In this session report, Mark and Jeff talk about a play session of Fantasy Flight Games' re-issue of DungeonQuest. They give an overview of the session's events, and focus a bit on some of the updates to this 3rd edition of the game: the combat system and the player character characteristics and abilities. Mark and Jeff give their opinions of these updates, and decide whether this edition might still be able to fill the role of a filler game, even with all its embellishments.
As always, we'd LOVE to hear from you, so please post a comment to this blog entry (at www.gameopolis.org or gameopolis.libsyn.com), or send us an email at firstname.lastname@example.com!
Stay tuned for Show 18.0, coming to you faster than a DungeonQuest sunset!

Wed, 11 January 2012
This is the first of a spin-off series that we are calling the Gameopolis CarCast. The idea behind the CarCast is that whenever Mark and Jeff are commuting in the car together (talking about games and related topics, as always) we'll record the conversation --AND, if it sounds like a discussion we think our listeners would be interested in, we'll post it up here as a CarCast. Our CarCasts are completely independent of the regular Gameopolis podcasts, and are brought to you totally unplanned, and largely unedited (we only cut out the part where we argued about whether to go straight here and circle around the park, OR hang a left at this intersection and then turn right at the Gas Station). Also, there won't be any schedule for releasing the CarCasts, so you may detect some anachronisms in dates we refer to in the CarCasts relative to the shows' release dates.
We'll be back with the next regular installment of Gameopolis --Show 17.5-- very soon. Until then, we hope you enjoy the random musings of the Gameopolis CarCast!

This is a guest post by Bizymoms.com Management
It's a big decision to stay home with your family, rather than continue in a traditional job outside the home. But did you know that there are many choices if you decide to do so?
The first step before starting a work from home business is to forget about the business all together. Don't think about what kind of business you want or what you want from it or anything like that. Next, write down your life. What have you accomplished in your lifetime so far? What things have you not done that you thought you would have done by now. What things would you like to accomplish or do in the years to come?
Look at your answers and write down goals for yourself. What would you like to achieve and by when would you like to achieve them. What will it take to achieve these goals? Are you in a position now that you will be able to achieve your goals? If not, why not?
These answers and goals should be your motivation for whatever you decide to do. So now you hopefully know what you want out of life!
Getting what you want in life usually involves knowing what you want first. If you get what you want before you even know you wanted it, consider yourself lucky, and don't throw it away before you realize its value.
There are several advantages to working from your home including flexible working hours, low overhead, and more available time to work while other people are commuting to their jobs. Obviously the appeal of one or more of these can be more than enough for many of us to give working from home a try.
And who knows, maybe a few minutes, hours, or days later, you'll land a big sale or be rewarded for your efforts like never before. And then you'll be reminded that, YES! You are doing the right thing! That the "crazy" idea of starting your own home-based business was actually the BEST decision you've ever made.
Here are the Top 10 reasons for moms to start a home business
– Save on Day Care costs
– No commuting
– More flexibility
– Spend more time with your family
– Save on office attire and lunches
– Helps you to do something you like
– To be able to say 'I own a business'
– You don't have to execute your boss's ideas
– Satisfied with your own achievements
– Your time is invested for your betterment
As you can see the benefits are numerous. Take some time today to see if starting a home business is the right choice for you. List the costs of commuting and working outside of your home. List the perks to being home for your children everyday, list the "downers" too. Also make a list of the space, equipment and skills you already possess that will aid you in starting a home based business. And finally, make a list of the possible businesses you could start with the equipment and skill set you just listed. Writing down your thoughts and assets is a great way to see the whole picture as it pertains to you and your family. You may be very surprised where your lists lead you. Give it a try!

