Chicanery Frontier
Dark Institute Sorceror
Shrise is short for a half orc but very intelligent. She has a shaved head and a tribal tatoo on the side of her head. She looks like she is always angry even when she is happy. She has learned to carry herself in a very intimidating manner because the orcs and half orcs don't generally respect women.
Shrise was brought out Chicanery as a teen by her orc parents. Around that same time she discovered her arcane gifts. At first she was rejected for the magic she could do then she was feared. A human wizard named Jensen took her under his wing. He is the person that originally established the Dark Institute. He was a wanted man back in the old world and smuggled himself into Chicanery via planar teleportation. He was eventually hunted down and killed for a bounty that was on his head. In the power vacuum Shrise rose to power.

Rick Warren Net Worth Is $25 Million
Rick Warren is an American author and a renowned evangelical Christian pastor. He is the senior pastor of Saddleback Church, which is an evangelical mega-church and the 8th largest church in the US. Warren has authored numerous Christian books and is best known for the devotional book known as "The Purpose Driven Life". The book sold more than 30 million copies, making Warren a New York Times bestselling author. He has an estimated net worth of $25 million, which he has earned through his ministry, as well as his many books.
Richard Warren was born on January 28, 1954 in San Jose, California. He holds traditional theological and evangelical views on social issues such embryonic stem-cell research, same-sex marriage and abortion. He has on various occasions called on other churches to focus their efforts in expanding education opportunities for the disadvantaged, fighting poverty and being environmental conscious. In 2008, he hosted the 'Civil Forum on The Presidency' with both presidential candidates, Barack Obama and John McCain ahead of the presidential election.
Warren is married to Kay Warren, whom he married in 1979. Together they have 3 children, Josh, Mathew and Amy. Sadly, Mathew, their younger son, died on April 5, 2013 at the age of 27. He committed suicide after battling with mental illness that caused severe depression. Both Warren and Kay have 4 grandchildren. Warren considers his own father, Peter Drucker and Billy Graham to be some of his mentors.
Warren and his wife are also directors of various non-profit organizations including RKW Legacy Partners, Acts of Mercy and Equipping the Church. As a result of the success of his book sales, Warren decided to return his twenty-five years of salary to the church. He also discontinued taking his salary, and says that he and his wife turned into reverse tithers, living off ten percent of their income and giving away ninety percent.

An imam calmed crowds and protected the suspect from angry crowds, following this morning's attack near a mosque in Finsbury Park.
One man has died and 10 people were injured after a man mounted the pavement and ploughed his van into pedestrians, mostly made up of worshippers who had just left the mosque.
The driver of the van, a 48-year-old man, was held down by members of the public until police arrived and placed him under arrest.
Footage of the man's arrest was shared on Twitter.
People at the scene could be seen and heard to be getting angry as the police arrived to take the man into custody, however, the imam and several others, asked for people to remain calm.
Metropolitan Police confirmed earlier this morning that the incident was being treated as a terrorist attack.
London Mayor Sadiq Khan took to social media to urge people to stay calm and vigilant. He wrote: "We don't yet know the full details, but this was clearly a deliberate attack on innocent Londoners, many of whom were finishing prayers during the holy month of Ramadan.
"While this appears to be an attack on a particular community, like the terrible attacks in Manchester, Westminster and London Bridge, it is also an assault on all our shared values of tolerance, freedom and respect.
"The situation is still unfolding and I urge all Londoners to remain calm and vigilant. Please report anything suspicious to the police, but only call 999 in an emergency.
"The Met have deployed extra police to reassure communities, especially those observing Ramadan."

Scientists have not conclusively proved findings about air pollution's effects on brain development, but a rapidly growing body of evidence creates "reason for concern", UNICEF's Nicholas Rees, the report's author, told the Thomson Reuters Foundation.
"Not only do pollutants harm babies' developing lungs - they can permanently damage their developing brains - and, thus, their futures", UNICEF Executive Director Anthony Lake said in a statement.
Air pollution potentially affects children's brains through several mechanisms. It also benefits their societies – realized in reduced health care costs, increased productivity and a safer, cleaner environment for everyone, " he stressed.
Satellite imagery used to assess pollution levels around the world found that South Asian countries accounted for 12.2 million of the total number of affected children but that there is also a growing problem in African cities.
The brains of developing children are especially vulnerable because they can be harmed by smaller doses of toxic chemicals compared to adults' brains, the report states.
Ultrafine toxic particles can enter the body through the bloodstream and travel to the brain, damaging its barrier and causing neuro-inflammation. Then, specific air pollutant particles such as magnetite can lead to oxidative stress which is often the cause of neurodegenerative diseases.
Donald Trump's personal banking information handed over to Robert Mueller
Others, as you'll see, said that Judicial Watch's Chief Counsel Jay Sekulow was the Trump lawyer who denied this subpoena claims. Adam Schiff (D-Calif.), said, "Special Counsel Mueller's subpoena of Deutsche Bank would be a very significant development".
A UNICEF report released on Wednesday, Dec 6 - a day after the first International Smog Day - says babies in South Asia face the danger of poor brain development due to air pollution.
These include investing in renewable sources of energy to cut air pollution, increasing the amount of green spaces in urban areas, and improving both knowledge and monitoring of air pollution.
It further recommends improving children's overall health to bolster their resilience, and promotes exclusive breastfeeding and good nutrition.
The report urges parents to reduce children's exposure to harmful chemicals, including from tobacco products and cooking stoves.
Reducing children's exposure in the areas of high air pollution is also very important.
UNICEF warns that as more countries grow into modern, urban societies, governments have failed to provide "adequate protection and pollution reduction measures" to protect young children.

