I have used Great impression stamp(the flower one- not sure what it's called), some DCWV cards,pink ribbon and 'how sweet of you' sentiment from the sweet treats set by Flourishes.
This time I wanted to try layering with the stamped image. I also wanted a clean cut ,simple and cute card.
As you can see, I have stamped the images a few times and then I cut them out in such a way, I had seperated them from the original design so I can layer them. So , I stamped on the green card, then on the white card, then four times on the pink card. Then I cut them out and layered them with 3d sticky foam pad.Then I stick down my green card onto my pink card, trim to required size and stick down to my main greeting card.

I know I have been absent for quite awhile. I was on a much needed vacation from the world. During this vacation I saw family, old friends, ate too much food and not enough, hugged puppies, travelled through ten states, held three babies at once, played Risk until I fell asleep, got sand in places I didn't know existed, climbed monuments, saw dinosaurs, drove over the Brooklyn Bridge, drank too many cups of coffee at hours I shouldn't have been awake, visited memories, learned (more) Spanish, watched guitars being built, got an idea of how much of the Earth is filled with water, and made many, many discoveries.
I am a traveler by nature – my mom even calls me a gypsy – but I don't know if that comes from curiosity, something you learn to want, or just the rawness of being born with it. Either way, I am a traveler to my bones. I enjoy 'roughing it' or jumping from hotel room to hotel room. I enjoy long car rides leading nowhere and stopping to take pictures. I enjoy the magnificence of man-made cities, but I enjoy the silent beauty of a God-created city more. All of these things are me and always have been.
I won't dwell on all of the things that I love about traveling. I am sure many people feel the same way. However, I am going to give one piece of advice. The best way, and I do mean the best way, to see the United States, is by car. A road trip.
Some people may cringe at the idea of a road trip, some may rejoice, but the simple fact is that a country that large, with so many places to see, is best done by driving to each destination. Why? Because you will discover things that no one else has.
Every road trip is different. You could drive the same road dozens of times and still find something new, because each time you will stop at different places. Of course you will have your markers of where you are going, but that is just of what is known. My favorite part of a road trip is finding out what is unknown.
Once you go on a road trip, you won't ever want to travel differently again. You will find things that your friends have never seen, feel freedom like a dog off a leash, eat food with names you cannot pronounce…
Road trips are a wondrous thing. See for yourself.

Martial Tai Chi Chuan Smooth Power:
Tai Chi Chuan practice is characterized as smooth, slow practice which may seem boring and unimpressive, as well as with bursts of fajing (explosive energy) which looks very similar to popular external martial arts. Slow practice is not without strength and contains much more meaning than just applied flex similar to lifting weights slowly/ it is often misunderstood as a practice for the elderly or one of magical qi.One strike is not as simple as generating force between two points, but infinite amounts of micro fajing (issuing of power) through every plane between the two points. The intent power flex and micro redirection, is contained within the transitions between two movements. Each posture is multi dimensional, capable of adapting and flowing, adhering, following, striking an opponent. By flexing slow but with strength, heightened sensitivity and listening power evolves. The practitioner is now capable of adhering continuously with an opponent, while maintaining precision controlled flex in any direction between very short distances. It is important to practice continuous smooth flex while not always generating 120 percent power in fajing to look externally impressive (which though has it's place in martial physics), but is not to be the ultimate goal. Practice of slow movements allow a heightened level of dimensional precision in movement and contains Yin elements of hidden energy and intent power methods. Fajing is categorized as obvious Yang energy, which seems fast and powerful externally, though also slower in speed to change in micro directions. After generating so much energy into one strike, it is difficult to put on the brakes. Smooth power training allows for a continuous seeking force from even one strike, instead of chambering and striking, again, and again.

