When Ernest Supplies set out to improve upon classic shaving cream, they looked to another shower workhorse: hair conditioner. After all, why wouldn't a product that is designed to soften your mane be able to do the same for your beard? With its low-lather formula, this balm ensures a closer shave. As the formula preps hair for removal, cooling oils also soothe skin, eliminating razor burn and the need for an aftershave.
I received a small sample of this product in my November 2014 Birchbox. Because of the packaging this is NOT something I would recommend traveling with. I am concerned it would be punctured or leak. The product provided an adequate shave, but nothing unusual.
3Even though I don't have a beard in some sense, I still like to use products that will condition the hair and skin. This is a great product. It doesn't break me out and the scent isn't overpowering. Usually, my skin is super red and burns, but with this product, it eliminates all of that!
5I normally keep my head shaven clean. I let it grow out longer than usual before shaving it this last time. I expected the usual clogged razor and scalp irritation. It was weird at first not having any lather like the normal shave cream. I was pleasantly surprised though when I didn't get neither the clogged razor nor the scalp irritation I was expecting. I was more impressed/shocked by my razor not clogging up though. It was pretty thick. I like this and do plan on ordering more.

Friends, I opened the mailbox this morning and found a hand-written note from a dear old friend. I had to transcribe it and share it with you.
Dear Ali,
I hope this letter finds you well. I just wanted to write because with the holiday season rapidly approaching, I know you and I and many of your friends will be spending a lot of time together. I feel awkward reaching out like this, but I think it's best I voice my concerns now. You see, while I love that you and so many others have discovered my versatility — really, I mean it, I loved those blondies — I'm feeling a little torn about all of the attention I've been receiving in recent years.
OK, I'll just say it: the truth is is that I miss sage. And I miss crisping up its leaves in a pan filled with butternut squash ravioli. And I miss being tossed with ribbons of pappardelle and toasted pine nuts. And I miss bathing with fillets of sole.
There. I said it. I just wanted to remind you of, well, what I once considered my strength. I think you will understand. And I hate to impose, but if you wouldn't mind sharing this with anyone you think might be interested, I would so appreciate it.
Your friend,
Brown Butter
Friends, our pal BB seems so down. What can we do about this? I'm hoping this orecchiette with Brussels sprouts, walnuts and Pecorino might just boost his spirits. It's one of my favorites right now, not only because the Brussels sprout leaves and little ears of pasta share the same shape, but also because it is irresistibly delicious and relatively easy to throw together. Peeling the sprouts is kind of a pain, but I can think of more tedious tasks (naming 20 trucks 20 times a day comes to mind) and the whole process takes no more than 10 minutes.
After the sprouts are separated into leaves, the rest is simple. While the pasta is cooking, the butter can be browned, the walnuts toasted and the cheese grated. During the last minute of the pasta's cooking time, the Brussels sprouts enter the pot, and after the pasta and sprouts are drained, everything is tossed together: pasta, sprouts, brown butter, walnuts and cheese. So easy, so delicious. I think BB will approve.
PS: Brown Butter Blondies are delish. Also: Brown Butter Orzo Risotto.
One note: Sincere apologies to anyone who tried getting on the blog yesterday without luck. Not really sure what was going on, but I've changed my hosting plan and, as a result, those issues should no longer occur, and the site should be running a little faster, too. We shall see.
Orecchiette with Brussels Sprouts Walnuts & Brown Butter
Serves 2 to 3 generously
10 to 12 oz (283 to 340 g) Brussels sprouts (about 9 oz (255g) once trimmed of stems)
8 oz. (227 g) orecchiette (or campanelle or gemelli or whatever you like)
1 tablespoon kosher salt
6 tablespoons (3 oz | 85 g) unsalted butter
1 cup walnuts
a handful of grated Pecorino or Parmigiano (about 1/4 to 1/2 cup)
freshly cracked pepper and salt to taste
1. Cut the stems off of each sprout and start separating the leaves. It helps to cut above the stem a little bit higher than you would normally — you also might have to make another cut after you've started peeling away the leaves. When you reach the heart of the sprout, it will be really hard to peel back the leaves. Stop peeling and set the heart aside. Once all of the sprouts are peeled, thinly slice the hearts. Set sprout leaves and hearts aside.
2. Put a large pot of water on to boil. Add the salt.
3. Meanwhile, in a large sauté pan (large enough to fit the pasta and Brussels sprouts) melt the butter over medium heat. Once the butter begins turning brown and smelling nutty, turn off the heat.
4. Meanwhile, in a small sauté pan over medium heat, toast the walnuts until they become lightly browned and fragrant, about 10 minutes. (Alternatively, toast the walnuts at 350ºF for 8 to 10 minutes — watch closely to prevent burning.) Place the toasted walnuts in a tea towel and rub together to remove papery skin. Transfer walnuts to a sieve and shake again to remove any additional skin. I know this is fussy, but it makes a difference. Set aside.
5. Check the cooking time of the pasta you are using. Set the timer for one minute less than the time recommended for al dente. For example, if your orecchiette cooks in 9 minutes, set the timer for 8. After the 8 minutes, add the Brussels sprouts to the pot. Cook 1 minute more. Reserve a half cup of the cooking liquid and set aside — you might not even need this. Drain pasta/sprouts.
6. Bring the brown butter back up to temperature over medium or medium-high heat; add the pasta/sprouts to the pan; add the walnuts and toss to coat. Sprinkle a handful of the Pecorino over top and toss again. Taste. Add more salt if necessary (if you salt the cooking water generously (with a tablespoon of kosher salt for example), you shouldn't have to add too much more salt) and pepper to taste. If necessary add some of the pasta cooking liquid to the pan — it's nice to have reserved pasta cooking liquid on hand if you make this ahead and need to reheat it.

