Peacemaker Review: The Suicide Squad Spin-Off Series Soars Like a CGI Eagle Thanks to Its Ensemble
The new HBO Max series, starring John Cena, premieres Thursday, January 13th
Peacemaker (HBO Max)
Liz Shannon Miller
January 4, 2022 | 12:01am ET
The Pitch: If you watched The Suicide Squad last year and got told that one of the characters would be getting a spinoff TV show, would Peacemaker (John Cena) have been your first guess? Even with the post-credits scene setting up the series, probably not. Nonetheless, James Gunn's first major TV project takes this blunt instrument of an anti-hero and uses him as the base for an at times strange, at times pretty fun action-horror adventure. (The term "superhero"… does not feel particularly applicable, in this case.)
"Previously, in The Suicide Squad…" That's not a bit — that's literally how the first episode of Peacemaker opens, treating the film like the true pilot episode of the series. (Which, it could be argued, it was.)
What's important to remember from that movie, if August 2021 is understandably too fuzzy a memory right now, is that during the Squad's wild-ass mission to Corto Maltese, vigilante hero Peacemaker, a.k.a. Christopher Smith, followed orders from Amanda Waller (Viola Davis) and killed Rick Flagg (Joel Kinnaman) to try to prevent government secrets from getting out. While initially presumed dead thanks to a bullet from Bloodsport (Idris Elba), a post-credits sequence revealed that Peacemaker survived, and the series begins with him returning home after his recovery.
Unfortunately, his homecoming isn't a very happy one, thanks to his bigoted asshole of a father Auggie (Robert Patrick) and his near-immediate recruitment into a new task force led by Clemson Murn (Chukwudi Iwuji). However, he's pretty happy to be a semi-free man, reunited with his beloved pet eagle Eagly (CGI) and making connections with his new teammates, who aren't exactly thrilled to have him on board. Unfortunately, an ominous threat is bubbling up, one which could have global implications.
The Gunn of It All: In looking back at Gunn's career since his 2006 breakout film Slither, what stands out thematically is a fascination with genre, especially horror and superhero stories, coupled with a unique streak of sincerity, along with what feels like an innate urge to push the boundaries of taste whenever possible (which wasn't all that often, when making PG-13 Marvel movies).
These elements combined to make his Suicide Squad feel like the ultimate expression of him as a filmmaker: plenty of ultra-violence and imaginative creature work, but underlying it all a lonely heart aching for family and connection. And it's in this spirit that the best moments of Peacemaker come to life.

Neighborhoods First! is dead-set against tax exemptions for Major League Soccer

Debbie Meister lives just west of Ayd Mill Road and a few blocks south of Selby Avenue, which puts her near the center of any number of transit-related issues in St. Paul.
Make Ayd Mill Road a linear park, no cars allowed? Ruff to that!
Meister, the treasurer for the decades-old community group Neighborhoods First!, has spoken out strongly on the ever-controversial subject of Ayd Mill Road — her organization would like it to become a linear park, completely free and clear of cars.
She's argued for making the new high-end apartments at the intersection of Selby and Snelling avenues more transit-friendly, and weighed in on medians on Marshall Avenue and the citywide bicycle plan.
Now, Neighborhoods First! is taking aim at another serious concern: Major League Soccer. The volunteer-driven community group is unhappy with the prospect of keeping 10 acres of land near Snelling and University avenues off the tax rolls in perpetuity for the sake of accommodating a possible 18,000 – 20,000 seat professional soccer stadium.
And this isn't just a handful of relative unknowns, malcontents and rabble rousers creating a stink. As far as name recognition goes, the community group's 10-member steering committee includes Green Party activist Roger Meyer, who briefly ran for St. Paul mayor before dropping out of contention in 2013.
Ayd Mill Road?
On Tuesday, Oct. 6, a handful of state lawmakers will host a town hall-style open forum at Gloria Dei Church, 700 Snelling Ave. South. Neighborhoods First! has put out the call to supporters to show up en masse with a message: "You need to tell them that you oppose a property tax exemption for a stadium in St. Paul's urban core."
The forum, which is expected to be a wide-ranging look at the legislative session and not stadium-specific, will be hosted by state Sen. Dick Cohen, state Rep. Erin Murphy and state Rep. Dave Pinto, all DFLers from St. Paul.
"This is just an opportunity to make your voices known," said Meister, who points out that two pro-stadium resolutions sailed through the city council and Ramsey County board without so much as a single public hearing between them.
"We would love people to make calls to their elected officials," Meister said. "We want people to have input. We're disappointed it's been such a closed-door process. So many people that I've talked to have said 'it's a done deal.' We're trying to say there are opportunities to be heard."
Transit-accessible design!
To be clear, St. Paul City Council President Russ Stark has loaded his support for a tax-free soccer stadium with a series of caveats — he wants the team to pay for construction and design in its entirety, and he's hoping that redevelopment of the neighboring Midway Shopping Center will move forward hand-in-hand, among other expectations and requirements.
It's unclear how much tax forgiveness is in question, as no stadium package has been formally unveiled. The 10 acres of Midway property are owned by the Metropolitan Council, and haven't generated tax dollars in roughly 50 years.
Nevertheless, the economy is picking up, and it's conceivable they could generate money if private enterprise were to be built there down the road. How much money remains open to debate. And more debate. And probably more debate.
So why bring the case to state lawmakers? Last March, when a soccer stadium seemed poised to land in Minneapolis, Major League Soccer and Minnesota United were intent on a series of tax breaks that only state lawmakers could approve.
"For the stadium to be exempt from property tax, the legislature has to approve that," Meister said. "So that's why we're encouraging people to come to the town hall."
Wait a second, there's another group inviting taxpayers to call their lawmakers, and they are — Minnesota United.
The stadium page of the team's website states:
"Minnesota United plans to build a soccer-specific stadium in the Twin Cities as part of the move to MLS — investing $250 million into the state of Minnesota and the metro area. The club is asking for ZERO TAX DOLLARS for construction of the soccer-specific stadium. The United ownership group is committed to partnering with local policymakers to optimize stadium development to improve the metro area.
If you support a soccer-specific stadium in Minnesota, let your policymakers know. Call, email or write Minnesota Governor Mark Dayton and Minnesota Caucus Leaders Thomas Bakk and Kurt Daudt today.
Click here to download a PDF flyer with full contact information."
St. Paul, of course, isn't the only city that has been named as a potential stadium location. While a Minneapolis-specific stadium proposal has had its stumbles, land near the Minnesota Twins ballpark was the team's original choice.
It's probably worth noting that the team has not taken down an April 21 announcement asking fans to contact lawmakers and push for a stadium in the Minneapolis West Loop.

