An Interview with Joe Lansdale
Joe Landale latest novel The Thicket will be released on September 10. If you're in Austin, you can see Lansdale in person at BookPeople on September 12.
Joe Lansdale is one of the most versatile and peculiar writers in American literature. He's written a popular mystery series (Hap and Leonard) whose detectives are a white East Texas rose picker who spent time in prison as a conscientious objector and his best friend, a gay, black veteran. Lansdale has won the Bram Stoker Award from the Horror Writers Association eight times. He's also written for comic books, television, and movies, and his work has been turned into the films Bubba Ho-Tep (which, if you haven't seen it, you need to watch tonight) and, coming soon, Cold in July. His latest novel is The Thicket, a suspense novel set in The Big Thicket in East Texas. If you live in Austin, you can see him read from the book in person on Tuesday, Sept. 12, at BookPeople.
In this interview, Lansdale discusses voice, writing "historical" fiction, and what it means to write about East Texas.

Michael Noll
The first sentence of the novel lists all the things that will happen in the story. I've seen a lot of beginning writers try something similar, and the sentences rarely work because they feel manipulative, like the language is trying too hard to get my attention. But this sentence is wonderful. It's such an absurd list of events, and they're related so matter-of-factly. How did you approach this sentence?
Joe Lansdale
I'm not overly conscious of it and mostly just try to write something from the subconcious where the story is hidden. But the subconscious mind knows, and I let it be my guide.
I'm from rural Kansas, where people, especially old farmers, tend to have a colorful way of talking. My siblings and I actually play a game, trying to think of all the crazy lines we've heard our dad or grandfather say. So, that's why I love this line from your novel: "Daddy always said Grandpa was so tight that when he blinked the skin on his pecker rolled back." That's maybe the funniest thing I've read in a novel in a long time. I'm curious if you made that line up, or if it's something you've heard. In general, you're so good at writing that rural voice. How much work does it take to maintain it for an entire novel?
It's a saying I heard growing up. People here, especially generations previous, spoke that way naturally. I'm very comparison-oriented as a writer and speaker. I pay attention even when I don't know I am. I absorb more than I collect.
The novel is set one hundred years ago–which seems like a risky move as a writer. So many books set in the past are stifling to read. The characters don't seem like fresh creations, or the writers try to mimic an old-fashioned way of talking. How did you avoid those problems? At one point, I forgot the time period and thought I was reading something set in the present.
I tried to capture the period without it capturing me. I did allow an old style of speaking to seep in, but I never let it own the story. Shorty has a very stylized way of speaking, and even his contemporaries find it odd.
You're a Texas writer–born in Texas, live there, and set many of your books there. As a literary setting, Texas often gets used as a platform for big, sweeping sagas about America. Your work doesn't really do that, though. It's funny, where often those books aren't, and the characters are intensely idiosyncratic, rather than symbols for some larger idea–even though, as in the case of The Thicket, the story is set at a time of significant change. Is this because you write about East Texas, which lacks some of the mythic quality of the Old West and West Texas? Or does it have to do with your conception of how to tell a story? What do you think?
I think East Texas is mythic, but more in an Old South way, mixed with some Western, and cajun, black, and more recently, Hispanic culture. I write out of the mythic and tall tale tradition, actually. Love it. Greek myths are a big part of my background.

Great interview, Joe. One of the reasons that I like your stories is that they do encompass aspects of this "mythic South." I'm a native Texan, but my grandmother was from GA and worked as a share-cropper picking cotton. So growing up, I heard a lot of the phrases that you use in your books/stories, and never really felt "Texan" like I thought I should (the western aspects of it). Now I know why, but it took me years to figure it out and realize why it was. And it explains why people say some of my writing feels like Southern gothic to them. That's OK with me! 🙂

