|Hunt a god. Save your soul.
| ~ From the crowdfunding campaign
|Spoiler warning: Significant plot details about Pillars of Eternity, part I follow.
| Eothas has returned. The god of light and rebirth was thought dead, but he now inhabits the stone titan that sat buried under your keep, Caed Nua, for millennia. Ripping his way out of the ground, he destroyed your stronghold and left you at the brink of death. To save your soul, you must track down the wayward god and demand answers - answers which could throw mortals and the gods themselves into chaos.
Your hunt takes you to the Deadfire Archipelago. Located even farther east than the colonies of the Eastern Reach, Deadfire comprises hundreds of islands spanning thousands of miles - ranging from lush tropics to barren deserts. Many of these lands have never been charted, while others are inhabited by rich native cultures and a new wave of colonial settlers.

Curtains especially the blackout type can bring a lot of benefits not only to your home but to your health as well. As a covering for windows, curtains can give you protection from the harsh effects of ultraviolet rays and draft during winter months.
Patients who are under natural home remedies can feel the positive effects of curtains in so many ways. Take for instance, bedridden patients who cannot stand alone and take some fresh air outside, can enjoy the breeze, even if the windows are covered with translucent sheer curtains.
Patients who are treated with chemotherapy are easily exposed to contaminants and pollutants, should be isolated from people with contagious diseases as they are vulnerable to infection. Their windows should be covered with sheer or lace curtains so they can still get fresh air and Vitamin D in the morning without really exposed to germs and bacteria.
Cure a fever at home is less expensive if you know the basic home remedy, especially for kids who easily get sick. Let them drink a lot of water and fruit juices to remove the heat from their body. Don't let them sleep all day long if they have a high fever since the high temperature can cause blindness.
Always monitor their temperature hourly and give them paracetamol if their fever reaches above the normal range between 36.5 to 37.5 degrees centigrade or Fahrenheit scale, between 97.7 to 99.5 degrees. Make sure that the patient's room is sanitized by having a daily floor mopping. Change the bedding if they are soaked with urine and mucus.
Give them sponge bath every day and allow them to have sun exposure at least one hour early in the morning. Don't forget to shop for curtains to make their room an ideal place to stay while recuperating from their sickness. There are many types of curtains available online, just take your time to browse them and get some discounts.

