We're back with Keith Ogorek of the Author Learning Center to complete his series of steps to taking your writing game up a notch and becoming an author! If you missed Part 1 of the series, check that out before diving into Part 2.
All caught up? Let's get right into it then:
#4 Advice along the way.
The fourth thing you're going to need as you work toward your goal of publishing is advice. As I suggested, a plan is like GPS, and if you think about it, GPS gives you instructions along the way to make sure you reach your goal.
Turn left.
Take this exit.
The right information at the right time assures you will reach your destination. The same thing is true on your publishing journey. You will come to points where expert advice and encouragement will keep you on the right track and help you keep moving forward.
Writing and publishing and marketing are learned skills, so finding people and resources that can serve as the voice in your GPS is vital. Identify people and sources you can trust and listen to them. Seek out a small, trusted few rather than the opinion of the masses.
There are websites where you can seek out the opinion of the crowd, but I question how valuable that type of feedback can be. You could put your manuscript out there and have a hundred people comment. Fifty of them may think it's great and fifty may think it's terrible, but that doesn't really help you. So find a small, trusted group rather than the unvetted crowd.
Now, you can accomplish this a number of different ways. Depending on what community you're in, there might be local writing groups you can join. The Author Learning Center also gives you that opportunity to get feedback through your Author Circle if you have a book project. No matter how you do it, just don't try to take this journey alone.
#5 Persistence
The fifth thing you need to become an author is persistence. As the saying goes, it takes years to become an overnight success so persistence is really, really important. You will meet challenges and even face discouragement and rejection along the way, but you have to believe in yourself. You have to believe that you have something important to share with others. In fact, throughout history there are numerous of examples of well-known and successful authors being rejected multiple times before they were published.
Take L. M. Montgomery, author of Anne of Green Gables for example. Her series of books has been a must read for young people for decades. It's inspired by her own story growing up on Prince Edward Island. A number of years ago, I had a chance to visit the place where Anne of Green Gables was set.
In fact, Canada has turned the site into a national park. I was extremely impressed with how they created an experience for visitors, but one thing that really struck me was in her biography. She said she would have never been published had the post office not been in her uncle's home where she lived.
The reason why is because back then you would send a manuscript to a publisher, and if the publisher declined, they would send it back wrapped up in brown paper and tied in string. So Montgomery said that if she would have had to go into town and walk down the street holding that package, she would have been very embarrassed. However because the package came back to her uncle's house, it gave her the courage to continue to send it out. Eventually, a publisher picked up her books, and since then, they have gone on to sell millions of copies around the world.
She was persistent and it paid off.
More recent examples include Lisa Genova, Louise Hay, and James Patterson. Lisa wrote a book called Still Alice but could not find a publisher who was interested so she self-published with iUniverse. It was subsequently discovered by Simon and Schuster, who picked it up and it became a best seller and eventually a movie for which Julianne Moore won an Oscar. Lisa's persistence was demonstrated in that she self-published even when no publisher wanted it.
Louise Hay is another example. Louise founded the publisher Hay House when she was sixty years old. Sadly, Louise passed away in late 2017, but she has left a significant legacy in the life of people. She decided she had something to share that could really help people and largely helped create the category of Self Help. No publisher at the time would produce her books, so she first self-published and then started the company that continues on to this day.
He shared the details in an interview. "I worked my way through college. I had lots of night shifts, so I started reading like crazy. Then I started writing, and I found that I loved it. When I was twenty-six I wrote my first mystery, The Thomas Berryman Number, and it was turned down by, I don't know, thirty-one publishers. Then it won the Edgar for the best first novel. Go figure."
In each of these
#6 Accountability
A sixth thing every writer needs to become an author is accountability. This is an important one because without accountability most things don't get done. John Di Lemme suggests, "Accountability separates the wishers in life from the action-takers that care enough about their future to account for their daily actions."
In fact, the likelihood that you will transform your desires into reality increases tremendously if you share your written goals with a friend who believes in your ability to succeed. One author calls it having "a partner in believing." I think that is such a great phrase because that's what you need—someone who believes in your idea as much as you do.
Someone who believes you have something to say or share that is worth preserving and telling.
That's why, along with persistence, you need to be accountable and you need someone to keep you accountable. That way when you get discouraged or stuck, there is someone to help you stay focused on your milestones and goals.
#7 Encouragement
Writing a book takes time and can also include periods of self-doubt or discouragement. That's why you need someone to help you stay motivated when you may be ready to give up.
Even prolific authors like Stan Lee needed encouragement. Stan started Marvel Comics and has helped create some of the most well-known superheroes. At one point before he had made a name for himself, he was ready to give up. Like most salaried employees, he had bills and a mortgage, but at age forty writing action scenes became unfulfilling, and he wanted to quit. His wife told him to create a script that he found meaningful, and the rest is history.
So do not ever underestimate a well-timed word of encouragement. We all need them.
Information alone is not enough.
This truly is the best time to be an author because there is more opportunity to get published and more information for authors than ever before. But information alone is not enough to help you get to your goal. You need these seven things to transition from just writing to publishing:
- an idea
- a deadline
- a plan,
- timely, expert advice
- persistence,
- accountability
- encouragement
A GPS for your publishing journey
If you are looking for an easy way to have these elements available at your fingertips, I invite you to visit the Author Learning Center. There you will find a unique combination of expert advice, author-inspired tools, and a community to help you reach your publishing goals. www.authorlearningcenter.com