Who Should the Minnesota Wild Select At 50th Overall?
With the Minnesota Wild's second selection in the 2015 NHL Draft, at 50th overall, there will be plenty of big fish left to reel in. No doubt, tons of NHL stars could still remain past the first round, but the Wild will have to make a very smart decision. After 50th overall, there is expected to be a fairly large drop-off in potential of prospects, so the Wild should keep the possibility of trading up a few selections in the back of their mind. Listed below are the top 3 forwards and defensemen likely to be available for the Minnesota Wild at 50th overall.
At 50th Overall:
3: Nikita Korostelev- 54GP, 24G, 29A, 53PTS for the Sarnia Sting of the OHL.
Nikita Korostelev has adjusted to the North American game and excelled in Sarnia. [photo: OHL Images]
Korostelev has played in Canada since he was 14 years old, so he's pretty accustomed to the style. He has terrific talent with the puck and knows where to be on the ice. He's great down low on the power play as well. Only doubt is in his skating which he must improve to be successful in the NHL.
Rankings: 60th by ISS, 50th by Central Scouting, 46th by THN.
2: Takov Trenin- 58GP, 18G, 49A, 67PTS for the Gatineau Olympiques of the QMJHL.
Renin came over to Gatineau this year for his first in Canada. He adapted well and was able to improve many lacking aspects of his game very quickly. He has excellent puck skills and hockey sense that make him a solid playmaker. He's also become great on both the power play and penalty kill.
Rankings: 59th by ISS, 48th by Central Scouting, 43rd by THN.
1: Anthony Beauvillier- 67GP, 42G, 52A, 94PTS for the Shawinigan Cataractes of the QMJHL.
Anthony Beauvillier could have been a 1st rounder, but scouts are doubtful because of his size. (Judith St-Pierre/Shawinigan Cataractes)
Beauvillier has awesome leadership abilities already and was named the captain at the Top Prospects Game. He is very smart and plays with passion. He always does whatever it takes to win and has a top notch skill set. Only thing lacking is his size, standing at 5'10. Played for Canada at the U18's and scored 3 goals in 6 games. Wild would likely need to trade up to get him.
Rankings: 41st by ISS, 33rd by Central Scouting, 48th by THN.
Defensemen:
3: Rasmus Andersson- 67GP, 12G, 52A, 64PTS for the Barrie Colts of the OHL.
Andersson is an offensive defenceman who may need to work on his defensive game to become a top prospect. He's very smart and is terrific at starting the breakout with a smart first pass. Awesome on the power play at getting passes through and also getting pucks on net to create chances.
Rankings: 107th by ISS, 93rd by Central Scouting, 44th by THN.
2: Parker Wotherspoon- 72GP, 9G, 33A, 42PTS for the Tri-City Americans of the WHL.
Wotherspoon is a solid two-way defender who played at the U18's for Canada, scoring 5 points in 7 games. He is great on both ends of the ice when he makes smart decisions, but he still noticeably overthinks plays. His skating could improve still and he could work on getting pucks through traffic.
Rankings: 54th by ISS, 43rd by Central Scouting, 49th by THN.
1: Nicolas Meloche- 44GP, 10G, 24A, 34 PTS for the Baie-Comeau Drakkar of the QMJHL.
Nicolas Meloche uses his size well, and often, to halt any offensive chances. (Jonathan Roy/Quebec Remparts)
Meloche is a big, physical defender who uses his size to his advantage each night. He knows when to lay an attacker out and when to simply angle him into the corner and out of danger. He's great at going to the smart places on the ice and can definitely contribute offensively when he decides to join the rush. Could become a solid 4th defenceman.

This week's episode is the continuation of 'My Story' series.
I start where I left off last time, in Part 2.
The motivation behind this series is still the same – I want to tell my story and portray emotional state I was in. My intention was always to try and resonate with others, and to help health practitioners understand more closely what morbid obesity, the transition to a different lifestyle, and life afterwards, looks like.
So, my main focus will never change. I always aim to help and hopefully inspire people to change for the better.
In Part 3, I talk about the first half of 2010, the most eventful and impactful year of that period of my life.
Thank you, and have an awesome week.

EU rejects proposals to restrict plant-based dairy terminology
By Antonia Garrett Peel
CategoriesAlso in the newsBeverageBusinessDairyFoodIndustriesLabellingLegislationPlant-based
EU bodies have rejected Amendment 171 (AM171), the draft legislation which would have imposed new restrictions on the terminology used by the plant-based dairy sector.
The EU has already banned the use of dairy-derived terms such as 'almond milk' or 'vegan cheese', and this amendment would have had further implications for the dairy alternatives sector, as brands would have been prevented from using descriptive terms such as 'creamy', 'buttery' or 'vegan alternative to yogurt'.
Visual depictions of plant-based foods that could be judged to be 'evoking' or 'imitating' dairy, as well as certain packaging formats, would also have been prohibited.
In addition, AM171 would have put an end to brands using claims that compare vegan alternatives to dairy foods – for example, 'half the carbon emissions of dairy butter'.
Last year, the European Parliament voted to reject a ban on plant-based products using names typically associated with meat products, but voted in favour of a plant-based dairy ban.
AM171 has now been dropped by the European Parliament, the European Council and the European Commission, ahead of the EU's super trilogues.
The dropping of the amendment follows objections to the draft legislation from a diverse group of stakeholders, including 456,000 consumers via a public petition spearheaded by ProVeg International, Upfield and Oatly, and supported by 96 other organisations.
NGOs, food companies such as Nestlé, Greta Thunberg and representatives of the dairy industry were also among critics of the amendment.
Cecilia McAleavey, director of public affairs and sustainable eating at Oatly, said: "We welcome the decision to reject Amendment 171. It is essential and time critical to focus on removing legal obstacles hindering the shift towards a sustainable food system, not introducing new ones."
Jeanette Fielding, chief corporate affairs and communications officer at Upfield, added: "For the past few months, Upfield has been a vocal opponent of Amendment 171 and today's decision to reject it is a win for the plant-based food industry and for all those people who signed the petition to pledge their support."
Meanwhile, the European Dairy Association (EDA) has stated that the decision to uphold existing restrictions on the use of terms such as 'vegan cheese' in the Common Agricultural Policy will continue to protect dairy industry products.
"The protection of dairy terms remains a cornerstone of the Common Agricultural Policy," said EDA, in a statement sent to FoodBev.
"EDA and the whole European lactosphere celebrate the decision of the EU legislators to guarantee the status quo of the EU-wide protection of dairy terms, recognising the unrivalled quality excellence of milk and dairy products."

