people in their thirties who still live in houseshares.
always weird.
sorry, mate.
i know adults not being adults is a sore subject for you.
it's cool man
i'm pretty content rn. not sure i need the approval of the kirk van houten's of the world :')
He sleeps in a racing car bed!
Do YOU sleep in a racing car bed?
thread wasn't a pop at anyone on here.
just realised recently that quite a few of my mates earn good money and prefer to live in squalor so they can spend their wages on boozing it up.
stuff like getting your own place, be it alone, with a partner, even with one mate or something, doing it up, being a bit houseproud, that's nice, isn't it? being, say, 35, sharing a bathroom with six other people, sleeping on a mattress on the floor, getting pissed every night still, that's grim.
Something i've noticed generally - pleasant, bright people who are 30, 35, older and still choose to live like students despite having well-paid jobs.
As i said, thread wasn't designed to be a pop at you, dunno why you'd think it would be.

I'm glad there are no sweeping generalisations
about houseshares in this ITT.
not sure you'll get too many bites with this one, chief, it's a bit obvious
But for the record I actually agree with you.
Shows what I know.umlaut_ampersand this'd this
Kind of related
Went to view a flat yesterday and it was completely different to the pictures so was like ERRRR NO then the letting agent said "oh that ones round the corner, jump in the car and Ill take you there"! 30 minutes later we end up miles away....in a shared house.....with about 5 students. I should have bashed her face in for the insult.
I love it when you get ads online that have
"pictures for illustrative purposes only. actual property may differ." on them
How far into the 30 minutes was it before you became concerned?
About 2 minutes
but Im far too trusting and polite to question a professional
Wait, I thought you lived in some tiny town
and made a point of how 'not London' it was? I mean I'd have thought 30 minutes driving in Leeds would get you halfway out the back end of Bradford, for example.
People move, Theo
We dont all spend our life in the same place
- badmanreturns, andyvine, Royter-Hatfood, and monoshono this'd this
does living with your friend count?
i've always felt sorry for people trying hard to do 'adult' things to prove something to themselvesmonoshono this'd this
A lot of people just "climb life's ladder" (mortgage, marriage, career) just because they're too unimaginative to do owt else.
Note I said "a lot" and not everyone, don't all have a pop.
That said, allow being 35 and living in a flatshare though.
Jeez. I'd rather move to the other end of the country and have my own place at that age than still live in London and be in a flatshare or something at 35.
a man of cast-iron opinions.
look, i'm a live and let live guy generally, just a bit weird how people who can afford to be independent would choose not to be. the difference in cost between a houseshare and a small rented place of your own isn't relative to the advantages, just don't get it.
i dunno, i suspect some people are absolutely shit scared of their own company, and/or want to prolong thier youth as long as they can. perhaps both are understandably.
you're finally making some decent points in your second paragraph there
maybe they're just saving up to buy somewhere? you pay a pretty solid premium to live alone.
Doesn't seem to be the case in Manchester.
Houseshares, even in 'orrible houses, more than it would cost for a housing association property, or even getting a mortgage. I know people who pay, say, £400-£500 a month plus bills to have a boxroom in a six-tennant house. To me that's madness.LostMoyes this'd this
how is a houseshare in your 20's different to a houseshare in your 30's?
I think anyone who thinks there is some difference is probably a bit of a weirdo.monoshono this'd this
Look, playa...
i'm not ageist...just suspicious of people who get to midde-age and don't want a bit of their own space.
generally speaking
you have your own space in a shared house.
to an extent...
but you don't have your own personal space. if the fella next door drops his arse in his sleep, or the woman downstairs is on the job then you'll know about it. you can't be the king of your castle.
that's not always an issue for most people
there's loads of benefits to having a shared space. I wouldn't live in such an awesome house if I lived alone.
if you don't mind me asking...
- how much do you pay?
- how many people live in your house?
- how much would it cost you for a small one-bedroom flat in the same area?
- £370 per month
- 4
- almost double and it'd probably be a shit heap
Yeah. But housing is a big issue here (and most places) so I'd need to be at risk to even be considered for housing through an association.
not really.
you do know housing associations are different to council housing, right?
Pretty sure there's a huge demand for housing assocation properties
anyway, it's irrelevant, completely. I love where I live and who I live with.
actually, that's not it.
i'm suspicious of adults who don't want to self-improve. you've got to have targets, man. if you're still showering with the pubes of four other people when you're 30 or 35 then you (generally speaking, not you, obviously) need to have a look at yourself.
why 30 or 35?
What's significant about those ages?
I would absolutely hate to worry about such trivial things. It's just a fucking age.cat_race this'd this
so you don't have absolutely any desire to...
y'know, settle down, grow old with someone, own your own bricks and mortar, etc?
yes, probably
but 30? Fuckin' hell, give me a chance.
30's old for a mortgage/kids etc now.
each to their own, but i think people (generally) ought to have some sort of idea what they'd like to do with their lives by that age. idk, just think it'd be really hard to start thinking of buying a house when you're, say, 40, especially having not saved money for a number of years. i used to think people who bought houses at, say, 20 were sad bastards, but the reverse is true really. who's that guy on here who paid his house off by 31? imagine the freedom that must bring. great stuff.
Aye, but how much fun did he have to give up during his 20's...
Swings and roundabouts innit. We all come from different backgrounds, different things motivating us in life. Different upbringings. Some people who have grown up in very unsettled backgrounds might just desire some security in life. Maybe the fact I grew up in a stable, two-parent home means I'm more willing to seek out the bright lights and a bit of fun. Perhaps.
my friend bought a house when he was 24. It's caused him nothing but misery and he never has money to do fun things.
The dream.
dont even like living in a houseshare now in my early 20s
also don't like living alone though
living in your ma & da's box room
isn't really a houseshare though is it?
I love people who live at home with their parents
Who refer to their "housemates"
a guy who used to work at morrisons when I was a kid
said he lived with a couple called Bev and Sam. He was in his 40s and Bev and Sam were his parents. I think he works on the fish counter now

