I don’t know what it is about Societies that is so attractive to me. Perhaps it is their secret nature, or just the fact that it gives elite Player Characters something to strive for. Not every character should be allowed to join a society, or a group because if we allow that to happen, then they become meaningless.
Some sub-classes really lend themselves to the idea . . . nay, require a little bit extra work on the Dungeon Master’s part to create them. Paladins, Rangers, Specialty Priests, all three of these require some sort of organization in order to be effective, especially Paladins! They are required to pay tithes to someone, as well as take orders from superiors. Rangers, while normally chaotic by nature, and loners, still require some kind of system incase an area becomes too much for one ranger to handle. While it isn’t as tight of a network as the Lawful Paladin, it is still a network all the same.
Specialty Priests, the most widely documented being the Druid, demand a military like infrastructure. But what other classes can benefit from a guild? We know that Thieves use them, Clerics also must follow orders of their superiors, even if this superior is a god whom only he can hear. Fighters, typically always honed their trade in the military or a militia which by nature is also strict. Wizards too, while very loose and secretive about what they do, also, no doubt, have some way of policing their own, as well as forming intelligent societies to further their own alignment beliefs.
You can see where I am going with this now, can’t you. I think alignment is key here, again, we’ll use it as a tool. This is too much work to do at one time, so we’ll just do it on a need-to-know basis when the existence of these societies and groups come into question.
All professional trades rely on guilds, being a carpenter required a youth to spend much time under a master who taught them the trade in exchange for the youth to do pain in the butt tasks which the carpenter shouldn’t be wasting his time doing. It is kind of funny to look at old books on carpentry, today this profession is wide open, but back in the day the trade was very secretive! Looking over antique books dedicated to carpentry is enough to baffle and stupefy any reader as they were written to be as complex and drawn out as possible. Applying complex mathematical formulas to the simplest projects, this was not a profession to be taken on by the laymen! This is serious stuff, which requires years and years of tutelage in the proper institutions!
This wasn’t done out of meanness, but in protecting ones value and industry. Now we are learning a huge lesson which goes with demystifying trades, as our jobs are slowly being replaced by robots or cheaper workers, but I digress, I’m getting too carried away and straying away from my original point.
Lets invent some! But before we do, we have to have some sort of direction. Our guilds have to have some sort of reason for being, and some structure. They have to have benefits for the members, and a goal or purpose.
REASON FOR BEING
Our game worlds are regulated by an important tool, this tool is called Alignment. NOW QUIT ROLLING YOUR EYES! It’s rude! Alignments aren’t just for rules lawyers, or things to ruin our players lives with, but honest to god tools to make the process of creation easier.
Take a book as an example, and I mean a really good one. One that you love. It has a plot, but if you are like me then you probably love the really complex ones which can’t be described in just a sentence or two. This book has a plot, but it is buried deep inside and hidden within the mechanics of the book. We don’t notice it, of course we know that it is there, but when we are reading the book, it isn’t important to us. The plot is a skeleton, and if we use alignment as a tool, like we are suppose to, then we’ll cover up the alignment just as tightly and neatly as a well written book covers its plot.
You’ve got 9 different Alignments, these alignments show us the relationships among them. Opposing alignments hate each other, Tight groups get along, and mixed groups can tolerate the other and perhaps work together if the need arises (or go through periods of hostility too). Chaotic Evil and Lawful Good will always fight amongst each other, that is the way it works, if this doesn’t happen then our worlds aren’t in balance, and while the real world doesn’t need to make sense, fiction does. This is a mechanic, and mechanics are there for a reason.
Since our mechanics aren’t meant to be obvious, we’ll cover them up with purpose. A good guild should have many goals, however they should also have a purpose that is as fixed as the rising and the setting of the sun. . . or at least appear to be.
A Chaotic Good Wizard’s Guild opposes all Evil, they aren’t as organized and probably meet only once per year . . . if that. To make it really mysterious, we’ll have the meeting be held only 1 time per decade during the Eclipse, this is a meeting which requires all of their energies to keep the forces of evil at bay. Perhaps they meet at a Stonehenge, which is in fact a gate to hell, and if they don’t show up on this date, and if they don’t direct their energies towards this goal, then the gate will be flung open and unleash hell on earth. Well, at least that is what they believe that they are doing, the fact is that nobody really remembers a time when they didn’t do this and a few of the members think that this may just be a waste of time. Evil and Good are just illusions, we of course know that this is a tool of the beasts wishing to be released.
There is also a lawful evil Cleric society, it’s goal is to release these monsters from the Stonehenge. They believe that they can direct the creatures, most of the time they can worship there, except when the CG Wizards guild shows up, they just aren’t strong enough to oppose them face to face. They get along with a Chaotic Evil wizard society, as well as the local Chaotic Neutral Guild of thieves. The master thieves think that both parties are crazy, but might is right, and even though they turn on the LE Clerisy by extorting as much money as they can from the union, the Clerics in charge continue to enjoy the spies, and thorns which the CN thieves constantly place in the CG Wizards guild.
Well, I could go on, but you get the picture of how the alignment tool works. It practically writes itself! Not all guilds will have such an important task, many will simply be there to police their own and to provide a reputable house of knowledge to folks who may require or depend upon it.
Now, honestly, we don’t need to create an enter Lawful Evil Cleric society to appose the CG Mages, all it would take is one evil Cleric who is the main tool of the devil buried under the rocks of Stonehenge. A Lawful Evil Cleric society would have a bigger goal then simply opening a pit to hell, that is just too easy. One man can do that! The main goal of a Lawful Evil Cleric Society would be to infiltrate a Good religion and corrupt it.
On the outside, they would appear to be Lawful and Just, but they manufacture fear. They keep their flock suspicious of each other, they engineer witch hunts, taking out high profile individuals under the guise that they have been corrupted. They would use good clerics to be their foot soldiers, they would get off on the idea! The ruse is undetectable unless the most inner circle is exposed, which is protected by secrecy and fear. Everyone thinks that the inner-circle is a myth, the fact that the church is controlled by evil is insane! They feed the poor and protect the populous from the ever present evil. It wouldn’t take much of the stretch of the imagination to see how powerful this cult could be. Corrupting the church of an entire nation, turning it against their King unless he cooperated with the Inner Circles goals, becoming just a pawn in their quest for greater wealth and power. Anyone who apposes them, their property is seized, their family bloodline discredited, their execution and torture imminent. Since they are lawful, they probably have an entire order of Paladins unknowingly perpetuating their evil plans.
Groups should have goals which are appropriate to their size and power. If one individual can do it on his own, then why have an entire society working to do it? Lawful orders will have more members then Chaotic ones, and will have bigger goals as well as the ability to realize much grander schemes. However, if a Chaotic Order is spread out far enough, this is when they can become dangerous! Chaotic Orders survive on the powers of truly awesome individuals. Great minds are normally associated with your Lawful alignments, however this isn’t always so, Chaotic philosophies embrace the power of independent thought and reward ambition.
Chaotic Evil Bandits are very popular enemies in D&D, most of these guys aren’t even thieves, just big buff bullies who simply take what they want and murder anyone who tries to stop them. Management is usually horrid, if not completely inconsistent. This is their weakness. Even when they do find some kind of direction, say from our LE Inner Circle, these people are simply used as fodder, they serve a purpose only as long as they are useful. The LE Clerics would use them to fake evil miracles and frame the innocent, however if they begin to feel that the CE Bandits are a liability because they know too much, then they will just as easily turn on them, murdering them all quietly in their sleep.
Chaotic Evil Orders require much more thought and planning then Lawful Evil ones do. Thankfully there is a recipe, CE respect only one thing, and that is violence and fear. In CE Orders, you will find highly specialized leaders, or generals. Each of them bring something unique to the table. They will have their own underlings, but they will keep them weaker then themselves. If they believe that anyone within their ranks has more potential then they do, they will seek to destroy that person before he turns on them and takes their position. Members of an order will be highly skilled at this.
Each general will probably be of a different class, so an order will have a further reach then the single classed lawful societies do. The generals will be given orders from a really mean and bad, bad dude! Someone who even a 20th level mage would be terrified of! He will be even better at making himself irreplaceable then they are, a seemingly impossible goal. A demigod in his own right, a mystery man whose name has to be a myth, but it is still whispered just in case.
CE Societies always begin as an infection. Perhaps a LE society invites them into their inner circle, a major mistake, because as soon as the time is right, the CE society will murder and kill the LE masterminds and take over the entire order, and once they have a foot solidly in the door, it will take a full scale war to remove them and most nations don’t have that kind of resources or the skill required to get the job done quickly. Just because a group is Chaotic, it doesn’t mean that they are stupid. Once they become organized in their own way, they are worse then LE. Nobody is happy under them.
An example is a state policed by Murder. The King is never seen, and folks like it that way, he’s been in power for centuries perhaps it is a family name, but there are rumors. Life in the area is harsh, and secretive. Superstitions are high, garlic hangs in every window, small shrines decorate the streets. Pay your taxes, or disappear! This is a military state, however it is worse then that. A secret militia composed of monsters! Few people are aware of this, and those that figure it out are never heard from again. The highest ranks are filled by were-creatures, through mysticism, suspicion, and spies, they secretly deal with individuals in the night. Humanoids are allowed in the city and treated as equals, the human population is kept in check as serfs, each having a job to do, extra money being paid to those who have information about their neighbors. Most religion is outlawed, only evil deities can be openly worshiped, and worship is required by law.
Apposing them is an even more secretive society, a Neutral Good order whose ranks even include humanoids who believe in the old ways, that their kind should return to the wilderness. Their goal is to find out the identities of the individuals who form the secret police force, and assassinate them. They are aware that the King is a monster, but as of yet, no way has been discovered to eliminate him directly. There numbers are much smaller then the Kings, and casualties on both sides are a daily occurrence. The Neutral Good order has had to become more flexible then normal, because of the stakes. They use underhanded tactics believing correctly that the only way to fight fire is with fire.
Man, I just realized that that sounds exactly like the Karagat in Ravenloft, which is cool as it is a magnificent idea! In the art of DMing, one has to know how to take old ideas and make them your own.
Neutral Evil groups are typically associated with thieves, but frankly, that is just too easy. Bram Stoker had struck gold with his classic “Dracula”, in it, the Chaotic Evil Count operated unopposed in his homeland, only being thwarted when he tried to expand his power to the West. His minions were many, but most memorable were the gypsies. Gypsies are a mixture of bard and thieves, but also contain fighters, clerics, and mages in their ranks. Gypsies are more of an alternative human race with mystical and mysterious qualities. Dracula had formed an alliance with them, in return for protecting his interests during the day, and doing his evil bidding, they were allowed to live the life they wanted to live unopposed. This relationship is common with NE groups. They will align themselves with a powerful individual and thrive! Dracula would never turn on them as a whole, he wouldn’t feed off of their people, they were protected and they knew it. A gypsy caravan travels from town to town, they don’t care if the people know they are evil or not, it doesn’t matter, if they do know it is all the easier to operate. They don’t settle down because they have an undying love for travel, they provide entertainment, rumors, potions, and trade, but at a cost, they steal, and swindle the population. They spread fear and do the bidding of their evil master. Harm one of them, and the entire tribe will take their pound of flesh not just from you, but from your loved ones as well, even your children’s children are fair game to them! Never cross a gypsy, this lesson has been learned long ago, they are quick to anger and a powerful enemy that will never forget the slightest misdeed.
The Break Downs
There you have some examples of different factions. Rarely should a PC be able to join one of these things, and then, only after 9th level, and it should always be treated as a big deal.
Some factions are open, while others are highly secretive, have fun with the alignments, treat them as the tools they are and not inflexible borders which always lead people to trouble and abandoning them entirely.

Zagreb, 14 October 2021 – AI2FUTURE conference in Kraš Auditorium for two days, 14 and 15.10, brings together the Croatian AI community of companies and startups that develop products, services and solutions based on artificial intelligence. The annual gathering of the community is also the annual conference of the CroAI association, which presented the research of the AI scene in Croatia, AI Landscape 2.0. The goal of the association is to position Croatia as the leading AI nation on the global map. Among the key topics discussed was the position of artificial intelligence as a key strategic development determinant and the need to adopt regulations for the national AI Sandbox. The program of the second day will deal with successful business-technological examples.
In the introductory lecture on the first day, Mislav Malenica, President of the CroAI Association, commented on the activities of the association whose goal is to gather the community, create AI projects and build a better future. pointed out that in the last year the number of members of the association has grown to 215 members. The association has carried out many activities; for example, more than 30,000 people in Croatia took Elements of AI, the world’s best online course in computer science. Together with Germany and France, the Croatian association also participated in the founding of the European AI Forum, an annual gathering of European entrepreneurs, academics and politicians. Marijana Šarolić Robić (CroAI) presented the latest initiative of the association – the establishment of Adria AI Think Thank, which will bring together experts from various industries and fields and through dialogue to detect key topics related to artificial intelligence and its use for society. Dejan Iličić, director of the Development Agency of the City of Lipik, presented the AI Center Lipik, which is funded by the European Union and is funded by the European Union. Lipik intends to become a center for the development of artificial intelligence in Croatia and to open an AI campus in the future. Daniel Avdagič (AV Living Lab) spoke about the activities of the Slovenian laboratory that connects numerous industries, advanced technologies, data, content and people into one ecosystem with physical and digital infrastructure for the development of revolutionary solutions for the future of mobility.
Tomislav Vračić (Microsoft) presented to the participants the concept of Data Driven Nation applied by the Baltic countries. The concept is based on three principles: data democracy and public accessibility, data should enable citizen engagement and data-based innovation. Latvia has made data available through the Latvian open data portal and turned it into the foundation of innovative solutions, which has attracted many investors. For example, in 2016, Microsoft, in collaboration with the University of Latvia, opened the Microsoft Innovation Center, and Roche invested in a big data pilot project on gene analysis. Estonia has also focused on innovation, and the Government’s initiative to make data publicly available has resulted in more than 2,500 eGovernment services for citizens. Milly Doolan (CroAI and Euronavigator) presented the contribution of CroAI AI to the act of the European Commission.
During the panel discussion, Jan Štedul (CroAI) moderated a conversation with Goran Dautović (Project 3 Mobility – Rimac), Martina Dragičević (A1), Bojan Jerbić (FSB), Mislav Malenica (CroAI) and Ivana Vukov (Advisor to the Prime Minister). ). They discussed how to create a national AI sandbox, a secure environment for the development and application of artificial intelligence, which is flexible enough to create new startups and globally competitive solutions. All actors agreed that Croatia urgently needs a plan and that there is an interest of all stakeholders involved, from the Government and the academic community to business, to adopt the necessary regulations for Sandbox. It is important that the regulation is based on an understanding of technology and that it provides a legal framework that will not stifle, but encourage innovation.
Heidi Chenan (CroAI) presented AI Landscape 2.0. Croatia is just experiencing an AI boom – in 2020, 72 startups developed solutions based on artificial intelligence, and in 2021 we reached the number of 115 startups. Last year, startups earned more than 3.5 billion kuna, while this year the amount of investments exceeded 5 billion kuna. Users are mostly found in the IT sector, telecommunications, e-commerce and banking. 65% of products, services and solutions are placed on the markets of the European Union, followed by North America with 27% and Central and Eastern Europe with 24% share. More than 60% of the capital is domestic capital, while the share of foreign capital is 11%, and 27% have mixed sources of financing. Private capital predominates (81%), and the Croatian AI scene bases its connection with foreign countries mostly on networking (associations, clusters) and international cooperation. Compared to 2020, the share of women founders of startups is growing (from 15% to 17% in 2021), and women are an integral part of the AI team in 50% of respondents. As a challenge, startups point out that it is difficult for them to find AI experts (64.52%), AI sellers (61.29%) and employees abroad (50%).
In 92% of cases, talent is found through networking, and more than half rely on job advertisements (53%) and universities (52%). There is significant room for improving collaboration with universities and academia because in the survey, 42% of startups surveyed said they do not collaborate with academia. After Zagreb, most startups are based in Split, Lipik, Osijek and Rijeka.
Artificial intelligence has become an area of strategic importance and a key driver of economic development and can provide solutions to many societal challenges, but it is necessary to build an ecosystem that will support development. At the panel discussion, Krešimir Žmak (Infobip), Ratko Mutavdžić (Microsoft), Davor Runje (CISEX) and Damir Sabol (Photomath) discussed how to lay a stronger foundation for cooperation between all key stakeholders – AI community, academia and the state – in building it. ecosystem. They agreed that the role of leading domestic companies, in addition to the placement of top products, is to educate people and that it is necessary to strengthen cooperation with academia and universities in the form of research projects. They also pointed out that the challenge of hiring domestic talent became even greater during the pandemic as a large number of domestic AI experts took advantage of the opportunity to work remotely for foreign companies.
During the first day of the program, Croatian AI League awards were presented. The topic was AI – support for the protection and research of bottlenose dolphins in the Adriatic, and the task was to create an algorithm that will automatically recognize and identify dolphins. The best students – participants were awarded gold medals. As part of the conference, a CroAI pitch was held, at which selected TOP 10 AI startups from Croatia and the region were presented. The best team was chosen by a jury composed of investors, representatives of European venture capital funds, WC funds, which combined have hundreds of millions of euros of investment capital. The winners are Farseer and Cidrani with the same number of points, and the third place went to Ascalia.
The conference is supported in partnership by A1 and Photomath as TOP partners and Ascalia, BonsAI, Infobip, Megatrend, Business Intelligence, Robotiq and TIS.

