Kyle and I started off today with the goal of riding the Moab Rim Trail. The trail starts off climbing along narrow ledges perched high above a road and a river. Such a sheer drop naturally causes certain body parts to clench and adrenalin to surge.
Thus we have added some calming classical guitar to the clip below, both to reduce our viewer's stress and cover up our whimpering.
We knew that the Rim Trail was considered difficult, mainly due to two large ledges near the beginning. After that, the trail promised scenic treasures galore… for those who can pass the first two tests.
We failed.
Our Little Mule just doesn't have the ground clearance for large steps. At the end of the clip below I make a key statement: "let me put another rock there".
We tried building up ramps from loose stones, but even that could not get our trusty steed up the rise. So we admitted defeat, drove back down the trail, and put the RZR up in the truck bed.
Then five jeeps from a national off-road club showed up. They proudly answered our questions about their modified vehicles.
Then I mentioned the rocks…
… and received a lecture, from their apparent leader, on why one should NEVER add rocks to a section to make it easier. Phrases like "you'll dumb it down and pretty soon people with drive up in cars" and "only attempt trails that your vehicle can handle" drove home his point. He said they had ridden the trail before and should be able to drive right up.
Appropriately chastised, we hoofed it back up the hill to view their obvious skill and wizardry.
The lecturer went first.
And this happened.
Note that I am the one warning that he is about to drop his left front wheel into a deep gap in the rocks. His spotter should have been watching that.
The next words out of his mouth?
"Let's throw some rocks down there…".
Phrases like: "Pride goeth before the fall" and "Do as I say, not as I do" were ringing in my mind.
But I kept my mouth closed, smiled at him, and we walked away.
We headed to the Poison Spider Mesa parking lot. The lot was just across the river but required several miles of driving to reach. By the time we returned to the parking lot we both declared this our favorite trail.
It has a little of everything:
A section called "The Waterfalls" that present intimidating looking stair step climbs that are actually fairly easy and a total blast.
This waterfall was the only section that had some sand on the rock face. As you can see, the RZR just powered up with a little wheel spin. The driver can feel the interaction easily and control the power as necessary.
As Kyle powers up this next section you get a good view of our "Action Packer" and camera case strapped in the RZR's cargo space. Well-sealed cases are a must at Moab to keep sand from invading everything.
An area on top of the mesa where Kyle could indulge his lead foot in sand and gravel.
Great panoramic views.
And a stunning overlook of the Moab Valley.
The ride was a wonderful bow tied around Kyle and Leah's visit with us. The ladies planned and executed a tasty Chicken, Steak, Corn on the Cob and Salad meal to wrap up the evening.
Life is good. Friends are Great.

As one of my focuses this year, the environmental design was very important. I knew I wanted to design a level that kept the player interested while making the most out of the
space in the game, reusing locations or allowing for multipath navigation where some elements I considered during the design process of creating the environment. I started by designing the game spaces that players could occupy and scale the level to player progression, this enabled me to ensure the level felt fluid. Next came the base layout for checkpoints and doors, locks and shortcuts, allowing players to return to previous areas without travelling back through the path they initially took, by creating a level that pulls the player to a soft left I created a map that would allow this as the map is always adjacent to the last section of level, players travel in an anti-clockwise fashion around the map to reach the end while being offered plenty of different paths and opportunity this brings forth a sense of familiarity.
After the rough level design came the floors, (which floor would each section be on), the first iteration offered several layers for players to traverse and this evolved into the floors 1-5 in the final draft, these levels interconnect and offer variety to the player rather than simply adventuring across a plane.
During the first design phase, the game was going to be one single dungeon with puzzle rooms and riddles, the environmental design would be very a classic dungeon style and play on the dungeon crawling genera as a large aspect, I looked at different dungeons around the world and underground spaces to get an idea for theme of visual design and what sort of puzzles might exist in these spaces – Underground gardens and temples to burial sites and ice caves across the world and although these exotic locations would have been interesting to design with, I wanted a location that tied in with the narrative a little better and so I considered places that demons may dwell, dark places evil places and of course the thing that all demons have in common, the afterlife – and so I looked at representations of hell from different religions and mythologies. These gave some great ideas, I worked on the idea that the environments would vary the further you progress in the game to display different forms of hell, Having a Christian hell representation was an important element as so many religions and mythologies draw inspiration from this that using this as a basis for a level section would cover much of this, I also wanted a contrast from the flaming pits of hell that Christian hell details and so my first thought was Norse believe with their 9 worlds. The Norse representation of Hell (Helheim) is cold, icy and misty, very different to the former representation, unfortunately Helheim has been very poorly documented in comparison to Christian Hell due to Norse Vikings in the 800 AD people often not detailing their mythologies with visuals or writing and so much of the design would have to come from ideation rather than research.
My other consideration was that perhaps there should be a foreshadowing or precursor to these sections – That is why I considered having an actual dungeon section to the game to act as a start point, to teach the players how to combat the challenges ahead and allow them to fully take in the environments later in the game, a huge reason for the environment looking the way it does is due to it taking the form of what the player thinks Hell might look like, section 1 being the gateway, two being the cold version and final being firery hell. I also considered a fourth space that would be akin to a void like design representing the atheist belief of nothing after death, however, I left that a fourth space would be unnecessary with the content I already had and so this idea was dropped there.
