When our group tested Nidzilla for 5th edition one variant we toyed with was the Unholy Choir. When I posted our findings, I never brought up the possibility of using the Choir list but instead just analyzed the standard Nidzilla based on our test results. This seems an injustice to an army that has significant potential in 5th edition.
The Unholy Choir is not new to 5th edition. Pinning and reduced LD was always a viable tactic. Zoanthropes and MCS could not run in 4th edition and getting your Psychic Screams within 18" of the enemy you could take four plus turns. Also synapse and warp blast were very popular additions to Zoanthropes as well leaving no room for the extra psychic power. In 5th the list is better. Additionally, a walking Hive Tyrant is a much better HQ choice in 5th edition so we can eassily fit in extra Screams.
There was and is a feeling that too many fearless squads could neuter the effect. Zoanthropes are costly for what they do. They are erratic at shooting and some enemies easily win combat against a Carnifex making the negative Ld useless.
You can fit up to five Psychic Screams in a list – two on your Tyrants and three on your Zoanthropes. Their effects are cumulative. Three Zoanthropes and two Tyrants would give a combined -5 to any leadership test within 18 inches.
The key to the Unholy Choir is to keep a nice overlapping field of effect for all your Screaming models and to get as many pinning weapons as possible into the list.
The walking tyrant and guard works best in a dedicated choir list, and those in existing armies that already have the models do not need to replace them. They have not lost any potency. No one is going to attack a Tyrant with two guards sporting lash whips. Horror becomes so much better too.
The effects of Psychic Scream on an enemy psychic unit that wants to use a power is enhanced by Shadow in the Warp. If a Chaos Lord wants to try to cast his power and he is near your Choir and a Hive Tyrant that has Shadow of the Warp, he would roll 3d6 drop the lowest(shadow of the warp) and then compare it to his LD. Hopefully, with Shadow in the Warp on your Tyrant, you should be able to keep twin LoS chaos forces at bay.
Field zoanthropes in a very offensive role. Just start by running and then walk up and blast anything within range. Run the first two turns if need be to get into range. Fit them with Warp Blast and Psychic Scream. By turn three they will begin to own the board. Zoanthropes are vulnerable to instant death if out of synapse.
Give one synapse to remedy this. Warp Blast is great but sometimes synapse is better. Warp Blast relies on both an Ld check and a BS check. It's also prone to anti-psycher rules such as the psychic hood and runes of warding. Take Shadow in the Warp to alleviate this problem.
The combination of moving Zoanthropes behind your Tyrants with Horror and keeping each Zoanthrope in range of the other makes a very good delaying tactic to increase your chances of a charge or denying a charge. If the enemy attempts to charge the Tyrants, fail the morale check and can't assault that turn it leaves them open to either dakka or your assault.
Sniperfexes and Boomfexes are both very good choices for the choir. Get any other Barbed Stranglers you want on your Tyrant. Pinning is a key component of this list. Mobile armies can be a problem. They will try to stay out of that 18" zone and shoot so pen them in by advancing along a front. Skimmers and flyers are priority targets. A few Carnifexes and a few Warp Blasts will help.
Set up as far forward as possible, advance and shoot every turn and take first turn if possible. The reduction in leadership will make it difficult for an opponet to target what he needs to hit. With this strategy Spinegaunt can soak up wounds and bounce off targets and give you a 4+ save.
Stay away from the table edges. Outflanking squads are good against this list. Screen your MCs with gaunts. Deep strikers will also pose a threat. Just weather the first assault be it H2H or shooting and realign your force to deal with the intruders. The more squads left in reserve, the easier it is to pick apart his force early. Deep striking and outflanking have inherent risks that you can use to your advantage with good deployment and solid tactics.
Most Choir lists rely on Warp Blasts, Venom Cannon and MCs for their AT needs. Sniperfexes fit this role well. Godzilla lists put out a high rate of fire. The Choir just makes those shots count more forcing numerous tests at a low LD.
You need troops. Commonly WON gaunts are used as they are not as susceptible to synapse problems. Take your LD test on the last turn or move a Synapse unit into range when they come from reserve. Move them onto the board on your second last turn if possible Use them as a first wave to bounce off tanks and troops and then bring them back to take objectives in your deployment zone. Troops are not targeted in Choir lists. Without Number is very worthwhile on gaunt broods to ensure survivability.
Remember in 5th edition you want to keep the Choir close to your Genestealers, and then engage in close combat. If you beat your opponent they will have to take a leadership check at their base leadership, minus the amount of wounds they lost by, minus the number of choir models in range. Genestealers are the best cc squad we have in these lists.
Forcing fall back checks for units adjacent or behind falling back units makes the Unholy Choir nasty.
Barbed Strangler shots will pin more often and with the new rules for blasts are really quite powerful. This makes them a weapon of choice with Psychic Scream.
If you have read this far here is a breakdown of your choices.
HQ: You want at least one Hive Tyrant with psychic scream. It could be a walking Tyrant or a flying Tyrant but with the list as setup a Flyrant will be well ahead of the main body of troops. A second HQ choice is not mandatory but I like to fit Shadow in the Warp into these lists. A Broodlord with retinue is nice but there is no room in Zilla lists.
Elite: Again in a larger list (1500 +) either shooty Warriors with one Barbed Strangler or Elite Dakkafexes or Boomfexes fit in nicely. Both weill provide a little more dakka to the list. However if a Carnifex is chosen the additional MC will prove useful.
Troops: I like Spinegaunts and Genestealers here. I prefer WON on my gaunts, something I would not use in a standard list, but Termagaunts or Hormagaunts could work. I use Feeder Tendrils on my Stealers and talons for the extra attack but again they could be scuttling and flesh hooks if that is your preference.
Heavy: No debate here. Zoanthropes are mandatory. Then decide between Boomfexes and Sniperfexes depending on the point level.
The sweet spot for Unholy Choirs is the 1250 – 1500 point range. At 1500 points you will be able to fit in up to three Elite Carnifexes to boost your effectiveness but at 1250 points you can still field a potent force. The list below has not been fully tested. We played a similar list when we were testing Nidzilla and I've based this list off those results. I will be taking this list to a tournament soon where I expect to face some very competent opponents. I'll modify the post next Sunday with my won/loss record.
This list has four Psychic Screams and one Tyrant is given Shadow in the Warp which has proved to be a nice addition to the Unholy Choir and works well even on its own making it much more difficult for the opponent to caste psychic powers. With the possibility of seeing a Lash in every other chaos list it becomes even more attractive and it prevents wounds from Perils of the Warp (check Faqs) even your own.
We know that 5th edition is about troops holding objectives. WoN may not be the best upgrade to squads in a swarm list but in lists short on synapse and troops it becomes one of the better additions. You can hold your gaunts back in reserve and then rush to an objective or you can push them in front of your moving wall and bounce them off tanks and squads knowing that that will come back.
AT is handled by MCs, Venom Cannons and your Warp Blasts. Although none of these options are fully reliable a combination of the three is effective. The Barbed Stranglers can try to take down lighter armour or elite squads and are your primary pinning weapons. We use four pie plates in the list. One or two is overly random with scatter.
I would have liked +1 I on both Carnifexes to get those PFs and PKs first but I could only fit one in. This was aweakness we discovered that needed to be addressed. The abiltity to throw a Mace Tail, +1 I Fex with five attacks on the charge at a small elite unit with PKs or PFs was required.
This list is an example of the sweet spot list for the Choir.
This is almost your standard Nidzilla list and any extra biomorphs are dropped for maximum damage. It's better to give them what they "need" ( gunfex with VC+BS+ES, all they need) and use those other points on more units. At 1250 points more biomorphs were used only to give the list added punch. It's an exception to the general rule. At 1500 points we need extra MCs and less biomorphs. The extra three MCs compensate for more initiative or a better save. We also have more AT in the extra VC. I would use this as a template. You could add Devourers exchange a Boomfex for a Dakkafex or add Barbed Stranglers to your Hive Tyrants. In this list the gaunts are coming in from reserve as they are not needed to screen as much but again WON gaunts could be used.