Week 26 -18. Hidden from View
We were visiting Ewell Court House and I was busy with my camera getting some pictures for the Themes. We were approached by a gentleman who told us a bit of the history of the House.
In the Guide it says "Ewell Court House started its life over 300 years ago. In 1790, as Avenue House, it was used by the Bridges family, owner of the gunpowder mills situated along the Hogsmill River, to house their managers.
In 1875, after the mills had closed, John Henry Bridges commissioned a programme of extension and modernisation to create a house suitable for a Victorian gentleman with a young bride.
After the death of his father in 1892 John Henry undertook further building works to create a house suitable for entertaining. That house remains today.
Eventually, with 9 children and up to six servants, space was at a premium. In 1900 the rear extension, which now accommodates the Public Library, was added. (We were told Mr Bridges did not like the noise the older children made! Seems some things do not change.)
The Bridges family sold Ewell Court House in 1920 to the Stoddart family who remained in residence until 1935 when, with the majority of the grounds already sold for housing development, it was sold to Epsom and Ewell Borough Council.
During World War 11 the house was used as a centre for Civil Defence. A large underground air-raid shelter remains.
Today it is the centre of the Ewell Court community, used for social activities, weddings and parties."
He also told us about a grotto that was found and reclaimed and it is the subject of the image I have chosen for the above theme.
He was the Chairman of Ewell Court House Organisation (ECHO) which was started by local residents in 2003 to oppose the Council's plans to dispose of the House for conversion to residential use. They were successful and today ECHO have promoted community events including Open Air Carols at Christmas, an Ice Rink, Craft fairs, Concerts and entertainments. They have raised funds to preserve features such as the island in the middle of the lake which is a breeding ground for ducks, geese and swans. There is a cinema club opening soon so lots going on which we were unaware of. There is a Library and Clinic on site and a charming Garden Nursery and cafe.
The grotto hidden from view.

Marc VDS are facing a race against time to put together a package that could see Scott Redding return to the team on a Factory Honda in MotoGP next year.
Redding is spending an impressive rookie season on an Open class Honda at Gresini. The young Englishman was then due to take over the team's RC213V, currently used by Alvaro Bautista, in 2015.
But Gresini are facing funding issues regarding next year's Factory Honda and are also in talks with Aprilia about becoming its official MotoGP team.
It is against that backdrop that the Marc VDS squad, currently dominating the Moto2 World Championship, is seeking to acquire the Gresini RC213V and run Redding themselves.
Redding spent all four of his Moto2 seasons with Marc VDS, finishing title runner-up in 2013. At Silverstone on Saturday, Crash.net spoke to team principal and Redding's personal manager Michael Bartholemy on Saturday at Silverstone.
"It has to be this weekend," replied Bartholemy, when asked about a deadline.
"I'm always optimistic... It is in our hands," he added, indicating that the deal does not depend on the decision of any other teams.
But the big sticking point is securing funding at such short notice.
"The [RC213V] costs the same for me as for other people," Bartholemy explained. "For me it is not important what the bike costs, the important thing is the amount that we are [currently] short. This is the biggest thing at the moment."
It is not just the cost of the official Honda machinery, but also the additional expenses that come with a 'new' entry. "Yes... but it is normal. It's the same for everybody and we have to accept it."
Bartholemy would not state exactly how short they are, only that: "You can tell the British public that we need some help to put the best British rider on a Factory bike.
"Even Marc [Marquez] has said, 'the only British guy who can do something is Scott Redding. He beat me in Moto2'."
"There are a lot of rumours but I think that your guys know more about it than I do! My priority is to stay here at Gresini because we've done a great job this year and I think that we can do a great job next year as well.
"But my main priority is to be on a Factory [Honda] and if they can't give that to me I'll have to consider my options, because I need to keep going in my career and make podiums. It would be nice to stay here, they're a nice team and they've really supported me this year."
As well as Gresini and Marc VDS, present Honda-backed teams Aspar and LCR are also sure to be interested in the fourth 2015 RC213V.
But would Redding consider staying at Gresini if they become the official Aprilia team?
"Probably not, it's a Factory bike but it's not competitive. If it's the last thing then I'll have to consider it, but my priority is to have a Factory Honda."
Redding will start his home British MotoGP from twelfth on the grid, as the top Open class Honda.
UPDATE: HRC has extended the deadline for ordering the RC213V by two weeks, until Misano.

