Subj: The Quickening

Posted: Sat Feb 10, 2018 at 07:27:14 am EST (Viewed 322 times)
The Quickening is the name of the energy within immortals that transfers to another immortal when one is beheaded.
1. If no immortal is around when an immortal loses their head, the quickening energy is said to return to the source....
2. When an immortal takes another immortals head they get their quickening energy. If other immortals are close by they do not receive the power. It only goes to the one that does the beheading. This is the real reason fights are one on one.
3. The quickening energy does not affect mortals but the pyrotechnics and explosions of nearby objects can.
4. Grass, trees and other flammable objects can burn, electric devices that are online can be overloaded and conductible materials and alloys can channel the energy.
5. If an immortal loses their head by another means, such as being chewed up by a boat engine (season 1), the power will go to an immortal if they are close by.
6. no immortal escapes the quickening. Duncan tried to run away in an episode but the power still came to him.
7. The energy is the life force, essence, memories and knowledge of an immortal. When taken in, the immortal must assimilate the energy into themselves.
8. Light Quickening: a rare occurence where the quickening of a good or saintly immortal changes the other immortal into a good person.
Darius the monk is an example of this.
9. Dark Quickening: take in too much evil from a beheaded immortal and you will overload and turn evil as the evil personas you have absorbed are too strong to assimilate. This occurred to Duncan in Season 4 and Methos had to take him to a place where he could face his inner evils and cleanse himself. A later comic mini-series retconned things so that when Connor took down the Kurgan it was also a Dark Quickening and Connor had to undergo a similar internal cleansing.
10. The PRIZE: said to be the sum total of all the knowledge and energies of all immortals combined into one immortal for good or evil.
It is said if one like Kurgan gets it that mankind is doomed to an eternity of Darkness. However despite what happened with Connor at the end of the first movie, in the revised continuity created by the series no one really knows the nature of the prize other then it is stated as the combined power of all immortals. What affect it would have on the recipient and Earth itself is not known.

Sorry, but copying text is forbidden on this website!
In the 1940's America had become a more technologically advanced country. The television had been invented, along with the world's first computer and Americans were encouraged that ownership of this technology would make their lives better. This gave people financial problems. At this time the national debt was 43 billion dollars. Willy followed this trend by having the car, the refrigerator, the washing machine and the vacuum cleaner. Willy could not afford to buy these things out right, therefore was under pressure to make payments each month.
This affected his mental state because not only did he have to provide for his family, but also had to earn extra to give his family these items that Americans were being persuaded were necessary. The American Dream is to be successful and envied without using a lot of effort. As Lorraine Hansberry says "something has indeed gone wrong with at least part of the American Dream, and Willy Loman is a victim of the detour. " I believe that there is a lot wrong with the American and how it is misleading many people into believing that America is the key to success.
However, not all of Willy's mistakes can be blamed on the American society, because Willy is able to think for himself. Also not everybody was miserable in the 1940's. This is also the era where people were successful, such as Sugar Ray Robinson and Joe Louis in boxing, Gary Cooper, Betty Davis, Judy Garland and Marlon Brando in film, and, Irving Shaw and Doctor Spock in literature. Aristotle's tragic theory is that the character in question is a great man, who dies, after: undergoing a fall, having a tragic character flaw, at some point being subjected to some recognition of his flaws and making an audience feels pity and catharsis.
One point that Aristotle made was that the hero of the story had to be a great man. In this play, it is the opposite. Willy is a common man living in America, with a stereotypical job, money problems, living in a normal house with a typical American family. He hasn't done anything great for society, or even for his family. But, does the fact that he is not a great man, make the audience less impressed or moved by his downfall? This is dubious. On one hand, the audience feel less sympathetic because he is quite ignorant of what is happening, and he didn't try to help any situations.
For example when he is in the garden planting seeds, he didn't listen to what Linda said about nothing being able to grow in the garden. Also his flaws could have made him gain less sympathy because in some cases he was to blame, for example the way that he treated Linda, telling her to "shut up" all the time makes him seem rude and disrespectful. By treating Linda this way, he will not gain the audiences respect, making him fail in being a tragic hero. On the other hand, the audience are able to connect with Willy.
As Popkin says Willy is "Everyman" meaning that he is a recognisable character in a realistic world. Another point that Aristotle made was that the character had a downfall or a reversal of fortune. This is true of Willy in the play for he creates pity from the audience when he loses his job and has to tell his sons, "I was fired and I'm looking for a little good news to tell your mother," some audience members could also feel pity for Willy because he is losing his mind and recalling his past memories, for example whenever he speaks to Ben.
Ben is both a character and a representation of the American Dream. One example of Ben's representation of the American Dream is when Willy is playing a game of cards with Charley, Ben says "I must make a train, William. There are several properties I'm looking at in Alaska. " This shows Ben's success by the fact that he is looking to buy property whereas the audience know that Willy has to pay debts. This is also showing a contrast between the two characters. Another point made in Aristotle's theory is that the character must have a flaw or be flawed.
Once again this is true of Millers character, Willy. In my opinion, Willy's biggest flaw is how he is unfaithful to his wife, and how Biff, his son, finds out. "You – you gave her mama's stockings. " I don't think flaws like this make an audience feel pity for the character, they could feel angry for the way he disrespected Linda, and maybe feel sympathetic for Biff who had to keep what he found out a secret. An audience would realise that he is keeping this secret when Linda talks about Willy's attempted suicide, when Biff says, "What woman?
" An audience would be able to comprehend what Biff is talking about from seeing previous flashbacks, of Willy's. Willy also has other flaws, for example, his mental illness plays a big part throughout the play, and an audience could feel pity for him because it is not necessarily his fault that he is suffering from mind loss. Personally, I don't feel sympathetic to Willy because he is flawed. I feel that Willy has made unforgivable mistakes, such as making Happy crave attention by ignoring him, when Willy has a flashback remembering old times with his sons, Happy says,"I'm losing weight, you notice, Pop? "
But Willy doesn't respond to him. Also he practically tells Biff that it is acceptable to steal during another flashback with Ben, "Go right over to where they're building the apartment house and get some sand. " Although Willy is mentally ill, he is still conscious of what he is doing, therefore able to correct his mistakes. An additional point within Aristotle's theory was that the character creates catharsis within an audience member. Catharsis is a relief of strong suppressed emotions, in this case through a piece of drama.
Vogal agreed with this point when he said, Miller has "awoken catharsis in us. " I believe that this all depends on how sympathetic the audience feels towards Willy. Somebody who feels upset about how Willy had spent his life would feel this way at the end of the play. But, if somebody didn't feel sympathetic about what happened to Willy throughout the play, would not feel catharsis, and could feel as if it was his own fault that all these bad things have happened to him. An arguable point made is whether Willy has a moment of self recognition, which is another point that Aristotle made.
Some people may argue that Willy does have a point of self recognition because he kills himself, thinking that the family would come into money therefore making himself realise that he had failed to support his family. Another argument would be that Willy knew because of the way Ben spoke to him. For Ben, the American Dream made him successful. But, even though he was a strong believer, the American Dream didn't do anything for Willy. Other people may say that Willy didn't have a moment of self recognition because when times were hard, for example when he came back home from his business trip.
He still had to do it all over again to try and gain success. People could also say that Willy didn't kill himself to help his family, but because of his mental illness. In my opinion Willy does have a moment of self recognition, because he thinks that killing himself and getting the insurance money is the best thing for his family. I also think that it is his mental illness that stops him from realising that they won't get any money because he is committing suicide. In conclusion, I think that Willy is partially successful in being a tragic hero and evoking sympathy from an audience.
I agree that what has happened to him is very upsetting, such as his death and him losing his job. However, I feel that in some cases he deserves to be punished for his terrible errors. Such as the way he treats his family. Willy is quite naive, with believing that practically wasting his money will make him successful. However, I do agree with Miller when he says (About Aristotle's theory being out of date. ) Because a modern audience may suffer the same common tragedy as Willy does on this play.

