The Hudson Valley Renegades play in Wappingers Falls, New York, except for one small detail, which is that they don't. The team's address says Wappingers Falls, but the team is actually located in nearby Fishkill. Fishkill and Wappingers Falls, incidentally, do not touch. If there is any logic to this, it is apparent only to the people at the United States Postal Service, because damn sure I don't understand it. In any case, in the process of doing the research for this review, I checked out the Wikipedia page for both towns, and on the page for Wappingers Falls I read one of the funniest things I've seen on a webpage in a long time. I am speaking of the following sentence:
"The repeal of the tariff made it impossible for the company to compete with German-made combs."
Now, in context, this might not seem unreasonable. However, it's hard to say because there's not really any context here. The previous sentence mentions the closing of the comb company, but there's no other mention of the comb company, including no mention of its founding. The town history mentions the creation of a cotton mill, the opening of a printworks, the closing of the cotton mill, the closing of a comb factory which gets no mention other than the fact that it closed, and the closing of the printworks. Why those three business, and only those three, are worthy of mention is a mystery to me, but I find it delightfully random.
Better still, there's a section devoted to "Places of Worship". The section has subsections for an Episcopal Church, a Baptist Church, and a Presbyterian Church, and then mentions in passing "Other places of worship include United Methodist Church of Wappingers Falls, and St. Mary's Roman Catholic Church." That's it. Apparently, Episcopalians and Baptists and Presbyterians in Wappingers Falls are cool but Catholics and Methodists are lame. Actually, the Catholic church gets its own web page, but is still hardly mentioned on the Wappingers Falls page. As for the Methodist church, if anyone gives a shit about it, they've never been involved in editing anything on Wikipedia.
Anyway, the team decided to say they are from "Hudson Valley", which I suspect is because even they aren't certain where they are. Or maybe they do know where they are but feel that "Fishkill" is too silly to use in their team name. Personally, I feel the exact opposite: "Fishkill" is too silly to not use in their team name. If I owned a baseball team in Fishkill, rest assured that I'd use "Fishkill" as part of its name, and I'd probably give it some truly dreadful team name as well — the Fishkill Fish Killers or Fishkill Killer Fish or something equally bad. And you don't even want to contemplate the logo, because let's face it: If you name a team the Fishkill Killer Fish, the logo has to be something completely ludicrous. It would probably be the first team to earn a Bush League Factor score with four digits. I'd actually make that my goal. Because no way does a team called the Fishkill Killer Fish deserve anything less. But the team went with the relatively normal name of Hudson Valley Renegades. As for the logo, it's not going to earn a four-digit score, but did want to make certain they had at least a two-digit score, because they stuck a raccoon in the logo for no good reason.
As best as I can determine, the Hudson Valley Renegades have used a raccoon in their logo for as long as they've been the Hudson Valley Renegades. I can't find an explanation why. I can think of a couple of possibilities — it's a local animal; the mask over its eyes makes it look like a bandit — but neither convinces me. Local animal? Raccoons are a local animal over most of the contiguous United States, roughly half of Canada, and all of Latin America (they're also been introduced in Germany, the Caucases, and Japan, incidentally). As for the mask making it look like a bandit, that may be true, but do you know what else looks like a bandit? A bandit, that's what.
But that being said, I really do like the way they've drawn the raccoon in this logo. I think I've mentioned before that I like logos that make prominent use of negative space, and this logo does an excellent job of that. I also like the highly abstract nature of the raccoon's face. I'll take this over some cartoony drawing any day of the week. At least, I will since the team is called the Hudson Valley Renegades. If they were the Fishkill Fish Killers, that would be a different story.
Final Score: 47 points.

Toowoomba Real Estate Agents now include hi tech Cloud Real Estate. But who is behind the 360 Photos and Targeted Advertising?
We will forgive you if you have never heard of us, after all a lot of the technology we use is hardly 12 months old. However, we have still managed to clock up a string of Million+ sales, including some of the oldest real estate listings in Queensland. Listing that baffled Local Agents for years and left owners frustrated.
Our Solution was not to go slashing the property prices, nor to spend tens of thousands of the owners money on advertising in newspapers and real estate magazines.
Our solution is to use the latest technology to step away from the traditional geographical based model and market the properties to Targeted Audiences.
Our team is a combination of decades of Real Estate experience in Sydney's Eastern Suburbs hot Auction market and a Corporate Information Technology & Business Development Background.
When it comes to selling the best of Toowoomba Real Estate, Local Toowoomba Real Estate Agents can often lack the experience to market and negotiate unique property. Toowoomba Real Estate Auctions can often be a lonely event with No bidders and No Action but BIG budgets. At Cloud Real Estate we have the skills and experience to make sure the buyers go all the way to auction and we have the marketing techniques to attract more buyers for less advertising outlay.
Proof of Concept – Succeeding where many others have failed – Cloud Real Estate Agent Annette Anderson's Million+
April 2017 $1,977,000 – 267 Laceys Creek Road Dayboro – Possibly Queensland's oldest listing until recently and a sale that stumped many local "experts"
December 2016 $1,262,500 – 8 Andrew Clark Rd Whiteside – A new whiteside record for residential real estate. Sold in 12 hours prior to Auction
October 2016 $1,385,000 – 549 Mt Kilcoy Rd Mt Kilcoy – Sold under the hammer at auction. For sale for over 3 years
October 2016 $2,100,000 – 190 Freds Rd Ocean View – For sale for years. Cloud Real Estate Agent Annette Anderson sold it to the first buyer she introduced
May 2016 $1,849,800 – Top Diaper Rd Jimna – Other Agents tried for over 6 years, Cloud Real Estate Agent Annette Anderson sold it in the first week to a cash buyer
Cloud, New Agents with New Ideas

