The Jewish Immigrants Who Helped the U.S. Take on NazisRoundup
tags: Nazis, immigration, Jewish Immigrants
Shortly after the U.S. 3rd Army liberated the Buchenwald concentration camp in April 1945, a 27-year-old intelligence officer named Albert Rosenbergbegan gathering evidence of the atrocities committed there, horrors that would become a keystone of coming war crimes trials and the voluminous literature documenting Nazi wickedness. Lieutenant Rosenberg was no ordinary GI. He was a Jew born in Germany who, in 1937, had left his home country for the United States after becoming the target of Nazi violence. He'd been drafted into the Army in 1942, becoming one of the 2,000 or so young Jewish German exiles deployed as interrogators and spies against their erstwhile countrymen.
Rosenberg, a native German speaker who was also fluent in English and French, made a powerful impression on French resistance fighter Jorge Semprún, one of the Buchenwald survivors who helped interpret the camp's infernal workings. Rosenberg was a "thin, gangly intellectual with a sad and piercing gaze," Semprún would recall years later. "He had become an American to bear arms, to make war on Nazism. To make war on his own country. By becoming an American, he had chosen the universality of the democratic cause, an abstraction that could not become reality until his country had been defeated."
In late 1942, the Army decided to create a special program to make use of the émigrés' familiarity with Germany and its language—bright and bilingual, and highly motivated, they were well equipped to extract secrets from German POWs. After being plucked from other units, the men were hastily naturalized, trained in interrogation and propaganda techniques, shipped off to England and attached in small units to the combat forces that invaded Normandy and subsequently defeated and occupied their former homeland. They provided roughly two-thirds of the human intelligence used in the fight against Nazi Germany, according to an official estimate quoted in Sons and Soldiers, military historian Bruce Henderson's sparkling new account of these émigré-fighters.
These newly hatched Americans trained mostly at Fort Ritchie, a mountain base near Hagerstown, Maryland, that was unconventional in every way. "The soldiers, moving about with a thoroughly unmartial gait, conversing in languages never heard in the Appalachians, might have been taken for Central European vacationers at a spa, gossiping about their cures," Henderson quotes one émigré as saying. Though the recruits learned how to use rifles and march and drill, and occasionally took long forays into the woods—they frequently got lost and were rescued by puzzled farmers—the bulk of their eight-week training courses consisted of learning German military structures and other information crucial for extracting secrets from captive Wehrmacht soldiers.
The "Ritchie Boys," as they would become known, employed guile and smarts to glean insights from the POWs while respecting the Geneva Accords. They learned how to distinguish between soldiers with greater or lesser adherence to Nazi ideals; to use bits of intelligence picked up from one soldier to present themselves to a different detainee as all-seeing, making the soldiers feel hopeless about withholding information. One tactic was to present unhelpful POWs with the false impression that they would be shipped to much-feared Russian POW camps if they failed to cooperate. But notably, the émigré soldiers never used waterboarding, electric shock or other "enhanced techniques." In itself, this was a remarkable fact given the horrible casualties they saw inflicted on their comrades daily, as well as their own deeply personal motivations for seeking revenge on the Germans, who had persecuted and murdered their families and forced them into exile in the first place. They fervently believed that stooping to torture would render them no better than the Nazis. ...

