ISSOS Influences Career Choice For Students
Date: November 20, 2015
We offer Film Studies as an elective class at both St Andrews and Yale and love when our Alumni students tell us that their time at ISSOS influenced their lives in a positive way. Lexi St John attended ISSOS in 2008 and got in touch to tell us about her experience.
"The film elective at ISSOS changed my life - and I definitely knew it at the time! Growing up in LA, I was always interested in entertainment, but my film project at ISSOS was really my first stab at it. I remember during our first session with our teacher Marisha, my twin sister Liza and I were paired together to try to write down the different types of shots we could see in a clip from the movie The Aviator. My heart was racing, and we furiously started writing what we saw. When we turned in our list, Marisha carefully looked it over. Then she smiled at us and asked "What kind of pizza do you like?" After class, we enjoyed a private pizza party with our amazing teacher, and Liza and I have been working together ever since.
My film project at ISSOS was all-consuming and exhausting, and I had never been so happy. I had never smiled so much in my entire life. I remember staying up really late writing and rewriting shot lists, going location scouting and talking to locals, casting the perfect "actors" and rehearsing the scenes, learning how to use the really cool camera, pulling all-nighters in the editing room - it was so fulfilling and fun. Marisha treated us kids and the entire process very professionally. I remember thinking, "people do this as a career?? Like for money??" Liza and I were hooked. Our short films won 'Best Picture' and 'Best Cinematography' at the ISSOS screening, and our little globe trophies proudly sit on a shelf next to other awards for the newest films Liza and I have created together as [The St. John Sisters](http://www.thestjohnsisters.com). Our film projects at ISSOS gave us the experience and confidence we needed to choose entertainment as a career path. ISSOS helped me realize my true passion in life, and I will be forever grateful".
Lexi and Liza run a successful company creating entertaining film and media projects and have won many awards for their work.
Film continues to be a very popular elective at ISSOS, with just 5 places remaining in Session One St Andrews for 2016.

How does it form?
The historical and most common way of generating electricity isto rotate a copper coil inside magnets. Therefore, to create electricity, one must have the power to rotate the large copper coils within the magnetic field of the magnets. The most common way is with steam to drive the rotor. Waterfall from dams is also widely used, but comprises only a small percentage (and growing smaller) of the electrical generation. The power of the wind is increasingly used to turn the rotors to generate electricity, but it is still only a tiny percentage, and the wind only turns the rotor core about 20% of the time.
The latest figures from the U.S. Energy Information Agency tell us that 90.3% of our electricity in2006 was generated by turning the rotor core by steam. To get the steam to turn the rotor core, you have to boil water. Therefore, a fuel is used to heat the water to the boiling point, or beyond. For 88% of our electricity, the fuel to heat the water is either coal, natural gas, or a nuclear reaction.

Today was meant to be just the finals day of the world cup in Sunday River, USA but as the qualifications had to be cancelled yesterday because of fog, I should say it was finally cancelled after hours of waiting around to see if the fog cleared! They ran the whole competition today. It sure was a long day.
I qualified in 6th place this morning after my 2 runs putting me in a good spot for the finals this afternoon.
I had a good first heat against Susan moll from Austria, Deborah Anthonioz from France and Marni Yamada from the USA. After we got out of the gate and over the first feature I was in 3rd place but I passed into second after a few turns and held that position to the end getting me through to the semi finals.
My next heat was tough, I was against Deborah again as well as Lindsey Jacobellis and Maelle Ricker. I was in 4th going into the first turn but I did a nifty pass to get in front of Deborah around the second turn leaving Maelle and Lindsey in front after which I tried to get past one of them at the same time and keeping Deborah behind me. I got very close coming over the last 2 jumps catching up Lindsey but unfortunately the finish line came just a bit too fast for my liking as I had more speed and was gaining but didn't have the distance to pass into 2nd.
After that I was in the small final (to decide places 5 -8) I had my best start section of the day getting into 2nd into the first , soon after the girl in front made a small mistake allowing me chance to pass into the lead where I stayed all the way down to the end, winning the small final.
I finished in 5th and even though it's not the highest result I have got this season it does feel good to win the last heat of my day.
Next I am travelling back to Europe after being away for almost 2 months then we have a world cup in Spain around the 11th of March.

