Commander Orlando Iron Wolf is aboard the International Space Station when a blinking light on his computer console alerts him of a fast-moving comet headed for a collision with planet Earth.
With no way to stop the impending doomsday, the world descends into anarchy. Massive transport ships are built to colonize the moon, and evacuation of a chosen few begins. After a shuttle mission to study the approaching comet goes awry, Wolf is forced into cryogenic sleep, and the onboard computer assumes control of the ship.
Wolf awakens 50,000 years later to a wildly different earth. Endowed with incredible strength, he finds himself caught in a war between primitive tribes, and his survival depends on Syn, an advanced computer intellience who has fallen in love with him.
Will Wolf be able to help restore Earth to its past glory, or is civilization doomed to fail?
About the Author
Tim Allen is a 28-year veteran fire captain for the Peoria (Illinois) Fire Department. His writing career began the day he responded to a structure fire. Tim and a fellow firefighter were nearly cooked in the inferno, and his supervisor told him to write a report on the incident. He was so upset by the experience that he left out details and wrote a brief summary that glossed over the terror of that moment. His supervisor felt that Tim's report wasn't detailed enough and ordered him to write a more descriptive fire report.
In the rewrite, Tim gave a highly descriptive narrative of the event. He titled it Faraday Street and included vivid details about what he had seen and felt during those two minutes of hell. His boss stated that this report contained too much detail, and it earned Tim a reprimand with the most severe punishment possible: an insubordination charge and a day off without pay.
Over the next few months, word of Tim's Farraday Street narrative got around, and the incident flared into controversy. Eventually, the report began circulating among his fellow firefighters, and when several co-workers wanted to read more of his stories, he began writing in earnest. Today, Tim devotes most of his free time to writing, while teaching courses on Hazardous Materials Response, Confined Space, Rope Rescue, and Structural Collapse to firefighters and local businesses.
Tim is currently writing a murder mystery entitled Tethered, but his primary love is science fiction. He has nearly a dozen sci-fi novels in development that run the gamut from planetary colonization and aliens to time travel. He also writes horror stories based on well-documented crime reports and true stories.

Cradle to Cradle
Dr Michael Braungart and William McDonough are heros of our planet that are making us rethink how products are developed via their Cradle to Cradle concepts. These men created a system based on the idea of demanding consumer goods that go beyond being less bad, to encouraging brands to produce products that support a circular economy. Goods for good is their basic idea. A circular economy is supported by good designs developed with good intentions where products can be upcycled. Their idea is to create products that provide our planet with biological and technical nutrients that take into account – what happens to them next. They have proven that products can be superbly efficient without creating scarcity and fear to future generations.
We as consumers are accustomed to cradle to grave products that end up in a landfill or at best recycled. Most consumers do not realize that recycling should be at the bottom of the chain of, reduce – reuse – recycle. Waste has become so common that we as consumer stopped demanding less waste from brands and most just gave in to the concept of recycling as the common answer. We as consumers look at goods as dead objects. We do not consider their life once we are done with them, we never think of their cycle for future generations. Recycling is a dead end for all products. If we look beyond recycling we can come to see that products can have infinite possibilities.
What if we could purchase products with the future intentionally developed into the design?
Cradle to Cradle supports brands that wish to create safe, healthy and reusable products designed to come back. Healthy by design provides consumer goods with future benefits designed right in. Products that look to what is next, as now. For consumers this can become a new way to look at waste as treasure and a wealth that can benefit society. We can use this time in history to transition and blend less bad with more good to produce products that create beneficial biological/technical nutrients that support a living planet. The idea is to create value through manufacturing practices and product development to create a circular economy to encourage re-cology and move away from the current system of take – make – waste.
What if all boxes could instantly become garden compost and never once see the trash bin? What if your car was designed to be returned to the dealership to reclaim their raw materials as perpetual assets to made it into a whole new car? What if your carpet was leased and when you wanted to change the color it was unsnapped from the floor to be returned and used to make a brand new carpet without additional inputs? Cradle to Cradle says it is time for consumers to rethink how we use, purchase and consume goods. The future is here and if we want precious commodities to be available for future generations – recycling will no longer get the job done.
Many of the items we use today are made from recycled goods that were never intended for the end use we currently seeing them in. Recycled water bottles and PVC were never meant to be used in carpets, clothing, upholstery, children's toys or any other consumer goods for that matter. As a result we as people and planet are exposed to chemicals that are not fit for humans or the environment.
Cradle to Cradle concepts ask us as consumers to demand that brands develop the future into their products. We can put our money where our mouth is by purchasing only products that support abundance without impoverishing the world. We can move away from the tragedy of the commons and ask for products that do not harm, but actually protect our precious ecological resources..
When designing Ama Sea Beauty products I wanted to create a value based line that is a steward of the planet and one that consumers could be proud to bring into their lives and their homes. Our planet is a common inheritance that supports and enriches us all and it is here for the living, today and in the future. The planet is only on loan and we should be responsible to leave it better than we found it. Ama Sea was developed to put people and planet before profit. Our planet has endless potential and all products made from this day forward should honor all future infants of all species. The time is here and we all must act now to support human and ecological health if we are all to thrive on a living planet.
Cradle to Cradle offers us simple solutions as a New Way to love our planet before it is too late.

