Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagaan Review
forget the risk. take the fall. if it's what you want. it's worth it all.
This quote reminds me of this anime.
For most your life, all you have ever known is disappointment, loneliness and rejection. Digging yourself lower and lower into the earth is your only comfort. If the chance to burst through the ceiling, seize the world above and claim it as your own arrives, will you take it?
This is a story of a boy who grasps at the skies with his dirt covered hands. A boy who spent his days drilling his way deeper and deeper into the ground, then eventually turns his drill to the heavens above. And he does it not alone, but with the help of those who come to mean more than the universe to him.
Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann is more of an experience than anything else. It is a captivating and entertaining piece of art that will have all your senses in a tangle over it. And like any piece of art, it is up for interpretation. While it is clear that most people are caught up with its strong points, very few notice its weaknesses. It is a masterful anime in many respects, but it is far from perfection.
The story involves a group of rebels led by the charismatic hothead Kamina with his young friend and partner Simon in tow, while in the company of an extremely competent and cool sniper, Yoko. Simon gains control over a mecha called Lagann, and from there, his destiny begins to unfold around him. Their world is overrun by beasts who oppress humans. So they make up their mind to fight, and fight hard.
What you have here is a fun, energy filled, manly action series with some of the most over the top mecha and fight scenes that at its core is entertainment at its purest. It is witty, funny, and highly simplistic in the way the story unfolds. Mecha battle after battle, ridiculous power ups that are satirical to the genre, and lots of babes to go around without getting in the way and actually contributing than being damsels in distress. It plays out traditionally with the expected mini-boss battles that are even thematic (based on fire, water, earth and air) depending on which evil minion the Gurren Brigade encounters. This is an adventure to its fullest, not holding back at all, shoving everything in your face and blowing you away. It is absolutely incredible.
Only on the rarest of occasions does an anime come along that truly grabs me and elevates itself above mere entertainment and into the realms of gripping television. This anime did this with frightening ease, not with complexity or depth of its storyline, nor with its technical excellence, or innovation, but with its boldness, energy, sense of humor, and heart. This was a good anime.
Rate it.

May -- June -- July -- Harrow
Three happy Months -- varied yet delightful -- the weather is beautiful -- the only genial spring I ever knew opened on us on May 4th - the birds -- the cuckoo & Nightingales -- are numerous -- the tender young green mantles the earth with beauty --
I was taken ill with the Influe[n]za again June 9 -- & suffered greatly being confined to my bed for ten days -- myconvalescence -- as ever with this vile illness -- slow & painful -- Julia [Robinson] spends the month of July with me. (529-530)

So, after spending a bunch of time tooling around with Nobilis, I've realized a major hurdle to the kind of deity-level campaign I want to run:
Linear time.
I was really hoping the "being a fundamental element of the universe" thing would stretch into fun rules about time and existence, but no. Like any other RPG, time runs in a straight line. Nobilis is basically set up like any other RPG, except your characters are "powers."
What do I mean by non-linear time?
Fundamentally, that you don't have to wake up tomorrow. You could wake up yesterday, next week, at the birth of the universe, or a billion years from now.
This might require specialized mechanics so that you can't "re-roll" everything you don't do successfully, even after leveling up. But it would allow for amazing kinds of adventures, where the basic tenets of existence are malleable.
The game would be like a never-ending denoument to a Bill and Ted movie, where changing the past and the future simultaneously are the key to moving ahead.
If I get bored with all 800 of my other creative projects, I might try to make that RPG. I think it would have a Chrononauts-style aspect that the history of the universe relevant to the characters is laid out on cards, but those cards change as the universe itself is changed.

Energy Act details must be scrutinized
I have been receiving flyers in the mail and seeing ads in this and other papers trying to interest me in installing a solar panel system in order to "make money from the sun". The Province's Green Energy Act guarantees that any producer of "green" electricity, no matter how small, can be allowed to connect to the electricity grid, and sell power to the electric company. Sounds very progressive, very "democratic" and fair, right? Perhaps a great concept in the ideal world…. until you look closely at the details and weigh the consequences of such a plan.
The Hydro company will pay me approximately 12 times more for my "green" electricity than I pay that same Hydro company for "their" power (whether it is "green" or not…think about that one!). All secured in a 20 year contract. This works out to be a pretty darn good investment, with payback period of around 6 years, and a yearly return of between 14% and 17%. There are thousands of people and companies lining up to get in on the deal.
The trouble is, to my way of thinking, if I sign up to get my "share", there will have to be other people who will pay me for the privilege (and for the fact that I have money to invest, and land and a building to install the panels on). Because where does this extra money come from? It comes from other users of electricity and the taxpayer. So my decision to profit from a government's foolish policy is based in a selfish short-sighted attitude that does not care for my neighbours.
My following this course of action will force other people to pay more for their electricity. These other people are likely to be people who are not as comfortable as I am, and how can I feel good about forcing them to pay more? And this is exactly what is happening in our province today.
I received my Hydro bill last week to see an enclosure that announced that the kilowatthour rate has gone up and the delivery rate has gone up. We have the Green Energy Act and the Province's (lack of a sound ) Energy Plan to blame for that. It seems far too few people want to make the connection between the rising rates and this push for "green power" (I love the colour green and I love the natural world, but I am SO tired of this expression!)
But what about the laudable concept of doing less harm to the planet by choosing smarter energy sources, like wind and solar, you may ask? And shouldn't we be willing to pay more for these less harmful approaches? Well, sure, if they worked (without bankrupting the province). The problem is that they don't work as promised, or not very well at least.
All of the wind and solar capacity that we put into the grid through these taxpayer subsidized programs will have to be (and are being) backed by the traditional power plants (gas peaker plants are being forced on Oakville and the Holland Marsh).
Often the wind does not blow, and every day, predictably, the sun does not shine. Our need for electricity may rise and fall daily, but that need is always there, 'round the clock.
A friend of mine told me how he was considering a solar power system too. Attracted by the lure of the Province's plan, he and his wife looked into the idea, and concluded that since, in effect, his neighbours would be paying him, that it was not really an idea that he could support. For him it made more sense to build his own "grid" and to wean his dependence on the industrial production of power. That is how wind and solar power can work. On the small scale, with individuals lessening their dependence on the industrial grid, and cutting their demands on that grid. Congratulations to he and his wife for having the marvelous insight and firm principles to refuse that selfish path. The trouble is that there will be way too many people willing to go for it, and he, and I and all of our neighbours will be paying the price.
Dennis Sanford, Melancthon Township

