Supernatural - Episode 6.18 - Frontierland - Recap / Review
Posted by Dahne1 at April 25, 2011 28 Comments
Previously, Samuel Colt made the world's largest Devil's Trap (Does Guinness know about this?) , Dean time traveled to 1973, Eve came from Purgatory and created the herpes worm but she was all talk and no action
…but it's too late. They zap back to Bobby's house and Dean wants to go back. No dice. Both Cas and Bobby are out of juice. Cas: "I never want to do that again." Well, it explains why they don't redo the same plan tomorrow. That's the problem with time travel stories. If you don't succeed the first time, wait awhile, grab a lunch or a nap, and try it again. There's no urgency. Dean asks about Bobby. "I'm still kicking Annie Oakley. Be back good as new in a decade or two." Dean has high guilt face, apologizing for his fun getting in the way of the job. At least, I think that's where it's going, but we're saved by the bell. The W Courier Express delivers a package to Sam they've had forever, yadda yadda. In short, this is either an homage to Back to the Future or the anvil of plot contrivance landed on my head. Since my ears are ringing, I pick the latter. My harping on how much I hate this ending will only kill the buzz of those who have this episode in their top 5 ever, so let's just say this is the biggest cop-out Supernatural has done in a long time. Right up there with Insta-Morning. The package from Samuel Colt includes Sam's phone, a note, and of course, the ashes of a phoenix. (cue heavy eye roll) Dean: "You know what this means." Bobby: "Yeah, I didn't get a soulonoscopy for nothing." Ha! Me: "The writers couldn't come up with a good ending." Dean nods: "Yes, and it means we take the fight to her." The theme of western justice drives us home as Dean puts his cowboy hat back on.
Next week: Eve tries her hand at truck stop waitress and makes herself a Mary demon. That ought to be sufficiently angsty for the brothers. Methinks the fun is at an end.

