How does an airbag work?
An airbag is a safety mechanism that is fit in every car to safeguard the passengers during crash. Accidents that happen today are fatal without airbags. An airbag is made up of flexible fabric cushion or envelope that inflates very quickly during collision. Airbags are fit in a variety of places according to customer's convenience. In other words airbags can be called as soft pillows to land on when vehicles crash.
The first airbag was designed by Allen Breed in 1968. Ford was the first company to introduce airbags in cars by 1971. Later General Motors introduced them into Chevrolet cars. Cadillac also brought airbags into their system soon. All the introductions made airbag an optional attachment until 1988 when Chrysler made it as a standard equipment.
When a car crashes, the restraint system is supposed to stop the occupant from moving further. This requires enormous force to hold the person in place in a very short span of time. If the driver moves further, he/she results hitting the steering wheel causing major injury. The main aim of airbag is to prevent this quickly.
Airbags itself form an integral part of the system. It is made up of nylon fabric and it is folded and kept inside the dashboard of the car.
Inflator is an important component produces gas to inflate the airbags. This part contains a mixture of sodium azide, potassium nitrate and silicon-dioxide. During crash, these react to produce hot nitrogen gas which deploys airbags from its shell.
Sensor is used to trigger the reaction in the inflator. They obtain their data from the vehicle accelerometers.
Airbag control unit contains a number if sensors like pressure sensor, impact sensor, accelerometers which are continuously monitored.These detect the crash at any instant. When the car detects a crash, then these sensors send signal to inflators in about 15 milliseconds depending upon the severity of crash.
When airbag has to be deflated, sodium azide and potassium nitrate react in a series of steps to produce nitrogen gas. This nitrogen gas inflates airbags at 250 mph. This action is timed to occur exactly in 25 milliseconds after the crash. The inflation continues for another 20 milliseconds. This is exactly timed with the occupant's landing on airbag. This airbag remains inflated for about 60 milliseconds and then it begins to deflate after the passenger is pushed away. The deflation takes place for another 30 milliseconds.
Driver Airbags: Safeguards the driver from frontal impact. It mainly protects the driver's face from hitting the rigid steering wheel during collision. These are placed inside the steering wheel.
Knee Airbags: Protects the knee during impact. This airbag is also present in the passenger dashboard section.
Side Airbags: Safeguards passenger from side collision. This airbag is present along the side railings of the car.
Curtain Airbags: Present on the top of the car. It protects occupants during a car roll over and prevents brain injury at a larger scale.
Pedestrian Airbags: These airbags are protects the pedestrians when they are hit by cars.
Center Airbags: Avoids side collision of passengers and are present mostly in the rear seats.
Airbags are effective only when seat belts are used. Seat belts restrict the movement of the occupant during crash. It holds him the person from moving further. When seat belts are not used, inflation of airbags can push the person away leading to further injuries.
During collision, seat belts pull the occupant towards the seat, thus perfect cushioning is provided by airbags. On the other hand, if seat belt is not present, the passenger tends to move further into the airbag without any pulling force. The image depicts this phenomena.

PETALING JAYA: Just hours before T. Nhaveen died on Thursday, his idol, Oscar-winning composer A.R. Rahman sent him a message on Twitter praying for his recovery.
"Dear Nhaveen, prayers & love for a speedy recovery. Let all acts of savagery end & people come to senses. Peace!" the Indian Grammy Award winner said in a tweet that was accompanied by a screenshot of a news item on the battered teenager.
Nhaveen, 18, died at the Penang Hospital at 5.31pm Thursday after being savagely beaten.
He was found unconscious at around midnight last Saturday at a field in Jalan Kaki Bukit in Bukit Gelugor.
Nhaveen, who was also sodomised and burnt on his back, suffered internal bleeding in his head and abdomen.
According to a news report, Nhaveen had dreamt of becoming a composer like Rahman and was set to study music composing at a college in Kuala Lumpur.


