Book (LIAB) |
Page Info
We see Ansom walking away, a somewhat disappointed expression on his face. His cape billows behind him. Over Ansom's shoulder, Ossomer stands with his hands on his hips, and Tramennis stands with his right hand on his hip and his right foot forward. | [edit] |
Ansom: So be it. Ansom: We have nothing further to discuss. Prince Ossomer: You've made a tactical blunder, Ansom. Prince Ossomer: And a basic one. Prince Ossomer: You cannot get your siege engines to Jetstone without taking this hex. And you cannot take this hex. | [edit] |
A close-up of Ansom's face, wearing a grim expression. Over his shoulder, Ossomer and Tramennis have not moved, but we can see that they are smirking. | [edit] |
(There is no text in this panel.) | [edit] |
Ansom, turned halfway so that the wall of the bridge is behind him, looking back over his left shoulder. His expression is confident. | [edit] |
Ansom: We certainly could. Prince Tramennis: Nnnope. | [edit] |
Ansom has returned to where he was standing in the previous page, with his left arm raised, palm outwards towards his brothers. Ossomer and Tramennis have not moved. | [edit] |
Ansom: Assuming you brought maximum stacks of top heavies, we still have the forces to fight through you... Prince Ossomer: This is a capital fight, brother. Ansom: By which you mean? | [edit] |
We look over Ossomer's shoulder at Ansom, who is standing with his hands on his hips, his mouth slightly opened. In the background, we see a sourmander with a rider (presumably Wanda Firebaugh), a Siege Tower, the giraffe Cloth Golem, and several other units. From what we can see of Ossomer's face, he is still smiling. | [edit] |
Prince Ossomer: Father approved deployment of casters to my command. Unlike the last Chief Warlord to make that request of him. | [edit] |
Looking over Ansom's shoulder as he points to the other side of the bridge. Tramennis is grinning at him, and Ossomer is smirking. | [edit] |
Prince Tramennis: Oh! Oh, that zinged him, Ossomer. I saw his hair move. To that hex? | [edit] |
A split panel. On the left, a close-up of Ansom's face in profile, rubbing his chin with his left hand as he speaks. On the right, a close-up of Ossomer's face in profile, smiling as he also speaks. | [edit] |
Prince Ossomer: All but Cubbins, yes. So. With a Dollamancer to heal the Cloth Golems and a Healomancer for the rest... Ansom: Yes... Yes, and a Dittomancer doubling leadership and specials...duplicating surviving units...I see. | [edit] |
Facing Ansom as he walks away again. His head is bowed somewhat, and his expression is disappointed. Behind him, Ossomer and Tramennis have not moved. | [edit] |
Ansom: You're more committed to holding this bridge than I'd realized. | [edit] |
A wide view looking from behind and somewhat to the left of Ossomer and Tramennis, neither of whom has moved. Ansom continues to walk back towards his army, his cape billowing behind him. We can see a pink dwagon and a pink sourmander, three siege towers, the giraffe Cloth Golem, and Ansom's carpet clearly. | [edit] |
Prince Ossomer: You made it easy! Bringing your usual siege-heavy infantry assault? Come now, Ansom. Someday, you must develop some tactical imagination! | [edit] |
Looking at Ansom as he rejoins his forces, his back still turned to the Jetstone side. On the left side of the panel, we see a male unit with gray skin in black armor and helm with finlike protrusions and highlights of blue, yellow, and purple.[1] On the right side, we see Wanda Firebaugh[2] mounted on a pink dwagon. Both are looking at Ansom, and the unit on the left is smiling slightly. | [edit] |
Jack Snipe: Aye, Warlord. | [edit] |
As Ansom turns to mount his carpet, the veil falls, revealing the unit in black armor from the previous panel to be Jack Snipe, and the siege towers and infantry to be large stacks of dwagons and Archons. Wanda is holding the Arkenpliers. Jack is actually wearing a purple suit with a blue shirt, a white straw hat with a purple ribbon around it, and a beige bow-tie. He is carrying a cane or staff with an 8-ball at the top.[3] | [edit] |
(There is no text in this panel.) | [edit] |
In the foreground, Ansom stands beside his carpet, his mouth open as he shouts orders. Behind him, a purple Dwagon and three Decrypted Archons take off. | [edit] |
Mount up! | [edit] |

Your journey begins on Jones, at Gaylord Suites. Or actually, next to Gaylord Suites, where you'll step past some steel gates and walk down a long corridor. As long corridors often do, this one leads to something magical: a tree-laden roof deck that's strategically positioned to block the wind.
"For now it seems to be a cash-only bar. It might change in the future but keep some bills handy."
A great spot to hit up on one of those to-die-for sunny days, dine or drink al fresco on their rooftop terrace among an eclectic crowd of Mission-folk, Marina-peeps, and everyone in between.