Steelboats can hardly be found in the HU boat market. In the Netherlands which has long tradition in boating and boat building considerable part of the fleet is steelboat.
The reason for this partly comes from the long life of steelboats, partly, by using modern coverpaint, the low maintenance cost of them, partly the low building cost. The cost of 1 m2 o the boat is the smallest in case of steel the dutch boatbuilders say.
Almost all of steelboats are displacement boat which represents the traditional values of the boating. In the competion of planning and displacement boat the low fuel cost of the latter is a important factor even among the citizens of richer countries.
You can found many steelboats specially on rivers and channels. The riverboating will have a relival nowadays in Hungary, more and more steelboat will be seen In river Danube and Tisza as well.

WASHINGTON-based World Growth (WG), a pro-development non-government group, said the World Bank is straying from its core purpose of poverty alleviation as it adopts narrowly-defined sustainability rules before it lends money for oil palm planting.This is despite the fact that Malaysia and Indonesia are being represented in the World Bank and that Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak heads the Southeast Asian constituency in the bank's governing board.
When contacted by Business Times, WG chairman Alan Oxley noted that it would be natural for the World Bank's president, Robert Zoellick, to consult the governors, which include Najib and Indonesian president Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono, over palm oil funding given how important it is for the countries' drive to alleviate poverty.
Indonesia and Malaysia are the world's top producers of palm oil.
It seemed that World Bank staff listen more to donors and environmental activists rather than developing countries.
Its private-sector lender, International Finance Corp (IFC), stopped funding the palm oil industry in 2009 after complaints from environmental and human rights non-governmental organisations prompted a review of its lending practices.
IFC's director of global manufacturing, agribusiness and services Atul Mehta reportedly said part of the World Bank's new strategy involves supporting the Round-table on Sustainable Palm Oil (RSPO), of which it is a member.
Atul said if palm oil clients violate commitments to keep forests standing and engage with local communities, the IFC can refuse loans.
Last month, lawmakers in the US wrote to the World Bank president stating their concerns over the bank's "no land conversion policy and suspension of palm oil funding".
Congressmen John Shadegg and Scott Garrett said the sustainability criteria will limit farmers in developing nations to benefit from private and public investment and undermine the World Bank's core mission of raising living standards.
In a document made available to Business Times the congressmen said, "the World Bank's reconsideration of its pro-agriculture policies is worrisome given the proven economic success of this development model".
When asked to comment, Oxley concurred with the congressmen that the World Bank should not overreach its priorities to set environmental standards, especially when it impacts its core mission, the jobs of millions and food offerings to billions.
"Zoellick's decision on the freeze of palm oil funding is a gross overreaction to a minor workplace infraction. Furthermore, this decision will lock in RSPO-style regulations and requirements on World Bank lending," he said.
"Why is the World Bank stepping into a role of an environmental regulator and enforcer instead of staying committed to its primary mission of poverty alleviation?" Oxley questioned.

Drew Storm Graham etches tiny, iconic skylines onto his reclaimed whiskey barrel stave bottle openers.
Toast your beloved burg without saying a word when you crack a beer with Drew Storm Graham's city skyline bottle opener. Starting with reclaimed whiskey barrel staves, he cuts, drills, and lacquer-finishes the wood, etching the tiny cityscapes on it with laser. A commemorative groomsmen gift, an iconic man cave accessory, or a tribute to a much-missed city of memory, Drew's miniature metropolitan masterpieces give even rural-brewed beers a bit of urban edge. Handmade in Denver, Colorado.
This was a great present for a friend of mine who lives in Atlanta and is a big beer buff. I wanted to find something that was somewhat unique but also was a practical item he could use. When he received it, he told me that he was extremely impressed with how clean and detailed the design was, and it was something he had never thought to look for.

