"…a time to weep and a time to laugh, a time to mourn and a time to dance…" Ecclesiastes 3:4
One evening I sat at the dinner table with my husband and children and we were about to play a game called Chubby Bunny. It's when you try to see who can fit the most marshmallows in your mouth while saying chubby bunny each time. Before we began, I told everyone I would win because my mouth is the biggest. My husband just stared at me. He just knew he had me beat. So we began. One marshmallow, then two. My son put two in his mouth and he was done. My daughter fit three, then gagged, and said "I'm out!" My husband was able to stuff six in his mouth before calling it quits. I reached seven, the most of everyone, and it was hilarious. Trying to say chubby bunny with a mouth full of marshmallows sounded more like hubba hubba. But I did it! I won and I was happy! After I did my little happy dance, we looked at each other and said, "That was fun!"
In your pursuit of God's will for your life, know that it is His will that you enjoy your life and the people He has placed in it. Enjoy your husband. Enjoy your children. Enjoy your friendships and every moment God has given you.
Prayer: Father God, thank you for the gift of life. It is precious. I ask that you help me to enjoy the life you've given me. Help me to enjoy every moment and the people you've placed in my life. Let me take nothing for granted. In Jesus' name, Amen.
"Therefore leaving the principles of the doctrine of Christ, let us go on unto perfection; not laying again the foundation of repentance from dead works, and of faith toward God." Hebrews 6:1
It's a new season, my sister, and it's a new day! God is putting the wind back in your sails. He is showing you that nothing can stop you, and no one can hinder you when God is on your side. Those old fears will not work this time. You're in a new place in God, and it's time to receive His grace to continue your progress in Him. If you made it this far, you could go on! Go further than your mother did! Go further than your grandmother did! Go further, my sister! You have everything you need to fulfill God's divine purpose for your life. It's all within you! Instead of running from problems, watch God help you face them head-on. Instead of caving under pressure, watch God help you stand on His truth. Anything that held you back before will not work this time. You're not going backward; you're going forward!
Declare this from your heart today: "God is with me, and He is for me! I am not looking back. I am moving forward in Jesus! It's a new season for me, and it's a new day. God's face is shining on me, and His grace is with me. I am a woman with a vision, I am a woman on a mission, and I am a woman with a purpose. God is building me into a kingdom woman, and I am totally surrendered to Him. In Jesus' name, Amen."

