Reviewby Theron Martin,
Tytania collection 1
In the far-flung future, the star-spanning Empire of Voldana is securely under the thumb of the Tytania clan, a family which technically controls no territory but nonetheless is the most powerful and feared group in the galaxy and has been for 200 years. As the clan's four Dukes each position themselves to be potentially named successor to clan lord Ajman Tytania, though, trouble is afoot. An effort to seize a new technology from the fringe city-state of Euriya results in a sound and shocking military defeat for one of the Dukes, a first for the Tytania clan and one which opens many eyes amongst both the Tytania leadership and its dissidents. The man at the center of attention for orchestrating the defeat, a laid-back individual by the name of Fan Hyulick, gets no respect at home for his feat (he was supposed to lose in a token show of resistance), so he sets off across the stars, dodging or escaping from Tytania's attempts to alternately capture, kill, or recruit him along the way. Although Fan also diligently avoids further opportunities to directly oppose Tytania, his growing notoriety and a lingering affection for a young woman makes that difficult. It is only a matter of time before the scheming Dukes find exactly the right button to push.
Meanwhile, bold, young Princess Lydia of the Elbing Kingdom journeys to the Tytania home fortress of Uraniborg in order to offer herself as a hostage for her Kingdom's good behavior in exchange for Tytania not taking over a vital Elbing mine. In her the seeds of change for Tytania may lay.
Based on an unfinished series of novels published in Japan between 1988 and 1991, Tytania is a rarity in sci fi anime: a true space opera, one which draws its style template from Glass Fleet but uses a story structure more akin to Banner of the Stars or Toward the Terra. Amidst its mix of grand events and personal struggles lies an epic tale about those who sit in the seat of power and those not content to let the powerful do as they will. As typical as this may sound, in this case it is especially important to understand that the story is as much about those who rule as it is about those who resist.
The advertising copy for the series pitches it as a story focused on reluctant hero Fan Hyulick, but throughout the first thirteen episodes he actually gets no more front time than Tytania's Dukes do. Instead, the series focuses at least as much time and effort on what the four Dukes are up to, with the greatest emphasis on Duke Jusran, the reddish-haired one whose distinct character traits are his intelligence and thoughtfulness; he could, in fact, be considered the series' secondary protagonist. Though the other three Dukes get less screen time, each has his own distinct personality niche: Duke Idrice is the amoral schemer, Duke Ariabert is the stiff and formal one, and Duke Zarlisch is the military man whose first answer to everything is to use force. Amjan, the white-haired clan lord, typically fades into the background despite being the ultimate decision maker, allowing the dashing Dukes to be the focus of attention. A third potential lead is headstrong Princess Lydia, who pops up here and there during the first few episodes before getting actively involved in the plot beginning around episode 10. Both the timing of her first appearance in episode 1 and the narration's comments about her are none too subtle in indicating that she will have some major importance as the story progresses. Each side also has its lesser but significant supporting players, including Duke Zarlisch's apparently gay brother Alses (and the series vaguely suggests that the reason Alses is assigned to govern a frontier world is because Zarlisch is uncomfortable with and/or embarrassed by his homosexuality); Lee Zhang-chen, a handsome doctor of philosophy who works with the rebel forces trying to recruit Fan; and the two prominent women in Fan's life: feisty love interest Lila and pragmatic former princess Miranda, who in every sense is the antithesis of what you would normally expect from a princess.
Yes, it's quite a colorful cast, and the story actually occasionally gives them interesting things to do. Nothing about the writing is particularly bold or innovative beyond Fan's clever strategies and the twist about how he inconvenienced his government by actually winning a battle he was supposed to lose, but it does make a diligent effort to flesh out the characters a bit while simultaneously juggling several plot balls and keeping the overall story flowing. Generally it succeeds, especially in the relationships it builds between Lila and Fan and between Duke Jusran and Lydia, but the writing also has its dull points, and unfortunately the entirety of the first episode is one of them. That the space battle scenes lack much sense of excitement or vigor does not help since the focus of the first episode is on one such battle.
One of the main reasons the space battles fail to impress is that they look like pretty much any other massed anime space battles you have ever seen. They make no effort to do anything fresh or distinctive, instead relying on heavily on battle designs first established by the earlier Gundam and Macross series. The animation and artistry here is certainly far superior to anything seen in those series, but that alone doesn't make these battles interesting; compare them to the ones in Banner of the Stars to see how a series which is inferior on technical merits and artistic refinement can still upstage this one on execution.
The CG elements used prominently in the battle scenes are also a factor here, too. While they looks very sharp in a technical sense - near top-of-the-line, in fact - too often they also look too artificial, especially in the explosion shots. The artistry is otherwise very good, with a strong emphasis on creating rich and varied backgrounds which highlight both the opulence and poverty of the varied settings. Character designs are also distinctive, attractive, varied, and well-proportioned, ranging from the very boyish-looking Lydia to a Lila who is amazingly hot despite her petite build to a plethora of handsome dudes to satisfy the female viewers. Perhaps the most interesting design aspect is how the European décor is applied even to spaceship interiors, with military apparel and the dress of nobles also consistent with classic European styles. Non-CG animation is also good, although not quite a top-tier effort.
The soundtrack, by comparison, is a weak point. Its operatic opening number sets a pretentious tone that the episodes do not maintain despite heavy use of orchestrated numbers and the battle pieces fail to generate sufficient excitement. Closer "Lost in Space" by Psychic Lover is a solid rock number but feels out of place paired with this material.
Sentai Filmworks has recently started dubbing some of their releases, but this is not one of them. The subtitles are even a regression to their earlier releases last year (the ones heavily plagued by lax editing), as there are several minor typos throughout. In typical spartan Sentai style, only clean opener and closer on the second of two disks are included for Extras.
Judging Tytania based on its first episode may leave a false impression of its quality, as the series definitely gets better as it delves more into the personalities and plot threads in play. Calling it a truly good series may be a stretch, but those who favor sci fi anime with a grand scope which includes action, but is not a slave to said action, may find this one to their liking.

How one sign shop owner transformed his business with determination, a thorough plan, and creative commerce.
Michael Wright has never been afraid to dream up an idea and act on it. He got hooked on the sign business right out of high school working at a shop in northern Virginia. A few years in, he followed his love for graphic design to the School of Communication Arts in Raleigh, North Carolina. And after graduating, he wanted independence, so he founded MEWStar Designs in 2003, supporting himself with design work from logos to websites for the next 10 years.
"But my dream was always to have my own shop," he says. Never afraid to ask for help, he talked friends who owned local sign businesses into letting him use their machines for years. Finally, opportunity arose in 2013 when the owner of a local sign shop decided to sell his business. "He had all the equipment that I had ever dreamed of," Wright says. He convinced his parents to join him and his wife, Janine, as business partners, and they dove in.
Doing Some Digging
Signworx was a traditional sign shop, providing everything from vehicle magnets to apartment signage for local clients. Just a few months after getting into business, Wright visited a tradeshow in Charlotte, looking for new ideas. Digital technology was everywhere, he says, and when he stumbled across the direct-to-garment hotspot, "I just fell in love with the technology."
His business partners weren't so convinced ("basically, everyone was against me," he remembers), but the resistance he met from his family may have been the best thing that could have happened for the shop's future in DTG. To move forward, Wright had to come up with a thorough and convincing business plan that would prove the value of the technology.
A watertight business plan is everything when bringing in a direct-to-garment printer. The machines are notoriously high maintenance – especially older ones from four or more years ago – and if they aren't kept busy, they can do more harm than good to a shop's bottom line. You've got to know that the product will sell.