Enhanced Senses - I always use this on a shooty Tyrant. We want to do the maximum amount of damage.
Toxin Sacs - See above.
Shadow in the Warp - I like this power. I want the flexibility to deal with certain Chaos, Eldar and SM lists that rely on their own psychic abilities. It is optional though.
Lash Whips - A contentious choice. Some prefer the extra atttack others lioke the added defence. With Horror and Shadow and Lash Whips your Tyrant is nigh unassailable.
WON - In general I'm not a big fan of this upgrade. In a Choir list I like it. I am interested in shooting my opponent off the table. A disposable, returnable scoring unit seems ideal.
Other biomorphs and upgrades - Why? Keep them cheap as chips.
Scuttlers - I like them. It means they will not get shot up on the firdt teo turns when I'm setting up the Choir.
Scything Talons - Very optional. I happen top like the extra attacks.
Feeder Tendrils - Optional again. Some prefer Flesh Hooks with the amount of terrain in 5th edition. I keep going back and forth on this.
Warp Blast - Absolutely necessary for the added antitank. It might not be reliable but it is needed regardless.
Synapse - Optional if you think they are going to be close enough to Tyrants and if your Carnifexes will be close enough as well. I like the insurance but an extra Warp Blast would be nice.
We are using either Dakkafexes, Boomfexes or Sniperfexes.
Adrenal Glands +1 I - Try and fit this in on a Boomfex but it is optional.
Mace Tail - Only if points allow.
Reinforced Chitin, Extended Carapace - Very optional. Again it is nice but you need to have the spare points.
Choir lists work best against Orks, IG, Tau and Necrons. Guard simply fold in half to any shots that come their way, Marines' knees buckle in fear.
Necrons will turn tail and run off the board. One of the most devastating attacks on Necrons is Psychic Choir combined with pinning weapons. Remember, if you take 25% casualties from a pinning weapon you still test for pinning and then you test again for running, even if you are already pinned. Pinning neuters their strongest suit – shooting. It will ensure that you get the charge in cc as well. If you engage them in combat with your stealers they are in very bad shape. You'll sweep him if he fails CC.
With the number of Ork armies that you can expect to see, a Psychic Choir army is tempting. The combination of pinning and low LD will stop hordes and bikers alike. It is not that Genestealers aren't also good against Orks. They are very good. Unholy Choirs though are the closest to auto win you get though. Psychic scream is a godsend against Orks, often lowering their LD to the 2-4 range after losing combat or from taking shooting casualties. This combined with your Barbed Stranglers makes the Unholy Choir the list of choice against them.
A fearless unit is immune to this effect so the list needs punch without the Screams. Chaos has many lists that can hurt us. Eldar and Space Marines will handle this list as they do a standard Nidzilla list which is still matches we can win. Shadow in the Warp is useful against the Lash, Librarian powers and even Eldar neutering Runes of Warding.
•	If you decide to play a doubles tournament pick Dark Eldar for a partner. Stacking Scream and Dark Eldar Horrorfex or Xenospasms is devastating. With one round of shooting you can pin an entire force. Just do not tell anyone I told you to do it!
Many experienced Tyranid players feel that a mixed list with a lot of gaunts is the strongest Tyranid build. They believe Nidzilla has too many inherent weaknesses with so few models, Carnifexes that fall to heavy weapons and not enough scoring troops. Although this is an Unholy Choir list it plays similar to Nidzilla so lets examine this premise.
Even with troops being the only scoring units able to claim objectives, if you kill all your opponents troops quickly, one or two squads of gaunts troops coming in from reserve to claim a nearby objective wins the game.
When 5th edition came out many thought the lack of troops in MC lists would hurt Nidzilla. It didn't. The no retreat rules and run have made our MCs and stealers prefered squads in a tyranid list. Hive Tyrants, Fexs and Stealers are the best our codex has to offer.
Gaunts are useful to hold objectives and for cover saves and tar pitting. You do not need that many mobs to use their strengths. Who in their right mind is going to target your gaunts when two Hive Tyrants w/Gaurd and up to six Carnifexes are running at them?
Tyranids do not have characters. Monstrous creatures are our among our best units, can deal the most damage and have the most survivability. Twin linked devourers and Barbed Stranglers are fantastic weapons. Our MCs, Tyrants and warriors are the only squads that get to use them.
Not having to move 150 troops a turn at a tournament floats my boat. Even in casual league play you can get three games in a lot easier. Okay - this is what people think is the only viable reason to run Nidzilla and on its own it is not enough of a validation. But it isn't the only reason to run Nidzilla nad coupled with its strengths just makes Zilla that much better.
Keeping all of this mind we have room to customize any current list easily with the Unholy Choir. You do not have to fit in four Barbed Strangler and five Psychic Screams. You can use a Flyrant with Scream if you like too. You can add leaping Warriors and more gaunts. Like any list built around a theme a hybrid list can work well too. In smaller lists I like four Psychic Screams and one Shadow in the Warp and they combine nicely.
The Nidzilla Unholy choir is still considered 'cheese'. When opponents are not prepared to face it as in the case of Nob Biker lists or the Sallie lists the easiest way to deal with it is to cry ' cheese' Do not believe it will win almost any tournament entered. However, with up to seven MCs and five Psychic Screams and you can shoot four to five squads to below 25% every turn. Running opponents off the board is quite possible.
In 40k it seems that GW can't get proper game balance to save their lives. Some might argue that this list takes advantage of the rules to get a list that is as effective as possible within the points limit and impossible to beat with some armies. People on the receiving end might choose resort to calling the list 'cheese' instead of either coming up with counters which, given the lack of game balance may not be possible, utilizing similar tactics themselves or tailoring a list to beat it.
Overall, I think the Unholy Choir is an effective list in 5th edition and is easily incorporated into a Nidzilla framework.
There only 1 thing I have to reply.
Still you got a slightly problem in youre zoanthropes.
Its seems there fine if they dont have at star the warp field power, which means you need to decide 2 more powers, not 3. Soo decide youreselft bettewn Synapse creature, psychic scream or warp blast.
This little extra synapse might come in handy depending on how you end up deploying and attacking your opponent. It is a little insurance policy.
The list is designed to be an 'all comers' list. However, Ork players cry when they see an abundance of Barbed Stranglers in a list. One or two are not too frightening as they will scatter. But use four (I have a list that is similar but not Unholy Choir that uses five at 1250&lt and it almost appears as if you are tailoring a list. Add in the Psychic Screams and Nob Bikers and hordes stop moving as they will fail LD tests even with their Bosspoles. In testing heavy Strangler lists against Orks, we have yet to lose - I played the Orks in the tests and I know Orks well. It was just frustrating for me to go up against it. By turn two a savvy Choir player will have effectively locked the Orks down if he prioritizes properly. Expect Ork Koptas and Kommandos to go after your MCs. Be prepared for it and you will be able to deal with it. If your opponent is tailoring a list he will use three squads of Kommandos and Koptas to avoid being pinned. This, however, is so rare in a tournament setting that you should deal with it in play by keeping your troops away from the table edges and using a gaunt screen. You might lose an MC but then you will win the game. It leaves less Orks on the table for the first two turns and that makes your task easier.
My common oponent use the normal quantity of the boys to overwell the oponents.
In a 1250 pts list, he use to play with 1 battlewagon, 2 looted wagons with boomguns, the mek with shokk attack gun, 30 gretchins, total boys for about 100/120, 1 or 2 killa kans, and sometimes another mek with that stupid force field stuff. All mobs have at least a power claw, 1 rokkit launcha and sometimes 3 big shootas.
being resign makes them special peices and have to be very carefully using them.
Even the way, you think youre tanks are small to hierophants and hierodules, Well you dont realize how much points they cost.
A scything hierodule is around 600 pts, 750 the barbed hierodule and 1250pts the hierophant...pretty nasty and expsnive units.
What you expect in face of gargantuan creatures, not even there huge and the long range ones shot alots of S10 shots there also incredibly fast for their size.
Even an IG player that get 1/2 baneblades still worried about tyranid armies.
I´ve played against IG and I never lost, and the results are al lthe same, a complete slaugther, I still have manage a half wounded scythed hierodule to pop up a baneblade with 1 charge.

