Winter Solstice
Season's Greetings!
Season's greetings from All4ielts! In this article we'll be taking a look at the origins of Christmas, the day celebrated by Christians as the birthday of Jesus Christ.
Celebrated on 25 December in the Catholic and Protestant world and on 7 January in the Eastern Orthodox world (according to the Julian calendar which is still in use in Eastern Christianity), the time around this date had long been a major holiday.
The Winter Solstice, the shortest day and darkest night in the northern hemisphere, is celebrated on 21 December. This time of the year, in the darkest days of winter, was traditionally a time for partying and merry-making with the harvest in and little work to do in the fields.
In ancient Rome the festival held at this time of the year was known as Saturnalia in honour of the agricultural god Saturn. It was a time of wild partying when the normal order was turned upside down with the masters serving their slaves.
We've come up with a sample answer for speaking part 2 that describes that mysterious historical monument, Stonehenge, where people gather every year on 21 December to celebrate the Winter Solstice.
Describe a historical place that you enjoyed visiting
You should say:
and say why you enjoyed visiting it
Here's the candidate's notes:
And here's their sample answer:
Last year I attended a language course in the UK and as part of the course we went on a lot of different day trips, so I'm going to tell you about one which I really enjoyed which was a visit we made to Stonehenge.
Stonehenge is a really interesting place located near Salisbury in southern England. It consists of a number of huge stones arranged in a circle on the top of a hill. There's some upright stones with a massive stone placed on top. It's thought to be around 5,000 years old so it's amazing to think how our ancestors manged to put the stones there without modern equipment like cranes and so on.
No-one's really sure why Stonehenge was built – some people think it might have been a temple or some sort of hospital. When we visited, our guide explained that on one day of the year, the longest day, the sun rises directly over a certain stone and its rays reach the middle of the circle. The guide said that there's a big party at Stonehenge on the longest day with people gathering to watch the sunrise.
Many people think that historical places are boring but I really enjoy visiting these sorts of places. It's much more interesting than going to a shopping mall as you can really feel the history, I mean the atmosphere. Stonehenge is such a mysterious place – as I said, we don't really know why it was built but just being there makes your spine tingle.
After our visit, we worked on a group project about Stonehenge. I remember that we also learnt that it's popular for the shortest day in December as the sun rises over another stone. Some people now think that it was maybe some sort of calendar or observatory. Whatever it was meant for, I think it's a magical place to visit and I'll never forget the trip we made to Stonehenge.

I've actually thought of a win - win - win scenario, kinda like a hat trick. I have access to some damn sweet clipart. I'm hankering to create some beasties for Tunnels & Trolls for my upcoming campaign. Y'all get some new T&T critters. The artists get some visibility and credit for their artwork.
I win.
My future players will win.
Hopefully this blog's readers will find some useful and win.
The artists win.
Kinda hard for me to bugger this up, unless my stuff stinks worse then a porta-potty at the county fair in the middle of August. Even then it may be fun just to watch the train wreck ;)
I suspect the game I will eventually be running will be fairly grounded in 5.5e T&T (although heavily house ruled), but I like the monster write ups and special spite attacks from 7.5e, so I suspect I'll be using that as a template.

Have just managed to resolve net issues and some site problems, which were preventing me from blogging. As a result I have a huge backlog of posts in various degrees of preparation to clear over the next few weeks. Fear not, they will all eventually see the light of day, but with my schedule getting hairier every month I can't promise any dates. Anyway, here a potted update on what's been happening.
First the big news: I have scratched the surface of comics creation and with great trepidation submitted two self-drawn stories, one called 'Killer' to Comix India, and another called 'The Bookshop on the Hill' to Drighanchoo. Both are very rough work and I can see I still have a long way to go, but they're a start. The Killer story is complete and will be out in the forthcoming issue of Comix India (vol. 2, theme: Girl Power). It's 26 pages long, and it's about a girl who marries a rock star and is then accused of killing him. I originally intended to leave the pencils untouched and just photoshop to clean the white space, but i think I overdid the curves, making the pages too dark. 'The Bookshop on the Hill' looks more 'natural' as I didn't do much with it after scanning (partly due to lack of time and the impending deadline). I'm happier with it but there's still a lot to do. I think it's going to take me at least five or six whole stories worth of hard practice before I get a decent style going, and that means a lot of work and time has to be invested. But it is great fun, and if I could I would draw all day.
Bharath Murthy very kindly accepted it for publication, though he said the central killing was 'strange'. He's right, of course: I don't think I was fully in control of the story telling, but hope. Here are the first seven pages in a low res format: to read the whole story online, or to order copies, go to http://www.comixindia.com/ as soon as Vol. 2 is out, which will hopefully be soon.

Kurita announces update on funds for APSU student housing
Senator Rosalind Kurita (D-Clarksville) announced today that the Tennessee Building Commission has approved the next phase of a $30 million student housing project for Austin Peay State University.
The commission approved the selection of a construction manager/general contractor for the project, a 400-bed housing structure with double occupancy suite-type units.
"I am pleased the building commission is moving forward with this project so we can improve the quality of life for APSU students. Safe and comfortable student housing is crucial to the college experience and this project will allow us to serve our student population in a manner they deserve." — Sen Rosalind Kurita
Initial funds for the project were approved in December 2007. Each unit will have a double occupancy room, each room will contain an individual bathroom and the two rooms will share a common living room.

