The open world of Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon Wildlands offers total freedom of approach to the missions available in the game. You can play all 100+ missions in any order, and each mission can be played in a completely different way. Each player will have a unique way of completing a mission, as the game is entirely non-scripted.
Each mission is designed to allow the player to complete it the way he or she wants. As Eric Couzian, creative director, explains: "We made the deliberate choice to not force a gameplay situation," which means that the game will not force you to play a certain way to accomplish your mission, and that you won't be penalized for the way you play. You can start a mission playing stealth, develop a whole strategy based on drone recon while trying to be as invisible as possible, and then decide to finish the mission with guns blazing.
We've already shown you four different ways to complete the El Pozolero mission:
An approach taking advantage of vehicle use, for those who like to complete their mission quickly and efficiently:
A full-assault execution with a run-and-gun approach:
At E3 2016, we shared a half-stealth/half-assault mission executed during the day:
And finally, at Twitchcon 2016, a complete stealth mission that takes place at night:
Eric Couzian talks about two of the many playstyles you can adopt while playing Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon Wildlands: "Assault-type players will tend to use short- or middle-range weapons, or even snipers. These players favor a direct attack to quickly take down the threat. On the contrary, stealth-type players try not to get spotted by the enemy. Some of them kill the enemies stealthily by equipping their weapon with a suppressor, while others are true Ghosts and try to avoid being detected at all, while not killing anyone."
The game's AI is programmed to react differently according to the playstyle the player is using. If the player is going all guns blazing into a camp, then the Santa Blanca Cartel will call motorized reinforcements to try to defeat the Ghosts. If, instead, the player tries to be as stealthy as possible, then the AI will try to detect him. The AI can also send patrols to look for the player it has detected if he is attacking from a distance.
Players can also issue orders to their AI teammates thanks to the command wheel, which we will talk about later. Recon allows you to quickly solve a situation and is also a very important element of the game. The use of recon can suit every playstyle, or you can even do without recon, in order to increase the difficulty. There are also snipers, those who like to kill enemies from a distance and have fun with the game's realistic bullet-drop system.
In the end, whether you like to play like a commando or like a real Ghost, Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon Wildlands allows you to play as you are and as you like. The game, as open as its world, will let you share intense stories with your friends.
Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon Wildlands will be available on March 7, 2017, for PlayStation®4 system, Xbox One, and PC.

6,5,15-Describing My Mother in many ways.
My mother is my brightest light every morning I wake up, which makes my day start. My mother is like my maker because she always makes stuff for me or my sisters. Everything she makes whether its food or clothing or anything it's always great or beautiful and we always look amazing in it. My mother has never been a failure in being a mother because everything she does makes me happy or my siblings. I can describe my mum in many words its really easy because she's really special to me.
My mums name is Sitela Puletau she likes to be known as Tela because that's what her friends call her, but to me and my siblings we call her mother or mum.
She is a pure Tongan lady that loves to cook, sleep, laugh, sing, and talk a lot.
My mum has short brown hair, she is kind of short because I am nearly taller then her. I love her bright brown eyes it's like the colour of the inside of a sunflower . She is very good at making Tongan grape necklaces. She is the best at sewing she sews anything just for us.
Sometimes she can be very angry but I understand because she's just trying to help me in a good very and to get my mind in what's happening.

top: forever 21 // skirt: h&m (old but new ones I love below) // heels: aldo //
I've been meaning to clean out my closet for weeks now and I'm not sure why I keep putting it off.
Now that the weather has definitely transitioned to full on fall, I'm trying to get rid of things I don't wear anymore and make some space for the new ;) It's also pretty essential to do so considering my closet space in my tiny condo is limited...
There are a few pieces from this past summer that are easily adaptable for the colder weather. If you've read this blog for a while, you know I have an obsession with midi skirts. This skirt I got from H&M in the summer (on sale!) is one of my favourites. The colours are so great and absolutely perfect for Fall.
Transitioning your summer pieces to fall is quite easy with the right accessories and with a little magic of layering. Throw on a sweater, turtleneck and add some booties and you're good to go! This look would also look great with a leather jacket or long black vest!
How do you transition your summer wardrobe? I'd love to know :)
Happy Thursday!
Other midi skirts from H&M I love...