A creative, exploratory, mystery, and short puzzle game.
Got stuck on a corner in the Air and Fuel generation room, but I had fun before then. I love the art style, and the art in general. Game mechanics are simple to figure out.
EDIT: Ah, it's randomized. The room in question would be the one to the left of spawn. I got stuck on the left side corner at the end of where the hallway enters the room.
Don't forget to add your project to the GDU community project list in Discord once it's published. Use !addproject in #botspam. 7 Questions in the process. This helps keep all the games that each group made in one place. Even if you're not from GDU, feel free to use it! Use the tags "GDU" or "KIN" when submitting dev names to differentiate yourself.
1) The change of UI control isn't nice. You switch from "Press Enter" to get past the intro, to mouse click on the main menu, and then back again in-game. You want these to remain the same for fluidity.
2) The first time I tried playing, I had no idea what I was supposed to do after listening to the tape. I didn't see the tip at the top of the screen. I'd recommend making it apparent by adding a shadow or making it a different color.
4) I think you did the same thing that I did with my first game: You made it harder as you made the game, not realizing you were just getting better at it. You should knock down the timing of the "killers", especially since this is the first boss.
6) You should give the player an object to challenge. What I mean is create a visual for the enemy, or change the script so that the player has something to fight rather than just rhythm. One way to do this is to put the enemy's sprite in the background, and draw it to look like the enemy is somehow controlling what's happening.
Really good. Highly recommend turning this into a mobile game.
Collisions don't work after I touch one (And safely move it out of the way). Might want to fix this before the end of the Jam.
The First ScoreSpace Game Jam! community · Replied to Khaalid B. in What leaderboard systems are you using?
Google sheets has an open source API. Sending and receiving data is as simple as under 10 lines of code from it. It's available for Python, JS, and multiple other languages. Since I know how to do it in Python, and it's not available in the language I usually code in, I'd have to see if I could run a Python file with the new score information and have the sheet update accordingly.
The First ScoreSpace Game Jam! community · Posted in What leaderboard systems are you using?
If I join, I might actually use Google Sheets. I built a project that used it extensively recently. I would have to see if I could build a compatible system for the engine I use first.
I really appreciate you slipping in last minute to leave me a rating. Thank you! Pretty happy with the scores I got.
Thanks so much for coming back to it!
Thanks for the feedback! Definitely learned that I need to work on my gameplay and instructions from this Jam.
Haha, I was kidding. There is the instruction screen which tells you about the signals, but I think some of the sounds in the game get mistaken for the "tells" that signal when to press the space key.
Do I have to tell players how to do everything? :P I appreciate you leaving a comment even though you couldn't finish it. There is a "thud" that I'm told kinda blends in with the background. Once you lock onto it though, you can nail the timing. Sorry about that! I'll have to focus on this more next time I join a jam!
HaHA! I beat the system! Really cool game. FYI, I'm sure you noticed, but just in case: collisions on the enemies would sometimes just not work unless I moved.
Sure! I just want to make sure everyone gets some feedback on their games. Everyone invested at least a little bit of their weekend to this, so I want to make it worth it to them.
Well done. I love the body part loss mechanic. Only problem would be that it wasn't incredibly clear that you had to move off-screen to begin the game.
Instead of rating another game that already has a couple, or several ratings, check out the unrated section which can be accessed on the entries page with the message, "Help rate games that have few ratings: Games in need of ratings"
Go grandpa go! I loved everything about this game. The only nuance I noticed is the control inconsistency between life and ghost form.
Things I learned about myself: My curse has an addiction to standing on lava, I can attack those who stand behind me, and I love cake. 10/10. Side note: The idle music is beautiful.
"It took you 25 seconds to escape." Okay! Pretty sure it was more like 50-60 seconds, but I'll take it :D. The monster is horrifying, but thankfully this is one horror game where I can run faster than the monster. Great job!
I'm addicted to the sound FX myself :P. Thanks for the feedback!
Thanks! Much appreciated. You had it right, but you have to start with the generator which is directly to the east of the spawn point. All the other OI's become accessible afterwards. I should have described this somewhere.
"C--Co-C-c-Coding your own ga-games is easier than you think!"
My life is just stuck in a corner, being mocked by the spinning spikes at every turn.
My first 5 deaths were spent waiting for another platform, thinking the clouds were just clouds. I had no idea you could ride them :P. Awesome music, and fits the theme!
Thank you guys for playing! Let me know what you guys think of it! I'd really love to hear what you have to say. This was kind of an experimental project for me. DEV NOTE: Start with the generator which is directly to the east (right) of the spawn point.
If you wanted to link to dropbox or something, I'd be willing to play and rate your fixed version. It seems to crash for everyone, including me. Link it here so everyone can play.

I'm Hello.Coder, and I recently developed a game in 72hrs for Ludum Dare 41. It's called OPERATOR. You can find the LD page here, but that's just the bare bones of what I actually wanted to accomplish in the first place. I've begun work on the Extended Version, which I plan to put a lot more into before calling it "complete".

Let me know what you think :).
Good! When you have another update, let us know.
Got a notification that we should submit concepts and prototypes soon. How soon would that be? Basically I'm wondering if I have another few days to finish a workable/more dense concept.
1. What's your name? Where you from?
2. What's your reason to be here?
To follow a dream of mine.
R6 Siege, Factorio, Frozen Synapse, Battlefield 4, Soccer Physics, etc.
Defold, however it is difficult to use as I have little prior programming experience. No tools yet.
I have no schooling in programming, and everything I've learned is from tips and explanations from more experienced people, yet I am here. I believe I can make something different because I have the motivation to follow my dream. Don't give up.

Every hero doesn't do this great big hero thing. They do the simple thing over and over... and they stick to it.
There are three things, to my account, that I need each day. One of them is something to look up to, another is something to look forward to, and another is someone to chase.