Friday, July 15th. Motorists in Oklahoma City were confronted with America's first parking meter this month in 1935. It was located on the corner of First Street and Robinson Avenue, and while local drivers could avoid that single space, they couldn't escape for long. That meter was just the first of many to sprout up in Oklahoma City and across the nation, as millions of ticketed motorists will attest. While municipalities sought to rotate street parking spots among more drivers, raising revenue was always a consideration. At the same time, pay parking lots and garages began to open for business. Today there are over 12,500 such commercial parking facilities in the U.S., which take in around $7.5 billion a year in parking fees. You can find more facts about America's people, places and economy, from the American Community Survey, at <www.census.gov>.
Saturday, July 16th. On this date in 1995, a small start-up company launched its business of selling books online out of a two-car garage in Bellevue, Washington. The first item purchased was a book titled "Fluid Concepts and Creative Analogies: Computer Models of the Fundamental Mechanisms of Thought." The 1995 garage operation was Amazon.com. The company now has some 230,000 employees and around 90 warehouses to store and ship the annual two-billion purchases of books and much else. Amazon went public in 1997, and currently its market capitalization puts it among America's largest companies. Not all of America's 26,000 electronic shopping ventures do so well, but last year internet sales totaled nearly $342 billion, or over 7 percent of all retail sales. Profile America is in its 20th year as a public service of the U.S. Census Bureau.
Sunday, July 17th. Harvard University, founded in Cambridge, Massachusetts in 1636, is the oldest institution of higher education in the United States. Thus, it was already a bit long in the tooth when on this date in 1867, it opened the first dental school associated with a medical school. It was also the first to be permanently established by a university, making the full scholarly and scientific resources of a university available to dental education. Today, there are 65 dental schools at universities across the U.S. and Puerto Rico. Graduates of these and foreign schools make up the148,000 dentists nationwide. They practice in nearly 134,000 dental offices, which employ nearly 900,000 people.

Artists need to make a living, just like any other professional. The idea that art should be free is gross and misguided. You pay your plumber to unclog your toilet and you pay a carpenter for custom-made furniture. Why would illustration be any different? It's a skill that takes time and dedication to develop and it should be compensated accordingly!
There's always going to be somebody who doesn't like your art. But there's also going to be somebody who loves it. People just have different tastes. So the best thing you can do is not take it personally and stay true to yourself.
You can be the ripest, juiciest peach in the world, and there's still going to be somebody who hates peaches. ― Dita Von Teese
There's enough room for everyone. Share their work and show them some love. You're not running out of likes!
We can get wrapped up in our goals and wishes that we don't even take a moment to pause and look back at the things we have accomplished. When you review the past year, quarter or month, it's crazy how much you made happen. Give yourself a pat on the back and treat yo self because you deserve it!
I think the most important thing that has saved me from art block so far is my process. After years of being a full-time artist (one of which I did client work), I developed a bullet-proof way of walking through an illustration - from start to finish. I can always rely on it, even if I don't have any ideas before I sit down. But as soon as I start going through the motions, things fall into place.
Inspiration exists, but it has to find you working.
― Pablo Picasso
I described my process in detail in this interview with TOR. Of course, this is MINE. Yours might look entirely different and it's up to you to figure it out.
Learning the distiction between The art you like looking at and the art you make is incredibly helpful in building your confidence! Let's say your work is highly stylised and cartoony, but everytime you see a realistic painting, you feel like you should rather be doing THAT.
But if you're clear about who you are as an artist (what your influences are and how they reflect in your work), you can look at other art styles with admiration rather than jealousy or guilt. Learn to stay true to yourself and don't go chasing everything you see.
Of course, experiment and play, but don't try to become someone else.
Take everything with a grain of salt. And yes, that includes this blog, too. If something I'm saying does not apply to you, that's perfectly fine! Just take what you need and leave the rest.
I've come to learn that people always tell you what works for THEM, and more often than not, they make it sound like hard and fast rules. Guess who's going to tell you that you absolutely HAVE to keep a sketchbook? - Those artists that are naturally very good at keeping sketchbooks.