Cant believe it but 1 of my students actually wanted to use ketchup instead of brake fluid on his bike.
All because his mate said so!

ketchup/brake fluid

Not heard that one before. I remember when all the cool trials kids used to run water instead of brake fluid...

They could use cornflour/water mix instead...

They could use cornflour/water mix instead...
its shear thickening not pressure thickening, so wouldn't have quite the effect your looking for, it thickens as you move it, and as brake fluid isn't realy flowing it would make little or no difference.

A growth-cycle model of Solow-Swan type, I
We construct an endogenous growth-cycle model of the Solow-Swan type. The equilibrium point of the growth-cycle model is the same as the steady state of the Solow-Swan growth model. Unlike in the Solow-Swan growth model, the representative household in the growth-cycle model, however, adaptively estimates his/her average income and determines his/her consumption in proportion to average income. We prove that if the steady state is unstable, any non-equilibrium path converges to a limit cycle. However, even if the steady state is stable, growth cycles can emerge. In fact, we prove that the growth-cycle model generates corridor stability. As a result, we prove that there exists an unstable cyclic path such that any path in the interior of the cyclic path converges to the steady state and any path in the exterior of the cyclic path tends toward a limit cycle (growth cycle). We also prove that a high economic growth rate is not compatible with a stable economy.

Website Load Time
Website load time is an important factor, because Google is taking the site's loading speed into consideration in determining its ranking. Even though this will not have a big impact, it is still something we (webmasters) should really look into. The reason is pretty simple – the majority of visitors are usually in a rush and no one is fond of waiting half a century before the website finally loads its content or fails to load. At the last check on 2014-10-17, website load time was 0.36. The highest load time is 0.56, the lowest load time is 0.35, the average load time is 0.41.

Fiber-optic-bundle-based optical coherence tomography
Optics Letters, Vol. 30, Issue 14, pp. 1803-1805 (2005)
Acrobat PDF (237 KB)
A fiber-optic-bundle-based optical coherence tomography (OCT) probe method is presented. The experimental results demonstrate this multimode optical fiber-bundle-based OCT system can achieve a lateral resolution of 12 µm and an axial resolution of 10 µm with a superluminescent diode source. This novel OCT imaging approach eliminates any moving parts in the probe and has a primary advantage for use in extremely compact and safe OCT endoscopes for imaging internal organs and great potential to be combined with confocal endoscopic microscopy.

Spruce Haven Farm Anaerobic Digester Is Operational The anaerobic digester located at Spruce Haven Farm dairy, owned and operated by Doug Young, began producing biogas in early September. By October 1st the digester had been brought up to an operating temperature of 100 degrees Fahrenheit, enabling the anaerobic digestion of manure from the 3,360 animal herd to create enough biogas to operate a Combined Heat and Power (CHG) system capable of producing 502kW. The system is currently running at approximately 95% capacity, producing 480kW of renewable electricity. The facility was designed and constructed with oversight by Larsen Engineer's staff. The project is funded through a NYSERDA grant program. Pictured below is the inflatable flexible membrane cover which collects the biogas produced in the 1.5 million gallon lined lagoon. To discuss the feasibility of an aerobic digester at your farm or facility please contact Scott Fonte, P.E. of Larsen Engineers at firstname.lastname@example.com.

