When it comes to personalizing blankets and throws, nothing compares to the individuality of inscribing initials or even thoughtful messages onto their surfaces. In addition to inscribing words and phrases, you can also choose to include one-of-a-kind designs or embellish the fleece's surface with freehand drawings for extra flair. Though the process of writing on fleece is a simple one, it can lend a lot of originality to whatever article you are decorating, making such an item an ideal gift or even a fun decoration for yourself.
Things You'll Need
- Newspaper
- Paperweights
- Stencil
- Permanent marker
- Washable fabric paint
Video of the Day
Prewash your fleece before beginning. This helps to contract the fabric, giving you a smoother surface with which to work. It also helps clear away any factory chemicals lingering on the material's surface.
Lay your fleece on top of newspaper to keep the applied color from bleeding though the material and onto any surfaces below. Using paperweights, anchor the area on which you intend to write so the surface is as flat as possible. This will prevent excess movement later.
Place your stencil down onto the fleece and trace the first letter you wish to write. You may do this using either permanent marker or fabric paint. However, remember that permanent marker may require a second coat in order to appear dark enough on the fleece's surface.
Record your entire message using the medium of your choice and remove the stencil. Touch up any thin or uneven surfaces.
Allow the writing to dry for at least 24 hours before using the fleece. Do not wash the fabric again for at least three days.

From the producers of "Shaun of the Dead" and "Scott Pilgrim vs. the World" comes "Attack the Block," a fast funny, frightening action adventure movie that pits a teen gang against an invasion of savage alien monsters. It turns a London tower block into a fortress under siege, and a weapon wielding teenage thugs into heroes. It's inner city versus outer space.

Today: An essay about the modern relevance of H.P. Lovecraft, written by someone who is probably much better informed than I am!

