My beans are gay. Let me explain.
This morning I was messing around with Facebook Live Streaming. You know, that new thing where you point your phone's camera at yourself and hope a lot of people will watch your antics. But I actually had a question I needed advice on from my Facebook followers.
I doubted every single person who told me that. Somehow, I felt my beans were better, special, that they'd retain their perfect, flamboyant, outrageous shade of purple. But sadly, as they blanched in the water, the color blanched from them. They ended up looking like pedestrian, run-of-the-mill, supermarket-variety beans.
Bottom line: Royal Burgundy Bush Beans are nothing more than queeny poseur green beans in colorful drag.
So, here they are. My blush-less, colorless, deeply discouraging Royal Burgundy Bush Beans. As far as taste, they were marvelous: sweet and a bit earthy. I served them with a drizzle of chive blossom vinegar and a spritz of sea salt. But they were still green.
Tell me: How do your serve your traitorous purple (read: green green beans)?

Adoption is a topic very close to my heart, not because we chose it but because it's a beautiful medium to connect families. Gaurav and I were clear right from the beginning that we were going to have our baby through adoption. Luckily, by the time we were ready to register, the process had become centralized under CARA (Central Adoption Resource Authority), the new online process. After a lot of research, talking to as many families as possible and informing both sets of parents, we finally registered in January 2016 and welcomed Raahi home in March 2017. Back then, since the process was new, nobody knew the correct and full process, be it adoptive parents or SAA (Specialized Adoption Agency), because induction programs were still underway.
When we get into a system, it's really very important to know the process thoroughly so that we can sync in. We made some mistakes, we had our highs and lows during waiting period, but at the end, it was all worth it totally. Never once during whole waiting period or even later until we received the court order, we felt like blaming the system, may be because we had the smoothest process and a very helpful SAA where we received our referral from.
Trust the CARA website for rules and regulations and don't hesitate to approach CARA state coordinators at any point of time.
It's important for the SAA we choose for home study to be efficient because after we receive a referral, it's that SAA which provides us our original HSR (Home Study Report) which is one of the most important documents during legal petition.
Choose preferences wisely because there are limited chances provided to edit the profile.
After receiving a referral, it's important to check if the baby is legally free, because this aspect is more important than medical tests.
Take help from CARA officials at any point of time when you find yourself landed in any problem. There is a reason why their contact numbers and email ids are flashed on CARA website so that they can help us with facts rather than us sitting at home and assuming things and getting misguided.
Do not share the details of the baby (age, medical issues, SAA) with anyone except for the pediatrician after you receive the referral, be it orally or through social media because: (1) It's unethical (2) If you don't go ahead with the referral, the PAPs waiting after you might get influenced because of the more than required details shared by you and it eventually reduces the baby's chances to get placed for adoption.
Ideally, SAA is not supposed to provide us the details about the biological parents/ family of the child, so please don't force the SAA to tell you the same and even if the SAA is willing to tell, don't encourage them and even if SAA tells and you get the information, please don't share it with anyone because only the child is supposed to know it if only he/ she wishes to and only after he/ she turns 18 years old.
The Adoption took time. Love arrived instantly!!
Disclaimer: This post is not to malign or question anybody's choices. It's solely my experience and some pointers which might help people in waiting list to go ahead with the process. I strongly believe that adoption is a very personal choice and an individual decision and should be taken if only one wants to and not as a charity or social service.
Sneha Gaurav Singh is an event manager by profession (well, currently on a momma break) and nowadays, being known as Raahi's momma!! She makes it a point to spread awareness about positive adoption language and how the adoption process is friendly and helpful.
Am sure this is going to help a lot of parents out there seeking adoption.
Very nice & informative article on Adoption Milan!
It will surely help many parents who are willing to adopt.

As we enter the period of resolutions and goal setting for 2019, I thought it would be worth mentioning that there is an important first stage before goal setting, which is 'reflecting' how 2018 went?
