Del Mar Leather Sandal
Mexico, DF
Some Curves/Average Height
Design is cute! The edges of the leather have no finish, honestly I would have preferred them finished, they would have looked polished. Sole is sewed to outline it, however it is a little bit uncomfortable when walking, it leaves some kind of mark int he heel that hurts, wonder if when walking long distances they may even cause a blister. Toe ring is a little bit wide, in my case they hurt a little bit when walking and hit the closure of the two fingers. Sizing, it is snug to fit, the middle part of the sole is narrow, so this is not for wide feet. I have narrow feet and they are a little bit wider than the sole; the length is almost exact to the end of the sole, so in my opinion they are small half a size. I'm looking forward to buy the next size when they become available.

Bruce Jenner is nobody's bitch -- or so he thinks -- saying Kris Jenner might be the "Queen of F**king Everything" ... but he still runs the show.
Coach Jenner was at LAX when a photog asked him if there's a hidden meaning to the now famous cell phone cover his wife flashed in NYC the other day.
Bruce seemed a little confused at first, but then went on to state his own version of the Declaration of Independence ... going so far as to claim he has Kris "under control."
Uhhh ... he better hope Kris doesn't see this.
He also talks about Kim Kardashian's divorce and Lamar Odom's NBA playoff run -- but there's only one part of this video his wife/manager/queen is going to remember.
Well, Mr. Bruce Jenner, you have one thing to look forward to in the near future. Being as you've had some many facelifts there is no longer any SKIN on your face to lift. When that recent work starts sagging the good doc will be able to wheel your azz into surgery and take all that extra skin from your neck and pull it up over your head. I'm sure in another five years when you are on facelift #3 the skin on your body will have been pulled so tight your balls will become your chin (that is, if Momma Ho has decided to take them out of her handbag and give them back to you). The Kama Sutra will then be able to add Mr. Bruce Jenner as a new position since he'll be able to ****** himself.
Love me some Bruce Jenner! Great guy. How he ended up with Kris Jenner is beyond me. She doesn't give him the respect he deserves.
Bruce can do the entire world a favor by declaring that living with these MONSTERS has been a horrifying experience and then divorce THAT THING just like Bob Kardassian did so long ago.
No man with an ounce of self respect would put up with this C R A P .
Thank you
Every time I realize that one of our greatest Olympians has been reduced to this I weep a little.
This interview could be the icing on the cake to that rumor they are separated and living apart. Why else would he have the cajones to state that he "RUNS" Momma Ho. He has no fear now that they aren't in the same house. Someone please, please, please explain to me, YET AGAIN< why these two NEVER seem to be photographed together unless it's a photo op like Christmas when the rumors were flying that they were divorcing?
he's as sh*tty as she is.
he stands idly by while she pimps out children. she'll be producing the jenner girls porn film in 3...2...1

It's just seven seconds long, but for whatever reason, ABC may have just provided us with our first look at the hotly anticipated Hulk television series that Guillermo del Toro and Marvel television have been working on for years Joss Whedon's 'Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.' from Marvel Television. It's just seven seconds long, but it now looks like the series, which was hopefully offered as a 2013-2014 candidate by ABC's Paul Lee at the television industry's upfronts last year is soon headed to the small screen via a mystery writer. The Upfronts is an annual event in which networks traditionally invite advertisers and dazzle them with celebrities and sneak peeks at upcoming fall programming — ABC's 2013 Upfronts will take place on May 14.

With the help of his closest companion — a robot named Baymax — Hiro joins forces with a reluctant team of first-time crime fighters on a mission to save their city.

But Dusty's not exactly built for racing—and he happens to be afraid of heights. So he turns to a seasoned naval aviator who helps Dusty qualify to take on the defending champ of the race circuit. Dusty's courage is put to the ultimate test as he aims to reach heights he never dreamed possible, giving a spellbound world the inspiration to soar.

