Lois Bates
July/August 2008
While she admits that transitioning from male to female wasn't as difficult for her as it is for many other transpersons, Lois Bates is certain that the transition from "advocate to victim," as she says, has been the hardest pill she's ever had to swallow.
She knew early on that she was different, more than just gay. She was unable to put a finger on exactly what it was at the time, seeing that there was no official "language" available to help steer her in the right direction. And, had she shared what she felt with the wrong person in those days, she could have easily found herself institutionalized among the severely mentally unstable.
Being different didn't bother her, though. She takes pride in having always possessed the unique ability to celebrate difference in herself as well as in others. It helps that she's got thick skin as well, so she's never been concerned about what anyone else thinks or says about her. She is who she is, period -- a characteristic of her personality that she believes may have developed as a result of having the unconditional love and support of her parents.
Though they were also unable to articulate exactly what was going on with their youngest child, their primary concern was for her self-preservation. They wanted her to be able to support herself, regardless of the discordance that she felt relating to her gender orientation. With that in mind, Lois made a conscious choice to delay her physical transformation until such a time when she could be the person who she knew in her heart and mind she was born to be, and live a normal, productive life in that form.
Meanwhile, and with the ultimate goal of creating a space within which she could comfortably begin this transition, Lois enlisted in the U.S. Navy as a young man.
This was before the Clinton administration's policy of "Don't ask, don't tell." She was forthcoming with the recruiter about her sexual and gender orientation, though she is sure that he was more interested in meeting his quota than assessing what her experience would be like in such an environment. Thus, she found herself in route to the Persian Gulf in service of her country.
Ironically, despite an isolated incident where she punched an officer for calling her a faggot, Lois lists her tenure in the military as one of the most memorable periods of her life. And, for the record, she admits that finding others who were like her -- gay, transgender, or otherwise -- was not as difficult of a task as she imagined it would be.
Upon returning home from the Navy she enrolled in school to become a licensed cosmetologist, still identifying as a male but now freer to give a more feminine appearance. She also held positions at the United States Post Office and as an armed security guard, in preparation for life as a full-time, no-nonsense, independent woman.
Growing up in a household where both of her parents had more than one career, Lois later decided to return to school for business administration. It was there that she learned that her ability to do a job and do it well could outshine any distractions that her gender discordance might create. This lesson, she says with certainty, has carried her through to this point in her life, opening doors that she never imagined possible for transgender persons.
Just as she thought the "right" time to fully transition was approaching, life threw a wrench into Lois' plans. At the tender age of 26 she was diagnosed with end stage renal failure. She was told by several healthcare professionals that she would be denied access to a kidney transplant if she revealed her intent to someday transition from male to female. The apprehension was that she'd begin hormone therapy upon receiving a donated kidney, which could cause her body to reject it.
With her parents' emphasis on self-preservation reverberating through her heart and mind, Lois toyed with the idea of keeping her true gender identity a secret until after her transplant was complete, delaying her transition yet again. Not willing to give up her dreams of transitioning, but also not wanting to jeopardize her health in any way, she began to consider and research the use of natural hormones. She learned that they would be far less toxic and taxing on her body. So, with great caution and under the strict supervision of her healthcare team, Lois took the initial steps toward her transition while still in the process of waiting on a new kidney.
Following a successful transplant, the time had finally come for Lois to live the life that she'd always believed she should. And, for the very first time, she went to find work as a woman.
She obtained a position in the human resources department of a not-for-profit organization that provided specialized training for industrial corporations, while also working part-time as a salon assistant. It was in the salon that she met local Chicago trans-advocate Raven Bonté. She recruited Lois to conduct a workshop on résumé writing at a support group for transwomen that she was facilitating. Lois agreed, marking her segue into transgender social support services. Feeling good about having a platform to assist other people who were like her, Lois soon made the transition from volunteer to full-time employee, eventually landing the position of Program Director for the Minority Outreach Intervention Project (MOIP), then the premier black LGBT organization in Chicago.
During her work with MOIP, however, Lois was forced to face the fact that while she was finally able to live in the truth of her gender orientation, there was a part of herself that she was not quite ready to grapple with. Shortly after her transplant, she learned that she was diabetic, a condition that she was managing well, for the most part. However, even though she frequently encouraged and supported others to be tested for HIV and be treated if found to be positive, Lois herself was unaware of her own status.
There was a part of her, she says, that didn't want to know. And another part that already did. With support from some of the same transwomen she had once provided support to, Lois agreed to take the test. The result was as she expected it to be.
Testing positive didn't stop her, though, but actually propelled her even further into the work of advocating for greater access to quality social and medical services for transpersons. Following her diagnosis, Lois became involved with numerous community advocacy groups, including the HIV Prevention Planning Group and the Chicago Area Ryan White Services Planning Council. Then, in an effort to expand her reach to transpersons and to further her development as a helping professional, Lois accepted a position as Manager of Transgender Services at Howard Brown Health Center. She was also appointed Secretary of the Windy City Black Pride committee (Chicago's black LGBT pride organization), making her the first transperson to hold office on a black LGBT pride committee anywhere in the country.

"I didn't mean to," Kim said to a crowd in Las Vegas on New Year's Eve, "but I did this song with The-Dream." Didn't mean to? Uh-huh. Yeah. Sure.
Come on. Nothing is an accident. Kim is crafty. She really is. She changes her story, her vibe and her angle as necessary. She went from "that girl getting it from behind in that sex tape" to, as the New York Post puts it, a "wholesome sex bomb." TV producer Mike Fleiss says: "I've never met her. I've never seen her show. And truthfully, I don't think there's a bigger TV star than Kim Kardashian." That is not by accident.
The biggest star is a work in progress, and a lot of the work is spin. Rumors fly about her dating this guy or that guy, yet her official stance is she has no love life and wants to be a mom. Recently, there was talk of adopting a child from Africa, but it's impossible to extract this tale from the fact that its appearance in the press coincided with her promotional trip to Johannesburg.
Consider this inconsistency, noticed by the folks at F Bomb Cafe: In an interview which appeared in Harper's Bazaar in April, Kim said: "I'm sorry I did Playboy. I was uncomfortable." In this month's issue of Glamour, Kim says: "[Posing for Playboy] was an independence thing for me… And I think it looks great. I'll have those pictures forever."
There's nothing wrong with changing your tune. Changing her mind is a woman's prerogative. But there is something disingenuous about her I'm-Not-Bad-I'm-Just Drawn-That-Way persona and a statement like "I didn't mean" to make a pop single with one of the hottest producers out there. Did she also accidentally get corn rows and accidentally get Kanye West to appear in the clip? Obviously not. And honestly, with her curvy figure, olive skin and dark hair, Kim is already popular over several swaths of races and ethnicities; the corn rows and the black boyfriends just hammer it home: Unlike blonde/blue-eyed country pop star Taylor Swift, Kim's all-American in a much more current sense, and she wants you to know it.
Funny how the last thing we're talking about is whether or not the girl can sing. That's because it doesn't matter much. She's got the look, the producers, the following. Even though you can barely hear her voice , this snippet of video already has almost 90,000 hits. Behold, Kim in Las Vegas, playing her new track, "Turn It Up," for the crowd.
If her song isn't the biggest hit of 2011, it won't be for lack of trying.