How to Choose the Color of Your Braces
Explore this Article Selecting a Color Keeping the Lowest Profile Article Summary Questions & Answers Related Articles
Braces become a part of your day-to-day appearance. They will become as much of part of your "style" as your shoes or your shirt. That is why picking a color can be so difficult. Do you have trouble deciding what color braces to get when you go to the orthodontist? If so, certain considerations may help you figure it out.
Part 1
Selecting a Color
1Look at a color wheel. Ask your orthodontist, or whoever is handling your braces, if they have a color wheel. A color wheel is a list of colors that you can use for braces. Do this before you get the braces so that you won't have to choose the colors on the spot.[1]
- Study the shades on the color wheel. Keep in mind that the colors will look a bit lighter on your braces.
- Look at a color wheel online if you get a chance. Type in "braces color wheel" in a search engine and look for an interactive color wheel that lets you put the colors onto a picture of a mouth with braces. Experiment with different colors you might want to wear. Keep in mind that the colors you find online might not be offered by your orthodontist.[2]
2Pick meaningful colors. You can pair colors together, so you could consider using your braces to make a statement of some sort. Consider different combinations of colors, such as: [3]
- Your national colors. Red, white, and blue for America; red, white, and green for Mexico, etc.
- Your school colors.
- Your favorite sports team's colors.
- Holiday colors. Red and green for Christmas; black and orange for Halloween, etc.
- Colors of the rainbow (not always available).
- Your favorite color(s).
3Pick colors that work well with your skin. Consider colors that work well with your natural skin type and/or hair. Your skin type and hair color will have a big impact on the way your braces look. Choose colors that will work well with you, not colors that will clash with your hair or your skin type. [4]
- Darker skin tones and hair colors might look good in gold, dark blue, turquoise, orange, anise green, pastel blue, fuchsia, pink, or violet, although colors may depend on the person.[5]
- Lighter skin tones and hair colors might look good in petrol blue, vermilion, bronze, caramel, salmon, green khaki, raspberry, bluish-red, plum, blue-green, and royal blue, although colors may depend on the person.[6]
4Pair your braces with your outfits. Consider colors that would work well with clothes you often wear. If your wardrobe features a lot of primary colors, getting braces in another primary color might be a good idea. If your clothes feature a lot of neon colors, getting braces in a neutral color (clear braces, for example) might be a good idea. Don't be afraid to think ahead! [7]
5Eliminate the "ugly" colors. Rule out unsatisfying colors, strange colors, or your least favorite colors. Braces in bands that are black can look like little pieces of food stuck in your teeth. White seems like it would be a great choice, but, in fact, makes teeth look more yellow. [8]
6Consider darker colors. Darker colors, such as dark purple and navy blue, make your teeth look whiter. So it may be wise to choose dark colors to offset from the natural color of your teeth.[9]
7Notify your orthodontist of your choice. Wait for your orthodontist to finish applying your braces then admire your braces in a mirror. Don't worry if you don't love the color pattern immediately. It may grow on you. If it doesn't, you can change colors the next time you see your orthodontist.[10]
8Practice regular upkeep. The color of your braces really doesn't matter if you don't keep them clean. Keep your braces looking great by practicing good oral hygiene. Oral hygiene means taking care of your mouth, gums, and teeth. [11]
- Brush your teeth after each meal. If you're at school, consider bringing a small portable toothbrush with you to brush after snack and lunch. Try to hit all the teeth in your mouth; consider using a timer to time yourself so that you end up brushing for long enough. [12]
- Floss your teeth at least once a day. Flossing gets between the teeth where the toothbrush won't reach, promoting healthier gums. Flossing with braces, however, can be a real pain. Use a floss threader to get the floss in between the gums, and then work in between each pair of teeth. [13]
- Use mouthwash at least once a day. Mouthwash will help kill all the harmful bacteria that live in your mouth and contribute to tooth decay. Swishing mouthwash is easy, quick, and gives you great breath. [14]
9Consider changing the color. Change the color(s) of your bands every time you get your braces tightened. If you end up not liking the colors you chose, don't fret. You can change the color of your braces every time you have an appointment to get them tightened. Most orthodontists schedule appointments like this every 6 to 8 weeks.[15]
Part 2
Keeping the Lowest Profile
1Ask about Invisalign. Depending on the problem your braces are intended to fix, you may be able to choose Invisalign braces. These are clear trays that fit over your teeth, making it appear as if you are not wearing braces at all. If your goal is to eliminate the appearance of your braces, these are the ideal choice.[16]
