I've just realised how bad this March has been for me being a Eddsworld fan and a killjoy.
To start off, let's get the simple one out of the way. March 22nd. I believe there are people 'celebrating' that right now. I have about Hm 7 hours until March 22nd. There's one thing. To be Frank, that's the only My Chem thing on my calendar for March.
Now let's get into Eddsworld. To start off, 4 years ago on the 25th of March, Edd Gould died from leukaemia. He was the 'star of the show' as some may say. He was the animator and a voice actor for his character, Edd. What else? This year, this March, the Eddsworld Legacy has come to a close. No more animations, at least for a while. What else? On the 9th this month, The End Part 1 came out. 15th the Eddsworld Documentary came out. 16th The End Part 2 came out.
So I'm not having a good March. I don't hate March, it's just I hate THIS March. Although, saying that so much good has come from this March. I don't want to be a person where bad overtakes good. I'll try not to be too upset tomorrow XD

Credit Debt and you also
Each year, most people are helplessly captured in personal credit card debt for factors that could have been stopped. With this write-up, let's discuss some items you ought to learn about credit history charge cards so you may appreciate the benefits they supply whilst steering clear of the lure of undesirable financial debt.
1. Don't are obligated to pay a lot more than you really can afford. A great deal men and women expense pricey acquisitions to their credit card pondering that they are able to invest spread the money they owe for two weeks in any case. But these kinds of reasoning usually ends in bad personal debt.
Keep in mind, if you select to shell out merely the minimum because of and use a equilibrium, you'll have to invest the interest rates which may range from 10% to twentyPer-cent, depending on the kind of credit card you personal.
2. Prepare your pay back. Sometimes, having a credit standing minute card to invest in a need makes feeling but you need to know precisely how you may get it and exactly how lengthy you'll keep a steadiness. For instance, in case your charge card gives zero interest for 6 weeks, you may utilize this interval to create a huge acquire if you have the ability to complete your installments prior to the typical fee does apply.
3. Take your obligations really. Having a credit card involves a significant duty. If you can't abide through the conditions and instances within your issuer, you might be reprimanded with charges and to your credit rating are affected. Conversely, if you are mindful of someone's privileges together with your limits like a credit score greeting card dish and also you take care of your requirements really, then you definitely are able to handle to your credit rating credit card without concerns.
4. Understand how credit card use impacts your credit score credit score. Definitely, the way you manage your bank card or credit history credit cards have a very significant influence on your personal credit rating. Think about observe that 35% of your respective FICO credit score is based on timeliness of transaction. Credit history reduce usage is the one other factor utilized to determine to your credit rating. Preferably, consumers must preserve their credit standing restrict use at 35% or reduce to sustain an outstanding rating.
5. Never neglect the matter. If you think maybe you won't be able to submit your payment promptly for just about any explanation, get in touch with your credit card supplier immediately and order if the due evening could possibly be prolonged or in the event the late charges be waived making it simpler for you to meet up with your repayments. The most detrimental factor that you can do once you are unable to spend your bills is always to ignore the problem or to conceal from a creditors. If you're going through a difficult predicament or economic situation, checking along with your lender and seeking to work through a greater pay back choice can make concerns simpler for you.
6. Contemplate debt consolidation. If to your credit rating greeting card credit card debt seems impossible, it may seem about loan consolidation by having a secured bank loan or perhaps personal debt combination home loan. Yet another doable response is usually to use for a absolutely no curiosity stableness exchange credit rating minute card so you can give attention to having to pay only the preliminary amount of debt you borrowed from with out incurring thirty day period-to-month interest rate fees.

So this week and weekend I did some gross tuning on the keel bulb.
I started out by drilling the holes for the cross bolts. I first drilled the recess for the bolt head using a 7/8" standard spade bit. Slow and steady is the name of the game when drilling lead. I know that other builders used loads of cutting oil, but I opted for water as I wanted to avoid extensive cleaning before trying to apply fairing filler. I also set the clutch on the drill to about half to avoid shearing off a drill bit. This worked great. After the countersink was done, I drilled a 7/32" pilot hole through the first bulb half. I then pulled out a 12" long 5/16" diameter brad point bit. With the drill on the low setting, small "bites" into the lead worked awesome. Pulling the bit out to clear it after 50 or so revolutions seemed to be the key. Once I made it through the first half, I laid the bulb over the keel foil to drill that hole, and then laid both on the second bulb half and drilled through. Finally, I drilled the counter sink on the other side.
If I had to do it again, I would have bought a long bit to drill a 1/4" pilot hole all the way through. With a 5/16" hole on the second half, it was difficult to drill the counter sink without the bit wobbling and I had to lug the 80-lb bulb half to my office to use the drill press. Incidentally, I tried a 1" Forstner bit on the second set of countersinks, and when using low RPM, it worked a treat.
OK, so the bolts are drilled and I am good to go, right? But, it turned out that the cast bulb halves contracted quite a bit as they cooled in the mold. This left the a 1/2" - 5/8" gap between the halves when I put then together. A preliminary weighing told me than I was also about 10 lbs below max weight. So I came up with a decent solution to fill the gap and add as much weight as possible. I started by folding a piece of aluminum foil into ~1" strips (probably 8-10 layers thick) and layed the Al strips onto the tacky side of regular old duct tape. I then used my homemade foil tape to create a dam to seal up the gap so that I could do a second lead pour.
My scheme worked great and the duct tape only melted a little. Best of all: no leaks! The second pour probably added about 8 lbs to the bulb weight and I am darn close to max class weight (185lbs for the bulb and keel strut).
I now have a coat of fairing filler on the bulb and fairing continues on the rudder, but it is quite close.
Stay tuned!

Integer solutions are x = + or - 1
Thanks Alan
I would not have thought to do that.
How can you tell that there will be another solution as as $$x\rightarrow -\infty$$ ?
Because, if you look at the original form of the equation, 4-∞ = 0, 6-∞ = 0 and 9-∞ = 0 i.e. each of the terms on the LHS is individually zero.
In that limit my rearranged version of the equation doesn't hold, because a divide by zero would be involved.

