I guess there will be two dates for Prince fans to always count on the corporations to release new music. The month of his death, and the month of his birthday. How tasteful!
What seems now to be the rule and not the exception since the Purple One's death, for whatever reason "The Vault" seems to be where they are getting the "new" music from. By new I'm not talking about fully finished songs, but demos. "The Vault" held all kinds of Prince media whether audio or visual, analogue, cassettes to digital, finished videos and other things that never saw the light of day while he was living. I think he preferred it this way, especially with the demos or songs he would sometimes throw in there that weren't finished, but thought maybe at a later time he could use it for something, or he could always go back and finish when and if he felt like.
Two very big problems seem to continually exist with the posthumous releases. One, there have been a lot of complaints about noises(hisses) in regards to the albums that contain largely demo (not fully engineered and final versions of songs) or unfinished tracks. The reason for this is both age, and the fact a lot was damaged in physically moving the vault from Minnesota to Los Angeles. Again I will never ever, understand that move as the vault was specifically designed for it's housing in Minnesota, and to just move something that large, cross country without damaging anything that could be altered or warped by weather etc. seemed like a very big gamble in everything remaining in the same condition it was.
Outside of the problematic treatment of the media from the vault, is the continual release and promotion of songs that are literally just demos, and the repackaging of albums that have already been released but thematically and/or artistically things being passed off as "limited" or "collectors items" just because Sony (a.k.a.Legacy Records) patented a specific purple color they seem to like to use on every vinyl they have released or re-released posthumously. As big of a fan as I may be, I have been less than thrilled with the choices the various companies, business heads and estate has been making as far as what they are choosing to release, and when they are releasing it and have voted with my dollar by not spending it on anything that has been released or in some cases re-released. For the collectors out there honestly. at this point if you have an extensive bootleg collection, especially spanning his entire career most likely you have at the very minimum better audio quality, with the exception of the Purple Rain re-release that was overseen and engineered by the man himself.
"Piano and a Microphone 1983" met with complaints of audio quality and that it sounded no better than already circulating bootlegs of songs from that era in the Prince Bootleg Market. This next release on his birthday (worldwide June 21st) Will be titled "Originals". No I am not joking, this is what the suits thought would be a good idea to release, specifically on his birthday month.
Like "Piano and a Microphone 1983", "Originals" is another collection of demos, being packaged and sold under the guise of new music, when it is literally demos of songs that Prince recorded, wrote, produced etc. that eventually went to other artists Paisley Park affiliated or not. Streaming wise, Tidal seems to have first dibs and a exclusive two week window to stream the music before it's physically released and able to be streamed on other platforms. The album will be released both on Cd and Vinyl. Track listing is below, along with who the song was later actually recorded by in parantheses.
1. "Sex Shooter" (Apollonia 6)
2. "Jungle Love" (The Time)
3. "Manic Monday" (The Bangles)
4. "Noon Rendezvous" (Sheila E.)
5. "Make-Up" (Vanity 6)
6. "100 MPH" (Mazarati)
7. "You're My Love" (Kenny Rogers)
8. "Holly Rock" (Sheila E.)
9. "Baby, You're a Trip" (Jill Jones)
10. "The Glamorous Life" (Sheila E.)
11. "Gigolos Get Lonely Too" (The Time)
12. "Love… Thy Will Be Done" (Martika)
13. "Dear Michaelangelo" (Sheila E.)
14. "Wouldn't You Love to Love Me?" (Taja Sevelle)
15. "Nothing Compares 2 U" (The Family)
I haven't found the artwork for the album as of yet, despite my very low expectations because of essentially the fumbling of all his posthumously released works outside of the Prince Purple Rain deluxe/remaster that he was alive to oversee and control, all of this looks to me as a poorly executed cash grab by people more worried about squeezing every last possible cent out of "The Vault" and his estate and saying to hell with taste and what Prince's Legacy Vinyl and otherwise deserve. While Prince hated that his music was so widely bootlegged, at least the fans were able to artistically mirror, or actually produce bootlegs that audio quality, and even in visual quality in a lot of cases, that seem to surpass the posthumous releases, despite all the money and material the corporations have at their disposal.