Fashion sketching is where every designer’s creative journey begins, offering a canvas to envision and communicate designs before they come to life. For new designers, mastering the art of sketching helps to lay a strong foundation for their fashion careers. Here’s a guide to understanding essential techniques and tips for creating fashion sketches that are both functional and expressive.
Fashion Designing Course in Pune 1. Start with the Basics: Figure Drawing
A successful fashion sketch starts with a well-proportioned figure, also known as a “croquis.” Practice drawing figures with realistic proportions and a fluid posture. Beginners can trace or use templates to get familiar with human anatomy and learn the balance between body parts.
2. Understand Fabric and Movement
Fashion sketches should convey not only the garment's appearance but also its behavior on the body. Practice sketching different types of fabrics, observing how they drape, fold, and react to movement. From light chiffon to structured denim, study how textures appear in real life to translate them effectively onto paper.
3. Experiment with Various Poses
Static poses are helpful, but dynamic poses bring a design to life. Experiment with poses that reflect how the garment would be worn – a flowing dress in mid-twirl, for example, shows movement and structure better than a simple standing pose.
4. Use Light and Shadow
Adding light and shadow to your sketches creates depth, bringing out the shape of the clothing. Use shading to illustrate curves and layers, enhancing the fabric’s appearance. The direction of light can change the sketch’s mood, so experiment with shadows to understand their effects.
5. Focus on Details
Fashion is all about details. Accessories, stitching patterns, zippers, and buttons add personality to a design. Zoom in on these aspects without crowding the sketch, ensuring they support the main garment's look without overwhelming it.
6. Color Wisely
Color conveys the mood of a design and should be used thoughtfully. Watercolors, colored pencils, and markers are all great tools for adding color. Stick to a few shades to begin with, ensuring they complement each other. Practice blending colors to achieve subtle variations that make fabrics look realistic.
7. Use Digital Tools
Technology is a fantastic companion to traditional sketching. Software like Adobe Illustrator and Procreate offers tools that can speed up your work and add precision. Digital sketching also enables easier adjustments and allows you to experiment with textures, patterns, and color overlays.
8. Practice Consistently
Sketching is a skill that improves with practice. Create a daily habit of sketching new designs, and don't worry if they aren’t perfect. Each drawing brings you closer to discovering your unique style.
FAQs on Fashion Sketching for New Designers
Q1: What tools should I start with for fashion sketching?
As a beginner, start with basic tools like pencils, erasers, colored markers, and sketching paper. Once comfortable, you can explore other tools like watercolor pencils or digital tablets for added flexibility and precision.
Q2: How can I improve my fashion figure proportions?
Practice sketching croquis with proportional guidelines, focusing on balance and anatomy. Tracing figures from templates can also help improve your understanding of body structure and movement.
Q3: Is it necessary to add color to every sketch?
No, it’s not necessary to color every sketch. Start with black and white sketches to focus on shapes and forms. Adding color can be useful to show the garment's style and texture, but it isn’t mandatory.
Q4: What is the best way to show fabric texture in a sketch?
Use light shading, cross-hatching, and blending to depict textures. Observe real-life fabrics and replicate how they reflect light and fold on the body. Experimenting with pencils and markers helps achieve realistic fabric textures.
Q5: How can digital tools help in fashion sketching?
Digital tools like Procreate or Adobe Illustrator allow designers to work with layers, edit easily, and add precise patterns. Digital sketching is versatile and makes it easier to modify designs, try color combinations, and add intricate details.
Q6: What are some common mistakes beginners make in fashion sketching?
Beginners often overcomplicate sketches by adding too many details or using harsh outlines. Focus on clean lines and balanced proportions first. Another common mistake is ignoring fabric behavior, which can make designs look flat.
Fashion Designing Training in Pune Q7: How can I add more life to my fashion sketches?
Experiment with dynamic poses and use light and shadow for a three-dimensional effect. Incorporate movement in your sketches, showing how the garment flows and reacts to body motion.
Q8: Do I need to take formal classes to improve my sketching skills?
Formal classes can provide structured guidance, but many designers improve through consistent practice and self-study. Online tutorials and practice can also be very effective for mastering the basics.
Q9: How can I develop my unique sketching style?
Experiment with different techniques, tools, and styles, and study various fashion illustrators’ work. Over time, you’ll find a sketching style that aligns with your vision and personality.
Q10: How important is sketching in the overall design process?
Sketching is essential as it’s the first visual representation of an idea. It helps communicate designs to others, acts as a creative outlet, and forms the basis for further technical detailing and garment construction.
Fashion sketching is as much about expressing creativity as it is about technical skill. With these tips, new designers can start sketching with confidence, making each drawing a step closer to a successful design career.

The best thing you can ever do for your container plants is to give them compost tea from your vermicomposting bin. Compost tea is cheap and simple, and it will make your plants explode with growth.
The first step to making compost tea is to establish your worm bin. After a few months of feeding the bin, you will see a nice bit of black worm castings. The best way for balcony container gardeners to harvest the castings is to spread them out onto plastic grocery bags in the sun. Other methods use extra bins and buckets, and most balcony gardeners do not have the space for this extra equipment. Spread the castings out into a thin layer onto the plastic bags and set it in the sun until it dries. This way you can see if any worms are left in your pile. You will most likely end up with some worm eggs that will survive and hatch in your plant containers. Whenever you find a red worm in a container (this is common when transplanting), simply put it into the worm bin.
After the castings have dried, put about 3/4ths of a cup (it’s not necessary to measure it) of the castings into a gallon jug (like an old milk jug). When you are ready to water your plants, put water into the gallon jug and shake up the mixture. Some say that the castings should be used right away, but you will still see spectacular plant growth even if your worm castings are a month or two old. It isn’t necessary to constantly harvest the castings. About once a week, add the compost/water mixture to your container plants.
When watering your container plants with compost tea, keep an eye on your plants. Some plants do not respond well to too many nutrients and should not receive as much compost tea as others. If you notice yellow leaf tips, it means you are giving the plant too many nutrients.
Giving your plants compost tea is not an exact science. Do what’s easiest for you when harvesting and feeding the plants in your garden. See how long you can keep worm castings and still see great growth.

NARROW-HEADED GARTERSNAKE Thamnophis rufipunctatus
A medium-sized (up to 1,115 mm or 44" in total length) gray, greenish tan, tan, or brown snake with paired dark gray, brown, or orange spots running the length of the back.
The spots become small and muted posteriorly and eventually fade into the background color as they near the tail. Additional spots mark the sides of the body. The underside is pale cream grading to light gray posteriorly. There are often two parallel rows of dark blotches running the length of the belly. The long and narrow snout gives this snake its common name. The eyes are positioned high on the head and the pupils are round. The dorsal scales are keeled.
This snake is found along and below central Arizona's Mogollon Rim at elevations ranging from ca. 2,200' to 8,000'. Many Arizona populations are in decline and some populations may already be extirpated. Possible threats include introduced crayfish, introduced predatory fish, streamside cattle grazing, heavy recreational use of streams, and water diversions.
It is usually encountered in or near clear, rocky streams or rivers in communities ranging from Arizona Upland Sonoran Desertscrub through Petran Montane Conifer Forest.
This highly aquatic diurnal and evening crepuscular snake forages underwater and basks on banks and in the branches of willows that overhang the water. It has been observed (author obs.) foraging in the water well after sunset on several occasions. It shelters and thermoregulates under streamside rocks and in streamside crevices. It hibernates in rocky outcroppings high above the flood line during the cold months of late fall and winter. When encountered it is often quick to dive under the water and seek shelter under the rocks on the bed of the stream.
The Narrow-headed Gartersnake eats fish including dace, chubs, and both native and introduced trout. It may occasionally prey on salamanders. It has also been observed eating Smallmouth Bass on one occasion.
Mating takes place in the spring and up to 18 young are born in summer.
Protected in Arizona. It is against Arizona State law to harass, harm, pursue, hunt, shoot, wound, kill, trap, capture, or collect this animal or to attempt to engage in any such conduct.

My new book, The Case for a Proto-Gospel: recovering the common written source behind Mark and John, should be going to press sometime in December and be available shortly thereafter. There’s an Amazon link to the book in the right sidebar (somewhere else in Mobile displays).
Barrie Wilson, Professor Emeritus and Senior Scholar, Religious Studies, York University, Toronto, had this to say about the book
Gary Greenberg is a superb intellectual detective, following up on tantalizing clues in ancient texts to uncover sources and insights that others have missed. In this latest work, Gary traces similarities between the Gospel of John and the earlier Gospel of Mark. In so doing, he makes a remarkable discovery — lurking behind both gospels is an earlier document that each has used, independently of the other. Here is a new source document that sheds important light on the crucial decades following Jesus’ death.
Carefully crafted, well written, based on historical and literary analysis, Gary’s book enhances our understanding not only of the Gospels of John and Mark but the process whereby the gospels themselves came to be.

Psalm 119, longest chapter in the Bible. The writer is so convinced the law is a great thing. This startles us, because we're convinced Jesus is so much greater than the Law. As John says, the law came through Moses, grace and truth came through Jesus Christ.
But Psalm 119 does say God is greater than the law. "Your word, Lord, is eternal. It stands firm in the heavens. Your faithfulness continues through all generations." Just as John proclaims the Word as eternal, from the beginning with God, the Word with God, who is God.
Psalm 89 reminds us of something else firm in the heavens. God's covenant with David, to establish his line, his throne forever. Praise to the Son of David, who has ruled, who will rule forever.

I was told it was a Daredevil anthology done in the style of the Marvel Magazines from the 70’s and 80’s. Could be an iconic cover, something of an homage to the 80’s Miller/Mazzuchelli and Nocenti stories or that evokes their styles. I was inspired by Daredevil #216 cover done by David Mazzuccelli.
I did lot of sketches, but remember, never show to your editor sketches and proposals you do not like unless you want them to be chosen. These are the proposed ones.
Once it was approved I started penciling. Well, my pencils are not really pencils nowadays, I draw them digitally using a Wacom tablet and Photoshop. Then, I use to print them on a board and ink. Process and final pencils:

Who would have known where we would be today. Living in San Francisco was in the works but the details were still being ironed out. Owning my own photography business was a dream and hope but not a reality yet. Kids, ha! Anyone who knew us back then knew that was the furthest thing from our minds. We had no idea what life would bring us. All we knew is that we wanted to find out together. Today, among numerous other wonderful blessings, we're ecstatic to live in this city that we love, I'm able to photograph happy people for a living and above all we have darling Cooper in our lives.

By now you know that IBM's Watson kicked ass on Jeopardy. It's interesting to hear how people were either rooting for or against the computer. What I found more interesting was how the other contestants, and the host Alex Trebek, seemed to react to "Watson". Of course, what they were reacting to was not the box housing the equipment, wires and logic boards but a monitor displaying an active graphic relating Watson's "thoughts". From the display you could see the computer "thinking" and it's "confidence". In reality, it's displaying an algorithm that shows the computer working on the problem and relating the projected probability of correctness. What's brilliant about this Joshua Davis creation is that it in no way looks like a face (spheroidal, sure, but not a face). I think if people did relate to the machine, it was simply because it had an expression and that's what made the connection.Contrast Watson to IBM's Big Blue — who in their right mind wanted a faceless, Fascistic monolith to defeat a person, or even any weird Robert Zemeckis digital zombie and it's immediately obvious just how Watson's "face" is so engaging. Watson is so much more personable than HAL, even if it does share the same snarky tone and dark threat to defeat all human counterparts.

Tanya is showing off again, she had her next block in our Beginner Quilt Along She is frustrated with her block because her corners don't match perfectly. I think she did a fantastic job though.
When I sat down to make this post it seems I have extra pictures on my camera. My Daughter took this picture of my 3 cherries. I bought 2 cherry trees this year and planted them in my front yard (ran out of room in the back yard for tree's it has way more then our small yard can handle.) I do not know much about cherry's other then they taste good how do you tell when they are ready?
As for me all I did today was finish the quilting of my soldier star quilt. This quilt took some serious effort. I wanted to echo quilt both sides of all the blocks that were different side by side (so between blue and read etc and white and blue. but between same blocks I did not quilt) It was a lot of effort to drag the quilt though the machine. Now all I need to do is cut it down (we did a booboo on basting it and part of one side did not get back and batting) so I need to find the least amount I can cut off the edges to make it look good and bind it should maybe have it done by Friday night.
This block is one of my 12 1/2 inch block swap blocks I got this month it sure is pretty.

Are you a livestock veterinarian that spends a lot of time on calls to farms and barns, and sometimes you are called out when it's only a false alarm? If you are, and if you could send the others in your office to determine if the situation is an emergency, you want to get the right tools to prepare your staff to make the proper assessment. If you get veterinarian students, assistants, or other medical professionals that are used to working with animals, have them trained to use these things and have them assess the animals before you drop everything in your practice to see what is going on.

Heroin is a dangerous drug, and when a person begins using heroin there is a very high chance of becoming physically and psychologically addicted.

Nutraceutical potential of ripe and unripe plantain peels: A comparative study
Ibhafidon Shadrach, Adaramola Banji and Onigbinde Adebayo
This study investigated the nutraceutical potential of ripe and unripe plantain fruit peels which are commonly discarded as food wastes. Proximate and mineral analyses of the samples were performed as per the standard methods of the
Association of Official Analytical Chemists. Preliminary phytochemical screening of aqueous, acetone and methanol extracts of the peels was also carried out in accordance to standard methods. From the results of the study, acetone extract of
the unripe peel showed the presence of eight phytochemicals while its ripe peel showed the presence of four. Aqueous and ethanol extracts of both peels showed the presence of same phytochemicals i.e., terpenoids, cardiac glycosides, phenols,
flavonoids, alkaloids, reducing sugars and saponins. Meanwhile, tannins was absent in all three solvent extracts of both peels. Fat, ash, crude fibre and carbohydrate contents of the unripe peel were higher than those of the ripe.
However, moisture and protein contents of the ripe peel were significantly higher (P < 0.05) than those of the unripe. Of all the nine essential minerals assayed (K, Na, Mg, Ca, P, Fe, Zn, Mn, Cu), concentrations of all except calcium were significantly higher (P < 0.05) in the unripe peel than those of the ripe peel. Notably, none of the heavy metals (Co, Cr, Cd, Pb, Ni) assayed was detected in both samples. This study concludes that ripe and unripe plantain fruit peels could serve as promising sources of nutrients and bioactive compounds essential for the health of both livestock and humans.

All event requests must adhere to event submission guidelines. This does not replace the need to submit a PN-60 for events requiring use of college facilities. The City Tech Calendar is only for College-related events; all other requests will be denied.
The goal of an event description is to publicize the event so the college community is aware of what is happening on campus. Keep in mind your intended audience as many will make decisions based on what is available to them. Event descriptions should be simply written in a clear and concise manner. Avoid the use of slang or jargon and the use of exclamation points (!!!). Do not include personal contact information for questions on events. In general, attendees will decide whether to attend based on the event description. In the rare cases where an email address or phone number is appropriate, it should be departmental, not individual. Remain factual, but try to make the description enticing to the target audience. Every event should include a specific location, including a street address if the event is available to the general public.
Some events may "belong" to more than one category. If that is the case, choose the second option on the pull-down menu: "more than one." A list will appear, allowing you to select all of the categories to which your event pertains.
All requests to the City Tech calendar should be submitted no later than one week prior to the start of the event. It is recommended, though, that you proofread everything carefully, as the description will be displayed on the public-facing calendar. Once a request has been submitted it may take anywhere from 24 - 72 hours before an event is approved. An event is not official until you receive an email confirmation and is posted on the City Tech events calendar.
Once a calendar request has been submitted it will make its way through the approval process, an event is not "live" until it appears on the calendar page. If a change needs to be made, email the calendar administrator at [email protected]. Once your event has been processed an email will be sent, even if the event request has for any reason been denied.
Failure to adhere to submission guidelines can delay the event approval process and delay posting to the college calendar.

The day was lovely and we locked the bikes and wandered the town looking at all the tourists with their ice creams and cameras. We then stopped for our own ice cream and took it to the part at the mouth of the river. This is where the Niagara river spills out to Lake Ontario, and across the river is Fort Niagara on the USA side:And from the other angle, a 45 degree turn to the left, and zooming across Lake Ontario, was this photo of Toronto. Visible are the office towers and the tall CN tower.
And the last photo is the Quilt Wrap, now about 5 feet long and just over half done! Still enjoying this fuzzy project, although it sheds a bit while knitting, so I change into old T's and shorts before I knit, then have to change again if I am going out again. It looks like I have a shedding multi-coloured cat if I don't change my clothes!

Biking on a Summer Day
We were shut out of our usual golf game, a big tournament was scheduled on our course... so we popped the bikes in the backof the Pickup and off we went to the Niagara Parkway Recreational Trail. It is a paved trail that runs along the Niagara Parkway, from Fort Erie, past Niagara Falls and ends at Niagara-on-the-Lake. We parked near Queenston and rode the bikes along the trail into the town of NOTL. Here is a picture of Rick:

We didn’t make it all the way to the Boca Cerrada aldea. Following the photos from the bottom right shows our embarcation point from an aldea called Tierra Firme, the jumping off point to Boca Cerrada. We made our way down the estuary toward the sea and stopped at a large home where the alcalde and his regidores were having a cabilde abierto (La Masica’s mayor and city council were having an open council meeting.) At which Jovenes sin Fronteras with myself in a supporting role were on the agenda. After our presentation, four of us continued down the estuary to a wide spot in the water where we could reach the Caribbean Sea via a small hut that was lived in by several people, most of them children. When we returned, our companeros were waiting for us and we loaded up for the return trip, my JSF colleagues Delia and Araceli and I posed for a photo before they loaded into the lancha with the waiting city council members. On our trip in another lancha for us remaining we saw cranes, turtles, a manatee feeding at water’s edge and in the second-to-last picture a monkey barely visible near the bright spot on the right of the pic. Click on the pic to see the black of its body. The old dugout canoe in the final pic is something I would not set sail in, ever.

Ecuador is one of the smallest countries in South America, yet it teems with life and tradition, a SE professor said during a speech on the country for Hispanic Heritage Month Sept. 29.
Ivan Mino, a Spanish assistant professor and an Ecuadorian himself, told the audience about the nation’s contrasts from the Galapagos Islands to the Amazon River basin. Mino was born in Quito, Ecuador, and moved to the U.S.
He went on to join the Peace Corps and served for many years, finally returning to the U.S. to teach. He received his master’s degree at the University of California-Irvine, where he is now working toward his doctorate.
His favorite memories were his years playing soccer in high school, where he was named best sportsman and captain for his undefeated team in Staten Island, New York.
Mino shared a video produced by his daughter, who works for the president of Ecuador, showing the country’s nature as well as the people and the way they live.
“The attitude of the people toward nature, they take care of it. They are very proud of it,” he said.
Mino said how important the Galapagos Islands are to the Ecuadorian people and the human race.
“To be in the Galapagos is to be in one of the most beautiful places in the world,” he said.
Mino also spoke about Darwin and his role in discovering the nature that encompasses the Galapagos as well as speaking on how Darwin made an impact on how Ecuadorians would treat nature from then on.
Ecuadorians believe in evolution, and they believe everything should be done with respect in accordance to the nature they live in, Mino said.
“The most famous product of Ecuador, not one of the products that make the most money … the Panama hat,” he said.
Mino spoke on the Amazon, the indigenous tribes within the basin, and the oil trade moving in on that territory. The Ecuadorian government filed suit in court for damages caused by a massive oil spill by the Chevron-Texaco company.
“Oil changes the minds of the people,” Mino said also mentioning the children with black feet that suffered from exposure to the spill.
Next, Mino spent time discussing the artist Oswaldo Guayasamin and the art he produced. Mino gave in-depth insights on the personality and style of the famous artist and shared many paintings around the setting that were among the most known of Guayasamin.
Mino showed La Pieta, Guayasamin’s painting depicting the death of Jesus, along with other artworks.
“He was a very irreverent person as an intellectual,” he said. “He painted this based on a famous painting. The only thing is that in this one he undresses Jesus.”
Speaking on Ecuador and the possibility of a rise out of poverty, Mino shared that he could not see that there would be change.
“With more riches, there is more poverty,” he said.
Ecuadorians love life and nature, he said, and the nation is also one of the best places in the world to retire.
After the presentation, Mino said he loves TCC and the atmosphere he has experienced, leaving big universities for what he has found at TCC.
After his teaching career is over, he said he would retire to Ecuador where he would spend his time with family at home.
“The world is wide and foreign,” he said, “We must explore it.”

