integrity | ɪnˈtɛɡrɪti | noun [mass noun] 1 the quality of being honest and having strong moral principles: a gentleman of complete integrity. 2 the state of being whole and undivided: upholding territorial integrity and national sovereignty. • the condition of being unified or sound in construction: the structural integrity of the novel. • internal consistency or lack of corruption in electronic data: [as modifier] : integrity checking. [1]
To me, in simple terms this means:
“Doing the right thing, even when no one is around to witness it”.
How to lose me
The quickest way to lose me, is to question my integrity or to show me that you have none! It is way up there on my list of virtues, no ifs, no buts, no deviations, and no argument.
I have come across too many people that have lacked this quality, and spent far too much time in their company. But it not something that I tolerate well, so from now on I would rather leave people who lack it, well enough alone.
(31st December 2016)
Update:
I have since learned just how much integrity means to me. Having been on the receiving end and having witnessed so any occasions when people have demonstrated their lack of it, it has done more than raise an eyebrow, and I have lost respect for these people because of it. I have many people in my life, who don’t even know that I can write, or that I am so creative or talented in many things. They do not know that I have been writing for years and have created more than just a personal blog. But they chose to ignore or not see that side of me, and therefore have no comment. I sometimes feel that people would choke on their words, if they tried to say something to me.
I suppose the question I always ask myself is:
“If they are able to do something (not good), and not think twice about it, then what else are they capable of?”
If I have that feeling about someone, they will lose/never have my trust or be allowed full access to enter my life.
I’m not even sure why it is so important to me, but it is a trait I will look out for in the simplest actions. It has left me cold at times, when I have watched other peoples’ behaviour, when they believe themselves unseen. It is akin to taking pride in yourself and your conduct, and a ‘must have’ quality.
But sadly, so many people let themselves down. Sx

I have been writing since I was 13 years old and I am now 52. It all began with a writing poetry project for school, and it has continued to evolve. It was a time that coincided with my brother’s seriously ill health, and his subsequent death from that illness; and writing was my way of dealing with that. As part of a ‘Life laundry’ exercise about 20 years ago, I destroyed a large part of my written work, mainly because I finally understood how it tied me to a place, that I never wanted to revisit again in my lifetime. It was also the mark of a turning point, recognizing my continual growth and healing. I find that writing is a way of releasing thoughts and untangling my complex mind, it always nourishes and makes me feel better. Even if sometimes my own words bring tears to my eyes. But I have noted over time, that the tears have become less. Even if the subject that caused them still hurts. In more recent years I have created and write for my own blog, called “Journey through a painful body and depressed mind”, as well as contributing to an online mental health site called “Mental Movement”. Both of these have witnessed my deepest and most desperate moments, whilst dealing with my own issues of depression and my failing physical health. I have written hundreds of poems over the years, expressing everything from joy, deep sorrow, bereavement to starting over again; it is definitely something I do when I need to restore balance. And they are written on all sorts of things, whatever was available to me at the time when the words chose to pour out of me; so they amount to quite a collection. I used to say that, “if anyone were to pick them up and read them, they would be holding ‘The book of my life story’ in their hands”. And that is still true to some degree today, but now I also express myself through my art & creativity, and the beautiful things that I create. A lot of what I am posting, was written as a teenager over 30 years ago, so please note the date at the end of each entry. However, in most cases, the contents are still very appropriate and ring very true today. I always knew back then, that I was wise beyond my years, and looking back now it’s almost as though I already knew what lay ahead of me. It’s as if my words were the very seed of my true vocation, as now I believe that writing is very much a part of my future and something I must do. I have only ever shared my written words with a few people in my life before, but now I feel brave enough to put myself out there and share with the world. I hope you enjoy.

In part 3 of Rita Apaloo’s article about her visit to UDS, she mentioned how another student, Gabriel Zargo, found jobs for two hotel management students. Solomon K. Manjoe is one of those students.
Solomon is 24 years old and graduated on April 13, 2019, with Diplomas in Computers and Hotel Management. He was hired as a non-contracted employee about a week before he graduated. I interviewed him on Messenger on July 12 to see how work was going for the first 90 days.
Heather: Are you ready to share how your job is going?
Solomon: I am getting very interested and comfortable with my job. The beginning was very hard because I never had much experience, but now am serving as a night auditor.
Heather: Are they paying you?
Solomon on Graduation Day
Solomon: Yes. They are paying me but am not really happy with what they are giving me. However, to be real I am getting a lot of experience.
Heather: Did your courses at UDS help with learning this job?
Solomon: Yes, everything I am doing at work is what I got from my study at UDS.
Heather: What are your future hopes in this career?
Solomon: My future hope is to become a manager of one of the best hotels in our Liberia.
Heather: What was your educational background before UDS?
Solomon: I’m a high school graduate. I went to college for two semesters for a computer programming degree and drop out because I couldn’t afford it.
Heather: Has UDS prepared you to meet your future goals?
Solomon: So true, I strongly believe that we from UDS are very qualified and we can do better from what I experienced.
Solomon in his uniform
Solomon works a foreign-owned guest house about 10 minutes from our center. Although they have not offered him a permanent employment contract, he is able to support his family for now.
Thank you for giving Solomon the chance to learn two trades in our center and start his career in hotel management!

There was barely time to change out of my wet shoes after the hike, as Tante Hortensia had called for the first choir rehearsal for tomorrow’s mass to take place before dinner.
One of the most charming features of the monastery at Kistenhof is the number of amenities which are tucked behind a neat row of modest-looking doors. Without really exploring, I discovered a library, swimming-pool and church.
At five thirty-five, I opened the door labelled “church”and discovered to my dismay that I was late. The Schultz family was already gathered around the piano, singing the Schubert Mass in four-part harmony. Tante Hortensia was conducting with passion and warning that even the most beautiful music performed too slowly becomes “kitchig”. “You’re an alto like me”, whispered my mum as we found a spot behind the sopranos and in front of the tenors.
My Tante Hortensia is amazing. For as long as I can remember, she has been directing all musical operations at Schultzfest events. She is vesatile and perfectionist in equal measure. The children’s choir of ca 1997, of which I was a part, performed a song about toilet paper (aptly named Klopapier) which she accomapinied on guitar. The performance was word-and-pitch-perfect. Now, fourteen years later, in a monastery in a remote German valley, she was just as exact as then.
There was much ado about where Tante Hortensia should stand. She complained that some memebrs of the choir weren’t watching her, and that as a result, the ritardandos weren’t being observed. Certain members of the choir retorted that the person in front of them was obstructing their view. Efforts at re-positioning enjoyed some success but were hampered by the constraints of the altar.
The rehearsal concluded with the arrangement to meet for a brief runthrough at 9 am the following morning.
It was now time to dash back to our respective quarters to get ready for dinner. I leave you with a picture of my mother and me just before we entered the dining hall. More to come, depending on demand.

1- In chapter one, there is a boy named Bruno, we get introduced to his family and staff. He finds out he is moving from Berlin for his father’s job, he didn’t want to move. In chapter two, he arrives at the new house and thinks it is the loneliest place in the world. A serious soldier helps the family move in. He didn’t like the view from his window at his new house.
2- In chapter three, the children think they went to a place called “out-with”. I think they are mispronouncing Auschwitz. He talks about his sister and her friends and how they bully him. In chapter four, he looks out his window to find a concentration camp and thinks the kids aren’t friendly. He then shows his sister the camp and she asks “where are all the girls, mothers, and grandparents?” He doesn’t know the answer to that question.
3- In chapter five, Bruno is having a flashback to when they were leaving. He was misunderstanding the word Fuhrer (Hitler) thinking his mother was talking about the Fury instead. Seems like his mother is not on board with Hitler’s plans. His father is trying to make their new house normal and says, “Home is wherever the family is. In chapter six, Bruno hated the new house. The maid talks to Bruno about the past. Bruno said that the maid was part of the family and that if all of the family wanted to go back they should. The maid tells Bruno to keep his head down.
4- In chapter seven, Bruno didn’t want to become mad because he was so bored. Bruno then makes a tire swing. Bruno scraped his leg and bumped his head then the male maid helped him. Bruno’s mother tells the servant to not tell father what happened. In chapter eight, he has flashbacks to grandma’s performances. In the last play, they didn’t go well. Their grandma hates when the father wears his nazi uniform. Bruno also describes his experience in (Out-with) or Aushwitz.
5- In chapter nine, Bruno starts school with a private tutor but he is disappointed he is only learning history and geography. He misses art and literature and exploring his old house. In chapter ten, he got bored so he decided to go exploring outside because their house is small. He walks along the fence and meets a boy in the prison camp, his name is Shmuel. They talk about their lives and find out they are exactly the same age. Bruno is inquisitive about the boy and is envious that he has other kids to play with.
6- In chapter eleven, Bruno had a flashback to their house in Berlin, where the fury (Hitler) once came to their house and was rude to the children. After the fury left his house his parents argued and then soon after that they moved. In chapter twelve, Shmuel and Bruno continue the conversion of their lives, Bruno keeps thinking they have had similar experiences. Bruno then lifts the wire between them and suggests that he should come over and visit. Shmuel mainly wants to know if Bruno has food.
7- In chapter thirteen, Bruno has more questions regarding Pavel (Their Servant) because Pavel said he was a doctor. Bruno sneaks food to Shmuel to feed him. Bruno brings up the topic of soldiers and Shmuel tries to dismiss the matter quickly. The family has dinner later with LT. Kotler doesn’t go well-considering fathers prodding questions about Kotler’s father. Pavel then goes on to drop the bottle of wine on Kotler and Kotler then proceeds to attack Pavel while everyone watches in disarray. In chapter fourteen, Bruno asks if he can crawl under the fence to play, Bruno is questioning why Shmuel wants to leave his side of the fence so much. Bruno is annoyed by Gretel because it is raining. Bruno accidentally lets it slip that he meets Shmuel so he makes the excuse that he has an imaginary friend which Gretel laughs at.
8- In chapter fifteen, Shmuel got assigned to clean glasses at Bruno’s house. While there he was approached by Bruno. Bruno offered him chicken, Shmuel accepted then got in trouble with LT. Kotler because Bruno denied that he was Shmuels friend. Shmuel didn’t go to the meeting place for many weeks but when she did appear he had many bruises on his face but he said it didn’t hurt anymore. In chapter sixteen, Brunos grandmother dies. LT. Kolter got transferred some celebrated and some didn’t. Bruno asks about (Out-With) Gretel tells him that the fence keeps the Jews kept together but keeps them out. She also explains how the Jews and they are a lot different and how they are lesser beings, Bruno is confused by this answer which infuriates Gretel.
9- In chapter seventeen, the mother and the children are going back to Berlin after much discussion. Bruno is ok with either moving back to Berlin or staying in “Out-With”. His mother seems not to be doing well. In chapter eighteen, Bruno and Shmuel meet at the fence and Shmuel talks about how his dad disappeared and didn’t come back from work duty. Bruno offers to talk to his father but Shmuel declines because he hates guards. Bruno said to Shmuel that he was leaving in two days. Bruno comes up with a plan to come to the other side of the fence and wear striped pajamas and help Shmuel look for his father, even though he was probably shot by a guard.
10- In chapter nineteen, they carried out their plan. Bruno climbed under the fence and helped Shmuel look for his father when soldiers started telling them to get into a small room with no lights. Everyone was freaking out. I would have too. In chapter twenty, Bruno’s father went to the fence and saw that Bruno has climbed under it, he broke down in tears realizing what happened. The soldiers then took him away. My thoughts are, Bruno and Shmuel got sent to a gas chamber and died. Bruno’s father got punished for letting this happen to his son. The book is overall a good book, I would recommend this book to anyone who is interested in suspenseful books about World War 2 times.

The book The Boy in the Striped Pajamas is quite an interesting book considering when the book took place during the 1930’s. It has an interesting plot with many twists that I did not expect. I can’t wait to finish the book considering the view point is from a little boy in the middle of a gruesome war. I would definitely recommend this book to someone who enjoys a read of mystery and action. This book is personally one of my favorites.

This article I about injustice in the court system. It covers many topics that can affect the verdict. Studies show that race is a big factor when it comes to deciding if someone is guilty. Studies show that the darker your skin color there is a higher chance you will be picked out of a line-up. This article also covers the idea that attractiveness has an effect. For example, if you are overweight you are more likely to have a higher bail, or more jail time. There is even a quote that states, “a system that we know does include quite a lot of judicial bias.” This shows us that there is indeed injustice and we should bring to the judges attention the evidence.
What is one way we could stop the injustice?
Why do you think there is so much injustice?

There was once a little kid named Johnny, he was a standard kid with standard grades. Although he had the idea to complete a foray on his classmate with water balloons. He always hated that classmate. He was expounding his plan to his friends when suddenly one of his contemptuous bullies hit him. The bully hit him so hard that he fell to the ground feeling nothing but pain. Johnny tried to tell teachers but they were all auspicious towards the bully. Johnny’s voice was quelled. Johnny’s mother was inquisitive and asked what happened; therefore, Johnny told her. His mother’s mouth gaped as he told her the story. His mother turned malignant towards the school and the bully and decided to join Johnny in his new quest to throw water balloons at the bully instead of his classmate. The plan went … well … not as expected. The end

November 5
In the poem Romeo and Juliet by William Shakespeare, Juliet’s mindset at the beginning of act IV is sad, which advanced the plot by setting the stage for the actions she will take and thus demonstrates the overall theme that love is a powerful force that overrules all other values and emotions. For example, when Paris says, “Poor soul, thy face is much abused with tears.” This quote shows that she had recently been crying prior to going to Friar Laurence. Most commonly, crying is associated with sadness. Love drove her to consider unorthodox and harmful options. For example, when Friar said, “If, rather than to marry County, Paris Thou hast the strength of will to slay thyself.” This shows that in her grief Juliet was willing to experience death because she was without her Romeo. Her sadness drove her to do rash, harsh, and inhumane actions to stay with her love. Her love was passionate towards Romeo. Juliet said, “What if it be poison?”This shows that against her better judgment she took the sleeping potion, even though she thought it could be poisoned. This once again shows how powerful of a force that love can be. Overall, Juliet’s love for Romeo was filled with passion and borderline violence when she decided to experience death for him.

We had a family meeting and we could all air grievances. My parents want to augment our diets with bad tasting vitamins. Later my siblings and I planned a mutiny against our parents. But we were worried about the severity of the punishment. My older brother tried to sway our parents to our way of thinking. In the end we agreed that submission to their rules was the best approach.

If you are a fan of traditional Sherlock Holmes stories that you would efenty like this book. it would also help you in understanding the plot and characters because there is a lot of background knowledge that the other books give. The book starts by explaining that the author wanted this book to be published after he died. In reality that is fiction but that is an interesting tie to the original series. In this book, Sherlock is draw into a mystery regarding his family. If you haven’t read the previous series it can be quite confusing at times with the old english language. There were many twists and turns after every chapter. I would definitely recommend this to a friend because it is such an interesting read. It has you on the edge of your seat half the time.

From China to Italy – The History of Pasta
Events / Guides and SuggestionsPasta is one of those popular dishes that has its version in every country in the world. The name of the pasta is Italian and derives from the texture of the mixture of egg, water, and flour. Although pasta has a traditional Italian history, the reality is that it originates from another place. From a country on a different continent. Learn where pasta originally comes from in this article. Origins Its origins come from Asian noodles. Some stories say that China introduced the pasta ‘plant’ to Marco Polo in the 13th century, and from there, the westerners turned it into the fine noodles we know today. Barley flour is not only used to make classic noodles, as it’s also used to prepare lasagna. From China to Europe No text proves how pasta travelled from China to Europe. Many believe the nomadic Arabs were the ones responsible for this. The popularity of pasta flour has increased greatly as it is long-lasting and gluten-free. It is said that thanks to the mild climate of the Mediterranean, the Italians experimented with their fresh herbs like basil and seasonal vegetables like tomatoes and onions to create a perfect sauce to accompany these noodles. From Europe to America The Spanish colonists brought pasta to America. Thomas Jefferson was responsible for making it popular. This was thanks to a trip he made to Paris, where he enjoyed macaroni so much, that he took two huge boxes back to the United States to eat them there. Since the 19th century, Italian immigrants who moved to America further popularized their sauces and pasta combinations. This translated into opening restaurants to show and promote the cultural exchange. As its history indicates, pasta has been transformed depending on the continent.

This origami tessellation can be found on the page 36 of the book mentioned before, and it’s a beginner project.
I have to admit that I made a few mistakes on this one.
I wasn’t sure how I like it more, the star shape part or the verso.
In the beginning I thought I like the verso more, so I started with the color side down….but after working on it, I wished I would have made it with the colored side up.
In order to make this Star Puff Tessellation you have to start with a Spread Hexagons pattern on a triangle grid.
I first made o grid of 16 divisions but then I pushed a bit further and went with a 32 divisions as it’s suggested in the book.
After you finished pre-creasing the grid you will start working on the Spread Hexagons pattern. The book will teach you every think you need to know.
The pattern tells you to find the middle and start from there.
On first try I did not started in the middle, so I unfolded and tried again, but it was still not in the middle. Even the third time was not a lucky one so I gave up and continued it the way it was.
Once the Spread Hexagon pattern is made you will continue by making a triangle twist at every corner on the hexagon.
This is quite simple to make, a time consuming one, but a easy one.
And we are almost there. After you prepared the paper with the triangles twist you will start shaping the stars.
You will have to push on the triangle from the opposite site and the paper should pop into place and form a beautiful star.
You can make the stars wherever you want them and as many as your pattern allows.

For Afghans fleeing the Taliban regime, the experience of Syrian refugees in Scandinavia is a warning
October 17, 2021
STOCKHOLM: Of the millions of Syrians displaced by the civil war since 2011, a significant minority have managed to reach Europe, escaping not only violence and persecution, but also forced conscription and poverty.
Even in the initial phase of the arrival of the wave of humanity, many European countries closed their borders. But with Germany, the Scandinavian countries of Sweden, Norway and Denmark were among the most welcoming.
In September 2014, images of drowned toddler Alan Kurdi lying on his stomach in the waves of the Mediterranean near Bodrum in Turkey shed light on the terrible truth about the Syrian civil war.

In the same month, the Swedish Migration Authority announced that all Syrian refugees seeking asylum would be granted permanent residence upon arrival.
“Our assessment is that the conflict will not end in the near future,” Anders Danielsson, chief executive of the agency, told national radio at the time. “Therefore, international law requires that they receive permanent residence permits. “
Following the announcement, the number of Syrians seeking asylum in Sweden increased from 30,000 in 2014 to 51,000 in 2015, according to government figures. Neighboring Denmark also saw an increase in 2015, processing around 21,000 asylum applications.
But six years later, the pendulum of public opinion has swung far in the opposite direction.
Along with Germany, the Scandinavian countries of Sweden, Norway and Denmark were among the most welcoming for Syrian refugees. (AFP archive photo)
“Denmark took the nationalist-populist route first, followed by Norway,” Swedish Socialist MP Ali Esbati told Arab News.
Esbati fears that his own country is starting to follow suit. “This is in part because many people in Sweden feel that we did what we could in 2015 and took the responsibility that a rich country should take, while other countries did not. not done.”
Indeed, while the situation in Afghanistan brings the issue of European asylum policy back to the fore, the political atmosphere in Sweden is far from the receptivity of 2015.
“We will never go back to 2015. Sweden will never find itself in this situation again,” Stefan Lofven, Swedish Prime Minister, told the national daily Dagens Nyheter on August 18, three days after the capture of Kabul by the Taliban.

Esbati said what bothers him most about these comments is the lack of recognition of Sweden’s success in welcoming and integrating Syrians.
Among those who fled to Scandinavia in 2015 was Abdulla Miri. Desperate to avoid conscription into the Syrian regime’s armed forces, Miri chose to flee to Europe, promising her fiancee Nour that he would also get her out.
“I had paid so many bribes that my money was running out,†he said, speaking to Arab News from his home in Stockholm.
Miri recalls an incident shortly after arriving in Denmark on his way to Sweden when he noticed two police officers watching him. “This was before I started dressing like a Scandinavian, so it was pretty obvious to them that I was a refugee,†he said.
“I thought I was in trouble, but the police helped me buy a ticket to Sweden. They knew that almost all the refugees wanted to cross the bridge to Sweden, so the three of us laughed at the situation. “
Nine months later, Sweden granted political asylum to Miri.
The Syrian refugee crisis began in March 2011 after the regime’s brutal crackdown on protests in support of a group of teenagers who were gathered over the appearance of anti-government graffiti in the southern city of Daraa.
The arrests sparked public protests across Syria, which were violently suppressed by security forces. The conflict quickly escalated and the country descended into a civil war that forced millions of Syrians from their homes.
Syrian refugees have sought asylum in more than 130 countries, but most live in neighboring states: Turkey, Lebanon, Jordan, Iraq and Egypt. Turkey has the largest share of the refugee population, now housing around 3.6 million people.
European countries collectively host around one million Syrian refugees, 70 percent of whom are hosted by just two countries: Germany with 59 percent and Sweden with 11 percent. Austria, Greece, the Netherlands and France host between 2 and 5 percent, while other countries host less than 2 percent.
Most refugees from Middle Eastern and African states reach Europe by walking overland from Turkey via Bulgaria and Romania, or crossing the Mediterranean on rickety boats operated by human traffickers .
According to the International Organization for Migration, at least 1,146 people have died trying to reach Europe by sea in the first six months of 2021, more than double the number in the same period in 2020 , when 513 migrants drowned.
Those who survive the perilous journey receive a mixed reception. Many trying to reach the UK, for example, tend to find themselves stranded in the French port of Calais in squalid makeshift camps. For the most part, those who choose to settle in Germany or the Nordic states enjoy international protection status.
INNUMBERS
6.6 million Syrian refugees worldwide, of which 5.6 million are hosted in neighboring countries.
1,146 asylum seekers who drowned while trying to reach Europe in the first 6 months of 2021.
Since the start of the Syrian crisis in 2011, more than a million international protection decisions concerning applications from Syrians have been taken by asylum authorities in EU + countries, according to UNHCR.
However, economic problems, a wave of Islamist terrorist attacks and the feeling that migrant communities have failed to integrate fully have led to a rise in right-wing populism in many European states, causing the welcoming spirit manifested in 2015.
Nawal Abdo Hadid, a 62-year-old Syrian who lives in the quiet suburb of Gentofte in Copenhagen, has learned that her residence permit will not be renewed because the Danish authorities consider that the situation in Syria is no longer dangerous.
“When I received the letter, I had a heart attack,†Hadid told Arab News. In addition to her heart problems, Hadid suffers from asthma, which makes it difficult to climb the three flights of stairs to her one-room apartment. His house is sparsely decorated, giving the impression of a life spent in perpetual limbo.
Hadid believes his return to Syria could be a death sentence due to his social media posts criticizing the government. A neighbor she accused of being a pro-Assad “criminal” threatened Hadid and her son, who still lives in Syria with her six children.
“I haven’t seen my grandchildren for over six years,†she said. “I’d rather die alone in Denmark than go back to Syria and put my son’s family in danger.
Miri’s situation couldn’t be more different. When he received his Swedish nationality in July 2017 after five years in the country, he flew to Beirut to marry Nour, then brought her back to his home in Stockholm.
Although Sweden suffers from a shortage of affordable housing, the couple got lucky. A widower rented the ground floor of his house to them in an affluent suburb of Stockholm.
“Having him in our lives is a blessing,†Nour told Arab News. “I can always ask him for help and he’s kind of a father figure to us.”
Nour, who studied English literature in Damascus and who loves the poet Lord Byron, has already started to discover Swedish authors.
“Everything I don’t remember”, by the famous writer Jonas Hassen Khemiri, himself the son of a Tunisian immigrant, left a strong impression. “He understands what moving between countries does to the soul,†Nour said.
Miri, who now uses her Swedish nickname “Abbe”, speaks flawless Swedish. Nour’s Swedish has a barely detectable Arabic accent, although she sometimes has trouble finding the right words.
Every year on June 6, Miri hosts a Swedish national holiday for her friends. Native Swedes usually don’t care about vacations, so gatherings are a novelty.
Miri’s journey will be difficult for future asylum seekers to emulate. On June 23, the Swedish parliament approved a new immigration bill that makes temporary residence permits the norm, just like the Danish system.
“We need an entirely new political (framework) for people to be included in society and settle there,” Maria Malmer Stenergard, spokesperson for immigration policy, recently told national radio. Moderate Conservative Party.
“We must start by reducing immigration.
Yet hope is eternal. On the window sill of Miri and Nour’s house is a stack of books on pregnancy and parenthood. They arrived as a gift from a Swedish neighbor when she learned the couple were expecting their first child.
• This is the first in a two-part series. Next: What Afghan asylum seekers can expect.

What a week I have had since I last posted! I have had so many lovely comments and the wealth of support has been amazing!
It has been a hard week! Now I had made some changes already but it was time to make more of them and let me tell you the first few days were terrible! I was so moody and oh so hungry which as many of you will know, that is a bad combination!
It seemed that more effort that I put in, the more crisps and chocolate I craved but I kept going. The determination began to waver when it was time to weigh myself! Stepping on the scales with my heart pounding and my fingers crossed to find that had nothing had been lost. The consolation was that nothing had been gained either.
For those of you who know me, you’ll know that I like to strop! I stropped like there was no tomorrow. The sadness and despondency had set in, and i was just stood there wishing for the scales to change, but this is not a Disney movie! They didn’t change no matter how many times you wish upon a star.
I stayed moody for a few hours but then I was very much back on the bandwagon and all was well again, back to the exercise and better food choices which carried on until weigh in day arrived again!
It was the same! Nothing! Nada! Nothing lost but nothing gained again! The even moodier and hungrier Abbey was back! However you will be pleased to know that only for a few moments as after a loving pep talk from Mr Millwood- I felt reenergised and ready to keep going. My confidence was back on track. I have to say that my husband has an amazing way with words!
I was bouncing back once more and I was carrying on with the plan! This time I was even more honest and determined than before. I was shunning chips and Bath buns for salad and yoghurt! ( obviously not together!)
It was soon time to weigh myself again but this time I hopped onto the scales without dread just with hope.
I waited with baited breath to find out that I had LOST ONE POUND! I had actually lost it!! It is here that I must apologise to Mr Millwood as we were supposed to be getting ready to leave the house but I just kept checking it. Again and again and again!
Now I am aware that one pound is not a lot, but to me- that one pound means everything!
That was it! There was movement! Movement!
I am so ready for the week ahead and the challenges I will inevitably face, but you know what?! Bring it on!!
Once again, a massive thank you to everyone who read these posts and to those of you who commented, it means the absolute world to me! Please, please keep it going!
More positive encouragement will be needed this week, and if you have any advice please do let me know!!!

‘They can vote with their feet’: As Xi locks in power, many Chinese rush for the exits
Oct 12, 2022
Between the Detian Waterfall and Friendship Pass along China’s southern border with Vietnam, locals used to trade chicken and rice on bamboo rafts along the Red River.
“There were lots of businesses, big and small, near customs,” says Lyu Weijun, who runs a small hotel in Detian Village.
“Since the pandemic, all such flows had been tightly restricted. There were barbed-wire fences installed along the river. The pandemic situation in Vietnam is serious, but they treat it like the flu.”

On this 1200-kilometre border between China and Vietnam, locals are acutely aware of their predicament. China remains stuck in the land of COVID-zero while its neighbour flourishes.

“This area has been locked down three times this year, all during the most lucrative seasons,” says Lyu. “The first time, it was just one night before the Spring Festival [in February].”
All it took for a lockdown in Detian was for one infected person from Guangdong province on the coast of China to visit Debao, a county that is 100 kilometres away from Lyu’s village. Two more lockdowns would strike in April at the beginning of the summer holidays and during the National Day holiday in October.
“I may not make enough money to cover the elevator maintenance fee,” says Lyu.

Lyu, like many Chinese business operators, is losing patience with a COVID-19 strategy that appears to have no end in sight. Now, as Chinese President Xi Jinping prepares to lock in his third term in power at the National Party Congress starting on October 16, many are rushing for the exit.
“They cannot actually vote, but they can vote with their feet,” says Alfred Wu a professor at the Lee Kuan Yew School of Public Policy in Singapore and an expert on the political economy of Greater China. “The middle class that can is quietly starting to leave or planning to leave.”
In Japan, British schools Malvern College, Rugby, and Harrow, famed for educating royals and members of parliament, are setting up campuses to cater to high-end Chinese demand. In Malaysia, the number of Chinese student applications has doubled. In Europe, there has been a rush on Chinese applications, to Greece, after the government announced it would double the cost of an investment visa from $380,000 to $760,000. Across Southeast Asia, but particularly in Singapore, Chinese buyers are dominating the market for properties worth more than $5 million – making up 20 per cent of sales so far in 2022.
“International schools in Singapore are receiving a lot of inquiries, not just from Hong Kong, but from the mainland,” Wu said.
In some cases, Chinese parents are enrolling their children in Singaporean schools and pay tens of thousands of dollars in fees to secure a place before getting out of the country.
More than 100,000 Hong Kong residents applied for a British National Overseas visa in 2021 and China remains Canada’s second-largest source of permanent migrants.
Joe Jin, who owned a baby product online shop in China says he had been considering migrating to Canada for the past decade but circumstances this year forced his hand.
“What made me actually take action is the further education of my elder son who will enter high school this year and the bleak prospects of my own business,” says the 45-year-old, who has moved on a student visa and begun work as a courier. He misses home but does not regret his decision.
“Immigration brings a huge change in lifestyle and sometimes loneliness,” he says.
In Australia, the most recent set of Department of Home Affairs data shows that China once again became Australia’s largest source of permanent migrants in 2020-21, topping India for the first time in the past five years with 22,207 places.
Zheng Guo, an international steel trader, is now considering a move to Australia despite the ongoing geopolitical tensions between the two countries and his concerns about COVID-fuelled racial discrimination in Australia.
“Doing international trade requires lots of travel and visas. However, as foreign countries do not recognise the Chinese vaccine, I have to take prolonged quarantine, at my own expense,” says Zheng.
“Another reason is to provide a better educational environment for my son, who will enter middle school this year.”
Educational opportunities have always been a key reason for middle-class and wealthy Chinese families to go abroad to both give their kids a better chance at attending prestigious universities and minimise the pressures of gaokao – China’s high-stakes university entrance exams. But under COVID-19 they have also become an excuse to get out of a country that has maintained strict control over passports throughout the pandemic.
“China has not opened yet and many people are hoping to go out, but the Chinese government has been issuing few passports,” says Jack Zhang an immigration consultant based in Shenzhen.
Zhang says the number of passports issued in China in the first half of 2021 was only 2 per cent of the same period in 2019.
“Today, it’s almost impossible to get a passport for visiting family or tourism but studying abroad or doing business is relatively easy,” he says.
“Chinese people living overseas live a free life, like many of my friends who live abroad. However, inside China, we are in a closed state, not that free, such as in Shenzhen, as soon as there was an outbreak, it was locked down.″
Outside the Canadian visa centre in Beijing in September more than a dozen people were standing in a queue waiting to see if they would be allowed to leave.
“I’m planning to visit family members in Canada,” says one woman who asks to be identified due to the political sensitivities of travel. “The most difficult part of international travel is to get a Chinese passport because it is not issued regularly in recent years due to COVID-19.”
Getting money out of the country is also tricky. Chinese migrants have to establish bank accounts overseas, and then transfer their Chinese yuan into an exchange account run by another company. The exchange company then holds the yuan and transfers the equivalent foreign currency from a foreign exchange bank account to get around Chinese government restrictions on transferring money across borders.

On Chinese social media services Weibo and WeChat “run xue” or “run philosophy” went viral in May, as residents in Shanghai grappled with food shortages and millions were sealed in their apartment blocks. But even as some of those pressures have eased, immigration agents say demand for a way out has continued to grow.
Some are resorting to extreme measures. In August, CNN followed 33-year-old Wang Qun as he made his way to the United States. The bubble tea shop owner got his passport by applying for a language school in Ecuador, flew to the capital Quito, caught a bus for 1600 kilometres to Columbia, took a boat across to Panama, spent three days hiking through the Panamanian jungle, made it through Costa Rica, Nicaragua and Guatemala before scrambling across the US-Mexico border. He was one of the dozens following instructions in an online forum on how to immigrate illegally from China to America.
“In the years after Xi Jinping came to power, China’s policies have become tighter and tighter, the economy is not doing great … and (his) dictatorship is only getting worse,” Wang told CNN.
More than 2000 Chinese Communist Party members will gather for a week from Sunday to anoint Xi as General Secretary for a third term where they could also name him as either Chairman or “People’s Leader” and elevate him alongside Mao Zedong in the pantheon of Chinese leaders. Xi has ruthlessly pursued COVID-zero more than any other world leader, turning an impossible task into a personal test for both him and the Chinese people.
Fences once again encircled neighbourhoods in Shanghai on Monday and staff were locked inside restaurants. Mobile units have been installed on sidewalks to carry away close contacts to quarantine, dashing hopes of any real easing of restrictions before the end of this year.
“We must remain vigilant against the spread of the epidemic, increase our confidence and patience in our country’s epidemic prevention and control policies,” Chinese government-controlled media outlet People’s Daily said in an editorial on Tuesday.
“[We must] overcome any numbness of the mind, any war-weariness, any thought of leaving things to chance, and any complacency.”

Canada – Friends! Axes, Downhill Mountain Biking – and more Friends!
The Voice of Laney
Lane and I flew into Quito and stayed a few nights before our Local Living Jungle Tour. I had chosen a hotel/hostel in the Old Town knowing our tours would be based out of the New Town.
Well, the place we stayed was fabulous. Right in Old Town right on a square and just around the corner from La Rhonda street, which I considered to be the epitome of the Old Town charm. Plus check out these views and what an amazing (included) breakfast and the view from there!!
Gorgeous view from the breakfast room.
Beautiful breakfast – my eggs arrived later.
View from my bed. Santo Domingo square.
While I was outside enjoying the view from this hidden smoker’s patio, a woman came and hung up these plastic sheets then hung the meat. I guess she was drying it? This is one time I wish my Spanish was better. Ha. If we tried this at home the seagulls would steal that meat in a minute!
I took some time to explore Quito a bit. I walked to the Plaza Grande which was beautiful and bustling with locals and travelers. I walked (uphill quite a ways) to The Cathedral to see the gargoyles.
Vendors selling hard boiled quail eggs. A pretty healthy street food snack!
There is some gorgeous architecture in Quito, particularly in Old Town
I bought some of these not really sure what they were but it met my criteria for street food. Hot and the locals were buying it. It was good. Like not sweet cornbread with crumbly cheese inside.
This is the Basilica of the National Vow in Quito. It is gorgeous and has gargoyles of the native Ecuadorian animals all around.
There was some construction/repair going on while I was there – not surprisingly. The belief is that when it’s complete, the world will end. HA.
Anyway, I got some help from my friend Google in order to show you some good photos of the gargoyles on this beautiful church.
I think this one is my favorite. Sea birds. Left to right, I’m thinking boobie, red-throated frigat, and pelican.
While exploring around town, I saw this music man. Pretty talented, I say!
So I think I’ve said before how I don’t do as much research as I should when going to a new place. Well, imagine my surprise when American money came out of the ATM! Oh and this is where all the dollar coins are. Ha. Oh and there are American outlets – unfortunately, we didn’t have any American-type plugs left (except my toothbrush). HA. So, I bought some!
Plaza Grande – This is La Catedral. You can climb to the top, and now down a tiny set of corridors that were previously unaccessible. I didn’t do it, but my friend Geraldine (from the Jungle tour) did.
But the big reason for being here was to visit the jungle and the Galapagos
We had a great group of people on the jungle tour. I like this type of tour because it includes some local or indigenous type experiences and tends to draw likeminded travelers. And this was no exception.
For the first time, we had a handful of Americans on the tour! 4 independent travelers, actually.
On this tour, we would be traveling 6 plus hours out of the city. On a public bus. I was a little concerned about Laney’s motion sickness but she made it through.
We stayed at an indigenous homestay which, as I expected, was a modified version of actual indigenous living. We had rooms of 3 or 4 beds with mosquito nets. Bathrooms and showers were downstairs around the corner, detached. There was a dining area in another building. Everything was open air and in the spirit of traditional living but clearly expanded to host groups of travelers like us. Plus, well, plumbing. Ha. I appreciate the accommodation.
Pathway to the homestay. It was a short walk, and uphill. Fortunately, Laney and I had pared down our luggage to only one bag. We left the other at the hotel in Quito – this move is common for us on a tour. Since usually on a tour like this we start and end at the same hotel, it’s convenient to leave things behind. Like the cold weather clothing since this IS the jungle. HA. Anyway, Laney was nice enough to carry the big bag. HA!
in the photo above the building front and center are the hammock and grill house. Lots of hammocks and an outdoor wood grill where the fish was cooked – also where we cooked up the chocolate.
To the left is the building with bedrooms.
Behind and to the right are the dining and hangout areas.
While there we experienced and learned a lot about the local Quichua people and the jungle life both past and present
Upon arrival, we had lunch which the family prepared for us. Typical Ecuadorian food includes plantains and yucca and rice at pretty much every meal. Made in a creative variety of ways. It is the staple of their diet. For the sake of the tourists, a meat or fish was included in each meal. The food was very good – especially the fish which was cooked in a large leaf which is also used for making tea and could be seen strung and drying from the porch nearby.
After lunch, we walked up the road and into the jungle following a stream and proceeded to be mud-masked by our hosts. One was the son, the other the son in law of the shaman host Delphine and his wife Stella.
In the jungle that big knife is called a problem solver Ha.
Our hosts. And guide, Franklin above, went a little beyond the mud mask. HA
One way to bond a group of strangers together is to make them look ridiculous shortly after they meet. Ha. This was truly a great group.
Gorgeous sunset from a high viewpoint in the jungle
This snake crossed the road on our walk back. Awesome.
My favorite meal the fish dinner. I’m pretty sure it was tilapia with lemon
After mud masking, we all washed up at the nearby stream and relaxed until dinner time.
The next day we took a (powered) canoe ride to an animal sanctuary and also spotted some wooly monkeys along the way. It rained the entire time we were at the sanctuary so some animals were hiding but it was still pretty cool
When we got back it was hot and sunny so we decided to take a dip in the stream. It was gloriously cold and great except for the GIANT SPIDER that jumped out when Ruth sat on a big nearby rock. This thing was the size of my hand! Laney was shocked to the point of being speechless. Ha. It hopped right in the middle of the pool we were dipping in and then hopped it’s way over some rocks and downstream away from us. Many screams and a few seconds later it was over – but not everyone wanted to hang out too much longer. Ha.
That wasn’t the only spider experience we had. One night we went up the hill to have a campfire in a nearby building with hammocks and tables. And on the way to the bathroom, Laney and some of the other girls started screaming. They came across a scorpion spider. Again as big as my hand but this one has CLAWS like a crab. Very creepy. I was taking a photo, and they were looking on as one of our hosts tried to scoot the spider under the building (with a broom). Well, it suddenly started scrambling towards us. HA. I definitely moved quickly to the porch. Laney and the other girls ran like 100 feet away, screaming. HA.
And to top off the night, upon entering a bathroom before going to bed, there was a scorpion on the wall. It was quite busy and content munching on a large cockroach. Ha. Needless to say, I chose another bathroom for the night. Ha. And yes, I had to go to the bathroom multiple times each night. (freaking beer) – Involving shoes, a flashlight and a walk in the dark to an outdoor, dark bathroom – and I didn’t have contacts so I couldn’t see much. Even with my phone light. I definitely wouldn’t see any spiders or scorpions on the walls. I checked where I was stepping but that’s about all I could do. Perhaps it’s just as well. Probably don’t want to see what’s there anyway. Ha!
This photo of the scorpion is a little blurry because it was pitch dark – no lights in the bathrooms – and I had to turn off my phone flashlight to take a photo. Kinda creepy. Ha.
One night we got to witness a mock Quichua marriage ceremony and also saw how traditional chicha is made. Chicha is an alcoholic drink made from yucca. First, the yucca is boiled and peeled (or peeled and boiled) then the woman of the house chews multiple mouthfuls and puts the mouthfuls back in the pot. It’s all mixed together and then set in the kitchen and covered, stirred every day. The saliva starts the fermentation process. Water is added to create the right consistency. Yes, of course, we had some chicha while there. No, I don’t know if it was chewed, I assume so.
Funny thing while we were there-there was a film crew doing a documentary on ethical travel. Some of our tour group is bound to be in that film!
This is the powered canoe we took to the animal sanctuary.
Wooly monkeys we saw on the way. These are now wild, having been previously residents of the sanctuary. They are on a somewhat secluded island in the river. Unfortunately, ‘exotic’ animals are sometimes captured and smuggled to other countries for sale as pets.
Please – if you are considering an exotic pet – don’t. Yes it’s cool and novel, but for every pet adopted, probably MANY had to die in the capture and transport process.
Beautiful toucans at the sanctuary. Most, once pets, can’t be released to the wild, but some are being bred and their offspring will be released to the wild to replenish the population.
This is a walking tree. It can move! As you might imagine, it releases one root (the above-ground part you can see here), and grows the other, allowing it to move and survive as the landscape changes. For example, in the case of erosion near a stream. Pretty COOL!
One afternoon we went to the nearby Laguna Azúl (Blue Lagoon). HA. Like Iceland or that forbidden movie when I was a kid/teen. Anyway, it was gorgeous clear water with a rope swing and some pretty serious currents.
Waterfall upstream of the lagoon.
There were lots of butterflies in the area. In fact, the name of the town of our homestay means butterfly in Quichua language.
We saw these blue butterflies everywhere. They are quite large, about the size of my palm. I wasn’t able to get a good photo, so I’m borrowing this one. HA
During our jungle walk, Delphine showed us many things, including how to pan for gold. There’s a lot of panning for just a little gold, but can be worthwhile for some people.
Delphine also showed us a variety of traps that are used to capture wild animals for food. Including pigs, snakes and even monkeys.
Check out this palm tree – very spikey.
We all tasted this leaf, which tastes like cinnamon, but obviously is not. (Cinnamon is a bark, not a leaf).
.This is George and of course, we called him George of the jungle like ALL the time HA
We all got jungle-ized for our jungle walk. HA. The symbols on each of our faces meant something different like fertility, or warrior strength, etc.
.Delphine had a little fun with his jungle attire.
Delphine climbed this tree with only a circle of rope he made from a nearby plant. A few of us tried it – he made it look so easy. Ha it was not!
One of our favorite activities on this tour was the white water rafting. Supposedly 3 or 3.5 rating and in COLD water. A couple of us took turns riding on the very tip of the bow of the boat with legs dangling the edge. Hang on cowboy! Ha, it was definitely a rough and wet ride!!
Another favorite activity was the waterfall hike. Basically a hike upstream, and then up a few waterfalls. Ending with a solid dousing in the waterfall. Very fun, a little challenging/dangerous, but at least we wore helmets! Ironically, I was actually quite cold! Once I got wet the jungle wasn’t as hot as you might think!
Next activity, chocolate making. We had seen versions of this elsewhere, but we really got to see the full process (and taste the results!) this time. First pull the seeds from the fruit (you can eat the fruit that clings to the seed, it’s quite good).
Then roast the whole seeds.
Then grind the roasted seeds (in this case, in a hand grinder that looks a lot like a meat grinder).
.Then cook the grinds with milk/cream and sugar.
Here you have it! Chocolate fondue!!
Next up, blowdarts! Unlike actual hunters in the jungle, we had a stand for the blowgun. It was SERIOUSLY heavy!
The winners of the blowdart contest were given a present. This is it. It’s called Chontacuros by the locals. These Amazonian grubs are the larvae of the palm weevil. They were presented live (and lively). The ladies receiving the gift (Christene and Lauren, if memory serves) nearly dropped them when they opened the leaf. HA
These are still live -I didn’t eat them that way. HA
The preparation was pretty interesting. First, each one is ‘cleaned’ meaning the guts are taken out. One of our hosts managed this while we watched. Interestingly, they were still moving after this process.
Then, they were put in a pan. I’m not sure if there was any butter or oil involved, I have heard they have their own ‘oil’ so it’s not necessary. They squirmed for a while as they cooked. Then they stopped moving and a few minutes later….
I was enjoying them!! Quite tasty actually! Some said they had a bacon flavor. It was definitely buttery and smokey and a bit like seafood. I would say similar to softshell crab or scallops.
On the way back to Quito we stopped and enjoyed a soak in the hot springs. Well, I did. Laney enjoyed soaking up some wifi at the nearby hotel HA!
After the tour, Lane and I were headed to the coast hoping for some surfing and beach time. Our new friend Matt was headed that way so we asked him to join us on our car ride. It was a long day and I was grateful to have another driver with us.
At the coast, we didn’t do much. We were pretty worn on out. It was nice to have a spacious, air-conditioned apartment after those nights in the jungle.
We did enjoy some beautiful sunsets from our porch, though.
Before we knew it, it was time to go back to Quito for the Galapagos tour.
Galapagos is a good example of me booking things with only a high recommendation and very little research. And very little by way of expectations. The days leading up to the tour I was thinking ‘gosh I hope there is more than seeing tortoises’. Ha. Wow. Yeah. There definitely was.
From Quito, we flew to Santa Cruz with a stop at Guayaquil which, ironically, we flew from to get to Quito. Just the day before. Ha.
Landing on Isla Santa Cruz we had a short bus ride to the channel where our bags were loaded on the roof of the boat. All of us were a little nervous about this. I mean the bags weren’t tied down. There was no railing or ridge on the flat roof. Won’t they fall off!? Well, this was the first of many of these experiences and frankly, it was the safest – things got much hairier from here on out, from a luggage perspective. Ha. But it all worked out ok.
We drove across the island and stayed in the town of Puerto Ayora for a night and explored the Charles Darwin Research Center.
These cacti grow a 3 meters in 100 years. That makes this one pretty old! This is a prickly pear cactus.
The tortoises above were hatched at the center and these are about 4 years old. At 5, they will be released into the wild. This is the age when their shells are hardened enough to survive in the wild, from native, and non-native predators (like goats and dogs).
We learned the story of Lonesome George
It wasn’t easy getting into and out of that shell! HA
Puerto Ayora is an adorable town with enough tourist amenities to be comfortable but still pleasantly small and extremely walkable. Our hotel here was quite adorable as well.
Above, that’s a real tortoise shell with wooden legs.
Inside that turtle shell/table.
Some of the native animals around Puerto Ayora are pretty comfortable with humans, we saw some even just walking around!
This guy is no doubt worn out from begging for scraps from the people cleaning fish at this fishing-boat harbor.
Begging for scraps.
Also looking for a free meal!
Water Iguanas were everywhere!
The mom is begging for scraps, the baby is nursing!
The next day we had a kayaking and snorkel trip. It was really great. We kayaked first and most of the time we were paddling near the mangroves and the rocky shore. From the beginning, and for nearly the full hour we kayaked, a sea lion followed us. Laney named him Finn. He popped up regularly see what we were doing. SO GREAT! We spotted sharks swimming in the shallows, saw many pelicans resting on the mangroves and saw the famous blue-footed boobies diving in the water and also resting on the rocky cliffs as we paddled past. WOW.
The snorkeling was also really cool. The visibility wasn’t awesome but we saw some big sharks, some fish and lots of sea urchins. I left the water earlier than most because I was freezing but the others saw swarms of small and medium-sized sharks by the mangroves. Laney loved it. Of course.
After that, we dried off and drove a bit. We explored a nearby lava cave which was HUGE in parts (think 1-2 car tunnel) and very small in others (like belly crawl, but only for a few feet). These are caves formed many years ago by flowing lava from a volcano. The best part was the barn owl that we saw at the entrance to the cave. Just sleeping. Not caring at all that we were there. Ha.
Then a nap and dinner at a local street food type place. I had langostino which is pretty much the same as the Morton Bay bugs I had in Australia only these were HUGE so I only had one. Ha. Laney had grilled fish (shocking, she usually eats beef. Ha. )
The next morning we had breakfast and then some time shopping before we boarded a water taxi and then a bigger motorboat to drive to the island of Floreana.
Each of these drives between islands was about 2 hours, and every time it was pretty rough. Just a PSA for anyone looking to do a Galapagos tour. Laney was ok, I think she actually does better on boats than on buses. HA.
As soon as we got to Floreana (transferring from our big motorboat to a water taxi, to the dock) we spotted sea lions and water iguanas at the dock. We went to a local shop for snorkel gear, dropped our bags at our waterfront huts and hit the beach! Snorkel time! Well apparently the Galapagos is known for wildlife that isn’t afraid of humans (I told you I didn’t do much research – HA) and boy is that true!! In a short time snorkeling from the black sand beach, we saw a few turtles and a few sea lions. WOW. The best part was the sea lions that swam past Laney and I were a mother-daughter pair – just like us!!
It was pretty chilly – we were going to get wetsuits for more snorkeling the next day. So we didn’t snorkel too long and soon headed beak for a miraculously hot shower (I think only ours was hot. Ha. ) and then a group dinner and a couple drinks at the local bar. There is only one bar on Floreana, the population being something like 141.5 – one resident is pregnant. Ha. The bar was great, we enjoyed the campfire until the rain kicked in.
After a good nights rest, we had a lovely breakfast and headed to another snorkel spot. This one was part of a national park and included a sea lion ‘nursery’. Well, I have never seen so many turtles – so close! I hung out near one HUGE one and watched him/her carefully nibble seaweed from the rocks in the shallow water. His/her head was as big as mine! Such an amazing experience. At times I could see as many as three turtles at once. At one point I was watching one turtle when another one joined from the right and a third one came up behind me and swam under me to join the other two!! Scared me for a second. Ha.
Also, the sea lions were coming and going from the nursery beach and would swim up, around and past you. Let me tell you they are FAST!
Even from the beach, you could see turtles and sea lions constantly. Popping up out of the water. Such a great experience. I would have stayed in the water all day except that, even with a shortie wetsuit, it was still cold! I thought we were on the equator! That’s the Pacific for you I guess. Lesson learned. Ha.
I napped after that while Laney went snorkeling again with some people from the tour group. After that, another good local dinner – no bar for us this night – we were tired!
The next morning a nice breakfast and then off to Isabella island. One of the larger islands with a population of about 2000 if memory serves. This island is the home of our guide Linka, and was formed into the shape of a seahorse by its 7 volcanoes (6 are considered active, and one was expected to ‘erupt’ any day while we were there!)
Upon arrival our rooms weren’t quite ready – so, I went to the store with Kristi and bought some snacks for Laney and a can of Gin and Tonic for later for me. Then we chilled in the hammocks for a while.
Isn’t that a beautiful staircase? IT IS! Until you have to lug your big, heavy bags up 2 flights (eyeroll).
Later we went for a trek to Sierra Negra, one of the 7 volcanoes on Isabella. Because one volcano was currently a little too active we didn’t get to hike as far as usual. Just as well, the hike was at times really muddy and it rained almost the whole time. On the way back we stopped and switched from the van to bikes for a downhill ride. It wasn’t quite as downhill as I hoped but of course, I was too stubborn to quit. Ha. Upon returning to the Hostel, that G and T tasted so good I went to the store for more. Ha.
That night we went to an international place for dinner and I had some Mexican shrimp fajitas. Yum. And margaritas. Yum. In Ecuador, they have happy hour pricing. It’s not at a particular time of day it’s more like bulk buying. You order 2 or 3 of your drink for a set price and they bring you one after the other as you are ready. I’m not sure how this works out for the restaurant but it works for me. Ha.
The next day we had an early start to snorkel a place they call the tunnels. Another boat ride for about 30 minutes. It was pretty rough going. I stayed dry. Not everyone did. Ha. Getting into the tunnels area was pretty interesting – I have to give these boat captain credit. They have to navigate into shore with lots of rocks, shallow areas oh and BIG BREAKERS. I did not envy their jobs. And once inside, there are some tight spaces they navigate to get to small, protected bays where they moor the boats. Very tricky.
The snorkeling there was pretty cool. Lots of fish, including big schools of tiny fish and small sharks looking for breakfast. Also a big ray. More turtles. And some bigger sharks. Some swim through tunnels, also with sharks. Laney spotted a moray eel. And we saw some puffer fish. Near the mangroves, I spotted some small mullet and some tiny shrimp swimming around. The best part, though was when our guide Gabrielle pointed out some seahorses. 2 separate ones, each clinging to a branch or stick on the bottom not far from the mangroves. Thing is, they were HUGE. I expected them to be small like my finger. They were bigger than my hand. Wow. First time seeing one of those in the wild.
I will say that snorkeling was a bit frustrating at times. Some people in our group seemed to have zero experience snorkeling (our tunnels group included people not on our G Adventures tour) and so they were kicking up sand and silt and standing and generally messing up the visibility. So that was annoying but Laney and I found some opportunities to get away from the group like when we found our own cave full of big sharks. Very cool. Ha.
When we came out of the water we had hot tea and lunch. The hot tea was quite welcome. Once again I was FREEZING in the water.
We had a walk around the tunnels area as well. By the time we walked it was full-on high tide, so we didn’t see as much as the other group. My friend Carol caught these images which are pretty representative of the boobies in the area.
On the boat ride back I spotted something unusual on the surface and sticking out of the water. It was vaguely fin-shaped but with a hook/knob at the end. It was a manta!! Swimming upside down on the surface I guess. Very cool.
Upon returning to the hostel I had a quick nap and then we headed out for a kayak and snorkel trip. I wasn’t sure I could get back in the water – I was cold at the tunnels with a shortie wetsuit and this time we had no wetsuits. Yikes!
Well, we paddled, saw some sharks in the water, red-throated frigates flying around and we saw PENGUINS on the rocks and swimming in the water. So so cute. This is the only place you can see them wild in the Northern Hemisphere, I am told.
It took all my willpower to get into the water -I was cold sitting dry in the kayak! But I did it and I am so glad I did. We saw, of course, lots more turtles. And schools of parrotfish. AND the best part. I swam off a bit away from everyone to some mangroves and a sea lion approached me. He/she swam toward my feet and somehow I sensed it was playing with me. It swam toward my feet and I swam towards its back fins. We circled each other a few times like this. Then it blew bubbles so I took out my snorkel and blew bubbles. Then it swam right up to me and looked me in the face. Titling its head like in curiosity ‘what are you?’ I mean, it’s adorable little face was about 10 inches from my face. It was looking me RIGHT in the eyes. What a crazy cool experience. I will never forget it. Wow.
So glad I got in the water and got cold. Ha.
We paddled back into shore and Laney and I surfed a few waves to the beach where a small sea lion was swimming around in the shallow water only a few feet from me. Very cool.
We certainly slept well that night! Ha. The next day was to be mostly a free day. And of course, given the opportunity, Laney wanted to surf! Fortunately so did several other members of our group.
We started the day with a visit to another tortoise sanctuary where we saw lots more tortoises of varying ages, including one pair of tortoises that were mating. The male was grunting and making all kinds of noise. Linka says it can go on for two or three hours!! Ha. Laney of course was mortified. Ha.
After that, we walked through a park of sorts and saw pink flamingoes and water iguanas and some other birds. This was a brackish water area where fresh and salt water mix. It was also a major crossing for the water iguanas and they were everywhere, like constantly. Very cool.
Patiently (HA) waiting for the surf guy (and boards) to show up.
I was a bit obsessed with these crabs that were always on the rocks. They varied in color. I was told they are brown/black when they are young and develop the red/bright colors as they get older. Wow, talk about killing off the old. I have to imagine these colors make them easy prey for the many birds here!
A well-camoflauged group of small water iguanas resting on a rock.
A bit later the surf rental/instructor came by and drove us all in the pickup to the surf spot. It was a beautiful sandy beach and no one else was there!
The surf was great – though waves were a bit frequent so getting out was a bit of a challenge. There weren’t enough longboards so I waited until someone got tired. That didn’t trek long. Ha. Fortunately the water on the beach was warm so finally, I wasn’t cold in the water. It was really great getting on a board again. I’m not good but I do enjoy riding the waves in. The best part was, every single first-time surfer taking a lesson was able to get up and ride for at least a little bit. Yay!!
After that, a quick pack up and back to Santa Cruz. Another rough 2 hour ride but we saw dolphins. Cool!
Below, our tour friend Carol composed this video from her Go Pro footage.
We enjoyed a ‘last group dinner’ with most of our group at a nearby Italian/pizza place, had another night in Quito, then off to Peru!
Lima, here we come!

Our arrival in Vietnam was probably our most eventful yet. Not really in a good way. Ha
For starters, the Visa on Arrival process is a little disconcerting. We had all our paperwork in order, photos printed, paperwork filled out and the approval letter in -hand. We turn it all in, along with our passports, and wait on some benches nearby to see our name come up on a screen. We were one of the first people off the plane so there weren’t too many people waiting but it was unnerving to hand over our passports. Laney had questions and concerns. I had no solid answers except that this seems to be the process and we can see others doing it. HA. That is as much assurance as you can get sometimes in travel.
We got called, we paid our money in USD because we had no access yet to an ATM or currency exchange, we got our passports back and THEN went through immigration.
Got our bags and grabbed an Uber to our place
the Uber ride was great our driver was young and spoke a little English. We passed over the beautiful bridge that was lit up in changing colors. As he pulled off the main road he seemed confused turned around once or twice. At one point the car hit a bump and I think was stuck judging by the crunching sound. He ordered us to get out. We reluctantly did. Did I mention it’s 10 pm and dark? And things look a little sketchy by US standards. And our luggage is in the trunk. He gets the car unstuck then tells us our place is a 100 meter walk down a narrow road that he cannot drive. I confirm that google shows me the way, and we set off. When we get to the spot that google tells us it’s looking kinda rough, but I see women and families walking around so it must not be too bad . I tell this to Laney to try to keep her calm. We are looking for #22 and we see #19 and #25 in front of us. Right next to each other. No 22. Uh oh
We walk a bit down the road/ alley and I see a family with a little girl and baby unloading their car. I approach them and thank goodness they speak some English. I ask them by showing them the address and the woman says it’s 1km away and tries to tell us how Tom walk there. I ask her if she can help,us get a taxi I don’t want to try to find our way and we have big bags. I am a bit hesitant to walk in this unknown area in the dark and I’m certain we will get lost. No way we will find the place without the help of a map and google has failed me for the first time.
She walks up the hill/driveway with us and flags down a taxi. A complete miracle this is because we are on a very quiet back street with hardly any cars. The driver is off duty but agrees to come back in 5 minutes. He has food in his hands as he walks away from the car so he is either delivering something or eating his dinner. I am relieved. Laney is still freaking out. IDO eyeball a guy standing near us in workout clothes, but soon the driver comes, loads up our luggage and takes us to the right place which looks a little better but not much. Ha.inside our place is immaculate, gorgeous and HUGE! And the door man is kind enough to help us turn on the AC. (because it’s not in English of course). HA!
The next day I do my usual exploring and grocery shopping. On my own, Laney isn’t feeling well – a fever, yikes.
In my wandering I see a few cool spots including Furbrew which I tell myself I’m coming back to later, and i do, and it’s awesome. The staff is a handful of college students, mostly women but one guy. They are friendly and speak good English and we have a great conversation about their lives. One wants to work in travel. The other wants to be a translator. They all want to travel. They ask where I’m going in Vietnam and give me pointers. I ask where to get pho and they suggest a place and I go the next morning (pho is eaten in the morning) and it’s awesome
I also looked up a restaurant nearby for dinner one night -and enjoyed a wonderful experience and meal. Poor Laney stayed home. I think she would have even if she wasn’t sick. So far, based on our arrival, she was not liking Vietnam. Ha
LOOK at that beer list!! Yay!
Pho choices. Thank goodness there was an English description.
Being near the flower night market I think there were more of these in this area than others. Women selling beautiful flowers from a bike.
Gorgeous right?
I attended an Airbnb experience which was a dinner in the old quarter. I had some trouble with the Uber getting there but finally made it. The food was vegetarian and good. The company was partly American and partly German. Nice folks but we didn’t hang together long.
The entrance area to the Forest restaurant.
Inside the restaurant
Delicious meal of fresh spring rolls and eggplant
Cool restaurant in our neighborhood in the skirts of Hanoi
Aa few days later, we moved to our tour hotel in the Old Quarter. I could not Believe how busy it was !! And loud! Constant honking!!
My friend Leslie suggested I stop by this posh hotel to see the pool bat and have a drink.
I asked, and the waitress suggested this fancy drink – the most expensive one there but still only about fifteen American. I had no idea what this would entail.
It’s hard to see in the picture but the liquor is being poured through 3 cups of spices and caught at the bottom. It is also on FIRE! Cool. It is caught at the bottom in a steel pitcher and while still on fire in the pitcher it is poured back through over and over.
The drink was very unique – the flavors were so amazing and different without being sweet. It included chili pepper so it also hd a kick. And it was served with lovely munchies.
Walking around Hanoi, especially in the old quarter, is quite an experience! There are so many bikes, mixed with some cars, and there are no real laws regarding traffic. What we would consider a law, the Vietnamese consider only a suggestion. For example, which side of the road you should be driving on. At times, I thought I was crossing a one-way street. But, not so! It is a 2 Way Street! only, if there’s no traffic the other way, people drive on the full width of the street. Also, traffic lights. It is absolutely not unusual for cars and especially motorbikes to continue driving through a red light.
Crossing the street, especially in the old quarter, is a little different for Local’s versus tourists. Locals will literally just start walking, completely trusting that the traffic won’t hit them. Tourists, on the other hand, wait for traffic to lighten up, a little bit. However, there is never a time when you can cross without traffic. You are always walking slowly, making eye contact with the drivers, trying to better the chances that they will drive in front or behind you, instead of through you.
Of course, my favorite trick, was to follow the locals across the street. Particularly, the older women in the traditional Vietnamese pointed hat. It seemed like the Red Sea would part for them. So if you align yourself with the right person you are much better off.
As usual, we met with our tour group at 6 PM in the lobby, and then headed out to dinner. It was a mix of people, some older, some about my age, and one young person, Lila, who is 21 and traveling alone. She immediately expressed gratitude at being with the group, versus the first few days on her own in Hanoi and other parts of Vietnam.
Lake at the center of Hanoi
Cool statue in front of a building. There were two, and they were about my size!
First dinner with the Vietnam tour group
Pumpkin soup was really good and pretty common in Vietnam.
Fish with dill ina banana leaf
Traditional Vietnamese hats – apparently come in many sizes, including tiny ones for tiny people? HA
Laney and Laila at the post it cafe.
Jim, Jackie and I at the post it cafe where we had our first egg coffee! OMG so good I can’t wait to make it at home!!
Beautiful – not even sure what it is! HA!
Perfectly aligned motorbike parking! Vietnam is the self-proclaimed motorbike capital of the world! In Ho Ch Minh City (formerly Saigon) there are about 11 million people, and 8.5 million motorbikes!!!
Gorgeous enormous tree growing in the middle of Hanoi.
Statue at the water puppet theater.
We attended the obligatory water puppet show which was pretty cool.
My favorite meal here next to lemongrass chili chicken. Pronounced Boon Chow.
Bun Cha and a Hanoi beer. Known as the Obama combo because this is what obama ate when he was here!
Selling chicken on the street. Heads included!
Street food tour!! One of my favorite things of the whole dang trip! Great food, great fun and I learned a lot. The Bun Cha was on this tour too, that’s how I learned about the Obama combo.
Pronounced Bang Me. I laughed when the girl said it. She said it’s important that Me be lower than Bang. Tone of up or down has a lot of meaning in Vietnam.
BIA. In Vietnam, you say beer like a Boston guy. This is the beer lady. This beer is made fresh every day and only lasts 24 hours. And costs about 25 cents per glass. But it’s good!!
Chicken feet for sale!!
This is a snack, kind of like donut holes. We were advised not to eat them from the women selling them in the streets as they could be old. These are cut up. They are savory, not sweet. They have pork and I think green beans in them.
Vietnamese Apple. Looks like the thing the garden guy gave me in Thailand. Tastes about the same too.
Ok so weasel coffee is coffee beans eaten by a weasel then pooped out then cleaned and sold for grinding and making coffee. I shit you not. Hahaha.
As per our tour itinerary, we were to leave the next evening to take the overnight train to the north west of Vietnam, close to the borders Of China and Laos. We would be Viking a nearby minority’s village, then spending a night in a SaPa hotel, then trekking to a remote minority village for a homestay, then coming back by van and heading back to Hanoi for another night
Drums that are hand made by the people in the small minority’s village we visited.
Our cabin on the overnight train! A little old but clean. Sleeping was interesting, as the turns of the train Almost rolled you over and would have tossed me out of bed a few times but for the rail holding me in! I thought I slept well but got really tired later so I guess I did not!
Beautiful flowers are supposed to have medicinal powers. I think to help with hangovers. Bean sprouts, by the way, are supposed to help men, like Viagra.
The rooster is outside the cage, seemingly patrolling or guarding the hens inside….hmmm
A group of kids playing Chinese chess
A quick shot of a cave we went into at the top of the hill at the village.
Beautiful views from the bus on the way to SaPa
Outside a small local restaurant in SaPa
White rooster perched outside a hotel entrance.
Beautiful shot looking down on SaPa
Hot pot dinner with the group. They bring all the food uncooked and you put it in the broth to cook it. Kinda like fondue. Same same, but different – as they say in Vietnam.
Church at SaPa lit up,at night.
Small children dress up in traditional costum and sell their wares. This was not during school hours but we were warned not to buy from kids because then they don’t go to school
Hot wine!! All of Vietnam was hot and humid butnSaPa was COLD. this hot wine with fresh fruit after dinner hit the spot! Supposedly a specialty of SaPa
Beautiful views on our trek. It was about 10 km
These ledges are built by hand with shovels. The government owns the land but allocates a certain amount per person to farm the rice and eat it or sell it. Families work together to divide the work of farming while others work in tourism or construction.
At our rest spot on the trek we chewed sugar cane to extract the juice and then you spit out the fiber. Obviously it’s very sweet but quite refreshing!
We see how rice and wheat were ground into flour. I tried it, it’s not easy! Those parts are made from stone and they are HEAVY!!
End of the trail I meet Laney at the homestay… and she wants to take a walk. HA!!! I’ve been walking all day but I go anyway.
Pretty river near the homestay
Dinner at the homestay, with homemade rice wine. It was SO good tasted strong but smooth and clean.
Food at the homestay dinner. So so good. I don’t have a pic but we had crepes the next morning. PILES of crepes.
Laney and Laila at dinner
The local women pulled leaves and branches from the bamboo on the path to make us figures. I thought it was a chair. Ha. Laney says it’s an animal.
Hard to see in this pic but these are supposed black footed chickens who also have black meat, and they are supposed to have medicinal powers. Imagine a black chicken breast? Doesn’t sound very appetizing to me.
This cat was in a bar in SaPa. He climbed down from the chimney when we arrived. Maybe fearing someone would light a fire? We called him squeaky because he NEVER SHUT UP. HA.
Cats around the world.
Back in Hanoi for one more night, I decided I must try the popular beer snack. Chicken feet with dipping sauce.
Time to try a local specialty, fried chicken feet. They had pickled too but I just couldn’t do that. Best part of this photo is Laney in the background, cringing.
Have to say the fingernails, rather toenails, freaked me out a bit.
Not bad!! Tastes like fried chicken. The colnel should get these going at KFC!! Think they would be a hit? HA.
Only Stan and I tried it. He’s one first guy on the left.
Cooking eating on the sidewalk is normal in Hanoi. In Vietnam in general. Seats are small so they can be moved quickly. Technically you aren’t supposed to sit on the sidewalk. Forces pedestrians to walk in the street and I’ve already explained about the street traffic. Nonetheless, the sidewalks are crowded with people and chairs. If and when the police come, everything must be moved off the sidewalk. Although I think this may depend on the ‘relationship’ you have with the police if you know what I mean.
Another person cooking. Not just for businesses, but how they cook their own meals as far as I can tell.
Next day on the way to Halong Bay we stopped at a place where disabled folks make crafts like needlework and carvings from stone. Some of these folks are born disabled supposedly due to the lingering effects of agent orange. Either environmentally or passed genetically.
I so want this Buddha.
A candy/cake meant to be eaten with unsweetened green tea. This cake is rather sweet and supposedly made from green beans.
Our room on the Halong Bay boat. So much nicer than the dive boats! Private bathroom! Who boo.
Beautiful Halong. I have to say it would have been prettier on a sunny day. And it’s rather crowded, boats everywhere. There is a nearby bay that is not as crowded, and I would have gone there if I was on my own but sometimes it’s just so much easier to let someone else be in charge, like Rocky at G Adventures. . Ha.
There. Are 1,969 islands in Halong Bay and the area is over 1000 km!! If you stay overnight for 2 or more nights you go out further and there are fewer people
This is the other bay.
After our stay on the boat, we went to a pearl factory. Where they raise the oysters, and pearls and then make them into jewelry. Did you know a cultured pearl is made by putting a seed made from oyster shell INTO an oyster? Then toss him in the water and wait a few years. Pull him out and harvest the oyster. Who knew? Before this process, only naturally occurring oysters were available and thus were much more expensive.
Harvesting pearls. Imperfect ones are sold and ground up for cosmetics.
Oyster surgery. She is inserting the seed in JUST the right place.
Laila and Laney.
Dinner with the group. Notice Laney is sitting as FAR AWAY from me as possible. Ha. Yes, we spend a lot of time together so when we can, we separate. Ha.
After Halong Bay we made our way back to Hanoi for a few hours, picked up our bigger luggage and hopped on another overnight train to Hue. Pronounced something like We with an H at the beginning HWE. In Hue, we had a nice dinner and everyone opted for the motorbike tour the next day. ‘Professional’ drivers would drive us around Hue to see all the sights I have to say, this was one of our favorite things in Vietnam. So much more interesting and interactive than traveling by car or bus. And you get around faster too! We were mainly out of the city, Thank goodness because the bit where we came back into town to our hotel was a bit crazy! We loved it but I’m not sure we were all that safe. Ha
First stop on the motorbike tour is this Japanese bridge.
BABY DUCKIES!! For sale in the market.
Fruits and vegetables in the market many I cannot identify with any certainty
Bridge
Bridge
Beautiful field of rice. In the north, Sapa, it had not yet been planted. Because of the cooler weather they do one planting per year up north. Two per year in central Vietnam, and three per year in the south.
Green as far as you can see.
Fish at the kings residence, no longer in use. We learned about the mandarins and the concubines. THe king could declare any woman a concubine if she caught his eye, and she was required to live in his compound and be his until he chose to let her go. Usually upon his death. Even if she was married it’s children, she was required to desert them !!
More sights inside the imperial city.
Inside the imperial city.
hen biking it was suggested we wear masks due to the air quality. Many many people in Vietnam wear these when riding a motorbike. Ours were disposable but quality ones are for sale on the street by the thousands in every conceivable color and pattern imaginable!
Beautiful Buddha at the temple we stopped for lunch.
Beautiful orchids at the temple. I think Vietnam has the perfect weather for orchids. Hot and humid.
Also at the temple.
Buddha at the temple
Laney and her motorbike guide.
Crazy cool looking Jeep.
Laney took a turn at rolling the incense onto the stick. It’s like a dough-like consistency and you roll it onto the stick. It takes 24 hours to dry after that before you can use it.
I saw this painting and I wanted it so much. I just love it…
Beautiful stairway at the king’s burial place. According to Rocky (our guide), most likely the kings bodies are not really there – they are buried by very few of their closest guards, and likely moved to a secret location.
Can one BE cool, with a face mask? HA I gave it my best shot!
Lunch at the Budhist temple.
Laney makes it look cool. hA
Drinks with the rowdy group after motorbikes and dinner. Some are saying the Vietnamese ‘cheers’, which is Moat, Hi, Bah, ZO (spelled phonetically). For one, two, three, cheers.
This is either the shrine I stepped on, or one that looks a lot like it. In my defense, it was basically right behind my chair when I was sitting having my drink. I was SO MORTIFIED when I did it. But the waiter says it happens a lot. Perhaps they should find a different place to put it. HA
When in Hoi An, we took bicycles around the countryside. Between the rice fields.
This is a photo of a famous post card in Vietnam. Its supposed to be the oldest couple in Vietnam.
Cool statue. We stopped at a lookout point when traveling from Hue to Hoi An. The top of the Hai Van Pass. I bought a Buddha stone necklace (for about $3) and snapped this photo of a cool statue.
A cool bike in Hoi An made of bamboo. Bamboo and coconut are so commont, they are used for many many things.
One of Laney’s favorites – dragon fruit. Everyone in the group knew, if they didn’t want theirs, Laney would eat it. HA
Beautiful wildflowers growing along the rice fields.
AND, here I am with that famous old couple from the postcard. We visited their organic farm and got to try a few things like watering the garden manually. He’s like 97 and she is like 90 if memory serves. Obviously, that’s a pretty long time to live – for anyone, but more so when you consider the average lifespan in Vietnam is less than 60 years! that’s like someone in the US living to 120..
Water buffalo were very common in Vietnam. Grazing in or near the rice fields. We had the opportunity to have a photo taken while ON the buffalo. I chose to take a selfie. HA
A snack served before our ‘boat’ ride. We were to ride on coracles, which are small round boats powered by paddle
Gorgeous palms (I guess they are some kind of palm) on the edges of the waterways.
A grasshopper ring that my boat ‘captain’ made for me from a leaf!
and a beautiful flower!
HA! This guy nailed it. A fishing pole and fish for me! Again, he made it in 5 minutes from a leaf nearby. So cool. I couldn’t take it with me so I gave it to Stan (friend on the tour) for his grandson
We went to a noodle making class in Hoi An. It is sponsored by the tour company G-Adventures. Its such a cool concept, I could see coming back here. The organization, Streets, takes young people from impoverished conditions and trains them in the food and restaurant industry. They teach them too cook, or serve, and graduates from here are much in demand at the high-end establishments around Vietnam. The course INCLUDES learning English and it’s an 18-month program. This may be a great volunteer opportunity for me in the future.
This is launching the boat – but on the way back to the ‘dock’ / land, we raced, and, of course, my boat won. Well, because I had to. HA. I paddled as hard as I could, with absolutely no mind to steering. The ‘professional’ probably had a hard time keeping us on course. Steering a ROUND boat is pretty tough! HA.
Lanterns around Hoi An. So beautiful day and night.
Laney trying her hand at being a Vietnamese street vendor. It was HEAVY! Good, go to college. HA.
Oh Look, an Irish Pub. How shocking. I swear there is one everywhere. AND, we were in Vietnam on St. Pattys’.
My favorite motorbike I saw in Vietnam. This was in Hoi An.
Most expensive drink I had in Vietnam. And the cheapest dirty martini I’ve ever had in a bar/restaurant. Maybe $4??
A common sight – restaurants serving on the sidewalk.
While in Hoi An, we floated some lighted lanterns on the river for some special people in our lives. Laney and I each did one for my Mom, and I did one for Mai Hong, a Vietnamese girl in my class in grade school, who was killed in 8th grade. Jackie, a Canadian woman we became close to on the tour, and her husband, Jim, lit one for their moms too. We definitely bonded over missing moms.
Beautiful sights from the river
Another Irish pub. Not a seat in the house on St Patty’s night! Live Irish Music and everything.
This is a dragon fruit tree. FREAKY LOOKING right?? We visited an island in the Mekong Delta where the residents grow fruit. The Mekong experience was SO much fun. Boats, and tuk tuks and sleeping al fresco.
Dorian fruit tree (I think – they look similar to Jack fruit so I’m not 100% sure)
Special tea they served on the fruit island.
These urns, as you can see, collect the rainwater from the roof of the home.
Durian fruit
I think the small fruits above are eaten by the locals and give a booze/cigarette kind of high. If you eat like 50-100 a day. HA
Snacks served with honey tea that remind me of peanut brittle. Same same but different. HA.
Crazy flower growing at the bee farm
Honey tea served at the bee farm. We got to hold the hive ‘drawers’ which were crawling with bees, and get a fingerful of honey right from it! Very cool. Laney, of course, passed on that experience.
This is also a pineapple plant, and also one for decoration. Personally, I think this looks AWFUL! Some kind of abomination of nature. Yuck.
Making chocolate. These are the cocoa seeds. We were each allowed to ‘eat’ one, which is really just sucking the soft/slimy stuff off of the inner hard seed, which is where the cocoa comes from. We saw the process for making chocolate and were able to try some.
Probably Laney’s favorite part of the Mekong Delta trip – holding this (king?) python. It’s a constrictor, so not poisonous. It was SUPER HEAVY though. She wouldn’t touch the bee hive, but THIS, well, this is OK. HA
OK I liked it too. HA
Cocao pods
Man fishing on a tributary of the Mekong
Women hand-wrapping the coconut (and other flavor) candies.
Snake Whiskey. Yes, we drank some. It was good!
All of these are made with coconut wood. SO beautiful, wish I could have brought some home!!
Laney and Laila in traditional Vietnamese hats. Laney doing this somewhat under duress. HA
Beautiful flowers growing from this old tree.
Awesome place we stopped for lunch
Pond and decorative stones at the restaurant.
me and my travel buddy.
These beautiful plants were growing on top of the water, when a boat when by, the whole thing moved, like a green plant-wave.
Getting around the Mekong, between the islands, we had a motor boat. But to get to our homestay for the night, we left one of the islands in a canoe type boat. Followed by a walk, a (rather exciting) tuk tuk ride, and a bit of a walk again. Jackie and Jim joined us in our little boat. And yes the hats are helpful for keeping cool! They really keep the sun off your face and shoulders and are much needed! Funny how we were cold in SaPa and then hot most of the rest of Vietnam. It’s a very long country.
A very unique looking coconut that grows on these trees.
Close up of that crazy coconut
Tunnel of palms as we a ride a small boat on a tributary of the Mekong, on our way to our homestay
Tuk Tuk rides with sugar cane juice
Home for the night! Basic beds under cover, open air, with mosquito nets.
Rocky taking a rare breather. Rocky was our guide on this G Adventures tour.
Chilling in the hammock at the homestay
The tiny rickety bridge we walked over when we left the homestay.
Its not very big. Or very stable. But it’s not a long fall and probably not deep water, so no biggie. HA
Beautiful flowers. Same as our cannas but different flowers.
Cococut milk on the way. back to the mainland.
Map of the Mekong Delta and the islands we visited
Display representing the Cu Chi Tunnels as they were used in the Vietnam War (as it is known in the US). In Vietnam, it’s called the American war (although the French had a lot to do with it, they aren’t mentioned). There are multiple levels. Meeting and eating rooms at the top could be used unless there was bombing, in which case the lower tunnels had to be used. In a worst case scenario, the Viet Cong had to exit via the tunnel far lower right, into water.
One type of entry into the tunnels, the most common, is a very small hole in the ground, covered by a small platform and leaves. Almost impossible to see when closed.
This is the cover still slightly raised. And it’s nearly invisible.
Another type of entry, much more visible. Were used under cover (tarp, etc,) in main areas where the Viet Cong were based.
We saw MANY of these while there. Different types of traps set up by the Viet Cong in the jungles. Our guide ‘admitted’ that they were short on manpower and weapons and so they had to use what they and and emphasis was put on psychological warfare. Not only to eliminate the enemy but to make it ugly and painful to destroy morale. Falling into this, with spinning bars with spikes, which puncture all over your body – would definitely accomplish that. And, like I said, this is only one of many examples that we saw. Pretty gruesome and scary.
In HCMC (Ho Chi Minh City, formerly known as Saigon) there is a great street food market, which was very near our hotel, so we went there a few times.
Laney’s Cheesesteak from the Street Food Market. Served with CHOP STICKS??
Beautiful building in HCMC
Lemongrass mojito on our farewell dinner
Highest cocktails in HCMC, the round platform at the top is a helicopter pad. Pretty cool.
View from the tower
my fancy drink
Random photo, but this is the ceiling of a car I drove in to go to a cooking class. It was not unusual for cars and vans and even buses in Vietnam to have the ceiling covered in plastic.
Cool multi-colored lights on the building next to the tower where we had cocktails.
After the tour ended, Laney and I had booked an airbnb for a few nights. It had 2 bedrooms, so we had some extra space, which is nice. What was also great was our friend Laila from the tour joined us for a night.
The airbnb we stayed in HCMC had a locked door AND a gate to be locked every night! we were quite secure. HA.
Our airbnb in HCMC, where we went after the tour was over, was down this small alley lined with local restaurants, which are basically food trucks and seats. Our coffee shop, right outside our door, made amazing coffee, and we had 3 for less than what we paid for 1 coffee near our tour hotel. I thought SEA was pretty cheap when paying tourist prices. But local prices are crazy cheap! HA
We didnt plan much for our extra nights at the Airbnb. As usual, after a ‘always moving’ tour, we were pretty tired. I went for drinks with Laila and met a few from our group at the tower I mentioned above.
A day or two later I attended a cooking class I had booked a while back. It was a bit of a drive out of town (like an hour), which I could have done without after all the driving and traveling we had done on the tour, but it was SO worth it!! I went in the afternoon and I was the ONLY ONE in the class!
Garden where the cooking class was held. A lizard is at the top of that middle sunflower. As an organic farm, there are no pesticides used, and, as a result, there are lots of frogs and lizards to take care of the bugs!
Above a front view of the mushrooms. My guide explained a complicated mixture of ingredients that go into these bottles, and explained that, once that is done, the amount of mushrooms you see here (the big ones) will grow in 24 hours!! Can you imagine? I bet if you sat for a bit, you could actually SEE them grow
Close up of the mushrooms at the farm where my cooking class was held.
Some of my fresh ingredients from the garden for my cooking. (my mouth is watering thinking about the food).
These are the spring rolls I made. So good. Deep fried, which is not normally my thing, but I was told if the temperature is right, hardly any oil is absorbed. Plus, they are served with LOTS of fresh greens. The traditional way to eat them – pile up a bunch of greens, wrap them around the spring rolls – so there is really more greens than anything. SO SO YUMMY!!
There is a big frog near the edge of the patio here. If you can see it.
The amazing dishes I prepared in the cooking class. SO YUMMY!
Many houses in Vietnam were very tall, and not wide. We were told this was because when the French imposed taxes, they were based on ground floor square footage – so you could go higher without paying more taxes. HUH. Makes sense now. HA. Buildings in Vietnam were VERY varied. Like all of South East Asia, I imagine. Beautiful, perfect ones next to run-down ones.
Laney and I went out to dinner and met this nice woman, Sasha, from South Africa. Sasha got certified in Thailand to teach English and the company sent her to work in HCMC. She is provided a salary, plus a place to live and a motorbike. Hmm might be a good early retirement plan! Sasha and I have stayed in touch on Facebook.. I hope to visit her in South Africa or somewhere else in the future. She’s fun! HA
I so wanted to get one of these painted hats. Doesn’t pack or ship well, though. HA.
That was it for Vietnam! Off to Borneo next! More jungle. Laney, not happy. HA!

