guest post by Padraic Scanlan
read Padraic's article in the November issue
The history of slavery and abolition is not a treasury of fables and moral lessons. The abolition of the British slave trade in 1807, and then the emancipation of slaves in British colonies in 1833, were the two obvious first steps in undoing the fiction that human beings can be property. Celebrating Britain's 'achievement' in divesting itself from a centuries-long, genocidal, world-historically evil system of labour exploitation (after already industrialising in part thanks to its profits) seems to me like a perverse interpretation of the history of the end of the British slave trade. And yet, measuring 'how moral' British abolitionism was continues to be a live issue. The question, to my mind, isn't whether or not it was 'right' to abolish the slave trade – the answer to that is obvious – but what it meant, in practice, to do the grueling, incremental work of stopping slave ships and prosecuting slave traders, and how those practices affected the lives of former slaves.
In the first decades of the nineteenth century, Sierra Leone was at the centre of British efforts to end the slave trade, and to 'rehabilitate' West Africa after centuries of slave trading. The British colony at Sierra Leone was the headquarters for the interdiction of slave ships in the first thirty years after the abolition of the slave trade. The early colonial history of Sierra Leone shows the ideology and logic of British abolitionism in practice.
The Slave Trade Act of 1807 made the British slave trade illegal, but only gestured at enforcement. The Act simply declared slave ships to be contraband, and fair game for Royal Navy cruisers. To encourage the hunt for slave ships, the captors were to receive part of the value of any ships they seized, and any gear or other cargo on board as 'prize money.' Freetown, the capital of Sierra Leone, was the home of a Vice-Admiralty Court with a mandate to process slave ships, and to release people imprisoned aboard. This court was the first court of law in the British empire with an explicit mandate to release people from slavery. However, although the court released more than ten thousand people from the Middle Passage (and its successors, the Courts of Mixed Commission, released many tens of thousands more), it was principally a commercial court. 'Freedom' was a by-product of prize money.
My article, 'The Just Rewards of their Exertions,' reconstructs the social and material history of the Vice-Admiralty Court of Sierra Leone, and of the thriving marketplace in goods, credit and insurance that built up around it during the Napoleonic wars. It shows how former slaves were legally declared to be 'captured Negroes' by the court, and how the colony came to depend on the cheap and mobile labour of people released from the Middle Passage in order to survive. As I see it, the history of the court – and, more broadly, the history of early colonial Sierra Leone – helps us to see British abolitionism more clearly.
First, as others have noticed, the abolitionists of Wilberforce's generation believed in the sanctity of the marketplace. Just as Evangelical businessmen competed for contracts, their souls competed for salvation. Slavery, in this worldview, was wrong because it denied the enslaved the ability to compete in commerce and in spirituality. Second, although the leading British abolitionists admitted that Africans were capable of 'civilisation,' many believed that the experience of enslavement had so debased both individual Africans and entire African cultures that the end of the slave trade was an automatic license to begin a civilising mission. In early colonial Sierra Leone, and especially in the slave trade court, these two ideas became a set of practices for controlling the lives and the labour of former slaves.
My point is not to condemn abolitionists for 'hypocrisy' – or to argue that what happened in Sierra Leone was a distortion of the good intentions of activists in Britain. To leading abolitionists, ending the slave trade without transforming former slaves into low-wage labourers and without subjecting them to rigid social control was as inconceivable as the idea that commerce and Christianity were not only essentially compatible, but probably identical. The day-to-day work of ending the slave trade became the day-to-day work of colonial exploitation and imperial expansion.

I noticed a little bit of blood in my stool; should I worry now or wait and see if it continues? I have a history of hemorrhoids.
— Crystal, Tennessee
While hemorrhoids are by far the most common cause of bright red blood in the stool, you should see your doctor if this is the first time that you've noticed blood. Hemorrhoids that bleed are often the result of swollen blood vessels inside the rectum, so you may not be able to detect them when you are wiping.
Hemorrhoids are very common during and after pregnancy, and in people who are constipated or have liver disease or any condition that increases pressure in the abdomen, or who engage in an activity such as weight lifting. Nevertheless, bleeding may represent something more serious, so you should see your doctor to find out whether you need further testing.