I decided to put together a video about making "Homemade Manure" (with the hidden agenda of seeing how many times I could make lame "guns of steel" jokes in a single video – haha!).
For those of you who are not familiar with the term, "Homemade Manure" is basically just a special mix (every batch is different) of bedding and pulverized food waste. It has been working VERY well in my Worm Inn (have used it for the last couple of feedings), with the worms really diving right in. When I first started making it (a couple of years ago, if I remember correctly) I used a blender, but it took forever! Now I just throw everything in a big bucket (Rubbermaid plastic garbage can to be exact) and beat it up and mix it with various tools.
As I mention in the video, something that occurred to me is that this would be a great way to get material ready for a new worm bin as well. I might suggest increasing the bedding-to-food ratio in that case, but same basic idea – and this way you wouldn't really need to wait around for a week or two before adding the worms.
Question: Do you still need to cover the contents of this homemade manure with cardboard or shredded paper to keep down the smell etc. in the Worm Inn?
I'd like to offer the suggestion to anyone who does "juicing" if they haven't thought of it already. The pulp from the juice machine is a great composting and worm food. It's mostly carrot, celery, cucumber and apple. I feed my worms once or twice a week and they're thriving.
NANETTE – In the case of the stuff I've been adding to the Worm Inn, yeah it's not a bad idea to cover it since it's pretty rich stuff. If you up the proportion of bedding you mix in (if you are planning to create a full habit and food all-in-one, for example) you might not really need to cover it.
NANCY – Great advice. I too am a juicer and have been using all that pulp (often as-is) for worm food as well.
Bentley, great site. I think I'm getting close to the end of reading all your content, so I'm starting to go through it all again. I learn something new every single day.
My bin is 3.5 weeks old and I added 2 lbs. of red worms 1 week ago. I aged the bin as you recommended and I didn't start with the homemade manure ("HM"). Until yesterday, I hadn't added any new food since adding the worms, I didn't want to overload the system since it was new. I whipped up a fresh batch of HM, I didn't weigh it, but I would guess it was roughly 2 lbs. or so. First, I let the scraps sit for a few days, then froze and thawed them, then mixed in cardboard until it was no longer dripping wet. Well, the worms haven't started on it yet, but I suppose once the microbes colonize it, the worms will follow.
How long does it takes for the microbes to get into it? My guess is immediately, and they probably reproduce very quickly under these conditions.
The HM is heating up the side of the bin where I put it, can it get too hot and harm the worms? I suppose they can just move away from it. Also, the heat is a sign the microbes are chomping down, correct?
Should I have used a more scientific method for the amount of cardboard I add versus the food scraps than just adding cardboard until the HM was no longer sopping wet? My concern here is that I added too much nitrogen rich material and the HM will get too hot. The rest of the bin is primarily cardboard and newspaper.
Would it be better to spread the HM around evenly? Would that prevent it from heating up so much, or does it even matter?
How long does it usually take for the HM to settle and start to cool down? A few days?
If your worms could handle the heat generated from your overfeeding challenge, then mine can certainly handle 2 lbs. of HM. I guess I'm just a nervous new parent here, right?
Microbes should get into HMM very quickly, but still you may see some lag time before the worms are interested in it.
If it heats up that could cause issues in an enclosed plastic bin, especially if ambient temps are pretty hot already. You may want to leave the lid off during the day just to provide a bit more air flow.
Heat is indeed created via aerobic microbial activity – so a good sign.
I use the non scientific approach you mentioned and it seems to work just fine! Science is great, but don't let it get in the way of just trying this out and making progress. It's never a bad idea to err on the side of too much bedding though.
Spreading the material around should definitely reduce heating (and lessen potential for anaerobic pockets developing). Heating doesn't matter too much as long as it doesnt get too hot for the worms. So if it's a small enclosed system DO be careful with the amount added at once. If larger, open system you can get away with a lot more.
Time until cooling will totally depend on the amount you add and the C:N ratio of the mix.
Sounds like I'm on the right track. Thanks for the reply, it was very helpful.
I'm using a 14 gallon rubbermaid container (24″x16″x12.5″), although I'm not nearly using all of that volume. I put plenty of air vents on the sides and a few on the bottom as you suggested. The bin is indoors, so the ambient temperature stays around 71 degrees F.
I can't seem to keep from digging around and checking things out, which definitely increases airflow. Would it be better for the worms to leave it be? Or is stirring it up fine?
The worms would likely prefer to not be disturbed, but they are also very tolerant.
I mixed my worm food like this. I placed my mixture into the card board egg cartons. So when I feed them I just break off some bowls of food let them thaw and place it in the bin.
I notice in the video you use shredded cardboard. Do you have any suggestions on an fast, efficient way to shred cardboard?
Hi Herbie – unfortunately I do not. Soaking it in water first definitely helps though.
A friend of mine tells me he's had good success with a very serious paper shredder (25 sheet I think), but I've never tested this out for myself.
There are various pieces of heavy machinery that would likely work as well – various chippers, hammer mills etc.
I myself am still looking for the perfect small-scale solution!
– Are there particular cardboards to use/avoid? I assume that toilet paper rolls are fine, but I only have so many of those ;o). What about like, office depot shipping boxes? or the boxes that reams of paper come in?
– For newspaper, does it matter if it has color printing on it, or should it be black and white only?
– For papertowels, as long as they are pretty much used for drying hands, is that ok?
– Also, can you use used kleenex/tissue? I produce a lot of that whenever I get a cold ;o).
– A friend of mine keeps rabbits. If I ask for some of her rabbit poop, what is the proper way to age the manure, or should I not bother asking for it?
Oh yeah, as a follow up question to my post above, would it be safe to use castings in my food garden if I add rabbit poop to the worm bin?
I've had a lot of success with HMM. I've also got some horse manure quite recently as well. The Euro's I have love HMM. They swarm it immediatly.
can pete be used in place coco fiber?

A Retro-Futuristic, Glowy LED Ring
A videogame about the difficulties of developing a videogame
Development Hell: The Video Game @ Polygon
The wearisome nuances of programming are fairly obvious, but "The Magic Circle" also focuses on the creative aspect of development. It explores the unavoidable problems that arise when a variety of different game makers try to reconcile their distinct visions.
You see black and white environments that look like placeholder art, and you play by running around and editing creatures' abilities like a game designer would. Early on, you come across a dog-like creature called a Howler who has been programmed to attack you, so a simple solution to avoid getting hurt is to edit the Howler's abilities to make it your friend instead of your enemy (as seen in the tutorial video below). As the game goes on, you learn you can program the Howler to attack other creatures, you can earn special abilities, you can program other creatures and you can combine the abilities and creatures in creative ways.
It looks like a first-person action game, but you don't shoot a gun or swing a weapon — you program other creatures to do the work for you. It's more about solving puzzles than it is about combat. The idea is to give players a surface-level feeling of what it's like to be a game designer.
Then there's another layer to the game with a more direct commentary on game development — as you play through the game-within-the-game, you can hear its fictional developers talking in the background. It feels like you're sitting at a desk in a development studio playing their game while you overhear them talking about each other and their design choices.
The game they're making has been in development for many years with no end in sight, analogous to something like Duke Nukem Forever, or perhaps, BioShock Infinite. And the team can't seem to commit to decisions, so the main character is simply "The Hero" rather than someone with a name or even a gender.