Today: An essay about the modern relevance of H.P. Lovecraft, written by someone who is probably much better informed than I am!
–The Cultist
I'm not a game person.
I never was allowed to play video or computer games as a kid, so I don't really have the hand-eye coordination or basic know-how to do so as an adult. And for the most part, I'm fine with that.
But sometimes a game comes along that I'm just desperate to play, and when that happens, I make one of my more skilled friends play it for me while I watch over their shoulder.
I have very patient and wonderful friends.
The Rapture is Here And You Will Be Forcibly Removed From Your Home is one such game. Thankfully for them, it's only 20 minutes long.
Buzzfeed (yes, I did find this on Buzzfeed, and no, I am not ashamed of this fact) wrote up a pretty good piece on it. It's visually striking but simple. There's no real goals, nothing to do. It's an exploratory game, and the premise is simple. The world is ending in 20 minutes. You have 20 minutes in which to walk around, and do whatever it is one might want to do in the last 20 minutes of the world.
For my money, the stark beauty, the growing oppressiveness, and the feeling of hopelessness encapsulate the best aspects of Lovecraftian horror. I'd recommend it to anyone who loves the existential side of weird fiction. If you're all about the tentacled monstrosities and the protoplasmic jello…well, there's none of that here. But it's only a 20-minute commitment, so I feel comfortable recommending it anyway.
–The Cultist
P.S. Does anyone have any recommendations for weird horror games? I'd love to check them out, and by check them out, I mean holler directions, commentary, and expletives over my husband's shoulder as he makes his way through them.
When I was 9 or 10 years old, I read both The Andromeda Strain (purchased, if I recall correctly, at a book fair) and The Hot Zone (brought to a family reunion and abandoned by a unknown relative). Now, don't get me wrong: I was not a brilliant child. HUGE swathes of both books completely evaded me—I think I just unconsciously skipped over everything I didn't understand. But, to this day, I can't quite pry either book out of my brain:
The Andromeda Strain: A perturbed 10-year-old's summary
The Hot Zone: An increasingly terrified and despondent 10-year-old's summary
(Yes, during the Great U.S. Ebola Panic of 2014-15, my parents did congratulate me for being ahead of my time.)
So, this exposure (har!) had three major consequences:
I would define body horror rather loosely ("Anything that really squicks you out"), although I'm sure there are much better and much more formal definitions**. And, for reasons that may be at least somewhat obvious, I particularly like the horror of contagion. (If you want a fantastic example of this, check out The Best Horror of the Year Vol 2, edited by Ellen Datlow. It's an amazing anthology, and one of the first stories—and neither Google nor Amazon is particularly helping me out here with title or author—is a very modern take on the Masque of the Red Death in the most satisfying possible way.)
Initially, when I started to write this post, I didn't think that it would be possible to find good examples of body horror in Lovecraft's work. I could only think of the gray and brittle wasting of the farmer in "The Colour out of Space". But there are indeed some good examples if you broaden your definition beyond illness, and I may touch on these in a future post:
But on the whole, I'd say that these examples take a backseat to the cosmic, indifferent horror that plagued and intrigued Lovecraft to no end. But never fear, lovers of body horror—mythos writers have taken up the torch, and taken it up handily since the 1930's. Here are a couple of prime examples:
But in terms of contagion/disease horror, I can only think of a handful of mythos stories:
Even if you're not as disease-oriented as I am, I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this story, both for its detective-like story arc, as well as the sheer joy the enthusiastic narrator takes in the unusual biology of the Tibetan plains.
"[We arrived]…in the midst of the Summer Grass Festival, which celebrates the harvest of Cordyceps sinenis, the prized caterpillar fungus…Phupten led me several blocks to the café—and what a walk it was! Sidewalks covered with cordyceps! Thousands of them laid out to dry on tarps and blankets, the withered little hyphae-riddled worms with their dark fungal stalks outthrust like black mono-antennae, capped with tiny spores…never have I seen so many mushrooms in one place, let alone the rare cordyceps; never have I visited a culture where mushrooms were of such great ethnic and economic importance."
100% not made up, for the record: You can find tons of references to cordyceps on alternative health websites. You eat them. For your kidneys, apparently.
Let me know if you know of other examples of fear of disease in Lovecraftian works—I desperately want to read more!
–The Cultist
*Although, for completion's sake, I'd throw in the original "Violet Beauregarde turns into a gigantic blueberry" from the original Gene-Wilder-as-Willy-Wonka movie. To this day, I'm still faintly amazed they show that to children.
**"Horror fiction in which the horror is principally derived from the graphic destruction or degeneration of the body. Such works may deal with disease, decay, parasitism, mutilation, or mutation. Other types of body horror include unnatural movements, or the anatomically incorrect placement of limbs to create 'monsters' out of human body parts." Thank you, Wikipedia!
Scene 1: I learn of the existence of H.P. Lovecraft on my 15th birthday party. I am handed a package containing both Dreams of Terror and Death and The Road to Madness. They are a gift from my recently ex-boyfriend (with whom I am still desperately in love and grieving the tragic demise of our freshman romance). I raise an eyebrow, but thank him and try really hard not to read anything into it. (In the days that come, I read a lot into it.) As I fret and mope and occasionally sob into my pillow, I pick at the stories. I conclude the following:
Slowly but surely, I make my way. I read it all, even "The Dream Quest of Unknown Kadath", which (to my uneducated, plebian eyes) is Lovecraft writing Lovecraft fan fiction. A few months later, I borrow Bloodcurdling Tales of Horror and the Macabre from a friend. I read "The Picture in the House" while babysitting, which turns out to be a terrible mistake. I'm a wreck until I hear the dad's car entering the garage.
Scene 2-2.5: I am a sophomore in college when I celebrated H.P. Lovecraft's birthday. I still re-read Lovecraft. I have a new boyfriend who loves Lovecraft too. He has a DVD of short films based on Lovecraft stories, and let me watch them when I was sick with the worst cold I've ever had. Sitting amidst a pile of used Kleenex and cough drop wrappers, I was amazed. I was enthralled. I had never imagined that the ponderous, Victorian-sounding imagery and unbelievably pompous vocabulary could be translated into something so compelling, so viscerally gripping.
It's a year after we met. We'll break up in another year, but right now, it's Lovecraft's birthday. We walk to a local bookstore, me in the Miskatonic baseball cap he had bought me, him with a Cthulhu plushie in his shirt pocket. We eat ice cream in Lovecraft's honor and take our seats to listen to a reading. A professional story-teller will perform "The Colour out of Space".
A brief word about "Colour". In On Writing, Stephen King discusses the need to know your strengths as an author. He cited Lovecraft as an example: he avoided dialogue as much as possible, and you only need to read "The Colour out of Space" to understand why. Take, for instance, the freakin' half-page-long monologue from the dying, plagued farmer as proof: "…can't git away…draws ye…ye know summ'at's comin' but tain't no use…I seen it time an' agin senct Zenas was took…" Jesus fucking Christ.
I agree wholeheartedly with King's assessment, and I'm pissed that this story (of literally all of Lovecraft's stories) has been chosen. I mentally steel myself against snickering.
30 minutes later, I walk out of the bookstore, silent and amazed. A living voice had lent the story terror that I had never encountered before. How was it possible?
Scene 3: I am in graduate school. I am a biologist. I have a few books of Lovecraft mythos—I've learned something about the writers of Lovecraft's time, how he corresponded and encouraged them, and how they built off what he created. I find it endearing. I find it beautiful. I love to read a story about some imagined god, or cult, and then read another story building off the first. A correspondence that takes years, decades to create, free of competition or judgment. There is no plagiarism, there is only a shared desire to build.
It is, if I'm being honest and I'm in one of my more self-pitying moods, everything I had hoped science would be. And I'll spare you my thoughts on this, because if you wanted to read about how graduate school is terrible you would read one of the other thousand rant-laden blogs currently in existence. Suffice it to say: the creativity, the curiosity, the open sharing free of ego and judgment that I imagined…they're not there. Maybe they don't exist, maybe they never did. Or maybe I just got unlucky, or maybe I just have a bad attitude. Who knows. But Lovecraft fiction fills that void.
I take up running. I'm very slow. I have bad feet, I probably shouldn't be running, but it helps my mood, it makes me feel accomplished. I run a half-marathon. I fly with my husband to Seattle to run a full marathon. The day afterward, as I stagger around and imagine that this is what it feels like to be 90 (not truly sore, really, but stiff, oh my god so stiff, my muscles can't react to changes quickly, I stumble and flail and fall easily), we visit a huge bookstore. I make my way (as I do automatically, anymore) to the horror section, and oh my god. I have never seen such riches. I choose one. I choose another.
20 minutes later, I stumble to the register with a comically-large pile of Lovecraft books. The total comes to three digits. I don't even blink. My husband smiles but does not scold. I am tremendously grateful for this.
Conclusion: I now have a bookshelf of Lovecraft mythos. I'm always on the lookout for new additions. As I read more and more, my tastes are honed. I won't call them refined, because that suggests some level of expertise that I don't have. I'm not a Lovecraft devotee. I've never read any of his biographies, I've seen one documentary on his life that was available on Youtube. But I love these stories. I love to read them, to think about them, to wonder about what makes some amazing, what makes others fall flat. Even the ones I don't like draw my fascination, because why am I so irritated? This blog represents a distillation of these thoughts. I'm not a writer, but I hope other Lovecraft and mythos fans read this and respond…if only because I want in on that dialogue. I love this community. My hope is for this website to be a contribution, however paltry.