When reflecting we want ask what happened? What was good ie what worked? And what was bad ie what didn't work? Then list them both. This way we learn from our mistakes. Then we can ask what did we learn from those mistakes? And how would I do it differently in 2019? These then become the basis of our goal setting for 2019.
If you want to go into reflecting more deeply for a full treatment, google Gibb's Reflection Cycle (Learning by Doing by Graham Gibbs. Oxford Polytechnic, 1988) and also google Johns' Model of Reflection (2006), which is a set of questions and even perhaps, if you want, combine the models.
Who you would become unearths your motivation (the why). If your goal is to be rich, who would you become? What would being rich allow you to do? Someone who simply stock piles wealth? Or, would it allow you to start a foundation for some greater good that is meaningful to you. So who you would become is perhaps Generous, an expression of who you really are. Of course we are much more than that, as possibilities are infinite. Approaching goals this way, is what leads us to ultimate fulfilment.
Meanwhile, celebrate your 2018 achievements with a glass of fizz tonight, and start your reflections tomorrow!

Engineering fit
Find sources: "Engineering fit" – news · newspapers · books · scholar · JSTOR (April 2016) (Learn how and when to remove this template message)
Engineering fits are generally used as part of geometric dimensioning and tolerancing when a part or assembly is designed. In engineering terms, the "fit" is the clearance between two mating parts, and the size of this clearance determines whether the parts can move independently from each other, or are then temporarily or even permanently joined. Engineering fits are generally described as a "shaft and hole" but are not limited to just round components. ISO is the internationally accepted standard for defining engineering fits, but ANSI is often still used in North America.
ISO and ANSI both group fits into three categories: clearance, location or transition, and interference. Within each category are several codes to define the size limits of the hole or shaft - the combination of which determines the type of fit. A fit is usually selected at the design stage according to whether the mating parts need to be accurately located, free to slide or rotate, separated easily, or resist separation. Cost is also a major factor in selecting a fit, as more accurate fits will be more expensive to produce, and tighter fits will be more expensive to assemble.

2.3.5 RC5 and R6: medium running fits
2.3.6 RC7: Free running fits
2.3.7 RC8 and RC9: loose running fits
ISO system of limits and fits[edit]
The International Organisation for Standardization system splits the three main categories into several individual fits based on the allowable limits for hole and shaft size. Each fit is allocated a code, made up of a number and a letter, which is used on engineering drawings in place of upper & lower size limits to reduce clutter in detailed areas.
Hole and shaft basis[edit]
A fit is either specified as shaft-basis or hole-basis, depending on which part has its size controlled to determine the fit. To elaborate: in a hole-basis system, the size of the hole remains constant and it is the diameter of the shaft that is varied to determine the fit; conversely in a shaft-basis system, the size of shaft remains constant and the hole diameter is varied to determine the fit.
The ISO system uses an alpha-numeric code to illustrate the tolerance ranges for the fit, with the upper-case representing the hole tolerance and lower-case representing the shaft. For example, in H7/h6 (a commonly-used fit) H7 represents the tolerance range of the hole and h6 represents the tolerance range of the shaft. These codes can be used by machinists or engineers to quickly identify the upper and lower size limits for either the hole or shaft. The potential range of clearance or interference can be found by subtracting the smallest shaft diameter from the largest hole, and largest shaft from the smallest hole.
Types of fit[edit]
The three types of fit are:
Clearance: The hole is larger than the shaft, enabling the two parts to slide and / or rotate when assembled.
