Introducing Exotic Skins From Robert August
We are excited to be announcing such an important milestone for Robert August! We've teamed up with one of the bests skin processors in Europe to offer genuine exotic skins in our Made-to-Order program, including Alligator, Python and Ostrich skins.
That's right! Genuine leather skins, painted by hand at our factory, matching our painted calf base colors.
Genuine Alligator Skin
"Alligator mississippiensis" skin renders a very attractive and fashionable leather. The leather is strong, supple, durable and very expensive. A bony layer within the skin adds a protective shield, while a dimple on each scale makes a very exotic look.
Hailing from the Southeast USA and frequently harvested from farm-bred gators as well as from wild animals, American alligator skin is a classic, durable and versatile leather. The American alligator's hide is the soft and more pliable material. This is because the skin of this reptile is less bony than the skin of crocodiles. This softness makes the alligator's skin easier to work with than the skin of other reptiles, making it perfect to work with for cutting, stitching and folding.
Genuine Ostrich Skin
Ostrich leather is one of the worlds finest and most durable leathers. It's a luxurious leather well known for its softness, flexibility and durability. In spite of its softness, Ostrich leather is unsurpassed for its tactile strength. It is, in fact, one of the strongest leathers available. Naturally occurring oils in the leather contribute to its durability, preventing cracking, even under extreme temperatures and sun exposure.
The main distinguishing feature of ostrich leather is the quill or feather socket markings. The "full quill" area of the leather is the most sought after and therefore the most expensive type of ostrich leather. The quill pattern is the result of large follicles which each contained a feather.
Genuine Python Skin
Snakeskins have always been very desirable for shoes because of the unique grain, scales, and color patterns. Snakes are skinned in two ways, cut down the belly scales leaving the small scales in the center, "belly" or "front" cut python, and cut down the back leaving the wide belly scale in the center, called "back" cut python. We use the "front" cut python.
The scales were the snakes protection from the elements and are essentially like a callous, dead skin. The size of the scale will vary depending upon the area of the skin cut. The scales have a "lip" open toward the tail that will grab and aid the snake in crawling. This lip is your assurance that the snake is genuine.
Animal Welfare Information
We source Exotic Skins from a processor that uses sound animal husbandry and humane animal treatment / slaughtering practices whether farmed, domesticated, or wild (managed). Also, leather suppliers must screen tanning processes against the LWG Protocol to ensure adherence to best environmental practices (https://leatherworkinggroup.com).
Artisan Hand Painting & Hand Cutting
Please, bear in mind, that each of individual skin is completely unique, our images and 3D textures are shown for illustration purposes only. Our artisans will hand paint and hand cut each shoe piece as per your request. Also, our hand cutting artisans will arrange the cutting patterns on the leather based on their own experience and craftsmanship. Please, understand that due to the above, there might be differences in scale pattern, size and tone between two different cuts.
Available Styles & Updates
Exotic skins are available on Goodyear Welted shoes only. We are rolling out this new feature on our 4 most iconic styles: Double Monk, Oxford, Chukka Boot and Chelsea Boot. All men dress styles will be available for exotic skin production on the following weeks. Stay tuned!

There's no question about it that the effects of unrelieved pain take their toll on the individual, on any individual. Some of the adverse effects of pain are functional decline, complications of immobility, skin breakdown, infections. But not only can pain lead to these health and safety problems for a resident. But it certainly significantly affects an individual's quality of life as well. Pain is tightly linked to depression and diminish self confidence and self esteem and also with an increase in behavior problems particularly for cognitively impaired residents. Read this expert information provided by our expert in a long term care conference to know more.
For these residents whose quality of life has already been significantly disrupted enough to have to live in a nursing home at least on a temporary basis if not long-term. This further decline in quality of life can be just devastating to them. And of course, for the facility, the result can be significant survey, deficiencies and quality of life and quality of care tags and also some very costly time consuming litigation these days.
Our expert mentioned in a long term care conference that pain is measured on a quality measure and the quality indicator. Quality indicators are used for the survey purpose for quality measure report that is posted on the internet for the public to see. If the pain is not being well controlled in your facility compared to pain control in facilities throughout your state, then consumers are going to be able to see that.
On the Nursing Home Compare website at the Medicare.gov. And so, obviously, that's not a good thing. It's not a good thing for the residents. But it's certainly not a good thing for this facility either.
The studies indicate the prevalence of pain among nursing home residents is as high as 83%. As for 45% to 80% of those residents substantial pain goes untreated. And also 41% of residents assessed to have pain are in persistent severe pain at the next assessment.
And the thing that really is sort of shocking is that in a full 90% of those cases, the pain could have been relieved by conventional treatment.
In light of these statistics, it's no surprise to learn then that pain is significantly under reported in nursing. And the pain management often seems to be sort of a hit and miss process despite an increased emphasis on pain management in recent years.
Studies found that CNAs accurately spot pain in their residents only 1/3 of the time. And that residents in CNAs disagree on pain assessments 62% of the time.
And some of the research that underlies the MDS3.0, the new version of the MDS really emphasizes significant research in this area that shows that even cognitively impaired residents, most of them can tell us about their pain as well as some other things like depression and some other things.
And so the emphasis is moving more and more towards resident interview about pain as opposed to using mainly observation of the residents to determine whether or not there's pain. And of course, there are significant challenges in assessing pain in cognitively impaired residents.
You can implement some really good programs following the long term care guidelines. But if you're not monitoring the outcomes to make sure that you're getting the quality that you're shooting for, chances are that it's and going to be as effective as you intended it to be over time.

Ambitious and captivating; expansive, textured and unique, this is the sound of Herd.
Since we began our record label, like the radio show and blog from which it spawned, we've never been just one style, one sound.
Since 2007 via several net based labels, Herd has worked on a multi-part series of Tangents – abstract experimental electro, ambient electronica and drone soundscape material. Arteater continues in that vein of sonic tapestry, yet is very much its own complete piece. Herd's influence is drawn from many places, most obviously that of Future Sound of London. Impressed enough were they the duo have released material of his via their own FSOLdigital imprint.
Pushing the limits of vinyl recording length we cut close to 20 minutes a side of sound without comprising on quality. We work closely with our mastering and cutting engineers, none more so than on this release.
We could continue writing fancy, descriptive words, but as with all our releases, we let our music do the talking, and there's a lot to hear in this one.