Florida stars turning pro
Gainesville, FL (Sports Network) – Florida juniors Corey Brewer, Taurean
Green, Al Horford and Joakim Noah all announced they would forego their senior
seasons in college to turn pro.
The Gators did get some good news, however, as head coach Billy Donovan
officially spurned Kentucky to stay in Gainesville.
Donovan led his stars to consecutive national championships, becoming the
first team to win back-to-back titles since Duke in 1992.
"They made a decision to forgo their senior years and enter the draft,"
Donovan said at a press conference. "I do not expect any of them back here
next year."
Brewer, Horford and Noah are all expected to be NBA lottery picks.
The annual NBA Draft will take place on June 28 in New York City.

Medical questions & health advice by board certified doctors
"What causes nasal polyps?"
I'm stuffed up all the time and my doc said because nasal spray didn't help I might have nasal polyps. What exactly are nasal polyps and what causes them?
The most common cause of nasal stuffiness is nasal allergies (allergic rhinitis). This is a very common condition in which the lining of the nasal passages become inflamed, often from reactions to common air contaminants like mold, mites, pollen, and dust. Sometimes, when this stuffiness and inflammation is chronic, it can lead to the formation of polyps, which are small protrusions of chronic inflammatory tissue in the nasal lining. The formation of polyps is more common in those who have bad asthma and cystic fibrosis, but it can occur in anyone with nasal allergies. However, before, investigating this possibility, I would make sure that your medication regimen for nasal allergies is maxed out and that you are using all of the medications as prescribed. In particular, it is important to use these medications, especially the nasal sprays, every single day even on days when you are not having symptoms. If you only use them intermittently, they will not work very well. If on the other hand you are using the medications appropriately, then ask your doctor to consider a referral to an ENT doctor. The ENT doctor will be able to investigate the possibility of nasal polyps and suggest appropriate treatment.

During the dog days of summer, a few dried fronds fell off the palm tree in Andrissa Dominguez' front yard.
To some, they might have looked like fodder for a compost heap. To Dominguez, they looked like campaign signs.
The City Council candidate, who lives downtown, set up a work table in the front yard with the same cans of paint — red, yellow, blue and green — that she used to coat the exterior of her house. Then she summoned her ex-husband, two sons and friends and set to work painting "Andrissa 4 HB" on each frond.
To date, Dominguez and her team have painted about 30 of the signs, and several of them now line the front yard of her house. With its bright colors and "Hakuna Matata" inscribed over the window, it's already a tourist attraction on the block, she said — to the point where strangers sometimes pose for pictures in front of it.

Water company's herbicide campaign
A campaign to curb the use of triazine and other herbicides which threaten drinking water supplies has been launched by Severn Trent Water. The initiative is a response to herbicide contamination which forced the company to abandon two aquifers, and will require it to invest heavily in water treatment plants unless the inputs are curbed at source.