Now that my three spaces existed, I worked on some visualisations and how the level might work, I worked on transforming my environmental spaces into a level design, things that players could see and paths for them to travel, then came dividing them into
the three sections of level for individual designing in terms of concept art. Marking Lightrooms, levers, lifts, doors, stairs and boss rooms was a step taken after that and resulted in the final map of the environment.
Modelling the first room in the game – created in 3ds max. Skip to 10:30 for final result in unity
Art style and visuals
Although mostly explained within the art styles section in the ideation page – Visually, I wanted to create a very high-quality environment while keeping the polygon count low to enable more systems to run the game (another reason for the chosen art style) refer to the video above – This is an example of a low poly environment that can be game ready – In terms of 3D constraints, Utilising effective culling methods such as occlusion and backface culling as well as a possible render distance will enable the visuals to fully come to life. For the environmental colour pallets, I used original images from the research locations and broke these down into base colours, this then formed the basis for creating my environmental colour sets.
Mechanical systems became a fundamental focus of this game, creating a game where the mechanics and environment worked together in new and original ways was one of my personal goals. Starting initially with puzzles in the form of rooms was environmental based mechanics that
required players to problem solve to progress, I designed several variations of this, players would venture through the level combatti
ng enemies and then upon reaching a puzzle room would attempt to solve the puzzle as a group, this was an initial solution to environmental based mechanics systems.
After some thought, some issues became evident with this system, these puzzles had little to no replay value, in other words, once the players understand the systems they cease to become a challenge and are simply an obstacle. There is also the consideration that the gameplay would feel a little disjointed, advancing from fast intensive combat to slow possibly tedious puzzle systems would possibly not add anything to the overarching experience and so I returned to the drawing board with how to create mechanical systems that did not hinder the experience but added to it.
Integrated features
Creating features that felt that they were created on a base level of the game, rather than surface elements that could fit in any dungeon crawler, essentially I wanted to change the way the genre is played, there is one simple way to do this and that was to take
systems that players believe they understand and make evident that these systems work differently – the systems I would change would be space and death as my primary elements. Starting with space, players understand that there is space in which they can venture into and space they cannot, this space is visible to they and so they believe that this space is accessible, this is where my light mechanic takes to the stage, players can venture into these spaces but only if the space is lit up, this is a constantly updating system as only one player can hold a torch, that one player alone decides the space that is accessible and this is a rule that dictates if players live or die, which brings me onto my next system, death.
Death can be handled in different ways and true the concept of punishment for failure is nothing new which is essentially this system however the way this is achieved is something new. Players lose their favourite item upon death as well as take a debuff on that class of weapons, a blow to the player in question and any of their teammates as well, why their favourite weapon and a debuff? This system does not allow players to forget their mistakes, the debuff will constantly remind them of this, however, an inherently cruel system is something that few enjoy and so the possibility of redemption at lightroom's is always an option enabling players to buy their lost item back and negate the debuff in exchange for currency.
Another more abstract puzzle is the character class systems of Melee, Range and Mage, this is less an obstacle that players must overcome but more about adopting a strategy and making it work, players are free to choose whichever class they like and are not locked into using that weapon so there is still an element of freedom and allowing players to play the game as they choose but also giving them a helping hand at the beginning.
These systems are puzzles in their own way, they make the player think about the way they want to play rather than simply challenge them with generic puzzles and locked doors that can only be opened with riddles, these features look to the players to understand them and respect them, they present a challenge to the player but in a way that does not feel cheap, it's not difficulty in for form of more enemies with more health, or the player being made to feel worthless by dealing no damage against impossible foes – the mechanics should keep players on their toes while always offering them a helping hand, should they need it.

Greenhill Down is a lovely reserve, seemingly miles from anywhere and a haven of peace and calm. Mixed downland and woodland habitats with a wide range of flowers and insects along with a number of woodland bird species too. There are lovely views, especially towards Milton Abbey. If visiting be sure to look in at the dew pond but you will need to look at the map on the interpretation board to be able to find it!
The peace and quiet is attained at a price though; Greehill Down is not for the faint-hearted! There is very limited parking in the small village of Hilton and then there is a walk of just over a mile (up hill) just to reach the reserve and another mile back and so if you are not a fit as you once were that does not leave a lot left to see the reserve itself which covers quite a reasonable area. There are no footpaths, seats or other facilities, this is a reserve for the enthusiast! If you are fit then do not let anything put you off a visit.

Asked March 30, 2018, 12:02 AM EDT
I have two weeping pussy willow trees in my yard. We just bought this property last year and so this is my first spring here. I noticed these bulbs (not the blossoms) on the branches and wondered what they are and what I should do, if anything. Thank you!

The growth on the stem is a gall caused by a midge (small flying insect), in this case, probably a willow beaked-gall midge (Rabdophaga rigidae). These galls usually do not affect the health of the plant so no control is needed.

