What Is Responsible for the Strange Post Office Rammings? Al Qaeda or Alzheimers?
The Florida Postal Service has made an unusual request of their local patronage — to stop running into their Post Offices with their autos. There have recently been eight crashes supposedly due to 'old timers' tapping the gas pedal instead of the brake.
Unbeknownst to the Postal authorities, there is an FBI scan that has tied the incidents to Florida Al Qaeda operatives who are dispatching suicide bombers to take out the facilities.
Unfortunately for them, their bomb parts were sent by mail from Saudi Arabia and didn't arrive in time for their missions.
The bombers were forced to hit their targets without their bombs, a move that probably lost them at least 40 of their 76 virgins in the after life.
A second possibility that Federal agents are investigating is that some of the crashers were actually laid off Postal workers going postal in a new way. They may be taking a cue from Al Qaeda and attempting to try suicide explosives as a way of venting their grievances permanently.
Unfortunately, they ordered their bomb parts with next day delivery by UPS and also came up empty handed when the parcels came in the day after their spectacle.
More new developments will be posted as they occur.
NEW DEVELOPMENT: Since the news has been leaked of the FBI findings that Al Qaeda is behind the Post Office crashes, senior citizens out of boredom have been racing to Post Offices to see the fireworks, and are themselves crashing into the facilities.
Authorities are recommending that the elderly stay at home, hide under their tables and do as they are told.

On Thursday, Acorn -- which sells products on television, much like a Chinese version of QVC or Home Shopping Network, as well as through catalogs and other outlets -- received a massive 31% boost to end the day at $5.34. Shares in the company had jumped after coverage was initiated on the company by Roth Capital with a buy rating, allowing it to top New York Stock Exchange's list of biggest advancers on Thursday. But the company is currently off 3.5% Friday morning to $5.15. Acorn sells about 700 products, including cell phones, health and wellness products, household and beauty and stock tracking software. -- Reported by Jeanine Poggi in New York Follow TheStreet.com on Twitter and become a fan on Facebook.

Much awaited sequel in Tollywood is falling on wheels to take off from the last 2 years. Post delivering a blockbuster with 'Gabbar Singh', Powerstar Pawan Kalyan handpicked director Sampath Nandi to direct a sequel for this flick. Since two years, brainstorming and gossiping are happening around this hyped sequel but nothing never really materialized solidly. Though media was informed that GS2 will be started soon, the film hasn't really reached sets. Neither a heroine is zeroed on, nor Pawan Kalyan is ready for the shoot. So what is really happening with the movie?
'Gabbar Singh 2 shooting will be started from November. Pawan Kalyan sir asked me to prepare shoot schedules for a non-stop shooting. And we have to still zero on a heroine', says director Sampath Nandi, exuding confidence that all those 'delaying' days are finally over. Of course, so many dates are rolled earlier for GS2's shooting, but none got really materialized. In between Sampath became busy with Gaalipatam movie and is heard burning hands. Let us see if November holds good at least.

The ever reliable Avery Guerra tipped me off that eccentric Z-grade filmmaker Ted V. Mikels (The Corpse Grinders, The Astro-Zombies, The Girl with Gold Boots) has a new fright flick coming down the pike called Demon Haunt.
Here's the synopsis courtesy of Ted V. Mikels' personal website.
"Evil entities have occupied a residence newly acquired by a lovely school teacher and her handicapped younger sister, to wreak havoc and terror, and bring bloodshed to any who may occupy the dwelling. Called upon to cleanse the home of the demonic entities is Raymond LeCleur, an expert in the use of ESP and the paranormal, who is extremely reluctant to come out of self-imposed retirement to aid the women, but feels compelled to battle the demons on their behalf. With the assistance of his estranged father, now a priest, Raymond battles fiercely for his own life in the cleansing."
A trailer for Mikel's latest low budget opus and though chock full of low rent computer animation, there's just something admirable about its cheapness. It certainly looks more ambitious than a lot of the low budget junk that comes along these days. Give the trailer a look. If nothing else, watching the trailer for Demon Haunt will be the most gleefully cheesy two-minutes of your day.
Mikels' website also reports a third installment of The Astro-Zombies is in the planning stages.