PSYC 7040: Adult Learning and Assessment
On-line section
Last modified: January 2010
Return to: | Ed Psyc Interactive: Courses | Homepage |
Adult learning and Assessment is one of the core courses in the M.Ed. degree in Adult & Career Education or the Vocational Education program. The on-line section of this course differs slightly from a classroom-based section in that there are no on-campus class meetings and all course activities are done via the Internet. However, the prerequisites for the course (RSCH 7100), the major objectives, and course grading policies are the same. Additionally, whereas a classroom-based course requires a minimum level of class attendance and participation, the web-based course requires participation via technology (during the Spring, 2010, semester there will be a one-hour weekly audio chat to be held on Wednesday evenings at 5:30pm) This can sometimes provide challenges that are not faced by students in on-campus courses and requires a level of personal discipline (and patience) beyond that to which you may have become accustomed as a graduate student.
The course materials consist of a set of articles and additional materials, many of which are available on the web. The web materials can be accessed by selecting "Educational Psychology Interactive" above and then linking to "Dr. Huitt's materials" under PSYC 7040. Links to the course syllabus and course objectives are available. You will also see a link to Blazeview; that is where you will be able to access Power Point presentations with an audio narrative for some of the topics and where we will discuss questions on course objectives via a bulletin board. In addition to the bulletin board we will participate in one-hour weekly audio chat sessions using Horizon Wimba (accessed through Blazeview).
The minimum requirements for participation in the course are:
First Steps:
If you don't know your VSU account name, follow these steps:
1. Go to the VSU Home Page and click on the Registration and Advising (Banner) entry.
2. Log into Banner just as you did to register for classes using your Social Security Number and Birthdate [mmddyy format] (or Banner Pin if you have changed it).
3.Follow the menu entries (Personal Information, Email Address) to access your VSU username and a temporary password.
4.Click on the "change your password" on that form and select a secure password you won't forget.
Time Involvement:
A normal 3-hour graduate course meets for 3 hours per week (6 hours during the summer semester) with an expectation of 2 to 3 hours of additional work per hour of class time. The total time involvement for the fall or spring semester is likely to be between 9 and 12 hours per week, including a weekly audio chat; the summer semester web-based course is therefore likely to be 18 to 24 hours per week, including two weekly audio chats.
Successful Study Habits:
The course consists of a series of modules that address specific course objectives. There are several steps that students have found helpful as they learn to master the course material:
- Read the objective and determine the specific content or skill to be learned. Go to WebCT and read the questions you will need to answer in the bulletin board. Note: You will need an ID (your VSU email account name) and password (your birthdate in ddmmyy format). You will be assigned a VSU account by computer technology if you don't already have one.
- If you think you already know know something about the objective make a few notes from your own knowledge. For example, one of the terms you need to be able to define is "education." Take one minute (but no more) to make a few notes about your definition of education.
- Write down a few key words about information that you might need to learn.
- View the Power Point presentation for the objective (if available, a link will be provided on the materials list; a presentation with audio is available via WebCT for most of the objectives.) Actively compare what you are reading to your initial notes and questions.
- Read the web-based materials for the objective. Again, actively compare what you are reading to your initial notes and questions.
- Read the text pages and any additional required material. Again, actively compare what you are reading to your initial notes and questions.
- Answer questions posted on the WebCT bulletin board and read and respond to other students' postings.
- Prepare an outline for the objective making sure to cover all the points in the objective and the help statement.
- Talk or chat with the instructor about the week's readings. You should be prepared with specific questions you want answered.
- Review this material prior to your taking an exam.
Does this sound like a form of SQ4R? If you are familiar with this study method, you should recognize the steps. Prior to this course, some students have formed the habit of simply reading the required materials and then repeating back what they have memorized. The exams and the optional paper that you will do in this class, however, will be graded, in large part, on your ability to analyze and evaluate information and give examples and applications in an educational setting. In some cases, especially on the 3rd or 4th exam, you may also be required to synthesize information and provide original solutions to problems faced by educators. Sample exam questions and answers, as well as sample papers, are provided that exemplify the requirements for this course.
I am looking forward to working with you this semester. It is important to get off to a good start; procrastination can be an ulcer-producing activity in an online course. As soon as I get your email address I will provide additional instructions on what to do next.

tu jek kesimpulan bg cter neh.
huhu.Percy Jackson (PJ) sgt cute okeh!haha
sinopsis :
Trouble-prone Percy Jackson is having problems in high school – but that's the least of his challenges. It's the 21st century, but the gods of Mount Olympus seem to have walked out of the pages of Percy's Greek mythology texts and into his life. Percy has learned that his real father is Poseidon, god of the sea, which means Percy is a demigod – half human, half god. At the same time, Zeus, the king of all gods, has accused Percy of stealing Zeus' lightning bolt...the original weapon of mass destruction.
Now, Percy must prepare for the adventure of a lifetime, and the stakes couldn't be higher.
With ominous storm clouds brewing over the planet and his own life now in peril, Percy travels to a special enclave called Camp Half Blood, where he trains to harness his newly discovered powers and prevent a devastating war among the gods. There, Percy meets two fellow demigods – the warrior Annabeth, who is searching for her mother, the goddess Athena; and his childhood friend and protector, Grover, who is actually a brave but untested Satyr.
Grover and Annabeth then join Percy on an incredible transcontinental odyssey that takes them six hundred stories above New York City (the portal to Mount Olympus) and to the iconic Hollywood sign, under which burn the fires of the Underworld. At journey's end rests the fate of the world – and the life of Percy's mother Sally, whom Percy must rescue from the depths of Hell itself.cter neh mmg sgt best ntok ditonton.

The Munich region is located as hub of the west-east and north-south trade in a top location in the middle of the heart of Europe. All economic centres can be easily reached. This location and optimal local conditions for enterprises found Munich's position as one of the most important economic hubs on the continent.
When comparing the metropolitan areas, the citizens of the Munich region have the highest purchasing power. This may be attributed, above all, to the modern regional economic structure with a surpassing proportion of highly-qualified workforce, a corresponding level of wages/salaries and a low unemployment rate.
Unterschleißheim: The city of Unterschleißheim is in the north of the district of Munich, directly adjacent to the Bavarian capital of Munich. Unterschleißheim is the largest city of the district area of Munich.

Fast fashion retailer Zara is in hot water for one of its newest designs, which is being called out on social media as an example of cultural appropriation.
You can read more about the case here.
I have a cool story on the issue. Once I entered a grocery store wearing a blue patterned jacket. A woman stopped me and started complimenting me and my jacket, she said it reminded her of her homeland, Tajikistan. She was really excited to see it, she complimented the way I combined it in my look, she couldn't let me go.
And this is the difference between those always offended bitches and a nice positive person embracing cultural friendship.
And only you choose your path and way of thinking.
Everyone is offended by everything today
I decided to try to implement an offended-by-everything way of thinking into my mind
I went to a farmers market next to my place to buy vegetables. There was a farmer (white male, damn patriarchy!), he wanted to be nice with me, and complimented my coat. Was it because he thought I'm an empty-head woman and clothes is all 'm interested in?! I'm offended! Then he told me that it is very easy to cook artichokes. Did he assume that I was going to cook it because I'm a woman and my place is in the kitchen?! Did he say that because he thought I'm a bad cook and can't cook a complicated dish?! I'm offended! Or maybe he thought I'm fat and this is the reason he offered me artichokes and not potatoes?! I'm offended!
Then my friend texted me and asked how was my gym. Is it because she finds me fat?! I'm offended!
This experiment was soo tiresome, so I decided not to be offended, but to be happy instead. And this is what I wish for all of you
Hi there!
Missed me?
I was on a short internet-free vacation. No social media, no news, no political discussions.
And you know what? It was AWESOME!
I feel so clean, so calm, so nice
I enjoyed my info detox. You should definitely try it

The appearance of the cellulite is caused by unhealthy lifestyle or by genetics. The cellulite consists free – floating fat cells which are deposited under the skin.

