Darker Morrowind Steel Towershield for Morrowind
This is a work based on Michael 'HelioS' Bennett's excellent Darker Morrowind v4 texture pack. The Steel Armor retexture was among my favorites armor retextures ever, but sadly it lacked a retexture of the tower shield. So, I took the regular Darker Morrowind steel shield's textures and adapted them to the tower shield's shape.

When ordering BT Broadband (option 2), I requested ADSL cards but received BT Voyager 1055 USB adaptors. These are plainly marked "compatible only with Windows 2000 And XP" and I'm running Vista. At no time during the call was I asked about my operating system, nor was this limitation pointed out to me. Needless to say, my email of complaint has so far met with a deafening silence. Dick Thickett
USB wireless adaptors have only two advantages, neither of which has anything to do with either wireless or networking -- they are cheap, and easy to fit. As such, they find their place in consumer bundles that are sold on price. Since you are willing to open up your PC and install an expansion card, you'd be better off buying a Vista-compatible PCI card. I have not tried any but the Linksys Wireless-G PCI Card WMP54G, the similar Broadcom BCM4306 and the Netgear WG311T 108Mbps are listed as being compatible on the Winmatrix site at http://www.winmatrix.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=10334.
PCI cards are more reliable and don't use up processor cycles like USB adaptors. Whether you can get BT to supply one is another matter. Since Vista was all over the press for five years, had 5m beta testers and the final code was released last year, you might have thought more companies would have seen it coming and prepared for it. Apparently not.
I am preparing a PowerPoint presentation with about 80 photographs. What is the best size and resolution for the photos to get the best result without making the file too big? Rejane Belanger
An article on the Microsoft Office site says: "The Basic Rule is this: For images that fill the slide, the image size (in pixels) should be equal to the video screen's resolution. For example, if your screen resolution is set to 1024 x 768, that's the size you want your full-slide images to be. If the image occupies only half the width and half the height of the slide, it should be 512 pixels wide, and or 384 pixels high." (http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/powerpoint/HA011163551033.aspx)
I usually start with images intended for web use, with a resolution of 72 pixels per inch, not ones designed for printing (probably 300ppi). PowerPoint seems to assume 100ppi, so resampling your high-resolution images at 96ppi -- using Irfan View or PhotoShop or whatever -- will probably produce better results.
However, try not to change too many things in PowerPoint. It has a wonderful "undo" capability, but if you change an image it will keep the old copy, just in case you want to go back to it later. This will, of course, make the file correspondingly larger.
Backchat: Robert D Heap says: "If your picture is full screen, insert it as a background. This eliminates all the edit clutter and reduces the file size considerably, with no visible loss of quality. Text can be superimposed if desired." If using more than one picture, he adds, save the whole slide as a jpeg, then use this as the background on a new blank slide: "The file size is reduced, typically by 60%, I find."
If I upgrade my Windows XP computer to Vista, does that mean I can upgrade my Windows Me machine to XP, using the upgrade CD I used before -- or would I be breaching the conditions of my "single user" agreement? Dougie Firth
PC manufacturers generally license Windows at the lowest price, where each copy is specifically tied to a single PC. Microsoft now makes this absolutely clear in the EULA, or End-User Licensing Agreement. I believe that re-using the XP upgrade CD would violate that agreement.
Also, the Vista upgrade has to be done from a validated copy of XP, and I'd expect Microsoft to invalidate your XP key when it validates the Vista key. Even if it didn't, every XP key is associated with a hash number calculated from the PC hardware (motherboard, processor, etc) that it is used on. Your Me system's hardware would produce a completely different hash value. Of course, you could still try it.
I use Opera, and I like it. I often hear Firefox recommended, so why do I never seem to hear about Opera? Dave Morgan
In computing, recommendations often have a pseudo-religious nature. Firefox was claimed to be innovative for adding features that Opera already had because Firefox is open source and free. Opera's genuine innovations, superior accessibility (eg for blind users), robustness, standards-compliance and security were ignored because it is a commercial program, and because the free version (which appeared with v5.0 in 2000) was supported by advertising. Although Opera removed the ad banners in 2005, it was far too late to have much impact.
Also, Firefox comes from California, whereas Opera comes from Norway. However, Opera has found support from companies based outside Silicon Valley, including Nintendo, Nokia, Sony, Sharp, Archos and Psion.
I'm getting a warning from my free AVG anti-virus that I have a Trojan Lop. AVG can't deal with this. Windows Defender reports that everything is OK, as do several other anti-spyware programs. Denis Colligan

