This month of writing continues with the second week gone and the gap between my actual production and my goal growing wider. I managed to have a large output at the start of the week using caffeine and enthusiasm and I hope for a resurgence this weekend but I will need to steadily push past my goals to get to my desired thirty thousands words by May 1st.
A thousand words a day shouldn't be that difficult, but I find myself writing about writing, reading, and blogging about others things like movies, politics, and sports rather than working on my fiction. The worst part is that my low output all week has led me to lose track of the story in my head, and it takes me a bit longer to get back into the rhythm of writing when I start up each night.
I have also not done a great job of separating out time to write. I haven't attended any write-ins and even had to cancel one at a local coffee shop. My most productive time was at an impromptu write-in at my favorite coffee house so I should set up a few more of those as the final two weeks approach.
I am hoping that as the impending deadline looms, I can use that for motivation. I'm not totally please with what I've written so far but it does help me flesh out some ideas and at least if I delete it later, I will have learned something about the characters and a path I won't take the next time I attempt to write this novel.
I'm having a pretty fun time overall and I can't wait to participate in the upcoming months on another Camp NaNoWriMo. I think they have one in June similar to the month I partook in last year. Any extra help motivating me to write is always welcome even if I don't go all in every time. I am really looking forward to the official month in November and have already started planning a new idea!

NEWPORT BEACH — Residents of a private island in Newport Bay are suing the California Coastal Commission to keep their pedestrian bridge from opening to the public.
The Coastal Commission contends that The Bay Island Club, an association of 24 homeowners on the tiny island by that name, must allow public access to the bridge if the club wants to replace the aging 130-foot span. It's a classic example of the struggle between private landowners and state government, which, since the 1976 passage of the Coastal Act, has aggressively protected the public's access to shorelines and waterways.
The city owns the man-made canal under the bridge, and the Newport Beach City Council voted unanimously Tuesday night to support the islanders in court. The island is about halfway down the Balboa Peninsula.
"Yes, it's across public property," said Councilman Don Webb. "But it really has no use other than coming on and off the island."

A CLEANER from Southport betrayed the trust of the family she worked for – by stealing from them.
North Sefton Magistrates' Court heard how Maureen May Parkinson, of Mellors Close, stole £70 worth of Tesco vouchers from the house she cleaned on Fell View. Parkinson pleaded guilty to the offence committed on December 1 last year.
Mr Page, prosecuting, said Parkinson cleaned for Stephanie Stoker, who kept the vouchers in a letter rack in the kitchen.
He told the court: "She was collecting them to use at Christmas but when she went to look for them she found that they were missing. A friend of the complainant said that if they were genuinely lost then Tesco would replace them."
Mr Page explained that when Tesco were informed they said the vouchers had already been redeemed on to Parkinson's loyalty card.
Mr Burke, defending, said: "Mrs Parkinson is someone who rarely gets into trouble apart from when she suffers from financial troubles.
"She is 43 and lives with her partner and her three children. She was suffering financial difficulties at the time she committed the offence.
"It was a low level theft and was an impulsive action although she accepts that she did wrong.
"She justified her actions in her own mind because they were vouchers – she said she wouldn't dream of taking money from the house.
"She didn't place the same importance on it and I think we can all appreciate this."
Chairman of the bench, Leonard Mann, responded: "I don't think Mrs Stoker would agree with that."
The court heard how Parkinson had previous convictions for benefit fraud and deception.
Parkinson was given a 12 month community order including 80 hours unpaid work, and was ordered to pay £70 in compensation.
She was also ordered to pay back a previous fine of £300.
Mrs Stoker said she was disappointed by the betrayal of trust but wanted to make no further comment.
She said she will be donating the money awarded by way of compensation to Queenscourt Hospice.

Test Cases for Validation of GCF RF NB-IoT and CAT-M
23 May 2017 – Keysight Technologies launched the Keysight Test Platform 195 which is the first and only test platform that includes RF NB-IoT and CAT-M validated test cases together in the Global Certification Forum (GCF). The test platform helps customers bring IoT devices to market faster.
During the most recent Conformance and Interoperability Agreement Group meeting, CAG#50, held April 25-26 in London (www.GlobalCertificationForum.org), the Keysight T4010S conformance test system reached first position in the sum of validated GCF RF NB-IoT test cases and bands as well as first position in RF overall test cases and bands coverage from Rel-8 to Rel-13.
Following Keysight's commitment with the CIoT market, Keysight is the only test platform that has validated RF NB-IoT test cases in all currently existing NB-IoT GCF bands and has become an essential test platform for RF NB-IoT GCF certification because it is the only test platform to provide validated test cases for bands 1,3 and 28.
"Keysight is honored to hold the lead RF position for NB-IoT GCF validations and to be first test platform to validate RF for both NB-IoT and Cat-M," said Garrett Lees, Senior Director, Keysight Wireless Solutions. "This demonstrates an example of Keysight's commitment to the CIoT industry, and we will continue providing the most comprehensive CIoT solutions for our customers as the technology evolves."
The Keysight T4010S test system is a complete solution covering LTE/LTE-Advanced RF and RRM to RF NB-IoT/Cat-M test capabilities according to 3GPP standards during different stages of the product development from early design and verification stages to the full UE certification. The integration of the Keysight UXM network emulator greatly simplifies the development and verification tasks helping customers bring reliable CIoT enabled devices to market more quickly.

