Here's one thing that would be minor for you, but major for people with low vision or near blindness. I administer a Pagelines DMS site that is nationally read, and the author is a well known disability rights activist. He is also blind, in the sense that if he puts his iPad up really close to his face with pinch-zoom, he can use the web (and does). However, he and many of his users are unhappy with the trend in responsive design that disables user-scalability on devices because of the erroneous assumption that if a site is well-designed, it shouldn't need to be zoomed. That assumption is only correct if you are assuming your users aren't almost blind, or low vision.
I really wish you'd just put a check box somewhere that would allow the responsive theme to enable user-scalable=YES ! It would really help a whole community of forgotten and overlooked web users, and it wouldn't take your developers a ton of time at all.

Judge to hear port appointment motions
CORPUS CHRISTI - The mayor, port chairman and a port commissioner asked a judge to dismiss a legal push by Port Commissioner Kenneth Berry to force them to answer Berry's questions under oath.
Berry filed a petition in County Court-at-Law No. 4 Judge James Klager's court Dec. 14, seeking the right to question Port Commissioner Mike Carrell, Port Chairman Ruben Bonilla and Mayor Henry Garrett under oath. Berry also asked Klager to make them produce e-mails and any other written communication from March 1 to Dec. 14 regarding Carrell's reappointment and swearing-in as a port commissioner.
Berry has taken issue with Carrell's March reappointment to a third three-year port commission term and his June swearing-in at Bonilla's law office. The City Council reappointed Carrell before the election of five new members to the nine-member council. Berry also has questioned why Carrell's swearing-in didn't wait until the first port meeting in January 2008. County Judge Loyd Neal officiated at the ceremony, and Bonilla and Garrett served as witnesses.
According to a response filed Dec. 20 by attorney Tony Canales, the men say that Berry does not have legal standing to question them, that he is second-guessing the legislative decisions of the Corpus Christi City Council that appointed Carrell and that Berry has failed to identify any benefit that outweighs the burden and expense of subjecting the men to depositions.
They ask that Berry pay attorney fees.
"It is a fictitious pleading politically designed to embarrass and harass (Bonilla, Carrell and Garrett) as well as disrupt the Port of Corpus Christi's business affairs," according to the men's motion for sanction and dismissal.
Bonilla and Carrell declined to comment Wednesday. Berry, Canales and Garrett were not available for comment.
Berry's attorney Rene Rodriguez said Wednesday he and Berry just want to ask questions to seek the truth.
"It sounds to me like if there was any doubt that they are trying to hide something, this kind of puts major emphasis on that suspicion," Rodriguez said.
Klager will hear the dismissal motion at 1:30 p.m. Jan. 15. If he does not dismiss the case, the men are scheduled to be back in Klager's courtroom the following day at the same time to review Berry's petition for depositions and discovery.

Conservative radio talk show host Rush Limbaugh has suggested that same-sex marriage might lead the way to people marrying their furniture and says he has an eye on marrying his favorite sofa.
Limbaugh was speaking to a fellow same-sex marriage opponent during a March 22 broadcast when he made the bizarre comments.
Limbaugh asked his caller, 'What do you say to people who say - "you know what … you're old fashioned, you're stuck in the past. We can never go back to it, it wasn't what it was. It's all fuddy-duddy, and you're going to have to modernize or society is going to leave you behind"?'
Limbaugh them summed up the progressives' view of marriage as 'Its all based in love - everybody loves each other and so what ever happens is fine.'
'I love my sofa and I sit on it every night. And it loves me back … If I could marry my sofa I might think about it. I would. And maybe in a few years it could be possible? You never know.'
The caller responded, 'I love mine too although I haven't seen it in a few months because of the tax season.'
In January this year Limbaugh, who has been divorced three times and had Elton John perform at his most recent 2010 wedding, claimed that progressives would move to 'normalize' pedophilia after succeeding with same-sex marriage.

In 'Modern Families' mother and father are no longer necessary
'Modern Families: Parents and Children in New Family Forms', a new book by Professor Susan Golombok from Cambridge University, has recently received a great deal of media publicity in the UK. It brings together 35 years of research on parenting and child development in 'new family forms' including lesbian mother families, gay father families, families headed by single mothers by choice and families created by assisted reproductive technologies such as in vitro fertilisation (IVF), egg donation, sperm donation, embryo donation and surrogacy.
The Independent summarised its findings succinctly : 'Her findings undermine centuries-held assumptions that the traditional pairing of a man and woman represents the gold standard for bringing up children.'
Golombok's blog on the research challenges 'the supremacy of the traditional family', on the basis that the quality of family relationships is more influential for children than the number, gender, sexual orientation, or biological relatedness of their parents.…