Psychic Sterling Sinclair, Alien Interview, Memory, Chance and Auracatures, June 5, 2013 – "IMAGINE"
Psychic Sterling Sinclair, Alien Interview, Memory, Chance and Auracatures, June 5, 2013 – "IMAGINE"
In Alien Interview, it is a paramount concern of the alien to free from earth "her" own people or people related to her. If they cannot be freed, then the concern moves to bettering their lives while on earth. She is acting like a human rights activist fighting for the improvement prison conditions. What is noticeably missed is that "she" does not explain the relationship function of eternal spirits. Was the nurse herself a close relative to her? Was that the reason for the alleged crash? Was that the reason for the nurse's ability to understand the alien? Was this left ambiguous because it was essential for the nurse's safety? Are we to believe that the alien's telepathic communication with the nurse was restricted to the conversations in the room (the ones recorded and revealed in Alien Interview)?
Within the Universal Construct, nothing is left to chance. The continuous learning nature of the construct design is ordered in such a way that nothing gets lost. The alien to accidentally crash is impossible if the alien understood program as well as it appeared she did. The alien, purposely brought and left a ship and bodies (including her doll body). She may not have been able to vanquish the amnesia program that trapped her people but she was able boost the knowledge of the people who gained access to her offerings. She came and stayed and then left, all as planned.
Not being blinded by the amnesia program, the alien was fully aware of what she was doing at all times. She already knew how the future would turn out. She appeared to be a victim of an unfortunate crash, but she was the orchestrator of a mission/game whereby she was in charge, not the nurse nor the military. So, why the nurse?
The language program that the alien was using was a program that the nurse's spirit had written into it. Although the nurse initially claimed to be surprised, it was still natural to her. The alien's requirement to sort out English was in itself a farce. She was not learning English, she was framing her language and information within the boundaries of the people would be listening. The fragile program of English suffers from the inflictions of dialectic variations further infringed by reading and comprehension levels. English was not the problem, the intellectual-linguistic level of the people to who she was speaking was of concern.
The alien was not speaking to the nurse in English, she was speaking to the nurse by using their mutually understood language program. The words that were translated by the nurse represented a fraction of the information downloaded. The limitations of English translation were not by chance either. The program by which the nurse and alien used was one that filtered out the need to know information. The risk of the nurse transcribing, "I love you my sister. I have been searching for you. Now we have found each other. I will never leave you now" would have been too dangerous for the nurse. If an alien could inhabit the doll body, then why could it not inhabit the nurse's body too? That question was important to avoid. If reading between the lines, the sentiment of this relationship is quite obvious.
What isn't written clearly is the alien's other purpose of her offerings. She did not provide new information, new concepts or new science and technology – she provided enough to open memory channels. It was found that the amnesia program could not be defeated from outside the amnesia program. The program can only be defeated from within it. The alien provided no new information to anyone. She provided what was needed for the people to remember – not learn. By remembering, the amnesia program is broken down and progressively become ineffective. If one person remembers, it affects the entire program. The progressive nature of defeating the amnesia program by triggering memory within the cloud of the amnesia program is the nature of freeing the minds of people on earth.
The Auracature process is not a "psychic" information gathering process but rather a remembering process because the Auracatures themselves are recognizable and relatable program codes. The programs and the accompanied languages speak to and from the spirit of the person or situation. By triggering the remembering, no matter how small or brief, the amnesia program loses more of its control and its amnesia effectiveness upon the people of earth.
Auracatures have the ability to inspire communication with the dead, energy patterns, universal knowledge constructs and such because they are not governed by the amnesia program.
I am often asked, "How do you get your information? Where does it come from? What spirit do you call upon?" The answer to these questions is, Auractures come from the universal construct and the spirit. The quantity and quality of information is directly related to the client's/subject's/spirit's openness to that information, the extent of the amnesia, the ability to understand and the willingness to remember. As remembering is generated within the client/spirit – the client/spirit communicates with itself and the universal construct. The Auracature process is designed to aid the movement forward at the spirit level. Through the communion of spirits through memory enhancement, the memory of the spirit and the mind is further freed – self-identification is opened to the self and its spirit.
Memory is everything.
Without memory of life as a spirit within the universal construct, the reality before each of us is blinded and we remain trapped within the oppressive amnesia program.
Like the nurse, it may seem odd that you can hear and think in ways that you cannot explain, but as memory is regained, so is your ability to understand your place within the universal construct. One step at a time may seem slow, but that one step results in seemingly unlimited steps forward for all the people suffering from amnesia.
Imagine the possibilities if you regained your memory in its entirety?
Imagine being awake.

Mix yaw gyro output into heli main motor - possible?
December 01, 2016, 09:37:43 am »
Hi all,
maybe this is complete nonsense, but I have this idea since while but I am not deep enough in LP to acutally try it:
To reduce workload of the tail servo on a heli, could one not mix a bit of the yaw gyro feedback into the main motor, just a little "D" or such.
Result would be that the torque of the main rotor is modified a bit (within a small range, of course) and could handle small tail corrections.
Something similar is done in CD-players' track control: The laser is fine-adjusted by a magnetically moved lens, the coarse adjustment is done via the track motor. In the helicopter case, the main motor torque would do the fine, the tail servo would do the coarse work.
The ESC would have to be a rapid one (it is in my heli, anyway), and it would not be ran in gov mode.
The goal would be to reduce the average overall activity of the tail servo, of course.
Any thoughts?
Helis rule

