5th Special Forces Group (Airborne) Public Affairs
Fort Campbell, KY – Soldiers, family members, and friends of the 5th Special Forces Group (Airborne), also known as The Legion, gathered together on Gabriel Field to remember their fallen during a Memorial Ceremony, May 18th.
To a passerby, Gabriel Field may resemble a typical parade field where units conduct ceremonies, training or host unit events, but to the families and Soldiers of the Legion, it is more than that. It is hallowed ground. It is a place of remembrance.Gabriel Field was named in honor of Specialist 5 James P. Gabriel, who was one of the first Green Berets to be killed in Vietnam. It is memorialized with 57 markers placed around the perimeter of the field, each shadowed by an oak tree in remembrance of those who paid the ultimate sacrifice in training or combat operations.
Although the landscape surrounding Gabriel Field changed slightly throughout the last year with the destruction of several older buildings, the commitment from the Legion to remember the fallen and their families was unaffected.
"We [members of the Legion] choose to continue to serve; carrying on the work and the mission that these men were so dedicated to. We choose not to forget, to never forget," Col. Scott Brower, commander of 5th SFG (A), said. "We also choose to remember the families of our fallen. They have dealt with incredible loss, often helping us to deal with that same loss, and they continue once again helping us to understand how to move forward."
Everyone in attendance was reminded of the shining example of commitment and service many Legion Gold Star families' provide to other families dealing with similar sacrifices. It is through their selfless sacrifice that they work supporting casualty assistance centers, talking with families, or helping care givers to understand what it means to come into a home of a grief stricken family.
Brower echoed the sentiments felt by every Legionnaire as he reaffirmed the Legion's commitment to the Gold Star families.
"Your sacrifice is not lost to the men and women standing before you on the field today and not to the men and women that continue to serve around the world each and every day. We understand what these families have sacrificed because we are all part of the same family – the Legion family," Brower stated. "Our commitment to this family, much as to this Nation, is not dictated by a date on the calendar or tied to a specific event. Our commitment is eternal."
On this day, whether they were standing in formation, sitting in the stands, or placing a symbolic rose on a memorial marker, everyone at the ceremony and those who could not attend, were connected and committed to one another. The ceremony displayed how strong a bond is within a family; never fading regardless of time or distance.

LAS VEGAS--The Comdex crowds got an Economics 101 lesson Wednesday as a presidential economic adviser offered a sobering analysis of the tech industry's future.
Corporate overinvestment in technology in the late 1990s will mean that even when the U.S. economy does pick up, technology spending is likely to lag, said Carlos Bonilla, special assistant to President George W. Bush for economic policy, speaking at the Comdex Fall 2002 trade show. That, he acknowledged, has been a bitter pill to swallow.
"It's hard to tell people to live with diminished expectations," said Bonilla, who sits on the National Economic Council. "Part of it is just coming back to earth and realizing that the bubble was exactly that."
Bonilla outlined, using charts and graphs, what many in the audience have experienced firsthand: The economic recovery has been slow and halting, with consumer spending a lone bright spot amid continued declines in manufacturing and other areas.
"Clearly this is an economy coming out of recession more slowly than anyone would like," Bonilla said.
The prolonged falling-off in jobs in the manufacturing sector is an area of concern for technology companies, Bonilla said. "This is a sector that is going to use a lot of the products that the technology industry produces." Later in the keynote speech, he added: "You're not going to do much differently than the companies you are selling to."
Bonilla said the size of the past overspending varies from sector to sector.
"There is decades' worth of fiber optics out there," he said after the speech. "Elsewhere, there is just a lot of new capital, plant and equipment. As a consequence, (companies) won't feel any great urgency to go and replace it."
But Bonilla's speech also held some good news. He pointed to an expected rise in chip sales next year, along with increases--albeit modest ones--in PC sales this year. "Several top tech chiefs say they've seen an increase in business in recent weeks," he said.
Stock answers
In a question-and-answer session, the presidential advisor was asked his thoughts on changing the way dividends are taxed. High-tech companies, notably Microsoft, have been under pressure to return some of their cash to shareholders in the form of a dividend. However, many companies have balked at this, given such payouts are taxed in a way that can hit them hard.
"Treasury Secretary (Paul H.) O'Neill has been very clear that it makes no sense whatsoever to impose a double level of taxation," Bonilla said.
Also in the session, an entrepreneur asked why he wasn't able to get a loan to start a business, but could get a low-interest loan for a $30,000 car.
"Access to capital is no doubt harder right now," Bonilla said. But that may not be a bad thing, he said, noting that historically companies have raised money from friends and family to get their start, or as he called it, "the bank of mom and dad."
"Maybe one of the problems we had in the last bubble is (that) too many small businesses hit the market," Bonilla said.

Strange bruising to players at the time suggests their involvement in illegal supplements.
Former Cornulla Sharks head trainer Trent Elkin has vehemently denied using banned peptides on himself to see if there were any sides affects.
Elkin was the head trainer at the time when he hired sports scientist Stephan Dank, who is considered one of the key witnesses in the Australian Sports Anti-Doping Authority probe into illegal drugs.
Both Elkin and Dank have denied they have ever condoned or administered any illegal peptides.
However, the independent Kavanagh report commissioned by Cronulla, is said to reveal Elkin used the drugs on himself and had blood testing done to ascertain any affects.
"After the substances CJC-1295 and GHRP-6 were supplied to the club Elkin took it on himself to test the substances by self-administering them and then having his blood tested," the report said.

Ribosomal lesions promote oncogenic mutagenesis
Congenital ribosomopathies, such as Diamond-Blackfan anemia, are characterized by germline mutations in ribosomal proteins or assembly factors. These patients initially display hypoproliferation of blood lineages, but are also at an increased risk of developing AML and other types of cancer later on. Recently, in hematological malignancies somatic mutations in ribosomal proteins have been described as well. During the Presidential Symposium Dr Sergey Sulima (KU Leuven, Belgium) presented data explaining how a mutated ribosomal protein can promote oncogenic transformation.
In lymphoid mouse cells the ribosomal protein mutation RPL10 R98S, which is found in T cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T ALL), resulted in hypoproliferation, which in time was rescued by the accumulation of additional mutations. RPL10 R98S cell lines had a higher mutation rate than wild type cells. Moreover,in these cell lines the investigators observed increased oxidative stress and DNA damage.
A high mutational load was observed as well in T ALL patients with mutations in ribosomal proteins, with enrichment for mutations activating the NOTCH1 pathway. Restoring NOTCH1 expression rescued cells from oxidative stress and promoted cell survival. Similarly, chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) patients with ribosomal protein lesions have a high mutational burden, with enrichment for mutations in TP53.
Sulima: "Ribosome dysfunction increases levels of cellular stress, which inhibits proliferation, but at the same time also promotes mutagenesis. Those mutations that can rescue cells from high oxidative stress get selected for, and can cooperate to drive oncogenesis."

