Hofstra Black History Month Concert; Sunday, February 8, 5 p.m., John Cranford Adams Playhouse
Hofstra University presents "African Diaspora: Music and Dance in the Old and New Worlds," a musical journey of music and dance, on Sunday, February 8, 2015, at 5 p.m. at the John Cranford Adams Playhouse.
The audience will experience West African drumming and dancing; South African choral music; concert music by African, Latin American and African-American composers; and Cubop (Cuban bebop) and Calypso dances for Big Band choreographed by Mickey Davidson. Highlights include performances by Hofstra student musicians and dancers; ensembles from Hempstead and Uniondale High Schools; and invited guest artists, including the internationally acclaimed Imani Winds, a woodwind quintet dedicated to bridging European, American, African and Latin American musical traditions.
Three Hofstra music department ensembles — the Chamber Singers, the Symphony Orchestra and the Jazz Band — will join Hofstra student dancers, composers and featured student performers to anchor this year's concert. Hofstra student actor, Maya Carter, will guide the audience through a tour of music and culture as it spread from Africa and blended with Spanish and American popular traditions to form new styles.
The first half of the concert samples the great choral and drumming traditions of south and west Africa, and African classical songs performed by Liberian-American soprano, Dawn Padmore. The focus of the second half shifts to Latin America and features a variety of ensembles, large and small, old and new. William Grant Still's Danzas de Panama for orchestra segues to works for smaller groups, including a new work based on a traditional Afro-Columbian folk dance by Hofstra student composer Andres Maldonado.
Tickets are $12 general admission, $10 senior citizen (over 65) or matriculated non-Hofstra student with ID. Members of the Hofstra community receive two free tickets upon presentation of a current HofstraCard. For tickets and more information, including tickets for schools, call the Hofstra Box Office at (516) 463-6644, Monday through Friday, 11 a.m.-3:45 p.m.
This concert is sponsored by the Hofstra Cultural Center and the Hofstra Music Department, and funded in part by the D'Addario Community Music Appreciation Initiative, a multi-faceted program designed to increase knowledge and appreciation for all types of music among a broad range of young people. The initiative addresses several needs at Hofstra and in the local community, including to promote music appreciation and to allow Hofstra's student music ensembles to visit and perform in local schools and inspire children.

6 Great Restaurant Picks for DineLA
Where to DineLA?
I recently attended a launch party for DineLA's Restaurant Week featuring some tasty bites from BLD, littlefork, Paichẽ and SBE's Cleo and Mercado di Vetro. The event was held at The Redbury's beautiful outside terrace and it was the perfect backdrop as fellow blogger pals and I mingled and sampled a bites from each participating restaurant.
See below for the slide show recap.
I often think of DineLA as an opportunity for non-foodies, to get out of their usual eating habits and explore their neighborhoods or perhaps venture out a little and try something unexpected. I personally use Restaurant Week as a vehicle to wrangle old friends and fellow food aficionados I haven't seen in a while to get together and try some new dishes with me.
The chef's specials and discounted menus are what initially get me in the door, and of course I end up ordering way too much. Lunches are always a great bet if you really want a steal. There are a few restaurants this week on my "To Try" list and hopefully I can check them all off this time around (also, fingers crossed, I wont split my pants!).
Here's a short list of who's on my radar for Restaurant Week.
Cleo: A Mediterranean date spot located in the heart of Hollywood, this is one of those places that I need to frequent more as it is so close to where I live! I'm looking forward to trying their chicken tagine and sticky toffee pudding. Dinner: $35.00
RivaBella: This place has been getting a lot of attention lately and not just for the amazing Italian food, but for it's beautiful ambiance and decor. Located on the Sunset Strip, in the former Hamburger Hamlet space, Jonathan Gold raves how the menu is the "greatest hits" of Italian food, namely the swordfish carpaccio, eggplant parmigiana and spinach pappardelle with lamb ragu. Lunch $25.00
K-Zo: A French-Japanese sushi spot in Culver City, chef and owner Keizo has got the right stuff. I've been meaning to try out this neighborhood spot for a while now. They are offering $25.00 lunch and $45.00 dinner specials during restaurant week.
littlefork: Another one that's been on my radar, chef Jason Travi cooks up Mediterranean-style, tapas-like bites. Hailing from New England, you better believe, the man knows his seafood. $35.00 dinner specials.
FarmShop: Located in the Country Mart, this Brentwood sweet spot serves up everything from fried chicken to French toast with berries, creme fraiche, pistachios, and bacon. It's a great place for brunch with friends on a lazy Sunday. Having worked formerly for Thomas Keller, chef Jeffrey Cerciello knows how to highlight local produce. This place is known for being a bit pricey, that's what makes the DineLA deal worthwhile. Dinner $45.00
Mo-Chica: Chef Ricardo Zarate cooks up traditional Peruvian comfort food. Looking forward to trying the Arroz con Mariscos and yes, the Willy Wonka Cake. Lunch: $25.00 – Dinner: $35.00
Check out the rest of the participating restaurants and tell me who's on your list…

22 Jul Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Rumours
The next Samsung Galaxy Note is due to be officially released any day soon, and we are here with the latest round up of rumours and news about the device to hopefully set the record straight
Samsung Galaxy Note 10 The Basics
It looks like the Samsung Galaxy Note 10 will be officially announced at a Samsung Event that is being held on the 7th of August. With a release date likely to be two to three weeks following that. Though it is still not actually confirmed that the device will be called the Galaxy Note 10.
You may or may not remember but back in 2012 Samsung released a device called the Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 which coincided with the release of Android 4.0. So, it may be that Samsung want to avoid any naming confusion and go with something different. That being said, Samsung are pretty straight forward when it comes to naming their phones. So, we will see.
Samsung Galaxy Note 10 The Design
One of the biggest criticisms of the Note 9 was that it looked too much like the Note 8. Therefore, Samsung have aggressively redesigned the Note 10, and this included doing away with the notch design for the front camera, instead preferring the punch hole camera layout, along with fingerprint scanners embedded in the screen, instead of a separate scanner.
This leaves the front pretty much all display, and the rear only sporting the camera bump, which will have three lens' on this model. It is fair to say that Samsung have definitely innovated on the recent designs for the S10 and S10 Plus and so it is likely that these features will be lifted to the Note 10 and recent renders of the phone that have been doing the rounds seem to re-enforce this.
Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Audio
One thing that seems confirmed is the absence of the headphone jack. Samsung seems to be going the route of Bluetooth or nothing, which is why the Note 10 will also not have the socket. Though the recent trend is still for Bluetooth headphones, there are still a number of people who prefer the option of having wired headphones, and they won't be able to with this phone.
Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Other Features
There was some talk as to whether Samsung will forgo physical buttons on the phone, and there was some indication that we might just get capacitive touch buttons instead of physical ones, though this seems to have been reversed at the last minute. It remains to be seen whether the 'Bixby' button will remain as Samsung keep trying to aggressively push their voice assistant in the face of Google and Amazon's offerings. It is also rumoured that there may be a variety of screen sizes available for the Note 10.
Certainly, the main offering will have a massive 6.7inch screen, which is equal to the S10 Max. But we may see a smaller version developed alongside it. This remains to be seen, however. What is certain is that there will be a 5G incarnation of the phone, though whether this is the default one at launch we are still waiting to see.