Victor Ortiz
April 17, 2011 by staff
Victor Ortiz, Maybe, just maybe, Victor Ortiz has finally lived through its worst time in the ring when he left in the sixth assault of a fight with Mark Maida in 2009.
After his version of "No m? The media and fans alike vilified S," Ortiz. Even other fighters spoke ill of heart failure Ortiz.
But if others gave to him, Ortiz gave up himself. He won his next four fights against opponents carefully selected and then tied with disappointing Lamont Peterson in December.
However, in its motion to welterweight, Ortiz went a long way to erase his reputation resigned. On Saturday night that required a 147-pound title in a sensational fight, and Andre Berto handed his first loss in the swing Arena MGM Grand in Foxwoods Resort Casino.
It was a clear fight of the year candidate appears direct action and the boys both being knocked down twice.
Berto's heart had never been questioned and will not change after lowering the deck in the first round and again in the sixth.
Ortiz stayed mentally strong, even after being shot down in the second round and in the wild-card round six, which should receive full consideration strong year.
"It was an incredible fight," said Lou DiBella, Berto promoter. "My uncle was the lead box and set up for Victor. For Victor, redemption is a beautiful thing."
It was back and forth the rest of the way the crowd took turns singing for each match – and boos Floyd Mayweather Jr. when he was shown on the big screen from the front row – but in the end prevailed Ortiz, 115 to 110, 114-112 and 114-111 in a bout that should produce a final rematch.
"He answered all the questions you may have been his heart. He answered in a single night," said Richard Schaefer of Golden Boy, the promoter of Ortiz.
DiBella also free, although it uses more colorful language.
"That was the kind of fight we needed. Props to Ortiz," said DiBella. "He fought a great fight f ——. Ortiz won, but what a fight. You want to question his balls? There is no doubt about his balls. F — that. I was [in] second round. However, he showed great balls and killed each other there.
"My guy loses, they lose in such a great fight. I'm proud of my boy. He hoped both of them to go down, I thought my uncle was going to win."
Ortiz, however, downplayed the redemption angle, refuse to buy into it.
"Absolutely not," he said when asked about being pursued by the Maiden fight. "Maida was never in my class. He was never on my level. I never gave him respect, especially because he never gave me the rematch."
Maida defeated Erik Morales last week in a barnburner. Maybe we will see a rematch between them if you want to gain weight Maidana, but there will be many of them asked for a rematch with the first Berto.
"Bert did not have a good night, no excuses," said DiBella. "Ortiz beat him, that's all. It was a great war. If that's not a rematch, no struggle should be a rematch. That could be three fights."
"Yes, I want a rematch," said Berto.
If there were a rematch, would not be required, as Berto had no rematch clause, according to DiBella.
The fight, which matched the former prospect of the year for ESPN.com, was wild from the start as Berto, 27, of Winter Haven, Florida, hit the canvas in the first round, but was ruled a slip by referee Michael Ortega. It seemed as if Ortiz stepped on the foot. However, moments later, Ortiz hit a solid right hook and a hook for a wave of Berto fall with about 50 seconds left in the round.
Berto is matched in the second round when he fell Ortiz with a right hand against forcing a surprised Ortiz touching his glove to the canvas. Ortiz (02/02/1929, 22 KOs), Berto hurt again in the third round with a nasty uppercut.
Berto (27-1, 21 KOs), who said he hurt his hand in the second round, spent long periods in the middle rounds laying on the ropes looking for breath and trying to kill time while watching the clock the large video screen in the sand. But Ortiz was aggressive and continued to go after him and forced him to hit back at the tremendous fight.
The sixth round will be remembered for the two runs an impressive scene. Berto Ortiz hit with an uppercut and dropped hard with his right hand and looked on his way to winning a round key. However, just before the end, Ortiz connected to the left and struck down Berto.
"That was a hell of a round. I would vote for him as the year round," Ortiz said.
They fought hand-to-toe in the seventh assault, but Berto Ortiz was hit behind the head. Ortega warned Ortiz finally the kick in the ninth assault and took a point for the 10th assault.
Victor Ortiz long climb homelessness and abuse as a child growing up in fear and loneliness in Garden City, Kansas, ended last night with one more fight, but this time had the faster hands and his heart was thicker than assaulting the man.
Ortiz had the floor twice and twice champion of the WBC welterweight Andre Berto sent the same landing site on his way to winning a unanimous decision in the only way he would have expected – in a brutal battle in which he was assaulted both as the assailant.
Judges Glenn Feldman and Julie Lederman scored the fight 114 to 11 while Clark Sammartino had 115-110 for the new champion. The Herald had previously unbeaten Berto just hold on to its title, 113-112.
The clear conclusion that emerges from this struggle is that it needs to be played again, because no kid is going to be in line to fight either Manny Pacquiao or Floyd Mayweather Jr. time any time soon, so why Why not do what they used to do when boxing was king: a war again because that is what sport is all about.
"These guys are going to kill each other every time they fight,"said Lou DiBella, promoter of Berto." If ever there was a fight that deserves a rematch, that's all."
Ortiz (02/02/1929, 20 KOs) began with a bang, striking Berto (27-1, 21 KOs) with a short right hand that backed him and sent him to the floor with three more rights that included a short boom with more than one minute in the first round. Berto rose on wobbly legs but managed to maintain their way to safety, while Ortiz continued his media.
Berto came back in Round 2, however, landing on his face against a perfect right to Ortiz's knees buckled and he staggered back, his glove touching the canvas of a fall.
The two traded vicious right in the center of the ring early in the third round and before Berto Ortiz staggered back and pinned him against the ropes. For now the two boys were spent, and although willing to do more harm to others were not capable of it.
Ortiz controlled most of the fourth round, but Berto landed several rights by beating and kept waving Ortiz against the ropes while choking much of their attack.
"I realized that it was vulnerable inside,"Ortiz said." My plan was to bottle up their shots and overwhelm him."
I had to that point, but Berto began to assert itself in Round 6, the distance control with his jab until he landed a right sizzling against the chin that sent Ortiz hit the ground.
"That was a beauty of a right hand,"Ortiz said." That was my fault."
But it was Berto's doing – and continued to jump on Ortiz and sending him in full retreat. Berto pinned him against the ropes and I was bombarded with both hands until Ortiz suddenly unleashed against the left of the blue he sent Berto on the floor.
Ortiz's work rate began to decrease significantly in Round 8 unless you included the work of his head, continually crashed Berto's chin and chest. The referee Michael Ortega warned him once, but there could be 100 times. Ortiz Ortega warned for rabbit punching in the next round, and finally that point deducted in Round 10. Berto landed top hits for much of the rest of the round, but nailed Ortiz later with a forehand that hit back hard now champion.
"I could not keep it out as I wanted,"Berto said." I could not get my punches off."
He certainly did not do enough in the final two rounds to keep Ortiz to take enough of it to work also have its title. Both Berto has the opportunity to recover is to Ortiz, a young abused child whose greatest moment in life came to abuse another person.

