I feel the peace of the world in the breeze across the water, the lapping of the waves on the shore, the unassuming nature of water and nature. I am one with nature, and could spend hours just sitting by the beach, river, lake, ocean and stitch, read, listen to music and feel at the end of a day that I've had an incredible day.

The Minnesota Lynx fell to the Connecticut Sun 90-83 on Sunday, eliminating the team from WNBA playoffs contention.
Minnesota's loss made way for the Phoenix Mercury to clinch the team's 10th consecutive playoff berth with one game in hand.
The Lynx's defeat also marks the end of Sylvia Fowles' career. The star center checked out of the game with seconds left on the clock, receiving an emotional embrace from coach Cheryl Reeve as she returned to the bench.
"I was telling her thank you," said Fowles of the emotional farewell. "You never want to let a moment go when you appreciate somebody to let them know you love them. Cheryl has been everything that I needed to be successful and I'm grateful for that."
one last time for @SylviaFowles 🥺 pic.twitter.com/K5gF1NsIYO
— Minnesota Lynx (@minnesotalynx) August 14, 2022
Fowles notched ten points and 12 rebounds against Connecticut, capping off a prolific 15-year career in the WNBA that includes two league championships.
Her sixth board of the game made Fowles the first WNBA player in history to tally 4,000 regular-season rebounds, shattering records in her final appearance with the Lynx.
"There will never be another Sylvia Fowles," coach Reeve said after Sunday's game. "It's not just the 4,000 rebounds, which is awfully impressive. But it's the way she did it."
With Minnesota out of playoff contention for the first time since 2010, the Mercury and the New York Liberty clinch the final two postseason berths, joining the Las Vegas Aces, Chicago Sky, Seattle Storm, Connecticut Sun, Washington Mystics and Dallas Wings in the postseason field.

New coating turns ordinary glass into superglass
Posted by EarthSky in Earth | Science Wire | August 2, 2013
Resilient, ultraslippery glass could lead to self-cleaning, scratch-resistant windows, lenses, and solar panels.
A new transparent, bioinspired coating makes ordinary glass tough, self-cleaning, and incredibly slippery, a team from the Wyss Institute for Biologically Inspired Engineering at Harvard University and Harvard School of Engineering and Applied Sciences (SEAS) reported online in the July 31 edition of Nature Communications.
The new coating could be used to create durable, scratch-resistant lenses for eyeglasses, self-cleaning windows, improved solar panels, and new medical diagnostic devices, said principal investigator Joanna Aizenberg, Ph.D., who is a Core Faculty Member at the Wyss Institute, Amy Smith Berylson Professor of Materials Science at SEAS, and a Professor of Chemistry and Chemical Biology.
A transparent new coating makes ordinary glass tough, ultraslippery, and self-cleaning. The coating is based on SLIPS — the world's slipperiest synthetic substance. Here, a droplet of dyed octane quickly beads up and rolls off a watch glass with the new coating.
The new coating builds on an award-winning technology that Aizenberg and her team pioneered called Slippery Liquid-Infused Porous Surfaces (SLIPS) — the slipperiest synthetic surface known. The new coating is equally slippery, but much more durable and fully transparent. Together these advances solve longstanding challenges in creating commercially useful materials that repel almost everything.
SLIPS was inspired by the slick strategy of the carnivorous pitcher plant, which lures insects onto the ultraslippery surface of its leaves, where they slide to their doom. Unlike earlier water-repelling materials, SLIPS repels oil and sticky liquids like honey, and it resists ice formation and bacterial biofilms as well.
While SLIPS was an important advance, it was also "a proof of principle" — the first step toward a commercially valuable technology, said lead author Nicolas Vogel, Ph.D., a postdoctoral fellow in applied physics at Harvard SEAS.
"SLIPS repels both oily and aqueous liquids but it's expensive to make and not transparent," Vogel said.
The original SLIPS materials also need to be fastened somehow to existing surfaces, which is often not easy.
"It would be easier to take the existing surface and treat it in a certain way to make it slippery," Vogel explained.
Vogel, Aizenberg, and their colleagues sought to develop a coating that accomplishes this and works as SLIPS does. SLIPS's thin layer of liquid lubricant allows liquids to flow easily over the surface, much as a thin layer of water in an ice rink helps an ice skater glide.
To create a SLIPS-like coating, the researchers corral a collection of tiny spherical particles of polystyrene, the main ingredient of Styrofoam, on a flat glass surface, like a collection of Ping-Pong balls. They pour liquid glass on them until the balls are more than half buried in glass. After the glass solidifies, they burn away the beads, leaving a network of craters that resembles a honeycomb. They then coat that honeycomb with the same liquid lubricant used in SLIPS to create a tough but slippery coating.
"The honeycomb structure is what confers the mechanical stability to the new coating," said Aizenberg.
By adjusting the width of the honeycomb cells to make them much smaller in diameter than the wavelength of visible light, the researchers kept the coating from reflecting light. This made a glass slide with the coating completely transparent.
These coated glass slides repelled a variety of liquids, just as SLIPS does, including water, octane, wine, olive oil, and ketchup. And, like SLIPS, the coating reduced the adhesion of ice to a glass slide by 99 percent. Keeping materials frost-free is important because adhered ice can take down power lines, decrease the energy efficiency of cooling systems, delay airplanes, and lead buildings to collapse.
Importantly, the honeycomb structure of the SLIPS coating on the glass slides confers unmatched mechanical robustness. It withstood damage and remained slippery after various treatments that can scratch and compromise ordinary glass surfaces and other popular liquid-repellent materials, including touching, peeling off a piece of tape, and wiping with a tissue.
"We set ourselves a challenging goal: to design a versatile coating that's as good as SLIPS but much easier to apply, transparent, and much tougher — and that is what we managed," Aizenberg said.
The team is now honing its method to better coat curved pieces of glass as well as clear plastics such as Plexiglas, and to adapt the method for the rigors of manufacturing.
"Joanna's new SLIPS coating reveals the power of following Nature's lead in developing new technologies," said Don Ingber, M.D., Ph.D., the Wyss Institute's Founding Director. "We are excited about the range of applications that could use this innovative coating." Ingber is also the Judah Folkman Professor of Vascular Biology at Harvard Medical School and Boston Children's Hospital, and Professor of Bioengineering at Harvard SEAS.

Hey, the blog has had a makeover! New colours, Google search box, tag cloud and Currently Reading/Watching lists.
