Odin's Ravens (Blackwell Pages Series #2)
Seven kids, Thor's hammer, and a whole lot of Valkyries are the only things standing against the end of the world.
When thirteen-year-old Matt Thorsen and Fen and Laurie Brekke, modern-day descendants of Thor and Loki, discovered they were fated to take the places of the Norse Gods in a battle against the apocalypse, they thought they knew how things would play out. Gather the other descendants, defeat a giant serpent, and save the world. No problem, right?
Wrong. The descendants' journey grinds to a halt when their friend Baldwin is poisoned and Matt, Fen, and Laurie must travel to the Underworld in hopes of saving him. From there, they'll have to reunite the challengers, find Thor's hammer, and save humanity - that is, if they can survive a journey filled with enough monstrous beasts and godly enemies to make Matt and his friends legends in their own right.

About the Author
K.L. Armstrong and M.A. Marr had been friends for several years and found themselves spending hours talking about mythology and monsters. With that shared interest, in addition to K.L.'s love for tackling creatures in video games when not writing (and sometimes when she's supposed to be writing), their monster and myth fixation, and the books they read with their 11- to 13-year-old sons, they knew they had to write the Blackwell Pages.

If there was one thing worse than seeing a giant's head rise from the ground, it was seeing two giant heads. Belching fire. Still, if they killed Matt, his soul wouldn't have far to travel ... considering he was already in the afterlife.
"At least it's only one giant," Matt said as they crouched behind a rock.
Fen gave him a look.
"What? It's true. A single two-headed giant is better than two one-headed giants."
And this, Matt realized, was what their world had come to. A week ago, his biggest worry was failing his science fair project. Now he was taking comfort in the thought that he faced only one fifty-foot-tall, fire-breathing giant.
It was a Jotunn from Norse mythology. The most famous were the frost giants, but they lived in a world of ice, and there was no ice in this smoke- shrouded wasteland, just rock and more rock, as far as the eye could see.
The Jotunn looked like a two-headed WWE wrestler on nuclear-powered steroids, insanely muscle-bound, with reddish-orange skin that gleamed as if it were on fire. The giant stood in a crevasse up to its thighs, but even so, Matt still had to crane his neck to look up at the heads.
Matt touched the amulet on his chest. It was vibrating, warning him that something dangerous was near, just in case he couldn't, you know, see a fifty- foot flaming giant. The amulet was Thor's Hammer, worn by all the Thorsens of Blackwell, South Dakota, because they really were "Thor's sons"—distant descendants of the Norse god ... which is what got Matt into this predicament in the first place.
Matt dimly heard Laurie say that they would have to pass the Jotunn—answering something Fen had said. He looked over at Fen and Laurie—the Brekke cousins, also from Blackwell, descendants of the trickster god Loki. Matt was about to speak when a distant roar made him jump.
"It's okay," Laurie whispered. "The giant is still talking to itself. That was something else."
Of course it was. He laughed a little at how calmly she had said it. She was right, though. The Jotunn hadn't noticed them yet.
"It's distracted," he murmured. "Good." Matt pointed at a line of jagged rocks to their left. "Get over there. Behind the rocks. Fast!"
"Shouldn't we—?" Fen began, but Matt waved him forward, and Laurie nudged him along.
As they raced for the rocks, Matt kept his gaze fixed on the giant. He herded the cousins behind the biggest boulders and motioned for them to hunker down. He did the same. Then he took another look.
"Shouldn't we have run that way?" Fen pointed in the other direction. "We could have ducked behind those rocks."
Matt shook his head. "That would lead us right to the giant."
"Um, yeah. Kinda the idea, Thorsen. How are we going to get the jump on it from over here? These rocks lead away from the freaking fire monster."
"Yes, because that's where we're going. Away from it."
"But Baldwin is that way," Laurie said, pointing past the giant.
They'd discovered that one of Laurie's powers was the ability to locate other descendants of the gods of the North. In this case, she was homing in on their friend Baldwin, who was stuck in the afterlife.
"Laurie's right," Fen said. "This is no short detour, and we don't know what we'll find along it. Maybe more giants. We should just fight this one."
"Do you see how big that thing is?" Matt said. "It could swallow a troll."
"But we fought three trolls."
"And barely escaped with our lives," Laurie said. "Matt's right. We should try to avoid this guy."
"Great. Side with Thorsen again," Fen muttered.
Matt could tell Fen thought he was wimping out. A few days ago, that would have stung enough to make Matt reconsider. But he'd learned a few things since then. Sometimes being a leader meant wimping out of a fight. They weren't playing around here. They could die. Their friend Baldwin had died, and that's why they were trekking through the underworld, to bring him back to the land of the living. Even then, there was no guarantee they could.
Fen agreed to the long route. There wasn't much else he could do, being outnumbered, but he kept grumbling that they'd probably run into two fire giants now. Finally, Matt had to ask him, nicely, to pipe down before the giant overheard. Fen didn't like that, either.
