Saga by Brian K. Vaughan and Fiona Staples
Unwritten is over. Fables has one more issue before it will be complete. Sandman gets a new mini-series once every ten years or so. Lately it feels like there aren't a whole lot of comic series that I follow that are still current.
Enter Saga, a series I had heard a lot about over the last couple of years, but never got around to reading. Part of it was the unavailability of the first collection. It was out of print the few times I thought about seeing what all the fuss was about. I saw the hardcover edition of the first eighteen issues, but I wasn't quite willing to go that far into the series without getting a taste for it first. I knew Vaughan's name from Y: The Last Man, but didn't like that one much at all, despite all the rave reviews for it. I wanted to enter Saga with a touch of caution.
Last night, I read the first collection, and then went right back out to Barnes and Noble to pick up volumes two through four. That's caution for you.
Saga follows the story of Hazel, the daughter of Alana, from the planet Landfall, and Marko, from the moon Wreath, which orbits Landfall. Their planets have been at war for a long time. Marko starts out as Alana's prisoner, but over time they fall in love, and once their romance takes shape, they both become fugitives. And when I say Saga is about Hazel, I mean it's about her entire life; the story starts with her birth.
Hazel narrates parts of the story from a distant future, so the story is essentially one long recollection. Why Hazel is narrating the story is a bit of an unknown. Is she telling the story to herself, or to someone else? If it's to someone else, why? Is someone interrogating her? Is it an internal recollection? Is she telling it to a biographer? Is she famous or infamous or completely unknown in her present time?
The questions create an engaging dynamic, but the real story is in how Alana and Marko leave their homes in order for their family to survive. Some of the dramatic tension is eased by Hazel narrating parts of the story, but given the existence of spirits and ghosts in the story, there's no real guarantee that Hazel survives the story she's telling. Hazel also spoils parts of the story by telling us certain things that we don't know yet through the development of events, but in most cases she's telling us what we've already suspected.
The story has its roots in lots of other literature — Romeo and Juliet is the most obvious — but it's also something original. The creativity of the creatures and worlds of this story are reminiscent of Clive Barker and China Mieville. There is a race of beings with television sets for heads, one with wings, another with horns, one with eight eyes and eight limbs . . . there's a lot of imagination here. Vaughan throws them together easily, until the story looks like the cantina scene Star Wars (which is another influence).
Fiona Staples' artwork is a large part of the story, as well. I tend not to notice the artwork in comics unless it's distinctive in some way, and while Staples doesn't do anything impressionistic or abstract with her artwork, there's something distinctive about her style that makes it the perfect fit for the story, like Eddie Campbell's style with From Hell. I think the best graphic storytelling takes advantage of a unique story and unique art, and Saga seems to be doing just that.
If you've been hesitant about reading Saga, rest assured that there's a fantastic story here to reveal itself to you. It's a new enough series that you won't have to go back too far to catch up (it's not The Walking Dead, for Christ's sake). This is the comic to fill the void of smart, engaging titles for grown-ups to enjoy.

What might have caused your writer's block.A Lesson by E. A. Fielder
These are somethings that can lead to writer's block.
1. Stress or an unhappy environment.
-When you are in a lot of bad situations or just live in a bad place and emotions are always high that can lead to writer's block.
2. Being too cooped up.
-Being a hermit is something that you can get used to over time. I myself sometimes prefer to hermit myself away from the world. Too much of this can cause you to not find any inspiration or to lose you want to write.
3. Writing on the same topic over and over and over again in the same form.
-This is monotonous and I don't understand how people can publish books doing this. Expand your horizons.
4.Over working yourself.
- When you work too much or you lose sleep you will not be able to think very well which of course can lead to WRITER'S BLOCK!!!
5. Too much on your plate
- Often school, work, sports or a social life can come in the way of writing and create a block. Wait till things are not as hectic and then try and write.

text: Wildwood has sold me numerous guitars from 2008, till now. Although my fortunes have changed dramatically over that time span & what I can afford has diminished in scale: what hasn't diminished, is the customer service the store affords to me and the personal service I always receive. I still get the same treatment as if I was only buying custom shop guitars, as I do now buying the standard lines and accessories. Troy usually helps me, although pretty much every one there has in some capacity, including Steve the owner – all are exceptional. Wildwood Guitars is a fantastically stocked and staffed store, by knowledgeable musicians that care and aim to please. In today's shrinking mom & pop store reality, this store stands head and shoulders over the rest.

The National Leader of the All Progressives Congress, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, has called for impactful reforms for the ruling party to fulfil its pledge to the Nigerian people.
Tinubu said this at the Daily Trust Annual Lecture Series on Thursday, where he spoke on: "Nigeria and challenges of 2019: This is not a game."
Tinubu said a lot of people see elections as the end of a process but that the fulfilment of electoral promises is the next phase after attaining any office.
In this wise, the former Governor of Lagos State called for impactful reforms in order to transform the nation.
Some of the areas in which he clamoured for reforms include job creation, provision of social policy initiatives and building infrastructure befitting a leading nation.
He said: "As a progressive, I believe we must transform the nation by embarking on deep and impactful reforms, by creating more jobs, providing social policy initiatives and building an infrastructure befitting a leading nation. Social services must become a reality close at hand and not a vague dream lying in the distance."
Tinubu equally called for the reform of the fuel subsidy regime.
He said: "For example, we must reform the current fuel subsidy regime. At this stage it causes more problems than it cures. Bottlenecks of long fuel queues, erratic supply, resultant economic dislocations for consumers from lack of fuel and the corrupt practices of trade insiders undermine the good intentions upon which the subsidy is based.
"Currently, the subsidy does not benefit the average person. It sweetly profits the elites who manipulate the program to their own advantage. We need to allow market forces to more directly determine price. We need to open the now closed market to more suppliers. In this way, we may better harmonise supply and demand, where they do the most sustainable economic good.
"In addition, we must repair our social safety net. Old people who have given so much to the nation are being shortchanged and forced to live in penury when they should be living in the dignity due their advanced years and their former labours.
"Mr. President won the 2015 election on a platform that included economic recovery, job creation and improved welfare for workers. In keeping with his promise, one of his first executive actions was to arrange federal funding of nearly N800 billion for states to pay salary arrears; also, the subsequent refund of over N800 billion of Paris Club excess payment came with a similar guidance to State Governors to prioritise salary arrears and payments.
"These laudable initiatives notwithstanding, clearing of salary arrears is still not fully achieved although it has clearly taken on an importance not seen in prior governments. Meanwhile, the issue of longstanding mounting arrears of pension payments and retirement benefits to public sector workers remains outstanding. The total figure is estimated in trillions. This not only results in untold hardship for pensioners and their families, it denies the economy of needed stimulus and growth from the increased purchasing power resulting from payment of pensions.
"In short, the progressive governance we seek will open the door to affordable housing for the average family, consumer credit for those with steady employment and the provision of basic welfare to our most vulnerable citizens."
The National Leader of the All Progressives Congress, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, has called for impactful reforms for the ruling party to fulfil its pledge to the Nigerian people.

