Keeping the grass roots growing!!
There will be NO MEASURABLE educational benefit to switching to the BSC. Mr. Lieske admits that test scores or Davison's school ranking in the county may or may not improve. He does not want to commit to any measurements to determine the success or the failure of his BSC. Nor does he want to be held accountable for not achieving any higher measureable results from switching to the BSC. All that Mr. Lieske says is that studies show (and he does have the data points) that learning retention "loss" due to summer vacation will be lessened. Is this really a problem in the first place? I think not. His only solution to this condition is to go to the BSC. One audience member suggested giving students voluntary refresher assignments to be completed at home a couple of weeks before the school starts. Mr. Lieske did not like this idea; probably because the school would not be in control and it would be inexpensive – leave schooling to the professionals.
All students and parents will lose three weeks of summer vacation/work/travel. The three lost summer weeks will be given back as individual weeks – one in the autumn, one in the winter, and one in the spring; these will be called intersessions. Mr. Lieske does not take into account the experiences students will lose from not working, traveling, and relaxing a bit before starting another intense school year. Mr. Lieske proposes that his data points about summer learning loss are more important than other out-of-school experiences.
The BSC will be expensive. At the forum Mr. Lieske did not have his "Financial Impact" study done. He has been talking about this for over a year and he claims he doesn't know what it will cost? My conclusion is, Mr. Lieske wants to sell the customers on the product before they learn the cost and before they can decide if they really need it. Regardless of the numbers that Mr. Lieske will eventually offer, here is my rough estimate: The school operates from September until June or about 40 weeks. Three weeks will be added under the BSC so that is an increase of 3/40 = 7.5% in operating costs. Davison Schools receive about $50,000,000 (per DCS's website) from the state and other sources to operate the 40 weeks. Therefore: (7.5%)($50 million) = $3.75 million additional money is required to expand the operating school year by three weeks under the BSC. Intercessions will be staffed by substitute teachers (until the Teacher's Union objects), and parents will pay something (less than babysitting costs the school proudly announced). Even if the estimate is divided in half to compensate for these less expensive costs, the cost to operate under a "Balanced School Calendar" would be approximately $1.875 million per year. This money would have to come from increased taxes from people residing in the Davison Community School District.
My conclusion:
If you want Davison Schools to control your son's or daughter's life and your life more than they already do; if you want to lose three weeks of summer activities; if you want to pay for this with higher taxes; and if you understand that there will be no mearsureable educational benefit from doing all this, well then – Mr. Lieske's "Balanced School Calendar" is perfect for you.

Round and Square LED Lights
Single LEDs VS Pairs
The first thing you should do when looking to purchase LEDs for your vehicle is whether you want your LED lights to come in pairs or individually.
This is a personal preference and even though your choices may differ depending on the specific use of the lights. Individual lighting options are great for those who want to add on to an existing lighting system and are always a positive force for those scouring the off-road at night and need that extra beam to keep the trails within their sights.
Although it may seem obvious, picking size, shape and orientation of your LED lights is a vital part of the off-roading process - purchasing the wrong type of light with the wrong specifications will only leave you unhappy, and we're here to make sure that is NEVER the case.
Round VS Square LEDs
After you decide on either singular LEDs or purchasing them in pairs the next order of business is to determine the proper shape that fits your needs.
Rounded LEDs - The round LEDs come in all different sizes and are usually equipped with the highest quality of bulb to make sure you are ready for action, regardless of the time of day.
The typical setup for a rounded LED light goes from about 5"-6" and are made popular for both the off-roading community as well as the racing community thanks to companies like Rough Country and KC HiLites
Square LEDs - Square LEDs are better equipped as accessory lights rather then your main source of vision.
The reason for this stems to the fact that square LEDs tend to be available in smaller sizes and offer different mounting options such as the flush mount so that these lights can serve multiple purposes such as back up lighting and additional lighting within your front and/or rear bumper.

Passing Health Reform Isn't Enough
Over at The New Republic, Jacob Hacker and Rajul Rajkumar consider our future in a "World Without The Public Plan" (cue ominous music). But I'm not really convinced that the simple presence of a public plan would ensure success as they define it. So I'm taking their article as a "World In Which We Get Health Reform Wrong" (cue louder ominous music). And I think they don't go quite far enough (cue really, really loud ominous music, and maybe a siren wailing).
Hacker and Rajkumar simply consider the policy consequences of a failed attempt at health reform. I think people should consider the political consequences of a failed attempt at health reform. People talk about Colin Powell's Pottery Barn Rule: If you break it, you own it. But there's a partner to that law: Call it the Plumber's Principle. If you hired a plumber to fix your toilet and a week later the problem returned, you'd stop trusting that plumber. If you say you've fixed it, in other words, you own that fix.
If Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi muscle health reform through Congress, if President Barack Obama signs a bill in the Rose Garden and hands the pen to an ailing Sen. Ted Kennedy, if health reform, in other words, passes with fanfare and attention, Democrats own it. This will not be a quiet accomplishment. They will have told the American people that on this historic day, under this historic administration, they have begun to bend the curve and and tame the insurers and guarantee coverage and generally fix this huge problem that so many before have promised action on but so few have succeeded in tackling.
And if, 10 years down the road, the plight of the middle class has worsened and cost growth hasn't slowed and the only real difference is that more tax dollars go towards low-income subsidies, Democrats will be blamed for that. Their arguments will have less credibility. Republicans will run ads about "the last time a Democrat told you he could reform American health care."
This happens all the time in politics. No one would trust Republicans to respond to a hurricane or invade a small country in the Middle East. Conversely, many people would trust Bill Clinton to balance the budget. Voters judge the success of major policy initiatives. And the success of health reform will be even more obvious than most, as they'll feel it in their weekly paychecks. If Democrats pass a bill that gets the policy wrong, they run a real risk of losing trust on what's arguably their core issue. This is high-stakes stuff.

Do Pelosi and Reid understand this? Because my sense is they don't. Otherwise they'd be fighting a lot harder for the best outcomes(meaning public option and single payer).

the only thing that appears absolutely certain about whatever bill will be signed, is that at the end of the day, everyone will still be complaining.
like the two women in the woody allen film complaining about their meal in a hotel...
"the food is terrible, and the portions are too small."
it will not be enough for those who will accept nothing less than public option and single payer, and others will rant bitterly against the triumph of socialism under the obama administration.
no matter what compromise is finally reached, there wont be a complaint department large enough for the day after.

