It's a Mystery: "The only species that is dangerous to humans is other humans"
The Nature of the Beast

Woman of the Dead
By Bernhard Aichner
Translated by Anthea Bell
Scribner, 2015
It is mid-September in Three Pines, the idyllic village just over the Canadian border, where Armand Gamache, the former Chief Inspector of the Sûreté du Québec, has retired. As the 11th Gamache novel, The Nature of the Beast, begins, he and his wife Reine-Marie are having drinks with their weekend guest, Isabelle Lacoste, Gamache's successor. She is trying to persuade her ex-boss to come out of retirement. She knows he's been approached by Chief Superintendent Thérèse Brunel to head up the division that oversees Homicide and Serious Crimes. The overture had come from Brunel several weeks before during a "social visit." As he told Reine-Marie:
"It's too soon I think…. But Thérèse has raised an interesting question. What next?"
…now had bled into next…. Next was on the horizon slouching towards them.
Then Laurent Lepage, a 9-year-old with a penchant for telling tall tales, turns up dead under circumstances that Gamache finds suspicious and it sends all thoughts of next to the back burner. The death follows hard on the boy's latest far-fetched—and disbelieved—tale of having found a humongous gun with a winged monster on it in the woods. Laurent's body had been thrown in a gully, his bicycle nearby. Something about the placement of the body is all wrong. More importantly Laurent's stick is missing. It was like a third arm to the boy. He was never without it. Gamache knows in his gut that this is no accident.
To find the stick, he lines up a search party that includes his former second-in-command Jean-Guy Beauvoir, who is now Chief Inspector Lacoste's right hand. Knowing what the boy meant to Gamache, Beauvoir has driven down from Montreal with the preliminary report on Laurent's death. Beauvoir married Gamache's daughter Annie last year and has all but kicked the addictions that plagued him for so long. The men's relationship, which has weathered more than its share of upheavals, has been on track since The Long Way Home from 2014.
On the second day of scouring the forest, they uncover a massive artillery device, a giant missile launcher pointing toward the U.S. And carved on it is a monster rearing up with seven heads on long serpentine necks springing from the body. Riding the monster is a woman. Gamache cannot take his eyes off the image. It is a reference to the book of Revelation. The woman is the Whore of Babylon, the Antichrist, heading for Armageddon. Gamache and Beauvoir take no comfort in learning that the boy was not exaggerating. To both men it's clear that the boy was murdered to keep the weapon a secret:
It took a certain kind of person to kill a child. Chief Inspector Gamache had tracked a few of them down in his long career. Fighting to find the murderer, but also fighting to keep his own repugnance, his own rage at bay. Fighting to keep the thought of his own children out of an already complex and volatile mix.
That was the problem. They were the most difficult murderers to find, not simply because if they were willing to kill a child, they were willing to do anything, but also because the emotions of the family, the witnesses, the friends, the public and the investigators were heightened. Volcanic. It could obscure the truth, warp perceptions.
And that gave the murderer a huge advantage.
It was also the kind of murder that could pull a community apart.
Acutely aware of this, Lacoste and Beauvoir set up shop in Three Pines. The team, with Gamache "unofficially" on board, begins to delve into all the questions arising from this behemoth/monster's existence. Why was it hidden? Who in the world built it? What was it really meant for?
Then, much to Gamache's horror, John Fleming, a heinous criminal from his past, rears his ugly head with a connection to the weapon. He is a serial killer locked away for eighteen years in a facility for the criminally insane. His most sadistic acts Gamache has never revealed to another living soul—not even Reine-Marie. The Fleming link adds an even darker dimension to the instrument of destruction that confronts them.
The inimitable Penny has fashioned a novel with global scope, spanning decades and implicating many in Gamache's always compelling coterie. She is a virtuoso when it comes to laying bare the deepest secrets her multi-textured characters harbor. The Nature of the Beast is a spellbinding puzzle, equal parts mystery, morality tale and conundrum.
As an ardent fan of Louise Penny, I was pleased by her pre-pub review of Jade Dragon Mountain, calling it "an amazing book—truly wonderful. …Elsa Hart and her protagonist, Li Du, deserve a place in every collection." This is an elegant debut novel that enchants us from the very beginning, when the exiled imperial librarian Li Du arrives in the city of Dayan, the last Chinese town before the Tibetan border. It is 1708, five years since Li Du was banished from Beijing for innocently consorting with traitors. Now an itinerant scholar—"I am more content when I am traveling. It is not my habit to remain long in any city"—he has come upon Dayan where his cousin Tulishen is imperial magistrate.
Li appears before Tulishen, as he's required to do, "to register my presence upon arrival in a new prefecture." This done, Li wants nothing more than to be on his way. He has learned that It is barely a week before the Kangxi Emperor responsible for Li's exile will arrive for the triumphant conclusion of his year-long progress through the Qing empire. What is more, the Emperor has announced that he will cause a solar eclipse on the day of his arrival. By his command, there will be a great festival to celebrate the eclipse. Hordes of foreigners have descended upon the city. It becomes immediately obvious to Li that for Tulishen hosting the festivities is a source of great anxiety—particularly since the Emperor's entourage includes a contingent of Jesuits that are Tulishen's responsibility:
Members of the intellectual elite, of which Li Du and Tulishen numbered, were aware that for many years it had been the Jesuits at court who had provided the Emperor with a yearly calendar of astronomical events. Their calculations had proven reliable and accurate to the minute. Naturally, public acknowledgment of their role was forbidden as it would tarnish the pageantry of the Emperor's predictions.
It had fallen to Tulishen to organize the unprecedented event in an area known throughout China only for its disease and barbarism. He would be blamed if the Emperor were disappointed.
Tulishen requests that Li stay and sort out what the foreigners are up to. Of course, the request is actually an order. Li assures himself that it is only for a few days. He barely gets a few hours before Brother Pieter, an elderly Jesuit astronomer who had attached himself to the household, is found poisoned. Everyone except Li Du is eager to have the death written off as natural. Li goes at the investigation tenaciously. Incurring Tulishen's wrath. He ignores diplomacy in his pursuit of truth.
He turns out to be a remarkable detective. He is highly observant and astonishingly prescient when it comes to ferreting out evidence. He is almost unwittingly assisted by Hamza, a storyteller of dubious origin, who spins dark tales. Li doesn't lack for suspects, and Hamza is among them. There is the exquisite, inscrutable Lady Chen who serves as the magistrate's first consort (he has a number of wives in Beijing). Also, a Jesuit botanist with a hidden agenda, an embittered old servant, and an English representative of the East India Company eager for trade deals. Add Tulishen's young secretary, who is a little too accomplished for his own good. Finally, Li can't leave out Tulishen. Needless to say, it takes more than a few plot twists for Li to solve the case. And it's a solution worthy of Judge Dee, the detective who was to ancient China what Sherlock Holmes is to us.
Elsa Hart's Jade Dragon Mountain takes us into an exotic, unfamiliar world. She skillfully navigates the web of connections attendant upon the internecine court politics of the time. She spins her multilayered tale delicately like silk strands in an intricately woven tapestry. It's a completely captivating debut.
For a total change of pace, consider Bernhard Aichner's Woman of the Dead, a grisly revenge saga set in Innsbruck, Austria. Brünhilde Blum is the adopted daughter of two parents from hell, Hagen and Herta owners of Blum Funerary Institute:
Unloving parents. A silent mother who never hugged or kissed her, and a father who made her do things no child should ever have to do. …She'd been made to lay out the dead since she was seven.
Eight years ago her parents drowned in a boating accident while she lay on the deck ignoring their cries for help. Unusually resilient because of her unspeakable childhood, Blum sheds her hated first name and begins a new life on her own terms. Now she is happily married to Mark a respected police officer and is the doting mother of two little girls, Uma and Nela. She has modernized the Institute and is flourishing as a successful undertaker. Then one morning as she is watching Mark go off to work on his motorcycle, a large black car comes out of nowhere, runs Mark over and speeds away.
At first Blum is paralyzed with grief, but she channels it for the sake of her girls. She forces herself to work each day and finally summons up the courage to go into Mark's study where she discovers evidence that Mark's death was no accident. She opens the file on his phone that contains all his saved conversations. After listening to a series of his interviews with a young immigrant woman named Dunya, Blum knows that his death is linked to his investigation into this young woman's experience as a sex slave:
Twenty conversations with a woman whose experiences are unimaginable. Conversations that Blum should never have heard…. They met over a period of two weeks. Their last meeting was on the day before the accident.
Except that it wasn't an accident. Blum knows that she must find Dunya. Against all odds she finally tracks Dunya down and manages to get her to open up. The story she tells is like a horror film about five men imprisoning her and two others for five years:
Five men. The photographer, the priest, the huntsman, the cook and the clown. Dunya has described each of them. The photographer tied Dunya down to the table and raped her, taking photographs all the time. If she turned her head away he hit her.
As it turns out, these evil men are notable figures in the local community. Blum vows to track them down and exact revenge on Dunya's abusers and Mark's killer. She is the avenging angel hell bent on making them pay painfully for what they have done. Not for the faint of heart, Blum's retribution is swift and uncompromising.
Bernard Aichner's Woman of the Dead is a brutally intense thriller. It's as compelling as it is unsettling, with a thoroughly satisfying double whammy ending.