Hah! Yes, I have a couple more favourite Goth internet radio stations, shows and podcasts but with the '13 Best' format, everything can't be listed. Do you welcome further suggestions for sites in blog comments?
I really like the blog format for Darklinks because of the "on this date, this info was good" nature of blogs, and I've been enjoying your frequent updates at Facebook.

Carrie August 8, 2010 at 12:30 PM
Hi Orlando! Always great to hear from you.
For right now, the thought of people (not you in particular, you have always been a great help) sending websites in comments sounds overwhelming. I still have such a backlog to go through! Generally most blogs have problems with commenters just wanting to spam their own websites and not actually comment, so I am hoping that doesn't happen here. (Again, not aimed at you personally!)
Hehe, don't worry - no offence taken! And thanks for the clarification on that - the blog format is a much more personal thing with its own customs of netiquette.
And we do of course have other places to mention our own favourites - Dark Side of the Net Social Network


This month the challenge at Scrap Our Stash is to re-do an early project. Maybe a layout from your early days of scrapping or a photo from an early album is begging for a face lift. If nothing else, this challenge showed me how my scrapping has changed over the years!
My Old Layout: Creative Memories album, chronological (Spring 1987), photos from a time frame of a few months. Not even going to talk about design here. It is what it is.
Amazingly, I still had a copy of this photo and a few others lying around. A tricky proposition to go this far back because we were shooting non-digital then - harder to retrieve a photo.
My New Layout: Library of Memories album, thematic (grandma's house), photos from a longer time frame of at least a year. And let's just say I'm much happier with the design.
Journaling Reads: "Whether you are finding your basket of goodies on Easter morning, waiting patiently in your good clothes for a family event, or emptying the contents of the toy cupboard, it is always fun to be at Grandma's house in Tiffin!"
There's nothing "right" or "wrong" about either approach. I love both layouts because they capture precious memories. What I'm doing has not changed, only how I'm doing it. I'm perfectly fine with showing that evolution in my albums. Who knows where I might be five or ten years from now? That's what makes this hobby so much fun!
Ready to take on this challenge? All the details are here.
Wonderfully done, I have a particularly CM type of layout that always comes to mind when the subject of re-do comes up. I just haven't had the "courage" to tackle it yet.
Love your new layout! Fun bright colors and it is interesting to see how you would do something now. My early layouts are so basic, but I still love them just as they are. BTW, still loving that typewriter!
Great new layout. Love the typed journaling and the placement at the top of the page!
Hmm, I wonder if someday you'll redo your redo. I love seeing old layouts...they're fun to see how things have changed! I do LOVE the new layout...great colors and design!
Love the redo. My old pages look very similar.
Love your redo.. Your color combo's are amazing. Thanks for sharing.
Oh, I love the redo!! I laugh when I look back at my old layouts too! Someone should have jerked those deckle-edged scissors right outta my hands!!!
ScrappnBee, that's a great question! On the CM pages, the information is pretty basic and somewhat redundant. Now, I try to look beyond what is obvious in the photos to tell my story.
So cool! I love it. Great redo.
Love this Sue! Isn't if fun to see how your style has changed since starting in this hobby? I have CM albums that look much like yours!!
Love all the color in the 2nd layout and the emphasis in the journaling. Very nice!
Absolutely love the re-do, love the colors, the embellishments, all of it!! And wow, did that first page bring back memories of my first layouts, I love how this hobby has evolved!
Oh my, what a difference! The update is just fabulous from a design standpoint, and how fortunate you could lay hands on those photos -- so precious!
I like how you used the same photo over & have a different theme/topic for your layout, yet you didn't undo what you had completed before. I have no intention of re-doing any of my old stuff, but I have been adding some layouts using photos that I've already scrapped or included in previous photo albums.
Oh my goodness, Sue, what a fab redo! Scrapbooking has come so far in the past decade and I have many of those pages with little tiny circles and squares. I still have some of those old CM stickers too - they come in handy with my youngest daughter.
Oh I love the bright and happy hues on your re-do layout! Just lovely!

Follow the Yellow Brick Road
Dorothy Of Oz is a manhwa by Son Hee-Joon (creator of PHD: Phantasy Degree) originally published by Haksanpub and translated into English by UDON.
The story is about an ordinary 16 year old girl named Mara Shin who follows her dog Toto into a science-fantasy realm called "Oz". During her journey to return to her world, she meets up with Abee (Codename: Scarecrow), Namu (Codename: Tin Woodsman), and Tail (Codename: Cowardly Lion), and follows a mysterious Yellow Brick Road (Only she can see it) that may hold the key to the path home.
If you can't tell already, it is a Korean take on the classic tale of The Wonderful Wizard of Oz.
Dorothy Of Oz has examples of:
All Your Base Are Belong to Us: More specifically, the East now belongs to the West.
Ambition Is Evil: Pillanin. He plans on taking over Oz by experimenting on his own soldiers and innocent townsfolk. Unfortunately for him, Mara and Shine put a cap on that idea.
Amnesiac Dissonance: What Namu fears will happen to him if he ever recovers the data he lost when Mara zapped him. Was his job to find her, or...to eliminate her?
Anatomy Arsenal: Namu and Tick Tock both have blades concealed in their arms. Tick Tock also has a screw concealed inside of her foot. Word of God has stated that her whole body is a weapon, and it's implied that both of them have much more than just what's been shown so far.
Awesomeness by Analysis: Abee, surprisingly. He's able to copy extremely high-level telekinetic techniques after seeing them in practice a single time, and even manages to surpass the original user.
Ax-Crazy: Notable examples include Number Three, Number Fifty (to a certain degree), the Witch of the West, and Tick Tock.
Bald of Evil: Pillanin is going bald...and (according to Tail, at least), this is one of the reasons he turned himself into a vampire.
Barrier Warrior: Abee and Number Three can make "gravity spheres", aka telekinetic force fields.
Because You Were Nice to Me: The reason why Abee is so devoted to Mara is because she was the first person to treat him kindly.
Beware the Nice Ones: None of Mara's group can be called mean-spirited or bad, but piss them off and you'll wish you hadn't.
Beware the Silly Ones: Tail, to a ridiculous degree in the fifth volume.
Big Bad Wannabe: Pillanin. He actually is pretty tough, but was within a hair of being taken down once Shine decided to show up. And then it just got even worse for him from there. He's also rather hammy, which is probably another reason no one really takes him seriously, even when he's in his vampire mode.
Big Damn Heroes: Most notably in the fourth book when Abee throws a steel door at Tick Tock just as she is about to skewer Mara.