Ayesha Takia to make TV debut
Ayesha Takia on vanishing from B-town and making her debut as a TV show host.tv Updated: Sep 06, 2012 19:32 IST
Ayesha Takia on vanishing from B-town and making her debut as a TV show host.
Why did you choose to make a comeback as a TV host (with Sur Kshetra)?
It's an exciting project, with contestants from India and Pakistan, and a never-before-seen jury that comprises legends like Asha Bhosle, Abida Parveen and Runa Laila. I was nervous as I had never hosted a show before. But Boneyji (Kapoor) and Gajji(producer Gajendra Singh) convinced me. I have been in front of a camera since I was four years old, so it's easy for me to act. But TV hosts have to prod people, handle things when needed and think on their feet, while as actors, we are led around. I am not great in awkward situations, but I'm glad I managed well.
There's always the baggage of tension — political and religious — between India and Pakistan. You're Hindu by birth, married to a Muslim (Farhan Azmi) and hosting a show with Indians and Pakistanis. Was it tough?
Ashaji asked me about it once. I told her that we are a mixed family with people from all religions and communities. Our outlook towards people isn't based on their religion. That's why I could marry outside and yet, remain myself. It makes me realise how I never notice this(Hindu-Muslim religious difference); it's what people talk about before anything else. It creates negativity and widens the gap (between India and Pakistan), not giving the people a chance (towards peace).
You disappeared after a hit like Wanted (2008). Why?
I am a content person and not overambitious.For me to get out of my comfort zone,I need a project that works for me.I am fussy about my roles. Someone from Bollywood once told me, 'I wish you weren't such a happy and content person'. I tell people I am happy. I couldn't care less. I don't want to just stand around looking pretty in the background. I would rather sit at home, put oil in my hair, sip tea and gossip. I make different choices than what's expected of me.
You are involved in your husband's business too.
Our boutique hotel is almost ready and I am decorating all the 10 rooms in different themes. Working with him was fascinating.

I don't remember too much of my freshman orientation. It was both four years ago and, well, let's just leave it at it being four years ago. And yet I have the distinct displeasure of vividly remembering one particular orientation session led by two faculty members, which was attended by what appeared to be a large percentage of the freshman class.
We were bombarded with empty rhetoric on tradition, education, exploration, success and a smattering of buzzwords best left for corporate America. Then, one of the session leaders posed such a nauseating question that I knew, from that point on, I'd have to be killed three times over to ever rinse it from memory: "How many of you think you're special?"
"Raise your hand if you think you're special." He was serious. Several students raised their hands — many presumably had the gall to think about it. He reassured the remaining pupils in the auditorium that we were all special, which naturally stroked our vulnerable freshman egos, and thus the brainwashing merrily continued.
But for the duration of the assembly I wanted to vomit. Then I wanted to burst into fits of hysterical laughter. Then I wanted to cut loose and walk out. But I was seated in the front row, and that would have been impolite. So I composed myself and wept internally.
The word "special" has become a recursive incantation of educators, parents, Lady Gaga and the Disney Channel. Its use is hijacked daily by doting mothers and fathers whenever some devilish impulse compels them to describe their children in Faberge detail, which happens all but too infrequently for my patience. Children are taught from an early age that they can do anything, be anything and — most criminally — have everything.
They all get older, but they don't grow up. They all think they're special.
Well, let me tell you who's special: Oprah Winfrey, Nelson Mandela and Malala Yousafzai to name a few. And how many times do you think any of these international role models were ever told they were special growing up? Was it the one raised in the backwoods of Mississippi in abject poverty? Was it the one molested by relatives? Or was it the one who, at just 14 years old, prematurely bore a son who died in infancy?
Pardon me, those all referred to Oprah. But I'd be hard-pressed to find someone who didn't think Nelson Mandela's 27 years in prison or Malala Yousafzai's gun wound to the face ever made either of them feel special.
No, I am convinced the word "special" and the sentiment behind it should be reserved for individuals who do something extraordinary with their lives. I would not award anyone's life the accolade of being considered extraordinary unless I changed my personal definition of the word to include anyone who accomplishes a feat that's concomitantly achieved by approximately 14,000 separate individuals, which just so happens to be the total number of undergraduates matriculating at Ivy League institutions each and every year.
There's a difference between being special and being privileged, lucky and intelligent. But it's a difference that becomes muddled in the Ivy League, where apparently students are not only taught that they're special but also inculcated with this idea from day negative one of their freshman year.
With class sizes of well over 1,000, we cannot possibly all be special. We cannot all become president of the United States. We cannot all win a Nobel Prize. We cannot all ascend to CEO of a Fortune 500 company, cure cancer, eradicate poverty, summer with royalty, get away with using the word "summer" as a verb, be the face of a new political movement (how many can possibly be left?), make $1 billion or — preferably — inherit $1 billion. Nor can we all be the underdog from Louisville, Kentucky, who becomes an instant star-spangled American hero after intercepting a homebound nuclear missile with a makeshift slingshot.
We all have dreams. And we all bring them with us to college. Some of them will come to fruition, but many will be crushed. Or more palatably put, "reevaluated."
One can argue college affords you time to figure out who you are as a person and what you want to do with the rest of your life. But one can argue more logically that college offers you four full years to figure out who you aren't and what you will likely never become. That's what makes college so brutally efficient.
I'm choosing to take a realistic approach to the disquieting, nagging truth that we've all become so expert at avoiding: reality.
I know you're not supposed to say this, but there's nothing wrong with putting your dreams on the permanent back burner. There's nothing wrong with ending the pursuit of something that's been the source of so much strife, frustration and unfulfillment. In other words, there's nothing wrong with challenging yourself just a little bit less and accepting the truth that perhaps you just aren't the kind of special you were led to believe.
I recognize that saying this is also unpatriotic — it agitates the very notion of the American dream: Work hard and prosper. Well, I'd like to ask our nation's leaders to define "prosper" and then define for whom. Lest we want to send every discontented, disillusioned Ivy League student into a stunted state of academic paralysis and depression — whoops!
Too late.

BEIJING (Sputnik) – Hong Kong commercial banks have been forced to impose strict restrictions on foreign companies, including Russian ones, in an effort to minimize risks to themselves amid Western economic sanctions, Russian Consul General to Hong Kong Alexander Kozlov told Sputnik.
"The main difficulty that has emerged in the last few years is the opening and maintenance of bank accounts. Not only our companies are facing this issue, but we are also aware of similar difficulties other countries have, and Hong Kong residents themselves… The vast majority of banks operating here are Western ones or have very close ties with the West. Commercial banks often apply the strictest restrictions in order to minimize their risks in terms of various sanctions regimes", Kozlov said.
According to Kozlov, there are no legal barriers to the work of Russian companies in Hong Kong, whose favourable business environment, low taxes, and transparent judicial and legal system are attractive for Russian businesses.