In which - watch out, sweet thing, a change in the weather is all that you bring.....
Yeah, giving a deva a hard time isn't any more advisable than giving Mother Nature one.
No such problems here today. Aura talked to Azalea a couple of days ago and it looks like Tori is going to be out of our hair for awhile. We hope, anyway. Scaramouche is expecting a protege - according to her, the word is NOT "mentee" - a young tidepool deva (according to her) who she met while she was down trying to help find that plane that vanished in March....
(You have to imagine Hawthorne trying to sing that when she can't carry a tune in a bag....)
"Hawthorne, what are you doing?" I said. "And who's that?"
"Trying to. We didn't really." Tempest had an accent that Aura told me later was Welsh. "We ended up having to send it into a bunch of unoccupied buildings because we couldn't steer it far enough around the town."
"Oh yeah, right. We kind of took out the church, didn't we?" Hawthorne looked sheepish.
"You don't, like, drop tornadoes on purpose?" Not the best way to phrase it, I know, but you try asking that question.
"Oh no, never. I'm just one deva of many who bring rain and snow where it's needed. At least I try to. But I can't call up a cloud if there's not enough water vapor in the air to work with. And sometimes the rains I call up get out of control and the next thing I know, I'm trying to control what your human friends call a supercell thunderstorm."
"Sometimes those things take on a life of their own," Hawthorne added.
"They are alive, in their own way. Some of the most powerful storms are almost sentient," Tempest said quietly. "All devas work with powers we can direct, but not control."
Note: Tempest is a Pukifee Dony who arrived about six weeks before I was expecting her. I'm not complaining, though.
Bonus shot - Tempest in action a couple of nights ago.

Lankayan a dive resort, Sepilok nature resort and Kapalai a dive resort
Lankayan Island, a dive resort in the Sulu Sea.
There were only a few hours of rest time after the Mount Kinabalu climb. At 7 am the next morning we flew across the state to the town of Sandakan, boarded a speedboat for the ninety-minute trip to the island of Lankayan. The seas were rough and it took two hours of rocking and rolling to get there. The island was just how I remembered it but with a few changes. A new restaurant is being built on stilts over water and my wife's favourite chalet (#1) has been torn down to make room for the walkway to it.
After settling in to my wonderful and spacious chalet, I explored the island. It takes approximately twenty minutes to walk around it. I observed faded turtle tracks headed away from the sea to an area near the tree line where they dug holes for their eggs. These turtles come on shore at night to lay their eggs where the resident biologist, Archie, would gather the eggs, incubated them and released the hatchlings to the sea. The guests were notified of these events, usually in the middle of the night.
Paradise was slightly dampened by the continuation of the rainy season, which was supposed to have ended a month ago in February. However, the skies managed to clear that first evening allowing for a beautiful sunset. I took advantage by using Tom, and other guests as models, giving the images a human touch. The colours were amazing, the golden rays turned red and magenta, giving me hope that the next day will be sunny, as in the phrase "….red skies at night, sailors delight". It was not to be, the skies were grey throughout the next two days. Torrential rain fell most of the two days and my thoughts of getting bronze colouring on my skin faded with the rain.
Our trip back to the mainland was uneventful, the seas were smooth and in ninety minutes time, we were on a bus headed to Sepilok Nature Resort, situated next to the Orang Utan rehabilitation center.
Sepilok Nature Resort.
Now I know why it is call the Equatorial RAIN-forest. The vegetation is green and lush. Plants of all kind can grow anywhere and everywhere. Trees grow tall and straight up, fighting for the life giving sunlight. Different species of flowers, from orchids, bougainvilleas to ginger plants dotted the landscape.
We checked into our chalet and it will be the first time that we needed air conditioning. On a positive note regarding the weather: not having the sun shining, the temperature and humidity were not as intense as it usually would be.
It was a short walk to the Orang Utan rehabilitation center to catch the feeding time at 3pm. Not only were the Orang Utans there for the feast of bananas, there were dozens of Macaques, a medium sized monkey. The outnumbered Orang Utans were constantly swatting at the Macaques as they tried to steal the bananas making the situation very amusing for all the humans.
The following day we were transported to the airport for our last leg of the resorts: Kapalai, a dive resort in the Celebes Sea.
Kapalai, a dive resort in the Celebes Sea.
We arrived at the Tawau airport from Sandakan in 40 minutes, and transported again by bus to the coastal town of Semporna. We arrived at the jetty and the tide was extremely low and had to crawl from the platform into the speedboat. The trip would have taken 30 minutes but it took 40 minutes due to the low tide. The boat had to go around coral reefs instead of over it at high tide. Tom and I searched Google for explanation of tides and found out that the Spring tide (nothing to do with the season) is in effect. "When the moon is full or new, the gravitational pull of the moon and sun are combined. At these times, the high tides are very high and low tides are very low. Spring tide occurs when the Earth, the Sun, and the Moon are in a line. The gravitational forces of the Moon and Sun both contribute to the tides. Spring tides occur during the full moon and new moon.".
Unfortunately for us the sun did not make a strong presence. However we made the most of it by exploring this resort on stilts. A "green house" lined a walkway for about 200 meters, a "beach", and a new sitting area for watching the sunset were some of the spots we explored. During low tide we walked down to the sandy reef and found a turtle near the water's edge. We wondered why it stayed up on the sand bar, and were told to leave it alone and it will get back to the water. At high tide, the waves were splashing through the boards around the dining room, making cool patterns coming up through the slots.
I had an unfortunate accident but not a serious one. I was going to photograph a dive master in her suit, goggles, fins and tank. We met around the pier (it was low tide), she headed down towards the water, slipped and fell. I went to help her up and end up slipping on the slimy boards. At that instant I imagined myself and my cameras sliding off of the pier into the ocean, my right hand broke the fall and slide. The pain was quite intense, I thought I had dislocated my shoulder.
The staff was very helpful and told me that they are readying a boat to take me to the mainland for x-rays. There was not much different between going to the ER here as in the US: there is a long wait, and then the doctor comes in for 5 minutes, writes a prescription and you are done (she told me that my shoulder did not dislocate, just sprained). The only difference is what I paid for that visit as opposed to the US. I paid 10RM, approximately US$3.33. I got back to the resort just before sundown and got in a couple of late evening shots and dinner.
The food here and also at the previous resorts and Mt. Kinabalu were just fabulous. It was "too good" to not eat more than usual. It was justifiable to have two or more helpings during the climb; I burned a total of 7,000 calories in one and a half days. However, at these resorts, it was simple gluttony!!! I will have to get back to my routine and work off all the excess food.
Tomorrow we are departing Kapalai resort. The general manager of these three resorts will meet us at Tawau to show us around town and then DINNER before we fly off to Kota Kinabalu. Great, more food!!!
Even though the sun was not the most cooperative, we had a terrific time for the past two and half weeks. I captured many excellent shots and the memories will last forever. I hope that I had "taken" you on our journey and maybe you will consider visiting Malaysia in the future. Thank you.
Images of these three resorts are at this link: Click on the albums of Lankayan, Sepilok and Kapalai.