Our body clock is regulated in large measure by sunlight, which acts like a reset button to keep our body clock on schedule. When we cross one or more time zones, our daily world of light and dark is mixed up, and fatigue and all its friends arrive to plague us. It isn't a lot of fun beginning a tour feeling like you are sleepwalking! What's worse, some travelers experience this state for days.
For more on light and its effect on our body clock, click here
So, can we prevent jet lag? Maybe not entirely, especially if crossing multiple time zones, but we can definitely take steps to minimize its onslaught.
1. Flying west to east (US to Europe, Africa, or Asia)? You need to wake up and go to bed earlier. Begin adjusting your schedule at home at least a week before your trip. During the day, enjoy the morning light, but taper your light exposure as the day goes on. On the plane, wear sunglasses, use a sleep mask, and close the window shade.
2. Flying east to west? (Coming home from Europe/Asia or heading for the South Pacific). You'll need to get up and go to bed later. Tours run early each morning, so no help there: however, you can try staying up a bit later the last day or two of the group's trip.
For a great read on how to accomplish the above, see what Dr. Smith L. Johnston, for instance, chief of the fatigue management team at NASA, says here
3. If you are accustomed to falling asleep to the radio or television playing, train yourself to fall asleep without them. You won't necessarily have them on tour.
More to do:
- As soon as you buckle your seat belt on the plane, set your watch to the destination time zone. Everytime you glance at it, your brain will be working behind the scenes to adjust your thinking. I can attest to the efficacy of this little trick!
- Drink lots of water before, during, and after your flight, at least 16 oz before you leave, and 1 quart for every hour of flight time not counting beverages with meals.
- Eat smaller meals beginning a day or two before the flight. Avoid foods which cause gas and bloating (cucumbers, beans, cauliflower, broccoli, colas, etc). Remember, gasses rise. As you gain altitude, the gas within you expands, and you experience bloating. With the ever more cramped seating in planes these days, you don't want to feel even more wedged in.
- Before, during, and after the flight, avoid alcohol, caffeinated beverages, and carbonated drinks. Motion sickness medications can also add to jet lag, so try not to use these, as well.
- Resist the urge to "crash" into bed upon arrival. On tour, you can catnap on the motorcoach. Touring or not, keep naps short - no more than 25 minutes at a time, so you will be able to sleep at night when you should be sleeping.

As flight schools struggle to hire and retain CFIs, flight instructor compensation packages might have to become more creative, according to the results of a compensation trends survey conducted by the Flight School Association of North America.
The survey queried participants about compensation levels, benefits, how instructors are paid, what environments (fixed-base operators, independent instructors, collegiate/university training) the training was provided in, and whether instructors are considered staff or independent contractors, said Jason Blair, a designated pilot examiner and flight instructor in Michigan who presented the survey findings on Feb. 10 at the Flight School Association of North America's annual meeting. Surveys were sent to about 1,700 persons, with 104 responses received.
Independent flight instructors made up 43.2 percent of the respondents. Stand-alone academy-style training providers represented 23 percent. Fixed-base operators represented 18.2 percent, college or university programs made up 5.7 percent, and CFIs who provided simulator-based instruction represented 1.9 percent. There were 7.6 percent of respondents who said they represented some other type of operation.
Sixty-eight percent of respondents said they are having problems finding enough instructors to meet customer demand, or are having difficulty finding experienced, qualified instructors. Just 31 percent said they have no problems hiring enough qualified CFIs.
The majority (40.3 percent) of respondents said flight instructors earn between $21 and $30 per hour. Another 14.4 percent said they earn between $31 and $40 per hour. There were 10.5 percent of respondents who said CFIs earn between $41 and $50 per hour, while another 10.5 percent said instructors earn between $15 and $20 per hour. For 7.6 percent of respondents, $51 to $60 is the hourly rate, and 3.8 percent said they earn between $76 and $100 per hour. One percent of respondents said they earn more than $100 per hour, and another 1 percent said they earn less than $15 per hour. Finally, 6.7 percent of respondents said instructors were paid a salary versus an hourly rate.
Health care benefits were not widely provided to survey participants (just 21 percent), but more than half of survey respondents reported that they receive discounted flight time, while 23.1 percent said they receive reduced rate or free educational coursework. Twenty-one percent said they receive paid vacation time, while 18.9 percent said they receive paid holidays, and 17.8 percent reported paid sick days. There were 36.8 percent of respondents who said they receive some other unspecified type of benefit in addition to compensation.
Meanwhile, a significant percentage of respondents (34.6 percent) said they're asked to perform ancillary duties (marketing, cleaning facilities, even landscaping) but aren't compensated for that work. There were 27.8 percent of respondents who said they don't perform additional services, while 20.1 percent said they do the extra work and are compensated at a lower level than for instruction; 10.5 percent said they perform additional work and are compensated at the same rate as for instruction.
These practices can play a key role in retaining flight instructors, Blair said. "Is your flight instructor the lowest person on your payroll?" he asked the group.
With the regional airlines hiring at a rapid pace, the demand for flight instructors will continue as pilots reach 1,500 hours and move up the career ladder, Blair noted. While Part 141 schools generally have a supply of their own students that they can hire, Part 61 schools might labor to hire flight instructors, he said.
Here's where creative compensation practices can give a prospective employer an edge, Blair said. Checkride bonuses and different billing structures for different types of instruction are two methods anecdotally cited by survey respondents, he said. Additionally, employers might consider some type of arrangement that helps CFIs remain current and keep their certification, he said. "Some employers are offering interesting compensation benefits, typically with service contracts," he said. "A few are paying for [employees'] training. A few are paying for the initial CFI."
The complete survey may be viewed at the association's website.