A daily post, highlighting the best things to do around town today (that aren't fully booked). We welcome additions in the comments.
ARTS: The Nour Festival of art from the Middle East and North Africa begins today in Kensington and Chelsea. No events are programmed for today, but do take a look through the programme, which lasts two months. A series of artworks and photos themed around tea and coffee can be seen on Portobello Wall from today. All day
PHOTOS: Photomonth, East London's misleadingly named photography festival, which actually sprawls over more than two months, begins in earnest. Over 20 events and exhibitions open today alone, in venues that range from libraries to pubs...even police stations. Check out the programme here. All day
ARTY PHYSICS: The Jiggling Atoms exhibition opens at the Rag Factory, Heneage Street, Spitalfields. 25 artists sat through five lectures about particle physics, then dashed back to their canvases, moulding wax and knitting needles to create works inspired by the madness of the quantum world. The show runs till 7 October and is free. All day
PROCESSION: If you're in the West End, somewhere between the law courts and Westminster Abbey, look out for a procession of cars carrying judges in full regalia. Ian Visits tells us that today is the start of the legal year, and their learned m'lords and m'ladies are heading to the Judges Service at the Abbey. 11am-11.30am
FREE FOOD: We hear that Tortilla Mexican restaurant on Market Place, just north of Oxford Circus, is giving away free Californian burritos to the first 100 people who turn up after midday. The promotion is something to do with a new Will Ferrell DVD, and you'll need to utter the password "I'm here for the house of my father!". 12-2pm
ODDBALL DINING: New restaurant and ping pong venue Bounce (main image) opens at 121 Holborn, supposedly the same site where the sport was invented in 1901. Tables (of both kind) are no doubt booked up for opening night, but pop along early to take a look. 4pm
LITERATURE: Publisher Picador celebrates its 40th birthday with what our literary correspondent eloquently describes as a "metric fuckton of excellent writers", including Jon Ronson, Jackie Kay, Stuart Evers, Naomi Wood and Ed Docx. Yours for £9.50, prebook here, 7pm
SHARD: Gift certificates for the Shard's viewing gallery are supposedly on sale from some point today.
ART: Today is also the press view for the Turner Prize 2012, so expect Tate Britain to be all over the news tonight.
Random Fact Of The Day
London and the South-East contain an estimated 30,000 wild parakeets. No one's quite sure how the green blighters first escaped into the wild, but they're now an unmistakable and noisy presence in many of London's larger parks. Theories abound on where the founding pairs escaped from, including the set of African Queen or the private aviary of Jimi Hendrix. If you'd like to find out more about the birds, Project Parakeet will perform the next population count on 7 October, and needs volunteers. Image of a Peckham parakeet by Tubb in the Londonist Flickr pool.
"It's been raining for the whole of October," you'll be able to quip until at least midday. The tenth month gets under way with heavy downpours, till someone deletes the clouds in late afternoon. Mild all day. BBC Weather.
Secretly Hidden False Rumour Of The Day
The New Bus For London is powered entirely by balsamic vinegar. While cheaper than diesel, the unorthodox fuel does add a certain eau de chipshop to the buses. Have a good sniff of your seat next time you board one.

Relevancy and effect of judgments, orders or decrees, other
than those mentioned in section 41.- Judgments, orders
or decrees other than those mentioned in section 41, are relevant
if they relate to matters of a public nature relevant to the
enquiry, but such judgments, orders or decrees are not conclusive
proof of that which they state.
A sues B for trespass on his land. B alleges the existence
of a public right of way over the land, which A denies.
The existence of a decree in favour of the
defendant, in a suit by A against C for a trespass on the
same land in which C alleged the existence of the same right
of way, is relevant, but it is not conclusive proof that the
right of way exists.

Winter is the time of dry, scaly skin! I have spent a lot of money on expensive body lotions and creams over the years, and I was so excited to find this inexpensive option at the drugstore: Eucerin Eczema Relief Body Creme.
Full disclosure: I don't have eczema, so I can't really say how well this product works for that condition. However, it is AMAZING for general dry skin. Eight ounces will set you back about $7 which is a great deal for body lotion! I've spent $40-70 on expensive lotions that didn't moisturize nearly this well.
One of the great things about this lotion is that a little goes a long way. The product consistency is pretty thick, but it covers a lot of area. It also dries really quickly, which is a huge bonus. I don't know about you, but I hate feeling sticky after I've applied lotion and I'm just waiting for it to dry! This product won't cause any of that.
The scent is also almost scentless. It does smell like lotion, but it does not come across as overwhelmingly chemical in scent, and the lotion scent does fade pretty quickly. I prefer this because that means I can pair it with any perfume or body spray that I own.
Overall, this is a great price for a great product that everyone really needs in the winter! It has absolutely replaced Bliss Naked Body Butter as my go-to body moisturizer.