Fish 2009 - Shadows and Ghosts of Christmas past
Dear FishHeads, freaks, fans and the Company,
I'm finding the onslaught of Christmas quite frightening this year as it has appeared seemingly out of the blue!
As always Christmas cards are frantically being scrawled and with the Nearfest DVD arriving today (8th) it's all hands on board to get the packages on Santa's sleigh!
One package that arrived this week was Mark Wilkinson's new book, "Shadowplay".
And I have to say it's a highly impressive slab of artwork, beautifully assembled and presented in a way Mark is famed for.
Obviously I am well aware of the Marillion and Fish designs and had seen elements of what he had created outside our sphere over the years.
"Shadowplay" brings his artistic career together in one well defined curve and I sat with a coffee in front of the fire and read it from cover to cover immediately after opening it.
It's a fascinating book and even I was surprised at the extent of his imagery and the kaleidoscope of projects he has worked on over the years.
The Red Dwarf and Judge Dredd material I had seen snippets before, but gathered together it's an impressive collection.
I hadn't seen the Glyder sleeves nor the extended stamp designs so there were quite a few surprises! :-)
My favourite is the unused sleeve for Justin Hawkin's solo album after he left the Darkness.
Comical brief that is executed brilliantly! :-D
As well as the artwork, which is superbly printed in the book, there is Mark's commentary on all the projects and his own take on his career path over the years.
All in all it's a great book and great value for money overall.
If you're looking for a Christmas present for a Fishhead friend or for anyone who appreciates airbrushing and album artwork then "Shadowplay" is guaranteed to deliver the "brownie points". ;-)
On my home front the main "Peter pan" pond was finished at the weekend and I am waiting on the water to clear before I add the LED underwater lighting.
There are over 25 fish in there including a couple of bottom dwelling green tench and a pair of golden tench.
There was only one casualty in all the movement between the ponds (a long white tailed tetra I called "Ghost" and one of my favourites) but the additional population from my friend Jen means that the stocking levels are perfect for the new filters and the overall size of the pond.
I am now moving into the "Japanese garden" pond which, weather permitting, I will have sorted by the weekend.
The East Coast FM how has been fun putting together and although it's not as slick as the Planet Rock environment it's a laugh dealing with "community stories" and transmitting live has a different edge.
My voice is pretty ragged as some of you may have heard but news came through today that I am in the hospital on the 22nd of the month for the operation to sort everything out.
My throat sounds really painful but actually it isn't.
The scar tissue on my chords has built up rather like a callous and although not sore is making its presence felt.
I think I did far too much in the Summer before I was fully ready to return.
It feels as if I have a pea on my chords that keeps on instigating me to clear my throat. Thus the hoarseness.
It's frustrating, annoying, uncomfortable and sometimes depressing as any excessive talking wears my voice out very quickly.
It can all be sorted out with this operation which will "shave" the scar tissue from the chords and doesn't necessitate cutting into the chords as they did on the operation last year to remove the cyst.
It will be a quiet Christmas for me this year!
Apart from all that Life moves on and although it's pretty quiet on the music front plans are beginning to take shape for events later next year that will more than make up for this enforced silence just now. ;-)
Enjoy the memories on the Nearfest DVD ;-)
lots of love
Onkel Fish x

Easter, what a great time to have a holiday!
We've been off for the last 2 weeks and what have I done with the time...NOTHING!!!
This probably wasn't the best thing I could have done with my time but I just haven't been able to motivate myself into getting up before 1pm...lol
The deadline for changing my mind has passed and I'm now locked into going anywhere next year, well anywhere in Scotland that the GTC decide to send me (Providing I complete the course successfully!). It's a pretty scary thought, to up and leave everything and everyone behind. The week leading up to the deadline I had a worrying feeling about it but almost everyone I talked to about it said it was a great idea and that I should go, I'm unsure if they just want rid of me for the year or if they generally think it's a good idea...LOL.
So now I'm waiting to hear where I'm being sent before planning my summer. The GTC have said we'll be told by the 26th of May which is a pretty significant day, the end of placement 3, recall day 3 and it's the day assignment 3 is due...Talk about things happening at once!
Well if you'll excuse me I'm going to go back to doing nothing.
To look forward, don't beat a retreat

The Product:
A temporary tattoo is: a combination of a polypropylene protective
top sheet, non-toxic vegetable dyes, a paper backing and glue
similar to that which is used in a band-aid. The tattoo is applied
with water to clean, dry, reasonably hairless skin. After the
protective top layer is removed the tattoo is positioned correctly
on the skin. The specialty glue is released once water is applied
to the paper backing. After waiting 30-60 seconds the paper can
then be removed revealing a perfect image every time. Depending
on various conditions such as skin type, location, friction, and
application, the tattoo can last between 2 days and in rare situations
a month, but usually 7-12 days. Outlasting our competition, which
average 2-4 days, our tattoos are waterproof and are easily removable
with baby oil or rubbing alcohol.
The Prototype:
At Body Graphics we are never satisfied with status quo, for that
reason we are dedicated to improving our product. Although our
prototypes have surpassed most expectations, we have noticed some
production flaws. We have corrected the alignment of the pin striping,
added slots for the reference cards and generally enhanced the
construction. Pertaining to the tattoo packaging we have improved
the card stock of the header, enlarged the display peg opening
and addressed minor discrepancies in fit and finish. Finally the
slight color inconsistency has been corrected in the Love/Passion
The right choices for our clients:
Unlike previous temporary tattoo companies whose aims have been
ensuring their bottom line rather than the success of re-orders
and continued retail relationships. Body Graphics is aware that
certain items will sell better than others. We've focused
our attention on choosing the best selling designs for our clients
and have designed a re-order system which uses our marketing data
and your demographics to ensuring no one flounders in unwanted
stock. Although you are choosing from the best of the best in
our collection we know this system will ensure smooth sailing
throughout our business relationship.
Body Graphics International:
As part of Body Graphics expansion, we are relocating our head
office to Southern California with a grand opening scheduled for
mid 2006. All U.S. orders will be shipped and distributed from
the U.S. The Canadian office will remain open and retain shipping
and customer services centre for our Canadian customers needs.
This will effectively cover both coastal ports as well as giving
us distribution centers in the two major North American markets.
This expansion will also include an increased sales department
and will allow us to further increase our coverage and customer
We would like to take this opportunity to thank you for taking
the time to explore our product, and hope we can build a mutually
beneficial ongoing relationship. If you would like to contact
us further or have any questions please don't hesitate to
call us toll-free at 1-866-TMP-TATS (867-8287)
or locally at 519-898-9999 or e-mail firstname.lastname@example.com

Alumni News
Alumni: help change lives through Enactus
May 22, 2015
Every Wednesday at 6pm a classroom in Sheridan's Hazel McCallion Campus fills with the bustling of students gathering for a common cause. That common cause: to make the community we live in a better place economically, socially and environmentally through the spirit of entrepreneurial action. We are Enactus Sheridan and we want to connect with you!
The Enactus Sheridan family is a group of dedicated students, faculty advisers and business leaders within the community who are interested in growing a business, helping a charity or simply empowering people. We have helped the Mississauga's Farmer's Market save money and increased marketing for their produce. This year, through Sheridan College we have put together a financial literacy program aimed at helping international students understand Canada's financial landscape. We are able to connect with members of the community and industry professionals on a personal level so that we can really see the lasting impact we leave behind.
As students from a variety of business majors, we are looking for leaders who are interested in sharing their experiences and industry knowledge with us and being part of professional development workshops that we organize. Enactus Sheridan believes in creating opportunities through entrepreneurial spirit that will ultimately lead to improving people's lives. We would love to hear from you.