text: Sebastian Vettel (R) celebrates 2012 Bahrain GP victory with Red Bull teammates in Sakhir [GALLO/GETTY]Formula One has no concerns about this month's Bahrain Grand Prix becoming a target for anti-government protesters, commercial supremo Bernie Ecclestone said on Friday. The race at the Sakhir desert circuit was cancelled in 2011 when a Shi'ite-led pro-democracy uprising was crushed and at least 35 people - activists put the tally far higher - were killed. Last year's grand prix, the biggest sporting event in the U.S.-allied Gulf island kingdom and watched by hundreds of millions around the world, went ahead controversially amid tight security and against a backdrop of burning tyres and riot police firing teargas at petrol-bomb throwing protesters in Shi'ite villages. Bahrain's opposition and government resumed reconciliation talks in February for the first time since July 2011 and, even if little progress has been reported, Ecclestone felt the situation had improved. "I haven't had any negative reports from anybody there," the 82-year-old British billionaire said as he prepared for a double header with the Chinese Grand Prix on April 14 and Bahrain on the 21st. "Somebody who actually lives there came to see me yesterday and said everything's very normal."I think they (both sides) are talking now anyway... so I don't think they'll upset the talks by making protests," said Ecclestone. "It didn't help them last year, so if they had any brains they'd just get on with their talks." 'No concerns' Demonstrators have continued small protests on an almost daily basis to demand equality and a constitutional monarchy in the tiny kingdom ruled by the Sunni al-Khalifa family and home to the U.S. Fifth Fleet.At least 10 civilians and several policemen were injured last month during protests to mark the second anniversary of the arrival of forces from neighbouring Saudi Arabia which helped crush the uprising.Police said the demonstrators had barricaded roads and torched vehicles. Pictures published in the foreign media have shown slogans daubed on walls calling for a boycott of the race. "I think they (both sides) are talking now anyway... so I don't think they'll upset the talks by making protests" Bernie Ecclestone Asked whether there was a risk of the race being targeted more directly after the protests and international pressure failed to stop it going ahead last year, Ecclestone said: "No, I think quite the opposite."No concerns, none at all," he said. Ecclestone said he would again be in Bahrain for the grand prix, fourth round of the 19 race season, and praised local organisers for their efforts. He assured them that Bahrain, the first country to host a grand prix in the Middle East and on the calendar since 2004, had a long-term future in F1 despite Abu Dhabi's glittering floodlit race now being a much more popular fixture with both teams and sponsors."Yes, yes, absolutely," he said. "Everything that is there is as far as we are concerned good. They do a very, very good job of the race, the whole support from the top is good. No problems."

A man accused of attacking former Casualty actor Clive Mantle and severely disfiguring his ear has told a court he was defending himself from the 'big monster' he thought was going to kill him.
Philip McGilvray, 33, admits biting the ear of Mr Mantle, but says he was acting in self-defence after the actor had pinned him to the floor.
Along with Alan French, 32, McGilvray denies wounding with intent in the incident that took place in a hotel in Newcastle last year.
Mr Mantle, 56, had been working locally and was staying in the Quayside Travelodge.
McGilvray told the jury at Newcastle Crown Court that he had been drinking with his friends since the afternoon and had returned to the hotel in the early hours.
The pair then began walking along the hotel corridors looking for French's room, McGilvray said, and that is when he became aware of the actor coming out of his room to tell them to be quiet.
"I turned around and the next thing I was taken out by this big guy. I'm not sure if he punched me or clothes-lined me," he said.
"It was like being hit by a car. I was on my back and Mr Mantle was straight on top of me. I had one arm in front of me and the other under my back and I could not move.
"He was attacking me, he was on top of me, his face right in front of me. He was pulling at me and grabbing me.
"I was surprised and shocked, I was scared, angry and I did not know what I had done. All I had done was speak to some girls and then I had a big monster on me.
"I don't know why I did it, I could not get away, I did not know what he had in his hands, I thought he was trying to kill me."
He told the court that he thought he had no alternative than to bite the ear of Mr Mantle to stop the attack.
He said that he too had suffered a similar injury when he was younger, when a bouncer bit off his ear and swallowed it and this caused him to feel ashamed for what he had done.
"I know every feeling and emotion that Mr Mantle has been through. I'm disgusted with myself and ashamed with myself," he said.
McGilvray told the court he had previously been in trouble for fighting and had been convicted of assault. He also said his brother had been stabbed to death in the street.
Jolyon Perks, prosecuting, accused McGilvray of talking 'absolute rubbish' and said he lied to the police when he was first interviewed.
Mr Perks said after the altercation the pair had left the scene for three hours and eventually returned later after trying to check into a different hotel.
But when the police initially interviewed him under caution, he said he could not remember what had happened and the last thing he recalled was being in a club.
"You lost your temper when you were drunk and went over the top, way over the top," Mr Perks said. "You were unable to explain to the police in your interview what Clive Mantle could possibly have done to justify your reaction. You did it because when you are drunk your character changes and you decided that you were going to disfigure him."

Having a website has become as important to the success of a company as it is to have printed brochures and business cards, maybe even more so. Unlike printed brochures, a website can easily be kept up to date with minimal cost and also provide the flexibility of adding new information in a timely and expedient manner.
Providing Internet services, including website development, design and hosting, has become a big business. For small business owners and for nonprofit organizations, it can be confusing and difficult to know how to choose a company that will best serve your needs and your budget.

text: Hello to everyone. Some time ago I bought the PandaBoard ES. This new board is very very nice. It's fast and powerful,even if a little bit limited with the only ubuntu arm operating system supported. When I work on the board I miss the X86 system. Since that I have understood that I can't have it,I wonder if I can virtualize Android while Ubuntu is running. I'm very interested to have these 2 os's run simultaneusly. After having studied the case,I'm sure there is a way : using the codezero hypervisor (http://www.l4dev.org). The problem is that I haven't found any tutorial that explain how to do...on the net there is only a video,on youtube..another way could be using LXC (Linux Containers). Since I'm almost a newbie,I have documented myself a little bit : I found this tutorial : http://www.techrepublic.com/blog/ope...tag=rbxccnbtr1 it seems to be very well written. He says the easiest way to set up an LXC-based container is to use an existing base operating system, such as the templates provided by the OpenVZ project,listed here : http://wiki.openvz.org/Download/template/precreated but what about if I create a specific template for Android ?. If someone of you is experienced with this,could give me an advice ? I would know if my idea could works. Thanks.

