FALLOUT: TACTICS
Fallout Game Story
Fallout is set in the timeline which deviated from our own sometime after World War II, and where technology, politics and culture followed a different course. In the 21st century, a worldwide conflict is brought on by global petroleum shortage. Several nations begin warring with one another for the last of non-renewable resources, namely oil and uranium; known as the Resource Wars, fighting begins in April 2052 and ends in 2077. China invades Alaska in the winter of 2066, causing the United States to go to war with China and using Canadian resources to supply their war efforts, despite Canadian complaints.
Eventually, the United States violently annexes Canada in February 2076 and reclaims Alaska nearly a year later. After years of conflict, on October 23, 2077, a global nuclear war occurs. It is not known who strikes first, but in less than a few hours most major cities are destroyed. The effects of the war do not fade for the next hundred years and as a consequence, human society has collapsed leaving only survivor settlements barely able to make out a living in the barren wasteland, while a few live through the occurrence in underground fallout shelters known as Vaults. One of these, Vault 13, is the protagonist's home, where the game begins.
In Vault 13, in 2161 in Southern California, 84 years after the nuclear war. The Water Chip, a computer chip responsible for the water recycling and pumping machinery, breaks. The Vault Overseer tasks the protagonist, the Vault Dweller, with finding a replacement. He or she is given a portable device called the "Pip-Boy 2000" that keeps track of map-making, objectives, and bookkeeping. Armed with the Pip-Boy 2000 and meager equipment, including a small sum of bottle caps which are used as currency in the post-apocalyptic world, the main character is sent off on the quest.
The Vault Dweller is an inhabitant of one of the Vaults. The player can create a custom protagonist or choose to be one of three already available; Albert Cole, a negotiator and charismatic leader, whose background is somewhat in the legal system; Natalia Dubrovhsky, a talented acrobat and intelligent and resourceful granddaughter of a Russian diplomat in the Soviet consulate in Los Angeles, and Max Stone, the largest person in the Vault, known for his strength and stamina but lacking intelligence. Each of the three characters present either a diplomatic, stealthy or combative approach to the game.
The player initially has 150 days before the Vault's water supply runs out. This time-limit can be extended by 100 days if commission merchants in the Hub are sent to give water caravans to Vault 13. Upon returning the chip, the Vault Dweller is then tasked with destroying a mutant army that threatens humanity. A mutant known as "The Master" spreads a genetically engineered Pre-War virus, the "Forced Evolutionary Virus", to convert humanity into a race of "Super Mutants" and bring them together in the "Unity" — his plan for a perfect world. The Vault Dweller must kill him and destroy the military base housing the supply of FEV, thus halting the invasion before it can start.
If the Vault Dweller does not complete both objectives within 500 days, the mutant army will discover Vault 13 and invade it, bringing an end to the game. This time limit is shortened to 400 days if the player divulged Vault 13's location to the water merchants. A cinematic cutscene of mutants overrunning the Vault is shown if the player fails to stop the mutant army within this time frame, indicating the player has lost the game. If the player agrees to join the mutant army, the same cinematic is shown. In version 1.1 of the game, the time-limit for the mutant attack on Vault 13 is delayed from 500 days (or 400 depending) to thirteen years of in-game time, effectively giving the player enough time to do as he or she wishes.
The player can defeat the Master and destroy the Super Mutants' military base in either order. When both threats are eliminated, a cutscene ensues in which the player automatically returns to Vault 13. There, the player is told that he or she has changed too much, that children would want to leave the Vault to emulate his or her actions, and therefore the player's return would negatively influence the citizens of the Vault. Thus, the reward is exile into the desert, for, in the Overseer's eyes, the good of the Vault.
There is an alternate ending in which the Vault Dweller draws a handgun and shoots the Overseer after he or she is told to go into exile. This ending is inevitable if the player has the "Bloody Mess" trait or has acquired significant negative karma throughout the game. It can be triggered if the player initiates combat in the brief time after the Overseer finishes his conversation but before the ending cutscene.

Urwerk can always be counted on to surprise, and its latest UR111C wristwatch is absolutely true to form. Designed by co-founders Felix Baumgartner and Martin Frei, the self-winding UR111C does pretty well everything it can to subvert the traditional wristwatch form, including an analog/digital readout that sits to the side of the case rather than on the face.
In recent years, Urwerk has gained a reputation for designing wristwatches that aspire to be exotic Italian hypercars. Whether it's creating watches with "oil-change" displays, mechanical/electronic hybrid movements, air turbines, rotating displays, or timekeeping linear bars, the company really likes to push the envelope.
For the UR-111C, Urwerk selected a case in steel or gunmetal finish that looks like a cross between a futuristic engine block and an antique radio. There isn't a crown, so winding and setting it is a bit of a poser. It turns out there's a roller set on top of the case that has to be thumbed to wind the watch. As for setting the time, there's a lever on the side of the case that engages the mechanism, which is set by turning the roller back and forth.
But the real party piece is the display. Taking a page from the company's previous CC1 King Cobra watch, the UR-111C has a vertical display set in the near side of the case, allowing the wearer to read the time without having to turn their wrist. Altering the horizontal watch movement to operate the vertical display required an angled transmission with miniature bevel gears, but that's just the start.
The display actually comes in two versions at the same time. The hours and minutes are shown on the corner windows as conical jumping mechanical/digital readouts, but in the middle the minutes are also shown in a retrograde linear display. In other words, there's a rotating cylinder with a colored line marking off the minutes until they reach 60, then springs back to zero and the hour indicator jumps to advance. More than that, the line is slanted as it follows a helix, requiring a very complex mechanism to keep it on track.
As to the seconds, these are visible on the top of the case in a mechanical/digital display using two wheels in 5 and 10 second increments. If the readout seems surprisingly large, that's because it's transmitted to the window using fiber optics, which have a magnifying effect. According to Urwerk, this is an industry first.