Interesting question there. I use a governors on my 250s to make sure that the headspeed stays constant.
Correct me if I am wrong here:
Variables for the tail servo are inner loop (TX inputs) and outer loop (wind and heli torque).
And you are right. There is nothing in CC3D that helps with tail mix or pre-compensation.
Lowering the headspeed when the load is heavy (to the tail servo):
How could it be done quickly? Would it help the tail make a large change? And when that change is done the headspeed would try to come back to optimal (how?) and necessitate more corrections--by the pilot and/or CC3D for both pitch* and yaw
Raising the headspeed when the load is heavy:
Again how will it be fast? And the tail servo might tend to overcompensate because the tail will spin faster, too. Will it go into a loop that needs it's own PID? And when the headspeed returns (how again?) back to the desired speed it will need some correction.
Lowering headspeed with light loads might leave the motor unprepared for a sudden pitch* increase. Raising it with light loads might work but be hard to fly.
I use 'tail mixing' in my TX, a DX6, and have 42% selected at full pitch (pos or neg) to compensate. Linear tail curve for me with 21% correction at 50% pitch. Since those mix numbers are surprisingly high I am wondering how much throttle change would be needed to help the tail servo.
Tail mixing by the TX gives a 'heads up' on the coming load to the tail for pitch changes. I have counterweighted (Chinese weights) tail grips to lessen the load considerably on the tail servo.
*pitch here means total pitch. Not the pitch in 'pitch and roll' as CC3D defines it.
Happy Landings!

Well, My thinking was that a very minor speed change on the main rotor (say, +-2%) will not change thrust a lot.
But it may be enough to introduce a bit of momentary torque to the vehicle to correct little tail movements.
As soon as the +-2% correction range is used up, the tail servo would have to care for the rest.
My thinking was that all the very little tail servo corrections (that take place on one place of its potentiometer) could be reduced a bit (maybe 50%)....
Acutally, my tail servo gets hand warm in very moderate hovering/cruising with no visual oscillations.
As said above, the idea could be complete nonsense...
Helis rule

I see what you are saying.
And since I must correct 42% tail mix do you think that you could get a meaningful change of headspeed without upsetting pitch and responsiveness? And how fast could headspeed/thrust react?
I believe the larger force wanting to rotate my helis counter clockwise is from blade pitch not headspeed.
Try increasing throttle suddenly without any pitch change. Just program a flat zero pitch curve to make that test. I will try that test when I return later today.
As for pitch's influence on torque: with 0% tail compensation I get about 90 degrees of yaw left in a pitch pump. Old time heli pilots learned to add right yaw with pitch manually. Move the stick at an angle instead of straight up. That works too.
Pre-comp similar to Beastx would start tail servo corrections with the pitch stick. It would probably be much easier to implement. CC3D could use that in my opinion but since quads don't need this the programmers don't care.
Tail servo heat: CC3D says to match the output frequency to your servos per manufacturer's specs.
Channel 4 on output page if I remember correctly. I burned up a CC25a ESC and a tail servo fooling with the output frequencies so I just set everything to 50hz. My human reaction times are much slower so I don't notice the difference between 330 and 50hz.
I have a couple of Eflite DS76t tail servos that heat up a lot no matter what frequency I use. And that is before I spool up! I can't use them. HOT. 'Hand warm' would be my best friend because I really like those servos because they are 7 grams, fast and powerful enough for my 250 helis.
Happy Landings!

In conjunction to this we will be presenting precise Vedic verification of the Supreme Lord Krishna's divine incarnations as evidence confirming His supreme position. In Bhagavad-Gita, chapter 10, verse 20, the Supreme Lord reveals that He manifests as the immortal soul within each and every living entity. No where else within any other religious scripture is this information available. Our purpose is to make the eternal knowledge of Bhagavad-Gita freely available to everyone all over the Earth.
Note: If you are planning on purchasing your own copy of the Bhagavad Gītā for serious spiritual study, I highly recommend the translation from Sanskrit to English with commentaries and notes, made by Swami Nikhilananda, founder of the Ramakrishna-Vivekananda Center of New York. His translation is available in both hardcover and paperback.
The Upanishads collectively is another piece of classic literature in Hindu mysticism. It is a compilation of detailed mystical teachings and wisdoms that are presented in story form or discourses. Active links are provided for each of the available publications that you can access for free. Your understanding of Hindu mysticism is not complete without the Upanishads.