MAKE ONE WITH YOUR FAMILY TODAY!
Do you know how to escape from your home during a fire or other emergency? Creating a family plan is one of the most important things you can do. Watch the above video and find out how easy it is to prepare before an emergency.
Download this PDF (Click for English Version) (Click for Spanish Version) – and use it to draw a map of your home. Then follow these 10 easy escape plan tips.
The first step in escaping a fire is know there is a fire. That's what a smoke alarm will do for you. Make sure to change the batteries in your smoke detectors twice a year when you change the clocks – Spring Ahead, Fall Back.
Doors make great fire barriers! It takes fire 10 – 15 minutes to burn through a wooden door. Those 10 – 15 minutes could save your life. So make sure bedroom doors are closed while people are sleeping.
Everyone in your house should visit each bedroom and figure out two escape routes from that room.
Make a map of your home. Download this PDF (Click for English Version) (Click for Spanish Version) – the family escape plan grid to begin. Plan your escape route with TWO WAYS OUT. Learn how to open windows (especially ones with bars on them). Make sure everyone in your family knows your escape routes.
People who die or are injured in house fires are usually not burned. They're hurt by the smoke a fire creates. Smoke and heat rise when a fire burns, so the best place to find fresher, cooler air is near the floor. When a person is caught in a building filled with smoke, they should drop on hands and knees and crawl to the nearest exit.
Test all closed doors before opening them. Put the back of your hand near the crack of a closed door. If you feel heat, DON'T OPEN IT. This is your fire break. Use your second way out to escape. If the door is not hot, open it slowly but be prepared to close it again if you see flames or heavy smoke.
A special meeting place should be established a safe distance from the house. It could be a mailbox, the neighbor's driveway, a street sign on the corner, or a building across the street. Whatever it is, it must be something that is stationary and won't be moved (such as a car). This is where everyone meets in the event of a fire. It also prevents family members from wandering around the neighborhood looking for one another, or worse, being tempted to re-enter the burning house for someone thought to be trapped inside.
Choose your safe meeting place TODAY. Make sure everyone in your home knows it.
8 – Practice Your Fire Escape Plan it's fun!
Once your plan is made, it's time to practice. Do this often. At different times during the day, especially at night, when house fires are far more likely.
Position each family member in his or her bed, turn all the lights off, and activate the smoke detector by depressing the test switch. Each family member should help "awaken" the others by yelling the alert. Family members should exit their rooms according to the plan, crawl low under smoke, practice feeling doors for heat, and meet in the designated location outside the home.
Pets are a part of your family, so make sure you include them in your plan and in your practice sessions!
Once outside at the special meeting place, a person can be sent to the neighbor's to call 9-1-1. If anyone is missing, give that information to the fire department immediately and tell them where the probable location of the missing person could be. Under no circumstances should anyone re-enter the burning building.
Dangle – Jumping from upper floors of a building should be your last alternative. However, it is possible to hang from a second story window and drop feet first to the ground without significant injury. A sprained ankle or broken leg is better than staying in a burning building.
Ladders – Home owners can purchase fire ladders for second-floor bedrooms, or instruct children to use an adjacent porch or garage roof to await rescue by the fire department.
No Elevators – When exiting such a multi-story structure, do not use the elevator. Elevators often stop working in the event of a fire, trapping people inside. The result can be deadly. A power failure may cause them to stop in between floors as well. Use the fire escape or an enclosed fire resistive stairwell to exit a high-rise building.
Explore! – As a family, explore the building you live in, so that every exit is familiar, including those from storage, laundry and recreation rooms. If the hallways become smoke-filled as the result of a fire, memory can help in finding the exits. Practicing emergency escape plans is crucial to helping you and your family remain calm and confident during an actual emergency.

Team Rider Profiles
Youth/Juniors
Race Disciplines
In December 2016, Verulam CC formed a racing team to provide the infrastructure and team support to nurture and grow talented riders. We have a particular goal of developing our youth riders and supporting them through their racing journey. This team is based in St Albans and from early 2017 has been competing successfully in mens and womens regional, national and international events, at all ages from youths through to veterans. The team is co-sponsored by Verulam CC and reallymoving.com. As well as competing, we have also hosted our own British Cycling Central Region road race for the last two years and will do so again in 2019.
The Racing Team assists our racers with coaching (including bespoke training, race preparation, tactics and experienced advice), organisation & planning (what races to ride, leagues, and series), working together as a team (building a good team spirit, celebrating success and generating pride in the team) and with high-quality race clothing. The Racing Team has regular coached team rides and has organised training camps including trips to Spain and Belgium.
In deciding to invest in sponsoring the Racing Team, the VCC club committee are confident that this will help raise the Verulam CC image and profile to new levels. This new team represents Verulam CC, club members & fellow cyclists, and our sponsors, putting something back into the sport and in particular, creating a pathway for the next generation. We feel great pride seeing our riders achieving success in the racing world and knowing that all the club's support has played a key part in making it happen.

I have too many ideas swirling around in my head that usually when I finish the first draft of something I decide to go ahead and start on the next project.
The upside to this is that it keeps me writing. I rarely come across writer's block and I always feel accomplished when I finish another first draft of a novel.
The downside to this is that I never fully finish anything. I never really get to the editing part.
Editing is hard and there are sometimes when I try to avoid it at all costs. I have to be in the mood to edit. Yet, when I do edit, it turns into proofreading and I make notes of what I should edit for the "next draft." So I essentially just put it off until the last minute.
So that's what I meant when I said that I have a lot of editing to do. I never actually do it.
George Florence – A mystery novel. I'm deep in the editing stages of this one. I've been writing, editing, and rewriting this novel since November 2013. This is the book I hope to publish sometime in the near future. The editing has been going well overall, but there's a lot to it (as this is one book one of a series) so it makes my head spin. I've not only been just editing this one but trying to plan the other books as well to make sure the timeline matches up. I'm hoping to start querying this novel come January 2017.
The Lost Girl – A fantasy, Peter Pan retelling. I wrote this novel for Camp NaNoWriMo in April 2016. While there are 50,000 words into it, the story itself isn't fully complete and I know I'm going to have my editing cut out for me. My ultimate goal for this novel is for it to be edited and published to Wattpad by June 2017.
Hunter – A fantasy novel. I started this novel for Camp NaNoWriMo in July 2015 and finished it during July's 2016 Camp. This is book one of a trilogy and I originally wrote the very first draft (the novel is much different now) for NaNoWriMo November 2011. I have no real deadline for this novel since the other two are my priority at the moment, but once George Florence is edited and being queried, I'll most likely start getting real serious about this novel.
Take Over – A young adult novel. I wrote this standalone novel a long time ago. It's always been in the back of my mind to complete the editing stage and publish it. Again, I have no real deadline for this one because I want to work on the other novels first, but this there in case I need a break from the others. Eventually, I would like to get this published. Maybe I'll even self-publish it to get my foot in the door.
Editing is a lot and is tough. So to take a break from that and to keep on writing, I'll be working on short stories in the meantime. I need quick stories for my Short Story Sunday feature and would also like to submit to contests and magazines.
So that's where my work stands at the moment. There are plenty of other novels I would love to work on and beginning writing, but I think I have my work cut out for me at the moment.
Lol, yes. These projects are the ones I've worked on the most and are almost done. The others… There's too many to count.
Good luck! Sounds like you've got your hands full! If you ever feel the need to have your work translated… yes, I'm plugging myself shamelessly, though I'm by no means a professional (yet..) That said, if my first proper translating gig goes well, I'll definitely try to do more of it!
Camp NaNo interests me, but I don't think I could ever do it. I have trouble finishing short stories as it is. Right now, I have this short story that I've been working on for over a month. The sad thing about it is that so far, it's only four pages long. It's ridiculous to be working on a story that short. But it is what it is. Eventually, I want to finish this story and start on something new.
You can change your word count for Camp NaNo. You can do 10,000 words as opposed to 50,000.
I definitely wish you luck, but then, doesn't one make his/her own luck?
Hm. In some circumstances, I guess we do.
Better too many books in progress than none! They all sound great and I agree the editing is a challenge and can get boring. Keep at it – all your WIPS sound fantastic! When you think you are at a finish point – let someone else edit!