As more and more distributed applications are taking advantage of scale-out architectures, application architectures themselves are transforming. Big Data is one of the most recognizable in this new breed of applications, but the ideal network to support Big Data applications is not the one that has been around for decades. New requirements for Big Data require the next generation of data fabrics.
In an upcoming DemoFriday™ on October 24, Plexxi will demonstrate how to build a Big Data fabric that is scalable, manageable, and integrated with surrounding systems like OpenStack and Cloudera, which produces enterprise data hubs built on Apache Hadoop.
While the rise of Big Data offers incredible opportunities, it can still pose real challenges to networks today. Join Ed Henry of Plexxi product management and Nils Swart of Plexxi business development as they talk about how to overcome those challenges and show:
- Big Data fabric setup, including application and tenant performance requirements
- Automated VLAN provisioning using OpenStack
- Dynamic rack awareness
- Node visualization
- Cloudera integration
- Live fabric utilization heat map to identify congestion
Not all applications are the same, and not all resources can be neatly tucked into a few adjacent racks. The network needs to account for differences in requirements and data locality, especially as the scale-out nature of next-generation apps also extends to clustered compute and storage systems.
Sign up to join us for the DemoFriday™ with Plexxi to learn about how the next generation of Big Data fabrics provides availability, consistency, awareness, and other critical Big Data requirements. We'll webcast live on Friday, October 24 at 10:00 a.m. PDT.
This DemoFriday has already occurred. You may view the archived assets here.

When you have a younger sister with ever so slight tendencies toward insanity, see if you can focus on something else!—Colin Lark, concerning his sister
Raelyn 'Rae' Lark is the sister of Scimitar medic Colin Lark.
- Species: Human/Kiffar mix primarily, with a few others thrown in somewhere along the line
- Sex: Female
- Age: 21
- Alignment: Neutral
- Weapons/Equipment:
- long, very sharp dagger
- Specialist Skills/Knowledge:
- Melee combat skills – If you see someone wearing a knife on her belt, you gotta assume she can use it.
- Hand to hand combat – Though it won't be evident until later, Raelyn can easily outmatch her brother.
- Primary Role Player: Writer
The records on Raelyn Lark are just as phony as her brother's and they're just as simple. Raelyn was identified as a genius at pre-school age. But even classes for advanced-students fell beneath her level and any attempt at education bored her. She read massive amounts of books and seemed to literally absorb the information into her brain. At ten years of age, she dropped out of school and opted to remain home until she was of an age where she could get a job. But she never got that far.
When Colin started his college courses, Raelyn went with him. It nearly drove him mad that she could answer the questions immediately after they were asked when he struggled, but in return for his allowing her to follow him around, she helped him study. When he went into his residency, she took to staying home, but when he finally quit his job, she rejoined him in traveling.
Though she agrees it was for the best that they ended Colin's previous contract when they did, Raelyn hates Bryndar and is actively trying to find transportation offworld.
Personality and Traits
At times, Raelyn can seem overly friendly... and she knows far more than she ought to due to her telepathy. But she sometimes forgets that it isn't exactly 'galactic normal' for people to be able to read other peoples' minds, and that can get her into trouble.
On the flip side, she has her bouts of random insecurity and violent emotions. To put it bluntly, Raelyn Lark is hard to read. And it never helps when she starts muttering things in languages no one has ever heard...
The Truth
As far as species, age, equipment, and skills go, the records for Raelyn Lark are accurate. Everything else is complete fiction, added to the galactic databases by 'Raelyn' in an attempt to keep herself and her brother out of the Empire's eyes. The true facts are as follows, for the crew of the Scimitar will eventually learn of it.
- Name: Katrine West
True History: Katrine, called Kate by her family seemed to grow up far too quickly. At two years of age, she could speak in almost complete sentences. By four, she was doing her fourteen year old brother's school homework. A visit from her great-grandmother revealed the truth: Kate was a telepath and she subconsciously pulled the correct answers for her brother's homework out of his head. Now aware of this ability, little Kate wanted to learn exactly what she could do with it.
At eight years old, Kate was quite the little troublemaker, often planting suggestions in her parents' heads to get away with things no child ought to. On one occasion, she stayed away from home for three weeks, until she was brought home forcefully by Imperials who'd found her trying to persuade a guard to let her in to meet the Emperor. Her parents insisted they'd dropped her off at her grandmother's.
It was her brother Aidan who finally realized what she was doing, as he had not been near enough to be under her influence. The eighteen-year-old had begun studying at a university halfway around Coruscant, and he returned home to find his parents and his little sister insisting that she'd been at her grandmother's. He scolded his sister profusely for her little stunt and that affected her far more than her parents confused arguing. She apologized and promised never to do it again. And for a week or two, she held to her promise. Then, little suggestions began slipping in here and there. Soon, she was back at it... and that's exactly what the Empire wanted to see.
Katrine's recruitment was subtle. Shortly after her tenth birthday, she was offered a spot in an elite school for the brightest students and, though Kate was only the brightest because she could read the teacher's mind, she jumped at the chance to learn something new from the mind of any brilliant teacher she could find. With a little subtle persuasion on her part, Kate's parents agreed and what Kate calls the 'Empire Days' began.
Right from the start, the 'school' was nothing like Kate expected. They tested her telepathic abilities to the limit and when they had stretched her as much as they could there, they probed other areas of her brain. In doing so, they discovered her telekinetic abilities and worked to stretch her there as well. Kate tried to get a message out, or to escape, but they kept her heavily drugged when they weren't testing her strength. Gradually, they began trying to brainwash her and for a time, it seemed to work.
When she turned eighteen, Kate's trainers presented her with a uniform all her own, pure black, with a tiny insignia on it, reserved for high ranking Imperial spies. They told her that she was ideal for any form of deployment, as she could not be injured if she was expecting any sort of attack, and she could penetrate any defenses thanks to the telepathy. Then, she was given a mission and she accepted it.
Katrine West was never seen again. The records on her were changed, both images and ages were altered to show a different person entirely. Those who trained her were just as deceived as the rest of the galaxy, for she altered her appearance and mannerisms in their minds as well.
She stole her brother out of his Imperial doctoring job and they went on the run together as Colin and Raelyn Lark. In the official records for Aidan and Katrine West, it states that the siblings were caught, tried, and executed by Imperial firing squad. Case closed.