How A Nutritionist Loses 20 Pounds/
As seen on MindBodyGreen...
As a nutritionist and health consultant in private practice, I know my stuff. But it takes more than knowing my stuff to reach my own health and wellness goals. Despite the cliché, I have in mind to get into the best shape of my life, AND I have about 20 pounds to lose. I'm planning on success and using these simple tools.
- Set a realistic goal. Healthy weight loss is 1-2 pounds per week and I'm a practical person so err on the side of super realistic. One pound a week would be 20 weeks which is about 5 months, almost half a year, a couple of seasons away, so that's the goal.
- Banish the scale. Rather than focusing on the number, I focus on how I feel and how my clothes fit. The most I allow myself to step on the scale is once a week, and even once a month will do.
- Healthy stress levels. Out of control stress can cause weight gain and over-eating. Expect that stressful times will come up over the next six months and it's okay to fall off the wagon and get back up. This is not a zero sum game.
- Keep it positive and treat yourself compassionately at all times. This is important so I'll say it again…TREAT YOURSELF COMPASSIONATELY AT ALL TIMES. Not doing so great with your health routine, just inhaled a burger and milkshake? Start small and start again at the next meal. Don't give up or feel sorry for yourself for too long (I know we all do this!).
- Find good FOOD, and find a diet that works for you. Everyone is different and it might take a little trial and error to figure out what's best for you. Get professional help if you need it.
- Use weight to lose weight. Strength training will help you feel good and get your shape back as the weight starts to come off. Keep some dumbbells on the TV stand if you need to.
- And finally, get professional help if you need it, and not just a nutritionist. You may need a coach, therapist, or personal trainer. You are worth it, and your health is important so don't skimp!

Off to Havana!
A boy is thrilled to visit his new cousin in the city, but another member of the family, the beautiful, blue antique car called Cara Cara, isn't quite ready yet. (The importance of family and the fact that technology and money are in limited supply come together in the affection the boy holds for Cara Cara, the family heirloom that's been inventively repaired over many years and will belong to the boy himself someday.) Finally, after the boy and his father tinker under the hood, they are off. Colorful, detailed illustrations and animated, evocative text, peppered with Spanish and full of the excitement of a journey, guide readers through their small Cuban town, over roadways, and past other vintage cars to the destination—a family celebration! Energetic descriptions engage virtually all of the senses and will draw in readers across gender, race—the characters are primarily brown-skinned, and the protagonist's family is mixed-race, with a black father and pale-skinned mother—and nationality, while politics go unmentioned, as appropriate to the age of the audience. By focusing on the boy's observations and experiences—clothing hanging on a line, the understanding that you'll always give your neighbors a ride, the sights and sounds of old cars, the presence of crumbling balconies, the scent of the sea—Engle and Curato provide a child's view of Cuba that is extremely accessible and as striking as it is unforgettable.
A vibrant snapshot of modern Cuba, full of rich, sensory detail. (Picture book. 3-8)

Hey! Did you hear Interpol on the OC last night!?
They just kind of slipped it in there...you had to have been really listening closely to have heard it.
Ok, I feel bad ragging on the show this week cause, despite the Evil overkill, it was a pretty great episode, with a good handful of music favs from 2004 thrown in there. (Portions for Foxes, Pretty (Ugly Before)). Most importantly, there were some semblances of a plot developing out of this near waste of a season. Every episode so far felt like it was wrapped up into a little package by the end of the hour, with no real interesting plot arches reaching across multiple episodes. Now we've got Sandy with the ex-love, Marissa and Alex exploring possibilities, and something finally interesting is going on between Seth and Summer that actually makes sense and advances their relationship. (When was the last time you actually cared about these guys till last night?) Yeah, there are still some quirks, like the whole Caleb thinking Ryan is only out for his money thing that came out of nowhere, and that they still don't know what to do with the Ryan and Lindsay relationship, but at least the show is finally moving along. I haven't looked forward to the next episode this much since the end of the last season. Hopefully this is a permanent change for the better.
For more analysis, check out Spinach Dip's weekly reviews.
Naturally the blogs were all over this article in the Post yesterday. I thought the best part was Jason from The Dark Room admitting he can't even stand going to his own bar on weekends because the Bridge and Tunnel take over. That's rough. But then we here about a murder on Rivington St., and everybody starts to think that maybe more rich people isn't the worst thing after all...
Spencer over at Golden Fiddle has a fantastic photo essay of a night at an Arcade Fire show...which barely consisted of any Arcade Fire at all. Brilliant.
So...Somehow I turned this crazy, show-every-night week into a pretty laid back stay-at-homefest. I've got a bit of downtime for the next few days, but then February 1st the city is back under the Arcade Fire's spell for two nights. After that there's Low, then Rouge Wave, then MIA, then the Superbowl, them much much much much more throughout the month. All in all, I've got plans so far to hit up a show at least 17 nights out of the 28 days of February. And I know I prolly seem crazy, but there is A LOT of really good shit coming to town next month. So what else is there to do but go see as much as you can?
March I guess isn't gonna be much quieter, and now I see that The Doves are playing Bowery Ballroom on the 15th! Holy moly. I would have expected them to be hitting up a much much bigger joint in NYC. They seemed like a "two nights at Irving" type of band to me. Anyway, Tickets go on sale today at Noon for a well worth it $25. What great news to start the weekend!

Hey! Did you hear Interpol on the OC last night!?

I'm so happy with what this has become.
30 of our friends crammed into our cabin (and balcony) after the band on Saturday for a cozy late night.
Each year I do my best to promote Pajama Party, and think of ways to make it better. Each year I'm entertained and surprised with what works, and what doesn't.
This year we tried cocktails, which didn't work. It's just not really the setting for it. We'll go back to beer & wine next year.
We tried making popcorn over the fire, which totally worked, though was we ran out too fast :)
(also, it takes a surprisingly long time to melt butter over the fire. who knew?)
Have an idea we haven't tried yet? Comment below!
We sang
We danced
(and Sara made a Unicorn roar and then fell over)
We told jokes
We met new friends (who are you, and why are you in my cabin?)
We played the largest game of CAH I've ever been part of.
(though there is no evidence of this)
We wound down and closed our door(s) at 4am, full of smiles and soon off to sleep.
Thank you all for coming, and contributing. This party wouldn't be worth it's salt if only the hosts contributed. Thank you for singing, playing music, dancing, joking, storytelling, and whatever else I missed by being on the other side of the room.
I'd like to give a special Thank You to my co-host Monica Lenk. Without you, this would be much more difficult to put on. So I'm glad you're still game for this crazy thing.
I only missed one class this weekend, which is a record for me, because we needed extra party cleanup time on Sunday morning (and I didn't want to miss Lindy Games, nor the traditional post-camp lunch in town).
We throw parties in-town with some frequency (in a bigger house). If you'd like to be invited, just leave a comment.
This year's flyer, and previous descending years.

