Australian shooters restock private arsenal to pre-Port Arthur numbers
14 January 2013
New research from the University of Sydney shows that Australians destroyed more than a million guns in response to shooting massacres but imports have restored the stockpile to the level it was at before the Port Arthur massacre in 1996.
"Since 1988, when the first of several mass shootings took place, 38 state and federal gun amnesties ran for well over 3000 weeks," said Adjunct Associate Professor Philip Alpers, from the University's School of Public Health.
"If we include all the gun owners who sent their weapons to the smelter without asking for money, the real total is a million firearms destroyed, or a third of the national private arsenal. That's many more than we usually talk about."
"By mid-2012, following a steady 10-year upward trend in gun buying, Australians had restocked the national stockpile of private guns to pre-Port Arthur levels. They did this by importing 1,055,082 firearms, an average of 43,961 each year since destruction programs began."
(This total excludes 52,608 handguns imported for law enforcement and other official use, along with firearms for the military, airguns, muzzle-loaders and the customs import category 'Other'.)
Adjunct Associate Professor Philip Alpers is in Baltimore, Maryland to relate the Australian experience at the Summit on Reducing Gun Violence in America.
Organised by the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health and its patron, New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg, the two-day summit will hear invited experts from the United States, Great Britain, Australia and Brazil.
At its conclusion on Tuesday, the Summit's recommendations will feed into US Vice President Joe Biden's gun control task force which reports to the White House at the end of this month.
"In its scope and size, Australia's public health effort to reduce the risk of gun violence led the world," says Alpers.
"After melting down a million guns, the risk of an Australian dying by gunshot fell by more than half - plus, we've seen no mass shootings in 16 years. Only time will tell what effect this resurgence of firearm availability might have on the public health and safety of Australians."

Flag's long journey finally coming to an end
The cotton flag is a bit threadbare. And there are what look like water stains on the white stripes.
For Robert Rountree, however, it's than just a piece of cloth. It's a symbol of a soldier's service to the United States.
On Veterans Day today, Rountree will honor that soldier, whose name likely will remain lost to history.
With the help of cadets from the Madison High School Junior ROTC, the flag will be flown from a flagpole that stands at the entrance of Rountree's Feather Ridge neighborhood in Selma.
The flag's known story begins almost 20 years ago when Rountree, living in an East Side apartment, heard someone out on the street offering to sell it for $10.
"I asked him where he got it, and he said it was the flag that had been on his brother's coffin after he was killed in Vietnam," says Rountree, 63. "I asked him why he was selling it and he said, ''Cause I need a beer.'"
Rountree bought the flag and has had it ever since. He hung it on a wall for a while and occasionally hangs it outside the home he now shares with his sister.
Most of the time it's put away, folded in the traditional shape of a tri-cornered hat.
From time to time, he's tried finding it an appropriate home. There was, for example, the veterans' retirement home whose flag was stolen. But by the time he contacted them, someone else had already donated a flag.
Rountree has difficulty walking, and his hands are stiff and gnarled. In 2007, the man who made his living as a musician almost died from pneumonia affecting all four lung quadrants. In fact, he was clinically dead for more than two minutes before being revived.
There's no way of knowing, of course, whether the man who sold him the flag was telling the truth. Rountree didn't get his name, and he doesn't remember much about him, only that he was in his 30s and had dark hair.
"He was shorter than me, and I'm 6-foot-2," he says.
The flag itself yields only one clue: a label reading "Best" and "Valley Forge."
Based in Wyomissing, Pa., Valley Forge Flags did have a contract with the Defense Department to manufacture what are called interment flags, or casket flags, during the Vietnam War era, said Scott Liberman, company president and CEO.
He says one way to tell if the flag is authentic is to measure it. Typically, interment flags measure 5-by-91/2 feet. Rountree's is somewhat smaller, measuring 4 feet 5 inches by 9 feet 3 inches. But he has washed it several times, so it may have shrunk a bit, he said.
Liberman said there's no way to link this flag to a specific casualty.
"Flags are kept in general inventory and used as needed," he says. "They're not numbered in any way."
Rountree, however, remains convinced the flag is legitimate and looks forward to seeing it fly.
"There was a man who died for that flag," he says. "We may never know his name, but he deserves to be honored, whoever he was."
So today at 10 a.m., an honor guard from the Madison JROTC will unfold the flag and raise it in honor of that soldier and all unknown soldiers who died defending the United States.
A chaplain will speak, and at ceremony's end, the flag will be lowered and placed in a flag case and presented to the Madison cadets, who'll take it back to the school where it will be permanently displayed.
And then the flag's long journey will finally come to an end.

South America's first-ever river dolphin census through the Amazon and Orinoco Rivers and its tributaries has come to an end.
Santa Cruz, Bolivia "" South America's first-ever river dolphin census through the Amazon and Orinoco Rivers and its tributaries has come to an end.
In the last 600km stretch along the Itenez River in Bolivia, scientists — led by the Faunagua Foundation (Bolivia) and Omacha Foundation (Colombia), with support from WWF, the Wildlife Conservation Society and Whale and Dolphin Conservation Society — counted 941 pink river dolphins.
During the 14-month, 3,145km-long expedition, researchers not only spent long hours counting dolphins, but checked on the state of the rivers. River pollution, deforestation, indiscriminate capture and incidental fishing are some of the factors affecting the South American river dolphins, the two pink river dolphin species (Inia geoffrensis and Inia boliviensis), also known as the boto, as well as the grey river dolphin (Sotalia fluviatilis).
The boto is classified as Vulnerable by the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species.
"We have successfully completed the first South American dolphin river census and we are satisfied with all the data collected and what we witnessed," said Saulo Usma, WWF-Colombia's Freshwater Coordinator.
In previous legs of the expedition the team recorded: 485 in Bolvia (June 2007); 520 dolphins in the Colombian Amazon (March 2007); 818 in Peru (September 2006); 131 on Colombia's Meta River (August 2006); 40 in Ecuador (July 2006); and 270 dolphins in Venezuela (June 2006).
The survey expedition, which consists of scientists from Colombia, Peru, Ecuador, Bolivia and Venezuela, started in May 2006 in the Venezuelan city of Ciudad Bolivar.
"The census is just an initial phase towards protecting pink and grey dolphins in the Orinoco and Amazon Basins," Usma added.
"Now we have to take the data we gathered and translate it into an effective conservation strategy to preserve the species and its river habitat."

