Problem with voice command/input
I have my tic watch 2 paired and connected with my LG G5 which is running Android 7.0.
I can get all notification properly but never get a chance to use the voice command or input. It turns out that as long as my phone has connected to a wifi, then I can use the voice input or command flawlessly.
Once I'm off from a wifi and using 4G data, I slide for voice command or click reply message with voice input, the screen shows "network error". I'm sure my 4G signal is good and I wonder if it's a bug...it's very annoying without such function and i can't always connect with a wifi for a turnaround solution.
Is there any permanent fix for this?
I didn't find the right solution from the Internet.

New York stormed
NEW YORK, N. Minnesota Timberwolves Gear .Y. - Anthony Duclair scored his first NHL goal with 3:48 remaining, Mats Zuccarello put the Rangers ahead 37 seconds later and New York stormed back from a three-goal deficit by scoring five times in the third period to stun the Minnesota Wild 5-4 Monday night.The Wild appeared to be in complete control when they carried a 3-0 lead into the third and held a 24-8 shots advantage, but Darcy Kuemper — who had allowed only four goals this season — was rocked for five in less than a period.Rangers defenceman Kevin Klein started the comeback at 2:52. Rick Nash made it 3-2 at 4:48, but Jason Zucker restored the Wilds two-goal lead 47 seconds later.Derick Brassard made it a one-goal game again at 7:54. The 19-year-old Duclair, playing his seventh NHL game, tied it before Zuccarello scored the winner.Nate Prosser, Matt Cooke and Jason Pominville scored second-period goals for the Wild, who held a 30-20 shots advantage but had their two-game winning streak snapped.Rangers forward Chris Kreider and defenceman John Moore could be facing supplemental discipline from the NHL for separate hits that led to the ejection of both players.OILERS 3, CANADIENS 0EDMONTON, Alberta (AP) — Ben Scrivens made 29 saves in his seventh career shutout, and Benoit Pouliot had a goal and an assist to lead Edmonton over Montreal.Nail Yakupov and Taylor Hall also scored for the Oilers, who have won four straight after an 0-4-1 start — the worst in franchise history.Dustin Tokarski stopped 16 of 18 shots for the Canadiens (7-2-0), who had their four-game winning streak snapped. Keita Bates-Diop Jersey . -- Craig Anderson has quite a record against his former team, the Florida Panthers. Ricky Rubio Jersey . Nikolaos Kounenakis has been hired as an assistant coach, the team announced on Monday.The Philadelphia Flyers arent getting much right lately, but Vincent Lecavaliers scoring surge and the potential return of Claude Giroux are providing some hope. With Giroux a game-time decision, Lecavalier will try to help the Flyers avoid matching their longest slide of the season Tuesday night against the visiting Ottawa Senators. Viewers in the Senators region can catch all of the action LIVE on TSN5 with at 7pm et or listen live on TSN Radio 1200 Ottawa with coverage beginning at 5pm et. Philadelphia (14-18-7) has been outscored 19-9 during an 0-4-1 stretch after starting a season-high eight-game road trip with three victories. The jaunt also cost the Flyers some money, as the NHL fined them for violating the collective bargaining agreement by traveling during the holiday break. Players were barred from traveling or practicing Dec. 24-26, and Philadelphia reportedly took a flight to Nashville on Dec. 26 before losing 4-1 the following night to begin this slide. The Flyers concluded the trip by giving up the first five goals in Saturdays 5-2 loss to New Jersey. Lecavalier, however, has been a bright after spending seven games as a healthy scratch. The veteran center has five goals with one assist in eight games since after scoring twice through his first 17. He scored his first power-play goal Saturday but was also a minus-3. Its a lot more than what I had two weeks ago, Lecavalier told the teams official website of being back in the lineup regularly. The more you are out there, the more comfortable you are, the more you feel the puck. Lecavalier has six points in his last four meetings with Ottawwa (16-15-7), assisting on a goal by Wayne Simmonds in a 5-2 win in the most recent home matchup Nov. Jamal Crawford Jersey . 19, 2013. Giroux had a goal in that meeting, giving him eight points in 10 matchups at Wells Fargo Center. Its unclear if hell be available for this one after his stretch of 168 consecutive games played ended Saturday due to a cut on the back of his left leg by a skate during Fridays 2-1 loss at Carolina. Having Giroux on the ice for this four-game homestand could provide a spark since hes compiled 22 of his 30 points there. The venue hasnt mattered for Jakub Voracek as he leads the league with 48 points. Hes collected 12 in 13 career games against the Senators, scoring four goals while setting up another in the last four. Ottawa has dropped four of six after squandering a pair of leads to lose 4-2 to Tampa Bay on Sunday. Frustration showed in the third period as the Senators were whistled for five penalties, including a double-minor on captain Erik Karlsson in the final minutes. A lot of it comes from frustration, coach Dave Cameron told the teams official website. I think we allowed our tiredness and fatigue to become frustration. I can guarantee you that of the nine penalties, there were a few questionable ones. So how many did we actually take is somewhere in between. But at the end of the day you get pegged for nine so you take nine. Karlsson leads Ottawa with 27 points and has four in his last three visits to Philadelphia. Kyle Turris has three goals in his last four games against the Flyers, and hes scored in each of the last two overall while adding an assist Sunday. ' ' '

Hello, The chat50 is very flexible, like Phoenix Duet - can connect to landline or cellphone (earpiece jack). It doesn't seem that chat150 can, at least out of the box. Can I adapt it to work with POTS and cellphones? The Chat50 is just too small/weak for my application - 6-10 person conferences around tables, typical distance to the box is about 7' for each participant, some up to 10'. Please advise .. would like to make this work. Please help I didn't find the right solution from the internet.

Q: How to Mix Markers and Labels in Matplotlib Legend I am working on a figure where space is constrained and I want to combine my legend using parentheticals as in this picture.

At the moment I just make some parenthesis in my labels for the plot and then edit the figure in Inkscape later on to add the missing markers, but this makes iterating on the plot more expensive in terms of time before having a usable figure.  Is there any way to hack matplotlib into doing something similar without having to go through an external program?