No snow – no problem, Swiss will make it. I spend the last week of 2016 in Davos. I was struggling between going skiing or cross-country skiing as usual, but as soon as I saw the green mountains with white stripes of artificial snow in the middle, I decided for the latter. The snow at trails was artificial too (at least some of it) but it felt as usual. After light snowing, the fields were white so the feeling was good.
Why cross-country skiing?
It is a great sport and everyone can do it! It is a full-body workout as it combines a lower body and upper body workout, while simultaneously working both the "pulling" and "pushing" muscles pf each region. Even muscles that don't seem to be in use are actively involved to balance and coordinate the entire body (you will know it when waking up in the morning after the intense practice). Cross-country skiing is an excellent form of cross-training and great way to prepare for summer sports and therefore perfect winter work out for practically all athletes – it is an excellent aerobic workout and no single muscle group is over-stressed, which means you can do it for hours. While exercising, you maintain an elevated heart rate, strengthen and improve your heart's capacity to pump blood efficiently and effectively. To sum up – improves cardiovascular endurance. Last but not least, it is an outdoor activity and a great way to enjoy the sunny (or less sunny) winter's day.

Why Davos?
Davos is VERY friendly place for cross-country skiing. There are many kilometres of trails for skating and classic, there is even a trail where you can go with a dog. The people of Davos are really friendly to the tourists and do everything to attract them. They storage snow and put it on the trails where there is no natural snow. In this case, about 6 km of trails are open which makes it a perfect loop for a workout. There are more trails in Klosters and together with Davos there are over 100 km trails when all are open! The trails are superbly well prepared and I enjoy the cross-country skiing each time.
Photo source: http://www.davos.ch
First time?
If you are a beginner, Davos is perfect place to get to known this beautiful sport. You can rent the equipment in one of the many shops and you don't need any special clothes (winter-running trousers, a light jacket, the gloves and a cap will do). I recommend to hire a coach for the first lesson who will explain how everything works. But the classical technique is really easy (probably not to master, but to move forward and work out) so you can start to work out really fast. The trails around the sports centre are pretty easy, the trails leading to the valleys are for experienced cross-country skiers. However, the place around the sports centre can be pretty crowded, but there are less people on the other trails and you can really enjoy the beautiful nature while working out. And don't get frustrated if someone surpasses you with an unbelievable speed – the world class athletes are training there.
Where to stay, what to eat?
Davos is not a destination for rich people only. There are many expensive and less expensive hotels in (ask Booking or Expedia or similar pages) but there are also many apartments to rent. I prefer to stay in an apartment close to the cross-country trail. I miss the breakfast, but the hotels can be really pricey therefore I manage to survive with my muesli in the morning. If you have no idea where to go, write to the tourist office and they will make you a suggestion that meets your needs and budget. If staying in apartment, you can cook by yourself of course. If too lazy, you can find many restaurants in the town. Less expensive are the menus at lunch time or the Migros restaurant.
My suggestion for a perfect evening is taking a cable car to Schatzalp and have one of their menus or a cheese fondue there. If enough snow, there is a tobogganing way (open also in the evening) which takes you back to Davos (sledge rental is at cable car station in Davos).
Photo source: http://www.schatzalp.ch
What else?
When staying in Davos, there is a bus ticket included in touristic tax so you don't need your car there.
Other sports: skiing, of course, wandering or snowshoeing and winter walks, swimming (25 m indoor pool), ice skating, curling, shopping, and nightlife.

One of my favorite post workout snacks is a simple sweet potato. When I get to the gym I pop it in the microwave for 8 minutes and by the time I'm finished working out, it has cooled down and ready to eat.
As you know from my ancient blog post "Post Workout Nutrition," you know that your body is looking refill its muscle glycogen after a tough workout. Since I am not looking to lose fat, a post workout snack/meal makes sense. In fact, since I'm trying to gain some mass, I also include 24 oz. of whole milk, SFH whey protein, some BCAAs, and creatine monohydrate.
A medium size sweet potato (5″) has about 25g carbohydrates and less fructose than fruit. This makes it a better choice than fruit because fructose gets shuttled to the liver to get processed before heading to your hungry muscles. I would not say fruit is a terrible post workout choice, but for me it is not the best.
I definitely get some looks whilst peeling my sweet potato, even from fellow CrossFitters, but when it comes to my post workout nutrition, simple is best. If you are looking for a tastier option, my earlier post workout post (see what I did there?) details a recipe for sweet potato mash with apple sauce and protein powder.
Remember, there are two groups that typically do not need a post workout refill of glycogen: if you are solely strength training then you are staying in the CP phase and if you are looking to lose fat mass, your body can use its own resources (fat) for fuel.

The Peruvian Minister of Energy and Mines, Eleodoro Mayorga, introduced the Peruvian Energy Plan today during the UN Climate Change Conference in Lima, Peru. The plan proposes that Peru, in the coming decade, will meet its electricity needs through a combination of renewable energy sources and natural gas, Peru's lowest-cost natural energy resource. Peru intends to generate 60 percent of its electricity through renewable sources by 2024.
Earlier this year, the Peruvian Government and IRENA cooperated on a renewable energy readiness assessment for the country. The assessment identifies further actions that need to be taken to expand the share of renewables in Peru, as well as how to better complement rural electrification and improve on-going efforts to foster the development of bio fuel in the country.