Great shots of the resorts. We just had rain, sleet and then 4-6″ of snow in the last 24 hrs. So nice to see the water, sand, palms and flowers!!

They also have beautiful flowers surrounding their new screened in porch I got some shots of.

Indian Editor Shirin Dalvi Arrested For Reprinting Charlie Hebdo Cover, Released On Bail
The editor of an Indian newspaper was arrested for reprinting controversial images published in the French satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo.
Shirin Dalvi, editor of the Mumbai edition of an Urdu-language daily, Avadhnama, was reportedly arrested by local police on Wednesday, but later granted bail, the Times of India reported. Inside its Jan. 17 issue, the daily paper had carried the picture of the Charlie Hebdo cover printed after the terrorist attack on its offices in Paris.
She was arrested in the town of Mumbra, near the financial capital of Mumbai. The police acted under a clause in the Indian Penal Code, which prohibits malicious and deliberate acts designed to outrage religious sentiments.
"She was arrested by us, produced in the court and granted bail. We are investigating the matter," SM Mundhe, a senior police official in Mumbra, told Agence France-Presse, cited by local news agency NDTV.
Several readers had approached police in Mumbai and the neighboring district of Thane to complain about the covers being reprinted, the Indian Express reported. A local Urdu-language journalists' group, the Urdu Patrakar Sangh, had called for her arrest after the issue was published.
Speaking to the Indian Express after being released, Dalvi said she had made a mistake, and had not intended to harm any religious feelings.
The cover in question, portraying a picture of the Prophet Muhammad carrying a sign saying 'tout est pardonné' (all is forgiven), had sparked protests across the Muslim world.

The metals and mining sector is presenting opportunity this year, and analysts are eyeing this positive trend for investors in shares and ETFs.
An analyst with HSBC recently noted what he sees are the top opportunities in the metals and mining sector. The Wall Street Transcript says that the places to go this year will likely be bulk commodities, such as iron ore, coal, thermal coal and metallurgical.
Coal looks especially good, says the analyst. China is rapidly consuming coal and iron ore, but they're also two commodities in shortest supply. China's demand is also such that coal can't be produced quickly enough to cover it.
A similar rosy outlook for the platinum market is forecast, too. Last year, the group of six metals known as the platinum group metals (PGMs) outperformed gold and this year should bring more of the same, says Wong Eng Soon for the Business Times. A pick-up in global auto demand, tight mine supply growth and more demand for investment are seen as being the primary drivers of any gains.

Last season, Minnesota Twins second-baseman Brian Dozier hit 28 home runs. Since making his MLB debut in 2012, Dozier went from hitting six home runs to 18, then 23, then 28. This season with roughly 20 games remaining, Dozier is sitting at an astonishing 40 home runs. Again, Dozier plays second base, not designated hitter or first base or a corner outfield spot; positions more synonymous with big power numbers. Yesterday, Dozier set a new American League record for home runs by a second baseman when he left the yard again. The record was previously set in 2003 when Alfonso Soriano hit 39 for the Bronx Bombers. The MLB record for home runs by a primary second baseman is held jointly by Rogers Hornsby and Davey Johnson who both hit 42 in 1922 and 1973 respectively.

What makes Dozier's season even more remarkable is the fact that his season was in the gutter before the All-Star break. Dozier was hitting an anemic .246 with 14 home runs in 83 games. In the 55 games since, Dozier is hitting .319 with 26 home runs. Unfortunately for Dozier, his season is largely being overlooked because he plays for the lowly Twins. The Twins are an AL worst 53-91, a mere 30.5 games back of the Cleveland Indians in the AL Central.
Dozier is under contract with the Twins through 2018. His base salary for this season is $3 million, it then jumps to $6 million next season and $9 million in 2018. This season, among MLB second baseman, Dozier's salary ranks 18. Even with next year's salary jump he is still very affordable. Next year at a salary of $6 million, 12 second baseman are still more of a cap hit than Dozier.
The Twins have struggled in recent years and Dozier could soon become a trade chip. His power as a second basemen, his contract years remaining and his salary could net some big returns for the Twins if they decide to trade Dozier in the off season. Dozier is going to set the MLB record for home runs in a season at his position. Hopefully if the Twins decide to move Dozier his talents will be better appreciated.

