Week 2 Prime Time Picks: Saints vs Raiders
by Connor Grootenhuis.In Uncategorized.Leave a Comment on Week 2 Prime Time Picks: Saints vs Raiders
The Vegas strip. NFL history. New stadium. What a Monday night game this is going to be.
The Monday night game this week will feature the Las Vegas Raiders (1-0) playing their first game in their new city. They will be hosting the New Orleans Saints (1-0), and the game will be the first NFL event at the brand-new Allegiant Stadium. The stadium will be a tremendous sports and entertainment venue, and the game on the field is sure to be a good one as well.
Week 2 Prime Time Picks: Saints (-5.5) vs. Raiders (+195) O/U 48.5 — All lines via DraftKings
The Raiders (1-0) are coming off a 34-30 win at Carolina, and the Saints (1-0) are coming off a 34-23 win at home against Tampa Bay. With both teams sitting at 1-0, someone will have to take their first loss on Monday night, so let's take a look at the matchup and see who has the edge.
Saints Defense Gives Tom Brady Trouble in Week 1
The Saints took down Tom Brady and the Buccaneers in the Superdome last week, beating them by a score of 34-23. The Saints defense was causing problems for Tom all day, as they picked him off twice, including one pick-six.

Brady was 23/36 for 239 yards, and although he did have two TD's, those picks really played a huge part in the game. Brady was held to a rating of just 78.4. The Saints defense will look to give Derek Carr similar problems on Monday night. Carr looked solid against the Panthers last week, as he was 22/30 for 239 yards and one touchdown. He did not throw a pick and had a rating of 107.5. Granted, the Panthers defense is pretty awful, as they were 31st in pass defense a year ago. However, it was definitely a good start for Carr and the Raiders passing game, and it will be interesting to see how he fares against a much petter defense in the Saints.
Carr Insurance
The Raiders' offensive line lost starting right tackle Trent Brown after one series in the season opener, and lost backup Sam Young later in the first half. Nevertheless, the Vegas offensive line did a tremendous job in protecting their QB. According to Pro Football Focus, Carr was under pressure on only 10% of his dropbacks in Week 1, which was the best rate in the league. The Raiders will aim to keep Carr protected in Week 2 against a Saints pass rush that sacked Tom Brady three times last week.
Michael Thomas Injury
Saints stand-out WR Michael Thomas will miss his first game in four years on Monday, as he has been ruled out because of an ankle injury. This is a big loss for the Saints passing attack, as Thomas led the entire NFL in catches last season with 149, which was also an NFL record. The Saints offense sputtered a bit last week agains the Buccaneers, as Drew Brees only threw for 160 yards in the New Orleans win. But, he didn't necessarily need to put up big numbers, as his defense was doing a lot of the work, and the Saints held a big lead most of the game. To be fair, Brees still threw for two touchdowns and had a rating of 96.5, but the absence of Thomas will be a big one going into this week. To fill that void, the Saints will look to a number of different options, including newcomer Emmanuel Sanders, as well as RB Alvin Kamara, and TE Jared Cook. Sanders seems to be the new #1 receiver, and he only had 3 catches for 15 yards in Week 1, although he did have a touchdown. Other receivers Tre'Quan Smith, Deonte Harris and Bennie Fowler could also see more targets, as well as super-utility man Taysom Hill. Hill could play a larger part in the Saints offense in a variety of ways on Monday night, and it will be interesting to see how the offense looks without Thomas playing.
Saints Strong Rush D vs Raiders Effective Running Game
Along with a stingy pass defense, the Saints rushing defense looked strong in Week 1 as well. They held the Bucs to 86 yards on 26 carries, averaging 3.3 yards per carry. They will face a Raiders rushing attack that ran for 133 yards on 31 carries and 3 TD's last week against Carolina. Their 4.3 yards per carry average was led by Josh Jacobs, who scored all 3 TD's. To make the task more difficult for Jacobs, the Saints have not allowed a 100-yard rusher in 44 consecutive games. Jacobs is sure to get a fair amount of carries again this week, and whether or not the Saints are effective in limiting him could be a large factor in the outcome. The Raiders were 7-1 last year when rushing for at least one TD and 0-8 when they didn't. Getting Jacobs going early and often will be big for the Raiders.

Drew Brees' Losing Record in September
In Drew Brees' 276 career games, he has a record of 164-112. In what has been a Hall of Fame career, it is noteworthy that Brees has a losing record in the month of September. Here are his records by month in his career:
September: 29-31
October: 67-47
November: 69-44
December: 76-42
January: 2-2
He also much rather prefers to play at home as opposed to on the road. His rating at home throughout his career is 103.8, while on the road it is 92.8.
Allegiant Stadium Grand Opening
With the Raiders moving from Oakland to Las Vegas, they were in need of a new stadium. Monday night will be the opening game at Allegiant Stadium, which is the second-most expensive stadium ever built, with a cost of $1.9 billion. Nicknamed "The Death Star" by Raiders owner Mark Davis, the stadium that holds 65,000 people will be empty, but it will still be a home opener for the ages, as the NFL in Las Vegas era begins.
The Saints are the better team on both sides of the ball, but the absence of Michael Thomas really hurts them. I don't really know what their offense is going to look like without him. He is such big part of their passing game, and while the alternatives in Sanders, Cook, and Smith are formidable, they don't bring that centerpiece to the offense that Thomas does. This Saints offense has revolved around Thomas the past few years, and without him, there are a lot of questions to be answered. The Saints passing game was fairly inconsistent last week, as Brees only threw for 160 yards, and I just don't know what adjustments will be made without Thomas. Alvin Kamara figures to be a big part of the plan, but he had his lowest yards per carry average of his career last week, rushing for just 16 yards on 12 carries. The Raiders will be juiced to be playing in their new city and their new stadium for the first time. The national spotlight of doing so on a Monday night game will add some extra motivation. Derek Carr looked solid in Week 1, and he will have his hands full with a Saints D that picked off Brady twice last week. However, I think some of Brady's issues were due to lack of chemistry with all of his new Buccaneers teammates. Carr's offensive line was strong in Week 1, and if they can keep him protected again, I think Carr can keep them in the game. In addition, Josh Jacobs will need to be effective and efficient on the ground. The Raiders were 7-1 last year when rushing for at least one TD and 0-8 when they didn't. I think Jacobs will get lots of carries and will have a strong chance to get into the end zone again, as he had 3 TD's last week. I see the Raiders keeping this one close, and they will have a bit of an emotional boost as they open their incredible new stadium in Vegas.
Raiders +5.5

Porky the Poet (aka Phill Jupitus)
I had the gargantuantly unfortunate task of following this man at Glastonbury last year. He brought the house down and I'll never forgive him for that 😉 The tent is highly likely to be packed when he's on so come early for a good spot.
Porky The Poet emerged as part of the ranting poetry scene in 1983. Inspired by performers like John Cooper-Clarke and Linton Kwesi Johnson, he followed their example and started gigging with bands. It was here he met Billy Bragg, who took him on tour as a support act in 1985. This led to a fruitful period opening for The Housemartins, The Style Council, The Pogues, Gil Scott-Heron and many others. On the poetry scene, Porky became a London circuit regular for Apples & Snakes and Cast New Variety. Around about this time he lost all his poems in Newcastle, decided to quit, changed his name back to Phill Jupitus and did other stuff. In 2007, Phill was cajoled by fellow ranting luminary Tim Wells to start writing again and return to the performance poetry scene. In 2012 at The Edinburgh Fringe he did his first full-length show Twenty Seven Years On, followed that up with Zeitgeist Limbo, Juplicity and this year debuts the all-new Apologist Now as part of the PBH Free Fringe.

