February: Pinterest Win or Fail?
So, yeah, I realize that this is the second month in a row that I've completed my decor/blog post for the month on the last day. In my defense, I totally had another one planned for this month that had to get put on the back burner thanks to the massive dumping of snow that we got a few weeks ago. We still have several inches of ice covering a portion of our carport. Ew.
Anyway, after being cooped up in the house for almost 2 weeks, we got to escape to Hobby Lobby and I got my craft on! Knowing I needed something simple and quick, I hit up Pinterest for "DIY Wall Art". I found this birch wall art tutorial. I looked over it a few times and decided that it would either turn out awesome or terrible (no in betweens with this one), but it's been forever since I've had the chance to paint, so why not?
I picked up my supplies yesterday (yeah, I know, procrastinator extraordinaire), and got to work as soon as I got home. I already had most of the paint, as well as masking tape. I got the canvas for 40% off thanks to my Hobby Lobby app (originally $19.99, paid $11.99), so all in all, this cost me less than $15 out of pocket!
I started by putting tape on randomly across the canvas. Since I have wider areas of the walls that I want to cover, I decided to go horizontal rather than vertical.
I like the blue that was used in the original, but in my imagination, if I'm going to be in a birch forest in springtime, it's going to be green. I had nearly the tint of green that I wanted, but not the shade, so I got mixing.
I love the swirls ^_^ They remind me of oil paintings I made in elementary school.
Then I filled in all of the negative space between what would soon be my branches. It took me a couple of coats, and I let it dry for 5-10 minutes between each coat. Then I let it dry overnight.
The next part was tricky for me. For some reason, I couldn't figure out which tape strips to remove first. If I did it over again, I would just use thicker tape. But I used what I had on hand, and I eventually figured it out (though thinking about it still makes my brain hurt).
Once I got the first set of "trees" untaped, I started with a layer of beige paint using the card trick. I had a feeling that it would give the trees more depth, reality, and character.
Once the beige was sufficiently dry, I added the black paint on top.
I continued until I had filled all of the tree spaces, letting it dry for 30 minutes or so before starting the next "layer" of trees.
And here is the finished product! I actually really like how it turned out. Unfortunately, in my last-minuteness, I forgot to get something to hang it with, so for now it's sitting on a shelf behind the couch -_- But that will be taken care of shortly! It's the perfect size for the wall space I wanted filled. Additionally, it was inexpensive, used stuff I already had on hand, was relatively easy, and made minimal mess. Personally, I'm calling this one a win! What do you think? Pinterest win or fail?

I LOVE it. It's beautiful! Definitely wouldn't be able to tell it was a DIY project.

Video: £60m University redevelopment plans launched – Land sell-offs to help raise funds, with Kop land being 'secured'
Wrexham Glyndwr University have today unveiled large scale plans for the future of its Wrexham campus – including redevelopments of the site and increasing the value of land owned by the university which will be sold off to help fund the campus works.
A public consultation has been launched that will be open for 28 days and residents and businesses are encouraged to share their views on the applications, which include the proposed sale of two pieces of land in Wrexham owned by the university in order to re-invest.
Speaking today, Professor Maria Hinfelaar, Vice-Chancellor of Wrexham Glyndwr University said: "The success of these planning applications is critical to the future of the university.
"We have worked closely with Wrexham County Borough Council as well as architects, surveyors, highways and environmental teams to develop these proposals. Our ambition is to be the learning gateway into Wrexham and to contribute more to our local community. To achieve this, we need to do more with the footprint that we have and future-proof our campuses.
"Students are at the centre of our strategy and we will enhance the student experience by providing an infrastructure that supports learning, with stimulating state-of-the-art facilities and the latest in building designs and technology.
"Our plans include a new engineering building that will support local business and gives our students access to modern, well-equipped workshops to prepare them for industry, new high quality student accommodation to attract a greater number of students to live and study in Wrexham and the redevelopment of Regent Street to further enhance its importance as an Art school of national standing whilst retaining a heritage building at the entrance to the town centre."
The most striking public change will be the creation of a new 'Learning Gateway Building' on the Mold Road entrance, along with new 'inner gateway' entrance. A new engineering building is proposed along with extension to the sports hall.
The University confirmed to us today that they will be acquiring the 'Wrexham Village' student flats, and will look to create a 'Phase 2' extension. Wrexham.com also queried the status of the land behind the Kop stand, and were told the University would be including that in the purchase.
The student accommodation to the north end of the campus will be replaced by new accommodation with the land sold off to a developer with the aim of providing around 400 'key worker apartments'.
The redevelopment of the campus will see new public realm areas created, with the aim of an 'attractive green campus' that is 'pedestrian and cycle friendly'.
The University owns and operates the Art College on Regent Street, and is proposing of demolishing the 'redundant outbuildings' that are not listed and will create a 107 bed student accommodation facility. The listed Art College building itself will be subject to much needed refurbishment and repair, along with the introduction of a 'publicly accessible space'.
Funding for the estimated £60 million worth of work is due to come from various sources, including the north east wales Growth Bid – but also the sell off of some of the land that the University owns.
Three sites up for disposal include the north end of the campus itself, a playing field on Holt Road and field on Gatewen Road. The University is placing the planning applications for each of these sites in at the same time as the campus developments, calling them 'enabling' developments. Land with outline planning approval for housing is worth considerably more than land without.
Earlier today Professor Maria Hinfelaar, the Vice-Chancellor and Chief Executive of Wrexham Glyndwr University, and David Elcock the University's Director of Finance ran through the plans – where we asked questions regarding the developments, the land sell off and the land behind the Racecourse Kop.
Our video of the presentation of plans this morning is below – when we ask about Holt Road engagement, the Kop land and funding 'Plan B'.
The public consultation will be open for 28 days and residents and businesses are being encouraged to share their views on the applications, which include the proposed sale of two pieces of land in Wrexham owned by the university in order to re-invest.
The 'portal' site is live on the Glyndwr University website here.
Summaries of each application are available to view Monday – Friday between 10am and 4pm at Wrexham Glyndwr University.