Kevin Winter/Getty Images
Mo'nique claims that she now knows why the offers didn't start flooding in after her big Oscar win in 2010.
The former star of The Parkers, who won the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress for her role as the title character's abusive, domineering mother in Precious, writes in an essay in the Feb. 27 issue of The Hollywood Reporter that director-producer Lee Daniels clued her in just a few months ago.
Noting that an Oscar win "normally does" lead to "more respect, choices, money" in the business, Mo'Nique writes, "But I got a phone call from Lee Daniels...And he said to me, 'Mo'Nique, you've been blackballed.' I said, 'Why?' And he said, 'Because you didn't play the game.'"

The movie begins with a sickeningly cute Hellboy (as a boy) brushing his teeth, excited for his bedtime story. And the story is? Yep, the saga of the Golden Army, and told in wooden puppet form, it looks pretty cool. Cut to: the present-the bedtime story is now a reality. An evil prince has to assemble three scattered pieces of a golden crown to raise the evil Golden Army from its dormancy to unleash Hell on earth...here's where Hellboy excels. He likes to kick monster butt.
Hellboy resides in a paranormal research center that is actually the home of a bunch of human oddities that would fare well in a freak sideshow. Oh, and they fight crime. Everyone's back, including sidekick fish-boy Abe Sapien (Doug Jones), but without David Hyde-Pierce's voice. Stepping into the webs-flipper-gills, Jones brings some credibility. Hellboy's girlfriend, Liz the Fire-Girl (Selma Blair) returns as does their totally lame love story. Manning (Jeffery Tambor) is once again the head of the government funded super-freak hideaway.
Perlman is a perfect Hellboy-a diverse actor that hardly anyone knows, remaining even more incognito with all that red makeup and Samurai hairdo. Blair is always good, but hasn't much to do here, but whine and act supportive.
Director Guillermo Del Toro uses the film to extend his vision of the Pan's Labyrinth city. There are tooth fairies, little gremlin-like things with piranha teeth and bat wings, a legless troll and attached cart, crawling with sand crabs, a wormy troll-eating kitties (seen only through special glasses), a spiny monster with a ball and chain for a hand, a fortune-teller with a cathedral for a head, an eyeball-winged Angel of Death (resembling high-tech Harryhausen) and a Forest monster looking like an Earthday version of the creature in Cloverfield. And there's more in the troll market with psychedelic beasts of all shapes and sizes crawling out of the woodwork. The top-notch creatures assembled from Del Toro's imagination never give the feeling of overt high-tech showboating. It's as though he infused the LSD-laden Fillmore/Avalon ballroom posters from the 60s with the Greco-Roman and Renaissance period, adding a dash of Godzilla for extra flair. He's also big on gears and mechanical gizmos with all their precision. The skillfully choreographed fight scenes amidst grinding cogwheels were proficiently violent and well staged. Even the fact that there was hardly any blood didn't bug me.
The music was well chosen; the use of Eels' "Beautiful Freak" was cool if not exactly original. But the winning scene when Abe and Hellboy drown their girl troubles with Tecate and sing to Barry Manilow is absolutely hilarious.
Hellboy II has its moments of hokey cornball crap, and was sometimes too big for its own good especially near the end. It gets to be an overload, but this is a small price to pay for artistic comic book extravaganza. This movie has so much eye candy there's no possible way one can get bored. Del Toro's superb and extreme artistic vision actually really is good for all ages. It also keeps a positive message left over from Pan's: "in death there is beauty."
There's plenty of twisted beauty in Hellboy II. It's a campy romp with monster clobbering, a trite love story and a bevy of repugnant/warped creatures that can conjure up a dangerous acid flashback within seconds...or so I'm told.
Hellboy II: The Golden Army ★★★✩✩
Starring: Ron Perlman, Selma Blair, Jeffery Tambor, Doug Jones. Director: Guillermo Del Toro