Special prayers were held in this mountainous district of Ladakh in Jammu and Kashmir for the long life of Tibetan spiritual leader the Dalai Lama, who turned 83 on Friday.
Large crowds donning traditional dresses began to assemble since morning at the Shewatsel Phodrang complex on the outskirts of Leh for the celebrations. The Dalai Lama, revered by the Tibetans as a “living god”, attended the prayers and blessed the gathering.
“This time again His Holiness decided to celebrate his birthday with the people of Leh,” a spokesperson for the Dalai Lama’s office told IANS.
Tibetan Prime Minister Lobsang Sangay also attended the celebrations here. Officials of the Dalai Lama’s office said the spiritual leader would stay in Shewatsel Phodrang in Leh till the end of July.
“I am very happy to be here once more,” the spiritual leader told the gathering on reaching here on Tuesday.
“I seem to be physically fit and if that continues I hope to spend some time here, avoiding the monsoon on the plains. You people of Ladakh have a special bond with me based on your faith and loving-kindness, of which I am very appreciative,” he added.
During his stay in Leh, the Dalai Lama would participate in religious ceremonies, conduct meditational retreats and deliver teachings.
The Dalai Lama’s sermons on ethics, non-violence, peace and religious harmony have made him one of the 20th century’s most revered spiritual leaders.
Born on July 6, 1935, at Taktser hamlet in northeastern Tibet, the Dalai Lama was recognised at the age of two as the reincarnation of the 13th Dalai Lama, Thubten Gyatso. He fled Tibet after a failed uprising against the Chinese rule in 1959.
The Dalai Lama was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 1989 for his non-violent campaign for democracy and freedom in his homeland. Since fleeing to India, he has spent his time in exile pushing for autonomy for Tibet.
India is home to around 100,000 Tibetans.(IANS)

Back pain causes discomfort and displeasure that can make living life difficult. The following advice in the article below is sure to help people who are dealing with the effects of back discomfort, and who want to feel better in their everyday life. Read through them carefully and find the ones that apply to you!
Never ignore your back pain. There are many people who refuse to pay heed to painful signals their body is sending. They attempt to ignore things to get rid of back discomfort. Trying to work through your pain will only make it worse. You need to take everything slow and easy until your pain is more bearable.
TIP! Even though it is painful and serious, a back injury rarely receives immediate medical treatment. In the day or two they have to wait, a lot of people with such injuries find it hard to get comfortable in any position.
When engaging in household chores such as vacuuming or mopping floors, resist the inclination to slouch. Leaning over a vacuum cleaner, or hunching over a sink full of dishes, can exacerbate back pain. Stand tall and straight while you move the vacuum using leg muscles rather than your back.
Regular visits to a chiropractor can help prevent back discomfort, and are important if you have genetic tendencies to back problems, or have a stressful lifestyle that makes you prone to injuries. Consulting a chiropractor on a regular basis could help you in fixing the small problems before they become serious injuries.
Be certain your diet is healthy and nutritious and includes eight good glasses of daily water. A nutritious diet provides you with many things that can help you, one of them being the prevention of back pain. When you eat well, you can maintain a normal body weight and this not only keeps you feeling healthy but also reduces stress on your back.
TIP! A good fitness regimen could help you prevent back pains. As an example, yoga teaches flexibility and helps prevent awkward, excessive, or otherwise unnecessary straining.
If you have back pain, getting stressed about it will just aggravate it further. Instead, discover ways to relax so there is less chance you will experience spasms in your back muscles. Take the time to rest and apply moist heat to the injured areas to alleviate the pain in your back.
There are many kinds of medications for back discomfort, including over the counter and prescription medications. It is crucial that you consult a physician before you make any decisions about medication. Sometimes and over-the-counter medicine is enough and other times you might need a prescribed medication from your physician.
Two third of the adult population suffers from back discomfort at some point. Many people think one event, or something that happens right before they experience the pain, is what caused it to happen. Quite often, only the latest in a sequence of events contribute to back discomfort.
TIP! Avoid slouching, even if performing common household chores like vacuuming. Back pain from vacuuming is a result of the constant pushing and pulling of the vacuum that causes you to slouch.
Contrary to popular belief, a person who suffers from a bad back should exercise frequently. Those who suffer from back pain often believe that exercise can further harm them, when in actuality, it is extremely beneficial. Properly stretching the back muscles is a great pain reliever for lots of people.
Be cautious about how you sleep at night. While a prone sleeping position may not be your favorite option, it can help you to avoid back pain. For added relief, you may place a heating pad under your body. Never sleep on your stomach.
You may find that cutting back on caffeine may help alleviate back pain. Even though it may be hard to believe, caffeine can assist in triggering muscle spasms. Caffeine can also produce inflammation in damaged muscles. Cutting back on sodas, tea and coffee will eliminate most caffeine from your diet.
TIP! Lifting items that are far away is often due to time constraints and laziness. Many individuals try to find the easiest and quickest way possible to do things.
Time spent in automobiles is on the rise, and has been singled out as a source of back discomfort for many people. In order to minimize back strain, make sure you can reach the pedals and the wheel without stretching too much.
Stretching can have a very therapeutic affect on back pain, and doing so while the muscles are already warmed up is even better. After exercising, stretch well during cool-down time.
For many people who are looking to cure their back discomfort, the first location they need to look in is right in their ashtray. Smoking causes spinal disc degeneration, and can reduce the flow of the blood.
TIP! Breast implants may be popular but women who are naturally endowed often seek a reduction to ease their back problems. If you are a woman and suffer from back pain, discuss with your doctor whether your breasts could be elevating your problems.
Proper breathing and relaxation are great remedies for back pain. Find out more about these methods and try using anything that usually makes you feel relaxed. You might find that this makes the pain easier to bear.
If you spend long hours sitting in an office chair, bring a small footstool in to use if your back starts to hurt. As soon as you start to feel pain, put your feet on the stool. The elevation will help to prevent pain or help to relieve it if you are already experiencing pain.
When back pain leaves you immobile, try to stretch the surrounding back muscles, perhaps even your hamstrings, to give the body a little relief. Your large back muscles spans the torso, so a painful back affects your whole body. Stretch all the surrounding muscles.
TIP! Anxiety over back pain will only worsen your condition. Try and relax so as not to worsen any discomfort you already feel, and prevent muscle spasms.
If you must sit in an office chair during most of your workday, and you have back discomfort, make sure the chair provides enough back support for you. If the lumbar area of the back is not properly supported, a lot of back pain can result. Buy a special pillow that you can place behind your back’s lumbar region to provide the needed support.
Keep your back supported! An articulating arm is equipment that is helpful in limiting back strain at work. This device supports your computer monitor and allows it to be moved to a comfortable position.
The guidelines written in this article have helped various people that experience discomforts caused by back discomfort. This information can help you, too, if you use the advice that will work for your condition.

So you've decided to do Veganuary, but your plan is to survive on instant ramen for 31 days. Does that sound like full plant-potential to you? HECK NO IT DOES NOT
There's a huge difference between clawing your way through a hellish month of plant-based food and knowing how to slay Veganuary. And when I say slay, I mean S-L-A-Y! That's the opposite of surviving on dehydrated noodles and MSG.
That's why I'm here. I'm here to guide your mind, body and fridge through the most joyful initiation to this sexy-ass vegetable cult. Regardless of why you've decided to do Veganuary, here are my seven steps to making sure this year is your most successful yet!
This was one of the most important things I did when I first went vegan. Yeah, it sounds like classic vegan hippy nonsense, but bear with me! In my first week of eating plant-based I was accidentally served a beyond burger topped with real cheese. I came this close to turning a blind eye and tucking in anyway. But I couldn't - in part because of my mantra, circling round in my head.
My mantra was (and still is) the simple, catchy phrase "Don't be a dick". It works for me because it cuts to the core of why I chose to go vegan; because it's the right thing to do! Your mantra should be something that does the same for you - so spend some time getting it right - then write it down, take a picture of it and save it as your phone wallpaper. BINGO!
2. Prepare and stock up!
Veganuary, at it's crux, is just a really drawn out eating challenge. So it makes sense to focus on what you're ACTUALLY GONNA EAT! Make sure you've always got enough bits and pieces in your fridge or pantry to be able to whip up a bangin' vegan din din!
Head over to my instagram and check out my highlight called "Veganuary" for a list of my top vegan stock cupboard ingredients. You'll never be tempted to just order in a pizza - I promise!
Before I knew how to slay Veganuary, I made a few pretty classic errors. I assumed I could go from eating a kilo of cheddar each week to eating a kilo of massaged kale for each meal. Gurl, please.
You're much more likely to succeed if you aim for "realistic vegan" rather than "peak vegan". Sure, you're gonna need to fill the fridge with a bunch of veggies but don't feel shame about filling your freezer with some plant-based ready meals too (or even just frozen potato products)! Chances are you're not going to want to cook a raw spirulina lasagna fro scratch for every meal (or any meal) and it's important you prepare for that.
If you're in the UK, my pals over at Wicked Kitchen make some stunning ready meals for TESCO which you can find in all of their big stores.
As a 98% introvert (no, seriously!) I tend to deal with challenges by self-imposing a few weeks in solitary, despite knowing that this is the worst thing you can do!
Thankfully though, I've come to learn (mostly through School Night Vegan) that my favourite thing about being plant-based is the community I get to access. It's like a crazy friendly private members club and there are WAY fewer white dreadlocks than I expected to find! You're also much more likely to succeed if you're surrounded by people with similar ethics who support what you're doing and why you're doing it.
Whether it's IRL or online, talk to people about what you're doing and share your experience! It actually feels really nice (says my extrovert 2%).
If you're really going to learn how to slay Veganuary, you'll have to master the art of EATING OUT! My gold-star vegan pals assure me this is much easier than it used to be back in the lentil ages, but it can still be a challenge depending on your location.
My tip is to use the google maps app and drop stars on any vegan friendly restaurants or cafes you'd like to try. That way, when you're caught out at lunch time, you won't panic and eat a pork pie!
If you're struggling to find vegan spots on your own, I like to use the apps by A Billion Veg and Happy Cow for easy, location-based advice on where to eat vegan.
If you're new to vegan cooking, the idea of whipping up a meal using only plants can be spooky as all hell. Where do I start?? Is this healthy? Is pasta water vegan???
First off, just chill! You're gonna be cool! Start things off with a recipe or two and you'll soon realise how simple the process is. I like to browse through instagram and save all the recipes I fancy to a little folder (hold the little bookmark symbol to the bottom right of any post).
After a long day at work, it can be tricky to be inspired about cooking, but if you've got a nice little folder of din din ideas, you won't struggle quite so much! Oh and make sure you keep them quick and comforting, like this Beyond Burger Lasagna or this Vegan Shepherd's Pie.
7. Track and reward!
Last, but not least - the only way you're gonna slay Veganuary is by keeping track of your progress and rewarding yourself! The first few successful days of Veganuary are borderline euphoric, but as time goes by, you can lose track of how far you've come and what a struggle it's been.
I'd highly recommend either journaling or pinning up a month calendar and ticking off each day. Writing stuff down has a way of making it feel more real and when you treat yourself for nailing each week of vegan food, you'll look forward to the next week.
Why not bake a batch of my Vegan Millionaires Shortbread, slice them into four, freeze them and have a slab at the end of each week!
As always, I'll be updating my instagram with a bunch of new recipes over the month of January, so make sure you follow me if you're not already. It'll hopefully be a CONSTANT source of plant-spiration.
Oh and remember, you've got this, welcome to the sexy-ass vegetable cult, and don't be a dick!

I think the best thing I did when going vegan was to recognize how many of the foods I already ate were vegan: pasta and marinara, hummus and pita, pb&j sandwiches, bean chili...etc. From there, it's easy to think about how to make foods you love vegan with a simple "nut milk" or "veggie broth" swap: soups, cereal, mashed potatoes... Before you know it, you have a list of easy-prep meals! Obviously you won't eat the same things every day, but when you see how often you already eat vegan without trying, it transforms the mountain into a hill.
Also, the easiest type of restaurants to eat vegan at in the US seem to be Tex-Mex and Thai. If you go to one of those, you're usually guaranteed to get a whole meal

‘Held without interruption since 1769, the Summer Exhibition displays works in a variety of mediums and genres by emerging and established artists ‘ Royal Academy.
This year the guest curator at the Summer Exhibition was British sculptor Richard Wilson RA. Entry to the Exhibition is open to all artists and over 1200 pictures were hung in the rooms by a panel of Royal Academians. The installation in the courtyard is a crane by artist Ron Avad .Inside there are many works by renowned duos this year such as Heather and Ivan Morrison and there is always the bizarre as in the lifesize statue of Iggy Pop. Most works are for sale and proceeds help with the funding of Royal Academy Schools.
There are a maximum of 80 Academicians and new members are only voted in when an existing member reaches the age of 75 or dies. The newly elected Academian produces a Diploma Work for the Academy , which becomes part of the Academy Collection. All new members receive a Diploma signed by the Queen.
Charles Ernst Cundall 1890- 1971 was a regular exhibitor at the RA and was elected an associate member in 1937 and a full member in 1944. He was born in Stretford, Lancashire. After working as a designer of pottery and stained glass at the Pilkingtons factory he studied at the Manchester School of art and gained a scholarship to the Royal College of Art in 1912 . He enlisted as a royal Fusilier in WW1 and badly injured his right arm. Before returning to College in 1918 he had to relearn to paint using his left. Afterwards he attended the Slade School of Art and then studied in Paris before travelling extensively. His first solo show was in 1927. He became a full time admiralty artist and also worked on a major painting of the Commemoration Ceremony of the Battle of Britain in 1943. King George V1 purchased two of Cundall’s works. Cundall’s best known work was The Withdrawal from Dunkirk June 1940.
Works by Charles Cundall are notably held at the Imperial War Museum and the RAF Museum and in other collections throughout Great Britain including Manchester City Art Gallery and Southampton City Art Gallery.

This is a picture from the Royal Museums Collection of a model of a Hastings lugger.
The luggers were large fishing boats, up to 55 feet long, with three masts. A crew of 8-10 men roamed the North Sea and Western English Channel searching for herring and mackeral.
As well as notable Academians such as Cundall who grow in stature through membership of the academy, many artists become successful after training at the Academy . The Scottish sisters Doris and Anna Zinkeisen attended the RA Schools in 1917.
Anna was a portraitist and she became a well known society painter. She was also well known for her equestrian portraiture and scenes of London parks as shown in her painting of Lady Caroline Lamb riding through Hyde Park.
Anna Zinkeisen studied sculpture at the RA Schools between 1916 and 1921 winning a silver and a bronze medal. She first exhibited at the Royal Academy in 1919. Anna was a medical artist in WWII. Her self- portrait and her painting of plastic surgeon Sir Archibald McIndore are exhibited at the National Portrait gallery, London. She has also painted HRH Prince Phillip, Sir Alexander Fleming and Lord Beaverbrooke.
This is one of her delightful paintings of spring flowers.
Former RA Schools illustrious students include JMW Turner and John Everett Millais. Each year the RA Schools accepts no more than 17 new students and there is an annual exhibition of their works.

When it comes to termites, you’ll find that just about all of your prospects and customers know the risks involved. Termites are infamous for their ability to infest an area, cause costly damage, or even destroy a home. When homeowners find out that they have termites, it doesn’t take much convincing to sell them on taking steps to eliminate the problem.
Making homeowners aware of the problem before it becomes a glaring issue though, can be a challenge. While termite swarms are often an indicator of a problem on the property that can quickly spread to the home itself, many homeowners may not even suspect that the cloud of flying insects they see is, in fact, a termite swarm. Sooner or later they’ll end up seeing a termite swarm in their house.
Alerting Homeowners to the Presence of Termite Swarms
Depending on their past experiences with termites—if they’ve had any—many homeowners may be entirely unaware of how to recognize termites on their own property. While your technicians can call a customer’s attention to signs of termites during a service visit and educate them on what you can do about the problem, many other homeowners are simply unaware that they have a problem.
By strategically using email marketing and social posting, you can inform prospects on what they should be on the lookout for when it comes to termites. Even better, you’ll also ensure that your pest control company is top of mind if they do discover that they have a problem or want a professional opinion. Here are some of the key identifiers that you’re already familiar with which your potential customers may not be.
Many customers may ask:
“What do termite swarms look like?”
These questions and more can easily be addressed with email marketing and social posting.
When the average homeowner thinks of termites, they likely jump to an unsettling image of a nondescript bug burrowing into the studs of their house. If they’ve never had a termite problem before, they may not even be aware that termites can fly.
By sharing posts or emails that focus on the idea of termite swarms—ideally with a photo or two—you can let your customers know that termites can appear similar to winged ants and are often airborne surrounding an area where the colony has taken up residence. Let them know that they should investigate these areas for decaying trees, roots, or other wooden materials. By helping homeowners to identify potential termite swarms, you afford them the opportunity to deal with the colony before it is well established or comes closer to their home.
While your team of pest control experts can spot termite mud tubes a mile away, the average homeowner may not think twice about them. Especially when the tubes only first start to appear, some homeowners may just think that they’re marks left by dripping water and hose them away.
By letting your customers and prospects know what mud tubes are, what they indicate, and where to look for them—again, sharing photos on social media can be both powerful and informative—you give them the knowledge they need to potentially identify a problem early on. This is not only a better situation for the homeowner, but also creates the opportunity for you to offer your services, show them the quality of customer service you provide, and turn them into a return customer for all of their future pest control needs.
Once homeowners are aware of a termite problem, they tend to recognize that addressing it isn’t optional; it’s a matter of necessity. If your post or email helped them to recognize their termite issue, then you’ve already helped to ensure that your pest control company is top of mind for them. To help them commit to enlisting your services, it’s important to ensure they know exactly what their options are and how you can help.
Even before a homeowner requests a consultation or estimate, you can start selling your services by sharing some insight into how you can help with their problem. Posts or emails that emphasize your expertise, the different methods of treating termites, and anything that sets your pest control business apart from others can be key to bringing in that new business.
Consider putting together a post that details the differences between spot treatment and full treatment. Explain the time that each treatment takes to highlight the value of each, as well as how effective each method is. Don’t hesitate to point out any steps or details that are specific to your business, as this can help to emphasize how knowledgeable your team is and begin building trust with potential customers. For instance, does your pest control business offer any type of guarantee or follow up visit with either approach? Pointing this out can help differentiate you from other companies.
This is also a great opportunity to highlight the importance of ongoing, preventative treatment methods like Sentricon integrated pest management. Highlighting the benefits of this system and the peace of mind that it provides can help you to turn a homeowner with termites into a recurring customer who knows that they can count on your company to protect their home with long-term pest control solutions.
By making targeted efforts to use email and social media to educate your audience about identifying termite swarms and other evidence of termites, you cultivate an environment in which your prospects and customers think of your company first if or when they encounter signs of termites.To learn more about how PestPac can help you to get that information in front of more prospects, and also how it can help you provide outstanding service to customers with termites, reach out to us today to schedule a free demo.
We’ve put together an email template you can use to help keep your customers informed on termite problems and how your pest control company can help!

Students at occupational schools can learn hundreds of specialized skills to land jobs in fields ranging from airplane maintenance to culinary arts, but accusations that these for-profit schools use misleading recruiting practices and encourage students to take on loans they cannot afford have lawmakers calling for more oversight.
"It is upon the legislature and the administration to try to provide the best-quality training and programs. This is a step towards that," Sen. Michael Moore, D-Milbury, co-chair of the Joint Committee on Higher Education, said Tuesday.
Last week, the committee recommended legislation that would transfer oversight of the schools from the Education Department to the state agency that handles professional licensing, a move that would intensify scrutiny of the industry.
Under the proposal, proprietary schools in the state would be monitored by and registered with a new office in the Division of Professional Licensure, allowing the agency to investigate consumer complaints made by students, and ensure the quality of programs.
Moore and co-chair Rep. Tom Sannicandro, D-Ashland, said students told the committee about recruiters giving them false information about the school or career prospects, or the school tacking on extra fees unexpectedly. In one case, the dean of a college took the admission test for a prospective student.
Some students who completed their school’s training program were not able to pass state licensing or certification tests required to get a job.
"Many for-profit schools are great and provide great service, but there are some taking advantage of a certain population," Sannicandro said.

Russia-Ukraine war: Russian maps appear to show rapid withdrawals in east and south; US promises more weapons to Kyiv – live
Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelenskiy thanked US president Joe Biden for his “continued defence and financial support” in a phone call today, AFP reports.
Zelenskiy said in a statement that the two sides discussed “additional sanctions (and) the situation on the battlefield”. The White House announced earlier today that it would be providing $625m (£544m) in new military aid, which would include High Mobility Artillery Rocket System (Himars) launchers. Zelenskiy wrote:
I am grateful to the President of the United States and the entire American people for the continued defence and financial support … I was pleased to hear the words of President Biden that our servicemen inspire the whole world, our people inspire the whole world.”
Ukraine already has access to 16 of the Himars systems, AFP noted, adding that the US state department has confirmed that the US has now sent more than $16.8 billion in aid since the invasion began.
Zelenskiy announces military progress and reportedly liberated regions in Ukraine
Ukrainian president, Volodymyr Zelenskiy, announced that dozens of regions in Ukraine have been liberated from Russian occupation, seemingly confirming information from Russia’s maps that show Russia withdrawing from eastern and western Ukraine.
During an address today, Zelenskiy said the country’s armed forces were making progress against Russia in the southern part of the country.
“Today we have good news from the front line. First: the Ukrainian army is making quite fast and powerful progress in the south of our country as part of the current defence operation,” said Zelenskiy.
The president also announced that dozens of regions have been reportedly released from Russian occupation: “Dozens of settlements have already been exempted from the Russian pseudo-referendum this week alone,” he said.
He added: “This [has happened] in Kherson region, Kharkiv region, Luhansk region and Donetsk region … In particular, according to the military reports from the Kherson region: the settlements of Lyubimivka, Khreshchenivka, Zolota Balka, Bilyaivka, Ukrainka, Velyka and Mala Oleksandrivka, and Davidiv Brid were liberated from the occupier and stabilised.”
Zelenskiy noted that the list of released territories is not complete, vowing to continue fighting against Russian forces: “And this is far from a complete list. Our soldiers do not stop. And it’s only a matter of time before we expel the occupier from all of our land.”

The UN rights office has warned that Russia’s claimed annexation of Ukrainian territory could worsen human rights violations in the area, reported AFP:
Russia’s claimed annexation of Ukraine territory will only exacerbate human rights violations, the UN rights office said Tuesday as it outlined the “unspeakable suffering and devastation” inflicted on Ukrainians.
Christian Salazar Volkmann, presenting a report on rights in Ukraine to the UN Human Rights Council in Geneva, said UN experts had documented “a range of violations of the rights to life, liberty and security”.
“The Russian Federation’s wide-scale armed attack has resulted in a dire human rights situation across Ukraine,” the UN rights office’s field operations chief said.
“The people in Ukraine have experienced unspeakable suffering and devastation.”
He said the office’s Human Rights Monitoring Mission, which has been present in Ukraine since 2014, had documented 6,114 civilians killed since Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine on February 24, stressing though that “the real figures are likely considerably higher.”

The US has urged Russia to provide a counter-offer to its attempts to broker the release of WNBA star Brittney Griner, reported Reuters, calling Griner’s upcoming court date to appeal her sentence “a sham”.
“We are aware of Russia’s announcement that Brittney Griner will be forced to undergo another sham judicial proceeding. She should be released immediately,” said the White House press secretary, Karine Jean-Pierre, during a briefing today, reported AFP.
The White house said today that it has offered to swap Viktor Bout, the jailed arms dealer, for Griner and Paul Whelan, a former US Marine who has been incarcerated in Russia since 2018.
Jean-Pierre told reporters that the US has yet to receive a serious response from Russia. “We need to see a serious counter-offer,” said Jean-Pierre.
Griner has been incarcerated in Russia since February and was sentenced to nine years in Russian prison.
The court date to appeal her sentence is set for 25 October.

The United States said today that there is no indication Russia is preparing to use nuclear weapons, Reuters reported, despite posturing from Vladimir Putin.
White House press secretary, Karine Jean-Pierre, said during a briefing that despite “nuclear saber rattling”, there are no signs that the Russia is planning to actually use such weapons.
“We take any nuclear weapons or nuclear saber rattling very seriously here, but I do want to say … that we have not seen any reason to adjust our own strategic nuclear posture, nor do we have any indication that Russia is preparing to imminently use nuclear weapons,” Jean-Pierre said.
Putin has escalated the more than seven month war in Ukraine with a military mobilisation and warnings of nuclear weapons use.

Ukraine’s economy is set to contract by 35%, the World Bank reported on Tuesday, as the country deals with Russia’s ongoing invasion.
The international financial institution described Ukraine’s economy as “scarred by the destruction of productive capacity, damage to agricultural land, and reduced labor supply” in an economic update for Europe and Central Asia, reported AFP.
The World Bank also estimated that upwards of 14 million people have been displaced by the war, with recovery and rebuilding efforts billed at $349bn, 1.5 times the size of Ukraine’s pre-war economy.
The US gave Ukraine an additional $12.3bn in aid last week to help the war-torn country in its fight against Russia, AFP further reported.

Here is what’s happened so far today with the ongoing conflict in Ukraine:
The US president, Joe Biden, told the Ukrainian president, Volodymyr Zelenskiy, that Washington will provide Kyiv with $625m (£544m) in new security assistance, including High Mobility Artillery Rocket System (Himars) launchers, the White House said.
Russian defence ministry maps appear to show rapid withdrawals of Russian invasion forces from areas in eastern and southern Ukraine where they have been under severe pressure from a Ukrainian counteroffensive.
Russia is at risk of losing control of the strategic towns critical to retaining the city of Kherson and eventually Crimea, western officials said, but they warned the fighting along the Dnipro River “will not be an easy rush into constrained territory”.
The European Union has summoned Russia’s envoy to condemn and reject Moscow’s “illegal annexation” of the Donetsk, Kherson, Luhansk and Zaporizhzhia regions of Ukraine , the EU diplomatic service has said.
Vladimir Putin is “likely” to sign laws to incorporate four Ukrainian territories into Russia during the course of the day , according to the Kremlin spokesperson, Dmitry Peskov.

Giorgia Meloni, set to become Italy’s next prime minister, promised “her full support” for Ukraine on Tuesday in a phone call with the Ukrainian president, Volodymyr Zelenskiy, her Brothers of Italy party said.
In one of her first calls with a foreign leader since winning an election last week, Meloni “underlined her commitment to every diplomatic effort useful for ending the conflict” with Russia, the party statement said.
It added that Zelenskiy had invited her to visit Kyiv as soon as possible and had expressed his gratitude for the arms that Italy had sent Ukraine following the Russian invasion.
Meloni has been one of the few Italian political leaders to wholeheartedly endorse outgoing prime minister Mario Draghi’s decision to ship weapons to Ukraine, even though she was in opposition to his government.
By contrast, Meloni’s two political allies, the League and Forza Italia, which were both in Draghi’s coalition, have been much more ambivalent, reflecting their historically close ties with the Russian president, Vladimir Putin.
Underscoring the depth of those ties, Forza Italia leader Silvio Berlusconi said last month that Putin had been “pushed” into invading Ukraine and had wanted to put “decent people” in charge in Kyiv.

Ukraine has continued to liberate territory in the east and the south , Volodymyr Zelenskiy has said, as Russian defence ministry maps appeared to show rapid withdrawals of its invasion forces, reports Guardian correspondent Isobel Koshiw in Kyiv.
The ministry’s daily video briefing made no mention of any pullbacks, but on maps used to show the location of purported Russian strikes, the shaded area designating Russian military control was much smaller than the day before.
The maps included in Tuesday’s daily military briefing showed that Russian forces were no longer in control of the village of Dudchany on the west bank of the Dnieper River, where Ukraine’s forces have been pushing to reclaim territory captured at the start of Moscow’s offensive.
In the north-eastern Kharkiv region, where Kyiv’s run of battlefield victories began in early September, Russian defence ministry maps showed that its forces have left positions on the west bank of the Oskil River.
Western officials said at a briefing on Tuesday that Ukraine was currently dictating the operational tempo on the battlefield and doubted whether Russia had the ambition or ability to return to the offensive.

The Associated Press has analysis on what Russia’s retreat from a key Ukrainian city over the weekend means:
Frustration with the battlefield setbacks has long been expressed in social media blogs run by nationalist pundits and pro-Kremlin analysts, and the volume grew after Ukraine’s counteroffensive last month around Kharkiv in the north-east. But it is now spilling out on state TV broadcasts and in the pages of government-backed newspapers.
The less conciliatory tone from state-run media comes as President Vladimir Putin faces widespread Russian discontent about his partial mobilisation of reservists and as government officials struggle to explain plans to annex Ukrainian regions at the same time they are being retaken by Kyiv’s forces.
“The Russian defeat in Kharkiv [region ] and Lyman, combined with the Kremlin’s failure to conduct partial mobilisation effectively and fairly are fundamentally changing the Russian information space,” Washington-based Institute for the Study of War said in a report.
The move paves the way for Ukrainian troops to potentially push even further into land that Moscow illegally claims as its own. Ukrainian forces scored more gains in their counteroffensive across at least two fronts on Monday, advancing in the very areas Russia moved to absorb.

Russian maps appear to show rapid withdrawals in eastern and southern Ukraine
Russian defence ministry maps appear to show rapid withdrawals of Russian invasion forces from areas in eastern and southern Ukraine where they have been under severe pressure from a Ukrainian counteroffensive.
The ministry’s daily video briefing made no mention of any pullbacks, but on maps used to show the location of purported Russian strikes, the shaded area designating Russian military control was much smaller than the day before.
In northeast Ukraine, where Russia suffered a rout last month, its forces along a frontline running some 70 km southward from Kupiansk along the River Oskil appeared to have retreated some 20 km to the east, as far as the border of Luhansk province.
This would mean they had vacated the last remnants of Ukraine’s Kharkiv province - where Russia for several months maintained an occupation administration - but for a small patch between the town of Dvorichna and the Russian border.
In southern Ukraine’s Kherson province, Russia’s line of control on the right bank of the Dnipro river had shifted 25 km southward on the map, to a line running westward from the riverside town of Dudchany.
Both areas are battlefields where Ukraine has been reporting advances, albeit without giving full details.
It would not be the first time that Moscow had acknowledged a withdrawal so obliquely. On 11 September, a map presented by the defence ministry showed that Russian forces had abandoned most of the parts of Kharkiv that they had controlled, as far east as the Oskil, after a lightning Ukrainian offensive.

The Guardian’s legal affairs correspondent, Haroon Siddique, reports on the United Nations inquiry into whether war crimes were committed in Ukraine:
About 2,000 videos, photographs and audio files of alleged war crimes captured through an app designed to create verifiable evidence have been submitted to the United Nations mandated international commission of inquiry (UN COI) on Ukraine in relation to Russia’s invasion of the northern city of Chernihiv and surrounding villages.
They came from the eyeWitness to Atrocities app, which enables people to take footage with the time, date and location recorded. They are then stored encrypted so they cannot be edited.
Wendy Betts, the director of the UK-based charity eyeWitness to Atrocities, said:
Civilian homes, schools, community spaces and food supplies in and around Chernihiv were devastated during Russia’s siege. Given the veracity and quality of the footage, there are reasonable grounds to believe that the incidents included in this submission constitute at least gross violations of human rights and, pending further analysis, violations of international humanitarian law.
The submission concerns alleged violations committed between late February and late March 2022.
It covers four key areas of destruction believed to have been perpetrated: residential neighbourhoods, schools and a children’s library, cultural heritage sites and key supermarkets. Several hundred people are believed to have died in the siege of Chernihiv, before Russians left the city.
Dr Mark Ellis, the International Bar Association’s executive director and the app’s creator, said:
Footage from Ukraine has already been securely delivered by eyeWitness to relevant accountability mechanisms, including the Ukrainian authorities and Europol, and now the United Nations mandated COI as reliable evidence of potential war crimes and other incidents. The international order is at stake and so is the need to ensure that those accused of committing the most heinous crimes are brought to justice.
More than 20,000 items relating to Ukraine have been submitted through the app since the start of Russia’s invasion.

Exhausted, cold and hungry, the people of liberated Lyman are not yet convinced war has moved on
Peter Beaumont, who is reporting from Ukraine for the Guardian, has just got back from newly liberated Lyman today and shared his impressions in a phone call:
It’s an important victory because Lyman is a big strategic junction. The Ukrainians are looking at it as the gate into liberating occupied Luhansk and further down. It’s now towards one edge of the occupied eastern area.
It’s quiet there, the fighting has moved a long way as the Ukrainians continue their offensive. We saw the sheer level of destruction in the city. It’s quite a long approach now because one of the main bridges is blown, even though you would normally get there quickly from Sloviansk. It’s a circuitous route along roads that were formerly the Russian frontlines.
You’re going through this rolling countryside, with woods and forests, but you can see where shells have snapped trees in half – and missiles have knocked down several dozen trees. When you get into the town, you can see there is a lot of destruction: the house of culture is gutted, there isn’t an apartment that isn’t damaged, houses have been flattened.
It’s a huge railway town, and on the bigger junctions you find where the Russian dugouts were. Many have been hit by different kinds of munitions before soldiers fled towards Crimea. It used to be a busy place, a town of 30,000 where most people worked for the railways, but there are only estimated to be 1,000 people left. There’s no electricity, no gas, a lot of the apartment houses have had all their windows blown out, and it’s beginning to get chilly now.
Quite a common sight as you’re wandering around is people – mainly the elderly residents stayed – cooking food out on the street on open fires, which is all they can do at the moment. We managed to pop into a little supermarket, and most shelves were empty. The bakery got hit so there’s no bread. During the occupation, it sounds like grocery supplies weren’t coming through much anyway because most Russians insisted on bribes.
Ukrainian troops are very much in evidence now, the national police are back, but it’s a ghost town. There’s quite a heavy military presence around areas where they’re going to try to run the south from. It’s a long way from being normal and it’s really been destroyed.
One older gentleman I spoke to had only returned to the town 18 days before the battle started. There’s a story I’ve heard in other parts of Ukraine, that pensioners can’t really afford rents in the safer cities and they run out of money and end up going back. Like many, he didn’t see much of battle because he was hiding in his basement, and only came out when it started getting quieter and saw Ukrainian flags had been put up.
We weren’t there when the town was liberated but I got the sense from quite a lot of people who are still there that they’re just exhausted, cold, hungry, and still not convinced the war has gone away. Even though this battle has been won, it’s only moved down the road essentially so you can still hear loud booms coming over the countryside.
The other issue about the aftermath is it’s lousy with mines. You cannot go off the road, there are booby traps. All the solders we’ve spoken to said everywhere not on a path or cleared road is a mine risk and there are an awful lot of mines there, especially in the forests where the Russian positions were.
Ukrainians have been quite efficient about getting food supplies in but getting it ready for winter, turning gas and electricity on in a deserted town with so much damage is a big job, and the war hasn’t gone away yet.

European Union finance ministers agreed today to integrate the EU’s support payments to Ukraine into its 2023 budget to make payments more structured and predictable, the European Commission vice -president, Valdis Dombrovskis , said.
Speaking to journalists after a meeting of the ministers, Dombrovskis admitted this year’s EU payments to Ukraine were hardly regular – a point of concern for Kyiv, which needs to pay the salaries public workers and pensions.
The EU agreed to support Ukraine with €9bn (£7.85bn) in May, but only made the first disbursement of €1bn in July. Reuters reported Dombrovskis said the next tranche of €5bn would be made by mid-October and the remaining €3bn in two instalments in November and December.

Russia at risk of losing control of towns critical to retaining Kherson city and Crimea, say western officials
Russia is at risk of losing control of the strategic towns critical to retaining the city of Kherson and eventually Crimea, western officials said, but they warned the fighting along the Dnipro River “will not be an easy rush into constrained territory”.
They warned the situation in the south “could become increasingly messy with potentially a more desperate Russian force with their backs to the river Dnipro”, adding the Russian leadership politically will be unable to sanction a retreat from Kherson.
Asked if Russia was preparing to act on its repeated threat to use tactical nuclear weapons, the official insisted they had seen no indicators or actions by Russia that were out of the norm. They pointed out that Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov had slapped down the calls from Chechen leaders to use such weapons, saying it was not right to resort to emotions.
Giving one of its most upbeat assessments of the military balance, the western officials said Ukraine was dictating the operational tempo at the moment and doubted whether Russia any longer had any ambition or ability to return to the offensive. “Ukrainian commanders in the south and the east are creating problems for the Russian chain of command faster than the Russians can effectively respond”.
They also doubted the capacity of the 300,000 Russian conscripts to tip the military balance, pointing to the importance of warm weather, clothing and logistics. “Currently you’ve seen videos of Russian recruits lighting fires in fields at minus 5C at night – that is not going to be a situation where you have high morale over the winter.”
Western officials highlighted the progress being made by Ukrainian forces in the south along the Dnipro River, with the start of a potentially fatal pocket being created containing 20,000 Russian troops trapped on the western side of river. But the officials warned as Ukrainian forces pushed south along the river they could potentially be at risk from artillery fire by Russian forces on the other side of the river. “This won’t be an easy rush through unconstrained territory. We think it unlikely the Russian leadership would sanction a full pullout from Kherson for political reasons.
The officials said the town of Nova Kakhovka, about 50km from the most advanced Ukrainian troops, was “a critical challenge to the viability of the Russian troops in Kherson”. The town has a major road bridge, power station and dam, as well as a canal taking fresh water to Crimea, so is seen by the western military officials as central to a nexus of communications. “If you can control that it allows you a much greater military advantage, putting areas of the Kherson and Crimea area at risk”.
The western officials said Russia’s headlong weekend retreat on the northern front in Lyman occurred despite orders to defend and remain.
He said the Russian army “suffered high casualties from artillery fire as they attempted to leave the town to the east. As part of the supposedly newly annexed Donbas, relinquishing these areas is exactly what the Kremlin didn’t want to happen”.

Japan has ordered a Russian consul in Sapporo to leave the country by 10 October in retaliation for the expulsion of a Japanese consul in Vladivostok last month, the foreign ministry has said.
Japan’s decision comes after Russia’s FSB security agency said in September that it had detained the Japanese consul for suspected espionage and ordered him to leave the country.
The vice foreign minister Takeo Mori summoned the Russian ambassador, Mikhail Galuzin, and informed him of Japan’s decision. The country declared the Russian consul in Sapporo “persona non grata” and demanded that the consul leave Japan within six days.
Galuzin said:
It is obvious that this latest step by the Japanese side can only lead to further deterioration of bilateral relations, which have already degraded recently as a result of Tokyo’s destructive policy.

The Kremlin has praised the Tesla boss, Elon Musk, for suggesting a possible peace deal to end the war in Ukraine , after Kyiv rebuked him for proposing terms it viewed as rewarding Russia.
It is very positive that somebody like Elon Musk is looking for a peaceful way out of this situation.
Compared to many professional diplomats, Musk is still searching for ways to achieve peace. And achieving peace without fulfilling Russia’s conditions is absolutely impossible.
In a Twitter poll posted on Monday, the Tesla boss proposed Ukraine permanently cede Crimea to Russia, that new referendums be held under UN auspices to determine the fate of Russian-controlled territory, and that Ukraine agree to neutrality.
Kyiv says it will never agree to cede land taken by force, and lawful referendums cannot be held in occupied territory where many people have been killed or driven out.
The Ukrainian president, Volodymyr Zelenskiy, responded to Musk’s proposal with his own Twitter poll asking:
As of 10.30am GMT on Tuesday, Musk’s original poll had garnered more than 2.5 million votes, with about 60% opposed to the plan.
Peskov said on Tuesday that “bots” – phoney Twitter accounts – were “actively participating in the voting”, but provided no evidence.
Moscow had always been open to a negotiated end to the conflict, Peskov added. He criticised a new Ukrainian decree that says Kyiv will not negotiate directly with Putin.

EU summons Russian ambassador to condemn annexations in Ukraine
The European Union has summoned Russia’s envoy to condemn and reject Moscow’s “illegal annexation” of the Donetsk, Kherson, Luhansk and Zaporizhzhia regions of Ukraine, the EU diplomatic service has said.
Russia declared the annexations on Friday after holding what it called referendums in occupied areas of Ukraine. Western governments and Kyiv said the votes breached international law and were coercive and non-representative.
The EU said it urged Moscow to reverse its “unlawful act” and unconditionally withdraw all its troops from the entire territory of Ukraine during Monday’s meeting with Russia’s charge d’affaires, Kirill Logvinov.
The EU said in a statement:
The EU does not, and will never, recognise this illegal annexation by Russia. These decisions by Russia are null and void and cannot produce any legal effect whatsoever.

Reuters has interviewed Russian men who fled the country – often via circuitous routes – after they were called up for military service as the country attempts to boost its presence in Ukraine.
Timofey and Andrey, two brothers from Moscow, tried to book flights out of the country. But by the time they had logged on, prices had already shot up so fast that they couldn’t afford the last remaining tickets out.
Instead, they jumped in the car. Their father drove them through the night about 700km (450 miles) to Minsk in neighbouring Belarus. There, they got a flight the next morning to Tashkent, the capital of Uzbekistan.
“We thought we might have to cross the border illegally through the forests if they didn’t let us out of Russia,” said Andrey, 26, speaking from Tashkent.
Kirill Ponomarev, a 24-year-old journalist from Voronezh close to Ukraine, set out to reach Yerevan in Armenia. It took him a week on a journey by car, train and plane spanning more than 10,000km (6,000 miles).
Even before Putin made his announcement, Ponomarev was planning to leave: he already had a ticket booked for Yerevan but was not due to fly for another six days.
The day after Putin’s speech, Ponomarev decided it was too risky to wait. The regional governor signed a decree banning reservists from leaving the province. Ponomarev took barely an hour to pack before hopping in a car for 600km (370-mile) drive to Volgograd, close to the border with Kazakhstan.
There, he found a cheap ticket on a long-distance train bound for Tajikistan, which typically carries Central Asian migrant workers to and from Russia.
“My sense was that 90% of my carriage were Russian men of military age. Everyone looked at each other in silence, but we all understood what was going on,” he said.
Tashkent and Yerevan, like other capitals of former Soviet states that let in Russians without visas, have become havens, especially for members of the Russian urban middle classes who were able to move quickly and had resources to escape.
“We booked a room in a hostel for two weeks – and virtually everyone here is Russian,” said Timofey, one of the Moscow brothers in Tashkent. “If you walk around the city, you see a lot of Russians, a lot of IT workers, sitting and working in cafes.”
Uzbekistan allows Russians to stay without a visa for 90 days, and has said it will not deport Russians who come to avoid conscription. Andrey and Timofey plan to move on to Turkey where Russians can obtain residency permits relatively easily.
“I don’t expect to return to Russia in the next six months or a year,” Andrey said.

Putin expected to sign laws annexing four Ukrainian territories on Tuesday
Vladimir Putin is “likely” to sign laws to incorporate four Ukrainian territories into Russia during the course of the day , according to the Kremlin spokesperson, Dmitry Peskov.
Speaking to reporters, Peskov said the “special military operation” in Ukraine would not end if Kyiv ruled out talks, adding that it “takes two sides to negotiate”.
He said:
We will either wait for the current president to change his position or wait for the next president to change his position in the interests of the Ukrainian people.
The Ukrainian president, Volodymyr Zelenskiy, signed a decree on Tuesday formally declaring any talks between Kyiv and Putin “impossible”, but left the door open to talks with Russia.
Earlier, the upper house of the Russian parliament unanimously ratified legislation to annex the Donetsk, Luhansk, Kherson and Zaporizhzhia regions, representing around 18% of Ukraine’s internationally-recognised territory, following a similar vote in the lower house on Monday.
Asked about media reports that Russia was preparing to demonstrate its willingness to use nuclear weapons in its conflict with Ukraine, Peskov said Russia did not want to take part in what he cast as Western exercises in “nuclear rhetoric”.
The Times newspaper reported on Monday that the Nato military alliance had warned members that Putin was set to hold a nuclear test on Ukraine’s borders.
In a visit to Warsaw on Tuesday, the German foreign minister, Annalena Baerbock, said that while Russia’s nuclear threats must be taken seriously, the international community won’t be daunted by them.
It’s not the first time Putin has resorted to such threats, they are irresponsible and we must take them seriously.
But it’s also an attempt to blackmail us, as we know from the more than past 200 days of this brutal war of aggression.

The upper house of Russia’s parliament has voted to approve the incorporation of four occupied Ukrainian regions into Russia, as Moscow sets about formally annexing territory it seized from Kyiv since staging its latest invasion of Ukraine in February. In a session on Tuesday, the Federation Council unanimously ratified legislation to annex the Donetsk , Luhansk , Kherson and Zaporizhzhia regions of Ukraine, following a similar vote in the state Duma, Russia’s lower house, yesterday. No lawmakers in the lower house voted against the bill either.
Volodymyr Zelenskiy has signed a decree formally declaring the prospect of any Ukrainian talks with Vladimir Putin “impossible”. The decree formalised comments made by Zelenskiy on Friday after the Russian president proclaimed the four occupied regions of Ukraine were to become part of Russia.
Russia, however, no longer has full control of any of the four provinces it claims to annex , after Ukrainian troops reportedly advanced dozens of kilometres in Kherson province. The Russian military has acknowledged that Kyiv’s forces had broken through in the Kherson region. It said the Ukrainian army and its “superior tank units” had managed to “penetrate the depths of our defence” around the villages of Zoltaya Balka and Alexsandrovka.
Russia’s retreat from Lyman has sparked vociferous criticism of the handling of the war on Russian state television. Vladimir Solovyov , host of a primetime talkshow on state TV channel Russia 1 and one of the Kremlin’s biggest cheerleaders, said on air on Sunday. “We need to pull it together, make unpopular, but necessary decisions and act.”
Lyman’s recapture by Ukrainian troops is Russia’s largest battlefield loss since Ukraine’s lightning counteroffensive in the north-eastern Kharkiv region in September.
Russias’s ministry of defence spokesperson, Igor Konashenkov, said Russian troops had occupied what he called a “pre-prepared defensive line”. His comments are an admission that Ukraine’s southern counter-offensive is dramatically gaining pace, two months after it began.
The self-proclaimed Donetsk People’s Republic (DPR) has claimed that in the last 24 hours two people were injured on the territory it occupies, and 13 houses and 12 civil infrastructure were damaged by fire from the Ukrainian armed forces.
A Russian court has fined the streaming service Twitch 4m roubles (£60,000/$68,000) for failing to remove an interview with a Ukrainian political figure. The court said the interview violated Russian laws on the spreading of fake information.
North Korea has become the only UN member state apart from Russia to recognise the “results” of the Moscow-backed “referendums” in the occupied areas of Ukraine.
Diplomatic relations between Russia and Japan continue to deteriorate. Japanese foreign minister Yoshimasa Hayashi has ordered a Russian consul in Sapporo to leave Japan by 10 October.
Elon Musk has prompted an online row with Zelenskiy after he asked Twitter users to weigh in on his ideas to end Russia’s war. In a tweet, Musk suggested UN-supervised elections in four occupied regions that Moscow has falsely annexed after what it called referendums. Zelenskiy responded with his own poll. “Which @elonmusk do you like more?,” he wrote, offering two responses: one who supports Ukraine, or supports Russia.

Zelenskiy signs decree ruling out negotiations with Putin
Volodymyr Zelenskiy has signed a decree formally declaring the prospect of any Ukrainian talks with Vladimir Putin “impossible”.
The decree formalised comments made by Zelenskiy on Friday after the Russian president proclaimed four occupied regions of Ukraine to be a part of Russia.
“He [Putin] does not know what dignity and honesty are. Therefore, we are ready for a dialogue with Russia, but with another president of Russia,” Zelenskiy said on Friday.
Clause one of the decree , which was prepared by the National Security and Defence Council of Ukraine on 30 September, reads “[Ukraine decided] to state the impossibility of conducting negotiations with the president of the Russian Federation Vladimir Putin.”

The governor of Kursk in Russia, Roman Starovoyt , has posted to Telegram in an attempt to reassure residents that the partial mobilisation in the region is being carried out in accordance with law. He writes:
Partial mobilisation activities are taking place as planned. We are closely monitoring that everything goes according to the current legislation and the selection criteria that Russian President Vladimir Putin named. We work out individually all the complaints that come to the administration. At the moment, we have 149 appeals, 71 have already been considered. In total, 45 decisions have been made in the region to cancel the mobilisation. We will continue this work.

A Russian court has fined the streaming service Twitch 4m roubles (£60,000/$68,000) for failing to remove an interview with a Ukrainian political figure, the Interfax news agency reported.
Russian authorities said the interview violated Russian laws on the spreading of fake information.
Twitch, which is owned by Amazon, did not immediately respond to a request for comment from Reuters.

The Russian RIA Novosti news agency is carrying this summary of what the annexation means legally according to the treaties Russia claims to have conducted with the four occupied areas of Ukraine, the so-called People’s Republics of Donetsk and Luhansk (DPR and LPR), and the regions of Kherson and Zaporizhzhia. It writes:
The borders of the DPR, LPR, Kherson and Zaporizhzhia regions, connected with the territory of other countries, are the state border of Russia. Until 1 January 2026, all four new subjects have a transitional period to resolve issues of military duty and military service. Within the same time frame, the issues of integrating new regions into the economic, financial, credit and legal systems of Russia, as well as into the system of government bodies, should be resolved.
Russian legislation and other normative legal acts are effective in new regions from the day they are accepted into Russia. Normative legal acts of the Kherson and Zaporizhzhia regions are not applied if they contradict the constitution of Russia. Official documents of the DPR and LPR are valid until the end of the transition period or the adoption of Russian relevant legal acts.
The governments of the DPR and LPR will continue to work until the formation of new cabinets of the acting heads of the republics, the governments of the Kherson and Zaporizhzhia regions must form acting governors in accordance with Russian law.
Citizens of Ukraine, other countries and stateless persons residing in new regions are recognised as citizens of Russia, except for those who within a month declare their desire to retain their existing citizenship or remain stateless.
Russia guarantees all peoples living in new regions the right to preserve their native language and create conditions for its study and development.
Russia and North Korea are the only UN member states to so far recognise the “results” of the “referendums” staged by the occupying authorities in Ukraine.
Russia's Federation Council ratifies annexation of four occupied regions of Ukraine
The upper house of Russia’s parliament has voted to approve the incorporation of four occupied Ukrainian regions into Russia, as Moscow sets about formally annexing territory it seized from Kyiv since staging its latest invasion of Ukraine in February .
In a session on Tuesday, the Federation Council unanimously ratified legislation to annex the Donetsk, Luhansk, Kherson and Zaporizhzhia regions of Ukraine, following a similar vote in the state Duma, Russia’s lower house, yesterday.
Reuters reports the documents now pass back to the Kremlin for President Vladimir Putin’s final signature to complete the process of formally annexing the four regions, representing about 18% of Ukraine’s territory, in a move that is unlikely to be recognised legally outside of Russia itself.
Russia does not fully control the territory it is claiming to annex.

Maksym Kozytskyi , the governor of Lviv in Ukraine’s west, has posted a status update to Telegram to say that no air raid alerts happened overnight in his region. He said that in the last 24 hours there have been 145 people arriving in Lviv from the east of the country on evacuation trains, and that 552 people evacuated into Przemyśl in Poland on four evacuation trains.
Russian state media Tass is reporting that North Korea has backed the outcomes of the “referendums” in four occupied areas of Ukraine that were described as a “propaganda show” and “illegal” by Ukrainian authorities in Kyiv. Tass quotes the foreign ministry saying:
We respect the will of the residents who wished to reunite with Russia, and we support the position of the Russian government on making these regions part of the country. The referendums were held in accordance with the UN charter, which enshrined the principles of equality of people and their right to self-determination, in accordance with legitimate procedures that made it possible to reflect the will of the inhabitants of the two republics and two regions.

Overnight, the self-proclaimed Donetsk People’s Republic (DPR) has claimed that two people were injured on the territory it occupies, and 13 houses and 12 civil infrastructure were damaged by fire from the Ukrainian armed forces. The claims have not been independently verified. The DPR is recognised as a legitimate authority by only three UN member states: Russia, Syria and North Korea.

Russia’s retreat from Lyman over the weekend elicited outcry from an unlikely source: state-run media outlets that typically cast Moscow’s war in glowing terms, the Associated Press reports.
“What happened on Saturday, Lyman it is a serious challenge for us,” Vladimir Solovyov, host of a primetime talkshow on state TV channel Russia 1 and one of the Kremlin’s biggest cheerleaders, said on air on Sunday. “We need to pull it together, make unpopular, but necessary decisions and act.”
A story about the Lyman retreat in Russia’s popular pro-Kremlin tabloid, Komsomolskaya Pravda, painted a bleak picture of the Russian military. The story, published on Sunday, said Russian forces in Lyman were plagued by supply and manpower shortages, poor coordination, and tactical mistakes orchestrated by military officials.
“It’s like it has always been,” according to an unnamed soldier quoted in the story who was part of the group that retreated from Lyman to Kreminna, another strategically important city that is in the sights of the Ukrainian army. “There is effectively no communication between different units.”
Hosts of popular news and political talkshows on Russia 1 TV channel on Sunday described the loss of Lyman as a “tough situation”.

Ukraine needs to revamp its labour laws and redouble efforts to privatise thousands of companies to repair its economy, its president’s economic adviser has said.
Alexander Rodnyansky, an adviser to the president, Volodymyr Zelenskiy , said the war-torn country needed to speed up efforts to reform industries as it looked to rebuild after Russia’s invasion.
Rodnyansky told the Guardian that the Ukrainian government needed to “create the foundations for rapid economic growth” while also financing the conflict.
Ukraine faces a debt crisis as well as inflation of more than 20% as the country counts the cost of Russia’s offensive.
Rodnyansky, who is also a professor of economics at the University of Cambridge, said “receiving more foreign aid is the easiest way to fund the war”; however, efforts were being made to cut spending, collect taxes and issue debt to finance its efforts.
He said Zelenskiy and his top team were also examining priorities to rebuild the economy, including progressing efforts initiated before the war to rework 50-year-old labour regulations. “We have deep issues with our labour code, developed in the 1970s, that needs to be overhauled.
“We’re going to try to emulate a more liberal approach, like Denmark, with a flexible labour market because we need to catch up.”

Zelenskiy hits back as Elon Musk sets up Twitter poll on annexed areas of Ukraine
And in stranger news on the annexations, Elon Musk has prompted an online row with Zelenskiy after he asked Twitter users to weigh in on his ideas to end Russia’s war.
In a tweet, Musk suggested UN-supervised elections in four occupied regions that Moscow has falsely annexed after what it called referendums. The votes were denounced by Kyiv and western governments as illegal and coercive. “Russia leaves if that is will of the people,” Musk wrote.
The Tesla chief executive also suggested that Crimea, which Moscow seized in 2014, be formally recognised as Russia, that water supply to Crimea be assured, and that Ukraine remain neutral. He asked Twitter users to vote yes or no to his idea.
The tweet infuriated Ukrainians, and Zelenskiy responded with his own poll.
“Which @elonmusk do you like more?,” Zelenskiy tweeted , offering two responses: one who supports Ukraine, or supports Russia.
Ukraine’s outspoken outgoing ambassador to Germany, Andriy Melnyk, had a blunt reaction.
“Fuck off is my very diplomatic reply to you @elonmusk,” tweeted Melnyk.

Russia no longer has full control of any of four ‘annexed’ Ukrainian provinces
My colleagues Luke Harding and Isobel Koshiw in Kyiv, and Peter Beaumont in Sloviansk reported this story late on Monday night:
Russia no longer has full control of any of the four provinces of Ukraine it says it annexed last week after Ukrainian troops reportedly advanced dozens of kilometres in Kherson province in the south of the country and made additional gains in the east.
On Monday, the Russian military acknowledged that Kyiv’s forces had broken through in the Kherson region. It said the Ukrainian army and its “superior tank units” had managed to “penetrate the depths of our defence” around the villages of Zoltaya Balka and Alexsandrovka.
The ministry of defence spokesperson Igor Konashenkov said Russian troops had occupied what he called a “pre-prepared defensive line”. They continued to “inflict massive fire damage” on Ukrainian forces, he claimed.
His comments are an admission that Ukraine’s southern counter-offensive is dramatically gaining pace, two months after it began. Ukrainian brigades appear to have achieved their biggest breakthrough in the region since the war started, bursting through the frontline and advancing rapidly along the Dnieper River.

Russian lawmakers set to formalise ‘annexation’
Lawmakers in Russia’s upper house, the federation council, are expected to formalise the illegal annexation of four Ukrainian provinces on Tuesday.
On Monday, the lower house of Russia’s parliament, the state Duma, approved laws on annexing four Ukrainian territories into Russia. No lawmakers in the lower house voted against the bill to incorporate the Zaporizhzhia, Kherson, Donetsk and Luhansk regions into Russia.
This is despite Russia no longer having full control of any of the four provinces of Ukraine it says it annexed last week after Ukrainian troops reportedly advanced dozens of kilometres in Kherson province in the south of the country and made additional gains in the east.
On Monday, the Kremlin also said that it was still determining which areas of occupied Ukraine it has “annexed” , suggesting Russia does not know where its self-declared international borders are.
The surprising admission came in a phone call with journalists, during which Dmitry Peskov was peppered with requests to clarify to which Ukrainian territory Putin had laid claim at a pomp-filled Kremlin ceremony last week.

Ukrainian forces break through Russian defences in south
Ukrainian forces have broken through Russian defences in the south of the country while expanding their rapid offensive in the east, seizing back more territory in areas annexed by Russia and threatening supply lines for its troops, Reuters reports.
Making their biggest breakthrough in the south since the war began, Ukrainian forces recaptured several villages in an advance along the strategic Dnipro River on Monday, Ukrainian officials and a Russian-installed leader in the area said.
Ukrainian forces in the south destroyed 31 Russian tanks and one multiple rocket launcher, the military’s southern operational command said in a nightly update, without providing details of where the fighting occurred.
Reuters reported that it could not not immediately verify the battlefield accounts.
The southern breakthrough mirrors recent Ukrainian advances in the east even as Russia has tried to raise the stakes by annexing land, ordering mobilisation, and threatening nuclear retaliation.
Ukraine has made significant advances in two of the four Russian-occupied regions Moscow last week annexed after what it called referendums - votes that were denounced by Kyiv and Western governments as illegal and coercive.
In a sign Ukraine is building momentum on the eastern front, Reuters saw columns of Ukrainian military vehicles heading on Monday to reinforce the rail hub of Lyman, retaken at the weekend, and a staging post to press into the Donbas region.

Hello and welcome to our live coverage of the Ukraine war. My name is Helen Sullivan and I’ll be taking you through the latest developments as they happen.
Ukrainian forces have broken through Russian defences in the south of the country while expanding their rapid offensive in the east, seizing back more territory in areas annexed by Russia and threatening supply lines for its troops.
We’ll have more on this shortly, in the mean time here is the key news from the last few hours:
Russia no longer has full control of any of the four provinces of Ukraine it says it annexed last week, after Ukrainian troops reportedly advanced dozens of kilometres in Kherson province. The Russian military has acknowledged that Kyiv’s forces had broken through in the Kherson region. It said the Ukrainian army and its “superior tank units” had managed to “penetrate the depths of our defence” around the villages of Zoltaya Balka and Alexsandrovka.
Ukrainian brigades appear to have achieved their biggest breakthrough in the region since the war started, bursting through the frontline and advancing rapidly along the Dnieper River. Lyman’s recapture by Ukrainian troops is Russia’s largest battlefield loss since Ukraine’s lightning counteroffensive in the north-eastern Kharkiv region in September.
Elon Musk has prompted an online row with Zelenskiy after he asked Twitter users to weigh in on his ideas to end Russia’s war. In a tweet, Musk suggested UN-supervised elections in four occupied regions that Moscow has falsely annexed after what it called referendums. Zelenskiy responded with his own poll. “Which @elonmusk do you like more?,” he wrote, offering two responses: one who supports Ukraine, or supports Russia.
The US will deliver four more of the advanced rocket systems to Ukraine. The High Mobility Artillery Rocket Systems, known as HIMARS, will be part of a new $625m aid package to be announced on Tuesday, according to US officials.
North Korea voiced support Tuesday for Russia’s annexation of areas of Ukraine that its troops occupy, and accused the US and its allies of acting like a gangster by leading a drive at the UN against Moscow’s behaviour.
The lower house of Russia’s parliament, the state Duma, has approved laws on annexing four Ukrainian territories into Russia. No lawmakers in the lower house voted against the bill to incorporate the Zaporizhzhia, Kherson, Donetsk and Luhansk regions into Russia. Lawmakers in the upper house, Russia’s federation council, are expected to formalise the illegal annexation on Tuesday.
Russia has put Marina Ovsyannikova, the former state TV editor who interrupted a news broadcast to protest against the Ukraine war, on a wanted list after she reportedly escaped house arrest. The Ukrainian-born Ovsyannikova, 44, gained international attention in March after bursting into a studio of Channel One, her then employer, to denounce the Ukraine war during a live news bulletin.
What are your thoughts?

No negotiations until Russia is removed from Ukrainian soil including Crimea. Russia must be taught to respect other nations borders.
the Russian people don't want to continue this war but there leader does. The solution is get rid of the leader but how? the people here in the United States need that money that's being funded to Ukraine.
Must be a reason,why would they retreat?Wonder why Nato or the UN isn't going after Russia for was crimes? Too many questions not enough answers!We can assume....but?

Wow! My ears are still ringing. I was at a concert last night and it was just fabulous. I can't believe I hadn't heard of those guys before.
The Afro-Celt Sound System was playing the National Concert Hall and I got to go at the last minute, because a friend-of-a-friend was ill and there was a spare ticket on the loose. Amazing. There really is an incredible synergy between Irish and African music. The NCH is a very dignified sort of a place, so it was strange to see everyone standing and dancing among the seats. They got a standing ovation!!!
I so love the way Irish traditional music isn't just alive and well but growing and evolving all the time.I wish I was musical; I would love to play the uillean pipes. They have a much sweeter sound than the Scottish bagpipes.
In Dublin, Christmas shopping is very much underway. There's a new shop in town, Forever 21, and every second girl you see on the street is toting a bag around from there. I haven't been in, but I guess I might check it out -- although with all these concerts I've been going to, I'll more likely find some things I can afford at Penneys. Everything is looking super-Christmassy these days, with lights in the streets -- it's getting dark by 4.30 so they are very welcome -- shop windows all dressed up and people dressed for the cold. I've been told by the best of authorities (local greengrocer) that anyone who hand home-made Christmas pudding should be making it now, so I was thinking of giving it a shot. Recipe, anyone??

and a firm demand was made that it should be restored before any further negotiations could take place. This demand for the restoration of “ das alte, gute Recht” forms the burden of most of Uhland's “patriotic poems," which, printed on single leaves, were scattered through the land, and exercised a considerable influence both upon the minds of the people and upon the practical issue of the struggle. Some of them possess considerable poetic merit, and all show strong and warm, if occasionally rather narrow patriotic feeling. The poem entitled Nachruf, beginning “Noch ist kein Fürst so hoch gefürstet," breathes a bold and manly spirit of liberty, and shows clearly that Uhland, in resisting with all his strength, as a poet and a politician, the introduction of a constitution greatly superior to the old one, was animated solely by fidelity to a principle upon which he felt that the liberties of a people were based, and by the surrender of which any immediate advantages would be dearly purchased. Of his readiness to make great personal sacrifices to his convictions he gave proof in his steadfast refusal to seek or accept any post, which would necessitate his taking an oath to a king who was ruling in defiance of the fundamental conditions of his office. But the history in detail of Uhland's part in the struggle, and of his later activity as a politician, seems to show that he was deficient in some of the qualities most essential to a statesman. Like so many of the learned men of his nation, he was too much a theorist to recognise duly the conditions and requirements of practical and public life. He had moreover in his own character too much of simple straightforwardness and of stern unbending loyalty to conviction and duty, to be able to reconcile himself to diplomacy and compromise. The result of the conflict was the hurried acceptance in 1819, at the time of the Karlsbad Decrees, of a constitution which was indeed based on the principle of contract between prince and people, for which Uhland and his party had so persistently contended, but which was in many points inferior both to that first offered by King Frederick, and to a second one proposed by his more liberal successor, William I. The introduction of the new constitution was celebrated by a representation in the Stuttgart Hoftheater of Uhland's Herzog Ernst, for which occasion the prologue was composed by special request.
Uhland was at once elected by the town of Tübingen into the second chamber of the Landtag or parliament thus established, of which he was for many years one of the most active and influential members, the advocate of liberal reforms and the watchful guardian of civil liberties and popular rights. His patriotic and democratic sentiments, and the devotion with which he strove to serve the interests of his country, both as a representative of the people in Württemberg and later as a member of the short-lived German Parliament in Frankfurt, contributed perhaps no less than his poetical productions to the great popularity throughout Germany which he enjoyed in the latter part of his life. But neither legal nor political pursuits were really congenial to Uhland, and in the inevitable disappointments and discouragements of a time which brought so much disappointment to German patriots, he often longed for quiet and leisure for his studies in mediæval literature and popular poetry. In 1826 he declined re-election ; in 1830 he was appointed to a professorship of German Literature, the prospect of which had been long held out to him, in the University of Tübingen. But in this congenial sphere he was not long left undisturbed. The liberal and national movement in Germany had been stirred up anew by the Paris Revolution of July, 1830, and Uhland considered it his duty to respond to the appeal made to him to resume his parliamentary activity. When in 1833 the government, displeased with his liberal opposition, refused him the necessary leave of absence from his professorial duties to attend the Landtag, he at once sacrificed his professorship, and returned to his political pursuits. In 1838 he again declined re-election, and resumed his literary labours, from which he was but once more called away, when in 1848 he was sent to Frankfurt, first by the ministry in Württemberg as one of the seventeen Vertrauensmänner, and afterwards by the district Tübingen-Rottenburg as a member of the National Assembly. After the failure of this ill-directed and unfortunate attempt at German unity, he retired to Tübingen and lived henceforth uninterrupted in the pursuit of his favourite studies until his death. He was an esteemed correspondent and a valued friend of some of the first German scholars of his time, but he avoided as far as possible, with the same retiring modesty which had always characterized him, the admiring homage his countrymen were eager to render him, and declined several public distinctions of a very flattering character that were pressed upon him. In personal appearance he was a very ordinary, almost insignificant looking man, in dress scrupulously neat, but exceedingly plain, in speech not Auent, in general intercourse ever ready to listen rather than to speak, and shrinking from anything that might look like a parade of his own opinions or performances. Of his kindly nature and tenderness of heart his biographers narrate several traits ; his unobtrusive helpfulness and charity, and the thoughtful consideration even for the lower animals which would make him often rise from reading to open the window for a foolish moth seeking its death in the flame of the candle. He was fond of children and young people, and many a student was helped by him through his university course; many a young would-be poet received from him the most considerate advice and kindly warning. His habits of life were regular and simple, and he enjoyed robust and vigorous health even in his old age, until shortly before his death, which took place Nov. 13th, 1862. Uhland began his literary career in connection with the so
called “Romantic School,” in its later development, Works.
though he never fell into the fantastic extravagance and unreal sentiment which characterized many of its members. The Romanticists had turned away in disgust from the real life of the cheerless present, and had taken refuge in the study and revival of the middle ages, their poetry, art and religious feeling. Some of them had turned to the older German and Scandinavian popular poetry and heroic legend, which however they but inperfectly understood, and in imitating often only caricatured. The brothers Grimm did much, by their scholarly researches and the disquisitions founded upon them, and next to them no
one did more than Uhland, both as a poet and a scholar, to give a healthy direction and a basis of reality to this interest in mediæval life and literature, and in the popular poetry and mythology of earlier times. It has already been mentioned how this mediæval lore had taken hold of him while yet a boy, and influenced from the beginning the direction taken by his early developed poetic talent. He became the centre of a group of young poets, most of them countrymen of his own, and hence generally known as the Schwäbische Dichterschule. His own poetical production however became intermittent at a comparatively early period, and gave place almost entirely, while he was yet hardly past middle life, to his literary and antiquarian pursuits. His interests were chiefly directed to researches into the legend and mythology of the North, and the connection between legend and history, to the older heroic poetry, and especially to the German Volkslieder, of which he published a valuable collection. Most of his tours throughout Germany, continued until late in life, were largely directed towards the gathering of the material, derived either from ancient literary monuments, or from still living tradition, and the study of localities and people, which he embodied in his contributions to the history of antique poetry and legend. Eight volumes of Schriften zur Geschichte der Dichtung und Sage were collected and published after his death.
Uhland's poetry derives its chief inspiration from communion Poems.
with nature, and from ancient story. Both in language
and style, and in the character of the thoughts and sentiments, it is marked by great simplicity, the simplicity of perfect naturalness. Uhland is one of the few highly educated poets who have written songs which have struck the tone and attained the popularity of the true Volkslied. Some of his lyrics show a considerable resemblance, in simple charm, in melody and directness of effect, to those of Goethe, and deservedly rank very near to these in popular esteem. It was however as a lyricepic poet, by his Balladen und Romanzen, that Uhland won his chief and most enduring fame. Some of the poems which he placed under this head have too slight a basis of incident to be
classed as ballads, but among these chiefly lyrical romances are to be found some of the gems of his poetry, Das Schloss am Meere, Der Wirthin Töchterlein, Der gute Kamerad, and others. Among his ballads properly so called are many, such as Des Sängers Fluch and Bertran de Born, which will probably be as lasting in popularity as those of Schiller and Goethe, while others such as Der Waller and Die verlorene Kirche will always be highly esteemed by the lovers of exquisite poetry. The life which Uhland depicts, whether of outward event or of inward feeling, is indeed neither wide in range, nor prevailingly of a very stirring character. But the scenes and incidents of his poems show a fine tact in selecting from the story of the past only what has an abiding human interest, and rejecting whatever is merely accidental, and would now be felt to be disturbing; and are portrayed with the skill of a painter who with a few chaste touches puts before us a picture complete in tone and outline. There is a great charm in the expressive brevity of his musically flowing lines, and the sentiment is always warm and true, and not seldom of a winning tenderness
and grace.
Schwaben, and Ludwig der Bayer, were completed, Dramas.
several others remaining unfinished, it is unnecessary to say much. They are distinguished by the same excellences as his shorter poems, already characterized, but they are lacking in true dramatic life. The onward movement of the action is too slow, and too much interrupted by long passages of narrative and reflection. Their general tone is more epic and lyrical than dramatic; they are rather dramatised pictures of a bygone time than dramas suited for the stage, on which they have never attained success. Uhland has failed here as Goethe also to a great extent failed; but his failures, like Goethe's, are from the broader point of view of literature better than most men's
The classical simplicity of style and the nobleness of tone, which make Goethe's Iphigenie one of the purest pearls of German literature, have perhaps never found a nearer,-if still a distant-parallel in a German poet than in Uhland.

The panel of experts shares their best practices for improving collaboration – ranging from settings in Teams, to rituals and training that companies can use to get the most out of their productivity tool investment. Guests Kevin Peters and Rich Owen talk about the theory of great collaboration and Brandon Long shares real-world experiences and best practices. If you missed part 1, you can find it at this link.
Welcome to the Digital Workplace Deep Dive. I'm your host, Weston Morris.
This is the long-awaited Part Two of a two-part series on Unified Communication and Collaboration. You may recall on episode 36 that we focused on the first "C": communication, but in this episode we're going to take a look at the second "C": collaboration, which is often overlooked. To help me with this, I have two new guests from the previous episode. First of all, Rich Owen connecting in from beautiful Wales, and Brandon Long who is joining us from Oregon. They spend every waking hour thinking about how to improve collaboration for our clients around the world. Welcome, gentlemen.
Hello Weston, great to be here.
Excited to be here.
And also joining me from the previous episode is Kevin Peters. Kevin thanks for giving us a hand today.
Happy to join, thanks.
Now, why I invited this team: All of these are responsible in some way for managing collaboration for our Unisys clients. Now, Rich and Kevin are on the front end, the inventing, the developing of the brand new collaboration capabilities for our customers. Brandon, you take what Rich and Kevin create and figure out how to make it work for our customers. So we've got both the theory and we've got a reality check. So I'm looking forward to your insights today. I'd like to start off with taking a look back at Enterprise Connect. I think a lot of people were looking forward to learning what's new in communication and collaboration. I have a question though, for you, because it seemed like a lot of the vendors were focusing on things that I would say are more in the communication space, like end-to-end encryption, perimeter security, use of video. I'm not saying anything negative about those as they are super important, but what was I missing if I was really looking for collaboration? Rich, maybe I'll start with you on that.
Yeah, sure. Well, we happened to sort of zoom past the Zoom booth, see what I did there. And they had a little feature that had been long used in the streaming community, which was like turning your face into an avatar. And we, we sort of looked at this and rolled our eyes to the top of our heads and then came back and said well, where are we gonna use this? And, and the guy from Zoom was very sort of invigorated about this. Oh, well, you know, if you're not ready for your camera, you could join as a panda. Okay. And I went back to the hotel that night and we were talking about that sort of thing. Is this a gateway for hyper realistic avatars that could be of use into the modern collaborative workspace? And is that then a gateway into, dare I say it, more metaverse applications that can be coming down the line? We don't really want to be joining meetings as a panda or as something from a Nintendo game from 2008, but if you could realize yourself in high definition and then join the meeting, that could be a conducive story.
Yeah, that does give us something to think about. Brandon, was there some other point that you picked up from Enterprise Connect on the collaboration side that you'd like to share?
I think it's interesting that we talk about unified communications and collaboration together, right? They go hand in hand, we say UC&C all the time. And I think it's hard for a lot of our customers, but also partners, to really differentiate between the two and what separates them. There's a lot to love in the unified communications space when it comes to collaborating. We have to talk, we have to meet together, it's core to the collaboration that we do. Then also on the UC side of things, we tend to be more standardized. I think overall on the collaboration side there's a lot more diversity and there's a ton more tools that are available to us. When you have these conversations and when you have these events, I think these standard experiences start to rise to the top.
And we focus on that shared experience that we have. It's a little bit harder to talk about some of the collaboration tools and to understand the value of those collaboration tools and where they fit into business processes, so I think that's part of the ongoing challenge. I saw that reflected at Enterprise Connect, and I think that our role is to really figure out how do we talk about collaboration tools and collaboration overall in a way that that's clear and effective, and mapped to the problems that companies actually have?
Well, I'll tell you, I'm really eager to dig into what makes for effective collaboration, both from the technology side of things, as well as from process. But maybe let's just take a step back here for a second gentlemen, and just talk about what do we mean by collaboration? During the pandemic, enterprises madly rolled out Teams and Zoom and maybe WebEx and the focus was on the first "C", communication. How do we get people talking so that they can do their job? But a big part of doing their job is collaborating. Can you give us some fundamentals about collaboration, and Brandon, maybe we can continue with you there.
One of the ways that I break up collaboration and categorize the different types of collaboration we do is in our synchronous and our asynchronous collaboration. The work that we do together right now, that's our synchronous collaboration - we're together, we're all engaged and there's an expectation that we're all working together in real-time. And then there's our asynchronous collaboration. This is the stuff that we don't necessarily need to be connected. The work that we do across those time zones, right, across those days, across those weeks. I think it's helpful to kind of, to break collaboration into those two categories and to largely treat them differently and understand where they have unique challenges and where they have unique value points.
And thinking about what we're doing right here, you brought this up as an example. So this is an example of synchronous. We're all together here, but in preparation for this, we put together an outline of what we wanted to talk about, and I asked each of you in a shared document - you're all in different time zones - to make some notes and hit on some points, ask questions, or identify some topics you think would be interesting for our audience to listen to. So that would be a great example of the asynchronous collaboration that took place separately. I'd like to ask this question: Why is it that collaboration seems so difficult to accomplish?
I think there's kind of four big challenge areas for collaboration. The first is discoverability: finding what you're looking for, finding how to use what you're looking for, or which tools you're supposed to be using. It's kind of funny, sometimes discoverability works the wrong way in these scenarios. I have a team I use for my job every day and we get random requests from people all the time to join our team because it's a public team that can be searched. These people, not to be rude, have no business being in the team. They're not gonna get any value from it and we don't need their input. Mm-Hmm, <affirmative> it's nice that they wanna learn some stuff, but realistically they're finding the wrong thing. <Laugh>
So, discoverability is a big one. And I kind of just tended on the next one as well, which is access. Even if I can find what I'm looking for, do I have the right access? Can I edit a document? We actually have a lot of things we do with other teams where we have view-only permissions on something, and then I have to figure out a way around those view-only permissions, whether it's screenshotting and marking up, or maybe they're just using a file format like a PDF where I have to have a different app to edit the document instead of using a word document, how you manage that access is really big too. A lot of companies are really tight on how you own a team and who can access it or a SharePoint library, and then you get into a scenario where every time you want to add somebody to the team or give them permission to a document you have to go through all this extra work just to get somebody to be able to collaborate with you.
So that's a big one. Next is really knowledge of what is there and how to use it. Simple things like knowledge of how to name things so other people can find it. Naming conventions are one of the most overlooked things. Most deployments I've seen don't have good naming conventions being enforced, and then you have seven teams that are really trying to do the same thing, and you don't know which one to go to. And then the last one's desire - do people want to use the tools you're giving them and are you giving them a reason to want to use them? A lot of that comes down to just change management - Have you done what you needed to do with your end users? Have you given them the right experience and are they going to go use that?
Do they want to use that? Have you made it easy to use it? Or are they gonna say 'I really don't like how we've deployed this. I'm just going to use something else.' I'm going grab a piece of something we'll call shadow IT. And they'll start using that. And that just breaks all the work that was done from a corporate point of view. Those are kind of the big areas where a lot of organizations are missing and the big areas where collaboration does get hard.
One thing that I just want to respond to Kevin, that you said and I think is so correct, is to your point on desire - are we giving users a reason to want to use the tools? For most of our business users that we're supporting, it's that they're gonna get their jobs done. And they, you know, for the past 30 years or even longer have had the tools, even if they're crude, to get their job done. Right. And so it's really understanding what are the problems that they face? And how can we map new tools into those problems to solve some of those business problems they have and lead to better outcomes, so we're not saying 'here's a new thing to go learn', nobody wants to do that. But to say, here's a solution to a problem that you have, and this is going to make you more productive. It's gonna make your day better. And if we can really kind of focus on that desire, I think we can overcome some of those challenges and just make collaboration better overall.
I mean, one of those desires there is to capitalize on consumerization. Before we came into the pandemic and everyone started working from home, we had a very sort of idyllic view of how we could collaborate and it was one tool. And then when everyone worked from home and we were going through the pandemic, there was Teams, there was, there was Zoom, there was Google Meet. Goodness knows, whatever else people were joining, like I was saying, as avatars into meetings just to spice things up during that difficult transition period where people who weren't used to working from home then started working from home. Just to go back to what Kevin was saying about naming the team correctly, this one particular company bought another company and we found that the Exchange environment didn't have a naming convention as such. It did, but it was named after rivers of the world. And unless you sort of majored in geography, you had no idea what any of these servers were doing.
You gentlemen have really covered some of the real-world challenges that I think many people can relate to with collaborating, so let's get into some best practices. What would you recommend as some ways that enterprises can be thinking about how to have safe, secure, effective, and I'll say even enjoyable collaboration?
Well, I don't know about enjoyable. Just making it usable takes away some of the stress of what we do anyway,. Back when Teams was first sort of late introduced, typically in the general channel that should just be for general announcements, general housekeeping, and then your other channels below that are then for the content that you should be collaborating in. I always think one of the good things to put in that general tab is: A, when you do your team right at the top level, put a description in so people stand a chance if they can't read the naming convention of what you're trying to do, but perhaps a 'read me' file at the top. This is what this channel is and the team is all about. This is how we'd like you to collaborate. If you have read access, then contact these people, that sort of thing. Just a little bit of housekeeping in that aspect, I think would do absolute wonders.
Well, it certainly would help. I think in your example, you gave earlier Rich, where you used to work and they named their teams after names of rivers. At least if they continue to do that, you could look at the, 'read me' in the description and figure out, you know, the Amazon, what is that all about? What does that actually mean for my company?
Well, at least your geography will get better.
<Laugh> and that too. Brandon, what are some suggestions you might have for administrators?
Administrators, yeah, that's a tough one. I spend a lot of time talking to IT people about collaboration and also talking to business people about collaboration, and those conversations are very different. Technical people have a tendency to look at collaboration being the goal to fall in love with tools. Then you talk to business users and you see something very different. You see that collaboration is actually the challenge, not the goal, and their goal is business outcomes, and collaboration is a mountain to overcome. And so they're looking for tools to help them climb that mountain and drive better business outcomes. If I'm talking to admins, it's really to help map their business problems to technology solutions and to not fall in love with the tool and to not be overly focused on the actual collaboration itself.
To say Hey, what is the problem that you have? And here is the best-in-class tool. Here are the best practices to solve that problem, and I'm gonna walk alongside of you. The other thing that I'm seeing as I'm talking to admins is our roles are changing. What it means to be somebody in technology, an IT person is largely changing. We spend way less time configuring technical things. And so, as we're really reevaluating even our own role in all of this, it's to say, we should really be focusing more to be a liaison between technology and business problems.
Kevin, I'm gonna pick on you just for a second here. We hear the expression "Zoom gloom" being in meetings for 7-8 hours a day. Are there some best practices that you'd like to share? This would be more on the user side as we create meetings. We just heard from you Brandon, about the admin side, but on the user side, what are some thoughts you have?
For me, one of the big things I'd like to do is change my default meeting reminder. I hate the 15-minute meeting reminder, the five-minute meeting reminder, and then the zero-minute meeting reminder. I'm like most people these days stacked in meeting after meeting. And it's the form of context switching or interruption that happens when you're in a call, you know, you're 15 into your current meeting, you've got 15 minutes to your next meeting and you get a notification, Hey, you've got this thing coming up. And then my brain of course goes, Ooh, I have to think about this next meeting, and I have to acknowledge this thing that popped up on my screen, because that's very much the way my mind works. That has a minimal amount of impact for me where my whole train of thought is lost.
Halfway through a meeting I've just been interrupted. I've written articles before about avoiding distraction and that's very much how I have to work. So that one, I I think helps a lot and every time I get the 15-minute reminder from somebody, I'm a little bit annoyed by it. I hope everybody can switch to like the five-minute reminder, that'd be great. The other two, and these are all Outlook settings - one is shorter meetings back to back to back to back means my first meeting's late. I'm trying to get coffee, I need a bio break because I've had too much coffee. All those things happen. And really, I don't know that 30 minutes is the right amount of time for the meeting anyway.
Maybe it's 25, maybe it's 15. I try not to schedule default meeting lengths anyway, but then I've shortened them. So my default settings are for 25 minutes and 50 minutes, instead of the 30 minutes and one hour that gives people a little bit of extra time to catch up, get some coffee, or to just take a minute and breathe and let their head space adjust before the next meeting. Mm-Hmm <affirmative>. If I don't need 25 minutes, if I need five or 10 minutes, I just schedule five or 10 minutes - those are the big ones for me.
That's such a brilliant idea. My team just recently started looking for opportunities to take our 30-minute meetings and schedule two 15-minute meetings. So we'll have a 15-minute meeting in the morning around 10:00 AM, and then we'll have a 15-minute meeting at three o'clock. That is so much better than two 30-minute meetings separated by a week, right? Our outcomes are better, we execute faster, there's all these benefits that we're seeing from a really small change. And also 10:15AM leaves, 15 minutes for being a human, not just a meeting android <laugh>, and it's amazing how that has changed the way we work.
I think Rich, you were wanting to say something and I stepped on you there.
I think it was when to use a chat tool, when to use an email - if an email's between two people, then why couldn't it be a chat? Why couldn't it be a phone conversation? Why couldn't it be a video conversation? I never check my email now - please don't tell the boss that - but perhaps once in the morning, once in the evening, anything in between I work directly out of the collaboration hub. So for me, I find it a more conducive way of working, so that's what I would encourage people to do, to spend less time in mail and more time in semi realistic communication or synchronous communication.
Let's switch gears here. We've talked about the challenges, we've talked about some of the best practices to avoid those challenges, but let's look at a real-world example of a customer that you would like to showcase as somebody that is doing this really well with collaboration.
I've worked with a large client recently. They manage billions of dollars of financial assets for their customers all over the world, and they have a team that's primarily responsible for customer relationships and engagements, and specifically for sending financial updates every single day to specific customers. The processes that they had really satisfied their customers, but it was incredibly manual, so they talked to the people who were responsible for these communications and these customer relationships. It was incredibly inefficient. The entire process was based off of email distribution lists and emails and attached files and legacy traditional file shares. So what they did was documented what that process is, where the inefficiencies were, and we really helped them understand all of the technology that they had access to that sped that process up.
This was about building efficiencies within a well-established process. The outcome of that was with OneDrive, Teams channels, some co-authoring, and a little bit of automation, a task that took three or four people about four hours every single day now took two people about an hour and the customer perceived no change. The customer was still satisfied and they freed up so much time for their internal resources by engaging in this. So a really, really exciting example of specifically how this went right for this customer.
I think that highlights the fact that we've got access to so many tools now. What are all those things hanging off the edge of my Teams apps list? What do I do with them and can I use them effectively? You need some training and guidance with how to use them. I loved that, thank you, Brandon.
Rich, you and Kevin are working on the bleeding edge side of things and what's coming next with collaboration. In my podcast I just released with two gentlemen from Qualtrics, we talked about sentiment, employee happiness, employee wellbeing. Typically those have been HR functions, but should we be talking about that a little bit here in this collaboration space? What's coming in the way of data we're collecting around wellbeing with our cloud tools?
Typically I think wellbeing is being, Hey, have you got a bad back? Is your chair correct? Sitting down is the new smoking. So they're saying, so everyone's going after these desks that go up and down, but also it's a bit more than that as well. We've already touched on how much time we spend in meetings is that conducive to good collaboration. How much time do you spend on your headset? Is the volume too loud? I think we've done the reoccurring meetings and, meeting length bit already on this podcast and also about when to use the right tool. Are you going to suffer from email atrophy, or Zoom gloom when perhaps a chat or a conversation will just be just as good? How much time are people now spending in work? Now we have a hybrid workforce as well. If you are already working long hours, for example, you've done 50 hours and it's only Wednesday and you've got a meeting in the office on Thursday, should you be traveling in? Should you be best served doing this from home and not only being more productive, but taking a bit of time for yourself?
Microsoft Teams does a very good job of this by partnering with companies like Headspace, which say, Hey, are you ready to breathe or meditate or have that virtual commute to, and from work, which a lot of people use to actually wind down so they're not all grumpy when they come home to their families.
Or listen to a podcast.
Yeah, or listen to a podcast, exactly. <laugh> and sometimes some of the meetings you might have saved 30 or 40 people on the meeting and only three or four people may be speaking. Is that a good use of your time? Can the minute be transcribed from a meeting and then sent out for you to read at your leisure or dictated to you, text-to-voice while you're doing something else, if you really need to be in that meeting. So in regards to wellness, like I said, it's not about having a bad knee or a bad back and how you get treatment for that. Because the way we are working is different and we've got to adapt to this way of working because more than likely I don't see it going backwards.
One acronym that we haven't used on this podcast is XLA, which is odd because we talk about it so frequently. But I'm wondering Rich, as we look at the XLAs of the future, are some of these things you've just talked about -wellness and wellbeing - related to the data that we can be collecting from our collaboration and even communication tools? Is that something that you think should eventually be part of our future XLAs?
I do. Up until recently, we had the traditional sentiment surveys from Glint and Qualtrics, you know, voice of the workforce sort of thing such as how are things going. Some companies do these every six weeks. Other companies do it every six months or even once a year. And I think these surveys are really good. It's a point in time where employees and people that were really fickle. You might not have had a pay raise off your manager, or you might have had a big argument in work and therefore you may be jaded somewhat in regards to the experience that you're having. And as a result of this what you could be then looking at is other tools to back up that data, or perhaps even disavow that data. So you've got tools like Microsoft Viva Insights that's hitting the market now when people are adopting, which can actually look at how you are using the collaboration suite, which will give another view then add that with other tools like PowerSuite, which will then drill down into the technology to how people's meetings are. And when you think about how we judge an experience with our technology, it used to be a case of when your email went down, that was it. Life had ended, you're on the phone with Help Desk. I can't get my email, the business has stopped. Now it's more a case of, do I get a good quality of experience when I'm having a meeting? Is the audio good? Is the video good? Is my broadband dropping in and out? So I think all these tools when joined together, paint a picture of the end user experience and that's where I think it's going. And now I think we see the rise then of the data scientist to make sense of it.
Let's just do a quick recap here of what we've heard today. We talked about some of the challenges of secure and effective collaboration. We've looked at some best practices. We looked at an example of an enterprise that seems to be doing a very good job with improving their collaboration, and I think I'd like to end up here with maybe some fast tips. What are some suggestions you'd like to share with our listeners? One thing that they could be doing different as they look at collaboration in 2022. Rich, let's start with you.
Right tool for the right job - Why send an email when you could have a chat or a telephone conversation and bring the person back into collaboration?
Find the right ways to educate your users.
Don't fall in love with tools, fall in love with better business outcomes.
Well, you've heard it here on the Digital Workplace Deep Dive discussion about challenges of great collaboration, how to achieve great collaboration.
That's lovely, that is.
That's how hard collaboration is. You can't even say the word. <Laugh> <laugh>
Let's try that one more time. You've been listening to Rich Owen, Kevin Peters and Brandon Long. These are the folks that are driving what's new with collaboration at Unisys, and also helping our customers to be effective with it. I want to thank each one of you for taking some time today to share your thoughts.
Cheers.
Thanks all.
You have been listening to the Digital Workplace Deep Dive. I'm your host, Weston Morris. Thanks for listening.