Organising house moves can be a stressful enough process, but at least it's fairly straightforward if you are moving an entire house or flat. In that case, you can generally get a local company around to assess how much furniture you have, estimate how many packing boxes will be needed to hold all your other belongings, and provide you with a quote for the job.
Things get slightly trickier when you're either moving a single room on its own or perhaps need to get a small amount of furniture into or out of storage. These sorts of removals are actually far more common than full house moves, as students move in and out of halls several times a year, house-sharing becomes ever more popular and people are getting more and more used to using storage facilities between moves.
Even though demand for these so-called part load removals is high, it can be surprisingly difficult to find a company willing to carry out part load transport at a reasonable rate. This is because it often involves driving a half-empty van up and down the country to carry out the job if you don't have enough items to fill up their vehicle completely. This constitutes an opportunity-cost for the transport provider, and they will often pass that cost on to you, charging you the full rate even if you only have a part-load.
The chances are, even if you find a transport company offering part load delivery, you will have to wait a rather long time before they can either pick up or deliver your items, because they will be waiting to group your part-load with other consignments in order to undertake the journey with a full van.
Especially if you're planning a delivery or move to somewhere a little out of the way, it could take quite a while for the company you've chosen to find another consignment along the same route.
Luckily, there is an alternative to phoning several companies and hope you strike lucky in finding one that already has your specific route planned with just enough space left for your stuff.
Shiply allows you to list your part load delivery online in order to get several quotes back from transport companies who already have a similar route planned. Thousands of transport providers are registered on Shiply, so your chances of finding a match at a great price are high. Not only that, but it also saves you the hassle of phoning around lots of companies to get several quotes.
2.How do I Pick the Right Courier?
When using Shiply and communicating with transport providers in general, the most important thing to bear in mind is to describe the dimensions of your shipment accurately and in as much detail as possible.
This is especially relevant when organising part load removals, as the transport providers will be looking to fill up their vehicles as close to capacity as possible. Letting them know the exact dimensions of your load will help them to provide you with the best value quotes possible.
Being flexible on your pickup and delivery dates will also help you find the best-value part load transport service. Even if you have a certain date in mind, you may well be surprised how much you could save by being willing to put it back or forward by just a couple of days – the money you could save might outweigh the inconvenience of having to change other plans.
You might be surprised to learn that you can even call on a part load delivery service to get items delivered to you that you buy online. Items that are listed on eBay as for local collection only, for example, can be a pain to go and collect, especially if the seller lives quite far away from where you would like the item to end up. Even one item of furniture can qualify for part load transport, so it's well worth checking out how much you could save on Shiply compared to conventional courier costs for these sorts of items.
Once you've started to receive quotes from transport providers for getting your part load from A to B, you'll be able to check the profiles of the competing providers to compare how they measure up in terms of insurance offered and feedback rating. All transport providers on Shiply are rated by other users, so you can see how satisfied others have been with the service they provide.
Once you've consulted the profiles of all the transport providers offering to carry out your part load removal and feel ready to make a decision, you can accept a quote and get on with organising your part load transport.
The first thing to determine is whether the transport provider you've chosen is happy to assist with the packing and loading of your items. If this has not been included in the price, then you might want to rope in a few friends to help you with this, depending on the size of your part load.
Taking the time to package your items properly will pay off, as this helps to prevent any damage or scratches during transit. Taking photos of the items to be shipped is always a good idea, as they will provide a point of comparison at the other end.
In the unlikely event that any of your objects do sustain some damage, then be sure to report this to the driver immediately on delivery. If you have pictures proving that any scuffs or scratches were sustained during transit, this will assist with any insurance claims.
Once your part load removal has been completed, don't forget to leave feedback for your transport provider. This helps other users to evaluate the level of service they provide, and your transport provider will be grateful for it as it is an important factor in establishing their reputation in the marketplace.

Here in the UK, they only like to transfer single embryos, and there's a huge campaign about it and the risks of multiple pregnancy. I don't have any advice, though, but wishing you lots of luck and baby dust for your first IVF!
Wishing you lots of luck and baby dust this cycle! While I haven't gone through IVF personally, my sister did do IVF four years ago when she was 31 and diagnosed with unexplained fertility. She transferred two embryos and ended up with triplets. For your first IVF cycle, I would recommend transferring one embryo if you have the reasonable expectation that you will be financially able to do another cycle should this one fail. If not, transfer two. Good luck!

During the Winter Solstice, people in the Northern Hemisphere have long celebrated the return of longer daylight hours and warmth to their part of the planet. Here are some simple things you can do during this season to prepare yourself for the New Year.
It's tempting to be bitter or resentful if things haven't gone as well as you expected. And the last couple of years have been a big challenge for many. Whatever your situation or circumstance, you have things for which you can be grateful. Make a conscious effort to express gratitude throughout the day, every day. Perhaps consider holding a regular ritual for your family or yourself to remember all the good life has to offer (not just on Thanksgiving).
Remember that we live on a tiny planet in an enormous universe and view your life from that perspective. People often get caught up in the machinations of their daily lives: the emergencies, celebrations, routine duties, routine and not-so-routine upsets, firedrills and seeming miracles.
Think about how your daily actions are creating a future for yourself and the rest of Earth's inhabitants.
Remember the past. Think about your ancestors whose lives paved the way for yours.
I stumbled across this quote by Doug Lennick in my Twitter stream today, "Life challenges us to make our path perfect, not to find the perfect path".
Do what you can daily to make your path perfect and smooth the paths for others.
Giving to others opens the door for more good to come to you. You've heard the phrase, "The more you give, the more you receive". Give what you can, whether it's a quarter or dollar in the Salvation Army donation basket or a hundred or more. Give some and then give some more. Tithe to people or organizations that inspire you. Send things overseas. People in developing nations would treasure the stuff we throw away.
Clutter traps your energy and keeps you constrained. Give away items you've been holding on to 'just in case' for more than a few years. Unless they're very valuable and irreplaceable, get rid of them. Toss unnecessary files, recycle or shred paper documents you no longer need. Give things to charity. Place items in resale or consignment shops.
To support you in this particular tactic, join other like-minded people in a "Release and Renew Day". On Wednesday, December 29 I'm hosting an 'all-day' (not really; just 3 short calls interspersed throughout the day) virtual event designed to inspire, motivate and encourage your efforts. Get the details here and join us.
Finally, once you've cleared your space, allow yourself to dream big for the next phase of your life. Be clear. Be specific. Be visceral. Claim your future. Know that it's yours.
These 5 ideas will help brighten your days even further and launch you powerfully into the New Year.
I have sent your link to my Best female friend in the world. She is seeking assistance in reaching new horizons as am I. Soon I will send you some links about my recent enterprises. But for now, it's about Sherri.
If she likes what she sees, feel free to suggest your friend grab a free consultation with me at www.IWantMoreClientsNow.com/PrivateSession.htm or www.EmeraldHarvest.com/PrivateSession.htm (if she is trying to move up the corporate ladder).