6 reasons why any romance novel should be good enough to standalone
By Tanya on Feb 2nd, 2015
#1Ahem..It IS Called a Book isn't it?As we are not living in the age of the Magazine Serial any longer, a book should always be able to stand alone as a complete story, otherwise, why call it a book? Anyone who has read the Chronicles of Narnia as a child knows that each book can be read quite pleasurably separately or as a rich narrative as a set. Take Diana Gabaldon's Outlander series (awesomest sex ever!! btw), her novels came out years apart, so each reading experience was akin to starting over with just the vaguest of memories of the plot and many warm feelings of anticipation. Gabaldon respects her readers by not assuming each one has just that very moment finished the preceding installment of her series. Instead, she uses her hard work and writing skills to make each addition to the set whole and fabulous and full of information so that you didn't have to dig out your old copies or, horror, google the plot to keep track of what's going on and to remember who Claire was married to. Sigh..why can't all books be so wonderful?
#2It Separates the Big Dogs From Those Annoying Little Yappy DogsYes, writing a book is hard. And, yes, writing a good book is even harder - it's almost like a bit of magic has to happen. But, as the coffee ladies at my old workplace used to say, when I'd foolishly wondered aloud at the richness of their coffee latte's with espresso ice cream topped with chocolate whip, replied, aghast at my stupidity " GO BIG OR GO HOME!" it dawned on me that not all authors and publishers are created equally. It absolutely takes a certain level of skill to weave the history of characters and past plot points into a current novel, but it can be done. It shows the talent of a writer, not just someone trying to rip and run and make a buck off of an enticing cover and outline or a quick turnaround to ride the coattails of the latest zombie craze. Even if a book starts out as a standalone and then through sheer popularity an author is encouraged to add subsequent books and the initial story suddenly morphs into a series, it obviously should be a prerequisite to add referencing details to the next book. I mean really, if an author wants to run with the big dogs, it's better if their bark matches it's bite.
#3Never Overestimate Available Brain SpaceHey, even children's books have a map and a list of characters in their introductory pages to help keep readers focused and on track with a complex storyline. Us grown ups are not that much different than kids in terms of available brain function. So, to not provide stealthily placed flashbacks, bits of reference or an outright "Guide to Who the Hell These Characters Are" section is ludicrous. The assumption is that the average adult with a full time job, family, social commitments and a myriad of other things on the go has got the capacity to remember all of the details from Part 1 to Part 6 of any novel set is just plain wrong-headed!! Readers, for the most part, are simply overworked folk who just want to escape the daily grind for a few hours of pleasure and distraction. Bottom line: if my brain has to work harder than it does at my day job to keep track of the action or the characters from past books in a series, then it's usually game over, book in the bin, or worse, donated to my doctor's office waiting room.
#419 Million Can't Be a CoincidenceIf a simple Google search results in over 19,400,000 hits for "Standalone Books" (and yes! it does), then might I humbly suggest that it's time we stop having to distinguish between standalones and series books? Come on people, every popular book-reviewing, book-recommending and book-discussion website seems to have an on-going message board disputes about whether it's better for a book to be a standalone or not. The question is obvious: why do we need to keep books that aren't really acting like books in the category of books? Let's just kill two birds with one stone and have every book reach the standard of a standalone. It just seems lazy not to. Otherwise just call non-standalones what they really are: 'serial' installments and let novels get on with the business of being novels. I will step down from my soapbox now.
#5A Missed Marketing OpportunityTo write a book in such a way so that only the truest, bluest, loyalist fans can understand and follow a book is short sighted and not a very smart move on the part of authors and publishers, whether they be amateur or professional. The wider an audience a book satisfies, the better chance an author has to establish fans and thus begin a groundswell for their next work. A finite audience of diehards will never grow sales fast enough or spread the circle of an author's greatness far enough, even if they may light up message boards with impassioned defenses of non-standalone books. The point is that an author will never know when and how and which book of their series will reach a reader. A chance discovery on a friend's shelf, a library giveaway bin, or a book club. Isn't giving readers a quality standalone book just a smart thing to do to keep readers coming back for more?
#6A Bad Book is Like a Pair of Dirty Men's UnderwearWhen I was a teen a woman came into the chain store I worked at one evening and returned underwear her husband had worn. YES, had worn, as in used and dirty. And guess what? The manager took them back. Yes, she did, without batting an eye. I quietly asked the manager why she accepted the return when it clearly stated on the package that underwear was NOT a returnable item. Her answer: For every good experience a customer has in a store, they will tell maybe 2 people, but for every bad experience they have in a store, they will most definitely tell 10 people on average. Now think back to the time you saw the ripped torso of a godly man calling out to you from the cover of a paperback. An impulse buy, it may have turned out to be the second or third installment in a four part series, but you didn't notice because you never even glanced at the back. Now think about if the book didn't make any sense because to understand it you would have had to have read the books preceding it. Think about your disappointment, your wasted time and your now wasted money. Would you ever buy another book from that author? How many people would you tell about that bewildering doosey of a stinker?
Agree or disagree? What is your take on standalone versus serials, and did you encounter books which did it extremely well or bad? Let us know in the comments!

TU's restore and reconnect efforts in the Mid Atlantic got a boost last week from the National Fish and Wildlife Foundation's Chesapeake Bay Stewardship Fund. TU's Shenandoah Headwaters and Potomac Headwaters Home Rivers Initiatives received three grants for conservation work on farmland in those places. A fourth grant, awarded to Frederick County, Maryland, will support an ongoing TU-County partnership there.
All projects are designed to restore brook trout habitat while also cleaning up waterways that drain into the Chesapeake Bay. They'll also make the fishing better. View a complete list of the projects here.
At an award ceremony in DC last week, NRCS Chief Jason Weller praised TU's Shenandoah Valley project in his remarks on this year's grants. It was great to hear TU being called out for its fine work among its peers and several other conservation leaders, including Senator Ben Cardin (MD) and EPA Administrator Gina McCarthy.
Kevin Anderson is Trout Unlimited's Chesapeake Bay Land Protection Coordinator and is based in TU's national office in Arlington, Va. This post originally appeared at www.tu.org.

Although it is a little disheartening that 93% of the US Senate voted for essentially getting rid of the 5th, 6th, and 7th amendments at least 7 had the guts to vote against it. Here they are:
- Thomas Coburn (R-Oklahoma)
- Thomas Harken (D-Iowa)
- Mike Lee (R-Utah)
- Jeff Merkley (D-Oregon)
- Rand Paul (R-Kentucky)
- Bernard Sanders (I-Vermont)
- Ron Wyden (D-Oregon)
It is nice to see a mix of Republican, Democrats, and an Independent. Maybe if more voting records were as mixed as this we would have a more functional Congress. In addition, it is nice to see that some Senators still vote based on their convictions.
President Obama seems to be afraid to do anything out of fear of making a mistake, and that has been his biggest mistake. We need an intelligent, well-spoken, and respectful person to lead this nation to great things. Something that seems to get overlooked now is a need for administrative experience. As Obama is proving now the White House is not a great place to learn how to be an effective administrator. With Ron Paul and Gary Johnson both running for President on very similar platforms-Johnson is running as a Libertarian Candidate while Paul, although Libertarian, is running as a Republican- Paul has gotten the majority of the support and money. Even though Paul is well respected he has not had to balance his views with that of running a government as Johnson has as the governor of New Mexico. Johnson has done an excellent job of being an administrator and a politician, while many running have only been politicians.
The media should pay more attention to people who have successfully run governments as that is what elections should truly be about: a good candidate who has administrative experience and strong convictions to guide him through the daily tasks of leading this country. The seven senators who voted against NDAA showed strong convictions in voting "nay" and if any of them had administrative experience or get it soon any one of them should be a viable candidate inane election. It takes courage to vote against a bill like that and they should all be commended for their courage.