After same-sex marriage, then what?
March 29 marked the first anniversary of the legal same-sex marriage in England and Wales. Look around, say the twitterati – no plagues of locusts and frogs have blighted the land; no fire and brimstone have rained down upon Westminster; no earthquake has swallowed up Sir Elton. All is well.
Well, actually not.
In an article in The Conversation, an academic at the University of Kent, Dr Mike Thomas, reported on how happy gay couples in the UK, the United States and Canada feel after tying the knot. He found that most of them welcomed the benefits that legal recognition of their relationship gave them.
But this was not matched by social recognition. Even though the majesty of the law shone upon them, relatives often shunned them and snubbed them.
For many couples, the wedding or civil partnership ceremony was a more bittersweet occasion, bringing…

Who will apologise to the 'Motherless Generation'?
UPDATE: This article was submitted just hours before a television advertisement opposing same-sex marriage (below) was to be broadcast across Australia on the Channel 9 and WIN network. At the very last moment, Channel 9 cancelled the advertisement in all major cities, although it still ran on WIN. No explanation has been given by Channel 9. Those looking for evidence that legalized same-sex marriage will have a chilling effect on public debate in Australia need look no further.

Why we love Miscontraceptions, the film
Having produced several videos about natural family planning (NFP) and fertility awareness methods (FAM), I know how challenging it can be to come up with original angles, fresh dialogues, authentic couple conversations and disagreements, and narratives that can captivate the target audience. That's exactly what Miscontraceptions, Cassie Moriarty's first documentary, accomplishes.
Miscontraceptions is bringing fertility awareness education to the millennial generation (which is who needs it right?). It is fresh, personal, engaging and fun. It tackles misconceptions head-on, brings in various perspectives in an eloquent and charming way, keeps the suspense going, and all the while educates and convinces.
Here are four of the things we especially liked about it:
It starts with the depiction of a real and likely situation: Cassie is complaining about the Pill's side effects. Her boyfriend, Kyle, is…

British childcare worker case tests freedom of expression
Are people free to express their views on homosexuality at their workplace? That is one of the key questions to be answered in the era of legal bans on sexual discrimination and legal green lights for same-sex marriage. Employer, court and tribunal decisions seem to be trending negative.
We have discussed several American examples on this blog, but a case in the UK Employment Tribunal has to factor in European Union laws, rights and a recent declaration from the Council of Europe that acknowledges discrimination against Christians in the UK.
Nursery school worker Sarah Mbuyi was sacked 14 months ago after a friendly chat with a lesbian colleague took a turn for the worse. She happened to say "Praise God" when the other woman said she had recovered from an accident.
Ms A (my designation -- she has name suppression) asked whether Mbuyi was a "born again" type of Christian. In…

A gay dispute over same-sex parenting
Stefano Gabbana and Domenico Dolce Photo: Telegraph/Getty Images
The British press was buzzing over the weekend with news of a spat between high profile gay men over same-sex parenting. On one side were Italian fashion designers Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana, on the other, Sir Elton John, legally married to David Furnish, with whom he parents, with the aid of a nanny, two children acquired with the help of a surrogate mother.
In an interview with Italy's Panorama magazine, Dolce and Gabbana, who were a couple for 23 years before breaking up in 2005, said things that gay activists tell us only "hate-filled anti-gay bigots" even think. But they are not anti-gay, obviously, so they have to be pro-gay traditional family bigots. Or something.
According to the Telegraph this is what they said:
"We oppose gay adoptions. The only family is the traditional one.…

What you need to know about marriage and the US Supreme Court
Does the Constitution require the government to recognize same-sex marriages? That's the question the judges of the US Supreme Court will address this term in hearing arguments relating to several same-sex marriage cases from the states.
"It's not whether government recognized same-sex marriage is a good or a bad idea, it's whether it's required by the Constitution," says marriage expert Ryan T Anderson in a talk given at The Franciscan University of Steubenville in Ohio last month.
The Constitution is in fact silent on what the definition of marriage is, Anderson noted.

