The State Of The Green
After a lot of chatter regarding the Celtics season being "over", I thought now would be a good time to go over the current state of the Boston Celtics.
Record: 35-21
Position in the East: 5th
Offensive Rating: 111.7 (9th)
Defensive Rating: 105.5 (5th)
Net Rating: 6.2 (3rd)
Remaining Strength Of Schedule: 0.529 (5th)
Toughest Remaining Games: @GSW, @MIL, @TOR, Vs DEN, @PHI (2), VS HOU, @LAL, @/VS INDY
Through 56 games we've had our fair share of drama surrounding this team and even more frustration from their performance on the court. They've underperformed and we've been wondering what is wrong with this team since they limped out to a 10-10 start. Kyrie has been a man on a mission all season long and he's lived up to the hype after a knee injury held him out of last year's playoffs. He's carried the load at times and if not for a lot of theatrics on his part, this team may be in a worse spot.
As for the rest of the team, aside from Marcus Morris Sr. and Jayson Tatum, they've been inconsistent. Gordon Hayward has had a difficult time getting back to full strength as he's looked timid, seems unsure of himself, and is nowhere near the player he was pre-injury. This poor start coincided with a movement to the bench after 16 games and he's been there ever since. While his whole season hasn't gone to plan, he's looked considerably better off of the bench and his stats back this up.
His shooting percentages are up across the board and he's been more effective as a facilitator. He's shown flashes of his old self, including 2 30+ point showings against the Timeberwolves, and other isolated moments. It's about these little victories and Hayward still has a bit before he's back to 100% as a player. One thing I've personally noticed recently is his demeanor has changed. He's starting to attack the basket with a purpose and instead of looking confused, he just kind of looks angry. It's like he's at a breaking point in terms of being discouraged and is just tired of hearing how he's a shell of himself. I'm not saying he's going to start averaging 20 points per night, but it's something new, and something I haven't seen yet from him during his return. A week off for the All-Star break will do him good and give him the chance to just get away from basketball for a few.
Al Horford and Jaylen Brown both had slow starts to the season, but recently they've both been keys to this team. Brown was moved to the bench as well with Hayward and since then he's been a different player.
He's been so reliable in that role this year and has given the bench a needed spark that they were lacking early in the year. The way he's driven to the basket and built his offense around that has been a joy to watch. Figuring out the type of player that he is going to be in this league is important and he's been able to do that as a reserve this year.
Al on the other hand was sidelined for a bit with a knee injury and missed most of December. After looking a bit slow when he first came back, he's gotten it together and has given the Celtics a boost on both offense and defense. His ability to space the floor at the 5 position has opened up the lane for guys like Kyrie to drive and kick.
Since the Celtics elected to put the Marcii in the starting 5 things have changed a bit with rotations/roles on the team. When the 5 of Irving, Smart, Tatum, Morris, and Horford start, the Celtics are 14-7 when this group starts.
In terms of rating it's one of the Celtics' best lineups and it has a nice balance between offensive firepower and defense.
While it's helped their cause, this lineup hasn't saved the Celtics and there are still issues with this team. They're so puzzling because when you glance at the numbers, things all seem fine and dandy until you realize their spot in the standings. They shouldn't be where they are and I attribute this to overall inconsistency. It seems like they play when they want to and every time it seems like they take a step forward, they take 2 steps back. Since that 10-10 start, the Celtics have gone 25-11 which doesn't seem too bad. The issue has been the way they have lost these games (The Florida debacle, the Brooklyn massacre, their recent 2 game skid at home to LA teams, etc). It seems like after every single loss there's an outburst or something gets said to the media. It feels like a toxic environment and with the strength of the East this year, their 10-10 start has really hurt them down the line.
Today, they sit in 5th place and are 6.5 games back of the first place Milwaukee Bucks.
With how bad they've played, they aren't in a terrible spot in terms of positioning. They are in prime position to go and get the 3 seed which seems like a win after all that has transpired. Milwaukee, Toronto, and Philly all beefed up at the deadline so this task will be a bit tricky. The Celtics have the talent, they just have to put it together and play like the team we thought they were. Their schedule won't do them any favors either as the have the 5th toughest remaining schedule while Milwaukee has the 26th, Toronto has the 30th, Philly has the 23rd, and Indiana has the 7th. The Celtics didn't make it easy for themselves and they're paying for it with how tough their schedule is late in the season.
The key for this team has nothing to do with stats, schemes, lineups, or anything of that nature. It's about how much they want it and it's about coming together as a team. As Morris Sr. said on Saturday that they are playing like individuals and that has to change if this team's going to make a run. It falls on Brad's shoulders to put them in position to do this and it's on the players to buy in. They bought in last year and were a game away from the Finals, imagine what this team would look like if they buy in.

Something to think about: it appears that more people cheat in their relationship than we thought. According to a new survey, statistic found that 52% of gay men in monogamous relationships have cheated on their partners (boyfriends), and 45% confess that their partners never found out.
The study was conducted with nearly 1000 gay and/or bisexuals and conducted by FS magazine.
52% of the cheaters, 17% they had contracted an STI while fooling around, and 61% never told their partners, OUCH! The number of gay men who have been cheated on is even higher, 58% say a partner had been unfaithful.
Of the 52% of cheaters, 17% said they had picked up an STI while sneaking around–and 61% say they never told their partners about it.
These high numbers aren't just limited to monogamous relationships. 40% in open relationships responded that their partners had violated or broken the rules set by the couple.
"17% of the gay men who admitted to cheating on their partner got an STI or HIV," he says. "We recommend that all sexually active gay men, whether in a relationship or not, get tested for HIV and STI at least twice a year." According to Ian Howley, Chief Executive of the Health Equality and Rights Organization.
So, if we're going, to be honest, we must acknowledge that monogamy isn't for everyone. All relationships must have direct and effective communication; you can't be afraid to talk to your partner and always being honest with yourself.