CD Reviews
This IS Flipper.
Chet L. Young | 01/13/2006
(5 out of 5 stars)
""Blow'n Chunks"(the original, nine-song cassette on ROIR) was my introduction to the disturbing, amusical rumble of Flipper. I wore that tape out and then came across a copy of their debut, "Generic"...only to be sorely disappointed. In the studio, Flipper were a little too manicured, a little too controlled. Live, they were downright murderous!
The sound quality here is poor, yes, but that's irrelevant. If anything, the bad sound ENHANCES the vibe of Flipper's songs, giving them an extra-thick patina of rage, anxiety, and despair. The band sound as if they're performing from deep, deep underground, ranting furiously at the world above--a world in which they cannot take part. The versions of 'Way of the World', 'Shed No Tears', and 'Ha Ha Ha' contained herein are all vastly superior to the studio recordings, in my opinion; they grab you by the throat and refuse to let go.
Single most memorable moment: the introduction to 'In Life My Friend'. I defy you to listen to that bass line, that single, damaged chord being struck over and over, and not feel like the world is coming to an end. Flipper were brilliant.
Four stars 'cause it's Flipper...
Jack Dempsey | South Miami Beach, Florida | 02/14/2005
(4 out of 5 stars)
"Outside of that, the others have pretty much nailed it about the quality of this release. So why give it 4 stars? It's Flipper. What's Flipper? Well, when I was much, much younger, I won tickets to go see Flipper off KSJS (San Jose State's radio station) for knowing that FESTUS is the deputy to Marshall Dillon on Gunsmoke. The fact that *THAT* kind of trivia question served as my ticket to go see Flipper live should tell you what you need to know. If it doesn't, you'll never get it and you should just stick to buying Olivia Newton John records."
Roots of heavy indie rock
Christopher O. Neill | Chicago, IL | 01/28/2008
(4 out of 5 stars)
"Great sh#t. A good introduction to a great influential heavy punk band. I first heard of Flipper because Kurt Cobain wore their t-shirt when Nirvana played on a 1992 SNL episode. They really are a seminal grunge band, and more than that. Since 1982, Flipper was celebrated by rock critics for their classic, but tragically out-of-print Generic album. Blow 'N Chunks, a 1983 recording at CBGBs, is one of the few Flipper recordings that isn't out-of-print. Beggars can't be choosers, so all fans of heavy punk/post-punk(Jesus Lizard, Black Flag, Melvins, etc.) should check this out."

Discussion in 'Transformers Comics Discussion' started by Foster, Jun 18, 2008.
Comes out today!
Again, much like today's Wheelie Spotlight, I really enjoyed this issue. It was good to see the focus shift from Prime and his crew, to Hound and his (all the while updating characters from alot of the other Spotlights).
I always have, but I'm loving Sideswipe more and more everytime I see him.
The last panel made my eyes widen. Straxus!?
Who was the guy with Nemesis Prime on the far right, beside Jhiaxus? I didn't recognize him.
thats what i wondered...its NP in center, then jhiaxus to his right, then i dont know...
and the other way its galvatron, and kinda looked like deathsaurus too...but i'm not sure...
thats what i wondered...its NP in center, then jhiaxus to his right, then i dont know...
and the other way its galvatron, and kinda looked like deathsaurus too...but i'm not sure...
edit: he's straxus...looks similar though
I have no idea who the two guys are that are flanking the others on the last panel.
GREAT issue, though. Wish we could've had this as a 12-issue series instead of AHM. (Not that I'm saying AHM looks bad, just... not as interesting.)
The one on far left was Straxus. He was a low-level tyrant from Cybertron in the Marvel Comics. He was featured around issue #17 or so, and appeared up until Blaster managed to defeat him. I think he had a bigger role in the UK comics, but I'm not 100%.
He had a cameo as the security detail in Megatron Origins #4 when Starscream was on trial, which may or may not have been intended to be the same character, since the only two seen leaving the scene after that was Starscream and Soundwave.
Kinda cool seing the Autobots function as more of an intergalactic army. Hound has a ship and he has to keep his crew in line (okay really it's just Sideswipe). Prime making command decisions with real consequences.
Loved the scene with Prowl, Prime, Jetfire & Fort Max, but it took me a few more pages to find out "who was responsible?". (Jetfire's and Fort Max's exchanged glace cracked me up. I knew it couldn't be Jetfire,,, but Fort Max? Is he that badass in this version? Nah, the answer comes later)
What does Fort Max transform into in IDW's books anyway? He's much smaller than he's been portrayed in other books. He's about equal to Jetfire here, and although Jetfire has been about 20% bigger than Prime in the past, he only looks slightly taller here. Anyway, Max looks like he transforms into some sort of treaded vehicle.
Also I don't know if this is a nod to BW Depth Charge, but Magnus's ship looks like it could be his vehicle mode. Funny but kinda lame too.
Also the alt cover with "Animated Cyclonus" was VERRRY tempting, I went for the painted cover but man did ghoul Cyclonus looks good in the Animated style.
BTW did I mention how awesome and haunting Cyclonus looks in this book? Excellent work by EJ.
All around, very solid and tight issue that managed to pick up from multiple dangling threads. Hopefully, Furman will keep this pace for the last 3 since 4 issues seem kinda tight IMO for such an "epic" storyline.
i think the look between max+jetfire was sort of a "it must have been arcee" kinda glance,
i heard it was straxus, but it looks more like dethsausus to me....the other bloke is grindcore apparently,
also, im LOVING sideswipe in this, i was a bit wary that simon would screw him up after spotlight: galvatron, but he has him spot-on here, cocky, smug and doesnt giva a damn for hound.
the "you TELL him hound" line brought a smile to my face!
Brilliant start to the Revelations storyline... As said by Acid Wing, hopefully Furman can keep this pace going through the rest of it!
Thoughts of Cyclonus... A very well handled character, a good jumpstart for him. The scene with him against Hound's ship was a nice little nod to the scene in the original TF movie. Although he really ended up witht he same treatment as Galvatron in his arc in the end... Still, he's sure to reappear soon enough!
As for the other characters, nice to see Magnus, Hound and Sideswipe get more paneltime (Although Sunstreaker's attitude is grating on me a little), was hoping for more interaction with Jetfire and Fort Max, and a very scary Arcee probably set us up for another round with Monstructor pretty soon!
Brilliant last panel, showing off the rest of the Dead Universe crew... Nice one getting Straxus in there (I thought it was Liokaiser too), but disappointed they couldn't fit in Scourge. Who the hell is that on the right?
How do you figure? Grindcore has absolutely zero-similarity with the guy in the panel.
I find Thunderwing a bit... underemployed.
I thought that too. This dynamic monster that brought Cybertron to ruin, almost twice? He took both Autobot and Decepticon advances and kept coming. Now he's demoted to "security detail" for a glowing green rock?
I imagine the "Nega-Core" will have a very important role to play. Otherwise, they completely wasted an opportunity.
I'd have to look back at the previous issues, but it sort of looks like the last guy is Onslaught. Wasn't he part of the attack on the prison facility when they freed Monstructor? The chest plate is very Onslaught-ish, but other parts aren't quite what I remember from that scene.
Onslaught did lead the jail break to take Monstructor, but they were working for Banzaitron, not Nemesis Prime.
The colorist confirmed it over on IDW's boards, its a new bot by Furman's design.
Looks more like Lone Star's Winnebago to me.
Good start to the series. Yay for Straxus and Jhiaxus and...that other guy?
Although obviously we have yet to really see, I think that's supposed to make the statement that "These Dead Universe guys are so tough, they put THUNDERWING on GUARD DUTY." I mean, Galvatron laid waste to the Reapers with no effort whatsoever. These guys are practically unstoppable.
Oh! In that case, I give him two issues to live.
Separate names with a comma.