Our dear friend Gill popped in for the weekend. It's easy to say, but "popping in" meant a ridiculously early flight for Gill from the UK on Friday morning to Pisa where the entire Mowday clan went to pick her up.
It was great to see her and the girls got straight down to business. Three bottles of Moet disappeared almost immediately followed by a couple of bottles of Chardonnay (one a kiwi chardonnay saved especially for the occasion) over a dinner of Jeans famous roast chicken and potatoes. Suffice it to say Saturday started slowly in the cottage.
There was a little "pool time" and then dinner in the Campo at Al Mangia. Because the Campo is being prepared for the Palio on Saturday 2 July, barriers and stands are in the process of being erected and we had dinner in what is soon to be the middle of the racecourse on 3 inches of hard packed clay with race barriers on each side. Imagine having dinner on the finish line at Trentham racecourse and you'll get the idea.
All around us Campo life continued as always with bars and restaurants doing their usual business – but all in slightly surreal surroundings. It wasn't quite what we expected or had planned. Jean being the control freak she is spent the first 15 minutes saying "this isn't right, no, this isn't right" repeatedly and wanting them just to "put it back the way it was" but Gill pointed out it was a truly unique experience. A couple of bottles of wine and an excellent meal helped everyone mellow somewhat.
We will see Gill and family again in late July and can't wait.
Last night we caught up with Kate and her family who are spending 2 months travelling around Europe. Kate used to work with Jean at Clemenger but she is currently based in the UK with her partner.
Jean had put Kate in touch with our villa wizard friend Olga when their trip was being planned but made sure to recommended a villa we had stayed at previously. Villa Crognole is a beautiful villa tucked into the Chianti hills with a view down the valley towards Radda.
We called into Crognole yesterday afternoon for a drink or two along with Olga and her husband which meant the afternoon was spent sitting in the sun discussing travel, news from home, and any other subject that wandered into people's minds, all in a mix of english, italian and kiwi.
We went to dinner with Kate and her family at Le Vigne restaurant just outside Radda. It was dining al fresco with a view over the vineyards that produce some of the great Chianti Classico wines.
Dinner was lovely and all done on Italian time. That simply means that the wine and various courses rolled out through the evening until we finally left the restaurant, just before midnight.
Good people, great company and truly la dolce vita.