Needless worrying, Ezra.
Look at what public education has done for schools. Look at what welfare has done for the family. Look at what affordable housing has done for the homelessness. Look at what the stimulus has done for unemployment. Look at what Social Security has done for retirement saving. Or how the Affimative Action has defeated racial inequality.
Of course it will work. If you didn't absolutely know it was going to succeed, you wouldn't be here writing about it all day, would you?
On a less sarcastic note, Ez, I won't gloat when the right inherits this mess back from you guys in a few years. Yes, I'll be relieved that maybe we'll still have a chance of stopping the hemmorhaging. But I'll always mourn for what will have been lost.
But don't worry, that won't affect you. Because it what will have been lost is something that you obviously cannot see.

Well, Ezra, as you know I am a strong supporter of a government run plan, preferably single payer. I have quoted from a letter to the President from PNHP which explains why a public option is terrible idea in another of your postings. Part of the problem is what you talk about here. It will fail and that will be the end of health care reform.
I want a system that has been proved to work in one form or another in every other industrialized country. If we can't achieve that, I hope nothing will get done. The situation will worsen and then maybe the public will can overcome the special interests.

Sadly, I'm not sure politics and policy follow that nicely here. The political position of many of our elected officials would be enhanced by health care reform that was not comprehensive that kicked the can down the road a few years. You get to benefit of having done something and you still get to use the issue. With comprehensive health care reform that works, the issue is now lost. Even better if Republicans blocked it.
The worse outcome is a comprehensive reform that doesn't work. As a politician with a 6 year timeframe, doesn't that make the comprehensive part the risk and not the details of the reform. Hey, I'm a Democrat and I believe we can design good programs that will work, but I can't be sure.
Many of those who now benefit from Medicare voted against the party that created the program almost as soon as it was possible to do so. If, say, single payer was enacted, I can see Republicans making gains on the transition. Even if this were a better system than what we have, there would still be problems in execution that Democrats would entirely own. All Republicans would be able to find a sick person who is ill served by the system and tell the sad story. Meanwhile, those with newly secure health insurance would worry about other issues which the Democrats may not own.

Republicans, conservatives and moderate alike, are intent on blocking any initiative of the Obama Administration. Healthcare is the latest rallying point for a Party that labels government as a lousy administrator, only capable of promoting bureaucracy and inefficiency. How paradoxical, though, that same Party is skittish about a public option on healthcare! One would have thought they would welcome such an option, as they consider themselves fierce advocates of the free market system, which by its very nature promotes choice and competition. They contend that the public option will eventually drive private insurers out of business. How does that tie into their premise that Uncle Sam can manage nothing?
In furtherance of their argument, they predict that the public option is only one step away from a single-payer system, under which healthcare will be rationed. But we already ARE in a rationing health care regime. Self-imposed. Facing high premiums, ever-increasing co-payments, exorbitant drug prices, and unaffordable deductibles, we are self-rationing our healthcare. Many Americans simply AVOID going to the doctor and, sadly enough, take a gamble on life. This should never be. Not in America!

The Little Brown Jug
The Little Brown Jug sounds like something you would find in the back of your kitchen cabinet. Unlike most containers, Delaware's "Little Brown Jug" is one of the most coveted prizes in harness racing. The race takes place annually on the third Thursday in September as part of the Delaware County Fair. The race began in 1946 at the Delaware County Fairgrounds. Approximately, 37 thousand people were in the crowd for the first race. The popularity of the race continued to grow and in 1956 the Triple Crown of Harness Racing for Pacers announced that the Little Brown Jug would be one leg of the accomplishment. The name was derived from a newspaper contest in the mid-1940′s. The horse which wins the race has their name glazed on a large brown jug. In 2005, the jug ran out of space and a 2nd brown jug was constructed. Today, over 50 thousand people come out to see the event. The Little Brown Jug also holds the record for the largest attended race is harness racing history (56,000).

Your home is a valuable asset, therefore opting for quality, long-lasting and deluxe finishes, such as beautiful natural stone flooring, is both a prudent investment as well as a great way to add style to your property.
Authentic stone flooring is timeless and rich with distinctive and unique natural character and it is also hardwearing and resilient, meaning that floors tend to stay looking good for many years to come. Radiant underfloor heating systems are also ideal for use with stone floors, since the hard material offers the least resistance and therefore transfers and conducts thermal heat very effectively. Due to these desirable qualities, using it in the home will almost certainly add significantly to resale value.
Here, we explore the many different ways that natural stone flooring can be used as a striking addition to your home.
Quarried natural stone continues to remain popular for homes of all eras – stone flooring is a fantastic choice for hallways, kitchens and conservatories, as well as bathrooms and living areas.
At The Stone Gallery, one of the many things we love about this natural product is the array of finishes, colours and patterns which can be found in stone and which make it so incredibly versatile.
Texture and character can be injected into a home, though the installation of natural stone flooring – from rustic, riven surfaces to chic, polished slabs – there really is a style and colour to suit every type of décor and interior style.
For sleek and chic modern properties, opt for very smooth stone flooring which will add stone's organic quality whilst maintaining a sophisticated edge. With its neutral colouration, lightly polished travertine will give a subtle and understated look to contemporary, urban kitchens, bathrooms, hallways and open plan living areas. For those who seek more statement-making wall tiles and stone flooring, marble will lend a glamourous elegance to boutique hotel-inspired bathrooms and opulent kitchens.
If you're looking for a more rustic character – perhaps for a cosy farmhouse-style kitchen, hallway, utility or living room – then the main contender is hardwearing, stain-resistant slate. In a varied palette of deep colours, slate is ideal for homes with high traffic, children and pets! In less busy homes, painted country cottage kitchens will be enhanced with mellow antique limestone, for a slightly distressed effect. Tumbled matt travertine tiles are perfect for bathrooms and far less slippery than their polished counterparts and will add a mellow warmth to walls and floors.
At The Stone Gallery we are dedicated to selling an extensive range of high quality natural stone flooring and tiles. Whether your residence is traditional or modern in its style and construction, our knowledgeable, passionate team is on hand to ensure that every customer finds the right stone for their project.
Please call into our Camberley stone flooring showroom to see our showcase of products or call us on 01276 691 501 should you have any queries.