Stoneham world cup. In the final again.
Today was the world cup competition in Stoneham, Canada and I got into the final for the 3rd time this season!
My first heat was tough to say the least. I was against Lindsey Jacobellis (world number 1) Sandra Frei (world number 2) and a young Austrian girl.
I had 3rd lane choice so after the first two took the two middle gates I opted for the far left gate. We pulled out and were all together going into the first turn which was to the left. I took the inside line of course as that was the side I was on which got me into second place. Sandra had been to my right so had taken the higher line into the turn allowing her extra speed to overtake me over the next few rollers putting me in 3rd position. Then in the next left turn I cut down low to get in front of her then up high to steal the fast line. It worked great and I got in front then held that position the whole way down finishing in second and progressing through to the next round.
In my next heat I was against Lindsey, Deborah Anthonioz and Alexandra Jekova. I was in 3rd coming out of the first corner but in the same way Sandra had in the heat before I had taken the higher line allowing me to pass Deborah over the next set of rollers to place myself in second. Unlike Sandra though I managed to keep the other 2 behind me to finish in second again and progress though to the final!
The final itself didn't go too well for me with me crashing within the first 20 seconds or so resulting in me finishing 4th.
I am still happy though since I still have a heel injury from last month which hasn't had time to heal yet and is still giving me problems enough that I wasn't sure if I was even going to be able to compete here at all let alone get into the final.
Because of my result today I have moved back up to 6th in the world cup rankings with 3 more world cups to go this season.
Next up I have a couple of days off before we drive down to Sunday river in the USA where the next world cup is. I have never been there before so I am not sure what to expect but hopefully it should be a good race.

Off the mountain, but in good company
I am in Vancouver at the moment and am getting a bit fed up because my heel is still hurting from the injury I got in the X games a couple of weeks ago. Because I don't want to make it any worse I can't ride on it which means I am getting a bit bored that all I can do is gym work.
I do have nice place to stay though! I am staying with a family right by the water in Vancouver bay. The parents are called Jon and Roisin and they have 4 great kids, Rachel, Adam, Connor and James who are always running around which is delightful and it is great for me to be in a family environment instead of in a hotel like I normally am.
The family threw a cheese and wine party a few nights ago where I met a load of great contacts here in Vancouver including one of the people of VANOC who are the organizing committee for the Vancouver Olympics and the owner of Grouse mountain where I am now hoping to betraining in the run up to the Olympics. Thanks to all the Borrill family for letting me stay. (I even got my own room, which is massive and has a flat screen TV!)
Thanks again to the whole family, you are awesome.
I did get to go up to Whistler mountain the other day though, not to train on the mountain but to watch the Bob Skeleton world cup which was on up there. Bob Skeleton is where athletes slide down a bobsleigh track face first on a sledge. On this course they were going at speeds over 130 KPH!
I went to watch the British girls who were competing. One of them was Shelly Rudman who got silver in the last winter Olympics. The other girl was Amy Williams who trains at the English institute of sport in Bath in the summer the same as I do so we know each other quite well.
It was really fun to watch, I was a bit restricted from where on the track I could get to because I couldn't walk far with my heel so I watched from the finish area which turned out to be the best place to be.
The best part about going to watch was that Amy won silver! It's really great for her because it's the same track there as it will be for the Olympics next year so getting a medal here is a very good sign for her chances.
I have another 4 days of rest for my heel before official training starts on the course for the next world cup snowboard cross competition which is being held on Cypress mountain where the snowboarding events are for the Olympics next year.