Wednesday morning, President Donald Trump endorsed Rep. Pete Session, the incumbent in Texas' 32nd Congressional District. On its face, the Trump's seal of approval was nothing out of the ordinary, just another rote tweet from a president who's an endless source of them. What was attention grabbing was that this was the second time he's tweeted about Sessions in less than a month.
Congressman Pete Sessions of Texas is doing a great job. He is a fighter who will be tough on Crime and the Border, fight hard for our Second Amendment and loves our Military and our Vets. He has my full and complete Endorsement!— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) September 15, 2018
Congressman @PeteSessions of Texas is a true fighter and patriot. Highly respected in D.C. by all, he always gets what his district, and our country, wants and needs. Strong on Crime, Border, Military, Vets and 2nd Amendment. Pete has my Full and Total Endorsement. A great guy!— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) October 3, 2018
It's not just the president who's jumping in to help Sessions in the face of a serious challenge from former NFL player and President Barack Obama appointee Colin Allred. Monday, Vice President Mike Pence is parachuting into Texas to campaign for Sessions and Senator Ted Cruz, who's locked in a tough re-election battle of his own with U.S. Rep. Beto O'Rourke. The Congressional Leadership Fund, a right-wing super PAC, is also running ads against Allred, painting him as, stop us if you've heard this one before, "too liberal for Texas."
The cavalry is coming to Sessions' aid following the release of a series of polls, including one by Siena College and The New York Times, that show the race as a toss-up, but Rice University political science Professor Mark Jones says the timing of the help for Sessions is probably more about the calendar than fear of Allred. Jones says that if the election were a football game, he'd view Sessions as about a 7-point favorite, thanks to the 32nd District's long history of voting strongly Republican for Sessions and in judicial races.

"Now is about the time when people start paying attention to the actual election," Jones says. "Outside of the punditry and the politically active, real people are now starting to slowly think about the midterm election. If you want to get the most bang for your buck, the time between now and October is the time to reach those voters."
Despite the national attention being paid to the contest between Sessions and Allred, Allred is still largely unknown within District 32, which covers a swath of North Dallas and DFW's northern suburbs, according to Jones. Someone who isn't all that tuned in might catch a snippet of Pence's visit thanks to TV coverage and develop an opinion about the challenger.
"One of the advantages of Pence coming and the focus on CD32 is — according to that New York Times poll — half the voters in CD32 don't know anything about Colin Allred," Jones says. "The more that Pence can come and say, 'Pete Sessions is a good conservative Republican and Colin Allred is radical, liberal Nancy Pelosi Democrat,' that does inform the electorate. To the extent that you're going to drive those people with low information, you might give them a more negative opinion."
So far, Sessions and Allred have had a single public debate, held on the afternoon of Sept. 19 at the Dallas Rotary Club. This week, Allred sent Sessions a letter requesting a televised debate, but the two candidates have yet to agree on a date or terms for a potential debate.

There is a lot of hype around cloud computing. And there are many myths about cloud security. But is cloud computing really a risk? Interestingly, many of the potential security issues in cloud computing are overhyped - and others are vastly ignored.
Cloud computing is not only hype. It is a fundamental paradigm shift in the way we are doing IT. It is the shift from manufacturing to industrialization in IT; it is the shift from doing everything internally toward an IT that consumes services from the most appropriate service provider and is able to switch between (internal and external) service providers flexibly. It is, on the other hand, not only about external or highly scalable services. The core of cloud computing is to think in services, to optimize service procurement, and to optimize service production and delivery. The competition between internal and external service providers is part of this as well as it is the shift from a tactical use of some external services toward a strategic approach for service orchestration and service procurement.
Given that, cloud computing done right provides a lot of opportunities for achieving a higher level of security. A strategic approach for service procurement must include a standardized service description and thus clearly defined requirements for these services - not only from a functional perspective but for the "governance" part of it as well. Thus, aspects such as security requirements, encryption of transport and data, and location of data have to be covered in such requirements and mapped into SLAs (Service Level Agreements). Doing that right will automatically lead to a higher level of security compared to the tactical deployment of SaaS today - and it will reduce the number of cloud service providers you can choose from.
The biggest advantage in cloud computing for IT security besides the strategic sourcing of services is that cloud service providers are potentially better at IT operations than an organization can be. That is especially true for SMBs. Large providers with large data centers promise availability and data security - and many of them fulfill that promise. In addition, cloud services might as well help in improving IT service delivery. External backups, sort of "redundant data centers" built on IaaS (Infrastructure as a Service) offerings, or just the ability to offload peaks in resource consumption to the (external) cloud are some examples.
For sure there are aspects such as the increasing number of providers within the "IT service supply chain" that lead to increasing risks in the area of availability. There is the risk of sensitive data being managed somewhere out there. However, using the strategic approach on service management mentioned earlier (including the "governance" part) will reduce and mitigate many of these risks.

Every student and staff member at RCHS participated in a school-wide initiative to promote health and physical activity. The first annual Rock Moves event included a run and 18 stations students could choose from. The event was a joint effort, planned by assistant Principal, Mrs. Becky Smith and PE/Health instructor, Mrs. Vanessa Howard. It was facilitated by the RCHS PE and Health Dept. (McQueary, Rupard, and Howard) and every staff member at the high school, with the help of community members, Ms. Angie Thomas (Zumba) and Rockcastle Regional employee, Mrs. Morgan Bray (Kettlebells). We are grateful for the support of our local hospital and community members as well as the phenomenal staff and administration at RCHS! Activities for The Rock Moves included Capture the Flag, Ultimate Frisbee, Sideline Soccer, Uphill Kickball, the Raider Obstacle Course, Zumba, a Kettlebell class, Yoga, Karate, Walking, and many more. Research shows that healthy, active kids are better learners and that is the culture we want to support at RCHS. The proceeds of the event will go towards certifying Rocket freshmen in CPR and purchasing materials to help keep students active.
As part of The Rock Moves event, over 65 RCHS students and staff participated in a 2-mile run during first period on September 29th. We want to thank Rockcastle Regional Hospital for their generous donation that purchased t-shirts and trophies, and for Kayla Rowe and the other hospital workers who made the race possible. Also, a big thank you to the JROTC for helping facilitate the race and the RCHS administration for allowing us to do such an awesome event!