Build Guide by omglolbacon

Twisted Fate Build
Ability Sequence
Not Updated For Current Season
The masteries shown here are not yet updated for the current season, the guide author needs to set up the new masteries. As such, they will be different than the masteries you see in-game.
NOTE: This build is a specific TF build for counter against tank heavy teams and thus revolves around bloodrazor and high attack speed. It also abuses TF's stacked deck passive and Sword of the divine passive. This build is not as effective against dps teams.
Summoner spells: I always take teleport for extra map control. Some say it isn't necessary but I like it because it helps in defending middle lane early game. But with this much map control, you can be anywhere on the map at any time.
Ignite: this is never a bad choice on a dps character.
alternate spells: exhaust, ghost.
Item explanation:
vampiric scepter: i get this item first for the main purpose of more stable laning early game.
Phantom Dancer: The main purpose for this item is its attack speed and movement speed. this item along with greaves makes TF faster than most characters allowing him to chase and hit stun cards. This is very helpful for stunning stragglers and taking them down.
Early game: Try to take middle if you can. If you have stubborn teammates tell them you need the early port and can help gank :D. With vampiric scepter as your fist item, it helps you lane longer. I like to lane and last hit creeps until i have 925 gold, then i blue pill back for greaves and port right back with tele. After greaves, start building either bloodrazor or phantom dancer depending on how tanky the other team is.
Mid Game: During mid game, you should now be racking up pretty significant creep kills and porting around the map to help teammates when they need it. To be a good TF player you must be able to pull stun cards consistently. With many creep kills and hopefully some hero kills, you should have either bloodrazor or phantom dancer finished and start working on the other. I consider these to be the two main items in this build.
Late Game: Now you should have your two main items built, and should get a Sword of the Divine. With high attack speed, stacked deck, sword of the divine passive, and bloodrazor passive, your damage output will be very high against champtions and minions. One stun card will allow you to hit a champion 5 or 6 times, easily dealing more than 1k damage depending on their health.
Remember, the main focus of this build is ATTACK SPEED! not damage or armor pen. the bloodthirster at the end gives you some damage but that is just to help you damage output.
If you have any questions please ask, and give good criticism plz. Thanks for reading and hope it works for you!

Everyone loves to wear watches, and like to sport them just like jewelry. These help have a sense of time and punctuality in life, and also makes wearers look stylish as an item of fashion. Most individuals, particularly men, love to wear them only to display their style and elegance. Most women like to wear these watches as accessories, more than any kind of jewelry. LED watches and Smart watches are two new types of watches that come with new technology. Read on to know about these stylish watches. These offer a perfect blend of style and technology.
LED Watches
At one time, standard watches were regarded as the supreme type of scientific technology. However, once digital watches began to come into the market and could be availed at low cost, everyone could have a wrist watch of their own. LED watch is a new form of watch which has lately come into the market. Similar to older digital watches, these come with a digital display. These come with an innovative, trendy and stylish appearance and also display the date in a varied way. Getting habituated to the dial of LED watches can take some time, although it can be a hot topic to discuss with pals.
These days, LED watches are very popular and come in varied colors and attractive designs. These are not simply high technology stuff to wrap about the wrist, but practical items that can match your dress and display your style sense. You can find such types of watches online from almost every company that makes them. Such kinds of watches come with colorful display and make great fashion statements.
Smart Watches
These watches come with a comparatively new type of technology. Smart-watches are generally wearable devices which can help you to maintain constant wireless linkup with your smartphone. You can get social media updates, instant messaging, incoming calls, notifications and more coming into your smart watch.
Some of the watches also allow you to receive and send phone calls straightaway from the device itself. Even newer devices can also function as smartphones by themselves without the need of a paired phone close at hand. Similar to smartphones, smart watches can allow you to operate various apps. These include navigation applications which can guide you about thoroughfares as you drive around, fitness and health apps which can keep track of your exercise activities, and other apps which can control different activities on your phone, such as a camera. Most of the smartphones run on open platforms with unique and new applications which can add to the capability of smart watches.
Such types of watches offer you a terrific way to use brand new technology. As compared to analog watches, these tend to last for a longer time and come with more affordable price tags as they have only a handful of moveable components. The watches that come with a quartz timing crystal tend to offer more accurate results as compared to the priciest Swiss motion watches that can be found in the market.

Oral cancer is often deemed the "forgotten disease," because it kills more people than testicular cancer, cervical cancer and cancer of the brain each year and receives little publicity in return. Each year, over 30,000 Americans contract oral cancer, and only 57% of these people will live for more than five years without treatment.
Many people believe that if they abstain from tobacco and alcohol use, oral cancer will not affect them. Tobacco and alcohol use does contribute to oral cancer; however, 25% of those diagnosed abstain from both substances.
The best way to stay protected from oral cancer is to get annual oral cancer screenings. Most dentists perform an oral cancer exam during a regular dental checkup. The FDA-approved VELscope® offers dentists another examination tool to help detect oral cancer in its earliest stages. The VELscope® is a blue excitation lamp, which highlights precancerous and cancerous cell changes.
How does the VELscope® work?
The VELscope® uses Fluorescence Visualization (FV) in an exciting new way. Essentially, bright blue light is shone into the mouth to expose changes and lesions that would otherwise be invisible to the naked eye. One of the biggest difficulties in diagnosing oral cancer is that its symptoms look similar to symptoms of less serious problems. The VELscope® System affords the dentist important insight as to what is happening beneath the surface.
The healthy soft tissue of the mouth naturally absorbs the VELscope® frequency of blue light. Healthy areas beneath the surface of the soft tissue show up green, and the problem areas become much darker.
Here are some of the advantages of using the VELscope® System:
How is the VELscope® examination performed?
The VELscope® examination literally takes only two or three minutes. It is a painless and noninvasive procedure that saves many lives every single year.
Here is a brief overview of what a VELscope® examination is like:
Initially, the dentist will perform a regular visual examination of the whole lower face. This includes the glands, tongue, cheeks and palate as well as the teeth. Next a pre-rinse solution is swilled around the mouth for slightly less than a minute. The dentist provides special eyewear to protect the integrity of the retinas. The lights in the room are dimmed to allow a clear view of the oral cavity.
The small VELscope® is bent to project blue light inside the mouth. Lesions and other indicators of oral cancer are easily noticeable because they appear much darker under the specialized light.
If symptoms are noted, the dentist may take a biopsy there and then to determine whether or not this is oral cancer. The results of the biopsy dictate the best course of action from there. Otherwise, another oral cancer screening is performed in one year's time.
If you have any questions or concerns about oral cancer screening or the VELscope® system, please contact our office.
Friendly, professional, quality work, great communication with the patient for the entire process. Careful discussion of the options and financial structures. No Surprises. Highly Recommend.
Greg T.
I've been going here for years and the staff have always been friendly and remember who you are. Dr. Mack also goes so far as to personally call the evening after major procedures to ensure that you are doing well. The office has great options for keeping you entertained during long procedures, such as listening to music or watching movies. They also stay up to date with the newest dental procedures. I got to enjoy this as I just recently watched a movie while they scanned my mouth, designed and milled my crown and then had it put in place all in one visit. I can't recommend them enough.