Q: Geom_dotplot is showing extra points that don't appear in my dataframe I have a dotplot of continuous y data over several days presented as a dotplot and the number of points per group evolves over time and somehow on the last day some extra points are created.
My first idea was to make check the table in order to verify the amount of points per day and everything was correct.
        ggplot(aes(x=Days,y= value,fill=Animal_type,color=Animal_type))+
geom_dotplot(color="black",
             binaxis = "y",
             stackdir = "center",

             alpha=0.2,aes(group=interaction(Days,Animal_type)))+

scale_y_continuous() +
scale_x_continuous(breaks = as.numeric(axis_x))+
scale_color_manual(values = c("black","#E50914","grey"),
                   aesthetics = c("color","fill"))+

stat_summary(fun.y = "median", fun.args = list(mult = 1),
             geom="line",
             aes(x=Days,y=value,color=Animal_type,group=Animal_type),
             size=1)+

theme_classic()+

theme(aspect.ratio = 1,
      axis.text.x = element_text(size = 10),
      strip.text = element_text(size = 11),
      strip.background = element_blank(),
      strip.placement = "outside")+#function to change the appearance of the axis

labs(y=" ",
     x="Time(Days)",
     color="Animal type",
     fill="Animal type")+

facet_wrap(variable~., scales = "free",strip.position = "left",labeller =as_labeller(c("WBC 10^9/l"="10^9 cells/l","RBC 10^12/l"="10^12 cells/l","Platelets 10^9/l"="10^9 cells/l")))

Yep, another set of seating. I love the endless variety you have when it comes to this object, and I doubt I will ever get board making them. Anyway, this is a more classic design that I feel I need more of in the game. The combination of the recessed and scroll arm, plus the T-shape cushions just make it look incredibly classy, comfy and inviting. I could definitely see this used a lot in cottage and coastal builds.
I am aiming to do more smaller sets rather then getting stuck on bigger sets that drain my creative energy. Often, it is decor items that take the longest to create because you have to tie it to everything. I have a lot of ideas that have languished because they weren't 'complete.' However, small furniture-only sets would solve that problem and allow me to explore more styles without the burden or finding complimenting items. This bedroom suite is one such idea. Missing country and coastal styles together, I think this has become a perfect modern classic to mix with my other content, particularly my Hamptons series. Designed to fit my luxurious bedding, or standard separated mattresses, this should give a little more variation to your bedrooms.

The endorsement is the first for MoveOn this cycle and the top-priority Senate race for MoveOn; there are more than 150,000 MoveOn members in Wisconsin.
WISCONSIN — Wisconsin members of MoveOn.org Political Action have voted decisively to endorse progressive champion Russ Feingold in the state's U.S. Senate race, with an overwhelming 98% of votes cast in favor of backing Feingold. The endorsement is the first by MoveOn members in the 2016 cycle.
MoveOn has more than 150,000 members in Wisconsin.
Feingold was one of the most principled progressives in the U.S. Senate, where he served for 18 years until he was caught up in the Tea Party wave of 2010. From his sole vote against the Patriot Act in 2001, to coming out early and strongly against the Iraq War, to being a leading voice for getting money out of politics, Feingold has been a vocal and tireless advocate for progressive values and the people of Wisconsin.
In 2010, MoveOn members contributed more than $600,000 in small-dollar contributions to Sen. Feingold's campaign and mobilized hundreds of volunteers across the state.
In the 2014 election cycle, MoveOn members made over 6.7 million phone calls for endorsed candidates. MoveOn members have also raised millions of dollars—including more than $1 million for Sen. Elizabeth Warren's Senate race in Massachusetts in 2012—mobilized volunteers, and run ads in support of endorsed candidates across the country.
Nationwide, there are 8 million MoveOn members.

Dan's father started in this business 30 years ago as a sourcing agent in China in an effort to provide the best furniture quality at the best prices to the United States market. His goal was to show that furniture made in China can be of the highest quality.
Dan was always interested in what his father was up to, and has been going to factories since he was 6 yours old in So. China. As a kid Dan learned how to relate to the workers and learn not only what quality was about, but how to achieve it. The family relocated to the USA when Dan was 13, and Dan continued to be part of his fathers endeavors through high shcool where he helped his father with emails and travel. So much so that by the time Dan was 28 around the world. After college where he studied International relations and Japanese (and became tri-lingual), Dan founded StarSong with his father (previously named Sirio after a star).
Dan's father always said "If you do something, do it right." Ultimately StarSong is about this simple philosophy and not purely about profits. The company atmosphere is one that people want to work at, and company trips where people bring there families. Starsong hires problem solvers, independent and self-motivated people who are known to be decisive, efficient and who go after what they want.