Cooper must lead the Lightning to a Game 2 win.
• The Lightning's star goaltender Andrei Vasilevskiy was victimized four times in that 4-3 Game 1 loss. But his teammates don't blame him, writes Mari Faiello as special teams and defense let him down. That can't happen again in tonight's Game 2.

• The winds of Hurricane Michael might have uncovered another clandestine burial ground on the campus of Florida's oldest and most infamous reform school, the Dozier School for Boys in Marianna, where boys were neglected, died and disappeared. Ben Montgomery writes about the discovery of 27 "anomalies" that could be possible graves.

• Leonora LaPeter Anton writes about the latest battle to rewrite Florida's alimony laws, as the first wives who depend on monthly checks fight their husbands and their second wives, who want to permanent alimony.
• A pair of seemingly popular bills have been flying through the Florida Legislature, quietly passing through committees and likely headed to their respective chamber floors. On its face, the combined effort looks like good news for Floridians: It aims to strengthen the electric grid and minimize damage from hurricanes and tropical storms. But Samantha Gross reports that the bills include plans to bring power lines underground, an expensive process that would allow investor-owned utilities to profit from capital improvements — charges that will show up on customers' bills.
• Has Tampa ever had a mayor's race like this one? Nope, writes columnist Joe Henderson, not with philanthropist David Straz using his fortune to try to buy the office nad convince voters that former police chief Jane Castor's election will mean the end of civilization, or something like that.
• The last TV debate took place Thursday night and David Straz continued to attack former police chief Jane Castor over the department's crime stats. "He has no idea what he's talking about," Castor said. Charlie Frago writes about the last debate and the problem with Straz's line of attack.
• Democrats in the Senate have an agreement with the Republican majority to at least consider not making all teachers eligible to have guns in the classroom, according to Sen. Perry Thurston, Jr.
• Disney Plus will roll out in the U.S. on November 12 at a price of $6.99 per month, or $69.99 per year. That's well below the $13 monthly fee Netflix charges for its most popular streaming plan.
• An uptick in foreign buyers has Tampa Bay bucking a trend of declining investment in Florida from overseas. Broker Alex Jansen attributes the gain in large part to "the ease of access'' through Tampa International Airport.

Why are so many men holding fish in their profile pictures? Can we ever really get to know anyone online?
• What's behind the Rays' fast 10-3 start that has propelled them to the top of the American League East? Marc Topkin writes that it goes back to Tampa Bay's unpopular-at-the-time decision to transition to a core of young players and the accompanying flexibility. Everyone groaned as Evan Longoria and a host of veterans were all moved in the housecleanings of the past two seasons — but it worked, Topkins writes.
• Tampa Bay lost its third straight playoff series opener on Wednesday. But history shows this loss is even greater cause for concern. They are still the No. 1 seed. And they still have plenty of time.
• The Lightning passed on Seth Jones in the 2013 NHL Draft, but the 24-year-old is perfectly fine with where he's landed as a leader of a playoff team in Columbus. The 6-foot-4 blue liner is a big reason — both literally and figuratively — why Columbus believes it can upset the Lightning in the first round of the Stanley Cup playoffs.
• The Chris Godwin era looks like it's about to arrive. Godwin's role is expected to increase after the Bucs traded DeSean Jackson to the Eagles and Adam Humphries signed with the Titans., writes Rick Strou. New Bucs coach Bruce Arians said he expects Godwin will "be close to a 100-catch guy" this upcoming season. Did you read that, fantasy owners?
• Last season, Bucs defensive star Gerald McCoy arrived to training camp last season in a custom-built, Batman-themed Rolls Royce. But now, Rick Stroud reports, the defensive tackle is suing a different custom car builder for not delivering a vehicle as promised in 2015.

For major depression, this supplement succeeds where drugs fail
Mild depression can be successfully treated with alternative therapies such as St. John's Wort and folic acid.
But what about major depression? For a condition like that, you're going to have to forget supplements and rely on powerful drug therapy, right?
New evidence shows that when drugs fail, that's when SAMe can really save the day.
Raw nutrient for a hungry brain
Brain chemistry imbalance is a common cause of depression. And as HSI Medical Adviser Dr. Martin Milner noted in an HSI Members Alert back in 2004, that balance can often be restored with the basic raw nutrients your brain needs.
Most of the nutrients Dr. Milner commonly recommends for depression will be familiar to HSI members: omega-3, vitamins B-6 and C, evening primrose oil or flaxseed, 5-HTP (the precursor material the brain uses to make serotonin), and S-Adenosyl-L-Methionine, which is SAMe.
Prior research suggests that SAMe may relieve depression just as well as powerful antidepressant drugs. So researchers at Harvard School of Medicine mounted a study to test SAMe in more than 70 patients with major depressive disorder.
All subjects had been unsuccessfully treated with serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SRI) drugs.
For six weeks, half the group took 1,600 mg of SAMe daily, and half took a placebo. All subjects continued to use whatever medications they were taking at the outset of the study.
Response and remission rates were twice as high in the SAMe group compared to placebo.
Subjects in the SAMe group had no serious side effects, but I should note that when SAMe is taken in high doses (and 1,600 mg per day is very high), some people may experience insomnia, nausea, or restlessness.
Dosages of less than 400 mg daily are generally well tolerated and have been shown to help many people feel more energetic, alert and focused.
SAMe is a difficult supplement to produce, so it tends to be fairly expensive compared to most dietary supplements. But your body produces SAMe naturally – especially when you have an ample daily intake of folate and vitamin B-12.
Dr. Milner recommends a formula called SAMe Plus, which combines SAMe with folic acid, B-12, niacin, and choline. You can find SAMe Plus (made by Karuna) through various Internet sources.