Peddling Weed To Those In Need
By Jonah Raskin on February 18, 2015
Do New Yorkers smoke weed? Yes, indeed, and apparently lots of it, though most of the New Yorkers on the new web series "High Maintenance" don't seem to know where it comes from or how it might have arrived in the city.
But that's all right. The series derives much of its appeal because it focuses on a closed universe with gravitation pulls of their own. The characters are so wrap up in themselves and their own little worlds that they don't seem to know much about the world beyond New Jersey, let alone the Mississippi River. California might as well be on another planet. Mendocino County? Where's that?
"High Maintenance," which began in November 2012, and that has attracted a loyal following ever since, offers slices of New York life. The characters are almost all young and hip; they're white and Asian and black and they're rooted in the subcultures of the city. Nearly all of them have "schticks," as New Yorkers would say. They're identified and identifiable by certain unique behaviors, such as smoking dope. They're urban dope fiends, though nothing really bad happens to them.
At times, "High Maintenance" feels like a study in provincialism, though "study" isn't exactly the right word to describe the series. The episodes are all short; less than 15 minutes each. Scenes shift rapidly. The dialogue sparkles.
"I have a pretty big clitoris," a woman says in one memorable episode. Sex underlines many of the stories while the music provides a sense of cool.
The endings are often ironical and surprising. O 'Henry, the master of the short story, would approve. Clearly the writers, Ben Sinclair and Katja Blichfeld, have been listening carefully to the ways that New Yorkers speak, to the rhythms of their conversations and not just to the things they talk about. But they're not just recording devices that play back what they've heard. The dialogue is inventive, witty, and believable, too.
Ben Sinclair himself plays the dope peddler, "The Guy," who rides around New York on his bicycle to deliver weed to those in need, some more desperate than others. Neither blistering heat nor freezing cold stops him from making his appointed rounds. He ties most of the strings together and gives the series the coherence it needs.
While marijuana isn't the theme, it's the glue that links the characters, the plots, the subplots and the divergent scenes that take place on the street, in an apartment, or a café. So far there are 16 episodes. The series has gotten better as it has gone along. The writers, the directors, the producers, and the actors seem to have gained in self-confidence and to have grown into their respective roles. As soon as they realized that they had an appreciative audience they became more inventive; marijuana as a kind of character its took on a more natural and relaxed role. Indeed, the trick of the series is that it takes marijuana for granted as the subtext, and at the same time pushes it in your face. The viewer can almost smell it and then it vanishes suddenly.
The brevity of the episodes is both strength and weakness. Making them longer might undermine the genius of the show and yet making them longer would allow the writers, directors and producers to delve more deeply into the lives of the characters. Still, they manage to make the characters more than one-dimensional and with a great deal of economy. In this case less really is more.
For those who grew up on Cheech and Chong and who enjoy pot comedy, "High Maintenance" ought to be a treat. Viewers can go on line to Vimeo (www.vimeo.com) and rent individual episodes or the whole series. Watch out. They can be addicting. New York takes on a new, strange and wonderful identity. "High Maintenance" provides an escape into a place that feels real and surreal, as real and as surreal as the Emerald Triangle.

National Reading Week was celebrated at the elementary school last week with various activities. Friday was "costume day" where the students and staff dressed as book characters. There were many princesses, Harry Potter's, Fancy Nancy's, Things # 1 & 2 and others. But, I saw only one King Bidgood from the cute children's book, "King Bidgood's in the Bathtub." It is a story about a king who would not get out of the bathtub and had many exciting adventures while there including a battle, lunch with the queen, fishing and more. Therefore, the reason for the bath towel as part of the costume. I concluded if an 8 year old boy was to wear a bath towel to school, I was sending the darkest colored one I could find in the linen closet!
What a precious story! And doesn't he look dapper, ready for his day.
I'll have to look that story up! It sounds fantastic, and I must say he does indeed make a very dapper King!

2 "Truly I know that it is so, But how can man be just with God?
3 If he is pleased to contend with him, He can't answer him one time in a thousand.
4 God who is wise in heart, and mighty in strength: Who has hardened himself against him, and prospered?
10 Who does great things past finding out, Yes, marvelous things without number.
11 Behold, he goes by me, and I don't see him. He passes on also, but I don't perceive him.
13 "God will not withdraw his anger; The helpers of Rachav stoop under him.
14 How much less shall I answer him, Choose my words to argue with him?
15 Whom, though I were righteous, yet would I not answer. I would make supplication to my judge.
16 If I had called, and he had answered me, Yet would I not believe that he listened to my voice.
17 For he breaks me with a tempest, Multiplies my wounds without cause.
18 He will not allow me to take my breath, But fills me with bitterness.
20 Though I am righteous, my own mouth shall condemn me. Though I am blameless, it shall prove me perverse.
21 I am blameless. I don't regard myself. I despise my life.
22 "It is all the same. Therefore I say, He destroys the blameless and the wicked.
23 If the scourge kills suddenly, He will mock at the trial of the innocent.
24 The eretz is given into the hand of the wicked. He covers the faces of the judges of it. If not he, then who is it?
26 They have passed away as the swift ships, As the eagle that swoops on the prey.
28 I am afraid of all my sorrows, I know that you will not hold me innocent.
29 I shall be condemned; Why then do I labor in vain?
31 Yet you will plunge me in the ditch. My own clothes shall abhor me.
32 For he is not a man, as I am, that I should answer him, That we should come together in judgment.
33 There is no umpire between us, That might lay his hand on us both.
35 Then I would speak, and not fear him, For I am not so in myself.