Spacewise has now been published, and is now live on the Teaching and Learning Exchange (TaLe). The resource can be accessed directly by clicking here.
Users of TaLe can also find the resource by visiting the TaLe homepage by clicking here, and then selecting the Parents and community tab and searching for spacewise in the search engine. Using this process, Spacewise is the first resource to appear.
Teaching and learning kit
The Spacewise teaching and learning kit is comprehensive set of resources focused on learning about the design and use of public spaces. The materials are tailored to support teaching that meets the requirements of the NSW Years 7 - 8 Technology (Mandatory) syllabus.
The Spacewise teaching and learning kit contains:
- a sequenced 10 to 12 week unit of work
In this unit students study a local neighbourhood and consider how well it meets the needs of the community. They explore how the neighbourhood has changed over time. They consider issues associated with the conservation and preservation of any significant local historical and/or cultural features.
In groups, students analyse a public space that is part of the local neighbourhood and use information from this analysis when designing and producing a proposal for a re-development that better meets the community's needs.
- a design folio for use by small teams of students
The folio provides a small design team with a structure for working through their design project to produce a development proposal. It includes room to record design development and team decision-making. It provides questions for reflection at each stage of design development.
- an individual student work booklet
The work booklet is intended for use by individual students. It contains activities that link directly to the design folio and that help students to participate actively in their team. It contains a glossary of key terms and questions to aid reflection by individual students.
- a guide to architectural modelmaking
The support document on modelmaking recognises that models are an important part of the design process for any project. It provides information about the construction and use of models to help students to analyse a situation, to identify the needs of those who use a space and to communicate concepts. It provides guidance on materials, tools and techniques and includes links to other useful resources.
- an introductory guide to drawing
The 'Teacher resource: Drawing basics' provides information for teachers who may require support to guide students during the early stages of skill development. It explains the purpose of some basic types of drawing and suggests materials, tools and techniques for use when producing architectural drawings.
- links to other relevant online resources.
A short index to of online resources to support the classroom introduction of basic architectural concepts and to support and approaches to architectural drawing.
Spacewise resources were piloted by Manly Selective Campus of the Northern Beaches Secondary College and Strathfield South High School. Students at each school evaluated local public spaces and proposed developments to make a selected space better meet the needs of the local community.
Spacewise resources were developed by the Technology Unit of the NSW Department of Education and Training with funding and support by the NSW Architects Registration Board.

CEOs, bank presidents, even former CBS News anchor Dan Rather were all dropped from high school teams and they fared well later in life. We all know about Michael Jordan being told he wasn't going to make his high school basketball team; he turned out okay as well.
So, it makes sense that I should have been doubly successful in life because I was cut twice from teams of yore. Somehow, that early childhood trauma didn't translate into some survival instinct in my career, though.
I never had much of a sporting prowess. Sure, I could play basketball with the neighborhood kids, and I was decent in backyard whiffle ball. I could stick-handle a puck in our street hockey games in Minnesota like old Northstars leftwinger J.P. Parise. But put me in some organized sporting event and I became pretty klutzy. I had the dexterity of a broken-stringed marionette operated by a drunken puppet master with palsy.
I've written about my baseball experience here before. I was about 10 years old when I tried out for Little League in northern Minnesota. I was supposed to wear glasses to correct vision so bad that I think the eye doctors who diagnosed my epic myopic eyesight originally thought of just giving me a seeing-eye dog and a tin cup and pointing me to a street corner. But I opted not to. Vanity, in my case, was blind and I relied on my sense of smell and sound to maneuver around. Yes, I was as blind as a bat when, well, swinging the bat.
I was playing left field for our Little League team on my birthday that year. Some kid on the opposing team — the Orioles, I actually remember — lofted a soft fly ball my way. We were losing 28-1 at the time; if I could catch the ball, there'd be some satisfaction I could garner from the game. I stared at the sky, hoping to smell the incoming ball. Instead, it plopped behind me, the kid scored, we were trailing, 29-1. The coach screamed at me, took me out of the game and ushered me into a world of the first of many disappointments.
When my family moved to Arkansas several years later, my parents wanted me to get involved with school activities more to help bust that culture shock of moving from the north to the deep south. I tried out for the basketball team. Again, I was awful. I could dunk a basketball flat-footed and I knew how to spin the ball on my finger. If we had a halftime show ala Harlem Globetrotters, I could suffice. Forget putting me in a real game, though.
During practices, the coach called for a star drill, in which players ran in a frenzied, yet choreographed, pattern, passing a ball back and forth. When it came my turn to participate, I looked like Lucille Ball trying to dance a congo line with Rockettes. I ran to one point, the ball ended up at another. The star, sadly, blinked out. The coach yelled at me, "It's a star drill, stupid." I over-analyzed, asking if he meant a regular five-pointed star or if he was referring to a Star of David.
About a week after I tried out for the school team, a small forest fire broke out near our home. My father got a hose and watered down the edge of our yard to keep the fire from spreading. I grabbed a rake and tried to cut a fire line as protection. I ended up stepping into a pit of burning leaves and my sock caught on fire, badly burning my foot. Now, 40 years later, I still have a faint scar from that.
I couldn't walk, let alone do star drills, and that gave my coach the perfect opportunity to cut me from the team. It hurt my pride. Even at that age, I knew I was no good but the rejection still stung.
It may be what helped draw me to the APBA game, though. I decided to learn the strategy of basketball and the tendencies of NBA players of that era and gravitated toward the APBA basketball game. It's a plodding game; most complain about the length of time to play, but I learned the teams by playing those contests and could out talk anyone about the pro game.
Years later, I interviewed the coach who dumped me for a story for the newspaper where I now work. The coach, long retired from the school system by then, had become a county judge of one of the rural counties in my coverage area in northeast Arkansas. I don't recall the topic of the story, but I called him and eventually told him about how he cut me.
He became nervous and asked if he was diplomatic in releasing me from the team. After all, I write for a paper that's read by about 190,000 people during the week and 285,000 on Sundays, along with multitudes online. His words would be read by a lot of people; I think he was apprehensive that I may have carried a grudge for quite a while. I told him he was right to let me go, and he probably saved the integrity of the school's athletic reputation by keeping me off the hard court.
But I wondered, after reading about how all those who prospered in business got cut early in life, why I didn't fuel my rejection into millions in salary.
Maybe I need one more rejection. Maybe there's some senior men's basketball team around that needs some power forward that I could try out for. If they do a star drill, I'm sure to get cut.