You can't miss Levant Eatery. Look for the bright green sign above the doorway and listen for laughter trickling out of the bustling open kitchen.
The family-owned cafe came to life through Husam Al-Sweedy, who noticed the vacant shop while studying at UniSA's City West campus. His daydreams turned to reality when he deferred his degree and his family jumped on board to create Levant Eatery. Sister Zainab Al-Sweedy even moved back from a two-year stint in Dubai to pitch in.
"We'd look at the plans, have a million arguments [about layout and décor] and then agree on something," Al-Sweedy says.
The eatery is named after an old French term for a group of eastern Mediterranean countries. The Al-Sweedy family originates from Iraq and the recipes are long-kept family secrets. "Zena Al-Sweedy, our sister-in-law bakes all the bread and mum [Faten] works in the kitchen."
Specialities are pocket breads and grain salads packed with a choice of Faten's falafel or grilled meats, topped with hummus, smoky eggplant puree or muhammara (roast capsicum sauce).
The crew work like a well-oiled machine. The wait time for meals is five to six minutes. "We've had line-ups out the door every day," Al-Sweedy says. It's a promising sign in an area soon to be engulfed by hospital workers, busy students and researchers.
Next door, on Liverpool Street, the Al-Sweedys are also planning a cold-pressed juice bar, perfect for washing down a falafel quinoa bowl.

The two disciples began walking in despair and found themselves face to face with the risen Lord. It is a story that moves from hopelessness to hope and one that speaks into this Easter Season as we, with those disciples, celebrate resurrection hope and, reminds us that 'he is near us…with us evermore'. A presence needed more than ever as we find ourselves in the midst of a global pandemic.
Luke 24:13-35

St Boniface's
Somme – July 2016
We had a successful morning on the Hoe with seven students from our Heroes group to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the Somme.
The students were all invited to lay flowers alongside other students from across the city.
The service was very poignant and the students did us all proud.
Callum Coot, Year 11, was interviewed by Spotlight and The Herald.
A year ten student Callum Coot represented MKC Heroes and the college as a standard bearer at the recent DDAY ceremony at the Tamar Bridge. Callum was joined by two students from St.Pauls.
A year seven student Morgan Mclean has been commended for his efforts towards the Armed Forces Day badge competition and was presented his certificate by his tutor and MKC coordinator for the college.
Two students were lucky enough to have been invited to HMS Drake for lunch in the senior rates mess and to then have a guided tour of HMS Ocean .
Both students thoroughly enjoyed their afternoon, in particular the tour of the flight deck.
In January a small group of students were invited to attend a morning held by the Royal Signals looking at their role within the army and looking closely at their job role.
Students were given the opportunity to experiment with equipment and had to establish a working phone line.There was also time for a question and answer session.
We were fortunate to have a whole mornings visit from the Cold stream guards in February . The Guards provided the students with team building activities and the opportunity to shoot a replica hand pistol containing BB pellets. The shooting was a huge success and some students did manage to hit the target ( it was very small).
In October three students were fortunate enough to attend the HMS Heroes leadership training, delivered by Heather and Jono over three days.
The training provided students with the key skills to be an effective leader and to examine what makes a good leader,it also supported individual self and development of skills in learning, confidence and will power.
Students were also given time to examine what life as a service child really means to them.
At the end of day three each student was presented with a certificate and a Help For Heroes tshirt.
To recognise Armed Forces Week students were invited to have Breakfast before school, this was very popular! So much so that we will be holding a breakfast once a month, with the first one in September . An excellent way for the group to welcome the new Heroes starting.
On Thursday of that week we were fortunate enough to attend RM Bickleigh. Sixteen students and two members of staff spent the afternoon visiting the stables, completing a mini commando challenge and having an introduction into the life of a royal marine.
The highlight for many was looking at weapons and using camo paint.
We are now looking forward to the new term and planning our next activities.
The brand new HMS Heroes group (Which has just recently been formed two weeks ago at our College). Have already had their 2nd trip together, which was on Tuesday 1st of October 2013. We were hosted on board HMS Sutherland, by Petty Officer Paul Underdown and we all had a brilliant time (more photo's to follow). The tour included, an in depth guide of the workings of a Warship. Which included the flight the deck, hanger (which can hold a Merlin helicopter). This was followed by seeing the Ship Control Centre, Operations Room & Bridge. The pupils also saw where the crew slept as well. I asked the pupils who visited the Warship, to write about their experiences, here's one example; On Tuesday 2nd of October we were invited to go onto H.M.S Sutherland it was amazing I loved it we got to look at all the radar the sonar we got to go in the mess and have chocolate . our tour guide pants was amazing he was really clear in all of his explanations of what goes on and what machine does what and it was really fun going up and down all of the ladders, we got to look at all sorts of guns and overall I had an amazing time Thank you to Miss Beales and Mr McKenna for giving us this amazing opportunity

The city of Syracuse is packed with beautiful baroque churches and stunning Greek monuments, still standing in defiance of the centuries. But the building which dominates the city's skyline was built just seventeen years ago. Say hello to the Santuario della Madonna delle Lácrime. Sigh. They just don't build them like they used to.
Once upon a time, Syracuse was the most mightiest city-state in the world. Ruled by famous tyrants like Dionysius the Elder, and home to Archimedes, one of history's greatest thinkers, the power of Syracuse extended far beyond the Greek Empire, to which it belonged. The city's influence waned only during the Arab occupation of Sicily, when the capital was moved to Palermo.
Whether winding through the narrow alleys of Il Capo, or pushing past tourists along the claustrophobic Vittorio Emmanuele, the massive Cattedrale di Palermo appears suddenly and always comes as a shock.
The uneven, twisting alleyways which dominate the ancient center of Palermo are charming, but a navigational nightmare. Funny, then, that the dead center of the historic district is an impeccably laid-out intersection, and one of Europe's earliest examples of urban planning.