(Update 1/6/16: As of today, this post has been read almost 80 thousand times. It was originally written for the Pagan and Polytheist communities and those who regularly read my blog, but very clearly it struck a chord with a lot of people. I’m actually still pretty shocked by that. I have made the decision to move any more writing on disability to a new blog, Wunderkammer by C. Laurentine, which will document living life as a disabled artist and activist. So if after reading this you decide to follow me for my writing on disability, it will be over at the new blog. Thank you. Thank you a million times over for reading this. Thank you. – Camilla)
A friend posts an article on Facebook about how the United States’ medical system does not meet the needs of those with chronic pain. This is a reality that I have experienced. This is a reality that I regularly speak to others who experience chronic pain have also experienced. About a month ago when I was at the doctor’s office for my annual exam, I overheard 2 medical workers talking about how they hate when patients say they’re in pain, because they know they’re over-reacting. I was horrified, but it wasn’t the first time I’d heard someone in the medical field say something like this.
When we talk about chronic pain, and disability in general, inevitably someone pops up to say something like the following:
I think chronic pain (and other illnesses for that matter) should be tackled with a holistic approach. Putting our faith completely in the medical system is futile because at the end of the day Big Pharma (which sponsors the medical industry) is a for profit business and there will always be conflicts of interests. Many people are unaware of the fact that a lot of these illnesses stem from emotional issues that have not been dealt with. And when unresolved, it is these emotional issues that eventually manifest physically as pain or illness in the body. Doing some actual shadow work, to confront these issues and release them- along with meditation, Yoga, the right nutrition, etc.- can improve and in some cases even eliminate these illnesses completely.
This is an actual response to my friend’s post about chronic pain. I’m being kind and not putting names up. Some of you out there might be nodding your head to what is being quoted here right now. I am not exaggerating when I say that this was the second time in the same day I’d seen these sentiments said by 2 different people, and I’d not spent much time on social media yesterday. Being active in the chronic illness and disability communities, I see these statements on a daily basis. I see the effects on those who it’s said to that don’t live their lives out in the public.
I expressed in a frustrated moment on Facebook that when I hear the words “Big Pharma” I stop listening, because I assume it’s going to be filled with a bunch of unscientific nonsense. And that got challenged, because obviously I’m making assumptions that aren’t nice. Yet I encounter the same situation day in and day out, and I have many friends with chronic illness and invisible disabilities who also express this same sort of experience happening to them regularly.
So let me take a big deep breath here as I calmly say this: I am sick of being nice about this shit, and I’m horrified that those fighting in the social justice realm are constantly ignoring what disabled people are telling them about their experiences.
As a community, we’ve risen to the occasion (somewhat) appropriately, trying to confront race, sexual orientation, and gender in social justice, even though I realize it’s not enough. We fall behind a little more in discussions on class, but we also have a very epic conversation going on about capitalism currently. But over and over and over again I see people fall short on the conversation about social justice for the disabled down to the point where able people regularly tell us we’re taking care of ourselves incorrectly or not doing everything imaginable to treat ourselves.
So, allow me to begin with why the above quotation is a big old line of shaming BS line-by-line. (Please do your best to remember that this is a disabled person telling you about her experience, and don’t come back with a “not all people” statement. Because derailing.)
I think chronic pain (and other illnesses for that matter) should be tackled with a holistic approach.
Stop and ask yourself three questions here… Do I suffer from chronic pain, which would allow me to actually be speaking from a place of experience? If so, did it help? If yes to both of these things, great! I’m genuinely happy for you, but please remember that everyone’s body is different (never mind diseases vary from person-to-person) and may not respond in the same way. But try not to use sweeping generalizations and talk from a place of your own experience.
If the answer to the first question is no, then stop talking. Just stop. As a white person, I wouldn’t try to tell a person of color what racism was about. As a cis-gender person, I wouldn’t tell a trans person how I think they should navigate their lives. Disability and chronic illness is no different. If you don’t experience, stop, listen, and learn. Your place is as an ally if you choose to be one, which means you need to stop and realize that you do not experience what a disabled person is talking about. I hope you never do.
Putting our faith completely in the medical system is futile because at the end of the day Big Pharma (which sponsors the medical industry) is a for profit business and there will always be conflicts of interests.
Okay, so here is where I’m going to get into why as an ally, I really wish you’d stop using the term “Big Pharma…”
First of all, I want to show you what my medicine box looks like as a person with Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome Hypermobility Type, Idiopathic Intracranial Hypertension, 3 types of migraines, tension headaches, Hyperandergenic Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome, Dysautonomia, severe environmental and food allergies, probable celiac (a comedy of errors cut out the gluten before I could get tested properly, and I’m unable to challenge because my reaction is documented as very severe), an immune deficiency, and Mast Cell Activation Syndrome. Add to that social anxiety disorder and panic attacks, because my body thinks everything is a threat to its life. Add onto a couple more suspected illnesses that I just don’t have the energy at this point to get tested for, because I spend at least one day a week in a doctors’ office. Add to that a few other things I’m just too lazy to type out, because they’re common but fucking painful all the same. And I am one of the mildly afflicted EDS cases out there, which the Ehlers-Danlos is to blame for all the rest.
Hopefully you notice I take a mixture of prescription medication, over-the-counter medication, and supplements (Valerian, garlic, vitamin D, and vitamin C for starters, but my tea cabinet is rather epic since I am a bit of an herbalist). None of this is making me sick, though it’s taken me over a year after diagnosis to balance it properly, and it has to be adjusted every few months.
Secondly, here is the fist full of pills I take every night before bed on a good night. On a bad night, it’s more.
Those of us with disabilities who are on medication regularly depend on “Big Pharma” to stay alive. The reason I wish people would just stop throwing the phrase around is that they are only looking into a fraction of what’s wrong with the medical system when they talk about it. And even if they’re not about to spout off some unsolicited advice or some shame to any disabled person happening upon them, they are in a minority of those who don’t use the phrase to shame people for doing what it takes to survive. And it is one of the disability world’s derailing “not all (insert majority)” statements if you try to argue that not all people talking about “Big Pharma” do these things. The vast majority do, and I’m not the only disabled person out there saying this.
Do I think the pharmaceutical industry is corrupt? You bet I do. You know what else is corrupt that you’re not talking about when you say “Big Pharma?” The state governments in places refusing to reform medicaid so that poor adults are still going without medical insurance. I had a friend break her foot recently who didn’t want to have to go to the ER, because it was too expensive and she had no health insurance. The fact that medical insurance is so damned expensive that, before Obamacare, I could not afford to pay for it, I couldn’t afford to get diagnosed to prove I was disabled, and I went years suffering with absolutely no treatment at all while going into extreme debt every time I had a medical emergency, which with my diseases happens pretty often.
That ignores the fact that the entire medical system is an industry, meaning it’s meant to make money. It is broken. The entire thing is broken.
I am not saying that the pharmaceutical companies in America aren’t corrupt. I have a disease 1 in 100,000 people get. There is no approved treatment. There is no cure. I will never in my lifetime see either of these things, because it’s a rare disease that won’t make money for the pharmaceutical company if they spent tons developing it. Trust me, I have a very vested interest health and medical reform.
But I depend on medication to live and function in a relatively normal manner (most days). I take a diuretic to keep my brain from being crushed by my cerebral spinal fluid. I take a beta blocker to keep my heart from going into tachycardia just because I sat up or, Gods help me, stood up instead of laying flat on my back constantly, but also to make sure that my aorta doesn’t get any bigger than it already is by keeping my blood pressure down. If it does, I run the risk of it dissecting from my heart. I take an old school antidepressant to try to prevent a constant headache instead of just wanting to die from horrific head pain and various other symptoms any time a storm comes through.
And so, even if you aren’t about to spout off how I’m not taking care of myself in the way you feel I should be when you say Big Pharma, you are 1 in probably 60 people I encounter in a given month not using this term to lay some shame on me not working hard enough to not be sick.
You’re hyper-focusing on one part of a much larger problem when you use the term “Big Pharma,” and to put it bluntly, you’re using a term that is steeped in ableism the vast majority of the time. Which, my allies in social justice for the disabled, I know you’re not intending to do. So please, listen to those of us in the actual fight, and as an ally please stop talking about “Big Pharma.” It’s a buzzword that needs to go.
Many people are unaware of the fact that a lot of these illnesses stem from emotional issues that have not been dealt with. And when unresolved, it is these emotional issues that eventually manifest physically as pain or illness in the body.
First of all, again, this is blaming the chronically ill. Obviously we are just not willing to deal with our emotional problems, and if we did we would no longer be sick or in pain. We’re not even aware of the fact that we could be without pain…
Let me lay down some more anger and swearing here. (And YES, I have a RIGHT to be FUCKING PISSED OFF ABOUT THIS BULLSHIT. It’s ableism! It’s privilege and blaming the victim!)
I don’t know a single chronically ill person out there that doesn’t fucking know that emotions play into how they’re feeling physically. I have a disease that is literally triggered by stress or whatever my body perceives as stress, and I fear the day it becomes the disease that’s the next health nuts latch onto as the source of everyone’s problems like gluten currently is and everyone decides (again) that I’m a hypochondriac (which in the wrong situation could kill me). I don’t know a single chronically ill person that doesn’t know that there are people out there that 1) are so steeped in their privilege that they don’t realize they have absolutely no idea what it’s like to be in chronic pain, and 2) have all the answers and yet aren’t a medical professional of any kind.
Not only are you singing your able-bodied privilege here, but you’re coming off as a total dick.
Trust me, I’ve been in therapy for 20 years. My therapist regularly tells me that I’m the most well-adjusted chronically ill person she knows. All of my mental health issues have been proven through testing to be due to physical causes – Those being anxiety, panic attacks, and PTSD. My celiac disease looked like bipolar disorder, but I hate mentioning that because I don’t want people to latch onto the fact that I’m in a minority of people who actually had something fixed by dietary changes and apply it to every other bipolar person out there.
Not everyone handles this stuff like me, though. That’s perfectly okay. Some chronically ill people have developed emotional problems because they are constantly being told there is nothing wrong with them. Some chronically ill people do have mental health issues, because they’ve gone years upon years without a diagnosis or being diagnosed incorrectly.
I have been at this so long and have heard it’s all in my head so many times from friends, strangers, doctors, and loved ones that, despite having a ridiculously long list of diagnosis and more specialists than I care to admit to, I still sometimes genuinely worry that I’m a hypochondriac. Or worse, maybe I’m suffering from what used to be called Munchhausen’s… Maybe I just want attention. The worst part of this phenomena? I’m not the only chronically ill person who struggles with this.
I have PTSD, because I spent decades in the medical system with doctors telling me I was a drug seeker, a hypochondriac, mentally ill, and (my favorite) lacking in a strong spiritual foundation. Which, if you really want to get down to it isn’t just ableist, but it’s sexist. Think of the Victorian woman diagnosed with hysteria. We’ve really just changed the name to hypochondriac. Women are more likely to get this label slapped on them, after all. Point in case: It took me decades to get a diagnosis; it took my husband 2 weeks to get the same diagnosis.
I could rant on this forever. Just understand this: We know. You are not more informed than the chronically ill people you are shaming. Some of us regularly have to deal with the fact that we know more than our own doctors about the diseases we have. Your skimming of WebMD and Natural Health News does not make you an expert.
Doing some actual shadow work, to confront these issues and release them- along with meditation, Yoga, the right nutrition, etc.- can improve and in some cases even eliminate these illnesses completely.
Might I suggest doing some actual shadow work to the person who said this, because what you just laid out was a giant heap of privileged bullshit. You may want to dig deep and examine why you feel so enlightened on other people’s lives that you have the right to judge what they are doing, holding it up to your personal standards of health.
When I say I’ve been on this path for 20 years, don’t you think that maybe I’ve done some actual shadow work? Because when you say “doing some actual shadow work,” what I hear is “You’ve been fucking around on your spiritual path, and if you would just buckle down and do the work…” This is steeped in puritanical judgment and is saying “If you don’t work hard enough, it’s your own fault you are sick.”
You may be well-meaning, but this is, once again, putting the blame on the victim. It is saying that they are not working hard enough to fix their suffering. Period. End of story.
I need to break this down more, though, so you hopefully examine it…
I will be the first to say that, in my own life, meditation helps me. I have been doing it since childhood, and I do it even when I hate it. Offering, prayer, and meditation are the first 3 things I suggest to someone wishing to embark on a spiritual path. If meditation was going to fix my disease, don’t you think it would have by now?
Secondly, you have no idea what a person’s body is doing, so you need to stop suggesting things like yoga. Let me explain why… I have a connective tissue disorder. This makes me really, really flexible. Like freaky contortionist levels. I have had absolutely no training, but my joints are loose from the disease I have. If I did yoga, I run the risk of making my joints even looser, which puts me at higher risk of spontaneous dislocations than I’m already at. Now if I had a yoga instructor who 1) I could afford and 2) knew what Ehlers-Danlos was, maybe I could do yoga safely.
But the point here is you are not an expert in my body. I am. I am not just sitting around wishing I had a magical pill that made all the pain go away. Okay, actually I am, but reality tells me that’s not going to happen, because that magical pill would also be free of side effects. I would like my pain and suffering to go away with a single pill, and you know what? If you hurt like me? You would, too. But since that’s not going to happen, I deal with pain in the best manner for me.
Yoga, my friends, would actually make that worse, but since you’re not a medical expert you don’t know how to treat my condition. You don’t know what I’m doing. You’re laying a lot of judgment down, because for some reason people in the holistic health community believe that the chronically ill are just sitting around doing nothing for their own suffering and simply want a pill to take it all away, never caring about addiction, side effects, or any other thing.
Check. Your. Privilege. Your ableism is showing.
And finally, to me one of the most important things is this concept of “right diet.” What is right diet? Vegan? Paleo? Local? Gluten-free? Grain-free? What is right for you is not right for me. As someone with multiple food allergies, food intolerances, and more than one disease that requires a specialty diet, I am begging you to examine your opinions on food in general.
Do you think that, as a chronically ill person, I am completely incapable of knowing what makes sense for my body? That’s what I hear when you say “right diet.” You know, as opposed to what poor people eat, which makes them fat, lazy, and diseased… Or, wait, is it the poor person’s laziness that makes them fat which makes them diseased? I can never keep classist food arguments straight, because I’m too busy rolling my eyes back in my head and screaming internally at people not realizing what they are saying.
I’ve been to a nutritionist, because I’m genetically at high-risk for diabetes II. This isn’t some new disease in my family. My grandmother, who was stringently organic and health-focused, had it. My father has it. It’s just something I’m probably going to get at some point, though so far so good! And I do everything in my power to delay that. That includes making sure I exercise regularly, and I eat a pretty protein heavy diet because it makes me feel better than refined carbs. The nutritionist didn’t understand why I was there, because my diet is shockingly healthy.
I also am incredibly allergic to eggs. I have a documented gluten-intolerance that is likely undiagnosable celiac disease, because I can’t gluten-challenge but have the genetics and symptoms for it. I cannot eat melon or sweet peppers without becoming violently ill. And I have an anaphylatic reaction to anything with nutritional or brewers yeast in it. I live in a house with a wheat allergy, a millet allergy, citrus sensitivities, and either a mild dairy allergy or lactose intolerance. We have 2 adults who on top of all of that should be on a low-histamine diet, and when one of our stomachs slows down (because EDS can cause poor stomach motility among other things) we have to be mindful of that as well.
We also have to have a high-sodium diet for POTS, which includes drinking electrolytes to stay hydrated on top of drinking an ideal of 2-4 liters of water a day.
Since I’m on a diuretic, my diet has to be high in potassium. Since I have IIH/pseudotumor cerebri caused by EDS, I have to have a low vitamin A diet, because vitamin A increases CSF… You know what the health food movement taught me? That white potatoes are bad for you, and instead you should have sweet potatoes… Except for me it’s the exact opposite. If I eat a few sweet potato fries, I get a headache.
If I haven’t driven my point home with this, let me be concise: What you deem as the right diet is not going to be the right diet for everyone.
Did you realize that a lot of disabled people are poor? So when you decide they’re not eating the diet you would like them to be eating, that you assume is making them sick, you’re not only making an ableist judgment, but you’re making a classist judgement as well. Maybe they can’t afford to be eating 100% organic, local, grass-fed beef on a gluten-free coconut bun.
Yeah, poverty and chronic illness sucks.
Any time my fatigue is so bad I only have the energy to fix mac and cheese, I have to shell out $2-4 for that box of processed convenience food, since it has to be gluten-free. Or I have to drain my energy more by fixing something else, which could take me out for a couple days. Or drain my wallet more by ordering food, which is basically impossible to find something we can eat out that also delivers… And since I don’t drive to keep everyone around me safe, since I could randomly go blind or lose depth perception, I have to rely on an equally fatigued husband to drive and get food.
So when you see your chronically ill friend drinking that Ensure that you’ve decided is loaded with toxic/dirty/wrong food, or you see them eating a hamburger from McDonalds, which might be the only thing that sounds good amidst endless waves of nausea? Stop fucking judging them for their food choices. Take some time to read what others are saying about the social injustice behind the food shaming diet and health food industries, because, yes, it’s there, too, friends.
You, my able-bodied friends, are only in charge of your own body. Not anyone else’s. And your “well-intentioned” judgement come off as privileged assholery to those of us who are living a daily reality with chronic illness or disability.
So in conclusion, please stop using the term “Big Pharma” if you consider yourself an ally to the chronically ill and disabled. Please?
Edit: Someone contacted me to ask if I’d change my usage of “cis-gendered” to the correct “cis-gender.” I went ahead and changed it to reflect correct usage, and I wanted to publicly say thank you for doing so. Not only do I consider myself an ally, but I’m also a language nerd who wants to use terms correctly. If anyone else is interested in the explanation as to why, here is the link I was given: http://www.democraticunderground.com/10024810648

I don’t know how you use Big Pharma but in my circles Big Pharma just means the pharmaceutical industry and their stranglehold on medicine in the world. I criticise Big Pharma not for creating medicine but for withholding it from billions of people who can’t afford to pay and destroying any chance of treatments in the Global South.

Why is it so hard to just say “The pharmaceutical industry?” Do you understand that people who are on medication regularly have to hear people who are anti-vaxxers or anti-pharmaceuticals rail on about “Big Pharma?” I’m well aware that term originally meant something much more important, but it’s been co-opted by people who are very much against what you are wanting to discuss. And I don’t appreciate the “I don’t know how you use Big Pharma but…” sentiment. Please stop to consider that other people may be having vastly different experiences as you outside of your own life and circles. Does your circle possibly bandy about the term “mansplaining” as well?

Rather than give specifics, I don’t think it’s legitimate to attempt to represent all people with disabilities and their position on this issue.

Protip: just use “pharmaceutical industry corruption” and you’ll avoid all connotations of antiautism, antivaccination, antiscience pseudobabble, and general superior ableism. I have no issues with people criticizing corruption. But acting like “big pharma” carries no connotations of these sentiments is naive at best.

Hating an industry is different than shaming those who must use it. And if you're going to volley the idea that they do not *have* to use it, read the original post again, and note that your hate or experience should in no way determine another's choices.

I don’t have chronic pain, but I had chronic mental health problems for decades. I’m relatively well now. It took a lot of hard work on my part, but I couldn’t have done it without drugs. Probably I’ll have to continue taking medication for the rest of my life. I hate taking drugs but it’s worthwhile to be able to work and maintain healthier relationships. I equally hate the stigma and secrecy around mental health and treatment. The healthcare industry is broken in many ways and yet my recovery owes some thanks to some dedicated people who work in the industry.
Thank you for this supportive and informative post. I realize I’ve been guilty of ableism at times. I don’t have persistent physical pain that limits my activities.

I just want to say, first off, I felt guilty at first when I read that quote, because I -have- recomended yoga, meditation, and dietary changes before when asked for advice by someone with fibro. Then I read the rest of the article, and saw what you were actually saying, and I felt a -little- better. Not much, because I realize now that the -way- I normally word it probably sounds _really_ insulting, but a little. A smidgen.
Let me clarify- I am not disabled, for the most part. 99% of my issues stem from my anxiety disorder, which stems from an abusive jackass boyfriend. (The other one percent is inherited, including sinus headaches that feel -almost- like migraines, migraines, and another form of headaches that we -thought- might be a chiory- or however you spell it- malformation, but turned out to be, which we have no CLUE what it is other than it hurts.) But my mother -is- disabled, and has been as long as I’ve been alive- Fibro, and SAD, and a whoooole bunch of other shit. So when someone asks me for advice, I go to her first, especially if it’s related to a chronic pain disorder. My reasoning behind each suggestion:
Yoga: Purely for relaxing the muscles. Not for any spiritual reason- but it helps some people, so if it can’t hurt- I wasn’t aware until now that it could!- it -might- help.
Diet: When I say diet, what I actually mean is: Adjust what you eat so you are getting the proper nutrition and shit. AKA, exactly what you do. I know everyone has different dietary needs- hell, even without medication and illness getting involved, lifestyle differences affect that!
Meditation: This is one that I always recommend, and not for spiritual reasons. Kinda? I think? I may be classifying it. I recommend it because one- even if it doesn’t do anything for the pain, maybe it can make it a little easier to deal with for a little while- two- I know it helps me when I’m on the verge of an anxiety attack, so, again, maybe it will help someone else- and three, if nothing else, if you do it right before bed it can sometimes help you -fall the frick to sleep-, which can be a blessing in and of itself.
Sleep: Another one with multiple reasons! The first one, in my opinion, seems obvious- if you’re asleep, at least you’re not -consciously- hurting, so hey, there’s a win! The second one is that my mother always recommends it, but I can’t remember why off the top of my head.
Everything else I recommend is herbal remedies or otc meds that you wouldn’t normally think would help, so not exactly falling under the scope of things being looked at here.
Mn. I have apologies to go make now, now that I realize how dickish I may have been.

How about don’t offer advice if you don’t have experience with what they’re going through?
Someone telling me to “get more sleep” is going to make me want to stab their eyeballs out. One of the side effects of EDS can be adrenaline surges that make sleep nearly impossible. Sleep and I have a tenuous relationship at best, and at worst I’ve had periods of my life where it was impossible for weeks at a time to get more than 3 hours at a stretch. One notable period involved a 2 month stretch with only the shortest of catnaps due to a special needs newborn who wouldn’t gain weight and thus permanently cured my of my ability to sleep 8 hours at a stretch.
Yoga: Just don’t. NO ONE should advise yoga to ANYONE in chronic pain unless they are deeply familiar with the cause of said chronic pain and know for a fact that yoga won’t make it worse. “Have you tried yoga?” is shorthand in my circle of friends for “I don’t know jack about what I’m talking about and am going to offer you assvice and should be avoided in the future.” We actually say, “Have you tried yoga” as a joke when someone has been given lousy advice by someone who didn’t know what they were talking about.
Meditation is not going to fix what’s wrong for anyone, though it might, maybe, help them cope with it a little more easily. Assuming that traditional mediation poses don’t exacerbate the pain and that they can get through the time without it being excruciating.
Diet: The only reason to ever talk about what someone else eats is if they have specifically said to you, “Do you have any advice about what I should eat?” You might talk about why you eat the way you do if the conversation goes that way, but keep it to what you know from your personal experience or the close personal experience of loved ones. My middle child has to avoid all citric acid and I talk about that but it is never “prescriptive” because that doesn’t apply to most people. She has a rare chromosome disorder and it’s one of the things, you know? Other people need to know so they don’t offer her citrus, for example. I know that going AIP Paleo helps my pain levels, but it also leaves me feeling panicky and gross about food and isn’t good for my mental health. Sometimes there are very good reasons why someone doesn’t make a change that “will help”.
Now… as for your feelings of “oh my god, I’ve been doing it wrong”… once you know better, do better. For most of us with chronic pain, this kind of thing blends into a cultural wash of “people keep telling me”, and you don’t stand out as vastly different from everyone else in our lives. Take a deep breath, say, “oops” and check your reflex reaction in the future when someone says something is going wrong. Ask if they want or need any help figuring out strategies for dealing with their illness. Do research before you offer advice if they DO say yes. It’s natural to want to help fix things, but sometimes someone just needs to say, “This is hard. I’m struggling with this.” And there is likely not an easy answer.

Like I said- I don’t have personal experience. I don’t offer unsolicited advice, either- but if they ask me, I feel guilty if I don’t offer anything. Most of my advice, I just relay to them from my mother, who -does- have personal experience. Yoga is definetly something I am never ever going to reccomend from this point on. And the rest- well, yeah. I’m gonna take your advice, and do a lot of research from now on.
My reflex reaction is, actually, to say, “Man, that sucks. Do you need a hug? Or would that be painful?”

The better thing to say is “Is there anything that I can do for you?” If you get asked for advice, ask “What have you tried/done already?” That lets the chronically ill person (of which I am one) tell you what they need/want/have done, rather than you trying to assume and speak for them.

My disability is one that people don’t even think is real for adults. I have severe ADHD, and even pushing myself to the limits of my capabilities, if I don’t have my meds, the correct dosage, working at 100%, I am not functional. And I don’t mean working a 60 hour week and then doing graduate school. I mean, the longest I’ve ever kept a job was 4 years, it’s taken me ten years to get halfway to a bachelor’s degree, and my house looks like it ought to be condemned. At my worst, I literally cannot have a coherent conversation. Diet and exercise don’t fix that. But because I’m A. an adult and B. fat, doctors assume that the meds are my attempt to lose weight, and I have to fight for them every single time. And don’t get me started on the “we’re medicating our kids to death” crowd, because gods forbid we should prevent people from struggling like I do, right? Racket or not, “Big Pharma” has given me the use of a functional adult brain, and I’d like to keep that.

I understand that one, I have ADD and chronic depression. I have had them since I was 9 but never got meds for them until I was an adult. I was diagnosed a second time when I was 19 so yes it can exist as an adult. A lot of people would like to believe that it disappears when we become adults, but that is not always the case. Some of us will have to deal with it our entire lives. You know I’m with you I will keep “Big Pharma” so I can function on a daily basis and attempt to be employed again. My biggest struggle is being on time to things so keeping a job can be a struggle at times. And I have never been given any slack with having ADD and employment. It can be very frustrating at times.

My daughter and have some of the same chronic illnesses that you do. You do not have to take the gluten challenge to be tested for celiac – there is a blood test to test for 2 celiac genetic markers. There is also NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity), which is getting more attention. My symptoms of a gluten attack are more MS-like, my daughters’ are more like lupus.
We gained insight from getting our genetic profiles done. It takes a lot of research to figure out how to interpret the research (I don’t trust holistic doctors). Selective use of mineral supplements and increasing intake of certain vegetables has helped lower anxiety, pain, migraines and asthma. There is mounting evidence-based research about the role of the gut biome in the immune system & brain functioning, so I incorporate some of that as well. I’m able to do a little bit of exercise.
It is a long road. Recently had a setback when I had to go on an antibiotic for an infected tooth and lost a year of progress. I don’t have any expectation that I’ll ever be well or free from pain. Most people are jerks to disabled people. Too often it’s the doctors themselves.

I have the genetic markers for celiac, which is why I’m comfortable saying it’s probably celiac over non-celiac. My GI and I had a long discussion about standard testing, and she said that she didn’t think it was worth the risk since I was going to stay gluten-free anyway. After about a week of eating gluten, my husband begged me not to challenge.
I can definitely say that my immune system has been stronger since eliminating the foods that were making me sick. Working in the food allergy and intolerance community has definitely shown me that when people locate what is making them sick(er), it makes a world of difference in their overall health.

I want to thank you for such a wonderful essay! I have had to live a good part of my life in chronic pain stemming from very severe Crohn’s disease. When I was first diagnosed, it was a disease that even most doctors hadn’t heard much about. I had doctors try to convince me that I was exaggerating my pain for attention and I should just “take it like a man.” These same doctors would then try to tell me that since they had read that pain was one of the main symptoms of Crohn’s, they couldn’t give me anything for pain because I might not notice that I was having a flare-up. Luckily my main GI doctor at the time was very good, and I learned early on to tell any other doctor to shut and call my GI.
Nowadays, after several surgeries, including one that went very badly and left me septic for several months, I have finally found a medication that has put the disease itself into remission. However, the damage has been done. I now need 6000 calories a day to maintain body weight, and due to issues with nutrient absorption I rapidly form kidney stones, and I have a constant battle to keep from developing several vitamin deficiencies. The last major surgery also has left a spiderweb of scar tissue and adhesions throughout my abdomen that are a constant source of pain, and I have developed multiple hernias along the surgical scars, which make it painful to even sit up for more than a couple of hours at a time.
I am still constantly bombarded with advice, most of which I know is well-intentioned, but still insulting all the same. People constantly ask if I’ve seen the television commercials for the new “wonder-drug” Humera, and wouldn’t that fix everything? I have to patiently explain that I have already tried it, and it didn’t work, and in fact it only works on 50% of people suffering with Crohn’s. I have to explain to people that while I don’t have any specific dietary restrictions, I’ve learned through trial and error what I can tolerate and what I can’t, and that the only way for me to prevent rapid weight loss is to eat high calorie food in large quantities, and sometimes the only feasible way to do this is to eat fast food and/or other fattening junk food. Most supplements like Ensure make me nauseated, and even if they didn’t the amount I would have to consume each day is financially not possible.
I have had several people try to convince me that “Big Pharma” is intentionally keeping me sick, and that I should seek out a more holistic approach. I find it rather ironic that when most people use the word “holistic” (which in my eyes is to look at ALL options, and not automatically discount any idea until I have researched it) they mean the opposite of conventional western medicine. And I have come to realize that if someone talks about “Big Pharma” as some sort of conspiracy (as if every pharmaceutical company works together on some master plan) I will automatically assume that they have no idea what they are talking about when it comes to health and medicine.
Lastly, I want to add that chances are the one with the most expertise in the room about a given disability is in fact the person who suffers from the disability, no matter what you may think you have found on the Internet. Unless you are a gastroenterologist, it is safe to assume that I know far more about Crohn’s disease than you do. And even if you are a GI doctor, there is still a good chance I know more about my disability than you do. The same goes for any other chronic disability.
P.S. I hope you don’t mind that I am going to share this with everyone I know.

I cannot agree with you more. I cannot stand pseudoscience and the lazy thinking it encourages. I actually work for “Big Pharma.” I’m not a marketer, or a salesperson, or any kind of business-person. I am a scientist, and I work on the research side of things. I’ll be the first to agree that pharmaceutical corporations, like ANY corporation, is subject to corruption. They most certainly care about their bottom line—but there’s no lie there. They are a business and businesses exist to make money. At least they make money by helping people. What’s more, harming people hurts their bottom line, so they’d much rather be helping people.
At any rate, I can tell you that the scientists I work with are there because they love science and care about helping people. We never see patients, we never even see the business side of things—in the lab, we do our best to help find therapies for people with chronic and/or deadly illnesses.
I also get migraines, so I can empathize with you there too—research is being done since migraine is not well understood, but it could be a long time before we know enough about to come up with reliably preventive medicines. And the woo is plentiful, where migraines are concerned—many well-meaning, but totally wrong people suggest things like: stop eating (any number of foods), just put an ice pack on your neck, acupuncture, pot brownies. I don’t wish any ill to these people, they are just trying to help, but the more woo is spread, the less room for actual science.

I just broke down in to tears reading this. I’ve been a chronic pain sufferer for 3 years, with no one able to tell me why or how or even help me in the least. I rely on medications to go about my day (read: take care of my two small children), and I can’t tell you how many times I’ve been accused of being a “drug seeker,” “on WAY too many meds,” and “probably just have a lot of emotional issues” that I should work out. Of course I have emotional issues, people. I live in chronic pain and still have to do all the things that people not in pain have to do…other than spending 2-3 days a week at various doctor appointments. I desperately want a third child, but guess what? Fetuses and opioids don’t mix. I’m sick and tired of being sick and tired, as the saying goes. And I wish that everyone would mind their own goddamn business when it comes to my pain, because it’s MY pain. I wish I could hug you for saying all the things I have wanted to say for so long. xx

Learn how to gauge your financial security now so you can determine what financial adjustments you may need to make.
By the time you’re in your 50s, you’ve reached many personal and professional milestones. When you start thinking about what’s next, retirement is likely top of mind, which makes it a great time to assess your financial security for your post-working years.
If that idea feels a bit stressful, you’re not alone: Fewer than one in 10 women ages 50 to 64 feel very confident they’ll have enough for retirement, according to a recent AARP survey. They are also concerned about how the economy and inflation will impact their finances now and in the future.
The good news? There are steps you can take to gauge your financial security now so you can determine what adjustments, if any, may be needed to your financial plan to help you live the retirement you want.
4 steps to help assess your financial security for retirement
1. Check in on your retirement savings and budget
If you have a financial plan in place, you may already have an idea of how much you’ll need for retirement. But are you on track? Take a moment to check on your 401(k), IRA and any other retirement savings accounts you may have. If you’re concerned that you’re falling short, remember that once you turn 50, you’re eligible to make catch-up contributions (among other ways to catch up on your retirement savings).
If you don’t have a target retirement number yet, think more seriously about how you want to spend your time in retirement and what your living expenses would look like as a result. “An advisor can run you through a financial plan and let you know the income you need in retirement and whether you are on track,” says Jennifer Raess, CFP®, Planning Experience Integration Lead at Northwestern Mutual.
In addition to helping you calculate how much you’ll need to maintain the lifestyle you want, an advisor can help you address how parts of your budget will change. During your working years, it’s important to maintain an emergency fund with generally six months’ worth of expenses. But liquidity is just as crucial in retirement, so you may want to consider increasing the amount of cash or other liquid assets you have set aside to cover any unexpected expenses — and to allow you to get through a market downturn before making further portfolio withdrawals for retirement income. You will likely want to make tweaks to your life insurance coverage as well, so you can ensure you will have adequate risk protection.
“Those out-of-pocket costs really do start to jump up,” Raess says. “Plan for higher health care costs and how you’ll cover long-term care expenses, then budget that in with your other retirement costs so you have extra set aside.” She adds that since Medicare kicks in at age 65, you will want to consider having a plan for your health care coverage to cover the gap if you decide to retire before then.
And when it comes to debt going into retirement, focus on tackling any higher interest rate debt first. “Getting any credit card debt or higher interest debt under control can really free you up and give you peace of mind,” she adds.

The cost of long-term care can be one of the biggest expenses many people face in retirement. Here’s how to plan for it.
2. Calculate your Social Security payments
Social Security will also likely be a key source of retirement income, so this is a good time to figure out the size of the payments you’re projected to receive so you can be strategic about how to maximize the amount.
“You can claim Social Security as early as 62 but the benefit will be reduced,” Raess says. “If you have the ability to wait to claim at your full retirement age, or even wait a little longer thereafter, this can really help.” This Social Security calculator can help you figure out what you could receive by age.
“Ask yourself: What are your goals? What is your retirement portfolio looking like?” Raess says. “Find out if you may have to work a little bit longer to hit your retirement target or if you are on track with your current plan.”
3. Take stock of all other sources of retirement income
For women, the prospect of retirement can be especially stressful as there are several challenges that can impact your ability to save. So work with a financial advisor to assess all the sources of income you could tap for retirement. This could include your retirement accounts, other investment accounts, annuities, the cash value of any life insurance policies you may hold or any other assets that could produce income in retirement.
As you’re working with your advisor, ask the following questions:
Is the current projection of your retirement portfolio enough to last?
Do you need to reevaluate the asset allocation of your investments to make sure that you’re still on track?
While you’re still working, what’s the largest possible amount you can put toward your retirement and still be comfortable?
A financial advisor can also help you determine how to draw down from your assets in a tax-efficient way. They can look at your entire retirement portfolio and help you come up with a drawdown strategy that takes your goals, taxes and other retirement risks into account.
Our advisors know what risks to watch out for so you can feel confident you'll live the retirement you want.
Get started
4. Get your estate plan in place
If you haven’t already, it’s a good time to start your estate planning. If you’re married, this will give you an opportunity to plan for the possibility of outliving your spouse. But even if you’re not, it’s a good idea to figure out who you would like to name as your powers of attorney and what kind of legacy you’d like to leave behind. Taking estate planning steps now can help ensure that your wishes are carried out for your money and your health while you’re still able to make those decisions for yourself.
“Know where all of your financial accounts are and where to access them if you need to,” Raess says. “Revisit your estate planning documents — are they all up to date and current?”
Raess explains that while many people draft a will when they have children, they often forget to update those documents over time. She also advises reviewing all your beneficiary designations, as well as any payable on death (POD) or transfer on death (TOD) beneficiaries named on other accounts, because who you name as beneficiaries override what’s written in a will.

When my brother and me were young we built small model boats. While my interests tended more to computer hardware my brother stayed at this area. Finally, it was only a natural conclusion to make a combination of both things.
What is the job of such a board computer?
The model boat for which this system was developed for was (or is) a two-engine boat with two 7.5ccm combustion motors. These motors are basically independent and drive two independent propellors. Both motors are equipped with electric starter motors controllable via the remote control. This allows to restart the motors without the need to touch the boat.
The most interesting jobs initially planned to be performed by the computer are:
RPM (Revolutions per Minute; also called Revs) measurement of the engines. That’s one essential job required for the most other things. For the first we used light barriers with infrared light to measure the RPMs. But because of big troubles with dirt and oil we changed to HALL-effect sensors in combination with permanent magnets that worked very well even under worst environmental conditions.
Engine Syncronizing System (ESS). Stearing both motors with only one joystick is not trivial. Because both engines don’t behave exactly in the same way it’s not enough to provide the throttle-servo with the same signal. This will not lead to identical RPMs for both engines and the boat won’t drive straight forward. This in turn requires activities by the conventional stearing system.
The ESS is responsible to keep both engines at exactly the same RPM level. Of course, finally this is not the only prerequisite to drive straight forward. There are also other factors like wind, waves, and waterflow that have influence on direction. However, it’s one point and it was just interesting to see how it works.
Automatic Engine Tuning System. Usually combustion engines don’t have only a throttle “input”. There’s at least one regulator intended to adjust the amount of fuel (Methanol+Nitromethane+Oil) to be mixed with air. This tuning system was intended for automatic adjustment of the mix so that the engine delivers always optimal power.
Starter Control System. The electric starting motors are also controlled by the board computer. This is for safety reasons to not destroy the starter motors. In our concrete application they have drawn about 8Amperes from a 15Volts power supply. In some cases they are not able to get the combustion engines turning and they draw even more current in this case. Therefore the board computer is responsible for stopping the electric motors after a certain time when the combustion engine has not reached a certain threshold of rotations per minute.
The picture below shows the core processor board.
It is made completely by hand – especially making the vias was a terrible soldering job …
The formfactor of the board is a little bit strange because it had to fit into the bow-section of the boat.
The following components can be seen there:
Rockwell R65C02 CPU (down-left)
GAL16V8 for address decoding (top-left)
The large connector at the right side contains a lot of I/O lines that are connected to other supplemental boards.
I wrote a small realtime operating system for this computer. This OS is able to handle several pseudo-concurrent operations and the I/O system (maily the LC Display handling). The OS I used in my DAT Recorder is based on this Operating System but has got a lot of improvements.
Status (What is really working?)
Three major functions are implemented for now:
servo signal decoding (pulse width received by the remote control receiver)
servo signal generation (creation of a specific pulse width)
forwarding of one incoming throttle signal to both throttle servos of the combustion engines
The most interesting functions such as engine syncronization and tuning were never implemented. There are several reasons for this.
One problem was the reliability of the combustion engines. At that time we built this boat we had not that much money to buy very expensive engines. I don’t know the situation today, but one should invest about 250 – 500 Euros in a good model combustion engine. Because the engines we used made a lot of troubles it was sometimes very difficult to get both engines running in a well state to make some tests.
Another problem was the reliability of the board computer itself. Although this is not completely true. The computer itself is running very well under laboratory conditions. But the electrical system of the boat caused sometimes system crashes. This is because I made the mistake to not make an optical isolation of the computer from other peripheral devices. So especially the starting process of the main engines often led into a crash of the computer because of heavy electrical bus instabilities (and there was nothing like a watch dog timer …). Even a separate computer power supply has brought no major advantages. There’s still a common ground and the computer controls more or less directly some servos and relais.
Since around 1995 this project is standing still and it is unclear whether it will be continued. There are several ideas in my mind for improvement of a lot of things and there’s enough money available to invest in very good combustion engines and a new professional hardware. Also I collected a lot of experience in hardware design meanwhile. However, there are a lot of other projects and time is the problem. Also my brother is working on a real sailing yacht now rather than on model ships.
Today one would choose a microcontroller or DSP with lots of things integrated rather than building such a system out of “discrete” components.

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — A man broke into House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s home in San Francisco and severely beat her 82-year-old husband, Paul Pelosi, with a hammer early Friday while the Democratic lawmaker was in Washington.
Paul Pelosi had surgery to repair a skull fracture and serious injuries to his right arm and hands, and his doctors expect a full recovery, the speaker’s office said. In a letter to congressional colleagues Saturday night, Nancy Pelosi said her husband’s condition “continues to improve.”
David DePape, 42, was arrested on suspicion of attempted murder, elder abuse and burglary, police said.
“This was not a random act. This was intentional. And it’s wrong,” San Francisco Police Chief William Scott said.
The violence was the latest jolt to an increasingly splintered political system that is riven with extremism.
A look at what is known about the attack and the suspect:
An intruder wielding a hammer smashed his way through a rear door into the Pelosi residence in San Francisco shortly before 2:30 a.m. Friday. The man confronted Paul Pelosi and shouted, “Where is Nancy,” according to a person familiar with the situation who was granted anonymity to discuss it.
Paul Pelosi called 911 himself and when police arrived they found him struggling with the assailant. The man managed to strike Pelosi at least once with the hammer before he was tackled by officers and arrested, police said.
Nancy Pelosi was in Washington at the time of the attack.
He underwent surgery to repair a skull fracture and serious injuries to his right arm and hands, and his doctors expect a full recovery, the speaker’s office said Friday. Other than Nancy Pelosi’s letter to colleagues, there were no updates on his condition Saturday.
Nancy Pelosi arrived in San Francisco late Friday. The couple has been married since 1963.
In her letter, the speaker thanked colleagues for their prayers and warm wishes. “Our children, our grandchildren and I are heartbroken and traumatized by the life-threatening attack on our Pop,” she wrote. “We are grateful for the quick response of law enforcement and emergency services, and for the life-saving medical care he is receiving.”
Scott, the San Francisco police chief, said the attack was not a random act. “This was intentional,” he said.
Police didn’t immediately confirm a motive, but three people with knowledge of the investigation told The Associated Press that the assailant targeted Pelosi’s home.
The FBI and Capitol Police are also part of the joint investigation.
DePape was expected to be charged next week with attempted homicide, assault with a deadly weapon, elder abuse and burglary. After his arrest, he was taken to a hospital, where he remained as of Friday evening.
DePape posted frequently on social media, often making racist and rambling comments that included questioning the results of the 2020 election, defending former President Donald Trump and echoing QAnon conspiracy theories.
A two-decade resident of the San Francisco Bay Area, he was known locally as a pro-nudity activist who had picketed naked at protests against laws requiring people to be clothed in public.
He grew up in Powell River, British Columbia, before following an older girlfriend to California. He has three children with two women. Stepfather Gene DePape said the suspect had lived with him in Canada until he was 14 and had been a quiet boy.
“He was reclusive,” said Gene DePape. “He was never violent.”
It’s been almost two years since the riot at the U.S. Capitol, when Trump supporters broke into the building and hunted for Pelosi and other members of Congress. Since then, threats to lawmakers and their families have increased sharply.
The U.S. Capitol Police investigated almost 10,000 threats to members last year, more than twice the number from four years earlier.
Lawmakers have pressed for better security, especially for their families and their homes outside of Washington. Security officials have promised to pay for upgrades to certain security systems and an increased Capitol Police presence outside Washington. But the vast majority of members are mostly on their own.
The attack on Paul Pelosi happened when Nancy Pelosi was out of town, which meant there was less of a security presence in their home.

The discovery of the Chinguetti field, nestled in 800 metres of water off Mauritania, called attention to the country as a prime destination for oil and gas explorationists. But the initial skepticism of the size of the Mauritanian play, among earth scientists, especially in major companies, seems to be returning, with the spate of dry holes witnessed in the country in the last one year.
So when the UK operator Dana Petroleum abandoned wildcat Aigrette 1 as an oil discovery in the offshore Block 7 last December, it was a welcome breath of fresh air in an environment that had started becoming suffocated with news of disappointing encounters.
Before this bout of good news, here’s what had happened:
• Dana Petroleum’s Flamant 1, drilled on adjacent block (Block 8) to the one in which the company just discovered some oil, was plugged and abandoned dry, at TD of 3299m in October 2006.
• Woodside’s Cohn 1, in Area A/Block 3, was plugged and abandoned dry at TD of 2,322ms in early August 2006
• Woodside’s Dore 1, located in Area B/ Deep Block 5, was abandoned dry in late January 2006 at 2,266m. These wells are all located in deepwater Senegal basin; they represent the entire deepwater exploration drilling that took place in Mauritania in 2006.
• The only onshore exploratory well drilled was CNPC’s Heron 1, but the Chinese state oil company’s announcement of discovery, at the time that the well had not been concluded, suggests something like clutching to some straw. The well has since been certified unsuccessful.
• Even before the four dry holes in deepwater 2006, Mauritania had set on a dry white season. Woodside’s Zoule-1, in Block 6, was spudded on Christmas day of 2005 and ushered in the 2006 on a cheerless note. At a depth of 3,730m, it was plugged and abandoned (P&A’d) dry.
SO, IT WAS WITH GREAT TREPIDATION that the industry greeted the spudding of the last well of 2006. Aigerette -1 penetrated about 20 m (gross) oil column in the targeted Cretaceous sandstones; the hydrocarbon was identified from pressure testing and fluid sampling. The planned total depth was originally set at 4,925 m, but in order to continue exploration of the Cretaceous section, the well was deepened to a total depth of 5,152 m. Deeper reservoirs in this section, were water wet. The Aigrette Prospect is a low relief, 50-80 m, 4-way dip closure as large as 40 sq km. It was primarily a gas prospect, but was considered to be lower risk than Flamant since it is on trend with the Pelican gas discovery. The primary targets were stacked Cretaceous turbidite sands with some 0.7 Tcf potential. These sands are gas-bearing in Pelican 1. A secondary target was the deeper turbidite sand sequence, not penetrated by Pelican 1. The main risk was the presence of reservoir and structure. The well was spudded on 7 October 2006, at a location approximately 43 km north-northwest of the Pelican 1 gas discovery. The water depth at location is 1.380 m. The results of Aigrette 1 will also influence the view of Block 6 prospectivity.
Two other large structures, considered to have a potential of 100 to 150 MMBOE each, will be drilled in the first quarter of 2007, even while appraisal or a step-out well on the Pelican discovery will be worked on. Early reserves of Pelican are estimated at 1.03 Tcf gas in place and existing 2D and 3D seismic have indicated the extension to the east of channel sand systems which form the Pelican trap. Additional 3D seismic is being planned for this eastern extension.
Another front in the search for the true worth of Mauritania as a hydrocarbon province is the review of the estimated recoverable reserves of the Chingueti field. Operator Woodside has been re-building its structural models of the field and creating a new reservoir model to which the production history can be matched. The results of this work are expected to be made available towards the end of 2006. Woodside has not formally updated its pre-development reserves estimates of 8l MMBO for 1 P reserves and 123 MMBO for P+P, but in August 2006, Hardman Resources Ltd announced that only half of the estimated reserves were expected to be recovered. According to a recent presentation of partner Roc Oil, although some downward revision may occur, the revised STOIIP will be not significantly lower than the original P50 estimate, as the underperformance of the field is believed to be due to the poor reservoir connectivity rather than reduced STOIIP. The problem was identified after a faster-than-expected decline in production from existing wells started in May 2006, and the future of the development plan is being redesigned accordingly. In light of the above a 4D seismic programme will be recorded in early 2007. Recoverable reserves will likely be downgraded, some suggest by up to 25-50% although an official estimate is expected later this year. Partnership includes Woodside Mauritania Pty Ltd (operator), Hardman Petroleum, BG Group plc, Premier Oil plc, Roc Oil and state-owned Société Mauritanienne des Hydrocarbures (SMH). Woodside is now reviewing the candidates for 2007 and 2008 wells, focusing on near Tiof and near Chinguetti potential tie back prospects in Area B, such as Patudo in the Chinguetti concession, at a location 6 km west of the Chinguetti field and Batrachus in the Deep Block 4, 15 km to the southwest of the Tiof discovery. Patudo has a 40 MMbo potential and Batrachus a 35 MMbo potential. The group also plans a series of wells which may include Phase 2 development drilling in the Chinguetti field. Contingent wells include the Awatt and Bogue South prospects in Area A, and appraisal wells on the Labeidna discovery and in the Banda field. The rig, which is capable of drilling in water depths from approximately 100 to 1,500 m, has significant operational flexibility and is able to conduct work on any of the Chinguetti development wells, if ever required, as well as conducting appraisal drilling on existing discoveries.
The Kibaro Prospect is located in Block 4, Area A, about 35 km southeast of the Chinguetti field, in shallow waters. Kibaro is a Cretaceous canyon-confined turbidite sequence that has not been previously tested. The trap consists of two four-way dip- closures within a greater three-way closure which relies on stratigraphic seal along the updip southern canyon margin. The main risks are reservoir presence/effectiveness (net to gross) and trap effectiveness.

Update: I received a text this morning from my friends and the threat from the fire is finally over. She did say it smelled like a “giant wet campfire outside.” I’m relieved they are safe. Here’s the photo she sent me from last night from their neighborhood:
Photo I saw on Twitter from Sunday night.
The Thomas fire is now on record as the fifth largest fire in recent California history. It’s still raging on and I’m still worried about my friends.
I wish they would have left because they’re under voluntary evacuation notice. I wrote about the fire and our wonderful friends and memories on Dec. 7. Since then, our friends have been existing day to day, ready to leave in a moment’s notice—breathing fire, ash and smoke. You would think it would begin to wear on you.
Every morning and evening, I text to see if they’re okay and ask if they’re staying in their house.
They thought last night the threat had passed and they were over the worst of it. Then this morning the firemen made the local high school–which is literally a stone’s throw from their backyard–the fire staging area. She said maybe they were feeling relief too soon.
I’m praying for my friends and everyone affected by the fires in Southern California. It makes you appreciate a simple thing like fresh air, being outside, and our homes.
Here’s a view from our friends’ backyard this morning.
Do you know anyone suffering from the fires in So Cal?

Terrifying for all. Very humbling these forces of nature, such a reminder of how small we are and how little control. As you note, makes clear what matters.

“If you set goals and go after them with all the determination you can muster, your gifts will take you places that will amaze you.”
It’s hard to believe after 9 months of training for the VT100, the intensity is winding down. I think back to the sub-zero degree days, putting on my thick tights, yak trax and occasional snow goggles to battle old man winter. Now a days, it’s all about tackling the humidity and frequent rainstorms. Everyday I wake up, I drive my family crazy…..”This would be a horrible day for the 100, the air is so thick I can’t breathe, it’s like a thick soup!” OR “This would be the best day, sunshine with cool breeze.” Soon, I’ll be stalking Intellicast, looking to see what Vermont has in store for all of us on July 15th. Whatever Mother Nature is going to throw at us, I feel like I’ll be ready……… I’ve run in almost every condition.
Flashback to a beautiful January run…..
I’ve been reminiscing a bunch on my long runs…..remembering funny moments on certain sections of trail or roads that I’ve run with hubs and friends or solo. Memories that I will surely lean on as I’m running the 100. I have to chuckle at the time we found a cool looking green bench swing on a long run. It was 91 degrees and we were coming down a beautiful grass field and viola…. A swing!! I said to hubs, “Go sit and swing and I’ll snap a cool boomerang video of it” Well, he did and proceeded to fall completely over backwards..I missed pushing record because I was laughing so hard (especially after I knew he was OK)……we curse every time we run by that Damn swing……or the time when I saw the same lawn maintenance truck pass me over and over on my long solo run. Hours later the older gentleman stopped and rolled down his window and said “HOW FAR ARE YOU RUNNING, we’ve seen you all day??” I told him 25 miles with a smile and he joked “That’s pure craziness….” “YUP, pretty much!!” I responded.
There have been dog bites, crazy creepy drivers, downpours, intense heat, snow blizzards, glare ice, gorgeous views, scary partridges jumping out of nowhere, incredible single track trails, finding streams to splash and cool off in, tons of pictures and lots and lots of laughter. So. Many. Memories. Of. The. Journey. We’ve trained hard, but we’ve also had so much fun along the way. I never want running to be “work” for me. I want to play, have fun, work hard, give my all, but never lose the joy of running.
I think I can, I think I can
Going up!!? Intense hill we found running the other day
So this week, we’ve started decreasing the intensity of the workouts. We do have a hill climb tomorrow planned, but the long mileage days are coming to an end. I’ve had so much fun learning from others, following their journeys, and truly finding myself. I’m a changed person for it. It’s been an epic adventure and the best part is, it’s just getting started. Go after your dreams and don’t forget to DREAM BIG!!!
My friend Andrea @ Ultrasandcupcakes sent me this book. Such a sweet and thoughtful gift, especially because she knows I’m headed into taper time or as some call it “taper tantrum” time. The time when the mind can wander and freak out….Did I prepare enough? Am I capable of running 100 miles? I didn’t train as much as this or that person? The little doubt voice who taps you on the shoulder every now and again to throughly flip you out……..I’m super eager to delve into this book and calm my mind and keep myself in check these last two weeks…..So thank you Andrea!!!! You are the best!!!
Silver hill…… and the fabulous swimming pond at the VT100
See you on the trails
Thanks for following my running journey…….

“If the hill has its own name, then it’s probably a pretty tough hill.”
Heartbreak & Agony are just a few of the tough hills I will be running (who am I kidding…..power walking, climbing, shuffling or crawling….) up soon at the VT100. If they have a name like Stern’s quote says, then they must be toughies, right?? Yup, they are.
It’s hard to believe that the VT100 is a mere sixty-nine days away. Holy Shit….. Training is really ramping up these past weeks. This week I put down 52.2 miles with an elevation change of 6,598ft in three runs. My highest weekly mileage to date. Ankle is holding up well, I’m being very adamant about rest days……. I know how important they are in this whole process. I’m being proactive with stretching and seeing my chiropractor on a regular basis. I already have an appointment lined up for the week before the 100.
I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t nervous. Probably because I haven’t run farther than fifty miles at a time….. I have days where I stop suddenly in my tracks and say “I’d still be running!” or before bed while brushing my teeth, “yup, still running” or in the morning the next day as I’m getting the kids off to school……”ahh, still running!!!!!!!!!!” Of course I HOPE I’m still running, because that’s the goal…to FINISH!…..I’m feeling like I will be using most of the 30 hours to get this done, so visualizing myself doing this and crossing the finish line is key. I’m still working on my stomach. I’m taking an acid reducer the night and morning before long runs, I’m honing in on eating during these longs runs, which is getting easier with the aid of Tailwind and the pure act of making myself EAT. Lulu and Joe also mentioned trying to eat a small bite of food every 20 minutes, rather than waiting until you feel hungry….gonna try this as well. I’ve noticed improvement, but if there is one concern for this race, it’s my stomach. I have a fear of throwing up, which is not the best one to have as an ultra runner. I despise, loathe, and hate vomiting. I cry like a baby, I pretty much am a baby when I’m or anyone around me is doing this God awful thing…….thank goodness I never had morning sickness, I would have been a complete mess. So I’m working hard on keeping my stomach in check. Do anyone of you out there suffer with stomach issues during your ultras? I would love to hear what helps you.
Pinelands 50 is fast approaching….3 weeks from today. I love having another race to use as practice for the big dance. I’m going to use it as a stepping stone race, no need for PR’s or pushing myself too much. Just nice and steady, using my time wisely at the aid stations and getting around the course feeling good. Soon I’ll be checking the weather to see what conditions will be. Except for my run with Raven in Miami, I’ve yet to train in any sorta of heat or humidity. I can’t wait for it to warm up in VT and run in some HOT and HUMID temps. I’m excited that so many friends are heading to Maine for this race, and my whole family is running it. Hubs is in the 50 miler and our two boys are doing the 25k, I think they are secretly going just for the Swedish Fish at the aid stations, ha-ha….. There are also a few new friends that I’d like to meet there as well. Should be a fun weekend for us all……
Yesterday I finished up my weekly training with a 21 miler with new friends and my lovely hubs. Lulu and Joe drove up from NYC in the pouring rain Friday and stayed the night with us. It was fun to finally meet her in person after corresponding on Instagram @ lulu.mnyc . She too will be running the VT100 , with Joe as her trusty crew and pacer. We enjoyed a great day on the trails with slight humidity, rain, sunshine, wind, muddiness, lots of chit-chat and of course taking fun pics. We loved having them, Alba did too!! Can’t wait to see you Lulu in less than 2 months!!! Keep up with your great training!!! We’re gonna Kill the hills girl!!!
Lulu and I jumping for joy on the trails….
I’m staying positive, motivated, grateful and happy about the upcoming 100. When I told my good friend, Laura Farrell (who is the founder of the VT100, thank you Laura for all you do) that I’m very NERVOUS and excited, she gave me this wisdom….. “Please remember that at the 100 mile, you get to spend a whole day doing something you love.” This has really stuck with me, I hear her words in my head while training and in life. I’m looking at this as an adventure…..one step at a time. I’m going into it with a BIG SMILE on my face. It won’t be easy, it won’t be all fun and games…..but running is something I love doing and I’m so thrilled that I get a chance to take a shot at one of my biggest goals……
Happy training and remember to always have fun!!!!!!
See you on the trails……thanks for following me…….
I want you so very bad Mr. buckle…..I’ll take the small one

“Knowing I’m not alone, that there’s people here that want to be with me, that motivates me. If I had to come out and run by myself, I don’t know if I could.”
“I always felt like an outcast….now this run is like my family.”
It’s funny how life works sometimes. I was promoting one of my Red Horse and Co. running bracelets on Instagram and doing a March giveaway. I entered the names of the people who liked and commented on the photo on an online random winner generator. Lulu.mnyc was picked. Hooray!! We’d been chatting prior to my giveaway, because we are both registered in the VT100 this coming July, and had become friends. I sent her the bracelet and received a nice message back saying “Thank you so much, I love it, it’s beautiful.” and the next message was “I work in publishing and the house I work for is publishing a book about a real life story of a man in Miami who has been running 8 miles every single day for 40+ years. Would you like an advanced copy, I’d love to send you one.” Um…..yes please!! was my response. I can’t get enough of memoirs, especially about running or horse related stories. I’ve loved the connections I’ve made through social media….so thank you Lulu……
“Running with Raven” by Laura Lee Huttenbach arrived a few days later, and I couldn’t put it down. It is such a wonderful read, that chronicles the life story of Robert “Raven” Kraft. An excerpt from the front cover follows….”In 1975 Robert “Raven” Kraft, a high school dropout and aspiring songwriter, made a New Year’s Resolution to run eight miles on Miami’s South Beach each evening. Over 125,000 miles later, he has not missed one sunset. Along the way, Raven has changed the lives of thousands who have run with him-many of them hundreds of times. From all fifty states and over 85 countries, across all ages groups and backgrounds, they come to run with Raven, and in the process find friendship, inspiration-and a nickname.” Be prepared to be inspired, enlightened, moved, and touched by this incredible story of Raven’s life and come to meet some of the various runners who have run along side of him. I felt I had to take my time, because I wanted to devour the book in one sitting, I needed to savior it. I give it 5 stars, one of my all time favorite books, you don’t need to be a runner to enjoy this one.
My husband had a work conference in Naples, FL….it had been planned since last summer. So our curiosity got the best of us on one long run in March after reading the book. “Hmmmmm, I wonder how far Naples is to Miami Beach???” We stopped and googled mid run and lo and behold, it was only a mere two hours away. How cool would it be to run with Raven, to run with a man with such determination and grit. Hubs and I were like two school kids the whole way home. We decided to run on April 26, the day after the book was to be released. It was to be a quiet evening at the conference and we could easily slip away. We told his co-workers what we were up to, and they were equally intrigued by our upcoming adventure. We don’t like to sit still, so this was right up our alley……We couldn’t wait to meet Raven, run with him, hear his stories and earn our nicknames..
We picked up our car rental and set out for Miami around 1 pm……We left early, allowing enough time in case of delays with traffic and such. Smooth sailings along I-75, sun was shining as we munched on lunch and chatted about what it will be like to meet Raven. Driving into the city was a breeze, phew! I’m not a fan of city driving, thankfully Hubs doesn’t mind it. I pointed out a Parking garage sign near 5th street above Publix, leaving only a 5 minute walk to the beach. It was hot for us Vermonters. 85 and sunny, with relatively low humidity. We arrived at the 5th Street Lifeguard stand around 3:45.
Arriving at Miami beach 5th street Lifeguard station
We love people watching, so we settled in for about an 1 1/2 (yes, we were really early!!) We saw all kinds of people…. families, pot heads, topless women, endless photo shoots by teens, kite fliers, you name it…it’s on South beach. The anticipation was killing me and I told hubs I’m gotta pee one more time….. as we were leaving the restrooms….we spotted Raven, heading up to the beach in his black jean jacket and jeans. I said “OMG, it’s Raven” to hubs and we quietly followed him up to the beach. I didn’t want to act like a stalker and ambush him right away. He put his stuff on the lifeguard stand and then we headed over. We said, “We’ve read your book and it’s incredible, loved it!” He said, “You must be fast readers!” I told him I had a friend who gave us an advanced copy….. Raven was so down to earth and was delighted that we’d be running too! As we were chatting, “Taxman”, Raven’s number one runner walked up next to us and gave us a fist bump (customary greeting with Raven Runners) Taxman is a 63-year-old accountant and has logged in the most runs (1,959 of them) with Raven. We also got to meet Close call and Lobotomy. It was truly like the book was coming alive. All these people whose stories I have read about, were standing in the flesh before me. It was surreal to say the least. We did the Back and Forth North Route. The miles flew by as Raven did Roll Call of the members (he has the most beautiful deep voice) and told us many stories about the characters he’s met and bits about Miami Beach and his life. He asks us which part of the book was our favorite and he told us we were the first runners to come after reading the book. I was in Heaven, I have to say I was a bit nervous at first, because it’s crazy meeting an idol. That quickly melted away, because with Raven, it’s natural and the conversation flowed like we were old friends. He does a bit of an interview to get to know you to come up with your nicknames. I told him my love of Arabian horses and endurance riding and about my accident with my elbow and how running has been my savior these past two years, and that horses run through my blood…he responded..”Desert Horse”, how does that sound?” I was floored!!!! It was perfect for me…..absolutely perfect!! Hubs chatted how about his love of basketball and coaching and his crazy running adventures…..hubs does this awesome “Crossover” move in basketball and viola, “Crossover” was his nickname to be….
As the three of us ended our run (the others peeled off along the way) I felt so blessed to have met this man, and to have made a connection. Because isn’t that what life is all about, connections? We all have so much in common in this world. Sometimes slowing down and enjoying a run on the beach with a friend, may be the best way to experience it. We ended the evening with a 1/3 mile swim in the Atlantic………can’t wait to bring our two boys to run with him…….
Raven is a wonderful, humble, funny, kind man. In a world with such uncertainty and volatility, one thing’s for certain, Raven will always be at the 5th lifeguard station on Miami Beach at 5:30pm. I hope if you are even in that area, you lace up your running shoes with this great man……….keep on inspiring Raven!!!!

Hope to see you on the trails…………..

“Life is made of two dates and a dash. Make the most of your dash.”
~Unknown
This quote certainly resonates with my family and I. Everyone’s life is made up of two dates and a dash…..it doesn’t matter if you are rich or poor, old or young, or what your beliefs are, we all share this same common fate. What will you do with your dash???? Be darn sure to make the most of it………….I know I sure will!
Training for the VT 100 is on. Saturday I’ll be running the Runamuck 50k in Pomfret, VT, starting and ending at the base of Suicide Six Ski area. The elevation gain is 3,612 feet and the course meanders along the back roads of rural VT. This will be a stepping stone in my training for VT100. I’m going into it super excited and treating it as a killer training run, a chance to make sure things are working seamlessly….haha..nothing in ultra running is ever seamless! I must eat and eat and eat, to train my stomach. Tailwind will be a huge help of course, but I know I have to get my body eating regular foods, nausea from not eating is my nemesis. My fellow VT running friends (and New Englanders) and I are ready and deserving of some decent weather. The forecast is calling for 40’s and cloudy on race day….I’m still hoping to wear shorts!!! Looking forward to meeting new friends and hanging with my favorite buds. The last two mega snowstorms have made it harder to train…..we finally saw the sun on our training run this past Sunday, Hallelujah!! We Vermonters are stubborn, tough, and a tad rugged. We know that summer will be here soon…..75 and Sunny next week!!!!!!! And then perhaps Winter could return..you never know. So, I’ll follow up with what worked and didn’t for Runamuck….stay tuned!
Guy on lookout during a long run…..We wore shorts….FINALLY!!
So, I have to tell you about a book I just finished reading, Running with Raven: The Amazing Story of One Man, His passion, and the Community He Inspired. By Laura Lee Huttenbach. I was given an advance copy of the book by my wonderful friend, Lulu. Lulu will be running her first 100 in VT too!! From the moment I read the first sentence, I was hooked. It follows the life of Robert “Raven “Kraft and how in 1975, he made a New Year’s Resolution to run 8 miles a day, everyday. He has done this for the past 40+ years on beautiful Miami Beach. Over 125,000 miles later, he’s yet to miss one sunset. He’s inspired thousands around the world and hasn’t run alone in the past decade. He gives everyone who runs with him a nickname (the Author is White Lightning) which is so friggin cool and keeps a meticulous log of his runs. You’ll hear many stories of people who have run with him, and learn about who “Raven” is and what makes him tick….I laughed, cried, well, I had pretty much every emotion reading this book. I don’t want to spoil it by telling you too much, so I will leave you with this…You need to buy this book!!! It hits bookstores April 25, 2017. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did….
I decided to make homemade Granola bars for the upcoming race……here’s my recipe:
Line an 8×8 pan with parchment paper. Mix all ingredients in large mixing bowl. Pour into prepare pan, press firmly. Freeze for 1 hour. Cut and wrapped Individual. These will be in our packs Saturday. Yum.
Enjoy!
Hope you are all enjoying your training…..Any big races or adventures coming up?? I would love to hear what you’re up to!!
How are you gonna make your Dash count????!!!! Go get it!!!!
always make time for kisses
Thanks for following my running journey….see you on the trails….