English Advert Essay
Extracts from this document...
Chocolate Advert Chocolate is a huge global product produced in hundreds of versions and styles by hundreds of companies to appeal to all types of consumers. There is a lot of competition for customers as the business is worth millions of pounds. The advert chosen is for Green and Blacks organic chocolate which is beautifully shown in one the weekend news papers. There are two forms of advertisements - display adverts and classified adverts. Display adverts are used by large companies such as Pepsi or Nike to advertise their brands or services. Display adverts use lots of colours and pictures to compete against other adverts for the public's attention. They are used in magazines, papers and posters. ...read more.
These emotions and thoughts do not give a positive feeling for the customer and would seem less appealing for a family day out. The colour blue however would give a sense of water and relaxation. The gold light also blends well with the dark brown and it makes the advert look more professional than using for example green and pink which are colours not associated with chocolate. An advert that looks professional is more likely to attract customers as they will think if the company can afford to make a decent poster then they can afford to make a decent product. The layout of an advert also plays a part in its professional look which will increase the chance of the customer purchasing the product. The layout on this advert is rather simple. ...read more.
The language used is for activities a grown up would enjoy such as "listening to the archers" and "red wine on Wednesday". The image that the chocolate is expensive and special is used to appeal to older customers who have more money to spend on luxury items. This advert is effective because it appeals to the targeted older customer for the product. It uses the sophisticated colours and language which appeal to grown ups. The slogans used "as if you need a reason" and "it deserves a little respect" make it sound special and a treat for the customer who can afford a more expensive chocolate. The advert could become more effective if the logo was sharper and larger to attract attention but over all its clear, interesting and a good image to remember. ...read more.

I am knocking furiously on wood as I speak but, with any luck, my chili peppers seem to have a lustier attitude. I'm grateful for that because the 'maters put a terrible dent in my green thumb self esteem. What you see in the above photo is the Lemon Drop chili pepper plant. I guess it's a couple of feet tall now and, huzzah! It's just beginning to put out some blossoms which, if all goes well, will turn into some eagerly anticipated peppers. I'm so excited. It's almost like birthing babies ... thankfully, without the labor pains.
Have you noticed something? Or, more accurately, have you noticed the lack of something? Those of you who have supped the sacred beverage with me for any length of time know I always do a bit of bitching and moaning every year when Daylight Saving time goes into play again. And I thought about doing it this year, too. I really did.
Then I realized ... those people aren't listening to me! No. Not even a little bit. For all my wailing and caterwauling, they not only continue to mess with the clocks, they've started messing with them even earlier than before.
Well! (That was a Jack Benny "Well!" Very effective.) You don't have to slap me alongside the head with a wet clepsydra. Nope. I refuse to waste another moment in futile fulmination. Because, you know what? It doesn't matter if somebody says it's 8 o'clock when it's really 7 o'clock because, either way, it's really just ... NOW. Right now.
In the Now, it's either daylight or dark. It's either early or late, which is a relative assessment, subject to when I wake up or go to sleep and that can change according to mood or need no matter what any silly clock says. Stuff will happen when it happens. Always does. Always will. To every thing there is a season. Yeah.
It's good that I've freed up all that previously wasted energy. I'm going to need it to keep up with my pollination duties. Gee. Who knew gardening could be so sexy?