It's not too often you can tell someone you've been to the inside of a lava tube.
A lava what?
Yes, a lava tube. But if you plan a hike to the Ape Caves in Washington State, that's exactly what you're going to get.
If you are looking for a completely different hiking experience – one that combines ancient volcanic evidence and a challenging hike – then the Ape Caves should be on your short list.
This hike is described as both unique and challenging. Not for the faint of heart, it's a mix of geological wonder and a physical test of strength.
What Exactly Are the Ape Caves?
This place isn't just a cave, this is actually a geological site that's classified as a lava tube. This means that it's a natural tunnel where molten lava actually used to flow.
Thankfully the molten lava is no longer a threat. Instead, it has left behind this amazing natural site that makes for a great hiking adventure.
Technically in the Gifford Pinchot National Forest, the Ape Caves are located South of Mount St. Helens in Washington State.
The lava tube itself is about 13,000 feet long. The hike within the Ape Caves is over two miles in length, 2.6 miles round trip to be exact. While the elevation gain is only around 400 feet, don't let that fool you.
And this isn't just any lava tube either. Ape Cave is the third longest lava tube in North America and the longest in the Continental United States.
It's hard to believe this tube wasn't even discovered until 1951. Since it's discovering, the trails have been hiked by tens of thousands of visitors each year. It's a popular destination and with good reason – it's not something you find every day in nature.
The caves present challenges for hikers that can make it somewhat difficult but definitely worth the effort.
Hiking the Ape Caves
Here's where it gets even more interesting (as if the word "lava tube" didn't have you hooked already).
There are actually two trails for you to choose from when hiking the Ape Cave.
The first trail is referred to as the Out and Back. As the name implies, you will hike down into the Lower Cave and then exit back out the way you came.
It's also referred to as the Lower Cave. This is considered the easier hike of the two. If you are a beginner hiker or unsure of your expertise level, then it's advised you try this hike first. It's about a 2-mile hike, and the elevation gain is around 180 feet.
If you go this route, make sure you look for the famous "meatball" within the Lower Cave. It's a large block of lava that has cooled and fallen into the ceiling of the lava tube. It's wedged into a very narrow spot, making it look like it's floating on the surface.
The second trail is known as the Loop, or the Upper Cave hike. This is an additional 2.7 miles of hiking and is considered the more challenging hike of the two. The elevation gain is 640 feet, thus making it a little tougher.
The Upper Cave hike is uphill for the first mile. Further into the hike, there is an 8-foot wall that needs to be climbed. If you are hesitant to climb this wall, then you have to turn around. Once you make it up this wall, it is a short walk to the ladder that will exit you from the lava tube and back onto the path.
If you are really brave, you can explore additional tunnels within the Upper Cave. You can try your hand at shimmying in and out of these tight quarters.
The Caves are open year-round which allows you to either hike or snowshoe the trail.
It definitely takes time for the hiking and discovering all the intricacies of the caves. You should plan on making a day of it and devoting several hours to the exploration.
How to Get to the Ape Caves
As mentioned previously, the Ape Caves are located South of Mount St. Helens, in the state of Washington. It takes about an hour to reach the caves if you're coming from the visitor's center of Mount St. Helens.
First, you will take I – 5 to Exit 21, SR503. This is the Woodland/Cougar Exit. You'll turn right onto Highway 503S. You then drive 23.4 miles to the junction of Lewis River Road and SR503. Continue straight toward Cougar.
You will drive an additional 12 miles, through Cougar and over the Lewis River Levee. Eventually, the road will change names to FR90. Turn left onto FR 83. Drive 1.8 miles and turn left onto FR 8303, following signs for Ape Cave. Drive one mile and then turn right for the Ape Caves. You will see the upper parking area, or you can park at the overflow parking area if that one is full.
Oh, and you will need the NW Forest Pass to be able to park in the parking lot. The pass usually costs $5 a day or $30 for the season.
If you are exploring the caves during the winter time, then you have to park further out at the Trail of Two Forests Trailhead. It's an additional 0.7 miles away from Ape Cave. You also have to make sure you're in possession of the Sno-Park Permit.
Preparing for a Hike at Ape Caves
Here is a list of items you need to make sure you have the most enjoyable experience possible.
1. Warm Clothes
So when it comes to hiking in an ancient lava tube, it's a good news/bad news scenario. The good news is, no matter the weather, it's pretty much the same temperature all year round.
The bad news is, that temperature is usually between 40 and 50 degrees.
While in the hot summer months, the lower temperature may not sound too terrible, it only poses an issue if you haven't packed correctly. No matter what time of year it is, you definitely need to dress for cooler temperatures. Dressing in layers is the smart way to go.
2. Hiking Boots
You might have assumed this, but in this case, proper hiking boots are a must. The caves are extremely hard underfoot. It's not just the hardness either, parts of the caves are actually sharp and jagged too.
3. Lighting
As you can imagine, when the lava tube formed over 2000 years ago, there wasn't much in the way of electricity. That hasn't changed after all these years and lighting has not been installed.
Not only do you need to bring a flashlight for your hike, it's advised that you bring a backup light as well. These caves are so, so dark.
If you have forgotten your lighting, you can usually rent a lantern at the Ape Cave Headquarters for $5.
4. Gloves
If you are planning on venturing out to the Upper Caves, then gloves are a must. The jagged and potentially loose rocks make gloves a necessity.
5. Leave Your Pets and Food at Home
Due to the nature of this hike, you will have to leave your four-legged friends at home.
Also, no food or alcohol is allowed. And since there aren't any restrooms within the caves, this is definitely for the best. All these limitations are for your safety.
Plan Your Visit to Washington's Finest Hiking Spots – the Ape Caves Await

