Ian and I were strongly... encouraged... to perform at a comedy music night at The Fyxx hosted by Melanie Dahling, and so we wrote this one-off rap to perform
My name is Ian
And Im rappin about
How this crazy b****
Got us all freaked out
I was sitting at home
Just minding my biz
Playing N.E.S.
He loves his old school vidz
Got a Facebook message
Saying theres this show
Was it a music show?
No, a comedy show!
We said, We aint comics
This idea is whack!
How can we perform
On a line-up this stacked?
We got Andrew Lizotte
The Woody Allen non-Jew
The Brothers Greene
A family hip-hop crew
Of course theres Timothy Gray
Yeah hes my Oscars bud
You can call him T-Bhagg
Hes a white boy thug
Theres Mar-o-sti-ca
Shes so hot-sti-ca
You all be laughing at her jokes
Yeah theres no stopping her
We got our boy Jon Wilson
With his funny songs
Jesses got the Thrashers
Rock you all night long
Dont forget Ryan Ash
From the City of Champions
Hell make you lose your sh**
Better take you an Ambien
Were forgetting one person
Oh yeah, who could it be?
She made us do this show
Its f***** Mel-a-nie!
What was she thinking?
Dont know how to write jokes
I did comedy once...
But were both musical blokes
She was drunk (Vegas drunk!)
Getting up in our face
Telling us what to do
Putting us in our place
We really had no choice
She came at you with a knife!
She said shed cut this pretty face
Man, we were scared for our lives
Now things got really bad
When she was haunting my dreams
It was my own Nightmare on Elm Street
Starring Melanie Dahling...
She was freakin me out
She was makin me pout, she said
You better do this show
Or Ill be knocking you out!
So here we are
We wrote this little ditty
From Ian Bawa
And your boy P. Litty
Make sure you all beware
Never to cross that chick
Cause shell f*** you up
If you dont play at the Fyxx
Lyrics by Paul Little & Ian Music by mrcharacters (2012)

Hi, loves. I have decided to do a short post before leaving for Bali simply because I haven't been able to blog as often as I wished. My schedule these days are pretty hectic, with events and activities back-to-back. As much as I enjoyed having my calendar filled, I just don't have the time to blog. It's pretty hard on me as I do look forward to blogging. I guess that is one of my vices. 🙂
Anyway, I'll off to Bali tomorrow morning around 10ish. A not-so-early flight but guess what, I'll have to be at the airport at least two hours earlier. Sighs, in the end I have set my alarm to 6 am. Nevertheless, I'm already on the holiday mood!
Wow! What a breath-taking sight! Though I don't think I'm coming to this beach. I just Googled Bali and this came up.
Everyone knows that Bali is famous for its beaches but my parents planned the trip in a way that we won't actually get to laze around the beach. Well, logically thinking if I wanted to laze around the beach I would go to places like Redang, Pangkor and all. So instead, they got this tight, packed with visits schedule planned out. I'm looking at their itinerary and I see places like QWK Cultural Park, Sukawati, Uluwatu Temple…. and the list goes on.
The Statue of Wisnu at the QWK Cultural Park.
Haha, I think I'm really excited to visit Bali now. I mean I have heard and read so much about it and now I'm finally going there! Can't wait, can't wait! Just thinking about all those amazing pictures opportunities I'll have there is already making me go, "CAN I TAKE THE FIRST FLIGHT TO BALI NOW?!" 😀
" Hooray! Hooray! It's A Holi-Holiday,
What a world of fun for everyone, holi-holiday,
Hooray! Hooray! It's A Holi-Holiday,
Sing a summer song, skip along, holi-holiday,
It's a holi-holiday."

Since the beginning of the armed Sunni uprising against the Alawite Assad regime in Syria in 2011, a growing number of foreign fighters from across the Middle East (and indeed, around the world) have eagerly flocked to join the underdog rebels on the battlefield. Any serious effort to study this motley crew of foreign fighters is inherently complex—and has only been made more so by the Bismarckian political alliances of the actors involved, the conflicting propaganda value of the issue to these various actors, and the somewhat secretive nature of the fighters themselves.