My last post was about the benefits of travel; I have since spent the last three weeks traveling in Colombia and would like to add one more benefit: Traveling reminds us to appreciate what we have! I write this post knowing that I run the risk of sounding like it was not a good trip or like I am complaining. I intend to do neither. We had a wonderful trip seeing new places and visiting family. I would not change a thing about the past three weeks, however that being said, as the saying goes, "There's no place like home." Over the past three weeks I learned to appreciate:
As much as I LOVE to travel, and will continue to travel, THERE IS NO PLACE LIKE HOME!
Check out my personal Memoir: https://www.smashwords.com/books/view/443897?ref=famchucho
- Having a bedroom that I do not have to share with my kids! I love my kids to death, but I do not love their random verbal outbursts while they sleep, Camryn's feet resting on our bed because she is being crowded out by her siblings, Zahara's teeth grinding and body thrashing, or Malekai's sound asleep crying. Three weeks is too long to sleep in a room with all of my kids, I have a newfound appreciation for separate bedrooms.
- A Double Bed. Some people have asked me how I can stand sleeping in a double bed with my husband...Isn't it too crowded? Don't we need space? I have always said that we like to sleep cuddled up, a queen would be too big. As much as I love to cuddle up at night, a twin bed is TOO LITTLE for two people to sleep in for three weeks! I love my double bed!
- Good Pillows. At first Pablo and I shared one pillow...That. Did. Not. Work. Next we took one from the kids (with all their thrashing about they don't stay on them anyway). Both pillows sucked! That. Did. Not. Work! Finally we broke down and bought two nice pillows...ahhhhhhh. Never underestimate the value of a good pillow.
- Spacious Cars! We traveled using a combination of taxi's, buses and cars. The buses were fine, except we tend to be cheap on our trips and did not want to buy a seat for Malekai, so he was constantly on my lap. The taxi's and cars are small in Bogota, so where ever we went I had at least Malekai, if not him and Zahara on my lap along with Camryn and a cousin or two pressed up against me. I began dreading any plans that involved getting in a car. It was so nice to get home and sit without anyone touching me.
- Short lines. We spent a large percentage of our vacation in lines...at the bank, at the grocery store, at the airport etc. We expected this and luckily the kids were very patient, but I will always from now on breath a sigh of relief every time I step into a short line.
- Country Living. Bogota is a very large city. There are definitely some perks about being in the city (every thing is very accessible, there are many parks, sidewalks to walk on etc.) However, being in the city reminds me how much I love the country. I love the fresh air, the uncongested roads, the green grass and trees, the friendliness of the people, the slower pace of life, the larger sizes of almost everything (cars, yards, houses, sandboxes, trees...), the quiet and darkness of night, the quiet of early morning. It is fun to visit the city, but I think I will continue living in the country.
- The Intimacy of a Nuclear Family. It was great to spend time with Pablo's family. We shared a lot of good memories and the kids had fun playing with their cousins. Maybe it is just me, but I cannot truly be myself and relax when we are constantly with other people. It is not the other people, it is me. It is nice to be home with the five of us.
As much as I LOVE to travel, and will continue to travel, THERE IS NO PLACE LIKE HOME!