Dong Ha, June 5, 2012 - The 2012 mid-year Consultative Group (CG) meeting for Vietnam, held in Dong Ha City, Quang Tri province and presided by Vietnam's Deputy Prime Minister Hoang Trung Hai, focused on poverty reduction and mitigation from natural disasters in the central part of Vietnam.
In his speech, Deputy Prime Minister Hoang Trung Hai affirmed that maintaining macro-economic stability remains a high priority for Government even as it attempts to growth. According to the Deputy Prime Minister, the negative impacts of controlling inflation, especially on enterprises and employment, need to be addressed, and Decision 13 has been introduced to tackle these difficulties. While the government has focused on stabilizing the economy, it has kept the expenditures targeted towards the poor and will continue to do so.
"We will discuss to identify major issues affecting implementation of policies and guidelines of the central government on poverty reduction and disaster mitigation, to propose additional recommendations to policies and guidelines of the central Government for implementation in provinces, and proposals for improving coordination, integration and effective implementation of donor and NGO assistance in the process of poverty reduction and disaster mitigation in the provinces" said Minister of Planning and Investment Bui Quang Vinh.
The Development Partners were unanimous in congratulating the Government for successfully stabilizing the macro-economic situation by effectively implementing Resolution 11. A number of Development Partners, however, cautioned the government not to relax the monetary policy too soon as there are still uncertainties, which could reverse the recent decline in prices.
Development Partners and the Government agreed that as the macro-economy is stabilizing, the focus should now be made to speed up the restructuring of the banking sector, state owned enterprises and public investment. There was a general sense that improving the quality, efficiency and sustainability of public investment are key to improving Vietnam's competitiveness and make it a more productive economy. Banking sector and SOE reforms were noted as those needing the utmost attention, and the roadmaps for reforms in these two areas were discussed at the meeting. The Government noted that the planned reforms in the banking sector and enterprises sectors are intended o make these sectors achieve international standards.
Achieving breakthroughs in sustainable poverty reduction
Participants heard an overview of the work on updating Vietnam's Poverty Monitoring System, including strengthening VHLSS surveys (starting from 2010) and a revision of the GSO-WB poverty line. They discussed local perspective from central provinces and the challenges to implementation of poverty reduction policies in the Central Coastal Region, including ethnic minority poverty, limited growth rates, weak infrastructure, dependence on agriculture (and limited land), vulnerability to climate change and natural disaster, high dependence on welfare, low levels of education and limited effectiveness in public administration. Future tasks include the need to integrate poverty reduction into general development plans for region, strengthening institutions and policies, working closely with donors in formulation and implementation of poverty reduction projects, improving infrastructure and strengthening skills and human resources.
Participants discussed the importance of measuring multiple dimensions of poverty, the need to address current fragmentation in poverty reduction programs and ensure more integrated planning. The meeting recognized the need for capacity building at the local level the urgency of applying innovative approaches to tackle ethnic minority poverty as well as addressing the need of the rapidly increasing near poor. They elaborated on the importance of involving communities in planning and implementation of programs and projects, the need to consider more involvement of NGOs in project implementation and the benefits of integrating gender concerns into poverty analysis and interventions. Participants noted the urgent need to address land issues, particularly to ensure access to small scale farmers. The importance of education and skills as a contributor to poverty reduction was highlighted. They urged the Government to ensure that the Social Protection Program being prepared will develop into a strong and comprehensive program supported by both central agencies and provincial governments.
Managing vulnerability to natural disaster
The meeting heard reports from the Central Coast Provinces on the current situation and policy issues at the national and provincial level for Natural Disaster Risk Management, and learnt first-hand what worked well and what not. AusAid and Oxfam representatives provided lessons and experience on Natural Disaster Risk Management approaches, from donor and NGO-supported projects and programs in the Central Coast region, which highlighted a number of areas for improvement. They are the need for local participation and empowerment – including gender roles and integration of private sector, sharing of experience across provinces, coordination of all stakeholders, integration of risk assessment into infrastructure investment planning for disaster resilience, integration of natural disaster risk management into the SEDP, the importance of awareness raising through schools.
There was broad consensus on the need to make further progress jointly on a number of fronts, including better coordination – between central and provincial authorities, between different provinces, and among donors, awareness raising, better river basin planning and flood management systems, expanded coverage of early warning systems, natural disaster risk planning, and integration of risk assessment into infrastructure investment planning.
Development Partners complimented Vietnam for its shift away from a short-term approach toward also focusing on the medium term challenges of risk management and prevention. They concluded that the areas for improvement are the right ones and are do-able, and they are committed to support this effort with Government.
CG Evolution
A thorough review of the CG process was conducted ahead of the midyear CG, and its findings as well as options for CG process evolution were presented to the participants. The participants reviewed the strengths and weaknesses of the options, and discussed and provided comments to make the CG process better fit with Vietnam's context as a middle income country.
In closing the conference, Ms. Victoria Kwakwa, Country Director for the World Bank in Vietnam and Co-Chair of the CG thanked the Government and Development Partners for the productive dialogue, and affirmed the development community's determination to support Vietnam's development.

In 2016, about 30 percent of Millennials listened to the radio using mobile phones and about 48. 2 percent of Spanish people in 2014 admitted to hearing the radio online as they may take heed to it when and where they wanted. And while formally the governments of Bulgaria, Romania and Hungary are not opposing Radio Free Europe's renewed operations, some officials have greeted the opening's return with open skepticism. Bossev, who was convicted of defamation last year and is now filing a complaint at the European Court of Human Rights, also noted that Radio Free Europe's close insurance of his trial raised awareness of the case.

Let women say, 'if you cannot control your sexual excitement, that's your problem not mine. You cannot cover me up because you have a problem. I am not your private property that you will decide for me what I should wear. Where I should go, how far. I will wear kohl if I wish to and if my dark gaze is a problem for you, then don't glance at me. If your eyes stray regardless and if your manhood causes you too much hardship, then hide your eyes behind a thick blindfold'.