Arizona Democrats Call for Federal Investigation into Local GOP Lawmakers' Role in Riot
Ducey: 'We Will Be Able To Vaccinate Our Way Out Of This'
Tenth Coronavirus Case Confirmed in Arizona
Meg O'Connor
| Coronavirus |
Meg O'Connor | March 13, 2020 | 6:53pm
The CDC's laboratory test kit for the 2019 novel coronavirus.
UPDATE: Two more people have tested positive as of the morning of Saturday, March 14. That brings the total count of confirmed cases up to 12.
Ten people now have tested positive for the 2019 novel coronavirus in Arizona. While the latest stats on the Arizona Department of Health Services' website only reflect nine cases (it was last updated this morning at 9 a.m.), Pima County Health Department officials tonight announced a second presumptive positive case, bringing the statewide total up to 10.
On March 9, Pima County health officials identified their first presumptive positive coronavirus case. At this time, there is no clear link between the new case identified today and the March 9 case, health officials said in a press release.
ASU, University of Arizona Switching to Online Classes Over the Coronavirus
Was 90-Year-Old Arizona Coronavirus Patient at Nursing Home? Officials Won't Say
Arizona Governor Declares State of Emergency on Coronavirus, With Nine Cases So Far
How the individual contracted the virus remains under investigation. The infected individual and his or her household contacts are at home in isolation and under observation, health officials said. The individual had recently traveled to another state, though officials are not yet sure whether he or she contracted the virus while traveling.
A spokesperson for the Pima County Health Department did not respond when asked for further information on the new presumptive positive case, including the person's age.
"PCHD is working to identify additional close contacts that may have been exposed while the person was infectious," a press release from the Pima County Health Department states. "Any individuals who have been identified as having been exposed will be contacted directly. These individuals will be monitored for fever and respiratory symptoms in collaboration with PCHD and medical providers."
So far, 143 people in Arizona have been tested for the virus. Ninety-four tests have been ruled out and 39 are still pending. There have been 10 confirmed positive cases or presumptive positive cases.
There are now nearly 2,100 known cases of the 2019 novel coronavirus in the United States across 48 states and Washington, D.C. At least 48 people have died since becoming infected. A majority of the cases and deaths are in Washington state (509 cases, 37 deaths as of Friday afternoon). New York has 421 cases; California has 276 cases and four deaths.
On Wednesday, the World Health Organization declared COVID-19 a pandemic. That same day, Governor Doug Ducey declared a state of emergency, saying he was "not taking any chances" as the state expects more cases.
Declaring a state of emergency gives the state powers it doesn't usually have in order to combat the spread of the virus. It allows DHS to waive licensing laws should hospitals need to hire nurses and doctors from out of state, and it allows the governor and DHS to mandate medical exams and ration medicine and vaccines.
Fast-Moving Problem
The first case of COVID-19 in Arizona was confirmed in late January, when a member of the Arizona State University community who recently had traveled to Wuhan, China, tested positive for the virus. That case already has been resolved: After nearly a month in isolation, the ASU member was cleared of the virus following multiple negative tests from the CDC and was released.
On March 3, DHS identified a second positive case involving a man in his 20s. That patient was transported to HonorHealth's Scottsdale Osborn location; however, he has since returned home and is in isolation. The man contracted the virus after coming into contact with another presumptive positive patient outside of Arizona, health officials said.
Five Scottsdale first responders who transported and evaluated the second person are under isolation protocol, Scottsdale city officials said on March 5.
Then, on March 6, a Pinal County health care worker in her 40s was hospitalized after testing positive for the virus. The case represents the first instance of community spread in Arizona, meaning the source of the infection is unknown — the woman had not come into close contact with anyone known to be infected with COVID-19 and had not traveled to an affected area like Wuhan.
One day after that, DHS announced that two more people had tested positive for COVID-19, raising the total from three to five. Those two people are the son and husband of the infected health care worker and share a household with her. The health care worker and her husband remain hospitalized but are recovering and in stable condition, a spokesperson for Pinal County Public Health told Phoenix New Times on Thursday.
The son is a student at the American Leadership Academy in Queen Creek. The DHS said the boy did not visit the campus while ill, is not seriously ill, has fully recovered and returned home. The school is still taking precautionary measures to clean the campus while students are away for spring break this week and set up sanitation stations throughout the school.
New Cases, More Closures
On March 9, a sixth positive COVID-19 case in Arizona was identified by Pima County health officials. The patient, who resides in unincorporated Pima County and recently returned from traveling in an area with community spread of the virus, is not severely ill and is currently recovering at home in isolation, county health officials said in a press release.
A spokesperson for the Pima County Health Department told New Times on Thursday that person diagnosed in Pima County "has fully recovered. They didn't have hospitalizing-level symptoms; they never needed that level of care."
The Pima Unified School District closed on Thursday amid reports that some Pima Elementary School students may have been exposed to "an unknown illness." The city of Pima is in Graham County, not Pima.
On Wednesday, two people over the age of 60 who also reside in the same household as the infected health care worker have tested positive for COVID-19. That makes five of Arizona's nine cases all originating from the same household.
"Both cases are over sixty years old and from the same household as the three current Pinal County cases. They are recovering at home," a spokesperson for Pinal County Public Health said in a press release, adding that county health officials are continuing to investigate the cases and any close contacts the infected individuals may have had.
The latest presumptive positive case in Maricopa County involves a man in his 90s who is recovering at a hospital and is in stable condition, county health officials said.
It seems likely the man was at a nursing home, assisted living facility, or some sort of long-term care for the elderly when he was infected: A spokesperson for Maricopa County Public Health told ABC15 News (KNXV-TV) that the county is "working with the facility on approved cleaning recommendations," but would not say what facility the patient was in, or where the facility was.
At a press conference on Wednesday, DHS director Dr. Cara Christ said Maricopa County will "be working directly with that health care provider to ensure there is appropriate cleaning put in place, appropriate protocol and ongoing monitoring."
Asked by New Times to provide more details about what steps are being taken to contain the spread of the virus at the facility, a spokesperson for Maricopa County Public Health said only, "You can see the CDC guidance on cleaning at the CDC COVID-19 site." The spokesperson would not say whether the man lived in a nursing home or on his own.
Sonia Singh, a spokesperson for Maricopa County Public Health, said the man in his 20s is in stable condition at home and remains under observation by MCDPH, while the man in his 90s remains hospitalized but in stable condition.
Asked whether all of the close contacts of the two active Maricopa County cases had been identified and tested, Singh said only, "Close contacts have been contacted and advised to monitor for symptoms and contact Public Health if any symptoms appear." She did not respond to a follow-up question about whether the 90-year-old's close contacts from the facility he was at had been tested.
In Washington, where the COVID-19 outbreak has been especially deadly, 18 residents of the same nursing facility have died. Across the country, long-term care centers for the elderly are taking steps to reduce visits and isolate the vulnerable elderly populations they serve.
On Wednesday, Ducey issued an executive order aimed at protecting those most at risk of COVID-19: the elderly and immuno-compromised. Among other things, the order requires nursing home and assisted living facilities to implement visitor policies including enhanced symptom checks for visitors and workers.
Later on Wednesday evening, Arizona State University announced it will transition from in-person classes to online instruction. The change goes into effect Monday, March 16. Classes will continue on an online basis for two weeks, at which point the school will "assess where things stand with COVID-19," ASU President Michael Crow said in an email to students.
Northern Arizona University and Grand Canyon University have since followed suit. Meanwhile, a handful of schools across the state have closed due to concerns over the spread of the virus.
COVID-19 spreads through the air when an infected person coughs or sneezes. Symptoms appear within two to 14 days after exposure and consist of fever, cough, runny nose, or difficulty breathing. Those at highest risk for contracting the virus have traveled to an area where the virus is spreading, or have come into close contact with a person who is diagnosed as having COVID-19.
The best way to prevent COVID-19 and other respiratory diseases is to:
• Avoid close contact with people who are sick.
• Avoid touching your eyes, nose, and mouth.
• Stay home when you are sick.
• Cover your cough or sneeze with a tissue, then throw the tissue in the trash.
• Clean and disinfect frequently touched objects and surfaces using a regular household cleaning spray or wipe.
• Wash your hands often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds. If soap and water are not readily available, use an alcohol-based hand sanitizer.

Hardcore PvP MMO Mortal Online 2 Pushes Launch Date Back to January
Extra time will allow for implementation of housing and other content.
Developer Star Vault had planned to release Mortal Online 2, the sequel to its hardcore sandbox MMORPG hit of nearly a decade ago, this October. But, as has been the case with nearly every game we've seen a piece of this year, things aren't going to plan and the launch date has been pushed back to 2022.
January 25, 2022, in fact, is the exact date that Mortal Online 2 will be unleashed on the masses, the developer announced today. It will bypass early access -- which is, as we all know, effectively the same as a launch -- and take the extra few months to implement the "heavily requested housing system in place along with a heavy dose of polish, bug fixes and extra content."
Much like its predecessor, Mortal Online 2 is billed as a "full loot, full PvP" game with "complex crafting" and "Intense skill based first person" combat, with over 600 skills. It's got a "Massive sandbox world for you to explore and fight over" and has warnings for violence, gore, and optional full nudity. In other words, it ain't for the faint of heart, but if you want to give it a try now, you can access the closed beta by donating via the Mortal Online 2 website.
In this article: Star Vault, Mortal Online 2.