Hello, everyone and welcome to WednesdayBookClub. So within one day, I stepped on a mousetrap (A big one, too) got body checked by SisterJuggler for seats in a movie theater (It was literally only my family there, btw) and tweaked my wrist that night. Good times. Well, enough about me. Let's talk books.
About 60 percent into Truly Devious and feeling guilty about some emotions I had about a character. Also, I did see Into the Spiderverse with my family and in the end, isn't that just as important? I plan on reading all day when I get home, though and I might hit the comic book store next week.
What about you all? Anything good?

Yellowstone Park 7-14-12
Cloudy wind free days like today bring out mayflies big time. Now is the time to be on Fall River Basin streams, Slough Creek, Lamar River, Yellowstone River below the lake, and Lewis River Channel. Beula Lake is producing well with damselflies and speckled duns continuing to hatch and bring action. Pelican Creek opens for fishing tomorrow, but don't expect the number of cutts we had returning downstream back in the 1990s.

WAIT – Day 6
Yes, you are correct – I skipped day 5. For two reasons. One was that I overslept, that is my fault. The other is that it was a very cold & rainy morning. I won't exactly blame God, but He had a lot to do with it I'm sure. Yesterday I did come home and play tennis on the Wii, and got a decent workout out of that.
Today I'm working from home, so on my lunch break I took my walk. It's been getting cooler all day long, so it was in the upper 30's when I set out. I went my 1.5 miles today – I didn't have enough time on my lunch break to do the full 2.2.
I'd been dragging all morning, but when I got out and got my exercise, I began feeling much more alert and just generally better.
I believe I've decided to do my 2.2 mile walks on Friday afternoons and/or Saturday's. That is when I have the most time available, and more control over what part of the day I can actually take the time to do it.

The devil's in the detail in processing payroll
Using contractors as an alternative labour hire arrangement is common in Australian business and with this comes a certain diligence for your payroll team.
The ATO makes it quite clear that it is the business owner's responsibility to ensure payroll payments are compliant.
When a contractor issues an invoice with an ABN, it is the payer's obligation to make sure the ABN is valid and registered for GST. If when verifying the ABN and proves to be invalid, then the payer must withhold tax at the top rate.
If the contractor issues an invoice with GST included and has an invalid ABN or is not registered for GST, the ATO will disallow the claim for GST credit and potentially recover the amount, with interest.
We encourage your payroll team to have a process in place to check the ABN of every contractor invoice. The easiest way for them is to check is the Australian Business Register online.
As it is the obligation of the business owner to pay a correct contractor invoice, so is ensuring employer superannuation contribution payments are made to a complying fund. To meet the SGC requirements, ask your payroll team check Super Fund Lookup online.
Please contact Hall Chadwick for further assistance if needed 03 9820 6400.

Alternative Traditions Carry On--with Your Help
At its peak in the late 1800's, the Oneida Community in Oneida, New York had 200 members, a farm, a construction company, a school and a newspaper completely run by women. The Oneida communards were among the first supporters of Women's Liberation, and also advocated free love. Oneida women ran businesses and wore pants. Surviving as a group for over thirty years, they tried to créate a humane socialist society out of the capitalist society of their time. They took the job of creating social alternatives seriously and we can all learn from their early successes and failures. The Ann Arbor SUN also takes the job of creating stable alternatives seriously, now in 1974. It has taken hard work, heaps of time and energy to get even as far as we have today, but the results of this work can be feit all over town. After years of work by us and lots of other people around town, Ann Arbor has a S5 marijuana law, radicáis on city council, and one of the country "s most stable communities of food co-ops. free clinics, womens' organizations and people's culture.

The most popular spot is Italy and Great Brittain is second on the ranking. The USTOA confirmed Peru is becoming an increasingly popular destination for American tourist and the interest for the country as a vacation spot is still on the rise.
The survey also looked at broader tendencies withint the travel industry.

For much of the 20th century, the pharmacy was a community gathering place, dispensing medicine, advice, and even ice cream. Over time, pharmacies have evolved into mini department stores, and today they are expanding to offer patient care with in-store clinics.
It's clear that retail clinics have an important role to play as healthcare shifts from fee-based to value-based care—providing convenient care for patients in a low-cost setting is essential to controlling overall costs. Further, as evidenced by the CMS Final Notice distributed on April 7, 2014, the government strongly commented on their concerns regarding health plans using home assessments where "enrollee risk assessments were being used as a vehicle to collect diagnosis data for payment without providing treatment or follow-up care, and supported our proposal to exclude these diagnoses for risk adjustment purposes." CMS went on to state that although 2014 home assessments would be allowable for improvement to patient risk score accuracy adjustment, this policy was going to be under significant scrutiny the rest of this year and likely to incur material change in next year's dates of service. CMS very clearly stated in the February 21, 2014, Advance Notice their desire for these assessments to occur in a "clinical setting."
To meet the needs of health plan risk score accuracy and quality improvement while addressing enrollee preference of convenient evening and weekend health visits, retail clinics have become an excellent alternative to home assessments. Retail clinics such as Healthcare Clinic at select Walgreens are carefully providing the following value propositions in a burgeoning market:
Opportunity is knocking
The most obvious advantage for retail clinics is customer convenience. Being able to visit a clinician on their way to work, on their lunch hour, or over the weekend is critically important to busy professionals, families, and individual preference.
Since CMS has indicated their plans to take a critical look at diagnoses established during in-home Medicare Advantage patient risk assessments, retail clinics provide both patients and health plans an ideal, convenient alternative. In addition to the benefit of establishing diagnoses in a clinical setting, providers such as Healthcare Clinic at select Walgreens offer services such as vaccinations and biometric testing. They can also counsel patients on the need to refill prescriptions to close gaps in care and provide valuable patient education.
Retail clinics have the potential to improve access to care and care coordination for patients while supporting the healthcare system's move toward value-based care. By making preventive healthcare more convenient, including counseling for medication adherence and offering vaccinations, retail clinics promote wellness. By identifying gaps in care and working in tandem with primary care physicians, retail clinics can help with ongoing diagnoses confirmation of chronic conditions and help prevent hospital admissions or readmissions for patients with chronic disease—all while helping to close gaps in care and improve risk score accuracy.
Sophisticated analytics
To successfully serve patients, health plans, and other providers, retail clinics must have sophisticated assessment and communications systems. The most valuable system for retail clinicians is one that guides them through the encounter, ensuring the right questions are asked and no care gaps are missed. It should then allow them to create an electronic encounter summary for transmission to the patient's community of care providers and the health plan.
Ideally, those patient assessments should be driven by analytics. For example, all 400+ Healthcare Clinic at select Walgreens locations have Inovalon's ePASS® decision support platform available to leverage predictive analytics to give providers point-of-care insights into possible diagnoses and necessary care improvement. Studies have shown that data-driven assessments significantly improve risk score accuracy and patient quality outcomes as compared to those assessments that do not provide patient-specific actionable information. These data-driven assessments establish a new level of lower delivery cost, efficiency, thoroughness in documentation, evidence-based standards, and measureable impact, providing the ultimate combination of the right focus on the right issues for the right patients at the right time.

