"a completely different story in the same series."
so this story was very well written and fun to listen to. it seems almost too just connected from the previous book, battlemage.. it's as if the author wanted you right a detective fantasy novel and stuck it in his series. with a couple different names it could have been a completely different story in its own series. It was a little bit too disconnected from the series for me.
The narrators voice is the best I've ever heard!! His tone and character voices are very pleasing to the ear

"There is no way McGregor can defeat Mayweather", Aldo said. It wouldn't be happening if that wasn't the case.
McGregor isn't planning any back steps as he attempts once again to accomplish the impossible on August 26 vs. Mayweather at T-Mobile Arena.
What about the public? The entire main card will be available on pay-per-view through Showtime Sports.
If Mayweather and Manny Pacquiao generated 4.6 million buys on May 2, 2015, the upcoming bout could stand to be even more profitable. Other times he looked like an MMA fighter eager to charge his opponent, something he obviously can't do in a boxing match. The idea being that Mayweather needs to very cautious during the fight's opening rounds, and that the longer the scrap goes, the more it favors him.
"I haven't actually seen anything".
"As far as I'm aware, the rounds will be released after the fight". He's looking for the knockout.
"I'm going to spark (Mayweather)". If you would have told me a year ago that I would be at a world tour press conference for McGregor vs. Mayweather, I would have never expected that.
Only three global judges - one from Canada, one from Italy and one from England - have been among the 42 assigned to score Mayweather's 14 straight fights in Las Vegas since April 2006. "It is a victory for him - in my eyes".
"A fighter is a fighter", Mayweather explained.
It's hard to fathom any sporting event in which revenues could crawl within $1 billion and a gate producing an estimated $80 million and PPV buys in the expected range of four million-plus could be deemed in danger of underperforming, but that's the conclusion many drew from reports this week that thousands of tickets remain available.
In an interview with Ariel Helwani from MMAFighting on Friday night, McGregor revealed that he'd heard the song and that he'd been in touch with Mick and what he's offered him is simply class. Ellerbe knows ... ask these people.
And for what it's worth, Mayweather says the public will get their money's worth this time around.
"I am the face of the fight game, period". "This is an event". We thought the worst was about to happen.
Danny Rose questions Tottenham's transfer policy and his future
Asked if he could influence what the players are paid, Pochettino said: "I'm not involved in negotiation, no". Jenas added: " Spurs' model - they are looking to youth, and I think it's a very good way to go.

Before hearing you break it down, I would have thought that by fasting you would lost weight. But it would create a huge mental battle to not binge eat. Fasting and still exercising and managing your food is fantastic, so motivational and really helps me refocus. thank you!

Wow! You're such a motivational speaker. I really need to focus so that I could achieve my weight loss goals. BTW, I'm a Catholic but I like this subject. Keep on posting! :-D

I always seem to put more weight on during Ramadan for some reason :/

- Sam Athelete said...
Losing weight shouldn't be as hard as many people try to make it. People who are desperate to achieve weight loss are often prone to take more risks. The only reason most people fail in their fitness goals is that they have good intentions at first to adopt a new lifestyle, yet after a few weeks or months, they abandon their good intentions and slip right back into their old bad habits that gave them the excess body fat in the first place.

What's up, everybody! Its ShadowJin here and it's has been an eventful week with all the news about the new games coming out soon or in the near future. One of those games that have caught my interest is the Sony new exclusive Spider-Man title. Now although this game was shown during E3 last year, we were never shown any gameplay. Well, this year we were given a live demo presentation of what the Web-Head can actually do. Let's just say it's the Spider-Man game we've been wanting.
Have you ever over eaten before? How about the first time around it was bad and then you go round too and add more on before improving it before consuming? No? Well, I sure have been in that situation and I know you are wondering, "Kuma, wtf does this have to do with the Crew 2?" That is a good question because after playing the first title which was not too bad, but the racing mechanics and some glitches needed improving. There were some networking issues too that made it frustrating since it was supposed to be an open world game but could not connect half the time. E3 2017 Ubisoft conference finally showed a trailer and gameplay footage and all I could say was…
The world of Extinction is vibrant and lush, but it's under siege by a massive army of otherworldly invaders called the Ravenii. The main protagonist, Avil, is one of the last of the legendary order of Sentinels – warriors who are equipped with the skills and tools necessary to take down these fearsome foes. His ultimate goal is to save as much of humanity as possible, by helping civilians escape their imminent doom.
It is that time to Rumble! Ladies, Amazons, Valkyries, Furies, Daughters of Mars and much more are welcome to this arena with the best of the best women face off on the digital battlefield. This is Ladies War 3 an invite only match that will be live streamed for all viewers. These gamers button mash like no other, inputting the combos needed to juggle their opponents into submission or if a level permits it a ring out.
Special shout out to my VGtidbits peoples for always hooking me up with event information. So, headed to Union Square last night to check out the free event for Sony E3 Experience for the third year and as always you get the annoyance of the fanboys and many of them have those annoying Uncle/Dad jokes that make you cringe. But the atmosphere is always good with the right people that are there just for the purpose of what to expect next from Sony. Did it live up to our expectations?