Top story: 138 surgeries shut their doors
Hello, it's Warren Murray offering salutations and information.
GPs have blamed under-resourcing and recruitment difficulties as surgery closures across the UK reach an all-time high, affecting an estimated half a million patients last year. According to research by the medical website Pulse, 138 surgeries shut their doors in 2018, compared with just 18 in 2013.
Data released under freedom of information by 186 out of 217 clinical commissioning groups and health boards revealed that smaller surgeries – those serving 5,000 or fewer patients – were the worst affected in 2018, accounting for 86% of closures.
One doctor told how after 26 years he gave up his GP surgery in Brighton, where he and his partner were run off their feet looking after 6,500 patients. "The money was just falling away," he said. "We gave the staff six months' notice and we walked away." NHS England said its figures showed fewer practice closures and patient dispersals in 2017/18 compared with 2016/17. But those figures are only for England, and cover the financial year, whereas Pulse's figures cover the whole UK and calendar years.
Quietly content – The Labour peer David Brookman claimed almost £50,000 in attendance and travel expenses despite not speaking or asking a single written question when the House of Lords sat in 2018, the Guardian has found. Almost a third of the 800 peers barely participated in parliamentary business over 12 months despite costing almost £3.2m in allowances. Forty-six did not register a single vote, including on Brexit. The former Lords speaker Frances D'Souza, an advocate of reform, said: "There are people who are attending the House of Lords who are not contributing, and therefore they are simply redundant." The steel magnate Swraj Paul, who only spoke once, defended his claim of more than £47,000 of allowances, saying there was "a lot more to be done than making speeches" in the Lords, such as "thinking, etc, and giving my point of view to colleagues".
Boxer's fight to stay – The former England boxer Kelvin Bilal Fawaz has been released from immigration detention after his lawyers threatened to launch legal action. Fawaz represented England at amateur level six times but has battled to establish his nationality and immigration status. The 31-year-old was brought to the UK from Nigeria as a child 17 years ago and forced into domestic servitude.
Since he turned 18, the Home Office has delayed taking key decisions on Fawaz's immigration status, leaving him unable to work and impoverished. Some of the biggest names in the sport have appealed to the Home Office on his behalf, including the boxing manager Frank Warren. The Home Office says that it is considering his case.
'Every child has right to education' – Israel's defence ministry is auctioning two prefabricated classrooms that the EU had donated to Palestinian schoolchildren in the West Bank. The EU mission to Jerusalem and Ramallah has condemned Israeli authorities and called on them to rebuild the structures in the same place "without delay". Palestinians have limited autonomy in parts of the West Bank, mostly urban areas, but Israel maintains full control of most of the territory and demolishes homes and buildings it says were built without permission. "Every child has the right to access education and states have an obligation to protect, respect and fulfil this right, by ensuring that schools are inviolable safe spaces for children," said the EU mission.
Sea change – The short-snouted seahorse, ocean quahog, ross worm reefs and blue mussel beds are among the species and habitats that will benefit from 41 new marine conservation zones. This "blue belt" nearly twice the size of England ranges from Studland Bay, near Bournemouth, to the Goodwin Sands off the Deal coast in Kent. Conservationists have denied the zones are "paper parks" that offer little real protection. "Many of the sites here in Devon have had scallop dredging banned so the most damaging activities have been stopped," said Joan Edwards from the Wildlife Trusts, adding that the zones were "good for nature conservation, and good for fishermen because if you have areas that are left alone they will produce more fish".