Matt adjusted his shield over his shoulder and led the way along the row of jagged rocks. Sometimes they could walk upright. Sometimes they had to creep along bent over. Now and then they needed to dart between rocks. The closer they got to the Jotunn, the worse the smell got. Sulfur. Matt recognized it now, from chemistry. Soon, he couldn't just smell the fire—he could hear it crackling, deep in the canyon, and he could feel it, waves that made sweat roll down his face. The air shimmered with the heat, and he had to keep blinking to focus.
Laurie glanced over, but Matt waved for her to keep going. They were alongside the Jotunn now, the stink and the heat unbearable. Still, the giant was busy talking to ... well, talking to itself apparently, its two heads deep in conversation. Matt could hear the voices, crackling and snapping and roaring, the words indecipherable, the sound like fire itself.
It doesn't matter what they're saying. They're too busy to notice—
One of the heads stopped talking. And turned their way ... just as Matt was stepping from behind a rock. He stumbled back, arms shooting out to keep the others from doing the same.
"One's looking," he whispered.
Behind him, Laurie crept to the other side of the rock to peek out that way. Matt resisted the urge to pull her back. He could barely see from his direction—the angle was wrong. It seemed as if the heads were both turned toward them. One said something to the other, and the giant shrugged. As the heads talked, Laurie snuck back to him.
"I think they're trying to figure out what to do," she whispered. "If we want to make a run for it, now's the time."
Matt nodded. The heads did seem to be debating their next move. The left one obviously wanted to check out whatever it had seen. The right head wasn't interested. Then the massive left arm grabbed the edge of the canyon as if to pull the giant out. The right head shook and sputtered something, but the left half started pulling itself out of the canyon in a weird, lopsided climb. Finally, the right head gave in, hissing smoke, and the other huge, muscled arm reached up ....
"Now can we run?" Laurie said.
Matt hunched over and ushered them to the next rock and then the next. When the ground shook, Matt thought it was just his amulet quivering. Then Fen swore under his breath, and Matt knew he felt it, too. He prairie-dogged up and saw—
A fire giant. Which was, of course, what he knew he'd see, but there was a difference between watching it from a couple hundred feet away and seeing it right there. Okay, maybe not "right there," but close enough. More than close enough. It was no more than twenty feet away, so near that Matt could smell fire.
When one head spoke to the other, wisps of smoke wafted out. Sparks flew as the other head replied. Matt could see flames inside their mouths. Did they spit fire? That wasn't anything he'd read in the myths, but they were learning not everything was the way it was in the old stories.
"A sword?" Fen whispered. "Seriously? It needs a sword, too?"
Matt's gaze dropped to the monster's belt. "No, it needs two swords, apparently. Flaming swords."
"Of course," Fen muttered.
"You still want to fight it?" Matt said. " 'Cause now's your chance."
Fen scowled.
"Hey, you might distract it," Matt said, grinning. "Take one for the team."
"I thought that was your job, Thorsen."
"Stop it," Laurie whispered. When they did, she said, "Do you think we should run?"
Matt peeked over the rock again and then shook his head. "It doesn't know where we are. It's still just looking around. Follow me."
He set out, hunched over behind the rocks. When he dared peer out, the Jotunn was still moving, but slowly, looking from side to side. They reached a spot where the rocks were little more than boulders, and they had to almost crawl then, creeping along as they tried not to inhale dust and sand from the rocky ground. That wasn't easy, especially for Matt, with an ancient Viking shield on his back. He had to stay far enough from the rocks to keep from scraping the shield against them. His amulet wasn't helping, either. Now it was vibrating so hard that Matt swore he could hear it.
When they saw a row of taller rocks, Matt let out a sigh of relief ... until he drew close enough to notice the ten-foot gap between their row and that one.
"It's not too bad," Laurie whispered. "We just need to time it."
Matt nodded. "I'll watch the giant. You get in front of me. When I tap your back, run. Fen—"
"Follow. Yeah, I get it." Did he look annoyed? Matt couldn't tell, and this wasn't the time to worry about it.
Laurie inched forward and got into position, crouched as low as she could get, ready to run on his signal. Matt peeked over the rocks. The Jotunn had stopped. Each head looked a different way—neither their way. Matt tapped Laurie. She sprinted, with Fen right behind her.
Matt let them get halfway across the gap, then took one step out, his gaze fixed on the fire giant. A second step. A third ...
Blue light flashed. That's all he saw, a flash so bright it was like a stun grenade. He staggered back. Laurie let out half a yelp before stifling it.
Both Laurie and Fen were staring at him. At his chest. He looked down to see his amulet sparking a brilliant blue. His hands flew to cover it. A roar boomed through the air—a crackling, unearthly roar. Matt swung around and saw the Jotunn coming straight for them. No, coming straight for him.
He glanced at the cousins. "Run!"