- Spurs vs. Grizzlies: Series Hub
SAN ANTONIO — This is the way it was always supposed to be for Tracy McGrady — conference finals, clock running down in the fourth quarter, ball in his hands and the crowd buzzing at the thought of what he might do.
With T-Mac, anything always was possible, and nobody knows that better than the Spurs who were once on the receiving end of 13 points in the final 35 seconds on one mind-boggling night in Houston. Now though, with Tim Duncan, Tony Parker and Manu Ginobili riding out the conclusion of a 20-point Game 1 blowout on the bench, McGrady is far outside the center ring under the big top. He's more part of the cleanup crew that walks behind the elephants.
"It's a great feeling," he said. "It's great to be part of this terrific organization and guys around here. I'm living the dream right now."
Which says something about dreams or McGrady or both. For about a decade, T-Mac was a headlining NBA star whose name could be mentioned in the same breath with Kobe Bryant, LeBron James, Dwayne Wade, Dirk Nowitzki and the rest — except in the springtime when reputations are forged.
For all of the improbable 3-point shots he made, high-rising slam dunks he threw down, thread-the-needle passes that he delivered right on the money, what McGrady could never do was win a single playoff series.
He had the numbers, but never the pedigree of a winner as he went 0-for-every postseason situation he was ever in, his teams on which he was the leader blowing 3-1 leads in Orlando and Houston and another pair of 2-0 leads with the Rockets. What's more, every stop along the way in a different NBA jersey always would up with much recrimination, little remorse and the microfracture knee that led to his trade out of Houston signaled the end of his relevance as a star or even starter.
Until he sat on the San Antonio bench, mostly in street clothes for the 4-0 sweep of the Lakers, McGrady was the only scoring champ in NBA history to never make it out of the first round of the playoffs. Now T-Mac is in the conference finals, albeit in a drastically different role — the equivalent of playing for spare change and nostalgia as part of a rock 'n roll oldies tour.
He has appeared in four games of the playoffs for a total of 17 minutes, shot 0-for-4 and hasn't scored a point. Yet the fans at the AT&T Center are loudly cheering on that bid for his first bucket as a Spur.
"It's great; a great feeling to know you have 18,000 people supportive of me and wanting to see me do well," he said.
"I didn't notice it the first time I got in, but people were telling me about it — 'Did you hear the reception you were getting every time you touched the ball?' — but, no, because I'm so locked in when I got it.
"But I got in [Sunday] and really noticed. It was something special."
It's not lost on McGrady that he entered the NBA in the same 1997 Draft with his new teammate, Duncan, though their roles, of course, are now vastly different.
"I came to terms of my situation and I got it," he said. "It wasn't in the cards for me to continue the health like Kobe and some of my peers I competed against when I was playing at the highest level. It just wasn't in the cards for me. I had to go through a lot of stuff to realize the opportunities that I had. Things happen for a reason. The man above takes us through things we sometimes can't understand but, later on in life, we realize some of the stuff we had to go through.
"This is a promotion for me. For so many years I tried to compete and take a team out of the first round. It just didn't happen. Then I had to go through some things with my injury that were frustrating but I'm sitting at home – and I live by faith, not by sight – and [coach Gregg Popovich] called me out of the blue and here I am."
Popovich reached out just before the start of the playoffs, 1 1/2 months after McGrady finished a season with the Qindao Eagles of the Chinese Basketball Association, in what could be the latest chapter in Pop's very own personal outreach program to unfulfilled NBA veterans:
— In 1999, ex-Blazers star Jerome Kersey hooked on with the Spurs and won the only championship of his 17 NBA seasons.
— In 2003, former Hawks All-Star Kevin Willis set down in San Antonio and claimed his only NBA title in 21 seasons.
— In 2005, it was Glenn Robinson, well past his "Big Dog" days as a No. 1 draft choice and superstar in Milwaukee, who came off the bench in the last of his 11 NBA seasons to win it all with the Spurs.
— In 2007, it was ex-Maverick All-Star Michael Finley's turn as the 16-year pro won the only ring of his career.
It seems each championship season the Spurs have brought an old pro along for the ride. Now it's McGrady in the ceremonial seat in his 17th season.
"It's possible," said T-Mac, "I can be a champion before I leave this game."
When a guy gets out of the first round, he dreams bigger.

Process Room, 15.11.05- 27.11.05
There are always multiple possibilities for an element to be used and placed within a space, creating different relations, contexts and counterpoints. Normally an exhibition only allows for one of these possible solutions to be realised, but the process room, by its nature and close proximity to the studio, allows for a rotation and re-cycling of work over the two week period of the show – for variations and for bleeding between separate pieces, for relations to evolve in time.
The wooden structure acts as both a way to slow down entry to the space and also as a site or stage for other pieces of work that will be made on or fixed to it. The other pieces are made from things that I have had lying around or have caught my attention in Dublin – rolled up magazine pages with their found colours and textures, sellotape and paper, postcards, paint buckets, wood and cement. These simple materials have an immediate familiarity and tactility. They are 'everyday' and therefore often overlooked. Our lives exist in the everyday but the act of looking closely at it is subversive.
The postcard of the old entrance to Coombe Lying-in Hospital is for visitors to pick up and take away – a souvenir. Making the image into a postcard attempts to draw attention to something that is passed by. But the postcard itself is a throwaway object, a piece of ephemera, replaying the observed / overlooked, given and taken away.

Hostess Brands won permission to put some of its brands, including Twinkie, up for auction as bankruptcy proceedings continued Monday.
Continue Reading Below
On Monday, Judge Robert Drain of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court in White Plains, N.Y., approved the baker's plans, revealed in the last few weeks, to sell its assets.
The auction for Twinkie and related assets is slated for March 13. Auctions for Drake's and bread brands Sweetheart, Eddy's, Standish Farms and Grandma Emilie's will take place on March 15.
Private equity firms Apollo Global Management (NYSE:APO) and Metropoulos & Co. are the stalking horse, or lead bidder, for most of Hostess' cake brands, including Twinkie, Ding Dongs, Ho Hos and Dolly Madison, as well as five bakeries and equipment. The firms offered $410 million.
Stalking-horse bidders set a baseline offer and are usually given breakup fees if they do not emerge as the winning bidder.
Little Debbie maker McKee Foods Corp. opened up the bidding for Drake's with a $27.5 million offer, which does not include Drake's Wayne, N.J., plant.
Franz Family Bakery, a subsidiary of Portland, Ore.-based United States Bakery, put $28.85 million on the table for the four bread brands, four bakeries, 14 depots and equipment.
Judge Drain will consider approval for the winning bids at a sale hearing on March 19.
A Hostess spokesperson confirmed the details, reported by Dow Jones Newswires late Monday morning, to FOX Business.
Last month, Hostess got approval to divest 20 plants, 38 depots and five of its major bread brands, including Wonder Bread and Nature's Pride. Flowers Foods (NYSE:FLO), the maker of Tastykakes and Nature's Own breads, has the opening bid of $360 million. That auction will be held on Feb. 28 with a sale hearing scheduled for March 5.
Hostess announced in November that it was shutting down its bakeries and selling off about 30 brands and 36 plants. The move came after the company could not negotiate a deal on cost-cutting measures with its second-largest union.
FOX Business reporter Adam Samson contributed to this report.

