Victoria's Demon Lover
My review contains spoilers and they're mostly my thoughts as I went with the book...
All I know about Alia Bess from amazon is that she writes Historical Fiction under another name. But let me tell you very honestly, I think she should consider publishing MORE erotic paranormal stories because I simply loved Victoria's Demon Lover! I had NO idea what to expect when I went into it. The reviews had some certain warnings that didn't sound good. I was intrigued nonetheless. And when I started reading, I could hardly put it down. This story does have a demon, an incubus haunting the heroine, Victoria with some seriously hot smexing. That much is pretty straightforward from the blurb but the entire plot goes much deep and complex than your average raunchy demon erotica.
Victoria, an accountant, lives in a lake house, all alone. Apart from her boring day job, she has no real companionship to speak of. Her previous relationships were no strings attached things, and definitely unsatisfactory. Suddenly she starts experiencing these nightly visits by a demon. The story though, starts when Victoria has already gotten used to with the demon's visits. At first, it was said that she was scared but the demon would have sex with her no matter what. He was sometimes gentle, sometimes rough but never hurt her in his endeavor. Sometimes the pleasure is all about her and sometimes it's just his own. He comes to her in many shapes; apart from various human ones, in forms that she imagined for a demon or forms that just turned her on (like that big, red and horned demon, I'll leave you to read it how this shape pleasured her because it was something I never read, certainly would never have imagined myself! Lol). The only thing that gives him away is his glowing yellow eyes. Victoria has come to enjoy having sex with him. She even craves his touch at night, though in the broad daylight she doubts her sanity.
One thing the demon never did was to talk to her. He could read her mind, so if she wanted anything or any form, she'd get it if he was willing. One day, that changes. He comes to her in the form of a tall, broad shouldered man with sad brown eyes. He's got the body of a man who is accustomed to rough physical labor. She notices the round scar on his neck though. The demon tells Victoria that he has a favor to ask. But after hot sex, he just vanishes as he usually does, never telling her what the favor was. We see some more of his visits in different shape and hot and dirty sex with Victoria loving every moment of it. Only now, he talks to her.
Something happens soon afterwards, leaving me pretty dumbfounded. That day, Victoria was in the elevator, headed for her office. There was another man with her who works another farm. Suddenly, Victoria hears a voice and instantly recognizes it. That and the yellow eyes. She knows her demon lover has possessed this man. Before she could even comprehend anything, he is all over her. The implication, as it was seen in the CC camera, spelled nothing but rape. The man is convicted with solid evidence but he later commits suicide. Victoria is shocked, confused. WTF just happened to her life? She's financially compensated with a big amount but other than that, it seems ruined. She leaves the job, spending most of her days in her home, alone again. When the demon visits her next time, his answer is enigmatic. On this visit, the demon is dressed as a Roman soldier with a short body with thick, corded muscle. It seems like that man, Michael did something bad (even though he looked like an all around nice guy) and paid for it. The demon just made it so that Victoria gains something from it. It should've made me doubt him or hate him, but somehow I didn't. Victoria is definitely not happy with this answer but she apparently has no control of her life right now.
Victoria, thinking better to keep her sanity (she's still battling the sense that tells her this is crazy, the clash of reality and fantasy), decides to take up her older sister's plea of moving in with her two young boys. She was going through a rough patch and needed the support. But to Victoria, it was a form of keeping the demon at bay so that he can't torment her. But the demon warns her that nothing will stop him from coming to her.
On his next visit, the Demon comes as a beautiful Norseman with blonde hair; only in the place of pair of ice-blue eyes were his own yellow eyes. He reminds her of the favor and that he wants to take her to a journey of a lifetime. A journey that is about to take change her life.
Victoria finds herself in medieval Shrewsbury of England, in front of a small, cozy cottage. Apparently, this night, a young pair of lovers was there inside. The guy is big and broad with muscled body and the girl is a petit, dark haired beauty. Victoria doesn't want to pry but her demon tells her that they won't know. From the window, it appears that this is their wedding night. The guy, obviously a Blacksmith, if the things in his cottage are any indication, is gently wooing his bride, who was his childhood sweetheart, to let him make love to her. Jack, as he goes by, is very handsome. But when she sees his face, Victoria recognizes him immediately. This is one of her demon's incarnations, the one with rope wound around the neck! Nothing now, though. This Jack is very much alive. Maggs is scared of what's coming and Jack is a big man. Victoria decides to help Maggs and channels her own thoughts and direction for her so that she enjoys her first time. And in the process she finds herself in Maggs's body, being pounded by Jack (that was HOT, I loved Jack!). She even feels the pain when Maggs loses her virginity as if it's happening to her. When Jack finishes, his eyes glowing yellow, as if he knows that it's Victoria and not Maggs he's having sex with! Or maybe, they're the same soul only in different bodies.
Victoria returns to the reality. It felt like a dream but when she checks her body, she finds evidence that proved that she was certainly not dreaming. Nevertheless, she's very amazed and intrigued by who this couple is and what they mean to him.
When later, the demon comes to her as the Roman soldier, Victoria finds herself in the Roman era, dressed as a young concubine. She is now scantily clad, with a much shorter body and dark hair, in the middle of a room and Roman orgy. The demon is accompanying her. He works under Cestius, the General, the host this orgy. Lots of things were going on here, very raw, crude, loads of sex of every kind. Roman entertainment I guess! lol At one point, Cestius comes in with his own daughter, Julia. He wants Julia to have sex with one of the slaves who have been brought in to service the many guests; specifically the big Gaul man with red hair is the one in order to have a red haired baby. Victoria finds that she's being called to 'help' the slave to... er, make it stand. The demon urges her on. Victoria can't but get into her role, pleasuring the red-haired slave. Then he has sex with Julia in front of everyone present. Well, it was a mess of sort but somehow I was not disgusted by the way it was described. At the end, Victoria hears a scream, only to find that the demon has killed Cestius. When a stunned Victoria asks the demon what was that for, he says something like Cestius raped her while he was in chains, and he couldn't do anything about it, calling Victoria 'Maggs'.
WOW, that straight sent a shiver through my body because so far, I was as perplexed as Victoria about everything. After that, well, it was clear enough that the demon has some kind of attachment to Victoria or her other incarnations throughout the centuries. The pain and the misery certainly show through his yellow eyes. When her demon asks her about remembering something, Victoria can't. Nothing in Victoria's memory stands out. But one thing is certain, his visitations were not only to use her for his pleasure, to have dirty sex but it goes much deeper than that. Victoria asks him about what she needed to remember but the demon won't give her a complete answer. It's something she needs to figure out herself. But since she can't remember anything, the demon is really disappointed.
After that, he stops visiting her. Maybe he wanted to leave her alone at last, I don't know but when a few weeks pass without his visits, Victoria starts missing him greatly. It's not just the sex, but everything else; his whole presence that lend an aura and a meaning to her lonely life. A desperate Victoria begins to worry and decides to summon the demon (he's a demon so he can be summoned, right?) back. For that she needs something that can guide her. Victoria goes to this really old bookshop. On the outside it seemed deserted but when she was about to leave, an old man with white beard (like Merlin?? Lol) comes out and talks to her. Apparently the man had a bookshop here but just packed everything to move away as the business is not as it used to be. This man, Albert Magnus, seems to know what she's looking for and gives her a book on the intro, summoning etc. of demons and other unearthly creatures. He wants the book returned so he gives Victoria his card.