Make your writing simple, informal and direct. Become passionate about lapses in those simple principles. Ban them from all your writing.
A few examples...
'I am writing to you regarding your email' (not simple and too formal) 'Thank you for your email.'
'...ascertain the location of...' (not simple) 'find'
'a number of...' (not direct - almost meaningless) Try 'eight'. If you really want to say it's a small number, but can't be exact, maybe 'several'.
'when and if..' (not simple) Make a choice: 'when' or 'if'.
'as far as we are concerned' (not simple) Maybe, 'we believe', or just state it.
'we would like to apologise' (not simple or direct) 'we apologise'
'exact opposite (not simple) 'opposite'
'please find attached' (not simple and too formal) Maybe, 'I have attached' or better, 'The attachment summarises/outlines/describes/will show you...'
'...enclosed for your perusal' (perusal is a formal, pointless word. We are not sending a document so they can light a fire.)
'...for your consideration' or '...for your convenience' ( too formal and not simple - more pointless words)
'to conduct an investigation...' (not simple) 'to investigate'
A suggestion
Once your passion for simple, informal, direct language grows, resist the urge to share it with the world. We'll know it's a big issue, but most people will just think you should get out more.

Implementers of the biggest cash transfer programs, such as Pantawid Pamilyang Pilipino Program of the Philippines, Program Keluarga Harapan (PKH) of Indonesia, Bolsa Familia (BF) of Brazil, and Prospera of Mexico, gathered earlier this week at the Asian Institute of Management (AIM) in Makati City, to share how their respective CCT programs are addressing child labor in their own countries.
The gathering of implementers, dubbed, "International Workshop on Conditional Cash Transfers as Tools to Address Child Labor", was organized by the International Labor Organization (ILO) through its Understanding Children's Work (UCW) program, Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD), and the Department of Labor and Employment (DOLE). It brought to light the different cash transfer programs' characteristics, including targeting of beneficiaries and amount of cash grants, and how these impact on child labor.
It is also served as a venue to generate new ways to improve the programs' effectiveness in removing children from labor.
In her message during the event, DSWD Secretary Corazon Juliano-Soliman said that "in extreme cases of poverty, children are made to work to augment the family income, hence, they are denied the space needed to grow up in a normal, happy environment."
Child-labor free PH
To decrease the incidence of child labor in the country, Sec. Soliman said that the DSWD is strengthening its partnership with DOLE through the provision of employment opportunities to parent-beneficiaries of Pantawid Pamilya to ensure that they will not force their children to work.
Likewise, DSWD, through its Sustainable Livelihood Program (SLP), provides technical and capital assistance to beneficiaries who want to build their own entreprenurial activities, while it facilitates employment for those who want to have jobs by accessing them to different public and private agencies.
Sec. Soliman further said that through the Family Development Sessions (FDS), parents are educated on raising their children properly encouraging them to go to school rather than forcing them to work. Attendance to FDS is one of the program conditionalities.
FDS is conducted monthly by DSWD and partner-NGOs in coordination with the private sector and civil society organizations. It is a venue where topics on effective parenting, husband and wife relationships, child development, laws affecting the Filipino family, gender and development, home management, active citizenship, and electoral education are discussed.
"We can continue working together to fight child labor and build a brighter future for children. Our aim is to have child labor-free barangays," Sec. Soliman said.
Impact evaluation
Sec. Soliman added that the result of the 2nd round of impact evaluation on Pantawid Pamilya is leading toward the goal of child labor-free barangays.
It showed that the program has allowed children to prioritize education.
"The results of the impact evaluation also gave us a glimmer of hope, since it showed that Pantawid Pamilya children, 10-14 years old, work seven days less in a month compared to non-Pantawid Pamilya children," Sec. Soliman said.
She explained that while the program cash grants are not enough to completely keep children from working, it has made beneficiary-children spend less time working compared to their non-beneficiary counterparts, presumably due to increased time spent in schooling.
Cash transfers: key to eliminating child labor in other countries
Presenting the salient features of their respective countries' CCT programs were Director Leonardo Reynoso, National Program Manager of Pantawid Pamilya; Paula Montagner of the Department of Evaluation and Information Management, Brazil; Josue Vargas, Chief Information, Analysis and Evaluation Officer, Prospera; and Oktia Dwi Permana of Indonesia's PKH.
Montagner reported that the Brazilian Constitution adopted in 1988 prohibits any form of work up to the age of 13 years old while 14 to 15-year-old adolescents are allowed to participate in formal apprenticeship programs, as long as they keep attending school, while those between the ages of 16 and 17 years can work but still are subject to restrictions.
Since the start of the Bolsa Familia program in 2004, the number of child- laborers aged 5 to 15 years decreased from 3.1 million to 1.36 million in 2014, while those aged 5 to 17 years decreased from 5 million to 2.83 million from 2004 to 2014.
This showed that the program has been effective in increasing school enrollment and decreasing dropout rates, and has improved the prospects for generations of children.
On the other hand, Vargas said that in their country, the Federal Labour Law strictly prohibits minors under 15 years of age to engage in economic work and establishes the conditions under which those between 15 and 18 years of age may work.
According to his report, child labor rate in Mexico had constantly decreased since 1996. From 2011 to 2013 the number of working minors from 5 to 17 years old decreased by 17.6%.
The decrease in child labor is related to the demographic transition, which is changing the population structure, and the outcomes of public policies, particularly scholarships granted to minors for them to remain in school.
Prospera offers scholarships for basic education, senior high school, higher education, technical, non-formal education and training for work, and support for school supplies.
On the other hand, according to Oktia, the government has responded to the problem of child labor through regulation, social protection system, and implementation of integrated programs such as PKH, Kartu Indonesia Pintar/ Indonesian Smart Program (KIP), Withdrawal of Child Labor Program (PPA PKH), School Operational Assistance and Skills Courses (in Shelter).
Oktia said that PKH CCT has been found to have a significant impact on reducing the working hours of school children. It has also improved access to outpatient health services.
DOLE Undersecretary Ciriaco A. Lagunzad III and Furio Rosati, UCW Program Coordinator both emphasized that CCT programs hold a lot of potential in combating child labor in the countries where these are implemented. # Source – www.dswd.gov.ph