KUDIRAT ABIOLA'S MURDER: LAGOS APPEALS TO SUPREME COURT
Hamza al-Mustapha, suspect in the case
The Lagos State Government said today that it has filed an appeal at the Supreme Court against the judgments delivered by the Appeal Court in favour of Major Hamzat Al-Mustapha and Lateef Shofolahan in the murder case of late Alhaja Kudirat Abiola.
The Appeal Court few weeks ago upturned the judgment of the High Court of Lagos which passed death sentence on Al-Mustapha and Shofolahan.
While addressing a press conference this morning , Attorney General and Commissioner for Justice, Ade Ipaye said the state government formally filed appeal at the Supreme Court on Monday against the two judgments delivered by the Appeal Court adding that the government had indeed studied the two judgments delivered by the Appeal Court very closely and concluded that there were grounds for appeal, which made the government to formally filed the appeal at the apex court.
"Having fully reviewed the decisions of the respected Justices of the Court of Appeal, it is our humble view there are strong bases for appeal which the Supreme Court of Nigeria should have an opportunity to consider," Ipaye said.
The Attorney General said this step the government was taken would also ensure that all issues were fully articulated and that the victim's family, the defendants and the society were not deprived of the last window of opportunity provided by the constitution for the resolution of the case.
The commissioner added that government was committed to ensuring that law abiding residents and visitors continued to live, work and pursue their various aspirations in a safe and secured environment. Ipaye also responded to the Amnesty International Report on Badia East area of Lagos, saying that despite contrary suggestions in the report, the government was committed to the welfare of its residents and the protection of their rights.
He stated that while government was in the process of organizing assistance for affected persons on humanitarian grounds, the public should be reminded that rights come with responsibilities and that it should not be assumed that anyone could set up residence anywhere without necessary approval and compliance with planning and public health laws.
"Illegal settlements, unapproved buildings and unsanitary conditions cannot be justified as these may end up in painful evictions or demolitions. The particular area which was subject of Amnesty International report is a part of the Badia settlement which was earlier cleared of all structures in 2003. It was in fact, a swampy strip and the least built up of the entire community.
"Unfortunately, government was unable to immediately redevelop the area. It was subsequently filled up with refuse, having been used as a refuse dump since it was cleared. A few plank and shanty structures were put up there which grew gradually into a small community characterized by all the negative features of urban slum settlement, including unstructured shelter arrangements, regular flooding, unhealthy environment, insecurity and people engage in all sorts of nefarious activities," he explained. He added that government had to retake possession of the land to build 1,008 estate, saying that before the retaining of possession of the slum, government had held several meetings with stakeholders in the area and that it was agreed that the illegality in the area must not be allowed to continue.
Ipaye said government was currently in the process of ascertaining the persons actually affected by this project with a view to assisting them, stressing that while such effort was ongoing, "we need to stress that we have a limitation, in that we cannot make that s standard procedure.
"Because of limited means and various competing interests, government does not have the resources to guarantee payment to any person that puts up an unapproved building on land to which he or she is not entitled."
He added that "while we are mindful of the need to discourage such practices, obviously, once government begins to pay for illegal developments, it will have to do so in all other cases. As a responsive government, we will continue to make and implement policies that positively affect the lives of our citizenry and fulfil our electoral promises while managing the impact on persons who may be adversely affected by the process."

Martin Sheen and Emilio Estevez, father and son, work together to bring The Way to life.
The Way starts with bad news, as Thomas Avery (Sheen) finds out that his son Daniel (Estevez) died while walking the Camino de Santiago pilgrimage route. [Wikipedia] As Tom travels to France to retrieve his son's body and posessions, it's during a night of grief that he changes his mind and decides to pay homage to Daniel by finishing what he started: the pilgrimage route, all the way from France to Spain.
Emilio Estevez created a sentimental, atmospheric film that pays homeage to the Camino de Santiago by showcasing what it's like to do the pilgrimage route, taking advantage of the landscapes, real tourists and Tom's quest to finish the route. It does have a religious vibe attached to it, but Estevez doesn't go overboard with it at all. His writing yielded a tailor-made role for his father, who superbly carries the film with his emotions on display for everyone to sympathize with Tom's suffering and feel uplifted. But at the same time, The Way shares similarities with the likes of Canterbury Tales and The Wizard of Oz in regards to the supporting characters who Tom encounters and bonds with during the pilgrimage — all with their own reasons to travel "El Camino".
First, there's Joost (van Wageningen), a Dutchman who wants to lose weight before attending his brother's wedding. Later, both meet Sarah (Unger), a cynical Canadian who's trying to quit smoking. Finally, there's Jack (Nesbitt), the Irish travel writer who suffers from writer's block and hopes that writing about the Camino will solve his issue. Despite the differences between all four protagonists, they all bond and get along.
There's a couple of main problems with The Way. Estevez's writing for Sarah was fine, but the writing for Joost and Jack bordered on stereotypical because he wrote them based on their nationalities and the typical stuff attached to them, resulting in the characters being quite annoying. Also, The Way goes at a very slow pace, which makes the road trip film hard to watch, despite some of the twists Estevez injects into Tom's pilgrimage route. But even with its faults, I'd say that The Way is alright to watch, at least once, thanks to Martin Sheen's performance.
One last thing, the film's ending credits show that it's dedicated to Emilio's late grandfather, Francisco. But with Emilio playing the dead son in The Way and Martin Sheen going to rescue his son's body, it made watching the film a bit strange when this was released in 2011 in other countries around the time Charlie Sheen — Martin's other son — was going off the rails.


The Rift is a local magazine based out of the southwest United States. The Rift was started out of the conviction that the El Paso area had voices not adequately represented with the current mainstream local media and publications. The Rift, as a concept, always existed as an opportunity to challenge and engage with new and interesting ideas without a concern for identity politics, word count, political correctness or expectations. As the name suggests, we always felt that The Rift broke with what might be considered traditional and common border themes, that it reached for something bigger.
It was in 2014 that The Rift began with that idea in mind. In those days the vision of the Rift was still in the making. We've gone through two print issues and some good online content. As these things go, we gained and lost contributors, but we held firm to what we felt the Rift was, even though we could not adequately define it. Since then, we have come to understand what The Rift is really about.
The Rift, we like to think, is more than a website or the yearly print issue; it's an attitude, it's a spirit, one that pushes against the current in an attempt to better understand what's out there. We are a small operation, if we could be called an operation, but we try our best to be true and accurate.
In 2018, the Rift as a magazine fell apart and is now a vestige of what it once was. It is now a one person operation, where it is currently being reworked and rethought. It might emerge as nothing more than another blog, it might become a fashion magazine, or maybe I'll just write about my dog and pretend that life is easy.