I could not believe my eyes when i saw the number of questions i could practice on before giving the actual 1Z0-808 certificate exam. I am a little lazy when it comes to preparing for the exam. But this time i was pretty sure that i will give my cent percent to the 1Z0-808 syllabus. What i did was i used to study the syllabus through a topic or two. And then give a full mock test online. These mock tests being simulated helped me understand the format. It also made me design my approach for the actual exam.


A spicy superfood take on a game day classic perfect for your next party.
2Pierce each sweet potato with a fork multiple times. Place directly on oven rack that is positioned in the center of the oven. Bake for 55 minutes.
3While the potatoes are baking, prepare your toppings by first cooking the bacon (I used microwave method to make easiest). Next, move on to other toppings by cutting and mashing the avocado and chopping the green onion.
4Once the sweet potatoes have baked for 55 minutes, let them cool for 15 minutes and turn the oven up to 450 degrees. Once cooled enough, slice each potato in half – long ways. Scoop out about half of the inside of each potato half and place on lightly greased baking sheet. On each scooped half, top with a drizzle of hot sauce, a sprinkle of paprika and a sprinkle of chili flakes. (Amounts above are approximate to your preference). Place in oven for 15 minutes until skins come to a subtle crisp.
5Let the potato skins cool for 15 minutes. Top each off with avocado mash, plain greek yogurt, chopped bacon, green onion, cheddar and additional dashes of paprika and chili flake.
Plain greek yogurt is a high protein/lower fat substitution for sour cream. Amounts of each topping may slightly vary depending on your taste and exact sweet potato size.

The 1941 NCAA basketball tournament involved eight schools playing in single-elimination play to determine the national champion of men's NCAA college basketball. It began on March 21, 1941, and ended with the championship game on March 29 in Kansas City, Missouri. A total of nine games were played, including a third place game in both regions.

Wisconsin, coached by Bud Foster, won the national title with a 39–34 victory in the final over Washington State, coached by Jack Friel. John Kotz of Wisconsin was named the tournament's Most Outstanding Player.

Locations
The following are the sites selected to host each round of the 1941 tournament:

Regionals

March 21 and 22
East Regional, Wisconsin Field House, Madison, Wisconsin
West Regional, Municipal Auditorium, Kansas City, Missouri

Championship Game

March 29
Municipal Auditorium, Kansas City, Missouri

For the second straight year, the Municipal Auditorium hosted both the West Regional games and the Championship game, making it the first arena to repeat as host. The East Regional was held on a different college campus for the third straight year, this time at the University of Wisconsin in Madison. This marked the first of two times the Wisconsin Field House hosted games, and first of three times the University has, hosting at its replacement, the Kohl Center, in 2002.

Many years ago, I believed if I just had enough counseling I could overcome my dysfunction and be a normal person. Now don't get me wrong, I strongly believe in therapy. And when you come from severe dysfunction, sometimes it's your only hope. But it's not like taking a pill when you have an infection. Therapy doesn't just make it all go away.
And who wants to get counseling when it forces you to look at yourself. For in that looking, you see all the ways you self-destruct your own life and those around you.
For most of my adult life, I've fought against my own dysfunction. To know me, is to know my struggle. I'm outspoken, controlling, and driven to get my own way. And I don't struggle in silence. I tend to openly reveal my battles, and I expect others to do the same. To me, intimacy involves a deep down sharing of the wars that rage inside us. I believe it's where I begin to understand you and you begin to understand me.
And in that understanding, deep relationships bloom. For if I know the source of your struggle, and I see you fighting against it, I can respect you. I can join you in your fight. And cheer you on to victory.
It's true, the closer someone is, the greater they can hurt you. That's always the risk. Let someone in, and the pain door flings wide open. But when I know your challenges, it makes it easier for me to apply grace.
On the flip side, I don't share my struggles so other's can use them against me. I don't reveal them as fuel for someone to build up their own distorted view of themselves.
Over the years, many well-meaning folks have tried to fix me. I guess it goes with the territory of having a soap opera caliber life. Perhaps it makes them feel better to help a sloppy soul like mine. But their pity makes me feel worthless. I wanted friendship, but it was clear that was never their goal.
It's so cliché to say life is not fair. But there's no phrase that says it better. I celebrate those who had great childhoods. It's wonderful your dad invested in you or your mom was the model for June Cleaver. Maybe you're not a self-saboteur like me. But I'd almost bet you struggle with pride.
That's what's so great about Christ. He never let anyone off the hook. We all have something to own in this great big battle against sin. And our only job is to turn around and take a look at ourselves. Examine our own hearts. It's all there waiting for us to unravel.
But there's nothing like great friends who are willing to chug alongside us as we face the worst parts of ourselves.
I'm Selfish – How About You?
For my entire adult life, she's never been more than a phone call away. And call her I did. She was the first to learn Daniel was arrested. The first one told Tim had cancer. Over the phone we celebrated all my life's accomplishments. And we cried over all my challenges.
For the past 50 some years, I've spent hours pouring my heart out to her, knowing she'd not only understand, but also give me a perspective to help me to grow.
So it's hard to watch Aunt Jeanne Marie struggle with dementia. It's hard to adjust when she forgets who she's talking to. It's painful when she knows it. And when she gets upset, my heart aches.
Aging is hard. And to think my whole life it's gone on around me. But in the selfishness of my youth, I've looked the other way. I wasn't around as my grandparent's aged. And both my parent's died relatively young. So much of this journey is new to me.
But I've been calloused toward the aging. I've not noticed their struggle, or been mindful that I could possibly help.
I guess it's human nature, or maybe it's our youth obsessed culture. We enter this world with guns a blazing. We wail like mad at the first hint of our need. We're like the two-year-old on the toilet when an earthquake rumbles who asks his mother, "What did I do?" We would never say it out loud, but we do think the world revolves around us.
But God has a way of pulling us back in. Of reminding us there's a reason the weak shall inherit the earth. That deep down satisfaction comes when we give ourselves away. That self-centeredness is the fastest route to self-destruction. Aging has a way of bringing it all back around. Of teaching us how helpless we really are.
I cherish my Aunt Jeanne Marie. And to me, she will always be that 30 something beauty that stepped into my life after my father died. And I don't care if today she thinks I'm her sister Josephine, or that Uncle Eugene is Uncle Lewis. I'll just roll with it for as long as she's willing to talk.
For my hope lies in the truth that God is in the business of making all things new. And for those of us who put our trust in Christ, we will all get new bodies. And one day, there will be a new heaven and a new earth. But in the mean time, God is preparing a place for my Aunt Jeanne Marie. A place with no more tears, no more death, and no more dying.
And to that I say, come Lord Jesus, come.

