Cape Coral Police Arrest Two for Lewd Acts in Cape Coral Park
(February 21, 2014)- Cape Coral Police arrested two subjects for indecent exposure in one of Cape Coral's most popular parks Thursday afternoon.
After receiving complaints from park-goers of people engaging in lewd activity at Rotary (Glover Bight) Park, the Cape Coral Police Department tasked its Vice, Intelligence, and Narcotics Unit (VIN) with investigating and addressing the problem.
VIN Detectives set up an undercover operation on Thursday. In less than the span of an hour, undercover detectives were approached on two separate occasions by men who exposed themselves and attempted to engage in lewd acts with detectives.
Both subjects were arrested without incident and later transported to Lee County Jail.

Sequelized: Fallen
Time is on my side.
Yes, it is.
Anyone who has seen the Denzel Washington vehicle Fallen knows exactly what I'm talking about. Most people that I've encountered don't even correlate the song with the Stones anymore. It's Fallen. Walking through a crowd of people singing "Time Is On My Side" will inevitably result in someone stopping to ask if you're singing the song from 'That Denzel Movie'. How could a movie so culturally relevant not have spawned a sequel or even a franchise?
Well, it didn't make any money. Ok. I get that. But Blade Runner didn't make money initially and that movie has gone on to have like twelve different cuts, books, comics, and a new sequel. Ok, maybe Blade Runner is slightly more important than Fallen but Fallen has a fan base. I'm not exactly sure who the fans are, but they're out there.
Fallen centers around Detective John Hobbs as he combats an evil spirit named Azazel. Azazel has the nifty ability to be able to possess people and 'body jump' from person to person simply through a touch.
The movie is a suspense thriller that deviates from the usual milestones of other genre fair.
The film's high concept nature and the above average execution are fun but it's the immersive use of the Rolling Stone's 'Time is on my side' song that elevates the film. The film is iconic without actually being amazing. It's good, but not great. It shouldn't be as well known and loved as it is.
Fallen wasn't particularly well reviewed when it was released. It also didn't make a lot of money. Which means what? Brand awareness and room to grow.
I smell a TV show sequel.
The TV show would function similar to the Sarah Connor Chronicles did. Sam, Denzel's nephew in the film, is now around 16. He's being raised by an overly protective surrogate mother. They're constantly on the run/battling Azazel who has survived the events for the movie.
The arc of the first season would be Sam and his mother fighting Azazel. Of course they defeat him at the end of the first season. The big twist would be that that Azazel has homies. Lots of other demons that have a myriad of other powers. And of course Sam and his mother are introduced to a team of judeo christian demon hunters. Boom season two: Demon Hunters vs Army of Demons.
Let's make this happen.
Share and Enjoy

I was born in Alice Springs hospital. I lived at Glen Helen Station. It was a happy time growing up there. First I went to M'bunghara school, this side of Papunya. Then I went with my mum and dad to live at Trucking Yards Town Camp so I could go to school at Traeger Park.
When I grew up I had four children. Now I live at Larapinta Valley Town Camp and I started doing a bit of sewing at the Learning Centre. With my art I went on an art trip to Adelaide, it was a really good time. When I see my art I feel proud and happy. When I'm sewing I'm just thinking about the colours to use and the patterns. I stop worrying about things and just sew.

Last week due to the inclement weather hits that just kept on coming, I ran inside. Monday through Friday I banished myself to the movie theater in my gym watching seasonally inappropriate horror movies as I cranked out my miles on the treadmill. I have no idea why they were showing so many horror movies right before Christmas, but it's my favorite genre so I'm not complaining.
I feel like every runner I know loathes the treadmill except for me. They find it boring and tedious while I actually think the treadmill can be really fun and there are a lot of things I really like about it. The biggest one being speed control. I use the treadmill for most of my speed training as I don't have access to a track. It's also nice for recovery runs because the surface is easier on my legs. I like it for hill intervals. And also…the movie theater. I would probably dislike the treadmill a lot more if I couldn't watch movies while I ran.
(It sounds like I go to a really fancy gym doesn't it? I don't. It's just a cheap little gym that randomly happens to have a really rad movie theater in it.)
While it was nice to avoid the wintry conditions, running inside did make me a little sad. Could I have gone outside to run? Probably, but the sidewalks weren't clear and I work in a city environment where getting hit by a car would be a very real concern if I ran in the street. So I was very excited to wake up early on Saturday morning to get my long run in outside, freezing temps and more snow in the forecast be damned. I planned a new route and set out at around 6:30 am while my family was still asleep. What I didn't realize at that time was how much FUN running in the early morning during the holidays would be! CHRISTMAS LIGHTS EVERYWHERE!
That big house up there? Yeah not mine. I was terrified that someone was going to see me taking that picture and think I was some kind of criminal. (I promise I'm not.) That was just one of so many beautifully decorated homes I saw. It seemed like everyone who had put lights up had them on. It was quiet and peaceful the way it always seems to get before it snows and I felt like I was the only person awake in the whole world. It was such a neat experience.
I had to traipse through the snow and ice a few times, but since it was early I could mostly run in the street. It was the first time I was able to break in my new shoes on pavement and it made me realize how badly needed those new shoes were!
Today the temperatures won't climb out of the 20's and I'm thinking my lunch run might be another movie date, which might make me a wuss. But I'm so glad I was finally able to get outside for that marvelous 10 miler on Saturday! I think I may need to do it again this weekend!
How do you feel about treadmill runs? Am I crazy for not hating them? Have you done a holiday lights tour on foot?
There is still a little bit of time to enter my iBodyFit giveaway (contest ends at midnight!) so if you haven't entered yet and want to GO HERE!
I hope you all had a wonderful weekend!