Here an epic Fanmade trailer with Battles up to 300 Players ! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z3X_i_bsEBk
During the stress test, a battle with arround 400-500 players was organized on the battlefield. Here the link
https://rumble.com/vmwmyx-mortal-online-2-server-performence-500-players-on-the-battlefield.html
At first the lag was unbearable. Players even teleported around. However, this was due to a bug that caused the creatures' spawns to quadruple. Then the server was restarted and the fight was fairly lag-free. Here and there my FPS dropped to 25 FPS and one or the other player jerked briefly, but there was no rubber banding and you weren't hit from a great distance because of the desynch. It was playable. You could also block sensibly. I never would have expected that. I think arround 400-500 players on the battlefield with a mount and blade combat system is a brilliant achievement. There seems to be a lot of work going into the netcode. In the first Game the netcode was very bad, but the developers seem to have gained a lot of experience with this combat system over the past 12 years.
I am actually quite impressed! Unfortunately we were outnumbered and that's why the opponents in this clip retreated to the city. Any developer can implement great and creative mechanics, but the netcode is the reason why most MMOs fail and most developers prefer to keep their hands off a "free aiming" combat system. Gloria Victis and Life is Feudal were unplayable becuase of the Netcode.
Since then it has always been said that a free aiming combat system as in mount and blade in impossible in an MMO. You can't implement a Mordhau Combatsystem in an MMO, but the mount and blade Combatsystem is quite good. You don't have to aim directly at the weapon when blocking, but you have to block the individual attacks on the right, left, above or in the middle. You don't even notice the nodelines (server lines). However, the level streaming lines are still lagging. According to the developers, this is being worked on together with Epic Games and should improve significantly after the update to Unreal Engine 5. There will also be Starlink next year.
That means 500 Mbit Internet.
The game isn't perfectly optimized either. If a 500-man fight can run fairly smoothly and there is only a little lag every now and then, that is completely sufficient. Usually not that many players take part in a battle and when they do, this is more of an exception. The city of meduli were also very many players.
I also made a Fanmade-Trailer to show the Combat System. MO2 cant even compared MO2 cannot even begin to be compared with MO1.
https://rumble.com/vmtj5d-mortal-online-2-fan-made-trailer-release-jan-2022.html
Check this Video. The Combat is so much better as in MO1 and you can now even feint Reposts after a parry since the last patch. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4ub5pAZRPsM&t=28s

Guest Post: Africa – China And Japan's Next Battleground? | Zero Hedge
January 16, 2014 2:22 pm / Leave a comment
Guest Post: Africa – China And Japan's Next Battleground? | Zero Hedge.
We have long held that Africa is a crucial region of the world in the near future because there is no more incremental debt capacity at any level: sovereign, household, financial or corporate – in any other region. As we noted previously:
without the ability to create debt out of thin air, be it on a secured or unsecured basis, the ability to "create" growth, at least in the current Keynesian paradigm, goes away with it. Yet there is one place where there is untapped credit creation potential, if not on an unsecured (i.e., future cash flow discounting), then certainly on a secured (hard asset collateral) basis. The place is Africa, and according to some estimates the continent, Africa can create between $5 and $10 trillion in secured debt, using its extensive untapped resources as first-lien collateral.
Africa is precisely where the smart money (and those who quietly run the above mentioned "power echelons"), namely China and Goldman Sachs, have refocused all their attention in the past year precisely because they both realize that Africa is the last and only bastion of untapped credit growth and capacity.
Africa in geographical perspective…
So it is perhaps unsurprising that China's current arch-enemy Japan – and its apparently bottomless well of printed money – are taking aim also…
Submitted by Shannon Tiezzi, via The Diplomat,
As tensions between China and Japan multiply, there is an increasing battle for influence in other states. For example, in his recent article in The Diplomat, Jin Kai noted China and Japan's global media war. There has also been an upswing in more traditional diplomatic wrangling, with Japan seeking to increase its influence in ASEAN as an attempt to reduce China's sway in the region. With both China and Japan seeking to assert their leadership over the Asia-Pacific, it makes sense that both countries would woo ASEAN. It's a bit more surprisingly to see China-Japan diplomatic competition supposedly pop up in Africa.
Recently, China's Foreign Minister Wang Yi and Japan's Prime Minister Shinzo Abe both visited the African continent. Abe left on January 9 for a week-long tour of the Ivory Coast, Mozambique, and Ethiopia. Meanwhile, Wang was in Africa from January 7 to January 11, visiting Ethiopia, Djibouti, Ghana, and Senegal. Given the current chill in China-Japan relations (and the tendency for both countries to snipe at each other in the media), the two trips quickly morphed into a sign of 'competition' over Africa.
Both countries rejected the idea that they were competing. When Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Hua Chunying was asked to comment on the idea that Wang Yi's visit to Africa "is directed against Japan," she responded that anyone harboring this idea "is not so acquainted with the past and present of China-Africa relations." Indeed, as Hua pointed out, it's traditional for Chinese Foreign Ministers to visit Africa as their first overseas trip of the new year. Hua praised China "sincere and selfless help" for Africa, and warned that trying to stir up a rivalry in Africa is "a wrong decision which is doomed to fail." This comment was likely directed at Japan, but could just as easily apply to the United States and other countries seeking to increase their influence in Africa.
Japan also denied that Abe's visit to Africa had anything to do with China. Hiroshige Seko, a deputy chief cabinet secretary, was quoted in an Associated Press article as saying that competing against China is "not our intention at all." Seko added, "As far as the African nations are concerned, they are important regardless of China." African countries are important to Japan for the same reason they are to China — a wealth of natural resources as well as ample opportunity for foreign investment. The New York Times pointed out that increasing ties with Africa is just one aspect of Abe's diplomatic strategy, all of which is designed to support "Abenomics."
In a speech in Ethiopia, Abe reaffirmed Africa's importance. "A considerable number of Japanese believe that Africa is the hope for Japan," he said. His speech focused almost entirely on the potential for a positive relationship between Africans and Japanese companies — including how Japanese management strategies can benefit African people. "When Japanese companies that value each and every individual come to Africa, a win-win relationship in the truest sense can emerge," Abe said. By contrast, his vision of the Japanese government's role in Africa seemed like an afterthought. Abe did discuss his wish for more cooperation with the African Union, and offered to increase Japans' assistance and loans to the continent, but he spent far less time on this point than on extolling the virtues of Japanese businesses.
Japan's strategy, in other words, is economically focused. It's clear that Abe's pursuit of a relationship with Africa is closely connected with Japanese businesses. China, on the other hand, constantly emphasizes the "friendship" between its government and those of African nations. Though Chinese companies do big business in China, Beijing almost never alludes to this fact in its official remarks. When joint projects (such as roads or government buildings) are brought up, these projects are always a sign of China's friendship towards Africa.
Accordingly, in his speeches Wang Yi focused on the government-to-government relationships between China and African nations. In Senegal, Wang called for both countries "to firmly support each other's core interest[s] and major concerns." In Ghana, he spoke about the need "to promote practical cooperation through strengthening traditional friendship." China's relationships with African countries are focused not just on business opportunities (although of course that's an important aspect) but also on gaining African diplomatic support for China's policies.
Whereas Abe seems content to have Japanese businesses make profits, China is actively pursuing soft power on the continent. This is nothing new for China. A 2013 study by Gustavo Flores-Macías and Sarah Kreps of Cornell University found that, since the mid-1990s, China has been quite successful at parlaying its trade relationships in Africa and Latin America into tangible foreign policy support. Japan doesn't seem to be seeking this sort of influence (at least, not yet). Instead, Abe is more openly concerned with increasing economic interactions. While China and Japan may look like they're competing in Africa, the two countries are actually playing different games.
Facing Triple-Dip Recession, France Set To Deploy US-Made Drones In West Africa | Zero Hedge