I thought of life's many bounties, to have known the extremities of joy and sorrow, love, crossed love and unrequited love, success and failure, fame and slaughter, to have read in the newspapers that as a writer I was past my sell-by date, yet regardless, to go on writing and reading, to be lucky enough to live in these two intensities that have buttressed my whole life.Born in Ireland in 1930 and driven into exile after publication of her controversial first novel, The Country Girls, O'Brien has created a body of work which bears comparison with the very best writers of the twentieth century. In Country Girl we come face to face with literary life of high drama and contemplation. And along the way there are encounters with Hollywood giants, pop stars and literary titans -- all of whom lend this life, so gorgeously, sometimes painfully remembered here, a terrible poignancy. In prose which sparkles with the effortless gifts of a master in her ninth decade, Edna O'Brien has recast her life with the imaginitive insight of a poet. It is a book of unfathomable depths and honesty.


The 2019 BMW 550I will get a new exterior colour, Satin Metal Grey Metallic. Moreover, hatchback models are actually obtainable with the diesel engine. The 2019 BMW 550I received a 5-star total security ranking from the NHTSA (out of a potential 5 stars). In IIHS evaluations, the 2019 BMW 550I Release Date, Price and Review has only been examined in side and average front overlap impression checks the place it acquired a Good ranking (Good is the very best attainable rating). It also received a Basic ranking on the IIHS' front crash prevention test for having an accessible forward collision warning system (Superior is the highest score for the entrance crash prevention check).
This is the story of the brand new 2019 BMW 550I, actually. It's full of options and demonstrates a classy mechanical prowess, but it surely's particular about things. It's clinical and exact, in some methods to a fault, but balanced with obvious worth and options. Like the hit man, the 2019 BMW 550I isn't any nonsense up front, however there's an underlying heat and need to please once you get to understand it.

What kind of scenes in a horror film scares you the most?When a ghost appears totally unexpectedly? When the main character does not see the ghost lurking up behind him? When at the very end you find out that the main character was actually a ghost all along?None of this compares to the feeling of arriving home alone and suddenly being struck by a feeling of deja vu that you are reenacting the very same scenes in the horror movie you just saw!This movie will scare you from the second you step inside the movie theatre. It will get you wondering if "something" or "someone" might be waiting for you to let your guard down.The horror movie that you just saw is about to happen to you in real life!
I give 3 out of 5. The movie reminds me of Hansel and Gretel. Extra points as I find thai films more enjoyable than korean/american horror films. Not to be mixed with Japanese films, their exploitation films are far more sickening, the movie "The Devil's Experiment" comes into mind immediately as I'm writing this. Google/Wiki it up if you're curious.
Frankly I would recommend this movie only if you have no other movies to watch or you have never really watched thai-horror films before. Then again, there are scarier thai-horror movies out there, 4bia or Shutter for example.

Healing Blood Vessels
A biotech startup is testing a gel that could make cardiovascular procedures safer.
Corinna Wu archive page
Each year, more than a million patients have their blocked coronary arteries opened with balloon angioplasty, making it one of the most common medical procedures performed in the United States. The majority of these patients also have a drug-eluting stent put in at the time of the procedure. These stents are tiny, wire-mesh tubes that not only physically prop open the blood vessel but are coated with drugs that prevent the artery from narrowing again–a problem called restenosis. But recent studies have questioned the effectiveness and long-term safety of these stents, suggesting that they might lead to fatal blood clots in certain patients.
Soothing gel: A gel containing endothelial cells is wrapped around a blood vessel to prevent damage. The cells release biochemical factors that prevent scarring and the narrowing of the vessel from procedures like balloon angioplasty.
Now, a company called Pervasis Therapeutics, based in Cambridge, MA, is testing a technology to prevent restenosis without the need for a stent. The product is designed to be wrapped around the artery at the site of the procedure and to release biochemical factors to promote the healing of the vessel's inner lining, or endothelium.
"The blood-vessel wall is a complicated structure," says Elazer Edelman, director of the Harvard-MIT Biomedical Engineering Center and cofounder of Pervasis. When the endothelium is damaged, it leads to a condition called intimal hyperplasia–an abnormal growth of smooth muscle cells. The vessel walls then scar and thicken, leading to restenosis.
The Pervasis product contains endothelial cells grown from culture. The factors released by the cells "send the signal that the endothelium is okay, that it's in control," says Pervasis CEO Steve Bollinger. It gives the endothelium time to heal itself. The gel biodegrades after 30 to 60 days.
While the technology has been tested in cardiovascular patients, it could have applications in several other conditions, says Bollinger. "It's a mistake to say it's just a 'stentless stent,'" he says.
For example, the technology is being tested in patients undergoing kidney dialysis, which involves removing blood through an artery, filtering it through a machine, and then returning it through a vein. In order to get high blood flows, surgeons often make an access point by connecting an artery directly to a vein, creating a so-called arteriovenous fistula. The vessels can also be connected with a plastic tube, or shunt.
However, the surgical trauma can damage the endothelium and cause intimal hyperplasia. Patients with shunts are particularly vulnerable to the problem. As a result, blockages often form where the grafts attach to the vein after just a few months. "The biggest cause of hospital admissions for patients with end-stage renal disease is the issue of access," says Alejandro Alvarez, an interventional nephrologist at Saint Louis University. Expecting technologies like Pervasis's gel "to make fistulas last 20 years is unreasonable," he says. "But if you can delay admission by six months in the majority of patients, that is a huge savings."
For cardiovascular patients, Bollinger says that the gel could "potentially work hand in hand with a stent or without a stent."

During this event, players will have a single week (real life) to hammer-out their votes. Players may even speak to each other in private to work-out deals and trades in exchange for votes.
Voting occurs in two steps:
1) Select the Articles.
2) Enact or Decline the Articles.
During Step 1: Select the Articles, everyone will receive two votes (one for each living leader), with which to select WHICH articles will be part of step two. Votes may only be cast 'FOR' a particular article.
During Step 2: Enact or Decline the Articles, everyone will receive a number of votes equal to the number of living leaders multiplied by the number of Usurpers still in play. (thus, if there are four players, each would receive 8 votes provided that they still have their leaders.) Then, players will receive a single bonus vote if they are leading in at least one victory point category (no more than a single bonus vote can be earned this way.)
http://wiki.rpol.net/?id=66962/Council
All players are expected to participate in the Council discussion and voting process. Failure to do so means inability to apply your will to the council voting. If you don't vote - you don't get to whine.