A Prayer for Yom Teruah (Micah 7:18, Psalm 118:5-9)
It is traditional to pray the following Scriptures when standing at the side of a body of water, and throwing small stones or pieces of bread, which represent casting away our sin, upon the water, and pleading with the Father for a clean slate for the coming year.
"Who is a God like You, that pardons iniquity, and passes by the transgression of the remnant of His heritage? He does not retain His anger forever, because He delights in mercy. He will again have compassion upon us; He will subdue our iniquities; and You will cast all their sins into the depths of the sea. You will show faithfulness to Jacob, mercy to Abraham, as You have sworn to our fathers, from the days of old."
"Out of my distress I called upon YHWH; He answered me, and set me free. YHWH is for me; I will not fear; what can man do to me? YHWH is for me as my helper; and I shall gaze upon them that hate me. It is better to take refuge in YHWH than to trust in man. It is better to take refuge in YHWH than to trust in princes."
Yom Teruah, or as it is commonly called "Rosh HaShanah," is the beginning of the Fall Feasts on the Hebrew calendar. It falls on the first day of the seventh month, or Tishri 1. Its name comes from Numbers 29:1, which recounts, "In the seventh month, on the first day of the month, you shall have a holy convocation; you shall do no servile work: it is a day of blowing of trumpets to you." It is also referred to as Zikhron Teruah ("a memorial of trumpets") in Leviticus 23:24-25, "In the seventh month, on the first day of the month, shall be a solemn rest to you, a memorial of blowing of trumpets, a holy convocation. You shall do no regular work; and you shall offer an offering made by fire to YHWH."
The "trumpet" in use here is the shofar, or the horn of a ram. There is power in man's obedience to God's commandment to blow the shofar, as is seen by Joshua's taking of Jericho. Joshua 6:20 recounts, "So the people shouted, and the priests blew the trumpets. It happened, when the people heard the sound of the trumpet, that the people shouted with a great shout, and the wall fell down flat, so that the people went up into the city, every man straight before him, and they took the city."
It should be noted that the meaning of "teruah" is not restricted to a trumpet blast, but can also refer to a great shout, as it is translated here.
The Return of the Messiah
Yeshua, in His first coming, fulfilled the Spring feasts of YHWH; and in His return, He will fulfill the Fall feasts of YHWH. There are a handful of passages in the Ketuvim Netzarim (the New Testament) which detail quite clearly that Yeshua's much-anticipated return as Messiah ben David– the conquering King– will be in prophetic fulfillment of Yom Teruah.
Matthew 24:30-31, "Then all the tribes of the earth will mourn, and they will see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of the sky with power and great glory. He will send out His angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and with a great shout, and they will gather together His chosen ones from the four winds, from one end of the sky to the other."
1 Corinthians 15:51-52, "Behold, I tell you a mystery. We will not all sleep, but we will all be changed, in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, and the dead will be raised incorruptible, and we will be changed."
1 Thessalonians 4:16-17, "For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with God's trumpet. The dead in the Messiah will rise first, then we who are alive, who are left, will be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air. So we will be with the Lord forever."
The House of Joseph
As has already been discussed, the return of the Messiah is heralded by the sounding of the trumpet, coinciding with the Day of Trumpets. There is an additional piece to the puzzle here to the Day of Trumpets; preserved in Rabbinic tradition, it is believed that two very significant events also transpired on the Day of Trumpets: Joseph the patriarch was released from prison, and the final restoration of the people of Israel.
The following citations are from Gemara Rosh HaShanah 11A-B.
"Rabbi Eliezer says: '…on Rosh HaShanah, Joseph went forth from prison.'" The passage later clarifies, "'On Rosh HaShanah, Joseph went forth from the prison.' Whence do we know this? Because it is written, 'Blow the horn on the new moon, on the covering day for our festival… He appointed it for Joseph for a testimony when he went forth…' " (Psalm 81:3-5)
The reason Rabbi Eliezer taught that Joseph the patriarch was brought out of Egypt on the Day of Trumpets is found in his exegesis on Psalm 81:3-5. The passage in Psalms reads as follows, "Blow the trumpet at the New Moon, at the full moon, on our feast day. For it is a statute for Israel, an ordinance of the God of Jacob. He appointed it in Joseph for a testimony, when he went out over the land of Egypt, I heard a language that I did not know." Rabbi Eliezer understood the "New Moon" referenced here to be the Day of Trumpets, as it is the appointed time in which the trumpet is commanded to be blown in conjunction with the New Moon. (Leviticus 23:23-25) Rabbi Eliezer did not believe it was mere coincidence that the two events discussed here (the Day of Trumpets and the release of Joseph from prison) were mere coincidence, but were intimately connected.
The second point of interest from Rabbi Eliezer's teaching here is that just as all Israel was released from their bondage in Egypt during the first month, specifically on Passover, so would the final bondage of all Israel be ended during the seventh month, specifically on Yom Teruah.
The passage continues, "Rabbi Eliezer says: '…on Rosh HaShanah, the bondage of our ancestors in Egypt ceased.'" The passage later clarifies, "'On Rosh HaShanah, the bondage of our ancestors ceased in Egypt.' It is written in one place, 'And I will bring you out from under the burdens of the Egyptians,' (Exodus 6:6) and it is written in another place, 'I removed his shoulder from the burden.' (Psalm 81:6, in reference to Joseph) 'In Nisan (the first month) they were delivered,' as Scripture recounts. 'In Tishri (the seventh month) they will be delivered in time to come.' This is learnt from the two occurrences of the word 'horn.' It is written in one place, 'Blow the horn on the new moon,' (Psalm 81:3) and it is written in another place, 'In that day a great horn shall be blown.'" (Isaiah 27:13)
As believers in Yeshua, we find that these traditions hold much value to our belief in the return of the Messiah– an event which also occurs on Yom Teruah– to draw the House of Joseph out of the lands to which they had been scattered, just as the writings of the Prophets and the Apostles declare to us.
Rosh HaShanah – the Jewish New Year?
As has been noted in the introduction, the traditional name for Yom Teruah is "Rosh HaShanah." This name means "Head of the Year." Now frequently in the Messianic movement, it is not uncommon to hear objections to the traditional name for Yom Teruah, on the basis that this name is not Scriptural, and that God has already called Abib 1 the beginning of the year in Exodus 12. While it is honorable that these objections are rooted in a desire to follow the Scriptures, there are two points that must be pointed out in defense of tradition.
The first point to consider is this: although the Rabbis understand Tishri 1 to be the beginning of the civil year, they also understand Abib 1 to be the beginning of the religious year year. In fact, the Rabbis understand there to be four distinct beginnings of the year that are all used for different purposes. This isn't confusing as it might sound; a good analogy to this (for those who live in the US) is that we observe a civil calendar that begins in January, but our fiscal calendar does not restart until February. When we use the phrase "start of the school year," it is commonly understood that we refer to September. The same principle applies to Rosh HaShanah on the Hebrew calendar, as will be seen as follows.
- Abib 1, which is regarded as the New Year for religious observance.
- Elul 1, which is considered the New Year for the purpose of animal tithe. (This form of the "New Year" is not commonly used today.)
- Tishri 1, which is Yom Teruah This New Year is used for civil purposes, and is used for determining most calendar-based information.
- Shevat 15, which is considered to be the New Year for trees.
The second point to consider is that the observance of Yom Teruah as some form of a new beginning has significance to our Messianic faith. As has been noted above, Yeshua's return as Messiah ben David will coincide with the blowing of the shofar, that is, on Yom Teruah. Most certainly His return would officially begin the Messianic age, and we would start counting over again from that point onward.
While I am not suggesting it is necessarily "right" to refer to Yom Teruah as Rosh HaShanah, I am suggesting that there is certainly no harm in doing so, and that this tradition has significance to our Messianic faith.