Save your whispered words and wishes –
Wasteful mumbles, muttered soft in cold stone spaces:
Hold your pleas to timeless ghosts
And sons of magic births whose fathers left no traces.
Take your sermons, fish and bread,
Your water turned to wine, your bits of unknown bone and hair:
Go kiss your cross-bound tortured son
But don't imagine for one moment I will join you there.
Get your back straight, raise your head
And look beyond the coloured glass of ancient fictions:
Shuck those sanctified deceits
And realise that we're the makers of our own restrictions.
There is no one in this vastness
Waiting to deliver you from all your self-made shame:
The only ears by whom you're heard
Are those that kneel beside you; those whose need is just the same.
Originally from the home of the Bard, now living in Cheshire UK. After a meandering path through music (performing, writing, recording and teaching), theatre, art, mature-studenting and then teaching psychology, counselling skills and statistics in Higher, Further and Adult Education, I find myself at the ripe young age of 52 dabbling in this poetry lark.

Blog or knit more, blog or knit more…
Kept knitting till my hands made the decision for me. Yay icepacks. Five more rows tomorrow and then I think I'll add the seed stitch edging across the top and call the thing done. To quote a little more Moody Blues, "What you want to be, you will be in the end." All along it has wanted to be bigger wider longer than what I'd originally expected and it refused to let me quit any earlier, and I'm glad of that now.
But it seems incomprehensible that I won't have that project still demanding and nagging and bossing me around–how did that happen already? Mixed with, FINALLY! I'm–well, no, I'm not done. Almost. Close!
Yeah, right, just wait, tomorrow I'll look at it and keep right on going past that point because I have the yarn and I can.
Maybe, but I don't think so.

There are so many launchers available for Android that it's not even funny, not that it ever was in the first place. It's to be expected though, especially considering the open nature of the OS. Android is about customization, usability and the freedom to do what you want with your device- at least for the most part. One of the most common uses for a launcher is to speed up the browsing process. In other words, it brings your most used apps and widgets to the forefront. HomeFlip is an extremely lightweight launcher that shows recent apps via unique collapsible panels that can also be customized.
What is it and what does it do
Main Functionality
HomeFlip is a launcher like ADWLauncher EX or Buzz Launcher but it isn't a homescreen replacement app; it is an app launcher. HomeFlip is designed to be light on resources, while offering you quick access to the applications you use most. When tapping the home button, it brings up a unique panel-based interface that launches apps and which can be customized to match your personal tastes.
- Can be used in combination with other homescreen launchers
- Displays recent apps in unique panels which can be customized
- Swipe panels to the left (extend them) to save them as favorites
- Swipe panels to the right (collapse them) to remove them from the list
- Display hidden apps (dismissed) with the tap of a button
- Collapse all panels to display just icons on the edge of the screen and expand them again with the tap of a button
- Supports custom themes (see con below about themes)
- Extensive customization and application settings
- Remarkably lightweight and responsive launcher
- No advertisements whatsoever
- Themes have to be manually installed by downloading from a website and then importing zip files
Unlike other Android launchers, HomeFlip is not designed to replace everything on your device. There are no additional app trays, no homescreen changes and so on and so forth. That means you could certainly use HomeFlip in combination with one of many different launchers.
There's a setting for HomeFlip that allows you to assign a fallback home screen. This means that multiple taps of the home screen will bring you back and forth between the two launchers.
Here's a quick rundown of how it works. The default call button is the software home button for Android. When you tap the home button it calls up a panel based menu. Just like the recent apps list for Android, HomeFlip will display the most recently used apps and they will each appear in their own panel. If you want to designate an app or panel as a favorite, all you have to do is swipe it to the left. The panel itself will extend further across the screen indicating that it's a favorite app. By designating an application as a favorite, it will prevent it from being removed from the list.
At any point in time, you can edit the list and remove items by swiping a panel to the right.
The idea here is to eliminate the need to return to the app drawer and instead offer you streamlined access to your most used apps from anywhere. With HomeFlip you can simply tap the home button and bring up your most used apps from anywhere in the OS.
An appealing animation displays when opening and closing panels, adding to the overall aesthetics of the app. You can also view hidden apps (closed panels) with a single button tap, allowing you to restore any shortcuts you may have accidentally tossed out.
There's a huge list of customization options and advanced features which I'm not going to cover in depth here, because it would just take way too long. Instead, I'll list out the more important options that are available:
- General
- Left handed mode (enable or disable)
- Full screen mode
- Show all apps
- Show only favorites
- Background dimming
- Animations
- Enable or disable them
- Fallback Launcher
- Activation
- Theme
You can customize the appearance of HomeFlip by downloading themes. Although you have to manually import the themes by downloading from a website and then importing zipped packages into HomeFlip.
For reference, HomeFlip uses a mere 12MB of RAM while running, and the install package is only 65KB. Needless to say, for a launcher it's remarkably light on resources.
Conclusion and download link
All in all, HomeFlip is a unique take on an Android launcher app. It was originally designed by XDA member id0x12345, and has since been expanded to be included on Google Play. It's a remarkably lightweight launcher, and it allows instant access to user-defined apps. The real convenience of HomeFlip is that you always have instant access to your most used apps from anywhere on your device. If you're looking for a full-scale homescreen replacement app with an application tray, widget support and homescreen customization you should look elsewhere. However, if you want an app launcher you can use in combination with your current homescreen replacement app, then check out HomeFlip.