2Select ceramic braces. Ceramic braces work the same way as metal braces but are designed to blend naturally with the teeth, using a tooth-colored ceramic and clear rubber bands. Next to Invisalign braces, which may not be possible for you, these are the next best option for keeping a low profile.[17]
3Select clear braces. Metal braces can be paired with clear rubber bands, minimizing the appearance of the braces against your teeth. If your goal is to minimize the appearance of your braces, you may choose no color at all rather than trying to select a creative or personalized color scheme.[18]
4Avoid white braces. White might seem like the obvious choice, since your teeth are white. However, white braces not only make your teeth look yellow; they also get dirty fast. Especially if you drink dark drinks, like cola or coffee, white colors could change quickly to a less satisfying off-white.[19]
5Rule out gold or yellow. Yellow and gold braces can intensify the natural yellow color of teeth. So try to avoid yellow or gold unless your teeth are vibrantly white.[20]
Community Q&A
QuestionDo I get to choose between metal, ceramic, and rubber bands?Community AnswerSometimes, but not always. It will depend on what your braces are trying to fix. However, you can always ask your orthodontist what the different options are and how much they cost. If you have a specific preference, ask about that in particular.
QuestionI am a girl, so would green look too boyish?Community AnswerNo, it wouldn't look too boyish. Choosing the color of your braces is about which color works best for you (something that goes well with your skin color, the color of outfits you usually where, or simply something you like).
QuestionCan I have my own colors and change them at home?Community AnswerNo. Your colors can only be changed at the orthodontist.
QuestionCan you put more than two colors on your braces at once?Community AnswerIf your orthodontist puts something called a power chain (where it is a continuous band connected on all the brackets) on both sets of your braces, you can choose a maximum of two colors. One color for the top, one for the bottom. You can also have the same color for both power chains. If your orthodontist puts separate colored bands on each bracket, you can get all bands the same color, in patterns, random colors or a rainbow. If you get a power chain on one set and separate bands on the other, you can only choose one color for the power chain, but multiple colors for the separate bands, since they are not attached.
QuestionDo yellow braces make your teeth look yellow?Community AnswerThey might do if you have pearl white teeth, and just having the shade of yellow there might cast an impression of yellowed teeth. It's up to you!
QuestionDoes the orthodonist give you extra bands for your braces, so that you can change it every time you want?Community AnswerUnfortunately, the orthodontist doesn't give you extra and you can't take them off.
QuestionWill metallic gold look good, or will it intensify yellow teeth?Community AnswerThe gold will look fine if you have perfectly white teeth. However, it will intensify the color of yellowed teeth.
QuestionWhy didn't I get to pick a color?Community AnswerSometimes you just can't pick the color. It's like that in some places.
QuestionWould blue be a good color to pick for my braces?Community AnswerAs it says in the article, it depends on your skin type. If you are dark skinned, then a dark blue would be good; if you are white skinned, then a royal blue would look great. But it's your choice, if you are dark skinned and want to pick royal blue or something like that, then it might look good too.
QuestionI just got colored braces today. When do I get new colors?Community AnswerYou will get colors at your next appointment. Orthodontists sometimes do not put colors on the first time.
- Choose whichever color makes you feel good and reflects your style!
- Make sure you feel good about your choice. Don't choose something just because someone else wants you to pick it.
- If you really can't decide, try bright blue. It looks good on anybody.
- Colors may fade, so pick a deeper shade than what you want.
- Consider going with glow in the dark braces. In ordinary light, they look clear, so it may look like you have no bands.
- Get a color that really compliments your eyes.
- Don't pick bright red - it will look like you have lipstick on your teeth!
- Ask your orthodontist for clear braces. They cost a little more than traditional braces, but your braces will be less noticeable. The only problem is they can get stained (by consuming something strongly colored like Gatorade) or go yellow.
- Don't pick white, it will soon turn yellow.
- Don't pick black, it will make your teeth look rotten from a distance
- You could go through your clothes, you can figure out which colors go well with your clothing.
- Lighter colors like yellow and white will make your teeth look more yellow and darker colors like black etc. will make your teeth look better and whiter.
- Don't choose white or clear if you don't brush. They can be stained yellow and it will make your teeth look gross.
- Be careful when choosing ceramic or clear braces as they are very fragile and can crack and splinter easily.