We are approaching the end of the first decade of the new millennium quickly. It is hard to believe it has been 10 years since the Y2K bug had us on the edge of our seats. This past decade was certainly a tumultuous one from unparalleled highs to nearly unparalleled lows.
Certainly there are lessons to be learned from the past that can provide guidance for the future, but there is also value in thinking about the future and how we can prepare for it. Energy, the environment and nutrition will remain hot-button issues as will the globalization of supply and demand.
Consider that a 1-lb loaf of bread requires about 200 btu for baking (according to E.J. Pyler's Baking Science and Technology, 3rd edition), yet most bakeries use in excess of 500 btu to bake 1 lb. It would seem there is room for improvement. A starting point could be the establishment of industry targets for energy usage. And our suppliers could design to these guidelines.
The first steps in conservation are paying attention to details and getting back to basics. Here is an area that sharing best practices in cleaning methods, reducing waste and improving equipment designs will pay quick dividends. What we need is someone to lead the effort.
Is sliced bread heading out the door? Quite the contrary; it is gaining acceptance in developing countries as incomes enable the purchase of off-the-shelf staples. In the US, the trend will continue toward nutritionally enhanced variety breads.
Globally, food-safety initiatives, monitoring and compliance systems and adherence to standards will be demanded of food manufacturers. Assurance of the wholesomeness of products will be a prerequisite to acceptance in the world marketplace. This next decade will see increased pressure by consumers on manufacturers to control ingredient sourcing and provide processes, equipment and facilities that support regulatory compliance.
Changing demographics will result in a more diverse, unskilled labor pool competing for entry-level positions. This, along with looming workplace benefit costs, will likely increase pressure to eliminate none-value-added manufacturing jobs, as well as necessitate schooling of employees in baking basics so that they are prepared for skilled positions. English as a second language will likely be a part of educational programs.
• Hybrid mixing techniques that incorporate the best of small batch development and continuous mixing and require minimal operator skills. Techniques for pre-hydration of flour that enable increased absorption and reduced mix times.
• Belting materials that will enable new processing methods to be implemented and reduce cleaning requirements.
• Dashboards for equipment and processes that provide real-time process information on absorption, efficiency and yield costs. Bakers will be able to view shift and weekly summaries, too.
• Promoting the value of grain-based products in a balanced diet. Creating a base of information that reduces the impact of disinformation that results in the fad diets.
• Enhancing the image of our industry and the value it has in the work and marketplace.
• Preparing for changes in global climatic conditions and the pressures it will place on supply of ingredients and materials and the demand for finished products.
• Training of operators in baking skills and science, and preparing maintenance personnel with appropriate technical skill sets.

How My 5 Year Old Daughter Saved the Lives of My Entire Family
At 03:00 in the morning on 02 Jun 2015, I got a phone call from my uncle. By the time I could pick up the call, I missed it. There had barely been any signal at the place where I was staying and I was not able to receive any messages since last day. When I opened up my 'Watsapp', I got the message from my wife; it was erratically written and it said, "Help, all of us are falling ill in the train". They were travelling for my sister's marriage from Nagpur to Nasik on the 01 Jun 2015, and I was supposed to join the family from Kolkata on 03rd. Little did I know that my day on 02 Jun was about to begin with a horrific message.

Medical Discovery News
In the past 800 years, many things have been blamed for the plague that swept through Europe in the Middle Ages: the alignment of the planets, bad air, lack of proper hygiene, black rats and their fleas. Now scientists have data that suggests the climate in Central Asia at that time influenced the size of the great gerbil population, which triggered cycles of plague in Europe. These furry little rodents carried the plague bacterium, as did the fleas that fed on them. When the gerbil population shrank, the fleas found alternate hosts like horses, humans and eventually rats, which then made their way to Europe and triggered the plague pandemics.
The plague was caused by the bacterium Yersinia pestis. It is transmitted to humans through the bite of a flea that has fed on an infected rodent. Plague outbreaks have afflicted humans for thousands of years and changed the course of history. The first recorded plague pandemic began in 541 and was named the Justinian Plague after the 6th century Byzantine emperor. Frequent outbreaks for the next 200 years are likely to have killed over 25 million people. The second pandemic, called the Great Plague or the Black Death, began in China and spread westward along trade routes to Constantinople and into Europe. About 60 percent of Europeans died, eliminating entire towns. Continue reading