Facing Triple-Dip Recession, France Set To Deploy US-Made Drones In West Africa | Zero Hedge.
Take one serving of pre-triple dip recessionary France, add a dash of US-made drones, drop a pinch of Al Qaeda scapegoating and the now generic false flags, and let it all simmer in the latest global conflict in which the uninvited west has decided it is its moral role to intervene, and what you get is the latest hilarious development out of military superpower France, which is now preparing to unleash US drones in West Africa. The comedic possibilities one ends up with are countless.
France will deploy its first U.S.-made unarmed surveillance drones to West Africa by the end of the year, Defence Minister Jean-Yves Le Drian said on Thursday, as it seeks to "eliminate all traces of al Qaeda".
France's military intervention in Mali in January exposed its shortage of surveillance drones suitable for modern warfare, forcing it to rely on the United States to provide French commanders with intelligence from drones based in neighbouring Niger.
Paris said in June it would buy 12 Reaper reconnaissance drones built by privately owned U.S. firm General Atomics to eventually replace its EADS-made Harfang drones.
"Two drones that we have bought will be operational by the end of the year in Africa, in the Sahel. That is their main mission," Le Drian told Europe 1 radio.
Niger gave permission in January for U.S. surveillance drones to be stationed on its territory to improve intelligence on al Qaeda-linked Islamist fighters in the region. Le Drian said pockets of militants remained in Mali, whom Paris would go after. They included veteran Islamist commander Mokhtar Belmokhtar, who claimed responsibility for attacks in Niger and on Algeria's In Amenas gas plant earlier this year.
The humor does not end there:
"We have led successful counter-terrorism attacks in recent days and we will continue to act to eliminate all traces of al Qaeda," he said. "These terrorist groups come and go, regroup and then disperse, so we need to follow them closely. This will be the role of our forces in 2014. There will be 1,000 soldiers in Mali whose main mission will be counter-terrorism."
French forces killed 19 Islamist fighters during security operations in Mali's northern region of Timbuktu earlier this month.
France intervened in Mali at the start of the year as Islamist forces, who seized control of the north in the confusion following a military coup in March 2012, pushed towards the capital Bamako.
Their advance lifted Mali to the forefront of U.S. and European security concerns, with fears the Islamists would turn the country into a base for international attacks.
Such pristine, unrequited nobility…
Of course, what was not mentioned anywhere, is that France, with its multi-decade high unemployment, is on the verge of a recession. And not just any recession, but a triple-dip, which would make it Europe's first country to undergo a triple dip in the Eurozone's history. So what is this socialist paradise to do? Why read chapter 1 of Keynes for Idiots of course: when in depression, start – or escalate – a war.
Q.E.D.

I'm happy to announce that my story, "A Quick Getaway," is included in the new anthology by Pantheon Magazine. Isn't the cover beautiful and haunting?
It's available for sale from Amazon. Here's the description: Be changed.GORGON: STORIES OF EMERGENCE contains 42 transformative stories spanning all genres from both emerging and new voices alike, with all new stories by Gwendolyn Kiste, Richard Thomas, Annie Neugebauer, Eden Royce, Beth Cato, D.A. Xiaolin Spires, Maria Haskins, Carina Bissett, Julie C. Day, A.T. Greenblatt, and more, and featuring 10 illustrations by Carrion House.
For two months now I've been promoting my debut novel, Walking Through Fire, through orders, interviews, and readings. I made sure copies were in the local library and I gave a talk to the local Rotary Club. I spoke on panels at the Baltimore Book Festival and I'm participating at the World Fantasy Convention. I will attend Charm City Spec as an author instead of an audience member. So, there are a lot more events, but we are making progress in introducing my book to the world.
AND, Walking Through Fire was longlisted by Booknest for Best Debut Novel of 2018. The prize was an engraved sword so I'm pretty steamed that I didn't win…(just kidding).
I will be in costume on Halloween as part of Charm City Spec's reading series. The reading is at Bird in Hand, Charles Village Baltimore and starts at 7pm. Sam J. Miller (The Art of Starving and Blackfish City) and Julie C. Day (Uncommon Miracles) will also be reading.
Then I will commute to the Inner Harbor Thursday through Sunday to attend the World Fantasy Convention. My reading is at 4:30 PM on Friday.
On Saturday I will leave the convention to drive to Towson and I will sign copies of Walking Through Fire at Ukazoo Books (8641 Loch Raven Blvd.) from 3:30-5pm. Then I will join my family to celebrate my son's birthday.
On November 7th I'll drive to Hagerstown Community College in western Maryland for an author event: reading, answering questions from the writing students, and judging an impromptu poetry contest (or so I've been promised).
Thank you to everyone who purchased a copy, attends a reading, or leaves a review on Amazon. There are other novels that have huge marketing machines, or big publishers, but my little story is making progress. Thank you for believing in me!
Writing-wise I've hit some milestones this year.
My book, Walking Through Fire, is finally out in the world. Thank you to everyone who purchased a copy! We get to have fun now! Last night was firestorm yoga and the audience was as silly as I was — we had a lot of laughs as I led a class with poses modified to reflect the story in Walking Through Fire. The next event is Friday the 14th at Barnes and Noble in Bel Air, Maryland. And, on September 18th we will have a PARTY at Julie Ellyn Designs on Main Street in Bel Air. Special cupcakes, you ask? Maaayyybe.
All events have details here.
Now, I need you to do one more thing: If you liked Walking Through Fire then please, please, please leave a review on Amazon and Goodreads. Even just rating with stars gets the Amazon AI to recognize traffic and then boosts the page higher on a search results list.
We are getting noticed, though. Check out this review from Fantasy Hive. AND, I have an interview with S. H. Harrison. And, I have a video chat with The Richard Wilmore Show.
The book will also be available in bookstores starting September 4th, 2018.
I've set up some local places where I'll sign books and do readings. I hope you can join me!
Yoga Instructor and Fantasy Author Sherri Woosley will teach a special twenty-minute yoga class inspired by her novel WALKING THROUGH FIRE. The class will be followed by a reading. If you have a book, please bring to have it signed.
The bookstore isn't hosting readings at this time, but I will be present and happy to sign or discuss the book.
Come listen to a reading from Walking Through Fire in a shop that features beautiful handmade jewelry as well as other unique gifts made by artisans from around the country. Light refreshments will be served.
I'm working on a list of readings and signings and will share soon.
Please, if you are on Goodreads add my book to your "to-read" list.
Why should you do these things? Well, remember THIS post? But, there are other reasons too. The CRITTERS in my novel deserve their own post.
Anyway, I say all this because OF COURSE animals are going to be a big part of my world-building. Energy follows ley lines and causes changes that… Hey! I don't want to give too much away, though. There's a quiz below to tell you who your perfect "pet" would be, but DON'T READ ANY FARTHER IF YOU WANT TO BE SURPRISED WHEN READING.
Do you want a pet that requires more or less attention?
B) I have a couple hours every day.
2. How important is obedience from your pet?
A) Obedience is nice, but love is more important.
B) I need obedience so I can trust my pet.
C) Well, maybe obedience is overrated.
D) Who needs a pet who does tricks?
3. How important is it that your pet be housetrained?
B) Accidents are unacceptable. We can work on manners.
D) I'm willing to change my pet's water.
E). Nope. Never coming in my house anyway.
4. How traditional do you want your pet to be?
5. Do you want your pet to like you?
B) I want my pet to respect me.
C) I'd like my pet to recognize my voice, at least.
D) It's okay if my pet doesn't even know I'm home.
E) My pet and I will be actively avoiding each other.
Look, you guys have done magazine quizzes before. You know what to do. Whichever letter you choose the most often corresponds to your perfect "Misbegotten" pet.
A) Dido — a white female wolf who keeps Caesar "in the friend zone." She's elegant, maternal, and protective. With the right person, she's not above snuggling. Dido is highly intelligent, but discerning about who she'll love. She's loyal to a fault and will give everything for her special one.
B) Caesar — a solid black male wolf. He's an alpha who will keep you safe by attacking promptly and without remorse. He is stoic, but might come across as arrogant. He's not into being cuddled, but will consent to sit beside you when, and if, he chooses. He's a soldier with perfect posture. It's not his fault that he's so damn handsome.
C) Saki — a penguin-turtle who helps Tamaki hold on to her sanity through many terrible experiences. She excels at being quiet and her fur is soft to the touch, but she'll retreat inside her shell when she needs some alone time. She needs a lot of alone time.
D) Zombie horseshoe crabs — these are kind of the equivalent of those frog kits where you send away for the tadpoles. They don't require a lot of maintenance because they are already dead, but they do drift through the water, preferably brackish water like that found in the Chesapeake Bay, especially when in the presence of etemuu. You can have one or a whole swarm. Warning: under the right circumstances they can be dangerous to humans.
E)Two-headed Moose — This guy is often misunderstood, probably because he is truly of two minds. Like a Gemini, this BIG fella has a good side, purely vegetarian. And then he has the other side, devilish side, literally. His second head, the one growing from his shoulder, would like to spear anyone and everyone. He'll definitely get your friends attention. Warning: Hire a professional animal trainer for this pet.
So, ready to hit the pet store and buy supplies? Post in the comments which pet was right for you.
A couple of notes. The wolves and moose pictures all came from a World Wildlife Fund calendar a couple years ago — and I'm sorry I don't have the specific photographer's name to acknowledge him or her.
I've ordered bookmarks to give out at readings/signings and they will feature the cover art for Walking Through Fire on one side and Amelia's design on the other side.
Let me know which pet you chose!
Hello, Friends. It's been…a chaotic couple of months, but I wanted to focus on some positive news. Would you like to see the amazing cover for my debut novel, Walking Through Fire?
I love this. We have Rachel and Adam standing in front of downtown Baltimore and a dragon in the flames overhead. Everything I wanted.
I have some other BIG news. My novel releases September 4th, 2018, BUT IT IS NOW AVAILABLE FOR PRE-ORDER.

