In early 2018, Turbo Air began replacing its models with new ones that are designed to be more efficient and use natural refrigerants. This model has been replaced by the TST-28SD-D2-N. Here are details about that model:
Super Deluxe Sandwich/Salad Unit, one-section, 7 cu. ft., stainless steel top with 8-pan opening, (2) stainless steel drawers with recessed handles, stainless steel interior & exterior, self-cleaning condenser equipped, cold air compartment, insulated pan cover, cutting board side rail, hot gas condensate system, 4" casters, self-contained rear mounted refrigeration system, R290 Hydrocrabon refrigeration, 1/6 HP, 115v/60/1-ph, 2.2 amps, NEMA 5-15P, cETLus, ETL-Sanitation
Cleaning the condenser in your refrigeration system is one of the most important procedures in refrigeration maintenance. Since manually cleaning the condenser on a regular basis is time consuming and costly, the Turbo Air TST-28SD-D2 Super Deluxe Series Sandwich/Salad prep table is equipped with a self-cleaning condenser. A mesh filter prevents dust from reaching into the condenser coil fins while a rotating brush sweeps away dust that has collected on the mesh filter. The brush that rotates also moves up and down to remove excess dust outward and away from the condenser, preventing dust accumulation in the first place. The self-cleaning condenser allows the system to maintain its highest efficiency while preventing a premature system failure.
The Turbo Air TST-28SD-D2 Super Deluxe Series Sandwich/Salad prep table refrigerator is designed with a self-contained, balanced, oversized, CFC-free R-134A refrigeration system that includes an evaporator and condenser for faster cooling and great efficiency. The entire cabinet structure and solid doors are foamed-in-place, high-density, CFC-free polyurethane insulation. Guaranteeing maximum cleanliness and long product life, the cabinet is constructed from stainless steel on the exterior and interior, with galvanized steel on the back and bottom. The insulated pan cover holds the temperature between 33 and 39 degrees Fahrenheit to keep food cold for the best preservation.

BOCA RATONDELRAY BEACH — Televisions, stereos and other valuables were stolen late on Thursday night in two burglaries in dormitories at the College of Boca Raton, police said.
Two televisions, a stereo, a clock-radio, a luggage set, a gold chain and a calculator were stolen from one room, police said. The thief threw eggs around the room and spelled out messages in suntan lotion on the beds.
Total value of the stolen items was $1,790, police said.
A $400 stereo was stolen in the second burglary, police said. The thief knocked over a cup of red paint and left some footprints in the room.
In both burglaries, a key was used for entry, police said.
A chain saw, spare tire and an radio antenna were stolen late Thursday from a truck parked in the 400 block of Northeast 40th Street, police said.
The stolen items were valued at $765, police said.
A radio-cassette system was stolen within the last two months from a car parked in the 2500 block of Northwest Second Avenue, police said.
The car`s owner told police the car was unlocked. The stereo was valued at $375.A $1,200 men`s diamond watch was stolen from Carter`s Jewelers in the 500 block of East Atlantic Avenue.
Police said two men walked into the jewelry store and asked to look at a watch in the jewelry case. While one was pointing to the watch, he apparently took another watch. The watch was discovered missing at about 11:15 a.m., a few minutes after the men left the store.
A burglar pried open the door at a house on the 300 block of Southwest Seventh Street on Wednesday and took several hundred dollars in cash and jewelry from the home.

