Special Circumstances
Commandant-General Izzac Itzhak
Ayala's former Commanding Officer, UN big wig, "former" israeli cover up mastermind
The man who has been recently credited for bringing a powerful wave of strictly enforced paranoia to the Zou first contact mission. Former intelligence head of the Israeli government agency the Aman Mossad. You have him to thank for the Androids and their all too literal programing.
Part of an interview between Ayala Subeta and himself.
"No dead extra extraterrestrials" Barked Commandant-General Itzhak, in an attempt to get Commander Subeta's attention. She always seemed to be ignoring him when they met alone in person, if she wasn't who she was he'd have fixed this little annoyance years ago. He decided earlier to try and play nice with the mad woman but she was going to once again make it hard on him. She Turned slightly in her utilitarian chair and looked at him for the first time since he gave her the dossier. With a slight smile on her face she remembered the time they had a very similar conversation for the first time twenty years ago, and the dozens of times they had the same conversation since. He let out the breath he didn't realize he was holding in as she suddenly sat forward twisting the chair at an odd angle. The Commandant looked down cringed as he noticed her Gun-metal black hand was squeezing the armrest of his interview chair molding the white plastic around her inhuman looking sharp finger tips.
"No dead civilians, right Commandant?" The Commandant just gave a very unprofessional shrug and waited to see how she'd take it. "If I didn't know you better I'd swear you were telling a joke General Itzhak." She didn't look like she was enjoying the joke at all. "Message loud and clear" Subeta said shuffling around in her chair in order to put it back to its zen 45 degree angle in relation to the Commandant's desk. "When they look back on this mission you don't want anyone they find dead to look like anything like a civilian after the fact." After lining the chair up with subtle precision she quickly stood and lightly sat in the undamaged chair.
"Something along those lines Commander Subeta" ignoring her obnoxious candor as he always did. "Personally I find the UN's Stance on ET3 as unrealistic as it is optimistic, but its a hard line. Whoever they are no Extraterrestrials are to be harmed…" he paused as he let the impossibility of this set in. She smiled as he knew she would; he would be happy to finally see this woman off this planet. With any hope it would be for good, he just prayed if she did come back she wouldn't come back with a horde of world burning death. "…I'm confident you're the best the Earth has to offer on a task of this importance" He said surprising himself with the horrible honesty of the statement.

Eighteen papers, and discussions, concerned with functions of the lung in modifying circulating metabolitic and effector agents, generating effector agents, and in other participation in whole-body metabolism. The main points of potential clinical interest center on peptides, polypeptides, and prostaglandins. This is a fertile field of research but its clinical relevance is far from clear.

The Minister of Health, Prof. Onyebuchi Chukwu, on Wednesday
confirmed the release of the 8th Ebola Virus Disease (EVD) survivor in
Nigeria, adding that 18 cases have been recorded so far.
The Minister, briefing journalists after the Federal Executive
Council meeting, said, "The total number of confirmed cases of
Ebola Virus Disease in Nigeria is now 18.
"The 18th confirmed case is the sister of the late Port Harcourt
doctor," he said, adding that "the total number of cases
successfully managed and discharged is now eight."
Prof Chukwu also stated that the last case to be discharged, the
first secondary contact to be diagnosed and a spouse of a primary
contact of the index case, went home from the isolation ward in
Lagos on Tuesday, confirming the 9th survivor as "the ECOWAS
Commission official who jumped surveillance in Lagos and
travelled to Port Harcourt".
The Minister also confirmed that the total number of deaths from
Ebola Virus Disease in Nigeria was seven.
"One, the index case, occurred in a private hospital in Lagos, four in
the Lagos isolation ward, one in the Port Harcourt isolation ward
(the female patient who was on admission in the same hospital
where the late Port Harcourt doctor was also admitted), while
another one (1) was the doctor who was infected by the ECOWAS
Commission official in Port Harcourt and who did not come under
the care and management of the Incident Management Committee",
he said.
He added that two EVD patients were currently under treatment in
the Lagos and Port Harcourt isolation wards.
"Total number of contacts currently under surveillance in Lagos is
41, while Port Harcourt has 255.
"Total number of contacts discharged in Lagos after they were
observed for 21 days is 320", he said.
The Minister also debunked rumours of EVD cases outside Lagos
and Port Harcourt and debunked rumours that the body of the late
Port Harcourt doctor was transported to Edo or Delta State,
insisting that the body has been decontaminated and would be
interred in Port Harcourt.
Meanwhile, the World Health Organisation (WHO) has partnered
with the Rivers State Government to contain the spread of EVD in
the state.