During National Zookeeper Week, July 15 through 21, the Oklahoma City Zoo and Botanical Garden is profiling a few of the hardworking, passionate and driven individuals who spend each day caring for its animals. Meet Crystal Querry, senior animal technician - small mammals.
What animals do you care for?
I primarily care for pygmy hippo "Wolee", golden lion tamarins, a sloth and the new langurs, among other Children's Zoo animals.
What motivated or inspired you to become a zookeeper?
I fell in love with Judy the elephant as a child and loved coming to her birthday parties. As I got older I knew that this is what I wanted for my life. I'm sure her legacy inspired many.
What is your favorite part of your job?
Educating guests about the pygmy hippo, I hear more often than anything else people say that he's a baby but he's actually 43 years old.
What is an animal story that always makes you laugh regarding one of the animals in your care?
Wolee our male pygmy hippo spreads his poo and marks areas; he sometimes gets us. All you can do is laugh.
How long have you worked at the OKC Zoo?
I have been at the OKC Zoo for 8 years.
What is a conservation project that you are proud that the OKC Zoo supports or that your particularly passionate about?
I am very passionate about the Bowling for Rhinos campaign which I chaired in 2013. We placed fourth overall and I was able to go to Indonesia to see how the International Rhino Foundation uses the funds to protect the Sumatran and Javan rhinos. It was life changing to see how these rhino protection units dedicate their lives to protect and conserve.
What is your favorite type of enrichment to prepare?
I love doing holiday enrichment. Like when we do birthdays for the animals it's very personal to me. When we got Francesca for Christmas, or when we celebrate Wolee's birthday.

An Apprenticeship is a programme of structured education and training which formally combines and alternates learning in the workplace with learning in an education and training institution. An apprenticeship prepares participants for a specific occupation and leads to a qualification on the National Framework of Qualifications.
Apprenticeships are on a statutory footing, and approved by the Apprenticeship Council, SOLAS, and the Higher Education Authority. Apprenticeships require a registered employer for the apprentice. Craft apprentices can do their on-the-job blocks in the film industry. Apprenticeships can be offered at Level 6 (Advanced/Higher Certificate) to Level 10 (PhD). Apprenticeships are a minimum of two and maximum of four years in duration.
Screen Skills Ireland is currently involved in developing and/or delivering the following Apprenticeship programme:

Dear colleagues,
We successfully completed the SVOM System Requirements Review at the end of June. It was an important milestone for the project, where we started to introduce the idea of an evolution of the mission over its lifetime.
Following the Swift example, the time devoted for the Targets of Opportunity observations will increase and SVOM will now be presented as a multi-wavelength mission devoted to the transient sky. This will be done, of course, preserving all the GRB related goals of SVOM.
In order to promote the mission and to inform the scientific community we plan to write a SVOM white paper. This paper should be ready for the SVOM Preliminary Design Review to be held in June next year. With the goal to prepare the first draft of this paper we plan to organize a workshop at Chamonix Mont-Blanc (Ecole des Houches; http://houches.ujf-grenoble.fr) next year from April 10 to April 15. The title of the workshop is: The Deep and Transient Universe in the SVOM Era: New Challenges and Opportunities. This workshop will also be a great opportunity to gather the SVOM science community for the first time.
Thanks again for your participation in this successful workshop.
All presentations are now on line and available for consultation here
The pictures of the workshop are available here
The first version of the White Paper is available here


