The Saturdays have released their new single Disco Love today and just like this entire era, it has no relation to their past singles. As someone who liked Gentleman, (party of one?), I was saddened by how it flopped. Disco Love is a 180 from Gentleman just as every single has been in this sloppy 4th album era.
The Saturdays have never had their own identity. With this 4th album era, it's gotten more obvious (and brilliant) than ever: What About Us flawlessly ripped off early Rihanna, Gentleman was a total Girl Aloud Chemistry out-take, 30 Days was Xenomania-Lite, and Disco Love continues that legacy by ripping off two artists signature style at once! New queens!
The song is a k-pop esque cluster fuck of lite Brave Brothers signature style mid-tempo disco cheese, mixed with a more modern up-tempo pop sound. It's pretty flawless stuff. The jazzy sax and the 70s funky bass mixed with the 90s style R&B is a total rip off of the musical trend that has swept k-pop for nearly 2 years now, (many sections of the song are reminiscent of After School's First Love and Sistar19's Gone Not Around Any Longer). It's all very If-Britney-Did-Kpop.
Speaking of queen B, the song lyrics are more about Iconey than disco itself. "You take me back in time, to 1999; we hear the DJ playing 'Hit Me Baby One More Time'" they sing over a jazzy beat. Yes bitches, bow to the HBIC, (head Britney in charge). Their "baby baby baby" sections, (which are an equivalent to Brave Brothers "na na na" sections in similar sounding kpop songs), are also an ode to multiple Britney tracks. Slay!
In my review for The Wanted's latest release I mentioned how they were in a rut. The Saturdays seem to be in a rut with staying cohesive, but it's kind of working for them. Disco Love is a very solid effort. Slayturdays are on a total roll!

Cruising Along
This past week I was able to purchase a motorbike and it is such a blessing to have!! It's a Honda Wave -manual (for all you boys out there). It's different riding it as I have never driven one before, but easy to learn and so much fun! I am especially grateful for having it as we are coming up to the hottest part of the year here, as well as the rainy season. Walking was great exercise and I enjoyed it, but I am grateful for the provision of the bike!! I never thought I would have been able to say that someday I would be cruising through the streets of Thailand on a motorbike lol!! Here's a few pics I thought you all might enjoy.

WooHoo! You look like a natural on that! Happy for you!
Love it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! So super exciting friend!!! 🙂 Miss and love you!

I taught a class on wearing shoes and hookworms at the shelter that I'm working at Tuesday. The girls really enjoyed the class and were so eager to learn and at the end I painted toenails and then the girls painted mine.
I just chipped a back tooth while eating rice that must have had a rock in it just now. Shit. NO pain so hopefully it will be OK until I get home.

I'm headed to the beach at 1:30 with Theresa and some other volunteers. We will arrive at the perfect time to watch the sunrise!

The other half of the day was spent at another volunteers house working on re-writing job descriptions, etc for CCPCR (Cambodia's Center for the Protection of Children's Rights), which is the NGO that I am working for. I also had a great dinner and the most delicious vanilla tea that I have ever had!

I can't believe that I am going on 2 weeks of being here. The time is going by way too fast!

The flight was not near as bad as I thought it was going to be and I have fallen in love with Korean Airlines. Upon arrival in Phnom Penh, I was blown away by the humidity; coming from Las Cruces, I have forgotten what rain is and definitely humidity. While riding in a tuk-tuk to my now home away from home, I was surprised at the amount of people out and about at midnight and taken back by the massive amounts of trash on the streets. The most exciting event of my first night in Cambodia was the baby mouse that crawled into my bed with my eyes as wide as plates and my body frozen, however I have grown use to and a tad bit fawn of the mice I share my room with now!

I went to Sihanoukville and spent last weekend on Serendipity Beach, which is about 3.5 hours away from Phnom Penh in a taxi van and around 5 hours in a bus. I had a very relaxing, fun time and got a little too much sun. For the first time I also had my eyebrows and legs threaded on the beach. The selling point was that I was told that my hair wouldn't grow back for at least 2 months, as I lay here and laugh 3 days later because I already need to shave my legs and pluck my eyebrows!