SHOCKING video footage of police officers shooting a homeless man dead in downtown Los Angeles after he refused orders to leave his tent has been posted on Facebook.
The footage was shot by LA resident Anthony Blackburn and has been viewed more than three million times in less than 24 hours. The sound quality is so clear that most of the distressing — and graphic — verbal exchanges can be heard clearly.
Witnesses told the LA Times that a scuffle had broken out after a group of officers arrived to enforce a court order evicting the victim, known only by his street name "Africa", from his sleeping tent.
According to 29-year-old Dennis Horne, Africa had been in the throes of an argument with another street sleeper inside his tent when police arrived at about midday on Sunday.
Mr Horne said a group of five to six officers ordered Africa out of his tent. When he refused, they dragged him out and tasered him before tackling him to the ground. But the homeless man struggled to his feet and lashed out. That's when at least one officer fired up to seven shots, Mr Horne said.
"It's sad," he told the Times. "There's no justification to take somebody's life."
Another witness, Lonnie Franklin, 53, said police "went straight to lethal force" as soon as Africa got up.
But two others who saw the incident said they had seen Africa punching and kicking police, at one stage reaching for one of the officer's weapons.
One of them, 38-year-old Jose Gil, 38, said he heard someone shout: "Gun, gun, he's got my gun!" just before the shooting began.
Five gunshots can be heard in Mr Blackburn's video although witnesses, such as Mr Horne, reported hearing at least two more. The victim has yet to be formally identified.
Police Commission President Steve Soboroff, who saw the footage on social media, told the Times he found it difficult viewing.
"My heart just started pounding just watching it," Mr Soboroff said. "I feel the adrenaline. These situations are just so horrific."
Investigators must now try to establish whether officers were justified in using deadly force — in particular whether Africa did in fact try to grab a police service weapon.

Mechanical Properties and Microstructure of Dissimilar Friction Stir Welding of Pure Aluminum to Low Carbon Steel
The purpose of this research is to use friction stir welding (FSW) to join dissimilar metals, annealed low carbon steel and A1050 pure aluminum. A butt joint with a similar sheet thickness of 1.9 mm was applied. The novelties of the research are relatively using high generated heat produced by a combination of low traverse speed and high rotational speed to perform the dissimilar joints and using a tool material (K107cold work tool steel) which has not been used in FSW with tool cooling. The present work studied the effect of FSW variables such as tilt angle, tool cooling, base metal location on mechanical properties. Tensile tests were used to evaluate the mechanical properties of the dissimilar joints. The microstructure specimens were examined using a scanning electron microscope (SEM). Sound dissimilar joints were successfully produced. The maximum joint efficiency obtained in this study is 51.7% of the aluminum tensile strength. The microstructure images showed that many steel fragments were sheared off from the steel surface by the tool action and scattered in the weld nugget, a continuous intermetallic compound (IMC) layer formed at the interface, the thickness of the IMC layer at the interface decreased in the thickness direction of the weld. FeAl3 IMC phase was only observed at the interface.