“I often think that the night is more alive and more richly colored than the day.”
Night running….. mystery….. the unknown…. darkness….peacefulness….calm. Night running is wondrous. It seems as though the world has stopped for a brief moment in time. No hustle and bustle. All is silent. The houses twinkle in the distance, the sounds of animals waking up, the moon illuminating the way. The hills seem to melt under my feet, my mind unable to see far ahead to the next climb approaching. There’s a sense of lightness, calmness, tranquility, and ease.
This was our first night run of the season, earlier than normal, usually we plan an epic overnight run to prepare the boys of Brownsville for the VT 100. I was so giddy….excited for the longest run in some time for me, and a night one to boot!! A date night with the hubs, if you will.
A dog stick to ward off scary canine at night
Have you ever ventured out in the night to run??? I’d love to hear your experiences! We only had two cars pass us (gotta love country living)…probably thought they were in an episode of the twilight zone with our blue and pink lights flashing. Our tailwind turned to slush, but we unscrewed our caps and had lemon slushies along the way…yum! Coming out of a trail around mile 5, we heard a man and his dog in the distance. Naia (as we heard him call her) was very curious as to why crazy, colorful, humans were approaching her. The man yelled, “Are you walking or on horseback!!??”…we said “We’re running! Nice night for it, huh…….um…is your dog friendly???” She was a love bug, wanting to give us kisses. Phew! Hubs was recently bit while running, hence the pic of him with the “dog stick” just in case. We followed the moon, who was playing peak a boo with us between the trees, lighting the way. The stars were abundant last night….a bit of quiet before the storm.
the nor’easter is in full force as I type..
Things to remember
Always snag a running buddy or let someone at least know where you are going.
Carry a “dog stick” just in case

Sonic Chaos holds a special place in my heart as a long time Sonic the Hedgehog fan. However, it would be remiss of me to mention that this game is on the bottom end of my list of favourite Sonic games, especially when it’s stacked against some of the best the series has to offer. It doesn’t mean I think of this game any less, not by any means. In fact, Sonic Chaos marks the first time I had ever 100% completed a Sonic game.
The game itself is known as Sonic Chaos only here in the West. In Japan, it was released as Sonic and Tails. It’s notable for being the first original Sonic title for the Game Gear system and was released on November 23, 1993. In this game, Dr. Robotnik has found one of the six Chaos Emeralds and takes it with the hope of finding the other five. However, his actions cause the Emeralds to become unbalanced and they scatter all over South Island. Without the Emeralds, South Island begins to sink into the sea and so Sonic and Tails have to retrieve the missing five Emeralds and recover the final one from Robotnik at his new fortress.
Sonic Chaos was developed by Aspect, the same company that handled the development of Sonic the Hedgehog 2 for the Game Gear. With the success of the 8-Bit Sonic 2 game, SEGA handed Aspect more responsibility for the Sonic brand for the Game Gear and Master System. All in all, they would release several more well-received Sonic titles; not bad for a small and relatively unknown company at the time!
Taking what they’ve learned from developing the Sonic 2 title, Aspect made many improvements. For one thing, they cleaned up the display to give more viewing room for players to see. Next, they implemented Sonic’s Spin Dash and Super Peel-Out moves – both seen in the Genesis version of Sonic 2, Sonic 3 and Knuckles and in Sonic CD. Aspect even added in some exclusive moves that could only be found in the Game Gear titles, like the Rocket Shoes which allowed Sonic to zoom through the skies! And last but definitely not least, they even managed to work Tails into the game as a playable character who also could fly! All in all, Sonic Chaos was packed with lots of new features in a fun-sized cartridge.
I remember getting this game on my birthday in July of 1995. While I loved it, Sonic the Hedgehog 2 for the Game Gear was frustrating me to no end as I couldn’t find the fifth Chaos Emerald to unlock the final zone! I had gotten pretty good at the game too; I could get through that dreaded first boss fight without too much trouble and Green Hill Zone 3 was a mere nuisance at that point. However, I got bored. I only had one other game for the Game Gear and that was World Series Baseball. So, my birthday rolled around and in one of the presents, I got both a Sonic the Hedgehog comic (by Archie Comics) and a brand new copy of Sonic Chaos.
First chance I got, I slapped the cartridge into my Game Gear and went right to town. I remember being wowed by the visuals – they were so much sharper and vibrant than Sonic the Hedgehog 2 was! When I raced through Turquoise Hill Zone and I first hit the monitor containing the Rocket Shoes, I don’t remember if I was able to contain my excitement at the time! I was flying through the air, collecting tens and tens of rings until suddenly, I was transported away to a Special Stage after I picked up my hundredth. In this new level, I had to use the Rocket Shoes to zoom across an endless sky filled with giant Rings while a timer ran down. In my excitement, I didn’t see the Chaos Emerald at the end of the stage as the time expired and I was sent to the next Act of the level.
It was here I started to realize that I could actually beat this one – I didn’t have to find the Chaos Emeralds within the levels, I could just enter the Special Stages and find them there instead. I never fully beat Sonic 2 for the Game Gear, and I hadn’t beaten Sonic 2 for the Genesis on my own either (my older cousin would do it for me). But Sonic Chaos was a game that I could finally beat on my own! And eventually, I did! I felt pretty proud of myself, overall.
In retrospect, Sonic Chaos was a much easier game than Sonic 2 was. It was also much more bland, with the level design being more simple than the previous game. What did set it apart was its music selection. Gigapolis Zone remains one of my favourite tracks from Sonic Chaos and there were a lot of familiar tunes that were repurposed from Sonic 2, like Metal Green Hills Zone for instance. The variety of items was also a big plus, with the Rocket Shoes being the coolest item ever featured in a Sonic game.
A vivid memory I had with this game was around mid summer 1995, shortly after my birthday. My grandmother was visiting from the States and she was keeping an eye on my brother and I while my parents worked. I remember that I was curled up on an old armchair in the corner of my small living room in the morning. The Game Gear was in my hand and I was playing Sonic Chaos while my grandmother was watching “The Price is Right.” It was simpler back then, when the only worries I had were “What was gonna be my next adventure?” and “Who am I gonna play with later today?”
Sonic Chaos reminds me of those times. And though it doesn’t crack my list of top ten Sonic games, it’s still a title that I remember fondly.
This post is part of a collaborative Sonic retrospective based around the games on Sonic Mega Collection Plus. To read more, please head over to the central post!
Hey! It’s Ryan for another round of Games with Coffee. You rarely see posts on Thursdays, but today is a special occasion: the Sonic Central broadcast! And though it was way past fast, were the announcements way past cool? Without much preamble, let’s dive in and talk about the direct in detail!
Right off the bat, the broadcast starts off with an announcement of a Symphony Orchestra performance, happening on Sonic’s Birthday for free! Guest stars include Crush 40 and Tomoya Ohtani, the latter of which has produced some of the series’ best music in the last 15 years! It’s gonna be so epic to listen to this! I will honestly cry if there is a symphonic rendition of Windmill Isle Day, just saying.
Or just the ability to dress like him, at least. Tokyo 2020 really is leaning hard into custom avatars, so including the ability to dress like Sonic for these events is almost a no-brainer at this point.
The hilarious part about this is that it’s an adult-sized mascot costume and I can already hear the memes being created because of this haha.
Speaking of memes, this photo of a Sonic-dressed character sitting behind a desk and consulting patients is on-point. I can feel the memes being generated as we speak…
Like with Tokyo 2020, Sega is putting it’s mascot in another popular series, Two Point Hospital. The new add-ons include costumes that your staff can wear as well as new decorations. I’ve never played Two Point Hospital – reminds me a lot of Roller Coaster Tycoon, but instead running a healthcare facility instead of a theme park.
Kinda wish my hospital had an arcade in it…
…I kinda want to try it out though, haha.
It seems that games within games is becoming a huge thing nowadays, as in Lost Judgement – from the makers of Yakuza – there will be an arcade machine featuring a fully playable copy of Sonic the Fighters!
Fighters is a way past cool fighting game that I streamed recently through the Sonic Gems Collection.
To end this section, it seems that there will be more collaborations happening in the future, including what looks like.. Minecraft?!
What the?
Now for the (second) biggest news of the day – a remastered Sonic Colours! Colours is one of the few Sonic games that I haven’t played and so hearing that this was going to be officially released was welcome (if not expected) news. It’s nice to see that we finally get official confirmation of stuff being released, as opposed to relying on leaks and rumors about Sonic news…
Anyways, Sonic Colours Ultimate is a revised version of the Wii exclusive game that apparently includes some new stuff, like a Jade Ghost Wisp, a rival race against Metal Sonic and other things.
Not only that, but Roger Craig Smith (the previously-former-but-now-current VA for Sonic – it’s confusing, alright?) took the time to speak about a brand new short animation based on Sonic Colours called Sonic Colours: Rise of the Wisps.
Honestly, the animation looks like it’s on point! The fact that it’s fully voiced by the Sonic VA cast is icing on the cake. Definitely looking forward to watching this in Summer.
And yes, I’ll be pre-ordering Sonic Colours Ultimate. I mean, c’mon, I was expecting a game to be released this year, so I prepared in advance!
Can I say “called it?” Sorta?
A new Sonic Collection called Sonic Origins, featuring Sonic 1, Sonic 2, Sonic 3 and Knuckles and Sonic CD, is coming out! Apparently, it’s supposed to include some added content and features.
And while there are a few (MANY) omissions, at least the classic Sonic experience continues onward! I wonder if these additions and features will have something to do with the Christian Whitehead editions of the Sonic Mobile ports, which contained some new and improved content for both Sonic 1 and 2? We’ll have to see later next year on what that entails…
Though I’m a bit disappointed that they still neglected Knuckles’ Chaotix. It’s also a missed opportunity to release some classic portable titles as well. And yes, it’s confirmed that Sonic 3 and Knuckles will support widescreen format.
Sonic Forces, Sonic Mania and Team Sonic Racing are slated to be released on Amazon’s Luna and Sony’s PlaystationNow streaming services. You can pick up Sonic Mania and Team Sonic Racing right now if you have the Luna service, while the three pack will be released for PlaystationNow in June. Sounds way past cool for those who have either of those services!
Now, I don’t play much mobile games, but I do like Sonic Dash. This month, players can unlock Pirate themed costumes for Sonic and Shadow (Of which instantly memeable content has been brought forward haha), plus some other birthday stuff.
“Oh, do what you want, cuz a pirate is free! YOU ARE A PIRATE!”
On top of that, Super Sonic is coming to Sonic Forces (the mobile game). Funny how Super Sonic makes an appearance, considering that he apparently never made one in the console version of Forces… Plus too, a Party Mode is going to be added, where you can race against your friends, which seems pretty exciting! I’ve played this mobile game before and it’s pretty fun. I might get back into it just to get Super Sonic haha.
Later this year for Halloween, Werehog Sonic makes a return to the fore! He’ll be playable in Sonic Forces and in Sonic Dash and it’s nice to see that the controversial transformation hasn’t been totally neglected (though it’s been mocked constantly).
Finally, for Sonic Racing on the Apple Arcade service, Classic Sonic will be playable, along with three new tracks situated in Green Hill Zone.
News about Sonic Prime
Next, we heard from Joe Kelly from Man of Action, one of the show runners for the newly announced Sonic Prime Netflix series. Now, Man of Action has been responsible for quite a few animated series, like Ben10, so hopefully that means Sonic’s in good hands?
Kelly has touted that this is a series unlike anything seen by Sonic fans and that it takes place within a realm known as the Shatterverse (Shadowverse?)… What that means is anyone’s guess, but it sounds like this 24 episode series will be set in some form of a multiverse (alternate Sonics!?). Also, that new Eggman logo looks pretty dope.
Ahem, sorry about that. But seriously, this stuff looks awesome! A playset recreating the final battle of Sonic 2, my all-time favourite Sonic game?! Oh man, I already don’t have any space to begin with, where the heck am I gonna put that!?
“Yes this will definitely be purchased for my kid and not for me. Seriously. You gotta believe me.”
I’m not that into hip-hop culture… but I still want one of those Sonic necklaces from King Ice. I was hoping for a ring, but I’ll take the necklace nonetheless.
I’ve already pre-ordered the deluxe version of the Encyclo-Speed-ia haha. Thanks to everyone on Twitter who pointed that out to me, by the way!
There’s also a commemorative 30th Anniversary Coin that looks pretty sweet.
And there seems to be an official 30th Anniversary site with more information about merch and other stuff, though it’s not available to access as of yet… I’m sure that’ll change within the day or so.
Finally, they saved the best (?) for last: the biggest news of the day – A New Sonic Title.
We see Sonic running in a forest. Before long, his body emits what looks like some sorta strange energy before going into a Sonic Boost. He then circles around a grove of trees and the scene changes to a stone background with ancient writing. A thick, bright blue line traces some symbols on the stone and they look to be the letters Z, A and P…
WHAT DOES THIS MEAN????
Could the upcoming title be known as Sonic ZAP? I doubt it… but let the speculation commence, I suppose!? The new title is slated to be released in 2022.
As for my take, I can’t say too much about it because of how little the tiny teaser reveals… but I hope though that we’re seeing a resurgence of Sonic Adventure-esque storytelling. However, my biggest concerns are as follows:
What’s changed gameplay-wise?
What’s stayed the same?
What are we gonna see in terms of the story?
Finally, has the last five years since Forces was released been enough for Sonic Team to really and truly nail the speed-based gameplay that fans desired?
Maybe we’ll see more at E3, which is happening in just a couple of weeks time, but this snippet isn’t enough to go by right now. In short, WE NEED ANSWERS, DAMNIT!
And that’s it for Sonic Central wrap-up! They did say within the broadcast that more of these will be coming, which is welcome news after the radio silence we’ve endured since the beginning of March 2020.
So, did you see the broadcast this afternoon? What are your thoughts on this? Was this a Sonic Boom? Or a total bust? Let me know in the comments below!
This has been Ryan from Games with Coffee, reminding you to Believe in Yourself, Live with No Regrets and Chase the Impossible! See you next time!
April 23, 2021 April 30, 2021 / Ryan Cheddi / Leave a comment
Welcome everyone to another edition of Games with Coffee! It’s the end of yet another productive week! For us up here, we’re in the midst of yet another lockdown as cases surge. I hope that wherever you are, you’re staying safe, following the rules and keeping healthy.
Today is an extension of the previous post: I’ll demonstrate how I set up my capture card. This will include how I adjusted my audio/visual settings to compliment my card and the testing methods I employed to ensure I get a near-perfect synchronization between game audio, microphone audio and camera. Let’s get to it.
Congratulations first of all! You now have a doohicky that can capture your gameplay from your gaming console and transmit it to your computer. As far as the instructions go, it’s simple. First, insert the HDMI cable from your console to the input side of the card. Second, connect the output to your TV. Finally, connect the data cable (typically a USB 2.0 or 3.0) from the card to your PC.
Once that’s in place, you can begin streaming! There are several ways that you can do so:
If you have an Elgato Capture Card, you can download the Game Capture software from their website. Once installed and opened, you’ll see this interface:
From here, you can modify the settings of your card depending on what you’re playing, including your microphone settings, game audio and titles. You can also link your streaming account to the software so that you can stream directly from it and record your gameplay. Now, to be perfectly frank, I’ve only used this software a few times. What I usually do is:
More specifically in my case, Streamlabs OBS, however, base OBS works just as well.
OBS integrates fairly well with most capture cards, especially with Elgato cards. While they work right out of the box, in order to utilize the card to the fullest extent within your stream, you’ll have to do a few modifications to your setup.
In order to get the most out of your capture card, it’s important to understand one main thing: external cards have a slight delay on them, due to their reliance on wired connections. That means that if you’re playing live, the card will be capturing a few seconds behind you. Chances are, your microphone and webcam are set to pick up audio/visual in real-time. What that means is that you could be broadcasting your reactions about gameplay events a few seconds ahead of your capture, which is what your audience will see. If that doesn’t bother you too much, then that’s perfectly OK! You have to stream the way you want to, after all.
If it does bother you though, you have a few options. The first is to replace the external card with an internal card that can be mounted into a PCI slot. Because it’s internally mounted, you wouldn’t suffer from latency issues and would be able to capture and broadcast content in real-time without making any adjustments to your camera and microphone. The two main drawbacks here are that these cards are first and foremost expensive to purchase, sometimes ranging over $200. Secondly, their use is limited to PCs only – laptops can only use external capture cards (to my knowledge – if you know otherwise, please share!).
The second option – which is what I’ve used and will discuss in detail – is to modify the delay on both your microphone and webcam to match the in-built delay on the capture card.
First off, connect your capture card to your console of choice and to your PC/laptop and then boot up OBS. I’ll be using Streamlabs OBS for demonstration purposes, but these methods will also work on base OBS.
Next, we’re going to play around with some delay settings on your microphone and webcam to sync it up to the captured gameplay. By doing this, you’ll be giving off the illusion that you’re playing and commenting on the game in real-time, despite being a couple of seconds ahead of your audience. That’s the main goal here!
Now, looking at this delay issue up on Elgato’s help site, it states that you’ll want to set your microphone and webcam delay to 650ms as the default. We’ll start with setting the delay to the microphone.
Go to where your microphone input is and under Sync Offset, set the value to 650. What this does is delay your microphone output to your audience by 650 milliseconds.
Next, under your sources, go to your webcam, right-click and select Filters.
In the Filters window, hit the + button and select ASync Delay. Then, set the delay to 650ms.
Once applied, you can visually notice a delay on your webcam broadcast, which is what your audience will see as well.
With these in effect, your mic and webcam should be roughly close to your captured gameplay. One way to test out if your mic and webcam have synched to your gameplay is to put on a platformer and record yourself saying “Jump” every time you press the jump button. Then, view the recording and see if your character (Mario, Sonic, whomever) jumps when you say “Jump” out loud.
If you’re using the base values above, chances are that synchronization is close but not quite there yet. Not to worry, as we can optimize the delay values to achieve total (or near-total) sync!
Now, adjusting the delay values depends on several factors. The first and foremost is the port that your capture card is connected to your laptop/PC. In my case, I have it hooked up to a USB expansion adaptor located at the front of my PC. The next factor is the cable that you’re using to connect the capture card to the PC. My Elgato is an older model and so, it utilizes USB 2.0 tech. That means that it’s quite slow compared to the newer models that use USB 3.0. The final factor is the HDMI cables that you’re using to connect between your TV, your console and your capture card. You don’t need the best of the best, just make sure you have a decent, undamaged cable.
Once you’ve got that confirmed, next comes the fun part: doing multiple audio and video tests and iterating your delay times after each test! Generally speaking, your audio and webcam delays should match one another, so after each recording, go to the mixer and filter settings respectively and adjust.
When it comes to narrowing down the best offset numbers, I found that the optimal way to do so is by trying to match the delay to the game’s audio. What I mean is, I muted my PC audio, hit record and then hummed or whistled along to the game audio from my TV, making sure my microphone captures my humming or whistling. Then, I reviewed the recording, adjusted the delays and re-recorded until my humming and the game’s audio matched perfectly! It’ll take about half an hour or so to narrow down the delay to a single millisecond, but the results are totally worth it! In my case, my current offset values are at 515ms. What’s great about this method is that it doesn’t require you to be musically inclined – all one has to do is make sure the humming (however off-key it sounds) syncs up to the game’s audio. If you’re having trouble with it, enlist a friend or a family member to help out!
And there you have it! A (hopefully) easy-to-understand guide on setting up an Elgato Capture Card. Note, I haven’t tried other cards, however, I’m pretty sure that the above steps would work with them just as well!
Do you own a capture card for streaming? Got it to work to your specifications? Let me know in the comments below!
Well, that’s it for this post. With that, this has been Ryan, reminding you to Live with No Regrets, Believe in Yourself and Chase the Impossible! See ya next time!
Welcome everyone to another edition of Games with Coffee! I hope everyone’s had a great week and is looking forward to the weekend!
As promised in my last post, today I’ll be talking about my streaming experience over the past year and share a few lessons I learned during that time.
Honestly, this can make or break a stream. When I first got into streaming back in 2018 or so, I had a budget-friendly refurbished laptop (that I later had to repair because the hard drive failed spectacularly…), a lapel microphone, some basic headphones and an Elgato HD60 Capture Card. I did one, maybe two streams using this setup before setting it aside for a year or so because I felt so intimidated by the whole process.
I revisited this back in 2019 and looked up specifics on what one needs to stream and this is what I found to work: A computer with mid-range specs on power and graphics, a monitor, a microphone and a pair of headphones. One could also get a webcam, but that’s really an optional piece of equipment – there are plenty of successful streamers who stream without ever showing their faces.
As for what software to use for streaming, there are several options. The most popular of them is OBS, which literally means “Open-source Broadcasting Software.” OBS is a robust and fairly simple software to use and there are plenty of tutorials on YouTube to help with the learning process. On top of that, there are several flavours of OBS. The one I use specifically is Streamlabs OBS. It has a clean UI and links your live stream site account (Twitch, YouTube, etc.) with your Streamlabs account. From there, you can add things like animated images for alerts, banners, track donations and follows and a whole bunch of other things.
I used GIMP to develop my overlays and logos. I designed my overlays using sprite backgrounds that you can find all through the internet that I tweaked to suit my preferences. My current overlay for my Sunday stream is based on the large level screen display thingy in Knuckles’ Chaotix, while my Tuesday stream uses classic text boxes from RPGs to emulate a menu screen.
An example of my current Sonic Sunday overlay. Elements not included :P.
In terms of my equipment, I have a fairly powerful PC with an AMD processor and an older model Nvidia graphics card. I mentioned that this was given to me by my cousin Lee, who is freakin’ awesome by the way! I’ll never stop saying that haha. I use two monitors: an ASUS one which is my main and an old 22” Samsung LCD TV as my secondary monitor. The TV is what I use to connect my older consoles on since it has dedicated A/V, composite and HDMI inputs as well as a separate headphone jack.
I still retained the Elgato HD60 capture card, however, I didn’t use it when I started out; I was still too intimidated by it. I only started using it fully this year to great success and I’ll present a tutorial on how I configured mine in a future post.
Having a good setup is nothing without having something to play! I honestly found this to be the fun part of streaming – planning what to play during your streams. When 2020 was around the corner, I knew immediately that the first games I wanted to stream were Sonic games, since I officially dubbed it the “Year of Sonic the Hedgehog,” due to my involvement with the “Characters That Define Us” collaboration. So, during the winter break, I compiled a list of Sonic games I planned on playing between February and June and I stuck with it (with deviations from time to time). After I got my list, I then picked a day that worked with my schedule. During a typical week in 2020, I had split my time between writing Mobius VII and spending time with my family. Saturdays were extremely busy but Sundays were not, so I chose Sunday nights to stream. Later in the year, I added a Tuesday stream where I played mainly retro action-adventure titles, like Alundra, Mega Man, Castlevania and Zelda, to name a few.
This habit of planning out what to play helped me be consistent with my streams while also giving me something to look forward to on the days I was streaming.
Retro Game Brews, a good, good friend of mine and fellow streamer, shared this extremely valuable piece of wisdom with me when I first started: Dealing with sound and video issues is a rite of passage within Twitch. Just as it’s important to have a good setup for streaming, it’s also important to test out your stream and adjust settings to suit your audience. With OBS and Streamlabs OBS, you have the option of recording yourself, which is vital for testing your setup. What I did was record myself playing and talking for about 30 seconds to a minute each time and then watching and listening afterwards to see both how the game and I sound. I also took the time to review my visual assets, like layouts and alerts and make sure they were coming out crisp and clear.
I then got into the habit of running tests and checking my stream settings prior to my broadcast. I did this because every game is different; the sound of some games comes out loud while other games are quiet. Sometimes my voice overpowers the game audio while sometimes I’m too quiet for my audience to hear. Bottom line is, it’s worth it to continue testing your setup prior to streaming.
The title speaks for itself. Don’t be so worried about consistently playing the most popular games around unless you’re really gunning for that Partner status. If you enjoy playing what you want to play, your enthusiasm will show and your audience will recognize that. In my case, playing Sonic games on Sundays helped me grow my audience base since those were the games I loved playing. Things would probably be different if I played a game that I wasn’t wholly interested in, despite its popularity.
On the other hand, even playing the most popular games might not garner enough attention from your audience. I did a stint of playing Final Fantasy VII Remake over the summer of 2020 and I noticed that my viewership dropped. It could be that the Remake just wasn’t interesting enough for my core audience, or it could be due to me using my PS4 as an alternate stream setup to play it, but I wasn’t drawing in people like I used to. Though it wasn’t a bad thing because I was able to make a great friend during the FFVII Remake journey and now he’s one of my favourite regulars!
As I mentioned above, I used my PS4 to stream my Remake game session. Looking back, I think I would have had better success if I utilized my capture card. This leads to my next lesson:
Capture Cards are a Godsend (Once Configured Properly)
Now, for most people, capture cards are quite intimidating. On the surface, they’re easy to operate – connect your console to the input side, connect your display to the output side, insert the data cable to your computer and voila! The capture card is connected and Ret-2-Go! (Sorry, I’ve been on a Shantae fix lately…)
Except that’s only half the battle. While the plug-and-play setup lets one instantly stream console games, I found that the Elgato capture card has an in-built latency delay due to the USB cable. That means that if I make a jump in real-time, my viewers will see that same jump about a couple seconds later. If you combine that with a webcam and mic set up that’s configured to pick up streamer audio/visual in real-time, viewers will see a synchronization delay which doesn’t look super professional. I figured out how to solve this sync problem (not without some issues) and so, I’ll be sharing a detailed post in the following week on how I synched up the audio/visual stuff to the capture card. I know this would be a big help for any up-and-coming streamers who are able to secure such a card!
So, the rig is ready, the mic and webcam are ready, the games are ready and the capture devices are ready. Now comes one of the biggest lessons I learned:
Consistency Is Key!
After figuring out the above, this lesson here is the most important – not only for streaming but also for anything in life.
Having a consistent and predictable schedule will help grow your audience. Period. Plan for it and let people know however you can. Share your schedule on social media, put it on your group chats, wave banners, shout it out from the rooftops if possible; it doesn’t matter, just get the word out! I found for myself that initially letting family and friends know that I’m streaming on x day at x hour ensured that I’d get at least a few viewers on my channel. Those views and interactions really helped when I started out!
Sometimes, life does get in the way of your consistent schedule, but that’s OK! If you can fit in a make-up day, go for it! If not, then delay until the following week. Don’t work for the stream, make the stream work for you.
Finally, there will be days where you’ll get a TON of viewers in your stream and there will be days when maybe one or two people show up. It doesn’t matter – just keep at it! Take every stream like you’re expecting a crowd to show up. Little by little, growth will happen!
Speaking of streaming growth, there are plenty of ways to do just that and my personal favourite is:
Networking!
Seriously, never underestimate the power of a good network.
It does require a bit of legwork, perseverance and goodwill, but it pays off in dividends once it gets going. Networking with others can be as simple as visiting another streamer’s channel and just having conversations with them. Don’t be rude though and be like “Yo, go check out my stream, bruh!” Be genuine and be patient. If the streamer does ask if you stream yourself, then it’s fair game! Share what you play, what you’re about and what days and times you stream and go from there. Sometimes, viewers of that very stream may end up following you, giving you more opportunities to draw an audience.
Two of the many ways I’ve networked were from my work as a games writer/blogger and through participating in streaming competitions. As you know, I’ve worked on a fair deal of collaboration projects with various writing groups. Along with reading some way past cool stuff, I also made a ton of great friends, some of which visit me on stream from time to time to partake in my adventures! To those great people who do so, thank you so much by the way!
I was also fortunate to participate in a few streaming competitions hosted by none other than Retro Game Brews. The first contest I was in was a Sonic 2 speed race within Emerald Hill Zone and it was a riot! Though I didn’t make it to the next rounds, I still had a blast and cheered on the other competitors who were all great sports! I’ve since played other great games such as Kung Fu (NES), Mike Tyson’s Punch-Out, Outrun (Genesis) and Super Punch-Out (SNES). My run on that last game was beyond epic because I finally beat the crud out of Super Macho Man, my nemesis from the original Punch-Out. Beyond finishing him off, I almost beat the game too! It was exciting!
Super Punch-Out ended up being my most memorable competition as it was the push I needed to reach Affiliate status. As I mentioned before in my last post, it was the best birthday gift I’ve ever received!
However, the best competition I had a blast with was the RGB High Score Castlevania Speed Run contest that occurred last year during Halloween. Though I love Castlevania, I was always intimidated with the first game – I’ve never finished it before and I was nervous about it. As I practiced and shared my progress with the competitors though (who all gave great speedrunning advice by the way!), I felt my confidence build up until I could beat it for the first time. And then I beat it in half an hour, which is pretty impressive when I think about it.
And my overlay was all kinds of hilarious and awesome
When it came to the actual run, I was gunning for sub 25 minutes as my overall goal. In the end, my best time ended up at just over 16 minutes! Here were my splits for that night:
During that time, I gained followers, earned bits from wonderful streamers and made some great, great friends who stop by either for a chat or initiate a raid from time to time. Bottom line is, networking works! Engage with your fellows in the community and you’ll see results. But networking is only half of the battle.
I may be waxing on about how easy streaming is, but I’ll be honest, it does take a lot of work. I built a lot of my own assets on my own, such as logos, overlays and BRB/Commercial screens. You also always have to be promoting your stream. Even though I’m doing this for fun, for some streamers, this is a way of life for them and so they’re grinding every day to get people to tune into their feed. That grind is something that I respect.
One of the most challenging things I feel that I need to work on more is to be more engaging. Streams live or die by how engaging the streamer is with the audience. I started off by sharing my wealth of Sonic trivia during my Sonic Sunday shows. I then did commentary explaining how I went through certain sections of the game I was playing, starting with Alundra on my Tuesday streams. There were times where I was distracted by the game that I couldn’t respond properly to chat or get my facts out straight without going with long pauses. It’s something I’m working on though.
Be Genuine
The biggest piece of advice I can give to make this work is to be genuine with others. It’s difficult to engage with your audience if you can’t muster up some authenticity within yourself. People are perceptive and they tune out if they can’t connect with you. So, talk with your audience! Laugh, cry, celebrate their victories, empathize with their anguish. Connect with them. The way I see it, every stream should feel like a couch session with your good friends and you all talk about everything under the sun while enjoying some good quality games. At least, that’s the impression I try to present whenever I stream.
The last lesson here is to, well, have fun! Enjoy what you play, ignore worrying about what’s popular or not and above all, have a good time with it. I guarantee that people will come to check you out and stay if you’re engaging, relaxed and having a good time with the games you’re playing.
Continuing on the subject, don’t be afraid to be silly on stream! This isn’t some overly professional setting like work (unless you treat it as such), so go nuts! Myself, I wear certain hats during my streams: Sundays I wear my Sonic hat and Tuesdays I wear a Legend of Zelda hat, in celebration of the series’ 35th anniversary.
And those are some of the things I learned during my first year of streaming. I hope this helps you out, whether you’re just starting or if you’ve been in the game for quite some time! Next week, I’ll share how I configured my capture card.
Are you streaming? What have you been playing? Do you have any further tips or lessons to share? If so, drop ‘em in the comments below!
If you want to see me live, be sure to tune in on Sundays and Tuesdays at 9:30pm EST!
That’s it for this post. With that, this has been Ryan, reminding you to Live with no Regrets, Believe in Yourself and Chase the Impossible! See ya next time!
Games with Coffee: Recapping 2020
April 2, 2021 March 24, 2021 / Ryan Cheddi / 2 Comments
(It’s been a while since we had a normal post, huh?)
Welcome everyone to the return of Games with Coffee! Mobius VII is done for now, but if you read the previous acknowledgements post, you’ll see that we’re not done yet! We’ve only just started on our journey through this fantastic world! AND I’ve even begun writing notes for the next edition! It’s more worldbuilding than anything else, but it’s a start.
So, while we’re now in 2021 and way past the four year anniversary of the site, I wanted to take some time to recap a few things that happened in that dreaded 2020. Honestly… It’s been readers like you that have been keeping me going through that tough phase, so again, thank you all so much for your support. It means a lot to me that you’re willing to take time out of your busy schedules to come down and check out my content. Much love to all of you!
2020. What a year it has been… And it was honestly one that didn’t start off on the right foot for me especially.
Three days into the new year, I was unceremoniously let go from my field inspection job. After two and a quarter years, the company I worked for at the time decided it was time to downsize the inspection department, which led to my job’s elimination. Luckily though, I bounced right back onto my feet and landed a job at my current place of employment. Here, I’m doing sales of all things, and strangely enough, I’m doing fairly well in it.
Who knew, right?
Anyway, I don’t want to bore you with too much work stuff, except for the fact that 2020 was the first and only year where I’ve worked inside of an office for a grand total of 14 days. The rest of the year was spent home – either searching for jobs during the first two months of the year and then working from home for the remainder. In fact, I’m still working from home now, but it hasn’t been to my detriment, thankfully.
Working from home has brought its own challenges, though. Balancing work with personal stuff was hard. Add in a toddler to the mix and you get a perfect storm of busyness. In a way, I appreciated that – that storm prevented me from getting too bored and lethargic and… well, it kept me sane.
All this time spent at home has helped me tremendously in finishing Book 1 of Mobius VII. By the time you read this, all 42 chapters will have been posted to the blog. It’s been a heck of a ride and I hope you all have enjoyed it as much as I have. As of this time, we’ll get back to a normal-ish schedule of things with new posts releasing every Friday. I found a system that works (relatively speaking), so we won’t see blackouts as we did through all of 2019 haha.
What this year has taught me, overall, is that reflection is good for the soul. No matter what job you have or what situation you’re in, if you don’t give yourself time to process how you feel about things, it can be hard to move on. A good example from gaming I can think of is Shadow from Sonic Adventure 2. Shadow initially wanted revenge on humanity for killing his best friend, Maria. However, after a conversation with Amy on Space Station ARK, Shadow reflected on it and finally remembered Maria’s wish – for him to help save humanity. Which he did at the end of the Final Story at the apparent cost of his life.
In my case, before I started my new job, I wrote a letter to myself to reflect on my feelings during the ten years since I started my career. I poured all the inadequacies, failures and disappointments I felt into words and then sealed it and all the objects and things that reminded me of how much I hated the last decade of my career into a box that I promised I wouldn’t open again for ten more years. I don’t exactly recall what I wrote in that letter now, but I know that I made a declaration on that piece of paper to never let those failures and disappointments affect me again.
Meanwhile, work wasn’t the only thing keeping me busy this year.
2020 was the year that I decided to start streaming. Back at the end of 2019, my cousin Lee gifted me a wonderful PC rig to use for streaming and gaming. This thing was much more powerful and robust than anything I’ve ever owned. With this in hand, coupled with my contribution to “The Characters That Define Us” collaboration by Normal Happenings, I decided to celebrate my love for Sonic the Hedgehog by streaming a whole bunch of Sonic games every Sunday starting in February. I took all of December and January to tweak my setup, get my equipment in order and create my layouts and heck, it paid off in spades! My consistency with my streams, coupled with participating in a few tournaments and networking with a bunch of great streamers allowed me to reach Affiliate status by July 13th – my birthday! Honestly, that was one of the best birthday presents I’ve ever received!
Now, streaming has become one of my favourite things to do besides writing and I’ve learned so much from the practice. The next post after this one will go into details about those lessons.
As I mentioned in the last section, I participated in a little collab called “The Characters that Define Us.” And by little, I mean over 50 amazing writers baring their souls about the characters that have helped them through thick and thin. Sometimes, these characters helped in small, minute ways. Others have impacted a writer’s life so much that they couldn’t imagine where they would be without them. My piece was about Sonic, of course. Writing about him helped me realize just how wonderful this life really is, even if I complain here and there about certain little things.
I was also a part of the Super Mario Multiverse collaboration set up by The Well-Red Mage in commemoration of Mario’s 35th anniversary. You can find my entry here.
I also participated in a charity stream for Stand Up 2 Cancer (SU2C), run by Andy AKA ProducerBTW. It was a great charity for a great cause. I learned a lot about fundraising and I’m hoping to do more charitable streaming this year. SU2C will be one of those that I’ll be working with for sure!
I bit the bullet and became a Patron for Story Mode: The Video Game Podcast. Starring my three good friends: Red (The Well-Red Mage), Blue (Wrytersview) and Ryebread (Retro Game Brews/Beer Ryan), they discuss the gaming news of the week and provide some colourful takes on various topics. They bring up some really interesting stuff and I highly encourage you to listen when you get a chance. The three hosts are hilarious and informative and they may hold differing opinions about certain things, but at the end of the day, they always Agree to Disagree. They are hosted on Buzzsprout, but you can also find them anywhere you find podcasts.
In spite of the pandemic, 2020 was not a bed of roses around the internet and within the gaming sphere. Toxicity within gaming had reached an all-time high and with people being completely burnt out from all the lockdowns, elections and uncertainty, I saw plenty of falling outs happen among good friends.
Speaking of which, despite being a homebody, I found this past year to be difficult in terms of talking with friends and family. I mean, I’ve been taking this thing seriously. I followed the rules and I’m trying to keep my family safe, but still, I see so many people not taking this seriously and it makes me wonder, are we even doing the right thing here? I dunno. People flaunting the rules, getting together, risking their lives and the lives they impact around them… man, it bothers me a little bit. I get the feeling though that things’ll get better soon. And they better – my mental health needs a bit of relief haha.
Also, right as this pandemic started, Mrs. Coffee had to go to surgery for gallbladder removal. Prior to that, she hadn’t eaten a solid meal in weeks and I was super worried about her… Thankfully, the issue has been fixed and she’s all better now!
If all that wasn’t enough, the calibre of games that were released this year were… mediocre at best? Well, save for a few good and unexpected ones, that is!
Games, Games, Games
Final Fantasy VII Remake released in March and of course, I had to get it! I didn’t start playing it until the summer though after I completed Book 1. The game started out really strong for me, but the plot direction at the end really threw me off. I’m thinking about giving the game another chance, perhaps when I get a PS5 for the Intergrade upgrade, but I’m flip-flopping about it. I’ll admit, there were a LOT of great things that happened in Remake. The combat system was just flippin’ fantastic and the voice acting was pretty good. While I mained Cloud in most battles, I really enjoyed playing as Tifa. Her techniques are so fluid and powerful and she moves so gracefully!
On the flip side, there were a lot of things wrong with it too. The Whispers being my biggest complaint. They were so in-your-face about the fact that “OOOOO you’re ch—-anging the fu——–ture! That’s not allo—-wed!” Honestly, it was really annoying. There were also several awkward moments that, while funny, didn’t really jive well with me. I mean, a dance number? Seriously, I know Cloud is pretty good at most things, but getting up on stage and Bollywood dancing with Andres was not one of those things I was expecting! Especially after the incredibly awkward high-five moment. Despite the alterations, I’m happy that they kept the cross-dressing sequence.
That’s despite the changes they made to the sequence itself…
The moment I was looking forward to the most was the Shinra Tower infiltration… and it was so-so? I liked some of the newer elements, like the detailed break room, but getting through The Drum on the 68th was just weird. Plus, the whole prison break sequence was completely removed and I was a bit disappointed with that. Sneaking around the blood-soaked corridors of the upper floors after being mysteriously released in the original was both terrifying and exciting the first time around. Speaking of blood, the absence of it from JENOVA’s release threw me way off. The purple goop made things interesting, but the blood would have been better.
Besides Remake, I played the Sega Ages version of Sonic the Hedgehog 2, released the same week as the Sonic the Hedgehog movie, and it was awesome! I wrote a review on both the game and the movie. At this current moment, the game review is unavailable, but give it a few months and you’ll see it up again soon.
On top of that, I played Sonic Lost World for the very first time and I honestly don’t get why it’s so disliked? Sure, the writing was a bit subpar and there were some questionable level design decisions, but the introduction of parkour mechanics felt like a natural evolution on how Sonic is supposed to move. I’m currently writing a review on that game which will be released in a couple of month’s time (due to restructuring on the site that I write for).
So much fun!
In fact, since I dedicated 2020 to be the “Year of Sonic,” I’ve been playing several other Sonic games that I’ve never played before! Some examples include Sonic and Sega All-Star Racing, All-Star Racing Transformed and Tails Adventure.
I also played Final Fantasy XII – The Zodiac Age and Dragon Quest XI – two RPG’s that were phenomenal! I never finished the original FFXII (which I still own for PS2), but the quality of life changes within the TZA edition made it much easier to complete. As for Dragon Quest XI… I love that game! It’s so dense and epic and it pretty much rivals my love for DQ VIII – my all-time favourite entry of the series. I still haven’t finished all of XI just yet – I need to do some grinding and prepare my characters for the ultimate final battle against Calasmos.
In the tail end of the year, I picked up Shantae and the Pirate’s Curse and Shantae: Half-Genie Hero. I only recently started playing them, but oh man, are they a ROMP! Both games have hilarious dialogue and tight gameplay. Half-Genie Hero has tons of alternate game modes to play after the main story, and even includes increased difficulty modes.
One game that I really wanted to play after hearing about it so much was Ghosts of Tsushima. The game itself looks breathtaking – you can visit locales and compose haiku, take photos of beautiful environments, do battle honourably as a samurai or even use less-than-honourable methods to take out the invading Mongol forces. It looks like a treat to play and I definitely need to make it a priority to get this one.
Despite the rest of 2020’s offerings being controversial (The Last of Us 2, Cyberpunk 2077) or just OK (Final Fantasy VII Remake), the standout game for this year, in my opinion, was Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity. The story takes place a hundred years before the events of Breath of the Wild and honestly, this era was perfect for a Dynasty Warriors-style game. I’ve only started playing it and I’m having so much fun revisiting the characters and environments that it honestly makes me want to go back and explore the corners of Hyrule once more. What’s more, the combat is exhilarating and mindless! Mowing down hundreds of Bokoblins never felt so good!
2021 is turning out to be a huge year so far. There are so many gaming milestones being celebrated this year alone. Among those include Pokemon, Super Mario 64, Crash Bandicoot and Resident Evil, which celebrate their 25th anniversaries. Street Fighter II and Battletoads celebrate their 30th. Finally, Metroid and Dragon Quest celebrate their 35th!
But there are two anniversaries that are the most important to me. They are The Legend of Zelda, which is celebrating its 35th anniversary and Sonic the Hedgehog, which turns the big 30 this June! To commemorate those milestones, I’ve been playing a plethora of Sonic and Zelda games on my Sunday and Tuesday streams respectively.
Writing-wise, I’ve done at least one collaboration for The Legend of Zelda – I wrote a piece about Zelda II, my favourite in the series. I’ll also be collaborating with a bunch of other writers about the Sonic series and those entries will be coming later this year, post-Sonic’s birthday.
I’m going to update the site a bit to include links to all my collaborations. I was supposed to do that from time, but I just never got around to it.
Meanwhile, I’m in the planning stages for the next installment of Mobius VII. I’ve started worldbuilding and layout of the plot with the hope that I can start writing the first chapters by around the end of summer. Continuing on the subject of Mobius VII, I’m producing a podcast series on how I wrote the first book. This will be an in-depth discussion on how I framed the plot of FFVII around the Sonic the Hedgehog universe and will include references to various Sonic media and other things. The plan is to have the first ten episodes ready by summer, look forward to more news and progress in the coming months!
There’s also another story here that I need to finish and that is The Legend of Zelda: Black and White – a fanfiction I started on a whim three years ago. It’s a shorter series, with ten or twelve chapters total, so it shouldn’t take too long to finish that one. The layout for it is done, all that’s left is to write the rest of the story out.
As for ongoing posts, I’ll be putting out content every Friday or so. Fridays seem to be the most popular and easiest of days to post, so that’ll be the schedule from now on. Next up will be what I’ve learned from streaming, as I mentioned above.
Finally, in personal news, I’ve been more physically active lately. I felt like my health has been sliding as of late, so I got back into a workout routine and eating right and it’s been a big help so far! I feel a big difference two months in compared to how I started 2021. I’ve also been analyzing and taking notes on several books I’ve read so far this year in hopes to improve my writing. I may be decent right now, but I want to be a better writer for the future! Currently, I’m reading Atomic Habits in the hopes that I can find a way to make writing practise a daily habit. Spur of the moment things are great, but I need to put out stuff consistently while keeping up with other projects.
And with that, we come to the end of this very long update! I promise these posts’ll be shorter haha. How has 2020 treated you? Have you become stronger in spite of the challenges faced over the past year? Let me know in the comments below.
With that, this has been Ryan reminding you not only to Keep Gaming and Keep Brewing, but to Live With No Regrets, Believe In Yourself and Chase After The Impossible! See you all next time!

After almost 15 years, Book I of Mobius VII has been completed and published to the world. As I’m writing this from my loyal and dedicated streaming rig in my basement/home office, I still can’t believe that this has happened. That’s actually the first thing I want to thank: the machines that have carried me so far in my journey.
I started writing this story on a chunky HP laptop running a Pentium 4 processor. That hefty machine helped me write the first original 18 or so chapters until I upgraded to a slimmer and more powerful laptop. I wrote the next five on that one before I scrapped the original draft and started the rewrite. When that laptop crapped out on me, I switched to a ultra-portable 2-in-1 hybrid laptop. It was severely underpowered, but was light enough to carry around and write with. It’s the computer that I built Games with Coffee on.
A year or two after that, the laptop’s keyboard became unresponsive and I had to purchase workarounds to keep up with writing. I eventually bought a refurbished laptop who’s screen broke about two years ago. That’s when my cousin, Lee, came in and offered his assistance. He recently upgraded his PC and offered to build a rig of my own using the old spare parts that he would have thrown away otherwise. I graciously accepted his offer and so I have to thank him and my beloved rig. Without his help and without this powerhouse of a computer, I would probably still be working on this first book at this very moment.
I also want to extend thanks to my younger brother, Shane. He was my original beta reader from day one. He listened to my crazy ideas and understood my passion towards this project. Though he oftentimes mentioned that I drove him nuts, he nevertheless was my sounding board and confidant during the early years of the story. Eventually, he stopped being my beta, because he told me (in his own words), “This thing is too damn long.”
Thanks also goes to my other two beta readers: The Mail Order Ninja aka Daniel Flatt and Winst0lf aka Bizzaro aka Craig Rathbone. Those two guys were both instrumental in making sure that Book I looked and sounded its best and my biggest hype men for spreading the word about it. You guys are amazing and I cannot thank you both enough for all your efforts, both big and small.
I also want to thank Moses Norton and Chris Durston, authors of “The Last Stitch Goes Through The Nose” and “Each Little Universe” and personal friends in the games writing sphere. You both really inspired me to get this thing finished once and for all.
Thanks goes to Alfonso aka Infernal on Discord, who has told me that this was his very first fanfiction and that he greatly enjoyed it. Thank you for putting in such a great word about the story man, it really boosted my confidence. Thanks also to Jeffery aka Virtua Neptune, a fellow writer and a fun guy to hang out with. I always appreciate our talks.
To my dear, recurrent readers, thank you, thank you, thank you. I’m so glad that I was able to deliver a story that kept you coming back for more. More than that, I’m glad you enjoyed it!
I want to send a special shout out to DirtySciFiBuddah aka Kent Wayne, who has never failed to like each chapter of the story. Much love to you, my man. I have to check out your work sometime as well.
To my family members who have read this story, thank you for doing so. Yes, this was ambitious and maybe a little out there for some of you guys, but I still appreciate the support!
Also, thank you mom and dad. Dad for teaching me the love of reading at a young age, and mom for always pushing me, even if we argued constantly because of it.
Thank you to the creators of Sonic the Hedgehog and Final Fantasy VII. Without those two, I’d never be who I am today.
There are two other very important people that I need to thank and those are my wife, Usha and my son, Arjun. Ush is my planner babe and quite possibly the biggest reason I write. She inspires and pushes me creatively and though I doubt I can ever reach the heights she’s rapidly ascending to, at least she’s pulling me up alongside her for the ride.
As for Arjun… Son, I did it. Though you may be reading this years and years from now (Hopefully the site stays up for that long!), know that you’ve been a big part as to why I got this first book finished. Here, I’ve proven that I can finish what I start, even if it took way longer than it should have. I hope I made you proud, boy.
Well, good news is, Book II is definitely happening. I’ve started something that I can’t just abandon now. As the saying goes, there ain’t no gettin’ offa this train. So, Book II will be coming. I have a base layout of what this next installment will span. Know that as of Chapter 42, things will progress similarly to the original game, but differently at the same time. There will be familiar events as well as new scenarios that bring to light some of the events that unfolded prior to the beginning of the story. These include the war on Mobotropolis, for instance.
The plan is to start the layout fairly soon; say around summer or so. From there, I’m hoping to start the first draft in the winter and have the whole thing ready to edit and beta by the end of 2022. So, there’s gonna be a bit of a wait, unfortunately. However, I’m not leaving you all hanging! In between now and then, I want to share with you the process, the inspirations and some of the secrets within the story through a podcast! I’m laying out the groundwork as I speak, but I’m so excited to share with all of you how this whole thing came to existence!
On top of that, I’ll be porting the story to other fanfiction sites, such as Fanfiction.net, Wattpad and AO3. Call this moment the expiration of the “timed exclusivity” period. The original will still reside on Games with Coffee, along with all the extras, such as Character Bios and the World Archives. Those will be updated more frequently from this point on.
It’s late now as I finish writing this up and I feel a mixture of pride and sadness. Pride because it’s done. Sadness also because it’s done. But though every journey has an end, the beginnings of the next one are just around the corner. Here’s hoping that all of you will join me when it begins. For now, I’ll sign off by saying three simple things:
Live with no regrets.
Believe in yourself.
See ya next time.

Gamer’s Thoughts/Rant: “So, you play game X?”

Secret Valentine: Brought to you by Adventure Rules!
February 14, 2018 February 24, 2018 / Ryan Cheddi / 3 Comments
Happy Valentines Day from Games with Coffee!
Ian from Adventure Rules had initiated a fun way to celebrate the occasion: Writing about a Secret Valentine! A bunch of us bloggers signed up and were given individuals in the blogosphere to write up about.
On today’s edition, I’ll be sharing my secret valentine, who is a mother of two, twin toddlers, and has shared her experiences and struggles to become a mother, along with advice to new and expectant mothers – Debi from Womb 2 Cradle n’ Beyond!
There are but a few posts on her blog, but they are all very meaningful and can help with couples struggling to conceive. I can somewhat relate with this; it took us quite some time for us to have a baby of our own, partially due to wanting to wait until we were ready and partially due to unexpected problems while trying to conceive. Today, our little baby bean is now over a month old! I have not had any proper sleep for a month and I’m thrilled about it! (Thank the Gods for Coffee!)
Below are a few posts that you guys should take a look at, especially if you’re thinking of bringing in a Lvl. 1 Human into your party!
One post lists the several causes of infertility and what both men and women can do to help boost fertility. The post is very informative and the advice given can be applied to both men and women alike. (it takes two, remember?!)
Another notes the top 10 myths about pregnancy and miscarriage. I wish I read this list earlier, since my wife (who, as a lettering hobbyist, is damn good at making words look pretty), is obsessed with pineapples and papayas and abstained from eating them throughout her pregnancy, fearing that she wouldn’t conceive or she would give birth prematurely if she ate it. She has indulged in eating copious amounts of papaya on a daily basis since giving birth. Fortunately, that myth and others listed in Debi’s post have been debunked, including myths that pregnant women should not work out or drink coffee of any amount.
Finally, she has a post about how to manage commonly occurring ailments during pregnancy. It’s super helpful for both men and women, since they can take the steps listed to alleviate some of the common status effects pregnancy can inflict on their favourite person, like backaches, heartburn and the like.
These are but a few, but great, examples of the stuff Debi has on her blog. If you get a chance to, check her site out and drop a line!
And Debi, please keep doing what you do; your advice is helpful to a lot of people! Keep it up!
Well, that’s all for today. Join me for the next edition, which hopefully will come soon (or whenever my little buddy gives me chances to write!)
This has been Ryan from Games with Coffee, wishing you all a Happy Valentines Day and reminding you to Keep Gaming and Keep Brewing!

Today, I had an unpleasant surprise this morning on the train to work. I found out that two websites actually stole my content! This was such a let down since the amount of content that was stolen from me is more than just one article. It’s almost all my articles from December. While I was working on contacting other sites and blogs that got content stolen, a good blogging friend of mine Drakulus wrote this article. And it’s actually a great lesson to learn.
What do you if you come across stolen content? Do you ignore it? Or do you do something about it? What if the stolen content you come across is yours?
WordPress is a great place to publish content of all sorts. Some people like to use it as a diary. While others, like myself, us it to express their love for gaming by reviewing games, writing…

Innovation and Diversity

“One of the major tools in fighting the crisis is entrepreneurship.” Interview with Metin Kazak, Bulgarian MEP
What do you think will be important for the European citizens in the upcoming elections?
The 2014 EU elections will be very important in the aftermath of the entry force of the Lisbon Treaty and the new powers that the EP received from this treaty. I think that what is essential for the European citizens is that the European Parliament has already influenced, and will have even more influence, on the every-day life of many EU citizens.
Do you think that the message is different for Bulgarian citizens?
No, there are no fundamental differences. For the Bulgarian citizens it is important that in 2014 they can expect the disregard of all restrictions related to the access to the labour markets in the other EU member states. Furthermore, Bulgarian and Romanian citizens should feel equal to the rest of the EU citizens and have equal rights, and Bulgaria should also have its say in the decision-making process at the EU-level.
What will be your personal core issues during the electoral campaign? What issues do you feel you need to “fight” for at the European level? And what kind of change would you like to see?
For me, it is of crucial importance that the EU continues to stand as one, defending basic human rights and fundamental freedoms.
There should be equality and anti-discrimination for all EU citizens, regardless of their ethnic and religious background, beliefs or social position. We are facing more and more intolerance in the EU countries, islamophobia, hate-speeches and racism, especially towards the citizens of the new member states. You see what is happening in Netherlands, United Kingdom and France with the Roma minorities, etc. For me, it will be a huge challenge that the EU maintains its zero-tolerance against intolerance. This will be my most important message to pass forward, especially to the Bulgarian voters: we have to fight for our rights as equal members of the European Union.
As a member of the Committee on International Trade, you are aware that access to international markets is a great challenge for European SMEs. Our members, whom we refer to as New Europeans, are all entrepreneurs and business professionals with a migrant background? Do you think they can help European SMEs expand abroad?
Yes, I think that one of the greatest challenges in the EU now is to fight against the economic crisis, stagnation, and fear of a more globalised economy. I think that one of the major tools in this fight is to promote entrepreneurship. One of the key players in these efforts are the SMEs because they are contributing a lot in order to allow the entrepreneurs, even in small towns within the EU, to make these changes; to allow more possibilities for citizens to earn their money, to commerce with others and to contribute to the expansion of social and economic welfare in Europe.
Has your dual Bulgarian-Turkish background played a role in your own professional and personal development?
I think that Bulgaria has a good climate for traditional tolerance between different ethnic groups. I think this is an asset that we have to develop and promote. We used to talk a lot about the so-called Bulgarian-ethnical model of tolerance, so this model is one of the major achievements of our democratic transition. Therefore, for me it is also important to continue promoting this model at EU level.
As intolerance and xenophobia are rising in many of the EU countries, I think that Bulgaria has the possibility to show to the other countries that we have equal representation at all levels, especially in the political one, of all the ethnic and religious groups. This has happened because of the wise approach that was undertaken in the beginning of the transition: allowing the minority groups to have political representation in all political parties, which was done peacefully.
As a member of the Delegation to the EU-Turkey Joint Parliamentary Committee, what do you think of the current state of EU-Turkey relations?
The reform process that is ongoing in Turkey is actually very positively perceived in the EU. Of course, there is still a lot to be done in the framework of liberties, human rights, reforms, freedom of speech and press, but I think that the last steps taken by Turkish officials are very promising. Of course, we must see more offers by both sides in the process of finding a solution to the Cyprus problem. However, this is not only in the hands of Turkey. The EU also has to play a more active role and facilitate the dialogue between the two communities, in order to achieve comprehensive solution to this problem.
But in general terms, I think that both sides, Turkey and the EU, are winners of the enhancement of the cooperation and future integration of Turkey to the EU.
You have mentioned the positive economic contributions of our members, but New Europeans’ political and social involvement should also be better brought to light and fostered. How could Europe further the integration of New Europeans? Do you think business organisations such as UNITEE and its member associations can play a role in this regard?
Yes, I think that this is very important for the internal EU cohesion, that the so-called New Europeans and old Europeans know more about each other and that they understand each other and cooperate between each other. The role of civil society is very important in this aspect. Organisations, such as UNITEE, are very helpful in this regard. Activities between SMEs and entrepreneurs from a migrant background in the EU, help the public in the EU member states understand that EU citizens from a foreign background are not dangers, but rather the opposite of that – a facilitator, a contributor to the welfare in the EU. They are contributing economically, socially, culturally, to the idea of the very basic EU value of diversity. Therefore, I think that this mission of organisations, such as UNITEE, has to be supported.

From left, Democratic presidential candidates former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg, Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., former Vice President Joe Biden, former South Bend, Ind., Mayor Pete Buttigieg, Sen. Amy Klobuchar, D-Minn., stand on stage before a Democratic presidential primary debate Wednesday in Las Vegas, hosted by NBC News and MSNBC.
Six Democratic presidential hopefuls met on the debate stage in Las Vegas, but it was the newcomer, former New York Mayor Mike Bloomberg, who received the most attention, and none of it positive. Here are some key takeaways from the debate.
Bloomberg was the object of scorn, ridicule and contempt. And that was just in the first five minutes of the debate.
With all candidates flashing heat, a measure of the urgency they feel to survive in what is becoming an increasingly bitter nomination fight, the attacks focused on Bloomberg were a clear measure of his perceived strength. He has spent more than $400 million so far on advertising that in turn has given him strong standing in state and national polls.
Sen. Bernie Sanders recalled Bloomberg’s support of stop-and-frisk policing targeting minorities. Sen. Elizabeth Warren recalled how Bloomberg had mocked women for being “horse-faced” and “fat” and compared him to Trump. Sen. Amy Klobuchar quipped that “I don’t think you look at Donald Trump and say I think we need someone richer in the White House.” Former Vice President Joe Biden said Bloomberg condoned racist police practices, and Pete Buttigieg, the former mayor of South Bend, Ind., said Bloomberg was trying to “buy out” the Democratic Party.
But his biggest struggle came when Warren hammered him over allegations of sexism and mistreatment of women in his company.
Bloomberg attempted to defend his record and deflect the attacks on him by turning them into attacks on President Trump. And he effectively raised questions about whether Americans would embrace a socialist like Sanders.

But the glare was harsh, and the attacks landed with force.
Even if you are worth $60 billion it is hard to win a 5-on-1 fight.
Not the era of good feeling
For eight debates, the Democrats largely tiptoed around disagreements except for desultory disputes about health care policies. But on Wednesday night, everyone came with sharp elbows.
It was almost impossible to keep track of the fights. Buttigieg and Klobuchar tussled over experience and the Minnesota senator forgetting the name of Mexico’s president. Buttigieg and Sanders argued about the Vermont senator’s big-ticket plans and refusal to release his full medical records. Warren clashed with Buttigieg and Klobuchar over their health care plans. And everyone piled onto Bloomberg.
The former New York mayor was the only candidate who didn’t really go on the attack, other than the occasional swipe at the self-declared socialist Sanders.
In the end, that dynamic may again benefit Sanders, who leads in the polls and is watching his rivals spend most of their energy tearing each other down rather than targeting him.
Return of Warren the fighter
Warren rose to prominence in the Democratic field with a fighting spirit that defined the early months of her campaign. But her disappointing showings in Iowa and New Hampshire left her campaign struggling.
On Wednesday, she decided to get back into the fight.
She slammed Bloomberg — that was no surprise as she’s been an antagonist of billionaires playing in politics for years. But Warren also attacked Klobuchar, saying her health care plan was just a “Post-it note.” She accused Buttigieg of being in debt to his rich campaign supporters and having a health care plan that was just a “PowerPoint” designed by his consultants. She slammed fellow liberal Sanders, accusing him of letting his supporters trash anyone with a plan.
But it was her prosecutorial approach to Bloomberg over his company's treatment of women that stood out.
Whatever happens on Saturday, and beyond, Warren regained her fighting voice.
Buttigieg, who finished in the top two in Iowa and New Hampshire with Sanders, reserved some of his harshest criticism for Sanders, a man 40 years his elder.
He warned that Democrats could wake up after more than a dozen states vote on Super Tuesday on March 3 and have only Bloomberg and Sanders left on the ballot. He then quipped that the party may want to nominate “someone who is actually a Democrat.”
The crowd inside the Las Vegas casino hadn’t yet finished chuckling and hooting when he continued by saying Sanders “wants to burn this party down” and Bloomberg “wants to buy this party out.”
Sanders, a senator from Vermont and avowed democratic socialist, responded by saying that Buttigieg's campaign has been too reliant on “billionaire” big donors, touching off another intense exchange.
Their back and forth continued through criticism of Sanders supporters who have frequently been accused of bullying behavior online. Sanders said he personally had denounced such behavior. This prompted Buttigieg to say he believed the senator but, “What it is it about your campaign in particular that seems to be motivating this type of behavior?”
On this night, Buttigieg had the most at stake, with Sanders standing in Nevada polls well ahead of the man who has run even with him in the first two contests.
But Sanders did nothing likely to undermine his standing as the leading candidate so far.
The last debate was rocket fuel for Klobuchar. Her strong performance vaulted her to a third-place finish in New Hampshire and onto Nevada. But it may be hard for lightning to strike twice.
The Minnesota senator often got drowned out in the high-octane bickering Wednesday, or pulled down into the mud. At one point she pulled from her supply of ready quips, saying of Sanders and Bloomberg as they argued over capitalism that there is “a boxing rematch in Vegas on Saturday and these guys should go down there.”
The most damaging exchange was between Klobuchar and Buttigieg, who have tangled before. Asked about her embarrassing gaffe in forgetting the name of Mexico’s president, she had to fend off Buttigieg, who claimed it disproved her argument that Washington has prepared her to be president. She also alternately scrapped with and aligned with Warren.
“Are you calling me dumb?” Klobuchar asked Buttigieg incredulously. Later, she added, “I wish everyone was as perfect as you, Pete.”
A little over a week ago in New Hampshire, Klobuchar clearly stood out. This time was much harder as everyone battled for survival.
Did Biden revive his campaign?
Another candidate in need of a big night to reverse perceptions that his campaign was struggling was Biden.
For a good portion of the debate, he receded. He joined in the attacks on Bloomberg, but largely avoided some of the more testy exchanges.
When Warren said that Biden was "in the pocket” of Republican Mitch McConnell, the Senate majority leader, Biden fought back. He also tried to return to his “Middle Class Joe” biography about his family's financial struggles.

Next, make sure you consult with your educational funding workplace to get aside if you find yourself at the restriction during the federal student education loans. The Department regarding Studies do set an entire existence maximum for the just how much you could have call at federal college loans. You’d like to learn well before classes start if you’re close to otherwise at this limit so that you are not taken by the surprise of the an urgent university fees expenses. When you’re close to that restrict, that is where you could potentially benefit when you look at the borrowing regarding an exclusive financial.
Where Individual College loans May help

Injury or declining athletic performance can strike any horse, but prompt examination can often prevent further damage and put your partner back on the path to a productive, happy life. Our veterinarians are skilled in assessing lameness and movement disorders. The lameness examination typically consists of:
musculoskeletal exam, including palpation of joints and tendons
movement exam, including jogging in-hand, on a lunge-line, and/or under saddle
Diagnostic nerve and joint blocks are utilized as necessary to locate the problem area. Once identified, other diagnostic tools such digital radiography and ultrasonography can be employed to evaluate the structures. In some cases, GVEC may refer the patient for MRI, CT scan, or bone scan in order to reach a diagnosis. Treatment plans can then be tailored to the individual needs of your horse, and may include:

Folliard had 2.5 tackles for loss for minus 12 yards that included a 10-yard quarterback sack. He added a pass break-up as the Huskie defense gave up just seven points in the final 43:45 seconds of the game.

A reader asked yesterday about Episode 6 of You Know They Know, The Oakland County Child Killer, by J. Reuben Appelman (https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/you-know-they-know-the-oakland-county-child-killer/id1487318415), specifically about the 1992 conversation between a man who had been friends with my brother Tim and a retired detective and whether there had been any follow up on this. https://catherinebroad.blog/2020/08/16/the-solution-backfired/comment-page-1/#comment-14776
I responded as follows:
cathybroad
March 21, 2022 at 6:39 pm (Edit)
Hi Eric, your observations made me reread notes I have concerning Episode 6 of You Know They Know, by J. Reuben Appelman. I also reread the portion of Marney Keenan’s book about Cory Williams informing Jack Kalbfleisch about Tim Nummer identifying Jack’s photo as the cop who spoke with him at Somerset Mall about Tim’s case.
Jack is basically a good human, has spoken with Marney Keenan after her book was published, but it seems he will never explain the true extent of what he knows or suspects about the Busch “suicide”/coverup. No straight answers on this. He has never given up on this case and maybe he just believes Busch was a pedophile who got murdered but was not the OCCK. After all, every honest, hardworking cop got that line of Busch and Greene passed the polygraph, they’re in the clear, move on!! It still doesn’t explain any version of what he said to Tim Nummer.
Although I do not put him in the same category as Patterson, Thompson, Robertson or Krease–or a few other cops from that era that I now consider dirty, I can tell you that when my family learned it was Jack who spoke with Tim Nummer, we were all more than deeply disappointed and felt betrayed. I remember thinking “I give up.” I will tell you that from the beginning, the part of Tim Nummer’s recollection where he understood this was not something the families ever wanted raised and were “ok with it,” was chilling to me, my brothers and my dad. Pretty good way to keep someone who doesn’t want to hurt his dead friend’s family quiet, don’t you think? Who would make that shit up?! Parts of it don’t make sense, but this is the OCCK case where that is the norm.
But you know how this stuff works, especially decades later–the cop is believed and the civilian is thrown under the bus. We’ve seen it time and again. If the police don’t like the “story,” they bury the messenger. Tim Nummer was just mistaken. Alpena Witness was mistaken. And why did both of you wait so long to come forward?! The witness to Kristine’s abduction was a child, and two cops from Berkley PD told him to shut his pie hole and then tormented him FOR YEARS, punishing him for coming forward. For my money, I’d trust a kid who had no reason to lie before I would trust a cop.
So we will never get a straight answer here, Eric. I think it is a combination of ego, the “Blue Code,” and just plain fucking up.
A few people have been generous and kind enough to help me with these types of questions. I’m telling you, the level of stonewalling, gaslighting and bullshit is soul-crushing. Someone who is wiser than I helped me parse the issue of a cop telling A FRIEND OF TIM’S some version of the case had been “handled” years before and that the families knew and were ok with it because they just wanted to move on with their lives.
I think that analysis provided to me on this issue is very sound and I am going to post it tonight. It’s as close as I’m going to understand how this shit went down. Readers can make up their own minds.
Thank you for your kind words.
Here is the analysis I think is as close as you can get to evaluating the exchange the reader asked about and related issues:
MSP collaborates with Identifiers International and genetic genealogists, GED match and Family Tree DNA to solve 35-year-old cold case.
Posted: March 21, 2022 | Author: cathybroad | Filed under: Uncategorized | 3 Comments
Demonstrating that in cases other than the OCCK case, the Michigan State Police Lab is capable of collaboration with more cutting edge DNA and genetic genealogy labs and companies, the MSP was able to identify and arrest a suspect in a 35-year-old murder case.
https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/crime/indiana-man-agrees-to-deal-that-effectively-means-he-ll-die-in-prison-for-35-year-old-cold-case-murder-of-woman-whose-throat-was-slit-in-her-own-kitchen/ar-AAVkalE?ocid=msedgntp
The MSP collaborated with Identifinders International LLC, and had genealogists use genome sequencing and uploaded it to public databases to construct a family tree and then hone in on the suspect in this case. The 67-year-old suspect pleaded no contest to the 1987 murder of Roxanne Leigh Wood and faces a minimum 23-year sentence.
The MSP needs to step up to the plate in the OCCK case, for once. Because your evidence retention methods were indefensibly lame in this case (for reasons I could write about at length) and the evidence may have even been used in your training of recruits over the decades (we’ll never need it! The killer is long dead, forgetaboutit), you will have to consult with Othram Labs (https://othram.com/) or a similar laboratory to try to obtain DNA evidence. Then it’s the next steps–genome sequencing, establishing a family tree, and solid detective work to put those pieces together with your incredibly large, but apparently virtually unusable, database. You did it in Mrs. Wood’s case and you can do it in the OCCK case.
You did it for victim Roxanne Leigh Wood, but you won’t do it for four pre-teen victims of a serial killer, Mark Stebbins, Jill Robinson, Kristine Mihelich and Tim King.
You need to make this right or you may need to stop sending out press releases about your big “scores” in other very old cold cases where you are using the technologies law enforcement agencies around the world are using every day to solve crimes, and continue to fail the OCCK victims.

Saw the movie Pig (2021) recently, it was alright, it was a bit hyped up. I guess film people are so tired of John Wick movies that seeing a similar premise not tick any of the usual boxes (mainly pointless violence) feels fresh. It avoids the obvious and I didn't know where it was going but in the end nothing actually happens or gets accomplished. Which is the point I suppose.
I'm not someone who wants a loud action popcorn movie but I guess I wanted more detail from it? Idk have like a 10 minute monologue about the truffle business, least I would have learned something. Instead it was very minimal with half of the situations resolved with Nicolas Cage knowing a lot of people, like in a "howd this hobo looking dude get so many connections???? who is this guy????" which is not subtle at all and gets tiring after awhile.
I mean I """get it""" it's not really about the pig but the loss of his wife, or dealing with loss in general. But I also didn't really connect with the message which is more important than the message. I mean I had a cat die a year or so ago and had a lot of inner feelings develop from that isn't just about a pet but a sense of time feeling temporary and the melancholy that comes from that, something the movie barely scratches for me and idk. It also boils down to, there are things more important than business, and that's family : ) which Vin Diesel does a better job at conveying.
Now to watch Lamb cause I guess 2021 is just farm animal movies.
Could I BE any more Chandler Bing from Friends (TM)?

Around Halloween we started watching older horror movies that we hadn't seen yet! What we got around to:
Jennifer's Body: Feels like Mean Girls but as a silly horror movie. It mixes the camp and the offbeat horror REALLY well and I enjoyed it a lot. Young Neil is surprisingly good at acting. Apparently a cult classic?
Ginger Snaps: Two teen sisters grow apart because of puberty and because one is a werewolf. Surprisingly scary! Had zero idea how it was going to end!
Hellraiser: Man gets bored of Sex and decides to try out Sex 2, accidentally summons some demons instead. It has a very typical buildup of 80s-90s American horror movies - right off the rip you know spooky stuff is coming, but it's a slow burn about a messy family first. The demons are unsettling in a good way but it still has a good amount of cheesiness as well. Pretty gory.
Young Frankenstein: The story of Doctor Frankenstein, as told by Mel Brooks. I was a bit disappointed, actually! Gene Wilder is usually a really funny actor but I think the gags kind of just fell flat? Maybe it's just of a different era, but I thought it was... fine. The bit with the gendarme's metal arm had me cackling.
I'm a bit bummed to hear Pig wasn't great though! I was hoping it would be a really, really ridiculous version of Taken. I don't know what that would look like but it sounds like it missed the mark :/

Oh, that's a shame. Young Frankenstein is one of my favorites. At least you enjoyed something from it.
Now, I'm gonna be quoting it all day...

I felt like Young Frankenstein wasn't supposed to be quite as funny as Brooks's other films like Spaceballs or Blazing Saddles, since it had a bit of sincere drama in it as well. So it had silly gags like Frau Blucher *whinnying sounds in the background* in one scene and Dr Frederick Frankenstein coming to grips with his grandfather's reputation as an ongoing conflict, but the dramatic scenes and the silly gags never really feel out of place.
I just realized that Matrix: Resurrections was already released, but I'm still not sure if I want to watch it. Partially because I felt like Revolutions was a satisfying conclusion to the story, and partially because Morpheus was my favorite character and Laurence Fishburne kicked ass, having a Matrix movie with Morpheus but no Fishburne just feels incomplete.

Word is, Resurrections is so bad, people are actually starting to reconsider their hate for Revolutions. There's also a rumor going around that Warner Bros. burnt Lana Wachowski so bad she deliberately made the movie shit as revenge. There's some legitimacy to this because apparently, Neo works for a game development company that is constantly having trouble with their terrible, greedy publisher...Warner Bros. No, seriously, a lot of reviews are talking about this.
Take all of that as you will.
Eggbertx View games View playlists Close
Well that's depressing, though I guess I can't really blame her. And while it was certainly flawed, I've never really felt that Revolutions was necessarily bad. Same for Reloaded. I may just wait for a bit and if the consensus is apparently that it's shit, I can pretend that it doesn't exist.

Gonna say Matrix 4 was earnest and the first matrix movie was a fluke... but yeah I wish I hadn't watched it, such a dull experience.
So the first half establishes a lot of "intentional" nostalgia callbacks to the originals and the later half tries to say a bunch of stuff about all that. It's just written so OBVIOUS and characters will say "It can't be!" "Character Name?" Like you can just see the script pop up on the screen, I don't think that parts intentional because even the trilogy had a better lines that didn't feel as telegraphed. The movie does have a soft spot for the series legacy but idk everything is so executed poorly it feels like a Grandma's Boy sequel than any sort of commentary. I did like seeing Carrie Anne Moss again with Keanu but it's a shame its all propped up by a horrible script and Neil Patrick Harris *shudder*
Though it really just made me want to watch the original again. Remember when movies bothered to have stakes? Idk maybe that new spiderman movie has em, wish I was in the mood for MCU stuff instead. If you've seen the trailer you seen the movie and I fell for the bait.

Sadly, Matrix 4 is probably still superior to "Santa's Boot Camp" a really badly written and acted film that's meant to be an anti bullying movie, but is so dreadful you'll want to look the other way.
The movie even messes up comedic timing by showing us a whoopee cushion just seconds before it's used. As a result the juvenile nature of the joke falls flat since it's deployment doesn't manage to catch you off guard.
And the movie tries to justify calling itself Santa's Boot Camp when Santa kidnaps the children in question and forces them to work for him in order to free up elves usually assigned to doing Santa's yard work to the Toy Factory. Apparently Santa justifies this on the grounds that bratty kids like them caused his elves to go on strike in the first place.
And we get to hear throughout the movie that Christmas is a Christian Holiday.
And I have to love how one of the kids does a voiced bit meant to represent his thoughts where he describes Santa as being psychic only for one of Santa's elves to complain about him calling Santa a psycho.
Jeez, I thought I had hit rock bottom for Christmas movies when I found a film about Santa's reindeers being a bunch of jocks that frequently get does pregnant and take no responsibility for looking after their children, but Santa being a kidnapper and slaver is definitely worse.

Against my better judgement I decided to go see Resurrections, and in retrospect, I really shouldn't have bothered. I didn't exactly have high expectations and hopes for it going in, but I still feel somehow disappointed.
I might just rewatch the original trilogy just to cleanse my palette.

I finally watched Terminator: Genisys yesterday. It was pretty awful, but it wasn't as bad as I was expecting. Holy shit, who thought casting Jai Courtney as Kyle Reese was a good idea?
I washed the taste out of my mouth by watching Tank Girl. I love it!

Movies wise? I love to re-watch Friday every now and again. It's like the perfect movie to me, a flawed protagonist(how do you get fired on your day off?), goofy sidekick, a threatening villain, plus all the side characters blend so well. Best Movie for a rewatch.
Finally finished the Big Short, I don't get the hype but I did learn a lot. I have a interest in the "Don't Look Up" netflix movie but if it's just like The Big Short I can wait.

In January I saw 28 movies, some were rewatches of old classics I hadn't seen in a while (Like Don’t Be a Menace to South Central While Drinking Your Juice in the Hood), some were classics I for some reason had never seen (like Das Boot and The Great Dictator)
And some were movies new to me that I will happily recommend people see. Like Drop Dead Gorgeous (A complete surprise I had never heard of), Barb and Star go to Vista Del Mar (this one got on many 2021 lists and it's really hilarious), Der Hauptmann and Ikitie (these last two are more of the depressing historical kind of movie that I tend to enjoy)
EDIT: I want to say that personally 28 movies in a month is insane and probably a new record. And also a record I'm unlikely to break any time soon.

Went to the cinema to see Belle and Sing a bit of Harmony over the last few weeks.
There's a couple of films coming up which I'd like to see too, but with Covid, I need to toss up if it's worth the risk or or not. Depends on the local danger levels.

The political bromance that was supposed to blossom between Justin Trudeau and Joe Biden has so far been a bust.
November 3, 2020
When Americans turfed Donald Trump in last November’s presidential election and sent Biden to the White House, you could almost hear a collective sigh of relief across Canada. A dark, dangerous cloud that had hovered over this country for four years had been blown away. With two progressive, seemingly compatible leaders at the helm of the North American neighbours a new era of amiable bilateral relations seemed guaranteed.
But that hasn’t come to pass. And so Prime Minister Trudeau will have his work cut out for him when he heads to Washington for Thursday’s summit with President Biden and Mexican President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador.
Despite all his friendly smiles, Biden has yet to prove he’s a real friend to this country. Relations are strained and he’s making them worse. There’s an infrastructure bill packed with Buy American provisions that could bar Canadian businesses from bidding on billions of dollars worth of projects in the U.S. Biden loves it.
July 22, 2021
Another bill would offer huge incentives for American consumers to purchase made-in-the-U.S. electric vehicles instead of buying Canadian-manufactured models. Biden is all for it. If Congress passes the bill, car makers would obviously be more inclined to invest in American electric vehicle plants than Canadian ones. Then what will happen to all those dreams of a bright new Canadian electric-vehicle sector?
No wonder Flavio Volpe, president of Canada’s Automotive Parts Manufacturers’ Association, says the proposed incentives are “a bigger threat than anything pointed at us by Donald Trump” — including all the tariffs he imposed and the disruptive free-trade battle he engineered.
Meanwhile, the State of Michigan is still trying to shut down Enbridge’s Line 5 pipeline which transports vital supplies of Western Canadian petroleum to Ontario and Quebec. If this threat to Canada has caught Biden’s eye, he’s done nothing about it. And if the list of bilateral sore-points isn’t long enough already, the American government moved this spring to double tariffs on Canadian lumber.
April 30, 2021
Clearly American protectionism has again reared its ugly head. And this despite the years of struggles during the Trump era to reach the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement which, by the way, does not permit those American electric-vehicle incentives.
It should be a given that Trudeau will raise these issues with Biden this week. But the president will be more preoccupied with pressures coming from within his own deeply divided country. After just 10 months in office, his approval ratings have plummeted. The control his Democrats have over Congress is precarious and could be lost after next year’s mid-term elections. And those Buy American incentives are widely popular south of the border with progressive Democrats, unions, consumers and, when it comes to electric vehicles, environmentalists.
February 23, 2021
Trudeau will be swimming upstream against powerful currents to alter these trends. He does, however, have leverage. With an increasingly assertive China responsible for Biden’s biggest international headache, Trudeau should remind him Canada and Mexico can help build a “Fortress North America” as an economic and political counterweight to that rising superpower. With Canadian and Mexican co-operation, Biden could also have a better chance of successfully fighting climate change, which would thrill much of his voter base.
Beyond these measures, Trudeau should adopt a strategy that worked with Trump: start sending his federal cabinet ministers and Canadian business leaders to meet with and lobby their American counterparts.
Considering all the differences between them, it may be too much to hope for another “Three Amigos Summit” this week. We’d settle for a co-operative, congenial neighbourly get-together. (Hamilton Spectator Editorial)

A wonderful serenity has taken possession of my entire soul, like these sweet mornings of spring which I enjoy with my whole heart. I am alone, and feel the charm of existence in this spot, which was created
For the bliss of souls like mine. I am so happy, my dear friend, so absorbed in the exquisite sense of mere tranquil existence, that I neglect my talents. I should be incapable of drawing a single stroke at the present moment; and yet I feel that I never was a greater artist than now. When, while the lovely valley teems with vapour around me, and the meridian sun strikes the upper surface of the impenetrable foliage of my trees, and but a few stray gleams steal into

Articles of a treaty concluded at Washington, on the 22nd day of June, 1852, between Kenton Harper, commissioner on the part of the United States, and Colonel Edmund Pickens, Benjamin S. Love, and Sampson Folsom, commissioners duly appointed for that purpose, by the Chickasaw tribe of Indians.
Agent to reside among the Chickasaws.
The Chickasaw tribe of Indians acknowledge themselves to be under the guardianship of the United States, and as a means of securing the protection guaranteed to them by former treaties, it is agreed that an Agent of the United States shall continue to reside among them.
Sale of Chickasaw lands.
Burial ground in Pontotoc.
That the expenses attending the sale of the land ceded by the Chickasaws to the United States, under the treaty of 1832, having, for some time past, exceeded the receipts, it is agreed that the remnant of the lands so ceded and yet unsold, shall be disposed of as soon as practicable, under the direction of the President of the United States in such manner and in such quantities, as, in his judgment, shall be least expensive to the Chickasaws, and most conducive to their benefit: Provided, That a tract of land, including the grave-yard near the town of Pontotoc, where many of the Chickasaws and their white friends are buried, and not exceeding four acres in quantity, shall be, and is hereby set apart and conveyed to the said town of Pontotoc to be held sacred for the purposes of a public burial-ground forever.
Settlement of title of Chickasaws to a tract in Tennessee.
It is hereby agreed that the question of the right of the Chickasaws so long contended for by them, to a reservation of four miles square on the River Sandy, in the State of Tennessee, and particularly described in the 4th article of the treaty concluded at Oldtown, on the 19th day of October, 1818, shall be submitted to the Secretary of the Interior who shall decide, what amount, if any thing, shall be paid to the Chickasaws for said reservation: Provided, however, That the amount so to be paid shall not exceed one dollar and twenty-five cents per acre.
Settlement of Chickasaw claims.
The Chickasaws allege that in the management and disbursement of their funds by the government, they have been subjected to losses and expenses which properly should be borne by the United States. With the view, therefore, of doing full justice in the premises, it is hereby agreed that there shall be, at as early a day as practicable, an account stated, under the direction of the Secretary of the Interior, exhibiting in detail all the moneys which, from time to time, have been placed in the Treasury to the credit of the Chickasaw nation, resulting from the treaties of 1832, and 1834, and all the disbursements made therefrom. And said account as stated, shall be submitted to the Chickasaws, who shall have the privilege, within a reasonable time, of filing exceptions thereto, and any exceptions so filed shall be referred to the Secretary of the Interior, who shall adjudicate the same according to the principles of law and equity, and his decisions shall be final and conclusive on all concerned.
It is also alleged by the Chickasaws that there are numerous cases in which moneys held in trust by the United States for the benefit of orphans and incompetent Chickasaws, have been wrongfully paid out to persons having no right to receive the same. It is therefore further agreed, that all such cases shall be investigated by the Agent of the United States under the direction of the Secretary of the Interior. And if it shall appear to the satisfaction of said Secretary, that any of the orphans and incompetents have been defrauded by such wrongful payments, the amount thus misapplied shall be accounted for by the United States, as if no such payment had been made: Provided, That the provisions of this article shall not be so construed as to impose any obligations on the United States to reimburse any expenditures heretofore made in conformity with the stipulations contained in the treaties of 1832 and 1834: And provided further, That the United States shall not be liable to repay moneys held in trust for the benefit of orphans and incompetent Chickasaws, in any case in which payment of such moneys has been made upon the recommendation or certificate of the persons appointed for that purpose in the Fourth Article of the Treaty of 1834, or of their successors, and in other respects in conformity with the provisions of that article: And provided further,That the United States shall not be held responsible for any reservation of land or of any sale, lease, or other disposition of the same, made, sold, leased, or otherwise disposed of, in conformity with the several provisions of said treaties of 1832 and 1834.
Chickasaw fund to be held in trust.
The Chickasaws are desirous that the whole amount of their national fund shall remain with the United States, in trust for the benefit of their people, and that the same shall on no account be diminished. It is, therefore, agreed that the United States shall continue to hold said fund, in trust as aforesaid, and shall constantly keep the same invested in safe and profitable stocks, the interest upon which shall be annually paid to the Chickasaw nation: Provided, That so much of said funds as the Chickasaws may require for the purpose of enabling them to effect the permanent settlement of their tribe as contemplated by the treaty of 1834, shall be subject to the control of their General Council.
The powers and duties conferred on certain persons particularly mentioned in the 4th article of the treaty of 1834, and their successors in office, shall hereafter be vested in and performed by the General Council of the Chickasaws, or such officers as may be by said council appointed for that purpose; and no certificate or deed given or executed by the persons aforesaid, from which the approval of the President of the United States has once been withheld, shall be hereafter approved unless the same shall first receive the sanction of the Chickasaw Council, or the officers appointed as aforesaid, and of the agent of the United States for said Chickasaw nation.
Payment of the Chickasaw funds restricted.
No claim or account shall hereafter be paid by the Government of the United States out of the Chickasaw fund; unless the same shall have first been considered and allowed by the Chickasaw General Council: Provided, however, That this clause shall not effect payment upon claims existing contracts made by authority of the Chickasaw General Council, or interfere with the due administration of the acts of Congress regulating trade and intercourse with the Indian tribes.
It is further agreed, that regular semiannual accounts of the receipts and disbursements of the Chickasaw fund shall be furnished the Chickasaw Council by the Government of the United States.
Expenses of the treaty.
The sum of fifteen hundred dollars shall be paid the Chickasaw nation, in full of expenses incurred by their commissioners in negotiating this treaty.
Payments: to whom to be made.
And it is further stipulated, That in no case hereafter, shall any money due or to be paid under this treaty or any former treaty between the same contracting parties be paid to any agent or attorney; but shall in all cases be paid directly to the party or parties primarily entitled thereto.
In witness whereof the contracting parties have hereto set their hands and seals, the day and year above written.

Harold Kline is an albino—an outcast. Folks stare and taunt, calling him Ghost Boy. It’s been that way for all of his 14 years. So when the circus comes to town, Harold runs off to join it.
Full of colorful performers, the circus seems like the answer to Harold’s loneliness. He’s eager to meet the Cannibal King, a sideshow attraction who’s an albino, too. He’s touched that Princess Minikin and the Fossil Man, two other sideshow curiosities, embrace him like a son. He’s in love with Flip, the pretty and beguiling horse trainer, and awed by the all-knowing Gypsy Magda. Most of all, Harold is proud of training the elephants, and of earning respect and a sense of normalcy. Even at the circus, though, two groups exist—the freaks, and everyone else. Harold straddles both groups. But fitting in comes at a price, and Harold must recognize the truth beneath what seems apparent before he can find a place to call home.

It was the hottest day of the year. Only the Ghost was out in the sun, only the Ghost and his dog. They shuffled down Liberty's main street with puffs of dust swirling at their feet, as though the earth was so hot that it smoldered.
It wasn't yet noon, and already a hundred degrees. But the Ghost wore his helmet of leather and fur, a pilot's helmet from a war that was two years over. It touched his eyebrows and covered his ears; the straps dangled and swayed at his neck.
He was a thin boy, white as chalk, a plaster boy dressed in baggy clothes. He wore little round spectacles with black lenses that looked like painted coins on his eyes. And he stared through them at a world that was always blurred, that sometimes jittered across the darkened glass. From the soles of his feet to the top of his head, his skin was like rich white chocolate, without a freckle anywhere. Even his eyes were such a pale blue that they were almost clear, like raindrops or quivering dew.
He glanced up for only a moment. Already there was a scrawl of smoke to the west, creeping across the prairie. But the Ghost didn't hurry; he never did. He hadn't missed a single train in more than a hundred Saturdays.
He turned the corner at the drugstore, his honey-colored dog behind him. They went down to the railway tracks and the little station that once had been a sparkling red but now was measled by the sun. At three minutes to noon he sat on the bench on the empty platform, and the dog crawled into the shadows below it.
The Ghost put down his stick and his jar, then dabbed at the sweat that trickled from the rim of his helmet. The top of it was black with sweat, in a circle like a skullcap.
The scrawl of smoke came closer. It turned to creamy puffs. The train whistled at Batsford's field, where it started around the long bend toward Liberty and on to the Rattlesnake. The Ghost lifted his head, and his thin pale lips were set in a line that was neither a frown nor a smile.
"It's going to stop," he told his dog. "You bet it will."
Huge and black, pistons hissing steam, the engine came leaning into the curve. It pulled a mail car and a single coach in a breathy thunder, a shriek of wheels. It rattled the windows in the clapboard station, shedding dust from the planks. The bench jiggled on metal legs.
"I know it's going to stop," said the Ghost.
But it didn't. The train roared past him in a blast of steam, in a hot whirl of wind that lashed the helmet straps against his cheeks. And on this Saturday in July, as he had every other Saturday that he could possibly remember, Harold the Ghost blinked down the track and sighed the saddest little breath that anyone might ever hear. Then he picked up his stick and his jar and struck off for the Rattlesnake River.
The stick was his fishing pole, and he carried it over his shoulder. A string looped down behind him, with a wooden bobber swinging at his knees. The old dog came out from the shade and followed him so closely that the bobber whacked her head with a hollow little thunk. But the dog didn't seem to mind; she would put up with anything to be near her master.
They climbed back to Main Street and trudged to the east, past false-fronted buildings coated with dust. The windows were blackboards for children's graffiti, covered with Kilroy faces and crooked hearts scribbled with names: Bobby Loves Betty; Betty Loves George; No One Loves Harold. And across the wide front window of May's Cafe was a poem in slanting lines:
He's ugly and stupid He's dumb as a post He's a freak and a geek He's Harold the Ghost.
In the shade below the window sat a woman on a chair with spindly legs, beside a half-blind old man with spindly legs sitting in a rocker. Harold glanced at them and heard the woman's voice from clear across the street. "There he goes," she said. "I never seen a sadder sight."
He couldn't hear the old man's question, only the woman's answer. "Why, that poor albino boy."
The man mumbled; she clucked like a goose. "Land's sakes! He's going to the river, of course. Down where the Baptists go. Where they dunk themselves in the swimming hole."
His head down, his boots scuffing, Harold passed from the town to the prairie. The buildings shrank behind him until they were just a brown-and-silver heap. And in the huge flatness of the land he was a speck of a boy with a speck of a dog behind him. He walked so slowly that a tumbleweed overtook him, though the day was nearly calm. In an hour he'd reached the Rattlesnake.
In truth it was no more of a river than Liberty was a city. The Rattlesnake didn't flow across the prairie; it crawled. It went like an ancient dog on a winding path, keeping to the shade when it could. But it was the only river that Harold Kline had ever seen, and he thought it rather grand. He splashed his way along the stream, a quarter mile down the river, until he reached his favorite spot, where the banks were smooth and grassy. Then he sat, and the dog lay beside him. He put a worm on his hook and cast out the bobber. It plunged in, popped out, tilted and straightened, like a little diver who'd found the river too cold. A pair of water striders dashed over to have a look at it, and dashed away again.
The dog was asleep in an instant. She hadn't run more than a yard in more than a year, but she dreamed about running now, her legs twitching.
"Where are you off to?" asked Harold the Ghost. His voice was soft as smoke. "You're off to Oregon, I bet. You're running through the forests, aren't you? You're running where it's cool and shady, you poor old thing." He looked up at the sun, a hot white smudge in his glasses.
The dog went everywhere Harold did. It seemed only natural to him that she would dream of the places he dreamed about.