NEW YORK -- A state survey found more than two-thirds of people convicted of driving drunk aren't using a required ignition interlock system. In response to the study, New York lawmakers have introduced a bill that would boost penalties for failure to use the electronic system.
They say some people skirt the law by claiming they don't own a vehicle, or put their car in someone else's name until the six month period expires. The original measure is part of Leandra's Law, passed in 2009 after an 11-year-old girl was killed while riding in a car driven by an intoxicated woman.

Quick Overview
String Violin D Prelude 4/4 J813 Nickel WoundProduct Details
D'Addario Prelude strings are convincing even the most conservative string teachers and players that all student strings are not created equal. Preludes are precision crafted with a solid high-carbon steel core. While this composition is similar to other quality student strings, the difference is the damping fluid that D'Addario inserts between the windings. The fluid reduces unwanted overtones, creating the kind of warm, rich sound you never though you could get from steel. Yet, students still get the full response with minimal effort - traditionally a virtue of solid core strings - as well as their longevity and resistance to changes in temperature and humidity.

About ISMRD
ISMRD is an internationally focused nonprofit organization whose mission is to advocate for families and patients affected by one of the Glycoprotein Storage Diseases: Alpha-Mannosidosis, Aspartylglucosaminuria, Beta-Mannosidosis, Fucosidosis, Galactosialidosis, Mucolipidosis II (I-Cell Disease), Mucolipidosis III (Pseudo-Hurler Polydystrophy), Schindler Disease and Sialidosis. These diseases are the ultra-orphans of the Lysosomal Storage Disease family, which encompass over 40 similar disorders, and currently have few treatments beyond symptomatic care. ISMRD's advocacy efforts are not limited by borders, language, race or religion.
With the benefit of a crystal ball ISMRD's Board of Directors envisions a future where children are detected early, treated effectively and go on to live long, healthy and productive lives. In this new reality science, medicine and families will have collaborated to find cures where none exist today and the need for an organization such as ISMRD will no longer exist.
We invite you to utilize our website to learn more about these diseases and ISMRD's role in bringing our vision to reality. Please contact us if you wish to know more or want to contribute time or money to our cause. Or download our brochure (PDF).

Long story short: I'm having a discussion with a friend of mine who has seen one too many youtube ""documentaries"" about the moon landing.
I am trying to argue that the apollo program probably produced a whole lot more than a few minutes of television history, either in the form of hard science or experience, that probably helped lay the foundation of knowledge and science used today.
The reason I'm posting this here, and not in the comspiracy-section, is that I don't know where to start digging to find any kind of science produced during the apollo program og based upon it. Got any suggestions?

The Buena Vista volleyball team tallied a season-high 51 kills on Friday night against the College of St. Mary, but the Flames hung on in the end for a 3-1 victory inside of Siebens Fieldhouse.
CSM took the opening set 25-20 before the Beavers rallied to even the match with a 25-22 triumph in the second. BVU was facing set point in the third set before the Flames rallied back to edge the Beavers, 27-25. After trailing late in the fourth set, BVU rallied back within 22-21, but the Flames scored three of the final four points for the four-set triumph.
Sophomore Kirsten Van Zuiden (Carroll, Iowa/Carroll) led all players with a match-high 16 kills, while freshman Abby Hinrichs (Ankeny, Iowa/Ankeny) followed with a career-high 10. As a team, the Beavers finished with a season-best attack percentage of .328. Sophomore Courtney Van Haaften (Alta, Iowa/Alta) dished out 31 assists and also tallied seven kills, while chalking up nine digs, defensively.
Sophomore Chelsea Gubbels (Carroll, Iowa/Kuemper Catholic) posted a team-leading 11 digs, while junior Jena Peters (Lake Park, Iowa/Harris-Lake Park) turned in two solo and three assisted blocks.
Kaylee Wallace and Jessica Kuehner led the Flames (4-10) with 12 and 11 kills, respectively.
Buena Vista is now 1-10 on the year and will take the court again on Wednesday night when it travels to the University of Dubuque for an Iowa Conference match-up at 7:30pm.