This week, let's welcome author C.J. Williams and his new book Rise of the Aces:
About C.J. Williams
Aspiring author. Mobile Logistics Technician. Husband. Father. Huge geek. Whovian. Gamer. Pun Master. Motormouth. Walking quotes/trivia dispenser. Excessive punctuation user.
Hello C.J.! Tell us all sorts of stuff about your book!
- – -
What is your book about?
"Rise of the Aces" tells the story of Lucas Decker, one of thousands of people worldwide who suddenly and mysteriously developed superpowers—the Aces. He's just trying to live his normal life, flying under the radar to avoid being placed on a government watch list. But his whole world falls apart when he's involved in a deadly accident that gives him the power of another Ace…along with his memories. Unfortunately for Lucas, the dead man was digging into a conspiracy surrounding the origin of their superpowers. Now, not only does Big Brother know about him, but he's also being targeted by a powerful, sinister organization that will stop at nothing to protect their secrets.
How did you come up with the story?
The original concept was a cross between Battle Royale and the Hunger Games; I had the idea of a random assortment of people being given one superhuman ability each and being forced to fight to the death, with each kill granting you the power of the person you defeated. In trying to flesh out a plot surrounding what I thought was a pretty neat concept, I thought of questions like "Who's making them do this? How did they get the powers?" and it morphed into its current form.
What makes this story different than other group-superhero/mutant stories?
Well, it's not that often you see someone with the ability to kill others and steal their powers, and when you do, they're usually a singular entity in their universe (Sylar from Heroes being a good example). I thought it would be uniquely terrifying to live in a world where anyone who has an ability can do it to someone else. And to my knowledge, I've never seen the power-stealing thing paired with absorbing the dead person's memories, especially not cumulatively.
Which character(s) do you most identify with and why?
There's a little bit of me in every character, to a greater or lesser degree. If I had to pick one, I probably identify most with Lucas; his sense of humor is much like mine, and I would probably act in a very similar fashion in his situation. I'd have about a million more questions about stuff though!
What is your writing process like?
It involves massive amounts of procrastination. For shorter works, I can write off the cuff and just make it up as I go along. For a bigger project like this, though, I write out a sort of outline ahead of time. It includes a short paragraph describing each character's traits and motivations, as well as any secrets they're keeping. Then there's also a brief list of scenes that need to happen in the order they should occur. As I progress through the book, it gives me a sense of what I need to cover in the part I'm currently writing and where I should be heading next. As for while I'm working, I listen to music at a low volume—typically instrumental so I don't have lyrics bouncing around in my head while I'm trying to think of words. Dubstep or EDM usually work really well.
What do you snack on while you write?
Not much in the way of snacks, as such. Candy, cookies, or potato chips, if anything. I almost always have water, tea, soda, or alcoh…er, liquid inspiration on hand, though.
What are some of your favorite books? Who are some of your favorite authors?
I've been a longtime fan of horror writers, mainly King, Koontz, and Lovecraft. My first love, though, will always be comedy, which is why my favorite authors are Terry Pratchett and Douglas Adams. I also have a man crush on Harry Dresden, so gotta give Jim Butcher credit too. And of course, J.K. Rowling, because Harry Potter is a fantastic series.
What do you like to do when you're not writing?
Making terrible puns! In addition, I'm a huge fan of sci-fi movies and TV shows. I love Doctor Who. I'm an avid gamer, so I'm never too far from a controller. I also have a day job that takes up more of my writing time than I'd prefer, but I'm sure I'm far from the only independent writer who feels that way!
- – -
Thanks for dropping by, C.J.! You can connect with C.J. on Facebook!
The book is Rise of the Aces.
It's available in eBook and Paperback editions at Amazon, or view the book trailer.
What if you woke up one day with a superpower?
What if thousands of others around the world did the same?
And what if they would stop at nothing to take your power for themselves?
For Lucas Decker, part of a group of people with strange abilities known as Aces, there is only one answer: hide. Hide your ability, stay under the radar, and hope nobody notices you. But when a deadly accident leaves him with the ability and memories of another Ace, he's caught up in a dangerous conspiracy that may expose the origin of their mysterious powers…if it doesn't kill him first. Now, with the help of Angela Cross, an agent for the enigmatic Veil Network, he must uncover the truth while trying to stay one step ahead of government agents, other Aces eager to kill him for his power, and a sinister, shadowy organization trying to silence him by any means necessary.
I had the pleasure of being a beta reader for the book and enjoyed it thoroughly. Check out my review here.
David ducked through the warehouse door and slammed it behind him. He was sweating despite the chilly temperature, his gasping breaths pluming out in the frigid air. He knew his pursuers couldn't be far behind him. I need to buy some time, he thought. Making sure the door was closed completely, he gripped the doorknob tightly. Seconds later, the metal knob began to glow red, and intense heat channeled through the steel and into the latch. In moments, the interior of the mechanism was molten metal; he released his hand and it quickly cooled, hardening into an immovable lump of fused steel. David took a second to catch his breath, but his respite was short-lived as he heard footsteps in the alley outside, followed by the rattling of someone futilely trying the ruined doorknob.
"He's jammed the door!" a male voice yelled from the other side. "Get Zakhar!"
Not wanting to find out who or what Zakhar was, David sprinted rapidly away from the door, running for the opposite side of the building, hoping he would find another exit. The interior of the warehouse was dim, full of metal shelves forming tight corridors, and the floor was cluttered; in his haste, his foot caught on something and he fell to the floor, his knees slamming painfully down on the concrete before he caught himself with his hands. He cried out in pain, but heard an impossibly loud banging noise from the direction of the door behind him. No time to be hurt right now! Got to move! He quickly scrambled back to his feet and resumed his panicked run across the building.
The booming sound from behind him repeated, this time accompanied by a horrible screeching. It took him a moment to recognize the sound of tortured metal–something was banging on the door hard enough to bend it. He didn't have long before they would be in the building. David reached the far wall, but he didn't see another side door. Frantically running along the wall toward the corner of the building, he hoped he might find a way out in the next wall, but his path was blocked by some heavy metal shelving, stacked high with boxes.
Just then, a loud shriek echoed across the cavernous space, followed by a resounding metallic clang. He couldn't see the door he had entered from, but he guessed that it had just been knocked out of its frame by whatever force had been pounding on it. Looking around for somewhere to run or hide, he saw a set of metal stairs leading up to some narrow walkways overhead. He dashed up the stairs, feet pounding on the steps. As he neared the top, he heard a few gunshots, and a bullet struck the railing near his foot. David turned in the direction of the sounds and saw a small group of people in gray combat gear gathered around the breached doorway. A few of them had rifles raised and aimed in his direction.
He held up his open palms and began making slinging motions, as if he were pitching baseballs at his assailants. Small, blindingly bright balls of red-hot flame leapt from his hands and flew across the open space. Some of the fireballs splashed to the floor, splattering small fires in multiple directions and igniting a few boots. At least one fireball struck a shooter square in the chest; the man's vest burst into flames and he dropped the rifle as he fell to the floor, rolling around and screaming as he tried to smother the fire.
David tossed a few more fireballs, scattering the group in multiple directions as the men ran to escape the flames. One man ran to the warped steel door lying on the floor. As David watched, the man picked up the thick door with one hand–as if it weighed nothing–and threw it at his head with unbelievable speed. He barely had time to duck under it. That almost took my head off! The attacker started toward a group of shelves; David decided he didn't need to stick around to guess what would happen next. He sprinted down the walkway, taking turns whenever he could, hearing more occasional gunshots and silently praying he wouldn't feel a bullet tearing through him.
What he felt instead was a tremendous shuddering in the floor beneath his feet as something heavy struck the walkway a few steps behind him. The tremors from the impact were so violent that he staggered and fell into a kneeling position, grimacing as his already-bruised knee struck the metal. He pulled himself back up with the railings and glanced behind him. A tangled mess of metal was hanging from one side of the walkway; after a moment, David realized he was looking at one of the shelves. It had apparently been thrown hard enough to deform the walkway at the point of impact. Good thing I wasn't planning on going back that way, he thought, staring at the warped jumble of steel bars.
Seeing that the shooters were regrouping, he tossed a few more fireballs at them. His accuracy suffered at this distance, but his attack scattered them, and every second they weren't shooting at him increased his chance of escape. He turned and ran to the next corner, but as he rounded it, the platform started shaking again. This time, though, it wasn't a sudden hit but a gradually increasing motion as if an earthquake was happening…although the rest of the building seemed stable. Confused, David looked for the source of the trouble and saw the man who had thrown the door standing beneath a pair of supports for the catwalk. He was gripping them in his hands and moving his arms rapidly; the steel was vibrating with every movement. The platform was shaking so badly that David found it difficult to keep up the pace without stumbling, and he finally had to slow to a walk due to his unsteady footing.
Then he saw it–a door below him in a nearby wall. Desperate to escape his situation, he moved as fast as he dared along the metal catwalk. He reached a point directly above a clearing in the shelves just inside the door, but he didn't see any stairs leading down in this part of the warehouse. A few more bullets struck nearby, and he felt a searing pain as one grazed his arm. Out of time! Without giving it a second thought, David threw his leg over the steel railing, pulled the other one up after him, and dropped to the floor below. He landed hard, knocking the breath from his lungs, and making his bruised legs throb in protest. Trying to ignore the shooting pain in his side, he rose quickly and ran for the door.
As he reached for the handle, it turned on its own and the door suddenly swung open, hitting him in the face and sending him sprawling to the floor again. His head impacted the concrete, and he saw stars. Stunned, he looked up through blurry eyes to see a tall, thin, blond man in the doorway. The young man stepped through the doorway and stood over David, looking down with a smile devoid of any humor. David started to push himself up off the floor.
"Oh, don't get up on my account," said the newcomer in a crisp voice with a faint accent David couldn't place. He gestured with one hand to a set of shelves, which tilted and fell over onto David's legs and stomach, painfully crushing him against the cold floor of the warehouse as their contents rained down around him. He gasped out a labored breath as the man crouched down next to him.
"Got him," he called to the gunmen. Turning to David, he smiled, though the expression didn't reach his cold blue eyes. "Well. You put up a good fight. And to think, you almost got away with it." He shook his head sadly, still wearing that chilly smile.
"What do you…want from me?" David gasped, having trouble breathing beneath the weight of the shelves.
"Come on, David. You already know the answer to that, don't you?" he said, leaning in closer. He braced himself against the fallen rack, putting additional pressure on David's pinned body. His voice lowered to nearly a whisper as he said, " I want you to die and pass your power on to me." He spoke up as he continued. "The ability to control fire is quite useful. As I'm sure you already know, and as you just proved against my men." He gestured in the direction of the far side of the building. "I think you might have killed Jacobson. And even if you didn't, he won't be useful in combat for a long time."
"Please…" David gasped, barely able to speak. "Don't…kill…me…"
The blond man clicked his tongue disapprovingly and shook his head again in mock sadness. "Now, now, David. It's not that I want to kill you. It's nothing personal. You understand that I'm only doing this because I need to, right?" He took his hand off the shelves, relieving the worst of the pressure on David, although not enough for him to extricate himself from it. He watched as the man peeled off one of his gloves and held his bare hand flat, as if he was about to karate chop something.
"Relax. I'll make this quick," he said, his icy eyes fixed on David's. He laid the flat of his hand against the fallen man's throat and drew it across in a quick motion like a knife slicing. David was shocked to feel the bare hand open his throat just as a blade would have done. He gurgled a pitiful last few breaths, his final sight on earth that of the blond man pulling a handkerchief from his pocket and wiping David's blood off the bottom edge of his finger.