As Matt turned to the Jotunn and raced toward it, Fen shouted, "Wrong direction! I really wish you'd stop running toward danger, Thorsen!"
As Matt ran, the amulet vibrated, but there was none of the usual heat. It was almost cold. The burn of ice. The amulet glowed so bright now that it cut through the swirling smoke and lit the dim wastelands like the midday sun.
The Jotunn had stopped running. It stood there, both heads tilted, looking at him in confusion. Matt pulled the shield from his shoulder and slung it over his arm. All four eyes of the Jotunn widened.
"Vingthor," one of the heads rumbled.
Vingthor. Battle Thor.
Not exactly ... but Matt still smiled. Adrenaline tore through him, sparking and sizzling like the amulet, and when his hand shot out, it wasn't even a conscious action. He just did it, as naturally as breathing. There was a deafening crack as ice shot from his fingertips. Yes, ice. A blast of white that froze into a shard of solid ice as it flew. It hit the Jotunn in the stomach and sent the giant crashing to the ground so hard the vibration nearly knocked Matt onto his butt.
Matt stood there, grinning.
I can do this. I can really do ...
The Jotunn sprang up. It didn't struggle up, dazed, like the trolls had—it leaped to its feet like a gymnast and barreled toward Matt. His hand shot out to launch another ice bolt. And it worked—the ice flew from his fingers and whipped straight at the Jotunn. But the giant's massive fist swung, hit the ice bolt, and shattered it into a thousand harmless slivers.
"Matt! Come on!" Laurie shouted.
Matt turned and ran. Ran as fast as he could, the ground shaking under his feet. The Jotunn roared, and the heat of its roar scorched Matt's back.
"Run!" he yelled to Fen and Laurie. "Go!"
They took off behind the row of rocks. Matt veered to the left before he reached them. He was heading for another row of rocks, farther down, to keep the Jotunn away from the cousins. Then he saw the fissure—a crack in the rocks, maybe three feet across. If he could get down in there, the Jotunn couldn't reach him. He ran over and raced alongside the crack, getting a look down. It tapered off past the opening. The lowest point he could see was maybe ten feet down. Too far to jump. He should—
The Jotunn roared with a gust of heat that made Matt gasp. Sparks blasted him, burning his skin, singeing holes in his shirt. He spun, and the giant was right there, a flaming sword in each hand. One blade headed straight for him. Matt swung his shield up, but even as he did, he realized his mistake. Flaming sword. Wooden shield.
His amulet flared again, and cold ice shot down his arm and into his hand. There was a blast of white as snow whipped up and swirled around his shield arm. The flaming sword struck the wood with a thunderous clang. The blow knocked Matt clear off his feet. He fell backward, and as he did, he remembered where he'd been standing. On the edge of a chasm.
There was no time to grab anything. No time to even right himself. He fell backward into the fissure, his head hitting the rock side with an explosion of pain so intense he blacked out. He came to and found himself wedged as far down as he could get in the crevasse. He lay there, looking up, not daring to move, certain he'd broken something, probably broken everything. Then the Jotunn's two heads appeared over the edge of the chasm. One mouth opened. Fire blasted. Matt got his shield up just in time. A layer of ice snapped over the wood, and the fire bounced off.
The other mouth opened. Smoke billowed, and Matt thought, That's it? Really? Then the smoke hit him, so thick he choked and sputtered, eyes watering as he gasped for breath.
Matt yanked his shirt up over his nose and mouth. Then he flipped over and began to awkwardly crawl with his shield slung over his shoulder, protecting his back. Not easy to do when there wasn't a flat bottom. His feet kept sliding farther down into the fissure, and he almost got his shoe stuck more than once.
It felt like he had indeed broken everything, but he kept moving as fast as he could. The fissure dipped, getting deeper, and soon he couldn't feel the heat against his back. He glanced over his shoulder to see the Jotunn reaching into the chasm, but he was too far down.
"Hey!" a voice shouted. "Hey, you! Fire creep!"
Fen's voice echoed through the wasteland. When Matt looked up, he saw the Jotunn's two heads looking every which way, as if they couldn't find the source of the voice. Matt crawled faster. Fen kept shouting. Finally, with a grunt, the giant took off, ground shaking as it ran.
Matt grabbed the side of the fissure and began crawling up. When he popped his head out, the Jotunn was a few hundred feet away, looking around wildly.
"Matt!" It was Laurie, whispering loudly.
A hand appeared from behind a rock. Matt took one last look at the Jotunn, then heaved himself out of the fissure and ran for the cover of the rocks, where Laurie waited. When he reached her, he checked for Fen, to be sure he was safe. He seemed to be. He was keeping his distance from the giant and had gone silent now that Matt had escaped.
The Jotunn kept looking around, heads muttering to each other after each scan of the rocky plain. It checked the crevasse a few times, as if Matt might suddenly appear there. Finally, the giant lumbered back toward the chasm where it had first appeared. As it climbed down into it, Fen came along, jogging silently behind the rocks. Matt waited until he caught up, then the three of them set out again.