I picked up three books that I had on hold from the library today. I'm very excited about all of them.
The Ghost Map is a book recommended to me by my cousin. It is about the black plague in London, and its affects on society there and in the rest of the world.
Quilts in Sweden is a book that I am getting for a second time because I loved it so much. The quilts and especially the fabrics are spectacular.
Last, but not least, The New Artisans is one I have been waiting to arrive for many months. Anna Emilia has a blog that a came across while clicking around through other blogs. I absolutely LOVE the drawings and paintings she does, and the way that she writes. One day in a post, she announced that she is one of the artisans featured in this book. The book is full of artisans and pictures of their beautiful handcrafted items.
I can't wait to turn on my lamps and sit on my couch under a quilt, looking through my books.

If you’ve ever downed a Five-Hour Energy or something similar in size, you’ve gotten the experience of drinking what you see me drinking here. Except for two things.
One: the taste, as I remember it (this was 11+ years ago), was great. It was like a non-alcoholic Fireball shot. Very cinnamon-y but not medicine-y like most energy drinks.
Two: it packed a wallop. I can’t remember how many shots were in the box they sent me (looks like a 12-pack) but I remember thinking that the next week or so was going to be very productive.
My plan for this review was to ham it up a bit for the camera regardless of how well this tiny energy drink actually worked – but luckily for me, it actually worked great. Unluckily for me, I think the drinks cost $3-$4 or so per shot at the time, which was too rich for my frugal blood.
And I’ll be damned, but you can still buy them now: $42 for a 12-pack right from the Mana website.
Review of the video itself: 8/10. I still laugh at the Motley Crue/Office bit.

(HealthNewsDigest.com)- Keeping pets safe and happy when it’s cold is a major concern for all pet owners. Marc Morrone, renowned pet expert and host of Hallmark Channel’s “Petkeeping with Marc Morrone” (airs weekdays at noon), is a modern-day Dr. Dolittle and Martha Stewart’s go-to guy in the world of four-legged and winged beasts, from dogs to cats and rabbits to parrots.
On his show, Marc reveals what viewers need to know about caring for their pets, and below are Marc’s top tips for winter pet care:
• When fitting dogs with boots and sweaters, make sure to practice inside your home first. If your pets aren’t comfortable walking around the house in their gear, they will not be comfortable in the outdoors.
• Don’t forget about the wild animals in the winter. Placing a bird feeder outside your window can mean the difference between life and death for a little songbird.
• Keep antifreeze out of reach of pets. It is extremely toxic. Marc cannot stress that enough.
• If you live in an apartment building or co-op, petition the board to only use pet-safe deicer on the sidewalks and courtyard walkways throughout the winter.
• If you own a reptile, keep extra heat lamps on hand during the winter months in case one blows out during a holiday or snowstorm and you can’t get out to replace the bulb.
• In the winter, dry air causes dogs and cats to shed quite a bit. To combat this, brush your pet daily and add raw flaxseed oil to your pet’s food (1 teaspoon for every 10 lbs. of your pet’s weight). This will help reduce dryness of the skin.
In every episode of “Petkeeping with Marc Morrone,” customers stop by with pet in hand seeking Marc’s advice on every topic from common cat/dog misconceptions to how to keep children and pets safe and happy while living under the same roof. This season, he looks at plus-size pets, baby pets, older pets, high-maintenance pets and more. He made his national TV debut in 1998 on Martha’s show after she spotted him on a New York cable access show. The author of five books, Marc also writes a syndicated pets column for Newsday, hosts “Ask Marc, the Petkeeper” on Martha Stewart Living Radio and has a weekly show on News 12 New York called “Animal Island.”

(HealthNewsDigest.com) – Every bride deserves to look and feel like a queen on her wedding day; however, not every bride has the budget of a queen. Do it yourself hair and makeup looks have increased significantly in popularity in the last few years, with YouTube tutorials abound and products at our fingertips that take the hassle out of the process. Here, Gocha Hawkins, celebrity hairstylist, makeup artist, and owner of Gocha Salon, delivers three show stopping hair and makeup looks that are easy enough to pull off yourself, and still make you feel like the queen that you are.
“As a general rule of thumb, shimmer does not always photograph well. Do your best to keep makeup matte and be sure that foundation is blended thoroughly as the camera detects oily skin. For summer brides, humidity is their worst hair enemy. Dry hair downward at a 90-degree angle to avoid frizz while styling, and ask your hairstylist beforehand about products that will work with your hair’s natural texture. Additionally, every bride should have a touch-up kit on hand the day of the wedding to avoid a beauty disaster,” Gocha advises.
This summer, it’s all about the pop of color in the makeup world. “The runways for spring and summer 2012 collections were sprinkled with bright neon shades not only in terms of the clothing, but also in makeup,” explains Gocha. “This has definitely prevailed as a trend for the more fashion forward bride this season. Also, it’s very versatile and can work for women with short hair. Pairing this with a structured yet whimsical teased ponytail achieves a stunning, bold statement. Think rocker mom Gwen Stefani’s electric style.”
· Choose one feature to focus on; whether you’re going with a bright eye or lip, having both will be distracting and take away from your overall look. If drawing the focus to the eye, begin by using a powder-based primer to set. MAC Cosmetics has countless shadow options and at $15.00, it’s a steal. As far as a show-stopping lip, go with a matte lipstick. NARS’s semi-matte lipstick is a safe bet and cost-effective at $24.00.
· A volumized ponytail is stunning and works with warm weather instead of against it. To create this look, leave out the hair at the crown of the head when pulling hair back. Curl hair with a large-barreled curling iron for a bouncy, wavy texture or pin up for a more traditional updo. Tease hair at the crown for volume, spraying hairspray at the same time to set the look. To smooth, apply wax pomade and secure with a hair pin.
For the bride that wants to play up her sex appeal on her wedding day, a slightly heavier makeup look with a glamorous yet simple ‘do is the way to go. “Creating a dramatic eye with a red lip gives off that eternal essence of old-Hollywood charm and epitomizes class for a sophisticated affair. A great role model for this look is January Jones, who keeps it in her repertoire for big ticket red carpet events. If your wedding’s theme leans toward romantic vintage, this look is definitely for you,” says Gocha.
· Spend time testing different shades of the perfect red. Depending on skin tone, a red with a tint of orange or undertones of pink will look best on most brides. Keep other makeup simple, but still stunning by lining the upper rim of your eye in a black kohl liner. Use an eyelash curler for added volume (or if you’re even more adventurous, fake lashes) and make sure to apply ample mascara. Sweep a natural looking blush on cheeks for the full effect.
· Retro waves are flattering on every face shape and most hair lengths, except for very short. Following your shower, use leave-in conditioner to keep hair moisturized. Dry hair and part to the side. Curl in 1-inch sections and then roll forward. Set with an anti-frizz serum that will moisturize your hair throughout the night.
Minimalism is a dominant trend for summer that emerged during the collections for 2012 designer campaigns. As Gocha explains, “With a natural makeup look, I like to do something fun with hair, like take a classic style and evolve it to be more modern. One of my favorite hairstyles of the past year was Charlize Theron’s look at the Oscars. Not only does she pull off a modified version of the classic chignon, but she elevated the headband and transformed it into a formal hair accessory.”
· For makeup, choose a blush that is as close as possible to your natural flush color. Define your features by shading eyelids with a soft, natural hue that is a shade darker than your skin tone. Lightly line eyes with a black liner if desired, or just stick with a few coats of mascara to make them pop. For lips, stick to a shade or two darker than your lip hue in a moisturizing, lightweight tint.
· Curl small sections with a 2-inch curling iron to create waves. Spray with a shine-enhancing product and brush to eliminate the threat of separation. Sweep hair to your preferred side and roll hair into a loose bun. Pull out some face framing strands to create an unstructured, wispy look. Finish by spraying with holding spray and carefully place your headband.
“The most important advice I can give to any DIY bride is to test your looks beforehand, thoroughly. Entrust one of your bridesmaids with the duty of spending a day helping you test out makeup and hair looks with a digital camera and under fluorescent lighting. This way, there are no surprises when you take your photos, and you can feel confident that you’ve achieved the exact look you want. Because, after all, that’s the most important thing; that the bride is happy on her wedding day!” says Gocha.

(HealthNewsDigest.com) – DALLAS, May 7, 2019 – Drinking water that is contaminated with arsenic may lead to thickening of the heart’s main pumping chamber in young adults, a structural change that increases the risk for future heart problems, according to new research in Circulation: Cardiovascular Imaging, an American Heart Association journal.
“People drinking water from private wells, which are not regulated, need to be aware that arsenic may increase the risk for cardiovascular disease. Testing those wells is a critical first step to take action and prevent exposure,” said Gernot Pichler, M.D., Ph.D., M.Sc., lead author of the study and medical specialist for Internal Medicine, Department of Cardiology at Hospital Hietzing/Heart Center Clinic Floridsdorf in Vienna, Austria, scientific collaborator at INCLIVA Health Research Institute in Valencia, Spain, and a visitor scholar in the Department of Environmental Health Sciences at Columbia University in New York City.
People are most frequently exposed to arsenic, a toxic metalloid, through drinking water in areas where groundwater is contaminated, including many American Indian tribal communities and other rural and suburban communities in the United States. Previously, several studies have shown that arsenic exposure raises the risk of heart disease and its risk factors, including high blood pressure and diabetes. This is the first study to review the question in young American Indians in Oklahoma, Arizona and North and South Dakota.
Here, researchers reviewed data from the Strong Heart Family Study, a study evaluating cardiovascular risk factors among American Indians. Arsenic exposure was measured in urine samples from 1,337 adults (average age 30.7 years, 61% female) and the size, shape and function of their hearts were assessed using ultrasound (echocardiography). None of the participants had diabetes or heart disease at the start of the five-year study.
Overall, arsenic exposure was higher than in the general United States population, but lower than that found in other studies conducted in Mexico and Bangladesh. With a two-fold increase in arsenic in the urine, the researchers found:
- 47% greater chance of thickening of the heart’s main pumping chamber (left ventricle) in the group as a whole; and
- 58% greater chance of thickening of the left ventricle in participants with increased or high blood pressure (blood pressure at least 120/80 mm Hg or using pressure-lowering medication)
“The stronger association in subjects with elevated blood pressure suggests that individuals with pre-clinical heart disease might be more prone to the toxic effects of arsenic on the heart,” Pichler said.
The study is limited by having only one measure of arsenic exposure, and by the lack of long-term follow-up of the participants. Although this study was performed in tribal populations in the north, central and southwestern United States, the results are likely to be generalizable to millions of people in other rural locations exposed to low or moderate levels of arsenic in their water, according to Pichler.
“The study raises the question of whether the changes in heart structure are reversible if exposure is reduced. Some changes have occurred in water sources in the study communities, and it will be important to check the potential health impact of reducing arsenic exposure,” Pichler said.
“Observational studies can stimulate future research on genetic, environmental and clinical factors to shed light on the relationship between arsenic and cardiovascular disease,” said editorial author, Rajiv Chowdhury, M.B.B.S., Ph.D., Cardiovascular Epidemiology Unit, Department of Public Health and Primary Care, University of Cambridge, United Kingdom “These studies are important since cardiovascular disease remains the single leading cause of adult premature death worldwide and millions of individuals globally are exposed to arsenic and other metal contaminants.”

A Journey to Forensics Headquarters
January 2023 Issue
by Mary Hope Roseneau
Photography by Cassidy Dunn Photography
Lieutenant Renita L. Berry answered my email sent over the weekend promptly at 9:30 am on Monday morning. That gives you an idea of her professionalism. We set our appointment for the same day, in the afternoon. She’s a busy lady who doesn’t waste time; I admire that a lot.
In addition to the rank of Lieutenant in the Beaufort County Sheriff’s Office, Renita retired as Colonel with the South Carolina Army National Guard just two years ago, having served 34 years, including two overseas deployments in Bosnia and Kosovo.
Renita and a friend joined the National Guard right out of high school in the little town of Bowman, SC, initially just to receive tuition aid for college. But she fell in love with the military and made it a career. She graduated from the University of South Carolina in Columbia with a degree in Chemistry in 1993 and earned a Master of Arts in Management from Webster University in 2004. She worked with the South Carolina Department of Health and Environmental Control at first, but a tour of a South Carolina Law Enforcement (SLED) lab opened another door for her.
During a deployment, she had time to reflect about her life goals and career path, and when she returned, she immediately applied for a position with SLED. (She admitted to calling them daily to check on her application status.) Guess what? She got the job! Persistence pays.
As a Class I Law Enforcement Officer Deputy, Renita must qualify on the shooting range, as well as pass all the physical requirements of the job. She said, “You have to do what you have to do.” She also gives credit to colleagues saying, “I’ve always had good people in my corner,” to help with all aspects of her job. She worked with SLED as a Drug Chemist until 2001, when she was recruited by Beaufort County Sheriff P.J. Tanner to come to Beaufort.
Sheriff Tanner’s dream was to have a state-of-the-art forensics laboratory here in the Lowcountry to handle the high volume of drug related crimes. The Lab was initially housed in the Law Enforcement Complex in Beaufort and then at the brand-new University of South Carolina Beaufort New River Campus. While at USCB, Renita assisted with teaching a Chemistry Lab course for one semester. She later served as a guest instructor for a Forensics course, as well. The DNA investigative unit was added in 2008 and now has eight employees and a new state-of-the-art laboratory was completed in 2010. Renita was officially named Director of the Beaufort County Sheriff’s Office Forensic Services Laboratory in 2010.
Currently Renita and the rest of the lab staff are working on an internal audit, which helps to ensure the laboratory remains in compliance with ISO 17025:2017 standards, a requirement for international accreditation. The main responsibility of the lab is to receive, evaluate and analyze evidence from criminal investigations. The lab scientists do this by providing state-of-the-art testing, verifying and collaborating with other experts and providing reports and testimony as needed by the courts of law.
There are two divisions: Forensic Biology/DNA and Forensic Chemistry/Controlled Substances. The Biology/DNA team examines samples, which can be minute amounts of biological material, such as saliva, blood or skin cells that may be used to develop an investigative lead, link a suspect to a victim or crime scene, confirm or disprove an account of the crime, and identify unknown victims. The Beaufort Forensic Lab also works with rape kit evidence and provides training for nurses attending to rape victims. State and national databases are accessed to compare DNA profiles (which are obtained from evidence) from other jurisdictions, and sadly, sometimes to identify human remains.
The Forensic Chemistry section works to identify illegal and dangerous unknown substances, such as poisons, illicit drugs, overdoses, and trafficking. Again, the Coroner’s Office may request information from the Lab regarding a possible overdose or poisoning victim when unknown substances have been found with the victim. In all these examples, Renita stresses they “follow the science,” staying completely neutral and unbiased. In chemistry and DNA, science speaks for itself.
Renita has a large five-foot tall whiteboard that stands by itself, and has lists and goals for the week, the month, and ongoing issues. She uses it for staff meetings, as well as a personal visual reminder of the tasks at hand. She is an example to all of us through her professionalism, persistence and pride in her work. Her whiteboard might be full, but she and her Forensics Lab team are already a valuable asset to Beaufort County citizens.

Tyres are an integral part of a vehicle. They are used in all aspects of driving and are play a huge role in safety.
There are many choices available when it comes to choosing tyres for your car and this can change the price you pay for each tyre quite drastically. Firstly, you need to consider what type of driving you do and if you want your tyres to just be suitable for winter or summer or if you are looking for an all year round tyre. Sometimes winter tyres are not great in the summer so if you do not want to have to have two sets of tyres then you are better to go for an allrounder.
You then need to decide if you want budget tyres, mid range or premium. The price will increase as the quality of tyres goes up. Choosing budget tyres does not necessarily mean that the tyres will be poor quality. In fact some budget tyres have great ratings making them a good buy. Each tyre has a rating for road noise, fuel economy, wet grip and it all depends on what type of budget tyres you go for.
Tyres are rated on wet grip, road noise and fuel economy. These ratings will help you chose a good budget tyre as some perform way better than others.