text: man's chest, sharp and fast, until he was gasping for breath. Mark could hear him mumbling to himself. He waited a minute and then stepped up to his side. "You ready to hook a few?" Mark sounded relaxed and nodded his faded baseball cap toward the water. The old man didn't react for a second, then slowly turned and looked at Mark. His eyes were heavy and pink around the edges and showed no emotion. "Young man, why don't you go have a cup of coffee and leave me to my thoughts." He pushed his words out from the gut, his voice deep and almost hard to understand because he didn't seem to move his mouth much, and turned back to the water. So this was the even if he acts like he doesn't part. Mark cleared his throat and decided to cut right to the point; fight fire with fire. He knew this would be a tough sell. It was showtime. "Well, Tex, if your thoughts involve catching a fish, we'd better get started," he said matter-offact. The old man glared at him and snorted. "Right there," Mark continued, pointing the rod through the Cottonwood trees toward a downstream bend. "First cast, I'd bet." "And how do you suppose I'm gonna get over there?" The old man asked with a sharp tone in his voice and patted his thigh. "Huh? Tell me that, young man. And by the way, m' name's Walt." "Okay, Walt." Mark smiled. "Well my name is Mark," he slapped his back over his shoulder, "and we go piggy back!" The old man looked at Mark like the guide might have suggested robbing a bank. "We're the only people on the river today so it's okay." Mark said in low voice as he cupped a hand around his mouth, waggling his eyebrows like he'd just revealed a secret. "No one will see." The old man looked off into the trees for a min ute. "You're crazy," he huffed. Mark clapped once loudly and pointed at the old man. "Give that man a SEE-GAR! Now let's catch some fish!" Mark squatted down like a Sumo wrestler and slapped his back again. When Walt didn't move, Mark waved him over, nodding. Walt looked around with a B-movie head swivel. Mark squat-walked over to the old man and pointed at his back. Walt seemed to recoil; "What the hell…" Mark put a finger to his lips as if to say Hush and pointed to his back again, then looked off into the trees and posed dramatically like a linebacker ready to pounce. After looking around one more time, Walt slowly leaned onto his guide's muscular back and wrapped one arm around his neck. Mark threaded his arms under the old man's skinny thighs and stood quickly, setting off at a fast clip on a well-worn trail, talking about aquatic insects in the river that were active at that time of year. The old man's free hand held his hat in place, and if you were to look closely, the corners of his mouth seemed to give a little. After weaving through the Cottonwoods and crossing a shallow riffle, Mark walked out onto a narrow, pointy gravel bar that sliced into a bend of the river. The water was black with depth where it swung through the outside of the oxbow, a thin line of foamy white bubbles floating along the undercut bank. Mark set his passenger down started tying on a fly. Walt whistled softly. "This is good water, yessir," he said to no one in particular and took off his hat, running a hand over his gray stubble. The Cottonwood trees buffered the wind, and it was a still, silent place, but the damp chill told Mark snow was not far off. The old man coughed again, his body heaving until he put his hands on his knees for balance. Mark looked up for just a moment, and then returned to tying on the fly. A watery slurp marked where a trout took a barely submerged terrestrial, causing rings to form briefly at the tail of the pool. "That's what I'm talkin' about!" Mark said as he twirled the monofilament into a sturdy knot. "Do you think those bugs can see the fish coming?" The old man spoke. "Hard to say," Mark said without looking up. "Think it helps to know?" Walt asked, still staring at the water. "Know what?" "That your time has come." The statement was spoken as cold and heavy as the smooth stones at the bottom of the river. Being a fishing guide is a bit like being a bartender, in that conversation, advice, and humor are expected as part of the package. Mark usually had a great sense of timing with all of them, but

LOS ANGELES — Dodger Stadium was home to Major League Baseball's ninth annual Civil Rights Game April 15, which coincided with Jackie Robinson Day for the first time.
Robinson's widow, Rachel, participated in the first pitch ceremony before the Los Angeles Dodgers-Seattle Mariners game along with Robinson's former teammates Hall of Famer Sandy Koufax and former Brooklyn Dodger pitching star Don Newcombe. Joni Campanella, the daughter of the late Hall of Fame catcher Roy Campanella, and scholars from the Jackie Robinson Foundation also were featured in the ceremony.
Dolores Huerta, who co-founded the United Farm Workers with Cesar Chavez, Basketball Hall of Fame member and Dodger part-owner Magic Johnson, and basseball Hall of Famer Frank Robinson also were recognized during pre-game ceremonies.
Huerta and Johnson received the 2015 MLB Beacon Awards, which recognize individuals whose lives and actions have been emblematic of the spirit of the civil rights movement. Frank Robinson received a special award in recognition of the 40th anniversary of his becoming Major League Baseball's first black manager.
In connection with the Civil Rights Game, a roundtable discussion was held earlier in the day at the Millennium Biltmore Hotel on the role baseball played in the civil rights movement.
The panelists included Johnson; Huerta; Frank Robinson; Sharon Robinson, Major League Baseball's educational programming consultant and the daughter of Jackie Robinson; Billy Bean, Major League Baseball's ambassador for inclusion; and Brian Woodward, a doctoral student in the Urban Schooling division of UCLA's Graduate School of Education & Information Studies. The discussion was moderated by Harvard Law School professor Charles Ogletree.