It's a tough problem to create a nuanced and believable setting in a game that's really just a series of multiplayer maps and objectives.
Edward Stern has his work cut out for him. The lead writer of Brink was certainly excited to work on Splash Damage's first original IP - having previously created Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory and Doom 3 - but it was more difficult for him to develop a story without a defined protagonist. The Lead Writer title is a bit of a misnomer, as he is the only writer on the team, but Stern had the significant challenge of pulling players into the new intellectual property without heavy-handed exposition. That's especially difficult with a game that focuses heavily on multiplayer and coop, without a separate single player "story mode" - a gametype dubbed "crossplayer." When Brink comes out May 17th on PC, Xbox 360 and PS3, players will create their avatar and be able to jump into any mission with their friends or solo on the fly. But with such gameplay, Stern was still able to craft a coherent story by using the environment.
"It's just better when players pull information [out of the game] rather than the game pushing it at them," Stern told me at PAX East 2011. "We can render environments really well, but it's really hard to do convincing characters."
The story of Brink is that a huge floating island designed to be a self-sustaining refuge for the fabulously rich is flooded with refugees when the seas rise in 2045. The Ark cannot sustain so much population, and tensions are rising between the original inhabitants and the "guests" - a sort of slur describing the poor newcomers. The technology for these "sea steddings" exists now, and it's a perfect setting for a first-person shooter because of the isolated environment.
"We wanted it to be real," Stern said. "We didn't want [Brink] to be too far in the future ... because that turns into sci-fi and that turns into magic. We'd lose that sense of immersion, that's what shooters are good at. That feeling of, 'Oh my god. That guy is shooting at me.'"
The Ark becomes the main character in Brink, and the players can participate in 8 different maps or scenarios for each faction - the Resistance or Security - and get a sense of a continuing story. But there is no good or bad guys on the Ark as it teeters on the brink of full on civil war. Stern gave a great example how one mission can be viewed completely differently, depending on which faction you are playing.
"If you play the Security storyline, we've got credible intel that there is a bio-weapon lab. So you go, 'That's what that map is about,'" Stern said. "You play that [same map] from the Resistance side and they say, 'They're stealing our vaccine.'" Once you realize that vaccines are made from viruses, which could be used as bio-weapons, a simple mission suddenly has a lot of grey area morality that will hopefully engage players.
Another way that the writing filters into a multiplayer game is through art design. The Ark was meant to be self-sustaining, but in the areas that are overpopulated with Guests, the metal has been allowed to corrode. Red colored environments denote poor or Resistance areas, where as pristine white coral is the color of the rich and powerful.
Taking a cue from games like BioShock, Stern has written audiologs that will populate your dossier - an in-game database - that will unlock as you earn XP. These logs will provide the inner thoughts of the leaders of the two factions, Captain Mokoena, leader of Security forces, and Brother Chen from the Resistance. "It's a total game-ism," Stern said of audiologs. "But's it's just too handy." Unlike other games, Stern felt that playing the audiologs over play was too disconcerting in a multiplayer game, so instead they are accessible as a reward from the menu screens.
But will there be a climax? Will players feel like they've accomplished something after they play through all 16 missions from both factions? "Once you play eight missions from the first faction, there will be a end of campaign movie that will ask you, 'Do you want to see the other side of it?'" Stern said. "Then once you finish the second eight missions, there will be an outro cinematic that will resolve or conclude the story."
Brink attempts to break new ground by offering a story within a game that is built completely on multiplayer. It's hard to tell if playing one mission cooperatively, or against other players, will work and if the narrative will feel coherent once the game is out, but at least it seems like Stern and the Brink team is trying something new and interesting.
Hopefully, this new angle on storytelling will dovetail nicely with the innovations made in shooter gameplay that the game offers as well. Check out my impressions of playing the multiplayer of Brink hands-on.

The day finishes at 3.50 p.m. for Early Years and Primary and at 4.00 p.m. for Secondary. There are a wide variety of extra-curricular activities on offer each day after school.
We think it is important that you, as parents, are aware of how your children spend their day at the British School of Málaga.

John Lewis has unveiled its £7 million Christmas campaign featuring a young boy and his penguin friend Monty in what is widely considered to be one of the major advertising events of the year.
The full 120-second ad follows Sam and Monty over a year of friendship, before the boy realises that his penguin is sad and longing for a companion.
Happily, Christmas morning sees Sam surprising Monty with the gift of a new penguin friend named Mabel, accompanied by the John Lennon track Real Love performed by Tom Odell and the strapline Give Someone The Christmas They've Been Dreaming Of.
Monty's Christmas is the seventh John Lewis advert directed by Dougal Wilson and features CGI technology to ensure Monty and Mabel look and behave exactly like real Adelie penguins.
It cost £1 million to make and is part of the retailer's overall £7 million Christmas campaign.
A John Lewis spokeswoman said while it was difficult to quantify the significance of the Christmas campaign, 'the fact that we invest so much is an indication of how significant it is'.
The ad launches on the retailer's social media channels today (November 6) and will screen on television tomorrow during the first advert break in Gogglebox on Channel 4.
It follows a teaser campaign using #MontyThePenguin and is accompanied by an extensive range of merchandise ordered in larger quantities after last year's The Bear And The Hare toys sold out.
Stores will push the message within spaces called Monty's Den, which feature 'technology firsts' such as Monty's Magical Toy Machine and Monty's Goggles that use Microsoft technology and Google Cardboard to allow children to enter a virtual world and interact with the characters.
Merchandise includes a children's book called Monty's Christmas, of which a proportion of the proceeds will go to Barnardo's, stuffed toys, an umbrella and pyjamas. The retailer's increasingly epic campaigns have included last year's The Bear And The Hare, of which details were drip fed to the public ahead of it sending Twitter alight on its full release.
It went on to become the retailer's most popular campaign, surpassing 2011's The Long Wait about a boy counting down the days to Christmas so that he could give his parents a present which attracted more than 5.2 million views on YouTube.