The path towards becoming very good at attribution may take time, but evidence points to the fact that marketers begin to see the benefits of attribution fairly quickly. In a recent study done by Forrester, marketers have cited improvements in digital media efficiencies from 15% to more than 30% in the first year, mostly due to finding and eliminating waste in media plans.
Today's environment has become complex and challenging, and today we see a mindboggling number of routes a consumer can take towards making a purchase. Companies are interacting with customers in stores, on websites, via social media and search engines, TV, print, billboards, mobile, and email; the number of channels, devices, and touches can be intimidating – 40 to 70 for some Yes Marketing clients, and very rarely are any working in silos.
The amount and complexity of transactional information have increased dramatically over the past decade. Today's technology allows for the storage and complex analysis of billions of pieces of customer activity. We have quicker, more accurate and deeper insights today than we had in the past. In addition, free attribution tools, such as Google Analytics' Model Comparison tool, are bringing the ability to explore digital attribution to all businesses.
While improvements in technology have enabled increasing data and analysis, many marketers are still relying on simple forms of attribution, such as "last touch" (eConsultancy, Google). Such attribution could lead to an erroneous conclusion of what actually drove the revenue, rather than what acted as the facilitator to it. Marketing organizations require improved methodologies to more accurately understand which programs are revenue drivers and those that are not. They face the challenge of developing an approach that leverages the best available information, yet can be applied from a practical perspective.

Frightfully Delicious With Say Cheese Halloween!
Hi! Odessa here with a cute SN@P! layout using Say Cheese Halloween. I paired my layout with the Yellow Designer binder because I love the polka dot pattern on the inside and the yellow goes great with the spooky colours in Say Cheese Halloween.
The colours and icons Say Cheese Halloween are so fun and playful, so I had so much fun putting this layout together! I'm really into adding interactive elements to my pages lately so there is a photo flip as well as a little protector strip that's kind of like a bookmark. Around it are lots of cute photos and journal cards from Say Cheese Halloween.
On this page I used a couple of the journal cards from Say Cheese Halloween and a photo from the adventure I was documenting with my kids. I embellished simply with word stickers, stickers, embellishments and alpha stickers to tell my story in a bold graphic way that matches the collection.
In the middle of the layout is one of my current fav elements. I use the Page protector with a long 2x8 strip with two 4x4 pockets. I cut off the 4x4 pockets to make a long strip that's kind of like a bookmark in the middle of the page and fill it with fun! I put a photo I really liked in it on the black and white stripe of the Frankly Frightful cardstock and added some stickers to finish it off along with a tab sticker on the top.
On the other side of the 2x8 sticker I layered some of the adorable kids from the Say Cheese Happy Halloween Kids Bits & Pieces that reminded me of my boys. Adorable!
I really really like the Photo Flips. They might be one of my favourite Simple Stories accessories and I use them a ton! They're great for adding that one extra photo to a layout that you couldn't fit in the pockets or adding more dimension to a story. Under our doughnut photo I squeezed in some journalling and a photo of my son in full donut bliss.
I filled the little 2x2 pockets on the page with some cute embellishments and journal cards. Say Cheese Halloween is such a fun collection! I didn't have any great recent Halloween photos to use so I used the collection with some everyday photos and love how they worked together. Everyday can be Halloween!

Excellency in quality system
Bucharest, August 11, 2005 - The SIVECO Romania's quality system has been re-certified this year by the prestigious auditing company AFAQ AFNOR, one of the first five auditing companies in the world.
"We are very happy with the excellent results following the recent audit, as we succeeded to achieve the maximum level for 8 out of 11 evaluation chapters. Each audit (re-certification or supervision) showed the continuous improvement of the quality management system for SIVECO Romania", said Irina Socol, general manager SIVECO Romania.
The main objectives that set the company's quality policy are: care for the client, for quality and for its employees. The objectives are established for each level of the organization, each project, each employee, and each department has its own objectives, which derive from the general ones. From the department level, the objectives are split over the projects and employees. The objectives are verified through a reporting system that applies for each employee.
The undergoing processes are settled by the ISO9001:2000 norms, which confirm a mature quality system, and are grouped in three categories, each represented by one or more procedures.
- Processes on the added value chain, which interface the market (marketing and sales) and the final client (engineering processes for the development process, standard product implementation and technical support sub-processes);
- Management processes, which define the basic activities regarding the process' life cycle: resources management, project management, contract/offers management, quality management;
- Support processes, for the added value chain processes, such as the procurement processes.
The quality management system certification of the products and services provided by SIVECO Romania is a guaranty for the company's clients regarding the control over the processes, which determine high-quality products and services.
For the company, a functional quality system means a better internal process organization, with positive results over the projects.For the employees, working in an organized environment, with precise responsibilities and unitary tools and methodologies ensures a successful outcome for their activities.