Location / transition: The hole is fractionally smaller than the shaft and mild force is required to assemble / disassemble
Interference: The hole is smaller than the shaft and high force and / or heat is required to assemble / disassemble
Clearance fits[edit]
Description and usage
Example fit
Loose running Larger clearance where accuracy is not essential - e.g. pivots, latches,
parts affected by corrosion, heat, or contamination
H11/c11
Free running Large clearance where accuracy is not essential and involves high running speeds,
large temperature variations, or heavy journal pressures
H9/d9
Easy running Moderate clearances with minimal requirements for accuracy - e.g. high running speeds,
large temperature variations, high journal pressures, long shafts, pump or fan bearings
H9/e9
Close running Small clearances with moderate requirements for accuracy - e.g. moderate running speeds
and journal pressures, shafts, spindles, sliding rods
H8/f7
Sliding Minimal clearances for high accuracy requirements, which can be easily assembled
and will turn & slide freely - e.g. guiding of shafts, sliding gears, crankshaft journals
H7/g6
Location Very close clearances for precise accuracy requirements, which can be assembled without
force and will turn & slide when lubricated - e.g. precise guiding of shafts
H7/h6
For example, using an H8/f7 close-running fit on a 50 mm diameter:
H8 (hole) tolerance range = +0.000 mm to +0.039 mm[1]
f7 (shaft) tolerance range = −0.050 mm to −0.025 mm[2]
Potential clearance will be between +0.025 mm and +0.089 mm
Transition fits[edit]
Tight fit Negligible clearances which can be assembled or disassembled by hand - e.g. hubs,
gears, pulleys, bushings, frequently removed bearings
H7/j6
Similar fit Negligible clearance or interference fit which can be assembled or disassembled with a rubber
mallet - e.g. hubs, gears, pulleys, bushes, bearings
H7/k6
Fixed fit Negligible clearance or small interference fit which can be assembled or disassembled with light
pressing force - e.g. plugs, driven bushes, armatures on shafts
H7/n6
For example, using an H7/k6 similar fit on a 50 mm diameter:
H7 (hole) tolerance range = +0.000 mm to +0.025 mm
k6 (shaft) tolerance range = -0.018 mm to +0.002 mm
Potential clearance / interference will be between +0.043 mm and −0.002 mm
Interference fits[edit]
Press fit Light interference which can be assembled or disassembled with cold pressing - e.g. hubs,
bearings, bushings, retainers
H7/p6
Driving fit Medium interference which can be assembled with hot pressing or cold pressing with large
forces - e.g. permanent mounting of gears, shafts, bushes (tightest possible with cast iron)
H7/s6
Forced fit High interference shrink fit requiring large temperature differential of parts to assemble,
permanent coupling of gears and shafts that cannot be disassembled without risking destruction
H7/u6
For example, using an H7/p6 press fit on a 50mm diameter:
p6 (shaft) tolerance range = +0.042 mm to +0.026 mm
Potential interference will be between −0.001 mm and −0.042 mm.
ANSI fit classes (USA only)[edit]
Main article: Interference fit
Interference fits, also known as press fits or friction fits, are fastenings between two parts in which the inner component is larger than the outer component. Achieving an interference fit requires applying force during assembly. After the parts are joined, the mating surfaces will feel pressure due to friction, and deformation of the completed assembly will be observed.
Force fits[edit]
Force fits are designed to maintain a controlled pressure between mating parts, and are used where forces or torques are being transmitted through the joining point. Like interference fits, force fits are achieved by applying a force during component assembly.[3]
For more information, see Interference fit#Force.
FN 1 to FN 5
Shrink fits[edit]
Shrink fits serve the same purpose as force fits, but are achieved by heating one member to expand it while the other remains cool. The parts can then be easily put together with little applied force, but after cooling and contraction, the same dimensional interference exists as for a force fit. Like force fits, shrink fits range from FN 1 to FN 5.[4]
For more information, see Interference fit#Thermal expansion or contraction.
Location fits[edit]
Location fits are for parts that do not normally move relative to each other.
Location interference fit[edit]
LN 1 to LN 3 ( or LT 7 to LT 21?[citation needed] )
Location transition fit[edit]
LT 1 to LT 6
Location clearance fit[edit]
LC 1 to LC 19
RC fits[edit]
The smaller RC numbers have smaller clearances for tighter fits, the larger numbers have larger clearances for looser fits.[5]
RC1: close sliding fits[edit]
Fits of this kind are intended for the accurate location of parts which must assemble without noticeable play.