Love having a flatmate.
Lots of benefits and can't think of the cons. Maybe bringing a girl back and my flatmate is on the sofa. "Shall we just go to my bedroom?", "Sure". THANKS FLATMATE.tiramisu this'd this
- badmanreturns this'd this
yeah i think the ideal is living with just one flatmate that you get on with
none of the complicated politics and mess of living in a big flatshare, all the benefit of having someone to chat to etc. i would definitely go quite mental if i lived totally alone.Royter-Hatfood, Robeson, Icarus-Smicarus, and japes this'd this
^ this makes sense.
costs a bit cheaper, you have some company, but you can still make the rules. you have your own space and personal space and if not it's easy to resolve issues. no waits for bathrooms or shit like that, but a bit of noise so it's not weird. aye, that's fine. i just don't understand people who live five or six to a house when they could do this for marginally more money and it be more convenient in numerous ways.Robeson this'd this
Get this though - I own the flat. He pays ME to live here.
If I had five or six people here I wouldn't need to work.
Applied for a 2 bedroom flat in halls at uni
dreading it, can't be arsed living with some other cunt. What if he's a prick.
what if he's amazing
and you end up marrying him?
Just imagining him being like a proper person/adult
and knowing how to cook and everything and I'll just be the clueless undeveloped weirdo no life skills despite being the same age
just between me and you...
nobody under about 40 can cook. lots of people pretend they can. that weird superiority thing again, but in reality nobody cooks from scratch except on special occasions, they all stick a frozen pizza in the over, make some pasta, go to the chipp like you and i do. don't worry about it.shrewbie, eltham, barleysugar, japes, gonad, badmanreturns, and Icarus-Smicarus this'd this
you're odd
I take it you live alone?
We're all good mates in my houseshare
so it wouldn't be the worst thing in the world to still be here in my 30s. It's fun having a group of friends at hand you can watch Game of Thrones/watch the footy/go to the cinema/go to the pub with rather than having to organise to meet someone who lives 2 tube lines away.
I think it'd be weird though if you're 30 and you're one of those housemates who skulks around in a dressing gown not talking to anyone. If I had one of those in my house I would probably confront him and ask them what they're doing with their life. If it turns out to be me then I hope to have the self-awareness to move on to a better existence.LostMoyes this'd this
TBH though I'm desperate for my gf to
move to London and get a flat with me so I can get the hell out of here.
look, mate...
i know you find it hard to accept that we're not all giant babies, and that you're angry at me because i'm younger than you, but accept yourself, you'll finish college at some point.
as if you're younger than me.
You should try getting to know some real people who houseshare in their 30s.
They all cook really nice stuff from scratch all the time.
And then get pissed and laugh about how they don't spend all their wages on rent and council tax and energy bills.
*oven, *chippy
True, when I moved into my current house, both my housemates
(two of us are still in our 20s so we're fine) did all this great cooking for the first few weeks and I felt like a proper loser just making pasta or sausage and beans all the time. Ever since like a month or two after we moved in they both just have like pizza all the time. Proper cooking is definitely too much effort for anyone to keep up.
he'll teach you how to be an adult and it'll be a heartwarming buddy comedy
with montages of you learning how to boil an egg and accidentally dying all the clothes pink and then you'll shrug and laugh together at your hopelessness and then one day you'll bake a cake and clean the bathroom all on your own and it'll be a heartwarming coming-of-age momentbarleysugar, japes, badmanreturns, and shadyadie this'd this
Love living with others.
Mid fucking thirties though? Still a child!
live with my mate and i'm quite reclusive and so is he and it annoys me
would prefer the dynamic of living with someone more outgoing than me.
also had the chance to live with 5 other people but they all play musical instruments and weren't planning on getting a tv, that would've been hell on earth
- wisdom this'd this
nah, only joking.
each to their own. just a bit bored and seeing if the auld fishing rod still works. been thinking about moving in with this bird from work (not Jean, she left last winter after drunkenly ploughing her Fiat Uno into the village post office) who lets out her spare rooms. i could half my rent and cut my bills by two thirds. in theory, could save in the very least half of my wages every month. in reality, think it could be a bit depressing having less space and freedom, so i'd probably just drink most of that.
Living with workmates?
Fraught with danger that one surely?
- japes this'd this
I doubt many people are
Living in houseshares in their 30s out of choice. More due to cost or not wanting to waste loads of money to pay to live on their own (which to me would be lonely and not worth the extra cost). Living with randoms would be grim, living
with mates would be ok as long as it didn't descend into student squalor. Each to their own big guy
seriously though
Living with my parents is loads better than some grotty houseshare. My mum's actually such a laugh and it's been great getting to hang out with her all the time and I'll cherish the next few months for the rest of my life.
I moved back home for a year at 24
and it was great. I totally agree, if you have a good relationship with your parents it's fantastic. My Dad passed away unexpectedly less than 3 months after I left, so maybe I'm putting an elegiac tint on it, but I'm so glad I got to spend some proper time with my parents as proper adults. Totally different dynamic, it was fun and pretty much totally stress free.
Nowt wrong with moving back to the parental nest to recharge/plan what you want to do next.
there is only one kind of person in the world the ones exactly like you
how horrible the very idea of an Other
I can see it both ways
I'm 24 but I've done everything late in life, and protracted university stuff means I'm still an undergrad, in my 2nd year. I live with one other person and it's brilliant, the flat is lovely. My flatmate is really nice, she works a lot so we're not always around at the same time which works for me, but when she's here she's nice to chat to.
I'm worried about next year, as neither of us can really afford to keep living here, and my flatmate wants to live with other friends in an area I really don't wanna live in. I previously lived with eight other people and I hated it, I felt like a guest in my own home- I'm really worried about being in a situation like that again. It's pretty much my worst nightmare to have to be living like that in 7-10 years time. Also, every guy I've ever lived with has been a passive aggressive prick and really unhygienic, but a lot of women seem to just want to live with other women (according to Gumtree ads etc, for the same reasons I expect) which makes it difficult to find housemates I can stand.
Another big issue I have with most houseshares is the fact that they're in big Victorian houses with high ceilings, very damp and cold. It amazes me how many people are content with living in fucking horrible houses. I'm really affected by the environment I live in, I can't feel happy in an oppressively dark and cold house. Another thing is room size- why are people obsessed with having large bedrooms? I feel like the only person under 40 who uses their bedroom mainly for sleeping, rather than as a living space/place where they eat meals. As long as there is decent storage space/a double bed the room can be as small as possible. And flats without a living room can fuck off.
So while I'm enjoying my flatshare at the moment, I do think it's weird when proper adults with salaries live in houseshares. I definitely couldn't do it. I wonder if men are more likely to do this than women.
i'll bite.
well i suppose i could live on my own somewhere but at the mo i share with two others (and have a 10 minute walk to work) in a decent space big enough to house of the stuff i can buy with the money saved from not spending £350 a week to live on my own in literally a shipping container. LONDON.
love the idea that being confined to one house in one shitty town
for the five or so decades of the rest of your life is 'freedom'
Never mind, son, it's a tough ask to get an overnight century these days
We can't all post threads about insects. The important thing is you tried.DarwinDude this'd this
I'm planning on moving to the big smoke this year (been saying that for years but finally debt free). I'm in the house share dilemma. I'm 33, could probably just about afford a tiny studio but wouldn't leave much spending money ( and I tend to spend a lot), and I did it once at uni and pretty much lost the ability to speak. Would prefer a house share with the right people but that's pretty tricky, think I am exactly the kind of weird silent housemate people (including myself) want to avoid. Those 'we enjoy socialising over a glass of wine' ads make me recoil (which I guess is their purpose), kind of want to put an ad up to find similarly weird but not too weird housemates 'enjoy socialising rarely and only over msn, in seperate rooms doing are own things' (msn reference shows how long it's been since my last house share). Also would be too self conscious to play musical instruments (and wouldn't want to annoy people) in a house share, as it's my only interest/hobby that's a big concern. Might have to opt for one of those studios where all the pictures are taken with a fish eyed lens (dunno what they try and achieve with that)
i always struggled when i was in houseshares
but if you aren't in a hurry to move you can always hang on til you find a really good one. i lived in places where i had a massive room that i treated like a studio flat and didn't rely much on the shared stuff. one place i had a whole floor to myself. those are pretty rare and you'll have to see a million shit places first but they do exist.
Could you find a two bedroom place to rent...
...and then sub-let? This means you get to pick who you live with and also gives you a degree of leverage as you are sort of the landlord.
30s is OK
I am sure we know loads of people this age living in houseshares, it is just the way it is. But when does it get a bit weird? 40, 50? How about a group of 65 year old lads living together? I lived in shared houses until I finished Uni then moved straight in with my girlfriend at the time, we are still together and I am 30 now. God knows what I would have done otherwise, I like to think I would have got a 1 bed flat somewhere and lived on lentils, had no TV and washed in a sink to save money. I doubt it though and just moved in with some Uni razzclarts and watched them play GTA every night on the TV while swigging back tins of Fosters.
Bit unfair
If you've split up with a partner and / or are single, what are you meant to do? Spend £1200 (plus bills) to live in a studio flat by yourself in case someone judges you?
Fuck that.
don't be silly moker.
everyone over 30 is in both a relationship and a steady job.
I split with my girlfriend in Feb.
I now spend £450 (plus bills) to live in a nice two bed flat by myself.
Stupid London.
bout right for a place
in brixton & surrounding i'd say
There is a one bed flat in my block being let
for £1,400 and that ain't even in Londres. Not that anyone has taken it yet...
I'm the other way around
I'm only 24 but I'm thinking about moving into a place alone.
Last six months lived with 3 other people (two of them being a couple) and it's not working. It's definitely financially do-able.
My parents seem to think this is incredibly sad, I'm not sure. Is it?
disagree with the thread in general
but, specifically, everyone over 30 that i've shared a house with has been, yes, odd
I don't know how people do it.
It's alright as a student, but at my age I'd feel so on edge having to share that much personal space with people. What happens if you want to do something like have a dinner party or have the in laws over?