How 3D printing is helping 1000 breast cancer survivors
There's a new intervention in the fight against cancer. Thanks to 3D printing, South African survivors can reconstruct their bodies and lives. Nneile Nkholise is a mechanical engineering technologist who works with prosthetic design and manufacturing to ease the trauma felt by breast cancer and mastectomy patients by creating artificial breast forms. Her current goal is to supply 1 000 prostheses to 1 000 women who cannot afford it. By making quality replacements at a lower cost, she's changing the face of medical technology.
Nkholise is the founder of iMedTech Group, a company in Thaba Nchu that uses Additive Manufacturing to fabricate prostheses by adding material in layers with 3D modeling software and layering material. The idea came from Nkholise's studies in Mechanical Engineering at the Central University of Technology. During her Master's research, she discovered that the same processes used for burn victims and patients with facial deformations could also benefit those who have undergone a mastectomy. Her commitment to solving social challenges using emerging technology extends to the field of education. The social entrepreneur also uses 3D printers to create the components for a game she developed, Minute Words, which makes vocabulary building fun for primary school students.
Being a minority in these fields is not easy, but Nkholise is determined to carve a space for others like her to thrive. The iMed Tech Group primarily employs African women under the age of 30 who have mechanical engineering research experience. These technologists have the chance to develop as Nkholise has done. She represented her country at the Global Entrepreneurship Summit in San Francisco and was recognised as one of Africa's top female innovators at the World Economic Forum last year. A feature in Forbes Africa Woman magazine and participation in the Discovery MedTech Silicon-Valley programme and Tony Elumelu Foundation add to her accolades. Her success within the medical science field shows what women from small towns are capable of. Nkholise is changing the perception that technological advancement can only be made by those in first-world spaces.

Bob Brecher has an idea that might solve the admissions conundrum
The silly season this year was much as expected: the best-ever A/AS-level results, naturally, and the usual complaints from admissions tutors and administrators about how offers of three As no longer work as a way of sorting out "the brightest" students.
But the underlying question is real enough: what should we do about admissions? Well, it's true that A-level grades don't pick out the cleverest students, but they never did. With the odd exception, what they did was to function as indicators of class advantage and factors related to it: so, unsurprisingly, they also worked to pick out students likely to need least teaching to get a degree.
So it's easy to see why "objective" admissions tests are once again being touted as a solution: they're a measure of genuine ability and thus not only a reliable predictor, but also an unbiased filter. In short, they're the obvious solution. They sort the administrative nightmare of trying to get the right number of the best students the place can attract - and they're an answer to the rampant inequality of opportunity that continues to characterise British society. Only that's not how they work, as commentators in the US are increasingly pointing out. "Aptitude tests" are culturally saturated. What they "measure" is at best obscure, and the crammers - private or public - can train students to pass them just as efficiently as A/AS levels. All they'd achieve would be to erect a spurious veneer over the present shambles and help us pretend that the emperor had put his clothes back on.
But what should we do? We can't just leave it to "the admissions people" and hope the problem goes away. It won't. So here's the outline of a practical solution. First, let's stop worrying about A/AS grades. We don't worry about the grades people get on access courses - indeed, we're not allowed to. And that's no problem - quite the contrary: because access courses are pass/fail, it's easier for tutors to focus on the knowledge and academic skills people need for degree work, rather than it being the college's "performance" on grades that matters.
Second, let's get serious about widening participation and the idea of university education as a public good, a necessity for any contemporary society. But, of course, the more people who go to university, the more an increasing proportion will need more, not less, good teaching if degrees are not to become glorified GCSEs. So let's spread the load. Prospective students could apply, in order of preference, for a range of subjects, rather than a range of universities. They would be accepted if they had passes in appropriate A/AS levels, access courses and their various equivalents. They would be allocated randomly to a university that taught what they wanted to do, going down the list of preferences as necessary.
The system would have to be tweaked to allow for students who needed to go to university locally and to equalise living expenses in different towns.
Perhaps students could even be allowed individual swaps - easily organised through a website.
The great advantage of such a system would be that departments at every university in the country would have more or less the same proportion of students of various academic abilities, from different social classes and from private and state schools. Virtually the whole participation agenda would be achieved at a stroke, and all of us, at whichever university we worked, would have to make an equal contribution to the demanding teaching that a system of mass higher education requires.
There'd be a bonus too. Since results wouldn't need to be graded, and interviews, open days and so on would be irrelevant, both ends of the process could be managed quickly enough to allow candidates to apply post-qualification.
So, why not? What could be fairer?

We have been unschooling our six children from the beginning up until now. It has not always been a smooth road. Sometimes it feels glorious and other times it feels more like a ship wreck. There is always a extra challenge at this time of year when their friends go off to school and our children stay home. Once again Brenda and I are forced to re examine the what and why of our family life together and honestly consider what is working and what is not and then what to do about it.
This is healthy by the way. I think the only place cruise control works is in our cars. Marriages, businesses, churches, family life and Harley-Davidsons are all in need of regular maintenance. Complete certainty is reserved for the kind of people that no ones wants to be with. If there is a bottom line here it is that our children are the most valuable asset we have and weaving them into our day to day lives remains to be the best thing we can do. Our family is not every family. We all have our own lives to live and if we can find a way to sink deeper into who we are regardless of wether it makes sense to every one else we have a chance at living our lives with a thicker bandwidth and a higher frequency. Think radio before Clear Channel.

