For the second California Lovin’ Indies collaboration Static Lacquer teamed up with Lynae of Fanchromatic Nails. In thinking of October in California there is one landmark that always comes to mind for most Californian’s, the Winchester Mystery House in San Jose, CA. There is even a movie out about this mystery house!
The house was architected by Sarah Winchester widow of the Firearm magnate William Winchester, and it was built with many eccentricities particularly due to her belief in ghosts, there are stairs that lead straight up into the ceiling, doors that let out on the second floor to open air and of course secret corridors.
Static Lacquer brings you Doors to Nowhere a reddish brown jelly polish with holo flakes and a ton of different ucc flakes to capture the stained glass windows.
Doors…reaches opacity in 2 coats and has a smooth glossy finish even without a topcoat. I do recommend a glossy top coat to make sure the jelly base plays off the light.
This is a great Fall color!
Fanchromatic Nails brings you Secret Corridors a minty teal polish that flashes red or gold or blue in different lights. It’s filled with iridescent flakies, and metallic flakies that shift purple or green with the green shift being the strongest of the the two, to mimic the effect of an antique stained glass window.
Secret…reaches full opacity in 2 coats and dries to a smooth glossy finish.
The Winchester California Lovin’ Indies duo will be available for pre-sale on October 1st at 8am pst and end on October 5th at 11:59 pm pst. The duo will be $20 + $4 shipping. Each duo contains a California Lovin’ Indies vinyl sticker (as seen above) I put mine on my helmer.

Fire Pits: Bad Rap or Death-Trap?
Fire pits can be a fun outdoor activity in the chillier months of the year. With the holiday season approaching, roasting marshmallows over a fire seems like a very appealing activity that can fun for both adults and children. According to a recent survey, 67% of homeowners said they wanted an outdoor fire to keep parties going as the night air gets nippy. However, fire pits can be very dangerous to homeowners and the environment, especially if they are not properly tended. The United States Fire Administration reports that approximately 5,000 Americans are injured by charcoal, wood-burning or propane gas fires. Fire pits are included among this statistic and come with many safety risks. While we recommend avoiding the fire pit scenario all together, many of you will continue to fuel the fire pit regardless of the warning signs. If you insist on burning, here are some tips to do so safely and some reasons why fire pits have earned their well-deserved bad rap!
Fire Pits: Why The Bad Rap?
So why are fire pits getting such a bad rap lately? According to the United States Fire Administration, in less than 30 seconds a small flame can get completely out of control and turn into a major fire.
The excess of smoke can sometimes lead to lung irritation and have additional environmental concerns. Fire uses up the oxygen you need and produces smoke and poisonous gases that kill. Breathing even small amounts of smoke and toxic gases can make you drowsy, disoriented and short of breath. The Maine Bureau of Air Quality recommends using only seasoned firewood and burning it in a way that promotes complete combustion—small, hot fires are better than large smoldering ones—to minimize the amount of harmful smoke.
We understand that while the reasons are very clear for why you should avoid the fire pit scenario all together, many people insist on burning one this holiday season. For this reason, we have provided some safety guidelines so that your experience will be a safe one! Following certain safety precautions can help reduce your chances of injuries. Use these tips to keep your friendly fire from getting out of control.
Station your fire pit on a level ceramic, concrete, stone or brick surface that’s at least 10 feet from your house, trees, and anything flammable. Don’t put the fire pit on a grassy surface, wood deck, or enclosed porch. Before you light anything on fire, check which direction the wind is blowing to ensure the right location for your fire pit.
Never start a fire with kerosine, alcohol, lighter fluid, or gas. Discard used matches only after they are completely extinguished. Try dipping matches in a cup of water before discarding them to be sure they are completely out. Always burn dry, seasoned wood that was cut at least six months earlier. To keep sparks from flying, make sure logs are no longer than three-quarters of the pit’s diameter.
