For centuries, you and your clan ruled the night with fear and deadly grace, driving the humans before you like cattle. Now, the clan war has left you desiccated and drained of life, with only a remnant of your former strength. But the war isn't over—and it won't be until you've destroyed your rivals forever.
Lead your clan to victory in Blood Bound, a social game of deduction, bluffing, and vampiric intrigue for six to twelve players. During the game, you and the players on your team embody a clan of vampires who must work together to capture the leader of a rival clan. The catch? You may never know who is your ally and who is your enemy until it's far too late. Among the vampire clans, treachery abounds and betrayal is inevitable. Will you employ negotiation or resort to betrayal and deceit to root out your rivals?
At the beginning of the game, the stage is immediately set for paranoia and deception to rule the day. Each player is secretly dealt a character card identifying them as a member of the Gargoyle or Phoenix clan. Gargoyle and Phoenix supporters are equally distributed, so a six-player game will have three members of each clan. A game with an odd number of players adds the nefarious Inquisitor, who plays by his own rules, bringing the zeal of the Inquisition to bear against both vampire clans. If the Inquisitor wins, both clans lose.
Every character card offers a few crucial pieces of information—the clan you belong to, your rank in that clan, two affiliation icons, and a clue in the lower right corner of the card. In most cases (but not all), the clue denotes which clan you belong to. Before the game begins, each player shows his clue to the player on his left. Thus, the game begins with everyone knowing exactly two pieces of information: his own identity and the probable allegiance of one other player. It's not much to go on, but it's more than enough to foster an atmosphere of intrigue and lies.
After everyone has received an identity, one person is randomly assigned the dagger. During play, the player holding the dagger is the active player, and they must choose to pass or attack. If you pass, you simply give the dagger to another player, and your turn ends. The player receiving the dagger becomes the next active player and faces the same choice to attack or pass!
Passing may keep you out of the spotlight, but attacking is the only way to discover more information about the other players. When you attack, you choose another player and force them to suffer a wound. Suffering a wound brings you closer to death, and it also forces you to reveal one piece of information to everyone at the table by taking one of your affiliation tokens or your rank token. An affiliation token hints at your clan identity, while the rank token indicates your status—the lower the number, the higher your rank. Whoever has the lowest number within your clan is your clan's leader—but at the beginning of the game, no one, not even your fellow clan members, will know your identity as the leader. You may not even know for sure that you are the leader!
By attacking and forcing others to suffer wounds, you start to get a sense of your teammates and your rivals. Meanwhile, you want to avoid being attacked yourself. Suffering wounds forces you to disclose information, and revealing any information about yourself is dangerous. It can make you a target for your rivals, or even a member of your own clan who believes you're lying. You may curry good favor by passing the dagger, or you may try to convince other players to attack your rivals on your behalf. Anything works, so long as it deflects attention from you!
In Blood Bound, no two players are alike, and everyone has something to hide. For instance, each player's identity accords him a unique ability, which is only triggered the moment he reveals his rank token. Although revealing your rank token gives up information, it also lets you use your ability to wreak havoc on enemy clan members or protect and heal your allies. Some characters, like the Assassin, force others to suffer wounds. Others, like the Guardian, protect a player of your choice.
For the most part, these abilities may only be used once per game, so your timing is essential. If you use your ability too early, you're forced to play the remainder of the game with your rank revealed, potentially making you a target. Wait too long, however, and you may not have time to use your ability before the game ends.
Terror rules in every game of Blood Bound—terror of what your enemies might know and terror of what you don't know. You need more information to win, but how will you get it? Will you lie, bribe, cajole, and threaten, or will you hide in the shadows, keeping your ears open and your mouth shut?
Gather your clan and destroy your enemies. Become a nocturnal predator in Blood Bound.

Grab two bottles and grip one close to the bottle cap, around the neck. Flip the other bottle upside down and interlock the bottle-cap grooves. Make sure your index finger is squeezing the bottle close to the upside-down cap. Using the top bottle as your lever and your finger as the fulcrum, push down so the cap pulls away from the bottom bottle. You may need to align the two caps a couple of times until you're a pro. You may get wet a couple of times. Eventually you'll get it. As a general rule, never try to open an imported bottle with an American twist-off. Instant disaster.


Hugo Charlemont (March 18, 1850 - April 18, 1939) was an Austrian painter. Hugo was born in Jemnice, Moravia. He was the son of the miniature painter Matthias Adolf Charlemont and the brother of the painters Eduard Charlemont (1848-1906) and Theodor Charlemont (1859-1938). Hugo's daughter Lilly Charlemont also was an artist.