The Gospel of John
The movie The Gospel of John is a beautiful film depicting the ministry and teachings of Yeshua or Jesus of Nazareth based on the Gospel According to St. John. Released in 2003, it is probably the best movie ever produced of its genre about the life and teachings of Yeshua/Jesus the Christ. du m
The movie is a faithful portrayal of the Gospel According to St. John. It is a three-hour epic film (there is a shorter abridged version) that follows John's Gospel faithfully and precisely, without additions to the story coming from other Gospel accounts, nor the omission of intricate or controversial passages arising from the Gospel's gnostic flavor. It has been adapted for the screen on a word-for-word basis from the American Bible Society's Good News Bible translation. Of the four canonical gospels in the New Testament, John's Gospel is best known for its mystical content, where you find the series of "I am…" declarations made by the Christ.
I like this film's portrayal of Yeshua very much. You see him smile and laugh; you see him furious and angry. You will see the beauty of his soul, the irresistible appeal of his manhood, and the affable love that outlines his face. This is the Yeshua who was the rabbi-mystic of the Gospel books. This is the Yeshua I have come to know, honor, and love as my spiritual teacher.
When you watch the movie, note the excellent portrayals and the nuanced scenes depicting Yeshua recruiting his apostles, Yeshua and his mother at the Cana wedding (probably his own wedding), Nicodemus' late night private tutorial session with him, the astounding encounter between him and the gutsy Samaritan woman at the well (an outstanding Gospel paradigm for the contemplation process), Yeshua's nurturing home life with his full-blood brothers, the miracles and healings he performed, his affinity to the Bethany sisters Martha and Mary and their brother Lazarus, and his highly misunderstood relationship with Mary the Magdalene whose characterization undergoes a transformation from her introduction in the movie as a bright orange dressed party-lover to her later subdued personality as a spiritual devotee in dark colored clothing.
Note that this is the only "Jesus movie" wherein the same Mary (the Magdalene) sits with the twelve male apostles at the last supper as the only female in their company and is subsequently shown as the only female in Yeshua's entourage at the Gethsemani garden. It shows how accepted and integral Mary was in the inner circle of Yeshua's students and disciples, a matter made expressly evident in some of the Gnostic gospels.
Now, immerse yourself in the engaging, delightful experience of this exceptional movie.

"Banned from the Bible" Series
This History Channel documentary extensively presents the problems with the existing canonical books of the Judeo-Christian religions. The books of the Bible were so narrowed down to include only those writings that served the purpose of establishing and maintaining a preferred set of dogmatic beliefs and teachings, to the exclusion of the more mystical schools of the Christian teaching. Thus did the institutionalized Christian church and clergy dilute and pervert the purity of the original teachings rooted in a nondualistic mysticism.
Watch the videos in this Banned from the Bible series to learn about the scripture books that were so excluded from the official Canon, starting with the first documentary in the series (below).
A subsequent documentary titled Banned from the Bible: Secrets of the Apostles (video below) followed the first documentary.
Then The History Channel produced a fuller documentary, Banned from the Bible II as a complete sequel to the original Banned from the Bible documentary. Here is that final sequel.
Christianity: The First Two Thousand Years
Here is an excellent documentary about the historical rise of Christianity as a religion during the last two thousand years. The documentary comes in two parts.

The Kabbalistic Tradition
Mysticism in the Jewish religion (Judaism) has its roots in the Kabbalah (Hebrew: קַבָּלָה, literally "parallel/corresponding," or "received tradition").
The following video documentary is a good introduction to Kabbalah. [Acknowledgment to Raphael Panameno for posting the video on YouTube.]

The Freedom Movie 2: A Spiritual Awakening
The Freedom Movie 2: A Spiritual Awakening is a documentary about experiencing enlightenment by becoming aware of the truth of being. It can serve as a good reviewer of the mystical principles and teachings we have been presenting here in our site. I recommend this documentary as an effective tool for pulling together and synthesizing all that you have thus learned about the mystical life.
Buddhism and the Buddha
Watch the PBS film documentary below, The Buddha, about the life and the teachings of the Buddha. The documentary is made by director, writer, and cinematographer David Grubin; it is narrated by actor Richard Gere. The video is an engaging, well-made, highly informative introduction to Buddhism and its teachings.

