I created an experimental game in unity called "sisyphus". The player has to roll a huge stone downhill, uphill, through rocky valleys, desserts and on bizarre concrete structures.
I created the world structures, elements and terrains by hand, the player character is based on a mixamo-shape with custom textures from different assets.
I used concrete textures on the main elements of the world including the sphere that has to be rolled. This should add visual weight and stand in a stark, brutalism - inspired contrast with the fleshy and vulnerable looking muscular appearance of the main character. The terrain features sand textures and varies between bright brown and warm red in the final rendering. In combination with the bright skylight this should invoke a dessert feel - the player/audience should feel the heat while rolling the rock around.
The formal language of structures and elements is inspired by the metaphysical/surrealist art movement around Giorgio de Chirico from the early 20th century.

In the holidays my mum and I went to Ava's mums house. Ava and I we were going to the park to play. While we were playing we were laughing and laughing because Korobea fell off his bike.
We were playing on the skate board. We were having turns each playing on the skate board.
But then we saw big muscley men coming towards the park. So I said to Ava come on Ava or else you might get beaten up. Ok Ava said but we stopped and saw some kids with the creepey man. Later on Me and Ava went up town with my mum. And we brought some chicken and chips and a fizzey drink.

One cannot suggest that you would be spoiled rotten. There can never be anything edifying about all things rotten or the matter of rottenness. So to correct that then, it would be far, far better to suggest that after piling in all your human resources to peruse online catalogues on the esthetically pleasing, ergonomic benefits, ecologically conscience appeasing and healthy, organic benefits of the availability of a myriad of organic mattresses for purchase, you will be spoiled sweetly. Alongside of these organic mattresses is a whole host of other edifying organic materials that only do justice to improving and enhancing the sleep experience. So, there you go, bring new meaning to the saying of enjoying a beauty (beautiful) sleep for you and your family and go on and purchase some organic mattresses, bed linen and beds.
And when everything is nicely in place you will all be spoiled sweetly. It is now quite easy to achieve the organic sleep experience. This is because your online service provider is able to hunt high and low to find you the perfect bed sets that match you and your family's needs. This is only on the assumption that they do not have something nearly as specific to what you might be after. It is good to know that many of you are still so discerning. It is not a matter of being incredibly fussy, nor are you and the folks necessarily spoilt. It is just that you are always trying to do right by your family. Good show! What good mother or father would not go to all ends of the earth to ensure that their brood is as healthy, both physically and mentally, as possible?
Do enjoy your shopping, and then enjoy your sleep later on.

Forget Cod; the Big-Time Disease Prevention Benefits of Squalene from Shark Liver Oil
Very few organisms that still roam the earth can claim to have their biological dateline stretching back to prehistoric times. Sharks are one of them. While their evolutionary hardiness likely comes from a whole host of different factors, there is one particular part of certain sharks' biochemical makeup that seems to go a long way in ensuring their longevity. This substance has since been shown to have extensive disease-prevention capacities, along with being able to reduce the incidence and severity of lesser ailments as well.
We're talking about squalene, a word I imagine you've never heard before and – truth be told – before this morning neither had I. You are likely familiar with is cod liver oil though, and the way it provides quality EPA and DHEA fats that are beneficial for your brain and cognitive development in children.
When it comes to liver oils though, the codfish really does take a backseat to the shark. No slight to the smaller denizen of the deep, but the squalene in shark liver oil has a much higher level of potency and potential for people who are suffering with poor health or life-threatening diseases.
There's plenty of reasons why Bell Shark Liver Oil and similar products are increasingly popular these days, and I'll discuss them further here and what makes squalene such a promising compound for maintaining health and enjoying longevity
1000M + Residents Only Need Apply
Let's go back a rather long ways – roughly 3.5 billion years certainly qualifies as going back a long way – to the 'Precambrian' period where supposedly life began on earth. The microbes and membrane cells that precluded organisms were apparently full of squalene. Scientists indicate that the substance was of great importance to ensure their survival in a hostile and primarily anaerobic environment. And of all the organisms that followed, it was the deep sea shark (aka the frilled shark) that featured a liver that was disproportionately large for its body size and absolutely loaded with squalene.
Now of course the deep sea shark is long since extinct, but it does have some descendants still prowling the deep – Aizame sharks, Dog sharks, Nurse sharks, Sixgill sharks, Fog sharks, Gulper sharks, Thompson's sharks, and Cat sharks. And each of these 8 species are the best sources of high quality shark liver oil these days.
The one characteristic they all share is that they live deep in the sea, at depths usually well in excess of 1000 metres underwater. All are classified as squalidae sharks (thus the name, 'squalene'), and – like their ancestor – they have livers that make up roughly 25% of their body weight, and similarly plentiful with squalene. Shark liver oil can consist of between 60 to 85% squalene.
It's interesting to note that squalene is naturally found in the human body too, but in very small quantities. What's more noteworthy is that you have the highest concentration of it as a newborn, but by the time you've made it most of the way through your 30s it's significantly depleted. One shouldn't necessarily make a connection between these depleted levels of squalene and the proliferation of disease onset around these ages, but it may play a role in combination with other lifestyle / diet influences and genetic predispositions.
Olive & Palm Oil Options
Olive oil has squalene too, but in drastically lower concentrations that will typically be less than 1%. Palm oil has squalene too in slightly lesser concentrations than olive oil. However, premium olive oil after first compression can have much higher concentrations of squalene, up to 700mg per 100g. This may explain in part why the 'Mediterranean Diet' is lauded for its disease-preventative properties to the extent that it is. Consider that while people in North America will intake somewhere in the vicinity of 30mg of squalene from their diet every day, folks in Mediterranean countries often get up to 400mg per day from dietary sources.
Cancer and Other Disease Fighting Benefits
Squalene has long been used in Asia to combat disease and ailments. The locals on the Japanese peninsula of Izu have favoured it for centuries, calling it 'samedawa' which translates to 'cure all.' An ancient Chinese text called Honzumoko detailed the impressive effects of shark liver oil to the extent that many considered it to be a miracle cure for many debilitating human conditions and diseases.
In 1906 a Japanese chemist named Dr. Mitsumaro Tsujimoto who specialized in oils and fats published research about the secrets of shark liver oil. He discovered that a specific substance in the oil was responsible for the healing properties, and called it squalene because the people of Japan and neighboured islands extract the oil only from sharks livers of the Squalidae family mentioned above.
It was many years later that Dr. Carl Luer, an American biochemist, found that sharks rarely ever develop cancer. Even if they were exposed to high concentrations of carcinogen substances, their immune system would more often than not ward off the disease. He also discovered that the sharks' wounds would heal two times faster than those of humans.
It is believed that this super immune response is generated via alkoxyglycerols, lipids in the squalene that stimulate the immune system and protect against malignant cell growth. And it would seem those alkoxyglycerols are particularly effective in that regard, and when evaluating it from the olive oil-source perspective it's very indicative that:
- Greek women (who obviously consume PLENTY of olive oil in their diets) have 65% less incidence of breast cancer compared to women in North America
In addition to being a powerful disease fighter, squalene is also a powerful anti-oxidant, oxygen generator for enhanced recuperation (squalene has shown efficiency in improving the quantity and quality of the oxygen saturation in cells), and a fat regulator and energy modulator that promotes better vitality. This is particularly true for older individuals. Lastly, squalene is also believed to a digestive stimulant and so it may appeal to people with IBS or any type of digestive troubles.
To conclude, we always encourage our readers to be very exploratory when it comes to finding alternative natural health cures for whatever it is that's ailing you. You may well already have cod liver oil in your cabinet, and if any of the purported benefits of shark liver oil sound appealing (including for prevention of cancer in individuals with a family history) then it's worth trying it out and seeing if it helps.