My Weekly Photo Challenge, Half and Half shows a man alone in the universe. Humble to the forces of mother nature. A man can make great things but, will always have to give in to the power of the unknown.
Weekly Photo Challenge – Scale
I like to scale things up when I'm in Paris. Just because of the fact that Paris is full of hidden treasures that are worth to take a closer look at.
I found this "beauty" in the streets of Belleville, an area in Paris located between 4 different districts: the 20th, 19th, 11th and 10th district. Belleville was formerly an independent town separated from Paris. The name Belleville means beautiful city. For now Belleville is an non touristic area, but I think that will change in a few years. That's because Belleville is an upcoming area with lots an lots of hidden treasures! I'll soon tell you more about the best places in Belleville.
Sweet dreams everyone or a really good morning ♥
Pyramide du Louvre, Paris.
Christmas markets, Paris.
Wow, it feels like yesterday that I told you my Christmas ball story, but it's really almost a year ago! Time flies so fast this year. Well, according to my friends, I say that every year but, this year is truly different ;) Even though I had to work a lot and started a new study, I tried to visit Paris as much as possible. When I had left Paris in December, I came back in April, followed by a trip in August and now I go again in December to enjoy a bit of the Christmas atmosphere. Unfortunately, I can't stay for long, but I'm busy with planning a new trip for the beginning of 2015 (that sounds so far away!)
Right, I was talking about the Christmas atmosphere because today (14/11/14) starts the Christmas market at the Champs-Elysées! Which is good news because that means the rest will follow! At the Christmas market at the Champs-Elysées are a lot of fun things to do and to buy and the Ferris wheel (Grande Roue) at the end is really a picture perfect. If you want to save some money, don't take it with you because it's hard to keep it in your wallet.
As I just said, the rest of the Christmas markets will follow, here are some important places and dates:
(For more information you can go to the official site of the Christmas markets in Paris for opening hours etc.)
15/11 – Christmas market St-Germain-des-Prés.
20/11 – Christmas market La Défense.
06/12 – Christmas market Montmartre.
12/12 – Christmas market Notre-Dame
13/12 – Christmas market Trocadéro/Eiffel Tower.
Besides this list of Christmas markets there are a lot of other places to find, hidden between the other Christmas craziness of Paris!

Assocation LE M.U.R. – Street Art in Paris
Alright street-art fans, time to pay attention!
As you may have noticed in all my previous posts, Paris is full of amazing street art. Most of the street art is illegal, but gladly, Paris is also a city with many legal places for artists to express them selves.
Le M.U.R is a great example of one of those places. (Don't confuse the name of this wall with the one in Montmartre 'Le mur des je t'aime') Le M.U.R is a concept conceived by the French artist Jean Faucheur. By means of great perseverance he managed to grab a piece of Paris, where each week a new artist may show his or her work.
It was a great honor to meet him in person while he was looking at one of the new art pieces on the wall. He told us so much about his work, about other street art in Paris and other information you can't find on the internet ;) For example: did you knew that many street art in Paris gets stolen? Such a same and a big scandal because street art is for everyone. Not only for the people who can't afford expensive artworks but also for the people like me, who enjoy all those unique pieces. How can I capture them for you…if they steal it from the wall?! The prices of the street art pieces are sometimes worth more than 50 thousand euros! Depending on the artists of course. But is doesn't matter how famous the artist is, street art is priceless.
If you are curious about all the artworks of Le M.U.R, you can go to:
http://lemur.asso.fr/ or buy their book called Le MUR, The Wall.
If you want to see Le M.U.R by yourself, here is the address:
107 Rue Oberkampf
75011 Paris
By the way: the wall gets painted on Saturday. If you get the chance it's definitely fun to have a chat with the artists! They love to talk about their work, really interesting to learn new artists!
Sweet dreams everyone or a really good morning ♥
Fabulous Fabric stores in Paris.
What time it is? Time to create our own stuff!
Yep that's right, the time has come for all the creative people in the world. Express yourself! You don't want to own the same pants as your teacher because they happened to be on sale. So, what can you do about it?
One word… DIY! Which means "do it yourself". There are countless ways to get inspired. For example: Pinterest is full of amazing DIY stuff, and I'm a big fan of it. While you're there, don't forget to check out the profile of myWorldofParis (and please subscribe)
I don't have patterns for you, but I do know some great fabric stores in Paris where you can buy the most fabulous fabrics you can think of. All those fabric stores are located in Montmartre and they are all next to each other. A bit competitive but oh so convenient for shopping. My mother had to drag me out of the store, otherwise I probably had spend the night over there ;)
A point of attention are the prices. I found a stunning fabric with birds and flowers…but it costed €40 per meter. Suddenly the fabric wasn't that pretty anymore, haha. If you don't want to spend a lot of money , pay attention to the quality of the fabric. When you're in doubt, don't hesitate to ask the staff about it. They are there to help you out. There are also special price-off-corners with last scraps of fabric or fabrics that don't belong to the regular assortment anymore. There is also plenty of choice with normal prices.
I'll give you one address, the rest you'll find automatically.