Avalanche Advisory
Sunday, February 11th 2018 7:00 am by Wendy Wagner
ARCHIVED ADVISORY - All advisories expire after 24 hours from the posting date/time.
The avalanche danger is currently MODERATE and expected to rise to CONSIDERABLE late tonight and tomorrow in conjunction with snowfall and strong wind. For the daylight hours today, wind slabs up to a foot thick along with lingering larger slabs up to 2' thick will be possible to trigger on slopes with wind deposited snow. Watch for changing conditions and in the event snowfall begins earlier than expected, avalanche danger will begin to rise.
|Show the Complete North American Avalanche Danger Scale
|Travel Advice: Heightened avalanche conditions on specific terrain features. Evaluate snow and terrain carefully; identify features of concern.
|Travel Advice: Heightened avalanche conditions on specific terrain features. Evaluate snow and terrain carefully; identify features of concern.
|Travel Advice: Generally safe avalanche conditions. Watch for unstable snow on isolated terrain features.
One more breezy overcast day is on tap before snowfall begins to fall in earnest tonight. We could see light snowfall add a couple inches through the day, but the bulk of the expected storm snow (6-12") should fall late tonight through Monday morning. Keep in mind, avalanche danger will rise along with snowfall. The new snow will fall on a weak surface and storm snow avalanches should be expected if this storm verifies.
Prior to tonight's snow, our main concern for triggering an avalanche remains with slopes that have seen, or are seeing, wind loading. Ridgetop winds have been moderate to strong over the past 48 hours from a generally East direction. These have scoured some ridges and loaded leeward slopes with the existing loose snow available for transport. Small pockets of wind slabs could be triggered on these leeward slopes and these should be relatively easy to identify (smooth pillowed surfaces and stiffer snow over softer snow). More concerning however, is the possibility of finding a wind slab that is sitting on buried surface hoar 1-2' deep. There are multiple layers of buried surface hoar that sit in the top 2' of the snowpack, which may now be overloaded by wind deposited snow. These types of slabs could be larger than expected and break deeper than your 'typical' wind slab. If you head out today, watch for how the winds are transporting the snow and avoid wind loaded slopes. Additionally, slabs may range from soft or hard and have the potential to break above you once committed to a steep slope.
Wind scouring along the South end of Seattle Ridge yesterday, looking SW from the Eddies ridge (photo: Allen Dahl)
Wind transport just above the trees on Eddies (video: Allen Dahl). Winds are not only loading certain slopes and scouring others, but creating wind crusts as well.
Our snowpack structure is generally poor and weak snow can still be found in the bottom portion of the snowpack at the higher elevations, above 3,000'. Shallow snowpack zones, such as on the South end of Turnagain Pass, Summit Lake and portions of the Girdwood Valley are more pronounced. Although triggering an avalanche breaking deeper in the pack is unlikely, a chance does remain, as a party found the right trigger spot last weekend in the Twin Peaks area. It is worth keeping this poor structure in mind and considering a conservative approach to avoid large steep terrain with shallow snow cover or exposed rock.
Overcast skies filled the region yesterday with windy conditions near and above the trees. Ridgetop winds averaged 15-25mph with gusts to 40mph from a generally East direction. Temperatures were on the warm side, low 20'sF in the Alpine and 30F at 1,000'. A few flurries fell overnight with around an inch of snow recorded at mid-elevations in Girdwood Valley and Turnagain Pass.
Today, a quick moving warm(ish) storm is moving into the area. Snowfall is expected to be light through the daylight hours, with around 1-3" accumulation, then intensify this evening through Monday morning, adding another 6-12". Ridgetop winds are forecast to shift Southeasterly and remain in the 10-20mph range until tonight when they bump up into the 25-35mph range with the heavier snowfall. Temperatures are expected to rise to the mid 20'sF along ridgetops and the mid 30'sF at sea level, this will bring a rain/snow mix to sea level and possibly raise the snow line to ~500'-1,000'.
Monday, light snowfall is expected as the system moves out with a possible 1-3" accumulation. Ridgetop winds look to remain moderate to strong with a shift to Westerly bringing cooler temperatures. Storm total by Monday evening is looking to be around 6-12" of medium density snow at the mid to upper-elevations.

This is a general backcountry avalanche advisory issued for Turnagain Arm with Turnagain Pass as the core advisory area (this advisory does not apply to highways, railroads, or operating ski areas).
Riding status is not associated with avalanche danger. An area will be open to motorized use in accordance to the Forest Management Plan when snow coverage is adequate to protect underlying vegetation. Backcountry hazards including avalanche hazard are always present regardless of the open status of motorized use areas.

Picotte Chronicles ~ Baseball Debacle
"Honey, there's a runner on the field," I said to my husband as we sat in the living room watching the Red Sox play the Yankees at Fenway Park.
He looked at me incredulously, "You're kidding! You better call Talon."
"He's not answering his phone," I responded after trying multiple times with it going directly to voicemail.
"Uh oh…" was his only response. My stomach back flipped.
Our oldest was in Boston, traveling there for a week long training for work. It was his first time visiting Beantown and he wanted to make the most of it, along with his co-workers. They had planned many fun excursions, with the grand finale: a trip to the infamous Fenway Park to watch a Red Sox game. My husband was especially jealous. First, he is usually the one traveling (although he wouldn't admit that to me…) and Boston is a favorite stop that he hasn't been to in awhile. The other main reason is watching the Yankees play. Growing up in upstate New York, the Yankees are his favorite team and the chance to watch them anywhere is an enviable activity for anyone.
Naturally, Paul had been teasing Talon about the game for two weeks prior to his visit. I wasn't included in the loop but there was a text chain the day of the game that went something along the lines of Paul dared Talon to run across the field. Being as they're both in the Navy, Talon joked back and asked if it was a direct order to which Paul replied, of course. Talon then told him okay, I'll do it in the seventh inning. Paul laughed and that was end of that, he thought.
Fast forward to the game, and I had texted back and forth some with Talon during the first part. About the sixth inning, I quit hearing back but didn't think much of it, since I figured he was having fun with his friends. Suddenly on the screen, the batter steps out of the batter's box and laughs. The game pauses ever so slightly and the announcers make a comment of someone extra on the field. The cameras didn't show the runner, of course, not wanting to encourage that kind of behavior. I laugh and tell Paul there is a runner on the field, to which he fills me in on their prior exchange.
We have another group text with some friends so a screenshot of Paul's texts with Talon were sent with a comment that we may or may not have a spontaneous trip to Boston coming up. There might have been an inquiry into a good bail bondsman as well. We are very blessed to have some helpful and far more advanced techie friends. Mandy helped us out with doing a location search for Fenway Park on Instagram and was able to find videos posted with the runner on them. About 30 minutes of us thinking that just possibly, our son ran across the outfield in Boston, we were informed via a screenshot on the group text that he was indeed, not that person! I proudly announced that I knew he wouldn't do that, however I was secretly more than a little relieved.
Needless to say, we finished watching a great baseball game much to my husband's disappointment because the Yankees lost (just barely…)! After the game, we heard from Talon that his phone had died around the sixth inning. He couldn't believe what we went through during the game thinking he was possibly in jail and was thoroughly entertained by it. His only regret was not playing it out further and having one of his friends call us asking for bail money! I don't think my mom heart could have handled that stress!

Sometimes things get a little fuzzy during an afternoon at the pub. Here's a friendly reminder of what you may have missed while you were drinking.
The Padres (41-53) scored fewer runs than the St Louis Cardinals (49-44), 4-2, in the second game of four at Busch Stadium. This game was the first of a day/night doubleheader necessitated by Tuesday night's rainout.
Colin Rea (5-4, 5.01) gave up four runs in six innings on eight hits and three walks while striking out two. In the second inning, Matt Holliday hit a leadoff solo home run. Jedd Gyorko hit a two-run home run with Matt Adams on base in the fourth inning. And Yadier Molina hit a solo home run to lead off the sixth inning.
Carlos Martinez (9-6, 2.85) pitched seven inning, surrendering two runs on four hits and a walk with five strikeouts. The Padres' two runs came in the first inning on Ryan Schimpf's two-run home run. Travis Jankowski led off the game with a double.
This evening at 5:15pm PDT, Paul Clemens makes his Padres debut against Jaime Garcia (6-6, 4.11) at Busch Stadium.