COLORADO SPRINGS, COLO. -- It might not feel like baseball season in Colorado Springs. But in fact the Sky Sox opener verse the Reno Aces is set for Thursday night at 6:35.
"We had a good spring in Scottsdale, Arizona," said Sky Sox outfielder Charlie Blackmon. "I'm excited to get here, get back to the Springs. I've been here for a couple years now and I'm ready to get this season going."
Tuesday the Sky Sox held their annual 'Meet the Players' luncheon. The media blitz was held to talk about the upcoming year, league projections, batting styles, etc.
"You know I'm gonna say I'm gonna play hard and I'm gonna do whatever I can to help the team," said infielder Nolan Arenado.
"We got a lot of good young people to play and some other guys that are really good too," said outfielder Tyler Colvin.
The team seems excited and for good reason. On paper they look to have an outstanding year.
But before opening day there is one more very important thing each player must take care of...deciding their walk up music.
Charlie Blackmon "The walk-out song is not something to be taken lightly. It's something people are going to associate with you. It's something you're going to hear before you do the most important thing you do all day," said Blackmon.
Last year Charlie batted .303 after being inspired by Enrique Iglesias, 'Tonight I'm Loving You'.
"Oh there's no way I'm choosing that again!"
He's not giving out any hints. You'll have to head to Security Service Field to find out yourself.

Mashable is talking about it, The Huffington Post is talking about it and thanks to Twitter it seems as though another season of our beloved show, Arrested Development, is finally in the works.
While a possible season 4 was first announced in late 2011, we've heard these rumors before (remember, there was supposed to be a movie too at one point). But this time, thanks to the tweeting of @batemanjason, and show's central protagonist, and @RealRonHoward, executive producer and narrator, we're believing what we're reading this time.
Last week Howard tweeted a shot of Bateman's script for his character Michael Bluth, then earlier this week Bateman tweeted photos of his son George Michael Bluth (Michael Cerra). Here is the first and second shot that also give us a peek at the set. According to another tweet by Bateman, filming is set to begin mid August.

PageRank doesn't matter. You don't need to be concerned with it
There is shock and horror, and people who simply shake their heads at how wrong we are.
PR not matter? It's how Google ranks sites, isn't it? You can't get anyone to link to you without it!!
Let's clarify what we are talking about, because the biggest problem is that people don't really know what PR is or what it is supposed to do for their site.
1) Most people are referring to Toolbar PR
This is the little green bar that shows the PR for the site. Here are the reasons it doesn't matter:
- Toolbar PR is flaky. Sometimes it reports nothing, sometimes it reports weird numbers, sometimes it changes depends on what datacenter you are looking at- it could show different numbers at different times of the day or viewed from different computers
- Toolbar PR is only a general approximation. It shows a number between 0 and 10 relative to every other page in the index of billions of pages. Pretty inexact is an understatement.
- Toolbar PR tells you nothing about how your site ranks for any certain term or how much traffic you get. Nothing. Sites with PR 0 can rank for many terms while sites with PR8 may still not be on the first page for their desired keyword phrases. Sites with lower visible toolbar PR can rank more highly than your page.
- Link popularity refers to how many pages link to your page.
- PageRank is a measurement of how many pages link to your page multiplied by the weight or importance of those links. Pages with higher link popularity have more weight than pages with lower link popularity and therefore, more "weight". However, the weight of the votes each link get is divided by the number of links on the page.
- A link on a lower weight page that has less links can be more helpful than a link on a high popularity page that has hundreds of links on the page.
4) The goal of having a "PR7" site isn't a goal at all. PR doesn't buy your groceries or pay your taxes. Goals of improving sales, gaining business partners on the web, and building your brand image do have an effect on your business- a green bar scale does not.
5) Yes, I know it's easier to point your boss to the PR bar to proudly prove that you are good at your job because it shows a 6 or 7, but if the site isn't profitable, you are still going to be let go. You can have a great PR number and still have lousy rankings, traffic, and sales.
6) A great site that has a PR of 0 does not mean it's a bad site. It could be new, it could have had server trouble recently, or the toolbar could be on the blink.
7) If you PR shown goes down a notch, it doesn't mean you've done anything wrong. As stated before, it is a relative measure and when more pages are added to the index, the numbers shift around as to what makes a 4 or a 5. Before panicking, check your rankings and your traffic. More often than not.. there's no change. Cause the PR number does NOT determine your rankings.
What toolbar PR is helpful for
- If a site seems... somehow wrong or dodgy to you, it's been around a while and has no PR, it may be an indication that a site doing something wrong. It could also be a glitch, so use your good judgement with that.