The statement comes after a publishment of a new bill targeting Russia with additional sanctions in February. The bill, reportedly called "Defending American Security from Kremlin Aggression Act of 2019" (DASKAA), targets multiple sectors of the Russian economy and imposes a ban on operations with Russian sovereign debt.
In addition to sovereign debt, the legislation targets Russia's banking sector, LNG projects, IT, and shipbuilding, along with Russian politicians and businessmen.
The bill follows numerous rounds of US sanctions against Russia introduced since 2014 over different issues, accusing Moscow of interfering in Ukraine's internal affairs, as well as the American presidential election in 2016, alleged use of chemical weapons against Russian former intelligence officer Sergei Skripal and his daughter Yulia in the UK city of Salisbury and over the Kerch Strait incident.

What is today breakdown going to be about? Well I am glad you ask! RWBY is today main topic, and boy let me tell you how excited I am to talk about this series. Some of you are probably thinking … well how is it even yuri related ( I said this in a different voice) well my yuri friends bare with me, because I promise I will explain how RWBY is related to yuri. In this break down I am going to talk about the following topics, the plot, the characters, the animation, the yuri, and of course give my overall thoughts.
Please note the following breakdown will have a crap load of SPOILERS! So proceed with very very carefully! On that note I would like to remind you that this breakdown will be based off my opinion for the most part. Remember whatever doesn't come out of my mouth will be sourced.
The Plot
Season 1: A young hero, an exalted heiress, a troubled rogue, and a party girl. These are the four members of RWBY, a team brought together and trained for the sole purpose of combating the rampant evils that plague the fantastic world of Remnant. Ruby Rose is a young girl who has just been accepted to Beacon Academy. This school was founded to train the monster-slayers known as Huntsmen and Huntresses. However, Ruby will not be alone. Upon arriving at Beacon, she is promptly paired with Weiss Schnee, Blake Belladonna, and her sister, Yang Xiao Long. If these four girls want to graduate they'll have to learn to work together both on the battlefield and in the classroom.
Season 2: Team RWBY is back and ready for their second semester at Beacon, an academy that trains the world's strongest fighters. But real life doesn't stop there. Between classes and homework, they still have to find time to save the world. And between the White Fang, Roman Torchwick, and the emergence of a mysterious new trio, they certainly have their work cut out for them!
Season 3: The Vytal Festival Tournament is the ultimate battle of skill, pitting the world's most powerful Huntsmen and Huntresses in training against one another… and it's finally here! Ruby, Weiss, Blake, and Yang are back for a tournament full of over-the-top action, and they're not alone. New fighters from around Remnant are ready to bring glory to their own kingdoms, but there are those among them with a far more sinister goal in mind, that will change the world of Remnant forever and leave nothing the same again…
Season 4: It's been several months since the Fall of Beacon, and the world of Remnant is still recovering. Tensions are high, lives have been lost, and the members of Team RWBY… are divided. Each of our heroines now faces a journey of their own. While some must search inward if they ever hope to move on, others will venture out into the world in search of answers. Alongside the remaining members of Team JNPR, Ruby Rose has begun the long trek to the kingdom of Mistral, but the road ahead is full of surprises. New friends and enemies await, while the threat of an even larger catastrophe draws near.
Season 5: Ruby, Weiss, Blake, and Yang are each entangled in journeys of their own, but they all share one destination: Haven Academy. Whether it's the promise of ancient relics, mystical maidens, or simply more power, it's clear that the stage for the next great battle for Remnant has been chosen. The question is, with so many players in this game, who's going to come out on top? (Source all plot summaries come from TvTropes)
Where do I even begin, because Rwby plot is so damn awesome, and there is so much to talk about. Basically the series follows four cute girls name Ruby Weiss, Blake, and Yang.Each of the following characters mentioned have their own weapon, and powers. The four girls all happen to attend Beacon Academy in the city of Vale, where they are trained to become Huntresses. A Huntresses is someone who hunt down Grimm a creature, or a monster of some sort that are describe as "creatures of destruction". While Ruby, Weiss, Blake, and Yang attend Beacon Academy they form team RWBY. Team RWBY end up going on a lot of crazy kick ass adventures that will leave you on the edge of the bed, or chair, whatever edge it may be wanting more. They also go on these adventures with team JNPR which include the following members Juane, Nora, Pyrhha, and Lie. Throughout the series the two teams encounter a lot obstacles they must overcome … like when Yang loses her arm, or when Pyrhha well I won't say what happens to Pyrhha, because that is a major spoiler. However, these obstacles rather they are big or small help each team grow to become stronger. I truly do love RWBY plot it is has everything I look for in a series. The plot of this series never bores me that is for sure.
The Characters
I am going to try, and not make this section so long, but I will not make any promises for I want to make sure you have al the information needed at hand. Definitely if you have not watched RWBY yet.
Ruby Rose is a former student of Beacon Academy and the main protagonist of RWBY. Ruby's weapon of choice is her High-Caliber Sniper-Scythe known as Crescent Rose.She first appeared in the "Red" Trailer visiting the grave of her deceased mother, Summer Rose. After an invitation from Headmaster Ozpin following an altercation with Roman Torchwick, Ruby attends Beacon Academy in order to become a Huntress. During her time at Beacon, she becomes the leader of Team RWBY, consisting of Weiss Schnee, Blake Belladonna and her half-sister,Yang Xiao Long. However, following the Fall of Beacon, Ruby travels to Haven Academy as a member of Team RNJR with the remaining members of Team JNPR. After the Battle of Haven, Team RWBY is reunited.
Ever since she was little, Ruby has had a romanticized view of the Huntsman profession. She is quick to reveal she wanted to become a Huntress in order to be like the great heroes in fairy tales, and she has described being one as far more "romantic" than being a police officer. Her mentality is described as "I don't have time for my emotions. I've gotta make sure that everybody else is okay."[9] She has also shown a distinct lack of ability picking up social cues due to being a very open and honest person. This results in her inability to pick up Weiss' sarcasm in the "The Shining Beacon" and her struggling to act formally in "It's Brawl in the Family". (Source Wiki Fandom)
Weiss Schnee
Monty Oum had said that everything has been decided for Weiss in her life, and because of it, she is a bit of a rebel. This manifests itself in her physical appearance as she wears her ponytail to the side of her head, disrupting the symmetry of the rest of her outfit. When Professor Port states that Weiss has received everything she wanted in life, she responds that it is not entirely true, thinking of her father's attitude. She takes pride in her name and the company, though, as seen when she first meets Blake Belladonna, when she discusses it with her team in Mountain Glenn and when she confronts her father over it.(Source Wiki Fandom)
Blake Belladonna
Blake Belladonna is a former student at Beacon Academy and one of the main protagonists of RWBY. Her weapon of choice is a Variant Ballistic Chain Scythe (VBCS) named Gambol Shroud. She first appeared in the "Black" Trailer alongside Adam Taurus, her then-boyfriend, partner and mentor in the White Fang, a Faunus terrorist group. After leaving the organization, Blake enrolled at Beacon Academy, where she becomes a member of Team RWBY alongside Ruby Rose, Weiss Schnee and Yang Xiao Long.
Blake is described as being "mellow" by her voice actress, Arryn Zech. She displays a cool, reserved, and serious personality most of the time but does not lack a humorous side usually in the form of dry wit and sarcasm. Blake is a righteous person, respecting other people's lives regardless of whether they are Faunus. She strongly despises those who judge and discriminate based on racial prejudice. Blake is outspoken, going so far as to indirectly insult the Schnee Dust Company in front of its heiress and defend Faunus of any kind.(Source Wiki Fandom)
Yang Xiao Long
Yang Xiao Long is a former student at Beacon Academy and one of the main protagonists of RWBY. Her weapons of choice are a pair of Dual Ranged Shot Gauntlets, Ember Celica. She made her first appearance in the "Yellow" Trailer, searching for clues regarding the whereabouts of her mother, who left her when she was very young. At Beacon, Yang becomes a member of Team RWBY alongside her younger half-sister Ruby Rose, Weiss Schnee and Blake Belladonna.
Yang's voice actress, Barbara Dunkelman, has said that when Yang's character was described to her, she was described as "the kind of person who would teach someone how to swim by pushing them in the water". This speaks volumes about how Yang approaches most things in life. She is very straightforward and confident. Yang is also described as being a cheerful, energetic and bright young lady. She is arguably the most flippant, carefree and adventurous member of her team, frequently making sarcastic comments and jokes even in the heat of battle and often taking combat and hostile situations lightly. Yang is very sociable and extroverted, even in unfamiliar situations. Yang's love of adventure is the main reason she decided to become a Huntress. Blake considers Yang the personification of the word "strength".(Source Wiki Fandom)
Team JNPR
JNPR (pronounced "Juniper") is a team of students from Beacon Academy. In "Players and Pieces", the team had its first fight together against a Death Stalker. Later in the same episode, the team was officially formed. During initiation, the team retrieved the White Rook pieces.After the death of their team member, Pyrrha Nikos in "End of the Beginning", the three remaining members continue to work together, along with Ruby Rose, the former team leader of the fractured Team RWBY, whom they also formed Team RNJR with. (Source Wiki Fandom)
Prepare yourself because RWBY has a lot of interesting characters you will meet throughout the series. However, the characters you will want to know the most about are on team RWBY, and team JNPR. The characters in this series are just fun. You either grow to love certain characters, or you absolutely despise certain characters. There really is no middle. The characters looks aren't that amazing, but do improve as each season progresses. I will talk more about the characters looks when we get to the animation section. Each character really does have a in depth story to tell definitely are four main girls Ruby, Weiss, Blake, and Yang. For example, we learn that Weiss may have a stuck up attitude, and a lot of family pride … she is actually very lonely. Ruby shows throughout the series that she sometimes indecisive, but at the end of the day she seems to make the right choices for the team. We discover with Blake that she has a very hard time being honest with her team, and friends, but as the series progress she learns that it is okay to rely on friends to an extent lol. Yang may be hot headed at times, but we also get to see the sweet caring side of Yang … definitely when it comes to Blake WINK WINK! Team JNPR add a great mix to the show as well I would highly recommend reading up on each of the characters in team JNPR.
The Animation
I can't tell you how long it took me to finally watch RWBY, because the animation is so shitty lmao. However, I will say as the seasons progress the animation has slowly gotten better, but man oh man it took a lot for me to get over the style of animation they used for RWBY. The 3d thing has never been a favorite of mine personally. I think it made the characters look like complete crap. I actually wished the characters look more like they do in the manga they have published. It would be much more appealing to the eyes. If the plot wasn't so damn good I wouldn't have kept with the series, because of the animation being that bad lol.
I will say though the fight scenes in are really well done, and honestly they really have improved a lot with the animation. I think if you are like me, and don't care for the 3d style animation you will get a kick out of the fight scenes. The fight scenes are very exciting, and thrilling.
The Yuri
Let me explain that RWBY is not labeled as a yuri yet … the yuri from this series comes from shipping, and fanfics. Popular ships like Ruby x Weiss, and my personal favorite is Yang x Blake. Fear not my yuri friends keep your goggles on for you will understand once you start watching RWBY why people ship are main gals together, or shipped them with other cuties in the series.
Their first interaction was in volume 1, chapter 3, where Yang wanted to help Ruby make new friends. Blake first seems to have no patience with the 2, only wanting to go back to being alone. Yang says that she's a "lost cause", although when they're picking partners, she seems happy to be Blake's partner. Even though Blake is known to be the cold and mysterious person in the team, Yang makes her smile on several occasions after they become partners.
In the episode Burning The Candle, Yang tries to get Blake to relax from investigating the White Fang and just attend the dance. She confronts her and actually got her to go after relating to her and showing her that she cares about her a lot.In the episode Heroes And Monsters, Yang chooses to go find Blake other than her missing sister. When she finds Blake, Adam says that he'll "Destroy everything that she(Blake) loves". Then when Yang arrives, he points at her saying "Starting with her". Blake then shows a horrified face, which confirms Adam's assumption. Yang get's angrier than she ever has in the entire series and get's her arm taken off when she recklessly charges in.