Perspectives on Ecocriticism
Local Beginnings, Global Echoes
Editor(s): Ingemar Haag, Karin Molander Danielsson, Marie Öhman, Thorsten Päplow
This volume gathers together papers presented at the conference "Ecocriticism in the Nordic Countries; Yesterday, Today, Tomorrow" held in Västerås, Sweden, in 2017, organized by the research group Ecocritical Forum at Mälardalen University. The conference, which was an attempt to survey local ecocritical activities, transcended Nordic boundaries, engaging scholars from Europe and the United States. This expansion from the local to the global mirrors the subject of the conference: ecocriticism, a cross-disciplinary field of research in the intersection of environmental issues and cultural expressions.
The chapters here engage with topical issues such as the Anthropocene, sustainability in education, and civilizational critique, as well as schools of thought such as materialism, dark ecology and animal studies. The contributions discuss several types of cultural expressions, including film and other visual media, university course design and Nordic, and English language novels and poetry. This volume will attract the interest of readers from a number of different backgrounds, both in the Nordic countries and internationally.

The English Premier League's transfer window will shut down in a little more than a week, but over in Scotland, the transfer window will still be open for more than a month.
So, answer this again, who's got the greatest league in the world?
Yep, four weeks more of madness, excitement, heartbreak and downright fervour remains before the window finally slams (enough of the hyperbole, it just creaks) shut.
Right, on to today's business. Will Kyle Lafferty put a seal on his return to Rangers as Steven Gerrard attempts to land one of his last two signings?
Can Celtic add to Odsonne Edouard – potentially with the signature of Aussie rising star Daniel?
And will Derek McInnes finally secure a deal for a striker? All these questions and more lingers in the heart of many Scottish league fans and hopefully, they will all be answered in today's LIVE transfer blog!

Fords latest self-driving car looks surprisingly normal
By Matthew Griffin Future Transport 14th December 2016
Most of us can spot a self-driving car from a mile off because of the huge, bulky sensor arrays strapped to their rooves, but as s
Ford has pulled the wraps off of its second-generation driverless Fusion Hybrid just one week before the company is scheduled to show the car off at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas. The most notable difference with the new generation is cosmetic — Ford has ditched the pipe organ-style suite of sensors on the roof in favour of a more streamlined look. Ford's first autonomous car was undeniably alien, but from most angles the new version could easily be mistaken for just another car.
Researchers hacked a Tesla's autopilot using three stickers on the road
In addition to the new car, Ford also says it plans to triple its fleet of driverless Fusion sedans to about 90 cars in the coming year. The company is already testing its original autonomous car in California, Arizona, and Michigan, and plans to expand those tests to Europe — starting with the United Kingdom and Germany.
Ford says that the improvements it has made to the project, which started three years ago, should keep it on track to hit the company's target of creating a fully autonomous car that can be used by ride-sharing or ride-hailing services by 2021.
Chris Brewer, the chief engineer for Ford's autonomous vehicle program, detailed the tech behind the new computer-controlled car in a post on Medium. Brewer says his team upgraded both the hardware and the software on the new driverless Fusion, allowing this version of the car to "see" two football fields of distance in every direction. Ford's second-generation autonomous car will also generate one terabyte of data per hour, and that data is processed by the car's brain, which is located in the trunk.
Singapore is developing a drone airspace management system
The revamped driverless Fusion is a clear result of a number of investments and acquisitions that Ford made around the time the company announced its intentions to create a fully autonomous car by 2021. Brewer says that one reason Ford was able to streamline the look of the new car is that the new LIDAR sensors from Velodyne — which Ford and Chinese web giant Baidu invested $150 million in — have improved enough that Ford can get as much data using two of them as they used to with four.

Did you know that eggs aren't the only thing you can slice with your egg slicer? Here are some great ideas of other things you can slice with this gadget. Gotta love a good kitchen hack!
I have a little kitchen hack for you. Who here has an egg slicer? *waves hands in the air like a maniac* Well, if you don't have one, it might be time to look into it because I'm about to show you some awesome uses for your Egg Slicer , outside of boiled eggs.
I've been using an egg slicer for as long as I can remember. My mom showed me how to operate hers at an early age. This probably has a lot to do with the fact that I seriously love eggs. But until recently, I never thought to use my slicer for anything other than eggs.
Then I realized there were a ton of things I could do with it and it opened up an entire world of possibilities to me and made life much easier So I want to share some of those uses with you.
What else can you slice with an egg slicer?
Butter– this is perfect for entertaining because you can have clean and uniform looking pats of butter all ready to go!
Soft cheeses like fresh mozzarella and cheddar– Once again, a great way to have cheese slices ready to go for last minute guests.
Olives– These are perfect to sprinkle over a salad!
Strawberries– I love to use this trick in the morning. My girls live for strawberries and it always seems like I can't cut them fast enough…until now!
Kiwi and other soft fruits– The perfect addition to any fruit salad!
Mushrooms– I love how quick and easy this makes it to slice up mushrooms for pasta or sautéed mushrooms.
Hot dogs– When you're past the point of cutting them into teeny, tiny bits for your kids but still not giving them the whole hot dog, this is the quickest way to get them cut!
Avocado– It goes deliciously on pretty much anything and looks so pretty when thinly sliced!
Zucchini– the most efficient way to slice these up before sautéing or adding it to your grill basket.
Cooked potato– boil 'em down, slice them up and fry them!
Cooked carrots– perfect before putting them into soup!