text: It was a job that seemingly had everything an assistant college basketball coach could want: A high level of competition on the court and along the recruiting trail; a national profile of high-risk, high-reward; and, of course, great weather year-round. But former Notre Dame assistant coach Lewis Preston packed up and left his position last spring at the University of Florida after only two years to take a similar position at Penn State. His move, which was finalized the same day -- May 31 -- former Notre Dame athletic director Kevin White left for Duke, came as a surprise for many, but not to Preston. "I've always been a gut and heart guy," the 38-year-old said from his office in State College, Pa. "As you move through this, you get a bigger understanding of what's important in life. The most important thing for me right now is the opportunity to grow as a coach. "In my gut, I wanted to be here." He is with a Penn State program that annually finishes near the bottom of the Big Ten. A school that has been to the NCAA tournament only three times (1991, '96, 2001) since 1966 and one where many care more about what happens on fall Saturdays than on those cold, winter weeknights in the shadow of Nittany Mountain. That's OK for Preston. When Penn State coach Ed DeChellis crossed paths with Notre Dame coach Mike Brey on the spring recruiting circuit, DeChellis mentioned that he was in the market for a new assistant coach. Brey said he might have just the right guy. When DeChellis called to gauge interest, Preston was excited by the idea of returning his family closer to his wife's Pittsburgh roots; of working with a coach he got to know during their days in the Southern Conference; of chasing his dream of being a head coach; of joining a program where he didn't have to scramble to maintain excellence, but instead help chase it. "I'm excited about what we're doing here, and the chance to do something special," he said. "It was an opportunity for a bigger challenge." Life in the Southeastern Conference moved a little too fast for the easy-going Preston. He learned about the business side of basketball when left with an uncertain future after Billy Donovan accepted, then ultimately declined, to coach the Orlando Magic. Not that his time in Gainesville was wasted. He helped the Gators win a national championship in 2007, and tutored arguably one of the most talented college teams in recent memory. He'll be forever grateful, and thankful that Donovan chose him when longtime Gator aide Anthony Grant left to become a head coach at Virginia Commonwealth. "It was a great time in my coaching career," Preston said. "In terms of Xs and Os, I felt like I got my PhD at Florida, but I wanted something else. "Life is good." GameDay guarantee The idea was first floated during the tail-end of the 2007-08 college basketball season, back when Luke Harangody was shocking everyone en route to Big East player of the year honors and Brey was quietly earning his second consecutive league coach of the year award. Bring ESPN College GameDay to South Bend next season, said former Irish coach and ESPN college basketball studio analyst Digger Phelps, and he would guarantee a sellout. It's something that has never happened for the hour-long show that airs at 11 a.m. on winter Saturdays. Now that GameDay is set for a Jan. 24 visit before the Notre Dame-Connecticut game, Phelps refuses to back off his prediction that he can fill the arena regardless of the early hour. Bump into him in the hallway of the Joyce Center, or see him on the floor before a practice, and Phelps is quick to remind anyone that that day could be, and should be, something special. "I expect 11,418 to be the building that day," Phelps said. "I expect every dorm to be there. I expect South Bend to be there. You look at where (GameDay has) gone and what we've done, Notre Dame has arrived." That's something Phelps plans to share with his fellow GameDay analysts Jay Bilas (a Duke graduate) and North Carolina's Hubert Davis, as well as host Rece Davis, an Alabama graduate. "I've had to listen to Bilas and all that stuff about Duke," Phelps said. "I've had to listen to Hubert Davis and North Carolina and Rece and Alabama. "It's time I can say, 'Guys, this is Notre Dame.' I'll have that place in a frenzy." Brey has often had to remind Phelps that it's just one in a host of games that comprise what he insists is the toughest schedule in Notre Dame basketball history. Tip-off for the Jan. 24 game is 7 p.m. -- two hours earlier than usual for the College GameDay prime-time game. Notre Dame turns around 48 hours later and hosts Marquette on ESPN's Big Monday, a contest that could have even more impact on the league standings.

Such a good link up idea by Helene from Helene In Between & Sarah from Venus Trapped in Mars. If your not already involved I suggest you get cracking and follow the hashtag #GuiltyTotalSocial for this months My Guilty Pleasure link up.
Let the embarrassment commence:
1. I am THE biggest Hollyoaks fan. I've only been following the show for a year now but I am totally hooked! I can't get enough of the damn programme and am always on tender hooks until the last line of the episode which is almost always a DUN DUN DUNNNN moment! I literally scream at the telly and want to know what's going to happen for the characters next.
2. 'I'm Neesha and I'm addicted to Coke'. Coca cola that is. I drink the stuff every single day. I'm not proud of it and it's probably ruining my insides but it's the only thing I really enjoy drinking.
3. I love watching 'Fail Videos' & 'Scare Cams'. Extremely mean of me laughing at other peoples misfortune that happened to be captured on camera… but I LOVE it! I just love seeing peoples reactions! I feel like a terrible person right now.
4. I am also addicted to Mc Donald's. If they gave out gold cards for loyalty and long term service then I would be the proud owner of one. I probably have had a Mc Donald's a week since turning 16. It's always the same thing that I get though. A Big Mac Meal with a Coke and a free student cheeseburger! Alllll the burgers for me <3
5. I love 'Boo' The worlds cutest dog. If I could decorate my home anyway I liked I would dedicate one room just to Boo. He is so damn cute and just seeing a picture of him makes me want to cry. He's been my phone background for years. I also have a little plush toy of him, a calendar, a lunch box, a mug and his book! Completely and utterly obsessed with a dog!
6. DISNEY! Need I say anymore? Well I will anyway. I love every disney film ever made and intend to one day own them all on DVD. It may take a while and a fair amount of money but the goal is there waiting to be reached. My all time favourite disney film is The Little Mermaid.
7. I collect fridge magnets. Since moving into my own home two years ago every time I go on holiday I buy a fridge magnet with that countries name on to add to my collection. I've also asked close friends and family members that when they go away to somewhere I haven't yet been that they get a fridge magnet for me. Hopefully one day my fridge will be covered in them from places all over the globe.

- albatross (noun)
- \AL-buh-trawss\
- What does it mean?
- 1 : any of a family (Diomedeidae) of large web-footed sea birds that have large slender wings, are excellent gliders, include the largest seabirds2 a : something that causes persistent deep concern or anxiety b : something that greatly hinders accomplishment : encumbrance
- How do you use it?
- Camilla feared that pre-calculus would make it difficult to keep her average up, but it didn't turn out to be the albatross she expected it to be.
- Are you a word wiz?
The albatross is a magnificent seabird known for its graceful way of gliding, yet its name has given rise to some very negative figurative meanings. Which of these is the origin of those negative meanings of "albatross"?Imagine how difficult it would be to get around with a huge bird tied around your neck. That was the predicament of a sailor in Samuel Taylor Coleridge's 1798 poem _The Rime of the Ancient Mariner_. In the poem, an old sailor --the Ancient Mariner-- relates the story of how, during a sea voyage, he shot an albatross that had been accompanying the ship. The voyage was thereafter beset with disasters. His shipmates punished him by tying the bird's carcass around his neck. The Mariner was finally freed from his burden in the moment that he recognized the beauty of the creatures in the sea.

