Torreya californica
|Scope: Global
Language: English
|Scientific Name:
|Torreya californica Torr.
Common Name(s):
|Taxonomic Source(s):
|Farjon, A. 2010. A Handbook of the World's Conifers. Koninklijke Brill, Leiden.
|Red List Category & Criteria:
|Vulnerable A1cd ver 3.1
|Year Published:
|Date Assessed:
|Farjon, A.
|Thomas, P. & Stritch, L.
Past logging has virtually eliminated Torreya californica from parts of its historic range and also removed most of the large trees across almost all of its range. Regrowth is reported to be very slow. On this basis a past decline of more than 50% of mature trees in the population has been inferred over the past 150 years (three generations), leading to an assessment of Vulnerable under the A1 criterion.
|Previously published Red List assessments:
|Range Description:
|California Nutmeg is endemic to California where it is mainly found in the Coast Ranges and the Cascade-Sierra Nevada foothills. In coastal areas it is distributed from southwest Trinity County south to Monterey County. In the Cascade-Sierra Nevada foothills, it is distributed from Shasta County south to Tulare County.
|Countries occurrence:
Native:United States (California)

|Populations are usually small and localized. The population is substantially reduced from what it was before but is now slowly recovering.
|Current Population Trend:
|Additional data:
|Habitat and Ecology:
|Torreya californica is a scattered understorey tree usually growing in moist and shady places in hilly to mountainous terrain dominated by tall conifers, especially Sequoia sempervirens, Picea sitchensis and Pseudotsuga menziesii. In the western valleys of the Sierra Nevada it is associated with angiosperms, mainly Acer spp., Cornus nuttallii, Platanus occidentalis, and Alnus rubra and here it strictly adheres to stream banks in steep canyons at altitudes around 1,200 m a.s.l. Its altitudinal range is from near sea level (but usually above 200 m) in the Coast Ranges to 2,500 m a.s.l. in the Sierra Nevada. On serpentine rock it becomes a stunted tree or shrub and occurs on north-facing slopes in coastal chaparral. It is capable of resprouting following disturbance such as fire although regrowth is slow.
|Continuing decline in area, extent and/or quality of habitat:
|Generation Length (years):
|Use and Trade:
|In the past, Torreya californica was used for cabinet making, fencing and bridges, as it is rot resistant. Due to its current rarity it is no longer used. California Indians used it for their bows, seeds were roasted for food and some tribes (e.g. the Pomo) used the roots for basket weaving. T. californica is the most commonly cultivated species of its genus and can grow into an impressive, wide crowned tree with striking foliage and large, pendulous, plum-like green or glaucous seeds. It is almost exclusively used as an ornamental in large gardens or planted in arboreta. The name 'nutmeg' only refers to a superficial similarity with true nutmeg fruits (from Myristica fragrans, an angiosperm tree species).
|Major Threat(s):
|Logging in the late 19th and up to the mid 20th centuries virtually eliminated California Nutmeg from the Vaca Mountains of Napa and Solano counties, and considerably reduced populations in the Santa Cruz Mountains and lower Russian River area of Sonoma County (Howard 1992). Logging also eliminated many of the larger trees in the remainder of its range and resulted in a decline of mature trees in the total population, which is only now slowly being restored. As this species is dependent on forest cover, deforestation in parts of California has further contributed to a decline. On this basis it is reasonable to infer an historic decline in the number of mature trees of at least 50%. This decline has now ceased or virtually ceased.
|Conservation Actions:
|This species is known from several protected areas within its range.

Slicebox.net Review: A Server Nightmare
About six months ago, I signed up for a dedicated server with slicebox.net. The servers are hosted at he.net which has a good reputation. And the price at that time was very attractive, $99/month for their 2-processor 64-bit server with centOS. They set up the machine quickly. But from there it just went downhill.
Over the next three months, the server and slicebox's rdns server was subjected to multiple downtimes. I went through setting up a dozen sites and configuring/tuning postfix, contacting mail providers like comcast, aol, yahoo, etc, configuring feedback loops for the email, to resolve the bad IP history and get email properly delivered.
Then slicebox.net (which has the paypal address support [at] infopathsolutions [dot] com) raised the fee to $129 per month and began billing me this new amount. If I had not already spent so much time configuring and addressing the email deliverability of the IP, I would have switched immediately to another provider. I raised the issue through their support ticket system that it was not proper to raise the fee for current customers (bait and switch). Their response: as you know this is monthly plans, so are subjected to changes, the term that you pay, your price is locked. say you pay for a year your price is locked for entire year
In order to keep the same price, I was forced to switch to their $299 3-month payments, which would still be about the same price to me monthly.
Fast forward one month to last Thursday at 7am PST, I was sent the following email from slicebox:
hello everybody. Continue reading if your server has IP in 65.49.6.x range.
1. We are in the process of shifting our servers within He.net datacenters to streamline our network. Please note that only servers with 65.49.6.x range is under this move.
2. We are expecting this move to be completed within 4 to 6hrs during next 48hrs based on the availability of tech at the Data center.
Once completed we shall open a support ticket with new KVM login Information as well as replacement IP range. At this point we could not restore the actual range and sorry about that. When you have received the support email with new IP info , you will need to reconfigure the IP on your server with new allocation and your server will be online through KVM
You can open a support ticket in case of clarifications.
Because I am in Hawaii, I didn't read the mail until several hours later. I was shocked that a hosting provider would be so abusive to its clients. They planned to force me to change IPs, force me to have 4-6 hours of downtime, and to do it on short notice without even announcing the exact time of the outage so I could inform the users of my sites and take action to at least change the IP temporarily and put up a "maintenance" page. I finally realized the reason that slicebox.net had no phone number listed - they had no concern for their customers in the first place. I sent back a polite explanation and requested that they at the very least give more notice of the outage, or preferably just cancel the move entirely. I sent that at 12:09 PST.
At 15:41 PST I still had not received a response, and I wrote again asking if they were seriously planning the move.