Subject: The Cities
Tue Nov 01, 2011 1:53 am
During the chaos that the Hellgates brought, travelling became extremely dangerous. The underground rail systems provided some safety, but as more and more demons and other foul Hellbeasts began to take over the cities, many closed their gates. As the south of the country was eradicated, most cities began to close their stations, preventing any safe access to those from other districts. Whilst this began to cause conflicts over supplies, labour and other essentials, it helped to prevent the Hellspawn left behind when the Hellgates closed from being able to contaminate everywhere completely.
As such, a definite divide has been formed between the major cities of the north. They open their gates approximately once a month in order to trade and let people travel, but for the rest of the time there is very little contact between the districts. Each has found its own speciality, the thing that it excels in, and they use their select abilities as trading tools with the other cities. People are allowed to visit the cities outside the one they reside and work in, but they have to be back home before the gates close. Failure to do so can result in harsh punishments.
When the south burned like a field of fire two years ago, many of the survivors fled north in search of shelter and safety. Each was assessed and assigned to a city where whatever skills they possessed would be of most use. Families and friends were split up, but at least they were away from the flames… mostly.
Six months ago two other cities joined the grouping, one from Scotland and one from Wales. Cardiff and Edinburgh brought new skills and techniques into the trade lines and offered more space and facilities for the refugees.
So… Which city have you found yourself in?
Live long and prosper
Once the largest city in the north of England, Manchester was hit hard by the Hellgates. It's population dropped by a quarter overnight during one particularly cataclysmic demon surge three years ago, and many thousands more were injured. The Manchester hospitals struggled to cope, and in the aftermath of the chaos they decided to dedicate their city to medicine and medical research. Taking on the best healers in the country and throwing all their resources into making their hospital the best it could possibly be, Manchester now prides itself on being the healthiest city in the UK. Instances of disease and infection are lower here than anywhere else and injuries are treated much easier and with much better results. It does come at a price, however…
Attached to the hospital is a major research facility. In this facility they are constantly searching for new cures and treatments for the diseases plaguing the living as well as looking for biological ways to deal with the demonic menaces. When a person dies in Manchester their body is taken on the same day to the research facility to be tested on, no exceptions. If someone takes ill with an unusual sickness, they too are sent to the research labs. Many who enter this building as a 'patient' never leave. It is a building feared by most, and with apparent good reason, but it does get results.
A large number of the cities residents work in the hospital or attached research facility, but other labours also thrive here. There are many builders and skilled craftsmen, as well as a booming underground trade network. It is a city full of healers and whores, architects and black market traders, all going about their business under the shadow of the hospital.
Better the devil you know
If the refugees from the south fear being assigned to one city more so than any other, that city is Liverpool. The city on the Mersey shore has never been hit especially hard by Hellgate openings, and that could perhaps be why the rulers of the city have such an interest in demonspawn. Just outside the city centre on the banks of the river Mersey, there is a research facility of staggering size. Set up not long after the first UK Hellgate opening, the research centre studies demons and their kind up close and personal. They hire a number of 'hunters', skilled soldiers whose job it is to hunt down demons, capture them and bring them back to the centre for study.
There are occasional accidents of course, sometimes a demon will manage to escape, but the hunters are usually able to track them down before they can cause too much chaos. However, the number of missing persons has been slowly increasing in Liverpool over the past few years and no one as yet has been able to provide a solid explanation for the disappearances. People go missing from their beds or off the streets, never to be seen again.
Liverpool is home to the brightest of scientific researchers, those able to study the Hellspawn housed in the research facility and discover more about them. It is also home to the largest sex industry in the UK and has a thriving black market. Its clinic is the most advanced outside of Manchester, and those who cannot afford the costs of being treated in the healing capital often risk the journey to Liverpool in search of a cure for their ills.
We will fight, or we will fall
'Subtle' has never been a word that could easily be applied to Birmingham, and that rings truer now than it ever has done before. The Bull Ring research centre was created in order to craft weapons capable of destroying demons and their ilk, and hopefully to one day find a way of destroying the Hellgates themselves. They have no real interest in alchemy or magic, they just seem to take a thrill in making weapons that cause the most amount of damage possible to hellspawn, whether this be with new gun designs or water canons of monumental size.
The fighters and guards trained in the Bull Ring are the most well equipped and able in the country, if not the world. They are always in high demand and sometimes they are used as trading pieces when the city leaders are bartering for supplies from another city. At age thirteen all boys are taken for basic training, which lasts two years. Those that show aptitude are taken on for further training to become fighters or guards. Few live to see their twentieth birthday. Males and females who show good mental ability are brought into the Bull Ring as researchers or technicians.
Outside the Bull Ring life in Birmingham is fairly quiet. It has a busy port of trading and a large goods market that is active most days and the residents not taken into the Bull Ring can live in the knowledge that they are safer than most in other cities thanks to their advanced guards.
The land is ours. We will keep it ours
Carlisle is the most rural of the cities in the grouping, and it is immensely proud of that fact. Disease and contagion spread like wildfire in the overcrowded underground cities, but in the countryside they find it harder to take hold on the population. Sure being overground could create more of an issue with Hellspawn attacks, but very few of them travel so far out from the main cities anyway. Carlisle is home to a vast number of sprawling farms and supplies most of the food for the grouped cities, but not all is as idyllic as it seems on the surface.
The people who run Carlisle believe that the most important thing is to keep the human population going, and that nothing is more important than producing food supplies and procreating. Those who live to see their eighteenth birthday are immediately paired up with someone of the opposite sex and are expected to have at least one child every two years. Homosexuality is strictly outlawed. Punishment for any crime is always having to work the fields (Hellspawn are more able to attack on the farmland than they are in the town). The other cities also send a lot of their criminals to Carlisle to serve sentences tending the crops of the farmland.
To the law abiding citizens Carlisle can be a haven, as long as they can cope with the breeding arrangements and almost medieval style of living. The clinic is the most basic in the grouping and offers mainly herbal remedies, but its isolation makes demon attacks rare and open air living is much more pleasant than the underground that most other people are forced to endure.
To protect and serve
Cardiff in Wales is one of the two cities that joined the grouping six months ago. Located on the banks of the sea, Cardiff believes that the best defence is a superb defence. Tired of spending so long seeing people being killed in their thousands, Cardiff set itself up to find ways to provide effective defence from Hellspawn not just for the city, but for the individuals. They have been able to produce shields that are coated in water and ice, as well as fire-resistant building materials and a wide variety of other lines of defence.
Bayside Defences does keep a few Hellspawn in their possession for testing on and they have a few highly trained guards that patrol the centre, a gift from Birmingham after the centre supplied them with advanced armour for their elite guards. Cardiff's connections with the other cities in the grouping are loose ones, and they tend to prefer to keep their barriers up as much as possible in order to reduce the risk of wandering demons or spies passing into their city. If it was possible for a city to be paranoid, Cardiff certainly would be.
The defence development centre keeps a large number of the cities residents in work, but there is plenty of opportunity for others to find work here. The city has only recently joined the grouping and so many traders are setting up new supply routes, and fishermen are able to farm the sea safe away from the demons that cannot enter the water. There is also a small but steady sex trade in the city and the clinic is always looking for new help.
Do you believe in magic?
Scotland has always been described as a truly magical country, and Edinburgh even more so than the other cities. Home of the Sighthill Tower, Edinburgh is the centre of magical learning in the UK. The Tower takes on all those with magical abilities and helps train them, perfecting their skills through practice and dedicated learning. The graduates from Sighthill are highly in demand throughout the rest of the country, and most easily find work in their field of expertise. They make very valuable trading tools for the city.
Life in Sighthill can be hard, with long hours of training and often cruel and unusual techniques used to draw out the maximum potential from the students. They are kept safe and looked after while they are in the confines of the tower though, so they do not have to worry about where the next meal is coming from or just what monsters are hiding in the shadows of their bedrooms… well, not very often anyway.
The residents of Edinburgh are safe in the knowledge that they have a band of magic casters watching over them, but that does come with its own drawbacks. When the students are learning many of the spells are unpredictable, and sometimes chaos does accidentally rain down on the city. Then of course there is the risk of unsavoury magic types using Sighthill to perfect their dark skills. The rest of the time life is fairly mild, not many stray demons are found in Scotland due to the mostly unpleasant weather and so many people spend longer periods of time above ground than they do in the other cities. Trading routes are being set up with the other cities in the grouping, and life outside Sighthill is a lot calmer and smoother than it is in many of the other cities.
Where are your Gods now?
Located on the other side of every Hellgate, there is Hell. The stories were wrong. Hell is not made up of barren wastelands and burning pits of fire as far as they eye can see. The air is hotter than any oven and the ground often licked with flames, but it is actually lush and filled with a staggering variety of lifeforms, many of which are peaceful and harmless. This is the birth home of all demons and other Hellspawn, and the place where they all start out their lives. Many never leave their fiery home, and fewer still chose to stay on the material plane of Earth. It is far too cold and damp for their liking.
The Circle Palace is the centre of Hellish activity, a vast place within which the mightiest of the demon lords reside. Many demons are kept as slaves here, and it is the place where captured humans are often brought to feed the lords that rule over hell. Other demon castes can visit and some make homes in the lesser rooms of the vast palace, but the lords are finicky and prone to devouring lesser demons as snacks. The Domes make up the homes for most of the intelligent demons.
There is much about the land on the burning side of the Gates that not even the demons themselves know. None are aware of the monstrous creatures that lurk beneath the surface of the Red Ocean or of the beings that claim the frozen tundra as their own haven.