If you planted a garden this year, then, like me, you're probably left with an overabundance of green tomatoes now that the weather has cooled. In the past, the only benefit I saw to these late bloomers was their potential to become compost surprise. (You know, those random veggies tossed in your compost bin that sprout mysteriously in the spring.) The idea of actually consuming under-ripe tomatoes left me feeling a bit, well... green.
This fall I've had a change of heart. For one, I've redoubled my efforts to eat locally. With over 200 green tomatoes clinging to my withering vines, it seemed a shame to throw away such a bountiful and local source of produce. (As my son once said, "The only way it could be more local is if we grew it inside our house!") For another, I've learned that the Whistlestop Café did not corner the market on green tomatoes recipes. The other day my mother-in-law brought over a delicious Halloween cake called "Boogers and Slugs." Raisins served as the slugs, and the slimy boogers? You guessed it: green tomatoes. Nose pickings your mom actually wants you to eat? My kids gobbled them up.
Here are some other dishes that cleverly disguise green tomatoes in tasty ways:
Boogers and Slugs Halloween Cake:
Paula Deen's Green Tomato Pie:
Mario Batali's Green Tomato Spaghetti:
Not only do green tomatoes taste good in recipes, they're also good for you. Although they don't have the lycopene benefits of their red-blooded relatives, green tomatoes are high in Vitamins A and C and potassium. So go ahead, gather up those lonely tomatoes left on your vines. While you're at it, pick up a copy of Fannie Flag's Fried Green Tomatoes at the Whistlestop Cafe and enjoy a "green" read along with your green feast.

Ride and Drives
Make sure to bring your drivers license with you to the show! My absolute favorite part of the Auto Show is the Ride and Drive. Last year I got to take a little manual transmission sports car on a ride. My very first car was a manual transmission and so were our next few cars. There's just something really fun about shifting gears in a sporty little car.
Within Walking Distance
Make it a day and check out the area around the convention center. The famous Dallas Pegasus and cattle trail sculpture are both within walking distance of the convention center and make great photo opportunities.

ConocoPhillips ups investment plans for Bakken, Eagle Ford
ConocoPhillips intends to spend roughly $9 billion in 2014 on its North American operations. The company will increase drilling program investments in the Bakken, Eagle Ford and Permian plays. In total, global investments will reach $16.7 billion for the company. According to the company, approximately 39 percent of the total budget will be put towards its high margin drilling programs in the Eagle Ford, Bakken and Niobrara shale's. "Growth from these development drilling programs should account for 600 MBOED of production by 2017 and offsets normal field decline from the company's producing assets," the company said in its 2014 budget announcement.
Ryan Lance, chairman and CEO of the company, said 2014 will be an important year. "We have an unparalleled inventory of opportunities that will enable us to deliver organic growth from continuing operations in 2014 and beyond. In addition, our planned conventional and unconventional exploration activity should provide opportunities that can keep us on track for sustained growth and returns," he said.
Although 13 percent of ConocoPhillips' capital budget plans in 2014 will go towards exploration and appraisal, the Bakken doesn't fit into the company's 2014 plans. The exploration and production firm will deploy investment to liquids-rich shale plays in the Niobrara and Permian plays, as well as the Canol, Duvernay and Montney plays in Canada.
Earlier this year, ConocoPhillips opened an office in Billings, Montana to house it's Williston Basin operations.

The government doesn't agree when you disagree. What's new?! Well, here's the latest salvo against those who don't buy its propaganda.
As reported on Free Beacon:
{"This service could mitigate the diffusion of false and misleading ideas, detect hate speech and subversive propaganda, and assist in the preservation of open debate," the grant said.
The government-funded researchers hope that the public will use their tool in the future to report on other Twitter users.}
Whatever your political stripe, you should be outraged. The National Science Foundation is giving a million dollars to Indiana University to develop a program to censure & stifle free speech. Who are they to decide what's "false or misleading"?
Much of the tripe coming from government has always been false or misleading. There was Lyndon Johnson's 'war on poverty', Nixon's 'not a crook', Carter's Education Department to make the USA #1 (we were 8th, now 17th), Reagan "didn't know" about Iran-Contra, Bush 41's "No new taxes" & New World Order (thousand shadowy agencies of darkness), Bill Clinton's "didn't have sexual relations" (Monica Lewinsky), Bush 43's "Islam is a religion of peace" (only religion that subjugates women, allows slavery, espouses suicide bombing, kills homosexuals & Jews) and who can forget those WNDs Sadam Hussein didn't have . Barak Obama's 'if you like your plan…your doctor, you can keep them", closing Guantanamo Bay, hasn't stopped the weaponizing of government (IRS, FCC, NSA, EPA, FBI, BLM, and now the NSF) to put down "subversives".
Bush's "war on terror" has morphed into a war of terror. Not only do they fight our nation's battles but alas, now they're fighting battles against our nation in court & other places. Drones have already been used against US citizens for "law enforcement/ national security reasons". Bureau of Land Management tried to a ranch so a US Senator could get a kickback from its sale to the Chinese government.Google anything I mentioned afore. Don't take anyone's word for granted: read, speak, decide for yourselves. People can be mistaken but often they just lie. You deserve better, no matter who you are!