Big Eater: Tail.
Big Sister Mentor: Selluriah is this to Mara.
Blood from the Mouth: Selluriah had this right before dying of the poisoned assassin's blade.
Bodyguard Crush: Hinted that Indigo feels this way for Selluriah.
Boisterous Bruiser: Tail.
Boobs of Steel: Selluriah.
Break the Cutie: This seems to be Shine's plot for Mara.
Brought to You by the Letter "S": If you are an operative of one of the four Witches, expect to have an S, a W, an E, or an N somewhere on your shirt.
Butt-Monkey: Tail seems to be this at times.
The Call Knows Where You Live: Even though Mara has already had one adventure in Oz, Oz is apparently not finished with her yet and kept showing her the Yellow Brick Road until she finally was forced to follow it.
CatBoy: Tail looks like one, actually a lion boy.
Though as noted below, it's extremely easy to mistake him for a Catgirl.
Mara, in one chapter cover in the fifth volume.
Cat Fight: Mara and Tick Tock's battle had some definite elements of this. Particularly a little bit before it occurred, when Mara takes off her jacket, moaning about how "it's so hot..."
Catchphrase: Abee's "Oh, am I wrong again?" or its variations, and Mara's "MY NAME IS NOT DOROTHY! IT'S MARA. MARA SHIN!" or its variations.
Child Soldiers: Indigo's pretty young to be both a sergeant and Selluriah's bodyguard, and it's implied that he's been with her for a very long time. Long enough to not be visibly affected when she transforms, anyway.
Cloning Blues: Abee is just one of many clones created by the Witch of the West of her as-of-yet nameless assistant.
Combat Stilettos: The Witch's boots, though in the first volume it seemed to depend on the panel. In some panels, they had a very small heel, but from the second volume onward, they were always very high-heeled.
Comically Missing the Point: Tick Tock, upon being asked why she couldn't metaphorically do the simple math of realizing that politeness is the key to cooperation, asks just what is up with the math analogy.
Sarcasm-Blind
Conditioned to Accept Horror: Tick Tock, and it's implied that all the androids are like this. Namu not being this is yet another indicator that he's not what he seems, as all robots are programmed to mindlessly obey their master's orders, no matter how horrific they may be.
The clones all seem to be like this, too.
Contract on the Hitman: Number Fifty's own subordinate tries to kill him for becoming a liability. This does not go well for the subordinate, but Number Three manages to pull it off just fine later on.
Cowardly Lion: Tail isn't afraid of too much...just rats.
Crouching Moron, Hidden Badass: Abee has a horrible case of amnesia, is naive to the nth degree, and is quite cheerful, and usually mixes up his words. He's also the most powerful telekinetic in the land and learns new techniques after seeing them in practice one time, which doesn't even mention his willingness to get rid of anyone he sees as a threat to Mara's safety. Tail is a Big Eater with No Indoor Voice and a horrible sense of direction, and is capable of punching a huge, muscle-bound werewolf so hard that he flies back over twenty feet.
Let Mara get drunk while in Witch form. All of a sudden she's incredibly powerful and seems to have no qualms with using her magic for super explode-y revenge.
The Hungry Tiger at first appears to be a normal, harmless human (having hidden his ears under his hair and his tail in his pants), who is just looking for information about someone. And then he reveals himself as the best soldier in the North, and has apparently never before been defeated in a fight. And his roar can cause other chimeras to go berserk and attack.
Culture Clash: Among other things, Mara is absolutely shocked to find that Oz has no ocean, guns, airplanes, or phones. Oz, in turn, does not approve of her knowledge of these things, particularly guns, which turn out to have recently been invented by the Witch of the South and are a matter of utmost secrecy.
Curb-Stomp Battle: The Wizard against the four Witches (sadly offscreen and referenced only once), and Attack Mode Namu against Tick Tock.
Number Three's unit vs. the Rock Base soldiers as well. Poor guys didn't even get a chance to defend themselves before they were utterly overwhelmed.
Tail in his second fight against the Hungry Tiger...and his hands were tied behind his back!
Custom Uniform of Sexy: Tick Tock's uniform is very revealing for someone who's supposed to be a serious operative.
Cute Witch
Dangerous Deserter: Dr. Nedbar, who stole the Witch of the South's latest secret weapon and ran off with it. Rather than let Tick Tock catch up with him, he points the gun at Mara and basically demands that Abee help him or he won't hesitate to shoot. Also inverted in that Dr. Nedbar turns out to be an OK guy who helps Mara's group, just one who apparently doesn't do very well in a crisis.
Dead Star Walking: Selluriah and Indigo could both have been major characters... if only they weren't killed a few chapters after their introduction.
Declaration of Protection: Non-romantic example: Namu, upon joining Mara and Abee. The fact that his life is literally in Mara's hands probably helps.
Did You Get a New Haircut?: Inverted; no one quite believes that normal!Mara and witch!Mara are the same person due to the various physical changes she undergoes when she transforms.
Does Not Like Shoes: Averted with Abee, who loves his shoes. Mara gave him her old pair shortly after meeting him, and hilarity ensued when they actually fit perfectly.
Don't Go in the Woods: Or you'll be ambushed and eaten by crazy monkeys.
The Dreaded: The Hungry Tiger is this for the other chimeras. It's justified, as his roar can make them go berserk, transform into monsters, and attack.
Judging by Number Fifty's reaction to his arrival, Number Three is probably this for the Westerners.
Dress-Coded for Your Convenience: The Eastern soldiers dress more like typical soldiers. Westerners seem to favor ninja-esque outfits, or in the case of the higher-ranking numbers, lightweight armor. The androids from the South sport some kind of jacket and metal forehead protector. And the chimeras from the North all seem to favor lightweight, fairly revealing clothing. Nonetheless, Mara does not care who fights who as long as they leave her the hell out of it.
Dude Looks Like a Lady: Tail, obviously.
Dystopia: Oz is very much one of these.
Easy Amnesia: More or less played straight, though in the case of Namu, at least, it's justified. Being hit with Mara's lightning bolt caused his hard drive to crash and break down, and being hit again caused it to force-reboot itself. Understandably, a good chunk of data was destroyed.
Eek, a Mouse!!: Tail, hilariously enough, used to be afraid of rodents.
Electronic Eyes: Namu and Tick Tock, complete with a headlight-like feature!