It came with everything you needed and I think it took less than an hour to put together. I did not have the leaf stamp so I originally put it together plain which was still really cute after I sponged the leaf edges with soft suede ink. But stamping with the leaf stamp does add an additional detail. Love the bell at the tip. The hardest part was crinkling the hat body to make the curve with the body of the hat. I think it's super Cute!
I did use all the fringe to make it full but only used one of each leaves and they give you three packs of each leaves in all the different colors. I have so many leaves left over that I am planning a leaf banner.
I used cajon craze to stamp the leaves on the different diecut cardstocks or soft suede depending on the cardstock color.
I probably have enough supplies to make another 10 more cards at least. What a deal!

Hi Dina,
I really do like him - he's so not the typical saint but very down-to-earth :)
Thanks for telling me about Justin Welby - just looked up the story at the Guardian ... http://www.guardian.co.uk/uk/2012/nov/25/justin-welby-father-marriage-secret

I should learn more about Ignatius.
Funny how the Guardian mentions the Jewish roots just in one little sentence.
Welby had a difficult start in life.

The thing I like about Ignatius is that he believed God would inter-act with people if they wanted him to and that the inter-action could take place outside of church and ritualized prayers. The church obviously doesn't emphasize that bit about him ;) If you're ever interested, he wrote a short bio about himself (he refers to himself in it in the 3rd person) and it's online in a few places, like here ... http://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/24534
Yeah, about Welby, I only knew of him when the Anglicans started looking for a new boss - he was mostly notable for having been an oil executive once, I think. He's a little too conservative for me, but he seems like a good person and he must have a good character to have managed with such a challenging childhood. Maybe he wants to learn more about his Jewish roots and that's why the visit to Israel?

I had been playing Starfox 64 all day and finally got to Venom using only the red (difficult) path. After defeating Starwolf, I began circling the vent that would take me to the battle with Andross. I circled once, twice, three times, but instead of entering the vent I just continued to circle. My game had glitched right before the final boss. I was doomed to circle the surface of Venom FOR ETERNITY.-Caldwell Tanner
I was making my way through the final Castle in The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time and died while battling in the Fire Barrier. Through either (a) a brilliantly wicked trick of the Evil conqueror of Hyrule or (b) some kind of bug undetected by the worthless troglodytes at Nintendo, I was brought back to life without my hover boots the only item protecting me from the intense heat of the fire chamber's lava floor. Thus was Link stuck in an endless loop of re-spawning and instantly burning to death.-Patrick Cassels
I preordered the original Rock Band at a national chain of game retailer who will remain nameless. I never preorder games, but there was a lot of hype. I knew exactly which songs I wanted to play first (Foreplay/Long Time, Reptilia
) and left work early to pick up that enormous box. When I got there, the employees informed me that I had placed a preorder for just the game itself, not the package of the game and the instruments you actually need to play. They then explained that I couldn't get the package because they were all set aside for preorders, and I didn't get to play Rock Band for an entire weekend.-Jeff Rubin
The original Everquest was addictive but incredibly frustrating. Before the "Plane of Knowledge" allowed you to easily travel all over the world, players had to take long boat rides across the ocean to get to other continents. Once the boat left the port and got to the ocean zone there was a brief load screen. One time, the game glitched as I was "zoning" and I appeared on the other side WITHOUT THE BOAT. I drowned. Hard. -Anonymous
I brought my entire collection of PS2 games to college, including my drug of choice at the time, Burnout 3: Takedown. I had made considerable progress unlocking cars and tracks until an Albanian kid on my floor, whom I allowed into my room in an ill-advised attempt to be social, erased over my save file with his own. Furious, I spent the next week playing nothing but Burnout, regaining the progress I had lost. Finally satisfied that I had restored what was taken from me, I went to class on Monday and came back to find the same kid sitting in my room playing Burnout. He had accidentally erased my save file again.-Owen Parsons
The game was Final Fantasy VII. I was on a mission to get all characters to level 99 by fighting monsters in the Northern Crater. After about 8 hours of leveling, I was attacked from behind by 2 "Magic Pot" enemies that were invulnerable unless you used an elixir on them. Before I could do anything, they used "Steal" to take Cid's ultimate weapon. The only way to get it back was to defeat them
.but I was all out of elixirs. In a decision I regret to this day, I saved the game so that I wouldn't lose 8 hours of experience. Cid never hit for max damage again.-Brian Murphy