Causation is extremely important. It is the most fundamental relation or connection in the universe. Without it there would be no science or technology. Our thoughts would not be connected with our actions and they would not be connected with consequences. There would be no moral responsibility and no legal system. Causation is the basis of prediction and explanation. Any intervention we make in the world around us is premised on there being causal connections that are to at least to some degree ch a predictable. Without it we would not be able to predict or explain anything. We would not be able to make decisions and not be able to act on these decisions. There would be no natural laws. There would be total chaos. Such a world is illustrated by the following picture of random points i a two-dimensional space. There is no correlation, no causal claims can be made, no prediction or explanation possible, no rational decisions can be made and no rational actions can be taken.
The picture is generated by Poisson process using a Monte Carlo random number generator. I took it from the blog by Peter Coles "In the Dark".
We can therefore not do without causation and It is very important to be able to identify and establish causes.
Anyone who makes a causal claim must state the premises on which he/she bases the claim. He/she must have a theory of causation
What is it for one phenomenon/event to cause another phenomenon/event?
Everybody thinks that he/she intuitively knows what causation means or is and how to make valid causal claims. However, philosophers and scientists have proposed a large number of theories and there is as yet no consensus about a single theory.
Because of the uncertainty about causation I recently decided to read deeply about causation. I want to be able to identify causal relations that have a very high probability of being true, true positives and negatives, false positives and negatives. I want to avoid being seduced by spurious correlations.
This has proved to be very difficult and time consuming. I have been reading about 15 books and a large amount of other material but I have to admit that my knowledge and understanding is still marginal. This is understandable considering that philosophers and scientists have not been able to reach consensus about causation.
I shall continue to publish posts and pages about causation to this website in the hope that this will increase my knowledge and understanding about causation and perhaps also that of others.

Welcome once again to the month of August. I actually thought we were supposed to have a break (August Break) from the heavy showers we've been experiencing here but that doesn't seem to be the case in this part of the country side.
As we all Know, this is the season of the African pear (Dacryodes edulis ) and the squirrels and Crows have started doing One of their many odd jobs (Throwing down half eaten pears from the trees)...lol. In Igbo land, it is Known as "Ube". The most interesting part is, this annual fruit is harvested concurrently and just in time with maize (corn) which is traditionally eaten together like a staple food of the season.
Preparing and enjoying African pear isn't a daunting task. In Just about 5minutes of softening in hot water or dry heat(like in the pics), the fleshy pulp of the pear is ready to eat especially with maize.

Infinity Energy Resources, Inc. ("IFNY") is a natural resources exploration and development company with oil and gas concessions covering 1.4 million acres offshore Nicaragua in the Caribbean Sea. The Companys concessions are located adjacent to Noble Energys (NYSE: NBL) 1.8 million-acre offshore concessions, which have been estimated by Noble to potentially contain 2.7 billion barrels of oil. Noble has recently commenced drilling.
To date, reprocessing and interpretation of previously collected seismic data by independent engineering consultants has identified four prospects, covering a total of over 547 square miles in shallow waters along the Nica-Tinkham Ridge beneath IFNYs concessions. These consultants have calculated that the potential oil resources present in these structures in the Eocene geologic zone alone could approach 10 billion barrels. IFNY is currently seeking a partner to provide the financial, technical and operational resources to explore and develop the concessions.

University Life and Epilepsy – How to Plan your Living Accommodation?
University life is all about enjoying life and partying hard – correct? Not necessarily. As a young epileptic person, enjoying university life may be the last things that you have on your mind or you'd probably be looking towards such a lifestyle. Well whatever are your expectations and anticipations, making epilepsy just a part and parcel of your everyday life will help you experience the best days of university life.
University life brings a whole lot of new experiences and people, which can be both exciting and frightening. Planning ahead is helpful to make the transition to university life easier, giving you ample of time to prepare yourself for the upcoming events of university life.
How to Plan Your Living Arrangements?
When you go to a university, the first thing to decide is where to live? If the university is close to your home, you may live at home. But if the university is away from your home town, there are many types of student accommodation available: you can live in student halls, or in a shared flat or home. Or you could live somewhere you feel you are comfortable on your own.
It's important that you form an idea about what type of accommodation will suit your needs, as well as what you would prefer.
- Are you comfortable living in students halls, where a warden is available 24/7, should you need it? Would you be able to spend all your university life living in student halls residence or would you like to shift to a new place after the first semester?
- Do you require any specific equipment or facility to make your living environment safe and secured? For instance, do you prefer shower than a bath? Or do you need a microwave rather than an oven to cook your food?
- Do you need someone to be with you especially during or after a seizure episode? If yes, who might be the best person to help you, and how will you manage to call for help?
- What type of electronic device should be available to make your living arrangement safer especially when you have a seizure? For instance, do you need a room that has a seizure alarm, so that you can call for immediate help?
The best way to decide and get an idea on the accommodation is to get in touch with the staff that handles university accommodation. They can understand your needs and talk through the various options that are available with them according to your needs and how they can provide their best help to you.
Communicate About Your Epilepsy
It is important for you to communicate your epilepsy issue. Don't feel any hesitation or shame revealing your health issue to your trusted friends and following departments so that you can get necessary help.
- If you need any help from student disability service and your lecturers – You can tell them you have epilepsy. Only when you talk to them about your epilepsy, then only they can help you.
- If you need any financial assistance, such as special allowances for the disabled, you need to disclose your epilepsy condition and show them necessary reports in order to qualify.
- If you experience seizures, it will be very useful for your trusted friends to know about your epileptic condition and provide you necessary help during a seizure.
Final Words
The key to enjoy the university life is to plan ahead, take care of yourself, inform necessary people about your health condition and make the most of what support and help available to you.

The Warrior in World of Warcraft is the ultimate front man in any battle. Whether the Warrior is tanking enemies or doing epic melee DPS, this is one class that is always deep in the thick of things. Resistant and tough, the Warrior is a very powerful class. Due to their ability to both deal damage and tank, players who choose the Warrior can easily experience two extremely different play styles.
While leading the charge into battle, Warriors rely on several terrifying shouts and intimidating banners . These things not only frighten enemies, but also bolster their allies. Combined with their natural prowess in battle, these things make the Warrior a venerable fighting machine.
Current Expansion: Warlords of Draenor
Choosing the Warrior
As mentioned above, the Warrior is always in the forefront of battle. Never a class to stand back or sit on the sidelines, the Warrior rushes headlong into whatever danger is in front of him or her. Due to the fact that they are often on the front lines, Warriors are very resilient to damage and often take on the task of tanking enemies to protect their friends. However, Warriors can also do some powerful damage. All melee, the Warrior uses brute force and their skill with weapons to smash through foes.
Players who choose the Warrior will find they have tons of race choices available to them. Races in World of Warcraft all prize and recognize the immense skills of the Warrior. Before the release of Cataclysm, Blood Elves could not be Warriors, however that has since changed. Now, every race in game has the option to become the Warrior class.
Warrior Core Abilities
Needing extra protection, Warriors can wear the heaviest Plate armor. However, this class can also wear Cloth, Leather, and Mail if they so choose. In order to best stay alive, most Warriors opt to use Plate. Rushing face first into enemies wearing Cloth, as Mages and Priests will tell you, is typically not the best idea.
When it comes to weapons, Warriors are masters of almost everything. Weapons able to be used by the Warrior include: Bows, Crossbows, Guns, Daggers, Fist Weapons, Staves, Polearms, One-handed Swords, Two-handed Swords, Axes, Maces, and Shields. The only weapon unavailable to the Warrior are Wands, which would probably be snapped in their iron grip.
Each Warrior comes with an innate set of abilities common to all Warriors, even those with different specializations. These abilities define the class. Examples of such abilities include: Commanding Shout, Cleave, Whirlwind, Mortal Strike, and Thunder Clap.
Warrior Rage
Warriors fuel their skills and abilities in combat with Rage. Warrior Rage starts out totally empty and must be generated by the player. Rage can be generated by the Warrior dealing damage and damage being done to the Warrior. Rage is currently capped at 100. The only other class that uses rage is the Bear Form Druid, making this resource quite unique.
Warrior Stances
In order to bolster their fighting skills, Warriors have three fighting stances they can change between. These stances are: Battle Stance, Defensive Stance, and Berserker Stance. Each stance provides the Warrior with different bonuses, making them useful in a variety of situations. Stances have a 3-second cooldown, not affected by the global cooldown. This means Warriors can jump in and out of any stance at the drop of a hat.
- Battle Stance – A very aggressive battle stance. Generates huge amounts of rage from normal melee attacks.
- Defensive Stance – The tanking stance. Decreases damage taken and increases threat generation.
- Berserker Stance – A combat stance.
Warrior Specialization
Each Warrior will have the chance to choose between one of three specializations; Arms, Fury, or Protection. Arms will enhance the Warrior's DPS abilities with the use of two-handed weapons and skills to make their blows even mightier than before. Fury is another DPS spec for Warriors who prefer to take on enemies with dual-wielded weapons and quick strikes. Finally, Protection is just what it seems; the tanking spec.
Players can choose whichever spec best fits their personal play style. Every Warrior specialization is currently viable in game. Pick one or play them all to give yourself a bit of variety! With their impressive damage, battleshouts, and tanking abilities, Warriors are a welcome addition to almost every group.

