Skofield Park, Santa Barbara front country
Locate the trail head.
The Rattlesnake Canyon Trail starts at Skofield Park and reaches into the National Forest behind before popping up on Gibraltar Road. A connector runs from it over to Tunnel Trail, so routes to the top exist by either the road or the trail. I decide to head up it thinking I might go to the road, which has a good view of the city but the air has been hazy for weeks. I might go up to Mission Fall but it is as dry as always since it takes more even water to flow than cleaning up the haze requires. I might just poke at things. I find a place to park on the east side of the one lane bridge at Skofield and drop into the dry drainage along some use trail to cross over to the big sign where the trail presumably starts.
|I found some graffiti under the bridge at Skofield Park.
I turn up the trail and soon cross over flowing creek and climb along a couple switchbacks with multiple deep shortcuts to a good trail at the top coming from the east side of the creek. The trail stays high on that bank for a bit, passing an old driveway with a small trail and stout wire marked "no trespassing" to hint that it isn't for the general public to follow. A little further, there is a second route to the right that is well traveled and likely goes to a ridge that is popular for the view. I skip both these and keep going up.
|For some reason, I want to shout out, "Cookies!"
The trail crosses over the creek and climbs up again so that the creek is just out of view. It is high enough that the creek is out of view, but never particularly far above the water. It crosses back for a moment as the creek crosses through one of the harder bands of sandstone. A small trail leads out of the rocks again, but on the other side of the creek. Another climbs a slope to some shiny bolts set into an overhanging rock. A rope and some other equipment has been left hanging on the rock. They also built up some wood pieces to help keep the dirt below the wall in. I wonder why there are bolts set below knee level while sketching in the cool.
|Rattlesnake Canyon Trail as it winds up through the Santa Barbara foothills.
|Once in a while, there is a view out of the canyon, past St. Mary's Seminary, and out to the hazy ocean where the islands are almost visible.
|A high inflow makes prominent ripples over a pool in the creek.
|Climbing gear left up in some permanent bolts on an overhanging bit of sandstone.
Continuing on, the trail crosses back over to the west side of the creek fairly quickly. Up the hillside again, the trail passes a few switchbacks that look like they've been reclaimed. Soon it comes out to a meadow that is just before the junction. The south end of the meadow shows signs of fire, but the junction looks unsinged. Somehow the old wooden sign is missing, but it was loose on the ground and could have been taken home by someone.
|A moth sipping nectar.
|A nice spot any time of the year. It turns orange in the spring but now is just brown.
|A look up the canyon along which the connector trail travels to Tunnel Trail.
I decided to skip the route to the road to the right. I turn up the connector to Tunnel, leaving all trees and entering a burned area. There had been at least one big tree that is now charred lumber. Generally it was only bushes, but they can get to 20 feet or so. They aren't even as tall as I am now. Today wasn't supposed to get over 70F, but it feels quite a bit more as I walk this section. A sea breeze helps occasionally, but as the canyon heads west, the breeze is less frequent. Some parts are steep, some are loose, but the trail is good the whole way.
|The remains of tall bushes that once might have provided some shade to travelers.
|The holly-leaved cherries are out and ripening right now.
|Looking back down the connector trail, Gibraltar Road along the ridge and communications sites on the middle peaks.
I rest in the shade at the saddle just before Tunnel Trail. Finally some good shade that gives a nice, cool spot. After cooling off for a bit, I turn up Tunnel to go up to Mission Fall. The rocks of the dry fall will be fun to poke around a little and that's where the next tree is.
|The view of the ocean once in the Mission Canyon drainage.
|The cleft of rock that is, shortly after big rains, Mission Fall.
I walk out onto the rocks at the top of the fall. The last pools are gone except a slight bit of moisture in a narrow and deep hole. There are deep, horizontal holes in the sandstone at the top. After a little tour, I head up to the tree and relax on a rock that makes a good chair in its shade.
|Up on the top of the falls.
|Horizontal holes in the rocks at the top of Mission Fall.
|A look up inside one of the horizontal holes in the rocks at the top of the fall.
I head back down again once it has started to cool again. This is also when the sun started to peek out below the branches of the tree to get to my spot on the rock. Down in slightly less heat is much easier than up in the full blast of sun. Perhaps it is the angle of the sun, but the air seems much clearer now, too. There is some fog low on the islands, but otherwise details can be made out.
|The remains of these poles are all along Tunnel, including one stump of a square pole in the sandstone next to the fall. This most complete one is near the junction.
Coming up, I thought I could see trail along the ridge on the other side of the canyon. I also found a couple trails, but they may be no more than animal trails. A cut branch may signal no more than some human wanting to go down it once. I look at it coming down, but it really looks like an animal trail that someone has done some cutting on, at least at the very start. A few feet later, another trail branches off looking even more like an animal trail. As I examine the ridge for trail, I realize that where I think there might be one along it changes from different angles, so likely there isn't much of anything along there.
|A bit of trail that is likely an animal trail found on the east side of the saddle next to the junction.
|As always, there are plenty of lizards. I eve saw one that wasn't yet 2 inches long but had already lost a bit of its tail.
|The Santa Barbara Harbor and beyond it, Santa Cruz Island with a fog bank.
Along the main trail below the junction for Gibraltar or Tunnel, I find a trail heading up that looks like it sees plenty of use, although much less than the main one, so is unlikely to be just an animal trail. I don't go up it, since with resting here and there and another sketch of the coastline on the way down, it is starting to get late. Instead, I hurry down, getting there with plenty of time if not plenty of water. The day was a little hot for going out with just 2.5 liters. Cooler days should be coming.

