On April 16, 2001 at 12:01h (local time) at the Ulithi Atoll in the Federated States of Micronesia, the USS Mississinewa, the ghost ship of Ulithil Lagoon, is located. This ended an odyssey that began May 18, 1944 when the ship was commissioned. Fifty-seven years earlier the USS Mississinewa had been sunk by Japan's secret weapon. The Japanese Kaiten was an under water craft, designed as a human torpedo and built solely as a suicide weapon. Duty, honor, patriotism, courage, hope and faith. These words inspired countless members of the 20th Century s Greatest Generation who fought for the United States in WWII, the greatest conflict in human history. The author heard the same word from aging Japanese veterans who fought to save Japan from inevitable defeat.
"synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title.
Michael Mair for over a decade spoke to many veterans on both sides as he sought to tell the story of the USS Mississinewa and her sailors including his father, Jack; and Japan s desperate weapon, the Kaiten. Oil, Fire and Fate reveals the compelling story.

I've been up since 4.30am and it's now approaching midnight as I finish slicing through a bucket of celery, capsicum and carrot and I feel like the only way to get some quality sleep is to visit the local embalmers and ask them to do me live.
Reservoir Mum and I are about half way through preparing a mountain of food for Tyson's second birthday party. I pause to drink from my chilled bottle of Boags Classic Blonde and sit back in my chair as my left eyelid closes. The right eyelid flutters and then opens wearily, regretfully – accepting its turn to keep watch.
There may be no end to this. Tyson is the sleep-hater from hell. During the day he has one of the cutest faces the world has ever seen but at night horns grow out of his head and he peers through the darkness with shiny red cat-eyes as he calls my name backwards. 'Yddaaad!' he calls, 'Yddaaaad!!' I groan and moan and stay in bed and then get out of bed and trip over myself and try the latest sleep routine/trick/potion that the newest baby-whispering/smartypants/fortune-teller has prescribed until I'm back downstairs and cute-face is giving me the biggest stupidest grin and asking for 'book! book!' and I have no ability to do anything but love the little devil.
When I refocus on Reservoir Mum she's turned into a cake genius again. She's hypnotizing a slab of sponge into a Hi 5 hand with the slow skilled movement of her carving knife.
'Finally, the world has righted itself. My wife is baking cakes while I sit idly by drinking beer. Wait here a sec,' I say, running off to the bedroom. When I return I am wearing a white sweat-stained singlet and a pair of blue Stubby Shorts and a pair of thongs. I sit back down, pick up my beer and allow my stomach to bulge into a fair dinkum Aussie pot. My only regret is that I didn't let my side-hair grow long. I would love to try a comb-over.
'Continue,' I tell her.
Reservoir Mum laughs and then smiles in such a kind way that it takes me by surprise until I realize that she's reminiscing. 'I saw a young couple at Uni today,' she says. 'They were in that 'new' phase where they were all over each other. It was cute. It reminded me of when we were first going out and I'd catch the train to see you and as it pulled into the Warrnambool station I'd be looking out the window… and then I'd see you… a big guy in a daggy t-shirt there to pick me up. So exciting.'
There is suddenly a crazy emotional happiness inside me that forces both eyes to open for duty at the same time. I remember driving to the station, waiting for her there, hearing the whistle of the approaching train and then searching for her gorgeous face through the emerging crowd. It was such great fun and it was exciting but even as I acknowledge the brilliance of that part of our lives I recognize that I also feel excited about now – for each other and for what we have around us. Every day since then has been brand new. Each week has been surprising. Every year has been a special kind of crazy. There's always something memorable just around the corner and Tyson's second birthday is tomorrow!
'I'm still excited!' I tell her, as I sit up straight, suck my pot in to a chiseled six-pack of man-muscle and pick up a knife.
There is still some work to do and I don't care if I sacrifice hours of sleep to do it. Tomorrow Tyson's gorgeous face will smile above Reservoir Mum's brilliant cake and Archie and Lewis will bounce around him and that crazy emotional happiness will come to smother me again… and again… and again!
Happy Birthday Tyson, my crazy little devil. You have a way of driving me to exhaustion at the same time that you carry me through each day. For some reason the advice I offered last year seems so tailor-made for you that I want to offer it to you again. Maybe one year, a long way down the track, you'll be able to tell me why.
There'll be no shortage of people in your life to tell you to walk the straight and narrow, to act right and do as you're told, to be thrifty and work hard at a sensible career and plan ahead and build a nest-egg. And there'll be a bunch of words about mortgages and investments and an endless line of people telling you how to talk and what to wear and where to sign your name and… I think it's probably a good idea to listen to that sort of advice at least some of the time, but my advice to you is just a little different.
Toe-ing the line's a good thing in small doses but goose-stepping your way behind the goose-stepper in front of you can narrow your vision and I want you to know that you can just shuffle to the side and watch the line go past for a while if life starts to seem repetitive and unfulfilling.
Tys, I want to tell you to go a little crazy and I don't mean go crazy occasionally, I mean go a little crazy permanently. Carry it around forever. Give an off-beat idea a go and attack it as if it's the best idea the world's ever seen and if it fails or runs its course or gets boring, move on to the next off-beat idea with the same intensity and feel free to change your mind from one day to the next if that's what it takes to keep you bounding out of bed with a feeling that today's the day!
And remember Mum, Dad, Archie and Lewis are always here for you, no matter what you do, and even though this is something you already knew, I just want to reiterate that it's true, and … umm…. Peek-a-boo!

Ride past The Volunteer, a working replica of one of the old canal barges. Meet Molly and Sally, the mules who tow the Volunteer through the manually operated locks. And take a few minutes to explore the historic Isaac Ludwig Mill.