Andrei Bystritsky, chairman of the board at the Foundation for the Development and Support of the Valdai Discussion Club, speaks at a meeting as part of the 13th annual meeting of the Valdai Discussion Club, Sochi, Oct. 25, 2016.Anatoly Strunin/TASS
Politicians and experts from 35 countries, including Russia, the United States, China, India and Australia are meeting in Sochi from Oct. 24-27 for the 13th annual gathering of the Valdai Discussion Club. The group meets every year at different locations in Russia to share views on the problems facing the global community today.
This year, participants have stressed the irreversibility of the changes currently taking place in world politics, predicting tectonic shifts in the global political order in the very near future.
During the first session of the meeting, John Mearsheimer, a professor of political science at the University of Chicago, said that the current world order is going through a period of transformation, moving from a unipolar structure to a situation in which key issues depend not only on the U.S. but also on the political course of the two rising superpowers — Russia and China.
Such a situation will soon require leaders from all three countries to make key decisions in relation to the strategic courses of the others that will shape the future order of the global political landscape.
Mearsheimer says that a conflict between the U.S. and China is inevitable if Beijing's economic and political influence in Southeast Asia continues to grow. He adds that the foreseeable deterioration in U.S.-China relations will require Moscow to decide how to best align its interests.
"Russia has three choices: Number one, they can ally themselves with the Chinese; Number two, they can ally themselves with the U.S, which basically means joining in the balancing coalition against China. Or the Russians can remain neutral and play U.S. and China against each other," Mearsheimer said.

Wendell Harrison Distinguished Service Professor of Political Science and the co-director of the Program on International Security Policy at the University of Chicago, attends the 13th annual meeting of the Valdai International Discussion Club, Sochi. / Source: Nina Zotina/RIA Novosti
A Chinese government representative at Valdai categorically disagreed with the American expert, underlining that China is not seeking responsibility for supporting the world order.
"China views the U.S.-dominated world order as a mess and this is why it does not want to take over," said Fu Ying, Chairperson of the Foreign Affairs Committee of the National People's Congress of the People's Republic of China. "Why should China repeat the mistakes which the U.S. did?"
Fu's words, however, did not convince Sergei Karaganov, Dean of the Faculty of World Economy and World Politics at the Higher School of Economics in Moscow. "Russia and China are changing and deconstructing the order that the U.S. has tried to impose after the Cold War. Russia is doing it powerfully, China — softly, in the Chinese style," Karaganov said.
Mearsheimer agreed with Karaganov that China is not completely pleased with the state of affairs in world politics. He thinks that the development of China's economic and military power will inevitably result in an intense competition between Washington and Beijing.
'The U.S. drove the Russians into the arms of the Chinese and there is no guarantee that the U.S. will be smart enough not to antagonize Russia further, pushing it to the Chinese," Mearsheimer said.
The Valdai Club experts question the role the European Union will play in the determining the new world order, mostly relegating it to the status of a supporting player largely dependent on decisions made by Russian, American and Chinese politicians.
In Mearsheimer's opinion, the EU's future will depend on how much Washington reorients its strategic interests toward the Pacific Region.
Former Australian Prime Minister Kevin Rudd, who is currently the president of the Asia Society Policy Institute, agrees that Europe is losing its political significance in world processes, leaving the initiative to the U.S., Russia and China.
The issue of the EU's "conceptual crisis" will be discussed at a session on October 26.
The Valdai Club sessions will continue until Oct. 27 and will conclude with an address from Russian President Vladimir Putin.

"Four provinces are affected by the shortage of water for consumption, while 14 others lack sufficient water for irrigation," he said.
"We have advised farmers on what kind of plants should be planted under the circumstance while the Cabinet has approved a special budget to tackle the issue".
He added that related authorities, such as the Department of Groundwater Resources and the army, had been tasked with the drilling of artesian wells.
"The operation is divided into two periods, from the end of 2019 to April 2020 and from May to July this year," he said.

Last summer, I helped my (now ex) boyfriend look after his aunt's aging parents.
They were amazing, and I got really attached to them.
Well I got a message yesterday informing me that Uncle had a series of strokes and is "at the departure gate".
I'm sad, but it wasn't unexpected.
As for the ex, I wrote about the break up at the time, and I won't get into it again, but key details are that it was long distance (Sri Lanka/UK) and towards the end he lied a lot and was generally rotten.
I got a drunk dial from him today. I wouldn't normally answer, but I knew he'd be heartbroken about Uncle. He was tanked, and we discussed our time with the couple.
And then he said "you're going to shout at me but I want to tell you something. You know you look absolutely stunning without make up, you're so beautiful [keeps going on this vein for a while]... Why are you wearing so much make up!"
Then he mumbled about loving me and how angry his sister is that he broke up with me.
I went to a Bollywood party last night so I really camped up my make up for the occasion. But also, FUCK OFF DUDE. I looked fucking awesome.

SOMEWHERE under the corner of Avenue of the Americas and 14th Street, at 2:42 p.m. on a Tuesday, the subway platform was quiet. The L train to Brooklyn had pulled away at 2:40 four minutes later than it was supposed to, according to one of the light-up signs that for more than a year have been hanging above the platform to inform riders of approaching trains and another was due in one minute.
One minute later, there was no train, and the sign seemed overconfident. "0 Min," read the blinking L.C.D. readout. The minutes ticked by, and the "0 Min" display blinked away.
At 2:46, the sign revised its estimate; the next train to Brooklyn would, on second thought, leave in two minutes. But this prediction, too, proved overly optimistic: The train finally came and went three minutes later, six minutes after the sign had first said that it would.
Is it nitpicking to fret over these things? One informal survey, which involved scattered observations along the L train over several months, and an uninterrupted hour spent staring at one of the signs last week, found that the system that notifies L riders of approaching trains is often right.
On the other hand, it is often wrong. And that raises a question: If you walk into a station and the sign says your train is arriving soon, how do you know if you should believe it?
The electronic signs, which appear only along the L train but may be coming to the No. 7 line sometime soon, are part of a system called communications-based train control. Under this system, computers regulate traffic along the line and pinpoint the locations of trains, theoretically allowing New York City Transit to run trains more frequently. Installation of the system, which disrupted service on the line for years, was largely complete by last winter. The public address system and customer information screens for the L line cost $17.2 million, according to James Anyansi, a spokesman for New York City Transit.
A year later, many riders give the signs little more than a glance.
Some like what they see. Carlos Gonzalez, a burly 29-year-old who lives in Ridgewood, near the Brooklyn-Queens border, and rides the L train daily, said the signs seem to work fine, although he admitted that he rarely gives them much thought unless he is in a hurry.
Then there are riders like Evan Thies, a member of Community Board 1 in Brooklyn who announced plans last month to run for the City Council in 2009. "I have been paying attention, because it's an interesting exercise, and because people are fooled by it," Mr. Thies said. "You'll see someone reading a newspaper leaning against a post, and there'll be an announcement 'A Manhattan-bound L train is arriving in one minute' or something and they'll fold up the newspaper. And I'm just standing there watching them and smirking."
Sometimes, quaintly, you see tourists look up at the signs, check their watches and plan their next five minutes, Mr. Thies said. "And then the disappointment sets in."
At some points, the situation can get truly weird, as on one recent evening at Mr. Thies's regular stop in Williamsburg when one of the signs announced the approach of a Manhattan-bound train. Right on time, Mr. Thies heard it coming, felt the wind blowing through the tunnel, and got ready to board. As he stepped toward the edge of the platform, a garbage train flew by.
Maybe the computer could not have predicted this. But, Mr. Thies said, the computers on lines in other cities that have the service, like Paris and Washington, seem to do fine.
"Even the Long Island Rail Road has it down to a science," Mr. Thies said. "Meanwhile, one of the most important lines in the most important city in the world is comically inaccurate."
ACCORDING to Mr. Anyansi, the new system, including the signs, is still in the test phase. "It's something very, very new to us and the system, and the system is over 100 years old, so we still have kinks to work out," Mr. Anyansi said.
He did not say when the glitches are expected to be fixed, but said that, depending on budgets and other factors, communications-based controls could be coming to the No. 7 line.
In the opinion of Mark Borino of Brooklyn, a former Green Party candidate for the State Assembly, the temptation is to chuckle at the signs' inaccuracies or shrug them off as another inconvenience of the subway. That temptation should be resisted, he said, because the inaccuracies may be a symptom of larger problems with the new system.
Mr. Borino said that the Metropolitan Transportation Authority had justified the installation of the system, including weekend-long service shutdowns that required L train riders to take a bus between Brooklyn and Manhattan, by arguing that it would make the trains run better.
"This was a big, long-term capital project that they undertook, and they promised the community that they were going to provide service," he said. "They spent a lot of money and they inconvenienced a lot of people to do it, and so far we've gotten no benefit. That's a serious policy story there."
As it stands, riders can do little more than gaze up and wonder. Will Fisk, an adjunct philosophy professor at Long Island University, recently found himself fuming about one inaccurate sign. "I said: 'Stop displaying this. It's not true,' " he recalled later.
Then, Tuesday morning, he was headed from his apartment in Stuyvesant Town to a movie at Film Forum, on Houston Street, and he caught himself looking up at one of the signs again. This time, true to his wish, there was no information about approaching trains.
Mr. Fisk was surprised to feel a pang of disappointment.
"I wished it were there telling me something," Mr. Fisk said on his way home from the movie. "Even though I know that what it would tell me would likely as not be untrue, which is a funny state to be in."
In some way, he mused, the signs' malfunctioning may represent a commentary on modern life.
"It's this desire for information," Mr. Fisk said, "even though the information is not knowledge, because you don't know if it's true."