Serving Minneapolis, Minnesota and the greater Suburban Communities
"Plymouth-Holy Name Cemetery is located on the corner of Holy Name Drive and a county road. Its across the street from a brick church. Reports of misty headlights pull in and vanish before your eyes. Witnesses have heard voices, footsteps, when it was horribly windy while calm outside the cemetery, and have seen a white apparition." - theshadowlands.net
This image is provided by GoogleEarth and is a satellite view of Holy Name Cemetery. The cemetery is the open portion(little foliage) and in full is roughly 150 yards in length and 75 yards in width. There is a small man-made pond pictured to the south of the grounds and the road to the west is Holy Name Drive.(Not pictured, but viewable is Holy Name Lake which is west of the cemetery) - The above photo is also a link to a GoogleMap of the precise location of Holy Name(latitude and longitude). This is a public place and is open to anyone, if you decide to visit, please be respectful of the grounds.
With a lack of tangible resources to provide for this, I have very little information to post. One thing of interest is the age and descent of the older headstones found here. Typically of German decent and the stones date back to the mid to late 1800's.
We did survey the area prior to investigation with a mindset of understanding both the surroundings and reports while viewing. This was an invaluable aspect of the investigation overall, based on the surrounding areas and our ability to view the cemetery and surroundings during peak sunlight hours. We were able to view the neighboring homes and also the surrounding roads and access points. This proved later to be extremely helpful in the "debunking" of Holy Name Cemetery.
As stated above there are a few separate reports of experiences and activity. I will try and explain these as best I can with what evidence we gathered and the theories behind them. This will be proposed as a "list style" presentation and our reports will follow. The trouble with this report is its lack of sourcing and greater detail into the accounts, which tends to leave us searching for alternate probabilities and reasoning. With nothing else to go off of, we began our investigation with an emphasis on the "debunking" of these accounts.
- "Misty Headlights" - Although we didn't experience this first-hand, we did come up with some ideas as to what may have been seen. The cemetery is surrounded by roads, drives, driveways and the like. There is in fact no place at Holy Name that isn't encompassed by some sort of drive that is meant to facilitate vehicles. One theory behind this(without knowing which entrance the "misty headlights" were seen) is the driveway belonging to the home owner at the NW end of the cemetery. Without being there during the daytime, it would be hard to notice this home and drive and could cause someone to believe that a car pulled up and "vanished". With the mist aspect of the report, one factor that will be discussed multiple times in this report is Holy Name Lake. A sizable body of water and something that could contribute to the mist and/or fog that caused the disappearance of the car. Advection Fog is something that came to mind in this scenario and that is simply a cooler air mass moving over a warmer body of water. This is the situation in San Francisco Bay and is the cause of the deep fogging that occurs there. This is due to the warm air moving in from the Pacific and passing over the cold California current. My thoughts are that this could either mask the moving vehicle or cause it to seemingly disappear when in all actuality it did nothing of the sort. The last item to take into consideration is what happens in the cemetery at night. We didn't realize, even during our pre-investigation that Holy Name is saturated with solar lighting of the newer headstones. The best I can describe it is a Christmas tree at night and without knowing that during the day, was quite surprising upon arrival for the investigation. The "headlight" report could have been a reflection off of the pond from two of these lights, which given the proper formula, could mimic a set of headlights.
- "Voices and Footsteps" - One theory that was proposed by a member of the team was in direct correlation with Holy Name Lake. His thoughts were that some of the houses occupants that live directly on the shore could have been outdoors during the experiences and causing the sounds to travel across the lake, therefore causing a disembodied type phenomenon. As we know, sound is just as susceptible to friction and obstruction as any other from of energy. When sound is unobstructed, it can travel great distances and can sound quite close and/or audible to the unknowing individual. That seemed the most plausible theory generated by any one of us. Again, I will mention the surrounding neighborhood and its close proximity to the cemetery. If you didn't know someone literally lived within 25-30 feet of the cemetery border, then a voice or something of the like may be misinterpreted as a unexplained voice phenomenon. Same can be said for the footsteps, which could be caused by neighboring people walking near their homes. It's quite possible an individual was talking a late night stroll and startled the individuals whom were at the site at that time. The last aspect to mention is that we did hear a sound which was similar to shriek or wail. We concluded that it was an animal of some type, whether it be avian or mammal, it wasn't a human sound.
- "Windy in Cemetery, While Calm Outside" - This one was a little tricky and had it not been for a course I recently took in college, it may have been considered unexplained. This was, to us, strictly a meteorology based scenario and something that if you didn't have some prior knowledge to, could be quite awkward. Holy Name Lake lies due west from the cemetery, separated by Holy Name Drive and about 100 feet. In the northern hemisphere, the prevailing winds are west to east and that is an important consideration in this instance. The lake is also viewable from the site as well, and when I say that, I mean there is an area that is unobstructed. The cemetery is also on a hill with a grade between 5-7% which is somewhat steep. If you take the prevailing winds, the unobstructed view(lake allows wind to increase speed due to little friction, unobstructed view provides less resistance) and the hill into consideration, it's only natural to think the winds would likely be stronger on the top of the hill. You see, picture wind as a fluid, it flows and morphs into the different things it passes. The hill would provide a point of obstruction that forces the speed to increase, as the air moves over the hill it forms something called an "eddie" which is when wind moves over an object and that object causes the wind to swirl if it were. That swirl can range in size and turbulence and could seem like a "horrible wind" in the cemetery. Factors of compressional heating and cooling(lifting) could also factor in, but we think this may be to small of a scale for such a situation. Outside the cemetery and surrounding roads, there are many different natural and man-made obstructions to reduce the wind speed and/or effect of the wind. That would explain the lack of wind around the perimeter of the grounds.
- "White Apparition" - Reports claiming a white apparition were reviewed before the investigation and watched for upon the duration. Nothing anomalous was witnessed by any investigator, but a few theories were proposed. The main theory was having to do with the human eye and it's lack of of ability to see clearly in low illumination. We had the luxury of a 3/4 moon and this truly helped in this instance. One investigator spent some time near a large Fir tree and the area itself was quite dark. We had spent a few hours in view of the Moon and its ambient light. He had mentioned difficulty in adjusting(optically) to the contrast from dark and light. As he viewed the cemetery, things got a little blurry and some of the headstones could have been, if not thought through, viewed as forms. Most of the headstones in Holy Name(the older section) seem to be of the limestone variety and do tend to shine quite poignantly in the moonlight. If glanced from ones peripheral vision, these could surely be viewed as an apparition in the right conditions. There is also a very large statue of Jesus Christ on the cross and at his feet are two standing women. There are certainly a type of Realistic art and if seen awkwardly could be thought of as forms. These are only theories, seeing as how we had little information to go off of and no personal experiences.
We arrived on location at around 12:00 AM CST and commenced at approximately 12:15 AM CST. We first began the investigation at the NE corner near the fence line and made our way west along that fence. Using a digital EMF and an analogue EMF(CellSensor) we began sweeps of the older section of the site.(NW) I will report that in the entire 3 hours on site, we had no EMF "spikes" or anomalous readings. The sweeps were not documented based on readings or location, the average reading from the digital was from .1 Gauss to .2 Guass. We also did do some EVP work on two standard digital recorders, the times totaling around 45 minutes of recordings. Nothing was found on any recorder and we did listen to each twice and also had a separate party review as well. The investigation lasted until roughly 3:00 AM CST and we have nothing unusual or paranormal to report.
Upon arrival, we were taken aback by the illumination of the sites with the solar lighting and did provide me with an eerie feeling when walking in. That was the most striking feeling of the entire investigation and there is little to report. No investigator had any experiences that would lead us to believe that Holy Name Cemetery is an active place with paranormal activity. We did not acquire any solid evidence to support the claims of activity to provide for the skeptic public(myself included). One of the investigators brought a very advanced camera with him and did snap quite a few shots. Upon discussing with him and viewing some of them on-site, there was nothing anomalous to report. Overall, this investigation was very informative to all of us and did prove successful in the "debunking" of Holy Name. We are not stating that Holy Name isn't active or that these experiences are unjustifiable, we are stating that we have nothing to report. If you may have any questions regarding the investigation and our findings, please contact us and one of the team members will respond promptly.
Report Completed By: Alex L.
Thank you for viewing this report and please continue to check back for further investigations and findings. -R.E.D