We explore this concept on the new website and welcome in the mentality of seniority through our experiences in the military. We strive to be motivators and leaders for you older men out there, showing you that age is just a number and that getting in the best shape and health is achievable at any age.
In addition, keeping with the military in mind, we have decided to make charitable contributions to wounded veterans moving forward from Seniority Health. We are all about giving back to you guys, providing the content, workouts, nutrition, and tips that all men over 40 need to know about, and we wouldn't be able to do it not for the sacrifices and dedication of those fighting to keep us safe and our freedom intact.

Horseshoe Lake - Alpine Pond - Borel Hill is a 6.1 mile lightly trafficked loop trail located near Los Altos, California that features a lake and is rated as moderate. The trail offers a number of activity options and is accessible year-round. Horses are also able to use this trail.
kid friendly
horseback riding
mountain biking
nature trips
trail running
wild flowers
no dogs
This trail includes a trip around Horseshoe Lake, nice views on the Ridge Trail (Ipawa Trail or Butano View Trail), Alpine Pond and an ascent up Russian Ridge to Borel Hill. There are enough options to make the return along a slightly different route, and Alpine Pond is an excellent place to stop for a break, especially during the weekend when the Nature Center is open.
Lovely views. Road noise can be
Loud at times
This loop is a bit of a challenge for kids under 10yo, but doable as a 3-5h walk. It definitely has enough variation to keep them interested for the whole distance. Alpine Pond is a good midpoint, and it's possible to shortcut the loop there if the ascent to Borel Hill turns out to be too much. During our visit in early May we saw amazing wildflower displays, lots of birds and two coyotes wandering near the trail.

IF little Joel Hales-Waller needed any proof that dreams can come true, this
was it.
The ten-year-old Paralympic hopeful, who has had a leg amputated, had just
come face to face with a dolphin.
It was all thanks to charity Dreamflight, which gives disabled children the
holiday of a lifetime.
He then had the chance to hold the Paralympic silver medal won by British
swimmer Nyree Kindred — who was on the very first Dreamflight trip, 25 years
Joel, who has a condition called PTEN which causes abnormal growth of his
organs and limbs, said: "I want to be a Paralympic swimmer one day. I went
to watch the Paralympics in London and it was awesome.
"I go swimming a lot so if I practise hard I could get in the team."
Nyree, husband Sascha, who also won a swimming silver at London 2012, and baby
daughter Ella joined a group of 192 Dreamflight children on a trip to
Orlando, Florida.
It was an emotional return for Nyree, who has won ten Paralympic medals over
four Games.
She said: "I was only seven or eight when I went on Dreamflight, but I still
remember how exciting it was to be going on this big adventure to Florida.
I'd never been with many other disabled children and it showed me that
disability didn't matter.
"We were all just children on holiday having fun."
Nyree has cerebral palsy. It means that she has trouble with her balance and
little control over her legs, so she uses a wheelchair most of the time.
She added: "Seeing the looks on these children's faces, seeing how happy they
are, is amazing.
"They are just kids being kids — carefree for a while."
The first Dreamflight trip was supposed to be a one-off, but it was such a
success that the charity has run the holiday annually since 1987.
In that time, 4,800 disabled and ill children have been flown to the Florida
theme parks, including SeaWorld Orlando and Discovery Cove.
The mammoth ten-day trips require a specially chartered British Airways flight
and a volunteer army of 15 doctors, 54 nurses, 13 physiotherapists and
several non-medical chaperones.
Dreamflight was the brainchild of British Airways cabin crew member Pat
Pearce, who still runs the trips. Pat said: "The idea came after too much
wine one night. The cabin crew had just had a really feelgood day working
with disabled children in Birmingham.
"That night I made a throwaway comment, 'Next year we're going to Florida!'
But when the effects of the wine wore off I realised I actually really
wanted to do it. I had no idea I'd still be doing it 26 years later.
"But these children really deserve a treat, so I could never walk away."
Nyree and Sascha know how hard it is to grow up with a disability.
Sascha has a form of cerebral palsy called hemiplegia, which affects his right
side. He walks with a limp and can't use his right hand properly.
He said: "At school in Oldham I was picked on quite a bit because I had a
disability. It was hard.
"There are still things that stick in my mind, like kids throwing stones at me
and shouting horrible names. But it's made me stronger today."
Sascha initially struggled to find a swimming club that would teach someone
with his condition. But he went on to win 12 Paralympic medals, six of them
He said: "There are young people here who are just discovering their
disabilities and learning how to deal with them every day. I hope the
Paralympics has shown that it doesn't matter what your disability is, there
is still so much that you can do.
"After London 2012 we all think that inspiring youngsters is part of our role
as athletes. That's why it's nice to be here with kids who want to be the
next Sascha or Nyree Kindred."
Among the children most excited to meet Paralympic GB's "golden couple" was
Bella Thornton, ten, who is visually impaired.
As she held their medals she gasped: "They're so heavy! My sister is always
teasing me and saying, 'Bella, if there is one thing you will never be, it's
a Paralympic champion.' But if Nyree can do it, I can too."
For Bella, as for Nyree, swimming is a form of freedom.
Nyree explained: "There is independence in the water and the feeling that you
are just like everybody else.
"On land I've got rubbish balance, but in the water I just move around with no
All of the Dreamflight children got to experience that sense of freedom. Some
had never swum before and several spend most of their lives in wheelchairs,
but everyone ventured into the water at Discovery Cove, to swim with the
It was the climax of a week of firsts, which had seen the children brave
roller coasters and spend time away from their families.
Lewis Toffield, 14, from Durham, was probably the first teen to teach the
theme park characters how to dance Gangnam Style. He was one of the
bubbliest boys on the trip, despite suffering from Pearson's Syndrome, a
disorder which affects his ability to absorb nutrients.
And for Erin Brewer, eight, who has severe cystic fibrosis, the whole thing
was magical. She said: "I take so many pills and they don't taste very nice.
I've had two operations and I get worn out easily. It is hard.
"I'd never been on a plane before and now I'm in Florida and I swam with a
dolphin. I wish every day was like this."
Nyree hopes this adventure will help these kids to dream big: "One of the kids
said, 'How do you swim with your chair?' I said my legs don't work but I can
get in the pool and swim. If I can do it, anyone can, and he said, 'Wow, I
want to do it too'."