1. The problem statement, all variables and given/known data In a total time of 2.0 min, a duck on a pond paddles 22 m [36 degrees N of E] and then paddles another 65 m [E 25 degrees S] Determine the duck's i) total distance travelled ii) average speed iii) total displacement iv) average velocity 2. Relevant equations ii) v= delta d/t iii) C = sqrt Cx^2 + Cy^2 iv) still working on it...was focusing on iii) for quite a while 3. The attempt at a solution i) d = 87 m ii) v = .73 m/s iii)Ax = 22 cos 36 = 17.8 Bx = 65 cos 25 = 58.9 Ay = 22 sin 36 = 12.9 By = 65 sin 25 =27.5 Cx = 17.8 + 58.9 = 76.7 Cy = 12.9 + 27.5 = 40.4 C = √(〖Cx〗^2+〖Cy〗^2 ) C = √(5882.89+1632.16) C = 86.7 Therefore, the total displacement is 86.7 m I'm hoping I'm at least on the right track...I'm starting an online physics course with absolutely no background. Thanks for any help!
The first rule of vector math is to Draw a vector diagram. In this case, it is a vector diagram of the two displacements. You seem to have the right idea but you are making an error in adding the displacements. The y component of the second trip is in the opposite direction to the first. In the first trip the duck goes north. In the second, south. You can see that your answer must be wrong because you have the duck's displacement almost equal to the distance - which would have to be almost a straight line. AM
Thank you for your help ...sorry for the delayed response, I'm apparently quite good at avoiding my physics course LOL. I appreciste the feedback. So I ended up with total displacement = 78.1 m after I gave Cy a negative value of -14.6 Thanks again!

STROP REVEALEDOkay, it's the new year. The news of my intention to hang up the ninja mask (or, in plainer words, retire as a moderator) within the next couple of months, is becoming increasingly public. Also, there are rumours that I visited the real AG office last month, and some people are wondering whether I'm actually a doctor, and there's a bunch of other stuff I say about myself too.So it's time to confirm all this stuff!1: Strop is a doctorA while back I (very excitedly) posted some photos of my degrees. Well...Here's a photo of me holding said degrees on graduation day. Behind me is the Old Quadrangle building of the University of Melbourne.2: Strop actually did visit the AG officeNext up is the photo of my visit to the AG office in Irvine, CA. They'd just moved to a new, more spacious suite in the same block so hadn't quite finished moving in yet, but you could say it's fairly representative of the "young IT" company, with an open plan office and casual atmosphere.While I was there Dan attempted to assassinate Cormyn with an RC car. Meanwhile, I had a massive case of the "kid in a candy store" and ended up blinking in the photo:Also I needed a haircut. Most of the devs and admins associated with AG are in this photo (with the unfortunate exception of Carlie, and I think ConArtists isn't there either). See how many of them you can recognise!3: In his free time, Strop breakdancesI'm more of a free-runner and "ninja" kinda person, so I didn't do much in the way of bboy until last year. After I decided to rock up to my club's tournament though, I was inspired to do more with it.Here's a still from said tournament.Guess where I am!Okay that's it from me. Now that I've unmasked myself I guess I'll upload some more stuff in their relevant places later!