Be prepared! Keep a bucket of sand, a fire extinguisher, or a garden hose nearby in case things get too hot to handle. Additionally, if any cuts or burns were to occur, be sure you have a first-aid kit handy!
Supervise children at all times when using a fire pit. Teach your children about the dangers of fire and do not leave them unattended by the open flame. Having children sit further back than 3 feet is important, as sparks can still fly from the fire into the open air and cause minor burns and injuries.
Be sure the fire is completely extinguished before leaving it unattended. However, just in case something near or on your house were to catch on fire, it is important to always have a working smoke detector in every home. Consider a monitored smoke alarm from Protect America.
If you’re using a propane gas fire pit you’re going to want to check and make sure that you don’t have any leaks before you start your fire. If an emergency does occur make sure you turn off the gas supply if possible as soon as possible. You should clean your burners and pipes regularly to avoid build up and keep the fire area clear of clutter. Do not add any lighter fluid, gasoline, paper, or any other flammable materials to your propane gas fire pit.
In some places prone to wildfire, disclosing your fire pit may be a requirement of your homeowners insurance policy. It may also be a good idea to check in with an insurance agent to understand any potential impact a fire pit may have on your coverage. Also, be sure to contact your local fire department or municipality to determine if there are any laws against having a fire pit in your backyard. Some counties and cities have laws that prohibit open flames in backyards, and others require your home to be inspected for general safety hazards. Protect America encourages everyone to use and maintain their smoke detectors and remember to be safe this holiday season!

Welcome, Marilyn, tell us a little bit more about yourself.
I wear many hats. Actually, I seldom wear any, but I have a lot of things that I am and do, namely wife and mom, grandmom and great-grandmom, Sunday School teacher, mentor to other writers—and of course a writer myself. I love to read and watch movies.
That’s a good question. I don’t often think in terms of goals except what I plan to accomplish each day. Anyone who is my friend on Facebook knows that I plan out what I’m going to do and then do it. I’ve always derived satisfaction from accomplishing things.
Whenever someone tells me they enjoyed my book—and even more when they tell me things that they loved about it.
Tell us about your new release, Spirit Shapes. Is it available in print and e-book?
In Spirit Shapes, ghost hunters stumble upon a murdered teen in a haunted house. Deputy Tempe Crabtree’s investigation pulls her into a whirlwind of restless spirits, good and evil, intertwined with the past and the present, and demons and angels at war.
And yes, it is available in both formats.
I was brought up in God-loving, church going family and of course this does have some influence on my writing—I shut bedroom doors (people can use their imaginations) and I don’t use “bad language” in my books. Yes, some of the characters curse—I just don’t quote them.
As far as environment, I use where I live as the basis for the Deputy Tempe Crabtree series, the Southern Sierra (the mountain range at the eastern edge of California’s central valley). Tempe is the resident deputy in the town of Bear Creek which has a strong resemblance to the town closest to me. The actual Bear Creek is much like the Tule River which runs through town and in back of my house. Because we have an Indian reservation as a neighbor and Tempe is Native American as are some other characters in the series, and the reservation sometimes has a part in the books.
Where, when, and what is the perfect surrounding when you write?
I write best in my office on my computer in the early morning hours. However, when I’m planning a new book, I can write anywhere—in a notebook, scrap paper, whatever is handy, while I’m riding in a car, at a writing conference, wherever and idea pops into my head.
After hours of writing, how do you unwind?
Usually by doing work that needs to be done in the house, folding laundry, preparing dinner. (Being a writer is such an exciting life.) At least once a week, hubby and I go to town and see a movie and go out to lunch. I don’t do any writing in the evening. Because I get up early, I usually go to bed early though I may watch a little TV, or a movie, or read.
Another way of unwinding is when we go to a conference or a book festival which we love to do, and we treat the trip like a mini-vacation.
The person who comments on the most blogs on this blog tour will have the opportunity to have a character named after him or her in the next Deputy Tempe Crabtree mystery.