Salt evaporators.
They make me think of salt pans.
And the answer is............................................. Salterns! Gary and gS49 are right. The Koreans use this ancient method to gather in sea water and in turn allow the water to evaporate while the salt gathers on the bottom. The western coast of Korea is much more practical for salterns due to its many bays while the eastern shore is directly exposed to the Sea of Japan.
North Korea uses its massive salterns to supply it salt. South Korea's salterns are much more for historical/cultural purposes.

UFOs and the Main Stream Media
6 comments:
- cda said...
You are tarring the whole of the MSM with the same brush. Try not to generalise so much. There are people in the media favourable to your views. There are people in the same media who do not favour your views.
Keyhoe, decades ago, was sure he had proof of ETs visiting the earth. Perhaps you are equally sure you have the same proof (Roswell for instance). Probably after 60 years most of the MSM are bored to death with UFOs and ufology, but there are always exceptions - such as when a 'new' idea is promoted, such as that by Annie Jacobsen. Moreover, she is one of 'them', i.e. the MSM, so they listen, or pretend to listen, to her. But her story will die a quick death, so you need not get concerned over this.
If you wish to cast aspersions on the MSM, choose your targets more precisely. The MSM covers a vast range nowadays, including on-line media. Also, remember that there are MSM outside the US as well.
You say that some years ago you told a junior reporter that you could "prove much of what we said about UFOs". What did you claim to be able to prove, and how important or relevant was it? Surely you were not claiming to 'prove' an ET craft landed at Roswell.
The ET case is not helped one iota by one investigator (Tony Bragalia) putting forth the dotty idea that O'Donnell was himself the victim of a gigantic cover-up of an ET event by his superiors while at Area 51! One crazy scenario is simply being replaced by another.

Quite unlike Jacobsen's Mengele/Stalin/Horten brothers/genetically engineered mutant children story, there is nothing "dotty" or "crazy" about the idea that Jacobsen's source (Alfred O'Donnell) was being deliberately misled, i.e., fed a cover story. Counterintelligence does that sort of thing all the time. (E.g., did you know Roswell was actually caused by a weather balloon and crash dummies from the future--can you believe some people actually believe THAT crazy story?)
On the other hand, Bragalia is merely speculating about what happened to O'Donnell. As I wrote on Bragalia's blog, I thought a more likely scenario was what O'Donnell told ABC Nightline, that he was trying to help Annie's book, which I (as well as the ABC reporter) took to mean to help her sell books. Part of the reason I think that is I don't think a man like O'Donnell would be dumb enough to swallow a Mengele/Stalin story or think a Horten flying wing could actually be remotely flown to N.M. clear from Alaska.
Certainly O'Donnell wasn't reciting the modern USAF counterintel Mogul balloon/crash dummies line. Despite it's nuttiness, his Roswell story still had many elements of those crazy Ufologists: the retrieval and cover-up of an unusual craft with strange, small bodies having big heads and eyes. And nary a Mogul balloon or crash dummy in sight.

There are a lot of odd problems with Jacobsen's theory about Rosewell (see my own post: http://goblinsnest.blogspot.com/2011/05/in-world-of-speculation.html). However, it makes for comfortable copy for the press (provocative but doesn't need to be taken too seriously and BTW, it is good for attention). The mainstream media has largely gotten out of the UFO reporting business because it is too "odd," doesn't have much star appeal, and to do it right involves too much work. I have worked as a journalist. Trust me, this is what it pretty much comes down to.
- May 30, 2011 at 12:47 PM
MSM doesn't like UFOs because they never show up on cue. Clips of a hapless witness pointing at an empty sky have been done to death - and that's all there EVER is. As soon as the Zeta Reticulans put in an appearance during the Eyewitness News live shot, I guarantee the MSM will get it.

Anyone else familiar with the theory of the late Rpbert Blechtman? He first propounded it in response to crash dummies and I have no doubt he'd see this Stalin-Mengele hogwash as further evidence.
Friedman just commented there.

Overhead view of baklava
Originally uploaded by watchjennybake.
Erica of Erica's Edibles was our host for the Daring Baker's June challenge. Erica challenged us to be truly DARING by making homemade phyllo dough and then to use that homemade dough to make Baklava.
In true JennyBakes fashion, I waited until the day before I needed to post the challenge to try the recipe. I hemmed and hawed for a while, because I had enough hazelnuts, but also had some chocolate chips sitting around, so I ended up making what another Daring Baker's five year old has deemed "choklava," using a generous helping of chocolate chips in with the nut mixture.
I have made Danish pastry before, puff pastry (once, never again), croissants, and even strudel, but never had I attempted making phyllo dough before. I mean... the store makes it so easy, I can just buy a box and whip up practically anything! But I faced this challenge head on. I'm not afraid of tearing delicate dough. I don't mind spending two hours rolling out golf-ball-sized balls into paper thin dough sheets. No really, I don't. And really, that was time consuming but not terrible.
Several other Daring Bakers had said the recipe had too much syrup, and I wish I'd listened, because my end result was a bit too gooey and syrup for my tastes, and oh so sweet! I partly blame the chocolate, maybe it hampers moisture absorption a bit. It is still satisfying to pour the syrup over the pastries right out of the oven and listen to the sizzle and bubble. Twelve hours later, though, they were still wading in the goo. I still gave them to people. If there is a lesson over and over, it is to trust my instincts!
A few changes I made in the recipe, which you can see on Erica's blog once she posts, was to fiddle a bit with the spices - I added cardamom and used more orange than was called for, and the entire house smelled like the holidays! I think if I made phyllo again, I would use my old lowfat use nonstick cooking spray between the sheets trick, and make something savory with it.