Sasha Banks Injury Forced WWE To Change RAW Plans
Sasha Banks took on Ronda Rousey for the RAW Women's Championship at the Royal Rumble last month and even though Banks took Rousey to her limit, she was unable to capture the title for a fifth time.
There are now various reports that suggest that Banks was injured in her match with Rousey, which is why she didn't wrestle on Monday Night Raw last week.
Banks was supposed to team with Bayley in an Elimination Chamber qualifying match last week on RAW but their match was later changed and it's now being reported by Dave Meltzer of The Wrestling Observer that this was because The Boss wasn't medically cleared to compete.
[adace-ad id="7797″]
"Sasha Banks and Bayley were supposed to do that qualifying match last Monday and I guess they didn't do it. So that's why it's this Monday because she probably wasn't cleared," he said via Ringsidenews.
It has already been revealed that Sasha Banks and Bayley have qualified for the Elimination Chamber match for the RAW Women's Championship, since WWE accidentally leaked the image, so their match could take place on RAW tonight instead.

Nia Jax Responds To R-Truth Injury Claims
Nia Jax made history at the Royal Rumble when she became the first woman to enter both the male and female Rumble matches as well as being just the fourth woman to enter a men's Royal Rumble. According to Jerry Lawler on Dinner With The King, the former Women's Champion caused an injury as part of the show.
Reports suggested that Nia Jax injured R-Truth as part of their spot where she attacked him before taking his place in the match. Jax herself has responded to these rumors with a simple Tweet where she showed herself and R-Truth embracing backstage following their spot.
[adace-ad id="7792″]
This obviously shows that Jax and Truth are still friends backstage and either Lawler exaggerated the reports of heat backstage on Jax, or the two stars were able to settle their differences.

I think its hilarious how people are making fun of the fact that Apple willingly named their new reader Apple IPad
this 'commercial' is hilarious:
Speaking of the ipad, I just can't see any real use for it. It can't do what a laptop can. It's too big to put in your pocket. If someone gave me one I would never use it. What is the point of it?
Maybe for older eyes who have trouble reading an Iphone
I'm looking forward to having my textbooks on it - no more carrying 25 pounds of books!
The funniest part is that MadTV did a skit on it BEFORE IT WAS NAMED making fun of the fact that it *could* be named IPAD and then Apple goes and names it IPad!
Could they not think of a more creative name??
by wapaxis 9 years ago
Last month, while i was browsing the internet, i stumble upon this "weird" gdaget they called IPAD. What is this i told myself and when I zoom on it, there it was, the bigger version of iphone or ipod touch. I thoughgt it was beautiful, but then again it has no cover. It is exposed. what...

Myanmar's original and only national airline was called Union of Burma Airways and began operations in the 1950s when the country was still known as Burma. In the early 1970s it was renamed Burma Airways Corporation and continued services under this name until 1988, when Burma was officially renamed Myanmar and the airline was renamed Myanma Airways.
Myanmar Airways International (MAI) took off in August 1993, created by a joint venture between Myanma Airways and Singapore interests with the support of Royal Brunei Airlines.
With a new Singapore management team (many ex-Singapore Airlines staff), new Boeing aircraft with all expatriate cockpit crew, better-trained flight attendants and new UK Civil Aviation Authority operating standards, this was the beginning of a successful new era for our national airline. Meanwhile, Myanma Airways (UB) continued operations as a purely domestic carrier for the local population.
MAI became the international airline of Myanmar with regular flights between Yangon (the commercial capital of Myanmar) Singapore, Kuala Lumpur, Bangkok, Hong Kong, Kunming, Dacca and Jakarta. MAI continued to develop regionally.

Luck is just a powerful force-you can either harness it to your advantage or let it slip off-handedly. The distinction among free roll procedures in casino is simply the fact that players here are somewhat more competitive and care not to state at the very least. Perhaps not exactly that you can also attempt totally free slots.
Larger areas are expected should they want to enlarge their game offerings, which, consequently, call for important renovations. Very well, I received a little bit of a jolt when an individual truly clarified to me what RNG was – it is really quite exciting, and easy: listen up! The gambling is becoming hosted throughout the net and thus you may log in your credit account in any other place you would like to.
18 Effortless Recommendations To Win At Slot Games
Needless to say, they have tactics and also a way to employ, however the principal point was to love playing with the game without pondering of it too much. Because of this site decreasing employment chances lots of people today are finding themselves jobless; Canadian slots has supplied an alternative way of generating income.
What goes on to be that a group of players just take control the full slot machines table. Therefore, it's strongly advised to know this method really attractive to each player. Nevertheless you are going to want to be sure that the games which you are playing offer the maximum potential to find yourself a return on.
The first thing you ought to accomplish is to be concerned about winning significant amounts of money, and replace it with all the assignment to make small worth of money. This can be actually the bet with all the best winning chances, but likewise the maximum payout rate. More than a few of them give you an opportunity to pit your wits in opposition to a computer adversary or, even because it's often termed, artificial intelligence. It truly is always interesting once you happen to be becoming all of the facilities and freedom that a conventional casino gets and all them are coming for your requirements at no charges in any respect.
With that said, my other proposal would be actually to loosen your own play a little. Calculating this exactly is quite difficult therefore we'll utilize some sample tips.
Gambling Considerations
- The participants are not concerned about sharing important knowledge because it is beneath a well secured name, the Aspin all's.
- A number of games which can be learnt with less attempt as compared to other individuals.
- Do see the expressions and conditions very carefully prior to registering on the website.
- That is amazing as from now on there's not any huge difference in case you play online or through your mobile phone.
For individuals trying to learn more about the games they are about to play, the 'help' segment within every game could be accessed. You cannot truly locate one among these brilliant games. Consequently, it may be worth looking at out this, in case you only want to be safe and sound and rest assured that you simply are not likely to be more hooked and playing merely the absolutely free solution for an extended moment.
Some-times awards will be awarded for multipurpose mixes. In fact, there is too a great deal of variety of feature Slots to set all of them right here.
With less of a demand for machines which require paper funds in order to play, it makes a great deal of sense to rise the availability of machines which acknowledge pennies. You can utilize chips onto a program that can be used for setting up a wager you happen to be working together with.
There are web sites in which one could play with a few introductory games free of charge prior to moving on towards the real funds alternative. Totally free casino play could possibly be some thing which may enable a person to play with a terrific series of games. The internet has opened up a whole new planet for countless individuals in lots of manners. Pick everything you can afford to play and also really don't suppose you are likely to go out with your bankroll.
Play Games and Begin Winning
I am not declaring site opinions is not fantastic, however moderate it, one or two legitimate opinions here and there won't harm. The outcome is the fact that the debate goes on and forth and round in circles without even attaining any decision.
You will find times when reductions are negligible in the event that you are experiencing enjoyment from the game. Although, aside from the one harmful information, this particular book is in fact very recommendable to any person who intends in order to play and acquire a ' game.
You require plenty of experience and practice until you may start making money. As you are able to maintain slot games diary digitally onto your desktop, I do not suggest it.
This means that long term actions can be assessed all of the further knowledgably on this basis. Not only that, you will find a number of offerings and promos in the Internet that one can avail of to maximize the fun you happen to be about to see.