Your eating habits can affect immensely your overall health and on specific areas like your hair. First thing you should do is to change you eating habits. The strength of your hair can be affected with poor eating habits so you should make sure you have enough protein in your diet. You need to drink lots of water to rehydrate your hair and your body. If you are a vegetarian, you should eat up on protein food alternatives like nuts, corn and beans.
Drink vitamins or supplements to strengthen your hair. Some vitamins help in restoring the lost dead cells in your body and hair follicles like vitamins E and A. Be sure not to rely entirely on the vitamin supplements. You should feed your hair with the proper diet most importantly.
Another point to remember to help strengthen your hair is to change the way you treat your hair. If you are always a fan of hair styling, take into consideration that hot ironing, curling, straightening and even drying can cause a lot of damage to your hair. It can lessen its strength and break easily. Avoid over styling your hair too much. If you do not need to style your hair with curling or straightening irons, do not. Use only styling tools when really needed.
After you take a shower, avoid brushing your hair when it is wet. Your hair is most vulnerable when wet. Brushing it would damage it. Wait for a few minutes before combing your hair through with a wide toothed comb. Not only will the wide toothed comb detangle your hair effectively, it will not force your hair to get detangled, thus less or no damage at all.
Use hair coloring sparingly. Do not change colors every now and then. You should wait at least 3 months before applying hair coloring again. Perming your hair would lessen your hair's strength so if you can avoid perming your hair, do so.
If you use the same shampoo and conditioner all the time, do not stick to just one brand. Your hair becomes accustomed to it and it becomes too accustomed that sometimes the shampoo and conditioner do not work as well as the first time you used it. If you buy your hair products, buy just the right size to last for a month then change your shampoo to another brand that suits you as well. Alternate hair products to keep your hair strong.
You should trim your hair every two weeks to keep the ends healthy. When your hair ends are riddled with split ends, your hair tends to get brittle and snaps easily.
Use hair treatments every week or month, depending on the treatment you are going to use. If you use a home hair treatment like intensive moisturizing or hot oil treatment, you should follow the treatment directions for every week application.
Always remember to feed your hair the right vitamins and supplements so it will always stay strong. Remember that your hair is probably the next most abused part of your body next to your skin.

Congress has already successfully funded 75 percent of the federal government through 2019, including the Department of Defense, as well as the Department of Health and Human Services and the Department of Labor.
I am actively working with my colleagues and the president to reopen the government and secure our borders, and I believe my colleagues can and should come to a bipartisan consensus on this national security issue, while keeping the government fully operational.
Below are a few common Q&As and resources regarding federal services during a partial government shutdown. Please don’t hesitate to contact my office or visit my website for additional details.
Q: Will I still receive my Social Security checks?
A: Yes. Social Security checks will continue to be mailed out.
Q: Will I still be able to send/receive mail?
A: Yes. The United States Postal Service has its own revenue stream outside of the federal government.
Q: Will air travel be affected?
A: Air traffic controllers, TSA and Customs officers will continue working, so air traffic should be largely unaffected.
Q: Will Smithsonian Museums remain open?
A: As of Wednesday, January 2, 2019, Smithsonian Museums in Washington, D.C., as well as the National Zoo will be closed until the government reopens.
Q: Will I still receive my Medicare checks?
A: Yes. Medicare checks will continue to be mailed out.
Q: Will I still get my food stamps?
A: Yes. Food stamps will continue to be distributed.
A: War memorials and open air parks will remain open to the public. Many national parks, refuges and other public lands will try to allow limited park access wherever possible.
For more information regarding national parks during a shutdown, please visit the United States Department of Interior.
Q: What will happen to our military?
A: Active-duty military will continue in a normal duty status and global military operations will continue. Active duty members of the military are exempt from shutdown furloughs.
Q: Will VA facilities be affected?