You'll share one riverside rest stop with road riders along the way and return for lunch via some paved surfaces and the grassy South Fork of the Wabash Cannonball trail.
* Some sections of the trail are very rough. MTB or fat tires recommended! *

June 9 – One in seven Canadians tuned into the FIFA Women's World Cup Canada 2015 kickoff match on June 6.
(WFI) USA Bid Committee Chairman Sunil Gulati has conceded that the 2018 World Cup Finals are likely to be awarded to Europe, but says his country will remain "right in the mix" until the bidding process concludes in December.
South Africa 2010 World Cup chief Danny Jordaan and deputy police minister Fikile Mbalula say security efforts for the Confederations Cup have been outstanding. They insist a string of isolated incidents should not be taken out of context.

The MRR Boys! and the rest of the Family...
23 year old AQHA Gelding, with us since 1991. AKA The Wonder Horse. Stephen's well trained western performance horse, super honest, hard worker, great herd leader! He was trained by Chris Bugenig and she did a super job with him. His solid personality gave me my start on the Drill Team with The Painted Ladies (even though he wasn't a Paint, he blended in nicely and they needed a HARD worker - which we both were!). Though he never, ever, ever liked the flags when we had to carry them, but he still did his best every time.
Nearly retired due to arthritis issues but still teaching new kids
28 year old Quarter/Arab Cross Gelding, mine since 1989. Great trail horse, no work ethic, but a perfect best friend! We've ridden hundreds of miles around Rocklin, Loomis, Penryn and Folsom Lake. This horse taught me so much - when I thought I knew everything! - and I love him with all my heart. It is such an honor to have such a loving, sweet horse in my life, and such a blessing to have had him for 20 years and hopefully many more!
Fully retired, pasture sound and so sweet!
13 year old APHA Gelding, with us since 2003 My equine soul-mate - Drill and Parade horse. He was a scared boy when I got him, but after a year of all sorts of desensitization and training, he was a great drill horse (still had a few issues!). I've ridden him in rodeos, horse shows and parades from Fortuna to LA and many places in between. He taught me so many things, one of the biggest is that I can have fun with a horse who cannot be ridden and that the non-riding part of the relationship is so very valuable.
Fully retired due to severe navicular disease. Pasture sound, and in charge of the herd, for the most part - but always with a nod of respect to the real boss, Mr. Moon.
20 year old Friesian Gelding, with us since Dec 2005. Wonderful, sweet, incredibly lazy, Prix St Georges Level Dressage Horse. Simon came to us from the incredible Knapp Friesians, he was trained to drive, and has performed in dressage competitions and entertainment shows all over the Western US and beyond. His Prix St. Georges championships were in the Oregon Dressage Society and FHANA (Friesian Horse Assn of North America - I think). He was retired due to a stifle injury and the Knapps wanted him to live out his retirement as a "pet" and what better place to do that than MoonRock Ranch? We were able to rehab his injury and we have been enjoying learning how to ride dressage on a lazy horse (it's a lot of work that way!). He can still piaffe and passage and he does flying lead changes easily, in that way he can be a blast to ride!
Still going strong, favorite mount of many barn kids.
13 year old Quarter Horse Gelding, Lauren's boy and dream-pony. He's been with Lauren and MoonRock Ranch since October 2006. Nicknamed The Adventure Pony, he's full of mischief and love for Lauren! Picks on all the horses all the time - he's a Bully with a capital B! He's pretty darn good to Lauren, he challenges her just about the right amount, and helps her learn so much. He makes her laugh - which I know she loves a lot!
11 year old Quarter/Thoroughbred Cross Gelding, at MRR since Feb 2008. Lost his best friend, our beloved Jessica, now we are blessed with his gregarious, friendly personality. He LOVES the camera, loves to smile for pictures or for carrots. He's all boy - gets bit and kicked and bumped and bruised and never seems to care enough to stay out of the way of future scuffles, and never seems to come out on top! He loves to learn, but can get scared easily and when he does, watch out, he moves fast! But if he's not scared, you'd better bring on the fun stuff, because he doesn't like to get bored! He's a very smart horse with a very friendly attitude - and he's a great challenge.
The Dog
7 year old Doberman (Dober-girl), her registered name is Shasta, Princess of MoonRock Ranch. She does not act like a princess, though, that's for sure! She is an awesome dog, highly active, loves to play with the horses, with other dogs, with anything that moves fast or runs & plays. She's good to the cats, and to the goats, but you just better not be a skunk. She will take you OUT!
|The Cats
|We brought 9 cats to MoonRock
Ranch in 2000, and picked up another 2 since then, sadly we've had to say
goodbye to many of them...
Fraidy Cat left us when she was about 19, a beautiful old soul
Boogie (aka Boogerchin) succumbed to severe anemia due to a mysterious bone marrow disease at about 13 years old. Beautiful boy.
Bumpster Bear Sweet, sweet girl, got very ill from fatty liver disease (twice), but ultimately we lost her due to a mistake by a vet, she was 14.
Buster - the only young one we've ever lost, disappeared one night after little more than a year with us - he was ONE of a kind for sure and we miss not being able to watch him grow up. Pretty sure someone took him home - he was friendly to a fault!
CK, our beloved Coyote Killer - the most amazing cat anyone could ever have, left this world for reasons we don't understand at 18+. You were the best!
Punkinhead (aka Morris), another of the world's most amazing cats, lost his battle with Kidney disease at 17+ (see Punkin's Memorial Video here)
Itty Bitty Spitty Kitty came into this world hissing and spitting and everyone, she didn't change much in her 13 years, but we loved her just the same. She had a couple of illnesses and eventually just hurt too much.