Yin-Yang are the two primal forces controlling the whole of the universe according to Chinese philosophy. These terms are used when describing the nature or characteristic tendency of one thing with reference to another. Although it appears that these terms are used as nouns, in actuality, Yin-Yang are adjectives and do not refer to any concrete or existing thing; rather, the quality contained therein. Pure or absolute Yin or Yang is not possible for within Yin is the seed of Yang and conversely, within Yang is the seed of Yin. As such, they form two complementary, equally important, opposing forces, that together comprise the whole.
The concept is called yin yang, not yang yin, just because the former has a preferred pronunciation in Chinese. The word order has no cultural or philosophical meaning. The outer circle represents "everything" while the black and white shapes within the circle represent the interaction of two energies – "yin" (black) and "yang" (white) that together cause everything to happen. "Yin," meaning "shady," corresponds to night and dormancy. Yin is dark, passive, downward, cold, contracting and weak whereas "yang," which means "sunny," is bright, active, upward, hot, expanding and strong.
Aside from adding new information to one's knowledge of trivia, what's the point? Well, Yin-Yang is pertinent in at least two Chinese disciplines – Oriental medicine and Feng Shui. If the yin-yang forces in the body get unbalanced, then illness results. To 'cure' the affliction, one must provide the body with an adequate measure of the yin or yang aspect that is deficient. For example, a yin symptom such as coldness would be treated with yang treatments, such as hot foods. A yang symptom such as nervousness would be treated with yin treatments – cold foods such as fruits. And along this line, the macrobiotic diet, first popular in the late sixties and the seventies, is based on the division of food into their yin and yang properties. By reference to this classification, one could conceivably 'cure' oneself by adding the specific foods that balance the yin-yang properties of the deficient bodily system.
The same system of effecting balance is pertinent in Feng Shui. A too yang environment is disturbing and leads to the loss of peace and harmony. For example, a bedroom facing a noisy street can rob you of the quality rest you need. But a too yin area – say an office looking out onto a dark narrow alley – can cause you to become overly subdued and lethargic and can limit your energy and efficiency. An overly yin entrance to a residence – one that is hidden and dark – may not attract enough money or energy. The 'cure' for any of these problems involves adding more of the deficient yin or yang quality to 'stabilize' the environment.
Origins of Yin-Yang derive from Taoism, a religion widespread in China several hundred years before the Common Era. In Taoism, the Tao, loosely translated as "the Way" or "the Path," is the origin of all things and the ultimate reality. According to Taoist teachings, the truth of the Tao can only be understood indirectly or through a process of enlightened living. This belief has no personal God. Where do the yin and yang come in? "Through the dynamics of yin and yang, the female and male cosmic principles, the Tao creates all phenomena. Whereas the Tao is perfectly harmonious, the cosmos is in a state of constant dis-equilibrium most easily explained and understood in terms of Yin Yang." It is Yin/Yang that hold each other in balance and exert mutual control on the flow of life. In doing so, they provide for a manifest universe in perfect keeping with the world of magical, mystical experience.
Most forces in nature can be broken down into their respective yin and yang states which are usually in movement rather than held in absolute stasis:
What we can understand from Yin-Yang is that nothing should be rejected. There are no 'bad' things. Everything has some usefulness, depending on the appropriate conditions. When any aspect becomes dysfunctional, introduction of the corresponding Yin/Yang will rectify the situation.
If you cannot apply Yin-Yang principles on your own, and there are difficulties existing in your life or life-style, or if you are interested in Feng Shui and would like to confer with a Feng Shui consultant, please call our Concierge at 928-282-2085 for additional information.