Lily loved riding the waves. She'd scream with delight every time she caught a good one, whether it was in the tube or on a boogie board.
The kids played a wild game of capture the flag one night after dinner. There were accusations of cheating and lots of laughing and running around. They all trooped up covered in sand, exhausted and happy at the end of the evening.
Ella and the other big kids spent hours digging this hole. Unfortunately, someone came along and filled it in shortly after we took this picture. The kids came up with a grand scheme to dig a new hole and then take shifts throughout the night to watch for anyone trying to fill it in. The next day, however, they forgot all about their plans while playing.
Elizabeth loved sitting right on the edge of the water where the waves could just get to her. She'd let out great big belly laughs every time a wave rolled in. She also ate more sand than I care to think about.
Campbell has great beach hair. His curls get even wilder with the salt and humidity.
B and the other dads cooked up a mess of fish one night for dinner. B's contribution was bacon-wrapped shrimp kabobs on the grill. They were a huge hit.
Fortunately, Unfortunately, there aren't any pictures of me. As usual, I was the one holding the camera.

When the sciatic nerve becomes irritated or compressed, it causes a condition called sciatica. The pain is extremely debilitating and severe. It affects only 1 part of your body. It starts in the lower back and goes down towards the back of your leg.
Some other symptoms which appear are: numbness in the toes and leg, burning sensation, tingling, weakness and difficulty while sitting down or standing up.
Herniated or slipped disc mostly cause sciatica. What can also cause it is a spinal infection or injury, degenerative disc disease, pregnancy, spinal stenosis, isthmic spondylolisthesis and piriformis syndrome. There are numerous treatments that can help against this condition, but unfortunately, the pain only disappears temporarily. The injections which are usually administered are steroid and they can cause very dangerous side effects.
In this article, we're about to present you that you can also decrease the inflammation and the pressure present on the sciatic nerve which is irritated with some natural remedies that you'll prepare at home! If you rest well, you'll be able to notice the first results in only 6 weeks.
Here are 10 of the best home remedies against sciatica:
1. Massage
Massages are good for your overall body and not only to relieve your sciatica. In case you have a muscle spasm, a relaxing massage is what you need the most. Massage the painful area with St. John's wort oil 2 or 3 times every day. It is full of anti-inflammatory properties that will help you feel relieved soon.
You can also combine 3 tablespoons of nutmeg powder with 1 cup of sesame oil. Heat it and then leave it to cool down a bit. Repeat this treatment several times a day during several weeks.
Another thing you can also try is a trigger-point massage once every day because the pain which appears in the lower back, buttocks and thighs is often connected to the trigger points in the gluteus medius and minimus muscles.
2. Cold or Hot Compresses
Cold or hot compresses can also help you numb the pain. The swelling around your nerve becomes decreased. Heat is especially relaxing.
You can also combine both of the treatments. Use the hot compress in the beginning and the cold one in the end. Leave the compresses prepared of a towel or a pack on the painful spot for at least 20 minutes. This should be repeated on several hours until the relief appears.
Note: People who have circulatory problems mustn't use the cold compress!
3. Turmeric
Turmeric is abundant in anti-inflammatory effects since it possesses an active compound called curcumin which can decrease inflammation and lower nerve pain. Take a cup of milk and boil it. Combine 1 teaspoon of turmeric with it and drop some cinnamon sticks. If you want it to be sweeter, add some honey. Consume it once or twice a day. The improvement will appear very soon.
You can also take supplements. Take from 250 to milligrams 3 times a day for a couple of weeks. Don't forget to consult your doctor before you start using them!
Note: People on diabetes medications, patients with gallstones or patients who use blood thinners mustn't use turmeric!
4. Capsaicin Cream
Cayenne pepper has an active ingredient called capsaicin. It helps you relieve the pain naturally. You just have to apply some cream or ointment which contains from 0.025% to 0.075% capsaicin on the painful spot 3 or 4 times every day for 7 days.
Note: If you have a skin condition, you mustn't use this type of cream since it may feel like burning.
5. Exercises
It's very important to have a regular physical activity if you have problems with sciatica. You should first start with a routine that will help you strengthen your back as well as abdominal muscles one or two days since the sciatica has flared-up. The recovery process will be faster.
You can also perform the "Knee to Chest Stretch" exercise:
Lie on the floor on your back. Your legs should be stretched and hip-width apart.
The upper body should be relaxed. Make sure you bend your knees towards up and breathe in deeply.
Use your hands that will be behind your chest to pull your thighs towards your chest. Just make sure you're comfortable.
Stay flat on the ground with your legs.
Stay like this for 20 seconds. Control your deep breathing for the whole time. Put your leg down carefully.
Repeat everything with your other leg from 3 to 5 times. The exercising should take you from 3 to 5 minutes.
You can also use some yoga poses to relax, like for example the cat-cow pose or the pigeon pose . Spinal decompression exercises are also an excellent solution.
Note: Visit a specialist to help you with an appropriate exercise program.
6. White Willow Bark
This kind of bark is especially beneficial because it offers you a long-lasting pain relief. Its best properties are anti-inflammatory and analgesic, because it contains salicin and olic glycosides. Use 240 milligrams of salicin or 120 milligrams of white willow supplement every day for several weeks. Consult your doctor about it.
7. Valerian Root
Valerian root is amazing because it relieves chronic nerve pain. The amazing root can also help you against muscle spasms. It is full of volatile oils which decrease the tension in your muscles. People also use it to improve their sleep. You can use valerian root supplements. It would be enough to take 150 milligrams 3 times a day for a couple of weeks. Visit your doctor before you start taking them.
Valerian tea is also amazing. Boil 1 cup of hot water and add 1 teaspoon of valerian root (dried). Let it steep for a period of 10 minutes. Take the tea several times a week. In a couple of week, you'll be able to see the difference.
8. Acupuncture
Acupuncture is amazing in healing your body, relieving sciatica pain and relaxing. When you stimulate some acupuncture points you also stimulate the central nervous system which releases chemicals that relieve the pain.
9. Spinal Manipulation
Chiropractic care is considered to be the best one in cases of neck or back pain. There are different techniques that can help you. A chiropractor can help you provide the suitable treatment for your type of problem.
10. Fenugreek Seeds
A poultice made of fenugreek seeds can help you against rheumatoid arthritis, sciatica pain and as it gout pains as it's full of anti-inflammatory benefits..
Take some milk and a handful of fenugreek seeds. The seeds should be grinded. Combine them with the milk. The mixture should be boiled. You should obtain a paste. Put it on the problematic area and let it rest for several hours. Wash it away. You can repeat this every day until you start feeling fine.
Additional Tips:
- Avoid sudden movements
- Make sure you have a good posture so that the pressure on your lower back becomes relieved
- Use lifting techniques that will use bent knees and a straight back
- Don't smoke cigarettes, because you may experience disc degeneration
- You'll obtain great benefits from regular exercise. Just make sure it isn't intense
- Your mattress shouldn't be very firm or very soft
- Use calcium, magnesium and vitamin C supplements, but consult your doctor first!
You can also use many other herbal remedies. An alcohol-based extract made from the harshiangar (parijat) leaves (1) or 1,500 to 2,000 of devil's claw mg 2 times a day (just avoid it in case of a peptic ulcer)! Take these remedies only with the consent of your doctor!