text: Get the Most out of Your Next Shop Visit I came to the automotive industry after more than a decade with a communications company. What I have come to realize in my experience in this industry is that most problems between auto repair shops and their clients are a result of faulty communication. It can be hard to understand the mechanical, electrical, and computer engineering aspects of cars. It's like going to your dentist or your doctor. You do not know what is wrong but you know you need it fixed. Here are 8 quick tips that can help you get the most out of your next auto repair shop. Communicate the Symptoms When you take your car to a shop for a repair, be sure to give the Service Advisor an accurate description of the symptoms your vehicle has. You know your vehicle better than anyone else. Carefully describe what you are feeling, seeing, smelling, hearing, etc. Jot down what you were doing when it happened, what the weather was like, how long the car had been running, your speed, etc. The Service Advisor will communicate your information to the Technician so that the appropriate tests can be completed. The more information you provide at the onset, the lower your testing costs will be and the more accurate your diagnosis. As the vehicle problem surfaces, take a moment to document what happened. "When I started the car this morning it cranked several times before it would start. I drove it to the store and noticed the battery light was on. When I came out of the store, I could not get the car to start." This will let the Technician know what types of tests to start with so we can accurately resolve the root cause of the car's symptoms. We want you back on the road as quickly and safely as possible. Be Clear With Your Auto Repair Expectations Another communication gap with clients and shops is misunderstood expectations. Shops are juggling emergency calls all day. The best way to ensure your expectations are met is to communicate them with crystal clear clarity. Things that are important to you should be shared with your Advisor.  Some examples: Do you need your car back by a certain time? Be clear on what you want the shop to do. "Please find out what is causing XYZ and then call me for authorization." "Perform an oil service and tire rotation please." "Would you determine what is causing ABC? If you can fix it for less than $800.00, please get it done." If you do not understand something your Advisor has said, ask questions until you do understand. Do not be embarrassed because you do not understand right away. Cars are complex and the complexity is growing more each year. It is our job to help you understand. Do Not Expect an On the Spot Auto Repair Diagnosis Just like going to the doctor, when you check-in with registration they cannot provide you a diagnosis. Service Advisors cannot provide information like that either. The reason? They have not looked at your car. Cars have changed a lot since the first one hit the road. We have cars in the shop all the time that have double digit computers in them. There is no way to guess accurately. Symptoms lead us to tests. Test results lead us to the root cause. Then we can prescribe an accurate 'fix' to your vehicle problem. I know you are concerned about what is wrong and what it will cost and how you will get to work. Until a thorough inspection is done and proper testing is completed, we find we lose time in the 'what if'. I would much rather take the time to get you a proper answer so you can make educated decisions. You do not want your doctor guessing at what is making your mom sick. We don't want to guess at what is making your car sick either. Tell the Truth Like going to the doctor, you must tell the truth. Sometimes people are afraid that if they tell a shop the truth, it will cost more. That simply could not be further from the truth. The more honest you are, the better chance we will find an answer for you more timely. Tell us if someone tried to fix the car, if the temp gauge went in the red, or if the battery was connected backwards. The more accurate the information you give, the faster the problem can be identified and the proper repairs can be recommended. Leaving out critical facts almost always results in additional problems and expense to you. Leave Accurate Contact Information Another really critical tip is to let the Advisor know how you can be reached at a moment's notice. It is very important that you can be immediately contacted to make decisions about your vehicle repair needs. It takes time to test your car. Technicians usually need to remove things on your car to get an accurate test result. If they have to reassemble your car because you were not readily available once the testing was complete, your costs may increase. Why? Because the technician will have to remove the parts again when you authorize the repair. If for some reason you will be unavailable, it's in your best interest to authorize repairs up to an agreed upon dollar amount when the vehicle is dropped off. Not being able to communicate with a customer is one of the biggest difficulties shops run into. This usually results in unhappy customers because the work may not be completed timely. It Is What It Is When the shop calls to advise you the results of your tests, it can sometimes be an emotional and frustrating experience. Costs may be more than you expect or the damage far greater than you want to hear. Your Advisor is your biggest advocate. S/he is working on your behalf to get the answers you need from your car doctor so you can make educated decisions timely. Cars are made of mechanical and electrical parts that do not have an infinite shelf life. Everything dies. We are here to help you. If you do not understand, make a trip to the shop and let us show you what we see. We believe a well-educated consumer is more likely to be a happy client. It is a Win-Win for you to understand the service being provided. Be Patient Every shop owner I have been blessed to meet is working hard to keep you happy. They know unhappy customers do not return and that's not the way to run a successful business. Things can happen in the industry that create delays. Incorrect parts delivered, sick employees, emergency repairs, and small jobs that turn into bigger jobs are all a part of our business. These are challenges we run into daily. We work to keep this 'drama' away from you as much as possible. Operating a shop is a lot like running an emergency room in a hospital. If your car comes in with strange symptoms or for major repairs, the shop will not know exactly what it will need for parts until the patient is on the lift and opened up. And then we must work quickly and effectively to get the patient back to 100%. It is a constant balancing act between the need to do the job properly and the customer's desire to have their vehicle back. Be Appreciative! If your shop has gone out of their way to get your car repaired as quickly as possible, found an inexpensive fix, loaned you a car, or found a repair that was a huge safety issue ... be appreciative. Contrary to popular belief, Techs have feelings too! It's human nature to be extra nice to the folks you like. Be nice to your auto repair shop employees and they will go out of their way to give you A+ treatment. Remember, most problems between shops and clients are a result of faulty communication. Try these top 8 ways to get great auto repair & service at your next visit!