Learning vocabulary on the command line
I like the idea of adding little bits of learning to my day that don't take much effort once I've set them up. They're not the most effective way to learn, but they certainly don't hurt and every now and then you do get something worthwhile out of them.
One of the things I've set up recently is displaying random Chinese vocabulary items at the start of every command line session in Zsh.
The first iteration was very basic. I put a copy of CEDICT in my home directory. It's then possible to get random lines from the dictionary with this command:
shuf -n 1 ~/cedict_1_0_ts_utf-8_mdbg.txt
Running that a few times gives you stuff like this:
轂 毂 [gu3] /hub of wheel/
連州 连州 [Lian2 zhou1] /Lianzhou city in Guangdong/
事業 事业 [shi4 ye4] /undertaking/project/activity/
察言觀色 察言观色 [cha2 yan2 guan1 se4] /observe sb's words and gestures/
As you can see, you get all sorts of random vocabulary due to the breadth of the CEDICT dictionary. I don't mind this, but you can easily use a custom vocabulary list with more specific content if you want more practical words to come up.
The other issue with having the entirety of CEDICT available is that there's the chance of inappropriate vocab appearing at inopportune moments. I have this set up on my work computer and it can spit out things that are hard to explain to a colleague who's looking at my screen at that moment (the best / worst one so far was "戀屍癖"). Sometimes I just explain what it is, and other times I use ctrl+l to get rid of it quickly!
It's easy to alias that command and run it on every new session in
alias suijici="shuf -n 1 ~/cedict_1_0_ts_utf-8_mdbg.txt"
However, the entries in CEDICT are consistently formatted and it seems a shame to waste that. I put together this regex that should match the four parts of a CEDICT entry (simplified, traditional, pinyin and definition):
We can then pipe the output of the
shuf command through that expression using
awk (which ends up with a bad case of leaning toothpick syndrome, but oh well). I've used it to drop the simplified characters and reformat the line:
awk '{ match($0, "^(.+)\\s(.+)\\s\\[(.+)]\\s\\/(.+)\\/\r$", a) }; { print a[1] " (" a[3] "): " a[4] }'
(Note the addition of
\r before
$ in the regex to match the line return included by
Now we get output like this:
窗簾 (chuang1 lian2): window curtains
It's better than before, but it's also nice to make the Chinese stand out more than the pinyin or definition. That can be achieved with ANSI escape sequences in the print part of the awk command:
{ print "\x1b[93m" a[1] "\x1b[0m \x1b[35m(" a[3] ")\x1b[0m: \x1b[35m" a[4] }
Then you get output with the different parts of the CEDICT entry in different colours. The final command looks like this:
shuf -n 1 ~/cedict_1_0_ts_utf-8_mdbg.txt | awk '{ match($0, "^(.+)\\s(.+)\\s\\[(.+)]\\s\\/(.+)\\/\r$", a) }; { print "\x1b[93m" a[1] "\x1b[0m \x1b[35m(" a[3] ")\x1b[0m: \x1b[35m" a[4] }'
I could leave it there, but the pinyin tone numbers are too tempting. It's possible to convert those into tonemarks and colour-code them with regex. That might be possible on the command line, but it would involve applying a list of regex replaces to part of the output of
awk or something, which I can't think how to achieve. Besides that it would be far from readable.
Instead, I've made a little program in Go that does this faster than the command line tools and in a much more readable way.
Here's the source:
package main
import (
func main() {
cedictFile, err := os.Open(os.Args[1])
defer cedictFile.Close()
entry := makeCedictEntry(randomLine(cedictFile))
"%s \x1b[35m(\x1b[0m%s\x1b[35m): %s\n", entry.traditional,
entry.prettyPinyin(), entry.definition,
// Bail out on an error
func check(e error) {
if e != nil {
// Get a random line from a file with even distribution
func randomLine(file *os.File) (chosenLine string) {
scanner := bufio.NewScanner(file)
count := float64(0)
for scanner.Scan() {
if rand.Float64() <= (1 / count) {
chosenLine = scanner.Text()
// A CEDICT entry
type Entry struct {
simplified string
traditional string
pinyin string
definition string
// Convert entry's pinyin to tonemarks and apply ANSI colours
func (e *Entry) prettyPinyin() string {
syllables := strings.Split(e.pinyin, " ")
mark := toneMarker()
colour := toneColourer()
var buffer bytes.Buffer
for i, syllable := range syllables {
tone, letters := toneAndLetters(syllable)
marked := mark(tone, letters)
colouredAndMarked := colour(tone, marked)
if i < len(syllables)-1 {
buffer.WriteString(" ")
return buffer.String()
// Make an Entry out of a CEDICT line string
func makeCedictEntry(entry string) Entry {
entryPattern := regexp.MustCompile(`^(\p{Han}+)\s(\p{Han}+)\s\[(.+)\]\s\/(.+)\/$`)
parts := entryPattern.FindStringSubmatch(entry)
if parts == nil || len(parts) != 5 {
panic("Failed to parse CEDICT line: " + entry)
return Entry{
traditional: parts[1],
simplified: parts[2],
pinyin: vsToUmlaut(parts[3]),
definition: parts[4],
// Replace "v" with "\u00fc" and "V" with "\u00dc"
func vsToUmlaut(pinyin string) string {
return strings.Replace(
strings.Replace(pinyin, "V:", "U\u0308", -1), "v:", "u\u0308", -1,
// Get pinyin tonemarking closure
func toneMarker() func(tone int, letters string) string {
toneMarks := [4]string{"\u0304", "\u0301", "\u030C", "\u0300"}
targets := [13]string{"A", "E", "I", "O", "U", "\u00dc", "iu", "a", "e", "i",
"o", "u", "\u00fc"}
toneMarker := func(tone int, letters string) string {
if tone == 5 {
return letters
// Replace first found tonemark target vowel with tonemarked version
for i := 0; i < 13; i++ {
if strings.Index(letters, targets[i]) > -1 {
replaced := strings.Replace(letters, targets[i],
targets[i]+toneMarks[tone-1], 1)
return string(norm.NFC.Bytes([]byte(replaced)))
return letters
return toneMarker
// Wrap given string in ANSI output colours for MDBG tone
func toneColourer() func(tone int, syllable string) string {
colours := [5]string{"\x1b[31m", "\x1b[33m", "\x1b[32m", "\x1b[34m",
end := "\x1b[0m"
toneColourer := func(tone int, syllable string) string {
return fmt.Sprintf("%s%s%s", colours[tone-1], syllable, end)
return toneColourer
// Bail out if tone not in range 1-5
func checkTone(tone int) {
if tone < 1 || tone > 5 {
panic("Invalid tone: " + string(tone))
// Get the tone and plain letters of a pinyin syllable
func toneAndLetters(syllable string) (int, string) {
tone, err := strconv.Atoi(syllable[len(syllable)-1 : len(syllable)])
letters := syllable[:len(syllable)-1]
return tone, letters
Not the most beautiful program in the world but it gets the job done:

I just got a 5 Star Review on Yelp:-)
It's from a brand new massage client that I met at my last triathlon. You can read about that here and I'll share more in a future article on how I used that event to market my wellness center/spa.
For now, here's the review:
"Felicia helped me recover from driving aches and pains. one hour made all the difference in my life. She gave me active stretches to do for homework. I feel 100% better after my massage. Thank you!" ~ Jane
As soon as I saw it, I shared it on Facebook. Besides the fact that seeing this first thing made my day, I wanted to share this review because I have two open appointments tomorrow I'd like to fill. Reading a review like this is likely to help possible new clients to try me as well as to remind current clients why they like me. If also affirms in people's minds that I am good at what I do and that even if today's not the day, I am the person they'll call when they need a massage.
Tooting your own horn is a great way to promote yourself and is one more way of "showing up" when others won't. Don't be afraid to share your accomplishments, big and small. Your clients and friends will be proud of you and often both you and your bank account will feel good when you do it.

One of the best things about running our programs, is seeing the impact it has on so many people's lives. It's a gift that YOU allow us the privilege to be part of this journey. Our latest newsletter from January 2013, moved one of our athletes to email us. It was too inspiring to keep to ourselves. And if her first email wasn't enough, when I asked her if I could share her thoughts on our website, she wrote this:
Of course you can post my email (or any part of it) on your website and share it with anyone you wish! I meant every word….It was such a powerful source of strength, motivation and joy for me I am happy to tell anyone who will listen!
I'm sitting here smiling as I use my lunch hour to peruse race calendars for 2013 and try to figure out how to sneak in more training this year! …and if anything I said can help someone else decide to join TTNE on their triathlon journey then all the better!
Lynne and Janice,
You are so right – not someday, but TODAY – is the time! You've inspired me to finally write to you about my experience with my first full year of training with TTNE. I SHOULD have done it right after our goal race – the Amica Ocean Beach Sprint… or when I missed the TTNE ReUNion in December …or at the end of the year as I reflected on my year of training…and on the life circumstances that took me away from training for a few months…but I didn't – and once again, you inspire me, as you have so many times in past two years…to action!
And you are so right about how unique the TTNE program is! I have participated in other triathlon training programs, and while they were good, they didn't hold a candle to TTNE. You and your wonderful group of volunteer leaders always manage to hit upon exactly the right mix of inspiration, technical knowledge, motivation and nurturing that would take any aspiring triathlete on a the best possible journey to their first race.
The training plan, workouts and events are all extremely well planned and organized. Right from the beginning your carefully designed plans allow us to also plan to fit the training into our busy lives. Your technical expertise is always evident – and it seems like I no sooner read an article on the cutting edge of triathlon technology than you guys are talking about it or incorporating it into our training.
Finally, I truly underestimated the power of taking a journey like this with a group. The atmosphere of camaraderie and support that is evident at every training session helps to make the experience as joyful as it is tough – and really leaves you wanting to come back to each and every training session not only for yourself, but for your new friends and teammates. And yes, you truly do develop a TEAM who, even with all of our individual challenges and triumphs, are all there for each other every step of the way.
As you know, by the time I joined TTNE for a full year of training, I had competed five triathlons. I can truly say that my most fun, most joyful experience of all was the goal race I completed after training with TTNE. To have such support at both the start and finish lines was amazing – to be able to share the nerves, the struggles, the smiles, the fabulous feeling of accomplishment as I crossed the finish line with our TEAM was incredible.
I could go on (and you KNOW that I can!) but I'll close by saying how grateful I am to have been a part of the TTNE experience. God willing I will be training with you again this year and I am really looking forward to some new challenges (maybe Olympic???) and some of the old challenges along the way as well! After a two month hiatus I'm finally back in the gym, in the pool and on the trainer next week and starting Fleet Feet's running group next Saturday. I'm excited to get back and get ready for April with TTNE!
Thanks again to both of you and I'll see you in April if not before!
Kerry, Suffield, CT (Age 55)

Bihar CBI court issues production warrant for Shahabuddin in scribe murder case
Muzaffarpur (Bihar), May 22: A CBI court here on Monday issued production warrant against RJD leader Mohammad Shahabuddin seeking his appearance before it from Tihar Jail through video conferencing for his trial in the murder case of journalist Rajdeo Ranjan.
Special CBI Judge Anupama Kumari issued the production warrant against Shahabuddin on the plea of CBI's Deputy Superintendent Sunil Kumar Rawat for producing him in court through video conferencing for his trial.
Shahabuddin is presently lodged in high-security Tihar jail in the national capital and as per the order the trial would be conducted in the CBI court through video conferencing from May 26.
The four times RJD MP from Siwan is alleged to have been involved in the murder of Rajdeo Ranjan, a journalist of a prominent Hindi daily in Siwan last year. Shahabuddin is facing trial in more than 45 criminal cases and was moved to Tihar jail in February this year on a Supreme Court order on the pleas by Siwan native Chandrakeshwar Prasad, whose three sons were killed in two separate incidents.
Rajdeo Ranjan, district bureau chief of a hindi daily was gunned down on May 14 last year and his wife has accused Shahabuddin's role in the killing.