Maybe I just need a layout makeover to make me more excited about coming here? I mean, don't get me wrong, I love giving out updates & talking out my ass, & I also love staying caught up on my favourite blogs, but I just feel as though it's so 'blah' around here. Yeah, I think maybe I'll brighten things up around here for the summer.
Let's see here, so much to talk about!
The kiddoes are all out on summer break. Really excited about that. Things tried to go all lemonade on our asses there for a bit but I like sour shit, SO THERE LIFE! Seriously though, man, it had me down in the dumps for a bit. But I fought it back? With getting back into Silent Hill 3! That game is damn near perfect. Maybe not SOTN perfect, but quite effing close friendo/oes. I am completely in love with the soundtrack. The spawn & I beat it last week & it pretty much gave me a reason to get up in the morning there for a little while y'know? One of those kind of things. Well, Snookms & the kiddoes are ALWAYS the reason I get up, but well, you know how it is when you play a game you totally dig. It's the first thing you think about when you wake up; the last thing you think about before you go to bed. I wonder how Jesus feels about that? I think it's okay. I wouldn't be mad.
So yeah. I'm kind of laughing @ how Heather deals with the situations she's presented with tho... "OMG, this is SO NOT MY STYLE!" & whatnot. & when she says "bitch" it's pretty cute?
Now we have the unlimited sub machine gun mode unlocked & the kiddoes are on a mission to get the possessed ending & the whatever beam ending. I forget what it's called.
I think that another reason why I am loathing updating here is because I am not good with remember certain detailed facts. When I am not for certain, I just try to wing it, or I research it on the intarwebz to make for certain, right? Well, I don't like having to do that all the goddamn time just for the sake of not sounding like a pretentious twat. But I guess I can do that all on my own regardless eh?
Other such goings on are that I am super addicted to Pride & Prejudice right now. The Keira Knightley/Matthew Macfadyen one? OH SNAP that is such a ridiculously romantic movie! I am a huge sucker for the romance, no matter how much I try to lie to myself about it. Darcy, oh sweet Mr. Darcy. I want to see you pretend to be Alucard one day. I think the part that makes me cream in muh jeans most is when he & Elizabeth are @ the private ball @ Mr. Bingley's (goddamn he is quite the adorable one as well, no?) & Darcy says very subtly, "I hope to afford you more clarity in the future"... & the room goes silent & empty as if they two are the only ones in the room. You KNOW Keira's knees were a'bucklin over that. I get superstoopid over that scene.
She-spawn & I have been frequenting this new Green Leaf haunt down the way as of late. I spotted it back a few months ago & came to an epiphany one day driving home from SuperTarget: "HOLY SHIT! IT'S A BUBBLE TEA FRANCHISE!" So the next ample opportune that came I grabbed the she-spawn & we mosied on down there. Pretty cute place, really small, I had no idea what to expect really. At one point I was like, "Um kay, is bubble tea just carbonated tea?" So when I get there & it is all vietmanese franchise I am like "oh snap! It's almost Goldilocks up in here..." I was meg delighted. There is a supercute employee doll that she-spawn & I are crushing on there. She's got the most beautiful hair & she has the exact same complexion as my momma. So I haz Oedipus complex somewhat. SUE ME!
We tried the strawberry milk tea the first time & got some spring rolls to go. She-spawn totally digs em but I am more of the eggroll fan here. So the next time I got those & tried the taro green milk tea which I love way more than the strawberry. I find myself fiending for a black ball o' glycerin to chew upon after awhile though. The taro green stuff makes me want avocado ice cream from Lee's supermarket though. It's really creamy & the colour is just beautiful in a cup. I love the uber epic straws too. She-spawn totally wanted to stock up on them. I was like, "No! Save them for others too woman!"
It was so funny too because she-spawn & I went to Walmart today to do groceries & saw the bubble tea girl we are crushing on & she was wearing the cutest summer dress & drinkin the taro green. She saw us & was all happy & cute about it. She was with her boyfriend, which she-spawn & I totally did the 'knowing' nod over cuz we kinda suspected that they may have been an item when we saw them working together. He is the whitest caucausian I ever seen in mai life tho. & he was workin them counters like nobody's business. GOOD FOR HIM! They will have irresistable babies should they elect to reproduce.
The other big news is that Snookms is on vacation! He surprised me! Totally... He came home Friday, called all the members of the Turner abode together family meeting style & was all, "I got good news & bad news. Bad news is I have to work tomorrow/tomarrow (which was a Saturday) but the good news is I'm off for the rest of the week." I was dumbfounded? He is also getting it paid, which is a luxury we are not accustomed to affording round here. There's been a couple of vacations like that but most of them have been at the risk of losing a week's worth of resources. So we have fun stuff planned but nothing backbreakingly spectacular just because we are getting old & wanna take it easy. We saw the new Robin Hood flick late last night, it was okay. It was what I figured it would be. I knew the kids would be bored but I figured they could use a couple boring movies in their life. Gives em character.
I've discovered the awesomeness that is Tumblr too, via Paige, one of Mysty's acquaintances. I like it way better over there than I do here as of late. It is where I found these 2 gems anyway... (amongst so many others)