New cooking dailies are now available in Darnassus, Ironforge (Alliance), Thunderbluff and Undercity (Horde). These dailies give the same rewards as the Stormwind and Orgrimmar dailies with 1-2 cooking awards, cooking skills (1-2 points), money, experience and factional reputation towards the city in which the daily is done. It is only possible to do one Cataclysm fishing daily a day (eg if you do a daily in Darnassus you can no longer do the one in Stormwind or Ironforge though you can still do the Shattrath and Dalaran dailies).
If you can’t see the quest giver it maybe that you haven’t picked up cooking training, your level is too low (minimum level 10) or, most likely, you have either completed or have in your log book another city cooking daily.
While it would be neat if we could do all 3 main city dailies of our toon’s faction a day, the introduction of these new dailies is still helpful for lower level players (who can now do the daily in the city closest to where they are questing), may be a way of gaining a specific factional city reputation and add variety to the dailies (to those becoming a little jaded with the Stormwind or Orgrimmar dailies). Completing each of the five dailies for each city will complete the appropriate achievement (eg Let’s Do Lunch: Thunderbluff) and completing all three Let’s Do Lunch city acheivments awards A Bunch of Lunch. This adds three more cooking achievements for each faction.
The cooking dailies for each of the four cities is as follows:
Cooking dailies in Darnassus are now available from the Cooking Trainer Alegorn (Craftsmen Terrace):
- Ribs for the Sentinels – Alegorn asks you to cook the uncooked ribs he supplies and then to distribute them to 5 Sentinels. Use the stove next to the cooking trainer to cook the ribs. Sentinels (the Darnassan guards) are easily found scattered throughout the environs of the city. Once fed the Sentinels gain a 2 minute well fed buff which makes them uninterested in eating. This daily gives 2 Chef’s Awards.
- Back to Basics – Alegron wants you to pound rice in the townsfolk’s rice baskets into rice flour. The baskets can be readily found scattered in buildings through Darnassus.
- Remembering the Ancestors – Alegorn’s apprentice is out of town, so he asks you to collect blessed rice cakes from the Temple of the Moon which you must then present to the ancestors at the Shrine of the Ancestors (a large pyramid shaped tower at the graveyard just before the main entrance gate of Darnassus and to the north of the large courtyard area in front of the Warrior Terrace).
- Spice Bread Aplenty – make or get your hands on 10 pieces of spice bread (a basic recipe that requires flour and mild spices easily purchased from the cooking supplier).
- The Secret to the Perfect Kimchi - Alegorn wants you to find 8 buried Kimchi jars (the secret to perfect Kimchi) scattered beside the bases of the buildings, bushes and trees throughout the Craftsman Terrace as well as on the islands and the Tradesman Terrace in Darnassus. This daily gives 2 cooking skill points.
Daryl Rikknussun, the cooking trainer in the Bronze Kettle (in the Great Forge near the entrance to the Hall of Explorers) offers five dailies:
- Keepin’ the Haggis Flowin’- Daryl sends you to find 3 essential ingredients of Haggis: Bag of sheep innards (purchased from the meat vendor Songar Cliffbeard), 5 packets of mild spices (from any cooking supplier) and 4 sacks of oatmeal (in or outside any of the inns or suppliers in the city). Mild spices can be bought from Emrul Rikknussun in the lower floor of the Bronze Kettle. Unlike the sugar sacks in Stormwind, the oat sacks are easily found scattered outside and inside of shops in the Great Forge, the Military Hall, the Commons, the Mystic Ward and the other areas of Ironforge. The meat vendor Songar paths around the Military Ward. This daily gives 2 Chef’s Awards.
- Can’t Get Enough Spice Bread – Daryl wants you to cook 10 spice bread which is a basic recipe available at level 1 Cooking Skill. The required sacks of wheat and packets of spice can be purchased from Daryl’s brother Emrul just downstairs.
- A Fowl Shortage – Daryl wants to make Cock-a-leekie soup but doesn’t have enough chickens. Catch 6 Dun Morogh chickens running around on the flat area just outside the gates of Ironforge as well as on the road down the mountain. The chickens don’t run fast and are very easy to catch.
- A Round for the Guards – Daryl asks you to distribute Ironforge rations (haggis and Ironforge pale ale) to 6 Ironforge Guards. The Guards are easy enough to find though feeding them gives a brief 2 minute well fed buff that makes them unavailable for the quest while the buff lasts.
- I Need to Cask a Favor – Daryl wants you to go to Kharanos and bring back a cask of Drugan’s Ironforge Pale Ale (IPA) from outside the brewery. The cask is beside Ragnar Thunderbrew standing next to the entrance stairs of the Thunderbrew Distillery (the inn). Picking it up will give you a 3min Brewery Delivery buff (similar to the Goblin Parcel Runner disguise in the Dangerous Love quest line) which gives you extra speed and now brakes. Run back and hand in to Daryl. This daily gives 2 cooking skill points.
Cooking Trainer Aska Mistrunner on the third level of the main mesa (where Bain Bloodhoof and the weapon traders are and just one level down from the Wind Rider Master) also offers 5 dailies:
- Pining for nuts – Tauran cooking uses pine nuts in many dishes. Aska wants you to collect 30 pine nuts by roasting pine cones over a fire. The cones (which show on the minimap with herb finding skills) are at the base of the pine trees around the edges of the different levels on the mesas. Each cone produces 5 nuts.
- Corn Mash – Aska wants you to grind 5 bowls of corn kernels into cornmeal. The small woven grass bowls inside the buildings scattered throughout Thunderbluff. This daily gives 2 Chef’s Awards.
- Magic Mushrooms – Aska sends you to gather 6 “magic” mushrooms http://www.wowhead.com/item=69994 – very small delicious mushroom caps underneath the bigger mushrooms in the Pools of Vision in the cave at the Spirit Rise.
- Mulgore Spice Bread – make 5 mulgore spice bread by adding Aska’s special spices to 5 regular spice bread you have already cooked (need flour & mild spices).
- Perfectly Pickled Portions – Aska asks you to obtain four ingredients to make a perfect dish from4 huts around Thunderbluff. The first two are on the main rise one level down from Aska: Succulent Sweet Potato (in the Nan Mistrunner’s Fruit and Vegetable stand, 2 huts south of the hut with the bridge to the Elder Rise) and Savoury Spices (in Komin Winterhoof the Herbalism Trainer’s hut which is on the south side of the bridge hut to the Elder Rise). The last two are on the main rise on the same level as Aska: Fresh Caught Fish (hanging from the ceiling in the back of Kah Mistrunner the Fishing Trainer’s hut on the west side of the bridge hut to the Elder Rise) and Freshly Hunted Fowl (hanging on the west side of Kaga Mistrunner the meat vendor’s hut directly opposite from Aska). This daily gives 2 cooking skill points.
And if you have a cast iron stomach you can do the five different dailies offered by Cooking Trainer Eunice Burch (in the Trade Sector) in Undercity.
- Roach Coach – Eunice asks you to collect 20 plump cockroaches from traps around Undercity for her sister Audrey’s Thrice-Spiced Crunchy Stew. Both the traps (small wooden boxes hidden in, around or behind objects) and Audrey are in the inner ring of the canals. This daily gives 2 Chef’s Awards.
- Would You Like Some Flies with That – Eunice wants you to gather for her 25 bloated flies from the meat wagons. The 5-6 wagons are distributed around Undercity (eg in the Apothecarium, the Rogues Quarter, the Magic Quarter etc). Each wagon has 4-6 pieces of rotting meat scattered on the ground beneath it and each piece of meat yields 2-5 bloated flies. Eunice plans to fatten up spiders with the flies, which will fatten up the frogs which will … well, lets just say its reminiscent of the song “There was an old woman who swallowed a fly”
- Escargot A Go-Go – Eunice wants you to find 8 Brightwater snails in Brightwater Lake, the large lake northeast of Undercity. To make it easier to find the snails use a targeting macro (see below). This daily gives 2 cooking skill points.
- Fungus Among Us – Eunice asks you to collect 12 sewer cap mushrooms – small orange mushrooms that grow in the Undercity sewer. The sewer entrance (47:39) is the double high stairs against the wall of the outer ring, halfway between the apothecarium and the war quarter.
- Lily, Oh Lily - Pick ten Stillwater lilies for Eunice from the edges of Stillwater Pond northwest of Undercity, past Coldheath Manor. The lilies are the flat, bronzy yellow water lily pads on the surface of the water just in from the water’s edge.
The cooking dailies are easily completed with worthwhile rewards. Incidentally, they give a little bit more insight into the dietary preferences of the different factional groups (from pale ale and haggis for sturdy Dwarves; to rice, kimchi and octopus for the Night Elf; cider, pumpkin & cookies in Stormwind; prickly pear, swine bellies and rice for the Orc; pine nuts, corn meal and savoury spices for the Tauran; and cockroaches, flies and snails for the Undead) as well as some cultural, philanthropic and religious practices. Perhaps a gentle reminder that people “do not live by bread alone” and that a reflective person is not only enriched by the cooking customs of their own and others traditions but also acknowledges the Provider of all good things.
Example of a targeting Marcos (create through computer icon, macros or Esc key, macros). Once created place the macro on a toolbar.

Understanding Sacrificial Offerings
The chapters in the Torah which detail the practice of animal sacrifice in the Temple are some of the most difficult for a 21st century individual to understand. As such practices have completely disappeared from civilized society we tend to view them as cruel, primitive and superstitious. They seem incompatible with other humane and progressive commandments of the Torah, which were revolutionary when the Torah was first given and today form the basis for not only a vibrant Judaism but for the moral and ethical standards of most of the rest of the world as well.
Writing in the early 16th century and incorporating the words of Maimonides, who preceded him by several hundred years, Abarbanel provides a perspective on sacrifices that we can appreciate today. The primary reason for the necessity of these rituals was to assist the nascent Jewish nation in believing in the existence and oneness of G-d and to draw closer to Him by following His directives. Human perfection can be more effectively realized by attaining knowledge and faith through prayer, enlightenment and adherence to the Torah’s other precepts than by burning animals on an altar. However, the Jewish People were commanded to devote themselves to the worship of G-d, and the prevailing form of worship at that time was through animal sacrifice in specially-designated temples. G-d determined that the Jewish People would not be able to easily abandon such a well-established universal custom. By shifting the mode of worship from polytheistic paganism to the worship of one G-d, idolatry could be eliminated without radically interfering with practices already familiar to the people. In fact, the enormous detail of the many differences between the various offerings symbolizes many fundamental precepts of man’s responsibilities to himself and his Creator.
The first type of animal offering is the Olah, or Elevation Offering, which is completely consumed on the Altar. This represents the uniting of the soul with G-d. Just as the animal’s body is united with the flames, so too is man’s eternal soul united with G-d after death. This offering demonstrates that our sole purpose is to devote ourselves completely to the service of G-d. Since it symbolizes man’s Divinely-created non-physical soul, material man has no share in it and cannot partake of it
The second type of offering is the Sin Offering. This offering functions as one aspect of the atonement process that is required of one who transgresses Torah commandments. It encourages the transgressor to be more vigilant and to consider the consequences of his actions. It functions as a monetary fine as well, since the transgressor must provide the animal. Even if one is unsure whether he transgressed he still must bring an offering. The procedures of the offering differ for unintentional transgressions committed by the High Court or the High Priest, as their positions involve greater responsibility.
The third type of offering is the Peace Offering, which is brought by people who are thanking G-d for His numerous favors — for granting us the Land of Israel and for other acts of miraculous Divine intervention. It can represent gratitude for a past favor or act as a way of beseeching G-d to help us in the future. A festive meal is part of the offering. The one who brings the animal and the priests who conduct the rituals are allowed to consume part of the offering as they all join in thanking G-d for His blessings. The internal organs are burned on the Altar, as they are symbols of man’s internal thoughts. It is as if the owner is saying that he is pouring out his inner soul before G-d.
All of these offerings always consist of the most expensive animals: cattle, sheep and goats. They are also accompanied by the finest wheat flour, oils and wines. Here the Torah is emphasizing that the finest products of Israel depend on G-d’s blessing.
In summary, the Elevation Offering is ideological in nature. It symbolizes the immortality of the soul and its intimate connection with G-d. The Sin Offerings teach the importance of personal vigilance and accountability, the just reward for those who fear and worship G-d and the punishment for those who defy Him. At the same time, it is essential for that person to understand that his sins can be pardoned. Otherwise, there is the possibility that he will lapse even more. Finally, the Peace Offerings illustrate our faith in Divine providence, in our recognition that G-d is the ultimate source of our material blessings.

In December 2019, Professor Kurt Paulsen received an email from an old contact at Thirty Tigers. This is the company that represents Trampled By Turtles, a beloved bluegrass/folk-rock band from Duluth. In 2013, Kurt worked with several students to make a music video for TbT. Due to the success of the last video (now at over a million views and 4,500 likes) Thirty Tigers was looking for another video to promote the solo debut of Dave Simonett (lead singer of TbT). The timeline was aggressive and there were a number of logistical obstacles, but the answer on our end was an immediate yes.
A cross-disciplinary group of students was quickly assembled to take on the project for college credit in a special topics class. The group ranged from freshmen to seniors and included students representing three majors:
Media Arts: Alec Mueller, Anya Schroeder, Caleb Schilling, Franklin Selvey, and Samantha Pollard
Studio Art: Mindy Pitzner
Graphic Design: Lex Wencl
This student group had less than three months to create the video for Dave Simonett’s single By the Light of the Moon. They wanted to follow the success of the first video with another stop motion piece, and their plan was ambitious. To help bring their vision to life before the fast approaching deadline, students from Jason Jaspersen’s 3D Design class assisted in set design and set building. Take a look at the final video, which was released in late March:
The video was included in a Rolling Stone article about Simonett’s solo album. It was mentioned as “a stop-motion music video that swells with emotion.” While the writing is the foundation for that emotional punch, the feeling is deepened by the beautiful set and character design and intensified by the lighting and camera movement. We are so proud of what the students achieved in each area of this production, and are excited that it can now be shared!
This project embodies so much of what we’re trying to do in the media arts department, which is a place where filmmakers, artists, and designers come together to make things. To close this write-up, here are some thoughts from a few of the students who eloquently describe their collaborative experiences on this positive and inspirational creative team:

By understanding the manufacturing process and key features of popular replica handbag brands, buyers can make more informed decisions. It is crucial to scrutinize sellers,
louis vuitton outlet read customer reviews, and utilize secure payment methods for added protection against scams. Ultimately, buyers should consider their priorities and assess whether the benefits outweigh the drawbacks when purchasing wholesale replica handbags. Replica handbags have become increasingly popular in the fashion market, and the wholesale replica handbags industry has grown significantly as a result.
Gucci, Louis Vuitton, Chanel, Prada, and Hermes are among the top names in the industry. They offer a wide range of designs and styles that closely resemble their original counterparts. Fashion enthusiasts can enjoy the luxurious look and feel of these replica handbags at a fraction of the price.
In fashion, counterfeit goods are known as knock offs. These counterfeit goods are usually sold on markets and street corners. I purchased 5 bags and pay with Western Union, but one of them has sold out, and then the seller do the different refund back to me with Western Union.
It seems the local police do nothing more than scare them off as they move to the next block & lay their products out again. It's illegal because they are stealing the brand name of someone else. Companies try to make their brands stand for something (style, quality, durability). Knockoff items not only affect a company's sales, they can undermine the brand. Not every woman out there can afford to spend $1,500 and upwards for a tote bag or any bag.
Alcoholic beverages with 24% alcohol or less are not subject to limitations in checked bags. Musical instruments must undergo screening when transported as carry-on or in checked baggage. Musical instruments transported as carry-on require a physical inspection at the security checkpoint. Inform the TSA officer if your instrument requires special care and handling. I strongly recommand, true to pictures, very very Nice replica, I Will surely re order!
So i'd really like to know if any of you guys know of any forums such as this that deals with handbags. If the bags are counterfeit, even if you bought them for your personal use and not to resell them, they are contraband and you have no lawful claim to them. Instead of spending too much money on a bunch of accessories that will go out of style soon anyway, you can use knockoff items that will work no matter what the occasion is. Designers are prolific with their creation of clothing and accessories, which means you would have to spend thousands of dollars just to keep up with the latest items. I've got a lot of replicas from them and it gave me more reason to believe that they're truly the best replica website online.

Adding slots to an utterance is simple, but how do you make them come to life? This article will discuss how to identify a slot, create a new slot type, and alter the payout percentage of a slot machine. In addition, you’ll learn how to make your own slot machine sounds and games. Let’s start! Here are some examples. But don’t forget: slots don’t always pay out! There are other uses for slots, too.
Identifying a slot
Identifying a slot is an important cognitive skill. It refers to a certain feature that the speaker of a speech is known to have. For example, a slot may indicate a short sleeve or any other characteristic. Slots can be of two types, static and dynamic. If you know what each type of slot means, you can recognize the appropriate word in a specific situation. Learn more about the different types of slots to use in speech recognition software.
Creating a slot type
Creating a slot type in Vue is just like creating a content type in WordPress. The key difference between creating a content type and creating a slot is its name attribute. You can use regular expressions to map flight numbers to specific slot types, or you can use regex patterns to match words in utterances. After you have created your slot type, you can use it in your application. But, before you begin, you’ll need to know how to create a template.
Changing the payout percentage of a slot machine
Changing the payout percentage of a slot is an option available to slot manufacturers. The procedure depends on the manufacturer and the machine’s software, which is typically stored on an EPROM. Other types of electronic memory, such as NVRAM, CD-ROM, and DVDs, may also store the software. This process requires a lot of time, and some jurisdictions, like New Jersey, will require the manufacturer to have a gaming control board official present during the adjustment.
Adding slots to an utterance
When defining utterances in R, one can add slots to represent different types of information. The slots represent a specific piece of information, such as the type of sleeve that a speaker has or the number of rooms in a building. There are two different types of slots: predefined ones and custom ones. Adding slots to an utterance makes it possible to map a custom value to a word.
Adding slots to a web component
Adding slots to a web component is a common pattern that enables you to control content that is placed in a web component. The slot element fires an event when its content changes. This event does not contain any useful data, but it’s purely for observability. Knowing when the content changes allows you to implement simple tricks or do more complex work. You can update the listeners to the event.

At Christmas time there was a man who looked so out of place,
As people rushed about him at a hurried sort of pace.
He stared at all the Christmas lights, the tinsel everywhere,
The shopping mall, Santa Claus, with children gathered near.
The mall was packed with shoppers who were going to and fro,
some with smiles and some with frowns and some too tired to go.
They rested on the benches or they hurried on their way,
to fight the crowd for purchases to carry home that day.
The music from a stereo was playing loud and clear,
of Santa Claus and snowmen and funny-nosed reindeer.
He heard the people talk about the good times on the way,
of parties, fun and food galore and gifts exchanged that day.
“I’d like to know what’s going on.” the man was heard to say,
“There seems to be some sort of celebration on the way.”
“And would you tell me who this is, all dressed in red and white?
“And why are children asking him about a special night?
The answer came in disbelief, “I can’t believe my ear.”
“I can’t believe that you don’t know that Christmas time is here.
“The time when Santa Claus comes around with gifts for girls and boys,
“When they’re asleep on Christmas Eve, he leaves them books and toys.
“The man you see in red and white is Santa Claus, so sly,
“The children love his joyful laugh and twinkle in his eye.
“His gift-packed sleigh is pulled along by very small reindeer,
“As he flies quickly through the air, while darting there and here.
“The children learn of Santa Claus while they are still quite small,
“When Christmas comes he is the most important one of all!”
The Stranger hung his head in shame, he closed a nail-pierced hand,
His body shook in disbelief, he did not understand.
A shadow crossed his stricken face, his voice was low but clear:
After all these years, they still don’t know ……. ”
And Jesus shed a tear.