The text written in the image is a quote about Imam husayn(PBUH) by Imam khomeini:
"Imam Husayn (PBUH) revived Islam by his blood"
Read more from Imam Khomeini about Ashura and Imam Husayn at Ashura uprising
Islam was on the verge of disappearing within the throat of the tyrants and justice being crushed under the stampede of evildoers. The cruel rule of Yazid and his men was about to cross the shining face of Islam away by a red line and the agonies and troubles suffered by the great Prophet of Islam (s) and the early-day Muslims as well as the blood of the self-sacrificing martyrs, were about to be forgotten and gone to the winds.
It was at this point that Imam Husayn (PBUH) set out on the great Ashura uprising. The Master of Martyrs rose to strengthen Islam, to oppose cruelty, and to stand up against the empire of those days that were beyond the scope of modern day empires.

Nostalgia and Novelty.
The year was 1981. In January of that year, I had only recently turned four. That's when video games became a blip on my radar. By that point, there was Pac-Man and other noteworthy gaming franchises being born...
...including a goofy, pudgy man in red overalls who jumped over barrels. His name was obviously Mario. His brother Luigi showed up in a later arcade game in 1983, then the two of them rescued a princess from a spike-shelled ox-kappa demon hybrid in 1985; making gaming history.
I grew up with the Plumber. My oldest nephew was using an NES controller as a teething ring. That's how far back my history (and my money) goes with Nintendo and its stable of game companies.
That's the main reason I'm really annoyed with them sometimes: signing on to SOPA--given the glut of FREE ADVERTISING gamers have given them over the decades, they really ought to cut their fans some slack. (IP piracy sucks, but the media companies are trying to swat flies with sledgehammers. Government/corporate fiat over the Internet is not the answer.) That, and their NoA arm doesn't think that Last Story will sell. (I mean, it's only a brand-new RPG from the creator of Final Fantasy. It'll never sell...?)
Having said that, you know what irritates me even more? Nintendo detractors. Aside from the ones pointing out legitimate stupid dick moves Nintendo's made over the past three decades (Nintendo's a corporation; dick moves are inevitable...), they mostly gripe about being "sick of Mario, Zelda, and Kirby"; they want to see something new from Nintendo.
Never mind that if they've lost interest in Nintendo's output, they likely already have Sony and Microsoft products to amuse them; why do they grouse on games they don't even play anymore?
I understand that nostalgia junkies are a problem for the gaming medium, but so are novelty junkies: those who crave "new ideas" for novelty's sake--the hell with whether the new property is any good or worth a gamer's money.
Mario is overplayed, overhyped, and overdone. All true. The problem detractors of the good Mr. Jumpman have: 92% of his games are very, very good, and well-executed. The other 8% are third-party horseshit with a Mario license, like Mario's Early Years.
You ask "What about Mario is Missing?", dear reader? Ah. The SNES version has a decent soundtrack, uses actual SMW sprites, and stars Luigi. The only problem with MiM is that the enemies are no threat to Luigi--that was annoying.
Brand-name recognition means something, especially when the product actually is high-quality.

this third photo is of flat freddy as my boys call it,
not keen on these they are a lot of work for not a nice finish toy lol,
it will be a nice little gift for a little one as its safe with no buttons, sharp edges etc.
Thanks for stopping by today,
my youngest slipped down the stairs this morning and got a lovely bruise just under his bottom,
and is shook up so not at school this morning,
so might not get any crafting done today.