George Orwell described the invention of the fictitious newspeak in the novel 1984 as an attempt by the state to curtail the breadth of thought by limiting the scope of what is thinkable. While I'm skeptical that the limitations in linguistic structure necessarily limits the scope of thoughts themselves, I think it is definitely true that limiting the language does curtail the ability of the thought to spread, by making it difficult to succinctly and easily describe unorthodox thoughts that don't fit neatly into a language that only the select few are privy to.
The idea of secret lingo among conspirators is hardly new to Orwell. Secret societies (or societies that pretend to be such) have their secret codes, handshakes, and other allegedly covert means of communication. The crew of the Nautilus in 20,000 Leagues under the Sea speak in a secret language that is impenetrable to the outsiders that prompts this reaction from Ned Land.
"Don't you see, these people have a language all to themselves, a language they've invented just to cause despair in decent people who ask for a little dinner!"
The more complex, nuanced, and subtle a language is, the more impenetrable it is to the outsiders, and as such, can conceal "conspiracies" among its speakers, whether they are conspiracies of thoughts or action. Not surprisingly, many states, as part of political consolidation, sought to standardize the language. Much is made of the attempts by the Germans and the Russians, say, to suppress the Polish language or the English the Welsh. But they were contemporaneous with the standardization of the French and German languages that led to dominance of the capital dialects over their linguistic relatives. Of course, they have a precedence in the standaridization of the written Chinese language by the First Emperor.
The penetrability to the outsiders and inability to express subtle, complex, and nuanced thoughts, of course, are also the characteristics that make a language easier for Google Translate and its relatives. Here, the infiltrator is not the language police from Moscow or Berlin, or even the agents of INGSOC, but something that is literally not even human and does not care to think like a human does, but abides only by a massively complex but quite simple-minded at the same time pattern recognition algorithm. Yet, it is also becoming the standard tool of the international business, politics, and other formal transactions. Documents will have to be generated increasingly in a manner that makes subtleties and complexities difficult. At least in the legal-diplomatic-business realms, the public sphere, if you will, words and concepts will have to be defined in a manner that purges such complexities as well. Even if "true" thoughts, taking places inside people's minds, may remain complex, nuanced, and subtle, they cannot be in the open. This is reminiscent, if less complete, of the world of newspeak, as it achieves essentially the same aim. "Subversive" thoughts, not for its contents per se, but for their complexity and "difficulties" are to be stamped out. Without a language suitable for their expression, they will be reduced to the status of a boutique dead language among bitter enders, like Sorbian or Ligurian, incomprehensible beyond a handful of specialists.
Perhaps this is a bit of an extreme example: for all its influence, Google Translate is not the ultimate arbiter of human language, for far too many linguistic transactions still take place without intermediaries. But the analogue is that, once "data analysis" becomes the language of transactions–and Google Translate is an applied form of simple-minded (conceptually) even if massively complex (in terms of moving parts) "data analysis"–the underlying assumptions, especially when they are not properly understood, becomes part of commonly accepted "obvious common sense" taken for grounded without a second thought, even if they are ultimately wrong, misguided, or incomplete. If you will, the users of the lingo are initiated into the cargo cult by partaking in its initiation rituals through the (implied) profession of faith in its assumptions.
One example that I became intimately familiar with is the exploding use of (simple) unidimensional models for everything in politics that accompanied the increasing popularity of DW-Nominate and its relatives that allegedly measure "ideology." The short answer is that, DW-Nominate has nothing direct to do with "ideology." They identify patterns in recorded votes that take place in a legislature. All the talk about polarization in Congress, captured by DW-Nominate, is that the votes are predictable–most taking place along the party line, and those who "defect" between them, if there are any–rare nowadays–are readily identifiable. Could this say something about ideology, inside people's minds? Probably, since some people vote their "ideology" some of the time. But it is hardly the only thing: many subtle politics go into shaping votes in Congress, and all instances of subtle politics are different. So we don't know what exactly they are simply by glancing quickly at the data, other than they exist and they account for, collectively, whatever percentage of the observed voting behavior.
But "lack of explanation" is not an explanation to many audiences. When presented with the data that shows "not explained," they can respond, correctly, "so you don't know?" (and I speak to this from actual experience). We have to focus on what it is that we CAN explain, and that is the obvious pattern, the whole "polarization" angle: where the Democrats vote like Democrats and Republicans vote like Republicans. It used to be that the "moderates" who switched back and forth between them were relatively numerous and somewhat predictable (this is where a lot of nuance and details help with the explanation, but not with the "final answer."), the main result of polarization is driven by most Democrats voting like Democrats most of the time and vice versa for the Republicans, with very few exceptions. To the degree that we have accepted the assumption behind DW-Nominate, willingly or otherwise, by using these measures, we are naturally drawn to the explanation that legislators today are more "ideological" than they were before.
It is not necessarily a bad answer: that the legislators are voting party mostly means that the old "subtle" politics, at least of the variety that ran counter to simple party-line voting, are increasingly going by the wayside. We might not know what "ideology" is exactly, it is becoming the big deal. But does this mean that the subtle politics are insignificant? That I think is a dangerous oversight–after all, in 2016 election, most voters probably did vote party, but an electorally significant minority that happened to be concentrated geographically did not and, for all their sparseness, that made all the difference. By drawing focus on the obvious and the more easily quantifiable, the focus on the "data analysis" blinds us to the subtleties, whether in politics, markets, or the language. On average, it probably would not matter–in the short term. But there will be times when it blows up in our faces.
Furthermore, the lack of attention to the not-so-easily quantifiable also shapes the strategies of the political (and other) actors. I don't think the heresthetic style of Trump (and Sanders) in 2016 were necessarily by chance. We had seen this before, in the world of baseball, in form of the 2014 and 2015 Royals. A number of commentators pointed out that, contra the apparent disdain for "moneyball" type strategy by the Royals, they were in fact taking a "moneyball," strategy, by focusing on the characteristics that were being underinvested and underinvestigated. I think that is a bit misleading as a characterization. Stats like OBP are easy to calculate with great reliability. Defense, base-running, and even pitching effectiveness are harder to quantify reliably. Precisely because the latter are not easily quantifiable, quantitative analysis of baseball tend to be a bit more careful about them. (I realize that saber people will have an issue with this–but I think I can say with confidence that anyone who thinks that defense stats should be taken multiple grains of salt are nuts). The argument is right that the more obvious and more reliable stats will be more quickly monetized and the opportunity for arbitrage wiped out speedily. Utilizing the less reliable, harder to quantify stats require both heavier reliance on old fashioned baseball know-how and not inconsiderable risk-taking, which I think fairly characterizes the Royals' strategy last few years, which paid off in 2014 and 2015, but not so much in 2016. (This is, of course, what lay behind Michael Milken's junk bond strategy too, in a sense–not-so-easily quantifiable are inherently uncertain and thus risky, you can mitigate the risk somewhat by a bit of specific knowledge, and you can make it big by taking on bigger risk.) Like the Royals, Trump had a bit of old fashioned political sense that has come to be dismissed by the new political quants (it is telling that an old fashioned Midwestern politician, Bob Dole, should have been the only former Republican presidential candidate to formally endorse Trump, for old fashioned political reasons.) and took on a big risk, even if of calculated variety.
In this sense, perhaps the real risk is not that we will be unable to think subversive thoughts at all, with the rise of the modern newspeak, but that we will be trapped increasingly in our linguistic bubble, our version of the fictional Nautilus, captained by a madman for reasons that make sense only to ourselves, without becoming aware of the world
PS. I thought about what I wrote earlier about what DW-Nominate does not predict and the "subtle" politics and thought about how this might be captured. Generally, presidential voteshare in a house district and the DW-Nominate score of the incumbent representing it are reasonably correlated. One can capture the "presidential votes" that "should" take place by regressing the actual presidential voteshare and DW-Nominate scores (signs suitably changed to reflect left and right) and predicting the y-value, the creating a measure of surplus by examining the difference between this predicted value and the actual votes for incumbent House members running for reelection. (this is a bit silly and crude–but hey, I'm doing this on the fly). Comparing these "surpluses" to the standard errors on first dimensional DW-Nominate scores (as a measure of what is not captured by the scores), yields the following graphs.
For the entire period between 1946 and 2010 (the data I have immediately available cuts off at 2010):
It is worth noting that the errors yield more votes in more recent years, when party labels actually become more meaningful:
Contrast the period after 1995 (a semi-arbitary cutoff, admittedly).
and the period before.
Of course, being "weird" stands more when everyone else is alike. When everyone is already different in their own ways, the congressman/woman is being just like "everyone" when he/she is "different." So the KC Royals strategy is already paying more dividends now than before.

This is a video of my youngest, Jibreel, hopping on his knees. Unlike most toddlers, rather than crawling, this was his preferred mode of transportation. 🙂 I've been trying for MONTHS to get this on camera but something always happens (I need to recharge, can't find my camera, etc). Now that he walks, he doesn't do it much (and he's actually not as quick as he used to be.)
Anyway, enjoy 🙂

The past weekend was spent with wonderful friends at our annual retreat. There was lots of spinning and knitting and some really great food. The weather was very cool and we had wind and rain. Perfect for wearing wool socks and woolies. Although a bit cool and damp for spinning on the deck. So many laughs that my sides are still sore. My cheeks hurt too come to think of it. My daughter in law tried her hand at spinning using a crochet hook to get the feel of twisting. I did not have my twisty stick with me nor did Cheryl. So I improvised with a tip from an oak branch tip that I found on the deck while Cheryl made some hook sticks from a coat hanger. It is from plastic coated wire and about 8 inches long.
Kelley soon decided to try with a spinning wheel. She borrowed a Lendrum and got the hang of things pretty quickly. In a short while she had a singles skein to take home. It is wonderful that my daughter in law wants to learn to spin. However, I may be creating a monster. She is a massage therapist and does massage during our retreat weekends. The gals may be upset with me if Kelley would rather spin than do massages. Ha.