Denmark stands firm to supports interventions in Syria outside the UN
Thursday, 29 August 2013
A majority of Danish political parties supports an action in Syria even without the support of the UN.
An hour-long meeting of the Danish Foreign Policy Committee, held to discuss effort on Syria, today taken place today and after the meeting there were signs of continued support to any type action in Syria among a majority of the parties in the Danish parliament.
The support is so far only moral and political - there is no decision yet whether Denmark is ready to support in a military action. Should Denmark at a later date decide to participate militarily, Parliament must vote on it.
Some side reactions however are concerns that Denmark could intervene in Syria without knowing whether it'll have any positive impact positively on the civilian population.
This comes after the British government was defeated in parliament today after a very long day debate about the British military involvement in Syria.

Fire damages occur due to natural causes like lightening or due to fault in electrical wiring or by human fault. There could be any reason behind a fire outbreak in the property. But whatever maybe the reason, fire causes a lot of damage, either small or big. To extinguish the fire, water is used, which causes more damage. After fire, soot and smoke is produced that blackens the walls and the household belongings. Everything will have a bad odor of smoke. Fire damages more than other disasters. Most of the objects have to be discarded after fire touches and burns them.
Most of the buildings use wooden material in their construction, which catches fire easily. The flooring, stairs, windows, doors and roofs are made of wood; in case of burning, these have to be completely removed. The Michigan Restoration Co will help you by inspecting the burnt area and give you complete analysis of the damage.
The property and household things like carpets, rugs, upholstery, dry wall, damaged by soot and smoke require professional restoration. They are cleaned by experts by using special technologies to extract soot and smoke. Use of water and drying procedure to extinguish fire causes more damage. So, a lot of care is required to prevent further damage.
Michigan Restoration Co is a reputed and reliable institution. They have a good and solid background and their staff is experienced in their field. Their efficient workers are equipped with new technologies and tools to tackle every type of fire disaster, either small or large. Their staff will update you continuously about the progress of work, for your satisfaction and peace of mind.
After cleaning up the damaged area, the staff starts working on water or chemical extraction. They also start working on the repair and reconstruction. Due to fire, the utilities like electrical wires, plastic water pipes are also damaged, due to which the electric supply is cut off. It is important to deal with these issues first or damaged electrical wires can cause death by electrical shock.
It is not possible to breathe in an atmosphere full of smoke odor. It is injurious to children and people having respiratory issues, because chemical extinguisher or smoke, consisting of chemical fumes, are in the air and are bad for the lungs. So, they use cleaners and sanitizers to get rid of smoke odor from things and surfaces in the house.

Community with a Mission
The great city of Nineveh heard the warning from the Lord as Jonah preached. God gave Jonah a message for the people of that city, because it had come to His attention that the people there were living wicked. Jonah told them that in forty days the city would be overthrown. The people of Nineveh believed God's word. Everyone put on sackcloth and fasted, including the king and the nobles. The king and the nobles, even, issued a decree saying, let no human being or animal, no herd or flock, shall taste anything, feed nor water. They all did this with the hope that God would change His mind and would not cause them to perish. Jonah carried the message, (see Jonah 3:1-9) but he initially was not a willing messenger. Read Jonah 1 for his initial reaction, then read Jonah 4 to see how he responded after God's response. Did God have compassion for the people of Nineveh? Do you think God will have compassion for a city that is living wicked today? What do you the think the people of a city would have to do for God to save them? God's concern is that we will be saved, sometimes He threatens us to accomplish His goal.

How Smart Toys Help Kids Prepare for High-tech Future
Do you remember what kinds of toys you had when you were a kid? Most of us definitely had a bat, a ball, few dolls/teddies, cars, and that is the first few things that come to our minds. While a lucky, few might have had a remote control car and some battery operated toys. That was it period.
However, the scene with kids these days is much different now. We will be surprised at the wide range of toy selection that kids have today. You do not have to go to a hi-fi toy store but just walk into a flea market and you will find many technology-driven toys that are mostly battery operated. Moreover, today we have access to a number of toys appropriate for different age groups at different price ranges. You simply have to browse online, for instance, Whooopsadaisy can guide you to toys that are suitable for your child. You will find a lot of high-tech toys, gadgets, and apps.
Nevertheless, why do you think that you should buy these for your kids? Let us take a quick look at how high-tech toys help kids for the high-tech future.
- It helps kids to develop a new liking towards school subjects like science, maths, and technology.
- It helps kids to learn actively as against passive learning, where they are in a better position to learn and understand better.
- It also engages the kids to be more involved in a task that they are working.
- It also stimulates an interest in advanced education and machine learning such as mechanics, computer programming, coding, robotics, and artificial intelligence.
- It provides opportunities for a practical learning experience and more exposure to what they see, learns, and understand outside the boundaries of their school.
- It also promotes a child's problem solving and analytical skills.