Major League Baseball's Civil Rights Game was initially held as an exhibition in Memphis, Tennessee, the site of the National Civil Rights Museum, in 2007 and 2008, as a way for Major League Baseball to honor the civil rights movement and baseball's role in it "and to pay tribute to individuals outside of baseball who embodied its spirit through their actions," Steven Arocho, Major League Baseball's director of business communications, told City News Service.
It was switched to a regular-season game in 2009 "because Major League Baseball recognized that clubs, and the cities that house them, have their own civil rights stories to tell and the most appropriate way to do so was to host the event at their ballparks" during the regular season, Arocho added.

Coronavirus (COVID-19)
More information
We're proud to work alongside Street Pastors who dedicate their free time to helping others - including an off-duty volunteer who rushed to the aid of an unconscious teen attacked in Coventry.
Trevor Briers raced to the aid of the 18-year-old man after being alerted he had been knocked out and was fitting last Saturday evening (30 May).
The 59-year-old's Street Pastor training and instincts came to the fore and he offered immediate care and support. He also ensured a gathering of people stepped back to provide some space and allow paramedics to take over when they arrived.
The man regained consciousness and he was taken to hospital with facial injuries.
Trevor is part of the Coventry Street Pastors who voluntarily work alongside us, the council and night-time economy in the city centre. They offer help, care and even just a listening ear to those who need support.
While the coronavirus pandemic has impacted on the need for recent patrols, the role of the Pastors will continue to be vital in the future.
Superintendent Phil Healy, of Coventry Police, said: "This was typical of the caring nature of Street Pastors which we're extremely proud to work alongside.
"Trevor rushed to the aid of this young man and, through his training, knew what to do to help him until paramedics arrived.
"His immediate instinct was to help someone in harm and distress and we're grateful to have him as a Street Pastor in our city... as we are with all his volunteer colleagues.
"It's a valued role which hopefully more people will consider in the future."
Coventry Street Pastors co-ordinator, Isabel McIntyre, added: "We are just glad that Trevor was there. It shows that street pastors are never really off duty, and that even though we are not out on the streets at the moment we can still be of help.
"Street pastors have 50 hours of training before going out on patrol and this shows that none of it is wasted. We can't wait to resume our patrols."
There are Street Pastor groups based across the West Midlands cities and towns and we're thankful for your support. For more information visit the https://streetpastors.org website.
*A 20-year-old man has been arrested on suspicion of assault in Beake Avenue, Holbrooks, and bailed pending further enquiries. The investigation is ongoing and anyone with information can contact us via Live Chat or by calling 101, quoting 20CV/124532B/20.

Imagine you are setting up a new dev team. Either to your current company or to a new one.
What are the first things you would do to safeguard the quality of your day to day life? Those could be technical or more procedural like:
Setting up CI/CD, coding standards, remove technical debt, etc
Setting out a clear process the various recurring meetings, ground rules like "leave the meeting if it is not valuable to you", evaluation processes, 1-1s, etc
Definitely formal process and roles definition. From how the team receives backlogs, development process, review process, testing process, release process up to bugs management.
If you're a manager like myself, I suggest not to be involved into technical details too much e.g. about which CI/CD tools to use. Let the team decides how to do it in technical details while you decide what to do, i.e. the process itself and strategical stuffs.
I wouldn't worry about defining banal ground rules such as meetings, evaluations etc. If you decide to have scrum most of these rules have been defined already and you only need to adjust the rules from time to time.
I agree with the technical details thing, though it is easy in days of such change (eg new team leader or reorganization) to have increased tension and change-everything attitude. We also tend to be a very opinionated clan of people :)
So how would you resolve such conflicts if consensus is not an option?
From how the team receives backlogs, development process, review process, testing process, release process up to bugs management.
That is so true.
I wouldn't worry about defining banal ground rules such as meetings, evaluations, etc. If you decide to have scrum most of these rules have been defined already and you only need to adjust the rules from time to time.
Indeed for the meetings, I think evaluations though are still DIY in such frameworks though. Correct me if I am wrong
Here's how I do it for my team. Every team member is free to give suggestions about tools, libraries, technologies, etc. If a team member wants to apply a tool/library for the whole team (e.g. CI/CD tool), then he/she must persuade other team members first. Then the team comes to me with the suggestion and justifications. I am the one that approve these tools/libraries before the team is allowed to use them. Ultimately I want to make sure that, among other things, 1) the licenses are fine 2) if it's a paid product I have the budget for it 3) the tools/libraries are mature, stable and well supported and 4) if I need to replace the team member(s) I can find replacements easily.
If the team needs to decide on technologies but they can't do it because occasionally they are such an opinionated bunch, then I will gladly make the decision for them based on my judgement.
Regarding evaluations, scrum has retrospective and review which in my experience are sufficient to evaluate the team's performance. I don't conduct yearly personal evaluation due to several reasons 1) it's an outdated concept 2) a year is too long for an evaluation and 3) I evaluate my engineers when I need to address decrease in their performance and try to fix it ASAP before the performance decrease becomes a burden for the team.
I like your approach the tech things.
How do you defend any raises or appraisal results in general to HR or high technical management? Depends on the company, of course, smaller companies tend to be more flexible here and others favor formality.