I won't use this product on my face at all since it makes me break out, but it's great for when my neck gets really dried out for all my treatments.
Picked up this little magic-worker after reading so many reviews on it and SO glad I did! I have oily skin but I get really flaky skin around my mouth and eyes of a morning after I wake up, so I wanted a good moisturizer that would counteract that. I got For Dry to Extremely Dry and it has worked wonders.
I bought this moisturizer to try on my face. It says for dry to normal skin. I have oily skin but i decided to use it anyway. I didn't break out or anything but bad mistake -__-
I wouldn't recommend it for someone with oily skin because it just makes your skin look more greasy and oilier. However, my body itself usually does get dry so I saved it and now use it for my body. Works really well and keeps me moisturized through out the whole day and gives me soft skin.
It is a cheap and effective.
My mum has very dry skin I am gonna get her the cream ones to try.
Good combination with BP, will keep using it.
DO NOT ALLPY TOO MUCH, otherwise it is too greasy. Good for winter, but use small amount (one soy bean size is good for me).
Australia sells it cheap, NZ price is crazy!
dont use, it might be cheap but it will make your skin break out
I wouldn't buy it again, well I don't even need to there is a bottle of it in the cabinet I never used the rest of..
This moisturizer hydrates skin very well. However, it makes my skin oily after a while, that's why I recommend using one pump and only at night.
But overall, great moisturizer
I was originally using the acne.org moisturizer and switched to Cetaphil about a month ago.
At first, the switch was amazing --- totally rejuvenating and hydrating. I used it for my face and neck (twice a day). My skin was looking near flawless with nearly no blemishes.
However, a few days ago, I started noticing whiteheads on my chin and below my nose (the spot that gets a lot of natural oil buildup.) I decided to shrug it off and continue using but I've come to the conclusion that it is not doing the same job as earlier. Now, my skin feels way too oily and greasy when I apply this moisturizer; I can just feel my pores wanting to break out and I have a couple new pimples on my chin.
Today, I decided to go out and buy two new moisturizers: CeraVe and Clean & Clear Oil Free. I tried both out today (one on each cheek) and they are completely different from Cetaphil (in that they are very light and thin opposed to thick and greasy.) I'm not sure which I will go with but more than likely it'll be CeraVe being that Clean and Clear gave me a burning sensation at first application.
I use this because I have very sensitive skin and can't use fragrance. It's non-greasy and doesn't clog my pores. Just wish it would make my skin look and feel softer.

Looks great! Fits great!
Good chrome, nice system for adding foot pegs.
Got what I needed. They work fine. For what I am using them for and the price.
They look way nice on my bike and are comfy but they do not have any traction on them what so ever. Make sure you have something to put on them to keep your feet on them when you are going down the freeway. Very worth the price!!
great deal and price, they look real good on the bike
I was debating on getting some other pegs but several customers said the pegs became loose. So I ordered these based on one review. Well they are awesome. Heavy metal, shiny chrome, installed easily, and look great on my XJ650. Couldn't be happier. Make riding much more comfortable.
I truly am pleased with my purchase of these pegs they are very comfortable.I can now relax and enjoy more of the ride and not so much of the discomfort of my knees locking up.