UPDATE: Gundam sold 87,000 copies according to Media Create, making it a very decent effort, and it hopefully helped ship more hardware with the new bundles. Still waiting on the Media Create hardware figures.
Famitsu also showed off its top 100 stories over the course of the year. Browse through and see what was big in Japan. Considering the domination of the 3DS, there seems to be plenty of PlayStation news in among them.

Chapter 1413 – Horrifying Weight
As the human and saint martial artists saw Lin Ming and Blacksalt about to start a brutal battle, they both began to crazily shout out.
"Blacksalt! Tear that brat to shreds!"
"Kill him! Ruin him!"
Blacksalt was a top ranked core disciple of a True Divinity Holy Land. His reputation was extremely high.
"Lin Ming, your human body transformation technique simply isn't a top body transformation technique. It is something that belongs to the dregs of the Concept of the 33 Layered Heavens. Let me show you what the true difference is between our body transformation techniques!"
The Concept of the 33 Layered Heavens were divided into three great categories of essence, energy, and divine. Each category was divided into 11 variations.
Solely the body transformation technique had 11 different methods to practice it. There were those that suited humanity, saints, and there were some variations that suited the monsters and spiritas.
In Blacksalt's opinion, only the saints' body transformation technique had the greatest foundation and was also the strongest variation of the body transformation technique.
Blacksalt roared out and wildly hurtled towards Lin Ming! He understood that Lin Ming was extremely strong, but he still had absolute confidence in himself. He wanted to use this battle to become renowned through the universe! If he could challenge the entire human race without being defeated, then he would be a hero of the saints and obtain enormous rewards. Moreover, the more battles he won, the more confidence he would gain and the greater help this would be to his future growth.
Facing Blacksalt's menacing charge, Lin Ming's eyes flashed with a vicious light. He grasped the Phoenix Blood Spear and opened all of the Eight Inner Hidden Gates!
With a loud explosive sound, a terrifying shockwave erupted from Lin Ming. The rocks beneath his feet began to crack apart like an expanding spider web!
Lin Ming's body transformation technique had already touched upon the threshold of the Nine Stars of the Dao Palace. In addition, when Lin Ming had entered Primordius Heavenly Palace, he had directed grandmist energy to enter his body. Using the grandmist energy that was as heavy as a star, he had tempered his own skeleton and muscles, withstanding pain that an ordinary man would not be able to bear.
Empyrean Primordius had sealed a massive amount of grandmist energy within the Primordius Gate. That was no longer elementary grandmist energy, but true grandmist energy!
The intensity of Lin Ming's mortal body had reached unbelievable degrees.
Without using any true essence, without using any Laws, and by only relying on the mortal strength of his body as well as his astral essence, he welcomed the rampaging Blacksalt!
"Eight Inner Hidden Gates – Hundred Layered Waves!"
Lin Ming shouted out loud, pouring all of his strength into the Phoenix Blood Spear. Lin Ming's strength had nearly reached a billion jins. Now, as he used the Hundred Layered Waves, it was like an infinitely high tide, smashing through the world!
"Mm!? Lin Ming wants to use his body transformation technique to deal with Blacksalt?"
"The body transformation technique isn't a domain that humans excel in. Even if Lin Ming dual cultivates in body and energy, his methods aren't extraordinary. What he excels in the most is the essence gathering system!"
The human martial artists cried out in alarm. As for the saint race martial artists, they repeatedly jeered out loud, waiting for Lin Ming to be sent flying back by Blacksalt.
"You are seeking death!"
Blacksalt roared out and three bone spikes on his back stabbed forwards like a sharp trident. With the support of his bodily strength, astral essence exploded outwards!
In that moment, Lin Ming instantly struck out with a hundred spears. These hundred spears fused together as one, violently crashing into Blacksalt.
A terrifying explosion followed as massive chunks of rock burst into powder. Lin Ming was sent flying backwards and Blacksalt's form shook. Blacksalt's barrier of astral essence had shattered, but because of his powerful mortal body, those shockwaves of spear light had been completely withstood by him without any injuries at all.
As for Lin Ming, he was sent flying hundreds of feet backwards by Blacksalt. Although he wasn't injured, it was still Blacksalt who gained the advantage in this collision.
Even so, Blacksalt couldn't accept this result. This was because Lin Ming hadn't used any true essence at all!
"This boy, how could his body transformation technique be so fierce? Then just what degree has his essence gathering system reached?"
"Blacksalt, ruin that boy, wreck him into pieces!" The surrounding saints began to wildly shout out. Blacksalt sending Lin Ming flying back in that strike just now had caused their morale to rapidly rise, shaking like an earthquake.
Blacksalt's body rushed out once more. On his claws, a divine fire seemed to burn. As he slashed out with his claws, the void seemed to shake. It was hard to imagine how powerful this attack was.
Lin Ming flourished the Phoenix Blood Spear, watching Blacksalt hurtle towards him. When he had used the Celestial Tyrant Manual's Hundred Layered Waves just now to attack Blacksalt, the result was that he hadn't been able to take the advantage. Blacksalt was a martial artist that specialized in the body transformation technique. If Lin Ming had defeated him there, then his many years of cultivating the body transformation technique would have been nothing but a waste.
However, Lin Ming's body transformation technique wasn't as simple as just the Eight Inner Hidden Gates!
"Emerge, grandmist energy!"
A keen light flashed in Lin Ming's eyes. A wisp of grandmist energy left his inner world, covering Lin Ming's arms and the Phoenix Blood Spear.
A little bit of grandmist energy was as heavy as a star. With a wisp of grandmist energy attached to Lin Ming's spear, a single strike was like wielding a thousand mile mountain range!
"You boast that your body transformation is unrivalled, but let me see whether you can withstand the weight of my spear!"
Lin Ming opened the Eight Inner Hidden Gates once more. The Phoenix Blood Spear swept out, crashing down like a blood red divine mountain range!
Blacksalt's claws smashed together with Lin Ming's Phoenix Blood Spear.
With a deafening explosion, Blacksalt's body shook. His protective astral essence shattered beneath the Phoenix Blood Spear as if it were nothing but glass!
Blacksalt was aghast. He knew how durable his protective astral essence was, and yet it had been so easily broken by Lin Ming's casual spear strike!?
At this time, Lin Ming's second spear strike came crashing down.
Blacksalt's complexion changed. He wanted to avoid it, but at this moment a boundless and ancient power enveloped him, surrounding the entire void within a range of a thousand feet. Blacksalt's movements immediately slowed!
Grandmist space!
"This is bad!"
The speed that Blacksalt was so proud of was bound by the grandmist space. He grit his teeth, erupting his astral essence to the limit as he used the spikes on his back to resist Lin Ming's attack.
Lin Ming sneered and brought his two arms crashing down. The Phoenix Blood Spear smashed into Blacksalt's back. This strike directly broke through Blacksalt's three bone spikes and the Phoenix Blood Spear continued unabated, pounding into him and causing his back to burst apart in a bloody mess before he was sent flying away!
Blacksalt miserably screamed out. He plummeted downwards like a meteor.
With a ringing sound, Blacksalt crashed into the ground, sending countless chunks of rock flying up. He was like a comet that crashed into the earth!
This sudden turn in the tables had surpassed everyone's expectations. The saint race martial artists all cried out in horror. At this time, Blacksalt emerged from the rubble. The saint race martial artists had an incomparably horrifying defensive power. Even though Blacksalt had received such heavy wounds, he was still able to forcefully bear it.
Blacksalt's body was covered in blood. His skin and flesh had cracked open. As he looked up to the sky, he found that Lin Ming had disappeared.
Before he could respond, an extremely dreadful weight pressed down on his back.
This strength was as heavy as 10 million mountains. Not even Blacksalt could withstand it.
He miserably coughed, his four limbs shaking.
Blacksalt's eyes turned blood red. Lin Ming was clearly riding atop Blacksalt's back. The current metamorphosed Blacksalt was similar in shape to a large tiger. As Lin Ming rode atop his back, it was similar to a man riding his mount.
To Blacksalt this was the ultimate humiliation. As a proud martial artist of the saints, just how arrogant was he? How could he allow a human to ride atop his back?
Blacksalt angrily roared out. He wanted to jump up and throw off Lin Ming, but at this time, Lin Ming fused his grandmist energy onto the Phoenix Blood Spear and brought it pounding down!
The Phoenix Blood Spear's shaft solidly smacked onto Blacksalt's back. Blacksalt's ruined back exploded once more. With the terrifying weight still pressing down on him, his body shook and he spat out a mouthful of blood. His knees weakened and he was forced to the ground.
Rocks constantly crumbled beneath them. Underneath this weight, Blacksalt was forced to the ground!
"This… what is going on here?"
"He's riding on Blacksalt's back! Some terrifying weight has forced Blacksalt to his knees. It's impossible for him to do anything, let alone throw off Lin Ming!"
The situation had rapidly reversed. At the start, Blacksalt had won a minor advantage when he sent Lin Ming flying back a few hundred feet. But after that, it was Lin Ming who had beaten down Blacksalt!
Lin Ming grasped the Phoenix Blood Spear and pointed it at Blacksalt's back. If it weren't for the barrier of grandmist space, Blacksalt would have already been buried in the ground. Now, he was unable to stand up no matter how much he wanted to. He vomited out great gulps of blood, dying the earth red.
With a human standing on his back and forcing him down with his spear, Blacksalt found this humiliation unbearable. He struggled as hard as he could, but no matter how much he tried, nothing worked.
"Damn! Damn it all!"
Blacksalt had never felt so helpless in his life. He had always been proud of his mortal body, but this current feeling was like squatting on the ground with someone pushing him down with just a single finger, making him unable to stand up.
Many saint martial artists were bewildered. None of them understood just what sort of mysteries were on Lin Ming's Phoenix Blood Spear and why Blacksalt was pressed down so hard that he couldn't stand up.
The human martial artists were also confused. But, this didn't stop them from cheering for Lin Ming. Ever since the great calamity began and the saint race had invaded, the human race had suffered one defeat after another!
The only incident that was able to show the strength of humanity had been the negotiations of Mount Potala and Empyrean Divine Dream completely refusing all of the saint race's treaty conditions. At the same time, Lin Ming had also jumped a boundary and a half to challenge the Good Fortune Saint Son to a life or death battle in a hundred years. However, when this matter was put in pleasant terms then Lin Ming had courage to face this challenge. But, if it was put in coarser terms then Lin Ming was simply a fool who had bitten off more than he could chew.
In these past days, the humans had been oppressed and mocked by the saints again and again. They desperately needed a victory to boost their morale and confidence!
"Lin Ming! Lin Ming!"
"Make him so that he can't step ever again!"
The human martial artists all shouted out, releasing all the pressure in their hearts.
And at this time, an indifferent voice sounded out.
This voice seemed to come from the icy cold nine nether abyss, causing the heated battlefield audience to quiet down.
The young human elites felt their hearts skip a beat as a chill filled the air.
Lin Ming's mind stirred. He received the Phoenix Blood Spear and looked up at the void.
There, space distorted and a thin, white-clothed youth appeared. His face wasn't too handsome, but his aura was swift and fierce. He was pale like jade and his eyes were sharp. His entire body exuded an evil atmosphere.