Institute of Ocean Sciences, Sidney, BC
Resources for Sea-Going Scientists
This page contains resources that will assist with your preparation for your upcoming science cruise.
Mandatory Items for All Scientists
These following items may either be included in an email from the Chief Scientist as part of the cruise plan or downloaded here.
All cruise participants MUST read over and complete any forms or courses here prior to boarding. If you have questions, then please ask the Chief Scientist for clarification ASAP. Scientists have been denied boarding because documents on this list have been missing.
Note that some of these items should be initiated well in advance (a few months) of the proposed cruise date.
Documents in this box are current as of Tuesday 31 March 2020.
Guidelines for Scientists Aboard Canadian Coast Guard Vessels
Guidelines on how science operates on Canadian Coast Guard vessels and what you need to know.
Familiarization Guide
(version 9.0, February 2014)
Coast Guard's Familiarization Guide.
You MUST read from page 19 onwards, including the 'General Statement of Risks' and the 'Statement of Medical Fitness'. These forms must then be completed before sailing
(they will be available at the pre-departure meeting).
Next of Kin
Next of Kin Contact Information (available at the pre-departure meeting).
Medical Examination
To ensure that you will not suffer undue risk to your health while at sea, you may need to complete a full medical examination prior to sailing.
This link outlines the requirements for a medical examination
. Everyone at a minimum REQUIRES a full physical examination, see the link above for all details.
Personal Safety Gear
All science personal must have available on board: PFD, Steel-Toed Boots (bering CSA or similar certification), and Hardhat (with internal foam). There may be PFD's and Hardhats available for general use on board and you should check with the Chief Scientist prior to the cruise start date if you do not have your own (you must still bring your own boots.). Most scientists prefer their own Hardhats and PDF's as they are adjusted to fit your body. PFD's must have enough buoyancy to support the individual, and must be securely to the body with cinches (not just zippers). Self-inflating PFD's are NOT APPROVED for use on CCG vessels conducting science operations.
Personal Screening, Consent, and Authorization Form
Must be completed for ANY overnight stay aboard a CCG vessel. DFO employees will already have this on file, but other federal government agencies will need to provide a copy of this form to DFO. All others will need to complete and submit this form to
XPAC Security
well ahead of the proposed cruise start date. It never hurts to start this process early (3 months or more before the cruise) and even start it if you are unsure that you will be joining the cruise. Those that have lived in more than one country in the last 5 years will require criminal record checks from each country, which will likely take several months.
Valid WHMIS Certification
(Workplace Hazardous Materials Information System)
If there is ANY CHANCE of you handling any dangerous goods on board, then you MUST have current WHMIS certification (check with Chief Scientist for confirmation as your experiment may not, but you still may be helping others). The WHMIS course takes a couple of hours to complete and is
valid for one year
. IOS/PGC users may contact
Michael Arychuk
for an expiration check. Scientists that do not have access to an online in-house WHMIS course, may take a 3rd party online course and present their certificate upon boarding.
If you are visiting from outside of Canada and you have taken a similar dangerous goods course from 2015 onwards (likely named Globally Harmonized System of Classification and Labelling of Chemicals -- GHS) you may be exempt from WHMIS training, but contact the Chief Scientist to make sure.
Passport Required

The Minnesota PGA and Minnesota Golf Association are proud to announce that four player development programs have been selected to receive a Minnesota Golf License Plate grant. In 2018, the Minnesota Golf License Plate Committee will award $75,000 in grants.
On behalf of the Minnesota Golf License Plate Committee, we would like to congratulate the First Tee of the Twin Cities, Independent School District 318, Minneapolis Parks Board and United Heroes League on being named recipients.
The First Tee of the Twin Cities will gain funding for their First Tee National Schools Program. The grant will be allocated to fund golf equipment, online training and in-person training.
Independent District 318 will be given funds to continue its legacy Golf in Schools program that helps introduce students to the game of golf and develop future players. Golf in Schools teaches children the fundamentals of the game while being taught valuable life skills and lessons.
"On behalf of Independent School District 318, we are excited to receive a Minnesota Golf License Plate grant for this year," Physical Education Teacher Jennifer Dulong emphasized. "These funds will help us implement the Golf in Schools program throughout our school district. The goal of this program is to help students develop their golf skills and encourage them to participate in the lifelong sport of golf."
The Minneapolis Parks Board will receive funds to help subsidize rounds of golf played by American Veterans. All Veterans will pay a flat fee of $5 when playing a nine-hole round at Fort Snelling Golf Course. The funds will help cover the remaining greens and cart fees.
United Heroes League, an organization that aims to provide opportunities in sports for children of military members, will acquire funding to help with military efforts and the game of golf. Areas of funding include equipment expenses, golf clinics and instruction and golf access.
"This is a fantastic gift and a tremendous benefit to our military families," said United Heroes League Chief Marketing Officer Benjamin Mattson. "I cannot wait to introduce this fantastic game to these deserving kids and their service member parents."
It is the goal of the committee to maximize and grow the number of youth, military members, and diverse populations being introduced to the game of golf.
"The Minnesota Golf License Plate Committee is thrilled to be able to support these fantastic player development programs that help contribute to the growth of the game of golf in the state of Minnesota," Minnesota PGA Chief Executive Officer Jeffrey Hintz stated. "We want to thank all of the Minnesota drivers who proudly support the game of golf with their Minnesota Golf License Plates. Each driver is impacting lives through golf."
Congratulations again to the aforementioned programs on receiving grants. To learn more about the Minnesota Golf License Plate, please visit www.mngolfplate.com.