The Mongol conquest of the Song dynasty under Kublai Khan (r. 1260–1294) was the final step for the Mongols to rule the whole of China. It is also considered the Mongol Empire's last great military achievement.[1]
Before the Mongol–Jin War escalated, an envoy from Song China arrived at the court of the Mongols, perhaps to negotiate a united offensive against the Jin dynasty, who the Song had previously fought during the Jin–Song Wars. Although Genghis Khan refused, on his death in 1227 he bequeathed a plan to attack the Jin capital by passing through Song territory. Subsequently, a Mongol ambassador was killed by the Song governor in uncertain circumstances.[2] Before receiving any explanation, the Mongols marched through Song territory to enter the Jin's redoubt in Henan. In 1233 the Song dynasty finally became an ally of the Mongols, who agreed to share territories south of the Yellow River with the Song. Song general Meng Gong defeated the Jin general Wu Xian and directed his troops to besiege the city of Caizhou, to which the last emperor of the Jurchen had fled. With the help of the Mongols, the Song armies were finally able to extinguish the Jin dynasty that had occupied northern China for more than a century. A year later, the Song generals fielded their armies to occupy the old capitals of the Song, but they were completely repelled by the Mongol garrisons under Tachir, a descendant of Boorchu, who was a famed companion of Genghis Khan. Thus the Mongol troops, headed by sons of the Ögedei Khan, started their slow but steady invasion of the south. The Song forces resisted fiercely, which resulted in a prolonged set of campaigns; however, the primary obstacles to the prosecution of their campaigns was unfamiliar terrain that was inhospitable to their horses, new diseases, and the need to wage naval battles, a form of warfare completely alien to the masters of the steppe. This combination resulted in one of the most difficult and prolonged wars of the Mongol conquests.[3] The Chinese offered the fiercest resistance of among all the Mongols fought, the Mongols required every single advantage they could gain and "every military artifice known at that time" in order to win.[4]
The Mongol force which invaded southern China was far greater than the force they sent to invade the Middle East in 1256.
First stage (1235–48)[edit]
From 1235 on, the Mongol general Kuoduan Hequ started to attack the region of Sichuan through the Chengdu plain. The occupation of this region had often been an important step for the conquest of the south. The important city of Xiangyang, the gateway to the Yangtze plain, which was defended by the Song general Cao Youwen, capitulated in 1236.[5] In the east, meanwhile, Song generals like Meng Gong and Du Guo withstood the pressure of the Mongol armies under Kouwen Buhua because the main Mongol forces were at that time moving towards Europe. In Sichuan, governor Yu Jie adopted the plan of the brothers Ran Jin and Ran Pu to fortify important locations in mountainous areas, like Diaoyucheng (modern Hechuan/Sichuan). From this point, Yu Jie was able to hold Sichuan for a further ten years. In 1239, General Meng defeated the Mongols and retook Xiangyang, contesting Sichuan against the Mongols for years.[6] The only permanent gain was Chengdu for the Mongols in 1241. In the Huai River area, the Mongol Empire's commanders remained on the defensive, taking few major Song cities, although Töregene and Güyük Khan ordered their generals to attack the Song.[7]
The conflicts between the Mongols and the Song troops took place in the area of Chengdu. When Töregene sent her envoys to negotiate peace, the Song imprisoned them.[8] The Mongols captured Hangzhou and invaded Sichuan in 1242. Their commanders ordered Zhang Rou and Chagaan (Tsagaan) to attack the Song. When they pillaged Song territory, the Song court sent a delegation to negotiate a ceasefire. Chagaan and Zhang Rou returned north after the Mongols accepted the terms.[9]
An account of the Mongol attack on Nanjing was given in a Chinese annal, describing the Chinese defenders use of gunpowder against the Mongols:
"As the Mongols had dug themselves pits under the earth where they were sheltered from missiles, we decided to bind with iron the machines called chen-t'ien-lei [thunder-shaking-the-sky]. . . and lowered them into the places",[10]
where the translation of the term for the device is that of Prof. Partington, who describes it as an iron pot filled with [huo] yao, literally "fire drug", a low-nitrate gunpowder or proto-gunpowder, sometimes lowered on chains, that sent forth "fire… out of every part," with an incendiary effect over many yards that could pierce metal to which it was attached, producing a "noise like thunder" that could be heard for miles, with the result that "the men and the oxhides were all broken into fragments (chieh sui) flying in all directions".[11][12]
Second stage (1251–60)[edit]
The Mongol attacks on Southern Song China intensified with the election of Möngke as Great Khan in 1251. Passing through the Chengdu Plain in Sichuan, the Mongols conquered the Kingdom of Dali in modern Yunnan in 1253. Möngke's brother Kublai and general Uriyangqadai pacified Yunnan and Tibet and invaded the Trần dynasty in Vietnam. The Mongols besieged Ho-chiou and lifted the siege very soon in 1254.
In October 1257 Möngke set out for South China and fixed his camps near the Liu-pan mountains in May. He entered Sichuan in 1258 with two-thirds of the Mongol strength. In 1259 Möngke died of cholera or dysentery during the battle of Diaoyucheng that was defended by Wang Jian. The Chinese general Jia Sidao collaborated with Kublai and took the opportunity of Möngke's death to occupy Sichuan as subject of the Mongols.
The central government of the Southern Song meanwhile was unable to cope with the challenge of the Mongols and new peasant uprisings in the region of modern Fujian led by Yan Mengbiao and Hunan. The court of Emperor Lizong was dominated by consort clans, Yan and Jia, and the eunuchs Dong Songchen and Lu Yunsheng. In 1260 Jia Sidao became chancellor who took control over the new emperor Zhao Qi (posthumous title Song Duzong) and expelled his opponents like Wen Tianxiang and Li Fu. Because the financial revenue of the late Southern Song state was very low, Jia Sidao tried to reform the regulations for the merchandise of lands with his state field law.