India: Ban the Burqa, and Let Women 'Breathe'
9 March, by siawi3
Till the day women continue to don the burqa or ghoonghat, they will be treated as sexual objects, as slaves dedicated to men. Governments and societies cannot allow this
Cameroun : Au nom du roi, des roitelets et de la divine providence
10 mars, par siawi3
Rémanences autoritaire, oligarchique et mâle centrée de l'espace politique camerounais. La dernière élection présidentielle montre que l'ordre politique en vigueur n'a pas été fondamentalement modifié. Il reste structurellement autoritaire, mâlecentré, oligarchique et clientéliste. C'est ce dont témoigne l'expérience du personnel politique féminin camerounais très minoritaire, et, plus généralement, l'invisibilisation structurelle des femmes dans l'espace politique.
Pakistan: Aurat March and the Patriarchal counter reaction
11 March, by siawi3
Last week, outside a shopping mall in the city, two somber men stood holding a banner that read: "Men are guardians of women." In other parts of Pakistan, other self-appointed guardians have been busy tearing down posters that women activists put up to announce Aurat March, a series of rallies across the country to celebrate International Women's Day on March 8.

Authoritarianism, oligarchy, and patriarchy governs the Cameroonian political landscape.
International Women's Day: Feminists, internationalists, anticapitalists
11 March, by siawi3
The call for feminist women's strike connects with a moment in which women are in the front line of the fightbacks against neoliberal policies, in general and in the ways they specifically affect women. The women's strikes challenge gender violence making the link with #metoo, economic violence in wage and income inequality and the effects of austerity, social violence in state repression, violence to women's right to control their own bodies and violence to the planet including that caused by excessive consumption.
Pakistan: What When a Woman Dies?
15 March, by siawi3
Whether in the graveyard or out in the living world, Pakistan's women are denied dignity and equality by those who claim to know God's will. In the struggle for justice they have a long road ahead — longer than in most countries. But time is on the woman's side. It is for us men to march alongside them.
Morocco : Review of the book: 'Sex and Lies' by Leila Slimani
19 March, by siawi3
Indeed, the sex described by Slimani's collaborators is rarely sensual: satisfying male lovers are the exception rather than the rule. Pleasure is only one motivation for sex in this system: marriage and money are also powerful inducements. Some of the most intense encounters women describe are autoerotic, or take place with other women.
Iran-Kurdistan: 'Girl with a Gun'
21 March, by siawi3
'Girl with a Gun' is the autobiography of former Peshmerga and women's rights activist Diana Nammi. 'Girl with a Gun' is an essential testament to women's often overlooked role in revolutionary movements, and a valuable insight into the history of the Middle East. It serves as an intimate study of gendered dynamics within revolutionary movements.
Pakistan's Women's March: Shaking patriarchy 'to its core'
22 March, by siawi3
Thousands of women have marched across Pakistan's main urban centres to mark International Women's Day. It is the third successive year that the Aurat March, women's march, has been held in the country. The theme for this year's march was "Mera Jism, Meri Marzi" (My body, my choice).

About PQDT Open Search
Archaeologists have been interested in relationship between environmental variability and cultural change for the last six decades. By understanding how, when, and why humans adapt to environmental change, archaeologists and anthropologists can better understand the development and complexity of human cultures. In northwest Alaska, archaeologists hypothesize that environmental variability was a major factor in both growing coastal population density, with large aggregated villages and large houses, between 1000 and 500 years ago (ya), and subsequent decreasing population density between 500 ya and the contact era. After 500 ya people are thought to have dispersed to smaller settlements with smaller house sizes in coastal areas, and perhaps, upriver. This settlement pattern was identified through research at four site locations over 30 years ago. The changing geographic distribution of sites, associated settlement size, and house size has not been examined in detail. A more careful examination of changing northwest Alaskan settlement patterns is needed before larger questions about socio-economic organization can be addressed. I use Geographic Information Systems (GIS) to evaluate the evidence for a geographic redistribution of Arctic peoples during the Late Holocene.
I constructed a database of settlement location and site attribute information, specifically the number of houses within each settlement and the size (m 2). Data were collected from a dataset of Western Arctic National Parklands (WEAR), the Alaska Heritage Resource Survey (AHRS) database of archaeological sites in Alaska, 409 unpublished site reports and field notes curated by the National Park Service (NPS) and Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA), and the results of recent fieldwork in northwest Alaska. A total of 486 settlements were identified within the northwest Alaska with 128 settlements having temporal and site attribute data.
I incorporated settlement size data into a GIS database and then carried out global, Moran's I, local Moran's I, and local Getis-Ord spatial analyses to test whether settlement redistribution occurred and if key settlement locations shifted after 500 ya. The site attribute data (number of houses and average size of houses) are used to test the additional aspects of the proposed settlement pattern change after 500 ya. A total of 83 settlements with 465 houses are used to test if the average size of settlements and average house size changed after 500 ya.
The results of the spatial analyses indicate no statistically significant patterns in the spatial distribution of settlements. Site attribute analysis shows no statistical difference in the average number of houses per village or the average size of houses before or after 500 ya. The results of this work build our understanding of regional settlement patterns during the late Holocene. By testing settlement pattern change, i.e. settlement distribution, settlement size, and house size, future research into settlement pattern change can begin to evaluate likely causes for the observed changes. My method, specifically the use of GIS as a method for testing settlement pattern change, can be applied to other regions and temporal scales.