RC2: sliding fits[edit]
Fits of this kind are intended for the accurate location but with greater maximum clearance than class RC1. Parts made to this fit turn and move easily. This type is not designed for free run. Sliding fits in larger sizes may seize with small temperature changes due to little allowance for thermal expansion or contraction.
RC3: precision running fits[edit]
Fits of this kind are about the closest fits which can be expected to run freely. Precision fits are intended for precision work at low speed, low bearing pressures, and light journal pressures. RC3 is not suitable where noticeable temperature differences occur.
RC4: close running fits[edit]
Fits of this kind are mostly for running fits on accurate machinery with moderate surface speed, bearing pressures, and journal pressures where accurate location and minimum play are desired. Fits of this kind also can be described as smaller clearances with higher requirements for precision fit.
RC5 and R6: medium running fits[edit]
Fits of this kind are designed for machines running at higher running speeds, considerable bearing pressures, and heavy journal pressure. Fits of this kind also can be described with greater clearances with common requirements for fit precision.
RC7: Free running fits[edit]
Fits of this kind are intended for use where accuracy is not essential. It is suitable for great temperature variations. This fit is suitable to use without any special requirements for precise guiding of shafts into certain holes.
RC8 and RC9: loose running fits[edit]
Fits of this kind are intended for use where wide commercial tolerances may be required on the shaft. With these fits, the parts with great clearances with having great tolerances. Loose running fits may be exposed to effects of corrosion, contamination by dust, and thermal or mechanical deformations.

Looking forward to forecast-based financing in Zambia
Zambia last week became the latest country to embrace the forecast-based financing (FbF) model as a potential component of its national strategy for managing flood risk.
Sylvia Chalikosa, a minister in the Office of the Vice-President, said the government "has stepped up efforts to prepare for climate-related hazards which can be predicted given sufficient…tools and human capacity", and the introduction of FbF in Zambia would further strengthen preparedness.
Speaking at the start of Zambia's first national dialogue-platform on FbF that ended in Lusaka on Wednesday, she said the only way to achieve institutional, national and regional preparedness was to "strengthen access to early warning and action".
The National Coordinator of the Disaster Management and Mitigation Unit (DMMU), Yande Mwape, called for coordination in defining FbF interventions.
Trigger methodology
The Secretary General of the Zambia Red Cross Society, Abraham Geevarghese, advocated partnerships with the DMMU and other ministries in implementing FbF – supported by the Netherlands in Zambia – at the national scale.
The two-day Lusaka workshop on FbF, covered by local media, was hosted jointly by the DMMU and the Red Cross and attended by 35 stakeholders from other ministries, the UK Department for International Development, the Malawi and Mozambique Red Cross, NGOs and universities.
Planned early actions in Zambia will centre on areas where floods have the greatest impact, and work is now starting on developing relevant 'trigger' methodology.
As well as Zambia, the Netherlands government through the Netherlands Red Cross Society is supporting FbF in Mali.
The first deployment of forecast-based financing by the Red Cross Red Crescent anywhere in the world was in Uganda in 2015.

5 reasons to switch from cable to streaming
By Sponsored
last updated 12 March 2021
Discover the benefits of streaming, including content to entertain, help, inform, and so much more
(Image credit: amazon)
"What do you want to watch?"
How many times a week do you find yourself asking that question in your household? According to data from an Ericsson study, on average, Americans can spend up to one hour a day just looking for something they want to watch. As more people are turning to streaming services to quickly get to the content that matters to them, that number has started to shrink.
Part of the reason Americans have gained back their "endless surfing" time is due to streaming technology becoming more sophisticated. Streaming devices are no longer one-note fixtures in our home, but integrated services with multiple purposes. This technology is working harder than ever to help you find your favorites, discover new content, and so much more.
We talked to Sandeep Gupta, VP and GM of Fire TV at Amazon to learn how streaming has evolved. He suggested five reasons streaming can help you do more, stay entertained and make life easier.