Running in heat and humidity can put you at risk for dehydration, heat stroke and other heat-related illnesses. Common sense is the key to avoiding problems, so be sure to follow these precautions:
[vc_separator type='transparent' color='#ffffff' thickness=" up='15' down='15']
- Stay Hydrated: The easiest way to avoid heat disorders is to keep your body hydrated. This means drinking fluids before, during and after exercise. The body's fluid needs vary with exertion, climate, humidity, terrain, and other factors. The new fluid recommendations for runners say that they should "obey your thirst" and drink when their mouth is dry and they feel the need to drink. In training, drink before workouts and make sure you have access to fluids if exercising longer than 30 minutes. During longer workouts, some of your fluid intake should include a sports drink (like lucozade) to replace lost salt and other minerals (electrolytes).
- Choose Clothing Carefully: Light-colored, loose-fitting clothing will help your body breathe and cool itself down naturally. Tight clothing restricts that process and dark colors absorb the sun's light and heat. Wear synthetic fabrics (not cotton) because they will wick moisture away from your skin so cooling evaporation can occur.
- Run Early or Late: Try to avoid running between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when the sun's intensity is at its greatest. If you must train during those hours, try to stick to shady roads or trails. Morning (before sunrise or right after) is the coolest time of the day to run since the roads have not heated up during the day.
- Wear Sunscreen: Protect your skin with a waterproof sunscreen that has an SPF of at least 15 and offers broad spectrum protection, which means it protects against both UVA and UVB rays. Stick formulations are good for runners' faces because the sunscreen won't run into your eyes.
- Don't Push It: On a race day (or during any intense workout), take weather conditions into account. Brutal heat and humidity mean you should scale back your performance goals. Don't try to beat the heat. Hot and humid conditions are not the time to try to push your pace. Slow down, take walking breaks, and save
- Make a Splash: Use water to cool yourself during runs. If you are overheating, splashing water on your head and body will cool you down quickly and have a lasting effect as the water evaporates from your skin.
- Be Educated: You should be very familiar with the signs of heat problems so you recognize them in yourself or in a running partner. If you feel faint, dizzy, disoriented, have stopped sweating, or your skin is cool and clammy, slow down or stop running, and get some fluids. If symptoms continue, sit or lie down in the shade and seek help.

We love getting out of town to cook at one of our favorite locations, David Arms Gallery, housed inside a beautiful reclaimed barn. Fresh flowers on rustic tables set the scene for a perfect evening with family and friends. We featured grilled purple asparagus from Delvin Farms, Wedge Oak Farms chicken cooked under a brick with fresh rosemary & garlic, as well as a wide variety of snacks and canapés. As the sun set and the fire lit for s'mores, good times echoed in to the night.

On Monday, Bill brought me a dead dragonfly he found on the ground to draw. One of the unexpected pleasures we have discovered since moving to central Texas has been the swarms of dragonflies that eat up the area mosquitos. And so many colors! Red, blue, green, and even black & white zebra-colored! They are amazing creatures and it's sad to find a dead one.
Tuesday we made an unexpected drive to Nacogdoches to help our son Jeff transfer some things to the person buying it from him. His car tires are not safe for out-of-town driving and the money for the items will help pay to fix that. He's busy with his new job but it takes time to catch up for the period of time when he was unemployed. And soon he will begin grad-school.
Our favorite Mexican restaurant in Nacogdoches is La Carreta -- an old
water tower grain bin (Bill informed me of my error!) perched on the roof makes it easy to find. I planned on adding watercolor to the sketch but this particular brown ink melts a bit too much even after it dries. It is a Monteverde cartridge made to fit Lamy fountain pens. A beautiful brown, but not as useful for water-soluble ink & watercolor sketching as J. Herbin Lie de The brown ink.

Callie Thorne Teases Necessary Roughness Summer Finale, Fixing the FixerChristine Orlando at . Comments
What happens when the fixer needs fixing?
That's the question heading in to tonight's season finale of Necessary Roughness, as star Callie Thorne let us in on some of the struggles Dr. Dani will face as the summer season closes on "All the King's Horses."
Dr Dani may have the answers for her patients, but when it comes to her personal life, things aren't so easy.
"As we head into the season finale... every which way she turns, it feels like a question and she can't answer them," the actress told me in a conference call. "But we finally see her reach out for help."
So it appears that the Hawks' favorite therapist decides to see a therapist.
"Peter MacNicol, who plays her therapist, is genius. I don't want to give anything away but the therapy scenes are really eye opening."
Thorne is willing to give some insight into Dani's inner psyche, though: "Dani is the fixer. Dani makes this big sacrifice [when she breaks up with Matt] because she doesn't want kids."
But Callie explains that Dani ends up in this strange limbo that "can be a little bit paralyzing and leads her to wonder whether or not she's making the wrong decision with Matt and possibly finding herself losing the love of her life."
Yet there's still Nico, her "polar opposite." Could there be a romantic future there?
"Suddenly there's this open possibility with Nico, which then throws her into mass confusion. At the end of the day, she's still struggling," previews the actress.
Does that mean Necessary Roughness ends the summer on a cliffhanger?
"That's what we do on our show. We don't tie everything up in a bow."
Who will you be rooting for in tonight's finale? Should Dani choose Team Matt or Team Nico?