A: The Department of Veterans Affairs’ funding has already appropriated for FY2019, so veterans hospitals will maintain routine operations. Revenue streams for veteran disability pay and GI Bill benefits are separate from the annual appropriations bills, so this pay will be unaffected.
For more information regarding veterans services during a shutdown, please visit the United States Department of Veterans Affairs website.
Q: Will military contractors be affected?
For more information regarding military policies during a shutdown, please visit the United States Department of Defense website.
Q: Can non-furloughed employees perform other work?
A: If the non-furlough ("excepted') support function can be performed in less than an entire day, the employee is required to resume furlough status after completing the function.
However, there may be cases in which an employee is required to perform this "excepted" support function intermittently throughout the course of the day, and the intervals in between are too short to enable the employee to be furloughed and then recalled in time to perform the function. In such cases, the employee may remain at work, and may perform non-"excepted" functions during these intervals.
For more information regarding federal employees during a shutdown, please visit the Office of Management and Budget.

The relaunched Eagle comic of the early 1980s was an unusual beast as it took one of the popular elements of popular girls titles such as ‘Jackie’, the photo strips, and incorporated it into most of their stories such as Doomlord and Sgt Streetwise. There were very few that were illustrated, one being the flagship title, ‘Dan Dare’. Another one of the early illustrated titles in this relaunch was ‘The Tower King’, and it was beautifully rendered by the Spanish artist Jose Oritz. Oritz also worked on the brilliant ‘House of Daemon’ strip for Eagle, which I plan to do an article on in the future.
‘The Tower King’ was a bleak post-apocalyptic tale set in London that had enough originality to make it interesting and raises it above the atypical ‘after the bomb’ type scenarios that post apocalyptic fiction tends to rely on.
The premise was that a malfunctioning solar satellite affects Earth and as a result the production of electricity ceases. Britain, and specifically London, is in the midst of a terrible winter, and with its infrastructure decimated, descends into chaos. The story focuses on a man, Mick Tempest, an ex-soldier who quickly emerges as a leader, organising his neighbourhood into a functioning community.
As you can see from the scans of the comic included in this article, the artwork really lifts the story, with its inspiration taken from the modern and middle ages with its chain mail and swords mixing with overcoats, and the overall look of the characters acting as a sharp contrast to the modern buildings, such as electrical sub-stations and the London Underground.
The story was a brave one for Eagle, as it was not an obvious choice – a dystopian future London descended into anarchy and squalor by the loss of electricity, topped off with middle ages styling? Try selling that to the young boys of Britain nowadays. I think it was both compelling and brilliantly illustrated and it is a shame that it has never been reprinted (as far as I know). The fact it ran for 24 issues (at 3 pages per issue) makes it little over 2 standard American comic book issues, but managed to pack in so much in that relatively short duration makes it all the more remarkable.
“All I know about Alan (Hebden) is that he was the son of Eric Hebden, who was a regular writer for comics like Commando, Battle Picture Library and Lion in the 1960s and Battle Picture Weekly in the 1970s. Alan Hebden was quite a prolific contributor to the latter, probably best known for “Major Eazy” and “El Mestizo”, both drawn by Carlos Ezquerra; he also wrote “Crazy Keller”, drawn by Eric Bradbury, “Fighting Mann” and “Clash of the Guards”, both drawn by Cam Kennedy. Credits outside of Battle include “The Angry Planet” with art by Massimo Belardinelli for Tornado; he also contributed to 2000AD including the long-running series “Meltdown Man” (also with Belardinelli). The last credit I have for him is a Future Shock” in 2000AD issue 551 (5 December 1987) after which he seems to have vanished.
Does anyone have any more information on Alan Hebden? It seems such a pity that he just seems to have disappeared. Still, even if he didn’t write anything after 1987, the likes of ‘Meltdown Man’, and especially ‘The Tower King’ are a great legacy. I could see the latter being made into a great British movie, especially as they are releasing the likes of Doomsday this year. As I said earlier, I plan to cover another great Eagle strip, ‘House of Daemon’, soon.