"You need to rest," Laurie whispered as they made their way across the rocky plain. The landscape had flattened out and the smoke had dispersed, but the ruined city was still a distant smudge against the endless twilight. The home of Helen, ruler of the afterlife. That's where they'd been headed, presuming that's where they'd find Baldwin.
"You can barely walk," she continued. "We've been up all night and hiking all day."
Matt shook his head. "We have a long way—"
"Fine." She raised her voice so Fen could hear. "I'm sorry, guys, but I really need a break."
Matt knew she didn't. He also knew that if he dared say so, Fen would snap and snarl at him for pushing his cousin too hard.

After reading the first novel in the book series The Blackwell Pages, Loki's Wolves by authors K.L. Armstrong and M.A. Marr—I couldn't wait to read the next installment in the series. Odin's Ravens was intense, awesome and tons of Norse mythology as main characters Fen, Laurie and Matt try to stop the ensuing end of the world, Ragnarok. I wasn't really sure what to expect from the novel, especially since Loki's Wolves held a lot of surprise twists and turns that I didn't see coming. In Odin's Ravens takes place right after where Loki's Wolves left off. Fen, Laurie and Matt have all headed straight to Helen's realm, the land of the dead, to get their friend Baldwin back in hopes of re-writing the sequence of myths and stop Ragnarok from coming. Heading into Helen's realm, the trio faces threats they've never faced before, like two-headed jotuns, zombies and evil zombie kings who will stop at nothing to thwart Matt's plans. However as their adventure continues, Matt and the cousins find new allies, old friends and Valkyries all ready for the end of days to arrive. What the trio doesn't expect are for old faces to make reappearances, secrets to be revealed and a choice to be made for when Ragnarok arrives. Odin's Ravens has messed me up. And I mean that in a really good way. The entire time I spent reading can be broken up like this: I was either a) On the edge of my seat, hoping that nothing went wrong b) freaking out because the possibility of something going wrong was very real or c) something wrong would happen and I had no idea how Matt, Laurie and Fen would go about fixing it. Odin's' Ravens is written in a way that will leave readers not only intrigued but also unsure of what will come next, with twists and turns just waiting to reveal themselves. Readers who have read Loki's Wolves know that Matt, Fen and Laurie are left on a quest to find mjolnir and avert the end of the world. Yeah, totally cool man. Except that Odin's Ravens takes that and shows that there may not get to be such a hopeful, simple outcome with Ragnarok fast approaching. As I said before things just get bad, bad, bad for the characters or make it look like things are about to go pretty bad. It made for an exciting story and the novel's conclusion—readers will be left begging for more. To know what will happen next (because seriously it ends on such a high note). A big thing in Odin's Ravens is character development. In Loki's Wolves there's still a lot of feuding between Fen and Matt, neither of them really consider each other friends at first, Fen starts off as a cutthroat little crap—but that all changes in Odin's Ravens. Fen's character changes so much in the novel and it's not hard to notice, he grows loyal to the group that he's with, fesses up to things he wouldn't in the novel prior. Plus characters with smaller roles in the last novel return and are expanded on a little bit more. There are still a lot of questions that have been left wandering through my mind ever since Odin's Ravens has reached its end. What happens next is the first that comes to mind, the next being do things resolve? Does anybody die in Ragnarok? Will I be left weeping over fictional characters? Only the authors know, but I have a pretty good feeling that the next novel will leave readers on emotional rollercoasters as Odin's Ravens did. I would have to recommend this series to readers who are big fans of Norse mythology. Don't let the fact that this is a middle-grade novel deter you, the writing is still pretty amazing and the plot is great. If you want a novel that is non-stop action and adventure with no romance involved you've gotta give The Blackwell Pages a read. Like, right now.
Too much going on in one book I felt like there is too much going on in one book. The tweens go through adventure after adventure without pause. There's barely any time for a break before something new comes up. While this can sometimes make for a fast-paced, thrilling story, it didn't work for this story. Rather, it felt like too much is trying to be crammed in too much in one book, resulting in a lack of focus to the story. On top of that, the tweens don't really know what they're doing and often rely on other people to tell them what to do; instead of solving things themselves, they stumble around until divine intervention turns them in a different direction. The multiple POV didn't work for me either. While I like multiple POVs when the different narrators contribute an important perspective to the story, it doesn't do more than give us insight into different characters' thoughts here. It wasn't like they got separated, or one person knew something that another person didn't and it was important for us to know. Here, I feel like it's unncessary for the most part and actually detracted from the story because it jumps around from narrator to narrator so much and even made small skips in time that created awkward gaps in the storyline. I do like the team. They're a group of likable characters in their own ways. Matt is expected to be the leader and champion despite the lack of experiences to draw from. Laurie wants to fight, but the others keep telling her to stay back. Baldwin is easy going and amiable. Owen wants to help but has to stay back because of his powers. And I have a soft spot for Fen especially because he keeps trying to do the right thing and being awkward going about it. The group dynamics are fun and filled with good humor. However, the dialogue often seems forced and tends to drag, as if it's placed there for the sake of conversation. With one more book to go, it doesn't feel like the tweens have matured enough to take on Ragnarok. The biggest thing going on plotwise here is that they have achieved some important items and goals that may help them in their final battle. There is also the discovery of the brains behind the Raiders and the nasty cliffhanger the story left us on. While I wouldn't recommend this book to MG-fantasy readers as there are better ones out there, chances are high that I'll pick up Thor's Serpents because I've grown attached to some characters, and I'm interested in seeing how this all goes down.