Hacker exposes pacemaker security flaws that allows deadly shock
Jack shared minimal details of his research at the BreakPoint security conference in Melbourne, Australia, this week. Jack, whose previous work, including exposing flaws in ATMs and car security, has been well publicized in detail, held back information in this case due to the severity of such a hack.
According to reports from Melbourne, Jack said such attacks were as good as "anonymous assassination" and could result in "mass murder."
The wireless attack allows access to pacemakers within 30 feet and rewrites their firmware. The specific pacemakers explored contained a "secret function" that could be used to activate all pacemakers and implantable cardioverter-defibrillators.
The security holes would allow for the medical devices to be turned off or sent 830 volts, inducing cardiac arrest or delivering shocks in loops.
Worse yet, the malware could be set to spread from pacemaker to pacemaker once ID numbers of the devices were obtained.
Jack did not release the brand of pacemaker he worked on. He believes the pacemaker's designer need to take responsibility for the flaws, claiming fail safes are not being engineered in as they should.
What do you think? Is this an extreme example of wireless security flaws or poor medical device design decisions? Could this present a possible larger security breach, for example, allowing attacks on national leaders who use pacemakers? Share your thoughts below.

Rittz Top of the Line Cover Art Revealed
Rittz revealed the cover art (above) to Top of the Line which drops May 6th. According to the XXl Magizine exclusive the cover art has a 70's or 80's movie poster feel with Rittz being the star attraction. Rittz talked about Top of the Line in an interview with NE Hip Hop in August of last year. He stated "I'm waiting on the rest of the production. The way I like to get it is I like to get all my beats together and I can hear the beats and go 'ok this is classic' or 'this is the sound that I want.' Right now I got a guy in Germany names Heartbeatz who's been making a lot of dope tracks. So I reached out to Seven from Strange and I think once Seven sends the tracks in, it's going to be well-rounded and I can start writing on it…With Strange, your album's gotta come out when it's marketable and around every other artist…I'm just really going to try and rap my ass off on there and show you why I'm top of the line."
You can watch the whole NE Hip Hop interview below. The part where he discusses Top of the Line starts at 8:14. Though you may want to watch to whole thing, if you missed it. The beginning has some interesting Gathering stories from the 16th Gathering. He also broke down how the Yelawolf LAF remix collaboration came about.