The PockeTracker incorporates a TinyTrak PIC IC and a VHF Dual-frequency 270 mW transmitter. It was a product of Byonics, but is no longer available.
PocketTracker has an option in the later model to change the frequency of the transmitter by talking directly to a divide-by network.
In the previous model the frequency of operation was fixed between two different known frequencies via a jumper.
The main advantage of the PocketTracker is its low power consumption and its size. It can run for something like 100 hours on a 9Volt battery. It was housed inside an Altoids tin, requiring only an external antenna and a GPS connection for operation.
The PocketTracker has been discontinued because some of the parts it requires are no longer available. Byonics now offers a different product, the MicroTrak300.

Jerry Jones: New Atlanta stadium has Super Bowl written all over it
Jan 28, 2016
Vaughn McClure
ESPN Staff Writer
MOBILE, Ala. -- If Falcons owner Arthur Blank and the city of Atlanta are ready to make their Super Bowl pitch for the 2019 season, they certainly have the backing of Jerry Jones.
The Dallas Cowboys owner gushed about Blank and the Mercedes-Benz Stadium, which is expected to open in 2017 despite a recent setback in the construction timeline. Blank previously announced intentions to bid on the next available Super Bowl, which is Super Bowl 53 during the '19 season. The NFL events staff already visited Atlanta and the $1.4 billion venue multiple times.
Jones acknowledged the strong chance of Atlanta securing the '19 bid.
"Well, that stadium has Super Bowl written all over it," Jones told ESPN.com following practice at the Senior Bowl. "It is nothing short of magnificent, and I'm not exaggerating. With the entire franchise, (Blank) has put his heart and soul into it. He'll do anything to win. And he hasn't spared the rod on that stadium. He has, just every step of the way, expanded the scope of it by making it just as good as good can be.
"I'm very proud to have him as an owner in the league. And I'm very proud of that stadium not only for the Atlanta fans, the Falcons fans, but also for the league. It's going to be one of our great assets. It's certainly going to be a great place to play a Super Bowl."
Tampa, Miami and New Orleans also are in the mix for Super Bowl 53, but many anticipate Atlanta will be rewarded for the construction of a new stadium. Minneapolis, which is set to open a new stadium next season, was awarded Super Bowl 52.
The year after Jones' "Jerry World" Cowboys Stadium opened in 2009, Super Bowl 45 was held there the very next season. (It is now called AT&T Stadium.).
"We generally, if you look -- it's not written policy because each one has to be voted on by the owners -- but it has a very obvious logic that the owners usually follow that if you make that type of commitment, you should be able to have a Super Bowl," Jones said. "Of course Atlanta is a great place, a great city to have a Super Bowl."
The '19 bid will be announced during the NFL spring league meeting, to be held in Charlotte on May 23-25. If Atlanta does not win, it is eligible to bid for Super Bowl 54. However, the bidding should be even more competitive by then with Los Angeles and a new stadium also eligible to bid for the 2020 season. Los Angeles' eligibility was based on a new team playing in the city by 2018, and the Rams are relocating to L.A. for next season.
Atlanta To Host Super Bowl in 2019?

Avoid Carbon Monoxide Poisoning This Winter
With the impending ice storm, the Maine Center for Disease Control is reminding residents to be safe with their generators and space heaters. If these appliances are not properly vented, it could result in carbon monoxide poisoning, causing illness or even death.
In a press release this week, state toxicologist Andrew Smith urged Mainers to keep their generators outside, to prevent accidental poisoning. Carbon Monoxide poisoning will cause headaches, some nausea, but especially drowsiness. It's a frightening thing because you may not realize it's the deadly gas that's making you sleepy.
The Maine CDC released the following tips for staying safe...
How to Prevent CO Poisoning During Power Outages
- Place generator outdoors in the fresh air. Keep it at least 15 feet from windows or doors. Do not put a generator in a closed or partly closed space, like a basement, cellar bulkhead, or attached garage. Carbon monoxide can build up to dangerous levels in these spaces.
- Make a plan for how to keep your generator dry and protected from ice and snow so you are not tempted to bring it inside a garage or other enclosed structure. Generators also pose a risk of shock and electrocution, especially in wet conditions. Dry your hands before touching a generator.
- Do not use outdoor cooking devices, such as grills or camp stoves, indoors.
- Place a carbon monoxide detector that is battery powered (or has battery back-up power) outside each sleeping area. CO detectors are in most stores. Look for the UL mark with the "Single Station Carbon Monoxide Alarm" statement.
If You Suspect CO Poisoning
- Leave the house at once.
- Call the fire department or 911.
- Get medical attention. Call the Poison Center (1-800-222-1222) or your doctor after you leave the house.
- Do not go back into the building until the fire department tells you it is safe.