The fact that the National Guard isn't being mobilized in the numbers we would expect is easily explainable, however our established new agencies have ignored what should be on page one of every US publication - Blackwater International is running a full page on their website attempting to compile "a list of qualified security personnel for possible deployment into areas affected by Hurricane Gustav." This is a task that has historically been undertaken by our various state National Guard Units, however, as it pertains to Hurricane Gustav, it appears that Blackwater International has been informed that their services may be necessary to aid in the security and well-being (sic) of those who are impacted by this dangerous storm.
Fabled Enemies: Spy Thriller Exposes Vast Intelligence Plot Behind 9/11
Depth of evidence presented in brand new 9/11 truth film buries official story for good.
The film does not try to invent an alternative scenario behind what really happened on 9/11, it expertly demolishes the official version by concentrating on how Bin Laden's network was protected every step of the way by higher-ups and the hijackers issued visas while good FBI agents like Robert Wright attempted to penetrate the wider plot but were blocked from doing so.
Police State RNC: A Nun and Eight Others Swept into Unmarked Van by Cops in Minnesota
Abuse of "probable cause holds" shows the importance of habeus corpus protections.
The 6 activists arrested during police raids in advance of the Republican National Convention are being held without charge by the Ramsey County Sheriff's Office, the Minnesota Independent reports.
The arrestees are being held on probable cause holds. These holds give the authorities 36 hours to charge them or let them go. Holds are typically used to give investigators more time to gather evidence before filing formal charges.
Zimbabwe doctors' advice: Don't get sick
The advice of doctors to Zimbabweans is, don't get sick. If you do, don't count on hospitals - they're short of drugs and functioning equipment.

Fish oil outperforms statin in heart failure study

For the first time in human history, the North Pole can be circumnavigated
Open water now stretches all the way round the Arctic, making it possible for the first time in human history to circumnavigate the North Pole, The Independent on Sunday can reveal. New satellite images, taken only two days ago, show that melting ice last week opened up both the fabled North-west and North-east passages, in the most important geographical landmark to date to signal the unexpectedly rapid progress of global warming.
Flu shot does not cut risk of death in elderly
"Over the last two decades in the United Sates, even while (flu) vaccination rates among the elderly have increased from 15 to 65 percent, there has been no commensurate decrease in hospital admissions or all-cause mortality," added co-investigator Dr. Dean T. Eurich, who is also with the University of Alberta.
"Further, only about 10 percent of winter-time deaths in the United States are attributable to influenza, thus to suggest that the vaccine can reduce 50 percent of deaths from all causes is implausible in our opinion," he added.
Strapped for cash, some in New Orleans stay and hope
"The thing is," he continued, "most people don't have cars to leave, don't have money for gas. Pay for a hotel for that long? I mean, you have to do whatever you have to do, and I guess I'm gonna stay and work."
Across town in the 9th Ward, a neighborhood decimated by Katrina, Sidney William climbs slowly out of his truck. He's 49 but moves like he's 20 years older.
"My legs hurt; my feet hurt a lot," he said. "It's not easy."
William wants desperately to leave his native New Orleans to avoid Gustav. He didn't leave for Katrina because he didn't have the money. He won't talk about what happened to him during that storm.
"I wish I had the money to go." Rejected for disability subsidies, he depends on his 23-year-old daughter, Gloria, to support the family.

Massive police raids on suspected protestors in Minneapolis
Protesters here in Minneapolis have been targeted by a series of highly intimidating, sweeping police raids across the city, involving teams of 25-30 officers in riot gear, with semi-automatic weapons drawn, entering homes of those suspected of planning protests, handcuffing and forcing them to lay on the floor, while law enforcement officers searched the homes, seizing computers, journals, and political pamphlets.
TVNL Comment: Tell me again how we live in a democracy. Tell me how this is not a police state.

Chronic inhibition of tumor cell-derived VEGF enhances the malignant phenotype of colorectal cancer cells

BMC Cancer 2013, 13:229 doi:10.1186/1471-2407-13-229Published: 7 May 2013
Vascular endothelial growth factor-a (VEGF)-targeted therapies have become an important treatment for a number of human malignancies. The VEGF inhibitors are actually effective in several types of cancers, however, the benefits are transiently, and the vast majority of patients who initially respond to the therapies will develop resistance. One of possible mechanisms for the acquired resistance may be the direct effect(s) of VEGF inhibitors on tumor cells expressing VEGF receptors (VEGFR). Thus, we investigated here the direct effect of chronic VEGF inhibition on phenotype changes in human colorectal cancer (CRC) cells.
To chronically inhibit cancer cell-derived VEGF, human CRC cell lines (HCT116 and RKO) were chronically exposed (2 months) to an anti-VEGF monoclonal antibody (mAb) or were disrupted the Vegf gene (VEGF-KO). Effects of VEGF family members were blocked by treatment with a VEGF receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor (VEGFR-TKI). Hypoxia-induced apoptosis under VEGF inhibited conditions was measured by TUNEL assay. Spheroid formation ability was assessed using a 3-D spheroid cell culture system.
Chronic inhibition of secreted/extracellular VEGF by an anti-VEGF mAb redundantly increased VEGF family member (PlGF, VEGFR1 and VEGFR2), induced a resistance to hypoxia-induced apoptosis, and increased spheroid formation ability. This apoptotic resistance was partially abrogated by a VEGFR-TKI, which blocked the compensate pathway consisted of VEGF family members, or by knockdown of Vegf mRNA, which inhibited intracellular function(s) of all Vegf gene products. Interestingly, chronic and complete depletion of all Vegf gene products by Vegf gene knockout further augmented these phenotypes in the compensate pathway-independent manner. These accelerated phenotypes were significantly suppressed by knockdown of hypoxia-inducible factor-1α that was up-regulated in the VEGF-KO cell lines.
Our findings suggest that chronic inhibition of tumor cell-derived VEGF accelerates tumor cell malignant phenotypes.