White Rose
Ruby bumps into Weiss, Making her drop her bags and dust, Weiss starts to complain about Ruby's carlessness then leaves after getting roasted by Blake. Then Ruby shouts "I Promise I'll make this up to you!" Later Ruby finds Yang and tells her about Weiss, Weiss walks up to Ruby and again complains, then hands her a Schnee Dust Company Panfelt. And tell Ruby "You really wanna start making this up to me? Read this and never talk to me again." At Night, Weiss again walks up to Ruby and complains about her being too loud and that people are trying to sleep.Later in the morning, Weiss becomes Ruby's Partner, which leads to Weiss saying "Does this by no means make us friends." And Ruby saying "You came back!" From walking away the first time, Picking Ruby over Jaune.
Weiss continues to call out Ruby for being too fast and messing up her attacks. While Ruby doubts if shes going the right way or not to the relics.Ruby convinces Weiss that Riding a Nevermore will be the quickest way to get to the relics. After they mount the Nevermore Weiss says "I told you this was a bad idea!"They find the relics and take down the Nevermore and a Deathstalker with help from Blake, Yang, Jaune, Pyrrha, Nora, And Ren. After team RWBY forms, Weiss has doubts about Ruby being the team leader, calls her out of it, and asks Port and Oz for advice. Later offers Ruby Coffee, and any help she needs. The finally start to become friends. (Source Wiki Volume 1)
Overall Thought
Besides the crappy animation RWBY is truly a magnificent series to watch if you can get past the animation, but I promise it is worth sucking it up, because the plot is so damn good, and intense. I probably binged watch RWBY in like two weeks, because I got so hooked. The plot isn't just darn right superb, but you get to meet so many cool characters that you never get bored with seeing the same characters over, and over because there are so many characters involved in this series. I am serious if you haven't watched RWBY I suggest you start now because season six is coming sometime in October my yuri friends, and trust me I am going to talk about it a lot.
Season 6 Summary
Ruby, Weiss, Blake, and Yang have been reunited and Team RWBY's first mission back is one of grave importance: escorting the Relic of Knowledge to Atlas. With Beacon fallen and Mistral compromised, Remnant's northernmost academy may now be the safest place in the world, but making it there will be more dangerous than anyone could have imagined.