and saves Hykmah whose name in ancient Greek is Sophia.
You are taken to the quarries where the three priests are awaiting you.
They start to arguing about their different faiths but Adrian tells them to stop. They are there to save a young girl and it is time to cooperate.
Turn around and take a step forward.
Take the parchment on the stairs.
Then turn left and take the bucket.
Read the parchment in inventory.
That together the Ram, the Fish and the Lion point out the right direction and protect the witnesses.
Going from Ramses the sons of Israel camped at Soukkoth.
Stand up. To the hip the truth as belt, the law for armor. Take mainly the shield of Faith. It will allow you to fight all the fire missiles of the devil.
May the impious know we've prepared a big fire for them.
Turn around and talk to the three men. Ask Kalonymus about the Ram's sentence. The Rabbi says that it seems easy to understand. They are at a fork in the path, Hayyat is asking them to take the right path, as our ancestors were led to the east when they left Egypt.
Ask Palmede about the Fish's sentence. He says that it is Saint. Paul describing the spiritual armor of the Believer in his epistle to the Ephesians.
Ask al-Wahid about the Lion's sentence. The Imam says it comes from the Koran and Adrian thinks it is a phrase that could be warning them against Fire.
Adrian think that Hayyat seems to be insisting on the shield of Faith but Palmede warns him to suspect everything from a man who has not hesitated to kidnap a woman.
Turn round again and follow Kalonymus advice to take the right tunnel.
There is a fire in your way and the men hesitate to go any further, Adrian asks them to think about Hykmah, she cannot be much further and that they here can find all they need to pass the fire.
Turn left and pick up the planks.
Then use the planks on the front of the wagon.
The planks are placed around the wagon as a shield.
Just go forward and they all will jump into the wagon and go unharmed through the fire.
Go forward and you come to a new fork. This time take the left tunnel and go forward.
Soon you are stopped by a big hole in the ground.
Look down. There are some slabs featuring the symbols for the three religions in different orders. Click at the one bearing, from top to bottom, the symbols Ram, Fish, Lion.
The arch crumbles and the stones fill the hole in the ground.
Continue forward until you come to a grilled padlocked door. Look down. There are some slabs too, featuring the same symbols as before but this time with a hole in the middle. There are also some sticks lying on the floor. Pick up the sticks and look at them in inventory.
Get the one marked Ram, fish, Lion and use it at the slab with the same symbol, it is the lowest of them. The stick is too thin you must try to make it bigger. Put the stick in the water-bucket in inventory. It will swell and is now called modified Ram, Fish, Lion.
Use the swelled stick at the hole in the same slab as before. Now it works and you can lift the cover. Underneath there is a key. Take it.
Now use the key to open the padlock.
"But who do I see approaching, the Jew, the Christian and The Moslem, walking side by side, despite the tests and dangers they have faced. And what was the purpose of this union that all thought impossible. Well, to save the most precious thing, the ultimate cause, the supreme value - human life. A simple life of a young girl perhaps, but a unique life, a breath, that nothing would have replaced ever. O, Eternal God of Abraham, of Jesus and of Mohammed, see the work of your servant, Hayyat the madman, he alone has managed to reunite your separated sons."
Adrian gets impatient and asks where Hykmah is.
"She is there in the shadows awaiting my sign," answers Hayyat, She is safe and sound, and she carries the dagger of Abraham. But she will only come out once those, that you lead, have finally sworn allegiance to the new Faith, of which they are now the witnesses and the messengers. - The Faith in the union of all the sons of God, behind the flag of love of Mankind."
You do not practise what you preach, Hayyat," Adrian says, "you abducted a young child and you placed obstacles in front of those who want to return her to her father's arms."
"Without danger how can you test your faith," Hayyat answers, " without threat how can you unite, That is also the path of love, Roumi, discovering that in such danger, the other, the foreigner, to whom you did not speak, he whom you believed to be your enemy, is above all a brother, with whose help you manage to overcome all obstacles.
While he is speaking Ibrahim and Hykmah enters. Ibrahim snatches Abraham's dagger from Hykmah and puts it at her throat.
"The path of love you say, Hayyat" he yells, "If you do not yet know that the only rewards given to love are envy, ingratitude and mockery, then you are truly senile."
Hayyat is shocked, "Ibrahim, my disciple," he wails, "but what are you doing?"
"I have some to add my contribution to your works," hisses Ibrahim. "But it will not have the face you drew for it, when I came to see you in prison. They will find the bodies of all of you in these grottoes and Soliman shall never forgive the governor for this."
He turns to Adrian. "Even though you found me out Roumi, There is nothing more you can do to save Hykmah."
When you get control click at Hayyat. Then click at the Word Hykmah.
"We came to save live, Hayyat," Adrian cries out. It is up to you to help us now."
Hayyat rusches to Ibrahim and attacks him and Ibrahim turns against him and stabs him. Adrian jumps Ibrahim from behind and knocks the dagger out of his hands. The dagger flies all over the cave and scatters at he ground.
Next time we see them they are all gathered in the Governors garden.
"You promised that the dagger of Abraham fell into dust in front of your eyes," The Governor asks.
"Yes, your Excellency," answers the Rabbi. "Well I mean, no. If it disintegrated it could not have been the Patriarch's dagger."
"Obviously," agrees the Archimandrite. "A holy relic would not break thus."
"And that is how this stupid Quarrel that threatened the peace of our communities ended" concludes the Imam. "Jews, Christians and Moslems, will again live together and do business with each other."
But where has my young Roumi gone? "
"He was with me just a second ago, Shavush," Hykmah says, "He asked me a strange question smiled, then moved aside a little, then disappeared. He asked me if I know what my name was in Ancient Greek."
"Your name in Greek," says Ozdemir, "it is Sophia."
Twice now Adrian has travelled in time to Save Sophia from danger, but the Goddess has not yet forgiven him. He must first pass the final test but when and where that will be only Cryo knows.