Contact Form 7 is an excellent WordPress plugin, and the CF7 DTX Plugin makes it even more awesome by adding dynamic content capabilities.
While default values in Contact Form 7 are static. CF7 DTX lets you create pre-populated fields based on other values. Some examples might include:
- Auto-filling a URL
- Auto-filling a Post ID, title, or slug
- Pre-populating a Product Number
- Referencing other content on the site
- Populating with post info
- Populating with user info
- Populating with custom fields
- Any value you can write a shortcode for
There are many more case-specific examples. I searched for a solution, and there are some decent hacks out there. Many of them are
explored in this forum topic:
Contact Form 7 Input Fields Values as PHP Get-Variables.
However, they all involved hacking the current Contact Form 7 code, which means next time the plugin is updated their edits will be
overwritten. That's bad.
This Dynamic Text Extension plugin provides a more elegant solution that leaves the Contact Form 7 Plugin intact.
This plugin provides a new tag type for the Contact Form 7 Plugin. It allows the dynamic generation of content for a text input box via any shortcode.
For example, it comes with several built-in shortcodes that will allow the Contact Form to be populated from any $_GET PHP variable or any info from the
get_bloginfo() function, among others. See below for included shortcodes.
Don't see the shortcode you need on the list? You can write a custom one! Any shortcode that returns a string value can be used here. The included shortcodes just cover the most common scenarios, but the plugin provides the flexibility for you to grab any value you have access to programmatically.
After installing and activating the plugin, the Contact Form 7 tag generator will have 2 new tag types: Dynamic Text Field and Dynamic Hidden Field. Most of the options will be
familiar to Contact Form 7 users. There are two important fields:
Dynamic Value
This field takes a shortcode, with two important provisions:
- The shortcode should NOT include the normal square brackets ([ and ]). So, instead of [CF7_GET key='value'] you would use CF7_GET key='value' .
- Any parameters in the shortcode must use single quotes. That is: CF7_GET key='value' and not CF7_GET key="value"
Uneditable Option
As these types of fields should often remain uneditable by the user, there is a checkbox to turn this option on (Not applicable for hidden fields).
The plugin includes 2 basic shortcodes for use with the Dynamic Text extension. You can write your own as well – any shortcode will work
PHP GET Variables
Want to use a variable from the PHP GET array? Just use the CF7_GET shortcode. For example, if you want to get the foo parameter from the url
Enter the following into the "Dynamic Value" input
CF7_GET key='foo'
Your Content Form 7 Tag will look something like this:
[dynamictext dynamicname "CF7_GET key='foo'"]
Your form's dynamicname text input will then be pre-populated with the value of foo, in this case, bar
PHP POST Variables
New in version 1.0.3!
Grab variables from the $_POST array. The shortcode is much like the GET shortcode:
CF7_POST key='foo'
Your Content Form 7 Tag will look something like this:
[dynamictext dynamicname "CF7_POST key='foo'"]
Blog Info
Want to grab some information from your blog like the URL or the sitename? Use the CF7_bloginfo shortcode. For example, to get the site's URL:
Enter the following into the "Dynamic Value" input
CF7_bloginfo show='url'
Your Content Form 7 Tag will look something like this:
[dynamictext dynamicname "CF7_bloginfo show='url'"]
Your form's dynamicname text input will then be pre-populated with your site's URL
Post Info
New in version 1.0.3!
Retrieve information about the current post/page (that the contact form is displayed on). The shortcode works as follows:
CF7_get_post_var key='title' <– retrieves the Post's Title
CF7_get_post_var key='slug' <– retrieves the Post's Slug
You can also retrieve any parameter from the $post object. Just set that as the key value, for example 'post_date'
The Contact Form 7 Tag would look like:
[dynamictext dynamicname "CF7_get_post_var key='title'"]
Current URL
New in version 1.0.3!
Retrieve the current URL. The shortcode takes no parameters:
So your Contact Form 7 Tag would look like:
[dynamictext dynamicname "CF7_URL"]
Custom Fields
New in version 1.0.4!
Retrieve custom fields from the current post/page. Just set the custom field as the key in the shortcode.
The dynamic value input becomes:
CF7_get_custom_field key='my_custom_field'
And the tag looks like this:
[dynamictext dynamicname "CF7_get_custom_field key='my_custom_field'"]
For the purposes of including an email address, you can obfuscate the custom field value by setting obfuscate='on' in the shortcode.
Current User Info
Get data about the current user – assuming they are logged in. Defaults to user name, but you can set the key to any valid value in
[dynamictext dynamicname "CF7_get_current_user"]
Referrer URL
Get the referral URL, if it exists. Note that this is not necessarily reliable as not all browsers send this data.
[dynamictext dynamicname "CF7_referrer"]

Normal 0 A handful of Democratic and Republican primaries across the country Tuesday revealed that the torrent of public discontent over the current state of affairs in the nation's capital shows little sign of abating. But what do the results mean for the November elections and President Obama's political fortunes?
- Mark McKinnon of the Daily Beast says that establishment is on notice after Tuesday's elections. "What is clear and consistent is that voters are mad and don't trust anyone or anything anymore. If you're running for office, it's tough to be an incumbent. It's tough to run out of Washington. "The bumper sticker for this year ought to be: Wanted: Candidates. No experience preferred."
- The Atlantic's Marc Ambinder believes that the Democrats can hold seats like John Murtha's in Pennsylvania if they choose their candidates wisely. "Dems can be competitive in races if they run the right candidates the right way. And Republicans aren't gonna cruise to victory in the fall."
- Dan Balz and Chris Cillizza of the Washington Post think Tuesday's outcome holds unnerving signs for both parties. "Democrats remain on the defensive heading toward November, in large part because of divisions over Obama's agenda, the high jobless rate and the size of the federal budget deficit. The Kentucky race underscored the energy of anti-government conservatives who intend to shake up the capital," they write. "But the results in Pennsylvania's special House election will raise questions about whether Republicans will be able to take control of the House in November, as many of their leaders have predicted."
- Paul Mirengoff of the conservative-leaning blog Powerline sees Democrats running from their real beliefs in order to stay electorally competitive. "They are ... pulling the wool over voters' eyes."