2017 Press Release
Fifth Annual Cleveland Kurentovanje Spans
Four Days of Slovenian Mardi Gras Festivities!
With dinners, museum exhibits, parties, a carnival parade, and more
there is something for everyone in this week of cultural Mardi Gras fun!
Cleveland, OH—Cleveland Kurentovanje (koo-rahn-toh-VAHN-yay), a Slovenian-infused Mardi Gras festival, is carnival event that has been celebrated in Slovenia for the past 50 years, connecting culture, arts, and people from all over Europe. The central figure of the carnival, the Kurent, is believed to chase away winter and usher in spring with its supernatural powers. Since it's conception in 2013, Cleveland Kurentovanje has been held in the historical Slovenian immigrant neighborhood of St. Clair-Superior and has seen exponential growth with thousands in attendance each year.
This year, Cleveland Kurentovanje has expanded to span four days of cultural and celebratory events:
- Monday, February 20th: Cleveland Kurentovanje has partnered with Dinner in the Dark and the CLE Dinner Club to present a multi-course dinner with Slovenian wines at the Slovenian National Home.
- Tuesday, February 21st: The Slovenian Museum and Archives will open an exhibit on the many historical carnival masks of Slovenia.
- Friday, February 24th: The "Kurent Jump" will kick off the weekend festivities where the Kurents will come out and start their mission of scaring away winter at the Goldhorn Brewery while revelers enjoy food and beer.
- Saturday, February 6th: The Cleveland Kurentovanje parade and festival will take place with many musical and cultural performances, authentic food and drink, ice carving demonstrations, kids activities and handmade crafts.
Details of these events are as follows:

The Slovenian Museum and Archives (6407 St. Clair Ave., Cleveland) will open an exhibit on the historical masks of Slovenian Mardi Gras. For centuries, masks have been used throughout Slovenia in the celebration of Mardi Gras -- the Kurent is the most well known Slovenian mask here in Cleveland, but in fact, there are several others which are all highly unique and intriguing.

SMA provides an educational, cultural and literary resource for families that includes archives, library and museum.

The Kurent Jump on Friday, February 24, 2017 will kick off the Cleveland Kurentovanje weekend at Goldhorn Brewery (1361 East 55th, Cleveland).
Kurent Jump is traditionally the first time that the Kurents appear in public, with their bells loudly ringing as they dance around a bonfire, initiating the Kurents' mission of chasing winter to make way for spring.

Apple has a ton of cash on hand. In fact, its latest financial results revealed that the tech company has a whopping $76.2 billion of the cold hard stuff sitting wherever that much money is stored. As we previously wrote, that means that if Apple wanted to, it could give $247 to each man, woman and child in the US. Now as members of the US House and the US Senate debate on whether or not to raise the country's debt ceiling in order to avoid a default, the US government has revealed it now has less cash on hand than Apple , neowin report.
According to The Atlantic, the US Treasury has announced that as of Thursday it has a cash balance of just $73.768 billion. While the article does admit the two numbers can't really be directly compared, it does show just how much money Apple does have to do, well, pretty much anything it wants. Indeed, even in the face of economic armageddon, Apple's stock continues to go up. Earlier this week Apple's stock reached and exceeded $400 a share. Its current stock price as of today is around $392.