We still have all these precious ones in our lives:
Sasha - our matriarch. Such a gentle soul, she has been with us for 20 years! Still plays like a kitten every time I pull off a piece of baling twine!
Devil Kitty - Boogie and Bump were her siblings, thankfully this strange little girl got better genetics than her sis and bro... She now waffles between being a full-time house cat and a full time barn cat with Shasha (there's better food out where Sasha lives!).
Charlie is about 13 and though he looks like a pretty boy, he is quite the outdoorsman. When he's at home - only about once or twice a week in good weather - he loves getting brushed and petted, but mostly he lives like a wildcat!
Slinky, our newest addition is only 2 years old and he also thought he was a wild outdoor cat, then he broke his leg and had to be laid up for about 2 1/2 months. Now he is 100% healed, loves his indoor life, and limits most of his outdoor antics to a couple hours in the morning. He is an extremely good mouser and for that we are grateful!
The Goats
Belle & Li'l Beau.
Our newest babies... 2 Nigerian Dwarf Goats,
There has never been any sweeter, friendlier, cuter or crazier goats! We've had our hearts stolen by these little kids - they make us pull out our hair in frustration one minute, laugh the next minute and melt our hearts into a puddle the minute after that. They climb rocks and trees (and people), dance, bounce and run like the wind, and do all sorts of things that amaze us and make us laugh!

3LETTERMAN Confronts Chris UNBIAS on Battle Rap Arena
I told you that I didn't think this shyt wuz ova. 3Letterman has taken center stage in the clash of the bloggers. Here's the situation as I understand it. I guess Chris UnBias was a guest on Battle Rap Arena recently and 3Letter capitolized on the opportunity to speak the infamous blogger over the airwaves. Here's the audio of the conversation that happened when 3Letterman called into the show [to talk to Chris].
If you didn't know, Chris made several allusions to the AngryFan Movement during his latest "The Crown" recap. I'll be posting that soon. Below is the original video that 3 was referring to. If you look closely you can see that Chris accidentally exposed phone numbers while showing some of the screenshots.
I believe that this is clear evidence that the blog war will continue….lol, hey…

In a major case next spring, the Supreme Court will consider whether it's constitutional for the federal government to refuse to recognize same sex marriage.
The justices have several options on how to come down in the Windsor v. United States challenge to Section 3 of the 1996 Defense of Marriage Act, which denies federal benefits to gay couples that are legally married in their states.
Earlier this week TPM gamed out the potential outcomes on Proposition 8, the other big same sex marriage case the Court decided to hear regarding whether states like California can outlaw gay marriage.
Here's how legal experts say they might rule in the unrelated DOMA case, which deals with federal law.1) Strike Down DOMA
The Court could determine that Section 3 of the Defense of Marriage Act violates the Constitution's guarantee of equal protection for all under the law. In that scenario, gay couples in states like Massachusetts and Maine would begin to receive federal perks for married couples such as retirement and tax benefits.
The reach of such a decision would be important for future gay marriage battles.
"Of course, if they strike it down they could write the opinion narrowly, just about Section 3 of DOMA, or broadly in a way that recognizes a constitutional right to marriage equality," says Erwin Chemerinsky, a constitutional law professor at UC-Irvine.
2) Uphold DOMA
The majority of justices could find Section 3 of DOMA valid under the Constitution. That would enshrine a status quo where gay married couples in states where same sex marriage is legal are treated differently than their straight counterparts under federal law.
Along with being denied tax and Social Security survivor benefits, gays would continue to not have the ability to sponsor foreign spouses for legal immigration status, as straight married couples are permitted to do.
3) Punt
The Supreme Court could potentially dismiss the case on procedural grounds. The case is unusual in that the Obama administration — the designated defendant for a federal law — has refused to vouch for DOMA. House Republicans retained counsel to defend the law. The justices may decide that the case was not properly defended and remand it to the lower courts to try again.
"One possibility is that the Court avoids the DOMA question entirely," said Adam Winkler, a law professor at UCLA. "The Court could say that the House committee that's defending DOMA is not a proper party to the case. Because the Obama administration has refused to defend DOMA, this would mean that the case would be sent back to the lower courts."
Eventually, however, the case is likely to find its way back to the Supreme Court.

Porcelain Veneers – Cranbrook Dentist – Victoria Avenue Dental
An excellent alternative to crowns are porcelain veneers that can perfect your smile by masking stains, hiding chips, correcting misalignment, and creating uniformity. Veneers, which are made of thin customized porcelain material are designed to slide over the teeth, look incredibly natural, are long-lasting, and are relatively easy to apply.
Since veneers are individually sculpted for each patient, it is nearly impossible to tell the difference between a veneer and a natural tooth. Unlike natural teeth, custom-made veneers resist coffee and tea stains, and cigarette smoke because they are made of high-tech materials.
With veneers—as opposed to crowns—your natural teeth remain largely intact with only a minimal amount being altered to fit the veneer.

I have never seen anything like it. It's appalling when you think about the fact that our left-leaning media elites are actually using Democrats as propaganda. Can you believe it?
You see, in most totalitarian, leftist or Marxists societies you have the government that tells the media what to report. In our country it isn't the government telling the media what to say, it's the media calling the shots on what agenda our government leaders must follow. It is not only strange to witness, but it is frightening when you consider the implications.