At home, Victoria reads the book; then drawing circles, she starts her summoning process with different candles and incense, uttering various names of the demons. Since she didn't know her demon's name correctly, the results were a bit of a disaster. One brought a big tree demon. This should've been creepy but I found the whole confrontation with that demon and Victoria funny. He wanted to have sex with her but Victoria informs him that she's already taken... umm sort of. Seems like this demon knows her demon, so he leaves her be. The next, she finds a harpy who craves shoes... yah, shoes! Victoria had to exchange a pair of her dirty shoes for a trip to hell. But the harpy doesn't help her further, just lands her there. It seems Hell is how Victoria always imagined it might look like. Then the harpy explains that it's all about her imagination. When the harpy flies away, Victoria meets another small, monkey like demon called Jasper. Her first meeting with Jasper was SO FUNNY, I couldn't help laughing out loud! But Jasper proved to be of great help. His fetish is also... yep, you're right, shoes! So much so that the description of shoes makes him want to... erm, lose himself........... *don't look at me*
Moving on, Victoria asks Jasper to take her to her demon. Jasper knows him and leads her to some places. She finds herself in a battlefield, and discovers Marcus's mutilated body. She's overcome with grief to see him thus. Jasper first takes Victoria to Rome, and through incidents she finds out what happened to her as Alana and the demon as Marcus. It seems like they were doomed from the start to never have a happy ending. Oh that broke my heart! She even sees how horribly Alana died of Cestius's tortures and how Marcus was chained and then was send to a battle that killed him in the end.
Then Jasper takes her to the medieval Norse land where Torgal, the handsome Viking used to live. She finds herself in a longhouse. The people there don't recognize her so she lies about being someone's slave or something. Then she finds out these people are holding someone here and the sound of beating coming from another part of the longhouse. Soon, the prisoner escapes... Torgal, only he's not as beautiful as he used to be, battered and bruised as he is now. When he looks at her, she sees that the ice-blue eyes recognize her instantly. Somehow, they make an escape. It was already quite cold. In their shelter, Victoria begs him to let her help him but Torgal, who had the demon in him now, tells her that she's only 'making things worse' by not looking at what she should be looking for. She shouldn't be here in the first place, to see him this way, his incarnations and their brutal ends, something he has been living over and over again for millennia. Torgal tells her that he'll send her back to the future. She can't help him from what's going to happen next; him dying in three days of an internal injury already going bad. His body would be found a few months later when the ice thaws. :( After a possessive kiss, Victoria finds that she's back to her house. This particular story made me cry because I couldn't imagine how badly things ended for Torgal. But there was another story yet to come that broke my heart... again.
After finding herself at her home, Victoria is desperate for answers. She tries to call Albert Magnus, only to find that there is no number in his card! When she calls him out loudly, her cell phone rings. Magnus gives her some useful tips but she has to find her own way. Victoria summons Jasper again, this time the little demon is scared of her demon. It seems like her demon has punished Jasper for helping her. But Victoria needs to know what happened to Jack because in all of her demon's incarnations, Jack called out to her the most. His dark, intense eyes and his shining love for his Maggs. Victoria forces Jasper to take her to Shrewsbury.
In Shrewsbury, she finds herself as Maggs, busy doing the household chores. Memories flood in and Victoria knows what she's expected to do. And then she sees Jack, working at his forge behind their little cottage and drinks in the sight of him. Finally, after so long... Things go well for a while and seems like Jack doesn't recognize the 'Victoria' in her. But no matter, his love for his Maggs is shining always; in his grin, his sparkling dark eyes, in everything. Victoria thinks she can live in this century after all, if she has a man to love her this way and when the sex is SO HOT with him. Being Victoria helps because Maggs was still a bit hesitant about sex. Victoria's memories help her become bold enough to go Jack crazy.
Jasper comes in one morning to warn her that bad things are coming and she should leave. But Victoria doesn't listen to him. She's drunk in her existence here. But....... *sigh* that 'very bad thing' comes in the form of the Lord and Master of that little village, a perv who loves banging or raping anything in skirts. No woman is safe from him unless it's a child, woman too old or homely. It doesn't matter if she's someone's daughter or wife or mother. Victoria/Maggs makes a very stupid mistake and catches the man's eyes. I don't even want to recount what happens to Maggs (Victoria feels every single thing she went through) and later, to Jack but that things take a gruesome turn. I felt sick, sad and miserable because my heart was breaking for them.
When Victoria is back to the present, exhausted from witnessing the past, sick to her stomach, feeling guilty for causing the deaths of three men who loved her, she finds Magnus waiting. Jasper, who was avoiding her before, is also here. Even though Magnus still tells her that it's her journey, he suggests the demon loves her so much (or did in his human forms), that he can't let go of the lives he has shared with her (or her other incarnations) in the past. The demon apparently has confided in Magnus, who thinks that his incarnations and histories without Victoria don't matter. Obviously, he wants somehow to connect her with their shared pasts (those 3 forms) to let her know how they've been and what they've lost. And maybe, he wants her to do something (that favor?) so that things change for them in the future.
After her return from those journeys, Victoria can now see what her demon wanted to show her. Magnus emphasizes that she should stop feeling guilty for the past and start taking action; like doing things that will change the course of the history in a way, so that she can save her three loves from certain doom and death. Victoria realizes that this might be her only chance to return them their happy, long lives because now she knows what she can do to subtly change the flow of the incidents that triggered their downfall.
Oh, I was glued, GLUED to the story till the end and kinda giddy at this point, while Victoria journeys back, possessing the bodies of Alana, Danica (Torgal's love) and Maggs to set things right. It was incredible to read that after each journey, she could visualize how that couple was finally able to spend a full life or at least was able to avert the imminent disaster, instead of dying so tragically without each-other. They had a chance at love and life which made me SO happy!
Back to the present, Victoria is still unhappy, thinking her demon might not return to her again. Then, oh the mother of all surprises! Albert Magnus... damn, I had a feeling! Even then I was grinning like an idiot to see him back. But the story just shuts there without any satisfying ending, or even a chapter to neatly tie things up. So I'm left with questions, like is the demon permanently back now? Has he become human again? Does he have a new name? What's next for them? I seriously hope and pray that there's a sequel in the process and out soon. I really need to know more of Victoria and his demon's journeys.
I simply LOVED this unusual and complex love story. It had an odd combo; hot, dark and funny, all at the same time. My only other complain apart from the ending, was the need of a good edit. There were some typos and such. Don't get me wrong, I was not bothered by them that much, still felt that with editing, Victoria's Demon Lover could be even better.
4.5 marvelous stars!
EDIT: I think a sequel is in progess, as this has a series title! YaY!!