Industry Voices
Technology has been a meaningful driver of the current dynamic between inflation and the bond market. The internet, in particular, is changing the way economic health should be measured and, accordingly, the way investors position themselves.
Our classic monetary metrics are doing a poor job of evaluating the health of the economy, as the digital economy is very hard to measure in monetary terms. Technology has created significant increases in utility absent any real inflationary uptick. In fact, it can be argued that much of the technological development to date — and even on the horizon — is deflationary. This is likely to continue as the next big wave of innovation, the blockchain, strives to eliminate middlemen in many areas of the economy. This mismatch between the metrics and what is really going on in the economy could be causing central bankers to keep their feet on the gas longer than needed.
Technological innovation might cause inflation expectations to be permanently lower. Further, advancements in technology might mean traditional measurements of economic health also need to advance and evolve, particularly monetary aggregates. Modern economic theory is based on the idea that money is the ultimate measure of economic activity. Compensation, trade, commerce and investments are all measured in monetary terms. What if one could create a store of wealth that is different from money, as is occurring with cryptocurrencies? Initially our economies were based on bartering, then we used tokens resembling coins, later gold and then paper currency backed by gold. Then, in 1971, we finished the process of unlinking our paper currency to gold. For decades we have accepted the value of simply paper currency. Why couldn't data encryption also become a store of value? After all, if enough people agree that data encryption has value as a medium of exchange (not unlike paper currency) then it becomes a currency. The challenge for central bankers is that their classic economic tools are unlikely to measure this potentially momentous change until it is very far along in the process of adoption. Therefore, the current policy prescription of low interest rates may be misdirected.
It is unlikely that the central bankers of today, most of whom are classically trained economists, will publicly lead a change in thinking. But they do appear to be concerned with the asset price "bubble" and might choose to allow real interest rates to rise without seeing the classic measures of inflation rise. Comments from November's Federal Open Market Committee meeting indicate that although labor markets continue to strengthen and economic activity appears solid, inflation remains contained at less than 2%. The FOMC Statement noted near-term risks to the economic outlook appear "roughly balanced" but that the committee expects that gradual increases in the fed funds rate are likely.
Investment implications
There will always be value to be found in the markets but, thanks to years of easy liquidity, most credit and equity instruments are now rich by historical measures. Investors need to be scrupulous to find opportunities that can perform well while withstanding a potential period of stress brought about by an eventual change in risk perception. Investors would be wise to consider a number of factors and ideas:
- Focused stock picking and credit selection should — in the intermediate term — do much better than the broad indexes whose performance is agnostic to fundamental valuation.
- Historical cross asset correlations might have changed, and equity and bond performance so far in 2017 represents to many a conundrum. Further, the U.S. dollar reflects that the U.S., once the model of stability given the steadfastness of our leadership, is now a source of global instability. We should prepare for a prolonged period of dollar weakness despite the actions of the Federal Reserve. If this is the case, many of the quantitative macro models that rely on consistency in cross asset class behavior could be challenged. Also relative value strategies that trade across asset classes will be more difficult to assess, and focus should thus be on those within asset classes.
- We are on the doorstep of a reduction in the Fed's balance sheet and the European Central Bank is starting to reduce its quantitative easing activity (although any moves likely will be measured and well telegraphed). Acknowledgment by central banks that new forces in the economy are dampening inflation readings might lead to the realization that higher yields are necessary to inject a dose of reality about risk into the markets. With the end to QE unfolding, the liquidity tailwind could quickly become a headwind for asset prices, putting pressure on equity and credit prices (particularly investments yield-chasers have flocked to despite weak underlying fundamentals).
- Index strategies are concerning in that they are agnostic to valuation. The more overpriced an asset becomes, the bigger its share of the index, and the more the investment strategy that follows the index must own of the overvalued asset. Such a pattern can easily reverse itself if active investors decide to sell overvalued assets en masse. Therefore, passive index strategies might be hard to beat in good times but active management is likely to prevail when the cycle moderates or turns.
- Finally, exchange-traded funds have given apparent liquidity to a sector of the market in which the underlying assets are not that liquid. Of particular concern are credit ETFs that focus on high-yield bonds and loans. Should the economy cycle downward, and investors decide to shed credit risk, the selling of these ETFs will quickly test the limited liquidity of the corporate bond market.
The time is ripe to shift portfolios to become more "all-weather" and to balance risk. For the months ahead, we believe a neutral weighting (at best) is appropriate for credit strategies with a beta tilt and equity strategies with a lot of beta. We are becoming a wealthier society given our increased technological utility but one with low inflation due to the Amazon, iPad and, potentially, blockchain effects.
The transition from the classic approach to monetary policy to a more "new age" approach will clearly take time. Most of our central bankers are well-versed in classic economic theory and might be resistant to changing their traditional approaches. Furthermore, the outgoing Fed governors are unlikely to make any near term changes leaving measurement of "iPad iNflation" to a new Fed leadership. Technology will continue to change the inflation and utility outlook. Monetary policy must soon adapt to this "internet of stocks and bonds" or risk stoking greater asset bubbles to deal with in the future.

The Downtown Revitalization Project in Hawley is considered a blessing but it has been a nightmare for at least one business owner.
The Downtown Revitalization Project in Hawley is considered a blessing but it has been a nightmare for at least one business owner.
The $825,000 project began the first week in October and has had some delays due to changes to deal with stormwater on the streets and off the roofs of two buildings and an unexpected former vault.
By November 20, crews had completed only portions of the first block, from the Fallsport Steakhouse to the Hawley Diner, and were discussing how much farther they could go before winter halted the project until spring.
Steve Smith, owner of the Fallsport Steakhouse at the corner of Main Ave. and Church St., says the long delays and mismanagement of the project have cost him a lot off business, while other business owners have said that while the construction on the east side of Main Ave. has hurt business, the losses are minimal compared to the gains that they expect when it is completed or the loss of business for other reasons such as the economic downturn.
The project started in front of the Fallsport when the sidewalks and curbs were removed from there down to the Hawley Diner's driveway. Crews did not work on Oct. 4 during Hawley's Harvest Hoedown and even filled in the sidewalk area so shoppers could approach the businesses there during the event.
The work moved on after that weekend and soon everything up to the front of the Diner was opened as well as the sidewalks from Keystone St. (the Diner and PNC Bank) down to The Trading Post, Whatknot's. That was where one of the stormwater problems cropped up and caused a few weeks in delays.
Smith said his business was down 20 to 25 percent just from the project. He said the economy affects some of the business on Main Ave., but not his because his customers are retired.
He said he worried about the smaller businesses in the workzone. He said he thought some would be forced to close due to the loss of business.
"Eight weeks to do 150 yards, it's appalling," Smith said, pointing out there are no lights in front of his building to help customers safely find their way through the construction maze.
He said he worried about the delay and possible increases in the costs, something that already hit the project between the awarding of the first grants and the final approval of the plans.
Louis Beck, co-owner of Whatknot's, agreed the construction has hurt business, but said he lost more due to the economic downturn. People are using what money they have to purchase essentials and not as many magazines, candy, knickknacks and other things he sells.
The additional losses from customers who do not make the trek through the construction hurts, he said, but he expects that pain to go away when project is completed next year.
Beck was ecstatic about the project as a whole. "I'm happy with it. It's going to be great," he said. He noted the delay for the stormwater line would solve a problem that has existed for years in his block.
"It hurts," he said of the construction, "But I'm looking at the long term."
Beck said the workers from Leeward have been going out of their way to help people through the work areas to the business. He said they moved equipment and even offered an arm to help some ladies over the uneven ground.
"They are more than gracious," he said of the Leeward workers. "I'll tell you that is appreciated."
The way Leeward's workers have treated potential customers was appreciated in other businesses as well. Jean Lawlor, manager of The Other Shop II, said the workers have been very helpful in aiding customers struggling to get to the shop. She added the workers have even opened a couple of bottles for the women who work at the shop, which is run by members of the Wayne Memorial Hospital Auxiliary.
The Other Shop II, which remains open all year, has taken a hit as far as business is concerned. Yawlor said business was off a bit, but added she expected the end results of the project to make up for it.
"We're gonna complain, but we'll love it when its done," she added. She said the new sidewalks will be wonderful. She explained customers won't have to walk over broken stones to get to the stores, which sells gently used items and helps raise money for the Wayne Memorial Hospital.
China House Chinese Restaurant saw its lunch business go down, but Fang Chen said the end result looked nice.
Other businesses The News Eagle contacted did not responded by presstime Thursday.
Plans for the project did not include stormwater drains causing some of the delay. The area from PNC to Whatknot's has always had stormwater pooling there. Both PNC and Whatknot's have had problems with water in the basements.
Work stopped as Hawley Borough and Leeward Construction, the contractor on the project, met with PennDOT to not only plan a solution but also find a way to pay for it, explained Council Member Mary Sanders, who has been coordinating the project since the Borough applied for the grants to pay for it.
Sanders said the other issues included changes to move a stormwater catch basin by the Fallsport as well.
She noted they also found what they thought were window wells at the Fallsport, only to discover one was actually a tunnel which appeared to run under Main Ave. toward Teeters Furniture. While the tunnel was filled sometime in the past, PennDOT and the Borough had to determine if the fill was good enough to leave it in place or if it had to be excavated for more suitable materials. In the end, Leeward was given the green light to leave the fill in place and continue with the work.
Both PNC and The Fallsport had roof drains which had to be relocated. PNC's drain emptied under the sidewalk, while the Fallsport had to unhook its roof drain from the sewer line and reconnect it to the stormwater lines, something that added costs to the property owner.
Sanders said while the delay in construction, which came mostly from the stormwater problems near PNC, was bad enough to hurt businesses, the unexpected storm that hit allowed water to enter the PNC Bank building due to the construction.
Sanders said there have been concerns about the effects on businesses, especially with the economy as it is. But overall the majority of the businesses effected so far have given her positive feedback.
She noted a representative of PNC Bank told her that at every property where streetscape projects like this have been completed, business improved for the Bank.
"We have to look at tomorrow and what (the project) will bring to Hawley," said Mayor Ann Morgan.
"We all expected this," she said of the interruption to business.
Things are beginning to get back on track. Leeward finished the stormwater work and has since finished the curbs and poured the bulbouts at the Fallsport, Hawley Diner and PNC Bank. Workers were laying the bluestone at the Fallsport Wednesday and said they hoped to have that section completed by this weekend.
Kevin Hawk, Council member and an employee for Leeward, said they decided to complete the remaining block on the east side of Main Ave. He said they had discussed finishing to Whatknot's and leaving the rest, but finally agreed to complete the block.