6/17/16, "Trump's Moral Clarity: "America must unite the whole civilized world in the fight against Islamic terrorism"," sundance, tcth
|Paris, 11/13/2015
[…] America must unite the whole civilized world in the fight against Islamic terrorism, just like we did against communism in the Cold War… (more)
That sentence identifies a global vacuum. A missing element just too uncomfortable for President Obama and liberal leaders within multiple Western nations to acknowledge. From that sentence a clear policy is born. A missing policy; missing leadership.
I predict that in the coming weeks/months candidate Hillary Clinton and President Obama will be forced to accept and adopt the clarity within Donald Trump's position. They'll simply have to. Because if they don't, the voters they need will abandon them in droves.
Neither Hillary Clinton, nor President Obama are willing to admit the transparently obvious: there is a threat from Islamic Terrorism, that directly endangers the core liberal values carried by their own base constituency.
The various politically correct catch phrases being used by Hillary Clinton such as "radical jihadism," or "radical Islamism," are not going to stand up against Trump's willingness to call them to task. The obfuscations within the Clinton position is weakening her daily; and her arguments will not stand up against scrutiny from the intellectually honest.
The larger intellectual segment of the LGBT community is already asking: Is there a non-radical Jihad?
The silent response from the left is deafening.
Many of you will remember how candidate Ted Cruz essentially dropped his own platform positions and took up advocacy for Donald Trump's positions; even attempting to claim them as his own. However, even if they wouldn't admit it, the Cruz followers knew inherently their candidate was only mirroring Donald Trump. On the issue of Islamic terrorism, the same is going to happen soon with Hillary Clinton and even President Obama.
If they don't make the shift soon, they'll lose the election because only Donald Trump will be seen as conveying the honest moral clarity.
[…] America must unite the whole civilized world in the fight against Islamic terrorism, just like we did against communism in the Cold War.
[…] When I am President, I pledge to protect and defend all Americans who live inside of our borders. Wherever they come from, wherever they were born, all Americans living here and following our laws will be protected.
[…] The media talks about "homegrown," terrorism, but Islamic radicalism, and the networks that nurture it, are imports from overseas.
Yes, there are many radicalized people already inside our country as a result of the poor policies of the past. But the whole point is that it will be much, much easier to deal with our current problem if we don't keep on bringing in people who add to the problem.
For instance, the controversial Mosque attended by the Boston Bombers had as its founder an immigrant from overseas charged in an assassination plot.
This shooter in Orlando was the child of an immigrant father who supported one of the most repressive regimes on Earth. Why would we admit people who support violent hatred?
[…] So whether it's matter of national security, or financial security, we can't afford to keep on going like this. We owe $19 trillion in debt, and no longer have options.
All our communities, from all backgrounds, are ready for some relief. This is not an act of offense against anyone; it is an act of defense.
I want us all to work together, including in partnership with our Muslim communities. But Muslim communities must cooperate with law enforcement and turn in the people who they know are bad – and they do know where they are.
I want to fix our schools, roads, bridges and job market. I want every American to succeed. Hillary Clinton wants to empty out the Treasury to bring people into the country that include individuals who preach hate against our own citizens.
I want to protect our citizens – all of our citizens.
That speech is clear, crystal clear. It is unarguably direct and truthful. There is no effective counter to this truth when cast against the blood-stained sidewalks and nightclubs.
Oh, they're trying. They are trying to dilute the factual Islamic Terrorist attack by framing the Orlando massacre as a 'hate crime' against a special interest group. But even the combined Clinton/Obama machine can't make a narrative lift that steep and heavy.
The Clinton machine is a poll testing political behemoth. So too is the Obama political enterprise.
But the clarity behind the position of Donald Trump is water to a thirsting electorate who are alert and recognizing the PC-ism of the left, which drives the denial of Islamic Terrorism, has real and significant consequences.
We are a week away from the only hope they have to avoid making the shift.
If the Brexit vote is successful, and Great Britain breaks free from the EU, you can be guaranteed Hillary Clinton will shift 180°, drop the radical jihadism gobbledygook nonsense, and begin talking directly about Islamic Terrorism. Watch."
"The case is Gonzalez et. al v. Twitter, Inc., Google, Inc., and Facebook, Inc."
6/16/16, "Family of ISIS Paris attack victim sues Google, Facebook and Twitter," Washington Post, Jacob Bogage
"The family of an American student killed by the Islamic State during a November 2015 attack in Paris is suing Twitter, Facebook and Google for providing, "material support" to the terrorist group.
Nohemi Gonzalez, 23, was the only American victim among 130 killed in coordinated attacks at a Parisian soccer stadium and concert venue.
In a complaint filed this week in the U.S. District Court of Northern California, her father, Reynaldo Gonzalez, argues the three platforms "have knowingly permitted the terrorist group ISIS to use their social networks as a tool for spreading extremist propaganda, raising funds and attracting new recruits."
The Islamic State, also known as ISIS, has active presences on both Facebook and Twitter, though the platforms have cracked down in the past and deactivated accounts affiliated with terrorist organizations.
Google is named in the suit, filed this week, as the owner of YouTube, which the Islamic State has used to post propaganda including videos of executions.
"Google, Twitter and Facebook provide infrastructure and material support for ISIS to conduct terrorist activity," said Keith Altman, attorney for the family. "These companies are not doing a good enough job from keeping the terrorists from using their network."
In some cases, the complaint says, the social networks place ads next to Islamic State content and share revenue with the terrorist group generated from those ads.
The platforms, though, could be shielded from the suit under provisions of the 1996 Communications Decency Act, which does not hold websites liable for content users post.
"[Social networks] can censor more or less anything they want and it also have incredible abilities to leave up as much as they want to leave up," said Ryan Calo, professor of law at the University of Washington and co-director of the school's Tech Policy Lab.
In a statement on its website, Facebook said there was "no place for terrorists or content that promotes or supports terrorism," but also said the suit was "without merit" and pledged to defend itself "vigorously."
Twitter also said the suit was "without merit."
"Violent threats and the promotion of terrorism deserve no place on Twitter and, like other social networks, our rules make that clear," a spokesman said.
Google declined to comment on pending litigation and defended its "strong track record of taking swift action against terrorist content."
But Altman said the networks do far too little to police their users.
When a site deactivates one account, another pops back up to take its place without much oversight.
"It's like whack-a-mole," he said. "I don't think ISIS could sustain their operation without these social networks."
The first conference set for the case is in September.
The case is Gonzalez et. al v. Twitter, Inc., Google, Inc., and Facebook, Inc."