By Reggie Connell/Managing Editor of The Apopka Voice
During the City Commission Report portion of the Apopka City Council meeting, Commissioner Alexander Smith made a proposal that The Apopka Voice called for and endorses fully.
"I would like to propose that the City Council take steps to name a street after former Commissioner Bill Arrowsmith and after former Commissioner Billy Dean," Smith said.
Apopka Mayor Bryan Nelson was in agreement.
"Let's find out the process from the county. I know it's an arduous one," he said. "And I'm fully in support of your thoughts and I think appropriately so. I think we just need to get the wheels started. One of the things I ask is… they both live in Errol and Rock Springs. Is there something we could do in the new development in Errol Estate? Possibly a new road named after them. I'm open for anything. Someone mentioned the road near Alonzo Williams Park. Can someone reach out to them (Arrowsmith and Dean)?"
"I know Commissioner Dean would like to have Central Avenue changed to Billy Dean Avenue and Commissioner Arrowsmith hasn't gotten back to me yet, said Smith."
"Okay, let's put that in motion," said Nelson.
In a two-part series published in February 2018, The Apopka Voice proposed that the community take a positive, proactive move to change the name of Forest Avenue to Billie Dean Avenue.
In many ways, Dean's life and his emergence in Apopka politics run concurrent to the story of this historic road. Both Dean and his family weathered the racial tensions of previous eras. Like Forest Avenue, he has an iconic stature in Apopka.
Dean also has a lifetime of service to this community, and like the West Orange Trail Bridge that crosses 441 alongside Forest Avenue, he too was able to bridge the communities of Apopka – both north and south.
In April, Dean watched as Alexander Smith was sworn-in to Seat #1… a seat that he has occupied for three decades. Dean will begin the next chapter in his life after rising to vice mayor of the second largest municipality in Orange County, after becoming the undisputed champion of South Apopka, and after re-writing a family history that was nearly erased in the 1920s.
It's not enough to send this man into retirement with a warm "thank you for your service," and a party. He is the last of a legacy of longstanding incumbents, and these giants of Apopka politics are not to be forgotten. They are to be revered and remembered timelessly. Dean is a legend who replaced a legend (Alonzo Williams) on the Apopka City Council.
Now Apopka should replace the name of Forest Avenue with Billie Dean Avenue.
Arrowsmith too is an iconic figure in Apopka politics who worked with legendary Mayor John Land on the City Council for nearly 40 years and helped guide the growth that saw Apopka go from a small town on the outskirts of Central Florida to a booming city both in population and economic development. The Apopka Voice wholeheartedly endorses the proposal that a prominent Apopka road be named in honor of Arrowsmith's longstanding commitment to public service in the community.

28-year-old singer and songwriter Rebecca Ferguson welcomed her new born and third child Arabella last month. Rebecca Ferguson has opened up exclusively to Hello! about the betrayal she faced when the father of her newborn daughter, Arabella, decided to leave after he discovered she was pregnant – and confessed how he had another girlfriend.
Rebecca, a former X Factor star, is already mum to Lillie May, 9, and Karl Jnr, 7 , from a previous relationship with Karl Dures, had kept her heartbreak a secret but has now spoken about the pain.
'I was fuming when I found out, I was so angry. The way I was treated was wrong,' she added. 'I think some people think you're devastated because you want the man, but it's not that.
'It's devastating for a woman because it's a normal thing for your child to be wanted.'
The 28-year-old singer also went on to reveal how the father of her other two children now wants to treat new addition Arabella as his own and has offered to adopt her.
'Karl has been a huge support, we're really good friends. He was there for the birth and he has offered to adopt her and be her dad too,' she explained.
'He has given her his name, which is lovely, so she will be the same as the other kids.'
Rebecca announced she was pregnant with her third child in April after she dramatically collapsed during a performance on Loose Women weeks before.
Speaking to MailOnline, she said: 'What's funny is after the show, I took a test because I was thinking 'This is weird! What's going on with my body?' and it came up negative.'
'I was like How strange! I've got all of the pregnancy symptoms but after the show I ended up spending two days resting in bed.'
She added: 'I kept on saying to everyone, I've got pregnancy symptoms so it was really weird and then a couple of days later I took another test and it was positive!'
Rebecca announced the surprise pregnancy to Twitter followers on April 13 with the message: 'Yes I am having a new lovely baby. Children are such a blessing and I'm grateful to God for my new little gift xx.'