Is homologation too rude for the Olympics?
The Vancouver organizers for the 2010 Winter Games keep saying how they're trying to be as transparent as possible. But that message hasn't reached whoever wrote this week's press release announcing the homologation of the Whistler sliding centre.
Homologation! Sounds like something that shouldn't be talked about in polite company.
But it turns out that's just a fancy word that means the big refrigerated, concrete slide for bobsledders, lugers and skeletons (the craziest ones who go down head first) will be checked out to determine whether it meets all the international standards.

By David Renshaw

Gucci Mane has dropped a new solo track featuring Justin Bieber. "Love Thru The Computer" is a modern love song, with Bieber singing "you can meet me on my laptop" and "when we both logged on, I didn't wanna turn off." The song features a sample of "Computer Love" by Zapp.
The latest appearance by Bieber suggests his claim earlier this year of taking a break from music was not entirely thought out. Since then he has performed with Ariana Grande at Coachella and teamed up with Ed Sheeran on summer smash "I Don't Care." Gucci Mane dropped his latest album Evil Genius in Deceber 2018.

A New Cover For Christie!
by Suzanne Stengl | Nov 30, 2021 | Writing
In 2012, I published my first book — The Ghost and Christie McFee. At the time, I was calling it a Contemporary Romance. It does have a sweet romance subplot. However, it turns out to be more of a Cozy Mystery, and more specifically, a Cozy Ghost Mystery. So I decided to give it a new cover.
Since this was my first book, I wasn't sure about how covers matched up with genres. And so, this cover has gone through several iterations.
available on Amazon in eBook and Larger Print
I think this new one defines the story best.

Ghostly Treasure – Free for Five Days!
by Suzanne Stengl | Dec 2, 2014 | Reading
A Christmas gift for you!
A BUCKET LIST. A CHALLENGE. A GHOST. The missing piece? TREASURE!
Even though Lost Lake is renowned for claiming the lives of divers searching for the legendary gold buried in its depths, Christie McFee is determined to explore the Lake's underwater ghost town. And when a ghost from the past convinces her to join the treasure hunt, she throws her usual caution overboard.
Sure that the talk of ghosts is strictly for tourists, Gaven St. Michel, local Divemaster, is confident he can keep Christie's lovely body from being added to the Lake's count—until another ghost appears amid the watery graves in Bandit Creek.
Will Gaven be able to protect Christie as she drifts deeper into the murkiness of this unsolved mystery from long ago?

Ghostly Treasure – Free until Friday
by Suzanne Stengl | Aug 12, 2014 | Reading
My cozy mystery is free today through Friday.
"A ghost, a bucket list, challenges and hope. For those who like a bit of mystery, a touch of history and a light brush of romance."
Her first adventure might be her last.
When Christie McFee reads about the gold hidden at the bottom of Lost Lake, she decides to put some adventure in her life by diving for treasure. But when she meets Gaven St. Michel, the Divemaster on La Bonne Aventure, she starts to think that treasure can be whatever you want it to be.
If only Christie could figure out how to deal with the two ghosts who are haunting her—one of them wants her help, and the other wants her dead.