Lunchtime read: From refugee to 'the girl who kicked ass'
When she arrived in the US as a 10-year-old refugee from Iran, Dina Nayeri found it hard to fit in. But that all changed when she hatched a plan to get into Harvard – by becoming a taekwondo champion. "I admit the notion that sport trophies got you into university in America struck me as bizarre for exactly one second before I gave myself up to it … I wanted to try swimming or tennis, but in Oklahoma those sports were the province of rich girls with private coaches.
"Then, my best friend, a fellow book nerd, mentioned that she had joined a martial arts club that had no other girls from our school. I loved taekwondo from the first day – we all wore the same clothes and smelled like sweat, no fineries were allowed … American, Iranian, Mexican, Thai and all other cultures fell aside and we behaved as if we were in Seoul. After I got my yellow belt, I started competing in small local events. I won a trophy, then another. My thighs became dangerous, like the sporty girls I had admired." In the end, was it enough to get into Harvard? Read on to find out.
Ben Stokes soaked up a phenomenal feeling after his one-handed wonder catch got England's World Cup campaign under way with a crushing victory and a sprinkling of stardust. Off the pitch, the fans' joy in the packed stands at the Oval suggested cricket is doing just fine as it is, writes Barney Ronay. Tottenham's Jan Vertonghen is hoping for a successful end to the "craziest Champions League ever", as the countdown to Saturday's final with Liverpool continues.
British No 1 Johanna Konta will meet Slovakia's Viktoria Kuzmova – who reads Shakespeare in her spare time – in the third round of the French Open on Friday but Kyle Edmund limped out of Roland Garros with a knee injury that left the men's No 1 uncertain about being seeded for Wimbledon – or even starting. Erling Braut Håland, the 18-year-old who has been linked with Manchester United and Juventus, broke the Under-20 World Cup scoring record with nine goals in a a 12-0 victory over Honduras. And burglars have stolen medals and commemorative jewellery from the London 2012 Games belonging to the British Olympian Eilish McColgan.
Donald Trump has slapped a 5% tariff on all Mexican imports, saying that the levy will gradually increase unless it acts to stem the flow of migrants north. The president's surprise announcement would appear to threaten the passage of legislation to update the US-Mexico trade deal but a White House spokesman said the two "were not linked". It did, however, prompt more losses on Asian stock markets amid fears that the US could lead the global economy into recession. The FTSE100 is set to drop 0.35% at the open. Sterling is at $1.261 and €1.132 this morning.
The papers
A wide range of stories on show today, but many fronts capture England's good start to the World Cup cricket. The Guardian carries a big photo of Ben Stokes after his amazing outfield catch, but the main headline is reserved for: "Peer who never spoke in Lords last year claimed €50,000 in expenses". The Telegraph carries a big picture of bowler Jofra Archer with the headline "Bullesye for Archer", but its main headline focusses on the Tory leadership contest: "Trump: Boris is a good guy".
The Times also carries pictures of the cricket (Ben Stokes's outfield catch) but also saves its main story for politics: "Poll surge puts Lib Dems on top", saying the "pro-Remain party most popular in country". The FT marks Stokes' efforts with "quite a catch" but its main headline is: "Woodford fund shrinks by £560m in a month as investors jump ship".
The Mail and the Mirror both lead on doctor shortages. The Mail says two GPs' surgeries are shutting every week: "So that's why you can't get a doctor". The Mirror has "NHS crisis: 500,000 forced to find new GP" as "record number of families move surgery as smaller practices are axed". The Express leads on Brexit: "Barnier blames Brexit on British nostalgia". And the Sun tries out its alliteration with "Wooney's weddy to wumble with Woss" in a story about Wayne Rooney saying he wants to box Jonathan Ross.

This is Kaden. He is the little boy that I am watching 3 days a week. Savannah loves to sit as close to him as she possibly can without sitting on him. She also loves to hug him but doesn't really pay attention to where she is laying her head and has bonked heads with him several times. I am trying to teach her to say "baby." She points to him when I ask where the baby is. It is so much fun!!!