The Skiff e-reader, unveiled Wednesday at CES, has a special feature that will appeal to newspaper and magazine junkies: a flexible screen.
The Skiff is just a quarter of an inch thick, and its E Ink has no glass — in its place is a foil material that's both durable and bendy. It doesn't hurt that the display is huge, measuring 11.5 inches diagonal with 1,200 x 1,600-pixel resolution.
The Skiff gets content via Sprint's 3G wireless network, but it'll also work over Wi-Fi. Skiff is owned by Hearst, so you'll at least be able to get Good Housekeeping when the e-reader becomes available later this year. No price yet.
U.S. & World
The day's top national and international news.
The Skiff honestly can't come fast enough for us. We've been saying for years that periodicals are the true e-reader market, and having a big, flexible screen is a huge step in that direction. Now if only it would display color we'd really have something here.

Public Comment
Press Release: Opponents Declare Victory Agains Measure S
Stand Up for the Right to Sit Down, the campaign organized against Berkeley's proposed sitting prohibition, Measure S, has finally declared victory in the November election. As of the close of the day on Thursday, Measure S was behind by close to 2,500 votes—4.6% of the vote. Members of the campaign do not expect any more ballots to be counted, and believe that the Alameda County Registrar of Voters is now engage solely in verifying its count.
"This is a major victory for Berkeley," said Campaign Chair Osha Neumann. "We were up against the best-funded campaign that Berkeley has ever seen—nearly $120,000, but we won with a dedicated ground campaign, and clever outreach actions that spoke directly to voters about the absurdity of sitting laws, and about the realities of homelessness." The largest campaign budgets in recent years have been approximately $60,000—only half of the expenditures for the Yes on S campaign.
Stand Up for the Right to Sit Down says that while the election is over, the campaign's work is not. Pattie Wall, Treasurer of the campaign, said, "Berkeleyans have clearly said, 'Yes, there's a problem, and we want solutions. But we don't think that the same, tired, mean-spirited approach that has failed in other cities is a real solution for Berkeley.' Mayor Bates has spoken about an interest in working with 'creative minds' on solutions to homelessness. Homeless people and service providers have been pushing for real solutions for quite some time. Now that the Berkeley electorate has clearly rejected criminalizing efforts like Measure S, we look forward to collaborative, less divisive work with the community at large, homeless people, small businesses, service providers, and politicians who are sincere about the hard work of consensus-building."
Bob Offer-Westort, Campaign Coordinator, says that while he looks forward to the work ahead, he hopes that the campaign is also an ending for a certain kind of politics. "On Election Day, it appears that members of the Downtown Berkeley Association paid homeless people recruited by Options Recovery Services to distribute Berkeley Democratic Club slatecards that deliberately misrepresented the endorsements of the Democratic Party, including claiming that the Democrats endorsed Measure S. When a campaign that was double the budget of any campaign in recent history found that it couldn't buy the election, it tried to steal it. This is a tactic that is not only deceitful, but, by using homeless people to unwittingly promote an anti-homeless law, also cruel. I don't think that speaks to how people in Berkeley try to solve problems, and I don't think it speaks to the values of the small, local businesses of the Downtown Berkeley Association: I think that the leadership of the DBA, the BDC, and Options became so desperate to win, that they went with the advice of their $72,000 San Francisco political consultant, instead of their own values, those of their members, or those of this town. I hope that the results of the election prove that these tactics just don't work in Berkeley. We're happy that we won. We hope that future elections will involve a return to honesty and civility."

LRSKEL1TG 20MOA Extended Skeletonized 1 inch MSR Mount Tactical Gray
The LR-SKEL Mount offers 20 MOA built-in slop for long range precision shooting. This allows additional elevation adjustment in your optic when shooting ranges over 600 yards. The LR-SKEL Mount is CNC precision machined from 6061 aluminum and we've been able to reduce the weight by over 30%, compared to our R.A.M.P. Mount by utilizing a skeletonized body and ring caps. The LR-SKEL provides an additional inch of forward cantilever, compared to the original SKEL Mount to provide proper eye relief when using scopes with large eye boxes and gives extra space behind the mount for accessories like the Warne A645 45? side mount adapter.
Read a review by John Crump at?AmmoLand.com?
- 20 MOA built-in for precision long range adjustments.
- Lightweight, skeletonized aluminum body and caps to reduce overall weight without sacrificing reliability.
- #8 Torx style fasteners with steel threaded inserts to prevent stripping.
- Extended design provides over 2 inches of forward cantilever for additional eye relief.
- Places your optic at the Ideal Height for MSR and similar platforms.
- Dual 1/2″ tactical nut attachment, 65 in/lb. of torque is recommended.
Loosen both nuts on the LR-SKEL Mount and install on your Picatinny style rail with the cantilever forward (Warne recommends mounting the LR-SKEL with the front cross bolt in the farthest forward slot on AR15 Flat Tops.) Push the LR-SKEL Mount towards the muzzle and tighten both hex nuts to 65 in/lb. Remove the four cap screws from each top cap with the supplied T-15 wrench and remove the top caps. Place your scope in the LR-SKEL Mount and replace the top caps and screws. Slowly tighten cap screws evenly and leave loose enough to adjust for eye relief. Level the reticle and tighten the cap screws in a crisscross pattern to 25 in/lb.

Darren Aronofsky has been suffering some serious commitment issues since wrapping "Black Swan" last year, could it be he's finally ready to settle down?
Aronofsky is considering an opportunity to direct George Clooney in "Human Nature," about a man who is cryogenically frozen and wakes up years later to discover that humans have been turned into domesticated pets by a superior species, reported Vulture.
The script was written 15 years ago, by little know scribe named Jeff Welch, and Akiva Goldsman ("Jonah Hex") plans to produce.
U.S. & World
In the past year or so, Aronofsky's name has been bandied about in connection with a "RoboCop" remake, a film starring Angelina Jolie as a barren, homicidal cuckold, "Gangster Squad," "Machine Man" and "Wolverine 2," so we'll temper our enthusiasm for this project, though we think he and Clooney could make some beautiful music together.