For the past couple of weeks, I have been neglecting this blog. I haven't been writing on a consistent basis, and for one week I didn't write anything due to illness. Things have been crazy for me, and I have had to schedule a couple of my days around some really weird things. But even though I have had a lot going on it is no excuse for neglecting something that I love to do and that I made a commitment to do.
The truth when it comes down to it is that the blog ended up being neglected because of my poor time management skills and my tendency to procrastinate. Instead of writing ahead when I have the time to write, I choose to do other things and many times those things are time wasters. I put off writing until the last minute and use every excuse imaginable because I am feeling afraid or overwhelmed or both.
I need to work on my time management skills and being more intentional about scheduling my time. I'm great at planning and creating lists, but I'm not good at following through with them. I will write a to-do list in a notebook and then turn the page and forget about it or leave the notebook in one room and forget it. (Out of sight is frequently out of mind when it comes to me and the lists that I make.)
Because making lists has not been working for me, I have been developing another system for my "to-do lists" and I'm hoping that it will work better for me.
Step 1: Write down tasks that need to be done on index cards.
I have started writing down what I need to do on index cards. I write down one task that needs to be completed on each card. For cleaning I have been writing down the room on the top of the index card and then a list of what needs to be done in that room. (I have been thinking about laminating those cards so that I can reuse them instead of making new cards.)
Step 2: Color code index cards.
To make it even more efficient I have been color coding them according to different areas of my life. After I write down what needs to be done, I then color in the top of the card according to the color key that I created. For things that need to be done for the blog I use the color red. For things around the house I use the color blue. For things I need to do for my grandmother I use pink and so on.
Step 3: File the index cards according to the day of the week the tasks need to be done.
After coloring the card I then file it according to the day of the week that I want to complete the task. If it is not something that I need to complete that week, then I file it under the "Master To-Do" tab. Then when I am planning my week I can just pull items from the "Master" tab.
Step 4: In the morning pull out the task cards for that day. Carry with you.
Because of "out of sight, out of mind" I keep the cards in an open tin on my desk, and then I pull out the cards for that day and can easily carry them with me during the day either in my pocket or in my purse if I am going to be away from the house. When I complete a task, the card is tossed unless it is a job that needs to be done on a regular basis then they go back in the tin under the "Master" tab until my planning time.
I am hoping and praying that by creating this new system I can get back of the self-discipline that I have lost since I am no longer working outside of the home and become more consistent in all areas of my life.

On this Mother's Day let's not forget the mother(s) of us all.
"Celebrations of mothers and motherhood occur throughout the world. Many of these trace back to ancient festivals, like the Greek cult to Cybele, the Roman festival of Hilaria, or the Christian Mothering Sunday celebration. However, the modern holiday is an Americaninvention and not directly descended from these celebrations. Despite this, in some countries Mother's Day has become synonymous with these older traditions." – Wikipedia
In the name of womanhood and humanity, I earnestly ask
That a general congress of women without limit of nationality
May be appointed and held at someplace deemed most convenient
And at the earliest period consistent with its objects,
To promote the alliance of the different nationalities,
The amicable settlement of international questions,
The great and general interests of peace.
For me, I think both themes are worthy to be celebrated this day. Have a happy and joy-filled Mother's Day. Honor the mothers in your life, divine and mundane. Perhaps we can start working on that worldwide congress of women too.

Mario Loyola has a lot of interesting things to say:
I'll sum in up in two points.
First, the perception about the Bush administration on foreign policy is wrong, especially with regards to Iran. We did not act unilaterally, but rather used as our principle that we would act together with and according to the desires of our "allies," including China and Russia. After the 2001 State of the Union address, when President Bush characterized Iran, Iraq and North Korea as an "axis of evil," there weren't many instances of calling out Iran. In fact, we had many diplomatic meetings with Iran, gaining us nothing. This totally contradicts the perception of the cowboy Bush unilaterally making demands and threatening enemies. It's just false. That is a totally incorrect characterization of the State Department under Bush. Yet, somehow, it is an article of faith for the left.
Second, the policy of the new administration's foreign policy people is extremely mistaken and also backward. They claim they just want to "try diplomacy" and see if that works first, but they aren't unwilling to use military solutions if it comes to that. First this presumes that the Bush administration didn't use diplomacy with Iran, which is totally false. They used diplomacy to no effect, instead of say, fomenting and supporting the Iranian dissident movement. Second, they miss the point of the military. One uses the military to gain concessions and a diplomatic advantage. Diplomacy doesn't work by appealing to universal humanity and post-nationalistic brotherhood, especially not with countries like Iran. One negotiates from a position of power, or one will lose. By putting the cart before the horse (diplomacy before military strategy), the Obama administration actually increases the chance of a Iranian aggression, a preemptive U.S. military strike, and staggering loss of innocent civilian life.
This is what the left doesn't understand about foreign policy and diplomacy. They think we should be a friendly, compliant face for the world, not aggressive, not belligerent, but openhearted and friendly. Once our 'enemies' see that we are not threatening, they will make peace with us and we can live together in harmony. This is bullshit. In fact, it's the opposite. By being weak, we encourage our enemies to act boldly and aggressively, increasing the chance for large-scale conflict. Whereas, if we had been strong before, and acted from a position of power before, we could have prevented a large-scale conflict.
This is the lesson of modern history. This is the lesson of Neville Chamberlain, who made concessions to Hitler and then came back triumphant, declaring that he had achieved "peace in our time." All he did was give time to Hitler to increase the size and scope of the conflict that would soon envelop the entire Western world. Had England and other European powers acted from a position of strength in opposing Nazi Germany's aggressive expansionism, World War II would not have happened.
The horse is military power, technological advantage and moral superiority. The cart is diplomacy. Like almost everything else, liberals have this backwards.

The Lendlease Bouygues Joint Venture (LLBJV) makes a commitment to protect and sustain the natural environment on which we undertake our commercial activity on the NorthConnex Project (the Project). We comply with environmental legislation, regulations and other requirements, as a minimum, and support initiatives that go beyond compliance requirements. We implement processes to support beneficial social impacts and develop a positive economic legacy. We recognise that our influence extends beyond construction activities to include our supply chain in improvements to sustainable practices.
LLBJV exhibits leadership in our environmental practices and sustainability by ensuring the continuous improvement of its Environmental Management System (EMS). We will comply with environmental legislation, regulations and other requirements as a minimum, and support initiatives that go beyond compliance requirements. In implementing this policy, our objectives are to:
LLBJV has made commitments to consider environment, social and economic aspects in procurement to demonstrate our commitment to sustainability. These include the following:
NorthConnex proudly supports the Australian Industry Participation (AIP) policies and programmes to encourage opportunities for Australian industry to compete for work in major public and private projects in Australia.
We encourage local business to be part of our project and welcome Expressions of Interest from Australian companies to provide good and services. We especially welcome small to medium enterprises and indigenous businesses to contact us to register an Expression of Interest in working on the NorthConnex Project. Examples of areas of involvement are noted below in the following categories:
The selection of subcontractors and suppliers is not solely price based, as the assessment also includes appropriate reviews of non-commercial aspects such as sustainability, quality and safety depending on the particular service being considered.
NorthConnex will ensure that all Expressions of Interest are objectively assessed when selecting the most suitable supplier. All Expressions of Interest are to be submitted to Locked Bag 1001, West Pennant Hills, NSW 2125
The NorthConnex project will reduce the total amount of vehicle emissions discharged into the atmosphere by providing a free-flowing motorway alternative to Pennant Hills Road. Improvements in air quality will be achieved by
The NorthConnex tunnels would be very flat (around eight kilometres with a grade of around 1.5 per cent south to north) with short entry and exit ramps of around four per cent. By way of comparison, the M5 East tunnel has a grade of up to eight per cent on the western exit, which causes trucks to slow down and increase emissions. The NorthConnex project alignment, with motorway-to-motorway connections at both ends, ensures efficient operation of vehicles in the tunnel and minimises emissions generated. This results in significantly less emissions than equivalent vehicles using Pennant Hills Road.
The significantly higher NorthConnex tunnel, 5.3 metres versus the 4.6 metres in the M5 East, also minimises the risk of overheight incidents blocking the tunnel, ensuring free-flowing traffic is not disrupted by oversized heavy vehicles.
Smoky vehicle cameras would be installed to automatically detect vehicles with excessive exhaust smoke, with penalties applying to offenders. A similar initiative is in place for the M5 East tunnel and has resulted in a reduction of smoky vehicles using the tunnel.