Just a quick post to alert Irish Chestertonians that the Spring/Summer 2010 edition of the Chesterton Review has been published.
The Chesterton Review has been going since 1974 and is full of very meaty articles about Chesterton and related topics.
(And they are meaty; this issue contains a twenty-seven page article on the social and political activism of Cardinal Patrick Moran, an Irishman who became Archbishop of Sidney from 1884 to 1911. You also get a review of Hilaire Belloc's novel Emmanuel Burden that runs to more than twenty pages.)
My own favourite article in this issue was, not surprisingly, by Chesterton himself; "The Dogmas of Free Thought" a reply to the atheist and secularist Robert Blatchford.
Here is more information about the journal and its publishers.

I (finally!) finished another book I've been meaning to read and review for a while, Dr. Les Parrott's 3 Seconds: The Power of Thinking Twice. The book was published by Zondervan earlier this year, and is one of many books by the author dealing with the basic topic of succeeding in life. The book is relatively short, at 193 pages (I'm not including the promotions for other Les Parrott books at the end), though not so short at the last book I reviewed. Parrott is a widely published (and widely read) doctor of psychology who founded the Center for Relational Development on at Seattle Pacific University. This particular book examines how one can live a more meaningful and impactful life by choosing not to immediately respond to one's first impulse and to embrace six patterns Parrott believes characterize successful people.
The book's length is broken down into a brief foreword by John C. Maxwell, an introduction in which Parrott lays out his thesis, six chapters corresponding to his six important impulses, and a conclusion summarizing his arguments. Parrott's thesis in essence is that taking three seconds to pause and re-examine one's decision: rejecting a primary impulse and embracing a secondary, less natural but more effective, impulse. The chapters cover the following negative and positive impulses:

- Empower Yourself: "There's nothing I can do about it," vs. "I can't do everything, but I can do something."
- Embrace a Good Challenge: "It's too difficult to even attempt," vs. "I love a challenge."
- Fuel Your Passion: "I'll do what happens to come my way," vs. "I'll do what I'm designed to do."
- Own Your Piece of the Pie: "It's not my problem, somebody else is to blame," vs. "The buck stops here."
- Walk the Extra Mile: "I've done what's required, and that's that," vs. "I'll go above and beyond the mere minimum."
- Quit Stewing and Start Doing: "Someday I'm going to do that," vs. "I'm diving in ... starting today."
In each chapter, Parrott dissects the initial impulse, analyzing its appeal and how and why it leads to failure, then follows up with his own second impulse and provides both statistical and anecdotal support for his solution to the problem. Woven throughout each chapter are not only motivational stories but referenes to Scripture (typically without direct, in-text citation, but typically also direct quotes).
Parrott's style is that of the counselor; his background as a psychologist comes through clearly. He deals primarily in the realm of human issues and speaks clearlywhen it comes to our mind's patterns. His writing is clear and simple. He doesn't have a distinctive voice, instead opting for a largely neutral tone that is informative and concise. While this doesn't lend itself to a particularly memorable style, it also keeps any idiosyncrasies from becoming overwhelming or annoying. Each section clearly states the thesis, expounds on it, and then neatly summarizes the ideas presented, along with several anecdotes for each chapter. Parrott doesn't spend a great deal of time dealing with things from a Scriptural perspective, focusing instead on the issues at hand from a psychological perspective (more on this below).
The merits of the book are its clear and concise writing, its skillful use of anecdotes, and its accuracy. As I noted in the stylistic analysis, Parrott's writing isn't particularly stylish, but it is simple and as such has a certain elegance. It's not cluttered, and this works to his advantage: the book gives you the information you want in a way that is easy to read, easy to understand, and easy to remember. The anecdotes presented bring the concepts to life in a way that help ensure that they do not remain mere abstractions. One interesting point in the book's favor, interestingly, is that the book is really not explicitly "Christian." Parrott is a psychologist, and a good one - but he is no theologian, and he makes no claim to be. He cites Christ at several points to build his case, quoting directly from Scripture, but the book is of the sort that it could easily be read by a non-Christian who would still come away having learned something. Perhaps more importantly, the book could easily be read by a non-Christian without feeling like Parrott was beating him or her over the head with the Bible in an attempt to Christianify, if you will, notions that are simply not terribly theological (though of course theology has implications for them). This might strike you as odd, but I see it as a huge advantage to the book: it is general enough to appeal to a broad audience, but has sufficient scriptural hooks to perhaps interest the non-Christian in taking a deeper look at Scripture.
The demerits, interestingly, parallel the merits: they are in the writing style, and the use of anecdotes. The downside to Parrott's lack of a distinctive voice is that the book, while informative and useful, is not terribly memorable. I didn't remember the principles presented without explicit review when I sat down to write this selection only four days after finishing the book. The book's emphasis on pure psychology absent much Scripture, while advantageous as noted above, could prove a turn-off to many Christians (though this is a less a demerit of the book than of the Christian publishing bubble, in my mind). On a related note, explicit referencing, even in footnotes, of the relevant passages would have been a huge boon to the book insofar as it does reference scripture.
I applaud Parrott for having written a credible and useful piece of non-fiction that is simply a good piece of work: that is, for being a good psychologist whose view is informed by his relationship with Christ, not a good Christian psychologist whose work is made irrelevant to the non-Christian by his lack of quality work. Too often I've seen authors who know their Christian audience will buy their book because it's by a Christian, instead of turning out quality work informed by their faith. While I can't say that the book should be mandatory reading, per se, I do think it's worth picking up if you have time. I know the Holy Spirit used it to bring me conviction in some of the areas Parrott addresses, and in so doing motivated me to pursue Him and His will in my life to a greater degree. If you've got some leeway in your schedule (or perhaps more importantly if you don't), you should consider this as one possible read.

A draft of the first chapter of the ZODB book has been committed to our GitHub repository. It's just the introductory chapter, so it might not seem like much. However, the introduction is very important when starting a technical book, since it sets the tone and helps define the audience more clearly.
If you can spend a few minutes to read it and comment, that would be very helpful.
By the way, there is now a portlet at the top right of the blog that shows the latest commits to the repository. This may make it easier to keep track of the book's progress.