\section{Introduction}
The launch of the Fermi telescope led to the discovery of a number of gamma pulsars (\citeauthor{Abdo2009}, \citeyear{Abdo2009}). The search for periodic radio emission from these pulsars has shown that in the radio range many of them have low luminosity (\citeauthor{Camilo2009}, \citeyear{Camilo2009}), that is, they are radio-quiet pulsars. In 2018, a conference was held in China, at which a report was presented with the presentation of the results of observations on the 500-meter FAST telescope of one of these pulsars (\citeauthor{PeiWang2018}, \citeyear{PeiWang2018}). According to the report, the periodic radio emission of gamma pulsar J0357+3205 was detected in FAST observations, and also confirmed by observations on the 300-meter Arecibo telescope.

Since 2013, the Large Phased Array (LPA) of Lebedev Physics Institute (LPI) radio telescope performed a daily survey of the sky at declinations $-9^o$ to $+55^o$. This survey is used, among other things, to search for pulsars in the summed power spectra (\citeauthor{Tyulbashev2017}, \citeyear{Tyulbashev2017}). Summation of the spectra makes it possible to increase sensitivity by increasing the total observation time for a given direction. Pulsar J0357+3205 falls into the study area, so it is possible to search for it in monitoring data for an interval of 5 years. Despite the high sensitivity in the search for summed spectra, there were no pronounced harmonics whose inverse frequency would correspond to the pulsar period (P=0.444104 c). On the other hand, it is known that pulsars have both internal (intrinsic) and external variability induced by the interstellar medium. Pulsar flare activity is also possible, or periods of long nullings. Therefore, it is likely to detect a pulsar in individual records, whereas it will not be visible in the total power spectra. At the moment, there are more than 1700 observation sessions in the direction of the pulsar J0357+3205. In this paper, we have attempted to search for its periodic radiation from all available data.

The vertical axis shows the signal-to-noise ratio on the dispersion measure under test. It can be seen that the maximum dependence falls on the dispersion measures of 46-48 $pc/cm^3$. The right part of the figure shows the average profile of the pulsar J0357+3205 for December 23, 2016, accumulated with a double period. The pulse phase in the double profile is shown along the horizontal axis. Along the vertical axis – the flux density in arbitrary units (a.u.).}

\end{figure*}

\section{Observations and results}

After the reconstruction of the antenna, which took place in 2010-2012, the effective area of the LPA LPI increased to 45000 sq.m. in the direction of zenith. The geometric antenna area is 72000 sq.m. There was a fundamental possibility of implementing four independent radio telescopes based on one antenna field. New digital recorders have been made. For more information about scientific programs and details of radio telescope reconstruction, see \citeauthor{Shishov2016} (\citeyear{Shishov2016}) and \citeauthor{Tyulbashev2016} (\citeyear{Tyulbashev2016}).

A survey on one of the implementations of the LPA LPI radio telescope was carried out around the clock. 96 beams located in the plane of the meridian and fixed in the direction of the sky were used. The size of the radiation pattern of one beam is approximately $0.5^o \times 1^o$. The central frequency of observations is about 110.5 MHz with a full reception band of 2.5 MHz. The band is divided into separate, narrower frequency channels. Two recording modes are simultaneously implemented on the recorder: in one mode, the band is divided into 6 channels with width of 430 kHz and the readout time is 0.1s, and in the second, the band is divided into 32 channels of 78 kHz and the readout time is 12.5 ms.

The search for periodic radio emission from J0357+3205 was carried out in individual power spectra for all processed days using the BSA-Analytics program (https://github.com/vtyulb/BSA-analytics ; Qt/C++ under the GPL V3.0 license). At the first stage, the program was used to select power spectra having harmonics corresponding to the period J0357+3205, the signal-to-noise ratio of which was S/N > 3. There were 36 such spectra. At the second stage, days with raw data were taken and a pulsar search was carried out. The "single\textunderscore period" mode was used in the BSA-Analytics program. In this mode, the known period and coordinates of the pulsar are set, no sorting of periods and time shifts is done to identify the exact location of the pulsar in right ascension. The search is carried out at a recording length of 180s (± 1.5 minutes from the maximum of the LPA LPI radiation pattern). As a known parameter, a period of 0.4441 seconds was taken, and then the dispersion measures were sorted over the interval 0<DM<200 $pc/cm^3$. The main detection criterion for a pulsar with a known period was the appearance of a second peak on the average profile when the original signal with a double period was added together at the maximum of the S/N ratio on measures of dispersion close to the true one.

\begin{figure*}[h]

    \caption{Contours of the average profiles of the gamma pulsar J0357+3205 obtained by addition with one period. From left to right are the contours extracted from the pictures of the average profiles in the gamma, X-ray and radio bands (\citeauthor{Abdo2009} (\citeyear{Abdo2009}), \citeauthor{Marelli2013} (\citeyear{Marelli2013}), \citeauthor{PeiWang2018} (\citeyear{PeiWang2018})). The rightmost figure is the average profile obtained from observations at the LPI LPA when averaging with a period P= 0.4441c. The horizontal axis in the figure shows the phase of the arrival of emission in the average profile in fractions of the period, the vertical axis shows the flux density in arbitrary units (a.u.).}
    \label{fig:fig2}
\end{center}
\end{figure*}

For two days (11/19/2015; 12/23/2016), peaks appeared in the region of DM=47 $pc/cm^3$ out of 36 processed on the "signal\textunderscore to\textunderscore noise dependence on the DM". The same DM was obtained from FAST observations (\citeauthor{PeiWang2018}, \citeyear{PeiWang2018}). Fig.~\ref{fig:fig1} shows the dependence of  S/N on DM and the profile accumulated with a double period on the DM = 47 $pc/cm^3$.