Yesterday I picked up J from the school bus and then much to his chagrin we worked on his spelling homework. The MacMAME 0.37b11a (Multiple Arcade Machine Emulator) version of 'Gauntlet' is keeping R very entertained. With both of us playing 'warrior' and 'valkyrie' we went up to the 90th level before dinner.
The Bravo channel last night was showing "The Godfather". I do not believe that my godfather had any similarity with the 'Don Vito Corleone' character but then, I never really inquired into his business. He was a dentist like his father before him, his father being the first dentist in America of Chinese decent.
A deal you couldn't refuse from the dental chair??
Today I am again going to pick up J from the bus, but then we are going to get R from his school and bring home some baked potatoes from a Berkeley restaurant called 'Spud Bros.'. A 'pizza potato' for J, a 'classic' for D, and a pesto covered potato for R.
The redwood sapling 'julia' is continuing to grow very nicely on D's balcony, meanwhile a sapling that I got at the SFLNC benefit party in San Francisco is starting to flourish.
I am alive again.

Summer is upon us with its ever colorful atmosphere and hype! Fashion designers and brands are ready and already showcasing their collections to get us prepared for a blissful fashionable summer.
Indeed, African designers continue to embrace the their cultural aspects with a hint of western designs. Above all, they are gradually creating a unique space on the Global Fashion Map and in the process, setting the pace for other designers to follow. Tanzanian brand Eskado Bird is one brand that continues to feed our fashion appetite with their unique, graphic and fun collection.
"Kaleidoscopic Love Bird was the original name of this Spring Summer 2014 Swahili Fashion Week Collection was inspired by the astonishing, luminous and symmetrical shapes of its print.
The print could almost suggest that it was the reflection of the visions seen at the other end of a Kaleidoscope. The multiple reflections seen at the other end of a Kaleidoscope inspired the pattern placement of this collections design.
With every twist, the kaleidoscope makes magic with light and mirrors. Kaleidoscope, meaning beauty, is a toy used to observe beautiful forms. Love Bird is a collection that worships and acknowledges beautiful forms, the several beautiful forms of a Lady Bird."
Eskado Bird is an evolving Tanzanian fashion and lifestyle brand inspired by the 21st Century Afropolitan movement. The labels modern collections have a fresh and sensual feel, creating alluring silhouettes that compliment our woman by making her look confident and feel effortlessly styled.
Doreen Noni is the owner and Creative Director of Eskado Bird. Her effortless talent, contemporary vision and connection to her African roots have fueled her rise in the fashion industry in Tanzania over a very short period of time.
"My inspiration to create the label came from my mother, Jacqueline Daniel who set up a Boutique in 1991, then known as Eskado Boutique, naming it after me, her last born and only daughter, Estazia(ES) Kang'wa(KA) Doreen(DO)", says Doreen. "After discovering that my surname, Noni, is actually a bird from my father's village, I decided to merge the two names to form a new label that represents my full entity – ESKADO BIRD" explains Doreen.

A post (from SlimShady) in repsonse to my post about my new tune pointed out this link to a band with some really interesting music online.... http://www.soundclick.com/bands/9/celiacmusic.htm Now, I can't tell if this is a collaborative effort (a band) or if this is like what I do (it's all just me in my basement with a PC, and Alesis QS8.1 and a whole mess of horns and a few tape decks), but the result is truly unique. The use of trumpet is sparse, but quite interesting. Check it out!!! Peace, all. Nick Drozdoff

—Clarion, 2004 Ages: 3-6
"Those naughty monkeys are back, this time they're tormenting their baby-sitter...A delightful choice for a group setting or for one-on-one sharing."
—School Library Journal
"Where are those monkeys?
Where did they go?
Where are they hiding?
I really don't know!"
It's bedtime for monkeys...but when Mama's out dancing and Lulu is the babysitter, thereユs always time for a game of hide-and-seek...and the another, and ANOTHER...until those monkeys find the best hiding place of all! Uh oh! Will Lulu find them before Mama comes home? Read the book and you'll find out!
How high can you count? First Lulu counts to 10, then to 24, then to 104! Count along with her!
The drawings were done in ink on vellum. I photocopied the line onto Fabriano Hot Press watercolor paper and then painted the color with acrylic gouache.
She's a stylish teenager with a fancy hairdo (fur-do?) and equal to the job. This is her first book. She'll be back in 2013!

This weekend marks the 240th birthday of the United States Army. As many of those who follow me know, I love soldiers. I've worked alongside them in a civilian capacity for almost twenty years and I admire, respect, and celebrate their selfless service. Soldiers will do anything we ask of them—including sacrifice their lives—to ensure we remain a free nation. The hope and change catchpenny beloved by the politicians needs a solid foundation of peace in which to grow. Sometimes, that peace only comes on the other side of war.
Today, I'd like to talk about the story behind the plot of my novel, "Once a Soldier." All my royalties from this book benefit the Wounded Warrior Project making it a story near and dear to my heart. When I wrote the first story in The Domenico Family Case Files series, I wanted a strong protective "big brother" prototype for my heroine. However, this character needed to appear, make his "older-brother-knows-best" pitch, and then disappear. Delta Force operative, Marco Domenico, did an admirable job at fulfilling the role, so admirable that I couldn't get him out of my mind. A tall, strong, handsome, protective man...we all know at least one...but who protects him when things go wrong?
All stories start with the question, "what if" and Marco's story is no different. When a mission goes wrong and Marco suffers severe injuries that may prevent him from walking again, he needs a little help from someone besides the Army, his family, and the woman who is his secret love. An unusual therapist with a love of the Old West comes to his aid and with his help, Marco heals and begins a new life.
Not all our wounded warriors are as fortunate, but Marco's story gave me the opportunity to talk about what they face psychologically while describing their personal challenges, courage, and the determination to heal and live full lives. I am a romance author, however, and "Once a Soldier" is no exception. In this short novel, I attempted to bring my readers into today's environment, give them the sense of the impact of war on a relationship, and allow them to experience the complex emotions of two people attracted by fate.
I don't often ask people to go out and buy my books. Certainly they are for sale, but I leave the decision up to them. "Once a Soldier" is the exception. Go to your favorite online retailer and download the book. You won't be sorry. Your purchase will give you an enjoyable short read and benefit the Wounded Warrior Project at the same time.