For example, if MSNBC and CNN, and hence, the New York Times, the Washington Post and others who follow suit, decide that Bob Barr is the fall guy for Trump, or Trump's puppet, members of Congress echo this concern in hearings such as you might have witnessed yesterday. You have priority being set – not by members of Congress – but instead, by high-profile anchors (and television executives along with social media giants) who have a specific agenda. Political leaders receive free press time when they work with the media on the same talking points. And you can bet Schiff, Harris and even Hillary, love the adulation and a long-lasting political career they receive with cameras and facetime on TV to help them along.
The alignment of the press and congressional Democrats means that government policy, and indeed even public opinion, is being swayed by an activist few influential media executives (and fellow academics) who feel they know what is best for society. If this small but potent group believes LGBT should be an issue, or that Transgenderism should be an issue, or Climate Change should be an issue, or #Me Too should be an issue, then that is what will be fed into the echo-chamber, reaching all the way to Washington.
And this didn't just start recently. The eventual morphing of the media-government complex has been emerging for decades, probably starting in the as a reaction against the Vietnam war in 1965, which soon became the civil rights movement, the women's lib movement, the environmental movement, the LGBT movement and lastly, the anti-Trump movement of trying to remove a sitting and duly elected president who, by the way, could care less about all of those movements because he believes government should do and cost less, not more. A policy that seems to be working despite the disdain from the Left-wing media elite who exert tremendous influence with our elected political leaders.
And so Trump has done us a favor. He has exposed the media for what they are, which is to say they are not a fair and free press, but an activist cause that has the full support of politicians who want media coverage and want social media populist support. It's a great relationship really, unless of course you are a conservative, a Christian, a wealthy person, or other non-minority person. The media, pop culture, education, public policy and Democrats in Congress belong only to the Left.
And this is why you have the media driving government policy in America.
Could it really be all about the ratings?

It is in fact a hands off middleman that wants to obfuscate the direct link between project developers, that has the effect of limiting Australian consumer options for legal recourse other than to fly to the host country and commence legal action there. The ACCC will not have your back, when companies successfully complete their project and 'decide' not to fulfill on their rewards selectively with Australians.

3D printing has been around for some time now, but for all that, it's still a relatively new technology. As such, it undergoes shifts and sees new trends much more frequently than older technologies.
Some of this is due to experimentation, but other trends stem from different forces at work – the adoption of 3D printing technology by entrepreneurs, small businesses and consumers, for instance.
What are the new trends that are dominating and shaping the industry? Let's take a quick look.
Most Common Uses
3D printing has an incredible range of uses between the various fields that use this technology. However, some uses have become much more common than others. According to 3D Hubs, the most popular print categories today in the US are prototyping, hobby/DIY, and gadgets, in that order, ranked by average order value. Scale modeling, household use and art fall beneath those areas.
With that being said, 3D Hubs also notes that there is a significant increase in the number of consumer goods being produced at home, so these numbers are slightly skewed, as they are based on the dollar value of ordered 3D products, not on the volume of at-home jobs.
Where the Growth Is
It's tempting to think that 3D printer adoption and growth of the industry is primarily centered on the US, but that's actually wrong. While the US does account for some of the fastest growing areas in terms of printing adoption, the international scene is far stronger.
3D Hubs points out that the fastest growing areas of adoption are actually centered outside the US, with Milan seeing 10.7% of month-over-month growth. Paris saw 16.4% growth. Both New York and Los Angeles made the list, but so did cities like Antwerp, Rotterdam, Eindhoven, London and Den Haag.
Most Popular Printers
It's interesting to note the different technologies that dominate various global regions in the 3D printing industry. There's a great deal of disparity here, with no clear winner to the question of which company is the most popular.
While North Americans seem to prefer MakerBot (with the Replicator 2 and 2X taking first and second place), Europe prefers the Ultimaker 1 and 2. South America prefers RepRap, with MakerBot coming in second. The Asia Pacific region has a preference for the MakerBot Replicator 2, but the 2X falls to third place, behind other options.
With that being said, there are a few players in the game that are more equal than others. Stratasys remains the largest single force at work, but RepRap comes in second. Ultimaker takes third place, with 3D Systems bringing up the rear.
Be aware that each individual 3D printing company's market share has dropped over the last few months as more and more competing models come on the scene. Eventually, even the Big 3 will lose their dominance, at least to some extent, as product availability democratizes the industry.

After finishing our journey on the Ecuadorian coast with Miriam, we headed to Mindo, a village located in the mountains west of Quito, at the heart of a huge nature reserve.
This destination is famous for its exceptional nature, its countless bird, butterfly and orchid species, and its high-quality cacao. Very (too much?) touristic but nevertheless a place to see in Ecuador!
A long hitchhiking day
Friday 1st March 2019
We said goodbye to our lovely hosts from the Casa del Cacique (we wish we could have stayed longer and they really insisted on it, but we were unfortunately running out of time) and started hitchhiking early in the morning. We had a long way to go to reach Mindo, located in the jungle about two hours before Quito.
It took us not less than 7 different cars to reach our destination, including an old truck (we needed this in our hitchhiking experiences!), some very friendly twin sisters, two young guys that were driving like pilots… and during our longest waiting time (about 30 min), the owners of the house in front of which we were waiting offered us some oranges. So unexpected and adorable!
When finally in Mindo, we immediately found a nice hostel where to get some rest. Hitchhiking is a nice experience but it's particularly tiring, especially as you keep on telling always the same story (where you come from, where you're going, for how long you've been traveling, etc.).
Our first priority was then to go to the river crossing the village, so as to get a bath. Nothing better to get our heads straight and get immediately re-energized!
A day off

Not such an interesting day… we took our time, did some grocery shopping, strolled in the village, did some yoga and got some rest.