In this post I'll share with you, hypothetical readers, the progress of our Unmanned Program.
With the new Stayputnik probe core, we are now able to completely control vessels remotely, this of course, implicitly means some advantages. First off, the safety of not exposing our crew to the dangers of space travel, the probes will be able to explore further without the need of resources kerbonauts need, also to test out transfer trajectories, collect science data and scan remote planets.
There are some difficulties too, to send commands and remotely control probes will need a connection with the KSC, either directly or relayed by other antennas. This means all sort of complications could arise in practice, everything has to be carefully planned ahead of time with plenty margin for error.

Israel Celebrates 66th Birthday!
66 years ago today, Prime Minister David Ben-Gurion announced Israel's independence at midnight (May 14, 1948 on the Hebrew calendar). Below is an excerpt from his speech:
"The Land of Israel was the birthplace of the Jewish People. Here the spiritual, religious, and national identity was formed. Here they achieved independence and created a culture of national and universal significance. Here they wrote and gave the Bible to the world....
"We, the members of the National council...hereby declare the establishment of a jewish state in Eretz-Israel, to be known as the State of Israel."
On this exciting day 66 years ago, Israel was reborn, that ended 2,000 years of exile, which was clearly written about by the prophets in Scripture, even as far back as Moses. Although there was always a remnant in the land, most were exiled by force and brutality.
God has regathered the Jewish people who were scattered, from the four corners of the earth. They continue to return, fulfilling God's promise, right before our eyes. A clear prophecy currently being fulfilled is Amos 9:14-15:
"'I will bring back the captives of My people Israel; They shall build the waste cities and inhabit them; They shall plant vineyards and drink wine from them; They shall also make gardens and eat fruit from them. I will plant them in their land, and no longer shall they be pulled up from the land I have given them,' Says the Lord your God."
This is yet one more testimony that God will do what He says He will do. We can trust Him because He has proven this over and over again. Throughout the ages, the Jewish people have been persecuted, with repeated attempts to annihilate them. However, God preserved this people group and is now fulfilling His promise to return them to the land of Israel!
Happy Birthday, Israel!