[NEWS] Daigo Saito is Victorious at Round 7: Title Fight and is Crowned the 2012 Formula DRIFT ChampionOctober 14th, 2012 by Robert
Daigo Saito is Victorious at Round 7: Title Fight and is Crowned the 2012 Formula DRIFT Champion
For Immediate Release
October 13, 2012
Daigo Saito is Victorious at Round 7: Title Fight and is Crowned the 2012 Formula DRIFT Champion
Long Beach, Calif. – October 13, 2012 – Formula DRIFT returned to Irwindale Speedway for the 2012 season finale. Daigo Saito in the Achilles Tire / Bridges Racing Lexus SC430 takes the event victory and wins the 2012 Formula DRIFT Championship.
Round 7: Title Fight at Irwindale Speedway showcased drifting in its finest form. For the first time in Formula DRIFT and Irwindale Speedway history the event sold out before the gates opened to the public.
"Last year was so amazing we didn't think we could do it again, not like this" said Jim Liaw, president and co-founder of Formula DRIFT. "This is why we love drifting. We are so energized for season 10 starting April 12-13, 2013."
The competition was intense as the championship was up for grabs. Entering the event, seven drivers had a chance for the title. This soon changed as top drivers in the chase were taken out early including points leader Vaughn Gittin, Jr. in the Monster Energy / Falken Ford Mustang, defending champion Daijiro Yoshihara, in the America's Tire / Falken Tire Nissan 240 and the 2009 champion, Chris Forsberg in the NOS Energy / Hankook Nissan 370Z. This opened the door for both Daigo Saito and Rhys Millen in the RMR / Hankook Hyundai Genesis Coupe who met in the Final Four. Millen, the number one qualifier took himself out as he went hard into the wall giving the win to Saito. The wall took a number of victims through the competition including Justin Pawlak in the Falken Tire Ford Mustang when he battled Saito in the Finals, giving Saito the event victory. Saito in his rookie year in the Series becomes the first Series rookie to also be crowned Formula DRIFT champion. Saito a seasoned veteran drifter is arguably considered the best drifter in the world winning the Formula DRIFT Asia championship, D1 championship and now Formula DRIFT Pro Championship.
"Luck was with me tonight. I'm very happy to be able to compete in Formula DRIFT this year. I've wanted to compete in the Series for so long," said Daigo Saito, winner of Round 7: Title Fight and 2012 Formula DRIFT champion. "Thank you to Formula DRIFT and Achilles Tires. I wouldn't have been able to do this without the help of everyone that helped me get to this point."
Formula DRIFT enters its tenth season of competition in 2013. Tickets are on-sale currently and can be purchased through the Formula DRIFT website and Ticketmaster. Round 1: Streets of Long Beach will be held on April 12-13, 2013.