From 1873 he studied art at the Academy in Vienna under Eduard von Lichtenfels. Charlemont was a painter of landscapes, still lifes, Genre subjects, animals and portraits. He died in Vienna.

In California a landlord is required to provide a safe living environment for the tenants and the law has been established under the California Civil Code. The failure of a landlord to provide such conditions can lead to violation of the law and impose civil and, at times, even criminal liability upon the landlord. This article shall outline the requirements imposed.
Under the California Civil Code, landlords of a property must ensure that certain conditions are met which make the living space habitable and safe for potential lessees. These conditions include ensuring proper electric, gas, and plumbing utilities, as well as installing proper locks and security systems. If a landlord fails to meet these requirements, the lessee has the option of deducting the costs of repair from his rent or vacating the premises with no constraints. A landlord can also be held liable for certain breaches of security that occur on his property, if the unsafe condition or act could have been foreseen or prevented.
A relatively famous series of cases held the landlord liable for the results of criminal acts suffered by tenants that were in part alleged to have been caused by failure to provide appropriate lighting and lock systems. The decisions of the courts advanced the theory that the landlord offers premises for rent for a profit and in providing that service, the landlord must assume the responsibility that the space provided for profit must be capable of providing basic safety and necessities of life. Put even more simply, if you want to earn money from providing living space, you have to provide living space that is livable and safe. The tenant, on the other hand, also assumes some responsibility for the condition of the premises, as described below.
Especially in commercial leases, many of the remedies available for the tenant are restricted or eliminated. The laws protecting residential tenants are usually harder to waive even in a lease. Review of the actual lease by competent legal counsel is recommended before relying on the remedies described below.
To occupy the premise as it was designed to be used, with separate portions for living, sleeping, cooking, etc.
Because the landlord has a duty to maintain the premise and carry out any and all necessary repairs, the landlord has the reasonable right to enter the premise to do so [CA Civil Code Sec. 1954].
If the landlord fails to maintain the property and conduct repairs upon the request of the tenant (generally the landlord is given a 30 day grace period), the tenant may perform the repair him or herself and subtract the cost from the rent owed, or he or she may vacate the premises and be freed from any outstanding obligations under his lease [CA Civil Code Sec. 1942].
Further, landlords are not permitted to collect rent for a property which they have failed to maintain on a substantial level [CA Civil Code Sec. 1942.4].
Note that the tenant has to be reasonable in the tenant's costs and efforts to make the repair. One cannot put in a three hundred dollar faucet to replace a one hundred dollar faucet without good cause. Note further that leases often restrict the tenant's rights in this area though the law normally voids those lease provisions for habitability repair.
California landlords are legally obligated to take the necessary measures to secure the premises in order to prevent foreseeable criminal acts in the area. Failure to do so may result in liability of significant proportions and the fact that a third party, such as a criminal, actually perpetrated the act does not necessarily eliminate the landlord's underlying liability for failure to protect the tenants reasonably. At the same time, landlords are not guarantors of the safety of their tenants or employees and if the landlord takes reasonable steps to provide a safe locale, liability will not be imposed for harm to tenants caused by third parties or unforeseen circumstances.
Some case law illustrates the law.
In Ann M. v. Pacific Plaza Shopping Center (1993), an employee sued a shopping center landlord after she was raped inside a tenant's store. The Supreme Court ruled that the landlord was not liable for negligence, and thereby established the importance of the landlord's ability to foresee that a criminal act may occur in the premises. The Court ruled that the landlord is only obligated to hire security guards for a shopping center if he has reasonable foresight that a crime may occur, based on the knowledge of prior similar acts of crime in the premises. Given that the landlord had recorded all prior criminal events and noticed no indication of similar events having taken place in the past, the Court ruled that the landlord could not foresee a 'violent criminal assault', and therefore, was not obligated to hire security guards.
IIn Medina v. Hillshore Partners (1995), the mother of a man who was killed by a gang near an apartment complex sued the landlord for negligence. The Court ruled that the landlord had no duty to the victim because the act occurred off the premises. Even though the plaintiff argued that the landlord's complex served as headquarters for the gang members and the landlord had already received complaints about the gang, the Court held that premises liability can be imposed on a landlord only when an act of crime occurs on the premises itself and not on an adjacent area.
In Debra S. Rosenbaum v. Security Bank Corporation (1996), a tenant was mugged on the street in front of her apartment and suffered several injuries. She sued the landlord claiming that he had failed to install sufficient lightingfixtures throughout the complex and the parking garage, leaving her with no choice but to park her car on the street, where she was mugged. The Court ruled that the landlord was not liable because the mugging occurred on a public street, and so, he was not responsible for the mugging occurring.