AcademicIamA Author, Viking expert, and speaker at the International Medieval Congress in Leeds AMA!
Jan 21st 2017 by cjadrien • 36 Questions • 4177 Points
C.J. Adrien is a French-American author with a passion for Viking history. His Kindred of the Sea series was inspired by research conducted in preparation for a doctoral program in early medieval history as well as his admiration for historical fiction writers such as Bernard Cornwell and Ken Follett. He has most recently been invited to speak at the International Medieval Congress at the University of Leeds this summer.
Thanks to everyone who participated and asked questions. If you'd like to read more about the Vikings, check out my blog. This was my first Reddit experience, and I had a great time! That's it for me, Skal!
I received a phone call telling me this thread was getting a lot of questions, still. I am back for another hour to answer your questions. Start time 11:35am PST to 12:30pm PST.
Ok folks, I did my best to get to all of you. This was a blast! But, alas, I must sign off. I will have to do one of these again sometime. Signing off (1:20pm PST). Thank you all for a great time!
How accurate is the tv show vikings?
Thread | Permalink
The show has its merits, but of course it falls short in several respects. The timeline is all out of whack. It jumps around hundreds of years, and cares little for the actual timeline of the Viking Age.
But despite all its shortcomings, I think the real question is, "how accurate does it need to be?" It is, after all, historical fiction, and while we all expect a measure of authenticity in its presentation, the goal is to entertain. In my mind, the show Vikings' greatest merit is that it has cultivated tremendous attention to the actual history of the Vikings, which in turn is giving this field of study a much needed boost.
On the TV show Vikings, religion is very important. How accurately is religion portrayed?
Also any good documentaries or sources you could recommend for more detailed info (more detailed than a reddit response) on Viking religion and also influence of Christianity?
Thread | Permalink
Well, the thing about the pagan norse is that what we know about their religion is not entirely reliable. Most stories from their mythology were written down centuries after the Christianization of Scandinavia. Therefore, we are left with the basic structure of their mythology, but too many questions to know for sure what it was like. So the show does what it can within this context. If you are interested in the Vikings' religion, I encourage you to start with their mythology. I enjoyed "The Norse Myths" by Kevin Crossley Holland.
How much evidence is there for the existence of Ragnar and for his story's? Or are they entirely myth
What we know about Ragnar is from an account written hundreds of years after the fact. He is considered to be a semi-legendary figure, and as such there is no reliable evidence to support he was real. There are several real historical figures who are candidates for being the inspiration for Ragnar, but no one agrees which one is the best fit. The story of Ragnar and his sons, as far as historians can tell, are part of a foundational narrative that was created during the Danelaw in England when the Danish rulers sought to legitimize their titles. So it's very likely it was all made up. However, there are real historical figures who are alleged sons of Ragnar, such as Bjorn Ironside, Ivar the Boneless, and Hastein, but of course it is surmised that they may have just said they were sons of Ragnar to legitimize their leadership, like the kings of Europe did by forging documents tracing their houses back to Charlemagne.
Ragnar sacked Paris in 845 and it documented by the Franks, isn't that proof enough that he existed?
Ah, but was it really Ragnar? The name mentioned as the leader of the attack in the Annales of St. Bertin is Reginfred, who is sometimes asserted with Ragnar, but there is no consensus. There are also problems with associating Ragnar with this figure, chiefly that the semi-legendary figure of Ragnar would have been impossibly old in 845 A.D. So no, it's not proof enough that he existed.
Whilst you and I know what "historical fiction" means, I think it needs to be more accurate when dealing with people/situations that may have existed on any level... at least slightly. As if these stories need exaggerating anyway!
Titanic and The Tudors taught us that this stuff is widely believed these days. There are actually 18 year old guys who now believe Cardinal Wolsey broke his own neck on his way to the tower, for example. Some bloke called Jack who died on the Titanic? His grave is now a goddamn PILGRIMAGE site...