Fear of God
Roman Catholic Cop doesn't believe God changed all that much 40 years ago. We did.:
Last night during night prayers, , I happened on verse that kind of caught my eye. It's from the 111th Psalm and says, "To fear the Lord is the first stage of wisdom; all who do so prove themselves wise." Fearing the Lord? Do we do that anymore? I mean, "fear of the Lord" is SO pre-Vatican II when we seemed to be look at God through the eyes of the Old Testament--vengeful, angry . . . wrathful. Doesn't the Psalter know that this is 2010 and being afraid of God was taken out of the church in the 1960's? Why are we still praying this psalm. Now we see God as some sort of weak hippie, sitting around and singing "Kum-by-ya" and pondering the mysteries of the universe.Continue reading>>>

Top 5 Reasons to Become an Electrician
Career Path : Apprenticeships
Youâve been thinking about becoming an electrician, but canât decide for sure. Here are five reasons that may help you make up your mind.
Electricians earn an annual salary of between $42,000-57,000 (approximately $20.00-30.00 per hour). This salary varies depending on the province and sector an electrician works in. Either way, the starting salaries are quite appealing, and are likely to rise with experience.
High in Demand
Most trade industries face a perpetual shortage of skilled and trained workers, which means jobs are likely to be available throughout the year. Although every industry is at risk during economic slumps, trade jobs can be more secure than those in other industries, such as real estate or finance.
Option of Union
Many electricians are part of a company-based or independent union. A well-known multi-national union is International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers (IBEW), which represents men and women all across North America and other parts of the world. Founded in 1891, IBEW represents approximately 750,000 workers, the majority of which are skilled electricians.
The principal advantage of being a union member is job security and salary protection, as well as other benefits. Electricians are not forced to be a part of a union, but the option is most definitely there for those who wish to go that route.
Ongoing Challenge
Just by looking at the last decade, we can see how developments in technology have changed the way we go about our everyday lives. By the looks of it, technology will just continue to be moving forward, and will undoubtedly continue to make an impact on how electricity is used.
What this means for current and prospective electricians is that they can anticipate a career that is consistently challenging by way of its ongoing evolution. Being an electrician doesnât just mean limiting your skills to what you learned in school. It requires the ability to continue learning as technology changes in order to remain an expert in the field.
Apprenticeship Opportunity
One of the most appealing features of the electrician trade is the apprenticeship option aspiring electricians have available to them. Most apprenticeships are administered at a trade college or university in conjunction with a licenced employer who agrees to train a student while they are studying. The ability to go to school while also working puts apprentices at an advantage because they are gaining valuable work experience while also earning their diploma.
Most companies will prefer to hire candidates with experience behind them, which can be a difficult requirement to meet for students who are fresh out of school. But students can dodge that hurdle by participating in an apprenticeship program.
There are typically two different types of electrician apprenticeships. There is the industrial apprenticeship, which leads to the following employment opportunities:
- Administrative and Support Services
- Professional, Scientific and Technical Services
- Federal Government Public Administration
And there is also the construction apprenticeship, which can lead to the following employment opportunities:
- Industrial, Commercial and Government Organizations
- Engineering or Research Assistants
- Light and Heavy Manufacturing
- Pulp and Paper, Steel Mills, Chemical Plants, Refineries and Power Utilities
These are just five highlights of an electrician career. There are many different sectors and opportunities within the electrician industry, making it a very appealing and rewarding career venture.