I am less than a month away from releasing a 200+ pages book where I discuss exactly that question :-). From
git init to production and anything in between. It's called Cloud Native Web Development and if you're interested, head over to gum.co/cloud-native-web-development for a full table of contents and more details.
At a high-level, I'd focus on removing friction for the dev team, automating what can be automated, focus on testing and quick, frequent production deployments using feature toggles to guard unfinished code from running in production.
Nice coincidence :) Good luck on your book.
How would you remove friction?
Good question, let me specify that a bit better.
One area that often causes friction is setting up a project's development environment. I'd personally use gitpod.io (Why I use a cloud-based development environment and how you can too) so that developers on the team can click a link and start up a fully configured environment.
Another area is CI / CD. I'd develop that pipeline as early as possible when it's still very simple to do. Then as the project grows, the CI / CD configuration grows with it organically.
Never thought to use gitpod this way. For most companies cloud IDEs are a no-go. Nice tips :)
Even if it's self-hosted as per gitpod.io/self-hosted?
I understand the concerns when it's used a SaaS offering.
I didnt know that option. That sounds better indeed
I know most of these discussions look into processes and automations, but I'd first make sure the team is cohesive and there is trust between every member. Once you have that, give the makers space to set up their environment as they best see fit.
How would you assert the trust levels? 1-1s?
I personally can't stand 1-1, I'd rather just have lunch together and chat. But yeah, it boils down to knowing your team, respecting and empowering the people. This is all soft skills territory, so it's hard to be specific.
Google years ago found out that the best indicator of the performance of a team is how safe the members felt (that is, feeling safe to speak up, because you'll be treated with respect and listened to, etc.)
Share with them the bigger picture that they are working toward for the customer, and how the team fits within the organization. Empower the team to self organize. A lot of things will naturally fall out of that even if you don't set them up initially, like ground rules, CI/CD, coding standards. Because with the proper goal and context, they will seek to optimize their own work and how progress is communicated to the organization. As team lead, an important job becomes to keep the customer's desired outcomes at the forefront as new issues come up. A lot of complexity can be avoided by simply remembering and rehearsing goals and context as the need arises.
The customer perspective is so important and thanks for pointing it out

There's a Russian tradition that dictates all who are about to leave on a trip should sit quietly in their home for a minute or so before heading out the door. The centuries-old practice ensures that the voyage will be a good one.
One of the last times Elena Gorokhova followed this custom was when she left the hard, regimented life in Russia — and a domineering mother — for America soon after marrying a visiting graduate student from New Jersey.
If her recently published memoir about growing up in the former Soviet Union is any indication, it's been an exceedingly good trip.
The marriage didn't last, but "A Mountain of Crumbs," her first book, has been greeted with near-universal acclaim.
"I was completely drawn into Elena's world," said Priscilla Painton, editor in chief of Simon and Schuster, which published Gorokhova's book. "After all the reading I do, I would come home from work and look forward to reading it. That's when I knew we had something extraordinary."
Many others agreed.
The New York Times described Gorokhova's book as an "exquisitely wrought, tender memoir of growing up in the Soviet Union."
"Elena Gorokhova has written the Russian equivalent of 'Angela's Ashes,' " said former U.S. poet laureate Billy Collins.
It was the famed author of "Angela's Ashes," the late Frank McCourt, whose 11-day writing seminar Gorokhova attended in Southampton, N.Y., the summer of 2004, who inspired Gorokhova to finish her book.
"He was a brilliant teacher and it was a unique class — among the 12 students were Alan Alda and Anne Bancroft — the rest of us were just sitting there in awe," Gorokhova, 53, recounted recently from the living room of her immaculate, Mission-style home in Ridgewood.
"In essence he gave me permission to write. I needed someone to tell me that."
It was McCourt's literary agent, Molly Friedrich, who shopped Gorokhova's manuscript to Simon and Schuster, where it landed on Painton's desk.
"Molly called and said I have this completed manuscript — it's long, but it's fabulous," said Painton, the former deputy managing editor of Time magazine. "Then she did something that never happens in the business. She said, 'Take your time reading it; I don't want to hear from you until you read every word,' rather than, 'I need to know something by Friday.' "
The journey from Russia to Ridgewood began in Leningrad, now St. Petersburg, in a small courtyard where neighborhood children would gather, Gorokhova said. One of those children, Masha Mironova, went to a special English school and had a stylish short haircut and wore nylon stockings, in stark contrast to the rest of the girls who wore their hair in braids and endured scratchy cotton leggings that tended to bunch up at the ankles. Masha's home had an actual living room, littered with magazines in English on fashion and luxury, which had a profound effect on young Gorokhova. The ability to speak English would be a key to a better life, she thought.
"That was my dream," Gorokhova said.
Gorokhova talked her physician mother, Galina Maltseva, into hiring an English tutor, which helped her gain acceptance to an elite university program. Her study of English allowed her contact with visiting foreign students, and ultimately a chance to move to the United States — far from her mother.
"She thought I was going to end up living under a bridge," Gorokhova said of that day.
"She said moving here would be like going into the mouth of the shark."
Maltseva would eventually visit New Jersey for the birth of Gorokhova's daughter, Lauren. Gorokhova's second marriage was to Andrew Perlstein, a Belleville psychotherapist.