In Celebration of the Human Voice - The Essential Musical Instrument
Home | Doo Wop | Barbershop | World | Contemporary | Christian | Vocal Jazz | Choral | Christmas | Instructional | Arrangements
Haiku is a Japanese form of poetry comprised of three lines of five, seven, and five syllables. Jerry Estes has crafted a set of four short pieces set to original haiku... one for each season of the year. All are beautiful in their simplicity. Well suited for Orff accompaniment; bells and rhythm instrument parts are included in the publication. An outstanding learning and performing piece for 2-part choirs. A delicate melody swirls and twirls like drifting snow in this tasteful arrangement of a traditional Japanese school song "Yuki". The three short Japanese phrases (and several English words) are easy-to-learn and bring to mind icy images of wintertime. "Uji River" is the most unique multicultural piece you will sing this year. A primarily English text tells the spectacular story of an ancient Japanese fishing tradition on the Uji River. And a traditional Asian folk melody floats above a gentle koto-like piano. Magical for treble voices, and highly effective when TB singers sound like fishermen. Tsuki means "moon," and is one of just a few Japanese words sung in this pentatonic scale-based song. Other words describe the beauty of the Japanese moon throughout the year. A captivating and memorable piece.

They f*ck during a tennis match !
Last night, a tennis match of the first round of the Challenger of Sarasota, Florida, between the American Frances Tiafoe and her compatriot Mitchell Krueger, has been disturbed by the cries of a couple in full Frolic sexual. Indeed, in the middle of the second set, pronounced groans from a neighboring apartment, made themselves heard on the court. When ready to serve, Frances Tiafoe has caused General hilarity shouting: "but it can't be as good." While the pair continued its nocturnal activity, some parents have asked their children to ears. However, the match was played to its end with a victory of Frances Tiafoe 6 - 3, 6-2.

The covered passages of Paris are little worlds in itself and a distinguishing trademark of the city. They represent a typical feature of Parisian architecture with glass roofs connected to the adjacent buildings so that the underneath space can accommodate shops, restaurants, and parlors. A walk through these covered passages is like stepping back in time 100 years back and witnessing the life of Paris.
These passages have everything under their roofs like some unique shops and restaurants. Visiting the various covered passages during a Paris city tour is an excellent way to understand Parisian life while also providing a rich shopping and culinary experience. Paris has about 20 of such covered passages each differing in their character and look. Below are some of the remarkable covered passages to visit in Paris.
Passage Brady
Located near the Gare de l'Est, the Passage Brady is known as Little India, as it houses many shops and restaurants run by Indians, Pakistanis, and Mauritians. The passage has the character of a typical Indian street and is one among the longest covered street in Paris. Passage Brady has numerous shops that sell a wide range of exotic goods like spices, oils, teas, etc., which are difficult to find in a conventional Parisian market.
Passage des Panoramas
Another top covered passage to visit in Paris is the Passage des Panoramas. It is known as the first covered passageway in Paris and was constructed in 1799. The Passage des Panoramas is one of the best-covered passages to visit because it still manages to have its antique charm and historical background. It contains the Theatre des Varietes that conducts various concerts and other programs for the visitors.
Passage du Prado
Passage du Prado is another major covered passageway in Paris. The passageway has a simplified atmosphere and has lesser crowds making it an ideal destination for shopping. The Passage du Prado contains a mixture of Pakistani restaurants, Thai fabric shops, and many others. The different shops located in the Passage du Prado gives a highly rewarding shopping experience for the visitors.
Passage du Caire
Passage du Caire is the oldest covered passages in Paris and was built in 1798. Besides the oldest, the Passage du Caire is also the longest and narrowest passage in Paris stretching to about 360 meters. The Passage du Caire is mainly known for its huge array of ready to wear clothing manufacturers making it an excellent place to buy some clothing.
Passage Choiseul
Passage Choiseul is also known for its splendid walkways and collection of various exotic shops and restaurants. This passage houses the Theatre des Bouffles, a renowned comedic opera house that holds several events. The Passage Choiseul is currently the best maintained passages in Paris and is definitely worth a visit.

A conservative group, "The Coalition for Jobs, Growth and Prosperity" recently sent out a call for people of Illinois to resist Governor Pritzker's tax plan.
Ideas Illinois is an initiative born from the core mission of the Coalition for Jobs, Growth and Prosperity: to communicate with government leaders, lawmakers and their constituents about crystal-clear options to improve and grow our economy, and both the economic and political consequences of doing otherwise. All such communications are based in free-market principles anchored in a reasonable and predictable tax system.
A PolitiFact Illinois article disputes the characterization of the new tax proposal as a "JOBS tax."
While much of this Jobs Tax is vague and undefined, here's what we do know:
This change will be handing a blank check to the politicians in Springfield to raise your taxes whenever they see fit
The Jobs Tax would be the THIRD tax increase on Illinois families in 8 years
If enacted, Illinois will have the 3rd highest business taxes in the NATION driving even more jobs from our state
The governor calls it a "fair tax." We call it an unfair Jobs Tax on middle class families because it will drive jobs out of our state and take more of your hard earned money for their reckless spending habits.
At Ideas Illinois, we're working to share the truth about JB Pritzker's Jobs Tax throughout the state. We want to educate families, government leaders, and lawmakers about the Tax and how we can work together to stop it.
While there's no official definition for a "jobs tax," it's pretty clear Pritzker's plan doesn't contain one.
Experts we spoke with noted the term is sometimes used colloquially to describe so-called head taxes like the $4-per-worker monthly charge Chicago once levied on larger employers. But that in no way resembles what Pritzker is proposing.
Richard Auxier, a research associate with the Urban-Brookings Tax Policy Center, said it is "completely incorrect" to use the term "jobs tax" to refer to a graduated income tax proposal.
"The income tax is not on people, it is on your income," he said.
Auxier also dismissed the ad's contention that amending the constitution to allow for graduated rates would make permanent whatever rates Pritzker and state lawmakers eventually decide to enact.
"There is no such thing as a permanent tax increase," he said. "All you've got to do is come back and change the law."
Indeed, the ad itself underscores that fact when it references past tax hikes. Since its inception in 1969, Illinois' individual income tax rate has changed eight times, rising and falling and rising again before hitting 3 percent in 1990, then ping ponging up to 5 percent in 2011, down to 3.75 percent in 2015 and back up to 4.95 percent in 2017.