Mark Reynolds gets revenge on Jarrod Parker
The Cleveland Indians had already hit a pair of solo shots off Jarrod Parker in the first inning of Monday night's game between the A's and the Tribe. So when the Oakland starter beaned Mark Reynolds in the head later in the frame, Parker was issued a warning by home plate umpire Angel Hernandez. Reynolds took his base without incident but wasn't pleased with getting hit in the noggin. "I don't mind being hit -- at all," he said. "I'm hoping that was a fastball he tried to overthrow. He's a really good pitcher and he let one get away from him." But Reynolds added, "I was on a mission right there to hit a ball as far as I could."
Reynolds got his chance to avenge the scary moment in the fifth. With the score 3-1 Indians after Asdrubal Cabrera's second solo blast, Reynolds launched the first pitch of the at-bat an estimated 457 feet to the area of Progressive Field occupied by longtime drummer John Adams. The mammoth home run to left field was all the seven-year big-league veteran needed. "That's kind of payback for hitting me," said Reynolds. Cleveland eventually won 7-3.
[Fantasy Baseball 2013: There's still time to join a league today!]
Manu Ginobili hit the game-winning three with 1.2 seconds left in double overtime as the Spurs escaped Game 1 of their Western Conference Seminfinals series with the Warriors, 129-127. Stephen Curry had a game-high 44 points in the loss.
And Manny Pacquiao is set to get back in the ring Nov. 24 (Nov. 23 in the U.S.) The boxing legend will fight Brandon Rios in Macau, China in a 12-round welterweight bout.

I'm so excited for the second book in the Library Jumpers series to come out next week! I mean, these books are the ULTIMATE books for book lovers. Guardian of Secrets is the sequel to last year's bestselling Thief of Lies and sounds absolutely captivating. There's nothing better than a good book about books and libraries, so be sure to mark those TBRs, friends!
Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted by Breaking the Spine. Be sure to check out their blog and share the upcoming books your excited about with us each Wednesday!
Guardian of Secrets by Brenda Drake
Being a Sentinel isn't all fairytales and secret gardens.
Sure, jumping through books into the world's most beautiful libraries to protect humans from mystical creatures is awesome. No one knows that better than Gia Kearns, but she could do without the part where people are always trying to kill her. Oh, and the fact that Pop and her had to move away from her friends and life as she knew it.
And if that isn't enough, her boyfriend, Arik, is acting strangely. Like, maybe she should be calling him "ex," since he's so into another girl. But she doesn't have time to be mad or even jealous, because someone has to save the world from the upcoming apocalypse, and it looks like that's going to be Gia.
Maybe. If she survives.

About the Author
Brenda Drake is a New York Times bestselling author of Thief of Lies (Library Jumpers #1), Guardian of Secrets (Library Jumpers #2), Touching Fate (Fated Series #1), and Cursing Fate (Fated Series #2). She grew up the youngest of three children, an Air Force brat, and the continual new kid at school. She hosts workshops and contests for writers such as Pitch Wars and Pitch Madness on her blog, and holds Twitter pitch parties on the hashtag, #PitMad.

The aesthetically designed Al Jahili Fort is one of the most historic structures in United Arab Emirates. It is a great specimen of the local military architecture. The fort is popular for being the largest castles in Al Ain and holds great importance as it associated with the history of the Al Nahyan Family.
The development of the fort started in the year 1891 and concluded in 1898, under the supervision of Sheikh Zayed the First. The fort location was ideal for military as well as residential purposes. The fort was built to have easy access to water resources and fertile farming land. The place was used as a refuge by the Al Nahyan family form the humid coast of Abu Dhabi. The fort was political refuge in times of uproar as well.
Originally, the Al Jahili fort had two building:
- A square courtyard spread over approximately 1,300 sq. meters. It had 6.5 meters tall walls
- A separate round tower spread over 50 meters. It was towards southwest and away from the castle. It had four concentric tiers as well
The design of the tower is of importance, as it resembles the architecture of one of the towers of Bronze Age, unravelled in the Hili area. In addition, the courtyard has three corners occupied by small towers. Each tower is 12.5 meter high. The northeastern corner of the two-storey building was used for receptions of the Sheikh.

Chinese traditional medicine
1-minute read
Traditional Chinese medicine is based on ancient Chinese practices and includes acupuncture, tai chi, herbal medicines and various other mind body practices.
Chinese medicine treatments such as acupuncture (if performed with sterile, single use needles), qi gong, and tai chi are generally considered safe. Some herbs used in Chinese herbal products may be safe but others may not be. Some can interact with medicines and have serious side effects. Always inform your doctor if you are taking Chinese herbal products.
For most conditions there are not enough clinical trials to know if traditional Chinese medicine methods are effective.