The top one is pretty much how I picture the wil o' wisp to look in Mordicai's "Wil o' Wisps & Other Illuminated Manuscripts" book; right down to a tee. She likes to yell out "SKULLY!" when she hates. & she does it so adorably! & the bottom doll I just ogle & ogle over for hours. It is quite adorable. I have a thing for nautical helms, leave me alone! It most be that one episode of Scooby Doo or something.
Katie's birthday party was held @ Robbie's on Saturday night. Trekked my way out there without too much trouble. I had stopped by Disc Replay beforehand to grab a few quick gifts & found Brutal Legend & 2 other movies for her. She seemed to like them just fine. I managed to snag Silent Hill, Shaun of the Dead & Mysterious Skin whilst I was there too. I can't wait to rewatch Mysterious Skin, I've been telling Mysty all about it. Rewatched Silent Hill today, this time with a different perspective since I actually played one of the games for a worthwhile amount of time. Also I let the spawn watch it with me since I didn't let them watch it when it first came out. They were still pretty sheltered from a lot of stuff then, didn't want to traumatize them with a bunch of stuff that I myself could not bring myself to explain to them at the time, y'know? But I liked it even better this time around, was able to appreciate the soundtrack way more at least. The kiddoes enjoyed it as well, were appropriately spooked & such.
@ Robbie's we I mostly played Rock Band, I even got to play on the drums! I liked it a lot & am now scheming & devising a plan in which I have some for our abode by the end of this summer break. I played on medium mode for a bit & got brave to do Hard, fucked up the second song in the set & chickened out, going back to medium. It was so boring though so I said fuck it & went back to Hard & did okay. I really got jazzed over playing "Welcome Home" by Coheed & Cambria on Hard Mode. It wasn't no joke, but I managed to make it through the song. Robbie made cheesecake which I didn't get to try & also chocolate covered strawberries which I did get to try & they were just as tasty as I'd always imagined them. Other things that were tasty was Katie in her pretty dress with her new hairz being all drunken & giggly & Robbie just being Robbie in general. He has this look. It gets me everytime.
I went to Mysty's house a bunch last week, what, I think at least 3 times, or maybe it was the week before? Heck, I dunno! All's I know is that we had a jolly good ol' time just hanging out on her front porch, enjoying the electric air, smoking, chatting, laughing. She showed me her collection of The Doors stuff she has & I was just totally in love with her dedication to such a thing. Her sister had brought by a bunch of her old stuff that had just been laying around for years in random boxes & she dug out a bunch of old Doors records. She put em on & we just scampered around her abode living life & enjoying being in each others'. By the time I left it was almost 2 & we were both equally spooked cause we were talking about exorcisms, remote viewing & our conspiracy theories regarding the C.I.A. She's so cute when she's paranoid!
Now I am about to assist Snookms in the culinary department. He is making breakfast for dinner with all the trimmins; homemade sausage gravy, biscuits, bacon, eggs, french toast & sausage. WOOOOOOT!

The Swiss watchmaker Ebel will soon add a whole new family of quartz-powered sporty chronograph watches flying different colors for their rubber bands. The first among them will be the new Ebel Classic Sport Chrono Khaki (ref. 1216048) wristwatch. Sporting bold exterior styling, but being powered by an average quartz caliber, the watch seems to be seriously overpriced, but that's not going to be a problem if you will manage to find one online with a good rebate.
The Ebel Classic Sport Chrono Khaki watch features Ebel's signature case with the round bezel bolted to the case with six polished screws. While this deliberately non-functional design may make some potential customers wince, I actually find it quite interesting: at least the watch looks different from myriads of other timepieces offered in this niche.
Also, thanks to the watch being equipped with a Swiss made Ebel 503 quartz movement (regretfully, Ebel like many other watchmaking brands prefers not to disclose the base caliber behind this engine, but it's probably a mechanism sourced from ETA as in some other their watches,) the case looks rather slender. Being 41 mm in diameter, it is only 10.80 millimeters in height, which makes wearing it with a formal suit a lot more pleasant experience compared to thicker timekeepers.
Of course, there are people who prefer their chronographs in massive, even bulky cases (a chronograph is a sporty watch, after all, and a sporty watch must radiate, um, presence,) but to my taste, a thinner watch is always the winner. Just because it is more comfortable to wear with a long-sleeve shirt.
There are still no real-life images of the chronograph, but on the promo photos the watch looks great with the interplay of brushed and polished surfaces, energetically shaped chronograph push-pieces and a branded setting crown with the Ebel logo.
There are only two things that disturb me a little. First, it is the timekeeper's official water resistance rating of only 50 meters. Yes, I understand that the styling of the watch demands it to be primarily worn with something more formal than an M65 jacket and trekking shoes, but -let's be honest here- there will be a lot of people who will buy this wristwatch to use in situations where, say, dropping in a swimming pool or a pond while being reasonably intoxicated doesn't seem a terribly farfetched idea and it would be terrible to ruin the watch just because someone decided not to give it a WR rating of some 100 meters or more.
Which brings me nicely to my second complaint about this Ebel Classic Sport Chrono Khaki: the price. From my perspective, a quartz-powered watch in a normal stainless steel case that is offered at an MSRP of $2300 is grossly, inexcusably overpriced unless the brand plans to sell it with huge discounts in order to attract more customers by offering them "great deals".
The watch will be officially presented later this month at Baselworld 2011 show.

Book of Saints – Martyrs of Persia – 6 April
(Saints) (April 6) (4th century) One hundred Christian soldiers, for the most part Greeks, made prisoners by the Persian King Sapor II in his war with the Emperor Constantius. They were all put to the sword by the Pagans and have since been venerated as Martyrs.