The mammillary axonal complex is formed by the axons from the lateral, medial mammillary and the dorsal premammillary nuclei which share a branching pattern. Every neuron gives off one axonal stem that bifurcates into 2 branches. One of the branches is directed dorsally to the thalamus and another caudally to the midbrain.

So, I forgot to post in a couple weeks. Oops.
No news on the house hunting front.
Finally I had the idea of dyeing a new piece of aida and going with pinks and corals and just a bit of turquoise, more of a sunset vibe. That worked perfectly.
Anyway, here’s the cushion cover as it currently stands, the spiral pattern got to be more topographical as it got to the edges, kinda wish I’d started that sooner but oh well.
I’ve actually been doing a bunch of gardening, but not the useful sort like weeding Dad’s overgrown vegetable garden. I did a teeny bit of weeding in the front flower bed, but not nearly enough.
And today I sheared back my lavenders so they won’t get so damn woody and leggy as they did last year, when I was somehow under the impression you didn’t need to do anything with them.
At least my green bin smells awesome, lol.
The other week I took advantage of the start of the clearance sales on annuals to juice up my pathetic hanging baskets with some cheap fillers. I’d tried planting from seeds in them, but well, that didn’t work as well as I’d hoped, probably because I planted them late and didn’t really dress the soil or anything. Oh well.
Since inserting the annuals, I’ve been pouring on the Miracle Gro once a week, which helps.
Those green ones are hen and chicks and seriously packed. I got them for 5 bucks a pack, and by the time I’m done separating them out and repotting all the babies on their own, I expect to have about 30 of them. Not a bad start, and I’ll likely pick up more packs this week.
The black ones don’t have any babies, but they do have some leaves I can pluck off for propagation over the winter.
I got the pot on clearance at London Drugs for 7 bucks (and another powder blue one with the same starfish/anchor/fish motif). When I got it home I noticed there was no drainage hole, and I debated using it for planting anyway since I’ve seen gardening YouTube videos that say it’s no big deal, you just water less often, but then I wanted to make some water features once I move into my new house and figured since this is small it was a good practise run and it will fit on the stoop at Dad’s house in the meantime.
I bought the smallest pond/fountain submersible pump they have at Dinter’s along with a foot of 1/2″ pond tubing, then took an old 6″ nursery pot I had kicking around, pulled the tubing through one of the bottom holes to keep it upright, and cut a notch out of the rim so the power cord could come up through it. I then put the pump, tube, and pot assembly in the blue pot, put it on the stoop, and started filling the pot with various large and medium rocks I’ve picked up on local beaches. I then filled it with water and plugged it in and rearranged some of the rocks on top so as to change how the water comes out (looks like it emerges from under a flatter rock on top) and put some oyster shells on the very top.
So now when I sit on the front walkway at my little bistro set (as I’m doing now), I can hear some bubbling water.
Other than that it’s been the usual: working on new music and demos, and making obnoxious iguana podcasts (Zamo the Destroyer).

So , I forgot to post in a couple weeks . Oops .
 No news on the house hunting front .
 Finally I had the idea of dyeing a new piece of aida and going with pinks and corals and just a bit of turquoise , more of a sunset vibe . That worked perfectly .
 Anyway , here ’s the cushion cover as it currently stands , the spiral pattern got to be more topographical as it got to the edges , kinda wish I ’d started that sooner but oh well .
 I ’ve actually been doing a bunch of gardening , but not the useful sort like weeding Dad ’s overgrown vegetable garden . I did a teeny bit of weeding in the front flower bed , but not nearly enough .
 And today I sheared back my lavenders so they wo n’t get so damn woody and leggy as they did last year , when I was somehow under the impression you did n’t need to do anything with them .
 At least my green bin smells awesome , lol .
 The other week I took advantage of the start of the clearance sales on annuals to juice up my pathetic hanging baskets with some cheap fillers . I ’d tried planting from seeds in them , but well , that did n’t work as well as I ’d hoped , probably because I planted them late and did n’t really dress the soil or anything . Oh well .