Redmine email notifications. Documentation vs Reality
You want setup email notifications for Redmine which run's under Debian Jessie. So, you going Aministration-Settings-Email notifications and see notification which says that you need go and edit /etc/redmine/<instance>/configuration.yml file. And you going into /etc/redmine and looking for your instance (default in most cases) and you can't find any configuration.yml
It's sad.
Let's fix it!
You can find file configuration.yml.example in the /usr/share/redmine/config/ directory (surprise!). According to documentation, you need copy and edit this file.
$ sudo cp /usr/share/redmine/config/configuration.yml.example /usr/share/redmine/config/configuration.yml
Next you need setup your email account, according to documentation - EmailConfiguration
Now let's make this configuration visible for your Redmine.
$ sudo ln -s /usr/share/redmine/config/configuration.yml /etc/redmine/default/configuration.yml
Let's restart Thin (in my case) and Nginx and check Aministration-Settings-Email notifications widget
Hope it will help you.

Posted on behalf of Professor Levente Kiss, Centre for Crop Health, Institute for Agriculture and the Environment, University of Southern Queensland
Prof. Kiss writes: As a newcomer in the Australian scientific community (I started to work here this year), I am deeply impressed by, and highly value, the Decadal initiative. During the past >25 years, I have been mainly interested in the biology, and taxonomy, of obligate biotrophic fungi, so I'll focus on this group below.
We'd like you to scan the horizon, and share what you see.
It is an 'easy' assumption that during the next years more and more DNA loci will be used for taxonomic purposes. In fungal taxonomy, these new, or already exploited loci may not be useful for the whole Kingdom, and could be lineage-specific, as already shown in some cases by Schoch et al. (2012). (If interested, see my commentary about this paper: Kiss 2012). By the way, the identification of phylogenetically / taxonomically relevant lineage-specific DNA markers could be a general trend in future taxonomic works, within each Kingdom. Also, it is likely that whole genome analyses will be more widely used in taxonomic works, although this approach will always be limited by availability of funds, no matter how inexpensive will sequencing become, and methodology constrains, as well.
One aspect, which, in my opinion, has sometimes been forgotten, or at least neglected, especially in fungal (and, more generally, in microbial) 'phylogeny only' taxonomic works, is that, after all, different taxa have to be recognized as entities held together through gene flow. In obligate biotrophic fungi, where neither growth nor asexual and sexual reproduction are possible without being structurally and nutritionally linked to the living host tissues, gene flow cannot be envisaged if the respective fungi do not share the same hosts. However, in some groups of such strictly host-associated fungi, current practice is to apply the same taxon name for organisms that are unable to meet, and recombine, in/on the same hosts due to their narrow host specializations, but share identical, or highly similar, DNA barcode sequences. It has long been highlighted that gene phylogenies should not regarded as species phylogenies (Doyle 1992); however, the DNA barcode approach, as a quick-and-dirty method, has often been used in describing, for example, strictly host-associated taxa without taking in consideration obvious constraints in gene flow.
Where would you like taxonomy and systematics to be in a decade?
In obligate biotrophic fungi, when it comes to the future of taxonomy, my prediction is that their experimentally revealed host range, and, thus, the detection of whether gene flow is at all possible within a newly recognized taxon, will be much more considered during species descriptions, and will become a basic requirement in this process, in addition to developing better phylogenies for different taxa. Personally, I don't think this approach can be skipped by whole genome analyses, as host specificity may be determined by a very small fraction of the genome, which may remain unrevealed when performing analyses of huge datasets.
achievements or programs would you like to see in place? What milestones would
you like us to pass?
I assume sequencing coupled with new DNA barcode developments, with direct taxonomic implications, will continue, and will always be fueled by the biotech sector. Specific taxonomic and/or biodiversity programmes (such as many more ABRS projects) focusing on those groups of organisms (in our case: fungi), which are challenging from a methodological point of view, and require specific approaches, in addition to the sequencing work, would lead to real breakthroughs in this field.
innovations in technology, infrastructure, funding or organisation will make a
big difference to your work and to our taxonomy and systematics?
I'd focus on the taxonomy of those groups of organisms (fungi) which are difficult to handle, due to their specific way of life (e.g., obligate biotrophs vs. free-living fungi). In taxonomy, personal expertise, special skills, are usually much more important than special infrastructure, therefore funding schemes should focus on key scientists and their students (i.e., salaries, fellowships), and should provide long-term support. In the USA, the NSF PEET scheme seems to be a great initiative to support taxonomic research, and especially training a new generation of taxonomists:

This was less a match than an incisive analysis of Lahore Qalandars' weakness. In an novice, unthinking batting show, Lahore whimpered to 119 against the Quetta Gladiators, who in flip felt no need to take any dangers, and waltzed to the goal with 9 wickets and 6 overs to spare. Quetta Gladiators beat Lahore Qalandars by 9 wkts. Lahore Qalandars: 119 for 9 in 20 overs (Sunil Narine 28, Brendon McCullum 30, Jofra Archer three for 23, Mohammad Nawaz 2 for four) Quetta Gladiators 120 for 1 in 14 overs. (Shane Watson 66, Asad Shafiq 38n.o) Man of the match: Mohammad Nawaz
Karachi Kings vs Lahore Qalandars-PSL 8th Match-Today Match Prediction
The Qalandars were put in to bat, and Brendon McCullum, opening with Sunil Narine, gave their side the best possible begin. Narine smashed Shane Watson for 24 runs in an over as Lahore raced to 45 within the first three overs. McCullum was timing the ball beautifully too, however as soon as Narine fell, Quetta's bowlers found a method to break in. The first 5 overs fetched 50, the next 15 fetched 59, and the hollowness of Lahore's center order was on full show but again.
Who Will Win The Toss Karachi Kings vs Lahore Qalandars:-Karachi Kings
Who Will Win The Match Karachi Kings vs Lahore Qalandars:-Karachi Kings
Watson was in devastating kind, and Asad Shafiq on the different finish was the proper foil to him. Even though the pair took no unnecessary dangers – just 41 have been scored in the first six – Watson was simply warming up. He took Narine for 21 runs within the seventh over, and from thereon Sarfraz Ahmed's males have been coasting. With scoreboard strain non-existent, Quetta performed as they needed. In the end, the straight drive that sealed the win was a merciful finish to a rotten day for Lahore.