Steve Gerber -- I check my email almost first thing every morning, and this morning the first thing I read was an email from Alex Ness telling me writer Steve Gerber had died. Alex wanted to know if I had any thoughts about Mr. Gerber, and I do, but I wish they were deeper and better-informed.
My earliest memories of Steve Gerber's work were in the 1970s, reading his Defenders and Howard the Duck runs. For me, they anticipated my later experiences with some of Alan Moore's writing, in that Gerber's were obviously good comics being written by a very smart guy, but I was a little too young and far too unformed as a thinking human being to be able to fully process their wonders.
Gerber was a genuine hero of creator's rights, being one of the first to stand up and call bullshit on the egregious work-for-hire system; he wrote Destroyer Duck in an effort to continue his battle, and I bought it, at the time not fully aware of how deep the unfairness of the North American corporate superhero comic book system went; mostly I bought it because it was not published by Marvel or DC, and at the time I was just beginning to realize the very best comics were almost always going to come from other publishers, so in my way, again a little too young to fully understand the implications of the book, I supported what Gerber and friends were trying to do. And there's no question whatever progress has been made in recognizing the rights of comic book creators came in large part because of Steve Gerber and his enormous will to fight.
I mentioned that like Alan Moore's work, I didn't always "get" Gerber; unlike with Moore, I didn't really keep trying. Eventually the nuance and wonder found in most of Alan Moore's writing clicked with me, as I grew older and more patient and appreciative of nuance and skill. But when asked to talk about Gerber, beyond Defenders and Ducks Howard and Destroyer, it's hard for me to recall what else Gerber did. I'm embarrassed under the circumstances to admit I fairly hated the first issue of Gerber's Hard Time but given the acclaim the book later got and the shallowness of my review, it may very well be another case of Gerber being too smart for me, and me just not being ready.
I guess I recognized this deficiency; when the Howard the Duck Omnibus was announced, I reflected on how I would dearly love to go back and re-read those stories with an additional three decades of life experience to inform my reading experience. But I decided not to buy it on the grounds that the Omnibus volumes are extremely expensive and thus something not already within my personal canon of great comics is unlikely to be bought, at the risk of hating it and having wasted enough money to buy a nearly week's groceries. After all, I bought the 75-dollar edition of Stray Toasters, and sure as hell didn't get that, either.
If I have a point, I guess it's this: I don't think I'm dumb, and sometimes I get caught thinking of myself as fairly intelligent. But writers like Alan Moore and Steve Gerber always made me feel like there were smarter people than me creating comics, and there's a kind of reassurance in that, like sleeping on the backseat while Mom and Dad take care of the driving and keep you safe. There are no Alan Moores or Steve Gerbers at Marvel and DC anymore, no one whose work makes me feel dumb or inadequate or like I have a bit more growing up to do before I can appreciate the complexity of their thought processes. Instead, I feel like no one's driving the damn car at all.
We need smart people like Steve Gerber writing comics. We need many smart people like Steve Gerber, and instead this morning, we have one less. So, Steve, I didn't always appreciate you as much as I should have, but I knew it was me, not you, and I wish you were still here to make me feel like I still have something to learn about life, and about comics.
Tributes to Steve Gerber can be found at the blogs of Mark Evanier, Roger Green and Tom Spurgeon.

in your opinion, whats a good utric to start with?
in your opinion, whats a good utric to start with?
They say if you play a Microsoft CD backwards, you hear satanic messages. Thats nothing, cause if you play it forwards, it installs Windows.
U. sandersonii & bisquamata seem to be bombproof, even for a newbie like me. Would you like some for trade?
i started with livida. sandersonii is also a good one. lateriflora spreads real nice for me. tricolor spread easily but is a real pain to get to flower. actually i really havent found a difficult terrestrial species yet. some are harder to get to flower or spread slowly but they are rather easy to grow. as far as easy to grow AND flower i would go with livida, sandersonii and if Jim recomends bisquamata than that one too. i havent had bisquamata for very long and havent flowered it but it is spreading quite quickly for me.
cervid serial killer
Know guns, know peace, know safety. No guns, no peace, no safety
I didn't get stimulated but he kept his promise on change, that's about all I got left!
one plant i don't reccomend is Subulata, unless you want it taking over your other pots. it's like a plague, i tell you! it's so easy to grow that it's hard to erradicate.
I would recommend U. blanchetii, it's just as easy to grow and flower as sandersonii and livida, but with more colourful flower. It makes a nice change from the standard beginners' species. If you can stand to wait a bit longer for flowers, try U. dichotoma, U. flaccida, U. prehensilis or U. odorata. All have flowered reliably for me in a terrarium. U prehensilis will twine around a support, and U. odorata has a oddly sweet smell.
id say sandersonii, or livida there both my very first and are growin pretty well