Marriage equality? What about equality for kids?
The 37th Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras last Saturday was one of the best-publicised events in Sydney's social calendar. About 10,000 people participated, with 150 floats chugging through the gay district. An estimated 200,000 watched the spectacle, which one disillusioned gay journalist described as "a sweaty orgy of glitter-coated body parts".
Three local TV channels broadcast live coverage of the sexually-explicit activities, which have become so much a part of Sydney life that they hardly provoke hostile comments any more.
But this year there was a protest.
Channel 7 and Channel 9, two commercial stations, and SBS, a government-funded station, agreed to broadcast a 40-second advertisement from the Australian Marriage Forum which criticised same-sex marriage during their coverage. (The YouTube version has gone viral and has been viewed about 200,000 times.)
The commercial stations lived up to their agreement, but SBS buckled under pressure and cancelled the…

The advance of the "throuple"
New York Post / Caters News Agency
Three Thai men have advertised their "marriage" on the internet and appeared in Thai media, claiming the distinction of being, possibly, the first gay men to have a three-way wedding. Joke, 29, Bell, 21, and Art, 26, had their ceremony on Valentine's Day in Uthai Thani Province. At Breitbart, Thomas D. Williams notes:
The threesome did not undergo a state ceremony, since Thai law does not recognize same-sex marriages or polygamy, but the trio claims that their union is sanctioned by Buddhist law. Buddhism is notoriously short on rules and does not forbid polygamy, though Buddhists are counseled to limit themselves to one wife. Buddhism has no official teaching regarding homosexual practice, other than prohibiting it for celibate monks.
Art and Joke formed a couple, and later were joined by…

Alabama Supreme Court halts same-sex marriages, citing duty to the state's law
Alabama Supreme Court
The justices of Alabama's Supreme Court made a dramatic stand for marriage this week by defying federal court decisions supporting gay marriage in the state. At the same time they delivered a broadside at arguments used by the gay marriage movement and federal courts to overturn state marriage laws.
The decision came after a month of marriage chaos in the state that began with an Alabama district court decision. Judge Callie Granade ruled that the state's refusal to license and recognise same sex marriages is unconstitutional and ordered Attorney General Luther Strange to stop enforcing the law.
Strange appealed for a stay of the order to a federal district court, which instead argued why it should go ahead, and then to the US Supreme Court, which also allowed the lower court order to proceed. Some counties began issuing the licences,…

Do we want to motivate people to create wealth or not? It's the unspoken question, the elephant in the room, when President Obama attempts to whip up the populace with stories of "billionaires paying lower tax rates than their secretaries" and other class-warfare demagoguery.
Mitt Romney recently said his effective tax rate is probably close to 15%, because most of his income comes from long term capital gains. The admission hasn't helped his campaign much, to be kind. Warren Buffett has famously said similar things, and has become the President's biggest gift in his drive towards wealth redistribution.
Nearly since the beginning of the income tax, the government has treated long term capital gains differently than "ordinary income." In 2003 the long term capital gains rate was cut to 15%. Why are we surprised to see that people like Romney and Buffett have matched their behavior to the incentives? Surely even President Obama understands the concept of incentives. Under certain conditions, section 2011 of his Small Business Jobs Act of 2010 establishes a particularly favorable long term capital gains rate: 0%.
Presumably what everyone's attempting to foster here are wealth creation and capital formation. From wealth comes the ability to invest, which creates jobs and, if created via free market capitalism — as opposed to crony-capitalism — advances society. The opposite of wealth of course is poverty. We see endless government reporting and programs attempting to alleviate the latter, but little understanding of the need to create the former. If we want less poverty, we need to create more wealth.
So what a great incentive we all have: create wealth over the long term, and pay lower tax rates!
And indeed, this is exactly what Messrs. Romney and Buffett have done. And in creating wealth for themselves, they've created wealth for vast numbers of other people as well as jobs and opportunities for countless more. They've "given at the office", so to speak — so why do Obama and his minions beat up on them to "give" again and again to the tax man? Stranger still, why does Buffett believe his money would be put to better use by government than by his own management?
Obama's beef with the above situation is that not everybody is equal in their ability to create wealth. Yet this is no more an injustice than my permanent inability to dunk a basketball. Do we need to punish Shaquille O'Neal, LeBron James or Kobe Bryant because I can't jump three feet into the air? While we cheer for O'Neal, James and Byrant on the court, can't we similarly cheer for the entrepreneurs in the business world who create the jobs that everyone talks about wanting?
In the end it all goes back to Obama's core belief that government itself can (and should) right the O'Neal vs. Zarras injustice by creating the opportunities for me that The Shaq somehow took away. Notice, however, that if the tax rate "inequality" between Warren and his secretary is too high for Obama, he's not proposing that we reduce the secretary's rate to that of Warren's, and then match government's spending to the resulting revenue. No, Obama wants Buffett to pay more in taxes and he's going to figure out a way to give that extra money to the secretary through additional government services, programs and transfer payments.
Note that no additional wealth is being created here. Every dollar that is to somehow benefit the secretary must be raised from Buffett, Romney, and others like them (the nefarious "one percent"), and then somehow appropriated to the secretary's benefit. Keynesians always point to the visible benefit to the secretary. In stark contrast, followers of Bastiat always "see the unseen" in the additional wealth creation that doesn't take place.
To really feel good about themselves, Obama and his followers have to assume that the government is going to do something of greater benefit to society than the creator of the wealth would do instead. There's one small problem though: it doesn't stand up to scrutiny.
Imagine the government proposes collecting an additional one million dollars in taxes from some rich person. What could the rich person do with that one million dollars instead? They could:
- Spend it. Whether it's spent on luxury goods or candy and gum, it keeps people employed making the stuff.
- Bank it. The bank doesn't just hold onto the money. They loan most of it out for people to buy cars, houses, start businesses and the like. They'll even loan it out to customers with poor credit ratings if Congress leans on them long enough, but that's another story.
- Donate it. Countless organizations such as hospitals, churches, museums and community centers rely on donations to perform their missions, and society benefits correspondingly.
- Invest it. Of the four possibilities, this is where the initial sum of money is transformed into something worth more by someone else — that is, where value is added and wealth is created. Often enough the investments take the form of starting new companies or financing the expansion of existing companies, both of which create more jobs and ultimately put other individuals onto the same decision tree. If the investor succeeds, they'll circle back to these same four alternatives. Likewise, anywhere along the way, the investor stands to lose some or all of the money. Somehow that fact is often overlooked, and the difference between the investors who can consistently grow wealth over time versus those who can't is both incredibly instructive and woefully under-appreciated.
Which of the four rich man's activities above is harmful? Furthermore, in which of the above does government claim to have a better track record when compared to the private sector? I'd suggest that the answer to both questions is: none of the above.