Aloha everyone! Now that weʻre in a new month (and new year!) it is time to evaluate the success (or failure) of last monthʻs Essential Clothing Challenge.
As you may recall, during December 2018 I was working to find the most efficient way to keep, wear, and wash clothes. I reduced down to just 33 items of clothing and only did laundry once a week.
How did it go? Pretty good, actually. In this post Iʻm going to share the details with you. Iʻll talk about both the positive and negative results. Plus, Iʻll mention what I might have done differently.
Iʻm also going to provide a general framework that you can use to try this challenge for yourself. And finally, Iʻll wrap it up with my plans to improve and continue my clothing system in the future.
Ready? E hele kākou! ("Letʻs go!")
Positive Results of the Essential Clothing Challenge
As I said, this was a pretty successful challenge. Here are the broad strokes:
I could only do one load of laundry a week, which worked out just fine. Usually, this was on the weekend. Since there were 5 weekends in December I did 5 loads of laundry. This means a lot less water and soap used, and it was a big saving in both time and money.
During the week I never thought "Oh, I wish I had a clean [whatever]," because I knew I had just enough clothes for the week. It was actually a relief to only have to think about washing my clothes once. Stress reduction for the win!
Weekly Evaluation
Each week I evaluated the clothes I hadnʻt worn during the week. If they were things I didnʻt need or wasnʻt using I put them in my clothing storage box. Sometimes I would keep clothes around for another week if I thought I might need them. But if they were in the "didnʻt use" category more than one week in a row then I stored them away.
I was posting up regular updates on the clothes I didnʻt use on Instagram, so you probably saw those as the month progressed.
I also checked to see if there was something I might need that I didnʻt have. In the whole month, I only needed 2 items. Not too bad! (Iʻll talk more about those in a minute.) It means I was pretty accurate with the type of things I would need during the month.
Clothes I removed
Here is a list of the clothing items I ended up putting into the storage box.
- 1 button up shirt
- 1 workout pants
- 1 pair of underwear
- 1 pair of socks
- 1 pair of casual shorts
- 1 pair of jeans
- 1 jacket
I find that pretty amazing. I started with 33 items and still got rid of 7 of them! That brought me down to a total of 26 items.
Clothes I added
Here are the items of clothing I added to my closet:
- 1 pair of shorts (workout, lounging)
- 1 spare pajama top
Iʻll explain why these were added in a moment, but overall this isnʻt too bad. It brought me up to just 28 items.
Clothes I ended up with
So, here is a final list of the clothes that I ended up with in my closet:
- 2 jeans
- 1 shorts
- 4 t-shirts
- 7 pairs underwear
- 7 pairs socks
- 1 set pajamas (shorts / t-shirt)
- 2 button-up shirts
- 1 pair shoes
- 1 pair house slippers
- 1 sweatshirt
- 1 spare pajama top
The amount of room these take up are pretty minor. I could fit them all in a small carry-on sized bag. This is a closer step to my "Own Your Age" idea. (Maybe a future challenge?)
Negative Results of the Essential Clothing Challenge
Of course, there are some negative results. Not a lot, though. Here are a few things worth mentioning:
Naked Laundry
The challenge with having enough clothes for the week is that, when youʻre washing all those clothes, you donʻt have anything to wear. I prefer not to do my laundry while naked, so that means I needed something to wear while the rest of my clothes were in the machine.
My solution to this was to bring on another pair of shorts and another pajama t-shirt. I could cycle through the shirt once a week. One would be in the laundry basket while I was using the other.
With the pajama shorts I have, they are actually swim trunks. That means they are quick-drying. So, my solution for those is that I will hand-wash them once a week. In the future when I start doing some swimming at the YMCA, it will be even easier to keep them clean since I can wash and rinse them after a swim.
I actually did hand-wash the swim shorts once during the month and it was pretty painless.
Hand Washing FTW
I could have done more hand washing. I know that it goes against the whole "do laundry just once a week" idea. But hand washing is pretty simple. Especially for underwear and socks. I couldnʻt / wouldnʻt do it with pants and shirts, but for light, small items it is easy to do.
So, while it went against the idea of this challenge, in the future I would incorporate hand-washing into the mix. Of course, this means that I would have to swap out a few things …
Multi-Use Clothing
The clothes I have are of "okay" quality. Theyʻre sturdy enough, but theyʻre not really optimized or designed for extended, repeated use.
There are some really amazing clothes out there for minimalist digital nomads. Like, waterproof and anti-microbial t-shirts you can wear a whole week without them smelling or getting gross. Or pants that have a similar quality. Same with underwear and socks.
In the future, as each of my current items wear out, I plan to replace them with higher quality items that will be better for multiple uses and hand-washing. Naturally, those items are more expensive. But if you amortize the cost over their useful life, then it works out pretty much the same.
If I did that I could reduce my overall clothing count by a significant amount. But Iʻll share more details on that in a moment …
What I learned from my Essential Clothing Challenge
This challenge has reinforced some of my ideas about how I use clothing. Specifically …
Wearing clothes multiple times is not gross
Really, it depends on what you do during the day.
I spend most of my day in an air-conditioned office (or car), expending a minuscule amount of energy while sitting at a desk. My clothes donʻt really get smelly or worn out.
Jeans, which are the main pants I wear, can be worn multiple times. Iʻve tested the boundaries of that and I would say that 3 to 4 days of use out of one washing is about the limit. If I was more active, then maybe that goes down to 2 days. In fact, that is why I reduced my jeans from 3 to 2. I just didnʻt need that third pair.
The other important thing is to shower regularly. I usually shower every evening before I go to bed, and then I do a rinse off in the morning before getting ready. Essentially, Iʻm showering one and a half times a day.
(Plus, the bonus of showering or taking a bath at night is that it improves the quality of your sleep.)
Jackets are not necessary in Hawaiʻi
I mean, itʻs Hawaiʻi, right? I probably wore my jacket once during the whole month.
I would say the best type of jacket to have would be a light rain jacket. We do get squalls and rain flurries from time to time, so having some rain protection is handy. If you had a rain jacket with a soft, warmer lining for cold, air-conditioned rooms, that would be the best.
Hmm … is there such a thing? I might have just come up with a great Kickstarter idea! 🙂
The main thing is to know your environment. But Iʻll talk about that more in the framework below.
Quality trumps quantity
As I alluded to before, having high quality, multi-use-friendly clothing is a better solution than having a lot of cheap clothes that get torn easily or are hard to keep clean.
This is especially true with underwear and socks. And then shirts to a lesser degree. Good quality underwear and socks can be a lifesaver. Exofficio or Darn Tuffs are excellent for each of those. Merino wool, FTW.
This means you have to take care of your clothes and canʻt treat them like junk. If you are haphazard with your clothes, then shopping at Goodwill is probably a better bet. If you treat your clothes carefully then more expensive items will last long enough to make it worthwhile.
What I would do differently with the Essential Clothing Challenge
So, based on the experiences in December 2018, I would make the following specific adjustments:
I would add in every-other-day (or maybe daily) hand-washing of underwear and socks (and possibly t-shirt). It only takes a couple minutes and reduces the total number of items needed.
In fact, based on the hand-washing, I could change my list to the following:
- 1 rain sweater (rain cover with soft insides)
- 2 jeans/pants
- 4 t-shirts
- 1 button-up shirt
- 3 pairs of underwear
- 3 pairs of socks
- 1 pair pajamas (shorts, t-shirt)
- 1 workout shorts
- 1 pair of shoes
- 1 pair of slippers
That brings the total number of clothes to just 18! (Well, 19 if you count the pajamas separately.) Not too shabby. And this is actually a perfect list for someone who travels consistently, like a digital nomad. You might need a few weather-specific items like a beanie hat, gloves and a warm jacket (or long johns), but that isnʻt too bad.
A Framework for You
So, this is all fine and good, but what does it have to do with you and your overstuffed closet? (Assuming you have an overstuffed closet, of course.)
Well, I thought I would put together a quick framework that you could use to embark on your own Essential Clothing Challenge. These are five steps that I think will help with your process. Of course, this is just a general blueprint, so feel free to adjust things to match your own situation.
Step 1: Evaluate Your Laundry
That's right. The first step doesn't actually have to do with your clothes. We're going to start by looking at your clothes "maintenance". The question to ask is:
How often do you want to do your laundry?
And then the second question is:
How many loads of laundry do you want to do at one time?
The answers to these questions determine the quantity and type of clothing that you need to have on hand.
For me, I aimed to do one load of laundry a week. That means I needed 7 days worth of clothes. If your goal is to do two loads of laundry every other week, then you would need 14 days worth of clothes.
Of course, then that begs the next question about what a "day worth of clothes" means for you.
Step 2: Evaluate Your Clothing Use
This step involves taking a look at your life and the things you do each day. I tend to categorize activities based on 4 main areas:
- Casual: Hanging out with friends
- Exercise: Going to the gym
- Formal: Business attire or an evening at the opera
- Sleep: What you wear to bed
You have to determine how many of these types of activities you do each week. I have "casual" as the default. Every day requires one "casual" outfit.
If you shower before sleeping, then one sleepwear for the whole week is probably fine. If you tend to fall asleep with some grime on your body, then you might want to increase that frequency.
Then, depending on how often you need to dress up and/or how often you go workout, that will add on other types.
For example, if you are a university student who goes to the gym 3 times a week and works as a barista, then you need one casual outfit per day, along with 3 exercise outfits per week.
If you are a banker who gets a casual Friday, and you never exercise, then you'll need the standard daily casual (for after work) and 4 days of formal outfits (which can be interchangeable, depending on how you use them).
Finally, you should ask yourself what the weather is like where you live. There Is a big difference between the clothing needs for someone in Norway than for someone in Tanzania.
Step 3: Can You Hand-Wash?
If you don't know how to hand-wash clothes and have zero interest in it, then you can probably skip this step. But, hand-washing is actually pretty painless so I'd recommend giving it a try. It is especially handy when you are traveling. I've traveled to Beijing for a month with only 2 pairs of underwear and survived just fine since I was able to hand-wash them.
By the way, a pro-hack tip from my wife is, if you have a shirt that is mostly clean, you can just wash the armpits with soapy water and then have them dry overnight. You don't' need to wash the whole shirt if it doesn't stink or isn't dirty. Just wash the parts that need it and you'll be able to squeeze out another day's use.
So, the idea here is that, if you are okay with hand washing your underwear or delicates, then you can save a lot of washes in the machine, and reduce the number of items you need on-hand.
Step 4: Plan Out Your Wardrobe
Just like planning out what you're going to eat during the week, you should also plan out the clothes you are going to wear.
Figure out each day ahead of time, and put your clothes out the night before. It only takes 2 minutes and it saves a lot of brain power in the morning.
Step 5: Fold Your Clothes
I know this might sound silly, but carefully folding your clothes after doing your laundry is really helpful. It sets your mental state and helps you feel connected with your plan to stay organized and efficient with your clothes.
I recommend the Konmari method of clothes folding. But, really, you can do whatever helps you out. It's a mental hack, and I'm not totally sure why it works, but it does. I guess it is sort of like making your bed in the morning. Something about being deliberate, in the moment and taking time to be fully engaged is pretty significant.
Bonus Step: Keep Evaluating
As a last step, it is helpful to keep evaluating how you are using your clothes, how your laundry is progressing, and adjusting as you move forward. It is important to stay flexible and not get hung up on specifics or get too rigid.
My Future Essential Clothing Plan
Given how easy it was to implement this clothing challenge, I donʻt really plan to stop this method any time soon. Doing laundry once a week and keeping to a small list of essential clothing is perfect to keep my life stress-free(er).
As time goes on I will probably continue to keep reducing my clothes. Iʻll "A.B.E." (Always Be Evaluating) my clothing needs.
For the clothes I currently have in bags and boxes, I will keep them stored for a few more months and eventually take them to Goodwill. If I donʻt look for them in the next several months then they are probably not necessary.
Eventually, Iʻm also going to swap out the items with higher quality ones. I already mentioned going for better underwear, socks, and shirts. But from now on my shopping is about quality over quantity. There is some pretty amazing travel-friendly clothing out there that I canʻt wait to try someday. I will try to do this over the next 2.5 years until the end of my current Walkabout Journey.
Of course, I will also try to get clothing at a low cost. But as I mentioned, if I can get something that lasts 4 times as long (or can be used 4 times as much) for only twice the price, then that is actually a better ROI on my money. If you look at the cost of clothes as a "dollar per use" equation, then that changes things. Would you rather pay $0.05 for each time you wear a shirt, or $0.01? Even if the shirt costs more, youʻll end up saving money in the long run.
My personal goal is to get to a TRUE 15 items by 2020. I want to have all my clothes easily fit in a small backpack. I will most likely return to this challenge at some point when I feel things are going off the rails. So stay tuned for that down the line.
To Sum Up
So, this first challenge was definitely a success. Iʻm really happy with how things turned out.
Of course, Iʻd love for this to help someone else out there too. If you end up using the five-step framework that I shared in this post then please let me know! Iʻm curious if Iʻm just a freak of nature or if this is something that could apply to someone elseʻs life. Try challenging yourself and see how it goes! 🙂
If you have any questions, please leave them in the comments below. And be sure to follow me on my social channels at YouTube and Instagram. Iʻm also starting up a Twitter feed so you can subscribe to that as well.
Oh! And be sure to sign up for the newsletter too! Itʻs still in the initial stages but Iʻll be using it pretty soon to get the word out on my latest challenges and walkabout adventures.
Until next time … a hui hou!