This Mother's Day, we salute those celebrity moms who have given birth to their starbabies since last year at this time -- and in particular those who have given their offspring what we consider to be the most interesting and appealing appellations. These are the first children for several of them; others have made up a sibset. And the winners are ...
For their first child, actors Claire Danes and Hugh Dancy chose newly stylish ancient Persian hero name. Their boy's more conventional middle names are related to Dancy's family: Michael is one of his dad's middle names, Christopher was his maternal grandfather.

The daughter of the late Natalie Wood –whose birth name was Natalia, nicknamed Natasha—paid tribute to her famous mom by giving her baby a name referencing one of her signature roles, in the 1965 film Inside Daisy Clover. Clover is one of the new generation of appealing wildflower names.

Abrams and Bryan Burk at Bad Robot on April 10, 2013 in Santa Monica, California. (Photo by Stefanie Keenan/Getty Images for Coach)
Despite all the presidential surnames that have been given to girls in the past—from Madison to Taylor to Tyler to Kennedy—this one feels like a first. In a burst of Lincoln fever, Bell and fiancée Dax Shepherd were quoted as saying they intended using the name whether the baby was a boy or a girl.

Fashion experts say a streamlined style best suits a baby bump. (Photo by Danny Moloshok/Invision/AP, file)
No one knew quite what the baby naming style of Jersey Shore's Nicole "Snooki" Polizzi might be, but there was nothing but approbation when she chose the handsome Italian classic Lorenzo, which dates back to the Renaissance Medicis. Middle name Dominic was after an uncle of Nicole's. Photo: Nicole "Snooki" Polizzi arrives at the MTV Movie Awards in Sony Pictures Studio Lot in Culver City, Calif., on Sunday April 14, 2013. (Photo by Jordan Strauss/Invision/AP)
We like Marlowe, which is popping up all over the celebrisphere in a bunch of different spellings, but we LOVE the elegant Ottaline, which makes a great middle name choice. Photo: Sienna Miller attends the 'Orphans' Broadway opening night at the Gerald Schoenfeld Theatre on April 18, 2013 in New York City. (Photo by Mike Pont/Getty Images)
Following in the footsteps of Isla Fisher and Sacha Baron Cohen, Drew Barrymore and husband Will Kopelman picked this sophisticated alternative to the mega-popular Olivia. Barrymore stated that she got the idea from a book she read when she was pregnant saying 'your baby is the size of an olive' -- and that was it. Photo: Actress Drew Barrymore arrives at the 24th Annual GLAAD Media Awards at JW Marriott Los Angeles at L.A. LIVE on April 20, 2013 in Los Angeles, California.

Reality star Kourtney gets a lot of credit for the phenomenal success of her first child Mason's name, but with this one she'll have to share it with other celebrity parents like Tina Fey and the Taylor Hansons -- along with actress Penelope Cruz. Penelope is already in the Top 170, and looks to be climbing higher. Middle name Scotland was a clever way to honor the baby's dad, Scott Disick.

An unexpected but inspired combo -- the peppy, floral Poppy followed by the boyish James. Poppy's siblings are named Luke Hudson and Eve Augusta. Photo: Actress Jessica Capshaw attends the Huggies Snug & Dry and Baby2Baby Mother's Day Garden Party held on April 27, 2013 in Los Angeles, California.

Reese Witherspoon's name choice for her third child came as a surprise, one unlikely to be as influential as that of Ava, her firstborn. Tennessee is where Reese spent most of her childhood, and it's her mother's native state, which gives it personal meaning for her. Photo: Actress Reese Witherspoon attends the Cinema Society screening of 'Mud' at The Museum of Modern Art on April 21, 2013 in New York City. (Photo by Dimitrios Kambouris/Getty Images)
Jemima Kirke, aka Jessa on Girls, named her new son Memphis, supposedly prompting Lena Dunham to remark that he should have a play date with Reese Witherspoon's Tennessee. Kirke also has a daughter named Rafaella Isreal, showing she has a real affinity for place names. Photo: Actress Jemima Kirke attends the 2013 Joyful Heart Foundation Gala at Cipriani 42nd Street on May 9, 2013 in New York City. (Photo by Andrew H. Walker/Getty Images)
Sweet Violet carries on the tradition in mom Poppy's family of using floral names for girls. The Without a Trace star's sisters are called Rosie Thorn, Daisy Yellow, Lily Belle and Marigold Sun. Photo: Actress Poppy Montgomery attends the 11th annual InStyle summer soiree held at The London Hotel on August 8, 2012 in West Hollywood, California. (Photo by Jason Merritt/Getty Images)
The Taylor Hansons have had plenty of name-picking practice, and seem to be getting more adventurous each time. Wilhelmina Jane follows Jordan Ezra (Jordan being Taylor's birth name), Penelope Anne, River Samuel and Viggo Moriah. Photo: Natalie Hanson and Musician Taylor Hanson attend the Entertainment Weekly Academy Awards viewing party at Elaine's on February 25, 2007 in New York City. (Photo by Peter Kramer/Getty Images)