StillPoint Acupuncture Healing Arts is the Chinese Medicine practice of Leslie Mentel.
StillPoint's origins can be found in New York City in the late 1980's - Tai Ji classes and visits to a Chinatown herbalist were my introduction to the Chinese Medical Arts.
After a three-month stay in India, I completed training in Trager Psychophysical Integration. Trager is a gentle, nurturing, hands-on approach to healing that I now integrate with Chinese bodywork. trager.com
In 1998, I enrolled in the New England School of Acupuncture, in Boston. I graduated three years later, with a Masters in Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine. In addition to the dual track in Acupuncture (Chinese and Japanese styles) and Chinese Herbal Medicine, I studied Classical Chinese Medicine and Craniosacral Therapy. I have National Certifications in Acupuncture and Chinese Herbal Medicine, and am licensed in New York and Massachusetts. Note: NESA is now part of Massachusetts College of Pharmacy and Health Sciences. nesa.edu
My acupuncture career began in a Boston public health clinic, and then continued in Fairport, NY and at FF Thompson Hospital in Canandaigua, NY. I opened my own clinic in 2005, and was a founding member of Rochester Community Acupuncture.
Since 2006, I have been a Tai Ji student of Robert Loce. My studies at Rochester Chen Style Tai Chi Chuan include Yi Lu, Er Lu, 19 Form, various Qi Gong sets, as well as spear and kwan dao forms. taichiworkout.net
From 2005 to 2007, I did advanced level training in Tui Na and Orthopedic Acupuncture with Tom Bisio and Frank Butler, in New York City. www.internalartsinternational.com
In 2010, I completed a year-long Sports Medicine Acupuncture Certification program, with Matt Callison, a specialist in orthopedic, musculoskeletal approaches to acupuncture. I was a teaching assistant for the program in 2011. sportsmedicineacupuncture.com
I then embarked upon some explorations that took me back to the roots of Chinese Medicine, with the intention of integrating this ancient wisdom tradition into a contemporary clinical practice.
In 2010, I was invited to participate in a three-week retreat at Jiashan Monastery, in China. Under the guidance of Heiner Fruehauf and his teachers, I was immersed in a process of healing based on Confucian and Daoist teachings. classicalchinesemedicine.org
In a two-year advanced program with Jeffrey Yuen, I deepened my knowledge of the history and clinical practice of Chinese Herbal Medicine. Jeffrey is a lineage holder in two Daoist traditions, and is a highly regarded teacher of Chinese Medicine. jadepurityfoundation.org
At the same time, I began a study of the Nei Jing, Classical Chinese Acupuncture's pre-eminent text, with Ed Neal, MD. edwardnealmd.com
In 2015, I completed a 200-hour yoga teacher training with Francois Raoult at Open Sky Yoga. My first class with Francois was in 1989, so this has been a journey back to my early studies in body, mind, and breath.
I followed this with a week-long "breath-centered immersion for hands-on Yogis", with Leslie Kaminoff. This was an inspirational exploration of the diaphragm, ribcage, and core body structures, as they relate to the breathing mechanism. These newly-learned hands-on skills and client exercises, have given me more tools for working with conditions such as asthma, COPD, panic/anxiety disorder, as well as the general (dis)stress response to life.
In 2016 and 2017, I have continued my studies with Tom Bisio. I am completing a four weekend study in Zang Fu Tui Na and also Cranio Sacral Therapy. These are both grounded in the Osteopathic tradition of subtle listening and palpating of different rhythms and motions of the body. These are interpreted and presented, by Tom, within the framework of Chinese Medicine.
StillPoint is a founding member of RocAcupuncture, a regional group of acupuncturists. Our mission is to encourage collaboration within the profession, increase community awareness about Chinese Medicine, and establish professional relationships with other healthcare providers.

December brought overtime. Lots and lots of overtime. As usual, old man Scrooge (a large software company in the NorthWest) wheeled and dealed with Paula to avoid the threat that she would actually use her vacation to avoid losing any in the usual year-end accounting-based theft of employee time. "Trust me," the miserable old miser said, "It'll be off the books, but you can just take some extra weeks later! And here, have an extra lump of coal to heat your office!" Bastard.
Meanwhile, at home, there was little Christmas spirit. No time for tree. No time for lights. Well, no space clean enough to put up a tree. And many lights were still sitting in the yard from last year, but plant life had overgrown it in a tight weave and we could not pull it free to plug it in. Besides, there was Asian Neighbor. We live in classic suburban isolation where we don't really know our neighbors, but we know of them: Asian Neighbor, Canadian Neighbor, Microsoft Neighbor, Plumber Neighbor, Rental Neighbor, and so on. Asian Neighbor, after years of declining effort in the face of Paula's escalating light war, had sprung into action the day after Thanksgiving, with a full-yard extravaganza of lights everywhere, bright candy canes, and something that was either meant to be a small deer or a large coyote. This further lowered our decorating morale.
In the end, all we managed were two red/white fur collars with jingle bells for the dogs. Every day, I would remove the elastic jingle-collars from the doorknob, pop them onto the dog's necks, and parade down the street festively. So long as we kept the shades down, the neighbors might regard our gaily jingling excursions and imagine that our house was full of Christmas trees, presents, and lights. Clever, I thought.
At the beginning of December, the inquiries began. First, circuitous: "I don't know what to get you for Christmas." Then direct: "What do you want for Christmas?" I began early, too. "I don't want nuthin' for Christmas!" I recited, while stomping around the house. To which I eventually added "We have everything we need, and the rest are things that can't be bought." This sounded sage to me, but it was seen for what it was: sandbagging.
The armistice held until about the middle of December. Then, one day, I looked up and saw a wrapped box on my piano keyboard. "What. Is. That?" I punctuated with stabby points of my finger. "Just a little present for you." Paula replied without looking up from old man Scrooge's laptop-for-home-work-because-we-don't-need-no-union. I stared at her, but she wouldn't look up. "It begins." I said grimly. "Capone" was playing in my head. "He pulls a knife, you pull a gun," Sean Connery was burring thickly.
Three days later, two presents appeared. Five days later, Paula noticed them. "What's this?" she said. "Just a couple of presents." I said. We danced the verbal minuet. "I just have one or two more for you." "I just have the one big present, and maybe one or two small things." "I meant to get something for you, but it's out of stock." "I ordered something, but I don't think it will get here in time." Sandbagging. When you find a strategy that works, stick with it.
The endgame commenced in the final week before Christmas. Paula was on "vacation", which of course meant monitoring work via old man Scrooge's laptop to keep higher-paid people from making too big a mess before the new year. It was time to show a few cards without revealing how many were left in my hand. More presents appeared in Paula's stack. "You said you had hardly any presents for me!" Paula accused. I shrugged and stated the obvious: "He who gives the most presents wins." The Christmas Game was past the point of pretending anymore.
There were other fronts to the battle, of course. Boxes to ship to distant friends and relatives, having only the faintest clues of how big a response was necessary to ensure victory. It was a lot of wrapping. A lot of boxes. A lot of things to think about and keep track of. We were having trouble remembering what we had got people last year, in order to avoid duplicates. The strain was showing. We were beginning to make mistakes.
After the boxes went out, I was shoving Christmas debris aside to make room for a plate to eat dinner when I unearthed something buried and screamed "What Is THIS?" It was a wrapped and labeled Yankee Candle for friend-Helen in Florida, whose box had already shipped. We stared at each other accusingly, each thinking "If we lose by a single candle, I'll blame you."
The final days were most intense. It was too late to get anything shipped without giving an undeserved Christmas present to UPS. Paula hopped in her car for a day of shopping. I gathered more cards into my hand and bided my time, laying them down carefully and slowly. The day before Christmas Eve, UPS arrived. "My last present for you!" I exclaimed. "You said that wasn't coming until after Christmas!" Paula accused. "I know. UPS is great, ain't they?"
On Christmas Eve, I remembered I had long meant to reprint and laminate that favorite recipe as a gift. What could be more personalized and heartwarming than that, I thought, Christmas Game points cha-chinging in my head. As I put my coat on, Paula said suspiciously "Where do you think you're going?" "Just thought of a few last-minute items I've been meaning to get," I replied, running to the door with alacrity. "I can buy more presents, too!" Paula yelled, as I got my hand on the doorknob. "My presents are made with love; yours are just revenge-presents," I called out. "Two can play that game!" she shrieked. "Two can play, but only one can win!" I yelled as I slammed the door.
Christmas was anti-climactic. We celebrated with the relatives, firing our fusillade of presents at them, absorbing their barrage in return. Not every skirmish fell our way, but mostly we won. As with every war, it was the children who took the brunt of it, spinning high on sugar, their little attention-deficited brains slammed by one present after another as though they were in some kind of cruel CIA experiment.
At long last, we got home on Christmas Day and could relax, enjoying the peace that would hold for another 11 months. Or so I thought. Paula leapt from the couch and shouted "Don and Helen!" How could I have forgotten? A distant aunt and uncle had stealthily fired a cruise missile of presents at us by shipping them to the in-laws. We had no warning before Christmas Day and hadn't gotten them anything. We had to form a response immediately. We began ransacking the house and the depleted "Miscellaneous Xmas Gifts" box trying to come up with anything.
"I found something for Uncle Don," Paula said, "but what are we going to do for Aunt Helen?" Something in the back of my mind stirred, and I sat down to think. Suddenly I leapt up and grabbed her. "Is there not a Yankee Candle sitting here, already wrapped, that already says From: Ron&Paula To: Helen?" I shouted. Paula quickly remembered what I meant and shouted back "Yes. There. Is!"
We looked at each other and began to tear up. It was a true Christmas Miracle. In the distance, we heard the faint sound of bells jingling. The dog collars had fallen off the doorknob.