Modern Literal Version
[Matthew 14]
{Mar 6:14-29 & Mat 14:1-12 & Luk 9:7-9.}
14:1 Herod the Tetrarch heard the report of Jesus at that time, 14:2 and said to his young-servants, This is John the Immerser*; he was raised from the dead, and because of this, these powers are working in him. 14:3 For* Herod had took-hold of John, and bound him, and placed him in prison because of Herodias, his brother Philip's wife.
14:4 For* John said to him, It is not legal for you to have her.
14:5 And wishing to kill him, but he feared the crowd, because they held him as a prophet.
14:6 Now when* Herod's birthday came, the daughter of Herodias danced in the midst of the courtand pleased Herod; 14:7 from where he confessed with an oath to give her whatever she asks of him.
14:8 Now being pushed forward by her mother, she says, Give me the head of John the Immerser*upon a platter here.
14:9 And the king was sorrowful, but because of his oaths and of those who reclined at the mealtogether with him, he commanded it to be given. 14:10 And he sent and beheaded John in the prison.14:11 And his head was carried upon a platter, and given to the girl, and she brought it to her mother.14:12 And his disciples came and lifted up the body, and buried it, and they went and reported to Jesus.
{Mar 6:30-32 & Mat 14:13 & Luk 9:10 & Joh 6:1 East shore of Galilee.}
14:13 And when* Jesus heard it, he departed from there in a ship, privately to a desolate place, and when* the crowds heard of it, they followed him on foot from the cities.
{Mar 6:33-44 & Mat 14:14-21 & Luk 9:11-17 & Joh 6:2-14.}
14:14 And when* Jesus went out, he saw a large crowd, and he had compassion on them and healed their sick. 14:15 Now when* it became evening, his disciples came to him, saying, The place is desolate and the hour has already passed away; dismiss the crowds, in order that they may go away into the villages and buy food for themselves.
14:16 But Jesus said to them, They have no need to go away; youĎ, giveĎ them food to eat!
14:17 But they say to him, We do not have anything here except five loaves and two fish.
14:18 Now he said, BringĎ them here to me.14:19 And he commanded the crowds to recline upon the grass, and he took the five loaves and the two fish, and looking up to heaven, he gave-thanks and broke them, and he gave the loaves to the disciples, and the disciples then gave to the crowds. 14:20And they all ate and were fed, and they took up what was leftover of the broken pieces, twelve baskets full. 14:21 Now those eating were approximately five thousand men, plus women and children.
{Mar 6:45-56 & Mat 14:22-36 & Joh 6:15-21.}
14:22 And immediately, Jesus urged the disciples to step into the ship, and to precede him to thearea beyond-that, until he should dismiss the crowds. 14:23 And after he had dismissed the crowds, he went up into the mountain privately to pray. Now when* it became evening, he was alone there.14:24 But the ship was already in the midst of the sea, and was being tormented by the waves; for* the wind was adverse. 14:25 Now in the fourth watch of the night Jesus went to them, walking upon the sea. 14:26 And when* the disciples saw him walking upon the sea, they were disturbed, saying, It is an apparition, and they cried out from their fear.
14:27 But Jesus immediately spoke to them, saying, HaveĎ courage; it is I; doĎ not be afraid.
14:28 Now Peter having answered to him, said, Lord, if it is you, command me to come to you upon the waters.
14:29 Now he said, Come.
And Peter went down from the ship, and walked upon the waters to go toward Jesus. 14:30 But he was afraid, seeing the strong wind, and beginning to sink, he cried out, saying, Lord, save me!
14:31 Now Jesus immediately stretched out his hand, and grabbed him, and says to him, You of small faith, why were you skeptical?
14:32 And when* they stepped into the ship, the wind pauses. 14:33 Now those in the ship came to him and, worshiped him, saying, You are truly the Son of God.
14:34 And having ferried over, they came to the land of Gennesaret. 14:35 And when* the men of that place recognized him, they sent word into the whole region around and brought to him all those who have an illness, 14:36 and they were pleading with him in order that they might only touch the hem of his garment and as many as touched it, were cured.

Sometimes you have a boyfriend who is lovely really, there's nothing wrong with him, you just don't click. Or it (whatever the 'it' is you're looking for in that particular relationship) just isn't there. Those break ups are really hard because they almost always end in the most awful and overused sentence – "It's not you, it's me". And then there are break ups that are easy. No brainers really.

Made Proudly in the USA
We recently converted our oil boiler to gas and the heating crew could not remove the half-full, 250-gallon oil tank until one week later. Hence, we had an open fuel oil tank (the pipes were removed) and strong oil fumes inside our home. As a result, our dog and cat became ill within a few hours. Upon receiving and spraying the VaporRemed, the fumes quickly disappeared and the animals recovered. After the fuel oil tank was removed, we sprayed a few final applications of VaporRemed and now, everyone in the household is breathing happily and without any adverse effects … thanks for creating such an amazing product!
A trench was made between the two properties and the contaminated soil was exposed for application of VaporRemed.
VaporRemed was added into the shallow ground water through monitoring wells to address residual contamination in ground water.

James Wan has spoken with excitement in recent interviews about his chance to tackle DC Comics hero "Aquaman" onscreen, but in a new interview with CBR News he's indicated he's well aware the character doesn't resonate with everybody.
Wan goes on to tell the outlet that it's writer Geoff Johns' work in the New 52 comics reboot of the character, efforts which reinvigorate the character with the kinds of readers who may have considered Aquaman a walking joke, as inspiration for his take:
"I'm a big fan of what Geoff Johns did with his new take on 'Aquaman,' with the New 52. I think for the first time, we get to see Aquaman as a superhero that definitely isn't the butt of superhero jokes, right? I think that there's something very exciting about that.
I actually do think there's something kind of fun, as well, to take a character where people don't quite know what to expect from him, or rather the expectation of him is quite low. I always say, it's very difficult when you're tackling something like 'Spider-Man' or 'Batman' that has been done so many times before. Whereas, it's actually really refreshing to take on something like 'Aquaman,' that no one has really seen before in this context, and make it your own."
Asked how prepared he was for the task of shooting on or under water, Wan was prepared with an amusing answer:
"I will answer that with this little anecdote from The Conjuring 2. We have a sequence in the movie where the set is flooded, it's waterlogged, and there's a lot of rain in this movie. Every time I'm out in the rain, and I'm in this sunken, flooded set, the only thing that's going through my brain is, 'F–k, I have to put up with this for an entire movie. This is going to suck.' I'll leave it at that — how's that?"
The "Aquaman" film is due out in 2018.

Donald Tusk, President of the European Council, High Representative Federica Mogherini and Neven Mimica, European Commissioner for Development Cooperation, will represent the European Union. President Dr Ashraf Ghani and CEO Dr Abdullah Abdullah will represent Afghanistan.
The conference is expected to focus on three levels:
- joint international and Afghan efforts to increase the effectiveness of sustained international support and funding, on the basis of a new Afghan national development framework
- Afghan reform efforts, including on economic reform, rule of law, improved public finance management and anti-corruption so as to ensure the provision of the most important services and public goods
- regional efforts to support a political process towards peace and cross-border economic cooperation
Working in close partnership with the international community, the Afghan people have achieved significant progress in a wide range of areas over the past 14 years. However, important challenges still lie ahead. Enabling the Afghan people to shape their own future requires progress in several fields, including:
- building the nascent democratic institutions and reaching out for peace
- fostering the rule of law and human rights
- returning to robust economic growth, creating jobs and reducing poverty
In July 2012, at the Tokyo Conference, it was agreed that a series of ministerial-level meetings on Afghanistan would take place to support progress in the country. The Brussels Conference will be the second of these meetings, following the London Conference on Afghanistan which took place on 4 December 2014.
At the Tokyo Conference, in July 2012, the international community agreed on the Tokyo mutual accountability framework, to provide ongoing support for the development of Afghanistan against concrete progress in implementing Afghan reforms. The framework was updated in 2015 at a senior officials meeting, as the self-reliance through mutual accountability framework. The Brussels Conference will reconfirm this framework up until 2020, based on evidence of progress delivered on mutual commitments.

