Great Workout!This reviewer rated product 5 out of 5 stars.Paz66001 year ago
I bought this online about a month ago. It shipped to my door in 3 days & it took about 2 hours for my husband to assemble. It is everything I hoped for. Although it requires quite a bit of space I was able to get rid of my stationary bike (since this is both a elliptical & a recumbent bike) so that freed up some room. I'm actually thinking of selling my treadmill too. I can get twice the workout in a shorter time on the hybrid! Great buy!
Don't trust the box, iFit is a no goThis reviewer rated product 3 out of 5 stars.ZZTT2 years ago
The machine itself is good, however a big reason I bought this is because they showed the iFit app, and walking along real roads on your tablet. After buying I first find out that iFit is a subscription service, costing $100 a year, without a free trail, secondly the review of the iFit app and terrible, saying most people connect to their device, with people saying it doesn't hook to the ellipticals at all. Why list as a feature if it does not work? The machine itself work fine without iFit. ... You may be able to get it to work, but after reading all the horror stories, I decided it was not worth the $100 a year to see if it MIGHT work.

Gamechanger!This reviewer rated product 4 out of 5 stars.Vanessa2 months ago
This little guy is compact and powerful, providing a great daily low-impact workout that you can knock out quickly and painlessly while watching your favorite show on TV! Great space-saver and health enhancer. Only things I will say is that 1. the left pedal wouldn't align correctly and was rocking back and forth. I had to re-do it a couple times to get it perfectly aligned and stable. Now it's pretty sturdy. 2. the machinery started squeaking after a few runs. Gotta get some WD-40 now!This review was originally posted to staminaproducts.com.
Above expectations!This reviewer rated product 5 out of 5 stars.Bks in austin6 months ago
I recently had a blood clot in my thigh and think it was due to sitting all day. I have ordered a stand up desk at work and wanted to have the elliptical for under desk and standing use. I did extensive research and for the little more in cost I feel I found a much better product. Quiet and smooth! Easy to put together and use.This review was originally posted to staminaproducts.com.

Easy to useThis reviewer rated product 5 out of 5 stars.Vw1233 years ago
I was originally looking for an elliptical and then came across this compact strider. This is perfect for rooms with limited space. It is convenient and easy to use. Works smoothly under the desk so far. Great for watching TV or studying. Using the arm resistance bands following the video actually can raise my heart rate quite a bit and break a few sweat. This is no substitute for real excercise or real size elliptical but it does get me moving rather then sitting for hours.This review was originally posted to staminaproducts.com.
I love this little machine!This reviewer rated product 5 out of 5 stars.slegg4 months ago
I bought this machine in 2017 to use under my desk at work since I do not get much activity throughout the day. It has been wonderful to get activity and I contribute some of my weight loss to this little machine. It was also great for getting strength and mobility back after my grandfather's knee replacement surgery. Easy to use, easy to assemble and great construction.This review was originally posted to staminaproducts.com.

Very pleasedThis reviewer rated product 5 out of 5 stars.Heather14752 years ago
I've owned this Schwinn 430 for about 2-3 weeks now, after owning a cheaper elliptical that gave me so many problems. I have to say this machine is well worth the extra money, extremely similar quality to a machine you'd find at a gym and under $1000. The resistance is very good, I will use a middle level at the machine at gym, but only use the easiest level on this machine. Also, so far it is QUIET and smooth. Yay! It is very sturdy, fan works well...I have no complaints. You won't ... regret spending a few extra $ for this machine.
Worth it!This reviewer rated product 5 out of 5 stars.JessieM2 years ago
Purchased yesterday & put it together today. Instructions were easy to read and it came with a thank you note from the manufacturer. Also came with a tech support number encouraging people to call the number if there's a problem with the product. Used the machine for the first time today and it worked great! Smooth and quiet with various settings. The best part is I can plug my phone in to the machine and listen to music or watch a movie if I wanted to! It has 2 user profiles and goal settings. ... Very happy with the quality of the product!

