Hello all and welcome to the inaugural issue of Chaos Dwarf Online's "The Word of Hashut", our very own, quarterly webzine focusing on all aspects of the hobby as it relates to Chaos Dwarfs. If you feel as I do that Chaos Dwarf Online is one of the best (if not the best) Warhammer site on the web today, then this is just another expression of that fact. However, his webzine will not go very far if it is not populated with great articles, awesome artwork, and other contributions from you ,the members of CDO. So get busy and start sending in those submissions! So what is needed from you? The stuff mentioned above of course. I will caution everyone thou: Don't try to write a 90 page thesis on the importance of beards to chaos dwarf society for instance. Start small, focus on small manageable chunks, say a 1 page 3 paragraph article, a small piece of artwork, a blurb of text, s ahort story, a really well photographed mini, etc.. Small steps is what I'm preaching for the first few issues and lets see where it takes us. Bear in mind too, that not everything that gets submitted will make it in to the first issue, never fear there are two more planned for the remainder of the year: Summer and Fall 2008. Its also important to understand the editorial process. Articles rarely if ever appear exactly the way they are submitted. Editing will be needed in some cases and perhaps rewrites. Don't take it personally, it happens. We may ask for you to rework passages in the text, so keep an open mind. Next on a personal note, don't take me to be a harsh task master on this project, I'm not nor am I one in real life. Its important to understand that in order to meet the deadlines of producing this thing in the timeframes allotted, strict deadlines will need to be adhered to. If you are going to do something and say you are, then do it. No excuses. We're all busy, we all have other commitments in life so think long and hard before you agree to do it. With that being said I'm not trying to scare anyone just asking for focus and diligence. We're not asking for much. It speaks to Xander's Month in Review from March: take charge of your website, make it better, contribute where and when you can. In closing I hope you enjoy this issue and the ones to follow, its for all of us to enjoy. As always if you have any questions PM me. I usually reply within hours if not minutes. Till next quarter, glory to Hashut and CDO!

Issue 1- The Word of Hashut– 5
The Black Dwarfs Few scholars know how exactly these Dwarfs came to be the evil and twisted creatures of Chaos they are now. A long and slow warping process has changed them forever. Sundered from others of their kind, trapped in underground holds on the ash-choked Plain of Zharr, darkness swept over them. From a worship born out of desperation, the bull-shaped god Hashut became their saviour and the Dwarfs of Karak Vlag became a perverted mockery of their former selves. Through infernal pacts with their mysterious daemon deity this bitter race has endured and gained an unnatural mastery of foul magic. They practice bloodthirsty rites which involve throwing captives into burning cauldrons of molten metal.
Hired Swords: A Chaos Dwarf warband may hire the following Hired Swords: Ogre Bodyguard, Pit Fighter, Warlock, Imperial Assassin, and Hobgoblin Scout. They may hire any Hired Sword described as all may hire, or allowed by Orc warbands and Chaos warbands. They may never hire Elves of any sort!
The Black Dwarfs constantly trade armour, weapons and machines forged out of precious metals with their hammers and vile sorcery, for fresh supplies and victims. Those condemned souls are brought back to the Dark Lands. Deep beneath the the ziggurat shaped obsidian tower they are sentenced to toil in the labour pits of Mingol Zharr-Naggrund, the City of Fire and Desolation.
Gaolers: Your warband may include up to two Gaolers.
Fell Sorcerer Priests mastermind tactical raids harvesting prisoners on the Silver Road to expand their labour force. Scouting for rich mineral veins and metal ores while scouring the land for wyrdstone deposits, has led detachments of the Children of Darkness to Mordheim.
Choice of warriors A Chaos Dwarf warband must include a minimum of three models. You have 500 gold crowns which you can use to recruit and equip your warband. The maximum number of warriors in the warband is 12. Sorcerer: Each Chaos Dwarf warband must have one Sorcerer – no more, no less! Bull Centaur: Your warband may include one Bull Centaur.
Chaos Dwarfs: Your warband may include up to five Chaos Dwarfs. Informers: Your warband may include any number of Informers.
Starting experience A Sorceror starts with 20 Experience. A Bull Centaur starts with 10 Experience. Gaolers start with 8 Experience. Henchmen start with 0 Experience.
Special rules
Characteristic increase
Hard to Kill: Like their uncorrupted brethren, Chaos Dwarfs are tough, resilient individuals who can only be taken out of action on a roll of 6 instead of 5-6 when rolling on the Injury chart. Treat a roll of 1-2 as knocked down, 3-5 as stunned, and 6 as out of action.
Characteristics for warriors may not be increased beyond the maximum limits shown on the following profiles. Informers are a mixture of races, half-breeds, and mutants. They use the maximum characteristics for humans from the Mordheim rulebook.
Hard Head: Chaos Dwarfs ignore the special rules for clubs, maces, etc. They too are not easy to knock out!

Armour: Chaos Dwarfs never penalties for wearing armour.

Chaos Dwarf special skills Chaos Dwarfs may choose to use the following skill list instead of the standard skill lists.
extra tough A Chaos Dwarf with this skill is notorious for walking away from wounds that would kill a lesser warrior. When rolling on the Heroes Serious Injury chart for this Hero after a game in which he has been taken out of action, the dice may be re-rolled once. The result of this second dice roll must be accepted, even if it is a worse result.
chaos engineer The Hero has great technical skill and can use this to craft wicked armours. Whenever a Hero with this skill searches for Chaos armour (including Mechanical Suit), he gets +3 on his roll. This represents the Engineer's ability to craft these items himself. Note that the Hero ignores the rarity and gift of chaos special rules of chaos armours.
tyrant This skill is for the Chaos Dwarf leader only. This Priest of Hashut is renowned for his tyranny. His word is absolute so his own warband fears his cruelty more then the enemy. When making a Rout test, and if led by a leader with this skill, the leader may inspire his warband to stick around. This skill allows the leader to re-roll any failed Rout test, as long as the leader is not knocked down or stunned. If re-rolled, the new result will apply even if the new result is worse. If the leader is taken out of action the warband must make an immediate Rout test.
Issue 1- The Word of Hashut– 7
resource hunter This Chaos Dwarf is especially good at locating valuable resources. When rolling on the Exploration chart at the end of a game, the hero may modify one dice roll by +1/-1.
thick skull The Hero has a thick skull, even for a Chaos Dwarf. He has a 3+ save on a D6 to avoid being stunned. If the save is made, treat a stunned result as knocked down instead. If the Chaos Dwarf also wears a helmet, this save is 2+ instead of 3+ (this takes the place of the normal Helmet special rule).
true grit Chaos Dwarfs are hardy individuals and this Hero is resolute, even for a Chaos Dwarf! When rolling on the Injury table for this Hero, a roll of 1-3 is treated as knocked down, 4-5 as stunned, and 6 as out of action.
Chaos Dwarfs special equipment This equipment is only available to the Chaos Dwarfs, and no other warband may purchase it.
prison wagon
man-catcher 25 gold crowns Availability: Rare 10, Chaos Dwarfs only Semi-circular prongs mounted on pole-arms are popular among the Gaolers of Zharr-Naggrund. This non-lethal spring loaded device can ensnare the most violent of prisoners. Range: Close Combat; Strength: As user; Special Rules: Capture, Two-handed SPECIAL RULES RULES Capture: A model taken out of action by a Mancatcher becomes captured. Do not roll for Serious Injuries. The 'catch' is locked up in the Prison Wagon instead. If the warband does not include a Prison Wagon, roll for Serious Injuries as normal. Large models, such as Ogres, Trolls and Minotaurs, cannot be captured this way, and neither can animals.
mechanical suit 225 gold crowns Availability: Rare 14, Chaos Dwarfs only The Curse of Stone comes to all Chaos Dwarf Sorcerers, gradually transforming them to rock from the feet up. Engineers have crafted machines which can transport their Priests as they begin to pay the price for working dark rituals. SPECIAL RULES Chaos armour: A Mechanical suit counts as Chaos armour and rules that would affect Chaos armour affect the suit as well. Suited and booted: A Sorcerer equipped with a Mechanical suit receives +3 to Movement.
100 gold crowns Availability: Common, Chaos Dwarfs only The Chaos Dwarfs lock up their victims in an armoured wagon. This 'prison on wheels' is used to transport captives back to the Dark Lands to feed fuel to the furnaces or be sacrificed to Hashut. Profile