Man City told Silva will need time to settle, but Bakayoko tipped to star at Chelsea by Jemerson

Manchester City must give Bernardo Silva time to settle but Tiemoue Bakayoko is perfect for Chelsea, says Monaco defender Jemerson.
The reigning Ligue 1 champions have seen their title-winning squad decimated this summer, with their domestic and European success last season helping to raise the profile of players across the board.
Big money has been brought in from a number of deals, while the exit of Kylian Mbappe to Paris Saint-Germain on deadline day means there is still €180 million to come once his loan switch is made permanent.

Lemar is Monaco's star man… not Mbappe – Jemerson
Many of the others to have departed have headed for England, with Jemerson backing Silva, Bakayoko and Benjamin Mendy to impress in the Premier League and Monaco to cope in their absence.
The Brazilian centre-half told Goal: "I wish all the best for them.
"Of course it takes time to adapt to a new team, a new league and a new country, because it changes a lot and it's a different championship. Bernardo, I think, a little bit more than Bakayoko, because Bakayoko is very strong, tall and has the style of the Premier League.
"Bernardo has an impressive technique, an incredible quality to shoot the ball and dribble, and will be very successful, but needs a little longer time to adapt. But he will do very well and have a lot of success for sure, because he has a huge quality and will be trained by [Pep] Guardiola, who likes his style very much."
He added on Mendy: "It did not influence [the dressing room]. We were sad because he is a very good and talented player. We miss him too because everybody likes him very much.
"I wish him all the best for him in Manchester City. But we also have Jorge who replaces him on the same level"
Jemerson is also convinced that despite all of the summer exits, Monaco will remain competitive in 2017-18 at home and abroad.
He said: "I think the market was a good one. We saw in the Super Cup, in the friendlies and now in Ligue 1, that our team maintained the style of play and the quality, even with the changes in the squad, arrivals and departures of players.
"Now we need to maintain our level of the last season in which we were champions, to fight again for the title and to do well in the Champions League."

Among those set to pose Monaco problems this term will be PSG, following an elaborate summer recruitment drive which delivered not only Mbappe but also a record-breaking €222m deal for Neymar.
Jemerson believes the arrival of his fellow countryman in France is good for the game and insists those at Stade Louis II are not fearful of the challenges they now face.
The 25-year-old added: "It's nice for everyone and for the league to have Neymar at PSG. It calls more attention and more world class players to enter Ligue 1. I wish him good luck in Paris, but against us I hope he does not have much luck like that.
"In the last year, [Leonardo] Jardim always talked with us about focusing on our team and worrying about us. We did this and we were champions.
"This year we are thinking and working in this same way. We need to focus on playing well and concentrate. If we think about other teams, we forget what we have to do. We were the champions doing this and now we will do it again. We are going to work hard to be the champions again."
Monaco and PSG have made faultless openings to their respective 2017-18 campaigns, with the pair locked together at the top of Ligue 1 with maximum points taken from their four fixtures so far.

Why is the number 108 significance in Hinduism?
Is 7 a lucky number in Hinduism?
Why is 7 no lucky?
Is 4 a lucky number in India?
Why is 3 A special number?
Floor 4 is missing because of the very similar pronunciation of "four" and "death" in Mandarin Chinese.
Floor 13 is missing due to triskaidekaphobia.
Floor 14 is missing because 4 is included in 14.
Note that there is a "negative first" floor..
Examples. The first evil numbers are: 0, 3, 5, 6, 9, 10, 12, 15, 17, 18, 20, 23, 24, 27, 29, 30, 33, 34, 36, 39 …
Number 3 often take in pious sacraments as a divine token of godhead and their strengths. The number 3 is a symbolic depiction of Ohm (Aum) in Hinduism. Hinduism also beleives in Lord Dattatreya, here treya means three (3). … Since these three female deities are together considered to be most powerful in Hinduism.
Yadav says that number 13 is also considered lucky and auspicious as there are a number of festivals that fall on this date like Baisakhi (April 13), for instance. "As far as Indian market is concerned , I feel that this parable has percolated from the western markets where number 13 is considered ill-fated .

7 七, QĪ- LUCKY/UNLUCKY Like 5, 7 has both positive and negative connotations in Chinese culture. For the positive side, 七 sounds like both 起 (qǐ), which means "start" or "rise", and also 气 (qì), which means "vital energy". Seven is also seen as a lucky number for relationships.
108 represents the ultimate reality of the universe as being simultaneously one, emptiness, and infinite. 108 has long been considered a sacred number in Hinduism and yoga. Malas, or prayer beads, come as a string of 108 beads. A mala is used for counting as you repeat a mantra, similar to the Catholic rosary.
Seven is the number of completeness and perfection (both physical and spiritual). It derives much of its meaning from being tied directly to God's creation of all things. … The word 'created' is used 7 times describing God's creative work (Genesis 1:1, 21, 27 three times; 2:3; 2:4).
China: 13 is traditionally considered a lucky number in China. This is because its pronunciation sounds similar to the words for "assured growth" or "definitely vibrant".
But 108 has long been considered a sacred number in Hinduism and yoga. … Renowned mathematicians of Vedic culture viewed 108 as a number of the wholeness of existence. This number also connects the Sun, Moon, and Earth: The average distance of the Sun and the Moon to Earth is 108 times their respective diameters.
The number 7 is the symbolic representation of world. Hindu scriptures declare that our earth is but one in a series of several planets. In all there are said to be 14 planet or worlds out of which six are above earth and seven are below the earth. … The number 7 is the symbolic representation of world.
For 'lucky 7' is the world's favourite number. There are seven days of the week, seven colours of the rainbow, seven notes on a musical scale, seven seas and seven continents. … Our fascination with certain numbers goes back to the dawn of recorded history. For the Ancient Babylonians the most meaningful number was 60.
Learn that if your Life lesson number is a 4, then 4 is a lucky and compatible combination. Usually people with such combinations are rare, but if you find your partner then you are lucky and your life can be full of love and happiness.
3 (三), pronounced san, is considered lucky due to its similarity in sound to the word that means birth. Additionally, this number represents the three stages in the life of humans – birth, marriage, death – that adds to its importance in Chinese culture.
Three is the smallest number we need to create a pattern, the perfect combination of brevity and rhythm. … It's a principle captured neatly in the Latin phrase omne trium perfectum: everything that comes in threes is perfect, or, every set of three is complete.