Previous Chapter | Table of Contents | Next Chapter
Father, You Are Just a Wastrel
Cheng Jun Man's words dazed Feng Jin Yuan. He blankly asked: "What is the point of a receipt for a loan? Where is the need for one?"
"Naturally, the receipt is for the 200 thousand taels owed to second young miss." Cheng Jun Man blinked and solemnly told him: "The money was borrowed by the elder madam, and it was spent on the Feng family. Currently, second young miss is only 13 years of age and has not yet become of age. She has no obligation to pay the Feng family's debts. Moreover, even if she was of age, she would have married into someone else's home. She would have entered the imperial family's register, and she would have even less reason to shoulder our Feng family's debts. Today, second young miss brought out 200 thousand taels to relieve the Feng family of an emergency. We should feel grateful, but we definitely cannot accept it as if it's natural. That's why husband must prepare a receipt for a loan. A period should be set for when this money shall be repaid. Only then would we not become subject of ridicule, nor will we be looked down upon by our children."
Her words caused Feng Jin Yuan's face to alternate between bright red and ashen white. He hated that he could not find a hole to squeeze into, but at this very moment, Zi Rui spoke up: "Zi Rui has not returned to the capital for half a year. This family, has it already been ruined by father to the point that not even 200 thousand taels can be brought out?"
Feng Jin Yuan opened his mouth and wanted to refute it, but Zi Rui continued: "I remember that before marrying that eldest princess from Qian Zhou, father spent a large amount of money to buy new things for her." While he said this, he shook his head, "Father, you are the head of the family, but why do you only think of yourself when doing things. Why can you not think of your children?"
Zi Rui was young, and he was also short; however, the words that he spoke were those of an adult. To be scolded by such a small child, Feng Jin Yuan had no face left. He trembled and pointed at Zi Rui and wanted to curse at him; however, Cheng Jun Mei was the first to speak: "Young master is his Majesty's junior disciple. Husband should think carefully before speaking."
Feng Jin Yuan felt that his life was truly unfortunate. One daughter had become a county princess and one son had become the Emperor's junior disciple, which cause him to feel even more helpless. His two head wives were the Empress' nieces, and he could only speak with them from a lower position. The matriarch was the only one that he could speak to, but now, the matriarch had passed away.
His heart ached, and he finally choked up and began to cry.
This was the first time that he truly cried tears after the matriarch had died. While crying, he walked toward the mourning hall. After he kneeled in front of the coffin, his cries became wails.
The other people also returned with him and watched him cry. When he finally grew tired from the crying and his voice grew quiet, Cheng Jun man finally said: "If husband does not wish to bear this debt, we can use the two hamlets left behind by the elder madam to pay it."
Feng Jin Yuan had no objections and nodded without thinking, accepting the arrangement.
Feng Yu Heng looked around at the people in the room that all had their own thoughts. She sneered to herself and said: "Of the two hamlets, one will be given to Xiang Rong, and one will be given to Fen Dai. This will be used to supplement their dowries when they get married." After saying this, she once again pulled Zi Rui and Xiang Rong's hands to return to Tong Sheng pavilion.
Along the way, Xiang Rong said to her: "Second sister, this hamlet was something that you paid money for. Xiang Rong will not take it."
She did not have any grand intentions. She just shook Xiang Rong's hand and said: "Since it has been given to you, just accept it. In the future, no matter who you marry, having a larger dowry will be better, and you will not be bullied by the people in the husband's family. If the elder madam had borrowed the money for herself, I would not have done anything to help; however, she had done it out of good will. She had borrowed the money to help the granduncles settle down in their new homes. Back when we returned to Feng Tong county, the clan elder had treated me quite well. Spending this bit of money is not a loss."
With her having said this much, Xiang Rong could no longer refuse without looking argumentative, thus she nodded and sincerely said: "Thank you, second sister."
The group returned to Tong Sheng pavilion, and Zi Rui rushed forward upon stepping inside the manor. Feng Yu Heng looked up and saw Yao Xian standing there with his arms open, waiting for that child to dive into him.
Seeing Zi Rui get picked up then spun around by Yao Xian, she seemed to have returned to her own childhood. She had also been picked up by her grandfather and spun around. She also recalled when she had pulled on his beard and called him a deity old man. This all felt as though it had happened yesterday, but in the blink of an eye, this was already a different world. Fortunately, the heavens were sympathetic, and she was able to reunite with her grandfather in Da Shun. This was the true fortune amidst all of the misfortune.
She walked forward and patted Zi Rui, saying: "Maternal grandfather is getting older, and you have become quite heavy. You'll end up tiring maternal grandfather."
Zi Rui hugged Yao Xian around the neck and refused to let go, saying seriously: "Then Zi Rui will eat less starting today. I will have my body become lighter. Like this, maternal grandfather will be able to continue holding Zi Rui."
Yao Xian laughed loudly and carried Zi Rui over to Yao shi's courtyard. While walking, he said: "Just eat as much as you want. No matter how heavy you get, grandfather will be able to pick you up. But you need to go see your mother now. She has missed you greatly!"
Feng Yu Heng watched the old and young walk away, and the smile on her face could not be removed. Xiang Rong tugged at her sleeve: "Second sister, I'm really hungry."
Feng Yu Heng was also very hungry. Originally, she wanted to eat as soon as she had returned to the manor. Who knew that there would be so many problems in the Feng manor. With this delay, the sky had already become dark.
She quickly ordered the servants to prepare some food. She then brought Xiang Rong back to her own courtyard.
Just as the food was served, Yao Xian also arrived. The three got together and ate the meal. Xiang Rong ate while staring at Yao Xian, and this caused Yao Xian to feel a little unnatural. He put down his bowl and felt his own face then helplessly said: "Third girl, if you continue staring like this, maternal grandfather will not be able to continue eating."
Xiang Rong let out a "pft" and began laughing. She quickly helped Yao Xian pick up his chopsticks then said with a laugh: "It would not be good if maternal grandfather could not eat. Xiang Rong has just missed maternal grandfather. When maternal grandfather took the uncles and cousins away, Lady Yao and second sister left not too long later. Xiang Rong has been waiting in the manor this entire time for all of you to return. Now that you have finally returned, I am very happy."
Mentioning the matters from before, the group felt a little emotional. Yao Xian patted Xiang Rong's head and helplessly said: "The blame can only be placed on your father for not being anything good. He does not take care of doting on his own children, instead focusing his energy on currying favor with those in power. Even now, when he has fallen to such a degree, he does not appear to have given up."
Feng Yu Heng shook her head, "He's not someone that can give up on things. It's just that he no longer has Feng Chen Yu to provide him with the position of empress, thus I do not know what his future plans are." As she said this, she turned her gaze on Xiang Rong, and Xiang Rong's expression sank. She understood what her elder sister meant. "Don't worry." She patted the back of Xiang Rong's hand. "You are still young. Even if Feng Jin Yuan has this sort of idea, who knows what can happen in these four years."
"That's right. "Yao Xian was in agreement with these words, "We do not know what might happen tomorrow. Third girl, you should not think too much about it."
Xiang Rong nodded and put on a smile.
Feng Yu Heng had no intention of pursuing this matter any further. Either way, there would be four more years. This girl needed to be tempered a little more, but there was a matter of utmost importance that had to be taken care of first. She discussed with Yao Xian: "Paternal grandfather, would you be fine with coming into the palace with me tomorrow?"
"What? Go into the palace?" Yao Xian was startled and waved his hand: "No good, no good! It's not that you don't know, I…" He spoke to this point then paused and looked at Xiang Rong. He then changed his tone: "It's not that you don't know, my return this time goes against an imperial decree. The Emperor still has not permitted me to return."
Xiang Rong was an understanding child. How could she not clearly see through this situation, thus she quickly finished eating the food in her bowl and put it down, saying: "Maternal grandfather, second sister, you two can keep chatting. I will go play with Zi Rui for a while. That little guy has not returned for a long time, and I was quite missing him." After saying this, she got up and ran off.
Yao Xian watched Xiang Rong's departing figure and helplessly shook his head, "This third girl seems to have been very close with Yao Xian. Unfortunately, I could not find too many things relating to her in Yao Xian's memories."
Feng Yu Heng told him: "That's because the real Yao Xian hated Feng Jin Yuan's concubines. Even if An shi was brought in because of Yao shi's decision, he still felt ill-at-ease. The Yao family has a rule. A man shall not take a concubine, and a woman shall never be a concubine; however, Feng Jin Yuan continued to bring concubines into the manor. Tell me, what sort of good memory could the old Yao Xian have of a concubine's child."
The old man nodded, "That's right. I say, A-Heng, you clearly know that I am not the real Yao Xian. Why do you still want for me to go into the palace? The old Yao Xian has plenty of memories of this old emperor. Those two were very close. If I were to make a mistake and reveal something, would it not cause trouble?"
Feng Yu Heng laughed, "Grandfather, oh grandfather, what mistakes are there to make? Your soul has inhabited this body. It's not easy to replace it. No matter how anyone pokes at your mistakes, you are definitely the real Yao Xian!"
But he still shook his hand: "No good, no good. I still have not prepared myself mentally to enter the palace."
"What preparation is needed?" Feng Yu Heng felt helpless, "Although the current Emperor has an explosive temper towards other people, in reality, he is someone that values comradery. Moreover, I am hoping that grandfather can go into the palace tomorrow to stall the Emperor, such that he will not go and cause trouble for imperial concubine Yun."
"Imperial concubine Yun?" Yao Xian was startled and began to search through his memories. It seemed that he had a bit of an impression, but it was nothing too profound.
Feng Yu Heng saw his expression and knew that there was no real drama, but she still felt unreconciled and asked: "Is there really no memory? Regarding imperial concubine Yun, she is his Highness the ninth prince's birth mother. Grandfather, imperial concubine Yun has a strange feeling for Yao Xian!"
The old man pondered for a while then helplessly shook his head, "I can't remember. The old Yao Xian's memory only reveals a time from when he was young and lived in a mountain for a while. During that time, he was always treating someone. It was a woman around 20-years-old. I cannot recall the details of that situation, nor can I remember what that woman looked like."
Feng Yu Heng furrowed her brow and thought about how a young Yao Xian had treated the illness of a 20-year-old woman. That woman definitely could not be imperial concubine Yun. The age was off. Who could that have been?
She could not figure out the situation and felt a little annoyed, but she still felt unreconciled and asked him: "Can you really not go into the palace? In truth, even if grandfather does not go in tomorrow, you will still need to go sooner or later."
Yao Xian was very resolute, "If I can delay it by one day, I will delay it by one day. When the Yao family left the capital, he told him to take good care of you three, but you were still sent by Feng Jin Yuan to that sort of place to live and die on your own. Just thinking about it makes me angry. I will not go into the palace! Even if I die, I will not go into the palace!"
Feng Yu Heng knew just how stubborn her grandfather could be, thus she did not say anything further. Instead, she just handed him some ribs: "Eat a little more. This was made by the chef from Refined Deity Building. You still don't know about Refined Deity Building, right? When the Feng family has finished conducting its funeral, I will bring grandfather over for a meal."
As the grandparent and grandchild spoke, Huang Quan quickly ran back from the outside, "Young miss." She arrived in front of Feng Yu Heng and urgently said: "When this servant was coming back from the government office, this servant saw Duan Mu Qing's carriage procession. I heard that they are about to return to the North. The wind lifted one of the curtains, and I saw that the person inside seemed to be… his Highness the third prince!"