Social Distancing, Quarantine and the Role of Technology in Keeping Food Services Running
Posted by OrderTron on April 15, 2020 | Featured
In a sense, it’s not the Covid-19 itself that’s threatening to uproot the normalcy of everyday life—rather it’s the social distancing and quarantine measures that have done it. When you look at the Coronavirus infections in Australia, we’re far better off and much more successful with containment with most other countries. The Australian government is being applauded for the efforts in containing the virus, in flattening the curve and reducing the infection rates, thankfully. Much of this success in containing the virus can be credited to the social distancing and quarantine measures that were implemented from the moment the news about the Coronavirus in China hit mainstream media. Since then, we’ve had increasingly stringent controls on social gatherings and intermingling of people—which has eroded away the foundations of the commercial sector—the hospitality industry most of all.
There can be no hospitality business if people aren’t coming out that a business can be hospitable to. Restaurants, take away food services and hotels are all in lockdown because it’s too risky to allow them to function—they work fundamentally by serving huge crowds at the same time. As it stands, nearly 78% of all businesses working in the food industry had to make changes to their workforce. The same reports also indicate that 43% of all businesses in the sector had to lay off the staff and took major hits to revenues/profits during this time. None of this is surprising really, because there was nothing else to expect—people can’t go out and there is no one to serve.
Interestingly enough, this is a great time for food delivery businesses as online food order frequencies surged during the lockdown. This is also a fairly understandable shift in dynamics—after all, if people can’t go out to eat—they can at least order in and it’s turned out to be quite lucrative for food delivery services. There are complications on that front also because food delivery platforms are now charging higher for their services, exploiting the monopoly they’ve found themselves holding suddenly because of the quarantine measures. Uber Eats was called out by the Franchise Council of Australia recently because of its exploitative pricing strategies and was urged to slash its prices to minimise the financial pressures on customers/business owners.
Despite the problems with existing food delivery platforms, there are few options left for restaurant owners besides moving to something like Uber Eats. If you, as a restaurant owner, aren’t delivering food—you’re missing out because the demand for food is still quite high despite the pandemic. People are still ordering in and a lot of new restaurants are trying to shift their business models from dine-in to deliveries—much to their financial success. Ultimately, things aren’t looking too bad even if food delivery platforms are overcharging for their services.
Lessons to Take Away from this Dynamic
From what we can tell, even with a lockdown in place, the food business is thriving and businesses are making a lot of money even if they have to lay people off. Much of this can be put down to the increasing implementation of technology in the food industry and the availability of online food delivery platforms. Restaurants aren’t the only businesses shifting to these new business models—supermarkets, grocery stores and other food retailers are all bringing the food to people instead of people coming to them. This is the new norm and dynamic of the food industry in Australia—and it’s not too bad if you know how to make the most of the situation.
The solution here, as with all business problems, is to figure out a way to maximise your profit margins. Fundamentally, there are two basic ways to do it—you either reduce your costs or increase your revenues. Thankfully, tech innovation has given all business owners in the retail food industry a chance to do both. Given the fact that the chokehold at the final stage of the value chain will hold up all other intermediary food service points—technology allows us to continue making sales and thus sustain production across all points of the chain. Let’s take a look at how that can happen:
1. The Role of Food Delivery Platforms
There are a lot of examples in Australia right now of businesses using online food delivery platforms to help generate greater revenues. Now that more people are shifting to food delivery—before the epidemic 60% of all Australians preferred ordering through a food delivery platform—this number has quite likely increased by now. Forming associations with a platform like Uber Eats can be immensely beneficial for business owners because it’s one of the best user-business interfaces in the country right now.
Working with Deliveroo or Uber Eats can also help you cut down the costs of maintaining a delivery fleet. While Uber Eats and Deliveroo are charging a fair bit of money for their services, it’s possible that the cost cuts and the higher revenues might offset the service charges. You won’t have to hire more people; you can afford to keep around the essential staff and continue generating greater attention from clients looking for new options on these platforms.
Recently, Dominos announced that online deliveries had sky-rocketed even before the lockdown was initiated. They identified a trend in consumer behaviours, that they were calling “cocooning” where customers wanted to stay at home and eat with their families. This spike in the number of online deliveries has actually reversed the employment trends in the company, where Dominos is considering hiring more people to meet demand.
While Dominos already had a well-established online ordering platform, businesses who’ve shifted to online orders are reporting higher revenues as well. Many businesses report that they have been far more successful working with their customised online ordering platforms, because they give them greater control over how the customer views them. As more businesses move into places like Uber Eats, having a tailored online order system could do wonders to preserve your consumer base and perhaps increase it as well.
This particular consideration applies to restaurants, as much as it applies to places like supermarkets. As you change your business models, you’ll likely encounter new obstacles where an uncertain supply chain might require you to stock up to avoid production hold-ups as the existing situation evolves. As we transform our business models to serve these new consumption behaviours, we will likely observe different ordering patterns, seasonal effects, and possible variations at both the supplier and the consumer end.
This means that businesses need to ensure that their supply chains and inventories are optimised to meet the challenges that will very likely surface very soon. We’ve already observed that people began panic buying when the pandemic surfaced, leading to shortages in the market—a shortage that impacted all the stakeholders in the industry. In these uncertain times, it’s probably best to ensure that you devise flexible inventory management processes and possibly automate your inventories to reduce lags in your supply chain.
Concluding Remarks
As time goes on, it will become easier for us to assess what these new consumer dynamics mean for businesses in the food industry. Until such a time comes when vaccines for the Covid-19 roll out, there’s no guarantee for whether these lockdowns will continue. At this moment, all businesses need to look to the short run and capitalise on existing opportunities to respond to the demands of the market. This is only possible through constant monitoring and tweaking to existing organisational processes to meet the consumers head-on as they demand an increasing amount of flexibility from their service providers.
While trends seem to indicate that online food ordering services are the best ways for businesses to thrive, there’s no telling how long these trends will continue. Taking every day as it comes is perhaps the best piece of advice anyone can provide, especially given how the rest of the world has responded to the epidemic so far. The Australian food industry has done exceptionally well, whether we consider the international food traders or the domestic food industries. It’s entirely possible that we’re witnessing a change in the processes that characterise the functioning of the food industry.
One thing is for certain though—technology has only improved food service provision capabilities. In the absence of automated order management systems and online food delivery platforms, these gains were likely impossible to realise.

27 volunteers showed up on Saturday April 17 to tackle clean up and beautification at the Antioch Missionary Baptist Church on West First Street in Deming.
Volunteers arrived at 8:30am from El Paso, Las Cruces, Deming and Columbus. Pastor Reggie Price hosted groups and individuals from the Buffalo Soldiers Motorcycle Club, Luna County and youth community services.
“I’m impressed by the number of kids out here,” said County Commissioner Barbara Reedy. “They are such hard workers, kind and courteous. Everyone here is working hard. It’s a great community project.”
Teams caulked and painted interior and exterior walls, floors, doors and dragged pews out into the sunshine for a fresh coat of paint. They swept, washed and scrubbed. While volunteers labored at the front of the property, church members grilled up a thank you lunch towards the back.
Antioch Missionary Baptist Church is a small church with a big history. Founded in 1947, the church building goes back to WWI when it was part of Camp Cody. It then became part of the Deming Airfield in WWII. The church was established post-WWII during segregation as a separate church for black worshippers.
Back in the 60s, the church suffered significant fire damage. The current building consists of the rebuilt front section and original back section.
Pastor Price, originally from New York, has been with the church for 8 years after retiring from the Air Force. His last assignment was with Operation Jump Start as part of the border mission, which brought him to the southwest. “On behalf of the church, I’d like to say thank you to all who cam from far and near to help us revitalize our church. You are welcome any time at Antioch. God bless.”
Services are held Sundays at 10:30 and welcome all in the community. For more information check out their Facebook page.

Why? Because you need to know that much of “science” isn’t as “scientific” as you thought. It’s not science at all, but rather a tool for imposing a materialist worldview on all mankind. And that’s dangerous.
It brought me back to my college biology course, whose grand finale was the presentation of a vision of total control, by scientific planners, over every aspect of human life.
Someone asked, “But what about individual freedom and dignity?” To which the instructor answered, “Those are outmoded concepts that will have to be engineered out of the system.”
It’s only gotten worse since then, and this film is a powerful warning as to just how bad it is.
Expelled shows how the scientific establishment—with help from the media, the courts, and “educators”—tries to suppress all doubts about Darwinian evolution. Those who voice such doubts are punished: “expelled” from their positions, blacklisted, mocked, and universally excoriated as “religious fundamentalists” and “creationists,” dirty words in today’s intellectual parlance. You don’t have to espouse creationism, or promote Intelligent Design theory, to get the treatment. Even the mildest dissent can get you drummed out of the corps. A statement as tepid as “I don’t think Darwinian theory can account for everything that we observe in nature” is enough to get you banned.
These are not encyclopedia salesmen or barbers who are being held up as ignoramuses. They are scientists with Ph.D.’s in various fields. The film’s star and cowriter, Ben Stein, interviews them, and they tell their stories. Biologists, astronomers, engineers, medical doctors—they all tell the same story. Say one word critical of Darwinism, or even entertain the possibility that God is the origin of life, and you’re toast.
“I do claim that frank and open discussion of the data, and of the issues, is being suppressed,” Michael Crichton writes. “… Under the circumstances, any scientist who has doubts understands clearly that they will be wise to mute their expression.”[1]
Crichton was writing about “global warming,” but the same holds true for scientists who question Darwinian evolution.
It does seem strange that Darwin’s theory, now 150 years old, should be the only relic of 19th-century science immune to being superseded. We know infinitely more today than Darwin ever suspected about cellular morphology, biochemistry, genetics and DNA, and more. But Darwinists cling bitterly to their theory no matter what else is discovered.
Stein interviews many defenders of Darwinism, including a one-on-one session with Richard Dawkins, the Goliath of today’s militant atheism. Their attitude is anything but “scientific.” They are angry, scornful, dismissive, and, yes, bitter. They are mortally offended that anyone should disagree with them, or even question them. Anyone who does so is an “idiot,” no matter how many Ph.D.’s he might happen to have.
Dawkins, who derides Christians and says atheists should be called “brights” because they’re so much smarter than religious people, has been heard to complain that Ben Stein duped him, and that he never would have granted the interview if he’d known Stein was “a creationist front.” If he’s so bright, why was he so easily bamboozled?
Stein plays Dawkins like a cello, easily getting Mr. Bright to admit to the possibility that space aliens—themselves the product of materialistic, Darwinian evolution—might have “intelligently designed” life on Earth. Unable to answer the question, “How did life begin?” Dawkins can only take refuge in fairy tales: in his case, the kind of poppycock that can be heard at any UFO convention. But nobody’s calling those people “bright.”
At the heart of Expelled is a contention that Darwinism was a critical ingredient in the worst evils of the 20th century, Nazism and communism. Stein takes us on a visit to Hadamar, a mental hospital in Germany where doctors and nurses systematically murdered thousands of “unfit” individuals in the name of eugenics—the “science” of controlling the future evolution of the human race by weeding out “inferior” individuals and races.
Darwinists scream bloody murder if you blame them for the atrocities of the Third Reich. But there is a reason why they should be blamed, which R. J. Rushdoony explains in The Mythology of Science.[2]
“For all forms of evolutionary thinking, God is irrelevant. If He exists, He has nothing essential to do with a world which has evolved out of its own inner forces and is thus a law unto itself” (p. 27).
“[B]ecause there is no God, there is no ultimately true law, no absolute concept of right and wrong. No God means no law, and no law means that nothing is a crime, and hence all acts are equally valid in terms of morality …” (p. 28).
“[E]very experiment, to be valid, requires total control of all factors. Hence, the scientific society must be fully totalitarian, otherwise it will not work, nor will it be scientific … The government and providence of God are replaced by the government and providence of man, and the divine predestination gives way to predestination by scientific planners” (p. 30).
We have been led to the heart of the matter. The Darwinists Ben Stein talks to all admit proudly to being atheists, and most of them say their studies in evolution brought them there. They emphatically deny not only God, but also free will and meaning itself.
If there is no meaning in the universe, no God to hand down immutable moral laws, by what standard can any atheist condemn the goings-on at Hadamar? Why not gas the feeble-minded? If God does not define morality, man must. And the man who gets to make his definition stick is the man with the gun.
Writing about eugenics, Crichton says, “All in all, the research, legislation, and molding of public opinion surrounding the theory went on for almost half a century. Those who opposed the theory were shouted down and called reactionary, blind to reality, or just plain ignorant. But in hindsight, what is surprising is that so few people objected.”[3]
Maybe they were afraid of being expelled.
But we aren’t gassing the feeble-minded today. That was just an aberration, wasn’t it?
All right, go ahead—find a Darwinist who doesn’t support unlimited abortion “rights,” euthanasia, the “right” to suicide, or the legitimization of sodomy. Says the Bible, “There is a way which seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death” (Prov. 14:12). These people are in love with death and with “lifestyle choices” that lead to early death. The ultimate pipe dream of this perverse worldview is the total extinction of the human race, as rhapsodized over in a recent bestseller, The World Without Us.[4] Or think back to 2006, when Dr. Eric Pianka of the University of Texas publicly wished for 90 percent of humanity to be killed off by a plague—and received a standing ovation for it.[5] What percentage of his audience, do you suppose, was Darwinist?
Atheists can squirm on the point of this needle all they like, but they can’t get off.
The scientific purge revealed by Expelled is aimed mostly at scientists who are suspected of harboring notions of “Intelligent Design.” Darwinists routinely equate Intelligent Design with Biblical creationism. They do this because they’re too close-minded to know or care about the difference; besides, branding ID as “religion” helps them to win lawsuits.
However, they’re wrong.
Intelligent Design theory finds that the incredible complexities of nature point to … well, an intelligent design. Living cells, the solar system, the human eye—it’s all far too complex to have “evolved” by blind chance and “natural selection.” The evidence inevitably leads one to postulate an intelligent designer.
ID, therefore, is an inductive or empirical approach to God. Its starting point is the natural world, “the evidence” we can observe with our senses and our instruments. From this basis, ID theorists reason upward.
It is the exact opposite of our position as Biblical creationists. Our reason is deductive, not inductive. We presuppose the existence of God as revealed to us in Scripture, and with God as our starting point, we reason downward, not upward.
The problem with ID is, simply, that it will not quite carry you all the way to God. You never run out of “steps” to interpose between creation and creator. That’s why Dawkins can grant the possibility of space aliens intelligently designing life on Earth: it leaves him free to presuppose a totally materialistic origin for the aliens.
Nevertheless, the ID movement has helped make two valuable contributions.
First, ID scientists have helped to expose the inadequacies and fallacies of Darwinism. ID is a stone in Darwinism’s shoe, and Darwinism limps because of it. Judge ID’s effectiveness by the intensity of the anger, scorn, and vindictiveness it has aroused among the scientific establishment. If ID were not pooping the Darwinists’ party, Darwinists would not be persecuting its proponents and Expelled would not have been made. (Darwinists despise Young Earth Creationists, too; but because ID claims to be “science,” and many of his practitioners hold doctorates in various sciences, there is an element of competition involved.)
Second, there are individuals—former atheist Lee Strobel, for instance—whose unbelief has been shaken by the ID movement, and some who have moved beyond ID to full belief in God. Who knows what God will use as a trigger to call a secular gentile to the faith? So if ID jars some out of their Darwinist delusion, it has accomplished something positive.
But we aren’t urging you to see Expelled because we want you to adopt ID and stop there. Nor are we happy with the way some of Stein’s interviewees protest that “ID is not religion” and its hypothetical “intelligent designer” not necessarily God. Either they are just being coy, or else they’re stuck halfway to God and can’t move forward.
Who is the designer, if not God? To our friends in the ID movement, we say, Complete your journey! Boldly proclaim belief in God as the designer and creator of all things.
If you don’t, you might someday find yourselves lined up with Richard Dawkins and his very bright space aliens.
Expelled is not great cinematic art, but it’s good enough to do the job, and it deserves the support of a Christian audience. The sequence featuring Hadamar is especially powerful: those images may haunt you for a while. The thought of dying in a place like that, murdered by your own doctors …
The film’s overall message is entirely convincing. If Darwinism were not a sham, if it were not a scientific fig leaf for a perverse and satanic view of life (whose leading adherents, many of them, would dethrone God and install themselves in His place), the Darwinists would not be cracking down so hard on doubters. They would not be clinging to a 150-year-old scientific relic, cobwebs and all, whose only contribution to history has been to provide a pseudoscientific rationale for tyranny and selfishness.
If Darwin had never existed, Nazis and communists would have had to invent him—and his theory.
[1] Michael Crichton, State of Fear, “Why Politicized Science is Dangerous,” Appendix I, (New York: HarperCollins, 2004), 579. This novel, exposing “global warming” as a scientific hoax, makes points that apply equally to Darwinism. The appendix is especially telling.

Works as a memory enhancer, enhancing concentration and coordination of motions, removing inflammation and frequent infections. It improves the conduction of stimuli in the course of autoimmune diseases (multiple sclerosis, amyotrophic sclerosis).

It deserves knowing that supplements of this type is primarily utilized by individuals to whom basic treatment does not bring relief in health problem. The synergistic (enhancing) action of CBD and THC relative to each other is utilized here. When used independently, both cannabinoids can do much more together than.

Possibly it is actually as a result of the costs that are definitely hostile for some travelers. The property of Nessi and also males in kilts is absolutely worth a longer or even brief quest. Maybe it is excellent to deal with it now, when the value of the pound is dropping, and also thereby our company will pay out a lot less for a holiday in Scotland? Glen Affric in very early springtime Why is it worth it? Scotland is largely a splendid yard in the north of the nation. Highlands– mountains covered with turf and also louises, deep lochs (lakes), a remarkable shore collection, glen (charming valleys), and also most of all, hardly ever discovered in Europe (specifically in Scotland!) wilderness, where our company will definitely certainly not see a singular home. Space, area and room again! Wild nature, a great quantity of vegetations, birds and various other pets await nature lovers. In Scotland, I have actually currently managed to watch seals, dolphins and even deer. Scotland is actually additionally a traditionally appealing land (who viewed Brave Heart?), Where you may check out stunning rock castles (Edinburgh, Stirling, Linlithgow, Eilean Donan). The capital itself, the impressive Edinburgh, additionally ought to have interest, especially during the course of the summer months festivals. nation Scotland, scottish Scotland, application Scotland, conservative Scotland, details Scotland, scotland Scotland, our company Scotland, edinburgh Scotland, little one Scotland, creed Scotland, map Scotland, iona Scotland, menu Scotland, trip Scotland, information Scotland, past history Scotland, automobile Scotland, ship Scotland, uk Scotland, learn Scotland, celtic Scotland, glasgow Scotland, shetland Scotland, culture Scotland, tay Scotland, bus Scotland, headlines Scotland, education and learning Scotland, little bit Scotland, navigation Scotland, cookie Scotland, covid Scotland, sporting activity Scotland, access Scotland, videos Scotland, highland activities Scotland, community Scotland, golf Scotland, scots Scotland, meals Scotland, whisky Scotland, spending plan Scotland, visitscotland Scotland, museum Scotland, bulletin Scotland, arbroath Scotland, heck Scotland, street Scotland, distilleries Scotland, street andrews Scotland, drink Scotland, check out scotland Scotland, europe Scotland, castles Scotland, potential Scotland, experience Scotland, weblog Scotland, dundee Scotland, steering Scotland, sports Scotland, covid-Scotland9 Scotland, transportation Scotland. Edinburgh – Some suggestions for visiting Scotland Trip in Scotland should definitely start with its capital. Edinburgh is an attractive medieval a city with distinctive rock properties. Coming from the main street, the so-called The Royal Mile connecting the former imperial palace along with the Queen’s summer season royal residence (Palace of Holyroodhouse) escapes a network of fascinating tiny roads (the alleged shut), producing a labyrinth through which it is actually actually worth getting lost. It takes around pair of times to visit Edinburgh, however you can extend this moment up to four. In the case of a brief see to Scotland, you can additionally confine on your own to Edinburgh just, spending eventually on a big salami through bus in the Scottish plateaus (just about every traveling company in the capital offers it). By doing this, a minimum of for an instant our team will experience the ambience of a true land of moistures. An even far better concept is to lease a cars and truck for 1 day and also take place an independent travel (the course and attribute of the organized excursions perform certainly not necessarily suit everyone). Such a self-guided trip will perhaps take our company a minimum of 10 hrs. Arran is contacted Scotland in mini. Loch Lomond is one of Scotland’s pair of nationwide playgrounds, a wonderful lake bordered by rainforests as well as mountains. On the method, you can easily likewise go to Stirling Castle. nation Scotland, scottish Scotland, application Scotland, conservative Scotland, information Scotland, scotland Scotland, us Scotland, edinburgh Scotland, kid Scotland, creed Scotland, map Scotland, iona Scotland, menu Scotland, travel Scotland, information Scotland, record Scotland, auto Scotland, ship Scotland, uk Scotland, learn Scotland, celtic Scotland, glasgow Scotland, shetland Scotland, society Scotland, tay Scotland, bus Scotland, information Scotland, education and learning Scotland, little Scotland, navigating Scotland, biscuit Scotland, covid Scotland, sport Scotland, accessibility Scotland, online videos Scotland, highland video games Scotland, neighborhood Scotland, golf Scotland, scots Scotland, meals Scotland, whisky Scotland, spending plan Scotland, visitscotland Scotland, gallery Scotland, e-newsletter Scotland, arbroath Scotland, heck Scotland, roadway Scotland, distilleries Scotland, st andrews Scotland, beverage Scotland, see scotland Scotland, europe Scotland, castles Scotland, potential Scotland, experience Scotland, weblog Scotland, dundee Scotland, driving Scotland, sporting activities Scotland, covid-Scotland9 Scotland, transportation Scotland. Scotland, like the entire of Great Britain, is not one of the least expensive destinations. In add-on, in Scotland the tent can easily be set up essentially anywhere, therefore travelers can easily likewise rest in the crazy. The very most renowned as well as one of the most gorgeous treking trails in Europe is actually the supposed West Highland Way. Longer journey? Just how approximately north along the west shore and also at that point back to the quieter, albeit less incredible east? Many travelers in Glasgow, takes a learn to Mallaig (sometimes going to Glencoe or Fort William heading) after that gos to Isle of Skye (the absolute most wonderful of the Scottish isles), then scalp along the shore towards Ullapool, as far as Durness, en route back going to Inverness, Fort Augustus (Loch Ness), Aberdeen and Cairngorms National Park, and also lastly Street Andrews. Is it possible by trains and also buses? Naturally it is possible, however you will definitely miss a lot, so it is actually far better to rent an auto for a minimum of portion of the trip. As well as don’t be actually tricked due to the visitor snare of Loch Ness– in reality, there are a lot of considerably more beautiful locations throughout Scotland nation Scotland, scottish Scotland, application Scotland, tory Scotland, info Scotland, scotland Scotland, our company Scotland, edinburgh Scotland, kid Scotland, cult Scotland, chart Scotland, iona Scotland, food selection Scotland, trip Scotland, data Scotland, background Scotland, auto Scotland, ship Scotland, uk Scotland, train Scotland, celtic Scotland, glasgow Scotland, shetland Scotland, culture Scotland, tay Scotland, bus Scotland, headlines Scotland, education and learning Scotland, bit Scotland, navigating Scotland, cookie Scotland, covid Scotland, sport Scotland, accessibility Scotland, video clips Scotland, highland activities Scotland, area Scotland, golf Scotland, scots Scotland, food Scotland, whisky Scotland, budget plan Scotland, visitscotland Scotland, gallery Scotland, e-newsletter Scotland, arbroath Scotland, heck Scotland, roadway Scotland, distilleries Scotland, st andrews Scotland, alcoholic beverage Scotland, see scotland Scotland, europe Scotland, castles Scotland, potential Scotland, encounter Scotland, blog post Scotland, dundee Scotland, driving Scotland, sports Scotland, transport Scotland Glenelg I keep in mind seeing Scotland for the initial time at the conclusion of April. It was actually actually spring in Scotland, the sun was actually warming up, while in Scotland it was actually still winter season all over. The Highlands were actually still dealt with in snow in lots of areas, and also in Edinburgh it was piercingly storm. When taking a trip in Scotland, first of all excellent, water resistant, sports footwear. Will certainly also come in useful, often it is likewise worth adding a slim scarf, a sports hat and sporting activities gloves to the bag (springtime as well as autumn). In wintertime, I advise avoiding Scotland from a distance. In the scenario of a low-budget travel, sleep in a tent or even stay merely in hostels (cost concerning PLN 80 every night)., Whiskey, visit at the very least one distillery as well as instruction fish and also potato chips along with vinegar at minimum when. I really hope that through this message I motivated my friends (:-RRB-) however likewise complete strangers to journey to Scotland. It is actually really worth a hundred opportunities!

Arran is called Scotland in baby. Scotland, like the whole of Great Britain, is actually not one of the most inexpensive places. It was actually spring in Scotland, the sunshine was heating up, while in Scotland it was actually still winter season all over.

From the major street, the alleged The Royal Mile attaching the previous royal castle with the Queen’s summer season palace (Palace of Holyroodhouse) runs a network of intriguing little roads (the alleged close), producing a puzzle in which it is really worth receiving shed. It takes about two days to see Edinburgh, yet you can stretch this opportunity around four. In the instance of a short visit to Scotland, you can additionally restrict your own self to Edinburgh only, spending eventually on a round excursion by bus in the Scottish mountainous (almost every travel bureau in the capital delivers it). This way, at minimum momentarily our team will certainly really feel the setting of a real property of mists. An even better tip is actually to lease a car for someday and happen an independent journey (the system and also attribute of the organized tours perform certainly not necessarily suit everyone). Such a self-guided scenic tour will probably take our team a minimum of 10 hours. Arran is actually phoned Scotland in miniature.

What is crucial in this scenario is universal accessibility to well-maintained water– we can find mountain rivers, streams as well as waterfalls practically all over. The best well-known as well as some of the best attractive exploring routes in Europe is actually the alleged West Highland Way. Because of the incredible viewpoints, I enthusiastically suggest Longer travel? Just how around north along the west coast and after that back to the quieter, albeit much less spectacular east? Numerous tourists in Glasgow, takes a learn to Mallaig (sometimes going to Glencoe or even Fort William on the way) after that gos to Isle of Skye (the absolute most attractive of the Scottish islands), then scalp along the shoreline in the direction of Ullapool, regarding Durness, on the technique back checking out Inverness, Fort Augustus (Loch Ness), Aberdeen and Cairngorms National Park, as well as ultimately St Andrews.

Will certainly likewise come in useful, occasionally it is actually additionally worth incorporating a slim headscarf, a sporting activities hat and sports gloves to the bag (springtime and also autumn).

Did you know these realities on CBD OIL and Full Spectrum CBD Hemp Oil? Cannabinoids are isolated from hemp using supercritical CO2 extraction. Thanks to modern-day innovation, the resulting service is tidy, devoid of heavy metals and unneeded waxes, naturally present in the plant, and the drawn liquid has a typical, oily consistency. CBD oil contains cannabidiol as a base component and might include only trace quantities of tetrahydroxycannabidiol (THC). It is suggested by medical professionals and pharmacists as an antioxidant and compound that blocks the action of proinflammatory cytokines (proteins), e.g. in Crohn’s illness or ulcerative intestine. RSO oil has a low CBD material, while high THC. The synergistic (enhancing) action of CBD and THC relative to each other is used here. Both cannabinoids can do much more together than when used separately. Both marijuana oil type CBD and RSO also consist of other cannabinoids, such as cannabichromene (CBC) and cannabigerol (CBG). The trick is not, nevertheless, that CBD frequently has actually a composition expanded to consist of flavones, flavonoids, terpenes, terpenoids, amino acids and omega acids. The difference is mainly due to motives directing mankind to utilize one or the other item. CBD medical cannabis oil is a rather beneficial mix of cannabinoids, developed to safeguard versus 21st century disease. It’s finest to utilize all of these compounds together, as nature produced them and enclosed in marijuana inflorescences. It turns out that cannabidiol improves the effects of cannabichromene (CBC) and cannabigerol (CBG), and flavonoids or flavones enhance the absorption of these substances. Omega-6 and omega-3 highly nourish the body and do not allow to alter, which speed up the aging process of the organism and boost the advancement of cancer. Oil of marijuana in a type of hobby APR includes percentages of CBD, balanced by the presence of THC. Producers concentrate on the synergistic impact of one compound relative to the other, while deserting the existence of CBC and CBG. Why such a choice? – Modern clinical research study reveals that CBD + THC cope with major autoimmune diseases, while CBC or CBG reveal minimal activity in the presence of both compounds, similar to terpenes, flavones or flavonoids, therefore their material in the option seems to be unneeded. In addition, the cannabis strain from which THC and CBD are derived contain minimal amounts of other cannabinoids. RSO oil is totally illegal in Poland, which is why it can not be acquired in any legally running store on the market. Naturally, there are a variety of amateur approaches for acquiring it, but it’s good to understand that compounds gotten artificially in house labs are uncertain, untried, and the effect unknown. The solvent for the production of home RSO is typically fuel, alcohol and even kerosene, which rather of treating, toxin. Alcohols and their like impair cannabinoids, therefore in reality, they don’t bring anything brand-new to the medical world. Marijuana oil has currently marked a new era in which guy stopped to fear what is unidentified, and began to discover what our ancestors had currently seen and use the substantial potential, in the beginning look, a little strange relationships, associated mainly with pathology. Medical marijuana, contrary to its name, does not suggest fermented female inflorescences and leaves containing psychedelic compounds coiled in so-called “Joints”, however a beneficial oil without psychedelic THC.

Scotland is definitely a truly attractive country, and every year it is actually gone to through groups of visitors from the United States, France, and even Italy or even Spain. Barely any person taking leave of absence in July, August or even September are going to believe of Scotland. Perhaps it is excellent to believe concerning it straight currently, when the worth of the extra pound is actually falling, and also hence our team will pay for a lot less for a holiday in Scotland? Glen Affric in early springtime Why is it worth it? Scotland is actually predominantly an excellent landscape in the north of the nation. In Scotland, I have presently been capable to see seals, dolphins or even deer. Scotland is actually likewise an in the past appealing land (who enjoyed Brave Heart?), Where you can easily check out impressive stone fortress (Edinburgh, Stirling, Linlithgow, Eilean Donan). The capital itself, the magnificent Edinburgh, also ought to have focus, particularly during the summer months festivities. country Scotland, scottish Scotland, app Scotland, conservative Scotland, relevant information Scotland, scotland Scotland, us Scotland, edinburgh Scotland, little one Scotland, cult Scotland, map Scotland, iona Scotland, food selection Scotland, trip Scotland, records Scotland, past Scotland, vehicle Scotland, ship Scotland, uk Scotland, learn Scotland, celtic Scotland, glasgow Scotland, shetland Scotland, lifestyle Scotland, tay Scotland, bus Scotland, updates Scotland, education Scotland, bit Scotland, navigating Scotland, cookie Scotland, covid Scotland, sporting activity Scotland, accessibility Scotland, videos Scotland, highland video games Scotland, community Scotland, golf Scotland, scots Scotland, food Scotland, whisky Scotland, spending plan Scotland, visitscotland Scotland, museum Scotland, newsletter Scotland, arbroath Scotland, heck Scotland, roadway Scotland, distilleries Scotland, street andrews Scotland, alcoholic beverage Scotland, see scotland Scotland, europe Scotland, castles Scotland, potential Scotland, encounter Scotland, weblog Scotland, dundee Scotland, steering Scotland, sports Scotland, covid-Scotland9 Scotland, transport Scotland. Edinburgh – Some ideas for exploring Scotland Trip in Scotland must certainly start with its financing. Edinburgh is actually an attractive middle ages a town along with characteristic rock buildings. From the major road, the alleged The Royal Mile linking the former imperial fortress along with the Queen’s summer palace (Palace of Holyroodhouse) escapes a system of fascinating small roads (the so-called shut), producing a maze in which it is actually truly worth getting lost. It takes about 2 times to go to Edinburgh, however you may prolong this moment around 4. In the scenario of a brief browse through to Scotland, you may likewise limit yourself to Edinburgh merely, investing 1 day on a rounded excursion by bus in the Scottish plateaus (virtually every travel bureau in the resources uses it). Thus, at minimum for a moment our team are going to experience the ambience of a real property of moistures. An also far better concept is actually to rent out an automobile for eventually and take place an individual travel (the system and nature of the managed trips carry out not necessarily satisfy everybody). Such a self-guided trip is going to most likely take our team a minimum of 10 hours. For a slightly longer quest (albeit still limited to just a few days) coming from Edinburgh, I would suggest to reach in pair of paths: Isle of Arran or even Loch Lomond. Arran is contacted Scotland in baby. Investing 2 or 3 times on the isle, our experts can easily appreciate the charm of the west shoreline, rest on the beach, climb up the best peak of the isle– Goat Fell, and also admire the grassy hills as well as delight in the area. Loch Lomond is just one of Scotland’s two national forests, a stunning pond neighbored through rainforests and hills. En route, you can easily additionally see Stirling Castle. There is actually a direct learn coming from Glasgow in both directions. nation Scotland, scottish Scotland, app Scotland, conservative Scotland, relevant information Scotland, scotland Scotland, our team Scotland, edinburgh Scotland, child Scotland, creed Scotland, map Scotland, iona Scotland, menu Scotland, traveling Scotland, information Scotland, history Scotland, auto Scotland, ship Scotland, uk Scotland, learn Scotland, celtic Scotland, glasgow Scotland, shetland Scotland, lifestyle Scotland, tay Scotland, bus Scotland, headlines Scotland, learning Scotland, little bit Scotland, navigating Scotland, cookie Scotland, covid Scotland, sport Scotland, accessibility Scotland, video recordings Scotland, highland video games Scotland, neighborhood Scotland, golf Scotland, scots Scotland, food items Scotland, whisky Scotland, budget plan Scotland, visitscotland Scotland, gallery Scotland, bulletin Scotland, arbroath Scotland, heck Scotland, road Scotland, distilleries Scotland, street andrews Scotland, beverage Scotland, visit scotland Scotland, europe Scotland, castles Scotland, potential Scotland, encounter Scotland, blog post Scotland, dundee Scotland, driving Scotland, sports Scotland, covid-Scotland9 Scotland, transportation Scotland. Reduced Budget Travel? Scotland, like the entire of Great Britain, is none of the most affordable destinations. You may find a whole lot of treking trails and also campsites right here. Moreover, in Scotland the outdoor tents can be actually prepared up essentially anywhere, thus tourists can likewise oversleep the untamed. What is necessary in this particular situation is actually global access to tidy water– our team can locate hill waterfalls, streams and waterways just about anywhere. The very most renowned and also among the absolute most lovely exploring tracks in Europe is actually the alleged West Highland Way. As a result of to the remarkable perspectives, I exuberantly highly recommend Longer journey? How around north along the west coast and afterwards back to the quieter, albeit a lot less stunning eastern? Numerous travelers in Glasgow, takes a train to Mallaig (occasionally seeing Glencoe or Fort William en route) at that point gos to Isle of Skye (the best beautiful of the Scottish isles), then head along the coastline towards Ullapool, as for Durness, on the means back checking out Inverness, Fort Augustus (Loch Ness), Aberdeen and Cairngorms National Park, and also lastly Street Andrews. Is it feasible by learns as well as buses? Certainly it is feasible, but you will definitely skip a whole lot, so it is actually better to rent an automobile for a minimum of aspect of the vacation. As well as don’t be actually deceived due to the visitor snare of Loch Ness– in fact, there are lots of far more beautiful spots all around Scotland country Scotland, scottish Scotland, application Scotland, tory Scotland, relevant information Scotland, scotland Scotland, our team Scotland, edinburgh Scotland, child Scotland, creed Scotland, map Scotland, iona Scotland, menu Scotland, trip Scotland, data Scotland, background Scotland, vehicle Scotland, ship Scotland, uk Scotland, learn Scotland, celtic Scotland, glasgow Scotland, shetland Scotland, lifestyle Scotland, tay Scotland, bus Scotland, headlines Scotland, education Scotland, little Scotland, navigation Scotland, biscuit Scotland, covid Scotland, sporting activity Scotland, accessibility Scotland, online videos Scotland, highland activities Scotland, area Scotland, golf Scotland, scots Scotland, food items Scotland, whisky Scotland, spending plan Scotland, visitscotland Scotland, museum Scotland, e-newsletter Scotland, arbroath Scotland, hell Scotland, road Scotland, distilleries Scotland, street andrews Scotland, alcoholic beverage Scotland, go to scotland Scotland, europe Scotland, castles Scotland, potential Scotland, encounter Scotland, blog Scotland, dundee Scotland, driving Scotland, sporting activities Scotland, transport Scotland Glenelg The climate could be irregular. I remember exploring Scotland for the very first time in the end of April. It was actually already come Scotland, the sunlight was heating up, while in Scotland it was actually still wintertime around. The Highlands were actually still covered in snow in lots of places, as well as in Edinburgh it was piercingly rain. Of course, it ended up as soon as possible that I hadn’t stuffed the best factors. I was actually planning to remain in the urban area, however also ballet flats, shoes, thin blouses and ornamental jackets diminish in spring season. When taking a trip in Scotland, first of all great, water-resistant, sporting activities footwear. Are going to additionally come in helpful, occasionally it is actually additionally worth including a slim headscarf, a sports hat as well as sports gloves to the backpack (spring and autumn). In wintertime, I recommend staying away from Scotland from a proximity. In the case of a low-budget excursion, sleep in a tent or keep simply in hotels (expense regarding PLN 80 every night)., Whiskey, visit at least one distillery and instruction fish and also potato chips along with vinegar at the very least once. I really hope that with this blog post I motivated my good friends (:-RRB-) however likewise unfamiliar people to take a trip to Scotland. It is actually truly worth a hundred times! I welcome you to explore, so I am actually still right here. Gorgeous Scottish beaches. Loch Lomond Backpack. Iona- tiny island, white colored seashores. Isle of Skye. Glencoe. Eilean Donan Castle. Island of Arran. Scotland is actually most certainly a truly beautiful country, and every year it is checked out by crowds of visitors coming from the United States, France, and also also Italy or Spain.

Scotland is actually certainly a truly gorgeous nation, and also yearly it is seen through groups of travelers coming from the United States, France, and also also Italy or even Spain. I may certainly not stand up to the feeling that Poles happen below mostly for work. Rarely anyone departing in July, August or September are going to consider Scotland. Probably it is due to the fact that of the costs that are actually undoubtedly antagonistic for some tourists. At the same time, the land of Nessi and also males in kilts is actually absolutely worth a lengthy or even quick quest. Perhaps it is actually excellent to consider it straight now, when the market value of the extra pound is actually dropping, and therefore we will pay for less for a holiday season in Scotland? Glen Affric in early spring Why is it worth it? Scotland is largely a fantastic yard in the north of the country. In Scotland, I have actually already been actually able to enjoy seals, dolphins or also deer.

Edinburgh – Some tips for visiting Scotland Travel in Scotland ought to most definitely begin with its own resources. Edinburgh is actually a beautiful middle ages a community along with symbolic stone buildings. Coming from the main street, the so-called The Royal Mile linking the previous royal fortress with the Queen’s summer season palace (Palace of Holyroodhouse) runs a system of interesting small streets (the so-called shut), developing a maze in which it is really worth getting dropped. It takes around pair of times to visit Edinburgh, yet you can easily prolong this time as much as four. When it comes to a quick browse through to Scotland, you may also restrict your own self to Edinburgh just, investing one day on a round vacation through bus in the Scottish highlands (almost every trip organization in the funding supplies it). This way, at the very least momentarily we will certainly experience the environment of a real property of moistures. An even better suggestion is to rent a vehicle for someday and also go on an individual journey (the course and attributes of the arranged tours carry out certainly not automatically satisfy every person). Such a self-guided tour will probably take our team at the very least 10 hrs. For a slightly longer adventure (albeit still limited to just a few times) coming from Edinburgh, I will suggest to attack in pair of paths: Isle of Arran or Loch Lomond. Arran is actually contacted Scotland in miniature. Spending 2 or even three times on the isle, our team can easily take pleasure in the charm of the west shore, relax on the seaside, climb up the highest possible height of the island– Goat Fell, and also marvel at the grassy mountains and also appreciate the room. Loch Lomond is among Scotland’s pair of nationwide playgrounds, a lovely pond encompassed by hills and also woodlands. Heading, you can easily likewise go to Stirling Castle.

Scotland, like the whole of Great Britain, is certainly not one of the most affordable destinations. In addition, in Scotland the outdoor tents can easily be specified up actually anywhere, therefore visitors can additionally sleep in the crazy. The most famous and also one of the very most gorgeous hiking routes in Europe is the so-called West Highland Way. Longer travel? How approximately north along the west coastline and afterwards back to the quieter, albeit much less impressive east? Many travelers in Glasgow, takes a learn to Mallaig (often checking out Glencoe or Fort William heading) then visits Isle of Skye (the absolute most gorgeous of the Scottish isles), after that head along the shore towards Ullapool, as much as Durness, on the method back exploring Inverness, Fort Augustus (Loch Ness), Aberdeen and Cairngorms National Park, and also ultimately St Andrews. Is it possible by buses as well as trains? Naturally it is actually possible, but you are going to skip a lot, so it is actually better to rent out a car for a minimum of component of the vacation.

It was actually already springtime in Scotland, the sunlight was actually heating up, while in Scotland it was still winter months all over. The Highlands were actually still covered in snowfall in several places, and also in Edinburgh it was actually piercingly rainfall. When traveling in Scotland, to begin with of all excellent, water-resistant, sports footwear. Will certainly also come in useful, in some cases it is also worth adding a slim headscarf, a sporting activities hat and also sports handwear covers to the bag (spring as well as fall). In winter season, I propose staying clear of Scotland coming from a span. Additional little bit of things: Umbrellas most definitely do not function (the wind bends them with all paths), the tent needs to (MUST!) have an excellent flysheet, it deserves taking a reusable bottle along with you (tap water, yet likewise drinkable in rivers or even flows), at the very least a handful of pairs of belts, a warm and comfortable fleece and also one thing to fend off nasty flies (I suggest a smidge). When it comes to a low-budget travel, sleeping in a camping tent or even keep just in hostels (price concerning PLN 80 per night). You need to make an effort seafood (they are actually scrumptious!), Whiskey, go to at the very least one whiskey and order fish and also potato chips along with vinegar at the very least the moment. I really hope that using this article I encouraged my buddies (:-RRB-) but likewise strangers to journey to Scotland. It’s definitely worth a hundred times! I welcome you to visit, if just I am actually still right here. Lovely Scottish seashores. Loch Lomond Backpack. Iona- very small isle, white coastlines. Isle of Skye. Glencoe. Eilean Donan Castle. Island of Arran. Scotland is undoubtedly a truly beautiful country, and every year it is checked out by crowds of vacationers coming from the United States, France, and even Italy or even Spain. Arran is actually gotten in touch with Scotland in mini. Scotland, like the entire of Great Britain, is actually certainly not one of the cheapest places.

Scotland is unquestionably a really lovely nation, and also annually it is actually gone to by crowds of travelers coming from the United States, France, as well as also Italy or Spain.

Since of the costs that are certainly unfriendly for some tourists, maybe it is. The property of Nessi and also males in kilts is absolutely worth a brief or long experience. Possibly it is really good to think of it immediately, when the worth of the extra pound is actually falling, and also thus our team will pay out less for a holiday season in Scotland? Glen Affric in very early springtime Therefore why is it worth it? Scotland is predominantly a fantastic garden in the north of the nation. Highlands– hills covered along with grass as well as louises, deep lochs (lakes), a remarkable shore collection, glen (stunning lowlands), and most importantly, seldom located in Europe (particularly in Scotland!) wild, where our team are going to certainly not see a single property. Space, area as well as space once again! Wild attribute, a wealth of vegetations, birds as well as various other animals wait for attribute aficionados. In Scotland, I have actually already been actually able to view seals, dolphins or perhaps deer. Scotland is likewise an in the past appealing land (that enjoyed Brave Heart?), Where you may go to impressive stone fortress (Edinburgh, Stirling, Linlithgow, Eilean Donan). The capital itself, the stunning Edinburgh, also is entitled to interest, specifically throughout the summer season celebrations. country Scotland, scottish Scotland, application Scotland, tory Scotland, relevant information Scotland, scotland Scotland, us Scotland, edinburgh Scotland, kid Scotland, creed Scotland, chart Scotland, iona Scotland, food selection Scotland, travel Scotland, records Scotland, past Scotland, auto Scotland, ship Scotland, uk Scotland, learn Scotland, celtic Scotland, glasgow Scotland, shetland Scotland, society Scotland, tay Scotland, bus Scotland, news Scotland, education and learning Scotland, little bit Scotland, navigation Scotland, biscuit Scotland, covid Scotland, sport Scotland, access Scotland, online videos Scotland, highland games Scotland, neighborhood Scotland, golf Scotland, scots Scotland, food Scotland, whisky Scotland, budget plan Scotland, visitscotland Scotland, museum Scotland, email list Scotland, arbroath Scotland, hell Scotland, roadway Scotland, distilleries Scotland, street andrews Scotland, cocktail Scotland, visit scotland Scotland, europe Scotland, castles Scotland, future Scotland, experience Scotland, blog post Scotland, dundee Scotland, steering Scotland, sports Scotland, covid-Scotland9 Scotland, transportation Scotland. Edinburgh – Some suggestions for going to Scotland Trip in Scotland need to most definitely start with its own funds. Edinburgh is a lovely middle ages a town with characteristic rock structures. From the major road, the supposed The Royal Mile linking the former royal fortress along with the Queen’s summer royal residence (Palace of Holyroodhouse) runs a system of intriguing small roads (the supposed shut), making a puzzle through which it is actually really worth acquiring shed. It takes about pair of days to visit Edinburgh, however you may stretch this time around approximately 4. In the scenario of a quick check out to Scotland, you can likewise restrict your own self to Edinburgh just, spending one day on a circular journey through bus in the Scottish mountainous (nearly every trip agency in the funding supplies it). In this way, at minimum for a second our team will definitely feel the ambience of a true property of moistures. An also much better idea is to lease an automobile for 1 day and also go on a private travel (the course and nature of the arranged tours do not automatically fit everybody). Such a self-guided trip is going to most likely take our company a minimum of ten hours. Arran is actually called Scotland in miniature. Loch Lomond is actually one of Scotland’s 2 national playgrounds, a stunning pond bordered through mountains and also rainforests. On the method, you can likewise visit Stirling Castle. nation Scotland, scottish Scotland, application Scotland, tory Scotland, info Scotland, scotland Scotland, our team Scotland, edinburgh Scotland, child Scotland, cult Scotland, chart Scotland, iona Scotland, menu Scotland, travel Scotland, data Scotland, record Scotland, cars and truck Scotland, ship Scotland, uk Scotland, learn Scotland, celtic Scotland, glasgow Scotland, shetland Scotland, lifestyle Scotland, tay Scotland, bus Scotland, news Scotland, education and learning Scotland, bit Scotland, navigating Scotland, biscuit Scotland, covid Scotland, sport Scotland, access Scotland, videos Scotland, highland video games Scotland, area Scotland, golf Scotland, scots Scotland, meals Scotland, whisky Scotland, spending plan Scotland, visitscotland Scotland, gallery Scotland, e-newsletter Scotland, arbroath Scotland, hell Scotland, roadway Scotland, distilleries Scotland, st andrews Scotland, cocktail Scotland, browse through scotland Scotland, europe Scotland, castles Scotland, future Scotland, encounter Scotland, blog post Scotland, dundee Scotland, steering Scotland, sporting activities Scotland, covid-Scotland9 Scotland, transportation Scotland.

Additionally, in Scotland the outdoor tents can be actually established up actually anywhere, thus vacationers can easily additionally oversleep the crazy. What is very important within this instance is global access to clean water– our company can find mountain range streams, streams and also waterfalls nearly anywhere. One of the most famous as well as one of the best beautiful hiking trails in Europe is the supposed West Highland Way. Due to the fantastic sights, I exuberantly recommend Longer vacation? How about north along the west shoreline and after that back to the quieter, albeit a lot less amazing eastern? Numerous travelers in Glasgow, takes a learn to Mallaig (often exploring Glencoe or Fort William heading) after that sees Isle of Skye (one of the most stunning of the Scottish islands), then head along the shoreline towards Ullapool, as far as Durness, en route back seeing Inverness, Fort Augustus (Loch Ness), Aberdeen and Cairngorms National Park, and also finally Street Andrews. Is it possible by trains as well as buses? Obviously it is actually feasible, yet you will definitely miss a whole lot, so it is actually far better to rent a cars and truck for a minimum of portion of the travel.

The Highlands were still dealt with in snowfall in lots of locations, and in Edinburgh it was piercingly rain. When taking a trip in Scotland, initially of all really good, waterproof, sports shoes. Are going to likewise come in helpful, sometimes it is actually likewise worth adding a thin headscarf, a sporting activities hat as well as sporting activities handwear covers to the knapsack (spring season as well as fall). In winter months, I propose staying clear of Scotland coming from a span. In the scenario of a low-budget trip, sleep in an outdoor tents or even stay just in hostels (expense concerning PLN 80 per night)., Whiskey, check out at least one distillery and instruction fish and potato chips with vinegar at least the moment.

Scotland is actually definitely a definitely wonderful country, as well as every year it is explored by groups of travelers from the United States, France, as well as even Italy or even Spain. Barely anyone taking leave in July, August or September will certainly believe of Scotland. Perhaps it is actually excellent to assume regarding it right currently, when the value of the pound is falling, as well as thus our experts will spend less for a holiday in Scotland? Glen Affric in early springtime Why is it worth it? Scotland is mainly a wonderful garden in the north of the country. In Scotland, I have actually currently been able to check out tapes, dolphins or also deer. Scotland is additionally an in the past fascinating land (that watched Brave Heart?), Where you can easily visit spectacular stone fortress (Edinburgh, Stirling, Linlithgow, Eilean Donan). The resources on its own, the marvelous Edinburgh, also is entitled to interest, specifically in the course of the summer months festivals. nation Scotland, scottish Scotland, app Scotland, tory Scotland, details Scotland, scotland Scotland, our company Scotland, edinburgh Scotland, youngster Scotland, creed Scotland, chart Scotland, iona Scotland, menu Scotland, traveling Scotland, information Scotland, record Scotland, vehicle Scotland, ship Scotland, uk Scotland, learn Scotland, celtic Scotland, glasgow Scotland, shetland Scotland, society Scotland, tay Scotland, bus Scotland, news Scotland, education Scotland, little bit Scotland, navigating Scotland, cookie Scotland, covid Scotland, sport Scotland, access Scotland, online videos Scotland, highland video games Scotland, area Scotland, golf Scotland, scots Scotland, food items Scotland, whisky Scotland, budget plan Scotland, visitscotland Scotland, museum Scotland, email list Scotland, arbroath Scotland, hell Scotland, street Scotland, distilleries Scotland, street andrews Scotland, drink Scotland, go to scotland Scotland, europe Scotland, castles Scotland, potential Scotland, experience Scotland, weblog Scotland, dundee Scotland, steering Scotland, sports Scotland, covid-Scotland9 Scotland, transportation Scotland. Edinburgh – Some tips for visiting Scotland Trip in Scotland must most definitely start with its resources. Edinburgh is actually a lovely medieval a community with characteristic stone structures. From the main street, the so-called The Royal Mile attaching the former imperial palace along with the Queen’s summer season palace (Palace of Holyroodhouse) manages off a system of intriguing little streets (the so-called shut), making a puzzle in which it is definitely worth receiving dropped. It takes about two times to explore Edinburgh, but you can easily prolong this moment approximately 4. When it comes to a short browse through to Scotland, you can additionally restrict on your own to Edinburgh merely, spending 1 day on a circular trip through bus in the Scottish plateaus (practically every travel bureau in the capital offers it). Thus, at the very least for an instant our company will certainly really feel the environment of a genuine land of mists. An even better concept is actually to rent a cars and truck for one time as well as take place a private travel (the system and attribute of the arranged excursions perform not automatically match everybody). Such a self-guided tour will perhaps take us at the very least ten hours. For a somewhat longer experience (albeit still restricted to merely a couple of days) from Edinburgh, I would certainly advise to strike in pair of paths: Isle of Arran or even Loch Lomond. Arran is actually gotten in touch with Scotland in miniature. Investing two or even three times on the isle, our experts can easily delight in the charm of the west shore, unwind on the beach front, go up the highest height of the isle– Goat Fell, as well as appreciate the verdant hills and also enjoy the space. Loch Lomond is just one of Scotland’s 2 nationwide playgrounds, a stunning pond encompassed through hills and also rainforests. Heading, you can easily also check out Stirling Castle. There is a direct learn from Glasgow in each instructions. country Scotland, scottish Scotland, application Scotland, conservative Scotland, information Scotland, scotland Scotland, us Scotland, edinburgh Scotland, kid Scotland, creed Scotland, map Scotland, iona Scotland, menu Scotland, traveling Scotland, records Scotland, past Scotland, automobile Scotland, ship Scotland, uk Scotland, train Scotland, celtic Scotland, glasgow Scotland, shetland Scotland, lifestyle Scotland, tay Scotland, bus Scotland, news Scotland, education and learning Scotland, little bit Scotland, navigating Scotland, cookie Scotland, covid Scotland, sporting activity Scotland, accessibility Scotland, online videos Scotland, highland activities Scotland, neighborhood Scotland, golf Scotland, scots Scotland, food items Scotland, whisky Scotland, budget Scotland, visitscotland Scotland, gallery Scotland, bulletin Scotland, arbroath Scotland, hell Scotland, roadway Scotland, distilleries Scotland, street andrews Scotland, beverage Scotland, visit scotland Scotland, europe Scotland, castles Scotland, potential Scotland, encounter Scotland, blog Scotland, dundee Scotland, steering Scotland, sporting activities Scotland, covid-Scotland9 Scotland, transportation Scotland. Scotland, like the entire of Great Britain, is not one of the cheapest destinations. In addition, in Scotland the tent can be set up virtually anywhere, therefore travelers may likewise rest in the wild. The very most popular and one of the most gorgeous exploring tracks in Europe is actually the so-called West Highland Way. Longer excursion? Exactly how about north along the west shore as well as after that back to the quieter, albeit a lot less amazing eastern? Many tourists in Glasgow, takes a train to Mallaig (sometimes exploring Glencoe or Fort William heading) at that point gos to Isle of Skye (the very most attractive of the Scottish isles), after that head along the coast in the direction of Ullapool, regarding Durness, en route back visiting Inverness, Fort Augustus (Loch Ness), Aberdeen as well as Cairngorms National Park, as well as lastly St Andrews. Is it achievable through buses as well as learns? Naturally it is actually possible, but you are going to skip a lot, so it is better to rent a car for at least component of the vacation. And do not be actually deceived through the vacationer snare of Loch Ness– in simple fact, there are actually loads of so much more lovely areas all over Scotland country Scotland, scottish Scotland, application Scotland, conservative Scotland, information Scotland, scotland Scotland, our company Scotland, edinburgh Scotland, kid Scotland, cult Scotland, chart Scotland, iona Scotland, menu Scotland, traveling Scotland, data Scotland, record Scotland, vehicle Scotland, ship Scotland, uk Scotland, train Scotland, celtic Scotland, glasgow Scotland, shetland Scotland, society Scotland, tay Scotland, bus Scotland, news Scotland, learning Scotland, bit Scotland, navigation Scotland, biscuit Scotland, covid Scotland, sport Scotland, access Scotland, online videos Scotland, highland games Scotland, area Scotland, golf Scotland, scots Scotland, food items Scotland, whisky Scotland, budget Scotland, visitscotland Scotland, gallery Scotland, e-newsletter Scotland, arbroath Scotland, heck Scotland, roadway Scotland, distilleries Scotland, st andrews Scotland, alcoholic beverage Scotland, visit scotland Scotland, europe Scotland, castles Scotland, potential Scotland, take in Scotland, blog post Scotland, dundee Scotland, steering Scotland, sports Scotland, transportation Scotland Glenelg The weather can be actually unpredictable. I keep in mind going to Scotland for the very first time by the end of April. It was actually currently spring in Scotland, the sunshine was heating up, while in Scotland it was actually still winter months all around. The Highlands were actually still covered in snow in several areas, and in Edinburgh it was actually piercingly rainfall. Obviously, it ended up as soon as possible that I hadn’t stuffed the appropriate points. I was actually preparing to remain in the metropolitan area, but additionally ballet flats, shoes, slim shirts and ornamental coats fall off in spring season. When journeying in Scotland, initially of all really good, waterproof, sports footwear. Will additionally happen in helpful, at times it is likewise worth incorporating a thin headscarf, a sporting activities hat as well as sporting activities gloves to the backpack (spring and autumn). In winter, I advise staying clear of Scotland coming from a proximity. In the case of a low-budget journey, sleep in a camping tent or stay just in hotels (price concerning PLN 80 per evening)., Whiskey, visit at least one distillery as well as instruction fish as well as chips with white vinegar at minimum once. I really hope that through this message I urged my close friends (:-RRB-) but likewise unknown people to travel to Scotland. It’s actually worth a hundred opportunities! I welcome you to go to, if merely I am actually still listed here. Gorgeous Scottish beach fronts. Loch Lomond Backpack. Iona- very small isle, white colored beaches. Isle of Skye. Glencoe. Eilean Donan Castle. Isle of Arran. Scotland is most certainly a definitely stunning country, as well as every year it is actually checked out by crowds of tourists coming from the United States, France, as well as even Italy or even Spain. Arran is called Scotland in miniature. Scotland, like the whole of Great Britain, is not one of the least expensive places. It was actually presently spring in Scotland, the sunlight was warming up, while in Scotland it was actually still winter months all over. I wish that with this blog post I promoted my friends (:-RRB-) but additionally unknown people to take a trip to https://www.scotland.com/

Scotland is most certainly a truly attractive country, and annually it is actually checked out through crowds of visitors coming from the United States, France, and also Italy or even Spain. Nonetheless, I may certainly not withstand the perception that Poles happen right here mostly for work. Hardly any individual taking leave in July, August or September will think about Scotland. Possibly it is actually given that of the costs that are actually undoubtedly unfriendly for some tourists. Meanwhile, the property of Nessi as well as guys in kilts is actually certainly worth a longer or quick quest. Maybe it is really good to deal with it at this moment, when the value of the pound is dropping, as well as therefore we will spend less for a vacation in Scotland? Glen Affric in very early springtime So why is it worth it? Scotland is actually predominantly a remarkable garden in the north of the nation. Highlands– hills covered with lawn as well as louises, deeper lochs (ponds), a dramatic coastline series, glen (stunning lowlands), as well as most importantly, seldom located in Europe (particularly in Scotland!) wilderness, where our experts will certainly not find a singular property. Space, area and space once more! Wild attribute, a great quantity of vegetations, birds and other creatures await attribute enthusiasts. In Scotland, I have actually already been able to view seals, dolphins or perhaps deer. Yet Scotland is actually likewise a historically intriguing property (that checked out Brave Heart?), Where you can see wonderful stone palaces (Edinburgh, Stirling, Linlithgow, Eilean Donan). The financing itself, the marvelous Edinburgh, likewise is worthy of interest, particularly throughout the summer season festivals. nation Scotland, scottish Scotland, application Scotland, conservative Scotland, information Scotland, scotland Scotland, our company Scotland, edinburgh Scotland, child Scotland, creed Scotland, map Scotland, iona Scotland, menu Scotland, traveling Scotland, data Scotland, past history Scotland, vehicle Scotland, ship Scotland, uk Scotland, train Scotland, celtic Scotland, glasgow Scotland, shetland Scotland, culture Scotland, tay Scotland, bus Scotland, headlines Scotland, education Scotland, little Scotland, navigation Scotland, biscuit Scotland, covid Scotland, sporting activity Scotland, accessibility Scotland, videos Scotland, highland video games Scotland, community Scotland, golf Scotland, scots Scotland, food items Scotland, whisky Scotland, budget Scotland, visitscotland Scotland, museum Scotland, bulletin Scotland, arbroath Scotland, heck Scotland, street Scotland, distilleries Scotland, street andrews Scotland, alcoholic beverage Scotland, browse through scotland Scotland, europe Scotland, castles Scotland, potential Scotland, take in Scotland, weblog Scotland, dundee Scotland, driving Scotland, sporting activities Scotland, covid-Scotland9 Scotland, transport Scotland. Edinburgh – Some suggestions for seeing Scotland Traveling in Scotland should certainly begin with its financing. It takes about 2 times to visit Edinburgh, however you can easily stretch this opportunity up to 4. In the case of a brief browse through to Scotland, you can easily additionally restrict your own self to Edinburgh only, investing one time on a rounded trip through bus in the Scottish mountainous (virtually every trip firm in the funding supplies it). For a somewhat longer trip (albeit still restricted to a few days) coming from Edinburgh, I would propose to attack in two paths: Isle of Arran or even Loch Lomond. Arran is actually contacted Scotland in mini. Investing two or even three times on the island, our company can easily enjoy the beauty of the west coast, kick back on the seashore, climb the highest top of the isle– Goat Fell, in addition to appreciate the grassy hillsides and also enjoy the space. Loch Lomond is actually one of Scotland’s pair of national playgrounds, a beautiful lake encompassed by hillsides and woodlands. On the method, you may likewise check out Stirling Castle. There is actually a direct train coming from Glasgow in both paths. nation Scotland, scottish Scotland, app Scotland, conservative Scotland, information Scotland, scotland Scotland, our company Scotland, edinburgh Scotland, youngster Scotland, creed Scotland, chart Scotland, iona Scotland, menu Scotland, traveling Scotland, records Scotland, past history Scotland, auto Scotland, ship Scotland, uk Scotland, train Scotland, celtic Scotland, glasgow Scotland, shetland Scotland, lifestyle Scotland, tay Scotland, bus Scotland, updates Scotland, education Scotland, little Scotland, navigation Scotland, biscuit Scotland, covid Scotland, sporting activity Scotland, accessibility Scotland, video clips Scotland, highland video games Scotland, area Scotland, golf Scotland, scots Scotland, meals Scotland, whisky Scotland, budget Scotland, visitscotland Scotland, gallery Scotland, e-newsletter Scotland, arbroath Scotland, hell Scotland, roadway Scotland, distilleries Scotland, st andrews Scotland, cocktail Scotland, see scotland Scotland, europe Scotland, castles Scotland, future Scotland, take in Scotland, weblog Scotland, dundee Scotland, driving Scotland, sports Scotland, covid-Scotland9 Scotland, transportation Scotland. Reduced Budget Travel? Scotland, like the whole of Great Britain, is none of the most affordable destinations. Nonetheless, you can easily find a lot of exploring routes and campsites here. In add-on, in Scotland the outdoor tents could be established practically anywhere, therefore tourists may also oversleep bush. What is necessary in this particular case is actually common access to clean water– we can discover mountain range falls, flows and also waterways practically all over. The very most widely known and also one of the best gorgeous hiking tracks in Europe is actually the supposed West Highland Way. Because of the fantastic perspectives, I exuberantly highly recommend Longer excursion? Exactly how approximately north along the west coastline as well as then back to the quieter, albeit less exceptional eastern? Many visitors in Glasgow, takes a learn to Mallaig (in some cases seeing Glencoe or even Fort William en route) then gos to Isle of Skye (the most gorgeous of the Scottish islands), at that point scalp along the shore towards Ullapool, as for Durness, heading back seeing Inverness, Fort Augustus (Loch Ness), Aberdeen and Cairngorms National Park, and also finally St Andrews. Is it achievable by buses and trains? Certainly it is actually achievable, yet you will miss out on a lot, so it is actually far better to lease a vehicle for a minimum of aspect of the travel. And do not be actually deceived by the visitor catch of Loch Ness– actually, there are actually a lot of considerably additional stunning spots all around Scotland country Scotland, scottish Scotland, application Scotland, conservative Scotland, information Scotland, scotland Scotland, us Scotland, edinburgh Scotland, little one Scotland, cult Scotland, chart Scotland, iona Scotland, menu Scotland, traveling Scotland, information Scotland, history Scotland, car Scotland, ship Scotland, uk Scotland, learn Scotland, celtic Scotland, glasgow Scotland, shetland Scotland, society Scotland, tay Scotland, bus Scotland, information Scotland, education and learning Scotland, bit Scotland, navigating Scotland, cookie Scotland, covid Scotland, sport Scotland, access Scotland, online videos Scotland, highland video games Scotland, area Scotland, golf Scotland, scots Scotland, meals Scotland, whisky Scotland, budget plan Scotland, visitscotland Scotland, gallery Scotland, newsletter Scotland, arbroath Scotland, hell Scotland, road Scotland, distilleries Scotland, st andrews Scotland, drink Scotland, browse through scotland Scotland, europe Scotland, castles Scotland, future Scotland, experience Scotland, blog site Scotland, dundee Scotland, driving Scotland, sporting activities Scotland, transportation Scotland Glenelg The climate may be erratic.

Scotland is undeniably an actually lovely nation, and also each year it is actually seen by groups of travelers coming from the United States, France, as well as also Italy or even Spain. I may not stand up to the opinion that Poles come listed here mainly for job. Barely any individual departing in July, August or even September will certainly think about Scotland. Since of the rates that are actually absolutely unfriendly for some vacationers, probably it is actually. At the same time, the property of Nessi and men in kilts is definitely worth a quick or lengthy quest. Possibly it is actually good to think of it today, when the worth of the pound is actually dropping, as well as thus we will spend much less for a holiday season in Scotland? Glen Affric in early spring season Why is it worth it? Scotland is largely a remarkable landscape in the north of the nation. In Scotland, I have currently been able to see tapes, dolphins or also deer. Scotland is actually likewise an in the past intriguing land (that saw Brave Heart?), Where you can easily go to magnificent rock palaces (Edinburgh, Stirling, Linlithgow, Eilean Donan). The funds on its own, the stunning Edinburgh, likewise is worthy of interest, specifically in the course of the summer festivities. country Scotland, scottish Scotland, app Scotland, conservative Scotland, relevant information Scotland, scotland Scotland, our company Scotland, edinburgh Scotland, little one Scotland, creed Scotland, map Scotland, iona Scotland, food selection Scotland, trip Scotland, information Scotland, background Scotland, cars and truck Scotland, ship Scotland, uk Scotland, train Scotland, celtic Scotland, glasgow Scotland, shetland Scotland, lifestyle Scotland, tay Scotland, bus Scotland, updates Scotland, learning Scotland, little bit Scotland, navigation Scotland, biscuit Scotland, covid Scotland, sporting activity Scotland, ease of access Scotland, video clips Scotland, highland activities Scotland, community Scotland, golf Scotland, scots Scotland, meals Scotland, whisky Scotland, budget Scotland, visitscotland Scotland, museum Scotland, bulletin Scotland, arbroath Scotland, hell Scotland, roadway Scotland, distilleries Scotland, street andrews Scotland, alcoholic beverage Scotland, check out scotland Scotland, europe Scotland, castles Scotland, future Scotland, take in Scotland, blogging site Scotland, dundee Scotland, driving Scotland, sports Scotland, covid-Scotland9 Scotland, transportation Scotland. Edinburgh – Some concepts for visiting Scotland Travel in Scotland should certainly start with its own capital. Edinburgh is actually a beautiful medieval a town along with symbolic rock properties. Coming from the principal road, the so-called The Royal Mile hooking up the previous imperial palace with the Queen’s summer season palace (Palace of Holyroodhouse) bolts a network of interesting tiny streets (the supposed close), producing a puzzle in which it is actually truly worth acquiring shed. It takes around pair of days to check out Edinburgh, yet you may expand this time around four. In the case of a brief browse through to Scotland, you can easily also restrict yourself to Edinburgh just, spending eventually on a round trip by bus in the Scottish highlands (virtually every travel bureau in the capital gives it). This way, at the very least for a moment we will certainly really feel the atmosphere of an actual property of mists. An even far better tip is to lease an automobile for eventually and take place an individual trip (the program and also nature of the arranged excursions carry out certainly not essentially satisfy every person). Such a self-guided excursion will possibly take our company at the very least 10 hrs. For a somewhat longer experience (albeit still limited to simply a few times) coming from Edinburgh, I would certainly propose to strike in two paths: Isle of Arran or Loch Lomond. Arran is actually phoned Scotland in baby. Devoting pair of or 3 days on the island, our team may take pleasure in the appeal of the west coastline, rest on the beach, climb up the best optimal of the isle– Goat Fell, and also appreciate the grassy hills and enjoy the room. Loch Lomond is actually one of Scotland’s pair of national forests, a gorgeous lake bordered through woodlands as well as hillsides. En route, you can additionally explore Stirling Castle. There is actually a direct learn coming from Glasgow in both paths. country Scotland, scottish Scotland, application Scotland, conservative Scotland, details Scotland, scotland Scotland, our company Scotland, edinburgh Scotland, child Scotland, cult Scotland, map Scotland, iona Scotland, food selection Scotland, travel Scotland, records Scotland, past history Scotland, auto Scotland, ship Scotland, uk Scotland, learn Scotland, celtic Scotland, glasgow Scotland, shetland Scotland, society Scotland, tay Scotland, bus Scotland, news Scotland, education Scotland, little bit Scotland, navigation Scotland, biscuit Scotland, covid Scotland, sport Scotland, availability Scotland, online videos Scotland, highland games Scotland, neighborhood Scotland, golf Scotland, scots Scotland, food items Scotland, whisky Scotland, budget Scotland, visitscotland Scotland, museum Scotland, e-newsletter Scotland, arbroath Scotland, hell Scotland, street Scotland, distilleries Scotland, st andrews Scotland, beverage Scotland, check out scotland Scotland, europe Scotland, castles Scotland, potential Scotland, encounter Scotland, blog site Scotland, dundee Scotland, driving Scotland, sports Scotland, covid-Scotland9 Scotland, transportation Scotland. Low Budget Travel? Scotland, like the entire of Great Britain, is none of the most cost effective locations. You may discover a whole lot of hiking routes and also campsites listed here. Moreover, in Scotland the outdoor tents may be put together essentially anywhere, so travelers may additionally oversleep bush. What is vital in this situation is global accessibility to well-maintained water– our team can easily locate mountain streams, streams and also falls nearly anywhere. The most renowned and also among the best stunning treking routes in Europe is actually the alleged West Highland Way. Due to the outstanding viewpoints, I exuberantly highly recommend Longer journey? Just how about north along the west coastline and afterwards back to the quieter, albeit less magnificent east? Lots of visitors in Glasgow, takes a train to Mallaig (at times exploring Glencoe or even Fort William en route) after that check outs Isle of Skye (the best wonderful of the Scottish isles), at that point scalp along the coast towards Ullapool, as far as Durness, en route back checking out Inverness, Fort Augustus (Loch Ness), Aberdeen and Cairngorms National Park, and also lastly Street Andrews. Is it possible through trains and buses? Naturally it is possible, but you are going to skip a lot, so it is better to lease a cars and truck for at the very least component of the journey. And also do not be actually fooled through the visitor catch of Loch Ness– as a matter of fact, there are actually a lot of a lot more attractive areas throughout Scotland nation Scotland, scottish Scotland, app Scotland, tory Scotland, information Scotland, scotland Scotland, our company Scotland, edinburgh Scotland, kid Scotland, creed Scotland, chart Scotland, iona Scotland, food selection Scotland, trip Scotland, records Scotland, past history Scotland, vehicle Scotland, ship Scotland, uk Scotland, learn Scotland, celtic Scotland, glasgow Scotland, shetland Scotland, lifestyle Scotland, tay Scotland, bus Scotland, news Scotland, learning Scotland, bit Scotland, navigation Scotland, cookie Scotland, covid Scotland, sport Scotland, ease of access Scotland, video clips Scotland, highland games Scotland, area Scotland, golf Scotland, scots Scotland, food items Scotland, whisky Scotland, spending plan Scotland, visitscotland Scotland, museum Scotland, newsletter Scotland, arbroath Scotland, heck Scotland, roadway Scotland, distilleries Scotland, street andrews Scotland, cocktail Scotland, check out scotland Scotland, europe Scotland, castles Scotland, future Scotland, encounter Scotland, blogging site Scotland, dundee Scotland, steering Scotland, sporting activities Scotland, transportation Scotland Glenelg The climate could be unpredictable.

It was actually currently come Scotland, the sunshine was actually heating up, while in Scotland it was still winter around. The Highlands were actually still dealt with in snowfall in several places, and in Edinburgh it was actually piercingly rainfall. Certainly, it transformed out immediately that I hadn’t packed the best factors. I was actually planning to stay in the area, but likewise ballet flats, sandals, slim blouses and also attractive jackets drop off in spring season. When taking a trip in Scotland, first of all great, water resistant, sports footwear. Will additionally come in handy, sometimes it is likewise worth adding a thin scarf, a sporting activities hat and sporting activities gloves to the bag (spring season and fall). In winter months, I suggest avoiding Scotland from a range. In the instance of a low-budget vacation, sleeping in an outdoor tents or even stay merely in hostels (price concerning PLN 80 every evening)., Whiskey, browse through at least one whiskey and also instruction fish and chips along with white vinegar at minimum the moment. I wish that through this post I motivated my good friends (:-RRB-) but likewise unfamiliar people to take a trip to Scotland. It’s truly worth a hundred times!

Scotland is actually most certainly a really stunning country, and every year it is actually checked out through crowds of visitors from the United States, France, and also even Italy or even Spain. I may certainly not stand up to the impact that Poles happen here mainly for work. Rarely anyone departing in July, August or even September will certainly presume of Scotland. Probably it is as a result of the rates that are actually undoubtedly antagonistic for some tourists. On the other hand, the property of Nessi and men in kilts is actually most definitely worth a lengthy or even short trip.

Look at your quote when we signed them!!! You said they “were raiding other clubs benches and that Kulusevski didn’t look very good”
But now they have turned out to be good that’s becAuse you said that’s what we needed to do?!
Come on Felon, admit it, we got 4th place, you said on numerous occasions we wouldn’t, eat some humble pie, grow a pair and admit you may not be the spurs supporter messiah that you think you are

Both were on the bench at Juventus getting no game time nothing I said was wrong.
They've both hit the ground running but let's not pretend this was superior scouting from the guy that got us Gollini, Emerson Royal, Brian Gil and Pape Sarr etc
It was a last minute raid on an old club for their cast offs that happened to pay off.
They've been the difference between mid table and sneaking 4th.
This has turned into such a weird site I'dv thought today would've been about celebrations not snidey digs as if top4 was a dead cert and those that didn't believe at the start of the season were somehow clueless.
A lot of things changed throughout the season but anyone trying to claim that the league hasn't been a shambles are just clutching.
Anyway have a good summer people let's hope Levy doesn't fvck this summer up and we get rid of more serial failures and improve with quality n much needed competition/depth.

If DL doesn't support Conte early in the window....I think he'll leave

Guesty, May 23, 2022
See, that’s where you really are wrong…I don’t care for JM or Roma and couldn’t care less if he or they win or not.
I do care about our club and our coach and to see you constantly criticise and make reference to JM when it is clear as day that Conte has done a better job both with us and at their respective clubs is the point.
If you are to continually to make reference to him then you will get responses that counter your arguement…especially when you can’t seem to accept we ended up in a great position in the toughest league in the world.
Like many others, I was personally really happy that our squad got to the position their potential has, we finished above Arsenal and we reached the CL. Great season and great job by everyone at spurs as no amount of whining will change that.
Felon82 said: ↑
It's obsessive behaviour to be desperate to see what he's doing elsewhere, no doubt you probably hope Roma lose that final, just like some Spurs fans wanted us to lose the LG Cup Semi such was the derangement.
It's irrelevant what's happening elsewhere different club different league different situation.

Again agree with you on the second part, Levy needs to step up in the summer because it will be a make or break period.
Critical for both manager and squad we sign well and we sign players who are both wanted by the coach and who can improve us.
I do hope you have a good summer off and you come back refreshed and a little more optimistic about next season…you do make the comments flow and keep the site interesting, even if you stubbornly refuse to accept improvement

Think you need to have a rewind both you and my biggest fan VOR wanted to give off sly little digs so I responded.
There's no need to stubbornly refuse something I don't believe, you conveniently ignore how poor the league has been, you make out as if we were always destined for top 4, plenty of things had to go our way to scrape in, a lot of that was down to recruitment which is what I've been calling for for years.
The narrative last season was we didn't score goals or attack and this season is totally different yet we scored 1 more goal than last.
Also the defence has been transformed but only conceded 5 less.
Many games we failed to even make double digits in attempts on goal and many we didn't register 1 on target.
Now I didn't crow about last seasons football I just saw it for what it was pragmatic making the best of poor players, conte has come in and done exactly the same thing and at the death we've got 4th.
Sick to death and bored of this sh;t how differently it's all made out to be as if you're judgement last season wasn't completely agenda driven.
Had Jose ducked out of all competitions early, lost to the likes of Mura Middlesbrough and a number of poor prem sides you'd have all been up in arms and don't pretend you wouldn't.
Just like Conte not using Alli etc he hasn't been lambasted for n expected just to coach better.
That's all I'm gonna say on the matter coz it's like being on loop dealing with kids who don't use thought over feelings.
Not sure il be back on this sess pit it used to have decent posters but now its just an echoe chamber of disingenuous irrational stupidity.

On a more positive note 150m plus player sales been put up today. Should be around 220m.

I just think the 11 with Sanchez, Winks & Bergwijn/Moura as regular starters.....doessn't get 4th......
but replace them with Romero, Benta & Kula and it's a different team.
Fair play to Conte for bringing in Benta & Kula..... and for lifting spirits......
Lets hope he can also lift DL to the same..... and get in the players he wants....improving the starting 11
Guesty, May 24, 2022
I’ve been reading that Paratici is going to focus on players who are out of contract initially which I assume is to improve the squad depth. Forster looks a done deal which is a far greater number 2 than we have had in a fair while. The reports mention players like Perisic also which if they come off are a perfect blend of experience that Conte wants without the constant pressure of being a regular starter. Apparently it’s the ploy that Paratici used at Juve to great effect and could be a really good strategy alongside the investments into higher value signings to improve the starting 11.
Be interesting to see what sales generate….I think with the 2 x bigger names we will attempt swaps if possible. Lo Celso for Torres would be a good start. Not sure who is interested in Ndombele but we won’t get the money we want so a swap is the only possible decent outcome. The potential sales that should generate decent income that come to mind are CCV, Rodon, Bergwijn, Winks and Emerson. That would then leave question marks over Moura, Doherty and Regy (if RM want him back).
Not sure what they are all worth or if we would let all go but we could have a really interesting summer ahead.

Forster is an interesting one given that Pope has been relegated.
maybe the feeling is that Forster will be happier not playing regularly.
Guesty, May 24, 2022
I reckon that’s true…that’s why the Johnston deal collapsed apparently as he wanted playing time guarantees which we wouldn’t give. The other thing with Pope is Burnley are going to want crazy money for him but Forster is zilch

Aw shucks you are making me blush, me, your biggest fan!
you’ll actually see I have said that you make sensible comments and are obviously an intelligent guy. My problem is that aside to that you seem to have got too stuck on the negative agenda and won’t admit when things may actually be ok
everyone agrees we aren’t the best in the league and that we need some changes and deeper squad but you have got to also see that we managed to get 4th position against the odds regardless of whether Man U were this, Arsenal were that etc
Part of being a supporter is that you back the team regardless of the issues they have, there are over a hundred other teams that don’t have a chance of major success but the fans stick by them and encourage and revel in whatever success can be had.
Yes, strive for more, yes shout out about poor management (from the board) but then also appreciate what has been done.
I’m sure if you asked all fans at the beginning of the season if a success would be top 4 they would al say yes. Check out the pundits predictions, nobody had us top 4
Anyway always good to have differing opinions but neither opinion should be blinkered and obstinate

I would not draw the line over reggy at wingback given the improvement in sessegnon i think conte maybe get a tune unless something much better comes up ie kostic. He had a good start then veered off and then had an injury hit last season. Like right wing back there aren't that many quality options out there really. I think right wing back however is a priority where as left wing I'm not so sure. I'd take both P. Torres and bastoni rather than one or the other. After that centre mid will need improving and thickening up given gio and tanguy won't be coming back and winks likely to be sold. I'd take Tielemens or Bissouma who both have little contract time left and all achievable targets if......IF we act quick. 4 signings in them positions I'd be happy. The front 3 look strong and difficult to replace but I'd expect bergwjin to leave so that opens up a spot. If moura moves on there could be room for another versatile attacker and either sterling or jesus would be class in particular the England man who links well with kane. Probably end up with Forster and weghorst to be fair hahaha

I’m one of those old posters Preed who haven’t been on here much this last season. Earlier on under Nuno it was so bad I just couldn’t be asked with any of it - going to The Lane, posting, responding and the like. Then when I did come onto to the site there was so much tit for tat stuff that in the end it all got very boring. On the football front, I’m elated by how Conte has transformed an average squad into something much better. It’s been the usual roller coaster of course but I’ll take it. You can’t ignore the form tables, goals scored, goal difference uptick - an amazing transformation, Sonny’s achievement, Kane’s form, hammering the Gooners, stopping the Scousers getting the PL crown. That was Priceless. COYS

BYU women’s basketball couldn’t finish the fight Tuesday afternoon against No. 16 Oklahoma, stumbling down the stretch to fall 77-66 against the future Big 12 conference mate Sooners.
“We need to get better at coming together and not getting rattled, but our perseverance pushed us through,” BYU head coach Amber Whiting said. “I was really proud of the girls tonight because we’ve played a solid half before, and tonight we played three quarters. We are young still, and super inexperienced, but this team is growing and getting experience every day.”
The Cougars outshot the Sooners, led by as many as 11 points and held the lead for the majority of the contest, but were outscored 16-6 in the final three minutes and couldn’t solve their turnover issues in coughing up 15 giveaways.
Lauren Gustin notched her 32nd career double-double with 15 points and 20 rebounds, and Amanda Barcello drained four three-pointers to add another 12 points.