I love coconut milk…
…and free things.
If you love free things, read on, because you will get a chance to win your very own free strainer bag!
I don't have a problem with dairy, although many of my friends and their children can't have dairy for one reason or another. Coconut milk makes a great substitute for dairy milk, and a delicious addition to many recipes!
Unfortunately, most store-bought coconut milk has thickeners and stabilizers, including carrageenan* which is an inflammatory and generally not-nice ingredient. Avoid if possible! Also, organic coconut milk is expensive.
Fortunately, making coconut milk is really easy!
All you need is unsweetened shredded coconut, a blender, and a fine-mesh bag (I use a cotton jelly strainer bag).
I get my organic shredded coconut at The Common Crow for $2.99 a pound (bulk)
Measure 2 cups of coconut into the blender:
Add add four cups of warm filtered water.
Not boiling or very hot water, because you will destroy any enzymes in the coconut and it will get sour faster.
Let the coconut soak in the warm water for about ten minutes so that the oils will melt and separate from the fibrous shreds. Blend on high for a while until well blended. You want the coconut to achieve a fine texture.
Once it seems nice and blended, set a fine-mesh bag into a large measuring cup (2-4 cups), pour in some of the mixture, and squeeze out all the liquid.
One great benefit is that the byproduct leftover in the bag (the pulp) is actually coconut flour! You can dry it out (in a dehydrator or low-temp oven) and use in recipes that call for coconut flour! You may need to put it in a blender again after it's dried to achieve a more homogenous texture.
Once your milk is all strained, pour it into glass jars and store in the fridge! 🙂

7 years ago
Made it this morning and it was Yuuummmm-eeeeeee!!
I used a belgium waffle maker so it probably didn't turn out exactly the way you intended it to be but it was still better than the recipe I was using. Thank you!!
Yay!!! I am so excited:):):)ReplyDelete
Kia - ok, I need to invest & buy a waffle machine just so I can try out this recipe. Looks delicious! We usually eat pancakes but I love waffles. By the way, great blog my friend!

Criminal Profiling Topic of the Day: We LOVE you, Seung-Hui Cho!
Well, let me levy some. While I feel pity for the little boy Cho was before he turned into the antisocial beast that committed such a hideous mass murder, I feel nothing but disgust for the vicious cold-blooded killer he became. He deserves no empathy considering he had none for his victims and their families. He deserves no forgiveness from us folks who did not lose a loved one to this psychopath because only true victims of this man have the right to make that choice. For that matter, Cho deserves no forgiveness from anyone because he has asked for none; the matter is now between Cho and God and let's let God decide for Himself what to do with Cho's soul if he has one.
If this act of honoring Cho is the right thing to do, well then let's name a hall after Ted Bundy at the Florida university where he slaughtered a number of his victims. Let's start Hitler Day and Assassins Week. Let's take a killer out to dinner.
For God's sake, America, how much lower can we sink then when we blur wrong and right to such an extent we can't even distinguish the difference in the worth of the life of a brutal mass murderer who never gave society anything but destruction, sadness, and misery and the lives of thirty-two innocent victims whose loss is devastating to all of us? My guess is we have hit rock bottom.

2. To travel to Hawthorne in the winter, when the road through Yosemite is closed, one drives through Reno. Thankfully, I had a reason to be in Reno: to see two exhibitions at the Nevada Museum of Art. Even aside from the museum, the city is something fun to pass through, like running one's fingers through a faux fur coat in a thrift shop. (You know that fur coat has been to Burning Man and back). The casinos of Reno present a sonic glitter and sensory spectacle at great contrast to the outlying desert.
3. The first exhibition I saw at the museum was Landscape Futures, guest-curated by Geoff Manaugh. (Hurry to get out there, it closes Feb. 12th) This room, packed with objects, contraptions, drawings, and dreams at all scales, reminds me of Borges' citation of "a certain Chinese encyclopedia" in which animals are categorized: "a. those that belong to the Emperor, b. embalmed ones, c. those that are trained, .... h. those included in the present classification, i. those that tremble as if they were mad, j. innumerable ones, k. those drawn with a very fine camelhair brush... " and so on. How is it that all these things exist in a single space? We could say it is testament to the imaginative power of the curator, which is no doubt true. It is also compelling to look at the atmosphere which allows these things to exist together.
One must hold in suspense a certain scale, say 1:48, when looking at mountains of vegetation and models of drone/ferret hybrids scurrying about. Swelling to fill a two-story volume immediately adjacent is a Goldbergian machine without scale, standing in for some planetary hydrological system consisting of wind sails, pumps, and a simulator for the moon's gravitational pull on the earth. On a wall nearby, large images of London and New York are shown as living museums in a world not much more absurd than the one we know. Then, glossy faceted objects painted in bright colors - things made at a 1:1 scale - are to be worn by human beings in order to experience the sensory kaleidoscope of an ant. We don't get to try them on, but that's part of the point.
4. The other show at the Nevada Museum of Art is The Altered Landscape, a selection of photography which in a broad swath, "examine(s) human interaction and intervention with environments". My brother, on our drive out of Reno, made it clear to me the value of having just witnessed all of these photographs of massive-scale interventions in the landscape--rock quarries, gold mines, river deltas, and Christo. We were flying past some gravel yard on the I-80 and it was though we were seeing these trucks and mounds of rock as alien interventions. Who is it that makes piles out of earth, who carves terraces out of mountains and yet, as large as these interventions may seem, how small they are, and how unchanging the earth is. So, the opposite is also true: when viewed at a large enough scale, a landscape is immutable.
5. The museum was our threshold to the desert, the vestibule which permitted a shift in atmosphere as we left behind the anthropocentric city. I gained a new appreciation for the museum as a perceptual acclimatizer, just as it is necessary to physically acclimatize in order occupy the desert (warm clothes for the winter, drinking water, chapstick, etc) The museum enabled us to see on another level, which, in turn, I am always translating to the world of sound. What kind of space in a museum might permit an acoustic threshold. Further, how might we hear in the small space of a gallery a sound at the grand scale of the desert.
6. Over halfway to Hawthorne, we pulled off the road to eat a lunch of Manchego cheese, salted almonds, and olives. Foods from some far off, verdant land, preserved by salt. What a luxury to eat salty things in the desert, for we could quest our thirst with the greatest ease with the water we drove in with. In that case it wasn't a true desert. Each town which offered us human comforts negated the desert. Even the road itself, while beautiful in its simplicity, negates the desert. It is the string which reminds us we are still tethered to the city.
7. A lake stretched out below us, its blues shifting into greens superimposed by the reflection of yellow hills on the far shore. Hundreds of small white objects appeared to float motionless in the lake. As we scrambled down the rocks, I could see these were not inanimate objects but rather birds, probably Loons. Here and there, the birds ducked down to get something in the water. They were a long distance off, probably a quarter-mile away. And yet, when we stopped rummaging through the bag of almonds and sat silent, you could hear each of the birds make their tiny moves in the water. The astounding thing was this: the landscape was so massive, and here were these tiny sounds that were almost negligible yet still audible. There would be no way to hear them at that distance if not for the stillness of the air.
8. T.E. Lawrence said he liked the desert because it was clean.
9. The United States Navy also liked the desert because it was clean. In 1930, by order of Congress, a new ammunition depot was opened which would later service the war in the Pacific. And so Hawthorne, Nevada--our destination--became a bunker city. There are over 2,400 bunkers containing 600,000 square feet of storage for weapons, bombs, and other such not-so-clean things. Curiously, the Wikipedia article linked to above lists as "capabilities of the center" both "demilitarization" and "ammunition renovation".
But that's par for the course when it comes to the history of the military and the desert. The apparent 'cleanliness' of the desert has always provided an excuse to drop bombs and test missiles. I have witnessed this elsewhere--for example, at White Sands, New Mexico. The desert does not demonstrate the same malleability when it comes to demilitarizing.
|Hawthorne Army Depot via Google Maps
10. I had recently finished reading Seeing is Forgetting the Name of the Thing One Sees, a conversation with the artist Robert Irwin. He describes visits to the desert outside Los Angeles as incredible sensory experiences that he wished to share with others. But to intervene in the desert, to add something (or subtract something ala Michael Heizer) so as to signify "PAY ATTENTION" would be pointless. Whatever it would be, even something as simple as a painted rock or an arrow, would be mistaken for part of the experience itself. The experience of the desert is already complete.