Epilepsy and other seizure disorders result when nerves excessively or inappropriately "fire?in the brain. The brain's "off?switches fail in part due to protein defects that prevent potassium from exiting nerve cells and calming them. "Channels that carry potassium,?says Min Li, Ph.D., professor of neuroscience at Johns Hopkins, "must open on cue to make sure nerve cells only fire for defined periods of time.?
In their studies of these channels, Li and his colleagues developed a new way of testing thousands of druglike molecules to find any that could turn the potassium switch on or off. Their approach involved chemically shaving off all the potassium channels on the cell surface and forcing the cells to make new channels. By measuring the activity of the new channels, the researchers could identify molecules that accelerated the recovery.
One chemical that proved quite effective in improving channel recovery was zinc pyrithione (ZnPy), the active ingredient in many dandruff shampoos. Li explains that ZnPy has a shape that allows it to fit into the gate region of the channel protein and allow more potassium flow. "If you think of these channels as doors on the cell's surface,?Li says, "then ZnPy made this door both easier to open and stay open longer. It's like a tunable hinge that helps sticky doors swing freely.?
The researchers then tested defective channels that contain the same mutations known in humans to cause mild epilepsy-like seizures in infants. Bathing cells with small amounts of ZnPy caused the mutant potassium channels to let three times as much potassium flow through, raising the possibility of res

BEIRUT — The international envoy to Syria said after talks Monday with the country's leader that the situation is "worrying" and gave no indication of progress toward a negotiated solution for the civil war.
Lakhdar Brahimi's mission came as activists reported intense fighting in the central province of Hama, where anti-government gunmen entered the predominantly Alawite town of Maan.
President Bashar Assad's regime is dominated by members of his minority Alawite sect, an offshoot of Shiite Islam, while most of the rebels are Sunni Muslims.
Mr. Brahimi said he and Mr. Assad exchanged views on the crisis and discussed possible steps forward, which he did not disclose. He spoke briefly to reporters after meeting the Syrian leader at the presidential palace in Damascus.
"The situation in Syria is still worrying, and we hope that all the parties will go toward the solution that the Syrian people are hoping for and look forward to," Mr. Brahimi said.
Syria's state news agency quoted Mr. Assad as saying his government supports "any effort in the interest of the Syrian people which preserves the homeland's sovereignty and independence."
Mr. Brahimi apparently has made little progress toward brokering an end to the conflict since starting his job in September, primarily because both sides adamantly refuse to talk to each other.
The government describes the rebels as foreign-backed terrorists set on destroying the country. The opposition says forces under Mr. Assad's command have killed too many people for him to be part of any solution.
Activists say more than 40,000 people have been killed since the Syrian uprising began in March 2011.
Mr. Brahimi's two-day visit was to end later Monday. It is his third to Damascus as an envoy of the United Nations and the Arab League.
The security situation in Damascus and elsewhere in the country has declined since Mr. Brahimi's previous visits.
Instead of flying to the Damascus International Airport as he did on earlier visits, Mr. Brahimi drove to Damascus over land from Beirut because of fighting near the Damascus airport.
In Hama province, where rebels launched an offensive against army checkpoints and posts last week, opposition gunmen entered Maan and raised the opposition flag over the main police station, Hama activist Mousab Alhamadee said via Skype.
The Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said the rebels included members of Jabhat al-Nusra, which has been branded a terrorist group by the United States and is affiliated with al Qaeda.
The Observatory and Mr. Alhamadee said the rebels shot down a Syrian government MiG warplane that was attacking rebel positions in and around Maan. The Observatory said at least 20 soldiers and 11 rebels were killed in Monday's fighting.