In Alcaraz v. Vece (1997), the plaintiff stepped on a water meter box with a broken or missing top located on the lawn in front of a rental property. The trial court initially ruled that the landlord was free from liability because the water meter box wasn't located on his property but on "an adjacent strip of land owned by the city". The Supreme Court then reversed the ruling saying that it must be taken into consideration whether or not the landlord had exercised control over the meter box, regardless of whether or not he owned the land. If in fact the landlord had some control in that adjacent piece of land and gained economic benefit from that property, he could be held potentially liable for failing to notify the plaintiff of the hazard.
A landlord can also be held liable when a tenant's dog bites a person if the landlord had prior knowledge to theviciousness of the dog and could have taken steps to remove the dog to avoid injury. If the landlord owns commercialproperty, he has a duty to inspect the property and remove the dangerous factor. If the landlord owns residential property, he does not need to inspect the property to discover any dangerous factor, but once he has knowledge of a threat, he has the duty to take the necessary steps [Uccello v. Laudenslayer (1975)].
Note that a landlord can even be held liable if the event takes place away from the landlord's property, as in Donchin v. Guerrero (1995), where the court held that the landlord could be held liable for a tenant's dog attacking a person four blocks away from the property. The court recognized that the landlord may not have been able to prevent the tenant from taking the dog off the property, but if the dog escaped on its own due to defects in the property, the landlord could be held liable.
The theme of the law is not complex. If you intend to make a profit from renting living space, you will have to provide living accommodations that meet certain habitability conditions and if you do not, the tenant may make those repairs or terminate the leasehold. If you have allowed unsafe conditions to exist on premises within your control and foreseeable harm results, you may be liable. If the tenant is responsible for the condition in specified ways, the tenant is responsible.
In reality, most landlords want safe premises in good condition and most tenants do take care of their homes. Nevertheless, being a landlord is an active type of business that requires reasonable upgrades, repairs and inspections. As one client put it, "If I want to sit at home and count my returns, I need to invest in stocks. If I own a building, I have to keep it up." Yes.
Commercial leases are subject to different criteria since the courts are not as inclined to prohibit limitations on the right to repair that most leases provide and the employer is as likely to be liable as the landlord for unsafe work conditions. Note, however, that home offices are normally treated as residential leases. In all instances, the key for the landlord is to know what is happening with his or her property and to take appropriate steps to repair and maintain. Further, the wise landlord seeks to limit personal liability by appropriate insurance and limited liability entities owning the building.

Aruba, Avaya network switches vulnerable to SSL implementation flaws
Joe Uchill May 3, 2022
The Aruba 2930M (Image: Aruba Networks)
Several models of network switches across two major manufacturers suffer similar implementation problems of the same SSL library. Armis, the security firm that discovered the problem, had previously discovered similar problems in APC power supplies, and worries this problem will not be limited to power and networking.
"I can say approximately 50- or 60 percent of the devices we've checked using NanoSSL are vulnerable to the same type of vulnerabilities because it's very easy to make these mistakes," said Barak Hadad, head of research at Armis.
Mocana's NanoSSL library is widely used in internet of things (IoT) devices. Armis has not identified any problems in the library itself. Instead, the problems occur when data returned from the library is not properly validated and errors are not handled properly. Hadad said that the requirements for implementation are accurately described in the manuals for NanoSSL.
"But we all know developers. No one reads the manuals," said Hadad.
Armis worked with Mocana to make NanoSSL harder to misuse, both within the code and through vendor alerts. But legacy products may already have problems.
Armis is calling the switch vulnerabilities "TLStorm2.0." There are five CVEs in total, two in Aruba and three in Avaya.
The TLStorm2.0 bugs affected models from the Aruba product series 2530, 2540, 2920, 2930F, 2930M, 5400R, and 3810 and Avaya series ERS3500, ERS3600, ERS4900 and ERS5900.
The issues identified could be severe. Two of the issues identified in Avaya switches lead to remote code execution and one of the Aruba bugs allows attackers to break out of captive portals and hop from VLAN to VLAN.
Most of the vulnerabilities have been patched, according to Armis, and the ones that have not been have mitigations available. Users can check with Avaya here for and Aruba here.
TLStorm2.0 follows TLStorm, vulnerabilities in APC power backups. Taking advantage of misuse in the power backups, Armis was able to change how much power was flowing through a power supply and the waveform, and demonstrated they were able to set equipment ablaze through malicious surges of power.