Breastfeeding is one of the many wonderful ways for you to bond with your newborn, and the benefits of doing so can't be overstated. While should be a pleasant, comfortable experience, it's not uncommon to experience mild levels of tenderness or discomfort in the beginning.
Here's what all new moms should know about breastfeeding pain relief.
Soothe soreness.
During your first week of breastfeeding, nipple soreness is often the result of normal postpartum skin changes. Treat sore or cracked nipples with medical grade lanolin ointment or hydrogel dressing, which will help encourage skin to heal without crusting or scabbing. We like Medela's Tender Care Lanolin and Hydrogel Pads. Fresh breastmilk, which has antibacterial properties, can also offer relief with the added benefit of reducing your chances for infection (isn't Mother Nature smart?).
Learn the latch.
Continuing nipple pain may be the result of an improper latch. An effective latch ensures that the most sensitive part of your nipple is pulled deeply into your baby's mouth, but latching poorly can cause your baby to grab your nipple shaft instead, indicated by a nipple that looks creased or pointy. Talk with your healthcare provider or lactation consultant, who can help with latching technique and positioning.
Feed frequently.
Doing so can help with breastfeeding pain relief in a few different ways. First, it will help minimize engorgement, or breasts that are full, firm, and tender. But short, frequent feedings (8 to 12 times in 24 hours) also mean your baby won't come to mealtime quite as hungry, and will consequently suck less vigorously, says La Leche League International. Expressing a little bit of milk before feeding can help soften your nipples and make it easier for baby to latch on. And if you miss a feeding, use hand expression or a breast pump to remove excess milk.
Go hot and cold.
When dealing with engorgement, help get your milk flowing by applying moist heat on your breasts or taking a warm shower before feeding. (Five minutes or less is plenty of time, though, as more could make swelling worse.) Post feeding, get additional swelling relief by applying a cold compress for 10 minutes.
Watch for warning signs.
Call your doctor if you experience severe engorgement, if pain is so intense that it prevents you from breastfeeding, or if your baby still seems hungry after feeding. Also, be aware of symptoms for mastitis, or infection of the breast tissue, characterized by breast warmth, swelling, and tenderness; pain or a burning sensation while breastfeeding; skin redness; or a fever higher than 101°. If you experience any of these symptoms, call your doctor immediately.