This past Saturday I said farewell to the island of Korčula. Time passed so quickly while I was there. I can't believe we're nearly into November! And that means I'll be back in Scotland very soon…can you tell that's all I think about lately?
The best part about Korčula was definitely the citrus fruit. I can't get enough of it! I also enjoyed staying outside of town, away from everyone, because I had ample space to myself and plenty of quiet time. I had an excellent stay there and definitely recommend visiting Korčula in the offseason! It was nice being able to walk around town without swarms of tourists.
The ferry to Dubrovnik was quick and easy. It wasn't crowded at all and only took two hours. I managed to stay outside on the deck the entire time so I could film, and surprisingly, I didn't get sick! I didn't even need to open my pack of candied ginger. Go me!
This is one of my favourite videos so far. Croatia is breath-taking and I can't take these sights for granted.
I'm in Dubrovnik for the next few days before travelling to Dublin. I can't wait to arrive in Dublin because then I'm basically back home! Kuba will visit me in Dublin in less than two weeks, and then my friends Ivy and Leo will meet me in Dublin once they return from their trip abroad to Japan. One of my friends from the university is also studying in Dublin at this time, so I'm looking forward to catching up with her as well! And thanks to Instagram, I'm hoping to meet up with another fruit vegan.
I leave for Dublin Wednesday afternoon. Until then, I'll try to make the most of my time here!
Do you have any recommendations for Dublin?

Kathryn Bigelow's Upcoming Original Motion Picture Detroit Release Full Soundtrack; Film Opens In Theaters August 4, 2017
- Details
- Category: Entertainment News
- Published on Sunday, 23 July 2017 07:44
Motown Records revealed the full track listing for the upcoming original motion picture, DETROIT. The record features original architects of the immortal 'Motown Sound' as well as a new song from GRAMMY® Award-winning multi-platinum hip-hop icons The Roots entitled "It Ain't Fair (feat. Bilal)."
"'It Ain't Fair' was designed to emphasize the importance of social justice through the prism of late-sixties Detroit, which means many things culturally and politically, and also certain things musically,' says The Roots drummer and producer Questlove.
From Kathryn Bigelow, two-time Academy Award®- winning director of THE HURT LOCKER and ZERO DARK THIRTY, and Annapurna Pictures, DETROIT captures one of the most terrifying events during the riots that took place over five tumultuous summer days in 1967.
"It's been fifty years since the events of this film, but the powerful images I saw on the screen reminded me that we're still going through the same things now," says Questlove. "That knowledge produces anger, but not despair: music has the power to express both anguish and hope."
The DETROIT Original Motion Picture Soundtrack captures light amidst one of America's darkest times by illuminating the power at the heart of the Motown, Detroit, and late sixties cultures all at once. It's the sound of change in the face of oppression and a moment of revolution brought to life in song and on screen.
"We're honored and excited to work on such an important and special project as DETROIT," says Motown Records president Ethiopia Habtemariam. "The music from this soundtrack highlights the 'Classic Motown Sound' which is a beautiful accompaniment to the story of tumultuous times in 1967 as well as the struggles we face within society today."

As a distinct label within Capitol Music Group (CMG), Motown is one the most recognizable and influential brands in popular music. The "Motown Sound" became "the sound of young America" with the emergence of its great artists and music in the 1960s that led to massive global success. The label has played a pivotal role in forever changing popular music, as well as having a significant impact on the fabric of political and popular culture. The Motown legacy continues to this day and is now home to such incomparable artists as Ne-Yo, Erykah Badu, Kem, BJ The Chicago Kid, Lil Yachty, Jada Grace and many others.
CAST for DETROIT:
The film features a powerful cast including John Boyega, Chris Chalk, Nathan Davis Jr., Kaitlyn Dever, Austin Hébert, Joseph David-Jones, Malcolm David Kelley, John Krasinski, Jacob Latimore, Anthony Mackie, Jason Mitchell, Hannah Murray, Ben O'Toole, Will Poulter, Jack Reynor, Algee Smith, Peyton Alex Smith, Jeremy Strong, Ephraim Sykes and Leon Thomas III.
Annapurna, founded by Megan Ellison, focuses on creating sophisticated, high-quality content that is critically and commercially conscious while still appealing to a diverse audience. By upholding Ellison's vision to put filmmakers and artists first and preserve their authentic creative voices no matter the genre or medium, in five years, the company has garnered a total of 32 Academy Award nominations for their projects, including ZERO DARK THIRTY, JOY, THE MASTER, FOXCATCHER, and THE GRANDMASTER. Ellison is also one of only four honorees ever to receive two Best Picture nominations in the same year, with HER and AMERICAN HUSTLE, both earning nods in 2014.
Currently, Annapurna is in post-production on Kathryn Bigelow's DETROIT, which it will release as its first distribution title on August 4, 2017. The company is also in production on Paul Thomas Anderson's untitled new period film starring Daniel Day-Lewis and is developing the film adaptation of Maria Semple's WHERE'D YOU GO, BERNADETTE, to be directed by Richard Linklater.
Annapurna's most recent projects include Mike Mills' 20TH CENTURY WOMEN, which was nominated for two Golden Globes and earned Mills a Best Original Screenplay Academy Award nomination, as well as SAUSAGE PARTY, WIENER-DOG, and EVERYBODY WANTS SOME, with THE BAD BATCH set for release by Neon in 2017. Bigelow also directed and partnered with Annapurna on the animated short LAST DAYS, about illegal elephant poaching and the ivory trade.

Grand Junction, CO – Residents of School District 51 are invited to submit their ideas for what to name a new elementary school in Fruita by taking an online survey at https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/fruitaschoolsurvey. The survey will be open until 4 p.m. on Monday, Aug. 19, 2019.
Students, parents, community members, and District 51 staff are all invited to weigh in with their suggestions for a school name. A naming committee will take all of the suggestions and create a list of 10 finalists. A second survey will launch later this month asking people to pick their favorite among the 10 finalists, and the results will be forwarded to the District 51 School Board and the Superintendent's Office to make a final selection.
The winning name will be announced at a groundbreaking at 4:30 p.m. on Tuesday, Sept. 17, at the new school site near K.4 and 18 ½ roads. The District 51 School Board will formally adopt the name by approving a resolution following the groundbreaking at a 6 p.m. board meeting in the Harry Butler Board Room at 455 N. 22nd St.
Construction of the new, $25 million elementary school in Fruita will be funded by a combination of bond savings and premiums from the 2017 bond measure. Board members decided to use bond money to build a Fruita elementary school in addition to all of the projects promised in the 2017 ballot measure because of current and projected growth in Fruita and because elementary schools are far more affordable than middle or high school projects.