Let's compare our results with the results obtained by other authors. In the gamma range, one component is visible in the profile, which occupies a quarter of the period at half power (\citeauthor{Abdo2009}, \citeyear{Abdo2009}). That is, the half-width of the profile is about 100 ms. One component is also visible in the X-ray range (\citeauthor{Marelli2013}, \citeyear{Marelli2013}). Its half-width is also about 100 ms. In the radio range (\citeauthor{PeiWang2018}, \citeyear{PeiWang2018}), the profile is two-component. Based on the profile in the figure, one of the components is wide, and its half-width is approximately 90 ms. The second component is noticeably narrower, and is comparable in height to the wide component. Its half-width is approximately 25-30 ms. The distance between the components is approximately 165 ms. In our observations, only one narrow component is visible, and its half-width is approximately 20-25 ms, which is comparable to the width of the narrow component observed in FAST at a frequency of 1250 MHz. The height of the peaks in the average profile is 7 $\sigma_{noise}$. Unfortunately, in the conference presentation of FAST observations, it is not possible to compare the arrival phases of the components of the average profiles observed in the gamma, X-ray and radio bands. It can be assumed that the wide component observed in the gamma, X–ray and radio band (FAST) is the same, and the narrow component observed in FAST coincides with the narrow component observed on the LPA. Figure 2 shows the average profiles of observations in different ranges. The normalization of the profiles was made so that the maxima on the average profiles coincided in height. The lengths of the profiles were made the same.

Assuming that the pulsar has been detected, we will make a rough estimation of the peak pulsar flux density based on the theoretical estimate of the best sensitivity of the LPA LPI in the zenith direction (4.4 mJy; \citeauthor{Tyulbashev2016} (\citeyear{Tyulbashev2016})). Since the exact coordinates of the pulsar in right ascension and declination are known, it is possible to make corrections that take into account the features of the LPA LPI as a diffraction array. These corrections take into account the actual zenith distance of the source (correction =0.76), as well as the fact that the LPA LPI has a fixed direction of beams in the sky, does not coincide with the direction to the pulsar, and that the beam has a complex shape (correction= 0.47). We also take into account that S/N=10 in the resulting average profile (Fig.~\ref{fig:fig2}), and not S/N=6, as assumed in theoretical calculations (\citeauthor{Tyulbashev2016}, \citeyear{Tyulbashev2016}) (correction=10/6=1.67). The real pulse width is 5\%, not 10\%, as was thought for a typical pulse in the work [6] (correction= 0.70). Rough estimate of the flux density: $S_{111 MHz}$ =(4.4x1.67x0.70)/(0.76x0.47)=14 mJy.

A preliminary estimate of the observed pulsar flux density is 40 micro Jy at a frequency of 1250 MHz (\citeauthor{PeiWang2018}, \citeyear{PeiWang2018}). It is possible to make a formal estimation of the steepness of the spectrum $\alpha$, where $S \sim v ^{-\alpha}$. Spectral index is $\alpha$ =+2.4. The value of the spectral index may be significantly less, since periodic emission is found close to the sensitivity limit of the LPA LPI radio telescope and only once during all observation sessions.

Rondout offense sputters in loss to Spackenkill
By Rick RemsnyderFor the Times Herald-Record
Oct 3, 2015 at 8:41 PM Oct 3, 2015 at 11:29 PM
ACCORD — Rondout Valley coach George Iacobaccio is usually a glass half full kind of guy who finds something positive to say about his team. But after Section 9 Class B Division I foe Spackenkill scored the final 30 points in Saturday's 30-6 victory over the Ganders, the Rondout coach found solace only in the fact that his club still could make the playoffs.
"We still control our own destiny," Iacobaccio said, noting Rondout Valley could still qualify for the playoffs if it beat Highland and Red Hook over the next two weeks. "It's not going to be easy. I'm very disappointed in our performance today."
The Ganders (2-3 overall, 0-2 Class B Division I) got off to a quick start when sophomore defensive back Ben Hikade picked off Spackenkill quarterback Camron Abalos' first pass attempt of the misty and cold afternoon. Rondout Valley didn't score on that possession, but the theft flipped field position and after a short Spackenkill punt the Ganders were on the Spartans' 35-yard line.
Kelly Sherman (62 yards on 16 carries) capped the drive with a 1-yard TD run for a 6-0 lead, but in a prelude of things to come it took the Ganders three plays to punch it in from one yard out.
Spackenkill (4-1, 2-1) took a 12-6 lead midway through the second quarter on touchdown runs from running back Dhyquem Lewinson and Abalos.
But Rondout seemed ready to respond when it moved inside the Spartans' 10 after an 18-yard run by Hikade and two major penalties on the Spartans. But the drive ended with two stuffed running plays and two incomplete passes.
"It's a team game, but I have to put it on the offensive line today," said Iacobaccio. "We couldn't establish the running game today because we didn't block."
Ganders senior quarterback Jake Hikade, Ben's older brother, was constantly pressured and finished with only 80 yards passing and was picked off twice. Dangerous wide receiver Andrew Koonz, who came into the game with six touchdown catches, only caught two passes for two yards.
With Rondout's offense in slow motion, it was only a matter of time before the defense wore down. Abalos, who ran for 124 yards, made it 21-6 just before the half on a 12-yard run.
Spackenkill tacked on a safety and another Lewinson TD run in the fourth quarter to round out the scoring.
Although the loss spoiled the Ganders' Homecoming festivities, senior linebacker Daniel Kelly is hopeful Rondout Valley can turn things around starting with its home finale this coming Saturday vs. Highland.
"It just seemed like after the first and second quarters, we let down on some key plays and everyone got down on themselves," Kelly said. "We've got to pick up the intensity throughout the whole game and play two halves."