EDWARD SMITH STANLEY, Lord Stanley
25 June 1818 JOHN BLACKBURNE
The representation of Lancashire continued to be shared between the Whig Edward Smith Stanley, 12th Earl of Derby, and what Oldfield referred to in 1792 as the 'independent' gentry and in 1816 as 'the old Tory families'.1 There was little electoral excitement in this period. In 1796, both sitting Members, Derby's cousin Col. Thomas Stanley, who had been supporting government since 1793, and John Blackburne of Hale, were said to have been apprehensive that if Derby's son Lord Stanley were defeated at Preston, one of them would have to make way for him. Lord Stanley was successful, but in any case Derby made it known at the county election that 'he had no intention of interfering' with the sitting Members.2
There was a flurry in 1807, when both Stanley and Blackburne voted for Brand's motion condemning the Portland ministry's pledge on Catholic relief, 9 Apr. This provoked some hostility in Bolton, where it was wrongly believed that the Members had failed to present the town's loyal address to the King, and also in Manchester, and Derby received intelligence of 'a spirit of opposition from the intemperate and ungrateful manufacturers'. Public explanations of the misunderstanding over the address appeared to calm things down and Blackburne's brother reported from Manchester five days before the election:
as far as I can discover, you have nothing to fear from any dissatisfaction in this town. Yours and Stanley's letters have entirely done away any trace of it among the higher orders. ... The strange report of your refusing to present the address raised all the opposition, and when that was explained, little was thought of the late votes you gave against the new administration. You need not have any apprehensions of an opposition. No one is mentioned.
Yet supporters of the Portland ministry believed that 'the name of an opponent is only wanted to defeat Blackburne' and the following day there was a move in Warrington and Liverpool to put up Peter Patten* of Bank Hall, who was currently contesting Lancaster, whence Blackburne was warned by a supporter on the eve of the election:
there is every probability of a formidable opposition to you tomorrow. Many gentlemen I understand are coming from Liverpool, Manchester, Bolton etc. for the purpose of nominating Patten even against his consent. I have had some conversation with him. ... He is determined to give every discouragement to the intended proceedings, and will himself appear upon the hustings in your favour. But I really do believe it will require all the strength you can muster to counteract the intended opposition, and therefore I have sent you this information by express, that you may use every means in your power to gather round you whatever number of friends you can possibly procure before tomorrow, and to request you as much as possible to conciliate and regain to your interests those who by this unfortunate vote have seceded from you.
The opposition collapsed for lack of a candidate, but Blackburne's brother thought it prudent to encourage circulation of the story that he would have stood a contest if necessary, having '£20,000 in your banker's hands for that purpose, and 4,000 voters at Lancaster ready to have brought up without expense'. Five weeks after the election, (Sir) Robert Peel I* claimed in the press that he had declined an invitation to stand.3
In 1812, Col. Stanley retired and Lord Stanley, a Whig like his father, came forward in his place. Peel's brother-in-law Jonathan Yates of Bury wrote to his nephew, the Irish secretary, 28 Sept.:
It is to be hoped. ... that the county will assert its independence ... [and] will, in preference, select a man who is not deaf and dumb, who is not a friend to Sir F. Burdett, to Brougham, Roscoe and all the illuminati. I think one might be found, that though failing on the grand point, might at all events give old Blackburne the go-by.
A canvass was started for the ministerialist Edward Wilbraham Bootle* of Lathom, but nothing came of it, as Blackburne told Lord Sidmouth, 19 Oct. 1812: 'We had ... a little alarm, but the general sense of the county soon smothered it, nor was the opposition intended at me'.4
In February 1817 the reformer Dr Peter Crompton and members of the Liverpool Concentric Society attended the county meeting called to vote a loyal address to the Regent and carried an amendment calling for reform and the dismissal of ministers. At the general election of 1818 Crompton contested Preston and, on his behalf, his son Henry and John Wood nominated their fellow reformer Walter Ramsden Fawkes* for the county against Blackburne, but the show of hands was 'decidedly' against them and they did not demand a poll.5

They Are Taking Advantage Of Me
I've been found out. My reputation goes before me.
A lady from Denver, CO, called from a nationwide organization call Saving Shelter Pets and asked me to make a run to Corinth, NY, this weekend. I guess the Viet Nam and Chinese restaurants are running low on meat up that way so I agreed to help them out.
I have to go up to Chatsworth, GA, to meet the shelter people and load up with 24 puppies and 3 adult dogs, then head over to I-75 North into TN. Then through VA, WVA, Maryland, PA into NY. Nine hundred and thirty five miles – fifteen hours one way. I'll drop them off and head on back. I'll be back Sunday afternoon. Made my weekend! Yippy!
Then on Dec. 9th I head back up there for Dr. Amber. I'm turning into a true nomad.
I hope you all had a great Thanksgiving and that you ate up everything so that there's no leftovers. Yeah, right!
If the Good Lord is willing, I'll get back with y'all Sunday.
Brother Dave, E. Craig and I are a few of the people out there who probably watched this as kids. They just don't make videos like that use to.
Happy Thanksgiving (Turkey Day) to all of you. And for you folks who are not in the USofA, have a great day, too.