1. Thuja Magus Imperium
2. Permanent Changes In Consciousness
3. Subterranean Initiation
4. Rainbow Illness
6. Woodland Cathedral
7. Astral Blood
8. Prayer Of Transformation
The wolves are back again with their atmospheric style of blackened tremolo riffing. The guitars sound stellar and create some of the duo's best riffs ever, especially on "Thuja Magus Imperium" and "Astral Blood". The drumming is also fast and adept, while the vocals are excellently executed by Nathan Weaver. However, what makes Celestial Lineage different is the incorporation of female vocals (which were used on Two Hunters, but left out of Black Cascade) and droning ambient soundscapes i.e. "Woodland Cathedral". These particular elements make the songwriting on Celestial Lineage much more interesting.
Atmosphere-wise I don't think it can get better than this. The Weaver brothers "weave" textures so rich and deep with emotions, aided by the ambient passages and the female vocals, which also evoke a mystical, esoteric vibe. While listening to Celestial Lineage, it's quite not uncommon to feel your spine tingling upon some amazing guitar riffs. If you don't get what I mean, listen to the riff in "Thuja Magus Imperium" at 9:51 and the one in "Astral Blood" at 8:14. And there's much more to it than those two riffs.
The album is very well-produced (WITTR's cleanest to date), and as you might have obviously noticed, the tracks on Celestial Lineage are more numerous but shorter than the ones on their previous albums. "Thuja Magus Imperium" and "Astral Blood" are pure gold, while "Subterranean Initiation" and "Prayer Of Transformation" are also great black metal songs. "Woodland Cathedral" stands out as a droning interlude with female vocals that create an enticing atmosphere. The two remaining tracks, "Permanent Changes In Consciousness" and "Rainbow Illness" are simply two ambient instrumental interludes to slow down the flow with the album (Which is great by the way).
So, do I recommend this? Of course I do. This is probably one of my top five metal albums of 2011, and it's definitely one of the best black metal albums of the year. Celestial Lineage is just another magnificent offering from the Weaver brothers; it is their catchiest and in my personal opinion their best until now. So what are you waiting for? Go listen to Celestial Lineage and get engulfed by that fantastic atmosphere.
Rating: 9.0/10

Review by:
Kristi (Books N Beans)
on May 09, 2012 :
Though Vultures in the Playground by A. Sparrow is a work of fiction, the subject of the continuing violence and upheaval for Africans is very real and in the present day. I applaud Sparrow for addressing this topic and for bringing into question the corruption that allows this turmoil to continue. It's corruption that isn't just done by African governments or people, but corruption that is manipulated and used by other governments who wish to use the ensuing chaos to further their own ends.
I know it may seem as if this would be impossible. We just don't wish to believe that "evolved" societies would do such a thing, but I assure it happens. You don't have to take my word for it though. If you're interested, I welcome you to take a few minutes and research it for yourselves. I think you'll be astounded at what horrible things are still being done in this day and age.
Again, I nod to Sparrow for broaching a topic that many would prefer to ignore. I only wish I could I say I loved the story as much as the topic of the story. Unfortunately, Sparrow's main character was too weak of a personality to hold up. This is sad because I have always wanted a story where an average person could be the hero. Why do they all have to be some super soldier, or a former spy, or a special forces person, or any number of person who isn't what we all are?
I now believe that the problem may lie in the fact that when we try to place an average person in the story we try to make them so average that they actually end up being below average.
Archie is a traveler of the world, he visits many foreign locale working with a charity trying to provide humanitarian aid to the people. He's described as a flabby, middle-aged man with an ex-wife, who could no longer handle his traveling for work, and no one else whom he's close too. Archie's failure to learn from his past travels, his inability to see the present truth for what it is, and his lack of willingness to understand the path he must now follow is too much to expect the reader to accept.
Overall, Vultures in the Playground deserves high praise for a difficult topic tackled and brought out to be viewed by all, but fails to match that standard with the main character who is showing us this beautiful and dangerous world.