I've recently discovered that my 5 year old son is excellent at math. Not excellent as in "he can add 2 + 2", but excellent as in he did multiplication by 9 in the car on the way to school this morning. Don't get me wrong; it's great that he has an interest and aptitude toward mathematics. I intend to nurture and foster that gift so that he'll have every opportunity available to him. My issue is, I SUCK at math.
I got a 1200 on my SAT, but 710 of that was on the language side. In college, I had to start off on a 5 credit hour remedial algebra course that didn't even count toward my GPA. I got a C in the class. Next up was Calculus 101, one of 4 required calculus courses for my engineering degree. I failed it. I took it again in the fall. Got a D. I skipped it for spring (my psyche needed a break), and took it for the 3rd time in the summer. Got a B, but only because my professer, Dr. Cover, was a raging alcoholic, and would frequently come to class still drunk from an all-nighter at the local strip club. On those days, he'd give an imaginary pop-quiz, and give us all A's. That way we wouldn't complain to Administration. Needless to say, I didn't learn any calculus. Feeling bold, I took Calculus 102, which bitch-slapped me and questioned my manhood. I wisely dropped the course before failing it outright. During that same period, I took Physics 101, another required course, and a course based mostly on calculus. I think it was friends with Calc 102, because I failed it so bad, the professor pulled me aside one day and said "You know, I've had people NOT take tests and do better than you do. You should consider another major." Naturally, being a prideful man, I took that as a challenge. And naturally, my F fit in well with the others I received for calculus. So what did I do? I took it again. And failed it again. At that point, I realized that anything math-related wasn't for me. I got my degree in English 2 and a half years later.
As a result of my failures, I feel completely ill-equipped to handle his increasingly difficult math queries. Yeah, it's cool now with the "What's 9 times 7, Daddy? Is it 63?" questions. But what the hell am I going to do when he comes home with one of these in his back pocket?
Maybe Dr. Cover is available for tutoring – because I'll need it.

AMES — It felt like it was supposed to happen.
Iowa State (11-7, 2-5 Big 12) wasn't expected to beat No. 8 Texas Tech (15-4, 4-3 Big 12) on Saturday in Hilton Coliseum, especially after the 23-point drubbing the Cyclones took at the hands of No. 25 TCU on Wednesday.
But after Iowa State beat the Raiders 70-52, they felt like it was supposed to happen — even with the 18-point margin of victory, which is the largest margin ever over an AP Top-10 team in program history.
After the win, the Cyclones weren't celebrating or beating their chests. After all, Iowa State is 20-7 against ranked teams in the last seven years in Hilton.
But this is a young, inexperienced team. It wasn't expected, but they acted like it was.
"You can't get too low on losses and you can't get too high on wins," Nick Weiler-Babb said. "We didn't play very well at TCU and we were upset and mad about that for one day. But the next day, we had to get back in the gym and grind. After a win like this, you have to get back in the gym and get ready to watch film. We have another great team coming up."
After the TCU game, head coach Steve Prohm held a team meeting. He said a lot of coaches would've ranted and raved after a beatdown like the one the Cyclones got at TCU.
That isn't Prohm's style.
"It was to let them understand what this thing is really about, and at the core, your foundation has to be really good," Prohm said. "That's what we're really trying to re-establish because that's an every-day teaching assignment for us.
"I really let them know, at the end of the day, we have to play for each other, and the most special teams I've been around, it's been about investment. I'm invested in them, I'll do anything these guys need from me. And I want them invested in me likewise."
Iowa State showed that on Saturday. The Cyclones held a nine-point lead at halftime. But in just 3 minutes, 30 seconds, Texas Tech had a one-point lead, 35-34.
The Cyclones had an opportunity to fold, but Prohm called a timeout and got his guys re-engaged.
"It's a different team, it's a youthful team to where there is time and score situations that we have to do a great job with," Prohm said. "But there are also moments where it can flip, and not yell and scream, but just to re-establish, 'Hey guys, they have 29 points and 15 are off second-chance. We're doing a great job in half-court defense, can you be great in transition and can you box out and make toughness plays?'
"We get down 35-34 and then we took the lead 36-35 and I don't know if we looked back from there. We had to do that, we needed to get those guys right."
"We just had to take that punch and take that hit and throw it right back at them," Weiler-Babb said.
Iowa State built its lead to 21 points after Texas Tech's surge to open the second half.
"We fought and we clawed," Weiler-Babb said. "They came in here, and we know they play physical, so we matched that. Coming in here and getting a win like this is something we talked about and I know coach is proud of us for that."
Even in their youth, Texas Tech coach Chris Beard said Iowa State's starting five is, "The best starting five in the Big 12."
They just need to find that consistency Prohm always talks about.
"We really challenged them on where we're at, where we want to be and how we want to grow," Prohm said. "The difference, at the end of the day, was not making or missing shots – I was proud of how they competed. We have a good group, we just have to keep getting better and see where we're at when the season ends.
"We all have to max-out our roles for this year's team to be great. And we can be."

I found this little wooden boat on the Potomac river in Virginia. The boat had been left at the shore line until the bottom rotted out and it settled to the bottom of very shallow water. Tall water grass was growing through the bottom liking it to a big marine flower pot. It seemed so beautiful that I could not resist. I hope you enjoy.

Liberal mojo helps draw candidates out of the woodwork
Recruiters have no trouble finding would-be MHAs as next election draws closer
Just three years after struggling to find candidates in the last general election, Newfoundland and Labrador's Liberals are dealing with a very different problem: dealing with a surplus of would-be MHAs.
No less than a dozen potential candidates are competing for the Liberal nomination in the Conception Bay district of Port de Grave, which is currently held by Tory Glenn Littlejohn but historically held by the Liberals.
"Everybody wants to come out now and be a Liberal so it seems, but it bodes well for the party," she said.
At last weekend's convention in Gander, many potential candidates networked and obtained training for the next election, which will have to be held within a year of Frank Coleman taking over the leadership of the governing Progressive Conservatives next month.
The situation is a far change from the October 2013 election when the party had to put staffers on the ballot in some districts in order to ensure there was a full slate.
'Never seen this much interest'
Paul Antle, the St. John's businessman who placed second in last year's provincial leadership race, said recruiting candidates is much easier now.
"I never thought I would ever see anything like this," said Antle.
"In the history of our province, I've never seen this much interest in nominations as I've seen just in this last two or three months."
The Liberals have already started nominating candidates, with the first candidates coming from the existing caucus.
Another nomination battle is looming in the central Labrador electoral district of Lake Melville, which the Tories have held since forming the government in 2003. Tory backbencher Keith Russell is completing his first term.
Lori Dyson, who wants to compete for the Liberal nomination, thinks the party can take it back.
"There could be half a dozen people looking for the nomination and people are saying it's probably going to be harder to win the nomination than the actual election," said Dyson, who is married to Torngat Mountains MHA Randy Edmunds.
The Liberals plan to announce more nominations during the summer.