Topics in this article: Health Care Health Alliance Plan of Michigan Priority Health United American Healthcare Corp.
Originally Published: September 19, 2013 5:00 AM Modified: October 15, 2013 4:58 PM
7 Michigan HMOs recognized for improving careBy Jay Greene
Seven health maintenance organizations, including five that serve Southeast Michigan, have been recognized by Lansing-based Michigan Association of Health Plans for developing programs to improve electronic medication prescribing, depression service delivery and managed care practices for children. "It is always inspiring to see (association) members striving to deliver better service to members while paring costs in smart ways," said Rick Murdock, executive director of MAHP. "Every submission has value to other health plans who get to see what their peers are doing to increase affordable access to health care," Murdock said. It is the 13th year that MAHP has issued the Pinnacle Awards. Leading the way was Priority Health, based in Grand Rapids with an office in Farmington Hills, which won six awards. Grand Rapids-based Grand Valley Health Plan and Molina Healthcare of Michigan both received two awards and McLaren Health Plan in Flint won one award. Four other health plans received awards from the Michigan Department of Community Health Cancer Genomics Program. The awards recognized written policies on genetic screening and reactions to screening for the BRCA-gene that can predict breast cancer risks. The four are Detroit-based Health Alliance Plan, Molina Healthcare, Priority Health and United Healthcare in Southfield. The policies cover women with BRCA mutation, which include mammography screening, breast MRI, and the option of surgery to remove breast or ovarian tissue before cancer occurs. Here are some highlights of the awards, which can be reviewed at the MAHP website.
Results were positive – support helped reduce ER use up to 15 percent, well baby visits increased by 25 percent for children under 15 months, and the average number of school days missed decreased to 1.4 days from 6.3 days.

Some Curves/Short
I love this jacket! I've been searching for the perfect plain leather jacket for a good three years now. I'm 5'3 so most are too long and bulky on me. The trend is also these embellished jackets when I just wanted something classic. I took a gamble and bought this ans absolutely love it. It's a little cropped and slightly boxy, the sleeves are PERFECT length with zippers so u can roll them up if you want. The leather is buttery soft, there really isn't anything bad I can say about it. If I had the money to burn I'd buy all the colors. I usually wear a 6 in jackets and the 4 fits me perfectly with a little room to spare. I could probably wear the 2, but the 4 is very comfortable. Seriously get it while you can find it, I don't think it's available anywhere else,

Posted: Feb 8, 2013 5:16 PM by The Associated Press
BOSTON (AP) - A storm forecasters warn could be a blizzard for the history books has begun clobbering the New York-to-Boston corridor.
The region's roughly 25 million people fought blizzard-like conditions Friday night, with blowing, swirling snow and freezing rain.
The National Weather Service says about 3 inches of snow has fallen in Boston but parts of southeast Massachusetts have 6 inches and central Rhode Island has more than 8.
The snowstorm has grounded flights at the New York City area's three major airports. It closed workplaces early and sent people rushing to get home ahead of a possible 1 to 3 feet of snow.
From New Jersey to Maine, shoppers crowded into supermarkets and hardware stores to buy food, snow shovels, flashlights and generators.
Early snowfall has been blamed for a 19-car pileup that caused minor injuries in Cumberland, Maine.