|White was released from
custody when Mr. Falvey
decided not to press
we tried to look at the video. That portion of the video, which some had told us they saw live, was GONE!!
Then we asked the Board Clerk, the Chair Tofanelli and others to explain. Their explanation was that this attack took place after the Board went to lunch. NOT TRUE!! So why lie???
Probably edited the tape and lied to protect Tofanelli, who is the worst Calaveras Supervisor Chair ever, and who took over the chair inappropriately through a POWER GRAB involving Clapp and Mills.
These three seem to work together on everything and it is looking BAD for Calaveras County. With the chaos, lawsuits, recalls and the Cannabis issue still being bantied about, Calaveras is a joke around the state--more than usual!!

The Crisis from mike weimer on Vimeo.
I got a call a couple months ago from a gentleman from Global Media Outreach seeking advice for doing ministry online. After rambling about the iPhone App that I had helped develop and the 300 people who had downloaded it, he went on to share about the 1,000,000 people that they had reached in the past year through Global Media Outreach. I was overwhelmed and inspired. I still am. Global Media Outreach is simply using the power of Google and other search engines along with very simple websites to reach millions! While I was on the phone with the gentleman from Global Media Outreach he encouraged me to go to http://www.greatcommission2020.com/ and just watch while we were talking. You can visibly see who is going to the various websites around the world and whether they make a decision to receive Christ. It is a powerful movement of the gospel in our world! The structure that they have created is incredible with training where you can become an online missionary and giving where for every dollar you give, the gospel is shared with 10 people online. After you check out the website, I greatly encourage you to get your church connected to this ministry through their Online Missions Program. It will be exciting to see how God uses this incredible ministry and how we might all partner together as ONE online furthering the gospel message to the world.

text: AMMONNEWS - Prime Minister Omar Razzaz on Thursday received two reports on the flashfloods that severely damaged shops and businesses in downtown Amman late February.The first report was conducted by a technical firm commissioned to identify the reasons that led to the flooding, while the second was handed in by a technical team from the Greater Amman Municipality (GAM). Razzaz referred the two reports to a government committee to evaluate their content, stressing the need to identify and address the shortcomings that caused the incident.He also underscored that the government is aware of the damage to merchants and property in the downtown Amman area and will hold accountable any official or authority proven to have neglected their duty.The government committee consists of the interior, water and industry ministries, and the GAM among other entities. For further investigation, these ministries were instructed to review the reports' results and follow up on the recommendations made and hand in a final report of the reasons of the flooding and shortcomings, if there are any, as soon as possible.On their preliminary findings, the technical firm's report said the extreme downpour Amman witnessed was not behind the floods that occurred on February 28th, but the heavy rainfall triggered a problem in the drainage system in the capital.On the other hand, GAM's report concluded that the heavy downpour exceeded the capacity of the underground drainage system below Quraysh street, adding the system was fully-functioning and that there were no blockages before, during, nor after the February 28th.

How To Maintain Healthy Looking Skin During the Winter!
Fight Back Against Flakes
Wearing a liquid foundation is a great way to achieve a dewy glow—but if you apply it over dry, flaky skin the results can be less than satisfactory. For a quick fix, Nicholas Perricone, MD, FACN recommends using a toner formulated with alpha lipoic acid and DMAE, "two excellent antioxidants that act as natural anti-inflammatories. They will remove the flaky skin while refining and toning skin texture." For longterm protection against peeling, though, Perricone says you have to treat the underlying conditions. "It's important to make sure you have adequate intake of healthy fats found in fish, fish oil, extra virgin olive oil, etc.," he says. "While topicals with strong anti-inflammatories can do wonders it is of critical importance to not forget the dietary component."
Moisturize and Exfoliate Correctly
"Get ready for the dryness of winter by switching from a lightweight 'summer' moisturizer to a more emollient version," says skin care expert June Jacobs, who recommends using one with SPF. "Although the temperature has dropped a bit, UV rays are still present so don't forget to shield your skin from environmental damage with a broad-spectrum protector."
Exfoliation is also necessary for a soft, bright complexion but according to Perricone, granular scrubs should be avoided. "Exfoliation should be accomplished using alpha hydroxy acids—mechanical exfoliation can cause further thickening of the outermost layer of the skin, resulting in a rebound effect," he says, adding that "exfoliators with alpha hydroxy acids can be used during all four seasons."
For further brightening effects, Jacobs suggests using an alpha hydroxy acid serum that contains mulberry and bearberry extracts, natural lightening agents that help correct sun-induced hyperpigmentation.
Keep Up a Healthy Lifestyle
The colder weather might cause you to go into hibernation mode, but if you feel too sluggish to hit the gym be sure to squeeze in some at-home exercise via workout DVDs or the stairs. "Regular exercise will increase circulation to the face, promoting a glowing complexion," says Perricone. (Bonus: Stress can lead to "a loss of radiance" and exercise can help relieve tension.)
Perricone also emphasizes the necessity of getting enough sleep: "Nothing is worse for your complexion than sleep deprivation," he says. "Not getting enough sleep can make you crave sugary, starchy food which can lead to breakouts." Another glow-getting don't? Cigarettes. "Smoking restricts the blood flow to the skin and causes dullness as well as premature wrinkles, deep lines, and loss of suppleness," says Perricone.
How to Shine Brightly—the Unnatural Way
Using a luminizer is a great way to emphasize your already-glowing skin. Celebrity makeup artist Darac suggests going for one that has holographic properties such as "nanospheric optics" shaped in hearts, clovers, and stars ("When light hits them," he says, "it bounces off in different directions and tricks the eye.") The cosmetics guru—his clients include Brooke Shields and Lindsay Price—also recommends choosing skin-perfecting makeup with hyaluronic acid, which "provides hydration and protects skin from the dryness of fall and winter."