I tend to agree with you, the show creators really deviated from any shred of credibility. The opening season was actually quite good. But ratings, it seems, are too powerful a force for History Channel to ignore.
What are the main myths concerning their culture. Are they the gruesome barbarians the history books are depicting them?
Well, they didn't have horns, that was an invention of a costume designer at the Berlin opera in the 1880's.
I think the big myth that should be dispelled is that they were not more violent that the other peoples of Europe at the time. In fact, one of the [many] causes of the launch of the Viking Age may have been war atrocities committed by the Carolingians against the Danes' neighbors, the Saxons. So to say that they were terribly violent barbarians is not entirely accurate. They were violent, but so was everyone else.
It has. Particularly, we are more aware than ever of just how good of progenitors the Vikings were. They spread their seed far and wide, and now we can track where and how much through DNA. Great question.
So how much further than Scandinavia/Finland did their DNA spread to?
Thread | Permalink
In terms of actually DNA tests, the field is in its infancy and has yet to map everything out, but it holds great promise for the future. From historical and archeological sources, however, we may predict with fair accuracy that Vikings spread their genes to the British Isles, France, Iberia, all the Baltic States, and Eastern Europe, chiefly Russia and Ukraine, and even Turkey (via the Varangian Guard).
I love to relax at the end of a long day by watching a good documentary or two; what documentaries do you recommend that pertain to your area of study?

Ah, well, I read books mostly so my list of documentaries is quite short :)
Well what books would you recommend?

Start with the primary sources: https://classesv2.yale.edu/access/content/user/haw6/Vikings/index.html
John Haywood's new book is also very good for a broad overview.
Have you spent much time in Sweden? We have significant Viking memorials, such as Haväng, Ales Stena, Kungagraven, Anundshög (also includes a MASSIVE Stone burial ship and an entire village complete with working ships, huts and food.
I have not spent much time in Sweden, but I began my studies on the Vikings on the subject of the Swedish Vikings, the Rus, and arguably they are the ones I know the most about. I do plan on a longer trip to Sweden in the near future.
How were women treated in Viking society? I've heard they were considered equals in many aspects.
Thread | Permalink
It is true that women held certain rights their southern neighbors did not. How this played into the fabric of their society is a complex question, and one must be wary not to conflate out of romanticized optimism as I have seen done recently. But, if this is something that interests you, the historian Judith Jesch has done the most extensive work of anyone out there on the subject of women's role in Norse society, drawing from textual and archeological evidence to form her conclusions. I encourage you to look up her books to learn more.
I studied Viking Studies BA at the University of Nottingham and part of my study was specifically on Viking attitudes to women. Ridiculously, I never actually studied under Judith due to conflicting timetables, however we shared a joke about Havamal translations in my first year, which was cool I guess.
I made a point in a (now) far lower comment on the concept of 'rape and pillage' and feel that it would be useful to copy it here as an addendum to your statement. Rape, of course, is not the only factor to study how women were treated, but the results are telling.
The concept of Vikings 'raping' isn't quite founded, at least not as a unique character trait. Unfortunately acts of sexual violence have been a reality of war throughout history and this undoubtedly includes Viking raiders; however, from a historical perspective, there are actually few contemporary sources which refer to Viking rape in raiding situations. Specifically, it is alluded to once by Roger of Wendover (who was writing about an event long after its occurrence) and once by Adrevald of Fleury, who refers to the raiders' 'ludibria' of maidens. The word 'ludibria', usually translated as 'mockery', suggests rape. However, the uniqueness of this evidence and the relatively common reports of raping warriors in contemporary cultures like the Carolingians suggests that it actually was a relatively uncommon Viking act.
On the non-raiding side, we see some strong punitive laws in Scandinavia against sexual aggression; unfortunately the only source I can find right now is this less-than-credible secondary source: https://satwcomic.com/keep-your-hands-to-yourself , but maybe /u/cjadrien can find something better.
In the literary accounts, on the seldom occasions where rape is depicted, it is used to humiliate or as an act of vengeance (in Guðmundar saga dýra and Völundarkviða respectively).
Hope that's of interest.

Thanks for this wonderful comment. I don't know that I'll be able to dig up a source on the internet for such a thing, but a book, probably. Although, I'll have to do some real digging to find one.
I do not know if you are aware, but a recent study came out to say that many of the dead found in a few mass grave sites dating to the Viking age contained women. Many jumped to the occasion to say it meant that half of Viking warriors were women. I interpret the findings more as the Vikings brought their own women to the places they intended to colonies, and for culture reasons preferred not to mix with the local women at first.
Anyhow, it's an evolving field of study, and one which will assuredly give us much more great information about women's roles in Viking Age Scandinavia in the years to come.

I've always wondered about the validity of the belief that vikings were heavily tattooed.
Did viking culture favor tattoos? What significance did they represent culturally? And how did they tattoo themselves?
The problem with tattoos is that they do not survive very long after death. So, archeologically, we have no evidence for them, nor are there is there any evidence of tools or ink that would have been used. The only reliable account we have for their tattoos is from the Arab chronicler Ibn Fadlan, who described their blue tattoos. Outside of that, the rest is guess work.
Have you ever been to "Vikingar" in Largs up in Scotland? I used to go a lot when I was younger and it really cultivated an interest in Viking history and culture for me.

