bramblefoot. The gentle woman became Mem's surrogate family, mentor and teacher as the young girl followed in the footsteps of a woman she greatly admired. When the time arose for Mem to choose what she would do with her life, it came as no surprise when she chose to take up the study of the Fel Arts.
Mem became a star pupil during her classes, following her grandmother's advice and example. She had problems with a few subjects, namely Demonology and Applied Theoretical Arcano-physics but otherwise earned marks of honor for dedication, intelligence and dillegence in study. During her last year of training, her application to the Enlightened Assembly of Arcanology, Alchemy and Engineering Sciences was accepted and she became a card-carrying member. Shortly after graduation, Mem was approached by persons claiming to be involved with an organization known as the Shadowgate Sentinels. After going through an intensive application process, she was accepted.
Currently Edit
Mnemnoth is currently the only practitioner of the Fel Arts in the Shadowgate Sentinels, a fact which has caused her some concern. Believing that she is not fully prepared to handle this responsibility, Mem began to seek out other warlocks. She was shocked at the amount of anger and prejudice directed her way upon her first visit to Stormwind. Seeking refuge, she first sought out the Scions of Darkness, who seemed to be the only organization in support of Warlocks in the city or even the entire Alliance.
However, she quickly began to investigate the history of the order, becoming distrustful as she uncovered more and more of the history of Keruptis SaDiablo. Mem believes that the legacy of Keruptis is too dangerous to ignore and is currently seeking out fellow warlocks to form an alliance to provide an alternative to the Scions and their beliefs and practices.
OOC InfoEdit
The disparate elements that came together in the creation of Mem include, but are not limited too:
A healthy dose of Hobbits. Sam was always my favorite character from Tolkien's novel and the nature of the hobbits has a big influence on the way I perceive gnomish culture. It is also balanced by the Kender from the Dragonlance setting and novels. While the two races are similar, they have their own quirks. I've borrowed and switched from both, happy to dwell slightly on the humorous side of Azeroth that Blizzard does such a good job presenting.
On a more serious note, Mem's sense of humor and her ability to withstand tragedy is heavily flavored by Jewish humor. During the worst parts of the Holocaust and in the terrible years surrounding it, the Jewish sense of sarcastic humor provided a way to deal with the awful reality surrounding them. This wry sense of comedy is written into the language of everyday life, from small turns of phrases to commonly used expressions. The Jewish sense of humor would go on to heavily influence American comedy and it has heavily influenced me - and, by extension, my creation.

The effects of quantitative easing are poorly understood, in part because standard models of monetary policy predict that it doesn't work. This column uses a model in which households can be unequal and hold assets with different degrees of liquidity to show that quantitative easing can provide a powerful stimulus to the macroeconomy, and that it avoided a large decline in output and inflation during 2009. Nevertheless, side-effects on inequality mean that social welfare tends to be lower under quantitative easing than under conventional policy.

Almost 60 years ago, John Muth introduced the idea that adaptive expectations are rational if they efficiently use all available information. However, individuals are never fully certain, even ex post, about the permanence of economic developments. Using Israeli data, this explores the implications of this residual uncertainty for market efficiency. The findings point to issues with conventional market efficiency tests where 'permanent-transitory confusion' is in effect.
Marcel Fratzscher, Christoph Grosse Steffen, Malte Rieth, 17 August 2018
Does inflation targeting help absorb large shocks? This column shows that it implies higher output growth and lower inflation when countries are hit by natural disasters. Hard targeting works in these cases; soft targeting does not. This has impacts for how we evaluate the success of inflation targeting during the global crisis, but also for the debate on flexible inflation targeting.
Paolo Pasimeni, Stéphanie Riso, 19 January 2017
EU budget reform is a key issue in policy debates, in particular the redistributive effects between member states. This column assesses redistribution within the EU budget over the period 2000 to 2014. It finds that the net redistributive impact of the EU budget is rather small and, contrary to common belief, that the revenue side is more progressive than the expenditure side.
László Andor, Paolo Pasimeni, 13 December 2016
Since its inception, the Eurozone has had lower growth and higher unemployment rates than other regions, which suggests the need for new fiscal instruments. This column argues for a stabilisation instrument based on unemployment as the driving indicator. This unemployment benefit scheme coud take the form of a basic common European scheme, or a reinsurance fund supporting national systems. In either case, the instrument wouldn't be a panacea, and the key obstacle to implementation would be political.
Tommaso Monacelli, 12 February 2016
The boom-bust cycle in the Eurozone between 2000 and 2008 is essentially a story of cyclical asymmetries between the Core and the Periphery. While stressing the importance of addressing these asymmetries – especially via fiscal policy – the ECB has failed to take them explicitly into account in its own policy-setting. This essay argues that these asymmetries may persist precisely because they are not a central target of stabilisation policy – both fiscal and monetary.