Fukushima, (Japan) The second hydrogen explosion in three days rocked a stricken Japanese nuclear plant Monday, sending a massive cloud of smoke into the air and injuring 11 workers. Hours later, the U.S. said it had shifted its offshore forces away from the plant after detecting low levels of radiation.
The hydrogen explosion further crippled Japan where authorities have been scrambling to avert a meltdown following Friday's massive earthquake and tsunami.
Crucially, the thick walls appear to be intact around the radioactive cores of the damaged reactors in the nuclear power complex north of Tokyo.
Rescue workers are combing the tsunami-battered Northeast for survivors and trying to care for the millions without power or water in Japan's worst crisis since World War II, which has likely killed at least 10,000 people.
Kyodo news agency reported that 2,000 bodies had been found in two coastal towns alone.
Some analysts said the damage caused by the disaster was so severe and the potential cost was so high that it could even tip Japan's economy back into recession.
The big fear now is of a major radiation leak from the nuclear complex in Fukushima, 240 km North of Tokyo, where engineers have been battling since the weekend to prevent a meltdown in three reactors.
The core container of the No. 3 reactor was intact after the explosion, the government said, but it warned those still in the 20-km evacuation zone to stay indoors.
The plant operator, Tokyo Electric Power Co (TEPCO), said 11 people had been injured in the blast.
"Everything I've seen says that the containment structure is operating as it is designed to operate.
"It is keeping the radiation in and it is holding everything in, which is the good news," said Murray Jennex, of San Diego State University.
A Japanese official said before the blast that 22 people were confirmed to have suffered radiation contamination and up to 190 may have been exposed.
Workers in protective clothing used hand-held scanners to check people arriving at evacuation centres.
U.S. warships and planes helping with relief efforts moved away from the coast temporarily because of low-level radiation.
The U.S. Seventh Fleet described the move as precautionary.
Meanwhile, the Singapore food authority announced it would begin testing imported Japanese produce for radiation.
Almost two million households were without power in the north, the government said.
There were about 1.4 million without running water and tens of thousands of people are missing. (Reuters/NAN)