It took me more than two weeks to get to this and I'm no cartographer! These are the limits of the region of Gévaudan, according to the data from the maps "by Cassini.
The first one shows the main roads and the main cities.
The second is a map of the province put on a map from today. There must be some slightly diffrences between the "real" map and I did because I did it at a too small scale, anyway it's wrong to say that the province "was located where today we find the Lozère". The county of Saugues was included, as well as two protrusions in the south of Rouergue and in the east of Vivarais.

What You Need To Know Before You Apply For A Personal Loan
Posted on: 9 August 2017
Before you start filling out an application for a personal loan at a place like Loan People LLC, you will need to make sure that you are well aware of the following points. This way, you will know what to expect and you will not be as likely to regret anything. Here are the things you want to consider:
There Are Two Types Of Personal Loans
Even though you may not be getting a loan to purchase something specific, such as a house or car, the lender may still request that you give them something that they can have on file as collateral.. This way, should you default on your secured loan, the lender will be able to take legal action to take ownership of whatever it is that you provided as collateral. They will then sell off that collateral in order to recoup the money that they gave you as a loan. Some items that lenders will accept as collateral include automobiles, ATV's, boats, and jewelry. If you do not have anything to use as collateral, you will want to apply for an unsecured personal loan.
You Might Need A Co-Signer
Lenders usually view personal loans as high risk and if you have bad credit, it might be too much of a risk for them to take. Therefore, they may ask that you come to their office with a trusted friend or family member who can sign for the loan with you. Usually, this will need to be someone who has better credit than you have, or possibly someone with more income or at least a longer employment history. Both of you will be legally responsible for the loan and if you miss any payments, you will impact their credit also. Of course, if you are able to improve your credit score by making timely payments on the personal loan, you might be able to apply for a refinance of the loan. At that time, you may be able to have the terms of the loan reworked and your co-signer removed.
You May End Up With A High Interest Rate
Since personal loans tend to be a little more of a risk for lenders, they tend to offer higher interest rates than they would for other types of loans. However, this does not mean that you can't shop around to get the lowest interest rate possible. Also, by paying off any small debts that you have lingering on your credit report, you might be able to quickly improve your credit score, which could then result in a better interest rate.
Always be sure to review the terms and conditions of the personal loan before you sign on the dotted line. This way, you will not have any confusion later down the road in regards to what the lender expects from you.Share

Good Evening Munchkins!
Today I will be telling you All About the Urban Decay Naked Palette. I have been the proud owner of this palette for nearly a year now and I finally have everything I need to tell you all about it. As I always say when I include this palette, I'm not sure if this is the real deal or not but I will simply be reviewing the version I own so please do not be alarmed if yours looks or appears different to mine and the swatches I will be showing you. I love writing these blog posts so I will now start it for you!
First of all, the packaging. I feel as if the Naked packaging is so statement and bold and I actually really like it! It's the only one I own with this type of faux fur effect on it which makes it really easy to grab if I'm just reaching around for it without really looking and it also looks really cool. After a lot of use, however, it can become quite rough and not feel as nice as it used to but that obviously depends on you – for some people it will mean everything to others it will mean nothing. The title of the palette is in gold foil which I really like against the brown; I also feel like it's a nice introduction to the colours inside as they are mainly brown and golds (which I am loving right now). It also has a magnetic shut which I really like as it assures me it is closed and I don't have to worry about it when travelling. Due to the size, it's not ideal for travelling but I do feel like it has every colour you could possibly need in it. I don't really know what material the packaging is but it feels sturdy so I know it won't break easily. It also has a little mirror in the lid and comes with a full-sized Urban Decay brush. When I first received this palette, it came in a box/unicarton as well.
Within this palette, there are 12 colours; 9 shimmer and 3 matte. All of these are super buttery and creamy and so easy to work with. The shades that are shimmery are packed to the brim with glitter (much excitement!) and they all appear so pigmented. I do always use a primer so this does help the colour stand out but there are also some that seem bolder when the brush is damp (I will let you know of these as we go along). I think I'm going to get on with each individual colour for you now.
The first colour is Virgin. This is a pale, ice/shell-toned, shimmery pink that looks stunning for everyday. I personally love a pink as an everyday look as it's just something a little bit different to a typical white. I personally find this pigmented enough just with a normal brush and primer. This also looks stunning as a brow bone/inner corner highlight if you want a little bit of colour there.
This next shade is Sin. This is another shimmery shade but is a much cooler-toned brown with silver shimmers in it. It looks slightly warmer when swatched but it is also quite neutral and sheer so if you want to test some form of shimmery colour, this could be the one for you! It's not that noticeable on my hand but on top of a primer it does look beautiful for a daytime look.
The third shade is Naked and is this matte, yellow-toned nude colour. It looks much more white in the picture and then when swatched it looks quite brown, but it's somewhere in the middle on the yellow scale. This is just a typical base colour that can come in handy literally with any makeup look.
This next colour is Sidecar. Yet another shimmer, this is a slightly darker, warmer-toned brown that for some reason looks really dark in the pan. This is one that you can just use as a wash of colour for day-to-day with a little bit of eyeliner and be good to go. I would also say this is a slight level up from Sin for when you have a bit more confidence.
This colour, Buck, is one of my all-time favourites. This is a simple, warm-toned, matte brown that I live for. This is, usually, my go-to crease shade as it creates a gorgeous, natural shadow (as you can tell!). I feel like I own hundreds of these shades but this blends out so nicely; it's 100% my favourite!
The middle colour is Half-Baked, which I actually included in a blog post the other day! This is another shimmery shade that I have previously described as 'blonde Labrador' – but do you see what I mean?? It looks really white in the pan but when swatched and applied it has a much more gold-y/champagne-y undertone to it which I also love for everyday!
I've only just realised that the next half of the palette is significantly darker that the first half, so these are the ones I probably use less on a day-to-day basis! I do wear this one, however (I can just about get away with it!). This is Smog and is a gorgeous bronze-y/brown shade that really makes blue eyes stand out because of that bronze undertone. This is also shimmery and is pigmented enough with just a brush, which I love when I'm just chucking it on for a wash of colour!
This is one of the shades I haven't yet tried due to it's darkness but I would love to next time I go on a night out! This is Darkhorse which is an earth-y toned brown/black with some cool undertones. This has some shimmer in it but not too much to overpower the colour of it. I will definitely be wearing this in a smokey eye soon as I have a fair few parties coming up!
This next colour is one I have recently fallen in love with! This is Toasted and in the pan it looks quite intimidating with the red and the pinky undertones but when swatched it just has this gorgeous pale bronze/rose gold kind of vibe which is very on trend right now. I also love this as a wash of colour but I do find this applies better either with a damp brush or with a dry brush then a finger to go over top. I will show you how to wear this without it looking too scary soon, I promise!
Hustle, fun fact, was one of the first colours I used from this palette! Although this is shimmer-y, I have used this on the outer third of my crease to darken up a look before and it has looked beautiful! This is a slightly warmer-toned, dark brown shade that I actually live for in a smokey eye! This does apply as strongly with a brush, as well.
This penultimate colour is another I haven't yet tried but will do for a navy smokey eye, I'm thinking! This is an almost black shade with some slight blue undertones and very little (if any) shimmer. I will be testing all the colours I haven't before soon, by the way, and let you know how I get on! This could be worn really beautifully, though, I'm thinking!
Gunmetal is the final colour in this palette and is actually stunning. Again, I don't think I could wear this to school so haven't actually trialed it on my face yet, but when swatched it is beautiful. This is a mid-blue shade with darker undertones and a shiz-ton of shimmer that also reflexes in different lights. I have been hinting at a navy smokey eye tutorial and that will be coming soon, I promise you, and this colour is definitely my inspiration for it! I feel like this will be worn a lot over Christmas.
Finally, price and availability. As I think everyone and their mother knows, Urban Decay is a high-end brand and is not cheap! This palette retails for £38.50 on Feel Unique. I feel like that is a bit extortionate but you do get what you pay for and, as a complete makeup addict, I feel like I had to have it in my collection. It does include some stunning neutral shades but I feel like if you're only going to wear those shades, you're much better off looking around for a dupe instead because there is no point spending that amount of money for half the palette. Personally, I do love this palette and I would pay that much but that's because I know that I would need it in my kit and I will use all of these shades at some point.
Would I recommend it to you? Yes, but only if you can afford it! Maybe save some money up or ask for it for your birthday or Christmas because it is very expensive for some powders. Obviously money means different things to different people but this is something I would have to work for for at least 14 years in order for my parents to buy it! I'm joking but it did take a lot to convince my Mum to buy it for me last Christmas!
And there we have it! I hope you have enjoyed this blog post – I do love writing All About's so let me know what other palette's you would like me to write about! Also, don't forget to let me know what you think of this palette if you own it for yourself or what you would like to see more of!
Thank you so much for reading and I'll see you Sunday,