Manchester United bossed possession but a resolute Newcastle defence kept clear-cut chances to a minimum, prompting Solskjaer to throw on Lukaku and Alexis Sanchez shortly after the hour mark. The changes bore fruit immediately and the interim boss will be equally pleased that United managed just their third clean sheet of the season in the Premier League.
With Olivier Giroud sidelined after suffering an ankle injury in Sunday's win at Crystal Palace, Sarri opted to recall misfiring striker Alvaro Morata. But once again the former Real Madrid star looked completely bereft of touch and confidence.

Contribuições Acadêmicas Originais
Do Periculum in Mora Inverso (Reverso) à Luz do CPC-2015

O presente artigo analisa o denominado periculum in mora inverso (reverso) - conceito e definição cunhados, originalmente, pelo autor -, examinando, primeiramente, os requisitos clássicos para a concessão de medidas liminares, quais sejam, o periculum in mora e o fumus boni iuris. Em seguida, aborda a importância do fundamento do pedido e a possibilidade ampla de concessão ex officio da tutela cautelar em forma de liminar, ressaltando a identificação da relevância do fundamento do pedido com o fumus boni iuris e o periculum in mora. Posteriormente, passa ao estudo específico do periculum in mora inverso, analisando a relação desse conceito com a grave lesão à ordem pública. Por fim, aprecia a cautela e contracautela.

Contribuições Acadêmicas Originais
Guerra Assimétrica Reversa: Um Estudo Sobre a Exteriorização Fenomenológica da Assimetria Reversa nos Conflitos Contemporâneos

O estudo relativo à denominada Guerra Assimétrica – e, mais recentemente, à moderna (e, para alguns, inovadora) concepção de Guerra Assimétrica Reversa –, reveste-se de especial importância, notadamente para o desiderato último da perfeita compreensão do fenômeno político alusivo aos conflitos bélicos, particularmente no século XXI. Destarte, com o fim da chamada Confrontação Bipolar Indireta (típica do período da Guerra Fria – 1947/91), não é mais possível interpretar os resultados políticos e militares, dos mais recentes embates bélicos, por meio de uma necessária análise de maior profundidade e com inafastável correção, sem considerar a complexa fenomenologia da Assimetria Reversa.

Outras Graduações Acadêmicas Superiores
Além da graduação em Direito (UCAM/1982), concluiu, também, os bacharelados em Arquitetura (USU/1982), Economia (UFRJ/1985), Administração (UCAM/1991) e Engenharia (UERJ/USU/1991), além de Licenciatura em Matemática (AVM/UCAM/2010), tendo, ainda, registrado passagem no curso de Mestrado em Direito e Relações Internacionais (PUC/1985) e no Programa de Pós-Graduação em Ciência Política (IUPERJ/1984).