On Feb. 10, the Rev. Pat Kelly, pastor of Fredonia Hill Baptist Church in Nacogdoches, ran a video from EndIt.com that put a face on the worldwide epidemic of human trafficking before he started his Sunday morning sermon.
Back in January, Kelly vowed to keep growing his beard until the church met a goal of $5,000 to help raise awareness for human trafficking by donating to a Christian organization called EndIt.com.
He said he chose that charity, "because we will not turn a deaf ear or blind eye to it anymore."
Then, members of the church promised to shave their beards as well if the initial goal of $5,000 was passed, and the total got to $10,000 or more. Anything over the initial $5,000 goal will be used to build a water well in Haiti.
Mission accomplished. Earlier this week, the members of Fredonia Hill Baptist Church's donations to the Bye-bye Beard fund had surpassed the $10,000 mark.
Thursday afternoon, Kelly used electric clippers to shave his beard off. By then, it had reached Duck Dynasty or even Biblical proportions.
As he shaved it off, Kelly, a fan of the Duck Dynasty reality show, said, "The much-anticipated Duck Dynasty goes no longer."
Once Kelly was clean-shaven, he rubbed his face and joked, "I think I lost about 10 pounds, and I see a face I haven't seen in many, many years."
As much as Kelly loved the beard, he knows the money he raised will be going to a good cause. It was worth it to shave it all off.
How did his church feel about it?
"I just like him clean shaven," Joann Reeves said. "I don't care for men with beards."
After Reeves expressed her displeasure in the beard, Kelly good-naturedly named it after her, calling it the "Jo-jo." Kelly hugged her tight after he shaved the beard off Thursday.
When asked what his wife might think of his new look, Kelly said, "I think she will be a little shocked; she hasn't seen a face like this since we got married."
"I'm going to mourn the beard; I'm going to mourn it," April Kelly, Kelly's wife, said. "But … his little whiskers would get up in my nose, and that's not very romantic."
There's not much more Kelly could have given his wife on Valentine's Day.
"Happy Valentine's Day," Kelly said.

Materials required: None
Time required: about 2 minutes per year
Savings: $30-$60 per year (depending on your furnace, your location, and gas prices)
GHG reduction: about 0.15 to 0.30 tons per year
I live in a moderate climate (Vancouver, BC, Canada) and only require artificial heat about 7 months of the year (from mid October to mid May). For the other 5 months of the year I turn my furnace off completely, including the pilot flame. There are occasionally some cold days during that period but we usually just wear extra clothing and leave the furnace off. Throughout much of the US the heating season is shorter and potential savings are even higher.
To turn off your furnace completely, look for a valve in the gas line to the furnace. Simply turn the valve handle so it is angled 90 degrees to the pipe. If you like, you can check your furnace to ensure the pilot flame goes out.
To turn your furnace back on, turn the valve handle parallel to the pipe and re-light your pilot flame following the furnace manufacturer's instructions (if you don't have the manual for your furnace you can probably look it up online, or just wing it... they're mostly the same). As a reader has noted, there is no danger if someone turns the gas valve back on but forgets relight the pilot flame. There is a thermocouple that prevents gas flow unless a flame is present. You typically have to hold a button down to get the gas to flow when re-lighting the pilot flame, and keep holding it down until the thermocouple warms up.
That's all there is to it. For more ways you can reduce your impact and save money doing it, see my website, www.IWillTry.org.

Blue flag root (Iris versicolor)
Latin Name: Iris versicolorCommon Names: Blue flag root
Blue flag root comes from a wildflower (actually a species of iris) known to the scientific community as iris versicolor. This attractive flowering herb is native to the sedge meadows, marshlands and riverbanks of North America, and is an official symbol of the Canadian province of Quebec.
Iris versicolor is indeed a natural herb in the technical sense: it has no woody stem, grows above ground and dies back at the end of each growing season. However, the useful part is the blue flag root.
It is thought to have stimulating effects on the lymphatic system, helping the body to rid itself of toxins, and may be useful for its laxative and diuretic properties as well.
As one of the top bulk herb suppliers in the U.S., Starwest Botanicals is pleased to offer quality bulk herbs that promote sustainable agriculture and environmental practices, cut waste by eliminating unnecessary packaging and save our customers money. We would be remiss however if we failed to point out that simply because a product is an organic herb or root does not mean it shouldn't be used with caution. Even all-natural herbs can have side effects and interactions; dried herbs like the blue flag root taken from the iris versicolor may produce allergic reaction in some individuals; it should be avoided by pregnant or lactating women as well as children.
Star West Botanicals recommends that any organic, natural herbal product be used under the guidance of a licensed naturopath or herbalist. We will gladly answer questions you may have regarding our product offerings.