2/3 of a cup of cashews
1/2 cup of almond milk
oregano/ italian seasoning mix ( i used the mix , but regular ol' oregano should be fine)
chilli flakes ( to taste)
sea salt ( to taste)
Black pepper ( to taste) — not toooo much! ; p
3-4 cloves of garlic : D
Broccoli stumps
whole wheat noodles
A spoon ful of coconut oil
Yields 2 smallish portions ( but i will say that you don't want much in terms of left overs nut sauces tend to separate and become less enjoyable)
psst the best meat's in the rump ; p ( Simpsons reference )
While that may, or may not be true for meat eaters… it unfortunately isn't true for broccoli : ( .. But fret not ! They contain all of the vitamins and nutrients of their bushy upper half they both contain the same amounts of fiber , minerals and vitamins however the flourets have about 7 times more beta carotene. So no big deal…
lets get to it
Soak the cashews in almond milk or water if you don't have any… set aside while you get everything else going ; p
Wash peel and chop the broccoli bums. I used a cheese grater to ensure all the bits get a fine chopping, it will be easier on your blender.
sautee the garlic in a bit of coconut oil, add in shredded broccoli … oh yeah this would be a good time to get your noodles cooking : )
Sautee the garlic and broccoli for a few moments, we just want them to be slightly cooked.
Once the aroma fills the air you should remove from heat. add the broccoli and garlic to the mixture of cashews and almond milk. add in salt, oregano, black pepper
now blend bend blend!
You will end up with a wonderful creamy sauce ! give it a taste and add more spices as needed : )
I'm alfredo It won't taste like cheese, because i hate cheese… but it will be nutty and delicious!
Pour over the pasta, noodles of your choice and that's it baby!

We have finally had a few good reports over the Easter weekend. Most fish were caught trolling or casting Spinner baits in around 20 ft. 79 cm was the biggest reported, caught by Dazza from Gundagi Anglers. The main basin and Cathedral Rock area most popular.
Yellow Belly
Plenty of fish being caught. The fish bins at the cleaning tables were nearly full most days over the weekend. The yellows have moved from holding on trees out deeper and are now holding on the bottom around the base of the trees in around 10 metres of water. Jigging shrimp, worms, vibes and plastics is all working. For those that like their shrimp fishing, reports of 50 shrimp per trap have been common. Not too many reports from the guys trolling this week. The Bidgee River up to Scrubby was the most popular.
The odd fish being caught mostly trolling, no big numbers.
No reports
Park News
A big thankyou to all those that paid us a visit over Easter. We had some live music on Saturday, Easter egg hunt on Sunday morning a family disco, a movie night and great weather. We certainly had some campers in. There were no disturbances or trouble and it was great to have a lot of younger families and children pay us a visit.

Europe's democracy isn't ours to give away, it belongs to our children and grandchildren. We just borrowed it from those who fought, died and won the democracy that we all lean on.
They gave democracy to us so that we could build on it and make it better and stronger for every generation. This democracy have been challenged many times but never as much as right now, before the European elections and comming member-state elections.
How do we handle this?
I want to see a broad coalition on EU level and on national level against all totalitarianism, rasism and division. At the same time all of us who sees the threat must reach out to those who don't and show the strength of democracy in action. We must use all democratic weapons we have to fight the undemocratic forces back.