How about a free trial on composting?
Opinion: Letters To The Editor
I see a petition is circulating to make compost containers an opt-out system instead of an opt-in system. Maybe the idea is that the average Oak Parker is considered too stupid to be able to figure out how to opt in to composting or too lazy to actually make the call. Or maybe the idea is that the average Oak Parker is too distracted to notice the charge or too lazy to opt out.
If the objective is to increase composting, the focus should be on motivating people to want to compost, not on nanny-stating them and insulting their intelligence. I'm not interested because it costs $45.90 per quarter and it's not worth $45.90 per quarter to me. No doubt opt-out will result in some people paying for it but not using it, which will enrich Waste Management but do nothing to advance composting.
So do what every consumer business does to get you hooked on their product or service. Give me a free trial and let me decide for myself if I'm actually going to use it and if it's worth the price to me. Maybe I'll decide I like it. Maybe I'll decide to compost but not through the Waste Management mechanism. That's a win for composting even if not for village or Waste Management finances.
Meanwhile, tell me what percentage of Oak Park homes currently pay for composting and what percentage of homes that sign up for it cancel after a year or less. That will give you an unbiased picture of the value Oak Parkers actually place on village-enabled composting.
And if you don't know the answers to those questions, do your homework before circulating petitions.

Lauren Rowles
Athlete Information
Date of Birth
Athlete main content
Lauren Rowles made her Paralympic debut at the Rio 2016 Games just over a year after taking up the sport.
The former wheelchair athlete first tried rowing in early 2015 after a chance meeting with GB Rowing Team staff at Stoke Mandeville Sports Centre.
Lauren teamed up with Laurence Whiteley to enjoy a remarkable debut at the 2015 World Championships in Aiguebelette, France and by the end of the season she had helped to qualify the trunk-arms mixed double scull boat for the Paralympic Games
Despite their brief time together, Lauren and Laurence became the first GB crew to qualify for Rio 2016 as they won their repechage. They then went on to produce a fantastic performance in the final, winning silver as they finished just half-a-second behind Australia.
At Rio 2016, Rowles and Whiteley led from start to finish to win Paralympic gold in the most dominant victory of the day.
Prior to racing on water, Lauren was a wheelchair track athlete and competed for England at the Glasgow 2014 Commonwealth Games in the T53/54 1,500m. She was also crowned England under-16s champion at 100m, 200m and 1,500m during 2014 and captained the Midlands at the UK School Games
In February 2012 Lauren lost the use of her legs when she was diagnosed with a rare paralysing condition which developed overnight. However, she was determined to maintain an active lifestyle and started searching for para-sport opportunities after leaving hospital in July of that year.