Lee Cohen has helped many people experience the joy of self-expression through art, from children living in Costa Rican garbage dumps to children with disabilities in Miami. She is the founder and president of The House of Healing, a non-profit organization that provides children and their families with an opportunity to express themselves through the transformative power of art. The House of Healing has grown so much that they will soon be looking for new space to expand. In the future, Lee would like to focus more on supporting parents, who often suffer from burnout and need the same fun and fulfillment their children find in art. The House of Healing uses recycled materials for art projects, weaving sustainability into the expressive arts. Terril Shorb's Children and Nature course planted the seed of an idea to create a nature space at the House of Healing.
What stood out to Lee most about her education at Prescott College were the relationships. Faculty members encouraged her, boosted her self-esteem, and helped her realize she was doing something meaningful in the world. She passes this enthusiasm on to the children and families with whom she now works. Lee credits Ellen Greenblum with helping her gain the observation and writing skills that were essential for her licensure as a Registered Expressive Arts Consultant/Educator through the International Expressive Arts Therapy Association.
Lee is currently planning on attending graduate school in art therapy and finishing a children's book, which she intends to dedicate to one of her most influential professors, Dr. Vicky Young.

John Kepplers Premium Apple Cider, Ireland
Like I've said, its a cider revolution. Not long ago Erin, who is also a recent convert, took a trip to Uncle Dan's to grab some cider. Not knowing exactly what she wanted Erin duly grabbed an armful of the stuff for a little tasting session at home. This was my favourite. The John Kepplers Premium Apple Cider, Ireland, which happens to come in a big-arse can, looks like a flat beer in the glass – not very appealing I know – but pretty soon a great waft of apple (der), cinnamon and a bit of smokiness which very much reminded me of my Nanna's apple pie. The real joy was that this cider did not suffer from the sugar hit that most of the others did, and instead having a tart, dry finish. Top notch this one.

New Tests Prove More Accurate in Diagnosing UTIs
Six million patient visits per year are attributed to women with UTI symptoms. Urinary urgency, frequency and pain drive women of all ages to see their primary care physicians, Urologists or OB/GYNs. However, not all of these women test positive for UTIs.
UTIs are typically diagnosed through a simple urine culture to identify the presence (or lack) of UTI-causing bacteria, but not all patients who have symptoms of a UTI have bacteria found on a urine culture. However, with so many symptomatic women and so few positive test results, physicians have come to question the validity of negative test results. In some cases, patients with negative test results have experienced relief on antibiotics. Clearly something is amiss.
Researchers from Loyola University recently presented their data on a new type of urine culture: expanded quantitative urine culture (EQUC). When compared with the standard urine culture, researchers determined that the EQUC was able to identify infection in more samples than the standard culture method.
The benefit of this research is that doctors have become more suspicious of negative cultures. While they can rely on the accuracy of positive test results, negative results no longer guarantee that a patient does not have an infection. Doctors are, subsequently, more likely to treat women's symptoms instead of relying on a positive culture. Furthermore, physicians may also be less likely to pursue further invasive work-ups looking for other sources of the patient's symptoms.
Although, EQUC is not yet widely available, it will not be long before more accurate testing for UTI's becomes available. Ask your doctor what type of culture is available and how to treat the symptoms, even if your culture turns up negative.

I'm repulsed when my hairbrush and my toothbrush meet inside my toiletry bag. When I arrive at my holiday destination I usually unpack a few items and sometimes I discover that my eyeshadow has a crack in the case or my toothbrush has met my hairbrush during transit and yuck, there's a hair caught around the bristles. I pinned this because I thought that it was very clever recycling. The original is made from a hand towel, however I'm making a smaller version from a facewasher.
This Week's Pin: Travelling Terry Toothbrush Holder
Original Source: Etsy.com
Who's This For?: My Daughter
Who's This For?: My Daughter
Price: Use an old facewasher or handtowel and scrap ribbon
Difficulty: Simple straight sewing on machine
This Pin seemed a clever idea and was available for purchase from Etsy.com (http://www.etsy.com/listing/86300220/terrycloth-toothbrush-and-paste-travel) however, I felt it was too large for my daughter to take on camp so I purchased a small, child's toothbrush and a travel toothpaste and found a large facewasher in her favourite colour at home.
It rolls up and fits easily in the toiletry bag and hopefully any spills and stickiness will be soaked up by the facewasher and stay off everything else including the hairbrush.
My daughter returned from camp and announced that the toothbrush holder was a success as it was all kept clean even when it ended up at the bottom of her camping bag.
I'm not sure what's in store for next week. I might make a bathroom cleaner to try and help my tedious housework or perhaps cook something new. Let's wait and see next week.

