"Family is the driving force behind who we are as people and where we will ultimately end up in life. I was raised in a loving home by two exceptional parents who taught me the basic but essential principles on which I have shaped my life: be kind, work hard, stay humble, and help others. When I look back on my path to becoming a family law attorney, there is one value that seems to stand out more boldly than the rest, and that is the desire to help others. Through my experiences while working for a small business clinic in law school, and through fundraising for the national CASA for children association, I found a way to help families get their lives back on track after facing some extremely difficult situations. I realized that family law is relevant in so many aspects of our lives, whether we see it or not.

Alt-right supporters are burning MAGA hats after reports of Trump's alleged DACA deal
#burnmyMAGAhat
By Nicole Gallucci on September 15, 2017
News of Donald Trump reaching a possible DACA deal with Democratic congressional leaders has infuriated members of the alt-right.
And, as we've learned from the hashtag #burnmyMAGAhat, those alt-right supporters are taking their anger with the president out on his hats. Sad!

Politico and other outlets reported on Wednesday night that Democratic leaders Chuck Schumer and Nancy Pelosi confirmed they'd come to an agreement with Trump on a plan that would protect the nearly 800,000 people at risk by ending DACA.
The terms reportedly included providing Trump with additional border security but no promises on funding for his proposed wall. After hearing of the bipartisan move, firm alt-right supporters felt betrayed by Trump, and expressed their frustration by burning their Make American Great Again hats in protest.
In addition, the hashtag #AmnestyDon also started circulating after Trump said "We're not looking at amnesty. We're looking at allowing people to stay here," while speaking to reporters in Florida.
Even Breitbart jumped in with the "Amnesty Don" moniker.
Despite Trump sharing a denial of the deal on Twitter, many members of the alt-right were still upset after the president defended Dreamers as "good, educated, and accomplished people."
In addition to those condemning Trump's behavior by burning their hats, prominent conservatives like Ann Coulter and Sean Hannity, and members of the alt-right like expert conspiracy theorist Mike Cernovich, also spoke out.
Cernovich bashed the president's followers in a tweet, which has since been deleted, calling them "stupid, low energy, and overall losers."

Cernovich then hopped on Periscope and filmed a livestream titled "The Dream is Over for Trump supporters," where he had a full-on meltdown about the president's recent actions.
Sounds like Trump better keep a watchful eye on his precious ratings and merch sales.

The show must go on. Fleetwood Mac — Stevie Nicks, Christine McVie, John McVie and Mick Fleetwood — spoke out for the first time since Lindsey Buckingham abruptly exited the band earlier this month.
Fleetwood Mac announced on April 9 that former member of Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers Mike Campbell and Crowded House's Neil Finn would replace their longtime guitarist on their upcoming tour.
The band, which originally formed in 1967, is set to hit the road for a 52-date tour in October. Nicks also addressed her personal relationship with Buckingham, whom she dated in the '70s.

'Divergent Series: Ascendant' TV Adaptation In The Works With Starz, Will The Original Cast Continue ?
Alexis Villarias
The Divergent Series: Ascendant has been swirling with cancellation rumors after their supposed spring 2017 premiere was indefinitely delayed. Fans can now rejoice as the next Divergent series isn't canceled after all. Rather, it is currently being worked into a TV series on Starz.
The next Divergent movie is now being developed into a TV series according to an exclusive report by Deadline. This major title will reportedly air on the company's new subsidiary, Starz. Original writer Adam Cozad will executive produce alongside director Lee Toland Krieger.
The Divergent Series: Ascendant was originally scheduled for a theatrical release in June 2017, but an indefinite delay was announced last year. The fourth title in the series would have squared off against a reboot of The Mummy and World War Z 2. However, the studio had to rethink its strategy considering the performance of Allegiant in the spring 2016 box office. This prompted speculations of cancellation and a TV spinoff. Later on, Lionsgate television group confirmed that The Divergent Series: Ascendant will be adapted into a standalone television series.
The initial idea of the studio is to finalize the storylines of the current cast into a TV movie, giving way to new cast members to continue the story. However, it remains unknown if this original idea will still be followed.
As such, the real challenge now is to get the original cast members, which includes Shailene Woodley, Miles Teller, and Ansel Elgort to appear in the TV series. This will give them a chance to finish their character's storylines, which will give way to a spin-off.
Casting the original members could prove difficult, considering Shailene Woodley openly expressed her intentions in the rumored television adaptation. In an interview earlier this year, Woodley said she had no plans to appear if the Divergent Series: Ascendant movie will be turned into a TV movie. More so, Miles Teller chimed in with the same sentiment.
Meanwhile, Ansel Elgort is reportedly swamped up considering the huge success of Baby Driver earlier this summer. Considering their contracts were for feature films, the actors aren't technically obliged to comply with the changes.
The Divergent Series is based on Veronica Roth's best-selling series focused on a post-apocalyptic society where people are divided into factions. The story mainly follows the story of Tris Prior, who leads a rebellion against the caste system imposed by the society. The third movie Allegiant found Tris realizing that her world was just a social experiment bigger than she could ever imagine.
Stay tuned to get the latest update on the Divergent Series: Ascendant including casting news and release date.

Young woman holding her head in pain[/caption]Your doctor will most likely prescribe you some sort of prescription medication to treat your tinnitus, however, relief is not always guaranteed and these drugs can have possible side effects. Homeopathic herbal treatments, hypnosis and retraining therapy are just a few of the treatments available to help you with your ear ringing. In extreme cases, chiropractors have been able to reduce or even cure tinnitus by relieving a root cause. To understand this we first need to look at how the ear functions. Ongoing ear ringing is a condition called tinnitus. Forget about the things that are bothering you that really aren't that important. But at least I'm trying.
People who are experiencing minor tinnitus may not understand why there is a need to tinnitus medicine but for people who are gravely affected by this ringing sound, their happiness and gratitude to makers of tinnitus cure is never ending. But, this can be a dead end, because if the cause of one's tinnitus is not found and treated, the tinnitus itself can actually get worse as one gets older. Get in the game by focusing on what it is you really want out of life. When this happens your ears will ring. Sound sleep is often nearly impossible. Tinnitus occurs when a person hears sounds (most commonly ringing in the ears) when there is no external source producing the sound. For most people, it may be a constant ringing sound, for others, the sound may be intermittent.
You will be provided with a book that will guide you all the way through your treatment. If you have any ringing noises in your ears after being exposed to loud noise this is a warning sign that your hearing is at risk and you have to take action to avoid it. If your thoughts are of being a happy productive participant in life then tinnitus will not rule your world. As this is the case, a medical advice should be sought. In conclusion tinnitus is a common ailment that many people suffer from so it's important to learn the different methods to stop the noises that you hear in your head and to live a better life style free from the buzzing and singing in your ears. The medical science has brought about a solution for you that will surely cure your problem with tinnitus cure. The sounds have kept worse and impossible to deal with.
There are several ways to gain relief from this noise and this depends on what is triggering it, but you need to take action and stop it. Phase Shift Tinnitus Reduction Therapy or PSTR Therapy is another innovative treatment option for tinnitus which was pioneered by Drs. I was a skeptic at first, but soon came to realize that there were no side effects and no risk involved. According to recent statistics there are approximately 12 million people in the United States alone who are unable to function normally because of the affects of their tinnitus. Stop sitting on the side lines waiting for an answer when you have finally found the one that is an answer to your prayers and then some. Not only that but you will become fitter and enjoy life more which may also help you to forget about the tinnitus more often too. One of which is retraining or even the use of a masking device that you can add onto a hearing aid.