Horny goat weed, also known as Epimedium or its Chinese name, Yin Yangshuo is a traditional medicinal herb used for centuries in the Chinese culture.
This substance is part of alternative medicine and it is used for its potential benefits in some medical conditions; some of the most common uses of Horny goat weed include allergic rhinitis (hay fever), painful neuropathies, osteoporosis, and erectile dysfunction.
Oftentimes, this substance is sold in the market as nutritional supplements that may help with the conditions mentioned above.
In this article, we will discuss the benefits and adverse effects of this substance, as well as the subset of people who might need it.
Note that we will exclusively use information that is backed up by reputable medical resources.
Benefits of Horny goat weed
Osteoporosis is a medical condition characterized by decreased bone mineral density (BMD) and frequent fractures; it is mostly seen in older people and has a special predilection for post-menopausal women.
In a 2018 study, researchers found that Epimedium can significantly improve BMD in patients with osteoporosis.
Another paper published in the World Conference on the Pharmacology of Natural and Traditional Medicine found positive effects of Epimedium on osteoporosis.
It concluded the paper by stating that "Recent clinical trials have reported positive effects on bone health, suggesting that compounds or extracts of Epimedium have the potential to be developed as agents, alone or in combination with other drugs, to prevent or delay the onset of osteoporosis and reduce the risk of hip fractures."
Overall, there is growing evidence that horny goat weed also is known as Epimedium may be extremely beneficial for patients with osteoporosis.
Postmenopausal complications
Estrogen levels are quite high in women of reproductive age, and it provides several health benefits, including, a decreased risk in cardiovascular disease, stroke, and osteoporosis.
Unfortunately, once the woman hits menopause, these protective properties disappear and the risk of these diseases increases dramatically.
The good news is that horny goat weed may help to reduce these risks by promoting estrogen release.
A study evaluating the effects of Epimedii Herba water extract on blood lipid and sex hormone levels in 90 postmenopausal women found that after 6 months of medication, the extract decreased total cholesterol and triglyceride levels and significantly increased serum levels of estradiol.
Horny goat weed has been shown to help increase libido in both men and women.
Chronic fatigue
Millions of people suffer from chronic fatigue worldwide, which can pose a real problem since it limits their productivity and performance.
This has led scientists to be on the look for any potential substance with anti-fatigue properties that may replace the unhealthy habits of drinking too much caffeine and other energy drinks.
After years of scientific studies and clinical trials, a substance by the name of icariin showed impressive results in boosting energy and reducing symptoms of chronic fatigue. So, what does this substance have to do with horny goat weed?
This substance is a direct metabolite of Epimedium, which as you know is just another name for horny goat weed.
These claims were supported by many scientific papers, including this one from China.
Horny goat weed and erectile dysfunction
Now we arrive at the most important section of this article; the effects of horny goat weed on erectile dysfunction. But before we discuss these effects, we first need to understand what erectile dysfunction is.
What is erectile dysfunction?
Erectile dysfunction (ED) is defined as the inability to maintain a firm erection long enough to have sexual intercourse. This condition is known in the general population as "impotence".
While occasional erectile problems do occur, they should not be given the diagnosis of ED. This is because almost all men experience it during times of psychological or physical stress.
Diagnosis of erectile dysfunction
To diagnose ED, patients must meet the diagnostic criteria set by the DSM-V.
The criteria include:
- Marked difficulty obtaining an erection during sexual activity.
- Marked difficulty maintaining an erection until the completion of the sexual activity.
- Marked decrease in erectile rigidity.
For the diagnosis of ED to be made, at least one of the three criteria have to be present during 75-100% of sexual activity.
Additionally, the first criterion must be present for a duration of 6 months at a minimum.
Causes of erectile dysfunction?
There are several medical and psychological conditions that can cause erectile dysfunction. These include:
- Cardiovascular disease
- Diabetes mellitus
- Obesity
- Hormonal imbalances (e.g. low testosterone levels)
- Clinical depression
- Anxiety
- Stress
- Certain pharmacological drugs
- Chronic cigarette smoking
- Peyronie's disease
All of these conditions were reported to cause some form of erectile dysfunction, and this list is by no means comprehensive.
How does horny goat weed help with erectile dysfunction?
Horny goat weed exerts its action of aiding with erectile dysfunction by inhibiting Phosphodiesterase 5 or PDE-5, which is the same mechanism of action of some pharmacological drugs used to treat ED such as Viagra.
A double-blind clinical trial studied the effect of Epimedium Supplement on sexual satisfaction in healthy men compared to Viagra.
In the study, 25 healthy men and 13 men who used Viagra were assigned to initially receive daily therapy for 45 days; the daily use of this herb for a minimum of 45 days resulted in a more enhancement of sexual satisfaction than Viagra.
As you can see, the effects of horny goat weed (a.k.a Epimedium) on erectile dysfunction are quite established, and more on-going clinical trials are aiming to use Epimedium in pharmacological drugs in the near future.
Side effects of horny goat weed
High doses of Epimedium can cause adverse effects that range dramatically in severity. The main side effects include:
- Feeling of heat
- Facial flushing
- Hypothyroidism
- Palpitations
- Nausea
Moreover, this supplement should not be used during pregnancy and lactation, as well as in children.