Real Estate Litigation Representative Matters
View Real Estate Representation Representative Matters
Represented a national bank in the foreclosure and sale of several properties.
Successfully defended a property management company with communities across Texas in a repair and remedies case brought by a tenant.
Pursuing claims on behalf of a shopping mall developer in The Woodlands, Texas, for breach of a commercial lease. The unsuccessful tenant abandoned the property and attempted to terminate the lease on the basis that the landlord did not provide sufficient parking.
Pursued claims on behalf of a developer for breach of a contract following its attempt to purchase a piece of real estate. The client executed an agreement to purchase the property with an agent for the seller, but was then informed that the property's tenant had exercised its right of first refusal to purchase the property. Our client subsequently learned that the seller backed out of the sale with the tenant and our client sought to enforce its original purchase agreement. The seller argued that the agent who brokered the deal did not have authority to execute the agreement with our client. The parties settled the lawsuit on favorable terms to our client.
Defending a technology managed services firm against claims for breach of a commercial lease. Pursuing counterclaims against the landlord for constructive eviction because the client was forced to abandon the lease as a result of recurring roof leaks. The roof leaks caused mold and mildew to grow and prevented employees from being able to work from the office.
Obtained summary judgment on all claims asserted by commercial landlord following material breach and termination of commercial real estate lease.
Representing a real estate trust that owns, develops, and operates shopping malls in various capacities. Representation includes addressing, bonding around, and invalidating materialmen and mechanics' liens and resolving disputes with tenants over fees, leasing payments, nuisance allegations, and more.

The seller executed the contract for sale to the developer, but refused to close the sale, claiming the agent that brokered the deal did not have authority to negotiate on its behalf.
Currently representing a chemical refinery in a dispute with its general contractor over a failed project to expand and renovate the refinery's facility. In addition to allegations of breach of contract and fraud, the dispute has resulted in liens filed by subcontractors against my client, which have been efficiently settled.

Cigarettes is an active item.
Damages the player for half a heart. If the player has armor, the damage will remove the armor.
Increases Coolness by 1 per use, decreasing the cooldown of active items and increasing the chance of items dropping upon clearing a room. The coolness bonus will remain for the entire run, even if the Cigarettes are removed from the player's inventory.
Discarded cigarettes will light oil puddles.
Iroquois - If the player has MAC10, the MAC10's reload time is decreased by 33%, magazine size is increased by 50%, and knockback is increased by 50%.
What A Thrill - If the player has Patriot, Patriot has a chance to transmogrify enemies into snakes.
Dying to Cigarettes will produce "Smoking" as a cause of death.
The description is most likely a reference to cigarettes from the Metal Gear series.
If the player has Crisis Stone, Cigarettes can be used without taking damage while reloading, allowing the player to gain an infinite amount of coolness.
If the player has Knight's Gun and Holey Grail, they can generate infinite armor and health, also allowing the player to get infinite coolness.
If the player uses Cigarettes inside a boss room, they will still be able to get the master round. This can be used when out of blanks to abuse the invulnerability frame after taking damage, but obviously requires excess health.
Unused: Coffee & Cigarettes - If the player has Shotgun Coffee, it causes an unknown effect.