One of the most active Lowrider scenes in the early '80s was that of the East Bay Region of California. Back then, the area thrived with an abundance of Lowriders and the streets were abuzz with the roaring sound from these majestic machines. One person lucky enough to be around during this time period in the culture was Sal Alvarez, who spent many days with his two brothers at their grandmother's home in nearby Daly City, CA. The siblings enjoyed many afternoons on their grandmother's porch in awe of the amazing Lowriders they saw driving down the block. Sal remembers it like it happened yesterday. "We used to point at the cars and we used to say 'that's my car, that's my car,'" recalls Sal with a smile. One day as they were hanging out on their grandmother's porch, a red '54 from Midnight Sensations Car Club passed by and caught young Sal's attention and he never let go of that vision. "From that day, I knew that one day we (brothers) were going to own cars like those," he says.
The dream of owning a '54 never left Sal, although he had grown up and started a family. He chose to move out of the East Bay and while his family became his priority, his search for the elusive '54 continued. "A friend of mine had a partner that had one for sale in Turlock, CA.," explains Sal. One look was all it took, and after seeing the car, Sal knew that was the car he wanted and wasted no time in making the deal to bring it home. "When I first brought the car home, my wife told me that the junkyard was down the street," says Sal laughing. Luckily for him, it didn't take his supportive wife long before she had a change of heart.
A true team effort, the couple slowly started buying pieces for the car, and the journey to complete Sal's dream was underway. The car motivated him, and he began doing whatever he could to speed up the process. "Every bit of extra money that I would get from working overtime would be spent on sending out a piece to either get chromed or engraved," says Sal. While this was painstaking enough, Sal ran into an even bigger mess when attempting to get the '54 painted. After the car came back from the paint shop with its Candy Brandywine paintjob, Sal noticed that the doors and trunk were a different color than the rest of the car. "I took the car back to the painter and told him that the car had different colors." The painter wanted to charge Sal the full price to repaint the car again, so Sal was forced to take him to court. "The judge asked me what I wanted, and I simply told him that I wanted what I paid for; to have the car all one color." The painter agreed to repaint the car, but would not repaint it with any candy colors. Frustration set in and Sal looked for another option, which came to him almost immediately."The day we were driving home from court, my wife saw a red Lexus, and we decided to go with that color," he says. The relief would be short-lived as yet another obstacle came Sal's way; he lost his job. Naturally, he did what he had to do. "Our car wasn't our priority; it was our family that came first, so it took us longer than normal to complete the build," he laments.
Nevertheless, Sal pushed on and built this incredible '54, which you now see before you. When it came time to name it, he looked to the best place a builder can look for inspiration; his family. Sal's older brother, Jose, joined Nite Life Car Club in the early '90s with a mini truck called "1TOY2NV." "We grew up without a dad, and Jose who is only three years older than me, had to quit school to start working because he had to step in to take on a father role for my other brother, Mike, and I. So the name of my car is my own little way of paying tribute to him because that was the name of his first full custom vehicle," Sal explains with pride.
Sal would like to dedicate this article to his supportive wife. He would also like to thank Rudy Pena, the Central Valley chapter of Luxurious Car Club, and Chuy, who painted the top of his car. In closing, Sal also wishes to send a special thanks to all of the Family First club members. Great work, Sal!