St. Alban's Baseball
Spring Season Registration
Baseball is back! The spring season begins soon, and registration is open now.
Teams available for girls and boys age 5 through 13.
Coaching certification is March 30, 11 a.m.-3 p.m.
Practices begin in early April.
Season opens Saturday, May 4, 2019.
Register in person at St. Alban's, 4601 N. Emerson Ave., Indianapolis
Dates to be announced.
For years St. Alban's Episcopal has been known as the "church with the baseball fields."
Three fields hosted hundreds of children, maybe thousands, over many years. Anyone who played youth baseball in the 1970s and '80s seems to remember playing at St. Alban's. It was a huge and important part of the community.
Today, two fields remain. They and the concession stand have been renovated. We're excited to bring baseball back to northeast Indy. You are invited to be a part of this renaissance, as a participant, spectator or volunteer!

UK – Offering greater portability and a carbon footprint 80% lower than glass packaging, the new range of eco-friendly easy to pour, 1.5 to 3 litre pouches from Smurfit Kappa continues to grow in the wine market.
Pouch-up is a lighter alternative to glass with exceptional shelf stand-out, and a unique shape and finish designed to capitalise on retailers' prediction of strong sales increase of wines in cans and pouches.
The lightweight, free-standing beverage pouch has a 100% printed surface for branding, a dispensing Vitop tap that extends the life of drinks after opening and a carbon footprint of just 20% of a traditional glass container.
The innovative Pouch-Up does not require a secondary outer box and improves logistics by increasing the volume of liquid a delivery vehicle can carry and due to a reduction of raw material only 35g for 1.5 litre pack, there is significant transport and storage efficiency resulting in an improved supply chain. With a traditional glass bottle making up 29.6% of the weight of a litre of wine, Pouch-Up weighs in at just 2.3% of its filled weight, delivering a significant improvement in carbon footprint.
The new environmentally friendly Pouchup is easy-to-pour with its ultra-light, go-anywhere design, is lightweight to carry, easy to re-seal and is perfect for any occasion – at home or for outdoor gatherings including events, festivals and barbecues.
As well as being ideal for the wine market, Smurfit Kappa has developed the Pouch-Up for further applications such as cocktails and fresh fruit juices.
Kevin Heath, Sales Director, Smurfit Kappa Bag in Box, Ireland and UK explains, "This new 1.5 litre Pouch-up is already in use at leading UK wine packers, Broadland Wineries, who have taken delivery of a semi-auto filler at their Cawston, Norfolk wine filling facility.
"We believe Pouch-up is the shape of things to come, transforming the look of the wine shelves and aisles, delivering a lighter take anywhere pack with an 80% lower carbon footprint than glass packaging and which is already well established with leading retailers, including ASDA, who are launching four own label wine pouches priced at £9."

This Day of the Week is When Employees Are Most Productive (Plus 4 Productivity Tools)
Many factors come into play when talking about productivity: your work environment, office distractions, how much sleep you've gotten and even the day of the week.
According to interesting research from Accountemps, since 1987, Tuesday has been the most productive day of the week for employees, while Friday comes in as the least productive.
Check out the below Slideshare for more productivity findings:
According to this research, we should tackle our biggest projects that require the most cognitive energy early in the week, and save any smaller or tedious tasks for later in the week.
The study also found that between 4 and 6 p.m., most employees have already "checked out." Plan your day around this afternoon slump by scheduling important meetings and projects for earlier in the day. Leave the more mundane tasks like filling out reports or replying to emails for late in the day.
4 Tools to Help You Be Productive Every Day of the Week
In addition to this powerful knowledge, try these 4 tools to help supplement your productivity:
Asana: Asana is an amazing (and beautifully made) productivity tool to help teams stay on the same page at all times. This project management tool will save your team precious time by eliminating unnecessary meetings and serving as a central hub for all tasks.
Toggl: An insanely simple timer to help you block off time for important tasks, remind yourself to take breaks and track where you spend your time the most. There's been plenty of research to suggest that we work best in blocks of time with regular breaks in between (Buffer, HBR, Fast Company). Use a tool like Toggl to schedule these time blocks and reach maximum productivity.
Calendly: Scheduling meetings or calls can be one of the most tedious tasks for employees, usually taking numerous emails to get a time/date that works for all parties. Calendly is a simple tool that lets you schedule meetings in one click, avoiding the game of "email tag" by setting and sharing out your availability in a well-designed interface.
FollowUp.cc: Okay, we're a little biased. But FollowUp.cc is an amazing way to be more efficient any day of the week. Snooze low-priority emails until a later time so you can focus on the task at hand. Schedule emails to be sent at the optimal time. Send yourself a reminder for a task to show up in your inbox at the time that's best for you. Send and email and let us handle the follow up. The possibilities are endless! #GetProductive