Article SummaryX
To choose the color of your braces, consider choosing colors that are meaningful to you, like your school colors, national colors, or even just your favorite color. You can also go with colors that work well with your skin tone. For example, gold, turquoise, and orange can look great with darker skin tones, while royal blue, bronze, and blue-green can look good with lighter skin tones. Just avoid black or white braces since black can make it look like you have food stuck in your teeth and white can make your teeth look yellow. To learn how to take care of your braces, scroll down!

Five things we learned in Serie A
Here are five things we learned in Italy's Serie A at the weekend:
Higuain turns hunger on its head
Gonzalo Higuain's haters must have enjoyed a cheeky laugh upon hearing the Argentine describe the ambition of Juventus in a post-match television interview on Saturday. "They've won the league five years in a row but they still have a crazy hunger to win," said Higuain, whose 14th minute winner in a 1-0 defeat of Roma sent the champions seven points clear of the Giallorossi. Reports claiming Higuain is overweight usually resurface after the summer holidays. Indeed, the Juve striker's tendency to have a few extra mouthfuls, as well as the many goal chances he has missed for the national side, led disgruntled Argentina fans to launch a phone app last August designed to mock the France-born striker. The aim of 'Pipita on Fire' -- Pipita is Higuain's nickname -- is to get Higuain past a series of defenders and score the chances he missed in the 2014 World Cup final against Germany, as well as in the 2015 and 2016 Copa America finals against Chile. All while dodging food being thrown at him.
Napoli are best, says Mihajlovic
When it comes to league titles, no team in Serie A has even come lose to beating the 32-trophy haul of defending champions Juventus. Napoli have only two to their name (1987, 1990), thanks in large part to club legend Diego Maradona. But for Torino coach Sinisa Mihajlovic, Napoli play the best football in Italy. After a 5-3 loss to the Azzurri that could have been heavier despite Dries Mertens hitting four for the San Paolo giants, Mihajlovic -- whose side lost 3-1 to Juve in the city derby last week -- poured the plaudits on Maurizio Sarri's southern side: "Napoli has certainly made a big impression on me in terms of their game and everything else they're doing. I don't know if Napoli are better than the others (teams), but they certainly play better." Napoli's 10th win of the season closed the gap on Juventus to eight points.
Games for the boys, Inter ?
Watching the goings-on at Inter Milan recently has been like a Christmas pantomime: plenty of drama, loads of laughs but very little to write home about. At the weekend the agent of out-of-favour Montenegrin striker Stevan Jovetic, Fali Ramadani, claimed the club is so unprofessional that certain players have a significant say in who gets to play. Given some of their performances this season, some might be inclined to agree: the Nerazzurri beat Sassuolo 1-0 on Sunday but remain 15 points behind Juventus. Jovetic has been left off all of the club's squads and played only 67 minutes so far this season, but Inter sporting director Piero Ausilio hit back: "If three coaches haven't used him, it's undoubtedly due to technical and tactical reasons."Â
Niang drops down penalty-taking order
M'Baye Niang has been unceremoniously moved aside as one of Milan's penalty-takers, and the towering French striker has little room for complaint: he missed two penalties in succession, one of which came after an on-field spat with teammate Gianluca Lapadula over who would step up to the spot, prior to Saturday's scoreless stalemate with Atalanta. Milan coach Vincenzo Montella said Friday Niang would "no longer" be the team's penalty-taker, although he never was the number one choice anyway. Colombian striker Carlos Bacca is Milan's usual marksman from the spot. Until he regains match fitness following a recent return from injury, Niang will have to wait his turn.
Pescara's puny players not big enough
The coach of Serie A strugglers Pescara, Massimo Oddo, usually gives credit where it is due, and amid a 14-game winless run it's usually been given to the opposition. But after a 3-0 home defeat to Bologna on Sunday, he tried to blame their dismal campaign on his comparatively puny and inexperienced players. Oddo says his players are so disadvantaged they never play high or long balls during games. "We always keep the ball on the ground because we just can't do otherwise," said Oddo. "We have a lot of players who have never played at this level, so they're lacking an element of mental strength. If I had players with a bit more physical power we could change the way we play. But we're Pescara and our economical potential is limited."

Talon is the software that I use to code by voice (I also use an onscreen keyboard, but that's for another post). It's Mac-only for now, but it's coming to Windows and Linux very soon.
Don't let the name fool you. CSS-Tricks is more than just CSS (the styling language of the web). It covers beginner-level to expert-level topics in web development. In my opinion, it shines in its ability to deliver practical, insightful intermediate-level topics.
For anyone just starting out, you will undoubtedly become familiar with CSS-Tricks as it often holds the top spots on search results pages for common web dev searches. This is because CSS-Tricks offers an enormous amount of quality content, including in-depth guides, a library of helpful code snippets, and a full-blown CSS reference with explanation and examples.