Atrial premature complexes are also called premature atrial contractions (PACs) and may cause heart palpitations or unusual awareness of your heartbeats. Palpitations may be heartbeats that are extra fast, extra slow, or irregularly timed. PACs occur when a beat of your heart occurs early in the heart cycle or prematurely.
PACs result in a feeling that the heart has skipped a beat, or that your heartbeat has briefly paused. Sometimes, PACs occur and you can't feel them.
Premature beats are common, and usually harmless. Rarely, PACs may indicate a serious heart condition such as life-threatening arrhythmias.
When a premature beat occurs in the upper chambers of your heart, it is known as an atrial complex or contraction. Premature beats can also occur in the lower chambers of your heart.
These are known as ventricular complexes. Causes and symptoms of both types of premature beats are similar.
Symptoms of PACs
Most often, patients with PACs complain of palpitations. However, rather than reporting sustained racing heartbeat, they usually describe "missing" or "skipping" of the heartbeat.
Some patients even feel that the heart has "stopped" while others describe a sensation of "flip-flop."
This is due to the fact that the PAC comes too early (prematurely) in the cardiac cycle to have resulted in an effective pulse or heartbeat.
Therefore, no heartbeat is felt until the next regularly-timed heartbeat occurs after a pause (so-called compensatory pause).
Incidentally, the beat after the PAC usually occurs with stronger contraction than usual and can be associated with an urge to cough.
Symptoms of PACs are virtually indistinguishable from those of PVCs as the physiological effects are identical.
What Causes Atrial Premature Complexes?
Your sinus node is an area of cells in the upper-right chamber of your heart. It controls the pace of your heartbeat through electrical signals.
Sometimes, signals from the ventricles (blood pumping chambers) cause a heartbeat that comes earlier than the natural, normal rhythm.
This is followed by a pause, and then a stronger second beat because the pause allows more time for blood to fill the heart chamber.
The cause of a premature beat is generally unknown. Most people who have PACs do not have heart disease (CardiacHealth).
Any of the following can cause premature beats to occur more frequently, making you more likely to notice them:
- caffeine consumption
- alcohol consumption
- stress
- fatigue or poor sleep
- medication that lists irregular heartbeat as a side effect (such as Dostinex, Requip, Wellbutrin, Xanax, Depakane, Advair, and more)
PACs could mean you have extra connections in your heart's electrical system. These extra connections may cause your heart to occasionally beat irregularly.
Although this may be frightening or annoying, it is usually not dangerous unless you experience premature beats often, or they impact the quality of your life (CincinnatiChildren's).
Sometimes, premature beats may be caused by an injury to your heart or underlying heart disease.
If you suddenly begin to experience skipping heartbeats, or if your heart feels different in any way, you should have your doctor examine you to rule out an underlying problem.
Underlying Conditions and Atrial Premature Complexes
Sometimes PACs can be a symptom of a more serious condition. If you notice your heart skipping beats, racing, or pounding in combination with any of these symptoms, seek prompt medical care.
You may have any of the following conditions:
- dangerous arrhythmias that may lead to stroke or heart failure
- heart disease, which may include infection, genetic defects, and narrow or blocked blood vessels
- hypertension (high blood pressure)
- the valve separating the upper chambers of your heart from the bottom chambers does not properly close
- ventricular tachycardia, a disorder that causes a rapid heart rate and may lead to heart attacks
If you experience premature beats occasionally without any other symptoms, the beats are probably not dangerous.
You should, however, seek treatment any time you notice a sensation in your heart that is new and has not been previously discussed with your doctor.
Diagnosing the Cause of Atrial Premature Complexes
Your doctor will probably first ask you some questions if you experience sensations of skipping, racing, or pounding heartbeats.
He or she may ask you what you were doing when you first noticed the symptoms. He or she will also likely ask about your medical history.
Indicators of heart disease, such as diabetes, high cholesterol, high blood pressure, being overweight, smoking, and having a family history of heart disease may warrant a more thorough exam, even if PACs are not accompanied by any other symptoms.
Your doctor will conduct a physical exam to detect indicators of underlying problems with the heart, and to monitor the function of your heart.
Procedures may include listening to your heartbeat, running blood tests to check your chemistry and cholesterol levels, and testing your blood pressure.
Your doctor will monitor your heart rate if your exam suggests you may have an underlying problem with your heart that is triggering PACs.
The pattern of disturbances can help your doctor understand what is causing them. This can be done with an electrocardiogram (a test that records the electrical activity of your heart, either during normal activity or during exercise).
You may also be instructed to wear a monitor for 24 to 48 hours or when symptoms occur. This monitor is worn under your clothing and records your heart rhythms as you go about your normal activities (MedlinePlus).
Consequences of PACs
The great majority of PACs are completely benign and require little if any treatment at all.
As mentioned above, in rare cases, PACs may be the only sign of underlying heart conditions and these should be ruled out with appropriate evaluations. However, PACs may change into
- Atrial Flutter
- Atrial Fibrillation
- Supraventricular tachycardia
Treatment of PACs
As most PACs are benign, treatment is optional and is usually geared toward alleviation of symptoms. Medications such as beta blockers or calcium blockers are often used but with mixed result.
Most important treatment, after ruling out severe underlying heart conditions, is patient reassurance and teaching of various coping mechanisms.
Preventing Atrial Premature Complexes
You can prevent benign (harmless) premature beats by avoiding substances such as recreational drugs, tobacco, alcohol, and caffeine (MayoClinic).
Also, try to practice cardiovascular exercise on a regular basis. Anxiety contributes to PACs, so reduce your stress levels, or discuss anti-anxiety medication with your doctor.
If you see a medical provider who is not familiar with your history, let him or her know to prescribe medications that are not likely to increase PACs.