The Tékumel Community: A History
In the beginning, a star system got sucked into a pocket dimension. Along with it came hundreds of roleplayers and wargamers -- the Tékumel community. In this article, I will go over the various things that have been done over the years to support communication between the far-flung fans of the Tékumel community, outside of rules and supplements and other published material.
Almost immediately, The Powers That Be sought to support the Tékumel community. In 1977, the first fanzine was published, The Tékumel Journal. Though it only lasted two issues, it was chock full of great articles. But there was no feedback. No means for the players to contact each other. The later fanzines (Imperial Miltary Journal and The Journal of Tékumelani Affairs) provided a means for players to have some of their adventure reports published (i.e. Imperial Dispatches), as well as a means to contact other people in their area. The last official fanzine was The Imperial Courier (Vol. 2 No. 2) in 1987.
It took the Internet to get the community to really talk to each other.
The first attempt at getting these folks talking was my Tékumel Digest, a moderated electronic mailing list before the web existed. The first digest went out May 10, 1991, and it consisted of a single message from me about using Christopher Pound's language confluxer script to take Tsolyáni words and generate new Tsolyáni names from them. The Digest was constructed by hand, because I was not aware of any automated mailing list administrative software. People sent me their questions and comments, and I built the digest from them. I did this until I lost my regular email access at my employer when I got laid off in July 1992. Bob Alberti took over after that, continuing the Digest till August 1993. I store the archives for the Tékumel Digest at my website.
I don't know what we did until Chris Davis started The Blue Room in May 1995. Probably twiddled our thumbs and deconstructed Gardásiyal. The Blue Room was another email list, with the wonderful addition of Professor Barker making in-depth comments and answering questions. Over a thousand messages were exchanged until June 2000, when circumstances ended The Blue Room. The Blue Room Archives are stored in the file section of the Tékumel mailing list. This is one of the definitive sources of information outside of the rule books, second only to The Tékumel Sourcebook for solid information. I still research topics in the archives of this tremendous resource. Luckily, there is a handy search engine to assist the erstwhile GM in finding out esoteric answers.
The next venture into electronic communication was the Tékumel list on OneList.com, started in February 2000. This list is still going, even after OneList.com was bought by eGroups.com, which was subsequently bought by Yahoo! Groups. Yahoo provides some file storage for the group. Numerous other groups have arisen as well, though most of them get little or no traffic now.
Tekumel-related Yahoo Groups
tekumel: The main Tékumel group. Active.
apatekumel: Visitations of Glory, the Tékumel Amateur Press Association (APA). No issues since Feb 2008. The files section contains most of the issues of the apazine, as well as Tekumel.com.
tekumelnovels: Discussion of Man of Gold and Professor Barker's other novels. Last message in 2009.
tsolyani: For the discussion of the Tsolyáni language. This summer they had a VOIP teleconference.
savage_tekumel: A group for developing a set of Savage Worlds rules for Tékumel. The author of this rule set posted drafts in 2009. Nothing has been posted since then.
tekumel-moderated: This group was originally intended to emulate The Blue Room, with questions submitted and answered by the Professor and his minions, leaving the Tékumel group for free-flowing, sometimes rancorous, discussions without moderation. Since the Professor has less energy for this type of activity, this group has been slow for a couple years.
TekumelArt: For the dissemination of fan art related to Tékumel, as well as discussion of various methods of producing said art, such as electronic means. Not much traffic.
TekumelMinis-War: This group is for talking about Tékumel miniatures and wargaming. The new figures have helped revitalize this group, which has recent activity.
tenebrousplaces: This group publishes Tenebrous Places: The Magazine for People Being Pursued by the Undead, a stylish graphic magazine with a humorous slant, as well as other graphical constructs of the moderator. It's been a couple years since the last post of substance, but the archives are well worth looking at.
I'm sure if people participated, people on these lists would respond, and perhaps the less active groups could be revived.
Bulletin Boards and Forums
There have been a few bulletin boards and forums for discussing Tékumel. The first I was aware of was Bill Cumberland's Tékumel discussion board on the Shadowlands BBS out of Vancouver, B.C. that lasted from 1991-94. Because it was a BBS, it had limited participation, since it required a phone call to use. The advent of the Web killed BBSes as they were (and Shadowlands was no exception), though some managed to reinvent themselves as mailing lists or web sites. (Shadowlands Archive available.)
For a long time before the Intarwebz, Usenet supplied one of the functions for keeping people connected. This was a large set of forums where people discussed everything, including Tékumel. alt.games.frp.tekumel existed for a long time as a low volume newsgroup, but Usenet also succumbed to the Web. Archives of a particularly active period from 1994-95 are held in the Weird Realm repository.
The latest excursions into forum communication are the Tékumel Forums on the official Tekumel.com site. Peter Gifford of Enmore, NSW, Australia added forum software to the site in May 2005. There are numerous discussions there that need more readers and responders. I encourage you to check it out and participate.
The Tekumel Facebook group is gets a fair amount of traffic. If you use FB a lot, check it out.
The Tékumel Google+ Community is brand new and quite active. I really like how it's taken off and brought new people into the bethorm of Tekumel.
This concludes my review of the means by which the Tékumel community keeps in touch. I hope this helps you find people to talk about Tékumel with, as well as provide some support for playing and refereeing in Tékumel. Enjoy.

Legos. And dinosaurs. Is there anything better for kids?
How about Legos and dinosaurs at the zoo?
This summer, for the first time ever, the UK-based Brick Dinos exhibit is traveling to the United States. Right to the Milwaukee County Zoo.
Guy Bagley, senior creative for Warren Elsmore Exhibitions, has made a career out of "playing with Legos" for the past 23 years. He traveled from Scotland to set up the exhibit in the special exhibits building at the zoo. That included shipping four life-size sculptures as well as 26 smaller scenes, and then repairing any damage incurred during their voyage across the pond.
While the exhibit is fun, it's also educational. Bagley said his boss, Warren Elsmore, worked with a paleontologist to ensure the accuracy of everything from the color of the dinosaurs to the plants in their habitats.