Essay by: Timesoftrouble
"If you find the godless world is hating you, remember it got its start hating me. If you lived on the world's terms, the world would love you as one of its own. But since I picked you to live on God's terms and no longer on the world's terms, the world is going to hate you. {John 15:19}-{The Message}
Therefore I am doing my job for God extremely well because everything that I tell this world of believers straight from the words of God they not only don't believe, but call out of context while hating me and being as murders to God; and the words of God Almighty just rip all shepherds worldwide to pieces as the greedy blind leading blinded believers in God worldwide because they not only don't believe God's words above, but not these words below with just everything that God says in the entire Bible that does not line of with the brewed doctrines of man.
"And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him. {Revelation 12:9}-{KJV}
"The LORD looked down from heaven upon the children of men, to see if there were any that did understand, and seek God. They are all gone aside, they are all together become filthy: there is none that doeth good, no, not one. {Psalms 14:2-3}
Because of God's own words speak that this entire world of believers refuse to believe, what God sees in man with clarity is a human race that has become stultified and the meaning none, no, not one will see themselves as being stultified which causes the appearance of being stupid, foolish, or absurdly illogical.
What every person on this planet needs to know for life itself can be found in this book, so now it's just waiting on God to make a way to publish and distribute the only truth as a view of the coming big picture on every life.
I look to only God because I know that He will continue in directing my paths. Want to read the book? Just ask and I will send it via email.
Preview of Tomorrow
Today's Titanic is the ship of this world with civilization as passengers while traveling the seas of darkness when coming upon an unseen, unknown and completely unexpected massive tragedy packing many ways of hidden death while only lurking and waiting in the shadows of the night and being well camouflaged under the dark misguided icy waters of life only to make it's quick strike with venom dripping while bringing the greatest kill through the worst destructive calamity upon earth with more panic, more anguish, more pain and more indescribable mental and physical suffering than has ever before been in the human race or the entire eternal universe.
In today's civilization, just as the passengers on the Titanic, we have a world with different classes of people or lifestyles such as the very high class billionaires with a step down into
millionaires down to well off down to middle class down to lower middle class down to poor down to poverty and down to the homeless in tent cities springing up everywhere in our
dying world today.
But no matter who any person in life may be and no matter how much money they may have, it matters not in any way whatsoever, and that is because when this world's ship sinks, all as in everyone everywhere worldwide are going down with it while being there is only lifeboats for the few on walk on God's narrow road through faith and obedience.
And when this great Mammoth Unsinkable Ship of luxury begins taking in water from the Titanic can opener with the purpose of bringing down the human race, most all people from every walk of life will become who their true colors show with great hate, panic, self wants, throat cutters to get ahead, trying to buy a spot for safety that cannot be bought, and just a world becoming as road rage tension that only rises with tempers flaring while people are suffering, screaming and dying with no lifeline, no hope, and just no way out of the slowly sinking world ship with a new design specifically for many years of hellacious vicious living through slowly bringing death rather than the blessing of less than three hours {that must have felt like 3 days} suffering for passengers on the ship; or the quick destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah where no hands stayed upon its end as being over in a flash; and if that same destruction could come upon earth and this entire human race now and today in the same way, it would be the greatest blessing that could ever be when compared to what's coming that is very well described in my written book inspired by God.
Titanic: Danger Ignored;.
© Neal West
The next three days were calm and peaceful as the passengers and crew explored the brand new White Star Liner; perhaps taking a dip in the warm salt-water pool or relaxing in the Turkish Bath on Middle deck. Those who perhaps felt guilty over eating so much rich food might have took a turn in the ship's gymnasium or visited the barber for a trim or to buy souvenirs of the voyage such as paperweights or postcards. Third Class passengers were perhaps feeling as if they stepped into another world. The Third Class common rooms, though Spartan, were comfortable and the food was perhaps the best they have ever experienced. Sunday, 14 April 1912 was clear and bright. Capt. E.J. Smith, perhaps not wanting to disturb the passenger's Sabbath, cancelled the scheduled lifeboat drill. Not that it would have been much use, the Board of Trade regulations only required that a picked crew uncover a boat, swing it out and climb aboard to inspect the mast and other stores. At 11 a.m. Capt Smith led Sunday services in 1st class dining room concluding the service with the singing of "O God, our help in ages past."
While the passengers where enjoying their 3rd day at sea, in the Marconi wireless room, Harold Bride and Jack Phillips were working feverishly to catch up on a backlog of messages. The wireless set had broken down the previous day and was not repaired until very early Sunday morning. Then at 9 A.M. they received a message from the Cunarder "Caronia" reporting " bergs, growlers, and field ice at 42N, from 49 to 51 W,". This was "Titanic's" first ice warning. This first warning was taken to the Bridge and was posted in the chartroom for all the Officers to see. Then, at 11:40 A.M., a second warning reported ice in the same area by the Dutch ship "Noordam." Then, at 1:40 P.M., the wireless sparked an ominous message from the White Star Steamer "Baltic:"
"Captain Smith, "Titanic". Have moderate variable winds and clear weather since leaving. Greek steamer "Athenia" report passing icebergs and large quantity of field ice today in latitude 41.51 north, longitude 49.52 west..."
This message was also taken to the bridge and given to Capt. Smith, however, Smith DID NOT post the ice position on the chart, instead he showed the message to Bruce Ismay, who nonchalantly put it in his pocket! A few minutes after the "Baltic's" transmission, the German ship "Amerika" asked "Titanic" to pass on a message to the U.S. Hydrographic Office reporting two large bergs at 41.27 N, 50.8W. So far, the "Titanic" had received four ice warnings indicating that a huge ice field stretched across her projected course. Unfortunately, none of the ships Officers realized this since of the four messages, only the first one from the "Caronia" had been posted on the chart. To make matters worse, that afternoon the wireless set went out again and the harried Marconi men worked several hours to repair it. All the while, passenger messages continued to back up. Finally, around 7 P.M. the set was repaired, just in time to receive yet another warning, this one from the Leyland liner "Californian" reporting three large bergs to the southwest of her. The "Californian's" reported position meant that the ice was only about 50 miles ahead. Ice warning number 5.
And people today still ignore danger ahead primarily because they have never been properly warned; and nowhistory is about to repeat itself, but in such great ways only through example with the Titanic as the ship being this world with civilization as passengers who refuse warnings. Today this whole planet is filled with the Captain Smith's and Bruce Ismay alias shepherds that don't even know the captain of their souls; Therefore they take God's words of warning as unknown non importance while remaining stupidly silent or stuffing them in their pocket as in double stupid only to make way for the ships hull to be ripped open to slowly sink with billions on board that were never warned with the consequences of not walking on the waters of God's truth that could have saved the lives of this entire human race if they only had been delivered the message of truth through genuine love with care and concern for their lives rather than self direction of man with ZEROED true knowledge.
In every word of truth that I strive to write with God as my pilot who instructs me as His co-pilot through non stop night and day efforts for years now, one of my greatest concerns focus on innocent children of all ages who have never been taught any true education centered on God, therefore the great suffering they all shall sadly enter will leave them only terrified while having absolutely no understanding of what's taking place or why as life only becomes worse beyond words; and with the same concerned feelings for just good people at heart everywhere on earth that are about to be blindsided so hard that first millions will perish from death while leading into hundreds of millions; and then reaching into billions worldwide through these coming years filled with profound, fearsome, intense, blistering, excruciating, ferocious, frightful and fiercely violent events that are now getting ready to make their leap with a stomp upon this world's population that has no understanding or preparedness.
Today's world controllers of darkness place no value whatsoever on any human life anywhere on earth because of a mind set no different that Joseph Stalin who murdered at least twenty million people while needlessly starving to death another 1.5 million; and because figures greatly vary, he may have been responsible for the deaths of up to 60 million people. Welcome to what's coming---but into the billions.
Today's Titanic as The Only World Book with Truth This World Knows Not
When a person has been in the same square mile for almost 5 years on the other side of the world from Chicago, and was placed there through a spiritual lead as a prisoner disassociated from the world doing time as a student of God in order to gain some true knowledge, which is understanding of God, the time has arrived for a book that I have been writing with spiritual inspiration working 14-18 hours each day for months with a prior over 300 lengthy posts on God, this world and reality that have had 200-400 thousand views through years behind me as part of my needed education for the writing of a book having to do with only proven facts regarding God and the lives of every human being on earth. And every human being means just that regardless of their creed or location; and that is because everyone is in for a completely unknown rude awakening.
Ready for truth over three billion believers don't believe?
"And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.{Revelation 12:9}-{KJV}
"The LORD looked down from heaven upon the children of men, to see if there were any that did understand, and seek God.
"They are all gone aside, they are all together become filthy: there is none that doeth good, no, not one. {Psalms 14:2-3}
The difference between me and the religions of this world is that I believe every word of God as written without doubt, without question and with no confusion; and I even very clearly understand why He speaks those words. But this world of man made religions with their own man made specially brewed doctrines don't believe one word of what God speaks that goes against their own superior doctrines all through His words of truth that all believers are to live by; and that is because when certain words of God such as you just read above does not match their own words and beliefs, they all on earth as believers just flat out reject what God said while telling anyone that believes God that the words are out of context when their scattered brain is the only thing out of context;
And in proving mans deluded mind, there is just one simple verse from God that is written in the book as being an example of one of the most important verses in the entire Bible that concerns the life of every believer in God on this earth; and God very clearly shows every believer with absolutely zeroed confusion that when "THE WORD" all believers have been commanded to live by instructs or commands, we all must obey of face the consequences. Therefore if we reject what we are instructed to do by THE WORD, God in the same way is going to reject us all from His mercy through these coming years just as made so very clear in the book over and over again with "THE WORD" as proof. And what I just spoke has come from God's lead because His own words prove themselves just as written. I could tell you the verse that you need to read, but if I were to do that, I would be robbing you of having to seek silver and search for hid treasure which is the fear of the Lord that sluggards will never gain.
And "THE WORD" also makes very clear that any believers who participate in the doctrines or traditions of man will gain the result of making the WORDS OF GOD to become as nothing in their lives; and as for me, I just believe every word of God that is out of context to a world of believers that know more than God.
Therefore, as a man of God who has been chosen just as written in John 15:19, I have absolutely no association with the people of this world in worldly ways or any of the religions on man scattered all over this planet because they all have been bamboozled, misguided, hoaxed, conned, duped, suckered, buffaloed, hoodwinked, faked out, mislead, fooled, cozen, deluded and double-crossed only to leave a whole world of believers left as stultified being useless and ineffectual while appearing stupid and illogical.
Don't like those words? Then go to church and pay for their lies that give a false uplifting just as a million tear jerking lip love hymns to God while not even given the respect of believing His every word. Want to know God? Then you best right now start flushing this human race full of lies that will go down with their ship—period! You can still love them all because they know not what they do, but be not part of them just as Christ speaks to those not of this world.
According to God who knows not time, this planet earth has already lost all worldly human life in the billions that were on the wrong road through the coming years of great world chaos with every evil way that has ever been known to man; and when any individual becomes very close to God in mind and heart with His Spirit through full obedience to His Book of Instruction, they can just see things as written rather than all the money sucking bull spit lies of man that thrive on know it all pride and super egos when in truth, they don't even know God according to His own words they don't even believe; therefore have become the shepherds worldwide that don't feed their congregations as the blind leading the blind right into their own shed blood. So says "THE WORD" in Ezekiel 34 that is out of context to the world of shepherds murdering their followers while being paid to kill.
And this world of passengers on the sinking world ship today is no different through not hearing while judging with stultified ignorance even though there is solid proof of this world's fall through God Almighty who is far greater than any one individual on earth even gives Him any credit or respect for in any way whatsoever beyond lip love while walking in darkness when compared to God's instruction that is not only disobeyed, but not even known or believed. Therefore death, destruction with waste and desolation is coming; and this book gives very great detail as to why this world has been beguiled and hoodwinked while being strung along on lies only to be double – crossed.
This Book has been written for all mankind; and through time as the levees break, more, and more, and more, and more people will read it while sinking in life's disasters with no life-line and only wanting to know why. So it's the big picture in advance that few will bother with now; and when they do it will be too late, but at least they can still learn why all these things have occurred.
Today's Titanic as
The Only Book with Truth this World Knows Not
And your life unknowingly depends on these words in deeper ways than your mind will allow; and that's a promise guaranteed.
Written By Timesoftrouble
What exactly is required to gain the interest of the human race? Just how is it possible to tell a world of people how they have been unknowingly chained down with no escape as a stampede with billions of Buffalo is heading right at them in full force with no escape?
Perhaps some proven information on how the foods they eat, the products they use, the water they drink, the medications they take, the air they breathe and the extremely well maneuvered psychological feed into minds worldwide has been killing this worlds population silently in unknown ways currently and through many years past? How about some absolute proof on what you just read with many more facts on how this world's population is not only going to be reduced from 6.8 billion down to a easily controlled 500 million, but is already decades into the very well planned and organized process of doing exactly that.
And the reason for population control is because humans have become a cancer {take note} to the earth that has only been contaminating and destroying everything on this planet beginning at the greatest ocean depths and upwards. And just for me to elaborate deeply on just what man has done to the soil, water and air would be no different than sitting down, getting comfortable, and beginning within our little million book library filled with facts on just how many billions of pounds or uncountable containers of every kind of toxic waste, contaminated medical waste, radioactive waste, biological waste, and chemical waste has been dumped into oceans, rivers, lakes, landfills, desert areas, rural areas, private property with big pay and just anywhere on this planet where big corruption with big bucks can illegally and silently dispose of what kills everything that in truth is affecting every human on earth in different ways through the travels underground by water, into masses of waters that evaporate to form clouds that rain death along with a world of airborne killers always seeking prey; and all that I have done through words thus far is create a microscopic scratch in the surface of what a lifetime of studies on all the ways that man kills man with absolutely zeroed concern for human life other than their own. Welcome to the human race ruled by man who is totally incapable.
Were you aware that the worldwide arsenals of NBC {Nuclear, Biological, and Chemical} weapons have the names of billions in this world written all over them? Has not every weapon ever created by man always been used? And just those few words spelling massive death are but only a minute surface scratch regarding the content in this book; and that is because what's written within these pages greatly concerns every living being on this planet; and what makes this book unique are the facts alone that it has not been written for money, not for popularity, not for pride, not for friends, not as a novel, not as a mind bender, and not just some worthless story, but rather a book inspired by our creator through a lifetime of human education through worldly existence filled with life's storms, twenty years of the Bible privately, and the last five years as a prison in life with no where to go and nothing to do other than making a slow spiritual exit from this world known to man for the purpose of seeing things just as our creator with this book as a message from Him to this entire world's civilization of every creed because the beginning of the end has arrived, but not in the ways the minds of man think, teach and believe because in truth, man knows nothing. Therefore I speak no bull, vacuum no love offerings, tell no lies, have no greed, make no human guesses, have no interpretations, make no judgments, and possess no self genius because by myself I would know nothing spiritually; and could do nothing without an unseen lead; therefore I say again, this is an inspired book with only truth this entire world's civilization needs to be made aware of no matter what creed or where on earth they may be.
What about life's actual current situation everywhere on earth with true unknown details that absolutely nobody gives any thought too?
Earth alias Planet Death and Destruction in route alias Planet Toxic Junkyard filled with toxins, poisons, nuclear waste, nuclear lobsters, ocean islands as floating plastic, massive fertilized killer farm lands with killer soils and killer rains that only make what's grown even more deadly in a sickly world of sickness from dying fish to birds to animals to a world of sick human beings with every killer substance ever created by man that has made its home in the soil, water and air which has created a vicious circle with no way possible to keep it from our bodies inside and out; along with the poisons big brother feeds this world through processed foods, dairy and more; and this book has much more detail of how you are now dying, short lived, overweight, low IQ, poor health, poor life, memory problems, mental problems and psychological as a caged animal that has no knowledge of where it truly is. Its now wake up call.
The ways things truly are.
Earth is polluted by its very own people,
who have broken its laws,
Disrupted its order,
violated the sacred and eternal covenant.
Therefore a curse, like a cancer,
ravages the earth.
Its people pay the price of their sacrilege.
They dwindle away, dying out one by one.
No more wine, no more vineyards,
no more songs or singers.
The laughter of castanets is gone,
the shouts of celebrants, gone,
the laughter of fiddles, gone.
No more parties with toasts of champagne.
Serious drinkers gag on their drinks.
The chaotic cities are unlivable. Anarchy reigns.
Every house is boarded up, condemned.
People riot in the streets for wine,
but the good times are gone forever—
no more joy for this old world.
The city is dead and deserted,
bulldozed into piles of rubble.
That's the way it will be on this earth.
This is the fate of all nations:
An olive tree shaken clean of its olives,
a grapevine picked clean of its grapes.
{Isaiah 24:4-6}-{The Message}
There is no truth on earth other than the truth that nobody hears; and the liars known as mankind will tell you different; and because you will believe man---That is the reason there is no truth in this world.
And those who have given their lives only for spreading the truth become the most hated, judged and unheard people on earth; and they already know of their own future because THE WORD being the only truth they know had told them in advance what their life would become. Yet when we become as God's co-pilot with ONLY HIM at the controls for direction, we just do as directed because we have become no longer of this world; and spiritually speaking in very simple and easy to understand words, being not of this world clearly state exactly what they mean through becoming an individual that only exists 24x7x52= God while having no life on earth with no spiritual association with this human race in the flesh including every man made religion of man on earth.
Another view from a different angle would be if you yourself were to just flush this entire corrupted world down the toilet once as in a done deal, because that's where it's headed anyway----and what you have done is too separate yourself from it's own coming flush by changing lanes onto a different road unknown to the many of this world which has made you to become one of the few that will hear these words rather than one of the many who get flushed with this entire civilization. And that does not mean they will not have eternal life, but rather their slow, long and hard road through living years with no mercy in the greatest timesoftrouble that have ever before been to obtain it, and will obtain eternal life through God's ways and in God's time.
The writing of this book has efforts upon efforts upon efforts; and that is because striving best as humanly possible with faith as my only fuel for life, all I do each day from sun up to sun down is write with all the people on earth being the directed target in my mind with everything written directly to them as a government official within God's Government being for the people and to serve the people with only truth. And as you will learn through this book, children are one of my greatest concerns because I have been around them of all ages steadily for the past five years while coming to see them in a different way through their innocence with an unknown to them great suffering coming on them all that truly grieves my heart in spiritual ways the people of this world just don't understand; and there are billions of people of all ages worldwide who just as all small children know only their life as it is and nothing more; and adults who can think are being warned.
But what about children from toddlers up who are just to little to think? So what happens in their minds when their life becomes placed within a chaotic world full of crimes, death, hunger, thirst, abuse, sickness, terror and just every word of darkness within all the languages of this world? What will be a child's reaction when awakening within a terrifying nightmare that has come to life as their life with no way out?
Adults are adults with minds to make their own decision, but how can children make decisions on what they have never been taught? And the sad fact of the matter is, adults have never been taught God's truth either; therefore not only will they suffer, but precious children all over this world that have never done any wrongs to any person will greatly suffer by their sides through having to pay the price for a world that has been mislead by deliberate misrepresentation through the father of lies and god of this world that God Almighty through His "THE WORD" has warned over 3 billion believers of through Satan's power; but all on earth have rejected the words of who they all claim to believe in; and will continue as the many of this world on the road as the broad way that leads to their destruction while the few in the narrow way will have God's mercy which leads to life.
And all through this book will be the words of God as a spike with me as the sledge hammering over and over such as Proverbs 1:5, 7, 22-33, 2:4-6, 6:4-6 that were written for now and today being the most important words of your life without all the man made doctrines and money sucking lies that are going to suck the life from billions.
And to put any trust in man whatsoever is no different than putting trust into the Titanic; and that is because this great ship called earth is about to begin slowly sinking over these coming years while turning this human race into just what the only truth has told you through THE WORD in the scripture you read above with this entire book being written for everyone on this planet as a steady flow to always follow as breaking news from God that this world knows nothing of.