The night of the 2018 Point-in-Time Count occurs on January 31, 2018. This is when Charlotte-Mecklenburg counts the number of people experiencing homelessness in emergency shelter, transitional housing and on the streets. In 2017, that total was 1,476. The Point-in-Time Count helps communities like ours understand and describe the scope of homelessness on one night — the number and the characteristics. When we compare that number year over year and combine it with other performance data, we can better understand whether we are making progress in the work to end and prevent homelessness.
There are a number of changes to the 2018 Point-in-Time Count — some are changes required by the United States Department of Housing & Urban Development (HUD) and some are changes initiated from our community.
Each year, HUD issues a notice to outline required changes to data collection for the Point-in-Time Count. This year, one major change is the way that domestic violence information is collected. To read more about this change and to understand how Charlotte-Mecklenburg and other communities are responding, check out this article published on Jan 19 by The Pew Charitable Trusts.
Charlotte-Mecklenburg has also made local changes to the surveys in order to gather information that can better inform solutions for housing. Recognizing the tension between the burden of answering private and sensitive questions and the value of data to inform solutions, the Point-in-Time Count Steering Committee and providers across the homeless services spectrum provided input on survey questions. New questions cover income, perceived barriers to housing, family separation and specific questions directed toward youth. The survey is not required and is not linked to services.
In addition to adding new questions, this year Charlotte-Mecklenburg is surveying the full Point-in-Time Count population. Before 2018, any non HUD-required questions such as whether a person was from Charlotte-Mecklenburg or new to the community was asked with the population experiencing homelessness outside, which is only 15% of the overall count.
By surveying everyone, the data we collect will be representative of the full population — sheltered and unsheltered, families and single adults, veteran and people experiencing chronic homelessness.
The data collection effort began on Monday, Jan 15 with volunteers at the Men's Shelter of Charlotte and Salvation Army Center of Hope. Most of the people experiencing homelessness in emergency shelter and transitional housing (1,261 people were counted in 2017) are in these two shelters. By starting early, we are able to survey people in both shelters during the course of two weeks instead of completing it at one time on one night. Starting on Monday, Jan 22, volunteers will also complete surveys at the YWCA. Volunteers will finish the sheltered count with shifts at the Salvation Army Center of Hope, Men's Shelter and Room In the Inn on Jan 31 and Feb 1.
In addition to volunteers, staff also complete data entry and conduct surveys with the residents staying in their emergency shelters and transitional housing facilities. Coordinating with the HMIS Administrator, Mary Ann Priester, staff run census reports to determine their counts and ensure data is accurate and correct.
The second part of the Point-in-Time Count focuses on the population experiencing homelessness outside, including the streets, parks, cars and in others places unfit for human habitation. Volunteers will go out into all parts of Mecklenburg County on the night of Jan 31 and the morning of February 1 to complete surveys. These volunteers are organized into teams, each with a team lead. Additional support is provided by Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department officers, who dress in plain clothes and attend as part of the team.
Between Monday, January 15 and Thursday, February 1, volunteers will cover over 80 shifts, completing surveys with people experiencing homelessness in emergency shelter and transitional housing. Staff will complete surveys, enter data, and create reports to determine the full sheltered census on the night of January 31. Data will be reviewed, cleaned and analyzed, comparing the final data set to reports in the Homeless Management Information System (HMIS), and the Veteran and Chronic Homelessness registries.
The Point-in-Time Count would not be possible without dedicated volunteers and staff. We are also grateful to the people we count, who are willing to provide answers to personal questions while in the midst of the trauma of homelessness.
The results of the Point-in-Time Count reflect the work of more than 250 volunteers and staff with over 1,000 people who are experiencing homelessness in Charlotte-Mecklenburg, and the power of a conversation. These conversations result in survey data that can inform housing solutions moving forward. The next step is to use the information that we collect to make those housing solutions a reality.
Rebecca Pfeiffer (City of Charlotte) leads the Sheltered Count and Allison Winston (Urban Ministry Center) leads the Unsheltered Count. Mary Ann Priester (Mecklenburg County) oversees the data that is collected.
There are additional survey slots still available, which can be viewed here.
Courtney Morton coordinates community posts on the Building Bridges Blog and serves as project manager for the Point-in-Time Count. Courtney is the Housing & Homelessness Research Coordinator for Mecklenburg County Community Support Services. Courtney's job is to connect data on housing instability, homelessness and affordable housing with stakeholders in the community so that they can use it to drive policy-making, funding allocation and programmatic change.