Last night, the Chicago Cubs defied an incredible 108-year championship drought by beating the Cleveland Indians 8-7 in a thrilling game 7 of the World Series. While Chicago burst with joy after the game, native son Bill Murray became the team's unofficial spokesperson (or mascot), parading around Progressive Field and offering hilarious soundbites that only the legendary comedian could.
Let's be clear about one thing, though: Bill Murray drank a lot. In one excellent clip, he interviews Cubs President of Baseball Operations Theo Epstein. They douse each other in champagne, because that's what you do when you win the World Series:
Feelreal Multisensory VR Lets You Smell Movies!
After getting drenched in bubbly, Murray gave reporters a really heartfelt speech about the Cubs' long and often disappointing championship dearth, known in sporting folklore as "The Curse." Then he took a massive, celebratory pull from his bottle and told a reporter to recycle it for him:
He also partied with Cubs fans, of course, even kissing the hands of some random dude like a pauper does a princess:
During the rollercoaster of a game, he watched with palpable anxiety as his Cubs almost squandered a 5-1 lead:
But after they pulled through, he honked a car horn because champions love a good cacophony:
He put on his public-official hat, advising mayor Rahm Emanuel to let the kiddies skip school on Thursday and Friday:
Murray's presence was surely felt after the game and across the internet Wednesday night. But did he play an active role in breaking the curse just by being there and providing good juju when Wrigley Field needed it most? Some people seem to think so.

Will US start prosecuting journalists for espionage?
Michael Calderone, Huffington Post:
Here's a back-and-forth from Wednesday's proceedings in the case against Pvt. Bradley Manning that should be troubling for journalists.
Colonel Lind, the judge, asked a prosecutor a hypothetical question: If Private Manning had given the documents to The New York Times rather than to WikiLeaks, would he face the same charges?"Yes, ma'am," said the prosecutor, Capt. Angel Overgaard.
Journalists will often try making a distinction between their outlets and WikiLeaks, which, some say, is more of a clearinghouse for documents or perhaps a middleman between a source and news organizations. They may point out that their news organizations put raw material in context, call for comment, and weigh the government's concerns over publishing sensitive material.
But whatever journalists may think, the prosecutor in Manning's case sees no difference between a source's relationship with a major newspaper and with WikiLeaks. So presumably, a source providing information to the Times could similarly be prosecuted for indirectly "aiding the enemy," a capital offense.
Some have acknowledged the slippery slope before when it comes to leveling charges against Manning or WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange.
"If he can be charged, maybe the Washington Post and the New York Times and others can be charged," Congressman Ron Paul told me in Dec. 2010, as some political leaders were calling for Assange to be charged under the Espionage Act. News outlets, such as the Times, were not only publishing articles following WikiLeaks' release of State Dept. cables — allegedly provided by Manning — but also the cables themselves.
Several reporters spoke to me back then about the possible implications for journalists if the U.S. prosecuted WikiLeaks, all the more relevant given yesterday's proceedings.

text: Kia Motors Corporation, along with its joint venture Donfeng Yueda Kia (DYK), has taken the wraps off its locally-produced Forte C-segment sedan at Auto Shanghai 2009. Also making its Chinese debut is the Korea-produced new Sorento Highline Cruiser which made its world premiere earlier this month at the 2009 Seoul Motor Show. China-made Kia Forte The Kia Forte for the Chinese market will be produced at DYK's plant located in Jiangsu province and has a crucial role to play in the brand's future fortunes in China. It will be sold alongside the hugely popular locally-produced current generation model – the Cerato. Kia designers and engineers concentrated on eight key areas while developing the Forte: dynamic styling, class-leading performance, increased fuel economy, improved ride/handling balance, greater cabin comfort, enhanced overall safety, the introduction of new technologies and maintained functionality. Globally, the Forte four-door sedan will be joined by an exciting two-door coupe model – Forte (Cerato) Koup, which was unveiled last week at the New York Motor Show and will go on sale in late 2009. Styled under the direction of Kia's Chief Design Officer, Peter Schreyer, the previously conservative appearance has been put aside and Forte embodies Kia's new design DNA in its most complete form so far. "Design gives a soul to the product and the future of Kia products lies in balance, clarity and purpose. Our all-new Forte embodies that philosophy. Breaking away from traditional forms, Forte is a design that notches up the visual standards of C-segment cars. Without any extraneous features, its crisp, clean exterior styling conveys a powerful and dynamic image that exudes speed," observes Schreyer. For the Chinese market, Forte will be available with a choice of a 2-liter gasoline or locally produced 1.6-liter gasoline engine, with manual or automatic transmissions, in a selection of 10 exterior colors and two interior colors, with a broad choice of equipment/trim levels and a vast range of factory-fitted optional extras. Forte is 30 mm longer, 40 mm wider and 10 mm lower than the previous model and features a wheelbase also extended by 40 mm to ensure that five adults can be comfortably accommodated. Following modern design trends and improving both stability and handling, the track is increased by 62 mm front and 79 mm rear (up to 39 mm more than the body), pushing the wheels towards the vehicle's outer extremity for a bolder stance.