Ghostly Treasure: What's in a name?
by Suzanne Stengl | Jun 3, 2014 | Writing
By now many of you have noticed that I changed the title of THE GHOST AND CHRISTIE MCFEE to GHOSTLY TREASURE.
I decided the story was more of a "sweet romantic mystery" than a "sweet romance" and I wanted the cover to show that it was about diving. So the name of the book is different, but the story is the same.
[Editor's Note: The title has reverted to the original THE GHOST AND CHRISTIE MCFEE but this is a good example of the process for deciding on names.]
Have you ever wondered how an author goes about naming characters?
In GHOSTLY TREASURE, the hero and heroine were not always Gaven St. Michel and Christie McFee.
GHOSTLY TREASURE is part of the Bandit Creek collective. Now it's part of the smaller collection of BANDIT CREEK SWEET found here.
Way back when this book was still mostly an idea, I needed to fill out the publication slot with a title. "The Ghost and Sarah McFeigh" popped into my head. Then I didn't like Sarah, and Sarah became the nasty aunt. I landed on Kristy for my heroine, at least for a time.
For the hero, I pictured someone of French Canadian origin.
I liked "Remy" right away. Then for a last name . . .
Remy Edison
Remy Emerson
Remy O'Connor
Remy Delainy
Remy Michel
Remy St. Michel
Ahhh, Michael. The archangel, first seen as a healing angel, and then as a protector. I liked the Protector angle. But then, after I started writing, Remy didn't work. I had too many E endings: Remy, Kristy, Ripley, Charlie.
I thought about using Gabriel, but that wouldn't work because I had a Gabriel showing up in my next novella. At the time, I had just finished reading a story where the hero was called GAVIN. I chose a variation, GAVEN. It worked with St. Michel so my hero was named.
Now back to the heroine's name.
At this point, she was Kristy McFeigh. The Feigh could be pronounced two ways, so I shortened it to Fey. (A hard "A".) Then I remembered there was another character in the Bandit Creek series with a similar name. I wondered if Kristy McFey was different enough. It was time to consult with some other writers: Roxy Boroughs, Amy Jo Fleming and Brenda M Collins.
Me: Does anybody see a problem with my heroine's name as Kristy McFey?
Amy Jo: I love Kristy. Could not find a listing for McFey but McFey would be the son of Fey. Fey is not a common name, only found it once in a Scottish census in the 1800s.
Roxy: Why do you ask?
Me: I just wanted to see if it twigged. If there was an echo from an existing character in the series. Does it remind you of anyone?
Roxy: Not really. Sounds like she'd be cute. Fey makes me think fairy or effeminate. McFey vaguely reminds me of McVey (as in Timothy). Boom!
Me: Yeah . . . I didn't like that McVey association either. And he was McVeigh. I had thought of calling the heroine McFeigh, but that would be worse.
Amy Jo: I think that McFey would be a cool name if the character has some kind of psychic ability or is unconventional in some way. Then you could play with the name a bit. The idea that it means "doomed" might be good if the heroine was to die or had to be saved from something deathly. She could always be struggling against her fate and there could be many losses in her family making her somewhat tragic. All in all, I think it could provide an interesting scope for the character.
Me: I don't want her to die! And she has no magical powers. I think I will have to save "Fey" for another character in another book.
Brenda: In Irish/Newfie culture 'fey' means a fairy or soothsayer so McFey would mean Son of a fairy or soothsayer. I'm surprised it doesn't show up as Fairy in a search. I'm sure I've seen it in my research on witches. I agree you might want to save it for someone with a magical power.
Me: There's another problem. Tawny's character is Kirsten Morgan. Are Kirsten Morgan and Kristy McFey too much alike?
Roxy: Well, ya know, I didn't make the Kirsten Morgan connection . . . and I even mentioned her in MY book. But, yeah, you could certainly start it with a C.
Me: Which? Kristy McFey, Christy McFey, Kristy McFeege, Christy McFeege?
Roxy: Christy McFeege.
Me: Thanks. I think I will christen her today. You can be her godmother.
Roxy: Can I be a fairy, too? I'd like to have a wand.
Me: Fairies will have to be for another story. This one is about ghosts.
Amy Jo: You want Christy McFeege?
Me: Yes, I googled Christy McFeege and no one has it. I suppose her birthday is today, Dec 18. Now I will find a picture of her, and then I expect to be writing this on Dec 26. Thanks for the feedback. It's like naming a child.
Brenda: Hey, I've been trying to rename myself for years now and I still haven't settled on anything.
Me: Wait a minute. I just figured out that with an "e" ending, McFeege has a "j" sound and I want a "g" sound so there is the alliteration with "ghost" in the title. The Ghost and Christy McFeege.
Amy Jo: Leave off the E, then it's a "g" sound.
Brenda: But you trip over the "g" sound at the end. Go to McFee.
Me: But someone in the world actually has the name Christy McFee.
Roxy: Someone other than you has the name Suzanne Stengl.
Amy Jo: That's what the copyright disclaimer is for. This is a work of fiction. All of the characters, organizations, and events portrayed in this novel are either products of the author's imagination or are used fictitiously.
Me: Okay. She is Christy McFee.
At least she was for a while. Then Rolf did a mock up for the cover artist and he inadvertently misspelled the name as
Christie McPhee
So I kept the original McFee but went with the Christie instead of Christy. And the main characters became:
Do you like Christie McFee for a name? Would you have chosen one of the other variations? Can you hardly wait until I write a story with Remy as the hero?
The Ghost and Christie McFee is available here.
Model T Ford
by Suzanne Stengl | Sep 17, 2013 | Miscellaneous Moments
This past weekend, Rolf & I visited the town of Cochrane (Alberta, Canada) just west of Calgary to see the "Cochrane Classics Car Club Show and Shine".
Our neighbour Ross had entered his 1914 Model T Ford – 'C' cab. This is what it looks like. I especially like the leather diamond tuft seats.
This car is similar to the car Mr. Lyon drives in THE GHOST AND CHRISTIE MCFEE except Mr. Lyon's car is a 1911 Model T.
Several readers have asked me if Mr. Lyon is a ghost, and I don't know. But I do think there are several ghosts in that story, not just Christie's ghost. At any rate, I never figured out if Mr. Lyon was a ghost or not, although I suppose, if he really was a ghost, he may have brought the car with him from 1911 – when the original town of Bandit Creek flooded.
Like most antique cars, Mr. Lyon's car has had several modifications. For example, the buffalo wire wheels. Wire wheels were not available in 1911. And neither was the electric start conversion he added.
This is what it's like driving a Model T on the highway in Alberta sunshine.
Ross provided us with some interesting Model T Facts. Did you know that in 1914, it took 93 minutes to assemble a car, with an 8 hour day at $5.00 per day? Back then, $5 a day was an excellent wage and it attracted the best workers.
Not only did Henry Ford provide good wages, he was an early promoter of the 8 hour day. Although Ross wonders if that was because of the better working conditions, or the fact that an 8 hour day allowed for 3 shifts to work in the factory.
And then there were the colours. Colours, other than black, were only available for the Model T in 1908 – 1912, and 1926 – 1927. Ford wrote that "Any customer can have a car painted any color that he wants so long as it is black." Black – because it had the quickest drying time.
I don't think Mr. Lyon liked black, because he had his 1911 Model T wearing a fresh coat of metallic red.
Have you got a favourite colour for your car?