15. A woman has twins and gives them up for adoption. One of them goes to a family in Egypt and is named "Ahmal." The other goes to a family in Spain and is named "Juan."

Her husband responds, "They're twins! If you've seen Juan you've seen Ahmal."
16. Mahatma Gandhi, as you know, walked barefoot most of the time, which produced an impressive set of calluses on his feet. He also ate very little, which made him rather frail and, with his odd diet, he suffered from bad breath. This made him a super-calloused fragile mystic hexed by halitosis.
17. And finally, there was the person who sent many different puns to his friends, with the hope that at least 10 of the puns would make them laugh. No pun in 10 did (say the last five words aloud, fast)!

From Cooper:
An elderly couple had dinner at another couple's house, and after eating, the wives left the table and went into the kitchen. The two gentlemen were talking, and one said, "Last night we went out to a new restaurant and it was really great. I would recommend it very highly.
The other man said, "What is the name of the restaurant?"
The first man thought and thought and finally said, "What is the name of that flower you give to someone you love? You know... the one that's red and has thorns."
"Do you mean a rose?"
"Yes, that's the one," replied the man. He then turned towards the kitchen and yelled, "Rose, what's the name of that restaurant we went to last night?"
From Mary:
Ethel and Mabel, two elderly widows, were watching the folks go by from their park bench. Ethel said, "You know, Mabel, I've been reading this 'Sex and Marriage' book and all they talk about is 'mutual orgasm.'
'Mutual orgasm' here and mutual orgasm' there-that's all they talk about.
Tell me, Mabel, when your husband was alive, did you two ever have mutual orgasm?"
Mabel thought for a long while.
Finally, she shook her head and said, "No, I think we had State Farm."
Another one from Mary:
Two old guys, one 80 and one 87, were sitting on their usual park bench one morning.
The 87 year old had just finished his morning jog and wasn't even short of breath. The 80 year old was amazed at his friend's stamina and asked him what he did to have so much energy.
The 87 year old said "Well, I eat rye bread every day. It keeps your energy level high and you'll have great stamina with the ladies."
So, on the way home, the 80 year old stops at the bakery. As he was looking around, the clerk asked if he needed any help. He said, "Do you have any rye bread?" She said, "Yes, there's a whole shelf of it. Would you like some?"
He said, "I want 5 loaves." She said, "My goodness, 5 loaves...by the time you get to the 5th loaf, it'll be hard."
He replied, "I can't believe it, everybody in the world knows about this shit but me."