Versalis outlines transformation plan, mulls import of US gas
12:36 PM MDT | May 7, 2013 | —Natasha Alperowicz
Versalis (Milan), the chemicals business of ENI (Rome), has outlined a major transformation program that aims to shift the company's portfolio from domination by commodities toward differentiated and green chemicals, internationalize the business, and make it profitable by 2017–18, delivering €300 million ($392.4 million) in profit by the end of that period. The company is also looking to double capacity for elastomers and increase production of butadiene to feed the elastomers operation through three separate projects: conventional steam...

Meet the AGCO Biomass Solutions Team!
In an attempt to harness the potential of the growing biomass industry, AGCO launched its first marketing group specific to this area of agriculture. The biomass marketing group is led by its marketing manager, Glenn Farris, and his business equipment and development specialist, Ken Wagenbach.
Ken leads biomass harvesting equipment design improvements and helps partners set up, maintain and operate equipment for optimum productivity, efficiency and reliability.
Q&A with Ken:
What are some of the advantages of biomass energy production?
Biomass energy is renewable and environmentally sustainable; it reduces our dependence on fossil fuels and our carbon footprint at the same time. In biomass energy production, the agriculture sector has a way to reduce production cost while increasing yields and revenues.
What's the most interesting thing you've learned about biomass since joining the AGCO Biomass Solutions team?
Biomass hits at all the core competencies of AGCO products. Properly managing crops/land and soil/water, be it purpose grown or crop residue, and renewable energy political policies have equal impact on the economy of the producer.
What is some good advice for a farmer who is interested in incorporating biomass into his or her operation?
Regardless of one's current opinion on government policies on renewable fuels, meeting the world demand for food and fiber in 2020 and beyond will require higher yields. With higher yields and the genetics needed to get there, crop residue in the future will require very heavy tillage, new equipment design and/or removal of it entirely. As farmers/producers, we WILL need the cellulosic outlet that biomass provides.
Have a question for Ken? Email him your question here: email@example.com.