When customers, particularly VMware administrators, deploy SL block storage LUNs (with names like IBM##SEL#######_###) and set them up as iSCSI volumes in ESXi, of course the ESXi volume name looks like naa.600a098038303747322449756872716a . Since we know the first 8 characters of the string are the vendor OUI, we know that the remaining characters, in this case 38303747322449756872716a, is the LUN serial number. But there is no visibility in either the customer portal or in IMS to show a mapping between the IBMSEL##etc block storage LUN ID and its serial number. This means that determining which ESXi naa. iSCSI volume maps to which IBMSEL##etc block storage LUN, cannot be directly done and can only be determined via guesswork, trial-and-error, or by having IBM Cloud Support reach out to the Block Storage team to have them pull the LUN/s information so that we can provide the pairings of block storage LUN IDs and their serial numbers to customers. The ask is to have the block storage LUNs show their serial numbers in the portal, in IMS, or both.

1120 Denny Way is a complex of two high-rise residential buildings that are under construction in South Lake Union, Seattle, Washington, United States. The buildings will both be 41 stories tall, with a total of 1,179 apartments, and connected by a 12-story podium with retail and amenity space. 1120 Denny Way is being developed by Onni Group, which is also redeveloping the adjacent Seattle Times Building site. The project began construction in 2017 and is planned to be completed in 2021.
The Seattle Times Company acquired much of its property in the late 1920s, prior to the construction of its headquarters building in 1931. The lot immediately south of the headquarters, facing Denny Way, was converted to a parking lot with a small park at its northeast corner. The company sought to redevelop the lot into a new office building in the 1990s, as part of a cancelled expansion project.[3] The Times Company put the parking lot up for sale in 2011, as part of its plans to sell its headquarters to private developers.[4]
In July 2013, The Times Company announced that it had sold the block, along with the adjoining headquarters, to Onni Group for $62.5 million.[5] The following year, Onni submitted designs for a four-tower project with 1,950 residential units on the two blocks, including a pair of 40-story towers on the Denny block.[6] The proposal included removal of the Seattle Times Park, which sparked outcry from nearby residents and local preservationist Peter Steinbrueck.[7] A revised plan to preserve the park was approved in July 2014, in exchange for raised building heights on the north block.[8][9] The project was approved in 2016 and began construction in early 2017.[10] It is scheduled to be completed in 2020.[11] As of May 2020[update], the project is running 15 months behind schedule due to a reconfiguration of the penthouses and the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic.[12]
When completed, 1120 Denny Way will be one of the largest residential projects in the city's history.[13] The complex includes a 41-story, 425-foot-tall (130 m) tower on the northwest corner of the block, facing Boren Avenue and John Street; a 41-story, 415-foot-tall (126 m) tower on the southeast corner, facing Denny Way and Fairview Avenue; and a 12-story podium on the southwest corner, facing Denny Way and Boren Avenue. The northeast corner is the historic Seattle Times Park, which will be expanded to accommodate new public spaces around the project.[1]
The project will have 1,179 residential units, designed to either become apartments or condominiums,[14] 28,000 square feet (2,600 m2) of retail space, and 1,461 underground parking spaces.[1][15] The podium will include multiple landscaped rooftop decks, as well as two outdoor swimming pools, garden spaces, a solarium, and a children's play area.[15] The podium's exterior will also include historic headlines from The Seattle Times etched into the facade between floors.[16] Early proposals for the complex included the use of a district heating system to save energy.[17]