B-12 Spray
Methylcobalamin, Vitamin B-12, is a member of the B-complex family of water-soluble vitamins. Of the various forms of Vitamin B-12 available, methylcobalamin is more bioactive than cyanocobalamin, which has to be converted by the liver to the active coenzyme form of methylcobalamin before it can function in the body.
with Betaine
Digestive Enzymes with Betaine is a natural dietary digestive supplement specifically formulated with bile, active digestive enzymes, and betaine which acts synergistically to assist in the healthy functioning of fat, protein, and carbohydrate digestion.
Buffered Vitamin C contains 100% pure, corn-free vitamin C (L-ascorbic acid), specially buffered with calcium and bioflavonoid complex.
Vitamin D promotes intestinal calcium and phosphorous absorption and reduces urinary calcium loss, essential mechanisms for maintaining proper calcium levels in the body and for healthy bone composition. A positive role for vitamin D in supporting colon health has been suggested. Overall, vitamin D is believed to provide general cellular support potential, including for breast and prostate tissue.
Ubiquinol is the active antioxidant form of CoQ10. It has an additional two hydrogen atoms and comprises the majority of the ubiquinone/ubiquinol pool in the plasma of healthy subjects. Ubiquinol may be important for older individuals or individuals who appear not to respond to regular CoQ10 supplementation due to poor conversion of CoQ10 in the body. This formula supplies 100 mg of CoQ10.
Hyaluronic Acid is a vegetarian dietary supplement to support joint and connective tissue functions and skin health. Hyaluronic acid is a natural moisturizing agent and is essential for the structure of the extracellular matrix which keeps the skin moist and supple. Hair, Skin, and Nails (RF) provides a complete formula of vitamins, minerals, and nutrients which have been shown to support healthy hair, skin, and nails.

Steve Ballmer unveiled his massive reorganization plan for his Redmond Empire, but it seems that the CEO of Microsoft may soon find himself having to deal with an activist investment firm on the company's board.
ValueAct Capital Management, as you may recall, bought a $2 billion stake in Microsoft in April this year.
And while there was speculation back then that the head of ValueAct, Jeffrey Ubben may mount an effort to get rid of Ballmer as CEO, he said that he had no plans to interfere with future strategies of the technology titan.
But now a new report claims otherwise.
Citing insider sources close to the matter, Reuters claims that ValueAct has begun talks for a seat on the company's board. What is not clear, however, is whether any major changes are already planned or not.
Word is that investors are not entirely happy seeing Microsoft pushed towards a devices and services concept, and this new strategy is not considered the right away forward for the technology titan.
Neither ValueAct nor Microsoft have as of yet commented on the claims.
But if true, this would nevertheless signal a much more hands-on approach from ValueAct in regards to influencing Microsoft's future strategy. The report actually comes hot on the heels of the news that Redmond took a one time charge of $900 million because of the price cuts on the Surface RT.
The next year or so in considered vitally important for Microsoft as it the company puts into action Ballmer's reorganization plan. Either way, the next twelve odd months promises to be rather interesting.

This is my newest one. The overall feel of this one is like an action movie. Maybe more like a horror-action movie, but you get the idea. The adventure is hard core old school. It is compatible with S&W: White Box but like most of the OSR adventures it can be used with just about any rules. The file is a pretty simple affair; 19 pages, line art. So nothing too fancy, but the aesthetic is very, very old school. It looks like something your older brother's friend who was the first kid in the neighborhood to play D&D might have made; only a lot better.
The adventure itself starts with a simple set up and encounter (I like adventures that make the players DO something right away) and then that simple encounter leads to a confrontation with an evil cult. Shenanigans ensue. The adventure takes a few cues from more modern adventures and separates encounters. The effect this has is to keep the action flowing. If this were a movie it would be Raiders of the Lost Ark or, more aptly, The Temple of Doom. At just under $2.00 it is also perfect for an afternoon when you want to play something but don't have an adventure ready to go.
For myself I might make some minor changes here and there. Snake Goddesses are fun and all but what if I need a Wolf Goddess or a Centipede one? It make a great introduction for some characters that have already been through one adventure and are their way to the larger plot brewing. I say grab this one and use it this weekend.

For five years, Bernard L. Ward has been behind bars for a murder he denies committing.
Today, after five days of testimony, an Anne Arundel Circuit Court jury will decide whether it agrees with him.
In testimony yesterday, defense attorneys presented testimony from a handwriting expert, Lyndal Schneyfelt of Alexandria, Va., who said that legal papers filled out in the Leon County Courthouse in Tallahassee, Fla., on the day of the slaying were in Mr. Ward's handwriting.
Mr. Ward's ex-wife, Karen Stewart of Baltimore, had testified that on Nov. 16, 1988, Mr. Ward accompanied her to the courthouse in Tallahassee, where he filled out papers petitioning the court to award her custody of her two children by another man.