Sydney Anglicans ...just like their GAFCON African counterparts ...don't consider violence against GLBTI people as violence. This is apparent when they promote their GAFCON buddy Nicholas Okoh.
As reported at Erasing 76 Crimes...Nicholas Okoh, primate of the Church of Nigeria, "commended President Goodluck Jonathan for his courage in signing the anti-gay bill into law which has continued to generate reactions in some quarters in Nigeria and beyond. According to him, those not in support of the bill are like the biblical duo Adam and Eve, who questioned God for asking them not to eat the fruits from the Garden of Eden," Channels Television in Nigeria reported. Okoh said that disobeying God's instruction to allow marriage only between men and women would bring disaster.
The Anglican Church League reports that the ... Now, the deputy chairman of GAFCON, the Primate of the Church of Nigeria, Anglican Communion, Archbishop Nicholas Okoh, has called on churches to give priority to the (GAFCON) President's anti-corruption drive....
Archbishop Okoh told Nigerian TV that the behaviour of some public office holders was 'a huge disappointment' to Nigeria
Geezzze Bill...Some Sydney Anglicans just make you sick to the stomach...And these people see themselves as the keeper and propagator of God's word...so GAFCON is saying God's a hypocrit then? .....You not wrong there Calam...I wonder if GAFCON's Secretary Peter Jensen manages GAFCON's finances?