Another one from Joe:
Larry gets home late one night and, Linda, his wife says, 'Where in the heck have you been?'
Larry replies, 'I was out getting a tattoo.'
'A tattoo?' she frowned. 'What kind of tattoo did you get?'
'I got a hundred dollar bill on my penis,' he said proudly.
'What the hell were you thinking?' she said, shaking her head in disgust. 'Why on earth would an accountant get a hundred dollar bill tattooed on his penis?'
'Well, one, I like to watch my money grow. Two, once in a while I like to play with my money. Three, I like how money feels in my hand. And, lastly, instead of your going out shopping, you can stay right here at home and blow a hundred bucks anytime you want.'
Larry is recovering in room 232 at the local hospital.
Christmas Is Tight This Year So...
My dear family and friends,
Somewhat embarrassing to admit, I'm not getting an annual bonus and Christmas is tight this year. I will be making bedroom slippers for you all as gifts. Please let me know your sizes. You'll most likely agree that it's a splendid idea, and should you wish to do the same, I've included the instructions below. The choice of color of the slipper is somewhat limited, but I can accessorize with any color you like.
How to make bedroom slippers out of maxi pads:
You need four maxi pads to make a pair.
Two of them get laid out flat, for the foot part.
The other two wrap around the toe area to form the top.
Tape or glue each side of the top pieces to the bottom of the foot part.
Decorate the tops with whatever you desire: silk flowers, novelty pins, ribbons, etc.
These slippers are:
* Soft and Hygienic
* Non-slip grip strips on the soles
* Built in deodorant feature keeps feet smelling fresh
* No more bending over to mop up spills
* Disposable and biodegradable
* Environmentally safe
* Three convenient sizes: (1.) Regular, (2.) Light and (3.) Get out the Sand Bags.
I've attached a photo of the first pair I made so that you can see the nifty slippers for yourself....
I'm awaiting your response. It's crucial that I get the right size for each one of you.
Let Me Butter You Up
My blogger friend, Mr. Guinness, sent this to me and I thought I would continue my educational postings by passing this on to you.
This is interesting . . . .
Margarine was originally manufactured to fatten turkeys. When it killed the turkeys, the people who had put all the money into the research wanted a payback so they put their heads together to figure out what to do with this product to get their money back. It was a white substance with no food appeal so they added the yellow coloring and sold it to people to use in place of butter. How do you like it?
They have come out with so many clever new flavorings
Do you know the difference between margarine and butter? Read on to the end...gets very interesting!
Both have the same amount of calories.
Butter is slightly higher in saturated fats at 8 grams compared to 5 grams in margarine.
Eating margarine can increase heart disease in women by 53% over eating the same amount of butter, according to a recent Harvard Medical Study.
Eating butter increases the absorption of many other nutrients in other foods.
Butter has many nutritional benefits where margarine has a few; and those only because they are added!
Butter tastes much better than margarine and it can enhance the flavors of other foods.
Butter has been around for centuries where margarine has been around for less than 100 years.
And now, for Margarine:
Very high in Trans fatty acids.
Triple risk of coronary heart disease. Increases total cholesterol and LDL (this is the bad cholesterol) and lowers HDL cholesterol, (the good cholesterol.)
Increases the risk of cancers up to five fold!
Lowers quality of breast milk!
Decreases immune response!
Decreases insulin response!
And here's the most disturbing fact; the part that is most interesting!
Margarine is but ONE MOLECULE away from being PLASTIC.
This fact alone was enough to have me avoiding margarine for life and anything else that is hydrogenated (this means hydrogen is added, changing the molecular structure of the substance).
You can try this yourself:
Purchase a tub of margarine and leave it in your garage or shaded area. Within a couple of days you will note a couple of things:
* No flies, not even those pesky fruit flies, will go near it (that should tell you something)
* It does not rot or smell differently because it has no nutritional value; nothing will grow on it. Even those teeny weeny micro-organisms will not find a home to grow. Why? Because it is nearly plastic, that's why. Would you melt your Tupperware and spread that on your toast?
I am sharing this with you because I want to 'butter you up.'
Chinese Proverb:
'When someone shares something of value with you and you benefit from it, you have a moral obligation to share it with others'.
Thank You For Serving, Guys and Gals
What Is A Veteran
Some veterans bear visible signs of their service: a missing limb, a jagged scar, a certain look in the eye.
Others may carry the evidence inside them: a pin holding a bone together, a piece of shrapnel in the leg - or perhaps another sort of inner steel: the soul's ally forged in the refinery of adversity.
Except in parades, however, the men and women who have kept America safe wear no badge or emblem.
You can't tell a vet just by looking. What is a vet?
He is the cop on the beat who spent six months in Saudi Arabia sweating two gallons a day making sure the armored personnel carriers didn't run out of fuel.
He is the barroom loudmouth, dumber than five wooden planks, whose overgrown frat-boy behavior is outweighed a hundred times in the cosmic scales by four hours of exquisite bravery near the 38th parallel.
She - or he - is the nurse who fought against futility and went to sleep sobbing every night for two solid years in Da Nang.
He is the POW who went away one person and came back another - or didn't come back AT ALL.
He is the Quantico drill instructor who has never seen combat - but has saved countless lives by turning slouchy, no-account rednecks and gang members into Marines, and teaching them to watch each other's backs.
He is the parade - riding Legionnaire who pins on his ribbons and medals with a prosthetic hand.
He is the career quartermaster who watches the ribbons and medals pass him by.
He is the three anonymous heroes in The Tomb Of The Unknowns, whose presence at the Arlington National Cemetery must forever preserve the memory of all the anonymous heroes whose valor dies unrecognized with them on the battlefield or in the ocean's sunless deep.
He is the old guy bagging groceries at the supermarket - palsied now and aggravatingly slow - who helped liberate a Nazi death camp and who wishes all day long that his wife were still alive to hold him when the nightmares come.
He is an ordinary and yet an extraordinary human being - a person who offered some of his life's most vital years in the service of his country, and who sacrificed his ambitions so others would not have to sacrifice theirs.
He is a soldier and a savior and a sword against the darkness, and he is nothing more than the finest, greatest testimony on behalf of the finest, the greatest nation ever known.
So remember, each time you see someone who has served our country, just lean over and say "Thank You." That's all most people need, and in most cases it will mean more than any medals they could have been awarded or were awarded. Two little words that mean a lot, "THANK YOU."

A very good example of not panicking in dire situations.
But I bet you couldn't have driven a straight pin up his ass with a sledge hammer.

My Life Is Changing
This Wednesday, the 12th, life as I know it will change. My household will never be the same and I will become a little richer (HAHAHAHA.)
I am changing my online, television and telephone to AT&T from Comcast (the phone has always been Southern Bell – now AT&T.) In doing so I will be saving $165 per month. I would kill a man for $50, so I had to jump at a chance to save that much money.
The only change that will affect you is my e-mail will be different. But I will publish that in my profile and to my e-mail peeps. I might be off-line for a day because I have many contacts (utilities, creditors, etc) to notify of my new e-mail address, plus I will be leaving Thursday on yet another pet transport to NY. So for a few days after Wednesday, y'all don't post anything of substance or funny. I mean it. Don't!
I just hope everything goes smoothly. If not, you may read about the untimely demise of an AT&T installer. Just kidding folks! It would be timely.
The Democratic Job Market
It could happen!!
Especially in California!!