HUNTSVILLE - Throwing a hefty and somewhat arbitrary bill at those who want to build green energy projects in Huntsville may be sending the wrong message, says Mayor Claude Doughty.
Doughty raised his concerns during a town planning committee meeting on Jan. 16 when staff recommended charging various fees to applicants looking for municipal support for projects linked to the province's feed-in-tariff program.
Chris Brown, senior planner for the town, said the fees would allow the town to recover the administrative costs associated with the review of renewable energy projects.
"The proposed amendment (to the fees and charges bylaw) introduces a fee structure based on whether the proponent is requesting a municipal council resolution or a written zoning opinion pursuant to the microFIT program," said Brown.
He explained that renewable energy projects, such as solar, wind, hydroelectric, biogas and biomass, either benefit from, or require, municipal support or feedback.
There are two types of renewable energy projects – microFIT and FIT. MicroFit projects generate less than 10 kilowatts of electricity, while FIT projects create between 10 kilowatts and 50 megawatts of energy, depending on their size.
There is a limited amount of space on the provincial energy grid for renewable energy projects, so not all projects are approved to connect to the grid.
Brown said FIT projects earn priority points under the feed-in-tariff program if they have the support of the municipality in which the project is located.
And while microFIT projects do not need priority points as they are approved on a first come-first served basis, they do require a written opinion by a land-use planner indicating whether a proposal complies with microFIT program rules.
Brown said that providing a resolution of support from council requires staff to review the application, conduct a site visit, consult municipal departments and outside organizations such as lake associations, and prepare a report for council.
Depending on the project, a minor variance application may be required as well.
Brown's report recommended recovering the cost associated with town staff providing these services by charging various fees.
If approved, the fee for a request for a municipal support resolution for a FIT project would be $300 for a project of 15 kilowatts or less, $610 for a project between 15.1 kilowatts and 0.5 megawatts, and $1,145 for a project greater than 0.5 megawatts, with an additional $250 charged for each 0.5 megawatt above one megawatt.
A written opinion from a land-use planner for a microFIT project would cost $125.
Brown noted in his report that "municipalities have the authority to recover incurred costs for certain activities under the Municipal Act." Charging these fees would therefore be allowed, he said.
The town can also incorporate other requirements, such as making proponents of 0.5 megawatt and greater green energy projects responsible for notifying all neighbours within a 120-metre radius about the project.
"The proponent of a renewable energy project is not required to consult a municipality or the public, or apply to the municipality for any approvals in order to build a project," said Brown.
But the municipality can build a notification requirement into its approval process, making the proponent responsible for notifying neighbours should the proponent want the municipality's support for FIT program priority points.
Coun. John Davis supported the notification requirement and wanted it enhanced so that the municipality played a part in notifying residents as well.
"Certainly, when you get into large wind turbines, that could have an effect on a lot of people. We should make that public, so people realize what is happening," said Davis.
He added that residents are increasingly caught off-guard by cell tower proposals and he did not want to see that happen with green energy proposals, too.
But Doughty was more concerned with staff's recommendation to charge flat fees on green energy projects. He put the brakes on the recommendation, at least temporarily.
"One of our objectives, especially from the standpoint of the Unity Plan, is to encourage these projects," said Doughty, referring to the municipality's sustainability plan. "With the fee structure you've got there, I'm not necessarily sure we're doing that."
He said an alternate approach to obtaining fees would be to charge for town staff services by the hour rather than charging a flat rate.
"The message that would send is that it's not punitive, we're only going to charge for the work we're going to do," said Doughty. "(Proponents) would get a commercial advantage by us doing the work, so that's fair. But I would ask you to give that some consideration."
Committee deferred a decision on staff's recommendation pending further review of a potential fee structure.

I know, I know, hard to believe that it's the real reason why Dean Clifford was jailed. But to occult something simply means to hide it. And by un-occulting the knowledge and info and exposing the truth about their fake power, Dean Clifford was jailed and kept in the worse prison in the country for 16 months out of vengence for daring to question their doctrine.
In the 1740's in France, a dissident like Dean would have been dragged to the top of a monument and had his head chopped off to scare onlookers. In the dark ages he would have been accused of witchcraft and burned at the stake in a public display. Religious leaders say that people like Dean are possessed by satan or demons to dissuade others from listening to them. In the present, people like Dean are equated to people who commmit terrible acts, called terrorists and jailed.
These things were all done to generate fear of the knowledge that's hidden from the masses, because when you have that knowledge, you're just as powerful as they are.
The ruling class are terrified of people who think, and do, for themselves. They're no different than abusive parents who get upset or depressed when the child has had enough and leaves home.
The curtains are being pulled back and the wizards are pathetic little children.
You all know who I'm writing this for.
There's a demarcation line between what is fact and what is fiction. And there's a big difference between learning about something and 'believing in' it.
Think about this – You can read the bible without becoming a Christian as a result of what you read. You can read a book about building houses without becoming a construction worker.
Are you a baker if you read a recipe book on making bread and muffins?
Same thing goes for occult and satanic stuff. Just because I think the topic and subject matter is interesting, to me it's an extension of psychology which is something I'm interested in. I DO NOT believe in this stuff or adopt it as my own belief system! Jeez, people.
It only appears to be magic or mysterious because you don't know the psychology behind it. You create stuff in your own mind, just like you created the monsters under the bed in your own mind when you were a kid.
It's all psychological triggers that bring up primal fear artifacts left over from human evolution.
Satan – simply means opposition or adversary.
Demon – demon is a person or uneducated person. It was the common name for such people in the ancient past.
Lucifer – is simply enlightenment, or barer or bringer of light. Basically, knowledge, or a knowledgeable person who was not part of the ruling class.
All those words were simply concepts and it wasn't until thousands of years AFTER the words were coind that they were given an embodiment by religious experts, or said to be imaginary beings – to scare regular people into compliance and to convince them that knowledge (enlightenment) was evil – to keep them down and hold them back as a species and keep the ruling class in power at the time. Because if the peasants or Demons were smart, they would have been smart enough to know that the rulers were no different than them.
The ruling class were occulting, or hiding, the knowledge about human nature and using it to control them.
That's it in a nut shell. There is nothing more to it than that. Everything else is just logistics and semantics, or disinformation to distract and confuse.
Jeez, it's a good thing I'm not a psychopath or I could have the people begging me for info on this indoctrinated into my own cult right now.
Last weekend a friend from work saw that I had a copy of the satanic bible on my computer. It's there purely for research. I don't 'believe' in any ideology, especially subversive ones.
So as a joke, I have worn as much black clothing as possible at work for the past two days and it's hilarious that no one has said anything to me, but they look at me a lot differently, and they're even searching my name on Google!!
Yes "Paul Short Satanist" has been used as a search term to find my site a number of times now and the referring IP addresses are all local to the town I'm in!
Guys, Gals, anyone interested in hanging out at my grotto this weekend?