Category Archives: Yin Style Baguazhang
Cheng Yougong – Huo Diange Bajiquan
Cheng Ting Hua is Cheng Yougong's uncle- Cheng Yougong trained and worked as a shop assistant in Cheng Tinghua's eyeglasses shop. Contrary to popular belief, many of the Cheng family served as elite instructors to the military (not qigong practice), including Cheng Youlong and Cheng Yougong. Cheng Yougong was the Baguazhang instructor of Zhang Xueliang (son of Zhang Zhuolin who Gong Baotian defended) and many Bajiquan fighters in the early 20th century. Hou Diange, the chief bodyguard of Emperor Puyi has a strong bond with the Cheng family. Cheng Yougong met Huo Diange during service in the late 1920s and frequently exchanged Baguazhang /Bajiquan knowledge. Cheng Qingxun learned Bajiquan from Huo (Yougong's nephew) and still called Huo Diange "Huo Shishu" (Hou Uncle), well into the late 20th century.
Drunken Master II – Yin Style Baguazhang Connection
Baguazhang Ground Game? – Feudal Arm Bar
Grappling and throws, groundwork has strong roots in Ming Dynasty China- in the era of heavy armor and knights. Most soldiers in feudal China served as peacekeepers, subduing an opponent on the ground for capture is a necessity in certain applications. Generally, ground fighting is limited if possible during melee situations against multiple armed opponents- however necessary for security purposes or last resort from injury on the battlefield. The feudal Shaolin Arm Bar is labeled as "Straddling a Horse" technique. Liu Jin Sheng in the pic is a Shaolin officer in the Shanghai days of William E. Fairbairn. It is a modern myth Baguazhang contains minimal knowledge of ground fundamentals.
Yin Style Baguazhang Pudao – Yin Yuzhang Saber Method
Yin Yuzhang, the son of Yin Fu is remembered for his cleaving Saber methods, utilizing an instrument less than half the length of the iconic Giant Baguazhang saber often instructed in contemporary times. Many Chinese scholars link the cleaving saber to the Pudao in feudal era. The Silky Pudao dates back to the Song Dynasty and remained its emphasis throughout the Qing Dynasty. China is an agricultural continent- the pudao is a rare instrument important to both civil and military airbenders for cultivating qi or vegetables. In feudal times, not everyone had clearance to carry long weapons in certain districts- due to government restrictions at that time. The pudao wielders modified the big knife into a short knife (separating the blade from the pole) and attached the blade to the staff during battle. Yin Fu's methods undoubtedly emphasize the importance of this long weapon, concealed within the Interlinking Body methods. Live Training Available.
The Golden Ratio – Martial Geometry
The golden ratio is a proportional relationship of numbers- dividing a line into two parts. The ratio of the long line to the short part is equal to the ratio of the whole line to the long section. The numerical ratio is 1.618 : 1 or 1: 0.618, which definition is that the square of the long segment is equal to the product of the full length and the short segment. As early as the sixth century BC, the Greek mathematician Pythagoras revealed there was a harmonious beauty in this segmentation state. Refined strategy in Baguazhang training is governed by the principle of the circle and square. Feudal structures developed during the formation of new movement patterns- enhance martial geometry according to the most perfect proportions of human body mechanics.
Dong Jun – Dong Haichuan's Ancestor
Dong Jun (1186—1233) is a famous ancestor of Dong Haichuan. The Dong family is renown for the ancient battlefield kungfu- which Baguazhang earned its reputation in feudal times. The real Dong Haichuan descended from elite military commanders who are also real people- serving the empire with great contributions to Mongolia and Beijing. Dong Jun is the first deputy marshal and Army General of the Yuan Dynasty, in the era of Kublai Khan. In 1232 he participated in the siege of the Battle of Beijing and died during airbending in 1233. Feudal Baguazhang masters deserve honor for their kungfu with accurate context– the modern Baguazhang sports promotions have shifted considerably from the origin systems.

Cleanse with a Spring in your Step
Tuesday, March 8th, 2011
It has been a long winter and some time since a chilly leafy green salad has seemed appealing. So after five plus months of stodge my body is actually craving a cleanse even if my mind thinks it's craving chocolate. In fact for me this uncontrollable urge to eat a huge bowl of pasta followed by a large apple pie shortly pursued by a latte and a praline truffle is a sure sign something has to change.
So before my insides slowly grind to a halt and my bottom permanently parks itself, I have in writing, by way of my diary, committed to doing a 7 day cleanse starting Monday. 5 raw days followed by 2 Just green veg Juice. My preparation usually entails me eating as much pastry in the week running up to D day so that I will be guaranteed to feel like death as I initiate the Detox. But I will endeavor to behave and have as of tomorrow decided to cut sugar and eat my dinner early. Nothing too traumatic. Not only does sugar cloud our brains it is lethal to the blood sugar and can play havoc with our health. The myth that we need Sugar for energy has been blown out of the water. There is an Incredible book called Sugar Blues by William Dufty that will alter the way you view sugar forever, bar the odd cocktail or dark chocolate of course!
For those of you who feel like you are wearing a winter coat you can't take off why don't you join me in some healthy days and start your Spring clean. From One day of fruit and veg, to 2 days Vegan or a week being veggie, what ever suits your lifestyle and helps you feel better. It should not be impossible and make you miserable, you should feel like you are honoring your body and respecting your life. I will post some recipes and ideas to help along the way so watch this space…
2 responses to "Cleanse with a Spring in your Step"
Thank you Laurella…brilliant as always (& beautiful site…!!!) (Miss you..!!)
I read sugar blues – great book. Not eaten sugar now for 9 weeks. It can be done. The first 3 weeks were hell though. Good luck.
You should also check out Weston Price and his studies. It will really inspire you. He was a dentist that noticed all the 'savages' seemed to have perfect teeth, yet civilized nations were suffering from a dental crisis. (The still are). Anyhow, he deduced it was to do with diet. Youtube him 🙂