'Mary Watson' was a young Cornish woman gripped by a young mothers fear and desire to protect her baby when unknown aborigines came ashore near her home on Lizard Island, Queensland on the 27th of September 1881. Mary was born Mary Beatrice Phillips in Truro, Cornwall on the 17th of January 1860. She was well educated and migrated with her family to Queensland in 1877. She became a private tutor first in Maryborough and then Cooktown where she met her future husband, Captain Robert Watson who was a Beche De Mer fisherman. They were married on the 30th of May 1880 and set up house at Captain Watson's hut on Lizard Island off the North Queensland coast.
The couple lived happily for the first year and on the 3rd of June 1881, their son, Ferrier was born at Cooktown. Three months later, when back at Lizard Island, Captain Watson and his partner, P.C. Fuller [Phillips had been erroneously written here, it was Mary's maiden name inserted by mistake. Apologies] began making arrangements for a new fishing base at Knight Island which is about 330 Kilometers from Lizard Island or a few days travel by fishing boat. They left Mrs. Watson in the care of two Chinese servants employed by Captain Watson and departed for Knight Island. The two Chinese servants were Ah Sam, who helped with the housework and Ah Leong, who was the gardener. On the 27th of September 1881, a group of aborigines arrived at Lizard Island and during the next two days tension ran high for Mary Watson, especially so, when on the 29th of September, Ah Leong went missing.
Mrs. Watson suspected that the natives had killed the gardener and on the 30th of September when a few natives approached the hut, she fired at them with two guns left by her husband. On the 1st of October, the remaining Chinese servant, Ah Sam was speared and suffered four wounds to his side and three to his shoulder and arm. It was this incident that convinced Mrs. Watson to try to make an escape from the island. So, with her servant and child, .she collected food, water, an umbrella, a pillow and some account books, her diary, a revolver and ammunition and after placing the lot in an old Beche de Mer boiler tank, they pushed off to sea. The voyage made by the old tank was nothing short of miraculous to say the least for they were without sails or engine in a square iron tank, with little comfort from the searing tropical heat.
he little group and their unwieldy tank traversed 40 miles of sea, before landing on Number 5 Island of the Howick group. They had already landed on Number One Island but had to cast off again having found no water on that islet. They tried to hail a passing steamer while between the two islands but they received no reply. Finally, they reached number 5 island where the Chinese servant crawled away and lay under a tree to die. Mary Watson remained with her baby inside the tank where she must have sweltered.
They had arrived at number 5 island on the 8th of October. Her last entry in her diary was on the 11th of October 1881. This stated that she was very weak from thirst that she could see dark clouds on the horizon and that her child seemed much better than he had been. Shipping records show that no rain clouds or rain were in the area at that time so it seems that Mrs. Watson may have become slightly delirious at the time she wrote her last entry. When questioned regarding the occurrences around Lizard Island at the time Mrs. Watson and her group were missing. Captain Frier who was passing the island observed that he saw several brush fires on the island and that the door to the Watson's hut was ajar. Two aborigines were seen nearby and on October the 20th, the crew of the ship Neptune reported that about 40 aborigines were seen on the island.
The British warship HMS 'Conflict' took five police to the island on the 21st of October and found part of Mary Watson's diary describing the early events leading up to her leaving the island. This finding prompted a search of the area that was unsuccessful. This was until an aboriginal crewman from the Beche de Mer schooner 'Kate Kearney', discovered the body of Ah Sam under a tree on the 22nd of January 1882.
That got the search underway again, resulting in the discovery of the bodies of both mother and child. Mrs. Watson was found in the small tank lying on her back with the baby resting its head on her arm. The tank was partially filled with rainwater, which had fallen in recent days, and although there was enough food in the tank, it was lack of water that killed the three people. An interesting side note to the story was captured in sketches made of the hut and its out buildings.
These had been daubed with aboriginal motifs that showed Stingrays and other fish and what appeared to be a woman with arms and legs akimbo as if running away. Could this have been a message that the natives had only come to fish? If so, what happened to Ah Leong, did he perhaps take a canoe or boat and run away or was he killed and eaten as so many Chinese were by North Queensland and Torres Strait natives.
Why did the aborigines not follow them in their canoes? They would have known that the woman and wounded Chinese could not have gone very far. The fact that the aborigines were not showing too much interest in them after they set off in the old tank shows that perhaps the young woman would have survived if she had not left the island. Only those who were there know what really happened but history records a young mother striving to protect her child from the dangers of an early colonial Australia. The tank in which she floated for over forty miles is, I believe, in the Queensland Museum, Brisbane.
As the film industry in America rose to greater and greater heights, the need for more epic films like Moby Dick and Mutiny on the Bounty were called for by a public crying out for romantic adventure movies. Soon sea tales were the in thing as stars like Gregory Peck cashed in on the salty stories of the seven seas. Captain Hornblower and Moby Dick are two of his better films. Pirate movies and their swashbuckling heroes played by actors like Douglas Fairbanks, Tyrone Power and Errol Flynn, came into their own. Crimson haired heroines like Maureen O'Hara were the romantic rage of the middle twentieth century. At least four very good ships were bought for the Los Angeles Movie Fleet. They are listed in our little movie fleet register below. It should be realised that when ships were required to look older for a particular movie i.e.; Captain Hornblower, then the building of a high stern or aft castle was just a small inconvenience for the movie set builders.
'BOHEMIA' Built 1875. Wood ship of 1633 Tons. Length; 221.7 ft. Breadth; 40.2 ft. Depth; 25.5 ft. Built at Bath, Maine, for H. L. Houghton. She was sold to the L. A. Movie Fleet for use in films. [NP]
'SANTA CLARA' Built 1876. Wood ship of 1535 Tons. Length; 209.5 ft. Breadth; 40 ft. Depth; 25.5 ft. Built at Bath, Maine, for A.G. Ropes. She was later sold to the L.A. Movie Fleet for use in films. She ended her days as a hulk.
'INDIANA' Built 1876. Wood ship of 1488 Tons. Length: 208.9 ft. Breadth: 40 ft. Depth: 23.9 ft. Built by A. Sewall and Co for themselves. She was sold to the L. A. Movie Fleet for use in films. Master: Captain Colley.
'LLEWELLYN J. MORSE' Built 1877. Wood ship of 1393 Tons. Length: 198.2 ft. Breadth: 36.6 ft. Depth: 24 ft. Built by J Oakes and Son and owned by J. Rosenfeld. She was sold to the L. A. Movie fleet for use in films. She was later beached and burned.