Ponzi Schemes Continue to Plague the Cryptocurrency Sector
News Regulation Scams
by Mark Hartley September 14, 2020, GMT+0000, 19:25 pm September 14, 2020, GMT+0000, 19:33 pm
Reports have emerged today revealing another multi-level marketing, or 'Ponzi', scheme that is being investigated in Texas. In an announcement made earlier today, the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) filed a complaint against four Texan residents for their involvement in what is believed to have been an illegal investment scheme.
For several months in late 2016, it's alleged that the four defendants promoted a business as an investment opportunity driven by "master traders" with years of experience in cryptocurrency trading. As is common in multi-level marketing (MLM) scams, potential investors were offered bonuses for bringing on new clients. They were also guaranteed unrealistic returns on their initial investment and coerced into making further investments.
The defendants involved were named as Mayco Alexis Maldonado Garcia, Cesar Castaneda, Rodrigo Jose Castro Molina, and Joel Castaneda Garcia. Details of the scope of the operation involve up to $989,000 in illegally obtained funds from at least 27 unwitting victims.
MLM Scams still rife in Crypto
Despite the case dating back almost four years, the details closely mirror that of recent MLM scams in the cryptocurrency sector. Less than a month ago, the Texas State Securities Board filed action against a South African-based investment scheme called Mirror Trading International, successfully shutting down their activities in the US. Not long after, South Africa's own Financial Services Conduct Authority (FSCA) began its own investigations into the company.
Despite the glaringly obvious signs of a Ponzi scheme, investors seem to keep falling for these scams. Just like the many before it, MTI also offers its investors unrealistically high monthly returns of 10% and financial incentives to bring on new investors. The company also holds no license to operate and was recently blocked by the broker FX Choice who claimed it has "virtually non-existent" trading activity.
However, despite the damning evidence and ongoing investigation, the MTI website remains operational, with recent reports claiming the company has received over $170 million in client funds.
Taking the rap
Another crypto scammer in the news today Ryan Felton who ran two fraudulent crypto companies in 2017, FLiK and Coinspark, and used rapper T.I for promotions. After stealing $1.3 million in investor funds through an ICO, the companies went bust and Felton disappeared with the money. Despite not receiving any money from the project, T.I today settled a $75,000 fine with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) for his unwitting part in the scheme.
Felton, on the other hand, allegedly made several extravagant purchases with client funds, including a Ferrari, expensive property, and diamond jewelry. Government agencies are still attempting to recover the funds as Felton has so far managed to evade charges.

This little boy, who turns 2 months old today, joined the Byrd family this past Friday. when we went to pick him up he was so, so scared that I thought he was not going to like his new home. Luckily I was wrong.
O'Malley so happens to be the silliest little cat I have ever met (and, granted, it hasn't been that many cats since my dad can't stand cats…which makes me wonder: will he ever visit us again?). In just the few days he has ben with us he has made us crack up in laughter quite a few times. From playing with a feather and rolling backwards to stretching on the couch's arm rest and falling off to have me look over at him and being glared at as if I was the one who pushed him off. And our favorite: his spontaneous bursts of energy where he just takes off running like a maniac.
Oh, and I forgot to mention, this little boy thinks going potty is fun! Every time he has to go he runs to his litter box and starts jumping all over the place. Once he is done he starts flinging the litter rocks all over the place. If cats could laugh he would giggle like a little kid.
Mr. O'Malley has some very pretty eyes.
How could anyone not like this cutie! You should try to get your dad over while he is still in the tiny/cute stage.
They live in Texas!! I wish he could come see the kitty!
Oh my goodness, he is sooooooooooo adorable!!!
Congratulations on your precious little bundle of joy – I was SO happy to read your post! Your kitten is one of the most beautiful babies I think I've ever seen! He is so full of happiness and life!
I am a happy feline guardian!! This little boys is seriously perfect for our family! He is silly and such a dork!! And he loves to climb up my pants so he can sit on my lap. He is a lover.
PS: Thanks for the follow!! And O'Malley says hi!!
Oh my goodness, Mister O'Malley is absolutely adorable! We recently added a new kitten addition of our own and she has also fallen off the arm of the couch while napping or stretching, only to hop back up and look at us like we did it. So funny!
What a gorgeous cat! Beautiful photography too!
OMG LOVEEE!!! Super cute cat!! adorable pics!
Don't think I've ever seen a cat with such beautiful eyes. Precious indeed! Happy WW!
He's a pretty little cat. Seems friendly too. Some cats are mean and not affectionate at all!
Awesome shots, totally cute kitty!!!
Mr. O'Malley seems to be adjusting to his new domain quite well. he is cute & sounds like a little rascal!
Aww, so sweet! Wonderful photos you got.
He has just started to pounce on our feet as we walk by!! It is so cute and quite hilarious!!
Awww! Did you name him after Thomas O'Malley on the Aristocats? I'm singing his song in my head now lol. He is so adorable!!
What a beautiful littler tiger!! And those eyes are gorgeous!!
Aah what a little cutie! I love the blue eyes.
Aawww! This cat is so lovable. I want to cuddle him so bad.
Oh! So cute! 2 months old! He is really lovely and those eyes!
You managed to grab some really neat photos of your kitten. Well done!

Melbourne's strategic planning history has largely overlooked the contribution of Ruth and Maurie Crow. The Crows were early champions of functional mix and compact urban development. They didn't eulogise lower-density suburban form, but equally didn't advocate higher densities as necessarily humanising in themselves.
"…the debate around the plan for the future of a city is not essentially a debate about things … buildings, cars, trains, roads and so on, and their placement; although it often expresses itself in these terms. It is essentially a debate about human relationships."
The compact city has been a steadfast trope in Australia's strategic planning rhetoric since the 1980s. Consolidation of urban areas, containment of outward growth, and a multi-nuclear metropolitan structure are deemed necessary to support increasing populations in uncertain socio-ecological futures.
Despite this naturalised policy ambition, metropolitan planning has delivered what Clive Forster termed a "parallel universe phenomenon". The vast gaps between planning intent and urban reality have everyday justice implications, resulting in a parallel justice phenomenon.
The justice ambitions have often been subsumed into transformations of our cities driven by economic rationality. For the Crows, the goal of social justice was paramount.
WHAT HAS DRIVEN URBAN TRANSFORMATIONS?
Melbourne's strategic planning history is marked by an alternating desire for containment and decentralisation. Various propositions have come to the fore, including "the dispersed city", "satellite cities", "growth corridors", and "the redirected city".
The late 1960s and early 1970s were a transitional moment in Melbourne's development. Unfettered expansion had typified the city since the 1930s. Now the growth trajectories of both the metropolitan area and the central city were being publicly questioned.
The Crows' Plan for Melbourne was rejected on the grounds of its seemingly unachievable restructuring propositions. Instead, in 1971, the Melbourne Metropolitan Board of Works advanced the elusive "growth corridors and green wedges" policy. The radical implications of the Crows' proposed "clustering", "concourses" and "collectives" to create an inclusive, accessible and convivial city weren't considered.
Read more: The quest for the convivial city: how do ours fare?
The compact city ideal was not validated in official planning rhetoric until the 1981 strategic plan. Spatial consolidation then became de facto policy. The aim was to promote inner-city population and employment growth, as well as greater use of existing infrastructure and services.
However, market-driven compaction contributes to uneven distribution of, and precarious access to, social infrastructure, affordable housing, public transport and hospitable urban life across the city. The result is a shortfall of social justice.
Heavily involved in citizen activism, The Crows dedicated themselves to the "urban action movement". They were amateur planners, heterodox communists, and avid community members. They proposed radical alternatives to what they understood as the injustices of urbanisation and capitalism.
"You have to project the future: a more workable, more humane, more ecological future, and then battle towards it. Maybe the goals will change as you battle towards them: but without goals there is no battle, only unending class scrimmage within the system."
For the Crows, urban consolidation had two interlocking objectives. The first was to concentrate social activity and so minimise transport energy. The second was to heighten participatory enjoyment.
The Crows proposed a compact city with explicit structural elements. In their future Melbourne, towns were to be clustered along a linear spine towards the southeast. A rapid transit network would connect a string of "mini-metro hearts" and "city-metro hearts" to allow for easy commuting.
Multi-functional zoning and high-density cores distinguished their towns from existing suburbs. The Crows proposed dedicated first-level concourses in their "metro hearts" to promote commerce-free encounters. These high-density core areas were to be entirely vehicle-free and were intended to overcome social isolation.
Concourses were designed as a "therapeutic measure", counteracting the "community scattering trend" of the car. These areas would allow for "deliberate voluntary contact", encouraging interaction beyond the fleeting yet pervasive contact of commercial transaction. The Crows' intention was to catalyse spaces for voluntary collectives to form and flourish as a means to enhance the "tone" or "ethos" of the community.
The Crows' Plan for Melbourne presented a radical alternative to what mainstream planners were proposing at the time.
Their calls for compaction were informed by spatial justice ambitions to minimise alienation, increase accessibility and support the need for social interaction. They proposed clustering, concourses and collectives to ensure access and inclusion; this was compaction for conviviality rather than capital accumulation.
Melbourne has certainly transformed into a vibrant centre since the Crows' Plan for Melbourne. Whether it is being planned as a just city is questionable. Hyper-density and visible homelessness are now emblematic of the city.
The Crows warned 50 years ago that, without a clear justice intent driving metropolitan development, we risked looking back with regret that the struggle to shape our cities for their citizens rather than vested interests began too late.