Grapevine Archive for Midi
Growing Grey in the SunPosted by: | Comments
Spring has sprung in the Roussillon, prompting Katie Jones of Domaine Jones to share her enthusiasm for the season of renewal. Hers is a pocket handkerchief estate making three lovely wines. Her white is outstanding and is made from the Grenache gris, locally prized for its ageing capacity but unknown anywhere else.
'The more I work with this grape variety the more I like it. It is a little frightening though as the grapes are pink and the juice when the grapes are pressed is bright orange, so I am always amazed by the lovely pale colour of the final wine. Grenache Gris makes some of the best white wines from this area of southern France and is often blended with other local grapes. Mine is not blended but exclusively Grenache Gris.
So why are my Grenache Gris special? They are 80 years old, they are planted on black slate soils and therefore they produce a very limited amount of grapes. The low productivity of my vines gives great depth and concentration to the final wine. It also means that the root structure is so well established that they don?t suffer from summer drought.
It still makes me smile that I almost didn?t buy this vineyard. Monsieur Bourrell who sold it to me forgot to mention that half of the vineyard was planted with Grenache Gris and not the red Grenache noir that I was expecting. As he took the grapes to the local cooperative, it didn?t matter to him that half the grapes were white. When I told him that I wasn?t sure that I still wanted to buy his vineyard he told me it wasn?t a problem – I could just mix it all together and make the traditional sweet dessert wine from Maury!
Not on your nelly, Monsieur Bourrell.'
Here at The Society we still need to wait for the 2011 but a small quantity of the 2010 (ref FC22301) is still available to order. To do so, please call Member Services on 01438 740 222.

News from the MidiPosted by: | Comments
Just back from an exhilarating week in the Midi, taking in most points between Faugères and Bandol, finishing up in the northern Rhône and a first look at the 2010s.
The first thing to say was that it was very hot and that everywhere the vines are at least two weeks ahead of schedule. The vines are in full flower and the predictions are for a good size crop. Last year, the 2010 harvest, was very late, often picking in October. These early indications suggest that 2011 will be early, maybe late August for the northern Rhône, maybe earlier for parts of the Languedoc.
Another 2003 type vintage? Not in the south, or at least not yet as there is plenty of water and no signs of water stress. The vines look incredibly healthy. The photo by the way is syrah from the Méal slope on Hermitage.
All fruit crops are early with apricots already available and as good as I've tasted.
So there is still a long wait for 2011. The 2010s meanwhile, mostly still in cask, look very promising, dark, sleek and refined. More on that later.

Vendanges 2010Posted by: | Comments
August is supposed to be a quiet month in France as businesses close for the month.
Not so down in the Midi when growers begin to prepare for the vintage. Many will start this week and at Domaine de l'Arrjolle the starting gun was fired on Saturday 21st August when the first sauvignons were picked.
So far so good. The grapes are in perfect condition and, though the summer has been very dry with no rain for the last two months, there had been enough rainfall during the winter and spring so the vines have not had to suffer for lack of water. The size of the crop is small which should be good news for quality.
Harvesting here is a long and protracted affair as the last cabernets will probably have to wait till well into October. Fingers crossed then.

As another treat, we took Liam to Guildford today by train. He got so excited as the trains pulled into the station, but I don't think he realised when he was on one actually. He loved watching the world wizz past him however.
Together we explored Guildford Castle - built by William Conqueror soon after 1066.

Hello everyone, Parker and I are here at the Stuffie Presidential Campaign Headquarters. We are going to check in with our campaign team and talk to some of our trusted political advisors.
"Ajdin, a recent poll says that you will gain 4% more votes if you wear pants!" said Miss Feathers.
"But I really hate pants," I protested.
"4% means a lot in those crucial swing states," she said.
"Well, I suppose I could wear them for a while," I replied.
"Ajjjjjdiiiin... a neeeew pooooll sayyyys vooooteeeers waaant tooo seeee youuuu beeee mooore enviiiiirooonmeeentaallllyy friiiendlyyy."
"I think I'm already quite environmentally friendly. What else could I do?" I asked.
"Youuuu caaaan giiiive uuuup youuuuur caaaar," said Ooogie, as he drove my beloved roadster away.
"Noooooo..." I could only watch as it rolled out of sight.
I sat down and let out a sigh.
"Parker, this is not what I thought running for President would be like. First, I have to wear pants, then my car is gone. What's next?"
"I know! I'll have a jar of honey to cheer myself up," I said.
"Hey Ajdin," said Uncle Tibbs. "New polling suggests that 5% of voters will respond more positively to your campaign if you switch to honey alternatives, like stevia or agave nectar.
"So I'll just go ahead and take those away," said Uncle Tibbs.
"Hey, now wait just a minute..."
Pants? My car? And now honey?
"Everyone stop! This is madness!" I shouted.
"But Ajdin, don't you want to get more votes?"
"Dooon't youuuuu waaaaant tooooo wiiiiin?"
I paused.
"I just want... to be myself," I said, finally.
"Have we forgotten why we created this movement in the first place? We are stuffies, and stuffies are true to their word. We will never lie or cater to special interests groups. We stand for honesty, courage, and kindness."
"My name is Ajdin Adilovic...
"... I do not like to wear pants..."
"... I love my car ..."
"... and I love honey!"
My campaign team cheered.
"I will never change and I am proud of being me! I hope I will earn your vote in November!"

Yes! Stay true to yourself and who you are, Ajdin! Your life will be so much easier.ReplyDelete
Drunk Fox here: Good for you Ajdin. Bee careful of those special interest groups - especially the honey producers who are switching honey for high fructose corn syrup.ReplyDelete
We think you should just start a new party, The Honey Party.ReplyDelete
Way to go Ajdin! I'd vote for you. And my Mama says you are the best candidate for the US of A!ReplyDelete

on gauge (free pattern, too)
My favorite chapter of any knitting book is Chapter 2 of Elizabeth Zimmermann's Knitting Without Tears. The chapter is called "Gauge: Required Reading" and it's short and to the point.
I pulled the book off the shelf yesterday specifically to read just that chapter. I'm teaching a Learn to Knit class at my LYS and will be talking about gauge during Sunday's class. The class is the second in a series of three. The first class we cast-on, knit and purled. When they come to class on Sunday the students will have a square piece of stockinette fabric. Hopefully.
Since I want to get the newbies to understand Gauge, I pulled out my bag of swatches to bring to class. I found this:
This is the first knitting I ever produced. I borrowed my friend's Stitch & Bitch book and sat down with some heather gray Red Heart and size 8 needles that my sister gave me. I'm amazed that I still have this bit of knitting. But when Debbie Stoller tells you to hold onto it for posterity, you pretty much do what she says.
During my first two years of knitting, I never knit a gauge swatch. Or if I did it was a half-assed one. I knit them now because I like to; I collect them. Sometimes my gauge swatches are the beginning and end of a project. Sometimes they evolve into something more. And to be honest, I still don't always knit a swatch. Really!
Here is a picture from May '08. If you click on it you can see notes on each swatch. Since I took that picture, I have made many more swatches and found older ones, too.
So, back to knitting class on Sunday. I am struggling with how to approach the gauge issue with newbies. I agree with EZ when she says, "GAUGE is the most important principle in knitting." I will teach the new knitters how to measure it, tell them what it means, and illustrate what might happen if they ignore the swatching process.
But I think the gauge part of knitting is something that you have to learn over time. You need one gloriously effed up project – hours and hours of knitting – to teach you that swatching is a step not to be ignored.
That's about enough gauge talk, right? How about a free hat pattern?
I was going to call this pattern, written for the newbies, "How to Knit a Hat" but that was taken. So instead I named it Elementary. Knit in the round with worsted weight yarn, garter stitch brim, spiral-y decreases at the top.
You can get this one-page download for free on Ravelry. CLICK HERE!
P.S. Don't forget to check your gauge before you begin: 20 sts = 4″ measured over stockinette stitch. 🙂