An Example and Informatin For Men
If I were to be buried this is the head stone I would like to have before I meet my maker.
FIVE RULES FOR MEN TO FOLLOW TO A HAPPY LIFE:
1. It's important to have a woman, who helps at home, who cooks from time to time, cleans up and has a job.
2. It's important to have a woman, who can make you laugh.
3. It's important to have a woman, who you can trust and who doesn't lie to you.
4. It's important to have a woman, who is good in bed and who likes to be with you.
5. It's very, very important that these four women do not know each other.
The Very Best There Is
My Bohemian, artistic, life loving friend, Mary, sent this to me and I immediately thought of E.Carig and Brother Dave and their Macs.
Mejia was trying to get a job in India .
The Personnel Manager said, 'Mujibar, you have passed all the tests, except one. Unless you pass it, you cannot qualify for this job.'
Mujibar said, 'I am ready.'
The manager said, 'Make a sentence using the words Yellow, Pink and Green.'
Mujibar thought for a few minutes and said, 'Mister Manager, I am ready.'
The manager said, 'Go ahead.'
Mujibar said, 'The telephone goes green, green and I pink it up, and say, ' Yellow, this is Mujibar.'
Mujibar now works at a Microsoft call center.
No doubt you have spoken to him.
DUI - Southern Style
I received this in an email from my friend, Tom.
(Only people from North Carolina could think of this. From the county where driving while under the influence is considered a sport, comes this true story.)
Recently a routine police patrol was parked outside a bar in Kinston , North Carolina . After last call, the officer noticed a man leaving the bar so apparently intoxicated that he could barely walk. The man stumbled around the parking lot for a few minutes, with the officer quietly observing.
After what seemed an eternity, in which he tried his keys on five different vehicles, the man managed to find his car and fall into it. He sat there for a few minutes as a number of other patrons left the bar and drove off. Finally he started the car, switched the wipers on and off; it was a fine, dry summer night, flicked the blinkers on and off a couple of times, honked the horn and then switched on the lights. He moved the vehicle forward a few inches, reversed a little, and then remained still for a few more minutes as some more of the other patrons' vehicles left.
At last, when his was the only car left in the parking lot, he pulled out and drove slowly down the road.
The police officer, having waited patiently all this time, now started up his patrol car, put on the flashing lights, and promptly pulled the man over and administered a breathalyzer test.
To his amazement, the breathalyzer indicated no evidence that the man had consumed any alcohol at all! Dumbfounded, the officer said, 'I'll have to ask you to accompany me to the police station. This breathalyzer equipment must be broken.'
'I doubt it,' said the truly proud Redneck. 'Tonight I'm the designated decoy.'
In Distress
Flying a country's flag upside down is the international sign for the country being in distress. No! I don't know how Morocco, Switzerland, Nigeria, Bangladesh, Japan or Libya show that their country is in distress - other than going to NATO and demanding money from the U.S. But as of November 4, 2008, my country has begun it's decline.
I feel sure there are some people out there who think they did the right thing in voting for this guy, and that they truly love this country. But I also believe that most voted for him because they blindly believed all his carefully chosen button pushing words. That, and that he is half black. Now don't start on me being a raciest. I guess I am to some degree, just like you are, but that is not why I dislike him. If he was conservative Republican, I would be backing him to the hilt, but he isn't.
I dislike him because he is a Marxist Socialist and wants the government to take over all aspects of our life. And he has no leadership experience, and he has some very questionable radical friends and backers going back to the start of his career. And when confronted with these associations, he LIED, and then a different lie and then lied again, and is still lying.
Believe me, I surely hope and pray that I am wrong. If he proves me wrong I will be the first to apologize. Hang around for a few years and we will see. But until then, I will be weeping as my money goes to higher taxes and to fund social plans that help the unemployed, illegal aliens, and those who are to god dam lazy to work. I love my country and I fear She is on her way down. I miss the days when the world looked upon us as arrogant. When you are the best place on earth you have a right to be. If this country is so bad why are people trying to get here? You don't see people sneaking across the boarder into Iran, Iraq, India, China or Mexico.
I'm not a McCain supporter, either. I feel he let us down on several occasions, but I have never doubted his commitment to this country. He is not another Bush follower. In fact he fought Bush more than the helped him. I have had enough of the Bush administration, too. But I don't believe he was the worst President we have ever had since the beginning of the twentieth century - that distinction goes to my native son, Jimmy Carter - the President who never met a tyrannical dictator he didn't like. But Bush did blunder on many occasions. However, the war was not one of them. Also, the economy started going down hill after the House and Senate turned Democratic. And the financial debacle we have now is a direct result of Bill'The Dick Slinger'Clinton. So we will have to wait and see how this Marxist does.