I like it, but the story plot gets really confusing at some spots. They need to organize it more. Otherwise its a great book and I would reccomend it.

When more than 100 delegates from 16 countries gathered in London for the first ever Global Helium Summit, the trends, technologies and dynamics of the helium supply chain were in focus like never before.
Hosted by gasworld Conferences, the summit was the first event of its kind and provided a platform for discussion and knowledge exchange about one of the hottest topics in the scientific community.
A global attendance from the gases and equipment industry, end-users, consultants and researchers, and the scientific sector alike underlined the scale of the challenges faced in the helium business. A veritable who's-who of science, cryogenics, technology and end-users included CERN, Oxford Instruments, STFC, Siemens Magnet Technology, Baker Hughes, ExxonMobil, RASGAS and Shell International Petroleum Co. Ltd.
This was in addition to an industrial gas and equipment audience that included Air Liquide, The Linde Group, Air Products, Praxair Inc., MATHESON, Messer Group, Westfalen AG, Iwatani Corporation, SOL S.p.A, Cryofab Inc., and M1 Engineering. Further still, an emerging major player in the global helium business came in force to the event with several delegates - Gazprom. All of whom had gathered at a crucial time in the global helium market. While the strong demand for helium has remained steady, a number of shortcomings in supply have led to worldwide shortages, across a wide range of end-user sectors. Against this backdrop, fears have intensified concerning the future fate of the BLM-operated US Federal Helium Reserve in Texas, as the clock ticks on a plan for future governance.
These dynamics, as well as ongoing questions about the future supply chain through to 2020, all made up a both pressing and progressive agenda at the summit - an agenda that began with Air Products' Director of Helium Sourcing and Supply Chain, Walter L. Nelson. As recently as May, Nelson was speaking at a US Senate Hearing to discuss the proposed Helium Stewardship Act of 2013. Legislation to complete the privatisation of the Federal Government's helium stockpile is an important and serious matter, as Nelson reflected at the summit.
"I'd like to start by thanking John Raquet and the gasworld team for organising this Helium Summit - without question 2013 is set to be one of the most dynamic and industry changing years, with three new helium sources expected to come on-line along with a determination of the future for the US BLM reservoir. 2013 will certainly be an interesting chapter in the helium history book," he opened.
"The global demand for helium is currently limited today by supply. The helium industry is effectively 'sold-out' and most helium suppliers have been, or are currently under some type of product allocation…Global helium historical demand growth rates have been 3-4% per year, led most recently by Asia at 6-10% annually. Future global growth rates are expected to be within similar ranges between 3-5%," Nelson continued.
"More than 75% of the helium produced today comes from natural gas production in the US. Approximately 130 million cubic meters of helium are produced in the US each year, of which about 60% is the by-product of private natural gas production from the Hugoton and Riley Ridge fields and 40% is sourced from the US BLM helium reservoir in Amarillo, Texas."
"This recent history of supply problems proves one thing: if the US Government doesn't take legislative action soon to allow for continued operation of the US BLM system, the current helium shortages will child's play compared to the dire situation that helium users will face."
Nelson went on to explain the BLM and Congressional actions, including his own testimony to Congress and view on the matter, while also discussing helium conservation and recycling. Nelson was followed to the stage by Nick Haines, Head of Global Helium Source Development at Linde Global Helium. Haines also discussed US helium and Government status and described the regulatory history of the US Federal Helium Reserve from the 1920s through the 1960s and to toward present day, including the Helium Privitisation Act (HPA) of 1996.
Haines compared the two proposed structures or drafts for future regulation of the US Federal Helium Reserve and offered, "Overall, our view is that the House Bill could be quite disruptive to the industry; the Senate Bill, with some revisions, could be workable."
Air Liquide's Gerard Tan, Director of the Department for Helium and Rare Gases, moved the spotlight to another of the world's major helium sources - and an important future source - as he discussed Qatar as the next step for helium stability.
Tan explained, "Qatar has had one of the largest helium supply since 2005…In 2010 Air Liquide announced that it had been awarded a second contract by RASGAS for the large turnkey helium plant construction to be installed at Ras Laffan; this new unit will be the largest in the world."