Mary Hart Reveals Her Own Pay Disparity Dispute: "I Lasted, He Didn't"
Catt Sadler's headline-making exit from E! News on Dec. 19 — quitting after she learned that co-anchor Jason Kennedy was earning nearly twice her salary — isn't the first time pay-equity issues have landed on an entertainment news anchor desk.
Mary Hart, who had a legendary 29-year run on Entertainment Tonight from 1982 to 2011, tells THR she had a similar experience early on in her career. "I had one male counterpart who really wanted to make sure I knew he made a lot more money than me," says Hart, 67, who would only reveal that this situation occurred in the '70s or '80s. "But we didn't work together for long."
So what happened? "I lasted and he didn't," Hart explains, adding that what did linger was questions about how men and women were treated differently in the workplace. "Once he was gone, I felt like it was pretty even-steven after that. But there were lots and lots of conversations that you need to have. Nice, civil conversations. It's still a huge issue across the board, and gender equality is something that we are finally addressing in a very honest, and kind of painful way."

jam and marmelade
We produce them with organic Italian season fresh fruit (mainly local), with the only addition of brown sugar, with no pectin, no additives and no thickening agents added. They are obtained with fruit coming from organic farming and selected manually. An extremely homemade consolidated processing and the benefits of a steam system: the result is a product that will amaze you for its genuine taste and its natural texture. You will taste some jam that has the whole flavour of the fruit it is made of! But in case you may taste some jam we did not make ourselves, please check that it is made with fresh fruit and how much of it has been used to prepare it; try to avoid those that contain pectin (50% will be water) or other thickening agents or additives (substances that do not naturally belong to fruit). Only if we learn to be careful consumers we will be able not to be "bought" by the market… not all jams are the same!!
The product is not currently available

It is of course well known that Douglas Adams once wrote a treatment for a Doctor Who film. It was called Doctor Who and the Krikkitmen, and there's an excerpt from it in Neil Gaiman's book Don't Panic. (Douglas, as was his wont, ended up reusing the plot in the third Hitchhiker's book, Life, the Universe and Everything.)
What hasn't been known, until the recent discovery of some dusty files from a previously locked filing cabinet in a basement at the BBC, is that Adams also wrote a treatment for a Blake's 7 film!
It seems that in late 1978, as the series was entering its second season, Adams was approached to come up with an idea for a movie-length story (whether this was intended for the cinema, or prhaps a one-off TV special, is not clear).
Adams duly typed up a 21-page treatment, entitled The Jailer of Okpol. It's an exciting tale, in which Avon and co. must break Blake out of an impregnable, hi-tech prison asteroid, run by the bloated, reptilian alien Olaf Riplo. Blake meanshile is trying his own escape plan, with the aid of a fellow prisoner, the beautiful lady thief Flair Polo. A standout scene has Vila reprogramming a computer not to notice that he's just reprogrammed it--an idea Adams must have been pleased with, as it turned up (using Ford Prefect) years later in the fifth Hitchhiker's novel, Mostly Harmless.
WHAT YOU DON'T KNOW: This foolish Douglas Adams script was rediscovered in early April...

India urges WHO to set up mechanism to curb drinking
NEW DELHI: India has proposed to the World Health Organization (WHO) to set up a framework for control of alcohol consumption on the lines of the WHO Framework Convention on Tobacco Control (WHO FCTC).
FCTC was the first international treaty negotiated under the auspices of WHO that was developed in response to the globalization of the tobacco epidemic.It was adopted by the World Health Assembly on May 21, 2003, and came into force on February 27, 2005. It has since become one of the most rapidly and widely embraced treaties in the United Nations' history.Upset about "alcohol being let off the hook with the WHO deciding against setting reduction targets on its consumption", India said that it was surprised that countries weren't pushing for a cut down on alcohol even when its clear that 3.2 lakh young people aged between 15 and 29 years die annually from alcohol-related causes, resulting in 9% of all deaths in that age group.
A senior health ministry official said, "In case of tobacco, there is no doubt over its harmful effects. However, with alcohol it isn't very clear what the threshold for harmful drinking would be. Some member states have also argued that in many people, slight amount of alcohol can actually prove beneficial."WHO says it found no support to bring in legislation against alcohol, adding that "member states expressed serious concern with the adult per capita consumption not being a valid proxy of harmful alcohol consumption."
In January, the WHO set a target to reduce per capita consumption of alcohol globally by 10%, and another 10% reduction of heavy episodic drinking by 2025 as part of its global plan to reduce the burden of non- communicable diseases (NCDs). WHO says, "Some member states doubted that this was an achievable target."Saying it received "low to no support", WHO said "several countries noted the difficulty of getting an accurate measure of adult per capita consumption given the high level of consumption of duty free/stored/home brewed/black market alcohol. Some member states expressed concern about the implicit difficulties in working with the alcohol industry towards a goal that is counter to their best interests."
Health ministry officials said April 19 was the last day for member states like India to send their comments to the proposed targets. On May 8, WHO will hold a consultation with global experts to discuss the feedback and develop the fresh draft of targets that will be taken up for consideration at the World Health Assembly on May 21.Even the NCD Alliance, a formal grouping of four international federations like International Diabetes Federation, Union for International Cancer Control, World Heart Federation and International Union against Tuberculosis and Lung Disease, representing the four main NCDs, cardiovascular disease, diabetes, cancer and chronic respiratory disease, has asked WHO to reinstate targets for cutting down alcohol use.
One of the key characteristics of the hazardous pattern of drinking is the presence of heavy drinking occasions, defined as consumption of 60 or more mg of pure alcohol per day.Hazardous and harmful drinking results in 2.5 million deaths each year globally, and of these 14% is due to CVD and diabetes. The average age of alcohol consumption in India has been constantly falling by nearly nine years over the past decade. Now, on an average, Indians take their first sip of alcohol at the age of 19 compared to 28 in the 1990s. Soon, experts say it will be reduced to 15 years.
Planning Commission says alcohol consumption is connected to more than 60 types of diseases and injury. Alcohol is a risk factor for oesophageal cancer, liver cancer, cirrhosis of liver, homicide, stroke, psychiatric illness and motor vehicle accidents.Around 25% of road accidents in India are alcohol-related, and 20% of accident-related head injury victims seen in emergency rooms of hospitals have consumed alcohol prior to the accident. Besides, alcohol-related problems account for 17.6% of the case load of psychiatric emergencies.
Alcohol use ranges between 25% and 40% in north India, and 33% and 50% in the south, with a higher prevalence among the less educated and the poor.Punjab, Andhra Pradesh, Goa and the north-eastern states have the highest consumption figures. The prevalence of alcohol is reported to be lowest in Gujarat (7%) and the highest is in the north-eastern state of Arunachal Pradesh (75%). The government spends nearly $5 billion every year to manage the consequences of alcohol use, which is more than its total excise earning of $4.8 billion. – TOI