Much of what's out there for fall looks like it could have been ripped from the pages of Cowboys and Indians magazine: arrow print maxi-skirts, blanket-stripe ponchos, suede jackets with swinging fringe, cowboy booties and T-shirts with more Navajo patterns than Ralph Lauren's RRL ranch.
Shopbop.com calls the trend "neo-native," Les Nouvelles refers to it as "nouveau Navajo," and at H&M it's "bohemian style."
It brings me back to the 1990s and my first apartment in West Hollywood, with its Kokopelli lamp and IKEA Ektorp sofa in Santa Fe stripe.
The trend's newest iteration first appeared on the fall runways in New York in February, when Proenza Schouler's Jack McCollough and Lazaro Hernandez showed gorgeous burn-out velvet dresses, macrame skirts, chunky Peruvian sweaters, zigzag-patterned T-shirts, blanket-striped pants and clutches in vivid shades of turquoise, orange, green and pink — all inspired by a trip to Santa Fe, N.M.
"I was wowed," said Bloomingdale's fashion director Stephanie Solomon. "It was a fresh approach to color and print."
Isabel Marant also went native with her fall collection, showing patchwork jeans, blanket coats and feather-print sweat shirts better suited to a dusty Route 66 highway than a Paris runway. Diane von Furstenberg looked West to the pioneering spirit of 1940s socialite turned Taos, N.M., arts patron Millicent Rogers for inspiration for gaucho pants, graphic diamond-patterned wrap tops and dresses, and tall fringed suede boots.

A blog about daily life for a frugal 30 something paying off my debt and re-evaluating my life.

What Would You Have Done?
I have been debating whether to tell you this or not for a few days.
On Saturday, I was at my local Iceland buying their Sweet Chilli Chicken Pizzas (£1.50 each and just delicious!).
Being naturally talkative, I started chatting with the woman in front of me in the queue. Elderly, with a lovely smile.
After exchanging a couple of mundane sentances. She said to me
"Would you mind wishing me, Happy Birthday? As I am 80 today and no-one has said Happy Birthday to me"
Doesn't it just break your heart?
I of course wished her Happy Birthday as did the Cashier and everyone else at the Checkout. It turns out her husband died earlier this year and there was no-one around. I suspect she was lonely.
I waited a couple of minutes and asked her if she would like to come for a cup of tea with me to a local cafe. I was going to get her a piece of cake and generally make a fuss of her.
I think she got embarrassed, and said "No, I am ok thank you" and scurried off.
I feel so sad when I think of this lady.
Loneliness must be debilitating.
Sigh.... Christmas must be unbearable for so many people.
Rather forlornly

That is so sad Abigail I want to cry! I think I would have ran around the street until I found the old dear. God bless her. Breaks your heartReplyDelete
It really makes you sit up and think doesn't it. I've just invited an elderly relative for Christmas who was sadly bereaved on Tuesday. Our noisy hectic house will be nothing like she's used to, but simply couldn't see someone on their own at Christmas. My thoughts are with your birthday lady. What a shame she doesn't know that she's in so many people's minds right now.ReplyDelete

Last year we had a little job delivering flowers on 23rd and 24th December. It broke my heart to see so many old people who were going to be alone at Christmas.ReplyDelete
That is a very heartbreaking story. I try to help any elderly person I see because I hope that someone is doing the same for my parents who live far away.ReplyDelete

Job 4:1-6 ESV
Then Eliphaz the Temanite answered and said:
"If one ventures a word with you, will you be impatient?
Yet who can keep from speaking?
Behold, you have instructed many,
and you have strengthened the weak hands.
Your words have upheld him who was stumbling,
and you have made firm the feeble knees.
But now it has come to you, and you are impatient;
it touches you, and you are dismayed.
Is not your fear of God your confidence,
and the integrity of your ways your hope?
It's easy to deal with evil and suffering when we aren't dealing with such issues personally. Eliphaz points this out to Job, but I wonder how Eliphaz would react if he had lost everything, was laying sick in an ash heap?

Newcastle have some top professionals at Newcastle, who are at the club because they want to be.
Steve Harper – consummate professional at Newcastle
Steve Harper had a great relationship with Shay Given, his former team-mate, and it seems he has forged great relationships with his two young competitors for the Newcastle jersey – Tim Krul and Fraser Forster.
And he knows full well that both goalkeepers are getting better all the time and getting closer to himself, and indeed one of them could take over from Steve, even before he hangs up his gloves in say a couple of years time.
Harper is still number one right now, and this is what the Easington-born player had to say about the goalkeeper situation today:
"We're virtually safe now and I had a chat with the manager last week. Tim Krul has done well in the last couple of games so the manager hinted he would like to take a look at Tim for the last few games,"
"I have no problems with that. He has deserved it. The manager already knows what I can do so it's a good opportunity for Tim from now until the end of the season."
"I'm sure Tim will have learned a lot from the spell he had earlier in the season and hopefully we'll see the benefits of it in these last few games."
Tim Krul will likely play the last four games for Newcastle, and there are few fans who will be against that, after the excellent displays the Dutchman has given in the last couple of games, against Man United and Blackpool.
In fact Steve has been a great role model for both Newcastle's young goalkeepers, and we have to think that Steve would be a great goalkeeping coach, or just a general coach in the future, for Newcastle.
Steve Harper has earned a social sciences degree on-line, and he's also a fully qualified FA approved referee, so whether he plans to take up refereeing after he retires from playing, is a good question.
Steve talked about the young pretenders:.
"They are snapping at my heels and getting closer all the time," "I know being number one won't last forever. It's up to me to retain that position."
"Every pre-season when I have come back the manager has brought us in as goalkeepers and said 'We start the season with a clean slate'." "I'm sure it will the same this season."
"Fraser has really benefited from what he did at Norwich last season and is doing very well up at Celtic as well," Tim, as I said, earlier in the season was a fantastic learning curve for him. He's done very well over the last two games."
"It is a big one for the manager but those are the decisions he's paid to make."
When you have a local lad, and a consummate professional like Steve Harper at Newcastle, we cannot go too far wrong – at least not in the goalkeeping department.
Comments welcome.