Coastal First Nations has pulled out of a critical Northern Gateway hearing on Enbridge's marine oil spill response plans, saying the hearings have drained the organization's financial resources and are providing few answers.
"We might as well keep our powder dry and save it for court," CFN executive director Art Sterritt said Monday, expressing dissatisfaction over the cost of attending the hearings and over what he called "a difficult time" getting answers from Northern Gateway applicant Enbridge.
Further, he said, the hearing process has been stripped of its legitimacy by the federal government's omnibus budget bill.
The organization, which represents nine First Nations groups on the north and central coast, lost confidence in the hearings after Ottawa relaxed environmental regulations in the 2012 budget bill, Sterritt said.
"We are tapped out. We would be jeopardizing the whole organization if we were to continue," Sterritt said.
Two of the nine CFN members will be at the Prince Rupert hearing — the Heiltsuk from Bella Bella and the Haida — where Enbridge officials are answering questions on their maritime spill prevention and response capabilities to the federal and provincial governments, aboriginal groups, non-governmental organizations and other registered interveners.
Sterritt said Coastal First Nations has spent triple the amount of the $261,000 provided to it by the Canadian Environmental Assessment Agency so it could be represented at the Joint Review Panel hearings. The hearings, which have a public and technical component, have been taking place throughout B.C. and Alberta since January 2012. The technical question-and-answer format is taking longer than anyone expected, he said.
"We are having a very difficult time getting straight answers or getting any answer at all. We are trying to use the judicial idea of the process to try to get those answers out of them about the science they are putting on the table," Sterritt said. "We sit there with half a dozen Enbridge lawyers and 20 technical people basically stonewalling us while we try to ask questions."
"And right smack in the middle of it we have had this funding problem."
Enbridge spokesman Paul Stanway said it's unfortunate that Coastal First Nations has pulled out of the process but he defended Enbridge's role in the hearings. Enbridge has spent $300 million so far on the process, most of it spent on environmental and engineering studies now being presented at the questioning phase of the review.
"That money is being spent responsibly to answer the questions that people want answered. It is not being spent on lawyers," he said. "I find it difficult to understand that somebody could say we are not answering questions. We have been answering questions for over a year and we are answering them in detail. It is unfortunate that we don't get the attention paid to the detailed part of the hearings compared to, for example, the oral statements or the protests that happened outside some of the hearings at major venues."
He said Enbridge has provided First Nations affected by its proposal with $12 million in funding so they can be involved in the hearings, including some individual coastal First Nations, but has not provided Sterritt's organization with funding.
Isabelle Perrault of the Canadian Environmental Assessment Agency said in an email that the agency made $3 million in funding available to help aboriginal groups participate in the review process — including $261,000 to the Coastal First Nations group and $736,610 to three separate coastal First Nations.
"The joint review panel process is the primary mechanism for aboriginal groups to learn about the project and present their views to the federal government," she said.
Coastal First Nations is only one of many aboriginal organizations involved in the Northern Gateway issue, said environmentalist Tzeporah Berman.
"The one thing over a hundred Nations have in common is that they are all opposing this pipeline," she said.
The Prince Rupert hearing is one of five formal hearings where interveners can question Enbridge directly on pipeline impacts. The questioning phase is a separate and more technical process from the public oral statement sessions, which wrapped up last week in Kelowna.
B.C. Environment Minister Terry Lake is to be at the Prince Rupert hearing Tuesday, where government officials are taking part in the cross-examination of Northern Gateway representatives on key issues around marine spills.
The Prince Rupert hearing is a followup on the last round of questioning regarding land-based spill response asked in Prince George in October 2012, the ministry stated in a news release.

Are European heads of state to blame for the current employment crisis in Europe? Should they all be replaced, en masse, or is there a deeper truth? To what extent do CENTRAL BANKS, which operate beyond the powers of elected executive officers, bear responsibility for unemployment? Does an electable candidate have to have a platform that seeks to reform that relationship?
Washington Post Slide Show
European Unemployment
"While austerity measures were introduced to ease the financial crisis by lowering public debt, they are also slowing down economies as government spending drops off. This is also pushing unemployment higher and threatening the continent with recession. Some experts urge leaders to instead loosen spending to encourage growth. This is a battle between Keynesian economics and the free market, whether increased government spending would save the economy or ultimately destroy it by replacing the free market with dependency on government.
But many European countries have completely mismanaged their budgets for continued government stimulus, which lends to the argument of free market supports that Keynesian economics is unsustainable. Greece is relying on the most recent bailout to pay its bills and creditors want to see further cuts. Spain is also cutting spending, while dealing with a revived separatist movement of the Catalan province that does not want to pay the country's bills. Both of these countries have the eurozone's highest unemployment rates of 25 percent apiece."

Dior Cherie Bow spring 2013
I picked up the lighter toned eye palette, Rose Ballerine (£41). It contains a shimmery candy pink, frosty pale pink, frosty/iridescent peachy pink, metallic/frost white, and a shimmery grey/taupe.
The colours go on very sheer and although they have the smooth, creamy feel I would expect from Dior, I think these have gone a step too far with the softness (apart from the grey), so much in fact that any type of blending seems to obliterate the pigment and they need to be patted on. Furthermore, even with an eye base I find by mid day I have significant fading.
In terms of the overall look, whilst this is prone to looking too frosty it does give a brightening very feminine look which I can't deny is quite pretty.
I selected one lipstick from the Cherie Bow display what I though was the pink lipstick from the collection, unfortunately I later found out that the counter only had Espiegle and had substituted Candide and Charmante with shades from the regular line and had a fourth shade which I had unwittingly picked up.
I think this is misleading and I will have to check names of seasonal releases beforehand if I go to this counter as I can't trust that they will actually display the correct products. So the colour I have is called Bow (£21). Its a cool very sheer baby pink,with a glowy/gloss finish.
The colour gives me that overly cool milky frostbitten look, its unflattering on me. It feels comfortable on and quite light weight but the colour does not have any longevity.
There were a few other items I wanted from the spring collection but I just feel a bit sour grapes about it now so don't think I'll bother ...flounces off...
I bought these from Boots

It annoys me when brands substitute for sold out/missing items from a collection. Mac used to do it, but they've stopped now - they just mark items as sold out. Sorry you got caught by it :(ReplyDelete
I quite liked the look of the deeper pink lipstick from the collection (Espiegle, maybe?) - they do seem a lot sheerer than the regular Addict lipsticks though.
The taupe eyeshadow is really pretty! I'm sorry they gave you the wrong lip colour, that's so terrible. The colour you got is nice though!ReplyDelete
Aw... Replica, I'm sorry your haul didn't make you happy. I hate it when I have high expectations about something and only to be disappointed like that. Boo!ReplyDelete
Yes, it didn't quite turn out as expected, thinking about it I don't have much luck with previous Dior spring releases so should learn really ;) xReplyDeleteReplies
Flounces? I think you're very restrained. I think I'd probably start trying to sabotage the counter using rogue testers as missiles!!ReplyDelete
The only thing I've picked up so far from this collection is the pink nail polish, but I'm very tempted by this eye palette! :)ReplyDelete