In Russian About, when the Ghostbusters visit Russia to lecture about ghostbusting, they are made scapegoats for the theft of the precious Nameless Book, a link to awakening a great evil.[2]
A flight passed near the Aurora Borealis. Ray, Slimer, and Winston fought over who could use the window to look at the phenomenon. Egon ignored them and calculated something as Peter tried to force his way to the mirror. A flight attendant struck up a conversation with Egon. Egon revealed the Ghostbusters were invited to a talk about ghostbusting at a Soviet institute. Ray elected to try a game of paper, scissors, rock to determine the order of who would go to the window in what order. Once everything was settled, the flight passed through a cloud bank. The guys soon landed and arrived at the institute in Dnepropetrovsk. Egon pronounced it for Winston but he wasn't going to try and duplicate it.
The guys walked in and saw other conference goers present. Katarina Novachenka, their sponsor, welcomed the Ghostbusters and directed them to their rooms. Katarina showed them the institute's exhibit of paranormal artifacts, the largest in the world. Ray marveled at the items, some 1000's of years old. Egon mused the collection had enough psychokinetic energy to blow out half of Siberia. They reached a laboratory and met researchers Vladimir Pavel Maximov and Dmitri Smerdyakov. They were not so welcoming and dismissed the Ghostbusters and their equipment as a flashy light show. Vladimir boasted he had a revolutionary theory that would trump the Ghostbusters. Peter is annoyed but Egon stopped him and quoted Einstein. However, the duo also dismissed Einstein. Egon walked off to confront them as the others left in a hurry.
At the conference, Vladimir revealed he spent 20 years of research on a paranormal theory that Titanic sunk after it struck Elvis Presley. Katarina interjected and noted the Titanic sunk in 1912 and Elvis was born in 1935. The crowd laughed and Vladimir stormed off stage. Oddly, Dmitri was missing. Egon came on stage and introduced the Proton Beams. The others fired non-lethal streams into the air for the demonstration. Slimer was sent over to be blasted and trapped for the demo. Vladimir interrupted the demonstration and announced there was a theft at the exhibit. He accused the Ghostbusters. The Ghostbusters went to look for themselves. Slimer let himself out of the Ghost Trap and hurried over. Ray determined the stolen artifacts were harmless but Egon pointed to an empty cabinet. The Nameless Book was in it. Ray explained it was an ancient book full of powerful magic whose title even couldn't be uttered.
Vladimir presented Police Inspector Faden to the others. Faden forbade the Ghostbusters from leaving the institute. While they waited, Katarina asked them about the book. Ray and Egon explained it was connected to the Old Ones. There was one left and the Ghostbusters stopped it from destroying the world before. The Nameless Book was one of two books that could wake it up. Katarina remembered Vladimir was obsessed with the Old Ones and talked about them without pause. Peter placed two and two together and realized Vladimir stole the book then pinned the blame on the Ghostbusters. Egon opened the door and Faden was waiting right on the other side. After he shut the door, Peter begged Katarina for help. They all escaped out a window and drove away. Ray informed Slimer they would be facing an Old One again. Slimer pounded on the windows in sheer terror and wanted to be let out. Egon calibrated his P.K.E. Meter to pick up the paranormal energy put out by the book. Faden was on their trail.
Vladimir and Dmitri arrived at a peculiar mountain and met up with a cult. Meanwhile, the others were trying to push the car out of a jam but it was no good. A tire and the engine were shot. Luckily, a man in a horse drawn carriage came upon them. The cult began to chant from the Nameless Book. However, the pedestal holding the book kept sinking so Dmitri was used to prop it up. As the guys approached in the carriage, the cult was almost finished and started the final chorus. The inner ring of the center sunk down into the mountain with the cult in tow. Egon believed they still had a chance but they needed something from home. He asked Slimer to fly to the Firehouse as fast as he could and bring back a box marked "Big Trouble." After Slimer left, Katarina and the guys descended a huge stairwell with steps over 10 feet tall. The place was probably one of the Old Ones' secret hiding places. Slimer's flight caught the attention of American military. Just to be sure, a general decided to have Slimer shot down. Slimer narrowly dodged the assault and kept on going.
As Katarina and the Ghostbusters walked on, they wondered if there would be any guardians stationed to protect the Old One. Soon enough, Nightgaunts awoke and attacked. The Ghostbusters made short work of them and trapped them all. However, they soon realized the Ghost Traps weren't built to hold these monsters. Ray tossed it far away where it exploded. Slimer returned to the Firehouse, found Big Trouble, and mustered the last of his strength to carry the box back to the Soviet Union. Katarina and the Ghostbusters found the cult at a temple. Vladimir uttered the last word of the chant and revealed the Old One Yibb-Tstll promised Vladimir would be allowed to rule the world if he complied. The Ghostbusters shot the book but it was too late. It shot into the temple. The Ghostbusters aimed their throwers at the cultists. They pondered the situation and ran for it. As the pit in front of the temple lit up, Slimer arrived. Egon asked for everyone's Proton Pack and hooked it up to Big Trouble. It could create a rip in space in time powerful enough to defeat Yibb but someone had to run it to the pit. Peter kissed Katarina and ran the device to the pit. Yibb appeared just as Big Trouble was activated. The place started to cave in. They ran for it and managed to escape safely. Faden was waiting outside with the cultists in hand cuffs. Katarina kissed everyone on the cheek, even Slimer.

- The episode was recorded on May 16, 1990.[3]
- J. Michael Straczynski remembered having fun doing "The Collect Call of Cathulhu" and the great fan reaction. He decided to do a follow up episode set in Russia that featured the return of Cathulhu, the Necronomicon, and the Cult of Cathulhu. However, Straczynski found himself in a conflict with Broadcast Standards & Practices.[4]
- After the script was done, Straczynski got notes from Broadcast Standards & Practices (BS&P) informing him he couldn't use Cthulhu or the Necronomicon since these were both "established occult and cult lore." Straczynski argued they were fictional creations. BS&P claimed they did the "research" and knew the book was real. It was written by an Arab and the basis of a Satanic cult. Straczynski fancied himself a scholar on the history of Lovecraft and challenged their claims.
- BS&P said they would contact the UCLA Folklore Division. Days later, BS&P told Straczynski the folklore people confirmed their claim. Straczynski contacted the folklore people and found out BS&P was lying. It was correct BS&P did contact them but it was clear they made their minds up already. BS&P caught wind of the conversation and went to ABC first, telling them Straczynski was trying to sneak in Satanic cult lore into the show. ABC issued a mandate that Cthulhu and Necronomicon could be used. Straczynski decided to refer to Cthulhu as Old One and Necronomicon as Nameless Book in script. Lovecraft fans would pick up on the references.
- BS&P then focused on the mention of H.P. Lovecraft in the script and told Straczynski he couldn't use the name either. Straczynski went ballistic. He threatened to pull the script and quit. The producers of The Real Ghostbusters, Michael C. Gross and Joe Medjuck, didn't think the incident was worth the hassle, but as they learned more about what happened - they threatened to take it to the LA Times. BS&P back off.
- During the trip, the Ghostbusters and Slimer fight over who gets to see the Aurora Borealis first.[5]
- The Ghostbusters visit Dnepropetrovsk, Ukraine, which was still part of the Soviet Union at the time.
- This episode recycles scenes from previous episodes:
- After the Ghostbusters enter the institute, Winston says, "Are you sure this is where they're having the conference on the paranormal?" Scenes of attendees of the conference are recycled from "Deadcon 1." "Deadcon 1" was from an earlier season of the series. The animation and quality of the footage differs greatly from the animation in this episode.
- Reused footage of the Firehouse can also be found from "The Joke's on Ray"[6], which is used when Slimer flies to the Firehouse [7]
- Egon mentions Albert Einstein.[8]
- Vladimir's theory involves the Titanic crashing into Elvis.[9]
- The Titanic appeared in Ghostbusters II
- Ray was asked about Elvis in Ghostbusters.
- Egon later presented a theory the Titanic was sabotaged by a Gremlin in the Extreme Ghostbusters episode "Grease"
- The Nameless Book is a pun from a previous episode "The Collect Call of Cathulhu" when the network didn't want the Necronomicon to be actually named.[10]
- Egon mentions the Ghostbusters fought the last Old One before.[11]
- Either they are fighting Cathulhu again in this episode
- Or are fighting another Old One from a case that took place off screen
- Which accounts for the different design for the Old One in this episode
- Slimer's abject fear at fighting another when he wasn't in "The Collect Call of Cathulhu"
- The episode call sheet revealed the guardians to be Nightgaunts which in Lovecraft myth only serve the Elder God Nodens and the Old One Yibb-Tstll. Thus, the Old One in this episode would have to be Yibb.
- Though it's been shown that ghosts can travel fairly quickly, Ray states to Egon that he doesn't know exactly how fast a ghost can fly, simply because no one has ever timed one.
- The cult's chant turns into a homage to Bugs Bunny's Ra Ra Ra chant in Merrie Melodies' "Super-Rabbit" from 1943.[12]
- Egon and Ray reference species from the Cthulhu Mythos species: a Shuggoth (which appeared on "The Collect Call of Cathulhu"), a Shambler, and a Ghast. They also mention Cthulhu Mythos writers H.P. Lovecraft and Clark Ashton Smith.[13][14][15][16]
- After Katarina kisses Slimer, he performs the Hopak.