Maria Christina Röhl
Artist, portrait painter
Maria Röhl was an artist who produced portraits of members of Swedish society and the cultural elite during the 1800s.
Maria Röhl was born in 1801. She grew up at Skönstavik near Stockholm. She was the second child in a family of five sisters. Her father, Jakob Elias Röhl, had served as consul in the Swedish colony of St Barthélemy where, as rumour had it, he had become wealthy through the slave trade. Maria Röhl was given an education appropriate to her social standing. This included drawing, which was taught in the family home by the architect and portrait artist Alexander Hambré.
Following the death of her father in 1822 Maria Röhl went to live with relatives in Värmland. In 1823 she arrived in Stockholm seeking employment as a governess. She obtained a post in the home of Christian Forssell, the engraver to the royal court. Upon noticing her artistic talent he felt she should make use of it. On Christmas Eve 1823 he invited Maria Röhl via an 'anonymous' letter to stay on as his student. She accepted this invitation with great delight and thereby gained not only an influential teacher and mentor but also a new home and new family through Forssell's wife and four children, who included her in their everyday lives as well as in their social lives.
Maria Röhl's training with Christian Forssell – who was also a professor at Konstakademien (the Royal Swedish Academy of Fine Arts) – involved not just drawing and making models, but also making copies of famous artistic originals. Maria Röhl tested out her stippling and copper plating skills but quickly found greater success with Conté crayons and pencil work. Her talent for being able to quickly capture a person's likeness in portraits came to the fore and the social scene of the Stockholm bourgeoisie provided her with a large pool of potential clients.
Christian Forssell used his experience and network of contacts to help Maria Röhl become an established portrait artist. Her account book notes her first commission in 1827. That same year she was given the prestigious commission to make a portrait of the princess Sofia Albertina. This royal recognition of her talent subsequently opened many doors for her. Three years later she opened her own studio on Kungsholmen.
Maria Röhl was well-known for her good sense of humour and for her social skills. These were abilities which helped her to gain customers whom she often befriended for life. Her reputation extended beyond Stockholm and soon she was travelling around the countryside producing portraits at various estates and in towns like Linköping, Västerås, and Gothenburg. Many of those within the wealthier social classes could afford to have portraits made of their whole family for an agreed price. They thereby gained an item displaying their social status by keeping up with the trend and by being part of the 'right' circles.
Maria Röhl's portraits of several of the cultural celebrities of her day contributed to the fame she enjoyed during her lifetime and ensured her place within cultural history. Some of these portraits included the likes of Fredrika Bremer, Erik Gustaf Geijer, Wendela Hebbe, Malla Silfverstolpe, and Esaias Tegnér, to name just a few. The latter referred to Maria Röhl as "konstmön" (the lady artist) and, in 1827, he penned a poem called "Konstens genius" in her honour.
Maria Röhl was a professional and successful career woman at a time when gender roles were heavily segregated. She had secretly become engaged when Christian Forssell issued his invitation to become his student, and she once again became engaged in her 30s. However, she never did marry. As a single woman she not only provided an income for herself but sometimes also provided for the Forssell family when they fell upon hard times in the late 1820s.
The popularity of Maria Röhl's portraits reached peak level during the 1840s. Her success was confirmed in 1843 as that year she was awarded the title of painter to the royal court and she was also elected into Konstakademien, where she had been 'agrée' (recognised) since 1827. Having ascertained her success in Sweden she turned her eyes toward Europe. She undertook her first sojourn abroad in 1849 and travelled to Paris, where she stayed for the whole summer learning to paint in oils at Jean-François Brémond's studio. Her next foreign trip was to Great Britain, in 1851, where she mainly spent time in London and Liverpool.
Christian Forssell died in the autumn of 1852 following a brief illness. His household then broke up. In the spring of 1853 Maria Röhl returned to Paris, becoming a student once again albeit now aged 52. She remained in the French capital for three years. She spent much of that time in Léon Cogniet's studio and at the Louvre, where she made copies of a large number of works in pastels. She attempted to transfer her newly-discovered skills to her portraiture but was never able to achieve the same success with pastels that she had found with Conté crayons. Her attempts at working in oils were not well-received by the public or by art critics.
When Maria Röhl returned to Stockholm in the summer of 1856 she settled at the Brunkeberg hotel. Several of her fellow artists lived there and ran their studios there. As the new art of photography began to emerge in the early 1860s commissions for portraits decreased in number. Maria Röhl was still able to live comfortably off the income of her previous success. During the 1870s she added to her earnings by other means, such as producing copies of other artists' works, painting screens, and renovating paintings.
Maria Röhl worked right up to the end of her life. When she died in 1875 she left a collection of 1 779 pencil drawings, which were the sketches for the portraits she produced in Conté crayons and then sold to her clients. Kungliga biblioteket (the royal library) purchased the collection a few months after her death. All of her portraits are accessible on the library database called LIBRIS. Her drawings are still highly sought-after and still relevant nearly 150 years after her death.
Maria Röhl's artistic output allows current researchers to study not just the history of art and individual life stories, but also sociology, ethnology, and the history of clothing. With her sharp eye for detail Maria Röhl was able to depict clothes and hairstyles with great attention. Her collection has rightly been called a panoramic overview of the development of fashion from the 1830s to the 1860s, and as such serves as a goldmine for those interested in the history of fashion.

19th century Artists


God chose Moses to lead Israel out of Egypt. Pharaoh and the Egyptians would see the power of God through the 10 plagues and other events in Exodus 7-12.
When God told Moses to return to Egypt, Moses must have been afraid. He had left Egypt in fear of being killed by Pharaoh. He now had a wife and two sons. He probably wondered how his brother, Aaron, and the others would treat him. He had been raised as an Egyptian. Now he would be the leader of the Israelites.
In spite of his concerns, Moses returned to Egypt. He gathered all the elders of Israel together, including Aaron, his brother. He told them, "God is going to deliver you out of Egypt." This must have brought joy to the people of God when they heard this good news!
Moses was about 80 years old, and his brother Aaron was about 83 years old at this time (Exodus 7:7).
Aaron threw down his rod before Pharaoh. God made it become a snake. Pharaoh called his wise men, sorcerers and magicians. Every man threw down his rod, and they became snakes. But Aaron's rod was more powerful and swallowed up their rods!
Moses then warned Pharaoh that the river would turn into blood if he refused to let Israel go.
Aaron struck the river. It immediately turned into blood. The Egyptians could not drink the water. All the fish died, and the river smelled bad. The river was like this for seven days.
Next frogs came up and covered the land of Egypt. They were everywhere—in their homes, beds, ovens and dishes. Pharaoh said he would let the people go. Then God destroyed all the frogs, and only those in the river were left. But Pharaoh changed his mind.
Next came the plague of lice, which were all over the people and animals. Everyone was miserable. Still, Pharaoh would not let them go.
After that God sent swarms of flies covering the people, food, houses and the ground. Egypt was covered with flies everywhere, but the Israelites had no flies near them or their homes. Again Pharaoh would not let Israel go.
Next Moses warned Pharaoh that God would send a severe disease to kill their livestock. The next day Egypt's flocks died. But Pharaoh did not let God's people go.
God then sent many boils on every person and animal in Egypt. These boils broke out into sores so painful the people could not even stand up. Still Pharaoh did not obey God.
The next day giant hail struck throughout Egypt. All the people and animals still in the field died. The hail struck every plant and broke down every tree. There was no hail in the land of Goshen, where the children of Israel lived.
"It is enough," Pharaoh said. "I will let you go." But after the hail stopped, Pharaoh changed his mind and wouldn't let them go.
Then came the plague of locusts. They covered the land so heavy that it became dark. They ate every plant and all the fruit of the trees that the hail had left. There were no green leaves left on the trees and the plants.
Pharaoh called for Moses and Aaron and said he was sorry. But after the locusts were gone, Pharaoh again changed his mind and wouldn't let Israel go.
Next came the plague of darkness. God said to Moses, "Stretch out your hand; there will be darkness all over Egypt." Darkness settled upon Egypt, and the Egyptians couldn't see anything for three days. They couldn't see each other and didn't leave their homes. But the people of Israel had light in their homes and could see.
Before each of these plagues happened, God continued to send Moses and Aaron to warn Pharaoh, saying, "Let My people go." Each time Pharaoh's heart was hardened, and he refused to let Israel leave. Sometimes in the midst of a plague Pharaoh would promise to let Israel go, but afterward he would change his mind.
God knew that the 10th plague would cause Pharaoh such sorrow that he would finally let Israel go free.
Moses called for all the elders of Israel and told them what God wanted them to do next.
"Each man is to take a lamb without any defects and kill it on the 14th day of the first month at twilight. Paint the blood over the top and two side posts of the doorway of your houses.
"Don't go out of your house till morning. Roast the lamb and eat it quickly with unleavened bread and bitter herbs. Put your shoes on your feet and your staff in your hand. Be ready to leave. This is the Lord's Passover.
At midnight all the firstborn of Egypt died. Pharaoh's firstborn died. There was a great cry and moaning throughout Egypt. In every house someone died.
But not one of God's people died that night.
Israel was finally free to leave Egypt. The people packed up their belongings and gathered all their flocks and herds. They took their bread dough before it had time to rise.
By that night they were ready to leave. They were free to go worship God in the wilderness.
What a time of great joy and celebration for them as they left Egypt with their hands and hearts held high!
When Moses went to Pharaoh and asked him to let Israel leave Egypt, what was Pharaoh's answer?
How many plagues did God strike Egypt with before Pharaoh allowed Israel to go?
Can you name some of the plagues?
What animal did God tell Israel to kill?
What was the blood supposed to cover?
What was going to happen at midnight?
Who is a "firstborn"? Are you a firstborn? If not, who is the firstborn in your family?
How do you think the Israelites felt when they were finally leaving Egypt and were free?