Awesome Machine!This reviewer rated product 5 out of 5 stars.Jamie8324 years ago
Had this machine for about a week. I'm 5'7 and love every bit of this machine. It does exactly what it needs for me to get a good workout. It does not come with a water bottle holder which I don't mind at all. Assembly was not hard at all. Had my hubby to help me and took us bout 45 minutes. Note on assembly: do not remove the ties on the electrical cord for it is used to pull that cord up the neck bar to connect to the monitor. Love love love this machine for the price. Can't beat it!
Great fitThis reviewer rated product 4 out of 5 stars.YM205 years ago
I don't really write reviews but when I bought this one I noticed there wasn't one so I though I would help. This was a great fit for us even though there were specials on price. I'm 6'0" and my wife is 5'6". We both think the 16" is great. Small foot print on your floor space to comparable units. Relatively easy to put together and no issues yet. Wish it had a cup holder but programmed workouts are pretty standard and heart rate monitor seems accurate. Hope this helps.

Ok productThis reviewer rated product 3 out of 5 stars.Cara6 months ago
I spent an hour in Acadamy picking a it the best machine for me. It was priced GREAT, easy to put together and had lots of work out choices. I REALLY liked it. Unfortunately, after 2 weeks the electronic device that has had all the workouts & controls the tension level stopped working. I called the manufacturer EVERY DAY for another 2 weeks to get a replacement because I really liked the machine but no one ever answered and no one ever returned one of my 18 messages so I returned it to Acadamy.

Very Durable Training EquipmentThis reviewer rated product 5 out of 5 stars.bobinalong1 year ago
I've had this about a month and am working up to using it more frequently and longer but I feel its' benefits every time I use it. The equipment is very well made and strong. I would suggest you get a little help during assembly since it a bit heavy and awkward to assemble for older folks. All in all... a great piece of equipment to exercise and to help improve my flexibility... very important as we age.

ReviewThis reviewer rated product 4 out of 5 stars.Elliott6 months ago
I find nothing wrong with this machine. It's compact, price is great and seems to be made better than some of the more expensive one's. It's basic but that's all I need and it gets the job done. The person who said it sways, I don't find that to be true for me. It's great for what I need. As far as how long it will last, time will tell. I would recommend this product if you are looking for a basic trainer at a good price.
Just GreatThis reviewer rated product 5 out of 5 stars.Akera5045 months ago
I'm 6'2 and I brought the 2 in 1 bike for extra exercise while I'm trying to loose weight from getting two steroid injections. The bike works wonders. It really burns in the areas they are supposed to. The only complaint I have is that the seat is really uncomfortable but other than that it's a winner. This bike is not made for short people.

Great customer service and products choices.This reviewer rated product 5 out of 5 stars.Marc Z2 years ago
I ordered this item at an academy store. The clerk placed the order for me and even credit back the shipping charge. Great customer service for sure. For the price, the air walker is pretty sturdy and very quiet. The other great advantage is that it is foldable and movable. I only wished it had resistant knobs, but only the elliptical with a wheel can have that from my research. Disadvantage will be that it won't be foldable and rather heavy to move. We are happy with our purchase.

I purchased the Gazelle Edge a little more that 2 weeks ago, and I am so glad that I did! It was so easy to assemble and even easier to use! I especially love the exercise video that was included with my purchase. It gives me a thoroughly low-impact workout in about 30 minutes, which fits perfectly into my busy schedule! I highly recommend this glider!

I bought this close the the first of February 2017 and although it's non-jarring to joints don't be fooled, it does give a good workout that can be can varied. Since it is a piece of exercise equipment that you will be going at different paces I do recommend an equipment mat underneath it to keep it from 'walking' around the room. Great purchase that didn't break the bank!

I bought my elliptical a month ago and I'm happy with it this far. It is a basic machine but gets the job done. Looks good and doesn't take up a ton of space either. I would recommend this to others looking for a simple elliptical that doesn't cost an arm and a leg.

Today we are announcing the launch of the Kickstarter for Tridek: Creatures of Galena, a digital trading card game currently being developed for PC and mobile devices with cross-platform play capabilities. With the goal of expanding to other platforms and languages, as well as incorporating new tournament play modes, developer Bit Barons plans to offer multiplayer action, fully customizable decks and a new resource system optimized for fast, strategic gameplay. The 30 day Kickstarter campaign begins today with the team looking to raise a minimum of $55,000 to help make Tridek: Creatures of Galena a reality. Supporters of the project can get involved by pledging as little as $5 at:
"Tridek: Creatures of Galena is a free to play competitive sport, already in early beta testing", said Andreas Mihalovits, Managing Director at dreamfab. "Our goal for this Kickstarter is to give the game that additional push financially that will allow us to complete development for iOS, PC and Android and implement cross-platform play as well as multiplayer tournament capabilities".
Tridek Creatures of Galena is a Digital Trading Card (DTC) game developed for multiple platforms and online gameplay. This gives gamers the ability to experience true cross-platform multiplayer matches and tournaments anywhere they are! Additionally, unlike many other games on the market, Tridek evolves the traditional gaming experience of a Trading Card Game by innovating and enhancing the core features players expect in a card game. Plus, Tridek introduces a new resource system that removes the typical waiting times found in Trading Card Games without compromising the strategic depth. Gamers can play using their individual style by building decks to fit their own needs and objectives.