For the past few weeks channels have been popping up every day and they upload a few of my videos. When this happens the videos come to me. Normally I don't have a problem when someone re-uploads my videos but I do prefer if the don't. Taking clips of course is 100% fair use but I am referring to re-uploading entire videos of mine. Usually when someone re-uploads my video I leave it alone but when they put malware in the video description I take action. Every day for the past few weeks I have had to do this. In addition to my videos they upload videos belonging to others. So I take the time to contact the other people and usually in a few hours the channel is shut down.
However I thought this video was funny because this time they decided to re-upload my video about DMCA abuse. I think it was funny filing a DMCA take down on a video about someone abusing the DMCA form.
Here is the video stolen from me
And of course here is the original
For those interested http://www.youtube.com/user/fryyjctd is the channel however I don't know how long that channel will last as every video is pirated and has malware in the video descriptions.

Baby E loves the ball pit and was very happy to be in there, which got us thinking. We would get him a ball pit for Christmas!
We did a small sized one from Tesco back in October/November time. We actually gave it to him before Christmas about November to be exact, because I was excited to see if he'd like it and if he would play with it and have the same amount of fun as at the soft play centre....
Oh how wrong could I be!!
He hated it! Cried EVERY time we put him in it - fantastic!
So it was swiftly packed up and put away.
We took it out again about a week before Christmas and again he was having none of it! - brilliant!
We never bothered taking it out at Christmas as I knew he wouldn't appreciate the present!
I sort of forgot about it as it was in his walk in wardrobe (the one that has hardly anything of Baby E's in it, more a store for all our things we don't have places for yet!)
But a couple of days into January I took it out to see if he would play with it (he now was using some of the balls on his bath and was still playing with the ones at the soft play centre)
I popped him in it and he was quite happy playing it in and trying to shove the whole ball in his mouth!
Everyday I would pop him in it while I was getting his clothes ready for the day. It lives his his bedroom!
Slowly he got confidence and now has a whale of a time in his ball pit!
He kicks his legs wildly, throws the balls around, blows raspberries to the balls and just has a great time!
I'm not sure what's changed but I do think it has a lot to do with his balance as when we first took it out he couldn't sit so we just laid him on the balls.
One thing I do know is that it has a permanent space in Baby E's bedroom and I think I'll be finding rouge balls for years to come!!

UAS and Satellite Data: The Ultimate Geospatial Power Couple
Posted: Wednesday, March 4, 2015 | Author: Woolpert Labscool things, fresh ideas
Woolpert is harmoniously combining our Planet Lab partnership and UAS expertise to produce new, game-changing geospatial technology.
Woolpert entered into the Key Partners Program with Planet Labs on Oct. 28, 2014, originally announcing that we would be able to produce new and insightful products that will be relevant to many industries and applications.
We're putting words into action; we are about to take our work with Planet Labs to the next level by integrating UAS to create a strategic power couple.
Because the use of UAS and satellite data pair perfectly together for several reasons (especially in regards to Labs), in the near future, we plan to use satellite imagery from Planet Labs to tip and cue our UAS to take closer looks on the ground.
Planet Labs satellite data provides a large geographic coverage and a consistent schedule of revisits over an area. This cadence syncs well with the spatial resolutions made possible by UAS, in some cases as accurate as 1 to 2cm.
"With that cadence and geographic coverage, we can establish well-defined watch boxes in which to look for changes and, based on those changes, send in aircraft to get the spatial and hyperspectral resolution that we can combine with the temporal resolution from satellites to get more data on the changes," Matt Hutchinson, Woolpert UAS expert explained. "It will be a huge improvement."
While we are excited for the possibilities for the near future, we also live in the now.
Today, this aerial acquisition is performed immediately using a cost-effective manned aircraft and a custom sensor payload developed by Woolpert. A UAS will be able to perform this aerial acquisition in the future. The imagery is then provided via the cloud to clients and also used for further analysis if needed via application of additional algorithms.
The Planet Labs and Woolpert partnership represents an evolution in capability, especially with UAS as part of the equation.
If we've piqued your interest, please feel free to contact Jill Kelley at email@example.com. Sample imagery from Planet Labs can also be seen at our.planet.com.

Brief Summary
Stroke is the fifth leading cause of death in the United States and a leading cause of major disability. Worse outcomes are associated with secondary systemic (e.g., hypotension, hyperthermia) and intracranial (e.g., brain swelling, hemorrhage, seizure, vasospasm) insults, as well as unknown factors. Previous studies have identified a high incidence of a cortical pathology known as spreading depression in the days following acute ischemic stroke, hemorrhagic stroke, and subarachnoid hemorrhage. Spreading depressions (SD) are waves of mass neuronal/astrocytic depolarization that actively propagate a breakdown of ion homeostasis through injured brain cortex and may cause expansion of tissue infarction.
The objective of this study is to determine whether SDs act as secondary insults and should be treated to improve neurologic outcome after stroke. The occurrence, characteristics, and impact of SD on tissue infarction and neurological outcome will be assessed in patients with scalp surface electrodes using electroencephalography (EEG) and with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The primary outcome measure will be the modified Rankin Scale (mRS) at 30 days and secondary outcome measures will include the volume of infarct by MRI at 30 days as well as other clinical measures. Standard-of-care medical, physiologic, and imaging data will be collected to achieve secondary objectives of determining the role of SD in the neurovascular disease process. The study will be a single-site, prospective, observational study.
Hypothesis: CSD activity occurring after neurovascular injury is common and easily identifiable.
Secondary Objectives: 1. Determine the relationship of SD severity/incidence with clinical outcome. 2. Determine the relationship of SD severity/incidence with radiographic outcome. 3. Determine the relationship of SD severity/incidence with delayed deterioration, as measured, for instance, by PbrO2, intracranial pressure (ICP), cerebral blood flow, and neurologic exams. 4. Identify characteristics of initial injury, physiology and therapies (e.g. CT, glucose, blood pressure, temperature, medications, etc) associated with SD occurrence.
Inclusion Criteria
- Age: ≥ 18 years old
- Diagnosis of stroke (ischemic, hemorrhagic, or subarachnoid hemorrhage)
- Expected admission for ≥ 48 hours
Exclusion Criteria
- Any failure to meet above criteria
- Pregnancy