Preparing a 1040EZ Income Tax Form
When students receive a W-2 form from their employer after January 1, they may feel a bit anxious. The form could be the result of a summer job or from a current job.In this lesson, students are given a hypothetical situation where they have to file their first income tax form. This form is usually a 1040EZ form. The 1040EZ is used in most cases because student(s) (1) wages are low, (2) don't itemize deductions, (3) usually do not have dependents, and (4) may or may not be claimed as a dependent on their parent's tax return.
During this lesson you will complete a 1040EZ tax form using information from a W-2 form. You will also learn what each of these forms are used for. Finally you will be able to define a taxable year.
You have been sent a W-2 form from your employer. A W-2 statement is a statement of earnings over the past taxable year (Jan 1 through Dec 31). This is a form filed with the federal government detailing how much money they paid you last year and how much money was deducted for federal income tax withholding. You are required to file your taxes with the IRS to determine if you are entitled to a refund or if you have to pay additional money for income tax.
According to your W-2 statement, your wages were $11,357 for the previous year. The amount deducted from your earnings for federal income tax was $1,248. in addition to your wages you earned $488 interest from your savings account. You are filling as a single person and you are claimed as a dependent on your parent's tax form.
Follow the instructions on both sides of the 1040EZ form to determine if you are entitled to a refund or if an additional tax payment is due. The 1040EZ form will give you a step by step approach for accurately filling out the form and filing their taxes. If the form itself is not enough students should read this article called "How to Fill and File IRS From 1040-EZ." This article provides easy to follow step by step instructions on filling out the 1040 EZ form.
Complete "Worksheet for Line 5 - Dependents who checked one or both boxes" when you are done answering the questions. This is located on the second page of the Tax Form.
Are you entitled to a refund? If so, how much? Do you have to pay additional money for your income tax? If so, how much?
Filling out a tax form can be frustrating. Tax preparation services can charge as much as $150 to prepare this form.

Pulse: Jackson Jr. takes off while airport remains grounded
January 13, 2013 10:32PM
Article Extras
Updated: February 15, 2013 6:14AM
At last year's Economic Forecast event, John Greuling, president and CEO of the Will County Center for Economic Development, predicted the south suburban airport near Peotone would "take off" in 2012. It didn't. And at last week's 2013 forecast luncheon, Greuling had to own up to his faulty forecast.
"Well, it didn't quite take off, but one of its big supporters took off," Greuling said, noting the resignation from office of U.S. Rep. Jesse Jackson Jr.
Greuling couldn't help but include the airport in his new list of predictions for 2013, however. He expects the airport governance issue — which once pitted Jackson against Will County leaders — to finally be resolved.
Sorry, wrong headquarters
Democrat Joe Babich, who is the new president of the Will County Forest Preserve District Board, has picked attorney Joe Cernugel to share legal duties with fellow lawyer Dick Kavanagh, who is a Republican. The legal split mirrors the board's new 13-13 split between the two parties.
Cernugel said he also worked for the district 34 years ago, but things have changed a lot during that time, including the location of district headquarters.
"I went to the police department, which used to be the (forest preserve) administrative office back in the 1970s," he confessed at his first board meeting on Thursday.
Cernugel's appointment was approved unanimously by the board.
Fischer not Fisher
The person who filed a legal challenge to remove two challengers from the Joliet City Council election is named Joseph Fischer. Any relation to Councilman Don Fisher, also a candidate in the race?
Well, besides the fact that the names are spelled differently, no, Councilman Fisher said. And, no, said John Gnutek, one of the candidates who could be taken off the ballot.
Gnutek, a neighbor of Councilman Fisher, however, said the objector probably was chosen for the mission by people with a scheme.
"The reason they chose him was to muddy Mr. (Don) Fisher's (no c) name," Gnutek said.
Electric bill reminder
Joliet City Hall wants residents and small businesses to be sure to know that Tuesday is the deadline to sign up for the city's electric aggregation program. Letters bearing the official city letterhead went out by mail offering the program. People also can sign up by phone at 877-635-0494 or online at www.fes.com/joliet.
Quote of the week
"Because I'm too old to get on the pony." — Will County Board Speaker Herb Brooks Jr., D-Joliet, telling former board Chairman Jim Moustis, R-Frankfort Township, why he wasn't involved in what Moustis called a "dog and pony show" at Tuesday's board meeting.
Cindy Wojdyla Cain and Bob Okon contributed to Pulse.