Bellagio Review
Right from the exterior with the grand
fountain display, the Bellagio Hotel and Casino sets the scene for a
high-class experience. This premier resort is among the best and
brightest the Strip has to offer, featuring Tuscan-style interiors,
spacious rooms and suites, and first-class dining and entertainment.
Suites At Bellagio
There are several guest suites that range in size from 853 to 4075 square feet. All suites have a formal floor plan that includes a foyer, a sitting area, multi-line telephone and speaker, twice daily housekeeping, whirlpool tub and spectacular views.
Check out The Bellagio's suites: Bellagio One Bedroom Suites & Bellagio Two Bedroom Suites.
Although the Bellagio is expansive in size, you'll never have to walk far to grab a bite to eat, or more likely a gourmet prix-fixe menu to tempt your appetite. The Bellagio Buffet regularly garners the best reviews of its kind. Even finer dining can be had at Le Cirque, twin to the legendary New York-based French restaurant. Celebrity chef aficionados will love the fine Italian food at Todd English's Olives and top-quality seafood at Michael Mina Bellagio.
Once you're properly fed, try an indulgence of a different kind by hitting the theatre to check out "O", a Cirque de Soleil production. Although the tasting menu and multiple cocktails you just enjoyed may have felt like an accomplishment, you'll still find yourself impressed by the aquatic exploits of these multi-talented acrobats, dancers, and synchronized swimmers.
Entertainment & Nightlife
As at all of the best Vegas casinos, everything is better at night. Perhaps the most well-known of the Bellagio clubs, The Bank is among the best places to see and be seen in the hotel. This popular celeb hangout features a three-tiered floor plan with ample VIP seating and a revolving cast of DJs and beautiful people to keep the party going.
Those looking for a more low key time will still have plenty of ways
to keep busy. A stroll through the famed Conservatory and Botanical
Gardens or the Gallery of Fine Art will inject a touch of culture to
your trip in between bouts of gambling and spending. If it's just
the gambling you want a break from, take a tour through the Via
Bellagio shops, where you'll find Chanel, Armani, and Tiffany & Co.
outposts to help you get properly dressed for another night on the
If you'd rather the party slowed down instead of stopping completely, visit one of the Bellagio's many bars and lounges. The Fontana Bar keeps things exciting with live music and an expansive dance floor, as well as a knockout view of the fountains outside. If you prefer your lighting low, décor muted, and cocktails creative and delicious, be sure to stop in at Caramel, a luxurious lounge.

I have "buckteeth"... They are not as bad as they might sound, Yes they get in the way sometimes, It's a love hate relationship between my teeth and I. I tend not too smile with my teeth because I feel people might look. I need opinions on wether or not I look unattractive. I have no desire to get braces.
This is me, my family tells me that it's unique and cute, but i'd like to hear from people who are not my family. I've had boyfriends but they never said anything about my teeth! Thanks for your time.
Most Helpful Guy
They are very cute on you11|00|0
Thanks for MH
You don't really have buck teeth as they don't rest on your lip when your mouth is closed. I, however, do have them and I've known guys who are MAJOR attracted to buck teeth. Of course that's something I'd more likely to find. I suck my thumb so there's no way I'd even consider braces. Love who you are and then others will be accepting.
Most Helpful Girl
I have those but people call em beaver teeth or bunny teeth where I am from. I love em. I notices a lot of aspects of my body are big. Big teeth, feet, lips, etc21|10|0
Haha problem is i'm a very small girl, standing at 5"0 and a small frame my teeth are my biggest asset.

What we do › Fishing for our future › Aquaculture - what we do › Fish food for thought
Published - 24/02/2010
MCS Aquaculture Office, Dawn Purchase, has told the EU Fisheries Commission in Brussels that environmental sustainability is not a barrier to industry growth.
"A growing population of increasingly environmentally-aware seafood consumers creates the opportunity for the continued development of innovative, healthy seafood products in an environmentally, and therefore financially sustainable European industry."
Dawn was among a group of guest speakers and MEP's at a hearing on the Development of the Sustainable European Aquaculture industry, where questions were raised about the sustainability and the amount of wild fish needed to feed farmed fish.
She responded to a suggestion about the possibility of farming 'vegetarian fish, that have no requirement for this type of feed'. She told the meeting that UK retailers find it hard to convince consumers to eat fish like carp, but that encouraging celebrity chefs to use them could stimulate demand.
Dawn says she was delighted to be involved "MCS was the only NGO on the panel of experts invited to speak, and we welcomed the opportunity to represent the needs of the marine environment and concerned seafood consumers in the development of the future EU aquaculture industry."
The public hearing agreed the industry has to guarantee quality and also win political support. The discussion was part of the Milana report on the future development of European aquaculture, which will be put to a Fisheries Committee vote in April.