In 1792, during the Third Anglo-Mysore War, there was mention of two rocket units fielded by Tipu Sultan, 120 men and 131 men respectively. Lt. Col. Knox was attacked by rockets near Srirangapatna on the night of 6 February 1792, while advancing towards the Kaveri River from the north. The Rocket Corps ultimately reached a strength of about 5000 in Tipu Sultan's army. Mysore rockets were also used for ceremonial purposes. When the Jacobin Club of Mysore sent a delegation to Tipu Sultan, 500 rockets were launched as part of the gun salute.
During the Fourth Anglo-Mysore War, rockets were again used on several occasions. One of these involved Colonel Arthur Wellesley, later famous as the First Duke of Wellington. Wellesley was defeated by Tipu's Diwan, Purnaiya, at the Battle of Sultanpet Tope. Quoting Forrest,
At this point (near the village of Sultanpet, Figure 5) there was a large tope, or grove, which gave shelter to Tipu's rocketmen and had obviously to be cleaned out before the siege could be pressed closer to Srirangapattana island. The commander chosen for this operation was Col. Wellesley, but advancing towards the tope after dark on the 5 April 1799, he was set upon with rockets and musket-fires, lost his way and, as Beatson politely puts it, had to "postpone the attack" until a more favourable opportunity should offer.
The following day, Wellesley launched a fresh attack with a larger force, and took the whole position without losing a single man. On 22 April 1799, twelve days before the main battle, rocketeers worked their way around to the rear of the British encampment, then 'threw a great number of rockets at the same instant' to signal the beginning of an assault by 6,000 Indian infantry and a corps of Frenchmen, all directed by Mir Golam Hussain and Mohomed Hulleen Mir Mirans.
The rockets had a range of about 1,000 yards. Some burst in the air like shells. Others, called ground rockets, would rise again on striking the ground and bound along in a serpentine motion until their force was spent. According to one British observer, a young English officer named Bayly: "So pestered were we with the rocket boys that there was no moving without danger from the destructive missiles …". He continued:
The rockets and musketry from 20,000 of the enemy were incessant. No hail could be thicker. Every illumination of blue lights was accompanied by a shower of rockets, some of which entered the head of the column, passing through to the rear, causing death, wounds, and dreadful lacerations from the long bamboos of twenty or thirty feet, which are invariably attached to them.
During the conclusive British attack on Srirangapattana on May 2, 1799, a British shot struck a magazine of rockets within Tipu Sultan's fort, causing it to explode and send a towering cloud of black smoke with cascades of exploding white light rising up from the battlements.
On the afternoon of 4 May when the final attack on the fort was led by Baird, he was again met by "furious musket and rocket fire", but this did not help much; in about an hour's time the fort was taken; perhaps within another hour Tipu had been shot (the precise time of his death is not known), and the war was effectively over.
British adoption of the technology
After the fall of Srirangapattana, 600 launchers, 700 serviceable rockets and 9,000 empty rockets were found. Some of the rockets had pierced cylinders, to allow them to act like incendiaries, while some had iron points or steel blades bound to the bamboo.
By attaching these blades to rockets they became very unstable towards the end of their flight causing the blades to spin around like flying scythes, cutting down all in their path.
These experiences eventually led the Royal Woolwich Arsenal to start a military rocket research and development program in 1801, based on the Mysorean technology.
Several rocket cases were collected from Mysore and sent to Britain for analysis. Their first demonstration of solid-fuel rockets came in 1805 and was followed by publication of A Concise Account of the Origin and Progress of the Rocket System in 1807 by William Congreve, son of the arsenal's commandant.
Congreve rockets were systematically used by the British during the Napoleonic Wars and the War of 1812. They were also used in the 1814 Battle of Baltimore, and are mentioned in The Star Spangled Banner, the national anthem of the United States: And the rockets' red glare, the bombs bursting in air

Fourteen people were hospitalised after supporters set off smoke bombs in PSV Eindhoven's Eredivisie clash with Ajax on Sunday.
Thick black plumes filled home sections of the Philips Stadion after supporters ignited the bombs in protest against recent banning orders in Dutch football.
And the match had to be stopped temporarily as the smoke belched out from the stands and across the pitch.
Ten fans and four security guards all received treatment for respiratory issues.
The incident occurred shortly after half-time as PSV led by a goal to nil through Jurgen Locadia's 25th-minute opener.
PSV held on for the victory to keep up the pressure on Ajax in the table.
Third-placed PSV now trail second-placed Ajax by three points with just two games to play this season.
League leaders Feyenoord are all but guaranteed to win the title as they sit four points clear of Ajax.

The Intergender Wrestling Title is Not Safe
Today, a well-placed source gave me this tip that's the best, yet. And while I hate writing about this evolutionary dropout who's been stalking and harassing me for going on four years, how could I not write about something like this?
That's Chadwick's GoFundMe page for funding to further his dream of being a professional wrestler. Yes, at age 37, he's trying to break into the ranks of men who are essentially steroid engorged human dinosaurs and he needs just $15,000 of your hard-earned money for him to achieve that end. (To date, he's only collected $148, $50 from his twin brother Danny, just enough for a large jar of protein powder or maybe 50 Intergender Champion tee shirts).
Now, far be it for me to drag the stylus across any middle aged guy playing "Gonna Fly Now" while he prepares to run up and down the steps of the Weber County Sheriff's Department and get chased by Farr West's trailer park sterno bums and stray dogs. But I'm thinking this is, to put it charitably, a new career path for our Pal Joey. He's back in Farr West, to judge from the visits I've been getting lately from a certain IP address using one of XO Communications' free wifi access networks and the usual idiotic comments that get deleted unread as spam.
I'm thinking this completely different career trajectory is a response to getting shit-canned from King Solomon, which graciously allowed Chadwick to fail upward after he couldn't cut it as a content creator and was made an executive that essentially consisted of him screaming on the phone to elderly authors and extorting money from them to get their own rights back.
Even though Jailbird Joe never told his so-called fan base about it, he never mentioned that sweet deal at Masada/King Solomon or his move to Israel (His profile on GoFundMe lists him in Ogden, Utah). I think maybe this time, actually mentioning that gig that he got 23 months ago would be an equivocation. Because leave it to Dickhead Dave Chadwick to fuck up the sweetest gig that he ever had handed to him in his privileged, right wing excuse of a life.
So, are you listening, Vince McMahon? There's a new wrestler in town and all he needs is $14,852 more to realize his dream of maybe tag teaming with his other obsessive interest, Becky Lynch. He needs money for training, for theme music (Like this, for instance). After all, we've seen novelty wrestlers such as midgets. Why not open a division for mental flyweights?