Everyone wants to make new friends when they start college, but you don't always find your people the first place you look. Here are five eager freshmen who joined the Quidditch Club to meet new people, ranked by how quickly they dipped out to find some regular kids to hang with.
5. Theresa, three weeks
You've got to hand it to Theresa for really trying to stick it out with the quidditch kids. She took a bunch of quizzes on Pottermore to tell everyone what her Hogwarts house was, and she was hanging out with the team pretty frequently. She even scored a couple points in the first game before reaching her breaking point when the group walked into the dining hall right when it's most packed at dinnertime humming the Harry Potter theme song as a post-game ritual. Horrified that her peers might see her singing with the team, she snuck out of the dining hall, deleted the QuidditchClub2k18 GroupMe off her phone, and texted her roommate to see if she was still planning on playing Edward Fortyhands with her 27-year-old boyfriend.
4. Ben, two weeks
Next up is Ben. Figuring he'd have a lot in common with the Quidditch Club kids since he spent grade school dressing up as Ron Weasley to go to all of the midnight premieres, he excitedly signed up for the team. But after only a couple of weeks, Ben started showing up later and later to practice so he could skip the really intense Harry Potter trivia they'd do while warming up. He finally hit his max when he was asked to jump up in the air on his broomstick to pose for the team photo. To avoid being forever immortalized as a Harry Potter obsessive in the yearbook, Ben made up a lie that he left something back in the locker room, where he started chatting with some intramural soccer players who he wouldn't mind being seen with in public.
3. Addison, five days
Addison never read any of the books, but he'd seen some of the movies and figured this would be a chill way to make friends. But once he was out on the field at the first practice, getting told "You're a wizard, Addison!" as encouragement from his psychology TA wearing a cloak, he realized there was no goddamn way these freaks were going to be his lifelong college friends and he walked right off the field and over to a Delta Chi recruiting table.
2. Mira, one day
Mira was already tapping out during the first meeting when everyone had to explain which type of wood their wand would be made of to introduce themselves, but it wasn't until the team played a tutorial game on the gym floor that she pretended to go to the bathroom and left for good. Watching people her age sprint around with brooms between their legs like it was a real sport was all the proof she needed that she'd be better off eating lunch alone for a couple weeks until she could make some normal friends who wryly mock people in Harry Potter clubs or LARPing meetups while they take edibles on the quad.
1. Raquel, 32 seconds
Coming in at No. 1 is Raquel, who, all things considered, barely gave it a chance. Raquel meandered over to the quidditch booth at the activities fair during orientation week, but she immediately discovered she wanted no part of what they had to offer after the "seeker" started going on and on about how their season banquet is an authentic Yule Ball, like that was the main selling point. She didn't even write down her email address or phone number on the sign-up sheet—all she wrote was "Raquel" and a squiggly line for her last name before deciding that if she was going to do a dorky thing in college, she might as well hang out with the nerds who study hard instead of the ones who spend all their time miming a wizard sport.

Exceptional Creativity In Science and Technology
Individuals, Institutions, and Innovations
- $27.99
- $27.99
Publisher Description
In the evolution of science and technology, laws governing exceptional creativity and innovation have yet to be discovered. The historian Thomas Kuhn, in his influential study The Structure of Scientific Revolutions, noted that the final stage in a scientific breakthrough such as Albert Einstein's theory of relativity—that is, the most crucial stage—was "inscrutable." The same is still true half a century later.
Yet, there has been considerable progress in understanding many of the stages and facets of exceptional creativity and innovation. In Exceptional Creativity in Science and Technology editor Andrew Robinson gathers together a diverse group of contributors to explore this progress. This new collection arises from a symposium with the same title held at the Institute for Advanced Study (IAS), in Princeton. Organized by the John Templeton Foundation, the symposium had as its chair the late distinguished doctor and geneticist Baruch S. Blumberg, while its IAS host was the well-known physicist Freeman J. Dyson—both of whom have contributed chapters to the book. In addition to scientists, engineers, and an inventor, the book's fifteen contributors include an economist, entrepreneurs, historians, and sociologists, all working at leading institutions, including Bell Laboratories, Microsoft Research, Oxford University, Princeton University, and Stanford University. Each contributor brings a unique perspective to the relationships between exceptional scientific creativity and innovation by individuals and institutions.
The diverse list of disciplines covered, the high-profile contributors (including two Nobel laureates), and their fascinating insights into this overarching question—how exactly do we make breakthroughs?—will make this collection of interest to anyone involved with the creative process in any context, but it will be especially appealing to readers in scientific and technological fields.

So, this is my second (and final) response to the #sewingtop5 prompt over on Crafting a Rainbow Even though I haven't sewn that many garments in 2016 I decided I wanted to take part in the hits and misses anyway, because it's a good exercise to reflect on the things I've made, particularly what works and what doesn't. Here then, are my top 5 sewing hits of 2016:
Top 5 Hits:
Ladybird skirt
I haven't blogged this one because it seemed to simple to warrant it. It's just a self drafted maxi skirt in a lovely viscose jersey, with a self-fabric waistband (no elastic). I never wear it out of the house as the fabric has pilled and just doesn't look right, but it's so wonderfully comfy I wear it pretty much every day as loungewear. Recently I even upgraded the waistband to one made out of a black lycra as it had much better recovery, and I took a couple of inches off the skirt at the same time to stop it dragging on the ground. It's now better than ever!
Grey surplice dress
This is a pretty recent make that hasn't made it onto the blog yet, but I wear it regularly. In fact I'm wearing it right now 🙂 It's a very simple design (part of the Craftsy Sewing with Knits class) and I made it in a lovely grey ponte knit. It's exactly the sort of dress I love: super comfy and easy to dress up or down.
Gabriel's sleepsuit
Along with the ladybird skirt this is probably the most worn of all my 2016 makes. Gabriel has worn it pretty much every single night since I made it back in February. It does get washed, honest. It just gets dried that same day and is back on him by nightfall. It's exactly what I wanted out of a sleepsuit but couldn't find in the shops anywhere. I suspect he won't fit it for much longer, though, so maybe I should get going on a larger version…
This was a surprise hit for me. Although I've always liked long cardies, I've always gone for ones with more waist shaping and front fastenings, and I've never been a big fan of the kimono sleeve. But I made it anyway because it looked like a quick and simple fix, and it turned out to be absolutely perfect for the summer. I'm now considering lots more cardies like this as the shape works really well over more closely-fitted clothing.
Osaka skirt
While I made a major mistake while sewing this one up, and even though the cotton I used for the lining rides up a bit when wearing tights, I still love it! The shape is contemporary, I luurve that big button, and chocolate brown needlecord was always going to be a hit. It's a supremely comfortable and easy-to-wear skirt.
Top 5 Misses:
Rainbow cord skirt
I haven't yet posted the full blog on this one, but I have very mixed feelings about it. It gets me loads of compliments whenever I wear it, but it's so short! Also, I only really have one top that goes with it, so it's almost a wardrobe orphan. I've decided to keep hold of it, but will probably only wear it occasionally to parties. This has taught me what length skirts I'm comfortable wearing without thick tights underneath!
Red mini skirt
This mini skirt is my perfect colour and I'm pleased with my sewing, but I don't think the pattern was well drafted and there are problems as a result. I still wear it occasionally, but not as much as I thought I would. This has taught me that good patterns are worth shelling out for!
Plantain tee
I love the shape of this tee but the colour really isn't me. I need deeper colours to bring out the best in my skin tone. This has taught me not to make impulsive fabric purchases just because they're on sale.
Knot your Average dress
While I really love the idea of this dress, I don't think it fits well around the bust, and it's now way too big for me anyway. This has taught me that even with knit patterns you need to make a toile to check fit!
Daisy's school dress (first version)
This was the original toile of a self-drafted summer school dress for Daisy. The collar just isn't right– it ripples from excess fabric. I largely sorted this on the final two versions, but when the zip broke on this one (probably because I'd used one from my stash that wasn't really long enough) I didn't deem it worth replacing. This has taught me that wearable toiles need appropriate fastenings!
So there we go. I've learned loads from what I've made this year, and hopefully I'll have a higher hit rate for 2017!