Lauren is now 21 and a recent magna cum laude graduate of the University of Vermont.
And Gorokhova's mother, now 96, the tiny physician who once dominated Gorokhova in Leningrad, never returned to Russia. Maltseva still lives in the basement of Gorokhova's Ridgewood home, where she keeps washed, plastic bags under her bed, neatly folded and ready for reuse.
"The roles reversed gradually," Gorokhova said of her relationship with her mother. "I was not living with her, she living with me; I was working, she wasn't; I spoke English, and she didn't. She realized she couldn't run the home the way she did in Russia. That went to an improved relationship — ironic, but it was a good development."
Gorokhova is working on two new book projects — one about her mother's and sister's stories about the Soviet Union after World War II, and another that will be a continuation of her first book.
Despite the heaps of critical praise, "A Mountain of Crumbs," released last year, has not become a best-seller, with a respectable but not spectacular 5,000 books sold to date, according to Gorokhova. The book is scheduled to be released in paperback in January.
Painton described the sales of the hardcover version as "not bad for a first book."
"It came out in the middle of one of the worst recessions in our history," Painton said.
Gorokhova's modest response: "I haven't seen any royalties, so I'd be happy if I don't cost them any money."

Jana Sena chief Pawan Kalyan has chosen his turf from where he will be contesting the upcoming assembly elections. Putting aside to rumours of different places, Pawan is all set to contest from Gajuwaka constituency of Visakhapatnam.
Reason for Pawan choosing Gajuwaka
The constituency is considered as the stronghold hold of Praja Rajyam Party, where once a candidate won the seat way back in 2009. Secondly, Gajuwaka constituency is considered to have strong strong supporters of youth as youngestres are ardent followrs of Pawan kalyan.

A consortium made up of Mitsubishi Corporation (MC), Chubu Electric Power Co., Inc. (Chubu) and HICL Infrastructure Company Limited has been selected as the preferred bidder for a new offshore electricity transmission link in the UK.
Valued at approximately GBP 500 million, the new offshore electricity transmission asset is comprised of subsea cables, land cables, offshore substations and an onshore substation that connect with the Walney Extension Offshore Windfarm (Generation Capacity: 660MW) situated approximately 30 km off the UK's western coast.
The consortium will operate this electricity transmission business for a 20-year period starting from fiscal year 2019, following successful acquisition of the asset and the granting of an Offshore Transmission Owner (OFTO) license by the UK's Office of Gas and Electricity
Markets (Ofgem).
With the acquisition of the Walney Extension Offshore Windfarm transmission link, MC will now be operating, through its 100 per cent subsidiary Diamond Transmission Corporation Limited (DTC), eight out of twenty offshore transmission assets in the UK, giving it the largest share of the market. DTC will operate this electricity transmission business by leveraging its experience operating the neighboring Walney 1 and Walney 2 assets.

National football coach V. Sundram Moorthy believes he has a "good selection problem", even as his team lost 3-1 away at Qatar on Thursday in an international friendly that was used as a rehearsal for next Tuesday's crucial Asian Cup qualifier against Turkmenistan.
Needing to win or draw against world No. 136 Turkmenistan to begin clawing out of bottom place in the four-team Group E, the 162nd-ranked Lions opted to play Qatar to get a measure of the tough mission ahead in Ashgabat.
And while he believes lapses in concentration gift-wrapped two goals to world No. 85 Qatar, Sundram felt positives can also be drawn from the defeat.
He told The Straits Times yesterday: "This was an important warm-up. It gives me an indication of who is ready and who is not."
Normally a defensive-minded tactician, he opted for a more attacking 3-4-3 system at Doha's Jassim Bin Hamad Stadium.
He singled out forwards Ikhsan Fandi and Safuwan Baharudin, who can also play in defence and midfield, after both came on as second-half substitutes.
The 18-year-old Ikhsan, son of Sundram's former international team-mate Fandi Ahmad, is noted for his dribbling while Safuwan offered an aerial presence up front.
Concentration for the whole match is crucial... we need to work hard on certain areas. Staying concentrated will be one of those things.
V. SUNDRAM MOORTHY, national football coach, implores his squad to maintain their focus until the full-time whistle is blown.
Sundram noted:"They are really competing strongly for starting places and it is a good selection problem for me to have."
Singapore's other options in attack include current leading scorer Khairul Amri (32 goals), the tireless Fazrul Nawaz, winger Faris Ramli and skipper Shahril Ishak.
After a cagey start from both sides, the hosts took the lead through forward Almoez Ali in the 39th minute after a defensive mix-up by Singapore. He doubled Qatar's advantage soon after the restart with an easy header from Ismail Mohamad's cross.
Faris reduced the deficit in the 53rd minute with a volley.
The Lions thought they had equalised in the 58th minute through centre-back Daniel Bennett's goal-bound header off a corner, but Fazrul, who was in an offside position, applied the last touch and the effort was disallowed.
Qatar forward Ahmed Alaadin sealed victory with nine minutes remaining after he was brought down in the box by goalkeeper Hassan Sunny and scored from the resulting penalty.