Philadelphia Eagles' Malcolm Jenkins named NFC Defensive Player of The Week
After an interception turned into a 99-yard touchdown against the New England Patriots, Malcolm Jenkins was destined for some accolades.
The NFL announced that Jenkins was named the NFC Defensive Player of the Week for the third time in his career.
Prior to Jenkins' touchdown return, he had a tackle for loss on Patriots' running back James White. Two plays later, he picked off Tom Brady for the go-ahead touchdown.
Jenkins also added five more tackles on the game.
On the year, Jenkins leads the Eagles with 76 tackles total tackles. This is also Jenkins' second year in a row with a pick-six.

The Texans beat the Chiefs and survived before the bye 4-2. Before we get into issues with the team, I'd like to enjoy the win for a bit. I want you to look at these pictures from Andy Martin who maintains the best historical collection of Houston Texans pictures anywhere at TexansBullPen.com.
The originals are better because you can more easily see the joy in the fans' faces. In your day to day life, there are few things that happen that create such communal happiness:
That is amazing separation that Johnson is able to get. If you see it on video, it's because even with a bum ankle, he can change directions as well as any big wide receiver that ever was.
I know I've said this before, but we should appreciate the time that we get to see Johnson play. The term "special player" tends to be overused but certainly applies to him.
Caption Contest:
Please caption the following pictures, also from Andy. You will win nothing for your caption suggestion other than our appreciation for your humor and kind consideration:
I will note that during times during the game, Arian Foster seemed to be holding the ball too far from his body when he ran. It didn't end up being a problem, but it made me really nervous.
Texans Cheerleaders not MVPs, but still bringing it.
The cheerleaders were the MVPs of the game last week. They were close to winning it this week but given the strong showing in the 4th quarter by the Texans offense, I would give the game ball to Andre Johnson.
It was a close call. See at FanHouse: Texans Cheerleaders Salute the Troops With Military Hottie Outfits
So is this the part where we start singing, "I'm proud to be an American…."
DeMeco Ryans is out for the year with an achilles injury suffered at the end of the second quarter. You hate to see any player get injured, but Ryans is the platonic form of the player and person you like to root for. Did well in school, hard worker on the field, respected by teammates.
I don't even like to talk about the implications of this for the team because I just feel so bad for him. Keep him in your thoughts and prayers.
But the Texans and their fans this week now have to eat a big dose of "now what?"
There is no point trying to defend the defense at all. KC quarterback, Matt Cassel had his best game out of twenty as a Chief, with a 122.9 QB rating. Quarterbacks having their best games of the year (or ever) against the Texans isn't unusual…it's easy to become numb to that.
You Make the GM Call.
Let's say you are Texans GM. You have two weeks before the next game. You just lost your star middle linebacker. Your secondary is so young they don't shave. Your defensive line is banged up and has been mostly ineffectual against teams that have been dumping off the ball. Your defense is 30th in allowing TE's to catch the ball, and 31st in allowing RB's to catch the ball. Even the run defense that some liked to defend, gave up huge yards to Kansas City, and was ineffectual against the Cowboys and Giants, and only looks good in comparison to the porous run defense.
Your team's upcoming schedule, based on some measures, is the hardest in the league. The next 5 opponents include 3 divisional games and the next two quarterbacks facing your pass defense have the last name
Brady Manning and Rivers.
However, your team is 4-2 with a divisional win against the Colts. This team beats the world if they have a better defense.
So what can you realistically do in-season to fix your defense? Fix meaning: "make it average" not "make it dominant" because I don't think 4 quarter defense is possible for this team, especially without Ryans.
"Realistically" means recognizing real-world implications of your actions. Making trades that work for both sides. Noting that though there may not be salary cap implications from this year's actions, the new NFL collective bargaining agreement will likely have salary constraints. Also realizing that there are some players that are going to want new contracts coming up.
I'm not seeing many realistic ways to fix how bad this defense is in two weeks. I don't feel confidence in the coaches or the players as a group. I've seen how the offense and special teams can improve, but the defense not so much.
So, play GM or if that seems too daunting, do some post-game captioning.