Hadad said that NanoSSL implementation bugs likely extend far beyond network switches and universal power supplies.
"If vendors are using Mocana NanoSSL and want us to check if they're vulnerable, they can communicate with us and we will be happy to help," he said. "Also, we have a technical white paper that shows exactly how this misuse looks like in the code."

Just ten countries were responsible for three-quarters of a global surge in measles cases last year, the UN children's agency said Friday, including one of the world's wealthiest nations, France.
"This is a wakeup call. We have a safe, effective and inexpensive vaccine against a highly contagious disease – a vaccine that saved almost a million lives every year over the last two decades," said Henrietta Fore, executive director of UNICEF.
But the World Health Organization last year said cases worldwide had soared nearly 50 per cent in 2018, killing around 136,000 people.
Ukraine, the Philippines and Brazil saw the largest year-on-year increases. In Ukraine alone, there were 35,120 cases — nearly 30,000 more than in 2017.
Taken together, the ten nations accounting for 75 per cent of the increase from 2017 to 2018 account for only a tenth of the global population.
In the United States, there was a 559 per cent year-on-year increase in cases from 120 to 791.
The resurgence of the disease in some countries has been linked to medically baseless claims relating the measles vaccine to autism, which have been spread in part on social media by members of the so-called "anti-vax" movement.
The WHO last month listed "vaccine hesitancy" among the top 10 most pressing global health threats for 2019.
"Almost all of these cases are preventable, and yet children are getting infected even in places where there is simply no excuse," Fore said.
UN officials estimated that 92 per cent of the targeted children were jabbed during the one-week push, which ended on February 14.
Yemen also figured on UNICEF's "top 10" list of countries showing the largest increases last year in measles cases with a 316 per cent hike, from 2,101 cases in 2017 to 8,742 cases in 2018.
In Romania, reported cases dropped 89 per cent from 8,673 to 943, and in Indonesia, the number declined by 65 per cent from 11,389 to 3,995.
Nigeria, Pakistan, Italy and China also saw drops of 35 to 55 per cent.

Niagara Can Still Make Me All Misty
9/27/2005 — By Angela Matusik
Chad Hunt
Twist o' the Mist
Sure, the falls are nice and all, but it's the kitsch that wins this local's heart
By the time I was growing up there in the '70s and '80s, Niagara Falls had ceased to be the honeymoon icon of yesteryear. The region was economically depressed and famously polluted. Forget the 1953 Marilyn Monroe movie Niagara; my experience was better captured in the 1982 made-for-TV movie Lois Gibbs and the Love Canal. The chemical dump, which the government declared a hazard in 1978, was right in my family's backyard.
Though I happily escaped from the city about a decade later, I return for visits all the time. During the '90s, while the rest of the country was booming, Niagara seemed to sink deeper into a slump. Factories closed, storefronts were boarded up, and unemployment soared. It's only been the past few years--after some much-needed cleanups--that things are begining to improve. Now when I go back, I find myself in the middle of big crowds of tourists, rediscovering what makes the place so great.
There are actually two towns named Niagara Falls: the one in New York, where I grew up, and the one across the river, in Ontario. The grass is greener on the U.S. side, thanks to a state park designed by Frederick Law Olmsted. I've always been amazed at how close you can get to the Falls. In several spots, the edge is just a few feet away, with a guardrail that's only waist-high. I remember being a teenager, gazing into the churning rapids while listening to the Cure on a Walkman, dreaming of a more exciting life--like the one on the other side of the border. Niagara Falls, Ontario, had all the action: year-round amusement parks, wax museums, neon lights. As I grew older, I amended that list to include better music, stronger beer, and a lower drinking age.
A couple months ago, I brought my boyfriend, Chad, along to visit my family. The big news on the U.S. side is the Seneca Niagara Casino, in what used to be the convention center. But we figured we'd get a better return on our money at Twist o' the Mist, an ice cream stand next to the Rainbow Bridge. It's only been around for 11 years, but there's a retro charm--the building is shaped like a squat soft-serve cone--that the rest of the town is missing. Locals and tourists line up for oversize scoops of flavors like Super Hero, a mix of cherry bubblegum, lemon, and blue raspberry.
Chad and I rode the elevator down to Niagara's most famous attraction, the Maid of the Mist, a boat that takes you right to the grandest crashing point, Horseshoe Falls. I hadn't been onboard since high school, and I was sad to see that the sturdy yellow slickers have been replaced with blue, cellophane-like ponchos that made us look shrink-wrapped. But I was grateful for the protection at the turnaround, where it felt like we were in a typhoon. We did our best to blink through the billowing mist, while watching courageous geese dive for fish. It really is awesome.