Erdogan Threatens War on the Syrian Arab Army (SAA)
Region: Middle East
Country: Syria
Jihadi forces backed by Turkish infantry and artillery have launched a general counter-attack on the west flank of Saraqib, both north and south of the M-4 highway. Erdogan has now cast his fate openly with the terrorists to prevent the liberation of Idlib.
I am wrapping up this current Idlib-Aleppo battlefront report on Sunday, February 9th. You will find two earlier sections below, picking up the Idlib battle after the major city Maraat al-Numaan was taken on the M-5 highway.
The last three days have seen major SAA coalition gains, despite two days of bad weather where air strikes were not flown but the ground forces continued their methodical advance in clearing the Saraqib flanks of jihadi forces.
Syria's 25th Special Forces Division continued pushing north up the M-5 to eventually meet the SAA elite 4th Division, Republican Guard, and Lebanon's Hezbollah, pushing south to reconnect Damascus and Aleppo with their main logistics road critically needed for launching the final battle to clear Idlib.
Special Forces troops pushing up from Saraqib city have captured the key hilltop al-Ais position (365 meters high) that can observe M5 traffic both north and south and deep into its west flank. News photos showed the troops gaining the peak in darkness, freeing more Syrian territory from the grip of the US coalition terror proxies created to overthrow and carve up Syria.
At the end of the article, I have a 38 minute combat video link of the Saraqib fight, from the Abkhazia News crew where you will get a first hand look at some of the tactics used, including the full use of drones behind the battle lines to locate jihadi groups trying to hide with their equipment only to be followed and destroyed in their lairs, saving a lot of lives for the SAA.
Syrian coalition advancing with low casualties
The fighting morale of the jihadis in Idlib City will have to be affected by all those who never come home from the M-5 highway battle. Sunday, today, the planes were back in the air, striking targets of opportunity with the news that we saw no counter attacks against last week's gains.
Aleppo forces have been pushing south on the M-5 and appear in position to be able to connect with their compatriots pushing north. Turkey's observation posts, designed to protect its proxy terrorists, have backfired with all of them in the current liberated areas surrounded and unofficial prisoners of the SAA.
Mr. Erdogan continues to ship more special forces and armor into the area, apparently to increase his bargaining hand at the negotiations he claims he wants to have. Fortunately, there have been no Turkish or Russian combat deaths reported in the last two days.
Erdogan has a weak hand, as the world has seen that he exploited his partnership in the Astana agreement by doing nothing to separate the various al-Qaeda groups from the Syrian militant ones. His plan to Balkanize northeast Syria into a Turkish de facto colony is not working out as he had wanted.
He incredibly has demanded that the Syrian Army leave Idlib, its own territory, by the end of February. That was considered a bad joke. Although he has mention he has a plan B and C, so do the Syrians and Russians. Putin has no intention of fighting in Syria indefinitely.
Iran has been deathly quiet in the Putin-Erdogan showdown, despite Iran having militias on the Aleppo western front in combat. This will be a delicate political situation to prevent its escalation.
Erodgan has already broken his agreement, so he is now "Turkey's Trump," in terms of what is the point of making a new deal with the guy that broke the last one? Everyone understands that Erdogan does not want all those unhappy jihadis coming back to into Turkey. Will he threaten to unleash them on Europe, or shift them to another front, maybe the Kurdish north to make more trouble?
The SAA allies take Saraqib with few casualties
We woke up this morning, February 6th to see that the Syrian army had completely taken Saraqib and its three Turkish observation posts. When I went to bed, they had cut the M-5 highway to the north, but this morning the battlemaps showed that Tiger Force unit continued on to take Afis and Sarmin to the west, blocking the escape road to Idlib.
The video reports were all in Arabic but showed truckloads of jubilant Syrian soldiers who had cleared Saraqib's center and were redeploying to new positions. There have been no estimates of casualties on this fast moving battle.
Erdogan's response was an amazing statement that if the Syrian army did not desist in retaking its own territory, Turkey would have to intercede to push them out. He might go down in history to have made such an outlandish demand.
Most considered this a big bluff, but there's reports claiming that Russia would love to take the Turks on, as it has not forgotten the Russian pilot who was shot down and murdered by Turkish militants after he was captured.
That would make for one huge geopolitical mess when Russia and Turkey have a lot of joint interests at stake. Moscow knows that Idlib must be cleared of jihadis before any election can be held in the country, which is why Erdogan wants to keep the jihadis there. He has been a subversive partner to the Astana process, never honoring his word to separate the terror jihadists from the militant forces there.
The jihadi leadership in Idlib deployed some of their forces during the afternoon to counter attack on the west flank of the M-5 road below Saraqib, obviously trying to tie down Syrian forces in defensive positions there and threaten the critical supply road.
Another counterattack was launched north of Saraqib on both flanks of the M-5 in an attempt to bottle up the Syrian attack there. Later news came that a Turkish column with dozens of armored fighting vehicle had arrived in Taftanaz airbase in central north Idlib.
This appears to have been chosen by the Turkish military as a staging base, as it is equidistant from Idlib, Saraqib, and Aleppo so it can shift replacement equipment where needed, especially to be able to threaten a Syrian advance on the M-5 road.
I would bet the Turks want to keep the battle for the highway as drawn out as possible. That said, we had a morning report that part of the Saraqib assault forces had been detached to Aleppo. Ideally the best strategy would be retaking the M-5 from both directions to divide the fire power of the Idlib jihadis.
They have a huge disadvantage in that they will have to maneuver to attack over open territory where they will be subject to attack on the move and in their advance positions. Due to the effective air cover they have had, the Syrian Army has avoided losing a lot of its experienced combat troops.
The battle for Saraqib – February 5
Saraqib city in Idlib province is being attacked by the Syrian Army 25th Special Forces Division. One of the specialties it was trained in was night attacks, as the attacking force sustains fewer casualties from an entrenched opponent not known to have night vision capability.
This action will be another combined operations affair involving Syrian artillery, the 25th, both the Syrian and Russian air forces and their drones for both surveillance and combat operations. If nothing good has come out of the Syrian war, at least it has honed both countries' fighting forces into being the most experienced counter-terrorism forces on the planet.
I cover the Part 1 of the second Idlib advance below, which I had stopped after Maraat al-Numaan was taken and the advance got bogged down in bad weather for two weeks. We did not know if the 25th division might be split in half to give Aleppo an attacking force to push the jihadis in the west back out of grad rocket range.
If so, we expected it would next start taking the M-5 highway going south, while the rest of the division continued the attack north from Maraat al-Numaan up the M-5 which connects the western part of Syria from Damascus to Aleppo.
I could not foresee the Syrian coalition making a final push to clear the entrenched jihadis out of northern Idlib until they had the entire M-5 highway controlled, with all jihadis cleared out of its eastern side and a safe buffer on the west. One cannot launch the final battle without completely secure lines of supply.
The advance up M-5 highway from Maraat al-Numaan
The SAA's attacking strategy was not to battle their way on the M-5 north through a gauntlet of IEDs and anti-armor missiles that would inflict losses which Syria cannot afford, especially among its best troops.
The attack was a right flank on a broad flank from around al-Numaan, as this compels the enemy to spread its forces out more sparsely. This gives the respective air forces more opportunity to target them while they are on the roads and to locate supply and command centers from traffic patterns and communications intercepts.
This advance moved west out of Syrian controlled territory east of the M-5, while simultaneously clearing all jihadi forces on this flank. When that was completed, the SAA cut the M-5 at Khan al-Sobol, midway between Maraat al-Numaan and Saraqib.
With the road cut, Syrian forces began moving north on the M-5 while clearing its western flank from enemy forces to have the road usable for logistic supplies to sustain the Syrian attack. Jihadi and Turkish backed militants made attempts to contest clearing this western flank, but the air forces played a key role in eliminating those units.
Further north, the Tiger forces had pushed up M-5, from Khan al-Sobol to the southern approaches to Saraqib and had to stop while the right flank was cleared. That is when Turkey decided to put its forces into a blocking position to stop the Syrian advance.
Turkish outposts in Syria fail to intimidate SAA
A ring of new Turkish observation posts had been quickly set up around the city as a "trip wire" for the Syrian army not to cross. The Syrian army stopped its M5 north advance and began retaking towns and villages east and west of the highway, starting to go around the Turkish outposts.
The next day a Turkish column with lots of armor and Turkish troops was attacked by air and seems to have disappeared since then. Erdogan claimed the Syrian air force had attacked and that Turkey retaliated with heavy shelling and F-1 bombing runs against the Syrian forces.
After Erdogan made the claim for which mysteriously there were no photos or video confirmations, he began back pedaling on his threats to invade Syria if it did not stop clearing Erdogan's favorite terrorists out of Idlib.
While Erdogan talked and threatened, the Syrian 25th Special Ops division flanked Saraqib on its west flank first, cutting the M-4 highway, and then the following day cleared the eastern flank to within mortar range and swung north to cut the M-5 road behind the Turkish observation post, making a bag of three of them that are surrounded and isolated.
There is a secondary road open to the west to Idlib, what the infamous Sun Tzu called the golden bridge that should always be left open for an enemy to break and flee.
If the jihadis cleared out in time, some might have made it to Idlib. For those who engaged in a night fight with the 25th, if they find themselves retreating west in the morning I suspect the planes will be on them, and there would be no sense in letting them get back to Idlib to fight from the prepared defenses there.
The Maraat al-Numaan campaign up the M-5 highway
After the long delays since the successful south Idlib advance by the SAA, many Syria watchers were dismayed to see the attack fizzle when Damascus had the advantage over defeated and dispirited jihadis facing them in the north.
Traditional military doctrine would have expected Assad to have had fresh troops lined up to kick off a stage two advance to keep the momentum rolling northward before the jihadis dug themselves into newly prepared defensive lines that would be more costly to take. We were wrong.
While we waited with the winter weather conditions coming on, the Russian and Syrian air forces continued their systematic hunting down and precision bombing of terrorist and militant ammo and supply dumps, along with their command centers.
There had been talk of an Aleppo offensive, sorely needed as the battle lines there had left the jihadi formations west of the city within rocket range of the center of downtown Aleppo. As the SAA coalition bombing campaign rolled on in Idlib, it was just a matter of time before HTS forces in western Aleppo would start shelling the city to relieve pressure on Idlib, and they did.
The formerly named Tiger forces who have made major gains in defeating ISIS in the eastern and northeastern parts of the country had their command renamed 25th Special Forces Division. It is specially trained in launching night attacks, which have been effective in the past.
After a methodical westward advance into Idlib province along a broad front toward the M-5 highway to the next major city Maraat al-Numaan that dispersed the militant defensive forces, the SAA got close to being within shelling distance of the city.
Then the jihadi defenses seemed to have collapsed, either through attrition from the air attacks or the Idlib central command pulling troops northward to defend the Aleppo front. Some analysts have suggested that evacuation corridors that had allowed 350,000 Idlib residents get out of harm's way allowed the Syrian coalition to be more aggressive with its firepower tactics.
The mad terrorists in Idlib city still had their civilian human shields as some protection from the worst bombing and wanted to save their fighting power for the major battle to come there.
What will Turkey do as the jihadis go down?
Mr. Erdogan has calmed down over the northeast Syria Kurdish front, after his endless claims of a hoard of Kurdish terrorists ready to attack Turkey from Syria, an hysterical show that no one believed. I never heard or read of a Kurdish terrorist attack anywhere along the Syrian northern border.
His attention had shifted to Libya, where he has invested Turkish proxy forces we think were pulled out of Syria and paid $3000 a month to fight for Tripoli when they were getting paid $400 inside Syria.
Erdogan also has big gas dreams in his eyes, with his sudden claim of having a joint economic zone with Libya extending between their two respective countries and through which the new Israeli operating gas platform had planned to build a pipeline. There will be a big political battle over that.
Here is the Abkhazian Network News Agency (ANNA) 38 minutes of combat video footage on the liberation of Saraqib city by the SAA and it allies. This is among the best footage I have seen during the war to show what has really gone on there. An appropriate age confirmation is required to watch it.