Things and places abandoned by humans have a special charm. Most people, at least once in a lifetime, would like to enter a house where no one has lived for a long time or take a walk in an abandoned amusement park. It's creepy, of course, like a horror movie, but it's very interesting! That's why today we offer you to visit graveyards of forgotten objects.

Brenta River (Riviera del Brenta)
Venice and islands: Murano, Burano, Torcello, Lido
Bassano del Grappa and Marostica
TREVISO, in origin a Roman city, then a commune and finally a Venetian possession, mainly medieval in aspect, with picturesque canals and noble buildings. it is the home of the headquarters of designer clothing company Benetton, and of the major appliance maker DeLonghi. As soon as we arrive in Treviso, we go straight to San Nicolo a superb Romanesque and Gothic church of refined proportions, the largest in the city, with frescoes by Tomaso da Modena and numerous pictures and sculptures. From here, by way of Via Battisti and Via S. Liberate, passing the Palladian church of S. Agnese, we reach the Art Gallery, interesting for frescoes by Tomaso da Modena, paintings by Giovanni Bellini, Cima da Conegliano, etc., and works of the 17° and 18° centuries. Turning down Via Canova (notice the Casa da Noal with its painted facade), we come to the Cathedral, distinguished by its seven domes.Inside, a tender Annunciation by Titian and the ethereal Madonna dei Fiore by Girolamo da Treviso. Next to the Cathedral are the 13° century Bishop's Palace and the Baptistery. From here, we walk to the Canale dei Buranelli to see the old houses which line it and finally reach the Piazza dei Signori, the center of the city of Treviso, dominated by the Palazzo dei Trecento (1217) and the Palazzo dei Podesta. The visit ends at the graceful Loggia dei Cavalieri.

Cold Laser Therapy
Cold laser therapy is a non-invasive treatment option that uses low level light therapy to stimulate the damaged tissues, thereby enhancing the progress of healing and providing relief from pain and inflammation. This treatment has excellent potential to ease chronic pain and inflammation due to its capability to penetrate the skin and treat soft tissue injuries.
When the targeted body part is exposed to the cold laser, the cells are exposed to photon energy, which increases metabolism of the cells and promotes collagen growth. The blood circulation improves and thus the wounds heal faster.
Cold Laser Therapy for Pain Management
- Muscle or joint pain (back, elbows, shoulders, knees)
- Reduce or prevent scar tissue
- Shortened healing time for injuries
- Increase vascular activity
- Reduce Swelling and inflammation.
You will be amazed what this treatment can do to help with your pain. Live your life again, with fewer days in pain!

The obvious tension in the story is between the psychologist, Dr. Raymond Oss, and his patient, Mr. Gary Sharpe. Right from the beginning, Sharpe has an antagonistic approach to his visit and the amount of money the sessions are costing him. Nevertheless, he continues to see the doctor for over year. The primary and underlying tension is the more personal tension between Sharpe and Oss. Oss is a gambler himself, perhaps a sometime addict, and Sharpe is the winner of the 2003 World Series of Poker. Their meetings resemble something for poker game, as Oss tries to find out information from Sharpe to help him deal with his issues with his father. This fact-finding mission cumulates in an actual poker match in the end of the story.
Tension is constructed by the poker game like interactions that Oss and Sharpe exhibit in their sessions. This tension builds into the climax that is resolved with Sharpe showing the overconfident Oss that it is actually he who is donkey in their relationship. The "donkey" of course meaning a "shit player," both in poker and in life. This plot point is used to illustrate what Sharpe says in the end, "The man who can't lose always does. Did you learn nothing from our work?" This question is used to show that while Sharpe was the one who sought Oss' help, he (by the nature of his personality) was also there to teach Oss a few things.
In this story, setting is developed using plot and character. Almond spends very little time describing rooms and places except with a few extreme the well-placed details such as smell. For example, the casino, Artichoke Joe's, is portrayed as a place with "confusion of colognes and nicotine." The simple image is enough to capture the mood. Almond also takes time to slowly develop his characters, both physically and psychologically. He does not introduce them entirely right in the beginning but instead holds on to certain details until the last possible time. For example, the readers don't learn that Oss wears hats until the middle of the story when Sharpe mocks him about hiding his baldness. Likewise, the readers also don't learn that Sharpe found his dead father's body hanging with shit on his pants until the very end. Since Sharpe stops attending meetings after mistakingly revealing this information to Oss, his treatment of Oss at the poker table appears to be an act of vengeance. Thus, the characters seem to create the plot and the setting, allowing the story to masterfully succeed at what it's trying to achieve.