It may have been more than that. The (9th) Doctor gave his age as 900 in "Aliens of London" (1 story), after "Rose". The (11th) Doctor gave his age as 1103 in "The Impossible Astronaut" (6 story), just before apparently being shot, so it's 203 from "Aliens of London" to "The Wedding of River Song" (in which he was the same age as in "The Impossible Astronaut"). We don't know how long it was for the Doctor between "The Wedding of River Song" & "the Doctor, the Widow and the Wardrobe". It may have been only a short time but it could have been years. At the moment (pending any further information given in Series 7), all we can say for sure is that it was at least 203.

Harry Connick Jr. Recalls the 'Inappropriate' Moment Frank Sinatra Kissed His Wife Jill on the Mouth
Nov 19, 2019 12:31 pm·
By Joyann Jeffrey
There's a time and place for everything, but Frank Sinatra didn't seem to know that when he kissed Harry Connick Jr.'s wife, Jill Goodacre, on the mouth. The "Whisper Your Name" singer recalled the experience during a Tuesday, November 19, episode of This Morning, and said the whole thing was very "inappropriate."
"That was an unpleasant experience because as much as I wanted to sing for him and everyone else … I don't get nervous, but I was really nervous for that and I blanked out," Harry said. "I completely forget the words. I was with my wife, then my girlfriend, and then we saw Frank at the lift and I said 'we should go, I need to explain myself.'"
"I said 'I'm sorry I'm much better than what [you] saw', and he took my wife and held her face and said 'you're beautiful,' and kissed her on the mouth and that's that," Harry continued. "I've never been able to sing for him again. it was probably unacceptable then, it was a situation where it was an interesting thing, I think my affection for him in the context made it hilarious for her, but obviously it's completely inappropriate."

After they got married in 1994, Harry and his wife, who's also a former Victoria's Secret model, welcomed three kids — Georgia, 23, Sarah, 22, and Charlotte, 17. They all get along so well that Harry said they never feel embarrassed by each other.
"You constantly hear stories about kids who get embarrassed by their parents or daughters who get embarrassed by their dads … and I'm not saying this to be cool, but we never really got into that," he previously explained to People. "It was never really that, 'Can you drop me off a block away from school because I don't want to be seen with you?'"

"It was never like that with us. We never had that, and I don't know why," he added. "But we've always had a unique relationship and it's been pretty great."

Alfred (Freddy) Tratlehner (Amsterdam, 18 april 1983), beter bekend als Vieze Fur of Vjèze Fur , is een Nederlands rapper en zanger. Hij is bekend als lid van de Amsterdamse rapformatie De Jeugd van Tegenwoordig, die in 2005 een grote hit had met Watskeburt?!.

Biografie
Freddy Tratlehner brak nationaal door als lid van de De Jeugd van Tegenwoordig in 2005 met het nummer Watskeburt?!. Sindsdien is De Jeugd van Tegenwoordig uitgegroeid tot een populaire hiphopgroep met vele hits en inmiddels acht succesalbums. Verder won de groep belangrijke muziekprijzen, waaronder de Popprijs 2011, een Edison Award, de Gouden Harp en een MTV Award.

In 2014 nam Tratlehner deel aan Expeditie Robinson. Hij liep tijdens de opnamen van dit programma een tweedegraads brandwond aan zijn rechtervoet op. In de halve finale scheurde hij zijn trommelvlies door een harde val in het water, waardoor zijn deelname vroegtijdig ten einde kwam.

Tratlehner had sinds 2014 ook zijn eigen kledingmerk samen met Perre van den Brink onder de naam Tratlehner. In maart 2019 maakte Tratlehner bekend te zijn gestopt met zijn bedrijf. Datzelfde jaar bracht hij een kookboek op de markt: "Lekker Fred", dat een succes werd en een jaar later werd gevolgd door "Lekker Fred in het land". Hij richt zich daarin op de culinaire tradities en ingrediënten uit Nederland.

Sinds 2018 is Tratlehner getrouwd met documentairemaakster Elza Jo van Reenen.

Where is the 'road map' for road transport?
Trucks produce a quarter of the EU's transport emissions, yet their environmental performance remains unregulated. We need strict standards and a level the playing field for all modes of transport, writes Karima Delli.
NGO: Truck emissions limits crucial to achieving EU climate goals
Introducing EU-wide CO2 standards for trucks would bring significant savings and place Europe on track to fulfil its Paris climate commitments to cap global warming, a new study has found.
'Significant behaviour shifts' needed to cut transport emissions
Reaching the European emissions reduction targets will require citizens to change their driving habits and embrace alternative modes of transport, according to a new report by the EAA. Our partner Journal de l'Environnement reports.
EU trucks' fuel efficiency no better than a decade ago, study claims
Trucks in the European Union are no more fuel efficient than they were more than a decade ago, according to a report released on Thursday (3 December), as calls increase for emissions from heavy duty vehicles to be regulated in the same way as cars.
Nine out of ten new diesel cars exceed EU pollution limits, report finds
Nine out of 10 new diesel cars break new EU pollution limits when tested on roads rather than test tracks, according to a new report.
America's challenge to European truck supremacy
American trucks have always lagged behind in terms of efficiency, but new US regulations will soon cause the tables to turn, argues William Todts.