Building an Email List the Right Way
Whether a business has only-just become officially registered, or whether it is shedding an age-old brick-and-mortar counterpart to generate a distinctive presence online – the gut and core of online business operations whittle down to effective advertising initiatives online. Building an email list can help drive sales and keep in contact with your users. And part of that is maintaining proper email list hygiene.
Online marketing campaigns can face their fair share of hurdles and obstacles in the long run: changing algorithms make for social-media marketing to become volatile territory to successfully traverse; moreover, search-engine requirements are in a form of continual development. A single company might generate top-notch online content, and design a main website layout that ticks all the correct boxes. However, without it ranking significantly high in top search results, there might be no cashable traffic to consume such content. Furthermore, an annual sales plan to maintain a loyal customer base might become futile if target audiences are not being sufficiently acquired in the first place.
An email-list, on the other hand, is a medium wherein a business can retain complete control over; a brand can pack a typical email with any amount of offers, coupons, information, and content as is required; such marketing packages can then be carted off at whichever time the overseer deems both suitable, and lucrative, with regards to a specific audience of interest.
Permission-based emailing carries very little risk, a higher profit margin, and can be executed fairly quickly; with all that being noted, it is time to cover how you, a business operating online, can best build and curate an email-list.
The very first step should involve selecting an appropriate email service provider (ESP). An email service provider whittles down your task to the very basic processes of selection and testing, allowing a business to experiment with varying templates, layouts, and services before firing off a handful of emails. Such a service will offer the tools required to attract relevant subscribers, and test which sales campaigns might work best with such. Where some providers are available free of cost, others might charge a monthly rate based on varying specifics.
Once a relevant ESP has the layout, tools, and specific details taken care of, it is time to launch into the second phase: acquiring subscribers. Since email-list marketing is entirely permission-based, businesses often reach towards significant lengths in order to convince potential consumers to sign-on with their email addresses. Whether this involves the promise of exclusive discounts, free content, or otherwise a simple banner on a main website – the simpler, more direct the acquisition process is, the better. For the latter, a sign-up form can take the form of a simple banner at the end of each page within the website, or as a pop-up box every time a user is redirected towards the homepage.
The second step essentially caters with any traffic that might be visiting a main website. However, building a healthy emailing list extends far beyond a handful of sign-ups. Certain businesses dole out a portion of their marketing budget to partner with sponsors and marketers, or otherwise take to influencers online with endorsement deals.
Maintaining an active social media presence can allow potential customers to reach a sign-up form through a Pinterest mood-board, WordPress blog, or even a Facebook page.
Conventional and print media might also serve a valuable purpose, in that each advertisement might include offers to sign-up via email addresses in order to avail unique discounts and sales offers.
Chances are, shoppers might pay greater attention towards all the boxes in a check-out form. Include a small option which shoppers can tick to agree to an automatic email subscription.
Once you have built your list make sure to periodically update it to keep it fresh and remove any stale email addresses.

Energy saving techniques for dehumidifiers:
As far as possible the electric appliance is placed in the ventilation position, the electric appliances with standby state, such as color TV, should try to make the electricity in the standby state as far as possible. The internal parts will distribute heat, disperse the tide in the body of the machine, prevent the dehumidifier from the internal components and prevent the damage of the internal components. In addition, the residents who live in the lower layer and the humidity is bigger, it is best to consider buying a dehumidifier to improve the air humidity. If the electrical appliances are abnormal, they should turn off the power immediately, and ask professionals to repair them in time. In such weather, people can put some hygroscopic substances indoors, or use dehumidifiers or air conditioners. Once the fine weather, attention must be paid to the quilt and pillow home more dry, keep the clothes dry. According to the living conditions and dehumidification machine's dehumidification ability to choose, it is according to the area area, layer height, humidity, air circulation degree, living room, bedroom and study room, which should choose the suitable area of the wet machine and the dehumidifier to choose the dehumidifier. Choose according to the practical application of space. The dehumidifier is to be fixed or easy to move. This is the choice of different regions for different air humidity requirements. For some humid areas, fixed dehumidifiers can be installed, which saves space. Dehumidifier combined with refrigeration for dehumidification, compared with the latter, the latter can save 20-30% more than the former. If the user has the conditions of supplying steam, the energy saving effect of this way will be more significant.

Mothers Day round 2
McIntosh Mothers Day was heaps of fun, but Keith and I both collapsed exhausted at the end of the weekend. Ivy is going through a night-party-owl phase, where after her 11pm feed she gets a new burst of energy and wants to wave her arms, kick her legs and make squeaky noises. She'll wriggle right out of her swaddle which means we can't put her to bed, so we wedge her in between us in the big bed and hold her arms down while she squirms and cranes her head back and forth between us imploringly, waiting for one of us to crack and say 'sleep! a losers caper... lets go and play a wild old game of upside-down-baby'. Sometimes it takes until one for her to go back to sleep.
Tim. Liam and Ivy had fun together although Timmy did take a spectacular backwards somersault off the deck stairs. No major damage - luckily he was wearing his new workmans hat.
Brendan and Mama did all the washing up - what guests. If only we could invite them over after dinner every night. Much of the late afternoon was spent trying to convince Mama not to buy us a dishwasher. When I said 'Look,it's not me - Keith's just really not going to budge', she got a stubborn glint in her eye and said 'Well, if it just turns up on the doorstep he won't be able to do anything about it...'
Where have I seen this stubbornness before, I wonder?