How To Spend a Weekend In Lagos, Portugal
Bura Surfhouse
I chose Bura over some of the other places in town because it looked peaceful and I'm so glad that I did. From hammocks by the pool, 1 euro cups of sangria and cozy living spaces, Bura Surfhouse was good retreat in Lagos. The surfhouse is a hostel and I paid about €22.00 per night. The beds were comfortable however I do wish that the beds and lockers weren't metal (this made them look at bit outdated to me). Otherwise, the hostel was sparkling clean and always tidy.
Breakfast was served in the morning and was very simple but they had pancakes or crepes on some days. Cheap family style dinners are served every night but I never had the chance to attend. However, I spent a lot of time relaxing by the pool and can say that the sangria and quesadilla are delicious. I was the only black traveler here but everyone was friendly and helpful.
This place does chargrilled food extremely well. It was so good that I went back two nights in a row for the same exact meal. I ordered the 'catch of the day' and watched the chef season and grill my fish to perfection just a few steps from my table. Portugal definitely has some of the best fish I've ever had while traveling. That's saying a lot because I'm from Baltimore.
The white interiors are reminiscent of Greece. It feels like a cozy cave and is right by the water making it the perfect dinner spot - romantic, too.
Praia de Marinha
Everyone told me to go here and it's easy to see why. It was beautiful and the perfect way to spend a full afternoon - hiking and exploring. The trails almost seemed never ending and there was so many different angles and views to take in the landscape with. At one point, I found myself sitting near the edge of a cliff while eating an orange. One of the most peaceful moments of my trip.
The hiking isn't difficult for the most part. There were harder hills to climb but I didn't walk the full length. After taking in the views from the top, I headed to the base of the beach to be seaside. Even on a cloudy day, the blue hues still popped. The beauty of this region is immaculate.
Praia de Camilo
I spent my last few hours in Lagos here - best decision ever. This beach is quite popular as it's alot closer to Lagos' city center than Praia de Marinha. My uber ride here only costed 3 euros. This beach is where you should come if you want to hop on a boat tour through the grotto and Bengali cave areas. There are a bunch of restaurants nearby.
One of the best views I saw here look like it was straight from a postcard:
Extreme Algarve - Surfing
I came to Portugal with one thing I had to do before leaving: surfing. I'd never surf before and recently learned about the beautiful young black Haiwiann surfer, Dominique Miller. I wanted to try my hand at the sport and decided to book a tour through Bura and their partner company Extreme Algarve. For 60 euros, I got a 3 hour lessons, wetsuit + board and lunch.
It was a really good time. I didn't stand up once - mind y'all business. But I WAS SO TIRED. Like I've never been more tired in my life but it was worth it. I had fun learning the techniques and honestly, just being in the water was refreshing. The water is my natural habitat so I had fun just being there. The instructors were welcoming and helpful. It was a great experience and next time I will stand up even if it kills me!
Enjoy photos shot on film from the trip below:

Guess who we just heard from!
St. Constance MEMORIES
Hello from Felicia Renee Diaz, St. Constance School Class of 2004
What do you miss most about St. Constance Felicia?
What I miss most about St. Constance School is getting to see all the people that I used to see every day. I miss both my classmates and my teachers. I also miss the carefree joys of being a kid.
What high school did you attend?
After I graduated from St. Constance in 2004, I went to Lane Tech College Prep and graduated in 2008. I then received my bachelor's degree from the American Academy of Art in 2012. I became a teacher and taught art for four years. This year, I launched my own business called AFAR- Artisan Furniture Artistically Redesigned.
In 2024 when you attend your twenty-year St. Constance reunion what do you hope to tell your classmates you are doing?
I hope that by the 20th anniversary of my elementary school graduation, I will be able to say that I make my sole living from my furniture business and from making artwork.

Hina Khan was recently in bad news when Diet Sabya, popular virtual fashion police criticised her recent outing for being a 'gandi copy.' Now the Instagram page in question here is well known for trolling designers and celebs who seek inspiration from international designs and end up copying them blatantly. While the anonymous writer has previously trolled some well-known names like Janhvi Kapoor, Shweta Bachchan Nanda and Anushka Sharma, its recent target was Hina Khan. The page tagged her for copying a similar design from Bebe Rexha's past appearance and how the uncanny similarities between their attires is a thing to worry and troll. After Divyanka Tripathi, Diet Sabya Calls Out Hina Khan For Plagiarising a Pink Dress From House of CB! See Pics.
However, Hina wasn't really offended with the allegations but found it amusing instead. In her recent Instagram chat, she addressed the situation by calling out such trolls as 'jobless'. She believes a verified account should be used for better things and do progressive work instead. She revealed how she found the entire situation very funny and how she laughed hard about it. Hina doesn't really give a shit about her haters so these things don't bother her.
The post where Diet Sabya targeted Hina Khan
Coming to the copy part, Hina and beau, Rocky Jaiswal revealed how it's a mere inspiration. They don't want the haters to ignore the fact that there's an entire team who worked hard on the same design and we shouldn't disrespect their efforts. Going ahead she elaborated how she admires Deepika Padukone and Sonam Kapoor and if she wears one of their looks, it doesn't mean she's copying them. Well, this is a classic case of the glass being half empty or filled. Hear it! Hina Khan May Rub Shoulders with Sonam Kapoor and Deepika Padukone at Cannes Film Festival 2019.
Meanwhile, Diet Sabya was recently in the news when it trolled Divyanka Tripathi Dahiya for copying Sabyasachi Mukherjee's signature belt design. While the actress gave it back to the troll, her fans jumped in to support her. Another instance was when Diet Sabya trolled Anamika Khanna for Sonam Kapoor's fuschia pink AK is OK outfit at Isha Ambani's wedding last year. While the post was taken down, the page insisted it wasn't a blunder but a form of respect towards the Khanna family.