Multiple award-winning film director, Obi Emelonye has completed work on a new television series, ‘Crazy, Lovely, Cool’.
The production, whose trailer is currently trending on You Tube, was shot on the campus of University of Nigeria Nsukka and stars renowned actors like Enyinna Nwigwe, Adesua Etomi, Uru Eke, Zynell Zuh, Anthony Monjaro and Lorenzo Menakaya.
Deriving its title from the emotions and moods synonymous with activities on campuses, the series is hour-long in duration and was shot in conjunction with Trace TV.
Packed with comedy, romance and valour, ‘Crazy, Lovely, Cool’ brings to the fore the Emelonye’s signature of quality while exploring the intrigues of adolescent life as witnessed through the eyes of university undergraduates and their lecturers in a typical African university.
The series which is equally soaked in music is however not about renowned faces and names in the Nigerian film industry as it also showcases an array of talented artistes who have been tested and confirmed.
This fact aside, ‘Crazy, Lovely, Cool’ is also re-awakening the hour-long TV series culture, which has lately taken a back seat for thirty-minute productions.
On the other hand, industry analysts who have seen some scenes in the production said the high technical details, from picture quality, story line to acting skills exhibited in the series will clearly give ‘Crazy, Lovely, Cool’ a mileage ahead of its contemporaries.
It will be recalled that aside using a technical crew from United Kingdom, the producers spared no resources in making sure that the entire production team was camped together for three months to avoid disruptions in recording.
“We did not want any distractions or disruptions, so we had to bear the cost to do that, because recent revelations have shown that such interruptions affect quality of production”, said Gordon Irole, one of the production coordinators at the location.

Double sliding doors make it easy to access outdoors. Pocket Sliding Doors – The system features a pocket door system that allows the door to slide completely into the wall, providing it out of sight when completely open. For spaces you want to use as much wall space as it would take, this is the type of door you desire. Pocket sliding doors are very popular for smaller rooms or smaller homes where space is very limited.
Multi-Panel Sliding Doors – Multiple panels are used in these doors, i.e. two or more moving panels, and one or more fixed panels.

The Memorial Museum of Jovan Cvijić is set up in the house in which the great geographer and scholar lived and worked. It is located at Kopitareva Gradina, in more than a century old cultural and historical nucleus in the very heart of the city. The house was built in 1905, after Jovan Cvijić’s drawings and in accordance with his wishes. Cvijić’s house, together with the surrounding garden noted for its beauty and rare plants, still reflects the spirit of the early 20th century.
Results of the extraordinary research expeditions undertaken by this outstanding explorer and traveller, who was led by the motto of his youth: “To study on foot and not in the cabinet”, left their imprint on the atmosphere of his home. As a man with a sophisticated taste for art and modernity, Jovan Cvijić had the entire interior of his home designed by Dragutin Inkiostri Medenjak. Every piece of furniture, painted walls with moulded decorations and every detail conformed to the style of Art Nouveau, very popular in Europe at that time, underlined by elements of Serbian traditional applied art.
The drawing room and the room of Jovan Cvijić’s wife, Ljubica, have preserved their original appearance, whereas the remaining rooms house the exhibition about the life, travels and research of this great.
Jovan Cvijić was a scientist, reputable geographer, professor and Rector of the University of Belgrade, President of the Serbian Royal Academy, honorary doctor and member of the oldest European academies and universities.
He was a contemporary, often participant and witness of the tumultuous events in the process of the development of the modern Serbian state at the turn of the 20th century: the dynastic change at the Serbian throne, the formation of political parties and struggles among them, the implementation of national legislation in the fields of economy, education and culture, the reshaping of the Serbian Learned Society into the Serbian Royal Academy as well as the transformation of the Belgrade Great School into the University of Belgrade, the Tariff War with Austria-Hungary, the Austro-Hungarian annexation of Bosnia and Herzegovina, the Balkan Wars, the First World War and the Peace Conference at Versailles and the Unification of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes into one common state.
Cvijić organised excursions and engaged in scientific work, leaving behind a substantial and diverse bibliography, for the most part in foreign languages, maps, atlases, and geographic charts of the Balkan peninsula, ethnographic maps, notes and drawings, dedicating entire editions to the phenomenon of Balkan house types, national customs and psychological traits of the peoples of different cultural zones of the peninsula.
It is because of his merit, that the technical terms for karst forms have been borrowed from Serbian into the science of karst at a global level – uvala, polje, ponor, vrtača, karst..
We invite you to take a look at the objects displayed in Museum of Jovan Cvijić.
You can view other objects owned by Belgrade City Museum’s other collections and institutions in our digital depot.

What is a proxy server?
A proxy server is a computer that acts as a middleman in the internet traffic flow from a device to the websites or services being used. Your internet traffic is forwarded to the final location when you access the internet through a proxy server, which receives it first.To get more news about
, you can visit pyproxy.com official website.
A proxy server’s main function is to serve as a bridge between your computer or other device and the internet, enhancing the privacy and security of your online activity. Your IP address can be hidden, and privacy and security are improved, using proxy servers.
Proxy vs VPN
Now that we know a little bit of what a proxy server and VPN are, it’s time to learn their differences and which one is the best for your data.
When it comes to security, both a proxy server and a VPN can offer some level of protection, but a VPN is generally considered to be more secure.
Although it can give you some degree of privacy and security, a proxy server cannot encrypt your internet connection. This implies that third parties, such as your internet service provider or an adversary on a public Wi-Fi network, may still intercept and see your online activities.
On the other hand, a VPN creates a secure and encrypted tunnel by encrypting all data exchanged between your device and the VPN server. Because of this, it is considerably more challenging for someone to spy on your online activities or intercept your important data. A VPN can also shield you from potential online dangers like viruses and hacking attempts.
In conclusion, a VPN is a preferable option if you’re worried about the security of your online activities and want to safeguard your critical information. However, a proxy server can be sufficient if all you need to do is conceal your IP address and get around geographical limitations.
Your computer’s connection to the internet is managed by a proxy server. Your IP address can be hidden, and it can appear as though another place is where you are accessing the internet. However, because your data is not encrypted, your ISP and possibly other users of the network can still see what you are doing online.
Contrarily, a VPN encrypts all of the information that is transferred between your device and the VPN server. Due to the fact that nobody, not even your ISP, can see what you are doing online, this offers a higher level of privacy. A VPN also gives you the option to appear to be in another country, enhancing your privacy and security.
In conclusion, while proxies can have certain privacy advantages, a VPN is a more safe and private solution because it encrypts your data and offers a higher level of anonymity.
The connection speed between a proxy and a VPN is another significant distinction. While some VPNs offer speeds of 50 Mbps or more, you could struggle to achieve even one megabit per second when using a public proxy server.
Even though a VPN’s encryption may increase latency by a few milliseconds, most people won’t notice it unless they are top-tier streamers or professional gamers.
Using a VPN can occasionally even make your connection faster. The majority of significant suppliers make use of a global network of data centres. Therefore, a VPN connection might be quicker if the site doesn’t use a CDN or if the CDN’s nearest data centre is far away.

This is another of the many “Jack Tales” that have been collected from the hills and hollows of the southern Appalachians. First brought from the British highlands years ago, primarily by the Scots-Irish settlers, they migrated with the people down the mountain corridors where they survived as oral tales passed from generation to generation, until they were “collected” by early folklorists with their pad and pencil. Although meant to be “told” tales, not read, they offer a glimpse into a long ago life. Jack, known as a “trickster” has many an adventure, and usually comes out on top of the situation, often based on his native wit, often by dumb-luck alone, and often too by a little magic thrown in. Enjoy
Jack was a young fella that lived on a farm with his mama. Jack’s mother got pretty ornery now and then and tended to pester Jack a lot, but other than that they were doing pretty well. They grew some crops and raised some livestock and make a pretty good living. But Jack did a little trapping on the side just to get some extra food to eat once in awhile. One day Jack was out checking his traps. In a little old box trap he found a small bird. It was too tiny to bother with, wouldn’t have hardly made a good bite to eat, so he was going to let it go. But before he did, the bird spoke to him. “Please let me go,” said the little bird. “If you do, I will give you something very good.”
Well like I said, Jack was going to let the bird go anyway, but why look that offer of something good go on by he thought to himself. So Jack told the bird that was a deal. Jack took the bird from the trap and tossed it gently into the air. The bird flew off, and Jack sort of figured that he wasn’t going to get anything good after all, but in only a moment or so, the little bird flew back. The bird was carrying a little bitty bag, and it dropped the bag right on Jack’s shoulder. “Just take the bag,” the little bird spoke again, “and say ‘Two come out.’ Good things will happen. When you’ve had enough, say ’Two go in,” With that the little bird flew away.
Jack didn’t know if he hardly believed what the bird told him, so he decided to try it out. He set that itty bitty bag right in front of him and said real loud, “Two come out.” Quick as a flash a table and two chairs came out of that bag, and in another instant the table was covered with good things to eat. Jack sat down in one of those chairs and proceeded to eat his fill. When he couldn’t eat another speck, and the table was still full of food, he said “Two go in.” Just as quick as it came, the food all disappeared and the table and chairs disappeared right back into that little bitty bag. Jack couldn’t wait to go home and show his mother what the little bird had given him, so he started right off. But on the way he passed a house where an old man and his children lived. Jack couldn’t resist the urge to brag a little about what he had, so he stomped right up on the porch and told the fella about this special little bag. “Two come out,” Jack hollered and just like before the table and chairs and all that food appeared, and they all
ate a whole bunch. Jack didn’t eat quite so much this time. When they had had enough, and all the others had left the table, Jack whispered “Two go in,“ because he didn’t want these folks to know about that. Then the old man told him to come on out in the yard and look at his garden and his barn. Jack set his little bag down on the porch and went on off with the fella. Real quick like, one of the daughters took a look at that bag and hurried in the house and sewed up another one that looked just like it. Before Jack got back she switched bags with his.
Well after a bit, Jack went on home. He was all excited telling his mother all about the bag and the food and all. Of course she didn’t believe a word of it. When Jack said, Two come out,” and nothing happened, she didn’t believe him a whole lot more. She really hollered at Jack for not bringing home anything to eat.
Well Jack got to figuring what had happened, and figured out that that family where he stopped to visit must have stolen his real bag. But he didn’t know quite what to do about it. A few days later, when he was checking his traps again, he spotted that little bird sitting in a tree. So he told the bird all about what had happened. After a bit the bird flew off and brought Jack back another little bitty bag. “Just like the other bag,” the bird told him. “Say ’Two come out’ and ’Two go in’. With that the bird flew away.
Jack couldn’t wait to try out this bag, so he set it down there in front of him and shouted out, “Two come out.” Before the words were hardly out of his mouth, two little men came out of that bag. They were carrying big sticks, and they proceeded to beat Jack up and down and all over. They beat him bumpy.” He was trying so hard to protect himself that he plum forgot to say the words to make them get back in the bag. Finally he hollered out, “Two go in.” Quick as a flash those little men quit beating Jack and got back in the bag.” Jack couldn’t hardly believe those two thugs were really in that itty bitty bag. He rubbed himself and took a few minutes to clear his head, then he headed straight for the house where that old man and his family lived.
Jack didn’t let on he knew they had his other bag. He just told them he had a brand new bag. The old man asked Jack to go take a look at his cows, so Jack he just set the bag down on the porch and went along. Soon as Jack and the old man were out of sight, the two sons took that bag into the house and quickly said, “Two come out.” Well weren’t they surprised when those two little men with the sticks came out and started walloping everyone in sight. They were all getting beat so bad, they forgot all about how to make it stop. Pretty soon the old man heard all the commotion, so he and Jack hurried on back to the house. The old man ran on in and he got beat up pretty good too. “Make them stop, make them stop,” they were all crying out. “Well, maybe I will and maybe I won’t,” answered Jack. “Maybe if you gave me back my other bag I might.”
One of the sons managed to slink off finally and in no time at all he was back with the first little bag. “Two go in,” Jack shouted out loud, and in a flash the two little men disappeared back into the bag. With that, Jack picked up both bags, carefully noting which one was which, and headed on for home. Well he took that bag with the two little men and hid it in the barn. Then he took the other one into the house and told his mother to come take a look.
“Oh what dang fool thing are you going to try now?” she bellowed. “I bet this one won’t do anymore than that other one did.” With that, needless to say she was mighty surprised when Jack set the bag down and said, “Two come out.” Out of that bag came the table and the two chairs, and that table just filled up with all the kinds of food you can imagine. Jack and his mother sat there and ate and ate and marveled at it all. When they were done, Jack whispered, “Two go in,” because he didn’t want his mother to know about that, and the table and chairs and food disappeared from sight.
Well Jack and his mother ate pretty well after that. They didn’t call on that bag all the time, just once in awhile, but it sure was nice. But one day, his mother was out in the barn doing something, and she found that other bag. “Well now,” she said to herself, “that ungrateful son of mine didn’t tell me he had two bags. I guess I’ll see what’s in this one.” With that she put the bag out in the barnyard and said, “Two come out.”
Well she had been surprised when the table and all the food came out of the other bag. She was even more surprised when those two little men with their sticks came out of this one. And she was beyond surprised when those two fellas started in on beating her bumpy, up and down and all around.
Lucky for her Jack was just coming into the other end of the barn and saw her with the bag. “Stop them, stop them,” she hollered to Jack when she saw him. “Well maybe I will, and maybe I won’t,” said Jack. “Maybe if you promise to quit being so ornery and treat me nicer I just might stop them.” “I will, I will,” hollered his mother. “You promise?” asked Jack. “Yes, yes, I promise. Now make them stop.”
“Two go in,” Jack said sort of quiet like, and quick as can be those two little men were back in the bag. As his mother limped off to the house to recuperate, Jack took that bag and hid it again way up high in the hay loft where he knew no one would ever go looking.
Then he went and got that other bag and fixed his mother a real nice supper. Except for once in awhile, the old woman remembered her promise to Jack and was just as nice as can be, and the two of them are getting along right well down there on the farm. At least they were the last time I was down that way.

'Paris à contre jour' is an ongoing project aiming to share the essence of locations across Paris through a series of short black and white films. Film-maker Mischa Harmeijer told me why he launched the project and what he is hoping to achieve.
The films are the work of both Mischa Harmeijer and Sophie Queyroi who together form the Pongh! video production company. These brief snippets of Paris are featured on a dedicated website, but their work does not end there. Together they worked on a short (silent) film that was selected at this year's Cannes Film Festival.
Their Paris project stemmed from a reflection on French media, which Mischa felt "lacked humanity and originality." Believing that the media's intellectualisation of the city creates an emotional distance, he wanted to make a different kind of journalism, "based on human sensitivity", but above all to create "something the viewers will like and appreciate."
All of their work is in black and white only, "an excellent vehicle for transmitting a deep emotion, filled with nostalgia" points out Mischa. He also believes it gives the films a certain timelessness, reflecting a city that often seems unsure which era it is living in.
The website currently features around a dozen films, the locations seemingly chosen at random. How is this choice made I wonder. "I never choose a location, the locations choose me," replies Mischa, "I just need to need to connect myself and the rest happens automatically. Even when something has already been filmed a thousand times, we can still create an original point of view."
The films, little more than a series of barely moving but perfectly framed snapshots, quickly communicate the atmosphere and nature of the location, but the range is perhaps not sufficiently wide as yet. This is still a very familiar Paris, a preserved place of calm and beauty, backed by some rather jaunty music from Bartok. I would be happy to be taken to a more obscure Paris, somewhere more uneasy and less welcoming!

I love it, but they’ll never let me use it
You’ve just been to a plain language workshop, you’ve picked up some tips and tricks, and you’re keen to try them at work. But you feel your manager, peer reviewer, or organisation won’t accept ‘this kind of writing’. In our Business Writing workshops, participants sometimes say things like, ‘I think this would work well, but I won’t be allowed to use it.’
Here are five ways to reverse this situation and make sure your plain language skills work for you, your organisation, and your readers.
Are you sure your organisation doesn’t want you to write using plain language? After all, it’s just sent you on a plain language writing workshop! Remember that you’re basing your opinion on what’s happened before — think about what your organisation wants to happen from now on.
To check, ask those who organised the training:
If you find out these answers, you’ll understand how you can contribute to a consistent writing approach in your organisation instead of assuming you can’t. Your organisation will get its return on investment from the workshop — reader-friendly documents, efficient processes, and better productivity.
Your management might also realise that it hasn’t yet communicated how it wants the rest of the team to write — something it can easily fix.
Look at your organisation’s writing style guide to see how it wants you to write. Many style guides champion plain language and include examples and help. A style guide supports you (objectively) to write in the style your organisation wants.
Often, writers don’t know their organisation is trying to achieve a consistent, reader-friendly style — they write according to what they see others around them doing or ‘how it’s always been done’. A style guide also means you don’t have to guess or write a certain way just because your manager or peer reviewer likes that style.
If your organisation doesn’t have a style guide, focus on the answers you get from asking why it organised the plain language workshops. It might become obvious that a style guide would help your organisation to continue the momentum gained from a writing workshop. It would also work towards achieving a consistent writing approach with plain language at its core.
Does your manager or peer reviewer know to expect clear, reader-friendly documents from you now? If not, they might baulk at a document that hits their desk with a different writing style than what they’re used to. So talk to them. Let them know what to expect.
Discuss the workshop you’ve just done, what concepts will work for the documents you write, and what you’ll be doing from now on. Show them what plain language looks like and how it works for everyone.
It’s also good to explain the ‘why’. When people know why you’re doing something, they tend to be more accepting. For example, you might explain that you’re going to start structuring your audit reports with the main finding first. This will mean readers won’t have to trawl your document and find it buried in paragraph six.
You know that readers want the most important info — the stuff that matters to them — up front. That way they’re more likely to act on the finding and do what you want them to do. Your manager or peer reviewer should be impressed!
The Write Plain Language Standard provides a set of 10 statements to assess whether a document is reader-friendly and easy to understand.
Use the Standard to explain the concepts you learned in your workshop to your manager or peer reviewer. For example, statement 3 — The structure of the document is clear and logical to the reader — would support your reason to restructure the audit reports we mentioned earlier.
Like a style guide, the Standard provides objective support for why you’re using plain language concepts. You can use it to point out the features of a clear, reader-friendly document without it sounding like your personal opinion.
The Standard will also complement a style guide that promotes plain language.
The Plain Language Act 2022 is a compelling reason for your organisation to use and continue developing the skills that you learned in your workshop. The Act requires plain language in government documents and websites written for the general public.
The writing must be:
When New Zealanders can quickly and easily find, understand, and use information:
Not a government agency? The private sector can also use the momentum and spirit of the Act to achieve this same trust, efficiency, and willingness from its clients. Whether you need to comply with an Act or not, your plain language skills are key to creating a world where clear communication helps everyone.
You’ve now got five ways to make sure your plain language skills work for your organisation. Use them to spark those ‘aha’ moments, transform thinking from doubt to certainty, and take your organisation to ‘we love it — and we use it!’
Download the free Write Plain Language Standard below. You’ll be added to our mailing list. You can unsubscribe any time.