Entourage concluded—at least as a television show—last weekend and unfortunately didn't little to dispel for me my view of it as a franchise that peaked early and hung on too long, an opinion I get the sense even most folks who stuck with it the entire way seem to share. I don't think the show ever completely lost its way in the sense that you could still count on at least a few chuckles an episode right through the end and most of the cast plus several supporting players remained strong in their work, but it also had a nasty tendency to shoot for the moon and then always let you down.
It probably shouldn't be surprising that Entourage aired its best material early on, as the refrain in these past few seasons increasingly became that they were great at set up, not so hot at following through.
When Entourage kicked off in 2004, it was a story of Hollywood excess and escapism that entertained without making you think too much, yet approached it's material from a fresh perspective: We've seen countless shows and films about the young actor working for that big break and getting it in the end, but here's a story that starts out after those credits roll, where the kid has just made it and we get to tag along and watch him enjoy the spoils.
Those first two seasons and even the first part of three were really the golden age of Entourage. You've got a likable, quirky group of guys who you get to enjoy watching navigate the waters of business, friendship and the social scene in Hollywood. The conflicts and relationships are raw and you want to see what will happen with them, be it E's contentious dynamics with Ari and later Billy or how Vince is able to work around a failed tryst with Mandy Moore while filming Aquaman (that was a fun sentence to write).
The problems came as the show swelled in proportion and the priority shifted to bigger guest stars, bigger houses, bigger parties etc.; the characters didn't so much grow as they became too big to fail.
If you like your protagonists—and hopefully you at least have some level of affection for them—you're not generally rooting against them, but for the purpose of good fiction, some level of tension and doubt is necessary. At some point Entourage turned a corner where not only was there never any danger of the characters failing to achieve their goals, there wasn't even a question that the status quo would bounce back like a rubber band no matter what strain was put on it. You see it as early as season three when it only takes a few episodes for Vince to hire Ari back as his manager after a lengthy build to their "break-up" and it continued to permeate from there.
The breaking point for me was season five, where after Vince's "dream movie" Medellin bombs, he gets fired from Smoke Jumpers, he alienates E and retreats back to Queen to fade away, and he gets a call from Martin Scorcese out of nowhere to play the lead in a Great Gatsby re-imagining. It doesn't matter how compelling the first two acts of your story are or how much crap you put the hero through if his solutions come so simply in the end. There wasn't even a cliffhanger to end that season, everything was just fine with everybody, and for no real reason other than that things always work out for them.
From there on out, it was just impossible for me to really get invested in Entourage storylines. I thought there was real potential in Vince's self-destructive arc last season, but I never for a minute believed he'd actually be brought down for more than an episode (he wasn't). I wanted to get invested in Ari's divorce or E's umpteenth split from Sloan, but I knew the relationships would be resolved, and worse, I knew they would be patched up with very little explanation.
Even Turtle and Drama, who started the series as the lovable lazy loser and over-the-hill B-star brother ended up as a mogul savant and comeback kid respectively. Ed Brubaker noted on Twitter that there's no group of friends where every single person achieves the level of success the guys on Entourage did, and (now I'm more extrapolating) while the initial disparity helped make these dudes really feel like your buddies, their enormous shared fortune by the end really squashed that.
The finale was such a commentary on and microcosm of everything that went wrong with the series as it continued I'd be a little surprised if the creators weren't playing it at least a bit tongue in cheek (they used that "everything always works out for us" sound bite from earlier in the season too often in recaps and promos for me to believe they weren't at least somewhat self-aware and referential).
At the center of the episode was Vince's surprise engagement to Sophia. The storyline between these two introduced only a few episodes back was one that in simpler times I would have been intrigued by, as the idea of a strong woman was not interested in Vince and who he had to actually work to impress was a departure and contrast from his usual role as the pursued and Alice Eve played the part well. The lengths which he had to go to in order to even secure dinner with her set up what could have been an interesting courtship, particularly given how leery she was of him at first. It would have been interesting to see what he would have to do to ultimately win her over and if he even could.
When the finale opened, Vince had already gotten her to fallen in love with him over the course of a magical date that took place in between episodes, so we have no idea how he pulled it off nor do we ever get an inkling. It went so well that they're now engaged after knowing each other a few weeks, most of which was spent with her being cold to his affection.
I kept noticing the entire episode was Vince telling everybody about the impending marriage but Sophia never making an appearance, so I was holding out hope there would be an interesting last minute twist like she had actually said no and he was just trying to use this event to solve his friends' problems somehow or was having a breakdown, but nope, in the final two minutes she shows up matter of fact and ready to go get hitched in Paris, her previous objections to this guy glossed over as if she was a Stepford Wife, her dramatic change in stance never explained.
And that pretty much gives you the problems with Entourage the later seasons in a nutshell: Some fairly bold problems set up, but then when it comes time to solve them, they might as well all be settled "between episodes," given how flimsy the explanations always seemed to be.
The other big storylines of the season that hadn't already been dealt with before the finale were wrapped with similarly insulting ease. Ari's divorce, the seeds of which had really been laid the entire series, was swept under the rug as he made the same appeal he's been making to his wife all season, but for whatever reason this time she zigged slightly instead of zagging, so he quits his job and gets his family back; I'm not against the end result—Ari's a great character, I didn't mind him ending up happy even if perhaps the alternative might have been more interesting dramatically—but the getting there seemed so arbitrary. Similarly, E burned Sloan once again, this time by knocking her up and then sleeping with her ex-step mom, but while none of his various appeals all season have done any good, one talk from Vince and she's ready to give reconciliation a shot. These things don't feel like they happen because the resolutions were earned, rather it feels like they're resolved because the show is ending and the producers realized they only have so many minutes left to tape.
A lot of stuff was seemingly left open-ended for the movie that's supposedly to come including most of what I covered above, but while I know I'll go see that, I don't have much faith it won't be two more hours of the same circular progression to get back to the same happy ending point.
There were a lot of things to like about Entourage. Jeremy Piven owned that role as Ari Gold to the last second and made every time he was on screen magic no matter what state the rest of the show was in; Kevin Dillon as Johnny Drama wasn't far behind in that department. On the whole, the celebrity cameos were a treat and never really ran out of steam. The dialogue always rolled, from the writers to the cast.
But at the same time, whether you're talking about the show as a whole or just about every plotline past season two, the story of Entourage is having a great beginning, struggling with the middle, and being forced to end rather than finding their way there.

A Morecambe farming family has been named as champions at the national Excellence in Farming awards.
David and Annette Wannop, who farm with their sons at Heaton Hall Farm in Heaton-with-Oxcliffe, have been named as the national winners in the Dairy Feed Efficiency Award category of the ForFarmers Excellence in Farming Awards 2017.
The Wannops have made continuous improvements across the farm to increase feed efficiency, while looking after both cows and staff incredibly well.
A new silage clamp and slurry storage have been installed.
Solar panels have been erected and an outdoor bulk tank has been installed, cutting electricity bills in half.
A new sheer grab has enabled more accurate feeding and the management of the silage clamp face is exemplary.
The Wannops received their award at a ceremony at the Farmers' Club in London.
Henry Verwaijen, ForFarmers marketing director, who visited all finalists' farms, explained why they deserved this recognition.
He said: "The family have built up the business over generations and are continually looking to push the business forward.
"Excellent staff relations and a number of well thought out, key investments have helped build an efficient system. They really do deserve this award."
The Wannops win two places on an organised study tour in Europe.
Based in the Netherlands, ForFarmers is the leading European market provider of feed for the animal husbandry sector. It is the UK's leading animal feed manufacturer. Manufacturing, selling and distributing more than two million tonnes of animal feed per year, the company provides UK-wide coverage across all livestock species groups.
The ForFarmers Awards is now in its second year and aims to recognise and reward farmers that are excelling in one of the three awards categories: Dairy Feed Efficiency Award, Forage Manager of the Year and Youngstock Producer of the Year.
There were two southern finalists and two northern finalists for each of the three categories, with one from each being named as the overall national category winner.