|captured and edited by me
I know what you guys are thinking, "why am I posting a September 2015 book haul when it's already in the middle of October?" Well for starters, I've been busy with my internship lately. Man, they really don't lie when they say work is much harder than college. Second, I've been really lazy during the weekends since I have to work during the weekdays I spend my weekends just sleeping and doing nothing. Therefore, some things got abandoned like posting in this blog regularly. But anyways, I am always trying to post something you know so bear my whining and just enjoy this book haul okay! I got shitloads of books to show you guys, a total of 24 books!
The Goldfinch by Donna Tartt
I bought this book from a Facebook bookstore that I stumbled upon, Sisyphus Books but I bought it from its Kaskus post. I saw that they were selling this book so I immediately bought it. I am building a collection of Donna Tartt's books. I already have The Secret History, now this, I just need to find The Little Friend now.
The Girl Who Saved the King of Sweden by Jonas Jonasson
This book and the next book were acquired from Anny, both of these books were sold in her marketplace post on Goodreads. I already own Jonas Jonasson's other book, so what the heck might as well buy his other book as well. I don't know anything about this book so this was an impulse buy for me.
The Circle by Dave Eggers
Another book that I bought from Anny. Different than the first one, The Circle has always been on my wishlist. The first thing that intrigued me about this book was its premise and the fact that I also love reading books that involve technology. Both of these books are in great condition for a secondhand book. Thanks, Anny!
Brazen (Otherworld Stories, #13.3) by Kelley Armstrong
This was the gem of September for me. I won this book from a Goodreads giveaway. In the details it said that this book is a limited edition, hardcover, leather-bound, signed by the author and the illustrator. I was so happy when it arrived in my possession because as I was not expecting it at all. This book arrived like two months after I won it and I was like "this book will never get here" but it did!! By the way, this book is also personally signed to me! AAAHHHHHH!!! So friggin' happy! LOOK AT IT! LOOK AT IT! IT'S SO BEAUTIFUL!!!!
Jasper Jones by Craig Silvey
I got this book from the recent Drive Books, Not Cars sale in POST Pasar Santa. They have this great deal of buying a bag for Rp100.000 and you can grab as many books as you want plus you also get a bonus neck pillow. To be honest I don't know anything about this book, I grabbed it because of the award stickers on the cover of the book and because some of the blurbs in said that this book is comparable to To Kill a Mockingbird, so it must be good right?
So, I recently sold my Indonesian version of the Twilight Saga and when I saw the English version there on sale at the DBNC, with no hesitation I grabbed it all. It's unfortunate that I didn't find the fourth book though. I'm just going to have to find it somewhere else. I also like how the books match each other. Even though all of them are in the ghastly movie tie-in edition. Except for the novella.
The Girl Who Kicked the Hornet's Nest (Millennium, #3) by Stieg Larsson
Another purchase from DBNC, I got this because I have the first and second book of the series already and didn't have the third so I got it. They're all mismatched though, the first book is an Indonesian version, the second book is in mass market paperback, and the third is in the regular sized paperback. Now I just need to find the fourth book.
Rot and Ruin (Rot & Ruin, #1) by Jonathan Maberry
I got this solely because of its cover. It's very scary and as you can see it is about zombies. Also the fact that this book is in hardcover and in pristine condition. Why the hell not? Oh yeah also from the DBNC sale.
Gone (Gone, #1) by Michael Grant
I've always wanted to read this series from Michael Grant and fortunately I found the first book at the DBNC sale. You guys know I'm a fan of dystopias and this one has an interesting premise where the world is only inhabited by youngsters there are no adults at all. Quite intriguing if I must say, this series has a lot of books in it and I'm not sure yet if I'll have the energy to collect them all.
This Lullaby by Sarah Dessen
Another DBNC loot, since I've read one Sarah Dessen book and it was pretty good. So, I've decided to pick this one up. I heard that this title is one of the people's favorites therefore I'm excited to start reading it soon.
Graveminder (Graveminder, #1) by Melissa Marr
Another book I know nothing about. I came across it in the DBNC sale and saw that it was written by Melissa Marr and I previously have read a short story by Melissa Marr and liked it so I decided to give this one a shot.
Quentins by Maeve Binchy
I have always wanted to try reading a book by Maeve Binchy and I saw this book at the DBNC sale so I put it in my bag without thinking twice. Hopefully it'll be good, the synopsis sounded good to me.
Q & A by Vikas Swarup
Did you guys know that this is the book version of the movie Slumdog Millionaire? Because I didn't. When I was scanning this book in Goodreads I saw its other versions and one of them was the movie tie-in edition. Since I liked the movie, I grabbed the book. Hopefully it would be better? Oh yeah, forgot to mention that this book also came from the DBNC sale.
Fortress in the Eye of Time (Fortress, #1) by C.J. Cherryh
Again, another book I know nothing about that I grabbed from DBNC sale. I just saw that it is a high fantasy book and the author have won a Hugo Award so it must be good right? It's the first book of a five book series, which I don't know whether or not the fifth book is the last or will there be more books.
Noughts and Crosses (Noughts & Crosses, #1) by Malorie Blackman
I first heard of this book from Ben y'all know him from his YouTube channel Benjaminoftomes. I was intrigued as he said that he liked it. Luckily I found it hiding under the pile of books at the DBNC sale and it's also a special edition that includes the novella of the series.
Sarah's Key by Tatiana de Rosnay
I know you guys have seen me hauling this book before (have I?) I think I have. I hauled the Indonesian version but then I sold it because I wanted to read the English version (I know, pretentious right?). Luckily I found this book at the DBNC sale so I got it, hopefully I can read it soon when I have the time and interest!
The Final Judgment by Richard North Patterson
Picked this up not knowing anything about it and after bringing it home I still don't understand why I picked it up. Will I read it? Well probably I'll just sell it. Or should I read it first and then sell it?
Black Order (Sigma Force, #3) by James Rollins
It's a book by James Rollins with a high rating. So I'm intrigued about it. The people who have read it said that this book kept them up all night to finish and it was action-packed. Hopefully I'll like it too when I get the time to read it.
The Pact by Jodi Picoult
The next two books I also got from DBNC. I haven't photographed them yet because both are still currently being borrowed by my friends. So I got this because I want to try reading books by Jodi Picoult and decided on picking up this one when I was there.
I Love You, Beth Cooper by Larry Doyle
I really liked the movie of this. It was the first time I was introduced to Hayden Panettiere. The movie was so funny like LOL-funny. I didn't even realize that the movie was adapted from a book before seeing it with my own eyes at DBNC. Really want to read this because it has doodles inside of it!!
Okay guys! So those were all the books I got in the month of September. Let me know what your thoughts on these books whether or not you've read any of them, or want to read any of them, anything really! I'd love to hear any comments from you guys!