Chapter 30: Quick Escape
Even though there was an ethanol stove on the kitchen table, Liu Gan wasn't able to find any ethanol or kerosene canister to fuel it with. Otherwise, he would've gladly prepared and cooked himself a pack of noodles. Then, it would've finally resembled a real meal. If only there were steamy soup to drink with his ramen, that would be the best. No matter how many biscuits one ate, it would never feel like a proper meal. It looked like it wouldn't be possible to cook ramen tonight – maybe next time.
The living conditions in this world were unimaginably harsh. Having the ability to eat a meal that's steaming hot was something that he could only hope for.
As Liu Gan was chatting with Pan Hua, LuLu just kept drinking water and eating the biscuits. It was evident that her psychological status had yet to revert back to normal, since she still had a frightened and detached look on her face. Before she had joined the game, she'd been a famous and beautiful female broadcaster, so in everyone else's eyes she was the classic model of a female geek and a decent girl. In all of her nineteen years alive, she'd never once slept overnight outside. Not to mention the current inappropriate situation tonight where she had to sleep with two guys in the same house.
However, she had to sleep under the same roof as the two guys in the house, even more so within the same room. To her, Pan Hua was acceptable because he was her fan, had a nice personality, and had been taking care of her. The issue for her was Liu Gan, who was so temperamental – he could even be violent enough to kill right in front of them.
The only fact that allowed LuLu to sleep better was that Liu Gan rarely looked at her. Even when he did, the way he looked at her was no different from how he looked at other people. Luckily this was the case, because if he'd had any alternative thoughts, all he needed to do was use his brute strength to force her. She was completely ready to commit suicide if that were to happen.
"You guys… If we were to die inside the game like Wang ChangShun, would we be able to return to the real world?" LuLu chimed in on the conversation. She was thinking of finding a way out of this game.
"You can try. If you do decide to use that method to leave this game, I can help you with it – it'll be quick and painless." Liu Gan displayed his axe in front of LuLu.
LuLu instantly hesitated, everything she had experienced so far was too real. Even though the room was very dimly lit from the outside, she could still see the shine reflected on the axe. Thinking about the moment when the red-haired player was struck on the back of his head by the flying axe, made her lose all thoughts of suicide.
In addition, if they were to die here, would they really die?
"LuLu don't think like that! We must work hard to survive. There are several hundred thousands of players who, like us, are trapped here. With an issue this urgent, the government must be taking action. They'll force the San Xing Corporation to make an effort and have them send us help." Pan Hua tried his best to encourage LuLu.
One could imagine how much of an impact the sudden disappearance of several hundred thousands of players would be. It would also affect at least a hundred thousand families, so if it wasn't resolved quickly, then society would be hugely impacted. Pan Hua speculated that high ranking government officials would become extremely furious, and had probably already started an investigation of the San Xing Corporation. The first step would be the arrest of all the executives of San Xing Corporation, as well as to think of a rescue plan to extract the trapped players.
"Rescue? How would they rescue us? I feel like this whole game is a conspiracy. We, the trapped players, are just the test subjects of San Xing Corporations. We didn't enter the game-world of [The Trembling World]. Instead, we were thrown into a zombie world to test us." LuLu depressingly answered Pan Hua.
"If they dared to do that, the government wouldn't let them go! These several hundred thousand players represent several hundred thousands of lives! What kind of corporation would take the lives of so many people as a joke? Do the executives at the corporation want to get the death penalty together?" Pan Hua displayed his anger in front of his idol.
"Yes! The San Xing Corporation is vile! If they dared to do this, they have balls of steel – at least enough to be this reckless!" LuLu was also getting heated in the conversation. All the misery and suffering they had experienced together was all due to the San Xing Corporation. If they were able to return to the real world, they had to demand compensation for all the damages. Their anger and frustration was very understandable.
"Boss, how do you view this matter?" Pan Hua asked Liu Gan, seeing how Liu Gan had been silent this whole time.
"I don't know, I don't care if there is a rescue or not. All that matters is that we survive. No one knows if we can escape this game if we die or not." Liu Gan shook his head, and got up to head out of the room.
This type of situation… no amount of evidence could be used to predict what actually happened. Rather than continuing this pointless debate with Pan Hua and LuLu, he would rather get a good night's sleep and recover his stamina. There might be more dangers tomorrow, so he needed to be ready.
As for if the real world would send rescue? Liu Gan's thoughts on this were very simple. These players were all unable to exit the game, so rather than expect a rescue, it would be much easier for the gaming company to just activate the logout function. So, since they hadn't done so already, this issue couldn't be that simple.
"I was at the minimart collecting a toothbrush and toothpaste. You guys don't brush before you sleep?" LuLu held up the toothbrush and toothpaste, showing them to Liu Gan and Pan Hua.
"Our water supply is limited, if we were to do that our drinking supply wouldn't last more than just a few days. So it'd be a waste for us to use it for brushing our teeth." Liu Gan thoughtfully gave LuLu his reply.
"However, not brushing one's teeth will lead to bad breath." LuLu was persistent on brushing her teeth. As a female, she couldn't resist this type of situation.
"LuLu…" Pan Hua tried his best to convince LuLu, but at the same time he was afraid that she had angered Liu Gan.
"Compared to surviving, bad breath doesn't seem like a huge problem. These zombies seem to have much worse breaths than we do, so we should be okay." Liu Gan brushed away her suggestion.
"You think this type of style is surviving? Then there's no difference from surviving than living like a beggar or like a c*ckroach. What's the point in living? Not brushing your teeth will lead to having teeth problems, prolonged issues will create bleeding. Then, one by one, they'll fall off. By that stage, even if you find food, you won't be able to eat it…" LuLu protested with her ideas to Liu Gan.
"LuLu, you won't die from not brushing your teeth. However, if you don't have water to drink, you will die…" Pan Hua was afraid of disobeying Liu Gan, so he helped discourage LuLu. If she continued, he was afraid that Liu Gan might kill her.
Liu Gan didn't reply. The air in the room tensed up.
"Boss, boss… LuLu was just suggesting it. I feel that, even if we don't brush our teeth, the remaining water could be enough to drink…" Pan Hua felt so nervous that it felt like his heart was about to burst.