Winner of the Whitbread (Costa) Children's Book Award
"Brilliant and inspirational. The plot was light and perfect."
–Whitbread Award Judging Panel
Winner: Silver Smarties Book Prize
"While bunking off on a geography field-trip, Tom and Geoff have found Aquila (it means 'eagle' in Latin) a vehicle that has lain hidden for centuries. It turns out to be a fantastic flying machine that can travel incredible distances, take them wherever they wish and even make itself invisible." Andrew Norriss

Perfect for Reluctant Readers as well as keen readers.
It began when Geoff disappeared.
The last words he said were, 'Where do you want to go then?' And then Tom was about to reply that he couldn't really think of anywhere worth going when, without warning, with barely even a sound, the entire wedge of earth and grass on which Geoff had been sitting came away from the side of the hill and slid with astonishing speed down the side of the quarry in front of them.
Tom watched in astonishment. Geoff had his rucksack on his lap, a can of drink poised in one hand, and there was scarcely time for the look of surprise to register on his face before the earth hit the bottom of the quarry. There was a rumble like passing thunder….
And he disappeared.

Examples of Teaching Resources to be found at The Teaching Library
In Chapter One, the author switches between two different situations (the boys in the cave and the teachers back at school). Discuss why he has chosen to do this. Can you think of other situations when this might make a story exciting for the reader?
Find out about the different planets in our solar system. Which ones might be capable of supporting life? What do living things need to be able to survive?
Discuss what is meant by the term 'phobia'. Which characters in the story suffer from phobias? Do any of the children, their friends or family members have phobias? How can we help to overcome them?
There are many more ideas like these for all aspects of the curriculum at The Teaching Library
Books for Keeps: Jenny Nimmo – 'I wish I'd written Aquila'
My son, Ianto, is dyslexic. When he was ten he read very slowly, but given a book that engaged his interest he would persevere and win through. He begged me to write a story about a space-ship. All my attempts failed. I wish I'd written Aquila. more
Aquila is without a doubt one of the best children's books I've ever read (I have 3 children, 2 boys), especially for boys. I've given it to several friends. Not only does it explore what I think must be every boy's dream (an invisible flying machine and the heady freedom it brings) but there's a hilarious subtext written just for parents. That part explores the cranky British headmistress, the nervous parents and the other incredulous characters. If you have a young boy, you can't go wrong with this book. Read it aloud for a great time with your son. Westernwoman
Entertainingly written, prize-winning Aquila is an exciting adventure. On a boring school trip, Tom and Geoff discover an ancient flying machine. Determined to find out more about it but also desperate to keep their find a secret, the boys return to the spot and, having mastered how to fly the thing, are soon off on incredible travels in a ship with strange powers including the ability to make them invisible. Along the way, they even have to learn some Latin for purposes of communication. Soundly based in a convincing everyday setting, Aquila is also a tightly plotted and well-imagined adventure.Julia Eccleshare
'The blurb doesn"t do this book justice! It is a wonderful book for kids and adults alike – full of humour and interesting problems dealt with in imaginative ways. The characters are quite endearing and in some ways you are sad to get to the end because of all the fun you get to have with them – you just don"t want it to stop. Definitely on my favourites list!