At right is a picture of a HiWheel bicycle going down the steps of the US Capitol. The rider whose name was long ago lost to history, did this as part of a stunt to prove how much safer this design was to the HiWheel configuration, big wheel in front, small in back, that dominated the self propelled world back at the turn of the last century.
As I've said before in here, this style vanished from the marketplace the same year it was introduced as a safer HiWheel Really a high performance Penny Farthing, if improvements to the chain hadn't come along as well as the pneumatic tire. this is the bike we'd all be riding today.
As for today's ride, even though at 2:15 AM I told my Facebook friends I was still up working my TransAm ride because rain seemed likely today and thus no riding, I rode anyway. At 7AM the skies were clear enough for me to try to out my rebuilt brake!
You see, I was at Matt Christy's home shop until 9PM and didn't get home until 10 as he lives in San Mateo, twenty miles away. To get there. I took one of my rare rides in a car. And yet there again, I've been in Jeff Kistler's truck two times in three weeks now. Ugh... It was Jeff who took me to Sacramento to get the bike and it was Jeff again who took me to get the brake fixed. I just found out today that Dave Hershberger here locally had been sick all weekend long and that was why I had not heard back from him. Jeff, pictured below, put me on to Matt to get the weld I needed.
And what an honor and a privilege it was to have access to Matt's world. A few years older than myself, he and his awesome wife, Sue (pictured above), both graduated from my alma mater, Cal State Hayward. Matt had done a lot with his life since college. He owned businesses and property in many different places and was semi retiring into the world of older steel bikes, the ones you can still work on.
As we (mostly Matt) measured, cut and filed, Matt and I also talked about old bicycle times and the sad drug induced state of present day bicycle racing affairs. And it didn't take me long to realize that I was in the presence of two two wheel giants. While everyone accepts Jeff as one of the top bike mechanics in the area (and so by extension, one of the best in the nation if not the world) and it was obvious that Matt knew he was in hallowed company, Matt himself was a top local racer who had won some pretty challenging races. He had also competed all over the world with and even won against some of the best. And he did so at at a time when bike racers lived on table scraps and not corporate sponsorships or surreptitious blood manipulations.
Not only did Matt engineer a little sleeve to join the two broken brake pieces but after we got it silver soldered back together, he then machined a bushing and new bolt and washer for where the lever affixes to the handlebar. One more reason why I had to get it out on 4 and 1/2 hours sleep. The whole assembly does not rattle any more and it operates like a Swiss watch like the rest of the bike.
We also talked about the pedal/foot connection. Matt pointed out that Adidas shoes tend to run narrower and that I should look into that. I told him that he was right as that is the kind of shoe I was now wearing. Still not affixed to the bike as tightly as I'd like, we discussed this further. Jeff pointed out that I can not just use modern pedals because their axle shafts are not long enough. Before I ask Jim Spillane if he can make me some new ones, I am going to see if I can make these Power Grips work that I have from recumbent guru, Kelvin Clark, of Angle Tech Cycles,. I will be sure to keep you posted!
Matt also marveled at how short my crank arms are. By his measurement, he came up with 150 mm! And indeed this is whoaaa when you consider that average crank length is in the 170's. While he thought more length would help me on the hills, I told him it would cause me to spin far too much on the flats.
I rode maybe 15 miles today as my late start gave me a lot of traffic that kept requiring me to stop. However having a brake now meant I could sprint for the tail end of green lights and stop if I came up short. Wow I had been missing that.
I also tried some no hands riding. I need to master that so I can stay on the bike while I do things that require both hands. For example. it warmed up enough that I took my jacket off today and tied it around my waist. And yet in order to do so, I had to stop. Bummer......
I also hit a pretty gnarly pot hole that was covered by rain water. And I got to see how the bike handled that. No problem. It did surprise me though.
Before I go off curbs however, I am going to see what my HiWheel elders are saying......
So much to learn - so little time to learn it.....
Boston here we come.....

Would you feel more confident with whiter teeth?
We will help you
Over time, as we age naturally, there is a reduction in the amount of collagen and elastin in our skin. Dynamic muscles movements, such as smiling, frowning and laughing cause the skin to crease and wrinkles to appear.
Horizontal lines across the forehead, frown lines, crow's feet around the eyes, saggy cheeks, jowls, thin and lifeless lips, sagging around the mouth, deep nose-to-mouth lines can all be corrected within minutes! Skin can look rejuvenated, more youthful and fresh, yet still look natural without surgery, without pain and without time off work!
Deep line and wrinkle treatments relax the facial muscles, preventing the formation of wrinkles and smoothing out fine lines, wrinkles and folds. Our genes, fatigue, stress, smoking, sun damage, pollution and other environmental factors can accelerate the rate at which collagen and elastin is lost from the skin, causing premature ageing, folds in the skin, and a lack of radiance. Skin loses moisture with age. This inevitable moisture loss creates lines around your lips and nose and reduces fullness around your cheeks, jaw and lips, giving us an older, more tired look.
Deep line and wrinkle treatments work only on the specific muscles injected, leaving surrounding muscles to function as usual, enabling normal facial expression, just with less wrinkles.
Ravinder . Dr Varaich has been extensively trained in this field, and has helped countless patients regain a youthful, radiant and natural look.
By carrying out a skin analysis, Ravinder .Dr Varaich will discuss the benefits of the different treatments available, and how your confidence can be boosted with some simple, but very effective treatments with minimal discomfort.
Dysport is a prescription medicine which works to temporarily weaken or paralyse the muscles which cause dynamic wrinkles on our face, such as those that appear when we smile, frown, and raise our eyebrows. It is an extremely effective treatment, and results last approximately three months.
I feel so much younger after my skin treatment! I can't believe how natural it looks! And my migraines have gone! I'm hooked!
Helen Roberts, Scunthorpe
An ultra-fine needle is used, so pain is extremely rare. Mild discomfort is expected, but most patients report that they hardly felt a thing!
Dysport take approximately five days to show an effect.
No! Not at all. The procedure takes only minutes to perform, and most people have the treatment carried out, and go straight back to work, and no-one need know a thing! No-one will be able to tell you have just had treatment done!
I never thought my facial treatment would look so good, but still look so natural! Everyone keeps asking whether I've just been on holiday! It's great! Why didn't I have this done before?
Michelle Seaton, Hull
No! Certainly not! Dr Ravinder Varaich feels it is so important to keep a natural look. When deep wrinkle treatments are done well, you should look fresh and youthful. Very few people want a face that cannot show expression, or looks as if the skin has been pulled. A face showing no expression or emotion looks odd. Our goal is to rejuvenate your skin, soften lines and to define and plump areas where volume has been lost.
Dermal fillers, such as Juvederm act to temporarily plump deep lines by acting as a scaffold in the deeper skin layers. They are made up hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring product in the body, which is used widely in medicine. Dermal fillers are used to soften deep lines and folds, such as the nose-to-mouth lines, define and plump lips, raise the corners of the mouth, plump out hollow cheeks and fill acne scars.
Dermal fillers are extremely effective at giving a natural, smooth, and more youthful appearance.
Juvederm is the first of a new category of dermal fillers proven to last up to 12 months. It is the first of its kind to contain an anaesthetic to make the softlifting experience even more comfortable than ever. Juvederm contains a specially formulated type of hyaluronic acid (HA) that exists naturally in your skin. It's a natural, biodegradable gel that flows easily and smoothly into your skin, instantly filling out those troublesome lines leaving a smooth and natural look and feel and a long-lasting alternative to surgery.
My special thanks to Ravinder for making me look 10 years younger! God bless you! I will be spreading the word about what excellent work you do! Many many thanks again!
Maureen Olssen, Hull
With dermal fillers such as Juvederm, the results are immediate! You will see the results as soon as your appointment is over!
The actual treatment takes approximately 15-30 minutes
We can administer anaesthetic, so the treatment will not be painful at all! Juvederm contains anaesthetic, so some patients find that additional anaesthetic is not required.
We've mentioned that hyaluronic acid is present in the skin naturally; it's actually a type of sugar, so the product itself is very safe! It has been used for numerous medical conditions over the years, including joint problems, eye conditions as well as skin lifting.
As with any treatment, there are a few minor risks. The HA is injected using a fine needle, and there is a risk of slight bruising, redness, bleeding or temporary discolouration at the area that has been treated.