Colonial Tea Collection
This collection features five different varies of loose tea commonly drank in colonial America, including…
* Bohea Tea: This light, winey black tea was the most imported tea in colonial America.
* Cocoa Shell Tea: A favorite of Martha Washington, this tea is made from roasted cocoa shells and has a lightly bitter, chocolate taste.
* Young Hyson Tea: A highly prized colonial tea, this green tea is full-bodied and contains notes of plum.
* Peppermint Tea: This caffeine-free blend was common in colonial America and remains popular today.
* Gunpowder Tea: This lemony green tea comes in tightly rolled balls resembling gunpowder.
In colonial America, the new availability of stimulating beverages like tea provided a welcome alternative to alcohol, and helped coffeehouses become gathering places for community discussion and debate. Tea was also popularly drank at home. In the collections of the Newport Historical Society is the epitome of eighteenth century fashionable tea consumption - a rococo teapot made by Paul Revere.

This argumentation of Peter, therefore, had it even emanated from the apostle himself, instead of being a "religious romance," as the author of Supernatural Religion calls it, would prove nothing whatever in favor of the identity of the God of the Jews, with the "Father" of Jesus. At best it would only demonstrate that Peter had remained from first to last "an apostle of circumcision," a Jew faithful to his old law, and a defender of the Old Testament. This conversation proves, moreover, the weakness of the cause he defends, for we see in the apostle a man who, although in most intimate relations with Jesus, can furnish us nothing in the way of direct proof that he ever thought of teaching that the all-wise and all-good Paternity he preached was the morose and revengeful thunderer of Mount Sinai. But what the Homilies do prove, is again our assertion that there was a secret doctrine preached by Jesus to the few who were deemed worthy to become its recipients and custodians. "And Peter said: 'We remember that our Lord and teacher, as commanding, said to us, guard the mysteries for me, and the sons of my house. Wherefore also he explained to his disciples, privately, the mysteries of the kingdoms of the heavens.'"*
If we now recall the fact that a portion of the Mysteries of the "Pagans" consisted of the aporrJhvta, aporrheta, or secret discourses; that the secret Logia or discourses of Jesus contained in the original Gospel according to Matthew, the meaning and interpretation of which St. Jerome confessed to be "a difficult task" for him to achieve, were of the same nature; and if we remember, further, that to some of the interior or final Mysteries only a very select few were admitted; and that finally it was from the number of the latter that were taken all the ministers of the holy "Pagan" rites, we will then clearly understand this expression of Jesus quoted by Peter: "Guard the Mysteries for me and the sons of my house," i.e., of my doctrine. And, if we understand it rightly, we cannot avoid thinking that this "secret" doctrine of Jesus, even the technical expressions of which are but so many duplications of the Gnostic and Neo-platonic mystic phraseology — that this doctrine, we say, was based on the same transcendental philosophy of Oriental Gnosis as the rest of the religions of those and earliest days. That none of the later Christian sects, despite their boasting, were the inheritors of it, is evident from the contradictions, blunders, and clumsy repatching of the mistakes of every preceding century by the discoveries of the succeeding one. These mistakes, in a number of manuscripts claimed to be authentic, are sometimes so ridiculous as to bear on their face the evidence of being pious forgeries. Thus, for instance, the utter ignorance of some patristic champions of the very gospels they claimed to defend. We have mentioned the accusation against Marcion by Tertullian and Epiphanius of mutilating the Gospel ascribed to Luke, and erasing from it that which is now proved to have never been in that Gospel at all. Finally, the method adopted by Jesus of speaking in parables, in which he only followed the example of his sect, is attributed in the Homilies to a prophecy of Isaiah! Peter is made to remark: "For Isaiah said: 'I will open my mouth in parables, and I will utter things that have been kept secret from the foundation of the world.' " This erroneous reference to Isaiah of a sentence given in Psalms lxxviii. 2, is found not only in the apocryphal Homilies, but also in the Sinaitic Codex. Commenting on the fact in the Supernatural Religion, the author states that "Porphyry, in the third century, twitted Christians with this erroneous ascription by their inspired evangelist to Isaiah of a passage from a Psalm, and reduced the Fathers to great straits."+ Eusebius and Jerome tried to get out of the difficulty by ascribing the mistake to an "ignorant scribe"; and Jerome even went to the length of asserting that the name of Isaiah never stood after the above sentence in any of the old codices, but that the name of Asaph was found in its place, only "ignorant men had removed it."} To this, the author again observes that "the fact is that the reading 'Asaph' for 'Isaiah' is not found in any manuscript extant; and, f "Supernatural Religion," p. 11.
J Hieron., "Opp.," vii., p. 270, ff.; "Supernatural Religion," p. 11.
although 'Isaiah' has disappeared from all but a few obscure codices, it cannot be denied that the name anciently stood in the text. In the Sinaitic Codex, which is probably the earliest manuscript extant . . . and which is assigned to the fourth century," he adds, "the prophet Isaiah stands in the text by the first hand, but is erased by the second."*