Backstory Biernes #10, Friday, July 10th 2015
(Published on July 11th, 'cause I fucked up.)
If you know me, then you'll know that I love words. I don't love them in the way prescriptive grammarians love them. I love them for what they are, not for their convenience or their so-called purity. I love them for what they are, not what I want them to be. Sometimes, I will just read histories of words for hours figuring out ways to exploit them for world domination. Or in my fiction. Usually the latter.
So it was, one random day this week, I had been thinking about the word "handkerchief" and thought it had a strange structure. At first, I thought it was French since I knew the word "chief" came from French. But I was hooked. Don't ask why, just go with it.
The word comes from the 1520s from a combination of the words "hand" and "kerchief." By this time, the word chief had already entered English as meaning "head," as in that thing attached to your neck, and also as meaning "leader." And so was "kerchief," which came from "ker," or "cover," plus "chief," which I already mentioned. So the original meaning of "kerchief" was "head cover." But by the late 14th century, it came to mean basically "a personal piece of cloth with which to wipe my snotty bourgeois nose."
I know, amazing stuff. Basically, the roots of the word "handkerchief" mean, "hand head cover," which doesn't sound right, does it? And why the fuck should you care? Well, I'll leave that up to you, but I'll give you one suggestion.
The meanings of a word's roots don't always give us an indication of its modern day usage. It may not even give us insight into the language. It shows us that words are tools, blunt objects not to be revered, but used. We use them however we can to achieve whatever objectives are in front of us. It sounds weird coming from someone who write fiction. But if a writer puts too much value on individual words, we may never write them at all. Words are flexible, just like language. They change over time, and once we realize this, we free ourselves from the lexical bondage that has been oppressing us since birth! What I mean to say, is that it can make us better writers. Don't put words on pedestals. Yes, respect them, but don't revere them. You feel me?
Some other stuff I thought about the word "handkerchief."
Dropping the handkerchief as a flirtation. How the hell did this come about? That's another story entirely, but it was basically a clandestine way of flirting in Europe in the olden days when pinching nipples in public was frowned upon. At first I thought that maybe this is where "hanky-panky" came from. But I was wrong. "Hanky-panky" originally meant trickery and maybe came from hoky-poky which originally meant deception or fraud and maybe came from "hocus pocus" (which apparently comes from a common alias used by magicians, "Hocas Pocas," which is fake-Latin).
And then there's the "Hokey Pokey," the dance which apparently comes from the Scottish "Hinkumbooby" dance. Again–that's another story entirely.
I love the history of words, no matter how boring they might seem. The way they change through time can give us glimpses into the social, extra-linguistic lives that come with literature.
But let's face it. Handkerchiefs are just fancy fucking napkins.
And finally, there's this guy: Nardwuar the Human Serviette. Look him up. Apparently napkins and serviettes are two different things in certain parts of our beloved Anglosphere.
P.S. "Hand" is a verb and a noun, but who really thinks about shit like that?!
Thanks for reading my blog about stuff that happened in the past, Backstory Biernes. Maybe you'll be inspired by these words or feel like reading more of my playful delights such as, Gary Orbo – a short story.
Thanks again. Enjoy!