Aussie Rock Royalty Slams Qantas' Refugee Deal As 'Publicly Toxic'
The Hunters and Collectors frontman is the latest to urge Qantas and Virgin Australia to cease involvement in Australia's refugee program.
An Aussie rock icon has added his voice to the campaign pushing Qantas and Virgin Australia to end its compliance with the country's refugee policy.
Hunters and Collectors frontman Mark Seymour has signed on to the campaign, which already boasts more than 60 industry leaders across unions, law groups and universities.
"My country's treatment of asylum seekers is not a neutral space," he told ten daily exclusively.
"It has been deliberately politicized by successive federal governments through ever increasing systematic cruelty, forced indefinite detention, refoulement to countries of origin, and medical negligence in off-shore camps.
"It is publicly toxic and no place for corporate endorsement."
Currently, both Qantas and Virgin Australia transport refugees and asylum seekers between detentions, to emergency medical appointments, and in some cases, back to their country of origin.
A joint campaign between two bodies is putting the pressure on both airlines to discontinue, saying it's a direct violation of international legal standards.
"I would feel deeply compromised and disrespected if I knew that a Qantas flight I was on was engaged in the enforced deportation of refugees whose circumstances remained the subject of contested legal process," continued Seymour.
"The national carrier should never be used as an arm of government policy especially when that policy remains as toxic as it is now.
"The Australian travelling public deserve greater respect."
Also adding her name to the campaign is a family member of one of Qantas' founding members.
Sir Fergus McMaster was one of three founding members of the Queensland and Northern Territory Aerial Service, as Qantas was originally known, serving as founding chairman from its inception at 1920.
Almost a century later, his great-niece, the poet and novelist Rhyll McMaster, said she hoped her great-uncle, though a conservative, would have supported the cause.
"In order to protect our own human rights, we must protect the rights of other vulnerable, innocent people who seek our protection," she told ten daily.
"I can't really speak [for Sir Fergus], but... because my father was a thoughtful, liberal and educated man who taught me how to look at issues of justice, I hope my great-uncle would have been open-hearted on this issue."
The more than 60 names already backing the petition -- which includes former president of the Human Rights Commision Gillian Triggs -- is a joint effort between the Australian Centre for Corporate Responsibility (ACCR) and the Refugee Advice and Casework Service (RACS).
Their plan is to lean heavily on the positive brand images cultivated by Qantas and Virgin Australia.
Qantas, which cultivates a feel-good brand image, told ten daily last week that it was governments, not airlines, that are "best placed to make decisions on complex immigration matters".
But the ACCR's Brynn O'Brien countered, telling ten daily that it was "companies, not governments, that are best placed to make decisions on business risk."

You've planned everything and packed your things. Finally, the day comes when you're finally moving out. However, while you can't do all that lifting and carrying, the movers Fredericksburg VA has provided you show up and do everything really fast. When you begin to wonder and ask yourself, "Am I supposed to tip them?" then you should learn these four things.
Why You Should Tip Movers
Indeed, you should tip your movers. Your movers are expecting you to tip them. The movers belong to any other similar service industry. It's essential to know that movers make things easier for you. In fact, they're worth more than your hairdresser. However, why you should tip them depends on how they did their job. Did they protect your furniture? Did they bust a sweat as they ran to carry your stuff? Did they help you pack your things?
How Much Tip You Should Give
If you've decided to tip movers Fredericksburg VA has provided you, then you should give each mover a rate of $20 for every five hours of work. That should be reasonable. Some movers would spend around 12 hours moving all your antiques without any trouble into the eighth floor of your apartment. In that case, tip them each at $100. Also, think of what they're moving. Nonetheless, tipping them anywhere from $4 to $8 per hour of work is the usual standard. For two hours of work, give them anything between $8 and $16.
Give the Hard Worker a Bigger Tip
In case you notice one of the workers doing the job harder than the others in his team, then give him a bigger tip. If you see him doing his best and going the extra mile for you and your furniture, make sure he gets a much bigger tip than the others. You can also tell the manager about his performance in case you can send a review. Make sure that the manager knows the exact person you're talking about.
The Tip Doesn't Have to Be Money
You don't have to tip professional movers with money. You can order a pizza, or you can have food ready for them to have lunch with you. That's an excellent way of showing how much you appreciate them. Hungry workers are not necessarily happy ones, so food will keep them working happily. Food is also a great way to relieve stress.
Some Final Words
The moving day is undeniably stressful. However, you don't have to burden yourself with all that stress if there are professional movers Fredericksburg VA can provide you with. Also, you won't break your bank if you have to tip them even with $8. Besides, it's being professional on your part. The most important thing is that you've shown your appreciation.