I've been trawling the internet and most bedrooms seem to try and split the room in half so each child has a dedicated section, but I'm not really a fan of that; my two are still too young to need privacy, and I don't really like how a room looks when you start splitting it in half - there's also not enough space to start introducing dividers and curtains and whatnot. I'm looking at mixing in all the vintage and retro things I've already collected with some gender-neutral bedding, lighting and prints; I want it to be colourful, cheerful and a place they enjoy spending time together - particularly at bedtime, when the sofa is calling my name!

Energy Saving Tips
· Turn off non-essential lights and appliances. Example make sure all bedroom lights, fans, air conditioners etc. are turned off when the whole family is in the living room watching Television.
· Avoid running large appliances such as washers, dryers and electric ovens during peakdemand hours from 6:00 am to 9:00am and 6:00pm to 9:00pm.
· Fridge doors should not be left open for longer than necessary. [cold air escape]. Hot or warm food should not be put straight into the fridge (need to cool down first).
· Fridge should be regularly defrosted to keep running efficiently. If it tends to frost up quickly, the door seal should be checked and if the fridge is next to a gap cooker or a boiler, a good should be left between them.
· Buy Energy efficient appliances, products and light such as the compact fluorescent lamps instead of incandescent bulbs.
· Turn off all unnecessary lights, especially in unused offices and conference rooms and turn down remaining lighting levels where possible. Take advantage of natural lights where possible.
· Use skylight for roofing of production floors and ware houses.
· Set computers, monitors, printers copiers and other business equipment to their energy saving mode and turn them off during long idle periods such as lunch breaks and at the close of the day. Minimize energy usage during peak demand hours from 6:00am to 9:00am and from 6:00pm to 9:00pm.
· Ensure that offices having air conditioners have properly sealed windows and all doors are closed when the air conditioner is in use.
· Make sure your air conditioner is switched off at the end of the day. Again switch it off when you know you will be leaving the office for a longer period. Ensure regular maintenance of air conditioners.
· You could install simple motion detectors with your office lighting and air conditioner systems to turn off lights when not needed and cut down your energy consumption

The exact size of the advertising portion of the two-year anti-smoking campaigns in Florida-and extended to Mississippi-was uncertain at press time. But the tobacco marketers agreed to fund the "pilot" two-year effort in Florida with $200 million, a figure that includes enforcement and education as well as ads.
Spokesmen for Florida Gov. Lawton Chiles and the new state Department of Health said major amounts of the $100 million annual expenditure will go toward ads but offered few details.
Florida's plan for the pilot program must be approved by Palm Beach County Judge Harold Cohen.
The only conditions the industry sought and received in the deal was that the money be used to reduce underage smoking and that tobacco not be portrayed as "bad guys" in ads, a la the "Mr. Butts" Massachusetts anti-smoking ads or the "conspirators" portrayal in ads in California.
Advertising "shall not be directed against the tobacco companies or any particular company or companies or any particular brand of tobacco products," said the agreement that settled Florida's lawsuit.
The health department, formed in January, currently has no ad agency; plans to hire one have not been formulated.
The Florida deal applies to Mississippi because the latter state's settlement stipulated that any new benefits won by other states would be extended to Mississippi.
Based upon population, Mississippi will receive $50 million during the two years, said a spokesman for Attorney General Michael Moore, adding that most of that likely would go to advertising.
While Florida and Mississippi residents will see more anti-smoking ads, outdoor boards for cigarettes will disappear quickly. Tobacco companies are to furnish a list of boards to state officials within 30 days, take down some within the next month and have all boards down four months later.
Also to be removed are all transit advertising and ads at sports arenas.
While significant, the ad restrictions are less severe than those that would take effect nationally if the national agreement negotiated by a group of state attorneys general-and due to be considered by Congress in hearings this week-takes effect.
Under the Florida agreement, signage outside stores and sponsorship notices at entertainment or sporting events would be allowed. Also, the deal does not carry the restrictions on magazine advertising, giveaways, promotions or other forms of marketing contained in the national settlement.
Spokesmen for the outdoor ad industry said less than 9% of outdoor ad dollars in the two states come from tobacco marketers.
"As long as it is voluntary, individual companies have every right to decide where they place their advertising," said Kippy Burns, VP-communications at Outdoor Advertising Association of America.
Congressional observers, however, wondered whether the new state pact would heighten congressional determination to act or actually work to lessen the pressure.
But Mark Buse, policy director of the Senate Commerce Committee, said it would not work against the national agreement.
"Congressmen view it as their job to decide this," said Mr. Buse. "They will be loathe to cede this to a bunch of attorneys general."