The 2008 ASDCA NATIONAL SPECIALTY
After being out of the show ring since February 2008, Moose traveled to Atlanta, Georgia, in September 2008 to defend his 2007 Best In Specialty Show title. It was an amazing show, with a high number of actual working dogs entered, making it a true test for Honorable Judges Carl Vitner (sweepstakes Judge) and Dorothy Collier (judge for regular classes). Alaturka had two dogs from its line do very well.
AWARD OF MERIT went to BISS CH Eiserntor AA Mustafa of Turkay (aka "Moose"). While Moose did not repeat his Breed Win a second year in a row, Linda and I are still very proud of this amazing boy!! Not many dogs can come right out of the pasture and still stand out in a show ring. With the competition that showed up at this show, we were thrilled the judge still saw Moose's special qualities.
BEST PUPPY IN SWEEPS went to TILSIMLI'S FLASH FLOOD (aka "Kedi"), a puppy bitch sired by CH Horizon's Zafer (aka "Rocky") out of CH Alaturka Tilsimli Taksirata (aka "Sira" - bred by me in 2004). She is owned by Lindsay Zirkel & Jamie Beaver and bred by Jamie Beaver. I look for great things from this little girl in the future.
BEST VETERAN DOG & BEST STUD DOG went to CH Kandira's Encore (aka "Ernie" -- Moose's Sire & Kedi's Grandsire) owned by Debi Grunnah of Island Farm. Ernie is a spectacular dog that I fell in love with the first time I saw him at the 1999 ASDCA National Specialty when he was just 18mo old. I knew then that there would be few dogs that would stand out like Ernie does.
All in all the National Specialty show surpassed all our expectations. I was overjoyed to see Anatolian folk I had not seen for many many years ... it was a real treat to sit around and swap dog stories and catch up on each others doings over the years. I really miss these get togethers and talking with old friends. I cannot wait until next time!!

I was tempted to. I transitioned over to optics per new CMP rules. There were 2 of us service rifle shooters. Both of us used 4x power optics. Almost everyone shooting around us had higher mag optics. We couldn't see the scoring rings at all. I just cut the silhouette in half and placed the dot COM. I think I came in last. But in relation to other shooters the 2 of us shot with no rest other than a sling and glove. I was going in confident that I could keep up with those shooting a rest and higher mag scopes but I'm still struggling a bit shooting with an optic. head position, taking too long to break the shot etc.
Great match I had a lot of fun and learned a lot. Thank you to all who volunteered to make it happen.
I didn't know you where there... What were you shooting? Should have said hi.
Same here. I believe you may have been in a different relay. I was trying to spy all the bolt guns. Lol. I was shooting in relay 2 @ 38Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Lashes Lift
Love the look of long lushes lashes? Make your natural eyelashes appear longer and darker without the use of pricey and time-consuming eyelash extensions.
What is a lash lift?
A lash lift is a safe and easy way to temporarily curl lashes. Think of it as a perm for your natural eyelashes (but without the chemicals). Your Master Aesthetician will uplift and curl your natural lashes at the base, making them stand out and look longer. The procedure takes about 45 to 60 minutes. Lash lifts are often paired with a tint to enhance the defining effects. Say goodbye to your mascara!
How long will the Lift Last?
Your luscious lifted lashes that will last for weeks. Your professionally lifted lashes be retained for typically 6 to 8 weeks.
Is there any Maintenance?
Lash lifts are gloriously low maintenance! Care is pretty simple. Don't get your lashes wet or apply anything at all to them for 24 hours. Steer clear of waterproof mascara the entire life of your Lift. Brush out the lashes daily. That's it. Swim, shower and play with no fuss!

Last week I was beyond excited to get one of my pieces published on a new US website, The Conversation. It's a piece I wrote about my relationship with my legs, how my body image has evolved since my accident and how I deal with uncomfortable feelings thrown up by being a disabled woman.
The Conversation is a brilliant new network set up by Amanda de Cadenet, it originated as a website for guests to contribute personal experiences to share with the readers and this week it also launched as a an interview series on TV in the US, The Conversation with Amanda de Cadenet. It features interviews with great women such as Jane Fonda, Gwyneth Paltrow, Zoe Saldana and Sarah Silverman all discussing what it means to be female in 2012 among many other personal issues.
It's a great place for diverse, interesting and inspiring women to share their stories, just as I did in the piece below. As I said, I'm really delighted to have been featured amongst such great contributors on the site so you'll have to excuse the blatant self promotion!