 Since inserting the annuals , I ’ve been pouring on the Miracle Gro once a week , which helps .
 Those green ones are hen and chicks and seriously packed . I got them for 5 bucks a pack , and by the time I ’m done separating them out and repotting all the babies on their own , I expect to have about 30 of them . Not a bad start , and I ’ll likely pick up more packs this week .

Interestingly, a timeout will not execute until all of the remaining code in a block has executed. So if a timeout is set, and then some long running function executes, the timeout will not even start until that long running function has finished. In actuality, async functions like setTimeout and setInterval are pushed onto an queue known as theEvent Loop.
The underlying XmlHttpRequest (XHR) object sends the request, and the callback function is set to handle the XHR’s readystatechange event. Then the XHR’s sendmethod executes. As the XHR performs its work, an internal readystatechange event fires every time the readyState property changes, and it’s only when the XHR finishes receiving a response from the remote host that the callback function executes.
This code executes the two asynchronous functions, and each function accepts a “done” callback that executes after the async function finishing running. When both “done” callbacks finish, the parallel function’s callback executes and handles any errors or results from the two async functions.
In this code, the geocode method executes twice and returns a promise. The async functions then execute and call resolve in their callbacks. Then, once both have calledresolve, the then executes, returning the results of the first two calls to geocode. The results are then passed to getRoute, which also returns a promise. Finally, when the promise from getRoute is resolved, the doSomethingCoolWithDirections callback executes.
A similar method of publishing messages uses the mediator pattern, used in thepostal.js library. In the mediator pattern, a middleman for all objects listens to and publishes events. In this approach, one object does not have a direct reference to another, thereby de-coupling the objects from each other.
In the previous example, the doSomethingCoolWithDirections callback function executes when the two previous geocode functions have completed. ThedoSomethingCoolWithDirections can then take the response it recieved from getRouteand publish the reponse as a message.
This allows other areas of the application to respond to the asynchronous callback without needing a direct reference to the request-making object. It’s possible that multiple areas of a page need to update when directions have been retrieved. In a typical jQuery Ajax setup, the success callback would need to be adjusted when recieving a change of directions. This can become difficult to maintain, but by using messaging, updating multiple parts of the UI is much easier to work with.
Some other mediator pattern-based messaging libraries are amplify, PubSubJS, andradio.js.

Shares of Marathon Oil Corporation (NYSE:MRO) fell 10.3% in November, according to data provided by S&P Global Market Intelligence. Weighing on the oil stock was the price of crude, which plunged last month, overshadowing the company's solid third-quarter results.
Crude prices tumbled 22% due to a complete reversal of the market's view on the oil supply picture. Instead of worrying that there might not be enough oil to meet demand as the U.S. reimposed sanctions on Iran, the market is now concerned that there may be too much after the U.S. granted waivers so that most of Iran's customers could continue buying its oil. That slump in crude caused most oil stocks to sell off last month, since lower prices will impact their cash flows. In Marathon's case, it had generated $630 million in excess cash this year due to higher-than-expected oil prices, the bulk of which it used to buy back stock.
That slump in oil prices caused investors to quickly forget about Marathon Oil's strong third-quarter results. The company earned an adjusted $0.24 per share for the quarter, which beat the consensus estimate by $0.04 per share. Further, thanks to its strong drilling results this year, Marathon now expects to grow its production from shale by 30% to 34%, which is up from its prior range of 28% to 32%. What makes that even more impressive is that Marathon is growing at a faster pace without increasing capital spending.
While the slump in oil prices will cut into Marathon's cash flow, the company remains well positioned to handle lower oil prices. That's because it built its business to thrive on $50 oil and also has a cash-rich balance sheet to help cushion the blow. That's why last month's sell-off looks like a good buying opportunity for those who are bullish on oil over the long term.