Gunpowder weapons like the t'u huo ch'iang were deployed by the Chinese against the Mongol forces, which fired bullets from bamboo tubes.[13]
Prelude, and surrender of Song China (1260–1276)[edit]
This section needs additional citations for verification. (December 2014) |
In 1260, Kublai was elected Great Khan of the Mongols, and he was eventually able to conquer the south, but at great cost.[citation needed] First, from 1260 to 1264, a civil insurrection leading to war, the Toluid Civil War, was fought within the Mongol side, between Kublai Khan and his younger brother, Ariq Böke, who had been left in command of the north and stationed in the Mongol capital, Karakorum.[citation needed] Then, skirmishes of the early 1260s led to a major confrontation in Diaoyu Fortress, Sichuan in 1265. The Mongols eventually defeated the Song land and naval armies and captured more than 100 ships.[14]
Then in 1268, the Mongol advance was halted at the city of Xiangyang, situated on the Han river, and controlling access to the Yangtze river, the gateway to Hangzhou.[15] The walls of Xiangyang were approximately 6 to 7 meters thick, encompassing an area of five kilometers wide.[citation needed] The main entrances in the wall led out to a waterway impossible to ford in the summer, and impassable as a swamp and series of ponds and mud flats in the winter.[citation needed] This city was linked to its twin city, Fencheng, on the opposite riverbank by a pontoon bridge spanning the river Han; the defenders of twin-cities attempted to break the siege but the Mongols under Aju thwarted them each time.[citation needed] The Mongols crushed all reinforcements from the Song, each numbering in the thousands.[16]
After this defeat, Aju asked Kublai for the powerful siege machines of the Ilkhanate. Ismail[disambiguation needed] and Al-aud-Din, from Mosul, Iraq, arrived in South China to construct a new type of counterweight-driven trebuchet that could use explosive shells. The Mosuli engineers built the new siege trebuchets, and smaller mangonels,[17] and traction trebuchets as well.[citation needed] The design of the critical new counterweight trebuchets were taken from those used by Hulagu to batter down the walls of Baghdad in 1258.[citation needed]
Explosive shells had been in use in China for centuries, but the counterweight system of trebuchet (as opposed to the torsion-type) gave greater range and accuracy, and the counterweighting system made it easier to judge the force generated (versus by the torsion from repeated windings).[18] As such, the counterweight trebuchet built by the Persians were, practically speaking, greater in range,[19] and so could assist in destroying the walls at Fancheng with greater safety to the Mongol forces.[citation needed] The Muslim and additional Chinese engineers operated the artillery and siege engines for the Mongol armies.[20] Hence, the Chinese, who were the first to invent the traction trebuchet,[citation needed] now faced Persian-designed counterweight trebuchets on the side of the Mongol army, so by 1273 the Chinese were led to build their own counterweight trebuchets; as an account states, "In 1273 the frontier cities had all fallen. But Muslim trebuchets were constructed with new and ingenious improvements, and different kinds became available, far better than those used before."[21]
During the siege, both the Mongol and Song forces used chen-t'ien-lei (zhen tian lei) types of devices—lit., thunder-shaking-the-sky, or heaven-shaking-thunder devices), a type of incendiary gunpowder weapon of cast iron, filled with gunpowder (see full description and sources in First stage, above). Each delivered theirs via their types of trebuchets, and by other means.[citation needed] As noted, the effects of these on men and natural materials was devastating, the noise destructive and resounding for many miles, and armor made out of iron could be penetrated by the bomb's shell during the explosion.[12] The Mongols also utilized siege crossbows, and the Song used fire arrows and fire lances as well.[citation needed]
Political infighting in the Song also contributed to the fall of Xiangyang and Fancheng, due to the power of the Lu family. Many questioned their allegiance to the Song, and the Emperor barred Jia Sidao himself from the command. Li Tingzhi, an enemy of the Lu family, was appointed commander. Jia permitted the Lu to ignore Li's orders, resulting in a fractious command. Li was then unable to relieve Xiangyang and Fancheng, managing only temporary resupply during several breaks in the siege.[22]
Bayan of the Baarin, the Mongol commander, then sent half of his force up-river to wade to the south bank in order to build a bridge across to take the Yang lo fortress; three thousand Song boats came up the Han river and were repulsed, with fifty boats destroyed and 2,000 dead.[citation needed] In the maritime engagements, the Song forces used paddle ships,[23] and on some ships at least, fire lance, siege crossbows, and incendiary devices were deployed against Mongol forces.[24]
Xiangyang's commander then surrendered to the Mongol commander. The entire force, now including the yielding commander, sailed down the Yangtze, and the forts along the way fell, as this commander, now allied with the Mongols, had also commanded many of the down-river garrisons.[citation needed] In 1270, Kublai ordered the construction of five thousand ships. Three years later, an additional two thousand ships were ordered built; these would carry about 50,000 troops to give battle to the Song. In 1273, Fancheng capitulated, the Mongols putting the entire population to the sword to terrorize the inhabitants of Xiangyang. After the surrender of the city of Xiangyang, several thousand ships were deployed. The Song fleet, despite their deployment as a coastal defense fleet or coast guard more than an operational navy, was more than a match for the Mongols. Under his great general Bayan, Khublai unleashed a riverine attack upon the defended city of Xiangyang on the Han River. The Mongols prevailed, ultimately, but it would take five more years of hard combat to do so.[25]