Eddie "Two Moons" Chavez
CHIRICAHUA APACHE SILVERSMITH
Find all Two Moons items
Eddie brings the strength of his beliefs, his commitment to Apache values of respect and tradition, and a humble devotion to the gift entrusted with him by the Creator. In his hands, metals and stones are imbued with purpose.
Eddie is half-Apache from his mother, and grew up in Albuquerque, far from the Chiracahua tribe. In the early 1970's, he wandered farther, spiritually, from the Apache, when he did piecework for a local jewelry manufacturer. Working in plastic casts and copper, incorporating Apache symbols of life and religion, his own disrespect slowly ate away at his creativity and heart. Apache medicine man, Robert Eaglehawk, offered a path back to honor. Eddie had to quit the piecework and also stop using Apache symbols in his work for one life: 30 years. With this sacrifice, he could redeem himself.
This Eddie did, devoting himself to other work and to raising a family. When the time came, the passion and dedication building inside Eddie flowed from his heart through his veins and into his hands which held the metals and stones.
When Eddie was married, Robert Eaglehawk cut four pieces of skin from Eddie's arms to give back to the Creator. Robert said, "You can't give him money. He owns everything anyway. All you can give him is of yourself." The four pieces of skin were placed in the four sacred directions.
Eddie says, "My motivation comes from these events and my sincerity is based on my respect for the Apache tradition."
In 1982, Eddie was the first Native American graduate of the Gemological Institute of America. Now, over twenty years later, he was among the invited few to participate in the Native Nation Procession in 2004 for the ceremonial grand opening of the National Museum of the American Indian at the Smithsonian in D.C.
What a wonderful, inspiring journey Eddie has taken. As a child, he really had no mentor, yet a talent burned inside him. Alone, he picked up jewelry tools and taught himself the skills to bring his visions to life in metal. But any craftsman will tell you that talent is not enough to sustain. Desire is not enough. Even determination and passion are not enough. These emotions are too fiery and combustible. An artist's creations are nurtured by the humblest of attitudes: vulnerability. A defenseless quest for truth about one's self and the world.
Eddie's name, Two Moons, represents the two worlds: the one we live in and the other the spiritual world. He says, "I live in the physical world, but my heart lives in the spiritual realm," where we believe our Creator and his expectations on how to live our life gift that he has given us.
"I rise and exit into a make-believe place, where I once again try to create balance. It is my purpose here." Eddie's jewelry resonates with spiritual commitment.