Who else but Kirsten Dunst could star in the Rodarte sisters' trippy first film?
By Amy Larocca for NY Mag
Three great friends — the actress Kirsten Dunst and Laura and Kate Mulleavy, the fashion-designing wonder siblings behind the craft-meets-high-fashion line Rodarte — are sitting in a booth at Smoke House, an old-school Hollywood place with red leather booths and headshots on the wall just across from the Warner Bros. lot in the valley. They are discussing Woodshock, a dreamy, trippy feature film — a meditation on grief, destruction, and psychedelic drugs — that will be released September 22. The movie was written and directed by the Mulleavys; Dunst served as an executive producer and the film's star.
"We went on a trip to Florence together in about 2011," Laura says. The sisters had already drafted a short version of a script, "and we drank so much limoncello and we started talking about it."
"We're all so emotionally interconnected," Kate explains.
"I was the first actress to wear their clothes," says Dunst. "It was while I was doing press for Spider-Man, and it was this black dress with chains that it turns out were sewn by their mother, and they sent me a box of trinkets — we were all just so excited."
"Artistically, I think you just meet someone you're supposed to work with," Kate says. Both sisters are big talkers: articulate in describing their intentions and their art. Dunst is a bit more reserved. "Laura and I are a very internal network, so for me, writing a script, we didn't talk to anyone about it," says Kate. "So for us to sit down with Kirsten and say, 'Let's get through a really early state of something,' that was a big deal."

{ Special Sunday Dessert : aka SS Dessert }
Posted by Jamie
It's the first Sunday of the month & that means...a special dessert! This month it was Apple Crisp. I got the recipe from my sister, Ape. It's super easy & quick. This picture makes it look yellow & horrible {need new camera!} but trust me, in real life it was much more appetizing. And it was yummy! We ate it warm, of course, with ice cold milk. It's good with vanilla ice cream too.

As the rest of El Paso was taking it easy on their Saturday morning, nearly 800 motivated individuals ran, jumped and crawled through mud as part of the 5th Annual Old Ironsides Mud Challenge held here Saturday.
Hosted by Family and Morale, Welfare and Recreation's Sports, Fitness and Aquatics Department, the popular race has been growing each year with more participants, more obstacles and more mud. This year the course was more than five miles long and had 25 obstacles, not including the 18 that are part of the Air Assault Obstacle Course.
The race opened with some words of encouragement from Medal of Honor recipient retired Master Sgt. Leroy Petry, who gave an anecdote about a pen, tough obstacles in life and how you react. He instructed the Mud Challengers how to make the pen a breathing apparatus and "suck it up" when the course got difficult. The lighthearted words were a final send off before the participants took on the Mud Challenge.
As the race opened with John Williams' "Olympic Fanfare and Theme," Soldiers from the 127th Aviation Support Battalion, Combat Aviation Brigade, 1st Armored Division, led the charge.
"We've been getting great feedback. Everyone was loving it this year. The obstacles were challenging and very, very muddy this year," Tina Lozoya, race co-director, said. "We went and actually got dirt from another location to bring out there because our biggest complaint that we had in previous years was, it wasn't muddy enough."
The race was open to active-duty personnel, Department of Defense identification holders and civilians. The race was broken into three waves, leaving every hour starting at 9 a.m. Participants started at the Air Assault Obstacle Course, which was followed by additional challenges spread throughout the course. From young children to 10-man teams, the Mud Challenge welcomed all participants.
"The course has gotten longer, it's gotten harder and we put in more obstacles. It's grown every year," Lozoya said. "We built on it every year so attendance has grown."
Volunteers from the 127th ASB, CAB, 1st AD, instructors from the Air Assault School and personnel from MWR ensured the participants were completing each obstacle safely with water stations were spread across the course.
The course took runners through a series of wet, muddy and physical obstacles that the participants had to run, crawl or work together to overcome. This included crawling through pipes submerged in muddy water, taking a dip in a frigid waters and scaling eight-foot walls.
The runners cycled through clean, muddy and dirt encrusted clothes like a revolving door as they completed each obstacle the Mud Challenge had to offer. The first 500 people to complete the race received a Mud Challenge shirt to commemorate their experience.
"The participants this year were awesome, everyone had a really great time. We love seeing smiles coming across their faces, we love seeing the families doing it together," Lozoya said. "There's no way we could've done this without the support of 127th ASB, as well as our marketing, sponsorship and special events (sections) within the MWR. We all worked together as a team and we made it happen."

Dad's Favorite by Default
Hello, Simple Stories friends! It's Jana Eubank [1]. Today I'm using the Dad Life collection [2] to document my husband's relationship with our son.
My husband and son are the only boys in our family of six, which means they have to stick together! They often hang out together and have developed a special bond... do I dare say that my son has become "Dad's Favorite" by default?! This photo is a snapshot I took of them before heading out on a road trip together. It was the perfect opportunity to document their relationship!
I used the Snap Basics Aspen/White Notebook paper [3] for the background of this page. I love using this paper for layouts, especially when I have a lot of journaling to add. The journaling lines are built right in!
Sometimes it can be difficult to find a masculine collection to work with our photos about the boys and men in our lives. Dad Life [2] to the rescue! I love the colors of this collection [2] soooo much! The gray, slate blue, orange, yellow, and black are a nice change of pace and are just perfect for scrapbooking the guys.
I also really love all of the phrase stickers [2]! I couldn't resist adding them to the embellishment clusters at the top and right side of the page.
The rocket ship [2] is adorable, too! I added it to the top right corner of my photo, along with several hearts, stars, and phrase stickers. I die cut a few scribbly circle shapes to tuck behind the photo for an additional punch of black!
I love layering the stickers and elements together. Here I used the "#1 Dad" sticker [2] as the title for this page, and then added one of the 3x4 cards [2] next to it to act as a subtitle. I cut a piece of the plaid paper [2] in a strip and then trimmed the ends to look like washi tape to "hold down" the card. At the bottom of the card I popped up the sneaker sticker [2] on foam tape.
I'm so grateful that my husband and son are such great friends. It makes my heart smile every time they plan a trip or activity together. It's a relationship I am grateful to have captured and recorded on this page.