The Santa Ana City Council Tuesday night approved a community development block grant budget that includes very little for the nonprofit sector — the traditional recipient of such revenue — with nearly all the money going instead to city services.
The allocation shows that while Santa Ana has pulled through the darkest moments of a historic budget crisis and even built a healthy reserve fund, the city's finances are still in recovery mode.
For years, Santa Ana used money from the decades-old federal program to fund nonprofit community services in this widely underserved city. Some 50 organizations at one point received the funds, Councilwoman Michele Martinez said in 2010.
However, revenues at all levels of government dropped dramatically during the Great Recession, and Santa Ana was hit harder than most cities. With few choices before them, city officials decided to divert the grant funds to city services, such as code enforcement and street repairs.
It's the same story this year. Police Department services, youth training, legal services, park and street improvements, code enforcement, a new business pilot program and housing rehab will receive the majority of the $5.5 million in revenue.
Only one nonprofit, the Fair Housing Council of Orange County, which ensures equal opportunities for access to housing, will receive funds from the grant — $67,517, according to council agenda documents.
The grant fund allocations have been a contentious issue between city staff and some council members. Last year, the tension bubbled over at a City Council meeting, with council members Martinez and Sal Tinajero angry because they were only informed of the requested budget allocation shortly before the council was scheduled to approve it.
"Every year for whatever reason something happens and staff overlooks this," Martinez said at Tuesday's council meeting, adding that "for the record," nonprofits will receive a percentage of the grant funds next year.
The agenda staff report also makes that clear. Up to 10 percent of the funds will be eligible for nonprofit funding in the 2014-15 fiscal year, according to the report. City officials said the maximum nonprofit funding cap under the grant is 15 percent.
It wasn't all frustration. Martinez said the grant budget includes more than $1 million for Pacific Electric Park, which will mean new open space for the park-poor city.
"This is something we truly value, and I know our community has asked for in the past," Martinez said. "I'm excited about that item."

New Apple patent application looks to bring mixtapes to Apple Music
You may one day be able to send a crush a personalized mixtape with Apple Music.
Apple filed a patent application with the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) Thursday for a new feature in Apple Music which would allow users to gift "personalized albums" to one another, as reported by Business Insider.
Note that mixtapes in this context refer to the compilation tapes and CDs people (used to) gift to one another, not the quasi-albums hip hop artists frequently release.
Mixtapes like these are one of the most deeply personal gifts someone can give, Rob Sheffield, Rolling Stone editor, said in his book Love Is A Mix Tape:
"The times you lived through, the people you shared those times with — nothing brings it all to life like an old mix tape. It does a better job of storing up memories than actual brain tissue can do. Every mix tape tells a story. Put them together, and they can add up to the story of a life."
Apple's patent application notes that this personal connection has been somewhat lost in the move to a digital world for music consumption. The new feature would allow users to send mixed-media "personalized" albums as a gift, complete with an accompanying note.
Users can even specify if they want the full track-list revealed to the receiver upon receipt, or if they want it to remain hidden until each track is played, just like on an old cassette.
Seeing as its only a patent application, it's unclear if mixtapes will become a feature of Apple Music or iTunes, but it's not too far removed from some of the features its already offering. Apple surprised everyone with its live, human-curated radio station Beats 1, which has since proven to be one of its best received features.
Mixtapes seem to take a similar approach to Beats 1 in repackaging an old format for the modern era.
Interestingly, the patent application says the the sender "can be charged a fee for gifting the personalized album," but not that they will be charged. One would have to imagine that if the sender and recipient were both Apple Music subscribers, there would be no charges incurred.
You might be wondering "how is this any different from just sharing playlists?" In reality, it isn't. Apple seems to be placing more emphasis on the gesture of gifting over simply sharing music, which isn't functionally different, but feels different.
Apple Vice President Eddy Cue told Mashable in June that offering users a more personal connection to music is what sets Apple Music apart from its competitors.
Mixtapes wouldn't be a make-or-break feature of Apple Music, but small features like this will add value to the service as a whole.
Who knows? Maybe Apple will help you woo a crush.

There are few places where mobility has shaped identity as widely as the American West, but some locations and populations sit at its major crossroads, maintaining control over place and mobility, labor and race. In Collisions at the Crossroads, Genevieve Carpio argues that mobility, both permission to move freely and prohibitions on movement, helped shape racial formation in the eastern suburbs of Los Angeles and the Inland Empire throughout the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. By examining policies and forces as different as historical societies, Indian boarding schools, bicycle ordinances, immigration policy, incarceration, traffic checkpoints, and Route 66 heritage, she shows how local authorities constructed a racial hierarchy by allowing some people to move freely while placing limits on the mobility of others. Highlighting the ways people of color have negotiated their place within these systems, Carpio reveals a compelling and perceptive analysis of spatial mobility through physical movement and residence.