I know it seems like I've fallen off the face of the earth. But I'm still here! I just took a little break from blogging to get recharged and get my creative juices flowing again. And believe me...it's hard! My mind is still consumed with all I'm learning for my new job. It's hard to concentrate on anything else right now. The perfectionist in me has been a little stressed trying to know everything way too soon.
I'm sure there's alot that's gone on, but I'll just use some pics from my iphone to summarize life around these parts lately :) With Thanksgiving tomorrow and Christmas coming up, there will be so much to blog about....got to get caught up!
Patriot Homecoming
Y'all know I love me some high school football! It's been another hard year for our young team, but I've enjoyed it nevertheless.
The Homecoming game is always alot of fun! We were especially proud of our pastor's daughter, Mallory for making the court. She's such a sweet, talented young lady. She not only represents her school well, but she represents Christ well.
Doesn't she and her dad look awesome?! And we won the game, so Yay!!!!
The "100 Mile Peanut Pickin Yard Sale"
Scott and I went to our first "100 Mile Peanut Pickin' Yard Sale". It's nothing compared to "Peaches to the Beaches", but we enjoyed our day together. We picked up a few things and I was excited to find this small file cabinet for my office area. Only paid $25.00 for it! You'll see a picture of it later after it was sprayed and put in its place.
We celebrated my Pepapa's 90th Birthday in October.
Every year that we have him in our lives means so much to us. He has been such a huge influence on our family's faith in God and I can't imagine life without him in it. I hope God blesses us with many more years with him.
I think this is the first time in a long time that me and all of my sisters have been there to celebrate it with him. That made it even more special :)
Lucy goes to ATL and Phantom of the Opera
Lucy went on her first trip to Atlanta to see her brother in October. She's not a fan of riding, so it's always a challenge to travel that far. But we made it....thanks to her anxiety meds!
Dillan lives in the middle of downtown Atlanta, so a nearby park was the closest place to potty. Lucy didn't know what to think about all the traffic, but she liked the park alot.
The main purpose of the trip was to go see "Phantom of the Opera" at The Fox Theatre. We had wanted to go for a long time and finally got around to purchasing tickets. Y'all, it was so good!
While there, we also found a little time to go thrifting. I've been collecting things to do a gallery wall in our newly decorated living room and found just the right stuff to finish it! Pictures will be up soon.
The fun thing about a gallery wall is the eclectic mix of things you love...even things you may not think could go together. I really liked these two blue hand painted pieces. I thought it was neat that they found there way to Atlanta, Georgia all the way from Fall River, WI! And they look great with the other pieces on the wall!
Our high school softball team had a great season this year. They were Region Champions and earned the right to play in the state playoffs.

My niece, Autumn is on the team. She is one of their pitchers and also plays left field. I always enjoy when I get a chance to watch her or her younger sister play. I'm so proud of her and her team mates. They were State Runner-Up! Way to go, Lady Patriots!
|Autum pitching
Halloween was on Friday night this year. But it wasn't just any Friday night. It was Football Friday Night!
|Me & Shaana
We're big football fans and love to wear our school colors. So when Halloween and Friday Night Football collide, we celebrate BIG!
Since the game was at home that night, our little town did trick-or-treating on Thursday night. I don't have a little one to take, but I enjoy going with the younger kids in our family.
Speaking of football, it's been another fun year watching our Nick Marshall lead his Auburn Tigers on the field!
There are alot of Auburn fans in Scott's family, so we recently celebrated a birthday and Auburn win all in one night. So much fun!
Well, there's probably more I could talk about, but that's the highlights. I'll try to get back to a more normal posting schedule. Lord knows, I hate it when I have to play "catch up". I always feel like I'm leaving out something important. I want this blog to not only be a creative space for me, but a place where family memories are recorded for future generations.
I hope this will be a place where my son can go when he's feeling a little home sick and get a taste of home and be reminded of how much I love him and how proud I am of him. Speaking of Dillan, I can't go without showing you a couple of his latest modeling pics.......
He continues to stay busy working on his acting career also. He's worked regularly on the set of the hit show, "The Originals" and got a call-back for a part he auditioned for in a movie to be filmed next summer.
We don't get to see him nearly enough, but thankfully he's home for the Thanksgiving holiday! I'm hosting this year, so we'll have the whole family here for lunch tomorrow and leftovers and burgers for supper. We'll also be enjoying some Black Friday shopping this Friday.
I'm so thankful for all that God's blessed me with, but most of all, I'm thankful for my salvation and the family that he blessed me with. I hope each of you have a great day tomorrow with family and friends. And remember, if you know someone who is lonely or hurting, take the time to be a blessing to them tomorrow as well.
Happy Thanksgiving, y'all!

One day Dad brought home a plain white box of home-made pizza. Just another budget pizza, I thought. I'm really not a pizza fan now, but this cheap pizza in a plain white box brought my love for pizza back. I never expected what my palate told me the first time I took a bite.
|Chef Arnold's New Yorker Pizza
|Chef Arnold's Marinara Pizza - my personal favorite!
Chef Arnold's Pizza is a humble pizza place, carinderia style, where patrons patiently queue and wait as their pizza orders are being done. Pizzas here are made upon order to ensure its freshness. From a ball of dough, it will be worked on into a pizza masterpiece right in front of you.
|Not only the food is real Italian style, the cooks wear chef hats to match the style this humble pizza place is imbibing.
After having tried two variants of their pizza take-away, New Yorker and Marinara, I really wanted to check out the place and see what's really going on in there. So after a session of boxing on a Sunday, Yan and I went there to satisfy our craving for Chef Arnold's. And who doesn't want to pig out after an intense session of work out, right?
The place was a big kiosk counter with stools. They have put in place few dining tables on the sidewalk right in front of the eatery for customers who wish to enjoy their meals right there.