Stewart Farms needs to establish Canada's largest aquaponics and indoor vertical farming system in St. Stephen. Additionally they have a number of different aquaponics items on site for seedling development and fish farming. If the pH is just too high, it's typically an indication that the plant biofilters are not maintaining with the fish's manufacturing of ammonia. The typical temperature of the water have an effect on the species of fish you may choose to have in your system. The MW one hundred and one pH Meter is a small portable pH Meter that options guide temperature Aquaponics For Sale calibration and an ingenious gel- crammed, double-life junction electrodes which are removable and replaceable for easy storage and maintenance. Mineralization is essential in aquaponics as a result of it is the course of wherein all of the other minerals are generated from the fish waste. Rather than using chemical substances, fertilizers or filtration, the microorganisms flip fish waste into nutrients for tomato and cucumber vegetation. Eliminating soil from the system eliminates lots of work in vegetable gardening.
The pH56 is a pH tester with Giant dual-stage LCD that shows pH and temperature (°C or °F). As soon as you've realized about how one can feed your fish, the type of foods that they need, and when to feed your fish, you will soon see your fish maturing proper before your eyes. Reciprocating aquaponics: solid media in a container that's alternately flooded and drained utilizing several types of siphon drains. Come and see what makes our Closed-Loop approach so unique and see how we may also help you make your Aquaponics tasks extra than just sustainable. That and other options of aquaponic fish management result in the decision to postpone CNG certification for aquaponic fish until a later date. Evidently, this undertaking remains to be in the design levels; but as soon as it is up and running, what we envision is a world-extensive network of Okay-12 faculties with Aquaponics STEM Meals Growing Systems. Aquaponics is the one expertise confirmed in fashionable science and historic precedent to offer considerable meals, water, land and power for the people who want it. Tilapia are simple to boost and plenty of tilapia breeders can Aquaponics Design attest to the ruggedness of this fish relating to what sort of fish meals they will eat. It really is no effort to deal with, just feed the fish and watch it grow, thats it! The best possible fish to use is blue, crimson or white tilapia as a result of they're resilient to adjustments in the water quality and are finest suited to the water temperature required for optimum plant growth. The goal was to transform an current Costa Rican Aquaculture undertaking right into a Permaculture based mostly Aquaponics farm and Institute.
Nor Cal Aquaponics is currently working with the Agriculture department at Ukiah Excessive College to construct an Diy Aquaponics Plans on campus that will serve as an educational model, working farm, student run enterprise and income source for the UHS Ag. Dept. As soon as your system has matured, all it's a must to do is feed your fish, manage your system's water temperature, pH and oxygen levels and just letting it's. Sweet Water Organics, an city aquaponics firm, raises perch and leafy inexperienced vegetables in an previous manufacturing unit that housed a mining firm till the 1950s.

Lately, conventional filth first" natural farmers have been pushing the USDA's National Organic Requirements Board (NOSB) to make aquaponics and hydroponics ineligible for the Natural label.

Apparently, the two sig sauer romeo red dot and holographic seashores look comparable. However, a closer inspection reveals how they differ from the other person in more than 1 method. The holographic sights function using the hologram technology grouped together in a enduring construct design. They are great for use in intense circumstances. The red dot sights make use of the LED engineering to make the reticle. However, there are similarities also. For instance both are just a few batteries. So far as manufacturers are concerned, Aimpoint rankings as a popular reddish dot view whereas Eotech holographic sights are rather common. It appears that these places from Eotech had been by the US army in tracking down Container Laden.
How do those function?
As a riflescope both of them are used by the shooters all over the world. However, this always helps when you've got a really clear understanding of how they function. The hologram technologies from the holographic places list along with rebuild the lighting area because it warms aside because of 3 dimensional object. When that is accomplished, it helps the saving of knowledge that is in fact preserved. The recording also enables several experiencing instructions together. The audience alters the view simply by shifting their mind.
Both differ from the way they function
For picture mechanics are very popular options. But it wouldn't be possible to write down the gaps simply by simple assessment. The main difference is at how which they function. The red us dot or automatic sight uses the Brought (low energy) that helps with producing the actual reticle. The holographic view, on the other hand, makes use of strong lasers to discover the reticle.

Come on in, the door is open! I've started this blog as a place for conversations about education and technology and anything related. I plan to post about my progress in the Masters in Education program that I am undertaking at Bishop Grosseteste University College where I also work as an e-Learning Resource Developer.
I'm also looking forward to using this blog to interact with the network of people on the Massive Open Online Course called Change: Education, Learning, and Technology! More information about the course can be found here. I'm joining the course which is already in progress and have been catching up with the previous sessions. I will be posting some notes and reflections from that material soon and look forward to some feedback from the other participants.
In the mean time, here's a short video of one my very early inspirations, Isaac Asimov. Unfortunately, this clip starts mid sentence but there are a few nice bits in there. Enjoy!