Niagara may have lost its top-tier reputation in this country, but it still carries international appeal. Throughout the years, the area has drawn hordes of South Asian tourists, and its popularity has caught the attention of the local population, with savvy entrepreneurs opening curry stands near the Falls. On our boat ride, Chad and I were impressed with the number of nationalities aboard. One Syrian family told us that because of stricter visa laws since September 11, they weren't allowed to cross over to Canada. (That, along with the new casino, could explain a surge of visitors on the U.S. side.)
For Americans, the passage over the border remains a breeze--answer a few quick questions at the tollbooth and you're in. We planned to spend the night in Canada. All my life, I'd seen advertisements for heart-shaped whirlpool tubs, yet I'd never experienced one firsthand. Before settling into our motel, the Chalet Inn & Suites, Chad and I took a spin around Clifton Hill, Niagara Falls' version of Times Square. As a kid, I used to test my bravery at Canada's many wax museums. I'd force myself to shake hands with Frankenstein or get up close to gory historical scenes; I'll never forget Marie Antoinette's grisly beheading. I credit them for instilling in me a keen love for all things kitschy or macabre, like luaus and zombie movies.
Our visit coincided with the reopening of Louis Tussaud's Waxworks. Louis was the great-grandson of Madame, and his wax museum was the first one in town. Admission is $11; if you're in a silly mood, it's worth every penny. The glass barriers are gone, so now you can casually mingle with the assorted celebrities, examining every waxy pore on John Candy, Celine Dion, Pamela Anderson, and several versions of Mike Myers. (Canadians love nothing more than reminding people which stars are Canadian.) Despite the fun we had at Louis's place, we found Clifton Hill a bit overwhelming. Every inch of the short, steep strip is occupied by a splashy billboard or neon advertisement. It's hard to find a restaurant--or anything else--that isn't part of a franchise. We opted for one of the more charming ones, Montana's Cookhouse, a Western-themed smokehouse that serves decent barbecue.
Other than the wax museums, the Canadian side does have one thing going for it: the better view. Rainbows are a constant, and at night giant lights turn the Falls all sorts of colors. I was happy to see that the leaf-themed cast-iron guardrails are still there--I remembered them from the Marilyn Monroe movie, and they're one of the few remnants from the city's golden age. That and the heart-shaped tub: As we fought our way back to the motel through the throngs, it became more enticing with every step.

Review: Breaking Danger by Lisa Marie Rice
2 Comments	/ B REVIEWS, B+ Review, Paranormal Romance, Post-Apocalyptic, Romantic Suspense, Sci-Fi Romance / By Has
Where did you get the book: Edelwiess e-arc from publisher
Publisher: Avon
Release Date: Out now
Only one man and one woman can stop the world from burning in Breaking Danger, the thrilling final volume in Lisa Marie Rice's sexy Ghost Ops series, in which an elite super-secret military team must face down doomsday and protect the gifted women they love
Haven, a community of misfits and geniuses, is one of the few safe places remaining in a world on fire. Run by the Ghost Ops team, three dangerous, fearless, soldiers who were once betrayed and disgraced, will fiercely protect their country and the women they adore from a deadly plague that has turned people into violent monsters.
Beautiful brilliant Dr. Sophie Daniels is trapped in her home with the only antidote to the plague. Former Ghost Ops elite operative Jon Ryan is sent on a suicide rescue mission, brutally fighting his way to her side. Together they must cross treacherous terrain before they can return to Haven, but for them to succeed Sophie must trust this tormented soul and place her life, and her heart, in his hands.
Years of combat training has prepared Jon for this moment-unafraid, nothing is too dangerous now that he's found Sophie. He will risk everything, fight anyone, for her and a future filled with hope and love.
*Blurb taken from Goodreads*
Lisa Marie Rice's Ghost Ops trilogy definitely cements this as one of the most zany paranormal series that I've read. These books combines a variety of different elements that I initially didn't think would work, but in this final book, BREAKING DANGER, it really did work. The main reason is that the focus was firmly entrenched in a post-apocalyptic setting with other PNR elements being toned down compared to the previous installments. I highly recommend you to read the previous two books because they're all closely interlinked and readers will get lost if they read this series out of order.
BREAKING DANGER opens up soon after the events of I DREAM OF DANGER. Jon Ryan has been tasked to rescue Sofie Daniels, who is trapped in her apartment building with a cure to help save the world from a virus that is infecting people and turning them into the living dead. When Jon finally manages to get through to Sofie, their journey out of the city and to Haven to develop the vaccine is filled with danger. The infection is quickly spreading across the country and it's a race of time for them to escape and beat the virus.