A 2017 graduate of St. Paul's, Kyle Dipietro attends John's Hopkins University where he plays lacrosse. While as St. Paul's he was a cast member of "Hairspray" and "Peter and the StarCatcher" as well as a lacrosse and basketball player. Kyle shared with us about his experience at St. Paul's.
My experience at St. Paul's School for boys has been amazing. I have attended this school since pre-first. Living 5 minutes from here, this place has literally felt like my second home. I would like to start off with talking about the St. Paul's Community. The St. Paul's community is a very special one. To give an example of this, students including me leave their valuables out knowing that it will be there when they get back. I've just recently come to realize that this does not happen in the real world it just happens here. Not only this but everyone in the community is nice and friendly. You do not just have a small group of friends, you are friends with your whole grade. My classes and the teachers over the years have been great. They teach with the perfect balance of making the class hard/making you think and helping you.
I was also given the time and variety of choices to try new experiences during and after school. During middle school I played football basketball and lacrosse. In high school during my freshmen year I played basketball and lacrosse. We won the JV basketball championship. I then played these same sports for sophomore and junior year. Than my senior year I decided to do the musical in the fall, the play in the winter and lacrosse in the spring. I played sports my whole life and never even thought about trying the arts. Because St. Paul's pushes students to try new things and has them on campus this allowed me to try new things and have a great experience.
I was also taught to be a St. Paul's Gentleman. This means being a respectful and loyal young man that also follows the honor code that we have. This honor code is a code that we will not lie, cheat, steal and allow people to cheat. I feel that this school as a whole has made the best possible impact on me. Most importantly St. Paul's has taught me to be a St. Paul's Gentleman which is known in the real world as being a good person.