We have a successful and documented track record of handicapping NCAA football games spanning well over a decade. Recent seasons?
As you can tell from the description of the MEGALOCKS SEASON PASS, we offer a LOT more than just picks. Let us be your guide to the NCAA Football season and do ALL the hard work. We hope to have you along for the ride!
Your peace of mind is paramount. As always, please contact us if you have any questions!
There are several reasons why the MEGALOCKS weekly college football discussion threads in past seasons regularly received 20,000-100,000+ views.
Dozens of games are analyzed and written-up every week. No stone is left unturned. There is no substitute for using a comprehensive approach to handicapping and predicting the outcome of college football games.
MEGALOCKS uses all kinds of information including statistics, match-ups, depth charts, motivational angles, injuries, weather, line moves and anything else deemed relevant to the outcome of each game.
Significant edges are realized thanks to in-depth research before the season starts, and perhaps most importantly, through watching as many games as possible. MEGALOCKS has you covered throughout the season. We know you lead a busy life.
Let MEGALOCKS do all the hard work for you!
Long-time readers of the legendary MEGALOCKS game analyses know that there is an underlying passion, respect and appreciation for the sport. MEGA has seen over 60 FBS TEAMS PLAY LIVE and thoroughly enjoys going to watch any match-up, whether it be a loaded Florida Gators team in the National Championship, or two lesser-known teams fighting to get to a winning record. One thing remains consistent with college football. Everywhere you go, fans are incredibly knowledgeable about their team, and truly love being part of a community.
A staple of the MEGALOCKS NCAA football game write-ups and analysis is the entertainment value and humor that are included as part of the package. MEGALOCKS is well known for making the seemingly dry details of statistics and match-up strengths and weaknesses come to life with witty banter, random attempts at comic relief and the gross overuse of CAPITAL LETTERS. Let there be no doubt. There will also be liberal inclusion of some of the RIDICULOUS GAMBLING TERMINOLOGY that we have all grown accustomed to hearing. LOCK, STEAM, INSIDERS, VEGAS TRAPS, 999-STAR SUPER LOCK PARLAY SPECIALS and the like.
A little-known MEGALOCKS factoid – The handle "MEGALOCKS" was conceived many years ago as a satirical play on the word "LOCK" as it is used in the sports prediction arena. We do not need to tell you that there is no such thing as a "lock" or certainty when it comes to the outcome of a sporting event. To this day, many people are still searching for the certainty of the mythical "lock", and some companies still advertise their services citing "locks" in the marketing material.
So sit back and enjoy ! Whether it be at home, on the road, at work (we would never condone or suggest that option), on vacation or wherever and whenever you want. MEGALOCKS is here to make the season more FUN and ENJOYABLE. Now THAT my friends, is actually a LOCK.
MEGALOCKS takes great pride in being objective. Some weeks we may believe your team will perform well. Other weeks, the opposite may be true. Another thing that long-time MEGALOCKS readers can attest to is that we play no favorites and are respectful of all teams and players, while at the same time, enjoy having a bit of good-natured fun.
The MEGALOCKS name has been built over more than a decade of honesty, transparency and respectful dealing with others. This will continue. This is who we are.
MEGALOCKS has provided comprehensive analysis and predictions for NCAA football games for well over a decade. We cannot thank our readers enough for the support and encouragement that they have shown over the years!
MEGA's win percentage against the spread with NCAA FOOTBALL SELECTIONS is typically between 55% and 62% vs widely available lines. The epic 2015 regular season run (72%; 12/12 winning weeks) will be impossible for us to replicate. ATS records of 60%, 55% and 60% in 2018, 2017 and 2016 respectively had their ups and downs but were ultimately profitable as well. Last season we were 26-11 (70.3%) in team total investments.
The added bonus? MEGALOCKS subscribers DOMINATED the futures and props market AGAIN last season with predictions such as the National Championship winner (Clemson), UAB to win C-USA (20-1) and a winning mark with season win total wagers.
What should MEGALOCKS readers expect this year ? Well there are no guarantees. That is for sure. What we do know is that we have a track record of success dating back a long time and have been handicapping college football for over twenty years. All things considered, we feel it is reasonable to set expectations against the spread somewhere between 55% and 60% vs widely available lines. The win % will fall in that range 7-8 years out of 10 based on past experience.
As always, we are confident and excited for the new season to begin, but it must be noted that predicting the outcome of college football games against the point spread is very difficult and every year presents it's own challenges. That is why those familiar with our philosophy and overall approach know that the MOST important thing is to play safe and protect your capital.
There is a lot of hard work ahead and we hope 2019 will be a special year!
MEGALOCKS turns the college football season into a fun-filled extravaganza where football, laughs and barrels of money flow freely.

MEGA is a lover, not a fighter.