If you are a pet owner, you likely share many aspects of your daily lives with your animal companion: playtime, bed space, time spent outside on walks. These moments help to construct a deep bond between you and your pet, but they should generally be exempt of one act: sharing food.
It can be extremely tempting to feed your pet during dinner or as you sit on the couch with a bowl of snacks. You may feel as if you are strengthening your bond further, or maybe you are just easily swayed by a begging expression. However, it is important to understand that some of your favorite foods can be harmful and toxic to pets.
Here are a few common human foods you should never feed to your pets.
Chocolate is notorious for being a detriment to pet health, specifically for cats and dogs. This reputation is well-deserved, as chocolate can cause poisoning that may include an upset stomach, increased body temperature, rapid breathing, and seizures. Advanced stages of this poisoning can lead to cardiac failure and coma.
While most nuts have a variety of health benefits for humans, they should not be fed to pets. Almonds, pecans, and most members of the walnut family in particular are found to cause gastrointestinal problems and pancreatitis in many pets.
Like nuts, avocados are known for their numerous health benefits in humans – reaching "superfood" status in the nutritional world. For pets, however, these fruits can cause several serious health problems. In dogs and cats, avocado consumption can cause an upset stomach and a lack of stool production. Birds may experience difficulty breathing, organ failure, and death. Ruminant mammal pets, such as sheep and goats, may experience acute death.
The idea of getting your pet drunk may seem morbidly amusing at first, but this is a temptation you should strongly avoid. Alcohol can have a variety of adverse effects on pets, usually the same ones that plague humans after excessive consumption: vomiting, loss of coordination, and tremors, to name a few. However, it only takes small amounts of certain alcohols for pets to face serious health concerns.
Xylitol is a common artificial sweetener found in toothpaste, candy, baked goods, and gum. While the substance is not a food itself, the foods that contain it can be harmful to your pet's health if consumed. Xylitol consumption is found to increase insulin production in most species, which can lead to vomiting, seizures, and liver failure.

Extreme weather during a Phoenix summer encourages both misery and humor. Beware of unkind reactions to the phrase, "Is it hot enough for you?"
A friend of mine sent this poem to me via email. I tried to find the original source of the poem, but I didn't have much luck. I did see it on many different sites on the Internet, none of which provided the name of the original writer. It does appear that this poem was adapted from the original, which was written with Texas in mind.
But it is so appropriate for Arizona that I guess it belongs to us now!
When I asked people about what they thought about living in Phoenix, the responses varied greatly. Some people, love it, some people hate it. Some people this it's hell on earth, and not only because of the high summer temperatures. This poem is dedicated to them!
Ah, Arizona!
The devil wanted a place on earth
Sort of a summer home
A place to spend his vacation
Whenever he wanted to roam.
So he picked out Arizona
A place both wretched and rough
Where the climate was to his liking
And the cowboys hardened and tough.
He dried up the streams in the canyons
And ordered no rain to fall
He dried up the lakes in the valleys
Then baked and scorched it all.
Then over his barren country
He transplanted shrubs from hell.
The cactus, thistle and prickly pear
The climate suited them well.
Now the home was much to his liking
But animal life, he had none.
So he created crawling creatures
That all mankind would shun.
First he made the rattlesnake
With it's forked poisonous tongue.
Taught it to strike and rattle
And how to swallow it's young.
Then he made scorpions and lizards
And the ugly old horned toad.
He placed spiders of every description
Under rocks by the side of the road.
Then he ordered the sun to shine hotter,
Hotter and hotter still.
Until even the cactus wilted
And the old horned lizard took ill.
Then he gazed on his earthly kingdom
As any creator would
He chuckled a little up his sleeve
And admitted that it was good.
Twas summer now and Satan lay
By a prickly pear to rest.
The sweat rolled off his swarthy brow
So he took off his coat and vest.
"By Golly, " he finally panted,
"I did my job too well,
I'm going back to where I came from,
Arizona is hotter than Hell. "

Breon O'Casey (Irish Artist Directory)
Full Name: Breon O'Casey
Lived: 1928 -
Categories: Sculptor, Painter, Weaver
Artist Biography
Long associated with the St. Ives School of painters, O'Casey began his studies at the Anglo-French Art Centre in London in 1949 and Saint Martin's School of Art in 1953 before completing an apprenticeship under Denis Mitchell and Barbara Hepworth. He has lived and worked in Cornwall since the 1970s, where the rich artist community has seen wealth of talent, including Tony O'Malley and William Scott. Rather than limiting himself to one method or medium, O'Casey is both a sculptor and painter, and has dabbled in crafts such as weaving. Birds are a common subject within his oeuvre, particularly for his sculptures. His work is included in many private and public collections, including a large sculpture, 'Ean Mor', situated in the grounds of Farmleigh House in Pheonix Park, and 'Bird' in bronze and wood on view at the Tate Britain, which also houses a number of works on paper. A prolific artist, he celebrated his 80th birthday in 2008 with a solo show at the Peppercanister Gallery, Dublin.

The other question was "Are there idols in your life that need to be replaced? What is He jealous for?" I decided that I have made an idol out of "self." Self-reliance, self-importance. Everything is about me and what I can do. But I realized that I can't. I can't do anything. I can't say yes to everything that is asked of me. I can't try to run a home, a business, and be there any and every time someone needs something from me. I can't make myself become a mother. I'm not in control of that. None of these things are in my power, yet I still act as if they are. Philippians 4:13 is for more than just running a marathon, folks. I need Christ's strength, daily and in all things. With God's help, I can do these things. It's just being brave enough to admit that I am not strong enough to do things by my power alone.
Here is a beautiful song by one of my favorite musical duos, Jenny & Tyler. It's called "Abide" and I think speaks perfectly about what I've been learning.
You strive, o man, and you strive again, your heart too proud to rest
You labor on, singing those songs, to cover your weakness
Do you fail to recall who you really are and Who caused you to be?
Return o man; return and rest, to a burden light and yoke easy
Abide in your Savior
Abide in His love
The labor of God is to trust in the Son
All you possess...do you forget, as if by your own strength
you earned it? No. He gave you all, everything you have.
Your righteousness, your life, your breath, your daily bread and wine,
His blood, His flesh, His love, His death, Your faith and endless life
Abide in your Savior
Abide in His love
The labor of God is to trust in the Son
Open up your doors
O my heart and soul
Open up your doors
Let the King come in
Let the King come in
Abide in me Savior
Abide in me Love
And daily I'll take my cross, follow after you Lord
Abide in me Savior
Abide in me Love
The labor of God is to trust
p.s. if you enjoyed this song, I highly encourage you to check out some of their other stuff...it's beautiful!
What has God been teaching you lately?