- MC of event, Jon Wood - Managing Editor MMORPG.com
- Jack Emmert - Founder, Cryptic Studios, Champions Online, City of Heroes/Villans
- One other person, Mark Jacobs or "Matt" from Cryptic
- Ray Muzyka - General Manager of Bioware, haven't released one yet
- Min Kim - Free-to-play, Cart Rider,
- Rob Pardo - SVP of Game Design at Blizzard, Lead designer of WoW
Format: Panel and audience questions
MMO: Can an MMO be successful without 3rd party IP
- JE - Publisher/investors love IP as it has a guaranteed market, high cost needs a guaranteed return
- RM - Invest enough into marketing and it will cost the same amount, need to understand what license enables and what fans want
- Bioware does both
- MK - Generally don't use, like a racing MMO doesn't need
- RP - Pros/cons of approach - benefit, but challenge of working with license holder, for them, already using well-known IP and no license issues as they owned the IP. Working with an IP will help, no need to ask who an Orc is really if it already exists
MMO: Console development?
- JE - Champions online will be a MMO for consoles, ridiculous, discourage everyone from doing it, especially Blizzard. Has Blizzard bought "Africa" yet?
- RM - Pick and choose your battles, who are you selling it to? It can be successful on any platform
- MK - Mass market, PC is the way to go, experimenting with Xbox 360 game, can you distribute client for free?
- RP - Of course there will be, first decision is the game we want to make, then decide platform.
Payment mechanism: Subscription/Microtransactions
- JE - Micropayments are crap, I like paying one fee and not worrying about it, if i hear one more time, it's not item-based with micro-transactions, it's not the wave of the future, I like it as a player and as a developer.
- Matt - investors like subscription-based games, revenue and churn is more predictable, microtransactions are less predictable
- RM - I'd like to ask Jack how he "really" feels. I think it comes down to the design of your game, understand what you're making, what drives it, why are people going to tell friends about it, not a push it's a pull from fans, dominant form in Asia. Individual game and the design. Some games you don't want, or make them vanity-based. Start with something briliant, then go from there
- MK - Bigger than NCSoft, if you're going to go for core market that would pay subscription, targeting the mass market user, that is the main point, kids these days can't afford, undercharge some ($0), overcharge others ($100).
- RP - In asia, biz model is successful, getting Wow successful in Asia was more challenging and didn't want to change. Microtransactions are not a magic bullet. Make a great game, then decide what is the right model. Charge people for server transfers and name changes, can merge or do hybrid models, experiment in different places. Pay for time version.
- JE - Wow shows that it is mass market and it's not an east/west thing
- MK - Maple story, Target loves us because on a monthly basis they buy cards
- JE - Microtransactions are not the magic bullet, Target loves Wow more
- RM - both models are possible
- Matt - buy costumes, custom emotes, can differentiate, if I'm enjoying the game, I'm happy to give them more money
- MK - Sell social experiences that are sticky, average player plays 40 hours/month
Cost is increasing for MMO
- JE - Will have high budget and low budgets, measuring themselves against Wow. If we can't have Wow, we're not going to even try, more than a few companies thinking they can get 1/2 of Wow's numbers. $20MM is small in a MMO.
- Matt - Need to do 1MM subscribers/month, but small MMOs can survive with just 50K subscribers
- RM - Look at it in different ways. Barrier to entry, $100M is normal,
- MK - large budget MMO, won't be a sustainable business for everyone, no teams over 100 people, kart rider has <20 people
- RP - Wow set the bar to high, great to hear as a publisher, but want to see what people will do and how they push it.
- Everquest was previous 800lb gorilla, factoring in EQ expansions (3), so calculate things like land mass, creatures, etc
- I think Spore could have been redesigned to be a MMO, could be very successful and big budget but wouldn't need a content-team army
- Can Sci-fi succeed as a MMO genre? Significant hurdles, specifically licensed IP doesn't work (a ding against SWG?)
- What am I going to do in a Sci-fi game?
- Matt - Single player games that could be expanded into MMO like Mass Effect
- Ray - No comment on Mass Effect as the MMO, commented that multiple types are
- MK - I love Starcraft, if I had a Starcraft MMO i'd play that over Wow
- RP - question is silly, movies is the same way (scifi for 70's movie Star Wars), fantasy movies won't work, LOTR shows it can
- Future of User generated content/addons
- Matt - UGC - Players can make good stuff, will be in the future
- Ray - Will Wright giving a talk, pyramid of needs, creators, players, etc. Neverwinter Nights - enable people to play will never work, wasn't an addon, it was the product. If you launch with it and is part of the essence, then there's great potential. Tacking it on is a challenge
- What does the future of MMOs have to do with everything else?
- Answer: 42
- Players will never want to play an MMO,
- TV: Another season of your favorite show,
- Movie: Regular box games
- 2007 had lots of - delays, disasters, is industry healthy?
- JE - Industry isn't healthy, lots of companies have gone busts, publisher fear against Wow
- LOTR is only game for MMO that broke 100K
- What do you do to make it healthy?
- Build a really good game?
- underestimate the effort
- RM - Ambition and humility, strive to make something brilliant
- MK - Hard to pull Rob's base customers, Maplestory is successful because it hits others
- JE - Industry isn't healthy, lots of companies have gone busts, publisher fear against Wow
- Wow - High level of competition is great:
- Are unofficial vendors problematic?
- Gold selling market
- RP - Very aggressive stance against this, you come into Wow and you're even, that's a choice/promise we made. Persue it as much as possible, depends on games.
- Gold selling market
- Are unofficial vendors problematic?
- JE - tells, invites, for spammers in game, so players aren't annoyed

Academic criticism named "Multiple evidences don't support the conjecture of China's Great Flood at 1920 BCE" written by LZU's Prof. Dong Guanghui et al. were published on Science's website in its e-letter column. Since the control of Great Flood in prehistorical time may have generated the Chinese civilization, this criticism will exert great influence on the study in the field. The journal of SCIENCE CHINA Earth Sciences has approved Prof. Dong to organize special edition to probe into the issue, so as to upgrade China's overall study with regards to the relation between natural disasters and civilization evolution by academic debate.
The abstract of the above academic criticism is as follows:
China's historiographical traditions tell of the successful control of a Great Flood leading to the establishment of the Xia dynasty and the beginning of civilization. However, the historicity of the flood and Xia remain controversial. Here, we reconstruct an earthquake-induced landslide dam outburst flood on the Yellow River about 1920 BCE that ranks as one of the largest freshwater floods of the Holocene and could account for the Great Flood. This would place the beginning of Xia at ~1900 BCE, several centuries later than traditionally thought. This date coincides with the major transition from the Neolithic to Bronze Age in the Yellow River valley and supports hypotheses that the primary state-level society of the Erlitou culture is an archaeological manifestation of the Xia dynasty.