Languages Orc
Frenzy (Ex)
Once per day, an oronci that takes damage in combat can fly into a frenzy as a free action the following round. While in this state, an oronci cannot use any Charisma-, Dexterity-, or Intelligence-based skill checks, but functions as if under the effects of a haste spell. The oronci can continue to frenzy for up to 3 rounds, after which it is staggered for 1 round.
Poison (Ex)
Bite–injury; save Fort DC 17; frequency 1/round for 6 rounds; effect 1d3 Dex; cure 2 consecutive saves.
Spit (Ex)
An oronci can spit poison at a target within 30 feet as a standard action. This is a ranged touch attack, and can only be performed once every 1d6 rounds. If the attack is successful, the target is affected by the poison just as if it had been injured. The oronci can still poison a target with each successful bite attack.
Undersized Weapons (Ex)
Although an oronci is Large, its upper torso is the same size as that of a Medium humanoid. As a result, oronci wield weapons as if they were one size category smaller than their actual size (Medium for most oronci).
Environment any underground
Organization solitary, pair, or nest (3–9)
Treasure standard (heavy wooden shield, mwk battleaxe)
When drow fleshwarping alchemy is turned and focused upon an orc, the obscene result is called an oronci. Upon submersion in a fleshwarper's alchemical ichor, the unfortunate orc's legs merge, and its lower body turns black and elongates to a length of approximately 15 feet. This new body divides into segments, with each segment sprouting a pair of short, sturdy, thin legs. Finally, the horror's tusks connect to newly grown poison ducts that constantly drip poisonous spittle. The orc's head and upper body stay relatively intact as far as fleshwarping goes, though its eyes sometimes adopt a dark, vacant stare. With the exception of the driders, the oronci are among the most useful of the obscenities produced by fleshwarping. They embody all the savage brutality of an orc warrior, but mounted centaurlike upon an even larger, more powerful frame. Being less intelligent than drow, oronci make better shock troopers and advance soldiers for drow armies than the dark elves themselves. Oronci who have escaped the slavery of the dark elves have become favored champions for certain clever orc chieftains. Some oronci even overcome their sensitivity to daylight given time, which makes them better suited to terrorize the surface lands.

Do not be fooled by what you see on Television or in the paper about dumb criminals. Speaking Points truly reports and investigates original news stories (unlike most partisan blogs) and was the initial media organization to break the news of the US Justice Department Scandal involving the firing of Assistant US Attorneys for political motives. The story was headlined as breaking news" and it supposedly proved that the White House had direct involvement in editing speaking points connected to the death of four Americans in Libya. Anonymous, the movie was James at 15. It was then turned into a tv series, Jessica at 16. I do not feel it lasted lengthy adequate to alter its name to James at 17.
Mid America Live News will update when a lot more information is created obtainable to us. If he thinks CNN's Jim Acosta was dealt a undesirable hand, Smith delivers fake news continually and must join Acosta. The negative news is that you happen to be the lucky owner of a Samsung LCD HDTV that has a recognized dilemma with capacitors going poor soon after 2 to three years, and If you did not obtain an extended warranty, then you might be headed for a $200-$400 repair bill. Even though Mr. Zuckerberg has not too long ago posted that the social media platform is a place for all voices, with the present state of American media and the evolving social media news sourcing, it seems our public is being brainwashed to care only about liberal causes.
But, Jerry also tried his hand at many short-lived Tv series, a single getting Nashville 99 that aired in 1977. Just because the Television news character says it, does not validate, or make their statements true. Extremely nice back round perform on talented,discovered,credible,and right pondering ladies who contribute to the explanation why FOX is most viewed presentation of the day-to-day news. Take into account breaking into the sports broadcasting industry much like taking your 1st trip from Los Angeles to Washington D.C.
The story went on to win a Pulitzer Prize, which they have been forced to return when news came out that the story was a total fabrication. Breaking news, entertainment, fascinating articles and videos – everything's a buzz that will absolutely flood your feed! I speedily saw some thing on the news about her receiving greater and i cant locate out who it is or what her name is…..quite interested in the information as i always stick to fox news!!!!!! For instance, in the course of the Sago Mine disaster , there have been initial reports that all twelve miners were located alive, but news organizations later discovered that only 1 truly survived.
They are your maids municipal workers who come to operate on the sewers outside your house when they are blocked Tv repair people the garden service males. Really excellent writing, media and technologies has been 'manipulating the masses' even ahead of Tv. It is a great comfort for individuals, but a strong tool for these that handle it!! I have broken down the list into film stars, Tv stars and other media personalities. Although on the telephone breaking up, he told me that he spent a lot of time analyzing the college year and attempting to figure out if he was really pleased with how his grades and how things had been telling me that college is a one-shot deal and that he genuinely has to make it count (he likes to create his thoughts to come decisions).

Curious to see what next fall might look like, and by that I mean silhouettes, pieces and styling tip that perhaps at first glance don't make you want to jump the roof, but when the time gets there, pretty much tick all the boxes you want to channel the next season. From my own experience Pheoebe Philo has this effect on people, sneaking into our unconsciousness, myself included.
For the A/W collection I'm personally very happy the vibrant coloured spray prints are gone (they were short lived anyway), and we're back to the minimal and wearable Celine we all known. Key pieces are knitted tunics, flared legs, coats-coats-coats, feathers and earpieces, and that twisted hair bun is already on!

It hasn't been peer-reviewed yet, but we assume Bulbapedia just gets a lot of emails and can't always answer everything within six months.