I have to say I was looking forward to reading this installment because I was very curious to see how Lisa Marie Rice would paint a world full of scary zombies alongside with a hot romance, and overall she did tick all the boxes for me. BREAKING DANGER was tense, fast paced and full of action. Although the romance had the insta-lust/love trope, (which had the hero and heroine getting it on the moment Sofie opens the door). I really didn't mind – even though I am not a fan of this trope. The romantic elements reflected the hectic and frenzied tone of the book. The action doesn't really let up and the paranormal elements which were introduced in first two books help to establish the romance with Sophie having psychic healing powers, which helped to form a deeper bond with Jon.
Sofie was a great heroine–smart and capable, and her analytical and observant skills towards the zombies helps their escape out of the city. Jon falls for her hard and becomes very overprotective, which is pretty much a hallmark of Lisa Marie Rice's heroes which I adore. The love scenes were also great, and I was taken by surprise and I had to laugh on how Jon literally falls on top of Sofie and they get their jiggy on. I really enjoyed how the romance developed and it worked for me.
I also loved the dark and frenetic atmosphere of the book and I loved Lisa Marie Rice's take of the zombie mythos. She laid a lot depth and thought into how the virus infected the surrounding population which felt authentic and eerie. The scenes when Sofie and Jon are navigating through the city to get to Haven was chilling and full of tension. I wished that this element was actually expanded in a full series because Lisa Marie Rice really did a fabulous job with the way she presented the zombie infection and how it spread. And this was definitely the best book in the trilogy because it was engrossing and I was on tenterhooks on how they would manage to escape in such a dangerous setting.
The inhabitants of Haven also have some developments with several scenes, including the side characters of Lucien and Stella who have embarked on a romance. Like the previous book, the story was too brief and I wished they had more time to develop their relationship. I loved the idea of a scarred ex-actress and soldier who was experimented and tortured who find each other.
The ending was a bit rushed and glossed over. And there were a few questions which I had about the spread of the virus and how the Government didn't act rapidly with ignoring and quarantining a whole state, which didn't seem believable for me. But overall this was a highly enjoyable and cracky read and was firmly favourite book of the trilogy.
BREAKING DANGER is full of high octane action and a romance that is hot and heavy amidst in a dark and tense setting. I was highly entertained, even if the elements of this series are over the top and outlandish in some aspects. But this was such a fun read that I could forgive these factors!
I give BREAKING DANGER a B+

Yeah, you pretty much nailed every feeling I had about this book as well. Nice!

Thanks for the review. I really liked the first book in the series but the 2nd one was so disappointing. I'd been on the fence about the 3rd one but, based on your review, I' m going to give a chance.

How To Not Spoil Your Kids This Christmas
By James Doubek
kanzefar
NPR's All Things Considered asked two people who've addressed these competing parental desires for some advice for this time of the year.
Holidays mean one thing to many kids: presents. You've probably heard a parent of young children say something along the lines of: "It's all worth it to see their smiling faces."
There is an immediate reward to giving your kids what they want — shrieks of glee. But there is a downside to always saying "yes."
Parents have the conflicting desires of wanting to give their kids everything — but not raising them to be spoiled.
Here are some of their tips for parents — for the holidays, but really for any time of the year.
Go for experiences, not objects
"I'm always one that believes in investing in memories and choosing experiences over things," says Richard Watts, author of Entitlemania: How Not to Spoil Your Kids, and What to Do If You Have. "Something to do. Something that was meaningful."
Watts told NPR's Michel Martin that he and his kids will often pass out holiday blankets at homes for the elderly. Sometimes, his kids have even bought the blankets themselves.
Doing charitable work isn't the only option, of course.
Go to a play as a family or go on a hike together, suggests Beth Kobliner, author of Make Your Kid a Money Genius (Even If You're Not). "The joy we get from experiences stays with us longer than the stuff we get," she says. All that new stuff is only new for so long, then it becomes old and you want more stuff.
Be an example
"I think parents need to model the behavior that they're suggesting," Watts says. "So if they're telling kids they can't have [but] Mom and Dad are charging up the credit cards — they have everything they desire. ... Their behavior speaks loudly."
That goes for more than just material objects. It means letting your kids face adversity and not getting mad when things don't go their way. It doesn't take wealth to raise entitled kids, he says.
"We don't have money to spoil them, but we've done everything we possibly could to take away the struggle," says Watts. "So even in our modest way, we made sure that we complained when the kids didn't get a participation trophy. We were there arguing with the teacher on every opportunity. And we model that for the children."