A Love Letter to Tillerson and Haley
I have a lot of respect for the job Secretary of State Rex Tillerson is doing under very bad circumstances and of course, I'm in love (isn't everybody?) with UN Ambassador Nikki Haley, who has exceeded even my impossibly high expectations. She has expertly handled a wide variety of situations, in short order — even with hostile countries — with such a perfect combination of logic, persuasion, and some arm-twisting — as to look like she's been on the international stage all her life. I'm convinced either her or Heidi Heitkamp, the wonderful Senator from North Dakota, will be our first woman President.
But this piece is not about how great they are doing, but about something serious they need to address, and unfortunately, even as full as their plates are, they need to ALSO get going on this.
In the summer of 2013, the U.S. State Department issued a report, which supposedly was a summary of Iranian influence in Latin America. I say allegedly because I have excerpted the report below, and as you can see for yourself, it's amateurish, and makes broad sweeping assertions without support, that are consequently wrong. Although this report outraged me at the time, there was nothing that could be done, the Iranian Nuclear Deal whitewash was on, and since the State Department itself — was coordinating this whitewash program — getting them to withdrawal their propaganda portion of this, was a pipe-dream, and I knew it.
That document sits out there, un-repudiated by our government however, and that is a mistake. Let's examine just a few reasons why:
From the study summary – "In 2013, governments in Latin America made modest improvements to their counterterrorism capabilities and their border security."
This starts out innocuous enough, sort of a – "No Problem Here," beginning, but lede of this report does not even mention Iran.
State Department – "Corruption, weak government institutions, insufficient interagency cooperation, weak or non-existent legislation, and a lack of resources remained the primary causes for the lack of significant progress in some of the countries."
The very things Iran is promoting in Latin America, and exploiting, the report admits exist — but makes no to CONNECTION to Iran.
This is like leftist street literature not a State Department report, people are poor, that's the problem, not the behavior and interference from a foreign regime — that given a chance — will wipe out the legal systems in these countries, (Sharia Law), gut their democratic institutions and/or CLOSE them, (Venezuela, Iran, Russia, Yemen, Syria, Iraq, etc.), kill all your Jews, Homosexuals, Christians and non-believers of all stripes, and then LEAVE the country stone-age poor forever. This process, being violently carried out by Iran in multiple countries, according to the State Department, in the next sentence — is less of a threat — then the drug cartels, which they call transnational criminal organizations:
State — "Transnational criminal organizations continued to pose a more significant threat to the region than transnational terrorism, and most countries made efforts to investigate possible connections with terrorist organizations."
This is a bold lie, the Obama narrative was slicker than oil, he never said, you are wrong, he always provided some false stalking horse, like "The big problem isn't Iran buying Presidential influence in Argentina to cover the bombing of a Jewish day care center BY the Iranians, or the purchase of advanced Russian SAM systems (sanctions violation) through Venezuela, or the propping up of that illegitimate regime, or the actual terrorists, used throughout Latin America, comprised of Cuban, Venezuelan and Iranian forces? What does State say to all this? The following line:
State – "Iran's influence in the Western Hemisphere remained a concern."
That's it; I swear that was all there was – "…remained a concern."
Like the Mullahs, and the Republican Guards, and their worldwide terrorism program were a storm off the coast of Argentina that would blow over. The rest of the paragraph was devoted to an outright lie the Obama administration was brilliant at telling:
"Look, we did this; it worked; now we're going to go a step further."
Of course, the original program they were declaring a success, was already such a compete cluster *uck-up, only the Obama people would have had the brass balls to call it a success.
AND remarkably they got away with exactly this kind of shit for 8 straight years. It would take a book to detail the enormity of the lie perpetrated by this report, but I think most people would agree, the next sentence is ludicrous on it's face.
State – "However, due to strong sanctions imposed on the country by both the United States and the EU, Iran has been unable to expand its economic and political ties in Latin America."
This is contradicted by hundreds of press reports SINCE this report was issued but it was preceded by them as well, this didn't just turn out to be untrue, it was untrue when this report was generated by what appears to be either a college student and/or a State Department intern at that time. Just this week of course, Iran loaned the dictator of Venezuela, Maduro The Bull, enough money to stay in power down there, and suppress his own people, while further destabilizing the continent, after getting a multi-billion dollar line of credit from China. Next State will be issuing a report saying the Chinese influence in Latin America is also non-existent and also not a threat.
Here's MORE of what State said fours year ago in that disastrous report the State Department needs to officially repudiate:
State – "The United States continued to work with partner nations to build capacity to detect and address any potential terrorist threat. There were no known operational cells of either al-Qa'ida or Hizballah in the hemisphere, although ideological sympathizers in South America and the Caribbean continued to provide financial and ideological support to those and other terrorist groups in the Middle East and South Asia."
These were all State Department lies — Iran doesn't export oil, they export terror, terrorists, terrorist ideologies, and provide funding and training and logistical support for terrorist activities. It's just what they do — and they are doing it, have been doing it, and will continue to do it in Latin America if we don't respond.
Rex Tillerson and Nikki Haley, I say this with Love, because you both are pitching a nearly perfect game by my standards (I know there's a little personal friction between you two, I would hope you both would see that as a plus for the American people) but this old report is a batter left on base that needs to come home, this report is a disgrace and if we want to change the way the world sees Iran — we need to stop lying to the world in our own State Department reports, about who they are, what they are doing, and where they are doing it.

I'm pretty sure I'm the only one who remembers this so I was very excited to find this on youtube. Don't ask why I searched for it… because I really don't know.
I remember eating this in preschool every day. It's one of about 8 or 9 memories I have from preschool. I remember LOVING it!! For years I asked people if they remembered this and NO ONE ever did. I was very happy to discover that this really did exist and it wasn't one of those fake memories your brain creates over time.
While I'm feeling nostalgic, I decided to post a few other videos from my fond memories of childhood. Anyone remember these? (by the way, yes I'm bored… which is why I have the time to look all this crap up!)

The Farm is a sound library that I compiled about a year ago just for fun and I kept adding sounds recorded at the same location in the Canadian countryside at 4 different farms. During the recording session, I've been lucky enough to have met some fantastic people ready to share their passion for farming and pointing me out to what they felt was an essential part of their everyday soundscape.
I had the chance to stumble on two late 50s John Deere tractors that where still functional and that marked the end of an era. It is a comprehensive farm sound library that is not just about tractors or animals.
You will find, in the bonus section, 6 different footsteps surfaces each with a walk and run variation and some more. There are five main categories in this library: Ambiances, Animals, Footsteps, Misc (Various SFX) and Vehicles ready for creating a convincing farm soundscape for your project.
There are no reviews yet!