Let The Voting Begin
I will be working the poles all day - from 6:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. So don't bother me because I will ignore you. I have serious business to do today.
Twenty Dollars
On their wedding night, the young bride approached her new husband and asked for $20.00 for their first lovemaking encounter. In his highly aroused state, her husband readily agreed.
This scenario was repeated each time they made love, for more than 30 years, with him thinking that it was a cute way for her to afford new clothes and other incidentals that she needed.
Arriving home around noon one day, she was surprised to find her husband in a very drunken state. During the next few minutes, he explained that his employer was going through a process of corporate downsizing, and he had been let go. It was unlikely that, at the age of 59, he'd be able to find another position that paid anywhere near what he'd been earning, and therefore, they were financially ruined.
Calmly, his wife handed him a bank book which showed more than thirty years of steady deposits and interest totaling nearly $1 million. Then she showed him certificates of deposits issued by the bank which were worth over $2 million, and informed him that they were one of the largest depositors in the bank.
She explained that for the more than three decades she had 'charged' him for sex, these holdings had multiplied and these were the results of her savings and investments.
Faced with evidence of cash and investments worth over $3 million, her husband was so astounded he could barely speak, but finally he found his voice and blurted out, 'If I'd had any idea what you were doing, I would have given you all my business!'
That's when she shot him.
You know, sometimes, men just don't know when to keep their mouths shut.
This Is About How I Remember It
I'm due another colonoscopy this year, and I dread it. A friend reminded me of this and sent me a copy of Dave Barry's piece about his colonoscopy. He is hilarious, but it is a serious matter. The ONLY hard part is the day before. The actual procedure is painless, and a good job for a man-hating woman. Why? Because she gets to jam something up a man's ass… and get paid to do it.
Dave Barry's Colonoscopy Journal:
I called my friend Andy Sable, a gastroenterologist, to make an appointment for a colonoscopy. A few days later, in his office, Andy showed me a color diagram of the colon, a lengthy organ that appears to go all over the place, at one point passing briefly through Minneapolis.
Then Andy explained the colonoscopy procedure to me in a thorough, reassuring and patient manner. I nodded thoughtfully, but I didn't really hear anything he said, because my brain was shrieking, quote, 'HE'S GOING TO STICK A TUBE 17,000 FEET UP YOUR BEHIND!'
I left Andy's office with some written instructions, and a prescription for a product called 'MoviPrep,' which comes in a box large enough to hold a microwave oven. I will discuss MoviPrep in detail later; for now suffice it to say that we must never allow it to fall into the hands of America's enemies.
I spent the next several days productively sitting around being nervous. Then, on the day before my colonoscopy, I began my preparation. In accordance with my instructions, I didn't eat any solid food that day; all I had was chicken broth, which is basically water, only with less flavor.
Then, in the evening, I took the MoviPrep. You mix two packets of powder together in a one-liter plastic jug, then you fill it with lukewarm water. (For those unfamiliar with the metric system, a liter is about 32 gallons.)
Then you have to drink the whole jug. This takes about an hour, because MoviPrep tastes - and here I am being kind - like a mixture of goat spit and urinal cleanser, with just a hint of lemon.
The instructions for MoviPrep, clearly written by somebody with a great sense of humor, state that after you drink it, 'a loose watery bowel movement may result.' This is kind of like saying that after you jump off your roof, you may experience contact with the ground.
MoviPrep is a nuclear laxative. I don't want to be too graphic, here, but: Have you ever seen a space-shuttle launch? This is pretty much the MoviPrep experience, with you as the shuttle. There are times when you wish the commode had a seat belt. You spend several hours pretty much confined to the bathroom, spurting violently. You eliminate everything. And then, when you figure you must be totally empty, you have to drink another liter of MoviPrep, at which point, as far as I can tell, your bowels travel into the future and start eliminating food that you have not even eaten yet.
After an action-packed evening, I finally got to sleep. The next morning my wife drove me to the clinic. I was very nervous. Not only was I worried about the procedure, but I had been experiencing occasional return bouts of MoviPrep spurtage. I was thinking, 'What if I spurt on Andy?' How do you apologize to a friend for something like that? Flowers would not be enough.
At the clinic I had to sign many forms acknowledging that I understood and totally agreed with whatever the heck the forms said. Then they led me to a room full of other colonoscopy people, where I went inside a little curtained space and took off my clothes and put on one of those hospital garments designed by sadist perverts, the kind that, when you put it on, makes you feel even more naked than when you are actually naked.
Then a nurse named Eddie put a little needle in a vein in my left hand. Ordinarily I would have fainted, but Eddie was very good, and I was already lying down. Eddie also told me that some people put vodka in their MoviPrep.
At first I was ticked off that I hadn't thought of this, but then I pondered what would happen if you got yourself too tipsy to make it to the bathroom, so you were staggering around in full Fire Hose Mode. You would have no choice but to burn your house.
When everything was ready, Eddie wheeled me into the procedure room, where Andy was waiting with a nurse and an anesthesiologist. I did not see the17,000-foot tube, but I knew Andy had it hidden around there somewhere. I was seriously nervous at this point. Andy had me roll over on my left side, and the anesthesiologist began hooking something up to the needle in my hand. There was music playing in the room, and I realized that the song was 'Dancing Queen' by Abba. I remarked to Andy that, of all the songs that could be playing during this particular procedure, 'Dancing Queen' has to be the least appropriate. 'You want me to turn it up?' said Andy, from somewhere behind me.
'Ha ha,' I said. And then it was time, the moment I had been dreading for more than a decade. If you are squeamish, prepare yourself, because I am going to tell you, in explicit detail, exactly what it was like.
I have no idea. Really.. I slept through it. One moment, Abba was shrieking 'Dancing Queen! Feel the beat from the tambourine ...' and the next moment, I was back in the other room, waking up in a very mellow mood. Andy was looking down at me and asking me how I felt. I felt excellent. I felt even more excellent when Andy told me that it was all over, and that my colon had passed with flying colors. I have never been prouder of an internal organ.
Dave Barry is a Pulitzer Prize-winning humor columnist for the Miami Herald.
Colonoscopies are no joke, but these comments during exams were quite humorous...... A physician claimed that the following are actual comments made by his patients (predominately male) before or after their colonoscopies:
1. 'Take it easy, Doc. You're boldly going where no man has gone before!
2. 'Find Amelia Earhart yet?'
3. 'Can you hear me NOW?'
4. 'Are we there yet? Are we there yet? Are we there yet?'
5. 'You know, in Arkansas, we're now legally married.'
6. 'Any sign of the trapped miners, Chief?'
7. 'You put your left hand in; you take your left hand out...'
8. 'Hey! Now I know how a Muppet feels!'
9. 'If your hand doesn't fit, you must quit!'
10. 'Hey Doc, let me know if you find my dignity.'
11. 'You used to be an executive at Enron, didn't you?'
12. 'God, now I know why I am not gay.'
13. 'How far up did you go? I now have a sore throat.'
And the best one of all…
14. 'Could you write a note for my wife saying that my head is not up there?


Detective Morgan never returned to work. Jackson called his cell the next morning, then went to his home when Morgan didn't answer — and found nothing. After two weeks of looking for him, we think he's gone; there's no other way to explain it.
A great loss for my department. Perhaps that dirtbag Scalzi placed a hit on him.
At least Scalzi didn't fare much better. The explosion two weeks ago destroyed most of his mansion, and two bodies were found inside. One was his bodyguard, Mancini; the other, presumably, was Scalzi himself, all dressed up in his Armani suit.
His body was badly burned. He seems to have lost some weight, and, curiously, both his hands and his head were missing. Most likely, some other mafia boss wanted to make an example out of him. Why, I do not know.
He's not the only one who died. We found Barsukov, the Russian, in the river, and one of our informers told us that Kazuo Hashimoto of the Yakuza got killed three days ago, although no one has seen the body. It's all-out war out there; or perhaps the Black Hunter has stepped up his game.
As for me, I pulled out my men. With all these deaths, being undercover has gotten a lot riskier these days. But at least someone, either the Black Hunter or the bad guys themselves, is doing the jobs my department can't do.
I guess I'll just wait until it's over, and pick up the pieces.
So, how did the standoff end two weeks ago? Who lived and who died?