Since her first day in office, Ayanna has been unwavering and unapologetic in her advocacy on behalf of girls and women. She has been fighting to dismantle barriers to their development and advancement, and to address those issues that disproportionately and adversely impact them - issues often ignored in city halls and state houses across the nation.
Her first official action as a City Councilor was to create and chair the Committee on Healthy Women, Families and Communities. It was the first time in the Council's history a full committee was focused on issues such as intimate partner and sexual violence, trafficking and exploitation, teen pregnancy, and sexual health education in Boston's high schools.
In perhaps her most prominent policy victory, Ayanna spearheaded passage of the Boston Public Schools first-ever sex education and condom availability policy. Ayanna built a broad and diverse coalition that spent three years successfully pushing school officials to adopt a comprehensive policy that ensures students receive age and medically appropriate instruction that is culturally competent, LGBTQ-sensitive and focused on building healthy relationships. Their advocacy paid off, and in 2013, Boston unveiled a health and wellness policy that requires sex education and condom availability.
In addition to her work on sex education, Ayanna has:
- Led efforts to update the Boston Public Schools' policy on expectant and parenting teens to ensure a pathway to graduation and the strongest possible support for the parent(s) and child;
- Partnered with her colleagues in government, including former Attorney General Martha Coakley and the Boston Police Department to change the approach to combating human trafficking by focusing law enforcement efforts on those who prey and profit from exploiting girls and women;
- Convened hearings on sexual assault and worked alongside advocates to push local colleges and universities to reform their policies and provide victims with more support services;
- Established the annual "Jump into Peace" double-dutch event to foster peace, forge sisterhood bonds, build community and promote fitness for girls across the city.
Ayanna has also shared her experience as a survivor of childhood sexual abuse and sexual assault as a college student. She knows personally the lifelong trauma associated with sexual violence. She established and convenes an annual Raise Your Voice Day of Empowerment for Sexual Assault Survivors and their Allies that brings residents, police, and community organizations together for a day of empowerment and education to support healing and to create a zero tolerance culture when it comes to rape; and

Here are three steps develop killer story ideas:
1) Read more
If you want to be a better writer, you need to be reading the news. You need to know what's going on in issues that you're interested in and who the primary players are.
A few good places to start:
- The Baltimore Sun, City Paper, Baltimore Brew
- WYPR's Maryland Morning (available as a podcast)
- WEAA's Marc Steiner Show (available as a podcast)
- WYPR's Midday (available as a podcast)
- WYPR's The Signal (available as a podcast)
- The Sun's Roughly Speaking with Dan Rodricks (available as a podcast)
And if you think this is a lot to keep up with…
Then check out all the news sources that Towson grad and NY Times reporter Brian Stelter reads everyday.
2) Do the legwork
Is your idea really a story? You only find out by doing the legwork.
Here's a tip: do the legwork during the idea stage, rather than the drafting stage. If you save it for the week of your rough draft, you'll waste half the week waiting for call backs and will lose the precious time you need to be creative.
So, visit the site and strike up a few conversations. Is there a story here? Who are the main sources? What is their contact info, and when is the best time to contact them? Is there good photo/multimedia potential here? (Remember: people DOING stuff!) If you know this is a story you definitely want to do, you may even want to go ahead and set up your first interview.
3) Develop a strong pitch
Three things to remember about a story pitch:
- It is two or three short sentences that explain why your story is news, who the main characters are, and why this story has drama, conflict, meaning or interest.
- You should have the main legwork done. In other words, you've visited the site, you've landed contact info, you've scoped out image/multimedia ideas, and you may even have an interview set up.
- You've started gathering information on the topic and are able to answer any questions the editor asks.