3-D quiver or velocity plot
h = quiver3(...)
A three-dimensional quiver plot displays vectors with components (u,v,w) at the points (x,y,z), where u,v,w,x,y, and z all have real (non-complex) values.
quiver3(x,y,z,u,v,w) plots vectors with components (u,v,w) at the points (x,y,z). The matrices x,y,z,u,v,w must all be the same size and contain the corresponding position and vector components.
quiver3(z,u,v,w) plots the vectors at the equally spaced surface points specified by matrix z. quiver3 automatically scales the vectors based on the distance between them to prevent them from overlapping.
quiver3(...,scale) automatically scales the vectors to prevent them from overlapping, and then multiplies them by scale. scale = 2 doubles their relative length, and scale = 0.5 halves them. Use scale = 0 to plot the vectors without the automatic scaling.
quiver3(...,LineSpec) specifies line style, marker symbol, and color using any valid LineSpec. quiver3 draws the markers at the origin of the vectors.
quiver3(...,LineSpec,'filled') fills markers specified by LineSpec.
quiver3(...,'PropertyName',PropertyValue,...) specifies property name and property value pairs for the quivergroup object the function creates.
quiver3(axes_handle,...) plots into the axes with the handle axes_handle instead of into the current axes (gca).
h = quiver3(...) returns a handle to the quivergroup object.
axis | contour | LineSpec | plot | plot3 | quiver | surfnorm | view