"Golden Hope" Mini-Sessions for Childhood Cancer Awareness, San Diego, CA
If you've been following along here on my Blog (or Facebook page) for a while, chances are you'll already know about the childhood cancer campaign I ran back in September, for Childhood Cancer Awareness Month, which raised $400 for local pediatric cancer charity Friends of Scott Foundation, and granted one lucky childhood warrior and her family a full, customized photoshoot by yours truly! (Click here to catch up or revisit that incredible session!)
As you may recall, in a super fun LIVE video I not only announced the grand prize winner, but also got to live out my own "Oprah fantasies" and let everyone know that they were ALL going to receive their own mini-sessions! They were ALL winners!! This was thanks to my dear sweet friend Olguta of Oh My Goddard Photography...she came up with the idea for a mini-session event because EACH and EVERY child battling this dreadful disease deserves his/her time in the spotlight!
Our initial date actually got rained out, and we had some trouble finding a new date that worked for everyone so we ended up shooting the following 8 families over two separate dates in the last couple months. When you look at each little warrior's face, it's impossible not to fall in love with their strength and grace, and sparkling little eyes. These kids ALL have had to endure unimaginable pain (and their parents/families unspeakable heartache) on the roller coasters that have been their journeys. Some of these kids have finished their treatment and are are enjoying their lives cancer-free, in a new post-cancer "normal", while others are in the thick of it right now, and still others are in "maintenance mode"; enduring nightly chemo pills, crazy steroids, and monthly hospital stays while counting down the hundreds of days until they can (hopefully) put this all behind them. But they all have one thing in common - these kids are true heroes. Olguta and I were stunned at how mature, well mannered, and full of joy and love each of these little warriors is! And grateful - amidst it all they find so many things to be grateful for! Like each and every moment they have together. Olguta and I are both so incredibly honored to have been able to capture these special memories for these guys....
And finally a little collage from our grand prize winner (you can click here to see more from their session including an amazing video Olguta put together!)

Bless your heart, these photos are beautiful! What a wonderful gift you've given these families. I had to watch my poor husband fight cancer. I'm not sure I could hold myself together knowing how much those little souls have had to go through.

Photography for you, of you and all about you!
When I meet with people, all sorts of people anywhere and everywhere, I really like to hear their story. Getting to know about someone else's journey in life is one of the things that makes it wonderful. Being able to create photography that inspires people is great, but getting them involved too is even better; that is how the stories are created.
Everyone ever always initially says that they hate having their photograph taken. To be honest, so do I, but I've been changing all that. I get my own photograph taken to learn how it feels from your point of view. I make the whole experience enjoyable for you, you will feel fantastic about having your photo taken and want more. This happens on every photo shoot because I am interested in YOU! First we sit and have cuppa and get to know each other a bit. The photography starts gradually and you will soon be loving it and go away feeling amazing. Really you will!
I really LOVE to create photography with people and make it all about them. I started Sainte Croix photography to do just that, to help people become the person they want to be. This could be you doing what you do best with your family and loved ones for some stunning natural lifestyle photography for you to be proud of. Or it could be just photography to show your natural beauty or depicting your stories and dreams. Perhaps that could be something quirky, maybe a fashion model for the day or a Hollywood star in the 50's. I am open to ideas and concepts though personally I just love to create beautifully natural location portraiture. You will notice from my portrait galleries that the genres span a wide range to tell all different kinds of stories: fashion shoots in foreign lands, lifestyle family portraiture, a day in the life with children, commercial editorial portraiture and even fictional stories of times past.
Photography on location is what I love doing the most. Images of you in a natural environment, somewhere you love or even your home add so much interest and individuality to your photography. As you will notice from the portraiture presented throughout my website I like to find a good scene which can be a big part of the story, bringing out more character. The location can be decided to suit what meets your requirements though if you only have a vague idea that is great too as I have loads locations in mind and always find many more, indoor and out. It is really all about reading and using the light effectively so leave that bit to me; lets tell your story and create photographs you can be proud of.
About me as a Photographer
I am Adam de-Ste-Croix, an award winning freelance photographer running Sainte Croix photography full time. I am very proud to say I am a member of two professional bodies for photography. The Guild of photographers, an organisation which holds up the highest professionalism in the industry whilst cultivating creative inspirations and passions. I am also an award winning member of the Society of Wedding and Portrait photographers and the Society of International Travel and Tourism photographers. My business is registered and insured. I admire quality service and products and so only provide the same. I use only the best suppliers in the UK for all your products, prints, albums, framing services and wall art.
You may be just like me and not keen on pushy sales people. To make life easier all round my portraiture work is based on time and all my prices are available to booking customers. Generally most shoots can be done in 2-3 hours and so the starting point is 2 hours of photography for £200. This includes all the planning and research work to ensure we are ready for your shoot. When your portrait session is complete your photos are presented in a gallery so you can easily make a choice and pick a format in which to present them on your wall. Prior to your portrait session the prices of all print and wall art options are available to you. There are packages of the most popular selections available which offer you a greater value too.
This is very simple, just come and say hi! We can have a chat about your requirements and plan in a date and time to suit you. The links below offer various means of contact or you can just call for a chat if it is easier for you. I am also always happy to meet for a cuppa and cake so we can talk about your needs in person :)
Look forward to meeting you soon.