Posted on 07/18/2012 6:53:07 AM PDT by SeekAndFind
California is our Greece, the most fiscally irresponsible of U.S. states and now it has another fiscal fiasco on its hands. A recent report about the state-sponsored bullet train to nowhere calculates $68 billion as the total sum to be spent on a high-speed rail line to run between Los Angeles and San Francisco. Passengers are supposed to be able to travel up to 220 miles per hour in two-and-a-half hours.
A plane flight is less than an hour not counting drives to and from the airports. Voters approved the rail project by a 53-47% margin, in a statewide referendum, back in 2008. Based on that vote, California issued $10 billion in bonds and then got $3.5 billion from the rest of us taxpayers (stimulus money from the Obama administration).
But why should this even be a public project? Why should it be subject to public vote? What of the 47% who didnt support it? Why should they have anything to do with it? If the project were commercially viable and the greens were kept at bay it would be built by the private sector. Only politically is it viable which means it entails lots of payoffs, bribes and graft for the politically-connected in the state. Construction is supposed to begin later this year, in the Central Valley, near Merced, with 300 miles of track to be laid from there, over 10 years, to the northern outskirts of Los Angeles.
Thereafter a northern link is to be built to San Francisco, but it wouldnt be finished until 2028. Why would it take a whole decade to lay that initial track? I count 300 miles over 3650 days, which is less than 500 feet per day.
(Excerpt) Read more at forbes.com ...
-—wonder how that construction schedule compares to the one that culminated in the driving of the "golden spike"??
This is such a farse. The state has been run and destroyed by the tax and spend DemoRats and their "envirowhacko" supporters. Over taxation and regulation are running revenue and job generating companies out of the state to business-friendly states.
Once the model state for America, when it was run by conservatives over thirty years ago. Now, a liberal-destroyed dung heap of debt, illegals, and taxation madness driven by an electorate that keeps voting them back in.
Rest in peace Taxifornia.

—wonder how that construction schedule compares to the one that culminated in the driving of the "golden spike"?
Well considering that Chinese labor just might be used, might even be on schedule, barring discovery of some mythic skank lizard.
China to bid on California bridge work?
Do it just west of Fresno - JimRob will be the proud owner of beachfront property :-)
Not quite the same... Greece hasn't shot its wad on spectacular public works, but on more mundane bumming.
Got to be fair to California, this thing did go through a referendum. I'm not sure what the 53% slim majority thought would be gained by this, but they voted for it and they got it. Unless they want to anti-referendum it now.
My folks and i sailed into SF in 1961 after living in Asia for a decade.
The city looked damned good back then.
"...The Greens also fight efficient big-ticket power-plants..."
We should have had ample nuke electric power by now, but the DemoRats need the money and votes of the "greens" to stay in power so they do any damage to the state and its people necessary to make that happen. The state is toast due to the Hispanic vote which grows faster than anyone imagines combined with the welfare class which the state supports without question.
Yes, the CARB (Calif Air Resources Board) is a cancer that feeds off the liberites and excessive regulation it keeps putting out. Thank them for 2-cycle engines disappearing in record numbers along with ridiculous EXPENSIVE botique gasolines (heavily taxed) at the pumps. It is total liberal insanity all for DemoRat empowerment.
Nice skateboard by the way :-)