What did the Vikings call themselves? How unified were they as a people?
Thread | Permalink
The Annales D'Angouleme state that the Vikings who sacked Nantes in 843 A.D. were Vestfaldingi, or Men from Vesfold. This tells us two things: 1, Scandinavians referred to themselves regionally, like Vestfold, and not generally as Norwegians, Danes, or Swedes, although they did refer to themselves as such in some cases; 2, Vikings introduced themselves to their victims before killing them.
As far as being united, they had a common culture and language, but were far from one people politically. They often fought each other, even abroad, based on regional differences.
I have always enjoyed the Legend or the story of the Kensington Runestone. Do you give it any merit? Is there any merit to Norsemen and Western Plains Indians having substantial contact? Thanks for your time.
Thread | Permalink
There really isn't. The Kensington Runestone was definitively proven a fake quite some time ago. Does this mean the Vikings did not travel that far? No. They could have, and they had the skill to do so. But there simply is no evidence to prove it.
The bodies buried in the Osberg and Gokstad ships showed signs of having worn undergarments, but only the important people.
Why made you like Vikings?
Thread | Permalink
I talk about it on my website here.
There is some textual evidence for it, but it is considered unreliable, and so probably not.
have you heard about the discoveries in Ribe, Denmark, that suggests that Viking Denmark were christians far earlyer than we thought?
I have, and I have actually discussed this with others in my field. It seems the evidence points to early christianization, but there is a growing consensus that it may not be what many people are interpreting it as being. In the early 800's, there was a war of succession in Denmark, and one of the rival claimants, Harald-Klak, agreed to be baptized to gain support from the Carolingian empire. This act is widely regarded to have been a political move, and not an actual conversion. Therefore, the artifacts in Ribe may just be more evidence of this trend. It will be interesting to see what comes of the research!
Are there large scale war recreations for medieval battles similar to those done for the civil war? How accurate are they?
Thread | Permalink
The biggest I know of are in Russian, and they're quite good!
Am I imagining things when I see lots of similarities between pre-Christian Irish and Viking art? I'm from Ireland and spend a lot of time in Norway, and it seems like all our properly-ancient stuff is largely interchangeable.
There's a cultural link there that goes back a ways, before the Vikings even. And it's not really my area of expertise, but there is ample literature out there about it.
Is it true that the Vikings ate a lot of fish? What type of salad dressing?
Thread | Permalink
Yes, herring especially. Salted, cured, etc, fish was a major part of their diet, but so was game meant, especially in Norway and Sweden. No salad, as I've ever seen, so no salad dressing either. They ate mostly root-based veggies, like beats, carrots, radishes, etc. A recent study by a university in Finland has demonstrated that it is actually a very healthy diet.
What evidence dictates that vikings were tougher or more fearless warriors then their neighbours?
We know very little about their battle tactics and fighting style. But here is what we do know: they are thought to have been fearless because they were portrayed as such by their victims, chiefly christian clerics (those who could write this stuff down). Therefore, this perception may very well be a result of their biases. Militarily, they were not particularly effective against well-trained and organized armies. This is particularly evident in the early interactions they had with the Carolingians and the Arab Emirate of Al-Andalus (Spain). Their true strength was the sheer speed at which they could appear and disappear again, which struck fear in the hearts of those they attacked. The best example of this is by Noter the Stammerer. Later on, when their ambitions shifted from raiding to colonization, this myth of their invulnerability disappeared as they fought in pitched battles with the armies of Europe with very mixed results.
My expertise as far of this subject goes it what I learned in High school over 20 years ago- so not much.
How much of the travels outside Scandinavia to the British isle were about colonization, and how much of it was a protection racket?
What were the social differences between the folks who stayed at home and herded goats, and the sailors who took off on long voyages and then returned home?
Were the voyages pretty much for the young folks, (then they came home and farmed) or was it one of those life-time career things were you keep going until you dropped (or someone dropped you.)
Did medieval Scandinavians get sick of everyone being named "son of" , "Daughter of" like the modern folks Reference or did the fact that they lived in a more agrarian community help? (identity tied to the farm they lived at)
When doing genealogy (Norway) in the 1800s, my relatives took their names from the farm they lived at.
firstname, son of, farmname.
How far back in the past was this practice used?
EDIT: How far back in the past was the practice of taking military last names go? My assumption that there were WAAAY too may Olesons in one spot, and everyone got confused.
Thread | Permalink
Lots of questions! Ok, so as far as the names are concerned, you should check out The Viking Answer Lady, she's done all manner of work on the subject of names and that should answer your questions in regards to that.
As far as colonization vs raiding, in very general terms the early Viking Age started as raids, and toward the end of the 9th century we see a concerted effort to invade foreign lands, such as Britain, Brittany, Normandy, and the slavic lands in the east. Throughout the Viking age there existed a didactic in which both types of interactions happened at the same time, driven by different groups for different purposes.
Thanks for answering!
The Viking Answer Lady
Cool. Will do.
So the reasons for venturing out really depended upon who was backing them. Various political objectives and drives from different parts of Viking society.
Colonization started when they saw the raids worked well. Sort of: Well, that worked before, lets just stay there next time?
Thread | Permalink
Some colonies were also formed in response to raiding. Normandy, for example, was settled by Danes who were invited there by the French king specifically to fend off other Vikings.
Where did Vikings get their slaves? Also, do you have any theories as to where the 2nd settlement in America was?
Thread | Permalink
Salves were typically taken from the people they conquered. At first, these would have been other Scandinavians, but later it came to include people from all over, including black slaves from North Africa.
Vikings are often portrayed as larger and more physically intimidating than other men of their time. Is there evidence of this, or is it just a result of their portrayal in other texts and the notion that they were somehow more violent than other cultures at the time, or was it something else?
Also, briefly, since I know this would take a long time to really get into, how did religion "work" within their society? Do we have much information about how the "everyday" Viking treated their faith?
The chroniclers who wrote about them were also their victims, so this view that they were bigger, meaner, etc is just an affirmation of their own biases.
How their religion actually worked is actually still mostly a mystery. We have the broad architecture of their pantheon, but texts attesting to their practices are vague. Anskar, a famous bishop who went on missions across Scandinavia, reported human sacrifices in Sweden, and described the ritual. Further east, Ibn Fadlan wrote about their funeral practices. But both are, again, framed within the cultural lens of the chronicler, and so not particularly good evidence for Viking culture and religion. Archeologically, we have lots of artifacts to support which deity one person or settlement followed, but outside of that we really don't have much to go on to describe their rituals.
do you think the kensington runestone found in Minnesota is a 14th century Scandinavian artifact or a 19th century hoax?
Thread | Permalink
It was definitely proven to be a hoax years ago.
I read (unsourced) that the vast majority of Viking activities took place in the east all the way down to Byzantium, or was the British isles and France where most the raiding and settling took place? Was most of the activity settling or raiding and going back?
The Vikings known as the Rus did travel east and established an extensive trade network along the volga and dniepper rivers. They founded the principalities Kiev and Novgorod which would form the nucleus of the future Russian state. It started first as raids, but to secure the trade routes from raids by the Slavs, they began asserting dominion over Slavic lands and establishing fortifications along the way. So trade was the segue to conquering the east.
In the west, it also started as raids, but as politics at home, and indeed populations sizes and food supply, changed, many resorted to exoduses to new lands for survival. This is thought to be the driving factor of the settlement of Ireland, Iceland, and later, America. In England, the Danes who attacked were of a different kind. They were a conquering army with close ties to their home land. So the aims were not colonization, but conquest.
As far as which area, east or west, had more activity, it is hard to say. We know the most about the Danes and their activities because they were the ones the chroniclers of the day documented the most.
I am from a sami family and have always wondered how the relatio between them were, you don't happen to know that? Like, did they trade alot and did they have borders or something?
Thread | Permalink
I don't know much about the Sami, but I do know they were present before the Vikings, and early on there wasn't much interaction between them. That changed later on, but it's not my area of expertise, but I encourage you to research the subject further.