Fifty-six per cent of South West workers say they are uncomfortable with their employer getting involved in their personal lifestyle choices, research has revealed.
The Willis Towers Watson study found that three in five (60%) workers in the region view lifestyle choices, such as diet, exercise, and alcohol consumption, as a strictly personal matter.
Almost three quarters (72%) of respondents who said they felt uncomfortable wanted to keep a boundary between their personal and work lives, 40% said they didn't understand why their employer should be involved in their lifestyle choices, and 28% said they feared it would create a 'Big Brother' culture.
Despite this, more than one in four (28%) workers see their employers as having a moral responsibility to help them lead a fit and healthy lifestyle.
"Health and wellbeing is a sensitive area and companies must tread carefully if they are to adequately support their workers, whilst also ensuring their privacy is respected," said Mike Blake, wellbeing lead at Willis Towers Watson.
"Although a healthy workforce benefits business, driving down presenteeism and absenteeism, and boosting productivity and retention, employees don't always appreciate their employer intervening on matters of personal wellbeing.
"However, there is a growing expectation for employers to step up and help – but getting the approach right is key.
"Effective but indirect communication can help companies offer specialist advice to workers, without them feeling their boundaries have been breached."
Currently, two in five workers (42%) in the South West say the company they work for helps them lead fit and healthy lifestyles.
One in four workers (21%) said they would most like support, such as benefits, voluntary wellbeing schemes, or advice, pertaining to relaxation, and 16% would like help with fitness.
Blake added: "As a nation, we are becoming more health-conscious and employers can play a key role in helping workers attain and maintain a healthy lifestyle.
"Tapping into current trends can help employers engage with employees on a level they are comfortable and familiar with.
"Offering access to health technologies, such as wearables and self-help apps, can help improve wellbeing and strengthen the resilience of a workforce, without direct intervention of an employer.
"Companies should essentially equip their workers with the tools to live a fit and healthy lifestyle but let workers decide the level of involvement from their company in pursuit of this."

A biome called the Arachnid Forrest, a place filled with spiders.
The Biome:
It would be a place were an eerie fog clouds your vision and the ground begins to turn dark and unnatural looking. It would be located inside a Dark oak forest( because it's already a spooky place ) but when you go in it, the trees start looking dead and webbing covers them.
The Structures:
In this place it would be able to spawn a few prebuilt structures such as a destroyed dark oak village, prebuilt cave like the mine shafts but it would be a labyrinth with a new boss at the end. Also since this is supposed to be infested with spiders there would be new re-textured blocks that are covered with webbing. There could new prefabbed trees with cobwebs covering it and maybe some new decoration blocks like a webbed up skeleton.
7 Comments
Post a new comment:
Please sign in to leave a comment.
the max was 1500 characters so here's the rest
The Enemies:
There would be a couple new types of spiders, to start off with there would be one that paralyzes you with an acid spiting attack, not stopping you but giving you slowness. A spider queen that would be the boss to the for mentioned cave labyrinth. A new zombie that gives you slowness when he attacks you, reasoning being he was a previous victim to the spiders and now serves there queen. I also say a rework for the spiders in general should be down because they're so clunky in the first place. Like if I had a dollar for every time I saw a spider just sitting on the ceiling not attacking me I'd actually have more than 1000 dollars. I think the should have the ability to climb on the ceiling and sides of walls to try and juke you when attacking, sort of like in deep rock galactic.
New Blocks and Items
A couple new decoration blocks like webbed dirt, wood, stone, and stone brick. Though you would only obtain them with silk touch and breaking them with anything else just gives you string. New crafting materials like spider legs, dropped from the queen, too let you create a new chest piece making you blend in more if you were to visit the another Arachnid Forrest. Also a new projectile shot from a crossbow only called a spider gland. It would drop from the spitter spider and would deal a little under what a arrow would deal but would be able to slow mobs.
yeah minecraft needs this sort of stuff
You could also add other Arachnids, like crabs and scorpions
You could also add other Arachnids, like crabs and scorpions
Could be interesting, sounds pretty similar to the roofed forest though. Same sort of feel. But I can see how adding an entire biome Dedicated to spiders could be uneasy for arachniphobes. I'm not arachnophobic but I could see that being something to consider.
I'd think it would be cool.
I consider myself an arachnophobe because I've gotten scared from Minecraft spiders
There are species of Spiders that create nests that are massive, covering trees and land.
I think a small rare biome in Minecraft would be awesome for this reason. Many of the ideas above in this comment thread are pretty good.
Perhaps in the nests there's a small chance for a boss battle with a giant spider?
Also ... the biome would give people a reason to have Bane of Arthropods ;)