Quick SummaryEdit
Lucile Eris ( ルシル・エリス , Rushiru Erisu ) is the Head of the Eris Swords-Clan, a position which he inherited after killing his own parents, who were also blood siblings, in order to save Ferris Eris from their father. His action stemmed from his brotherly love for Ferris (though Ferris once mentioned that Lucille would have killed her if she fails to protect Sion). The Eris House is a major House of Roland and for generations had served as personal guards to the King of Roland.
Lucile's real name is Relx Eris (レルクス・エリス, Rerukusu Erisu). After the "God Devouring (神喰い, Kami Kurai)" incantation was implanted into his head by Lieral Lieutolu (Ryner Lute's father), he devoured the "Demon portion" of "The Lonely Demon" which was sealed beneath the Eris's house, thereafter acquiring half of His essence and becoming Lucile Eris, "The Weaver of All Equations (すべての式を編む者, Subete no Shiki o Amu Mono)." In addition, he also devoured ω (the Curse for erasing "The Weaver of All Equations), made a contract with a thousand demons, and devoured the simulacrum of "The Goddess," and consequently gained an immense amount of power. His body has an ethereal nature and cannot be harmed by even "Rule Fragment" artifacts. However, he is not invincible and cannot yet come close to the level of "The Goddesses" in power. To Ryner's Alpha Stigma, he exists as a void which Ryner claims that it is a binding curse placed on him.
Lucille appears to be very knowledgeable regarding the legendary powers of the past such as The Lonely Demon, The Goddesses and The Mad Hero. Throughout the story, his many actions that has proven that such as devouring the "Demon portion" of "The Lonely Demon" and the simulacrum of "The Goddesses" as well as triggering the awakening of "The Mad Hero" in Sion's body. In fact, he told Sion that both he and Ryner are the Gears that move the world in reference to "The Mad Hero" and "The Lonely Demon."
Before Sion became king, Lucile tested his "eligibility" to ascend the throne by having him entering a contract with "The Mad Hero," and thereafter backing him in the revolution, which in truth was driven by his own hidden agenda, where he will not hesitate to kill Sion if he (Sion) strays from his (Lucile) intended path. While he can apparently be at anywhere almost instantly within Roland, because of a curse, Lucile's movements are restricted and he is unable to set foot outside the Roland Empire. However, the limitations are correlated to the current boundaries of Roland, and as Roland's boundaries expand, Lucile's ability to move freely expands as well. Lucile normally stays in the shadows, close to Sion whenever he is in Roland, in order to guard him from assassins sent by "The Goddess."
He once told Ryner that they are both monsters and are not worthy of having Ferris who is a human. He further states that he only allowed Ryner to be with Ferris because he cannot obtain or reach for anything with his blood-stained hands when his life itself is of no value. In fact, Lucile cares for Ferris to the extent that Miran Froaude claims that Ferris is Lucile's weakness.
In-Depth BackgroundEdit
Lucile's story begins in OKYD Vol. 5. His real name is Relx Eris. He clearly remembers the day Ferris was born. Her parents dubbed her a failure compared to his genius. However, he realized that she was different from him—she possessed a beautiful light that he wanted to protect. His parents based his training on his age, whereas they needlessly abused Ferris because she was weak in their eyes. Relx watched helplessly as the shining light from her eyes slowly faded. She would only show her emotions in front of him because he didn't hit her. The only times he did were when his parents forced him to train her.
When Ferris was 8, Iris was born. Relx was extremely worried that his parents would kill Ferris if Iris proved to be a genius. He desperately tried to get strong enough to protect both of his sisters, especially after his parents decided that Iris was a failure as well. When he was around ten years old, his father took him to a door underneath the mansion. As they traveled deeper underground, despair and anguish almost drove Relx insane. He even started bleeding from his eyes. Nevertheless, when his father saw that he was able to maintain his composure, he was happy and impressed. He believed that Relx was strong enough to speak to the Demon Eris, and he leaves.
When the demon spoke, Relx begged him to grant him enough power to protect his sisters and destroy this chain of fate that the Eris Clan was bound to. The demon refused, stating that like all the others before him, Relx should just submit. Suddenly, a voice rings out, taunting the demon. He claimed he had destroyed the demon Ryner, and there was no way the demon Eris could defeat him. The demon can't believe that a human would do something that would risk the safety of the world. The man replies that he's doing everything for his son, and seals the demon for the time being. He then turns toward Relx. Although Relx is shocked at the sudden turn of events, the man tells him he's on his side. He'll help him get strong enough to defeat the demon and his parents. Nonetheless, he adds that Relx is just a sacrifice in his plan—that everything he's doing is for the sake of his son because he loves him. He adds that the same love has also driven Relx mad, so they should be allies. He states that he's going to do something bad to him, and he won't even remember having this conversation—he'll only know that he has to protect his sisters. Relx asks him for his name, and he tells him it's Lieral. Lieral imprints powerful magic onto Relx, transforming him into the Devourer Lucile. Henceforth, he'll be forced to consume everything, so he can become strong enough to consume the Demon Eris. Relx emerges from the room after a week, his memories wiped, and possessing a strong hunger that is threatening to drive him insane. All the same, he controls himself. Years pass by, and Lucile has become stronger by consuming thousands of demons along with different parts of Eris's body. When he's 18, he goes to consume his soul, almost crying because after this he knows he'll no longer be able to return. Although Eris is surprised that things have come to this, he tells Lucile he hopes he can find happiness. He also adds that someone else, a man, made him do all this—he was not the architect of this plan. Once Lucile consumes him, all Eris' thoughts, emotions, and memories enter his body. As he slowly sorts through them, he remembers what Lieral did to him. However, he is now unable to remove the magic because it's too deeply embedded in him. It is also at this time that he kills his parents when they are about to attack Ferris. After killing them, his hunger is so strong that he almost devours Ferris as well. Luckily, he controls himself, and he tells her there is nothing to fear anymore. Finally strong enough to protect his sisters, Lucile starts searching for the Hero, Arsuld Roland's descendant since he knows that the curse can only be broken after the Hero devours both the Demon Eris and the Demon Ryner so that he can become 'true'.
Lucile next appears in DYD Vol. 1. When Ferris and Iris find the mastermind, Buroff Samuels, Lucile suddenly appears and kills him. Ferris knocks out Iris, so she cannot see what he did and talks to her brother. He explains that Sion's trip to the Rokzan Plains will be a test to see if he can survive a battle against 50 mage knights. If he can, he will be worthy of becoming king. Ferris states that no one could survive such an attack. Lucile replies that he could, but Ferris retorts that Sion isn't him. Lucile answers that if he does, things will become even more interesting.
His story continues in OKYD Vol. 3's chapter "Prologue-Roland's Darkness". He invites Sion Astal to the Eris Mansion after he survived. Ferris tries to stop him, but Lucile tells her Sion's willing to do anything because he can no longer bear his weakness. The two of them continue together. Lucile explains to Sion that all the princes of Roland are put through a test when they are 15 years old (Sion is now 17). If one is able to retain one's sanity while passing through multiple doors, they will be worthy of becoming king. As they start passing though the doors, suffering, anguish, and despair start to overwhelm Sion. No matter how much pain he is in, he still retains control of his senses. Lucile is impressed, stating he's glad that Asruld Roland's blood [Roland's founder] is strong in him. His brothers lost their humanity early on and at one door, Sion's father also lost his sanity. He had also claimed that he wanted to change this corrupt world; however, he didn't have the power to keep his sanity. At the final door, Lucile asks Sion even if suffering and despair continue for eternity, does he still desire power. When Sion answers in the affirmative, Lucile is happy, stating there is a chance that his wish will also be granted and the curse will be broken. At the 7th door, Lucile instructs Sion to undo a seal, and the "mad tale of the two of them shall begin". Sion finds himself in a desolate wasteland where a masked man is chained to a wall with a crimson sword pierced through his chest. Lucile tells him pull out the sword (which he explains he had devoured and is slowly taking over its consciousness). At this point, Sion is about to lose himself and can barely move on his own. He cannot even properly comprehend what Lucile is talking about. When he removes the sword, the masked man, [Asruld Roland] full of despair, enters his body. Although Sion is overwhelmed by the pain, he somehow manages to endure it. Lucile explains that now he will always be with him as his sword. He tells Sion to devour everything in this world so he can attain even greater power. However, Sion says that he wants to change peoples' hearts by becoming a light of hope. He states that Lucile is so strong that he doesn't see the weakness in others or in Sion himself. Lucile agrees to this plan and disappears. Sion is suddenly returned to the main dojo, surprising Ferris. He tells Lucile telepathically that he's taking Ferris for a job [recruiting Claugh Klom] because Lucile only wants to handle monster extermination.
- Each quote is numbered so that conversations can be grouped together
From OKYD Vol. 5
1. (After his father called him a genius): "I'll do my best to live up to those expectations."
2. (To baby Ferris): "… I should wash these hands. So I can hold you. It's already late at night. You can fall asleep as I hold you and sing a lullaby."
3. (To 8 year old Ferris): "Certainly, our younger sister was born. As her older sister, protect your little sister."
Ferris: "… Will Brother do the same for me?"
Lucile: "Me, protect? Yes."
4. (To the Demon Eris): "What must I do to end things here? It has all the meaning to me. Tell me a way to end this farce… For the sake of saving my sister…"
5. (Lieral to Relx): "By the way, it's a rather horrible proposal. You'll never find happiness. You'll cease to be a person, reach the lowest of despair, and become lost in it for eternity--Nevertheless, will you accept it?"
6. (Lieral to Relx): "You're clever, so you've probably realized. Therefore, you won't reject it. Besides, for what I intend to do, your feelings are inconsequential. You're only a sacrifice in my plan."
Relx: "… You're even worse than the monster from before."
Lieral: "Is that right?"
Relx: "Yes."
Lieral: "Well, even the demon's frightened. Maybe I really am the worst, huh?"
Relx: "… So, what are you doing all of this for? I can't understand something like that. To go as far as to sacrifice your wife and the world—is it worth that much?"
Lieral: "Of course. I love my son."
Relx: "You love him?"
Lieral: "Yeah."
Relx: "The meaning of that word…"
Lieral: "You know, don't you? That's why you're trying to save your sister. That's definitely love."
Relx: "That's love?"
Lieral: "Yeah. Already, you've been driven mad by that love. Mad with love, you'll kill your parents. You'll kill the demon. And then, you'll kill this world. But you won't care. It's fine as long as you can protect your sister, isn't it? Nothing else matters. No matter who cries, no matter who dies, none of it matters. As long as you can protect your sister, it's fine. Am I right? In that case, you're also my ally. Together, we'll break this world. As fellow madmen, let's get along, shall we?" Relx: "What are you doing?"
Lieral: "Something bad."
7. Lieral's final words to Relx: "It'll be all right. You'll protect your sister. Well, years after this, you'll break. Now, let's start. The truth is that I'm out of time. In your head, I've placed the God Devourer [Lucile] curse. That spell will turn. And in the years from here on, you'll slowly, slowly devour Eris, and you'll be rejected from this world and go mad. You'll be irreconcilable with man, with gods, doomed to be God Devourer [Lucile]. Goodbye, Relx-kun, your life will end here..."
8. Once he realizes that he'll have to devour everything: "Ah, it feels as if I'm about to die of starvation…"
9. To Ferris before he devours Eris's soul: "I'm going to see the abyss of the world."
10. Demon Eris: "Ah...this is quite troubling. You were deceived, right? At the very least, this isn't the scenario that I wrote. This isn't the scenario that I wrote with Ryner. It shouldn't be yours, either. So what is the writer of this scenario trying to do? Ryner suddenly left me and disappeared...I can't protect Asruld like this..."
Demon Eris: "What are you going to do after devouring me?"
Lucile: "I'll save my sister."
Demon Eris: "Just for that..."
Lucile: "To me, she's everything."
Demon Eris: "I see...that's right. I wanted to help Asruld for the exact same reason, huh. Everyone has gone mad anyways. They couldn't bear solitude. They couldn't bear loneliness, and seek love. And this is how it all ends, huh. Alright. I'll let you devour me. You'll never be able to stop if you did that...you're fine with that, aren't you? Devour me. Then I can be released from this cursed cycle. You'll be the one to bear it. You will save Asruld and bear all responsibilities. It'll be nice...if you could find happiness."
11. Remembering Lieral's curse after killing his father: 'Your life will end here once. And an endless fight will begin. Until you attain your hero...until you attain real love, you'll never know fulfillment. You'll be driven to madness by your hunger, and you'll writhe with the desire to devour all demons, all gods, all humans...and more importantly, the sister that you hold so dear. I don't care if you devoured her. Your hunger won't disappear by just devouring your sister, but you can go ahead and devour her anyways. That's none of my business. But you seem kind, so you'll suffer. Oh, how pitiful. But, well, that's life...so keep walking as far as you can. Don't worry, just keep walking. If you stopped, then I'll kill you immediately.'