Confetti Cookies (Adapted from Momofuku Milk Bar)
For the birthday cake crumbs
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 1/2 tablespoons packed brown sugar
3/4 cup cake flour - 90 grams, if weighing
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons rainbow sprinkles
3 tablespoons grapeseed oil
1 tablespoon vanilla, clear if you can find it
For the cookie dough
2 1/2 cups bread flour - 400 grams, if weighing
2/3 cup dry milk powder
2 teaspoons cream of tartar
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 1/4 teaspoons salt
1/4 cup rainbow sprinkles
16 tablespoons (1 cup or 2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
2 tablespoons glucose (use 1 tablespoon corn syrup if you can't find glucose)
2 large eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla, clear if you can find it
half the amount of the birthday cake crumbs
To prepare the crumbs
Preheat oven to 300 degrees.
In a large mixing bowl, add sugars, flour, baking powder, salt and sprinkles - mix on low until well combined. Pour in oil and vanilla - mix to evenly distributed and small clusters begin to form.
Spread the crumbs out onto a parchment-lined baking sheet. Place into the oven and bake, breaking the crumbs up occasionally, for 18 to 20 minutes. The crumbs are ready when they are slightly moist to the touch, but starting to crisp up - they will harden as they cool. Set aside and allow to cool completely before using.
You will need half of the amount for the cookie dough - I recommend making the recipe as is and keep the leftovers in the freezer to sprinkle on ice cream or to nibble on. You could also just make half the recipe if you like.
To prepare the cookie dough
In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, milk powder, cream of tartar, baking soda, salt and sprinkles.
In a large mixing bowl, beat together the butter, sugar and glucose until very creamy, about 2 to 3 minutes. Scrape down the sides of the bowl and the beater - add eggs and vanilla. Beat for an additional 7 to 8 minutes (don't skimp - set a timer), stopping to scrape down the sides of the bowl once or twice.
Reduce the mixer speed to low and add the dry ingredients, mixing just until the dough barely comes together - do not over-mix. Add the birthday cake crumbs and stir by hand just until incorporated.
Using a medium cookie scoop (about 2 heaping tablespoons per cookie - slightly less than 2 ounces), portion out the dough onto a parchment-lined sheet pan. Lightly pat the tops of the cookie balls flat. Wrap pan tightly in plastic wrap - place into the refrigerator and allow to chill overnight (you need at least a couple hours, but overnight or even 2 or 3 days is best)
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Place the cold cookie dough onto parchment-lined baking sheets, arranging them 3 to 4 inches apart to allow for spreading. Place into the oven and bake, rotating halfway through, until the tops of the cookies have crackled, the edges are lightly brown and the centers showing just a bare hint of color - about 14 to 16 minutes. Remove from the oven and allow cookies to cool completely on the pans before serving or storing.
If you'd like larger cookies, use a 2 3/4-ounce scoop (about 1/3 cup) per cookie and bake for about 18 minutes.
Makes about 25 cookies.