It was getting difficult for everyone to stay in the task, and so was for Sambhavna. After standing for more than twelve hours, Sambhavna's legs had started giving up as she fought hard to stand for long along with others. But during the wee hours, she gave up the hope after her legs started swelling and she called it quits.
So, now it were just Dimpy, Pritam and Gautam remaining by morning. The trio looked fatigued and absolutely drained in every way. One thing that kept them going was their determination. But the others had to somehow while away their time, so in sometime Mahek and Ali brought up their favourite topic, Gautam's working in the kitchen as per his convenience which could affect Rahul's health (He is a diabetic and needed food at the right time). Listening to all this, Gautam lost his cool and started getting irritable and agitated. Realizing this, Mahek and Ali moved away from his sight because they knew he was standing for quite long and was psychologically affected by being in the same position.
Ali then started off with his comical act when someone complimented him about looking good. He said not to compliment him again because whenever anybody in the house compliments him, the same day he falls sick with either a weak stomach, nausea or fever. So, the compliment was actually manhuss in Ali's style.
But on a serious note, the way the task was getting intense, it was getting even more difficult to guess who had higher chances of winning.
I am sure this will take you back to the memories of 'Hijack' task

|Don't forget, Sigurd. I'm always here for you. Especially in times like these.
— Quan, to Sigurd
Quan (Japanese: キュアン Cuan) was the prince of Leonster, the son of King Calf, the father of Altena and Leif, a full-blooded descendant of the Crusader Noba, and the inheritor of Gáe Bolg. In his youth, he was educated at the Belhalla military academy, where he met Sigurd of Chalphy and Eldigan of Nordion; the three quickly became close friends and pledged each other's support in times of need, and Quan eventually married Sigurd's sister Ethlyn. When he received word of the Verdane assault on Grannvale in Grann 757, he departed Leonster with Ethlyn and the young knight Finn to assist Sigurd, and travelled with him through Agustria to Silesse.
While Sigurd was in exile in Silesse, Quan departed Sigurd's group to return to Leonster and raise reinforcements to assist him, and on his way through the Yied Desert to do so, he and Ethlyn were besieged by the Thracian dragon knights and were killed, in what became known as the Yied Massacre. Though he was never formally crowned during his life and in fact was killed before his father, years after his death he was nonetheless referred to as "King Quan" as an honorary title.

Fire Emblem: Genealogy of the Holy War
Shortly after Sigurd and the remaining Chalphy knights departed to combat the Verdane invasion force and reclaim Jungby, Quan, Ethlyn and Finn arrived to assist him. Though both Sigurd and Ethlyn apologised for what they saw as dragging him into the situation, Quan insisted that he would not have it any other way.[1] During Sigurd's sortie into Verdane to find the missing Adean, Quan asked Ayra about the Grannvale-Isaach war, concerned about the nature of it given his father's high regard for Isaach's King Mananan. He learned of the role of Rivough's leader in sparking the role, the assassination of Mananan, and Ayra's role in being entrusted with Shanan.
Quan remained with Sigurd's army throughout the conflict with Agustria. One year into the Grannvale occupation of the country, when King Chagall started stirring trouble, Ethlyn revealed to him that his father had entrusted her with Gáe Bolg, just in case; she handed it over to him, to better facilitate ending the conflict. The two and Finn initially accompanied Sigurd to Silesse when he fled there from Langobalt's army, but departed shortly thereafter to return to Leonster to raise assistance for Sigurd. During their time back in Leonster, their youngest child Leif was born.
As Sigurd's army made its way from Silesse back to Grannvale, Quan and Ethlyn were also travelling there, now accompanied by Leonster's Lance Ritter squadron, with the intent of assisting Sigurd in opposing Langobalt and Reptor; the then-three-year-old Altena was with them, while Leif remained behind in Leonster under the care of Finn. However, as they crossed the Yied Desert, Thracia's King Travant and a squad of Thracian dragon knights appeared in pursuit of them, hired by Veld of the Loptyrians.[2] Taken by surprise, Quan attempted to fight back as his knights were slaughtered, but even with Gáe Bolg he was overpowered and killed, as was Ethlyn. From their corpses, Travant took Altena and Gáe Bolg, raised Altena as his own daughter, and entrusted her with Gáe Bolg in his service.
Starting stats and growth rates
If either Quan or Ethlyn are killed in battle while playable, both will leave the player's party. Both will leave the party, along with Finn, before the beginning of Chapter 4.
In Chapter 5, after Lubeck Castle has been seized, Quan, Ethlyn and a squad of Leonster knights will appear as partner units in the map's south-east corner. His stats here are the same as they were when he left in Chapter 4, except for his items - he instead possesses only Gáe Bolg, even if the player did not obtain it while he was playable in Chapter 3.
Fire Emblem Awakening
Quan is playable as a SpotPass character, released in the Genealogy of the Holy War first-generation character set. He is also present as an enemy in the first and third installments of the Lost Bloodlines DLC series, and as a NPC in Lost Bloodlines 2.