I use an RSS news reader to subscribe to, and get instant updates from about 150 blogs and news sites. In the app, the headlines appear and you just click on them to go to the site. Saves a lot of time and hassle. But I've been noticing a lot of errors on a number of sites.
Clicking on the headline in the RSS reader opens my regular internet browser, whhich then hangs for a few seconds, and then there's either a 503 error at the sites, the hosting control panel pops up saying the owner has not configured the site, or there's a timeout.
That's strange because the problems are not on my end, it's their sites and hosting accounts. These errors are coming from their servers.
What fixes it? Simply refreshing the page. That's it. So it's not like all these sites are down for maintenance or something and come back in a few minutes or a few hours. It's a case where seconds later, after a page refresh the site is there again.
One site being down occasionally is perfectly normal. But 2-5 out of 10 times accessing different sites means something else is going on. That many various sites having that many problems over a period of days is not statistically plausable.
I previously linked to and quoted a post from The Intercept about Canada's major role in hacking sites and infrastructure and here's another quote from that article which may be related to this. The bolding is mine:
Canada's electronic surveillance agency has secretly developed an arsenal of cyberweapons capable of stealing data and destroying adversaries' infrastructure, according to newly revealed classified documents.
The revelations, reported Monday by CBC News in collaboration with The Intercept, shine a light for the first time on how Canada has adopted aggressive tactics to attack, sabotage and infiltrate targeted computer systems.
The document suggests CSE has access to a series of sophisticated malware tools developed by the NSA as part of a program known as QUANTUM. As The Intercept has previously reported, the QUANTUM malware can be used for a range of purposes — such as to infect a computer and copy data stored on its hard drive, to block targets from accessing certain websites, or to disrupt their file downloads. Some of the QUANTUM techniques rely on redirecting a targeted person's internet browser to a malicious version of a popular website, such as Facebook, that then covertly infects their computer with the malware.
Adversaries – The alternative media would certainly be considered adversaries, wouldn't they?
Aggressive tactics, sabotage, infiltrate – Temporarily blocking access to alternative media sites to discourage people from visiting would certainly fall under that umbrella, wouldn't it?
Block targets from accessing, disrupt file downloads, redirecting a person's internet browser – Need I say more?
When problems occur, you point the finger at the person or people who have been proven to be actively creating such problems.
And yes, these people and agencies are operating by the dictionary definitions of what a cult is. 😉
Tim Osman = Osama (Usama) bin Laden
Psychopathic grand master Stephen Harper and his cult of liars, hackers and subversive filth have been hell bent on ruining Canada and putting Canadians in grave mortal danger by commiting acts of aggression on other nations who have the power to fight back… all in the name of protecting us, of course.
From The Intercept:
Canada's electronic surveillance agency has secretly developed an arsenal of cyberweapons capable of stealing data and destroying adversaries' infrastructure, according to newly revealed classified documents.
Communications Security Establishment, or CSE, has also covertly hacked into computers across the world to gather intelligence, breaking into networks in Europe, Mexico, the Middle East and North Africa, the documents show.
The revelations, reported Monday by CBC News in collaboration with The Intercept, shine a light for the first time on how Canada has adopted aggressive tactics to attack, sabotage and infiltrate targeted computer systems.
To prove that Canada's intel agencies are, indeed, a cult, one only has to look at the above, which was hidden, secret knowledge before it was revealed in documents released by Edward Snowden a couple years ago.
The practicing occultist's primary objective is to hide knowledge so that it can be used to gain an advantage over those of you who do not have the same knowledge. Magic, or what they refer to as Black Magic is one of the ways they go about hiding, or occulting both the knowledge they hide, and their methods of hiding it.
Fear of death
Chances are, you know, or have heard of a child who is afraid of the dark. For most adults, it seems like a childish fear because you all know that when the child goes to bed, turning off the light does not create any danger in the bedroom that didn't exist when the lights were on. But to the child, that fear if danger is very real.
But what the parent doesn't usually know is that the fear of the dark is an instinct that developed millions of years ago in our evolutionary ancestors as a survival mechanism. Imagine a small group of early humans living outside in the wilderness. At night, any number of predators come out to hunt stealthily, under the cover of darkness. So in order to survive they became more fearful and their senses became more heightened. They took measures to protect themselves from what may have been lurking in the darkness, like seeking or building shelter, lighting fires that cast light on their immediate surroundings to keep night time predators away, etc. It goes back even further I'm sure, because even the lower animals have natural fears that protect them, but this explanation should suffice for now.
Fast forward to the present.
How many people walking around going about their lives today even know they have primal fears that go back to beyond the time when their evolutionary ancestors walked on all fours or discovered fire?
If you ask them, they'll probably say yes, they know about it, or acknowledge that it makes a lot of sense.
But try to tell them that when a priest talks about the dark forces of evil, or a video is realeased online of an ISIS terrorist dressed in black, or a local cop wears black riot gear, they are invoking that primal fear of darkness and the person will laugh at you or call you a nutcase.
Go farther and tell them that those people are performing a type of black magic called an invocation and see where it gets you.
Even the word 'black' when used in conjunction with the word 'magic' is, in and of itself, an invocation that 'conjures' those primal fears of the unknown dangers lurking in the dark.
As you read this, right now, you are experiencing fear and some discomfort, because I am talking about black, darkness, fear and black magic.
But just like the small child who was afraid of the dark, once the parent goes into the room, turns on the light and maybe shows the child that there's nothing to fear in the closet, under the bed or behind the dresser, whether the lights are on or off, once people know what was previously unknown there is no reason to fear it. Or if some danger does exist, appropriate action can be taken to protect oneself from that danger without being gripped by fear, just like our evolutionary ancestors did millions of years ago.
It really is that simple. That really is all there is to it.
The magic only happens in the minds of the people who don't have the knowledge of how the tricks are done.
What is the occult?
Back in May of 2012 I published the definition of the word occult as:
The word occult comes from the Latin word occultus (clandestine, hidden, secret), referring to "knowledge of the hidden."
The Online Etymology Dictionary defines the word occult as:
occult (adj.)
1530s, "secret, not divulged," from Middle French occulte and directly from Latin occultus "hidden, concealed, secret," past participle of occulere "cover over, conceal," from ob "over" (see ob-) + a verb related to celare "to hide," from PIE root *kel- (2) "to cover, conceal" (see cell). Meaning "not apprehended by the mind, beyond the range of understanding" is from 1540s. The association with the supernatural sciences (magic, alchemy, astrology, etc.) dates from 1630s.
The definition varies slightly from dictionary to dictionary but the principle definition always remains the same – occult means hidden, to occult something means to hide it from view and occultists or occult practitioners are those who hide knowledge.
The handfull of companies, government agencies and other entities I mentioned in my previous post titled The Truth Is Dead Online, are, by all definitions, occultists and occult practitioners, as is any group or individual who hides knowledge and information to gain an advantage over those who do not have that knowledge.
That's a fact. And if you don't 'believe' it, that's called ignorance:
ignorant (adj.)
late 14c., from Old French ignorant (14c.), from Latin ignorantia, from ignorantem (nominative ignorans), present participle of ignorare "not to know, to be unacquainted; mistake, misunderstand; take no notice of, pay no attention to," from assimilated form of in- "not, opposite of" (see in- (1)) + Old Latin gnarus "aware, acquainted with" (cognates: Classical Latin noscere "to know," notus "known"), from Proto-Latin suffixed form *gno-ro-, related to gnoscere "to know" (see know).
Form influenced by Latin ignotus "unknown." Also see uncouth. Colloquial sense of "ill-mannered" first attested 1886. As a noun meaning "ignorant person" from mid-15c.
And ignorance is both the goal and the result of the occult.
Is this making sense to you yet?