It happened to be long weekend in Ecuador (Monday and Thursday would be holidays because of the carnival). Mindo was already full of tourists and it would apparently be even worse over the two next coming days.
We also tried some chocolate (unmissable in Mindo), but prices were really prohibitive (5$ for a 60g bar), so we resisted to the temptation of buying some. We thought it would be the ideal place to make our stocks but it was actually a real luxury!
The waterfalls just for us
Sunday 3rd March 2019
As the whole region of Mindo is protected by the nature reserve, every single activity or even just a walk has a cost. We then decided with Miriam to leave at dawn to the park Santuario de Cascadas, so as to get in and out before the guards would be present. This meant we wouldn't be able to use the cable car in the park but we didn't mind it.
We left our hostel as it was still dark and walked at a fast pace for about 6 km to reach the entrance of the park. Once inside, we continued at this sustained pace, following a small trail going up and down through the jungle, as the first rays of light were rising.
We reached a first waterfall and then went on to the main one of the park, called "la Reina" (= the Queen) along a trail steeply going up and down for 3 km. The vegetation was dense, the birds were singing all around, and the air was so wet that we were literally soaked.
As we arrived at the waterfall, the air was much fresher, which was not unpleasant… but we couldn't stay long as we still had to get out of the park before the arrival of the guards. We then came back at the same intense pace.
We finally went out around 8.30. There was no one at the entrance yet, mission accomplished! A bit further down on the road, we came across a pick-up passing with all the guards inside, but we were already out of "danger".
Lots of thrills above the canopy
As we were going down the road already taken in the morning, we discovered the landscapes that we had not seen in the dark. Some cars were already heading to the waterfalls; the day would be very busy with the long weekend, and we felt even happier to have enjoyed the park on our own.
By 9 a.m., we were already at the entrance of a zip line park, which we were tempted to try. We were the first clients and could have a tour straight away, so we didn't need much more to be decided.
We then started a tour including 10 different zip lines, with two guides just for us. It was a first for me and I immediately loved it, without any surprise! After seeing the forest from below, it was ideal to get the chance to admire it from above.
The tour consists in several different zip lines, some faster than others, some in which we could be as a "super-chica" (= superwoman) or "mariposa" (= butterfly), with the head upside down… such a thrill!
We finished the adventure with a "Tarzan Swing" jump, a great moment of adrenaline!
Some well-deserved rest
We walked back to Mindo around 10.30 a.m. We had already seen that the zip lines were getting full as we were finishing our tour, but it was even worse as we reached the road. The amount of cars – all full of people – was impressive, and even scaring. That was also definitely a good reason for waking up so early, so as to enjoy these activities in optimal conditions!
Once in Mindo, we wanted to go to the river to get refreshed after these intense 18 km and the zip line, but there also it was also overcrowded… which was not for us! We then spent the afternoon chilling at the so pleasant last floor of our hostel, listening to the sound of the rain on the roof and admiring the hummingbirds coming back and forth at the windows.
We had to reach Quito by the following day as Miriam had her flight back to the States; but this last day was a perfect conclusion of our trip together.
To be continued…
Practical infos
Melyang Hostal: 6$ per night in a 6-bed dorm. Familiar and welcoming hostel, with a very pleasant atmosphere. Carlo, the owner, is sweet and full of good tips. The last stair is especially nice, with lots of hammocks, beautiful views over the mountains and hummingbirds coming all day long to drink close to the windows.
Tarabita y santuario de cascadas de Mindo: 5$ the entrance. It includes a cable and two trails leading to 8 different waterfalls.
Mindo Canopy: C20$ for a tour with 10 different canopies and the optional « Tarzan swing » jump at the end. The quality-price ratio is excellent; it's hard to find a park with so many canopies for this price in Ecuador.

Financially Bankruptcy May Not Be Best
I'm Eric Lanigan with Lanigan and Lanigan
attorneys in Winter Park. We do bankruptcies and we do a lot of bankruptcies
the question that we always have to be asking ourselves and be honest with ourselves is
is bankruptcy the right answer for this particular client? I'm reminded of what a doctor told
me one time talking about medical specialists and he said, you know if what you own is a
hammer then everything you see is a nail. And that obviously means that if you've got
a hammer and you make money pounding nails, then you see money as everything is a nail
that needs to be pounded. And we always have to double check ourselves
to make sure that if we are thinking about things not always just thinking about things
in a bankruptcy context but looking at things in the context of is bankruptcy the solution
to the individuals' problem? And what brings this to light is a case that
we recently had with a couple with very high incomes, both of them very successful. Income
in probably in the neighborhood of $35,000 a month combined income. The problem was that
is that several years ago they had gotten involved in several very high end real estate
investments and signed guarantees on something like four and a half million dollars worth
of loans. And all of these real estate projects and
another business venture all collapsed and so while they have a very high income level,
they're suddenly staring at four and a half million dollars in business debt and another
million and half dollars in personal debt. And given their ages this is debt that
they were not going to be able to pay. Now, the first blush was well because their
debt is primarily business related, they could file a Chapter 7 bankruptcy and just wipe
it all out. And because of the exception in the bankruptcy code that you do not have to
meet stay under the income levels for filing to qualify for Chapter 7 if in fact your debt
is primarily business debt and if it is, then your income level as far as making too much
money to file chapter 7 is now irrelevant. There may be other factors but that is at
least irrelevant. So that would be a very easy solution for those individuals. However
what we found out is that they entered into a settlement agreement on the largest of the
debts which was in excess of three million dollars where they would be paying a very
very small fraction of that three million dollars and the problem was every agreement
like that I've ever seen in my entire working career said that if you default on that obligation
then the debt reverts back to the original amount. This agreement for whatever reason
it did not. So even though they defaulted on that settlement agreement on the debt it
did not go back, their liability, did not go back to the original three and a half million
dollars. So they could not file a chapter 7 bankruptcy. So what you have to be careful of is if you've
got a hammer and every problem is a nail then the first thing you say is well we'll file
Chapter 13 bankruptcy and we'll go through the repayment of the debts through a structured
plan in Chapter 13. But the problem is with these individuals because their income is
so high they would've been paying well in excess of ten or $15,000 a month in payments
through Chapter 13 Bankruptcy. Well if you're going to pay that much money you don't need
bankruptcy to settle your debts. And the reality is a good debt settlement slash asset protection
plan would ultimately get those debts settled for way way less than that. So you have to be honest with yourself and
say Chapter 13 in fact bankruptcy in its entirety is not the solution to your problem and this
is the way that you're going to have to deal with your problem. And move forward from there. So be very careful
that when you're talking to a lawyer that you're not in the situation where he's got
a hammer and therefore every problem's a nail. Again I'm Eric Lanigan with Lanigan and Lanigan
attorneys, Winter Park, Florida.