1. Personalization
When it comes to your favorite shows and content, no two viewers are alike. That's why it's important to find a streaming service that allows you to create and set up profiles. This allows multiple users of the same device to set up their own preferences so they only see the content that meets their interests. "We believe that our devices should be helpful, proactive, and get smarter everyday based on the way you use them," said Sandeep. The more your device understands the type of content you prefer, learns about the shows you watch, the better recommendations your device will provide you. "These features help our customers eliminate 'endless scrolling,'" he added.
2. Discovery
As more networks, studios, and other entertainment companies introduce streaming content services, such as Disney+, HBO Max, Discovery+, etc., it will become increasingly important to help viewers find and watch what matters to them. Recently, Amazon redesigned their user interface on Fire TV. One of the primary reasons, added Gupta, was to help customers sift through the content on their devices in a more intuitive and discoverable way. Features such as Dynamic Row in the Fire TV user interface is a feature that helps make recommendations more personalized. Based on rankings and search, Dynamic Row organizes fresh content tailored to Amazon Fire TV customer's preferences, schedule and environment. And if all else fails, there's the Find option, which is a new destination on Fire TV to easily discover movies, TV shows, and more. All you need to do is search for your favorites or browse by popular genres (e.g. comedies, action), helpful categories (e.g. free, sports, live TV), or take a look through the Appstore.
Another helpful feature in overcoming the endless scrolling that comes with today's content options is voice. While there are times when it's easiest to browse via remote, more and more customers are finding they want to cut through to the content they love. Fire TV offers the option to leverage Alexa voice capabilities to find exactly the show, movie or app you're looking for – allowing more time for enjoying what your streaming device has to offer, and less time scrolling through apps and content that's irrelevant.
3. Value
Whether you've already cut the cord or are thinking of doing so, one of the biggest reasons people switch to streaming is the value. Signing contracts with cable providers locks you into packages they have created—often times delivering content you may never watch, nor does it meet your interests. For the same cost of cable, or even less, you have the freedom to choose what services, apps, and content you want on your streaming device. "Value and flexibility are the core reasons we see customers switching to Fire TV Sticks or Fire TV smart TVs," said Gupta. "We have multiple price points and a variety of streaming media devices and smart TVs options to meet budget needs and offer choice."
More and more, consumers are turning to streaming for more than just watching their favorite movies and shows. Whether you want to get in shape, to perfect your sourdough starter, or to simply save money, streaming content can help you find helpful programming to meet your interests. Over the past year, cord cutting has accelerated. Streamers, like Amazon's customers, have given rise in popularity to the following content categories:
Fitness: For people who can't get to the gym, or simply don't like that environment,
they've realized that their TV can be a tool for fitness all from the comfort and convenience of their homes. "Many fitness apps doubled in popularity over the past year," said Gupta. "There are plenty of workout apps that can help you stay fit at home through your Amazon Fire TV." Best of all, most require little or no equipment to get started such as Peloton (opens in new tab) or Daily Burn (opens in new tab).
Meditation and wellness: Not surprisingly, meditation and wellness apps have also grown popular as people seek control of their mental wellbeing and inner peace. Apps like Joyn (opens in new tab), or Wanderlust TV (opens in new tab) rank highly among users.
Cooking with the pros: With more time spent indoors, home cooking may need a shot in the arm. There are great cooking apps including Food Network Kitchen (opens in new tab), Simply Vegetarian (opens in new tab), or YouTube (opens in new tab) that can guide you through the creation of a meal from scratch, help you learn different techniques, and more. And, in many cases are guided by professional chefs.
Free content: There are tons of great free streaming and content services out there, such as Tubi (opens in new tab) or Crackle (opens in new tab). In fact, according to Amazon internal data, use of ad supported video apps is up 100% this year. With these services, you'll never run out of content to enjoy and the best part is—they're free.