People across cultures hold diverse notions on the ideal type of well-being and on how a societal development may help achieve it. However, empirical studies into these two topics and their interaction are scant. We currently address these research gaps.
We plan to collect data from at least fifty countries. This data will help us create mappings of “ideal types of well-being” and of “folk theoriesof societal development”. We will also investigate psychological processes behind - regulatory focus, psychological motives, and cultural models of selfhoods.
Please feel invited to join us. Your involvement in our project can range from data collection in your country to all more advanced activities that researchers normally do, e.g., theoretical contributions, data analyses, manuscripts’ writing. Teams from all countries are welcome, but we are particularly interested in collaborations with countries currently underrepresented in psychological science, this is, with teams from Africa, Latin America, Eastern Europe and non-Confucian Asia. Teams from large multi-cultural countries, like India or Nigeria, are particularly encouraged to join us.
The "Live Better" project has been already launched in the first half of 2022. Please feel encouraged to join us!
Past and minor projects:
"Good Development" project:
The "Good Development" (GD) study was launched in the beginning of 2020 and halted soon after due to pandemics. In it, we targetted similar problems to the "Live Better" project.
We are currently describing our findings from the GD study. If you want to join our research efforts, please join the "Live Better" project.
"Happiness Meanders" project:
In the "happiness meanders" project we collected data across fifty countries to study family happiness and ideal levels of happiness. Additionally, we collected data on frequency of experienced and expressed emotions to study "societal emotional environments", and on cultural models of selfhoods to better understand the interaction between self-construals and well-being.
We are currrently describing our findings. No new datasets are needed.
"Smile" project:
In the "Smile" project, we collected data from 44 cultures to study social perception of smiling individuals. We found that in some cultures, smiling individuals are perceived as less intelligent than non-smiling ones. For more, please see this paper.
Additionally, we employed this dataset to study effects of gender (in)equality on social perception of men and women. We found that the more gender egalitarian a society is, the more favourable the perception of men is. For more, please see this paper.
This project is finished.
Other minor research efforts:
Apart from large cross-cultural studies, I carry out minor research into the sense of responsibility, into social effects of pathogen prevalence, and into gender equality.

This bonded pair is described as being sweet and faithful friends. They were found together as strays in Puerto Rico. Dora is 8-years old; Nico is 4.
Seeming to assume the backyard is an amusement park, it’s there that they love to run, romp together, investigate interesting scents, and chase squirrels! They seek loving attention from their foster family, don’t counter surf, and don’t jump on people or bark when there’s activity at the front door. They are both good with cats and kids, but these two should be the only dogs in the house.
The vet described Dora as “one of the sweetest, calmest dogs” he’s ever met. Dora likes to rest her head on foster dad’s lap for some petting time. On occasion, she will play with her stuffed animals. But one of her favorite activities is watching TV! Her favorite shows involve animals, All Creatures Great and Small and The Yorkshire Vet being her favorites. She will watch the entire program. She also watches cartoons and foster dad’s Zoom calls. Dora is considered the “motherly” type. So motherly in fact, that some have wondered if Nico might be her offspring. She has even been observed caring for kittens!
Nico is the more energetic of the two. He has a sweet disposition but is also bit timid and anxious at times. Dora helps to calm him with her motherly grooming and pampering. The vet found a bit of tendonitis and thickening in Nico’s left knee. One might notice a slight difference in his gait, but Nico surely doesn’t notice. Foster mom says he runs and plays normally. Nico is not a TV watcher. In fact, the television seems to put him to sleep.
Walking in the neighborhood is enjoyed by both dogs. Currently they are being walked separately. They could each use a bit of training and reassurance with this activity. If other dogs approach during walks, Dora pulls and does a bit of growling. Foster mom feels it’s more from fear than aggression. Then Nico will bark in response.
Both of them follow basic commands and observe, “settle,” when asked to do so. Foster mom feels they are accepting of training and eager to please.
Both dogs are crate trained. It’s been observed that they can be left in the house alone for 2-3 hours. For longer periods of time crates are used, mainly to keep Nico calm. Nights with Dora and Nico are peaceful. They sleep freely with no use of crates. The family that adopts these two will also be given their beds and their crates, which also include dog mattresses.
Their smiles tell it all. If you’d like to be greeted with wagging tails and enthusiastic smiles, Nico and Dora could be your “welcome home duo!”

Six months after the crowd-funding campaign wrapped-up successfully, Anarchists in the Boardroom was published last week and the crowd-sourced book tour has begun! These are my first reflections on this stage of the process. (And you can get your copies here, by the way).
So far, I’ve been lucky enough to have done four events around the country, with over 100 people coming together to talk about how their organisations could be more like people. I’ll be in Oxford and Leicester later this month. Currently there are further events coming together in York, Leeds, Manchester, Brighton… and more in Amsterdam and Berlin.
I’m feeling so honoured by the reception. And these conversations – gatherings of 15-20 people, usually a cafe or bar, feel like the perfect way to getting these ideas percolating.
A couple of things have jumped out at me already.
1. This conversation is getting ready to boil over.
While there is a common perception that our organisation’s are typically so far from being ‘more like people,’ there is a lot of energy out there to discuss what a new and different kind of organisation could look and feel like. A recurrent theme has been that these conversations have happened in pubs for years, but rarely with a sense of positive direction emerging. Now it seems like there is a growing sense, not just of disillusionment, but also of possibility for what we can all do to start changing our organisations for the better. Our networks are strengthening every day; it will be fascinating to see how all our new connections can help us to explore new approaches together.
2. People are actually DOING STUFF with these ideas already!
Since the launch, I’ve already had two messages from friends/ colleagues, who had begun to put elements of more like people thinking into practice. One has kicked off an ‘innovation working group’ (you’ll want to read Chapters 5/6 to understand the full significance of that), and another has ‘de-constructed’ her organisation’s old management structure (I’m still waiting to hear the specifics of what that means). There are currently about 220 copies of the book that have been circulating for up to 11 days. Needless to say, I’m pretty pleased with two stories like this already! In the chaos that I’ve discovered self-publishing can be, morelikepeople.com has been slightly delayed, but expect to have it online in the next week so we can start to bring more of these stories together.
3. ‘Organisations’ don’t want to touch this stuff… but the people in them do!
I’ve been crowd-sourcing this book tour – basically asking people who are keen, to get together a venue and a group, a bed for me to sleep on and a train ticket, and I’ll happily come talk about this stuff. I wanted to set the bar as low as I could, without putting myself further out of pocket for it (writing a book did a pretty thorough job of that already!). But what I’ve found, is that even with an incredibly minimal cost, people who have invited me – even those that work in voluntary organisations that have a remit to put on such events – are choosing to organise these events on their own time and dime. Which is both a massive honour, and a sign of how far our organisations still have to go, if they aren’t even able to host a conversation on some of these themes. I’ve said it before, but this organisational inability to take off the blinders to a lot of the debates that the rest of the world is having, is not going to help them address their own growing irrelevance. (Dudley CVS has been the exception, thanks to the efforts of Lorna Prescott!)
4. The answers are all around us!
For all the frustration and disillusionment that’s been expressed by a number of the folks who’ve taken part in each of these events, there have also been countless positive examples. The community centre manager who encourages his staff to come up with any new idea and get on and do it; the HIV support group who actively hire people with criminal records and who have experienced life’s hardest elements, de-prioritising traditional qualifications; the big national charity where all staff are now getting a half-day a week to pursue their own ideas, whatever they may be…
So in brief, it’s been an amazing start! I’m more sure than I’ve ever been that these conversations are desperately needed, and that all of us who are thinking about these things have ideas and experiences to share more widely, so others can give them a go. morelikepeople.com is not far off, but I’m still keeping track of the stuff people are tagging ‘morelikepeople’ and will be bringing it all together when the new website goes online.
Massive thanks to everyone who’s taken part thus far! I suspect we’re closer to the kinds of change we want to see than it can often feel…
Here’s Lorna’s Storify of the first event we did together in Birmingham, to get a bit of a taste of the kind of conversations we’ve been able to have lately.

The spread between the 10-year US Treasury bond yield and the federal funds rate is one of the 10 components of the Index of Leading Economic Indicators compiled monthly by the Conference Board. There is no trend in this series, which tends to cycle around zero. It is widely deemed to be one of the more accurate business-cycle indicators, predicting economic growth when it is positive and a recession when it is negative. The spread does tend to lead the y/y growth cycle in the Index of Coincident Economic Indicators.
Of course, the spread is also available on a daily basis. A more sensitive version of this leading indicator is the spread between the 10-year Treasury yield and the 2-year Treasury yield. That’s because the latter tends to anticipate moves in the federal funds rate, which is managed by the Fed. Currently, the spread is still positive but narrowing. It was 96bps on Friday, May 20, down from the most recent cyclical high of 266bps during December 31, 2013.
Interestingly, the spread has been narrowing as the Fed has been moving toward normalizing monetary policy. When QE was terminated at the end of October 2014, the spread was 185bps. It was down to 128bps on December 16, 2015, when the Fed hiked the federal funds rate by 25bps. It was down to 93bps following the release on Wednesday, May 18, of April’s FOMC minutes, which heightened expectations of a rate hike at the June 14-15 meeting of the FOMC.
The FOMC is tightening monetary policy because Fed officials believe that the US economy is showing more signs of sustainable growth with inflation rising back near their 2% target. Yet the yield curve is warning that the Fed’s moves could slow the US economy and halt the desired upturn in the inflation rate. Another possibility is that while the US economy might be strong enough to tolerate the normalization of US monetary policy, the global economy is much more vulnerable to Fed tightening moves.
It’s a small world after all, and it seems that national economies and financial markets have become more interdependent than ever as a result of globalization. Fed officials are still operating as though the US economy is relatively independent of the rest of the world. Until recent FOMC minutes, overseas economic and financial developments were almost never mentioned in the minutes. Nor was the foreign-exchange value of the dollar. The US economy may still be relatively independent, but that’s not to say that other national economies and their financial markets aren’t more dependent on the US and on Fed policy than ever before. Consider the following:
(1) World business-cycle indicators. The yield curve spread is often shown on a chart as a leading indicator for the y/y growth in US industrial production, which is one of the four components of the US Index of Coincident Economic Indicators. Given the size and importance of the US economy, it isn’t surprising to see that the US yield spread sometimes has been a good leading indicator of the growth rates of both global industrial production and the volume of world exports. It may be increasingly so now thanks to the ongoing globalization of national economies and financial markets.
(2) S&P 500 revenues & earnings. It also isn’t surprising to see that the growth rate of S&P 500 revenues per share is highly correlated with the growth rates of world industrial production and the volume of global exports. Roughly half of S&P 500 revenues comes from abroad. The global economic slowdown over the past couple of years certainly has weighed on US company revenues, which have weakened further due to the strong dollar since late 2014. In turn, the weakness in revenues and earnings has undoubtedly weighed on US companies’ spending in the US and overseas.
The yield curve spread on a weekly basis has been highly correlated with the y/y growth rates in both the forward revenues and forward earnings of the S&P 500. The recent narrowing of the spread isn’t a good omen for either of them.
(3) Central banks’ policy divergence. All of the above suggests that the US yield curve may be a good leading indicator not only for the US economy but also increasingly the world economy. The Fed’s monetary normalization has pushed up the 2-year Treasury yield from a 2014 low of 0.34% on October 15 to 0.91% on May 23. This reflects the relative strength of the US economy, particularly compared to the weakness in the Eurozone and Japan, which has forced both the ECB and BOJ to double down on their ultra-easy monetary policies, with more QE and negative interest rates.
The result has been that global fixed-income investors have been buying more US bonds because their yields exceed those available in the Eurozone and Japan. In other words, the short end of the yield curve may reflect the relative strength of the US economy and Fed tightening, while the longer end reflects weak global economic activity and easing by the other major central banks.
The divergence between the tightening of the Fed’s monetary policy and the ultra-easy policies of the ECB and BOJ has certainly contributed to the strength in the dollar and weakness in both the euro and yen since mid-2014. However, so far, the latter have failed to boost exports in the Eurozone and Japan, while the strong dollar has weighed on US exports.
Could it be that while the US economy can handle a gradual normalization of monetary policy in the US, the rest of the world cannot do so? That may be the message conveyed by the US yield curve.
(4) Kuroda’s kabuki. Japan’s economy certainly remains fragile. The BOJ adopted negative interest-rate policy (NIRP) at the end of January. The Japanese 10-year government bond yield was -0.10% on May 23. Yet the yen is 15% above last year’s low on June 5. On May 23, we learned that Japan’s flash M-PMI fell for the fifth consecutive month in May to 47.6, the lowest since December 2012. We also learned that Japan’s exports (in yen) fell 9.5% y/y during April to the lowest since January 2014. Imports plummeted 20.0% to the lowest since December 2010!
(5) Draghi’s drag. The ECB first introduced NIRP on June 5, 2014. The German 10-year government bond yield was only 0.18% on May 23. Yet the Eurozone’s industrial production rose just 0.2% over the 12 months through March. Just as frustrating for the ECB is that the CPI inflation rate remains just below zero. It was just -0.2% y/y during April, according to the flash estimate, while the core rate was 0.7%.

In addition to earned income, another important source of purchasing power for consumers is government benefits. We can see this by subtracting US federal government spending on goods and services as reported in nominal GDP from total federal government spending as reported by the US Treasury. The difference is federal government spending on income redistribution through the various entitlement programs. Here are some observations:
(1) GDP vs. benefits spending. Federal government spending on goods and services as measured in the nominal GDP accounts has been essentially flat around $1.25 trillion (at an annualized rate) since 2010. Government spending on benefits to persons was relatively flat at a record high of about $2.25 trillion from 2009-2013. Over the past two years, it has risen 11.9% to a record $2.50 trillion.
(2) Benefits prevailing. Federal government spending on income redistribution has soared from just 10% of total federal spending right before President Johnson’s Great Society programs were passed (1964-1965) to 67% currently. This percentage includes so-called tax expenditures like the Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC), which is a refundable tax credit for low- to moderate-income working individuals and couples, particularly those with children.
The EITC is included in an outlays category called “Income Security” along with the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, Supplemental Security Income, unemployment compensation, family support and foster care, and child nutrition.
(3) Impact on shopping. Of course, not all of the government benefits are paid in cash to beneficiaries. Medicaid and Medicare expenses are paid directly by the government to health care providers. However, this frees up income received by beneficiaries either from earnings or from cash benefits such as Social Security to spend on goods and services other than health care.
The sum of federal government outlays on income redistribution and labor compensation (wages, salaries, and supplements) rose to a record $12.4 trillion (at an annual rate) during Q1. That’s up 4.5% y/y.
The sum of the cash (or near-cash) benefits paid by Social Security and Income Security programs plus labor compensation rose to a record $11.3 trillion during Q1, up 4.1% y/y.
In other words, consumers have lots of purchasing power provided by earned income and by federal government income redistribution programs.

In the eternal battle between the forces of light and the forces of darkness, I prefer the light side. I tend to be an optimist. However, in recent years, my optimism has been focused on the outlook for the US. I’m less enthusiastic about the Eurozone and Japan. In general, I’m not a big fan of emerging economies, particularly China. As a result, I have recommended a “Stay Home” investment strategy as opposed to the “Go Global” alternative.
On the dark side, I’ve written often about the credit excesses that have fueled excess capacity in China, which has to be the world’s biggest bubble ever. I was early in detecting the country’s capital outflows problem. I would like the Chinese authorities to know that no one else at Yardeni Research has contributed to my critical analyses of the country. But I will continue to write the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth, though it is becoming increasingly dangerous to do so, especially for economists in China. The 5/3 WSJ included an article titled “China Presses Economists to Brighten Their Outlooks.” It ominously reported the following:
Chinese authorities are training their sights on a new set of targets: economists, analysts and business reporters with gloomy views on the country’s economy. Securities regulators, media censors and other government officials have issued verbal warnings to commentators whose public remarks on the economy are out of step with the government’s upbeat statements, according to government officials and commentators with knowledge of the matter.
The stepped-up censorship, many inside and outside the ruling Communist Party say, represents an effort by China’s leadership to quell growing concerns about the country’s economic prospects as it experiences a prolonged slowdown in growth. As more citizens try to take money out of the country, officials say, regulators and censors are trying to foster an environment of what party officials have dubbed "zhengnengliang," or "positive energy."
China’s President Xi Jinping seems to long for the glory days of Chairman Mao. He launched an anti-corruption campaign in 2012. It increasingly seems aimed at vanquishing his foes and at consolidating his power. His latest campaign aims to galvanize China around threats to national security. In recent weeks, the government has called for vigilance against spies. Even in the schools, children are playing games such as “Spot the Spy.” In mid-April, there was the first-ever National Security Education Day. Volunteers in Beijing handed out thousands of umbrellas imprinted with a hotline for reporting any perceived risks.
The accuracy and credibility of Chinese economic data have never been very good. Now they could get much worse. The official M-PMI may be sent to the countryside for a reeducation campaign. It edged down from 50.2 during March to 50.1 during April. It may have to be shot, or at least disappear, if it drops below 50.0 this month. Another candidate for summary execution is China’s monthly series on railways freight traffic. The series, which isn’t adjusted for seasonality, rebounded in March, offsetting most of February’s drop; but its 12-month average is down 17% from its record high on January 2014 and the lowest since November 2009.
By the way, FRB-Dallas Fed President Kaplan should probably watch his back too. In a recent speech, he warned:
[W]e are closely watching China, given its size and importance to world GDP growth … We estimate that [China’s GDP] growth rate will slow to 6.5 percent in 2016 and likely trend lower in subsequent years. China is dealing with high levels of overcapacity (particularly in state-owned enterprises), high levels of debt and an aging workforce. In addition, it has embarked on [what is] likely to be a very difficult [economic] transition.
I have instructed my colleagues that in the event of my disappearance, they should carry on without me and write only upbeat stories about China.

Today's contest between the Dodgers and the Padres pits The Sharp Model's 48th ranked SP (Yu Darvish) against the 7th ranked SP (Clayton Kershaw). The rundown on Darvish tells us that he leans on his cut-fastball 35.5% of the time and keeps hitters off balance with a slider (18.1%). Kershaw is a four-seam guy (40.3%) who brings a slider as his most-trusted secondary offering. Advanced stats (namely, FIP) tell us that Darvish deserves something like a 3.31 ERA, compared to his actual ERA of 3.10. On that front, Kershaw's ERA sits at 2.28 and his FIP at 2.57.
Yu Darvish's 2414 rpm fastball spin rate this year is in the 89th percentile among SPs.
Manny Machado has been lucky this year, posting a .377 wOBA despite The Sharp Model X estimating his true talent level to be .342 — a .035 discrepancy.
The San Diego Padres bullpen grades out as the 7th-best in the game, per The Sharp Model.
Clayton Kershaw has been given less leash than the average pitcher this year, throwing 7.1 fewer adjusted pitches-per-game than the average pitcher.
Miguel Vargas has primarily hit in the back-half of the batting order this season (91% of the time), but he is projected to bat 5th on the lineup card in this game.
Joey Gallo has a high pull rate on his flyballs (40.8% — 99th percentile) and will be challenged by the game's 9th-deepest RF fences today.
The Los Angeles Dodgers have hit the Run Line in 63 of their last 100 games (+23.20 Units / 19% ROI)
The San Diego Padres have hit the 1st Five Innings (F5) Total Under in 74 of their last 145 games (+8.75 Units / 6% ROI)
Manny Machado has hit the Total Bases Over in 31 of his last 53 games (+9.20 Units / 15% ROI)

CLEMSON – A seasoned educator and Cooperative Extension Service professional has been tapped to lead Clemson University’s College of Agriculture, Forestry and Life Science’s Animal and Veterinary Sciences Department.
Charles F. Rosenkrans Jr. comes to Clemson from the University of Arkansas. He starts August 15. As department chair, Rosenkrans said he plans to work with CAFLS students, faculty, staff and Clemson Extension agents to continue advancing the department and programs.
“I plan to get to know the students, faculty and staff right off the bat,” Rosenkrans said. “I have deep respect for people at Clemson and I want to work with them to improve the already excellent programs in the department.”
Rosenkrans wants to build on the “excellent” reputation the department has in genetics and physiology.
“The Clemson AVS department historically has been a leader in genetics and physiology research,” he said. “The undergraduate program is phenomenal. I want to help improve the doctoral and Extension programs.”
Rosenkrans’ father was an Extension specialist at the University of Missouri. His father started with the Cooperative Extension Service as a 4-H agent before moving to county agent and, finally, as a livestock specialist before he retired.
“I grew up around the Cooperative Extension Service,” Rosenkrans said. “I know what a valuable resource this is and I want to work with Extension agents out in the counties and researchers at the Research and Education Centers to learn what we can do to better help people living in South Carolina.”
Rosenkrans was one of about 40 people who applied for the position.
“I’m excited to have a person of Dr. Rosenkrans’ talent, skills and experience to be our next chair of the Department of Animal and Veterinary Sciences,” said Keith Belli, dean and associate vice president of CAFLS and Public Service and Agriculture. “He brings a great deal of enthusiasm and great ideas to help AVS achieve its goals as one of our critical departments in CAFLS.”
Joining Rosenkrans in his move to Clemson will be his wife, Diana Johnson. They have two daughters, Sarah, who lives in West Virginia and Lelia, who will be starting medical school at the University of Arkansas in Little Rock in August.
While at the University of Arkansas, Rosenkrans was director and dean’s fellow of the Bumpers College Honors Program, as well as graduate program coordinator and professor in the Department of Animal Sciences. He graduated from Kansas State University with a doctorate in animal science. He earned master’s and bachelor’s degrees in animal science from the University of Missouri.

Microsoft is working on a new collaborate platform under the Skype umbrella called Teams. I was able to reveal a bit more information about the product a few weeks back and since then, I have obtained a couple more bits of documentation and videos that give us a nearly complete look at the platform.
The platform is organized by teams and channels with teams being the top of the hierarchy and channels being the sub-categories for that team. It is possible to favorite a channel so that it is always present and hide them if needed as well.
When you create a team, you invite co-workers by their email address and you also have the ability to add by security groups too, which makes it faster than adding users individually for large groups. Once the team is created, you then can add new channels to organize the grouping; what is not known is if a user has to join a team or if they are automatically added if you provide their email. I suspect they have to accept the invite as automatically adding users to a team would quickly increase the noise at a personal level.
In a channel, conversations are threaded individually, making it easier to control the flow of conversation from becoming tangled and disjointed. Users also have the ability to bookmark a thread and save it to their favorites folder and Skype Teams also support “@” mentions to flag a specific user to a thread.
Files can be embedded in a chat and it makes collaboration much easier. By clicking on a file, it opens up a document editor with the chat thread next to the document with everyone in the thread able to interact and work on the content together.
Seeing as this is a Skype platform that is known for video group chats, this functionality is built directly into the tool. By clicking the camera icon on a thread, you can open up a group chat and then quickly invite those people in the thread or the entire team in the channel to a conversation. The goal of this feature is to make communicating with those working directly on a file or chatting in a thread easier than the traditional Skype method of creating a new chat room every time you need to host a conference call.
Group calls enables the ability to share your screen and documents as well; much like a typical Skype call. Nothing overly complicated about this feature but it opens up a faster communication medium when the need arises. One befit of using the Skype Teams platform is that anyone on your team can see when a call is on-going and if they would like, can join in at any time.
One of the advantages Skype Teams has over competitors is the native integration with Office 365. Your calendar, OneDrive and even SharePoint files can all be accessed and share from inside the application as well.
Microsoft isn’t taking any chances with Skype Teams and knows that they have to compete with Slack at all avenues of collaboration. The company is currently testing the app in private beta as they iron out the last features and fix bugs; notifications aren’t working properly. In the near future, they will expand the beta program with an expected full release sometime early next year as a new feature for users who subscribe to Office 365.

Lipsitz, Ponterio & Comerford had the opportunity to sit down with Eugene Jackson, a former employee of Durez Plastics. Gene talked about the years he spent fighting in the Korean War and the jobs he held upon his return to North Tonawanda.
Eugene Jackson was born in 1931 and raised in North Tonawanda. As a young man, he had dreams of enlisting in the Army, but his mother discouraged him from doing so. Her brother lost his leg in World War II, and she was terrified of what might happen to her son. In July 1952, shortly after Gene turned twenty one, he was drafted into the Army. In 1953, he received orders to serve in Korea. Once he arrived there, he was thankful that he had not enlisted sooner. As he recalls, “This war was just awful. It was trench warfare. I remember trenches spanning nearly 155 miles. That is most of Korea, if you ask me. It was just terrible what some of these men experienced. I served in the war during the tail end of it, and I got lucky and lived through it.” The war in Korea lasted three years and one month, and Gene served until the troops were sent home in February 1954.
Shortly after Gene returned to North Tonawanda, his parents moved to Long Beach, California. Gene, on the other hand, decided to stay in North Tonawanda because his friends were there. Gene worked at Niagara Plate on River Road, his first job after he returned from Korea. He worked there for about four months and then received an employment opportunity at Remington Rand, a union shop that manufactured filing cabinets. While at Remington, Gene worked nights as a bartender at El Paul’s on Military Road. Mr. Davies, a regular at El Paul’s, convinced Gene to apply at Durez Plastics. In 1957, he was hired to work in the warehouse at Durez.
Gene has fond memories of working at Durez. “Overall, Durez was a good place to work because it was an overtime plant. You could work twelve hours a day for fourteen hours pay. They made it worth your while. I always wanted to work six days a week because the pay was good.” Gene worked in the warehouse until the day he retired, October 1, 1986.
Gene is a member of the Niagara County Sportsmen’s Association and enjoys target shooting in his free time.

This story, the fifth in a series, starts on day eleven of our John Muir Trail (JMT) hike of 2018. It’s of collection of grumblings, disenchanted anticipation, childish breakdowns, and uncharitable cruelty happening over a week, concluding in redemption.
A radiant sunrise woke me up at Evolution Lake, about a week and a half into our hike, bestowing a benevolent and glorious morning, a contradiction to the storm we endured the day before. My husband and I had slept in because we needed to dry out our gear after the onslaught of wind and bombardment of rain. Luckily, the sun was ready to meet the challenge of returning our equipment back to order. Rather than accept the day for the splendidness that it was, I recalled a vexatious night and found myself still annoyed. Why is it that some days you just soak it all in and enjoy an experience for what it is, and other days you seem to find fault with everything?
I awoke in the middle of the night having to pee. It happens, and when nature calls, one can try to ignore the summons, but at some point, you have no choice but to comply. The particular campsite that we chose made the prospect of having to surrender to a mid-night urge even more unpleasant. The only place we could use as a privy area was quite a distance off, across the trail and up the adjacent mountain. I suppose you could have called it a large hill, but it more resembled a ridge. The landscape ascended abruptly from the trail with a few disruptions of sandy benches, some obscured with shrubbery, which created a scattering of acceptable spots.
We set up camp at Evolution Lake amid a storm, but the sun made an appearance and presented us with a marvelous sunset.
My pStyle, a female urinary device that allows me to relieve myself without having to altogether drop my drawers, was missing. Joe said he had brought it down from our bathroom spot before we went to bed, but I couldn’t find it (yes, we went together). I guessed we had left it up on the menacing bank, the only place where we could have privacy and adhere to Leave No Trace principles. In the middle of the night, I walked all the way up that steep nightmare to go look for it, headlamp aimed hoping not to see any shining eyes looking back at me. It wasn’t there. I got back to the tent and told Joe that I wasn’t able to find it, and he said he thought he swore brought it down. However, it wasn’t where I saw it last, and it wasn’t with the rest of my latrine kit.
I was panicking, irrationally. It is not a critical piece of gear, the FUD (female urinary device) was more of a luxury. I could have simply just continued on the remainder of the hike pulling my pants to my ankles every time I had to tinkle, but the thought of having to inconvenience myself in that fashion made me irate. Fumbling around the tent, disturbing any chance of a restful slumber for my poor husband, I happened to lift up my mattress, and there it was. I was intensely agitated, pissed off really. I yelled at Joe for not putting my stuff back where it belonged; however, in retrospect, I realize that I was the one to blame.
One should not go into the backcountry expecting someone else to be responsible for your own gear. You bring it in, you keep track of it, and you bring it out. The concept is that simple, even necessary.
After getting a late start, around 10:00 am, we sojourned along on a pretty uneventful hike until we reached our target camping location for the night. The trek was mostly all downhill, and we just trudged on to make the miles we needed so that we could arrive at Muir Trail Ranch (MTR) for our resupply the next day.
Even with leaving late, we were able to hit our mark. We actually made it a little farther than planned. We decided to stay on the traditional path of the JMT rather than take the alternate route for the infamous Evolution Creek crossing. It was later in the season, a drier one with no lingering snow, and the water crossings we encountered so far were not treacherous. If we had faced a raging, abyssal torrent of water when we reached Evolution Creek, we would have simply just turned back to travel through the Evolution Meadow, avoiding the hazardous ford.
There were supposed to be a few campsites along this route before the creek crossing; however, as we passed two of them, they did not tempt either of us. We continued on until we came upon a tiny little, almost obscure, sign off the left side of the trail atop a 4×4 post that read ‘STOCK CAMP.’ Next to that sign was a not-so-well-traveled path heading back into the trees. Following that little path, we ventured back well into the woods where we found the stock camp. There was a decent firepit fashioned from nearby stones, a home to furry little rodents darting in and out of the rocks. In addition to potentially problematic gnawing critters, there were copious remnants of horse dung that were strewn about the area. So, we decided we would wander farther back into the wood and try to get closer to the creek that ran mostly parallel to the trail. It was only when we almost hit the creek that we found a secluded campsite behind the stock camp. There was nobody camping anywhere in the area, we were well hidden from the trail; we could have walked around naked if we wanted to. Areas to use as privies were bountiful, after all, we were not too far from horse-crap central. Finally! No problem finding privacy to take care of business.
It had threatened to rain all throughout the day, thunder resonated in the distance, but we lucked out, and we were spared from being on the receiving end of another storm. It was a miracle! We rejoiced in not having to brave the elements and endure relentless winds, inundating rain, or battering hail.
Despite some grumbling thunder and lightning periodically lighting up the sky, the evening was mostly uneventful and peaceful. We awoke to air thick with smoke and thought it could have been from a campfire nearby. As we began hiking, it started to get denser, obscuring the looming mountains, and stinging our nostrils. It was a bit unnerving not knowing if we were walking into a new fire that could have been sparked by some lightning last night. Yesterday, we had already passed the McClure Meadow ranger station. It would be a while until we came upon another one to gather any updated information on fires burning in the area.
We awoke at our campsite near Evolution Meadow to smoke filling the sky.

We enter the John Muir Wilderness, just past Piute Creek, and smoke still fills the air.
As we proceeded down into Goddard Canyon where the trail met the San Joaquin River, the corridor along the valley started to take on a murky, almost opaque, appearance. The heavy air shrouded the peaks and ridges in the distance, and breathing became more laborious than it already should have been. My eyes started to water and my throat, with the increased number of breaths, felt dry and scratchy as if I had swallowed sand. I drank some water, hoping to relieve the discomfort; however, it did very little to soothe the irritation. The choking and coughing didn’t help.
The smokiness persisted the entire way as we exited Kings Canyon National Park and entered the John Muir Wilderness. Unable to fit all of the food in our bear canisters to last all the way to Vermilion Valley Resort, we had sent resupply packages to MTR. Hopefully, they would be there waiting for us. By this point, I was also looking forward to some ‘civilization,’ so a stop at the ranch was a highly anticipated diversion.
The trek to MTR from Evolution Meadow thankfully was mostly downhill. At first, after leaving our campsite, the terrain was gentle enough. Even so, my legs and feet were burning, and they didn’t want to work. Joe got a knot in his calf and finally joined me in the club of gastrocnemius confundus (a term I coined for burning cramping calves). I was tired of being the only one who had issues with their lower extremities. The fact that someone else was sharing in my misery selfishly gave me some comfort.
I’ve had issues in the past that nearly put an end to my hiking endeavors. Unbeknownst to me at the time, I had Morton’s Neuromas that caused excruciating pain when I would hike any considerable distances. This affliction was the catalyst for my demise during a 2015 Appalachian Trail Thru-hike attempt. I had taken a fall, injured my hip, and ultimately ended up fracturing my calcaneus (aka heel bone).
After healing from that injury, I attempted to hike the John Muir Trail later that year. However, an unfortunate bout of Acute Mountain Sickness (altitude sickness) experienced by a member of my hiking party, in addition to continuing neuroma issues, brought that effort to a halt.
I spent the next year (2016) having surgeries in both of my feet. I lost the entire summer and fall recovering from a dissection of those loathsome neuromas in conjunction with metatarsal osteotomies.
Although I now can backpack without incapacitating pain, I am not totally free of discomfort. I have some residual nerve sensitivities that cause burning as if searing daggers were being plunged into the balls of my feet. I also have tight ankles and as a result, poor dorsiflexion, which in turn causes tight calves and ultimately cramping, especially going uphill. These are issues that now plague me, they don’t stop me but sometimes can create a world of despair.
We finally reached the junction for the trail to Florence Lake and Muir Trail Ranch (MTR), leaving only a 1.5-mile segment to MTR. The path was full of horse crap, it felt like playing a game of Frogger, except instead of trying to land on a log, we did all we could to avoid the landmines. And like the last 1.9-mile push to the summit during 2017’s Mt. Whitney odyssey, the side-trail to MTR felt like it was one of the more drawn out segments we had ever hiked.
The chaos and disorder revived memories of obnoxious train and subway commutes to my old job in New York City, where courtesy rarely existed, and self-interest was paramount.
Arriving at the ranch, we joined the queue of backpackers retrieving their prized parcels. Once we were handed our 5-gallon bucket (used to safely endure the journey from the post office, across Florence Lake, then another 5 miles on horses and/or off-road vehicles, plus hungry critters), we proceeded to the area reserved for us all to sort through our goodies. Apparently, as we had seen in the previous days, some storms had rolled through one after the other. The ground was soaked, saturated to the point where the water had nowhere to go, and the area where we were corralled was one large mushy mud pit. The earth gave way underfoot just like when you step in a pile of dog poop. I could have sworn I smelled poop, perhaps the sensation created a phantom olfactory response.
Throngs of backpackers balanced on wooden planks and unloaded their goods on cluttered tables, vying for space to sort through their supplies. They were all strategically trying to organize them without having them fall into the mucky sludge. I waited my turn until a spot was vacated and proceeded to play the game of shuffle and balance.
There was a ‘power station’ on the side of the resupply storage shed where you could plug in your electronics for recharge. The charging station was a Rubbermaid bin perched on top of a wooden bench, straddling a puddle. It contained several entangled power strips plugged into a multi-receptacle extension cord that snaked out of the side of the shed. In order to reach the lid to expose the electrified menagerie of cameras, cell phones, and batteries, you had to step on a wooden plank laid across the puddle surrounding the bench. Taking my chances, I plugged my phone into the only remaining outlet. I hoped that the rubber soles on the bottom of my boots would protect me from being electrocuted.
The chaos and disorder revived memories of obnoxious train and subway commutes to my old job in New York City, where courtesy rarely existed, and self-interest was paramount. The scurrying about of human beings like ants swarming through meandering tunnels burrowed beneath the ground. The jockeying for position to be the first one on and the first ones off the rail cars. The smell of too many bodies jammed in hot confined spaces induced flashbacks that didn’t belong in the backcountry of the Sierra Nevada.
The ranch offers ‘short-stay’ accommodations. However, we learned that during peak JMT hiking season, unless you plan ahead and make a reservation, the chances of procuring a place to stay at the ranch are nearly impossible. No reservation means no meals, no amenities, and no place to mingle in a ‘civilized’ atmosphere. The resupply services are limited to having ranch staff haul your bucket from the Post Office, storing it, and handing it over when you arrive (for a fee proportionate to the effort).
They emanated the smell of soap and machine-washed clothes. I don’t know why I was annoyed, but I was. Perhaps it was the fact that they smelled so good and we reeked. Or maybe it was a combination of their rudeness and my envy.
I was disgusted by the whole MTR experience since I was looking forward to some respite and hopefully some hospitality, but there was none. This was my fault; I accept full responsibility. I could have made a reservation, but after our experience in 2017 having to exit at Shepherd Pass, I was hesitant to do so. That year we were running behind, and we were not going to make our resupply rendezvous, so we ended up exiting at the dreaded pass. Also, I was under the impression that this place was a ‘backpacker’s haven.’ However, as is the case when you idealize something in your mind, you’ll find that things aren’t as gratifying as you expected. Regardless, between the disappointing blow and the frenzy-induced anxiety, it was an experience I would not wish to repeat.
Since there was no place to stay on the ranch grounds, we needed to hike another half mile to find a tent site. The only good part about being there was being able to offload our garbage. We found a mostly secluded campsite near the South Fork San Joaquin River. It was an ideal place to take a zero day to rest and perform some housekeeping chores. I say ”mostly” because although we thought that we were in a hidden location, a group of young people intruded into our campsite while we were eating dinner. They hiked straight through as if we weren’t there.
We slept in the next morning until 8:30 am. Once we wiped the cobwebs from our eyes, we had coffee and breakfast skillet wrapped in a tortilla. Both of us took a dip in the icy cold water washing off the stench from the past few days, and did laundry, washing every article of clothing we had with us.
After doing all the housekeeping chores through the day, I started sweating, and my pits stunk again! I rubbed some hand sanitizer on them, hoping that would kill the obnoxious smell.
We thought we were alone and were in our underwear when a group of kids came traipsing through. Joe and I dove into the tent to avoid being seen as the kids seem to have no regard for privacy and walked right through our site although the trail ran well below it. I exclaimed we were naked in the tent and they didn’t seem to care. Then shortly after, some lady came through while I went to the river for some water (in my underwear) and she walked right past Joe in his underwear. He said “”Hello!””
These ‘visits’ annoyed me. They weren’t from filthy backpackers like us, the infiltrators were ranch guests who were out for a day hike, stroll, whatever you want to call it. They emanated the smell of soap and machine-washed clothes. I don’t know why I was annoyed, but I was. Perhaps it was the fact that they smelled so good and we reeked. Or maybe it was a combination of their rudeness and my envy.
After loading up our packs with the heft of our newly crammed bear cans, we started our 6-mile ascent along a whole lot of steep trail to the next campsite. The total elevation gain up to Selden Pass was 2,800 feet, but we were planning on stopping somewhere near Sallie Keys Lakes, about 1.5 miles shy of the pass.
A Guthook app graph depicting the elevation profile of the northbound climb out of MTR back to the JMT (click to enlarge)
The climb out from MTR back to the JMT was painfully arduous. As was customary for our morning start ascending up some dreadful incline, my calves started to ache. The ache then graduated to wrenching cramps that felt like the muscle was tearing away from the bone. I had to stop frequently to take a breather and try to loosen the over-taught tissues. The trail had a grade of 902.6 feet/mile, and we were thankful that we only had to labor up .9 miles; however, it seemed to never end. We struggled up short, cruel switchbacks, deliberately stepping to avoid piles of fly-ridden horse crap. The stink wafted around us like a toxic fog and continued to worsen as the air heated up. I sympathized with the wretched beasts who left their marks, thinking how frightful it probably was to go down this escarpment. At some points, I had to use all the strength I had in my upper body, leaning on my poles, to try to get some momentum to take another step. My pack felt like it weighed a ton and pressed down on me like a bag of cement; the weight of it probably not too far off. Of course, this is an exaggeration, my pack only weighed little more than half of that.
One should not go into the backcountry expecting someone else to be responsible for your own gear. You bring it in, you keep track of it, and you bring it out. The concept is that simple, even necessary.
Once we hit the main trail, the gradient wasn’t as awful, it became ‘not as steep,’ dropping down to a lesser unpleasant 642 feet/mile, but the climb was far from being over. We had scaled switchback after switchback the entire time, across an open, exposed, Manzanita-covered mountainside that had very little shade. The combination of heat and effort made it feel like, in the end, we had traveled 10 miles, but in reality, we only did 5.7.
The constant uphill grind and the carrying of a cumbersome pack had taken their toll. In addition to the debilitating calf pain, I also now had knees that were plaguing me. Every step felt like I had knives piercing into the joints behind my kneecaps. The day turned out to be absolutely grueling, and I needed some relief.
Already feeling fatigued, I asked my husband to grab the Advil out of my inaccessible top pouch. I was too tired to take the pack off and have to put it back on again, that sometimes becomes a burden in itself. I explained to him that the bottle of Vitamin-I (the hiker’s nickname for Advil) was inside my homemade mylar cozy (a pouch used to keep food hot while cooking/eating on the trail). He unzippered the compartment on top of my pack, reached inside and fumbled around, and then I heard a sharp rip. However, it wasn’t the rip of the Velcro used to keep the pouch closed.
I knew immediately what had happened, but still asked the question, “Did you just rip my cozy?”
“Uh, yeah,” replied Joe reluctantly.
Irrational me lashed out again, I completely lost it in another breakdown. I threw my pack down on the ground like a 5-year old having a tantrum and then lambasted Joe. Poor Joe. All he tried to do was help me, and there I was berating him to no end. Again, it was no big deal, nothing that couldn’t be fixed. But my physical state took over my brain, and I acted like a crazed maniac. To add to the charade, I plopped down onto the ground, crying with head in hands, and wailed, “Leave me here. Just leave me here to die. I don’t care. Just go and leave me here.”
Joe called my bluff, picked up my pack, and proceeded to continue up the trail. I yelled, “Why are you taking my pack?”
“You have the stove in there,” he bellowed back.
Joe, the composed one, struck a chord. I thought to myself, “Wait! I need the stove!” It was then that I realized that I was making no sense at all. If I was going to resign myself to die out there alone, why would I need the stove? I begrudgingly begged him to come back, and I put on my pack, pouty face and all, and we both continued up the trail.
After a short time, I felt so bad about my behavior, I apologized to Joe profusely.
This is what sometimes happens when you push yourself to limits you never thought you could. Your body agonizes with the strain of the activity you’re forcing upon it, and your mind just goes haywire. It almost felt like I was possessed, and I was embarrassed. Good thing we were alone and there was no one else on the trail with us that day! Later on, Joe admitted that he was ready to carry my pack for me. Talk about feeling like a complete jerk! I was ashamed. It’s times like these when I realize that my husband is genuinely a good egg, and I’m blessed to have him.
As we continued our ascent and neared Sallie Keys Lakes, we contemplated going over Selden Pass just to lessen the burden of the next day’s hike. It was about 2 pm, and the climb up Selden and down the other side was going to push us past our limits. We decided to stop at the far end of Sallie Keys Lakes and wait until the next morning. This would allow us to have enough energy and stamina to make the planned 8.8-mile hike the next day, the majority of it downhill. Downhill hikes do not bode well for me at all due to the pounding my feet take.
Something must be understood about the distances we hike daily. To the standard thru-hiker, the mileage sounds nominal, almost absurd, but we are lazy hikers. In addition to the physical challenges my asshole feet will sometimes present, we don’t like waking up before the crack of dawn. We enjoy taking our time to really be in the moment, soak in the experience. With that being said, anyone who has performed any long-distance hike can appreciate that pushing your body day-after-day can sometimes make even a single mile seem endless.
Two lakes make up the ‘Sallie Keys Lakes,’ connected by an isthmus that had a relatively easy-to-cross stream running through it, binding the eastern and western bodies of water together. This particular year, there wasn’t a lot of water. However, we could see that if we had come through this area the previous year (2017), crossing this isthmus could have been difficult.
We found a flat sandy spot at the second lake on a bluff overlooking the water. The overlook created some difficulty getting water because of the abrupt drop-off from the rocks we were perched upon. However, the view was stunning, almost transcendent.
Brilliant green trees against the vivid blue of the sky and the pale silvery granite created a stark contrast between the ephemeral vibrant living, the eternal ether, and prehistoric earth. It reminded me that what may feel everlasting for a human being, is only an instant in the grand scheme of things.
The sun rises, creating a mirror image on the glass-like waters of one of the Sallie Keys Lakes.
It was windy, which at first, we didn’t take any notice of, but as we proceeded to put up the tent, it presented some challenges. We were able to keep the tent from blowing away, but as we started to unload our gear into the tent, we noticed a considerable chill from the whipping air.
Joe went to get water to prepare for the evening’s dinner while I started to set up our home for the night. While I was doing so, I could feel some particles swirling around the tent. Some of them ended up in my mouth as I wrapped my lips around the valve to inflate the sleeping pads. I looked around and noticed a layer of dust that coated everything in the tent; I passed my hand over the floor of the tent only to have it covered with grit. The sandy dirt that surrounded the area was infiltrating our shelter, and there was nothing to be done about it.
Luckily the wind died down and didn’t persist through the night; however, the morning was chilly, very chilly. The sounds of ducks in the lake woke me up, but we remained in our warm sleeping bags for a while just so we could keep warm. We didn’t leave the campsite until about 9:06 am.
The day started with another climb, this time up and over Selden Pass. The traverse turned out to be relatively mild and astonishingly quick for a ‘pass.’ Even so, we took it slowly so I could stop a few times to stretch my calves and shake them out. Thankfully, pausing to immediately address those tightening muscles paid off because they seemed to loosen up throughout the day, allowing me to enjoy the hike without any lamentation.
Once over the pass, we were greeted by the picturesque scenery of Marie Lake. The weather was absolutely delightful, not a cloud in the sky. I imagine the view of the lakes after Muir Pass would have been just as beautiful if it weren’t so ugly that day.
Again, the juxtaposition of elements created a tapestry of visual stimuli. A bright azure firmament watched over an irregularly shaped cobalt lake, nestled among verdant splashes sprawled across gray stone. Peaks jutted up disrupting rolling hills, reaching higher and higher as the landscape extended out into the distance.
Marie Lake, as viewed from Selden Pass, is one of the gems of the Sierra on the John Muir Trail that invokes feelings of awe.
It was also the first day in a while where the sky wasn’t filled with smoke. I was amazed at how blue the sky looked. We don’t see blue skies in the east like you do high in the mountains of the Sierra. Have you ever flown in an airplane and looked out of the window? Have you ever looked up from that window, up past the troposphere, towards the substratosphere? If you have, this is the only way I can equate how deep the color of the sky was compared to what we’re usually accustomed to. ‘Sky’ is not the term that adequately describes the realm above our heads in the domain of geological giants, ‘heavens’ is more appropriate.
The entire trek after the pass was a gentle downhill making our target of 8.8 miles easier than I thought it would have been. It still took us almost 6 hours to complete thanks to our lackadaisical attitudes about ‘getting it done.’ We stopped for several breaks, including a 30-minute interlude on the shore of Bear Creek where we stopped to appreciate the sound of water moving sinuously across rocks jutting above the surface.
Eventually, we concluded the day’s business and set up camp again. All in all, we had a prosperous day, drama and obscenity free.
The Long and Winding Non-Road
The next morning was frigid but clear; there was no sign of smoke and no wind to exacerbate the chill. My hands were frozen from washing a few items of clothing, so we were yet again delayed in setting off. I had to wait a while for my useless fingers to become functional so we could pack up.
This day was the day we were planning to arrive at Vermilion Valley Resort (VVR) on Edison Lake. VVR was a popular resupply point for JMT hikers, proclaimed to be a rustic paradise treasured by many.
As usual, the first part of the hike was uphill, and my calves were uncooperative as usual.
It had also started to get hot, which I found perplexing because in one moment I was freezing and then the next I was sweating. Backpacking can be a world of extremes, changing in the blink of an eye.
As we progressed, the terrain leveled out for a while wandering through a refreshing forest, but then came the switchbacks from hell. They were not as tough by any means as the Golden Staircase was, but they were ridiculously LONG and seemed to go on forever down a dreadfully steep mountain. I suppose it was better to have drawn-out switchbacks. That type of terrain made for a less extreme descent than to have short, sharp declines that used more energy to keep from skidding down.
On the way down, we had met up with an oncoming pack train luckily before we reached the meat of the switchbacks. There were spots on a few switchbacks where there would have been nowhere to go to let a train of 7 pack horses go by. The trail was so narrow. On one side you had a slope so steep that you couldn’t possibly have moved off to the path to let a mule loaded with a pannier go by. Then on the other side, a drop-off comprised of loose, crumbly soil that wouldn’t allow for anyone to get any footing without sliding down to the next switchback.
The fact that someone else was sharing in my misery selfishly gave me some comfort.
The further down the switchbacks we got, the hikers we met seemed blissfully optimistic. However, those we had seen nearer the top definitely seemed they had been through some shit. There was one guy who was the exception. He was almost all the way to the top by 10:30-ish and I had asked him if he came from VVR and he said he had. That means that he made it up the switchbacks in one hour because the Edison Lake Ferry drops hikers off around 9:30 am. Holy wow!
Joe had remarked, “Enjoy!” to a couple of ladies hiking up the switchbacks, and one of them said, “You’re a funny guy!”
The ground leveled out again for a while though some hot, dense jungle-like forest before more short switchbacks resumed.
Feeling drained and overheated, we took about an hour break just short of the trail to VVR. We refreshed ourselves with cool water from Mono Creek and begrudgingly shared our snacks with some ants who insisted on partaking. Greedy little buggers! I rubbed my feet and enjoyed the respite from the monotonous hike.
Eventually, we moved on and finally reached the trail to VVR, a 1.4-mile long mucky, muddy path. We didn’t dawdle too much by this point. We needed to be at the boat landing by 4:45 pm or run the risk of having to hike an unmaintained 5-mile trail all the way to the resort.
The ferry, The Edison Queen, picked us up on schedule and shuttled us across the extensively long Edison Lake. It took about 35 minutes to go from one end to the other, and I was grateful that we didn’t have to hike the distance. As I gazed off, I watched the outboard motor from the ferry stir up the water. The turbulence created turquoise crests that curled around like ribbons in a mesmerizing dance. I pondered about how, at one time, this lake did not exist. It was created in 1954 with the construction of Vermillion Dam across Mono Creek, a tributary of the South Fork of the San Joaquin River. From the back-end, the lake looked like it belonged there, and was created slowly over time. However, as we got closer to the front-end of the lake, you could clearly see that it was indeed man-made.
I anxiously await the ferry's arrival to take us to Vermilion Valley Resort.
My husband takes a quick nap next to 'Big Red' as we wait for the ferry to shuttle us to Vermilion Valley Resort.
Aboard 'The Edison Queen,' looking back after being picked up from the John Muir Trail, heading to Vermilion Valley Ranch.
We arrived at VVR and were treated to a beer. The resort is renowned in the hiker community for their appetizing menu and generous portions, so with that being the case, we made sure to order some dinner. We were not let down. I ate a plate of finger-licking ribs that would have rivaled a serving in any self-respecting rib joint, combined with a heaping side of mashed potatoes. Whatever it was that Joe ate, I can’t remember. I was too engrossed in devouring my own meal to take notice, but I remember him saying, “That was really good!”
We had asked about accommodations (again, I didn’t make reservations), and at the time, there were none. This was not unexpected, especially after our experience at MTR, but this time we were not disappointed. After dinner, we were informed that there was a ‘glamping trailer’ available.
We walked up to ‘Big Red,’ as the trailer was called, ironically the same name I assigned to my pack. It was a large travel trailer, the kind you pull behind a more powerful vehicle than your average SUV. When the door was opened by the host, we walked in, and I squealed out like a little child opening a present on Christmas morning. It had a kitchen, a living room, a bedroom in the back, and bathroom outfitted with a toilet, sink, AND shower! To us, yes, this was glamorous camping indeed.
I asked our host if there was running hot water, and she said, “Yes.” I then asked if the toilet worked, and she smiled before replying, “Of, course!”
I jumped up and down, again like a juvenile. For some reason, I often took on the persona of a 5-year old, but the fact of the matter was that Joe and I were both ELATED. We couldn’t believe our fortune, talk about euphoria! We had a shower with HOT RUNNING water and our own toilet!
Oh, the joy to be able to poop without having to find a spot to dig and perform the onerous squat, and to be able to wash our hands with warm water, and generously use soap to get legitimately clean! And on top of all that magnificence, the trailer was right on the shore of the lake. What an unbelievable view!
It was like heaven. After being out in the wild for over two weeks, the things we expect as a given in the civilized world suddenly become cherished luxuries that we cannot show enough appreciation for. Simple commonplace things like a toilet and hot running water are never taken for granted again after having the experience of not having them for weeks.
On the shore of the lake, the sun behind us, we watched the effect of it dipping below the horizon. The close of the day created that characteristic alpenglow that always paints the distant mountaintops with a rosy radiance here in the Sierra, while shadows of blue and glimmers of pink reflected in the water. We watched until it was gone, and the colors of dusk faded away, heralding the night.
I stand by the shore of Lake Edison at Vermilion Valley Resort watching the alpenglow on the mountains in the distance as the sun sets at the end of the day.
That evening, I slept the best I had slept in days. The bed in the trailer was so comfortable. That old thick slice of foam that could have been original. It did not matter because didn’t care, it beat the blow-up sleeping pad that we’ve been laying on top of the hard, unforgiving ground.
It was sometime in the early morning when I woke up because I had to pee, and I was freezing cold. I had opened the vent above the bed before going to sleep because it was a little warm inside the trailer, and now it was frigidly cold. I shut the window but wasn’t able to enter a deep sleep again until the sun was already rising.
We woke up at a casual 8:30 am. The only reason I actually got out of bed was that I had to shower and then go do laundry before the next wave of hikers arrived around 10:15 am.
'Big Red' the backpack and 'Big Red' the travel trailer, together at VVR.
The restaurant at Vermilion Valley Resort offers generous portions of delicious, home-cooked meals.
We enjoy a relaxing zero-day on the shore of Lake Edison at Vermilion Valley Resort.
Hungry, we decided to go get some breakfast, which consisted of pancakes, eggs, sausage, toast, and coffee. We feasted like we never had eaten before. Our appetites had been stifled by the combination of altitude and exertion. But on this day, kismet had awakened senses that had been dormant.
We indulged ourselves throughout the day, sitting at the bar, knocking back a couple of beers while watching ‘Deadliest Catch’ on TV. What else could we ask for? We were living in a veritable oasis, Shangri-la. This is not to say that the backcountry of the Sierra is not unlike paradise, but the appreciation for those things that make our lives a little easier cannot be overlooked.
Oh, glorious day! For what seemed like the first time in a week, I had no complaints. I was contented, amenable, and most of all, grateful. I looked at Joe and said, “Now, this is living! I’m so happy that you’re with me.”

Periods and peeing, nobody wants to hear about those things! I have no idea why not. For us women, those are quite challenging things to deal with in the backcountry and is a topic we often discuss extensively in group settings believe it or not. LOL
Yes, the Camino de Santiago is on my list of things to do. Someday.

Hi. I’m Neil Robinson, an ex-university lecturer and teacher from the UK. Saved from Christianity a few years ago, I began to investigate just what it was I’d believed. ‘Following Jesus’ took thirty years of my life and it was all a fraud.
With over 2 billion adherents worldwide, Christianity is still the most popular and insidious belief system in the world. But it makes truth claims and promises it cannot meet – and never has – and offers a perspective of reality based on fantasy figures and scenarios for which no evidence exists. It contradicts almost everything science tells us about reality and asks its adherents to accept its propositions on ‘faith’, without question or the exercise of critical faculties. It expects them too to spread the virus whenever and wherever they can.
Like other ex-Christians, I know from the inside what Christians believe, having bought into its false promises, failed prophecies and impossible morality. And impossible morality it is, which is why most Christians practise it as if it were a form of homeopathy; in miniscule amounts and only to their own taste.
Yet, we’re all expected to respect this faith, as if believing some of the daftest things imaginable is something that deserves to be tiptoed round; as if a virus of epidemic proportions merits ‘respect’ rather than treatment.
Well, you’ll find no respect in these posts, I’m pleased to say. There might instead be some treatment, some therapy perhaps, that can help deliver minds from contagion. I’d like to think so; my hope is that each post serves in some small way as an antidote to the virus that holds millions in its delusional thrall.
‘Rejecting Jesus’ can only do you good!

I have been a believer for going on 62 years, and I have not regretted a minute of it. In those years I have been changed by the Lord from selfishness to selflessness one step at a time. It has been a journey but one that has as its destination a wholeness that I believe is God’s design for every person, if they would accept it.

At what point did you decide to dedicate your life to “rejecting Jesus” by questioning those that do? I read a few of your articles and noticed that you’re asking Christians defend the parts of the Bible that you don’t understand. For example, in your use of Matthew 5:38-48, you only summarized verses 39-48 so you could use alliteration further your real agenda. In verse 38, where Jesus says, “You have heard that it was said, ‘An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth.” I’m only going to write it out for you here for those that don’t understand your manipulation of it: Jesus was telling his disciples that, the law of the land did not align with following Christ. In 39-42, he’s telling them that retaliation is not okay. His instructions continue. You skipped 43, addressing another old law. 44-48 Jesus instructs them to “love your enemies.” And finally, 49 refers to 45-48, “that you may be children of your Father in heaven. He causes his sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous. 46 If you love those who love you, what reward will you get? Are not even the tax collectors doing that? 47 And if you greet only your own people, what are you doing more than others? Do not even the Gentiles do the same?” 49 Jesus tells them to be perfect, because the deciples knew he was perfect, and they needed to act as he did by following the instructions he just gave them.

Cindy, to answer your points as far as I can make them out:
You ask: ‘At what point did you decide to dedicate your life to “rejecting Jesus” by questioning those that do?’ This doesn’t quite make sense; those that do what? The answer to the first part of the question, however, is covered in the ‘about the author’ section – essentially when Christians wouldn’t leave me alone but seemed to think they were entitled to bombard me with inanities.
You again: ‘you’re asking Christians (to) defend the parts of the Bible that you don’t understand.’ Thank you for your condescension here, but I do understand the bits of the Bible I cite – rather better than you if I may say so. I challenge Christians to show the extent they live according to Jesus’ demands when almost all of the evidence points to the fact they are unable to do so.
‘For example, in your use of Matthew 5:38-48, you only summarized verses 39-48 so you could use alliteration further your real agenda.’ 1) References must of necessity be limited; I’d say summarising nine verses is more than adequate. (Is this the old and feeble ‘you quoted out of context’ objection in a different guise?) b) your point about alliteration makes no sense and 3) I have a ‘real’ agenda? Please tell me what it is. I thought I made my agenda clear (you’ve already referred to it) but evidently you know better – well done.
‘Jesus tells (his followers) to be perfect, because the deciples (sic) knew he was perfect, and they needed to act as he did by following the instructions he just gave them.’ I’d guess this was my point (it usually is) though you don’t reference which post you’re addressing so I can’t be entirely sure. So, Cindy – are you perfect as he says you must be? If not, why not? It may come as a surprise to you that quoting Bible verses in garbled comments on blogs doesn’t really qualify.
Whatever would Jesus think?
Better luck next time.

Cindy, vs 38 is not a reference to the “law of the land.” Where do you think they “have heard it said”?! In Torah. Jesus is quoting the Bible!
As for loving your enemies, who is God’s worst enemy? The Devil. I wonder why I never heard of Christians asking if God will love his enemy and what that might look like?!

Interesting point, especially in light of that one verse,” Hell was created for the devil and his angels.”. I’ve read accounts of people who had been dead, briefly, and they claim the wound up in Hell. Either for the purpose of warning others, or what they were facing in the future if they didn’t stop, or do, certain things. Christians included.

Apologies, JR, for not responding sooner (for some reason WordPress didn’t inform me of a whole block of comments that arrived late last year).
I belonged to a number of evangelical CofE churches, depending on where I found myself living. Even when there wasn’t one in the area I’d find an evangelical church of another denomination; a free church when I lived briefly in America (nice people but really way out) and a Methodist church prior to jettisoning my beliefs. How about you?
Faith isn’t as in your face in the UK as it is in America, thankfully, but it still has a significant influence. Of course the internet allows one to reach all corners of the world and I’m pleased to have some (very!) small input into the States.

All due respect, sir, I know many people who live according to the commands of Jesus, and see many people’s lives enriched and lifted as a result. I also am a follower of Jesus, and my life and work demonstrate that.
Now, I’m not an advocate for sloppy belief, but i am secure enough in my conversion story and life transformation to be content with not knowing some things until i eventually do. I don’t have the anxiety of needing to know it all up-front or perform it all perfectly from the start in order to retain my faith; though I have met people who have had this rigid approach to faith, they were somehow quite willing to warmly welcomed unbelief whenever it invariably found them.

As for conversion stories and transformations, these are lovely emotional experiences that happen for all sorts of reasons (as I consider here: https://rejectingjesus.com/2015/05/03/a-new-creation-or-same-old-same-old/) These I have experienced.
The bottom line is this: ‘Is Christianity true?’ and ‘Is there evidence that God, Christ, angels and heaven exist independent of the human imagination and the emotions?’ You’re more than welcome to provide any such evidence here, though if you do you’ll be the first who’s been able to.

Please cite the verses from the bible where Jesus says he came to set up Catholicism specifically? Are they near the ones where he says the world will end in his disciples’ life-time (Matthew 16:27-28 & 24:27, 30-31, 34; Luke 21:27-28, 33-34 etc)? If so – though we both know they’re not – then how can he hold both views? Believing the world was about to end kind of precludes setting up a church for the next 2000 years, don’t you think?

Either God became a man or he didn’t. The evidence is overwhelmingly the case that he did. And it is the church primarily and not the Bible which emerged out of the church which stands as the sacrament of this truth and his presence on earth. If you are open to the truth, you will see it. But it is obvious to me that your intellect is blinded by your will, which is set against the truth.
One must put aside the self and one’s thoughts and prejudices in order to see Truth. I would recommend silent meditation as taught by John Main. God is beyond all human concepts and words, so to encounter God one has to become silent.

So I should follow your lead and suppress whatever intellect I’ve got, reject rationality and suppress my critical faculties in order to believe tautological nonsense like ‘it was the church… which emerged out of the church ‘ and other superstitious mumbo jumbo.
tides99 on June 14, 2018 at 4:10 pm said:
I have a PhD in philosophy, so I certainly would not believe in anything that goes against reason or requires one to repress or contradict one’s critical faculties. Criticsl reason is only one way of encountering and assessing reality, and there are aspects of reality that reason cannot adjudicate because it cannot access them. Rationalism is itself based Upon faith, of faith in the ultimate intelligibility of the universe, and its perfect transparency to human reason. This of course cannot be proven, yet you believe it anyway. It’s quite superstitious to have such faith, but yet have nothing really to ground it on. The truth is that the reason why reason exists is because the universe is ordered, and the reason why it’s ordered is, of course, because there is an orderer, namely God. Here’s Edward Feser’s story. I hope it inspires you (edit)…
Speaking for myself, anyway, I can say this much. When I was an undergrad I came across the saying that learning a little philosophy leads you away from God, but learning a lot of philosophy leads you back. As a young man who had learned a little philosophy, I scoffed. But in later years and at least in my own case, I would come to see that it’s true.

How did I end up a mad dog non-believer? It has taken awhile because I have never felt like a true believer, though raised in a Mormon family in a Mormon town. Now it has become a bit of a passion to spread the word that there is only one life per each creature. The basic delusions which are problematic are resurrection, salvation (from what?) and eternal “life”. I have heard the stories of the glorious eternal progression of God’s spiritual children in the hereafter from the Mormons. Religion as such, is not the problem, Gods are not the problem. The problem is that the monotheists, the JCI, pray for the end of the world and have been trying to bring it on for centuries. I am a big fan of Hitchens, a former Brit, thanks a lot. It is puzzling that the scam has worked so well for so long, but of course most believers got it from their parents. This is a disjointed statement, but I hope to hear more of your position and goal (if any) in opposing the delusion of resurrection, heaven, and eternity. GROG

I gave him an abbreviated version of how the resurrection appearances were, at most, visions, elaborated on extensively before being set down in the gospels decades later (There are several posts on this, and on heaven, on this here blog thing.)

There is delusion in any merely human teaching and institution regarding ultimate truths about man, his purpose, and God. But however widespread and malignant such delusion is, it doesn’t mean that there is no truth in these areas that can be discovered and known to be true. To claim that there is no truth, either revealed by God or discovered by human reason, is to claim something that you can’t know or at least be sure of. God, if he did exist, would not be able to be judged in this way, for he would be beyond our thoughts. We tend to idolize our own concepts and viewpoints on things, making gods or non-gods out of them. We are thus caught up in a hall of mirrors. The antidote to this self-idolatry is the practice of silence, silent meditation, where we open ourselves to reality as it is, not as we would like it to be. I recommend this practice, using a mantra to help focus scattered thoughts, ma-ra-na-tha, Come Lord. See more here, if this is something that is interesting to you:
There are 12 audio talks here by John Main, a wise and humble teacher.

The other sort of teaching beyond human teaching is divine teaching, that is, a teaching that is given to man by God and not merely created by man. You have no idea whether or not such a divine revelation has been given to man, but you act like you know it’s impossible or absurd.
Also, reality itself is a book whose meaning can be read if one’s eyes are open and docile to its teachings. The essential meaning of the book of reality is love, but it is a tragic or comedic drama depending on what role you choose to play. Rejecting Love Incarnate will surely lead to tragedy for you if you persist in it. But as the Resurrection has demonstrated to the world, the story is ultimately comedic, eternal happiness for all who choose to receive the gift.

The other kind of teaching is divine teaching. You have no idea that such a divine teaching has not been given to man, yet you write as if you knew it wasn’t.
If a creator of the world existed, he would be outside of that creation and we would not know for sure about him. There might be clues but not much more than that. But if the creator decided to come into the creation and reveal his nature and purpose while still remaining the creator then that would qualify as a divine teaching.
The historical figure of Jesus Christ Make sense only as the incarnation of the living God, and no other explanation for him will hold water. He was neither merely a sage, nor a Jewish prophet, nor a moral teacher, nor a madman, nor a liar. By rejecting Jesus Christ you reject reason itself, the logos, and become a self-contradiction. The Gospels show us plainly that Jesus was and is the God-Man.
I am happy to provide some arguments for these claims but for now let that settle in.
Neil on September 19, 2018 at 12:56 pm said:
Your ‘argument’ that Jesus demonstrates the existence of God and God proves Jesus was God is entirely circular. You presume your conclusion from the outset: ‘the’ creator, divine teaching, Jesus as God-Man all presuppose that a God exists – and yet you offer no evidence that he/she/it does. That could be because there is none, certainly not for Yahweh, nor for the belief Jesus was a manifestation of this god (C. S. Lewis’ discredited ‘Lord, Liar or Lunatic’ challenge notwithstanding.)
Evidently, reason exists and as product of the human mind does so without recourse to any religious concepts (including your Logos) all of which are notably irrational.

Heaven and hell begin right here and now. Self absorption and isolation is hell, while self expansion and union in love is heaven. True religion enables such self expansion and self forgetfulness, to become one with the very source and fullness of love. Jesus Christ displays this perfect fullness. We live eternally, now in time and after in the eternal moment. We have this lifetime to get our soul ready for the moment of death. I would urge you to care less about the sins and hypocrisy of others and more about your own path. Following Jesus Christ is a sure path. There are other paths, for those who have not been given the chance to encounter Jesus, but none as sure as the way of the cross. John Main teaches how to be silent and experience the presence of God.

‘Heaven and hell begin right here and now.’ They do? How do you know? Where’s your evidence they even exist?
‘Self absorption and isolation is hell, while self expansion and union in love is heaven.’ How do you know this? Where does the bible say so? (Spoiler: it doesn’t.)
‘Jesus Christ displays this perfect fullness.’ He does? The failed prophet and false promiser who wanted his enemies murdered in front of him? Doesn’t sound like a perfectly realised individual to me.
‘We live eternally, now in time and after in the eternal moment.’ What evidence do you have that humans are eternal beings? All the evidence suggests we are entirely temporal.
‘We have this lifetime to get our soul ready for the moment of death.’ Who says? What evidence is there that we are, or have, souls? Where do you get the idea that this life is a prelude to ‘something better’? I’m not prepared to squander mine for a fantasy after-life.
‘I urge you to care less about the sins and hypocrisy of others and more about your own path.’ I don’t care about the ‘sins’ of others (there’s no such thing as sin, in any case) but the often deplorable behaviour of believers is clear demonstration that Christianity doesn’t actually work; doesn’t, as Paul insists, ‘make all things new’ and ‘new creations’ of people.
‘Following Jesus Christ is a sure path.’ A sure path to what? Hypocrisy? Wasting life? Developing new prejudices? Feeling inferior? Feeling superior? Heaven? (Where does the bible say you’re going there? More spoiler: it doesn’t.)
‘John Main teaches how to be silent and experience the presence of God.’ Most mainline Christians do not regard mysticism or meditation as a means of experiencing God. How do you know it’s the presence of God you’re experiencing, anyway? Given there’s no evidence he exists, isn’t it more likely the stillness within is an experience of… well, the stillness within?
Sorry, Thaddeus, I know you’ll say I don’t get any of this because I’m not enlightened/in the Spirit/freed from sin/whatever but the fact is all of it, from the Jesus/eternal life stuff to the mysticism, is mere self delusion.

A good portion of it 500+ years in the Western Hemisphere,all the horrific damage that was done, and continues to this day. Like all the bodies of children turning up, hidden on the grounds of government residential schools in the U.S. and Canada,lately. No excuses exist for these things. Native American kids,forced to attend those institutions. Growing up in Los Angeles, I always suspected that creed among my childhood friends was a crock.

Because I knew my own history,even when young, I was at that time resolutely Tengerist, and beyond converting. Though still a Christian today as an adult, I’m not part of any organized group. It made things bearable for me to shun churches. Seeing all the antics around me and in the news, it sure was the right decision for me ! I can’t blame anyone who feels the need to walk away.

Something I always found very disturbing is that if all humans descended from 2 people, that means God used incest, something he deemed an abominable sin, to populate the earth
Neil on March 10, 2022 at 8:41 am said:
0h, but of course God allowed – encouraged – incest back at the beginning. Answers In Genesis says so.
Elliot on March 10, 2022 at 8:56 am said:
If God made multiple pairs of humans, Adam and Eve’s children can get married with the children of the other human couples, thus allowing humans to populate earth without incest.
If there were many humans, the Snake would not be able to deceive everyone. He might be able to deceive Adam or Eve. But he would not be able to deceive Peter, Paul, Nicholas, Isaiah, Patrick, Katrina, Mary, and the rest. Some humans might have sinned. But not everyone. You can never deceive everybody all the time.
If the punishment for sin was physical death followed by eternal torment in flames that don’t go out, that warning is blatantly absent in Genesis. Instead, God told Adam he would die. But Adam lived 9 more centuries before he presumably died of natural causes associated with old age, fathering many children. No mention of what happened to him after he died. Or to Noah. Or Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, and Joseph. They died. That was it.
Also, if there was no death at the time, then Adam could have known what death was when he disobeyed God. And the fact that there was a Tree of Life bestowing immortality to all who ate from it is a strong indicator that death, in fact, existed prior to Adam sinning. Otherwise, there is no need for a Tree of Life.
Everything was not perfect prior to Adam sinning. The talking snake, presumably Satan, was out to deceive the first humans into disobeying and sinning against God. A rogue creation. This meant sin and evil existed before Adam ever came into being
The Old Testament talked about a gloomy underworld called Sheol deep beneath earth where everyone went to. But the idea of a fiery hell of torment and brimstone didn’t take front, left, and center of the Scriptures until Jesus. How suspicious is that?
“Progressive Revelation?”
That’s like if a teacher warned a student “Hey Diego! If you disobey me, you’ll be expelled.” Diego disobeys. He is expelled. But as he steps outside the school, he is arrested and sentenced to life in prison. The teacher didn’t tell him that latter part.

The Bible mentions a temporary Hell called Hades and a permanent Hell called the Lake of Fire. The people in Hades stay there until the Great White Throne Judgment when God calls everyone’s number and checks for names in the Book of Life. Anyone whose name is not in the Book is sent to the Lake of Fire alongside the devil, his angels, the antichrist, and the false prophet.
So, this means someone could have died. Burning and suffering in Hades for thousands of years. Taken out of Hades at the Judgment day and possibly granted a brief reprieve from the pain. Then told he is going to an even more violent torture chamber that goes on forever. Taken out of Hell only to be thrown back into Hell, in other words.
Also, if there are billions of humans shrieking, wailing, and blaspheming God forever and ever, this means evil and sin will continue to exist forever alongside and concurrent with the New Earth and the New Heavens. A twisted duality.
And since God is omnipresent, he would be in the Lake of Fire tormenting sinners just as he is in the New Jerusalem enjoying fellowship with his chosen elected.
Think about that for a second.

Social workers have a key role to play in the war against coronavirus
(Posted on Tuesday, March 24, 2020)
As the number of Americans critically ill from coronavirus mounts, one thing is becoming increasingly clear: it’s the oldest among us who are most vulnerable.
Among the most recent deaths reported in the United States were a 69-year-old man, a man and a woman, each in their 70s, and another woman in her 80s. Their deaths reflect a wider story that those tracking the lethality of this new disease are just beginning to understand – in the fight against COVID-19, the younger fare far better than the old.
Early research by the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention has shown that the fatality rate of this new disease differs widely by age. For those confirmed cases between the ages of 10 and 39, only 0.2 percent die. For those 80 or older, the fatality rate is 14.8 percent.
So while health care workers in hospitals and clinics may be the first line of defense for those feeling ill, it is the social workers and caregivers in our nursing homes and long-term care centers who are truly on the front lines of this outbreak. And yet, our national response has all but ignored this critical community.
To redress our oversight, we must work immediately to integrate social workers and long-term care providers into our overall response to the outbreak. Social workers are the ones who will be able to identify those most at risk, who can alert authorities at the first sign of a patient falling ill, and who can pinpoint the patients who are likely to have the most severe and fatal reactions to COVID-19.
Beyond simply linking social workers to the wider effort, we must also ensure that they have the knowledge, training and equipment to deliver immediate care for those in need – including the protective equipment in such scarce supply today. Without such equipment, social workers risk spreading infections to other patients and are at serious risk themselves as they move about facilities where the scope of the outbreak may not yet be fully understood.
Now that testing kits are becoming increasingly available across the United States, long-term care facilities across the country and especially in communities with known cases should be the first among those to receive them. When a medical solution becomes available, we must prioritize these facilities as well, as they are home to the most vulnerable among us.
History has taught us how critically important social workers can be in the face of a public health epidemic. They were the messengers who first warned us about the spread of tuberculosis in Victorian slums. They were the ones to first understand and advocate for AIDS patients in the earliest years of the epidemic. Today, they are the ones who can help us push back the boundaries of this epidemic and help prevent it from spreading across our country.

He turned back to see her coming his way, he frowned, "How?" he blinked as he turned his head to the direction she had run away a minute ago and now she appeared in front of him from the opposite side "What the? You just went there," He looked at her dumbfounded.
"What are you talking about? I just came," Ivana frowned.
"No, you were here with me a minute ago, and then you..." He noticed h

Ivana tried Reece's number but he didn't pick up, "Please," She muttered as she dialed again. she paced across the room in frustration.There was a knock on her door she rolled her eyes and shouted as soon as she opened the door, "I told you to leave me alone!""Oh, sorry," The girl flinched."I'm sorry, Samuel, I thought it was... I'm really sorry," Ivana apologized."It's okay," the girl managed to smile at her. "Did you need something?" Ivana asked her."Hmm, we're having the barbeque, so I came to call you," She shrugged."Yes, I'll be there, thank you," Ivana nodded with a smile.Reaching the lawn, they had prepared the table outside and were grilling the meat, her eyes wandered around searching for Reece, when she didn't find him she heaved a sigh in disappointment, "Boss, here!" A guy from their group waved. Ivana lifted her face and saw Reece coming their way, her face lit up at his si
He leaned back on his chair and answered, "It's you I'm in love with," He confessed."Heh?" She shouted in horror as she jumped up from her seat."No, no, that's not possible, we've only met for like three times?" She frowned, "It's Ivana, definitely her," She tried to convince him. "Let's do this again, hmm?"
Arielle packed her clothes in a small bag as they were going for a two day trip to the countryside as Reece had to go on a meeting with a client there, she got changed into a white shirt and blue jeans pant, she adorned a black jeans jacket she then turned her head to the empty bed and sighed, she hadn't seen her boss since she woke up, last night she had asked him to go with her and help her patch things up between Reece and Ivana, but he flatly refused and went to sleep. She had called Ivana, even she refused to listen to her, "At this rate looks like I'm going to end up getting married to Reece," She heaved a sigh in frustration.
After Reece and Ivana were out of the meeting room, Arielle rushed to them, "Work's done, now let's go have some fun!" She cheered. "Let's go on a hike," She pointed at the tall hill opposite to the resort."Let them breathe first," Eiden passed a taunt as he walked and stood beside her, "Let's have the breakfast first?" He suggested. Arielle's stomach growled in response, Eiden chuckled, "Miss forever hungry," He poked his finger on her forehead. "Hehe," She smiled meekly.At the breakfast table, Arielle prepared the plates for her main leads as they were sitting next to each other turning their faces away, "Here, have this, Reece," She placed the plate in front of him, "And this is for Ivana," She placed another plate on the table and smiled at them."Thanks," Reece smiled back at her."Ahem," Eiden cleared his throat as he eyed them in disapproval."Let me get yours too boss," She smiled at Eiden and rushed to
While Eiden and Arielle raced ahead, Reece and Ivana were left behind. The awkwardness in the air was suffocating, Reece decided to take an initiative, "Hmm," He cleared his throat, he was about to say something but Ivana speeded her pace."Hey!" Reece called out to her as he jogged to her side, "can we please talk?" He asked her, without giving him a single look she continued climbing up.
"hey!" Reece called out to Ivana but she refused to listen, she just marched ahead. Reece heaved a sigh as he gave up on trying to make a conversation with her, he just followed her quietly."We're just going around in circles, just where is this place?" Ivana kicked a tree in frustration.Reece shook his head as he watched her vent her anger on the poor tree, he clicked his tongue, "Tsk, Tsk."She snapped her head in his direction and glared at him. He just shrugged and roamed his eyes anywhere but to meet her gaze. She rolled her eyes and looked at the trail in front of her, she heaved a sigh before continuing on the path.After a few hours of going around in a circle, she covered her eyes from the glare of the sun, she wiped the sweat from her forehead and sat down on the shade as she leaned against the tree.Reece walked to her and offered her the water bottle, she turned her head away, he squatted to her level and
After a sleepless night, they all gathered for the breakfast, Arielle rubbed her eyes, she shook her head trying to keep herself awake, after placing the foods on her plate, she turned to go but almost bumped into someone, "Sorry," She looked up only to meet eyes with the one she wanted to avoid. "Boss," She muttered before averting her gaze before he could speak a word, she slipped away.Ivana turned around and seeing their interaction, she narrowed her eyes, Eiden heaved a sigh and took his plate, he then saw Ivana giving him a weird look, "Good morning?" He raised a brow."Good morning," She replied with a smile but her smile vanished as soon as she saw Reece coming their way, Seeing her Reece's face broke into a smile he opened his mouth to say something, "Excuse me," She ran away before Reece could utter a word.Reece let out a deep sigh.***While returning, Arielle wanted to ask Ivana to join her in the back seat but when E
After Ivana left, Arielle was left alone with her thoughts, she sighed as she went back to her bed, skipping her breakfast. After spending the entire morning inside her bed when her stomach asked for food, she dragged herself out of the bed and made her way to the kitchen, she sat with her plate in front of her but despite being hungry she had no interest in the food, she had been picking on it. She had her elbow on the table with her chin in her hand. She heaved a deep sigh.She closed her eyes but her eyes shot open when she heard his voice, "Ms. Forever hungry, why are you picking on your food?"She blinked at her boss who was sitting opposite her, "What are you..." She then trailed off, she closed her eyes and shook her head, when she opened them, he was gone."Whoa!" Arielle got goosebumps. "I need some glucose in my system, I've started hallucinating!" She grabbed her spoon and stuffed the heated waffle inside her mouth.After fini

Horses are prey animals. Like other prey animals, their survival depends on their ability to "read" or sense the intentions of predators.
Despite their domestication, they are master intuitives, acutely aware of the subtle changes in "energy" that occur in their environment - the weather, other animals, and especially humans.
They are therefore much better than any human therapist could ever hope to be, at seeing what's going on beneath the surface. And they reflect what they see on the spot, without hold-back, without sugar-coating it.