To most of us, automation in manufacturing is nothing new. However, it is often associated with state-of-the-art factories that produce the latest technology. Yet, automation is present in nearly all factories, at least to some extent. Some plants only have a single automated operation while others have completely automated their production lines. So, what exactly is automation? When is it useful? And, what are the forms? In this article, I will explain the different automation possibilities in manufacturing.
Automation in General
Automation is an automatically performed process by means of machinery with sensing and control devices. It is often applied to products which have standardized processing requirements. That is to say, products which are made repeatedly in the exact same manner. Automation has many advantages. For example, a constant level of quality and output. Moreover, it eliminates many worker problems such as boredom and labor complaints. However, there are also some disadvantages to automation. First of all, it can be quite expensive due to machinery and equipment. And, second of all, it is much less flexible than human labor. In manufacturing, there are three different forms of automation: programmable, fixed, and flexible automation.
Programmable Automation
Programmable automation is capable of producing a fairly wide variety of goods in small batches. The machinery involved constitutes general purpose equipment. Hence, the sequence of operations, and the details of each operation, can be modified for different products. The machines most frequently used for this type of automation are numerically controlled (N/C) machines, and robots.
N/C Machines (aka CNC)
N/C machines can be programmed to follow a set of processing instructions. For example, cutting a piece of plastic or metal into a specific shape. N/C machines are very useful for items with a complex geometry, and where little to no variation is allowed in a physical dimension. Below is an example of different N/C machine used for different items.
Robots are also often used in manufacturing. Like, CNC machines, these robots are controlled by computers. Most industrial robots are stationary. Their movable arms can rotate in somewhat any position within a certain radius. Tasks performed by robots include welding, assembly, painting and many more. Of course, there is a great variety of robots out there. Some are only capable of following a simple set of instructions, while others are capable of thinking for themselves.
Fixed Automation
Fixed automation is used to process highly standardised goods in large quantities. This type of automation is characterized by highly specialized equipment. The sequence of operations is fixed, and processing variety is minimal. Machines frequently used by this type of process are automatic assembly machines and transfer lines. Because commands are often programmed and embedded in the machine itself, it is fairly difficult to change a machine's intended purpose. Hence the word fixed automation.
Automatic Assembly Machine
Automatic assembly machines are designed to assemble a specific component/product. They are especially useful for plastic and metal parts as well as plastic moldings. Basic requirements for this type of automation are stable designs and high production volumes i.e. several hundred units per hour. Some of the greatest advantages of an AA machines is that it reduces the number of assembly stations needed and lowers tooling costs.
Transfer Line
A transfer lines is an automatic material handling system. Meaning, items are automatically transported to different process stations. Transfer lines are used for all kinds of parts and components such as electronic parts and automotive parts. Items can be processed at the same speed or at different speeds.
Flexible Automation
Flexible automation is a descendant from programmable automation. However, this type of automation has more customized equipment than its predecessor. Therefore, this form can produce several different product variations consecutively. That is to say, products do not need to be identical to be produced during the same process. Due to this feature, changeover time is significantly reduced. To illustrate, programmable automation is only capable of producing one specific item at the time i.e. batch production. Whenever different items are to be produced, machines need to be re-programmed which is referred to as changeover time.
In Summary
In short, automation in manufacturing is a process which is automatically performed by means of machinery. There are three different forms of automation. Programmable, fixed, and flexible automation. Each type of automation has its own advantages for different purposes. The type of automation most suitable for you depends on the characteristics of your product, flexibility required and desired volume of output. Whichever option you choose, it is always wise to conduct an operations engineer before you commit yourself to a specific form.