Let's be real here – no matter when your game is set, professional murder is not a particularly good way to make a living. Sure, the definition of "professional murderer" is a bit more limited than the usual catch-all of "adventurer," but the number of characters I've seen in games that are actually purely adventurers is pretty small. However you're making your money in a mechanical sense, your character is probably finding a way to make money that doesn't involve roaming around outdoors and swording small woodland creatures for cash.
This is usually glossed over, mostly because no one wants to come home after work just to pretend to do more pointless work. (Pointed work is a different story.) But you can get a lot of mileage out of having a character with a job that isn't either an offscreen concern or a de facto license to traipse about and kill woodland critters after all. So let's talk about that.
"Jedi" is a decent career choice, but it's pretty hard to get into.
From a roleplaying perspective, there are three things that are really important about a job – money, freedom, and responsibility. The axes, if you will. None of them require exact numbers or details, but understanding how the three play off of one another is important.
Money is, obviously, the driving force that keeps everyone employed, in fiction or in the real world. You have to buy food, shelter, clothes, diamond-encrusted watches, all of that. It's tempting to throw around real in-game money here, but the fact is that numbers don't matter so much as economic strata. If your character makes $300,000 a year in The Secret World, that isn't actually relevant; if you peg your character as being functionally able to pay for most anything he wants if necessary, that says a lot more. Yes, some jobs will always pay better than others, but the point is in figuring how much disposable income your character has and how hard any unexpected expenses will hit him.
Freedom is the part that people don't tend to think about a lot. It's also a complex concept. Retail jobs don't have a whole lot of freedom in the real world – don't show up, you don't have a job any longer – but you often don't have a fixed schedule, which means from a roleplaying perspective you have space to explain why your character is or isn't at work. An artist has no schedule beyond getting art done, but a clerk has specific hours she has to show up for every day. Of course, that clerk can also get some time off by asking for it on shorter notice than the retail employee. Take all of this into account.
Responsibility is sort of the double-edged part of the freedom sword. I have a lot of freedom in how I do my job, but my pay is entirely based upon what I accomplish. A lawyer has plenty of money and freedom, but if he doesn't take cases or doesn't have a decent record of winning them, well, he quickly loses the money and (in all likelihood) his job. At the same time, someone whose occupation boils down to being nobility or an inheritor has pretty much zero responsibility on top of money and freedom, which… proves that life is terrible, basically, but that's not the point I'm making here.
What was that point again? Oh, right, jobs.
Some games strongly imply your character occupation just based on character choices. If I play a Trooper in Star Wars: The Old Republic, well, the job is sort of implied. But it's neither a hard-and-fast rule nor something that you can't fuss with a bit. Sure, the game states that your character is a trooper, but you can just as easily say that your character is a bounty hunter (more freedom and less regular money) or a private security guard (less freedom, less responsibility) or whatever. You always have options.
And all of those options lead to other character choices. Our hypothetical security guard probably has scheduled shifts at a specific location, so he has to be there at certain times and be ready to do his job. At the same time, once he gets out, he's pretty much free and clear – he's a private citizen with military training. If you make him an in-character bounty hunter, he doesn't have to go as many places on a regular basis, but he has to hunt down targets and bring them to justice, coloring what he does during his free time – if he has the money for free time.
"Troubleshooter" is a job. As in one or that which shoots trouble.
Not to mention, of course, that your choice of job can easily relate to which of those scales is most important to the character. If you'd rather have more freedom than more money, better pay wouldn't lure you to an occupation that doesn't offer you leeway. Prefer to feel responsible? A job that lets you do less for the same amount of money isn't as interesting.
You also have duration of employment to consider. There's nothing saying your character has to start with one job and keeps it forever. Maybe your character changes occupation. Maybe he does so repeatedly. Maybe he never seems to hold a job down for more than a few weeks at a time.
All of this is important to think about when you're creating your character, because it makes for an extra dose of verisimilitude. (Take a shot, if you're still playing that game.) Your character does something to earn money. There's a reason why she has some of her skills. She doesn't just pay for things through unspecified means, she has a jobh working hard at a shop as a saleslady. Or she's a lawyer. Or she's an engineer. She's a person, employed, doing something, and sometimes she has to deal with obligations and responsibilites that come from that alone.
Or you could just vie her a job of professionally killing woodland creatures, if you want.
Next time around, I want to talk about moving from the tabletop to the online arena – what still works, what doesn't, and what can help make the process easier. After that, let's talk about post-mortems, why you want to do them, and how they can improve your roleplaying on the whole.

Comic Creator Michel Pierret
Michel Pierret
(b. 1950, Belgium)
Les Aigles Décapités
Born in Elby, Michel Pierret studied at the École Supérieure des Arts Saint-Luc in Liège. He published his first comics in the "Cartes Blanches" section of Spirou magazine from 1974. He also made the series 'Terran Stone' for this magazine before joining the publishing house Lombard. He drew 'Les Aventures de Papilio' in Tintin from 1979 to 1987. In 1986, he also made on 'De l'Autre Coté de l'Écran' and the humorous series 'Max et Cati' for this magazine.
In 1990 and at the publishing house Glénat, he took over the artwork of 'Les Aigles Décapités' from Jean-Charles Kraehn, who continued to do the scriptwriting. As a scriptwriter, Pierret has written 'Les Diables Bleus' for Francis Carin in Spirou (1980), 'Hidalgos' for Marco Venanzi (Glénat, 2003, 2007), 'Les Déesses' for Jacques Denoël (Glénat, 2005-07).
Les Aventures de Papilio (Kuifje #6, 1983)
Together with Venanzi, he has also done the artwork for 'Opération Dragon Rouge' from a script by Thierry Robberecht and for 'Le Protocole Aïda' from a script by Yannick Laude, published by Casterman in 2006 and 2008. Michel Pierret has also made comic adaptations for Je Bouquine.