"Publishing" is a word in the music industry that strikes fear and confusion into artists.
I'd like to clear that up with this post, showing that most of the horror stories from the past have been eradicated, and that your publisher is not only a huge ally but also a crucial revenue stream.
There are two main sets of rights in a piece of music: the recorded master and the written song. Every artist on my roster writes their own material or music for others; so although this is not the case for everyone, let's assume that the artists we are referring to in this piece write their own material. The past decade has allowed artists to have as much control as they want in every way over their recordings. At the same time, there are a slew of forward thinking publishers who have evolved as well.
When I first bring up publishing to an artist, there are often fearful, saying that "I have to own my publishing", and they are like a wounded animal concerned about even taking a publishing meeting in the first place. One thing I'd like to highlight is that there are different types of deals a writer/artist can strike with a publisher, including administrative or "admin" deals in which the writer/artist owns their rights. In the past, this option may not have existed, but if an artist is adamant about owning their rights, working out an admin deal should not be a problem with most publishers.
On the same topic, don't fear co-publishing or "co-pub" deals. Most of these deals are not the horror stories many artists have heard from the pre-digital era in which a writer signed their catalogue away for a sum of money that seemed high at a time, but didn't benefit on the works past the signing.
Of course, have meetings, get an ethical attorney, and get to know everyone at your publishing company, not just the point person who signed you. Note that, when I have done co-pub deals for young artists, that means the company is that much more invested in their career from an early stage. Of course, we always want to ensure there is a reversion, as the artist is the one creating the material. But if we're doing a deal for an artist in their 20's, the idea is that when the term is up, we can re-negotiate for better terms, and ideally an admin deal, once the artist is bigger.
I am honoured to be modering a publishing panel at this year's midem (Jan 28, 10.40), with two of the most brilliant publishers in the modern era: Justin Kalifowitz of Downtown and Mary Megan Peer of Peer Music (see her recent midemblog post on D2F Publishing here). I have had the pleasure of doing deals with both of these companies that addressed issues that artists run into every day in the modern music industry. Many publishers realise that artists may not have a label infrastructure to fall back on and offer funds up front to help with promotion. Justin is someone who is on the pulse of the tech and start-up communities, taking what he learns in those worlds into his role as the president of Downtown. Both companies are well aware of collecting globally in formats and mediums that constantly change in the digital era.
Where should an artist begin though, before they catch the eye or ear of someone like Mary Megan or Justin?
Many publishers will have my head on a platter for saying this, but if you are truly starting from scratch, working with a re-titling company such as Music Dealers or Jingle Punks is a great way to land a first sync and get your foot in the door. As with anything, make sure you develop real relationships with the staff of the company you work with, so they can keep you in the forefront of their minds on various levels.
Simultaneously, reach out to Terrorbird or Zync to see if they are interested in taking you on. Both companies are incredibly selective, but also yield fantastic results; all for a commission, with the artist/writer keeping all rights and additional funds.
Once an artist has a foothold in one or both of the steps above, a publisher may come calling. And because you have built yourself up on your own, you instantly have more leverage when entering into (hopefully) the publishing deal structure of your choice.
If you have more questions and are coming to midem, come on by our panel. I could listen to Mary Megan and Justin speak all day; so it is a very unique opportunity to hear how they are leading their companies and artists by constantly evolving what is best for their writers.
And by the way, if you are an artist / writer who has received any radio airplay or have already landed your first sync for any amount; there are funds that need to be collected beyond your PRO. So please, let the experts do their job and do not fear your publisher. Be excited and grateful that you have one; hopefully, they turn into a long-term partner for both you and your music.

And be sure to follow here on Twitter here, especially during midem, where she'll notably be hosting the D2F Camp conference area (details of all her sessions here).

You grabbed my attention with the balls of twine and when I went to your page there was the great metal table. Recently, I purchased a copper perforated wash tub and debated how to use it. It just may need to become a table, that seems easier than a light. Thanks for sharing your great photos and blog. Elaine of Sisters Treasures in Texas.

I'm fairly new to the Light Palette, and I'm trying to offline a show. As I understand it I should be able to record looks, and have them referenced in my cues, which seems to be working. However if I am in a cue, and I select and modify fixtures and press the update button I don't seem to get the update dialog box that the manual sais I should have. Instead it defaults to updating the cue, so I loose my reference to the look. Any thoughts?

Professional and diligent hotel asset management is particularly important since it is continually necessary to reinvest capital into real estate in order to maximize value. Ramsfield is the type of asset manager who will consider investing its own capital into our assignments if our clients do not possess the funds to complete necessary capital projects or simply want us to have a stake in their investment.
Throughout our history, we have efficiently managed and been involved with all types of hotel renovations and FF&E replacement programs. As always, our goal is to maximize each investment dollar to insure it is used as efficiently as possible toward increasing cash flow. We have managed real estate ranging from simple select-service hotels in tertiary markets to complex full-service, four-diamond properties located in major urban centers. In addition, Ramsfield has developed significant experience in managing investments in Hawaii.
Our approach is all-encompassing, well-tuned, focused, and easily understood. We speak the language of our clients because we are clients of ourselves in our own investments.

Remote Articles
The latest feature for TrickleUp is RemoteArticles. There are a few blogs that i read daily. Occasionally there's a good article. I want to somehow link my blog to it. There's one way to do this. Create a new "article" on my blog that refers to that article. This may or may not leave a track back on their blog.


text: A few months back I was at my girlfriends house where she was pulling out these pre- packaged beautiful meals, beauty waters, and delicious snacks. She was always up on the newest food plan, or model work out to look and feel her best, but this one caught my eye it was a delivery service called Sakara. The food looked amazing, the snacks were great, and the concept was something that finally made sense to me. The plan doesn't call for all these juices, leaving you starving, they want you to eat, and eat well. It is always nice to look a company up and be able to relate to the people behind The brand, to know that it wasn't made by a big corporate big shot, but people that helped themselves and now want to help you. Not only did they develop a healthy, doable plan, it is made by two young women that developed their reality into a company that can help others in the constant struggle. Meet Whitney and Danielle the two masterminds behind Sakara and learn how you too can change your relationship with food:

Skip, feeling better about most things visual, is looking for some new projects.
What with the popularity of essential oils, he found a great kit at one of his favorite online locations, Penn State Industries, for Aromatherapy Necklaces that hold a few drops of essential oils within little vials that can be turned on the lathe.
Here is one he made for me, out of "genuine olive wood from Jerusalem"! It is beautiful, and he said it took him about 5 minutes to turn on the lathe!
The kit comes with several wicks, so you can change up the variety of essential oil whose vapors you want to go around sniffing all day.
Since I feel a little cold coming on (what would the change of season be without one, right?) I put some drops of an oil called "Breathe" in the vial. The gold coupling that is attached to the vial, and can be threaded onto the neck chain, has little stylized openings, to let the vapors waft through from the wick.
What an awesome project; I definitely feel better already!

Wow! Cindy, this is superb. I love the rich, grunginess of the background. The colours and composition are scrumptious. And what could be more seasonally appropriate than a pumpkin lid hat? Fantastic.
(PS - If you are interested in another challenge, a new one opens this coming Monday. It is "Take a Word" and it will be based on a one word theme each week. The idea is for you and your imagination to take that one word to wherever you want it to go.