At 17:04 PST I received the following response, accoding to their system from Rama Ketineni, the same person who always does their support:
The process is going to start in the next 1hr.
And five minutes after that, my server was unplugged.
I called another server company, and they had another server ready for me four hours later. I backed up some of my sites from offsite backup and then transfered over the rest within the following 24 hours. The server at slicebox.net was online again about 8 hours after it was unplugged, but all I needed was a few of the latest database snaps and a few files, because I already had backups elsewhere.
And when after that I requested a refund for the remainder of the 3-month service, not suprisingly, "Rama Ketineni" wrote back, "we do not issue any refunds" -- showing just how much faith a customer can put in their "99.9% Uptime Guarantee" Just think, if they had only refunded the $200 they legitimately owed me for the rest of the 3-month block, at least it would say here in this post that they had done so. Or if they at least apologized for the inconvenience and dozens of hours of lost time they caused, it would say that here. But it doesn't say any of those things, because, sadly, they did none of them.
Never again will I get any services with a fly-by-night internet company. I hope I learned my lesson.

Protesters in Sussex voice their disagreement with the activities of Cuadrilla in a bid to stop an experimental oil drill.
The campaigners' motivation is twofold – first, they want to stop the company, one of Britain's fracking pioneers, from further oil exploration in a village of Balcombe, near Lewes, where Cuadrilla plans to start work in the upcoming days.
Second, they want to express their disagreement with the government's support of fracking in the UK, despite the Balcombe site not being expected to involve any hydraulic fracturing.
In a protest, scheduled to take one day and one night, about 50 campaigners have blocked an entrance to the site and stopped an incoming lorry by dragging stumps and branches in front of the entrance.
"Drilling in the Home Counties brings the threat of fracking geographically and politically closer to Westminster," said Brenda Pollack, Friends of the Earth South East regional campaigner.
"Government plans to give drilling firms tax breaks and a virtual planning carte blanche highlights its determination to push ahead. Ministers must now be prepared for real resistance from their own heartlands," she said, maintaining shale gas and oil are not the right solution to energy challenges as they threaten local communities and pollute atmosphere.
Cuadrilla, who obtained permission to undertake the exploration work from the West Sussex County Council in 2010, will start assembling the drill rig in Balcome this week.
The company maintained the current exploration is only temporary and if any further activity is to be considered, Cuadrilla would have to apply for new permissions and licenses.
"Although this summer's work will be unobtrusive, we're fully aware that local people will have many questions about our plans and we'll do our best to answer all of them," said Cuadrilla's chief executive Francis Egan.
"During the coming months, we will discuss our plans with residents and they will be able to visit the site to see for themselves what our work involves."
The company has further reassured it has been granted a mining waste permit from the Environment Agency and that all activities will be carried out in accordance with the permit's requirements.
One of the protesters, Ezra Lynch, who describes himself as a professional clown, has spread himself across the entrance to the site as he warned of the possible ecological harm fracking could cause.
"The outpourings from fracking would harm the ecology in the River Ouse. We have got birds and other animals which could be harmed because their food sources could be wiped out," said the 31-year old activist.

'Teen Mom 2' Season 4 Premiere: Leah Messer Suffers A Miscarriage
On the explosive season four premiere of 'Teen Mom 2,' Leah discovers she suffered a miscarriage with the baby she was carrying with her fiance Jeremy! Plus, Chelsea has unprotected sex with Adam, Kailyn files another court order against Jo and Jenelle finds out Kieffer is out of jail. Read on for the full recap.
Leah Messer faces devastating heartbreak during the season four premiere of Teen Mom 2 on Feb. 18 when she is rushed to the hospital with severe cramps, and discovers she had a miscarriage with the baby she had been carrying with her fiance Jeremy Calvert.
Leah Messer Finds Out She's Had A Miscarriage
Since Jeremy works out of town for several days at a time as a pipeline engineer, Leah has to suffer the tragic news by herself and her twin daughters Ali and Aleeah Simms. "I just don't understand why," she cries about the news. But when talking it over with her friend Kayla, Leah begins to realize that maybe she's not ready to be a mom again. She's going to have her IUD put back in and going to wait to have kids.
Her fiance Jeremy is clearly devastated at the news — but most importantly, he wants to make sure Leah is OK. Leah says they need to slow down their relationship and not be on such the fast track that they have been. That means waiting to even plan their wedding.
Little does Jeremy know, Leah's reasoning is that she's still holding on to feelings with her ex-boyfriend and baby daddy Corey Simms. When she meets him to drop off the girls, she breaks the news of the miscarriage to him — but also reveals she's still in love with him.
"I'm so tired to the back-and-forth stuff," she yells at Corey. But when Corey points out that she's already moved on and engaged, she says that's not important and she would give it all up for Corey. He is still confused, so Leah drives home in tears. Back to her fiance, most likely.
Chelsea Houska Has Unprotected Sex With Adam Lind
Chelsea Houska has been broken up with baby daddy Adam Lind for a while and is focusing on going to beauty school, but one night when he was dropping off Aubree, the two hooked up. And Chelsea's Merina IUD fell out before they hooked up, so she's worried she'll get pregnant. Even though Adam used the pull-out method, it's just as reliable as Adam is as a a father.
Adam jokes with his buddies that "there's always that thing with your baby mama," and doesn't want to get back together with Chelsea because of their drama, but will always kind of have feelings for her.
Meanwhile, Chelsea says it's too early to even take a pregnancy test. but she is too nervous to. She loves Aubree, but isn't ready to be a mom to two kids — especially with Adam.
Jenelle Evans Moves On With Gary Head
Jenelle Evans is gearing up for what is perhaps her most shocking season yet — she's sober, she's back in school, she moved into her own place and she has a boyfriend that her mom Barbara Evans loves — Gary Head!