Vegetarian Pho
I've been wanting to try making pho at home for a loooong time but had some fears. What if the broth wasn't right?! What things should I add?! One day when I was feeling brave, we went on a mission to the large Asian grocery store here. I had to find fresh pho noodles, mushroom balls, maybe some sort of special tofu, and a fun leafy green. (I love the variety of greens at Asian grocery stores - my favourite is pea tips, though we ended up trying pea shoots in the pho.)
This is just a simple bowl of vegetarian pho, but the feeling of accomplishment and excitement made it a really happy and magical experience. Sometimes I can get way too excited about food. I haven't had pho in a really long time, so I wasn't sure how "accurate" the broth was (though I knew it was amazing), but E said that it tasted like pho should. Pho success! I got the recipe from Leng, and then modified it a bit according to what we had. So I've mostly kept her original recipe and written in my notes.
If this sounds good, you might also like:
Thai Coconut Corn Stew
Pad Thai
"The" Peanut Sauce
Udon Noodles with Peanut Sauce and Seitan
Soba Noodles with Zucchini Ribbons
Leng and Long's Pho
Adapted from A Fat Cat Created A Vegetarian
Serves 2
1/2 small yellow onion, chopped
1 tbsp oil
1/2 cup finely chopped mushrooms, any kind will do
8 cups of vegetable broth
3-5 star anise pods
1 tsp of whole cloves
1 cinnamon stick
2-3 Tbsp. of vegetarian fish sauce (It would still taste fine if you don't have this) (Ashley note: I think I added a bit of soy sauce because I didn't have vegetarian fish sauce.)
Ginger, just cut off a small "leg" the sizes vary all the time. Cut piece in half (Ashley note: I used 1 tbsp minced ginger.)
1/2 pound of extra firm tofu, cubed
Mushroom balls, optional
16 oz package of fresh pho noodles
2 to 3 big handfuls of leafy greens (ie. spinach, pea tips)
Topping plate:
1 lime, cut into wedges
1/4 small yellow onion, very thinly sliced
Slices of green onions
Mint & basil sprigs
Jalapeno slices
Mung bean sprouts
Black pepper, hoisin & Sriracha hot sauce
(Ashley note: We only added lime, yellow onion and hot sauce.)
Heat oil in a large saucepan on high heat, add chopped onions and mushrooms. Stir. Cook for 5-10 minutes.
Add vegetable broth, star anise, cloves, cinnamon, vegetarian fish sauce and ginger. Stir. Bring broth to a boil. Add tofu cubes & mushroom balls. Bring to a boil. While soup is coming to a boil distribute each large serving bowl with an even amount of pho noodles. About a handful for each person, you're not going to use the whole package. (Ashley note: We used 1/2 the package for the 2 of us.) These noodles are super long, but do not cut them.
Once soup comes to a boil turn off heat, remove star anise and ginger pieces (if not using minced ginger). Ladle soup directly onto noodles in prepared bowls. Serve with topping plate and sauces. Serve hot!
Note: Cover the noodles in your bowl completely, so that it will not become soggy as you eat it.

Last year I reported my experiences attending the 2003 International Symposium on Recent Advances in Intrusion Detection, also known as RAID. Many briefers complained that their security research suffered due to lack of good data. For example, intrusion detection analysts usually relied on the 1999 DARPA Intrusion Detection Evaluation data. Data like this may be sanitized for analysis by researchers but it pales in comparison to watching live traffic from production networks.
Several recent events may give security researchers the data they need. For example, UC Berekely suffered an intrusion on 1 Aug 04 which jeopardized a database containing names, addresses, telephone and Social Security numbers collected by the California Department of Social Services (CDSS). According to Carlos Ramos, assistant secretary at CDSS, the compromise "was discovered on Aug. 30 by Berkeley IT staff using intrusion detection software." I wonder if the IDS was Vern Paxson's Bro, developed in the International Computer Science Institute and featured in chapter 9 of The Tao of Network Security Monitoring? As I mention in the book, Vern previously used Bro to track intruders at UC Berkeley.
A second security powerhouse was just the victim of an intrusion. An intruder gained access to systems at Purdue's West Lafayette campus, according to published reports. The Center for Education and Research in Information Assurance and Security (CERIAS), where Gene Spafford is Executive Director, features Brian Carrier of Sleuthkit fame as a student. Might he be doing an incident response and forensic analysis on the affected systems?
Finally, while browsing Web site defacements at zone-h, I noticed a mirror for ournet.tamu.edu. Texas A&M University is the home of the famous Drawbridge bridging firewall. Might the researchers there be preparing to study the compromise of "OurNet, the TAMU Career Center Intranet"? It looks like intruders defaced the TAMU Web site by exploiting a PHP application, as the defacement mirror prominently features PHP-Nuke.
Keep an eye open for papers on "real world intrusions" from these and other academic sources suffering compromises.