Hungarian coin commemorates 110th Anniversary of Magyar Nemzeti Bank Building and 150th Anniversary of birth of Miksa Róth
November 26, 2015 – Hungary issues a 10,000 forint silver and a 2,000 forint non-ferrous collector coin in celebration of the 110th anniversary of the building of the Magyar Nemzeti Bank as well as the 150th anniversary of the birth of glass painter and mosaic artist Miksa Róth who designed the magnificent glass windows of the Magyar Nemzeti Bank's headquarters.
Hungary / 10,000 HUF / Silver .925 / 24 g / 37 mm / Design: Zoltán Tóth / Mintage: 5,000.
To mark the Magyar Nemzeti Bank building's 110th anniversary, the front of the coin presents an interesting perspective on one of the exterior friezes of the iconic building which still serves today as the headquarters for Hungary's central bank. In celebration of the 150th anniversary of the birth of Miksa Róth, "glass painter and mosaic artist to the Imperial and Royal Court", the back of the coin features the rich Secessionist-style stained glass windows of the Bank's headquarters and a portrait, as interpreted by designer Zoltán Tóth.
Magyar Nemzeti Bank, Budapest.
A New Building for the Austro-Hungarian Bank
The Austro-Hungarian Bank was founded in 1878 after the Compromise, and until the turn of the century its Budapest offices were located at József Nádor tér. It was felt that more representative headquarters were needed and thus a tender was announced for Hungarian and Austrian architects, in accordance with the rules of the Dual Monarchy. A building lot where a reviled prison had once stood was selected by the Austro-Hungarian Bank as the construction site (the other half was slated to house the new Stock Exchange). The jury unanimously chose the plans of Ignác Alpár. Unfortunately, no official plans of the rivals remain, only newspaper articles. Even Alpár's tender plans were only published in 1906 in the periodical "Hungarian Tender Plans".
The headquarters of the central bank was built between 1902 and 1905, under the direction of István Pucher. Almost without exception, the builders, craftsmen, artists, smiths and master joiners working on the project were members of the Steindl guild, headed by Ignác Alpár. The building's rich interior work was done by Károly Sennyei, Béla Markup, István Tóth, Ede Mayer and József Róna. Géza Maróti created the interior statuary work, the wrought-iron work was made in the shop of Ede Alpár, and the interior design of the grand council hall (today Lamfalussy-hall) was by Emil Schrödl. The carved doors were the work of Alajos Michl, and the brass lamp fixtures were made by Rudolf Kissling. Differing slightly from the original plans, the building's stark, robust, monumental façade is a defining element of today's Szabadság tér, along with the Stock Exchange, which was also built according to Alpár's plans.

The Glass Windows by Miksa Róth
Miksa Róth was a respected artist of the Steindl guild and was responsible for the main stair hall and the "Art Nouveau" glass windows in the halls. These massive leaded glass windows harmonise perfectly with the Bank's august interior atmosphere. After World War II, the interior courtyard was built in for functional purposes, and consequently the glass painting symbolizing economy and accounting has been removed, while the remaining stained glass compositions now show their full magnificence with artificial lighting.
Biography of Miksa Róth
Miksa Róth was born on 6 December 1865. His mother and father were both glassworkers and he learned the trade in the family's workshop. He once said that he had not only learned to love glass, he had learned to respect it as a noble material. He perfected his skills in Germany, France and England, also learning the art of mosaics in Italy. He experimented with the use of eozin-glazed elements by Zsolnay and opalescent Tiffany-style glass in mosaics, patented a special type of cementboard for movable mosaics, and developed the free-contour mosaic technology and the method of creating unlit glass mosaics. His work was initially influenced by Historicism, and later by the Secessionist school and art deco (combining these).
In 1885, Miksa Róth founded his "independent glass painting art institute". In addition to the grand mosaic windows of the Magyar Nemzeti Bank, his works are also found in the Parliament building, the Gresham Palace, the Music Academy, the National Archives and at the Benedictine Abbey of Pannonhalma. One of his most important foreign projects was the glass cupola of the Teatro Nacional in Mexico City.
Information on this and other releases is available at the site of the Magyar Nemzeti Bank.
Here you will hear more about the Miksa Róth Memorial House and glass museum in Budapest where you can also watch a movie showing many of Róth's creations.