I know that alot of fans thought season 2 was the slowest, most uneventful season of the series.
I don't understand why I'm thinking about LOST after just waking up and why season 2 was the thing I was thinking of, but oh well. I was thinking that without season 2's button pushing maniacs the whole idea of Jughead possibly bringing our '77 Losties home to 2008 may not have existed. Because without the button pushing, we may not have found out about the Pearl and then seeing just exactly how much force the Swan had when the electromagnetic anomaly was released.
I can't think of any OTHER why to introduce one of the most interesting antagonist to ever appear on TV without Ben Linus's possible screw up in getting trapped in Roussous net trap and having us believe that he was this random guy who crashed on the island before the plane; obviously we now know that he is just a big liar and to me that is one of the most interesting character setups I've ever seen.
Season 2 was to me obviously one of the weaker seasons of the show, but it did help create the idea of what the Dharma Initiative was really about, it helped set-up the rivalry between The Others and the losties, it started the idea for the Egyptian side story about the island's early history.
Season 2 was the definitive season of LOST and I believe without it we wouldn't be where we are today, or yesterday, or tomorrow....OR WHERE EVER THE HELL WE ARE!!!

The ex-Real Madrid striker and Brazil legend believes the Wales international will get along fine with his new Portuguese team-mate following a world-record move to the Bernabeu
The 24-year-old joined the Santiago Bernabeu outfit for a world-record fee of £86 million in the summer transfer window - a sum that eclipsed the money spent by Madrid in buying Ronaldo from Manchester United in 2009.
|Gareth Bale is 66/1 with BetVictor to be La Liga's top scorer
"I believe that these two players will do very well at Madrid and form a fine partnership," Ronaldo told AS.
"Cristiano and Bale will make the Madrid fans happy. They will triumph together and the fans will enjoy their partnership.
"They will do some great things together and I have no doubt that they will get along just fine. Great players always understand each other. The Madrid faithful are in for a treat."
Bale, who scored 21 goals in 33 Premier League appearances last season, could make his official Madrid debut at the weekend away against Villarreal.

an apology in peaches and raspberries
So to everyone in the Northeast: I'm really, really sorry.
Consider the following recipe a peace offering. I know it won't make up for the heat, but it might make it a little more bearable.
Does anyone have any advice on how to un-displease weather gods?
Poached Peaches with Raspberries and Basil
This makes for a good weekend breakfast, or a light dessert.
(Serves one)
Take one ripe peach or nectarine, skin it, and cut it into slices. Put the slices in a small saucepan with just a little sugar - a teaspoon or two - and cover with water. Bring to a low simmer and cook until the peach is soft.
Add a generous handful of raspberries to the pan. Cook until the mixture is tinted pink and you can smell both the peach and the raspberries.
Remove the pan from heat, and add a few torn leaves of fresh basil. Transfer the mixture to a big bowl and allow it to cool. Serve at room temperature, or chill further in the fridge.
Serve with thick Greek yogurt, fresh ricotta, or mascarpone.

I finally made this, though for me it was less about the peaches than the black raspberries and the whole-milk yogurt. The peaches and yogurt were from the Amherst Farmers' Market; the berries I'd picked wild and stored in my freezer.
Anyway, I just had it for dinner, and it was delectable and gorgeous. I love what the raspberry juice does to the color of the peaches. They almost glow.

Arby's Put on Auction Block
Wendy's/Arby's Group Inc. plans to slice away the Arby's sandwich chain by putting it up for sale.
The move represents a concession by activist investor Nelson Peltz that Arby's, known for its roast beef sandwiches, is having trouble competing in an industry where the only viable ways to grow are to steal market share from rivals or expand overseas—two things Wendy's is better positioned than Arby's to accomplish.