Scottish Distillery is Going Green with Biomass Boiler
Biomass solutions are making news in Scotland as the Balmenach Distillery in Speyside receives funding from the UK Green Investment Bank (GIB). The £5M in funding from the GIB is part of a larger project to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and cut fuel costs from distilleries in the Scottish Highlands. The Balmenach Distillery in Speyside will use the £1M of funds allocated to their improvements to replace the distillery's current oil-fired boiler with a biomass boiler. Two other distilleries, Tomatin Distillery near Inverness and Aberfeldy Distillery in Perthshire, have already benefited from the £5M in funding announced last month from the GIB.
Whisky is one of Scotland's best-known manufactured products. The Scotch Whisky Association is striving to reduce energy costs as part of its goals for going green.The Balmenach Distillery is the producer of Caorunn Gin, known as a super-premium small batch Scottish Gin infused with handpicked botanicals inspired by the Celtic tradition. As one of the oldest distilleries in Speyside, the Balmenach Distillery can trace back its roots to 1824. While closing its doors in 1993, the Inver Distillers Group — owned by ThaiBev, a leading Asian drinks business — bought the distillery in 1998 to reopen it for business.
The installation of the new biomass boiler at the Balmenach Distillery will reduce energy costs to a third of current energy costs as well as reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 5,000 tons a year. The reduction in greenhouse gas emissions at the Balmenach distillery is the equivalent of taking over 2,200 cars off the road. The new biomass boiler will allow for cost-effective renewable energy and will produce steam necessary for the whisky production process.
The installment of biomass boiler systems at the Tomatin Distillery and Aberfeldy Distillery has already seen an 80% reduction in greenhouse emissions and fuel costs.
Rob Cormie, group operations director of the GIB, said, "…Projects like this provide a sustainable supply of renewable energy; save distilleries money and reduce their greenhouse gas emissions. With limited capital investment, distilleries can save money from day one while also helping to meet the industry's ambitious green targets."

Glenn Farris Joins Panel Discussion at the Department of Energy's Biomass 2014 Conference
On July 29 and 30, 2014, the U.S. Department of Energy's Bioenergy Technologies Office (BETO) hosted its seventh annual conference — Biomass 2014: Growing the Future Bioeconomy. As in past years, Biomass 2014 brought together top government officials and members of Congress — with industry leaders and experts from across the bioenergy supply chain — to continue the ongoing dialogue about the critical challenges and key opportunities for the industry.
AGCO Biomass Solutions Marketing Manager Glenn Farris sat on a panel discussing "Advances in Bioenergy Feedstocks — From Field to Fuel." This session focused on the critical importance of feedstocks, their impact of the bioenergy supply chain, and the challenges facing OEM's such as AGCO in this growing market. Joining Mr. Farris on the esteemed panel was J. Richard Hess, Director of Energy Systems & Technology Division at Idaho National Lab, and Allen Julian, Chief Business Officer at MBI. The panel was moderated by Alison Goss Eng, Acting Program Manager of Feedstock Supply and Logistics at BETO.

Biomass Upstarts
These four crops are generating additional revenue for farmers. AGCO brands are helping make that happen.
What's not to love about switchgrass? The perennial develops a strong root system that holds highly erodible land in place. Plus, those farmers who've already planted switchgrass know about its long-lasting stands—at least 10 years—and that it makes great wildlife habitat. Now there is better news: more biofuel markets in the future.
Corn Stover
Since ample supplies of stover are a given, using corn stover for biofuel seems like the perfect plan. For 2013, corn acres in the U.S. were estimated at 97 million and Canadian acres at 3.6 million, with 2.5 million of those in Ontario. There isn't much of a learning curve either. If you can grow corn, you automatically know how to grow stover.
Miscanthus, a perennial, is another up-and-comer for the biomass market. However, says Iowa State University Professor Emily Heaton, "I spend a lot of time managing grower expectations about the crop. If you want to plant a half-acre or an acre to play with, that's fine. But let's [watch what happens] with the corn stover market first."
Sweet Sorgham
Sweet sorghum is tailor made for biofuel production. "It is easier to make ethanol out of it than [with] corn," says University of Missouri extension agronomist Gene Stevens. "It is already in sugar form. Just add yeast to start the fermentation." And as an annual, producers do not have to make a long-term commitment.

- It's All About the Kitchen! Managing job stress is an important aspect of farmer health and productivity. Here we make the business case for operator comfort and discuss recent equipment advancements, including cab and front axle suspension, ballasting techniques and guidance systems. Wednesday, 2:00 p.m.
- Turning Trash into Treasure. There are dollars to be made with the trash your combine leaves behind. In this session, we'll discuss the emerging biomass market – what it is, how you can profit and how to get started. Tuesday, 1:00 p.m.
- Right Place. Right Product. Right Time. Accurate product placement is critical to the successful growth of a crop. This session will not only discuss the various product delivery options available but a number of other application- specific technologies that help deliver higher yields. Wednesday 1:00 p.m.

Front wood door painting
My front exterior door is made of wood. It is time for a new coat of paint, I would like to leave the door on, the door is white, and I want to stay with white. Any tips and what paint should I buy... I.E semi gloss, satin, exterior for a front door. Thanks in advance.
Perhaps a light scuff sanding, wipe down to remove dust and any chalk, let dry and apply a coat of your favorite white paint. I like a nice, hard finish for doors........a semi or high gloss works well. Sherwin Williams makes an all-surface enamel or you could use SuperPaint Semi-Gloss.
Wood doors need to be sealed on all sides.
If not the rails will expand and contract enough to crack the center panels.
Once the paint sets up you need to rap with the side of your hand on the panels to break the paint bond, or once agin it can crack the panels.
The panels need to be able to float.
|All times are GMT -5. The time now is 06:04 PM.