Stargate SG-1 (WEG D6)I found out that West End Games were originally working on a Stargate SG-1 RPG using their D6 system in 1998, just before their bankruptcy. Needless to say, it was never finished. But the lead designer published what he had in 1999, and it's still accessible (here). It seems to be quite playable, especially when filling in missing bits using the other D6 material. What is missing are mostly the background lore, examples, and appendices (equipment lists, etc). It's quite an interesting read, and a nice piece of history.
Stargate RPG Public Beta Rules
NickEast reviewed Sazeral's file in Public Beta Playtest's FilesPlease understand I mean no disrespect, but as a Stargate fan I have no choice but to be critical. To start with though, I really like the concept of using episodes and seasons to represent campaigns, which I already intended to do for my Stargate and Star Trek games. However, even considering this is an early version, I have to honestly say the game as a whole is nowhere near what I would expect for a Stargate RPG. I understand the lack of a lore overview and certain mistakes, as at this stage this is focused on rules and playtesting, so I'm giving it the benefit of the doubt. But my fears are confirmed with the very first paragraphs: this game seems to be firmly centered on Stargate Phoenix as opposed to the Stargate franchise. The entire book seems to be written entirely within a very limited scope, regardless if you could adapt the rules for a different kind of setting within the Stargate universe, and completely leaving out (references to) Atlantis and Destiny as possible settings (even if more detailed information and expansion rules would be reserved for a supplemental book). Based on the original AEG version, and other RPGs based on IPs (most recently Star Trek Adventures), this just seems too limited in its current form. So unfortunately, if these things don't change for the final book, I'm afraid I see no reason to spend my limited time and funds on it, at which point I will move on to other things. I will keep an eye on things to make a better judgment as things progress, but these are my feelings about where we stand now. I do sincerely hope the best for the designers and that those that do like this version of the RPG have a great time. I definitely don't want to detract from their fun. It just doesn't seem the version for me.
Another system?
NickEast replied to jaffacakes's topic in General DiscussionsThis is not a "hack" of D&D. It's a game designed entirely around the 5e SRD just like several others, so it can't just be ported over to other systems. It would also drastically increase the necessary work and playtesting, as no two systems are the same. And I have never heard of any (licensed) game being developed on multiple systems unless it was a separate iteration made by different designers. I'm not a huge fan of 5e either, and especially now I prefer it used Modiphius' 2d20 system (as used by Star Trek Adventures), but that's not possible as it's an in-house system without a public SRD.
Pretty excited about this.
NickEast replied to Stephen's topic in General DiscussionsThe game follows canon (season 6), so will likely not feature anything that wasn't confirmed to be part of the Stargate Program (Rangers and dogs) on the shows, at least not as part of the core game. You can always homebrew those features, wait for someone else to homebrew and share it, or perhaps in time it will be added officially. Not a bad idea though, I kinda like it.
Sg1, Atlantis, SGUniverse Content
NickEast replied to mcenal's topic in General DiscussionsI too would like to see source books about the different parts of the franchise. However, as it stands now the RPG seems to focus on a specific new setting called "Stargate Phoenix" and serve as a "spin off" of the series. Originally, though I'm sure they're already changing some elements after feedback, the "Tau'ri" weren't even going to be included as a playable "race"/species it seems. So I guess how much of the franchise will be included depends on the success of the Kickstarter campaign, because more books/material means more work, which means more costs. Based on my experience with Kickstarter campaigns, I'm quite confident these things could become stretch goals.