Introduction To Renoise
1 Introduction To Renoise
- 1.1 Main Screen Overview
- 1.2 Guide Yourself Through the Interface: Tooltips
- 1.3 Renoise Work-flow: Learning the Keys
Introduction To Renoise
Welcome to Renoise. This introduction will familiarise you with the main components of the user interface and explain their basic functions. If you haven't already set up audio and MIDI devices, then it's recommended to move on to those sections of the manual after reading through this page.
Main Screen Overview
Renoise is significantly different from most other music creation packages and, as a result, its interface may look unusual. When you load Renoise for the first time you will be presented with something similar to this:
We will now briefly go through the main areas of the Renoise interface. Note the links in blue, which you can click on for more detailed information about the various components.
Upper Status Bar
Located at the very top of the interface is the Upper Status Bar. The left section of the status bar offers a variety of menu options. To the right of this is the Master volume slider which controls the overall volume of the song. Next is the button to auto adjust the Master volume level and avoid clipping (the volume is automatically lowered when clipping occurs). Further right is the VU meter showing the current Master volume level, followed by the MIDI controls (MIDI Mapping button, MIDI I/O LEDs), Song Timer and the current CPU usage.
Global Song Control
Just below the Upper Status Bar on the left-hand side are the basic Transport Panel controls. From here you can start/stop the song and access basic editing features such as Edit Mode (record) and the metronome.
Song Visualisation
Below the Transport Panel are the Scopes, which provide visual feedback and can help you to analyse the song as it is playing.
Loading & Saving Files
At the bottom right corner of the interface is the Disk Browser, which is used to load or save songs, instruments, samples, effect chains etc. Upon first loading Renoise you will see a list of demo songs here. Double click on a song to load it, then press play to see and hear Renoise in action.
Selecting Instruments
Just above the Disk Browser is the Instrument Selector, where you choose the current instrument that you wish to play or record with using either the computer keyboard or an external MIDI keyboard.
Editing View
Selecting one of these tabs will change the content of the large central section of the interface. By default it will be set to Edit, displaying the Pattern Editor where you record notes and effect commands. Selecting Mixer will open the mixer view, which is more efficient for monitoring and editing the song's various tracks and effect devices. The next three tabs deal with different aspects of the currently selected Instrument, which in Renoise may contain any combination of samples, plugins and MIDI.
GUI presets
Directly above the Instrument Selector are a set of eight global preset buttons used to switch between various sections of the interface and are accessed by either clicking on them or pressing F1 - F8 on the keyboard. Renoise comes with eight presets already stored by default.
Sequencing Patterns
Located at the far left of the screen is the Pattern Sequencer. Renoise uses a sequence of patterns to arrange the structure of a song and the Pattern Sequencer is used to create, copy and organise your patterns.
Creating Patterns
To the right of the Pattern Sequencer and occupying the large central space is the Pattern Editor, which is the main tool for composing and editing within Renoise. Although it may look intimidating to beginners, the method of adding/recording notes into tracks using the Pattern Editor is actually incredibly simple.
Applying Effects
Beneath the central area is the panel for Track Effects. This displays and controls all of the effects that are being applied to the current track (the track which the cursor is in). Besides the typical Audio Effects (native/VST/AU/LADSPA/DSSI) you can also assign Routing Devices to send/receive audio, and Meta Devices such as LFOs that do not directly affect audio, but are instead used to alter parameters through automation.
Lower Status Bar
Finally, at the very bottom is the Lower Status Bar. The icons at the left allow you switch between the Track Effects and Graphical Automation panels or hide them completely. At significant points, Renoise will display information regarding its status and current operations here. If you wish to see the Welcome panel again, click on the Renoise logo at the right.
Guide Yourself Through the Interface: Tooltips
As you are using Renoise, watch out for Tooltips, which can be seen by hovering the mouse pointer over a button or part of the interface for a second. Almost every button in Renoise will provide you with a small tip about its function.
Renoise Work-flow: Learning the Keys
While Renoise supports drag'n'drop and mouse gestures, it is primarily a keyboard-based application. As such, there are keyboard shortcuts for practically every function. To view the available shortcuts, select "Help->List Keyboard Shortcuts..." from the Upper Status Bar. If you are interested in a shortcut specific to an interface area, you can right-click to open a context menu. Additionally, the keyboard shortcuts can be customised in the "Edit->Preferences->Keys" menu.
A list of most important shortcuts can also be found in the Keyboard Shortcuts section of this manual.