49 : Ian and Tracy
Two weeks before the wedding, I received an email from Ian. He said, "Given the unfortunate conditions of the Toronto Island...we have decided to switch venues…We are also considering holding a smaller and more intimate ceremony in our apartment…Would you be available to take pictures at this ceremony before we all head over to the main event?"
If you've been following my blog for more than a hot sec, you might be aware that I've recently been exploring the intimacy of the home as a backdrop for photos. Was I available?? I jumped at the opportunity to photograph Ian and Tracy's wedding in their new home on Bathurst Street in Toronto. The day of their wedding, we squished their closest friends and family into their cozy living room. I staked out my one-foot square spot as the photographer and shot 90% of their ceremony photos from there. Pressed between people, the ceremony was full of laughter and support for the couple. For those of you who missed the ceremony, we've decided to share the vows here.
Ian's Vows
I have been yours, and you mine, for the past seven years. At first, publically professing our love seemed unnecessary; our love was for each other and no one else. But as I've grown older with you, I realize more and more the primacy of family and friends. Giving love, rather than only taking it, is one of the many lessons you've imparted. This makeshift ceremonial space—our new home—is currently filled with loved ones. And I'm happy to let them into our union.
We've shared our life for nearly a decade now. We have already been through the ebbs and flows of happiness and sorrow together. We have relocated across the country together. We have traveled across the ocean together. We have lived far above and far below the ground together. We have created a loving home for our two feline children, one unwaveringly precocious and one increasingly skittish. We love them all the same. I have supported you with every change in character and career; you have done the same for me. Whether during the extreme moments, like waiting into the wee hours of the morning while you were in emergency surgery, or during the prosaic moments, like simply admiring your beauty over dinner, I have had many hours to reflect on why I love you.
You are the empathetic, calm, caring, klutzy, eager, gregarious, self-deprecating, bright, stylish optimist I need. You temper and complement the bad and good qualities of myself. I want to keep spending our lives together. I want you near for the rest of my moments—for the rest of our moments. I love you.
Tracy's Vows
My love for you today is as strong as it was seven years ago. When we first met, I never thought I was meeting my best friend and future husband. You have accepted me and all that I am with such an amazing amount of love and kindness and you have shown me that I never have to go through anything alone, including emergency surgery.
With every trial we face, we grow stronger as people and even stronger as a pair. With every change in our lives, with every move and every new job, we become closer and more in love. You challenge me to think in ways that I never have before, to take a moment and breathe when I need to, and to always be open and honest with the things that I am having difficulties with. You are always there when I need help or when I need a hug. You are the voice of reason when I need one and the encouraging push when I am full of doubt. You never judge me when I cry, even if it is at The Simpsons.
I feel like I have known you my entire life and cannot wait to spend the rest of it with you. I more than lesbian you forever. I love you.
In my short time with Ian and Tracy, I saw a rare combination of support and autonomy between them. This was apparent in their vows as well which talk about their love that has evolved through a variety of changes. Later, their reception at the Artscape Sandbox was full of authentic laughter and joy as their community celebrated with them.

"Freedom is the right to choose: the right to create for yourself the alternatives of choice. Without the possibility of choice and the exercise of choice a man is not a man but a member, an instrument, a thing …"
–Archibald MacLeish
Spirituality involves the freedom to change; it requires the variety of choice in order to grow.
My past addiction was a life of slavery because it removed from me creative choice and left me obsessing about drugs and alcohol. My life, conversation and thoughts revolved around the bottle, and I was oblivious to the true meaning of life. I could not "do better" in my life because I was addicted not only to drugs but to the destructive lifestyle that goes with them. My freedom to experience the spiritual power of God's creativity was lost to a mindless craving for drugs; in this sense, drug addiction is slavery.
Today I am free to see God's world in people, places and things and I make a choice to live, love and laugh.

Inside Jujumade's Magical Mount Washington Studio
Having studied Industrial Design at Pasadena's prestigious Art Center College of Design, Juliana Hung injects her jewelry and accessories line Jujumade with playful, adjustable details that make her pieces as fun as they are functional. Besides having been worn by goddess of everything stylish and cool, Solange, Hung's products also happen to be sold by some pretty prestigious stockists including Garmentory, Myrtle, and Individual Medley. All that said, it's pretty impressive that the designer still handles most of the creative process herself in her home studio in scenic Mount Washington.
We got to take a look inside Hung's live/work space, which boasts a stunning city view and plant-filled porch (conducive to creativity, contemplative moments, and coffee clutching) where she gave us a sneak peek at some of her latest projects and shared a bit of her daily design routine.