May 24, 2017 12:50 ET
VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwired - May 24, 2017) -
K92 Mining Inc. (TSX VENTURE:KNT)(OTCQB:KNTNF) ("K92" or the "Company") is pleased to announce the first exploration hole drilled in a program designed to test for extensions of the Kora Deposit has intersected high grade gold mineralization.
The intersection is approximately 500 metres along strike and 150 metres down dip from the closest point of the currently defined Kora Deposit Inferred Resource (see Table 3 and Figure 1).
This intersection, recording 5.4 metres @ 11.68 g/t Au, 25.5 g/t Ag and 1.33% Cu and a gold equivalent grade of 14.1 g/t AuEq is typical of the Kora/Eutompi mineralisation. The current Kora/Eutompi Inferred Resource is 4.36 million tonnes at a grade of 7.3 g/t Au, 35 g/t Ag and 2.23% Cu or 11.2 g/t AuEq (see Table 3).
The diamond drill hole, KMDD0009, intersected what the Company interprets as the Kora/Eutompi Vein System 154.1 metres down hole or approximately 130 metres from the Kora drive. Given the results from this hole, the company is now accelerating exploration drilling and has 9 holes planned from the initial drill cuddy, targeting an area of approximately 200 metres along strike by 200 metres on dip.
The interpreted strike length of the Kora/Eutompi Vein System is approximately 1,100 metres at surface, but potentially based on limited drill testing to date, this reduces at depths greater than 200 metres to 500 metres strike length, although it is open for expansion both at depth and along strike in both directions. The deepest intersection in hole BKDD0023 is 900 metres below the surface outcrop of the Vein System and almost 500 metres below the deepest Inferred Resource (see Figure 1). The KMDD0009 intersection is approximately 700 metres below the surface and 500 metres along strike from BKDD0023.
The Kora 5m x 5m drive is designed to provide access to the Kora deposit, where K92 is assessing the commencement of production in First Half 2018, while also providing the Company with the ability to drill test between Irumafimpa and Kora from underground drill cuddies. This area has not been previously tested due to topographical challenges associated with drilling from the surface and is considered highly prospective given the current interpretation of Irumafimpa and Kora being on the same structure.
K92 Chief Executive Officer, Ian Stalker, states, "The results from the first hole drilled by K92 on the Kora Vein System and first drilled from underground can only be described as outstanding. Based on the interpretation of our geological team we have an intersection of 5.4 metres at 14.1 g/t AuEq from some 500 metres along strike and 150 metres down dip from the known Kora Inferred Resource. The implication is that there is potential for this high grade Kora Deposit to become much larger. With today's results in hand, we will push the Kora drive at an increased pace and with an expanded drilling program."
In addition to drilling between the Irumafimpa and Kora deposits, K92 will also be drilling down dip from the known resource to infill between the known resource and the single deepest known hole drilled on the deposit BKDD0023, which was drilled by Barrick Gold Corporation. This hole recorded an intersection of 30.6 metres @ 2.0 g/t Au, 4.8 g/t Ag and 1.3% CU, including 6.4 metres @ 5.52 g. /t Au and 8M @ 3.7% Cu from 920.8 metres, approximately 500 metres below the current resource.
Consideration will be given to extending the drive beyond the Mining Lease 150 into the adjacent Exploration Lease (EL 693) which is also held by K92, to allow exploration drilling to be undertaken to potentially extend the known limit of mineralization to the South.
K92 has filed and made available for download on the Company's SEDAR profile, a technical report titled "Independent Technical Report, Mineral Resource Update and Preliminary Economic Assessment ("PEA") of Irumafimpa and Kora Gold Deposits, Kainantu Project, Papua New Guinea" with an effective date of March 2, 2017 (the "Technical Report").
The PEA estimates for Kora, based on the current resource estimates (4.36 million tonnes of 7.3 g/t Au, 35 g/t Ag and 2.23% Cu);
Metal prices used were Au - $1300; Ag - US $18/oz; Cu - US $4800/tonne
*AuEq calculated on above metal prices
Kora remains open for expansion in every direction and strongly mineralized at the extent of all drilling.
The PEA is preliminary in nature and includes inferred mineral resources that are considered too speculative geologically to have the economic considerations applied to them that would enable them to be categorized as mineral reserves, and there is no certainty that the PEA will be realized. The Technical Report contains a full description of all underlying assumptions relating to the PEA. Mineral Resources that are not Mineral Reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability.