Here's what you have to look forward to at Brick Dinos:
There are four life-size (or almost life-size) displays. Bagley calls them "stop-and-wonder" pieces. That includes a 13-foot, meat-eating masiokasaurus; a pterosaur that hangs from the ceiling; a marine reptile plesiosaur; and a dinosaur egg nest.
There are 26 displays of Lego dinos under Plexiglas that show dinosaurs in their natural habitats.
There are two volcanic landscapes that allow kids to build their own dinosaurs. One of the landscapes will have soft bricks and Duplos for little kids to build with, and the other one will have plenty of regular Legos for bigger kids (and their moms and dads) to use.
Another hands-on opportunity presents itself in a graffiti wall. Lego bases are mounted on a wall, and visitors can use Legos to "write" messages.
In the dino dig area, kids can dig through a giant sandbox to unearth "fossilized" Legos.
For those eager to learn something new, there will be "Did you know" facts on the walls, and a video showing how the exhibit was designed and built.
There are dinosaur cutouts so your kids can pretend to be dinosaurs, and you can Instagram to your heart's content.
And, for master builders who are inspired by the exhibit, there's a book. "Brick by Brick Dinosaurs" provides a list of Lego bricks needed to re-create some of the displays, as well as instructions for building them.
Where: Milwaukee County Zoo, 10001 W. Blue Mound Road, at the Otto Borchert Family Special Exhibits Building (across from Macaque Island, near the aviary)
When: May 25 through Sept. 2, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.
Price: Admission to the exhibit is $3 (in addition to regular zoo admission — $16.25, $15.25 for seniors 60 and older, $13.25 for kids ages 3 to 12, and free for children 2 and younger), and you can come and go throughout the day.

My mother lived for most of her life within eyesight of the greatest of lakes.
The comings and goings of ships into the Duluth/Superior harbor was information she filed in her heart. She was Duluth. From the crest of the big hill to the shoreline of Lake Superior, she lived and moved and had her being.
A number of years ago – in 1985 – a freighter by the name of Socrates grounded on Park Point. The storm that tossed it onto the sand bar was the stuff of legends. My mother was one of the many who were drawn to the incongruous sight of that mighty grounded boat. It was evidence of what wind and water can do to the best-laid of plans.
And so it was yesterday.
Yesterday a storm hit Duluth that rivaled the power that tossed the Socrates. Winds in excess of 60 mph whipped the snow that fell. The temperature was in the low 30s.
After 19 months of somehow not being able to release my mother's earthly remains to the elements, my siblings and I had determined that yesterday was the day. We discerned that mom would want to be released in (at least) three places: her beloved church, her beloved lake, and in the cemetery where her parents and siblings are buried.
When we made these plans we joked about snow. It's Duluth, after all. Anything is possible in late October.
She who has always calmed our storms is with us yet.
As we committed her body to God's earth, we laughed about the tough, scrappy children who learned by their mother's example that whining about cold is no way to behave. We were out in the elements that she taught us to love: wind and water, tree song and wave crash. We held each other and gave thanks for the tiny immense scrap of a woman who gave us more than we will ever know or name.
Our family is no grounded boat.
We are afloat and alive and she is in it all.
I was recently in Norway. Part of our experience was spending twenty-four hours on a ship. We were on a fjord. The sun was shining, the waterfalls cascading, the wind was whipping and whilst bundled in blankets to keep warm I tuned into a soundtrack I had heard a lot about but never had the time to listen to.
Instantly I was taken into the story of hearts, ambition, and freedom fighting. A new nation was born through so much violence and hope. I cannot shake the soundtrack.
On the same journey I was reading a book called "The Nordic Theory of Everything: In Search of a Better Life" by Anu Partanen. The author was raised in Finland. She moves to the US and comes to ask why it is a society that is built upon the belief that all people are created equal would institutionalize disparity. Partanen speaks of the supports for new parents in the form of child care and paternity and maternity benefits. She goes on to speak of the educational system in Finland that seeks to create excellence in all schools; private schools are nearly unheard of. And then, there is the access to college because tuition is free or very very low cost. And health care. For all people.
In 2017 there is no less passion in the hearts of those who long for freedom. This past year has brought so many summons to awareness: Charlottesville, growing financial disparity, earth distress and chicanery in Washington DC haunt our sense of well-being on a daily basis.
Days after white supremacists marched in Charlottesville, people in Rochester gathered under the big top of this church. We were brown and white and Muslim and Christian. We were heart broken and shaken and needful of a place to remember who we are. We heard each other's despair and hope. We spoke prayers and intentions about working for a world where we ask – as the musical "Hamilton" does – who it is who lives and who dies and who tells the story of a life and a people?
How will our story be told?
We cannot pretend that what currently exists is working, save for a very small and privileged few.
I am one of those privileged.
Through my work as a minister of the gospel, I am part of a movement grounded in the belief that all people are sacred and invited to partake of abundance.
We have work to do. I have work to do.
Maybe it is because the earth is moaning through hurricanes and wild fires.
Maybe it is because our president continues to desecrate sacred truths.
Maybe it is because I miss my children and my mother and my cabin and my naiveté.
I don't know why I am polishing silver today, but it helps.
Oh the privilege of bequeathed beauty.
Oh how needful it is to provoke shine somewhere.