EGAG suggestions for response to Heathrow Airpace and Future Operations Consultation – summary
Heathrow Consultation Questionnaire DANGER for Englefield Green
Summary version
Sample copy of points you may wish to include using your own words whatever your views.
Englefield Green Action Group (EGAG) supports a vibrant and better Heathrow but not an expanded one. The third runway is seeking to put the equivalent of the same number of flights as at Gatwick on top of their existing 480k flights. We continue to be opposed to a third runway at Heathrow. Nothing in our response should be taken as support for the new runway.
1.Managing noise for an expanded Heathrow.
Draft proposal for a noise objective: To limit and, where possible, reduce the effects on health and quality of life and deliver regular breaks from scheduled flights for our communities during the day and night. We need to do this whilst making sure the measures we put in place are proportionate and cost effective
1a.Do you support our proposals for a noise objective?
No X
Don't know
1b. The principle of limiting noise effects is positive. However the devil is always in the detail. Phrases such as "where possible" are much too vague and lack clarity. We would like to see much more ambitious statements such as "The objective will be that noise will be limited to no more than present in currently overflown areas and where there is no other alternative the principle of equitable sharing and dispersal across design envelopes will be practiced"
The number of dispersed routes within each Noise Preferential Route (NPR) should be at the maximum consistent with safety – Heathrow are suggesting three but our view is that this could be increased to six which would give a fairer distribution and avoid what the Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) have called "noise canyons" Locally we call them noise sewers!
The phrase commensurate and cost effective again begs the question of "whose judgment?" The balance of commerciality and community interests is critical. Communities believe that these interests are weighted too much towards the airline sector. Their gain from a third runway and Performance Based Navigation (PBN) far outweighs the trade off for less noise on the ground for those communities overflown.
This consultation does not give clear details on where the new flight paths will be and as such is inadequate.
We believe that there should be a noise target on a tapering scale to reach lower levels as proposed by the World Health Organisation (WHO). The improvements on operating procedures and improved technology should be focused on noise reduction on the ground rather than improved commercial benefits for the airline sector. The proposed noise envelopes require full revision so that planes are flying at the highest possible levels over communities surrounding Heathrow. The Department of Transport (DfT) should ensure that health impacts are minimised and trump commercial considerations of the airline sector. There needs to be a better study of the health impact of the consequences of the third runway, and flight concentration. We are surprised that we are unaware whether the Department of Health has published a report on these health impacts.
1c. Please provide any comments you have on our proposals for a noise objective.
No additional comments
2. Respite
2. Would you prefer to have longer periods of respite less frequently (all day on some days but no relief on other days) or a shorter period of respite ( e.g. for 4-5 hours) every day? Please tick one of the following options.
We regard this question similar to "which arm do you want removed/ do you want to die by knife or by gun?"
Our view is that we do not wish to have any less respite than is currently available for those who are overflown on a two-runway configuration. We believe that if a third runway is built then respite will be reduced from a half day to a quarter. We would ask Heathrow to clarify this. Again until the exact flight paths are known the full impact of alternation is not clear.
In principle we believe longer periods of respite every day are preferable.
2b. Please tell us the reasons for your preference.
Over the past 10 years aircraft have moved 400 metres closer and are flying lower over Englefield Green. The latest draft report by consultants hired by Heathrow show aircraft are now a further 200 metres closer and lower still. We oppose this gradual creep and demand that flight paths and heights go back to where they were 10 years ago.
2c. Please provide any other comments or suggestions you have on runway and airspace alternation.
A longer period of respite but not every day
A shorter period of respite every day
I don't know X
It is important that any new flight paths are far away from each other for respite to be meaningful. Our view is that within each noise envelope the maximum number of departure routes, consistent with safety, be introduced. We believe this should be at least six and not three as proposed by Heathrow.
A simple, understandable scheme is important.
Wherever possible, departures and arrivals should not fly over the same areas, i.e. areas that have departures flying over them on westerlies should not have arrivals landing over them when there are easterlies. Otherwise there would never be respite for these communities when the wind changed.
3.Directional Preference.
3a. Should we prefer westerly operations during the day and easterly operations at night to reduce the total number of people affected by noise?
Don't know x
3b. Please tell us the reasons for your answer.
Currently the broad split of 70/30% on westerly/easterlies is generally a matter of climate/wind strength. The suggestion that the change to a more balanced mix would be a good option for the majority in Englefield Green but would be opposed by other areas. However the principle of fair distribution is part of our overall supported policy.
3c. Should we sometimes intervene to change the direction of arriving and departing aircraft to provide relief from prolonged periods of operating in one direction – even if that means slightly increasing the number of people affected by noise?
There should be no increase in noise for those currently overflown.
3d. Please tell us the reasons for your answer.
The overriding principle must be, to ensure that there are no more concentrated routes overflying Englefield Green than is at present suffered by residents.
We understand that No Preference has a fairness ring about it and that managed preference could allow Heathrow, wind conditions permitting, to switch the direction of the aircraft, albeit for just a short period, to allow residents to get a break from a unusually long period of the easterly or westerly operations.
3e. Please provide any other comments or suggestions you have on directional preference.
Directional preference gives "carte blanche" to Heathrow to affect people's lives, which is a major concern. If this is agreed by the CAA, we would insist on a quarterly report on the facts as it would be unfair for any one community to be adversely affected by changes, in say, the summer months when residents tend to spend time outdoors as opposed to winter months where noise may be minimised by insulation.
4. Night Flights
4.a.To help inform our consideration of the options, we want to know whether you would prefer for us to:
Option 1 – Use one runway for scheduled arrivals from 5.30am (runway time 5.15am)
Option 2 – Use two runways for scheduled arrivals from 5.45am (runway time 5.30am)
X I don't know
4b. Please tell us the reasons for your preference
Dealing with departures only, the World Health Organisation ( WHO ) have said that in order to protect good health, there is a requirement for 8 hours uninterrupted sleep. The Transport Select Committee (TSC) recommendation was for a minimum of 7.5 hours. The local view is that the night flight quota should not be increased from the current absolute number.
Earlier flights than those currently should be opposed as that has a direct impact on sleep patterns of those being overflown. The consultation says nothing about whether there is a plan to change the time of first departures, which we would oppose.
4c. Please provide any other comments or suggestions you might have on early morning arrivals.
As above.
We would oppose any earlier start time for departures.
5.Other night Restrictions.
5a. Please provide any comments or suggestions on how we should encourage the use of the quietest type of aircraft at night (outside of the proposed scheduled night flight ban).
Quieter planes should be encouraged but their heights should not be reduced for commercial advantage but kept at least to the same height or indeed at higher levels. Quieter planes should give quieter ground noise level. i.e. technology improvements should go to reducing noise on the ground.
Financial penalties for noisier and late flying planes should be at a level, which becomes commercially prohibitive. At present the charges are relatively modest so as not to be a real disincentive.
The operational reasons for delayed night flights should be restated and airlines, which constantly depart late because of poor baggage or admin systems, should be heavily penalised and prohibited.
5b. Please provide any other comments you have on night flights and restrictions:
Airspace – Local factors.
6. To answer this question, please look at the design envelopes for expansion online using the postcode checker or look at them in our document Heathrow's airspace design principles for expansion.
What sites or local factors should we be aware of in your area (or other areas of interest to you), when designing flight paths for an expanded three- runway Heathrow?
Please give enough information ( e.g. postcode, address or place name) for us to identify site(s) or local factor(s) you are referring to and tell us why you think it is important.
Englefield Green is 5 miles away from Heathrow and on a hill (280 feet above sea level). This makes it more vulnerable to noise than some other local areas as planes pass over at lower levels from the ground.
The area is an internationally known tourist location of national interest with the Runnymede slopes being the site of the Magna Carta signing, the American Bar Association, the John F Kennedy memorial, the National Trust (Writ in water Roundel), and the Jurors chairs.
On the brow of the hill is the Airforces Memorial, (AFM) where families from all parts of the world particularly from the Commonwealth visit to pay their respects to the 25 thousand men and women who were lost, presumed dead from the allied Airforces during World War II. This is an area of quiet contemplation and further over flights would be totally inappropriate and should be avoided.
We await the final noise report from Anderson Acoustics from the monitor in the AFM, which based on the draft will show planes lower, noisier and moved closer to Englefield Green.
Royal Holloway university has over 10k students, many of whom live in the Englefield Green community during term times but few are on the electoral roll and therefore are not on the population count. We believe this needs taken into account, as there is significant evidence showing the poorer learning outcomes by those affected by aircraft noise including health and stress levels.
7. Independent Parallel Approaches (or "IPAs")
IPA changes the existing status quo and it would be contrary to natural justice for areas west of the airport to be subjected to arrivals as well as the historic level of departures. Many residents moved from noise blighted areas to Englefield Green and made life decisions on where to live based on previous Government and Heathrow commitments that there would not be a third runway. It is a breach of good faith for this now to be reversed and for these communities to now have arrivals also inflicted upon them. We are therefore against IPA.
If the Government and Heathrow believe that noise levels are not unreasonable then there should be a wider compensation package of unblighted market price plus a premium of 25% for any properties where noise levels are increased by a level to be agreed. It is noted that a 3dBA increase is the equivalent of a doubling of noise. Such a scheme could be open for a period of say three years post a third runway being built and underwritten by government.
The introduction of PBN allowing aircraft to fly closer together will mean narrower, dedicated and concentrated flightpaths and the risk of creating "Noise Canyons" or 'noise sewers.' The effect of these changes again may mean that respite for some communities will be reduced which we oppose.
There is particular concern about the period between 6am and 7am when there will be 25 new flights on arrivals overhead Englefield Green.
8. Comments relating to the consultation.
The consultation cannot be said to be truly open as the options are predicated on a conclusion, which local communities do not support. The balance between the commercial interests of the airline sector and those overflown is unequal. The vested interests and the weight of the research and public relations machinery of Heathrow significantly overwhelm any input that residents are able to raise.
The current questionnaire implies that an expanded airport and PBN is good for those overflown and unless communities are aware of the hidden consequences, then it has to be said that, yet again, the airline sector is being disingenuous.
The simple facts should show current and future levels of noise and air pollution, the current level of road congestion and the net amount of public finance that will be required to back this flawed project are significant. The fact that clear flightpaths and the proposed breaking of the existing cap of 480k flights by a further 25k flights per annum from Heathrow were not clear when parliament was asked to vote on the scheme is yet another example of why people have a profound concern for balance within the establishment and our democratic system.
Is there a cap on the number of flights if a third runway goes ahead?
9. Any other comments.
Some parts of the airline industry have said that they cannot concede matters such as world-class ascent and descent levels and real night time bans (not merely scheduled night time bans). They say both will work against their commercial interests and therefore there is no incentive for them to expand. The counter to this is that if they truly support their growth then the trade off for a further 260k flights has to be a much bigger concern for the rights of those overflown. It is for the government to make the balance more even handed and hold the airline sector to account. Warm words will not be good enough there has to be statutory force.
10. Please give us your feedback on this consultation (such as the documents, website or events)
EGAG is disappointed that a consultation event was held in The Hythe Centre, Staines and no event was held in Englefield Green, an area that is much more likely to be affected than most, given its topography and proximity to the airport and the moving and lowering of the flight paths over time more towards Englefield Green.
With regard to the Audio Visual (AV) exhibit, we don't believe this reflected adequately the indoors experience with the windows open or closed. In reality there was no discernable difference between the windows closed and with the sound installation included.
The most significant omission from the AV exhibit was the total lack of the portrayal of directly overhead PBN concentrated flight paths, that this whole Heathrow Consultation is predicated on, to reflect the flight path changes with aircraft flying over at 60 seconds intervals, above 65 dBs, as they will be with the 3rd runway and as was historically experienced with the 2014 concentrated PBN trial flights debacle.
A further significant omission with the AV exhibit was there was no attempt to demonstrate the AV experience when being outside, attempting to enjoy the amenity of your garden or recreational enjoyment of an outside open space, so important for health and wellbeing.
The presentations, as ever, were very professional and continue to explore the positives for the airline sector but conceal the consequences for local communities in terms of the environmental harm caused, giving instead warm words to the public without the balance of the reality that a minimum of 260,000 additional flights would cause, causing more air and noise pollution, 54,000 additional vehicle journeys per day to the airport compounding congestion for the southern half of the UK. If this project can be delivered both feasibly and more important politically then the distribution of this pollution must be equitable and shared out to everyone and it will be a travesty of natural justice if there is an unbalanced burden taken by any one community.
The website and the consultation documents are written in plain English but people have found the size and the complexity of the consultation daunting. There is still a strong sense of distrust with Heathrow arising from past broken promises.