Turnip is the edible tap root of the Bressica rapa plant. Turnips were a well established crop in the ancient Greek and Roman civilizations which implies that its cultivation may have begun much earlier than that.
The commonest type of turnip has a white surface with a pinkish end which is the sun exposed part of the tap root. They can vary from spherical to conical in shape, and the flesh inside is entirely white in color. Turnip leaves are also edible and are commonly known as "turnip greens".
The turnip root is a rich source of Vitamin C while turnip greens are high in folate, Vitamin A, Vitamin C, Vitamin K, and Calcium. A 100 gram serving contains only 22 calories, so you don't have to feel guilty digging into a bowl of stewed turnips. Common methods of preparation include stewing, steaming, and pickling. Baked turnips can be used as a low calorie alternative to French fries.
Turnip is shown to have many health benefits including reduction of joint damage and the risk of arthritis and osteoporosis.
Your delivery of Sri Lankan grown fresh turnips is only a mouse click away. Place your order with U & H Lankafood Exports today.

First-order ambisonics in Adobe Premiere
One-time setup
Install the ambiX Ambisonic plug-in suite.
Download the 1st order (name ending in _o1) plugins, and copy to:
- Windows:
%PROGRAMFILES%\Steinberg\VstPlugins(or your VST plugins directory)
Download the binaural decoder presets, and copy the binaural_presets directory to:
- Windows:
Download the Thrive v1.0 binaural decoder presets, and copy the thrive_v1.0 directory to:
- Windows:
- In Premiere, go to Preferences > Audio, and set Multichannel Mono Media to Adaptive.
- Go to Preferences > Audio > Audio Plug-In Manager, and click Scan for Plug-Ins.
Creating a sequence
While creating a Sequence:
- Go to the Tracks tab.
- For Audio, set Master to Multichannel and Number of Channels to 4.
- For each audio track, set the Track Type to Adaptive.
Importing spatial audio
- Import a 4-channel uncompressed audio file (.wav or .mov); it must already be in ACN/SN3D format. Audio from Zoom H2n is in this format.
- Drag an ambisonic audio file onto a track.
- Open the Audio Track Mixer for your sequence (Window > Audio Track Mixer).
- Add ambix_rotator_z_o1 to the audio track. This will allow you to rotate all spatial audio on the audio track it applies to.
- To rotate a 360 video clip and rotate its spatial audio identically:
- Use Premiere's Offset effect on the video clip.
- Use this formula to calculate the rotation in degrees for the corresponding audio track:
[horizontal center shift] / [width of video clip] * 360 - 180
For example, if you have a clip of width 3840 and the Offset effect has a horizontal shift of 1120, the equation is:
1120 / 3840 * 360 - 180 = -75 degrees.
- Use the calculated value for the corresponding ambix_rotator_z_o1's Z-axis rot setting.
- Note that if you've followed this guide, the audio rotation will be applied to an audio track, whereas the video rotation will be applied to a video clip.
If you're a pro at using Premiere, you can insert the ambix_rotator_z_o1 effect on audio clips instead:
- Select an ambisonic audio clip in the Sequence timeline.
- Open Window > Effect Controls.
- Open Window > Effects.
- Drag and drop the ambix_rotator_z_o1 effect from Effects into Effect Controls.
The effect now applies to the specific audio clip rather than an audio track.
In-editor binaural previewing
- Add ambix_rotator_z_o1 to the Master track. This will be used to rotate the listener (you!) for previewing.
Note: This audio effect must be disabled prior to exporting. If it is not disabled, your exported audio will be rotated.
- Add ambix_binaural to the Master track.
Note: This audio effect must be disabled prior to exporting. If it is not disabled, your exported audio will not be spatial.
- Double click the ambix_binaural effect in the effects chain. Each of the binaural presets has a different "pair of ears" and a different virtual speaker layout. To listen to the one used by Jump Inspector and YouTube Spatial Audio, click open and select thrive_v1.0 > symmetric_cube.
- If there aren't any presets visible in the list, click preset folder and select the binaural_presets directory extracted previously.
Known issue: When you reload your project, the ambix_binaural audio effect sometimes does not reload properly which can cause silent audio or frozen playback (that is, the cursor doesn't move forward). To fix this, select the thrive_v1.0 > symmetric_cube preset again.
- While previewing, adjust the Master track's ambix_rotator_z_o1 rot to change the listener rotation. Be sure to set it back to 0 when you're done previewing.
Note: Before exporting, be sure to disable the Master track audio effects.
Use these settings to export for Jump Inspector and YouTube:
- Format: Quicktime (.mov)
- Video settings:
- YouTube uploads- up to 6144x6144, ProRes 422 (128GB max file size)
- Jump Inspector- we recommend first exporting the master clip and encoding a lower resolution, or exporting video and audio separately. Adobe Premiere currently prevents 4 channel exports in h.264/MP4. For more information, refer to Prepare your media.
- Audio Codec: Uncompressed
- Channels: 4 Channel
- Sample Size: 16-bit
- Audio Track Layout: Single Track
- Channel Layout: Mono
How do I use ambisonic audio from a TetraMic?
- Before anything else, use the software included with the TetraMic to convert your recording from A-format to a 4-channel B-format .wav. The direct signal recorded from the TetraMic is in A-format.
- Import the 4-channel B-format .wav.
- Drag the audio onto an unused audio track.
- On the audio track, add the ambix_converter_o1 audio effect.
- Open the ambix_converter_o1 settings, and use the following preset (or enter options manually):
- Preset: .amb / AMB plugins (full periphonic) / Tetraproc > ambix
- Input channel sequence: Furse-Malham
- Input normalization: Furse-Malham
- Output channel sequence: ACN
- Output normalization: SN3D
- Voila! Your track should now be in ambiX format, and it's ready to be treated like any other Google-friendly spatial audio.
- To rotate, add an ambix_rotator_z_o1 audio effect after the ambix_converter_o1 in the effects signal chain. If it is added before, the spatial audio will be rotated around the wrong axis!