Program Update
The year has been great so far. The new Soil Chemistry class is going very well and the students seem to really enjoy it. The NCAP grant is paying for all the class supplies as well as training and sub days for me. The grant will also purchase a van for the program to use for contests and leadership conferences.
With the Small Rural Schools Perkins Grant from last year I was able to buy a bunch of new equipment for the shop. We are still installing some of the equipment. The paint booth is not finished yet, but I am hoping that by the early spring it will be done. The school garden is also moving along. The Ag Mechanics class will be installing the raised planter beds and the water lines.
We just finished the Ag Booster Dinner and I would like to say thank you to everyone that helped out. Attendance was down, but we still made money. A new CTE Grant is coming out from the State which has the potential to bring in up to $100,000 to the program each year for the next 3 years. I am hoping that we will receive that amount so that we are able to finally get the school farm started.

One of the most beautiful times in Minnesota, is the fall.
I can't express how much I love living here and a lot has to do with the seasons.
Scott (who has lived most of his life in Minnesota) took me up north to go four wheeling :-) He has a restored Bronco that he's kept since he was in high school, so it became a photo subject.

Sorry for being a bit slow in getting round to writing something about the second season of The Scarlet Pimpernel starring Richard E Grant.
I won't write about this in as much detail as I did about the first season, which I think is better – but did want to say that I think it is worth watching, and the first episode of the second season, in particular, is probably my favourite out of the whole series.
The first series largely centres on the love triangle between Sir Percy Blakeney (Grant), his wife Marguerite (Elizabeth McGovern) and her ex-lover, now a spy for Robespierre, Chauvelin (Martin Shaw), who is Blakeney's arch-enemy. However, in the second series both Shaw and McGovern are out of the cast – I don't know what the reasons for this were but would guess that Shaw, at least, had other commitments – and Grant pretty well has to carry the series on his own. Ronan Vibert's role as Robespierre is stepped up so that he becomes the main villain of the piece, and John McEnery is brought in as Sir William Wetherby, a new older sidekick for Percy. Both of these are fine actors and Vibert in particular is downright chilling as Robespierre – but I must say that I missed both Marguerite and Chauvelin, and felt losing both these central characters together was a real shame, taking away from the romance and tension.
However, although I prefer the first series in general, I do love Ennui, the first episode of the second series, which was directed by Graham Theakston, who also made a fine version of The Mill on the Floss (1997), which I've reviewed here in the past. This episode was scripted by Matthew Hall, who is also a crime novelist under the name MR Hall – I haven't read any of his books as yet, but am tempted.
This episode gives Richard E Grant a chance to play someone beside himself with grief, after Marguerite dies giving birth to their daughter. This is one of the plot twists which, I believe, infuriated Orczy purists, because it departs so far from the books – but, for me, Grant is brilliant in these scenes, as he puts one of Marguerite's dresses on a fire and ignores the timid suggestions from a housekeeper that she should give the frock to her for her daughter's trousseau.
Much of the episode sees Blakeney wrapped up in himself and his misery – there are scenes where he is at court, wearing a strangely disconcerting bright white wig, and the Prince of Wales upbraids him for dwelling on his grief, although the slightly surprising word the Prince chooses to describe it is "ennui", ie boredom/depression. Wetherby also has a go at him for letting his work as the Pimpernel slip, telling him it isn't what Marguerite would have wanted. You can see they are worried and trying to make him snap out of it, but I kept wishing someone would show some sympathy instead of being quite so bracing.
Of course, he does soon return to the fray, as he has to rescue a young woman determined to save her parents from the guillotine, but the feeling of loneliness is there all through this second series. Each of the three episodes has a major female character who joins Percy in his plotting to save victims from the guillotine, and there are hints of romance at times, but none of them really takes the place of Marguerite either in his heart or in the drama.
Bringing in Robespierre as a major character gives the writers and directors of this second series (these are different for each episode) a chance to show how the Revolution developed. Many of the characters, are seen as with loyalties to both sides, torn between their original idealism/radicalism and their current reliance on violence – and trying to justify their increasingly brutal and desperate actions both to others and to themselves. Percy himself does make mistakes in this series, and sometimes puts himself and others in danger, especially in the last episode, where his foppishness boils over into spiteful frustration at times – but all this helps to make him a very human hero.
As in the first series, the sets and costumes are breathtaking – and the whole is well up to the best BBC production values.