Christ in you - His Kingdom in the world
23/11/17 11:57
Cheryl worked hard for the Lord. Yet she experienced little fruit, enjoyed a minimum of discernment and rotated round and around the mulberry bush of her self-imposed performance orientation.
Jesus appeared to her one day and she asked him what it was that so successfully stymied her ability to release the water of life freely.
Placing His arm around her Jesus said, 'Sheryl, you are concentrating on demonstrating your love for me. You will receive the desires of your heart when you become totally absorbed in my love for you and live from there.'
'But Lord, she replied. 'Don't I need to be your servant?' Smiling, Jesus replied,
'You need to receive my love more than you need to serve. Only when you live in me and my love, can you serve in a manner that releases my life. All else is just effort.
Cheryl was an effervescent personality, a natural extrovert and non-conformist. She lived to be human and to express the uniqueness of her personality. She thirsted for life. Yet when the only way of living life to the max, through life in the Spirit of Jesus was presented, she would draw back.
'How do I be true to myself?' she enquired of Jesus, looking into His eyes. Jesus' eyes met hers and radiated a depth of love she had never seen before.
'When you are dead to you, you become alive to me,' He said. 'Your spirit will soar when you eat me, because I will be your life. None who do not live in the Spirit can be their true selves or be fully human and alive. Self effort, kindness to others, charity work do not make you alive. Only I do that. Only when you are not can you be. When I am your life you are yourself and wholly authenticated to minister to others in the power of My Spirit.'

Fads. They seem like such a good idea, at least at the time. Then the years roll by and we look back and wonder, "what the hell were we thinking?"
A few weeks ago when I was out looking at houses in San Francisco I came across a house being sold as a total fixer that had the remnants of an old central vacuum system. As you can see from the picture above, the manufacturer is Sequoia central vacuums, and believe it or not the company is still around! Even more amazing – they're a local company with headquarters down in Menlo Park.
I'll admit I've always had a fascination with vacuum cleaners. Don't ask me why, I can't explain it. True story – when I was just a wee boy of 3 or 4 years old, I got separated from my parents at the mall. They were completely freaked out, but found me staring at the window display of the vacuum store. Let's try not to read too much into this, okay? Thanks!
The pitch behind central vacuums was that they were lightweight and more efficient, allowing the ladies of the house to keep it sparking clean without having to over-exert their delicate natures. Oh the sexism, how it still burns decades later!
Clearly the ladies weren't impressed with this claim because although the fad of central vacuum systems seems to recur about every 20 years or so, the idea never really sticks. I've never lived in a home with a central vacuum (oh, the deprivation I've suffered) so I have no idea how well they actually work, but I have a very hard time imagining that they can come anywhere close to the power of a Dyson.
But regardless of if it actually works or not, how cool would it be to have an R2D2 looking vacuum cleaner?

Occupational Therapy
Interest in the field of Occupational Therapy (OT) has increased in our science departments over the past few years, with our graduates going on to several programs in the region. According to the American Occupational Therapy Association, occupational therapists "help people across the lifespan participate in the things they want and need to do through the therapeutic use of everyday activities (occupations). Common occupational therapy interventions include helping children with disabilities to participate fully in school and social situations, helping people recovering from injury to regain skills, and providing supports for older adults experiencing physical and cognitive changes."
The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics estimates a 29% increase in OT positions between 2012 and 2022 with a median pay in 2012 of $75,400. Their data show that "about half of occupational therapists work in offices of occupational therapy or in hospitals. Others work in schools, nursing homes, physicians' offices, and home health services."
OT programs are typically 2-3 years in length and can result in either a Masters or Doctoral degree, preparing you to take the national certification exam for state licensure.
Some programs require the GRE while others do not depending on your GPA. Programs typically require a certain number of shadowing/volunteer hours in an OT setting.
See information on other professional health programs on the Health related professional schools page.

Hi, nice game and congratulations ! Simple mechanics that still offered a decent amount of challenge.We're realizing a video with several games of the Ludum Dare #36. We made the same thing at the previous jam.
Can you add your game on indiexpo.net ? (it's free)
So we can include also your game in the video ;)
p.s. write #LDJAM in the game's description. (you can already find several games from the jam there)
Thank you very much for your feedback. We are glad you enjoyed the game. Atm we are not interested in adding our game to your portal. We really want to keep it just for the ludum dare site. Thanks for your interest.
Wow, that was really good! The graphics are beautiful and the portaling mechanic came as a very nice surprise. It was a bit tricky to use though, since entering a portal you usually don't exit in the direction you needed to. The platforming feels a little rough around the edges and could use a little smoothing, but it gets the job done.
I also like the music and sounds quite a bit, great job overall!
You must sign in to comment.
Mini Submission FAQ
TEAMS: Teams entering the Jam should pick a single representative to submit your game, or create a team specific account you can share. We currently do not support Team Voting, but sharing an account and together playing and rating games is acceptable.
CAN I ENTER BOTH EVENTS?: You should pick 1 event, whichever you think it'll do better in. If the idea is strong, and everything plays well enough, you can go Compo. If you're a perfectionist, and would prefer people to play a more polished game, do the Jam. Many solo participants enter the Jam.
If you made 2 games, unfortunately, the website doesn't support multiple submissions per user. To submit your 2nd game, you will have to make a 2nd account. Only do this if you made 2 games. Alternatively, if one game is better than the other, then consider just entering the better game.
CAN I KEEP WORKING UNTIL THE DEADLINE?: Yes! Immediately after the 48 or 72 hours, we do something called Submission Hour. As the name suggests, it's an extra hour for you to package, upload, and submit your games. If there were catastrophic issues trying submitting your game, or you misunderstood how submissions work, that's okay. It happens. We're flexible. If you need advice, check with the folks on IRC. If you need an admin, get in touch.
CAN I KEEP WORKING ON MY GAME?: Oh definitely! You should! But for the sake of judging, keep the Compo or Jam version around. You can include a link to the Post-Compo/Post-Jam version of your game on your games page, but sure your main links are the original version.
PORTS: Ports to other platforms can be done after the deadline. That said, the sooner you finish your port, the sooner people can play your game, improving your chances of placing in the final results. For best results, provide a Web version of your game, or a Windows version with no dependencies. Also be sure to rate at least 20 games to improve your visibility (Coolness).
MY GAME CRASHES, IS UNBEATABLE, OR I MADE A TYPO: We allow you to fix crashes, win condition, or tiny bugs after the deadline. In a sense, this is like "porting" to support more players. We leave this open to interpretation, but generally speaking your game should be identical to the game you submitted. No new features, just fixing mistakes you should have caught had you been better rested.
MY GAME DOESN'T SHOW UP: If you can't find your game, it's usually because the URL to your downloads are missing 'http://'. Fix your URLs (http://mysite.com/mygame.zip) and you will show up. Alternatively, if you just posted it, wait a minute. The cache may not have refreshed yet.
NOT LOGGED IN?: If you get a message about not being logged in, even though you are, it's because your web browser cached the non-logged in page. You can fix this by either refreshing your cache or clearing your cache. CTRL+F5 in many browsers. Chrome is a bit more work. Press F12 to enable Developer Mode, then you can right click on the refresh button and select "Empty Cache and Hard Reload". This option is unavailable if you are not in Developer Mode.