I know this isn't very "wordless," but last night I was going through old pictures and found a lot of Xena that I had forgotten about. So many memories came rushing back…I still miss her so much, and the pictures reawakened that ache in my heart for her. She died in April of this year after being diagnosed with Lymphoma in February. Xena had always been the picture of perfect health, and miniature schnauzers can live to be between 14-16 years old, sometimes older if you're lucky. I thoroughly expected her to live to be at least 15, so when she started getting sick right before turning 13, it was hard for me to comprehend.
It was such a sudden thing – one day, I noticed the sides of her neck were crazy swollen. Took her to the vet, they aspirated the lymph nodes, and confirmed lymphoma. Rather than put her through the suffering (and no guarantee of survival or longevity) of chemotherapy at her already advanced age, we opted to treat her with steroids and various supplements in the hopes it would slow down the growth/spread of the cancer. I talked to vet techs and friends who knew of dogs and cats that lived with lymphoma for 6 months to a year or more before succumbing. Xena only made it about a month and a half.
Maybe one day (when I can write about her without bursting into tears like I am now), I will share stories of how smart, funny, and amazingly awesome she was. A true Warrior Schnauzer that I will love and cherish forever.

I just wanted to post a quick note about the new page I added here… It's about a nice program I designed that allows every touhou fan to read more conveniently all these wonderful fanworks !
It's on there.
I hope you'll like it !
Touhou litterature
Heya Touhou fans,
Touhou's universe has grown larger and larger, as ZUN-sensei kept working on each game… So it's no surprise that new touhou written works appeared. The following links are what I have found so far.
As for now, here's what I've found :
- Touhou Bougetsushou : Silent Sinner in Blue (東方儚月): An official webcomic written by ZUN and illustrated by Aki Eda. The story is thrilling, and of course the characters are very well depicted in this adventure. Reimu and some other Gensokyo inhabitants got involved in a big adventure centered on some events concerning the Moon. What is Yukari planning ? And how will this affair evolve ?
- Life of Maid : A nice webcomic mainly centered on Sakuya's little life at the Scarlet Mansion, and her everyday relations with occasional guests and events.
- Touhou : Tag Dream : After reading some manga, Yukari gave everyone the idea of battling in… a catch tournament. Weird, but many characters are featured ! And everyone is correctly depicted.
I hope you'll enjoy these as much as I do !

Thought I'd throw out the question of who amongst Milsurps members is a reasonably serious Snider collector. I think it would be nice to see more Snider discussion in our favorite forum but maybe there's not enough critical mass? And please, don't tell me to go to British Militaria Forums- there are duplicate forums for every type of firearm.
So, if anyone's interested, just a brief mention of your interest in the Snider, maybe a comment about your favorite or most interesting example and whether or not you've gotten into reloading for them.
I will lead off- I now have a small collection with 2 and 3 band rifles but only a single carbine. My favorite is an excellent 2-band Mk I* that may have been some sort of initial troop trials rifle and was converted in 1866. Close second is a late commercial BSA cavalry carbine made for India. I am reloading courtesy of a Lee minie mould given to me by browningautorifle.