Pivot Pivots from 'Millennial' Programming With 'Fortitude' (Video)
Pivot, the self-described "millennial" network that hosts Joseph Gordon-Levitt vanity projects and reruns of Veronica Mars, has released the trailer for their first scripted drama, Fortitude. Starring Stanley Tucci as a detective investigating a small town Arctic murder in a plot you've heard so many times before it's basically its own Netflix category, Fortitude premieres in January 2015 and looks potentially watchable if you like mysteries dour and chilly. It's also, unsurprisingly, got a lot of Nordic elements. We thought we told you guys to cut it out with that stuff after Those Who Kill?Read More

It's in book 5, Bill is actually Peter so he has to make the past the same so he hacks the shackleton website thingy and adds lukes and his mums name in it which is why. Kinda hard to explain…
When will the book be available in Dubai, UAE (in the middle east)?
UAE, Dubai release date? Please love the books! Your such a great author!
Will doomsday be out in all over Australia on the 1st June? I loved then first 5 and am reading them again now they're so great! Do you have any tips for writing books, I'm only 14
Thanks! :)
Do you plan on writing another series after the Phoenix Files!
I can't wait for doomsday!!!!!!
Would you be able to tell me what genre they are or would that be giving to much away!
I think I should probably stop asking questions :P
That sounds great! Thank you, I look forward to reading them when they're published ;)
You know Chris, after the last book of the Phoenix Files(doomsday) can you like make more Phoenix files books, since I `m a young adult reader I want to find out like if Calvin and Noah Shackleton want to get revenge on Peter, Luke and Jordan…
Thanks for answering this question.
I already have the book before release date because I know the author through a few connections.
Hey Chris
just wondering if there was any way of ordering doomsday online??
thanks Sophie
thanks :)
OMG! love google and u chris. just pre-orded the book domsday on google play, can read tomorow!!!
Hi Chris,
Ive read all the phoenix files (and loved them!!!!) i hardly ever read but once i started couldnt stop so i read all the books in 2 weeks (i read all the hunger games in like 2 yrs) but then realised that then last one wasnt out so i had a look at your blog and you kept saying june 1, is it out yet? and if so where can i get it from (im in adelaide)!
oh my gosh thank you so much for replying (i thought you wouldnt!!!) ive been waiting for like 2 months! thank you for replying youre the best author EVER and im hooked on your books! PLEASE keep writing awesome stories! THANK YOU cant wait to find out what happens :)
Just finished Doomsday in slightly over 3 hours i'm not going to spoil the ending but i loved it. IMO it was the best one in the series i particuarlly liked what bill did but im not going to spoil that ethier
so is doomsday out in New Zealand yet?
I love your books so much :)
Hey Chris! Or Mr Morphew haha, whatever u prefer, I have really enjoyed reading your books one by one they have been a great inspiration for me as I LOVE writing stories and have decided I am going to start one on an trip to HK in June. I live in Australia, lucky for me because we get the book first, and my friend posted a picture on Instagram the other day holding the book and I couldn't believe it! My birthday is on Tuesday and I'm really hoping for it as a gift but I would never ask for it because well….I find it rude to ask for gifts. I can't wait to read it no matter how long it takes me to get a hold of it but I have recommended it to everyone person I have met and I'm in year 7 now so all my new high school friends have now read it! We all think you are so talented and you have inspired me to start my own books. I was thinking to start off on the same lines but why not start from scratch and see what my Cooky mind comes up with! I can just imagine you as my teacher! You would be the coolest teacher at the school hahaha. Well I would love to read more of your workings! Thanks again for everything, even if I don't know you personally, you have changed my life completely in the best way possible. <3
Such a good book!!!!!!!! You are a brilliant writer. Thx for some of the best stories of my life
(I hope you read this because I'm not on Facebook and Twitter and it's the only way I can say this)
Anyway, thanks for writing the Phoenix Files series!!!
This is one of my top three book series of all time- and just to let you know, I am such an avid reader, that even my top 10 is extremely difficult to make- in other words, you've done pretty well (um, that may be an bit of an understatement.)
(Also, I have to thank you for your writing tips- I enjoy writing myself, and although I don't know whether I'd make a career out of it when I'm older, writing stories happens to be one of my hobbies- albeit, one of my more hush-hush ones- and your tips have really helped me out.)