The question of group-level human variation has been a hot one. Some research argues for continental, race-like groupings in which there is more variation between groups than within them (Jorde, et al., 2000) and that self-identified race is a reliable predictor for one's genetic heritage Tang, et al,, 2005). Other research suggests while there is group-level genetic variation, it exists within a gradation of populations and not a small number of historically isolate draces (Serre & Paabo, 2004). While it is increasingly recognized that early scientific research, such as Lewtonin 1970, which denied any meaningful group-level variation was overly simplistic (Edwards, 2003). Though studies which look at only a few phenotypes continue to find little intergroup variation (Relethford, 2002), broad studies find definite intergroup variation (Rosenberg, 2005) and intragroup similarity (Rosenberg, et al., 2006) Several portions of Bjorklund & Pellegrini's (2002) third chapter, History and Controversy, also hint at ways that human groups could be more different from each other than once thought.
One way that biological group level variation can increase is if experience can somehow be paseed from parent to child. For instance, even if two populations are genetically very similar, if they face different environments, and the effects of the environment can be passed down, you could have biologically-based differences in only one generation. This was once considered anathema to modern biology: Bjorklund & Pellegrini write that "Inheritance, and thus genetic variation, is found only within the germ line and is not influenced by experience†(47). However, i tis now recognized that "physical†and "behavioral†changes can be passed on (53). An early example of this was Jean Piaget's experiment with epigenetic snails (54). In contemporary jargon, we should say that "females pass on cytoplasm (i.e., the cell body) to their offspring [and so environmental] changes that induce chemical changes in the cytoplasm can thus be inherited through the motehr but not through the father†(56). On the same page, the authors note that while this cytoplasm is not itself genetic, "Cytoplasmic inheritance should not be thought of as nongenetic [because] it necessarily expressed its effect on the genes.â€
It's relatively easy to imagine how this could work. Imagine two otherwise similar populations which are divided from each other. This division forces both to become relatively self-contained breeding populations and leads to differences in diet, with one population eating nutritious food and the other near starvation. After just a few generations, cytoplasmic variants adept to surviving and reproducing in starvation-conditions could become very widespread in the one population, while an opposite set of cytoplasmic variants become widespread in the other population. Frighteningly, this may be happening in Korea. The height difference between North and South Koreans is already four inches (Ser & Team, 2006). If some of this difference is epigenetically, cytoplasmically inherited, this could create a de-facto "racial†divide among Koreans that might last centuries, even after a return to environmental equality.
Non-coding DNA is another thing that may have led to a discounting of human intergroup genetic diversity. Bjorklund & Pellegrini describe this DNA as "dormant†and "underused†(57). However, the 97% of our genome that is intergenetic "can have dramatic effects on the way that nearby genes are activated to make proteins†(Pinker, 2002, 78). One such piece of junk DNA, Dopamine Receptor D4 7 Repeat – has been tied to ADD and novely seeking (Laucht, Becker, & Schmidt, 2006). As earlier studies of human differences focused on coding DNA, such as protein loci and blood group loci (Latter, 1980), these studies have essentially just ignored 97% of human genetic difference. This is especially sad as junk DNA can be inserted into RNA, thus becoming functional (Lev-Maor, Sorek, Shomron, & Ast, 2003).
Yet the idea of intergroup genetic diversity among homo sapiens causes controversy. Indeed, the idea that genes matter in the human species causes controversy Richard Lewtonin, whose work denying the existence of races was cited earlier, famous accused E.O. Wilson of mirroring "the ideologies of the bourgeois revolutions of the eighteenth century†(Ridley, 2003, 243). How much more disturbing it might be if not only do children already know about "language… objects… and social relations†(Bjoklund & Pellegrini, 2002, 61), but that groups of children vary in their knowledge of these objects. For instance, if one group has a higher general intelligence ability while another group as a higher rythmatic intelligence (Lynn, 2006). Does this imply that one genetic grouping is more valuable than another?
The answer, of course, is no. As Steven Pinker (2002, 145) wrote "The case against bigotry is not a factual claim that humans are biologically indistinguishable. It is a moral stance…†We are all equally human. We are all equally valuable. No evidence, ever, could change that.

A man who entered a restricted area at Ohio's Cedar Point amusement park to look for a lost cellphone has been struck by a roller coaster and killed.
Police say James A. Young had just finished riding the Raptor on Thursday and jumped over a fence to retrieve something he dropped during the 57 mph ride. The Erie County coroner says it was his cellphone.
Sandusky police say Young was struck by the ride or someone on it. No one else was hurt.
The amusement park sits along Lake Erie in Sandusky and has billed itself as the best in the world.
The park confirms the death in a statement saying "a guest entered a restricted, fenced area of Raptor and was struck by the ride." It says its "thoughts and prayers go out to the family."

Open Championship
1870: Prestwick
A third consecutive victory for Young Tom by the massive margin of 12 shots. He started his defence of the title by holing his third shot, a full iron, to the 578 yard first and went on to complete the first round of 12 holes in a record breaking 47 strokes. Two more rounds, each of 51, and Young Tom did what his father had just failed to do in 1863 and won the championship belt outright.
A rumour had spread around St Andrews on the Saturday after the championship took place that Young Tom was to be arriving on the train which reached St Andrews about 10 pm (yes, the town had a station then). The result was that 'a great multitude' met him from the train and carried him shoulder-high to Mr Leslie's Golf Hotel where many toasts were drunk. Thanking his friends Tom junior told them he had made up his mind three years ago to become proprietor of the belt. So, there you go, the secret of success: just make up your mind.

Today, there are many establishments dedicated to the hospitality industry that have pets inside the premises. Certainly, it is becoming to be more popular in European countries like Spain or the United Kingdom, although the most famous pet cafes are in Tokyo.
The appearance of this type of cafes is related to the strict code of conduct that Japan demands from its citizens. Apartment owners do not allow their tenants to have pets for a proper life.
For this reason, they decided to create pet establishments that offer the possibility of interacting with animals while customers relax with a drink or snack.
Tokyo's Animal Cafes
Next, we recommend you some good cafes:
- Mame Shiba: this cafe is famous for its dogs of breed Shiba Inu. The entrance fee is 880 yen which includes being able to be with the dogs for 30 minutes and a drink.
- Tokyo Snake Center: this cafe allows you to share a table with a snake. The price is 1000 yen per person and includes drinks, snacks and choose one of the snakes.
- Penguin Bar Ikebukuro: inside this local you can enjoy your drink watching little penguins.
- Cat cafe Nekorobi: this place is one of the best cafes for cat lovers. The entrance costs 1300 yen and includes a drink.
- Sra. Bunny: this cafe has a dozen bunnies and some hedgehogs. The entrance is about 1000 yen for 30 minutes.
Owl Cafe & Bar Owl Village: in this cafe you can play, watch and relax with owls.
Finally, there are a lot of cafes with animals in Tokyo, but this business model is expanding around the world. In this article, we have named you the most famous pet cafes in Tokyo, but who says that in a few months they will not be those from another country.
We recommend you to travel to Japan and discover these peculiar establishments very different from the rest of cultures. In case you are planning your trip, you will need to apply for japanese visa to enter the country from 2020.