Tanya Huff Interview - Into the Broken Lands
6:00 AM JBN, Jean Book Nerd, Tanya Huff Interview - Into the Broken Lands 5 comments
Photo Content from Tanya Huff
Tanya Huff may have left Nova Scotia at three, and has lived most of her life since in Ontario, but she still considers herself a Maritimer. On the way to the idyllic rural existence she shares with her partner, Fiona Patton, six cats, and a Chihuahua, she acquired a degree in radio and television arts from Ryerson Polytechnic University—an education she was happy to finally use while writing her recent Smoke novels. Of her previous twenty-three books, the five featuring Henry Fitzroy, bastard son of Henry VIII, romance writer, and vampire—Blood Price, Blood Trail, Blood Lines, Blood Pact, Blood Debt—are among the most popular.

Greatest thing you learned at school?
Just before I left grade six, my teacher, Mr. Percell took me aside and said, "Tanya, you'll go far in this world if you can remember one thing: brain first, mouth second."
It's still a struggle...
When/how did you realize you had a creative dream or calling to fulfill?
When packing up my grandmother's things, (father's mother) I found a letter my Nanny (mother's mother) wrote to my father when he was deployed. In it, she transcribed a story I told her about a spider who lived at the bottom of the garden. This spider had a very active life; it went on for about two pages. I illustrated it.
I was three.
And it was obvious even then that I was a storyteller, not an artist.
Beyond your own work (of course), what is your all-time favorite book and why?
If you were sending me to a desert island and forcing me to choose only one book to take with me, I'd have to say BRIDGE OF BIRDS by Barry Hugart (St. Martin's Press, 1984) because it's clever and kind and funny and I cry every time I read it. (The last time was about two months ago)
Anything by Diana Wynne Jones is a close second.
And what is your favorite book outside of your genre?
It's solid tie between Georgette Heyer's THE TOLLGATE and L. M. Montgomery's RILLA OF INGLESIDE.
Can you tell us when you started INTO THE BROKEN LANDS, how that came about?
INTO THE BROKEN LANDS was a long percolating book, like THE SILVERED. It started with Nonee/Uvili, internally human, externally not. She's not like the people around her. How does she find a place to belong while still being herself. I let that rumble around in the background for a while.
And if you have someone like Nonee/Uvili you have to have a story dense enough to support the weight. So, over the years, I build the world.
Then you need a story, with danger equal to your hero. (There's a reason Gotham city attracts so many psychos in costume.) Why is this character a part of THIS story. Turned out, she was a part of two stories woven around each other.
When all this coalesced, I wrote it down. Although, to be accurate, I rewrote the first thirty pages two billion, seven hundred and forty-three million, two thousand and seven times. (I exaggerate.)(A little.)
TEN RANDOM FACTS ABOUT INTO THE BROKEN LANDS
1. Geographically, Gateway (the more northern city) is where Milan, Italy is.
2. I drew up a family tree for the Lord Protectors, from the first Captain Marsan, to Ryan, Heir of Marsan. It had birthdates and ages and the years between generations carefully worked out – just so I could be sure it worked if Ryan was twenty. Once I was sure, I never looked at it again. I don't currently know where it is or if I even kept it.
3. It's not a squid.
4. Many years ago, at a convention in San Francisco, I went out to dinner with a couple of other authors and we cracked ourselves up making jokes about ducks. Believing ourselves to be extraordinarily clever, we agreed to keep throwing ducks randomly into things. That's why there's ducks.
5. If nine people who like each other spend a month travelling on a single road at the speed of a wagon pulled by the world's equivalent of Shire horses, someone is going to have sex. Possibly several someones. Although they have it off screen before the book begins...
6. The scene under and around the tallest tree was a lot longer but I eventually decided there was no point in Lyelee actually doing the math to work out the height of the tree since it didn't actually matter how high the tree was. But her explanation to Harris? That's actually how you do it.
7. We were watching Avatar when I named Boe Mah Sing, the mage's name inspired by the Earth city but different enough you'd probably have never noticed had I not told you.
8. The argument about whether it's safer to pee in the wood wearing trousers or a robe/skirt kept coming up over and over in the first draft. I thought it contained some funny lines and some good information but unfortunately, it wasn't necessary information so distilled it down to one conversation.
"At least I'd have a weapon in my hand..."
9. The Citadel is called the Citadel because I was born in Halifax.
10. I felt really sorry for the last of the "monsters" because he'd obviously been pieces together by one of the mages, probably Tanika Fleshrender. I can't help wondering what happened to the pieces leftover...
"Tanika," Lyelee corrected. "Tanika Fleshrender."
"Seriously, Fleshrender? That's a little on the nose, isn't it?"
"Yes. She named herself. She was proud of what she could do."
"That's a little creepy," Keetin muttered.
What is the first job you had?
Either babysitting or mucking out the stalls at the harness racing stables. I was about twelve and they happened around the same time.
Early bird or night owl? What time of day do you do most of your writing?
So very much not an early bird! If I'm up by 8:30AM I'm excited that I'm up so early. I tend to write from one to six in the afternoon but there's been times I've gone back around ten and worked until two.
What is your favorite writing snack and/or drink?
I drink gallons of tea. Milk, no sugar. (Because I'm already sweet enough.) This is one of the reasons they drink so much tea in INTO THE BROKEN LANDS.
What is your most memorable travel experience?
Before I start, it's important to remember that I'd cracked my left ankle a week earlier. Because I was flying, the doctor put me an ankle corset instead of an air boot because there's no room for an air boot if you're flying economy.
Okay, so I'm on my way back to Toronto from a convention in Spokane WA where I was a GOH. I'm supposed to leave at 11 AM Monday morning, fly to Minneapolis, change planes and fly to Toronto, and be there in time to catch the 7:30 train home. When we get to the airport around nine, there's a loooooong line at the Delta counter. The flight has been cancelled. I go back, spend some time at the conchair's house, and we get me booked on a 4pm flight to Seattle and an overnight flight to Detroit and an early commuter flight to Toronto, getting me there in time to catch the 11:30 AM train home.
I catch the 4pm flight. I get to Seattle. There's a loooooong line at the Delta counter. The flight to Detroit has been cancelled. I call the Delta helpline and they get me on a midnight flight to Georgia, specifically Atlanta, where I'll catch a flight to Toronto at 9 and be able to catch the 1:30 train home. It's the last seat on the flight, and it's first class. There's more room to sleep but on a red eye, that's all first class means.
Now, a lot of people don't like the Atlanta airport but I do (my guitar likes it so much it once spent an extra four days there). I'm the first person to arrive at the departure gate but it soon starts to fill. At nine, a voice comes over the PA and says, "Attention passengers, the 9Am flight to Toronto will be delayed because we don't have a plane." As one, everybody waiting turns and looks out the window. At the plane. "Sorry, " says the voice, not sounding sorry at all, "we don't have a crew."
But eventually, I get to Toronto, onto the airport bus, and to the train station. If traffic is in our favour, I can catch the 3:30 train home. I enter the station and there's a looooong line at the counters. "This looks familiar," I say. VIA rail's entire computer system is down and they're having to do everything by hand.
I get the last seat on the 5:30 train.
I usually write while on the train, there's something about it that I find inspiring. I did not write while on this train.
Nor did I whack anyone with my cane. Although at this point, I was tempted...