One of Tracey's fabulous samples.
As the last session as full dye recipes and all a bit 'concentrated', I thought it would be good for the the group to decide what they wanted to do this session. The decision was newspaper 'pretties' on Saturday and playing with Vilene Spunbond and transfer dyes on Sunday. They all had a great time throwing around glitter and gilding flake for a day, this is some of what they got up to . . . .
The following five images are the basic layered 'pretties' using old dyed and painted newspaper, painted Bondaweb and most things sparkly.
Four of the girls tearing and layering their 'pretties', lots of mess and fun.
Then the girls started to create more considered samples -
We all had a fab Saturday - I will post all the Sunday images in a couple of days . . . .
If any of you are interested in the course I will running it again from next May experimentaltextiles.com
I travelled up to Redditch early on Friday as I had a special 'date' with a certain fire crew in Redditch - YES!!!!! FIREMEN!!!! I was helping Brenda (who I teach for at IDC) and Redditch Council to launch their 'these hands are not for hurting' campaign. Strong role models are being asked to take part to raise awareness of the many kinds of abuse. My mission was to help the firemen make hand prints on a banner. The initiative is going so well that three more councils now want to join in. Unfortunately I have no more time to help any more fire crews - sigh . . . . . . .
Such lovely boys -
how is it that as we get older these lads are getting younger . . !!!!

Our name stands for "My House of Beauty" in French , precisely what you can expect to find at our premises: cosy ambience, friendly staff who know your name by heart, and caring, experienced therapists who'll help you look and feel good with customised beauty rituals and treatments. At Chez Moi, we don't have customers, because all our customers are our friends. As with friends, there is no thoughtless pushing of products. We care about your welfare, and all we want to do is to help you love yourself.
I have been with Chez Moi de Beaute since 1991. Soke Hong is very personal and over time has become a close friend and mentor. It's been 26 years and we are still growing.
Chez Moi is the place for a truly relaxing treatment. The therapists are great and knowledgeable, and the place is cosy with treatments and packages that suit all needs and budgets. I will definitely be back for more!
Chez Moi is my only trusted beauty provider - I've been going to them for years. Everyone there is attentive and friendly, and it's the only place I trust to go in for service without asking what they'll do in advance. I know they'll do what's needed for me to look great without breaking the bank!
I've been with Chez Moi since 1996. For these years, I've always received top notch service from the friendly staff. Each conversation and service consultation is constantly rendered with care and sincerity. Customers' needs and welfare are their topmost priority. They treat me not merely as a customer, but as a friend!
Pulsed light systems like Sharplight use hand-held flash lamps that emit gentle pulses of light which are absorbed in different skin lesions. Excellent long term results are achieved when treating hair, superficial capillaries, skin pigmentation, acne and other skin lesions.
Light based technology is based on a method called "selective photothermolysis", which works by selective destruction of a specified target without damaging surrounding tissue. When treating textural complaints such as fine wrinkles and large pores, the light stimulates growth of collagen which makes the skin glow and look more youthful.
No. During the procedure, a slight, momentarily stinging sensation might be felt, but not pain.
All pulsed light treatments are non-invasive and safe, with minimum side effects.
Skin Rejuvenation is the reversal of aging skin by neocollagenesis, which improves skin texture to obtain a younger and fresher look.
IR Lift stands for Infra-red Lift. IR technology is used in Medaesthetic medicine for making skin appear younger. IR light heats deeper levels of skin causing collagen to recoil, tightening the skin. It aids in the reduction of lax contour and loose skin.
The typical regimen is an average of 5-6 treatment sessions, spaced 4 weeks apart.
You can call your preferred outlet directly for an appointment, or book online through our web-booking portal.

Month: June 2013
A concert not to be missed
What a glorious concert! It was a packed house with standing room only and unforgettable performances. The concert theme of AS SEEN ON TV was a blast for singers and audience members alike, with TV songs and jingles from the 50s through today. Nostalgia and singing-along ran rampant throughout the performance, and unexpected commercial breaks added surprise and delight. —And that isn't even mentioning the unexpected marriage proposal (and acceptance!) that occurred on stage after one of the solo performances. Many congratulations to our two newly engaged choir members!
And looking ahead…
IT'S ABOUT TIME is the theme for our next concert, Saturday January 25, 2014, and it will be at a new location! (Central Presbyterian, our venue of many years, has exciting plans for a full-scale renovation coming up – wonderful in many ways, but it means our next few concerts will be held elsewhere). We are very pleased to announce our new concert venue will be the Unitarian Church of Vancouver, which is at the corner of 49th Ave and Oak Street. It has a bigger concert space so everyone will get a good seat, plus a parking lot and is conveniently on 2 bus lines for easy transportation access. We are very excited, and we hope to see everyone there. Mark your calendars now!