Four counties support the petition. Does yours?
On August 15, over 30 Iowans attended the Environmental Protection Commission (EPC) meeting, urging the Department of Natural Resources (DNR) to grant a formal rulemaking petition submitted last month by Iowa Citizens for Community Improvement and Food & Water Watch to strengthen the master matrix, and deny proposed factory farms until the application process is improved. The DNR is currently reviewing the petition and has until September 16 to either grant or deny it.
So far, four county boards of supervisors have sent the DNR Letters of Support for the petition: Butler, Dickinson, Polk, and Johnson counties. This is in addition to fourteen counties that have already passed separate resolutions or sent letters calling on the DNR to strengthen the master matrix and/or suspend the construction of new/expanding factory farms.
>>>> Take action! Call your county supervisors and ask them to send DNR a Letter of Support for our petition. Find contact information for your supervisors here.
"Does the Iowa farmer actually feed the world? And if they're actually feeding the world, are they poisoning it, too, with the chemicals they put on the ground and the antibiotics they put in the feed?" said James Berge, CCI member and landowner in Kensett. "We need you to take a step in the right direction by strengthening the Master Matrix."
Created fifteen years ago by the legislature, the master matrix has failed to live up to the promise of giving communities a greater voice in the siting of factory farms and protections from the pollution they create. It has proven so easy to pass that it has amounted to little more than a rubber stamp: Applicants only need to satisfy enough of the listed criteria to obtain 50 percent of the available points – an "F" by most standards. DNR records show that only 2.2 percent of applications have been denied.
"I've been drinking poisoned water, and I don't know for how long," said Janis Elliot, CCI member from Avon, who discovered last week that her drinking water is contaminated with nitrates at 19 parts per million (ppm) – 9 ppm over the EPA's safe drinking water standard. "Our legislature isn't protecting us, and you're the Environmental Protection Commission. I don't feel like you're protecting me, and I don't know what to do."
Citizens from Worth County also attended the EPC meeting to ask the DNR to deny an influx of seven new factory farms in their community.
"Worth County is the jewel and the crown of Iowa and we don't have many CAFOs. We're going to do everything we can to keep it that way," said Edith Haenel, CCI member from Northwood who lives one mile from a proposed factory farm and has epilepsy that is triggered by air pollutants emitted by factory farms. "Your job is to protect Iowans – not moneyed interests."
The petition proposals include:
- A higher minimum passing score, requiring applicants to earn more of the possible points to obtain a permit.
- A one-time enrollment for counties, rather than the current burdensome requirement for counties to readopt the master matrix every year.
- Revisions to the point structure to incentivize practices that prevent or mitigate pollution.
- New criteria that consider factors currently unaddressed by the matrix, such as karst topography, existing water pollution impairments, and water quality monitoring.
- Elimination of criteria that do not provide meaningful environmental or community benefits.
- Changes to strengthen existing criteria, such as increased separation distances from schools, homes, public use areas, waterways, and wells.
Iowa has over 10,000 factory farms, and more than 3,000 of these are large enough to be subject to the matrix by counties that adopt it. These factory farms produce 22 billion gallons of manure each year, and its disposal has widespread impacts on Iowa's waterways and communities. The state's latest impaired waters list shows that 750 waterbodies – over half of those tested – are impaired. The majority of these impairments are caused by E. coli bacteria and other pollutants associated with manure. Given the statehouse's ongoing failure to address Iowa's water quality crisis, DNR must do the next best thing and use its existing authority to strengthen the master matrix.
>>> Call your county supervisors today and ask them to support the petition to strengthen the Master Matrix! Find contact information for your supervisors here.