When is the best time to prune rose bushes?
Most of this depends on where you live, as warmer areas tend to prune in fall while cooler regions wait until spring. It may also be based on preference, though spring seems to be a popular time for pruning roses. This article will help you with that: https://www.gardeningknowhow.com/ornamental/flowers/roses/pruning-roses.htm

So, supposedly, the Afgan government has changed the wording of its abhorrent law permitting marital rape Women's eNews reports: The law, which originally read "a woman must be ready to have sex with her husband every four days," has been revised to "a woman is required to do any housework that the couple agreed to at the time of marriage," the Associated Press reported on July 8.
The revision does not address some of the other conditions of the law, like denying your wife food if she doesn't give you any.
Call my cynical, but it seems like a farce to me. This law, in its original wording, seems to me like an honest statement of how Afghan men view their wives. They are in the midst of a media firestorm and are trying to appease our western ideas, but it doesn't mean the intent of the law isn't any less real. It's a cultural view of women, a religious view of their worth, cannot be changed just because the West hemmed and hawed.
In other parts of the world, being a woman in the Congo still sucks. While some commanders have promised not to tolerate rape from the men under him, as Texas in Africa asks, how is that going to be implemented? Her conclusion: It's much more likely that those accused of rape will either face a form of mob justice or that they'll be sent home, set free, or kept in the ranks to continue destroying women's lives.
It's like when the peace deal with signed in Goma but had no teeth outside the city. So men kept raping women, the conflict continued and now, 18 months later, nothing is different - it actually might be worse.
But TiA did bring up another point in her post: talking to the men about their actions, comparing their acts of rape to someone raping their wives and mothers. In Healing Invisible Wounds Richard Mollica points out that, "Cultural annihilation proceeds most effectively not through physical destruction but through sexual violence." When rape is being used as a weapon of war - when it is happening to disable communities, to break down family structures, to displace and separate people - it goes beyond a head thing. I would be interested to know if the men they are speaking to can make the connection between their women back home and the women they raped. Sometimes the breakage between raper and raped - especially when the rape is so severe and massive - turns the women they are violating into other beings. They are not human, they are not Congolese too, they are not women - they are objects to be dominated and abused.
Again, call me pessimistic, which I am, or realistic. But when 1,100 women are raped each month in the Congo (source) and so far there has been little (if any) justice or reprisals against the soldiers who have committed mass rape the probability that proper justice will ever be found is slim to none.
In either country being a woman is hellish because in both cases the government has, for all intensive purposes, turned its back on you. Women are second to men or second to the many issues in a conflict that made them victims. Maybe it's time other women stood together up and spoke out for justice.

A short while back, I blogged about the growing personal submarine business. Personal subs are, of course, just the tip of the iceberg - or the tip of the conning tower - of the goods and services being consumed by the super-rich.
Paul Harris reported in a recent article in The Observer on some of the goodies available to the growing cadre of billionaires in the U.S. (Up since 1985 from a paltry 13 to over 1000. Even adjusting for inflation - i.e., a billion ain't what it used to be - that's quite a growth spurt.)
Here are a few things that money can buy for those wealthy enough to inhabit the parallel universe of the hyper-rich, dubbed Richistan by WSJ reporter Robert Frank:
- Time sharing at Solstice, where 80 members who pay $875,000 to join get to swan around to one of 10 swank places "fully staffed with cooks, cleaners and 'lifestyle managers' ready to satisfy any whim from helicopter-skiing to audiences with local celebrities." I wonder what the "local celebrities" get paid - or is the mutual preening enough: you're rich, I'm famous, ain't we got fun?
- A $736K Franck Muller watch that makes a Rolex look like the $12 Timex I got when I graduated from grammar school.
- A $700K Mont Blanc pen that can be carried in a $42K Louis Vuitton pocketbook. (You have to ask yourself whether a $700K pen writes better than, say, a $1K Mont Blanc-er - or even a measly $100 pen.)
At least these items are durable goods. How about the Algonquin Hotel's $10,000 'martini on a rock', which has a diamond instead of an olive. And I started getting unnerved when a glass of wine started running $10.
We all know about the high-end Kobe beef burgers, that can run you more than $50, but Harris found a $1,000 omelette - probably a little more elaborate than the Western from Denny's. I'm guessing caviar. And maybe the chickens are hand raised, free-ranging in $10M timeshares, and sipping from "Bling". For those who are still trying to assimilate the fact that half the bottled water they're paying for comes from a tap, "Bling" can run up to $90 a bottle. (Smart shoppers like Paris Hilton, who is said to give it to her dog, can get it for much cheaper than that, but if you want the really fancy bottles, you have to pay a bit more.)
Now, I appreciate that things that cost more are often of higher quality. A Lexus is more comfortable than a Kia and all that. But you do end up reaching the point of diminishing returns sooner rather than later. Water out of a $90 bottle is still water, after all.
There's an upside to all this, of course: butlers are in such great demand that butler school grads can make six-figures for popping open that bottle of Bling for the master.
But mostly, the growing population of Richistan symbolizes downside, not upside. Rich get richer, poor get poorer, the incredible shrinking middle class keeps shrinking, and even some of the super-wealthy (think Gates and Buffett, who probably aren't buying the $700K watches and pens) are questioning whether it's good for the country to have the level of wealth capable of dropping $1K on an omelette get away with being so lightly taxed.
We're told that keeping taxes down means that more money gets plowed back into the economy, but is this where we'd like to be see the plowing back occurring? Taxes that paid for improved infrastructure, better schools, parks and recreation, more widely available healthcare, and other share-the-wealth items would be plowing back, too, wouldn't they? And those taxes wouldn't have to be all that confiscatory, either.
It will be interesting to see how this story ends.
Nice to live in the land of opportunity, and all that, but as more and more people start feeling closed off from the opportunity they may start feeling a little more 'us and them'.
All this wretched, retching excess....
You know the old joke: One nobleman, seeing the mob gathering outside the castle gates with their pikes, says to the other, "The peasants are revolting."
"Yes," agrees nobleman two, "They certainly are."
Methinks that, these days, it's not exactly the peasants who are revolting.