The Quirky Bird Art of Paula Swisher — Anna Maria Johnson
Artist Paula Swisher (photo by Andrew Huth)
The Quirky Bird Art of Paula Swisher
text by Anna Maria Johnson, bird imagery by Paula Swisher
I was privileged to meet Paula Swisher in 1997 while she and I were both studying art at Houghton College in rural western New York. Many late nights, we stayed up painting, drawing, and sharing our life stories. Paula is probably the hardest-working visual artist that I've met, and in the past decade or so, has created a rich and wide-ranging body of work in a variety of media–painting, drawing, graphic design, web design, and most recently, interactive media.
In light of recent NC community posts about the relationship between text and images, notably Wendy Voorsanger's "An Exploration of Poem Painting," I thought it would be appropriate to share some of Paula's images which she painted directly onto the pages of discarded business textbooks. Many of her images are direct responses to the pre-existing graphs and phrases from these textbooks, but she re-interprets the business-speak through the lens of her personal experiences to say something entirely new and different.
For instance, Paula Swisher began this particular bird-and-text series during an extended bout of unemployment.
Hearing a statistic such as "the national unemployment rate hovers at such-and-such a percent" carries little personal meaning for many of us, but seeing a visual rendering of a delicately feathered bird living in the middle of the unemployment graph allows me to comprehend what the statistic feels like for many jobless Americans. Both visual and literary arts, at their best, communicate on emotional and subconscious levels as much as on an intellectual, conscious one.
"Some Disappointments in Great Ideas"
Would it be overly melodramatic to say that I suspect that all artists, at one time or another, experience disappointment that feels almost as severe as a violent death? This particular bird image recalls Paula's earlier work which depicted birds in graphically violent scenes, which she worked in multiple shades of glitter.
Slightly more hopeful is an interpretation of the "project life cycle," which shows an endlessly circular path—but with the important caveat that each successive trip around the loop is increasingly fortified "with knowledge accumulated." Some color theorists surmise that the color blue inspires creativity. If so, then the blue bird subtly modifies the text and accompanying graph and diagram so that they refer, perhaps unconsciously, to the creative process.
"A Typical Path of Frustration"
Poem Paintings
Many of Paula's images, through their use of ample negative space and spare text, read like heart-breaking poems.
"It is Often Futile"
Is this bird searching for its own eyes? If so, one might interpret this image to be a metaphor of searching for one's inner vision. Alternatively, it might simply be rather funny.
Then again, maybe not:
"Best Efforts Not Sufficient"
Her "Cedar Waxwing: Sine Curve" is sheer beauty. In it, the textual content is important only for aesthetic reasons, revealing beauty in mathematical abstraction. It is math for art's sake.

Mary, Gary, Robin–thanks for the encouragement.
I highly recommend a leisurely visit to this artist's site. No one word to describe. Her work has inspired a new character in one of my current fictions. Thanks,again Anna Maria.
"inspired a new character" . . . is definitely the best sort of compliment I could get!

(INN) est un logiciel serveur de news Usenet publié par Rich Salz en 1991 et présenté lors de la conférence USENIX de l'été 1992 à San Antonio, Texas. C'est le premier logiciel à avoir intégré le protocole NNTP. Il est maintenant développé par l'Internet Systems Consortium.

Alors que les serveurs existant traitaient les articles individuellement ou par lot, innd est un processus démon qui reçoit les articles par le réseau, les inscrit sous forme de fichier et enregistre quels hôtes doivent les recevoir. Les lecteurs peuvent accéder aux articles directement depuis le disque de la même manière que B News et C News. Le logiciel propose aussi le programme nnrpd qui permet de servir les lecteurs de news qui emploient NNTP.

Une amélioration a, plus tard, été apportée en utilisant un système de fichier cyclique (CNFS, Cyclical News Filesystem). Implémenté par Scott Fritchie, le système stocke les articles séquentiellement dans d'importants buffers sur le disque. Ainsi, les performances sont améliorées puisque le système d'exploitation n'a plus à se préoccuper de la gestion de centaines de milliers de petits fichiers.

Plus tard, le programme innfeed écrit par James BRister a été ajouté. Comme innd, innfeed envoie les articles à d'autres serveurs tandis que innxmit les traite par lots. Cette association permet aux articles d'être reçus et redistribués avec une latence quasi nulle. Ce système a changé la nature des interactions au sein d'Usenet puisque les messages sont disséminés en quelques minutes au lieu de plusieurs heures, voire plusieurs jours. Un programme similaire existait auparavant, nntplink, mais été écrit indépendamment de l'ensemble INN.