I half-expected to hear someone shout, "There's gold in them thar hills," as I rolled into Randsburg, Calif., which sits just off Highway 395 in the Mojave Desert south of Ridgecrest. The discovery of that precious metal gave birth to the town in 1896 when John Singleton, F. M. Mooers and Charlie Burcham filed a claim they called "The Rand." Within a few months, a saloon, barber shop, general store and even an opera house had sprung up to form what was known as Rand Camp. By 1897 it was called Randsburg, a boomtown of almost 4,000 people.
More than 110 years later, the Rand Mining Co. still operates 24 hours a day and employs about 80 workers. One miner I approached refused to confirm the rumor that 300 pounds of gold are taken from the mine each month. He just smiled when I asked him, but I noticed that he had a small golden nugget on his watch chain.
As the number of mining claims dwindled, so did the population, but not Randsburg's spirit. Many hardy souls who had founded the town stayed on, and today there are about 80 full-time residents, occupying houses as eclectic as their owners. One house is made entirely from garage doors and another only from windows, with trees in the front yard made from cast-off soda bottles. Almost every building is colorfully painted, and there are more than a few outhouses.
Butte Avenue, the main drag, is home to the White House and the Joint, authentic saloons complete with boot rails and spittoons. No liquor is served, but you can get a shot of spiced sarsaparilla. The barber shop, with its traditional striped pole, advertises baths and cigars, and the opera house opens from time to time for special events.
I followed the hitching posts that line the wooden boardwalk to discover the wonderful little Rand Desert Museum, a natural history museum manned by town volunteers in period costume eager to spend an afternoon sharing local lore with visitors.
On the edge of town a mule tethered to a hitching post tried to lick my camera, and I passed a weathered tortoise out for a leisurely stroll. Randsburgians love their tortoises; these desert tanks are treated as valued pets and claim protected status. Residents make a point of telling visitors that tortoises do not handle stress easily, as it causes them to pass water, making them vulnerable to the desert heat.
Residents also love their town and have gone to great lengths to keep it as it was a century ago. The wall outside the Rand Mining Co. sports a faded sign that reads, "Everything for Blasting" and "Explosives, caps and fuses," while the local post office has a sign over the door that proclaims "End of the trail."
As I ambled through town, it realized how apt that sign was. Time has truly stood still at the end of the trail in Randsburg.