Fontana, CA (October 30, 2000): Jimmy Hensley, driver of the ...
Fontana, CA (October 30, 2000): Jimmy Hensley, driver of the #16 eLink Team Rensi Chevrolet, finished the 2000 NASCAR Craftsman Truck season 12th in points after a 10th place finish in the season finale at California Speedway. This year was Team Rensi's first run at the Series and finishing 12th out of 110 is quite an accomplishment for all involved. Jimmy wraps up the 2000 NCTS season with 1 top-five and 7 top-ten's at Team Rensi Motorsports. Career earnings for Jimmy consists of 2 wins, 4 poles, 26 top-5's and 63 top-10's with 128 career starts.
Thirty-nine trucks lined up to qualify for the Motorola 200 after a slight rain delay on Friday. Jimmy qualified the #16 eLink Chevy 24th for the 100-lap event. Meanwhile, Kurt Busch captured his fourth pole of his rookie season with a track record time of 40.589 and speed of 177.388. Later, Busch seized his 4th victory of the 2000 season at California Speedway while his teammate Greg Biffle won the 2000 NCTS Championship Standings.
The green flag dropped and Jimmy started to move the #16 eLink Chevy through the field picking up 6 positions by lap 10. Approaching halfway Jimmy conversed with Crew Chief Troy Selberg that he was tight from the center off while numerous drivers were starting to come down pit road for their scheduled pit stops. Jimmy was running in the top-five now and Selberg had not instructed him to pit. Selberg was waiting patiently for something to happen and fortunately it did on lap 43. The yellow flag waived for fluid on the 2-mile D-shaped track from the #41Dodge. The caution was beneficial to Team Rensi because it put those who previously pitted under the green flag one lap down. Only 10 drivers remained on the lead lap. After the second round of pit stops near lap 80, Hensley came into the pits in 9th for left side tires, a track bar adjustment and fuel. Team Rensi put him back on track in 9th position and thereafter he drove under the checkered flag 10th.
"We are happy to have a top-10 finish," stated Jimmy. "The #16 eLink Chevy seemed to be better in practice yesterday afternoon than it did today. We are fortunate the caution came out when it did or we may have been in a little bit of trouble because those guys behind me were moving in fast."
The time of race was 1 hour 23 minutes and 11 seconds. The margin of victory for Kurt Busch (#99 Exide Ford) over Andy Houston (#60 CAT Rental Stores Chevrolet) was 1.277 seconds. There were three cautions for 11 laps and 6 lead changes among 6 drivers (Kurt Busch lap 1, Andy Houston 2-35, Greg Biffle 36-42, Marty Houston 43-44, Joe Ruttman 45-51, Bryan Reffner 52-81, Busch 82-100).
Daytona International Speedway will kick off the year 2001 for the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series on February 16. The #16 eLink Chevrolet will be back in action with driver Randy Tolsma, who finished 8th overall in the 2000 NCTS Points Standings with 1 win, 6 top-5's, 15 top-10's driving the #25 truck. Tune into ESPN or MRN for live coverage of this spectacular event. For more information on upcoming NCTS events, review the new schedule below or visit www.nascar.com. Portland International Raceway, Evergreen Speedway, Watkins Glen International and Michigan International Speedway have been removed from the schedule while Darlington Raceway, Kansas Speedway, South Boston Speedway and Las Vegas Motor Speedway have been added.

text: August 31, 2016 LUCY GARLAND a.k.a @lucygarland The meteoric rise of Rupaul's Drag Race has captured the imaginations of young and old and inspired a multitude of new talents to explore the glam, ferocious and empowering world of drag. Twenty-year old art student and YouTube sensation, Lucy Garland is an example of the outlet for creativity and self-expression that drag provides. For Lucy drag is her art form and a way of manifesting the various personalities she had within her, a mere brush of foundation, lipstick and eye-shadow away. Would you say that drag is your form of art? Yes! It has definitely taken over my art practice I started drag makeup towards the end of high school. Before that drag had never been on my radar, but once I found it I very quickly realised it was a perfect mix of everything I loved in art: Colour, shape, movement, attitude, design and even drawing. Using my face as my canvas is exciting, and it will always be there! Do you like being the model of your own practice? Yes I do! Although being in art school, it can often be mistaken as very narcissistic! But for me, that's what drag is. You can transform into a hybrid version of whoever you want, and what is the point in doing that if you can't feel a little bit of admiration for yourself! How did you discover drag? When I was 18 I saw a preview for an episode of Rupauls Drag Race, and I was so confused! And from then, it's completely taken over my life! Obsessed would be an understatement. What does drag mean to you? Drag to me means complete creative freedom! And a lot of fun! Rupaul always says everyone should try drag at least once in their life, and I couldn't agree more! The feeling of being able to completely transform yourself is pretty cool! How do you feel when you have your full game-face on? You honestly feel like a completely different person! When you're totally unrecognisable to yourself it's pretty weird. I also think my videos are a cool way of documenting that change, because you can see when I start acting totally different without realising! Do you have a drag alter-ego? If so, what's their name? Not one specific alter ego. Every time I transform into a different character it changes. I haven't fully formed a specific drag persona as of yet! But she's coming! It is stated that traditional drag culture is men who dress in exaggerated female attire, although Lucy is an example of the openness of this sub-culture and creativity behind it. It is a form of self-exploration, expression and appreciation. Share this:FacebookTumblrTwitterEmail