Arbiter
NPC, 0 posts
Tue 11 Oct 2016
A summons had been made. You knew better than to trifle with the strange personage that was the Arbiter. It was clear that it was he who had ushered you into your current circumstances. Whether you had initiated the departure from your previous life or not - it was the Arbiter who had ensured your arrive to these parts.
An ominous voice is heard, sitting at the large, round table. Taking his seat, you see the Arbiter; the so-called neutral party. Each of you takes your seat, taking a moment to take stock of the representatives set before you. Working with others was no easy thing for anyone; but, a small amount of cooperation would be needed if the antiquated and languishing civilizations were to be crushed and removed in your own life times.
The dry, cracking voice uttered, "Well, well. Of the seven that began in these lands, five remain. seven would-be rulers of the region, and five now take seats." Seeing the eight chairs, four which now sat empty, you take the chill of the meaning, "Whether by crow, crook, famine or failed feet: each has fallen to a different ailment. What will you five do to ensure your names continue forward?"
Pausing to gesture to the two previous speakers, "Now that the representatives are in their seats, what shall you convey? Will you quake fear into the land? Will you shine brightly, drawing those to your benevolence? How shall the old Tyrants be deposed and their images be carved anew unto your own?"
Stage 1 Votes:
Lieutenant Colonel Rajesh Singh 2
Chastity Cinsum-Felmar 2
Ruree Malachite 2
Harold 2
Jakob Algrove 2
Lieutenant Colonel Rajesh Singh 11
Chastity Cinsum-Felmar 11

"Look who the cat dragged in. If it isn't Rajesh! How have you been!"
He makes sure that Rajesh can see he doesn't have a dagger and he gives the LTC a handshake.
He will shake the other's hand, but he has only heard rumors of them until now so they do not get the interesting verbal greeting.
Ruree Malachite
The young, green-scaled lizardwoman has a strong handshake, and returns the silence with a quick nod.
Something is stuffed in a pocket, then she too will shake hands with whoever else is convenient before taking her seat.
In her seat, a piece of paper is pulled out of her pocket.
She reads it, looks to Harold, and does a shrug and a shake of her head - quite casually and without subtlety.
When she speaks, it's slowly and in a thick accent (or possibly dialect, depending on which side of the national boarders she's from) that sounds about how you'd imagine someone would sound if their culture had a habit of chewing gravel.
"Images carved unto ours... You think it foreseen that we will be Tyrants?" The question seems posed to the Arbiter, but she looks around at the reactions of the other usurpers anyway.
"All those who rule are tyrants to some, gods to some, and benevolent givers to others. The nature and visage of a ruler is only told from the beholder and morphs with time. Such is the way of all things. The mighty dragon is little more than a sleeping serpent to five generations, and a devastating calamity to one." Pausing to look out on the gathering as they greeted one another and took their seats, "Is any group more right than another? For you, it is a matter of might and will."

Chastity Cinsum-Felmar
"We are right", offered the Lady Cinsum-Felmar as she strode to her seat. She sat languidly and propped one foot atop the other resting on the edge of the table - trous and long tunic making the gesture less immodest than feared
"Besides", she continued, "Someone has to do something about the current bloody lot"
Jakob Algrove
Jakob shook hands with any who seemed friendly, took no visible offense at any who did not so seem, and sat in his own appointed chair, his attire and attitude neither overly concerned nor utterly ambivalent.
"Yes, something must be done, but what? Some might say that we should seek to enslave them. Others might say we should kill them all, or may we should use them to overthrow their own Lords. Mayhap all are right. Or maybe none hold the answer to guide us.
Jakob shrugs, a quick rising and falling of his shoulders. "I don't know the ultimate answer at this time. Perhaps it is one of those I just mentioned...perhaps not. I wonder though...if what we do here, what we decide here, might not help star our course to whatever end we judge appropriate. Or will we? Is it possible that we here will reach an accord?"
So saying, Jakob sat back, and pulled out a small package, opened it, and began to eat small dainty chocolates. He ate them slowly and with great relish though he offered the package to those who sat on either side of him, a clear offering to share his delicacy.
This message was lightly edited by the GM at 20:24, Tue 11 Oct 2016.
The lizard shakes her head, the scales along her muzzle wrinkling as the muscles under tense in some expression of distaste or frustration.
"You are right that there will always be conflict, and perhaps we just don't agree on what makes a tyrant," she keeps her tone steady and her head pointed down at the table, but there's still a hint of frustration in her voice, "But there is a difference from Strangers," the last word has some emphasis, "Who end up standing against us because their goals are different, just as wolves are no friends of sheep. And a Tyrant that hurts their own people."
Her head is raised back up, and she tries to meet the arbiter's eyes with confidence, "I am part of my people, not their master or owner. If someone under me does not wish our people to flourish, or does not trust me to lead, they do not belong with us. I do not intend to lead anyone by force or fear."
NPC, 1 post
Inhaling slowly and deeply, the Arbiter presses gloved fingers into the table as he leans-in to speak, "It is all well and good to discuss the morals of leadership, but, the time is nigh to make decisions. Cast your votes and decide how the collective will influence the land."
Use Private message to indicate which articles you would like to see enacted.
msg #10
Jakob nodded at the words of large lizard, a thoughtful expression upon his face. He nodded and spoke up.
"A leader should indeed look out for the interests of his, or her, people."
So saying, Jakob quickly wrote out several missives, some that were sent to others within the council chamber, some that stayed at his own place at the table.
When all the missives had been sent, Jakob leaned back and sighed. His votes were cast, his efforts would either pay dividends...or they wouldn't. Simple as that.
Sun 16 Oct 2016
The lizard chief, because clearly it really was the chief herself given the last outburst (or someone pretending to be her, but that is a different issue), stares down at the table in front of her for a while (and its various writing and/or voting tools) - she's likely not alone, unless there is no one else who feels the need to think (or pretend to think) on the votes.
Then she looks up, "I will mostly wait to argue for or against ideas until the ideas have been chosen - too many, otherwise. But, I think the most fortune now is in voting on ideas for the long-term and for growth. Especially if we ever want to help the lesser towns; Little point, if we wait until they no longer have room to grow."
When she gets the 'missive' she reads through it with a fairly casual expression.
Then she puts it down, the words hidden against the table, and nods in Jakob's direction.
She writes something as well, and has it sent back.
After she's finished whatever means are used for voting, likely involving writing, she leans back in her seat and waits.
Yawning the young noblewoman takes out a small bag of carved wooden tokens and gently tosses two across the table to the Arbiter before chucking the bag back onto the table. Three tokens spill out, one spinning for a time before it finally clatters to a halt face up: upon it's face is a wide spreading tree - Gaia's Blessing
GM, 485 posts
The Arbiter's hand reached-out slowly once more to gather the tokens and scrips of paper laid before him. His right lifted a quill from the inky blackness to his side and began to tally on a board. The movements impossibly slow, you all waited as the low scratching against the wooden tablet took the place of conversation in the room.
"A consensus has been reached, deliberations to shift the land have begun."
The Articles to be voted-upon are:
Bountiful Land,
Repurposed housing, and
Artisan Caste.
Further discussions can be had, however; for this week - we are now in stage two. You now vote with the votes below on FOR or AGAINST these articles. You have the listed total votes to cast - so choose wisely.
Lizard-Chief Malachite leans forward and studies the three changes proposed.
"All should favor all evenly," she says in her slow and rough way, "especially the first two. I would ask that no one votes against them; If you have no interest, spend the votes elsewhere. Remember: We have common enemies not present at these meetings, so our odds improve even if we keep the balance among ourselves."
"The priority seems Re-purposed Housing. I said before it needs to be done now to be useful."
Jakob listens to first the Arbiter, then to the commander of the lizard-folk. He nodded slowly, listening to the words that she spoke.
"Perhaps you are right, though, speaking for myself, I have seen little need for this development. I have found several settlements, and most seem to be small, but that also offers opportunities, I think. Tell me please, why I should vote for repurposed housing?"
Jakob let a bit of his doubt be expressed in his voice, but he was also willing to be swayed.
Leaning forward - a touch - to listen to the debate, the Lady Chastity places a handful of markers in a pouch and places it on the table in front of her. It is clear she has her votes in mind, but is not adverse to being convinced of another path
Thu 20 Oct 2016
"All interesting, but not all useful it would seem."
Ruree lifts her shoulders and the end of her tail in a shrug. The tail tumps against the floor when it falls back down, "Again, it's mainly that if it's to be done, it should be done now. And bigger settlements are less vulnerable to being eliminated by Lords who wish the land uncontested.
"You should vote for Re-purposed Housing, partially at the least, because there is little that needs your full support. The land is bountiful as it is, though it could be improved, and while artists and skilled designers are good things they are not vital. Some support, at least, in case some did not believe me."
She writes on some slips of paper and folds them twice, but she doesn't hand them over to the Arbiter quite yet.
When it doesn't seem like anyone's got any good arguments left, she hands them over.
This message was last edited by the player at 22:30, Fri 21 Oct 2016.
Jakob nodded, even slower this time.
"True, but then the same thing would still apply to the repurposed housing. They already have housing. You're objection to the land being already bountiful, and artisans, which are important to any settlement of any size that wishes to continue to function, could also be applied to the villages. They already have housing.
That said...there could be something to what you're saying. Making it harder to simply destroy a settlement could be beneficial, though it might also mean that the settlements refuse to do business, or charge greater amounts to those of us who are not their own lieges. However...I will give it a chance. I will not say that I will support it fully, but I will give it a chance."
With a wry smile Chastity tossed her pouch of markers to land in front of the Arbiter
Noting the others casting their votes, Jakob does likewise, making a quick change to one of the slips of paper in front of him.
This message was last edited by the player at 16:51, Sat 22 Oct 2016.
Well it seems it is time to vote.
He throws his in.
Tabulating scrips of paper and the various tokens assembled in a small pile before him, the Arbiter moves each slowly from his right to left. Each bursts into a small flame and disappears.
"Well now, it seems we have reached a consensus. How good of our young lords and ladies to be. No word from you, eh, Lieutenant Colonel Rajesh? So be it."
Totals (Net):
Bountiful Land: 27 - Passed
Repurposed Housing: -5 - Failed
Artisan Caste: 7 - Passed
"And so it begins... Agents will speed their way through the land to steadily bend it to your will. Be warned - such power is not without its price; should you grow too strong: you will be found out by the current rulers."
Bountiful Land is Enacted.
[Caches are always found at one-category larger than the success threshold indicates. (If at max, then: +4 gold value.)]
Artisan Caste is Enacted.
[When exploring, the chances of finding an Extra is weighted by 1. Additionally, the chances of that Extra having the "Artisan" or "Mason" trait is weighted by 1.]