Love growths and events
When recruited, Quan already has full love growth with Ethlyn; should Ethlyn be killed, Quan will leave the party too and as such cannot be re-paired with another character.
- In the Prologue, Quan can talk to Sigurd at any point after he has joined, yielding no reward.
- In Chapter 1, Quan can talk to Finn at any time, granting Finn +1 Strength, Skill and Defense.
- In Chapter 1, Quan can talk to Ayra after she has been recruited, yielding no gameplay reward but giving some insight into the Isaach conflict.
- In Chapter 2, Quan can talk to Finn after Heirhein Castle has been seized, giving Finn a Brave Lance.
- In Chapter 3, Ethlyn can talk to Quan after Silvail Castle has been seized, giving him Gáe Bolg.

Les Portes du néant, à la frontière turque, s'ouvrent une première fois sur la route qui mène à la région d'Idlib, dans le nord-ouest de la Syrie. Samar Yazbek les franchit en août 2012, en se faufilant dans un trou creusé sous des barbelés. Une voiture l'attend, qui traverse la nuit sur un fond sonore de bombardements, avec à l'intérieur Maysara et Mohammed, deux frères d'armes rebelles : ses anges gardiens.

A comforting feeling of time and space. Where does this feeling come from in Lebanese writer Jabbour Douaihy's American neighborhood? When one knows that this story takes place in today's Lebanon, a short distance away from the Syrian border, in the city of Tripoli that is particularly exposed to the horrors of the killings in the neighboring hills, and shaken by incessant communal clashes, that peaceful feeling is almost shocking.

A historical novel, then? A parody rather. The stories told here are full of errors, as childhood memories and village gossip usually are. This is one of the strokes of genius of this kaleidoscopic book, an almost ethnological dive of a writer among her people: everything is truthful, nothing is quite true.

Tens of thousands of Armenians gathered in the capital of Yerevan under cloudy skies Saturday to remember mass killings of Armenians by Ottoman Turks.
Rain fell as they placed flowers at a hilltop memorial on the 95th anniversary of the World War I-era deaths.
Armenian President Serzh Sarkisyan thanked countries all over the world, including Turkey, that "understand the importance of preventing crimes against humanity."
Armenia says the killings of an estimated 1.5 million Armenians between 1915 and 1923 constituted genocide, a charge rejected by Turkey. Turkey says the death toll is greatly exaggerated, and that the Armenians died in a civil war that accompanied the collapse of the Ottoman Empire.
U.S. President Barack Obama released a statement Saturday calling the killings "one of the worst atrocities of the 20th century" but avoided using the term, genocide.
Mr. Obama said he is encouraged by dialogue between Turks and Armenians, and within Turkey over what he called "this painful history."
Turkey briefly recalled its ambassador to the United States after a U.S. congressional panel passed a resolution labeling the World War I-era killings a genocide.
Turkish officials have also been pressuring U.S. officials to make sure the measure is not ratified by the full House of Representatives.
The killings, which Armenians call the Meds Yeghern, were also commemorated in several major cities around the world, including Moscow, Beirut and Jerusalem.
The day was also marked by human rights activists in the Turkish city of Istanbul. They gathered outside a railway station holding pictures of Armenians killed during World War One. They later threw flowers into the water a sign or mourning.
This year's anniversary comes as efforts to normalize relations between Armenia and Turkey have broken down.
Despite the renewed tensions, Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan has said his government is committed to normalizing ties with Armenia.
Some information for this report was provided by AFP, AP and Reuters.