Andrei Sofian of Rematholding Co. S.R.L. in Romania shares with us his journey to date into the world of scrap recycling
It is hard to state when my passion for scrap recycling started. I believe it has been in my blood since childhood and I know for sure that I have inherited it from my father, Mihai Sofian. Ever since I was born, he has been active in this field and I’ve always perceived him to be full of enthusiasm for his job.
When I was in high school, I used to go with him to visit scrap yards during the weekends and to see the mountains of ferrous, non-ferrous and plastic scrap. He knew every single square metre of the work sites. I did not understand much at that age, but I was fascinated by what I saw and my attention was captured especially by the machinery that transformed “garbage” into raw material for direct industry use.
The year 2010 was a decisive one for me as I made up my mind to follow my father’s path into the scrap world. I went to study at the University of Cambridge in the UK, from which I graduated with a Masters in Civil, Structures and Environmental Engineering. During my studies, I completed an internship at a recycling plant in Germany, my first serious contact with this domain.
In 2014, I decided to join Rematholding Co. S.R.L., the company founded by my father. It represents one of the largest recycling companies in Romania, with more than 500 employees and handling all types of materials such as ferrous, non-ferrous, cables, plastics, WEEE, cardboard, ELVs and catalytic converters. Rematholding opened in 2003 and now incorporates more than 15 production facilities across Romania. Moreover, it is a BIR Gold Member, a BMR member and the first Romanian company to be WEEELABEX certified.
In order to learn how to operate our business profitably with the help of experienced people, I started working at a facility situated 60 km from Bucharest. It represented a brand new Rematholding investment costing over Euro 10m – an enterprise set up with the purpose of growing the company’s plastics recycling branch. It comprised several installations for sorting municipal waste, for washing and for granulating plastics, and a plastics shredder for producing flakes. My job included various tasks such as sorting plastics, performing lab tests, and supervising the washing and granulation lines. The non-ferrous business and how to dismantle ELV and WEEE scrap opened up new areas of interest for me.
After a year, I returned to Bucharest where I received excellent training at another metals and plastics processing facility to further improve my skills. I had to supervise the cable recycling line and to increase the performance of the sink-float equipment that separated the Zorba from the shredder. The second of these assignments was much more difficult owing to the fact that the technology used sand instead of water, and so it was more challenging to study the process.
Afterwards, I joined the development and commercial department. My first undertaking was the catalytic converter business where, together with our hard-working technicians, I designed a lab and developed/constructed the necessary machinery with a view to recycling this material stream. In just a short time, we managed to become a main player in this field on the Romanian market.
Meanwhile, other projects have been successfully completed by our team, such as recovering gold and silver from electronic scrap, recovering slags and drosses, and trading primary metals.
I hugely enjoy trading ferrous and non-ferrous metals as well as plastics, negotiating with new partners and following the fluctuations on the LME. I am continually on the move as I attend conferences and exhibitions and also visit partners based both domestically and abroad. I am also very excited about the possibility of introducing new plants that will expand our company’s horizons.
I always attend the BIR Conventions with the aim of maintaining constant relationships with people from all over the world and finding business opportunities. Joining the BIR Young Traders Group offers me a chance to hear about different ideas and to build new partnerships as this organisation consists of people who are of a similar age to me and who work in the same field.
I am still at the beginning of my career and so I am still trying to accumulate as much knowledge as possible in this domain. I am happy that I have chosen this road and every single day brings unique experiences and challenges.

In my last post, I reviewed the amazingly inexpensive DFocus follow focus. When I first heard about the DFocus, my excitement about the price was somewhat tempered by the daunting prospect of outfitting all my lenses with expensive gear rings. After all, what good is a follow focus if the lenses you are pulling focus on are not geared to use one? I looked into many available lens gear options -- the $165 Chrosziel Flexi Gear ring, the $65 Zacuto ZipGear, the $45 Redrock microLensGear (which I believe is actually a reduction in price from the time I was looking at them) -- but on cost alone, none of them lived up to the standards of a truly frugal DP. The least expensive gears I could find were those sold by Jag35 and made by the maker of the DFocus itself, the $30, one size fits all DGear. These prices may not seem all that outrageous if you have one zoom lens that needs a gear ring, but if you have a whole bunch of prime lenses (the subject of a future post, I'm sure) and a couple zooms to outfit, you can see how the cost could escalate quite quickly to potentially many times that of the follow focus, or in some cases, even the lenses themselves. Just as the frugal DP doesn't believe in paying more for a follow focus than on the camera it is to be used with, he also doesn't believe in paying more for gear rings than a follow focus. Or, to put it another way, let me quote The Frugal DP's First Rule of Frugality: "A Good Camera Package is a Proportionate Camera Package." Actually I made that up just now, but it sounds good, and I'm sure I will be coming back to it again and again.
I was just about resigned to the fact that I was going to have to spend several hundred dollars on gear rings for my ten or so lenses, when I came across a post on the Cinema5D forum mentioning cheap lens gears. They turned out to be the lens gears included with the "PROAIM" follow focuses from India that you've no doubt seen for sale on eBay. They are also sold through the website thecinecity.com. I wasn't interested in the follow focus, but it turns out you can order just the gear rings, if you are so inclined, for a mere $12 each. You will probably not see just a set of the gear rings for sale on eBay, nor on The CineCity website, but if you contact the seller of the follow focus on eBay, or email The CineCity at [email protected], they will sell them to you.
The rings are available in six different sizes, meant to fit around lenses with diameters of 55mm to 110mm. I paid $84 for seven gear rings (5 of the 55-65mm size and 2 of the 65-75mm size), plus $14 for shipping. That comes out to just $14 per ring, including shipping. I was able to pay with PayPal, and the rings were shipped promptly and arrived quickly.
The gear rings are very similar in appearance to the Redrock microLensGears, the design of which I'm sure they were based on. They are made of plastic, and have plastic feet which grip the barrel of the lens. At the top, the gear is split, which allows you to stretch it out to get it around the lens, and then closed with a thumbscrew to tighten it down. In terms of their functionality, there's really not that much to say about them. They work. What else do you need from a lens gear? They seem pretty sturdy, and I haven't had any problems with them. I've looked closely at the Redrock gears a few times and couldn't tell any discernible difference in quality or function.
The screw closure at the top is pretty big and can be more obtrusive than the closure systems of some of the other manufacturer's lens gear options, but if you tighten it onto the lens in the right position to work with your follow focus configuration, this shouldn't be an issue. It could become an issue if you have to switch your follow focus from the smart side to the dumb side of the camera or vice versa, but this will be the case with any gear that is not permanently mounted to the lens in a continuous circle. At least loosening the thumbscrew and rotating the gear into whatever position is needed is quick and easy -- more so than with some of the other gears out there that require tools.
The only thing that's really notable about the PROAIM gears is the price. They do their job, and the next closest competitor I've seen costs more than twice as much. If I only had one lens that I used with my camera, I might consider spending more on one of the name brand gears, since one gear probably isn't going to break the bank, and it might buy me a little more peace of mind. However, considering I had a whole bunch of lenses to outfit with gears, the cost really added up fast, and at $12 each, the PROAIM gears were the only option out there that made sense. I give them five out of five bangs for the buck.

JBW’s Michal Hoschander Malen interviewed Rabbi Sandy Sasso about the many children’s books she has authored and about where she finds the inspirations for her stories.
Michal Hoschander Malen: Rabbi Sasso, your lovely books, although geared to young children, are filled with spiritual connections and a sense of reaching beyond our daily lives. Can you tell us a bit about your overall philosophies and how you are able to transmit some of that feeling to a new generation?
Rabbi Sandy Sasso: I began writing for children in the late 1980s. I wanted books about God, spirituality, and the Bible that I could read to my own children and the children I taught. Most of the children’s literature in these areas was either too preachy or contained ideas that children would be prone to reject when they grew older. Children have an innate spirituality and they are capable of talking about life’s big questions. Often adults are afraid of the conversation. Writing about the sacred, the divine, doesn’t mean simplifying the concept, just the language. When I write, I address a number of questions: How might children experience the sacred in their daily experiences? How might they come to understand Bible tales as more than ancient texts, as living stories of which they are a part? How can story be a way honoring the spiritual lives of children and encourage a continuing conversation?
MHM: The new Noah movie has reawakened interest in the old Bible tale and one is reminded that you wrote a book only a few short years ago featuring Noah’s wife, Naamah. Please tell us about your vision of Naamah and why you think she is an important figure for the youth of today. How much, if any, of the Naamah character is based on anything hinted at in the Biblical text? What can we learn from the Noah story about the world we live in now? Are there any lessons we can carry away with us?
RSS: Often when I read Biblical narratives what fascinates me the most is the voice that is missing. When a student once asked me who Noah’s wife was, I had nothing to say. I decided to look at rabbinic sources to see if they might tell me something. I found two names, Naamah and Emzerah. Naamah means “pleasing” and Emzerah, “Mother of Seed.” That wasn’t much to go on, but it was enough for a story. Noah saved the animal life. I imagined that Naamah collected two of every seed, planted a garden on the ark and replanted the earth’s garden after the Flood.
I write that as Naamah was collecting all the plants to bring on the ark, she passed by the dandelions. God tells her again to gather seeds of every plant. Naamah knows that means the dandelions too. Because she had ignored them God made certain that dandelions would cover the earth.
Soon after the book came out I received a call from the assistant to the Secretary of the Interior of the United States! He told me that he had read my book and wanted to know where I had found the part about the dandelions. The need for environmental preservation was essential and he wanted to know the sacred source. I told him that I found it in my imagination. He was disappointed. He needed something a bit more ancient!
Toward the end of the book, I suggest that it is Naamah who puts an olive seed in the mouth of the raven and encourages him to drop it to the earth. When the dove returns with the olive branch, Noah says it is a miracle; Naamah just smiles!
It is important for young people to know that nothing and no one is unimportant; that even when they feel ignored, they are loved. They have a responsibility to care for the earth, to continue to plant the trees and the garden, to care for our environment. It is more important now than ever. I also want our young people to come to realize that they shouldn’t wait for miracles; they can make them happen.
MHM: We more recently reviewed two of your other books, The Shema in the Mezuzah: Listening to Each Other and Creation’s First Light. The Shema in the Mezuzah was a wonderful story about compromise. What is the source for this story?
RSS: The story is based on a twelfth-century argument between two great scholars, Rashi and his grandson, Rabbenu Tam. They disagreed about how the mezuzah should be placed on the door posts of the house. Rashi thought that we should put the mezuzah vertically. Rabbenu Tam believed it should be in a horizontal position. In the end, they compromised and decided to slant the mezuzah. I had known about this debate for a long time and told it as part of a sermon. Then one day when I was thinking about what story to tell at a family service, my husband Dennis asked, “Why don’t you tell the story of the mezuzah?” I took his advice and the kids loved it! It was the beginning of The Shema in the Mezuzah. Because it deals with the importance of listening and compromise, it isn’t just a story for children. Many people who read the book suggest that I send it to Congress!
MHM: Creation’s First Light is suffused with a sense of spirituality and joy. Where do you get the ideas for your books and what motivates you to write for children?
RSS: Often the ideas come from questions — my own or others. I recall telling the creation story from Genesis. I asked if there was any part of the story we could do without and still have all the story we needed. One person suggested that we did not need the light of the first day, because we had the light of the sun and the moon.
What was the light of the first day? I knew the midrash about the primordial light that was greater than the sun and the moon and that it had been lost after Adam and Eve ate from the Tree of Knowledge. Despite many suggestions in rabbinic text, I still was not sure where the primordial light was hidden. When my first grandson was born, I looked into his eyes and I saw that light. It was then that I knew its name — the soul.
When I talk to children about this story, they understand that spiritual light in ways I never thought possible. They can tell the difference between the light of the sun, the moon and the stars, the artificial lights of lamps and flashlights and the deeper light of the soul. Our children have that special light and they want to tell us about it. It is up to us to insure that they have the language, so that it can continue to burn more brightly.
MHM: Can you share with our readers a few details about your writing process?
RSS: I read; I observe. Something strikes me — a midrash, a question. Then a thought grabs hold of me and won’t let go. It is a bit like the account of Jacob struggling with the angel. Only in writing, I am wrestling with ideas and words, and I won’t let go until they bless me. I wrote many of my books while I was serving as a rabbi of a large congregation. People would often ask me, “Where do you find the time?” When a story is inside you, you can’t sleep if you don’t write it down. Time finds you — even in the middle of the night. It is exhilarating and hard — lots of editing and discarding, playfulness and patience.
If I am working with a Bible tale or a midrash, I weave traditional texts with imagination and listen for the silences. Sometimes the characters have a mind of their own. When you live with them long enough, they take you places you didn’t at first think you would go. You carry the story with you and in you. And when it is finished, you give birth. And just like a child, the story takes on a life of its own.
MHM: Are there any new books or subjects we can look forward to in the foreseeable future? Do you have any hints or teasers for us to whet our appetites?
RSS: There is a book that will be published in the fall that tells of the chestnut tree behind Anne Frank’s Secret Annex. Saplings from that tree are being planted in eleven places in the U.S. Anne Frank and the Remembering Tree is the story of Anne Frank from the point of view of the tree.
I am also working on an adult anthology with Peninnah Schram on Jewish Love and Marriage: Stories from the Bible to Contemporary Time (working title).
I thought you might be interested in the following explanation of one of my books because of the recent release of the movie. The Noah movie reminded me of my story of Naamah and the recent book and movie, Heaven is For Real, make me think back to the book I wrote in 1999, For Heaven’s Sake. The story tells of a little boy named Isaiah whose grandfather has died. People tell him that his grandfather went to Heaven and Isaiah wants to know what heaven is. He receives many answers, none of which satisfy him. Finally his grandmother takes Isaiah to all the places his grandfather loved to visit and volunteer. Then she says, “I think, Isaiah, we can get close to Heaven and to God in a place in our hearts. I feel there is a part of Grandpa in all the places and people we visited today, and little bit of Heaven, too.” I wrote this story in part because as a rabbi I was often asked this question and most of the books I read were not satisfying. I felt a need for a narrative that did not depict this world simply as a waiting room for the world to come, but a real place where we can make life hell or heavenly.
MHM: Thank you so much, Rabbi Sandy Eisenberg Sasso. We look forward to many more creative and beautiful books from your flowing pen.

• Mishaya Chettiar, Executive Head at Everything.Insure, explores how Insurtech is set to disrupt low consumer uptake of insurance by transforming the industry into one that is more customer-focused and therefore better equipped to meet South African consumers’ needs.
More than a decade ago, the customer’s purchasing journey was very different from what we see today. Prior to the advent of the digital consumer, customers were essentially presented with a variety of brands selling a specific product or service, and differentiating factors such as price or quality would influence their purchasing decision.
Although these factors are still important to consumers, the increased connectedness of the digital age and access to information have given consumers greater buying power while making them more discerning. As such, consumers are looking at more than just price; they’re looking for more authentic and personalised experiences that clearly demonstrate that they are valued and that their needs are being catered to by the brand they are choosing to purchase from.
For example, if you were looking to buy a car online, you’re no longer just looking at how much the car would cost as a deciding factor before you purchase. In fact, you’d likely want to compare factors like the individual features of each car, such as fuel efficiency, mileage, and age, as well as reviews and ratings of each car brand or dealership, before looking at price.
In meeting this changing consumer demand, the insurance industry has long lagged behind. Insurers have traditionally been very focused on differentiating themselves via price, but today, positioning the customer as the focal point of all decisions related to product and service delivery is a crucial area for the industry to evolve. This is as customers continue to demand increased digitisation, accessibility, flexibility and individualisation.
This requires taking action to meet the needs and expectations of consumers, such as more automated and efficient processes, flexibility in product offerings, tailor-made risk profiling, and subsequently more affordable options.
According to Deloitte’s Africa Insurance Outlook 2022 insurers can provide customers with streamlined, deliberate and individualised customer offerings through digitisation and the adoption of emerging technologies. In short, Insurtech (the use of technology innovations to improve efficiency and find cost savings) holds the key to redefining insurance on the continent, and more specifically in South Africa.
Technology enables customer-centricity
Insurance is vital to consumers as it helps to protect us against any unforeseen events and circumstances that would lead to financial stress from loss. However, South Africans face a high barrier to entry in relation to insurance, which often does not cater to individuals’ unique insurance needs, especially as it pertains to affordability.
In fact, only 17 out of every 100 South Africans have medical insurance, 70% of the more than 11 million registered vehicles on the country’s roads are not insured against accidents or damage, and only 10% have life insurance (excluding funeral cover).q
Following the disruption of the global pandemic and its economic impact, rising inflation, and a cost of living crisis, South Africans are facing financial distress. Because of this, a growing number of consumers are calling for more flexible and affordable coverage options.
Insurtech is set to disrupt this low uptake landscape in the country’s insurance industry by transforming it into one that is more customer focused and therefore better equipped to meet South African consumers needs.
By using technologies such as AI, machine learning, and data analysis, Insurtech is enabling the creation of insurance products with intelligent underwriting that are more competitively priced through adaptable and tailored solutions, empowering consumers with the ability to make changes to their insurance plans or submit a claim anywhere at any time, and facilitating the ability to stop and start their insurance plan based on when they need it and when they don’t, with just a simple click of a button. Prior to the adoption of these technologies in the industry, there was no way to tailor products to individual customers or to tailor underwriting rules.
These technologies have enabled greater efficiencies for customers in regard to timely claims processes, risk evaluations, and the processing of policies. And, with AI, insurance systems are able to automatically make changes or suggest new offers to a customer’s profile based on changes to their individual risk profile or shifts in the insurance industry.
Until now, insurance was a complex and confusing subject to tackle for consumers who knew very little about the industry. But, Insurtech is empowering customers with a greater level of information at their fingertips before they make a purchasing decision by enabling consumers to compare the products, services, and features of different insurers and find the one that fits just right for their unique wants and needs.
Essentially, Insurtech is giving South African consumers greater agency in their insurance decisions and is leading to improved outcomes in the way that the market operates – in favour of the consumer over the industry.
When a business integrates customer-centricity into its business strategy, the organisation is able to change the way that it thinks about and communicates with its customers on all levels. This results in more authentic customer experiences and significant cost savings for consumers.
And, just like the FinTech revolution brought on a new wave of innovation within the financial services industry, Insurtech is primed and ready to reshape and redefine what insurance looks like and what it means for consumers not only in South Africa, but across the African continent and the rest of the world. Now, just like they’re able to with every other area of their lives, consumers will be able to take greater ownership of their insurance portfolio.