James Moore at the Industry, Science and Technology Committee
On May 26th, 2015. See this statement in context.
May 26th, 2015 / 12:15 p.m.
James Moore Conservative Port Moody—Westwood—Port Coquitlam, BC
Digital Canada 150 has 39 specific commitments for the Government of Canada to follow through on, and those 39 commitments are spread over five pillars. The first of the pillars is connecting Canadians, which includes rural broadband connectivity and the wireless sector, making sure that we're properly connected, but it also includes some other programs that have received new funding in this year's budget, such as the computers for schools program, which is an important program.
In the Government of Canada and government agencies and other levels of government, we use and replace computers at a rapid pace. But very often, computers that seem to be out of date in 2015, that were purchased in 2013, are perfectly adequate for non-profit organizations, for students who are doing basic research, for word processing for seniors, and so on. So with the computers for schools program, for example, we take computers from the Government of Canada and refurbish them with the help of students, usually high school students who are planning to go on to a technical college or to get into this field. We give them an opportunity to learn how to refurbish computers and get them stood up, and to make sure that they're virus-free and properly operational.
So we get a win out of that. Then we take those computers and we give them to aboriginal communities that don't have the resources, schools that need upgrades in computers or are expanding computer terminals. Furthermore, in this year's budget, we're extending that to a number of non-profit organizations such as the Neil Squire Society and others who need specific computers for people who have a particular kind of disability.
So connecting Canadians, that first of the five pillars, is about a lot things. It's about rural broadband and spectrum auction policy, connectivity, and competition on the wireless side, but it's also about some of that basic infrastructure for communities.
We also have the digital privacy act, which is part of it as well, because we want to make sure that the digital world is secure and protected online. We also support things like anti-cyberbullying initiatives through our policy.
The third pillar is the digital economy strategy that Minister Clement worked on when he was Minister of Industry, which tries to take full advantage of the economic opportunities.
The fourth of the five pillars is digital government. The government needs to walk its talk when it comes to accessibility, which is why we have the Open Data Institute and the open science commitment. We have an across-government effort to try to make everything more legible and easily accessible online for Canadians.
The fifth and final pillar to me is the most interesting and fun one. Once you've made connectivity a goal, once you've made it more secure, once you're taking advantage of the economic opportunities, and once the government is acting in a more digital way, then comes the fun stuff, the good stuff, which is telling stories to Canadians. This is a piece that came over from when I was Minister of Canadian Heritage. It's why we have Digital Canada 150. The year 2017 is our sesquicentennial, and a big part of the reason that Canada has been able to survive over 150 years of history through incredible challenges and divisions in the early days—east and west, and north and south, and French and English, and aboriginal and non-aboriginal, and Protestant and Catholic—is our respect for each other, our understanding of our shared history, our ability to tell stories, to be connected with one another.
So that fifth and final pillar is about a digital content effort to get all of our museums to have digital policy, to have more Canadian history minutes, to work with Historica Canada, to tell the stories of veterans, for example, online, and to share more of Canada's stories one to another.
Anyway, it's a long answer to a short question but it's a comprehensive policy.