The God we meet in Amos and John demands righteousness, solidarity and justice as the foundations of faithful living. Neutrality scuppers justice. When we drift away from God, our fellow human beings and the life-giving environment, prophetic truth-telling tempered with an imagination for a different world becomes a necessity.
This is what he showed me: the Lord was standing beside a wall built with a plumb line, with a plumb line in his hand. And the Lord said to me, “Amos, what do you see?” And I said, “A plumb line.” Then the Lord said, “See, I am setting a plumb line in the midst of my people Israel; I will never again pass them by; the high places of Isaac shall be made desolate, and the sanctuaries of Israel shall be laid waste, and I will rise against the house of Jeroboam with the sword.” Then Amaziah, the priest of Bethel, sent to King Jeroboam of Israel, saying, “Amos has conspired against you in the very center of the house of Israel; the land is not able to bear all his words. For thus Amos has said, ‘Jeroboam shall die by the sword, and Israel must go into exile away from his land.’” And Amaziah said to Amos, “O seer, go, flee away to the land of Judah, earn your bread there, and prophesy there; but never again prophesy at Bethel, for it is the king’s sanctuary, and it is a temple of the kingdom.” Then Amos answered Amaziah, “I am no prophet, nor a prophet’s son; but I am a herdsman, and a dresser of sycamore trees, and the Lord took me from following the flock, and the Lord said to me, ‘Go, prophesy to my people Israel.’
For John had been telling Herod, ‘It is not lawful for you to have your brother’s wife.’ And Herodias had a grudge against him, and wanted to kill him. But she could not, for Herod feared John, knowing that he was a righteous and holy man, and he protected him. When he heard him, he was greatly perplexed; and yet he liked to listen to him. But an opportunity came when Herod on his birthday gave a banquet for his courtiers and officers and for the leaders of Galilee. When his daughter Herodias came in and danced, she pleased Herod and his guests; and the king said to the girl, ‘Ask me for whatever you wish, and I will give it.’ And he solemnly swore to her, ‘Whatever you ask me, I will give you, even half of my kingdom.’ She went out and said to her mother, ‘What should I ask for?’ She replied, ‘The head of John the baptizer.’ Immediately she rushed back to the king and requested, ‘I want you to give me at once the head of John the Baptist on a platter.’ The king was deeply grieved; yet out of regard for his oaths and for the guests, he did not want to refuse her. Immediately the king sent a soldier of the guard with orders to bring John’s head. He went and beheaded him in the prison, brought his head on a platter, and gave it to the girl. Then the girl gave it to her mother. When his disciples heard about it, they came and took his body, and laid it in a tomb.
Truth speaking and pursuing justice are a dangerous vocation. You could literally lose your head. When powers and principalities are confronted with truth that contradicts how they view themselves, the immediate knee jerk reaction of the powerful is to eliminate the truth speaker, assuming that truth will be exterminated. But it couldn’t be further from reality. In the lectionary reading we encounter two prophets, Amos and John, doing what they have been called by God to do: speak truth to the power.
Firstly, the passage from Amos (7:7-15) paints an apocalyptic picture, the high places made desolate, and sanctuaries laid to waste. The people of Israel abandoned God’s will in their religious and political establishment, due to their twisted morality and their failure to live up to God’s righteousness. Amos prophesied God’s judgement. God sets it out that the people of Israel were formed by justice and faithfulness, and when they have failed and warped their perceptions, God holds them accountable. Amos gave voice to God’s anger at the injustice meted out to the most vulnerable, imperial manipulations that victimised powerless, and religious authorities who trampled upon the defenceless. God’s patience has run out. God promises that justice will roll down like waters and righteousness like an ever-flowing stream. Amos stood by the high altar of the temple in Bethel to proclaim God’s judgement and to confront their transgressions spurned by privileges. In that instance Amos not only irritated Jeroboam, the king, but the high priest Amaziah as well. Amaziah interestingly turns to the king and not to God, he prefers to serve the king and not God. The religious authority legitimising imperial ambitions. Amos offers a critique of the idolatry of human power, which results in injustice and unfaithfulness. God has heard the cry of the vulnerable and will act decisively.
Secondly, in our second text, as a precursor to Jesus’ encounters with colonial power, Mark’s Gospel (6:18-29) offers a brief narrative of John’s violent death. Although Herod considers John as a righteous and holy man, he nevertheless decides to please Herodias rather than do justice to an innocent man. John became a political threat to Herod Antipas through his subversive promise of a new political order. John not only challenged the adultery of Herod and Herodias but questioned Herod’s political expediency of his actions. Markan description of the dinner invitees by Herod clearly captures the colonial collusion of military, government, economic and religious elites. Even though Herod knows John to be a righteous man, he resists and rejects John’s message of repentance and turns his life around. Herod, in order to please Herodias and his immediate constituencies, sends a clear message to anybody who questions his political project and authority; they will be dealt with and eliminated! The execution of John functions as a widow into the colonial world of violence, corruption and lust for power. Ched Myers commenting on the political nature of John’s killing, states: “Mark’s account of the death of John is scarcely apolitical! A more sarcastic social caricature could not have been spun by the bitterest Galilean peasant! Yet it stands well within the biblical tradition that pits arrogant kings against truth telling prophets.”[1]
In this story, the young girl is manipulated by the powerful to save their own dignity. As is the case among many, it is the most vulnerable who are scapegoated for the survival of the powerful. By dwelling on John’s violent death, Mark invites his readers to reflect on the butchery of innocent lives at the hand of the powerful. In John’s case death seems to have had the last word.
The prophetic radicalism of truth speaking embodied by Amos and John assumes importance in the face of temporal colonial powers and religious authorities that stifles life, not just human but life in all its manifestation. What these two stories capture is the confrontation between political power and prophetic faith. The lust for power and domination underpins the actions of Jeroboam and Herod. However, the actions of Amos and John is a pursuit of Justice. Often power resists truth because truth sheds light on every nook and cranny. Truth exposes bad-faith actions because it is often the most vulnerable who pay the price for it.
How can we make sense of such a prophetic truth telling?
Recently, Raoul Peck produced a hard-hitting and gut-wrenching documentary series called Exterminate all the Brutes. It is not for the faint hearted. Peck does not pay any obeisance to the empire, but rather captures its genocidal underpinnings through the words “civilisation, colonisation and extermination.” Peck visually links various historical events, starting from Columbus’ discovery of America, which led to the slaughter of indigenous people and later fueled transatlantic slave trade. Through crude and impeccable storytelling, Peck connects some of the major social events to lift the ‘horrors’ of empires. The people who set sail on Mayflower in 1620 from Plymouth in England may be known as freedom loving and hardworking ‘Pilgrim fathers’, but they certainly consolidated the position of settler colonialists, which brought destruction to the native American communities. The bottom line is that much of modern Enlightenment history is deeply shaped by the claims of white Christian European superiority and the resulting conquests. In other words, the colonial and settler-colonial tendency to inflict genocidal extermination needs to be read as part of that history. Peck summarises his broad overview of history and its contemporary relevance, “What must be denounced here is not so much the reality of the Native American genocide, or the reality of slavery, or the reality of the Holocaust; what needs to be denounced here are the consequences of these realities in our lives and in life today.”
Firstly, the residential school genocide of children by the church authorities in the name of cultural assimilation and integration goes far deeper into the psyche of colonisation. As we watch with shock the excavation of unmarked graves that tells the stories of atrocities committed by the catholic church to young indigenous children in Canada, it brings to light the role of churches in enabling and entrenching the worldview of settler colonialism. As the stories from the past are catching up with us, the re-education camps for Uyghur children and men are silently being played in the background, along with the alarming conditions migrant children find themselves in El Paso Texas. We have been here before, in our living memories: the Holocaust, the Rwandan genocide, Occupation of Palestinian territories, and too many acts of Ethnic cleansing to name. At the heart of all this human cruelty is the lust for power, control and domination, and the desperate search of millions for a better life. All colonial tendencies cannot be left at the door of white Euro-American colonisers. Ask me, a Dalit: we don’t need white men to come, dominate and exterminate us. Our immediate colonisers were even more sophisticated in their thinking. The wretched Dalit existence is a divinely ordained graded social organisation called Caste system in the Indian subcontinent.
Secondly, the climate catastrophe is also an outgrowth of this colonial tendency to dominate and exterminate. Colonialism instrumentalised and rationalised the extraction of natural resources that has resulted in the catastrophic environmental breakdown. Never before has humanity had such an awareness of the unfolding climate disaster. We also recognise the power to impact any change and hold back the crisis. However, the recently concluded G7 leaders’ summit in the UK responded to the climate emergency through an interestingly named ‘green revolution’ plan. This plan fails to acknowledge the extent of work that needs to be done. None of the leaders committed to shifting their economies from fossil fuel dependency or reducing greenhouse gas emissions or safeguarding carbon sinks in natural ecosystems. As the wealthiest economies, these modern-day empires did not commit themselves to restructuring either their domestic economies or international cooperation to address the climate crisis or work towards a sustainable future. Such a stance assumes significance in the UK, especially with the forthcoming Cop26 climate conference in Glasgow.
The civilising project of colonialism is deeply entrenched in our modern societies. We are not free from the colonial worldview that commodifies humanity and nature, primarily defining its value based on our consumption.[2] A consumer driven, success oriented neo-colonial economic model is stifling life out of every living being. The global political class is simply aiding this self-destructive journey. The church largely seems to have been playing the role of a bystander. The global pandemic has clearly exposed these gross socio-economic inequalities.
Part of the truth telling is systematically deconstructing the fundamental theological paradigms that continue to exhibit colonial underpinnings and perpetuate neo-colonial tendencies. Just as Amos and John demonstrate, we need to bring in hermeneutical creativity driven by justice that opens up fresh perspectives in the task of decolonising the dominant theological narratives and holding our political leaders accountable. Truth telling is an urgent task for the church of our times in the embodied and lived experiences of people in the neo-colonial context, where the impact of colonial legacy lingers on. In the context of the climate crisis, we need to speak louder about the sacred relationship and bond between people and the environment. In the process we need to shed light on the stripping and trampling of this sacred relationship of biological connectivity, played out within the boundaries of the church. Structural colonisation may have happened in varied ways, however, the fundamental characteristics of colonisation, such as erasure, plunder and exploitation of local culture and lives are consistently manifested across the world.
These two stories of prophets confronting kings, invite us to think critically and deeply, especially its implications for Christian witness in our globalised world, where neoliberalism and necrocapitalism is still part of our social reality. As an antidote to our colonised views of God and by extension our theological perceptions, Amos and John offer a view: what God requires of us. It is important to speak the truth, The Word of God. At the heart of the prophet’s critique was a desire for a repentance that leads to renewal. What we require is a different worldview that does not operate on an extractive logic that causes violence to humanity and the environment alike. Instead, the God we meet in Amos and John demands righteousness, solidarity and justice as the foundations of faithful living. Neutrality scuppers justice. When we drift away from God, our fellow human beings and the life-giving environment, prophetic truth-telling tempered with an imagination for a different world becomes a necessity.
I don’t want to leave you in despair. The psalm (85:8-13) from our lectionary reading gives us a glimpse into how we, the church, can embody hope and inhabit a new worldview here and now. In God’s promised future, “steadfast love and faithfulness will meet; righteousness and peace will kiss each other. Faithfulness will spring up from the ground and righteousness will look down from the sky”. The emphasis of the psalmist is that the reassurances of God’s favour and fullness of life Shalom are realised in community and in solidarity, when life-giving sacred relationships are restored.

Toward sunset, enjoyed a fine run to camp, down the long south slopes, across ridges and ravines, gardens and avalanche gaps, through the firs and chaparral, enjoying wild excitement and excess of strength, and so ends a day that will never end.
Made sketch of the lake, and sauntered back to camp, my iron-shod shoes clanking on the pavements disturbing the chipmunks and birds. After dark went out to the shore,—not a breath of air astir, the lake a perfect mirror reflecting the sky and mountains with their stars and trees and wonderful sculpture, all their grandeur refined and doubled,—a marvelously impressive picture, that seemed to belong more to heaven than earth.It is easier to feel than to realize, or in any way explain, Yosemite grandeur. The magnitudes of the rocks and trees and streams are so delicately harmonized they are mostly hidden. Sheer precipices three thousand feet high are fringed with tall trees growing close like grass on the brow of a lowland hill, and extending along the feet of these precipices a ribbon of meadow a mile wide and seven or eight long, that seems like a strip a farmer might mow in less than a day. Waterfalls, five hundred to one or two thousand feet high, are so subordinated to the mighty cliffs over which they pour that they seem like wisps of smoke, gentle as floating clouds, though their voices fill the valley and make the rocks tremble. The mountains, too, along the eastern sky, and the domes in front of them, and the succession of smooth rounded waves between, swelling higher, higher, with dark woods in[Pg 133] their hollows, serene in massive exuberant bulk and beauty, tend yet more to hide the grandeur of the Yosemite temple and make it appear as a subdued subordinate feature of the vast harmonious landscape. Thus every attempt to appreciate any one feature is beaten down by the overwhelming influence of all the others. And, as if this were not enough, lo! in the sky arises another mountain range with topography as rugged and substantial-looking as the one beneath it—snowy peaks and domes and shadowy Yosemite valleys—another version of the snowy Sierra, a new creation heralded by a thunder-storm. How fiercely, devoutly wild is Nature in the midst of her beauty-loving tenderness!—painting lilies, watering them, caressing them with gentle hand, going from flower to flower like a gardener while building rock mountains and cloud mountains full of lightning and rain. Gladly we run for shelter beneath an overhanging cliff and examine the reassuring ferns and mosses, gentle love tokens growing in cracks and chinks. Daisies, too, and ivesias, confiding wild children of light, too small to fear. To these one’s heart goes home, and the voices of the storm become gentle. Now the sun breaks forth and fragrant steam arises. The birds are out singing on the edges of the[Pg 134] groves. The west is flaming in gold and purple, ready for the ceremony of the sunset, and back I go to camp with my notes and pictures, the best of them printed in my mind as dreams. A fruitful day, without measured beginning or ending. A terrestrial eternity. A gift of good God.
Fortunately the sheep need little attention, as they are driven slowly and allowed to nip and nibble as they like. Since leaving Hazel Green we have been following the Yosemite trail; visitors to the famous valley coming by way of Coulterville and Chinese Camp pass this way—the two trails uniting at Crane Flat—and enter the valley on the north side. Another trail enters on the south side by way of Mariposa. The tourists we saw were in parties of from three or four to fifteen or twenty, mounted on mules or small mustang ponies. A strange show they made, winding[Pg 99] single file through the solemn woods in gaudy attire, scaring the wild creatures, and one might fancy that even the great pines would be disturbed and groan aghast. But what may we say of ourselves and the flock?
The flock traveled at the rate of about a mile an hour, outspread in the form of an irregular triangle, about a hundred yards wide at the base, and a hundred and fifty yards long, with a crooked, ever-changing point made up of the strongest foragers, called the “leaders,” which, with the most active of those scattered along the ragged sides of the “main body,” hastily explored nooks in the rocks and bushes for grass and leaves; the lambs and feeble old[Pg 8] mothers dawdling in the rear were called the “tail end.”July 1. Summer is ripe. Flocks of seeds are already out of their cups and pods seeking their predestined places. Some will strike root and grow up beside their parents, others flying on the wings of the wind far from them, among strangers. Most of the young birds are full feathered and out of their nests, though still looked after by both father and mother, protected and fed and to some extent educated. How beautiful the home life of birds! No wonder we all love them.The desert around the lake is surprisingly flowery. In many places among the sage bushes I saw mentzelia, abronia, aster, bigelovia, and gilia, all of which seemed to enjoy the hot sunshine. The abronia, in particular, is a delicate, fragrant, and most charming plant.
September 21. A terribly hot, dusty, sunburned day, and as nothing was to be gained by loitering where the flock could find nothing to eat save thorny twigs and chaparral, we made a long drive, and before sundown reached the home ranch on the yellow San Joaquin plain.
July 25. Another cloudland. Some clouds[Pg 148] have an over-ripe decaying look, watery and bedraggled and drawn out into wind-torn shreds and patches, giving the sky a littered appearance; not so these Sierra summer midday clouds. All are beautiful with smooth definite outlines and curves like those of glacier-polished domes. They begin to grow about eleven o’clock, and seem so wonderfully near and clear from this high camp one is tempted to try to climb them and trace the streams that pour like cataracts from their shadowy fountains. The rain to which they give birth is often very heavy, a sort of waterfall as imposing as if pouring from rock mountains. Never in all my travels have I found anything more truly novel and interesting than these midday mountains of the sky, their fine tones of color, majestic visible growth, and ever-changing scenery and general effects, though mostly as well let alone as far as description goes. I oftentimes think of Shelley’s cloud poem, “I sift the snow on the mountains below.”
We are now approaching the region of clouds and cool streams. Magnificent white cumuli appeared about noon above the Yosemite region,—floating fountains refreshing the glorious wilderness,—sky mountains in whose pearly hills and dales the streams take their rise,—blessing with cooling shadows and rain. No rock landscape is more varied in sculpture, none more delicately modeled than these landscapes of the sky;[Pg 19] domes and peaks rising, swelling, white as finest marble and firmly outlined, a most impressive manifestation of world building. Every rain-cloud, however fleeting, leaves its mark, not only on trees and flowers whose pulses are quickened, and on the replenished streams and lakes, but also on the rocks are its marks engraved whether we can see them or not.
The snow on the high mountains is melting fast, and the streams are singing bank-full, swaying softly through the level meadows and bogs, quivering with sun-spangles, swirling in pot-holes, resting in deep pools, leaping, shouting in wild, exulting energy over rough boulder dams, joyful, beautiful in all their forms. No Sierra landscape that I have seen holds anything truly dead or dull, or any trace of what in manufactories is called rubbish or waste; everything is perfectly clean and pure and full of divine lessons. This quick, inevitable interest attaching to everything seems marvelous until the hand of God becomes visible; then it seems reasonable that what interests Him may well interest us. When we try to pick out anything by itself, we find it hitched to everything else in the universe. One fancies a heart like our own must be beating in every crystal and cell, and we feel like stopping to speak to the plants and animals as friendly fellow mountaineers. Nature as a poet, an enthusiastic workingman, becomes more and more visible the farther and higher[Pg 158] we go; for the mountains are fountains—beginning places, however related to sources beyond mortal ken.
At sundown the somber crags and peaks were inspired with the ineffable beauty of the alpenglow, and a solemn, awful stillness hushed everything in the landscape. Then I crept into a hollow by the side of a small lake near the head of the cañon, smoothed a sheltered spot, and gathered a few pine tassels for a bed. After the short twilight began to fade I kindled a sunny fire, made a tin cupful of tea, and lay down to watch the stars. Soon the night-wind began to flow from the snowy peaks overhead, at first only a gentle breathing, then gaining strength, in less than an hour rumbled in massive volume something like a boisterous stream in a boulder-choked channel, roaring and moaning down the cañon as if the work it had to do was tremendously important and fateful; and mingled with these storm[Pg 221] tones were those of the waterfalls on the north side of the cañon, now sounding distinctly, now smothered by the heavier cataracts of air, making a glorious psalm of savage wildness. My fire squirmed and struggled as if ill at ease, for though in a sheltered nook, detached masses of icy wind often fell like icebergs on top of it, scattering sparks and coals, so that I had to keep well back to avoid being burned. But the big resiny roots and knots of the dwarf pine could neither be beaten out nor blown away, and the flames, now rushing up in long lances, now flattened and twisted on the rocky ground, roared as if trying to tell the storm stories of the trees they belonged to, as the light given out was telling the story of the sunshine they had gathered in centuries of summers.
Camping in the foothills with a flock of sheep is simple and easy, but far from pleasant. The sheep were allowed to pick what they could find in the neighborhood until after sunset, watched by the shepherd, while the others gathered wood, made a fire, cooked, unpacked and fed the horses, etc. About dusk the weary sheep were gathered on the highest open spot near camp, where they willingly bunched close together, and after each mother had found her lamb and suckled it, all lay down and required no attention until morning.
Our glacier meadow camp north of the Soda Springs seems more beautiful every day. The grass covers all the ground though the leaves are thread-like in fineness, and in walking on the sod it seems like a plush carpet of marvelous richness and softness, and the purple panicles brushing against one’s feet are not felt. This is a typical glacier meadow, occupying the basin of a vanished lake, very definitely bounded by walls of the arrowy two-leaved pines drawn up in a handsome orderly array like soldiers on parade. There are many other meadows of the same kind hereabouts imbedded in the woods. The main big meadows along the river are the same in general and extend with but little interruption for ten or[Pg 230] twelve miles, but none I have seen are so finely finished and perfect as this one. It is richer in flowering plants than the prairies of Wisconsin and Illinois were when in all their wild glory. The showy flowers are mostly three species of gentian, a purple and yellow orthocarpus, a golden-rod or two, a small blue pentstemon almost like a gentian, potentilla, ivesia, pedicularis, white violet, kalmia, and bryanthus. There are no coarse weedy plants. Through this flowery lawn flows a stream silently gliding, swirling, slipping as if careful not to make the slightest noise. It is only about three feet wide in most places, widening here and there into pools six or eight feet in diameter with no apparent current, the banks bossily rounded by the down-curving mossy sod, grass panicles over-leaning like miniature pine trees, and rugs of bryanthus spreading here and there over sunken boulders. At the foot of the meadow the stream, rich with the juices of the plants it has refreshed, sings merrily down over shelving rock ledges on its way to the Tuolumne River. The sublime, massive Mount Dana and its companions, green, red, and white, loom impressively above the pines along the eastern horizon; a range or spur of gray rugged granite crags and mountains on the north; the curiously crested and battlemented Mount Hoffman on the west;[Pg 231] and the Cathedral Range on the south with its grand Cathedral Peak, Cathedral Spires, Unicorn Peak, and several others, gray and pointed or massively rounded.

May 9. 2022 - Most commentators and preachers focus on the centrality of solitude and prayer to the life and ministry of Jesus. What they rarely emphasize is the importance of place in these moments. By James Amadon
9 May 2022 - 5 min read
It is often noted that Jesus frequently and intentionally withdrew from human community to be alone and to pray. For instance, at the beginning of his public ministry, as word about him begins to spread, Mark tells us, "Very early in the morning, while it was still dark, Jesus got up, left the house and went off to a solitary place, where he prayed (1:35)."
Most commentators and preachers reflect on these episodes by emphasizing the centrality of solitude and prayer to the life and ministry of Jesus. What they rarely emphasize is the importance of place in these moments. For example, all four gospels tells us that Jesus often sought out mountains for his retreats.
Mark and Matthew both tell us that after Jesus feeds a crowd of several thousand people, he dismissed them and "went up on a mountainside by himself to pray (Mk. 6:46; Mt. 14:23)."
Luke tells us that "Jesus often withdrew to remote places and prayed (5:16), which includes an occasion when "Jesus went to a mountainside to pray, and spent the night praying to God (Lk. 6:12)."
Jesus did not reserve this practice solely for himself - Mark, Matthew, and Luke include a story about Jesus taking Peter, John, and James up on a mountain to pray (Mark 9:2; Mt 17:1; Lk 9:28).
Even John's gospel, which focuses heavily on Jesus' interaction with religious leaders in Jerusalem, includes an episode in which Jesus feels the need to get away from people. "Jesus, knowing that they intended to come and make him king by force, withdrew again to a mountain by himself (6:15)."
Did mountains simply provide Jesus with a convenient place to get away, or was there more going on?
The Place(s) of Prayer
It is important to remember that, in the Bible, encountering God in and through the created world is a primary experience. From the forest garden of Eden to the jagged peaks of Sinai to the immersive waters of the Jordan River, we see that the Earth is a temple, full of places in which the divine presence can be encountered. The poet of Psalm 139 captures this well:
Where can I go from your spirit?
Or where can I flee from your presence?
If I ascend to heaven, you are there;
if I make my bed in the depths, you are there.
and settle at the farthest limits of the sea,
even there your hand shall lead me,
and your right hand hold me fast.
This is not to exclude constructed places of prayer and worship, which are, though forged by human skill and craft, part of creation. The Bible upholds constructed sites such as the Tabernacle and Temple as special locus points of divine-human interaction. It must be remembered, however, that the designs of these sites were meant to reflect the larger created order and help worshipers recognize the sacredness of all creation.
Problems emerge when those in charge of constructed worship sites flip the script and position places of worship as exclusive sites of divine encounter and revelation. This enables religious leaders to maintain significant power and control, essentially regulating divine access. In addition to overplaying their role as mediators of God's presence, this also domesticates people's understanding of God, forgetting that "the God who made the world and everything in it is the Lord of heaven and earth and does not live in temples built by human hands" (Acts 17:24).
Back to Jesus and mountains. In Scripture, mountains are both symbolic and literal places where heaven and earth meet. As such, they encourage us to remember that God's intention for creation is the unification of all things. A Christian understanding of Jesus is that his incarnation accomplishes this coming together of heaven and earth, so it makes sense that he frequently sought out locations that connected his bodily experience of unity with that of the wider creation. It is no mistake that a moment of transfiguration, in which his divine/human glory is revealed to James, Peter, and John, happens on a mountain.
The opposite of a burning bush, but still worth pausing.
We may not be able to withdraw from our regular life and seek God on rugged mountain peaks, but if we see them as examples of how we might connect to God in and through natural places, we can find places of prayer in which heaven and earth feel a little bit closer. In the Celtic imagination, these are called "thin places."
How do you know you are in a thin place? While I hesitate to put too much structure around what is essentially a mystery, let me suggest that you are in a such a place when:
You recognize that you are a small (but important) part of something much larger than yourself, and you feel a sense of awe and wonder.
Your mind and heart are simultaneously drawn to the divine and the mundane - the heavenly and the earthly.
You are moved to gratitude, praise, and/or prayer.
You leave the place with a renewed sense of your self, the world, God, and the sacredness of all things.
You may have a special place that you return to - one of mine is a view of Lake Sammamish, framed by the foothills of Cascade mountains, with the white-capped peak of Tahoma (Mt. Rainier) appearing on clear days between two peaks. The view comes at one particular spot on a walk I take near my home, and I pause every time for a moment of thanks and praise. You may also be surprised to find thin places in unexpected locations - I was moved one snowy evening by a young tree, covered in snow, backlit by my neighbor's Christmas lights (pictured above). Nothing incredibly profound happened - it simply caught my attention, and as I lingered over it, I felt a deep sense of gratitude.
You can seek out thin places - just keep your eyes, ears, and heart open. You can also let God surprise you, for if the whole world is sacred, the distance between heaven and earth can disappear in a moment.

We arrive in Ketchikan early and have about four hours to explore this city. You really get a sense of how sparsely populated Alaska is when you find out that Ketchikan is in the top five population-wise. One thing it does have is a lot of is rain. It rains 90% of the time. With all the rain and there not being a whole lot of sunshine this far north in the winter anyway, it’s not surprising that there’s a high degree of alcoholism, domestic violence and suicide.
We don our raingear and go out to explore. There are houses built on stilts and a rushing stream that flows through town. The water is teeming with salmon that are trying to go upstream to spawn. Apparently there hasn’t been enough rain in the last week so the water is not quite deep enough for the king salmon to make the journey. They won’t use the fish ladder because they are too big. So they are gill to gill waiting for the water to rise.
There are also a ton of stores in Ketchikan. Selling stuff to tourists is a big industry. I’m not a good shopper but Karen and Peggy both got some pretty jewelry here.
Later, back on the boat, we play trivia for a second time and win in a tie breaker. Most of us are afraid to stick with our answers if they disagree with John’s. We need to be braver.
Dinner, show, bar, bed.

I cannot recommend Alex and his crew at Mac's Pubs more. They not only make amazing drinks and add a unique element to your party, but they put out the vibes so hard. They are an incredible team, super professional, amazing service, the drinks and the truck is a bonus. But what a bonus it is. My party was blown away by how great the drinks tasted and how different the bar set up was. I wish I could take the credit but I gladly gave them all the props. They were/are outstanding. Dont waste your time with the basic bars. It's your wedding day.
Having Mac's Pubs at our wedding was truly a unique craft bar experience! Their vintage trucks gave us all the feels and their bar is equipped with tons of antique treasures repurposed beyond your imagination. Not only do the bartenders 'look' cool in the stylish aprons but they're also very friendly and professional as well. The owner, Alex was super accommodating to all of our requests and he worked with us to ensure that the signature cocktails delivered everything we hoped to expect from an upscale mixology bar! I would highly recommend Mac's Pubs to anyone looking for an elevated bar experience at their event!
We hired Mac's Pubs based on two things - epic drinks and great humans. They will deliver on this and more, with professionalism leading up to the day in setting up your drink creation to making sure the small details that the couple doesn't often consider will be present at the bar. They have a great crew of bartenders that will make your guests laugh all evening and keep the party flowing with yummy alcoholic [and non!] all night. 10/10, 5 stars, all the applause for these guys. thank you!!!!
I thought that Mac's did a phenomenal job. They were extremely responsive and helpful in the months/weeks prior to our wedding. They were professional but lighthearted and pleasant to work with. The quality of their product, brand, and customer service was absolutely top notch. They provided exactly what we were hoping we would get. Alex was great to work with and the bartenders were professional and very friendly. The drinks were perfect, especially our custom cocktail. Their pricing was fair and in line with what we were hoping for. I'd recommend them 100 out of 100 times. In a world filled with mediocre service and underachieving businesses, its nice to have one that absolutely blew us away from every aspect of the experience. Thanks to Mac's Pubs!
Mac’s Pubs offers one of the most unique experiences for your wedding. The vintage flair of the trucks and bar decor perfectly match the outstanding cocktails that they create! They worked with us to invent our own signature cocktails and helped us perfect some amazing recipes. The bar staff was incredibly polite and always made sure our guests were enjoying their drinks. We will definitely use Mac’s Pubs for our next big event!
Excellent service and very amiable bartenders. Mac's Pubs did everything to accomodate our event, even two days before it. Everyone enjoyed their custom drink. Will recommend them without hesitation.
Alex and the team at Macs Pubs are the people, and the set up, and the vibe, that you NEED at your wedding! I was very selective about my vendors for my big day. Aesthetic, good vibes, and a good party were of utmost importance to me. They were a last minute addition to my vendor team (like, 2 weeks prior to the wedding type of last minute...oops!) but they were easily one of my favorite vendors of the whole day. Lesson learned from that - I got lucky with their availability...don't wait to book them because you will be BUMMED if they aren't available. First of all, lets talk about how cool their set up is...their truck set the tone for cocktail hour and the rest of the night along with their friendly and (handsome- never a bad thing!) bartenders who were conversational and super accommodating with my guests. It was as if Alex's sole purpose that night was to make sure I always had a drink in my hand, which I don't even know how he managed to do that so well because my guests kept the bar pretty busy! Not only was he awesome in the mix of everything, but later on I found out that he was helpful with "extinguishing" a few "fires" from dropped balls by other vendors and my appreciation only grew from there. By the end of the night I felt like I knew him forever and my husband and I were so stoked that they were able to be a part of our happiest day. If you're cool with having a standard bar with grumpy bartenders, boring linens and a long line thats shoved in the corner of your venue, Mac's Pubs isn't for you. If you want people who care about your experience on your wedding, have a super cool vibe, are professional yet still relatable and fun to be around - look no further! 10/10 would recommend. Now I just have to figure out a way to incorporate them in every party I throw from here on out!

Purpose for the ICF policy statement on the conduct or use of research
Coaching is one of the world’s fastest-growing professions. As the major association that represents that profession, ICF has the responsibility to formulate an explicit policy concerning its perspective on the relationship of research and coaching practice. A policy statement provides guidance and direction to both practitioners and researchers; empowers participants, contributors, stakeholders, coaching organizations and clients alike with regard to engaging in or utilizing research; enhances the legitimacy of ICF as a whole; serves a protective function in that it guides behavior and, at the same time, sets boundaries; enhances decision-making; facilitates evaluation; and defines priorities.
This policy is intended to apply to ICF staff, the ICF Board and its executive, members of the International Coaching Federation, and academic personnel or external vendors who wish to utilize ICF resources to engage in research on any aspect of coaching.
Not all information about coaching can be categorized as research. ICF’s working definition of research is: Research (including evaluation) is defined as any activity that involves the collection, collation, review or evaluation of data or information for the purpose of describing, maintaining or modifying activities, practices, interventions, or treatments. Research may involve the manipulation of variables or environmental factors whereas evaluation more typically involves the review of information for the purpose of providing feedback about the function, productivity or efficacy of an activity. Evaluation includes but is not limited to activities including needs assessments, process assessment, outcome studies, impact analysis, cost-benefit analysis and meta-analysis.
ICF encourages and endorses evidence-based practice (EBP) with respect to effective coaching. That is, ICF wants coaches to make solid decisions regarding the method or technique they use based on their ability to critically assess the best available, current, valid and relevant coaching evidence before applying it to day-to-day coaching practices. ICF believes combining the explicit knowledge derived from sound research, broadly defined, as above, with the more tacit or experiential knowledge of the coach practitioner is the synergistic sine qua non of effective coaching.
It is ICF policy to encourage and promote research activities that enhance the professional development and standards of the worldwide coaching community. ICF strives to collaborate with organizations and individuals that promote the highest standards of research to establish a discipline of coaching studies to support and further the profession. ICF seeks to facilitate the exchange of information among researchers and practitioners studying coaching theory, methodologies, and outcomes. Equally important, ICF seeks to make this information available to practicing coaches and those interested in the coaching profession. Specifically, ICF’s goals are to:
Increase the knowledge base concerning the art and science of coaching
Contribute to the advancement of coaching theory and the establishment of best evidence-based practices
Disseminate coaching research to the coach practitioner
Establish increased credibility for coaching as a discipline through the encouragement and support of best research practices and resulting theory development in coaching practice
Close the gap between coaching research and the practice of coaching by combining evidence-based practice with practice-based evidence
By the same token, research on coaching might be divided into two broad categories: 1) market-oriented or industry-related research on the coaching profession; and 2) research to gather evidence on coaching techniques, coaching core competencies, coaching methodologies, coaching outcomes, and coaching theories.
This kind of research on the coaching profession, on coaches and on coaching organizations often makes use of evaluative techniques and surveys conducted for the following purposes:
To track trends in the coaching profession so that ICF can best serve its membership
To assist the Board in making decisions regarding the future policies and directions of ICF
To provide information to member coaches on trends, coaching revenues, coaching practices, etc.
To facilitate ICF public relations (PR) efforts
In short, market-oriented research is the coaching profession’s way of looking at itself. ICF’s policy is to prioritize requests for information from its members and to protect them from repeated and unnecessary demands on their time and resources. Thus, the criteria for ICF participation in such surveys is the importance of the information to be gathered and the legitimacy of the researcher or organization conducting the survey balanced against the time and/or other resources demanded of members or other respondents.
2) Research to Gather Evidence on Coaching Techniques, Coaching Methodologies, Coaching Outcomes and Coaching Theories
The core purpose of ICF is to advance the art, science, and practice of professional coaching. Coaching is an applied profession, and its successful development requires a dialectic process among coaches and practitioners to develop a discipline that can support the profession, and vice-versa. It is assumed that a discipline of coaching requires a solid theoretical foundation that will strengthen the coaching profession and contribute to its ongoing development. The quality of coaching theory will be determined by a vibrant research community combined with practitioners who both utilize and contribute to research inside and beyond ICF.
Therefore, for both broad categories of research on coaching (delineated in 1 and 2 above), ICF will encourage and collaborate with researchers and organizations that are gathering evidence on any aspect of coaching, given the following limitations:
Researchers must be aware of and adhere to the ICF Code of Ethics.
The research must meet ethical guidelines for the treatment of human subjects such as those provided by the American Psychological Association.
Members of ICF must be protected from undue demands on their time and resources, and any requests must be consistent with ICF priorities and policies.
Internal or state-of-the-profession surveys may be commissioned from time-to-time by ICF.
Research Portal will be vetted by ICF.
The ICF Member Directory and CCF are intended to be used as a tool for potential coaching clients and ICF Members to connect with other ICF Members. The Directory is not to be used to promote or market products and/or services to ICF Members.
In order to protect our affiliates privacy, ICF will immediately refer these actions to our legal counsel; ICF expressly reserves all rights to take further action against those who violate our user agreement.
FTC indicates that the CAN-SPAM Act provides that “harvesting email addresses” is a violation of the Act that can give rise to criminal penalties, including imprisonment. Harvesting email addresses via unauthorized access to and use of email addresses secured from the ICF database and using those emails addresses to issue primarily commercial messages is a violation of the CAN-SPAM Act and subjects the sender to both significant civil fines ($16,000 per email) and criminal penalties.
The qualifications of coaches listed, and the information provided is not verified by ICF in any way. Individuals utilizing this database are urged to take reasonable steps to verify the qualifications of any potential coach. By utilizing the ICF Directories, you agree to hold ICF harmless from any and all claims which may arise as a result of your using the information provided and agree to adhere to the ICF Spam Policy and any other spam regulations that may apply.
Member/coach contact information included on ICF’s website is not posted for the purpose of promoting/marketing products/services to coaches. It is primarily posted for the purpose of allowing potential clients of a coach to connect with a coach. All other email and electronic communications with members should adhere to the following principles:
You should have a prior relationship with the person receiving your email. (Someone giving you their business card is acceptable in this regard, as it implies permission to get in contact. The same is true if someone has sent you an email.)
A valid “from” and “reply to” address must be included with each message.
If you have a subscription list, you should send a confirmation email that the person wishes to be on the list.
There should always be a quick way to unsubscribe from any mail list.
Any request to cease mailing from an individual or organization should be quickly honored.
A complaint involving a breach of this policy may be considered a violation of the ICF Code of Ethics, and therefore referred to the Independent Review Board for their consideration. Should they find a breach occurred, remedies may be required. Sanctions may also be imposed such as suspending or terminating the coach’s membership and/or credential with the ICF.
Please note that spam laws and regulations above and beyond ICF’s policies may apply to commercial electronic messages sent to individuals who have elected to list their contact information on the ICF website.

After a year of maintaining a ridiculously aggressive publishing schedule, Haiku Comics is going to be cutting back on the number of comics it publishes in 2010.
What? Haiku Comics won’t be publishing a new comic strip every Monday, Wednesday and Friday in 2010?
Read all about the changes to Haiku Comics schedule after the jump.

One year ago today, my brother took an idea I had and got it up and running faster than I thought was possible. Three panels and 17 syllables later haikucomics.com was another stop on the Internet highway. In those early days the sky was the limit and it was obvious that nothing would constrain our combined geniuses. Of course we had no idea just what we had created or how it would turn out, but we knew that A) we were funny as hell and B) we were twisted as hell.
In the upcoming year there will be some changes to Haiku Comics. We have come to learn what we can do, what we can’t do, and what we are able to do and stay sane. Some of these changes will be good, while others will be just that, changes. It is important to know that no matter what changes you see, both Nathan and I are committed to keeping Haiku Comics up and running. Or was that should be committed? Either way, Haiku Comics is not going away.
In the past year we have posted over 150 comics, created a book containing our first 100 comics, a coffee mug, gone to our first convention, started an online store, paid taxes, had a reader get a tattoo of Zombie Baby on their leg (Julie), and generally lost money. But, we have been doing something that we both enjoy, have stayed in touch more in the past year than the previous 10 years, and have come to enjoy bantering with our readers on the site.
So, on that last, sickly sweat note, I leave you now with those famous last word uttered by Socrates … I drank what?
Nathan December 30, 2009 3 Comments
With the end of the year approaching, I though now might be as good a time as any to catch everyone up on what web comics I’ve been reading lately. Can you believe that it’s been eight months since the last time I did this?
First off, if you’re not following Kristian Nygård’s Optipess, you’ve been missing out. I think the strip has a lot in common with Haiku Comics, both in the way the strips use action to tell a joke and in the frequent misfortune that befalls the characters. This is one of my favorites. And, according to Kristian, this strip was inspired by the Haiku Comics book. Kristian isn’t afraid to experiment with his comic and I’m really looking forward to seeing what he does with it in 2010.
Apparently, Neil Swaab’s Rehabilitating Mr. Wiggles can be found in newspapers, so I’m kind of bummed that I’ve just discovered it. Neil recently wrapped up a storyline that involved Mr. Wiggles, a stuffed bear, becoming God. In case you were wondering, this turned out to be a bad idea.
Moe by Michael Firman has given me more than one good belly laugh. I don’t know what exactly Moe is, but I’m not sure he should have been allowed to breed. But any comic that has a character named Cement Bag Head is okay with me.
Edgar R. McHerly’s Invisible Hair Suit is just strange. But it’s the kind of strange I find irresistible and hilarious. I really, really want Edgar to make a lot more of these.
If you are an adult and enjoy sexual humor, you should be reading Trudy Cooper’s Oglaf. It is ridiculously pornographic, however, so it’s probably not the best choice for passing the time at work. The strip is set in a fantasy sword-and-sorcery-type world, which often results in jokes like this one and this one. In case you were wondering, not all of the jokes are pornographic, just 99% of them. You’ve been warned.
At the complete opposite end of the spectrum is Becky Cloonan & Hwan Cho’s KGB. KGB is a serialized graphic novel about a Korean pop band. I’m undecided about the story — the characters are a bit weak at this point — but the artwork is gorgeous. Cloonan and Cho are a talented pair, so I’m really looking forward to seeing where they take this.
Whew! That’s a lot of comics. If you get through all of those, you might take a look at Atomic Laundromat by Armando Valenzuela, Fantasty by Lauren R. Hale, Woody After Hours by Ben Carter and Paul Westover, and Borked Planet by Jess Warren — who all have been kind enough to throw their support behind Haiku Comics over the past year.
Thanks to everyone for such a great year. Here’s to 2010! Happy new year!

Since the last set of iPhone wallpapers were well received, I decided to throw together a new set. Enjoy!

So, there has been some issues where Internet Explorer is showing the navigation bar under the comic as messed up. Well, it’s your fault. No, really, all your fault. See while Nathan changed the bar, the fact is that you, again, yes YOU, have your browser set to use cached information. Oh sure, this let’s the page load faster, but it means that it is using the old CSS information. (It’s OK if you don’t know what CSS stands for, we won’t make fun of you.) So, in order for the bar to show correctly I want you to do something for me … hit your F5 button. “But Robert, I don’t have an F5 button on my keyboard!” I hear you saying. That’s OK, just hit the refresh button in your browser and VOILA! instantly fixed navigation bar.
Also Nathan added a ‘Share’ button to help people spread the word about our little site, so click it :p

Just a reminder: Haiku Comics can sell you things that you can wrap in colored paper and give to other people.
Or, that you could even give to yourself, if you could set aside all of that self-loathing long enough to complete the transaction. Who knows?
But, really, who wouldn’t be overjoyed to find one of these in their stocking? I mean, if this world needs more of anything, it’s more zombie baby.
And if it helps keep Haiku Comics running, that’s a good thing too, right?
Why So Serious?
Robert November 14, 2009 No Comments
OK, so everyone has used that line since The Dark Knight came out, but sometimes it just works. The reason I am “so serious” is that I wanted to take this time to thank everyone who has purchased a book, mug, or some combination of the two so far. I especially want to thank their patience as we get this whole store thing worked out. That being the case, I have just finished packaging and printing out shipping labels for our current orders. OK, there is one that still has payment pending, but we still love you and will get your shipment out as soon as it clears :) So, on Monday, all of the nice packages above will be brought to our local post office, dropped off in the mail, and sail happily along to show up at your doorstep. Of course, the poor packages have no idea what perverted and sick things our readers will be doing to them, but hey, whatever goes on in the privacy of your own home is fine by us. So once again, thank you for your patience and your continued support of our site. Nathan and I do this because it’s fun, not to become rich. Although we wouldn’t mind becoming rich :)
Update
All orders where payment has been confirmed, including International orders were shipped today. Once again, thank you for your patience.

Horror spreads to print
Yes, the above haiku is true. The long awaited, never duplicated, Haiku Comics Store is now open. In it you can buy books, coffee mugs, t-shirts, alien spaceships, and much, much more!
Nathan: “Uh, Bob, no. They can’t buy alien spaceships”
Bob: “What? Well, books, coffee mugs, t-shirts and more at least, right?”
Nathan: “Well, sort of.”
Nathan: “One book and one coffee mug right now.”
Bob: “What?!?!? We will get more right?”
Nathan: “Oh yeah, working on that now, but for now, just the book and mug.”
Bob: “OK, yeah we can work with that.”
So there you have it. Right now you can buy the first 100 strips in book form and our very own Baby Zombie on a coffee mug. We do have plans to expand our wares in the near future. All we ask is that you have a little patience as we iron out the bugs. Currently we are getting all of the shipping supplies put together and hope to start sending out the first products by the end of this week. Until the link is put on the site, here is the link to the store if you want to check it out: http://store.haikucomics.com/
Well, it’s just after 5am here and before I call it a night, I wanted to mention that Bob and I compiled a list of our favorite horror movies which was published the other day over at Midnite Media. Jonny Metro asked us to put together a top ten list but, in an effort to one up everyone else, we decided to make it our top eleven. Nigel would be proud.
In other news, prints of a few of my illustrations can now be purchased online. For those wondering when Haiku Comics merchandise will be made available for sale, we should have some news on that front very soon.
Have a great weekend everyone!

I don’t know why I didn’t think of it sooner, but I realized yesterday that the comic panels in Haiku Comics are ideal for creating iPhone wallpapers. I’ve wanted to create some Haiku Comics desktop backgrounds for a long time, but I’ve been a bit perplexed as to how that would work. But iPhone wallpapers? No sweat!
After spending a little time digging through the archives, I picked out a couple of images that I thought would look good on the iPhone. I showed them to Bob and he gave his approval so, here you go — Haiku Comics first official set of iPhone wallpapers!
Are there any other images you’d like to see turned into iPhone wallpapers? Let me know and I’ll consider them for the next set.
Haiku Comics often pokes fun at the horror film genre and may contain humorous drawings of nudity and violence not suitable for children or the workplace.

Walking into the office, I would say that I finally understand how my dog felt being walked into the vet clinic on that fateful day. The office staff greeted me promptly and we even exchanged a few laughs and jokes about what was to come. This instantly made me feel better.
Dr. Snyder came in and started the procedure. I was very comfortable during the procedure, and again exchanged laughs to lighten to mood about a horrible Aprils Fools Day prank (as it was April 1st). Dr. Snyder was very professional and informative; and the procedure was a lot quicker than I had anticipated. Heading home, I made sure I read through the post op procedures (to keep my mind off of things, as I had already read it a few times) and then followed these to a T. I took it easy over the weekend, with minimal strain and unnecessary movement was kept to a minimum. After the first full day, the discomfort was almost completely gone. I continued to take it easy throughout the weekend, and returned to work on Monday with no discomfort.
I was pulled in by website “nostork.com” as this appealed to my sense of humor, but the process and staff will be what allows me to confidently refer this office to anyone interested in getting this procedure done.

Owners Kara Sax and Tamara Keller of The Sax Agency have been making major noise in the areas of branding, collaborative marketing, project management, advertising, and media as a whole. As a certified Black, woman-owned marketing and consulting agency, their portfolio spans a large and diverse client base. From dealing with Fortune 100 companies, athletes and entertainers, to startup brands and nonprofit organizations, these women make things happen for their clients.
Tell us how your partnership came about.
About 12 or 13 years ago we were introduced by mutual friends. As women we tend to have that instinct when we meet people, whether or not they will be for a moment or for life. We both knew we were “lifers” from the moment we met.
What made you start The Sax Agency?
We moved to Los Angeles around the same time both dealing with significant shifts in our personal lives, which led to us both leaving our corporate jobs and stepping out on faith to tap into our creative sides.
When we decided to move to L.A., Kara was speaking with a friend who happened to work in VH1’s unscripted division about a show concept we had and they got us an opening to come in and pitch the show! It was a whirlwind experience, as we ended up pitching our show to many major networks—BET, WeTV, etc. In the process, we researched and hired who was supposed to be “the best” marketing firm. We were sorely disappointed in their marketing presentation, work, strategy, and just overall execution. We immediately thought since we saw all these glitches in the matrix, and all of those skills came naturally to us, that this might be our calling … and here we are nine years later.
How does The Sax Agency plan on finishing the year strong in the midst of a pandemic?
Doubling down on investing in ourselves, continuing to be students of our craft, and plain old hard work. When the pandemic happened, we recognized this moment in time as the “Great Equalizer” and in many ways, businesses across the globe were starting over. We confidently took our position and took off. Our ability to be proactive and focused on moving forward was critical. We are now walking in our season of abundance and chance-taking and have refused to look back. We have kicked the roof off the self-imposed glass ceiling over our heads and realized that we in fact can go confidently toe-to-toe with the best firms in the industry. We are prouder than ever to not only lead with our talents, but also with the fact that we are a proud, strong, Black women-led agency. Our clients continue to “word of mouth” us to new heights.
What advice would you give to the aspiring female entrepreneur who is feeling discouraged in the environment that the world is in today?
Both of us are very spiritual people, prayer is how we start, get through, and end our day. Our advice is to focus on aligning your goals and objectives and making sure that your work ethic matches. Prioritize personal development work daily, show yourself compassion, and embrace a growth mindset. Be ready to take a risk, stay agile and connected with what feels right in your soul. We also have tried to practice more of a work/life balance than we had pre-pandemic—meaning we make sure we set aside time for family, working out, and reading. Making time to clear your mind is as important as any other appointment we fill our calendars with, especially in times like these.
From a monetary perspective, one of the keys to our success has always been “never be afraid to pivot.” We started out as production firm and are now a marketing agency for some of the most well-known brands in the country. In the process, we’ve also invested in restaurants, subscription boxes, and many other industries. They say the average millionaire has seven streams of income—so we are always looking for opportunities to dabble in industries that interest us.
We are focused more than ever on contributing our time and money to cause-related projects and also expanding our agency’s reach—really aiming to not only exponentially grow revenue but maximizing our footprint in the industry. We want to sit on more boards and lend our voices to contribute to impactful D&I work. We want to leave a legacy. We are serial entrepreneurs and always have other irons in the fire. Out of everything, however, we are most excited about the book we are releasing later this year on self-sabotage. The book will provide both personal and professional testimonies from us both about how decisions we’ve made or have seen others make have impeded growth in many areas. This book is essential reading for all young professionals.

My GOD, Italia ’90 was crap. There’s been a recent attempt to rehabilitate the tournament on the basis of the long-term impact of England’s relative success. But I’m not about to join in. After I wondered aloud how a team as bad as West Germany were in 1982 and 1986 could reach consecutive finals (compare and contrast with the Netherlands in 1974 and 1978), along came Argentina in 1990. Bobby Charlton demanded Argentina’s expulsion from FIFA after their antics in the final. This suggested he still had issues from the 1966 quarter-final (Alf Ramsey calling them “animals” etc…). More likely, however, was that good a man though he is, xenophobia was his default option. It’s a generational thing.
But Argentina were petulant and nasty and terrible. Ireland were just terrible. And I say that as a fan who rejoiced as much as any second-generation Irishman as they marched to the quarter-finals without losing…but without winning and barely without scoring. England were mixed. The day after the goalless draw with the Netherlands, TV satire puppet show Spitting Image ran a spoof of Bobby Robson’s post-match press conference. The puppet Robson went through his usual excuses for failure while journos screamed that “No…NO…Bobby, you played quite well.”
Holland apart, they were only any good in the semi-final. I was fearful and exhilarated in equal measure as Cameroon outplayed them in the quarter-final to the point of ushering in a new world footballing order. And the games against Ireland, Egypt and Belgium were unremitting tedium for the most part. So too were Cameroon in the earlier stages. Famous late wins over Rumania and Colombia only came after eighty-minute spells where nothing happened…AT…ALL. And apart from using Claudio Caniggia’s legs as target practice, all they did in the “famous” opening win over the defending champions was “out-Argentina Argentina.” And, boy, was that ugly. The England/West Germany match was the tournament’s best, just shading West Germany/Holland – the game where Rudi Voller was sent-off for being spat at by Frank Rijkaard. Twice. My God, Italia ’90 was crap.
USA ’94 was nothing like as bad. But the games didn’t seem ‘real’ somehow. They felt more like video-game simulations than real matches. “This is actually soccer,” a friend of mine said, and I sort of knew what he meant. And Ireland were even worse than in 1990. Nigeria’s thrilling destruction of Bulgaria suggested another new world order was dawning. Not even John Fashanu’s relentless name-checking of his “mate” Stephen Keshi, who wasn’t even playing, could detract from the sheer joy on Rashidi Yekini’s face as he grabbed the back of the net into which he’d just tapped Nigeria’s opening goal. But just as in 1990, my more vivid memories weren’t great footballing ones. For instance, Gianfranco Zola, now of course the nicest man in football ever, being sent-off within seconds of his substitute appearance for Italy against Nigeria. When people talk of players being sent-off “for nothing,” hyperbole is usually involved. Zola was sent-off for nothing. And there was FA head honcho Graham Kelly frazzling in the sun in his ill-advised FIFA suit, every inch the holiday camp comic. Only funny.
My favourite game, like everyone else I’m sure, was Belgium v Saudi Arabia. The Belgians were clearly shooting a video entitled “Seven ways to miss an open goal,” and did two takes of each sitter, just in case (“hilariously and often,” wrote When Saturday Comes in describing how Belgium did it). Meanwhile, the Saudi’s Saeed Al-Owairan slalomed his way through about nine tackles in a pitch-length run which only ended because the Belgian goal got in the way. It was the best World Cup finals goal since, well, forever. And it would surely be acknowledged as such if it had been scored by a “real” football nation. In 1990, I’d watched England v Belgium in the pub with a friend. We were the only two customers. Football-watching culture had changed by 1998, with many fans choosing the communal experience over a Sky TV subscription. And so ingrained was the habit that people packed out the hostelries, despite the tournament being free-to-air on terrestrial TV (or because of it when Jimmy Hill or Bob Wilson were on).
My France ’98 memories are therefore a mixture of joy and haze, now just as fondly recalled for the venues as the football, especially London’s Civil Service Club, at £1-a-pint, which, in those days, was not a lot of money (I’m told the Brazil/Holland semi-final was a classic, but…).. The stand-out match, though, I watched at home. Holland’s quarter-final against Argentina was already a classic before Dennis Bergkamp scored that goal. Even Daniel Ortega’s sending-off was a stand-out, in a tournament where the innocuous challenge was a red-card offence. Before their shambolic on-and-off field display in and around the final, Brazil were more like Brazil than their “European-style” (trans: dull) teams of 1990 and 1994. Holland were as good as they’d been since the 70s, even if Bergkamp should be have been out of the tournament for his violent assault on a badly-dressed Yugoslav in the second round.
France were, famously, one in the eye for politician Jean Marie Le-Pen and his odious, racist National Front. Germany were hilariously bad against Croatia. Even England weren’t bad. And Scotland were…no…I’ll stop there. But it’s Paraguay I remember, for a terrific backs-to-the-wall display against France in the second round. Arrogant, fat, goal-scoring goalkeeper Jose-Luis Chilavert transformed from pantomime villain/horse/donkey, into an inspirational captain, geeing up his defenders as they went about their business to the backdrop of a nation screaming “get out of the way” as another Gallic drive hits another backside, knee, left testicle, anything (and with a defender called Arce, I mean ANYthing. AND Chilavert getting booked for time-wasting after 19 minutes. Sheer joy. Such games are, strangely, better remembered if they end up as heroic failures. And you couldn’t have had a more heroic failure than Paraguay against France in 1998. Chilavert was named goalkeeper and captain of the BBC’s “team of the tournament.” No-one saw that coming.
South Korea started “their” tournament as plucky underdogs and did nothing throughout it to diminish their popularity everywhere (leaving aside North Korea), until three unfeasibly gorgeous Italian women walked into the pub where we were about to watch the South Korea/Italy game, and it was “Forza Italia” all the way. Disgraceful. For that game was as fixed as has subsequently been claimed, the fixers would have had to rely on Italy’s Christian Vieri missing an open goal from four yards and a bit with two minutes left in normal time and the score 1-1. So…um… The dodgier game was Spain’s defeat in the quarters, where all sorts of line decisions went against the Spaniards – a third umpire would still be looking if we’d had a cricketing review system. And if Spain had struck a winning penalty in he shoot-out you wouldn’t have put it past the officials to give a goalkick
France were dreck but only went home scoreless after their considerable involvement in the best 0-0 draw I’ve ever seen, against Uruguay in their second group game. Even Fabian Barthez briefly looked like a goalkeeper rather than the Andy Parsons stunt-double we now know he is. But the tournament week I spent in Ireland was the most fun, thanks to Eamon Dunphy – a knowledgeable pundit but increasingly a professional controversialist, with a combative style that got him the “Weakest Link” gig in Ireland (his craggy features put you in mind of Anne Robinson without the botox…ugh…). RTE had him in the studio for Japan’s Sunday morning group game against Russia. And they quickly realised how inadvisable it was to ask Dunphy’s views on…ANYthing… after a Saturday night in Dublin. The sound was down on the TV in my hotel reception. But I could see him sinking into his chair, slowly but perceptibly, staring into the middle-distance, the eyes suggesting that Hidetoshi Nakata wasn’t the focus of his attention. An empty chair greeted us as the cameras returned to the studio at half-time, as Dunphy went home for a nap, and RTE scoured the dictionaries for euphemisms for “high as a feckin’ kite,” just in case the profoundly scurrilous allegations were true.
I didn’t see Zidane’s head-butt. I was at a comedy club on the evening of the 2006 final. The incident was in the compere’s set before the night was through but I never even saw the highlights of the game. And now, according to BBC 3’s recent execrable World Cup’s most shocking moments, FIFA won’t let me see it. So I never will. Bad, was it? A lot of good football was played and just about none of it by England. After a decade of complaints about how poor England were when, largely, they weren’t, the media had nowhere to turn when England finally lived down to the hype in Germany. Memories might be less fond still if Peter Crouch hadn’t cheated to head England in front against Trinidad & Tobago – the hair-pull of God? But the sight of a pub full of relatively thoughtful England fans’ faces reddening as the Soca Warriors held on and on was something to behold. Punters were eating their beer glasses in frustration. I was eating mine to stop laughing.
I recall 2006 as better than the goals-per-game ratio of once-in-a-blue moon suggests. The stand-out match was Argentina/Mexico, especially the first-half, which had the proverbial “lot.” And Maxi Rodriguez’s over-the-shoulder winner emphasised that Liverpool bought him one World Cup year too late. Germany’s semi-final against Italy was a remarkable game for a semi-final. And their win over Poland had the sort of slow-burning drama which appealed to me, as they got closer and closer to grabbing the winning goal before finally doing so in stoppage time.And against a dysfunctional Brazil with a fat Ronaldo, France perfected the art of taking free-kicks while the opposition left-back is tying his shoelaces. Roberto Carlos, it is understood, wears slip-ons to this day.
On the down side, there was Switzerland v Ukraine. There were no offsides in Switzerland v. Ukraine. I almost wish I’d turned over for the tennis. Almost. And who could forget Tunisia’s contribution to the feast of football? You too, eh? Still, Gordon Strachan starred again. As the BBC’s Jake Humphrey sought Strachan’s opinion during one highlights programme, Strachan looked at him and said: “Sorry, Jake, I wasnae listening. But I agree wi’ everything you said, you’ve got an honest face.” Well, it made me laugh. So did Graham Poll. Tee-hee.

The leading general glanced at the trembling and helpless Xiangxiu, a weak woman who didnt pay attention to them, and urged, Hurry up and get on the carriage Ye Xun pulled Xiangxiu and walked to the door It turned out that the fragrance came from here, and Ye Xun suddenly realized She didnt care too much, walked to the table and put down Yuxiao, and then went to the window to check the surrounding movement.

What a handsome boy! Ye Xun couldnt help but praised in his heart it would be nice Ye Xuns body stiffened for an instant when she heard Shen Guimus name Yuan Cheng who was close to her naturally felt it clearly.
Ye Xun and Shen Guixi hurriedly leaned down in the corner outside the window, watching the room vigilantly, waiting for the signs of the visitors Theres a fire! Its on fire.
Yuan Cheng sneered and watched Xiao Ruochens murderous intent gradually emerge The person in front of him was his father and enemy, and his confidant on the road to the throne Right now is the best time to start Your Highness.
Shengsheng pierced her heart The world is impermanent, the glory and wealth are overwhelming Compared with the mediocre life, more experience is not a bad thing Ye Xun smiled peacefully and they were covered by Luoxueyan which several Turkic soldiers did not hear As they approached holding the lantern, they searched everywhere.
Shen Guimu, who was painting with her back facing her, couldnt help but sigh Ye Xun snorted unconvincedly, Its not all to serve you, the eldest master in clothes who came to reach out and open his mouth Wen Zhao?!

he looked up at Ye Xuns back, and his heart sank As the figures of the people approaching gradually, Ye Xun can also distinguish their clothes Huh? The dressing of these people seems to be the kind of.
She wanted to open her mouth and say this, but her body didnt let her behave at all It seemed that she didnt even have the strength to open her mouth, and her mind gradually became blurred Seeing Xu Ling about to come in, Xiao Ruochen struggled to raise his hand Before Xu Ling breathed a sigh of relief, there was another tight noise.
In the courtyard, the wooden windows barely conceal the four walls of vigorexin male enhancement the front hall, and the tall bamboo poles in front of the threshold are hung with canvas, which is blown by the wind.
with fierce fluctuations From time to time, small drops of water splashed on the bow and wet the railings The speed of the boat is fast.

At this domino male enhancement Hgh Supplements That Work definition of male enhancement best male performance supplement moment, she is missing her family, but where is her family now? Where did you get exiled?

Forget it, he has no obligation to worry about this for the Shen family If the young master has no other orders, the slave and maid will retreat She took a step back and bowed coldly Walk in such a hurry Ye Xun speeded up two steps to rush forward, and took a closer look, and immediately staggered back two or three steps, couldnt help bending down, and the feeling of vomiting repeatedly hit his chest.
After pushing his opponent back with one move, he just took a cold look at the young man who was hiding in the crowd with his wrist The entourage who fought him took a step back, Fang stood firm, and looked at Shen Guixi in amazement Finally killed the heartless person Shen Yun, but I didnt expect that the traitor Shen Ya was even more vicious and sinister than him There was a severe viciousness in her eyes.
As if not hearing the dissatisfaction in Ye Xuns words, Xiao Ruochen continued happily, Daddy said, I have made great progress natural male enhancment in martial arts recently Time to let me go with me too Autumn Hunting? Ye Xuns heart moved She suddenly remembered the royal daily etiquette taught by the female teacherhot rod male enhancement 12 pills per month Hgh Supplements That Workorganic male enhancement pills over the counter .
its quite satisfactory On the second day after returning from the imperial palace, Ye Xun had already embarked on his plan to raise the family He glanced at Xiao Ruochen and asked coldly Then what do you say should be done? From the opinion of a minister, the most appropriate charge is Xiao Ruochen took another step forward Almost close to the ear of the emperor The emperor involuntarily stepped back slightly, but felt his waist stiffened Only then did he remember that he was standing next to the bookcase.
Faced with this attitude, Shen Ya thought of the news that she had entered the palace a few days ago, but she was afraid that Xiao Ruolan was greedy for the queens beauty and wealth but changed her heart and deliberately pretended not to know him In order to break the relationship Dont worry, Miss, you only slept for a day Now The little girl turned her head and took a more missed glance Its already the second time now.
Lu Jin, and Shen Ya, Who is it? He murmured, but after a while the melancholy condensed on his brows gradually melted, and the corners of his mouth raised a chuckle, Whoever it is Dont let me down too much.
How could he know that this was wrong? After thinking about it, Ye Xunyu said earnestly, It is wrong to steal all the hard money of others for a lifetime Even if these are illgotten wealth.
Residents in nearby shops closed their doors one after another, and the roads with few pedestrians were now extinct, leaving only the cold and cold wind blew away out of thin air Finally leaving the scene of the fire temporarily, the two walked quickly to the front yard, but after a few steps, Shen Guixi staggered and almost fell Relying on the trees next to him, this stabilized his figure.

Still I am not getting any good news about the publication of the newly adopted urban land lease law. I will be posting on this new law the moment I get access to it. The following material, taken from Land Law Teaching Material, an official text book for all Ethiopian law schools, is a must-read to get a glimpse of the nature, content and scope of Ethiopian urban land lease law. It thoroughly discusses and analyses the Lease Holding of Urban Lands Proclamation No. 272/2002 (which is amended or may be totally repealed by the new law.)
The material is prepared by :
Under the sponsorship of:
The material (taken From Chapter Three) is presented here as it is.
Today, in Ethiopia, lease is the “cardinal” and “exclusive” land-holding system to transfer urban land to users in accordance with the master plans of each urban area. Hence, unlike the housing sector, urban land is governed by a special legislation, namely, the Lease Holding of Urban Lands Proclamation No. 272/2002. And yet the civil code may be applied whenever necessary. The scope of application of the law is “to an urban land held by the permit system, or by lease-hold system or by other means prior” to the coming of the proclamation “as well as to an urban land permitted hereafter.”
The leasehold right is a right to use the land for fixed period of time against payment of agreed amount of money. The assumption is that any person who fulfills the requirements is entitled to get land by way of lease. Pursuant to article 4 of the urban landholding lease proclamation, an urban land shall be permitted to be held by lease:
a) in conformity with plan guidelines where such – a plan exists, or, where it does not exist, in conformity with the law which Region or City government makes, as the case maybe, and
b) on auction or through negotiation ;or
c) according to the decision of Region or City government.
The Amharic version of sub-c is different from the English one in that the former is applicable to urban dwelling houses. Means the regional government may approve directive which allows urban dwellers to get land for housing free of charge, without negotiation etc. This is said because in practice this is happening in all urban centers of the country. The lease regulation of the city of Addis Ababa and other regions clearly show that urban dwellers may get a fixed land for residential houses free of charge. This is one character this lease legal framework shares with the proc. 47/1975.
Once a person gets land by one of the three mechanisms, he/she is entitled to get leasehold title deed. This is a certificate that proves the lessee’s rights to the land. What kind of rights does this title deed provide? Once if a person buys the lease right s/he has the right to construct a building of different nature (residential, commercial, industrial) as per the agreement and the master plan. Hence the right of use and enjoyment is one right conferred on the lease right holder. Another right is that the lease right can be inherited, donated, or mortgaged provided that the beneficiary’s rights are limited by the period of the lease term. Finally, the lease can be sold or exchanged to any person. Article 13 of the proclamation provides the kinds of rights. As per sub-article 1 of this article “any lease holder may transfer, or undertake surety on (mortgage), his lease-hold; and he may also use it as a capital contribution to the amount of the lease payment he has made.”
It must be noted that this right shall be enjoyed so long as some form of construction/activity has been taken place; in other words bare land is not subject to all the above rights. This point is also understandable from the reading of Article 12 and Article 13(2) (3) of the proclamation. Article 12 requires the leasehold possessor to “begin to use the land for the prescribed activity or service within the period of time set…” The time set for commencement of activities may vary from 18-30 months as the case may be as emphasized in different municipal regulations. The second point is that the concept of real estate that we discuss in the beginning, that land constitutes the ground and the building, is reemphasized once again under article 13. This article in short says that mortgaging a use right of land includes a building constructed on it and the accessories thereto, and conversely the mortgage of a building and its accessories includes the use right of the land. Similarly, sub 3 of same article says that land right and the construction upon it are inseparable in that during default of payment both rights should be transferred to the creditor.
As one can clearly observes that leasehold right provides all the rights and privileges that private land can do. The only difference is the degree of security and restriction. Concerning this point, Farvacque and Mc Auslan give interesting explanation:
Essentially, the crux of the legal difference between freehold and leasehold is that the freeholder (private owner) is bound by the laws of the land and nothing else. Whereas the leaseholder is bound, in addition, by the terms of the lease laid down by the landlord. The leaseholder is then less free and unrestricted in his or her use of land than is the freeholder (p.199.)
As we shall discuss below even private ownership is not an absolute one, it is subject to different limitations, such as town plan, public interest, environment etc. The clear difference between the private ownership of land and the leasehold right is the time element, in that the latter is limited by time as we shall discuss it later on. The limitation in time may create some how insecurity on the lessee and as a result inhibits the lessee from making further investments. On the other hand it can be said that for those lease agreements taking longer years, such as 99 or 70 years, people may not be inhibited from making additional investments.
Leasehold tenure-ship and its implication
Land tenure could be expressed as the possession and use of land by individuals or groups for limited or unlimited period of time. According to Oxford dictionary (1998), tenure is defined as the condition or form of right or title, under which real property is held. Ethiopia has endorsed different tenure systems.
In theory, public leasehold does appear to be a compromise because the system allows the state to remain as the landowner and lease the development. The use rights of land go to private individuals. However, in practice, it does not matter who the landowner could be. It could be the government or private landlords who have real control over land but what matters would be depending on how lease conditions are constructed (Bourassa and Hung Hong 2003).
Chen (1990) has pointed the comparison of the land policies of China and western countries. He has stated out that,
What distinguishes the private ownership and public ownership over land is their differing point of departure. In the west, where land has long been privately owned, the state exerts control by regulation: in China, where the point of departure is state ownership, similar results are achieved in a more proprietary manner- through the use of leasing contracts.
What is being reflected by Chen (1990) sounds quite right for countries in transaction. What was discovered one among the most reasonable route to the transaction into a vibrant land and housing market has been the adoption of a public leasehold policy. This option could be regarded as a transitory alternative to the building of a well functioning market economy. This is what Ethiopia is trying to achieve. In particular a shift of land holding from strict public ownership to semi-private or to full private would bring social unrest. It needs to consider the steps performed a country like China where there was a profound communist regime and a country with a highest population of the world. Moreover, China’s experience in this regard is often cited as one of the best practices in stimulating the urban land and housing sector along the free market lines. Thus, Tung Pi Chen’s conclusion in this case is an additional testimony to the success story.
As Knaap et.al. (2003) have described regarding the separation of use rights and land ownership.
In the current property rights regime, use rights for specified period (eg 40 to 70years) can be obtained from the state through the up-front payment of land use fees. The fees are determined by the location, type and density of the proposed development. This separation of land ownership and use rights allows the trading of land use rights while maintaining state ownership of land.
Knaap and his colleagues have point out three advantages, which the Chinese government has achieved. First, market mechanisms could help and guide the allocation of land resources; second, land use fees would provide local government with a new resource of revenues, and third, by retaining state ownership, social and political conflict would be minimize.
Theoretically, leasehold would bring social, economical and environmental benefits. All would agree with the idea of the economic advantage of land.
Economists frequently refer to land along with labour, capital, and management as one of the basic factors of production. Land as property has legal connotations and could be described as individuals or groups have been exercise rights of ownership and use they hold in land. And from stand point of the average investors, land must be purchased or leased like other capital goods, so land could be described as capital.
….Where land is state owned, the mere advantage of the local governments is, they can reserve land for housing construction and infrastructure developments. In addition, the purpose of land lease would be reserving land for residential uses with no cost. Otherwise the high cost of land would affect the low and middle income groups. For instance in Canberra Australia, among all purposes of land leasing, reserves land for buildings, foreign embassies and other public infrastructure appears to be most achievable (Bourassa and Hung Hong 2003).
As we try to touch it in the preceding part, lease is different from private ownership because its enjoyment right is limited in time. Unlike rural land, urban land is granted to urban dwellers and investors on the bases of restriction. In the current property right situation, use rights are provided for a specific period (it could be for 15 or 99 years) obtained from the landowner who shall be the state through ground rent payment. Therefore the landownership and use rights are separated and make the state out of full control over the land. Article 6 of the proclamation provides different periods of years for different types ground leases.
1) The, period of lease shall vary depending on the level of urban development and sector of development activity or the type of service and shall have the ceiling of:
1) up to 99 years for housing (personal and leasable), science, technology; research ,and study, government office, non-profit-, making philanthropist organization, religious institution; ,
3) as per government agreement for diplomatic missions and international organizations;
(b) In Addis Ababa and in a town designated as of the grade of Addis Ababa:
1) up to 90 years for education, health, culture, sports;
3) up to 50 years for commerce;
4) up to 50,years for others.
(c) In other towns not designated as of the Grade of Addis Ababa;
1) up to 99 years for education, health, culture, sports;
3) up to 70yem for commerce;
4) up to70 years for others.
Students are invited to make more research on what the law means by cities designated as grade of Addis Ababa. It is also a good research area to investigate the different lease regulations issued by the city of Addis Ababa and other regions concerning the ceiling of the lease period and manner of payment, area of land allowed free of charge for residential areas and etc.
Now the next logical question is what will happen after the expiry of the period of the lease agreement? Should the lease continue or be terminated? What will happen to the improvements made to the land? Think about it and compare your guess with what we shall discuss below.
Lease holding right may be terminated for good reasons; the state has no right to revoke this right whenever it wishes. Like any contractual agreement the expiry of the lease contract may be a reason for termination of the lease hold right. However, unlike lease of housing, the lessee has a better position. The municipality may not take back the land whether before or upon the expiry of the lease agreement unless the land is needed for public interest based works.
The lease hold possessor has the right to request for renewal of the period of lease agreement, 10 to 2 years before the final day of the agreement.
Art.7: Renewal of Period of Lease
1) Period of lease may, upon the termination thereof, be renewed for the lease-hold possessor as per the agreement to be reached, unless the urban land is wanted for public interest. Where the lease period is not renewed upon termination on account of the land being wanted for public interest however, compensation shall not be paid to the lease-hold possessor.
2) Period of lease shall be renewed for the lease-hold possessor in pursuance with the stipulations of Sub-Article (1) of this Article if only he has applied in ,writing to the appropriate body, to that effect within 10 years and not exceeding2 years before the termination of the period of lease.
3) The appropriate body must notify to the applicant in writing its decision within 1 year after the application has been lodged with it. It shall be deemed as though it has agreed to the renewal if it fails to do so within I year after the receipt of the application
One can clearly see that renewal is the rule. The lease holder must apply as early as possible to secure his/her rights. The municipality is given a maximum of one year to notify its decision to the lessee. The assumption is that unless the ground is needed for more socially advantageous activities (for public interest) the municipality shall renew the agreement. It must also be noted that the terms of agreement especially the rent and manner of payment as well as other conditions shall be based on current conditions. In other words, the renewed lease agreement may not contain similar particulars as that of the expired one.
This approach is also well known in different countries. The reason behind protecting the lease hold possessor is that because of the investments already made on the ground. People may build residential houses, commercial, agricultural, industrial and so on buildings on the ground, and it would be unjust and unfair if the government is going to take back the land just to sale it to another person. This would create insecurity upon lease holders which would again discourage them from making additional investments on the ground land they leased. It is also categorically against the interest of the state for demolition and reconstructing of structures is expensive one. Secondly, people will not build good buildings for fear of losing them.
1) The lease-hold of urban land shall be terminated:
(a) where the lease-hold possessor has failed to use the land in accordance with Sub-Article (1) of Article 12;
(b) where it is decided to use the land for a public interest; or
(c) where the period of lease is not renewed
The lease proclamation provides three basic reasons for the termination of the contract. It seems the first and third reasons are happening on account of the failure of the lease-hold possessor him self. Because, failure to commence the activity on the ground within the agreed time and in accordance with the plan and failure to request renewal of the lease agreement are impugned on the lease-holder himself. The second reason is however, accountable to the state, and as a result the lease-hold possessor shall be “paid commensurate compensation” for his lose of the property. In case of the first and third cases however there is no any compensation to be paid.
Expropriation of leasehold right and Compensation
As we shall dealt it with, when discussing expropriation at the last part of this material, expropriation is one means of land acquisition for the state. It is a procedure whereby the state takes away private owned land property for public interest without the consent of the owner and against payment of fair amount of compensation. The subject of expropriation is not only privately owned land and building but also leased land. The lease proclamation gives hints of such possibilities under articles 7(1), 15 (1) (b), and 16. Expropriation of leasehold land may be effected during the expiry of the lease agreement (7(1)), or before the expiry of the agreement as can be inferred from Article 15 (1) (b), and 16 (1). According to article 7, the state may refuse renewal and take back the land when the land is needed for public purpose. The law also emphases that in such case compensation is not to be paid. Hence we can argue that the taking back of the land doesn’t amount to expropriation. Only leasehold right which is active is compensable. Do you think it is just to deny compensation for the property constructed?
(1) The appropriate body may clear and take over an urban land which it decides it is necessary to commit for a public interest by issuing clearance order in writing to the concerned person. It shall also publicize the order through other alternative means.
The point is that where a leasehold right has been taken away by the state for good reasons/public interest (such as to build hospital, roads, schools, etc), the state must compensate the leasehold possessor for the property on the land and the remaining lease rent. Regulation No.135/2007 that provides for “The Payment of Compensation for Property Situated on Landholdings Expropriated for Public Purposes,” under article 13 provides the formula. Now concerning compensation for buildings the amount of compensation should be calculated by taking the following in to consideration:
cost of permanent improvement on land
the amount refundable money for the remaining term lease contract
The leasehold possessor is going to be refunded if he had made full or prior payments the rent.
The fact that lease hold right is a secured one and can give protection to the holder is even more clear when one looks to sub article 2 of article 16 which concerns squatting. That illegal settlers (squatters) may be evicted from the land they hold with out any payment of compensation.

[dropcap]My name is Sam[/dropcap] and I was recently diagnosed with ulcerative colitis in July 2014. Lucky me! I am 25, a recent graduate, and science educator for a small science museum. My diagnosis has changed my life in some unsuspecting ways (I never expected my life to revolve around bowl movements, but here we are!).
Some more about Sam:
I am an outdoor enthusiast and Oregon native. That being said, I do enjoy a good netflix marathon (good thing too, I’ve had more than my fair share since my diagnosis).
A little background info: I was raised by two inspiring people who’s hearts are always in the right place. They instilled in me my biggest values: love, loyalty, a respect and awe for the natural world, and to question everything. Since my diagnosis every one of these values has been tested in inexplicable ways, and it has only been a few (albeit very long) months! I graduated about a year ago, took the winter to play while working at a ski resort, and recently moved to a small town in northern Idaho, chasing love.
I ignored my symptoms for a shameful amount of time, not wanting to face a diagnosis. In the long run though, denial probably made things worse, and I have a lot of healing to do! I currently go once or twice a day, and usually do not see blood (a very recent phenomenon). I do have some bloating/cramping/pain in my left colon pretty regularly. To top it off every month while I’m menstruating, my symptoms worsen, and I have to really watch what I eat.
I cannot do cow lactose, period. Occasionally I will eat some very, very aged cheese (super low in lactose). I have made a complete transition to goat-only dairy, and no fresh goat cheese. I also cut out gluten for the most part, and the only starchy food I eat is rice. Changing my diet has drastically changed my life! I was food obsessed before my diagnosis, always experimenting with new things. Now, its a few basic staples like goat yogurt, fish, chicken, squash, and almond/coconut everything. I have a relentless sweet tooth, and am always on the prowl for a treat I can easily digest. Coffee has been the most difficult to let go of, and is the first thing I go to when I feel well.
Although I am taking daily medication for my UC, if I deter from my simple diet too often, I begin slipping back into diarrhea/cramping/bloating/bleeding.
My biggest concern is that although my symptoms are mild, I still have pain and discomfort in my lower left colon, and my doctor is saying my blood work still indicates elevated inflammatory proteins.
New to this World!
I had just gotten back from a month-long hiatus from life traveling in France when I decided to face my symptoms. Traveling, although amazing and exciting, is packed full of stressful experiences from jet lag to sleeping on trains. In addition to travel stress, my partner-in-crime had just moved to another state pursuing his career. Before I left for France, I wrapped up an amazing season working at a ski resort, where I regularly pushed my body to the limit, meanwhile living off bad food (I left for work around 5:00am and often didn’t get home until 7:00 or 8:00 in the evening, I quite literally LIVED on that mountain, and ate what it had to offer a poor snow bum: discounted fast food). I personally believe this combination, a trifecta of physical and mental stress, triggered my inevitable flare up. As brutally honest as this sounds, I was all blood, pain, and tears for a few weeks before and after my diagnosis. My GI doctor was as weste rn medicine as it gets, but was supportive enough (side note: my primary doctor was a halfwit. I had actually reported bleeding YEARS ago, which she chalked up to a cut and sent me on my way with the instruction to eat more fiber, knowing full well my family history. I was eager to believe I didn’t have UC, so I didn’t question her diagnosis). Getting into my primary doctor for a referral, then getting into the GI office, then scheduling a colonoscopy took a month. In that month I lost a lot of blood, a lot of weight, and a good deal of my pride. At first, my GI doctor said it looked like I had isolated inflammation in my lower left colon and rectum, and I would likely only have to go on medication for a few months (hurray!). However, after examining the tissue samples from throughout my colon, she informed me I had a good deal of inflammation in my entire colon, and would have to be on medication for the rest of my life. This moment was by far the hardest, and I d on’t think I will ever forget it. This was the moment I finally realized my life was changing forever.
UC runs in my family, both my dad and his brother are diagnosed, and his 3 other siblings all have some form of IBD/IBS. Many of my cousins (all on my dad’s side) have IBS as well. Having a support system who understood my experiences has been a saving grace, but also a terrifying reality of what I have in store for me. I’ve watched my dad go in and out of hospital visits and doctor’s appointments, and on and off some terrible drugs. I watched different doctors tell him his only option was removing his colon, that NOTHING else would work. I’ve seen him tell those doctors how wrong they were and get better on his own, without medication. What’s worse? Watching my dad experience Lymphoma, a known side effect of imuran, the only drug that ever successfully kept him in remission. Now, he is a cancer survivor and has been in remission from his Colitis for almost two years without medication.
There is hope for me in his story, but also terror. I constantly ask myself if I have the strength to tell any doctor their prescribed treatment is wrong. My dad is a peaceful person, whose grace and wisdom has followed him through each trial.
But I struggle every single day trying to understand how my old self fits into the box UC has created for me. Forever is the hardest word for me to digest. Six months ago, forever was a fleeting concept, not even remotely close to belonging in this 25 year old adventurer’s vocabulary. Now, forever haunts me. It follows we around, constantly reminding me with each rumble in my gut: you will always have this. Spontaneous trips are no longer an option, because I have to plan everything down to the T unless I want to pay for it later. Now, normal is the word that doesn’t fit anywhere in my vocabulary.
My biggest questions for my fellow UC’ers are:
When does the acceptance kick in? It’s been about 3 months since my official diagnosis, and every day is still dictated by colitis thoughts. I’m struggling to find the confident, adventurous, driven person I was before my diagnosis.
Success with diets? I have read a lot about AIP, SCD, GAPS, etc. I understand each person is different, but should I dare to hope I could survive without medication by finding a diet that works for me? I hate the idea that I will be dependent on medication for the rest of my days, especially since my prescriptions cost me hundreds (that’s with insurance).
Supplements:
I actually notice a difference with this supplement, even between brands)
(started taking it for allergies and noticed a HUGE difference in my UC when I didn’t take it) I did some research on this, and found similar claims, the general consensus is if it helps, only take it to help reduce flare up symptoms.