Brand: Filter King Filter size: 21x23x1 Actual Size: 21 x 23 x 1 1-Inch Filter MERV 8 Filter Rating Protection From: Pollen, Dust, Mold, Dust Mites, Bacteria, Pet Dander, Smoke, Viruses Residential / Commercial Use
Filter King 21x23x1 size air filters are vital parts of any home air systems and their ability to clean out incoming airflow. The filters in your home consist of a tight mesh weaving that allows air to travel through while any irritants become trapped or absorbed. Your home's air quality rises during the process as clean air filters throughout its rooms. However, your air filters will become dirtier over time and eventually start creating problems for your home if they are not frequently replaced.
When the air filters in your home's air systems are not frequently replaced then they start to become dirty and ineffective. Dirty air filters are a problem for your home due to their tendency to block out any fresh air that is pumped in by your systems. When your home is unable to receive fresh air, then that leads to issues of dryness and stagnation. Your air systems will try to push airflow past the blockage, but that will lead to strain that severely affects their integrity. A strained system is more likely to suffer mechanical damage and cause your energy billing to rise.
Your home air systems need new air filters put in place in order to keep the airflow coming in clean. Filter King offers new 21x23x1 size air filters ready for purchase and able to be used upon arrival. We offer a delivery service with a subscription option to have new filters regularly delivered right to your door. Orders of two or more filters are shipped for free. The filters themselves have a MERV rating of eight and block out irritants like:
The furnace filters in your home have the important job of keeping heated airflow clean before it enters your home. However, the heated airflow is also capable of becoming blocked and causing issue when the filters are dirty. When heated airflow is blocked, that causes a rise in temperatures that could cause mechanical damage over time. The heated airflow is also unable to warm your home, causing temperature fluctuations. Order new air filters today and enjoy fresh airflow throughout your home with new air filters installed.

The Last Two Months
Two Month Update. It might seem a little early for an update on our lives, since we only launched our podcast two months ago, but we just had to share. After doing our Ancestry DNA test, that we talked about in episode one, we learned that we have different biological fathers. After our first episode aired, we found Desiree's biological father, and they meet each other for the first time last week! And that's just the beginning! You'll have to listen to learn the rest. Thank you for all the love and support.

As the rains of summer give way to the sunshine of autumn, the fancies of young and old men and women turn to thoughts of answering (or not) daft questions on a Tuesday night, for no better reason than we like to do so.
Macclesfield Quiz League returns for what I reckon is the 28th or 29th season and if there any historians out there who can tell me definitely one way or the other how long we have been doing this, feel free to let me know.
The first business is, as ever, the AGM, where we will play the Plate Final to boot. The date for the AGM will be decided in the next couple of days and the date will be posted as soon as I know it.
Unless the Large Hadron Collider turns itself back on and does something to us whilst we aren't looking, the date will be either Tuesday the 14th of October or Tuesday the 21st of October at the Weaver, Thornton Square, as usual. We will play the final first of all and then conduct our other business. Watch this space for an update…
This year the Plate Final is between the Knot Inn and the Principals. Questions are in hand courtesy of the Castle with assistance from the Sutton Church House from amongst those submitted by you all at the end of last season.
As I write, I can announce that one new team have expressed a wish to join this year, namely the Lord Byron on Chapel Street, Macclesfield. They are most welcome and if all goes to plan I will start them off in the C League as is customary.
All being well the first game of the season will be Tuesday the 4th of November – the week after half-term, as is now customary.