Watts says a new generation of parents now in their 30s grew up without an example for how to act — "and the Internet becomes the source of our example. And the Internet gives us so much overload that we feel we absolutely can't get parenting right."
Kobliner acknowledges that in a era of instant gratification, doing things right can be hard. "This time of year, I remember as a kid waiting to watch It's a Wonderful Life," she says. "It came on once a year, this time of year. And now you can download it whenever you want. I think it's more challenging for parents to teach their kids, and it's more challenging for kids."
Getting to "no"
When it comes to gift-giving and shopping, "Don't be afraid to say 'no,' " Kobliner says. A Duke University study found that kids with parents who gave in to all their demands grew up to be more likely to have "credit card problems," she says.
Avoid the "hedonic treadmill," Kobliner adds. "You keep getting everything you want, whenever you want it, and it becomes meaningless after a while."
Saying "no" and letting your kids struggle makes you feel better as a parent, too, says Watts. The "idea of letting them crash, letting them struggle, letting them feel the results of their own pain" will end up being a relief.
"It lets us stand up and just go, 'Hey, it's OK to let our kids cry once in a while,' " he says.

i-D | rashaad newsome's explosive mash-up of post-feminism and the mainstreaming of vogue
The artist, composer, and ballroom community superstar walks us through his Brooklyn studio as he prepares for two new exhibitions.
Rashaad Newsome only moved into his new studio five days ago, but already the airy Bed-Stuy space is littered with thousands of disembodied paper eyes, mouths, and limbs. Coffee is brewing, and a YouTube video of a bell hooks panel discussion — the infamous "Beyonce is a terrorist" one — bellows through speakers hooked up to the artist's iMac. None of the works for either of Rashaad's two upcoming shows are finished, but stepping inside his studio is to step right into the guts of his thematic labyrinth, a surrealist (and literal) collage of vogue performance, architecture, ornament, and agency. It's also a pretty convincing testament to the breakneck pace at which his mind moves.
"I've been listening to a lot of different writers and theorists who speak about feminism, from a lot of different perspectives," he says after turning down the volume on his computer. "The show came out of a question that I hate, which is, 'What is your work about?'" But even questions he hates are ones Rashaad feels compelled to push further. "I started to think about what was a continuous theme in my work, and that theme is the importance and complexity of agency."
This Is What I Want to See, which opens this week at the Studio Museum in Harlem, uses collages and video to expand on the complexities and nuances of the vogue dance form that thrived in the neighborhood in the 70s. The show will also function as a gateway into Rashaad's first solo exhibition at De Buck Gallery in Chelsea, Stop Playing in My Face, which explores interpretations of agency within transgender and cisgender women of color communities via explosive works that re-appropriate bodies cut from magazines. On one table a giant collage of Amber Rose taking a selfie features a glistening naked butt used as a shoulder. Over cups of coffee, which turn into cups of wine over the course of nearly three hours, we discuss the mainstreaming of vogue performance and the importance of claiming space.
"Bedroom Eyes" (2016)
Can you tell me about the cut-out body parts and your move from performance to object-making?
The bodies in the work are a major component because when I came to working with heraldry, what I was interested in is how heraldry is the symbol made of symbols. Every component of that image represents perceived status, rank, power, and pedigree. So I thought, "What would be images in popular culture today that communicate that?" By using that as a design formula for making these images, you sort of reveal certain societal woes. I go straight to the source — magazines, the internet, advertising — so you start to see beauty standards, very clear hierarchies, ideas of wealth and position and power. I'm taking these images, then I'm using them to create images that in some ways comment on that. They become politicized in a sense, which is very much at the core of what surrealism was. By going to the source and getting these images from magazines, obviously it brings you to women, because within popular culture, women are sold as objects most of the time.
What type of magazines were you looking at?
I was particularly interested in King, and these kind of urban magazines… this [points to a page stuck to the wall] is Black Lingerie, this really is like a platform for a lot of the girls who work in the urban modeling industry — video vixens, and girls who are often featured in music videos. So I was asking myself, "Could the misogynist culture of hip-hop have offered these women some mobility?" Because they normally would not get a job in the traditional modeling industry. I was also thinking about agency. For me, agency is at the core of feminism. I feel like older models of feminism brought in the concept of the outside gaze, or the male gaze, but to have agency is to be aware of that. To me, and this is a question — "Is this not some form of post-feminism?" For instance bell hooks was saying you cannot recoup the violating image, but there can be a reclaiming and a retooling of that image. Is that what's happening? Then I'm thinking, "What can a liberatory sexual image look like?" It has really yet to be imaged, which is why abstraction makes sense, because abstraction is a way for you to image something that doesn't exist.