Love the gauge swatches photo, you make swatching look so pretty colorful and fun, it's inspiring. I know better than to skip a gauge swatch but sometimes, still…..
January 31, 2009 6:34 pm
I can't believe how even your first knitting is! You must be a natural. I love the swatches photo. I tend to tear out my swatches for the yarn when I'm done with them, but it is fun to see your collection. How do you record/organize their vital stats? I find that I often forget the important parts about a swatch, so it would be interesting to hear how you catalog them.
As far as convincing your new knitters of the importance of gauge, do you have any lace swatches? Lace changes so dramatically based on gauge; it might illustrate your point about how you can get a completely different feel in a fabric based on your gauge. I think you're right that it's just a lesson that everyone learns for themselves (and some of us never really learn), but at least you can plant the seed!
February 1, 2009 9:47 pm
i can't believe you have your first ever swatch! that's incredible. you are so good for always swatching. i almost never swatch i wish i did though. i think it'd be really nice to have a gauge swatch for every project i've ever knit. it'd be cool to keep them all in a little book!
February 25, 2009 4:34 am
I just finished my hat and it is so big. What did I do wrong other than use the wrong needles. Oh, maybe I should have made a test swatch too. Instead of the circular needles I used 4 double pointed needles. I'm still waiting for my circulars to come in. I was really excited to start this hat. Did I say how big it turned out. Anyway, I'll be making your hat again. I haven't posted to my blog yet as I want to sleep on this. I know I could have took it out and started over, but I was already decreasing. My yarn was chucky weight and I used a size 10.5 needles. Did I also say that I've only been knitting for about 2 months now. Anyway, love the pattern and will try it again.


text: Well if you are following our story then you know that Carolin is hoping to go away for a few days in the future and has asked to leave her girls with us. She had said on one of our Thursday meeting that she will be doing me many favours until that day comes. Well I jokingly commanded her to make me a banana cream pie and in true Carolin fashion, she called me over a few days later and asked me to come by and pick something up. Well it was a freshly made banana cream pie. I am not much of a baker but I love to eat anything sweet and well made. Well this pie was amazing. We had no trouble devouring it in one day. Thanks so much to Caolin for the sharing of her wonderful dessert. She is the master sweet maker and I wish that I could do as good a job as she does.

My Master's Degree Program is finally winding down, and I am beginning to have free time in the evenings. Unfortunately, most of this time has been spent watching Netflix (Ms. Fisher's Murder Mysteries, Doc Martin) rather than reading. I have been getting back into the swing of things, but have found myself mostly tied up with YA or middle school novels (Mr. Lemoncello's Library, Wonder, Diary of a Part-Time Indian).
Books that deal with the issues of slavery, racism and segregation are always so difficult for me to read. Ironically I read two books that addressed these topics from very different perspectives. Counted with the Stars by Connilyn Cossette and Stella by Starlight by Sharon Draper.
Counted with the Stars tells the story of a young girl that is sold into slavery after bad business choices made by her father. Kiya has some very demeaning experiences, but still doesn't face the circumstances of the Hebrews around her. How many of us have really thought about what it means to be a slave? I shudder to think of it and Connilyn does a great job of conveying the emotions of the slaves, Egyptian and Hebrew. The anger, disgust and shame! Another thing I thought about when reading this book was how it must have felt to experience the plagues. The author made me realize that the common folk must have had no idea what was going on. The rumors that must have swirled around. I hardly read biblical fiction because there is so much room for disappointment, but Connilyn Cossette did an excellent job. (A free copy of this book was provided by Bethany House Publishers.)
Stella by Starlight will be a read aloud for my fourth grade class next year. I think my students will be able to fully understand how blacks living under the yoke of racism and prejudice must have felt. It has some scary moments as life does, but is a must read.
Reading is fun! I am reminding myself of this more each day, but I realize that it is more than fun. It can open your mind and help you to imagine clearly events that have shaped your reality. I look forward to tackling more difficult times and topics through the words of these authors.

Yesterday I went out for lunch. I was waiting at a red light (headed east) and someone turned left from the cross street, so she passed me (going west) as she completed the turn. She slowed down, hung out the window and yelled "Hey, Grandma!" What was funny was that it wasn't a young girl.
I'm not sure what made her yell at me. I mean, it wasn't like she was driving behind me and I was going too slow for her taste. And I have NO idea why she chose that particular insult to hurl.
And now if you'll excuse me, I think I have a date. With Ms Clairol.

"WEAVERVILLE, Calif. - Pollution from illegal marijuana farms deep in California's national forests is far worse than previously thought, and has turned thousands of acres into waste dumps so toxic that simply touching plants has landed law enforcement officers in the hospital.
The volume of banned or restricted pesticides and illegally applied fertilizers in the woods dwarfs estimates by the U.S. Forest Service in 2014, when a top enforcement official testified that the pollution was threatening forest land in California and other states.
California accounts for more than 90 percent of illegal U.S. marijuana farming, with much of it exported to other states from thousands of sites hidden deep inside forested federal land, and more on private property, law enforcement officials said. The state is still developing a licensing system for growers even though legal retail sales of the drug will begin next year, and medical use has been allowed for decades."