INN est toujours activement développé et maintenu par des volontaires.

Oil paint is my favorite paint. I don't know any other paint that is as versatile as oil paint. You can apply it in thick layers, but transparency is also an option. Another advantage of oil paint is how fast, or rather how slow, it dries. This allows you to work on a surface much longer than with, for example, acrylics.
In my work gradients are quite common, gradual transitions from one color or shade to another. Because of the fact that oil takes rather a long time to dry, it is excellent for painting these gradients. In my seascapes the first layer of the sea is often a gradient, with a lighter color close to the horizon and a darker one on the bottom of the painting.

Two more charges following Bulwell disturbance
Two more people have been charged in connection with a disturbance which culminated in a serious collision.
Leona Bailey, 25, of Cinderhill Road, Bulwell, and Shehzaam Ayub, 21, of Collison Street, Radford, will appear at Nottingham Magistrates' Court today (Tuesday 14 January). Bailey has been charged with causing grievous bodily harm and Ayub has been charged with affray and possession of an offensive weapon.
It follows a report of a collision on Saxondale Drive, Bulwell, involving a man and a car, at about 2.15pm on Saturday (11 January). It was later established that a disturbance had taken place between a group of people before the collision took place.
Three other people also appeared before magistrates yesterday (Monday 13 January), each charged with affray and possession of a bladed article in connection with the incident. Shaad Ayub, 28, of Brayton Crescent, Bulwell, Sufiyan Hussain, 22, of Patchwork Row, Shirebrook, and Shaban Hussain, 19, of Brayton Crescent, Bulwell, were remanded in custody to appear at Nottingham Crown Court on 10 February.
Detective Inspector Ed Cook, of Nottinghamshire Police, said: "Officers have worked continuously around the clock to investigate the incident and secure so many charges.
Five people have now been charged and our enquiries are continuing at pace.
"The man who was injured by the car suffered serious chest injuries. Thankfully he is in a stable condition and his injuries are now not believed to be life-threatening.
"Serious violence, including the use of knives and other weapons, will not be tolerated in Nottinghamshire and we will deal with such incidents swiftly and robustly."
101 is the number to call when you need to contact Nottinghamshire Police and it's less urgent than a 999 call. Calls cost 15p, no matter how long the call lasts.
Three charges and two more arrests after Bulwell disturbance
Three men are due to appear at Nottingham Magistrates' Court today in connection with a disturbance which culminated in a serious collision.
Officers were called to a report of a collision on Saxondale Drive, Bulwell, involving a man and a car, at about 2.15pm on Saturday (11 January). It was later established that a disturbance had taken place between a group of people before the collision took place.
Shaad Ayub, 28, of Brayton Crescent, Bulwell, Sufiyan Hussain, 22, of Patchwork Row, Shirebrook, and Shaban Hussain, 19, of Brayton Crescent, Bulwell, have each been charged with affray and possession of a bladed article in connection with the incident.
Two other people arrested in connection with the incident, a 26-year-old man and a 17-year-old boy have been released on police bail pending further enquiries.
Officers today (Monday 13 January) also arrested a 25-year-old woman on suspicion of causing grievous bodily harm and a 21-year-old man on suspicion of affray and possession of an offensive weapon in connection with the incident.
The man who was injured by the car was taken to Nottingham's Queens Medical Centre with serious chest injuries. He is in a stable condition and his injuries are now not believed to be life-threatening.
Enquiries are continuing and anyone who witnessed the disturbance are urged to contact Nottinghamshire Police on 101, quoting incident number 445 of 11 January 2020.
Update: Two boys charged in connection with stabbing
Two 16-year-old boys have been charged in connection with a report of a stabbing in Clifton.
Officers were called to the Sunninghill Drive area just before 7.25pm on Friday (10 January 2020) after a report that an 18-year-old man had been stabbed in the chest.
The man, who was found on Woodsford Grove, remains in hospital. His injuries are not believed to be life-threatening.
Man sentenced after being seen brandishing knife of tram
A man seen brandishing a knife on a tram has been given a suspended prison sentence.
Simon Abbott, of Heddington Gardens, Arnold, was seen holding the knife after getting into an altercation with another man who threw a plastic bottle at him on the tram at Waverley Street at around 8pm on 10 May 2019.
CCTV from the tram also confirmed the witness reports.
The 41-year-old admitted possession of a bladed article and was sentenced to six months in prison - suspended for 18 months - at Nottingham Crown Court on Friday 20 December.
He was also ordered to pay a £150 victim surcharge and given a three-month curfew.
PC Craig Grimley, who led the investigation, said: "The incident was witnessed by a number of people and would have been distressing for people going about their business using the tram.
"Possession a knife in public is an offence and we will always seek to put people before the courts for carrying weapons."
Man jailed for possession of craft knife
A man has been jailed for 148 days after being caught with a craft knife at a food bank.
Mark Rose, of Ilkeston Road, Nottingham, visited Grace Church Nottingham at the Ministry in Castle Boulevard with a friend at 11am on October 28 and was waiting outside when he was approached by a member of security staff who said she had been told he was carrying a knife.
He denied having a weapon on him but when he was searched he had a craft knife in his jacket pocket.
The 39-year-old was arrested on suspicion of possession of a bladed article. He admitted the offences and was sentenced at Nottingham Crown Court on Friday (20 December).
PC Charles Willett, who led the investigation, said: "While Rose did not take the knife out of his pocket it is still an offence to carry a knife in public.
"This case should act as a warning to anyone thinking of carrying weapons that we will seek to put them before the court if we catch them in possession of weapons, regardless of whether they are used."
Man due in court in connection with disturbance
A 29-year-old man is due to appear at Nottingham Magistrates' Court today (Tuesday 24 December) charged with seven offences in connection with a disturbance at a residential property in St Ann's.
Nottinghamshire Police were called just after 9.50am on Sunday 22 December to the report of the incident in Tulip Avenue, after it was reported that a man had sustained an injury to his hand from a knife. His injury was not life-threatening or life-altering.
Ragwez Osman, of no fixed address, has been charged with wounding, three offences of threats to kill, trespass with intent to commit a sexual offence, possession of a bladed article and assaulting a police officer.