The world's oldest known bread was unearthed in Jordan recently, according to The Jerusalem Post. Made from wild grains such as barley, einkorn or oats, and also tubers from an aquatic papyrus relative, the ingredients were ground into flour and made into a bread that was probably unleavened, a flatbread resembling modern-day pita bread.
What's important about this discovery is that the remains of the charred bread are more than 5,000 years older than the bread that last held the oldest-bread-ever-discovered title, found on a site in Turkey. That ancient bread was about 9,100 years old. The bread found in Jordan is about 14,500 years old.
The recently discovered bread made by a group called the Natufians was baked more than 4,000 years before cultures starting cultivating plants. A nomadic lifestyle doesn't lend itself to farming, but the Natufians seem to be one of the first to live a stay-in-one-place life.
This discovery poses some questions about the origins of agriculture. It was previously believed that bread came after people started cultivating plants. Now, it's more of a chicken-or-egg type question. Which came first, bread making or agriculture? Did farming lead to bread making? Or, did some culture, perhaps the Natufians, figure out how to make bread and upon the first bite feel the same way about bread that Oprah does?
Did the joy of bread inspire them to stay put and farm?
As anthropologists, archeologists, historians and food scientists try to figure out that answer, one thing is probably for sure. Someone is going to decide that since this is the oldest bread known to man, it's the purest, cleanest, most ancient form of eating. So, get ready for the Aquatic Papyrus Tuber Diet. Just wait and see.

- Witness glaciers, gigantic icebergs and rugged mountains
- See remnants of Inuit settlements
What's Included

Full description
This is the Arctic of Viking lore and legend - a world of icy fjords, fiery volcanoes and glittering, ice-bound seas. Commencing in Spitsbergen and ending in Iceland, this adventurous voyage focuses on the rugged and seldom visited northeast coast of Greenland.
Towards the end of the summer, as the surrounding pack ice breaks up, access to the most remote and very beautiful parts of East Greenland becomes possible. Even in today's age of receding last frontiers, this region sees few visitors. Though traces of former Inuit settlements are widespread, today just a handful of small hunting and fishing communities are found along the entire coast. In a place where man's impact has been so minimal, nature lies virtually undisturbed.

Itinerary & Vessels
Itinerary & Vessels
Day 1: Embarkation, Longyearbyen
Longyearbyen is the largest community in the Svalbard Islands, and well worth exploring before you board your ship this afternoon.
Days 2-3: Exploring Spitsbergen
Spend a couple of days exploring Spitsbergen's northwest coast, which features calving icebergs, historic whaling stations and remote trappers' camps. Brunnich's guillemots, little auks and kittiwakes nest in their thousands. Reindeer roam tundra dotted with wildflowers like saxifrage, moss campion and bell-heather. Weather permitting you may board the Zodiacs for fantastic views of spectacular glaciers, and look out for walruses and polar bears as they walk and swim between the fractured pack ice.
Days 4-5: Greenland Sea
While sailing the historic Greenland Sea your expedition team will entertain you with fascinating presentations on the wildlife and history of the Arctic. Keep an eye out for fin whales, encroaching sea ice and seabirds as you go.
Days 6-12: Northeast Greenland & Scoresby Sund
An ice cap covers 81 per cent of Greenland and pack ice may fill the northern bays, even in summer. Ashore, cosy trappers' huts beckon from across the tundra, where musk ox, Arctic hare and eider ducks roam. Lively cascades at Kap Humboldt provide a microclimate for spectacular hanging gardens whilst Kong Oskar Fjord offers spectacular glacier-carved mountains. In Scoresby Sund, the world's biggest fjord system, massive glaciers calve explosively, creating giant icebergs. Near Rode Island, the Zodiacs may be able to weave through a maze of grounded icebergs, some more than 30 metres high, sculpted with deep green tunnels and aquamarine lakes. There may also be time to enjoy a warm Inuit welcome at Ittoqqortoormiit.
Days 13-14: Denmark Strait to Reykjavik, Iceland
Sail across Denmark Strait from Greenland to Iceland, reflecting on your rich experiences and enjoying the antics of northern fulmars, black-backed gulls, dolphins, orcas and other whales.
Day 15: Disembarkation, Reykjavik
Shortly after breakfast, disembark in Reykjavik.