Well, it's been a week since my surgery. A surgery I didn't know was actually going to happen up till 9pm the night before. My surgeon (very preggo surgeon) was going to her doctor that afternoon and there was a strong chance she was going to have to be put on bed rest that day. Everything worked out though and her baby is doing great. My own personal little angel watching out for me during surgery. How blessed am I? He has a Christmas due date…stay put little man stay put.
I am healing as I should be. My second surgery wasn't as painful and as ugly looking as the first. Thank goodness. No drain and feeding tubes were needed, which is a blessing in itself. I was really nervous about more nerve damage. I do have parathyroid gland damage and having to take meds to keep my nervous system functioning, but the doctors are hoping that these little guys will come back from vacation in the next few months. If not, we deal with it, live with it, and move on. I started my low iodine diet this week to prepare for radiation (zucs and tomatoes anyone?). When radiation will be is uncertain. I am at the mercy of my TSH hormones. Blood work on Tuesday to find out where I am, we want to be above 30.
I am still at my parent's vacation home and missing my family dearly. Hubby is a rock star though. He and the kids are doing great. I'm thinking they are not missing me very much. He is doing a fall clean out of the house and holding down the fort better than I could. Dance classes, homework (A test scores), lunches, dinners, church choir, brownies, bedtime, sniffles, and even a wardrobe debate with our 8 year old daughter over black boots. I do get to talk to my eldest each night, which is the highlight of my day. My son, he just can't get the whole put the phone to your ear and talk thing yet, but I can hear him in the background and it melts my heart.
I'll be home as soon as I can and can't wait for those bear hugs and kisses.

The end of the year has come, so it's time for a review, once again in the form of awards. I don't have consistent categories in mind for these. I just make up the awards so I can talk one last time about some of my favorite reading from the past year.
Out of the Running for Any Category Because He's in the exlibrismagnis Hall of Fame
Charles Dickens. 'Nuff said.
Best New Read: History
Durant on the Florentine Renaissance. After living an hour from Florence for four-and-a-half months, I came home to find that my Durant for the year covered the Renaissance there. I'd call it the perfect coincidence except that I wish I had read it just before we went, if only so I could have known that I needed to go just one block from where I stood several times to a church with some masterpieces by del Sarto. The voice of LOST's Jack Shephard has been in my mind for months: "We have to go BAAAACK!"
Best New Read: Religion
Sermons by John Chrysostom. The Golden Mouth goes verse by verse, sometimes phrase by phrase, through the book of Romans and reveals nuances, implications, attitudes, and excluded alternatives. The last twenty to fifty percent of each sermon builds on the Biblical text to give wisdom and exhortation to lead a better life. "It is not suffering ill, but doing it, that is really suffering ill."
Most Pleasant Surprise
Don Juan. Byron's poem had all the lush imagery and beautiful language I expected plus all the humor, philosophy, and morality I didn't.
Best New Read: Drama
Wild Duck, Peer Gynt. Ibsen seemed to have changed a lot between college days and now. When I was twenty, I didn't see why Hedda Gabler needed to shoot herself. But this year I read plays with deep, nuanced, and very sympathetic characters.
Best New Read: Fiction
Graham Greene, The End of the Affair. I think the title exerts undue influence on some reviewers: the affair is only a small part of this beautiful tale of Everyman's descent into sin.
Best New Read: Biography
Hoogenboom, Rutherford B. Hayes. Just this Thanksgiving, I played a game with my family called Evil Baby Orphanage, in which each player tries to take care of naughty little babies who will grow up to become infamous villains. Hitler, Caligula, Lizzie Borden, and all their bloodthirsty little baby friends are there. But so is Rutherford B. Hayes. "Oh, you know what he did," says the card cryptically. I was horrified – but not by Baby Rud. OK, so he promised to pull occupation troops out of the southern states in return for their agreement to give him the electors in our history's most disputed election. But, first, those troops had had only negative influence on long-term respect for Black's voting rights. And second, the confusion in that election far outstripped the weirdness of 2000, and no one else had any workable solutions. Other than that deal, Hayes just appointed many women to federal posts, brought on an economic boom, stood against monopolies, and worked tirelessly for prison reform, citizenship for Indians, and civil rights and education for Blacks. Hardly evil.
Best New Read that Crosses Categories
Max Weber, The Protestant Ethic and the Spirit of Capitalism. Theology, history, economics, philosophy, politics, cultural studies: every angle is fascinating.
Best Offroading
Roy and Lesley Adkins, The War for All the Oceans. Hefty quotations from source material feature on every page of this history of the naval side of the Napoleonic wars. It was a little strange to read several pages on the Battle of New Orleans and only a few lines on Waterloo, but then all the British troops in Louisiana came directly off of ships, and it is a history of the war for the oceans. It was also a little strange reading about the War of 1812 from a British point of view: they call it our Great Mistake.
Almost Perfect Fantasy
Summa Elvetica by Theodore Beale (Marcher Lord Press). This Christian fantasy book centers on a theological debate over whether elves have immortal souls, worded in Latin and patterned after the dialogical arguments of Thomas Aquinas. A novel's premise could not possibly appeal to me on more levels. If only it weren't missing an absolutely essential "non" in a couple of crucial places!
Best Reread
Charles Williams, The Place of the Lion. I didn't know enough about theology, Plato, psychology, or life to understand this book the first time I read it. I don't understand it all now, either, but I definitely got more. Just hold your bucket under Williams's wild, spraying fountain of mystical light. Most of it will miss your bucket, but what you catch will cleanse and satisfy.
And that's it for 2012. Readers, may your New Year be filled with great books!