Death Camp
THE INVESTIGATOR special international edition (English), July 2072
Journey to the Forbidden Land
Never has the human race witnessed such a travesty as that occurring in the grand nation of Satbodhjaya. Their religious leader has made many converts around the world, but the truth about this group has now been uncovered by our correspondent. His moving documentary The Forbidden Land will air on Channels D and F throughout August (see pg. 25 for programme).
After a gruelling swim and an unpleasant trek through a sewer, I made my way to my host Wazeem's [name changed] house. I travelled for five days hiding in various camps that had been arranged for me, and finally reached the outskirts of a dead village. The house was barely a shack, kept standing by the few bricks Wazeem had salvaged from the wrecks of other houses in the area. I took a refreshing bath in the nearby river and proceeded to slowly unpack my recording equipment from its waterproof cover. When it was time to eat the modest dinner, Wazeem kept me company, entertaining me with stories from his boyhood, before everything had changed, of course.
His cheerful demeanour put me in a good mood despite the gravity of my mission. His occasionally darkened, as if the memories suddenly sent pain spiking through him, which then gradually receded. But overall, I felt welcome, and a bit hopeful.
As we prepared to retire, I asked him, "Are you not eating as well?"
"Our country may be in ruins, but our manners are still impeccable. Athithi devo bhavah." He turned around to sleep.
The guest is God – I understood. He had given up his day's ration to give me a filling meal. My good mood evaporated, and I turned my thoughts instead to my task the next day.
Our world has seen many changes since the Death Machine was first introduced all those years ago. I, like most of you, was tagged at birth, and my chip carries all the government needs to know about me, including the way I will die. I am comfortable with this knowledge, but many are not, and remain susceptible to those who claim to have alternatives or escape routes.
In last year's world summit, the leader of the new country Satbodhjaya addressed everyone in a stunning speech. Creating a world coalition, where there were no boundaries between lands, and reorganising the people of the world not by language or race but by skill – these were radical ideas that a few feared but many warmed to very quickly. The planning is in its initial stages – you can read about it in our October 2071 and March 2072 issues – but the basic government of this brave new world will be a group of people selected from all walks of life, and led by an elected representative. It is understood that Satbodhjaya's leadership will play a close advisory role.
I woke up drenched in sweat. The afternoon heat was overpowering in the stuffy little room. I grabbed the local clothes Wazeem had left out for me and practically ran to the river. The tepid water would have to do. A dead fish bumped up against me and I swatted it away, slightly disgusted. I got out and put on my new outfit, and trekked back to the shack to layer on the charcoal to disguise my light skin. I found Wazeem, who said he had organised a small trip for us before my meeting.
We crossed the river on a depressing makeshift bridge and walked for what seemed like ages in the blistering heat, until we reached some hills. Wazeem directed me to follow him, and began climbing. It was a gentle slope with a few treacherously slippery rocks on the way, but nothing we couldn't handle. At one point, Wazeem began crawling, and I imitated him. We came to a halt near a huge rock that Wazeem showed me how to hide behind.
I looked around. I could see a huge, walled-off area with a lot of security patrolling it. Inside, I could just make out a few long but shallow buildings and clusters of people everywhere at different machines. I took my smaller camera out and tried to focus on it all.
Wazeem leaned over and whispered, "That's our local work camp. I go there daily from dawn to noon to make small wooden dolls. It is my family craft, one that will die with me."
I nodded to acknowledge that I had heard him, and whispered, "Why are you allowed to stay outside?"
"Mine is not a very common skill. I am allowed to visit and I do not need to work for long hours. I am paid with minimal rations, instead of the slightly better fare the workmen receive for their hard labour. If I miss a day, I will be starved for three."
My mouth took some time to work. Before I could reply, Wazeem turned around to leave, and I followed him assuming the subject was closed for now.
When we reached the foot of the hill, Wazeem took me in a different direction and told me to stand near a huge banyan tree.
"Walk in the direction of those yellow flowers for thirty minutes, you will come to the river. You will know how to come from there, yes?"
I nodded, and he left. A few minutes later, I heard a rustling, and Mallika [name changed] stood next to me, her clothes soaked in blood.
Swami Satbodhava rose to power remarkably quickly in the past three years owing to his entire country's backing – he claims to pray for the souls of his people and ensure they will not be trapped in some vicious rebirth or other painful cycle because of their predicted deaths. His ministry claims to have turned the country's economy around, and many reports of developmental measures and progress have been circulated. The entire thing seemed to good to be true, especially in such a turbulent international situation, and so we began to investigate.
We had our suspicions confirmed when various journalists sent to Satbodhjaya began going missing, or turning up dead somehow. There has been no news going in or coming out of the country, and there appeared to be very strict border control. Something unpleasant was going on, and we at The Investigator were determined to find out what.
An arduous trial-and-error process finally resulted in our establishing a means of contact and an entry/escape route – however, it was so treacherous that none were prepared to undertake the mission. My military background had already prepared me for rigorous exertion, and so I volunteered to train for seven months. Meanwhile, The Investigator continued its search for the truth. Time passed and, finally, I was ready.
As I set up my camera, I watched Mallika as she tended to her wound. She was a relatively small woman, dark skinned and dark haired, with eyes that held the gentle glint in the blackest graphite. Well, eye, really – the right one had been permanently damaged by the acid torture she had endured while being held captive. She was the leader of the rebellion in this region. A Ph.D. in Capital Markets and she was hiding in jungles covered in blood.
I started with an awkward introduction and a few questions about her background, which she brushed aside as unimportant. I asked about her wound, but she said not to worry, as she was a CHILDBIRTH case and was only four months pregnant. Disturbed, I nevertheless dived headlong into the abyss.
"How did Swami Satbodhava come to power so quickly?"
"You must understand, poverty in Satbodhjaya is very different from that in the West. You may also be living under a tyrant's little finger, but you have a benefit system that affords free health care, a basic amount of food and protection from the elements. Here, people die of starvation and exposure. Little children of five, six years of age are sent to work. The machine has divided the people, and illiteracy, ignorance and disease are rampant.