Disabled California Man Saved from Starvation Death (1997)
By Liz Townsend
Robert Wendland, severely disabled since a 1993 car accident, will not be starved to death, a California judge has ruled. The case pitted Wendland's wife, who had asked the court to allow his feeding tube to be removed, against his mother and sister, who insisted he was conscious, responsive, and did not deserve to die.
"What has happened here is the prevention of a slow, grueling, and potentially excruciatingly painful death for a person who is conscious and can experience pain," Janie Hickok Siess, the attorney opposing Mrs. Wendland's starvation request, told the Sacramento Bee. Robert Wendland cannot walk or speak, but he is aware of his environment, breathes on his own, and has communicated nonverbally with other people.
The case is one of several recent court battles in which others have argued that patients who were severely disabled, though conscious and responsive, would be "better off dead" and have sought to withdraw basic care from them. "These cases represent the effort to expand the range of people with disabilities who could have treatment and care withdrawn, including food and fluids," said Thomas J. Marzen, general counsel of the National Legal Center for the Medically Dependent and Disabled. "So far, that effort has failed, but proponents are nothing if not determined."
Indeed, Wendland's safety may still be in jeopardy. In February, the same judge who refused to order his death last December allowed Wendland's wife to continue making decisions for him, even though she has insisted it is in his best interests to die.
Dana Cody of the Life Legal Defense Foundation, which is providing financial help to those seeking to save Wendland's life, told NRL News that he is not now receiving any significant physical therapy. Absent therapy, his chances of catching pneumonia or developing other complications are greatly enhanced.
Wendland went into a coma following a car accident in September 1993. He awoke from the coma 16 months later, partially paralyzed but responsive, according to syndicated columnist Wesley J. Smith.
He now breathes on his own, but needs a nasogastric feeding tube to provide nutrition and hydration. In July 1995, Wendland's wife Rose asked the hospital to remove his feeding tube, saying that Wendland told her he would not want to live if he couldn't "be a husband, father or a provider," Smith reported.
His doctors and an ethics committee at Lodi Memorial Hospital West, where he remains in residence, refused to remove his feeding tube. Wendland was scheduled to be transferred to a convalescent home where his tube would be removed, according to the Sacramento Bee. Wendland's mother, Florence, and his sister, Rebekah Vinson, strongly objected to Rose Wendland's starvation request and obtained a temporary restraining order to force the case into the courts before any action was taken to cause his death.
They insist Wendland can drive his electric wheelchair by himself, propel a manual wheelchair with his unparalyzed side, write some letters of his name, and answer yes or no questions using buttons, according to Smith's column. When he was asked, "Is your name Robert?" he answered yes; to "Is your name Michael?" he answered no. Doctors asked if he wanted to die, but he did not answer, Smith reported.
The case went to trial before Superior Court Judge Bob McNatt in October 1997 and lasted until December 9, when the judge dismissed the case. Judge McNatt concluded that he found "no basis in California law to terminate treatment for a person in Wendland's medical condition," the Bee reported. "If I have to choose life and death based on the evidence presented to me, I must err on the side of caution and choose life," McNatt said in court, according to the Associated Press.
Only Rose Wendland's lawyers and a public defender, assigned to protect Robert's interests but who agreed that he should die, presented their sides before the case was dismissed. McNatt is expected to issue a written decision in the case within the next few weeks.
After that, Rose Wendland's lawyers told the Bee they would decide whether to appeal to the California 3rd District Court of Appeals. Life Legal Defense Foundation's Cody said the opposing side would certainly cross-appeal and continue to fight to save Robert Wendland's life.
"It is an incredible indication of how dominant prejudice against people with disabilities has become in our society that courts could even seriously consider the starvation of a conscious person with no terminal illness – – because the person has a disability," said Burke Balch, director of NRLC's Department of Medical Ethics. "As the Wendland case shows, with America's acceptance of the 'quality of life' ethic, once you put a price on human life, the price goes down."

Soot may be responsible for the tropics expanding north, according to an analysis involving multiple computer models of the climate. By absorbing sunlight and trapping extra heat in the atmosphere, the tiny, black particles may be helping the poleward march of tropical conditions.
The research will be published in Nature on May 17. (Scientific American is part of Nature Publishing Group.)
The tropics—the belt of land around the equator characterized by abundant rainfall and torrid temperatures —have been expanding for at least 40 years. In fact, the tropics have widened by roughly 0.7 degrees of latitude per decade in recent years, or more than two degrees of latitude since 1979.
The tropics are hot and wet because the sun warms the air more near the equator thanks to a more direct shine. This warmed air rises and then cools, condensing its water vapor, which falls as rain. This zone of heat and wetness has been spreading south thanks to ozone pollution but the cause of its northward spread had been mysterious. But the computer simulations suggest that it is soot (with an assist from the greenhouse gas ozone again) that is helping make the northern subtropics nearly as hot as the tropics themselves.
Only by adding the warming from soot to these computer models did the results begin to mimic what is actually happening, including increased dryness in the subtropics. At present, air raised by the sun's heat in the tropics often sinks back down as hot dry air at roughly 30 degrees latitude, creating a global belt of deserts. That belt is also beginning to move, along with the jet stream and its attendant storms.
The extra soot and ozone driving this shift in the north is coming from the increase in fossil fuel burning in the northern hemisphere. Eliminating that pollution would not only slow this tropical shift, it would also curb climate change and improve human health—and reducing fossil fuel burning can be accomplished by such simple steps as using cleaner cookstoves or improved internal combustion engines. After all, the soot that doesn't make it to the atmosphere, often finds a final resting place in human lungs.