Officials in three suburban Broward communities have alerted residents about aggressive and misleading phone solicitations:
-- Plantation fire officials are warning residents to beware of telephone solicitors who ask for contributions to the Broward County Council of Professional Firefighters, claiming to represent Plantation firefighters.
The Plantation Fire Department is not doing any phone solicitations and is not affiliated with those who are soliciting the donations, according to Martie Terziu, adminstrative assistant to the fire chief.
Residents who have questions can call 797-2150.
-- In Coral Springs, Fire Chief Bill Fyfe said this week that he has received several complaints about the tactics used by phone solicitors asking for money for Coral Springs firefighters.
Some of the callers were too aggressive in making their requests; similar problems have been reported in past years in the city.
-- Margate residents have also complained about solicitors who have said paramedics might not come to their homes in emergencies if they did not donate money.
Some of the calls are made by telemarketers on behalf of legitimate organizations that assist police agencies. Others are not.
Some of the calls have come from as far away as Georgia. The callers imply that police and fire rescue services will be interrupted or canceled if residents don't contribute.

Do you really want to send NightShadow a message saying you like their work?
Novel by: Dean Koontz
Genre: Horror/Thriller
Hardcover published: December, 2002
Paperback published: November, 2003
Published by: Bantam Books
Copyright 2002 by Dean Koontz
Two brothers and a travelling comedienne are teamed together through an accident of fate. Pursued by unknown assassins, the trio learn through experience and deductive reasoning that they have been the unwitting victims of a mad scientist's final swan-song as they run for their lives throughout the mid-west United States and the west coast. The mad scientist, immediately after he injected a mysterious substance of unknown origin into their bloodstreams, informed them that they now represent his life's work and, as such, their lives are in as much mortal danger as his own. Not precisely sure what to make of this man, other than the fact that he had violated them and their lives, they shortly bear witness to the man's fiery death at the hands of golf-apparel-clad henchmen they can only assume are the aforementioned assassins.
During their flee to both freedom and, hopefully, safety, they learn that the substance which runs in their veins, whatever it is, has a very peculiar effect on them. The girl, Jillian Jackson, experiences foreboding visions; the traveling artist, Dylan O'Conner, can apparently receive psychic impressions of the previous handlers of inanimate objects; and the autistic simpleton, Dylan's younger brother Shephard O'Conner, begins to show signs of change which would be considered nothing short of miraculous for an autistic person- and he can teleport through time and space.
These three, throughout the journey from bad to worse to unbelievably terrifying, not only explore their new "gifts" but also each other and the changes to their own psyches by this mysterious wonder-drug. What they learn gives them pause and, perhaps, offers Humanity a fresh look at where it may be headed.
Possible spoilers below in the review:
Like much of Koontz's other books, this one is less horror/thriller and more sci-fi/speculative fiction. What's more is that, while definitely adventurous, it doesn't really do much for a person's ability to suspend disbelief. I found myself wanting more precise and technical information on how the drug affected our heroes in such a drastic manner, how they could warp space and time and how they could adapt so easily under such extraordinary circumstances- barring the fact that this is, after all, fiction. And I also would have liked a better insight to nanotechnology as it might be applied in the manner described in the book.
Koontz managed to spin a decent yarn, but he ended up falling flat with the ending, in my honest opinion. His character development, as usual, was stellar and his narrative description was quite solid. But the finer details and action just seemed... hollow. I found myself turning page after page in the hope that he would provide me with better answers than he had, that he wouldn't leave the audience sitting with a nebulous idea of just what the hell happened. I read the story and I felt that he had either not written significantly important portions of the backstory or it had been maliciously edited out in order to keep the book a manageable length.
In short: I was left wanting.
That is not to say that this wasn't a fun and entertaining read- it was! I simply felt, as a member of the audience, like my intelligence had been slightly insulted, like I'd been extremely underestimated.
If you're looking for a quick, simple story that reads like it could work as next summer's blockbuster strangers-thrown-together-to-become-buddies-flick, then By the Light of the Moon should not disappoint. If, however, you're in the market for something with a little more intellectual oomph, you might want to pass it up.

A 'Tree of Life' sculpture made by a renowned local artist is set to be installed in a Rotherham charity's grounds.
The garden at Rotherham Hospice will soon welcome the piece by renowned Derbyshire sculptor Steve Mehdi, the man behind the Yorkshire Man of Steel project.
The Man of Steel will be a 30 metre high statue installed by the M1 to commemorate the area's rich steel history.
Mehdi's Tree of Life will be built entirely from stainless steel weighing more than 1.5 tonnes and will be three metres high and almost four metres wide.
"For a long time we have wanted a special commemorative artwork within the Hospice grounds which would enable our patients' families to remember their loved ones," said head of fundraising Colin Cawood-Campbell.
The hospice hopes to unveil the piece by autumn.

[a] 1 John 1:3 That which we have seen and heard declare we unto you, that ye also may have fellowship with us: and truly our fellowship is with the Father, and with his Son Jesus Christ.
Ephesians 3:16 That he would grant you, according to the riches of his glory, to be strengthened with might by his Spirit in the inner man; ver.17 That Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith; that ye, being rooted and grounded in love, Ver.18 May be able to comprehend with all saints what is the breadth, and length, and depth, and height; Ver.19 And to know the love of Christ, which passeth knowledge, that ye might be filled with all the fulness of God.