Why Alloy Cats
Boaties the world over have always been very traditional in their attitudes to new design concepts, and nowhere more so than here in New Zealand. We are wary, suspicious and at times downright cynical when faced with a new boat concept that is somewhat different to what we have always accepted. There have often been good grounds for these attitudes for many a new concept has flopped, sometimes through unflattering performances, but often through poor engineering and construction.
The Development of Powercats
The development of power catamarans (now commonly called powercats) has been a typical example. Tales of split hull joints, smashed wingdeck sections and hard pounding into head seas did little to encourage boaties to join the multihull brigade in the latter quarter of last century. The evolution of powercats, particularly in New Zealand, was slow and painful, though many hung to the belief that these craft were the way of the future.
Many amateur efforts, at both design and construction, produced some aesthetically 'unappealing' craft, but in some you could not fault the performance outcomes.
Several of our professional designers recognised the potential of powercats and thus began an evolution that has seen large numbers of these boats not only cruising our coastlines but venturing across oceans as well.
Today, a well-designed and built powercat holds it value exceptionally well, a testament to the many factors that give it significant advantages over the traditional monohull vessel.
Our Boatbuilding Experience
While we are powercat specialists, our expertise in boatbuilding extends to all areas of the market – from small dinghies and punts right through to large monohull launches. In between we have designed and built houseboats for leisure and charter, workboats for charter and crayfishing, and an extensive range of trailerboats – both the Kingfisher brand and Fish City models. Outside of our own Kingfisher designs we have built designs by Naiad, Tim Barnett, and Roger Hill.
We have built boats to comply with survey standards by Lloyds, Australian Maritime Safety Authority and Maritime New Zealand.
Browse this website and view the diversity of boats we now have on the water from this pontoon platform for a radical houseboat in Fiji through to an 18metre executive charter cat for Australia's east coast.

Unfortunately , i can't live with the F I policy ( fcuk it policy ) . Well , the confession that i would like to make in here is i'm FAT ! Put it in a nice way , i've put on weight ever since i worked with Fridays . I have triplets layers tummy whenever i sit down , my jeans are tight and i don't have shapes anymore . My prosperity been bulging out here and there . I admit i've been eating a lot recently . You know working with f&b line , you'll tend to eat supper as if you're having your dinner and then when you're tired you just go to sleep right after you had your supper and cleaned yourself . The next day you wake up very late and you don't have the time to exercise knowing the fact that you don't have a life . That is what i'm facing right now . I need to find solution for my problem and i need to get rid of these irritating fats . I'm double my size than before . I'm HUGE now ! No , it ain't a good thing and yes it's a big deal to me .

NORTH SEWICKLEY TWP. - A 20-year-old North Sewickley Township man faces several charges after police said he stabbed a man Friday outside a football game at Riverside High School.
Charges are pending against the second man as well, police said.
Darrin Cooper McClean Jr. of 1650 Brighton Road was arraigned Friday on charges of aggravated assault, two counts of simple assault, and recklessly endangering another person.
He was released from the Beaver County Jail on Saturday after posting bond. Jail personnel did not have bond information Tuesday.
Around 7:30 p.m. Friday, township police were called to the parking lot of Riverside High School for a reported stabbing, and found McClean and Brian D. Duray, 19, of Pine Run Road, Marion Township, in a field adjacent to the school.
Police said Duray was bleeding from stab wounds, and about 70 yards away, McClean was lying on the ground with cuts on his head and left thumb.
Police said the two, who had been friends, were arguing about a girl and the dispute turned physical.
Acting Police Chief Larry Phillips said a maintenance man who saw the fight broke it up and left. But the men fought again, he said.
Duray, who police said has been trained in the Army in mixed martial arts and ground combat fighting, knocked McClean to the ground and began punching and kneeing him, in addition to choking him, police said.
McClean was on the ground when he pulled a fold-out pocket knife from his pants and stabbed Duray in both legs, police said. McClean initially denied using the knife during the fight but later gave police a statement admitting to using it to stab Duray.
The knife was found in McClean's girlfriend's car, about 10 feet from where the fight took place. Police did not name the girlfriend.
Duray was treated at Ellwood City Hospital. McClean refused treatment for his injuries, police said.