Even the Girls Want Her: Played for laughs in a humorous omake at the back of the first volume. Abee demands that Mara choose which one of her three companions she likes, and she responds with, "Well...I really like...the nice lady from Oz!" and grabs onto Selluriah, who is understandably weirded out. Cue Abee having a BSOD and Indigo performing a Big "NO!".
Exiled to the Couch: Inverted with Selluriah, who sleeps on the couch by choice and has done so for so long that she has long since forgotten she has an actual bed.
Expendable Clone: Apparently to the point of killing a team commander when a rescue is also entirely possible.
Face Fault: Tail and Mara both come close to this at some points, but the farthest either one goes is Mara falling to her knees and shaking her fist after trying to converse with Abee for the first time.
Faceless Goons: Inverted with the clones, who all have the same face. At one point, Major Gayle even comments that he's getting really friggin' sick of having to see that same face over and over again.
Played straight with Pillanin's mooks in the first volume. Most of them are shown with their faces in shadow.
Failed Attempt at Drama: Pillanin reveals his true form as a blood-sucking vampire chimera, only for Tail to immediately point out that his hair has miraculously grown back. And then ask if that was the actual reason Pillanin experimented on himself in the first place.
Fantastic Racism: The East is generally a better place to live than the other three regions, but nonetheless, God have mercy upon you if you happen to be a Westerner or Southerner who accidentally wandered into their territory.
Fantastic Science: In Oz, magic IS science.
Fiery Redhead: Tail, being a male example...that nonetheless still looks like a girl.
Fire, Ice, Lightning: Mara and Selluriah both seem to like these three elements best when performing magic.
Flashback Cut: Tail gets one of these while being told just why Namu and Abee refuse to allow him to choose where they will go next.
Four Eyes, Zero Soul: The Witches of the West and South, and now the North as well (though she just has a monocle). Also Scary Shiny Glasses.
Fumbling the Gauntlet: It turns out that wandering around without a traveling pass in Oz is most definitely not OK. And knowing about guns is a death sentence by way of Tick Tock.
Funny Background Event: As Mara revels at her new body the first time she transforms, Selluriah is busy beating Indigo for calling her old. The next shot is of Indigo's hand reaching for the ceiling and Selluriah cleaning her bloody knuckles off.
Funny Foreigner: Mara is this to Selluriah and Indigo.
Gender Reveal: Everyone thinks Tail is a girl at first. And then Namu shows them otherwise.
Genius Bruiser: Namu.
Genius Ditz: Abee, surprisingly enough, and despite being this story's version of the brainless Scarecrow. He is very observant and intelligent, but is also rather naive and often gets into trouble because he simply doesn't know how the world works.
Half-Human Hybrid: Tail is a lion chimera. Also included are the Hungry Tiger (obviously a tiger chimera), the aptly named Wolf, and two more seemingly unnamed wolf chimeras in the fifth volume.
Namu is at first believed to be an android, but is actually a cyborg- half man, half robot.
Hero with Bad Publicity: Mara just might be the best example of this trope. She's a better person than most of the prominent figures in Oz, but due to a horrible misunderstanding has a huge price on her head and is feared throughout the land and hated by virtually everyone in the East.
Hidden Depths: At first seeming like a typical robot who unquestioningly follows orders, Namu turns right around and starts a battle with Tick Tock because she mentioned killing his mission target and cutting off people's arms.
Tail at first seems like a frightened young Catgirl, but then shows himself as a young man capable of mass destruction when he gets really worked up.
When Mara first meets Abee, he has such bad amnesia that he can't even speak properly, and spending a day with him does nothing except to convince her that he's got a few screws loose. And then they're attacked by Number Three, and Abee gets to show off what he's really capable of.
Hideous Hangover Cure: While trying to find a way to sober Mara up, Abee pins her arms to the wall with a pair of axes. As he was trying to keep her from frying him alive, though, he can be forgiven. She got revenge by almost vomiting on him a moment later.
Hollywood Cyborg: Namu is one of these.
Homage to the Oz books.
How Do I Shot Web?: Mara has a lot of trouble using her powers while in Witch mode, and no matter what she does, just can't seem to get it totally right. Without Thyrsos, she's not strong enough, and with it, she's TOO strong. Unless she's drunk, in which case she becomes almost scarily competent.
How We Got Here: The first book starts off three months after Mara arrives in Oz, and she already has all three of her companions. The latter half of that book, and all of the second, third, fourth and all the way to the end of the fifth, go back and show just how the group got to that point, and how Mara met each of the three.
I Am Not Left-Handed: Turns out the reason Tick Tock managed to beat Namu twice was because he wasn't in Attack Mode. Once he activates said Attack Mode, however...well. It doesn't turn out very well for Tick Tock.
I Cannot Self-Terminate: Namu, after realizing just how dangerous his Attack Mode really is. Luckily, Dr. Nedbar doesn't really heed his request and instead gives him a Self-Destruct Mode as a just-in-case thing. It's controlled by Mara's cell phone, much to her dismay.
I Miss Mom: "I'm crying because I miss my mom. Is that such a bad thing?"
Identity Amnesia: Abee, and to a much less extent, Namu. Abee's was so bad that he couldn't even remember how to speak at first. Namu got lucky and just lost a lot of data, though he still retains much useful information in his databanks.
It should also be noted that neither Abee nor Namu have shown interest in regaining their lost memories. Abee genuinely seems not to care, and Namu is afraid of what regaining that lost data might mean.
Tail apparently has this as well.
If You Die, I Call Your Stuff: Despite being told many times that Grumpy will survive being hit with Mara's lightning power, Dopey is fairly determined to gain ownership the older dwarf's helmet.
In Medias Res: The story begins with the group already together and getting into a situation in a town with Chimeras. After it gets settled, the story jumps back to how Mara came to Oz and goes from there.
In Vino Veritas: Mara gets drunk at one point, and gets a fair bit more confident about her situation. Not to mention her previously terrible magic skills just go through the roof all of a sudden.
Innocent Fanservice Girl: Tick Tock. She gets about 75% of her clothing ripped off by the Dwarfs, and yet doesn't seem to notice her state of undress until much later. And even then, it had to be pointed out to her.
Intoxication Ensues: Mara. What she initially thought was water turns out to have been beer. Granted, though, she figured out what it actually was rather quickly. It was only the fact that it pissed the Seven Star Dwarfs off that made her keep drinking it.
Kick the Dog: Oh Lord, Shine.
Last-Second Word Swap: "Change back so I can check out your...I mean, confirm what I just saw."