Just when Jenelle seems to be getting her life back on track, she finds out that her ex-boyfriend Kieffer Delp is out of jail and may try to contact her. But it gets weirder — instead of calling Jenelle, he finds out Gary's number and texts him that he wants to get in touch with Jenelle. Kieffer says he isn't trying to start drama — he's just trying to reach his ex-girlfriend through her new boyfriend. Right.
Jenelle insists she's in love with Gary and isn't looking to get back with Kieffer. If he tries to call her, she says she'll change her number right away. Sounds like it's true love with these two! We'll have to see what happens with their relationship.
Kailyn Lowry Takes More Legal Action Against Jo Rivera
Kailyn Lowry reveals that she is at odds with her baby daddy Jo Rivera yet again over his girlfriend Vee Torres — this time, she was set off when she saw Vee at Jo's house. Kailyn doesn't like Vee around baby Isaac, especially since she likes to smoke and drink.
When Kail confronted her ex about it, he brought up that she has her boyfriend Javi around Isaac all the time. But this just set Kailyn off even more and he said he physically attacked him. She allegedly punched him in the face, and she claims he hit her back.
With all of the punches flying, Kailyn decides to file a PFA, which is a Protection From Abuse order. With the legal filings in place, Jo can't seen Isaac until their court hearing in two weeks. Jo is livid after he's served the papers, and Kailyn worries the two will never be able to be civil or friends again.

Watch how to make this recipe.
For the brine: Rinse and pat the chops dry, slit a pocket into each chop about 3 to 4 inches long and as deep as the bone. Combine the remaining ingredients in a re-sealable bag, place in the refrigerator and brine for 1 to 2 hours.
For the stuffing: In a saute pan over medium-high heat, add the oil and butter, and when the butter melts and foams, add the pancetta and cook until crispy. Remove to a paper towel-lined plate, leaving the fat in the pan. Add the mushrooms, sprinkle with salt and pepper and cook over medium-high heat, stirring frequently for 6 minutes. Add the shallots, sage and 1/2 of the pancetta and cook for 3 minutes more. Remove to a plate to cool, spreading out evenly. Once cool, add the fontina cheese. Reserve the extra pancetta for service.
Remove the chops from the brine and pat dry. Stuff with the cooled filling and secure the opening with toothpicks. Reserve any remaining filling for the sauce.
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
For the breading: In a shallow pan or bowl, add the Italian seasoning, pepper, panko and flour. Mix well. Add the eggs to a second shallow bowl and beat.
Dredge the chops through the egg, then lay in the breading and press to adhere. Repeat with all the chops.
In a large saute pan, add the oil and bacon fat and, when shimmering, add the pork chops, cooking until golden brown, about 5 minutes each side. Hold gently with tongs and cook the edges as well. Place on a baking pan fitted with a wire rack and place into the oven. Cook until the meat registers 135 degrees F on a thermometer, 10 to 15 minutes. Remove and lightly tent with foil.
For the sauce: In the same pan that the chops were cooked in, add the shallots and any remaining mushroom filling and cook over medium-high heat for 4 to 5 minutes. Deglaze the pan with the stock and scrape any bits from the bottom. Whisk in the mustard and yogurt until well combined, and then add the lemon juice and salt.
Remove the chops from the baking pan, remove the toothpicks and place on a serving platter. Top with the sauce. Garnish with the parsley and the remaining pancetta and serve immediately.
Sauvignon Blanc makes a nice pairing for this dish.

I should have bought this piece BIGGER so she could appear to drive off of the wall but this works and looks great. Love the color the style and the happy feeling as do my guests. My daughter recently returned from Italy where she did ride on Vespas. A fun memory for her when she visits and aspirational for me on a future trip.
As a professional advertising photographer living in Egypt who has turned to fine art photography, I like to explore a broad range of photographic subject matter and especially enjoy still life work, landscapes and historical architecture. I try to create a strong visual statement in my work in order to take it beyond the documentary and express a personal vision.

Ed Tang, CEO of Avegant, we've got a bit of a jumble of wires here, but I've always up to this. What is this? -This is a-- It's a new media platform that we're introducing next year and one of the core technologies that we developed at Avegant is this revolutionary display technology and it's called the Virtual Retina Display. And what's different about a virtual retinal display versus any other kind of display is it projects light directly into the eye. We're actually mimicking our natural vision, right, because optics is around us. Nothing is emitting light. Nothing is glowing light, right? Everything we see around us is reflective light and that's why things just seemed that much more real, vivid, natural, the most important, comfortable. -So from a hardware standpoint, how is that compared to something like a traditional virtual reality headset, which has been like an LCD in front of your eyes? -Right. So, LCD panels like LCDs and all of that, those are all emissive light. -Uh huh. -That's very challenging to get emissive light to look really, really good and really comfortable for-- for your eye. And by reflecting light in your eye is how we can-- how we can mimic that natural vision. And we have a really, really interesting approach to addressing that issue. -What was that? -We're using-- We're using a brand new micrometer technology here. -I know Google is looking the technology like this when they were developing glass and they ultimately win a different path. -Right. -Because they have some issues. They're trying to get to like focus correctly for the-- -Right. -wide variety of people. How have you been able to address that? -My co-founder is a brilliant, brilliant scientist and so he was able to have some of the best optical design resources. -Now I think there are probably some people who feel a little bit worried about something beaming and even directly into their eyes-- -Sure. Yeah. -without any concern about eye strain or-- something like that. -No, not at all. There were previously people who have tried using lasers and that's inherently there's some dangerous to that. We're not using any lasers. We're using a very, very low power light source and always a simply shining a really dim light on some mirrors. -So a from consumer standpoint, what's the main advantage of this new technology over traditional LCD panel or something like that? -You get a completely different level of realism. It's like looking at a TV of a picture of the outside versus looking through a window-- -That's good. -like that's kind of the level of difference you