I work in the Financial District of New York City. And everyday is the same routine.

We'll make suggestions on how to incorporate the latest trends into your daily wardrobe and transition your outfits from the hectic work day to a fun night out in town. Wall Street FAB will be the working woman's go-to source for Fashion, Beauty, and Lifestyle tips.

He went out, apparently to show his much-loved classic car to a potential buyer, and while the car was found splattered with blood, his body hadn't until now. It is not the only unsolved murder case on Sejer's desk. He has another one that occurred just a few days before Egil's disappearance, a prostitute found dead in her own apartment. He can't help but wonder if there is some connection between the cases.
Eva, a local struggling artist, is divorced and shares custody of her young daughter with her ex-husband. She lives in hope that she will one day be "discovered" and gain the attention she believes her art is due. Meanwhile, she struggles to put food on the table and keep her bills paid, relying on a small Arts Council grant. She visits her father, who lives in a nearby town and whose health is failing, on a regular basis. But her life has changed recently and when she receives a phone call one day from a stranger, her unease grows.
This book introduces Sejer, his dog, and his family situation, but doesn't yet develop the characters of the other police officers.

WUHAN, China - Sixty-three minutes was all it took for Petra Kvitova to end her 13-month title drought, overpowering Dominika Cibulkova, 6-1, 6-1, to win the Dongfeng Motor Wuhan Open.
Kvitova produced the latest in a series of brilliant performances in Wuhan, piercing Cibulkova's defenses at will to romp home, 6-1, 6-1, and recapture the trophy she also won in 2014.
"Wuhan, it's really one of my favorite cities. It was a great crowd all well, there were some incredible matches for me and I'm really happy that I can stand here as a champion again," Kvitova said.
In the opening game, Kvitova set out her stall, firing down a sequence of perfectly placed deliveries to hold serve with barely a minute on the clock. She would finish with nine aces, but the rest of her game was equally impressive. In the next game, a brilliant stretching backhand pass helped her to a break to love.
The Czech would end up winning 17 of the first 18 points. And when Cibulkova did momentarily halt her progress with a break in the fifth game, it merely delayed the inevitable, Kvitova dusting herself down to wrap up the set.
The second set was just as one-sided, as Cibulkova, appearing in just the second Premier 5 final of her career, battled in vain to avoid a rout.
While neither Cibulkova nor semifinal opponent Simona Halep were able to compete with an on-song Kvitova, the path back to the trophy was far from straightforward. In the third round, the Czech came up against new World No.1 Angelique Kerber in a match that went well beyond the three-hour mark and will go down as one of the best in recent memory on tour.
"This match was pretty long! It was a great fight by both of us - even though I felt down physically, I was really ready mentally for every battle that followed that one."
Thank you @wuhanopentennis for your hospitality and all of #teampetra for setting your alarm clocks this week ??? pic.twitter.com/Yk5wJf31MJ

Pigs in the City
Regina, Saskatchewan
Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP), the Canadian national law enforcement agency and an enduring symbol of the country. Established in 1873 as the North-West Mounted Police, a horseback troop, the force had a leading role in the settlement of the Canadian West. Today it employs nearly 16,000 peace officers, who are called Mounties.
The RCMP is directed by a commissioner located at the force's headquarters in the national capital, Ottawa. There are more than 700 detachments across Canada, with about 5000 civilian employees in addition to the officers. The Mounties enforce federal laws throughout Canada, provincial laws in eight of the ten provinces, and municipal ordinances in many municipalities. Currently, they are the only police in the Yukon Territory, the Northwest Territories, and the new Nunavut Territory, a situation that could change if tribal police forces are established in these northern regions.

The RCMP's major areas of national attention are the narcotics traffic; organized crime; commercial and economic crime, including money laundering and the new area of computer and telecommunications crime; and terrorism. The force operates marine and air divisions and five crime laboratories. The modern Mountie travels by airplane, automobile, boat, snowmobile, and power toboggan.
Applicants to the force must be Canadian citizens of good character. To be officers, they must be at least 19 years of age, graduates of the 12th grade, and in good physical condition. Those who are accepted as officer cadets must enlist for five years. They take a basic six-month training course.
memorial to the Mounties
In the late 1860s the new Dominion of Canada acquired Rupert's Land, a vast region of prairies, mountains, forests, and tundra, from the Hudson's Bay Company. Settlement of this wilderness would inevitably disturb the lives of the indigenous peoples, particularly those who hunted bison, also called buffalo. Consequently, the Canadian government decided to establish law and order on the frontier before allowing settlement so that Canada could avoid the experience of the United States, where the Western frontier was the scene of bloody warfare between indigenous peoples and white settlers.
Prime Minister Sir John A. Macdonald looked to the British Empire for models of policing.
In 1869 the Royal Irish Constabulary was adopted as a model for a centralized, paramilitary force that would keep order until settlement was complete. However, before the force could be organized, the most settled part of Rupert's Land, the Red River colony, became the scene of the Red River Rebellion, a resistance against the transfer to Canadian rule. After the resistance, the area around the Red River colony became the province of Manitoba, responsible for its own law enforcement.