As usual, the Flyers tried to soft-pedal news about defenseman Nicklas Grossmann, telling us during the Rangers' 4-2 win last night that he left after the completion of the first period with a lower-body injury.
That was followed up by a tweet from Howard Eskin later in the evening which revealed it was in fact a groin issue, something picked up only after the game by CSN Philly's Tim Panaccio.
Further sources have picked up on the news, and it is expected that Grossmann will see an unnamed doctor and have an MRI today to see what, if any, damage had occurred.

Our health consultants in HLSP are helping curb the spread of HIV/AIDS in southeast Asia by challenging drug user behaviour.
In cities across the world poverty is accompanied by problems of drug use, crime and prostitution. "Hand in hand with drug injection go HIV infection and AIDS and a lot of people on drugs go into sex work to feed their habit," comments HLSP programme manager Gordon Mortimore. "In places where there are lots of visits to sex workers you get two very high risk groups crossing over. It raises a real danger of HIV jumping from a sub-group into the general population."
Gordon is leading a major eight-year project to curb drug use and the spread of HIV in southwest Asia. Now in its second year, the HIV/AIDS Asia Regional Programme (HAARP) is setting out to firstly encourage drug users to stop injecting and then to stop taking drugs at all. HAARP is funded by Australian Agency for International Development, AusAID.
"Rather than saying to people 'don't use drugs', we accept the situation that people do use them. Instead we try to educate people not to share needles and not to inject. Injecting, and especially needle sharing, carries the highest risk of infection." The programme encourages users to substitute methadone for heroin. Because methadone is prescribed, substitution brings users onto the right side of the law and helps with social reintegration.
"The ultimate step is stabilisation of the individual and reintegration into society. There's evidence from across the world that rehabilitating drug users has beneficial knock-on effects. They become employable and are able to hold down jobs, which reduces crime." The approach, described as 'harm reduction', contrasts with the typical police position of zero tolerance. It was first pioneered in Australia and the UK, and has been officially recognised in India.
But the project faces obstacles: "In most countries there's a very strong contradiction between the treatment of HIV and drug law enforcement, which takes a zero tolerance approach, making it difficult for infected drug users to get medical help. One of our aims is to bring health and law enforcement agencies together so they take a more pragmatic approach to substance abuse," Gordon says.
HAARP works in partnership with governments at local and national level, and liaises closely with women's organisations and drug user support groups where they exist. The project encourages neighbouring countries to share information about what works.

That's why this is called the Carolinian zone of Canada, sort of a straight line between Toronto and Goderich, south is the Carolinian zone.
The Carolinian was the most moderate of the company, giving his attention chiefly to the game, and throwing out his one remark concerning the worrying of Greeley with an air of simply civil assent to the general meaning of the conversation, as an exchange of anti-abolition sentiments.
The ecoregion is the most northward distribution of many 'Carolinian' species in North America.

So when I saw this scarf on ASOS I couldn't but love it immediately! I already have a spinning globe pendant that's one of my favourite charm necklaces, but an actual map on a scarf? Amazing.
|Warehouse at ASOS, £22
Then I had a google and came across these beautiful, but much more expensive chiffon map scarves. Though I think that limiting the designs to Europes, the States and Britain is somewhat parochial - especially given the rise of the Asian designer consumer!

Actually, these map scarves from Korea are my favourites of the bunch I think - I love the range of colours and the generous size.