And then there's Skyfall, which is in many ways the opposite of Silverway.
I really love the Warhammer 40,000 universe. I've been trying to figure out why. 40K is the quintessential gothic science fiction, which I mean surprisingly literally - gothic in the sense that it combines horror, a romantic preference for evoking rather than detailing (not to mention a fixation upon its own twisted version of medievalism), melodrama, and parody. But unlike The DM, I have no particular love for gothicism. I think, for me, the thing I find most compelling about 40K is that it's endlessly deconstructible. At some point when I wasn't looking, I became a pathological deconstructionist when it comes to my sci-fi (and to a lesser extent, all my art) - I just can't stop saying, "Well actually, if you remember this tiny detail you said or implied two hundred pages/two hours ago, what you're suggesting now doesn't make sense ..."
Precisely because 40K is so gothic, one can deconstruct it in this way ad nauseum and simply be filling in the gaps, like trying to bring a pointilistic painting into photographic focus. But I also love the way 40K handles the issue of good and evil. Lots of fictional milieus have "there are no good guys" as a feature, but I think 40K does it more entertainingly than most. All the good guys in 40K can be deconstructed to be shown to be evil, and all the bad guys can be deconstructed to be shown to be good. You can be a hero in 40K and still be a terrible person.
Earlier in my life this probably would have just seemed eye-rollingly silly to me, but right now, as a Christian, I find it immensely appealing. I wouldn't call 40K Christian fiction, but I do think you can't really understand Christianity without rejecting the notion that people's essences fall on some kind of good-vs.-evil spectrum - to say that people "are" good, "are" bad, or "are" a mix of both is all to miss the point.
So anyway, I find 40K immensely appealing, but I've struggled for some time to find a way to run a roleplaying game in the 40K universe. Unlike Twilight, the immense scale of 40K doesn't appeal to my narrative sensibilities. The stories that most appeal to me, even if they have cosmic consequences or take place against the backdrop of cosmic events, are ultimately very small. In the words of Mordin Solus, "Can't anthropomorphize galaxy. But can think of favorite nephew." And although I love warfighting in the grim darkness of the 41st millennium (where, as the tagline reminds us, there is only war), I didn't think I could run a roleplaying game about soldiers without an entire party of Xenophon clones (which would be awesome, but is unlikely). I could come up with the story, but I don't think I have the right players for it.
What I finally realized was that I love looking at 40K most from the outside - and thus Skyfall was born, a game that explores what happens to the people caught in the endless wars of the grimdark. It is the 40K story I have always wanted to tell - not in terms of the plot skeleton, but in terms of how it presents the setting.
As always happens when you introduce players into a plot, actual events have not gone precisely according to script. But in a larger sense, I am immensely pleased with the oppressive sense of inferiority that pervades the game. The party consists of three individually very capable characters with a diverse range of skills, and after twenty-six sessions of gameplay one would normally expect them to be developing normal adventurers' bravura. In Silverway, for instance, the party will cheerfully tackle any challenge, even a dragon that is twice their level. To my Skyfall party, a squad of cooks presents an unthinkable challenge.
This leads to all sorts of delightful roleplaying moments, where characters - even Philippa, who in any other game would be considered quite the badass fighter - routinely do the sensible thing and run away (if that doesn't seem unusual to you, you haven't DMed enough). Nor does the party merely have a pessimistic view of its chances in a violent encounter; the whole game has a wonderfully gothic, hopeless tone to it. Everything seems like an almost insurmountable obstacle - fighting, figuring out what is going on, even moving through the rain forest (I apparently still had "green wastelands" on the brain when I chose the setting for Skyfall's opening acts).
It is extremely difficult to hammer the collective psyche of a group of players so hard that they feel their characters' helplessness, and I think Skyfall is my best hammering to date. But besides the technical achievement I think this represents (and not just on my part, mind, but the players' as well), artistically I think it ties the game together. As gothic science fiction, 40K has a heavy medieval flavor to it, and Skyfall is self-consciously set on a feudal world. In part this is because I was re-reading A Song of Ice and Fire at the start of the game, and I wanted to try my hand at a totally straight medieval setting (I've done science fantasy, near-future science fiction, Hellenistic, and Dark Ages, but never medieval), but it also blinds the characters to certain realities about wider galactic society that the republican players are less blind to, and I think part of the DM's art is to manage the gap between player and character perspective to create dramatic irony.
I'm also really very pleased with how much people are enjoying Skyfall's dearth of combat. I never planned for the game to be combat-heavy (especially as I am running the game using Phoenix Earth rules, if the party were to engage in even semi-routine combat I would have to fudge things so much to keep them alive that it would spoil the tone of the game), and the party's own self-imposed risk aversion has even avoided some combat that might otherwise have happened. In twenty-six sessions, there have been ... I think five combat encounters, and only one of those was longer than two rounds (the party combatants also unequivocally lost three of them). The entire rest of the game has been nothing but ... well, living. This was a major structural experiment for me: not only to play a game with much more roleplaying than combat, but also to play a game in which the mundane features heavily. In Skyfall, the conversation a maid has with her lady while combing out her hair at night or the silent barbs traded over a family dinner are fairly significant "on-camera" events. To my great relief, nobody has been bored. Quite the opposite, they seem to enjoy the chance to live their characters in a fuller way than usual, and I think this pays real dividends when it comes to how well players inhabit their characters in the more dramatic moments. Skyfall also hands-down wins the prize for the best use of sex in a roleplaying game that I have personally run, which I also don't think is a coincidence.
Of course, I picked the Skyfall party specifically because I wanted players I knew I could count on to immerse themselves in the lore of the game world and who were attracted to playing people, as opposed to any of the other perfectly valid reasons to roleplay. I know the lessons I've learned running Skyfall's roleplaying elements are applicable to my other games, but I'm not sure exactly how far.

Growing up, all of us kids were expected to help out in the garden. There were two primary topics of conversation in the garden. The first: "Where did all these rocks come from? I thought we cleared them all out last year." And the second: "Worms are Our Friends"
See, PJ & I both went through phases (probably repeatedly) where we were grossed out by the little guys. Dad would patiently walk us through all the beneifts the worms gave us, loosening the soil, providing fertilizer, etc.
These days I have my own yard, and the digging is done voluntarily. In all of the digging of done so far this spring, I've found worms in plenitude, and they always make me smile. Fortunately, not so many rocks.