Police in Anne Arundel charge man with fuel theft
Saturday - 9/7/2013, 2:17pm  ET
PASADENA, Md. - Anne Arundel County police say they've arrested a man and charged him with stealing hundreds of gallons of diesel fuel from area businesses.
Police say 49-year-old Robert D. Murphy of Pasadena has been linked to the theft of 660 gallons of diesel in Millersville and Severna Park. They are also investigating his possible connection to similar thefts. Police say an anonymous tip directed police to Murphy and that they observed him taking fuel on two occasions in August.
Police said Friday at a news conference that there have been 10,000 gallons of diesel fuel stolen in the county in 2013.
Murphy was charged Aug. 31 with theft, destruction of property, trespassing and multiple counts of burglary. He also faces gun charges.
Murphy does not have a listed telephone number.

Lady brains: Dumbing down technology for women
March 15, 2013 3:53 pm | by Kasey Panetta, Associate Editor | Blogs | CommentsManufacturers are constantly trying to find ways to appeal specifically to women. The justification is often that their product—be it pens, cars, or toys—sells with men, but they're trying to attract more women. It's a logical thought process: figure out what a demographic wants, market those specific traits, sell more product.

Drone pilots don't need a "participation trophy"

Case in point: The new Secretary of Defense, Chuck Hagel, has halted production of the new Distinguished Warfare Medal — awarded to drone operators — in response to veterans' complaints that the "participation trophy" ranks above combat medals like the Purple Heart and Bronze Star.

The Microsoft vision for 2018
March 7, 2013 3:08 pm | by Kasey Panetta, Associate Editor | Blogs | CommentsA few weeks ago, we took a look at Walter Cronkite's 1967 prediction of a media room in the year 2001 and, setting aside the 1960s aesthetics, he wasn't too far off. Humans are always trying to figure out what the future of technology will be. It's fun to imagine what would happen if Google Glass became the new iPhone or 3D printing allowed for on-site organ creation. These things could change the world as we know it.

Agita over 3D printed guns is absurd

But conflating "hobbyists" with "guns" causes fits of hysteria. And it's entirely unwarranted. The handwringing over the imagined capability to print 3D guns and the associated moral implications is absolutely absurd and betrays a basic misunderstanding of firearms and physics.

Why 3D-printable guns are a terrible idea
March 1, 2013 9:45 am | by Kasey Panetta, Associate Editor | Blogs | CommentsMention the words "3D printed guns" and you've got an instant, increasingly heated debate on your hands. When you consider there were 16 mass shootings—defined as a shooting with multiple, random victims—in 2012 with at least 88 people dead including children, it's definitely a topic worth discussing. My take? No one needs a 3D printed gun or the ability to create one.

Young hotshots put Scotland in focus
2 March 2010
TWO young photographers gave Culture Minister Fiona Hyslop a special sneak preview of their winning images that will soon be seen in more than 40 countries around Europe.
Aksel Hampson (7) of St Peter's RC School and Christian Deeming (11) of Robert Gordon's College Junior School, both in Aberdeen, showed their winning images to the Minister at Edinburgh Castle today (Tuesday).
Having won the PhotoArch competition open to primary schools across Scotland, their pictures will now be part of the International Heritage Photographic Experience exhibition.
The Minister said: "Aksel and Christian's photographs deserve their place in this Europe-wide exhibition and the overall quality of entries is a testament to the hard work of pupils and teachers across the country.
"As well as the photographs going on display in so many countries, the full shortlist will be displayed in venues across Scotland and I would encourage everyone to see them, either on display or at the PhotoArch website."
PhotoArch is a heritage photography competition for primary school aged children in Scotland, run by the Scottish Civic Trust and supported by Historic Scotland. It is run as part of Doors Open Days, which takes place around the country in September.
The entries were judged by Ray Entwistle, Chairman of Trustees at the Scottish Civic Trust; Ruth Parsons, Chief Executive of Historic Scotland and Scotsman Picture Editor Andy O'Brien.
Christian said: "I took the photo while I was on holiday. We had a new camera so I was keen to try it out. I got my mum to lift me up onto a table so I could take the view and my mum said the photo looked good!
"I still love taking photos, and my favourite thing to take photos of is views - mountains, beaches, any kind of view really."
As well as showing off their prize-winning work, Christian and Aksel started the day with a tour of Edinburgh Castle and lunch with their families. The Minister then presented them each with a digital camera and a year's family membership to Historic Scotland. Both winning schools will also receive a digital camera.
The Scottish entries will go on display at venues around Scotland which will be announced in the coming weeks. They can also be viewed at www.photoarch.org.uk along with details of how to get involved in this year's competition.
The Minister added: "This is a great competition which allows us to see how our heritage appeals to young people and the amazing talent in our schools. I would like to thank the Scottish Civic Trust for organising PhotoArch and I hope Aksel, Christian and all the other photographers commended by the judges will inspire even more children to take part this year."
Judges quotes
Ray Entwistle, Chairman of the Trustees at the Scottish Civic Trust; said: "PhotoArch is a great project that gets children thinking about the buildings and heritage around them in a creative and exciting way. With every photograph entered available online, the results are a real source of pride amongst the pupils, their schools and families."
Ruth Parsons, Chief Executive of Historic Scotland, said: "As the most recent addition to the judging panel, I have to say I was so impressed by the high quality of the images. I am incredibly proud that Aksel and Christian's pictures will be representing Scotland and would like to congratulate them and their schools on their great success."
Andy O'Brien, Picture Editor of the Scotsman, said: "It was great to see so many interpretations of the brief. As a national competition, it was particularly interesting to see so many different aspects of Scotland's heritage, showing such a diversity of places and landscapes."