So I made this necklace yesterday morning - it's my own creation, but it was inspired by these three necklaces from Anthropologie.
I love them all individually- but used the beads I had in my stash. It's pretty simple to make, so here are just a few pictures to guide you along. Two strands of wire - one long and one short - separate until the last four beads.
Loop it through the jump ring, back through the crimp ring and the spacer.
Crimp the bead, then stick the wire back through the beads.
Tie a ribbon around each jump ring - then tie them together.
So you don't always have to copycat something exactly.
Just observing color combination and structure can be inspiring.
happy beading,

Ferguson police chief's wife calls African-Americans 'feral' in Facebook post, group claims
The hacking collective known as Anonymous is trying to shine a light on the roots of the racial violence in a St. Louis suburb.
On Aug. 13, the group published hours of alleged police dispatch tapes from the day Ferguson, Mo., police shot and killed unarmed teen Michael Brown.
That same day, one of a handful of Twitter accounts claiming to be associated with the Anonymous group posted comments they say came from the wife of Ferguson Police Chief Tom Jackson.
Speaking of people in Ferguson, a woman identified as Catherine Nardi wrote: "They are feral and violent. They murder each other. They murder their unborn babies. They murder white people. They hate police officers and murder some of them, even black ones. They destroy neighbors and entire cities with garbage and drugs. They live their lives off the hard-earned tax dollars of other Americans. Yet somehow they are victims. What insanity is that?"
The comments have been retweeted more than 5,400 times.
But the person in the Facebook message, Catherine Nardi, is not the wife of the Ferguson police chief.
Nardi lives in St. Petersburg, Fla., not Missouri, according to public records. She is married to Henry Nardi, who is not the police chief of Ferguson. We reached out to Nardi via Facebook, but she did not respond. A woman answering a phone number associated with her hung up on a reporter. (Nardi removed her Facebook profile after this fact-check first published.)
According to the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, Jackson's wife is named Patricia, not Catherine. We were unable to reach Jackson's wife.
As for the specific words in the message, we did not find them on Nardi's Facebook page or anywhere else.
Our ruling
A post from a group claiming that it is associated with Anonymous said that the wife of the Ferguson, Mo., police chief said African-Americans in Ferguson "are feral and violent," among other things.
The tweet references a Facebook post that is not from Jackson's wife. The woman in the picture lives in Florida not Missouri.
We rate this claim Pants on Fire.

A Practical Overview of Descriptive and Predictive Techniques
This book was originally put together as I taught the the content to two very different audiences. One was a group of 1st-year Executive MBA students. This group was not particularly technical, but very good at applying the concepts taught to their contexts. The other was a group of Master of Information Systems Management students who had gone straight from their undergrad degrees to the MISM program. They were very tech-savvy, but they had a bit more trouble applying the concepts because of their lack of industry experience.
This forced me to develop the book in a way that it could be adapted easily to either audience. As a result, you'll notice that some chapters may not apply to non-techincal audiences, but they will be perfect for IS, IT, or computer science students. Some checkpoint assignments have additional components for technical studnets and even the final project can be adapted to either audience.
Data analytic techniques are changing daily and, thus, requiring academic curriculums to constantly evolve to maintain relevance. Because of this, paper-based books full of text-based instruction are inadequate because they cannot keep up with the rate of change. Therefore, the purpose of this online book is to teach--through practice-based video tutorials--the latest and most common techniques for both descriptive and predictive data analytics. We use currently industry-leading tool, Tableau, to teach dashboard design and story telling which describes the current state of an organization based on measurable data. However, the supreme value of data is in it's ability to predict the future. This is also the most difficult and risky directive. Therefore, we begin by teaching basic methods in Excel for multiple regression and the assumptions of linear regression. Afterward, the bulk of the course is spent covering more advanced algorithms and techniques using an industry-leading tool for predictive analysis: Microsoft Azure Machine Learning Studio. We chose these tools, first, because they are mainstream industry tools that you are likely to use across a variety of industries, but second, because both come with free versions for students :)