Tiger's nest is like a secret monastery, which stayed in oblivion, waiting to be discovered. The photo below shows the Paro Monastery from the beginning of trek. Can you spot the Tiger's Nest here?
Spot the nest!
Tiger's nest is a name given to "Paro Taktsang" monastery. The story behind the name is fascinating. "Paro Taktsang Monastery" was built by Gyalse Tenzin Rabgye in 1692. Rabgye was believed to be the reincarnation of Guru Rinpoche (Padmasambhava).
According to a legend, Guru Rinpoche flew to this monastery in Paro, by riding a tigress. He meditated for 3 months here and conquered evil spirits. Imagine a tigress flying with a divine Guru riding it!The story gives you chills!
The first glimpse of the Paro monastery is magical! When you spot the Tiger's nest for the first time, you consider reaching it next to impossible. The trek might be strenuous for 1st timers. However, it is not very difficult.
First glimpse of the Paro Monastery
You can choose to ride instead of trekking
We left Paro city early in the morning. We started the trek around 9 AM to reach before 1 PM. If you plan to explore the interiors of this magical monastery, you have to reach there before 1 PM. The lunch break between 1 PM to 2 PM may keep you waiting. Also, while returning, you may find the descend difficult as the sun is about to set.
After we started the trek, we found ourselves passing through woods and rocks. It was as like being an explorer in search of treasure. We discovered many shortcuts on the way. This made the trek more exciting. However, some shortcuts were way more difficult than imagined and we had to retreat back to the original trek.

Upon arriving at Kells, half the party seeks out the tavern, and Corpus Constructus, whose only conversation to strangers at this point has been HAVE YOU ANY WANDS OR SCROLLS? is delighted to find his dream come true, there is an actual storefront named Wands and Scrolls. The local merchant reveals wonderful prices and has a deep, dark secret — he is a fellow necromantic construct! The party has not made much money by this point in the story, so Corpus has to take a rain check for now. A green grocer in the farmlands offers a reward for clearing out a beach cave, which the party discovers is infested by crab people, who are feasting on an unknown body.
Fighting crab-man and magma mephits is decidedly too much for Bastine, Leon, Corpus and they determine to call it a night, meeting back up with Glenn, Kraw and Gwydgen at The Blue Cross Tavern. Glenn recruits two beautiful eastern 'entertainers', Esmeranta and Reena, to his retinue and Leon inadvertently smacks the tavern owner in the face with the corpse of his son and is promptly asked to leave.
The party returns at full strength to brave the rest of the cave and to find a mishap underground between the Deathbot necromancer merchant and a portal that had opened up and was leaking oozes. In a rather dramatic gauntlet of battles between the party and Black Puddings, Glenn's rapier began corroding. Sweet talking the necromancer, who was already grateful for the help with his summoning problems, got Glenn a fancy new Brightsaber (A rapier that glows white on command, +1 to hit), he also offered several free scrolls to Corpus, who was absolutely thrilled.
The party met up with a Bearded Devil who appeared to be trapped in a magical set of runes. The party tried negotiating a withdrawal, but a failed compulsion from Corpus led to a fight between the party, the Bearded Devil, and who was trying to trick the party to step into a trap but the party wasn't falling for it.
Upon returning to town the mayor announces that the Brandons have been slain and his brother will be taking up the mantle as lord of the land. The new lord gives a speech, and the crowd disperses. The party has been encouraged to head west out of town towards the beacon when they're done in town. Miscellaneous goings on in town include an old lady who has some shocking news, as well as some shockingly delicious brownies. Gardernstern, the immortal merchant, hocks his wares from atop the wagon in town.
Knight Valleen waits outside the broken cathedral and advises that they'd like to bring it back to its former glory, but that will be a large job. No one has stepped foot since it was ruined by necromancers 200 years ago, whatever evil was contained and likely died out.