The farmers were put to the test
By the Feds, who thought they knew best
But the solution was risky
For those who made whiskey
When they expanded off to the west.
Synopsis: I'm a Family Practitioner from Sioux City, Iowa. In 2010 I danced back from the brink of burnout, and honoring a 1 year non-compete clause, travelled and worked in out-of-the-way places in Alaska, Nebraska, Iowa, and New Zealand. After three years working with a Community Health Center, I am back having adventures in temporary positions until they have an Electronic Medical Record (EMR) system I can get along with. I spent the winter in Nome, Alaska, followed by assignments in rural Iowa. This summer included a funeral, a bicycle tour in Michigan, cherry picking in Iowa, a medical conference in Denver, and working Urgent Care in suburban Pennsylvania. Any patient information has been included with permission.
This summer I worked in Pennsylvania in the area of the Whiskey Rebellion. I took the time to read the Wikipedia article.
My high school American History course treated the Whiskey Rebellion as a joke, taking about 3 paragraphs, alleging that the disturbance ended with not a shot fired.
The Articles of Confederation gave the country a weak central government, and the new nation foundered with poor law enforcement and inadequate revenues. Native Americans increased violence on the borders, perceiving, understandably, that the invading Europeans (and unwitting Africans) lacked effective military. Thus the country dispensed with the Articles of Confederation and adopted the Constitution. And Congress quickly passed a tax on whiskey.
The tax imposed a disproportionate burden on small producers, located at the time mostly in the rural and western areas. The big distillers supported it.
In Western Pennsylvania the small distillers held rallies and staged marches, and discussed long and hard whether to use violence. They tarred and feathered some tax collectors, and besieged others with gunfire and loss of human life, mostly on the part of the rebels. Eventually, George Washington himself led a force of 5,000 Federal troops to Pittsburgh, and the insurrection melted. Those soldiers never fired a shot.
At the end the Federal Government had enforced laws not only for taxing whiskey but also for conscripting troops.
The Whiskey Rebels either quit distilling, moved, or paid taxes.
(As a sidelight, the failure of the Whiskey Rebellion jump started westward expansion, when the small distillers moved outside the US, illegally, into Indian Territory, alcohol softening up the resistance of the Natives.)
But the distillers in Kentucky didn't protest or march. They just kept on distilling. I suspect that threats of violence or bribes resulted in the Feds having literally no tax collectors for the state. And the moonshiners still conduct their business, quietly and profitably.
The Affordable Care Act (Obamacare) effectively hijacked the US medical system, and things have gotten very bad for doctors. Any doctor who participates with insurance or Medicare/Medicaid spends an inordinate amount of time on clerical duties with no improvement in patient care. We have four choices: comply, move, quit, or stop taking insurance. I hear repeated calls from the doctors, up in arms, that we need effective leadership. And I hear lots of whining from doctors literally counting the days to retirement.
I look at Gandhi's civil disobedience and at the Whiskey Rebellion and at the ACA and I think that the docs have put themselves down the wrong road. We need to stop clicking boxes and take care of patients. If enforcement becomes impossible, we could win.