The Berzin Archives
The Buddhist Archives of Dr. Alexander Berzin is a rich treasure trove of information and materials for learning Tibetan Buddhism. It is a collection of translations and teachings by Dr. Alexander Berzin primarily on the Mahayana and Vajrayana traditions of Tibetan Buddhism. Covering the areas of sutra, tantra, Kalachakra, dzogchen, and mahamudra meditation, the Archives presents material from all five Tibetan traditions: Nyingma, Sakya, Kagyu, Gelug, and Bon, as well as comparisons with Theravada Buddhism and Islam. Also featured are Tibetan astrology and medicine, Shambhala, and Buddhist history. Dzogchen and mahamudra are the finest forms and expressions of Tibetan Buddhist mysticism. Click the image below to go to The Berzin Archives site.
Zen Buddhism
As Buddhism moved eastward from India passing through the Tibetan Himalayas and China and the Korean peninsula, it reached its last Asian stop, Japan, in the unique Buddhist style we know and recognize today as Zen Buddhism. Zen bears the unmistakable influence of Ch'an Buddhism, the Buddhist style that took root in China where Buddhism met and came to be influenced by Taoism, the mysticism indigenous to China. There are Buddhist scholars today who believe that Zen Buddhism is really Ch'an Buddhism cloaked merely by the influence of Japanese culture when Buddhism reached the shores of Japan.

The Sōtō Zen school or Sōtō-shū (曹洞宗) is the largest of the three traditional sects or schools of Zen in Japanese Buddhism, the others being Rinzai-shū (臨済宗) and Ōbaku-shū (黄檗宗).
Here is a movie about the life of Zen teacher Dōgen Zenji, a favorite of mine. Master Dōgen is a founder of the Sōtō school of Zen in Japan. There is an online audiobook copy of The Essential Dōgen, an authoritative compendium of Dōgen's teachings.

The Bible's Buried Secrets
Here is another highly interesting and truly informative NOVA video by PBS, the documentary The Bible's Buried Secrets. With the aid of biblical archaeology, the documentary presents how the Torah, the first five books of the Old Testament Bible, came into existence as written scripture. It is a fascinating story of how certain then-existing Canaanite inhabitants reinvented themselves culturally, socially, economically and religiously into the distinctive Israelites we know of biblically as being the source of the Abrahamic faiths. The documentary provides a historical timeline reconstruction based on the archaeology. It also tells us the origins of the Hebrew God's personal name, Yahweh, and reveals the startling discovery that Yahweh originally had a female consort (goddess). The Old Testament will never be the same to you after seeing this excellent documentary (a 13-part video at YouTube.com). Do not miss this documentary.
A History of God
A History of God is an excellent documentary based on British author Karen Armstrong's best-selling book "A History of God." Learn how the religious understanding of God developed and unfolded in the course of human civilization and history.

Through the Wormhole: "Is There a Creator?"
The following video is the episode titled Is There a Creator? from the science program series Through the Wormhole, hosted by actor Morgan Freeman. It will stimulate your mind into thinking about how the episode's various scientific conjectures approximate the spiritual teachings on mystical reality.
The Pyramid Code
The Pyramid Code is a made-for-television documentary series of five (5) episodes that explores the pyramid fields and ancient temples in Egypt, as well as ancient megalithic sites around the world, looking for clues to matriarchal consciousness, ancient knowledge and sophisticated technology in a Golden Age. The series is based on the extensive research done in 25 trips to Egypt and 51 other countries around the world by Dr. Carmen Boulter formerly from the Graduate Division of Educational Research at the University of Calgary in Canada. (Watch the documentary below.)
The Pyramid Code features interviews with prominent scholars and authors in multi-disciplinary fields: geology, physics, astrophysics, archaeology, biological engineering, magnetic field theory, hieroglyphics, and Egyptology. I highly recommend this relevant and wonderful documentary. (One of the five episodes is featured in my post "The 9th of March, 2011: The Final Phase of Evolving Human Consciousness".)
The Pharmacratic Inquisition
The Pharmacratic Inquisition is a documentary (video below) produced by Gnostic Media. The documentary is a DVD companion for the book titled Astrotheology & Shamanism: Christianity's Pagan Roots (A Revolutionary Reinterpretation of the Evidence) by Jan Irvin and Andrew Rutajit. It presents the thesis that shamanism is the root of the Christian religion's beliefs and practices, and it does so from the perspective of gnosticism and the mystery or wisdom schools. The documentary may be open to much debate, but it does a nice job of shaking off the crust from our religious belief systems.