I am definitely voting this month now that I have... an ounce of free time since school is over, and this month has been iconic for new releases!
PSA: I'm gonna need everyone to throw some votes to Megan Thee Stallion's new album
I know she's a rapper and this is popjustice blah blah blah but Big Ole Freak (from the Tina Snow album which you should also vote for) is boutta be a worldwide smasha so it's time to get on the stallion stanning train
Here we go!
At least 4 of my 10 songs will be from Eurovision, specifically:
The injusticed by the juries, Keiino (Norway)
Luca Hanni/Honey
Mahmood, 2nd place
The 3 twinks from Czech Republic
and then Blame It On Your Love obviously
I'm going to give the CHAI album a listen @Reboot.
@Empty Shoebox @Riiiiiiiii @londonrain @Sprockrooster @untaggable - what Dalida song should I get @ohnostalgia to listen to this month?
Shania's Up!, Come On Over, and NOW may all end up on my album list this month, depending on how often I listen to them for the rest of the month, so y'all should consider honoring one of them with me.
And didn't the international version of Come On Over use to be on Spotify? In the US?
@R&B posse assemble:
Reminder to vote for the EP of the century!
Aly & AJ stans, if there's one track we should all rally behind with maximum points in hopes of Top 5, I think it's "Star Maps." Have you ever met a more flawless song?
I for one will be throwing points at every single new song of theirs. And Insomniatic for good measure.
I have to say I am into this @CasuallyCrazed development of turning into me with Dalida! Keep up the good work, sistren!!
Hmmmmm...can we make it so we can vote for like 20 songs and albums this month @ohnostalgia?
You want me to enter more than the 300 songs I already have to deal with?
Working on my ballot. Limiting myself to three Carly tracks:
Right Words Wrong Time (Gold)
Too Much (Silver)
I'll Be Your Girl (Bronze)
Separate names with a comma.