Figures released by Aberdeen International Airport have shown that almost 220,000 passengers travelled through the airport during February.
This represents a decrease of 13.3% compared to the same period last year.
Domestic traffic was down 16.3% to 126,849 passengers, due in part to the reduction in capacity following the withdrawal in September of Little Red's Heathrow service. Despite showing a slight dip of 1.8%, international traffic remained strong at 59,332 passengers.
Commenting, Carol Benzie, managing director of Aberdeen International Airport, said: "It is no surprise that our passenger numbers are continuing to be affected by the performance of the wider economy.
"Despite this, we had cause for celebration when we welcomed Icelandair's inaugural Reykjavik service earlier this week, which is one of a number of new routes we will launch during 2016.
"The airport plays a vital role in supporting the economy and we remain committed to strengthening our connectivity.
"Alongside our efforts in route development, we will start progressing the first phase of our £20 million investment programme which will result in a comprehensive transformation of our current passenger facilities.
"Initial preparatory works will get underway later this month which will involve temporary baggage reclaim facilities being put in place. They will go live in May when construction works on the extension will commence in earnest."
The investment will result in a 50% increase in the size of the terminal building.
This will include the creation of two new passenger lounges, an expanded baggage reclaim area, a new security search area, new immigration facilities and new retail and catering facilities within the main departures lounge.
The construction of a two-storey extension to the south of the existing terminal building will start in May 2016.
At ground level, the extension will accommodate all facilities for international arriving passengers as well as domestic baggage reclaim. Two business lounges will be located on the upper level.

This anthology collects for the first time Rhys
Hughes' fantastical love stories.
What is a fantastical love story? It isn't quite the
same as an ordinary love story. The events that take place are stranger, more
extreme, full of the passion of originality, invention and magic, as well as an
intensification of emotional love. Also, the voice that tells them has rather a
different tone to a conventional romantic narrator.
The stories in Salty
Kiss Island are set in this world and others, spanning the spectrum of
possible and impossible experiences, the uncharted territories of yearning, the
depths and shoals of the heart, mind and soul. They are adventure yarns,
whimsies and comedies, tragedies and paradoxes. They are melancholy, gleeful,
philosophic or mystical. A love of language runs through them, parallel to the
love that motivates their characters to feats of preposterous heroism, luminous
lunacy and grandiose gesture. They include tales of minstrels and their catastrophic
serenades, dreamers sinking into sequences of ever-deeper dreams, goddesses and
mermaids, sailors and devils, messages in bottles that can think and speak but
never be read, shadows with an independent life and voyagers of distant
galaxies who are already at their destinations before they arrive.

When Your Husband is Defeated by a Four Pound Cat.
The kids and I left this weekend to come down to Kentucky to stay with my parents for a week.
I'm photographing my friend's birth and her due date was Saturday. So far no baby! This is her third birth. I've photographed the other two. Have I ever mentioned how much I love births??
Tyler had to work on Monday and Tuesday (today and tomorrow). He's planning on coming down on Wednesday.
So the way we have our ridiculous kitties set up at our new house is fairly simple. We put their stinky litter boxes in the garage. The cats can come inside the house, and from there I let them outside or they go back in the garage.
It's worked ok, but there have been a few accidents when kitties are trapped in the house with no access to a box.
I always put them out in the garage every night with the litter boxes, food, and water. It's a routine. I've found that cats are destructive in the dark at night and I got fed up with having my things shredded and finding fur on my counter tops every morning. Yuck.
One of our cats is named Kahleesi. She was found out in the woods on a cliff overlooking the Kentucky river, back when we lived at the cabin. She was a teeny, tiny rut of a kitten and very sick with an upper respiratory infection.
After lots of love and care she recovered, though she still has a gross cough two years later. But she never grew much. She only weighs 4-5 pounds as an adult. She's very, very loving. But she's also particular. I am her only person. I guess because I hand fed her and spent so much time helping her live as a tiny kitten. She is terrified of other people. When she gets scared she hides for days at a time. Since she's so small she can hide very well.
So when the kids and I left to come to Kentucky Kahleesi was doing what she always does during the day: hiding in my bedroom. At night when I get in bed she comes out and lays on me and purrs for a little while before I get up and put her in the garage.
I was in a hurry to leave on Sunday afternoon. I forgot she was in the bedroom. The other cats were already in the garage. She apparently peed on our bed. (Again! She was the culprit last week I guess!) Tyler noticed her in there this morning and thought he could just pick her up and put her outside.
It did not go well.
She was so terrified of him that she peed all over his work clothes. He was so mad. Bwahaha! Since when do cats pee on people!?! That's so a lowly dog thing to do.
Then she scratched the hell out of his arms. When she gets scared she tends to cling to you.
You know, lovingly like a baby monkey hanging onto its mama with sharp finger nails.
Tyler was forced to fling her off of him in order to save his skin from complete shredding.
She ran back upstairs to her safe spot under our bed.
He cannot get her out. He has called me raging about this tiny cat multiple times.
Yes dear, I'm in Kentucky taking care of our three kids alone while I'm sick with a cold. Ada is also very sick and has a sinus infection along with a cough that makes her gag. I'm managing a circus here. I'm sorry you're fighting with my cat…
He has finally taken my suggestion of setting up a litter box and food/water in our master bathroom for her.
I told him I needed to Skype with the cat so that I could calm her down, but he suggested that would be ridiculous.

I am very happy with the 3 videos I had The Contemporary Agency work on. Rob came up with a detailed plan to show all areas of my business: salon tour, onsite services, and a profile video that showcased everything we do. He was professional, listened to what I wanted, accomodating and the videos turned out better than I expected.