Orthodontics is one of many dental specialties. The word “orthodontics” is derived from the Greek words orthos, meaning proper or straight and odons meaning teeth. Orthodontics is specifically concerned with diagnosing and treating tooth misalignment and irregularity in the jaw area. Initially, orthodontic treatments were geared toward the treatment of teens and pre-teens, but these days around 30 percent of orthodontic patients are adults.
There are many advantages to well-aligned teeth, including easier cleaning, better oral hygiene, clearer speech and a more pleasant smile. Though orthodontic treatment can be effective at any age, the American Dental Association suggests that an orthodontic assessment should be performed around the age of seven. The earlier orthodontic treatment begins, the more quickly the problem can be successfully resolved.
What problems can be treated with orthodontics?
Orthodontics is a versatile branch of dentistry that can be used alone, or in combination with maxillofacial or cosmetic dentistry.
Here are some of the common conditions treated with orthodontics:
Anteroposterior deviations – The discrepancy between a pair of closed jaws is known as an anteroposterior discrepancy or deviation. An example of such a discrepancy would be an overbite (where the upper teeth are further forward than the lower teeth), or an underbite (where the lower teeth are further forward then the upper teeth).
Overcrowding – Overcrowding is a common orthodontic problem. It occurs when there is an insufficient space for the normal growth and development of adult teeth.
Aesthetic problems – A beautiful straight smile may be marred by a single misaligned tooth. This tooth can be realigned with ease and accuracy by the orthodontist. Alternatively, orthodontists can also work to reshape and restructure the lips, jaw or the face.
Orthodontics is a technologically advanced field which offers many sophisticated solutions to malocclusions and other cosmetic problems. The orthodontist will generally perform a visual examination, panoramic X-rays, and study models (bite impressions) in order to assess the exact nature of the discrepancy.
When a diagnosis has been made, there are a variety of orthodontic treatment options available.
Here is an overview of some of the most common treatments:
Fixed orthodontic braces – A metal or ceramic dental base is affixed to each tooth, and a dental wire is inserted through each base. The orthodontist is able to gradually train the teeth into proper alignment by regularly adjusting the wire. When the desired results are achieved, the fixed dental braces are completely removed.
Removable appliances – There are a wide range of removable appliances commonly used in orthodontics, including headgear that correct overbites, Hawley retainers that improve the position of the teeth even as the jawbone reforms, and facemasks which are used to correct an underbite.
Invisalign® – This is a newer, removable type of dental aligner that is completely transparent. Invisalign® does not interfere with eating because of its removable nature, and mechanically works in the same way as the traditional metal dental braces. Not all patients are candidates for Invisalign®.
If you have any questions or concerns about orthodontics, please contact our office.

Off Balance: A Memoir by Dominique Moceanu with Paul Williams and Teri Williams
Release Date: June 12, 2012
An unflinchingly honest memoir from Olympic gold medalist Dominique Moceanu that reveals the often dark underbelly of Olympic gymnastics as only an insider can—and the secrets she learned about the past that nearly tore apart her family.At fourteen years old, Dominique Moceanu was the youngest member of the 1996 U.S. Women’s Olympic Gymnastic team, the first and only American women’s team to take gold at the Olympics. Her pixie-like appearance, passion for the sport, and ferocious competitive drive quickly earned her the status of media darling. But behind the fame, the flawless floor routines, and the million-dollar smile, her life was a series of challenges and hardships.
From her stubborn father and long-suffering mother, to her acclaimed Svengali-like coach, Bela Karolyi, Off Balance reveals how each of the dominating characters contributed to Moceanu’s rise to the top. Here, Moceanu finally shares the haunting stories of competition, her years of hiding injuries and pain out of fear of retribution from her coaches, and how she hit rock bottom after being publicly scorned by her father.
But medals, murder plots, drugs, and daring escapes aside (all of which figure into Moceanu’s incredible journey), the most unique aspect of her life is the family secret that Moceanu discovers, opening a new and unexpected chapter in her adult life, just as she reclaims the love of the sport that had defined so much of her life.
A multilayered memoir that transcends the world of gymnastics and sport, Off Balance will touch anyone who has ever dared to dream of a better life. (courtesy of Goodreads)
I generally limit my reviews to young adult fiction, but with the Olympics underway and the most interesting parts of this book focusing on Dominique's teenage years, I'm making an exception. I've been a huge gymnastics fan my entire life. Unfortunately, my future as an Olympian was cut short at a mere 3 years of age by the development of a healthy fear of "what might hurt Alison" (plus having the flexibility of a dry twig). So I lived vicariously through the Magnificent Seven in 1996.
Off Balance is a must read for any gymnastics fan and especially for anyone who loved the Magnificent Seven's gold medal win in Atlanta. I enjoyed watching Dominique hop onto the national stage at 13 and then leap into the world's hearts at 14 (although I was always irritated that she stole the limelight from my beloved Shannon Miller). Dominique is only a week younger than me and her life seemed so much fuller and charmed than mine. It was definitely fuller, but charmed it was not.
Dominique tells in great detail her years of suffering under her brutish, abusive father and the Karolyis, who made her father seem gentle. In fact, she is so negative towards the Karolyis that I would think her story to be exaggerated if we hadn't all heard these same dark rumors from other gymnasts. Nothing Dominique could ever do was good enough for Bela and Marta. She didn't work hard enough, she made mistakes, she was weak. They treated her even worse than others, because her parents would never stand up to the Karolyis. And according to Dominique, they weren't even her primary coaches. They hired other coaches to do the day to day work and then fired them before the Olympics so they could get the glory for being a champion's coach.
If you're looking for gossip about the other team members of the Magnificent Seven, you won't find it here. She talks briefly about the other members, but doesn't have any good stories. She did seem to particularly like Jaycee Phelps, Amanda Borden, and Kerri Strug. She was careful not to say anything bad about anyone. Too bad. I wanted stories. I was surprised to realize how isolated she was from the other members of the Olympic team. The Karolyis kept a tight rein on Dominique and Kerri. Plus, being four or more years younger than the rest of the team set her apart.
While I was disappointed by the lack of gymnast gossip, the book vividly described her training and her experience at the Olympics. What seemed like a magical time to the viewers was often terrifying to Dominique who knew that - gold medal or not - her father and the Karolyis would only see the slight imperfections of her performance. I cringed through large parts of the book, because Dominique's childhood was so nightmarish.
With all the difficulties of her life, this book could have been full of self-pity, but it wasn't. It was a reflection of a young woman who has come to terms with her past and moved on. She is able to successfully separate her love of gymnastics from the people who made it difficult. She has managed to come to peace with her father but still realizing that his actions were horribly wrong. The Karolyis and USA Gymnastics are the only continued sources of bitterness for Dominique that I noticed.
A good portion of the book deals with Dominique's recent discovery that she has a sister she never knew about. When she was 6 her mother gave birth to a baby with no legs. Unable to care for the little girl, Dominique's parents gave her up for adoption. Dominique tells the story of her sister Jennifer with glowing adulation. While Jennifer seems like a fabulous girl who has thrived despite her physical challenges, I really didn't care. I wanted to know more about Dominique. I did think it interesting that Dominique realized that Jennifer had a much happier childhood than she did by being raised in a different family.
I highly recommend Off Balance for gymnastics fans. It could have used a bit more gossip and a bit less information about Dominique's new-found gossip, but it was still full of inside gymnastics info and gave me a clear look at the difficult life of a very successful girl.

Native American tribes that roamed this area millenniums ago left their mark for the modern world. Their petroglyphs — images carved or “pecked” on rocks — are scattered throughout the region.
U.S. Forest Service archeologist Nolan Smith, who is assigned to the Foresthill Ranger Station, manages the petroglyph sites in the American River ranger district.
Courtesy/Nolan Smith -These petroglyphs appear in flat rock formations in a remote area of the American River ranger district
“We think they were made between 1,500 and 4,000 years ago and are associated with the Martis archeological complex,” he said.
The Maidu and Nisenan tribes inhabited this area and the Miwoks lived farther to the south. The Washoe, from east of the Sierra, are believed to have created some of the sites, he said.
There’s an array of designs.
“We get snake-like lines, sinuous-type lines, rakes, concentric circles, circles with lines radiating out like a sunburst or moon, bear paw drawings — all pecked in stone using other rocks,” Smith said. “One thing we have not been able to find is any of the tools used to make the petroglyphs. The assumption is that they used a harder type of stone to make them.”
In the area he oversees, the petroglyphs are located in remote areas.
“Usually they are pretty far back in the deep forest,” he said.
The sites range from one or two drawings to hundreds of them. When new discoveries are made, which still happens, they’re documented and photographed.
“We don’t remove them because if we did, it would destroy them,” Smith said.
Even left in place, the ancient drawings are at risk.
“You can have a freeze and thaw that causes breaking off,” he said.
Humans, unfortunately, can also pose a threat.
“You can have vandalism and we’re trying to track that,” he said.
Because of the possibility of vandalism based on past experience, the sites aren’t disclosed to the public.
For Smith, who has made some petrogylph finds, it’s a little like putting together a jigsaw puzzle.
“I’m interested in the distribution of them — where they are located in the landscape and why,” he said. “I’m interested in what other archeological sites are associated with them, like chipstone or flakestone sites. Most of the petroglyph sites are just petroglyphs but some also have chipstone. If you find (these other materials) they are little more complex and have a littler higher value in terms of research.”
CIV 106 - 206 : Civilisations paléo-indiennes / Amerindians of North America
As part of his job, Smith gives talks to local groups on various aspects of his job.
“One of the things I emphasize is our archeological sites — petroglyphs and historic — are protected by the Protection Act of 1979 that prohibits removal or distribution of (the artifacts),” he said.
The protected designation covers anything 50 years old or older.
“As an archeologist, I’m also interested in receiving reports of damage on federal lands,” he said. “We want people to respect the rich resources we have in the woods.”
Although the location of most of the sites is not revealed to the public, there are places where petroglyphs are on view. One of those is the Maidu Museum and Historic Site in Roseville.
The museum includes a trail that gives visitors an up-close look at petroglyphs as well as grinding sites, all in the original spots where they were found.
According to Rick Adams, cultural representative at the museum, the Roseville sites are at least 4,000 years old.
“The petroglyphs are representative of a native culture that has been here for thousands of years,” he said. “Once you see them, you see they were extremely important to native peoples.”
The petroglyphs relate to medical practices of those times, he explained.
Interpreting the drawings is “almost unknown in modern society because the cultural practices have been nearly decimated,” he said. “The people who practiced that type of medicine have almost disappeared. The understanding has to come through the native peoples who have had the culture handed down to them.”

See what I mean about it being beautiful?Every branch on every tree in the state basically looks like this. Actually lots are way worse. We are lucky enough to hold on to our power, but apparently there are 400,000 going without in Kentucky, including 100,000 in our city. If you wonder why all the power goes out, imagine how much all this ice weighs. These trees over my neighbors house usually stand straight up...I hope everyone gets their power back soon and is able to get back to normal life! As for me and Nick, we are settling in for the night and staying off the ice!
Also, I wanted to let you all know that my first review is up over on Chic Shopper Chick! Go take a look if you have time!

The Republic of the Niger is a member of the United Nations and the African Union. It has ratified many UN Human Rights Conventions (compare list on the right) and thus has made binding international commitments to adhere to the standards laid down in these universal human rights documents.
The Niger is a French-speaking country in West Africa. It is a landlocked country with an area of 1,267,000 square km – the sixth largest on the continent. On a global scale, its population density is very low. The capital of the country, which became independent on 3 August 1960 from France, is Niamey. Niger is a member of the regional economic communities ECOWAS and CEN-SAD.
With a Human Development Index of 0.34 the Niger ranks lowest among the 182 countries ranked in the UNDP Human Development Report of 2009. Life expectancy of the 14.7 million inhabitants at birth is 57 years, population growth is 3.3 percent per year. GNI is 330 US-$ per capita. External debt is 23.0 percent of gross national income. Primary school enrolment is 44.9 percent.
In as far as the Niger has ratified the Optional Protocols for UN Human Rights Conventions or has accepted the Competence of the corresponding UN Treaty Bodies (compare list on the right), the inhabitants of the Niger and their representatives are able to invoke their human rights through these bodies.
All inhabitants of the Niger may turn to the UN Human Rights Committee through procedure 1503, to the Special Rapporteurs for violations of specific human rights or to ECOSOC for women's rights violations.
Since the Niger is a member state of UNESCO, its citizens may use the UNESCO procedure for human rights violations in UNESCO's fields of mandate.
Employers' or workers' and certain other organizations (not individuals) of he Niger may file complaints through the ILO procedure in the cases of those conventions which the Niger has ratified.
Since the Niger is an AU member, its citizens and NGOs may file complaints to the African Commission on Human and Peoples’ Rights.
They may also file complaints according to the EU guidelines (on Human Rights Defenders, Death Penalty and Torture) to Embassies of EU Member States and the Delegations of the European Commission.
In cases of human rights violations by multinational enterprises, they may also invoke the National Contact Point in an OECD member state.
The Niger has joined the International Criminal Court, it may thus be called upon in case of severe crimes.

But wait! There’s more!
I am also the editor of her forthcoming short story collection, Luminous Dreams.
Colour me excited!
So allow me to introduce you to Alexa and tell you a little bit about Luminous Dreams:
Eight tales, eight sensual dreams of enchantment, wanderlust and lovers’ longings, of searching and finding; these dreams tell of birds of fire, curses that lie like bridges between night and day, and hunger for sweet seduction.
There is dance in this little book; there is song. But what would a good dream be without a pinch of salt, a dash of darkness? Those are also contained within, and once you’ve looked their way, well, there is no looking back. Get ready to read. Get ready to dream.
Alexa Piper enjoys writing, romance, and the paranormal. This said, becoming a paranormal romance writer seemed perfectly reasonable, but for Alexa, it is more than that; it’s fun. Alexa’s work has appeared in the Red Moon Romance anthology Demons, Imps, and Incubi and another story will appear in The Naughty List. Luminous Dreams is Alexa’s first collection, and she hopes her readers will have as much fun reading it as she had writing it.

Along with my late October favourites, so too is that month's empties. In fact empties have fallen by the wayside more that any other posts of late so there are few jumbled posts that will appear but for now let's focus on what has recently made it's way into the pile.
Quite a few of this months empties have already been repurchased and that includes KMS California AddVolume Shampoo and Maybelline BrowDrama. Both these products are staples and ones I can rely on. For different jobs obviously. KMS California AddVolume Shampoo* isn't the cheapest product but I love the volume it gives my hair and I recently found a bottle at a reduced price in my local Homesense so I couldn't resist picking it up. See my review on more KMS California products here.
Maybelline BrowDrama I've discussed many times. Day to day I'm too lazy for penciling in individual hairs, even with products that make that easy. Instead a quick swipe from this Brow 'mascara' and I'm happy with the look. I have of course replaced already and am tempted to try other versions for comparison but I always resist preferring to stick with what I know.
Two favourite skincare items ended up in the pile this month, Vichy Idealia Eyes* and L'oreal Age Perfect RefreshingToner. Both of this affordable items hold their own against luxury brands. Vichy is one of my go to high street brands, particularly the Idealia range. The products are perfect for my 30plus skin that I don't always treat as well as I should. With dreadful sleeping patterns and habits dark circles can be a problem for me but Idealia Eyes makes me look more awake than I feel. Toners are always difficult to talk about for me, this isn't the 'refreshing' spritz, nor the tingly acid tone type but it's one I like for those inbetween days when you want something more than just the refreshing spray but not too much for exfoliating toners. There is a lovely masculine scent to this toner which I enjoy and I always feel like my skin looks better for using this.
Unfortunately the Nanokeratin System Re-Vive Invigorating Shampoo and Conditioner* was not as much as a favourite as KMS was. Nothing to dislike just nothing to love either - especially for the price point and from a salon brand. Despite being specially formulated for 'virgin hair' like mine it never gave results that I couldn't get from cheaper alternatives. I do have another couple of sachets of this product to use so I will try again and see if I notice better results.
Another month, another hand cream and Vaseline Intensive Care Healthy Hands + Stronger Nails* is perfect for this time of year and a great size for those of you like me who use a lot of hand cream and an even better price. This isn't the fanciest of hand creams but it keeps hands moisturised, isn't greasy and has a subtle scent.
Even before we reach the end of 2015 I think I can safely say 007 Fragrance for Women* was my surprise hit of the year. As I talked about in my initial review I had a slightly snobbish opinion of what I would class as a novelty fragrance and was proved very wrong. The 007 fragrance became as loved as my Chanel classics and for a much more affordable price. Perfume is something I usually request for Christmas or might treat myself to in duty free but this is one I could easily justify treating myself to 'just because'.
If you saw this instagram post then you'll be aware of my love for Sure Maximum Protection deodorant. It literally won't let you down, or me at least. I've dabbled with other deodorants, as much as recently in fact and they just don't compete with this favourite. Sexy it isn't but I'm a sweaty betty and have spent years tackling wet patches under the arms and trying every deodorant known to man and this is the first that ticks all the boxes. My only complaint is I seem to go through them sooooo quickly.
And finally is a boring product but one I mention for a number of reasons. Firstly, I was introduced to The Breath Co via a press sample and secondly it's important for me that my readers see that I will continue use products beyond the 'freebie' and purchasing with my own money - especially in this case when I could by far cheaper versions. This is a toothpaste that I recommend for anyone who doesn't like that minty toothpaste flavour. Minty it says but it has none of that overpowering flavour that would make you gag if you took a sip of orange juice. If you're interested keep an eye on the usual Boots offers, you can usually get it discounted. Read my original review here.
Did you spot any products you use in my trash?

Happy Thanksgiving Truffles
Even though I'm not hosting Thanksgiving at our place (never have and will try to shirk it as long as possible) - I'm of course contributing to a fabulous feast that's about to take place at Dan's cousin's house. And since I've been on a truffle kick lately, I decided to have another go at it, creating these white chocolate, pumpkin truffles. Similarly to my first try at truffles, I see that I still need loads of practice, but the good news is that the end result still tastes yummy.
I made two types of truffles, as you can see here - one is coated in white chocolate and includes a pumpkin (butternut squash in my case), cream cheese, white chocolate, cookie crumbs, cinnamon, sugar and orange zest filling and is coated in the white chocolate. Like a proper truffle should look. The others are a bit more rustic, as I ended up mixing the remainder of the white chocolate with the above mentioned filling and then coating it with the cookie crumbs. Still yummy but just a different look. Hope you have the patience and appetite to try something like this - while the pumpkin (or the butternut squash lasts).
Happy Thanksgiving everyone, and I can't wait to hear about the yummies you cooked up.