Fair play to Harper he had to wait a very long time to claim the number one spot and yet he is still happy for the youngsters below him to try and take it of him. This is a man looking out for Newcastle United and not himself. Harper deserves alot of respect for his loyalty to this club and for what he has done for us.
"We're virtually safe now and I had a chat with the manager last week. Tim Krul has done well in the last couple of games so the manager hinted he would like to take a look at Tim for the last few games,"
And whenever someone had that conversation with Shay Given about Harps, Given sulked. Harps is a class act.
Someone I know asked Harper why he had showed so much loyalty to the club, and he said that what other job would I have become a wealthy man warming a bench. It just shows the class of the bloke that he's happy with what hand he's been dealt, maybe it's a lesson for some of the younger players to learn. I would say to these players the fan's of Newcastle united football club have made you millionaires. gratitude or greed take your pick.
Tim, if you read this, go to w w w.lumosity.c o m to play the brain game. I have tried it for a few days, and it has absolutely improved my reaction.
Hope you see this and go there. Just play the free game first.
From a Toon fan who sincerely hoping Tim Krul to be the number One keeper for Newcastle United next season.

Comprehensive Training in Self Care for Healthy Living.
Spiritualise your yoga. Build the foundations to teach what you love,
change your life and the lives of others.
Yoga is the ultimate science of human transformation. Health Institute Australasia's Yoga Teacher Training program is the culmination of five decades of Shanti Gowans' experience in teaching yoga to monastic and lay students, and training yoga teachers. It provides a comprehensive, fully integrated curriculum, in three parts, that far surpasses the standards set by the industry, and produces exceptional teachers who are recognised as gurus in their field of influence. You too can reap the rewards of this education in your personal life, with your work, for economic benefit, and in local and international arenas.
The trendiness of popular yoga will have us believe that Yoga is just a vehicle for exercise. However, Yoga is so much more. Yoga is an ancient science that will radically transform your life and thought processes to readily manifest health, abundance and happiness into your life. It is a powerful, holistic practice and an ideal way of self-cultivation that leads to physical and mental health and healing, spiritual and moral development, ethical behaviour and ultimately better society.
Shanti Yoga has evolved from a traditional lineage of authentic, classical yoga through the mind of a deeply experienced Yogi with forty-five years of experience of teaching in the West.
It integrates and incorporates the knowledge, philosophies and practices of traditional yoga, Patanjali's Yoga Sutras with contemporary developments in yoga that are universal and of direct relevance to the current stage of evolution in our western society.
Shanti Yoga teacher training is based on personal growth, helping others, shedding the ego and turning negativity into positive thinking and actions, to awaken the world. When you study to be a Yoga Teacher at Health Institute Australia, your course will involve much more than just downward dog, handstands or sun salutations, and also much more than just textbook learning. You will be taught the history of Yoga, along with its philosophy, and psychology and learn a wide range of practices and skills to gain the ideal preparation for your future.
All your course materials are provided, and you will have the bonus of experiencing yoga life at spiritual retreats. There is no enticement to spend money on additional requirements in the form of packages, workshops, seminars, and so on, for deepening your knowledge and practice.
Competition is not factored in, nor encouraged. The energy at Health Institute Australia is uplifting and infectious. Over the years, we have seen thousands of lives touched, changed, transformed and saved by the revolutionary, creative experimenting that has had people falling in love with their yoga again, or for the first time, whilst never stop their exploring.
Our flagship training curriculum is an exhilarating 10-part experience that harmonises twenty-first century science and ancient wisdom in one eye-opening path to self-empowerment. See yourself blossom into your best self. Balance your mind, body and spirit. It's combined personal and professional development as you learn the practical applications of the healing art of yoga and its principles in all realms of life in the foundational year:
- Self mastery
- Yoga and Ayurvedic health and principles for self-care
- Yoga history, literature, and philosophy
- Yoga postures from head to toe, asana
- Yoga breathing, pranayama
- Yoga relaxation, nidra
- Yoga concentration, motivation, memory retention, dharana

BOXING CLEVER Ray Moylette is pictured at work in the gym. Pic: John Moylette
Ger Flanagan
ISLANDEADY'S 'Sugar Ray' Moylette heightened his professional boxing record to 7-0 in Boston over the weekend with a second round stoppage of former world title contender, Michael Clarke.
The former World Youth Gold medalist stopped the American veteran, who has 63 professional bouts to his name, in convincing fashion in front of a bumper crowd in the House of Blues, Boston on Saturday night.
It was Moylette's second bout of his three week trip to Boston, having defeated two-time Michigan State Golden Gloves champion Donte Bryant two weeks previous in Foxwood Resort Casino, Connecticut.
'Sugar Ray' was floored for the first time in his career by the dangerous Byrant in the second round, but pulled himself off the canvas and recovered well to take the fight on a split decision.
Speaking to The Mayo News yesterday (Monday) having just arrived home from Boston, Moylette reflected on another successful trip.
"The first fight was the hardest of the two of them, against a dangerous opponent with a good amateur background," he said. "It was the first time in my career that I got dropped so I had to come back after.
"It was a shock to myself because as soon as I hit the ground I bounced back up again… I didn't really know what to do and I just panicked… For experience I don't ever want it to happen again, but if it does, I'll be better prepared.
"Against [Michael] Clarke, I was very relaxed and I felt at home in there. He was never going to pose a threat to me… I am at that level where journeymen are no good to me anymore… I wanted a harder fight personally, but from now on, they will be kicked-up a notch."
The 27 year-old knocked out Clarke as part of a show for American TV Sports Channel ESPN and was being promoted by Oscar De La Hoya's Golden Boy promotions and Murphy's Boxing.
Although he admitted that 'he would fight every week' given the opportunity, realistically he would 'hope to have another two fights by the end of the year', with a possible world title challenge in 2018.
Also a keen gaelic football fan, Moylette expressed his delight that his native Islandeady qualified for the quarter-final of the Mayo Intermediate Championship, and is looking forward to attending their clash against Burrishoole next weekend.