Awwww look at them. Hearts popping out of my eyes right now
Where have I seen this photo before? The low POV rocks and pulls us into this sleeping pair. Your tonal ranges from black to white and mid gray works to give the image clarity and sparkle. Personally, the white vignette robs the image but that is my own opinion, a minor moan. Sharp and clear and the tight crop keeps our eyes on the main stars of the show.
Chilled out?

Having some extra time during May *coughcough –rona*, I had decided to expand my skillset as a graphic designer and to practice animation and 3D.
I had worked with three: Blender, Cinema4D and Adobe After Effects. (Where the latter two I kept on using most of the time as I found their interface to be more intuitive for me to work with).
To not to drop off to quickly from my freshly made 'resolution' I had stuck myself to some tutorials (a few from YouTube, another few from a platform called 'Domestika') that helped me to get a grasp of the overall interface.
Having acknowledged of how many opportunities these two softwares bring, I just got more nerdy about it and tried to challenge myself to come up with more complicated visuals.

Natural hair care For Black women
The Black haircare business is grossly underestimated, and knowingly so. Market research company Mintel estimated the dimensions of the 2012 market at $684 million, with a projection of $761 million by 2017. But Mintel also wisely notes:
What's lacking because of these figures are basic market companies, weaves, extensions, wigs, independent beauty supply shops, suppliers, e-commerce, styling resources and devices. If all of those things had been to be taken under consideration, the $684 million in expenses could achieve an astonishing 1 / 2 trillion dollars.
Hair is an important facet of Ebony feminine tradition, so it's unsurprising we potentially spend that much cash on our locks. Good Hair, this year's documentary by comedian Chris Rock, shined a limelight on the company of black colored locks, particularly our using relaxers and weaves together with resources of the extensions countless women sew to their hair. Since Rock's reveal associated with the industry, much features and has nown't changed in the wide world of black colored tresses.
What exactly is Stayed exactly the same: tall using & WeavesWe're nonetheless investing big money on our locks. The marketplace remained relatively unscathed during the recession, while other companies faltered and since after that Black haircare has seen modest but regular growth. All item categories within the market have factored into the business's total growth, excluding relaxer sales, which, since 2008 have declined.
In accordance with Mintel, "Relaxers represent 21 percent associated with the black haircare marketplace with expenditures at $152 million, down 15 percent since 2011 as a result of the all-natural locks trend."
Interestingly sufficient, regardless of the growing move from relaxed locks to locks that is not chemically addressed (all-natural tresses), sales of weaves and wigs in addition skilled growth. Mintel reports "Nearly six from 10 Black customers put on a wig, weave or extensions, which enables them to modify up their particular look."
Wigs and weaves may nevertheless be an integral part of black colored hair tradition because tresses usefulness is somewhat intrinsic to the culture. Numerous black colored women change their particular hairstyles frequently, irrespective of the texture. Fake hair allows for even bigger share of hairstyle options as soon as made use of correctly, will give one's real locks some slack from manipulation and therefore mitigate breakage.
What exactly is Changed: Increased CompetitionWhile Ebony females consistently spend dramatically on their locks, albeit in moving item groups, more "mainstream" brands and retailers tend to be entering the marketplace. Having recognized the possibility associated with the marketplace, companies like Pantene Pro-V, Dove and Suave tend to be following it by often:
1. Including components Ebony ladies look for in haircare services and products to their very own existing items;
2. Releasing brand-new dedicated product lines for Black hair; or
3. By buying companies that already focus on black colored tresses.
Although these firms stand to boost competition in the business, specially in the rapidly growing natural tresses category, they truly are confronted with the reality that Blacks may get products from Black-owned companies. Huge business lacks the credibility of smaller brands which usually tend to be users of one's own services and products and have now built strong relationships due to their consumers by revealing their own hair stories.
Additionally, due to the fact market changes - increased competitors, shifting consumer preferences and a customer part which has galvanized on line - niche media networks like ours, Un'ruly Media system, have sprouted up, assisting big and little brands navigate and be noticed in the market, in addition to precisely interact with Black women.