Dilma Rousseff's economic team reassures suddenly nervous investors that it will indeed stick to fiscal and monetary rectitude (The Economist).
After weeks of speculation, Brazil's president-elect Dilma Rousseff has finally confirmed that she will be changing the central bank's governor, paving the way for big interest rate cuts. Forcing the departure of inflation hawk Henrique Meirelles is Ms Rousseff's most decisive move so far (BBC).
Brazil's incoming economic policy team surprised financial markets by promising deep cuts to budget spending, moving to shore up the main weakness in the country's booming economy (Reuters).
Brazil may be one of the world's hottest emerging markets, but there is at least one area in which it is not yet ready for prime-time — infrastructure. President-elect Dilma Rousseff will have to make vast regulatory improvements and boost incentives for private-sector investment in overstretched roads, ports and airports if Brazil is to sustain the commodities-driven growth of recent years (Reuters).
Brazil's government must immediately adopt tough measures to reverse a currency rally and rising imports of manufactured goods that are stripping its businesses of market share. National Industry Confederation chief Robson Andrade said the government must adopt restrictions, including nontariff barriers, to halt mainly Chinese imports that were eliminating domestic jobs (Reuters).
Wall Street favorite Antonio Palocci is to become the chief of staff in the incoming government of Brazilian President-elect Dilma Rousseff, an influential position that is likely to please financial markets (Reuters).
A Lula da Silva Institute will be fully involved in Africa, the world's poorest continent, and President Lula will be fully dedicated to that task when he steps down from office next January first (Mercopress).
The Brazilian government questioned UK's "unilateral actions" regarding the (Falklands) Malvinas Islands and called for the sovereignty "long standing dispute" to reach "as soon as possible a solution" (Mercopress).
Bridges, railroads, petrochemicals, steel mills, electricity, aqueducts, agriculture, meat-processing plants, ship building and even cable cars: Brazil's powerful entrepreneurial arm is reaching towards the Caribbean, via Venezuela, where the Hugo Chávez government is working to build what it calls "21st century socialism" (IPS).
Iran's greatest achievement in Latin America is its strong ties with oil-rich Venezuela and its burgeoning friendship with rising great power Brazil. This bid for greater influence in the U.S. backyard has not yet led to a direct confrontation. But with a nuclear agreement still up in the air, Iran's "Latin connection" may well pose an unwelcome challenge to the Obama administration (Foreign Policy in Focus).
President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva said Eletricas do Norte do Brasil SA plans to build a hydroelectric power plant on the border with Guyana. The two South American countries signed a memorandum of understanding to determine where the plant will be located, Lula said during a speech in Georgetown, Guyana (Bloomberg).

The Brazilian navy is planning to build and incorporate in the next decades a fleet of six nuclear powered and 20 conventional submersibles (15 new and five refurbished), making it the most dissuasive fleet of South America (Mercopress). More information on the submarines can be found at Defense Industry Daily, including news about the submarine base to be built in Itaguai.