"The combined production of the two sites is expected to reach 58 million cubic metres per year, making Qatar one of the largest producers of helium in the world. That could be around 25% of the production in the world. Qatar will continue to be the second-largest producer of helium in the world, after the US."
"With the new capacity coming on-stream in Qatar, we should see an end to this current level of shortage in the global market. Nevertheless, we should not rest on our laurels. A clear gap will come in 2020 when the reserves (in the US) are fully depleted. This means all stakeholders must fully focus on finding new reserves and resources for helium."
Application growth
When the agenda resumed after a short interval, first to the stage was Global Gases' Phil Kornbluth, a veteran of the helium business and a regular commentator on the industry. He gave a simple history of the global helium market and sourcing developments through the decades, as well as his own take on both the regulatory events affecting the US BLM system and the emergence of new sources around the world. Kornbluth also pondered whether another new end-user application might emerge to rival magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in terms of helium consumption.
Cryo Diffusion's Martin Woodhouse then took to the summit stage to address helium dewars and transport vessels, and designs optimised for outstanding performance. A lively Q&A session followed, which then led to the lunch break. In the afternoon, the focus was geared more toward applications and the future, with Siemens' Dr. M'hamed Lakrimi describing the growth of the MRI business, the installed MRI base globally, emerging healthcare systems and developments in magnet technologies - a major consumer of supercool liquid helium and the largest end-user market for helium.
Gazprom Marketing & Trading's Didier Lebout followed, giving a brief exploration of the company's activities and its gas network, before turning to the East Siberian Gas Programme - essentially a resource that could shift the whole dynamics of the global helium supply chain.
Richard Clarke, of 4He Solutions, offered a new take on the helium supply challenges, as he discussed unconventional helium and the what this method of production could offer the supply chain in the next decade, and beyond.
Touching on the air separation process at the heart of the gases industry, he encouraged, "The gases industry is advanced in separating and producing molecules from air. Maybe a percent or two of world helium in the decades to come could come from air separation." Clarke also explored venting and how much helium is currently lost to the atmosphere.
The Airship Association's Peter Ward concluded the day's presentations, alluding to the new generation of airships that might just prove to be the next big consumer of helium, in much the same way as MRI emerged and grew in the last 30 years.
Spiritus Group's John Raquet, also Publisher at gasworld, closed the event after a brief debate and reflected, "Supply is going to change; what we have found today is that the supply side is going to change quite dramatically over the next six months alone. There will be more change going forward in the supply chain."
"A take-away from this, is that actually there's optimism, there's growth that is going to occur. No-one has mentioned a decline here today; there is growth to be expected in this business. And we have heard some valid points about the potential future unconventional resources too."

Chairman of the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine Andriy paruby believes that holding elections in the occupied territories of Donbass is possible only if all points of the Minsk agreements, as well as provide security. He declared it in interview "Interfax-Ukraine".
According to him, it is necessary to create the preconditions for the mechanism of expression.
"Discussion on elections must be philosophical in nature and not just technical. And for this to be the preconditions that would ensure the mechanism for the election," he said.
The speaker stressed that elections are the Supreme instrument of democracy that can only work if you create a set of freedoms – of speech and choice, and safety.
"For example, closing borders (uncontrolled part of the Russian-Ukrainian border, – ed.) is a technical thing that can be identified by date and media – are war, are the guards. The holding of elections is not a technical thing," said Parubiy.
Related news: to Finance elections in the Donbas while it is impossible, – the Immortal
The Chairman of the Ukrainian Parliament considers unacceptable the conduct of elections, when the streets of settlements of Donbass there are fighters with guns.
However, he stressed that "elections are the top of the pyramid to which it is possible to get simply by ensuring that all of the above".
"I am a supporter of the Minsk agreements, to our citizens in the temporarily occupied territory, and other citizens of Ukraine can exercise your right to choose the leaders who will operate on the principle of trust, not who has more of a gang of militants", – said Parubiy.
On the eve of President of Ukraine Petro Poroshenko said that already there is in fact a coherent concept of the legislation for holding local elections in certain districts of Donetsk and Lugansk regions. The head of state noted that the elections in Donbas possible only after safety, the introduction of the OSCE police mission deployment and the return of Kiev control over the border.

Orchard Beach Criterium Race Report
Orchard beach, I describe this race to most of my friends, co-workers and family members as a race that most resembles, NASCAR. A nice fairly wide oval short track. Two turns, and one swooping corner. The sprint is over in a blink of an eye, this makes orchard beach fun and unique. Our race would start as the clouds would start to break up and there would be intermittent sunshine. It felt pretty good to be racing and not having to wear leg or arm warmers (and not have to travel below the mason dixon). A steady pace, and an early break kept the field at decent pace. I worked with my fellow teammates to hold back the field. Who at first seemed content with letting the break dangle like a carrot tied in front of a rabbit. This pattern would repeat itself a few times throughout the race, without anything sticking. The last break which we marked as a threat was drawn back with the guidance of our three resident diesel engines: Matt Vandivort, Roger Parmalee, and Andrew Walsh.