The beautiful San Fernando Valley, a circle of cities to the northwest of the Los Angeles basin, is home to almost 2 million people. While there are many dental offices in this region, our convenient location in Pasadena makes it easy for you to upgrade your dental experience with advanced care and a superior outlook on your health without having to travel far.
We are the "great dentist" many people are searching for. We specialize in gentle, pain-free dental services that include full-spectrum general, cosmetic and periodontal services.
But why choose Pasadena Smile Center over another dentist in San Fernando Valley? Our difference is that we practice holistic dentistry. We see our patients as whole physical systems, not just a set of teeth. Infections, toxins and underlying decay can have an enormous impact on your health. Our goal is to provide the long-term effects bio-friendly dentistry has on the body.
The Pasadena Smile Center Difference
We practice conservatism and as low impact a procedure as possible in maintaining your healthy smile. We go to great lengths to ensure all materials are safe and every service delivered gently and painlessly.
- Mercury fillings. We believe the toxicity risk and the fact that mercury fillings create a weakening pressure on the tooth makes them an undesirable substance to put in a mouth. Instead we use tooth-colored composite fillings with excellent bio-compatibility.
- Biocompatibility of materials. We have onsite test equipment to test materials for physical reactions they may cause. We use only what your body will accept in our fillings, materials for bridges, crowns and many other procedures.
- Root canal alternative. Our holistic technology offers what we believe is a safer and more natural option: MTA vital pulp therapy. Why lose a natural tooth when you can keep it? Mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) pulp therapy is clinically safer and shown in trials to be healthier that traditional root canals.
- Dr. Niloufar Molayem is a leading authority on holistic dentistry and can offer an entire range of healthier solutions to your dental needs.
- Dr. Eric Cho is a highly regarded periodontist and implant specialist. Gum disease and missing teeth are treated by Dr. Cho in gentle and pain free procedures.
Our Services
Our goal is to help you maintain your healthy gums and teeth or to restore what disease or decay has taken away. We are highly skilled at enhancing your smile. We back this up with cutting-edge cosmetic, preventative and periodontal dentistry procedures and maintenance. Some of our many services include:
- Teeth Cleaning and personal prevention plans
- Teeth whitening, bonding, porcelain veneers
- Tooth replacement, fixed and removable bridges, dental implants
- Invisalign invisible teeth straightener
- Full spectrum periodontal services
- iTero Scanner
Dental Implants
Are you one of the countless people who has lost a tooth, several teeth, or a full set? There is no question that missing teeth impact every area of life, from the personal to the professional. Restoring lost teeth can be accomplished with modern dental implants – sturdy, long-lasting, and looking exactly like natural teeth.
How Do Tooth Implants Work?
Teeth can be lost due to decay, trauma, sports injuries, or other types of impacts. Once the root of the tooth is damaged, it must be extracted. To restore a fully functioning tooth, a dental implant can be placed – an artificial tooth root, imbedded firmly in the jawbone. Once the implant has been fully integrated and fused into the jawbone, the tooth restoration is placed on top, firmly and securely. You now have a perfectly functioning tooth that you care for exactly like your natural teeth, that typically lasts a lifetime with proper care.
Types of Implants
At Pasadena Smile Center, we offer tooth implant technology at its best. Whether you have lost one tooth, several teeth, or an entire set of teeth, you can avoid a bridge, partial bridge, or dentures with implants. Imagine the relief of having a beautiful, perfect smile, with every tooth in place!
We offer the following implants to our patients:
- Single Tooth Implant: If you have lost a single tooth, it can be restored with a sturdy implant that doesn't require special care – just brush and floss like a natural tooth.
- Multiple Tooth Implants: A sports injury, accident, fall, or extensive decay can lead to losing several teeth. If you are in this position, we invite you to speak with us about restoring lost teeth with implants.
- Full Set Restoration: Imagine being free of dentures, and able to eat everything you want, whenever you want. You can have a full set of teeth restored with dental implants. The implants are placed in your jaw, which are then integrated into the jawbone. A full set of natural-looking, beautiful teeth is then placed upon the implants and you are ready to enjoy life to the fullest with perfect teeth that are strong and long-lasting.
Teeth Whitening
Nothing is more attractive than a brilliant smile that lights up your face. Unfortunately, teeth get stained over time, especially if you enjoy coffee, tea, wine, or other dark colored drinks or foods. Over time, your teeth won't look white, no matter how often you brush, or what type of whitening toothpaste or strips you try. That's when a professional teeth whitening can restore the brilliance of your smile. We offer two types of teeth whitening processes at Pasadena Smile Center:
- In-Office Teeth Whitening: Ready to have super-white teeth in just an hour? There is no better way to get ready for a social event or look your best than to have an in-office teeth whitening. Your teeth can become up to nine shades white in just an hour.
- At Home Teeth Whitening: If you prefer to whiten your teeth comfortably at home, we offer a custom in-home whitening kit, made specifically to fit your teeth. The first step involves taking an impression of your teeth. From this impression, custom trays are created that will fit around your teeth just right. Simply add the whitening gel and sit back and relax for about 30 minutes every day, and watch your teeth become white and beautiful.
If you are unhappy with the appearance of your teeth and are considering braces, you deserve to discover whether Invisalign aligners will be appropriate. These aligners can resolve a wide range of dental issues, including:
- Gaps
- Crooked teeth
- Overlapping teeth
- Turned teeth
- Overbite
- Underbite
Invisible and Comfortable: Invisalign in the San Fernando Valley
At Pasadena Smile Center, we serve the entire San Fernando Valley with modern dental and orthodontic treatments, including Invisalign. These clear aligners are comfortable, removed to eat and drink, and virtually invisible when being worn. Your teeth are slowly moved into place as you move through the stages of the aligners – which are custom manufactured specifically for you.
Schedule a Consultation
Our aim is to give you a smile that can last a lifetime. We back up that goal with years of training in advanced holistic dentistry, cutting-edge equipment and a devotion to a gentle, pain free experience for each and every patient. Schedule a consultation today with arguably the best dentist San Fernando Valley has to offer.