Schoultz von Ascheraden ist der Familienname eines schwedisch-baltischen Adelsgeschlechts. Es wurde im Jahre 1652 in das schwedische Ritterhaus aufgenommen. Die livländische Abstammungslinie siedelte sich teilweise in Pommern und Russland an und stellte im Baltikum mehrere herausragende Landespolitiker und höhere Offiziere.

Geschichte
Ursprünglich war das böhmische Adelsgeschlecht "von Schoultze" in der Nähe von Prag beheimatet. Die ausbrechenden Religionsstreitigkeiten veranlassten die Schoultzes zunächst nach Polen und später nach Livland zu flüchten. Der erste 1589 urkundlich benannte, und als Stammvater geführte Vorfahre in Livland, war Hermann Schultz, oder Schulz und auch als Schulthess bekannt. Er stand im Dienste des schwedischen Königs Johann III. (1537–1592), wurde 1601 schwedischer Oberst und Kommandant der Festung Kockenhusen. Er fiel 1605 in der Schlacht bei Kirchholm.

In Anerkennung seiner Verdienste wurde sein Sohn Simon (* um 1588–1633) im Jahre 1630 mit der Starostwo und dem Schloss Ascheraden, im heutigen lettischen Aizkraukle, belehnt, welches 1674 durch die Schenkung von Karl XI. von Schweden (1655–1697) als Baronie, in den Besitz der Familie überging. Simon von Schoultz war schwedischer Oberst der Artillerie und fiel 1633 im Dreißigjährigen Krieg bei Pfaffenhofen an der Ilm. Sein Sohn Martin (1617–1682) stieg bis zum schwedischen Generalleutnant auf, war Landrat und Generalgouverneur von Schonen, Gouverneur in Narwa. Martin wurde mit dem Adelsdiplom vom 18. April 1674 in den freiherrlichen Adelsstand, mit dem Prädikat "von Ascheraden" aufgenommen. Ab dieser Zeit führten sie den Namen Schoultz von Ascheraden. 1675 wurde er in das Ritterhaus zu Stockholm (Nr. 58) eingeführt.

Sein jüngerer Sohn Martin Simon (1660–1730) setzte die militärische Laufbahn seines Vaters fort, er wurde bis zum Generalleutnant befördert und vertrat die schwedische Krone als Gouverneur von Wismar und Stralsund, wobei er die pommersche Abstammungslinie gründete. Der ältere Bruder Carl Friedrich (1656–1728) war königlich schwedischer Oberst und nach seinem aktiven Militärdienst übernahm er die Führung der Güter Ascheraden und Römerberg, er war auch livländischer Landrat und setzte die livländische Linie fort. Diese wurde 1652 in den schwedischen Adelsstand erhoben, 1674 erhielten sie den Freiherrenstand mit dem Adelsprädikat "von Ascheraden", 1854 wurden sie als Barone in den russischen Adelsstand erhoben. 1742 erhielten sie das livländische und 1839 das estländische Indigenat. Sie wurden in die Livländische Ritterschaft unter der Nummer 70 und in der Estländischen Ritterschaft unter der Immatrikulationsnummer 289 eingetragen.

Carl Friedrich (1720–1782) gilt als einer der bedeutendsten aufklärerischen Reformer des Baltikums, der sich um eine Verbesserung der Lage der Bauernschaft bemühte. Bekannt bzw. berüchtigt wurde er durch ein privates Landrecht, das er 1764 für die Bauern Ascheradens (mit Langholm) erließ und in welchem er viele Rechte und Schutzregelungen der Schwedenzeit für die Bauern wiedereinsetzte. Für seine Bemühungen, die seinen Tod größtenteils nicht überdauerten, wurde er vom Aufklärer Garlieb Merkel als einer der wenigen deutschbaltischen Gutsbesitzer als vorbildlich hervorgehoben.

Der Sohn Martin Simons, Carl Ludwig (* 1711) führte die pommersche Linie fort, er erbte durch die Heirat mit Freiin von Marschalk die Güter Schmantevitz und Lobkevitz in der Nähe von Breege auf Rügen.

Stammwappen
Das Stammwappen derer von Schoultz befindet sich im Herzschild des großen freiherrlichen Wappens: In Silber ein natürlicher mit einem Rosenkranz gegürteter, breitbeinig stehender Mann mit ausgebreiteten Armen, in jeder Hand eine zweiblättrige rot blühende Rose.

Meadville Community Theatre is thrilled to present the third show of their 52nd season, "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest," adapted for the stage by Dale Wasserman and based on the 1962 novel by Ken Kesey. Directed by Katie Wickert, "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest" tells the story of institutional madness where obedience and conformity are the only acceptable indications of good mental health. Randle P. McMurphy, a charming rogue, contrives to serve a short sentence in an airy mental institution rather than in a prison. This, he learns, was a mistake. He clashes with Nurse Ratched, a manipulative and fierce martinet. He quickly takes over the yard and accomplishes what the medical profession has been unable to do for twelve years; he makes a presumed deaf and dumb Indian talk. He leads others out of introversion, stages a revolt so that they can see the World Series on television, and arranges a rollicking midnight party with liquor and chippies. When these acts are not tolerated, McMurphy learns the authorities and Nurse Ratched have terrible ways of enabling conformity. Based on Ken Kesey's 1962 novel of the same name, One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest is a powerful exploration of the beauty and the danger of being an original.