About Our Leather Craft
If you love Mother Earth, then you love Alyssa's thoughtfulness and commitment to eco-friendly artisanal products. Beyond the love and respect Alyssa has for the world, she has even more gratitude and care for the people with whom she works.
All textile embroidery and beadwork is grounded in fairtrade best practices between her and the artisan directly. You receive a truly multicultural custom piece where the artist is getting a fair amount of money for their work. All feathers are ecologically sourced with humaneness in mind. The Parrots are living a happy existence in Pennsylvania, andnot from the feather industry in China.
All leather used is a byproduct of the meat industry ensuring that the animals were never farmed solely for their skin. rather using the entirety of the animal ensuring no waste
How it works is Alyssa receives the measurements taken from the instrument she's making the piece for and drafts a completely custom pouch or ceremonial bag for example. Each commodity is unique to its purpose and to its person; the loving details are hand sewn for your exact intentions.
All leather comes from a US-based company which sources hides from the meat industry, ensuring the reduction of waste.
Each and every item is made with care, intention, and attention to detail. Quality isof the highest importance to us.
No item is ever replicated, the material vary from piece to piece, so you are guarenteed a completely unique piece of art!
Why We Are Unique
Those who know Alyssa say she's "intentional, high vibrational, compassionate, and authentic". Originally brought up in northern New Jersey, Alyssa quickly cultivated a witty sense of humor for which many accredit her father. Her travels brought her from New Jersey, into Susquehanna University of Pennsylvania where she accomplished a Bachelors of Arts in Spanish and Education and a strong sisterhood.
Alyssa was naturally called into the world through a wide range of healing modalities as she explored life and her many gifts, landing her in her current home in Oregon. She is a student of the Lodge and their ancient teachings, a Kripalu Yoga instructor, reiki practitioner, and highly skillful in sewing with more than fourteen years of experience, leatherwork, and hand-crafted custom designs. She works meticulously designing one-of-a-kind fans, ceremonial bags, and eco-minded leather products to protect your most treasured belongings.
What people love about her is her attention to detail; every single artifact made prayerfully and infused with her love and intention. Her innate ingenuity and industrious skill set mean that all leather items are completed by hand, her hand, no machines.
What Customers Are Saying
Alyssa's vision is far beyond the scope of what is mundane… in fact she takes that which is mundane, regular and plain, and transforms it into what is sacred and intentional.
I love Alyssa's passions for fair trade and eco-friendly practices. It means so much to me that all of her matierials are mindfully sourced.
Alyssa is a true visionary. She has a sight for that which is creative and for the flow. She can easily sense what naturally comes togehter to compliment each other. She is a talented artist.
A Word from the Artist
I want to thankk you personally for your interest in my artwork. I feel that my art is an extention of how I live my life, just as each small daily act is a reflection of the larger picture of one's life. Every day, I move towards a higher allignment to the ideals and standards that I hold for myself: to be a good friend, to be true to my words, to forgive myself for any misguided actions, and most of all to stand with integrity in all that I do. Needless to say that does not always happen, that is where the forgiveness comes in! I am just a regular person, just like you! Lets stand together to create the beauty with which we wish to be surrounded.
Get In Touch!

It's not about steam, I own original DVD-Games that I can't play because they require online-activation and the servers are down,
or the licence is activated on an old machine I sold years ago and the publisher does not make any support on those old games.
in short, the games on dvd are USELESS...so in this comparison even steam could be the better choice. got it?