Lightning Bruiser: Namu and Tail both qualify. As do Shine and most of the other chimeras.
Magic Misfire: Instead of hitting Pillanin with her fireball, Mara instead just manages to set Tail on fire. And then while trying to make it rain to put the fire out, she electrocutes him. Poor guy.
She also electrocuted Namu while trying to make a bridge. Clearly electricity is not her specialty.
Magic Prerequisite: Normal people can't learn magic. Of course, this raises questions when Mara, a foreigner, manages it, namely that of "just who the hell IS this kid?!".
Magical Girl: Mara.
Dark Magical Girl: Three of the Witches of the Four Points.
Magicians Are Wizards: The Witches all consider Oz to be just like them at first, aka, just a scientist who depended on some kind of trinket (in his case, Thyrsos) for his power. Turns out he has actual magical power, and even without Thyrsos was able to curbstomp all four of them at the same time. Ouch.
Malaproper: Abee. It comes with the territory of having such complete amnesia that he's forced to relearn how to speak.
Meaningful Name: The names Mara gives to her traveling companions. "Abee" is short for "Huhsuabee", which means "scarecrow" in Korean. "Namu" means "tree" or "wood". And Tail...well, he has a tail.
And Wolf is a wolf chimera.
Tick Tock, of course, is a machine with clockwork parts.
Medium Awareness: A one-off joke at the beginning of Volume 2 pokes fun at how blood and ink look the same in a black-and-white comic.
Megaton Punch: Both Tail and Namu are capable of this. The Hungry Tiger is, too.
Mentor Occupational Hazard: Poor Selluriah.
Mexican Standoff: Abee vs. Tick Tock vs. Dr. Nedbar. Telekinesis vs. blades vs. gun.
Mind over Matter: The clones prefer to attack with telekinesis, though they are also all accomplished soldiers in general.
Mini Dress Of Power: The Witch's clothes. And how.
Mistaken for Badass: Mara Shin, ordinary high-schooler with a four million dollar price on her head for a murder she actually didn't commit.
Mistaken for Murderer: Mara. This is also the catalyst for why she's busy wandering around Oz instead of just chilling in Sapphire City for her stay.
Mysterious Past: Abee, who has literally no memory of his life up until just a few hours before meeting Mara.
No-Holds-Barred Beatdown: The final fight between Namu and Tick Tock, in which Namu activates his Combat Mode and punches Tick Tock so hard that she is literally ripped in half.
As well as the final fight between Tail and the Hungry Tiger. Tail nearly murders the guy and would have kept going if Mara hadn't stopped him.
Nosebleed: The Devil Tribe's reaction to Selluriah's transformation. The facial expressions on the cyclops and one of the Mooks, for instance, are nothing short of hilarious.
Not Distracted by the Sexy: The only time anyone seems to be, um, impressed with Mara in her Witch form is when they've actually seen her transform. And even then, it only lasts a very short time.
Ignore the Fanservice
Oblivious to Love: Somehow Abee manages to not realize that Mara likes him, despite her practically swooning over him while drunk.
Older Alter Ego: Mara's Witch form features her as she'll apparently be ten years into the future. Her hair and eyes have also changed color (white and gold, respectively), for some reason.
Only Known by Their Nickname: Much to Mara's annoyance, most people know her by her codename only.
Only Sane Man: Compared to her three faithful companions, Mara is actually pretty normal.
Ordinary High-School Student
Phrase Catcher: "It's _________, Abee."
Power Dyes Your Hair: When in Witch mode, Mara's hair turns white and grows to her shoulders. However, her Witch mode is also supposed to her in ten years, so one could argue that at age 26, perhaps she just decided to let it grow out a bit.
Psychic Powers: Abee and all the clones have telekinesis.
Psychoactive Powers: Upsetting Mara in her Witch form is a bad idea.
Punched Across the Room: Tail does this to Wolf in the first book, while Namu does it to Pillanin, along with probably breaking his nose.
Tick Tock gets Namu with this in the fourth book, right before he goes Attack Mode on her.
Tail also does it to the Hungry Tiger in the fifth book.
Quest for Identity: More or less averted. Both Abee and Namu have at least an idea of who they once were, but neither has shown any interest in regaining their memories or going back to their old lives.
Really 700 Years Old: Selluriah may look like a young woman, but her true age is apparently classified, and calling her old will get you curbstomped. It's implied that the other three Witches are like this too.
Red Baron: In universe, many characters are known to the general public only by their codenames. Which actually makes sense, considering that most don't have actual names, only the aforementioned codenames.
Red Shirt Army: The Rock Base in the East is easily taken over by Number Three and his very small band of soldiers, despite outnumbering them by quite a lot.
Reluctant Fanservice Girl: Mara, as the subject of the series' Running Gag.
Ridiculously Human Robots: Tick Tock. The Witch of the South makes these.
Running Gag: Mara tries her darnedest to avoid being seen while transforming, but inevitably, someone will walk in just as the magic strips her clothes off. It gets worse in the fifth book where she trips, goes flying into the middle of the action where everyone can see her, and lands right on top of Abee.
Sarcastic Devotee: All three of Mara's loyal three companions get at least some of this at certain points. Tail especially, though.
Saw It in a Movie Once: How Mara tries to explain her knowledge of guns. It doesn't work.
Science vs. Magic: Averted; the Witches' "magic" is actually just a supernatural level of science. The Wizard is the only true confirmed magician.
Shipper on Deck: Namu saves Tick Tock after she is pushed off a cliff, and Mara declares them to be a cute couple. This is the only mention of it, however.
Shirtless Scene: Number Fifty gets one in the third volume. Unfortunately, he is also being tortured for information in that particular scene...
The So-Called Coward: Tail. He's actually the opposite of cowardly, if anything.
Sociopathic Hero: Abee, but this is more just him trying to get rid of someone he perceives as a threat to both Mara and to himself. Given what he'd just been through only a few days prior, it's kind of understandable. He stops once Mara yells at him about it while drunk, though.
Sociopathic Soldier: Number Fifty at first appears to be this, but he's really just incredibly jaded by life. Number Three definitely counts, though.
Speech Impediment: Sort of. Abee tends to get words mixed up, often with hilarious results, but this is a result of his severe amnesia.
The Stoic: Namu.
Take My Hand!: Abee saves Mara from falling off a cliff. Subverted in that it was her yelling for him to grab her hand instead of the other way around.
Team Pet: Toto.