Let's first ask a few questions:
Do we really need fats?
Fats are an energy source for the body along with proteins and carbohydrates. Fats are important in the protection of our organs, to aid the digestive process, and are particularly important for the function of the brain. Fats insulate the body from environmental conditions and preserve body heat which is why it is natural to eat more fats and proteins in times of cold weather. Some fats can actually provide energy and promote weight loss as the nutritional needs of the body are met.
What kind of fats do we need?
The best sources of fats are those that are naturally occurring in foods such as avocados and raw nuts. Many shun the avocado for its high fat content (a healthy source of fat), but are quick to snack on handfuls of corn chips (an unhealthy source of fat). The same is true with nuts. Many avoid eating nuts because of the fat content, however, the key is to eat them only raw.
What kinds of oils are good for the body?
We need monounsaturated fats which are best found in olive oil, and in most nuts. Monounsaturated fats help to lower the bad cholesterol in the body, but protect the good cholesterol from going down. These fats also help increase our resistance to cancer. Olive oil is one of the best oils to use, and is good for the body both inside and out.
We also need polyunsaturated fats which are our omega-3 and omega-6 oils. Omega-3 oils come from fatty fish such as salmon, trout and others, as well as from pumpkin seeds, walnuts, and flaxseeds, and are vital for brain and spinal functions. Deficiencies may cause Alzheimer's, schizophrenia, and hyperactivity. Omega-3 oil is also beneficial for high cholesterol levels, stroke and heart attack, high blood pressure, arthritis, multiple sclerosis, cancer, psoriasis and eczema. The omega-6 oils are found in corn, soybean, sunflower, and safflower oils. Flaxseed oil is very unique, being a great source for both the omega-3 and omega-6.
The best is kind of oils are cold pressed, as opposed to heat extracted. The process of pressing the grain, seed, or legume to extract the oil is obviously more of an entailing process. Most oils are processed by with the use of heat. The cold pressed oils will obviously be more expensive, but are much more nourishing and beneficial to the body.
Lecithin is a great fat to use particularly in breads in place of oil, as well as a binder in salad dressings. Lecithin is derived from soybeans, and is found in liquid and granular forms, as well as in capsules. Because lecithin breaks down the cholesterol in the body, it is often recommended to be taken for weight loss. In baking, use ¼ the amount you would of oil (2 Tbs. lecithin in place of ½ C. oil). If you like to be precise in measuring, use the granulated form. If you don't like to measure, just pour the liquid to eyeball measure (never measure it).
What oils we do not need!
Fats and oils that we don't need are: cotton seed oil, shortenings, margarine, fried foods, and any heat extracted oils. Hydrogenated oils such as shortening and margarine are not good fats. In the hydrogenated process, hydrogen is used to break down the double bonds in the fat, thus making it into a solid state. The sequence of firmness in the hydrogenation process goes something like this: margarine, to shortening, to wax, to plastic. So if you eat margarine or shortening, it's just a few steps away from being wax or plastic. Imagine what it might be doing to you arteries! Most corn and potato chips, French fries, and other fried foods are usually fried in hydrogenated oils because the shelf life will be longer. Keep in mind also that even "organic chips" are usually fried! Look for "baked" organic chips for a better alternative, or better yet, choose rice cakes, whole grain crackers, or even better - vegetable sticks!
In conclusion....
There are fats that work with the body providing essential and nourishing properties, while there are many other fats that work against the body which are toxic and clogging agents. Focusing on the raw foods, raw nuts and oils is a first step, then omitting hydrogenated fats, processed foods, and fried foods, will eliminate most of the poor fats. You will be amazed how much better you feel and look!

What Kind of Fats do You Need for Great Health?

One of my New Years resolutions was to stop buying and start getting some use out of the products I currently have. Well, half way through the year and I am just now starting to "Shop My Stash". Here are few products that I recently rediscovered.
Hourglass Veil Mineral Primer ~ Not sure why I am just now falling in love, but I am falling hard. We weren't the best of friends when I first picked this up. I thought it was "OK", a little drying, and wasn't quite sure what the hype was about. Now I think this is a beautiful primer. Lightweight and silky, it helps smooth the skin, preparing it for whatever base you choose to use. For some reason I no longer find it drying, it helps keep oil at bay, but doesn't dry my skin out. If this continues to work well into the Fall and Winter, I think a full size will definitely make it into my makeup drawer.
Diorskin Nude Foundation in 060 ~ Another product that I wasn't a fan of when I first purchased. I recently whipped this back out again to give it another try, and its such a nice foundation, I am actually surprised this doesn't have more hype around it. Aside from the beautiful packaging, the actual product is a dream to work with. It blends into the skin effortlessly leaving you with a beautiful glow. I definitely wouldn't say this is in the "dewy" category of foundations. It's more of a semi-matte formula that leaves the skin radiant with medium coverage that could be built up to full.
Laura Mercier Mineral Pressed Powder in Warm Chestnut ~ This is really similar to MAC's Mineralized Skinfinish with just a bit more coverage. Great product to use as a foundation, and light enough to use as a setting powder.
NARS Dolce Vita and Smashbox Blush Rush in Heartbreak ~ Dolce Vita is freaking amazing! Ummm I am literally about to pick up the lipstick and lip gloss in this color as well. For some one who wasn't a fan of NARS Blushes, I can officially say I have been converted and I am now a believer. Smashbox's Heartbreak was a pleasant surprise, a beautiful peachy mauve color with a subtle gold shimmer that gives your cheeks a beautiful glow.
Bobbi Brown Long- Wear Gel Eyeliner in Graphite Ink ~ I am currently into gray eyeliner right now thanks to this little pot.
Maybelline Color Tattoo in Rich Mahogany ~ A deep reddish brown bronze base color that gives the eyes a beautiful summer time smokiness.
YSL Rouge Volupte in #25 ~ Love the formula of these lipsticks and this peachy brown nude is just perfect.
What have you recently rediscovered?