Kaworu Nagisa
This article has many issues. Please help fix them or discuss these issues on the talk page.
|Kaworu Nagisa
|Neon Genesis Evangelion character
|17th Angel
Kaworu Nagisa is a character from Neon Genesis Evangelion. He appears in episode 24 of the television show, sent to Nerv by Seele in order to replace the pilot of Unit 02, Asuka Langley Soryu, whose synchronization ratio has fallen too low for her to pilot her Evangelion. Kaworu is both the Fifth Child and the 17th Angel. He and Shinji Ikari enjoy a brief friendship, in which Kaworu tells Shinji that he loves him and that he was probably born to meet him. Soon after Kaworu is discovered as the 17th Angel, however, Shinji is forced to kill Kaworu so that humanity can survive. Kaworu's last words are "Thank you. I'm glad I met you" (to Shinji), and in the aftermath of Kaworu's death, Shinji states that he loved him too, and that Kaworu should have been the one to live.
Kaworu Nagisa reappeared in the film End of Evangelion to first weaken Unit 01's AT field so that Instrumentality could commence, then later in Shinji's mind along with Rei Ayanami to help Shinji choose the decision to reject Instrumentality in favor of individual thought and form, even if it meant having to deal with pain again.
Manga appearance[change | change source]
Kaworu Nagisa is portrayed much differently in the Neon Genesis Evangelion manga. While the original series depicted Kaworu as selfless, eloquent and loving, the Kaworu in the manga is awkward and invasive. Even with a new characterization, however, Kaworu still displays attraction towards Shinji, even kissing Shinji in an attempt to stop Shinji's hyperventilation, and verbally wondering what it would be like if Shinji "came to love [him]". When Kaworu's nature as an Angel is revealed, he again forces Shinji to kill him, saying that this way, he will not be able to forget him.
Neon Genesis Evangelion New Theatrical Version[change | change source]
In the Neon Genesis Evangelion New Theatrical Version (also known as Rebuild of Evangelion), Kaworu plays a slightly bigger role. He first appears near the end of 1.0: You are (not) alone, waking up in a coffin on the moon. He then stands up and looks to the earth, commenting that "the Third hasn't changed", and that he is looking forward to meeting him (Shinji Ikari).
In 2.0: You can (not) advance, Gendo Ikari and Kozo Fuyutsuki visit Seele's moon base to observe the construction of Unit 06, and see Kaworu sitting atop Unit 06's finger, wearing only pants. Kaworu seems to address Gendo as "Father", although it is unknown whether he meant it literally or metaphorically. Kaworu is also briefly seen putting on a plugsuit, still on the moon, while Mari Illustrious Makinami gets ready to battle Zeruel in the Geofront. His last appearance in 2.0 is at the very end of the movie, after the credits roll. What is presumably a Lance of Longinus is hurled down towards earth and ends up impaling Unit 01, halting Third Impact. Kaworu is then seen descending towards earth in Unit 06, with an uncharacteristically angry look on his face. He promises that this time, he will bring Shinji happiness.
In the next movie, 3.0: You can (not) redo, Kaworu plays a much larger role. As Asuka and Shinji in Unit 01 fall down to earth, Kaworu says that he has been waiting for Shinji. He is next seen playing piano in Nerv HQ, after Shinji is brought there by Unit 00. Shinji's father later informs Shinji that he is to copilot a new Evangelion unit, Unit 13, alongside Kaworu (not saying Kaworu's name). Kaworu then calls out to Shinji, and requests that he play piano. He is hesitant at first, but with Kaworu's guidance the two are able to play a duet together quiet beautifully, despite Shinji's claim that he could not play. Kaworu introduces himself, and tells him that they are both children bound by fate. Kaworu and Shinji continue to play piano together (which indirectly helps them synchronize to activate Unit 13 together later on), and come to see each other as friends, Kaworu commenting that he "really was born to meet" him - an almost exact quote from his role in the original series. When Shinji expresses his fear at what happened in the 14 years he was gone, Kaworu shows him the destruction of near-Third Impact, emphasizing that it was all brought about by Shinji, but also assuring him that "there is always hope" and later telling Shinji that together, they can fix everything with the two spears in Central Dogma.
Prior to piloting Unit 13, Kaworu removes the DSS choker from Shinji's neck and places it on his own so that Shinji will not have to fear death while they activate Unit 13. After descending to Central Dogma in order to retrieve the spears, however, Kaworu realizes that something is off. He urges Shinji not to take the spears, but Shinji shuts off his controls and removes them anyways. Shortly after this, Fourth Impact starts and Unit 13 awakens. The DSS choker begins to activate, and Shinji is driven to despair with the knowledge that he caused Fourth Impact and that Kaworu, perhaps his only friend at this point, is about to die.
In spite of everything, Kaworu claims that it was he who was the trigger for Fourth Impact, because he became the 13th Angel. Before dying, Kaworu apologizes to Shinji for not being able to bring him happiness and promises that they will meet again. The collar then detonates, leaving Shinji near-comatose, similar to his state at the start of End of Evangelion.

Learning how to sew in high school
In high school, the girls had to learn how to sew. We first started out with an apron, which I found pretty useless as even my granny did never wear aprons in the kitchen. The next project was a night gown. I bought a fabric that also could be worn as a dress on the beach and on vacation as I did not like the idea of wearing a night gown. Nevertheless, despite I did not like what we had to sew I liked to be able to sew. As a teenager I sewed at least one dirndl type skirt, it is kind of a full skirt each summer like those shown in the posts at the links.
Sewing allows customized fit
I stopped sewing as an undergraduate as I did not have a sewing machine in the dorms. I took up sewing again when I was a graduate student when my mom got a new sewing machine and she gave her old one to me. Back then, I mainly produced pencil skirts as I always had difficulties finding some that fit perfectly. I stopped sewing again when I was working on my second PhD. When I immigrated to the United States, I left the sewing machine behind as the voltage and frequency of the European and American electricity differ. I got a new sewing machine here, but mainly used it for alterations rather than producing clothes. In the photos above, my activity was to remove the pocket that was on the gingham Carhartt shirt, just because I like plain shirts.
It seems that with time being so precious and tight, and good fabrics and cuts for sewing being more expensive than buying high quality clothes, or even customized clothes, sewing will become a lost art and seamstresses will become artists.
Casual Friday summer LOTD
I wore this casual work outfit with gingham shirt and white denim boyfriend jeans for Casual Friday. The light colors scream summer. The button-down shirt looks professional. The white denim looks more polished than washed indigo, but less formal than dress pants. I like my BF with high heels for adding a feminine vibe. The jeans play down the girlish vibe of the gingham pattern.
Do you still sew some clothes? If so, what type of clothes do you sew? Let me know, I am curious.