Drawing on his unique investigations and access to documents, the author makes startling new disclosures. He uses previously secret ULTRA and MAGIC intercepts to reveal that Allied intelligence officers did have sufficient information to anticipate a big German offensive but, incredibly, they failed to do so. Through lucid personal accounts he has established that, however dramatic the fight for Bastogne, the most critical struggle occurred near Monschau, where a sparcely augmented single US infantry division halted the Sixth Panzer Army. Other new material includes interviews with survivors of the infamous Malmedy massacre and German commanders and foot -soldiers, as well as the experiences of civilians trapped by the Battle. He has investigated a mass of new information, much of it hitherto unknown or unpublished. His book blends a comprehensive interpretative account of the military campaign with the gripping story of what the people involved actually felt and experienced.

Meals On Wheels Issues Report on Hunger in Older Adults
Since 2012, Leonard Yakhnich has been the senior account executive for the Informatica Cloud Platform of the Informatica Corporation, where he is responsible for selling the firm's cloud platform to Fortune 500 Customers. Engaged with his community, Leonard Yakhnich also donates to Meals on Wheels.
In February of 2017, Meals on Wheels released a report called Hunger in Older Adults. The report was funded by the AARP Foundation and the Caesars Foundation and was designed to gain further knowledge about how various food-assistance programs can help the ten million older Americans suffering from hunger.
Fully 16 percent of older Americans face the threat of hunger, and though there is a myriad of state, federal, and local assistance programs, these seniors often need guidance and help to access these nutritional services.
The problem extends to the healthcare system, as the report estimated that one-third of older adults admitted to a hospital show signs of malnutrition. It is a serious problem in nursing homes, and 50 percent of community-dwelling seniors could be considered malnourished. The report also stated that healthcare costs soar by 300 percent for older patients who are malnourished.
Finally, the report recommended that advocacy groups could help spur coordination efforts and increase funding to serve America's seniors better. Furthermore, partnerships should be created for greater impact, and community-based initiatives should be established or strengthened.

There comes a time in (almost) everyone's life when we feel single and alone. Truly, deeply, and vulnerably.
Maybe we just went through a breakup, or had a loved one pass away.
Perhaps we're traveling and don't know anyone, moved to a new city, or even feel alone amidst the people who love us deeply.
Whatever the reason or season, you're allowed to feel alone. It's okay. If anything, it's normal and human.
"Connect with nature, you say? Bonny, you're going a bit cuckoo," is exactly what a friend told me when I suggested during a particularly depressive episode, she spend some time in nature, single and alone.
Yet connecting with the earth, with nature, with the air, water, trees, grass, critters and mountains is exactly what she needed. It's also what I do when I'm feeling down and out myself.
Now, I'm particularly blessed in that I call "home" the middle of paradise, nature-wise (Vancouver, BC, Canada). So, I can literally walk outside and peruse Stanley Park or the Seawall anytime.
Yet having traveled the world (I now travel full time), I've found nature almost everywhere. When I do, and when I'm feeling single and alone, I do one of a few things (or, sometimes all of them):
Some of the damage at the adjoining property from #hurricanematthew. They're right next to the beach, and while this is about 10 ft above sea level, there were pools of water, some quite deep. As I've said in other posts, anything taller than the house line was destroyed – like this tree. #staysafe everyone! This was taken October 6th around 14h EST while the winds were still strong, sun peeking out occasionally. #grandexuma #bahamas #bonefishcay #oldairportroad #canadiantraveller #nomadslife #writerslife #uprooted #afterthestorm #stormyweather @local10news @wsvn @cbcnews #cnnireport #trackingmatthew242
By doing any or all of these things, I'm grounding myself. I quickly recognize my connectedness to all things, that this too shall pass, and that the blades of grass beneath my feet lovingly support me. If I want them to.
After a particularly challenging period of time in my life, I decided I had to do something in order to feel more love. I've explained the process and what came of it elsewhere, for those receiving one of these love letters and wondering where it came from.
In a nutshell: when I give love, I get it back in infinite amounts. And so, whenever I feel I need more love in my life, I write love letters to strangers.
Then, I give them out.
Try it if you're feeling particularly brave (and especially if you're not).
Imagine whatever it is you need to hear, want to hear, hope to hear, and write it down. I'll bet you're not the only one on the planet feeling a bit single and alone, in need of some support or love. Pour it all out onto a piece of paper.
Then, fold it up, and leave it for someone to find. Libraries are always fun, as are coffee shops. I've even had business owners ask me if I can leave a bunch of love letters behind so they can give them out to customers that really need it.
The point is, just do it. Grab some paper and a pen now, and write your heart out.
It wasn't until very recently that I understand what it meant to love yourself. "Of course I love myself," was the flippant answer I gave a partner, when they questioned my ability to really know what I needed in the moment.
Yet, somewhere deep down, a thought emerged. "Wait, do I?"
A few days later, I read an article (that of course I can't locate in this moment to link to it) about self-love and the question, "How am I loving myself, right now?" I really had to think about it.
How AM I loving myself, right now?
So, I created an hourly reminder on my phone, asking myself just that. "How are you loving yourself?"
When it goes off, I answer in my head. Or, I change my behavior to something kinder, more loving, friendly. Or, I go do something that I'm craving, needing, wanting. Some of the things that come up, for me:
Beautifully, I had this exact conversation with a dear friend yesterday. When I read this random sign today, I cried with joy and gratitude. Yes, even with the mistake. This was also an, "I'm completely lost," moment. A few seconds later, the London Eye appeared before me. #graffiti #streetphotography #visitengland #visitlondon #tunnel #loveyourself #lookinthemirror #amateurphotographer
Did this article help? Did you find some new ways to support yourself when you're feeling down, out and just not that connected?
Have you used any of these tactics successfully? Or, are you wanting…. more? Share in the comments, I'd love to hear and help however I can.
(Psst… seriously though, I know you've got this).
Good points. I'm lucky enough to have the Ozark mountains near me and can get very lost in the woods, or I can find a pretty quiet place to fish. Solitude often provides me a bit of clarity.