Damien Mulley - Social Media Consultant
Do companies need consultants to help them with their social media?
I think we've finally reached a threshold where everyone accepts nearly everyone is on social media and that if used right, it can help a business. In fact nowadays, some of what I do when I work with companies is row them back on their head first dive into social media and have them re-evaluate what they're actually doing on social media. It is good to get someone outside of your own company bubble who has experience dealing with hundreds of companies and their social media who has a record of being very honest and direct about what works and doesn't work. Spoiler: Spend more on your website (time and resources) and less on social. BTW, backstory to this website at the end of this page.
I'd like to help make your company perform better
When you work with me and it really at times is a joint project, I try and get you to outline what you business objectives are and sometimes change them. After this, I work on figuring out what areas of social media will work best for these business objectives. With that step we look at the best way to create social media content for the right social media spaces for you. I try and then educate you on what resources are needed and show you how to automate as much of this as possible. See this
Digital Strategy Plan
I put together.
Stop working for Facebook and Twitter, make them work for you
Many companies are putting a lot of time and money to manage their Facebook and Twitter but what are you getting back? Is it generating sales? Is it generating leads? Is it changing perceptions? This can be measured. If you are entertaining people on Facebook and Twitter but nothing more than you work for these social networks. Instead make them work for you, make them drive traffic, sales and leads. For example, is a single serving website to show that even a simple webpage, that's been coded using a simple text editor can rank well in Google for certain phrases if the strategy to do this is well considered. Maybe it's your website more than social media you ought to be fixing up?

Happy Friday, y'all!
Let's get right down to it! I have been showing some love to a lot of different things this week, and I decided that I would share them with all of you lovely-dovely people! Away we go!
1. American Horror Story | Not gunna lie, I only watched it this week because I knew Adam Levine was going to be guest starring. I don't pass up any opportunity to see that man on my television screen, no sir. So, when I tuned I was slightly shocked at how...well...risque the entire scene he was in was. I did watch, entertained, and then when his little camio for the moment ended, I just began to watch the entire episode. Oh Heavens. It was amazeballs. It's so creepy and weird and dark, I fell in love with the show. That will totally be one of my new Wednesday night shows!
2. Glamour Magazine | I only bought the magazine because my twinnie Taylor Swift is on the cover looking completely gorgeous and lovely. I read the article and Tay is just the sweetest little thing and adorable. And all of the pictures of her were flawless, b-dubs!
3. Michael Buble Albums | I love this man, I really do. If I could, I would have him sing me Frank Sinatra songs all night long until I went to sleep. His voice is like velvet and I feel like the heavens are opening up and angels are also joining him in song. Beautiful man, beautiful songs, beautiful time listening to his music.
4. Blogger | I have been addicted to blogger. I mean, not that I previously wasn't, but now that I am posting more and finding and connecting with more people, I have found myself always on whether I am tweeking some things on my own blog or I am reading some other wonderful ladies' blogs, I am just having a grand old time on here!
5. Iced Coffee | God, I thank you for this beautiful creation. It's no secret that I don't love coffee, but I have been drinking iced all this week. No hot coffee for this lady! I usually drink hot in the winter but the whether has been so cray-cray this past week I have been doing up the iced. Also, thanks to my cute friend from work, he bought me my favorite iced coffee as a thank you. What a sweetie pie! He already has the key to my heart. Because the way to my heart is a nice coffee. Mmmhhhmm!
6. Pandora Radio | Just go stinking listen! You will find so many songs and artists you didn't even know existed. Expand your horizons for a day!
7. Graham Cracker Goldfish | I found these little guys when I was walking through Target this week. They were on sale, had low calories and sugar, so I decided to give them a shot. They are so stinking yummy! I am pretty sure the package is almost done. Oooops! Can I blame the dog for that one?
Have a lovely Friday, ladies!

According to the Wii, I have lost 4 pounds. That was since it last weighed me 128 days ago, but recently I was at 124 and am down to 197! That is 7 pounds since the last time I was weighed at the MD last month! I am doing a happy dance and have to think that my decision to stop drinking soda and work out with the Wii has helped. I did some yoga today, but that really bothered my back. I did some work on my balancing and that seemed to be where I needed to be today. I am going to try and get to the Y tomorrow and walk the treadmill. I just have to remember to take it easy or I will pay for it later.
Cheryl and I talked and we agreed that I can't go into this with wanting to lose weight, but rather to be healthier. And that is what I really want. To be healthier. I am only going to gain weight back and be angry that I am depriving myself. Whoever gave me the tip to drink seltzer with flavor in it was a genius! That has worked for me really well.
So, I will be posting a lot about my journey to health. Last night our Sacred Circle met and had great discussion. I have some interesting home work to do for that for next month and I am really going to love it. I love going there. It's really a great group of women that I feel I have bonded to really well. I can talk with them about anything!
So, check back often for more updates. I am heading off to the sewing room to start working on Katie's sit upon for Girl Scouts. Shouldn't take me too long and with the new CD/Ipod player that Cheryl bought me for Christmas that plays excellently. I love the music coming out of there and when you play your Ipod on Shuffle you never know what you are going to hear!
I am still reading the Maximum Ride books by James Patterson. I am on The Final Warning. They are a great short read, more for teens, but I really like them. I have one more after this one and then a new one comes out in March. I need to make a dent on my piles upstairs. Too many books, too little time!
Till tomorrow!

In 2017, the Arboretum's Seasonal Landscape Exhibits program focuses on plants and nesting sites for butterfly species. Throughout the gardens where seasonally-planted landscapes and container gardens are located, the plants selected in those gardens supports foods – both pollen and nectar – for insects with a focus on butterflies. Some plantings also demonstrate nesting or home sites for pollinators. The Arboretum's recently rebuilt Quilt Garden is designed using a "Butterfly" quilt block pattern, which supports and calls attention to the life cycle and biology behind beloved butterflies, including the Monarch.
Horticulture Industry IPM Symposium
Pesticide Credits available for this event from North Carolina, South Carolina and Tennessee.