Classy Crafts
4 easy DIY school supplies to make at home
By Madison Rutherford
The smell of fresh pink erasers and clean white binder paper is in the air, which can only mean one thing – the first day of school is fast approaching. While you may have to hit Staples or Target for standard stuff like highlighters and pencils, there are plenty of supplies you can make at home for cheap. These four personalized DIY ideas will keep the environment and your pocketbook happy – and the kids will love having one-of-a-kind accessories. Now, line the kitchen table with newspaper – it's time to get crafty!
Paper Bag Textbook Covers
Use brown paper grocery bags (Trader Joe's has good ones) to protect your textbooks, and add a personal touch by decorating the bag with Sharpie doodles. Prepare your paper bag by cutting it open and removing the bottom and handles. Open your textbook and place it flat on the dissected paper bag (it should look like a giant piece of brown paper) and cut around the book, leaving about two inches of paper bag above the book and three inches on each side. Center the book and create creases along the top and bottom edges (like you are wrapping a gift). Fold and tape any excess paper in place. Then use different colored Sharpies to personalize your cover with doodles, word art or patterns.
Soda Box Pencil Cases
The kids will love this one because it will most likely involve drinking soda; it requires an empty soda box, a pencil, scissors, a ruler, a scoring tool (like a butter knife or bent paper clip), tape and self-adhesive Velcro strips (which can be found at Michaels or Home Depot). You will also need to print out a template, which can be easily found by Googling "soda box pencil case template." Before you start, make sure the template is long enough for your pencils. Then, open the soda box and flatten it out. Cut out the template and place it on top of the flattened soda box. Use a pencil to trace onto the cardboard around the edges of the template. Mark the score lines on the cardboard where indicated on the template; use a ruler to make a straight line. Then, run your scoring tool along the line and fold to form your pencil case. Use tape to secure the bottom and sides. Finally, fasten the self-adhesive Velcro strips to the inside of the top flap and the front of the case; make sure they are aligned before attaching.
Duct Tape Locker Pockets
Here is another clever storage concept that can be created with common household items. You will need patterned duct tape, fabric, cardboard, an X-Acto knife (parental supervision recommended) and extra-strong adhesive magnetic strips. Begin by cutting your cardboard into the preferred size with your X-Acto knife (make sure to measure the locker ahead of time so you know it will fit) and cover both sides with duct tape. Find a piece of fabric that complements your duct tape and is just big enough to form a pocket and wrap around the back of the cardboard. Fold the excess fabric on the bottom to the back and duct tape it to the base to form the bottom of the pocket. Duct tape the upper sides to the back of the base, making sure your pocket has your desired depth. Attach the magnetic strips to the back of the cardboard (we recommend four large strips so the pocket will stay in place).
Chunky Tassel Bookmarks
Here's a fun and funky way to ensure your kids won't ruin their textbooks by dog-earing the pages – make your own bookmark! You'll need a ball of yarn, scissors, a piece of cardboard, a ruler, a pencil, cardstock, Mod Podge, a foam brush and a hole punch. To create the tassel, wrap a piece of yarn around a small piece of cardboard until you've reached the desired thickness (we recommend wrapping it around about 50 times). Slide a small piece of yarn under the yarn bundled around the cardboard, then double-knot it at the top. Cut all the yarn on the opposite side, tightly double-knotting a piece of yarn near the top to make the "head" of the tassel. Tightly double-knot another piece of yarn underneath the previous piece and cut off all uneven ends. To create the bookmark, cut out a 4.5 x 6.5-inch piece of cardstock. Fold the bookmark lengthwise and apply a thin layer of Mod Podge with the foam brush on the inside of the cardstock, fold again and let dry. Use the hole punch to punch a hole about half an inch from the top of the bookmark and double-knot the tassel through the hole.

Description Edit
Three types of turrets can be encountered during gameplay.
- Kett Turret - Kett construct that is capable of firing at long range.
- Outlaw Turret - Mounted gun turret capable of 360-degree rotation and long-range attacks.
- Remnant Turret - Remnant construct that is capable of firing blasts of plasma at long range.
Capabilities Edit
Offensive Edit
Turrets can fire short, medium, and long distances. Turrets can rotate 360-degrees and will continue firing until threats are removed or the turret is destroyed.
Defensive Edit
Turrets have no defensive systems other than deadly heavy firepower and high health.
Tactics Edit
Turrets of any faction are able to target the squad from any distance, hit hard, and can be a relentless foe when encountered.
- While these can be tough foes, turrets are stationary, can only fire in a straight line of sight, and are only able to attack one target at a time.
- Hiding behind cover is recommended while at distance.
- Keep the squad spread out to give three potential targets instead of a grouped single target for the turret to fire at.
In some instances it is possible to hack turrets using a console to turn them "friendly" to attack enemies. Most instances of this hacking are Remnant turrets but other types can be hacked. Friendly turrets will attack enemies just as relentlessly as they would attack the squad until enemies are defeated or the turrets are destroyed.