up until 3 years ago i always had stomach issues and problems with migraines/eczema/asthma/hives. then i started experiencing severe stomach cramps - severe to the point that i would pass out. um, red flag. i decided to see an allergist vs. going to a gastro doc after talking with a friend who was having similar symptoms. the allergist performed a scratch test on my back with 80 different types of food. i waited 30 minutes for the test to end - biting my nails the whole time - to preoccupy myself while my back itched to high hell.
|cortisone, anyone?
when my doc returned to the room to check my back her jaw dropped. she couldnt believe that i was allergic to so many foods - over 30 of them. to confirm the scratch test - she ordered a smattering of blood panels - to test for IgE antibodies. the back scratch test results were confirmed with the RAST blood tests - i really was allergic to a TON of different foods - all of which i ate regularly. i went home and drank a bottle of wine for dinner that night.
my allergist suggested i visit a gastroenterologist and be tested to celiac disease. and so i did - it took a year of misc testing with my gastro to first rule out other diseases/disorders with blood and dna tests. he told me that i needed to have my stomach scoped and biopsied to completely rule out celiac disease and other problems.
$4,000 later my results were in - no celiac disease, no nothing. amen right?!?! yes and no. to this day my docs and i still dont know why i'm allergic to corn, beef, yeast, hops, cumin, wheat, cucumbers, barley, rye, oats, etc, etc, etc. i was a bit ticked that i spent that much money and still wasnt getting relief from my symptoms. i pushed and pushed my gastro until he finally tested me for lactose intolerance. no more dairy for me. it turns out that i'm off the scale lactose intolerant. as soon as i cut removed dairy from my diet - my stomach cramps disappeared. read here for the difference between a food allergy and a food intolerance.
here i am 3 years later. i now go in once a year for an annual allergy test. my allergies have changed over time - some have disappeared, some new ones have shown up. its an uphill battle. its tough not knowing why my body reacts to food and its even tougher cooking/baking things that are safe.
|want to know whats in your food/where it comes from?
in short, my quest is to create allergy friendly foods that ACTUALLY taste good. i'm sick of skipping out on delicious foods and enjoying those little things in life.

Blade Trap
Please see the related discussion on this article's talk page for more information concerning its future layout.
|Blade Trap
Blade Traps,(LA)[1] also known simply as Traps,(TLoZ)[2] are recurring traps in The Legend of Zelda series.
The Legend of Zelda Manual Comment
Tingle's Comment
Blade Traps are formidable, mechanized obstacles equipped with spikes or blades. They come in a variety of types and are always impervious to all attacks, with some either staying dormant until approached, and others moving in a set path.
Blade Traps as dormant obstacles are common to the 2D games, in titles such as The Legend of Zelda, Link's Awakening, Oracle of Seasons, and Oracle of Ages. Generally speaking, upon crossing the path of a Blade Trap, whether vertical or horizontal, the trap will react instantly by closing in rapidly on the intruder. Contact with a Blade Trap damages Link (usually one Heart by default) and may prove deadly in some circumstances. After being set off, they will slowly return to their original position.
Other Blade Traps glide along a projected path, specifically those in Ocarina of Time and Majora's Mask, but also appears in some 2D games as well, such as A Link to the Past. These Blade Traps move along the ground, regardless of Link's presence, at the same constant speed, competing for space. The path of these traps vary; with some either moving from one side to the next, and others moving in a complete circle.
Other, although much less common, types of Blade Traps have also appeared throughout the series. A Link to the Past and Oracle of Seasons and Oracle of Ages introduced giant versions of Blade Traps, which move in a set path around the room, taking up large amounts of space. In Twilight Princess, a stone model used in the Arbiter's Grounds and a gilded model used in the Temple of Time appear, both of which appear as obstacles that move along the Spinner rails. The boss of Arbiter's Grounds, Stallord, makes great use of them in its boss battle. These Blade Traps are the only kind that can be destroyed, as the Dominion Rod may be used to bring a nearby statue to life, consequently smashing the trap in question with its ax.
A similar type of trap called the Chaser appears in Oracle of Seasons and Oracle of Ages, Four Swords and The Minish Cap, which is a sentient bladed trap that will follow Link down narrow corridors once he is within its line of vision.
|Trap (Figurine from The Minish Cap)
|Appear in various areas. A trap with sharp blades. Some are triggered by nearby intruders, while others follow a set path.
Blade Traps appear as a hazard in Skyward Sword. They can be found in Lanayru Desert on the way to meeting Lanayru, the Thunder Dragon. These sharp blades move back and forth, making it difficult for Link to pass through the area.

Could these vineyards be some of the oldest in the world? On the same latitude as Chablis, Tokaji experiences a much warmer climate because of its central European location and the sheltering Carpathian Mountains to the north, west and east. This, together with the influence of the Tisza and Bodrog rivers, produces the magic combination of humid nights and warm, fine autumns which result in such fantastic sweet wines from botrytis grapes, similar to Sauternes.
Patricius is very much the new kid on the block, bursting onto the scene since 2005 with a succession of medals, awards and rapturous endorsement.
Deszö Kékessy was an Hungarian exile during Communism, who returned to his beloved Tokaji having established a successful business in Switzerland. Little by little he has bought 150ha of the very best vineyards, built a fabulous new winery and employed top winemaker Péter Molnár. Deszö's daughter and son in law run what he has established as a true legacy for his family.
The attention to detail is breathtaking: re-planting and even re-orienting rows of vines where necessary, and upholding a standard of perfection in both vinegrowing and winemaking which is evident in the quality of the wines, which display exquisite elegance and class, with a fine tension between complex fruit and honey flavours, minerality and rapier-like acidity.
And what are Puttonyos? Don't be concerned – this refers to the number of tubs of sweet, botrytised unctuous grapes added to each barrel of dry, fermented wine.