Description :
Developing video games—hero's journey or fool's errand? The creative and technical logistics that go into building today's hottest games can be more harrowing and complex than the games themselves, often seeming like an endless maze or a bottomless abyss. In Blood, Sweat, and Pixels, Jason Schreier takes readers on a fascinating odyssey behind the scenes of video game development, where the creator may be a team of 600 overworked underdogs or a solitary geek genius. Exploring the artistic challenges, technical impossibilities, marketplace demands, and Donkey Kong-sized monkey wrenches thrown into the works by corporate, Blood, Sweat, and Pixels reveals how bringing any game to completion is more than Sisyphean—it's nothing short of miraculous.
Taking some of the most popular, bestselling recent games, Schreier immerses readers in the hellfire of the development process, whether it's RPG studio Bioware's challenge to beat an impossible schedule and overcome countless technical nightmares to build Dragon Age: Inquisition; indie developer Eric Barone's single-handed efforts to grow country-life RPG Stardew Valley from one man's vision into a multi-million-dollar franchise; or Bungie spinning out from their corporate overlords at Microsoft to create Destiny, a brand new universe that they hoped would become as iconic as Star Wars and Lord of the Rings—even as it nearly ripped their studio apart.
Documenting the round-the-clock crunches, buggy-eyed burnout, and last-minute saves, Blood, Sweat, and Pixels is a journey through development hell—and ultimately a tribute to the dedicated diehards and unsung heroes who scale mountains of obstacles in their quests to create the best games imaginable.

Transcript of Characteristics of Arthropods
What are Arthropods? Characteristics of Arthropods By Katie Bowen and Kayley Alonso Characteristics of Arthropods Invertebrates Have exoskeletons Have jointed legs Jointed legs A segmented body An exoskeleton Pairs of jointed legs Most have eyes and one of more pairs of antennae Head Thorax Abdomen Molting Process: 1. Animal wiggles out of old exoskeleton 2. A new, soft exoskeleton emerges that had been growing underneath 3. Animal makes itself as large as possible, stretching new skeleton before it hardens 4. Once stretched, skeleton dries and becomes hard Exoskeleton Functions: The Major Classes of Arthropods Protects against enemies and weather Prevents the animal from drying out Provides support for body organs Allows a place for muscles to attach Allows for movement Antennae Primary sense organs of arthropods Extremely sensitive to chemical stimuli Detects food, enemies, and potential mates Eyes Simple Eyes: Compound Eyes: One lens Made up of hundreds of simple eyes called facets Detect motion and color Sensitive to changes in light Crustaceans Arachnids Insects Millipedes Centipedes Thanks For Watching! Arthropod Lungs Spiracles: Lead to system of air tubes, which branch into smaller tubes When air enters through spiracles, it travels through tube system Oxygen passes from tubes into the cells, CO2 passes into the tubes and is carried outside the bodyFull transcript

To see the full map of relationships among scientific paradigms, click here or on the image below. Note: The map is a large (8.7 MB) file and may take a while to download.
Research & Node Layout: Kevin Boyack and Dick Klavans (mapofscience.com); Data: Thompson ISI; Graphics & Typography: W. Bradford Paley (didi.com/brad); Commissioned Katy Börner (scimaps.org)
This map was constructed by sorting roughly 800,000 published papers into 776 different scientific paradigms (shown as pale circular nodes) based on how often the papers were cited together by authors of other papers. Links (curved black lines) were made between the paradigms that shared papers, then treated as rubber bands, holding similar paradigms nearer one another when a physical simulation forced every paradigm to repel every other; thus the layout derives directly from the data. Larger paradigms have more papers; node proximity and darker links indicate how many papers are shared between two paradigms. Flowing labels list common words unique to each paradigm, large labels general areas of scientific inquiry.
Information Esthetics, an organization founded by map co-creator W. Bradford Paley, is giving away 25" x 24" prints of the Map of Science. Visit the Information Esthetics site to order a free print. (Shipping and handling are not included.)

Just spent some time with friends recording a podcast, Chad, Pav, Damien and Ruby. We sat around a table in the Coffee Counter in Leicester and chatted about stuff that came to mind. We didn't really have a plan, and we didn't really know what we where talking about, but that was kind of the point.
We played a few tracks from my playlist off my phone and just passed the time with some inane ramblings.