'Cops' probe suspected double suicide at Marriott parking lot
| April 24, 2022
Dead: Justin Teixeira (left) and Paishnarine 'Ritchie' Hansraj
POLICE are investigating the circumstances surrounding the deaths of 25-year-old Paishnarine 'Ritchie' Hansraj and 34-year-old Justin Teixeira who were found motionless inside a car at the Marriott Hotel parking lot in Kingston, Georgetown, early Saturday.
And officials at the Guyana Forensic Laboratory have determined that the "white hard substance" which was found in the back seat of the car tested negative for the presence of narcotics.
Crime Chief Wendell Blanhum told online news outlet, the News Room, that officials at the Forensic Laboratory believe that the substance may be sodium cyanide, which is lethal.
However, that is yet to be confirmed as investigators have to send the samples to be tested overseas.
"Officials from the Guyana Forensic Laboratory have indicated to investigators that they suspect the substances may be sodium cyanide which is lethal to human beings in small quantities. However, this suspicion cannot be confirmed by the Officials because the laboratory doesn't possess the capability to do such testing.
"As a consequence, the Guyana Police Force will resort to sending the samples to an overseas laboratory for further testing," the Crime Chief told the news agency.
Sodium cyanide is a poisonous compound; it is a white, water-soluble solid. Cyanide has a high affinity for metals, which leads to the high toxicity of this salt.
It is believed that both men took their lives. The police, in a statement, reported that investigators are reviewing CCTV footage in an effort to determine the circumstances leading to the deaths of the young men.
According to the police, investigators were told by a 28-year-old employee of the Marriott Hotel that he received a telephone call from Teixeira's 60-year-old mother at around 23:30hrs that her son was having a seizure. The mother asked if someone can check on him.
The hotel employee said he immediately dispatched another employee to check on Teixeira who was a guest at the hotel when it was discovered that the room he was staying in on the sixth floor was empty.
The employee then went, just after midnight, to Teixeira's black Vezel motorcar (PAC 2607) in the parking lot where he observed Teixeira sitting in the driver's seat, and all the windows of the vehicle were halfway down.
The employee said he opened the front passenger door and discovered Hansraj sitting in a crunch-like position. Both Teixeira and Hansraj appeared to be motionless.
The employee immediately called 911 and the ambulance with EMT arrived; both men were pronounced dead at the scene.
Police confirmed that no marks of violence were seen on the exposed parts of the bodies. The bodies were escorted to the Memorial Garden Funeral Home awaiting an autopsy.
Teixeira was a flight attendant attached to American Airlines and lived at Republic Park, East Bank Demerara. Hansraj is known for his singing and was slated to get engaged next month. He resided at Hague, West Coast Demerara and was the only son of his parents.
Police are also examining the Facebook accounts of both young men.
"And their last posts which were made approximately 8 to 15 hours ago appeared to be of some investigative value," the Crime Chief was quoted by the News Room as saying.
Hansraj's last post on Facebook was made just hours ago and it stated: "I hope the world find peace today I love you all!
Teixeira wrote on his page: "Life is like a coin. You can spend it any way you wish, but you only spend it once."

Spectacular emerald jewelry belonged to Miss Sackville-West.
Vita Sackville-West was a gifted poet, novelist, journalist, broadcaster and writer as well as one of the most influential English gardeners of the 20th century. The gardens she created with her husband Harold Nicolson at their home Sissinghurst Castle in Kent are world famous.
Sackville-West was also a complex and passionate woman who forged intense relationships with women throughout her life. She ran away for a brief time with her lover, Violet Trefusis, daughter of Edward VII's mistress Alice Keppell and her close friend, Virginia Woolf based the character of Orlando upon her; the resulting eponymous novel has been described as "the longest and most charming love letter in history".
Vita often referred to her dual nature; despite her modern, avant-garde, seemingly feminist impulses, including keeping her own name after marriage), she was in essence the product of a proud noble heritage: sophisticated, well-connected and well-travelled. In other words, very much part of the conventional aristocratic society into which she was born.
Another precious green was important for her, some emeralds presented to her wedding:
99-carat emerald tablet engraved with Indian floral design and set in engraved rock crystal and diamond mount; black silk cord with crystal slides rock crystal and emerald necklace, by Cartier, 1912 in Platinum
Set with a large cushion-shaped emerald tablet, engraved front and back with Indian floral motifs, within a frame of frosted rock crystal, engraved in similar taste, decorated with old brilliant and single-cut diamonds, surmounted by an engraved rock crystal and diamond fountain motif, on a long black cord necklace with rose-cut diamond clasp and two rock crystal barrel-shaped slides of floral and fluted decoration and rose-cut diamond finials, unsigned, numbered 1472, workshop marks for Henri Picq for Cartier, length of pendant 9.2cm
The pendant was offered for sale in 2020 at Bonham's London.


The Premier League is reaching its final stages but that doesn't mean the rumour mill is slowing down. Whether it's those at the top planning for next season or contingency plans by the already relegated, teams have begun rebuilding in earnest.
Without further ado here are the Premier League rumours for March 30.
We start in Manchester, where Ole Gunnar Solskjaer was announced as the permanent manager of Manchester United this week. According to Tuttosport the new gaffer has already pin pointed his next arrival.
Juventus attacker Douglas Costa is the man in question, and it's believed they will face competition from rivals Manchester City and also PSG if they wish to sign the former Bayern Munich man.
He is not the only Brazilian being linked with a move to Old Trafford. The Express claim Philippe Coutinho has informed his teammates he is considering leaving Barcelona with both United and Chelsea credited with an interest in his services.
One man who knows where he wants to go is Hirving Lozano. The former Pachuca player is desperate to move to Old Trafford according to the MEN . Man Utd were linked with Lozano many years ago, and may return for him this summer.
Meanwhile, down in London, it promises to be a busy summer for Tottenham Hotspur. The club didn't make a single signing this season, but it's believed they will seek to strengthen their side in the summer. That is despite Mauricio Pochettino refusing to give assurances he will remain at the club past the summer according to the Telegraph.
That won't stop the Argentine looking at summer targets, with Max Kruse believed to be on his shortlist. The Werder Bremen striker is out of contract in the summer and is drawing interest from Inter Milan and Spurs according to Sky Germany.
In the North East, Rafa Benitez has revealed the club have postponed contract talks with Salomon Rondon. The Venezuelan has been in fine form for the Magpies, but he is only on loan from West Bromwich Albion. Benitez is eager to see that deal made permanent, but he will hold off discussions until the summer according to Chronicle.
Benitez also confirmed talks regarding his contract have begun with Lee Charnley. The Spaniard will be a free agent in the summer, and has interest from the Chinese Super League.
And finally, one man who knows what he wants is Marco Silva. The Everton boss has this week pushed for stability at the club, and as part of that plan he is eager to make Andre Gomes his first summer signing. The Guardian are reporting they wish to sign Gomes, while the Times say they wish to add Kurt Zouma to the club permanently.
There are also decisions to be made on Phil Jagielka and Leighton Baines ahead of the summer in what is expected to be a period of change.