Beto's Mexican Grill
If your vision of heaven involves tortillas covered with meat, cilantro, and onions, then Beto's Mexican Grill, 1709 Southwest Blvd., is a little slice of paradise.
This is especially true if your concept of the perfect taco includes barbacoa, which I think is Spanish for "I'll have three of those, please." (OK, so I just made that up. Barbacoa is actually Mexican barbecue, and around here, it frequently involves goat, which is what beef wants to taste like when it grows up.)
Beto's offers an extensive menu that includes terrific enchiladas, quesadillas, menudo, American-style tacos, and my personal favorite: traditional Mexican tacos, which consist of small, soft, gently fried corn tortillas topped with meat, cilantro, and finely chopped onions. Tacos are available with a variety of meats, including the usual steak, pork, and chicken, along with several more exotic options (we're fond of goat and beef tongue). Dine-in orders are served with chips and fresh salsa made just the way I like it: with plenty of cilantro and a respectable kick.
On our last visit, Ron tried the fish tacos, which include grilled fish and fajita-style peppers and onions, while I had the barbacoa tacos and a bowl of menudo — a simple, brothy soup made from tripe, pork, and whatever else the cook feels like adding. Beto's version is served in an enormous bowl, accompanied by a couple of lime wedges and several little dishes containing dried oregano, chopped jalapenos, and dried New Mexican chiles, all of which can be added to the bowl at the diner's discretion.
Upon learning that this was my first encounter with menudo, the restaurant's owner — an affable guy with a quick smile and a friendly manner — gave me a crash course in the finer points of making and seasoning this traditional Mexican dish. He suggested squeezing a lime wedge over the bowl and adding some Tabasco, which turned out to be good advice.
The prices are very reasonable (you can stuff yourself for under $10), and the service is friendly. On very hot days, it might be advisable to eat late or take dinner orders to go, as the orientation of the windows is such that the restaurant can get a little too warm just before sunset.
Beto's is open 5 a.m. to 9 p.m. Monday through Saturday. It closes at 3 p.m. on Sundays. Dine-in, carryout and delivery are available. For more information, call 599-9300.

We went last Saturday night. The service was great, as was the the food. If you are downtown/urban averse, it might not be the place for you. If you like good authentic Mexican food with great hospitality, this is a great place to frequent. I'm definitely going back.
You should check out Elote downtown (on boston between 5th and 6th st.). It's a mexican style eatery that is locally owned and caters to a healthier meal. The Puffy Tacos are delectable!

text: Merlyn_LeRoy 72 Posted August 22, 2013 The Christian leaders of a troop of Girl Guides are defying orders from their national HQ to scrap the old promise to 'love my God'. A controversial decision was made in June to abandon allegiance to God, with the traditional pledge replaced with the words 'be true to myself and develop my beliefs'. The new promise comes into effect from September 1. But last night it was revealed that a group of 'rogue' Girl Guide leaders have vowed that they will stick with the old promise and defy the line set by Girlguiding UK, the national body.

It took 17 years and no small amount of public ridicule as it sat dormant in the New Jersey meadowlands, but a small portion of the American Dream mall is now open to the public.
Small square-footages might be in vogue, but would the occupants of tiny homes really pass up American-Dream spaciousness, given the chance?
The New York Times
If Americans viewed housing as what it essentially is, a consumable good, solutions to our ongoing affordability crisis might just present themselves. And we'd probably loosen a lot of land use regulations.
New York Times
For an "entitled generation," Millennials feel less and less entitled to one of the hallmarks of the American Dream: homeownership. But that doesn't mean the goal is permanently out of reach.
A new book by Courtney Martin called "The New Better Off" examines the shift in values among younger generations.
Guess which group is losing faith in the American Dream? Washington Post Wonkblog reporters Jim Tankersley and Scott Clement write on a Fusion 2016 Issues Poll released December 1 that surveys millennials on their chances for upward mobility.

Richard Reeves explains the factors that limit or assist social mobility for people born into the lowest economic quintile in American society.