In particular, we use activemq::cmsutil::SessionPool and activemq::cmsutil::PooledSession. Methods createCachedProducer and createCachedConsumer of class PooledSession do not synchronize access to their shared ResourceLifecycleManager, and ResourceLifecycleManager itself is not thread-safe. Therefore, it is not safe to use pooled session from multiple threads, even if we guarantee that each PooledSession is used from one thread at any given time. To resolve this issue, ResourceLifecycleManager needs to be thread-safe, i.e. we need to add synchronization to all of its add* methods. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.

Look for an accommodation close to this path!
Godafoss clearly means "waterfall of Gods". According to the legend, Thorgeir threw in the water the statues of the old local godness at the time of his conversion to Christianity.
Someone says that the name Godafoss was already used by locals as the three main water flows in the falls recall three important elements of the Nordic Mithology (Odino, Thor, Freyr).
Apart from legends, the size of Godafoss makes it quite an ordinary waterfall, just 12 meters high and 30 meters wide. The basaltic context is probabile more interesting than the fall itself.
Leave the car at the parking area and walk to the waterfall. A panoramic picture, a closup one and you could even leave this area.
We suggest you to come back on the small path along the river so that you can look at some interesting details:
- Basalt archway (pay attention, it will collapse sooner or later)
- A secondary water jump
- Some caves digged by the river.

I finished up the silk sweater on Saturday. Washed, blocked, and wore it on Sunday. I have a picture, and will post it later. I wasn't happy with it on wearing; it 'grew' too much. I figured a little distance might help; maybe I was being too picky. After all, silk does tend to stretch, and I knew that when I planned the project. So I washed the sweater and put it away for awhile, to give myself a little distance. Then everyone at work asked me yesterday if I'd finished, and when was I going to wear it? So I put on the sweater this morning over a black silk turtleneck and black slacks to show off the wonderful colors.
It's growing again! According to the gauge, this sweater should fit with about 4 inches of ease. It should also end just at the bottom of my hips. But after wearing it for 4 hours, the hem is three inches above my knees, the neckband is creeping toward my shoulder line, and the sleeves, instead of being just below the elbow, are three inches above my wrist! Oversized is one thing, but this is ridiculous. My gauge on the sample was 5 stitches and 6 rows per inch – I just measured the gauge now, and its 3 stitches and 4 rows per inch!
What on earth can I do? Should I give this away and start over with spinning more of the fiber, or unravel the entire thing and start over, either on needles two sizes smaller, or with fewer stitches? I still love the yarn, but this sweater is a nightmare. Maybe knitting from the top down will help? At least then I can hang it up overnight while knitting and keep an eye on the "growth factor" in that way. Any advice, anyone?

Sword and Bored: Trade
The boss has been killed and the loot has been ninja'd, so what is a pickup group to do now? Split up, of course.
It's funny how fast PUGs break apart after the boss is killed. But sometimes if you stick around for just a bit after downing the big bad, you can make some really good friends.
This marks the end of the latest story arc for Sword and Bored, I hope you've enjoyed it so far. We have had a lot of fun making them. And we hope that Mo's adventures keep going for a long time. Now, on to this week's comic…

BarrelHouse Visalia opend Saturday, bringing something different to Main Street with its popular beer, Valley roots and remodeled 1923 Buick dealership.
The taproom by Paso Robles-based BarrelHouse Brewing Co. is located at 521 E. Main St.
It's the first beer-related business to open in Visalia's new brewery district on the edge of downtown.
Twenty beers are on tap, including some Visalia-specific brews – more on that in a moment. The taproom sells glasses of beer, six-packs, "bombers" that hold 22 ounces and growler fills.
The taproom has two stages, a huge patio, space for regular food trucks and caterers. Some seating faces Main Street, with large firehouse-style doors that open up when the weather is nice.
"In front on Main, the whole front of the building opens up to the street to give it an open-air feel," says Jason Carvalho, who owns BarrelHouse with Kevin Nickell.
With indoor and outdoor stages, BarrelHouse Visalia plans to host bands on Fridays and Saturdays and small bands or acoustic performances on Thursdays and Sundays.
The taproom doesn't make its own food, but hopes to host food vendors seven days a week, including restaurants that already carry their beer. The taproom's website has a calendar of food sellers, with places like Lumpia Hut, Pita Kabob and The Chicken Shack already scheduled.
"There's also a bunch of awesome restaurants around and across the street," Carvalho said. "You can order a pizza and deliver it there. If you want to get sandwiches and bring them, bring them."
BarrelHouse Visalia is open from 2 p.m. to 9 p.m. Mondays through Wednesdays, 2 p.m. to 10 p.m. Thursdays and Fridays, 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. Saturdays and 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. Sundays.
In addition to its best-selling beers, Sunny Daze citrus blonde ale and its mango IPA, the taproom will debut its Visalia Barbera sour beer. It's made with barbera grapes from a Visalia farm.
BarrelHouse's owners grew up in Lemoore and also own Carvalho Construction in Hanford. They designed or did much of the work themselves, including the chairs and the shuffleboard tables.
"It's unlike anything else that they have in downtown Visalia right now," Carvalho said. "It's got character and energy and it's just a beautiful building."
Of course, it's not the only brewery in Visalia. Craft beer fans from around the Valley and the state will likely hit up BarrelHouse Visalia along with Brewbakers Brewing Co., Rocky Hill Brewing in Exeter, Kaweah Brewing Co. in Tulare, or possibly Bird Street Brewing in Lemoore or Sanger's House of Pendragon Brewing Co.

South American star Furia Cruzada (16/1 with Coral) features among 27 entries for the £100,000 Group Three Coral Winter Derby at Lingfield Park on Saturday, February 27.
The 10-furlong contest on Polytrack is a Fast-Track Qualifier for the £200,000 Coral Easter Classic at Lingfield Park on All-Weather Championships Finals Day, Good Friday, March 25.
The five-year-old Chilean-bred mare, now based in Newmarket with champion Flat trainer John Gosden, was last seen out on May 1 when capturing a 10-furlong Group One contest on dirt at Palermo Racecourse, Argentina. She proved her versatility when comfortably landing another Group One event, this time on turf, over 11 furlongs at Palermo the previous month. Furia Cruzada started racing in her native Chile where she won at Group One and Group Two level.
Gosden, seeking a first victory in the Coral Winter Derby, has also entered Group Three Huxley Stakes victor Maverick Wave (20/1) and Tempus Temporis (33/1), runner-up in the 32Red All-Weather Three-Year-Old Mile on Good Friday last year.
Sloane Avenue (7/1, Jeremy Noseda) is another with high-class contender with international form, having gone down by a short-head to Tamarkuz in the Group Two Godolphin Mile at Meydan, Dubai, in March, 2015.
Godolphin trainer Charlie Appleby sent out Tryster to win both the Coral Winter Derby and Coral Easter Classic during last year's All-Weather Championships and could attempt to repeat the feat with Festive Fare (4/1 favourite). The four-year-old is unbeaten in three outings on the All-Weather and comfortably saw off Charles Camoin (40/1, Sylvester Kirk) in a valuable nine and a half furlong handicap at Wolverhampton last time out.
All-Weather specialists in contention include Grendisar (pictured above)(7/1, Marco Botti), runner-up last year, Fire Fighting (16/1, Mark Johnston), who captured a pair of Listed prizes on the All-Weather at the backend of last year, and Complicit (14/1, Paul Cole).
Complicit has a 50 per cent strike on the All-Weather from 10 starts and was one of the leading performers of the 2014/15 All-Weather Championships, with the pick of his efforts coming when second to Tryster in the Coral Easter Classic on Good Friday.
The five-year-old carried that form through to the turf season, finishing runner-up in a mile Listed race at Windsor in May and third to Arod in the Group Three Diomed Stakes at Epsom Downs in June.
After two slightly below par efforts in France, he had a break and returned earlier this month to finish third to in-form filly Lamar (12/1, James Tate) in a mile conditions race at Lingfield Park.
Oliver Cole, assistant to his Wantage-based father Paul, said: "Complicit is in good shape. Going into his last race, we thought we had him about 85 per cent fit and he has definitely come on for that at home.
"He is going to run in the coral.co.uk Winter Derby Trial a week on Saturday and we expect him to be spot on. He is working very well and has definitely improved a few lengths.
"We had him gelded before his last run because he can be a bit free in his races. It seems to have helped because he switched off well last time.
"Horses can go over the top. He had a long campaign last year and regressed, so we decided to give him a month off and we are expecting him to get back to where he was."
Energia Davos (16/1, Jane Chapple-Hyam), a Group Three scorer on turf at Newmarket in October, is another with good form on the All-Weather, as are course and distance Listed scorer Battalion (8/1, William Haggas) and 2014 Ladbrokes Mile hero Captain Cat (pictured below)(16/1, Roger Charlton).
Other eye-catching entries include Tullius (10/1, Andrew Balding), winner of the Group Two York Stakes over 10 furlongs on turf in July, the highly-regarded Moheet (16/1, Richard Hannon), recent Chelmsford City scorer Our Channel (14/1, William Haggas) and German challenger Pistolero (40/1), trained by Michael Figge.
The scratchings deadline is at noon on Tuesday, February 9. A maximum of 14 runners can take part in the Coral Winter Derby.
Coral Winter Derby, Coral bet:
4/1 Festive Fare, 7/1 Grendisar, Sloane Avenue, 8/1 Battalion, 10/1 Tullius, 12/1 Lamar, 14/1 Complicit, Our Channel, 16/1 Captain Cat, Energia Davos, Fire Fighting, Furia Cruzada, Moheet, 20/1 Calling Out, Maverick Wave, 25/1 Franklin D, Man of Harlech, Watersmeet, 33/1 Bravo Zolo, Tempus Temporis, 40/1 Charles Camoin, Forceful Appeal, Pistolero, 50/1 Battle of Marathon, Sirius Prospect, Si Senor, 66/1 Brocklebank.