see in image quality and realism. You can stare it for hours. You can stare at it all day and feels totally comfortable, unlike staring at LCD screen, your eyes will be tired after an hour. -Uh huh. -So, inherently, the resolution of this is WXGA, which is 1280 x 800. -Uh huh. -But what's interesting is because of the way we send light in your eye, the perceived resolution is incredibly high. So when you get a chance to see it you'll notice that you don't see any pixelation, any screen-door effect. No gaps in the screen. The other interesting to point out is not only is the resolution really high, but their frame rate can be extremely high. I mean, this prototype right now, it can run 240 frames a second. -Wow. -And we're able to push that up if we need to. -But would you see this hitting the market maybe something like better to the Oculus Rift with a gaming-style applications or may be more for, you know, multimedia-style 3D imagery applications, or-- -We were focused on the media standpoint lately. -Okay. -There's a lot of interest in Oculus. What they're doing to virtual reality, I think it's fantastic. They've been trying to bring virtual reality to the mass market. -Uh huh. -And then the other end of the spectrum, they have something like Google glass where they're trying to give you the always connected kind of glanceable display. -Right. -We're kind of targeting a different market here. We think that-- that with the level of experience that we can deliver here that there's something really interesting. We're seeing a lot of demand for consumers who wanna consume media games to really put it on. So what I would encourage you to do is to close one eye and adjust the focus so we can actually adjust the spacing between here and here. You're seeing single image? -Yeah. Wow. -Is it comfortable? -Yeah. It is. -So go ahead and hold on to that whenever you're ready. -Okay. I'm ready. -All right, here we go. This is the screen image display. -Uh huh. -The image you're seeing is being projected directly on your retina. You just get an image that is so much vivid and realistic, but most of all it's a very comfortable image. -I spent a fair amount of time wearing the Oculus Rifts and even with the HD version, you can still see some, you know, some minor pixelation and there's always a little bit of eye strain involved too, you know, when you get to adjust it. But this is very, very comfortable. I mean, the device is perhaps not the most comfortable-- -Yes. -When in terms of comfort for my eye, yeah, it is quite comfortable and, yeah, the resolution is quite good and the color is quite good too. I wish everybody at home was able to see. All right. Now, I have a new version or a different version, I guess I should say, a version up here which adds head tracking and slightly different design, but then the big difference is this must get head tracking stuck on the side here. -Right. Right. You know, it's a slightly different prototype based on the same technology. -Uh huh. -We're always continually trying out different sensors and different adjustment mechanisms so this is another element that you can-- you can experience. -All right. Let's try to the sky up. -So, what you're seeing is a very, very low resolution video streaming off the internet. -Uh huh. So now, again, prototype hardware when might we expect to see something a little bit more finalized? -We expect to have the consumer facing prototype early in quarter one next year. -Maybe CES time, January? -Maybe CES, we'll see. -That would be great. All right, thanks for [unk] today. With pleasure, I can't wait to see the final version. Again, it's Tim Stevens checking up the Avegant prototype virtual retinal display.

Hello, livebloggers and readers.
From the batshit insane mind that brought you the completed Kickboxing Academy and Pooh's Adventures of Turbo: A Power Rangers Movie and the unfinished Power Rangers Lightspeed Rescue, A Light in the Forest: The Legend of Holly Boy, and Forever Mine comes...well, to borrow a phrase from Monty Python:
"And now for something completely different..."
Yes, if you're wondering why I said that, I'm actually going to liveblog a fanfic. And...well, glancing upon that, it's basically what happens if Chuck Austen read Percy Jackson and the Olympians and decided to rehash his infamous X-Men plot (you know, the one where Nightcrawler becomes Pope, Catholics believe in the Rapture, and exploding communion wafers). Or Percy Jackson and the Olympians meets Chick Tracts.
I will admit, I have never read (or even saw the movie of) Percy Jackson and the Olympians, having glanced through summaries in This Very Wiki. However, I will also admit to having a liking of Greek Mythology. I've been so fascinated by such stories and how it ties into Greek history (as I'm an admitted history buff). But that would be for another time.
As the chapters are pretty short, I'll do them two chapters at a time. However...this one...this has twenty chapters. All filled with how evil the Greek Gods are (but, you know, not in that way), how women are whores (yes, really), and, like Chucky Austen here, peppering Bible quotes in the passages.
If the women-bashing becomes horrible, I swear to God, I'll become a man.
I shall warn you now that this story deals with hot-topic stuff (religion, obviously), the stuff that Internet Backdrafts are made of. So if you're not the sort who handles such things, you might want to turn away now.
So let's begin with...
The story begins with this little talk between the writer, Believer in Christ, and Jesus.
- Believer in Christ: Hello Jesus!Jesus: Hello my son.Believer in Christ: Am I saved by writing this story.Jesus: Yes my son.Believer in Christ: Good. Now should I go hunt down those Satanists.Jesus: Yes my son.
As we're about to see, though, even Jesus Christ and God would be utterly displeased with what this writer's about to, well, write. Aren't we taught to love one another and, you know, not slander or kill anyone? But I digress.
And we get our obligatory disclaimer: "Disclaimer: I do not own the Bible, God does. I will not feel sorry for using Percy Jackson as it is evil and should not have a disclaimer." Yeah...even if it it's "evil", it should have a disclaimer. The author should be given credit, you do realize that, right?
We get our title after that: "Being Together the Army". I'm not even going to bother snarking on that one. Though I should warn you now, prepare yourselves for an endless barrage of grammatical errors.
The chapter opens with a quote from Proverbs 16:18: "Pride goeth before destruction, and a haughty spirit before a fall". Well, I'd almost say that it sums up the entire story and the author in a nutshell.
We meet Jerry, the Prayer Warrior who hates the evil Percy Jackson and his army of Greek Gods. He says that he'll stop at nothing to destroy the evil Gods, as he's a servant of the Lord—excuse me, "servent". Which means that he's both a server and a client to a network. (Thanks, Google!)
...oh, shit. It is a play on "servant". Crap!