Wooten's Walk-off Gives Tornados First Win Of 2018
Last updated 2/12/2018 at 1:34pm
After falling 2-0 in seven innings in the first game of the double-header, Brevard College beat William Peace 5-4 on a walk-off hit from freshman outfielder Jadon Wooten in the bottom of the ninth.
Brevard earned their first win of the season, and the loss dropped William Peace to 3-2.
The game entered the bottom of the ninth inning tied at 4, as Dayne Homesly and Tanner Revis were able to record base hits with two outs.
In his only hit of the game, Wooten delivered a base hit into shallow center field that was just out of the reach of the center fielder, which brought home Homesly fro...

Still basking in the glow of a tremendous performance on Saturday night fighting in her native country of Norway for the first time, #1 Pound-for-Pound Women's Fighter, Cecilia Braekhus, (29-0, 8 KO's) looked ahead to her future while celebrating the momentous occasion of her second round knockout of arch-rival Anne Sophie Mathis, (27-4-1, 23 KO's).
With the victory Braekhus retained her WBC/WBA/IBF/WBO and IBO Welterweight Titles.
Known as "The First Lady" of boxing, Breakhus worked diligently outside the ring with numerous Norwegian politicians over the last seven years to lift the ban on boxing the country had instituted in 1981.
"I've fought all over Europe but it was always my dream to fight in Norway, this is my home and it meant so much to me on Saturday to see the huge crowd and know how much it meant to so many people in this country, "said Braekhus. "The entire fight week truly exceeded my expectations, everywhere I went the response from fans and media was incredible."
"I have to give a special thanks to the Prime Minister of Norway, Erna Solberg, who has been so very supportive of my work and played a huge role towards lifting the ban in Norway that allowed me to fight here."
While over 10,000 fans packed the Oslo Spektrum, over a fourth of the four million people residing in Norway tuned in on TV3, marking it as the second highest program in the stations' history.
Said Tom Loeffler, Managing Director of K2 Promotions, "I've been to many boxing events, but this one stood out with the emotion from the fans for their national hero, finally getting to see her fight at home. It was a spectacular night in the arena and a spectacular performance in the ring."
Speaking about the second round knockout of Mathis who she decisioned four years ago, Breakhus stated, "I feel so much stronger training now with Johnathon Banks, after the first round he told me to go on the attack and my punches were too much for her."
"This is my third fight with Johnathon and I feel like a new boxer, he's really taken me to new levels."
About her future plans, Braekhus said, "Two things I want to do next year, fight in the United States and fight (UFC fighter) Cris Cyborg. She's been talking loudly about fighting me in a boxing match and I'm all for it. And the United States is a place I've wanted to fight for many years and want to make that happen in 2017 as well."
Among those in attendance on Saturday night in Norway was former heavyweight champion of the world, Wladimir Klitschko, "He told me I hit like a heavyweight," said Breakhus, "And I'm sure he would know."

Quarter of the population calls the police
Each year almost a quarter of the population over 18 calls the police. They do so for various reasons, such as theft, burglaries, violence, harassment, vandalism or traffic problems.
In total the police are called in about 4 million times a year.
Calls for police assistance
Most calls for general assistance
Most contacts, over 2.5 million a year, have to do with the general assistance tasks of the police. Over a quarter of these have to do with public order and safety, such as dealing with vandalism, noise nuisance, quarrels between neighbours, drunks and fire
One in five are appeals for general services. One in seven contacts is to report a theft or burglary, and one in twenty about a violent crime (of which someone else is the victim). A problem in traffic the cause is for one in six.
Calls for police assistance by reason, 2002
Police is often asked to come
In over half of the calls for general assistance the police are asked to come, which the police generally do. The police are on the spot within 15 minutes in over half of these appeals for general assistance.
In almost one quarter of the calls for assistance, the police check the situation on the spot. In one in five cases the police serve a summons, in one in six cases they give information or advice; in the same number of cases the police does nothing.
Calls for police assistance by police action, 2002
1.4 million calls from a crime victim
Apart from this, citizens call on the police about 1.4 million times because they have become the victim of a crime. In over half the cases this concerns theft.
When people report that they have been a crime victim they usually sign a document such as a report of the offence. This usually takes place after the victim, or someone else in the name of the victim, has come to the police station in person.