Montgomery's churches part of city's 200-year history of slavery, civil rights
Adelle M. Banks/Religion News Service | 8/16/2019, 6 a.m.
MONTGOMERY, Ala.- Connections between Christianity, Confederacy and civil rights — and the history of slavery — are in plain sight in Alabama's capital.
Dexter Avenue King Memorial Baptist Church is known for its most famous pastor, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., but one of its early locations was once a slave pen.
St. John's Episcopal Church, where Confederacy President Jefferson Davis worshipped, is across the street from the building where Rosa Parks was tried after she refused to give up her bus seat to a white man.
And just beyond downtown, Old Ship African Methodist Episcopal Zion Church, a congregation that dates to before the end of slavery, sits across the street from the memorial that opened in 2018 to remember more than 4,400 lynching victims.
As the nation marks the 400th anniversary of the forced arrival of Africans in Virginia — and Alabama has its bicentennial — a walk through Montgomery's streets reveals the legacy of slavery in America.
"It is the cradle of the Confederacy and the birthplace of the modern Civil Rights Movement," said Kathy Dunn Jackson, volunteer historian of Old Ship AME Zion Church.
Religion sometimes played a role in the violence that followed slavery, as seen at the Equal Justice Initiative's National Memorial for Peace and Justice.
Amid the 800 6-foot steel columns memorializing those lynched from 1877 to 1950 is an example of a religious ceremony being cited as a reason to kill.
"Arthur St. Clair, a minister, was lynched in Hernando County, Fla., in 1877 for performing the wedding of a black man and white woman," reads a sign.
The memorial, on a 6-acre site, is described by its creators as "a sacred space for truth-telling and reflection about racial terrorism and its legacy."
About a mile away, the EJI's Legacy Museum, which traces history "from enslavement to mass incarceration," features holograms of black men, women and children held in pens singing spirituals like "Lord, How Come Me Here?" and speaking of missed loved ones from whom they have just been taken.
A sign points out that in 1860 Montgomery, there were more places for trading enslaved people than hotels and churches.
The current site of the Montgomery church where Dr. King pastored was purchased for $270 in 1879, and that spot also has ties to slavery — specifically the heart of the Confederacy in 1861.
Steve Murray, director of the Alabama Department of Archives & History, said the Capitol steps and that nearby church continued to be at the vanguard of major events a century after the start of the Civil War.
"At the bottom of those steps is where the Selma to Montgomery march culminated," he said. "You pack an awful lot of really significant American history into a few square blocks."

Private equity firms, family offices, private individuals, trusts and companies who have invested in start-ups or mature businesses during 2017 may have made a huge mistake if they have not considered investing through a Section 12J Venture Capital Company ("VCC").
At first glance, sophisticated investors may be convinced that Section 12J has no application to their investments. However, if investors are South African taxpayers, the chances that their investment/s may qualify for the Section 12J associated tax incentive are high.
The Section 12J benefit translates into a tax rebate on the full investment (28% for companies and up to 45% for individuals and trusts). This, in turn, results in a significant boost to return on investment.
When considering whether Section 12J is applicable to an investor, one would need to determine whether any of the below elements exist. If so, an investment will be regarded as non-qualifying and thus Section 12J will not have application:
- the gross asset value of the target company exceeds R50 million (unless the investment can be broken down into separate special purpose vehicles);
- the target company earns more than 20% of its income from investment income (for example, an investment into an investment holding company would not be permissible);
- the target company carries on of its trade outside of South Africa;
- the target company carries on one of the following "Impermissible Trades":
- any trade carried in respect of immovable property, other than a trade carried on as a hotel keeper (i.e. an investment in hotels, serviced apartments, holiday homes and student residences under certain circumstances will be permissible);
- any trade in the financial services sector (for example, banking, insurance, money lending, hire-purchase arrangements etc, however, this doesn't prevent an investor from investing in technology within this sector);
- any trade carried on in respect of financial or advisory services, including trade in respect of legal services, tax advisory services, stock broking services, management consulting services, auditing or accounting services; and
- any trade carried on in respect of gambling, liquor, tobacco, arms or ammunition.
On the premise that an investor's investment does not fall into one of the categories above, there is a real opportunity to take advantage of the Section 12J associated tax benefits. In order to illustrate a vanilla Section 12J transaction, we have set out below a recent transaction structured on behalf of a client.
In this case study, the investor is a property holding company which is looking to Section 12J for three reasons, namely to:
- invest in solar PV which will be installed on the property holding company's roof. The power will be sold to the property holding company;
- acquire equity in an existing business; and
- a cleaning services company which will offer its services to the property holding company and to third parties.
Effectively, the transactions will flow as follows (see below diagram):
- the property holding company will invest R50 million into the VCC and in return receive equity in the VCC and a tax deduction of R14 million.
- the VCC will then:
- acquire issued equity in the target company; and
- the solar SPV and the cleaning services SPV. The solar SPV will acquire the solar assets and enter into a power purchase agreement with the property holding company (that way ensuring the Section 12B deduction) and the cleaning services entity will the capital injection for operational purposes.
Absolutely, provided the structure from the outset is compliant with the legislation and the company managing the VCC has the correct compliance processes, expertise experience.
If your investment falls outside of the categories mentioned above, then there is a very high probability that your transaction may well comply with the Section 12J requirements.
Accordingly, If you have just realised that Section 12J may be applicable to your business, or you are still not sure, feel free to email Jonty Sacks (email@example.com) or Rory Sim (firstname.lastname@example.com) and they will be sure to assist you with determining whether there is an opportunity for you to structure your transaction through a VCC.
We have structured VCCs across multiple sectors and we work exceptionally close with ENSAfrica in order to be 100% certain our structures are legally sound. Below are a few examples of the sectors which we have experience in structuring Section 12J transactions:
- renewable energy: Commercial and residential rooftop solar, large PV projects and wind energy projects
- franchises
- mining
- hospitality: Student residence developments, hotel developments, holiday homes in specific estates,
- Moveable leasing

Columbia County HHS & Administrative Office Building I Portage, Wisconsin
Currently in design this two phase project consists of a new 68,000 sf County Administration building and 45,000 sf Health and Human Services building. These two facilities are the initial phase of the Columbia County Master Plan and are located in the southeast corner of downtown Portage Wisconsin. The building site straddles the canal between the Wisconsin and Fox rivers where the lumberyard and historic Portage Hosiery Company once stood. The exterior design, although contemporary, incorporates elements of the canal's past with the introduction of shed roofs, a simple rhythm of punched windows and similar material palette. Connecting the two buildings, is a pedestrian walkway which incorporates cast stone piers and expressed structure similar to the many historic bridges and train truss bridges found throughout Columbia County.
The project is to be bid at the end of December with the groundbreaking in early spring 2016. The second phase of the project consists of renovating the current County Administration building for the Courts and court related departments. Design for this phase begins mid 2016 with construction completed in 2018.

Following the cancellation of last year's Fourth of July fireworks show in Powder Springs due to lack of funding, this year will be different as the city celebrates the Fourth of July with not only fireworks but also several new changes.
They include the April 6 groundbreaking of the downtown park, the May groundbreaking of a soccer complex by former Olympic soccer star Michelle Akers, new downtown businesses, a new townhome development and a new hotel.
With free admission, SpringsFest on the 4th will be presented by the Powder Springs Business Group and the city of Powder Springs.
"We are thrilled to once again experience and enjoy July 4th in Powder Springs with the leadership and organization of the Powder Springs Business Group who agreed to undertake this momentous celebration as a part of their annual SpringsFest event," said Powder Springs Mayor Al Thurman.
"The 4th has always been a popular community event in Powder Springs; and PSBG's programming always offers fun, good food and great entertainment," Thurman added.
The July 4th festivities will start at 4 p.m. at Powder Springs Park, 3899 Brownsville Road, with live entertainment and performances, food trucks, children's games and activities, artisan vendors, bouncy houses, a game truck, Giant Bubbles by Sweet Pea the Clown & Markey, an Interactive Dance Party by Kim Armstrong – A Popular Dance and other surprises for the 10,000 to 15,000 expected to attend.
The event will close with the fireworks show at around 9:30 p.m.
"This will be a grand celebration that brings the local businesses and families together," said City Councilman Henry Lust.
"PSBG is a true partner in collaborating with the city to create an atmosphere of community," Lust added.
SpringsFest on the 4th also is sponsored by Croy Engineering and Greystone Power.
More sponsors and vendors are needed to make this community event a reality, according to Petergaye Rhodes of PSBG.
Interested sponsors and vendors may sign up at SpringsFest4th.com or call Rhodes at 404-954-2576.
A Business Ambassador for the city of Powder Springs, the Powder Springs Business Group (PSBG) "brings local business owners and the community together to maximize business opportunities and provide greater visibility through marketing, community events, lunch 'n' learn seminars, monthly business mixers and partnerships," according to Rhodes.
A portion of the proceeds will be donated to Simple Needs Georgia, a nonprofit organization based in Marietta that assists homeless Cobb County families and individuals with transitional housing, supplies and basic needs.

Stroll through the Lower East Side these days and you may be drawn to the red leather wingback that fills the window of 62 Clinton Street. Behind the glass is Spec., the promising men's shop opened last month by Hong Kong transplants Andrew Wong and Elton Chung. Together they curate a host of Japanese labels that interpret classic casual outerwear with unusual cuts, new finishes and unexpected materials.
Spec.'s label roster includes Ships, Takeo Kikuchi, Comme Ça Commune, Think Pink, Power to the People, Dips, Nicole Club, and Min, many of which can't be found anywhere else in the city. Even the Ben Sherman gear they carry is made for the Japanese market.
Andrew, who has designed for D&G, AX, 555 Soul and Ecko Int'l, looks beyond the mercerized, enzyme-washed textures of recent years. "All that softness—people are getting sick of it." He pulls a stiff blazer in heavy cotton twill off the rack, explaining that tougher, more durable fabric with a "dry handfeel" is gaining popularity in Japan. One fieldcoat almost looks like leather; "P-U", says Elton—cotton coated with polyurethane.
Most of the stock arrives through Tectonic, Spec.'s sister store that Elton, an erstwhile banker, restauranteur and importer/exporter, opened a year ago in Hong Kong. "We see people get inspired by Japanese streetwear," says Andrew. "Since Elton had a store already, and all the connections, why not offer it to New York?"
A washed leather jacket from Dragon 9 is soft and textured. For two rakish looks, its collar can be turned up and buckled at the neck, or unstrapped and turned down into a thin-lapelled blazer. May Champ reconstructs hoodies with printed chest panels—check the psychedelic floral double-slash or the kirin "V". One of the most compelling pieces is an herringbone wool fieldcoat from PPFM, with two zip left shoulder pockets, a belted back and a subtle dye treatment.
In true Hong Kong style, there are some great unbranded items. Tagless woven henleys are a steal, and an anonymous blazer skillfully marries sportcoat casual with the double-knit cotton of a quality hoodie. New product will come in every month, announced by email, and will rotate in with items already on the floor.
The store itself has a warm, almost woodsy décor, kitted out with salvaged timber racks, an antique rail ticket counter, and a crystal chandelier—just for a dash of old-world whimsy. The corkscrew painted on the exposed brick wall nods to the space's former use as a wine shop.
Be sure to check out the slim leather wristbands by Nneuhs, ne Deacon Yu, which use iron fasteners and simple twists for a masculine-minimalist effect. Word to the wise—Japanese provenance means many items are better tailored for slighter frames, and everything is limited in quantity and size. If it fits, buy it—it might be your only chance.
Spec. is located at 62 Clinton Street, between Rivington and Stanton, 212-228-3008.
Bridging three islands of fashion and commerce—Hong Kong, Japan, and Manhattan—the import boutique Spec. brings Asian hip to the downtown scene.

Chicago-area synagogue and school vandalized
CHICAGO (MCT) — Anti-Semitic words spray-painted at a North Side synagogue and Jewish school early Wednesday were covered with tarps and later blasted from bricks and sidewalk in an effort to shield students from the hate-filled phrases, officials said.
"The kids have had a normal day in school, and they have been protected from this," said Senior Rabbi Michael Siegel of Anshe Emet Synagogue. "Certainly we're not going to let any one person or any group interrupt the important things we do here."
The vandalism was reported to police about 6 a.m. Wednesday.
The graffiti appeared a little more than a week after a rabbi and three children were gunned down at a Jewish school in Toulouse, France, an incident that Siegel said he thinks inspired the graffiti.
"All these things are connected, and whether this is a copycat or part of a larger organized plan, I can't say, but the connection is unmistakable," Siegel said. "Actions lead to more actions, words to more words."
Police were reviewing synagogue surveillance video to try to identify the vandal, said Officer John Mirabelli, a Chicago police spokesman.
Surveillance video appears to indicate that one person, believed to be a woman, is responsible for graffiti that was found in at least five spots around the synagogue and school, Siegel said. A person is seen walking around and vandalizing the building from 12:47 a.m. to 1:14 a.m.

Botox Injections & Treatments For Depression
You probably think you are dizzy or unable to read correctly, but it's true, Botox is now being used to treat psychological disorders. It all started roughly 4 years ago when for the first time over 50% of global sales of Botox were not for beauty related anti-aging uses. That is right, Botox treatments & injections are now being used from everything from sweaty palms, to motor-neural tics and of course depression. So there you have it, it's not all about young and fabulous skin anymore and it may be time for you to speak with your doctor or psychotherapist about Botox.