The categories of age used to be simple – you were young, middle aged or old. Now you can be a teenager, a baby-boomer – those selfish people born after the war who seem to stay on in their houses and avoid retirement – or an even older pensioner whose care is such a strain on the public purse.
There used to be a much more predictable life journey, at least in peacetime: you trained, rose to be senior and retired on a certain date, or as a grandmother laid down the law to your juniors. Some of the landmarks were fairly arbitrary – when the Latey committee on the Age of Majority asked why it was 21, we were told that was the age a young man was strong enough to wear full armour – hardly relevant today or even for scribes and milkmaids then, come to that.
People are living longer and changing jobs and residences late on. Ros Altman, who used to run Saga, lauds the enormous possibilities there are for seniors. People change careers after half a life, though seniority is not what it was before the young discovered the internet.
Older mothers apparently make an excellent job of it – some sources put them ahead of younger ones. If grandmothers want to wear jeans or bikinis they do, adventurous oldies cross deserts and seas. Not everybody can do anything, of course, but at least there are fewer rules about when they do it.
What do you think? Have your say below

Australian Championships
Windsond was used during the Australian National Balloon Championships on April 22-27. The organizer released at least one sonde before each morning and evening flight to get the most up-to-date data to plan fun and challenging tasks for the pilots. In total 15 soundings were made, up to 9700 ft AGL. All sondes were recovered – with one exception closer than 10 m from the reported GPS landing co-ordinates.
The people operating Windsond during the competition reports the following:
In summary the use of windsond was very well received by pilots, event directors and the event professional meteorologist. Readings correlated well with forecast conditions above 5000 ft agl and provided detailed information on conditions below 5000 ft where winds were more difficult to forecast due to localised drainage. To operate the system was simple and intuitive, with an average turn around from launch to return of 45 minutes to 1 hour for reading to around 7500 ft agl with data, maps and recovery of the windsond (up to 10 km from launch). Recovery was often straightforward thanks to the remote cut down feature, allowing us to accurately target landing adjacent to access roads thanks to the live tracking & rolling updated predicted landing points. By the end of the week we could confidently land it within 100 m of a road and the reported landing locations were within 10 m of the actual landing location. We made 15 soundings in total up to a maximum altitude of 9727ft agl and all sonds were recovered. We'll definitely be using windsonds again in the future.
Bug fix
One of the soundings proved problematic, when the altitude reported by the sonde GPS suddenly reported a big drop in altitude although the sonde was still rising. This fooled the sonde to believe the balloon had burst and the sonde was falling, causing it to behave as though going through a landing. The sonde stopped updating the GPS position to save power, as it usually does after a landing. The sonde could still be recovered.
This was clearly a software bug. The altitude reported by the GPS system has proved to be inaccurate in general, and in this rare case particularly unreliable. That's why all sondes also are equipped with a barometric pressure sensor, which the system usually trusts more than GPS. I'm now modifying the algorithm to inspect air pressure change instead of GPS altitude change also in this case, to avoid such errors in the future.

WALSALL might not sound like a club associated with flamenco style football and reggae rhythms but Colin Lee's side are a truly international bunch.
The Saddlers' squad for tomorrow is likely to include two Spaniards, a Portuguese, a Jamaican, an Australian and a New Zealander from outside these shores while a couple of Scotsmen and an Irishman also ply their trade at the Bescot.
Walsall manager Lee signed quality rather than quantity in the summer and the club has rarely been out of the headlines since capturing Paul Merson from Portsmouth.
The Saddlers also snapped up Vinny Samways, who was out of contract in Spain, while Scottish international centre back Paul Ritchie made his debut in last Monday's defeat at Crewe, Walsall's first loss of the season.
The former Manchester City man signed last Friday but was forced to pull out of Saturday's match against Stoke when his new-born baby fell ill.
But even with the talent at his disposal Lee still feels his side is short of firepower. He is actively looking for a new striker and could even bring in a new man in time for tomorrow's game.
"We lost Junior to Derby over the summer and we've been trying hard to replace him," said Lee.
"We've just got to get on with it but it doesn't take a genius to see we are lacking an end product."
Their only injury concern is Jamaican international forward Jamie Lawrence, who will miss the game with a chipped bone in his toe.

Still fine. Got in early, to get as much work done as possible before going to