Daemon Engine 6
8 6 6

SPECIAL RULES Wagon: Wagon: The Prison Wagon follows all rules for Wagons (see Empire in Flames Supplement, p. 30–33). A Chaos Dwarf must function as the wagon driver. No other models but captives may board the Prison Wagon. No more than six captives may be locked in the Prison at a time – large creatures (Ogres, Minotaurs, etc.) count as two models. Engine: The Prison Wagon is powered by a Daemon Engine. All references to draft animals pulling the Wagon should be treated as referring to its Engine. Prison Wagon movement is unaffected by cargo. Captives: Models become captives by rolling the Captured result on the Serious Injuries table or by being taken out of action by a Man-catcher. Note that in both cases their equipment is lost to the Chaos Dwarf warband. Some results on the Mordheim Exploration chart let Chaos Dwarfs acquire captives: Straggler (one) and Prisoners (D3). From the Empire in Flames Exploration chart: Raving Lunatic (one), Lost Children (two), Mordheim Refugees (D3), The Hanging Tree (one), Small Farm and Large Farm (two). Captives can be set free by destroying the Prison Wagon or by using the prison keys. If a model puts the Chaos Dwarf warband's leader out of action they take the keys. A model that takes the keys may free the captives by moving into base contact with the Prison. If the Chaos Dwarfs rout before this happens or if the model with the keys is taken out of action (losing the keys to a new keeper), the captives remain captured. Freed captives must move towards the closest board edge. Captives not from warbands use the profile for human Warriors (see Mercenary warband). Rescued captives return to their former warbands. Hashut's Reward: The Chaos Dwarfs may choose to send captives back to the Dark Lands after a battle. If they do, all captured models are sacrificed to Hashut. The Prison Wagon plus one Hero must miss the next battle. No models may be captured until they return. Captives must be removed from their warbands rosters permanently. After the Hero rejoins the warband consult the following table to determine the reward.
Captives Hashut's Reward 1-3 4-5 6

+1 Experience point for the leader. +D3 Experience points which can be distributed among the Heroes. +2D3 Experience points which can be distributed among the Heroes plus D6x5 gold crowns.
Heroes 1 Sorcerer
85 gold crowns to hire It is the Priests of Hashut who administrate insidious edicts on behalf of the Chaos Dwarf race. This includes orchestrating trade agreements with the savage Northmen and Ogre tribes. From out of the Dark Lands they frequently lead warbands to plunder the Silk Road. Profile
Weapons/Armour: The Sorcerer may be equipped with weapons chosen from the Chaos Dwarf Equipment list. SPECIAL RULES Leader: Any warrior within 6" of the Sorcerer may use his Leadership when taking Ld tests. Wizard: The Sorcerer is a wizard and follows the rules for wizards in the magic section. Sorcerers may cast Rituals of Hashut. Priest: The Sorcerer starts with two rituals. One of them is the Sacrificial Ritual. The other spell is determined as usual from the Rituals of Hashut.
0-1 Bull Centaur 100 gold crowns to hire Bull Centaurs are keen witted creatures with the upper torso of a Chaos Dwarf and the body of a bull. They are the most favoured disciples to the Father of Darkness. In his divine image these mutated centauroids are fewer in number than Chaos Dwarfs, more powerful and swifter in battle.
Weapons/Armour: A Bull Centaur may be equipped with weapons and armour chosen from the Chaos Dwarf Equipment list, but may never use any missile weapons. SPECIAL RULES Large target: Bull centaurs are large creatures and therefore make tempting targets for archers. Anyone shooting at the Bull Centaur gains a +1 'to hit' and may shoot at it even if it is not the closest target. As large targets a Bull Centaur adds an extra +20 to the warband's rating.
0-2 Gaolers 50 gold crowns to hire Of all the Black Dwarfs it is the wicked Gaolers who are the most infamous. The minds of these merciless fiends are bent on inflicting pain and their repulsive methods strike fear into the hearts of men. Gaolers delight in the torture of their prisoners for whom death never comes quick enough. Profile
Weapons/Armour: Gaolers may be equipped with weapons chosen from the Chaos Dwarf Equipment list. SPECIAL RULES Nasty Reputation: Gaolers are known for their brutality. The dreaded sight of them and the very thought of being captured causes fear in Humans.
Henchmen Informers
0-5 Chaos Dwarfs
15 gold crowns to hire

For those imprisoned in the foundries of ZharrNaggrund, the fires of industry burn night and day. There is little reward for a spy, only deceitful promises of freedom. Lies are enough to motivate these treacherous informants into betraying their own kind for small dispensations.
These resentful creatures toil in the forges of their city stronghold. To boost the production of weapons and Chaos armour in the foundries they set out on expeditions armed with blunderbusses to bolster the labour force kept shackled in pits beneath the earth.
Weapons/Armour: Informers may be equipped with weapons and armour chosen from the Informer Equipment list. SPECIAL RULES RULES Drudgery: Informers have had their will broken by their masters and may never become Heroes.
Issue 1- The Word of Hashut– 9
Weapons/Armour: Chaos Dwarfs may be equipped with weapons and armour chosen from the Chaos Dwarf Equipment list.
Rituals of Hashut This is dark sorcery of fire and ash used by wicked Sorcerers among the Chaos Dwarfs. They are Priests and magicians who have carefully mastered the teachings of a daemonic god known as the Father of Darkness.
D6 Result 0
Sacrificial Ritual
Difficulty 10
The Chaos Dwarf Sorcerer sacrifices the captives in a bloody ritual, thus carrying out his assignments as a High Priest of Hashut. The Chaos Dwarf Sorcerer must be in contact with the Prison Wagon in order to successfully cast this spell. As the ritual requires the sacrifice of a mortal, remove one captive model from the Prison (and its warband's roster). The Sorcerer may sacrifice additional captives to lower the spell's difficulty by –1 per sacrifice. These models must be sacrificed before rolling for Difficulty. The Chaos Dwarf Sorcerer gains +D3 Experience.
Spirit of Hashut
Difficulty 9
The air around the Sorcerer thickens to form a billowing avatar of the great Bull-God. In defiance this unholy likeness to the Father of Darkness rolls forward, trampling all before it. The player draws a line 18" from the Sorcerer. All models crossed by the line, suffer one S4 hit.
Bellow of Doom
Difficulty 8
Crackling with arcane energy, the Sorcerer's features contort into the horned visage of the mighty Hashut. Smoke and flame spills from his maw, as he lets loose a deafening sound that none may escape. All models engaged in base contact with the sorcerer must make an immediate Ld test or break from combat and run.
Fumes of Azgorh
Difficulty 7
The Sorcerer's mouth glows. Clouds of black gas are slowly emitted until with an almighty belch, a wave of corrosive smoke erupts from his gaping jaws. The spell has a range of 8'', hitting all models in its path on a D6 score of 4+. Any model hit suffers a S4 hit, roll to wound as normal. No armour saves allowed.
Flickering Hide
Difficulty 10
With eldritch power the target begins to burn from within. His skin spits and sparks wherever a blow is struck as if like molten iron. The Sorcerer may cast this spell upon himself or any one model within 6". The flaming hide will negate any one wound suffered on a D6 roll of 4+. In hand-to-hand combat, any model which hits the flaming hide will suffer one S3 hit for each hit scored. The Flaming Hide lasts until the beginning of the Sorcerer's next shooting phase.
Lava Flow
Difficulty 7
The Sorcerer melts into molten magma, burning itself into the earth. The Sorcerer then reappears after seeping unnaturally through the ground. The Sorcerer may move 12" in any direction, even into combat, counting as a charge. However, due to the nature of this spell the Sorcerer may only reappear on or below the ground.
Difficulty 9
Arms raised, the Sorcerer brings his staff crashing to the ground. The earth ripples outwards from the blow, and splits asunder. All models within 3" of the Sorcerer, friend or foe alike, must roll equal to or under their Initiative or suffer D3 S4 hits.