I've been having some fun lately with two of my newest blogging tools. One, my brand new set of Martha Stewart chef knives and two, my digital camera. Before, I was having to deal with really poor quality photos from my iPhone. I would be able to spruce them up a bit with Picnik.com, but they were still pretty fuzzy and with the poor lighting in my little apartment, it was very hopeless. But I DO have a digital camera. It's just been broken for the last year or so. It never occurred to me, my sister, the person that I live with, who loves photography and cameras, might know how to fix it. And low and behold…she did. So I've been very pleased to have it in the kitchen with me. Due to lighting issues I am still having to touch the pictures up a bit with Picnik so that the photos aren't so dark, but the detail this camera captures is absolutely stunning….so let's take a moment and gawk at my beautiful handiwork………………..okay it's not THAT great. I'm not a photographer. Just a writer and a cook.
Today was my grandmother's last day in town and so she took me out to lunch at a favorite place of mine, a tremendous Chinese buffet. It's probably one of the biggest buildings we have in our little area. But it's a fairly new place and I've already been a good handful of times. The food is really really good. Good selection and top notch quality (for an all you can eat buffet) and very reasonably priced. However fried food sits pretty heavy on my stomach. And by the time I was hungry again towards the end of the night, I was craving some real nutrition. About three years ago when I started this healthy eating adventure, I created a bunch of salad recipes. Salad and I have had a journey together. I really had to force myself to like salad. But lately, and I mean within the last few months, I have been devouring salads. It's really strange how thing change like that isn't it? I created this one back in those early times in my old cramped campus apartment/dorm when all I knew how to do as far as cooking was grilling frozen tilapia and chicken tenders. Oh those were the days! So many times I messed this one up and finally, after 3 total tries over the last few years, I have gotten it correct. While it seems really common sense to most people, pouring hot dressing over lettuce makes it wilt. And burning garlic actually makes it bitter. And if you don't cut your salad pieces into nice small pieces, it's going to be cumbersome. So I have taken all these things into consideration and created one of the tastiest and healthiest salads I know.
It's called, Crunchy Tilapia Salad. Here's how you make it!
The Dressing:
1/4 cup of tasting olive oil (because normal olive oil tastes terrible to me)
3 cloves of garlic minced (you don't have to use this much, I like my breath to smell bad)
salt and black pepper
red pepper flakes (because I like a little extra zing)
The Salad:
4 leaves Romaine lettuce (adjust volume to your liking)
1 filet of tilapia (I use frozen because it's cheap)
Curry powder
Salt and pepper
Garlic powder
Carrots, chopped
Green onions, chopped
Cherry tomatoes, sliced
Make your salad dressing by heating the olive oil on low heat. Stir in the salt, pepper and red pepper flakes. When oil is warm, toss in your garlic. The garlic will sizzle and start to cook. Keep stirring it for a few moments so that it doesn't burn and then take it off the heat. Within that time the garlic flavor will infuse with the oil. DO NOT let it burn. It will become bitter and ruin your salad. Put in the refrigerator to cool down while you prepare the rest of your salad. It would be best if you would chop your vegetables while it is cooling so that it has time to really cool down. You don't want wilted lettuce!
Season your tilapia filet with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and curry powder. Cook on a well-oiled pan or skillet until the fish becomes flaky. When the fish has reached this texture, break up the fish with a fork into little pieces. Take off heat and put to the side to cool.
Place your dressing in the bottom of a serving bowl and put your veggies on top. Mix well with a fork and spoon. Make sure you get the dressing all over so every bite has a nice garlic flavor! Add in the tilapia and mix it up.
THAT my friends is the perfect salad. And here's the perfect bite of the perfect salad:
I literally licked the bowl clean people! I have never done that with a SALAD! The really nice thing about this salad is that it is so good for you and tastes SO good. I buy really good quality produce at the produce market and I find that this makes all the difference. The tomatoes were so sweet and the carrots were fresh and gave a really pleasing crunch. I didn't even miss having croutons because the carrots made it so crunchy. There's no cheese on this salad which helps with the fat, and the dressing is oil based instead of cream based which is much better for you. The fish has great protein and I find that even though you can't see them, the green onions really gave it a nice extra flavor. I had never used curry powder to season the fish until tonight so that was a very nice edit. I felt like that really pulled the flavors together. If you are a fish fan and are looking for something really light and healthy, this is a great lunch or in my case, a delicious dinner after a heavy lunch.
I hope everyone makes this. You could definitely sub the tilapia for shrimp if you're not a big fish person or really…you can just leave out the meat altogether. The dressing is what really makes the salad so it doesn't matter what you do. It's all good. Let me know what you think, guys! Just comment below!
I hope everyone is staying warm in this very cold January!

I am going to add another hobby to my life. It's not new, just something I need to do more.
My running hobby attempt is going well and although my knees are mad at me I have been running for a few weeks. I won't say I am "addicted" to it, or that its become a habit – but I am working on it. And sometimes I look forward to running – and much like homework and church – I am always happy when it's over!
My next hobby will be cooking more! Like I said before I love to bake and I am actually pretty good at it. However, my cooking skills need a little help.
I also want to cook healthy yummy food which is not always easy. So I am going to TRY and cook healthy versions of food – but that's not always possible or fun. So if I can find or come up with an alternative version of what I am cooking or baking I will include both versions of the recipe.
My first recipe is one I got from another blogger I adore called Dashing Dish.
I made the Lasagna Roll-Ups and they were indeed delicious! And what's great about them is they are so good and healthy and it's just Shane, my brother and me so I had plenty left over for a healthy lunch.
Hope you enjoy!
6 whole wheat (or fiber plus) lasagna sheets
1 cup cooked ground chicken or cooked lean ground turkey/ lean ground beef
1 cup low fat cottage cheese, blended in a blender or food processor until smooth, (or low fat ricotta)
1 cup frozen chopped spinach, thawed and squeezed dry (don't like frozen spinach so I left it out)
1/2 cup parmesan, separated
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/4 tsp salt
1/2 tsp italian seasoning (or 1/4 tsp basil + 1/4 tsp oregano)
1 jar spaghetti sauce (I used)
Optional: 1 cup mozzarella sprinkled on top
1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Spray a baking dish with non-stick cooking spray. Pour 1 cup of spaghetti sauce on the bottom of the baking dish. Set aside.
2. In a large pot, bring water to a boil, and cook lasagna noodles according to package directions. (I recommend cooking a few more than 6, just in case one breaks or tears. With any left overs I threw them in another baking dish and made "messy lasagna")
3. Meanwhile, in a medium size bowl, mix together meat, 1/2 cup spaghetti sauce, cottage cheese, spinach, 1/4 cup parmesan, and spices.
4. When noodles are cooked, drain in a colander, and lay on a kitchen towel to dry. Start assembling lasagna roll ups by spreading 1/6 of the meat mixture over each individual lasagna noodle.
Each roll only has 224 calories – and if you care it's 6 Weight Watchers Points.
You can easily make this recipe not healthy by using regular noodles and non-organic sauce. But why would you want to? This is seriously so good you will think it's bad. And I used ground turkey and it was delicious. Even my picky brother liked it!