Popular content: While niche categories are on the rise, streaming also offers you content it was originally created for--the movies and shows you love. From HBO Max (opens in new tab) to Disney Plus (opens in new tab), not to mention all of the award-winning content available on Prime Video, you can still enjoy all your favorite shows and movies on apps specifically designed for streaming. Live programs are also available on streaming. In fact, according to Amazon internal data, live streaming saw as much as 75% increase in hours watched, and more people watching live sports through streaming helped make the Live Tab the second most-visited destination on Fire TV.
5. Beyond streaming
"Probably the most advantageous feature of streaming is the ability to connect with other Alexa-enabled devices." said Gupta. "The combination of Alexa and Fire TV is making smart homes and connected cars even more sophisticated as voice is an incredibly natural way to interact with those environments." In fact, streaming devices can be connected to other smart home devices to create a connected solution for security, communications, and controlling other devices around your home, such as thermostats, lighting and sound. It's even possible to remotely control your vehicle from the comfort of your home. Just by asking Alexa, you can remotely lock or unlock their doors, start or stop the engine, adjust the cabin temperature, and more.
Whether you're looking to catch up on your favorite shows, use the TV in your living room to control the temperature or the lights, discover new interests, or anything else in between, streaming continues to evolve. Gupta concluded, "It's not just TV viewing anymore, it's a connected and intelligent smart-home experience that spans everything from finding movies or TV shows to watch, watching live sports, connecting to social media accounts." Streaming also offers less traditional "television" duties like taking a fitness or cooking class, dimming the lights, turning on the home security system, and checking what's on your calendar for the next day. Gupta added, "Today, streaming offers so much more than traditional television and yet we're just scratching the surface on what's to come."

Arthur Erickson, 1924 – 2009
By Frank Moher
Arthur Erickson, the great architect who died in Vancouver yesterday at age 84, was an artist who became great by remaining where he was. This was in marked contrast to many other western Canadian artists and thinkers, who achieved fame and success by moving away — or at least thought they needed to.
It probably never occurred to Marshall McLuhan, born Winnipeg, raised in Edmonton, not to try to leave. Atom Egoyan ditto. But Erickson made a choice early on to remain in his community, — though there was, as per McLuhan and Egoyan, an element of careerism to his decision. "I intend to stay," he told an interviewer in 1964, "because the potential is fantastic and because there are so few places left in the world with this emergent aspect."
His bet paid off. At the time of that interview, Erickson was finishing his work on Simon Fraser University, the design, executed on a mountaintop in the Vancouver suburb of Burnaby, that would make him famous. Other of his finest works, such as the Law Courts in Vancouver or the Glass Museum in Tacoma, Washington, rest in their surroundings and play with light and water in a way that more conspicuous commissions — Roy Thomson Hall in Toronto, the (unfortunate) Canadian Embassy in Washington — simply cannot. Erickson's genius lay not only in his understanding of the landscape but of the climate into which he was born. It was an aesthetic exquisitely rooted in absence. "An architect always imagines his buildings in sunlight and casting shadows," he told that same interviewer, "but here there aren't strong shadows, no highlights. In a sunny climate you are dealing with a white ground and a dark sky. It is the reverse here. You have a dark ground and a white sky. This means you see things in silhouette, without highlight, and psychologically it can be unpleasant. One is in a dark area and the light is above as at sunset — a melancholy feeling. This is the situation we live in most of the time."

Together the Queen of England and Donald Trump proceeded to Buckingham Palace in a carriage drawn by six white horses. Regrettably, the rear horse let go of a putrid and lingering fart.

REVIEW: Valiant (The Lost Fleet, Book 4) by Jack Campbell
Thursday , 8, May 2014 castaliahouse Book Review Leave a comment
Disclosure: This is the fourth book in The Lost Fleet and I'll refer to several events that took place in the previous three books but that I did not include in those reviews to avoid major spoilers.
In the previous book, Courageous, the fleet fought the Syndics in a battle that didn't go too well and then, against all expectations, in the very last pages, Captain Black Jack Geary decided to return to that battlefield to catch the enemy by surprise.