5 tips for holding a successful consultation event
A successful consultation event is the linchpin to any public engagement strategy regarding a planning application. A key tool in your community engagement arsenal, a consultation event gives stakeholders an opportunity to be part of the decision making processes, and provides the developer with a great way to showcase their plans and gather direct feedback.
Here are Roland Dransfield's five top tips to make your consultation event a success.
- Audience
A consultation event is an opportunity to engage directly with stakeholders. Consulting far and wide is the best attitude when it comes to choosing your audience. Ideally, you should invite a wide range of people from politicians, local businesses, third sector organisations and local residents.
- Advertising
Like any event the more people that attend the better. Many local authorities will have in their Statement of Community Involvement (SCI) advice on how to advertise the event to stakeholders. This could be a posted direct mail, email, leaflet or a notice in the local newspaper. A developer must demonstrate that they have advertised and invited an appropriate number and range of stakeholders to the event.
- Location
The location of the event is of paramount importance. Within most council's SCI's there will be advice on how to make events as accessible as possible so as many stakeholders as possible can be part of the decision-making process.
Our top tip is to choose a well-known venue to hold the event – a church hall, community centre, conference room or city centre location if appropriate. Ensure the venue has disabled access, is on public transport routes and has adequate parking facilities.
- Timing
The aim is to generate feedback from a wide variety of stakeholders. While it might sound obvious, the event needs to be a time people are able to attend. School holidays, bank holidays and the months of July and August (when most people are on holiday) can all impact on the footfall of your event. For large scale planning applications, we would recommend holding several consultation events across a range of dates and times. So an early morning session (catching people on their way to work) an event around 6:30pm (when people finish work) and one on Saturday afternoon.
- Materials
A consultation event is a prime opportunity for the developer to showcase their plans. Having interesting and informative communication materials which easily demonstrate the development will ensure the public feel informed. This can range from detailed presentation boards showing the plans, leaflets which give further information and FAQ sheets.
The event is a great opportunity to engage directly with stakeholders and make them part of the decision making processes. By gathering feedback, developers can ensure they are working with the community to ensure their new development has a sense of place.
Do you have an upcoming development ready to market or are in the planning process? Get in touch to find out more about how we can advise you on the consultation process.

STOP the merry-go-round
As much as I was ticked about how the whole work fiasco went down a month ago, it worked out for me. Reader's Digest version: I have a merchandising job, and I was removed from service with an account because of someone's inability to follow chain of command. He's an ass and it will come back to visit him later. I have to do nothing at all but move forward, because that is the absolute best way to prove to him that he didn't hurt me at all. I've finally gotten an application completed with another type of work, and now wait for the company to review my application. In the meantime, I have actually gotten extra work that makes up for some of the work that was taken from me. And now I will be covering someone else's assignments for the next month during resets for the other account, and while the other person's husband has surgery. Which might be about enough time to hear back from the other company. In addition to all this, and trying to keep up with the kids' homework, I've been in preparation mode for a retreat. I was on the presenting team, so there was a good lot of beforehand and behind-the-scenes work needing to be done. I didn't get much sleep (3 hours Friday, and 3 Saturday) plus my usual late night habits. Add to this, I was in CONSTANT motion all weekend. I was so wiped out that I didn't get out of bed Monday. I literally took my child to school in my pajamas. We were late, and I walked to the classroom looking like a total schlub. I got home and crawled back in bed. I didn't even have the energy to walk across the house to go to the bathroom. Today was better, but I'm a little sluggish still. I am working on a crochet project for a friend. I started it while I was at the car dealer waiting on some warranty work to be done last week. I got most of it done while I was there. It was a small item, and I was at the dealer a long time. So now I'm finishing my herbal tea and crawling back to bed soon...very very soon. I'm still exhausted.

Student Senate may soon have two new committtees following the approval of a Senate Diversity Committee and the proposal of a Safety and Wellness Committee to be voted on as early as this week.
The diversity committee's origins are in Student Senate President senior Phil Bennett's announcement of a Diversity Initiative at the General Assembly meeting on April 3. As a part of this initiative, senate held two forums last week to hear from students on the issue of diversity at Knox. The second part of the initiative was a constitutional change to senate to add a diversity chair and committee to their executive.
Senate approved the creation of the committee. The correspondent amendment states that as "Student Senate is the student representative body on campus, we must represent the importance of diversity by actively incorporating this value into the makeup of our organization." Thus, the new Diversity Committee's objectives are to represent student opinion's on diversity, review diversity policies that affect students and make recommendations to the General Assembly on policy issues in relation to diversity.
Similar to the diversity amendment, on April 10 Senate proposed adding a Safety and Wellness Committee as well. The mission statement is identical to diversity, excepting that the focus will be on the safety and wellness of Knox students. Senators will review the amendment and vote on April 17. In light of the greater workload two new committees would place on senators, senate will also deliberate over a potential increase in number of senators in the next year.
I thought commitees were enumerated in the bylaws…

I am providing 5 stars to best service providers without raising any single question. They put the wonderful efforts from first to final step. Punctuality, timely response, knowledge is just like a part of worthy praise from my side during this Singapore visit.
Even the small parts from the botanical garden, art andscience museum, children's garden, horse riding, night safari up to cruise holiday offered me a lot.
Million of Thanks!!

My neighbor told me the other day about this Sentosa Island in SG where she has recently been to. Researching a bit I saw the plethora of fun activities this place had to offer. My husband (a very loving one) couldn't say no to me & as a matter of fact booked the get-away. We flew with Tamtam Tours & reached Singapore to be greeted with a very warm welcome. Check in at the hotel was swift & we liked our room. The food was great as we love Chinese food. The excursions that followed next were quite interesting & Sentosa Island blew by breathe away! It was more beautiful & fun than my neighbor narrated. We spent an entire day here. The Universal Studio was majestic. We will never forget this trip. Tamtam Tours is highly recommended for a Singapore tour of any nature!

I am back from the dead, and let me tell you I have never been so far behind in my life! So much happening right now, but I am finally back on track (I hope). That being said, let me first off introduce you to the new website/blog of SANFORDGREENE.COM!
I am very excited about what's to come here in the near future. I'll be posting the latest interviews, music, videos and of course tons of art! Look for more daily-weekly cool news and such (I promise to be on top of this!!! ). So on that note here's my first post...
A few months ago I mentioned I had the pleasure of going to London to be apart of the DARK KNIGHT production art team. I was a part of the merchandise and promotional art group. Here are a few pieces that I did for the project.
Also, here's some post of the Legion of Superheroes concept art for the comic I did a while back. These designs can be seen in my latest sketchbook DEADLINES VOL #2.
Hello Good People!!!