By Gary "Crusty the Christian" Piper
On Friday August 12, 2016 along with my wife Patti, Bonnie and Jon Teeple we descended deep in the earth going where I've been before but probably should not have gone this time. We were on a tour of Tuckaleechee Caverns in Townsend, Tennessee. I say I probably should not have gone because of 4 blocked coronary arteries and 52% lung capacity due to pulmonary fibrosis and a very large number of steep stairways. The descent wasn't a problem for me but when we started back up things got very difficult for me. In fact 3 or 4 times I began to feel the beginning symptoms of an angina or heart attack. However keeping my concerns to myself I plugged away stopping to rest and catch my breath when I could. I had the capability of testing my oxygen level but decided not to because that would have told Patti I was having more trouble than she could already see I was having and probably would have gone ballistic on me and panicked. In retrospect Tuckaleechee Caverns is not for those with heart and pulmonary problems but WOW it was worth it!
I am not sure at what point I noticed a young couple (probably in the late twenties or early thirties following us but during one of my stops while everyone else walked past me those two stop and began looking around as if they were trying to go unnoticed. After that happened a few times I told them they didn't need to wait for me, they could go on, "We're okay," the man said, "we're in no hurry." A few times later I began to suspect they had picked up on the difficulties I was having and were shadowing me in case I began running into more trouble than I could handle. Perhaps one or both of them were members of the medical profession and had picked up on my struggle to breath, I thought to myself.
At one point our tour guide stopped for a few minutes and I lost track of them thinking they'd decided to go off on their own but a few minutes later after the group began walking again I noticed they once again following. By now I'd figured they were indeed shadowing me in case I did run into trouble and a few minutes later because of their presence I felt my fears began to ease and in spite of the continued chest pain and shortness of breath a feeling of peace began settling in. I was able to enjoy the tour of the cavern because I knew deep inside I was going to be okay. And more than that each time I glanced back and saw them the feeling of comfort increased.
Now as I think back on what happened while deep in the earth two things haunt me. Why did I wait until now to tell anyone what was happening to me and in me. And why didn't at some point on our way back to the surface did I not strike up a conversation with them. I am typically not a very good conversationalist when it comes to strangers but now as I look back something was telling me even though I didn't know them they were not really strangers. But what's just as strange Jon who talks to everyone didn't strike up a conversation with them either.
After the tour was over while sitting on a bench we watched as the couple walked up the stairs leading to the main level we waved and told them thank you they waved back and said it was okay. Seconds later they could not be found in the main level or the parking lot. It never occurred to me that they were no more than just two concerned strangers "Good Samaritans" ready to help me if the occasion arose, until this morning anyway. This morning while I was making the bed Patti asked me if I thought the entire incident was a little strange. Suddenly the word Angel flashed into my mind. Since then my mind has been racing, trying to remember if there were any more clues as to who they were or what they were but the only thing that resonates with me was they were always there, always waiting with us when I needed to stop and moving with us when I could go on again.
Over the years I've read stories of people who have had experiences with Angels and now I find myself telling of my own story. However, I need to say at this point I am not totally convinced it was a true encounter with Angels. Having said that I also need to tell you I consider myself an optimist therefore if there's a possibility keeping in mind, "Don't forget to show hospitality to strangers, for some who have done this have entertained angels without realizing it!" (Hebrews 13:2, NLT), they indeed were Angels until I prove to myself otherwise.
The dilemma facing me now is how can I prove or disprove to myself they were real Angels. Disproving something is easy, just refuse to believe and as long as you keep refusing to believe something eventually, to you at least that something will not exist even though it may indeed exist. And on the other side of that coin keep believing in something and it will become a reality to you even though it may not exist. Remember the "God is dead" movement a few years ago? Note, in response to that movement there has been a couple of movies suggesting that God is indeed very much alive and well.
My point is there is no real way of proving or disproving whether or not my mysterious Tuckaleechee Cave Angels were real or not. The end result of my investigation lie in my faith, based on scriptural and circumstantial evidence. First, does the bible reveal the existence of Angels? Yes, after doing a search in the New Living Translation of the bible there are 108 verse references to Angels.
Before going further I need to add one more thing. I thought perhaps there were in one of the pictures we took while down in the cave but no such luck. There is no proof they were ever there except their pictures that have been burned into our memories. Perhaps Bonnie has a picture of them on her phone. I'll check with her later.
The International Standard Bible Encyclopedia suggests that with Jesus' advent in the world the ministry of Angels has been limited; it does suggest however there is still work for Angels to do. "The visible activity of angels has come to an end, because their mediating work is done; Christ has founded the kingdom of the Spirit, and God's Spirit speaks directly to the spirit of man. This new and living way has been opened up to us by Jesus Christ, upon whom faith can yet behold the angels of God ascending and descending. Still they watch the lot of man, and rejoice in his salvation; still they join in the praise and adoration of God, the Lord of hosts, still can they be regarded as "ministering spirits sent forth to do service for the sake of them that shall inherit salvation."
"…still can they be regarded as 'ministering spirits sent forth to do service for the sake of them that shall inherit salvation.'" While this may not be scriptural I choose to see it as such, for me it is the "circumstantial proof" that seeds and is even now germinating in my spirit giving me permission to believe God did indeed send two Angels to minister to me and if necessary minster me back to health should something had terribly gone wrong. For me this is my first encounter with Angels and it will take me quite awhile to come to its full fruition. This is the first time God has visibly "had my back" His usual MO for me is in the stealth mode working behind the scenes.
As gravity of the experience begins to grow in my spirit its implications go far beyond just watching over me while I was doing something that was foolish for me to be doing in the first place. However, it further solidifies and deepens my belief not only in the providence of God but also extent to which He will go to ensure the plans he has for our lives will not be cut short either through our own foolishness or through circumstances beyond our control. I believe one of the reasons for my "now" belief in the truthfulness of our Angelic encounter (I say our encounter because Patti, Bonnie, Jon, and I because we all saw them and exchanged glances with them and gave them our thanks) is my ability to see the long term and lasting impact it will have on my faith journey. Perhaps it will impact the other three as it has mine.
Before I bring this part of my story to an end I need to say something further about my own personal belief in Angels. While my belief in "God's Angels" just went from "I'm pretty sure" they exist to "now I know they exist". At the same time I also believe in the existence of "God inspired" Angels, we refer to them as "Good Samaritans" people that seem to come out of nowhere help us out then all of a sudden go on their merry way. I remember one particular time in the summer of 1958 we were headed for Yellowstone Park. At one point the ball joint driver side of my dad's car broke and sent us careening into the oncoming lane. Luckily no cars were coming. After coming to a stop my dad retrieved the front wheel a few minutes later a Good Samaritan stopped and helped my dad "jury rig" the front wheel good enough to hobble into the next town where dad fixed it. There were two miracles that day, no oncoming cars and the arrival and help of a "God inspired Angel". Wait a minute now that I stop to think about it, maybe that Good Samaritan wasn't human after all. Now that's something to think about!
Even though I will be bringing this portion of my Angel story to an end there will no doubt be more to come because even though it seems as God touches us with a miracle then seemingly disappears until the next time whenever and wherever He touches our lives in one of His many different ways those touches will always ripple into and mold our lives far into the future.
Father God, I don't know the names of those two Angels who saw to my safety but I will always remember them. And I look forward to the day when I will get a chance to meet them either in this life when the need for them arises once more. I would say thank you but words at this point seem pointless and shallow. I love you Father.
P.S. God, I just have to say this, it sure would great to sit down with those two and have a nice conversation! But, I can wait if I need to. AMEN (again)!

Coal can be used as fuel in a turbine. This is a low-grade fuel comparing to other forms high-value fuel.
The cost of a turbine in the power plant is more important than the cost of fuel. So, whether to use coal as a fuel is a debating point.
As an engineering point of view, it is highly important to select the most suitable fuel. So, the machine will give its highest efficiency.
In a gas turbine, different types of fuels can be used to perform its operations.
You can also watch and Subscribe to our YouTube Channel for Engineering Educational Videos, by clicking here https://goo.gl/4jeDFu
I don't know diesel will use as fuel or not but coal may be used as a fuel in gas turbine plant. But it may contain as much as 20% of its weight of dirt in the form of ash.
In case the ash particles are allowed to pass through the turbine the latter's blades are likely to be blocked. It will damage the blade also.
Experiments with some success have already been conducted in England and the United States.
So, as to devise means by which ash in the coal has been removed or rendered innocuous by making it small enough to pass through the gas turbine.
Methods of Coal Ash Removal
For the removal of ash in coal, two methods have been used.
The first method employs suitable cleaning devices.
In the second method, the coal is burnt at such a higher temperature than the ash melts and flows down to the bottom of the combustion chamber from where it can be removed.
But in the second case, the removal of ash in coal is only 95% has been ensured. The rests 5% remains unremoved.
A suitable cleaner can be installed to remove this part or at least large sized particles in it, which would otherwise cause more damage to the gas turbine blades than small particles.
The presence of coal even minute traces of the large-sized particles in the combustion gases is harmful to the turbine blades.

Theres more to healthy sperm than having just a lot of sperm. Sperm concentration, along with fertility, speed, and morphology (their size and shape) are all involved in whether you have healthy sperm or not. Sperm motility is defined as the amount of sperm that are able to swim forward.
Healthy sperm have the motility needed to keep moving through the uterus to reach the fallopian tube and fertilize the egg.
The key ingredient of FertilAid is L-Carnitine; which is scientifically proven to improve sperm count and motility.
FertilAid has been shown, through independent, placebo-controlled clinical studies, to dramatically improve fertility and sperm health in men. The key finding from the study were that taking FertilAid for Men improved "total normal sperm motility", along with causing an increase in the amount of mobile sperm.