In today's world, telecommunications are more than just a basic service – they are a means to promote development, improve society and save lives. This will be all the more true in the world of tomorrow.\r\n
\r\n
\r\nThe importance of telecommunications was on display in the wake of the earthquake which devastated Haiti earlier this year. Communications technologies were used to coordinate aid, optimize resources and provide desperately sought information about the victims. The International Telecommunications Union (ITU) and its commercial partners contributed scores of satellite terminals and helped to provide wireless communications to help disaster relief and clean-up efforts.\r\n
\r\n
\r\nI welcome those efforts and, more broadly, the work of ITU and others to promote broadband access in rural and remote areas around the world.\r\n
\r\nGreater access can mean faster progress toward the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs). The Internet drives trade, commerce and even education. Telemedicine is improving health care. Earth monitoring satellites are being used to address climate change. And green technologies are promoting cleaner cities.
\r\nAs these innovations grow in importance, so, too, does the need to bridge the digital divide.\r\n
\r\n
\r\nThe theme of this year's observance, "Better Cities, Better Life with ICTs," is a reminder that communications technologies must be employed – and disposed of – in a manner that raises living standards while protecting the environment.\r\n
\r\n
\r\nThe United Nations is committed to ensuring that people everywhere have equitable access to information and communication technologies. On this International Day, let us resolve to fully harness the great potential of the digital revolution in the service of life-saving relief operations, sustainable development and lasting peace.

I don't so much care to discuss current immigration politics, but since that is all the news is covering lately, I thought it would be interesting to look up what immigration was like in England during the Middle Ages. The following article from medievalists.net references England particularly during the 14th – 16th centuries. This period was after the Black Death when the population across Europe was significantly lower and there was a lot more work available.
According to research provided by the Universities of York and Sheffield, approximately 1% of the population of England during this time was made up of immigrants. Today that number is approximately 12% according to this study.
About one out of every hundred people in late medieval England was an immigrant, according to researchers at the universities of York and Sheffield. They have also launched a new database that offers details about 65,000 immigrants who lived in England between 1330 and 1550.
The England's Immigrants project was created by these universities with support from the Arts and Humanities Research Council (AHRC). It is led by Mark Ormrod, of the University of York's Centre for Medieval Studies.
The database offers information on the names, origins, occupations and households of a significant number of foreigners who chose to live and work in England during the fourteenth to sixteenth centuries…
Read the full article at medievalists.net, which also provides links to the research database and other articles of interest.
From the Archaeology News Network:
Their exploits are more linked to the Northern Isles and the west coast of Scotland, with monastries raided, islanders murdered and gold and silver plundered. But new research – and a clutch of archaeological finds – has now suggested that the North East may not have escaped the fury of the Norsemen after all.
Academics at Aberdeen University have been working to fill the "blank space" of Viking activity in Aberdeenshire and Moray, with written history barely touching on the area so far. Using finds recorded through the Treasure Trove system and the input a team of metal detectors in the North East, a picture of possible Viking activity in the old Pictish Kingdom of Fortriu during the 8th, 9th and 10th centuries is now emerging.

The skeletal remains of about 50 medieval individuals have been discovered in shallow graves near the pilgrimage site of a famous seventh-century saint in England.
The human remains, which have been exhumed, may help archaeologists learn more about the medieval era, according to Archaeology Warwickshire, an archaeology and excavation firm. The company plans to study each skeleton to determine its sex and approximate age, and to identify evidence of injuries or diseases preserved in the bones, said Stuart Palmer, the business manager of Archaeology Warwickshire
From Live Science:
The Viking Age may not have started with the plundering of England, but with the peaceful trading of handcrafted combs made out of reindeer antlers, a new study suggests.
Until now, researchers thought the Viking Age began in June 793, when Norwegian Vikings raided Lindisfarne, an island off the northeast coast of England. But new research suggests Vikings were traveling from Norway to Ribe, one of Scandinavia's earliest towns and a lively trading center on the west coast of Denmark, as early as 725, the researchers said.
The Norman Conquest: The Battle of Hastings and the Fall of Anglo-Saxon England
By Marc Morris
Paperback: 464 pages
Publisher: Pegasus; 1 edition (December 15, 2014)
Language: English
A riveting and authoritative history of the single most important event in English history: the Norman Conquest.An upstart French duke who sets out to conquer the most powerful and unified kingdom in Christendom. An invasion force on a scale not seen since the days of the Romans. One of the bloodiest and most decisive battles ever fought.This new history explains why the Norman Conquest was the most significant cultural and military episode in English history. Assessing the original evidence at every turn, Marc Morris goes beyond the familiar outline to explain why England was at once so powerful and yet so vulnerable to William the Conqueror's attack; why the Normans, in some respects less sophisticated, possessed the military cutting edge; how William's hopes of a united Anglo-Norman realm unraveled, dashed by English rebellions, Viking invasions, and the insatiable demands of his fellow conquerors.