With tips and tricks including which hazards to avoid, you'll get to know our course in no time. But, there's no better way to experience it than to get out there. Afterall, it's never the same game twice!
A CLOSER LOOK AT OUR CLUBA place you'll come back to time and time again
Course was in superb condition. Amazing considering the deluge of rain we've had in the last few weeks. Greens were a nice pace, bunkers were superb.
Friendly welcome as always from the pro shop staff and the clubhouse manager. All in all a great experience. Definitely worth giving a visit if you've never been here before.
On behalf of all our family we would like to thank the Golf Club and every one there, who was involved with organising the 'wake' for us. The food and service were exemplary.
Really enjoyed my visit and the greens are a credit to your staff in these extremely hot conditions! Unfortunately my course management let me down, using my driver too many times on the scorched fairways! Not your fault I should have adjusted to conditions. But I will return to your lovely peaceful course
Thank you so much to the Club for hosting our Ladies away day. We thought the course was excellent and the service from all of the staff, the Steward, the waiting ladies and your pro shop assistant was exemplary. The food was more than acceptable as well.

Wheelchair accessible vehicles, or WAV's as they're commonly referred to, are cars that have been converted to fit a ramp to allow a person to enter a car while still in their wheelchair. WAV's provide a fantastic alternative to people who are otherwise limited to using taxi's and public transport to get around – but they do come at a cost. Structural modifications can be expensive so read on for our top tips about WAV's to make sure you get the most out of your car.
You can choose to fit a ramp at either the rear or side of your car. These days both options provide access to both the driver and passenger areas so the location of the ramp is totally up to you, although in some cases the specifications of your car may limit you to one option. When making this decision, consider where you intend to park the car (e.g. do you have enough space in your garage for a side or rear ramp?), the size of wheelchair being used and how much headroom the wheelchair user requires as these can all impact the positioning of the ramp. We suggest you discuss this with your Occupational Therapist and car converter to make sure you get the ramp and access that suits you best.
Whether you're parking at home or in public, you will need extra space to park your WAV. Generally speaking, you will need at least three metres of extra space wherever your ramp has been fitted to allow for both the ramp and the space required for the wheelchair user to safely manoeuvre on to the ramp.
Carers and Support Workers
If you rely on a Carer or Support Worker to help you transfer or drive your car, it is vital that they are familiar and comfortable with your car. This is why it's important to take your primary caregiver(s) with you when you visit your Occupational Therapist and your vehicle converter, and ask them to take your Carer(s) or Support Worker(s) through all the details that they need to know.
As with all cars, it is important that you service your wheelchair accessible vehicle on a regular basis to protect it against breakdowns and mechanical issues. The frequency of servicing will largely depend on the type of car you have, the type of ramp you have, how often you use it and the age of the vehicle. Speak with your converter about how often you should service your car to ensure that it stays in optimal condition.
Finding the right policy can be particularly difficult if your car has been converted for a driver or passenger with a disability. This is because most insurers don't understand disabilities so they often quote higher premiums because they consider WAV owners to be high-risk drivers. As Australia's first independence and disability insurance specialist, we at Blue Badge know that people with wheelchair accessible vehicles are generally safer drivers who represent a lower risk and we think they deserve to be rewarded with lower prices.

The Faun-beast is still coming along nicely, never fear. I have a lot of pictures I just need to edit and attend to. In the mean-while, I had the chance to design something new– I call them Unicorn Britches. I think this is appropriate.
I was quite proud of these. I added the fold-over waistband– I think these are probably the most flattering waistbands possible. My problem with them is their tendency to ride up when you move– that irritates the hell out of me. Then I thought, well, let's tack the sucker down! How to do that in an attractive manner? Hence the lace-up detail. The eyelets go all the way through the pants, securing the waistband down. Plus, lace-ups are hot. End of discussion.
I also added a gusset to these babies. I've been wanting to try this out, and they really do add a lot of flexibility and sturdiness. May have to add this to all the Britches eventually.
This fur is madness. Rainbow sparkles in white fur. If that isn't unicorn-like (unicorny? ) I don't know what is.
Unicorn love!!!
I'll be making these generally available eventually, but am taking pre-orders now, production starting May 20.
–There will be 2 options: The white version you see here, and a black version. Black will have this fur: http://www.mendels.com/furswatch/G24blacklg.jpg
and this spandex: https://beastwares.myshopify.com/collections/glitter-britches/products/oil-slick
-Trim options are either silver or gold.
-Lace-up detail will have 6 extra-large eyelet on each side, also in either silver or gold color.
-Inseam is approximately 34″ to cover boots and heels, but I double-stitch the seams so you can cut them down easily if you like, or just request shorter at time of purchase.
-Includes crotch-gusset for best flexibility and sturdiness.
-Fold-over waistband, secured with eyelets and lace-up detail– no waistbands sneaking up.
-$160. $10 ship anywhere in US. International varies.
Please email me at email@example.com if you want to snag a pair!