The remainder of Rupert's Land, now called the Northwest Territories, still needed policing. This was brought home to the Canadian Parliament in 1873, when 20 to 30 members of the Assiniboine nation were massacred by American wolf hunters in the Cypress Hills. Parliament passed an act to begin recruiting for the new force, and by the spring of 1874 the North-West Mounted Police had 300 recruits. The force's first commissioner was Lieutenant Colonel George Arthur French. Below him were commissioned officers, of the rank of superintendent and inspector, and noncommissioned officer ranks of staff sergeant, sergeant, corporal, and constable. The force was not only a policing agency: Its commissioned officers could serve as justices of the peace, with limited authority to conduct trials at law.
Lightly armed, using horses for mobility, and clad in striking scarlet tunics, the new force moved west that summer in a long march from Manitoba across the prairies to present-day southern Alberta. There, people from Montana had set up a trading post and were illegally trading whiskey to indigenous peoples. When the Mounties arrived in September 1874, they promptly arrested the traders, thus earning the respect of Chief Crowfoot of the Blackfoot nation. This set the tone for generally good relations between the Mounties and the indigenous peoples.
every tourist a Mountie
In the mid-1870s the Mounties built a network of posts in present-day Saskatchewan and Alberta, including Fort Macleod, Fort Calgary, and Fort Walsh. Eventually they extended this network throughout the territories, with regular patrols sent out from each post. The whiskey trade was soon brought under control. The Mounties mediated conflicts between indigenous peoples and settlers. They also worked with the indigenous peoples in preparation for their signing treaties with the Canadian government. By 1877 most of the peoples of the southern prairies had signed treaties, thus opening extensive areas to settlement.
By the early 1880s, the force on the frontier had increased to 500, but unrest was growing among the Métis, a people descended from both indigenous and European ancestors. The Métis suffered from the disappearance of the great bison herds, which they had hunted, and from crop failures in the early 1880s. Warnings to Ottawa about growing unrest went unheeded, and in 1885 a resistance, the Northwest Rebellion, broke out, led by Louis Riel and Gabriel Dumont of the Métis community. The Métis defeated a Mountie detachment in the Battle of Duck Lake on March 26, 1885, but soon troops came from the east and quelled the resistance. Few members of other indigenous peoples joined the Métis resisters, reflecting the degree of trust that the Mounties had established.

After the rebellion, the government quickly increased the force's strength to 1000. A new commissioner, Lawrence W. Herchmer, was appointed with a mandate to improve the force's structure and operations.
The Mounties had been intended as a temporary force that would disappear when settlement was complete, and by the 1890s Parliament was being urged to save money by terminating the force. The Liberal Party won office in the 1896 federal election with a pledge to disband the Mounties. However, they soon discovered that the force was popular in the West. Renewed tensions between indigenous peoples and settlers also increased pressure to maintain the Mounties' presence. When Saskatchewan and Alberta became provinces in 1905, they arranged with the North-West Mounted Police to act as the provincial police.
Aircraft used to patrol the frontier
In 1896 the force dispatched 20 officers to the Yukon upon hearing of gold discoveries in the Klondike region. The next year the Klondike gold rush brought hordes of prospectors. The presence of a Mountie detachment, increased to 250 by 1899, ensured that a potentially chaotic situation was in fact orderly and law abiding. By the beginning of the 20th century, the force also moved into other parts of the far north, establishing a post north of the Arctic Circle at Fort McPherson in 1903 and another on the western shore of Hudson Bay. The Mounties asserted Canadian sovereignty and enforced law and order over Canada's last frontier.
During World War I (1914-1918), the force-now called the Royal North-West Mounted Police-took on national duties in the areas of security and intelligence. However, its provincial role was interrupted in 1917 when Alberta and Saskatchewan passed Prohibition laws, which outlawed the sale of alcoholic drinks. Commissioner A. Bowen Perry declared prohibition unenforceable and canceled the policing contracts for the two provinces. The strength of the force dwindled further as its members were recruited into the military. Many, including Perry, believed it would not last into peacetime.
vehicle for crossing the ice
After the war Newton W. Rowell, a federal cabinet minister, was sent across western Canada to assess the future of the Mounties. The options were either to eliminate the North-West Mounted Police or to expand it to become a national police force. When labor unrest swept western Canada and culminated in the Winnipeg general strike of 1919, the balance was tipped toward expansion. The Mounties were merged with the Dominion Police, who had enforced federal laws since 1868 in central and eastern Canada, and on February 1, 1920, were renamed the Royal Canadian Mounted Police. During the 1920s they were especially concerned with subversion and narcotics control. The force also extended its presence in the north, using a ship, the Saint Roch, as a floating post in the Arctic islands and carrying out pioneering dogsled expeditions across the eastern Arctic.
Major General James Howden MacBrien, who was commissioner from 1931 to 1938, directed an expansion and modernization of the force. Training was expanded, and advanced methods of criminal investigation were promoted, including the force's first forensic laboratory. An aviation section was added. Six provinces, including Alberta and Saskatchewan, contracted for policing services (two more were added in 1950). The number of officers rose to 2350.
World War II (1939-1945) brought new responsibilities in national security and counterespionage. Potential enemy collaborators were identified and interned. Close liaisons were established with foreign police and security agencies, especially the Federal Bureau of Investigation in the United States.
Counterespionage and countersubversion activity became particularly important functions of the RCMP after 1945, when Igor Gouzenko, a cipher clerk for the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics in its Ottawa legation, defected and turned over evidence of Soviet espionage. The Cold War, a 40-year period of hostile relations with the Soviets and other Communist countries, had come to Canada. For most of the next four decades the RCMP was in the forefront of counterespionage and countersubversion activity against the threat of Communism. In the 1960s two relatively minor security scandals became media sensations and led to creation of the Royal Commission on Security. The commission's report, in 1968, recommended that the security function be given to a civilian agency. This recommendation was rejected by the government.
In the late 1960s the force refocused its security work toward an internal threat from terrorists seeking independence for the province of Québec. In October 1970 a terrorist group, the Front de Libération du Québec, kidnapped the British trade consul in Montréal and kidnapped and murdered the Québec minister of labor, Pierre Laporte. After this crisis the government instructed the Mounties to intensify their undercover operations in Québec. They did so successfully, but some of their methods-break-ins, barn burnings, and other actions of dubious legality-caused a series of scandals in the 1970s. In 1981 a commission of inquiry again recommended that the RCMP's security and intelligence functions be transferred to a civilian agency. This time the government acted, creating the Canadian Security Intelligence Service in 1984. The Mounties still retain responsibility for investigating criminal acts of espionage or terrorism.

Episode 29: How Christians Deal With Grief, Part 2
Oct 25, 2017 by: Andy Dukes
This episode is a continuation of our previous conversation regarding how we, as Christians, deal with grief in our life and the lives of others. We invited Pastor Bill Overstreet to share his insight and wisdom about grief from a pastor's perspective. Bill serves at Indian Lake Peninsula Church, here in Hendersonville TN. Bill shares ways in which the world tells us we should deal with grief and then contrasts those approaches with what scripture teaches us.