Valentines Day. Love it or hate it, once February hits you can't escape it. Shops everywhere bombard you with images of cupid, love-struck couples and cards featuring admittedly nauseatingly cute kittens mewing "I love you" whilst the question on everybody's lips is "What are you doing for Valentines Day?"
Cynics are quick to argue that Valentines Day is merely a consumer driven farce whilst many a Bridget Jones have wailed into their wine glass at the prospect of being alone on Valentines Day with no prospect of an anonymous card sent through the letter box come the 14th of February. Blogs festooned with anti - valentines messages and images have risen in popularity and, worryingly, advice helplines have admitted to placing extra staff on the phones in the run-up to 14 February.
But to these cynics, lonely singletons and fierce opponents, I ask, aren't you missing the point?
Yes, Valentines Day could be regarded as a consumer driven day that fills people with dread and is designed to make people feel lonely or depressed. Or Valentines Day could be approached as a day to look forward to and an opportunity to celebrate and recognize all the great people you have in your life that love you.
I have spent countless Valentines Days with friends, going out for drinks, having dinner or simply curling up in front of a good film with a bottle of wine. The fact that I was single on Valentines Day did not bother me; instead I chose to focus on the positives.
Recognizing a growing trend, online boutiques, shops and card retailers have been quick to cater for people who, like me, want to celebrate Valentines Day with friends, family and co-workers.
Here are a few of my favourite products out there that perfectly capture the spirit of Valentines Day.
EllieEllie.co.uk stock some gorgeous pieces all year round (I've had my eye on their Location Map products for quite some time now) and are particularly well stocked for Valentines Day.
Photo taken from website.
I love this Polaroid Vintage Letter Tile 'Sisters before Misters' card pictured above. Whilst these Friend Definition keyring and pendent sets (below) are perfect for those seeking to treat close friends to something special.

To those newly single out there, online blog Domestic Sluttery discovered some amazing cards with illustrations by David Shringley last week. This particular card (pictured below) is a perfect way to cheer someone up and poke fun at previous partners.
Photo taken from Polite Cards website.
Looking for something more mainstream? This 'I Love...' Photo Frame from Urban Outfitters is great and can be given to friends and partners alike.
Looking for more inspiration or present ideas? Check out Bloomsbury Store, Paperchase and online blog Domestic Sluttery.
For those of you that don't like buying into Valentines Day but are still stumped on how to avoid the Valentines Day blues, here are some ideas on what to do on Valentines Day.
I have it on very good authority from recent graduate Rhona Kirby that Exeter has some great things to offer for those seeking to treat a partner or enjoy the day with friends.
Why not wrap up warm and hire a canoe from Saddles and Paddles to paddle along the quay?
I can personally recommend The Thermae Bath Spa in the centre of Bath. Featuring a gorgeous open-air rooftop pool, the Spa regularly offers group packages as well as the more romantic Twilight Package.
Alternatively check out The Canary Gin and Wine Bar for yummy cocktails and an old school ambiance.
Looking for something to do on a date or with a group of friends in Leeds? University student Josiah Menzies recommends the Sky lounge, Harewood House or the Cellar Bar.
Looking for something a little out of the ordinary? Try the Ice Bar for an out of this world experience. Megan's Deli on Kings Road provides a romantic setting for two or can cater for large groups and its food is simple but delicious offering steak, tiger prawns and octopus amongst other enticing dishes.
Last year my partner splashed out and booked a room at My Hotel. With an unusual bar with extensive Cocktail, Wine and Beer lists, a restaurant and coffee house all housed within the building you need never leave the confines of the hotel. The Valentines Day package is particularly for adventurous couples.
Whatever your situation or circumstance, there are plenty of reasons and ways to celebrate Valentines Day and that is why everybody should love Valentines Day

There has been little activity here on the blog front (or over on Unleash for that matter) for two reasons, both of them exciting for me. The first was the visit of my parents, and the other is that the past week (since they left) I have been putting the Iceland book together. I hope that today will be the final round of uploading and fixing of typos (each time I think that I am though and proudly pass the book off to be checked someone finds more!).
Until then I leave you with Bangkok Underwater, the next Chasing Summer article and the account of us hitting the floods on the way to get my parents at the airport.