Tools of War: The Pen and Sword – WWII-ERA NRP
There is no safe place left in this world. Over the past half-century, natural disasters have been on a rise. There have been numerous earthquakes, tsunamis, blizzards of record-proportion, and storms so violent that entire cities have been changed forever; and that is just the beginning of it. As nations struggle to rebuild from rising amounts of destruction, and fight over resources to do so, a new war has risen in the world: the war of ink. Ideals have divided the boundaries of nations, with the spread of beliefs erecting imaginary walls between former allies, and creating friends out of bitter enemies.Important Links
One must ask the question in these troubling times, who is right? Should the people have their freedom, and their liberty? Should man be trusted with such power, or should the security of the people lie in the hands of the elite? Who is right…? It won't be decided by morals, but simply who has the most powerful word… And the strength to back it.
- GM's word is law. This is simple and to the point, but if a GM says something, that's how it will be. As your GMs, we consider ourselves logical, reasonable, approachable people. If you want to discuss or debate one of our decisions with us, you're welcome to do so, and we'll see if we can't come to a compromise. But at the end of the day, what the GM says goes.
- There is no such thing as semi-literate. You are either here for an advanced roleplay, or you aren't. If you aren't, the casual section is just a few clicks away; but if you stick around here then you're expected to write at an advanced level.
- When you join my roleplay, you're expected to be a leader, not a follower. Your GMs are here to lead any overarching plot, to maintain cohesiveness, to update the OP and to make sure the players stay active, but we're NOT here to hold your hand.
- Balance. This goes without saying. Don't god mod, or metagaming, or you're out.
- Activity on roleplay threads is expected if you want to be kept as active. One OOC post, chatroom/group doc drop by or IC post every four-five days, minimum; any longer, I'll shoot you a PM asking what's up, but I'm not babysitting. You go inactive without explanation; you get removed, that simple.
- Drama. The OOC kind. Whatever you might have a problem with concerning other members, keep it away from our roleplay. If there's so much as a hint of passive-aggressiveness or argument on this thread, you're out. Goodbye. We see enough of that crap in other RPs on this site, we don't need it on this one. By joining, you're agreeing to leave the past in the past. That goes for GMs and players, as in, anyone who is involved. Whatever happened outside, here it's a blank slate.
- Let's keep that slate clean. While IC is free game, keep oppressive and inflammatory remarks out of the OOC. We are all intelligent adults who can do better than that's gay, retarded, and all that. No racial slurs, no homophobe remarks. In general, just play nice.
Right, so the first thing to discuss is the "Tech Level"!!! We are limiting things to early 1940s technology, such as primitive computers, pressurized air-craft cockpits, sloped armor on tanks, etc. No nuclear weapons, not even advanced nuclear theories! And now the world...Timeline
Orius is the northernmost continent on our planet. A mountainous terrain covered in meters of snow and ice. Violent blizzards, vicious winds, and bitter temperatures make Orius one of the most inhospitable places in existence. Though there aren't many people living here, it is a wonderful place to test new technologies, and so some nations have made permanent scientific and/or military outposts here. The northernmost magnetic pole and geographic poles are both located here, though, surprisingly, no person has ever come within fifty miles of either one.
The eastern continent, commonly called Mallymnir, is the largest body of land on the planet. Most of the world's people live on Mallymnir and its climates range from cold tundra in the north and south, temperate forests in the central regions, and even the occasional tropical jungles near the central coasts. Island chains around the island are mostly volcanic in nature, and have varying climates as well, depending on geographies. Along the tectonic plate-lines in the western-central highlands of Mallymnir, the world's highest mountain range, the Kialegak Range, where the tallest peak in existence, Mt. Parayne reaches an astonishing 12,500 meters (41,000ft). It is the most mineral-wealthy and oil-wealthy continent in the world.
Mytandur is the smallest landmass on the planet. Just north of the western continent, it is mostly flatlands and cold climates. Though it is not snowy and bitter like Orius or the north of Mallymnir, it is not warm enough to produce large amounts of crops, like its southern neighbor. Along the Aldrich River, the river valley is the only truly fertile area on the continent. Mytandur has many ancient ruins, however, and is a very important site for some religions. For example, the Cyprantur Flats, in the south, along the coast, is considered to be the holy land for an young, monotheistic religion (similar to Islam).
Acropul, the western continent, is the third largest continent, and second most populated. With the most fertile land in the world, it is home to some of the oldest cultures in the world. It is typically always temperate and mild, with the central lowlands being very warm and perfect for growing crops like cocoa, coffee, tea, and cotton. It is the warmest and most beautiful of the four continents in the world, and is home to nearly as many people as Mallymnir.
NPC Nations
- 400 BCE: The Ibis Empire is founded in the northeast of Mallymnir and the Ibisene Army conquer nearly all of the east coast within thirty years. Ibisene is the most common language in the world.
- 350 BCE: Ibisene rule is challenged by a small Monarchy in the southwestern part of Mallymnir. A brutal war lasts six years but the Ibis Empire claims victory.
- 300 BCE: Mytandur is riddled by warring city-states. Gun powder becomes common-place on the battlefield.
- 250 BCE: Iriam Holy Lands in Mytandur are claimed by the Ilsyus Empire, a Iriam nation. Four other monarchies rivaled to Ilsyus fight against this claim and a small war erupts.
- 200 BCE: Muskets become common-place and wars are now fought by "Gentleman's Tactics". Ibisene rule is challenged once more by a now long-forgotten Empire from Acropul. This monarch was completely eradicated from history by the might of the Ibis Empire.