Do We Love Jesus Or Our Sin
My Pastor Kent McBay has more than once raised this issue: Do we love Jesus more than we love our sin? If we love Jesus more than our sin we will not commit the sin. If we love the sin more than we love Him we will commit the sin.
Colossians 3:2: Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth.
1 John 2:15: Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him.
The word love appears three times in the above passage. The first two times the word is agapao. The third time the word is agape. The two different words have two different definitions. Agapao is to love in a social or moral sense. Agape is affection or benevolence; specially (plural) a love-feast: (a feast of) charity(-ably), dear. Agape is a stronger more complete love. It is the love of God. It is everlasting love. Blessedly our love for the world does not need to be permanent. It is produced by our flesh. God is not the source of this kind of love. It is a poor and insufficient substitute for the love of God. He wants to replace it with a more enduring and stronger love, the love of God, which is the fruit of the Spirit.
Galatians 5:22a: But the fruit of the Spirit is love, (agape) . . .
Romans 5:5: And hope maketh not ashamed; because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us.
Those without Christ and the Holy Spirit living in their hearts have no choice in the matter. They cannot love with the love of God. Those with Christ in their hearts do have a choice. They can love with the inferior love of their flesh or they can love with the superior love of God.
Hating evil comes with the love of God. This hate has been compared with a loving parent hating a rabid dog that would threaten their child. Sin harms us, God hates it and we should too.
Psalms 97:10a: Ye that love the LORD, hate evil: . . .
Proverbs 8:13: The fear of the LORD is to hate evil: pride, and arrogancy, and the evil way, and the froward mouth, do I hate.
1 John 2:5: But whoso keepeth his word, in him verily is the love of God perfected: hereby know we that we are in him. 4:7 Beloved, let us love one another: for love is of God; and every one that loveth is born of God, and knoweth God. 8 He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love. 10 Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that he loved us, and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins. 12 No man hath seen God at any time. If we love one another, God dwelleth in us, and his love is perfected in us. Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him. 16 And we have known and believed the love that God hath to us. God is love; and he that dwelleth in love dwelleth in God, and God in him. 19 We love him, because he first loved us. 20 If a man say, I love God, and hateth his brother, he is a liar: for he that loveth not his brother whom he hath seen, how can he love God whom he hath not seen? 5:1 Whosoever believeth that Jesus is the Christ is born of God: and every one that loveth him that begat loveth him also that is begotten of him. 2 By this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God, and keep his commandments. 3 For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments: and his commandments are not grievous.
Matthew 6:24: No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon.
James 4:4b: . . . know ye not that the friendship of the world is enmity with God? whosoever therefore will be a friend of the world is the enemy of God.

I was driving myself crazy trying to figure out where this newest option was so that I could add "reactions" to my blog posts! I thought that the most likely place to find this newest option for Blogger.com blogs would be in the layout section under "add a gadget" - but it turns out that this isn't where it is - sort of..........
Once you go to the Layout portion of your blog, then you have to click on the link to open up your blog post option and that is where you will see the "reactions" options that you can add to your blog.
By the way, I can't add the "reactions" option to this blog because this blog uses the template and not the layout version of a blog template.
But I will add it to my Adsense Consultant Blog.

Joe Bonamassa started playing guitar before he started school, becoming, over the last decade or so arguably the reigning blues-rock six-string king.
But he says it's unlikely that a kid today will follow in his footsteps, as he did in B.B. King's. In the digital age, the electric guitar is an endangered species.
"I've been playing guitar professionally, I've been playing 29 years," Bonamassa said. "It took me seven, eight years to get good enough to play on stage. Kids today can get an iPad and a pair of headphones and be DJing in two weeks."
A prodigy on guitar who was tutored by guitar legend Danny Gatton, Bonamassa began playing professionally at 11, pulled on stage by B.B. King, whom he calls his mentor.

"How could he not be?" Bonamassa said. "He gave me a stage. He gave me an album. He gave me his friendship. He gave me a guitar. I knew him for 23 years. My desert island record was and still is (King's) 'Live at the Regal.' To me, it's the epitome of a blues album."
What Bonamassa didn't take from King was his guitar style and musical approach
"You're not going to sound like B.B.," Bonamassa said. "You're not going to top 'Live at the Regal'. You're going for the spirit of it. I can cover B.B. King, 'Live at the Regal' in its entirety, but I can't sound like B.B."
Instead, the young "'Smokin' Joe Bonamassa," spun the influence of British blues-rock guitar heroes of the '60s – Eric Clapton, Jimmy Page of Led Zeppelin and Rory Gallagher – into his sound along with some Stevie Ray Vaughan.
Bonamassa released "A New Day Yesterday," the first of his 12 studio solo albums, in 2000. His most recent studio effort is 2016's "Blues of Desperation," which hit No. 12 on the Billboard albums chart. He's also released three collaborative albums and 15 live records, including this year's "Live at Carnegie Hall: An Acoustic Evening." A total of 17 Bonamassa albums have topped the "Billboard" magazine blues chart.
What Bonamassa did take from King is his big band, full of fine players and a classy stage presentation.
The band includes: keyboardist Reese Wynans of Stevie Ray Vaughan and Double Trouble fame; drummer Anton Fig, the house drummer for "Late Night with David Letterman"; bassist Michael Rhodes, who has played with the likes of Johnny Cash and Taylor Swift; trumpeter Lee Thornburg, a former member of Tower of Power; and saxophonist Paulie Cerra, who has toured with Stevie Wonder and Bobby "Blue" Bland.
Add in a trio of female backup singers from Australia and a set that looks like a classic theater stage, complete with big band-style podiums in front of the players, and you've got the making for the shows that have earned Bonamassa Entertainer of the Year recognition from the Blues Music Awards.
The musical selections for each show vary depending on where the concert takes place.
"I have probably 350 songs to choose from," Bonamassa said. "If we're playing outside, so it's a bit more of a rock show. The outside gigs, you need to hit it a little harder. Inside you have the intimacy and acoustics of the hall and more lighting. You use the room and it doesn't have to hit as hard."
That said, Bonamassa insisted there is no guarantee that he and/or the band will have a good show on any given night – even though the audience might not notice.
"It's all subject to interpretation," he said. "It's all subject to how you're feeling. If I didn't tell you I was feeling like crap, you wouldn't know I was feeling like crap. For the fans, they want to have a good time for the two hours that they get to see it."
So what happens if Bonamassa doesn't connect with the audience immediately after coming on stage?
"I have about four, five security guys go rough 'em up," he said with a laugh. "They start dancing in a hurry. I usually find an old lady or a little kid and send security after them. That gets everybody going."
Now 40, Bonamassa looks back at his 36 years with a guitar in his hands with satisfaction – and appreciation for the fans who buy his records and who he tries to entertain each time he steps on stage.
"I feel like I've accomplished a few things," he said. "We've sold millions of albums. We've played thousands of shows. I'm very grateful for where the fans have put me and it is the fans that have put me there."