This type of contact switch is for normally closed circuits; this means that the when the magnets are lined up with the switch the circuit is closed. Move the magnetic away from the switch causes the sensor to open. The security panel sees this, and if the system is armed, an alarm will occur. When it comes to alarm contacts you can trust the WINN brand security products.

Having never blogged before it took me a while to get my head around the process of how blogging could inform my practical design work. My initial blogs were quite short and disjointed – then I got into the hang of things and I believe that the complexity and relevancy of my blogs improved. I am aware of the fact that my blogs do not necessarily follow a logical continuance, but I feel that there are so many varied tangents within and around my research subject that it would actually stunt my research to limit myself to a singular mindset of the path of my research journey. I have allowed new findings to lead my next piece of research.
My approach to this research task as a whole was to start by further investigating some of the key themes that arose from compiling my annotated bibliography. My initial method was to aim to collate all of the relevant data that I could find and then assess the whole for the purpose of practical implementation once this was done – rather than researching, then undertaking practical work, researching again and then practical work again etc. My logic for this working method was that, having been a full-time Graphic Designer for eight years now, I am used to working from a brief and asking outlying questions so that I have the whole picture before embarking upon a design. I saw this task in the same way – with the blog effectively becoming my (somewhat abstract) brief. I also want to create something new in my practical design work, so I need to understand everything that is currently out there in order to be original (as much is physically possible anyway). I generally like to feel fully informed before undertaking design tasks or projects.
In reference to source material for my blog, my research method was always going to be internet-centric from the outset, as my research theme is very academic and conceptual, and not necessarily something that is easily inspired within the public domain. Having said this, as my blog developed I could see this as being a limitation in my research methodology and I made efforts to change my approach and step away from my computer and seek real-world examples by viewing hardware for e-reading or e-learning in retail electrical shops and also reviewing the education section of book shops. In addition my current employment within an academic course-and-publishing company has supported my research. I have a unique role that affords me access to classrooms where I can observe real-world educational contexts and apply learning from them to my own practice.
Another observation that I would make of my research methodology is that I would reguarly find myself going off on a research tangent by following up interesting sub-articles and links within the original research piece that I found. The authors would discuss in brief a supporting or relevant additional concept that then sparked enthusiasm in me and led me to read the discussed content further. The benefit found in this method was that I found some of the most useful and interesting research of this task within the bibliographies and related links to content within the original research that I undertook. The downside to this method was that it would take me some time to come back to the original article that I was reading. Perhaps going forward I would be better off noting the interesting sub-articles or themes and returning to them after I have finished reviewing the original reference source.
The theme of my research has also changed in the course of creating this blog. Initially I focused on a medium on which to impose my research learning (e-textbooks). Having now created the blog I see the opposite approach being necessary; I see the theme as now being the central focus of my research and I will apply the findings to an appropriate medium once I have evolved my research to the point where I feel I am informed enough to effectively design in order to problem-solve, or at least to design for what I see as a problem within currently available electronic learning resources.
Some of the concepts discussed in my blog were already known to me, and the research I found simply solidified and justified my thoughts. There were though, a number of new concepts that I came across that surprised and interested me. These also turned out to be the key themes within this subject area at present. 'Gamification', 'Deep Learning Design' and 'Ubiquitous Computing' emerged as key themes that to some extent surprised me and also excited me as they all held significant relevance to my field of research and were, in part, abstract concepts that evolved upon previous thinking in the field. Gamification in particular came to me later into the research path and is something that I definitely need to research deeper than I have done in order to better inform my design work. Ubiquitous Computing is also fascinating and, whilst somewhat scary in its capabilities, offers up a whole new world of supporting technological advancements that could benefit e-learning, in particular mobile learning. I will be spending a large part of my remaining research time as part of my practical work investigating the pragmatic implications of these areas.
To conclude, in creating my blog I have been inspired and motivated to apply research to practical application. To blend different e-learning technologies and concepts from related fields (such as psychology). I am now keen to embark upon some highly conceptual designs and I am also much clearer as to how I would like my practical work to evolve. I have seen a gap in the market for an eLearning course that really embodies all of the research findings surrounding deep learning. It has been an incredibly enjoyable experience discovering how I can convert theory into practice. Going forward I see my blog site as a means by which to store and refer to research and additional relevant links to content that I can refer back to when undertaking my practical work.
Here are some final thoughts that I have had regarding my practical work after assessing the content of my blog so far:
- I would like to look into how support content that is available through hyperlinks in e-textbooks or amongst e-learning courses could open within the book or program itself. I feel that this would better facilitate learning through users being able to better navigate between key and supporting content. In addition it would enable learners to compare points made in support content with that seen in the key text directly, side by side. Note-making as a third simultaneous activity would be a step further again to facilitating deep-learning.
- Gamification is a huge subject in the field at the moment and one that I would like to investigate further. I am keen to develop a short e-learning program that functions as a game.
- Younger audiences learn quicker and adapt to new technologies quicker than older audiences. I need to be mindful of always evolving my designs so that the avant garde doesn't become the status quo.
- Templates for deep-learning are open to abuse – as could be seen in the Cengage Music example. This is something to really consider going forward. Designer as actor or pre-constructor?
- Human emotions are key – could a piece of software be developed within ubiquitous computing fields whereby an in-device camera could record a user's clothing colour and then customise the colour scheme of the learning program to match?
- My practical design work needs to incorporate a blend of working memory aides, emotional stimulants and schema assessment along with strong layouts.