Singapore midfielder Shahdan Sulaiman bemoaned the missed chances and said the Lions needed to be sharper if they wanted to get all three points in Turkmenistan.
He added: "We played a tactically good game, could have scored more and had a few chances. We found lapses in their defence but couldn't capitalise."
While pleased with their attacking side, Sundram was disappointed by the generosity of his team's defending.
Last month at the Jalan Besar Stadium, Singapore conceded a late equaliser to draw 1-1 with Turkmenistan.
"Scoring is one thing, but concentration for the whole match is crucial," noted Sundram, who turned 52 yesterday and was surprised with a birthday cake at dinner.
"We could have avoided at least two goals. Till the Turkmenistan game, we need to work hard on certain areas. Staying concentrated will be one of those things."
Singapore are bottom of Group E in the third round of the 2019 Asian Cup qualifiers with two points after two draws and one loss.
Bahrain are top with seven points, followed by Turkmenistan (four) and Chinese Taipei (three). The top two advance to the finals held in the United Arab Emirates.

ROM Hack and Fan Game Directory
Zeldacrafter_Swagg replied to ghast's topic in Fan ProjectsHi ! I'm the creator of Terror Of The Forest ! I'm really happy to see my hack featured here along with so many project by great people, but I believe there's been a mistake : My hack is not finished at all ! Could it be possible to move it to in-progress ? (It's currently right under The Heroes We Deserve, in the FE8 category). Thank you !
Good news ! Despite my computer dying, I managed to make a less buggy version !
Oof. Where does the ending cutscene cuts ? If you mean you're getting sent back to the title screen after then it's intentional. But otherwise... Also, I... I actually didn't implement anything for saving the villagers, sorry. I will most likely add it to a future update, but right now it didn't seem like one of my priorities, I apologize. Is there any other glitch you've encountered that hasn't been reported yet ? Other than that, I'm really glad you liked the maps and especially the cast ! I hope you will play future updates too ! And, if you have any criticism toward my writing, or some characters in particular, please tell me !
I see. I thought I had fixed all the bugs around this knight, but it looks like I was mistaken... Well, thanks for telling me about it !
I understand where the Arnold bug comes from. However, I have difficulties understanding what happens exactly with Shell. Could you please record what happens ? That would be super-duper helpful ! Glad to hear you like the idea ! Although there are a few other hacks out there starring bandits, probably in a more traditional manner than me. I still hope you will enjoy my hack if you manage to play it later !
Ah, yes, this bug. I hoped no one would notice, but it's too late now ! Seriously though, I don't know why such things happen. The only solution I can think of is making this specific event (visiting Alfred's cave and receiving the Hero Crest) take place at the end of the last chapter. This will require a lot of writing and some eventing, but it shouldn't be that difficult. I didn't think leaving the arenas as they were would be that big of a deal. I mean, the GBA FE games had arenas too. But I'll think about it. What if I buffed Stoneharm (You know, the optional boss guarding Ch3's arena) and pulled out the same trick for Ch4 ? Would this be enough ? Thanks for the compliment about writings, but I really wish to improve and make it as good as possible, so if you have any suggestions, please tell me !
Well, about archers, I didn't come up with anything good for the whole class, so I tried to make each one of them stand out for some reason. There are three playable archers currently. The first one is the Jagen archetype, so he's useful at least for a good chunk of this demo, the 2nd one is playable only during one map with tons of tomes, handaxes and javelins and comes with the longbow as well as a good skill (Don't remember the name, unfortunately), and the 3rd one comes with a skill that increases damages against a certain type of unit that will appears frequently in the following chapters. I don't know if this'll be enough on the long run, but right now I'm satisfied with how things turned out for archers !
Well yeah, but that doesn't mean they are necessary to the experience. This decision was taken long before I started working on the hack and I could have changed it, but it makes my hack stand out a little more and makes all the different units worthy of a place in your team !
Well, for all it's worth : Also, think of it as a way to make the game more balanced !
Zeldacrafter_Swagg started following 2 game-ruining bugs., [FE8] Terror Of The Forest and Dinar87's first battle sprite gallery!!
[FE8] Terror Of The Forest
Zeldacrafter_Swagg posted a topic in Fan ProjectsHello, you lovely anime-chess players ! My name's Zeldacrafter64, as you've probably already figured out, and I'm here to share my project with you ! Now I know what you might think : "Hey, haven't I seen that title before ?", "Oh, I remember that one, it sucked". Well, after one year spent rotting in the "concept" category, I am proud to announce my little baby is finally ready to be played by the whole world ! I also apologize for how amateurish the concept topic was. I was really a beginner at the time and barely had any idea what to do and where to go. Oh, and while I'm apologizing, let me apologize for my frequent errors. I'm not a native English speaker, so please correct me as often as possible, or else I won't improve (Same goes with my hack, obviously !). Download it here ! (Please remember that right now, this is the first public demo, and until then we've only been three people working on it (And in the latest months, only I did work on it because of my poor direction skills. I'd like constructive criticism, like everybody else, but just remember that this isn't a work made by a full-blown team of long-lasting FE professionals !) I -The Hack's Story II - About the Hack III - Features -10 playable chapters out of 24, from the Prologue to Chapter 8. I'm not that good at designing things gameplay-wise, but I hope you'll enjoy some of them ! -27 playable characters out of 51. Each one coming with a different personality ! It's unlikely you'll like every one of them, but I'm sure you'll find a favorite in no time ! -Only infantry ! On both sides ! Horses, Pegasi and Wyverns don't even exist ! Because some people just want to see the world burn ! -More weapons for some classes, including Assassins and Generals with Bows and Heroes with Lances ! -The most basic bunch of patches you could ever imagine ! -Maybe it's not worth mentioning, but I've also tried some interesting takes on typical FE archetypes. It's not much, I know, but I try my best to make my hack look different, okay ? IV - Screenshots V - Credits : Do you want to be a part of this train wreck I call a project ? Do you have Discord ? Then that's great, 'cause here's the project's discord server : https://discord.gg/vCYEp5E Thanks for your attention, and I hope you'll have fun playing my hack !