We run WRF and MM5, NCARG, NCL and Gempak here. One cluster is SuSE (came that way, didn't change it) and another is Rocks (an experiment). Likely, when we reimage everything it will be Fedora. Fedora 7 (and 6, I think) have RPMs for netcdf and ncarg which saves a little bit of the headache associated with their install... but only a little. I suspect we'll go with Fedora or CentOS depending on a coin-toss or a previous night's beer-laden decision, but we'll almost certainly use a yum-based updater for convenience. As Mark points out, distros are mostly for eye-candy. Our typical install is stripped down, then we customize with packages (like WRF, WPS, NCARG and Gempak) and parallelizable packages like NetCDF, which isn't out in rpm, I don't think) manually. We won't intentionally use AiX (which is on our IBM p575 Cluster1600) intentionally. If I take over the care and feeding of that system, it's likely to grow linux if we can get drivers for the Foundation switches. gerry -- Gerry Creager -- gerry.creager at tamu.edu Texas Mesonet -- AATLT, Texas A&M University Cell: 979.229.5301 Office: 979.458.4020 FAX: 979.862.3983 Office: 1700 Research Parkway Ste 160, TAMU, College Station, TX 77843

Greetings to everyone!
I'm a first time Storyteller, and intend to run a game shortly that will be a twist on the Super Hero Civil War, from the Marvel comics. I'm taking the original incident that sparked the series of events, and then dropping the players into the aftermath, I intend to have it run more Hero vs Corrupt government types (Similar to the Mutant registration act) rather then Hero pro registration V Hero con registration, but a Rogue Hero working for the Bad guys for the Right Reasons would be acceptable. I'm just looking for thoughts or ideas I can use to fire up my imagination, I have so many ideas I think it's giving me a block, so anyone with a thought or an idea please feel free to let me know what you think. Thanks in advance.
Super Hero Cival War
Here M&M GMs can trade tips and seek inspiration. Look out for SPOILERS! Players, surf elsewhere or ruin your own fun.

Re: Super Hero Cival War
I think the best thing about this type of story is put any character in as a potential foe. Heroes fight heroes, heroes fight villains, heroes team with villains against a common foe, etc.
If you are going with a "corrupt government" angle, I recommend looking into the Dark Avengers series where Norman Osborn takes over SHIELD and it becomes HAMMER. Might be a good jumping off point for you

Re: Super Hero Cival War
Okay I like that idea, Oscorp and a few other "industry" types have already been introduced in the game, building beta tested Sentinels,for the government. Norman Osborne himself has been absent the game (and it's unclear if his company's participation is voluntary or not) so I could still use him as a villain, Green goblin or otherwise, perhaps aiding the heroes to destroy the Sentinels, or working with the support of the Government as a "registered" super human.