A lot of people only feel that you can rent a car for only a shorter time frame, but this most definitely isn't the situation. The idea of long-term vehicle lease has really grown during the last few years. Many people may think that it is an expensive option, but the truth is long-term car rental has several benefits.
Flexible Deal Terms
Among the key benefits associated with long-term rental is the fact that you as well as you're the rental company aren't linked to a set term determination. The payments designed in easy to control monthly installments, you can forward plan your finances and costs. If your position changes you can return the long-term rented car without hefty penalty. Moreover, if your job changes, you change your address or city, or move to another area, you don't have to drag your car along. Instead, you can easily return the car and rent another one from the new location.
No Depreciation Costs
Everybody knows that when a fresh car is influenced off of the forecourt its value is suffering from depreciation. When using a long-term rental agreement, you don't need to worry concerning this. All you're spending money on is the utilization of the automobile and fuel. It's up to the rentals company to ahead arrange for the eventual car value.
Assistance, Support, And Honesty
When you remove an agreement with a well-established fleet, from which you seek the services, you can be confident that from commence to finish you will be recognized throughout the length of time of your deal term. Whether this is during a crisis or if you merely have a question about your mileage, a long-term agreement means long-term working relationships. A good car rental company in Dubai will stay in touch to answer your concerns.
A Wider Variety of Vehicles
When buying a fresh vehicle, your decision can often be limited predicated on your finances. However, this is not the case as it pertains to a long-term car rental services. Well-established car rentals companies give a selection of luxury vehicles that clients can hire. From dual control autos to refrigerated vehicles, minibuses to luxurious sports car and prestige models, there will be a vehicle to meet your requirements.
Good for Balance Sheet
Many large companies take good thing about long-term vehicle local rental, as it offers them more control over their vehicles, and increases their cash flow. It is because they are able to set your costs accordingly, predicated on the monthly premiums which may have been laying out in your local rental agreement.

Who Is Miss America Runner-Up Hannah Roberts? Miss Mississippi Is A Smart, Well-Spoken Future Surgeon
You may know her as a violinist, or you may know her as the woman who gave a bold and kickass answer during the Q&A portion of the Miss America pageant. But now it's time to give a new title to Miss Mississippi Hannah Roberts: First runner-up to Miss America 2016. She came in second place to Miss America (Miss Georgia) during Sunday night's telecast of the pageant after wowing the judges in the swimsuit round, the talent portion where she played the violin, and the Q&A where she eloquently and fiercely answered a question about Kim Davis with seconds to spare. But there's more to Roberts than just her great run on the pageant competition.
Roberts is originally from Mount Olive and competed as Miss University of Southern Mississippi in the pageant where she did win the crown, according to the Clarion Ledger. The newspaper states that as a child, Roberts never believed she would one day compete for Miss America, as she said she stayed in the "awkward stage for a long time." Once she grew up, Roberts graduated from University of Southern Mississippi as a Honors graduate in biochemistry where she was nicknamed "Chemistry Queen." While competing for Miss America, one of her voiceovers revealed that she had been accepted into medical school, but she deferred for a year in order to compete for the Miss America crown.
When it comes to competing in pageants, Roberts runs on a platform called "Pages For Love," for which she has helped donate more than 25,000 books to children's hospitals, shelters, and schools. After winning the title of Miss Mississippi, Roberts told MS News Now with that in 11 years time, she hopes to be a pediatric plastic reconstructive surgeon. "We actually don't have one in Mississippi right now. So I would love to do residency and come back and work in Mississippi and serve the children in this area who have cancer, have been in car accidents or born with birth defects," she said.
Considering her intelligence, poise, talent, eloquence, and clear willingness to help others, I can't help but be confident that Roberts will conquer medical school and get that dream career. We need more people in the world who have a public platform to stand up for what they believe in and give back — and doing that while rocking fierce fashion like Roberts did on Sunday night is just a bonus.

Child labor is often used to describe any form of work that may be harmful to children. Child labor means that children under the age of 18 years old are forced to work. The work that the children did in the early 1900s interfered with their education because it was during the school year. They worked instead of going to school so they could help to support their families. Children, typically ages 7-14, usually worked for 12 hours or more a day in dangerous working conditions. They worked in factories, coal mines, canneries, and also on farms.
Factories- In the early 1900s, children as young as six worked at the factories. Factories, which is a type of sweatshop, were cramped, dirty, and dark. The children typically worked for over 70 hours a week while being paid very little. Factory workers, called spinners, were on their feet all day brushing lint from the machines and tying ends of the cotton thread together. Doffers, also factory workers, would remove the the spinning bobbins, which consisted of a cylinder cone holding thread, and replaced them with empty bobbins. A lot of the young boys who worked as doffers were barefoot so they could climb up the machines to reach the high bobbins.
Coal mines- Typically younger boys worked as the breaker boys. The breaker boys sat on wooden boards that were placed next to chutes in the mine, that had come out of the ground. When the coal came pouring through the chutes, they would bend over, and pick out the pieces of stone and slate. The boys had to be very cautious. If they fell into the chutes they could easily be crushed. They then could be suffocated, and killed.
Canning- Children also worked in canning sheds where it was cold, dark, and damp. Most of the children who worked in the shed were ages 6-8 years old. Parents had usually wanted their children working at their side, so that they were able to keep a close eye on them. They had no place to leave their children, even the youngest and newborn babies were taken to the cannery sheds every day. Many dangers were associated with this job. Workers used large knives in cutting and chopping motions. There were many floors, and benches that are very slippery and, there was a lot of careless bumping that happened which led to a very large chance of an accident happening.
Land work (Farms)- In farm work, there were very little family owned farms with their kids working on them. Typically, families with children travelled from farm-to-farm working under demanding labor that harmed all of the family's bodies harshly. The child labor laws at the time didn't apply to farms so, the family had no protection. Also, this meant that any child of any age could work at the farm in any conditions for however many hours the owner liked.
Awareness and change- The children were paid very little or nothing at all even though they worked so hard. In 1900, 18% of 10-15 year olds were employed. There was very little awareness about child labor and no laws about child labor until the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) was passed in 1938. The FLSA was an act that produced the standards for minimum wage, overtime pay, equal pay, and child labor. It made sure the working conditions were safe and didn't harm the health and education of the children.
The Progressive Era also was essential to help ban child labor. The Progressive Era was time from 1890-1920 that progressivism (responses to social and economic problems caused from rapid industrialization) was introduced to America. Child labor progressivism started as social movements and grew to be political movements. This means that at first, the people were making movement about problems on their own, but soon after, the government got involved to help with these problems.
Child labor in the United States is illegal and isn't as much of a problem as it was in the early 1900s, but is still common in some parts of the world. Millions of kids worldwide in developing nation (India) are still suffering from child labor today.Children, starting at the age of 5, go to work for up to 20 hours a day for very little, or no money. A study from the International Labor Organization show that there is about 218 million children from ages 5-17 working (This does not include household work). Children are still found to be working in very dangerous places like factories, mines, quarries, and working the land.
Asia has the worst child labor problem today, (about 44.6 million working children out of ) with Africa not being much better (about 23.6 million working children). Most children are found in sweatshops, working looms and sewing machines to produce fabrics, and clothes in many developing nations. Between the ages of 10-14, some countries have a high percentage of working children out of children in their country. For example, India (14.4%), Bangladesh (30.1%), China (11.6%), Pakistan (17.7%), and Kenya (41.3%). The working conditions are dreadful, but children still work under child labor to help prevent their own family from going into poverty. Even though children suffer from working, India has a law about child labor under 14, but this law doesn't stand for family-owned businesses.