They are.
On Wednesday, three Canadian soldiers died on the road near Masum Gar, Afghanistan.
Written by Stephanie Levitz, Canadian Press @ Canada.com
"The blast killed all three soldiers in the vehicle while they were carrying out a resupply operation near a forward-operating base at Sperwan Ghar, the military said."
And later in the same story...
"The latest deaths came on the day of the military funeral for 25-year-old Trooper Darryl Caswell in Bowmanville, Ontario. He was also killed by a roadside bomb on June 11, when the Canadian military in Afghanistan came across a large number of improvised explosive devices."
The national media is presently reticent to offer an over-view, from scant reports, about what's going on in this forgotten war. I am not as reticent as they, but I understand their point. Writing war is full of land mines; what you think is going on, is probably wrong. If your facts are straight, the story may not be temporal.
Luckily, I am not beholden to anyone at this blog, only the attentions of you readers. So, here are a collection of my 'temporal slices' from this forgotten war.
The new British ambassador to Afghanistan, in his first statement in his present capacity expressed either the level of his ignorance, or the height of his arrogance...
(quoted from an article in The Independent, June 20, 2007, by James Tapsfield, my emphasis)
Ambassador, Sir Sherard Cowper-Coles:
"The great(?!) thing about the Taliban is that they haven't been reading their Chairman Mao. They don't have popular support."
The Taleban are not disciples of the idea of populism like the communist movement(which champion the majority, peasants or workers), that the ambassador refers to.
Taleban don't care if they have popular support; in 'imperially occupied territories', they create a tension of insecurity, going as far as butchering citizens they deem un-Islamic. On this Podcast from The Guardian Unlimited "..Declan Walsh reports on how locals are resisting this Talibanisation. Also, see an informative audio slide show, historical backgrounder, from the Guardian Unlimited.
The Taleban exude purposefulness and discipline; and they demand popular obedience, not support. They are the products of a sect of fundamentalist Islam's, 'madrassa', schooling. They are the elite of a education system that teaches extreme intolerance and armed insurrection towards an Islamic state. They insist on an extreme standard of public decorum in the areas they dominate. Disobedience is rewarded with brutal public sanction, including death.
The population is suffering under the Tabeban's Islamic law, murder-squads, and a NATO war machine that is unbelievably powerful, destructive, and indiscriminate. The Taleban draw their enemy to fight in populated areas because towns are the fulcrum of government power; and it is to their strategic advantage. Regularly, a village will become a free fire zone, a rule of engagement I've heard interpreted as, 'shoot anything that moves' orders. And they do.
Published in the New York Times Barry Bearak and Taimoor Shah wrote,
KABUL, Afghanistan, June 18, 2007Lost that battle.
Afghan officials said late Monday that more than 50 civilians may have died during fierce fighting over the past three days between NATO forces and the Taliban in the Chora district of the southern province of Uruzgan.
That's Canada's bailiwick. No reports yet as to which NATO force was involved.
Maj. Dave Quick, commanding officer of India Company, Royal Canadian Regiment, told Stephanie Levitz,
"..Wednesday's (June 20, 2007) battle was longest firefight his company has been in even though it was their 12th combat mission in the last month."
On Thursday Canadian troops were involved in another action in Helmand province.
By Peter Walker of The Guardian
"The air strike - which happened late yesterday (June 21, 2007) - was launched in response to an attack on police posts near the town of Gereshk by militants. It killed 25 civilians including nine women, three babies and the mullah of a local mosque."
Lost that battle.
Later in the same story Peter Walker writes.
According to the Associated Press news agency, the latest deaths - if confirmed - will bring the number of civilians killed in NATO or US-led military operations this year to 177. Among these were seven children who died in a US air strike on Sunday.
A total of 169 civilians have been killed in militant attacks this year, including a recent series of suicide bombings.
So between us and them are 346 civilian dead.
"The latest NATO deaths bring to 606 the number of foreign troops killed in action in Afghanistan since the overthrow of the Taleban in 2001."(from © Reuters 2007)
Sixty Canadians serving in the Canadian Forces and one diplomat have died in Afghanistan so far.
I hope this over-view gives Canadians an idea of the intensity of action our soldiers are facing right now.