Massive Attack — considered by some to be the most political band in Britain — recently wrapped up their second string of North American tour dates this year. The last time they performed on Turtle Island was back in 2006, and they didn't disappoint in their return, impressing and enthralling long-time fans and newcomers alike (including our esteemed colleague Ezra Winton).
Their latest album, Heligoland, comes seven years after their last studio album. It's gloomy and brooding — one review even goes so far to label it "defeatist-sounding". But the subtly smart beats and dark beauty lays the foundation for lyrics that tackle contemporary social issues without an inch of restraint.
"We're really into the global state of the world and the financial climate — the issues of news and media," Del Naja told Rolling Stone earlier this year. "For me, as a sort of graffiti artist, you can be provocative, throwing up words and phrases. And you can be interesting. And slightly childish at the same time."
Enjoy a sampling of the new album by checking out the video to Splitting The Atom, in which Massive Attack rails against bank bail-outs.

When I was living in London I remember watching a documentary about a girl who had emigrated to New York, spent 10 years there and then went back to her hometown in Scotland to set up a design studio. It showed her walking along the beach with her dog, splashing about happily and she admitted that she had never imagined she would be fortunate enough to be in this position. A great life and a job she loved. I watched it at a time when I was commuting 2 hours each way morning and night. I had a job that I loved and financially I could do pretty much anything I wanted. But when I watched that documentary I thought "I want to be on that beach, splashing in the waves". Growing up in a beautiful seaside town in Donegal I didn't appreciate what I had when I had it. Faraway hills looked greener etc etc. But after over 14 years of living away from it all I realised the time had come to go back.
I'm working on a tourism project at the moment promoting the local area and am fortunate enough to have photographers providing beautiful images for the project. When I look at these photos I realise what an amazing place I live in and how much I missed this when I was away from it. Recession or no recession, Donegal is the place to be! I was on the beach the other day and it suddenly occurred to me that my life is now very similar to that girl in the documentary. Funny how things work out. So I just splashed a bit more in the waves and enjoyed every minute of it.

A month ago, I had an opportunity to visit the Qutb Shahi tombs site and had a (brief) look at the restoration activities and to say that it is a mega project would be an understatement.
The entire restoration project is divided into three phases and each phase is planned such that the visitors can move about freely in the rest of the site.
The three years of restoration work has infused life into the weather beaten mausoleums at the Quli Qutb Shahi tombs complex near Golconda fort. The sparkling white domes of the renovated structures are a contrast to the older monuments that patiently await their turn for a makeover.
Although the Quli Qutb Shah tombs' complex is commonly referred to as 'Saat Gumbaz' or 'Seven tombs', it encompasses a total of 75 structures comprising 40 mausoleums, 23 mosques, six baolis (step-wells), a hamam (mortuary bath), an Idgah, pavilions, garden structures and enclosure walls spread across an expanse of 108 acres.
The complex is an example of rare architectural splendor and was selected for conservation by the Government of Telangana. The objective was to restore the grandeur of the site and develop it as an urban archaeological park called Quli Qutb Shah Archaeological Park. The aim was to showcase and ensure long term preservation as well as enhance understanding of the monuments that stand within its boundaries.
The main aim of the project is to ensure long term preservation of the monuments which is achieved by using traditional materials and craftsmen. Only traditional building materials like lime mortar and stone are used.
The revival of Badi Baoli, one of the six step wells within the complex, is probably as remarkable as the 400-year-old quadrangular structure used for water storage. In a span of three years, starting from a collapsed condition in 2013, it has become completely functional and collected about 33 lakh liters of water during the monsoon of 2016, which is now used within the site for the restoration activities.
It is common belief that a body was brought to the tomb complex for burial from Golconda through an underground passage. An archival photograph suggested the possibility of a processional path way connecting the Golconda Fort with the tomb complex.
Excavations were conducted at a depression found south of Ibrahim Quli Qutb Shah's tomb that revealed an arched gateway. This gate over which a mosque stands, would have been the processional path that was preferred for entry to the tombs during burial ceremonies.
The restoration project also envisages landscaping in about 15 acres as part of the Qutb Shah Heritage Park. Activities like tree and bird mapping have been conducted and various species of both have been identified. These studies will help improve the bio-diversity of the Qutb Shah Heritage Park as well as aid in creating an ecological zone with introduction of suitable tree species and development of a bird habitat typical of the region.