LAR + Fernando Romero – Soumaya Museum
LAR + Fernando Romero, Mexico City, OMA
Built in order to host a collection of over 6200 objects of art – one of the most important in Latin America – Soumaya Museum is in itself a striking presence. Architect Fernando Romero, who did his apprenticeship at OMA, under Rem Koolhaas's guidance, chose to distance himself from the "naturalized" image of the museum-box, suggesting a unique structure, non-Euclidean, which seems to be governed by its own rules.
Appearing as an amorphous mass that rises directly from the ground and turnes around its axis in an effort to rise into the sky, the museum presents itself as a gigantic abstract sculpture, which changes its form depending on the angle from which it is seen . New building structure consists of a 28-column steel sinuous lines, each with a different shape and characterized by its own geometry. They were connected through a series of rings and diagonal beams, creating isometric figures. The facade was made of translucent concrete and aluminum hexagonal modules, materials that look beyond contemporary and stylish, providing strength and durability.
Within the Soumaya Museum, visitors can admire an impressive selection of paintings and sculptures, illustrating art history of Europe and South America since the 14th century to the contemporary period. Remarkably, the museum holds the largest collection of sculptor's Auguste Rodin works that can be accessed outside of France. Far from wanting the separation between work and periods of art, the interior highlights the exuberant and the heterogeneity of the collections. Thus, the interior was designed as a single exhibition space on six levels, where the passage from one area to another is done naturally, organically. Art diversity and versatility joins spaceplans, each level is another dimension appearing as "borrowed" from the fantastic.
The museum also has six underground levels, including four for parking and two for storage and restoration of works of art and office space for employees and some public functions – classrooms, a library, restaurant. Soumaya Museum promises to become both a landmark in the urban landscape of Mexico City, and an unique cultural destination in Latin America and the world.

Aboriginal (First Nations and Metis)
Piapot (1816-1908)
Chief Piapot.
Edmund Morris (Legislative Building Art Collection, The)
Piapot (Payepot) was born to a Cree mother and an Assiniboine father in 1816; shortly after his birth his parents died of smallpox. When he was a small boy, he and his grandmother were captured by a band of Sioux, with whom he lived for the next fourteen years until he was rescued by a Cree war party. In 1830 Piapot became chief. He would lead his people in the last major inter-tribal engagement between the Cree and the Blackfoot on the Oldman River in 1870. After this last battle Piapot made his home in the Qu'Appelle Valley. In 1874, when Treaty 4 was negotiated, Piapot was not present: he was away hunting, and as a result did not learn of the negotiation until after it had been signed. In 1875 he met with Treaty Commissioner William Christie, and after seeking guarantees that he would receive farm instructors, mills, more tools, and medical assistance, he signed an adhesion to Treaty 4. However many of the terms Piapot believed he had negotiated would not appear until Treaty 6 in 1876.
Piapot was part of a group of chiefs who wanted a large reservation surveyed for them in the Cypress Hills area. Canada, however, feared the concentration of a large Indian population in one area, and refused. As a result, Piapot was eventually forced to select a home in the Qu'Appelle Valley, where a reserve of fifty-four square miles was surveyed - well short of the 110 square miles his band was entitled to under the Treaty. Throughout the rest of his life Piapot continually challenged the Canadian government by holding ceremonies and by fighting to have Treaty rights recognized. He died on his reserve in 1908.

" I wanted to tell you that your amazing butter spreading knife saved my marriage! We used to have near-violent arguments: I wanted to leave the butter out to keep it soft but my wife wanted to keep it in the fridge to avoid it going rancid. Obviously she was wrong and I was right but that is neither here nor there now because we no longer have to choose! It even spreads butter on matzoh without cracking it."
Regards, a potentially happy customer.
" Bought this for my son's one year old ice cream party in addition to two other different scoops we already have. One was traditional spring loaded type and another like the ones you see in ice cream stores which needs a bowl of water. I figured with so many people coming I needed a good scoop. Well this scoop was the only one we used the whole time even though we had 10 flavors to chose from. It is truly amazing how the ice cream can be packed into a perfect ball within seconds. It looks great too (we got the white one) since it had these "air bubbles" that kids can see on the handle. It also felt very comfortable in my hand and I did not feel strained after the party. We are an ice cream loving family so we will be putting this scoop to good use year round and for entertaining. I hate writing reviews because I am busy with my toddler but I felt this product deserves my two seconds."
" I have carpal tunnel on both hands. Your ice cream scoop is the only one that allows me to scoop ice cream without any pain. Thank you for this wonderful tool."