Every summer, we meet Gavin's family in San Diego for an informal family-reunion at the beach.
Gavin's family has been staying at the same little place every year, since he was a boy. The location couldn't be better, as you step out your door, and on to the beach. The little cousins think that they have found heaven, as they live in their swimsuits for a week, raid grandma's freezer of all her Popsicles, bogey board all day...you get the picture!
- Shelby comparing her pinkness with her equally frilly-n-feisty girl cousins
- Martha's (made by Karen) Texas Sheet cake for my 30th birthday
- Dalton catching waves at his first surfing lesson with surfer Grandpa Eddington catching it all on film
- Dalton and his cousins playing "spoons" with their Grandma and getting more excited than winning games on the Wii
- Shelby riding the Lego Horse at LegoLand
- Dalton and Gavin on the Puke-O-Ramma at LegoLand (in Dalton's opinion-the only decent ride.)
- Dalton and boy cousins acting like total goofs the entire time
- Dalton getting stung by a jellyfish (thanks for the vinegar Grandma Martha)
- Being Garrett's human pacifier the entire trip-as not to wake the others sleeping right beside us in our ONE room..ugh! (Baby-boot camp began the day we got back to Salt Lake!)
- lines and heat at Legoland
We had a blast...our best year yet! Dalton and Shelby miss their cousins already. We love them all lots!

- An aortic dissection is when the layers of the aorta are split by blood (here's what it looks like on a CT scan). If it is an acute event, it can lead to a terrible tearing sensation in the chest, and it is a surgical emergency. What I learned this week is that you can actually have a chronic aortic dissection as well, which sounds really terrifying, but supposedly isn't that big of a deal.
- This week I saw a pretty rare pathological condition - a gallstone ileus. Basically, an inflamed gallbladder creates a fistula, or connection, with a part of the small bowel, and then passes gallstones into the bowel. This is a pretty rare cause of small bowel obstruction, which is why a supposedly two hour surgery this week took the surgeons seven hours. I remember this specifically being a practice question during board studying, and I remember thinking how crazy it was then, and then to see it in real life made it a pretty interesting case!
- Not a medical fact, but I did place my first Foley catheter this week! After three weeks of purely observation, it was nice to actually do something.
on the internet
- I love Kimberly's casual summer outfit (plus she took the pictures in one of my favorite locations!).
- Not only am I completely obsessed with Katie's outfit, but her Seattle spotlight make me miss it (and Bri!) so so much. I can't wait to go back.
- Looking for the perfect summer outfit? It doesn't get much better than this (plus I can copy most of it!)
- I have been looking for a short sleeved, striped, v-neck tee for SO long...and I finally found one, and it's $15...so it may be time to stock up on a few! Can you guess what colors I ordered? ;)
- Majorly crushing on this vertically striped top - it would be perfect with white jeans and tan sandals!
- I've really been impressed with Old Navy recently, and constantly want to order something from them! I bet this dress is so so flattering on, and I need this scarf for sure.
- on the blog: reviewing the prettiest white summer sundress (it's still on sale, and 50% off!)
- on the instagram: my only post of the week! but I made sure to make it a good one.
- on the twitter: this is still true.
- Nordstrom Anniversary
- I tried to stay away (isn't that always the story!) but spent a little bit of time on the site after it opened to everyone. I did end up ordering this top in a few colors and sizes to try on, as well as this simple long sleeved tee, just because I love those longer types of tops, especially once it's cool enough for boots (and speaking of boots, lets all stare longingly at this pair and all of their cognac gorgeousness)
- J.Crew Factory: 50% off summer styles
- How precious is this darker eyelet dress? SO PRETTY!
- Shopbop: new additions to sale
- This last week has been really really busy for me. I switched to the other campus this week, and was with two fourth years who are auditioning for that surgery residency program, so I kind of got sucked into the "auditioning" too, which means I have to do all the things they do, but actually get to do less because I'm just a third year. So it was just a really long week for me. Only one week to go! It's definitely been a really interesting experience, seeing what general surgery is like, but I know me, and I know that that life is not for me either.
- This weekend, CR and I made sure to do a few more things around the house. We added our headboard and new bedding, planted some flowers, and did alllllll the laundry. We also went out to dinner with the other students who are at my site, and explored our area a bit more. It was nice to just have some time to relax.
- My BFF Caitlin and her dog Piper (Baer's girlfriend) are coming down this weekend and I AM SO EXCITED. We still talk almost every week to check in and talk for about an hour, but it's going to be so much better just to see her in real life :)

The Gotta Play Tennis podcast will be closing its doors by the end of the month of January 2023.
This site was never meant for the purpose of housing a podcast. It was to be a place for the parents of children in my lesson programs to gather information, schedules, and insight about the sport of tennis.
Therefore, with much trepidation, the podcast will be eliminated. For the present, the blog site will remain as, unlike podcast hosting, it does not require financial support.
Thank you to those who did gain some value from the podcast and supporting blogs. I hope it was worth the time you took to listen.

If you want to ensure that you have the most reliable, clean and healthy BBQ you can, then there are a few things that you can do in order to make it happen. The most important of these is having a regular Newcastle BBQ Cleaning. Having a regularly scheduled BBQ cleaning will help ensure that all of the food is completely fresh and that none of it will have been stored in the fridge for too long. Ideally, the cleanup should be done each week, as the food will lose some of its freshness if it’s left sitting around for too long.
In order to start, you will need to have an old Weber Grill. You will then need to assemble the grill and get all of the pieces lined up correctly. Then you are going to need to preheat the grill to the correct temperature. It is ideal to place a couple of thermometers on the cooking surface, so that you know exactly how the grill is heating up. Once this is done, you can start assembling your ingredients. Most of the meat should be placed on the grill, but you should try and avoid putting too much in there at once, as it can cause the juices to boil and smoke.
Once you have cleaned the grill to perfection, you will want to clean off any built-up grime. You can use a mixture of warm water and dish washing liquid to clean the pieces. If you have any wooden pieces, you should wash these separately using the washing up liquid. Once all the wooden pieces have been cleaned, you should rinse them off completely. The best way to dry these pieces is to set them out on a flat surface outdoors until they are completely dry.
When it comes to keeping your guests happy, one of the easiest things that you can do is provide them with fresh, hot, steaming hot burgers and potatoes. Before you start the process of cleaning the grill, you will need to make sure that you have cleaned out the cabinets and oven beforehand. This will prevent you from having to wash any of these items during your BBQ cleaning. Once you have these items cleaned, you will be ready to start cooking.
Some of the most popular barbecue sauces contain acids which can do damage to the walls and floors of the kitchen. In order to avoid this, you should be sure to clean your barbecue with a solution of water and vinegar. After this, you will want to wipe off any residue with a clean sponge. After you have wiped down all surfaces, you can begin cooking.
It is very important to make sure that you are using the right type of cleaners for the type of wood that you have in your barbecue. Wood that is left standing for too long can actually discolor and turn black if it is not properly protected. If you have propane or charcoal barbecue equipment, make sure to thoroughly research the type of cleaner that should be used on these items to ensure that you do not waste your time and money. While Newcastle BBQ cleaning may be a chore for some people, it is something that you will be glad you did as soon as you are finished.

While out looking for 78s recently, got permission to rummage through all kinds of records stored in some out-buildings behind a record store. Brought this one out on a whim thinking maybe the kids would enjoy a different Christmas song...judging from the title on one side...for the school commutes.
After getting home, tried to research personnel and a recording date only to find very little. It does seem to be a fairly collectible R&B record from 1958 and Bobbie appears to be Bobby Nunn of The Robins and later, a founding member of The Coasters.
Please feel free to enlighten me even more if anyone has information on these sides.

I thought that my next blog post would either (1) be good news about our adoption application, or (2) be a post about how we are adapting to our 700+ mile commute (that one will come next week; the other, I'm not certain). But today has been quite the adventure in travel insanity.
I have a hearing in Louisville, Kentucky on Friday. Weeks ago, Jake and I decided that I would fly through Kansas City on the way, drop Howie off with his Daddy, and then continue on to Kentucky, returning to Kansas afterward for a weekend with my boys.
But then Winter Storm Q intervened. Anticipated multi-feet of snow can really change things, so I've learned today.
First off, for reasons I do not understand, the entire parking garage for B Terminal at Intercontinental was full today. I can only assume it's due (a) to hold-overs from NBA All-Star Weekend, or (b) earlier arrivers to the BBQ Championships at the Rodeo this weekend. Either way, Howie and I wound up parking at A Terminal instead and taking the train around the airport. Howie was super excited (he loves trains!) but keeping a toddler close by while you manage two suitcases maneuvering from car to train to plane is stressful. So I was not thrilled.
Just as Howie and I were buckling into our seats for the flight from Houston to Kansas City, I got an email that my KC to Louisville flight had been cancelled. Ten minutes on the phone with a United rep made clear that MOST flights in the middle of the country had been, and that the odds were looking really slim I'd make it to Kentucky. The woman on the phone was very nice and tried every imaginable combination of flights to get me where I needed to be, but to no avail. I got off the phone with thirty seconds in which to call Jake and explain the situation before I was told to turn off my phone for the flight. Of course, in that 30 seconds my brilliant husband solved my problem for me: if the planes aren't working, better start driving. What would I do without him?
When Howie and I landed in Kansas, I booked a car (fortunately there were a few still available!). Then I called United to make sure that the Kansas-to-Kentucky leg of my itinerary was cancelled properly. Turns out, the woman trying to help me earlier in the day had booked me on three different combinations of flights between Kansas and Kentucky. None of them actually worked for my schedule, but they sure made for interesting reading for the NEXT United lady trying to help me. I mean, my actual itinerary (Houston-Kansas City-Chicago-Louisville-Cleveland-Kansas City-Houston) was convoluted enough to begin with. With the new additions, it took her ten minutes just to figure out which of the flights were supposed to be there and which were "extras." But she was also very helpful and thankfully we got the itinerary sorted relatively quickly considering.
Howie was such a trooper through all of the craziness! But he napped on the plane to Kansas City and woke up hungry. So as soon as we got off the plane he started to get just a little fussy. I'll admit, I snapped into full on bribery mode. I told him if he gave me five minutes to finish my phone call, he could have a bag of M&Ms (his favorite!). He was so good, and oh boy, I delivered. Hopefully the sugar didn't make him crazy for Daddy later.
Jake met us at the airport and got Howie, dropping me off at the car rental place so Avis could set me up with a vehicle, before they drove the two hours back to Junction City to hunker down for the storm. I think we got all of ten minutes together, but hopefully we'll get more time this weekend.
Since I was renting one way, I did not get a choice in which vehicle they gave me. This is the only car they had on the lot that was eligible for a one-way:
Not too shabby, though not really my style (green). Fortunately it got better gas mileage than I expected. I got on the road around 4pm and got to St. Louis, Missouri by 8pm. That's where I am now. The good news is that I had Starwood points saved up, so my hotel for the night didn't cost me anything. The better news is that I got a for-no-reason room upgrade at the Sheraton I booked. Too bad that never happens when I actually plan to spend time at a hotel...
Tomorrow I'll drive the rest of the way to Louisville. Ironically, after eight-plus hours of driving I'll actually get to Louisville earlier than my original itinerary had me arriving. I guess sometimes it really is better to drive.
So there you have it. My real life story of planes, trains, and automobiles. I'll (hopefully) be flying back to Kansas City after my hearing Friday afternoon, then I'll drive to Junction City to be with the boys. There is a real possibility that the snow will still be a factor on Friday, so please keep us in your prayers. It would have been bad to miss a hearing, but I'll be devastated if I can't get back for our family weekend.

How dense traffic creates a more enjoyable city for people like me
This morning as I was enjoying my coffee, sitting in my backyard, I was listening to the call of the peacocks at Sahuaro Ranch, and mourning doves, and I could also hear the steady flow of dense traffic, which is so thick and consistent that it sounds like a river. And that river, fortunately for me, is a place I've rarely been in, either in Phoenix or in Los Angeles.
I've been lucky, I haven't commuted much. When I lived in Los Angeles, the distance from my apartment to where I worked was about two miles. When I lived in Santa Barbara, my job was so close that I could walk to it, although I rarely did. My longest commute has been from here in Glendale to downtown Phoenix, about twelve miles, and that was for only a few years. Like I say, I've been lucky.
Nowadays my "commute" is to my computer, and has been for years. Before that, it was just a few blocks to Glendale Community College, where I taught until 2012. Usually I drove there, but sometimes I walked, and even biked there. And looking back on all of this, I realize that the dense traffic around me has created a great excuse for me to live in a much smaller world.
The Woman in My Life in Los Angeles accused me of "living in a triangle" - work, the gym, and my apartment. Of course I often visited her, which made my tiny world a square, but her place really wasn't all that far away, either. People who know that I lived in LA asked me how I dealt with the traffic. I didn't. On the rare occasions that I needed to be on the freeway, I would take along a book. When traffic came to a halt (which I've never seen it do like that in Phoenix), I would read a bit, and when it started to move, I'd move. When I tell people in Phoenix that, they rarely believe me. Yes, freeways have been "parking lots" in LA for a long time. I would literally put the car in park and read. I got to read several books that way!
To me, dense traffic is similar to bad weather. I may not be going anywhere today (maybe the gym, which is just a few blocks away), and it makes me happy to think that "I don't have to go out in that stuff". And I sympathize with people who do, and somehow knowing that just seems to make me more happy with my smaller world.
And just to be clear on all of this, if you're one of those people who have to go out in that stuff, I appreciate what you do. I order things online all of the time, and I know that the drivers who have to do that are doing something that I've never had to do, and I appreciate it. They're the people who keep my two favorite cities, Phoenix and Los Angeles, running, and without them people like me would be in big trouble. So I thank them when I can, and I thank you.
I've just made another cup of coffee, and I'm going back to listen to the steady flow of the river.

Welcome to Irish Stones.
Hi! Thanks for visiting this page.
The aim of this website is to collect all my visits, photos and notes about the megalithic and medieval historical places of Ireland. The website is continually growing and more entries will be added in the future.
There are five pages, the 5 W's, where I explain something about me, what I'm doing and why I'm doing it.
All the monuments that I visited and included in the database can be browsed by several criteria, so that you can easily read only what you are interested in.
Every monument page has full information, with geographic coordinates, OS grid references, type of monument, the county where it’s in and the map number. Every page has one to a dozen or more photos. All the photos have been taken by me with a digital camera. From every page you can easily see what other monuments are in the range of 20 kilometres.
For the sites that I visited in the year 2003 I only have 35mm photos. Unfortunately they’re slides, so they won’t be published until I scan them all, and it might take a while. Occasionally, though, I will upload single scanned slides where I want to show you what major changes occured to places over the years.
In the meantime I thought to use some of the frames of the digital videos I shot during the visits. The quality of these frames won't match the quality of a high resolution digital photo, but it's better than nothing.
For a reason that escapes me, during the trip in the year 2003 I didn't take any coordinate for all the monuments that weren't prehistoric. So all the churches, crosses, castles and so on that I saw in that year aren't listed in these pages.
For a likewise unknown reason, in the years 2006 and 2007 I didn't register the geographic coordinates down to the decimals, hence the figures you'll read will all be round numbers.
There's an A-Z list, useful to group all the monuments in alphabetical order. If you only remember the first one or two letters of a place, it'll be easier to find it if you read a list rather than guessing.
In the menu there are also two interactive maps, one with clickable counties and one with clickable OS maps. This way you can plan a visit even more easily, according to your needs.
With the Find a Map utility you'll be able to pick the right OS Map if you have a Grid Reference that you don't know what map it is on.
The Multimap is a fancy way to visually represent and gather all the monuments I visited so far. It's been useful to me too because I realized that I unintentionally focused more on certain areas than others. I'll try to compensate for it in the future.
My first visit to the Irish monuments dates from June 1994, but only since 2003 I started taking coordinates and notes for each of them. I thought to include all the previous visits in a simple list named The days before GPS. This list cannot be browsed for each visit, but if some of the monuments listed in it have been recently re-visited, they'll have a link to the page with full information.
There's a section that links some of the monuments in this database to one or more movies, The Stones in the Movies. You will learn that even in a classic or less known movie an ancient monument had a role.
The section with the Glossary should help you understand something about the monument types I included in this website. Just click on the monument type in the Glossary page and you'll read a short description about it.
The FAQ section gives you some quick answers to some of your doubts.
The last item in the menu is the What's NEW? page. Here is listed all that concerns about the updating of the pages or the adding of new features to this website or just any change to those features.
There is also a search engine that gives you results by entering the full name of the place or just part of it. In the case of more places with part of the name in common, more results will be displayed.
This website will be of help to anyone who shares the same passion and wants to visit the same places.
Enjoy your staying and, if you feel like, leave a comment in the guestbook.
Compliments, suggestions, questions and criticisms are welcome!
1578 monuments and 16103 pictures in the database.

In 1963, Pastor Paul Keller discovered he was unable to find very much in the way of
Christian bereavement writings to give to his congregation in times of grief and
So Pastor Keller began the task of writing many booklets of help for the suffering; those
suffering from the loss of a loved one; the loss of a child; recovery from addictions;
help for the divorced; advice for those trying to help the suffering; how to deal with the
many feelings people experience and help for those working with the sick and hospitalized.
Soon Pastor Keller was selling these helps to churches, hospitals, mortuaries, and many
individuals. His wife, Florence, was at his side to serve to the many people and thus
began Kairos Publishing. For 45 years they served many Christians across the country and
In May of 2007, Pastor Keller died. Florence felt it was time for her to enjoy a rest
from running Kairos Publishing; and turned to her friends at Mail Handling to fill orders
for the many still enjoying their publications. Mail Handling did this service until June
of 2008, when I took over the distribution of Pastor Keller's writings plus a few
booklets not written by him.
I am now the owner and distributor of Kairos Publishing; with the help of my husband,
Rick. Rick has suffered from some serious health complications in the past few years and
is unable to work full-time, so this has given him the opportunity to help me in countless
ways to serve the many that still enjoy Pastor Keller's works. We believe that through a
wonderful opportunity presented to us from Mail Handling and some great friends who helped
us find that opportunity; God presented a great way for both of us to serve fellow
Christians and to help those in pain find a way to happiness again.
We have enjoyed greatly the many people we have talked to; listening to their
stories of how these booklets have helped them in their time of sorrow and need. We are
hoping to continue the great service that Florence and Pastor Keller began back in 1963;
and we hope that you will help us spread the word that Kairos Publishing is still in
business. We hope to talk to you soon.