This suggested that in Valiant we would see a more daring Geary fighting even more desperate battles. Not yet. In Valiant, there is actually less space fighting but more discoveries and introspection. We learn more about the Syndics, and the hypernet gates, and the mysterious third party, and we get a closer look at some of the characters.
Something is wrong with the ladies
When I reviewed Dauntless, I said that one of the female characters was "so easy to hate" that I dedicated a couple of paragraphs to her. In the second book Victoria Rione didn't improve at all but she became Geary's confidant and mistress anyway. Then in Courageous, she learnt that her husband might still be alive. Then, all of a sudden, the coldhearted Rione had a serious case of shameful regret, she retreated to her quarters avoiding Geary but never hurried to tell him what was going on inside her troubled head and heart. By that time, Rione had realized also that Geary and Captain Tanya Desjani were meant for each other, even though Geary was still completely clueless about this.
This, of course, clears the way for Desjani. Except that honorable Desjani would never jump into bed with his superior officer, no matter how much she wants to. So, once again, we get not-so-subtle clues and hints to what we can expect in the next books. Namely, Geary will come back home to Alliance space as the victorious hero that won the war (or did very much to win it), he'll retire to a quiet place. And that quiet place will be none other than Desjani's home planet so, obviously, Desjani will be his feminine icing on the cake. However, by the end of Valiant, Campbell shows us something about the loyal female captain that sounds just too much like Rione and not at all what we've seen from Desjani.
It has to be the aliens!
In the previous books, the fleet discovered that "someone" had taken "something" from a long-abandoned Syndic planet. Campbell tells us that "they" used a very unusual drill to open the vault. And so, of course, it has to be aliens. It's not like the feet Marines ran into some traces of alien DNA, or weird looking footprints, or found footage showing little green men. No, it's just that the guys who broke into the Syndic base used a type of drill that no one had seen before.
It could be that the Syndics have a type of drill that the Alliance is not familiar with. After all, the Alliance fleet knows very little about what is going on with the Syndics, to the point that they do not even know the toponyms (or even the names of the planets) of the enemy space they are passing through. But somehow we have to believe that they know that the Syndics do not have that type of drill. Regrettably, in Valiant, Campbell gives us some more it-has-to-be-aliens non sequitur.
Politics and temptations
Aside from his odd affaire with Rione, Geary is not easily tempted. Badaya, one of the loyal captains, has already hinted that Black Jack Geary would enjoy ample support if he were inclined to become a military dictator upon returning to Alliance space. But our hero remains honorable and true to his oath.
New political enemies have appeared to cause trouble and have no problem playing dirty. But they are not as clever as the ones that Geary had to face in the first books. And Geary has scored enough victories to earn the trust of the majority of the captains and crews. It looks very much like political obstacles will not be a problem—at least, not while the fleet is still in Syndic space.
By the end of Valiant, it looks very much like Campbell has set everything in place for the last two books to be stuffed with fiercely desperate battles, political intrigue, and some teasing romantic tension.

Funny Weather: Art in an Emergency
Olivia Laing (Author)
'The book to help you make sense of the world' Stylist
'A brave writer whose books open up fundamental questions about life and art' Telegraph
In this remarkable, inspiring collection of essays, acclaimed writer and critic Olivia Laing makes a brilliant case for why art matters, especially in the turbulent political weather of the twenty-first century.
Funny Weather brings together a career's worth of Laing's writing about art and culture, examining its role in our political and emotional lives. She profiles Jean-Michel Basquiat and Georgia O'Keefe, interviews Hilary Mantel and Ali Smith, writes love letters to David Bowie and Freddie Mercury, and explores loneliness and technology, women and alcohol, sex and the body. With characteristic originality and compassion, she celebrates art as a force of resistance and repair, an antidote to a frightening political time.
We're often told art can't change anything. Laing argues that it can. It changes how we see the world. It makes plain inequalities and it offers fertile new ways of living.
'A warm, thinking, enticing sweep of a book, like spending the afternoon with your brainiest friend.' - Kate Mosse, author of The Burning Chambers.