The opening of Next Move exhibition saw thousands of visitors pouring into the Cairo International Convention Centre to get a glimpse of the major unveilings and to capitalise on attractive payment offers in the residential sector for the middle-income housing segment, running until Saturday.
Next Move Egypt features a 45-strong exhibitor list with more than 7500sqm of exhibition space.
Exhibitors compete each with other to provide offers, discounts, and flexible payment offers to clients.
Exhibitor Zahraa El Maadi Investment and Development will marketing Palm Zahraa apartment units in Zahraa El Maadi with a 10% down payment and 10-year instalment.
Amlak Misr exhibitor is showing its North Coast property Water Valley and is offering a 0% down payment and a 7-year instalment plan.
Al Saraya is launching its project Calma in Sahl Hasheesh at the show with a 10% down payment and 7-year instalment. The developer is also offering a 5% discount only during Next Move Egypt.
Diarna Real Estate is showcasing Fifth Square Compound in New Cairo, which includes furnished townhouses, apartments, and twin houses and is offered with a 5% down payment and an 8-year payment instalment.
Tom Rhodes, exhibition director at Next Move Egypt, said that today's opening reveals that property remains a number one priority for Egyptians.
Rhodes added that Egyptian homebuyers and investors understand that real estate can provide them with the security and high returns they require, with the least amount of risk and with confidence returning to the market.
"I expect to see an even bigger turnout over the next two days," Rhodes noted.


UPDATED, 10:14 AM: Well, that didn't take long. A day after the Broadcast Film Critics Association polled its members about whether to add Star Wars: The Force Awakens to the Best Picture nominees for its Critics' Choice Awards, the answer is yes. "While making an amendment to the Critics' Choice Awards nominations is highly unusual, having an 11th Best Picture nominee is not unprecedented," the group said today. "In 2000, Cast Away was similarly screened too late for normal consideration and the BFCA included it among 11 Best Picture nominees." Details are in our previous post below.
Oscars: Can Last-Minute Entrance Of 'Star Wars: The Force Awakens' Shake Up Best Picture Race?
The film was left off the group's nominations list entirely because its members had not seen it. Usually, BFCA members see every movie early on, because it includes journalists who attend junkets, where many films get their first screenings. But Disney was adamant about not screening The Force Awakens for anyone until Monday's premiere in Hollywood. So earlier that day, the BFCA went ahead with its scheduled nominations announcement, without its members having seen the juggernaut J.J. Abrams film.
By contrast, the AFI usually unveils its list of the year's 10 best films around the time the Golden Globes and SAG Awards reveal their nominees. But the group this year postponed its announcement until two days after the Force Awakens premiere, and the new Star Wars pic ended up making the list.
The BFCA's email only specifies considering The Force Awakens for its Best Picture nominations, but it is one of the rare critics' groups that also doles out awards in technical categories such as cinematography, visual effects, even hair and makeup. No word on whether the new Disney film also will be eligible for those Critics' Choice Awards.
Another reason the BCFA might be reconsidering its Star Wars strategy: The 21st annual Critics' Choice Awards will air live January 17 on A&E, Lifetime and LMN. No doubt a Best Picture nom for The Force Awakens could boost viewer interest in the telecast.
In the wake of an unprecedented cry out from you – the BFCA Membership – the Board of Directors has decided to poll the membership on Monday to determine whether we should add "Star Wars: The Force Awakens" to our list of Critics' Choice Award nominees for Best Picture.
The question will be: If you had seen "The Force Awakens" before casting your Critics' Choice Awards ballot, would you have included it in your five choices for Best Picture?
As you know, the studio chose not to screen the film for awards voters in advance of its premiere on Monday. However, our purpose in presenting the Critics' Choice Awards is to celebrate the finest cinematic achievements of the year. It appears that many members believe "The Force Awakens" deserves to be included.
In this unique situation, we think this is the best way to proceed.


First off, what is malt?
Malt is made from a grain that has been soaked, germinated (sprouted) then dried. It can be derived from various grains such as wheat, corn or rice; however, whole-grain barley is most commonly used.
Altering the length of time and the temperature of the drying process produces an extensive variety of barley malts of many different flavors and colors. Brewer's malts contain high levels of active enzymes, starches and sugars that are necessary in the fermentation process. Other types of barley malts have lower levels of enzymes and sugars available for fermentation so therefore are more often used as flavoring agents.
What is Barley Malt Extract and Barley Malt Syrup?
Barley malt can be further processed into barley malt extract (also known as barley malt syrup). Several steps are involved in the production of barley malt extract/syrup. A mixture of malted barley and water is steeped, mashed then filtered. Next, through evaporation excess water is removed and a sweet, viscous liquid comprising approximately 75-80% solids remains.
What is Barley Malt Flavoring?
Malt flavoring can be made from barley malt extract/syrup or from a combination of barley malt extract/syrup and corn syrup.
Is there gluten in malt?
When malt is derived from barley it contains gluten. Tested gluten levels vary, but barley malt and its derivatives are off limits for those with celiac disease or non-celiac gluten sensitivity.
Why do manufacturers use barley malt?
Barley malt and its derivatives have many desirable properties, including increasing the fermentation rate in beer and rise of dough; adding subtle, caramelly sweetness; increasing fiber and nutritional properties; improving browning; and masking bitter flavors.
Where is barley malt found?
There are a few obvious sources of barley malt and its derivatives (barley malt extract/syrup and barley malt flavoring). If you run into a product that declares itself malted, such as malt vinegar or a malted milkshake, your alarm bells should go off. Here "malt" means malted barley and thus gluten.
Most beers are made from malted barley. Since beer is only fermented and does not undergo the distillation process, it contains varying levels of gluten. Although scotch whiskey also is made from malted barley, it undergoes distillation which removes all gluten proteins rendering the final product gluten free.
But what do foods like Rice Krispies, Corn Flakes, and Lindor chocolate truffles have in common? You might not know it until you check the label, but, surprisingly, they all include a form of barley malt.
In fact, barley malt is an unexpectedly common ingredient in many cereals, granolas, baked goods, and beverages. People who must avoid gluten are frequently disappointed to find that breakfast cereals based on rice, corn or other gluten-free grains often give up their otherwise GF status with the addition of barley malt extract or barley malt flavoring.
Chocolate is another product where you may find barley malt extract when you'd only be expecting cocoa, sugar and vanilla. Even herbal teas, which are typically just herbs as advertised, will sometimes contain roasted barley or barley malt extract.
Can a product be labeled gluten free if it contains barley malt?
The short answer is NO! There have been cases of U.S. manufacturers labeling products "gluten free" based on testing when they include gluten-containing ingredients such as barley malt. Dietitian Tricia Thompson, RD, founder of Gluten Free Watchdog points out that even if the finished product tests less than the 20 ppm gluten, it cannot be labeled "gluten free" if it is sourced from gluten-containing ingredients that haven't been processed to remove the gluten. Barley malt is one example of an ingredient that has NOT been processed to remove gluten.
Because of confusion and errors, even if a product is labeled gluten free, I always advise reading the label. Use caution if you find a suspect ingredient. When in doubt, contact the manufacturer and, if you don't get a clear answer, don't eat their product.
Over the coming months, I'll be sharing information about many ingredients I'm commonly asked about including starches, maltodextrin, spices, flavorings, syrups, extracts, alcohol and more. If you have an ingredient question, please ask me on Facebook — your question could help hundreds of others with the same concern!
Where can I find more info about malt as an ingredient?
If you're interested in the exact definitions of malt-based ingredients, you can find those in the following U.S. and Canadian regulations.
Malt isn't the only stealth ingredient to threaten a gluten-free diet. For more great information, check out Shelley's national best-seller: Gluten Free: The Definitive Resource Guide.