A great side by side of two very similar products: Topeak and Lezyne pump. And..........Lezyne wins.
Smart light good for those who want a commuting torch powerful enough for occasional on and off-road night riding.

Every week, we'll be compiling a round-up of news that's caught our eye over the preceding seven days but hasn't been covered on BikeRadar. From the latest product news to details of routes and events, we'll be bringing you short snippets of information in one handy article.
Lezyne Flow Bottle Cage - £7.99..... A good-value plastic cage that is a tenacious bottle holder
There was only one thing missing when we tested the Lezyne Super Drive 450 Lumen LED light last year, a helmet mount kit.
On its own it's not really bright enough to be bar mounted but on the helmet, it's the perfect partner to a more powerful main beam.
At the London Bike Show last week UK Lezyne distributor Upgrade Bikes had the first pre-production sample flown in from Lezyne's HQ, and we got Rory Hitchens to tell us all about it.
The mount is made of a stamped and machined aluminum base and compression ring with a Composite Matrix spherical pivot cradle that holds the LED light. A long Velcro strap attaches the mount to the helmet and a rubber pad on the underside of the mount provides grip. The spherical pivot allows the user to adjust the position of the light in all directions.
The mount is compatible with all Lezyne LED lights and will retail for £16.99 and available from
We tested the Super Drive last year, here's reminder of how we got on:
Packing 450 Lumens, this is the brightest on offer, and with a price tag of £99.99, it's immediately clear you're getting a decent whack of illumination for little money (it is significantly cheaper, for example, than the Exposure Lights Joystick, which only manages 325 Lumens ).
Lezyne's first entry into lights is a well priced, nicely designed and focused light that offers a surprisingly powerful beam. When the helmet mount is available it will make a useful second light to accompany a more powerful bar mounted light for the serious night riding enthusiasts, while for everyone else it's the perfect way to get into night riding.
Green Park Bike Station does a lovely overview of how to tune up a bike and perform basic maintenance tasks using a number of Lezyne tools.
Once again, BikeRumor.com has exposed the newest and greatest features among Lezyne's product line. He highlighted the ABS Flip Chuck and Slip Chuck and demonstrates how well they work with Lezyne's Alloy Dirt Floor Drive.....unreal.
San Luis Obispo, CA – Lezyne LED users will be happy to hear the Lezyne LED helmet mount will be available next month. Production of the long awaited mount began this month and the first round of mounts have already shipped to Lezyne distributors worldwide. Available to the public early February. The helmet mount is made of a stamped and machined aluminum base and compression ring with a Composite Matrix spherical pivot cradle that holds the LED light. A long Velcro strap attaches the mount to the helmet and a rubber pad on the underside of the mount provides grip. The spherical pivot allows the user to adjust the position of the light in all directions.
The mount is compatible with all Lezyne LED lights and will retail for $19.99. Look for these in your local shop next month!
The production team for the show wanted to bring what we called "the red carpet effect" to London's second ARTCRANK show. Thus this rope barrier was designed and constructed with specially-sourced pink inner tubes. The branding for ARTCRANK, Look Mum No Hands! and Lezyne were all highlighted in the installation.
The design allowed for the bikes to remain functional during the event—something of which many of the show attendees took full advantage.