The Hara's "The Fool & The Thief" Is A Frankenstein Of Pop, Rock, Punk, & Electro
Posted on August 20, 2021 in NEWS
There's a lot to digest
UK trio The Hara go mad with their latest single "The Fool & The Thief" where they throw all kinds of genres, do some mojo infusion, and turn it into a groovy sonic Frankenstein. At first you might think it's pop, but then the punchy punk hooks trimmed with an edgy swagger makes it a multi-dimensional treat to your eardrums. Hit play:
On the track, the band elaborate: "'Fool & The Thief' was born alongside [previous single] 'Black Soul Ceremony' in Barcelona late last year with our writing companion and good friend Brad Mair.
I seem to remember the process of this song starting with a Twenty One Pilots stylised drum beat that Jack wanted to try out and straight away Brad and I loved the groove so we started to craft a song around the drum beat. Our other motive at the time was to write a great 'pop' song and by pop, I mean it in the classic sense of a song, great melodies, structure and easy to remember lyrics without losing the crazy and theatrical edge that is The Hara."
They have tour coming up.
September 24 – Bodega, Nottingham
September 26 – The Mash House, Edinburgh
October 1 – The Globe, Cardiff
October 3 – Foundry, Sheffield
October 9 – o2 Academy3, Birmingham
October 10 – o2 Academy2 Islington, London
October 16 – Think Tank, Newcastle (SOLD OUT)
November 14 – King Tuts, Glasgow

As WSJ said, they are available when you purchase the "Wolfenstein 3d" package from Apogee, or Yahoo, or any other place that is selling the package. It comes with Wolfenstein 3d, Spear of Destiny, and both Mission Packs which have become known as the "Lost Episodes".
They were not lost, although as "themannwhoknows" said... You probably don't want them... Ie... They are not good.
As for asking for a place to download them... You are asking for members of the community to participate in "Pirating" software. That is against the rules of these forums.
So... As of this post... This thread has Ended. If you feel the need to find them, you might want to ask someone in a Private E-mail...
Go to the www.3drealms.com site... Go to Wolfenstein... and purchase... it comes with the "Lost Episodes"... as people call them... In actuality, they were two seperate add-on packs to Spear of Destiny. I'll post more information about this on the Diehard Homepage... Which is still under construction...

Is the guy who made the lost episodes still alive? Does he take credit for them? I'm just curious...I know the gang who did the original Wolf3D is still out and about, but does anyone care about the Lost Episodes guy?

Heh.. honestly I've got LE somewhere from the net... but I can't tell you because I don't remember where from
Yeah...I've finished them before too...they do kind of suck, but someone put some time into some of the art...for that alone I give them credit...(I'm not so sure about the bats, though...)

I've heard the LE sprites are good for novice sprite editors. I might just look into serious sprite editing.
My Wolf3D mods on ModDB
Not only for novices (WSJ games..)
They are nice, but the boss animations kind of blow...specifically Submarine Willie and Professor Quarkblitz...if you ever look at them closely in Flo Edit (or Wolfedit), they just look really distorted and strange during certain sequences...worst of all, I've found that Submarine Willie for example uses like five different shades of blue that all look EXACTLY alike, and some are used for only one pixel per frame...I don't know how the coloration was done, but it's a b**ch to redo with any real quality...unless of course the end result is
Even there, you'll notice (or maybe you won't) that I've done one color to replace three or four of theirs in several instances...it's just not worth the trouble to replace every pixel exactly. That having been said, though, the guard and enemy sprites are good for beginners...especially if they're beginners looking for flying bats with guns to edit...
Do you use old-but-good pix-by-pix method of colour replacing?
I do...basically, I lay out in a line the color that is originally in the image, one pixel at a time from lightest to darkest, then underneath that I do the same thing with the colors I wish to change to. As I find ones that are very similar, I just stick them under the color they are similar to, and they get replaced with the same shade being changed to. I think that's what you mean...
YES! After years I found someone that takes care and shows the incredible passion with artwork instead of using automatic PSP stuff! You are DA MAN!
Hey!! It's cool to find someone else does the same as I do...I always believed it, but never found anyone till now! The way I see it, hard work went into original design of the characters, so hard work is merited if you want to do a good job color changing. And once you've gone to the trouble of laying out your color changing "bars", the rest is fairly simple frame after frame...I've never used any other method!
Hu-uh... yeah.. but colouring guard sprites like that is hardwork so it's better to use PSP... btw, do you want to chat?
I would...but I'm at work at the moment...I just snuck in to check the posts during break...one of these days I'd like to though...
Oh yeah... just wait for the weekend.. it's not much . Man, I'm getting to school back soon so . . . you know the pain

Subject: Back to the origanal subject at hand
I remember being like you. Reading off B.J. Rowans' site (in an faq for making a mod) that there were two completely unpassed (by me) wolf3d games. I INSTANTLY ran a search in google and all it came up with was a mod from Mr. Lowes site that only mods the wolf3d demo. so, I searched the pages at angelfire.com and found a possible file (the search was a completely random thing on my behalf). so I downloaded it. I still don't know if it was the real thing but I can tell you it was enough. the blueness of it all and those weird backgrounds and bubbles(?!) can turn you from glad to "damn! i wasted 2 hours searching for this!!!???". Though, some of the graphics could be useful, allaround, a pretty (well, moderate) poor job on FormGen's behalf. I'd give it around 5.5 ot of 10. Might aswell make your own quality one. Anyway, that was my $0.02c. Post y'all later...
Sorry, I don't have absoluty certain about your question. But try to enter in www.google.com and search about the Lost Episodes. Good luck!
Um...yeah...blue is the theme of the Lost Episodes...even the guns are blue...I mean, who ever heard of blue guns before? They looked pretty good otherwise (KyleRTCW did a nice set of recolored versions of these guns that are gray instead of blue that's on the Image World site). Anyway, there's a lot of blues, ugly grays, and annoying intense reds and whites in the game. The color atmosphere definitely isn't the game's strong suit. Actually, I'm not sure what is...I mostly played for the new bosses and enemies, which are okay to look at for a while. Not worth shelling out more than like $10 for, and if you've played one set of the LE, you won't want to play the other unless you're super bored...

Any one know anything aboout Ultimate Challege's (Mssion 3) bosses and story. Don't tell me they are the same bosses cause RtD was horrible. I've tried Google but it seems that the LE are so bad that the farthest the info goes is RTD. And it is a horrible add-on itself. Maybe a modified .exe could have been used but hey, it was dumb work.
@Majik Monkee Yeah, some of the walls are very good.
The LE were designed before the source code was made available for editing, so I don't think a new exe would have been legal at the time. Sad to say, but Ultimate Challenge is all the same bosses and enemies as RtD, which is stupid, and was half the reason I disliked it. It was like, "Hey...I just killed you, didn't I?" My younger brother was working on an add on that was going to be essentially tUC, but with new bosses added in place of the ones they have, so it would be a "fresh challenge" if you'd already played RtD. It didn't look like there would be much demand for it at the time, though, so he put the project on hold...
Do you know where I could see some version of tUC story or info on it? Or maybe a site with info?
http://www1.linkclub.or.jp/~clubey/other%20platforms/pcwolf.html
http://www.geocities.com/SiliconValley/Bridge/4271/lostepisodes.html
Here's a couple of sites with some general info...the second one, though, has some links to even more sites with a little more in-depth information. As for the storyline, though, there's been an ongoing search for a copy or reproduction of the manual for the LE since I started visiting here, but thus far, no luck...hope this helps...
Hmmm...well, most of the links found on that second page don't work anymore, but the page itself does, so that's the main thing...
episodes two and three, i cant get them!