"When the government first began testing the public, they called it the Stroj Smrti – the original Czech name, so the educated people wouldn't suspect it was the dreaded Death Machine. It was a remarkably effective tactic, as smriti translates into 'memory', in our language. They never officially said anything, but the impoverished people believed it would preserve their memories forever – a technology that is available currently to the richest of the firangs, the foreigners. At least their minds would survive now, and wait for a better future to reawaken to."
I could imagine the temptation. Escapism was always a great weakness of us mortals.
"What happened when the truth leaked out?"
"The entire nation was outraged, of course. I'm sure all those riots and assassinations were reported by your media. Even then, you can hardly imagine the level of chaos the nation was plunged into. Our country's history is steeped in religion, to the extent that it, or its absence, is a constant factor in our lives. Islam, Hinduism, Buddhism – the three main pillars of the subcontinent were at a loss to explain the existence of this Death Machine, and their considerable power had united and kept the machine from proliferating in our country. It only took a few power-hungry idiots, or perhaps corrupt fools – you can never tell these days, to dredge up enough confusion among the people to leave the various prophets squabbling over the details while they quietly passed the resolution to make death tests compulsory.
"When the truth behind the Stroj Smrti came out, the shock was all-encompassing. People refused to go to work and to obey basic laws. The entire economy came crashing down, the government was dissolved, and many coalition attempts were made and soon discarded. The nation was highly fragmented. When you have what is essentially a breakdown of civilisation, the need for a strong leader who can guide you through this difficult time becomes paramount. There were of course, many con men who tried to milk the opportunity, but Swami Satbodhava outdid them all.
"The Atmasmriti, or the consciousness of the self, is a movement at the very root of which is the concept of knowledge of your death empowering you to achieve great things, and an absence of Abhiniveśa, or the fear of death. Look at it as a juxtaposition of extreme Communism and Nietzsche-ism. It is a belief system that hinges on understanding your potential, your place in life, and working to maximise your contribution to that place, in the belief that you transcend humanism by achieving your best."
"That doesn't sound too bad," I said. I hadn't thought it through, but it seemed like working to your best ability would in theory be a great way to rise from the ashes of a destroyed country.
Mallika frowned. "Yes, and Fascism didn't sound too bad, either. Desperate people are prone to grasping frantically onto whatever straw can help them take a few more breaths when drowning. We were no different. The Swami rose to cult status, and soon became powerful enough to influence the tatters of parliament, to the extent that he pretty much dictates what happens in the country now. And here we are, with over half our population culled at the death camps and the other half working to fuel Atmasmriti's international campaign."
"How can people be killed at death camps when they have death predictions? And why?"
"The simple fact is that it was their death prediction. Suffocation, poisoning, cardiac arrest – all these were the consequences of being gassed with the deadly Whiteout. It's just that no one put it all together until things were well under way. As for the why, it's a simple case of applied eugenics. People who are old, weak, enemies of the state or unskilled. Undesirables."
"Weren't there educated people to object to this?" I was beyond outraged.
"Hunger and poverty can make even the greatest intellectual irrational, Thomas. There were a few pockets who tried to revolt; I believe they are still at it, what's left of them. I am doing my best with the few resources we can save from our basic rations. We also have a few spies who try to supply us with weapons, but the successful ones are few and far between. Our focus right now is to try to unite the rebels into a single rebellion, and combine our efforts to contact the world outside as well as rescue as many as we can from the work camps.
"Talking to you right now brings it all back for me, and I can't help but think that what we are doing here is futile. But you are our only hope, Thomas, you must get this beyond the wall and tell your people the truth behind the situation here. We are trying, we will never stop trying, but our shadows are much longer than yours."
My interview with Mallika ended soon after that. I felt paralysed by this burden of knowledge, this incredible responsibility I now had to make it out of the country and to share this horror with the world. I slowly made my way back to Wazeem's depressing little shack.
A horrendous stench attacked me as I neared the river. Decomposing, diseased bodies, some half eaten by presumably the dead creatures that floated with them – it looked like some camp was dumping its unholy waste. For fear of my equipment drowning, I couldn't just run across the rocks, so I had to endure over ten minutes of carefully stepping on the slippery rock-bridge and trying (and failing) to avoid the bodies now bunching up and toppling across the crossing. I retched till my stomach strangled itself empty, and dry heaved some more as I attempted to shoot the scene.
I arrived shell-shocked at Wazeem's. The shack was empty – he was probably waiting at the food queue for his rations. I couldn't bring myself to watch my recordings just yet and instead collapsed on the little cot, into a sickly stupor.
I was tempted to stay behind and look around for more stories, but my sense of responsibility and survival prevailed – I'm not sure which drove me more, though. I made my way through to the border, once again relying on the rebel support chain Mallika had alerted regarding my journey. This was the hardest challenge – the only unguarded area was a 1.5 mile stretch of barren land that spilled onto the Bay of Bengal.
I had contacted an independent rebel group that had taken control of a small sewer that led under the stretch into the sea. The route had never been used as they could never get the equipment (nor had they the bodily strength) needed to swim far enough to surface and hope to survive, and no one from the outside had been able to truly penetrate the wall and contact the rebellion. Besides, the various combination studies I had invested in assured me there was no way PROSTATE CANCER would result in my death by drowning, in its current stage – I only had to fear capture, and I was prepared enough to escape that.
After five hours of steady swimming, I saw the Prima Ballerina [name changed], anchored to let the rich [retracted] on it watch a whale family enjoying itself. My contact had left the anchor room unlocked, so I could climb inside and get a safe ride to Australia as the reclusive Ralph Eichmann (I had been in a rather ironic mood as I had made the arrangements). I felt a profound sense of relief as I dropped onto the floor, despite being aware of the various obstacles ahead of me. The adrenaline was ebbing, leaving in its place sheer exhaustion, but I somehow made it to my new quarters. And then, I slept.