The new American Dream will transform cities and towns in the 21st Century. To understand it, we have to grasp a few features of the previous American Dream.
Better Cities & Towns
Eric Jaffe of The Atlantic Cities talks with writer Leigh Gallagher about her new book, The End of the Suburbs: Where the American Dream Is Moving, and her opinions on the rapidly evolving American housing market.
The Atlantic Cities
Tight housing inventories, rising prices, and conservative mortgage lenders are preventing many would-be homeowners from buying their piece of the 'American Dream'. Michelle Higgins explains why this may actually be a good thing.
The New York Times
While conceding that suburbia, and home construction patterns, will change in the coming decades, a new report from Joel Kotkin argues that the "dream" of suburban American homeownership is alive and well and poised to remain relevant.
New Geography
A new survey has revealed that the housing bust has taken a toll on the fabled "American Dream," with the majority of respondents asserting that policies should be directed "to encourage rentals equally as much as home purchases."
Los Angeles Times
Richard Florida warns about America's increasing "economic Balkanization": a shrinking working class and the attendant swelling of low-wage service sector employees and the unemployed on the one hand, and the prosperous creative class on the other.
The Atlantic Cities
In an opinion piece for The New York Times, Allison Arieff considers the next phase of the "American Dream," as the notion of trading in the ideal of the home as fortress for the home as part of a larger whole gains widespread traction.
The New York Times
Jonathan Massey pens an essay in the journal Places, in which he probes the implications of homeownership as the vehicle by which the microeconomics of household finance and the macroeconomics of a globalized economy are mediated.
The American Dream is a concept that's had a rough go for the past few years. A new survey shows that nearly two-thirds of Americans don't think that dream can become reality.
The Atlantic
The younger generation of Americans will continue to rent rather than buy, predicts the Urban Land Institute.
Examiner LA
From the increase of city living to the decrease in vehicle miles traveled, a "new American Dream" is developing, according to Carol Coletta. But without cohesion, the benefits of these developments aren't likely to make a big impact.
Home ownership remains a major part of the American dream. But more and more people are beginning to question the wisdom of investing in a home and are leaning towards renting.

Lucifer gets a bad press... what evil is he responsible for?
We say: "Give the devil his due." But we don't. The devil took another pasting a couple of weeks back when, at Westminster, Gregory Campbell of the DUP asked Jo Swinson, Minister for Business, Innovation and Skills, whether she had any plans to regulate the sale of ouija boards. Ms Swinson said that she did not.
Almost before she had resumed her seat, I am told, Twitter and Facebook were ablaze with opportunist jokes and ribald speculation as to what dark doings had so discommoded Gregory. What did he know about the ongoing ouija board situation which the rest of us did not? Why had we been left in the dark - which is no place to be when dead souls are drifting across the dreamscape all aflutter?
The was by no means the only sign of devilish infestation in the vicinity of Londonderry East in recent times. A DUP spokesperson explained that a constituent had asked Gregory to bring the ouija board issue to the floor of parliament, which, like a good constituency man, he'd done. Interesting. But what was it that the constituent had a feeling about that had prompted him or her to seek Gregory's help in the first place? Regulation of the sale of ouija boards doesn't strike me as the sort of matter which arises casually in conversation in Londonderry East. Common seance tells us that something must have happened to set the process in motion. What this might be remains a mystery.
We might note in passing that it was from Binevenagh Mountain, near Limavady in the same constituency of Londonderry East, that a 6ft sculpture of Manannan Mac Lir disappeared in January in the middle of a storm-lashed night. A spokesman for the PSNI said that police were investigating a possible "religious aspect" of the disappearance. Or irreligious aspect, I imagine, which, when you think on it, means much the same thing.
Manannan Mac Lir is a sea god from Irish mythology, worshipped for a thousand years by the original pagan people of Ireland, before they were browbeaten and brainwashed into acceptance of an alien creed. Can we entirely rule out a link between the disappearance of the pagan deity and the reappearance of the ouija board issue? I think not. At a subsequent council meeting, Boyd Douglas (TUV) made the acute observation: "I was never too enthusiastic about (Manannan Mac Lir)...not very Christian." No indeed, that being sort of the point.
Then we have the Rev Graeme Orr of nearby Magheramason who was concerned about the Satanic connotations of the Burning Temple installation erected by US artist David Best at Corrody Hill just outside Derry and ceremonially burned on March 21, consuming in fire mementos and messages relating to those who had died in tragic and/or violent circumstances in the vicinity, and, hopefully, wafting the grief of the bereaved away in the swirl of the ritual smoke.
This remarkable series of eerie incidents reminded me of the occasion some years ago when I was dispatched by a colourful Sunday tabloid to check out a political crisis in Co Carlow sparked when a priest in the village of Bagenalstown spoke to a local paper of his fears that local teenagers had taken to "practising devil worship". He urged churchgoers to be "permanently vigilant for signs of the occult". The paper told that Fr Dowling had informed a "hushed" congregation that he had been made aware of unidentified teenage boys "walking in the area with a ouija board". Around the same time, 100 candles stolen from St Andrew's church had turned up "scattered in the grass in the park at Fair Green". Town Commissioner Paddy Kiely (Fianna Fail) "said he had seen for himself five blue signs of a sinister nature on a wall at the railway bridge".
Please log in or register with belfasttelegraph.co.uk for free access to this article.
The trip to Carlow was not to prove a journalistic triumph. Although ace photographer Liam O'Connor and myself spent three days scouring the area for signs of Satanism, divil the devil could we find. But the experience did sow a seed in my mind which blossomed again while pondering the mysteries of Londonderry East: why does the devil get such a bad press? You never hear a good word said about him.
And yet... You don't find followers of the devil descending on villages with bayonets in their teeth shouting, "The devil is great!" as they cut throats. You never hear war-mongers geeing up the population to support bombing some country back to the Stone Age by assuring them that, "We have the devil on our side." Look around the world, not just Carlow and Londonderry East, and ask yourself: Is it in the name of the devil or in the name of god that more misery is generated in this world?
Go on. Tell the truth and don't shame the devil.