NEW YORK, December 8, 2016 /PRNewswire/ --
California is home to about 12 percent of Americans, and full legalization of cannabis in the state has been a major milestone for this young, still devolving industry. California will start issuing licenses in 2018, as a result analysts and researches have started to look into the potential of the market in the near future. Vivien Azer, a cannabis analyst with Cowen, has estimated that consumer spending in the legal cannabis market will grow to $50 billion by 2026. Canadian Zeolite Corp. (OTC: CNZCF) (TSX-V: CNZ.V), Cara Therapeutics Inc. (NASDAQ: CARA), GW Pharmaceuticals (NASDAQ: GWPH), Insys Therapeutics Inc. (NASDAQ: INSY), Canopy Growth Corporation (OTC: TWMJF)
According to the company's research, formalizing the informal marijuana market by itself is estimated to be a $25 billion opportunity. The Cowen report indicates that part of that growth will be generated from the black-market transitioning into the legal market, some from new customers who previously were uncomfortable seeking prescriptions for the drug or have never used it at all. After California voted in favor Proposition 64, the state's medical marijuana market was already two decades old, therefore a transition into the legal recreational use would be probably be seamless.
There are many small companies focusing on this emerging growth sector. Canadian Zeolite Corp. (OTCQB: CNZCF) (TSX-V: CNZ.V) is an environmentally friendly Green Tech business with a focus om Zeolite, which is a naturally occurring mineral found in volcanic ash, and is notable in its crystalline structure perforated by microscopic pores. These pores allow zeolites to act as natural filters. As a result, Zeolites (microporous) are used across several industries for a variety of purposes, including agriculture and water purification. Recently the company announced and stated that it will begin shipping its natural zeolite to several medical marijuana growers in Canada and the United States.
Canadian Zeolite Corp. announced, "it has reached an agreement with Isodiol, a Southern California-based hemp Cannabidiol "CBD" innovator. Canadian Zeolite will now be working with Isodiol to research and develop CBD and Zeolite infused products and supplements intended for human and animal consumption.
In Isodiol's state of the art facilities in Southern California, the zeolite will be micronized maintaining its optimal cell structure to be combined with hemp derived CBD and other adaptogenic herbs. This will then be infused into a complete line of products designed towards human consumption, including a full line of anti-aging skin care products as well as products designed for animal consumption.
Isodiol's Chief Operating Officer, Troy Nihart, stated, "Isodiol is looking forward to introducing these new products to the marketplace. Zeolite as an additive, has tremendous potential especially with its detoxification properties. We feel there is an undiscovered zeolite market which we can develop and are very excited to begin a partnership with Canadian Zeolite."
Ray Paquette, Chief Executive Officer for Canadian Zeolite stated, "We are looking forward to working with Isodiol who is at the forefront of developing and marketing consumer based CBD products. We are excited to implement our natural zeolite into Isodiol's already successful product lines which will bring immediate value to our shareholders."
Cara Therapeutics Inc. (NASDAQ: CARA) is pleased to have completed enrollment as planned for Part A of the Phase 2/3 trial in pruritus associated with chronic kidney disease, as these eight-week data will determine the optimal dosing to carry forward into planned registration trials. As stated in its previous Phase 2 trial, I.V. CR845 significantly reduced itch and improved the quality of life for dialysis patients with this condition over a two-week treatment period, commented Derek Chalmers, Ph.D., D.Sc. President and Chief Executive Officer of Cara Therapeutics. "We look forward to reporting top-line data from Part A of this trial in the first quarter of 2017 and, based on the results, initiating the planned registration phase later in the year."
GW Pharmaceuticals (NASDAQ: GWPH) announced positive Phase 3 study of its cannabidiol drugs that are used to fight multiple sclerosis and a variety of rare epileptic diseases. Currently, the company only has one commercialized product which is Sativex that treats spasticity due to multiple sclerosis. GW also announced new Epidiolex positive phase 3 data in Dravet Syndrome and Lennox-Gastaut syndrome. "This is the pivotal evidence that the FDA will need in order to approve the drug. It is a potential breakthrough in these types of epilepsy that are the hardest to treat," said Chief Executive Officer Justin Glover.
Specialty pharmaceutical company, Insys Therapeutics Inc. (NASDAQ: INSY) develops and commercializes supportive care products. The company markets Subsys, a sublingual fentanyl spray for breakthrough cancer pain in opioid-tolerant cancer patients in the United States. Its lead product candidate is Syndros, an orally administered liquid formulation of dronabinol. The company is also developing Cannabidiol Oral Solution, a synthetic cannabidiol for childhood catastrophic epilepsy syndromes; and other product candidates, including other dronabinol line extensions and sublingual spray product candidates.
Canopy Growth Corporation (OTC: TWMJF) is a diversified cannabis company with two core brands, Tweed and Bedrocan. Tweed is a Canadian company with operations in Smiths Falls, Ontario, recognized to supply an unmatched selection of premium marijuana. Tweed offers strains such as Indica, Sativa and Hybrid. Bedrocan BV pioneered medical cannabis in Holland through decades of selection and refinement, leading to standardized, whole bud cannabis strains that patients can rely on. Bedrocan Canada supplies the same standardized strains to the Canadian market through exclusive licensing rights in the United States.