In very affordable prices of Php 60 (single), Php 170 (family) and Php 250 (large), Chef Arnold's pizzas are truly for everyone. All boxes come in 8 slices. What makes it even better, they give out bread sticks with garlic or pizza dip to waiting customers for free!
We ordered Chicago Pizza, this is one of the best-sellers according to one of the cooks, and the Spaghetti Bolognese. I was surprised to know upon serving of our orders that the pizza was a stuffed one, not an ordinary topped pizza. It was such a good good spend for our Php 170 (family size). And the Bolognese was served in a fried pizza dough bowl which was edible too. The pasta was certainly delicious! It was a bit oily, but really delicious!
|Chef Arnold's Spaghetti Bolognese
|Free bread sticks while waiting for our delicious pizza and pasta orders!
|Yan digging into that bowl of Chef Arnold's Bolognse pasta goodness paired with the Chicago stuffed pizza
The servings were big, they sure filled us up! We were not able to finish both the pizza and pasta so we still had a take-home.
Eating there was kind of inconvenient though. Vehicles passing by, loud karaoke singing during the time we dined (how lucky!), and humid weather do not add up to a good dining ambiance. I don't mind eating in places like this, it's just other factors make eating here extra uncomfy. The food is very good nonetheless, everyone does take them away. Only few diners eat here, we only tried. This pizza place really is meant for take-outs anyways.
Delicious pizza variants are New Yorker, Hawaiian, Vegetarian, Marinara, Pepperoni & Mushroom, Arostito Pollo Conlaglio, Chicago, Margherita, Sausage Delight, Wild Wild Mushroom, Cajun and California. They also have Gyro Sandwich and Spaghetti Bolognese. I cannot wait to try every single one of the dishes I have enumerated!
Chef Arnold's do deliver, but only within the vicinity.
Chef Arnold's Pizza is located at #722 San Rafael cor Sta. Ana St., Plainview Subdivision, Mandaluyong City. Contact numbers are (02) 513 2589 and (02) 748 0086.
I heard they have recently opened their second branch in N. Domingo, San Juan (near Savory Chicken).
|Delicious pizzas of Chef Arnold's
It's definitely worth the wait! What makes Chef Arnold's dishes a winner? The taste is unique and it offers quality Italian style food in very affordable prices! No fancy what-nots, just delicious Italian dishes you keep coming back for.
You think I am overrating it? Try it for yourself, and let me know what you think. :)

Going over all of my financial aid applications and paperwork today, and looking at a timeline, and trying to get the grunt work part of this taken care.So now I'm really freaking the @#!* out. I haven't got a dime to my name (my net worth on the FAFSA was negative) I'm not counting on a penny from mom and dad, my credit is fair to mediocre at best, I still have some lingering debt from undergrad that isn't going away and I've only got four, maybe five months of steady employment (and rent) in front of me. In a best case scenerio I'll pull off a full scholarship and only have to come up with $30 or $40 grand to pay for this endeavour. Am I alone in the abject terror I'm feeling right now? Does anyone have anything reassuring to say? I could really use it.

I can't believe we are already faced with the end of 2013! This has been a great year for book lovers and trying to narrow down my favorites for the year has not been easy. I think I have them "short listed" but some of the books could fit in to more than one category so I tried to keep it to two for each one.
Romantic Suspense
Shades of Gray by Maya Banks – I am a HUGE fan of the KGI series (well let's be honest I'm a total Maya fan girl and am a huge fan of all her books) but I'm not going to lie I was not looking forward to this book. For some reason I had not been drawn in by P.J. and Cole and was kind of meh about reading their story. Since Maya is an auto-buy for me the book downloaded to my ereader at midnight and I was wide awake so I figured I would start it. I literally could not put it down and finished the whole thing that night. There were some difficult to read scenes but it was so emotional and such a journey for P.J. that this quickly became one of my favorite books in the series.
The Elephant Girl by Henriette Gyland – the blurb from this book caught my attention because I am raising my nephew who witnessed his mother's murder. I'm not sure what I was expecting from it but Ms. Gyland did a fantastic job of showing the struggles that someone who has seen such a horrific thing goes through. I loved that she had the heroine move on from her anger and grief and accept that it is okay to live and be happy, and the secondary characters were just as interesting. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that this may become a series because I would love to read the stories of some of the other characters. I think there is a lot there to be discovered and I thoroughly enjoyed the writing style, pacing and plot.
Lover At Last by J.R. Ward – if you are a Black Dagger Brotherhood fan then chances are you have been waiting for Qhuinn and Blay's story and it was definitely overdue. In terms of the actual core couple I'm not really sure Ward did the hardcore fans justice with their story, but the overall book did wonders to set up future stories in the series, as well as really get us intrigued by some of the characters we will no doubt learn more about later on. I hope that in future books we get to see more of the progression in the relationship of Blay and Qhuinn because I felt a tiny bit let down on that front, but at the same time I was satisfied with it overall – if that makes sense.
Unconditional by Lauren Dane – the Cascadia Wolves series was my first exposure to Ms. Dane's work so I was really excited to get back to that group. Yes we have seen glimpses of them in the de La Vega Cats series, but my heart was still with the wolves and I was not disappointed! From a kick-ass heroine, a hot hero who didn't try to control her and excellent story telling, Unconditional had all the elements I love in a Lauren Dane book. I really hope we haven't heard the last of this series!!
Ours To Love by Shayla Black – I wasn't really sure how I was going to like a menage book that involved two brothers but I should have known that Shayla would not disappoint! Xander is on a mission to save his brother Javier from himself and drags him down to Louisiana where the other characters from this series live. Desperate to save not only his brother, but the family business as well, Xander sets up a temporary office down there while he tries to get Javier sober and determined to live again. He hires London to assist in the office and it becomes clear that both men are drawn to her. The sexual chemistry between London and each man was sizzling hot and a large part of what made Xander love her was the way she cared for his brother. I think that big plot point helped me get over my misgivings of a menage relationship involving brothers.
Theirs to Keep by Maya Banks – this book is the first in the Tangled Hearts trilogy that Maya is self-publishing. Unlike most of her series, this one will revolve around Cade Walker, Merrick Sullivan and Elle rather than a group of people. When Cade and Merrick respond to an alarm at the business of one of their security company client's, they find a badly beaten Elle hiding in fear. After taking her in to help her heal, both men quickly fall in love with her. One of the things I loved most about this book was that it was so emotional. Typically menage books are very sexual, but given what Elle had been through it would have completely ruined the story if there had been sex scenes just for the sake of it. By the time any sex scenes took place we were already invested in the characters and although the sex was smoking hot, it was also incredibly sweet. I cannot wait for the next one to release!
Contemporary Romance
Drawn Together by Lauren Dane – this book is the final book in the Brown Siblings series and while I am so sad that its over, Lauren saved the best for last. For me, Erin's story had always been the most emotional and my favorite but after this I have to say I think Raven has knocked Erin back to second. Readers of the series "knew" there had to be an incredible story lurking behind Raven and there definitely was. It takes a lot for me to cry while reading a book but this one had me crying in a few places. Raven was so strong, yet so vulnerable and Jonah was her perfect counterpart. He didn't put up with her crap, he loved her but didn't let her run all over him and he didn't fight what he felt for her. The series had the perfect ending.
Sweet Revenge by Rebecca Zanetti – while this one is probably more romantic suspense I added it here because I loved the romantic part of the story just as much as the mystery. After reading the first book in this series I was really looking forward to watching this story progress and Ms. Zanetti has me all in for this series. I cannot wait to see what comes next! Matt and Laney were so sweet together, both with their past seemingly standing in the way of any possible future. I loved that while Laney may not be a physical bad-ass, in fact she faints at the sight of blood, she was an emotional bad-ass which is exactly what anyone who is going to love one of the Dean brothers is going to need to be. The fact that the Dean brothers are close means that there will be plenty of opportunity to see more of Matt, Laney, Shane and Josie. Nate's story is next and I really cannot wait to dive into that one.