Dare Kenyon lived for his motorcycle club, they were his family. He did his best to do right by them and to protect others. Dare will find it difficult to help his next client, Haven. He will immediately want her but before he can start thinking about forever he will have to stop the men after Haven.
Haven Randall had been a runaway with her best friend which was how had come to be kidnapped. They were rescued and brought to the Raven Riders for safety. For Haven it had been the first time that she had truly felt save and just as she was settling in her world will be rocked once again.
Ride Hard is the first book to the series Raven Riders by Laura Kaye. I have to say that I loved that Laura Kaye has written this series. I had loved Hard Ink series and with the introduction of the Raven Riders I was excited to read their story. So, yes, I really loved the story. How could you not with hot bikers whose mission was to save those who were in trouble.
I liked Haven. She was definitely timid and scared of her own shadow but you knew deep down she was stronger. I liked that she started to come out of her shell but she was very much the victim for most of the book. Though I wasn't mad at that because that was how she grew up. Dare's character was an alpha but he is very much a softy. Dare had a tragic past but he was doing everything he could to help others. I liked that his club was like a family and they protected each other at all costs. That will be proved when the bad guys come for Haven.
I can't wait to read the next story though I have awhile to wait before the second book comes out as it will be coming out in April of 2017.

*** Having a few picture posting problems. Got a signal but pics are taking ages. Sorry!***
Finally made it this afternoon, crossing the border from Georgia at Kazbegi. Had no problems at all and the people there were really nice, even filling in our forms for us. Ok so we might have signed something important away, but at least we're in. The delays of the last week have been really stressful and today's progress was just what we needed.
We left Mtakheta this morning and headed straight up the Georgian Military Highway, due north (I think). It was a straightforward bit of road, and thankfully, most of the mad drivers of yesterday were terrorising road users elsewhere as we had a pleasant ride up towards Stepantsminda and through the Kazbegi Strict Nature Reserve. (Presumably strict as in dedicated , rather than strict as in discipline). It was quite a climb too, the road going up to about 2600m, reminiscent of the Atlas Mountains or the High Alps,complete with snow.
We met a Dutch couple on the way. They were travelling in a 1952 German Fire Engine that had been given to the Dutch government as war reparation, and they had been all over the world in it. And impressively, they had a 20 year old Transalp strapped to the back which they use as easy access transport. They invited us for coffee but unfortunately, we couldn't accept as we needed to pile in the miles. But they would have been cool to chat to.
We had been warned about the road nearest to the border and it was every bit as bad as advised. But worse still were the tunnels a bit further on. Completely dark, no lighting at all, and a bad road surface. We just had to peer into the darkness and hope for the best. Fortunately for us, no vehicles came the other way but it was a scary experience. Don't know what we would have done had we had a breakdown or accident.
The border post was a bit of an anti climax, and more like a petrol station than an international frontier.
The Georgian bit was very quick but the Russian one wasn't bad either, given their penchant for paperwork and weary administration. We did get searched but it was only a cursory effort, and they liked my six words of Russian, and seemed particularly impressed that I knew the Russian for Buckingham Palace ( Bookemgempski Palitzia) As usual, we were the afternoon's entertainment for all nationalities gathered there and our bikes attracted even more attention today for some reason. We had an interesting conversation with an Armenian and an Azerbaijani about travelling and the Eurovision Song Contest, and we then called in to an office by a guard, who then guard typed out the whole of our passports before sending us on our way into Mother Russia.
Immediately over the border is a big army base and various relics of previous frontier tensions - a few tanks, some bunkers, and soldiers patrolling, but again, we had a pleasant ride don off the mountains through some incredible scenery. Reached the nearest town ( Vladikafkaz or something similar) smack bang in peak hour traffic and nearly brought the place to a standstill with people looking at us instead of where they were going. Decided to quite whilst we were ahead though, having realised that we couldn't even read the road signs, found a hotel, and farkled the bikes. Surprisingly, there was no damage after today's rough riding, but we still did the usual checks - chain, oil, spokes, brakes, tyres, headset bearings.
The reception bloke is great and speaks English and even the concierge seems to like us now after first of all telling us that the hotel was full and we couldn't say here. Its huge and there are about three other people here, so I'm not sure what that was all about. But the man said something her in Russian and she changed almost immediately.
Its tipping it down now, with various rumbles of thunder, so we won't be wandering out tonight. Heading for The Capsian Sea and Kazakstan tomorrow.

With the Vericom V-Sense RG, you can now conduct road testing and road audits in 1-pass with 1-person. The V-Sense RG is designed with unique firmware to measure road roughness, road friction, superelevation, radius and more. With the Profile X1 analysis software, analysis of speed vs road geometry provides the tools a road engineer needs to reduce traffic congestion and improve road safety.