Brief description of Races & Subraces (Ideal to Show to your Players)
You've just got your class and subclass decided after taking a look at my previous posts BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF CLASSES AND SUBCLASSES, now it's about time you choose a race for your game!
Most of these classes have these descriptions only when found in the Forgotten Realms Setting (Or whichever setting I specify). Take into account that their attitudes, places to be found, etc. may vary if played in a homebrew or different setting than the one listed here. However, the races tend to act or think in a similar manner, such as elves and their love connection to nature, or dwarves and their love to build stuff. I hope this can give you a general idea of which race you want to play.
Play a race because you like it, and alter it as much as you like and your DM allows it. Don't be scared to try something different. Do you want to play a barbarian elf? That seems weird, but you can surely come up with a good enough reason for your character to have decided that path.
Without further ado, here are the official D&D 5e races:
- PHB: Player's Handbook
- SCAG: Sword Coast's Adventurers Guide
- MTF: Mordenkainen's Tome of Foes
Races and Subraces
Dragonborn (PHB)
Str +2
Cha +1
Descendants of dragons, these draconic humanoids live in clans who they value more than their life itself. Depending on their color, they get a breath attack of a specific type, as well as resistance to that same type of damage in combat. They tend to be as strong as they are charismatic, just like their fellow ancestors. Even though they are covered in scales, they lack the tail and wings that make dragons so characteristic.
A Guide to Roleplaying Dragonborn >
Dwarf (PHB)
Con +2
Stout, short and hardworking. Those might be the best words to describe a dwarf. Having their race forged by the god Moradin, they were taught of the benefits of hard labor, perfection in their works, and the importance of their clans. Dwarves live their long lives with a spirit of good and justice, that may only be corrupted by greed. Their sturdiness allows them to be more resistant than other classes in combat as well as resist poison. They tend to vary depending of the place they are from:
Hill Dwarf (PHB)
Wiser than their mountain siblings, they also tend to be even more sturdy than them, meaning they are able to stand more hits before falling in combat.
Mountain Dwarf (PHB)
The mountain and the labor in there has made them stronger. Their skin tends to be lighter toned as well as their stature a bit higher.
Duergar (MTF)
Greatly altered by the mind flayers, duergar distance themselves from typical dwarves in their traditions. They value hard work over any other thing. Due to their mental modifications, they are able to use certain psionic powers.
A Guide to Roleplaying Dwarves >
Elf (PHB)
Elves are magical and gracious beings, as well as very close to being eternal. They develop many different attitudes during their life. When young (young being up to 100 years old) they have an adventurous and curious way of thought, making them go for adventures. By the time they reach adulthood their personalities change and become much more peaceful, but don't discard the idea of going exploring until they become elders. They make for excellent artists and tend to be quite chaotic when it comes to laws. Last but not least, they don't sleep but enter trances for 4 hours a day in which they remain semiconscious. If you are playing an elf, choose between the following subraces:
Eladrin (MTF)
Eladrin are beings from the Feywild that look closer to how Corellon wanted the elves to look like. They can alter their looks in the same way seasons do. Depending on which season they choose, their abilities will be altered.
High Elf (PHB)
High elves are more studious and value art in a greater way than the other subraces. In addition, they master both longswords and shortswords, as well as shortbows and longbows.
Sea Elf (MTF)
Sea elves come from the sea and have big communities in there. They are able to breath both air and water, and can communicate with sea creatures in a similar way Aquaman does.
Shadar-Kai (MTF)
Shadar-kai are elves from the Shadowfell. They normally lack emotions and try to embrace strong emotions to stay alive, such as pain. Moreover, they can teleport up to 30ft becoming resistance to any damage until the end of the next turn.
Wood Elf (PHB)
Their intuition and keen senses are found to be the best among all elves, as well as their speed. Their training with weapons is similar to their high elves siblings, making them proficient in the use of longswords, shortswords, shortbows and longbows.
Dark Elf (Drow) (PHB)
Drows were banished from the surface world for betraying Corellon, the elven god. That developed a hate from them towards the other elves. However, a very low number are indifferent about the quarrel and decide to go back to the surface in search for adventure. They are normally very charismatic and can master drow magic.
A Guide to Roleplaying Elves >
Gnome (PHB)
Gnomes are weird super positive beings. Their spirits shine even in the darkest nights. Great inventors, pranksters, and even better intellectuals. Living away from other communities they tend to live pretty normal lives in their about 500 years. However, just like halflings, curiosity is something that every one of them carries, as well as their impulsive behavior, creating excellent and many adventurers out of them.
Forest Gnome (PHB)
They stealthily move through the forest, creating illusions to trick whoever gets close. Their affinity with animals let them communicate simple ideas to these beasts.
Rock Gnome (PHB)
Rock gnomes are known as the best tinkerers. These hardy beings can create little gadgets or things with a specific purpose, to be used for commodity or to maybe get them out of trouble.
Deep Gnome (MTF)
Gnomes of this kind aren't frequently seen in the surface world, and even if they were there, their ability to easily camouflage with rocks would make them invisible at sight.
A Guide to Roleplaying Gnomes >
Half-Elf (PHB)
Two abilities+1
These beings combine the best parts of elves and humans, or so they say. They don't really belong in either of both worlds, having to decide the community they find themselves more identified with. That's the reason why they work excellently as ambassadors or wander off feeling excluded from all places, sometimes in the search for weird adventurers with whom they can find a sense of belonging.
A Guide to Roleplaying Half-Elves >
Halfling (PHB)
Halflings are isolated, cheerful people who love the commodity of their homes and communities. That's the main reason most of them don't abandon their birthplaces (shires). However, a strong sense of curiosity inhabits in most of them, leading these little folk to become adventurers or travel to other places. They are extremely agile, but as a result of their short legs, not as fast as the other races
Lightfoot (PHB)
These halflings can easily hide behind anything that is higher than themselves and tend to be more charismatic than the rest from their race.
Stout (PHB)
Stout halflings have are similar in a certain way to dwarves. They are stout as their name says and have a resistance to poison.
A Guide to Roleplaying Halflings >
Half-Orc (PHB)
Half orcs have orc blood running through their veins. This makes them much stronger than normal people, as well as hardy. However, that also can make them act impulsively and savagely. They often live, or at least used to in orc tribes and may or may not feel the rage of Gruumsh within them (Gruumsh being the orc god). While many of them triumph as leaders in their tribe due to their high IQ in comparison with the others, others are exiled and go in search of jobs in communities or go adventuring. Their high endurance makes them almost impossible to fall in combat.
A Guide to Roleplaying Half-Orcs >
Human (PHB)
Well… I suppose you are a human, so you should know what we are good at. Absolutely nothing! Or more precisely, a bit in everything. Humans are quite more anxious and eager to adventure than the other races due to their short lives (in comparison with the others).
Variant Human (PHB)
2 different abilities+1
Ok, so you actually wanted to be a human that is good at a specific thing? Variant humans get to be a little better at something, while also getting a Feat at lvl1. They aren't any different from the other humans in appearance or attitude, this is just a stats thing.
A Guide to Roleplaying Humans >
Tiefling (PHB)
Tieflings take lots of forms and colors. They can have different kinds of horns and tails, as well as be from a great variety of colors. Nevertheless, they share some kind of curse. These are beings of infernal lineage due to a pact that someone in the long past made with Asmodeus (lord of Hell). They look mostly human, not taking into account the features described above. Even though they are mostly intellectual and highly charismatic beings, they tend to be received with mistrust by superstitious people.
The tiefling mentioned above are all connected to Asmodeus. In case you want your tiefling to be connected to another Lord of the 9 Hells, you can choose between these variants:
Baalzebul (MTF)
Tieflings connected to this lord can corrupt others both physically and psychically. Diseases and madness come from all who dare to confront them.
Dispater (MTF)
These people are searchers of secrets, as well as great spies and infiltrators. No truth can be hidden from them.
Fierna (MTF)
With their forceful personality, these tieflings act as great manipulators, filled with charm.
Glasya (MTF)
Great at illusions and thievery, as well as excellent at escapes and heists.
Levistus (MTF)
Tieflings whose connection is with the ruler from the Frozen Stygia are great both at combat and escape.
Mammon (MTF)
These beings are excellent both at gathering and safeguarding wealth, due to their greed.
Mephistopheles (MTF)
Great with the arcane arts and the power that comes from wielding them.
Zariel (MTF)
Stronger than the other tieflings, believers in strength to rule it all.
Feral (SCAG)
Feral tieflings are a variant from the typical one (the one connected with Asmodeus) but do receive different spells and abilities. These range from spells such as Charm Person or Burning Hands, to have the ability to be winged and fly.