text: Hey guys, in this tutorial i'll be showing you how to install and setup Eclipse for use with RuneMate. 1. So to start with we'll need to download the latest version of eclipse which can be downloaded here. You'll want the one called 'Eclipse IDE for Java Developers'. If you're running a 32-bit operating system make sure you get the 32-bit version. Spoiler Once you've clicked the download link corresponding to your systems architecture you'll be redirected to a page with a heap of download links. I usually just choose the big green down arrow one but if that's too slow you can try one of the mirrors. The download will be in the form of a zip file so you'll need an extraction tool such as winrar to open it. Eclipse is a portable application (No installation required) so wherever you extract it to will be where you run it from. Spoiler 2. Once you've got eclipse extracted, open the folder and double click the eclipse.exe file. Eclipse will start loading up and will ask you to specify a workspace directory. This is where all of your script bot source and class files will be stored. Select an appropriate path (The default is usually fine) and tick the option to use this workspace as the default. If you don't you'll be asked which workspace you wish to use every time you open eclipse (Workspace can be changed from within the eclipse settings). Spoiler Now that eclipse is open you'll see the welcome window. Close it by clicking the cross in the welcome tab.You should now see the Project Explorer to the left side of the screen. Spoiler 3. Now we need to install the Eclipse Subversive (svn) software. This will allow us to share the project to our RuneMate svn account so that we can submit our bots for use on the bot store. To install this we need to go to this page and click and drag the install button (on the right side) into our eclipse window. Spoiler Once we've done this the Eclipse Marketplace will open and should look something like this. Spoiler Make sure all of the packages are selected and then click the confirm button. You'll then see a terms and conditions window, agree to them and hit finish. Spoiler If you get a popup similar to below just hit yes. Spoiler You'll then see a progress bar. It might take a couple minutes for the software to download and install so just sit back and relax. Spoiler Once that's finished you'll be prompted to restart eclipse, select yes. Spoiler When Eclipse has loaded again you'll probably see the welcome window again, close it the same way you did last time. 4. Now we need to create a project. To do the following in the Project Explorer: Right click -> New -> Other Spoiler You should see a window popup similar to below. Expand the SVN folder and select Project from SVN and then hit next Spoiler 5. You'll now be prompted to install an svn connector as this is the first time you've used the svn plugin. Select the highest version SVN kit available, in this case SVN kit 1.8.7 and then hit finish. Spoiler Another prompt will appear asking you to select the items you wish to install. Make sure everything is ticked and click next twice. You'll see the terms and conditions window again, agree and finish. Shortly after you'll get a security warning asking if you want to install the software, just hit ok. You'll now be prompted to restart eclipse again, select yes and then perform step 4 again. 6. You should see the Checkout from SVN window. We now need to go to the RuneMate developers page and copy our svn project url. Spoiler Paste the url into the URL field of the Checkout from SVN window. Now enter the username displayed on that same page in the Username field and enter your svn password. If you don't know it you can reset it using the Reset SVN Password button on the developers page. Select save authentication, next and then finish. It may take a couple seconds to process. 7. The checkout as window will now be shown, make sure 'Check out as a project configured using the New Project Wizard' option is selected and then hit finish. We'll now see the New Project wizard again (From step 4). This time though, expand Java and select Java Project then next. Enter a project name and make sure the selected JRE is 1.8 or higher and then hit finish. Spoiler If you're asked to configure a master password you can select no, it won't make a difference. Your package explorer should now look something like this (Without the red cross) Spoiler 8. Now we need to add the RuneMate jar as a library reference so that Eclipse doesn't throw errors when you use the RuneMate api, it will also allow Eclipse to auto import packages and suggest methods. To do so we need to do the following to the project in the Package Explorer: Right click -> Build Path -> Add External Archives Spoiler Now navigate to your RuneMate.jar file and select it. And you're now setup to start developing RuneMate bots in Eclipse, I hope this tutorial helped (May add WindowBuilder instructions in the next few days )

Many of you may be noticing that the phrase "final countdown" is now trending. I believe that this is a representation of the Holy Spirit on the move throughout His people as the Lord continues to perform His mighty work in this late hour. Bob and I are far from the only ones who have noticed this trend, and I am sure that we are not the only ones who are feeling the unmistakable heavy impression that time is very short until the world, and life as we know it, is forever altered and "the big reset" is underway.
With that being said, I will pick up where I left off in the last post of this series which focused on the connections between Super Bowl 47, the 2013 NFL Kickoff game, and Barack Obama's Presidential address on September 10th and how all three of these events were connected within the context of a complex time signaling element. If you have not yet read part 3, please do so now before continuing on here as this post will shift focus and begin discussing the possible time frames and events that may lie in our very near future.
In part 2 of this series I discussed the Mercedes commercial featured during the Super Bowl that guaranteed us a thrilling fourth quarter and how that this was referring to more than just the final quarter of the game. The Holy Spirit has been showing many of us that the fourth quarter of 2013, October through December, may very well be the time frame when a very significant event, or events, transpires and forever alters the national and international landscape. As we begin to look at possible time frames and scenarios, I believe it will become rather apparent that the focus on the fourth quarter of this year is genuine.
When attempting to discern what it is "they" were trying to tell us about possible time frames and potential events we must use the signs, symbols, and information "they" provided. The signaling event during the Super Bowl occurred during the third quarter of the game and the 2013 NFL Kickoff game ritual occurred during the third quarter of the year. I believe this is a relevant connection.
Also of particular relevance is the pattern that was displayed of signal-34 minute delay - action begins/resumes. Those responsible for carrying out the rituals of Super Bowl 47 and the 2013 NFL Kickoff game could have delayed the games for any length of time they wished, but they chose the numbers 33 and 34 because it is their calling card. They also could have varied the pattern and done it any way they desired, but they did it this way and it was for a reason.
Some initial reports had the delay during the Super Bowl 47 as 33 minutes and some as 34, and we were told on several occasions by Al Michaels during the 2013 NFL Kickoff game that it was a 33 minute delay. However, the official reports now list the delays of both events as 34 minutes. I am of the opinion that they did this for two reasons. Firstly, the number 33 carries such a strong association. Secondly, I believe the number 34 carries not only a strong supernatural numerical connection to 47 and Horus, but also factors in to the way in which the possible time frame may be constructed.
Taking this into account the numbers 33 and 34 are obvious indicators, but the number 32 must also be considered due to the fact that during the opening game the 32 player countdown was featured so prominently. With these numbers in mind, I will present some possible dates that all fall within the fourth quarter range of October and December. Without any definite revelation insight from the Lord as to exact dates, this is all I can do and invite you to watch along with me.
Beginning with "33" we can start with a 33 day countdown from September 5th, which was the night of the Kickoff game signal. Counting out 33 days from that night would take us to Tuesday, October 8th. If we take Obama's national address signal into consideration and count 33 days from that night we arrive at Sunday, October 13th.
Taking into consideration the fact that there were two delays signaled, if we were to take two sets of 33 days and add them we could get 66 days. Using September 5th as the beginning point a 66 day countdown would take us to Sunday, November 10th. If we use Obama's address as the countdown marker we arrive at Friday, November 15th.
Plugging 34 into the equation and going through the same process we arrive at the dates of Wednesday, October 9th and Monday, October 14th.
If we were to take the two delays and their official accounting of 34 minutes and equate that to two 34 day counts, then that would be 68 days. Once again, using the same process as above it would take us to Tuesday, November 12, 2013 and Sunday, November 17th.
Using a single instance of 32 as a countdown instrument and applying it to the two possible countdown origins of September 5th and September 10th we arrive at the possible dates of Monday, October 7th and Saturday, October 12th.
So far we have the following possible dates, all of which fall in the fourth quarter of 2013.
Counts using 32, 33, and 34 equate to:
Monday, October 7th * 32 days counted from September 5th
Tuesday, October 8th * 33 days counted from September 5th
Wednesday, October 9th * 34 days counted from September 5th
Saturday, October 12th * 32 days counted from September 10th
Sunday, October 13th * 33 days counted from September 10th
Monday, October 14 * 34 days counted from September 10th
Counts using 66(33*2) and 68(34*2) equate to:
Sunday, November 10th * 66 days counted from September 5th
Tuesday, November 12th * 68 days counted from September 5th
Friday, November 15th * 66 days counted from September 10th
Sunday, November 17th * 68 days counted from September 10th
Lord willing, in the next post I will begin to examine how these dates coincide with a multitude of various national exercises ranging from cyber attacks on our banks to the national grid exercise taking place from November 13th through the 15th. When we factor all of these things together it paints a rather ominous picture.
Before wrapping up this post, I would like to present some links and quotes from other saints that have made note of the fact that we are in the final countdown and that something big is on the horizon.
(Please note that just because I link to someone's content that does NOT mean it is a blanket endorsement for that person, their conclusions, or their theological positions. Eat the fish and spit out the bones and as always seek the Lord for what He may have for you in any particular article, movie, mp3, etc.)