WPA2 hack: How secure is your Wi-Fi?
A big opportunity for private health firms
The more I hear David Cameron pushing the reforms on the NHS the more he sounds like a super slick double glazing salesman trying to maximise sales to reach his sales targets to achieve his sales bonus . I do not doubt that improvements can and must be made to the NHS but we need need changes that will not undermine the NHS and that are a gradual process which has the support of the medical profession.
[Mr Britnell was quoted as saying last October that the government's health reforms would be "a big opportunity" for private health firms who would show "no mercy" to the NHS. ]1
And if that means incomptent/negligent Drs and consultants are given the boot rather than Trusts trying to cover it up I'm all for it.
Here's an example.
A couple of years ago my then wife was called into hospital for an examination on the NHS. We were given a 9am appointment, but were pointed to a full waiting room and had to wait until 1pm to be seen. When we complained we were told that in that clinic they give all the patients for the morning the same appointment time so they know how many people they're dealing with.
On Monday my current partner had a private appointment for treatment. We were told to arrive at 7:30am, and as it's a 2 hour drive to the hospital we were jolly happy when we got there and were told that she'd be seen at 1pm. We were passed to a day room with a TV and bed, and had to wait until 1.
Difference between NHS & Private? Longer drive, earlier start time, £700 bill. We did have a TV in the room, but seeing as it was day-time there was nothing worth watching...
Alan 14
You will always get praise or criticism of any service even the NHS ! the NHS seems to be at its best when you really need it .
Fourm member
I did say the NHS needs reform in some way as the cost of drugs and treatments increase but the idea of involving private companies to have a greater role is worrying as it did not work in the past with the likes of utilities and Railtrack and the safety concerns raised . I understand that the idea is to have competition to lower prices as the above examples show it did not work and these private companies need to make a profit to pay its shareholders .
All I am saying is listen to the health service providers when I go to see a doctor he trained as a doctor not an accountant.
Fourm member
Weasel words
I do not recall this major policy in the Conservative manifesto
There was a series of programs on television about a year ago, when the 'failures' of the NHS were aired by I believe a person called Gerry Robinson. I wonder if the very feasible management and cost saving suggestions that he made, have fallen on deaf ears?.
The talk about Private and NHS, could be looked at in perhaps different views. How many consultants run a weekly patients list, that covers both the NHS and private enterprise. I know of one consultant, who no longer does NHS work, because his fitness for practice came under review. That hasn't stop this person from increasing his private practice work. It might be a case though, that this person might see privately an NHS patient under a private NHS agreement, due to overloaded NHS lists and target figures?.
Yesterday I had an NHS appointment, and as per usual (public transport arrangements) I arrived early. Having being passed to two reception areas at different locations in the hospital, I seem to have met the same scene. Bored patients waiting to be seen, and even more bored receptionists. When in the actual spot where I should have been, the wait wasn't to bad. But I still need to wait 2/4 weeks for the scan results, after the part-time doctor-consultant as made any decisions.
One thing that I have noticed on my numerous hospital visits, and that is the evidence of many 'hospital clad' people walking about with papers, generally looking very busy etc, yet at the same time there appears to be nobody keeping the waiting patients informed!.
Fourm member does this statement not ring alarm bells to you Mr Britnell was quoted as saying last October that the government's health reforms would be "a big opportunity" for private health firms who would show "no mercy" to the NHS. the private sector has been involved in the NHS under the labour government to clear up waiting list times for operations notice this was done for the benefit of the patient
despite all critics of NHS one clear fact..when i was a child i had polio..there was a severe out break in 50s with quite a few deaths...my folks wouldd not have been able to afford private health care..the NHS saved my life..i owe a debt of gratitude to it.
Funily enough I have had the same operation on both my knees, one was on the NHS and one was private. The NHS one took nearly 2 years from GP to operation, the second private one took less than 3 months. It would have been less but I couldn't make an appointment date. I get the private care through a work scheme and it costs less than £10 per month, well worth it IMO.
fourm member please try not to relegate this thread into another slanging match many people are really concerned about the changes that are proposed if your are healthy or fortunate enough to private health insurance its not so much a worry but if you have a pre existing condition you have no chance to take out private insurance or maybe your financial position does not allow it.
Please try to look at the whole picture for ALL members of the public and the genuine concerns that they have
Fourm member I did read what you suggested and a very valid point was made
how is this extraction in profits of billions of pounds of tax payers money from the NHS by global health corporations will lead to lower health care costs?
Reform the NHS but do it from within the NHS not as a vehicle to provide profits to private companies I am sure we all still remember how close the NHS was to collapse under the previous Conservative administration ? this could be David Cameron poll tax moment if he is not careful
This thread is now locked and can not be replied to.