Kublai had founded the Yuan dynasty in 1271, and by 1273, the Mongols had emerged victorious on the Han River.[citation needed] The Yangtse River was opened for a large fleet that could conquer the Southern Song empire. A year later, the child-prince Zhao Xian was made emperor. Resistance continued, resulting in Bayan's massacre of the inhabitants of Changzhou in 1275 and mass suicide of the defenders at Changsha in January 1276. When the Yuan Mongol-Chinese troops and fleet advanced and one prefecture after the other submitted to the Yuan, Jia Sidao offered his own submission, but the Yuan chancellor Bayan refused. The last contingents of the Song empire were heavily defeated, the old city of Jiankang (Jiangsu) fell, and Jia Sidao was killed. The capital of Song, Lin'an (Hangzhou), was defended by Wen Tianxiang and Zhang Shijie. When Bayan and Dong Wenbing camped outside Lin'an in February 1276, the Song Grand Empress Dowager Xie and Empress Dowager Quan surrendered the underage Emperor Gong of Song along with the imperial seal. Emperor Gong abdicated, but faithful loyalists like Zhang Jue, Wen Tianxiang, Zhang Shijie and Lu Xiufu successively enthroned the emperor's younger brothers Zhao Shi and Zhao Bing. Zhao Shi was enthroned as Emperor Duanzong of Song far from the capital in the region of Fuzhou but he died soon afterwards on the flight southwards into modern Guangdong. Zhao Bing was enthroned as Emperor Huaizong of Song on Lantau Island, Hong Kong. On March 19, 1279 the Mongols defeated the last of the Song forces at the naval Battle of Yamen. After the battle, as a last defiant act against the invaders, Lu Xiufu embraced the eight-year-old emperor and the pair leapt to their deaths from Mount Ya, thus marking the extinction of the Southern Song.[26]
Last stand of the Song loyalists (1276–79)[edit]
Empress Dowager Xie had secretly sent the child emperor's two younger brothers to Fuzhou. The strongholds of the Song loyalists fell one by one: Yangzhou in 1276, Chongqing in 1277 and Hezhou in 1279. The loyalists fought the Mongols in the mountainous Fujian–Guangdong–Jiangxi borderland. In February 1279, Wen Tianxiang, one of the Song loyalists, was captured and executed at the Yuan capital Dadu.
The end of the Mongol-Song war occurred on 19 March 1279, when 1000 Song warships faced a fleet of 300 to 700 Yuan Mongol warships at Yamen. The Yuan fleet was commanded by Zhang Hongfan (1238–1280), a northern Chinese, and Li Heng (1236–1285), a Tangut. Catapults as a weapon system were rejected by Kublai's court, for they feared the Song fleet would break out if they used such weapons. Instead, they developed a plan for a maritime siege, in order to starve the Song into submission.
But at the outset, there was a defect in the Song tactics that would later be exploited by Yuan at the conclusion of the battle. The Song wanted a stronger defensive position, and the Song fleet "roped itself together in a solid mass[,]" in an attempt to create a nautical skirmish line. Results were disastrous for the Song: they could neither attack nor maneuver. Escape was also impossible, for the Song warships lacked any nearby base. On 12 March, a number of Song combatants defected to the Mongol side. On 13 March, a Song squadron attacked some of the Mongols' northern patrol boats. If this action was an attempted breakout, it failed. By 17 March, Li Heng and Zhang Hongfan opted for a decisive battle. Four Mongol fleets moved against the Song: Li Heng attacked from the north and northwest; Zhang would proceed from the southwest; the last two fleets attacked from the south and west. Weather favored the Mongols that morning. Heavy fog and rain obscured the approach of Li Heng's dawn attack. The movement of the tide and the southwestern similarly benefited the movement of the Mongol fleet which, in short order, appeared to the north of the Song. It was an unusual attack in that the Mongol fleet engaged the Song fleet stern first.
Prior to the battle, the Mongols constructed archery platforms for their marines. The position enabled the archers to direct a higher, more concentrated rate of missile fire against the enemy. Fire teams of seven or eight archers manned these platforms, and they proved devastatingly effective as the battle commenced at close quarter.
Li Heng's first attack cut the Song rope that held the Chinese fleet together. Fighting raged in close quarters combat. Before midday, the Song lost three of their ships to the Mongols. By forenoon, Li's ships broke through the Song's outer line, and two other Mongol squadrons destroyed the Song formation in the northwest corner. Around this time, the tide shifted; Li's ships drifted to the opposite direction, the north.
The Song believed that the Mongols were halting the attack and dropped their guard. Zhang Hongfan's fleet, riding the northern current, then attacked the Song ships. Zhang was determined to capture the Song admiral, Zuo Tai. The Yuan flagship was protected by shields to negate the Song missile fire. Later, when Zhang captured the Song flagship, his own vessel was riddled with arrows. Li Heng's fleet also returned to the battle. By late afternoon, the battle was over, and the last of the Song navy surrendered.
The ruling elite were unwilling to submit to Mongol rule, and opted for death by suicide. The Song councilor, who had been tasked with holding the infant child-emperor of the Song in his arms during the battle, also elected to join the Song leaders in death. It is uncertain whether he or others decided that the infant Emperor should die as well. The councilor therefore jumped into the sea, still holding the child in his arms. Tens of thousands of Song officials and women threw themselves into the sea and drowned. The last Song emperor died with his entourage, held in the arms of his councilor. With his death, the final remnants of the Song resistance were eliminated. The victory of this naval campaign marked the completion of Kublai's conquest of China, and the onset of the consolidated Mongol Yuan dynasty.
Members of the Song Imperial Family continued to live in the Yuan dynasty like Emperor Gong of Song, Zhao Mengfu, and Zhao Yong.