But what exactly sets it apart from the others? Are fans missing the point of this piece of the universe or is the show simply not delivering? Social media reviews tend to lean negative for this series but is it misplaced? We shall explore it.
So, let's get this monkey smoking…
THE SYNOPSIS from TVGuide.com
Season 2, Episode 1
October 13, 2016
Out of Time
Season 2 begins with Dr. Nate Heywood, an unconventional historian, making a shocking discovery. Nate then seeks out Oliver Queen for help to find the scattered Legends. Once reunited, they try to protect Albert Einstein from being kidnapped before the Nazis destroy New York City with a nuclear bomb. Meanwhile, Ray notices that Sara has a mission of her own, which leads them both to face her nemesis, Damien Darhk.
Season 2, Episode 2
October 20, 2016
The Justice Society of America
The Legends travel to Nazi-occupied Paris and are surrounded by the Justice Society of America. They discover a time aberration that threatens the JSA, but the JSA doesn't want their help. Meanwhile, Nate tries to prove he should be part of the team.
If you walked through the other shows with me, you know that those shows follow what I have called the Arrow template (which is laid out in a column her on site called How to Build a Successful Superhero TV Drama) and rely heavily on thematic storytelling in parallel characters.
If there is any of those rules followed with LoT, then they are very subtle indeed. Instead, the Legends of Tomorrow creative and cast have chosen a much more linear style of storytelling relying heavily on DC expanded universe of lesser but fan favorite characters and the time travel itself to set and convey the narrative for this more action-packed show.
But what is stranger about the show still is how it feels distinctly out of joint with the other series on The CW but yet it facilitates (more than any other show) the interconnectivity of the universe. A perfect example is that we see Oliver Queen, Damien Dahrk and Eobard Thawne all play significant roles in the Legends season opener – crossing over Flash and Arrow with systematic precision while letting the main plot be the ride.
In fact, it is the approach to the narrative that alienates viewers to some degree because the other shows are so full of heart built by the thematic approach which demands viewers invest emotionally through empathy. While each character shares the theme in their own way, Flash and Arrow, Supergirl and even Gotham find a way to make you relate. Like with many shows that rely more heavily on action, some of the depth here of the other series are lost – and replaced with a straightforward complexity in the plot mechanisms. You see, when dealing with time travel especially, it becomes necessary to leave theme understated and emotionally suppressed to some degree because clarity is the most necessary of byproducts.
The absolute genius of Legends is that the payoff happens at the same time as the setup. The complex plot substitutes for the empathy so that the action and the "is that who I think it is?" Easter egg factor actually are characters of their own. Legends is far more in the vein of a Babylon 5 narrative than a Flash narrative.
The introduction of the worst villains from Arrow and Flash immediately sets the threat level to alpha and preserving history makes the stakes at an all-time high each and every episode. The removal of Captain Cold and Rip Hunter are glaring holes missing in the emotional makeup of the team but the addition of Nate Heywood (Commander Steel) will work well as a suitable replacement for Rip. But without Hawkgirl and Cold it still feels empty. But the promises of adventures to come and the full appearance of the JSA make up for those to some degree. The JSA were portrayed realistically and wonderfully except for Stargirl and Dr. Midnight getting virtually no real screen time.
But just because the themes are subtler, more simple doesn't mean they aren't there. In the openers, it is clear that the theme is what makes a leader? What makes a team? The thee is explored in a straightforward comparison between the Legends and the JSA. You do not really experience this with all the characters simultaneously but through two characters Jackson and Stein.
Legends of Tomorrow's opening for season two has set the stage for a complex and exciting adventure, but risks convoluted and nonsensical history if done wrong. It seems to me that the cast and creative team at CW is using kids gloves and is relying on the intricate plots including time travel for the narrative rather than relying on theme.
But the truth is that Legends is still missing its voice It is still finding itself and I believe the journey will both satisfy critics and add to the depth that is the Arrowverse. Join me next week.

I looked at dozens of front bumpers while I was working on my XJ build. I don't need a rock crawling bumper where I live, but I did need a good brush guard. This one is very impressive. It contours around the front of your XJ, the steel is thick and powdercoated with a textured matte black finish. It weighs around 86 or 88 lbs. It's a direct bolt-on replacement for your stock XJ front bumper, but if you don't get the reinforcement bracket kit, you'll need to have some washers handy to shim it up, about 1/4" on each side. Overall, I'm very happy with it. It looks awesome and keeps fallen tree limbs off my headlights and grill.