Ehhh...I got nothin.
Nothing to see here; move along.
Still obsessed with the election? Check.
Watching the Emmys? But of course.
Still locked into increasingly anti-social behaviors? Umm...I did get out to see some people last night, so, perhaps that's getting better. But not much interaction planned in the foreseeable future.
Still struggling with the diet and in limiting my alcohol consumption appropriate to this task, but doing awesome on the exercising? Yeppers.
Still have far too many domesticated animals in this 1,800 square foot house? You betcha.
Fine. FINE. I'll do the damn food meme too.
1. How do you like your eggs?
Any way at all, except maybe soft-boiled. Poached or fried, over easy, with a hot, runny yolk, and no clear white. Scrambled in omelettes, breakfast tacos, stratas (stratae?), quiches, etc. I loves me some eggs. I have them (or, more frequently, their soulless substitute, Egg Beaters,) every single day. It's not just the kids who dig "Breakfast for Dinner" nights at our house, which would probably be the most shameful night in the month for most mothers worth their salt.
And, speaking of salt, it tastes good on eggs.
2. How do you take your coffee/tea?
Coffee, preferably, though I like a cup of hot tea in the afternoons, and some sleepy sort of tea at night. It used to be black, but recently I've been putting a splash of skim milk in. Half-and-half is awesome, but that's only for non-dieting days, of which there are few. I usually only get that for company...but gleefully drink up the leftovers after they're gone.
3. Favorite breakfast food:
Seriously? Would you ask me to choose my favorite child?
OK, um...let's see. Eggs. Next runners up: bacon, breakfast tacos, hot, homemade buttermilk biscuits with butter, really outstandingly crisp fried potato products (possibly with cheese and cream and porcini mushrooms in some combination,) cinnamon rolls (but only really really good ones, and only in combination with some sort of protein). Sometimes that white-trashy casserole with the eggs and the sausage and the cheese and the crescent rolls. Sometimes cold pizza, but not so much since college.
4. Peanut butter:
Ooooh, yes. Lots and lots of it. I'm finally an all-natural gal on the P.B.. Creamy or chunky; it does not matter. What matters is that there always must be at least two jars at my house, one in the cabinet (for The Man,) and one in the fridge (for the rest of us, who prefer our peanut butter be cold, and not separatey).
5. What kind of dressing on your salad?
Whatever's diet, and in my fridge. I think it's South Beach Ranch right now. Oh, there's lots of them that I really like - anything in the creamy caesar/parmesan/peppercorn family, or Sesame Garlic Sass, or Girard's Champagne. However, I don't buy them anymore...I just buy whatever has the least calories. Sigh.
6. Coke or Pepsi?
Coke. But it's a reasonably rare occurrence (less than monthly, and usually involving a hangover or the stomach flu) so when I have one, it is a REAL Coke, and not a Diet Coke.
7. You're feeling lazy. What do you make?
Soft tacos with leftover chicken, ground turkey, or hamburger, along with black beans, shredded cheese, and vegetables, and leftover rice, if we have any. (maybe frozen or canned corn, if that's all we have).
8. You're feeling really lazy. What kind of pizza do you order?
Cheese for the kiddos. If it's a standard pizza place, then some kind of combo with pepperoni and green olives playing a starring role. If it's a more gourmet-y type of place, then something with goat cheese or gorgonzola and chicken and rosemary often makes an appearance. If it's Mangia, then spinach stuffed. Always.
9. You feel like cooking. What do you make?
Standard dieting mode? Pan-seared, good-quality fish, with steamed or briefly roasted fresh vegetables, and a (small) bit of good crusty bread.
When I'm not in diet mode, I make an outstanding pan of green chile/sour cream enchiladas. Also, I make good chili (diet-turkey style and normal,) veggie lasagna, eggplant parmesan, and mole sauce. I don't bake a lot of things that require finesse, but I'm pretty good with cookies, biscuits, and brownies/cakes/pies...though I just cannot do a pie crust like my mother and grandmother did.
10. Do any foods bring back good memories?
Golly, yes. Thanksgiving foods, of course; crouton stuffing and cranberry sauce and the mashed potatoes that they eventually left to me to make, because I always insisted on the real deal and not powdered. Grilled cheese sandwiches and tomato soup made with milk make me think of sick days and snow days. The cinnamon nut rolls at The Kolache Shoppe on Burnet taste just like my grandmother's pecan rolls. I eat one, and I'm suddenly a nine-year-old at Christmas.
11. Do any foods bring back bad memories?
Can't think of any foods, only many, many, types of alcohol.
12. Do any foods remind you of someone?
Oh, yeah, every day. I think there is a food I associate with almost everyone I know. Is that weird?
13. Is there a food you refuse to eat?
Circus peanuts, candy corn. Anything in the spongy orange candy spectrum, actually. I'll take a bite of flan whenever someone has it, to see if I finally like it...but I will always hate it. Whiskey, scotch, bourbon, etc.
14. What was your favorite food as a child?
Crab legs at Red Lobster. Canadian Bacon pizza. Sweet-n-sour pork.
15. Is there a food that you hated as a child but now like?
Macaroni and cheese, hot sauce/salsas.
16. Is there a food that you liked as a child but now hate?
Any Hostess product. Sugary cereals with faux marshmallows. (But I will now and always love Captain Crunch).
17. Favorite fruit and vegetable:
Fruit: Raspberries.
Vegetable: Hmmm. Right now, it's brussels sprouts. It changes with the season, though.
18. Favorite junk food:
Fried potatoes in any form. Jalapeno cream cheese poppers. Hot wings, BYFO are best.
19. Favorite between meal snack:
Progreso Light Soup or a small can of tuna, sadly. Really, though, it's good bread with some peanut butter on it.
20. Do you have any weird food habits?
Not that I consider weird, of course. As stated, The Man think it is odd that I refrigerate my peanut butter. And, also, that I like a slice of cheddar cheese on apple pie. (It's a midwest thing. Maybe just a Missouri thing, I don't know.)
21. You're on a diet. What food(s) do you fill up on?
Diet soup with cabbage, steamed vegetables, sliced turkey breast, tuna
22. You're off your diet. Now what would you like?
Wine, chocolate, more sourdough bed...and can you pass the peanut butter, more bacon, and some triple-cream brie, please? (And yes, you may then have your way with me.)
23. How spicy do you order Indian/Thai?
Medium. I think I want it super-spicy, until I actually get it that way, when I remember that I'm much more braggy than my actual palate can handle.
24. Can I get you a drink?
I shouldn't. But O.K.
25. Red or White Wine?
Depends entirely on how hot it is outside. It's been nice to drink reds this past week. (O'course, though, it's been punishing for the past two days.)
26. Favorite dessert?
Dark chocolate dense truffly creamy cake-shaped somethings.
27. The perfect nightcap?
Like I said, some sort of sleepy tea. I like Get Some Zzzzs.
In fact, sounds good.
Hey, Mad Men won Best Drama! Christina Hendricks was about to come right out of that dress.
Looove her.