Technological Pacifist: Selluriah is implied to be this. She's also the only one out of the four Witches who hasn't explicitly experimented on humans. Instead, she seems to like making super-suits.
Those Two Guys: Dick and O'Neal become this. Could also be said for most of the clones, as well.
Tin Man: Both Namu's codename and his personality type. He does have emotions, but is also very, very much The Stoic and almost never shows them.
Too Dumb to Fool: Abee to Number Three, being able to figure out that Three has been planning to kill Fifty for a long time due to simply not understanding why Three was watching Fifty for so long. He's also the only one to not trust Shine immediately and knows he's up to no good, but also states he didn't try to stop him because he knew it would only end badly.
Toplessness from the Back: Selluriah during her Transformation Sequence. Mara gets a minor one right before she hands the Dwarfs' asses to them on a platter.
Town with a Dark Secret: Brick Village, from the first volume. Also counts as a subversion since none of the villagers were aware of their malady until it was activated by Pillanin.
Transformation Sequence: Mara gets one when she uses the witch boots. But everyone can see her naked when she changes. Much to her embarrassment.
Transformation Trinket: Selluriah's boots.
Tranquil Fury: Abee's wrath usually manifests as this.
Trapped in Another World
Trauma-Induced Amnesia: Due to being zapped twice with several hundred volts of electricity, Namu lost a good chunk of data, including knowledge of just what he was supposed to do with Mara when he found her. How Abee lost his memory is uncertain, but judging by the dried blood on his forehead when Mara finds him, it may be due to head trauma. Note that getting hit in that same place does nothing to restore or further impair his memory, however. Tail also appears to be suffering from some sort of amnesia as well, but just how much or how it happened are also unknown.
Unusual Ears: All the chimeras have the ears (and tail) of the animal they've been fused with. Wolf is the only one who doesn't, but he appears to be more of a werewolf than a chimera.
"Wanted!" Poster: A very important item in the first volume.
We Can Rebuild Her: Dr. Nedbar's rebuilds Tick Tock after she's smashed to pieces, rewires her memory, and sends her back to the Witch of the South with false information. Too bad the Witch and her assistant figure out that something's not quite right here.
What Measure Is a Non-Human?: One of the more implied themes of the series. Human experimentation not withstanding, Mara is the only one who automatically treats everyone as being an equal to her.
Where's the Kaboom?: The first time Mara tries to fight Tick Tock with magic, it...doesn't quite work.
Same as when she first tried to use magic in general. Unless she's drunk or very angry, she seems to need Thyrsos to help her focus the energy properly.
Wizards Live Longer: Each of the Witches is stated to be much older than they appear, and who knows how old the Wizard is...
Wolf Man: Wolf in his chimera form, obviously.
Would Hit a Girl: When pushed, Namu has no problem fighting Tick Tock practically to the death.
Wrongfully Accused: Mara is accused of killing Selluriah, the Witch of the East, and stealing her boots. The Witch of the West had an assassin kill Selluriah, and Mara just happened to be in the wrong place at the wrong time.
You Are Number 6: All the clones (except Abee) have numbers instead of names. Number Fifty makes a point of telling Mara that they don't have the "luxury" of real names.

FOUR PAWS in US Our StoriesRescuesRescue Anya and Frankie
Domazhyr
Rescue Anya and Frankie
A long life of happiness awaits them
Having spent their entire lives kept in small cages, bears Anya and Frankie are now adjusting to very different lives. We rescued the two brown bears and moved them to our BEAR SANCTUARY Domazhyr in the Ukraine early this month.
It is likely both bears have never known an existence outside of a cage. Both have been moved around various facilities during their short lives. For bear Anya, her live started when she was privately kept before being moved to the rundown Pokrovsk Zoo near the town of Donetsk. For bear Frankie, he had a similarly tough start to life, born in a Ukrainian zoo where he most likely faced a life of daily performances. After that, he was moved to Pokrovsk Zoo where he met Anya.
The conditions at Pokrovsk Zoo were so bad that both bears were confiscated by the authorities. They were transferred to a temporary shelter early last year, where they've been waiting until our team was able to rescue them. The two bears, ages 5 and 6, then began their over 745 mile journey to their new lives at BEAR SANCTUARY Domazhyr.
The beginning of a new life
When they arrived at the sanctuary, they had to spend 48 hours in the bear house before being released into their outdoor enclosure. As expected, the bears were rather cautious to step outside into the enclosure. This was a totally new experience for them! However, it was not so long before they discovered their pool and both of them spent over an hour enjoying their new found freedom! The specialized animal keepers have not seen any stereotypical behavior in the bears as of yet, which is surprising after their years of suffering and lack of stimulation. Eventually, next spring the bears will move to a large forest enclosure.
Both the bears love to eat everything that is being given to them. As time goes on, it's expected that the bears will show more preference in their meals and develop favorite foods! Please help us to support their new beginnings.
help the saddest bears in Ukraine!

Just about any type of disagreement or dispute can be resolved using mediation or arbitration. Usually, the dispute will be resolved more quickly and at a lower cost than through litigation of any type.
Repair and inspection issues, costs for repairs, earnest money disputes, and claims of misrepresentation about the condition of the property, appliances or fixtures are all examples of situations where mediation and arbitration are effective and less expensive.
When Are These Types of Resolution Not Appropriate?
If one party is alleging some type of criminal conduct on the part of the other, then these alternative dispute resolution options shouldn't be used. In disputes between realtors or ethical complaints against them by consumers, there are procedures for arbitration in place through NAR that should be used. If the dispute involves very complex issues of legality or property rights, it would probably be better to utilize attorneys and the legal process of litigation.
How Long Does It Take and What's the Cost?
Generally, mediation and arbitration are conducted within a few months of the dispute arising. For mediation, there are usually just a few hours involved in one meeting to achieve mutual agreement or decide that the dispute must escalate. Arbitration can be a bit more lengthy, as the arbitrator or panel will want to be sure that all pertinent facts are discovered and understood before making a decision.
The parties usually split the cost and mediation will be charged at the mediator's hourly rate. Arbitration can be charged hourly or on a daily fee basis, almost always resulting in much less cost than litigation.
Can an Attorney Accompany the Principals?
Any party to a mediation or arbitration proceeding can bring their attorney along. It is frequently not done in the simpler disputes, as it raises the costs, and the parties believe that they can reach agreement on simple issues without representation.
Is Arbitration Always Binding on the Parties?
Arbitration can be either binding or non-binding, as agreed to before proceedings begin. If it is agreed that the decision will be binding, then the decision rendered must be adhered to by the parties.