Just a bit of a warning, I think that's going to be this year's theme. I love breaking the "traditional" rules of fashion. I wear white year-round. Black and navy look pretty spectacular together. I love it when people mix prints! I'm looking forward to break every fashion myth (okay, maybe at one point it was true, but not anymore!) on this blog, starting with this look. It's a combination of boho and edgy, black, brown, and cream, and it's kinda sexy but also rugged. Oh, and hey, it's a short girl wearing a maxi dress that we also spotted at TeraniCouture.com! It's possible, guys. This gorgeous Cutout Maxi Dress is from Desired Attire. I was a little nervous getting it because I'm not sure how it would fit me, but it's actually made from pretty stretchy fabric. I'm usually a Medium in dresses and that's what I'm wearing here. I'm 5'4″ and with heels on, it's the perfect length. Use DENISE15 to get 15% off your Desired Attire order!

International showcase for emerging talent Fashion Scout, which takes place during London Fashion Week, has named Hong Kong-based fashion brand I-Am-Chen as winner of its spring/summer 2019 Merit Award, a talent initiative worth 20,000 pounds across three seasons.
In winning the Merit Award, I-Am-Chen, founded by designer Zhi Chen, will receive a fully sponsored catwalk show with Fashion Scout with space to host press and buyers.
Commenting on her win, Chen said in a press release: "I can't believe this actually happened! I had seven days to create samples before the final selection panel; I ran to the factory to start immediately after I heard from Fashion Scout that I got into the last round.
"Because we could not find anyone who was going to London from China to deliver the samples, I decided to fly in myself, keeping my fingers and toes crossed! I had such a great experience working with the Fashion Scout team last season as a winner for the Ones to Watch show and I am so excited about having my first individual show with Fashion Scout. It is going to be a 20+ look all knit spring/summer collection. I can't wait to present how far knit can go in the summer."
The brand, which has a colourful aesthetic, was chosen from hundreds of entrants by a judging panel including Martyn Roberts, Fashion Scout's founder and director, Ida Petersson, womenswear buying director at Browns and fashion stylist and show producer Joe Toronka.
Hong Kong-based I-Am-Chen wins Fashion Scout's Merit Award
On naming I-Am-Chen as the Merit Award winner, Roberts said: "We are extremely excited to award I-Am-Chen the Merit Award following their exceptional and well received collection as part of the AW18 One's To Watch Award at Fashion Scout.
"The brand was a easy decision for the judging panel to award Merit to, due to the eye catching colourways, intriguing knitting techniques and thought through design process. Fashion Scout are excited to give I-Am-Chen the opportunity to continue building the brand and profile here in London."
I-Am-Chen is now in its fourth season and has become known for its colourful and playful knitwear, inspired by the artworks of Alexander Calder and David Hockney. As well as being fun and light-hearted, Chen also showcases her technical skills using various knitting machines in her designs, as well as challenging the definition of knitting by exploiting the potentials of advanced machines, applying state-of-art techniques and using unconventional yarns, added the designer.
Chen is a graduate of Donghua University in Shanghai, and then continued her studies with a scholarship at Parsons School of Design in New York before completing a masters with distinction at the London College of Fashion. In 2014, Chen won the Young Emerging Designer Award by Shanghai Education Authority and was the winner of Fashion Scout's One's to Watch award in 2017. In addition, Chen is also a finalist for the 2018/19 International Woolmark Prize, which holds its final in February 2019.
The Merit Award was created in 2009 to support and develop new designer businesses on a global level, and the talent initiative has helped propel the careers of numerous designers including Eudon Choi, Roberts| Wood, David Koma, Hermione De Paula, Georgia Hardinge, Phoebe English, Katie Ann McGuian, and Edda.

Your stuff has changed my entire perspective of Instagram, marketing, emails and personality. Rabbit Hole is legit AF and had given me the courage to do what I want to do and not be sorry for it.
Rabbit Hole specifically has been helping me hone in on my focus and get past the bullshiz so I can do my thing. I've also felt less anxious about IG in general. Like followers and like and stuff I don't really care about much anymore.
So much where do I start....
* New connections with fabulous people who think like me
* Confidence in myself and my message
* Creation of my first online programme to help people define their relationship to alcohol
* The ability and guts to be real and not apologise for it
* 50 new email subscribers
* Creation of a regular email to subscribers
* Sharing of testimonials without feeling like I'm selling
* Passion for connecting with people and sharing how I can help them
* Feeling of doing something worthwhile instead of just sharing perfect photos
* Freedom from perfection to just be me
I love all I've learnt from you all.

Slumber Party 3
Published Oct 01, 2003This is music for many settings. Hung over afternoons spent lazing in bed, like the back porch harmonica-lovin' "Black Heart Road." Or for peering out the window on a muggy summer night, or even for gazing down the length of the bar, heavy blinking beneath a cold stare your only necessary accessory. This is sweet 60s handclappin' indie pop with quadruple girl melodies and airy harmonics accompanied by gentle, mellow drum strokes and breezy guitar strums. But these women aren't naive, they're mature and smart. The kind you look up to for their calm assured Nico-isms, not the gullible Sandra Dee you watched the school boys scheming over. Their sound is catchy and memorable without a trace of sugar, even on the synth-y "New Trouble," which reveals a slight sense of danceable sass before the modest but important organ sounds and laid back doot doo's bring the giggles back down to dreamland. This is a record that doesn't need to try too hard to impress you. If you like it, great, but if you don't, thats alright, you'll understand when you're older. (Kill Rock Stars)

Ryan is a character featured in Dying Light.
Events of Dying Light
He is a drug producer and dealer based out of the junkyard. He makes so-called 'insomnia pills' for Kadir "Rais" Suleiman and his gang, allowing them to stay awake for long periods of time. He previously used a runner named Asam to deliver lists of needed supplies to Aziz in the Black Serpent Bazaar, but Asam eventually stopped showing up and Ryan began pouring red smoke out of his shack.
Kyle Crane is approached by Blake at the Tower to investigate the smoke. Upon his arrival, Ryan provides Crane with an envelope and instructs him to deliver it to Aziz, thus initiating the Tunnel Vision quest. Aziz sends Crane to retrieve phenyl-nitrate from the wreckage of his courier's car. However, Crane instead takes the phenyl-nitrate to Aman at the Tower, who provides him with Dialovon to give to Ryan as a substitute. This will cause Rais' thugs to fall asleep rather than stay awake.
Crane returns to Ryan at the junkyard but finds him under siege by a rival gang. After wiping out the attackers, Crane gives Ryan the Dialovon, under the guise of it being phenyl-nitrate, and encourages Ryan to give up producing drugs and seek shelter at the Tower. Ryan states his intention of doing so, after producing his final batch.
He can later be found residing within the Tower.