Send your workplace conundrums to email@example.com, including your name and contact information (even if you want it withheld for publication). The Workologist is a guy with well-intentioned opinions, not a professional career adviser. Letters may be edited.
I work for a financial firm, in a management position in the technology department. We are all expected to attend many "mandatory fun" events after work — for colleagues visiting from overseas, holiday gatherings or even for our higher-ups wanting to celebrate their promotions. Moreover, a small group of us managers is "invited" to help pay the costs for all others attending. This can mean shelling out $50 to $200 a shot for outings taking place once or twice a month.
My department isn't getting those Wall Street bonuses you read about in the press: Our department operates on a tight budget. So with mortgages, kids' college tuitions, etc., this is a lot to ask from most of us.
When I discussed this with my boss, I was told that bringing up the issue at our management meeting wouldn't be good if I wanted to seem like a "team player," and that not attending these events was considered inadvisable as well. What to do? ANONYMOUS
Being ordered to attend a party can dampen the celebratory mood, but being commanded to underwrite the festivities risks drowning out any enjoyment at all. And if the occasion is an enforced huzzah for a top executive's promotion, the whole situation starts to sound like a cruel prank.
So I sympathize, and I wish that companies would think more carefully about the oxymoronic category of "mandatory fun." You are certainly not the only person who finds such gatherings bothersome. (In fact, if you search for this subject on the web, it is striking how often the context involves the legality of requiring certain categories of worker to show up at such events without compensation. That issue would not apply to a senior manager, but it suggests very mixed attitudes about nonoptional celebrations outside of work hours.)
That said, your bosses probably mean well, and you do not want to come across as resisting on purely selfish grounds. One strategy might be to offer some alternative way of contributing that does not involve money — helping organize an event, for example. You can note that the financial strain of all these celebrations might be different for your group than for those in more richly compensated departments, but still underscore your team player attitude.
A more ambitious strategy might be to start a discussion on the general issue. Many employees really do appreciate a nice party, but such events should not feel compulsory. There is research that raises legitimate questions about the potential downsides of such well-intentioned, but mandated, activities.
Admittedly, this may not be a fun conversation, but the idea is to position it as thinking about what's best for the company. Simply saying, "I have a lot of personal expenses," is not likely to get you far. But a less personally focused dialogue might lead the bosses to their own conclusions about reshuffling the financial burden of all that theoretical fun.
Peer Review: Breaking Into the Clique
While I resist looking at things exclusively through the lens of gender, your recent answer to a reader trying to break into an established work "team" merits that focus. I submit that if the letter were signed Christopher instead of Christy, your advice would have been different.
Suggesting that the reader curry favor and avoid a direct conversation rather than be assertive was "girl advice," and somewhat infantilizing. As a coach and consultant, my recommendation to most women is to get past waiting for the invitation (or, worse, permission) and just take their seats. In this case, Christy needs to work out her issues directly with her peers; taking the problem to an oblivious boss will be ineffective and quite possibly compromising.
I would suggest that she ignore the perceived slights and instead build her reputation in her group and beyond as someone who can be both a team player and a leader. It is incumbent on the newcomer to build rapport and a track record to gain trust. If the exclusion from emails and other critical information persists, a direct conversation is in order. It may be uncomfortable, but she would demonstrate professionalism and stretch out of her comfort zone — and become stronger as a result.
Certainly a great deal has been written about the unfortunate ways that identical behavior can be perceived differently depending on gender — one man's assertiveness is another woman's abrasiveness, and so on. But even as I reflect on it now, I think I would make the same basic point in any gender configuration: If a work clique's exclusionary tactics include telling you not to talk to your own boss, you should ignore them and not be shy about it. (Moreover, I still think it is fundamentally the manager's job to make sure his or her team operates smoothly with its newest member.)
That said, it is fair to suggest that my answer may have soft-pedaled this worker's need to manage her own relationship with her reluctant peers. I agree that ultimately they will need to be won over by a demonstration of competence and skill, and it is smarter to focus on those core issues than on squishier personality matters. And yes, if the resistance persists, it may be necessary to have a blunt conversation about it. But I do not think that rules out making an explicit effort to connect with the boss about one's desire to be a fully contributing team player.