Gas pipeline: DEP decision due on $1B proposal
NJ environmental officials are due to decide Wednesday on several permits for the proposed Northeast Supply Enhancement pipeline.
Gas pipeline: DEP decision due on $1B proposal NJ environmental officials are due to decide Wednesday on several permits for the proposed Northeast Supply Enhancement pipeline. Check out this story on app.com: https://www.app.com/story/news/local/new-jersey/2019/06/04/gas-pipeline-dep-decision-due-proposal/39545001/
Wayne Parry, ASSOCIATED PRESS Published 7:12 p.m. ET June 4, 2019 | Updated 7:21 p.m. ET June 4, 2019
MIDDLETOWN – A proposal for a nearly $1 billion pipeline that would carry natural gas from Pennsylvania's shale fields through New Jersey, a bay and the ocean en route to supplying New York City and Long Island faces some key hurdles this week.
New Jersey environmental officials are due to decide today on several permits for the proposed Northeast Supply Enhancement pipeline. Watch the video above about a public hearing in Toms River used to gather comments on a proposed New Jersey Natural Gas Southern Reliability Link pipeline.
This is the latest pipeline project to stir emotions in the long-running jobs-versus-the environment debate. Opponents hope a denial will stop the project – even though it survived a similar rejection last month in New York and remains under consideration there.
RELATED: Activists still battling Pinelands pipeline even as work begins
Williams Cos., the Oklahoma firm planning to spend $926 million on the project, says it is needed to ensure adequate heating and energy supplies to New York City and Long Island, and that it can be built safely with minimal environmental disruption.
Environmental groups and other opponents say the project would stir up tons of highly polluted sediment and reverse decades of hard-won environmental improvements in Raritan Bay, which has been struggling with pollution.

"It could kill the bay," said Rich Isakson, president of the Belford Seafood Cooperative, a group of Raritan Bay fishermen. "Once you dig up all that stuff, it could take 40 years to settle down again. That's prime fishing and crabbing grounds they're going right through."
The company counters that its construction method would retain "nearly all" of the sediment loosed during the pipe-laying in a trench, and that remaining sediments would stay in the lower half of the water column.
Williams and its customer, the National Grid utility, say the pipeline is needed in order to get the gas to customers. The utility says without the project, it may have to declare a moratorium on gas customer hookups. It is still taking applications from potential new customers but will not process them until after the project is approved, spokeswoman Wendy Ladd said.
EARLIER: Pinelands pipeline in doubt after B.L. England owner quits natural gas plan
"The existing pipeline system currently operates at maximum capacity and is unable to accommodate demand growth driven by fuel oil to natural gas conversions, as well as new development," Williams spokesman Chris Stockton said.
Opponents say the project would lead to the burning of more fossil fuels, thus contributing to climate change. They also cite a study by 350.org, an anti-fossil fuel group, that claims the demand for natural gas in New York and Long Island is far less than what Williams asserts. The company says part of the demand is from conversions of customers from oil to natural gas.
Some objectors see an ulterior motive in the pipeline project: laying the groundwork for an offshore liquefied natural gas terminal that has repeatedly been rejected in the region on safety and environmental grounds, among others. Such a facility would allow natural gas to be loaded onto ships at sea and exported to other countries.
"This is a Trojan horse," said Cindy Zipf, executive director of Clean Ocean Action, a New Jersey coastal environmental group. "The real money here is to have an LNG terminal to send that gas to Europe. The billions of dollars that would be possible by building an export facility would just be too enticing."
Other environmental and fishing groups voiced similar suspicions about a liquefied natural gas terminal eventually being added to the project. Williams says it has no such plans, emphasizing that regulators are evaluating the plan solely for its stated purpose of bringing gas to New York and Long Island.
"There is zero evidence to support the false narrative that this proposal is somehow tied to natural gas exports," Stockton said. "This pipe will be installed and operated safely, just like the other more than 230 miles of existing pipe and cable that currently safely operate in Raritan Bay."
RELATED: 5 things to know about proposed Raritan Bay pipeline
The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission approved the project on May 3. Today, the state Department of Environmental Protection is to decide on two state permits, one for waterfront development and another for wetlands work. A decision on a separate water quality certification is due June 20.
The agency would not speculate on whether a rejection on any of these permits would be enough to permanently halt the project.
Last month, New York environmental officials rejected the application, saying it violated water quality standards. But the state made its decision "without prejudice," allowing Williams to reapply, which it did almost immediately.
Jeff Tittel, director of the New Jersey Sierra Club, predicted that even a Department of Environmental decision against the company this week would not permanently halt the proposal.
Pinelands pipeline under protest
Taylor McFarland of NJ Sierra Club holds a sign in protest of the pipeline.