Dubai: Listing and Trading of Exchange-Traded Funds
Writer Bonnard Lawson
A cost-efficient alternative to mutual funds, exchange-traded funds (ETFs) have grown significantly in popularity around the world in recent years.
Like mutual funds, ETFs track assets including stocks, commodities, and bonds. However, the latter differ from the former in that they are listed on stock exchanges and charge minimal fees.
Negligible 20 years ago, ETFs' assets under management amount currently to some USD 3.7tn (ETFGI 2017), and are predicted to increase to USD 6tn by the end of 2020 (EY 2016). From humble beginnings, their impact on stock trading has now reached considerable proportions. Today, ETFs represent almost one-half of all trading in US stocks. Over the past 12 months, UDS 130.7bn has flowed out of all US mutual funds, while USD 240bn has poured into US ETFs (Morningstar 2017).
In order to participate in this global trend, the Dubai Financial Market (DFM) has recently finalised a favourable regulatory framework for the listing and trading of ETFs. Regulations for the trading of ETFs had been first approved by the UAE's Securities and Commodities Authority in 2009 but were little used given the depressed state of UAE stocks at the time. Pursuant to the new rules, trading in ETFs on the DFM is confined to market makers, authorised participants and liquidity providers.
In June 2016, Afkar Capital, an investment company, introduced the Afkar S&P UAE UCITS ETF, the first liquid, fully fungible, fully tradeable and transparent exchange-traded fund listed in the Middle East under the new regulations. Its ETF has been designed to replicate the S&P UAE BMI Liquid 20/35 Capped Index. This index comprises 10 of the country's largest stocks, spread across the DFM, Nasdaq Dubai and Abu Dhabi Securities Exchange. Etisalat, Emaar Properties, Dubai Islamic Bank and ADCB account for 50 per cent of the fund's weighting.
In March 2017, in line with its strategy to further diversify its product offering for both local and global investors, the DFM unveiled an ETF platform that provides integration and on-going support to the expanding ETF industry.
In the same month, Afkar Capital added Al Ramz Capital as new authorized participant and Cairo's Beltone Financial as foreign liquidity provider for its Afkar S&P UAE UCITS ETF. This step marked the first time a foreign market maker has been appointed as liquidity provider for a domestically listed fund in the Middle East.
According to Seif Fikry, Afkar Capital's CEO, since the its launch last summer, the ETF has benefited from a "strongly positive reception" not just in the Middle East, but also from the United Kingdom and the United States. "We are confident that our new partnership with Al Ramz Capital will further facilitate access to UAETF and expand the fund's reach to local and global investors, fund managers and institutions with appetite for the UAE market," he added.


A business needs proper marketing for it to gain clients and grow successful. Marketing should be a piece of cake nowadays since businesses can enjoy a number of marketing methods, these methods make it easier to achieve success in the trade. One of the best methods that are used for marketing is the establishment of a business website on the Internet and the use of content writing services.
Using the said service should be really beneficial, especially in increasing the company's online presence. There are a number of amazing benefits that a company can enjoy when it avails of the content writing services that a team of dedicated article writers offer. If you hire these dedicated article writers, here are the benefits that you should be able to expect from them.
First, you can expect them to give you high-quality content on a regular basis. This is their main responsibility as a team of professional article writers. With this one, there is emphasis on high-quality for content. The article writers can only be called professionals when they are capable of generating the high-quality content that a business needs for its marketing campaign.
There is the benefit of availing of greater accountability with this service as well. If you have found a team of dedicated article writers who have established themselves as the authority in the field of article writing, then you can rest assured when you avail of their services. They are going to be accountable for your marketing campaign needs.
There is also no need to bind yourself to a specific article writer when you are marketing online. You actually have a great selection of article writers. When you do not like the current article writer you have, you can request the content writing services to change him or her. It is even possible to change the service provider entirely too. You are in total control of who to fire and hire without costing a lot.
You do not have to personally worry about new writing ideas. When it comes to generating fresh high-quality content for a website, getting new ideas can be very challenging. If you want to do away with that kind of problem, then the dedicated article writers can take trouble some task away from you. You can leave generating new ideas for your content to them.
Saving more money is possible when you hire the said service. Since you do not have to hire new employees just to get the marketing campaign online done, you do not have to spend a lot of money for the application process as well as the new hire's training process. Know that you do not have to spend a lot to get this service. The service does not require extra money.
Personal branding is necessary for a business. This means that you have to establish your business as the authority in the trade. With the help of the content writing services, establishing personal branding should be a piece of cake. The article writers establish that by sharing expertise and wisdom on the trade with the target audience.
You can get a stream of reliable content when you have a team of dedicated article writers. For a successful online marketing campaign, now that reliability is extremely crucial. Having a team of dedicated article writers can produce the reliable content stream that you need for a continuously successful marketing campaign on the Internet.
These dedicated article writers can also help you engage your target audience on various social networking websites popular on the Internet. Posting relevant high-quality content that then links back to the business website is one of the ways on how they do it. Linking back to the website helps you earn the trust of the target audience too. Content writing services produce articles that encourage the audience to ask questions and interact with you.

An Insider's Guide To Melbourne
Words by Mr Joshua Bozin
Photograph courtesy of Mr. Miyagi
Where to eat, drink, run, watch sport and get groomed in the Australian city.
Melbourne, Australia. An eclectic city that is full of life and full of culture; buzzing with friendly vibes that galvanize you to join in and become one of the locals. Thanks to its excellent infrastructure, relative safety and fantastic educational resources (among other factors), it's been named the world's "Most Liveable City" by the Economist Intelligence Unit for a staggering six years in a row. Which makes it somewhat less than surprising that it's also a rather good location for familiarizing yourself with the latest trends in food, style, health and leisure.
Compared to other major cities around the world, Melbourne is relatively small. However, it's still easy to get lost in the big smoke of it all and miss out on the hidden gems only true Melbournians will know about. And so we've put together the below list – a curated selection of the best things to do, see and eat in Melbourne. Don't hop on the plane without it.