However, I just have to ask you- what happens now to Luke, Jordan, Reece, Tobias, the Weirs and every other character? It's kept me up at night wondering how they're all doing after the events in Phoenix. Will Luke and Jordan return to their respective towns and cease to see each other? Will they receive medals or something, or will the government keep everything secret and refuse to help anyone with resettling? How are Peter's parents coping with the loss of their son? What happens now with Dr. Galton? And Tobias- that kid obviously has some kind of super intelligence or immunity or something! What will life be like for him at home and preschool and stuff in general? And what will happen to the town of Phoenix?
Once more, I loved the Phoenix Files and thank you for giving me something to read the past few years!!!!!!
I read the first three books in the series after reading the first together with my son for Reader's Cup in about 2010. It has taken me till now to get back to the series, and I was happy to find out that the final one has just been released. I hate to stop in the middle. So now I will go back and start the series again, and read straight through. My son is now in Yr 12 and not so interested in youth fiction any more, but I have a 10 year old boy who may be soon. I did find the shift in the first person disorientating the first time round, but an interesting concept.
Just read Doomsday, and I must say it wasn't what I was expecting…
It was a fabulous quick easy read and a great way to end a series.
But is there any way, any epilogue book we will ever be able to know more about Luke and Jordan's relationship? (I fell in love with these characters and their confusing relationship) And what happens on the outside afterwards?
will there be a pheonix files movie coz that will be awesome.
Hi Chris,
Love your books!! I'm gay for Bill im the ending! Love him so fucking much!! Can u tell me when doomsday is coming out in perth ? Thanks 😚
Hi Chris,
I'm nine years old and have just finished reading Doomsday and I think its
THE GREATEST PIECE OF LITERATURE IN THE UNIVERSE and I loved the ending.
I'm writing a Sci-Fi short story and it would be cool if you could check it out so heres the link if you want to:
I will be updating the file everytime I write another significant part of the book
I have been trying to get my fellow nerd friend Oliver to read The Phoenix Files, but he says if I read The Hunger Games then he will read The Phoenix Files
Also, one more question SPOILER ALERT: after the events of Doomsday is the whole thing kept secret from the world or does everyone on the outside find out.
thats all for now.
cant wait to get my hands on doomsday. ive read the other five books 3 times
When does doomsday come out in America and where can I find it
Where can I get doomsday/fallout in the UK?
Can't find them anywhere :(
I'll try to!!
Hi, just read doomsday and it is amazing! I admit I cried a bit when
Tobias 'died' :3 Also, in the beginning I got really confused about whose point of view it was, about half way through I saw the names on the chapters XD. I hope that sometime soon you write something explaining what happened to Luke and Jordan after they leave Phoenix
Is Doomsday out in Singapore? I hope it is…
Hi chris
Love your books😝😝😝
Can you please write a book or maybe a tiny book on what happens to Jordan and Luke after they leave
Doomsday still isn't out in AUS. When is it coming out?
Ninja Nath
Wait it is. ☺
Hi, Chris! I'm loving your books. I noticed that the last two books aren't available in digital format yet (for the nook). Do you know if and when they will be?
Thanks so much!!
OMG THIS BOOK WAS AMAZING! Seriously this was the greatest ending to a book series ever! I was SO upset when I finished it because it was the last book, but so happy at the same time that the series was given a fantastic ending! Thank you for a truly fabulous book series!
OMG you actually replied! I'm like fangirl dying right now XD
My mum has been looking at all the book stores in Westfields and none of them sell the Phoenix Files – Doomsday
When is Doomsday out in Singapore. I went to so many shops but I can't find it.
I've read Underground and Fallout and they are super!!!!!
Can't wait 'till Doomsday gets out :)
i just finished the Doomsday book, so good i like that bit where shakelton gets filled with bullets
Don't give to much away
When does Doomsday come out in the US?
Just finished reading 6 it was full of surprise and has a great ending
Is there any chance you will be making a sequel or prequel or any smillar books
THAT WAS … INCREDIBLE I just finished. But I just want to know what happens after doomsday like about Luke and Jordan the other people. BUT THAT ENDING THOUGH
DAT ENDING DOH! But yeah what did happen afterwards?
Yeah I'm kinda eager to know and more specifically Tobias thanks!
Hey guys,
I kinda don't want to say too much about what happens after the end of the series – mostly because I haven't written it and I never really made up any solid answers. I did make this video after Doomsday was released, though: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tE1PrMvpDYE
Hi Chris. I'm trying to get hold of a copy of Doomsday for my school library in Scotland but having trouble as it's out of print. Any chance it's being reprinted soon? :)

The hostel was at the Xijin Ferry area a very old part of town that had a very strong English and German influence evident by German beer halls and very British-like architecture. We wondered around the area that is juxtaposed with an old city wall above which stood a beautiful temple on the hilltop.