Also, when the agreement to mediate or arbitrate is part of a real estate contract, then the parties are bound to do so before they can escalate the dispute to litigation.
With all the pressures involved in a real estate transaction, the dollar amounts involved, as well as the possible emotional attachments of sellers to their homes, disputes can happen at any time. It isn't in the thoughts of the principals when they're negotiating a transaction, so it's a good thing to have an agreement in the purchase contract to mediate or arbitrate disputes before other action.
When a consumer believes that a realtor has acted unethically or made errors that caused them damage, the processes in place for arbitration can usually fairly resolve the issues and avoid undue expense on the part of either the consumer or their agent in getting to the resolution.
In any case, there are great burdens on our judicial system from lawsuits for all manner of presumed damages. Whenever the parties can resolve their issues without utilization of the court system, it's better for all.

Justice Department: Majority of campus sexual assault goes unreported to police

WASHINGTON — Only about 20 percent of campus sexual assault victims go to police, according to a new Justice Department report providing insight into why so many victims choose not to pursue criminal charges.
About one in 10 say they don't think what happened to them is important enough to bring to the attention of police. Other reasons they don't go include the views that it is a personal matter or that authorities won't or can't help. One in five said they fear reprisal.
A recent Rolling Stone article that described a gang rape alleged to have occurred at a University of Virginia fraternity brought renewed attention to the issue of campus sexual assault. The magazine later said it couldn't stand by its reporting. But even before the article's release, the Obama administration had taken steps to pressure colleges to better treat victims, and Congress has grappled with how best to get colleges and law enforcement to work together on these cases.
Researchers from the department's Bureau of Justice Statistics used 1995 to 2013 figures from the National Crime Victimization Survey.
Some questions and answers arising from the report's findings, which were released Thursday.
Why would some victims think the crime was not important enough to contact police?
Victims may be reflecting not their own view of the crime, but how they think it will be seen if they report it, said Laura Dunn, a victim's rights lawyer and executive director of SurvJustice.
"They are basically suggesting that they know in our society that the only rapes that are taken seriously are those committed by strangers and are significantly violent," Dunn said.
Some victims view the crime differently if people start blaming them and they, in turn, start to blame themselves, said Scott Berkowitz, executive director of the Rape, Abuse and Incest National Network, which runs a national sexual assault hotline. Or, because they are in a closed social structure where everyone knows everybody, they feel that reporting the crime would be going against their peer group, he said.
Peter Lake, a law professor at Stetson University College of Law who conducts training for colleges on the topic, said there is a disturbing cultural acceptance of this crime, leading some victims to believe what happened to them is acceptable.
Lake said some students he's talked to about rape "don't know what their legal rights are."
If they aren't going to police, are victims going elsewhere for support or to report the incident?
Fewer than one in five victims said they received assistance from a victim service agency. While victims can find support from someone like a friend or loved one, there is evidence that people who get help quickly after an attack fair better in the long term, Berkowitz said.
It's unclear from the survey how many victims choose to report the crime to campus authorities rather than police. The survey said a small percentage of victims reported it to officials other than police, but researchers caution against making judgments about a sample that small.
Some victims' advocates have said victims prefer to have their cases adjudicated by their colleges instead of using the criminal justice system. But there have been complaints of schools poorly handling cases and protecting the school's image instead of supporting the victim. Plus, while schools can expel a perpetrator, they can't send that person to prison to prevent repeat offenses.
Are all victims women?
No. About 17 percent of the student victims were men, the researchers found. That is a higher rate than among nonstudents, where just 4 percent of victims were male.
How do the rates of sexual assault on female students compare to nonstudents?
The Justice Department report said that young women between the ages of 18 and 24 are more likely to be raped than those in any other age group.
The rate of rape and assault was 1.2 times higher among nonstudents than among their peers in school. In both cases, about 80 percent of victims knew the perpetrator. A weapon was used in about one in 10 cases.
Other studies have shown that about one in five women is raped during their college years.
Are there differences between the nature of the crime when you compare female students and nonstudents?
Nonstudents were more likely to be attacked at home, while attacks on students occurred more often while they were out, engaged in leisure activities.
There also were some differences in who committed the attacks. Nonstudents were more likely to identify an intimate partner, while college students more often said they were the victim of a friend or acquaintance.
Students were less likely than their nonstudent peers to go to police.
In about 40 percent of the cases, victims thought the person who attacked them was drinking or on drugs.
Do police need to be involved anyway?
Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand, D-N.Y., who is pushing a bill that would force colleges to enter into a memorandum of understanding with law enforcement over the handling of such cases, has said the goal should be to get 100 percent of victims go to police. But she said she's heard from survivors who feel re-victimized by the process of seeking justice.
David Cohen, a law professor at Drexel University who has litigated Title IX cases, said there are clearly cases in the criminal justice system where there is abuse of victims and minority groups, and it's far from a perfect system. But, he said, "Rape is an incredibly serious crime that college administrators aren't equipped to handle. It's an issue that very reasonable people disagree about who care deeply about rape survivors and justice."
Ultimately, Cohen said, "If people don't feel like they can get justice in the system, then they are going to keep it to themselves."

Fifth grade is a wonderful time in the life of your child. They will learn new things, make new friends and prove to themselves that they can handle more responsibility. An ELL teacher, academic specialists, and a LD teacher team with classroom teachers to provide instruction in reading, math, and writing.
Our job as fifth grade teachers is to ensure that our students succeed with the curriculum, as well as believe that they can be successful in whatever they do. Fifth grade uses "Everyday Mathematics," which is a thinking and problem solving approach to mathematics.
It corresponds to the math standards and prepares students for the Minnesota Comprehensive Assessment (MCA) tests that are taken in April. We strive to balance the rigor of the academics with many educational experiences. Our Environmental Expert Topic in Science is Erosion. We learn about landforms, what shapes the Earth's surface, and how we can lessen the impact of erosion locally.
Field trips are centered around the enrichment of Science. They include trips to the Valley Branch Nature Center to learn about the environment, the Como Planetarium to study the moon, and Physics Force to learn about science experiments.

Experimental drug shows promise as multiple sclerosis treatment
Brain's shrinking slows with drug
An experimental drug reduces brain atrophy in people with progressive multiple sclerosis, raising hopes that it also can reduce disability.
People with a progressive form of multiple sclerosis (MS) face a gradual decline of brain function that slowly strips away the ability to walk and may cause problems with speech and vision. Available treatments are only modestly effective at slowing the decline.