That unexpected knock at the door. A man and woman, strangers, stand outside your home. They casually offer you a ticket to heaven like it's for your favourite band in concert. Unlike your stereotypical groupie, the enthusiasm and dedication these religious fanatics demonstrate could be the result of hypnotic influence. Psychologist and hypnotherapist A.S. Hill uncovers the camouflaged hypnotic techniques used to recruit 'mental slaves' and warns us about Pentecostal and Revivalist groups.

We're moving! Please Read!
Hello everyone. Due to some issues with facebook falsely blocking my url as "abusive" or "spam", and after no less 5 unsuccessful attempts to get the problem fixed, I have decided to transfer to a new link. I'm keeping things pretty much the same, same layout and everything--you might not even notice a difference if I didn't tell you! But I probably won't be posting much anymore on this url, so I'd like to invite you to follow me at my new url HERE.
My facebook, twitter, pintrest and Google+ accounts still remain the same, but GFC and email subscribers are not able to be transferred. :-( If you would like to resubscribe at my new location, it would be very much appreciated!
By the way, starting tomorrow, I'll be posting a new giveaway every day until Christmas Eve (at the new location) so make sure you don't miss out!

Legal Informations & CGU
Charter GDPR
The countryside, beyond the urbanised surroundings of Périgueux, county town of the French department of Dordogne, extends through an undulating landscape, dotted with fields, woods and small market towns, nestling around their age-old churches. The surroundings are peaceful without being isolated as is proved by the proximity of amenities (the town hall, a chemist, a baker's selling bread and cakes, a butcher's selling raw and cooked meats, a restaurant, a gymnasium, etc.) and main roads. The A89 motorway, providing access to Bordeaux in 90 minutes and Brive in an hour, is only 15 minutes away. It is but 45 minutes from Bergerac airport, with regular flight to Great Britain, Belgium and Holland.
The castle
This castle, originally constructed as a "perfect square", has traded some of its defensive features throughout its history so as to improve the comfort of its residents. This explains why the west wall has disappeared, giving a clear view over the valley and the horizon. The partial filling in of the moats has resulted in the creation of ground floor openings, letting in light and providing direct access to the garden and the swimming pool. With the exception of the pavilion crowning the chapel, all the buildings date from the Middle-Ages. Today, the castle comprises two 35 m long and 10 m wide, parallel buildings, connected on the east side by a rampart, featuring a semi-circular doorway. Said rampart is topped with a wall-walk, adorned with machicolation, crenels and merlons bearing cross-shaped arrow-loops.
Behind the heavy, solid wood door, reinforced with metal fittings, extends the completely cobbled central courtyard, adorned with a well, fitted with a counterweight mechanism.
The south wing
Constructed between the 15th and the 16th centuries, this building is composed of three pavilions, standing side by side, to which a 20th century pavilion has been added above the chapel. On the courtyard side, it is flanked by a round tower which houses a spiral stairway, providing access to the three levels. The facade is defended by a row of machicolation interrupted by vast mullioned windows, created in the Renaissance period.
The north wing
This building is composed of three sections supported by the defensive wall. A 23 m tall, polygonal tower, flanked by a watch-turret, adjoins the two pavilions that are furthest to the west.
The outbuildings
Three old, independent farm buildings are some 500, 800 and 1,500 m from the castle.
Our opinion
This building can indeed be called a castle, a fortified castle even, as it still has many features of a defensive system which, as everywhere else, has had to be transformed in line with comfort requirements. With different shaped towers, a curtain wall, a covered wall-walk, machicolation as well as crenels and merlons, these 13th century stronghold premises, on their plateau, still have everything they need to scrutinise the surrounding countryside. The castle, together with the chapel and the dovecote, is classified as a French historic monument. Perfectly habitable in its current condition, it exudes potential for all kinds of projects linked to cultural, leisure, tourist and farming activities. Equestrian facilities are already in existence. The estate is immense. There is no doubt that the local community will be interested in any exciting projects that might take shape here.

The Xbox Community Network recently caught up with Dan Greenawalt, Lead Game Designer on Forza Motorsport 2 at Turn 10 Studios to ask him some questions on the upcoming Xbox 360 game...
"on the upcoming Xbox 360 game" well it is actually released, although not in Europe i spose.
It's been out since Tues. I bought it, great game if you like realistic racing games such as Gran Turismo. The physics in this game are spot-on, and it's a great time to drive the cars.
did I say something incorrect....or just something that people don't like to hear? Anyways, I hope he has fun with his one bubble.