Actress/singer Victoria Justice has reportedly split from her actor boyfriend Pierson Fode.
The former Victorious star and Fode separated earlier this year (15) after more than two years of dating.
"They are hoping to work things out and still care for each other a lot," a source close to the former couple tells JustJared.com.
Justice, who met Fode in 2013 while filming drama Naomi and Ely's No Kiss List, was spotted at The Bold and the Beautiful actor's 25th birthday party in Los Angeles earlier this month (Nov15).
Last year (14), Justice discussed the difficulties of keeping up a long-distance relationship with Fode, saying, "It's important to find ways to stay connected - even just playing Words With Friends and Skyping when you can. When you're young, not every relationship is going to work out. You're going to go through breakups, and you're probably going to have your heart broken... All relationships are a learning curve."

Long, long ago, in a land far away, some of our ancestral barbershoppers set out looking for new lands to which they could bring four-part harmony. Dressed in the furs of native animals such as leopard and zebra, they set forth into the unkown.
Along the way, they saw many strange and wonderous things. A merman was one the first sightings. The very sight of him was amazing but the wonderment only increased when it was discovered that he sang baritone.
But their wonder grew even more when they passed an accordion powered aquatic vehicle. The proud master of this accordion-powered nautical miracle proved to be...another baritone.
Following the accordion powered craft to its home port, they discovered others of the same tribe who had gathered to sing in glorious four-part harmony. This was later to be called barbershop (after barbershops came in to being).
Time would pass and the populace of the new land would expand westward where they would begin to wear sillly hats and funny pants, and to ride on four legged animals (with deflated heads) But they too were to sing in that strange but wonderful four-part harmony.
The native costumes were to change but the harmony was to persist.
.. and persist until...
...it had spread throughout the land. It could heard in banquet halls, bar rooms, and bawdy houses (so I am told) across the new nation and even in some countries yet to be discovered for the next 500 years,
And what of our intrepid explorers? Although they couldn't possibly have known how great an influence they were to have, they felt they had done their best.. besides the Legion Bar was nearing opening time so they set sail, rather they turned their paddles, and headed for home.
History as told to me by a baritone, so it has to be true.

Breakfast Tacos
September 14, 2015
Mexican food has definitely had a bit of a comeback in London's foodie scene recently. No longer does it mean refried beans out of a can, Old el Paso kits or nacho cheese that isn't really cheese… (should food really be that luminescent orange colour?!) In the last few years, led by the Chipotle craze, … More Breakfast Tacos