#AqalOverShakal: Why is society suffocating me?

I have 80% male friends with whom I can just be myself and say "Aur jani, chai scene on?". At least they create less drama in my life. I know how the clutch and gear works in a car and I am pretty quick at learning all the technical stuff (call me when your car gets too hot to handle). I am against the idea of sitting in front of aunties who expect ...Read Full Post

Top-seeded Ferrer, Johnson advance to final in Vienna
VIENNA (AP) Top-seeded David Ferrer beat Gael Monfils of France 7-6 (5), 7-5 at the Erste Bank Open on Saturday to reach his fifth final of the season.
Ferrer will play Steve Johnson of the United States for the title. The 47th-ranked American beat Ernests Gulbis of Latvia 6-3, 7-6 (4) to advance to his maiden ATP final.
The eighth-ranked Ferrer, who is 4-0 in finals this season, is after his 26th career title. Last year he was beaten by Andy Murray in the final here.
Ferrer and Johnson have not played each other before. The American has a 0-9 record against top-10 players.
The first set between Ferrer and Monfils went with serve before the Spaniard won the tiebreaker by converting his fourth set point.
Monfils then allowed the only break of the game after hitting three straight double-faults at 5-5 in the second set. Ferrer converted his first match point in the next game.
After losing three semifinals in his career, the 25-year-old Johnson became the first American to reach the final here since Pete Sampras, who went on to win the title in 1998.
Johnson, who had 12 aces, led Gulbis 6-3, 4-3 when he lost serve on the only break point he faced in the entire match. He closed out the win on his second match point in the tiebreaker.
This story has been corrected to show that Pete Sampras was the last American player to win the Vienna tournament in 1998.

Victoria Adams - Teacher of The Danielle Collins Face Yoga Method
What was your overall opinion of the training?
I thought the one-on-one training was excellent, as I was able to learn in a relaxed environment whilst working within a structured training plan. The course covered all aspects of Face Yoga as a subject, as well as the approach towards teaching it. I especially enjoyed the detailed study of the bones of the skull and muscles of the face, which was made incredibly easy to grasp considering the subject matter. There was always time for questions (great or small), and plenty of time was given to prepare for the practical and written assessments. Oh, and we managed to fit in the Upper and Lower Face Workouts twice – my skin was glowing by the end of the day, sans make-up!
What was the most important thing you learned from the training?
I think the most important thing I have got out of the training is gaining a better understanding of the practice, which has helped me to improve my articulation and instruction in future classes. The training showed me how malleable Face Yoga is as a practice, in that it involves acupressure techniques, massage, relaxation and wellbeing as well as the more obvious facial exercises.
What was your favourite thing about the training?
I can't decide whether I most enjoyed the double facial workout, or learning about the bones and muscles of the face – something so relevant/important to us all, yet something we know very little about.
If you were to recommend the training to a friend, what would you say?
We should all have a sense of responsibility to our personal practice (and the health of our own skin!) as well as to the wellbeing of our clients. The Danielle Collins Face Yoga Teacher Training is an excellent course which offers a method to help keep you looking (and feeling) better, and a way to make a living from it, particularly in conjunction with other therapies. I would recommend this course even if it's not to teach but just for our own personal practice.
Do you plan on using your training with clients. If so, how?
I plan to incorporate my training in Face Yoga into my current yoga one-to-ones. As I build up my knowledge and confidence teaching Face Yoga, I would like to hold group classes and workshops in my local area. (I'm thinking Tupperware-style Face Yoga parties!)

Aura strong conjuration and necromancy (evil) CL 20th; Slot weapon; Price —; Weight 2 lbs.
Deskari's Tooth is a +6 anarchic unholy dagger that automatically casts soul bind whenever it is used to slay a foe, provided no soul is currently stored in the blade. A soul of any power can be stored in the blade in this manner, but only one soul at a time. If the dagger's wielder is slain while a soul is contained in Deskari's Tooth, the soul is instantly consumed and the effect or attack that would normally have slain the wielder is instead negated. If Deskari's Tooth is used to perform a coup de grace on a lawful good creature, it can be used to cast lesser planar binding. If the lawful good creature has more than 11 Hit Dice, the dagger can instead be used to cast planar binding, and if the creature has more than 17 Hit Dice, it can instead be used to cast greater planar binding.
Deskari's Tooth must be used by a paladin to commit suicide, so that the paladin's soul becomes bound to the blade. If that soul is later used by a demon to prevent death, the dagger shatters upon preventing that death.