We think that it is appropriate on this very rainy day in PA, for us to share a little bit of Florida sunshine with you all! We had the excitement and honor of capturing Joy & Ryan's engagement photos in Bradenton, FL!! Joy & Ryan are absolutely the best, and I'm positive that everyone that knows them, would say that their joy and enthusiasm for life and each other is contagious!
When we began planning for Joy & Ryan's engagement photo session, we didn't really have Florida on the radar, but as we discussed what type of location they'd be interested, and Joy mentioned that her family would be taking a trip to Florida this spring, the pieces just kind of started to fall into place. It's always been a dream of mine to shoot in Florida, my family went there on vacation all throughout out my growing up years, and it just seemed SO right to capture photos of this lovely couple down there.
Emerson Point Preserve was an amazing place to shoot at! It was a mix of wooded trails, lots of Spanish moss (*sigh*), and plenty of rocky beach trails, every bit of this location seems to "scream" Joy & Ryan, as it was such a fun mix of beauty and adventure! We were excited as well since we only stumbled upon this location a few days before Joy & Ryan's engagement photo session (thank you Google!).
Joy & Ryan, you all are fantastic, and we can't wait for your wedding, coming soon! Thank you for going along with our wild ideas! We love how you two have such a deep love and respect for each other, and admire your joy and laughter together. Many Blessings, as you prepare for this next season!

Ship Happens on Samurai Jack
Jack and Ashi's journey towards the grand finale continues and adds a new layer to their relationship. The result is strange, to put it mildly.
Let's address the elephant in the room first. Yes, this episode introduces romantic tension between Jack and Ashi, and brings it all the way to a kiss. In the span of twenty minutes. It packs the whole thing with awkwardness and fumbling, which thankfully make way to fighting side by side later. And, to address the other elephant in the room… Jack is seventy years old at the bare minimum. Even if he does have the body of someone in his late twenties or early thirties. Despite Jack's lack of physical aging, it still feels strange, at the very least.
Let's get to the recap. After escaping rather a rather odd pack of assailants — tigers with letters on their clothes — Jack and Ashi wander the desert on foot. A sandstorm catches them, and they seek shelter in the wreck of a spaceship, which we see fall to Earth in the beginning.
What follows resembles the old episodes of Samurai Jack quite a bit, although of course Jack was alone most of the time back then. The ship is stalked by a creature that had been held there, a mass of leech-like worms. It regenerates constantly, and is thus virtually indestructible.
Just casually sucking poison out of your friends leg. (Which doesn't actually work.)
As Jack and Ashi try to evade it and destroy it, we're mercifully spared their romantic tension. At first. Unfortunately, it eventually rears its head again. The leeches just so happen to destroy Ashi's clothes. Jack is extremely flustered by her nudity, while she sees no problem with it. Yep, it's the old, tired "hot girl with no nudity taboo" thing again. Michał expected better of Samurai Jack. Cameron's take was that the joke was actually funny, only because he felt it was at the expense of Jack's embarrassment (rather than her state of undress) and executed well. Though he sees why Michal was annoyed by it. And to be fair Jack got down into his undies too, so equal opportunity nudity?
Jack eventually manages to activate a weapon that had been designed specifically to destroy the monster, and it does its job. But not before the two are entirely covered in the leeches. After the weapon destroys them, they're exhausted and covered in goo. Then they make out, as you do. Yes, it's about as awkward as you'd think.
Romance aside, the return to the old seasons' style feels out of place. This isn't old Jack anymore, neither the show nor the character are the same. Turning it back to the old atmosphere, and Jack's old personality and appearance, feels like it disregards the earlier developments. It's like all the turmoil and trauma he's been through hasn't been resolved so much as it's vanished entirely. Watching this episode, it's like Jack's trauma, depression and introspection had never happened. He's back to being the heroic, but awkward and stiff guy we saw in the older seasons.
Even if it didn't erase an otherwise poignant, visceral portrayal of Jack's inner struggle, do we want to see old Jack here? Earlier, it felt like part of the point was how neither he nor the show are like they used to be. And that was fine, because it was the final stretch of his story. The grand resolution. This episode feels very at odds with that. If it weren't for Ashi and the romance, it would have fit perfectly in an older season.
So, About That Ship
So, that happened. Jashi is confirmed. We have very mixed feelings on this. Very mixed feelings on this pair. On the one hand, they have similar upbringings, they are both complete dorks with each other, and are now living in world's alien to them.
On the other hand the relationship feels slightly forced, as if Ashi is now a compulsory love interest. As if this relationship is cliched and bad for her character. In addition there is the age issue. Ashi seems to be anywhere from mid-teens to mid-20s, and Jack is a functional immortal being now. So, it's problematic…I think???
Cameron's View
I am mixed. I think this relationship is interesting to think about given their similar backgrounds. Weirdly enough, I liked watching it and the episode, but I really don't know how I feel about it now. With both of my hands I hate and love it. Like I know I shouldn't like it, but I feel like I like it. This is the feeling Kylie must have on the James Bond films. This ship is…………..really something………
Michal's View
This is a second episode of Jack in a row that I didn't like. Last time, it was because I felt it was too quick, too neat, and too ignorant of Jack's earlier development. Now, all of it still applies, but there's also the romance. It's really awkward, and mildly creepy because of the age difference. Which is actually another way in which it ignores the fact that Jack isn't who he was. The way he acts around Ashi would be natural for his character in the old seasons. But that's not who he is anymore. We said it before. He's at least seventy years old, even if he hasn't physically aged. After all they showed us earlier, now they hit the reset button on that?
I would really rather have seen them in a mentor/student relationship. Or just friends, kicking ass and fighting Aku together. Why is it that when a female character enters the story, she has to become the male protagonist's girlfriend?

"That wasn't a bad showing considering this was our first appearance at regionals as a team since 2011," Burleson coach Ted Tomchesson said.

Researchers from Monash's Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology have determined the structure of the protein JAK2 kinase, a discovery with huge implications for the design and development of cancer drugs.
NHMRC Industry Research Fellow Dr Isabelle Lucet, from Monash's Protein Crystallography Unit headed by Dr Jamie Rossjohn, was part of the team that determined the structure.
"JAK2 kinase was the driving force for many cancers and cardiovascular disorders," she said. The research, partly funded by a $1.2 million Australian Research Council Linkage Grant, was a joint project between drug development company Cytopia Limited and the Protein Crystallography Unit.
The JAK kinases, which were first discovered by Cytopia's chief scientific officer Dr Andrew Wilks, are a well-validated drug target.Dr Lucet said the discovery of JAK2 kinase's structure had allowed an internationally competitive structure-based drug design on JAK kinase inhibitors to begin. "This will help the development of drugs for cancer and other disorders by assisting with the design of specific molecules."
She said the high expertise of the Monash research team, combined with the drug discovery capability of Cytopia, would undoubtedly enable more selective drug targets to be developed against diseases where the JAK kinases play a pivotal role.
Dr Lucet said the discovery would allow the rapid growth of a portfolio of phase I therapeutics. Details on the structure of JAK2 kinase will be published in an upcoming issue of Blood, the Journal of the American Society of Hematology.