Thane: Days after the metropolis saw its first successful heart transplant in 47 years, second such surgery was performed at a private hospital here today after traffic authorities created a 'green corridor' to transport a live heart from Vashi in Navi Mumbai.
A 19 km stretch from Vashi's MGM Hospital to Fortis Hospital in suburban Mulund was converted into a 'green corridor' (where all traffic lights are kept green and a lane is cleared of vehicles) to allow hassle-free transport of a live heart in an ambulance.
Beginning its journey at 10.26 am, the heart was transported within 14 minutes with the help of traffic authorities and medical teams. The key organ reached Fortis Hospital at Mulund at 10.40 am and the surgery was performed.
Received from a 63-year-old donor admitted at MGM Hospital, the heart was retrieved at 10.07 am to be transplanted into a 29-year-old recipient suffering from cardiomyopathy (a condition where heart muscle is abnormal).
Sukhmeet Sandhu, Regional Director, Fortis Healthcare (Region – West & East), said, "It is extremely heartening to see the city's second heart transplant in less than a week. I congratulate the medical teams and traffic authorities both at Vashi and Mulund for saving a valuable life."
S Narayani, Zonal Director, Fortis Hospital, said, "We want to further the cause of organ donation by creating awareness and saving as many lives as possible."
Anvay Mulay, Head of Cardiac Surgery, Fortis Hospital said, "We have concluded the surgery and the patient is under continuous observation for the next 24-48 hours."
On August 4, the financial capital recorded its first successful heart transplant in 47 years when a live heart was flown in from Pune in a chartered flight and taken to Fortis Hospital through a green corridor.
The heart came from a 42-year-old donor in Pune's Jehangir Hospital and was transplanted into a 22-year-old recipient.

Places to die and sleep, and "the forces of conservatism"BMJ 1999; 319 doi: https://doi.org/10.1136/bmj.319.7223.0a (Published 04 December 1999) Cite this as: BMJ 1999;319:a

Where to die, where to sleep? Tentative answers to these paraShakespearean questions are offered in this week's journal. Most people in Britain want to die at home, and carers are more likely to say that the place of death was right if the patient dies at home. Yet only about a quarter of people die at home. That is why "hospital at home" schemes have been developed—to try to help more people to die at home But do they work? Gunn Grande and others have tried to do a randomised controlled trial to answer …

Love It or Hate It? Garden Hose Gun
The Garden Gun 5.1 designed by the Design Reaktor Berlin is deliberately ironic and playful, seeing as water is the source of all life. I can see children and grownups alike having fun with it, emulating action figures or Angelina Jolie in Mr. and Mrs. Smith on their suburban lawns. Do you think it sends the wrong message or is it just fun and games?Source


text: Europe buys one-quarter of its total natural gas from Russia, and despite recent geopolitical tension, ratings agency Fitch believes it will not shake that dependence for the foreseeable future. "Any attempt to improve energy security by reducing European reliance on Russia would require either a significant reduction in overall gas demand or a big increase in alternative sources of supply, but neither of these appears likely," a recent report from Fitch states. The agency also notes in the report that restructuring Europe's current natural gas infrastructure to make it less dependent on a few sources would cost close to 200 billion euros. Analysts thus do not see that as a likely outcome. And though the International Energy Agency places the continent's natural gas in shale reserves at approximately 13 trillion cubic meters, public sentiment and governmental regulations are both against fracking. Supply troubles Europe does produce some of its own natural gas, but those sources don't come close to breaking the continent's dependence on Russian gas. Exports from Norway are expected to recede by the early 2020s, according to The Wall Street Journal, and although the Netherlands and the UK provide some natural gas to the rest of Europe, neither produces enough to help the continent achieve energy independence from Russia. Some have looked to the US as an alternate supplier given the natural gas boom in that country, but export restrictions and the high associated costs even without those restrictions mean that US gas is not a likely solution either. Meanwhile, sanctions on Russia have prompted analysts and investors to fear the country may block some or all of its natural gas exports to Europe, threatening a serious supply shortage. That's worrisome as Fitch's report shows that Europe will not be able to replace Russian natural gas should the ex-Soviet nation decide to cut Europe off.