Anyway, because Percy and his Greek Gods have taken over the land (uh...why? And how did they take over the land?), and because his girlfriend's a whore who pleasures everyone just to get some cash (um...that is not an explanation), it gives Jerry a reason to form a team of Christians and defeat them.
Oh, and did you know that the Greek Gods are false and are created by Satan as a lie in order to poison people's minds? Because the story said so. Yeah, um...except for the part where the ancient Greeks worshipped them. And I guess all those myths and the various media that featured them are tainted forever, by your logic, Believer in Christ.
- "Take heed to thyself that thou be not snared by following them, after that they be destroyed from before thee; and that thou enquire not after their gods, saying, How did these nations serve their gods? even so will I do likewise." - Deuteronomy 12:30
By the way? Get used to these passages being used nearly all the damn time. Because it's one of those stories.
Jerry meets Mary, who the writer tells us is named after Jesus' mother. As if we already didn't know. And we get this gem: "I and her are not dating, if you Satanic scum think that there is something Satanic going on. We are dating, but we are not having Sex until we get married."
First off, it's "We" or "she and I". Preferrably the former. Secondly...um...decide, damn you, on whether you guys are dating or not! Apparentally, to him, dating is both just regular get-togethers like going to the movies or out to dinner and having lots of fun sex times. And if so...my brain hurts, so I'll sum it up: say that you guys aren't having sex, but yes, you are dating. In fact, that first sentence there is clearly unwanted and unneeded. So there you go.
...ugh. (headdesk) And it just goes worse from there, if it hasn't already been there.
Mary asks Jerry if he has been doing the Lord's biddings, and he says "yes". Then they read the book of Genesis and talk about how awesome God is for creating a world they live in. Except...at times, he was kinda a Jerkass God, too. Now, I'm not saying that he's evil, oh, no. He tended to do some Disproportionate Retribution back then, as all gods have done.
But as we soon shall see, this isn't just a nice, pleasant talk about religion, as biased as it is.
- "He that answereth a matter before he heareth it, it is folly and shame unto him." — Proverbs 18:13
Because they also talk about sex gods such as Zeus and...Venus? Um...dude, Venus was in Roman mythology. Not Greek. If you want your anti-other-religion/pro-Catholic propaganda to be truthful and scary, get it right!
...then again, asking him to get it right would be just as scary, if not moreso.
Anyway, apparentally sex gods are part of these false gods, which is against the Ten Commandments. And, yes, they're created by Satan. So with all this talk, what do they decide to do? Yep, you guessed it, create an army against them! Or at least Percy Jackson.
- Jerry: "I wanted an army so that I could defeat this Satanist and his ungodly army. This is America which is a Christian nation, so Satanist, athesit, hindu, muslims, buddhist, and any other non-god fearing people, who worshiped false gods, should not be allowed in this God fearing Nation. We must get rid of them, and make them slaves, if they agree to being a fellow Christian. Once they truly believe in God and his son, Jesus, then would we release them to bring glory to God and his son. If they still did not believe, we would burn then, just as their fellow Satanist did when they refused to worship our lord Jesus Christ."
...there is just so much fail in this paragraph that it would be enough to make the universe explode. First, America is a fucking free nation. Anyone is welcome here. And anyone can be free to worship what they want.
Secondly, even God-fearing folk don't make those of other religions slaves and force-convert them to Christianity. You know what time period did that? From the fucking twelth century to the nineteenth century. From the Spanish Inquisition to the House of Tudor executing those who didn't believe in their chosen religions, and even the Crusades, these people did whatever they could to expel those who didn't believe in their faith, and those were terrible times to be any other religion.
And even if you forced them to be Christian, who's to say that they would resume their old ways? Back in Spain, when Jews and other religions were converted into Christians, thus becoming conversos, even the others believed that the converted ones weren't true Christians, thus thinking that their blood's forever tainted. Ever thought about that? On second thought, don't.
...and the worst part? We're not through with this first chapter yet.
- "Their bows also shall dash the young men to pieces; and they shall have no pity on the fruit of the womb; their eyes shall not spare children." — Isaiah 13:18
So because Jerry wants to bring glory to God, Mary decides that it's best to show him her Christian friends. And we get into this needlessly long bit about the fact that since she's dressed nice (hair pulled back, wearing a long skirt that covers her legs), she must be good. What time period does this guy live in, the fucking fifteenth century?
Oh, and they get some news that one of Percy's friends is in the area. Why? He would force people to believe in false gods and do rituals that allow them to get naked and kill. I'm pretty sure that this falls under "Character Derailment".
Say, how about two passages for the price of one?
- "Also thou shalt not approach unto a woman to uncover her nakedness, as long as she is put apart for her uncleanness." — Leviticus 18:19"But the prophet, which shall presume to speak a word in my name, which I have not commanded him to speak, or that shall speak in the name of other gods, even that prophet shall die." — Deuteronomy 18:20
...so if you got all that, Grover, who apparentally believes in nature gods (i.e. Pan) and has horns on his head (which means, I guess, that even unicorns, trolls, and any ponies who have unicorn horns on their head are fucked), is screwed.
Which, as soon as he opens his mouth and spouts off how Pan and Satan are more awesome than God and Jesus Christ, is proven true. Ladies and gentlemen, our Idiot Plot is officially kicked off! Thanks, Believer in Christ!
- "He that sacrificeth unto any god, save unto the LORD only, he shall be utterly destroyed." —Exodus 22:20
But wait! It gets worse! Jerry, Mary, and Ruth pray for God to strike Grover down...which he does in the form of locusts—excuse me, "locus". And...they eat Grover, leaving only his brain and his internal organs. Our heroes, ladies and gentlemen.
Trust me on this one, it gets even worse as it goes on.
- "And the LORD said unto Moses, Stretch out thine hand over the land of Egypt for the locusts, that they may come up upon the land of Egypt, and eat every herb of the land, even all that the hail hath left." — Exodus 10:12
So after Grover is dead, the, ahem, Prayer Warriors sacrificed a sheep to God, went back to church and prayed, and read how Paul converted many people to God. (Um...so I guess so many people are Gods? By the way, it should be "Christianity", not "God".) Yes, this is what they believe would bring glory to God. By fucking killing everyone in the name of God. What the fuck.