Defense Minister Nelson Jobim said that "transfer of technology" will be the main factor in the government's decision on the purchase of 36 fighters for the Air Force (FAB). The Minister added that France has "a more credible offer" in this regard. He said the choice between competitors from France, Sweden and the United States will be announced before Dec. 19. According to Jobim, President Lula has said he wants to have a meeting in the next weeks. Jobim present the three competitors and the decision will be taken by Lula in agreement with president-elect Rousseff. In fact the Brazilian political year ends on December 19 with a long holiday break, so the policy decision has to be taken before that date (BW).
Boeing is offering to partner with Brazil's Embraer on a new fighter jet, in an effort to strengthen its bid for a multi-billion-dollar Brazilian defense contract. Joseph McAndrew, Boeing's vice president for Europe, Israel and America, told business publication Valor that the firm proposed 10 partnership projects with Brazil's aviation leader, including building a new plant in the country to build parts for Boeing's F/A-18 Super Hornet (Defensenews).
South Korea's Daewoo Shipbuilding & Marine Engineering (DSME) has entered discussions with the Brazilian Navy about its requirement to procure frigates, offshore patrol vessels (OPVs) and logistics support ships, Jane's understands. A source close to the development said on 18 November that DSME put forward a detailed formal proposal to meet the requirements in late September and that a series of meetings has taken place (Janes).
Spanish company Tecnobit has secured its biggest military simulation contract to date, to develop and equip two artillery simulation centres for the Brazilian Army. The deal, signed at the Brazilian Army's HQ on 9 November by Army Chief of Staff General Enzo Martins Peri and Tecnobit president Luis Mayo, is also the first to take place directly between the army and a Spanish company (Janes).
President-elect Dilma Rousseff's government may create an agency or secretariat for aerospace. The agency would report directly to the presidential palace. Currently, aerospace issues are distributed across several government bodies reporting to different ministries (Bloomberg).

Hi Robin!
I have to tell you, I am in LOVE with your blog! It is so inspirational! Thank you for all the hard work you put into it. I also love the Month of Gratitude. If we all took time to look around and really see what we already have, man, it be a different world. I keep seeing you post about craft night. I am not sure where you live though? Probably not anywhere near me. I live in Central California, any chance were close? It's worth a shot right?!
Keep up the great work! I feel like you're a dear and close friend, even though we've never met! I have a vision for my tiny little blog, and I hope it can be inspirational like yours! I have all these pre written posts, but working full time and being a full time mommy can be draining. I really want to start posting more about different topics :)
Now I am rambling! See ya soon!

The Earthian brain, by way of a series of inventions it achieved, delegated computation to non-living machinery. This assignment marks the beginning of what We retrospectively designate by the name of The Age of Informatics. Julian Millenium 2 (2 JM) is the approximate and officially accepted date this era starts.
The main characteristic of the Age of Informatics is a drastic increase in the speed of information processing. Although the name is appropriate, it fails to imply the Earthians' failure to foresee the divergence of reasoning and virtue-regulation from computation in terms of speed and accuracy: This age is characterized by not only a drastic increase in the speed and an alteration in ways of obtaining collecting and processing information, but also by the dissolution of knowledge and its replacement by an ever-expanding bulk of information.
We are still far from understanding why the influential scholars of one of the most intelligent 2nd JM genera could not figure out a basic canon: Computation speed is a prerequisite for the maintenance of sound reasoning; it is not sufficient to even initiate one.
One theory is based on an analogy between the infophilic culture that prevailed in the 2nd JM Earth and the pagan beliefs of the previous JM, which shared a tendency to worship created or constructed phenomena: Some rigid and primitive idealization must have blinded the intelligent Earthians to the basic canon. Some speculaticians go as far as to suggest that it must have been no less than a religion to have blinded Earthian scholars to such a simple fact—a religion lacking only in the classical revelation incidents typical of the belief organizations of the -1st and the 1st Millenia that centered around a Creator. However, this theory fails to explain why, unlike previous religions of Creation, the revelations never became disclosed later.

Chicken Purse
I found this adorable bag pattern online and had to have one to go with my love of chickens. It cost me $2.60 to make after buying a zip and going through my stash.
If you would like to make your own chicken, I found the pattern at whipup.net. It is a scan from a Japanese magazine, so you may have to redraw a pattern a couple of times until you get it the right size and there are no English instructions.
So that there are no unfinished seams inside the bag I made mine in a particular way, so it took me yesterday and today to complete this project.
To attach the zip I attached fabric to either side of the zip as you would a quilt binding. Then I made a tube of fabric, folded in one end and pushed the end of the zip into it, stitching it in place. I then stitched each side of my fabric tube and zip to a pre-prepared chicken body and once I had both sides sewn on bar 1cm I did the same treatment to the other side of the zip so that it is fully enclosed.
For the other parts the pictures should be enough to get you by, however I changed the wings and made them into little pockets. My bag turned out slightly bigger than the instructions at 11cm x 9cm which I put down to having to get a 12cm zip and size accordingly instead of the 9cm one recommended.
Better view of zip
If you make a chicken pouch come back and show me!!