He's baaaaaaaack! Yes friends, Edward Lorn is once again a feature on my blog and I honestly couldn't be more pleased about it. If you haven't already met E., as we all fondly call him, I highly recommend you check out these posts:
You can also scroll up to that review portal up there, and find his last name, for some reviews of his books! Spoiler alert, they're great and also deliciously creepy.
Anyway, I'll stop babbling and let you know that the reason E. is here this time is to promote his newest book, Fairy Lights. I'm not going to lie, I auto-bought this as soon as it popped up. Here's the synopsis.
Available online now at DarkFuse Magazine!Find it on: DarkFuse | Amazon | Goodreads
On Palomar Mountain, there hides a creature capable of unspeakable malice. A monster hungry for flesh. A being capable of manipulating those it allows to live.
Tony and his mother, Brenda, have plans to vacation on Palomar Mountain and intend to bring Tony's buddy with them. The party of three ascend the mountain for three days of camping without the aid of technology. But when the boys get lost in the woods, things escalate from bad to deadly in the blink of an eye. Because they're not alone, and the creature in the cave is not the only thing they have to worry about.
Intrigued? I was too! I'll be reading and reviewing this soon. Now, before you run off to go and purchase this (as I know you will), take some time to check out the playlist that E. put together for this book!
First and foremost, many thanks to Jessica (Hopelessly Devoted Bibliophile) for having me. I'm a huge fan of her reviews. Always a pleasure to see her in my inbox, so when she asked me to come over and share the playlist I concocted for my new book, Fairy Lights, with her followers, I was honored and jumped at the chance.
Without further ado...
Track #1: "Kowarete iku Sekai", by Girugämesh. If Fairy Lights were a movie, this would be the music playing over the opening credits. So, before you even crack the book open, give this Japanese band's best song (in my opinion, anyway) a listen.
Track #2: "Closer", by Nine Inch Nails. Let this classic piece of electronic rock play loud as hell during Chapter 2 and why I picked it should be abundantly clear.
Track #3: "Stressed Out", by Twenty One Pilots. I feel this song works best during Tony and Bobby's introductions. Getting to know these two young men and their Odd-Couple-esque friendship to this song just feel right.
Track #4: "A Little Piece of Heaven", by Avenged Sevenfold. All I'll say is, "Poor Ralph."
Track #5: "Freak on a Leash", by Korn. This song should accompany you as Moss leads us into the Handy's cave for the first time. Not only do the lyrics fit, but the music sets the tone for the eeriness of the scene to come.
Track #6: "What If it Was Me?", by Tech N9ne. Much of the book deals with race relations and racial tensions. The book is meant to be a modern-day lost-in-the-woods parable set firmly in the horror genre. While writing it, I wanted the book would be as violent and disturbing as possible, but at the same time I wanted to tackle some important questions. I think the biggest of these questions was "Is anyone really colorblind?" If I say "I don't see color" am I ignoring the bigger problem, and by default, does that make me part of the problem? Tony's mother Brenda asks herself the same questions.
Track #7: "Wait and Bleed", by Slipknot. My reasoning for this one is simple. If Moss had an anthem, this song would be it.
Track #8: "Prison Sex", by Tool. Put this one on repeat and let it play while Blake and Charlie are checking out the observatory.
Track #9: "Heart-Shaped Box", by Nirvana. I imagine this song working best while Brenda is playing with her son's phone. I actually had this song and the next one on repeat during the writing of Fairy Lights.
Track #10: "Lucretia", by Megadeth. Probably the weirdest song on the entire list is this classic from Megadeth's fourth album, Rust in Peace. I knew this was going to be an adult version of stories like Hansel and Gretel and Snow White with modern topics and social issues but I didn't want the typical witch character. The monster in the book, without spoiling anything, is probably the closest I will ever come to writing about the type of witch that cackled through some of the best fables ever written. Every time the Handy is on the page, this song was playing.
Track #11: The final three chapters of the book (15, 16, and 17) should be read in complete silence. And then...
Track #12: "Come on Up to the House", by Tom Waits. If Fairy Lights were a film, this would be the song that played over the ending credits. I think it speak very well to the book as a whole.
And that's where I'll leave you. Thanks again to Jessica for having me. If you like your horror to make you think and enjoy being disturbed on a visceral level, please give my newest release Fairy Lights a try.

Morgan Hill
The Morgan Hill Ride is actually the 60-mile route of the "Bicycling Spring Classic presented by Specialized" sponsored by Bicycling Magazine.This was the first time in the "modern age" (more than 25 years) that I had entered an organized bike ride and I had a good time.
|Bicycling Spring Classic 60-mile route
|61.36 mile
|Ride Time:
|Total Ascent:
|2635 feet
|GPS trace
|Overall Rating:
The ride starts and ends at Specialized headquarters in Morgan Hill. There are 3 lengths: 25 mile, 60 mile and 90 mile. Since this was my first ride of this type, I chose the 60-mile route.
Parking and check-in were easy. I knew that they would have a RFID that attaches to the left chain stay for KOM times (like this was a big issue for me!) and had thought I should bring a pair of dikes to cut the extra zip tie length, but I forgot it. Fortunately, they had some clippers and took care of it for me.
The start was well organized and we got off on time and without incident. There were police blocking the major intersections on the way out so we didn't have to stop which was quite convenient. We were out of town and into the country pretty quickly, heading out the Chesbro Reservoir before turning up Willow Springs Road. I guess this is where the 60 mile KOM was (there was a second one for the the 90 mile ride) since there was a fairly short climb with two boxes that I assume were the sensors. We continued on a bicycle path before going past Anderson Reservoir and the first rest station (I didn't need to stop) and then out past Harvey Bear.
We headed out New Road to Dryden and the up Leavesly Road. This section had some pretty good climbs on it before getting to Coyote Lake. We continued riding out to the Coe Hunting Hollow entrance where the second rest station was located. At this point it was nice to get off the bike for a bit. They had an assortment of bagels, orange slices, mandarin oranges (these hit the spot), water and other items. After a short break, I was back on the bike to climb up and over Canada Road. I made pretty good time on the steady but not too steep climb. The downhill was fast but I was a bit cautious since it was the first time I had been on it and didn't know what to expected. I was going about 32 mph when a guy flew past me and quickly disappeared! Oh well.
Once we got down the Highway 152, the climbing was basically over. However, the hills were replace by wind. I was still making pretty good time but it seemed like lots of riding was against the wind.
The 60 mile course and the 90 mile course were identical until we got to Day Road and Santa Teresa where the 90 mile group had another rest stop before doing some more climbing. I was glad to just be in the final stretch and headed back at a good clip.
When the ride was over, there were food truck and cold beer waiting. As part of the entry package, we got 2 food tickets, one drink ticket and 2 beer tickets. I used one of the food tickets and the 2 beer tickets (of course!) and was plenty full. I also took a tour through the Specialized museum which had some interesting displays.
All in all, this was a pretty fun experience. I was glad that I didn't go farther today and that the climbing was not too bad. It might have been fun to do it with some other people, so I will have to try to round up some others for future rides of this type.

Two EU Peacekeeping Forces Select Globalstar-enabled SafeFleet Telematics to Track Vehicles and Protect Staff
Globalstar has announced that two EU peacekeeping organisations have deployed the SafeFleet Telematics fleet management solution, incorporating Globalstar's SmartOne device.
The European Union Monitoring Mission in Georgia (EUMM) and EU Rule of Law Mission (EULEX) both chose SafeFleet Telematics to track and manage fleets, monitor driver behaviour, and safeguard personnel and civilian passengers in Georgia and Kosovo respectively.
Both organisations have responsibility for maintaining law and order, as well as carrying out judiciary, policing duties and border patrol in their regions.
They both sought a fleet tracking and monitoring platform to replace incumbent technology that was deemed inadequate. There was a rigorous tender process for each of the two deployments, all hotly contested by regional competitors and leading European providers proposing technologies including radio, GSM and SIM-based solutions. Only SafeFleet Telematics was able to deliver the required high level of functionality, reach and reliability, and at the right price.
The phased deployment at the two organisations is now complete with SafeFleet Telematics installed in vehicles used for logistics and transport, including armoured vehicles and all-terrain pathfinder vehicles. The more recent deployment, for EULEX, incorporated over 530 Globalstar SmartOne B Line Power devices.
"In many areas where these peacekeeping organisations operate, the GSM network is not stable or far-reaching enough," said Oliver Albu, International Business Manager, SafeFleet Telematics. "The most critical requirement was ubiquitous and reliable connection even where adequate GSM could not be guaranteed. Globalstar satisfied this demand."