Properly, I cannot assistance with weight reduction but I will assistance with connection position and problems stemming from relationships. Though some persons plan to be committed or engaged by the end of the year, others target on the best way to end their recent marriage/relationship and begin over or in different cases, how to fix a connection that is continuing (relationships between parents regarding the youngster throughout and post divorce).
For associations getting ready to go down the aisle, I recommend to my customers to try and enter into a prenuptial agreement in order that they are protected in the foreseeable future and both events know where they stay should a divorce happen and if it will, a prenuptial agreement will make things easier.
For people who come in relationships and can not accept it anymore, the issue is, Are you positive you want a divorce? Have you been prepared to begin a "new living?" When you yourself have young ones, "How do you strategy to tell them?" Should you choose get that route, an experienced attorney can help you the way to handle some very difficult situations. The thought of having to accomplish another "vacation period" next year wherever possibly or equally spouses artificial their happiness facing their own families never to fear anyone, is often an excessive amount of and contributes to the filing of divorce soon after the vacation season http://happynewyearstatusupdate.com.
Yes it's true, the vacation time is probably probably the most stressful time of the year for many people. Coping with in-laws, parents, drunk cousins, and so on is not attractive to numerous persons and while your own personal relationship is against the rules, showing at vacations together with your partner becomes evenmore stressful. The lengthier you delay, the longer you make reasons, the not as likely you will actually file for divorce and seek true change.
Parties who have currently divorced on the otherhand have issues too. Particularly if the former spouses/lovers have young ones together. In these instances, the parties are "closed" together and must option with each other as time continues on unless one parent decides to start their new living definately not their current house and reductions down his / her kiddies sadly. For the majority that do perhaps not cut their young ones off regardless of "torture" the former partner presents, it is essential setting you New Year correct as well.
If there are issues concerning the custody, parenting time and/or economic issues concerning your young ones, you need to cope with it. Approaching a concern that influences your daily life can be profound. Sweeping it underneath the rug will only lead to more problems just like appeasement throughout situations of war often lead to more and more issues later on.
For parties who do not need marital or connection strife, the New Year brings opportunities to secure your family's future by way of creating a will, a living will and/or wellness proxy therefore when anything does occur to you, your family won't have to live solely off social security. Developing a will and an idea for your family members in your absence is one of the greatest points an individual can perform for their particular well-being.
Therefore we wish you a pleased holidays and urge you to publish down the important problems you want to handle in 2015 and if there are some that want an lawyer, be clever and maintain one earlier rather than later.

Congrats! You found our site. Ready to start your biohacking journey? As you might gather from the name, we are devoted to teaching people everything we know about biohacking.
Be the first to have access to our courses upon release by clicking below and subscribing early!
Thaddeus began his journey outdoors, camping and fishing as a boy in the Adirondacks and Central NY forests. After a decade spent developing pharmaceutical products, he just couldn't face another day adding terrible ingredients like high fructose corn syrup and numerous red dyes into children's medicine. He shifted gears and engineered a successful work from home assignment following Tim Ferriss's 4 Hour Workweek. From there, he was able to find a way to incorporate more movement, nature and sunshine into his work environment.
After learning about biohacking from the man who coined the term, Dave Asprey, Thaddeus healed his own anxiety, lowered his blood pressure and fixed his sleeplessness using biohacking, PrimalHacking and Qigong. He spends his free time experimenting on himself in hopes of helping others on their journey. He writes about his experiments on PrimalHacker.com. He also spends time with his two boys learning martial arts, shooting arrows at targets and hiking.
Thaddeus is a certified Bulletproof Coach from the first ever class of coaches, holds a personal training certification, nutrition certification, Master's degree in Holistic Nutrition and studied Chemical Engineering a long time ago.
The biggest thing people say after they've been biohacking for a while is, "I wish I knew how much this was going to cost me."
Often, when we realize how disconnected we are from the natural world, and how much this is affecting our health, we decide to spend all sorts of money on supplements, technology and coaches.
We want to regain our health, lose weight or just reduce our risk for disease and early death.
To make up for our lack of connection to the natural world, and to right the wrongs we feel, we fill our lives with more distraction. We become burdened with material possessions that suck up our energy and finances.
PrimalHacking is about finding The Truth.
The Truth is that your mindset will set you free.
The Truth is that sometimes you do need a coach and mentor to help you grow.
The Truth is that you need to first address your disconnection with the natural world before you begin biohacking with devices, technology and supplements.
The Truth is that some of us work full time, in places that harm our health and can't get out of it.
In these cases, we use biohacking to make up for our poor environment when it's beyond our control.
We don't say our way is the only way. We don't even think you need to spend any money on the absolute best biohacks – sunlight, good water, connection with the earth, and movement are totally Free.
Chris began his journey outdoors foraging medicinal and edible plants, hiking, hunting and camping in the woods around his childhood home in central Indiana. After spending a few years inside a windowless office he knew he needed to be outside and started working outside as an ironworker building tall commercial buildings all around the Midwest.
After a serious accident that resulted in numerous injuries to internal organs and trauma to his brain he began to study and research ways to heal himself and make sure his body and mind was operating at peak levels. After experimenting on himself and helping family and friends to do the same he realized that optimal health and performance through biohacking and ancestral health was one of his biggest passions and decided design his life around this. PrimalHacker is the combination of those two passions.
Chris loves spending time in the woods with his four boys, foraging, practicing martial arts and exploring ways to improve all aspects of health and performance. He is a certified Bulletproof Coach from the first ever class of coaches and a certified holistic health practitioner.
By Brian Stanton Before WiFi, before cell phones, before electricity - humans were exposed only to the electromagnetic fields (EMFs) of the Earth and the sun. This exposure was probably healthy for our cave-dwelling forebears. Research has shown, in fact, that coming into direct contact with the Earth's magnetic field - a practice called "grounding" - has beneficial effects. Oh to be a hunter-gatherer again. But these days, grounding represents but a small portion of…
Thaddeus and I just got back from the Bulletproof Biohacking Conference and one thing that really stood out was the number of people talking about exposure to electromagnetic fields (EMF). That was really good to hear considering that EMF's are now classified as a human carcinogen. With all of the new technology, wireless communications, and electronics on the market today I firmly believe that exposure to EMF is one of the most troubling health issues that…