Bigbank improves bank statement analysis speed 100x with Nordigen.
Bigbank tested Nordigen categorisation engine in two areas:
to what extent Nordigen categorisation engine can decrease the time it takes to manually analyse a bank statement
to what extent Nordigen categorisation engine is more precise at identifying risk-critical transactions vs. credit specialists
Bigbank had the following results:
Nordigen was able to decrease the time it took to manually analyse a bank statement from 15 minutes to less than 10 seconds (a 100x improvement)
Number of risk-critical transactions identified falsely:
- credit risk specialists: 30%
- Nordigen categorisation engine: 2%
(a 15x improvement)
Business value:
with thousands of bank statements analysed per months, the speed improvement allows Bigbank to potentially save hundreds of hours of manual work
the improvement in precision allows Bigbank to decrease defaults that occur due to missed risk-critical information

Basketball: The Physics of the 3-Point Shot
21-Mar-2014 1:00 PM EDT
Available for logged-in reporters only
Pop Culture
KEYWORDSBasketball, Doug McDermott, Ethan Wragge, three points, 3-pointer, Physics
Newswise — OMAHA, Neb. – He may not see very many basketball players in his classroom, but Creighton University physics professor Gintaras Duda, Ph.D., says they are instinctual physicists because of what it takes to make the perfect shot on the court, particularly the 3-pointer.
What makes the perfect 3-pointer? Well, there is the angle the player takes on the 3-point line and the arc of the ball, which is the path the basketball flies from the time it leaves the shooter's hand until it arrives at the basket.
According to Duda and the research he has read, the lowest arc is 33 degrees for even a hope of making a 3-point shot, but with an arc of 45 degrees, a speed of just under 20 miles per hour and two revolutions per second of spin, at 20.9 feet from the basket, the player has the makings of the perfect 3-point shot.
While some people say gravity is the only thing affecting the ball once it is in the air, Duda is not so sure.
In the book The Physics of Basketball, the author, John Fantanella, explains the Magnus effect, the backspin which gives the ball a little bit of lift allowing for the slowest possible speed and a less violent rebound if it hits the backboard or rim and may even allow the ball to go in the net.
"I've heard about it in baseball, you know the curve ball that pitchers throw to curve one way or the other over the plate, but I really didn't realize how important it is in basketball," said Duda. "On certain shots, like the free throw and the 3-pointer, you want a slower speed on the ball for that soft shot that has a better chance of landing in the basket than a faster ball with no spin."
In other words, avoiding the brick, that shot with the distinctive sound that lets you know the ball is not going in at all.
It takes practice for the player to find that perfect shot. After all, consistency equals reliability, but by finding that perfect shot, the player has found the right speed, the right angle of approach, and the perfect arc of the ball.
Creighton All-American Doug McDermott has that consistency. McDermott, who ranks among the top college scorers of all time, shot 45 percent from behind the arc. Teammate Ethan Wragge is the team's leading 3-point shooter, hitting 47.3 from 3-point.
Duda, the 2013 U.S. Professor of the Year, said he will be watching March Madness with renewed interest and understanding this weekend, and he's hoping the Bluejays get an A in physics for netting 3-point shots.
Watch here as Duda breaks down the perfect 3-pointer.
Gintaras Duda, Ph.D., is an associate professor of physics in the College of Arts and Sciences at Creighton University. He was named 2013 U.S. Professor of the Year by the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching and the Council for Advancement and Support of Education (CASE). Duda holds a bachelor's degree in physics from Villanova University and a doctorate from the University of California, Los Angeles.