Hockey Hockey Hockey
Anyone who likes hockey should be aware that the International Hockey Championships are being played right now, in Canada for the first time! lol It is usually done in Europe :)
And a great deal of this is being played n Halifax, just a hop and a skip from where I live :)
AND thanks to a good friend, We have had the chance to go see games being played! Really good hockey!
On Friday we picked Holly up from school without telling her what we were doing, and we drove off to Halifax. We have not gotten to see Canada play but we on Friday we saw Finland and Latvia! The Latvia fans are amazing! They have come a really long way, and in large numbers, and they chant and dance and have costumes and drums...but the Finland fans are pretty neat too, again costumes and stuff, and totally huge numbers.
Holly on the drive down. She hadnt a clue where we were going but was making many guesses and could not imagine why her sisters were not with us. (they arent hockey fans...)
We had to park a long way from the Metro Center, glad it was a nice day :) Holly got tired and wasnt very fast so she got the ride on Daddy's Shoulders.
Now she has figured out where we are, and she's very excited! Scott is explaining some of what they are watching to her.
Game; White players are Finland and the Red are Latvia.
The look of concentration is real; Holly loves to watch hockey, although her favorite part is the fights, and there were none of those. She askes such intelligent questions and remembers everything!
During an intermission while we were wandering around this fellow saw me aiming up for a photo and he came running over and crouched behhind her...she didnt know he was there at first HAHAHAHAH it was so cute :)
Scott bought some souveniers and we model them. I merely mentioned that the scarf was nice, not that I wanted it SIGH. It hangs above the bed.
The final score, Im not sure the shots on net are accurate because I kept watching for the numbers to go up and they never seemed to move. I think the fellow was asleep at the button SIGH.
Raising the flag, singing the anthem.
And the game was over :) We hoped for overtime but it didnt happen.
after a nice walk back to the parkade and 6 floors of stairs Holly and I spent a few minutes looking off the top floor of the garage. What a view of Halifax Harbour.
And the wondergul Hollis Street ;)
Fast Forward to Monday when we had an unexpected Opportunity to go to another game, this time USA vs Norway. It was a much different game, not even a close score and different children sitting with us ;)
we had to find places for all the kids since Scott's mother could not pick them up this time. Why not?? Nanny and Grampy had their own tickets to the game, the game after ours featuring Canada and Finland (both undefeated) and they were in the Skybox. LOL nice to have friends :) we would be seeing no hockey without friends ;)
So with our tickets we took Annika and Taylor, the Non-Hockey kids. lol Scott's parents picked Holly up from school in the afternoon and as I type they are sitting in the Skybox at the Canada v Finland game, with the Prime Minister of Canada and the Premier of Nova Scotia sitting in the arena. LOL nice eh? its a good game too, although the score isnt close; Canada is kicking BUTT! hahahaha Its on TSN.
Annika all full of smiles on the MacDonald Bridge (I think I can never remember)
Taylor on the bridge pleased to be away from school and on a road trip with mom and dad
Concentrating on driving
And oh look I was there too :)
Now in the arena, Scott dropped us off and we went to our seats while Scott parked and walked up. he suffers so....
Taylor loved the crowd and the music, she watched the game and asked lots of questions about what was going on.
Red - Norway, White - USA
Still having Fun
Chewing nails....getting a little bored although still watching the game. Annika did get bored, got herself a flag, and danced on the stairs for awhile. lol She watched attentively for a long time, gotta give her credit she was more interested than I expected :)
Final Score, 9-1 for USA. it wasnt much of a game. :(
National Anthem, raising Flag.
again at the top of the parkade, checking out the view; the kids loved it and think Halifax is so beautiful lol.
Loving this hockey Tournament!

My poor little babydoll face is teething. Look at that face. I can't even deal. I want to just give her ice pops or something. She's not crying all day or anything, but she is fussier than normal in the afternoon. And she is chewing on anything and everything, more than normal.
I mean, everything.
My poor baby.
My poor breasts.
I know. Say a prayer for me. All my girls are suffering. Owie.

ha, i know huh. good tip i heard: not to react really suddenly (how you'll feel like reacting lol)because it will scare them and they'll either chomp down harder (happened to me) or get scared of feeding. they say to say "NO" firmly, and then put a finger in their mouth and get them off, and take them away from the breast immediately. fingers crossed! lolReplyDelete

This Would Make ANYONE Go Postal!
I have talked a lot about the critters we have in our yard--AND house--and what has caused some of the most frustration for me is the chipmunks. When we first moved to this house, we thought it was cute to feed the buggers. And they became so tame that they would climb into your lap to be hand fed. The Oldest was just a toddler at the time, so I figured THAT wasn't a good thing and we stopped the feedings. Of course--as I said in the last post--they just helped themselves from the bird feeders, so they reproduced like crazy. You know those nature shows that have prairie dogs in them? Where you see their little heads popping out of the holes? That's pretty much what our backyard is like, only with chipmunks. And, of course, they get in the house and eat our gardens. They drive us crazy and have done so for far too many years.
One day when The Youngest was still at home, she had had enough of the chipmunks. All summer long the feeders had to be filled daily, the birds weren't coming to the feeders hardly at all, and the chipmunks were LAUGHING at us whenever we 'shooed' them. After a day of yelling, banging on the window, and doing whatever else she could think of to scare the critters, The Youngest decided to start throwing things at the little rodent. The chipmunk DUCKED when she threw things at it and went right back to filling its pouches with sunflower seed. The more the chipmunk defied her, the more incensed The Youngest became. Finally, with her face as red as Santa's suit, she screamed, "I AM going to get that thing!" and went running out the door with the spray bottle full of water. She got within two feet of the chipmunk and, like a gunslinger from the Old West, pulled out the bottle, aimed, and fired directly in the chipmunk's face/body. (They are small, so the spray went everywhere.) I watched from the breakfast nook window, so I can swear this is the truth: Instead of running away from the water, the chipmunk sat up and raised it's arm and started cleaning its pits. Yes, she gave him a much-needed shower instead of scaring him off. To say The Youngest was thisclose to going postal, is putting it mildly. I thought the poor thing was going to have a stroke, she was so mad. And I laughed until I peed myself. :D
That would be my favorite chipmunk story.

Everyone has a moment in their life where they'd like to travel back in time "knowing what I know now." This was one of those times! I would go back in an instant, with a video camera, just so I could capture the whole thing 'on tape' for posterity. The chipmunk was great, but The Youngest's pure, unadulterated hatred for the little rodent--something you could squash under your foot--was possibly the greatest reaction of complete impotence* I have ever seen. :D
*Of course, the non-sexual meaning of the word. HAHAHAHA!!!!
oh, what a funny story! I can just picture it! Did Youngest give up after that?
- cmk said...
Yes, she gave up after this--she knew when she was licked. ;) She still doesn't laugh about it quite as much as I do--I think she still resents that little rodent. :D

So disappointed. Maybe I should try the Long and Lean version or check out the Boot Cut but I was betting on the Curvy. You know who's version of the Curvy jean does fit perfectly?? Express. LOVE THEM!!!! So.. if you measure up like I do I highly suggest Express' Eva Curvy fit jeans. Very Nice!

Who You Calling A Dork?
...and get more excited to buy it then when checking out new earrings.
I was SO tempted to buy this 14-16 inch (not really sure..I was in awe of it's awesomness)Marcus Phoenix action figure for my brother knowing he wouldn't really care for it giving me reason to keep it for myself. The only thing really stopping me was the price. Even at 50% off making it $25.00 I couldn't do it. I so badly wanted to tho.Gears Of War 1 and 2... Great story lines, great cut scenes and the voice overs are some of the best I've heard. I love these games... more than I love Halo... I didn't even think it was possible.