Update for 10-11 Weeks Out from Surgery
It only took me four weeks of being in Innsbruck, but yesterday I happened upon a store here that is similar to GNC stores back home! I was overjoyed to see it even though they didn't have all the same products. I brought my own supplements to Innsbruck: a multi-vitamin (gummies), fiber (gummies), B-12 zipmelts, Biotin, Thiamine (B1), and Calcium/D melts. (Hmm, can you tell I like gummy vitamins? HAHA!) By the way, B-12 zipmelts are AWESOME and I highly recommend them. Any weight loss program, but especially weight loss surgery, risks B deficiency and this is an easy way to keep your vital energy levels up.
Still, I have not been getting all my protein in every day so I have been keeping a lazy eye out for protein shakes and haven't found any until I saw this store yesterday. Our free cafeteria lunches often have breading around whatever meat they prepare and while it is tasty, I cannot eat very much of it at one time so finding protein without breading is a goal of mine. Also, I love salads, BUT the majority of them have been pre-packaged, often with peppers which I cannot handle at all, and/or they are not included in our complimentary lunches. So, I have had to avoid them thus far. I am able to select fresh cucumbers and shredded carrots - if not already vinegared and salted up. It seems to alternate every other day...
I suppose my preferences could be considered a bit unusual in that I like raw, uncooked, un-messed-around-with vegetables and fruits. In MY opinion, it is unusual to want to doctor up foods to the point that they either become mushy, tart, overly salty, or pepper-infused. Blech!
Anyway, this store had protein shakes and I bought some and was extremely disappointed. They taste HORRIBLE to me and are too thick. Upon opening the bottle, it even had a skin to break through which made me question the freshness and sealant and worry about food poisoning. So, foiled again on that front, but I will keep trying for the protein while I am here another 13 days.
I did buy a scale, finally, to see how well I have been keeping on track with losing. Since being in Austria, I have continued to lose slowly and have lost about 9 lbs. This makes my total 51 lbs !!!!! I've been walking everywhere and I am positive that helps. At home, my exercise consists of walking in City Parks at least twice a week. Cooler weather seems to make me want to walk the French Quarter more and hotter weather only City Park in the mornings. I used to have a treadmill and it was one of my dreams to own one, but I had troubles with motion sickness on its moving belt - in spite of the fact it was a high end Nordic Track treadmill. I had to take Bonine every single time I used it and so it fell out of use for the most part. I used to ride my bike frequently, but stopped while in Milledgeville due to the lack of sidewalks and pathways for riding in combination with being heavy and feeling awkward about it. I do plan on getting a new bike in New Orleans this Fall, but feel like I will only ride it around the park or on levees b/c of the traffic and scary neighborhoods I have to traverse. Nevertheless, I'm excited about getting back into riding and I hope to continue my journey toward a better shape! Notice that I wrote SHAPE and not HEALTH. This is because I was already in good health before I elected to have VSG surgery to aid with weight loss! :-) I like to point that out every so often because a great assumption regarding those who are overweight is that they may be very unhealthy. It is not always true!

Some folks assume soccer is a matter of life and death…I can assure them it's way more critical than that". We watched the video games as effectively, and my daughter was horrified on the quality of soccer played. I actually have additionally turn into disillusioned with soccer in recent instances, extra to do with the gulf in class and wealth than something. Dude soccer is not the simplest sport, you need to keep on the sector for ninety minutes, a hundred and twenty if the game goes into further time. Start off with toddler/children bat and ball kits, with small bats or racquets and sponge balls. In America, the most well-liked sport to watch is known as football, however it doesn't typically consist of kicking the ball with your ft.
Instead of being palms-on instructors on the soccer side-line, they should develop into guides, consultants, leaders and organizers of data and assessing the fostering strategic thinking. As proven below the scores were considerably greater for Elite soccer players than those in normal grades. The cause european football is called 'soccer' is because the game is performed – watch for it – by kicking the ball with the foot.
Factor in that many elite, college-certain gamers who bypass high school to deal with membership soccer, then the ratio becomes even greater for the highschool soccer player. Columnist Abdulateef al-Mulhim within the Arab News not too long ago credited ladies for Al Fateh SC's success in winning the Saudi soccer championship. The Iranian soccer heads merely chose to disregard numerous warnings from FIFA, for whatever reason. There is pushing in the midst of a soccer field and pushing in the midst of the court in basketball.
They don't want to even contemplate how laborious of a sport it's. Please be free to go run three-four miles in ninety minutes a long with the short considering having to be completed earlier than the bal gets to you and after the ball will get to you. The latest cleats for grass and smooth playing surfaces are designed to chew into floor for terrorizing traction and pace.

Tokyo trip advice and the first day of Spring
I know I'm already boring with this but my trip to Japan is sooo close and I really can't wait now <3 That's why I wanted to ask for some suggestion, especially about some interesting places to visit or where to eat. At the moment I'm planing what to do for every day and already have a lot of spots to see, but Tokyo is enormous so for sure, there's a lot of nice places I haven't heard about.
I'll be there for 11 days, one day I'm reserving for Nagano (I love sengoku period of Japanese history, my graduation thesis was about the battle of Kawanakajima, so I just can't miss going there hi hi), second day for a Fujisan tour and that leaves me 9 days for exploring Tokyo.
So if you have any good ideas, please share it with me ^____^
I hope the weather will be warm and sunny and I will be able to enjoy beautiful hanami <3
I've already been to Tokyo once, about 3 years ago, back when I was modeling for Bodyline, but now I'm going with my husband so I'm really looking forward to it <3333333333333333333
Today is the first day of spring but when I'm looking throug the window, it looks much more like the first day of winter.... Please, dear snow, melt already and don't fall from the sky anymore. Take some nice, long sleep and come back in December. It's already the time....
With this photos I'm saying goodby to Winter, hoping the scenery will soon change form snowy landscape to blooming, green meadows.