KBOO presents a Mali Film Night!
KBOO presents a Mali Film Night!
Join KBOO and Ko-Falen Cultural Center for an extraordinary documentary of Mali's musicians, as they fight for their right to sing.
Doors open at 6:30pm. Listen to the Desert Sounds of Mali musicians while you peruse Malian Arts & Crafts and mine information on Ko-Falen Cultural Center—a nonprofit doing work in Mali and the US.
The documentary film is preceded by a Ko-Falen short film entitled: Spinners of Stories: Women Storytellers of Baroueli (bar-oo-WALL-ee).
A Q&A with Malians Baba Wague Diakite and Ibrahim Kelly will follow the film.
Tickets are suggested $7-15, with no one turned away for lack of funds.
Music is the beating heart of Malian culture, but when Islamic jihadists took control of northern Mali in 2012, they enforced one of the harshest interpretations of sharia law in history: They banned all forms of music. Radio stations were destroyed, instruments burned and Mali's musicians faced torture. Overnight, Malians' revered musicians were forced into hiding or exile
But rather than lay down their instruments, the musicians are fighting back, standing up for their cultural heritage and identity. Throughout their struggle, they have used music as their weapon against ongoing violence that has left Mali ravaged.
THEY WILL HAVE TO KILL US FIRST sees musicians on the run, tells the story of the uprising of Touareg separatists, reveals rare footage of the jihadists, captures life at refugee camps where money and hope are scarce, charts perilous journeys home to war-ravaged cities, and follows our characters as they set up and perform at the first public concert in Timbuktu since the music ban.

When you see a Staged home, it is beautiful and perfect and usually not decorated for living. The reason for this is because when Stagers transform a space, the main goal is to showcase the home for sale—not for personal style or taste. Stagers want homebuyers to walk freely from room to room and feel invited.
Each aspect of the Stage is to highlight the special details of the home and remove buyer's questions. However, there are some Staging techniques that can help inspire your home decor and way of living, for the better!
2. BOOKS, BOOKS and MORE BOOKS!
Books are a great tool for Stagers. We use cookbooks in the kitchen, novels for the study, and throughout the entire home. Books are a ultimate source of inspiration. If you don't have time to sit and cuddle-up to finish a book, sometimes just a sentence can motivate you!
I love having influential books to look at and glance at and re-read. Creating an area in your home to inspire creativity and encouragement is a excellent way to promote productivity.
Clutter is the enemy of a Stager. We want all Staged homes to be clutter-free and clean. In a vacant home that is an easy task for the obvious reason that no one lives there. Yet, when you live in your home you need those things that create clutter. We have clothes and accessories and bills and everyday "stuff."
For some people the thought of decluttering and cleaning out their belongings is overwhelming. The key is to start small. You don't have to worry about emptying out every kitchen drawer in one day. Rather, just do one drawer every Saturday until you finish. Your clothes can also be tricky because you may feel like you will need something as soon as you give it away.
However, instead of stressing out, the next time you buy something new try to get rid of something old that you haven't recently worn. This habit makes it easier to part with things and less of a cumbersome task. When you live with less it gives you more of an opportunity to use only the items that you love, and that is always beneficial.

VPN software was manufactured to option your Web traffic during the secure canal. Totally absolutely free VPN software comes with an inclination to be a little slower than this business variants.