While staying at the clover Spa hotel we walked up the road to this really nice restaurant. Food was excellent and prices were reasonable. Staff very friendly
Lovely meal and excellent service in very pleasant surroundings. We had booked a table but could possibly have just walked in as we visited in fairly early on Friday evening. Ordered popadums, of course, and then 4 mains to share with 2 rice and 2 naan. Plenty for 4 of us to eat. We took our own wine as well...
This was not a great food experience, although the staff were lovely and service very good. not too quick, sometimes with Indians you can be in and out before you know! there was an excellent deal on which made it very good value for money, if only the food had been great. It wasn't, it was just ok.
i have been going here for over 10 years and i think that it was better before they make over. the prices have gone up and the portions got smaller. the quality it good but as good as it was back a few years. id still recommend it.
Would highly recommend this restaurant me and my partner visited. The food was delicious and the service is fantastic. When we visited we had a lady play music on an instrument and found it really relaxing. I will be returning :)
My husband and i decided to give this restaurant a try last night (sat 3/1/14). We had our 7 week old daughter in the pushchair with us. The restaurant was pretty empty, on entering we asked for a table for 2 only to be told they wasn't prepared to accept our custom as we had a pushchair with us! And...
We came across this place after being recommended by staff at a local hotel.
Both my husband and myself really enjoyed our meal and though it was really good value for money, the total bill coming in at £36 for popadoms, a main meal, rice, naan and two soft drinks each. And what makes this even better is you can...
For me, the curry was very bland - one of the blandest I have had in a while. Have only tried one curry, but I am not tempted to go back and try any more.
Enjoyed yet another meal here before going on holiday. Food is lovely, well presented and not at all greasy. You can take your own beer and wine or buy there. Excellent start to our holiday yet again!
Had a dreadful meal here. Food took ages to arrive and was not worth waiting for. Three prawns in the prawn balti - so generosity poor. Waiter was sooooo miserable and grumpy. Restaurant was not busy and I can see why. Plus side was you can take you own alcohol however -
DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME AND MONEY try...