Cozy pictures, even though they are very wintery! And your outfit looks soo cute. ^^ReplyDelete
I guess you probably figured this out already (and have been there before), but if you are in Tokyo you MUST go to Takeshita Street in Harajuku! My absolute favourite place. Not so much for sight-seeing, but it is an experience worth making. And there is also the Meiji Jingū jut across the street of Takeshita steet if you want to mix it up with some classical sight seeing, and Yojogi park near it too (though I have never been there)ReplyDelete
Other than that the Zoo in Ueno is like my second favourite place in Tokyo, I go there each time I am there, it's the most beautiful zoo I have ever seen and worth checking out too! The Ueno park around the zoo in general is a place I like to go, because, even though it is kind of in the middle of Ueno, it is so calm at the same time.
When it comes to shrines and temples I don't think Tokyo has much to offer, at least it's very disappointing compared to other parts of Japan.
And if you have the time, you might want to make a trip to Yokohama. You can bee there from Toyko in just 20 minutes with the shinkansen, and something like 45 minutes with the cheap local train. Yokohama bay with its fairy wheel is also a place I always go to when I am that area. I also know a million places where to eat (my husband goes hunting for good food stores like I go hunting for clothing stores in Tokyo), but I am afraid I could never give an address or name, just would find the stores again from visual memory. But you are a vegetarian, right? So you don't get to eat that much in Tokyo anyway unless you eat fish. O.o
PS. I sent your Etude House Trial Set parcel out yesterday, but I sent it via ship, so I am afraid it might take wuite a while till it arrives! T_TReplies
Thank you for all of your recommendations <3Delete
I remember, when I was 3 year ago in Tokyo I've spent almost half of my time on Takeshita street and Yoyogi park because because people from Bodyline often left me in front of their store in Harajiuku and just told me "go sightseeing" and I was so afraid that I'm gonna get lost so I didn't wander to far >___< Ueon park and Zoo are of course already on my list, and I also really curious about the Shinagawa aquarium.
Yokohama sound really nice! The first thing that comes to my mind when I hear the name is this enormous Ferris wheel. I would love to get a raid on it tough I must admit I don't know almost anything about this city. I'll have to read a little bit more so maybe if we have time we will visit it.
My mind is already peppered for 2 weeks of eating mostly plain rice, salads and desserts hi hi , but I'm looking for some nice places for my husband, so he could enjoy some nice, tasty food. Fortunately I also have found some vegetarian\vegan restaurants so I could eat some proper meals as well ^__^
I got the package about 3 or 4 day ago. This set will be just perfect for my trip <3 Again, thank you soo, soo much <333
I long for spring as well. But according to the weather forecast there will be new snow at the weekend in my country, boo :(ReplyDelete
You should try some of the theme cafes! I loved the Alice Cafe :D Other places I liked were Ueno Zoo and park, Odaiba for shopping walks, Edo Museum... Aaaaand Ghibli Museum in Mitaka! ♥
And the usual stuff like Harajuku (Laforet) and Shibuya, but you probably know that already :)Replies
Thank you for the suggestions <3Delete
Alice cafe looks really nice. I almost missedGhibli tickets! I tough reserving them about month before visiting will be ok but almost all days were already full. Fortunately we were still able to get the reservation for one of the last days of our trip ^___^
Great photos, as always :D I'm looking forward for some real spring too, but this weekend it will rain. And I wanted to go to the seaside, sigh.ReplyDelete
I only stayed in Tokyo 3 days, so I don't think I can give you so much of an advice. However I absolutely loved the national museum in Ueno park and the park too.
As an otaku I was really happy to visit Akihabara too. I ate a great chirashi for a good price there, but I don't remember the name of the place ^^'Replies
Thank you ^___^Delete
I also have Akiba, Ueno park and national museum on my list. I hope I'll be able to make some nice photo to post here ^___^

Okropna zima brrr! już by mogła się skończyć. Szkoda że nie widać ciebie wyraźnie ;(ReplyDeleteReplies
Ja jestem tu tylko małym dodatkiem do śniegu ^___^Delete
Ehh, w tym roku zarówno tutaj jak i w Polsce zima strasznie się dłuży. Mam nadzieje, że wiosna nie zapomni przyjść i nie trzeba będzie czekać do lata >___<
Uwielbiam zimę, ale nie tą zimę ciapowatą tylko to co obecnie mam za oknem, gdyż taka zima jest piękna! I inspirująca :) Śliczne zdjęcia, chociaż faktycznie szkoda, że nie widać Ciebie zbyt dobrze :(ReplyDeleteReplies
Ja lubię zimę tylko przez krótki okres czasu. Najlepiej 2 tygodnie białego puchu z -10 stopniami, a później odrazu wiosna ^___^Delete
Beautiful photos!! I especially love the second one! *_* Thank god, we have less snow where I live! Your place sure looks like a winter wonderland! It's been snowing here for days and days and days but it's little enough to not cover the ground, thank god! I want spring too! >.<ReplyDeleteReplies
Thank you <3Delete
I'm really starting to think that Spring forgot about us and we will have to wait till summer for some nice, warm weather >___<
Oh my goodness, I am so jealous. I hope one day I can go to Tokyo too. You should check out the Grimoire shop if you can. I personally would love yo go there one day, it looks amazing.ReplyDeleteReplies
Yes, Grimoire <3 I hope find time to visit this store, just to look at the interior design hi hi.Delete
Beautiful pictures! I hope you enjoy Japan!ReplyDelete