And so Chapter 1 ends with Jerry meeting Mary's friends, thus forming the Order of the Prayer Warriors.
- "Their children also shall be dashed to pieces before their eyes; their houses shall be spoiled, and their wives ravished." — Isaiah 13:16*]]
Okay, okay, the actual chapter ends here, but we do get some Author's Notes. In which Believer in Christ thanks everyone for reading this and hopes that we, the readers, would be saved. His twisted version of Jesus says that he did well, and Believer in Christ ends the chapter finally with him thanking the Lord for giving him
life live and allowing him to write this.
...and guess what? Despite writing a lot in this first installment, we still have Chapter 2 to go through! So let's get to it!
Chapter 2
(Author's Note: You'll need to follow along with the forum topic linked above, as Noah deleted the story.)
So we open with another bit of dialogue with Believer in Christ and Jesus.
- Believer in Christ: The Holy One has return.Christ Himself: Yes you have. You have been blessed.Believer in Christ: And with this blessing I will rid the world demons.Christ Himself: The unholy ones are thee, Theia47, SonnyGoten, ImagingThings and TheBratMan.Believer in Christ: Thee have wage war on our lord Jesus Christ and must be ridden!Chirst Himself: And Alistairlevi13 for serving the dark lord Satan!Believer in Christ: May all these wevil ones burn in hell! Amen.Christ Himself: Bless my son.Believer in Christ: Thank you my lord! Amen and amen.
If you're wondering who the "unholy ones" are, not long after the first chapter was created and uploaded, these people decided to act negatively towards the fic—and rightfully so. The writer pretty much responded in the way you'd expect.
Well, in the first uploading. Because not long after it was listed in the Fanfic section of "So Bad It's Horrible", it was taken down. Coincidence or not? You make the call! However, it's back up again, for all of us to see once more (and so I can finally liveblog/read it in order to tear it a new asshole).
Anyway, enough about the history, and I could go on and on about how Believer in Christ is ridiculous for acting childish (which isn't helping him one iota), but let's continue with the chapter, which is called "Defeating the Whore!"
...and, sadly, this is exactly what it says on the tin. Weeping for humanity yet? You should be.
- "And the daughter of any priest, if she profane herself by playing the whore, she profaneth her father: she shall be burnt with fire." — Leviticus 21:9
Before that, we get this. "A prayer (speak it out load to be save, you unholy ones. If you do not do so, then to the depth of hell you unsaved souls will go forever!): I believe in everyone that is spoken with this holy word, and will follow it so the full command, even ridding the world of those flithly atheist! Amen and amen!"
"Flithly"? "Out load"? But wait, there's more! Here, it talks about the atheists. Nothing about any other religion. Then again, continuity is not its strong point. What are the strong points? An anvilicious approach to how Christianity is awesome and everything else is bad, m'kay, gore, misogyny, and grammatical errors.
Anyway. The Prayer Warriors discuss a plan to defeat the "evil army", but while they do that, once again, the author lets his tracts shine—in parenthesis, no less.
- The Narrator: "Fear all you athiest, jewish, muslim, buddhist and all others that defy this great God that will punish you and send you to hell, where you will burn for in all eternal history, where your body will torn apart, and spread across a endless, lifeless land, where you will be eaten by all foul breast. You will all be punish, all of you. God does not put up with such evil things with this God fearing nation. And that nation is not just America, but all of the world. This is God`s world! And you athiest must convert, pray for all your wrong doings, and believe that our lord Jesus Christ is the one and only true God! Amen."
...wow. Just...wow. Apparentally, this writer is damned determined to simply not just be content to scare everyone in the United fucking States with this shit, but the world. The world, where everyone has their own religions to follow. Aren't those differences what makes us special? Also, "foul breast"? Hm...I think I get the message.
Kids, convert to Christianity now, lest you will be eaten by prostitutes and smooooooookin' hotties that haven't taken a shower in months.
...wait, is that wrong?
Anyway, where does the group start? With a study group. Because...apparentally, study groups share evil things that God hates. Don't you wish your study groups are this unboring?
After that, the study group chants, "All hail Stan!" Stan? Stan? Stan? Then they chant half of the things that were kinda copypasted from the Author Tract, re-worded to fit their Satanic views. Jerry shows up and announces that he has come to kill everyone in the name of God.
However, Clarisse, yet another victim of Character Derailment-itis, declares on the name of Zeus, the God of Whores—wait, what? It's God of Thunder, you idiot. Anyway, she decides to try to kill them. But that's short-lived as Jerry cuts off her (gasp!) hair.
Oh, no! Not her hair! Whatever shall she do? Oh, wait, it seems that it was supposed to be her head. And yes, you guessed it, Jerry and his band of idiots kill everyone. Their bodies are left to rot, and guards are assigned to protect them at all costs. Why? They can't be removed to be buried.
...one and a half chapters into this mess, and I've pretty much realized that this is one of many, many reasons why people don't like Christianity all that much. Which is sad, because there are good Christians out there. They're just lumped with the crazies, like the writer.
- "The memory of the just is blessed: but the name of the wicked shall rot." — Proverbs 10:7
So after that, they head over to the temple of Artemis. Hey, did you know that she and her daughters kill lambs to the god of whores? No? Well, you do now, because the writer said so!
Once again, Jerry tells everyone that they must be punished. And once again, tracts are beaten into our heads. This time, about how God's the only truth that should be accepted in this day and age. At this rate? Comparing him to Chuck Austen...is an insult to Austen, as bad as he was. And as nonsensical as his infamous X-Men story was, at least it didn't have...everyone...attempting...to...convert.
I guess I forgot the part where some members were crucified. Whoops.