Much has been made of these newfanged "morality" style quests. Rohan, for instance, railed long and hard against them, and more recently, little "death by fire" gnomey has had some… issues with the whole deal.
My question is this: where and how, precisely, does the whole idea of "morals" translate to the game?
The real me would probably think twice (or three or four times) before killing another person, would never intentionally torture someone, and most certainly wouldn't mindlessly slaughter hundreds of annoying things (as much as the real me would like to).
The in game me, the Euripedes, the terrifying mage inside me, wouldn't hesitate to do any of those things.
Sentence a tribe of Furbolg to death? Sure thing!
Extinguish the leaders of the Scarlet Monastery? Done and done!
Slaughter dozens of alliance children? FOR THE HORDE!
Kill fifty elves on a whim? It'll be fun!
Is it because I'm a Horde player, and pretty much always have been? I haven't really heard of any purist Horde players voicing any concerns over these torture quests.
Take the Kaloo… Kalwak… Kazoo… Walrus people. All those babies collected? By now, we all know they're being cooked. Pike felt dirty and refused to ever do the quest again once she hit exalted.
By comparison, His Excellency Ratshag complains that they won't share the recipe with him.
Come to think of it… every one of Ratter's characters probably wouldn't even bat an eye at killing puppies, except Kinnavavavoom or whatever her name is. I mean, I knew plate was revealing, but damn, that's some mighty fine paladin bubbles, if ya catch my drift. You can Seal of Command me any day, baby.
Where was I?
Ahh yes. Rats wants to cook them, Dangermouse would bake them without a second though, Ellspeth would think the whole situation delightful, Alayda's practically an outright cannibal, and Galertruby… well… Galertruby.
It could be the fact that Horde have… well… somewhat looser morals than the other races. C'mon, the entire faction wages war and kills as a freaking hobby. I don't really think most of 'em would consider eating children and torture as odd, let alone a morally bankrupt option.
Daily Itinerary of a Horde Member
- Wake up
- Kill something
- Eat it
- Pick pretty flowers
- Slaughter alliance
- Blow something up
- Burn something down
- Lunch
Even if you don't really roleplay that much, or ever, is it just "easier" to do questionable things on a Horde character? Even the Tauren really don't have doubts about committing genocide.
Could it be a class thing instead? Druids, for instance, would probably have some difficulty needlessly slaying random animals, whereas warlocks would kill all the cute fuzzy creatures on the way as a point of pride.
Maybe it's both?
Paladins probably have plenty moral obligations and a very clear sense of right and wrong. Most mages think the whole "moral" thing boring at best. What the crap does fire care about good and evil? It's just fire. It burns stuff.
When the Dalaran mage said that he took an oath that prevents him from carrying out torture, my first thought was "Ha! More for me, then". Upon further reflection, I realized that the Dalaran mage was basically a coward.
He was unwilling to do what needed to be done. When it was down to the wire, when we needed that information to win the day, he couldn't do it. His pathetic moral codes prevented him from doing what was necessary.
Enter the troll mage, not only perfectly willing to do the job, but wholly enjoying the entire thing.
This is sort of way out there philosophical thinking, but what if… what if this is the entire purpose of the Horde?
It comes up every now and then in novels and some TV shows. A group of good guys, going about saving people and saving the day, always has that one guy… that one guy that "accidentally" kills prisoners. The one that, when given the order "shoot to stun" shoots to kill.
Without exception, this guy is always needed. The band of good guys capture a bad guy, and of course none of them can kill the prisoner. Maybe they just can't, maybe they think he deserves to be tried in a court of law.
So they drag the bad guy around with him, keeping a guard posted to watch him, sharing their food, water, and even medical supplies with it, even if they really can't afford to do any of that.
Enter that one guy, who says "Yeah, I'll guard him tonight", and accidentally stabs the prisoner in the head. Repeatedly. With bullets.
Of course, the rest of the good guys are royally pissed off. Except now, they're so much better off because the prisoner is dead.
Perhaps, in the grand scheme of things, this is the purpose of the Horde. To commit the dark acts that no one else is willing to go through with.
Present a member of the Alliance with a morally ambiguous task, and they fall to pieces.
Present a member of the Horde with a morally ambiguous task, and the task is done immediately, efficiently, and properly, with as much bloodshed as needed (and often more).
The Death Knights seem to be the only exception to this. Alliance DK's are brutal and vicious, as ruthless killers should be.
What if Arthas attempts to redeem himself? What if, halfway through the fight, he breaks down, begs for mercy, saying over and over again "Jaina… I'm sorry… I'm so sorry…"
What would you do?
If you answered "Put his sorry ass down while his concentration is broken", congratulations, you've done what must be done.
Thankfully, most of the overall wars have been relatively light on morality. Demons? Undead? A hive mind under the control of an old god who's only aim is to enslave everything? Not a whole lot of moral ambiguity there.
"Arise, C'thulhu, and emb – OH SWEET MOTHER OF ZEUS THE MOON!"
I don't even remember what this post was initially about. Oh well.