Member Fiction Dark Testament By Thommy H
Otto Schmleik lightly raised the small vial of smelling salts to one of his powdered nostrils as he and his guide crossed the open courtyard of the fortified outpost. The wide area was swarming with livestock of all kinds and the smell was testament to how long the poor creatures had been thus imprisoned. In the wake of the Chaos invasion, many of the ordinary citizens of The Empire had turned to crime to make ends meet and, in such a rural area, primary among such transgressions was cattle and sheep rustling. It was no wonder Lord Bernhoff was taking such extreme measures to protect his property from such lawlessness. "I really don't see how one prisoner can cause such a stir, Captain," Otto said as he averted his eyes from the sidelong glances that the rough-looking soldiers loitering around the courtyard gave him. He hardly needed them to remind him how far he was from his comfortable home in Altdorf where the greatest danger he was likely to face was a withering opening statement from an Advocate for the Defence. "You're a lawman, aren't you?" "Well, yes, but I'm actually in this region on behalf of the Imperial Office of..." "If you're anythin' with 'Imperial' in the title, then you'll do for us."
mar's sake, and the whole place looked like it was put together by Bretonnians. Otto reassured himself that this state of disrepair was most likely a result of the war and that the people of The Empire actually had much greater pride in their castles than was evident from this middenheap. The Captain seemed to suit the castle. Lord Bernhoff was a grotesque, bilious man who had been unable to even lift himself from his bed to greet Otto, but his Captain was a weather-beaten, rangy individual, attired in a rough assortment of armour. The uniform he wore beneath the mismatched plates might once have been the black and white of the province, but now both halves had becomeshades of filthy grey. When he smirked in that wanton way of his, there were gaps in his teeth. Otto suspected that he had once been a common soldier – perhaps even some mercenary thug – who, in the anarchy of the Chaos invasion, had found himself the recipient of a series of field promotions that left him with a station far above his dubious breeding. There was more than a little Tilean in his colouring and cocksure swagger too. The swarthy soldier opened a door in the wall of the castle. "Where are we going?" Otto asked, unable to hide the waver in his voice. "Down to the dungeons, of course," the Captain chuckled. "Down...down there...?" He rolled his eyes. "That's right."
"Yes, but this isn't even my jurisdiction," Otto protested, jogging to keep up with the Captain's long stride, "and I'm actually here in my capacity as an expert in land taxation to oversee the regeneration efforts following the depredations of..."
"I really don't see how this can be worth my while, Captain...uh...Captain...?" He realised that the man had never given his name.
"Too many long words," the Captain smirked, "we're just simple country folks here, Prosecutor."
Well that confirmed it then. The man belonged on the docks in Marienburg or Luccini, brawling with the rest of the drunks and vagabonds, not wearing an Imperial uniform, filthy as it was.
Otto affected a small laugh, but he was beginning to feel increasingly uncomfortable with the situation. The accommodations in Wolfenburg had been quite rustic enough for his tastes, but this bleak fortress that was virtually in Kislev for Sig-

"Captain Gozzadini," he replied absently.
"Are you going in?" Otto quailed at the darkness on the other side of
the doorway – could this be some kind of elaborate trap masterminded by one of his enemies in Altdorf? Would he spend the rest of his days rotting in some Sigmar forsaken hole beneath a decrepit outpost in a forgotten corner of Ostland? No...it would never work...he had left word with Count von Raukov's people as to his whereabouts, and they would soon come looking for him if he was gone for too long – after all, he was the only one who could open the Emperor's coffers to provide aid for the beleaguered province. He had nothing to fear. And yet...it was very dark in there... But it was the look that Captain Gozzadini gave him as well as the amused leers of his men that finally pushed Otto over the threshold. He couldn't stand another moment of their unspoken derision; looking at him like he was some kind of embarrassment to manhood. Didn't they know that he had once been a suitor to some of the most beautiful noblewomen in all of Reikland? Of course, none of them had ever returned his affections in any overt manner, but still. He swept through the doorway and into the shadows, only to nearly trip over his cape as the floor dropped away into a staircase in front of him. With another of his disgusting smirks, the Captain sidled past him and took a lamp down from a shelf high on the wall. He deftly lit it and then proceeded down the steps. Otto once again had to hurry to keep up, but also had to constantly check his step so as not to slip on the poorly-maintained flagstones. His footwear, a kind of padded slipper, was currently the height of fashion in Altdorf (and he hoped it still would be when he returned), but it was not very practical for negotiating this kind of architecture. In a few moments, the two men had reached what was evidently the dungeon level. A burly gaoler with an enormous hairy stomach that hung down over his breeches and a festering boil on one cheek opened the main door for them with his heavy set of keys and, as they stepped through, closed it behind them. There was an ominous click as the door was locked again. "Can't be too careful", Gozzadini winked, but Otto noticed that he had his hand set on the pommel of the sword he carried at his hip. While the rest of the Captain's person was in a state of ill-kept disarray,
Issue 1- The Word of Hashut– 13
Otto suddenly saw that the hilt of his sword was polished to a golden gleam and what he had taken for an arrogant swagger he now saw, in the half-light, was actually catlike grace: the measured, confident movements of a master swordsman. "This way," the Captain indicated with a jerk of his head. Otto followed obediently, not wanting to be left behind in the darkness outside the reach of the feeble light from Gozzadini's lamp. Eventually, they came to a heavy, reinforced wooden door. Only a bar across the outside fastened it shut, and Gozzadini shifted it with a grunt. He swung the door open and stepped inside. Otto followed and saw that the Captain was fastening the lamp to a hook on one wall. The room – the cell - was small, and the dim light almost totally filled it, leaving only the furthest corners in shadow. The cell smelled rank: even worse than the courtyard outside. It was windowless, and evidently unventilated. There were a few lumps of filthy straw that served as bedding for the unfortunate occupant, but nothing else in the way of furniture. Otto was an Imperial Prosecutor and, though his particular area of expertise was debts and taxation, he had more than a passing familiarity with prison regulations. This cell would not have passed muster. But none of that concerned him at this moment for, chained against a wall, was the prisoner of which Gozzadini and, earlier, Lord Bernhoff, had spoken, and he was the most curious figure Otto had ever seen. The creature uncurled itself from its foul bed of straw and glared at them both with dark, deep-set eyes. At first, Otto thought it was a Halfling or just a deformed Human, but as the being sat up and then pulled itself into a standing position on its thick, short legs, he saw that it was a Dwarf, but like no Dwarf Otto had ever seen. "What is he...?" "A Dwarf, as near as we can tell." "I know that," he snapped, "but where did he come from?" "We captured him towards the end of the war. He was out in the forest with one of those cannons." "Cannons?" Otto glanced at the Captain and raised
his eyebrows. "Aye. The daemon cannons Archaon tried to bring down the walls of Middenheim with." "I think I heard about them, yes. But I didn't think Chaos forces used artillery." "They didn't – not until these little buggers started their filthy work," Gozzadini spat as he pointed at the strange looking Dwarf. The stunted creature stared at them. He was as squat and heavily muscled as all his kind, but there the resemblance ended. His flesh was dark and so bronzed it was almost red, and his beard was as black as soot. Instead of being loose or plaited, as Otto had seen so often in other Dwarfs, it was coiled into tight rings. Elaborate gold and iron jewellery, shaped like arrows and skulls, hung from the end of each coil, covering his pot belly. His nose – long and hooked – was pierced by a fat gold ring but, strangest of all, he had long tusks, like those of a boar, protruding upwards from his mouth. His head was shaved bald. There was a brand in the centre of his forehead; a rune Otto didn't recognise. His shoulders bore other brands and tattoos, but these Otto did recognise them: Chaos runes and stars. "He is some deviant of Dwarfkind," Otto said dismissively, "a renegade, just like many of the northern warriors and the vile cultists that plague our cities." "We thought you might know what to do with him." "Why not simply kill him as you would any other Chaos worshipper?" Otto was not normally a violent man, but, like most other citizens of The Empire these past years, he had little sympathy for the servants of the Dark Gods. Almost everyone had lost at least one friend or relative to the depredations of Chaos, and he was no exception. "I'll not spill Dwarf blood within these walls," the Captain said darkly, "not without say-so from one of their Kings. You know how they are with their grudges..." "True enough. When I return to Altdorf, I shall send a man to the Dwarf enclave and have them contact the High King. He will no doubt dispatch a delegation to take this one back to Karaz-a-Karak or else send orders for him to be killed."
Issue 1- The Word of Hashut– 14
"Alright then." "Now, if you don't mind, Captain Gozzadini," Otto said, suppressing a shudder as he looked around at the cramped cell, "I'd like to get out of here as soon as possible." "Will you feed me today, manling?" Otto turned and stared at the Dwarf. "And none of your mewling infant food," he continued, speaking in heavily accented, guttural tones, "the Dwarf King would want me strong to face his false judgement." "You...you speak Imperial?" The Dwarf grinned; a menacing expression with his curved tusks. "I learned your children's tongue before I came to these soft lands so that I might communicate with my so-called allies in the army of the Everchosen." "Soft lands?" "Ignore him," Gozzadini said, pulling lightly at one of Otto's puffy, brightly-coloured sleeves, "he always rants about some strange country beyond the mountains. He's mad." "There are lands beyond the mountains," Otto said. Gozzadini looked dubious. He pulled away and approached the prisoner. "You are not from the Old World then? You are not a Dwarf of the World's Edge Mountains?" "I am no western traitor, no." "Then what realm is it that you call home? Are you of some race of Dwarfs from the northern wastes? A part of the teeming Chaos hordes?" "I am of the Dawi'Zharr, manling, one of the Children of Hashut." Otto looked at Gozzadini. "Do you speak Dwarfish?" No." "Tell me then, Child of Hashut," Otto said, turning back to the Dwarf, all his earlier terror suddenly forgotten in the rush of academic curiosity, "of what manner are your people, and how came
they to be estranged from other Dwarfs?" The Dwarf chuckled a dry, humourless laugh. "You wish to know of the Dawi'Zharr, of the people who are called, by the ignorant softlanders, 'Chaos Dwarfs'?" "Yes!" "To know the Dawi'Zharr, you must know the land from which they come; the land beyond your pitiful hills that you call mountains. Your home, this 'Empire', is a place of forests and meadows: a weak, green land. My home, the Dark Lands, is a realm of black earth and dead things. It is a realm that would swallow up your Empire a dozen times and where, from horizon to horizon there is nothing but bare rock, spewing forth the raging fury of the world's molten heart to bubble across the dead ground. It is a realm of wolves and wind, where no rivers run, and no trees grow. To see it would break your Human mind: shatter it into a thousand pieces." "I find your land to be highly dubious. Such a waste would appear on every map. I have heard of the Dark Lands, yes, but they are merely unexplored wilderness, not a desolate hellscape as you pretend." "And why are they unexplored, manling?" "They are rife with tribes of greenskins – another reason you are lying. What Dwarf could stand to live in a land infested with such creatures?" "The greenskins are our slaves. Tribe after tribe of Orc, Goblin and Hobgoblin bound to our servitude. All across the Dark Lands the influence of the Dawi'Zharr is felt, though our true homeland is in the far north of that realm." "Oh?" "Yes, manling." He beckoned Otto closer. "Imagine for a moment the dark, pulsing heart of your Empire. The greatest city, in which your foolish clockwork machines are invented, and where your little workshops and factories produce the children's toys that you call guns." "You are speaking of Altdorf...or perhaps Nuln."
Issue 1- The Word of Hashut– 15
"Maybe. The names of your dwellings do not interest me. But still, fix in your mind the image of the Empire's industry: the clouds of smoke and chemicals, the effluence of progress staining the earth with its foulness." "The scars that our technological advances wreak on the environment are often regrettable, yes..." The Dwarf laughed. "'Regrettable'? What a mannish thing to say... But you know of what I speak – the scars, yes, that is the word. The scars of industry. You know of that bleak place in your cities where factories ruin the air and earth. Well, my homeland is that ruin multiplied untold times, stretching over an area a hundred leagues in every direction from our great capital. The very earth cries out in agony as we tear it apart with drills and blades. Every hillock is studded with a chimney belching forth black foulness and every valley is sluiced with thick tar and oil. Our kingdom is built into a great crater where the dark orb you call Morsileb smote the hateful land in hopes it would be destroyed forever. Instead, it unearthed all the wealth of the earth's bosom for the Dawi'Zharr to claim. And claim it we have, using gold and iron and obsidian and the lives of millions of slaves to build the great tower of Zharr-Naggrund that sits, squat and evil, glowering at our empire of suffering and hatred. And all this misery sits beneath a pall of black smoke that prevents the light of your precious sun from even touching our lands. What would you think if you could see that place, manling?" Otto considered his words. The strange Dwarf had indeed painted a hellish picture, but he just shook his head. "It is a good story, and you tell it convincingly, but there is no truth in – there is no such place as 'Zharr-Naggrund' and the Dark Lands are nothing more than an unexplored foreign clime." "What makes you so sure of that, manling?" "Why would such a powerful empire, capable of such intense industry never have been heard of in The Empire? Why have your people not come marauding across the mountains?" "What need have we of coming to this weak land? You have nothing here that is precious to us. We have no interest in you." Otto scoffed. "How convenient..."
"Yes, for you. Your Empire is weak and ruined after this war – but one day you shall recover, and your technology will improve and your industries will grow. One day, you may be a power worth conquering. That is when we will come for you, to learn the secrets your engineers will

discover, and enslave your people and machines to serve our ends. Archaon's war will look like an insignificant skirmish compared to the storm the Chaos Dwarfs will unleash upon you. The Dawi'Zharr do not know defeat, and we do not understand mercy: when we come for you, it will be in such force that the very earth and skies will tremble in fear. And we will come for you, manling. We will come for you."
Recently there has been some interest in the game Blood Bowl in the Off Topic section of the Forum http://chaos-dwarfs. Zzharg Madeye, Chaos Dwarf Star Player (painted by Geckillian) com/forum/showthread. php?tid=2590. A few people have played it but some may not have even heard of it. A few people were surprised to find out that the rules can be freely downloaded from here: http://www. specialist-games.com/bloodbowl/rulebook.asp
Otto shook his head. "You were right, Captain. He is insane." "Told you." The Dwarf slumped back down against the wall, closing his eyes. Wordlessly, Captain Gozzadini took the lamp down from the hook and led the way out of the cell, barring the door behind them and leaving the prisoner in darkness again.

Blood Bowl is an awesome game and lets see some more in the coming months concerning the formation of teams; its a great way to paint something different in between paining Chaos Dwarfs, assuming you are painting something besides a Chaos Dwarf Team... Figures for the game are still available from GW on the Specialist website: http://tinyurl. com/5rolu including the chaos dwarf team! Other then that its off to "vultureBay"- where prices have not (as of yet) escalated... For reference the following teams are available in Blood Bowl: Amazon, Chaos, Chaos Dwarf (yah!), Dark Elf, Dwarf, High Elf, Goblin, Halfling (my personal favorite), Human, Khemri, Lizardman, Necromantic, Nurgle, Ogre, Orc, Skaven, Undead, Vampire, and Wood Elf.
to play.
So get cracking on those teams, its a great game, quick to "paint up" and fast

Member Fiction Groth Steelbeard By Torn
Groth Steelbeard tenses his shoulder muscles. The weight of his new armour felt good resting on his squat frame. He lifted his chin, high and proud, raising the solid black steel helm of his immortal armour. He marched, left foot, pause, right foot, pause. The clunk of shields on armour was deafening with every step. He couldn't see very much in front of him. As a new initiate into the order he was assigned to a rank near the back. A more glorious position would be his if he could prove himself this day with the blood of his enemy. The head of the dwarf in front of him bobbed up and down, and those to the side of the one in front were bobbing in perfect rhythm. Those to his sides he could not see, for the slits in his visor didn't allow such vision, yet it was not needed in such a perfectly crafted suit. 'Halt' cried the master immortal, the words barely reaching Groth over the sounds of distant battle. Now that was a position he would like to covet, although it was said the current master had held that position for over nine hundred years, and there were a thousand immortals all wanting the same power. The immortals all stomped the ground with their right foot, standing to attention. A dust cloud rose to the air, filling the already blackened sky with even more dirt and ash. They lifted their shields to fighting position and held their weapons to the ready. Most carried black-forged axes, although some carried wickedly barbed maces or devastating hammers. Groth himself carried the axe Manflayer, an ancient heirloom of the Steelbeard clan. Its daemon blessed blade could cleave through flesh and bone as if it were butter, and he was getting ready to test it this day on the flesh of a human war host. 'Brace for the charge' he heard the master shout. The masters voice was now much louder, much more urgent. Although Groth had no idea what enemy was coming he knew what to expect. The stench of manlings overpowered even the smoke
Issue 1- The Word of Hashut– 17
and blackpowder of the imperfect human war machines. 'Shields raise!' he heard another voice scream, this time more high pitched. He assumed it was the standard bearer, as no other but he and the master were permitted to issue commands. He had never met this dwarf, but could clearly see the emblem of immortality at the front of their block, lofted high and swaying in the wind. The sound of a thousand shield rising was something he would never forget, all in perfect unison it was like the footfall of a titan from the north. And it came just in time, as volley after volley of human arrow pelted down onto their upturned shields. It was a feeble attempt Groth knew, as the immortal armour could withstand much more than soft iron heads attached to flimsy wooden stalks. And then the enemy battle-lines hit. The first thing Groth experienced was the crush. His comrades were being forced back into the lines behind them, and the lines at the back keeping steady feet and pushed their comrades forward again. How he missed being at the forefront. He could hear the pitiful screaming of humans and the whining of their steeds as they were cut down mercilessly and without care. The immortals had no use for slaves. Eventually the formation broke. Enemy soldiers, now seen dressed in a gaudy red and white cloth, were making gaps in the immortal line. How the rest of the battle fared Groth knew, or cared, not. The failure of his allies in Hashut's eyes was not his failure, and his glory was his own. Groth rushed forwards bringing Manflayer down at a fortyfive degree angle through the neck and shoulder of a tall lithe human wearing no armour save a light mail hauberk. The creature had no chance. Its head hung limp from its shoulders attached only by a dangling strand of skin and gristle as its body collapsed in a heap. The human behind the first was as easily dis patched by a roundhouse swing through its midsection. (Continued on page 25)
HOBBY SECTION Modeling Sneaky Gits
By Lord Archaon
How to make Sneaky Gits from the Night Goblin Archers from the BFsP Starter Set Many of you may have seen Nemo's cool Sneaky Gits http://chaos-dwarfs.com/forum/ showthread.php?tid=732 that where made out of the BfSP Night Goblin Archers. I was inspired, so I set up a step-by-step tutorial on how to make them.
1. Gather up your Night Goblin Archers from the BfSP and some materials to make the blades. I used Space Marine Scouts arms, an Ogre Gut plate with knives; Goblin bows to show you the difference, so you can decide, what looks the best. 2. Begin by to cutting the bows and quivers from away from the Night Goblins. Next up you'll want to cut all the knives from your various bits. 3. Next step is to cut the Night Goblins in half right below the belt line. I also chopped off the top of his hat, or you may opt to keep it depending on what you desire for the look of the finished model. 4. Drill the upper and lower haves in roughly the same spot so they line up. Next cut a piece of wire and insert in both holes in the torso. Use your super glue to hold until sturdy then leave to dry. 5. Next up is to fill the gap(s) with green stuff and try to make the green stuff look more like cloth. If you accidently damaged some details (like me) ;) then it's time to restore them. To improve the Sneaky Gits, you can add belts, masks, pouches, etc. And there you have it! An easy way to make Sneaky Gits from the BfSP starter set. (Or as Willmark likes to say: "Its all about maximum utilization").

HOBBY SECTION Convertiing Chaos Dwarfs- A Guide to Faces by Abyss
This is where I'm going to begin for this article, here I have followed the same process as explained in Xander's videos on converting the BFSP dwarfs, however when preparing the model none of the dwarfs faces have been cut off, only the original beard. The first step is to work on the models nose- this is done by getting an appropriately sized ball of green stuff and pressing it over the models original nose. Make sure its pressed well against the bridge of the original nose otherwise you'll encounter problems when trying to shape it. Once it's secure it's just a case of moulding it to the right shape, just a general triangular shape will do as it's on such a small scale. This is roughly what the nose should look like once finished, it's not pretty I know but we're aiming for a look that can be achievable by anyone. Next step is the moustache. To start the moustache you need to have 2 shapes like this for each side. This is achieved by rolling a ball of green stuff between your fingers and applying pressure to only one side. Once this shape is achieved it can be stuck onto the models face (fat end nearest the nose) and have lines pressed in it long ways so it looks like a moustache. Once both sides are complete the model should now look like the picture shown here.
Issue 1- The Word of Hashut– 19
The last steps are the mouth and teeth; I find that a suitably convincing mouth can be made just using a small roll of green stuff; this can then just be pushed onto the beard in a suitable place. The second method is to pre-cut triangular teeth from a roll of green stuff, this is the method I prefer as it allows me to make sure the teeth are correct before committing any green stuff to the model and potentially ruining it. And so once both teeth have been cut and stuck on the model should look something like this and is now ready to be painted. Below are some examples of the same technique applied to some different models as well as the BfSP.
By Thommy H
(Direct from the forum here are two special characters for use in your games at home courtesy of Thommy- Willmark). http://www.chaos-dwarfs.com/forum/ showthread.php?tid=993 Astragoth Chaos Dwarfs respect age as much as their western kin, and the title of High Priest of Hashut traditionally falls to the oldest Sorcerer Lord currently living. For Chaos Dwarf Sorcerers, this takes on particular significance, as during their lives, their use of dark magic gradually turns their bodies to stone. The older a Sorcerer is, the more immobile he becomes, and the more his power wanes. It is only the iron bonds of respect and tradition that allow The High Priests of Hashut to maintain their standing, and they must constantly watch out for the dealings of more unscrupulous, younger Sorcerers. Astragoth is the current High Priest of Hashut and therefore the oldest living Chaos Dwarf Sorcerer. During the height of his powers, he was the most powerful Sorcerer to walk the Plain of Zharr in a thousand years. Now, however, his petrified body can no longer master magic as it once did, for almost all of Astargoths body is now stone. He must carried from place to place by his followers, and his underlings must perform many of the more complex rites of his spells. In an effort to overcome these disabilities, Astragoth ordered the creation of a special device blending sorcery and technology: a mechanical body grafted to his stone limbs that now enables him to move and cast spells. Where other Sorcerers must rely on the help of their servants and become increasingly feeble, Astragoth can now take
Issue 1- The Word of Hashut– 20
part in battles, lending his considerable magical talent to Chaos Dwarf slaving parties, as well as using his mechanical might to physically pummel his enemies something other Chaos Dwarf Sorcerers can only dream of. Most DawiZharr consider Astragoth quite mad, but while he lives he is still the High Priest of Hashut and they must accept him, mechanical body and all. Astragoth is the oldest Chaos Dwarf Sorcerer in existence and the High Priest of Hashut. He is a Lord choice, but if used he also takes up a Hero slot. He must be used exactly as described below
and no additional equipment or magic items may be taken. M
Points: 475 Weapons: The Hammerhand Armour: Stone body (3+ Armour save) MAGIC Astragoth is a Level 4 Wizard and may chose to use either the Fire, Metal, Shadow or Death lores of magic from the Warhammer rulebook. SPECIAL RULES Mechanical Limbs: Astragoth wears an elaborate construction that combines dark magic and twisted science. This device enables him to move at the increased rate as shown on his profile. However, Astragoth may move no faster than this, and cannot march. He may only charge 6. The only exception to this is fleeing and pursuing, when Astragoth will move 2D6. Steam Attack: True to his devious and unhinged personality, Astragoth has discovered a brutal method of attack utilising his mechanical limbs that he occasionally uses when the opportunity arises. Switching the pistons that power his limbs around to face nearby foes, Astragoth emits a gout of scalding hot steam that causes agonising burns. Astragoth counts as having a breath weapon attack that hits at Strength 3 and is flaming, however note that he can only use this if he does not move in the Movement phase as it requires him to utilise his pistons for something besides moving. Stone Body: Astragoths body has almost entirely succumbed to the Sorcerers Curse, and much of him is now made of stone. In addition to its debilitating effects, this horrific transformation also makes Astragoth extremely difficult to harm. He benefits from a 3+ Armour save, which doesnt affect his ability to cast spells. This save may not
Issue 1- The Word of Hashut– 21
be combined with any other form of armour. MAGIC ITEMS The Hammerhand Astragoths mechanical suit is powered by steamdriven pistons. As well as allowing him to move, these pistons are also capable of sending his stone fists into overdrive, pounding on anyone unfortunate to be in his path. The effect of a steam-powered arm made of solid rock is rarely anything but fatal. The Hammerhand confers the killing blow ability on Astragoths attacks. The Rod of Obsidian This short staff crafted of black volcanic glass is the badge of office for the High Priest of Hashut and forces the winds of magic to bend to the will of its holder, creating a vortex of anti-magic that protects him from enemy spells. The Rod of Obsidian allows any Dispel attempt to be re-rolled. The Mark of Hashut All Chaos Gods have the power to grant their followerssacred Marks, embodying them with a small portion of their infinite power. Hashut is no different, but the natural resistance that Dwarfs possess towards magic as well as the nature of their strictly ordered society means that Hashut only gifts his mark to his mightiest servant: the High Priest. The Mark of Hashut is unique to Astragoth and gives him unparalleled mastery over his gods chief domain: fire. The Mark of Hashut grants Astragoth a 5+ Ward save and renders him immune to all fire-based attacks, including spells and magic weapons that involve fire or are flaming. In addition to this, should Astragoth chose to use the Lore of Fire for his spells, he channels the raw ferocity of Hashut into his magic and generates an additional power dice in his own magic phase.
Geography of The Dark Lands By Willmark
The Tower of Gorgoth Mining site noted for the extraction of volcanic ores from the earth. The Daemon's Stump Site of a battle between Ogres and a Daemon of Khorne (-2130). It is reputted that a deamon of Khorne was imprisioned here. Gash Kardak (the Vale of Woe) This locale is situated east of Zharr Naggrund. This place is of note as it is the home of the Sneaky Gits tribe.
The following is a brief over view of the Dark Lands, domain of the Dawi Zharr. The Tower of Zharr-Naggrund The huge and monstrous capital city, the city of Fire and Desolation. Home of the Chaos Dwarfs and focus of all of their toil and endeavors. Zharr Naggrund is a massive ziggurat rising from the plains of Zharrduk. The upper levels are home to the Chaos Dwarf Sorcerers and houses the massive Temple of Hashut The Plain of Zharr A vast, deep scar on the plain littered with the toil and refuse of thousands of years of exploitation; a place of no plant life and brackish oil slags. Here countless slaves toil and work for their overlords to the point of exhaustion, and ultimately, death. The River Ruin Is a cold river that girds the western slopes of the Mountains of Mourn. Upon entering the city of Zharr Naggrund its waters are contaminated with the run-off of thousands of furnaces, machines and other countless industries. When it flows southwards from the city it is stained red and has a noxious, foul, yellow cloud hanging over it. The Mountains of Mourn The Mountains of Mourn were first explored by dwarfs travelling eastwards across the Zorn Uzkul ("Great Skull Land") from the World's Edge Mountains (circa -4,300 IC). These mountains form a barrier (that is pierced by a few passes) to the east and the Ogre Kingdoms therein.
Issue 1- The Word of Hashut– 22
The Sea of Dread This vast sea bounds the southern Darklands and is reputed to be full of dangerous sea creatures. Chaos Dwarf fleets sometimes sail its length to gain access to and raid lands in the East- Ind, Cathay and Nippon. The Falls of Doom In order to carry out seaborne raids on the Sea of Claws to the north and thus the Old World as a whole) the Chaos Dwarfs built a underground canal linking the River Ruin to the sea to the north. It is through here that their mighty fleets sail from their bases in Zharr Naggrund, exiting at Uzkulak ("The Palace of the Skull"). Zorn Uzkul ("The Great Skull Land"): This is the name of the land east of the World's Edge Mountains and Kislev by the dwarfs in ages past. Its northeasterly trails lead to nomadic tribes of marauders.

I'm currently living in South East England, although my family is from all over the place. Other than Warhammer I devote my time to Politics (local, national and global), sport, especially martial arts, and cooking. Away from my studies I work in a local pub (an old English Tavern for you foreigners) and occasionally intern at Westminster during my long vacations. I'm hoping to get involved in the New Zealand general election and the Obama campaign later this year and next.
How long have you been playing Warhammer? I've been into the hobby since I was a wee nipper and the 4th edition was in its dying days. My first army was Wood Elves, closely followed by Bretonnians. I've collected every army (Vampires are the exception) with varying degrees of success but Chaos captured my imagination in the 6th edition. I took a break from the hobby shortly after
Issue 1- The Word of Hashut– 24
Storm of Chaos but returned last year to discover 7th edition has made many of my armies redundant. Remodeling continues apace. Why Chaos Dwarfs? One Gamesday I saw the concept art for the Hellcannon and was inspired. I converted a unit of Chaos Dwarf mercenaries and that was about it. When I decided to return to the hobby the first box I opened contained my chaos dwarfs. I decided to do some research and discovered the then fledgling CDO. Inspired I rushed out and bought BFSP. I'd done a lot of conversions but never used green-stuff except for repairs and filling gaps. To say its been a learning curve is an understatement! The Future: Obviously I'm continuing to work on Chaos Dwarfs, but I'm also geting my chaos horde ready
for the two new lists and 7th ed in general. Other than that, I'm working on some ogres (from the Spawnchompers tribe) and a new version of my first love, the Asrai. Pics soon so keep your eyes peeled

(continued from Page 17) The imperial gargled blood in its throat and dropped to its knees trying to keep its guts inside. It was crushed by one of its own cavalry officers, who was then skewered by a well place axe haft from Dawi Zharr on Groth's right hand side. The frenzy was starting to build now. he shook his head and screamed in rage, the jangling of his honorary beard-scales adding to the fearsome effect. The entirety of the immortals all did the same. The humans were wide eyed and terrified, trying to run, but being pushed into the fray by their own men that had nowhere to go. The melee was pure chaos. Then the Chaos Dwarf artillery let loose. Daemon bound engines firing rockets and shells deep into the enemy line. The battlefield was filled with the acrid stench of daemon-mixed black powder, and the furious explosions tore chunks from the Imperial army. With a roar the immortal master led his regiment in a charge straight into the remnants of the human war host. When Groth came out of his frenzy, there was not a single human left alive.

If it's not from his stand-up performances then you probably know Jon from Dodge's popular ad campaign as the "Hemi guy" where Jon is known to millions as the redheaded hillbilly in the Dodge Ram commercials who leans out of a beat-up car and utters the now famous line: "That thing gotta Hemi?"
Born in Hickory, NC, Jon moved to Raleigh to earn a Bachelor of Arts degree in theater at North Carolina State University. In 2000 Jon was invited to perform at the prestigious Just for Laughs Festival in Montreal, Canada and has since been invited back to perform in the "Best of the Fest" and a "Gala" show. Other notable festival dates include performing at the Las Vegas Comedy Festival and the Bonaroo Music & Arts Festival and the Vancouver Comedy Festival.
Now based in Los Angeles, Jon is one of the hardest working comics in America, performing on television, in films and selling out clubs and theaters across the country. His show is supersonic energy filled with non-stop characters, super clever writing and of course the one talent that separates Jon from all other comedians in the world: He's the best redneck dancer since Elvis.

Goodbye dancers. While the first ads for Microsoft's Surface tablet were geared around either dancing or comparing it with the iPad, when it comes to the Surface Pro 3, Microsoft has made the smart decision to highlight what it is that makes the tablet so great. From the keyboard to the display to the pen — with its easy activation of OneNote — this ad hits all the right points. It's not trying to be abstract, it's not trying to be cheeky, and it's not making the case that it should be compared to the iPad or any other tablet.
No, Microsoft is finally making the point we've been telling them to make all along: the Surface can replace a laptop. It helps that this is done in a fast-paced and well-produced spot that gets direct and to the point: here's the pen, here's the kickstand, here's the keyboard — all of it in action. Microsoft has struggled with their Surface advertising before, and we're glad to see them stepping up and making an ad that really highlights what's great about a product instead of just how it's different from another product.
Give it a watch and let us know what you think.

Finnish telecom equipment maker Nokia is buying the half stake owned by German engineering giant Siemens in their joint broadband venture NSN. The move comes as both firms are in restructuring mode.
Nokia shares, which had fallen sharply because of the companies' problems with mobile phone sales, jumped by almost 8 percent on the news that it would be the sole owner of Nokia Siemens Networks (NSN).
"Once the deal is concluded in the third quarter of 2013, NSN will become a wholly owned subsidiary of Nokia," both firms said in a statement on Monday.
Strategic decision
For Nokia, the move means it will be able to take full control of its most profitable business. It will continue betting on the technology to run 4G networks after it stumbled as a maker of smartphones.
"With the transaction, Nokia buys itself a future, whatever happens in smartphones and feature phones," Bernstein analyst Pierre Ferragu said in a statement.
The NSN high-speed mobile broadband venture was set up back in 2007, with the partnership agreement expiring in April of this year. Nokia said NSN's headquarters would remain in Espoo, Finland.

Many have died before us for lesser reasons, to me this is a very

It may be a useless battle, but i would rather die with honnor defending the
constitution and following the footsetps of my father, grandfather and ones before

Icy relations between the US and Marxist Mozambique may be thawing.
A US delegation led by Frank Wisner, deputy assistant secretary of state for African affairs, visited Maputo this week for talks on regional issues and held open the possibility of US aid for Mozambique's deteriorating economy. The talks were described as ''frank and productive'' and as part of an process begun in October when US Secretary of State George Shultz met Mozambique Foreign Minister Joaquin Chissano in Washington.
In '81, Mozambique expelled four US Embassy officials for alleged spying. The US retaliated by cutting off food aid to Mozambique.m

When I was a little girl, only 10-years-old, my father was pastoring the 4th largest Baptist church in the state of Louisiana. We had just moved to New Orleans and not long after my father had taken the pulpit at his new church, my world completely changed as I knew it. Because of a combination of some poor choices made by the adults in my life, and some very personal things taking place between my mother and father, my church life and family life became a total wreck and source of devastation.
As all of this was unraveling in our lives, I was still attending school at the church where my father pastored. Unfortunately, some of the most hateful people in my life have been the very people I have sat next to on Sunday mornings. As I played in the courtyard at recess during my 5th grade year, someone had strategically placed a very hateful note near my lunchbox, so that when I sat down to eat my lunch that day, I would read how much they hated my father and how he didn't deserve to be in the position he was in as a pastor.
While the feelings of the person who left that note near my lunchbox that day may or may not have been justified, for a child to be caught in the crossfire, to have to pay for the consequences of the decisions of her father is not fair. It is not right. But it happens every day. You see? As adults, we sometimes don't consider that our poor decisions will affect those around us. But they do. And the affects can last a lifetime.
For me that painful moment as a 10-year-old girl, marked the beginning of a very long, and painful at times, journey with the Lord. But it also marked the beginning of what I now see was the road to my purpose in this life – my destiny, my ministry, the reason for which my God created me. See? Only our God can use our deepest hurt and our most shame-filled moments for good and for His glory.
Are you at a place, yet, where you can see that God can AND wants to use the good AND the bad in your life? I do not believe that He wills painful things to happen to His children, but I DO believe He can use them to create us into something beautiful. That is just who He is.
"Now to him who is able to do far more abundantly than all that we ask or think, according to the power at work within us, to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, forever and ever. Amen."
-Ephesians 3:20 (ESV)

The Game of Fish and Men, Starlogo Edition
This is a game I created for a class (11.127 at the MIT Teacher Education Program), that actually turned out pretty well. Well enough that it was requested that I put it up on the Web for all to play, anyway :-) This game owes a great deal to Casey Dugan, who was my project partner for the Board Edition of it, and, of course, to Eric Klopfer, whose class it was for.
The Game of Fish and Men is a game for 2-6 players. The basic premise is that each player represents a school of fish trying to make their way through a world bothered by pollution and fishermen. The game's interesting feature is that it is a board game, with a computer managed board. Part of the purpose of creating it was to find out how effective a format that is. Feel free to send me feedback on the subject :-) If you would like to play The Game of Fish and Men, you should do the following things:
- Download the Rules (PDF or DVI), and familiarize yourself and all the players with them.
- Either
- Get two decks of playing cards of the same size
- Either
- Play the game as a Java Applet (requires Java)
- Download Starlogo (Starlogo requires Java to work),
- Download the game's Starlogo Project File, and
- open it in Starlogo to play.

A successful consultative conference was held at the Institute of Education in July 2006 to discuss plans for the MCS4 survey at age 7.
Fieldwork for MCS4 finished in December 2008. Over 13,800 families with over 14,000 cohort children took part in the age of 7 survey. More than 8800 families participated in England, over 2000 in Wales, over 1600 in Scotland and 1300 in Northern Ireland.
Ninety percent of families who took part in all the previous MCS surveys (9 months and ages 3 and 5) also participated at Age 7.
The data have now been deposited at the UK Data Archive.

The United States District Court for the District of New Jersey has held that a genuine issue of material fact existed as to whether a demand letter from an employee constituted a claim under an employment practices liability policy. MedPointe Healthcare Inc. v. AXIS Reinsurance Co., 2009 WL 901959 (D.N.J. March 31, 2009). The court also held that the insurer was not entitled to summary judgment on the question whether the insured violated the policy's notice provision by failing timely to provide notice of a charge letter from the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC).
In October 2003, a terminated employee sent a letter to her employer requesting reinstatement. The former employee later brought a charge before the EEOC in connection with her termination. In August 2004, the EEOC sent a letter to the employer to notify it of the charge. In September 2004, the EEOC sent a letter to the former employee and the employer, notifying them that the EEOC was closing its file on the charge because the employee failed to respond. The letter noted that the employee had the right to sue within 90 days of the dismissal. The former employee subsequently filed suit against the employer, effecting service in April 2005. Six days later, the employer notified its insurer of the claim under two employment practices liability insurance policies. The policies provided coverage for claims made and reported between September 28, 2003 and September 28, 2005 and required that notice be provided to the insurer "as soon as practicable" and, in any event, no later than 60 days after the expiration of the policy period.
The insurer sought summary judgment in the resulting coverage litigation, arguing that the employer failed timely to provide it with notice of the demand letter or the EEOC charge letter. The insurer contended that the demand letter met the policy's definition of a "claim" because it constituted a written demand against an insured for monetary damages or other relief. The court held, however, that genuine issues of material fact existed because, while the letter requested reinstatement, it did not request damages or suggest that a claim for discrimination was being made. With respect to the EEOC charge letter, the court agreed that the letter constituted a claim made in August 2004 when the employer received the letter. In light of the follow-up communication from the EEOC stating that it was closing its file on the matter, however, the court held that there were genuine issues of material fact as to whether the employer was required to report the existence of the August 2004 letter and whether the employer's notice to the insurer of the lawsuit in April 2004 satisfied the policy's "as soon as practicable" notice requirement. Accordingly, the court concluded that the insurer was not entitled to summary judgment.

Dr. Christopher Lillo is a respected Toms River, New Jersey, dentist, who has practiced with the Oak Ridge Dental Group, PA, for more than two decades. Experienced in periodontal treatment, Dr. Christopher Lillo emphasizes the importance of proper at-home teeth and gum care among patients.
The basics elements of teeth and gum care include brushing, flossing, rinsing, and eating the right foods. Brushing should be performed twice each day and, ideally, following each meal. If possible, wait 30 minutes after eating to brush, as this gives any enamel softened by acid in the food time to fully re-harden.
The acids in play are created by bacteria within the plaque coming into contact with food particles. If the acids are not addressed, they can result in cavities. Brushing effectively removes plaque, which is the film of bacteria around the teeth. The key to proper brushing is to position the brush at a 45 degree angle relative to the gum line and using a small circular motion to reach every accessible crevice. Avoid pressing too hard, as this can cause gum damage and lead to other types of infection. Before or after brushing, thoroughly floss as a way of dislodging hidden food particles stuck between the teeth.

Condor bicycles have been ridden to World Championship gold medals, ridden in the Tour de France, and have been the choice of many figures in the public limelight, ranging from judges to rock stars. Few brands can claim to have their bikes ridden by cycling household names including Tom Simpson and Bradley Wiggins.
2018 will mark the eleventh season in a row that Condor has sponsored a British UCI registered team and the partnership with JLT will underline the team's significant commitment to the future of British cycling, with the team continuing to focus on its overarching goal of developing young British talent.
Grant Young director of Condor Cycles re-iterated his support of young talented British riders and the domestic racing. Both activities have been part of Condor Cycles key values since the company's inception in 1948
"This team is a great foundation for young riders to gain experience on an international stage and it is great that Condor is able to continue to contribute to British cycle sport."
"The team will remain a testing and proving ground for our new technologies and bicycle models, our Super Acciaio and new Leggero SL model are direct result of rider-based research."
Condor makes its framesets by hand at their facility in Italy. Condor retails both bicycles and framesets and has stockists in Britain, Europe, Canada and Asia.

President Trump's claim that his predecessor bugged Trump Tower during the election has sent the media into fits, wondering where on earth he could've gotten such an idea. But it's all-too-obvious why Trump would be suspicious.
Saturday, the prez tweeted that ex-President Barack Obama had "my 'wires tapped' in Trump Tower just before the victory. Nothing found. This is McCarthyism!" Sunday, he called for a congressional probe.
The anti-Trump press was apoplectic, calling the claim "unsupported." And it's true that Trump didn't detail any evidence to back up the charge.
But let's face it: From the day Trump won election, his foes have waged a by-any-means-necessary campaign to overturn the results.
Officials (likely Obama-era holdovers) have broken the law and leaked what they hoped would be damaging info. Groups tied to Obama have stirred up angry protests against Trump and other Republicans.
The New York Times reported Obama's staff purposely spread information throughout the administration that could hurt Trump, though they said the goal was to make sure the info wasn't buried.

The Great Awakening is happening. You see evidence of this every day now. Your oppressors are anxiously searching for new ways to keep mankind under control. Though they have technology that is far superior to anything known to ordinary people, it does not matter what they try, it will fail. 2012 sees the end of their reign of terror and abuse of mankind. Evidence of how TV is used to control the information is being researched. People are shocked when they see for themselves the extent of this control. Everything, from the moment you were born, has been carefully designed to control your mind and your live. Those bloodlines have a lot to answer for: they stole all that was yours by right. The ancient knowledge that was hidden will be returned to you. We are finding ways to guide you to it.
The Vatican colluded with the banksters and so a great deal is hidden there. It is because of this that your world is in turmoil. The evil they unleashed on your world is responsible for all the wars, famines and suffering. Because they controlled your minds, it was easy to control everything else. You are all brainwashed, some to a lesser degree than others. Religions were created for this very purpose. You have only to look around you to see how successful this has been.
As people are beginning to see through all this and they look at those that they were encouraged to laugh at and ridicule, they now see these people in a new light. They see them as the brave souls that they are. They stood for truth. It is indeed a brave soul who stands up for truth in your world today. Join them and assist them in spreading the word of truth. Look deep into your own soul for the real truth. You will find it there. It has always been there, but because you have been controlled and not given the skills to find it for yourselves, you allowed others to tell you what to think and what to do. You bought into a monitory system that is so corrupt that it has made slaves of you, ever since.
Help is on its way. You can see, each evening before the stars come out, the space ships, all ready and waiting for the opportunity to come to your rescue. It is very reassuring for you to be able to actually see that they are there. They will not abandon you. They are familiar with everything on Earth: how it works and how to replace all that has been removed to prevent you from developing as you should have done.
My dear, this weekend, you will learn of the importance of Sacred Geometry. How it
is used in mind-
You – yes, all of you – are the freedom fighters who will free mankind. This, you
happily chose to carry out, before you returned to Earth. Sadly, you will have to
endure many more FALSE FLAG scenarios. All these are carried out to create fear and
to confuse. They even kill their own when they think they can profit from it or gain
sympathy for their so-
It is time for the Cabal to leave planet Earth and for mankind to live in peace.
We are preventing and exposing as much as we can. It is a team effort on this side of life also. Together, we will defeat the Cabal. The advantage that we have is that we see and hear everything. We read their thoughts and we know their plans the moment they are thought of. They cannot hide from us.
You will be busy this weekend, learning about Sacred Geometry. It is very interesting, my dear, and most beneficial to understand and use at all times. I will be there, enjoying it with you. It is very important ancient knowledge that needs to be understood and used by all.
We have much to do. So let's get on with it. Your adoring, Monty.

Herman Cain, former CEO of Godfather's Pizza and Atlanta radio talk show host and syndicated columnist, officially announced his candidacy for the presidency Saturday.
At Atlanta's Centennial Olympic Park Saturday, Reuters reported he told supporters, "We are gonna take our country back."
The businessman has held executive positions at Coca Cola and Pillsbury, and served as the chairman of the Federal Reserve Bank in Kansas City, but has never been elected to public office. He ran for Georgia's open Senate seat in 2004, but lost in the primary.
Cain's current campaign slogan, according to his website, is "Let's get REAL."
A recent Gallup poll showed that Cain has only 29 percent name recognition among Republicans, but those who know him see him in a positive light: Cain enjoyed a positive intensity score of 24, higher than any of the other Republican candidates included in the poll, including Mitt Romney, Sarah Palin and Newt Gingrich, among others.
Cain posted an extended video announcing his candidacy on his official YouTube account. Watch it embedded below via YouTube.