January 31, 2017 February 2, 2017 by Alex
Novel: Suspenseful/ tense/ well-done, though loses steam in final third.
Film: A visual barrage of beauty and horror which can't save the film from its non-existent story.
I purchased the film Ex Machina and sat there on my couch watching the previews as the Blu Ray player ticked on. An eclectic array of interesting films—a welcomed joy. But one particular film burrowed into my mind and disseminated through its every winding synapse like some dark poison. Scarlett Johansson's wan expression as she walked through gloomy doorways in a seductive manner, curious men following at her rear. A spectacular shot of her in the fetal position amongst swaying trees. Gloomy. Grey swept. And finally, her running through the trees of a dense forest, features describing the fear of finality. I knew I would have to see it, regardless of what the standardized reviews said of it.
By the preview's end, I had already begun the search. As luck would have it, Under the Skin was first a novel. This is not shocking. So many movies are novels. In fact, one has to wonder where the film industry would be without its less celebrated partner in crime. It seems most films of original content tend to fail–they lose story, character development, and structure. They become aimless and purposeless. And thus here we are, a decade of remakes and comic book films while the original ones are disseminated through various other outlets, and indeed, mediums. As it was, I decided I would let the words of the page work their magic on my mind before I'd allow the pictures on the screen to dazzle my eyes. Eyes are so often deceived.
There is no easy way to describe Under the Skin as a novel without spoiling it, so if you plan on reading it, then all you need to know is that the novel closely follows a young, attractive girl named Isserley. She drives her car up and down a highway in Ireland like something predatory, offering hitchers of solid physique a lift. That is all you need to know, should you not want the novel spoiled.
The retelling which spoils the novel begins NOW. The novel is written in third person with the inner thoughts of Isserley often pressing out from the page. The perspective does rotate occasionally, as Michel Faber, the author, routinely immerses us in the perspective of the hitcher Isserley has procured. Most all the hitchers notice her exceptional breasts, the cleavage of which she is not averse to exposing despite it being the dead of winter. Often they catalogue the mysterious size of her glasses, so big as to make her eyes appear magnified to humorous proportions. She sits with a bizarre, unnatural posture. Rigid. Stiff. Also off note, Isserley has scars in curious places. Her elbows and wrists. She's an interesting, beautiful creature, if not a bit strange.
Isserley also catalogues the details of the hitchers in her passenger seat. This back and forth perspective realignment is an interesting element in writing that, when used well, often illuminates more than just thought. It can be a character study, a look at the humanity of people. And Faber does well with that in this novel, though I am almost never a fan of the method.
Before deciding on the hitcher's fate, Isserley questions them on the basics–where are they going; how long have they been on the road–and then moves beneath the surface to expose the details of their life. Single. Married. Kids. No kids. Job. Jobless. She's searching for those who may not be missed immediately, players from the fringe of society–a club hitchers so often belong to. If Isserley finds that the human in the passenger seat suits her needs she flips a small switch beside the steering wheel and the man in the passenger seat slumps over, their head resting on her shoulder. She pulls over and toggles another switch which makes the windows of the car impossible for an outsider to see through, then she procures a wig and glasses and places them on the hitcher. She toggles the switch for the windows and starts the car and drives back to a farm at the appropriate speed. Always at the appropriate speed.
This carries on for the first third of the novel—gathering hitchers, returning them to a farm.
The film is more dissimilar from the novel than it is similar. Isserley dons the title of Laura, though I don't recall her name ever being uttered in the film. She pilots a van through city streets near dusk, searching for men–though not necessarily impressive in stature, as is her task in the novel–she may convince to hop in her car, her looks no doubt an aid to her cause. Her most common tactic is to ask for directions, then convince the would-be walker to accompany her. Once she has the passenger in the car, she engages in small talk. There is very little dialogue in the film–perhaps due to the challenge that is deciphering the Irish accent. She delivers the passengers back to a forlorn shack of a house and the two then proceed through a dark doorway. The room is pitched in black, a reflection of them on the ground, as though they are atop black glass. The man follows behind as Laura undresses, dropping her clothes on the floor. The man too undresses as he walks. Somewhere in his approach he descends into the floor, which is revealed to be water. Laura then leaves the room, the man left to look up from some sort of clear prison as she walks back over the solid, transparent floor.
There are clues throughout the first section of the novel which encourage the reader to believe all is not what it seems. She is not a serial killer with fancy gear. She is something else. The scarring. The massive eyes. Her want for muscular men, which she and the other men at the farm begin to refer to as Vodsels.
The lead that had been buried isn't a particularly stunning or satisfying pay off, but it works well enough. She is a creature from another planet, her form genetically modified to fit in the human husk she's been ensconced in. Her eyes were the lone feature that couldn't be altered, which is why she wears the comically large glasses, so viewers will assume her eyes are bizarrely large courtesy the lenses' magnification. At the novel's midpoint, she gets word that a fellow named Amless Vess will be arriving to the farm. Vess is the heir to the company she works for—her business of collecting humans. A radical back on his home planet, Amless is curious to know what happens at this bizarre animal farm. Isserley has no desire to meet him.
Upon arrival, Amless sets free some Vodsels. Men who have been shaved, trimmed, neutered and had their tongues removed. They are no longer the men they were, their humanity stripped from them through suffering in their cages. Through the torture they endure to be nothing more than tasty sustenance for the Alien race on a planet far away.
Isserley and the farmer round up the freed Vodsels from around the farm; then she confronts Amless. The Alien race to which she belongs are similar to canines in appearance, and indeed, sight of Amless enraptures her to his furred beauty. His long limbs and lush pelt and glorious eyes.
This key plot point in the novel fails to manifest in the film. Amless never arrives; there is no mention of him. There is no Vodsel revelation, save for a rather cryptic scene beneath water which I will not attempt to describe. Instead, Laura continues to collect men unrepentantly until she picks up a rather bizarre looking fellow with a mutated face. Her encounter with this man serves to be the equivalent revelatory experience Amless provides Isserley in the novel—the intent is to provide our collector a moral weight as to what she is doing. Taking lives.
The next important plot point is that of rape. Isserley is raped by a hitcher she picks up; Laura by a man in the woods. The weight of the moment fails to take shape in the film. In the novel, Isserley is devastated by it, though she won't admit as much. Her behavior becomes erratic; she begins to fear for her safety and questions her ability to do her job—something she takes great pride in. She is a professional, through and through, and the crushing notion that she can no longer perform her job is almost her undoing.
In the film, Laura flees to the woods after failing to deliver the man with the mutated face. She fears who may come looking for her—perhaps her employer; just a man on a motorcycle gazing out over immense, untouched vistas which almost look otherworldly. Here she runs into a logger who attempts to rape her. As he claws at her, her husk like layer of skin begins to peel away, revealing a blackened alien. Then he kills her.
The book also reaches its finality in a somewhat unsatisfying manner. A car crash, and so afraid is Isserley of being discovered by authorities that she triggers a controlled explosion. End.
Arthouse films appeal to me. I love searching for the complex messages the writer/director try and deliver through visuals. So often your eyes are in for a spectacular array of imagery that won't lodge itself from your mind's eye for a good long while. And indeed, Under the Skin is no different. The images still remain with me. However, having read the book—one I really appreciate: beautiful, almost lyrical prose, vivid characters, etc.—I wish the film would have hung closer to the novel's plot line. The plot was well engineered—trying to fill the narrative gaps with images as opposed to dialogue and action failed to deliver a cohesive story. Having said that, it should be viewed for the visual feast. A flood of disturbingly beautiful imagery which would make most movies of vast budget envious. The film is very much in the vein of Eraserhead—a film which has been puzzled over for nigh half a century.