- 150 BCE: Ebinian states begin warring over control of the Kialegak Range's southern parts, where the most fertile Ebinian soil is located within the valleys between the mountains. Vieber, the controlling state, wins the ensuing guerilla war.
- 100 BCE: Vieberland is founded and they become the first of Ebinian-dominated states to be recognized in history as an independent state.
- 50 BCE: The long-ignored Ebinian region is soon invaded by Ibisene troops but they are repelled by overwhelmingly shocking force. The Ibis Emperor vows to keep his troops out of the Ebinian region because of their "barbaric" way of fighting.
- 1 CE: Ebinian city-states with the help of Vieberland in the western central areas of Mallymnir raid the Ibisene capital of Libina. The new era's beginning is marked by the first official invasion of Ibis, ever, by multiple unorganized city-states.
- 50 CE: The Großvieber Reich is founded from groups of city-states and the first Imperial force against the Ibisene rule of Mallymnir rose. Cap-rifles and the first gattling guns are invented and trains are common-place.
- 100 CE: The first World War sparks after a severe drought and general rebellion, the Ibis Empire started being torn apart by the centrifugal tendencies of its ethnicities and its rival in Ebinia. About thirty years prior, Loland, a territory disputed between Ebinia and the Empire, declared its independence. Ibis responded with massive force, overwhelming the Lolish with its massive military. Seeking to expand its influence, Ebinia declared war on Ibis to protect Loland, whom they had sworn to defend some time ago. Ibis called its allies, such as they were, into the war, and Ebinia did the same. Albion was one of the nations allied with Ibis, and although the war ended in the victory of Ibis's Coalition, Albion lost almost all its colonial holdings and international prestige, Ibis collapsed during the war and its lost territories rose into multiple smaller states, and other nations were similarily devastated.
- 120 CE: Modern Day
In this changing modern era, nations are now turning to rising ideologies to govern their societiesin the face of growing natural disaster and internal unrest. Some turn to the ideas of liberty and freedom to usher in a new society. Others to the ideal of a classless society to end civil unrest and divisions. Some turn to force and authority to bring the masses into line. And a few seek to return to the past and to tradition for solidarity in these grimmer times.Accepted Nations
At this time, these ideologies are only just beginning to emerge to the world at large, leaving nations to decide what path to take these doctrines and how far.
There are four major forms of ideology to choose from. They are as follows:
- Democracy: Democracy is a form of government in which all eligible citizens participate equally—either directly or through elected representatives—in the proposal, development, and creation of laws. It encompasses social, economic and cultural conditions that enable the free and equal practice of political self-determination. Several variants of democracy exist, but there are two basic forms, both of which concern how the whole body of all eligible citizens executes its will. One form of democracy is direct democracy, in which all eligible citizens have direct and active participation in the decision making of the government. In most modern democracies, the whole body of all eligible citizens remains the sovereign power but political power is exercised indirectly through elected representatives; this is called representative democracy.
- Fascism: A form of radical authoritarian nationalism, fascism seeks to unify a nation through a totalitarian state that promotes the mass mobilization of a national community, and is characterized by having a vanguard party that initiates a revolutionary political movement aiming to reorganize the nation along principles according to fascist ideology. Hostile to liberal democracy, socialism, and communism, fascist movements share certain common features, including the veneration of the state, a devotion to a strong leader, and an emphasis on ultra-nationalism and militarism.
- Communism: Communism is a revolutionary socialist movement to create a classless, moneyless, and stateless social order structured upon common ownership of the means of production, as well as a social, political and economic ideology that aims at the establishment of this social order. According to Marxist theory, higher-phase communism is a specific stage of historical development that inevitably emerges from the development of the productive forces that leads to access abundance to final goods, allowing for distribution based on need and social relations based on freely associated individuals. Marxist theory holds that the lower-phase of communism, colloquially referred to as socialism, being the new society established after the overthrow of capitalism, is a transitional stage in human social evolution and will give rise to a fully communist society, in which remuneration and the division of labor are no longer present. Leninism adds to Marxism the notion of a vanguard party to lead the proletarian revolution and to secure all political power after the revolution for the working class, for the development of universal class consciousness and worker participation, in the transitional stage between capitalism and communism.
- Monarchism: A monarchy (or kingdom, when ruled by a King or Queen) is a form of government in which sovereignty is actually or nominally embodied in a single individual (the monarch). Forms of monarchy differ widely based on the level of legal autonomy the monarch holds in governance, the method of selection of the monarch, and any predetermined limits on the length of their tenure. When the monarch has no or few legal restraints in state and political matters, it is called an absolute monarchy and is a form of autocracy. Cases in which the monarch's discretion is formally limited (most common today) are called constitutional monarchies. In hereditary monarchies, the office is passed through inheritance within a family group, whereas elective monarchies are some system of voting.

That same evening we were going to Seville, hoping to find the ideal Carmen. The cigarette-girls whom we met had, without doubt, inherited the combative character of that heroine, but unfortunately not her seductive charm. We had to content ourselves with taking some documentaries: the celebrated Giralda, the house of Adam, the sultan's garden and his bath of which, despite my encouragements, Anatole obstinately refused to taste the water.