The play-of-colour in
precious opals may exhibit every
prismatic colour from violet to red. It is produced by the
diffraction of white light at the spaces between tiny, uniformly sized silica
spheres that are arranged in an orderly, three-dimensional array. Depending on
the diameter of the silica spheres and the angle of the incident white light one
particular wavelength (prismatic colour) is reinforced by constructive
interference while the others are diminished by destructive interference. The
structure must consist of spheres
with a uniform diameter between 200 - 350 nm to be able to produce a play-of-colour
in the visible light range from violet to red (wavelength 400 - 700 nm).
Stacking faults in the silica sphere structure of opals produce many distinct
colour patches and determine the Pattern of
an opal's play-of-colour.
This phenomenon can be described by Bragg's law which is
originally the result of experiments into the diffraction of X-rays or neutrons
off crystal surfaces at certain angles:
Bragg angle adapted to the silica sphere structure of
precious opal producing a play-of-colour
Scanning electron micrograph
showing silica sphere
structure of
precious opal under 40000 x magnification
BRAGG'S LAW explains why opals with a
red play-of-color are usually able to show all other prismatic colours too (at
least when the stone is tilted and viewed from lower angles).
COMMON OPAL and POTCH do not exhibit
a play-of-colour because the silica spheres are not uniformly sized or not
arranged in an orderly pattern or because the spaces between the spheres are
completely filled with silica. Sometimes it may also happen that the spheres
are too small (< 200 nm) to produce a visible play-of-colour. In this case the
longest wavelengths that are reinforced are part of the UV light range and
therefore not visible to the human eye. If the spheres are too large (> 350 nm)
there is no good play-of-colour with upright lighting conditions since the
reinforced waves are located in the infrared range. However if the stone is
tilted the wavelength that is reinforced becomes shorter and may move to the visible
part of the spectrum so that - at first - red colours may start to appear.
PLAY-OF-COLOUR is described by the main, dominant colour
followed by the accompanying colours. If the play-of-colour exhibits three or
more different colours the main colour followed by the term MULTICOLOUR may be
used. For example Red-multicolour stones are the rarest and most sought-after
Furthermore the appearance of the play-of-colour is classed by

Buderim, Queensland, Australia
The Hotel Seashore is located in the perfect spot in Kanyakumari. The hotel is very new and fresh. The rooms are very generous in size and up to date with technology (flat screen TV). There is no internet in room and the TV drops out frequently, neither on which bothered me as Kanyakumari is a place to "un-plug"! The beds were beautifully set and very comfortable. The restaurant on the top (5th floor) have beautiful views, however lacks a little ambiance. Service was good, particularly from the gentleman in the Nike cap!
Room Tip:
We didn't pay the going rate, they're very amenable to deals out of holiday season

I feel like my little "three piece heart" has broken into a million tiny splinters today, and I don't think they'll be patched back together for a while now.
Carrie Fisher, passed away today and, like so many others, I'm grieving hard. Alan Rickman got me good, David Bowie made me sad, I still can't listen to Prince's "Purple Rain" and the thought of George Michael chokes me up.
But Carrie Fisher.
It's like someone I know and love dearly is gone. Yes, I grew up with her as Leia, but she was a lot more than that. She was a talented writer and a mental health champion. She overcame addiction and personal demons galore. Because of her, for the first time in my life, I'm comfortable with how I look and feel. That's a gift you can't begin to repay anyone for.
Carrie gave the bird frequently and did exactly as she pleased and took no prisoners in the process. I admired her so much for that and always will. If I can be even a fraction of the woman she was, I'll consider myself great.
Let 2016 be remembered as the year we lost an amazing soul, but let 2017 be the year we all appreciate ourselves for who we are and take life a little less seriously.

It was once said that if you love someone enough you should let them go. If they come back to you, they were always meant to be yours.
It's kind of bullshit.
My story was a little different than most. I was a little different than most.
Because in my story, if you love someone enough, you should first drop the gun.
I am so glad TM Frazier wrote this book. I was very interested in Rage when we met her in Soulless. She was mysterious and different and I wanted to know more about her. I love that this is a stand alone. Sometimes those are so much better. The angst, the drama, the romance…it's all on point in this book. Grab this one up whether you read Bear's books or not. Although I do think you should read King's books and Bear's books. I love those and they shouldn't be missed.
"I learned that just because I can kill, doesn't mean I don't have a heart.
I could have both the night and the day, the passion and the poison.
The Hope and the Rage"
Nolan is hot and such a great guy, I can't wait for you to meet him. But Smoke….SMOKE. I think he is my favorite from this book and I wanna call dibs! I know he did a shit thing but I can't help it.
Rage. I feel for her. I didn't realize she is so young and then seeing everything she went through and felt. Sigh…
Then there is that one thing. The thing I don't want to mention cause it will spoil stuff. I can't even TM Frazier. I. CAN'T. EVEN.
Just grab this one and read it. I insist.