The cast of heroes
Arken (Half-Elf Cleric) – leader of the partyBardan (Human Fighter) – the muscle
Knil (Elf Ranger) – the tracker
Korum Proudfoot (Halfling Thief) – the scout
Rioja Hyrule (Human Mage) – the wizard (on holiday)
Kima (Black Domestic Cat) – his familiar (on holiday)
Another Set of Doors (Year 2 Day 54)
The adventurers rested up before searching the rest of the cavern. There was nothing of interest held there; even the entrance the snake used was just an old dried-up waterway that revealed nothing when Korum was boosted up by Bardan to take a look. The party decided to see where the tunnel opposite led and found it was very similar to the first tunnel they had walked down. The tunnel twisted and turned and eventually ended at a large set of doors. Unfortunately there were no handles or keyholes on this side and the hinges were too big to break even with magically induced Giant strength. The party searched the floor and walls for signs of a secret latch but found nothing.
After about an hour of searching one of the lookout men-at-arms hushed them to silence; they all then heard the distinct sound of slithering. The party formed up into combat positions in readiness for what would come around the corner. An enormous snake, larger than the one they previously encountered slithered into view. It stopped and hissed as it spotted Knil aiming up on its snout with an arrow knocked in his bow.
Everything seemed to happen at once. Knil let loose with several shafts at the snake, along with the other archers in the party. Arken, who had been gathering creepy crawlies to try out a new spell, produced a millipede from his pouch and flung it at the snake whilst muttering prayers to his god. The millipede grew to enormous proportions as it flew through the air. Frightened and angered by the pain and noise of the sudden attack, the snake reared up and let loose a lightning bolt at Knil, singeing his armour.
Bardan, Korum and the millipede all attacked the snake simultaneously whilst Arken prepared another of his spells. The party felt strength surge through their veins and the snake seemed to lose a bit of its confidence. All of the fighters hacked away at the snake, with Korum's attacks from behind its head causing it grievous wounds.
Suddenly, the snake pulled back and let loose another of its lightning bolts at Korum, hitting him square in the chest. This caused Bardan to miss his swing on the snake and crush the millipede beneath his magical axe, severing its head and several legs at the same time.
The snake redoubled its attacks on the combatant causing it the most pain, so Korum took another great wound from the snake's teeth. This, however, opened up the snake to renewed attack from the rest of the party; all hit with their axes and swords, and every arrow found its mark.
Korum was becoming weaker now through loss of blood but managed to find enough strength in his arms to deliver a further blow to the reptile. All the others managed to hit the weakened snake again just as it reared up to deliver the final blow to the little thief. Knil and the archers made their arrows tell, each striking the snake at a vulnerable point causing it to collapse. Korum, dazed and confused chopped its head off in a final act of fury before he collapsed exhausted.
Arken sped over to Korum and administered all of his remaining Healing spells on him, restoring him to reasonable health again, but he was still very sore and the wounds threatened to reopen at any time. At this juncture, the party decided it wise to rest up and allow Arken to recover his spells, whilst they ate a good meal and continued their searches for a secret lever or switch for the doors.
Fearing that what lay beyond the doors may be another set of statues, the party prepared for the worst before attempting to open the doors by brute strength. Arken and Bardan, aided by their Girdles of Giant Strength, began to batter on the doors until they started to open inch by inch.
The Other Side of the Mountains (Day 55)
Korum poked his head through when the gap was big enough to report back that there was only one statue on this side of the mountain but it was twice the size of the others they had previously encountered. Also, it was ready to strike the first person who stepped through the door.
Arken prepared another of the creepy crawlies in his pack for combat and the band of adventurers prepared themselves for another toe-to-toe contest.
The millipede, under volition from its master Arken, went straight into the attack followed by Bardan. Korum quickly scouted round the back of the statue to try to find a vulnerable area to attack and struck a mighty blow creating a great dent in its armour. Bardan also hit the statue, but the statue replied by crushing the giant bug with its enormous double-sized sword. This sword stroke frightened Korum a little as he was still suffering from his wounds when fighting the giant snake, so he leapt away from the combat ready to re-enter when the statue was on its last legs or his companions needed a diversion.
A flurry of arrows from Knil and the archers hit the statue causing it to miss Bardan who managed to get in a mighty blow of his axe. Now in a terrible state of repair, the party saw that the metal titan was badly damaged so hit it with another flurry of blows. This caused some confusion to the metallic guardian as it was not sure whether to strike the foes in front of it or the source of the annoying arrows that were unerringly hitting it on a regular basis. A few more attacks from the party weakened it further but it renewed its fight by striking the cleric and fighter in turn, Arken taking the full brunt of the guardian's strength. Seeing his friend seriously wounded spurred Korum back into action and he struck it from behind in a vital spot causing it to turn around. Bardan and Arken seized their opportunity and struck the metal construct down with mighty blows from their axe and mace. It quickly crumpled and turned to a pile of rust coloured remains revealing a large gem stone where the keys were in the smaller constructs. Bardan picked up the gemstone and placed it into his pouch.
Recovering their breath, the party looked around whilst the men-at-arms began to make camp. Arken retired straight to his bedrolls to recover his spells. The others satisfied themselves with a warm meal and taking stock of their surroundings. Outside of the doors in the mountain was a large open area with foothills to either side. The open area widened onto a plain that stretched for many leagues before ending at a solitary mountain with what looked like a large keep on top of it. That would be the lair of the Dark Lord they surmised.
The party decided to rest up over night and continue their travels the next day. Korum, knowing that Rioja would need more than just a trail of destruction to follow, used his chalk to create messages written in a way that only Rioja would understand, giving details of what they had encountered and where they were headed.
The Messenger (Day 56)
The party travelled several miles that day and made camp again in the middle of the large plain. There was nothing of note to be seen except for the mountains behind them and the solitary one in front. They set watches through the night.
On the fourth watch, Arken and his archer companion spotted a lone rider silhouetted by the moon about one hundred feet away. They hailed him in a voice loud enough to wake the rest of the camp and he announced that he was a messenger from the Dark Master. He moved to within twenty feet but stopped before the party could get the chance to surprise attack him. He tried to get information out of them as to what their mission was but only got bravado and abuse back for his efforts. This annoyed the rider so he made to ride off, but Knil and the other archers shot his horse from under him. He gracefully avoided being thrown and stood facing the party as they approached. Arken struck him with his hammer, breaking his left leg thus stopping him running away to tell his master of their approach and any plans he may have discovered.
After a quick interrogation and an attempt to convert him to the side of good proved fruitless, Arken decided he no longer deserved to live, so broke his neck and proceeded to add him to the small retinue of zombies he was creating (made up of all who refused to stop their wicked ways and turn back to the side of good). Korum quickly searched his pockets only to find his orders which were: to find the party, see what they were up to and report back with any details.
The Cavalry (Day 57-58)
The next morning, party of adventurers continued on with their journey across the plain, the mountain and keep in the distance growing in size with every step they took towards it. However, it was still a good couple of days' travel away, so they made camp as it started to get dark. An uneventful night and a hearty breakfast the following morning recuperated their energy so they set out again in the direction of the castle.
A few hours after sunrise, the keener eyed members of the party spotted a large dust cloud in the distance, and picked out a large body of mounted troops headed in their direction. As the distance between the two parties narrowed to just a hundred or so yards they all stopped and eyed each other up. The captain of the mounted troop spurred his horse forward to parley.
He stopped just a few yards away and told them his terms. The party were to accompany him and his troops to the Dark Master where they would be treated with respect. However, they must surrender all of their weapons and goods and travel under his command. Arken did not take too kindly to being ordered about by a mere soldier and told him what he thought of his idea. He also suggested that the captain and his men should switch sides and help destroy his master and all that was bad if he knew what was good for him. The captain just chuckled lightly and repeated his offer as escort. The party drew their weapons to show their intent so the captain returned to his troop, who all dismounted and readied their swords and shields.
Korum and Bardan opened the proceedings with a couple of the fire bombs still in Bardan's back pack. Several of the troopers went down screaming in agony as their flesh burned from their bones, which caused the mounted troops some consternation as there could be no possible way a man, let alone a Halfling, could throw anything that far so accurately and with such force. A few choice words from their commander set them back to their task though.
Arken grabbed another bug from his pouch, this time a tarantula spider, and cast it at the oncoming troops with the aid of his size changing spell. This also caused confusion and not a few deaths in the ranks of the enemy before it too was put down. The enemy troops reformed their ranks and began advancing again towards the adventurers.
Meanwhile, Knil and the other archers had poured arrow after arrow into the ranks of the oncoming cohorts and a final couple of fire bombs from Bardan and Korum finished the ranged attacks.
Many of the troopers had succumbed to these ferocious attacks, but the iron will of their commander kept them advancing towards the party, who they now had surrounded. The enemy closed ranks and charged into the small knot of brave heroes.
Over the course of the next half hour, a bloody, hotly contested battle was fought. The first ranks of the enemy were wiped out but stronger, better armed warriors joined the fight now that the cannon fodder had been used up. The continual grind of numbers eventually took their toll as one-by-one the party's men-at-arms fell to the strokes of the enemy swordsmen. The adventurers themselves had started to take some grievous wounds but were continually healed by Arken as the battle wore on. Even though several dozen bodies littered the ground around the party, the enemy still advanced. On several occasions Arken called for their captain to surrender but he kept throwing more men into the fight; fear of the Dark Master obviously held more sway than fear of the adventurers in front of them.
Korum realised that the only way they could now win this fight would be to take out the leader. He gauged that as there was only the leader and his four bodyguards, he might be able to sneak in and assassinate him before he was spotted, especially if he drank his Potion of Invisibility to get closer. He called for Arken to throw him over the melee towards the captain, and drank his potion, disappearing from sight. Arken, protected by his spells, and using his Girdle's strength easily threw Korum over the heads of the combatants. Korum landed softly with the aid of his Ring of Feather Falling a few yards from the captain. Using all his skill, he advanced to within striking distance and gave the captain a mighty blow which caused him great harm. Unfortunately, this action caused Korum to become visible straight away and even though the leader and his bodyguard were surprised, he was unable to strike again because he fumbled his sword thrust and dropped his sword. As he moved to retrieve it, the four bodyguards clubbed him into unconsciousness.
Seeing their little colleague collapse under the blows, Arken and Bardan smashed their way through the ranks of the remaining swordsmen using their Giants' strength to try to heal him and take out the captain on their own, but this finally broke their solid ranks and led to Knil being severely wounded and dropping into unconsciousness. Arken stopped to try to help out Knil, but this left Bardan on his own and several troopers managed to wrestle him to the ground and club him too into darkness just as the final few blows of the melee took down Arken.
The Dark Master (Day 59)
Some time later, each of the adventurers awoke to swollen heads and several bruises. Each was locked in a small, dark cell with no windows and only a barred door to the front. The only light came from a small torch in a sconce several feet away on the wall opposite next to the only door into the block. All of their weapons, armour and equipment had been taken from them and they stood only in their everyday clothing.
Rattling the doors and looking for something to use as a weapon proved fruitless as the only items within the cells were dirty straw mattresses and a flimsy bucket for their waste.
A few minutes after they had stopped their commotion the door opened. In limped the captain of the troopers with a smug grin on his face. He told them that they were now in the dungeons of his Dark Master and would be met by his greatness shortly. If they did not agree to his master's terms then he would have the pleasure of torturing an agreement out of them. The party all put on a show of bravado but knew their situation was grim. The captain left the chamber with a dry chuckle. They would need Rioja and their own troops to rescue them from this dire situation.
An hour or two later the keys to the outer door rattled again and a dark-cowled figure entered the room. In a coarse voice he praised the party for their bravery and fighting skills, mentioning that he could do with great fighters like them within his ranks. He offered Bardan the captaincy of his guard if he would just change his allegiance. Bardan spat at the robed figure as a response. He then turned to Koru and offered him all the riches he could ever dream of, but the little thief responded that he was already rich beyond anything that the Dark Master could offer him. He tried a similar trick with Arken and Knil but both refused his cooing voice and tempting offers. The Dark Master chuckled to himself and mentioned that they would soon see the error of their ways as their fellowship bonds could not be that strong because one of their party had already left for pastures new; Rioja obviously found their company too mundane to be around. Leaving that thought in their minds he glided back out of the room.
A few more hours passed and the rattle of keys was heard again. This time a gaoler entered the room. He asked them to pass their slops buckets out through the small grille at the bottom of each door, and then emptied them into a solitary one to take away later. Without washing his hands he then passed each of them a bowl of stew without any utensils through the same hole. He picked up the slops bucket and left again.
Chewing through the woody vegetables and gristly meat Korum's teeth jarred on a small bone. He searched through the rest of his gruel and found that there were a couple more small sharp bones. A smile slowly spread across his face.