Annabeth, Zeus' most faithful whore (or so the story says, really, Zeus didn't even have faithful whores, and they weren't whores, even), declares that they want to corrupt the youth and cause a war. She then adds that they were the cause for everything, including the two World Wars, the Iraqi war, and the Vietnam war.
That's right. Forget what you learned in history. Forget about politics playing a factor. Forget about how millions of lives were lost. The cause of everything in the world belongs to those who don't believe in God. Because...well...they don't.
There's demonization, and there's...this. Demonization for the sake of demonization, logic, reasonings, and history fails be damned. Even five-year-old kids can point out mistakes in some of the history.
Anyway, to try to finish this shit up...ugh...after arguing about which ways are better, Jerry does a Curb-Stomp Battle yet again with him charging after Annabeth, dragging her across a muddy and filthy—I'm sorry, filthful (what?)—road, and slices her head off with an axe. And it gets worse. She suffers a cruel and unusual death (in both senses of the phrase) by letting the worms eat her alive, not letting her brain to survive.
So, if you got that so far, apparentally women don't deserve to be...oh, God, what the fuck seriously what the fuck...
After the whore is dead, the Prayer Warriors celebrated. No, obviously, they don't drink nor have sex. They sang hymns and prayed to God. And so Chapter 2 ends with the writer letting us know that priests don't have sex, so the church isn't in trouble. Because, you know, it's holy and will be obeyed by everyone.
...God...this is disgusting. I-I can't take it, I honestly can't! The main characters are worse than any other Complete Monster of a villain! And this is the first installment, to boot! I've seen horrible things, especially in the first few parts, but I managed to shrug it off. This? I can't! Even the misogynist approach this vile fanfic uses...GAH! If only there was a way for me to continue on—
(magic happens, and I'm turned into a tall, brunette-haired, toned-up man with shorter hair and a deep, resonating, heroic voice)
There is a God. :)
Anyway...now that I got my Heroic Resolve, will I survive the fanfic? Who will the Prayer Warriors kill next? And what is it, exactly, that makes Percy Jackson so evil?
Awaken that soul on the next livebloggening of The Prayer Warriors: The Evil Gods!

Use Of Line Chart Component In Pentaho BI Server
A chart is a graphical representation of data, in which "the data is represented by symbols, such as slices in a pie chart, lines in a line chart or bars in a bar chart.A data chart is a type of graph or diagram, that organizes and represents a set of numerical or qualitative data.
A line chart is a two-dimensional scatterplot of ordered observations where all the observations are connected following their defined order.
To built a Line chart using Pentaho CDE, Pentaho provides built-in component for the same namely 'CCC Line Chart'.
The following blog gives you a brief description as to how one can use this component to built a Line chart to have great analysis of their data graphically using Pentaho CDE.
1. After creating the layout for our Dashboard we move onto the components panel section where we have taken a CCC Line chart component inorder to add a Line chart in our Dashboard.The following screenshot shows the same.
Now define a name ,required properties and datasources which will fetch the data for the Line chart aswell as the htmlobject name which will specify the panel which will hold the Line chart. Set the crosstab mode to false since we dont want a crosstab view here.
NOTE:In your selected query define the order of your columns as
"select series,category,value from table"
which defines the order in which the Line chart shows your data.In here ship_mode column is our series, order_year category and SALES as values.
4. Finally click on the preview button to see your desired Line chart in the selected panel of our dashboard.

New Delhi: It's a blazing hot afternoon just outside the gatehouse of Jodha Bai's palace in Fatehpur Sikri. Tourists throng the forecourt. The air above the red flagstones is so hot that it begins to wrinkle and there in the haze -- near enough to touch -- stands the ghost of Akbar.
This ethereal yet sublime narrative forms the backdrop of Irwin Allan Sealy's latest book "Zelaldinus", in which past and present, nobles and commoners, history and fiction rub shoulders.
"He looks exactly like the line drawing in my school history book; so he's easy enough to recognise. We get chatting and he shows me around his dead city. We talk about everything under the sun and naturally we don't neglect the state of India today. A plot develops, a story within a story, of romance and adventure that carries the emperor to the India-Pakistan border for a crackling climax," Sealy told IANS about his just-released book.
But Akbar has been a recurring personality in many recent books, both fiction and non-fiction. Most lately, Shazi Zaman's book on the Mughal emperor gained critical acclaim. And that is not all -- a number of books have even been written on Akbar's court at Fatehpur Sikri as well. What should the readers expect from this book?
The 66-year-old writer responded saying that there's a chequered stone terrace in the Diwan-i-khas at Sikri where, contemporary accounts say, Akbar used to play a kind of human chess that must have looked like a pageant. These books make one imagine costumes, perhaps music, in a kind of charade.
"My book is set up as a masque, that is to say a dramatic production of the kind once staged at royal courts, full of trumpets and kettledrums and incident and colour. At the same time it's not frivolous entertainment; I think the Mughal history that underwrites it breathes through the text. I hope the themes it tackles -- kingship, loyalty, fatherhood and sacrifice -- will be apparent to serious readers.
"And I made a deliberate effort to flesh out Akbar the man, rather than the king. The fact that this is poetry, a novel in verse, means you can't breeze through as you might with conventional historical fiction; much of the pleasure is literary, to be savoured line by line," he maintained.
The offering at hand is a classic mix of prose and poetry. Sealy said that they are actually the same substance, "like India and Pakistan", but each has become a little inflexible over time. It's time the barbed wire came down.
Asked about his effortless weaving together of poetry and prose, he said: "Poetry is more pared back, it's language under greater pressure, so naturally it's less readily achieved and appreciated, but prose too can be compressed, and it can contain vatic elements, so it's not always a simple expository medium. The weaving together you speak of came quite naturally, but I would like also to think there's a mingling."
The author, whose novel "The Everest Hotel: A Calendar" was shortlisted for the 1998 Booker prize, said that many years ago a friend had dropped him off at Fatehpur Sikri. It was one of the hottest days of the year but Sealy was unfazed by the extreme weather as he sat in a water garden on the hill and came under the spell of the place.