A top pastry chef has claimed that President Donald Trump's inauguration cake makers have copied the one he made for President Obama. Chef Duff Goldman said that the nine-layer cake created for President Trump's celebrations looked pretty much identical to the one he made four years ago when President Obama was elected to office for a second term.
The Ace of Cakes star chef, 42, posted a photo on Twitter, captioning it: "The cake on the left is the one I made for President Obama's inauguration four years ago. The one on the right is Trump's. I didn't make it." His post has gone viral since he first uploaded it on Friday night.
President Obama's cake featured different colours of blue icing, starting off with a paler blue for the bottom tier, which worked its way to a navy on the top. It also featured decorations including stars, stripes and military and presidential seal. The flavours for Mr Obama's celebrations were different for each layer, including pineapple, lemon-poppy and red velvet cake. President Trump's cake looked incredibly similar to the one made for Mr Obama, although it is not known which flavours the new president opted for.
Tiffany MacIsaac, who owns the Buttercream Bakeshop in Washington said that she had created the cake after getting an order from "out of town". She explained that she had been given a photograph of the Obama cake and asked to recreate it.
She added that the bakery had urged the client to use the image as a source of inspiration rather than copying it. However, they had replied that they wanted the exact cake, which is why it had been replicated. The bakery also revealed that it was donating the profits from the cake to the Human Rights Campaign charity, which earlier declared Mr Trump unfit to be president.

Trump and Bannon are locked in a 'cuck fight' on the cover of the NY Daily News
Hoo boy.
By Shannon Connellan on January 4, 2018

> Life
The feathers are flying in the White House, and on the front of the New York Daily News.
The publisher has revealed quite the cover, depicting President Donald Trump and former White House Chief Strategist Steve Bannon as chickens engaged in a "cuck fight."
SEE ALSO: Bannon called that Trump Jr. meeting 'treasonous' and the internet is losing it
The cover is something to behold, fronting a feature unpacking Trump's claim that Bannon "lost his mind" for calling Donald Trump Jr.'s Trump Tower meeting with a Russian lawyer "treasonous."
If you're not across it, a "cuck" is a dismissive term used by the so-called alt-right to belittle men associated with liberal politics as weak and effeminate. (It's literal shorthand for a man being sexually cuckolded by a woman.)
Behold, we can't look away:
The cover references the verbal battle that has erupted between Trump and Bannon, after a swathe of wildly provocative statements were made public as excerpts from Michael Wolff's upcoming book Fire and Fury: Inside the Trump White House.
In one of the excerpts, obtained by The Guardian, when asked about the Russia meeting Bannon reportedly said, "Even if you thought that this was not treasonous, or unpatriotic, or bad shit, and I happen to think it's all of that, you should have called the FBI immediately."
Trump vehemently responded to Bannon's assertions. "Steve Bannon has nothing to do with me or my presidency," he said in a statement released by the White House. "When he was fired, he not only lost his job, he lost his mind."
Trump's lawyers have issued a cease and desist letter against Bannon for his disparaging comments about Trump and his family. And Trump, suspicious of leaks, has said he'll possibly take away staffer cellphones like they're in junior high.
This ain't done.

AGF MEETS ICPC BOSS OVER SARAKI,AKPABIO AND OTHER CORRUTION CASES
Attorney General of the Federation and Minister of Justice, Mr. Abubakar Malami, on Monday intensified his efforts to reopen some high profile cases which had since been investigated but yet to be prosecuted by the nation's anti-corruption and other law enforcement agencies.
The minister and his representative met with a number of law enforcement agencies as part of his moves to reopen "abandoned" high profile criminal cases, or those "crawling or gone to sleep." sources told our correspondent on Monday.
The PUNCH had exclusively reported that Malami, had written to the Chairman of the Independent Corrupt Practices and other related offences Commission, Mr. Ekpo Nta, requesting the duplicate case files on the former governors.
Part of the AGF's letter, sighted by our correspondent had indicated that the cases against the former governors had been investigated some years ago but charges were never filed against them.
The AGF, it was learnt, held a meeting with Nta at his office in the Federal Ministry of Justice, Abuja on Monday and informed him that he had instructed the National Prosecution Coordination Committee to collate high profile criminal cases being handled by the commission.
Our correspondent also learnt that the Chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, Mr. Ibrahim Magu, was scheduled to be part of the meeting.
It was however learnt that the AGF decided to hold the meet with only Nta, since the EFCC boss failed to personally attend the meeting.
It was learnt that the Special Assistant to the President on Research/Special Project, Mr. Sylvester Imhanobe, also met with the representatives of the EFCC and some other law enforcement agencies at the Federal Ministry of Justice in Abuja, to brief them on the activities of the NPCC, on Monday.
Our correspondent gathered that the meeting between the AGF and Nta held simultaneously with the one held between Imhanobe and the representatives of the other law enforcement agencies.
The law enforcement agencies whose representatives met with the Imhanobe on Monday were the police, the EFCC and the Department of State Services.
Representatives of the Federal Inland Revenue Service also attended the meeting.
The meeting, which the AGF held with the ICPC boss held behind closed door, but our correspondent obtained a copy of the speech which the minister prepared for the meeting initially planned to involve the heads of the various agencies.
The speech was made available to our correspondent by the minister's spokesperson, Mr. Salihu Isah.
The AGF indicated that he had tasked the NPCC to collate the list of all high profile cases, scrutinise the evidence and charges and analyse reports from investigation and prosecution teams engaged to handle the cases.
The AGF said, "The main objective of the National Prosecution Coordination Committee is to monitor the prosecution of high profile criminal cases in Nigeria, so as to advise me on the exercise of my prosecutorial powers in sections 150 and 174 of the 1999 Constitution (as amended).
"To achieve this objective, I have tasked the NPCC with the following:
"Collate the list of all high profile criminal cases;
"Scrutinise the evidence and charges, and
"Receive and analyse reports from investigation and prosecution teams engaged to handle such cases.
"In order to deliver on the aforementioned mandate, I have also directed the NPCC to do the following:
"Assess/review the status of the prosecution of existing (and "abandoned") high profile criminal cases initiated by the Director of Public Prosecution of the Federation and all other federal agencies exercising prosecutorial powers.
"Assess/review the performance and conduct of counsel of counsel in the prosecution of the cases particularly in respect of high profile cases 'crawling on gone to sleep';
"Advocacy assessment of prosecuting counsel of high profile criminal cases in court to monitor capacity, competence, performance and progress of the cases."
The PUNCH had reported that the Senate President, Dr. Bukola Saraki; a factional Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party, Ali Modu Sheriff; and Senate Minority Leader, Godswill Akpabio, were among 31 former governors whose corruption cases investigated by the anti-graft agencies are likely to be re-opened soon.