Last summer I started to get into yoga after years and years of fighting it. I thought it was too "zen" and not a "real" workout. A friend finally convinced me to try it and I have to admit: I love it.
I spend hours and hours on my feet as a chef each week, not to mention all the running I do for exercise and the walking I do around the city... Yoga not only calms my mind and helps me focus, but it stretches my limbs and makes me so much more flexible.
I only have one regret when it comes to yoga: That I didn't start doing it sooner...

Robin Lopez gets ejected, tosses a chair into oblivion
When NBA players get ejected, they often look for an outlet for their anger. After getting ejected during the first half of the Chicago Bulls' demolition of the Sacramento Kings, Robin Lopez had to be restrained from confronting an official.
The Bulls held the Sacramento Kings to nine points in the first quarter, but Lopez was having a tough night personally, scoring two points on 1-of-5 shooting. Unable to calm his temper, Lopez saw a chair looking at him funny and did what NBA players have wanted to do to referees all season long by heaving it down the the tunnel. It wasn't quite Bobby Knight skipping a chair across the floor like a stone across a lake in '85, but he put some impressive zip on that throw.
Robin Lopez gets ejected and then throws chair haha #bulls @SportsCenter @BR_NBA pic.twitter.com/AnMjggJ4PE
— kooper richardson (@kooper_r98) February 6, 2018
The NBA doesn't look to kindly upon inanimate objects being thrown at high velocities in arenas. After all, what goes up, must come down and in a densely populated area, there's always a higher chance than usual that a freak accident occurs. Fortunately, it appears Lopez avoided a repeat of MLB's Fran Francisco debacle.

Karl Rove's new 'Conservative Victory Project' earns conservative ire
The news that former Bush administration adviser Karl Rove is launching an effort to keep less-electable conservative Republicans from winning primaries has stirred up anger on the right.
The Conservative Victory Project, first reported on by the New York Times, is a direct response to the 2012 elections, when the National Republican Senatorial Committee stayed out of primaries and saw conservative candidates such as Todd Akin and Richard Mourdock lose winnable races.
"The Conservative Defeat Project is yet another example of the Republican establishment's hostility toward its conservative base," said Matt Hoskins of the Senate Conservatives Fund, a PAC launched by (but no longer affiliated with) former senator Jim DeMint (R-S.C.).
"I dare say any candidate who gets this group's support should be targeted for destruction by the conservative movement," wrote RedState's Erick Erickson.
Erickson also noted that the establishment did not have a great track record in 2012 either. American Crossroads, the super PAC behind the new project, supported no winning candidates in last year's election,according to a Sunlight Foundation analysis. Only 1.29 percent of the group's money went to opposing candidates who lost.
"They are welcome to support the likes of Arlen Specter, Charlie Crist and David Dewhurst. We will continue to proudly support the likes of Pat Toomey, Marco Rubio and Ted Cruz," said Barney Keller, spokesman for the anti-tax, conservative-backing Club for Growth.
Rove has been considering picking sides in Republican primaries since November, seeing the 2012 election as a $300 million learning experience.
"We've got to carefully examine, as we did after 2010, an after-action report looking at everything with fresh eyes and questioning and figuring out what worked and what didn't work," he said at the time.
Republicans already fear conservative candidates will hurt them in 2014 races. Rep. Steve King (R-Iowa) is considering a bid for the seat of retiring Sen. Tom Harkin (D). According to the Times, the polarizing social conservative would be one of the group's first targets. In West Virginia, conservatives may mount a primary challenger against Rep. Shelley Moore Capito, the party's preferred candidate for the seat of retiring Sen. John D. Rockefeller IV (D).