The original team is dead, there is nothing that says the new team has to have the exact same specialty. In my setting, SG-7 has just been newly assembled as a secondary to SG-1 (that is, a multi-focus team), hence why they are sent on the missions that my story centers around. That was also the point of me picking that team designation, as it was never seen nor heard from again throughout the rest of the series, so it contradicts nothing (though my plot may be very slightly contradictory)
The thing is, is this meant to be a "Stargate: Phoenix" RPG, a spinoff of the series, or an actual "Stargate" RPG? That should clarify things. Because usually when a TTRPG is developed based on an IP, it is meant to allow players to play within that IP's universe, with little restrictions other than what can fit in the books. The core rulebook usually explains the rules and provides character and adventure creation rules for the core elements of the series. Star Trek Adventures allows you to create Starfleet characters and ships to create stories like the shows, with supplements adding rules for other species. Star Wars allows you to play as Jedi, Sith, smugglers, soldiers, bounty hunters, etc. Everything you're used to in the shows/movies. The original Stargate RPG did the same, providing a breakdown of the story as it existed back then, describing the SGC, Goa'uld Empire, etc. Then it provided rules for all major species, Tau'ri, Jaffa, Tok'ra, Asgard, etc. It didn't restrict the kind of stories you could tell. It also provided character sheets based on all major characters, with supplements adding more NPCs based on each season that existed at that point. Based on what I read about "Phoenix", it's not something I'd be interested in. I want to create SG/AR teams, as cliche as that sounds but I imagine a lot of fans would want that too. I already have my own story that I wanted to write fan-fiction for, which is centered around SG-7 (since that team was neither seen nor heard from again after the original team was killed by Nirrti in "Singularity"), and it's also set during season 6. As SG teams, and Stargate Command, are such important aspects of the Stargate universe, I would think that and other canon material would have a higher priority than non-canon material designed just for the RPG. For example, Star Trek Adventures has a Living Campaign with a series of episodic stories taking place party in the TOS era and mainly in 2171 (S3/4 of DS9), based around four pre-designed starships and is set in a region of space designed specifically for the game. Yet the rules are not restricted just to those stories, everyone can still create any other kind of Star Trek story, even including canon material like the Enterprise or DS9 and their crew, set in any of the main eras.
According to the interview, all playable species will be alien and not Tau'ri. Why have you chosen this exactly? Because I find that kind of limiting, especially considering the Stargate franchise is about us Earthlings getting out there. Having variation by being able to play as different alien species is of course very good, but why remove the most important human race from the franchise? Granted, if you can play as a non-Earth human and if there are rules for Earth equipment like weapons and gadgets, then there shouldn't be a problem to create Tau'ri characters, but it still seems very odd for a Stargate game. That's almost like saying you can't play a human in Star Wars or as Starfleet in Star Trek.
The thing is, Stargate is going to use the 5e system. If that's the case, then the only way to support those kinds of roles like Carter is to use multiclassing. If any of the class, skill, and ability mechanics change, then it's not 5e anymore, but a different system. Does that mean they have to stick to the 5e mechanics 100%, I don't know. Maybe not. But it was probably a conscious choice to use 5e. And I for one think they should. Otherwise why use it in the first place and not just create a new system, or just create a setting supplement for universal systems like FATE or Savage Worlds? I backed The Spy Game on Kickstarter, which also uses 5e, and they explicitly stated that they chose 5e and they will stick to it. They're not going to change the mechanics, because otherwise choosing 5e would be pointless and would require more work. But of course that's just my opinion
Worried about lack of communication
NickEast replied to Heofon's topic in General DiscussionsMany small indie companies/teams still have (at least) 8 hours/day communication with the community, without it hurting their work. I'm part of a several of such communities (some which only have one or two-man teams) and the level of transparency helps in fostering a helpful and excited community. In general I myself am quite forgiving. However, this isn't just a small team working on their own game. They are using the Stargate IP. And based on MGM's track record, the lack of any sort of communication about anything Stargate-related makes me very suspicious and very uncertain whether I would want to spend my hard-earned money on supporting them. Now, I know MGM is not directly involved, but that has happened before and the history of Stargate in (video) gaming speaks for itself. But, maybe they're keeping it under wraps until the Kickstarter campaign, so that's why I didn't specifically mention anything.
D&D supports multiclassing. The original Spycraft-based Stargate RPG from Alderac used that to represent Carter.
Zat Guns
NickEast replied to Sazeral's topic in Game DevelopmentThe Zat was pretty consistent throughout the show. They eventually just dropped the "third shot disintegrates" feature because they felt it was too cheesy and/or OP. But it has been used very frequently to kill, it's just that it wasn't ever necessary to actually show that the people shot by it were actually dead, the story just moved on. Later in the show, most action shots happen very quickly, but you can hear Zats firing twice in rapid succession on many occasions. I always imagined that Zats work like tasers. When shot, they, at the very least, electrocute the target, which could have a stun effect and obviously be quite painful. When shot they leave a kind of residual energy (marked by the electrical discharge you see when someone or something is shot). That energy dissipates over a relatively short period of time. As long as that residual energy is present, a second shot could "overload" the target's nervous system and brain, and kill them instantly. With the "third shot" it could potentially be that the energy discharges so that the target's molecules, or rather atoms, are pulled apart, which disintegrates the target completely (like a Star Trek phaser at full power). If too much time passes, the energy dissipates and a shot would just "tase" the target again.
hello from "Pegasus galaxy" aka israel
NickEast replied to shilgiia's topic in IntroductionsWelcome! While not done for RPGs, I did once made a 3D Stargate simply by printing it out on paper, cutting it out and gluing layers together, using what is known as "3D foam pads", a kind of foam with adhesive on both sides, to add thickness. Then I just used LEGO to build the ramp and put it upright. It's very cheap, but still looks pretty good. I also included an iris and the event horizon that I could fit inside easily enough.
Pregen Characters
NickEast replied to Arcameides's topic in General DiscussionsHere's one thing I think we all would want: Furlings... am I right? Come to think of it, that gives me a cool campaign idea anyway... scuttles away to start writing...
AFAIK, 5e is very different from its predecessors. This version of a Stargate RPG simply cannot be a d20 Modern clone, because d20 Modern is based on 3e. In vanilla 5e, every character has the same fixed list of skills. The skill level depends on the abilities, which in turn can have racial (species) bonuses. Classes determine which skills someone is "proficient" in, which adds an additional bonus.