GAG (2016)
Was starting with magazines a conscious decision?
Well, when I started this work I started with catalogs — auction house catalogs. The first images I used when I started to communicate rank and power and things like that were images of jewelry. Part of that reason was because advertising images of jewelry play with light, so it allowed me to work with a static material that still allowed me some sort of play in terms of light and depth. I was also thinking about early No Limit album covers, which for me were really interesting art — coming from the city of New Orleans, which was the birthplace of bling. From there, it went into looking at popular culture, magazines, and the internet. Working with magazines is also a way to pull something really directly from the culture. Magazines are very clearly speaking from popular culture, so to pull something from that is to really pull something directly from the mind of popular culture.
How is vogue performance incorporated into the collages?
I was looking a lot at past vogue performances that I had choreographed, and using that as a starting point for the movement in the piece. I'm looking at these videos and performances that I did with trans women, but then going to these magazines and using cisgender women to create the bodies. I'm looking at how similar these two bodies are, but also at how similar they exist in society. It brings me again back to abstraction. How do you image a body that doesn't exist or doesn't even have a language yet? The eyes and the mouth are all from those magazines, and that's a way for me to give those women some agency.
When You Get Your Hair Done (2016)
Why did you decide to name the second exhibition after trans YouTuber Samantha James?
She did a video called "Stop Playing in My Face," where she's breaking down what that phrase means. When the show started to develop I was walking around my studio and seeing all these faces, and I was like, "That's going to be the title." So I reached out to her — I knew her from the ballroom scene — and said she could come and host the show. But then she went to jail, so I'm hoping that she will be out by the opening. Originally it was just a title, but then I started to think about the work in relation to her and in relation to agency and her being a trans woman. It's hard being a marginalized person, and so many people lose their way and abuse something to try to cope with being in a world that doesn't accept them. For her to even take the phone and use that digital space, she's in a way created her own reality show just from her cell phone. It's fully produced by her — she's the executive producer, she's the cinematographer, she's the scriptwriter, and she's getting the funds to do it. In a way that's a form of agency, that taking and claiming space. As small of a space as that is, it's still important.
How do you feel about vogue increasingly increasingly entering the mainstream?
I think it's great. For me it goes back to agency and also autonomy. Not that Paris Is Burningwasn't a good film, but it was told by someone who wasn't a part of the community. Being someone in the community, it's been very important for me and my work to always do it with the community and make clear that it's not coming from an outside perspective. I'm actually working on a film about the culture and the globalization of the culture. It's going to be centered around Paris, London, South Africa, and Tokyo. I've shot in Paris already and I'm working on going to the other locations.

Join DMs Glen, Fulongamer and Brian as they look into the old school D&D campaign world, Mystara! After a pair of emails, they discuss the history of the campaign world from its humble beginnings in the Expert D&D rule book to the beloved Gazeteers and its 2e reincarnation, then from there they take it a step further in talking about adapting the material from the Gazeteers to 2e rules. From there they dissect the Find Familiar spell, along with their more powerful later incarnations from Dragon #228, Find Companion and Find Minion. Finally they wrap things up with a discussion about a Mystaran monster that got the 2e treatment, the Wyrd.

Losing a driving licence for any period of time might seem like enough of a punishment. However, once a driving ban has been lifted a driver might find themselves struggling to find a suitable insurance policy to drive a vehicle on UK roads. A person might be banned from driving for repeated driving offences, drink driving or driving at excessive speed amongst other reasons. Banned drivers car insurance could be something that a driver might look for in order to get back on the road once they are able to.
Searching for insurance might seem like a chore but this could be even more problematic if someone is a banned driver or they are looking for insurance following a drinking ban. One of the ways a person might looked for cheap banned drivers car insurance is to search online using a comparison service. This way they could be presented with a range of options to choose from. A banned driver might seek out insurance for drivers with a drinking ban or the might look to compare banned drivers car insurance that enables them to get back on the road. Comparing quotes before committing to a particular policy could be the best way to get a cheap deal.
Banned drivers car insurance might seem impossible to find but there could be specialist insurers out there willing to work with drivers that are looking to return to the road. Not all insurance companies could offer this kind of insurance which is why using an insurer that understands banned drivers could be more straightforward to find using a comparison company. A driving ban may not mean the end of a person's ability to drive and finding a suitable policy could help someone to rebuild their driving reputation and get back on the road legally.