Catch of the day now a staple of White Sox diet

CHICAGO -- Want a little fix that can make your team a lot better?
Then don't add a corner outfielder. Take your center fielder and move him to a corner-outfield spot, importing a defensive upgrade to take over in center.View Full Game Coverage
It's what the Giants are doing this year, with Angel Pagan moving to left field to accommodate Denard Span. The White Sox made that move as well, and early returns show they're a better team with Austin Jackson in center and Adam Eaton moving to right. Avisail Garcia, challenged defensively, is freed up to serve as the primary designated hitter.
The White Sox are playing better defensively, and that's a good thing. They haven't seen the offensive improvement they projected, yet they're off to a promising start. They're scored four runs or fewer in 10 of their first 13 games, but they were 5-5 in those games.
"We're playing a lot better,'' Eaton said. "You can tell it every night. Having Austin Jackson in center is nice. I take all my cues off him. It's the same way for us with Jimmy [Rollins] in the infield. He's a guy who has been there and done that, won the World Series and a lot of awards. It's nice to have him and all the newcomers.''
Video: CWS@MIN: Eaton robs Plouffe of hit with sliding catch
Daniel Murphy tempted the White Sox last offseason. So did a lot of other available hitters, and it was no wonder why.
They knew they had to fix the lineup that was the least productive in the American League. But for general manager Rick Hahn, it wasn't as simple as importing the best hitters he could find.
Scoring more runs was only one thing that the White Sox needed to do. They also needed to catch the ball better, as they ranked 28th in the Majors in defensive efficiency last season. Improved fielding would make the runs they scored matter more often.
Video: CWS@TB: Rollins makes a tough falling catch
Early returns say Hahn has significantly improved the White Sox defense. With Todd Frazier at third base, Rollins at shortstop and Brett Lawrie at second base, the Sox went into games on Tuesday night ranked sixth in the Major Leagues in defensive efficiency, according to the Baseball Prospectus rankings.
Hahn eliminated Murphy from consideration because of his shortcomings in the field for the Mets. He wanted two-way players who can hit and field their position, and he's convinced he has them in place.
With the exception of the trade for Frazier, none of the moves captured headlines. It is fitting then that Frazier is the player who has been showing up in the defensive highlights.
Video: CLE@CWS: Frazier takes a hit away from Uribe
But a look at the defensive runs saved of individual players shows that it's the outfield shift that is playing the biggest role in the team's play in the field.
Eaton, who was playing through a shoulder injury that required surgery after the season, generated a -14.0 DRS figure on FanGraphs last season, ranking 21st among 23 center-field qualifiers. Garcia was 16th out of 18 in right field at -11.
Video: CWS@MIN: Cabrera stumbles, makes warning track catch
This season, Eaton has generated a +6 DRS figure in the first two weeks of the season, leading right fielders. That has offset Jackson's -4, which the Sox expect to improve as he gets comfortable at U.S. Cellular Field.
Manager Robin Ventura believes Eaton is playing right field like a natural.
"I think he's better over there,'' Ventura said. "It seems like he gets better jumps on balls. He seems more comfortable. He's been great over there. That helps. Having Austin in center and Adam in right is a nice little combination. Adam has handled it well.''
Eaton says he's moved around in the outfield his entire life, the result of being left-handed and too short to play first base. He had played the outfield corners as much as center in the Minors with the D-backs, but he was put in center when he hit his way to the big leagues in 2012.
Eaton spent much of Spring Training as a designated hitter, allowing his left shoulder to heal. It has been strong in the early going. Both Eaton and White Sox left fielders rank in the top 10 among AL outfielders in the FanGraphs' metric rating outfield arms (which is led by the Indians' Rajai Davis).
Melky Cabrera, who has lost some weight since last season, is playing a strong left field. He's first in the AL in UZR/150 (41.4) and third with +2 DRS.
This is not the first time that the White Sox have improved under Ventura using this formula.
When Ventura replaced Ozzie Guillen in 2012, the Sox jumped from 29th to 11th in defensive efficiency. He and his then-bench coach, Mark Parent, increased the amount of infield practice and paid attention to details like defensive positioning. But they did something else, too.
They moved Alex Rios, the primary center fielder the previous season, to right field and played Alejandro De Aza in center. They also replaced a worn-out Juan Pierre with 23-year-old Dayan Viciedo in left field.
Guess what happened? Rios, who had generated -9 DRS as a center fielder in '11, was +7 in right field. De Aza and Viciedo were upgrades, if not Gold Glovers.
Ultimately, none of this was enough to make up for the lack of homegrown hitters.
But that team led the AL Central by three games on Sept. 18. Ventura would love to get a second chance to let Chris Sale and Jose Quintana write a different ending.
Fixing the defense is a nice step toward getting there.

8 things we learned about Lee Child
Lee Child joined us for a webchat to talk about the 21st installment of his Jack Reacher thriller series, Night School. From the author's coffee consumption to his…ahem…relaxation techniques, this is what we learned
His readers span generations
"The youngest reader I ever met was a nine-year-old boy and the oldest was a 101-year-old woman from Scotland, and with that span I just have to write for myself and I'm completely thrilled if anyone else likes what I'm doing!"
He loves his coffee
"I work maybe six hours a day, maybe four days a week during the writing season. When I take a break I drink black coffee – in huge quantities! My record is 36 mugs in a day, and if I have a biscuit I call it a cookie, and it's always an oatmeal raisin."
Editors can't mess with him
"I tell my current editor she can make three points and I will attend to one so she better choose carefully. My previous editor changed a word in the first line of Die Trying from 'Nathan Ruben died because he got brave' to 'Nathan Ruben died because he became brave', so I killed that editor and that's why I have a new one."
He hates planning
"I make each book up as I go along – so I'm happy if I have ideas for the current one. Next year's book can look after itself."
He'd be a cheap date
"I stay in all those cheap motels around Middle America and eat in those cheap diners because that is what I like. Give me a choice of pancakes and bacon or some fancy French meal, I'll take the pancakes and bacon."
Jack Reacher has trouble in love
"Certainly he enjoys his solitude but he's worried about ending up lonely. The problem is, the kind of intelligent woman he falls for is too intelligent to see a future with him. It's fun for a few days but the rest of their lives together would be awful. So he's perpetually on a kind of hunt for the right woman!"
He wouldn't write about other characters
"It's a bit like saying 'Do you ever wish you had a different kid?' You probably do, but you're stuck with the one you've got."
His writing prep is somewhat...relaxed
"I have no plan, no outline, and no synopsis. I like to be alone and undisturbed. And preferably, high."
Lee Child's latest book, No Middle Name, is a collection of short stories about the one and only Jack Reacher – and it's out now in hardback. Buy it now on Amazon for £9.99.