So the word was that A$AP Rocky's use of psychedelics would play a major role in the sound of his impending record. Well, here's the first official video and it's clear that the rumors were true. And just in case someone didn't get the memo, he titled the cut, LSD, to clarify.
Rocky goes out on a limb both lyrically and musically, on this new track. With his mind racing, Rocky tries to articulate what to him is a whole new world of emotion, coming to grips with who he's been and who he's becoming. The trippy and unique production, even plays into this voyage of self discovery as after the three minute mark, the beat entirely switches up and Rocky falls into a lyrical flow more reminiscent of that for which he's known (that being of more common and popular Hip-Hop tropes), until the lines, "That's when the new you becomin' different since they knew you. I guess the new me is just gon' take some gettin' used to." and with that revelation, the beat returns to the new A$AP Rocky style. The production uses effects, hushed vocals and an effective, subtle guitar melody, all of which continue to build, and, as mentioned goes through a complete, and lyrically appropriate, switch up, only to return to the original theme. It even takes nearly two minutes for a beat to kick in, which clearly goes against most Hip-Hop standards.
What excites me about this track, and hopefully the rest of the album, is that, given A$AP Rocky's high profile and stature within the world of Hip-Hop, there may be a ripple effect. Imagine if, instead of the verse/chorus/verse and repetitive themes and production of today's radio friendly Hip-Hop, more artists promoted cuts that didn't fit a mold, ones that explored different issues and weren't afraid to experiment with production techniques and varying tempos. It could be a revolution of individuality that sets the true artists apart from the legions of imitators. Diversity on popular radio? What a novel idea.

I made an emergency phone call to my father last night about 3am in the morning.
"What's wrong?" he asked. "It's three AM in the morning."
"My mind is racing, DAD!" I exclaimed frantically. "I can't slow down!!!"
"Can you drive?" he asked.
"Jesus Christ!" I muttered loudly and exasperatedly, and buried my head in my palm. He had wanted me to come and get some medications. I hung up the phone abruptly and rashly.
It was about four am when dad made it here. He handed me some of my Klonopin as I furiously paced the floor in the den.
"Sit down and rest," he said sleepily, yawning ever louder. "This reminds me of the night Joyce wouldn't take her medications. She was doing the same thing."
"Why have you stayed with mom all these years?" I asked with an extremely accusing and glaring eye. "Why do you continue to fool with me??? I am just crazy as shit. Mom is nuts as well."
"I stayed with your mother for her grandkids," dad said in a candid moment. "I wanted my grandkids to grow up and know Nana, and to know me and Nana as a couple. Broken families just weren't allowed when I was growing up. I don't want my grandkids to experience that. I've made sacrifices."
"So you throw all these medications at me and mom to keep us complacent!" I accused. "Just so you can live with us!!!"
Dad sighed extremely loudly.
"Are you not schizophrenic?" dad calmly asked.
"Yes," I replied. 'I think so."
"Don't you think you need to take something to make yourself feel better?"
"That's why I always drank beer and you cut that off you son of a bitch!!!"
"I am going home to sleep," dad replied getting up in a huff. "There is no talking to you when you get like this. Your medications will take effect in about twenty minutes and you will sleep. Go to bed!"
"No wait!" I said back peddling. "I am sorry. I feel better already."
"Don't you think your life is better with the medications?" dad asked with an air of pleading in his voice. "You have a wonderful life now that you are sober and medicated . Maggie does so well. You keep your home so neat and clean. You are able to go to your meetings and you and your mom have a relationship now, Hell, you and I even have a relationship now."
"But they aren't perfect!" I said, sighing, as I spoke of my medications and reclined back in my chair. My medications were beginning to take effect and I was growing extremely sleepy. "I will always have to deal with mental illness just as I will always be an alcoholic. I will always have to take these pills and I will always have to go to those socially anxious meetings."
"Just like a diabetic has to take insulin," dad replied analytically.
Dad said he then looked over after a quiet moment and I was asleep in my chair snoring softly. He said he was just about to tell me how well I do these days – that tonight was just a blip on the radar. Within a matter of thirty minutes, my medications had taken effect and I had crashed.
"No more Wal-Mart!" dad exclaimed with a smile as he was about to leave. "You and your mother have been wild and going constantly. You two have been the dynamic duo. I knew when you all come in the drug store the other day getting all that stuff that I was in trouble. You and your mother are usually very quiet people, but something has gotten you both off. You both are trying to do too much. Rest today and sleep. I will be back tonight to give you some more medications so you will relax."