I'm sure most of us are familiar with New Moon, especially during Chinese new year because they are the number 1 Abalone brand in the market. New Moon has since expanded its product range to include more than 100 products through constant innovation and one of their latest offerings is the New Moon Inner Radiance Collagen Drink.
A couple of months ago, I was part of the R&D process for this collagen drink. The MFP bloggers including myself went through the blind testing of flavors, voted for the packaging and also a skin analysis after a one month's trial of the product to determine its effectiveness. We had totally no idea which brand was launching this until now.
Prior to the trial, I had stopped taking collagen drinks for some time. So it's no wonder that my skin wasn't in tip top condition. My skin's moisture, collagen and elasticity levels were not fantastic but neither were they that bad. My skin's age was 2.5 years younger than my actual age so I guess while that was pretty good, there was always room for improvement. Who won't want a better and younger-looking complexion?
The New Moon Inner Radiance Collagen Drink contains a whooping 13,000mg of collagen per bottle, making it the collagen drink with one of the highest dosage of collagen in the market as compared to other brands. It also contains Maqui Berry extracts. These berries have the highest antioxidant properties based on ORAC (Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity is a method of measuring antioxidant capacities in biological samples in vitro) value. Another essential ingredient in the collagen drink would be the active whitening properties (Glutathione) which would help you achieve a fairer complexion overtime through regular consumption of the drink. All these are evident in the thick viscosity of the collagen drink.
Wait a minute, a collagen drink that not only improves collagen production but also whitens? So what is this Glutathione all about?
Glutathione is naturally presented and needed by the body. It plays a vital role in detoxifying our cells, removing heavy metals, toxins and free radicals. All of which can damage our cells and significantly damage the quality of our cells, including skin cells.
Apart from that, Glutathione can help to improve the health of every cell in the body, particularly apparent in the skin, hair and nails. Giving people a radiant glow which is caused by healthy cells and reduced toxicity in the body. Age spots can also be minimized and prevented by enhancing Glutathione levels in the body. The anti-aging effects of Glutathione are remarkable, from complexion, age spots and wrinkles, there is very little that won't benefit from this master antioxidant.
Now after reading all of that, you must be curious about my skin analysis results. I'm elated to share that after consuming the New Moon Inner Radiance Collagen Drink for a month on a daily basis, my collagen levels have doubled and elasticity levels went up by 50%. Best of all, my skin age also went down by 6 months. Amazing, right?
Because it had worked so well for me, I would definitely be recommending it to my family and friends. In fact, it's introductory offer is so attractive:
The usual retail price is $69 but there would be a SG50 discount of 50% off from April – May. So you can now purchase it at ONLY $34.50!
I'm going to stock up a few boxes. These would make great gifts for the upcoming Mother's day too.
The New Moon Inner Radiance Collagen Drink is made, packed in Japan and certified Radiation Free. Each box contains 50ml x 10 bottles. So for a month's supply, you would need to get 3 boxes. One thing about this drink that I like is it's delicious tropical fruits flavor which tastes best when serve chilled. There is no fishy smell or taste at all.
You can find the New Moon Inner Radiance Collagen Drink at all leading supermarket, pharmacies, petrol kiosks and selected departmental store.
There's a special promotion on top of the SG50 discount. From 1st April – 31st May, with every purchase of 1 box of New Moon Inner Radiance Collagen, you would be entitled to participate in a lucky draw. 5 lucky winners with their plus 1 are able to choose between 5 pairs of return ticket to Japan (Tokyo, Osaka, Nagoya, Fukuoka). So what are you waiting for now? Go grab a box and try it out, you would be delighted by the results after a month

And it's not me.
As I wrote in my last post, Avery was sick over the weekend (still is) and my wife was out of town. I was exhausted. When my wife got home she hesitated to tell me because she knew the day I'd had, but eventually came out with it: she wants another kid.
Her primary reason is because she wants Avery to have a sibling. As an only child myself, I think that's a relatively unimportant reason for having more kids. I loved being an only child (still do), and I love watching Avery develop her independent play skills. My wife sees her playing by herself in the corner and feels bad for her; I see that and feel proud.
The thing is, my wife wasn't 100% on board with having a first kid, and I got my way (and my wife quickly got 110% on board once we had decided to go ahead with it). Now, I've agreed to concede to my wife's wishes on whether or not we have a second child. I know I'd also get 110% on board once we got going with the process. So… I guess that means we'll have another one?
But here's what's stopping us.
We'd want to have our second child through reciprocal IVF. Genetics has ended up being more — not important… what's the word… relevant? — than we expected. Although my wife loves our daughter to the moon and back, there's still a drive within her to see what her own biological offspring would be like. And she has less than zero interest in being pregnant or giving birth, and pregnancy and birth are experiences I'd be honoured to have again. The first time around, we were SO, SO, SO lucky to have an absolutely free conception process (except for the cost of some pre-seed and syringes). Reciprocal IVF, on the other hand, ain't cheap. The sperm would still be free (we'd use the same donor, if he would oblige us again), but that's a drop in the bucket (and there would be sperm processing fees). We are a single-income family right now, and I'm really taking forever to finish this PhD. I could honestly be another 3 years, and then have to find a job, and then work for a year before being eligible to take maternity leave.
Also, we have a two bedroom house, and the rooms are small. So small that it wouldn't be comfortable to fit a crib in our bedroom, or two beds in Avery's room. We would want to be in a financial position to buy our forever home before having a second child. That means me having a career. We don't even have equity because we rent this house from my mom. I have student loans. Just, ugh. Money sucks.
So that's where we're at. We're trying not to look at the biological clock ticking away, but… I'm 31 now, and by the time I could be financially ready for another kid I'll be at least 35. 35 is definitely not too old to have a baby (especially through IVF), but I'm worried it will be too old for me to take care of a baby. I already have trouble keeping up with this one 13 month old who can't walk yet. So I suppose we'll let time progress as it does and see how strong my wife's procreation-drive becomes. Definitely don't expect me to start blogging about a reciprocal IVF journey for another few years. But it's on the table, now, which is kind of a big deal.