It's owned and run by a very energetic Australian, Alf, who was a tour guide, then manager for years, in China, married a woman from Guilin, ran a restaurant in Yangshou first, then sold it and started up the hotel.

Chinese Medicine and the last day in Taizhou
... friend of Wei's reserved a table for us a bar/club, and escorted us there. When we arrived, there was a line of servers lined up to greet us as we entered the bar. We then received the best table, bottle service, and unlimited beer, all for a good price, simply because we were american and people knew we were coming. It was unreal. None of us were expecting this.. we just wanted a fun night out! It turned out to be a really interesting but awesome night though!

Over the course of this trip, I came to really enjoy these times when we were able to break off from the group and explore on our own. I found that i was always so inspired and amazed by what I found. I had forgotten how much I could enjoy sketching outside of class. I chose to sit by a bridge and sketch a pong/swamp area that had a small house, trees, and a temple in the background. It was ...

I love looking at something and trying to figure out how I can recreate it myself for even less money.

Wooden Shipping Crate Toy Box
Corralling toys is always a struggle in our home. It seems like the open topped chests work best for our kids to make a clean sweep quickly.

Pottery Barn Ludlow Trunk Knock-Off
Sarah M. Dorsey Designs is back to show how to make a simple metal base for a table – using aluminum strips and rivets. This would be perfect to make a trunk or chest a little higher or if you have a top and need a simple base. For the past month or so I've been using my campaign chest as an end table in my living room. I loved the idea of it as a nightstand, but I prefer my nightstand about level with the mattress. Inspired by Pottery Barn's Ludlow Trunk, adding a simple metal base, made it the perfect nightstand height!
Farmhouse Bench with Weathered Gray Finish
Yesterday I showed you how to make some Pottery Barn Kids inspired oversized vintage flaschard art for our playroom. Below that was a bench I made from The Handbuilt Home book by Ana White. I saw the Farmhouse Bench on page 76 and knew it would be perfect to use as seating for our kitchen table and provide extra storage with the bottom shelf that would blend in seamlessly in our playroom.

Despite the presence of stars like Chris Gayle, Virat Kohli and Yuvraj Singh, the costliest player this season, Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) missed the train to play-offs in the seventh edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL). The men in red lost to Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) by 30 runs at the Eden Gardens in Kolkata on Thursday.
In the process, Gautam Gambhir & Co qualified to the last four with their sixth win on the trot to join Kings XI Punjab and Chennai Super Kings.
This is for the seventh successive year that RCB after an early promise, failed to deliver. In the must win tie, Kohli invited KKR to bat first. The decision proved fruitful initially when the hosts were reeling at 56 for three. But Robin Uthappa and Shakib Al Hasan went berserk taking the Knights to a winning total (195). The duo brought their international experience into play when they did the damage control and then, went on a rampage.
The Bangalore batsman, who has been in sublime touch ever since he landed in India, once again proved to be the match winner. Uthappa not only remained unbeaten on 83 off 51 (10x4, 1x6), he also shared a 121-run partnership for the fourth wicket with Shakib who scored 60 off 38 (5x3, 3x6).
This was Uthappa's fifth half-century this season as with a tally of 572 runs, the KKR opener usurped the Orange Cap from Glen Maxwell (533), who was holding on to the pole since the start of season seven in Abu Dhabi on April 16.
With so many match winners in the squad, the target was not impossible for RCB but they lost Gayle in the second over. The Jamaican was trapped leg-before by speedster Umesh Yadav. Yogesh Takawale 45 off 36 (5X4, 1X6), who replaced Parthiv Patel behind the wickets, kept the scoreboard ticking along with skipper Virat Kohli, 38 off 31 (3X4, 1X6). They shared an 85-run stand for the second wicket in 10 overs.
But when Gambhir sensed the match slipping away, he threw the ball to his main weapon Sunil Narine who did not disappoint. He ran through the RCB middle order. Yuvraj, 22 off 12 (1X4, 2X6), showed glimpse of his class but he too fell to the West Indian's magic. In the end, RCB managed 165/5, 30 short of target.
In fact, Narine followed Uthappa as he remained one away from Purple Cap holder (leading wicket-taker) Bhuvneshwar Kumar's (Sunrisers Hyderabad) tally of 20.