Leather Bags for Women
Complete your look with fashionable handbags…
Beautiful genuine leather bags for women that can be mainly divided into three groups: leather crossbody handbags with long single slings with the 'messenger'- and/or 'satchel' look for women on the go. Secondly, leather shoulder bags with either double or single strap with the 'satchel'-, 'barrel'-, 'classic'- and/or 'saddlebag' look. Thirdly, the more classic style leather handbags for women with the modern 'tote'-, 'hobo'-, 'bucket'-, 'doctor'- and/or 'bowling' styles.
A tote look from the outside, but conventional from the inside. The Candice handbag is not the usual tote carryall shopper bag because of the divided interior and practical pockets.
It can be easily incorporated into your individual style be it classic or casual, because of its simple sophistication.
This is a good quality to have in a handbag and even better when considered with the voluminous interior. It comes with a zippered interior divider, a second interior zip pocket, an interior sleeve, and front zip pocket, yet it does not appear bulky. The full-grain genuine leather construction and strong fabric-lining provide long-lasting use.
IN SHORT, it is practical, comfortable and fashionable.

WHO to Send 1 Million Cholera Vaccines to Haiti
The World Health Organization announced Tuesday that it will send 1 million doses of cholera vaccine to Haiti, where hundreds of cases of the deadly diarrheal disease have been reported after Hurricane Matthew tore through the country one week ago.
Partners In Health applauds the news for a simple reason.
"Cholera vaccines save lives," says Dr. Louise Ivers, PIH's senior health and policy advisor.
The WHO will coordinate the use of vaccines with Haiti's Ministry of Public Health and Population, which leads the cholera response in Haiti, Ivers says. Any decision on the final destination of the vaccines will greatly depend on need and the logistical capacity to distribute them.
Zanmi Lasante, as PIH is known in Haiti, has seen firsthand the power of cholera vaccination. In 2012, staff conducted a successful vaccination campaign that reached 45,417 Haitians in the regions of Grand Saline and Bocozel. Nearly 90 percent of patients received the recommended two dosages.
The campaign dramatically reduced the risk of cholera for those who got the vaccine, and likely for those who didn't. As Ivers explains, cholera vaccines have an effect called "herd protection." The more people who are vaccinated, the less cholera circulates—meaning even those who didn't receive the vaccine have less risk of getting the disease.
Hundreds of cholera cases have already been reported just one week after the hurricane in the hardest-hit South, including Jérémie, Port Salut, and Les Cayes. Flood waters have mixed with sewage contaminated with cholera bacteria. Because fewer than half of Haitians have access to clean water, they draw from these sources and suffer the consequences. The infectious disease causes vomiting and diarrhea, and patients can die within 24 hours if the illness is left untreated.
PIH staff are now organizing mobile teams to help support partners in the South, including at the hospital in Les Cayes.
Cholera was introduced to Haiti in 2010. Shortly after the devastating January earthquake, the United Nations flew in a group of peacekeepers from Nepal, whose capital had recently suffered an outbreak of the disease, and set them up in a camp with poor plumbing. Contaminated sewage leaked into a tributary of the longest river in the country, the 200-mile Artibonite, which is a water source for countless Haitians. A cholera epidemic was born. In the six years since, nearly 10,000 Haitians have died and 800,000 have been sickened by the disease.

Vandalism won't stop Folsom synagogue
A recent act of vandalism won't stop a local synagogue from practicing their faith.
According to Rabbi Yossi Grossbaum, executive director at the Chabad Jewish Community Center, someone threw a large rock through the side window so hard that it hit an arc and cracked one of its doors inside the center at 302 South Lexington Drive, Folsom. Grossbaum said he entered the synagogue Saturday, March 3, to find broken glass all over the room.
"We shook the glass off of the tables and held Shabbat services as normal," Grossbaum said. "After Shabbat we filed a police report and cleaned up."
Grossbaum said this occurrence is "a possible hate crime." However, the police said there is no evidence that it is anything more than an unfortunate random act of vandalism.
"The (vandalism) occurred between 10 p.m., Friday, March 2, and noon the next morning," said Jason Browning, Folsom Police Department spokesman. "An unknown suspect threw a river rock through an exterior glass door."
Browning said according to police records, "this was an isolated incident and the staff didn't have any reason to believe they were victimized due to their faith."

The phase of germination of a seed is the basis of the strength and splendor of a flower or
plant. The beauty of your flower garden depends.
Bauhinia becomes enlightened easily from seeds. - Plant seeds as deep as 1-2 cms in your ground. - Keep in the heat, wet but not waterlogged. - The seeding occurs in the 3-4 weeks, but could be longer. - The process of seeding could be boosted if you dip seeds into the hot water for night.
Easy to cultivate from seeds. - Dip seeds into the hot water during 24 hours before sowing on surface in one compost for seeds. - Recover the whole of little of compost or of vermiculite. - Do not forget the light which helps in the seeding. - Maintain an optimal temperature 15-18°C. - Preserve the surface of the wet ground, but never diluted. - The seeding occurs in 14-30 days, sometimes more. - The seeding can be faster by applying the technique by thorough heat.

In this episode, Asala and Niko are heading for Hypatia as they follow the trail of the eponymous missing ship – but they've got an unexpected third party aboard their cruiser. Cue much awkwardness, and some very tense situations. Let's discuss The Vela. Spoilers follow for this episode.
Month: March 2019
Hooray hooray, it's a new serial day! The Vela is one of the latest new releases from Serial Box Publishing and has been on my 2019 watch list for a while, because the lineup of writers associated with it knocked my geeky socks off: SL Huang, Becky Chambers, Rivers Solomon and Yoon Ha Lee. I mean. It's like rock star levels of writer collaboration, if you're a modern sci-fi nerd. And I love me some modern sci-fi. So let's dive …
Last May, myself and a pair of like-minded fantasy nerds took the plunge into a month-long celebration of all things fantasy. We invited all other like-minded fantasy nerds to the party, and we called it Wyrd & Wonder. This year, it's back. Yeah, baby. We're getting a sequel.
So I blinked and missed February. Huh. Not a lot got written about this month (thanks, Anxiety), but I'm telling myself that this is OK. My disposition is a bit sunnier now, and plans are being made! Let's take a quick look at what February did.