Updated 23 October 2019. If you like anything here and want more, please support TEFLtastic.
I've always hated TEFL board games with dice ("Speak for a while with no particular purpose and then roll a dice to decide who actually wins the game") and now almost always play board games where their actual speaking decides how many squares students move. There are other useful speaking games with dice, however. Most of these involve challenging the other people in the group to come up with a good question on a particular topic, with a particular tense, with a particular exam format etc depending on which numbers come up, but first one good way of using dice with board games:
The most useful use of dice in board games
A much better use of dice than to move around the board is to decide what challenge students have to do to be able to go to the next square, and that is made better still if they make challenges for each other. For example in my Air Travel Challenge Board Game they make up six challenges that could happen at the stage of the journey represented by the square that someone is on (e.g. "One = the trolley breaks. Two = you can't find a trolley. Three = the trolley is too heavy to push. Four = you bump into another passenger. Five and six no challenge"), then the dice is thrown to see which of those situations they must successfully roleplay to be able to progress.
Other good speaking games with dice
Indirect questions dice game – NEW
Adverbs of frequency and times dice bluffing game
Different kinds of business communication dice game (Market Leader Intermediate Units 1 to 12)

Telephone, email or face to face functional language dice game
IELTS Speaking Parts One, Two and Three dice game
I wish/ If only regrets dice game
Communication challenges dice game
FCE Speaking Part One past, present and future dice game
IELTS Speaking Part One past, present and future dice game (the same as above but with six different times and some presentation of useful time clauses)
IELTS Speaking Part One dice game and questions brainstorming (new variation on and extension of the worksheet above with different times and topics)
FCE Speaking dice and cards game (this time with cards to give more of a range of topics and the dice including typical tasks from different parts of the Speaking test like "compare" and "opinions")
Sure there must be many other good dice games, so links below please – but any to board games where students "Tell us about your family" then could win by throwing a six however badly they do so will be instantly deleted!
Many more TEFLtastic classic games here.

Over the last decade the structural problems faced by CCAM have made it increasingly difficult to attract equity capital and have obliged many to undertake economic and financial restructuring. The most visible aspect of this process was an intensive wave of mergers: between 1993 and 2002, 64 mergers involving 143 CCAM took place (almost 70% of these in 1993 alone), with some banks being involved in more than one merger (Rebelo e Cabo 2003).

Helping Burnetts with their big move
It's always great to be called on to help companies with important projects.
One piece of creative can be used in many forms and we're used to adapting work to make print ads, business cards, flyers, billboards, animations. Anything really.
A recent commission for law firm Burnetts particularly appealed because, aside from creating all the artwork needed for their move to a new headquarters, we had the opportunity to work on some BIG branding.
To be precise, a six-metre wide statement image to be a central part of their eye-catching décor. It needed to represent Carlisle and show the firm's connection with the city.
For starters and a bit of inspiration we dug out our Monopoly set to see how the city's best-known landmarks were represented in the popular board game.
Further research narrowed down a choice of images which included the city's castle, a statue of 19th century mayor James Steel and the 290ft listed Dixon's chimney.
From this, designer Becca produced a montage of nine of the city's key landmarks. The work included us setting up and taking specific photographic shots of some of the sights to ensure consistency of lighting and style.
The resulting image was then 'splashed' with Burnetts' familiar pink and various versions were created to suit the ways in which the company wanted to use the image.
It now adorns a glass panel, cupboard doors and, in its largest form, sits six metres wide and 2.7m high. It's certainly got a wow factor.
The image was well received, and we were asked to design a similar montage for their offices in Penrith.
Newcastle and Cockermouth are to follow – time to get the Monopoly boards out again.

I was trying to come up with some interesting vehicle or critter for the air pirates to ride in the story I'm working on. I initially wanted bugs, of the beetle variety, but Ryan shouted that down. He doesn't like bugs.
So I settled for something in between, a sort of dragon-fly thing. They're actually kind of cute, in a Flygon sort of way.
Only mine have a stinger on their tail, scorpion-like. And they're all different colors. And they drink nectar, so they won't be, say, feeding on human flesh or anything. But they are immensely strong, enough to lift heavy loads or kidnap people. Hee.

A derelict building in the heart of Stockton is undergoing a £500,000 transformation.
Work has begun on the redevelopment of the Wellington Street property, an eyesore for the last five years.
It will now become part of the Wellington Square Shopping Centre.
Once complete the building will be a modern, attractive two-storey 1,850 sq ft retail unit, expected to be available to let from Autumn 2004.
Wellington Square Development Company last year purchased Number 5 Wellington Street, which has not been used since its former occupants The Phone In Shop left in 1998.
Since then the building's 60s-inspired exterior has suffered serious attacks from graffiti and the elements.
Rob Gildersleeve, centre manager at Wellington Square, said: "The substantial investment we are making in the building further demonstrates our commitment to Stockton and its people, and highlights our ability to see the wider picture by taking an interest in opportunities outside our core remit."
He added: "I anticipate the re-development will be welcomed by shoppers and I look forward to attracting interest from retailers when it is completed."
The building will be marketed as one unit with 950sq ft on the ground floor and 900sq ft on the first floor or as two units each offering 390sq ft on the ground floor and 400sq ft on the first floor.

Hi spirit guides! I would like to ask you about my daughter. She is 2 years old, and I would like to know if she will be successful in her life.
Dear Alicia,
Your daughter is surrounded by a number of light beings with adoring smiles on their faces, and the most prominent are three (yes, three!) angels.
Even though I'm not clear on what "successful" would mean to you, I'm pretty sure that your daughter will surprise you by having a life that's very different from what people these days would call successful, but which she will find exciting, enriching and – much of the time – joyful.
Obviously, she is blessed and watched over by unusually powerful and loving beings. My understanding from them is that she has a strong destiny, one that places her at some important intersections in the lives of many others. However, I'm told that whether or not she will be famous or rich is largely up to her, and her choices are unpredictable at this point. Let me tell you why.
Your daughter is one of several children I've read recently who have convinced me that we're headed for a major shift in values, much like what occurred in the 1960s, at about the time this new generation reaches their late teens and early twenties. The many predictions about changes coming at the end of the Mayan Long Calendar in the year 2012 notwithstanding, my sense is that our very young and soon-to-be born children are the ones who will be leading the way for tremendous and far-reaching changes in the way we humans interact with our world, the Universe, and the future.
This may not be what you wanted to hear, Alicia, but I'm very excited for your daughter, and for you.