Playa del Carmen
If Cancun is King and Cozumel is the Queen of the Sea (or maybe Isla Mujeres wants to be the Queen...?), then Playa del Carmen is the Princess of the Mayan Riviera.
Everyone knows about the King, with its behemoth all-inclusive hotels on beaches (better than ever after Wilma) boasting the softest, whitest and coolest sand in this hemisphere. And of course the Queen, the biggest island off the coast of the Mayan Riviera, is a divers' and snorklers' paradise.
But Playa (as it is known to all those who are too lazy to say "Playa del Carmen"), ahhhh, Playa! Playa is both charming and annoying, like all princesses. Beautiful, sweet, hip and sassy... a modern-day Mexican beach princess whose passport has stamps of many countries. She has a cell phone in one hand, a shopping bag in the other, and sand between her painted toes.
A sleepy baby of a town with unpaved streets less than ten years ago, Playa del Carmen is all grown up now and has been discovered by travelers from all over the world. Playa was a much more intimate place when we started going there, just five short years ago. We've heard that Playa del Carmen is the fastest growing city in the Americas. With its limitations on building heights and zoning laws (unusual in Mexico), it seems at least to be growing with some intelligence, but it is definitely more crowded and less relaxed than it used to be. Still, Playa del Carmen offers up peaceful beaches and clear Caribbean waters without the cost or crowds or complications of Cancun. Oh, you can spend as much money here as you would in Cancun. But you can also enjoy proximity to the water, world-class shopping and entertainment, and delicious dining for a lot less.
The common thread through the entire tourist area is Fifth Avenue, the main walking and shopping street that runs parallel to the beach. The south end of Fifth Avenue is the beginning of PlayaCar, a large small city of a development with resort-style hotels, condominiums and single-family houses for rent or for sale and at least one 18-hole golf course. It is also marked by the pier that accommodates the ferry to Cozumel and the cruise ship day-trippers. The north end of the tourist area used to be the Hotel Gran Porto Real, then it was the twin beach clubs of Mamitas and Playa Toucan. But the north end is where the most growth seems to be, so who can say where "the end" is today. Certainly nowhere currently in sight.
The biggest hotels in Playa del Carmen are tiny compared to Cancun, and there are many small boutique hotels here. There's a hotel to fit every taste and budget. Most hotels are less than three blocks from the beach, though not very many are actually ON the beach. Somehow, in Playa, that's okay. And for our money, a hotel on or near Fifth Avenue is the best bet. Everything... the beach, the restaurants, the shopping, the dive shops, the ATMs... it's all just a hop, skip and a jump from your bed and your shower.
And there is so much to choose from in just a few blocks! You can choose from a hip luxury hotel located in the thick of the nightly scene like Mosquito Blue or Deseo (we love Deseo's 2nd-story pool and bar), a mid-priced centrally-located hotel like Jungla Caribe (one of the oldest hotels in Playa with a great people-watching restaurant), upscale and luxurious condo rental like Villas Sacbe (hidden away on 1st Ave), one of our favorites La Tortuga with its cool lagoon-like pool in the center, a traditional beach resort hotel like Las Palapas, or the ultra-moderns: the new Mosquito Beach hotel that is, yes, on the beach or the decidedly hip Basico, which is not. There is also of course, the Blue Parrot, which has been slowly taking over various hotel spaces on the beach and has become a complex of hotel buildings, as well as a perennially popular (though loud for our taste) beach bar and restaurant (at the end of 12th St. on the beach). It's a nice place to visit for the beach proximity and for sitting on the swings at the bar, but there are better places to eat. The Gran Porto Real (the biggest hotel in central Playa) has recently expanded to be even grander and has a lot of rooms, all of which seem to have a view of the water. If you are on a budget, places like the Luna Blue Hotel (formerly the Hotel Zanzibar) or La Rana Cansada provide more basic rooms for usually less than $100 a night.
If you drive to Playa, expect to park your car on the street, which is easy to do except on the busiest weekends, and leave it there. Most of what Playa del Carmen has to offer is within walking distance. Walking up and down Fifth Avenue is a favorite pastime after a day at the beach. Some people seem to just skip the beach and spend all day shopping. Not our cup of tea, but there's plenty of shopping to satisfy even the most dedicated.
The restaurants in Playa are legion, and there are constantly new ones being opened. As residents of Yucatan, we come to Playa for great Italian food, great wine and great seafood. Italians have settled in Playa in great numbers, so the Italian food, from cappucinos to carpaccio, is fabulous. Five years ago, you couldn't find more than two brands of Cabernet, but wine lists have been growing and deepending in Playa, and now the choices are much better. If you are a wine lover, try the Glass Bar on the corner of 5th Avenue and 12th St. or Sur Pizzaria Grill, Wine Bar & Restaurant on Calle Corazon just two blocks north. Both restaurants have both outstanding food and some of the most comprehensive wine lists in the Yucatan (and we know about these things!). Most restaurants provide outdoor seating under the trees and stars, with views onto Fifth Avenue or the beach. Far fewer provide air conditioning... in fact, we cannot think of any. Dining in Playa del Carmen is very much an outdoor experience.
Did we mention shopping? A serious shopper can walk the length of Fifth Avenue in the cool of the evening, choosing from street vendors from Chiapas or designer clothes in the stores, Mexican pottery, silver jewelry, handcrafts, Mayan art and everything in between. Most stores in Playa are not chain stores and a dedicated shopper will find more variety here than in the malls of Cancun, often at better prices. But if you just spilled suntan oil on your favorite pair of Diesel jeans, you can probably find those on Fifth Avenue too.
Playa del Carmen also has a good assortment of internet cafes, so you never have to be out of touch with the folks back home, unless of course you want to be. Our favorite is at the Zoo Café, on Fifth Avenue half a block north of Calle Corazon. The computers are clustered around a central island in the middle of a restaurant, and you can have a cool drink, a cappuccino or a sandwich while you are checking your email. It's a little pricier than most, but the connections are fast and reliable. And the sandwiches (our favorites are the tomato and mozzarella on french bread) are good and cheap.
Our daughter and friends love the nightlife in Playa. Our favorite place is the quiet bar and restaurant on the beach at Fusions. But we're old. We can see (and hear!) various night clubs and bars in town providing music, drinks and sometimes excellent live music. Unlike in Cancun, you can walk from one to the next without having to get in a car or bus, and then walk back to your hotel when the night is over. Much safer for you and the other people on the highway.
For your first night in Playa, we suggest going to the corner of Fifth Avenue and 12th Street, which is the unofficial center of Fifth Avenue. You can have dinner at anyplace you can see and it will be good. Head down to the beach, and you'll find more places to drink and eat. You might be able to walk in and have a drink at the Blue Parrot beach bar, or they might be charging a cover that night (this is a new development). One way or another, get down to the beach. Then just keep walking south to the pier. If you are so inclined, have a drink at Señor Frogs (or not.... we don't) or walk to the end of the pier and look at the lights of Cozumel across the way (we do like to do that). Walk back on Fifth Avenue where you'll find more places to drink and mingle, too numerous to mention. Back at 12th St., if you turn left away from the beach, there are two nightclubs on that block, as well as a popular late-night pizza place and our favorite Banamex ATM. Or just continue north on Fifth Avenue for more shopping, dining and partying options. There are new places springing up all the time, we can't keep on top of them all and it's pointless to try. Have fun and discover your own special place.
If you haven't done too much partying the night before, you can have breakfast at one of our favorites, the Cafe Tropical right on Fifth Avenue or the peaceful garden restaurant called Cueva del Chango's off of Fifth Avenue in the North. Or just pick up a bagel and cappucino at Java Joe's on 10th Street just inland from 5th Avenue. After breakfast you'll find that Playa del Carmen is a great base from which to scuba dive, snorkel, or take day trips to cenotes, visit the water and wildlife parks of Xel-Ha and Xcaret, Tulum or the many other attractions of the Mayan Riviera. Playa is central to all of it, which probably accounts for some of its growing popularity.
Taxis can always be found at the corner of 5th Avenue and 14th Street. The bus station is located at the south end of Fifth Avenue one block from the pier (and across the street from a McDonalds and an ATM). Playa del Carmen is located 42 miles (68 km) south of Cancun and can be reached by bus from Merida or Cancun.
So now you know some of the details. But nothing we can write can communicate the gestalt of Playa del Carmen. You have to go there. Experience the heady combination of style and sand that is friendly, beautiful, there to serve your every desire and just a tad unnerving. That continually crashing sound you hear as you walk down Fifth Avenue? That's the sound of international investment dollars pouring into the terra firma of Playa del Carmen, guaranteed to grow into montones (mounds, mountains) of money. We prefer the quiet tranquilidad of Merida for a place to live, but Playa is always a fun place to visit.