It is on record that Divine Commonwealth Conference (DIVCCON) is an initiative of the Primate of All Nigeria, Most Rev. Nicholas D. Okoh and which by extension has been made an annual ritual by the Archbishops and the Bishops of Church of Nigeria, (Anglican Communion). It is with joy and great expectation that Anglicans and non-Anglicans are being welcomed tomorrow November 5th 2012 at Christian International Ecumenical Centre, Abuja for this year's DIVCCON that will end on Friday, 9th November, 2012.
DIVCCON is a conference that is open to Christians of all persuasions. It is not inhibited by race, language, culture or denominations. According to Primate Okoh: 'DIVCCON is not an Episcopal Synod, it is not a Clergy Conference, it is not a lay gathering, it is not even the gathering of only Anglicans, it is still not the gathering of only Nigerians. It is the body of Christ, the new humanity, the ECCLESIA of God, which is the Divine Commonwealth of God. This is a gathering that is different from the usual administrative ones that are all too familiar. It is a call for our spiritual rejuvenation and mutual edification, in an atmosphere of deep spirituality and learning'.
Continuing, Most Rev. Okoh observed: 'there are boundless possibilities when we encounter God, prayers are answered, forgiveness takes place, reconciliation becomes real, deliverance from enslavement to aberrations takes place, healing from terminal diseases is received. And what more, there is a fresh outpouring of the wonderful gifts of the Holy Spirit as believers' faith are strengthened. Moreover, by coming together from different Dioceses, Provinces and Countries, the Church will be edified. Surely, 'Iron sharpens Iron', and man sharpens another'. And this is in tandem with the scriptures: 'After this I beheld, and, lo, a great multitude, which no man could number, of all nations, and kindreds, and people, and tongues, stood before the throne, and before the Lamb…,' Rev. 7v9.
Among several participants in last year's conference was the General Overseer of Redeemed Church of God, Pastor Enoch Adejare Adeboye. He proudly spoke at the conference about his Christian roots in the Anglican Church. He recalled with nostalgic feeling his beginning at the Anglican Church and said he is an Anglican just like his family at Ife-wara near Ile-Ife in Osun State. He gave kudos to the communion and said 'we are very proud of you, for this new beginning'.
Pastor Adeboye declared: 'If the Anglican Communion was as open as it is now when I saw the light of the gospel I would not have left. 'The Anglican Communion in Nigeria is resolute and firm, standing by the undiluted word of God. it is not surprising that when the hydra-headed sin of homosexuality reared its ugly head, the Church of Nigeria, (Anglican Communion) said: 'sin is sin' and refused to compromise nor tolerate it'.
Pastor Adeboye, who was delivering a goodwill message at the Divine Commonwealth Conference in Abuja drew its text from Exodus 3, verse 1 to 11, related the story of Moses and drew a comparison with the beginning of the Anglican Communion in Nigeria and came to the conclusion that God who brought Moses for a mission of new beginning at the age of 80 is the only wise God who brought Anglican Communion to bring light to the continent of Africa has a purpose for the Church. The Clergyman, whose message was intermittently punctuated by laud applause, said that he had an unshaken belief and hope that DIVCCON and the future of the Anglican Church is very bright. He therefore called on all Christian people to remain firm in their faith in the Lord Jesus Christ.
It is interesting to note that the first Divine Commonwealth Conference (DIVCCON) organized by Church of Nigeria, (Anglican Communion) that was held in Christian International Ecumenical Centre, Abuja in November last year was a huge success. There was an avalanche of testimonies that poured out from the said conference. Men and women testified to the goodness of the Lord in their lives. We thank God for the number that received afresh the resurrection gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ. Also, for the high level of healing and deliverance that took place during the preaching of the word of God.
It is hoped that this year's DIVCCON also will bring a greater revival, hope and spiritual outpouring upon God's people.
We humbly commend the efforts of the planning committee headed by the indefatigable Bishop of Ife, Rt Rev. Oluranti Odubogun for their bold step in organizing yet again DIVCCON. This year's DIVCCON comes at a time that the nation is in crisis – flooding, unbridled kidnapping, unemployment, economic downturn, power failure and persistent bloodletting in the land. No doubt, innocent bloodletting in the country had been crying out for vengeance upon the land and this in no small measure may have contributed to the chaotic situation in the country. It is hoped that through such gathering; God will heal the land and restore sanity in our nation. It is scriptural as the Bible will put it: 'the prayers of the saints availeth much', James 5v16.
God certainly will hear us and heal our land. And so to all participants, Anglicans and non-Anglicans, we welcome you to another great convocation of God's people, DIVCCON, Abuja 2012.Ven. Ernest Onuoha Rector, Ibru International Ecumenical Centre, Agbarha-Otor, Delta State.