With the lap counter dangling at 3 laps to go, I knew it was time to start trying to positioning myself, I found my teammate Matt Vandivort with one lap to go, and he strung the field out like it was laundry day in the city.After following two riders into the last swooping corner, I continued to gain on both of the riders, I eventually passed the one of two riders exiting the corner. At this moment I had my sights set on the last target, and in what I would like to think a top gun scene where the missile was locked and loaded (*queue the music*). I hit the button, and went straight to the danger zone.
After spending a week down south racing by myself, It was a complete honor and pleasure to return to New York City and race with my teammates by my side. What a great crew, I won Orchard Beach through the hard work of every single teammate that raced with me. This is our win, and I cant wait to keep the good vibes and fun times rolling for the rest of the season.

Don't let life become a box of mass produced chocolates
The impact of putting away our phone once in a while
Growing up between grazing Bertha's I have waited many times for the bus to bring me to the big city. What used to be hoping for the bus actually to come and staring in the distance has become counting down the minutes from the led display and killing time on my smartphone. The smartphone, we feel naked when we are without. It is our best friend. It is even allowed to come in our most private spaces. Who hasn't brought his or her phone to the little room when doing number two before? The moment we have to wait, get bored or have nothing on our hands, we take out our best friend to play. These moments probably don't take up more than ten minutes a day, but what happens when we keep our phones in our pockets and use this short moment to just look up? This is my view on what happens when we go "off" once in a while, taking our down-time.
The beauty of boredom
Remember the time when we only had a landline and we were bored to death playing with the same toy over and over again. We didn't just sit in a corner and wait for some fairy to create a new game for us. (Sitting still was hard anyway with a gummy bear sugar rush) No, we would ring the bell of our friends from the block. We would gather some sheets and twigs, build a magical castle in the park and invite everyone to celebrate with a pick nick. Boredom makes space for creativity and ignites our imagination. We might feel too old to build tree houses now, but the thought behind boredom can still be applied today. Putting on a blank stare reduces the white noise in our head, giving us space to prioritize and solve problems with creativity. It might sound paradoxical, but I believe with taking a step backwards we become more productive and efficient, moving us forward faster.
The power of reflection
Even computers need rest, why don't we? Being burnt out before, I realized that constantly processing all these impulses of my work emails, what's apps, social media posts I forgot to feel my body. Keeping our brain occupied for almost 24/7 we don't hear that our body is crying for attention. And one day it decides to give you a tantrum and stops working. We can't just ignore our feelings or treat our body like a tool. By tapping in a couple of times a day to hear our body out and give in to its needs, like proper sleep (not only in the weekends!), you'll be on your way to a long prosper life. Besides our health, taking the time to reflect gives you space to look back, think of the nice dinner you had or the precious moments of your amazing trip last summer. I believe we should all be more grateful and appreciate what we have. It leaves you with a smile for the day and who doesn't like that?
"You never know what you're gonna get" - Forrest Gump
The joy of spontaneity
Would you rather have mass produced chocolate, or be surprised with a fine piece of raspberry coated, champagne flavored bonbon? Technology has given us wonders, such as reuniting with lost family members and showing victims in the world support during hard times. But using our phone to fill and plan each moment of our day to the minute leaves us little space for spontaneity. When was the last time that you started a conversation with a stranger at the bus stop? You don't have to, like Forrest, make a granny cry her eyes out and missing her bus with your heartbreaking life story. But instead of looking at your phone, you might meet your new boss, notice someone losing her earring or just make people happy with a compliment or chocolates.
So put your phone at the bottom of your Herschel backpack, tie your right arm to your waist and look up! Bye bye neck cramps and let life surprise you!

I took a hurried glance out the window and snuggled back down only to hear the doorbell ring. I'm wondering why would anyone make a delivery that time of morning? The load of bricks came from North Carolina, so in the scheme of things I was lucky. I wonder what time he get's up?!
With the exception of the flower beds, our backyard and part of the front yard are totally destroyed. Heavy rains + mole damage + 3 super-duty forklifts = ruts and holes.
This afternoon I had a two patient and helpful assistants. Mr. 1000 was my photo assistant and his brother "Big D" was my packing assistant. Even though my batteries died as soon as I snapped the first photo, he returned to hold the gladiola which is taller than him.
(I took these with the flash on. The color was so washed out. They're more red-orange than orange-red.)

Is an understatement. Ziggy isn't allowed to roam free, but I do let her accompany me when I'm futzing around with my potted plants in the back yard.
She typically shadows me, meowing all the time as if announcing her presence to the world, and explores the back yard as I go along pruning, watering and feeding the plants.