I'm experiencing a bluetooth connectivity problem with all the 4.2.1 versions. From time to time the phone stops accepting BT connection requests from the car handsfree set. Once this starts happening the only way to have it working away is to turn bluetooth off and on in the phone.
I've tried other kernels and I cannot reproduce this issue.
catglog and kmsg seem not to show any relevant info when this happens.
Any suggestions?. What info can I provide?

I was in a mood to make a savoury porridge but chose to use mixed grain instead of the regular rice. It adds more fibre and flavour and I am happy to say that it was well received.
I used this mixed grain that I got from the supermarket. It contains oats, barley and different types of rices.
For this recipe, I didn't have any specific measurement. I just sort of estimate the amount of ingredients I needed. Use your own judgement to add how much of each ingredients you need.
1 pack mixed grain
handful of dried scallops and dried shrimp, washed
a knob of ginger
7 clove garlic
1 small can braised peanut
Enough chicken stock
Some milk
salt & pepper to taste
Spring onion, chopped
Fried shallots
Omelette strips
1. Wash mixed grain and pour into a pot with enough water
2. Blend garlic and ginger into paste and pour them into the pot together with the dried scallops and shrimp
3. Let the mixed grain boil, stir to prevent sticking or burning
4. Add chicken stock and water to get the consistency that you like
5. Once the grains are cooked, add braised peanut and milk, stir and let it simmer for another 10-15mins
6. Turn off and serve hot with garnishes

Apple's press event this morning may have focused on the iPhone, but the company found a little time to talk about minor changes to its iPod lineup, highlighted largely by price cuts for the nano and touch models.
Apple's Phil Schiller talks about the new iPod nano.
"We started the iPod because we loved music, and that hasn't stopped," said Phil Schiller, Apple's senior vice president of worldwide product marketing, as he announced the changes to the iPod nano and touch offerings. "We still love music, and we're still making iPods."
iPod nano
The iPod nano retains the design Apple introduced last spring when it shrunk the music player into a 1.48 x 1.61 x 0.35in design with a Multi-Touch interface. In this year's update, Apple will make the nano's Multi-Touch display easier to navigate by using larger icons. The 1.54in nano screen will now display a single icon at a time; you'll swipe the screen to switch icons.
Schiller also said the company has improved the experience of using the nano for fitness. "Right out of the box, you can go on a walk or a run as well, without adding sensors or devices," he said.
Schiller also mentioned that companies have created watchband cases for the nano so people can wear them on their wrists, and that the latest nano features 16 new clock faces for those people.
The new nano is also a little less expensive than before. The 8GB model costs $149 and the 16GB models costs $169 . Both sizes are available now, and come in seven colours.
iPod touch
Apple also updated the iPod touch today, introducing a white model for the first time, and dropping the price for the low-end model to $219.
The iPod touch costs $199 for the 8GB model (down from $229), $299 for the 32GB model, and $399 for the 64GB model. They will be available, alongside iOS 5, on October 12.
Little else has changed about the iPod touch since Apple released the fourth-generation version of the music player last fall. In fact, Apple seems to be banking that iOS 5 will deliver many new features to the touch when the operating system update arrives on October 12. Apple's iPod touch page touts both iMessage and iCloud, features that iOS 5 will deliver to third- and fourth-generation iPod touches.
Other models
In his presentation Tuesday, Schiller said that the iPod touch is Apple's most popular iPod. Earlier in the presentation, Apple said that it has sold more than 300 million iPods to date.
Still, sales of the music player—which will celebrate its 10th anniversary this month—have fallen off in recent years. In last year's holiday season—typically the quarter which sees the heaviest amount of iPod sales—Apple saw iPod sales drop 7 percent from the previous year, suggesting that as popular as Apple's music player may be, the days of its unfettered growth are long gone.
Those falling sales plus the lack of a dedicated music event this fall had some people speculating that Apple might scale back its iPod lineup, if not kill it entirely. But the modest revamps unveiled Tuesday indicate that Apple still believes there's some demand for its music products.
Even though they weren't addressed during Tuesday's event, both the iPod shuffle and the iPod classic remain a part of the iPod landscape. The shuffle is available as a 2GB device in five colors; it continues to sell for $49. Apple also still offers the iPod classic as a 160GB hard drive-based device for $249.