Hey guys! Yesterday I received my Glam Bag for this month. I've been waiting for this bag after the success of my bag last month, so I had really high expectations for this bag, and Ipsy always delivers. So, here's my review of the Beauty Rocks bag!
First in this bag was the Starlooks Luscious Longwear Lip Pencil in the shade Naked. Ipsy introduced me to Starlooks in one of my first bags, and now they're my go-to place for all things eyeliner. I was really excited to try out this new product by them, and they didn't disappoint. I'm usually not a fan of lip pencils, but this product made me open my eyes. It was so easy to apply and made it easy to get full coverage. It also surprised me by being really moisturizing. I love a product with a gorgeous color that I don't need to use lip balm with!
Next is the Pop! Goes the Shadow by Elizabeth Mott. I received this in the color Champagne. I really love this color, but it's one of those that you already have a million of. It adds a really nice shimmer and the color is really cute with anything. The nude color is really in for this summer, so it'll serve you well in the coming months.
Next is the Coastal Shadow Medium Shadow Brush. It's made from natural fibers and has fantastic quality. It makes for really easy shadow application and allows me to get a really even covering. I use this mainly for defining my crease, and I get a perfect look every time.
My least favorite product in this bag was the Dr. Brandt Microdermabrasion. It's a skin moisturizer that is a lot like a sugar scrub. I prefer sugar scrubs because I can make them myself and they are more moisturizing. I also don't really like using products on my face not issued by my dermatologist. One thing I really did like about it was the scent. It smelled like fresh lemons, and the citrus scent is really refreshing.
I saved the best for last with this bag. This is the Urban Decay 24/4 Velvet Glide-On Eye Pencil. This is the darkest liner I have ever used and is accurately described a blacker-than-black. This is the best eyeliner I have ever used. It goes on so easily and creates a perfect, defined line that I adore. I can't stress how much I love this pencil.
I hope you liked this, and if you're interested in subscribing to My Glam Bag and receiving a $10 bag each month, check it out at ipsy.com!

In this explosive story of revenge and urban violence, Charles Bronson plays Paul Kersey, a bleeding-heart liberal who has a change of opinion after his wife and daughter are violently attacked by a gang of thugs in their apartment. His daughter is raped, his wife raped and murdered. Bronson then turns vigilante as he stalks the mean streets of New York on the prowl for muggers, hoodlums and the like. A violent, controversial film which is frank and original in its treatment of urban crime and the average citizen's helplessness in dealing with it.
Charles Bronson returns with a vengeance in this sequel to the popular crime thriller DEATH WISH. Bronson reprises his role as vigilante Paul Kersey, whose family is once again victimized after moving to Los Angeles from New York. Kersey is mugged by a gang of street punks who later break into his home and brutally assault his maid and daughter, resulting in their deaths.
Paul Kersey has moved from LA to New York City to escape the crime and begin anew. But after an dear friend is murdered, the architect-turned-vigilante begins to deliver his own inimitable kind of street justice. The rugged Mr. Bronson is back again as Paul Kersey, the Korean War vet who loves to lure street thugs to surprise endings.
When his girlfriend's daughter overdoses on toxic "crack," vigilante Paul Kersey explodes into action in an all-out war to exterminate the cocaine network in L.A.
Aging ex-vigilante Paul Kersey has made a quiet life for himself: he's now a teacher, and engaged to a lovely woman, Olivia. But when Olivia's clothing business is menaced by mobsters -- led by her sadistic ex-husband -- Paul reverts to his old gun-totin', thug-wastin' tendencies, as he attempts to deliver his own brand of justice in a variety of grisly ways.

The Cactus Speaks: 'So we all meet again…'
[EDITOR'S NOTE: This column by Earl Gipson is a view of SeaTac city government. It does not necessarily reflect the views of The SeaTac Blog nor its staff. We are seeking additional regular columnists to reflect different opinions and views of SeaTac residents. Those interested can e-mail us at [email protected].]
by Earl Gipson
Just a couple of meetings I managed to attend…
Town Hall Meeting 04/05/16
The Council fielded most questions quite well to the (roughly) 50 residents present, however the lingering issues of parking, trash, code enforcement, etc. continue to dog and degrade our city. Some residents there, point blank, said they are seriously considering leaving because of it. Hold on a bit longer, I say.
It was also brought out that many of our issues are a lack of money and impact mitigation from the airport. Sea-Tac Airport is going to charge a $5 fee for each Uber trip pickup, but our City gets nada of that nor were we consulted or invited to the table.
Sharing, equitable compensation, and mitigation are not the airport's strong suits.
Our relationship with the Port: My semi-warped view
Let me use an analogy (you noticed I love these) to describe our relationship with the airport. Our ship (City of SeaTac) has been at sea a long time and we are running out of fresh water, food, and a couple of mutinies have occurred fighting over scraps (budget, code enforcement, Councilmember replacement etc.).
We have known there were supplies close by (Port of Seattle) but to turn the ship's prow in that direction takes a cooperative effort by the crew (staff) and officers (City Council) and oarsmen (residents) to point us at the re-supply line.
We are/were simply going in circles as the left/right oarsmen (residents divided) were paddling in opposite directions depending on what the uncooperative officers told them (Council). The rest of the crew (staff) are just trying not to get thrown overboard as we come close to paddling over the edge of the historically flat earth (it's round. I know. ha-ha).
The mighty ship of SeaTac is slowly turning and is aiming straight at the re-supply line (Port of Seattle) lest we starve, sink, or kill each other in another mutiny. I ask the Port welcome us and help (re-negotiation of the ILA). We don't know how many cannons or any nukes we may have in the cargo hold (been too busy to look) but I'm sure we will examine what's down there very soon. Our ship seems to have nothing to lose at this point.
Yet another nautical theme. Did I get too carried away with this one?
Special Council Meeting 04/06/16
It wasn't very special. This is SeaTac. Interim City Manager (Mr. Payne) resigns, Council accepts it, designates Acting City Manager (CED Director Joe Scorcio). Moving on and turning/aiming the ship of SeaTac at what we really need to survive.
Cactus Music Selection
Don't read too much into this (maybe the Port could). It is a nice melody before bedtime.
Eyes of Truth-Enigma 1994:

A Perfect SpyeBook - 2011
From the critics
Community Activity
CommentAdd a Comment
I hadn't even heard of this chap before last week when Terry Gross called him the quintessential spy novelist and ex member of MI6. I might could be a little intrigued by everything he writes about: spies, conspiracies and cultural and regional lingo. A British lass from Pony Club had me from her first sentence, "Mind the cones." I've been using "mind the..." ever since. We now know building 7 fell at free fall speed on 9/11 with nano thermite found everywhere in an obvious controlled demolition. This false flag event and Hegelian dialectic in addition to spy intelligence got us into never ending wars based on yellah cake and other fake news propagated by the weaponized media. It's almost as if the system is made to feed, protect and constantly kill for the empire whose storied (if not phony) creation myth came ordained by the Lord himself.