THE BEST BRUNCH

Patch Cafe
Brunch is a veritable pastime for Melbournians – in fact, many locals will claim their city pioneered the concept. Consequently, in this department, the city offers a variety of different cuisines and inspiration from all over the globe. Among the most interesting is Patch Cafe, a paleo-inspired hot spot which foregoes the sometimes greasy brunch fare in favour of health-conscious dishes such as sweet potato and salmon cakes, cauliflower toast and breakfast veggie burgers with "avodaise" and cashew feta, as well as modified takes on all your favourite recipes. If that all sounds a bit LA, be reassured by the fact that you can order a "caveman steak" to go on the side of anything.
Try this: the showstopper, which consists of pumpkin, banana and coconut-flour waffles served with paleo ice cream, crumble and seasonal fruit.
THE BEST COCKTAIL BAR

Hip rooftop bar Siglo might look like a French brasserie, but it's got a friendly all-week buzz that's characteristic of Melbourne's charm, as well as a spectacular view over St Patrick's Cathedral and Parliament house. Its cocktail menu, overseen by bar manager Mr Rene Schaeffer, is constantly changing (this September, the focus is on barrel-aged concoctions made with Carpano Antica Formula, a red Italian vermouth) and boasts ingredients you won't find anywhere else, such as house-made bitters and syrups. The open-air bar also has in-house humidor for those who enjoy a cigar or two.
Try this: a Siglo classic, available all year round, the Rusty Nail cocktail is a mix of Drambuie and scotch whisky with a lemon twist.
THE BEST DINNER

Located on the hustle and bustle of Melbourne's famous Chapel Street, Mr. Miyagi offers delicious, finger-licking fusion food that mixes classic Japanese dishes with American and Western influences – think wagyu bolognaise with ramen gnocchi, prawn hot dogs and tuna tataki pizza – and serves it up with its tongue firmly in cheek. Great for a date or just a friendly dinner out on the town, it's marvellous eatery, but also boasts an exceptional cocktail bar. Best to arrive early as it is a first-come, first-served affair.
Try this: The Nori taco and Miyagi fried chicken – both show-stopping examples of the non-sequitur fusion cuisine that Mr Miyagi is all about.
THE BEST WORKOUT

The Tan Track
If you're the type that likes to exercise on holiday, the Tan – a picturesque 3.8km track around King's Domain and the Botanic Gardens – is a must do when visiting Melbourne. Perfect for walking or jogging, with or without company, it offers plenty of shady greenery and along one stretch, a great view across the Yarra river.
Try this: Reward yourself for all the exertion with brunch (yes, again) at neighbouring café Two Birds One Stone in South Yarra – the brioche French toast with macadamia nut praline is particularly good.
THE BEST DAY OUT

The Melbourne Cricket Ground
Australian Rules Football (otherwise known as the Australian Football League) is the iconic sport that IS Australia (not rugby, in case you were wondering), and the the game most Melbournians love to watch (and fiercely follow) the most. The best time to go to a game is during finals season in September where the two best teams from the earlier stages will play off in front of more than 100,000 spectators at the Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG). If you want the best view, get a seat on level two. But note that level one has the best atmosphere.
Try this: a meat pie and beer at half time. It's an Aussie must.
THE BEST HAIRCUT

Men's salon Morris Motley is not only a pleasant looking space, housed as it is in a minimalist, warehouse-style building, but a good place to come to get a proper haircut. Owner Mr Rob Mason is particularly keen on analysing each customer's facial structure in his 60-minute appointments, meaning that you're likely to walk out with a style that suits you, rather than some random thing plucked out of a magazine. His range of in-house hair products is rather nice, too.
Try this: booking in advance, possibly even before you arrive in Melbourne. Unfortunately the waiting list is on the long side.

Q: Play gif once on click and change back I have an HTML file with a gif of rain and a button that triggers an audio that sounds like thunder. I have a thunder.gif that i would like to play once when the thunder audio is triggered by the button, and then return to the original rain gif.
Right now i have a startAudio() function that creates the audio and one playGif() function where this is the only content
document.getElementById("theImage").src="thunder.gif";

These are both put in a third function called playThunder() which is called once the button is pressed. However, I don't know how to go back to rain.gif which used to be "theImage" once the thunder.gif is finished playing. I only want the gif to play once and then replace the content of "theImage" with rain.gif again. If I make the function
 function thunderGif(){
  document.getElementById("theImage").src="thunder.gif";
  document.getElementById("theImage").src="rain.gif";
}

So it will iterate through thunder.gif and then play rain.gif after, it just overrides and doesn't play thunder.gif at all for some reason

A: Use something like  setTimeout to properly time the src changes based on gif animation length
So you can schedule the src change and avoid the immediate src change in your current thunderGif(). Try
function thunderGif(){
  document.getElementById("theImage").src="thunder.gif";
  setTimeout(function(){ document.getElementById("theImage").src="rain.gif"; }, 3000);
  //assuming thunder.gif animation length is 3 seconds
}

A: Here's an unorthodox use of a <video> tag:
HTML

*

*Assign the url of MP3 file to [src] (video tags have no problem playing audio files)

*Assign the url of rain GIF to [poster]
JavaScript
See comments in Demo

Demo

/*
- Reference and register click event to <video>
- Click on <video> to call event handler function storm()
*/
document.querySelector('video').onclick = storm;

// Event handler always passes Event Object (event)
function storm(event) {
  // Reference the tag user clicked
  const clicked = event.target;
  // Define both GIFs
  const rain = 'https://media.giphy.com/media/Wmp1EOzVybWd13s5DB/giphy.gif';
  const lightning = 'https://media.giphy.com/media/3otPoT1atQUL9KIta0/giphy.gif';

  // Play MP3 file
  clicked.play();
  // Change the [poster] from rain to lightning GIF
  clicked.poster = lightning;
  /*
  - Change the [poster] from lightning to rain GIF after
    5 seconds which is the time duration of the MP3
  */
  setTimeout(function() {
    clicked.poster = rain;
  }, 5000);
}
video {
  display: block;
  width: 320px;

DuckTales is a video game based on the Disney animated TV series of the same name. It was first released in the United States for the Nintendo Entertainment System by Capcom in 1989. In this game, Scrooge McDuck travels around the world collecting treasures to become the world's richest duck. The game was also ported to Game Boy. This game is unrelated to DuckTales: The Quest for Gold, which was released on a variety of personal computers in the early 1990s.
DuckTales is often a subject of NES-related nostalgia and was generally popular. The game provides a good example of the work produced by Capcom in the late 1980s and early 1990s, along with such titles as those in the Mega Man franchise; both shared key personnel such as Tokuro Fujiwara, Keiji Inafune and Yoshihiro Sakaguchi. DuckTales has much in common with the Mega Man games: bright and colorful graphics, tight play control with unique gameplay dynamics (such as using Scrooge's cane as a weapon, tool, and pogo stick), and non-linear gameplay.