NickEast replied to NickEast's topic in General DiscussionsI've made my server somewhat ready. Though I'm a little apprehensive to just put the invite here, depending on what the rules are. Maybe an Admin can give their blessing, just to be on the safe side. EDIT: Well, as long as it's not going to cause a problem, here's the invite: https://discord.gg/GdnWurv Feel free to join me, but obviously there isn't much to do yet without having the rules. I'm at present working on Star Trek Adventures at the moment, implementing it in a VTT. But there's room for discussing Stargate, Star Trek, or RPGs in general.
Perhaps a Strength save rather than Dex, because the sheer force of the impact would knock someone down, so having a stronger footing (like a Jaffa) would allow them to remain standing. Standard kevlar is not worse than no armor, but it doesn't help much either. And later on, it is assumed that standard kevlar was replaced with a new type of material that does protect against a staff weapon's damage (but as demonstrated by Sgt. Siler, the blast still knocks you across the room). Armor degrading does happen IRL, but I believe it could add more complexity to tracking armor and health if not handled well. Perhaps a kind of "resistance" against damage (e.g. amount reduced from total damage) that decreases with certain hits, until 0 or a base AC bonus or something. But that's beyond the scope of the topic on staff weapons. I think weapons and armor should be balanced between screen accuracy and game balance. I agree that both staffs and zats are rather difficult to balance for a game, due to how different they can work between scenes/episodes, and how OP they can be.
Based on what I know from D&D 5e, I think staff weapons should have a relatively short-medium effective range, with penalties beyond that (don't know if disadvantage is enough though, but maybe it is). A hit should definitely cause a knockdown, damage depends on how weapons overall do damage and how it can be mitigated with armor and dodging. As a melee weapon it has also proven to be effective, so in close range/within reach it should be usable as such. In either case, it's obviously a two-handed weapon. I think there's a good balance between being inaccurate and causing a lot of damage, and the ability to dodge at medium to long range.
NickEast posted a topic in General DiscussionsI'm not sure if people already are in Discord servers, or if they are at all interested, but I have a proposition: Some time ago I got together with a few people in a Discord server about creating a world collaboratively and create RPG adventures for us to play in that world. Not much has come from that (yet), but based on recent developments there may still be use for the server as a whole. So now I had the idea of reorganizing the server for games I'd like to play, and anyone interested in joining me. This includes Stargate, Star Trek, and perhaps D&D 5e (in addition to the collaborative world). So my question to everyone here, especially those that are new to RPGs or still just an early beginner, if you're interested in joining me, feel free to ask. Right now I'm only gauging interest from here and on GateWorld to try and get more Stargate (and perhaps Star Trek) fans together.
What would you take from other games?
NickEast replied to Valdore's topic in Game DevelopmentTechnically, if this is based on 5e, not much would, or could, be taken from other non-5e games, as then it wouldn't be a 5e game anymore (with the exception of mechanics that don't exist in 5e but are necessary for Stargate). Especially if it changes the core mechanics of rolling a d20, and the abilities/skills. That said, I do think perhaps straight up using 5e is maybe not the right way for recreating the feeling of Stargate. I've grown rather fond of the 2d20 system used for Star Trek Adventures, though it has no OGL so that's out. But other than a feeling I have very little actual experience to think what would work best for things like zats. Usually I'm a stickler for canon, so by default I'd stick with the in-universe mechanics of such weapons/technology, but I can see that it won't always fit well for a game mechanic.
NickEast replied to bigox6942's topic in General DiscussionsThe way Star Trek Adventures did it is exactly what I think fits perfectly for Stargate. Each expansion book has a very specific topic it fleshes out, so players know exactly what they need in addition to the core book. The game as a whole, specifically flavor text and examples, focus on roughly the "halfway point" in the franchise, right before the Dominion War breaks out in DS9. So this is after DS9 and Voyager expanded upon the "Next Generation era" as established by TNG, but before the bigger changes as a result of the war. In the context of Stargate, that's exactly why I felt that the "context" of the core book should be near the end, or just after, SG-1, or perhaps even around S7 before SGA and SGU. This would keep the universe "simple" for the core rule book. As for expansions you could have: Destiny (about SGU) Atlantis (about SGA) Ancients/Goa'uld/Asgard/Wraith/Ori (perhaps smaller books explaining the bigger species in detail and about how to play them in different eras) Space (talking about spacecraft and space combat) Galaxies (expanding upon minor species and organizations in the various galaxies, like the Lucian Alliance and Genii, could be split between Milky Way and Pegasus books, and a more generic one for the rest, like the Alpha/Beta/Delta/Gamma Quadrant STA books) Something like that.
Playtesting without an established group (or solo)
NickEast replied to NickEast's topic in General DiscussionsNo worries, I still appreciate the input
Playtesting without an established group (or solo)
NickEast replied to NickEast's topic in General DiscussionsThere are no comic/game shops around where I live. And the nearest is quite a ways away, and mostly run D&D or similar games. Nothing as "obscure" or niche, in game terms, as Stargate or Star Trek. And while it's not difficult to find groups online, as I mentioned, that's not really the issue.
Time to re-watch the series again !
NickEast replied to jenbuu's topic in General DiscussionsI really dislike the majority of the DVD menus, especially the older ones. Some of the SGA menus are cool, but it takes so much time to navigate the menus; the Blu-ray version is much better. I have been ripping them, as my DVDs are getting old, but I just convert them to ISOs rather than rip the episodes themselves. I want a backup with max quality and all content (including extras) and not waste time trying to figure out the best settings. But modern PC video players can skip menus anyway, so it's a non-issue.
"Good morning, campers!"
NickEast replied to aaron2310's topic in IntroductionsHello, nice to see you hear too!