Dinar87's first battle sprite gallery!!
Zeldacrafter_Swagg replied to Dinar87's topic in SpritesHey ! Your game looks cool ! It's too bad I suck at Metroidvanias, but pixel-art wise, I really like it !
Blade's Sprites (Critique & Feedback)
Zeldacrafter_Swagg replied to Blade's topic in SpritesHi ! Just a quick remark on the portrait inspired by your profile picture (Because the others don't have any real issue in my opinion) : The pink part of his hairs is... too pink. I'm probably mistaken, but it's supposed to be short, right ? Like Barth's hairs ? If so, it should look a bit more like skin tone. Or get more volume. Right now he looks like he has a weird, pink helmet. But other than that, good job ! Continue like this !
2 game-ruining bugs.
Zeldacrafter_Swagg posted a topic in QuestionsOr more precisely, one game-ruining bug and one immersion-ruining bug. First one might be fairly simple to understand. I don't know. The thing is, I tried modifying battle quotes for FE8, and obviously added some new text (Because man these bosses aren't talkative...), and, well, the result was weird. I tested on two different conversation, and both of them show the boss' portrait twice, with one of them not moving its mouth when talking and the other one woking perfectly, except when his mouth suddenly become Dozla's (EDIT = Oh, wait, it might as well be the playable character's mouth, as he's got Dozla's beard. Oddly enough, the 2nd battle convo didn't do that). But yeah, I know, this is nothing, we know who attacked this boss so we can understand, and we can perfectly play the game without these optional dialogues. And, yeah, I agree (Even though it pains me to see my efforts ruined for something I don't understand), but the next bug... Is horribly painful. For some reason I don't understand, when making one of my characters attack (Or be attacked), the game freeze and make an ear-raping noise. He is the only character in this situation, and I do not understand why. Last time I tested, he worked just fine, and all I did since then was modifying cutscenes in which he didn't even appear, and modifying his battle palette. When launching the 'debug' mode, there's some sort of error message telling me : Could not detarmine the memory to read (Page 03)". (I'm using FEBuilder btw). Please, for the love of god, help me ! I don't know if this'll be helpful, but the character in question is an assassin. And while we're at it, there's another annoying bug. This time, it's nothing compared to the previous one, but they might share the same cause. There are two characters, a recruit and a female myrmidon, who ALWAYS make their ranged animation, even if they don't have any ranged weapon. Additionally, during the combat animation, neither of them (or the enemy) are shown losing their HP. It doesn't sound like it, but it's really, really frustrating. This time however, the bug was here since the beginning, so I don't know what caused it... Anyways, thanks for reading, and please, please, please help me out ! These bugs are really ruining my hack !
NES styled characters!
Zeldacrafter_Swagg replied to 1% Critical Hit's topic in SpritesWoah, Gonzalez, Batta, Dorothy and Felicia all look gorgeous ! I'm a little more unsure about Gheb. His face artwork is right, but his whole body... It doesn't fit. Considering Haar, it's his pose that looks awkward. Like he's sitting without a chair. Other than that, I'd really like to compliment you on your work, because all the others are really great ! I love how you still manage to give them personality despite your limitations, and also put references to their supports (Like Gonzalez's flower)
[FE8] Terror Of The Forest
Zeldacrafter_Swagg replied to Zeldacrafter_Swagg's topic in ConceptsThat's a good idea ! But I don't use discord this much, this I hadn't thought about it 'till now. Here it is (I'll edit the OP later) : https://discord.gg/2FxRYu Well, yeah, we can share map making ideas/critiques if you want ! That'd be a great way of improving our skills ! And I'm happy to know someone would like to test my game ! I just want to finish the six first chapters before releasing a demo.... Ugh, that's long... Also, I got a few problems. First off, there's a cutscene that stays blocked after the camera switch to the boss. The game doesn't freeze, it just... loops. Unless I skip the custscene, once again. Here's the event editor, if someone can do something about it : Second, there's a character, a female myrmidon, that seems really buggy. Like, everything is fine as long as she doesn't attack anyone. She deals normal damages according to her stats, but always play the ranged animation (From the runesword) and the enemy's HP bar doesn't go down during combat, instead, it just get as it should be AFTER the animation ended. Apart from that, everything seems more-or-less good to go. If anyone can please try to figure out what cause these two bugs, I'd really, really, really appreciate it !