When we came around to the gate area, Ziggy flopped down on a patch of sun-warmed bricks and started rolling around on them. She was a little too close to the gate, and she ever so gently nudged it with her head. Of course, the metal gate rattled, startling her. She sprang to her feet, proceeded to inflate and dashed into the house.
I, of course, held off laughter until she was out of sight.

By: Adrean Farrugia
Label: GB Records
Released: 2018
Joel Frahm, what's not to like. Quintessential East side America - skyscrapers, Autumn leaves and pumpkin pie.
Pianist Adrean Farrugia and Tenor Saxophonist Joel Frahm explore the exciting and intimate world of duo performance with their new album Blued Dharma. "How refreshing, timely and reassuring to find two musicians exploring the endless possibilities of improvisation out of the fettered form of the "song", completely undone thanks to each other's transcendental ingenuity and deep empathy." Raul da Gama. After a 9-year musical relationship performing in drummer Ernesto Cervini's groups, Farrugia and Frahm show the world what musical simpatico is all about. In a gorgeous set of music they prod, cajole and inspire each other to create beautiful musical landscapes for all to enjoy. "I first became aware of saxophonist Joel Frahm in the late 1990's. I was sitting in my car on a rainy evening with my friend and we were listening to a bootleg recording of Joel playing at a jam session in New York with sax legend Chris Potter. I remember exclaiming 'who IS this guy?!?!' I was mesmerized with his incredible melodicism, prodigious technique, and his sense of joy, groove, and humour in his music. I was instantly a fan." Frahm and Farrugia present a set of spirited music including 2 standards (with 2 vastly different versions of Cherokee) and 5 original Farrugia compositions. The interplay is exquisite! Blued Dharma was released internationally on Friday, May 25th of GBRecords.
Blued Dharma; Cherokee II; For Murray Gold; Gospell; Nobody Else But Me; Cherokee I; Half Moon.
Adrean Farrugia: piano; Joel Frahm: tenor and soprano saxophones.

Gogala, Marko (2009) Structural and functional analysis of the yeast protein Sec13 with an qmphasis on its protein interaction interface. Diploma thesis, Faculty of Science > Department of Biology.

Possession of an envelope-coated nucleus is the defining trait of eukaryotes. Since the nuclear pore complex (NPC) is the only known mediator of nucleo-cytoplasmic traffic, elucidating its structure is important for understanding eukaryotic cells. Sec13 is a component of the NPC whose importance for the stability of the complex is unclear. Its dual role in binding proteins Nup145 in the NPC and Sec31 in COPII vesicles makes mutational analysis of Sec13 function difficult. The goal of this project was solving a structure of Sec13 in complex with the Nup145C insertion blade that would provide a clear view of the Sec13/Nup145C interface. The obtained structure was compared to the structures of the Sec13/Sec31 complex. Based on the differences between the interaction sites of the structures, a mutant Sec13 protein was designed, that binds specifically to Sec31, but has lost affinity for Nup145C. The effect of this mutation was confirmed by in vitro experiments.

The days get longer, the mornings become easier to start, and the mid-afternoons are warmer and more inviting than I can bear to stand as I pace back and forth through the lab glancing out at the sunshine that wasn't quite warm enough when I started the day, and will vanish before I end it.
I spend a lot of time while not inside the lab I work at (Photolab in SW Berkeley on 5th) at or around the general vicinity of the Berkeley Aquatic park on Bolivar and Bancroft. I love to ride my bike around blasting tunes and snapping shots as I zone out during my circumnavigation of the man-made lake (more of a water-rectangle).

I have been playing with chia seeds lately (I know, I'm late to the party), but this little beauty is a powerhouse.
A one-ounce (28 grams/about 2 Tbsp) serving of chia seeds contains:
Fiber: 11 grams.
Protein: 4 grams.
Fat: 9 grams (5 of which are omega-3s).
Calcium: 18% of the RDI.
Manganese: 30% of the RDI.
Magnesium: 30% of the RDI.
Phosphorus: 27% of the RDI.
They also contain a decent amount of zinc, vitamin B3 (niacin), potassium, vitamin B1 (thiamine) and vitamin B2.
They are also high in antioxidants. Antioxidants fight the production of free radicals, which can damage cell molecules and contribute to aging and diseases like cancer.
They are also incredibly easy to incorporate into your diet. This little pudding recipe is a prime example, and it doesn't not disappoint.
Recipe = 1 serving
8 oz almond cashew milk
2 scoops vanilla plant protein (mine is a blend of pea, hemp, and quinoa)
2 Tbsp chia seeds
1/4 c blueberries
1/4 c raspberries
Shake and refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
Feel free to put your own spin on it. Try different protein powders, add different fruit, etc.
I've been enjoying them in the evening as a dessert, but they also make for an easy grab-and-go breakfast if you're in a rush.
Whip a few of them up, and make sure to use the hashtag #liftandlovelife so I can show you some love.