1 Corinthians 12:7 But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to every man to profit withal.
1 Corinthians 3:21 Therefore let no man glory in men. For all things are yours; Ver.22 Whether Paul, or Apollos, or Cephas, or the world, or life, or death, or things present, or things to come; all are yours; Ver.23 And ye are Christ's; and Christ is God's.
Colossians 2:19 And not holding the Head, from which all the body by joints and bands having nourishment ministered, and knit together, increaseth with the increase of God.
[c] 1 Thessalonians 5:11 Wherefore comfort yourselves together, and edify one another, even as also ye do. Ver.14 Now we exhort you, brethren, warn them that are unruly, comfort the feebleminded, support the weak, be patient toward all men.
Romans 1:11 For I long to see you, that I may impart unto you some spiritual gift, to the end ye may be established; Ver.12 That is, that I may be comforted together with you by the mutual faith both of you and me. Ver.14 I am debtor both to the Greeks, and to the Barbarians; both to the wise, and to the unwise.
1 John 3:16 Hereby perceive we the love of God, because he laid down his life for us: and we ought to lay down our lives for the brethren. Ver.17 But whoso hath this world's good, and seeth his brother have need, and shutteth up his bowels of compassion from him, how dwelleth the love of God in him? Ver.18 My little children, let us not love in word, neither in tongue; but in deed and in truth.
Galatians 6:10 As we have therefore opportunity, let us do good unto all men, especially unto them who are of the household of faith.

Core Offerings @ The Mill
Sunday Teaching
Statistically, your grandparents are likely to have attended church more often than your parents, who attend more often than you. We seek to challenge the present-day definition of "faithfulness" in regards to church attendance. Each Sunday, we gather to learn from and be challenged by the Bible. Across both locations, Lead Pastor Zach Burris and other capable elders and guest presenters bring an inspiring teaching, in person. While we will occasionally teach topically, The Mill believes in the power of expository teaching wherein we exposit, or expound upon, the text in a verse-by-verse fashion. Preaching happens during our normal service times at both of our locations.
Sunday Worship
Worship literally means "worth-ship." Everything we do on Sunday mornings—the preaching, singing, giving, sharing in communion—declares this: "God, you are our top priority. You matter to us. You are our treasure, our joy, and worth our time. We are not inconvenienced by You. We love you."
Jesus Loves the Little Children, a popular kids song, carries a ton of truth in just a few simple words. Jesus wasn't perturbed by kids. Rather, He loved them and cared for them! For this reason, we offer age-appropriate, Biblical programming led by qualified, passionate, background-checked volunteers for infants thru 5th graders each Sunday morning. We also have a number of events for children throughout the year, such as Vacation Bible School, Kids Summer Camp @ Spencer Lake in Waupaca, WI, and other fun outings. We believe that children are our very best investment and have hired competent staff to reflect this core value!
For Jr. & Sr. Highers in central Wisconsin. Nicole Barg, our director of Student Ministries, is passionate about sharing the love of Jesus. A gifted communicator, amazing event planner, and prayerful confidant, Nicole takes on current events and hot topics, encouraging teens to pursue Jesus in all areas of their lives.
The basis for this ministry can be found in 1 Peter 4:10.
Each of you should use whatever gift you have received to serve others, as faithful stewards of God's grace in its various forms
The Mill Church has been blessed with members and attendees with a variety of gifts and skill-sets. We have teamed together to form 4:10 Ministries and use these skills to serve others (single parents, the elderly, widows, & lower-income earning families). If you or someone you know is in need of a helping hand, we can be that hand!

Here's what I used for this look:
After exfoliating my face, I used Dior's Capture Totale Make-Up Base to prep my face for make-up. Capture Totale has subtle gold shimmer that gives your face natural-looking radiance. It dries fast and doesn't feel sticky.
Next I dabbed a bit of MAC's Studio Sculpt concealer under my eyes to mask the effects of insomnia. HAH.
To keep things light, I skipped out on using foundation and opted for MAC's Pro Longwear liquid concealer. I applied a thin layer on my cheeks, forehead, chin, and nose to highlight those areas. Then I used MAC's Studio Finish powder to set my makeup.
For my eyes, I used MAC's "Gilt By Association" mineralize eyeshadow. Swirled together it comes off more black than gold, so I didn't feel the need to apply another color. The only other things I used on my eyes were TheBalm's Jealous Jordana eyeshadow (as eyeliner) and MAC's False Lashes Mascara.
For my cheeks, I used MAC's "Love Thing" mineralize blush to give my cheeks a rosy glow. I also used The Body Shop's shimmer bronzer to give my face a sun-kissed look.
Then finally, for my lips, I decided use nude shades to keep the focus of my look on my eyes. The lipstick I used here is from L'Oreal's Aishwarya Rai line. Then I topped it off with MAC's Demure Dazzleglass Creme gloss.
Here's the finished look:

BlackBerry is reportedly planning to move the BBM server to Indonesia following a partnership that was struck with media group PT Elang Mahkota Teknologi (Emtek) in June, according to The Jakarta Post. The move does not come as a surprise, as Indonesia is among the very few countries where the Canadian firm is still enjoying popularity among retail customers.
BBM license now 100% owned by Indonesia
Matthew Talbot, chief executive of BBM, said that the Canadian firm is planning to move its server in Canada to Indonesia, and the process is expected to be completed in 2017, says The Jakarta Post, citing dailysocial.id. The process is still ongoing, but Talbot expects the infrastructure in Indonesia to be prepared to support it. He expects this move to provide a much better experience for users in Indonesia, enabling them to access the BBM service at a faster speed.
"The experience [factor] is very important," said Talbot. "We don't want to access the data through transatlantic cable. We would like to give [a] better messaging experience."
Talbot said that Indonesia is the "owner" of BBM now following a long-term cooperation between Emtek and BBM.
"The [BBM] license is 100 percent owned by Indonesia; why? Because BBM currently has been separated as enterprise and consumer services," the executive clarified.
BBM, in a bid to be an all-in-one platform, has launched various services in Indonesia, including BBM Travel, BBM Voucher, and BBM Shopping in collaboration with e-commerce firm Bukalapak.
BlackBerry boosts its security offering
BlackBerry also recently disclosed an upgraded mobile security offering known as BlackBerry Secure. This new offering combines the company's various security products into a single, integrated suite. The move should enable the Canadian firm to provide end-to-end security solutions to governments and businesses that want to protect their computer systems and mobile devices.
By integrating its multi-platform mobile device management software BlackBerry UEM (originally called BES12) with its various other products, the Canadian firm is simplifying the security offering with BlackBerry Secure, according to the Trefis Team. The system will include Good Dynamics (now BlackBerry Dynamics), AtHoc and Watchdox (a secure online document-sharing service), among others.
According to the Canadian firm, the different tools will be packaged more tightly from an integration and deployment standpoint. In addition, there will be improvements relating to cross-platform and collaboration support as well.
On Monday, BlackBerry shares closed down 0.58%. Year to date, the stock is down more than 16%, while in the last six months, it is up almost 11%.