Well first i’d like to say…. im glad you are now accepting that you have this disease. It does not have to run your life though. I have been on many many medications in my lifetime. I was diagnosed at the age of 11 and i am now 35 and working and continuing my life. But one key thing that you have said is… Find what works for you. I have known many many people with this disease and honestly no 2 cases are the same. I am fine with dairy. Im fine with cheese. What i cant eat is the coniferous veggies. I have to cook all my veggies until they are mushy. Also i cant eat corn of any kind. I cant eat wheat, but im okay with pasta , rice and white bread. Its a weird process of elimination. I for one am all for experimental drugs or treatments and i opted for anything that my doctor could do. I have Dr Feaghan in London Ontario, he is the Head of the Colitis and Crohns research for Ontario and his motive is to prevent Surgery…. I was lucky to have changed doctors to him, my previous doctor wanted to do surgery, surgery surgery….. and give me Imuran, or Remicade. Even though i had told him that it makes me sick….. I refused it and went elsewhere and now im on Vedolizumab and my immune system thanks me for it. I havent gotten sick in over a year now and am heading in the right direction of remission. But i do feel 90 percent better so far. But its a 3 year process. I find that becasue im in severe condition with no meds i really have entered the point of no return to not be on meds. But since you are still early enough maybe you can try probiotics and eating habits to control yours from getting worse…. I used to live in fear of the ever sooooo famous… “What am i going to do if there is no toilet near by?” and constantly planning where i can stop for a washroom break any where we went. Its exhausting…. So for your sake i am glad you have a diagnosis and i hope you can control yours with food and diet. If it gets worse, ask about your options and try to avoid surgery. Once you start surgeries, it seems they never stop. Good luck, and i hope you feel better soon. Take care.
Matt October 16, 2014 at 1:22 pm
I was diagnosed in my 20’s about 10yrs ago now. Don’t worry too much about setting yourself goals such as acceptance, just try and keep your life as close to normal as it ever was. I have a cool career and am very sporty. Sometimes, i have a bad few weeks (Netflicks!) but its just a speed bump, i refuse to let UC define me! Anyway, everyones UC seems a bit different and what works for one, will sometimes be bad for others so read lots and work out what works for you. That way, you can keep things as normal as possible.
So, what works for me:
The Good.
Infliximab (remicade)- the only drug that works for me without side effects.
water
exercise
Olive oil
Getting into a ‘morning routine’
The various diets (didn’t make any difference)
Red meat
too much sugar
Altitude (weirdly). Climbing and skiing trips!!??
Good luck and it really isn’t the end of the world, just manage it and don’t let it stop you having fun!
Sam October 16, 2014 at 4:50 pm
Thanks for the advice! When you have a bad few weeks do you add more medication, or just rest? I am still trying to find what is “normal” for me, and when I have reason to be concerned. Every time I feel a little off in my gut I start to panic, fearing I’m falling back into this flare I’ve worked so hard to control. My flare started in the end of June and I am just now beginning to add semi-normal food into my diet and able to eat enough to actually feel full (before I hardly ate, but made sure what I did eat had some vitamins, and experimented with a lot of supplements so I wouldn’t be nutrient deficient).
It’s really nice to hear you still get to get out and do sports. I’m so worried I have to kick some of my hobbies to the curb. But I’m really concerned that altitude might be a problem, as I’m an avid snowboarder and love rock climbing. How much does altitude bother you?
Thanks again for sharing :)

welcome to HELL !! hang in there . first year or two is the hardest .
Anna Hanlon October 17, 2014 at 2:10 am
You sound like a great chick and I found my self sitting here reading this getting all teary as I have been through all this… So you love the Snow huh?!! I live in Falls Creek, Victoria, Australia and it is amaaaaazing!!!!! We had a great season!!! I just wanted you to know that you sound amazing and that this will only drive you more for somebody who already sounds like a very motivated individual! I ended up having a total large bowel and rectum collectomy ( which I NEVER IMAGINED WOULD EVER HAPPEN TO ME ) I was a sassy ( sorry “am” a sassy, now 32 year old ;)
But I was 29 when I had my first real flair up and the moron doctors couldn’t figure out what was wrong with me and if it wasn’t for my amazing partner who never takes no for an answer, he found out about chrones and colitis and gave me a brief and then we found an AMAZING specialist who looked after me in melbourne but after 8 months of fighting it and loosing over half my body weight I had no other option but to have everything removed and I went through all the surgery and had an illieostomy bag before having a “W” pouch made out of my small intestine and yes it has taken 3 years but my quality of life is incredible!!!! Living in Falls Creek had been the best thing for me to get out hiking and being surrounded by exquisite nature and wilderness so I feel amazing and I seem to be the only one in falls creek who never gets sick!!! I read stories like yours and I sometimes I feel like maybe what happened to me was the best thing in that situation as it all happened so fast and yes they put me heavily on all the horrible medications but now I’m on NOTHING!! I have a deeeevine 7 year old daughter named Pearl who goes to school in Falls Creek and there are only 6 people at her school so the support for her had been incredible!!! I read all sorts of stories from people living with it and managing it with diet, exercise ( and strangly enough… Nicotine !!! I’m serious read about the connections!!! It’s all connected to inflammatory response disorders ) and then I read things that people Ellect to have their bowels removed and look in the end of where I was at ( 8 months away from my darling daughter and my beautiful home ) I was OVER it!!! I just wanted to bloody eat!!!!! It’s my FAVOURITE thing to do!!!!! ;)
So now I eat everything and anything I want!!!! It’s brilliant!!! I know your scaired but all you can do is keep doing the things that make you smile and happy and yes you will have to consider things a whole lot more now which use to bug me because I was such a fly by the seat of my pants no hassle kind of girl!!! But it HAS to become YOUR normal or it will do your head in!!! Find out your middle ground and except it!! Don’t compare your self EVER with somone who DOESNT have colitis because that simply isn’t you! You are STILL amazing and sexy and unbelievably strong for putting it out there and you are NEVER alone!!! Let me know if you ever want to do a ski season in Australia!!!! Stay strong girl!!! Xxx Anna
Sam October 21, 2014 at 6:13 pm
Thank you for your encouragement. It truly helps my sanity to hear personal stories and to be fully understood. My favorite thing to do is eat too! I’m so glad you are past all the crazy stages and have come out on the other side with such a positive attitude (staying positive is a struggle with so many unknowns!). I looked into cigarettes and am shocked! I have been so adamant my entire life about smoking, even through college when most people I knew smoked daily! I almost wish I could unknow that information, because I’m half tempted to try it!! I’d like to think in the long run if I treat my body well it’ll pay off in the future… although so far that mentality hasn’t worked out so well! But who knows how much worse my symptoms would be if I hadn’t taken pretty good care of myself (I was raised on organic whole foods, bless my mother’s heart, and have always been a physically active person).
The temperature over here is finally dropping!! I am hoping for a great season and that my UC won’t interfere too much on the slopes. If you are ever in the Northwest US and need a snow buddy, let me know!! Thanks again for sharing:)
Rebeka October 17, 2014 at 5:16 pm
It’s hard to say, when you will start to feel normal again, or when “acceptance” happens. I don’t even remember when that was the case for me. It was probably more of a transition, and it would be hard to pin point a certain moment. Because you sound so motivated, hopeful, and active, I want to just say that you can be all that, even with UC, once you find your normal.
In my case, I was in a terrible flare that finally got me a diagnosis, and it took about six months to get over the flare. Afterward, I was in remission for over two-and-a-half years, during which I grew healthier and stronger than I was ever before! I did go about eight months without medication and without noticeable symptoms, but a routine colonoscopy revealed polyps and inflammation and that scared me back into taking meds. Now, I am pregnant and had doctors mess with my meds, which put me in another flare, but I think without the pregnancy I probably would have stayed in remission.
Anyway, I still feel that I am healthier and stronger, or I know that I can be. I was not really athletic before the diagnosis, just enjoyed bike rides and hiking. Since the diagnosis, I started doing yoga, then really got into Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, which is very physical and demanding, and I even competed. I felt so good, I started to consider myself an athlete. I think UC can give us that kind of drive, to make the best out of good days and live more passionately or intensely.
Tita October 19, 2014 at 3:45 am
I don’t think you ever get to fully accept this disease, especially if it affects your daily life – be it going to the toilet often, or being in pain or not being able to eat whatever you want. You just learn to live with it. Some days are better, some worse.
Like you, I also feel pain on the left side, often before going to the toilet and some time after it. Stress and food that my body sees as the enemy are the most common reasons for the pain. I am on Pentasa and I think I will be on it for the rest of my life unless I win the jackpot. :) But I have a coworker who has had two flares but is not on any medication at the moment and she can eat a lot more than me so there is hope. ;)
Good luck to you and may you have a lot of good days!

Acceptance is probably the hardest thing in my opinion. In 23, was diagnosed in August of 2012 after months of knowing something was wrong but trying to work it out on my own with diet and whatnot. I was unwise and working 70+ hours a week up until about 2 weeks before I was hospitalized while waiting for my specialist appointment that was still 2 months off. There were medical mishaps, one of which was me never getting my initial blood work results from my primary doctor, still don’t know who dropped the ball, just thinking about it makes me mad.
Anyway acceptance, for me since this all started every winter I seem to get really bad, it started in the winter as well, while I was working at a meat packing plant. At least for me cold has extreme negative affects on my condition. This summer was the first time I was able to get back to work since this started, I worked in some food stands at events and roadside, which was great because It was about 100 degrees inside. I ended up having a side affect from medication affecting my mental stability, now I’m off of that. But did not figure it out until after I fell off the deep end said really crazy sounding things to friends and family, that’s awkward.
I thought I was more or less “better” because I was feeling great all summer, I was planning on heading south for the winter like some kind of bird and working on my music, I write. Now I legally have to stay in the state and I’m unemployed again due to being literally incapable of working. I spent the better part of the last month sleeping 14+ hours a day. Good note, I should be starting Humara here pretty soon, if it works I will be so happy.

I can really relate to your story, I too was active (snowboard, volleyball, hiking, snowshoeing, etc) and was the most spontaneous person you met, always traveling (for work but also more for play) so I hadn’t had a solid routine in about 5 years, eating and drinking poorly as well but assumed I was healthy because I worked out a lot and was very active. I am 28, diagnosed almost a year ago, and I can’t tell you how many tears I’ve cried and have tried and tried to accept it and figure things out, but no one really understands how hard it is and how much our lives are not the same now. I am happy you have family members to chat about this with, I feel like I have no one (except this website and people like you) that can relate, and my poor boyfriend who is amazing and has been my rock through this. They don’t understand why I have to say “I Can’t do that or I can’t go there” so often now because they know I am not “me” anymore. Acceptance is hard, I have not reached that point yet and hope I can soon. It is an AMAZING feeling when I actually feel good (which is not often at all, maybe one day per month), and for that one moment I am truly happy, not worrying about being sick, I immediately get depressed because I remember how I used to feel this good all the time, and I feel now that I almost took it for granted.
I too find myself in front of Netflix (I just started watching Gilmore Girls from the beginning) Guilty pleasure I guess, haha, but I hate that I now spend my free time on the couch instead of playing outside and traveling and seeing my friends but relaxing is key for me right now until I can cope with this disease and learn to live with it or find something that really helps me.

I’m banking on that “somethings gotta give” idea!! The idea that you aren’t the same anymore is so hard for people who know you to grasp. On the outside, I don’t seem different to the people I have known for years, but that day to day battle is still lingering just below the surface. Not being able to go out and do my normal social thing is difficult. Being from the pacific northwest, everyone out here LOVES wine and beer, and being in my twenties pretty much solidifies that every social gathering revolves around or involves alcohol. Its a pretty awkward conversation trying to explain why you aren’t drinking. I have also become THAT friend that is difficult to plan around! I’d like to think I was a pretty easygoing individual before I started obsessing about what I could or couldn’t eat. When I’m with friends planning dinner, people look to me because they know we can’t just go anywhere. Then when we order I sound like a crazed health freak (gluten free, dairy free everything), and I apologize every time I order as the waiter pretends I’m not a pain in their butt.
I hope you the very best on the road to an easier lifestyle. I completely relate to that frustrating feeling sitting at home on the coach because you know your body needs it, while your brain is grasping for some excitement! I still hike pretty regularly, but I always make sure not to push it. I took a big step back in my recovery when I went on a 17 mile bike ride last month (combined with eating some dairy), so I know I’m not quiet ready for that much activity.
Thank you so much for sharing your experiences with me!

Quick question, you say you tend to flare during your “time of the month” is that the exact week? Are you on birth control? I notice that I tend to have symptoms the week before I start, then when I do start, it gets a lot better (weird!). I went off birth control about 5 months ago after doing some research and I want to say it is helping a little, but with all the meds I have been on and off and adding my own supplements, can’t really pinpoint anything yet. Before I was diagnosed the only thing that made me feel good was alcohol, and now they say stay away from it! I can related to being “that friend” haha :)

Singapore-based Scent Journer has global aspirations in the perfume market
Anil Prabha
September 1, 20224 mins read
Founded in July of 2021, Scent Journer is a Singapore based perfume house that focuses on mindfully formulated fragrances to empower women with scents. It currently has an e-commerce presence and has four locations in the Singapore market. The brand’s founder has plans to expand its footprint in the near future. “At Scent Journer, we mindfully formulate our perfume with more than 85% naturally derived active ingredients and sugarcane alcohol, and it is designed to boost your mood and make pe

ake perfume relevant in your daily life,” Joyce Lian, its founder told Inside Retail. She went on to say that many of us are unaware that scent plays a big part in our lives, as 75 per cent of our emotions are generated everyday due to scent and this is vital in our fast-paced society. “When we face high levels of stress, scents can be the fastest & easiest way to relieve your stress but current perfumes are giving women headaches because of the type of alcohol and ingredients used,” she noted. Mindfully formulated Her brand’s marketing hashtag #Yourmoodmatters is particularly relevant as her products are designed to capture the healing essence of nature, making perfumes a shortcut to alter users’ emotional and physiological states. “A perfect mood-boosting perfume is the sum of its ingredients. Hence, we only work with manufacturers who are able to source high-quality ingredients required for our fragrances. We only use the best ingredients that are essential to a formula’s performance,” she added. Lian studied Chemistry back in her university days, and her fragrances are backed by a lot of research and consumer studies. She interviewed over 300 respondents through 1-hour video calls to gauge common pain points in the fragrance industry and it formed the basis for her brand. “We are proud of the fragrances we have created and it’s important to us that you love them too. All our fragrances are developed from research into the connection between cognitive function and the olfactory system to supplement your emotional needs,” she stated. Overall wellbeing As far as Lian is concerned, fragrances should improve one’s wellbeing, and not harm it. “We hold the safety of our ingredients to IFRA standards through the 50th Amendment and ASEAN Cosmetic Directive. Our formulas do not, and never will, contain ingredients such as methanol, parabens, formaldehyde or animal derived musk,” she stressed. Lian went on to explain that the company sources its ingredients from ethical producers around the globe, with sustainable and energy harvesting processes. “We are also proud to be a true Singaporean brand. Our production and formulation are done locally in Singapore, which reduces air miles, fuel consumption, and emissions,” she said. She also believes in empowering her users, as her selection of perfumes are not constrained by the common practice of gender labelling of feminine and masculine fragrances. “No one should not be judged by the fragrance worn, so we remove all gender labelling on fragrance and empower you to make your own choice of scent,” she elaborated. It’s an art form Lian’s passion in perfumery began back in her university days, and for her it was like a blank canvas for her to combine chemistry and her storytelling flair. “Instead of watercolours that artists usually use, we are dealing with different chemical compounds, and different oils that are being mixed together to create different scents, and all of it is harmonised together to become an art form,” she added. She went on to explain that consumers are looking for sustainability, more gender neutral fragrances, and scents that are more functional in their purposes. This is why the company focuses on functional fragrances that are suited to the humid climate in Singapore, yet unique enough to be different from the rest in this saturated market. New beginnings Scent Journer was among five startups that underwent the National University of Singapore (NUS Venture Building) programme in Singapore, it soon secured the start-up founder grant to build up the program, and is now a portfolio company for NUS. “I was in the banking sector for a short time, and I quickly realised that it was not my thing, and this was at the height of the pandemic, and the government was putting out a lot of initiatives for entrepreneurs. I decided to take the plunge,” she added. She quit her corporate job in banking and dived right into the programme. Her goal for Scent Journer is to make the company a global perfume house. “It was never about having a side hustle, I’m someone that goes all in. I want to make this brand a well-known entity beyond Singapore’s borders. We definitely want to get into markets like Korea, Japan, Hong Kong and Australia, United States and even in the UK” she stated. Brick and mortar is key So far, the brand has four physical locations in Singapore, and is currently in discussions with another major retailer in Singapore, and Lian hopes to have an official announcement next month. Lian believes that the brick and mortar approach for her brand is extremely important as customers need to smell the fragrances, touch and feel the product and soak up the ambience as well. “There are interesting trends in Singapore, we have distributors bringing in niche perfume brands that can cost up to $700 SGD a bottle, and it gets snapped up quickly. There’s a market for these products here,” she noted. Her e-commerce strategy is also important, but the costs of advertising on social media platforms can be quite expensive in the long run. That’s why she feels the physical locations still have a very important role to play in the overall scheme of things. “Live streaming could be an option for the brand in the future, but right now we are mainly focused on building the brand image and awareness as we are still very young,” she said. Interestingly, Lian revealed that the company is bringing out a new product in October, and it will be a totally new ingredient from the lab in a first-to-market launch. “We are very excited about the launch. We can’t reveal much yet, but at Scent Journer, you can be assured that you can expect things that are different from the rest,” she concluded.

After struggling to become a morning person for years, one runner has finally found the key to success.

Let me start by saying that I am NOT a morning person. I dread waking up every day, keep a bottle of eye drops on my nightstand, and no matter what time I go to bed, I never feel rested enough to jump up and greet the day. So the thought of going for a run before my coffee’s kicked in is the stuff of my nightmares—literally. But as the mom of a toddler, my energy only goes downhill as the day goes on, and the brutal summer weather doesn’t leave much time to run before the pavement turns hot enough to melt my shoes. So out of sheer desperation, I decided to attempt to become a morning runner.
I tried all the tips I could find to be my perkiest self, from laying my clothes out the night before to waking up to an upbeat song, and while those were all well and good, there was only one thing that actually made a bright-eyed and bushy-tailed difference: lemon water.
To be specific, what worked for me was a mug of water, microwaved for exactly 70 seconds till warm, with half a lemon squeezed in, sipped first thing after waking up. I’ve been reading about the countless benefits of warm lemon water for years and have made it a habit on and off, although to be honest it was more to be a part of the trend whenever some celebrity would swear by it than for any specific effect. But after coming across the tip in just about every “morning person” article I read, I had to commit. And I’m so glad I did—after a couple weeks of adding this ritual to my morning, I was able to get out the door and get a few miles under my belt before the sun had a chance to get me. Some mornings—and this is huge for me—I was even able to do it without any coffee.
If you’re dreaming of becoming a morning runner too, try the lemon water trick. It has a few key benefits for runners, and I promise it’s more than just the latest trendy celeb tip. It really does work for us regular people too—here’s why:
You know how when you use lemon-scented cleaners around the house, you just feel a little brighter (no? just me?)? It turns out the scent of lemon is known for its calming and stress-reducing properties, which can help you feel focused and concentrate on the workout in front of you. Lemons are also packed with potassium, which revs nerve and brain function, as well energy-producing electrolytes. Translation: tons of pep in your step.
It gets things going
Even if you manage to make it out of bed, it’s still next to impossible to get going if you feel bloated or weighted down from last night’s heavy meal. Not only does the acid in lemon help break down food in your stomach, drinking water, and particularly warm water, gets your digestive system up and running, so you can do the same.
It’s incredibly hydrating
After a (hopefully) long night of sleep, your body is in serious need of H2O. Making water the first thing you put into your system will jump start the hydration process, and those energizing electrolytes in lemon also help replenish your body’s fluids. Any runner who’s ever tried working out dehydrated knows how fruitless it is, so setting yourself up with plenty of water first thing is half the battle of getting yourself out the door and into an awesome a.m. workout.

Male 2: He pushes people away before they have a chance to leave him. It’s a defense mechanism, all right? And for 20 years he’s been alone because of that. If you push him right now, it’s going to be the same thing all over again and I’m not going to let that happen to him.
Male 2: What?
Male 1: Don’t you do that. Don’t infect him with the idea that it’s okay to quit, that it’s okay to be a failure, because it’s not okay Sean.
Dr. Kenner: How can failure contribute to your own happiness? That sounds like a contradiction on the face of it. With me today to discuss this is Dr. Eric Daniels. He has his PhD in American History from the University of Wisconsin. He’s taught at the University of Wisconsin and he is currently a professor at Duke University in the program on Values and Ethics in the Marketplace. Dr. Eric Daniels is currently working on a book discussing how moral ideas – moral ideas – have shaped the course of American political life. His tapes and books are available on my website. He’s written A History of American Moral Thought and The Inventive Age in American History. Welcome to the show Dr. Daniels.
Dr. Daniels: Thank you. It’s good to be here.
Dr. Kenner: It’s a pleasure to have you on. When we think about failure, many of us give up at the first signs of failure. We’ll try to get a job and we get turned down and we conclude, oh well, what’s the use? Nothing ever works out right. Or I can’t do anything right. And we give up. Or we try a new project or a new hobby and we’re a failure at the beginning. Tell us about some of Thomas Edison’s failures and how he turned them into a benefit for himself? How they contributed to his happiness?
Dr. Daniels: Well, it’s the same thing. Thomas Edison, over the years, made so many miraculous inventions that we tend to associate him with success. But actually, if we could analyze the number of experiments – and I’m sure any historian that want so to go back and look through Edison’s various experiments – will notice that Edison did a lot of things that just didn’t work. Over the course of his life, he made many, many trials, and he came up with things that just didn’t work. There’s even a famous story, when Edison had become more established and he had his own laboratory where he employed engineers and mathematicians and others to work for him, and Edison had gone through a number of trials on a particular experiment. The guy that was working with him said, “We don’t know anything!” And Edison looked at him and he said, “What do you mean? We know 837 things that don’t work.”
Dr. Kenner: This was with what?
Dr. Daniels: I think this was when he was developing the power system for the light bulb.
Dr. Daniels: The filament for the light bulb is another great example. Edison, he had developed the principles of how electric light would work. He had made the significant scientific advances that allowed him to see what the basis for electric light bulbs would be, but he couldn’t yet find the right fabric or the right type of material to use as the filament that are in our light bulbs today. So Edison decided, this is the last step. He tried something. He tried the two or three obvious things that any scientist would have tried and they failed. And a lot of people might have given up at this point. A lot of people might have said, well, maybe we weren’t made to make light. After all, Edison was really striking out in a new direction, scientifically, with his theory about electric light. He might have given up. But instead he said, no, I’m confident that what I’m doing is the right thing, I just need to find the right materials. And so he had his engineers and others gather all kinds of materials. Anything they could think of. And he would roll these into filaments and they would try them. Again and again and again and again. Literally almost I think something like 500 or 600 different materials were used.
Dr. Kenner: I’ve been to two of his labs and I just think he’s incredible. He had animal parts from all over the world.
Dr. Daniels: And he’s got plants from all over the world and you can still visit there today, it’s a facility in Orange, N.J.
Dr. Kenner: I think in Tampa too.
Dr. Daniels: It’s just a vast warehouse of materials. Even beyond the light bulb, with his other inventions, he always knew that some stuff, some part of reality, some thing out there, might be what I need. So I need to collect stuff so that when I’m doing experiments. I won’t let failures get me down. I’ll always have more resources. I’ll always have more tries. I’ll always have more opportunities to make a success out of this.
Dr. Kenner: Instead of saying, “Let’s go back to the candle.”
Dr. Daniels: Primarily I think it’s because he believed in his own thinking methods. He had confidence in his mind. He didn’t give up. He didn’t have that attitude. I’m not even sure Edison really considered that anything he ever did was a failure, even though we might call it that. We might say, “He failed at this. He failed at that.” It may not actually be in his mind a failure. It was always just more data for his mind to process. It was another thing that didn’t work. So he filed that in his mind – this doesn’t work for this application. That’s knowledge.
Dr. Kenner: What do you do when other people say, “Come on Edison. Give up. Tom, haven’t you tried enough stuff? You’re wasting your time. This is ridiculous. You’re stupid.” How did he deal with other people haggling him?
Dr. Daniels: One of the things that Edison, from very early on when he was working on inventions on the telegraph, he simply refused to accept any kind of accepted dogma about the way things worked. He said, “Look, my knowledge comes from my interaction with the world. And I have confidence in that. I have a belief that what I can do will have efficacy, that it’ll have good effects.” And he had some examples in his life. There were things in his life that he had done and thought through that worked, and he said, “Look, I can achieve these things. I can do something good. I have the confidence that I’ll be able to do that again in the future, no matter what anyone says.” Because throughout his life, people tried to tell him that he was wrong on scientific grounds, on moral grounds, on all kinds of different issues. But he never listened to them. He always believed in himself and he believed that he always had the capacity in the future to repeat these successes that he’d had in the past. He didn’t focus on the failures or other people’s perceptions.
Dr. Kenner: I think that’s what Ayn Rand calls being a first-hander. Not a second-hander, always worried about what other people think about you, but using your own mind well and relying on your own judgment.
Dr. Kenner: In terms of dealing with failure, what are one or two things that we can learn from Edison’s approach to improve our own lives?
Dr. Daniels: I think one of the things that I mentioned was how we mentally, what do we think of are attempts that don’t success? How do we think of them? That’s an important difference between successful inventors and unsuccessful people who are mired in failure. He didn’t think of them as failures. He didn’t simply wipe them off the slate. He didn’t say, “This is useless.” He didn’t say to himself, “What I just did is useless.” He said to himself, “What I just did was another step along the road to success.” And he conceptualized his failures as steps on the road to success. For us, for applying these ideas to our lives, even if what we do doesn’t succeed, if we try something – try to get a job, try to do something else – the attitude that we need to have is there’s always something we can learn from our failures.
Dr. Kenner: So even if you had a bad marriage and it broke up or a bad relationship with someone, you can learn from it, rather than self-destruct?
Dr. Daniels: Sure. Rather than saying, “I’m no good. I don’t know how to make the right decisions in my life. I didn’t pick the right wife or husband,” you say to yourself, “This allows me to gain more knowledge about myself and about what I need in my relationships or what I need in a job,” or whatever the area of your life it is.
Dr. Kenner: Or what I did wrong that I can improve.
Dr. Daniels: And it’s not a focus on the negative consequences, it’s the focus on positive aspects. Really, these are positive things. As painful as they might be in the short term, they give us more knowledge.
Dr. Kenner: I want to thank you so much for joining us today and talking about how failure is not an obstacle to happiness but can actually contribute to your long-range happiness. Thank you so much for joining us today. Hope you’re able to use this to achieve success in your life. See you again next week on The Rational Basis of Happiness.

Most personal training clients think a core workout consists of crunches and sit ups—but there’s so much more. Today, I’m sharing with you 5 core moves that you’re probably not doing. These challenging moves will help you build a strong core and foundation. And if you haven’t read this core-free workout article, head here to check out why expanding your core moves can get you the results you want.
It may look like a normal plank but it certainly is not. Get yourself into a strong plank position meaning straight as a board with no sagging hips. Then squeeze everything you can for 10 seconds, then rest for 5 seconds and repeat 2 to 3 times.
Here is where you may feel like a child again. Starting on your back you want to place your right hand with an open palm on your left bent knee cap and squish a bug. Now roll on to your left side and then back to supine without letting the bug fall. You don’t want to be flopping around on the ground, instead try to be as controlled as you can during each rep.
Plank with Row
Using a bench as elevation, you will have one arm planking on it while the other is free to move. While maintaining natural spine and “quiet hips” you will use the free hand to row either a dumbbell or kettlebell as you plank. Nothing too fancy about this exercise other than it not easy!
A traditional side plank with a small twist to it. Starting in a side plank with the top leg stacked in front of the bottom leg. I like to stack the legs this way to drive more internal hip rotation with the top leg, just an added bonus. While maintaining a serious arrow like structure the top arm of the plank will punch out and in. You can add a small weight between 5 and 10 pounds dumbbells for more of a challenge.
Want to challenge your adductors and overall resiliency of your legs? This side plank will do just that. Start on the ground in a traditional side plank position then put your top leg on the bench and raise your body up using your hand and core to get into a strong arrow like position. Your opposite legs isn’t just hanging around it should be actively try to stay directly underneath the bench or your top leg.
Ready to give these a try or need a little extra motivation or guidance? Our team of certified strength and conditioning specialists are here to help you push through your road blocks and get the results you want. Schedule a free fitness assessment today at any of our 8 valleywide FAST locations.
Want a stronger core? Are you crunched out? Don’t know what exercises to do next? I have the answer. Core exercise programs are not the same as “doing abs”. This article is here to help you get off the floor and perform a crunch free core exercise program that can be achieved by performing a plank series, as well as adding rotational and anti-rotational exercises to strengthen the core.
First, let’s talk about the core and what makes up our core. The core in my opinion is anything that is attached to pelvis, assisting in maintaining a neutral spine and neutral pelvis. This includes the pelvic floor, transversus abdominis, multifidus, internal and external oblique’s, rectus abdominis, the longissimus, glutes and the diaphragm. The body works like a system or a chain, working together, not individually. While each individual muscle of the core has its own unique responsibility, they work together with other groups to makeup the core. While crunches have stood the test of time, they are only focused on one other many muscle groups of the core. So how do I work all these muscles at the same time as a system?
Second, everyone knows what a plank is. Planks are a great core strengthening exercise when done correctly but ask yourself this, are you doing them correctly? How long should you hold a plank? How do you keep it fresh so you don’t sleep through your planks? A plank is a simple form of a pillar exercise that is to hold the spine in neutral while keeping your core tight for a period of time. Keeping the spine neutral can be difficult for many. Simple mistakes include drooping heads and more commonly the sag if the lower back when fatigue sets in. Remember that quality movements are always better than quantity. Following these simple rules when beginning a plank regiment.
Start from knees and elbows. If you are able to hold for a minute, progress to elbows and toes. Work your way to a minute and a half hold then add movement. This can be as simple as arm movements, leg movements, both extremity movements and then you can add slides and walks and such. Don’t forget that side planks are a great way to add variety as well. Remember, you must maintain a neutral spine in order to progress, otherwise the exercise is worthless.
And don’t forget to get up off the floor! Performing rotation and anti-rotation exercises are very important. Working all three planes of motion available is vital. The spine is a series of joints working together to not only act as a supportive structure but also allows movement in the three planes of motion. Rotational exercises include cable chops (up and down), lawn mowers, battle rope rainbows, rotational swings with sand bag or dumbbell, lunges with rotation, landmine rotations and Turkish get ups.
Anti-rotational exercises are less traditional but equally important when improving core strength and conditioning. These exercise are fondly referred to by myself as pillar exercises, designed to build stability and strength to prevent injury with everyday types of activities. Preventing rotation means that you are able to resist forces acting on the body that will try to rotate or move it in ways that may not be safe. Examples of pillar or anti-rotational exercises are Single leg dead lifts (both stiff leg and traditional deadlifts), Single arm inverted rows off a suspension trainer, anti-rotational push pulls with a cable or band, anti-rotational plank pulls, Palloff press with cable or bands, and weighted carries for a distance over time.
Crunches have been the go to for many when trying to improve core strength but these only work one plane of motion. I advise you to get off the floor and add these types of activities to your core exercise program, and work all three planes of motion to help prevent possible injury. A strong core will assist you when carrying heavy items, lifting items, pushing or pulling heavy items or simply performing your favorite fitness activities.

He began by telling us about the earliest references to Welsh history contained in the “Mabinogion”, which he described as a kind of Canterbury Tales based on old Welsh folk stories. He described two books:
“The Red Book of Hergest” a copy of which was in the Library of Jesus College but is now in the Bodleian. This tells the story of Lludd and Llefelys, two brothers. Lludd, the elder brother, inherited the kingship of Britain and founded the city of Caer Lludd (London). Llefelys married a princess from France, and became King there.
“The White Book of Rhydderch” included the earliest text of the Mabinogion which included the subsequent story of Lludd. His country was subject to three scourges: 1. An invasion by the Coraniaid, who were able to hear everything people said or did; 2. Every May Day, there was a terrible scream, leading women to miscarry; and 3. There was Famine and lack of grain.
Lludd went to France to ask his brother’s advice. His brother told him, for plague no. 1 – to gather a poisonous mixture made from an insect which was harmless to Britons, then to invite the Coraniad to a feast and spray them with this mixture; For plague no. 2 the screaming was believed to be caused by two dragons (red & white) fighting. So he was advised to set a trap in Oxford (the geographical centre of the country), to put the dragons to sleep with a barrel of mead, and take the sleeping dragons to Snowdonia and bury them; For plague no. 3, which was caused by a mighty magician (Merlin?) putting everyone to sleep by magic and stealing the food, Lludd must confront him and keep awake with a vat of cold water. These terrible plagues seem to have ended, so the advice must have been good.
Another source of early history was the “History of the Kings of Britain” written in 1139 by Geoffrey of Monmouth. This described the conflict between the Celts and the Saxons, and the retreat of the Celts into Wales and the West under Vortigern. The Battle of Dyrham was fought between the Celts and the West Saxons. The battle was won by the Saxons and this defeat led to the separation between the Welsh and the Cornish Celts.
Jesus College, Oxford was founded in 1571 during the reign of Queen Elizabeth 1, although the Founder was a Welshman, Hugh Price who was Treasurer of St David’s Cathedral in Pembrokeshire. It is the only Elizabethan college in Oxford. For many years Welsh men and boys constituted the majority of students, and they came from both rich and poor homes. They tended to stand out due partly to their preference for beer rather than wine, and their relative poverty, strength and physicality. This led to their becoming the butt of various student jokes and nicknames, for instance the popular cheap meal of cheese on toast became known as Welsh Rarebit. A well-known story, probably apocryphal, concerned two famous 18th century figures – Richard “Beau” Nash (a Welshman from Swansea and a student in Jesus) and John Wesley (future founder of Methodism). They are said to have met on a narrow pavement, and one refused to give way, saying to the other “I never make way for a fool”, to which the other replied “I always do”, and stood aside (we suspect we know which of the two said what).
The famous and centuries-old Town and Gown riots, that often started around Carfax at the top of the High Street, figured largely in the history of Jesus College. The Welsh students, known for their physicality, were often pitted against the Bargemen from the canal nearby. The Jesus oarsmen have also performed very well in the annual ‘Bumps’ rowing contests among colleges.
Jesus College also figured in the life and thoughts of T E Lawrence, who was born in Caernarvonshire and studied at Jesus and who gained a first class degree in History. In his first year in Oxford he was the first to navigate an underground stream that had been covered over in Medieval times and ran through the middle of Oxford.
Other famous names with Welsh connections in Oxford include J R R Tolkien, who was extremely interested in the Welsh language, and Dylan Thomas who met and took advantage of the historian A J P Taylor. Taylor wrote “I disliked Dylan Thomas more than anyone I have known, and have no desire to preserve his memory.

At our February meeting Alistair Lack made a return visit to the Society to talk about Country Houses in Oxfordshire. He reminded us that in much of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries significant numbers of large country houses in Britain were demolished, including thirteen in Oxfordshire in the last hundred years. An exhibition illustrating this loss was staged at the V and A museum in 1975.
Alistair began and ended his presentation with Tusmore House situated a few miles north of Bicester. The original Palladian style house was completed in 1766 for William Fermore and passed through several families before it was eventually demolished in 1964. Tusmore has now been resurrected in a modern interpretation by Sir William Whitfield and built for the businessman Wafic Said in 2000 for £30 million.
In North Oxfordshire stands Rousham the delightful 15 acre estate of the Cottrell Dormer family. The original house was built for the Dormer family in the seventeenth century but the house and grounds we see today is the property modified and extended in the eighteenth century under the influence of the distinguished house and garden architect William Kent. The gardens at Rousham are a particular attraction, representing the first phase of English landscape design. Fine sculptures are displayed in the grounds to enhance a circular walk with ever changing vistas.
We are all somewhat familiar with Blenheim Palace, a veritable National Monument, often used to host visiting dignitaries, most recently the American President Donald Trump. The palace has its origins in a national award from Queen Anne to John Churchill who led the British armies to victory over the forces of Louis XIV in European battles notably at the village of Blenheim in Bavaria. Unfortunately the sums of money available were not well specified and this led to great conflict between Churchill’s wife Sarah and his friend John Vanbrugh, the chosen architect of the very large English Baroque building. Eventually Vanbrugh was released and banned from the property, to be replaced by Nicholas Hawksmore.
The impressive grounds at Blenheim were designed by Capability Brown who in his career was responsible for forty grand estates, including eight in Oxfordshire. Not everyone approved and the Cambridge critic Robert Owen said he hoped to die and go to heaven before Brown improved it! Brown’s masterstroke at Blenheim was to create the magnificent lake by damming the river Glyme with the “ most expensive bridge in Britain “ crossing it.
More evidence of lavish expenditure is the £3000 Column of Victory in the grounds and the extensive use of Bath stone, for example in the Orangery. Apparently such stone often went missing from the yard to reappear later in Woodstock townhouses. William Kent also makes an appearance at Blenheim in his design for the Chapel.
Alistair next transported us to North West Oxfordshire and the Jacobean gem of Chastleton House, a National Trust property since 1991. The property was little changed in it’s lifetime and many features remain unaltered in four hundred years to give us a time capsule of Jacobean life. Several fine seventeenth century fireplaces adorn the house, having been commissioned to proclaim the wealth and standing of the then owners. Another gem at Chastleton is Bishop Juxson’s bible, used by him at the execution of Charles1. The grounds were famous for the Croquet Lawn and indeed the rules of the game were written down and formalised at Chastleton in 1866 by Walter Whitmore Jones.
The least visited National Trust House is Ashdown House near Lambourne. This modest but delightful seventeenth century country house or hunting lodge was built by the Earl of Craven for Elizabeth of Bohemia, the “ Winter Queen “ (see History Society talk May 2016). She was the aunt of Charles 11 who was a friend of Craven. Unfortunately she died before she was able to visit the Dutch designed house. It seems to be well worth a visit to swell the N.T. numbers.

On Jan 10th Tim Healey gave us a fascinating and entertaining account of the customs associated with May Day celebrations.
First of all he reminded us that the First of May is not only a celebration of Spring, but also a political date, even with revolutionary undertones.
But May Day celebrations have their origins in the pagan rites associated with Flora the goddess of flowers, which began in Roman times and may have been connected to orgies. A painting by Tiepolo of 1745 depicted these rites.
In 1695 Anthony Wood described the celebrations as an invocation of Summer and at this time it was not considered of great significance. However in the period of the Commonwealth many Puritans found the practice abhorrent, and they did their best to suppress any celebration connected with May Day.
Singing from towers became a common custom in Medieval times and was known to take place in Oxford on New College Bell Tower. The urge to bring green things into the towns and indoors was also a feature of these rites and is depicted in a Book of Hours of 1500. In the Thames Valley the Hawthorn and its blossom were very popular for garlands. It often (but not always) flowered at the appropriate time.
The Celtic Beltane feasts and Valpurgisnacht were also associated with May Day rites.
In 1250 the University banned all Maytime revels and this reflected the tension which developed between Authority and the revellers. But the Church attitude was often ambiguous, partly since the profits from the sale of Church Ale were used to fund church maintenance. The University colleges, too, sometimes hosted the Morris Dancing. In 1605 there was Morris Dancing in front of the King at Christchurch college.
In the 16th century we see the first mentions of Morris Dancing in relation to May Day celebrations, including depictions of men dressed as women (which had been forbidden in the Bible).
The Puritan backlash against Morris Dancing and other forms of popular entertainment originated with the English Church’s break with Rome in the 16th Century. The Bible was the supreme arbiter, and anything that was condemned there was abhorrent to the Puritans. Banbury was a hotbed of Puritanism, and the authorities there forbade all May celebrations. The Royalists considered these things to be harmless. In 1633 St Peter’s Church tried to stop a Garland from coming into the Church. The Maypole was often erected as a provocation to the Puritans.
At the Westminster Assembly in 1644 Maypoles were banned, but at the Restoration, and the return of Charles II, they reappeared.
By the 1740s the revelries around the Maypole had become more “polite” and in tune with the new Romantic sensibility. The dancers began to include women and girls, and small boys blowing horns (the whithorns) as they might have done in the fields while herding cattle and sheep. On Magdalen College Tower the Choir sang the Hymnus Eucharistus.
In the 19th Century, with the Industrial Revolution in full swing, the popular image of the Countryside became more and more idealised, and writers and artists (including Tennyson, Holman Hunt and Ruskin) helped to create the image of May Day revels that we recognise today. The Maypole became an object with ribbons round which people danced, a Garland was brought in, the May Queen appeared (only occasionally with a May King), and songs were written and sung. But still there were more subversive elements, such as Jack in the Green, a man covered from head to foot with greenery, and often accompanied by chimney sweeps.
In the 20th and 21st Centuries the trend towards popular involvement increased, with events such as the Magdalen Bridge celebrations as the Choir sings from Magdalen Tower, followed by further revels up the High Street. This particular event attracts people in huge, sometimes frightening numbers. But on the other hand, May Day is still celebrated in small communities with dances round the May Pole, a Queen of the May, and garlands from the countryside.

Safeguarding is a vital part of protecting people from harm, but it can be a tough subject to tackle because it's difficult to talk about. This course is for leaders who are interested in establishing an effective culture of safeguarding in their workplace. Understanding your safeguarding responsibilities will help you take practical steps towards providing valuable support to the people you work with.
What you will learn
This course will explain why creating a safeguarding culture is necessary, and vital, in your workplace. You’ll also learn about the safeguarding responsibilities you need to observe, and discover the measures you can take to ensure a safeguarding culture is established across your workplace.
About this course
Everyone has the right to feel safe from abuse, but sometimes bad things do happen. Ignoring a difficult topic doesn’t make it go away. Quite the opposite. It’s really important to start conversations about abuse so that people are aware of the risks and warning signs, and better equipped to protect vulnerable people from harm.
Creating a safeguarding culture is all about making sure that people feel safe and confident enough to speak about abuse and take action when they need to. Whatever job you do, safeguarding needs to be integrated into the core values of your workplace. Especially if you work with people at high risk of being abused.
This course is an interactive experience designed to help create lasting learning. By using interactive knowledge checkers and a multiformat quiz bank, we aimed to deliver a course where learners could test their new knowledge by applying it in different ways.
Given the subject matter, we also tried to approach things in a sensitive way. So, we used plain line-drawn animations, rather than our usual full colour characters and sets. We also included a series of interactive splash screens to break up the course, so that our safeguarding culture course would offer a manageable and memorable learning experience for everyone.
Peace of mind with testing
This course also has an assessment at the end which allows learners to test their understanding and helps businesses demonstrate a level of competence in the topic.
With a bank of questions learners will get randomised assessments which means if people do fail the assessment, they aren't faced with the same quiz again; after all you want to test learners knowledge and not their ability to remember the right button to press second time around.
Everyone has the right to learn and learner need can vary demanding on environment or disabilities. This course comes with transcripts so people have text options for an media, subtitles for all videos and is screen reader friendly with alternative text.
We take a number of steps to ensure visuals and navigation is easy for your people.
Certified training
This course is an IOSH approved courses which means you're getting industry best practice content in health and safety.

This emulsion is a natural skin-conditioner. It is essential for skin health. Most skin oils are formulated with emulsifiers, which are essential for skin health. Emulsifiers include: coconut sugar, lauric acid, n-octyl acetate, polyvinyl butyrate, glycolic acid, phthalate, and glycolic acid.
Emulsifiers are a part of the natural skin care industry, and the best way to get the best emulsifiers is to buy them online. Just to name a few brands that are top-quality, go to www.thebestemulsifiers.com.
The only other brand that is listed in the list is Cucurbit.com, which is only one percent of the others, so it’s not quite enough.
Emulsifiers are simply a very, very powerful emulsion that helps keep skin moist and hydrated. A lot of people have a hard time understanding why it is that the main ingredient in their skin care products is a very artificial substance. But that’s only part of the problem.
I don’t think emulsifiers are for everyone. You can get your own emulsion for your own purpose, but in the end, the difference between emulsifiers and skin-care products is that emulsifiers are all about the amount of butter they are. If you’re going to take out a moisturizer, then moisturizer and moisturizer. That’s one of the biggest differences between emulsifiers and skin-care products.
The trouble is that skin-care products are all about the amount of emulsion they are. If youre going to take out a moisturizer, then moisturizer and moisturizer. Thats one of the biggest differences between emulsifiers and skin-care products. There are two main reasons for this, one you dont want too much butter in your skin because your skin will feel tight and dry if you eat too much. Emulsifiers are like moisturizers.
Butter is a great moisturizer. It is also a very good emulsifier. And the major reason youre not eating too much butter is because you can make your own. You can make your own butter by adding coconut oil, olive oil, or other oils. It is a great way to take out most foods.
Emulsion is basically the oil-in-water process used to make butter. You can use emulsifying agents in the same way you use moisturizers. But emulsifiers are used in so much more. You can even take emulsifiers to the next level by using them to make a variety of things such as detergents, shampoos, and skin care products.
I have never been able to use emulsifiers in cosmetics because I have a really sensitive skin and my skin care products leave a strange residue on my skin. It’s as if I’m just eating something that I don’t like. I know it’s a reaction to the products, but I can’t seem to shake it off.
Some emulsifier, such as the one below, can help to prevent this. It also prevents water from separating from the skin, which is a common problem for those with oily, itchy, chapped, or itchy skin.

Today, we’re shining the light on Tony & Ness – aka. the super couple who have built their eCommerce business at the same time as their dream home… All while looking after and home-schooling their 3 kids. They share the rollercoaster of their journey and have a ton of wise words for us all!
Before we get into ‘question time’ where we get all the juicy stuff, you can meet them (and get a sneak peek into their new build!) in the short video below.
Your Browser does not support Iframes.
And 6 months later, here’s where they are at…
Let’s start with a bit about who you are and how you got into ImportXperts?
Hello, we’re Ness & Tony! We have been members of the SFM for almost 4 years. We joined after Tony had an accident, fell off a roof and broke his arm. It meant he couldn’t work his normal day job as a builder. We needed to find a way to make a living at home or we wouldn’t be able to support our family… Then, we joined the Import Xperts team in November 2017.
We had always liked selling random bits and bobs on eBay, so when we heard about ImportXperts to help us make it into a business, we thought it’d be perfect for us.
Had you ever sold anything online before joining ImportXperts?
Actually yes – we tried to, but it didn’t go so well!
We jumped on what we thought was a ‘trending’ product: loom bands. We spent £5k [$6.3k) on stock but when we finally launched, we were too late to the game. The demand had hugely fallen and the sales just didn’t happen.
And that’s why we joined ImportXperts really – to help us shape our ideas so we didn’t make any more mistakes. We liked the sound of step-by-step guidance and support, especially after spending so long “trying to figure things out”. It’s been great so far and we are loving the journey!
So tell us a bit about where you are now.
In the last year, we have started selling across Amazon, eBay, and Gumtree. It’s quite fun to sell across multiple channels and it’s even given us the love back for eBay, as it’s so easy to create a listing there.
We have been focusing mostly on our brand, Minky Babies: a baby brand with no nasties, no chemicals, plastic-free packaging, etc.
We also sell a few other unrelated products where we spotted some gaps in the market, with high demand and low competition. We quickly jumped on board, briefed the agents in China, and started selling them! We figured the more products we try – at least we’ll further “learn our craft”!
What has been your proudest moment since starting your eCommerce journey?
Getting Amazon’s choice for our baby pram muff was amazing. To have Amazon’s recommendation was a great vote of confidence but we got a big spike in sales from that too! Plus, it gave us a little reassurance that we can do it.
We’ve also just hit our first major goal as we made $10k in revenue in the last month. We couldn’t be more excited that our first income goal is now ticked off the list… now the next one is 20k a month!
How about seeing your products in person for the first time?
Oh yes – receiving our Minky Babies pram bag was one of the best moments too!
We had worked on the sample for months, so when we saw the final prototype (or finished product), all the hard work felt worth it.
You’ve obviously created a great product with $10k in sales in one month! Have the sales been quite regular?
Sales always fluctuate on a day-to-day basis but generally, it’s been pretty amazing.
This month we’ve generated 26% more revenue compared to the last month. And this year, we’ve generated over 1000% more revenue than last year! (That change happened when we joined ImportXperts)
It just shows it’s incredible what you can achieve with the right guidance and training. If we carry on at this rate, we’ll continue to grow our brand into something really special.
What part have you enjoyed the most?
We’ve probably enjoyed sourcing the product the most. Going to China last year with the ImportXperts team was incredible. It’s like a product playground! We met with suppliers and just got SO much inspiration.
We’re still refining the samples – and it’s taken longer than we would have liked – but we know it’s important to get it 100% right. The feeling when we see our final product makes it all worthwhile.
Have there been any challenges that almost lead to you throwing the towel in?
Blimey, there have been challenges, but we agreed from the beginning that we would not give up. We always hold the end goal in sight and I think that really helps.
We’ve had our listings canceled, accused of infringement (wrongly!), listings getting blocked, stock being damaged, and just rude customer emails – but these are just hurdles to overcome and if you really want it, these are some of the problems you might come across.
The closest time that we came to throwing the towel in was when we found a box of our stock damaged in the rain. This happened the same day that we received a rude complaint from a customer who wanted her money back because she found a similar product cheaper elsewhere.
We’d also had a quality-control report back that day, where one of our sample products was far from ideal. We had issues with the delivery company we were using. And we’d had a lot of issues at home too…
House dramas (we’re building our house at the moment and have been living in a mobile home for nearly 2 years)
A crazy 2-year-old hooligan daughter had been running around, causing havoc!
And our other 2 other children were at home too. It was manic, to say the least!
That was all within a couple of days, and it did make us question things.
Wow, that sounds pretty crazy! How did you keep on going?!
Well… I [Ness] actually considered applying for a “normal” job, like working behind the supermarket tills. I thought maybe it would be easier if I just went to work, came home, and didn’t have to think about work outside of the 9-5.
However… a few days later…
I worked out that if we sell just one product per hour – with a profit of £6 [$7.50) – we’d earn more than minimum wage.
That way, we wouldn’t have to trade our time for money, and we’d still keep our freedom.
So far, we have exceeded that! And what other career allows you to look after 3 kids at home, as well as manage a self-build house? I realized we had a pretty sweet deal after all, and it’s totally worth all the hurdles.
Imagine where we will be in another year when the house is finished and we have more time too!
Yes, there are hurdles and you’ve gotta be resilient. People face them all the time in life, it’s your solutions that separate you.
Plus, we said from day 1 that we wouldn’t give up… So we had to stick to it!
That’s very inspiring! Has it been more or less work than you envisaged before you started?
The thing about eCommerce is that it takes a bit of time and effort to start, but once you’ve set it all up, it’s fairly easy to keep it ticking along.
Of course, it’s been hard work – is anything ever easy these days? But the money we get back, compared to the effort we put in, is what keeps us going. Plus we love the excitement of bringing really amazing and unique products to people.
It’s the end of goal of seeing other members making $10k+ per month.
Our best month to date is £4000 [$5000], and it just seems to be going up! Once you’ve found the product, created the listing, and optimized for launch – it’s fairly easy after that.
Have you been enjoying the nomadic lifestyle?
Not at all! We’ve been working from our mobiles homes on our self-build plot, but that’s only because we’ve been building our dream home at the same time as our business. And we’re also starring in a self-build TV show too!
But the fact that we can do all this is amazing! So when our home is all finished, we like the idea of spending more time away for family holidays.
Using Amazon’s FBA service, you can work from anywhere in the world. That was one of the most appealing reasons for us.
What are some of your ultimate goals and aspirations for your business?
After we finish building our home, we’re going to focus all our attention on Minky Babies and lose the smaller “fad” products.
We want to grow our brand into an online shop, full of good quality, plastic-free, and chemical-free baby products. We have massive dreams to revolutionize the baby market by developing all these no-chemical products for babies.
So what’s next for your business?
We’re about to build our Shopify website so we can start to generate our own sales. We’ll also continue to grow eBay and Amazon.
We’re also sourcing new products so we can scale up our business. We need to continue to grow and evolve otherwise we’ll just be standing still – and no-one ever gets anywhere doing that.
And finally, what words of wisdom do you have to offer someone looking to start an eCommerce business?
Be patient, resilient and always keep going. You will only fail at something if you give up on it.
Everyone wants the lifestyle but you need to be prepared to put the work in.
And if you’re sourcing products in China, don’t rush. Make sure your samples are perfect; this might mean going back to the agent three times. But it’ll be worth it, you’ll have a fantastic product that your customers should love if you’ve been meticulous about it. And then you’ll be destined for success!
We won’t let ourselves quit; we keep telling ourselves “this has to work”. And we are not going to stop!

hello, i have been with sfm for over a year now but, admittedly i haven’t been 100%. i thought I was but wasn’t.
I think I finally understand then concept of ‘ changing the mindset’. Reading the success has given me a huge boost simply because I am child free and I don’t have nearly as many distractions so there’s no more excuses now.
Time to get a grip, grit my teeth and make this happen.
23 Aug 2019 at 7:42 pm
I am inspired by the passion and truth of your journey to freedom with your family, lifestyle, product line, webpage, and income etc. Thank you so much for sharing from your home and heart. I am in module 3 and can see how every aspect of SFM will assist myself and family ti gow our hearts journey too. Alway keep moving forward with our dreams and aspirations. Sincerely, Jennifer Price
Hi everybody, I’m at the end of module 2. I’m going really slow, I have a full time job that I can’t leave now. I’m learning everyday from everybody and applying to my daily life, so when my time came I can do it too!!!!!
7 Feb 2020 at 9:25 pm
From what I have heard and seen thus far it has once again ignited my inspiration for not only being resilient in and dedicated to my success, but it has also once again ignited my inspiration for continuous learning.

Most CSR departments are run like this: A few passionate people, operating on the company’s fringes, are put in charge of creating impact.
These disconnected passion projects don’t constitute a purpose. CSR departments tend to be afterthoughts. The programming they run is inconsistent and doesn’t ladder up to a larger vision. There is limited to no visibility and awareness of the CSR department’s work even within the organization’s own walls.
Think back to the places you’ve worked. Now raise your hand, if any of them fit this description of having a CSR department that’s disconnected from the business. Or, of not even having a CSR department. Keep your hand raised if the majority of the places you’ve worked fit that bill.
For purpose to be an effective and inspiring rallying cry to the entire organization, it needs to be at the heart of the organization. Integrated into the overall business strategy. Guiding decisions. Not a “nice to have” that’s only considered during prosperous years, but a guiding vision for how the company will leave the world a better place because it existed.
A vision that is so integrated into the brand that every employee can say it back (heck, it’s the reason why top talent sought out your company in the first place!). The reason employees talk about where they work with pride. The reason they dedicate their heart, skills and brain power to innovate a constantly improving roadmap to make your vision a reality. A roadmap that keeps you in a different league from your competitors.
Lesson: For purpose to be effective, it needs to guide the way you make money, as well as how you give it away. This removes the tension between doing good and earning a profit. With this reframing, the success of your company is directly related to the size of the impact your company has.
The more sales you make, the closer you are to your vision of a better world.
Your voice matters. Use it.

I recently came across a video produced by ABC News a couple of years ago. This video documented what they called a “controlled study” and claimed conclusively that “concealed carry permit holders are fooling themselves if they think they will be able to react effectively to armed aggressors. Most CCW holders won’t even be able to un-holster their gun. They will more likely be killed themselves or kill innocent bystanders than stop the aggressor.”
Needless to say, the only thing about the study that was controlled was the outcome. Without going into too much detail, the news crew gave a brief class on handguns to a few students whom they claimed had experience ranging from “never handling a gun” to “hundreds of hours” of weapon handling experience. Then they picked a student with no weapon experience outside of playing Airsoft and set him up to fail in a recreation of a shooting in a lecture hall at a college in Pennsylvania. Aside from the absurdly obvious anti-gun nature of the experiment, it did inspire me to write this article on an armed civilian’s role in dealing with armed aggressors in public.
First of all, it’s important to note that while there are civilians carrying concealed weapons with little or no training or practice in the deployment of said weapons, it is my experience that individuals who regularly arm themselves do train and practice as much, if not more than, the average law enforcement officer. An FBI study conducted in 2007, Violent Encounters: A study of felonious assaults on our nation’s law enforcement officers, noted that of the officers in the study, the average was 14 hours of weapons training per year. I can say with certainty that there are plenty of departments and officers who do far less than that. In contrast, over 80% of the offenders studied had 28 practice sessions per year.
An anchor point is an area that requires someone to meet certain criteria to gain entrance. Photo: author
The internal dynamics of deadly force encounters caused by stress, fear, and adrenaline will be similar regardless of venue. However, the external dynamics of deadly force encounters in public areas are starkly different from those that occur in private settings such as one’s home. What I mean more specifically is that in public areas, the chaos resulting from a deadly force situation, whether actual or perceived, can be magnified geometrically by the number of people involved.
Your home is what we call an anchor point. An anchor point is a place where one must meet some pre-existing requirement to gain access, such as ownership, membership, employment, etc. Anchor points by nature typically are less populated and the environment is familiar to those inside. Because of the restricted access, the individuals in that area are often familiar to one another as well.
Habitual areas like this shopping mall are open to the public with virtually no restrictions. Photos: author
Conversely, a habitual area is one where anyone can come and go without restriction. Because of their nature, habitual areas are subject to attacks by all types of individuals. Whether it is a terrorist seeking mass casualties, a gunman wanting to make a public statement, or even a stalker whose only way of approaching his target is when they are in the open, deadly force encounters in the presence of multiple people present specific and complicated dangers for the armed civilian.
Role of Armed Citizens
To identify the role of the armed civilian in a public deadly force emergency, we have to look at the difference in the societal roles of that civilian versus the role of an identifiable (uniformed) law enforcement official. The latter subscribes to what we call a “priority of life” protocol. The law enforcement priority of life protocol places the highest value on the lives of innocent civilians, victims, and hostages. Next in line comes the life of the officer, and last is the life of the perpetrator. It is the duty of the officer to put his life second to those of the people he serves. The officer’s uniform also clearly identifies him and his role to the public.
The priority of life protocol for the armed civilian is monolithic. The only concern should be self-defense. Included in that is the defense of your significant others in your immediate vicinity. While law enforcement is sometimes tasked with going on the offense – moving toward the threat – the armed civilian should (in most cases) be moving out of harm’s way and using deadly force only when necessary for personal defense. This task may prove difficult in public because panicked crowds tend to exhibit “herd” behavior.
Herd behavior stems in part from things called mirror neurons. Mirror neurons are the part of our brain that makes us smile when people smile at us, or makes us yawn when we see (or even hear) someone yawning. Mirror neurons help us learn by aiding in the replication of actions that we see. On a subconscious level, in addition to the mirroring of actions, the mirroring of emotions, beliefs and intentions associated with those actions can also occur. For example, when a person smiles at us, the mirror neurons cause us to smile back and can in the same manner create an emotional state that would typically accompany a smile. In the same manner, mirror neurons can account for the rapid spread of mental states throughout entire groups of people.
This image was taken from the author’s experiment. As the person on the right engages the suspect/actor in the far room, the person on the left is moving across his field of fire. These two consecutive frames show the first shot fired and the relative distance traveled by the person on the left in that short time frame. (Click to enlarge images.) Photos: author
Aside from helping us learn, mirror neurons help us survive. When one bird in a flock flies off in a panic, it is usually only an instant before the rest follow. If one or two sheep, cattle, or horses get spooked, they can create panic in the entire group. Only one or two members of the group may have actually seen or perceived a particular threat, but the others, seeing the fear and its associated actions, mirror that emotion, causing it to spread rapidly through the group. From an evolutionary survival perspective, it is not necessary for every zebra in the herd to see the lion and make a rational, conscious decision to flee. One zebra sees the lion and, within seconds, the entire herd is fleeing based on that one zebra’s decision.
People behave in a starkly similar fashion. A scream, gunshot or other such stimulus can start the panic, and the crowd of people begins to run away. Many in the crowd may not know exactly what they are running from, but they know they are running from something, and that is all that matters.
This causes some very distinct problems for the armed civilian. The first is target identification and recognition. Either caught up in the herd movement or watching it from a close perimeter, identifying the target can be very difficult. Even if you can identify it, being able to engage the target in a rapidly moving, dynamic situation can be nearly impossible.
In any deadly force encounter, we know that we hyper-focus on the threat. This means we focus on the threat to the extent that we block out much of the rest of the environment. Just as it takes a measurable amount of time to pull a trigger, it also takes a measurable amount of time to stop pulling the trigger in the event that something or someone steps into our line of sight. In the chaos of a crowd, you may think you have your sights on the target, but just as you pull the trigger, someone may step in front of you.

Not long ago, I put this theory to the test in a controlled experiment using law enforcement officers whose training and experience ran the gamut from fresh out of the academy to years on a SWAT team. Using non-lethal ammunition in a force-on-force exercise, we had two students enter a room under the guise of searching for a wanted suspect. (I chose a confined area to maintain control of the experiment.) The first student was an actor in the exercise, while the second was unaware of what was about to happen.
The students would spread out upon entering the room. A role player in an adjacent room would emerge and begin firing at the second student while the first student crossed between the student and the role player. Roughly half the students shot their fellow student in the back. A large number reported they were so focused on the threat that they never saw the other student until after they had pulled the trigger. Several noted that they recognized their fellow student was moving across their line of fire but they could not stop their trigger finger fast enough (or move the muzzle) to avoid shooting the innocent in the back.
The other major problem facing the armed civilian in public is that he or she may be mistaken for the bad guy. An officer responding to a chaotic scene sees you with a gun in your hand. Before you know it, he shoots you, thinking you’re the bad guy. This has happened multiple times in the past. Not only armed civilians, but even off-duty or plainclothes police officers have been mistakenly shot by responding uniformed officers who thought they were perpetrators. Another armed civilian may see you and mistake you for the bad guy as well.

Armed Citizen Responsibilities
Since the principal role of the armed citizen is self-defense, the armed citizen should do their very best to conceal their weapon until the moment they are willing and justified to use it. The armed citizen should also assume the responsibilities of proper and ongoing training and practice to ensure that when it’s time to use that weapon in self-defense, they can quickly and fluidly present it to the threat and accurately engage. As a general rule, the firearm is not a tool for idle threats.
As an armed civilian, I do not want anyone to know I have a weapon until it is time to use it. My intention is that the first notifications a bad guy will have that I am armed are a loud noise and a flash.
In closing, as a citizen exercising your right to carry a weapon for self-defense, you must maintain a constant vigil to keep your skills sharp. Understand your role and make certain that if circumstances require, you are able to assume that role and become a solution rather than a problem.

An excellent article. Should be must reading for those obtaining a firearms license. I will share it with several friends of mine who carry and think it is smart to “cowboy up” and jump right into a gunfight. Thank you for your insights on this matter.

Agreed! I’m glad to see this issue addressed.
Jim July 17th, 2014
Two comments:
1) A few decades ago, when I was a federal LEO, we were issued one box (50rnds) of ammo per month for practice. Most of the folks in my dept. gave me their ammo b/c I actually liked to practice.
2) There has been a recent trend among Police Chiefs and Policed Commissioners to go public, after an officer is involved in a questionable shooting incident, and say that the officer’s safety is their primary responsibility. I guess it pairs well with the MRAPs.
Rich Nable July 28th, 2014
In my department, there are a regular few who show up for their 50 rounds a month. They are definitely the exception rather than the rule.
Thanks for the comments!
-Rich
Todd November 4th, 2017
Maybe I’m naïve, but you’re seriously expected to be proficient based on 50 rounds a month? Is there additional weapons training or is it all self-directed using those 50 rounds?
I go through 500+ rounds per month and would love to train more.
Greg Raven July 17th, 2014
Great analysis. The only thing I would add is that as an armed civilian, you really need to monitor your environment at all times, with special emphasis on the fact that the bad guy on whom you are focusing may not be alone. Unfortunately, we just had an incident a couple months ago where a permit holder engaged a bad guy without realizing that the bad guy’s girlfriend was also a threat, and lost his life as a result of trying to help.
Rich Nable July 28th, 2014
Thanks Greg – You are so right! I was going to include that incident in the article but was already over the limit on size. Keep up the good work and keep checking back on the Personal Defense Network!

Allen August 12th, 2014
This is an excellent article, and my dept pushes this idea into our agents heads for them to think about when they are off duty.
The only flaw in this article is the statement that law enforcement is expected to put a citizens life before their own. Make no mistake, LEO’s do not trade lives. They are expected to take calculated risks, but at no time is a law enforcement officer required by law or even expected to voluntarily sacrifice their life in order to help a stranger (not saying an officer wouldn’t be willing to do so in certain situations) Most depts. use the strategy “risk a lot to save a lot, risk a little to save a little”. When push comes to shove the officers safety is placed as a priority above everyone, then its other responders, then civilians, and finally the bad guy in that exact order.
Kerry Dillenburg October 23rd, 2017
Very thought provoking article, you brought up things I hadn’t thought about and could have cost me my life in the “right” circumstances.
Kerry Dillenburg October 23rd, 2017
Being just a civilian I have a problem that a LEO wearing a bullet proof vest isn’t willing to risk taking a hit to save the life or lives of those less protected. But since you’re not willing to practice being able to take out the bad guy by shooting your minimum 50 rods per month I shouldn’t be surprised.
Frank McMillan October 22nd, 2017
This is a good read! I’ve been in law enforcement for over 30 years at the state and federal level. I’ve also had some of the simulation munitions training and it’s true that target identification and focus lead to serious issues. Training can definately help prepare but no one can know what will happen until it’s occurred. I carry a badge off duty that I can clip to my clothes or flip out from a neck chain in the event of a shooting. When we had this training recently about off duty shooting events it was amazing how easy it is to forget to display the badge immediately afterward. Again, good article.
Rollin October 22nd, 2017
And hope you already have some insurance to cover a civic shooting.
Like they say, now that you’ve saved your’s and/or other’s lives, you’ll find yourself in the legal fight of your life.
Stephen Keller October 22nd, 2017
It doesn’t say in the article but the one thing that was always drilled into us during our military service and I had heard in the wife’s concealed carry class was to always communicate with each other. Always know what each other is doing. But in most cases the normal person is going to be so hyped up they are going to forget most of what they have been taught. Training, Training and more training is needed. Not just stop at one class. But that should be each persons responsibility. Just going to the range is not enough.
Kerry Dillenburg October 23rd, 2017
Very thought provoking article, you brought up things I hadn’t thought about and could have cost me my life in the “right” circumstances.
Otto October 23rd, 2017
Thanks for the article. The big new thing I learned is not to remove your firearm from concealment at the first sign of an active shooter, but to wait until the target is identified, in range, and that there is no obstruction between you and the target. Another point I would add is not to fire straight at the perpetrator, but to aim upwards or downwards (depending on whether you are in a multi-story structure) to minimize the chance of collateral damage if there is over-penetration.
I agree that, if in a large public space such as a mall, the proper action is to remove your family or friends from danger. However, if I was both alone and close to the perpetrator, I would probably attempt to engage. I would definitely engage if in a relatively smaller space populated by people I cared for, such as an active shooter in my church, if I could safely do so- sheepdog mindset.
Raymond Adams October 23rd, 2017
I saw the ABC news feature referenced in the beginning of this article. It was a no-win situation for the concealed carrier due to the fact that they were always placed in the same seat in the lecture hall and the shooter knew where they were so when the shooter entered the hall the concealed carrier was their target. Not a likely real-life scenario. What really upset me about the feature was that law enforcement was involved. The majority of police I know and deal with are okay with the trained concealed carrier. As for the concept of concealed carry. I believe in concealed carry, not open carry. It is my belief and there is evidence to back it up, that open carry makes you a target. An assailant cases a situation prior to committing an act of violence, robbery, etc., they look to neutralize defensive threats first. Great article that backs up what I say, if you carry, please take the time to train and if at all possible, get professional training. I go to the range every month and have a minimum 100 round per month habit (as my wife refers to it), I read, I practice, I train.
ljbertling October 23rd, 2017
Concealed means concealed. Keep your weapon holstered until you are convinced you need it. Remember, when you draw your weapon in the situation described in this article, no one knows you are a good guy. Absolutely agree with this article.
Vik October 23rd, 2017
Good essay. Very useful reminders to all of us who practice and carry. Thanks, Rich.
Joe McDraken October 23rd, 2017
Excellent and well wrote article. MSM always try to create some “anti-gun” fear among the viewers and try to look at us like “wacko gun lovers” or “happy triggers”. but behind the news there’s a political agenda from left who want us disarmed, so they can prevent an insurrection from “we the people” when our constitutional rights are trespassed when they get the control of the country.
As an airsoft player, i can say is not the same thing shooting an airsoft GBB gun (despite the delicious recoil) and the lightweight of their designs in a controlled and safe scenario, than fire a gun in a crisis situation. In my country of residence (Chile) the gun laws are too strict for law abiding citizens but not for criminals. those laws block our need to self-defense, no matter what we use as a weapon to protect ourselves and family. Is too strict at the extreme to say there’s only 16 civilians in a country of 17 millions, who have a concealed carry weapons permit license (i don’t include the active and retired armed forces personnel, because once a soldier, always a soldier) 16 privileged citizens! and the crimes are in a rise here!
In the other hand, we don’t only need weapons, we need to create a “gun culture” in my country promoting the trainings like practice shootings range fields and a well educated citizens about how to use a gun, when and under stressing situations. is not just draw and shoot.
George October 23rd, 2017
Great article! We need to have more of this type as reminders and instruction. Thanks a lot.
Nicholas Pidkamimy October 23rd, 2017
What if I’m in a fast-food restaurants and someone is holding up the restaurant.????
Troy October 25th, 2017
Unless they start shooting in your direction or randomly at anybody and you feel your life is in jeopardy, leave it holstered and be a good witness. They want money, not murder charges, so they most likely are not going to shoot anyone. Take note of anything that can help the police catch them.
John Decker October 23rd, 2017
My thought is to only get involved if I absolutely have to. In a case where I have family or friends with me, I will first attempt a group escape. If a criminal is close enough that escape is unrealistic and no police or security are in the area, I would engage, and try to stop the attack. If it was a case of hearing shots from a distance I would move away and try to leave the area entirely. Police are trained and paid to handle this type of situation. I’m not.
steve October 23rd, 2017
Sad as it was in myLTC class ,absolutely nothing like this was discussed
Dave October 23rd, 2017
Very well said!! This is something that generally is not talked about in CPL classes (at least the ones that I have attended) and should be!! Nice job Rich.
Peter Audette October 23rd, 2017
My experience is that many armed citizens are woefully undertrained and don’t know it !

You have confirmed what I have always thought. But I never thought to draw my weapon till when needed to avoid all the negatives you mentioned because of the peculiars of the situation.
Bill October 30th, 2017
I am a ‘regular shooter’ and have carried for over 20 years. These lectures and videos are priceless and I share them often. Thank you !
Richard November 2nd, 2017
excellent evaluation of things that can happen. This should be read at least weekly to refresh your mind.
I use the TV and snap caps to draw, recognize, and decide to shoot or not a predetermined bad guy ( male or female that is listed in the Preview of the program). Its a good alternative when you do not have a specialized range like the SEALS or SWAT teams have

Henrik Ahlström, a multi-talented artist and storyteller. Having worked within the world of theatre and big shows he is now taking the step into the world of moving pictures. He’s a background as an athlete and stuntman but later developed his skills as a Director, Producer and Writer. Henrik is an entrepreneur, a doer and a dreamer. He always carries out his projects to perfection and are looking to grow within Tulpa Creatives as the right-hand man to Richard Jarnhed and the team.
The interview was made with Henrik in May 2019.
What made you pursue working creatively within the film, TV and/or gaming world?
As a child I dreamed of becoming a moviestar and I always believed that I would be working in the film industry when I grew up. When I was 13 I got my first shot at stardom. I was cast as an extra in the movie 1939 playing a brat kid in Stockholm beating up a Finnish war refuge boy. The movie turned out to be the breakthrough for Swedish actress Helena Bergström. For me it wasn’t. My scene was cut from the movie. The movie is in all fairness still 3 hours long. As chance would have it life choose another path and I ended up working in the theatre and musical business instead. I actually started my career in theatre jumping of high buildings working as a stunt man after a few years as a professional freestyle skier going round the world. I instantly fell in love with theatre and musical and before I knew it I was working full time as an actor, singer, stuntman and later on director, writer, producer. Music has always been a big part of my life and I have always felt that there is a close bond between music, film and theatre. The first time I entered a theatre stage it was love at first sight. The adrenaline of being in front of a live audience got me hooked right away. There is also an element in theatre, or any live performance for that matter that is quite unique. It can be the same play you did last week or the same song you sang yesterday but something is different. It can’t be planned or scripted. It’s that unexplainable thing that happens when you put the right people together at the right time. It can be the energy of an audience or the connection between two actors that are finding out just in that moment, what the words they’re speaking actually mean. That is the essence that I wish to bring into filmmaking. A lot of the most memorable movie scenes of all time have an element of improvisation. The real magic happens when you recognize the strengths of your actors and you give them the right circumstances to excel. Having the right cast is everything. Really good actors can make a bad script fly and bad actors can make a good script crash.

I’m an artist, a storyteller and an explorer and by that I mean that I am always looking for knew challenges and ways to evolve. I’m a person who is guided by circumstance. I wouldn’t say that I’m superstitious but I have a strong faith in that life puts us where we need to be.
What motivates you and why do you work creatively?
I think being creative is part of my DNA. I have great respect for everyone who is dedicated to his or her everyday 9 to 5 job but I personally couldn’t do it. I need to pour my heart into something that affects people emotionally, whether it is to make them laugh or cry.
Tell us one memory from your previous work that still to this day inspires you.
I was doing a big show with rock, pop and dance music. Basically all the genres that you know work really well overall to a wide audience. A singer in the cast suggested we should do something different and try a number with Sámi jojk, which is a traditional Swedish native singing technique. The producers weren’t to keen on the idea but at the time we had this incredible talented modern dancer in the cast and I felt strongly that if we combined the vocals of the singer with her dance we would create something magical that the audience hadn’t seen before. We went with the idea and I was right. This taught me two things. One, that you should listen to people around you because good ideas can come from anywhere and two, that you should always trust your gut instinct and fight for what you believe is right.
What’s Tulpa Creatives for you?
For me Tulpa is the future and great expectations. I feel a great connection with Richard and Simon and I think that we share a vision and a common goal when it comes to what we want to achieve in the film industry. I expect us to change the future of creative filmmaking.
To tell stories that touches peoples core and stays with them throughout their lives. More specifically, a dream project would be making a great musical for the movie screen.
How do you see yourself?
I’d like to think that I’m brave. I wouldn’t say that I’m fearless but I always want to try new things or take a new approach to whatever it is I’m doing. To me it never seems like taking a risk doing things differently. It’s a bigger risk doing things exactly the same as everyone else.
I think I’m really good with people in general. I’ve always had a passion for bringing out the best in people and making them excel in their element. I think I have a good sense of when people need to be pushed and when they need space or encouragement.
Name a few movies and/or TV-series that inspired you a lot in your life.
Twin Peaks, E.T, Blade runner and Legends of the fall.
Do you have any advice for young filmmakers out there?
Trust your instincts and listen to your heart. It sounds like a cliché; in fact it is a cliché, but it’s true. Listen to your inner voice and don’t be impressed by authorities or celebrities. It’s good to have role models and people to look up to and respect, but always trust your own vision.
Which filmmakers have influenced you the most?
David Lynch has created some of the most interesting characters in film. Quentin Tarantino is brilliant when it comes to dialog and visuals in film as well as a very modern way of using film as storytelling. Other favourites are Steven Spielberg, Ridley Scott, Luc Besson, Tim Burton, Joel & Ethan Coen, Clint Eastwood and George Lucas. But the list goes on.
If you got the opportunity to remake a movie or TV-series, which one would you go for?
That’s a hard one. Tribute a masterpiece or remake one I think I would have done better? I think I’ll dodge the bullet and go with the tribute. My tribute would be Sergio Leone’s The good, the bad & the ugly. It’s old enough so you can expect new technology to make it even better and you get to tell a classic story to a young audience. Of course I would stay true to the movies essence with the original score by Ennio Morricone but in a modern recording. And If I can dream Clint Eastwood would co-produce and also make a tribute appearance in the movie as well. We probably should do the whole dollar trilogy when I think about it.
Working with a project, is it harder to get started or to keep going?
The start. For me it’s so important to get the foundation of the project really solid and in that process I can ponder for weeks about the basics. Once I get started there’s no stopping me. As you approach the finish line it’s also hard to let go of the project because you always find something that could have been done better. That’s why I always have people around me who know how to start and finish!
What was the most important lesson you had to learn that has had a positive effect on your work?
There is no such thing as a perfect in production. If that is your goal you are setting yourself up for failure. For many years I aspired to make the “perfect” production. It’s an illusion since in theatre and film there is no way to measure how good a movie or a play is. It’s not like math or any other perfect science that can be measured. That being said this shouldn’t stop you from striving to achieve excellence, which should be your goal no matter what your business is.
Mention one thing you think would make the film/tv/gaming industry better, what would it be?
It’s an industry that is quickly evolving with lots of new mediums. Streaming providers are producing tons of new material and have big resources and there is also the social media, allowing people who want to create movies to reach an audience much easier than before. With that being said I think what we are missing is an educational system that recognizes that; this is a legit business and that they need to create opportunities for young people to educate themselves in order to have a chance of pursuing a career in the film/TV/gaming industry.

People from social circles are getting married and having a child or two. They’re snorkeling their way through family bliss. There are others who are sky diving into their careers making a meaningful entrepreneurial life for themselves. Then there is me; happily unmarried and non-committed, floating through the abyss, rather jobless at the moment, sitting with my feet up against the wall, relaxing with my baby pug Chulbul while I read a book on my Kindle and nibble on a snack or two.
But I am also celebrating a very special occasion. It’s my second anniversary! Two years in the cancer universe. Woohoo! Thank you, thank you.
This special moment has left me misty eyed and I can’t help but put my book down and conjure up revoked memories of the time passed.
Salary hike. ‘Employee of the Quarter’. New job opportunities. Possibility of a romantic relationship. Lost weight and looking fine. Family doing well and me sitting on a shooting star that was going towards the land where all dreams came true… Or so I thought.
In January ’14, when I discovered the lump, my predictable reaction like any 21st century human was to refer to Dr. Google. The 3:00 am investigation concluded as breast cancer and I went crying to mums room giving her the news. She was quite perturbed and probably thought the conversation was her hallucination given my abrupt entry and drama during the darkest hours of the night.
Long story short, I got an FNAC and ultrasound which diagnosed me with Fibrodinoma. Apparently very common among women my age [evidently not] and after a 10 day sample of a stressful life, mine was a happy and normal one again. Who would have thought that the sample was just a trailer of what was to follow?
It was silly of me to not have realized that a growing lump could be a sign of cancer and I still feel very betrayed that the doctor didn’t take the opportunity to educate me on the symptoms or call for a follow up.
In July when the lump had grown uncomfortably large, I told mum I need to see a doctor again and I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t expecting cancer to be the diagnosis. Somehow it had haunted me since January anyway.
There it was – Malignant positive! High grade cancer. The sentence that demolished me. What followed was an abrupt exit from my job, shattering of dreams, ego and vanity, loss of interest in the romantic relationship I was pursuing and running to doctors, trying to comprehend what was going on. Will I live? Will I die? Was I already dead? Is this a joke? Please be a joke. I am too young for this and cancer certainly does not go well with my image.
What followed was a series of extremely brave steps from me. See, I have always been at the epitome of health since a young age. No fractures, bad accidents, illnesses or visits to the hospital until I was diagnosed. [Except when I was admitted for food poisoning and then banned for the ruckus created while they inserted and removed the Iv]. Therefore, needles and medical centers were largely alien to me and my fear of pain very real.
I do feel fate has a role to play and maybe the destiny of our lives is predetermined.
I had got a tattoo done on the nape of my neck in 2012 to get over my fear of needles [what a random rationale]. It feels like a mock of kismet that this very tattoo helped me realize that though I don’t like it, my threshold for pain is high enough to get through treatment. Funny how certain incidents intertwine into the fabric of our life to make more sense later.
I am very proud of myself for starting treatment with no tears or fear; except when I lost my hair. My doctors, nurses,support group, everybody said I was brave with the way I was handling my horror movie and that watching me gave them strength. I don’t understand what that means. Maybe I wasn’t cognizant of what was being taken away from me and what I was losing as a consequence of this disease. But I guess my detachment helped me live each day at a time and get through treatment with blissful ignorance.
Yes there were side effects to the treatment like heat flushes, nausea, weakness, restricted diet and I also experienced a bout of depression and major mood swings during one period. The death of my rabbit, my baby, my life, came as the rudest shock that I couldn’t cope with. It was the first big thing cancer had taken from me and my darling had to suffer because of my disease. I wasn’t there when he passed and that hurts me even today.
But apart from that, I think my life was great. I also got to travel to London for treatment.
Sight seeing, Winter Wonderland, New Years Eve celebrations by South Bank, Christmas dinner.. none of these experiences would have been possible without my cancer.
I had attended my dearest friends wedding and wore a gorgeous saree. Her wedding was an occasion I had been planning since we met in 9th grade and being a part of those beautiful celebrations was a dream come true. But back to treatment- I’m in London again! London is fantastic during summer, amazing weather, lovely sightseeing and Wimbledon! Center Court tickets to Andy Murray vs Vasek Pospisil and then the Djokovic vs Cilic match. What a fantastic day of quarter finals!
What more could I ask for? Meeting friends, pub hopping, devouring chips, Mugs of Pimms and Dissaronno, Nandos, Udon Noodles at Wagamama and my favorite weekend outings at Camden town. Of course, the fact that Oxford Street was two streets away from my hospital helped a lot too. Ahh life was a fest and I was there for my best friends birthday too!
So what if I was diagnosed with brain metastasis towards the end of the trip? I’m still alive and kicking aren’t I? From almost going into remission to getting a horrendous news, Summer of ’15 embedded every possible emotion within it. I came back, sulked over my fate for a wee bit but then picked myself up and started working by the end of the year.
I don’t work where I began at the beginning of the year anymore, but mum is opening her beauty salon and make-up studio next week and I will help her with that. That will be our latest adventure.
I don’t look the same anymore, I had a mastectomy surgery finally and feel liberated from that horrible haunting lump after two years. I didn’t get the reconstruction done as the surgery isn’t curing me.
I have put on and lost weight so often in this interim that I have ugly stretch marks.
Hence, with my bald head, single breast, and disproportionate figure, my vanity is below the poverty line and any hope of a relationship or marriage are presently out the window. But I don’t doubt for a moment that I am beautiful. I am!
Yes, I miss having someone to hug and call mine, but I’m glad I was single when I was diagnosed. I wouldn’t want to put the person I love through something as intense as this.
As I am sitting back right now, I won’t lie that I feel like a burden on my family. Cancer is an expensive disease and now after 730 days, the cracks begin to show. Private treatment in Central London wasn’t cheap. Nor are the tests, alternate therapies, living expenses and sundries. I wish I could take the pressure away from my parents. Or at least go into remission so that treatment can halt and I can resume being an asset rather than a liability.
But it’s something I don’t have control over. Maybe it’s karma. Maybe I attracted this so I am paying my dues, but that is fine. Life is Yin Yang and I have so much good come my way that focusing on the negative is very difficult.
My best friend is getting married at the end of the the year and I am his Best Man. From planning his stag do, to the dance performances at the functions, to my outfits; I am obsessed with the occasion and that’s keeping me going full throttle.
My soul sister will be getting married next year and then I will be obsessed with planning her wedding next.
Harry Potter and the Cursed Child is releasing end at the of this month and that has kept me going for long [OMG, I think I am going to hyperventilate into excitement on this]. Also, Sherlock season 4 will be out next year. Little objectives to look forward to, help me plan my life in short spans and not keep falling into the black hole of how long will I live? I have enough to keep me going.
So as I am celebrating my second anniversary in the cancer universe, I am only smiling and looking back with peace in my heart because I am alive and healthy and the more anniversaries I celebrate, the more cancer loses.
Will you celebrate with me?