Richards, Clarence Alvin - Lieut
Destroyer's Commander Deliberately Grasped Heavily Charged Wires
SAG HARBOR, L. I., May 26.—Lieutenant Clarence Alvin Richards, commander of the United States destroyer Fanning, was instantly killed by an electric shock in the station of the Sag Harbor Light & Power Company here today.
Harry D. Christian, night watchman at the station, said it appeared to him that the lieutenant deliberately committed suicide by taking hold of two heavily charged wires.
The Fanning was one of a fleet of war vessels which has been maneuvering in Gardiner's Bay, making their headquarters here, but the vessels were under orders to leave for Newport at 3 A. M. Why Lieutenant Richards was ashore after the sailing orders were issued is unknown. Christian said the lieutenant came to the power station two hours before the fleet was to sail and said he was a government inspector. He pushed Christian aside and walking into the station picked up two wires, receiving the shock which killed him. Lieutenant Richards was appointed to the navy from Kansas and was 34 years old.

- adorable...but useless
This may not be a fair review, since I purchased these by mistake. I meant to purchase personalized matchbooks with matches inside, not notebooks. I think the notebooks are pretty useless.
That said, the quality is great,and they came out really nice. The selection of images was the best, and the price was good. And also, when I told American Wedding that I made a mistake, they waived the shipping for me when I ordered the match books I had intended on ordering in the first place.

A Lone Hero and His 'Buy America' Campaign
In almost all cases I favor unrestrained trade for simple economic reasons: comparative advantage. Defense procurement, because it involves government spending and national security, is a political issue and deserves different treatment, I think.
The obvious issue of national security should always take precedence: we develop these technologies to maintain a military technological lead over the rest of the world and we shouldn't compromise that in any situation. Other things, such as machining the fuselage for an aircraft, could be treated more like traditional trade.
It doesn't make a lot of sense, though, to farm these jobs out to "allies" who don't support us reliably and I would use our defense procurement budget, which is larger than the GDP for some countries, as a reward for loyalty. Britain, for example, should be given special consideration because of their unfailing support of the United States. I think we can agree on what the French should receive, as well.
As for the specifics of what Congressman Hunter is trying to achieve with the Joint Strike Fighter, he seems to be mostly in the ballpark. The essence of his proposal seems to be an increase in American-made content from 50% to 65%. That seems reasonable enough, provided that it doesn't exclude the British. Not only have they been staunch allies, but they are replacing their entire fleet of fighters with JSFs. That represents money in American pockets and, for that alone, they should receive consideration for the manufacture of parts of the JSF.
For me, the larger issue is: should our defense procurement budget be a tool of our foreign policy? My answer is yes.
His name is Duncan Hunter. A former Army Ranger and a Republican congressman from California, he is also the Chairman of the House Armed Services Committee. Recently, Hunter has shown that rarest of political traits – courage – in his solitary campaign to compel the Department of Defense to "buy American" and increase the domestic content of components and systems used on the F-35 Joint Strike Fighter.
In doing so, he has gone toe-to-toe with leaders in his own party, the Secretary of Defense and his Senate counterpart, Sen. John Warner, R-VA, Chairman of the Senate Armed Services Committee.
The prime contractor for the F-35 Joint Strike Fighter is Lockheed Martin. Despite its status as the nation's pre-eminent defense contractor, Lockheed Martin has sold out other American defense suppliers and their workers to win foreign military customers.
The JSF as designed was proposed as a replacement for several different U.S. aircraft platforms that included the Navy and Marine Corps A-6E Intruders manufactured by Grumman Aerospace; the Boeing/McDonnell Douglas F/A-18s in Navy and Marine Corps service and the Lockheed Martin/General Dynamics F-16s utilized by the U.S. Air Force, the Air National Guard and the Air Force Reserve.