"They Found Richard III. So Now What?"
What the remains of the "hunchback" king can teach us about other English royals
The last time Richard III was buried in Leicester, England, he had been taken from a battlefield, slung naked over a horse, stabbed in the buttocks with a dagger and thrown into a shallow grave. That was late August 1485. On Thursday, March 26, 2015, Richard will be buried again. This time will be different.
From Fox News:
The oldest surviving cannonball in England has been rediscovered on a medieval battlefield.
The cannonball, which was lost for several years, was likely used in the Battle of Northampton in 1460, one of the battles in the decades-long Wars of the Roses. The giant ball has two large dents from a few bounces, as well as a gouge mark that contains fragments of sand from the area.
From the BBC:
An early edition of Magna Carta has been found in a Victorian scrapbook during a search of a council's archives
The discovery has come months ahead of the 800th anniversary of the sealing of Magna Carta in Runnymede in 1215.
From the BBC:
Henry VIII: Britain's most famous king. Big, bold and brash, he is the epitome of 'Merrie England'.
Ruling between 1509 and 1547, his marriages to a succession of six women became something of a Tudor soap opera and probably his most talked-about legacy.
So, as king of England and one of Europe's most eligible royals, what did he want in a wife, and, more specifically, a queen?

Final Witness
Final Witness3,63 41 5 Autor: Simon Tolkien Czyta: Simon Tolkien
It's the trial - and scandal - of the decade: Greta Grahame, the beautiful young wife of Minister of defence Sir Peter Robinson, is accused of conspiring to murder her predecessor, Peter's first wife, Anne.
The prosecution case depends heavily on the evidence of one witness - Greta's sixteen-year-old stepson, Thomas.
A dreamy, bookish boy, Thomas was present but hidden on the night two men broke into their ancestral home, The House of the Four Winds, and killed his mother. His testimony steadfastly links Greta to the hitmen.
But the boy's motives are unclear. Is he so crazed by grief that he would frame his stepmother for murder? Or are his feelings toward Greta more complicated than anyone realizes? Might he actually be jealous of his father, jealous enough to destroy what remains of his own family? Or is he telling the truth - that this cunning young woman will stop at nothing in her pursuit of wealth and status?
Simon Tolkien combines compelling courtroom drama and classic psychological suspense in this sharply etched page-turner.

Potential Spoilers For Devil May Cry 5 Ahead!
Recently on popular forum ResetEra, a leak on what seems to be the release date, story, and features of the fifth Devil May Cry installment has appeared. Now I don't know about you guys but I, for one, am extremely excited to hear about this, It has been a long time since DMC4 and the potential of having the sequel to it in my hands as early as next year? I'm all a shiver.
So let's jump right to it, and as I've stated in the header above, beware of potential spoilers as this is not 100% confirmed to be true!
The Possible Release And Production of DMCV
The post states early on that the release date for Devil May Cry 5 (or DMCV, different from its usual numerical system) will be during the fiscal calendar of the year 2019. This could mean sometime between April 2018 to March 2019, however it is not confirmed that the title hasn't been pushed to November 2019. So 2018 may just be wishful thinking… But hey, I'm an optimist!
Looking at it optimistically, there is a reason to think the game could be released in 2018. The forum post goes on to say that, currently, the game has been in development for two years, with pre-production starting early in 2015. What's more is that development has been said to have run smoothly with no real hiccups (a shock considering this year of nothing but hiccups for developers), and progression has been smooth sailing.
There was also speculation in the forum about the newest installment being an exclusive for the PlayStation 4. Though, it was later reiterated that the PlayStation 4 may have the game first but a release for the PC wouldn't be too far behind it. So, if true, rejoice PC fans! Timed exclusive it is!
Nonetheless, we truly won't know until the game is announced, and when it is we'll hopefully see the trailer that the forum post talks about. The original poster says that the trailer will be about 2 minutes long and the main focus being characters, cutscenes and an ambitious storyline that is said to appeal to a broader audience.
Characters And Story Spoilers Galore!
Where we last left off in Devil May Cry 4 quite a bit of serious stuff had just gone down, and to be honest, a lot of questions needed answering.
So you'll be pleased to hear that this new installment has the potential to pick off directly after Devil May Cry 4. And to make it even better there is also the possibility of once again being able to play as both Dante and Nero, though there is also the possibility of a third character being playable too. A very powerful character, possibly new to the series. Personally, I'm hoping to play as Lady or Trish, but don't tell any other DMC character I said that.
As for the character's personalities, Dante is supposed to be getting a lot more serious in DMCV. A new side of Dante that we as players have not seen before since DMC2. It is reported that "Dante of course still plays with his enemies and has his usual over the top flair, but this game is going to be more personal for him," which of course makes it more personal for us as players too.
Nero, however, will have his own problems due to a confrontation with Vergil, confirming their relationship as father and son. It is guessed that Vergil may also be a playable character, but like nearly everything in this article, it is not confirmed. If there are to be various playable characters, it seems obvious that these swaps of characters will be during key moments in the game as the story progresses.
The antagonist of the game has been said to be the "Prince of Darkness" (the title normally referring to Mundus, though the title may have transferred to another character) and a compelling enemy to all characters involved.
Sounds interesting, no? It definitely makes me want to buy it to the point I'll be disappointed if this is all just a very good hoax on ResetEra's part.
Last But Not Least, Gameplay and System
For this last section, there was a LOT to go through, so I'll only post what I believe to be absolutely need-to-know. Still, at the end of the article if you want to know more then feel free to click on the original post and see for yourselves!
- Movement outside of combat has been streamlined to match the open nature of the game.
- The camera pulls back during big fights. This helps make the fight seem smoother.
- There is NO stamina bar. Good or bad?
- Animations are being improved so they appear less stiff.
- There WILL be online integration involved, but no multiplayer or PVP.
- More environment interactivity than any previous DMC game.
- Console is targeted for 60 frames per second like the previous DMC games.