("Non-Vegan 'Food' & Child Pornography: A former victim of child sexual abuse makes a screaming plea for help")
Link to part 4 of 5: http://allsentientsfeelpain.blogspot.com/2009/12/part-4-veganism_4246.html
If you also want to advocate veganism by comparing child porn and non-vegan food, I won't be offended by this, even if you were never sexually abused. In fact, I will be honoured if you make this comparison. If the pain I went through can help stop someone else's pain, then it will be worth it. Clouds rarely come with pre-packaged silver linings. We need to draw our own silver linings in life, and this article I have written is my attempt to draw mine. By using the child porn analogy you will help make my silver lining even bigger; and the more people who use it, the bigger it will be, until perhaps it will become a giant mass of beauty glowing so brightly the cloud at the center is barely even visible.

This is the commemorative 100th Article of my (Red VS Blue's) timeline Superpowers. It marks an important milestone in the development of my timeline and so is dedicated both to its past achievements and those still yet to come. Rightfully, or perhaps ironically enough today is September 4th, the very same day that the Western Roman Empire of Our world fell and Europe is regarded to have entered into the Dark Ages. I hope that all you readers have been enjoying my timeline thus far, and that you will all continue to enjoy it for a long time to come.
As of September 4 Superpowers is approximately 1650 KB long (not including pictures).
Superpowers Thus Far
As of today I've nearly completed the Timeline up until the intended year of 2000 AD, there are only 11 years to go. All of that is peanuts compared to the 1,820 years that this timeline spans. It all began with the first point of divergence when the Roman Emperor Marcus Aurelius adopted a certain Greek boy from Athens as the successor to the Imperial Roman throne. This prevented his other son Commodus from taking power and having his unpopular reign that led to a civil war. In its stead the Roman Empire continues a period that modern historians referred to as the years of the Good Emperors. In this timeline six more Good Emperors succeed Aurelius and the Roman Empire is brought to the position of the most powerful nation in the world.
The world of Superpowers expands further when a certain Mayan intellectual discovers the formula for gunpowder, and invents the wooden wheel. That same man uses his intelligence to unite the Mayan city-states into a mighty Conglomerate, thereby creating the largest nation that had ever existed on his native continent. This Mayan Conglomerate grows into the most advanced nation on the planet, and was the only country in the world that had the technology and size to challenge the Roman Empire. At the same time that those two behemoths began their conflict, the third and final point of divergence emerged in the plains of Mongolia. The Mongol Chieftain Temujin manages to fight off a raid by the Merkits, one which nearly got his wife kidnapped. Because of this, when their son Jochi is born, his parentage is unquestionable and he is made undisputed leader of the Mongols once his father has died.
The extent that the timeline covers already is extensive. Already 5 modern nations have their own article, providing information on their government, economy, demographics and culture in great detail. The crowning jewel of these of course is the Roman Empire. It contains nearly 75,000 bytes of data, 10 pictures (including maps) and provides extensive details of that nation and links to relevant articles. It is, I'll admit, probably my favorite article on the whole timeline. Hours upon hours of research were put into it, especially the government section, and it has probably undergone more revisions than any of my other articles.
Next to the pages on modern nations are the eight military articles that discuss the entire Roman Armed Forces, and parts of the military of other nations. I want to extend thanks to the users Vegas Addict and Eastward Expansion for writing the Nippon Kaigun and Ongtsegheon articles respectively. After those pages there are also nearly a dozen pages covering advances in science and technology, as well as the incursions into outer space made in the timeline. Finally, though there's a lot more, I'd like to mention the 26 canon articles that go into greater detail on the events of the timeline, all the way up to the 2000th year of the city of Rome. On that note, the next thing I'd like to mention to you readers is the continuation of the Detailed Timeline.
The Future of Superpowers
Given the complexity of events that I'm now working with in the Superpowers timeline, I've decided that it is best to switch to a different format of continuing the story. Since the progress of civilization has always been defined by its wars, I'll use articles dedicated to these wars, and their intervening years of peace, to further tell the story in details. I'll be starting this part of the project with the Two Hundred Years' War. The slight overlap of 26 years that it has with the last of the 26 timeline articles will be used to ease in the transition and hopefully get readers accustomed to the new format.
That is only part of the news that I've got for you all though. In light of all the work I've been putting into Superpowers I intend to, in the far future, write literature based on the timeline. To get myself prepared for that, once I finish the timeline I will continue my work on it on this site by writing stories that take place in the timeline. I don't have any (well, maybe one or two) specific plans for what these story lines will be per say, so I look to you the community for suggestions. If there's any part of Superpowers that you think is particularly interesting, or could make a good setting for a story, just write out your idea on this here talk page and once I get to writing, I just might take up your idea.
There is one story however which I do fully intend to tell and that is the tale of what happens from the year 2000 to 2010. I'm not going to spoil anything just yet, but I'll leave you all with this. It's big. Really big.
Also in the near future I have plans to finish up writing all the nation pages and their militaries, complete my descriptions of the culture and sciences in Superpowers and finally, as an idea given to me by Eastward Expansion, make a page that talks about potential "alternate" alternate histories within the timeline.
I look forward to the continuation of my timeline, and I begrudgingly admit to and assure you all that what happens there is always as much a surprise to me as it is to you.
The Writing of Superpowers
Although a writer never reveals his tricks (or was that magicians...) I've decided to give you all some insight into the process of how I write the timeline. First there are the pictures, and do I ever love pictures in a timeline. Nearly all of the pictures that get added to the timeline undergo a slight editing process to distinguish their depiction from OTL. They are however to be taken with a grain of salt and only be viewed as a representation of the Superpowers world, not necessarily an exact copy. For instance, the Ahau Tower, which is shown by images of the Eiffel Tower, would not look exactly like that, only similar. Regardless of the slight paradoxes that this seems to suggest, I add these pictures with the intent of better immersing readers into the story. One image though that I can assure you looks in this timeline exactly as the image shows is the one to the right. It perfectly represents how this world, whilst almost completely different to our own, still retains a few aspects and trends that make our world what it is.
As for how I actually write the timeline, much as how I'm writing this, its in such a way that I would hardly call professional. There's no pre-planning, draft writing or anything of the sort. I just pick an article I want to write, or I've started writing, open up a few internet articles or books I think might be helpful, and just start writing. Embarrassingly though, once I've started writing, what I initially put down is usually the final copy. I rarely look over my work or spell check it myself, and for the articles that I have gone over and improved, I did it several months after first posting them. As I mentioned, the same thing goes for this article, so if you see any mistakes you can leave them and I'll get to them sometime in January, I promise.