And for the start of that story, we have to go back quite a way because EASTPAK has been making high-quality packs and bags since 1952. That was the year Eastern Canvas Products USA, with Monte Goldman at the helm, landed its first military contract. It did so by manufacturing high-quality duffels, backpacks and safety equipment for the US Army. And while the brand we know today may have outgrown those early roots, it still owes its rigorous quality standards to these early beginnings, when quality really could mean the difference between life and death for the American G.I.
But it wasn't until 1976, when Monte's son Mark joined the company at age 29, that the real seeds of worldwide success were sown and the EASTPAK brand really came into its own. Mark Goldman, the free-thinking pianist fresh out of college, brought a new sense of energy, vision and direction to the company's consumer line. More importantly, however, he brought with him an idea. While studying at university, he noticed that the "cool" students weren't carrying briefcases around anymore but army issue bags. What he noticed, in other words, was a gaping big hole in the market. Monte Goldman took a bit of convincing but in the end he gave the green light for a trial production run and Mark set off for a Chicago trade fair in 1977 with the first range of backpacks, duffels and shoulderbags for the consumer market. When the first flurry of orders followed soon after, Mark knew he was onto a winner.
By 1981 Mark Goldman's bright idea had flourished into a booming business. Which is precisely when Norman Jacobs entered the scene; the man who in partnership with Mark Goldman was to steer the EASTPAK brand to even greater heights throughout the 1980s. As the architect behind cornering the University Bookstore market, Norman had effectively ensured EASTPAK was the clear "brand of choice" on the East Coast of the US anno 1983. Not content with riding the wave of reputation, however, the duo put their money where their mouths were in 1984, introducing the now famous Lifetime Warranty, which is still offered on the majority of EASTPAK products today.
EASTPAK was the first brand to replace the traditional brown and green bags with fun, flashy colors. This trend was further reinforced in 1987, the year EASTPAK well and truly emerged "out of the woods and into the city" for good. For 1987 saw the first appearance of wild, extravagant prints in the catalogue, marking EASTPAK'S emergence as a genuine, urban lifestyle brand. This move was matched by the first series of fresh and provocative ads in a range of lifestyle magazines from Rolling Stones on up. EASTPAK had well and truly hit the streets and had finally "talked the walk" as well. By building on the hip, urban explorer image the bags seemed to have already acquired all on their own, it was just a small step to becoming, as the baseline from the era boldly claimed, the "Leader of the Packs".
And just to prove that the brand had really grown up, it was also around this time that EASTPAK sprouted wings, conquering the Asian market with its authentic American lifestyle image. Latin America soon followed and in 1986, EASTPAK crossed the Atlantic, launching distribution activities in Europe. EASTPAK was first introduced in France by Kostia Belkin, a student who stumbled upon the EASTPAK brand while trying to peddle a peculiar variety of plastic briefcases in the USA. During a chance meeting, Kostia was told in no uncertain terms by Mark Goldman that "if you are crazy enough to come to a foreign country to sell a shitty product, then in your own country with a good product you are going to do great!" After Kostia set up a highly successful distribution strategy for France, the way was clear for EASTPAK to take over the rest of Europe. Which they soon did.

A life-long friend's father passed away Monday evening.
His funeral Mass was this morning.
It got me thinking about friendship, family, parents, community, & church.
A wild mixture of emotions, but after loosing my Yia Yia this past October, funerals "help" put things into perspective.
My thoughts are with my buddy & his family during this hard time.
I'm not big on religion or pressing spirituality (just be nice to people, people), but this weekend, try calling someone you love or have lost contact with.
That's all.
Much love.

What's Happened Since my 40-Day Diet and Weight Loss Experiment Last Year?
Last year, I spent the 40 days before Easter dieting and exercising. It all started when a publicist asked if I wanted to try the DDP Yoga system. I like yoga so I agreed to test it out for a review for this blog. It wasn't supposed to be a serious and intense project but it just started to evolve that way. Since I knew how hard it was to get motivated to stick with a diet and exercise program, I decided to seize on my burst of enthusiasm and see if I could make it the full 40 days.
Well, I did! I posted my results and they were great.
Phase One: Getting Started
I sometimes ask myself, "What made you want to do this?" As I think back, I think it was a confluence of two events:
1) I was fed up with not being able to lose the last pregnancy pounds from my son. I was at the point where I needed to either go out and buy clothes in larger sizes or find a way to get back into the clothes in my closet.
2) I was flattered by the offer to test out an exercise program featuring a real fitness celebrity and wanted to do a good job. Even though the publicist making the offer likely blast posted this to a thousand bloggers, it felt like a personal invitation. It was like someone saying, "Hey, we see the potential in you. If you will only try, you could be great at this!"
So, you start with that enthusiasm and that belief that you are about to change your life. If you are currently pursuing a diet and exercise New Year's Resolution, you might be in that phase right now.
Phase Two: Maintenance
After my 40 days were up, though, the challenges changed. It was now no longer about changing my life and losing weight, it was about doing the hard work to maintain what I had achieved.
This is not the glamorous or exciting part of diet and exercise. This is a bit like housework. You have to stay on top of it but even when you are working really hard, no one really notices or congratulates you. You look exactly the same. You are supposed to maintain your weight. Why should anyone care?
This is also the difficult time when your weight will creep up slightly from your lowest point. It has to really because that's the way a healthy, functioning body works. I also had lost a little more than I needed to in my initial phase so I had some margin to gain.
This is the phase when they turn the cameras off on shows like The Biggest Loser but these are the exact moments that we wish they kept the cameras rolling. What happens to those contestants the first 30 days they are home?
It's hard to see those numbers climb on the scale, and hard motivationally. You are still glad to be in the right weight range but you know that you were once skinnier than you are now and it is hard to feel great about now when you remember then.
So, what kept me going during this first maintenance phase? Swimming lessons! I was starting my weight maintenance phase just about the time my children were headed to summer swim lessons. My son and I were in the "Mommy and Me" class and I would have to wear a bathing suit for a month. I knew I had to keep up my goals at least until swim lessons were over.
And with experimentation and switching things up, I managed to stay put for a month.
And what happened after swimming lessons? I'll let you know tomorrow. 🙂

Jordan Brand has been on a roll this year. Tearing into their 30th anniversary, JB has brought us many great colorways of their classic Air Jordan 1 High. The latest scheduled to hit retailers is the Air Jordan 1 High "UNC." The sneaker takes inspiration from Mike's alma mater sporting the North Carolina Tar Heel's team colors.
The Air Jordan 1 High "UNC" is made up of a Carolina Blue and white leather appearance. The simplicity of the design should make this a hard sneaker to cop. Slated to release October 10th, let us know if you plan on scooping up a pair in the next couple weeks! Also, if you're looking to cop a pair today, you can find this pair on eBay!