Unquestionably in the Chinese the Mongols encountered more stubborn opposition and better defense than any of their other opponents in Europe and Asia had shown. They needed every military artifice known at that time, for they had to fight in terrain that was difficult for their horses, in regions infested with diseases fatal to large numbers of their forces, and in boats to which they were not accustomed.

[They] were used by the Jin in defense of Kaifeng…, by the Song defenders of Xiangyang… and other cities, and in the Mongol invasions of Japan.

Happy with the bench. I think it shows that benching for reps is important. Not that I have any muscle anyways.

I brought this bottle today for the pic, so it was real full. Well this is the first pic I took. If you saw all the rest you'd notice the spilt nail polish circle getting bigger and bigger,lol.

Lol …. but what fun :o))
Lol, yeah sort of,lol

Ha I tried a similar thing some months ago and ended up with polish all over the place!!! I think this is just right – more, and it would be overpowering.
Hi Rosalie, thanks so much. If I ever do it again I'll use a half empty bottle,lol.

May 5, 2014 - Perfect size, perfect color (so my tea or coffee doesn't stain), perfect cause! Love it!
April 22, 2014 - These mugs are beautiful. I bought them to give as gifts. It's tough not to keep them for myself though.

I like to think that everyday brings a new chance for opportunities that make people happy to appear. Always the bright side.
I've got my last year of high school left and I enjoy meeting new people. Though I'm not focused on dating it would be nice to meet someone who's time I could enjoy. As over-used as this is, I am a bit of an old soul. I have grown up with an older brother so I am much more outgoing and adventurous than some. These sound like two conflicting attributes, but I like to think of them as opposites that attract. That being said, I don't enjoy spending my time around those who dont respect responsibility and party all the time, because that's not me at all. I am excited and focused on my future and I'd like to meet someone else so is too.

I have a rescued shi-tzu, who is way bigger than normal. He is awesome and smarter than some people I know. I had a frog named H20 but he died and I can't replace him.
Middle of the Road
Lake Lanier islands and six flags are two of my favorite places to go and enjoy
I am very open in my music tastes, everything from 40's music to European electric pop. I enjoy action movies as well as kids movies because I both enjoy the thrilling action and the happy feelings.
Go to movies, play video games, enjoy the out doors.
Agamemnon was my last book, but I read a wide range, and I read frequently. I enjoy fiction especially fantasy as it widens my imaginations scope

The Political Aspects of S. Augustine's 'city of God'
Delivery of these lectures was one of the last pieces of work that Neville Figgis was allowed to carry through. He prepared them for the press, leaving them in the form of lectures and preserving here and there the impress which the anxiety of war-crisis made upon them. In that form, therefore, they are published now. In place of the final revision which his failing health prevented him fromLectures on the French Revolution
The revenue of France was near twenty millions when Lewis XVI., finding it inadequate, called upon the nation for supply.