Other Works Here
This is for the works here that were either inspiring in some way or I consider to be very good and can remember off the top of my head.
- Ætas ab Brian - It was the first timeline I saw on this site and inspired me to start writing here
- Aztec Empire - It is a fascinating timeline and helped to encourage me to keep working on expanding me timeline
- 1983: Doomsday - I greatly respect the work put into it by its community, and am grateful for its role in keeping writers on the site (providing readers for my timeline :P )
- Chaos - It remains one of the few timelines that I estimate to be larger than Superpowers in terms of file size
- French Trafalgar, British Waterloo - It is another fine timeline, and also gave me the idea of creating a Portal Page for Superpowers
- Vegetarian World - Although I personally don't like the timeline, it's another timeline that beats mine in size and gave me the idea of writing a 100th Article
Special Thanks
- First I'd like to especially mention the 2009 novel Lustrum and thank its author Robert Harris. His work is of some of the highest quality I've ever seen, and has not only better immersed me in the society of Ancient Rome, but also inspired me to seriously consider the idea of writing stories.
- Finally, I'd like to especially thank the general and statesman Gaius Julius Caesar, for providing the impetus and cause for the creation of the Roman Empire, and ultimately shaping the modern Western society that we live in. For all of his faults and vices, I still think he is one of the greatest and most influential men to have ever lived.

These photos are of a sinkhole that occurred in Guatemala . The hole swallowed 2 dozen homes and killed at least 3 people.
The most astounding of all holes has been discovered in the United States of America. It swallows trillions of U.S. dollars annually. The money that falls into this hole is never heard from again. It is reputed to be filled with at least 535 'little holes' as well. As more information becomes available about this incredible phenomena, we will be sure to report it.

It is hard to believe that less than a century ago, windshields were offered as optional equipment. In 1909, Henry Ford offered his Model T with a windshield. Today, glazing continues to play an important part in vehicle design, providing a combination of aesthetic, functional and structural properties. As a result, automakers are increasingly looking for their glazing suppliers to play a key role in the vehicle development process. Matthew Beecham reports.