First Image of DEADPOOL's Negasonic Teenage Warhead Hits the Web

Mark Ruffalo Talks Possible PLANET HULK Movie
In a recent chat with IGN, Avengers: Age of Ultron star Mark Ruffalo talked about what's next for Hulk, saying "Well he's going to space. Yeah, I mean there's some talk of maybe 'Planet Hulk'." The star went on to clarify that while he's not in active talks about a "Planet Hulk" film, he'd "be completely interested in entertaining that."
This isn't the first time a "Planet Hulk" film has been discussed. While Marvel's Kevin Feige has, in the past, downplayed the possibility of a "Planet Hulk" movie, Ruffalo's new interest may spark a new look at doing such a film. Ruffalo next appears as Hulk in Avengers: Age of Ultron, which is set for a May 1 release.

A photo posted by Jim Parrack (@parrack120) on

Captain America: Civil War First Film to Shoot on Imax/Arri 2D Cameras
According to Variety, 15 minutes of Captain America: Civil War will be shot on IMAX's new 2D digital cameras.
"We like being on the cutting edge of technology and we like to enhance storytelling with technology in a way that pushes the narrative forward creatively," said co-director Joe Russo. "When you're working on a Marvel film there's a sense of showmanship that goes along with the movies and no exhibitor exploits that better than Imax."

A locally produced TV program focuses entirely on how you can be a better pet owner.
BECON-TV, in partnership with Broward County Animal Care and Adoption, recently unveiled four new episodes of "Take Paws," its pet care and adoption series. The idea is to educate viewers about the importance of pet adoption as well as various aspects of pet care, including responsible ownership.
"The expertise of local vets and trainers appearing in 'Take Paws' will help pet owners provide a healthy, happy future for their pets," said Mike Moscatello, executive producer of the series. "Most of all, we hope the shelter segments in each show will lead to more lives being saved through new adoptions."
The show airs at 7 p.m. Tuesdays and Thursdays on BECON-TV, which is owned and operated by the School Board of Broward County. The four new episodes were made possible by a grant from the Community Foundation of Broward. Some of the topics are how to choose a new pet, canine therapy and dealing with inappropriate elimination by cats.
The show also looks at pet care, training, behavior and the importance of vaccinations, spaying and neutering. In addition, adoptable pets are featured between each segment.
"Not only is it a showcase for our adoptable pets and an excellent venue for education on the standpoint of being a responsible pet owner, vaccinations, spaying and neutering. It is also a great way to bring these pets right into people's living rooms," said Lisa Mendheim, public education coordinator with Broward County Animal Care.
Mendheim said that on any given day, there are up to 200 dogs and cats at their facility, and the series has provided a boost in their adoptions. Moscatello said it is their highest-rated show produced in-house.
"I had an idea about a show that would talk to veterinarians on pet health and care of pets, as well as training in terms of keeping pets down off the furniture and how to walk on a leash," he said. "Also, we wanted to look at all of the cool things that go on in the community in terms of pets like events and expos."
"We want to make this available to other school districts, libraries and junior colleges nationwide, and those markets can use local pets in their markets to push adoption and pet care," said Noel Hyatt, who heads up BECON's public relations and fund development.

Interview with Patricia Molina, engineer at WSP, Edinburgh, UK
Name and profession:
Patricia Molina, engineer at WSP, Edinburgh, UK
What is the best thing of your current job?
As both a Civil Engineer and an Entrepreneur, my passions lie in creating and designing from scratch and seeing those ideas turn into real-life products.
What was your first job?
My first job was as a nanny and baby sitter. I love kids!
As a kid, what was your dream job?
My dream job as a child was to be a pilot. However, when I first experienced a heavy turbulence flight, I changed my mind.
Did you set yourself a professional path to follow?
Yes and no. I have always aimed to maintain a balance between what I should do and what I want to do. I have come to understand that choosing the right path is as important as sometimes letting your instincts guide you and go with the flow.
Did you have a role model growing up?
I do not feel that I have a particular role model I followed. This said, someone who inspired me was Ffyona Campbell. She was not just the first woman to walk around the world by foot, but she was only 16 when she did it!
What is the best piece of advice you were given?
The best advice I have received is to do everything it takes to become an independent woman, to learn from my mistakes and to be fearless. Words to live by, thanks mum.
Who inspires you now?
Steve Jobs.
What would you tell a girl who doesn't know what to do in the future?
We all find our purpose at different pace and paths. Find what you are good at and what you enjoy doing and don't be afraid to express yourself.
Define success. What do you think is necessary to be able to say you have succeeded?
Fight for what you want and achieve what you set yourself to do. Success is that and more. For me, to be happy is to be successful.
What do you think is necessary to be able to say you have succeeded?
I believe it is to spend every moment of your life doing what you enjoy, what you believe in. As Ray Bradbury said, "do what you love, love what you do."