How many blog posts in the blogosphere start with "Well its been a while since", or "I have not posted in a while", or something along the lines of not posting in a very long time. 🙂 I will skip that and just jump into a post.
First up! I moved the blog from the main root domain to a sub domain of blog.sociallysour.org.. I have done this and moved it back a few times over the years. For now I am back to the idea of having the blog on its own subdomain. The root domain will be a splash type page to feed the other things I do. I have been active in using GNUSocial, think of it as a decentralized twitter you can host yourself. Most people use Mastodon and don't host there own instances.. But I like to tinker, so using the FSF less popular GNUSocial was my cup of tea. Plus it has way less dependency's than Mastodon and is still able to exchange with the other people in the "Fediverse". If anyone cool would like a gnu.sociallysour.org account drop me a line and I will hook you up. I have deleted or stopped using most all social networking sites that I do not host myself or control the content.
In other news Oct 17th 2018 Canada was the 2nd and largest country in the world thus far to legalize recreational cannabis. I am happy to say that the country is still standing and people are not stoned and passed out int he streets (any more than normal).. It's an interesting roll (lol) out in Canada that each Province did its own thing.. Places like Quebec as far as I know do not allow people to grow there own at home. All Provinces but Ontario have physical stores, and Ontario only has online mail ordering. With all the differences it will be interesting to see which places change and move to other systems over time. Ontario is going to get physical stores in 6 months, but they will be privatized stores and not an offical OCS Store.
I think that's it for now.. See if I can remember to check back here and post something more often now. But you can always check out my micro blogging at https://gnu.sociallysour.org/hurt138

In a place hostile to Christianity, the church is small yet growing steadily. In Northern Iraq, called Kurdistan by the locals, the Kurdish church is reaching out to a hurting community of orphans and widows.
This area, known as the Freedom Martyr's Village, was established by the Kurdistan Regional Government as a refuge for those families whose relatives died at the hand of Saddam.
While these families have new homes, housing continues to be a problem for the thousands of Kurds returning to the area. Squatter homes surround Freedom Martyr's Village and serve as a reminder of the continued desperation of the Iraqi people.
Few Western aid organizations have been able to help, but in March 2009, the local Iraqi government gave World Orphans an acre of land in the center of the village.
World Orphans is making that land accessible to the people in and around the Freedom Martyr's Village by constructing The Refuge – a community center that meets the individual needs of the widows and orphans in this region.
Construction on the community center is more than halfway complete. Watch the video below to see what an impact your gift could make in Northern Iraq.

Give $44 a month to this project
Give a one time gift toward completing construction of The Refuge.

This remains one of my favourite fascinating events in the Arctic. University of Delaware professor in oceanography Andreas Muenchow, the Nares Strait go-to guy, posted the following on his Icy Seas blog:
Formation of Nares Strait Ice Bridges in 2014
Darkness and cold covers North Greenland, Ellesmere Island as well as Nares Strait, the waterway that connects these two inhospitable places. And despite the darkness of the polar night, I can see that three beautiful arches made of ice connect Greenland to Canada. It is possible to walk across water, if the water is frozen. Stuck to land, ice arches or ice bridges shut down ice motion while the ocean under the ice keeps moving. Lets have a peek at how this looked from space yesterday:
The colors above show the temperature that satellite sensors "see" at the surface of the ice. Red is warm, blue is cold, and grey is land, but "warm" here is still below the freezing point of sea water near -2 degrees Celsius, so even the red or "hot" spots are covered by ice. The 300 deep ocean in Nares Strait generally flows from north to south without trouble under the ice, but just behind the fixed arching ice bridges, it sweeps the newly formed thin ice away to the south. The "warm" spots that form to the south of each ice arches have their own stories:
