New Zombie Support
foofatron posted a topic in OCG LandZombies have recently received new toys and with the current card pool are poised to be a solid deck. Zombies' star cards imo are zombie world, mezuki, and now drochshuile. The rest are enablers - setting up the abuse of these cards. The warrior engine is better than any of the zombie cards at enabling combos, requires less cards, only needs monster effects, and does not need to search. Therefore, it will be used in this discussion. I have some videos below and there are a lot of potential combos beyond the ones I showcase. You could likely run the variant as an extra link deck, thunder dragon, Crusadia OTK, or a myriad of other things. For example, you could make herald with beast of the pharaoh, then revive arma (with zombie world), send dragondark, and search dragonhawk. The basic combo only requires 1/1.5 cards with Isolde (arma, grepher, vyon) and with two warriors the list of starters could be extended to dawn knight in this build. That will get you Beatrice which will fully enable Drochshuile and allow you to expand your board. In a lot of ways it is built like gouki except that the individual monsters have a lot more utility. The biggest choice when building this deck will be the extra deck space and deciding what combos you want to build for – and whatever the banlist may be. Even without summon sorceress you can field a boss monster beside Drochshuile and with future cards or combos discovered that could be increased – and that's with only 1 – 2 cards. Zombie world and mezuki have long allowed you to do some pretty crazy things and zombies have always been pretty adaptable - check this out from 2015/2016: The only big concern I have for the deck is going second vs. extra link as with tri-gate there isn't much the deck can do without siding bar a very lucky hand. Not a huge fan of hand traps unless they are turn stoppers vs. respective decks so I opt to side in a bunch of cybers. I'm going to leave the deck building pretty open as I have not tested the deck much going second. One thing I'm sure of is run phoenix as most decks seem to run few backrow cards that you could likely out first on most hands. Also, I run double of the zombie world stuff as it is important for the boss and combos, while also having anti-meta properties against a number of decks (and rivalry!). It is often a priority for the opponent to get rid of or disrupt during your turn. While you'll generally want to summon Drochshuile going second do to the banish effect I'm only running one as that is all you need. There'll be times where you draw bulb going second where you'd want to summon Drochshuile, but those would be a low amount of games. One card you may not be aware of is: This card allows you to get two extra uses out of mali and is a great extender for synchro/xyz plays. Most of these combos are tcg/ocg internet format as I live in tcg territory, but I did include one ocg combo and there are many more. I didn't record it but there is a zexal combo for ocg players. Here's some examples of the fields you could make – naturia monsters, calamity synchro, fun stuff. The deck is potent even going second and against hand traps. I recorded some duels and even though I don't play around hand traps well I'm still able to plow through. In practice I'm not sure if I would use Isolde's first effect, depends how popular ogre or if it would end your turn. The deck that I'm using is: https://imgur.com/a/vlg0ads __________ I didn't realize how soon the structure deck was being released. With that in mind here are some tcg combos for the deck. The weak point for the deck is when you attempt to send bulb on your opponent's turn, but once we get savage dragon the soulkius build should be able to be built to be robust to handtraps at any point.

Forces. This deck has quite a few cards in it that restrict the fuck out of Effect Monsters, but my main issue are set Spells and Traps on the opponent's side. Delteros helps immensely with the Torrential Tributes, "Hole" cards, and things of that nature...but Sakuretsu Armor and it's ilk kind of hurt. Yes, there are Dragons in here but they're only there because I don't have warriors to replace them with. If I can find them, I might toss in Tune Warrior so I can use some Synchros. Though, I don't have many Synchros at the moment so I might just hold off on that. If anyone has any suggestions, I'm all ears! Mostly, I'm looking for something to deal with Spells and Traps (I wish Heavy Storm was unbanned...it'd be a LOT of help). Delteros can help with them and I'm looking to get a second one but something I can use that would let me have better field control would be great too.

If you've ever done any sort of international travel then you've probably experienced the joys of the geo-blocking. It's the practice of restricting someones access to a website or resource based simply upon their physical location. So a typical scenario would be a British tourist, enjoying their summer holidays in Spain. They've got no plans that evening so log onto to the BBC iPlayer site to watch Match of the Day. That's the point when they'll get disappointed and see something similar to this message –
It's friendly enough but it's ruined thousands of evenings all over the world I can assure you. What happens is that when you go to the BBC iPlayer site, your web site is checked and recorded. It is then checked against a database to determine what location it's registered in. If that location is not the UK then you'll get this message or something very similar, if it is in the UK then everything will work fine. What's worse is that you actually have no direct control over the nationality of your IP address, well unless you own and operate an ISP!
There Must Be a Solution !
So that's it, no more BBC live streams, no BBC iPlayer archives, no BBC Local radio broadcasts!! Basically you're stuck with the very basic 'International version' of the BBC which is ok but has none of the media streaming capability. The whole vast store of BBC online resources, a complete entertainment centre is denied to you simply because of the nationality of your IP address.
Of course, there is a solution and a simple method to gain access to the BBC iPlayer from anywhere. It's something that I personally have been doing for over ten years now, mainly from the USA but equally from anywhere else I travel to.
Here's the one I use currently:
It's using a VPN service to hide your IP address and watch the BBC (plus all other UK TV) from anywhere. All you do is connect to the VPN server either manually or using some software, and then access the BBC website. The BBC will only see the IP address of the VPN server, so as long as it's in the UK then everything will work fine.
The VPN server sits between your computer and the BBC site, so you never actually connect directly. The BBC will assume you're in the UK because it only registers the VPNs IP address, the same will occur for any other UK TV site like the ITV for example.
So Which's the Best VPN for BBC iplayer ?
So the solution is fairly simple, but be warned typing in VPNs and BBC into Google will result in a confusing choice. You will also see lots of stories and reports about the BBC blocking proxies and VPNs. Both of these are linked in a way, the sheer number of VPN services is because it's not actually that difficult to set up a simple VPN or proxy server. However configuring it properly and ensuring it's fast and secure is much more difficult, which is where most of these services fail. The result is that many of these services, have fancy websites and little skill or expertise in setting up and running a VPN server properly. They therefore get blocked, banned or simply fall over frequently often overloaded by a massive number of users. So you will find stories of the BBC iPlayer blocking VPN programs but they're not all true.
The pot luck method of choosing a VPN is fraught with risks, alas you also have to be careful when choosing more prominent or established services too. Here's a quick checklist of the sort of things you should choose particularly if you want a decent service. There is no doubt that the BBC iPlayer detecting VPN services much more successfully over the last few years. Here's some things you should look for in picking the best VPN service for BBC iPlayer –
- UK Servers – seems an obvious point but it's a crucial one. You need to connect through a UK based server in order for the BBC to work so it's vital that the company has enough UK servers to support it's users.
- Connection Speeds – although you can download programmes to watch online, the majority of people stream videos directly from the BBC site. It is crucial that the VPN server has enough speed, otherwise programs will stutter, stall and buffer every few minutes – a uniquely frustrating experience especially on Match of the Day!
- Customer Support – it's important to have a knowledgeable and responsive support department. It can be particularly useful if you want to access other resources where you need help accessing them. Also remember that the media companies including the BBC are constantly looking at ways to block VPNs and it's likely only the most secure and technical will survive.
- Security and Privacy – although it's not always the priority, a VPN is primarily a security service. It is in the best interests of it's continuation to work with the BBC iPlayer that the connection is secure and the users identity protected.
- Discrete – sounds a silly option, but the most successful VPN services for watching the BBC are the low key ones. Anything openly advertising their TV watching credentials is likely to come onto the radar of the BBC legal department. That normally leads to a service closure so be warned. Pick a VPN service which is focused on security, but has fast UK servers too.
Of course, it's difficult to assess these aspects without trying out a VPN service directly which is why you should always test out a trial package with your selected service first. Not only will this give you a chance to check out the options, client software and support but you can also ensure it works with the BBC and any other channels you wish to access. Basically a well configured and set up VPN should allow access to any website as long as it has a server in that country. So if you want British sites then UK servers should be your priority, if you want US channels then ensure they have servers in the USA and so on.
Over the last few years it's definitely got much harder to access the BBC iPlayer as the corporation seeks to restrict access to license holders who are physically in the UK. Yet it's still perfectly possible to watch the BBC and all the other geo-blocked UK TV stations irrespective of your location. The reality is that the few which have kept a low profile and been around for a decade or more are still working perfectly. The market is unfortunately flooded with many operators who keep disappearing and getting blocked.
Our recommendation for a reliable BBC live VPN is to use one of the market leaders with servers all across the world. Particularly important it has a huge number of UK based servers and the company has extensive experience in supporting users who are trying to bypass geo-blocks particularly from the BBC and US sites.
Here's the best servers for the BBC from my experience but try out them all # 729-732, 757-764, 1044-1045, 1022-1025, 717-720, 745-752, 81-84, 974-977, 481-483, 689, 1057 .

NEW CASTLE, Ind. – The chief of the New Castle Police Department died Monday evening.
Assistant Police Chief Matt Schofield told The Courier Times that Chief Brad Catron had been suffering from flu-like symptoms over the past week and complained of chest pain.
The newspaper reports that Catron was taken to St. Vincent Hospital in Indianapolis on Friday, where he remained a patient until being released Sunday. On Monday, he reportedly went to Henry Community Health, where he passed away.
The cause of the death is unclear at this time. Schofield told the paper that an autopsy is scheduled for Tuesday morning.
New Castle Mayor Greg York issued this statement to FOX59:
"Our chief Brad Catron had served on the police force for 28 years, been the chief for the last 6 years.
He served with honor and respect. Chief Catron was doing a great job with our police department. He served our community with the utmost respect of our citizens and the entire police force. Chief Catron will be deeply missed."
This story will be updated as more information becomes available.

This is another of those interesting emails that goes around the world. So, though we know who sent it, we don't now who wrote it. But thanks to the writer, whoever you are.
And now, without further ado, here it is:
Ever wonder what would happen
if we treated our Bible like we treat our cell phone?
What if we carried it around in our purses or pockets?
What if we flipped through it several times a day?
What if we turned back to go get it if we forgot it?
What if we used it to receive messages from the text?
What if we treated it like we couldn't live without it?
What if we gave it to Kids as gifts?
What if we used it when we traveled?
What if we used it in case of emergency?
This is something to make you go....hmm...where is my Bible?
Oh, and one more thing.
Unlike our cell phone, we don't have to worry about our Bible being disconnected because Jesus already paid the bill.
Makes you stop and think 'where are my priorities?
And no dropped calls!
When Jesus died on the cross, He was thinking of you!

Growth groups start up again next week! Sign up for a group today if you weren't a part of one last quarter.
1. How would you summarize Pastor Billy's sermon to a friend? What one principle stood out most to you?
2. Read Lamentations 1 – Notice how the imagery of a widow, enslaved, comfortless, without dignity, taunted, exiled and
desolate, paints a picture that is as bad as it can be. Sin is cosmic treason and shouldn't be taken lightly. Reflect on how you've viewed your sin in your own life. Is it serious or something minor?
Spend some time confessing to God the sins that have entangled your walk with Him.
3. Read Lamentations 2 – Notice how it is actually God who is bringing condemnation on the nation… How come? Doesn't He love His chosen people?
Pray through verse 19 – this is the answer to our sin… Pouring it out to Him.
4. Read Lamentations 3 – this is the centerpiece of the book. It offers hope. ESV Study bible says, "Grief is important even for Christians, but with this proviso: we should not grieve as those without hope." In the midst of grief, there is still hope in Christ.
What was your favorite verse?
5. Read Lamentations 4 – How will you pay for the sins that you have committed against God? If your answer isn't Jesus then you will never have hope. Put your trust in Jesus and rely on Him to pay for all of your sin.
6. Read Lamentations 5 – reflect over Pastor Billy's sermon. How can you pray differently the rest of the week?
7. Come and serve at our Fall Festival this Friday from 6-9pm at Horseshoe Park. Invite your neighbors. One little invite has the potential of changing someone's eternal life.
Lamentations 5
[1] Remember, O LORD, what has befallen us; look, and see our disgrace! [2] Our inheritance has been turned over to strangers, our homes to foreigners. [3] We have become orphans, fatherless; our mothers are like widows. [4] We must pay for the water we drink; the wood we get must be bought. [5] Our pursuers are at our necks; we are weary; we are given no rest. [6] We have given the hand to Egypt, and to Assyria, to get bread enough. [7] Our fathers sinned, and are no more; and we bear their iniquities. [8] Slaves rule over us; there is none to deliver us from their hand. [9] We get our bread at the peril of our lives, because of the sword in the wilderness. [10] Our skin is hot as an oven with the burning heat of famine. [11] Women are raped in Zion, young women in the towns of Judah. [12] Princes are hung up by their hands; no respect is shown to the elders. [13] Young men are compelled to grind at the mill, and boys stagger under loads of wood. [14] The old men have left the city gate, the young men their music. [15] The joy of our hearts has ceased; our dancing has been turned to mourning. [16] The crown has fallen from our head; woe to us, for we have sinned! [17] For this our heart has become sick, for these things our eyes have grown dim, [18] for Mount Zion which lies desolate; jackals prowl over it. [19] But you, O LORD, reign forever; your throne endures to all generations. [20] Why do you forget us forever, why do you forsake us for so many days? [21] Restore us to yourself, O LORD, that we may be restored! Renew our days as of old— [22] unless you have utterly rejected us, and you remain exceedingly angry with us.

text: More than 70 shops across Highland take part in Autism Hour (12 October 2018) More than 70 shops across Highland – including The Entertainer in Inverness – are taking part in our Autism Hour this week (6-13 October). From the Co-op in Thurso to Home Bargains in Fort William, shops are turning down music and dimming the lights, as well as providing staff with information about autism to enable them to help and understand customers. Alison Footitt, who works at our Highland Information Service in Inverness, said: "Autism Hour is a major event for the National Autistic Society Scotland and I'm really proud that so many businesses across Highland are taking part. "We know that 66% of autistic people in Scotland avoid the shops. And, shockingly, 27% have been asked to leave a public place for reasons associated with their autism. They and their families want and deserve to have the opportunity to go to the shops, just like anyone else." Cllr Andrew Baxter, Chair of the Highland Council's Care, Education and Housing Committee said: "It's great to see so many shops in communities across the Highlands participating in and supporting Autism Hour. This can make such a difference to autistic customers and their families and helps to raise awareness of how autistic people experience social situations such as shopping and the practical things we can do to make changes." Autism Hour was launched last year as the first mass-participation event to encourage shops to be more autism friendly. It is designed to highlight that small changes can make a big difference to autistic customers and their families. We hope that, after participating in Autism Hour, shops will introduce regular autism-friendly sessions. The Entertainer toy shop, based in the Eastgate Centre, already has a Quiet Hour every week. Gary Grant, CEO of The Entertainer, said: "The Entertainer is committed to creating a comfortable shopping experience for all our customers and our Quiet Hour, which takes place in all stores every Saturday and during the school holidays, for the first hour of opening, allows us to create a calmer shopping environment for autistic shoppers and their families. So, we're delighted to partner with the National Autistic Society as the official sponsor for Autism Hour 2018 and all 150 The Entertainer stores across the UK, including our Inverness store and 11 stores across Scotland, will proudly participate." Many celebrities have backed the campaign including Anne Hegerty and Christine McGuinness. Chris Packham, TV presenter, naturalist and National Autistic Society Ambassador, said: "I rarely go into supermarkets. I find that environment really challenging, all of the bright lights, the confusion of the enormous complexity of goods in there, plus all the smells and the sounds. It's a difficult environment. And that's why I'm very keen to support Autism Hour, those shops which offer an hour where they make the whole atmosphere a lot more relaxing for autistic people." There are around 58,000 autistic people in Scotland. Being autistic means seeing, hearing and feeling the world in a different, often more intense way to other people. Autistic people often find social situations difficult and can struggle to filter out the sounds, smells, sights and information they experience, which can make busy public places, like shops, overwhelming. Support for autistic people in Highland is available through the National Autistic Society Scotland's Highland Information Service, which offers advice for parents and carers across Highland, runs events and runs a library of books and sensory items from The Pines in Inverness.

I backed up all my files from a Windows computer that I use for school, onto a USB. I can open all files and use them successfully except for one file which is a .Ink file. I only have my Mac computer with me since I'm in another country. How can I open a .Ink file on a Mac? I desperately need to open this shortcut...any solutions? Please help!!!
First of all, with regards, I understand you are just switching to a Mac. :)
Files that *cannot* be opened on a Mac without dual-boot support, an emulator, or Wine on Mac include Windows executables (.exe), dynamic link libraries (.dll), or related files. Oddly enough, Safari 4+ can open .hta applications with ease.
The file you are trying to open is on that list as well. It is called a symbolic link in UNIX terms, hence where it got the extension .lnk from--it really should be .link, but this originated from Windows 95, where only three-letter extensions were allowed. On Windows, it is kindly masked over as an icon which looks like the one for the real program, with a shortcut arrow on it. A shortcut link would not help you in this case, because it is only a *link* to the real program, which without the methods I mentioned, will not run.
Even if I could assist you in opening a shortcut, it would not help. What we need to do is to open the program that you want, and make an alias to it (which, by the way, is Apple's way of making a shortcut--only with a lot more stability, because in OS X they are much more powerful due to UNIX inherency.)
Let me know what program, exactly, you desperately need to open...
Glad to work with you. If you found this answer to be helpful, please give it a +1. Feel free to post back for additional questions.

The Jager Schnitzel was delicious and the apple strudel was the best we have ever tasted.
Nice new outdoor seating! Great drink specials, attentive wait staff!
Great food and service,
We had a great dinner at the Jolly Onion. Service was attentive and cheerful and the food was delicious (huge portions). Surprisingly reasonable, considering the high quality.
Food and service were great! We were seated immediately. There was live music when we were there and the preformer was very considerate about the volume. Tables in the bar area were quite close, but it was a fun evening
This was our first visit since the reopening of the restaurant, and it was a great experience! The decor has been spruced up, and they allow you to feel like you are in an intimate setting, even with many people in the dining room. We were seated promptly, given a chance to review the menu, and then we placed our order. Appetizers of the German pretzel and the cheese board, entrees of Jaegerschnitzel and Cordon Bleu, desserts of Cheesecake and Black Forest Cake. The bread served was delicious, and the portions were quite generous and faster wonderful. Already planning our return!
Warwick has many "fine" restaurants with City-quality food. This is not one of those, but it IS fantastic. Sort of an "institution" here, a family-style place with wood panelling and incredible Scandinavian comfort food. It's like eating at your Polish-American friend's house who's Mom is an amazing cook...with 1970's look decor, to boot! It's as kitchy as kitchy gets! Great bar and selection...you will NOT leave hungry. (Swedish meatballs and perogis to DIE for!)
First time back since reopening, disappointed, herding couples to a dingy back wall while dining area virtually empty! Don't believe the pics on line, dark and dreary. Old painted damaged base board heat. The staff was friendly, inexperience showed, took 1/2 hr for appetizer. Ordered beef Med, got dark red center, Traveled 25 min . Not again!
Sam was a wonderful waitress!
We love the Jolly Onion but sometimes the food is a bit bland and the atmosphere is a bit loud.
This is a cozy spot for excellent German-based food with fantastic beers (although I am not a beer drinker), very friendly service (with the exception of Steve at the desk who for some reason did not want to seat us in main dining room even though it was empty except for one table. We had a reservation but he just said "I have too many reservations coming in". I insisted because I did not want to sit on a hard piece of wood in the bar area, and lo and behold at 5:30 when we left only one other table had been filled.), and great homemade desserts. Try potato pancakes, jaeger Schnitzle & strudel.
Service was excellent however one of the five entrees at our table was disappointing. The Farmers platter featured excellent smoked sausage, good pierogies and bacon.....but both the mashed potatoes and sliced pork were dry and overcooked. Additionally it would be helpful if the restaurant had better lit signage by the road. Two of our guests drove by twice before locating it.
Excellent Thanksgiving dinner. Food was hot, delicious & plentiful. Service was attentive without being intrusive. Thankful they were open. Will be back to try their regular menu. Highly recommend.
I usually get a dish with home fries but they changed to roasted potatoes. Liked it better with sliced potatoes.
I'm a Chardonnay drinker, they only have one by the glass and it is not drinkable. Otherwise always an enjoyable experience and nice staff.
The tastiest of European flavors served by such a friendly staff that extended great service. I revisit more often if I want an hour away.
We expected a more German menu. Disappointed.
We had a very nice lunch visiting with old friends. The dining area was quiet for good conversation. Food was excellent and abundant..had nice left overs for the next day. Hope to go back soon.
Glad to have The Jolly Onion open again the food was great and portions big.
We sat in by the bar would have rather been in the dining area.
The Jager Schnitzel was over breaded
The bench in the bar was uncomfortable for dinner
Drinks are over priced
The greeter was very nice
Food was served very promptly
Sauerbraten should be everyday
We miss the old Jolly Onion
Currently living in North Carolina, we returned for the first time since our wedding reception at Jolly Onion Inn 43 years ago. Our waitress was outstanding, the food amazing. Finished with the best apple strudel! If there has to be a downside, it was very loud, tables close together and very busy! However we are so happy to see it open again, thriving, and maybe in 7 years we will have our 50th wedding anniversary there! Keep up the good work. Congratulations Pine Island for having this gem return!
Great food and service! Fairly pricey but good value for what you spend. We will be returning!
Wait staff was very attentive, greeted us and had us seated quickly. The owner came around to check on us which was a very nice touch. I had previously emailed the chef to inquire about accommodation for gluten allergies and received a prompt response that JO could accommodate with some of their dishes.
The salads were large and very delicious. The onion soup was also very good, and not overly salty.
It was reasonably busy Saturday night for our visit, the front dining room was full and a private party was being arranged in the back dining area.
All our meals were delicious with generous servings of meat. Chef Armand did a great job in accommodating gluten allergy by.preparing pork loin dish by swapping one side for another on the menu.
Overall a great experience, we will be back soon.
Menu was very limited. My husband wanted beef (none on the menu) and I don't eat beef or chicken . Not enough to choose from. We are use to getting salad with a meal and that was extra? I did have the Salmond it was a little to fishy tasting for me. Our daughter had French Onion soup and that was a little to sweet tasting. This was our second try and it wasn't appealing .
They need to put some carpets do n or noise dampening material or curtains because the mouse is awful
Inexperienced servers, took some time to get any attention or drinks or even water. Food was very good. It's newly reopened so it should improve. Says business casual on their site but people were very dressed down in t-shirts and shorts
What a pleasant find. A cozy atmosphere with friendly service, and an unusual menu with German influences. Fantastic flat, crispy potato pancakes, delicious battered onion rings ( crisp but nkt greasy), the best onion soup we have ever had including in France, and save room for the real apple , strudel. Will definitely come back. Hearty but excellent food in comfortable surroundings .
The waitress was very attentive and quick with our drinks and ordering. The salad and appetizers were good. My son liked the salmon with real mashed potatoes. The room was a bit dark with dark wood tables and chairs.
As a Warwick resident I am glad that this restaurant was re-opened!! Great cocktails too!
Good service. Unfortunately the basic food I ordered needs improvement. The onion soup was burned, cheese top, & too much bread in it. The lobster was overcooked, chewy as steak. And the corn on the cob was very overcooked. For$ 140 for 4 people we were disappointed, altough we were excited to see it reopen.
I was so happy that this restaurant is back. Food well prepared with generous portions. Fabulous baked onion soup. The decor has not changed and this is a good thing as this place has a special feeling that evokes its elegance of the past. I will be going again.
We had a great experience! Food, service, atmosphere -all were great. We're definitely going back.
real food, local ingredients, generous portions. You can have a conversation, atlthough it is a bit noisy due to acoustics. Thank you for NOT playing idiotic music i.e. rock&roll like so many restaurants do nowadays. I refuse to eat in a restaurant that plays loud music! The heartsof lettuce salad w/bacon is my favorite dish. The pickled beets are excellent on top of the salad.
Onion soup was amazing. Bring your appetite as the portions are fit for a lumberjack! Don't pass up the apple strudel as full as you may be, you will regret it.
The menu is quite small and there are not enough entrees to choose from. The appetizer section is filled with items that should and could be placed with as entrees. The menu is mostly filled with dishes $20 and over, it's very pricey. Kids entrees offered are minimal. Most entrees are not 3 course meals as my fried flounder came with steak fries and macaroni salad, no vegetable/salad offered. Dessert, which we skipped, was offered. Cake, $9 a slice.
Pickled beet appetizer was very good.
Homemade onion bread was quite good.
Sauerbraten was very tender and more than I could eat.
Apfelstrudel was superb. Homemade whipped cream.
Potato Leek soup could have been better.
Red Cabbage could have been better.
There was a tendency to put sugar in most/all of the main meal foods.
Only the Pickled beets need it because of the sweet/sour marinade.
The rest don't need it.
The Potato Leek soup was a bit oily.
Would have liked to have a nice imported Weizenbier on tap.
However that is not on the list.
This is our first time back since it was reopened. The food and drinks were wonderful and it was nice to see the old feel of the restaurant was still there. The service was good despite there being a very large and loud party in the next room. At times the party was so loud you couldn't carry on a conversation. We will definitely be back hopefully on a quieter day.
Food was amazing. Staff was amazing. My only complaint was Too noisy and too cold by the bar area. Ac was blowing right on us. Made reservation for 2 and it didn't mention bar area. It made us rush through our dinner to get out of the cold.
Food was very good, portions were nice size. Cocktails were amazing. Main dining room could have been cooler.
Awesome food and selection. I would recommend this establishment.

Talking with designer Rob Carmichael
Excellent album covers catch the eye, dribble it around a little, and then snap it back into place, forever skewed. They can be funny, gross, shocking, stunning, or just plain wrong. They can define artists.
With the Pitchfork News feature Take Cover, we aim to track down the best new album covers taking up web space and vinyl bins across the world and get the story behind them. In this installment, we check in with designer Rob Carmichael, who put together the cover for Dirty Projectors' Bitte Orca, as well as Animal Collective's pulsating Merriweather Post Pavilion. Read the interview below.
Pitchfork: This Bitte Orca cover is a direct take-off of a previous Dirty Projectors cover, the one for Slaves' Graves and Ballads. Whose idea was that?
Rob Carmichael: The whole thing was pretty collaborative. It was basically [Dirty Projectors main man] Dave Longstreth and me sitting down and talking about it. But I think, if I remember correctly, that was mostly his idea to try and evoke the old cover, to try and tie the new thing back to the history of the band. It really was literally that we traced the old drawings and then tweaked them enough to work on the new cover.
Pitchfork: It's interesting that the cover features two of the girls in the band instead of Longstreth himself. Why is that?
RC: At that photoshoot that my friend Jason Rothenberg did, there were pictures taken of Dave. And in fact, Dave is featured on the back cover. We sort of degraded a version of the photo of Dave for the back cover where he's in the same pose with Nietzsche, so that's actually from the same photoshoot. But I don't know other than it just sort of made sense, and I think it felt a little more balanced.
If you put Dave across from someone else, at least for me-- and I don't think this was ever discussed explicitly-- I think it would be seen as a little more adversarial. He's seen as the frontman, so anybody he's facing, there may be too much dominance. Plus, I think in some ways the idea was to evoke old-school European paintings and the female form. The female subject is a complicated set of references of interest in classical, mid-European painting that was being played with a little bit. That sounds really full of itself, but it was more organic than being sort of snobby like that.
A subtle thing that I think that people miss, that especially the photographer would probably be psyched about: The image of the two women is actually composited, and if you look really closely, even though they're up against a white wall, it appears like the light is coming from behind them, which I have to give a nod to the photographer Jason for doing. So there's a certain weirdness that comes through. It's off a little bit, with the red and blue over their faces. But they're definitely lit from behind in an impossible way because of the photo montage that was really subtly done by Jason.
Pitchfork: Why Nietzsche for the back cover?
RC: You'd have to ask Dave. That was definitely his baby. To me, it just seemed really funny to put in there. I mean, maybe until you see the band live, you're kind of unclear who these women are on the front cover. And then to see Nietzsche on the back just seemed really playful. Dave is a pretty seriously thoughtful dude, and I'm sure he has a lot to say about Nietzsche. But for me, it actually just seemed funny or amusing, that the whole thing wasn't so serious and could be a little playful.
Pitchfork: It makes it look like Nietzsche is a part of the band.
RC: [laughs] I mean, literally, Dave suggested it, and I just started laughing out loud. For me, with the design, so much of it is just getting people's attention. People, for good or bad, look to the music first and foremost, so if you can do something on the cover that gets people to laugh or hate it, really feel bad about it, or really love it-- some sort of strong reaction-- for me, that's a successful album cover.
Pitchfork: I was looking at your website, and I didn't realize that you've done all the Animal Collective album covers over the past few years.
RC: Yeah, I've done more or less everything of theirs except for their first record and a couple EPs that were UK only.
Pitchfork: How did you get into doing album covers?
RC: I've had a little record label called Catsup Plate for quite some time, 15 years or something ridiculous like that. It honestly just started because I would have to figure out how to get a cover together for something I was releasing in some minuscule edition, back in the day. I think my first big thing was working with Black Dice on this EP [Peace in the Valley] they did for Three One G many years ago. It was a 7", and it came with a book of art, a 30-page art book. From there, it became word of mouth. The Animal Collective thing happened because I put out Danse Manatee back in the day and worked with them on that art. It became a collaborative thing with them and other people, and it was word of mouth from there.
Pitchfork: Have you got a lot of response for that Merriweather Post Pavilion cover?
RC: [laughs] Yeah. Yeah, people hate it. A lot of people really hate it. A lot of people really love it. A lot of people thought it was quickly thrown together, which is not the case.
Pitchfork: No, it looks like it would take a lot of work.
RC: Yeah, the gesture itself is very simple, but it's actually based on some pretty academic research by this Japanese optical theorist. We actually ended up having to-- even though it was recreated and redrawn-- we had to license it from him, just because we didn't want him to sue for stealing ideas. But yeah, a lot of people really hate it. But for me, my job is to get people to engage with the package. Part of being a record cover designer is kind of mercenary; you want people to buy it or at least notice it in the store, although that's happening less and less these days. So if people hate it and pick it up and show it to their friend when they're at the record store and say, "Look at this ugly cover," at least I've gotten them to pick it up and engage with it. On the other hand, a lot of people really love it. In the band, I think, it fits the kind of repetitive and trippy vibe of the music on the record itself. A lot of strong feelings both ways for that.
Pitchfork: I'm sure a cover like that really makes people more likely to pick up the vinyl, too.
RC: I would think so. I would hope so, too. Just propping that thing up big and playing the record is pretty sweet. And Domino made a select number of posters of it that are something like two feet by three feet, and that's a pretty cool way to look at it, too. It really can take up your whole field of vision if you get close enough to it.__

Donald points to Tiger Woods' mindset
The 14-time major victor, 40, who has been out of action since undergoing surgery late previous year to cure a long-standing back injury, said concerns over form - rather than fitness - were behind the decision to delay his comeback. "It's really hard to get comfortable unless you actually put yourself through it". The excitement was tempered earlier in the week when Tiger Woods withdrew .
Jim Harbaugh: Jabrill Peppers should win Heisman
MI accumulated 309. MI took a 14-0 lead with 4:27 left in the first quarter thanks to a 30-yard touchdown pass from Speight to wide receiver Jehu Chesson, who made a diving over-the-shoulder catch in the corner of the end zone. Certainly, the Wolverines have many challenges ahead. 1977: No. 1 MI routed Wisconsin 56-0 to improve to 6-0. The Wolverines are holding opponents to just 12.4 points per game and only 248 yards of offense per game, which is good for fifth-best in the country.
Sabres star Eichel injures leg in practice
As his skate became caught, he fell, yelled in pain and gripped his left leg. Coach Dan Bylsma says he injured his ankle. Jack Eichel went down during Wednesday's practice. Eichel, a Hobey Baker award victor, is the focal point of the Sabres' attack as its top-line center. They will now likely slot Zemgus Girgensons, Derek Grant or Sam Reinhart into the No.
Nationals beat Dodgers 8-3 to take 2-1 lead in NLDS
To advance, the Dodgers will need two wins, one in Game 4 on Tuesday and another on Thursday in Game 5 in Washington . Considering where the series could be, if Jose Lobaton did not hit the homerun, Baker and pitching coach Mike Maddux must be giddy.
Pakistan names Test team for first Test against West Indies
Younis was not fully recovered from Dengue therefore the doctor advised him rest. "We have been searching for one who can bat in the lower order and bowl as well". Azam, who has played 18 one-day internationals and four Twenty20s, has yet to play a Test. "We didn't want them to waste their time on the bench but rather they play some cricket get themselves back into form".
Rookie-led Cowboys are 4-1 after 28-14 win over Bengals
It stung to not cash in on more of those possessions, which likely cost them the game, but the Cowboys were doing what they set out to do, get a lead and play from ahead on the scoreboard. And all those fans who have gone missing from NFL TV ratings so far this year would have a hard time saying no to a prime-time showdown between two fierce rivals starting the two best rookie quarterbacks to come along in 2016.

Bringing Out Your Brilliance
We each have amazing capacities and potential within us:
â– A physical body which can naturally heal itself given the right conditions
â– Energy and vitality
â– Ability for mental clarity, focus and awareness
â– Emotional intelligence to recognise the right response for us and others
â– Intuition, a higher consciousness or spiritual sense that can guide us in life
â– Creativity
However throughout our lives, as we encounter the impact of external situations and develop stress in our mind/body, these brilliant aspects of our whole being become dulled down and our innate brilliance becomes hidden. We can become unhappy, dissatisfied, negative, with regret or confusion. We can feel stuck, and often experience fatigue and ill health.
The body is not separate to the mind or emotions – each impacts the other.
Modern life and build up of stress can simply take its toll. Prolonged stress can in fact be incredibly damaging and cause a number of physiological and psychological problems.
When we become out of balance with ourselves, our potential doesn't shine as well as nature intended. Sometimes we glimpse our radiant brilliance from deep within, only for other stuff to get back in the way. The good news is you can uncover this brilliance so it becomes more and more present in your life. It's all within you, it just needs bringing out!
Reiki is a wonderfully gentle way to centre and balance us, putting us back in touch with ourselves, calming & uniting the mind and body, to enable the optimum flow of natural energy to these key functions, and to stimulate these capacities within us.
Personal Coaching enables you to actively take ownership for your current situation, to clear the way and achieve practical actions for achieving the life you want to have.
Whether you choose Reiki or Life Coaching sessions, you will benefit from the supportive skills and techniques of both, and the rounded experience & training of Christina Norwich

She continues to practise Eastern Reiki training (contained within Japan until recently), with roots in Shingon Buddhism.
Accredited by the Coaching Academy and a registered teacher of the Reiki Guild.
Testimonial by Dr Robert Jefford, Master's Master of Reiki Ryoho (lineage: Dr Usui, Soke Dai, Robert Jefford):

Trying Something New.
Hi all, this is a new post this week to try something new for me, and I am not sure if even what I am trying to do will work!!!! Oh well, first time for everything. There are a few blogs I like to follow and one is frompond.blogspot.com.au On this blog there is an Art Linky, and I am going to try this for the first time today. The brief is for a Primary School based Art Lesson. I am a High School Art Teacher, but my Year 7's have… Read more Trying Something New. →

Strong wave action from Hurricane Jose drew onlookers to the bulkhead in North Wildwood. Visitors armed with cameras tried to catch glimpses of the waves crashing into the bulkhead as high tide approached Tuesday night; many got wet, and so did their cameras. North Wildwood's north end beaches took a beating from the storm throughout the day Tuesday.

If you read the comments on Permament Record over at the Backlot, you'll get an idea of the effect it had on people, including those that identified with Chris, and those who came very close to making David's choice as well.
I loved Keanu's performance in this. I think it was one of his best in his early years, so I'm very happy that it will be released on DVD this February.
Thanks to r.j.girl for the info.
I totally agree, krix, that this is one of his best. It really showcases all aspects of him: his fun goofiness in the beginning and then into the depths as he tries to deal with his loss. And that emotional scene with his friend's Dad...yowsers!!! Great movie! Needless to say, I've already pre-ordered.Posted by: r.j.girl on December 23, 2003 11:47 AM
I love this film. Keanu is very very good in this.Posted by: Keanuette on December 23, 2003 12:15 PM
i've got the tape. i agree, this is one of keanu's finest early performances. i hope they put some "goodies" on the dvd, but i guess i shouldn't count on it.Posted by: casluvskeanu on December 23, 2003 02:41 PM
As a suicide survivor this film had a huge impact on me & was the beginning of my appreciation for Keanu. Watching Chris move through the stages of his grief opened my eyes to what I was doing & made me realize that life was for the living.
On a happier note....Merry Christmas to you krix...wish I could visit here more, but the job just won't allow for now.
Merry Christmas to all of you who appreciate Keanu & who frequent this lovely site!Posted by: Ann on December 23, 2003 02:53 PM
Merry Christmas Ann! good to see you!Posted by: krix on December 23, 2003 05:10 PM
i heart Chris (everytime i hear him say to MG, "you exude sex" i just want to die!). i've recommended this movie to my counselor education students as a way to learn about the processes of dealing with suicide.
oh, and krix, i love your reference to the Violent Femmes, as well... rock on!Posted by: lori on December 23, 2003 05:52 PM
I have never seen Permanent Record entirely. It was on tv awhile back, but I didn't see it all. Thank you for the heads up that it's coming out on DVD. I've been wanting to buy this film. Now I'll just wait until February.Posted by: Lucid on December 24, 2003 08:18 AM

Life would be much easier right now if I just had a stomach bug. If I was sick, throwing up would accomplish something and I could go throw up whenever I felt like it and be better in a day or two. As it is, throwing up would accomplish nothing but making me dehydrated so I have to breathe through it and lie down and distract myself with books and it's really a pain. And I have to take care of Beauty as well.
Though actually Beauty is getting much better at being left to her own devices. This morning she didn't wake me up until after eight, when I heard her playing her glockenspiel in the front room. She'd been up for at least an hour. (Fortunately the house is sufficiently babyproofed for this to not cause me much anxiety. This is as much a function of Beauty's personality as anything else; if she ever turns into a daredevil we'll be in trouble.) And my sister took her for a large part of the morning, and of course Hero is home to take care of her in the evenings, when the nausea is worst.
And lately I've been delighted to notice that she's developing a sense of humor! Obviously she's always been a happy child, but she's actually starting to initiate jokes. At first it was prompting us to say things she found amusing, such as "I think you're silly!" or "I'll eat your belly!" Now she likes getting in silly arguments over the nature of things. This morning at breakfast she identified a strawberry on the box of cereal, and I agreed that it was a strawberry, and then she got a twinkle in her eye and announced it was a tomato. There followed five minutes of her saying "Tomato!" and giggling hysterically when I responded "noooooo!" Made breakfast more fun, which was just as well since I was having trouble eating.

Eat Yourself Happy (& Mood Lifting Overnight Oats)Jump to recipe
If you've ever sat down with a full tub of ice cream, and planning to eat the whole lot you'll know that eating yourself happy can be a tricky undertaking. Sure it tastes nice, but you ultimately end up feeling gross and cranky, and hating yourself for even doing it in the first place. That's because eating a tub of ice cream (or a slab of chocolate) doesn't actually make you happy: all it does is trick your body into releasing endorphins (which work kind of like opioids), followed by a sugar crash.
Actual happiness happens inside your brain via a complex cocktail of chemical and physical processes which all – when working well, and in concert – will leave you better able to deal with anxiety or stress, and exhibiting less depressive symptoms.
Actually, let's pause for a second. For the sake of this post, happiness means what you think it means. The debate has raged for millenia, since well before Aristotle wrote about hedonia and eudaimonia. We're not going to settle the "What is happiness?" debate here, so we've decided to just side-step it.
It stands to reason that this chemical cocktail needs ingredients to work at its best, so we've concocted a breakfast (recipe below) which gives your brain many of the ingredients it needs to get your chemical cocktail going each day. It breaks down as follows:
Brazil Nuts
Brazil nuts are the best plant-based source of selenium, an essential trace mineral which plays a number of important roles in your body. Selenium deficiency has been linked with depression and anxiety, but be careful to not overdo it. Too much selenium can also be bad for you, so stick to two or three Brazil nuts per day. Selenium can also be found in spinach, mushrooms, brown rice, and a number of other foods so don't be too worried if it's been a while since you last ate a Brazil nut.
Pumpkin Seeds
Pumpkin seeds, for breakfast? Yes, they taste pretty good and are a great source of Zinc – another trace mineral which is used in a host of important internal bodily functions related to mood and anxiety, but also related to immune system functioning. Keep pumpkin seeds around, they work great as an any time snack too.
Fresh (or Dried) Figs
Figs are a good source of magnesium, another micronutrient (the lack of) which has also been linked with mood disorders. To meet your recommended daily intake of magnesium only using figs you would need to eat about four cups of dried ones, so don't rely on this breakfast to meet your target! Luckily it's also found in plenty of other foods you may already be eating, like baby spinach, kale, or quinoa.
Little black nutrient bombs, we just added these because they taste great. They can be hard to find though, so really add any kind of berry – the nutrient profile of most berries are quite similar, rich in antioxidants, vitamin C, and other essential nutrients.
Soy Milk
Soy milk is a pretty good source of tryptophan, an amino acid your body uses to build serotonin. You may have heard of serotonin, it's basically your very own mood stabilizer. The most common form of antidepressants today (SSRIs, like Prozac and Zoloft) are designed to increase the amount of serotonin in your body.
Luckily a normal diet usually gets more than enough tryptophan, as it's commonly found in high protein foods. A 100g of tofu, for example, will easily meet your recommended daily intake of tryptophan.
Steel Cut Oats
Besides tasting great, steel cut oats are high in fiber and complex carbohydrates, which will help you feel fuller for longer, and allow your body a good amount of slow release energy to keep you going for longer too. Complex carbohydrates also elevate your insulin levels (a good thing, if you're normally healthy) which will let your body effectively absorb the tryptophan mentioned above.
It's not just about eating though…
Food on its own cannot make you happy though. You're more complex than that. We are all different, and we all respond to different things in different ways but – when it comes to happiness – there are a few common denominators you really should take seriously, if you're not already.
Eat breakfast
People who eat breakfast every day show significantly less symptoms of depression and anxiety. Every day. The positive effect of breakfast on mood does not show for those who "sometimes" eat breakfast.
You probably know this one already, as the science has been settled and well-understood for quite a long time. Exercise acts as a mood stabilizer and antidepressant. The key here is to not be a hero. For the sake of mood, regularity is more important than intensity. In other words, a daily brisk walk would do more to improve your mood than a weekly session of brutal exercise.
The effect of sunshine on mood is quite well-known too. If you are able (and if it doesn't break any quarantine rules), try combine sunshine and exercise and go for a brisk 30 minute walk when the sun is out! Remember to apply sunscreen before you head out.
Gut Bacteria
The link isn't fully understood yet, but there is clear evidence suggesting a link between good gut bacteria and mood. While scientists figure it all out all we can do is try optimize our gut health by eating plenty of fiber, possibly supplementing with a probiotic, or regularly eating fermented foods like sauerkraut, kimchi, and miso.
In conclusion
Everyone is different. The suggestions above (and the recipe below) probably won't lead to you skipping joyously through the house if you weren't skipping around already. What they do aim to do is give your body its best chance of behaving optimally on its own.
And that may not be enough. These are trying times for us all, so remember to be kind to yourself – it's ok to be anxious and down, just try not to stay there for too long. And check in on your friends from time to time, especially the quiet ones!

Miscellaneous Poems
O Quiet is the wind yet something stirs
Between our world and heaven's starry skies
A spirit, shall I say, that knows a form
Beyond all that which beauty can describe;
A whole expanse of night pervades my sight
Disturbing naught that seeks of silent rest,
And yet withal I feel a wondrous thing
Upon the vision of unopen?d eyes
That now proclaims the portent of our fate:
The needs of life have made of us a span
And we shall from our ashes, phoenix-like,
Cry, "Hail the advent of the superman."
God's Lament
When I bestow beneficence upon man, He distances himself from me. When I heap calamities on his head, He draws nigh.
Ode to Unchastity
Unchaste girls are not unchased, But unchased girls are chaste; The unchased have no time to waste, For they've faced to their distaste If they don't make haste to become unchaste, They'll remain unchased and waste.

Hello everyone, Dan here. As we promised with the release of our public Discord server, we will soon be purging the xat chat rooms from our website after almost 4 years. The chat rooms are outdated in terms of functionality and don't even work correctly across all devices, while Discord is versatile and constantly being updated. It also provides tighter moderation and an easier system for the society to keep track of things. If you have not already, and you wish to keep up to date with us, I suggest you make an account and join.
Both chat rooms will be officially removed from the website on February 25th. After that, they will be completely unavailable to the public.
See you on the Discord!

Chapter 55 - She's A Member Of The Chen Family
That morning, Lan Jinyao travelled to the set with Li Qi accompanying her. But, while they were sitting in the van, he was staring at her with a rather odd expression. Lan Jinyao was initially reading her script, but she couldn't continue as she felt goosebumps suddenly flooded her skin when she sensed his peculiar gaze.
She looked up and teased Li Qi. "Are you in love with me? If not, why would you be staring at me like this?"
A burst of laughter echoed in the confined space before Li Qi quickly waved his hand and said, "How's that possible? I already have someone I like! I'm staring at you because I was thinking that everyone from your family is quite amazing! You...let's not talk about you today and, instead, let's talk about your sister, Chen Meile. She's truly a notable and powerful individual! Although she's just a businesswoman, she's even more popular than a celebrity!"
What Li Qi said puzzled Lan Jinyao, and she couldn't quite understand what he was trying to convey.
When Li Qi saw that she didn't quite follow, he handed her his mobile. "Here! Take a look yourself, Chen Meile has made the headlines again. She rushed into a filming set to viciously beat a male artist. Not even a dozen staff members managed to stop her! Don't you think that she's plain awesome?"
Lan Jinyao had furrowed her brows after she'd read the news article. Chen Meile had viciously beat a male artist...don't tell her that it was once again because of her?
"At which filming set did this happen?"
"Which other set could it be? It was none other than the set of A Thousand Years Of Tears."
Upon hearing this, Lan Jinyao propped her head up with her hands and sighed. Was Chen Meile really her blood sister? She only knew how to bring trouble to her! This matter had made the headlines...Lan Jinyao estimated that, in a few days, multitudinous netizens would most likely push the blame regarding this matter onto Chen Meimei again.
"Chen Meimei, stop pulling that kind of expression. I actually think that you've got a pretty good sister there! She's not only formidable but also very affectionate. Look at what she said in the article; her words are totally just and forceful! She said: 'No matter what, Chen Meimei's still a member of Old Chen's family! How can she be so easily bullied by outsiders?!' Tell me, don't you find her words domineering?"
"Hmm, domineering!" she softly replied.
Soon after, Lan Jinyao's eyes returned to her script. Rouge Fermentation was an ancient costume drama. After suffering a lot of hardships, the female lead transformed into an entirely different person and went back to her clan. She then fought against her Stepmother and oppressed the second branch's Concubine. However, on the first day of shooting, the vicious and merciless second branch's Concubine from the script hadn't yet made an appearance. After having studied the entire script, Lan Jinyao speculated that the second female lead ought to be the one playing the second branch's Concubine.
"Hey, who's the second female lead? How come there's no mention of her name? Could it be that she's someone of great importance?"
Li Qi seemed to know the inside story, but he hesitated for a moment before he stammered and said, "I-it's not that like that. It's just that, a few days ago, the production crew said that they were switching out the second female lead, so her name hadn't been announced yet."
After he said that, Lan Jinyao stared at him for a long time because she had a hunch that Li Qi was hiding something from her. Hence, her expression darkened a few shades as she asked, "Who on earth is the second female lead? Is it someone whom I've crossed swords with?"
To think that someone had managed to make the crafty Li Qi hesitate and refuse to speak! She was only able to guess one thing. It could be said that, back then, Chen Meimei had risked her life to chase after Fu Bainian, while Fu Bainian himself was a very charismatic guy who attracted many bees. For this reason, Chen Meimei must've offended a lot of people, and most of them ought to be female artists in the entertainment circle. So, if she were to really guess who that person was, even she wouldn't be able to figure it out so soon.
Li Qi hesitated for a long time before he finally gave in to Lan Jinyao's stare. "My goodness, why do you keep asking me? You'll naturally find out when you get to the set later today. The previous second female lead was a newcomer, but she was replaced with Xu Jin'ge."
Lan Jinyao suddenly raised her voice and exclaimed, "Xu Jin'ge?!"
It looked like she'd wrongfully accused Chen Meimei this time as Xu Jin'ge hadn't been offended by the real Chen Meimei, but her, Lan Jinyao.
She then focused on the main point of Li Qi's words and frowned. "You said that the second female lead was a newcomer? In that case, why was Xu Jin'ge willing to be switched in? Her name alone isn't something that one can laugh at, not to mention, the company is currently giving her a lot of publicity and promoting her!"
"Say, your IQ has recently improved to where it's almost as if you're an entirely different person! You've instantly defeated your former self; every word you say is straight to the point."
Although Li Qi was just casually stating this, Lan Jinyao's heart skipped a beat, and she was instantly alarmed. However, thanks to all the training she'd gone through when she was a movie Goddess, she managed to put on a calm and collected facade.
She then continued, "Xu Jin'ge did it because of me, right? That woman knew that I'd accepted a role in a new drama, so she wanted to come over and make an appearance. It seems that she really misses me."
"Exactly! In this world, women and small-minded people are the hardest to deal with. You must be careful in the future."
While they were speaking, the van had already parked at the gates of Movie City. Li Qi stepped down first and then opened the door for Lan Jinyao.
Sure enough, it had only been a short while since Chen Meile's news article had circulated on the internet, yet there were already large groups of reporters waiting for her at the gates of Movie City.
"Chen Meimei, what are your views regarding the recent news of your sister, Chen Meile?"
A microphone was held up to Lan Jinyao's lips; it was so close, it seemed like it would be able to record the sound of her breathing. She remained calm and composed as she stared at the camera, and then commented, "My sister's quite domineering, but it's still not right to hit people. I hope that she'll be able to correct her attitude in the future."
Li Qi, who was standing beside her, wanted to roll his eyes at her. If your sister, Chen Meile, is domineering, then wouldn't that make you a tyrant?!
There were guffaws of laughter amongst the reporters after Lan Jinyao had uttered those words.
Someone immediately pressed to the front of the group and asked, "If I may ask, the victim, Xu Hao, previously forwarded a news post unfavourable to you. So, could what your sister recently did be considered as using public opinion to avenge private wrongs?"
Lan Jinyao sincerely thought about this for a while before she answered, "I don't think so! My sister and Xu Hao aren't colleagues, so this can't be considered as using public opinion to avenge private wrongs. However...randomly forwarding a Weibo post can heavily affect someone's reputation, so that kind of practice is wrong. Additionally, I don't think that my sister has done the right thing either. At least…"
Li Qi, who had sharp eyes and fast hands, had quickly covered her mouth before she'd even finished speaking.
"I'm sorry, but Chen Meimei has to go film now, so she won't be able to answer everyone's questions. Please leave, and if there are more questions, you can call me and make an appointment."
He then smiled at the group of reporters. "I'm really sorry, but we'll go in first."
After saying this, Li Qi dragged Chen Meimei by her arm towards the gate, while complaining, "Oh dear lord, quickly follow me! Currently, the headlines are focused on Chen Meile, but I estimate that if you'd continued earlier, the headlines would once again be targeting you! Can't you think in my shoes and give me a break for once?!"
Lan Jinyao blinked innocently as she replied, "Since my sister's so domineering, I shouldn't let her lose any face, right?!"
Although she wasn't the real Chen Meimei, she was at least occupying her body, so she couldn't let the personality gap between the two sisters become too big.
"Yes, yes, yes! Your family's extremely domineering," said Li Qi. He then softly grumbled, "As domineering as a tyrant."
Lan Jinyao glared at him and flung his hand away. She then took the lead and walked towards the set; the clicking of her high-heels echoing throughout the corridor.

Researchers from State University of New York and Orb Media, a nonprofit, U.S. based journalism company tested 259 bottles of water from 11 different countries including the United States. The results they found were alarming. 93% of the water contained micro plastics, which are bits of plastic that are broken down from larger plastic materials.
National Public Radio (NPR) wrote about a study by CertiChem, a testing company:
The researchers bought more than 450 plastic items from stores including Walmart and Whole Foods. They chose products designed to come in contact with food - things like baby bottles, deli packaging and flexible bags, says George Bittner (founder of CertiChem), one of the study's authors and a professor of biology at the University of Texas, Austin.
Then CertiChem chopped up bits for each product and soaked them in either saltwater or alcohol to see what came out.
The testing showed that more than 70% of the products released chemicals that acted like estrogen. And that was before they exposed the stuff to real-world conditions: simulated sunlight, dishwashing and microwaving.
...more than 90% of the products tested positive after undergoing some sort of stress.
The team concentrated on BPA-free baby bottles and water bottles and "all of them released chemicals having estrogenic activity." Sometimes the BPA-free products had even more activity than products know to contain BPA.
While there are numerous studies verifying the data, the National Institute of Environmental Health Science published a study in 2011 stating that many of the chemicals used to make plastic had estrogenic chemicals.
Almost all of commercially available plastic products we sampled - independents of resin, product, or retail source - leached chemicals having reliable detectable Estrogenic Activity (EA).
EA can produce many health-related problems such as early puberty in females, reduced sperm counts, altered functions of reproductive organs, obesity, increased rates of some breast, ovarian, testicular and prostate cancers. Fetal, newborn, and juvenile mammals are especially sensitive to very small doses of chemicals having EA.
Healthline also points out other side effects of elevated estrogen levels:
High levels of estrogen may put you at higher risk of blood clots and stroke. Estrogen dominance may also increase your chances of thyroid dysfunction. This can cause symptoms such as fatigue and weight changes.
What Can You Do?
The solution is simple. Instead of drinking water from a plastic water bottle, switch to glass or steel bottles. You should also consider switching to glass or steel containers for your food storage needs. This is an entirely preventable solution to the plastic problem, and also happens to be very environmentally friendly. Do your part by making this change a priority and encouraging your friends and family to follow in your footsteps.

Hi fellas. Here's a pic of my best metro mully caught just b4 I sold my cuddy cab a little while back. Over the 50lb mark. These fish don't come easy but magic can happen for those who persist. I just hope my new boat is lucky also. Cheers
Yeah 4sure. Just the right length I reckon. Way cheaper than a custom too which sold me.
adamibinfishin reacted to a post in a topic: Landbased King outfit.
Hi knackers. In overhead mate. Managed to find one today mate. 15kg to 24kg wilson livefibre. Kind of sold me seeing what my mate has put his thru so pretty happy I found one. Thanks in anycase bud. Cheers
Hi fellas. Just noticed this older thread. How are the Wilson landbased rods holding up? Thinking of grabbing one. Looking at the 9ft model. 15kg-24kg version. Cheers
adamibinfishin reacted to a post in a topic: Tackle Guard
Tackle Guard
adamibinfishin replied to Knackers's topic in Bait & TackleHeard good things about the tackle guard product over the years. An old mate used to use it. Like the other boys inox has been my go to on my reels and the lanox spray which is a lanolin and inox blend is gold on the reel seats on your rods as it doesn't wash off also.I Also use light machine oil on moving parts of my reels too. Pays to look after ya gear as good gear isn't cheap these days.
My mate has the new shimano t curve ian miller tk3g series. Very nice rods worth checking out. My mate is running the 10kg version but I think they have a couple lighter ones.
Not sure Dylbaa, Probably be ok but always better putting the reel on in the shop. It is primary a lure rod with split grip and not a full length lower grip either so if it sits in a rodholder for any length of time there probably would be better choice as an allrounder I reckon.
Both these balance up with daiwa 3000 reels so should be fine with your 4000 stella i think.
Loomis do some nice 10lb to 20lb rods. I have one around the 6 and a half foot and they do the same rod in the 7 foot also. I bought a 7ft black hole Amped 7ft snapper model recently which is great and also very cheap also rated to 20lb. Great for plastics and also parabolic for straight up and down in the boat.
Hi guys. Ended up ordering XL Hookem net. Has a metre drop as is but may go sum custom long drop fish friendly mesh later for monsters.
Thanks Kuerschie. Heard the berkley ones were ok. Will check them out and go from there. Noticed guys using them alot on the fishing shows these days. Thanks mate
Landing nets
adamibinfishin posted a topic in Bait & TackleHi guys, about to buy a new xlarge landing net.just wondering what everyone is using these days. I used to run an xlarge environet in my last boat which was great. Know there are some berkley rubber ones and others on the market and wondered what they are like also. For use in my tinny but chasing the larger sizes. Was gonna go and get another XL environet but thought I would see if anything newer has come onto the market. Cheers
Show us your Latest Fishing Purchases!
adamibinfishin replied to southie THE BANGA's topic in Bait & TackleGot the green light on some decent seats for the tinny today. Never hesitate when you get the green light. Hahaha!!! Some nice finishing touches for the tinny.

Christmas Cards, to the Unchurched
8 comments:
- LoieJ said...
Good grief, all too complicated. When I sent cards, I bought a couple of boxes and sent the same cards to everyone. Am I supposed to, really, buy different boxes and then make a ledger of who gets what? And how am I supposed to know if someone I knew at the Lutheran college I attended has fallen away from the faith?
Now that I do Christmas letters, it is about what the family has been up to and usually ends with a subtle statement of thanks to God and God's grace. I'm stating what I believe, not saying that everybody should believe that. And if a person reacts negatively, is that being defensive? And if so, that is not my responsibility.
I will say that I don't get a positive feeling from a Christmas card, of any type, that just has a person's signature inside. And I do wonder about completely secular cards, especially those that are cutesy from people I know who DO attend church.
Last comment, if a person has a church-job, I wouldn't expect that person to distance him/herself from his/her beliefs when sending cards to different people for a holiday based on a religious/faith event. So I wouldn't expect a person of Christian faith to go wishy washy on that when sending cards.
- altar ego said...
I have always been cautious about how I write portions of my Christmas card or what verse or phrase appears on my Christmas card. This comes, in part, from being raised in a family that values pluralism and respects differences. It is underscored further by having a Jewish sister-in-law and a brother and sister-in-law who are Tibetan Buddhists. If I make distinctly Christian comments I try to put them in the context of what the Christmas season means for Christians (and thus, for me). I have used the phrase "season's blessings" so that the recipient might interpret the wish according to what the season means to them. But no matter how much care we take, we cannot anticipate the spectrum of views on the subject nor the reactions that spring from those views. In the end respect is entirely appropriate. How we express that will vary according to who we are.
Thanks for writing on this.
- Terri said...
I tend to send out cards that say something about peace, and usually with a dove or a winter scene - think hoping for peace is good no matter what else one believes...
And for parishioners I send out something very Christian, Mary and the babe, or an angel. Yep, I do two separate cards too, but it's easy cuz the church folk are on mailing labels and the rest I hand write.
- Beth said...
We're a clergy couple and all of our cards are Christian. We don't do it to proselytize, we do it simply because it's who we are. Nearly every year, we debate whether we should buy some "seasonal" cards but we can't bring ourselves to do it.
At the same time, we do not find non-Christian holiday cards offensive (though I realize there are Christians who do); we just appreciate the contact. Nor do I take offense at receiving a Hanukkah card from Jewish friends. We also do not assume that our Christian friends are 'ashamed of the Gospel' when they choose a secular card. Some of them are, after all, funny or entertaining!
Frankly, though, I agree with your family's sentiments with regard to getting overtly Christian cards from people who act in decidedly UN-Christian ways, whether or not they're churched.
And we write at least a short note in all the cards, filling folks in on the highlights of our year. It is, sadly, the only time that some friends really get news from us.
And I have to comment on the issue of baptism: As a pastor, I deeply appreciate your children's perspective! Their integrity is admirable, especially in the face of pressure.
- Sally said...
Commenting on the Friday Five which seems to have comments turned off, greta play, loads of intentional stuff there. Hope 2010 is a good one!
- Deb said...
I usually send religious-themed cards because that's who I am. It is CHRISTmas after all. The messages however tend to focus on the idea of peace and joy. I have to admit to being slightly offended that our new pastor sent secular SEASON'S GREETINGS to us.
- Tom in Ontario said...
I don't get offended when people take "Christ out of Christmas" by wishing me "Season's Greetings" or "Happy Holidays" instead of "Merry Christmas" so I don't think anyone should take offense if my "Christmas" card actually has something to do with, heaven forbid, Christmas.
Come on LC.
- PamBG said...
Needing to proselytize people is NOT "giving an account of the hope we have in Christ".
Sending a non-religious card to someone who would be offended by a religious card is NOT being "ashamed of the Gospel"; it's showing respect for the person.
People know when "I" need to convert them for my benefit. And people know if I'm not a person who needs to convert them for my benefit. I doubt that someone who knows that, as a Christian preacher, you genuinely respect their views would be offended by a "religious" Christmas card.

About Us
Ryan and Kim Kocsis started the Storage Farm in 2015 to supplement their large (2000 acre multi farm) operation so that they could keep conservation as their main focus in farming. Since then they've implemented conservation practices on half of their managed farms with plans to do more. They work with NJ Audubon, Department of fish and wildlife, as well as other non profits and local conservation organizations to promote habitat for all wildlife and especially for endangered migrating species of birds. Some practices include no till planting of native warm season grasses that are low maintenance to reduce their chemical fertilizer input. They are sustainably managing their woodland and converting their 160 acre home farm to solar power in hopes to set an example for other young farmers to decrease their carbon footprint. Not only do they provide their customers with a local, family owned, secure storage area but also the peace of mind that they are helping a local farming family to be able to continue to preserve our land and its ecosystems for future generations.