La Playa del carmen, CanCun, Cozumel are nice places to visit. Merida is the place to live. Look at all those rich gringos and europeans sitting under those grass roof stands on the beach. Que bueno, no? I am Celosso. I hope that I may return to see Merida again.

I don't know how anyone could look at the cover for Spare and Found Parts by Sarah Maria Griffin and not fall in love with it instantaneously. Everything about this cover is just so wonderful and despite the fact that I have no idea what the book is about at this current moment, I desperately want to own this book. And see, this is the thing about judging books by their covers because sometimes the covers truly do deserve tons and tons of praise. This is one that I've genuinely fallen in love with to the point that I am genuinely immensely jealous that I did not write a book deserving of such absolutely glorious artwork. From the cogs and random workings of tools that are scattered around the background, to the two characters on the front, I find myself intrigued and excited to learn more about this book. This, my friends, is a cover done right. And before I go to read the synopsis, I want to take a guess as to what this book will be about.
I'm fairly certain, just from the parts portion of the title, that this book is going to fall into some sort of steampunk category, with characters where at least one of them, if not more, is a machine of some sort. I love the way the characters are placed and how they stand out against that darker background. There's something oddly pleasing about the man with a teapot for a head–not sure what that says about me, but there you go–and it's obviously very brilliant to see her heart looking like machinery. I'm reminded of an animated video I watched some time ago that I fell in love with just by looking at this cover.
The text placement is fairly perfect, also, and where this is something I usually have some small complaint about, I find that I don't have any issue whatsoever with the decision making here. If I were to change anything, the only one would be to have the characters themselves standing upright instead of sideways on the cover, but if truth be told I do understand why they made that artistic choice and it is nowhere near an immense bother, but rather more of a personal thought.
What do you think of this cover? Like it? Love it? Hate it? Are there things you would change or keep the same? Let me know in the comments!