Now, a phase two clinical trial has shown that the investigational drug ibudilast slows brain shrinkage. While future studies will determine whether the drug relieves symptoms and reduces disability, the results are promising because more pronounced brain shrinkage is associated with more severe neurological symptoms.
"We were encouraged to see positive preliminary results for a progressive MS therapy that also appears safe," said co-author Robert T. Naismith, MD, an associate professor of neurology at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis and a member of the steering committee overseeing the study. "A larger phase three study is the next step to evaluate the clinical benefit. If such a trial is positive, this treatment option may be available within the next several years."
The study was published Aug. 29 in The New England Journal of Medicine.
Led by Robert J. Fox, MD, a neurologist at Cleveland Clinic in Ohio, the trial – known as the SPRINT MS study – involves 28 clinical sites including Washington University School of Medicine. In the study, 255 patients were randomly assigned to take up to 10 capsules of ibudilast or a placebo daily for nearly two years. Every six months, the participants underwent MRI brain scans. The researchers applied a variety of analysis techniques to the MRI images to assess differences in brain changes between the two groups.
The brains of patients in both groups continued to atrophy over the course of the study, but the decline was slower in the ibudilast group. Reducing the rate of atrophy may delay the worsening of symptoms, the researchers said.
"The study was not large enough to prove a clinical effect, but the data suggest that people's disabilities may not have worsened as rapidly in the treatment group," said Naismith, who is also director of the John L. Trotter MS Center at Washington University and a local principal investigator for the trial.
The most common side effects reported by participants included nausea and diarrhea, as well as headaches and depression. There was no significant difference between the groups in the number of patients who reported adverse effects.
"These findings provide a glimmer of hope for people with a form of multiple sclerosis that causes long-term disability but does not have many treatment options," said Walter J. Koroshetz, MD, director of the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS), part of the National Institutes of Health (NIH).
MS occurs when there is a breakdown of myelin, a fatty white substance wrapped around axons, which are long strands that carry messages from and between brain cells. When myelin starts to break down, communication between brain cells slows down, leading to muscle weakness and problems with movement, balance, sensation and vision. MS can be relapsing-remitting, in which symptoms occur then disappear for weeks or months and then may reappear, or progressive, which is marked by a gradual decline in function.
Future research will test whether reducing brain shrinkage affects thinking, walking and other problems in people with MS. In addition, such studies will examine whether ibudilast slows the progression of disability in MS patients.
The SPRINT-MS study represents a major collaboration among neurologists to investigate new treatments through the NIH-sponsored NeuroNEXT program, an innovative approach to neurological clinical trials that attempts to streamline phase two clinical trials.
MediciNova donated ibudilast and the placebo and provided less than 10 percent of the funding for the trial in a cooperative agreement with NINDS. MediciNova also had a representative on the protocol steering committee.

This folder contains scripts that implement a word-level language model using Temporal Convolutional Network (TCN) as described in the paper An Empirical Evaluation of Generic Convolutional and Recurrent Networks for Sequence Modeling by Shaojie Bai, J. Zico Kolter and Vladlen Koltun. In this paper, the authors show that TCNs architectures are competitive with RNNs across a diverse set of discrete sequence tasks. For language modeling, it is shown that TCN's performance on two datasets (Penn Tree Bank and WikiText) is comparable to that of an optimized LSTM architecture (with recurrent and embedding dropout, etc).

Temple of Death Promotes Culture of Death
Published: October 18, 2013/Saint Gabriels Newsroom/Last Updated: October 18, 2013
In Washington, D.C., 13 blocks from the White House, stands the imposing House of the Temple. It is the headquarters of the Scottish Rite of Freemasonry, Southern Jurisdiction, USA.
In Washington, D.C., 13 blocks from the White House, stands the imposing House of the Temple. It is the headquarters of the Scottish Rite of Freemasonry, Southern Jurisdiction, USA. The building is a recreation of the ancient tomb of Mausolus at Halicarnassus that once stood in what is now Turkey. A tomb is where the dead reside. We get the term "mausoleum," a place where dead bodies are kept, from the name Mausolus. The mother temple of this very powerful Masonic group is a symbol of death.
Freemasonry is the great champion of liberalism, secularism and egalitarianism. Masonry was instrumental in the founding of the USA, the French Revolution and the modern notions of human rights and freedoms. Not all of what it stands for is evil; however, it and its allies are masters at making evil seem good and promoting an evil agenda under a benevolent veil. The prevailing cultural spirit throughout the Western world is, I believe, a Masonic spirit. It is increasingly a spirit of death.
When I was a boy, our Toronto neighborhood was full of children. Our parents could focus on adult responsibilities as we played in the backyards, laneways and playgrounds. But the sexual revolution was in full swing. With it came abortion on demand, the much greater use of contraception, feminism, legalized pornography, casual sex and easy divorce. Today, more and more Canadians are not getting married or they are delaying marriage, delaying having children, and having less children.
The neighborhood I now live in has only a few young children and lots of old people. It seems that most neighborhoods in Canada are like that. Canada's population is no longer growing through natural increase. In much of the nation, we are closing schools and building old age homes. Partly because of the high cost of caring for the elderly, "doctor assisted dying" is on the verge of being legalized.
Before the sexual revolution of the 1960s, it was relatively easier to maintain one's innocence. F-words were never used on television. The values shown on popular TV shows, while not perfect, were much, much better than today. Hard core porn was illegal in Ontario. Today, anyone with access to the internet can view sickening, shocking porn that could destroy one's soul. To habitually use porn, as a great many people do today, is to court eternal death.
What Pope John Paul II called "the culture of death" (the acceptance and practice of abortion, euthanasia, and serious sin of all kinds) is growing in our world. Not surprisingly, this is occurring most in those nations that are abandoning the last vestiges of Christianity and embracing radical secularism. Most people believe that factors such as urbanization, education, technological progress, etc, are solely responsible. I believe that these "accidental" factors have made the "culture of death" more probable but they have not made it inevitable.
The culture of death is growing mainly because of the worldwide Satanic influence of elite, secretive organizations such as Freemasonry. I don't mean to denigrate all Freemasons, most of whom are decent men who know nothing of the "higher purpose" of the Lodge. "For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms" (Ephesians 6:12).
The culture of death can only be overcome by the culture of life. The Catholic Church is the great champion of life and puts its hope in Mary our mother and Jesus our Saviour. Please do your part to promote the culture of life.