Until her departure in 2015, she was the second longest serving female character after Victoria Sugden who was born a few weeks before Betty first arrived. Although Betty did not appear on the show inbetween December 2011 and July 2012. She was played by Paula Tilbrook, who is the current longest serving actress in the show. In late 2011 Betty went on a cruise. She returned on the 16th July 2012. Betty went on another cruise in July 2014 and Paula Tilbrook came back in May 2015 to film her final exit scenes. Paula Tilbrook had announced her retirement from the show in April 2015. Betty's departure episode was Episode 7191 (25th May 2015). She made a cameo in Episode 7381 (25th December 2015) via the internet where she Skyped Pearl and Sandy when they were in The Woolpack. She said she loves Australia.

Wally Eagleton (1954-1993)
Tiller Girl (1953), Cleaner (1994-present), Retired
Played by
Betty Prendagast was born in Beckindale on the 22nd January, the year is only known to her as she is very reticent about her age. (She has said she was born in 1934 but she almost married Seth Armstrong in 1944 and it is very unlikely she would have been prepared or allowed to get married at 10 years old). Her parents were Arthur and Nora Prendegast and she had a sister Margaret Prendegast. Betty left Beckindale in the early 1950s to work as a tiller girl in London, and she was also on the game. She met a man called Reggie Wilkie and he got her pregnant and she had an abortion which made her unable to have any more children in the future. She then returned to Beckindale and married old schoolfriend Wally Eagleton in 1954. They later left the village. After 39 years of marriage Wally Eagleton died in 1993 and Betty returned to Beckindale after years of living in Filey. On the night of the plane crash on the 30th December that year, her old flame Seth Armstrong sought refuge at her house after he had been thrown of the Woolpack by landlord Alan Turner. Many residents thought that Seth had actually returned to his home in Demdyke Row, and had died when the building was hit by wreckage from the plane.
1994-2011Edit60 year old Betty turned up in the Woolpack in April 1994. The village was renamed Emmerdale after the plane crash and was Emmerdale Village. She soon rekindled her love with Seth Armstrong and in Christmas 1994 they held a 1940s theme night at the Woolpack. Betty soon became known as one the the village busybodies and had a nasty streak to her. She caught Tina Dingle collecting some of Luke McAllisters belongings after his death in an accident and accused her of stealing from the dead. Betty was against Zoe Tate's 1996 lesbian marriage to Emma Nightingale and tried to call it off.
In early September 1997, Betty wanted to be in a local Spice Girls tribute band but Kelly Windsor said we did not want "Wrinkly Spice" in the group. In May 1999 Alan sacked Betty from the Woolpack only to take her back on before announcing he was selling the pub. In January 2000, Betty's ex Reggie turned up in the village. It transpired that they had known each other when Betty was working as a tiller girl in London in the 1950s. Betty claimed she found she was pregnant and when she went to tell Reggie she saw him in bed with another woman and had an abortion, causing her to not be able to have children afterwards. Reggie threatened to tell Seth and blackmailed Betty. When Betty told Seth he sent Reggie packing.In March 2000 Seth was injured in the bus crash and Betty looked after him while he recovered but Seth was mugged in September 2000 and refused to tell Betty. He later told her and broke down in front of her. In 2004 she took an extended holiday to visit Kathy Brookman in Australia and Seth, who had taken an extended holiday out there. Betty returned to Emmerdale that year. Seth remained in Australia. In October 2005, Betty was all ready for Seth to return home and held a welcome home party only to be told that Seth had died on the plane coming over. Seth was buried in November 2005. After Alan Turner had all his issues over his son Terence being found to have abused Steph as teenagers which eventually lead to Terence's death, Betty grew close to Turner in terms of friendship and he then made a pass at her.
2012-2015EditBetty returned from her extended holiday in July 2012, having left Emmerdale in late 2011. Actress Paula Tilbrook took a break from the show in late 2011 due to ill health but returned to filming in June and her character returned on the 16th July and was instantly doing what she does best, gossiping. Good old Betty was back. On her birthday in January 2013 Betty got drunk in the Woolpack and had to be escorted home by Victoria Sugden. Betty and Alan Turner went on a cruise shortly afterwards. She was next seen in Episode 6541 (1st May 2013). In July 2013 Betty's landlady Victoria Sugden upset Betty but made it up with a meal, in which Betty fell ill and accused Victoria of spiking her dinner.
In October 2013, Betty found her long term friend Alan Turner dead in bed and gave a speech that night. She attended his funeral. In 2014, Betty gave advice to Dominic Andrews and he kissed her on the head. Betty then went on a cruise. In April 2015, Edna said Betty was in Australia.
In May 2015, Victoria Sugden saw the removal men taking all of Betty' stuff out of Keepers. Betty returned to Emmerdale that day and was staying at the B&B. All her friends held a welcome home party for her. She said it should really be a bon voyage party as she is going back to Australia for good tomorrow. She met someone. Reuben Archibald is his name. She goes to where Seth is buried to say a final goodbye to him. Etched on the tree was "SA 4 BP 1944". Betty was picked up by Reuben (who looked like Seth) and she said goodbye to everyone. The car drove away as Betty left the village forever.
2015-present, Life in AustraliaEdit
In December 2015, Betty Skyped the locals from Australia via a webcam.
In February 2018, a friend of Betty's, Maisie, came to the village to look for Sandy. She introduced herself as being a mutual friend of Betty Eagleton.
Memorable infoEdit
Born: 22nd January 1934 (Could be earlier but after 1925)
Full Name: Elizabeth Eagleton (Nee Prendegast)
Accoring to the 30 Years Of Emmerdale (Book, published in 2002) Betty's full first name is Bettina, whether this was revealed in the show is unknown. However, in December 2003 when Laurel Thomas booked Betty at ticket to Australia, she read out for "Elizabeth Eagleton".

Mother Nora Prendegast
Siblings Margaret Prendegast

At the end of this week, I will have completed my Co-op work term with SFU Volunteer Services. Throughout these eight months, I have acquired many new skills (in the areas of Event Planning, Design, Social Media, Marketing, etc) and discovered a lot about myself, as a worker, as a student, as a team player, as a leader, and as an individual. Concepts such as chaos theory, happenstances, making mistakes, and the fact that 'there is no plan' have significantly changed the way I think about careers and life in general. Perhaps the most important lesson that I've learned through Co-op is to embrace your unique qualities and try new things with an open mind and optimistic attitude, because you never know where life will take you next!
Volunteer. Lead. Do Something. Make a Difference. Change the World.