September 2018, mid-month Stardate
The degrees below are rounded up to next degree. If that's confusing, it can help to remember that the date 2018 is in the 21st century rather than the 20th.
As Mercury reaches 18 Virgo, the degree of the most recent new Moon on September 9th, Hurricane Florence is battering the East Coast. Slowly, too, which brings more rain and more flooding to the area. I'm glad it didn't arrive on the 24th's full Moon at 2 degrees Aries/Libra at 7:52 pm PDT, because a full Moon creates higher tides. I'd anticipate the situation on the East Coast and along the inland path of the storm will continue at least until the Moon's exact square to Neptune, ruler of floods and the sea, on September 15th at 10:13 pm PDT, then begin to abate.
Mars is applying to (approaching) an exact square to Uranus, at 2 degrees Aquarius and 2 degrees Taurus respectively, on September 18th at 4:00 pm PDT. If you have natal planets or points in the early degrees of the fixed signs, Taurus, Leo, Scorpio or Aquarius, you may experience some unexpected (Uranus) challenges (Mars). If you do, stand your ground and/or face your fears without losing your temper. Weather-wise, the applying square may relate to the tornados expected along or near Florence's path.
For people with natal planets or points in the middle-ish of the cardinal signs, Aries, Cancer, Libra and Capricorn, remember that Pluto is applying to a station at 19 degrees Capricorn on the 30th. Anything ruled by or related to your mid-cardinal planets or points will continue to intensify under this stationary Pluto, peaking around the 30th. Remember, however, that the separating Pluto station lasts until November 25th, and expect some lessening of intensity a few days after Thanksgiving, which is on November 22nd this year. The rule of thumb is that we feel applying (building, approaching exact) aspects or stations more than separating ones (waning, leaving the exact aspect or degree).
What do Pluto transits call for? And Pluto stations? Pluto stations affect everyone, and are stronger for you personally if you also have Pluto transiting any of your natal planets or points that are near, squaring or opposing Pluto's stationary degree, 19 Capricorn in this case.
I think you can see these energies at work in the geopolitics of today just as well as I can. Some Capricorn-ruled issues and events already at a high boil may come to a head around the 30th and remain intense until after Thanksgiving: ambition, government regulations and the heads of government, leadership, self-sufficiency, patriarchal issues around control, the pursuit of power at all cost, and in this case, failure to address and adapt to the harsh environment and its causes that are becoming an ever-greater threat. Added to the mix is the Neptune station that starts coming into orb on the 29th. We may be confused (Neptune) about what's actually happening in these Capricorn-ruled areas. The station is also a call to include a spiritual (Neptune) approach to those issues, including more compassion for and action on behalf of those who are suffering. As the Dalai Lama once said, "The 21st century will be spiritual, or it will not be."
If you're eligible to vote, please vote in the U.S. mid-term elections! If you're not, please register to vote if you possibly can, the earlier the better.