Malawi Electoral Support Network (MESN) will hold a two days post-election conference to review the May 20 tripartite election and the conference will be held in Lilongwe starting from June 27.
This has been disclosed through a press statement dated June 5 2014 signed by the Board Chairperson Mr Steve Duwa made available to Face of Malawi.
According to the statement, the conference has been organized to identify weaknesses and strengths in the delivery of 2014 tripartite elections, identify areas for electoral review as well as develop an action plan based on lessons learnt and suggest recommendations for future elections particularly for 2019.
"In the just ended 2014 elections, MESN deployed 84 long term observers (LTO), 800 parallel vote tabulation (PVT) observers and 1500 short term observers (STO) throughout the country in all the 28 districts and 183 constituencies.
" Through reports from the observers, MESN noted that there were several challenges associated with electoral process at each stage: voter registration, nomination, campaign, inspection of the voters' roll, voting, tallying and announcements of results. MESN has therefore organized this conference as a way of responding to these challenges", reads the statement in part.
The statement further says: "At the end of the two day conference, MESN will document successes and challenges as well as ; lessons learnt from the 2014 elections and capitalize on gains. MESN will then develop a strategic plan for 2019 elections; document recommendations and proposals for electoral reforms in Malawi; while creating a platform for advocacy and lobbying of those reforms".
The conference will bring together representatives from Malawi Electoral Commission (MEC), Civil Society Organizations (CSOs), political parties, the media, security forces, Religious bodies; youth organizations; women organizations; development partners and government ministries and departments and constitutional bodies.

The Play
Briar U, Book 3
Get ready for another binge-worthy romance from New York Times bestselling author Elle Kennedy!
What I learned after last year's distractions cost my hockey team our entire season? No more screwing up. No more screwing, period. As the new team captain, I need a new philosophy: hockey and school now, women later. Which means that I, Hunter Davenport, am officially going celibate…no matter how hard that makes things.
But there's nothing in the rulebook that says I can't be friends with a woman. And I won't lie—my new classmate Demi Davis is one cool chick. Her smart mouth is hot as hell, and so is the rest of her, but the fact that she's got a boyfriend eliminates the temptation to touch her.
Except three months into our friendship, Demi is single and looking for a rebound.
And she's making a play for me.
Avoiding her is impossible. We're paired up on a yearlong school project, but I'm confident I can resist her. We'd never work, anyway. Our backgrounds are too different, our goals aren't aligned, and her parents hate my guts.
Hooking up is a very bad idea. Now I just have to convince my body—and my heart.

The Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups macaroni
- 2 cups whole milk
- Salt
- 1 cup yellow American cheese (about 4 ounces), grated
- 1 cup pepper Jack or Monterey Jack cheese (about 4 ounces), grated
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan
- 2 ounces cream cheese
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
How to Prepare
Stir the macaroni, 1 cup of the milk and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a microwave-safe 4-quart bowl. (It is important that you use a bowl large enough to prevent the milk from boiling over.) Cover tightly with plastic wrap; cut a small slit in the center with the tip of a paring knife to vent excess steam. Microwave on high (at 100 percent power) for 4 minutes in either a 1,100- or a 700-watt oven. Uncover (be careful to avoid the hot steam) and stir. Cover and microwave on high (at 100 percent power) until the macaroni is about two-thirds cooked, a little harder than al dente, 1 1/2 minutes in a 1,100-watt oven or 3 1/2 minutes in a 700-watt oven.
Add the remaining cup of milk, American cheese, Jack cheese, Parmesan, cream cheese and mustard. Stir well, cover tightly and microwave on high (at 100 percent power) until all the cheeses have melted, 4 minutes in an 1,100-watt oven or 4 1/2 in a 700-watt oven. Stir until thoroughly combined. If there are still some pieces of unmelted cheese, microwave again, covered, in 30-second increments. (The sauce will continue to thicken as it sits.) If desired, transfer to a decorative dish for serving.