Pioneer clearly seek to own DJing – and they've now got a pretty solid play for every piece of that landscape. The latest piece: a direct drive turntable with USB connection, ready to play, scratch, or work with control vinyl (and Pioneer's increasingly ubiquitous Rekordbox software). Price: US$350 – affordable enough to appeal to even casual DJs as a set of two.
Vinyl is fast looking less like specialist equipment or niche fad, and more like the last man standing in music sales and an essential part of DJing. So it fits that, even in the home, a turntable is suited both for DJing and playback. And that's what the PLX-500 promises: it's advertised as ready to scratch (thanks to direct drive operation) and is even compatible for cueing or scratching digital via Rekordbox and optional control vinyl.
This is the second turntable from Pioneer. So, that positions the PLX-500 as the "home" model, with the PLX-1000 street at about twice as much. That mirrors the way Pioneer has differentiated its digital players, with the XDJ series a the "home" model and the CDJ nexus for "pros."
How do you decide which to buy? Well, the 500 is a plug-and-play solution for home users. So you've got built in preamps (so line in and line out are built in), built-in USB interface (mainly with an eye toward letting you digitize your vinyl collection), and a lower cost.
The "pro"-focused 1000 assumes that you'll want to use your own turntable amp and interface – so that's not so much diminished value as it is a nod to more serious users. You can detach input and output more easily on the 1000, essential for use in the booth and studio and whatnot.


text: Blog 2018 March What Is the Family & Medical Leave Act? Previous Post | Next Post What Is the Family & Medical Leave Act? Posted By Marder Employment Law || 5-Mar-2018 The Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) is a federal law that allows certain employees to have up to 12 workweeks of unpaid leave each year, without the threat of job loss. The act also directs employers covered under the law to maintain health benefits for eligible workers as though they were working. Who Does FMLA Apply to? Employers that reach the minimum requirements under the law have to comply FMLA guidelines. Public agencies must adhere to FMLA regulations, this includes State, Federal, local employers, and schools. FMLA applies to private employers who have 50 or more employees working at least 20 workweeks during the year. Am I Eligible for FMLA? Again, only certain employers are covered under the Family and Medical Leave Act. You will need to work for an eligible employer for at least 12 months, and have logged at least 1,250 hours to benefit from FMLA. Your job also has to be at a location, or within 75 miles of a location, where at least 50 employees work. Situations Covered Under FMLA An employee is unable to work due to a serious medical condition An employee has to provide care for an immediate family member with a serious medical condition The birth of an employee's child Having to place or care for an adopted or foster care child An employee's spouse, child, or parent is on active duty or has been called to active duty for the National Guard or Reserve in support of a military operation However there are stipulations to what is covered under FMLA. For example, if your wife's father becomes severely ill, you can't use FMLA to take time off work. Instead, your wife would need to take a leave from work under applicable FMLA guidelines. Additionally, FMLA only covers care for children over the age of 18 if they are incapable of self-care due to a serious disability. Will I Still Be Paid During My FMLA Leave? There is no guarantee for paid leave under the Family and Medical Leave Act. Instead, employees can choose to use the paid time that they have accrued. Employers can also elect to have the employee use paid leave, as long as they have provided the employee with sufficient notification. In addition these stipulations, an employer can cut your leave short if you fail to provide medical proof of the condition or event that you are taking leave for. However, if you have given your employer the proper documentation, they cannot end your leave early. Do you have more questions about whether or not you are covered by the Family and Medical Leave Act? Contact our Hollister employment law attorney today to discuss your case further.

After reading the first two short stories in the Elric collection, I was ready to write the whole thing off as sloppy and unpleasant. The Dreaming City and While the Gods Laugh had nearly turned me away from Elric completely. However, upon reaching the Stealer of Souls my opinion has been completely reversed. The laxity in description I found the first two stories suffering from, I find nowhere in evidence here. Elric is finally the Elric I have been told of since I was young—a decadent, corrupt sorcerer who cannot determine if he is in control of himself or if Stormbringer is. It no longer seems so off-the-cuff, and I would therefore say that the character (and stories) have reached their stride.
I don't know how everyone else feels about Elric, but I can honestly say that for nearly a year I was ready to consign him to the fire. I'm glad I didn't.

What we need decoding dvd and what is it?
Hey Guys
One of my friend was asking for softwares for decoding dvd?
Any of you know, what is "decoding dvd" and why we need it?
Hey Guys
One of my friend was asking for softwares for decoding dvd?
Any of you know, what is "decoding dvd" and why we need it?
If you are going to understand the word decode, that means is to transform from one format into another. So your friend is looking for decoder to change the format of files like video. Need to change the file format of a video for some reason like for example, if you want to transfer video from computer to your ipod or apple device, you need to change video format to MOV because apple device accepts that format, if the video file is not in MOV format, you cannot play it to that device, so that's the purpose of DVD decoder, there are many features of DVD decoder like to edit video. Check this out for more info. http://www.burnworld.com/software/wondershare/dvd-ripper-platinum.htm
If you're new to this stuff, decoding a DVD means decrypting the entire DVD disc. When you need to decrypt something it only means that it is encrypted. Though normally in files that are encrypted, it will not allow you to open it and it needs to be decrypted first before it can be accessed and this usually requires password for the decryption.
In a DVD, being encrypted doesn't mean that it will not allow you to play the video it contains. The purpose of encryption on a DVD is only to secure its content making sure that the video will remain on the disc and no user will be able to copy and place it on their hard drives.
But you are always free to access and play the video on the DVD there's no restriction to that. This is done to DVDs because they implement a strong copyright restriction. Though in VCDs no encryption is being applied and you can freely copy the video to your computer but even if this is the case you are still bound to the copyright restrictions.
In order to copy the video of a DVD, you need to decrypt it and this process is also called ripping. To properly rip a DVD, learn the correct procedure in How To Rip A DVD.