Davis pitches higher ed benefits for aspiring teachers
ARLINGTON — Sen. Wendy Davis rolled out a proposal for public education Thursday, launching an issue that's central to her campaign for governor by calling for incentives for those who choose teaching as a career.
"I do believe that education must be the No. 1 priority that we address as a state," said Davis, who had a roundtable education discussion at the University of Texas at Arlington.
The Fort Worth Democrat didn't, however, have a cost estimate for her proposal, which includes such pricey ideas as teacher pay raises and more financial assistance, as well as a guarantee of early acceptance to colleges for high-performing high school students who commit to teach.
In response to reporters' questions, Davis said her campaign will be working to develop numbers. She said education can be made a priority within existing resources and that she doesn't intend to propose a tax increase if elected.
Davis often talks about her journey from difficult times to graduating from Harvard Law School, and says she wants others to be able to get the education they need to succeed.
Attorney General Greg Abbott, the Republican who's expected to get his party's nomination for governor, also has emphasized the importance of education and has had roundtables around the state on the issue.
He hasn't yet laid out proposals in detail.
Southern Methodist University political scientist Cal Jillson said Davis could dramatically make her point by endorsing ongoing legal action by school districts against the public education funding system, which the districts say falls short.
"Proposing education reforms but no new funds is timid. But attaching a big price tag to the reforms would be politically dangerous — so endorse the lawsuit and let the court set the price tag," Jillson said.
Davis already has taken aim at Abbott because his office is defending the finance system in court. Davis in 2011 filibustered in opposition to school cuts that were made in the face of a predicted budget shortfall, and she was among lawmakers who worked to restore funding in the 2013 regular session.
"I think this month will highlight the difference between us," said Davis, who's expected to get the Democratic nomination for governor. "I'll be talking in great detail about my plan for prioritizing public education in Texas while General Abbott is in a courtroom defending the cuts that were made to public education. I think it's a pretty clear distinction between what our focus and our priorities are."
Abbott's spokesman, Matt Hirsch, said by email that the Davis ideas "are more fuzzy math — a plan that will increase spending and impose more mandates on Texas universities without explaining how to pay for it."
"Greg Abbott believes in genuine local control of education: empowering parents, teachers, and principals to serve our students well," Hirsch said. Hirsch said that Abbott has cited the benefits of competition in the classroom, digital learning, student and parent involvement and high-quality teachers and principals.
The Davis proposal for teachers is the first part that she has disclosed of her overall education plan.
Under her proposal, high school students in the top 20 percent of their class as juniors would be guaranteed early acceptance to college — including the University of Texas at Austin and Texas A&M along with a host of other schools — if they commit to a teaching career.
Among other points, Davis said she wants to enhance the state's main financial assistance program for prospective teachers. In addition, she said she wants to raise teacher salaries, which she said are $7,000 to $8,000 below the national average. She said they should be more in line with that average.
Jillson said the education issue is key to the Democratic candidate's hopes to draw a distinction with her likely Republican opponent and win the governor's race.
"If she is going to do better among suburban women, she has to own the education issue," Jillson said.
"The Republican offer is a business-friendly environment of low taxes, small government, and deregulation leading to job growth. Davis has to counter with the point that underfunded schools ... won't provide an adequate work force and the kids deserve better," Jillson said.
"The problem for the Davis campaign is that Texas voters have preferred lower taxes to better schools since Sam Houston was a boy."

Bella and Willow
The streets have such lovely names in some parts of the OC.
My recent migration South has brought a few stories already. One of them this weekend was about a young girl named Thea who had made a long journey here herself.
"You look like Bella Thorne!"
"Who is that?" I asked her.
"Bella Thorne. She's an actress. I love her. You look so much like her."
"Hmm I've never heard that one before. The one I've heard a bit is Winnona Ryder."
"You totally look like her too! Yes!"
"Aww thank you."
Looking around I saw such calming named streets. They were named after trees and other calm types of elements. I looked to my left and saw Willow and Elm and Origin and more. Some were also named with Native American influence.
"The streets here are so serene. Your complex is so cute."
"Thank you so much! Do you live over here?"
"I just moved actually. About a week ago. I still don't know where much is."
"Oh wow. Where'd you move here from?"
"Los Angeles most recently. I wanted a change."
"I understand. I did too but someday I want to be in LA."
"Have you lived here long?" I asked her.
"A little bit. Not too long actually."
I asked her about her journey here.
"I moved out here from the Phillipines."
Thea told me a lot of personal information about her journey. About how her mother had left when she was 7 and came to America. About how hard it was to be separated. Sadly it sounded that she internalized much of it to cope.
"Are you ok with all of that? I'm sorry. It sounds like so much."
"I am. I understand. She wanted a better life out here. Now I do too and so does my sister. My dad.."
"Your father or your stepfather?"
"My stepfather."
"Go on. I'm sorry I'm just trying to get a good understanding of everything."
"It's ok. But yes my stepdad helped sponsor my sister and I to come out here for school. We both want to be entrepreneurs someday."
Thea told me about how she had wanted to originally go to school for fashion but changed her major to general marketing. She had even gotten accepted at FIDM in downtown Los Angeles. However, she changed her mind.
"It was going to be so expensive and I wanted to expand on my major. I'm going to keep studying here in Irvine and then... and then I really want to move to LA."
Thea told me she had lived in Newport Beach for a bit before moving to Irvine but that the call of the city was really getting to her after three years. She told me to enjoy my time down here but that she was about ready to make the opposite jump.
"You know, there's a lot of opportunity up there in LA." I told her.
"I know."
"And trouble."
Thea smiled.
"Yes I know that too. That's why I want to move to LA."
I guess the grass is always greener or the trees are always more inviting in a place you have never lived before.

Joe Fortes is one of my favorite places for brunch. Partially because they serve their amazing lobster oil and bread even during brunch service. The lobster oil is so good I could drink it with a straw! (No, not really, but I have considered it!)
The interior is very classic. It's like stepping back in time.
What I ate: Eggs Benedict with Sausage
I am not the biggest fan of hollandaise (blasphemy!) so I asked for it to be served on the side. This was a decent eggs benedict. The eggs were poached perfectly and overall this was a nice breakfast.
What I ate: Frenchy's Breakfast (three eggs, farmer's sausage, bacon, hash browns, multigrain toast)
This was standard fare. The potatoes were nice and crispy which I liked!