Au De Texan Girl
I never thought I'd hear myself saying I was digging something Jessica Simpson put out ( her shoes aren't the greatest things in the world. Every now and then she gets it right with the footwear) but this scent is nice. It's not too overpowering and it's seems like it will not only get your mothers approval but your grandmothers as well as you most certainly won't be called a harlot wearing this scent. Well done Jessica.

This is the Sharrp by Steve Madden. It's so FREAKING AWESOME!!!! Here's my gripe.... Because I'm cheap and have decided to pay off my credit cards AND go back to school.. I am just not willing to pay $79.95 for them. I know it's not that much, but I ain't got the cash right now. Problem #2...I can only find these shoes at Steve Madden.com...where they have not gone on sale yet and stand at $79.95. Understand.. I need these shoes. They would complete so many outfits I could pull outta my hat, but right now all I can do is look and admire. One day shoe....one day.

Now I know they're suppose to seem enthusiastic about the merchandise they're promoting but she just annoyed the hell out of me. I've seen her on YouTube and read about her in a couple issues of Oxygen magazine. She seemed so down to earth and sincere. Sweet, motherly, loving..you know. Awesome. On HSN she was just loud and a little obnoxious making these strange noises while gyrating awkwardly on that machine. I couldn't tolerate anymore nor could Patrick. We had to turn the channel.
Days past as well as a little bit of my confusion about her. I watched some of her videos on Bodybuilding.com, and read a few more of her articles figuring she can't be all that bad. One night...came across her on HSN again...the same feeling. Had to turn the channel. Now I'm watching her on YouTube now and can't help but feel the same. AAAAHHH that's what it is! She's on here promoting the machine again. So.. it's only when she's talking about the Ab Circle Pro that she becomes the JNL I can't stand. I see.
She's a beautiful women and I admire her for going from chubby mommy with kids to banging fitness model who worked her ass off..or to pure perfection. Will I ever want to watch her promote something where they ask her to be excited about it ...no. It's like watching two different people. I still respect her and love her tho. Love you Jen.. Muah Muah Muah!!
Food For Thought...

The Struggle
Well..let me just say these jeans are getting mailed back today. I have a 29 inch waist. When I buy designer jeans which are normally Seven's or Citizens.. I get a 29..sometimes a 30. They fit like a glove and give a little where they need to. Not these bitches. I bought them in a 29 because they're made with 2% elastane. They're trouser cut too which normally almost always fit perfectly. Let me tell you...I strained the damn tendon in my wrist to the point where my thumb curled up on me and I couldn't straighted it back out on my own trying to get these over my ass! My boyfriend had to make a splint for me to keep me from using it or it curling up again. Not only that.. He had to help me take them off afterwards. I thought it was embarrassing .. he loved it.
Finding a great fitting pair of jeans is always a struggle for most women. Too many different body types to cater to. Although these are very nice jeans they really aren't worth me losing the use of my thumb or any limb over. That would be a bit much. The things I go through for great clothing. Ridiculous.
Strike A Pose!
What I like about Bazaar is that they don't crowd you with a bunch of articles I could care less reading about. I know it's great to know what's going on in Fashion when you're in the business of Fashion. I get this, but when I just want to look at who put of what this season and next... just give me that. I don't mind a little side note about what's now trendy, and what inspired so and so designer to create such a collection. But please...PLEASE don't expect me to read a page and a half of it. Show me what they did don't tell me.
Also, like many magazine are trying to do now.. they're touching important issues for women like breast cancer and domestic violence and what not.. which is fine. However the same applies. If I want to read about breakthroughs on Women issues I go to Marie Claire... another one of my favorites. Please ..not so much in my Fashion magazine. Bazaar gets it just right! Everything I could ask for in a Fashion mag.
So..although I swear by my Fall and Spring issues of Vogue, month to month I'm a Haper's girl. It's not a diss... just a preference.

RANT: Why This Wash?
Why would anyone in their right mind seriously bring back the Acid Wash jean???
Acid, Snow, White whatever wash you call it, it all equals ugly.
I know the 80's have been prominent in Fashion for the past 2-3 years and I'm a fan. I really am. But there is a difference between rocking leggins under a denim skirt like Madonna in her Lucky Star days, and roaming around in bleach splattered jeans like you're fresh outta the trailer park. Remember Helen Shaver playing Fairuza Balks mother in

The craziest thing happened. This morning Scout and Tillie woke up at 6:30 ready to dive into their Halloween loot (this isn't the crazy part), so Catcher came upstairs to report and ask me if it was okay to organize his candy and trade some of his with Scout (still not the crazy part). Five minutes later he returned to tell me he had exchanged a Kit Kat, a Twix and Peanut M&Ms for three Almond Joys. This is the kid that hates chocolate, remember. He got the Almond Joys for me (sigh). This still isn't the crazy part--bear with me.
Fast forward through a morning soccer game and civilized lunch at home--the first one since Tillie threw my salad all over the kitchen floor in a rage yesterday, but that's another story--to the great candy sort of 2014. Somehow I managed the trick these children into keeping only ten pieces of candy (each) from their spoils. We're donating the rest to the church tomorrow, which will then be given to Mobile Loaves and Fishes. So here's the crazy part: no one complained! No one fought over candy! They were asking me if I thought it was better to keep a Twix or a Nestle Crunch Bar (Twix, obviously). They had so much fun during the trick-or-treating portion of Halloween that the candy rewards seemed secondary. Or maybe I really lucked out. Maybe the stars were aligned just right today. Either way, I was so impressed and pleased with their behavior that I rewarded them all with a "bonus" piece of candy that they could pick from the donation bag. Again, there was total compliance on their part, and no one tried tricking me (even Tillie) by taking more than he/she was allotted. They were just stoked to get a bonus piece of candy. Side note: Catcher won the gold star child award for the day because he never nagged me for a piece of candy...not once. He ended up getting three bonus pieces, actually--don't tell the girls!--because I couldn't believe what a magical day it turned out to be. I imagined the day after Halloween to be filled with groggy ghouls and candy hangovers.
So now I'm sitting here at the dining room table with a five-pound bag of donation candy sitting beside me finding it hard to show as much restraint as these children have shown. I really want a Twix. And I don't even love Twix that much...
Now let's back up to before all this generosity took place. Catcher, Scout and Tillie had to get to work collecting the goods. They don't look so thrilled here, but that's only because they were eager to get started knocking on doors and not posing for pictures. Besides, I didn't have my handler Alex with me for support...he's in Vegas for work this weekend (yikes!). Behold the Jawa, Fairy Princess and Snow White of Halloween 2014:

Reasons to be cheerful
Nick Davies, Swansea West CLP, argues that New Labour has been seen off in Wales.
The collapse of Labour's vote in Wales did not materialise, at least not on the scale gleefully predicted by the media. Labour lost votes, its share dropping to 36.2%, lower than 1983's 38% and indeed the lowest since 1918. The swing against incumbent Labour MPs, including the re-elected left wingers Paul Flynn, Martin Caton and Nia Griffith, followed the UK pattern, with many being cushioned by large majorities. However, despite voters' loyalty being tested to breaking point in the New Labour years, and despite the increasingly rickety party apparatus in many areas, the prospect of a return to the 1980s concentrated minds. With 26 seats out of 40, Wales stays largely red.
Despite their predictions of 15 seats, the Tories only increased their total from three to eight (although their deposition of Lembit Opik from Montgomeryshire will not be seen as a national tragedy). The Tories' share of the vote, 26.1%, was still well short of the 31% in 1983, when they won 14 seats. Although Wales is not the Tory free zone it was in 1997, the hatred felt towards the Tories is visceral and widespread, and has prevented them from breaking out of the coasts, borders and well-heeled Cardiff suburbs.
Plaid Cymru, with three seats, was squeezed between the three biggest parties – perhaps party because they were excluded from the TV debates. However, the results in Ynys Mon and Llanelli, both with Plaid AMs and Labour MPs, suggest that some Plaid voters decided that voting Labour was the best way of keeping the Tories out of power in Westminster.
The Lib Dems also did poorly, failing to take either Newport East or, despite a very determined and well-funded campaign, Swansea West from Labour. Across Wales, the BNP averaged less than in England, although its 5.2% share in Swansea East should rule out any complacency.
Of profounder significance for Wales than the election results was the post-election manoeuvring which eventually produced the Con-Dem coalition. Representatives of Labour, Plaid and, no doubt, many Lib Dems favoured a "progressive coalition" with the SNP and the one Green MP. Labour "tribalism" was blamed by some in Plaid for the failure of this project. The truth is that regardless of the obvious hostility of some Labour MPs towards Plaid, not only were the numbers probably not there, but the obvious trajectory of the Lib Dem leadership was towards a deal with the Tories.
This development could have serious electoral implications for the Welsh Lib Dems. Lib Dem-dominated coalitions run councils in Swansea and Cardiff. Cuts in jobs and services have already made them unpopular. Once the Con-Dem cuts start to bite, they will feel the backlash.
Next year, there are elections to the Welsh Assembly. In the coalition negotiations following the 2007 Assembly elections, two of the Lib Dems' six AMs, including the current leader Kirsty Williams, made clear their opposition to any deal with the Tories. She will now have the awkward task of explaining to her constituents how her complicity in imposing George Osborne's savage attacks on jobs, services and living services can be reconciled with Lib Dem "fairness".
The Lib Dems' political self-immolation can be Labour's opportunity. First, any doubts as to which are the progressive forces in Welsh politics should by now be dispelled: the Lib Dems pretensions of being "progressive" or "left of centre" lie in tatters. There is a clear division between the Tories and the Lib Dems on the one hand, and Labour and current coalition partners Plaid Cymru on the other. Labour can energise its existing supporters and win back those it has lost by fighting the 2011 election on the basis of defense of the people of Wales against Cameron and Clegg's cuts. By first leading the campaign for a "yes" vote in the forthcoming referendum on primary powers, Welsh Labour can use the power provided by democratic devolution to try to prevent the Cameron-Clegg era from being a rerun of the 1980s.
Labour's electoral defeat, following the collapse of the economic model on which it was based, should spell the final, ignominious end of the New Labour project. The New Labour clique is on the defensive, giving lip service, at least, to the need for political renewal. After 6th May, the only Labour Government anywhere in Britain is in Wales, where we do quite nicely without PFI, City Academies, Foundation Hospitals and everything to which, apparently, there has been "no alternative". Any genuine renewal worth the name should look to Wales. "Clear Red Water" might be made in Wales, but it can, and should, work in England and Scotland too.

Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood is a historical third person, stealth action-adventure video game developed by Ubisoft for PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, Microsoft Windows and Mac OS X. It was released for PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 in November 2010, Microsoft Windows in March 2011 and Mac OS X in May 2011. It is the third major installment in the Assassin's Creed series and the second chapter in the 'Ezio Trilogy'. The game is a direct sequel to Assassin's Creed II, with Ezio Auditore da Firenze and Desmond Miles returning as the main protagonists, and it takes place right after the conclusion of the previous game's story. It is the first game in the main series to feature a multiplayer mode. Assassin's Creed: Revelations is a sequel to the game, concluding Ezio's story as he travels to Constantinople.
Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood is a third-person action-adventure video game with main emphasis on sandbox style gameplay in an open world of Rome. Like the previous installments, the gameplay's core mechanics are based on parkour movements, crowd-blending stealth, assassinations and melee fighting system. The combat system features several improvements and for the first time in the series, the game offers a multiplayer mode alongside 15+ hours of single-player gameplay.
The game introduces a new management system: the player can recruit new members by destroying any of fifteen "Borgia towers" around Rome where papal troops are stationed, then rescuing disgruntled citizens in their districts from harassing guards. The player, as Ezio, can then send them to assignments around Europe or call them for support during missions (if they are not already occupied). Tasking the novice Assassins makes them gain experience, and the player is able to customize their appearance, skills and weapon training to some degree by spending the skill points they have earned. Assassins can die on missions, from which they will not return. Ezio masters new gadgets, such as Leonardo da Vinci's parachute, which can be used when jumping from tall buildings, along with poison darts, a faster acting poison, a crossbow, and the ability to hold and throw heavier weapons like axes.
The primary setting is Rome, which has fallen into ruin due to the corrupt rule of the Borgia papacy and the Templars over the Papal States and concentrating all the wealth in the Vatican. Just like the town of Monteriggioni in Assassin's Creed II, the player is able to invest in the city and witness its development and unlock rewards.The player has to conquer and destroy Borgia towers to free city zones from the family's influence. Completing this unlocks new missions and opportunities. Rome is the biggest city ever created after the first two installments (Rome is three times bigger than Florence from Assassin's Creed II) and includes five varied districts: Vatican, Downtown, Tiber, Country and Antique. Unlike the previous installments, travel between different cities or regions is no longer present, as most of the action in the game takes place around the city of Rome. Instead, a series of tunnel networks throughout the city allow the player to travel to different sectors of the city with ease. However players will be able to explore the entire city of Rome, visit a part of Navarre, Spain and Monteriggioni in the present day.
The combat system has been modified. Striking first and offensive actions are more deadly in Brotherhood than previous games where counter-attacks were the most efficient. Before, this made the player wait until the AI struck, which slowed down the pace of fighting. The AI in this game is thus more aggressive and enemies can attack simultaneously. To dispatch them, Ezio can use melee and ranged weapons at the same time, as well as introducing the hidden pistol in combat. After killing one enemy the player can start an execution streak to dispatch multiple enemies quickly. Ezio can throw heavy weapons (axes, spears, and swords) at his enemies. There are new enemy archetypes in addition to those seen in Assassin's Creed II such as horsemen, arquebusiers, papal guards and others.
Horses play a larger role in Brotherhood, not only used as a means of transport (inside the city for the first time), but as a component of acrobatic sequences and advanced combat as well, allowing ranged weapons to be used while riding them. Brotherhood also introduces various types of horse-related assassinations, featuring horse-to-horse assassinations. There are environmental objects like the flower pot in Assassin's Creed II to move faster inside the city (a system of tunnels around the city allow fast travel), as well as new objects such as merchandise lifts to quickly climb up high buildings or structures.
Unlike previous installments, Desmond can leave the Animus at almost any time. This allows Desmond to explore the present-day town of Monteriggioni. The player is also offered virtual training, a mini-game where the player may test their free-running or combat skills.
Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood is the first game in the main series to feature a multiplayer mode. The players are Templars in training at the Abstergo facility. They use the animi (plural for animus) seen at the beginning of Assassin's Creed II to access memories of old Templars and to acquire their skills using the "bleeding effect". There are eight game modes (Wanted, Alliance, Manhunt, Chest Capture, Advanced Wanted, Advanced Alliance, Escort and Assassinate) and different maps, including the areas from the second and the third game like Florence, as well as new maps like Rome, Castel Gandolfo, Siena and Mont Saint-Michel. The gameplay in multiplayer mode is similar to the core gameplay of the series, as players are required to use their assassination and stealth skills. The players must hunt down targets while being hunted themselves. Players earn points by performing assassinations, defending against pursuers, attaining bonuses or completing mode-specific objectives.
The multiplayer mode also includes a leveling system, which allows players to unlock rewards by earning experience points during the matches and gaining new levels. Players can then unlock abilities, perks and streaks. Abilities are active skills, which can be used again only after a cool down time. Perks are passive skills, which can be equipped before the match and they are active all the time. Streaks are bonuses awarded for reaching certain number of successful or failed contracts.The multiplayer beta, exclusive to PlayStation 3 users, was announced at E3 2010. It began on 4 October 2010, with early access for PlayStation Plus subscribers from 27 September, and ended on 18 October 2010. Three maps were playable in the beta: Rome, Castel Gandolfo and Siena.
Game modes
In Wanted, at least six players are on a map where they must find and assassinate each other. Each player is given another player as a target. The goal is to find and kill a target without being seen or killed by the player's own pursuer or pursuers. If the player breaks cover, they are more easily spotted by pursuer or target alike, sometimes resulting in a chase. The player with the highest score at the end of the session wins. Players will lose their contract if they kill an NPC, are stunned by their target or their target is killed by another player. A player cannot kill another player who is not the target, but they can stun their hunter. Advanced Wanted mode is a variant of Wanted mode, with differences including an increased amount of NPCs on the map to make it difficult to pick out targets, and a less accurate compass. There is generally more stealth involved in this mode than in basic Wanted.
The Assassinate mode is similar to Wanted, but instead of target contracts being assigned to players, all players are fair game. Players must identify other player characters and lock on before assassinating. Because two players can kill each other, whoever locks on first becomes the hunter and the other becomes the target. The standard compass found in Wanted is replaced by directional arrows based on proximity, that grow to become arcs around the perimeter of the compass as other players near, and will eventually create a full circle when other players are very close. As in other modes, the player with the highest score at the end of the session is the winner.
- Co-op
In Alliance, there are three teams, each limited to two players, both of which use the same persona. The point of this mode is to get more points than the other teams, but each team is chased by another and is only allowed to kill one specific team (not the team chasing them, but they will be able to stun the team hunting them). This mode encourages players to work together, as teammates can help each other or they can assassinate their targets simultaneously. The Advanced Alliance mode is a variant of Alliance mode, however the players' compasses as well as target engagement becomes more difficult, similar to the Advanced Wanted mode.
- Team
In Manhunt there are two teams of four. One team is the hunters, the other is the hunted. Each team looks like a specific character and takes turns being the hunter and the hunted. Hunters obtain points by assassinations, while the hunted obtain points from escapes, stuns, and remaining hidden. The team with the highest score wins. In Chest Capture there are two teams of four. One team is the hunters, and the other is the hunted who need to steal chests by standing close to them. Each team looks like a specific character and takes turns being the hunter and the hunted. Hunters obtain points by assassinations, while the hunted obtain points from escapes, stuns, and stealing chests. The team with the highest score wins. The Escort mode sees one team of four players protecting a wandering NPC while the other team of four tries to assassinate him. There are two NPCs to protect at a time and they walk through a series of checkpoints, which are visible to both teams. When an escorted NPC is killed, another is synchronized. This mode has two rounds with each team playing once as escort and once as assassins.
Players are able to choose one of the 21 available characters, including: Courtesan, Barber, Priest, Noble, Prowler, Executioner, Doctor, Blacksmith, Captain, Smuggler, Engineer, Footpad, Thief, Hellequin (a female Harlequin, which is available through uPlay) and Mercenary. Two special characters were only available in the selected pre-order editions of the game: the Harlequin and the Officer. However, these two pre-order special characters are also included in The Da Vinci Disappearance downloadable content as are the formerly pre-order only Trajan Market and Aqueducts special locations. The pack contains 4 new characters, Dama Rossa, Knight, Marquis, and Pariah. Each character has unique assassination moves and a signature weapon. Characters can be customized as the player levels up. These customization options include changing the color of the outfit, and equipping different gear.

Fiber Materials Inc., a Biddeford company that develops and manufactures high-temperature materials and composites for defense, industrial, commercial and aerospace applications, has been named a finalist in the 2017 New England Innovation Awards.
The company's entry of its 3D "polymer matrix composite" — a lightweight, high-strength, fiber-reinforced composite capable of withstanding a wide range of challenging thermal and environmental conditions — is one of 20 selected from 194 innovative organizations to compete in the final phase of the competition sponsored by the Smaller Business Association of New England.
Fiber Materials' entry is seen as having strong potential in high-end automotive, spacecraft and medical devices, the company stated in a news release.
"The Smaller Business Association of New England is one of the leading business organizations in New England," Fiber Materials President Rob Pierson stated. "We applied for the SBANE Innovation Award because we think our new 3D PMC Carbon Fiber Composite is one of the most innovative products to hit the high-performance materials market in the last several years. In addition, working through the awards process gives us insights into our value proposition that we may not normally get if we talk to our regular customers."
Nick Bush, Fiber Materials' contracts manager, added: "We think of ourselves as a 48-year-old startup company, and we are honored the Smaller Business Association of New England community sees us the same way."
Winners and finalists will be honored at the "Evening of Innovation" gala dinner on May 11 at the Westin Hotel in Waltham, Mass.
Fiber Materials' components and products can be found inside industrial furnaces, thermal protection systems, rocket motors and nose tips and even NASA's Mars Science Lab Curiosity rover that landed successfully in 2012.

text: I know I've been praising the latest Star Wars cartoon. I have to issue a partial retraction: Episodes that don't star Jar Jar Binks are pretty good. The episode with him is the worst piece of Television programming I've seen in a long time. They took a character that was already CGI, and brought him to a CGI world, and made him look monstrous. And for some reason, he was wearing a purple tie and sleeves that he must have stolen from a prostitute.

My first sample of a Kindle book from Internet Archive is awful enough to make me wait a long time for the second.
A good Kindle formatting of a book is worth the cost. First Rule of Kindling.
On the other hand, those 100 US plus Kindle books are just jokes.