Enjoy our detached garages.
Detached garages are a huge benefit to residential and commercial property owners. Lots do not always come equipped with attached garages and additions can be costly. Alternatively, detached garages are economically priced and easy to implement. We have a large selection of detached garages for our customers.
Protection is a huge advantage garages offer. Vehicles and equipment can be expensive. How will you protect them? If you don't have a garage, then you must leave them outside. Extreme weather conditions can harm your vehicle or equipment. Additionally, leaving them outside makes them susceptible to vandalism and extensive damage. Garages offer superior protection from weather and vandalism.
Garages also offer additional storage space. A house can easily get cluttered as the years go by. Also, a store can get overstocked and make the space look messy to clients and customers. Garages address storage needs of home and store owners. Home owners can store seasonal items such as holiday decorations in their garage while store owners can store surplus items away, making both places look tidy and inviting.
Garages also provide extra space to use as an office or workshop. A house or store addition is a costly alternative. Garages can serve the same purpose as an added room in your house or store. The extra space can be advantageous; whether you desire peace and quiet or a space to work noisily, detached garages provide opportunities.
Discuss the space needed with our knowledgeable staff. Dimensions, designs, and colors vary and are engineered to your desires. Implementation of garages usually takes about three weeks from the time you make your online purchase.

William Palmer was a surgeon "of superior degree of instruction", whose profligate lifestyle led to his ungracious demise in the mid-19th century. Palmer was charged in 1856 with the "wilful poisoning", with strychnine, of his 'friend' and horse-racing partner, John Parsons Cook (to whom he was in debt). His trial for murder became one of the most notorious cases of the period.
The post-mortem was farcical: not only was it carried in the very pub where Cook died but it was performed by two medical students, one of whom was drunk. Palmer had plied the student with brandy prior to the post-mortem to prepare him for what he described as a "dirty job". Unwittingly, this same man had supplied Palmer with the fatal strychnine – a poison used as an animal deterrent since the 17th century.
According to witnesses, during the autopsy Palmer pushed in as the stomach was being opened up. The contents were removed to a jar and were later found to have thin slivers cut through as though they had been tampered with. Needless to say a second post-mortem was required.
Although no evidence of poisoning was detected, Palmer was charged based on the fact that he had purchased strychnine just prior to Cook's death. It did not help that he was suspected of being involved in the deaths of his own four children between 1851 and 1854, not to mention his brother and mother-in-law. His apparent motive for the murders: fewer mouths to feed and financially rewarding life-insurance policies. He was hung for his terrible deeds in 1856 and like other notorious criminals at the time, a death mask was made of him.
Palmer went down in history as the Prince of Poisoners and the inspiration in several literary works. He gets a mention in Arthur Conan Doyle's 'The Adventure of the Speckled Band' and was the subject of Robert Graves' book 'They Hanged My Saintly Billy: the life and death of Dr William Palmer', which marked the centenary of his death. More recently, Stephen Bates skilfully dissected the story in his book The Poisoner: the Life and Crimes of Victorian England's Most Notorious Doctor.
An account of the full 12 day trial, which drew royalty, government officials, as well as media attention, was published in 1856 and is available to read online:

Two new images of Jessica Chastain as Mrs Williams in Tar has been added to our gallery.
The film, which was shot around 2011, had its premiere in Rome Film Festival in 2012. However, it didn't see the light for a while. A few months ago, Signature Entertainment has signed to distribute the movie on DVD (in UK) under the title "Forever Love", which came out last October 27 on Amazon UK.
While we don't have any news regarding an US release, IMDB has changed the film title now as The Color of Time, so maybe we'll have news about it soon.
TAR is based on Pulitzer prize-winning poet CK Williams' collection of the same name. The film takes us on a journey through several decades of American life from CK's childhood and adolescence in Detroit in the 1940s and 50s to the early 1980s: CK (James Franco) and his wife Catherine (Mila Kunis) are married with their son Jed (name of actor). CK prepares for a reading of Tar in New York City, and spends his nights struggling to write new poems, haunted by memories of his past. The film takes us back and forth between past and present, punctuated by voice-over from CK Williams' poems, recreating the experience of memory and exploring how the fragments of one's man life can be turned into poetic expression: his loving relationship to his mother (Jessica Chastain), his first sexual experiences as a teenager (Henry Hopper), his first love (Nina Ljeti) and the struggle to preserve a form of innocence and wonder, the illness and loss of a close friend (Zach Braff), and finally his life together with Catherine.

Comparison of lead-acid batteries, lithium ion batteries, Ni MH batteries, each advantage
|ˇľ·˘±íʱĽäŁş2018/9/11ˇż ˇľÔĶÁ´ÎĘýŁş368ˇż
Lead-acid batteries for lithium batteries
1. rechargeable battery
2. cycle life (500 times - 400 times)
3. specific energy (150W. H/kg - 40W. H/kg)
4. charging time (2 ~ 4H - 6~8h)
5. Discharge power efficiency (lithium battery discharge efficiency can be greater than 90% - lead-acid battery discharge efficiency is more than 80%)
6. price (higher 24V/10Ah price: around 700 yuan - lower 24V/12Ah price: 200 yuan or so).
7. the volume (small lithium ion battery volume is 2/3 of lead-acid battery volume).
8. weight (light weight only 1/3 to 1 / 4 of lead-acid battery weight weight)
9. Extension mileage (the same size of batteries, lithium batteries are composed of multiple batteries, although a single discharge efficiency, but overall efficiency is reduced, so the mileage of the two batteries are equal)
10. Pollution in production and use (pollution in production - there are a lot of lead and acid in lead-acid batteries, which will pollute the environment if not properly treated after waste).
11. discharge (susceptible to deep discharge and short circuit damage - vulnerable to deep discharge).
12. charging and maintenance (complex, high maintenance cost - simple, low maintenance cost)
Ni MH batteries have no advantage in addition to replacing 1.5V dry cells with low voltage.

Counted cross-stitch, as we know it today, is a form of needle-art which was revitalized in the sixties though its roots go back many thousands of years. While it is common to create a cross-stitched piece by following a pattern printed on paper, some cross-stitch products have the design printed right on the fabric. You can make your own printed cross-stitch projects, referred to as stamped cross-stitch, by printing your design onto an iron-on transfer sheet and then transferring the design to the counted cross-stitch fabric.
Things You'll Need
- Aida cloth sized appropriately for your project
- Fabric soap
- Iron
- Design in a digital file format on your computer
- Iron-on transfer sheet for your computer printer
- Printer
- Ironing board with padded cover
- Sewing pin
Video of the Day
Wash the aida to remove fabric sizing. Lay the aida on a flat surface to dry. Iron as necessary so the cloth lays flat.
Load the iron-on transfer sheet into your printer. Follow the iron-on transfer instructions for printing the design on the transfer sheet.
Follow the iron-on transfer instructions for ironing the printed design onto the aida fabric. Allow the aida to cool completely after the design is transferred.
Turn the aida cloth over so the printed side is face-down on the padded ironing board.
Poke the sewing pin through the aida holes to pierce the design on the front.
Turn the aida right-side up. The design is ready to be stitched.