Recalling the day, the much-acclaimed writer went on to add that the place has a little pavilion with a fretted stone water race and a pool, where one can sit in the sunken garden in the heart of summer and be utterly content.
"I had been to Sikri before but never alone and this time the solitude wrung some poems. The next time I took a sketch book and spent a week on the hill, and after that I was a constant visitor," he elaborated on how the idea of this book came about.
Underlying the depiction of a rich and varied court life at Sikri in the book are reflections on kingship, a meditation on fathers and sons, and a plot within a plot that tells a crackling story of love across the Pakistan border -- while through it all strides the nimble ghost of Akbar himself. Jalaluddin (Zelaldinus) Akbar.
Sealy said he has tried -- with every book -- to discover forms that belong here, so that the shape and the style of the artefact take on a local character. He said that he did not believe in simply telling a local story but using local techniques. It should go beyond flavour, the way tea tastes different in a kulhar.

I wake at 5:30 most mornings—usually before the jarring shriek of the alarm clock—but this morning, Saturday and off from the day job, I'm here pecking away at 3am. Unable to sleep, there are too many thoughts rolling through my consciousness, words looking for a sentence, sentences searching for the right paragraph to give the narrative that extra special boost.
On work days I write until about 7:30am and therein begins the hardest and most difficult hour of my day—when I am forced to stop writing and get ready for the job that pays the bills and keeps food on the table. There comes to me a dilemma each of those days, a tearing of my soul and a twisting of my equilibrium when I have to stop writing.
I love to write, sometimes to my detriment. There are instances when I know I should be doing something else (mowing the lawn, spending time with family and friends, reading a favorite author), but still I slip into my chair to give opportunity for the words to pour forth. I think of the line in When Harry Met Sally where Billy Crystal says to Meg Ryan in regard to her pursuing a journalism career, "so that you can write about things that happen to other people."
Many times, that is what a writer does: observe other people's reaction to living that can one day be used in a description or a basic idea or trait within one's writing. There are times when I wonder if I am missing out, shuttering myself away to create rather than "doing" something. Now don't get me wrong, I have accomplished many things during my life; raised a family, worked since I was 15 years old, traveled to Europe several times—all of which is fodder for future writing. I guess that is the point, at least for me: everything translates into my writing in one way or another, whether an obvious connection or a single thread weaved throughout the larger tapestry that is my life.
More than what I do, writing encompasses who I am. I have no regrets (well, at least not too many), and I find the greatest joy during the creation process. You see, writing is not about making money (though that would be nice), nor is it about a million people reading what I have written (though I would not complain), but about who and what I am, my passion, and what brings me the most satisfaction.
Finding your passion, that one thing that gets you the most excited—and following that passion—is the greatest gift you can give yourself. Whether it be writing, painting, or working at a food line serving the less fortunate, everyone has something that lifts their spirits and turns an otherwise ordinary day into a thing of wonder. Find your passion and you will be a happier person, and as a reward, you may even inspire others to follow their aspirations. We are given one life—make the most of it.
What is your passion and how does it impact your life? Please share in the comment section where others can gain from your observations and insights, and have an impassioned day!

Gas Furnace Maintenance Tips – Keep Your Furnace Running Smoothly
Date: November 17, 2017
You should maintain your gas furnace every season to prolong its life and keep it working properly. Here are some furnace maintenance tasks you can do yourself, but you can always hire a professional if you don't feel comfortable doing them:
- Ensure Your Safety First – Before doing furnace maintenance, shut off the gas supply and power it off to prevent accidents. The gas line is typically connected to the furnace in a black pipe and has a shut-off valve nearby. The power switch can be found on the side of the furnace – if not, shut off the appropriate breaker at the electrical panel.
- Clean the Furnace Interior – Open the furnace door and clean all crevices and inner components of dust and debris with a soft-tipped paint brush. Then, vacuum out the base of the furnace, the gas burners, and inner components using a vacuum cleaner with a long snorkel attachment.
- Check the Thermostat Wires – Once you've shut off the power to the furnace and opened its door, pull the furnace wires slightly to ensure they're tight and properly fitted.
- Replace the Air Filter – The filter traps dirt and dust, maintaining the efficiency of the furnace. Check and change the air filter monthly during the heating season, but read the manufacturer's instructions on how often to change the filter.
- Clean the Blower – Located just behind the air filter, the blower can accumulate dirt and dust that penetrates through the air filter. To clean the blower, first remove it (unscrew the two bolts that keep it in place) and carefully clean the blower blades with a small brush, as well as the blower assembly with a damp cloth. Vacuum the dirt and dust once you've brushed off the blower.
- Check the Drive Belt – This component can get too loose or suffer fraying, glazing or cracks. Check it for damage and ensure it feels tight but not too loose (it should deflect ½ to ¾ inches when pushing down in the center of the belt). If it's extra loose or damaged in any way, replace it.
- Clean the Flame Sensor – Over time, residue builds up on the flame sensor which may stop the furnace from working. Pull down the sensor from its bracket and clean it carefully with a fine emery cloth. Place it back into its bracket once it's clean.
- Clean the Furnace Ducts – As dust and dirt accumulate in the furnace ducts, it should be cleaned to keep the furnace working at maximum efficiency. Professional duct cleaning is your best bet at cleaning out your ducts thoroughly.
Follow these furnace maintenance tips and you'll save yourself some expenses if your furnace stops working during a cold winter night! Check out additional home heating safety tips and electric heater safety rules just in case. For professional smoke remediation or fire damage repair, contact your local PuroClean office.

Newbie seeking assistance on job searches. (Houston)
I am relatively new to Houston, migrated here from Kenya in May. I would like to find a job as a quality engineer at an oil and gas company, but I have notice that I keep applying and rarely get called for an interview.
Any suggestion will be greatly appreciated.