After listening to Emma Gonzalez, the Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School student who survived the Parkland shooting and spoke at March for Our Lives in Washington DC, I began to reflect on all our cultural stories in which women use words and silences as weapons in the service of social justice. There's Philomela and Scheherazade, and their life stories set me to thinking about all the ironies embedded in their tales about telling tales, with Philomela turning into a nightingale by Ovid (the female of that species famously does not have the gift of song) and Scheherazade telling stories about licentious women but living in a culture that restricted women's sexuality.
It is the human condition to live with cultural contradictions, and maybe for that reason it is not so surprising that in the public arena women are raising their voices in protest (Emma Gonzalez's words became powerful poetry, and I will not forget her "nevers") while in our popular entertainments, women are resorting to weapons.
If, on the other hand, you consider the games as a fever-dream allegory of the adolescent social experience, they become perfectly intelligible. Adults dump teen-agers into the viper pit of high school, spouting a lot of sentimental drivel about what a wonderful stage of life it's supposed to be. The rules are arbitrary, unfathomable, and subject to sudden change. A brutal social hierarchy prevails, with the rich, the good-looking, and the athletic lording their advantages over everyone else. To survive you have to be totally fake.
Then there is Hanna in Joe Wright's 2011 action adventure film–a genetically modified teenage assassin with bows and arrows and guns.
And Frances McDormand is weaponized again and again.
As is Rey from The Force Awakens, another trickster who is skilled in fighting back, and who has been turned into an action figure.
Female tricksters in stories and myths from times past used words and wit to right wrongs and change their cultures. These days, when we go to the movies we see revenge plots, with women turning first to arsenals of guns and steel to get even, doubly ironic since that has been the strategy of those to whom women are offering resistance in real life.
It doesn't help that most of these stories are written by men, who seem to know no other way of resolving their differences.
Thanks, and, yes, I was going to add that about directors, writers, et al., but have not yet fully looked into credits for each of those films.

NJ Transit trains in and out of New York City have suffered delays due to problems with century-old tunnels under the Hudson.(Photo: ~File)
Editor's note: The following editorial appeared in The (Westchester, N.Y.) Journal News.
It's been a rough summer for NJ Transit riders. Thanks to problems with the two 100-plus-year-old dilapidated Amtrak-run tunnels that traverse the Hudson, New Jerseyans and Rocklanders have gotten stuck in hours-long delays, day after day, as they try to get into Manhattan. It's not lost on West-of-Hudson commuters that NJ Transit recently announced 9 percent fare hikes and service cuts.
The situation could serve a case study for timely infrastructure investment: ancient equipment further deteriorated after flooding during Superstorm Sandy; meanwhile, the 400,000 people who rely on the tunnels daily face unreliable commutes.
What's the fix? There isn't a quick one, and there's certainly not a cheap one. A plan to add two new tunnels under the Hudson, a key part of the Gateway Project to fix a Newark-New York City rail bottleneck, remains unfunded.
Everyone seems to understand the need for the project and the urgency. U.S. Transportation Secretary Anthony Foxx, in a letter to New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie and New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo, called the current situation "a major threat to the region and our nation's transportation system."
Pat Foye, executive director of Port Authority of New York and New Jersey, said in June that losing even partial use of the current tunnels would have a "disastrous effect on the regional economy. That can't be overestimated." While the tunnels are owned by Amtrak, most of the train traffic comes from NJ Transit.
Christie and Cuomo have both said the tunnel plan is key to the region, but have also hinted that the onus for the bulk of funding is on the feds.
A healthy bi-state transit system is key to the region's economy and both states' tax base. Residents who can access high-paying Manhattan jobs can buy fancy homes and pay pricey property taxes; location, location, location via an easy commute adds to real estate values. Plus, New York gets a great income tax benefit from high-paid Wall Streeters and other city workers.
In the past, both governors have shown little interest in growing public transit. Christie killed an earlier trans-Hudson tunnel project, known as ARC, in 2010, citing fears that his state would get stuck with paying for cost overruns. And Cuomo launched his centerpiece project — the building of a new Tappan Zee Bridge — by lopping off longstanding plans to bring rapid transit to the Interstate 287 corridor.
Let's hope this time, the federal and state partners can achieve a smart way to expand a burgeoning rapid transit route that serves the region.
Meanwhile, the timetable for either fixing or building new trans-Hudson tunnels is measured in decades.