Early life
Tuli has been a guard for very long. At first other guards mocked her for being a girl doing a man's job, but Tuli has proven herself worthy. She also proved not to be masculine at all, instead gaining reputation as a girl who could get any guy she wants.
Adventures with Khervos
One evening Tuli was enjoying a free evening at the Lavapool Inn when she met a Ba-Matoran detective named Khervos. The two flirted around and Tuli expected to have him as she had so many others before. However, the detective told Tuli about his sense of duty and justice and left Tuli to think about the priorities in life.
Next day Tuli found a suspicious Toa on an alley in Ta-Koro and questioned her. Due to the inability of the Toa to cooperate, Tuli signaled for help and at the same time gathered a large group of beings around who disagreed with the rash action of cornering the fearful Toa. After a loud outburst, she was forced to give in. The event left a mental scar on her.
Soon after the confrontation Tuli was called by Jaller to a private conference to discuss ger job performance. Due to her incompetitiveness and her radical ways, she received a harsh lecture from the Captain of the Guard. Losing her temper once again, Tuli quit her job and dashed out of Jaller's office, only to spend the next hours crying at home.
Tuli eventually decided to leave Ta-Koro due to the reputation she received with her outbursts and resigning from the guard. Tuli went to Onu-Koro where she was given a job by a Toa of Iron named Ferron. Tuli bought a home and laid herself a new life in the underground village, working for Ferron. Next day Khervos showed up at the forge, which Tuli did not know how to react to. On hearing that Khervos was going to the ruins of Xa-Koro alone to look for a secret, Tuli insisted on joining him because she was afraid something would happen to him. The duo left Onu-Koro.
Khervos and Tuli went to Xa-Koro, but were attacked by Tarakava. Kavala, a Toa of Earth living in the ruins, "saved" the duo, but acted strangely. To be safe, Khervos introduced himself with a false name as "Torrian". Tuli did the same, saying that her name was "Valhe". After discussing for a while, Kavala let the two Matoran leave, although he did send two Tarakava secretly to kill them. In the jungle, Tuli asked Khervos about his feelings, but Khervos stated he was not interested in a romantic relationship with her. Upset, Tuli left Khervos to walk home, only to be attacked by a Tarakava. She was helped out by Hile and some Toa, and Khervos also arrived at the scene.
Tuli and Khervos decided to return to Kavala and smite him, first hiring Skakdi Colx as some additional muscle against the Toa. Upon returning to Xa-Koro, however, Kavala pointed out that there was no way to prove he had been responsible for the Tarakava attack and that the two Matoran were about to commit a crime by attacking him. The Matoran and Colx left then, to leave Kavala alone in his lost city.
Tuli and Khervos went to Onu-Koro, where the two discussed their complicated relationship. Khervos admitted to having feelings towards Tuli and both agreed to give it a go.
Hunt for Surina
One day while spending time in Ta-Koro, Tuli and Khervos witnessed Surina flee to the Ta-Onu-tunnel. Becoming suspicious, they followed her secretly. Once in Onu-Koro, Tuli went to look for Ferron but could not find her boss. She returned to Khervos just in time to see him get knocked out by a Toa of Air named Nero. Enraged, Tuli threatened Nero, who attacked her. Using her experience as a guard, Tuli evaded the attack and prepared for battle, only to have Rhea interrupt the conflict. She let Tuli and Khervos go.
Tuli took the unconscious Khervos to the hospital and then left to avenge him by tracking down Rhea and Nero. Before she could find the Toa, she encountered Orderin, Viima and Tivanu who were looking for Surina as well. Despite Viima and Tuli's disagreements, they forged an alliance and went to the Wise Man's Archive. After hanging around there for a while, and fighting with Viima constantly, Tuli was happy to see Khervos and Ferron join them. The three left, after Ferron forged a deal with Rhea to hunt down a killer.
Hunt for Kuhrin
Back at Ferron's Forge, Ferron told Tuli and Khervos that a dear friend of his, Zuriana, had been killed by a murderer and he was going after him with Rhea. Tuli wanted to join him, but Ferron asked her not to, in fear that he would lose her as well. Khervos and Tuli thus stood behind.
However, before he left, Ferron gave Tuli a letter she was to give to Khervos. The letter informed both Khervos and Tuli of a Po-Matoran named Noka involved in Kuhrin somehow. Khervos and Tuli left for Po-Koro to find Noka and question her. The pair stopped at an inn where Tuli stayed in their room while Khervos went to the bar to ask about Noka. After a while of waiting, Tuli went to the bar herself only to find Khervos gone. Later Khervos returned with Noka and the three Matoran went to look for Ferron.
Eventually they found Ferron, who was introduced to Noka. Noka wanted to prove that there was still good in Kuhrin somewhere, and after hearing Kuhrin's backstory for the first time and realizing how many key elements of it figured in his own past, Ferron agreed to give Kuhrin a chance.
Ferron, Khervos, Tuli and Noka banded together and headed out into the drifts, where Noka went ahead to try and talk to Kuhrin, trying to rekindle what they had before he was panicked by Ferron's presence and a fight broke out. While Ferron battled Kuhrin, the Matoran battled his Parakuka-enhanced brother Desuka. The battle ended with Tuli killing Desuka and Ferron defeating Kuhrin but ultimately choosing not to kill him. Ferron offered Kuhrin the choice to try and mend his ways, meeting him halfway through their shared history of hardship and loss. Ferron, Tuli and Khervos took the way home, while Kuhrin and Noka retreated to a secluded, quiet existence together somewhere in Le-Wahi.
Back in Onu-Koro, Ferron sacrificed his Toa Power to become a Turaga. Tuli returned to her work at the forge, thinking about Ferron's decision and the quest for Kuhrin.
Journey with Vesun
One day Tuli was helping Ferron at his forge when Khervos arrived, telling that Kavala had returned and that a Toa named Vesun needed help with finding a telepath to cure his spreading amnesia. Tuli decided to join Khervos to help him, to which Ferron agreed.
The group tried to go to Ko-Koro, but the tunnel there had collapsed and members of The Outsiders at the Cable Car warne them of a battle going on in the village. They decided to try Le-Koro, but the village had been closed off due to an Entropy Beetle ifestation. They traveled to Ga-Koro, where they found several allies in The Great Takea.
Hearing that a Toa named Vakua might be able to help Vesun, the group set out to find him. However, on the way, Skorm left and sought out the Toa Kalta, Vakua being part of that group, and attacked them, beginning a large scale battle. During the battle, Tuli saved Mura, who was drowning.
Personality and Traits
Tuli used to be very loyal to Ta-Koro. She enjoys making new friends, but is not always easy to get along with. She has a hot temperament like most Ta-Matoran. She has a lot of faith in her village and is willing to take extreme measures to protect security there. Tuli easily becomes playful with men, however, and loves flirting. She was known among the guard as having the ability to get any man she wanted. Tuli is very beautiful and attractive, making her good at manipulating men. Being in a relationship with Khervos, however, Tuli no longer goes after men.
In addition to being a good lover, Tuli has received full Ta-Koro military training and is a skilled combatant. Her temperament sometimes makes her make hasty decisions while fighting, but she has incredible tactical skills. Due to being a Ta-Matoran, Tuli has natural resistance to heat, but is weaker in cold conditions. Discipline taught to her in the guard makes her weakness against cold less noticeable, however.
Thanks to her experiences at working in Ferron's Forge, Tuli has become fairly knowledgeable about different types of metal and smithing in general. She has developed good crafting skills.
- Khervos: Tuli covered her feelings for Khervos a long time until finally admitting love towards him. She is extremely loyal to the Ba-Matoran, but sometimes acts a bit possessive about him.
- Ferron: Friendly. Ferron offered Tuli a job when she went to Onu-Koro. Tuli tends to be calmer with Ferron than others.
- Viima: The two dislike each other, but are willing to tolerate the other's presence.
- Tivanu: Tuli doesn't like Tivanu, but considers him an ally in hard circumstances.
- Orderin: An ally through Tivanu and Viima.
- Hile: Tuli gets easily irritated by Hile's enthusiastic character, but they are on the same side.
- Noka: Allies after their experiences together.
- Kirgan: Acquaintances through Khervos.
- Vesun: Formal allies through Khervos.
- Xerrand: Met in Le-Koro, but barely know one another.
- Karna: Formal allies, met in The Great Takea.
- Mirra: Formal allies, met in The Great Takea.
- Wisp: Formal allies, met in The Great Takea.
- Mura: Tuli saved him from drowning.
- Jaller: The two don't like each other, due to Tuli's hot temperament and Jaller criticizing her job performance.
- Kavala: Enemies, due to Kavala's attempt to kill her with a Tarakava servant.
- Rhea: Tuli hates her for her shady behavior and Nero.
- Nero: Enemies due to Nero injuring Khervos.
- Surina: Tuli has heard a lot about Surina from Khervos and therefore considers her an enemy.
- Desuka: Tuli was the one who killed him.
- Skorm: Skorm caused lots of destruction in Ga-Koro, which Tuli is strongly against.
— Tuli losing her temper at the Gukko Force headquarters
"Mata Nui help me, why did I have to fall for someone with more temper than a Kane-Ra?"
— Khervos' thoughts
"The Ta-Matoran looked like an awkward smaller-scale version of Rhea; evidently ex-military, very attractive by her species' standards, and with a similar fire to her eyes, I would have to watch out for that one."
— Mar's thoughts on Tuli
"Talking with Tuli was in a lot of ways like holding a bomb close to your chest, given how liable she was to "blow up" at the slightest provocation."
— Narrator describing Tuli's temper
- Tuli's personality has many traits borrowed from an earlier incarnation of Kaunis
- While in the guard, Tuli was part of Regiment 14.