A judge approved a deal Tuesday for a Chinese company to buy the assets of a bankrupt U.S. battery maker that won a quarter-billion-dollar grant from the federal government just three years ago.
Though the purchase still requires federal approval, the sale of A123 Systems Inc. to China-based Wanxiang Group Corp. moved closer to reality after a judge signed off on the nearly $257 million sale.
The Chinese company would receive most of A123's assets, but the failed company's government contracting business would go to U.S.-based Navitas Systems under a separate agreement that also won approval Tuesday.
"We believe the acquisition by Wanxiang will provide A123 with the financial support necessary to strengthen our competitive position … and we look forward to completing the sale," A123's chief executive Dave Vieau said in a statement after a hearing in U.S. Bankruptcy Court in Delaware.
Still, the sale requires approval from the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States, a federal entity that signs off on sales of U.S. companies to foreign buyers.
But several members of Congress have raised concerns about the deal.
Republican Sens. Chuck Grassley of Iowa and John Thune of South Dakota issued a joint statement Monday calling for a "full review" of the bankruptcy transaction by the Treasury Department, which also must approve the deal.
"In the end, the taxpayers will be left having to repay interest to China for a business that a Chinese company now owns," the lawmakers said.

At this Financial Regulation Session of the G20 Leaders Summit, M. Gurría spoke of 'a comprehensive reform of the international financial architecture that should include financial inclusion, protection and education'.
"At the end of the day, this is what the G20 is about: its "raison d'être" is to show leadership and equip the global economy with an efficient framework for policy coordination. And trade in raw materials and in food commodities should be no exception to this.", said M. Gurría.
The jobs crisis has three particularly worrying aspects. First, the risk of unemployment becoming entrenched is more and more real in a number of G20 countries. Second, the crisis impacts disproportionately on youth. Finally, growing inequality threatens to affect social cohesion and the living standards of vulnerable families and individuals.

Africa Tourism Set for Sustained Growth
The hotel and tourism industry in Africa is beginning a period of sustained growth, according to the sectors leading experts gathered at the Africa Hotel Investment Forum in Addis Ababa
Hoteliers in Budapest recorded growth of 21.6% in RevPAR (Revenue per Available Room) this month, which contributed to an increase in GOPPAR (Gross Operating Profit per Available Room) of 20.5% as performance in the Hungarian capital goes from strength to strength, according to the latest data from HotStats.
Senior Living benefits from the rebound from downsizing. Many Senior Living communities are like resort properties with condos, bungalows and golf. But, they are also a sign of our mortality, this particular phase of our lives. A bit like a hotel, but many of us would rather be somewhere else. So, how do you market your offerings to those prospects?
According to hoteliers who participated in the survey for The 2015 Smart Decision Guide to Hospitality Revenue Management, the top challenges include selecting the right technology solution, hiring the right talent (e.g., revenue managers with the requisite skills and experience to do the job) and engaging the right revenue management consulting services, for those companies that wish to outsource the function or leverage third-party expertise to enhance their in-house capabilities.
Total nonfarm payroll employment increased by 142,000 in September, and the unemployment rate was unchanged at 5.1 percent. Job gains occurred in health care and information, while mining employment fell.
Opening weekend matches were held 18-20 September, and during that three-day period, each of the four markets to host a match averaged year-over-year RevPAR increases of higher than 25.0%: Cardiff, Wales (+148.5%); Gloucester, England (+37.4%); Brighton, England (+28.2%); and London, England (+27.0%).
In year-over-year measurements, the industry's occupancy increased 2.3% to 70.3%. Average daily rate for the week was up 4.9% to US$122.56. Revenue per available room increased 7.2% to finish the week at US$86.17.

Book: The Snow Child
by Eowyn Ivey
Recommended by: Karen, Senior Librarian

Combining the Russian fable "Little Daughter of the Snow" with a time and location of 1920's Alaska, "The Snow Child" is an enchanting read.