Hey hey ho ho 2016 has got to go!
Or it's already gone.
I thought it would be interesting if I did a little walkthrough of this year in personal finances. It's good for us to reflect and if you're looking for ideas/encouragement/are just bored and want to read something, here it is!
As you know, generally, I refrain from sharing very specific numbers. I am sure we can all understand. I think you can de-mystify money and talk about it openly without having to paste your income all over the internet. While it works for some people (and I certainly love reading those blogs and listening to those podcasts!) it just doesn't work for us.
How was 2016 for our finances?
Um, we spent all of our money. Not really, but sort of. We bought: a new furnace, a new water softener, a new washer and dryer, a new (used) car. All of them except for the dryer (we felt like the set should match since we're selling) were emergencies. And we paid for them out of our hard earned savings and if I thought about what that dollar amount equaled, I would need to take to bed or breathe into a bag or something because OMG WHY DID 2016 HAVE TO KILL ALL OF OUR APPLIANCES?
Oh, and I almost forgot (how could I?). WE HAD A BABY. Also an expensive thing.
We saved a lot of money.
- We maxed out our HSA because that allowed us to lower our taxable income. And because we knew that we were going to spend it all on Critter's birth. Marcus did some serious math at the end of 2015 to figure out what medical plan would make sense for us based on projected birth costs and deductibles, out of pocket maximums, premium payments, etc. We ended up selecting a HDHP with an HSA because it was the lowest-cost for what we knew we would need.
- We saved 10% in my Roth 401(k) and 11% in Marcus' which continues to be the least gratifying activity of my entire life.
- After all of the spending that took place as outlined above (again OMG), we still managed to save an additional 5% of our income.
We re-did part of our budget halfway through the year. Realizing that we were spending TONS on groceries and not nearly as much going out with friends (or in general), we reallocated $40 per month towards groceries and took that out of our allowances. This was a pretty painless change. We also realized we were spending MUCH less on gas because I only drive to work three days per week and on the weekends, we just aren't as far-ranging as we once were. And that whole thing where gas prices were super low last year.
I stopped buying new clothes in August. And I committed to purchasing only things to replace worn-out items. I wrote about it here. I will confess that in December, I purchased one more piece of employer-branded clothing to wear with jeans because I was wearing my pullover every single week and if being able to wear jeans to work when I want to hasn't been one of the best life-improvements in my year, I just don't know what is. I will also give a shout-out to that third pair of yoga pants I bought in November. It really has made my laundry-life SO MUCH BETTER.
Otherwise, where not purchasing new clothing is concerned, I will say this. We have started going to our local mall from time to time so that we can walk with Critter in the late afternoon. Whenever we go I am SO OVERWHELMED by the sheer amount of things that are being sold. I have already removed two grocery bags of clothing from my closet and my shelves and drawers are still so full. At the end of the year, I had managed to save an additional $130 from my allowance, that probably otherwise would have gone to…you guessed it…clothes. Instead, it's just not. I still don't know what the ultimate end result of this experiment is but it probably has to do with having less of everything.
We gave away $$$. I know I have spoken about it before, but we do have a specific line item in our budget for charitable giving and it continues to be my favorite part of the budget. We spent all of it. Obviously. There was also a point in the year where Marcus received some bonuses and I received a raise and we made another small gift because I truly believe that the Lord provisions us with what we need and when we are blessed, we need to bless others.
All in all, it was A Year. Even though it didn't turn out quite the way we had planned, I'm still (we're still) proud of how it turned out.
If there are specific topics you want to hear more about (and if you don't, it's okay!), feel free to leave a comment. Otherwise, if there are any financial celebrations you want to share, I'd love to hear about those too!