Pastor Pristine popularly known as Pristine Ode is a pastor at pulpit and at the same time at music. He's known to be one of the fathers of contemporary gospel music in Benue State.
With several songs of which so many are church anthems today, to his credit, Pastor Pristine has built for himself a colony where his name has been imprinted on the sands of time. An indelible mark that will last a lifetime.
A point would come in a man's life that he would have to sit down and take a proper walk through memory lane in order to count and recount his past years, for through this, he's enabled to understand how much he has drank from the cup of grace.
Without much ado, let me quickly reveal to you below how Pastor Pristine decided to announce his birthday  today.
Coming from a friends wedding in Lokoja, Lizzy Alabi's in 2008, around 9pm in between Kadaroko and Makurdi, bad elements were robbing, for about 3 minutes, we saw no vehicle coming from our front, thank God to an unknown villager that knew what was happening, he stayed very close to the road and kept on flashing his touch light and our driver decoded and we turned back. We later saw those that were robbed packing their goods into their vehicle after the criminals dispatched.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MY SELF.

Miscellaneous News Report Palestine
2700 South Korean rally in Bethlehem in support to the Palestinian Cause
More than 2700 South Korean arrived in Bethlehem Monday and rallied in the streets of Bethlehem in support and solidarity with the Palestinian cause and their struggle under against the occupation.
The protestors carrying, Palestinian and Korean flags, marched from Jerusalem and headed towards Bethlehem, and chanted slogans for peace and in support to the Palestinians in their struggle against the occupation.
The final destination of the march was at the Manger Square in Bethlehem where they were joined by hundreds of Palestinians and several officials in the city including Mitri Adu Aita, Minister of Tourism in the P.A. and mayors of Bethlehem , Beit Sahour and Beit Jala, in addition to several representatives of Palestinian factions.
Abu Aita added that such protests of solidarity are a great help to the Palestinians and their leadership, which urges them to hold on to their commitments for real and just peace.
Abu Aita urged the participants to tell their people in their country about the situation in Palestine and deliver the true image of what is going on in the occupied territories.
Mr. Hanna Nasser, Mayor of Bethlehem welcomes the participants who came to support the Palestinians describing this day as a "Historic Day" of solidarity, which will be remembered forever, according to Nasser .
Nasser, also stressed the fact that living in peace is based on dignity and freedom, and that if the Israeli government continues its policy of land expropriation and construction the Separation Wall, in addition to continuous invasions again the Palestinian areas, talking about peace will then by a sort of illusion.
A Korean participant said that this procession is to support the Palestinians and urge them to continue their efforts for peace amidst the continue military escalation.
"We came here from far away, to carry a message of peace and hope, we came to Jerusalem , the city pf peace, the city of the three faiths, we came to celebrate peace in the city which should be the role model of peace instead of war", the participant said.
This wide activity is part of the Palestinian-Korean Friendship activities launched August 5 th , 2004.