An alert from "V" - via Steve Quayle.
What that simply means is this. Russia will not respond to the limited action against Syria so long as Russian assets are not harmed. Hence Putin also has the targeted sites given to him by Barry . Bashar will move his assets/weapons and this will be a simple show. A show for what? A market reaction test to see how high the fear will build and a needed distraction that will allow more assets to be stolen and more draconian legislation to be passed. Look for the UN small arms treaty, as well as various tests and drills around the country as DHS will be working over time. Again take it for what it's worth, World War 3 does not kick off tomorrow but by October all bets are off. I sense any deal brokered by Barry will be reneged and Putin will feel the sting of the American back stab. At that point it was a pleasure to know some of you and it was an honor serving all of you through the internet and radio. The implosion has started but not yet."
Alert from "V" on Steve Quayle's website appearing August 28, 2013
During their last show together on the Hagmann and Hagmann report Tom Horn and Steve Quayle presented some excellent material. They, too, are declaring that we are in the final countdown.
Tom Horn: "There's something BIG, and that's the feeling...we were left with the sense that something really big is up and they're (government intelligence agencies) not about to let us know what it is that the U.S. intelligence agencies are now taking these extraordinary measures to try and cover as much ground as they can and gather as much intel as they can."
Later in the show...
Steve Quayle: "...but what you are talking about that I asked you to take in is critical. The coming war...because this is so important tonight because all truth is parallel we could be at war in the next, and I'm not setting a date, but let's say in the next two weeks beyond anything we know with all the call-ups the positioning, all the worry, all the discernment, all the collective unease, and the mourning that's going on..."
Tom Horn: "Something big is coming, it does involve the war of wars (worlds?) and I believe we are on the precipice of it right now...""
Tom Horn & Steve Quayle on Hagmann & Hagmann Friday: Mens hearts will fail them as the "Final Countdown" begins
There is some very timely subject matter there, and while I recommend giving it a listen, I must offer the same caveat that Bob offered in his post entitled Horn and Quayle on the H & H Report, and the Branding of Survivor Mall, WestgatE Mall and the Suez Canal.
While it should go without saying that I don't endorse everything about the content I link to, a point needs to be made about a conclusion drawn by Tom at the end of that show. Tom describes a standard for what is "good enough," and if you accept that you'll be found with a soiled robe when the Lord comes for His Bride, and disqualified. Whether Tom might supplement that if given the opportunity, I can't say, but based upon what I've seen to date, probably not.
The Lord is making it apparent that He is on the move and His Spirit is working through His people preparing us for what lies ahead as He continues to draw our attention to the fact we are in a "final countdown." In the next post I will begin to examine how these time frames tie in with the various national exercises and possible international engagements such as Syria, Iran, etc.
More to come, Lord willing!

McAvoy Explores Gnome Love
James McAvoy and Emily Blunt will voice star-crossed lovers in "Gnomeo and Juliet" for Miramax. Kate Winslet and Ewan MacGregor were originally attached to the project, as
we first reported
, but it apparently didn't pan out. Described as a "loose and edgy" adaptation of Shakespeare's play, the film depicts McAvoy and Blunt as would be gnome lovers from rival gardens. I'm scared off by the fact that Elton John will contribute several songs. He lost me after the Lion King and ripping off his "Candle in the Wind" song for Lady Di.

Subscribe To How Gotham Season 2 Will Be Different Updates
I've already subscribed
Fox's Gotham introduced us to the home of the city of the man who will be Batman. While we ran across a number of odd characters, Season 1 was mostly dedicated to a fairly traditional urban crime story. Mobsters, corrupt cops, corrupt political officials, and the handful of good people trying to survive it all and fight against it. Season 2 is getting ready for major shift however. The villains are coming.
San Diego Comic-Con had a panel dedicated to Fox dramas and TVLine has the info on the Gotham portion of the show. According to showrunner Bruno Heller Gotham will begin to "decline into chaos" as more people begin to feel power inside them and don't feel obligated to use that power morally. Of course at the top of that food chain will stand The Penguin, who spent Season 1 successfully executing a plan to go from the lieutenant of a lieutenant to the mob boss of Gotham City. According to Robin Lord Taylor, it looks like he may have some challengers to his throne in Season 2 but Penguin is ready for the fight.
To balance the new villains Ben Mckenzie, who plays Jim Gordon, said new heroes will be introduced as well. While he didn't go into detail, we would expect the additional heroes to be of "good cop" variety rather than the masked vigilante type. Though at least one vigilante might be a good idea, Batman needs to get inspiration from somewhere. We know we'll be seeing more of Harvey Dent in Season 2 so he will likely become part of the regular crew of heroes trying to take down all the crazy people running around.
While we know a lot about the villains we will see in Season 2, we've already heard that Clayface and The Mad Hatter as well as Mr. Freeze and Tigress will be making appearances. However, we haven't heard much about any casting for new Gotham PD detectives or other potential heroes, so we'll have to wait and see who will be joining the battle on the side of the good guys. Since we do have Gordon, Dent, Bullock, Montoya, and Dr. Tompkins on board we already have a lot of Batman's non-costumed colleagues on board. Let us know who we're missing and who you'd like to see join Gotham in the comments.
Of course there is one potential "new" hero that we can't ignore in Gotham City. While we don't expect to see a 14-year-old Batman on the streets beating up bad guys, we do expect Bruce Wayne to take a more active role in trying to fix the city. We know he'll begin to create his dual personality next season which will likely allow him to get close to the movers and shakers in Gotham, who are likely all bad guys who need to be taken down. Bruce and Alfred will apparently build a relationship of "mutual respect and understanding" in Season 2 so we figure the duo will be doing whatever they can to help clean up Gotham.