Sibanye's Froneman joins AngloGold's Pityana: "Incompetent" Zuma must go.
(Bloomberg) — South African President Jacob Zuma "has to go," with poor governance deterring prospective investors, according to the head of Sibanye Gold Ltd., the biggest producer of South African bullion.
"Any solid investor, any solid company is founded on good governance and what we have in South Africa at the moment is very poor governance, from a government point of view," Sibanye Chief Executive Officer Neal Froneman said in an interview Monday from the Denver Gold Forum in Colorado Springs.
He joins a growing chorus of South African business leaders criticizing the president's stewardship of the economy. Sipho Pityana, chairman of AngloGold Ashanti Ltd. and a prominent African National Congress member, last week said Zuma had "no integrity" and his actions are putting South Africa at risk of a credit-rating downgrade to junk.
Zuma, 74, has spooked investors this year by sparring with Finance Minister Pravin Gordhan for control of the Treasury, tax collection agency and state companies, while in March the nation's top court said the president violated the constitution for refusing to repay taxpayer money spent on his private home.
Gordhan is being investigated for overseeing an allegedly illegal investigative division at the state tax agency almost a decade ago. He says the unit was legal and approved by government. Zuma spokesman Bongani Ngqulunga didn't immediately return requests for comment.
On the positive side, public criticism of the president by mining executives signals their faith in other institutions.
And while operating in South Africa is tough, it's an environment that Sibanye understands. The company is looking at expanding, possibly in the platinum group metals, although Froneman said valuations are still high and the company wouldn't use equity for deals now.
The Bloomberg Intelligence Global Senior Gold Valuation Peers Index surged more than 150 percent this year through early August, before investors began pocketing gains, triggering a 20 percent retreat.
Sibanye and fellow South African miner Harmony Gold Mining Co. are the cheapest stocks in the index, trading at 7.2 and 8.2 times estimated earnings, respectively, according to data compiled by Bloomberg. The index trades at an average ratio of 21.
South Africa's business environment helps explain that discount and is one of the reasons why such low valuations aren't attracting takeover offers.
The company is among the least leveraged major gold producers, with a net debt to earnings before items ratio of 0.7, compared with the peer group average of 1.7, according to data compiled by Bloomberg. Sibanye's current ratio, which measures a company's ability to pay short-term obligations, is the lowest in the group.
Froneman said gold's recent pullback to about $1,314 an ounce is creating a buying opportunity, with prices set to trade in a range of $1,400 to $1,500. He expects a "double whammy" boost from strong gold prices and a weak rand, which has weakened 4.8 percent against the dollar over the past year.

Q: Suppress corresponding author footnote Looking for some help to suppress the corresponding author footnote in the reference section.
When using the following example:
\documentclass[prb,onecolumn,preprintnumbers,amsmath,amssymb,superscriptaddress]{revtex4}
\usepackage{amssymb}
\usepackage{amsmath}
\usepackage{graphicx}

\begin{document}
\title{My paper}
\author{ABS}
\thanks{}
\affiliation{University}
\end{document}

I get an asterisk symbol @ the author name (which is what I need to indicate a corresponding author)
but it also generates an asterisk in my reference section.
References:
*
(1) J. Doe, Nature 2005, 124.
How can I suppress the footnote to appear in my reference section?

A: Well, if I understand your question right, then you want to add a second author to the paper.
Your given MWE is not complete, you missed for example command \maketitle to create the title sequence for the paper.
Command \thanks includedes a footnote (with the asterix), so if you do not want it just comment is out (as I did in the following MWE) or just delete it.
Command \affiliation adds a numbered footnote into the title section, if you don't want it just comment it (as I did in the following MWE) or delete it.
Corrected MWE:
\documentclass[prb,onecolumn,preprintnumbers,amsmath,amssymb,superscriptaddress]{revtex4}
\usepackage{amssymb}
\usepackage{amsmath}
\usepackage{graphicx}

\begin{document}
\title{My paper}
\author{Firstname Lastname}
%\thanks{content of thanks}
%\affiliation{University}
\author{Firstname1 Lastname1}

\maketitle
text text text \footnote{footnote text footnote text footnote text footnote text }
text text text
\end{document}

and the result:


The big problem with traveling is leaving the dog at home, unless, of course, you take the dog with you. That's a bigger problem.
And we had this deranged idea of going to South America. Flying from country to country is not ideal. We wanted to avoid putting the dog in a cage and trusting her to a baggage clerk. Even if we flew in our own plane we would have no transportation when we got to our destination. That meant we had to drive.
We considered the best vehicle. We needed to be able to sleep in it. South American hotels are not dog-friendly. Take our Subaru and a tent? Spiders and creepy things can crawl into the tent and the dog tracks sand into the bed. Buy a Land Rover and get a rooftop tent? The dog doesn't do ladders. The vehicle can't be too big. It has to be able to fit in a container to be shipped across the Darien Gap.
Somehow we decided on a truck with a pop-up camper. After comparing every pop-up available, we decided on an Outfitter Caribou-Lite and a Toyota Tundra.
Meet the camper. We were so excited that we were out taking pictures in the dark.
We've been driving mostly east up until now. After getting the camper we'll be heading south.