Or so the article says. I have noticed that I have trouble remembering authors names when I read an eBook. I believe it is because the title and name aren't staring me in the eye from every page I read like in a paperback. I wish there was a way to change that; for my own reading and for the books I write.

DALLAS — Federal officers with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement's (ICE) Enforcement and Removal Operations (ERO) arrested 75 criminal aliens and immigration violators in North Texas and Oklahoma during a four-day enforcement action, which ended Thursday.
Aliens arrested during this operation are from the following seven countries: Mexico (58), Guatemala (6), Honduras (6), El Salvador (2), Kenya (1), Ecuador (1) and Vietnam (1).
Most of the aliens targeted by ERO deportation officers during this operation had prior criminal histories that included convictions for the following crimes: drug possession, assault, dangerous drugs, illegal entry, larceny, marijuana possession, possessing a weapon, failure to identify and identity theft.
The following are criminal summaries of four offenders arrested in North Texas and Oklahoma during this operation:
- June 17 — ICE officers arrested a Honduran man who was arrested for first-degree rape of a minor child. He remains in ICE custody pending removal proceedings.
- June 20 — ICE officers arrested a Mexican man who was convicted of two counts of possession of intent to deliver a controlled substance and sentenced to 10 years confinement. He remains in ICE custody pending removal proceedings.
The Dallas area of responsibility includes 128 counties in North Texas and Oklahoma.
All of the targets in this operation are amenable to arrest and removal under the U.S. Immigration and Nationality Act.
ICE deportation officers carry out targeted enforcement operations daily nationwide as part of the agency's ongoing efforts to protect the nation, uphold public safety, and protect the integrity of our immigration laws and border controls.
These operations involve existing and established Fugitive Operations Teams.
During targeted enforcement operations, ICE officers frequently encounter other aliens illegally present in the United States. These aliens are evaluated on a case-by-case basis, and, when appropriate, they are arrested by ICE officers.
Editor's Note: The arrest statistics provided in this news release represent preliminary data that has been manually reported to ICE headquarters. Official numbers can vary slightly from preliminary data.

Founded in 2017, NONA is a brand by Anona van der Linde. Based in Antwerp, BE.
We make minimalist bags for modern day life. Every bag is designed in our atelier in Antwerp, Belgium. Our design process happens very organically; and in this process we try to listen to our customers needs and get them involved. We don't work with seasonal collections because we strongly believe in timeless items, made for women who know and own their style. We're building a standard collection of modern classics; these will continuously be released in new, small quantity colors. New designs will be added to this collection; old designs will be archived; and every so often we'll drop a design in a limited edition color.
'I like it when a bag becomes an extension of my body - as if it's part of me. That's why I prefer a no-fuss design, just some nice details and beautiful raw leather. A bag should blend in with the rest of you, as if it's a piece of clothing.'
Slow fashion
We choose to work non-seasonal and only produce our bags in small quantities. We stand for timeless, good quality bags - at an honest price. We design our bags this way because we want them to be worn (a lot!) and to be loved. We feel that it's very important and necessary for everybody to take responsibility towards a sustainable future and think about what you buy, how much you buy, where it comes from and how it's been made.
Working ethically is something that is on the top of our minds. We started out making all the bags in our own atelier in Antwerp; on a made to order basis. This way, we only made what was necessary and didn't have any leftover stock. Because the brand is growing, we've now teamed up with a small production company in Barcelona, Spain. Every single one of our bags is handcrafted in a small scale atelier, under good working conditions. The *limited edition* pieces are all made in our own atelier in Antwerp.
We chose Spain because they have a rich history in leatherwork. Our leather is also sourced in the area of Barcelona, Spain. This way we can minimize transportation costs and we keep all our material sourcing and production within Europe.
We don't want any of our leather and other materials to go to waste - we try to be very conscious about this and only buy and use what is necessary. We personally pack and ship all our items in eco-friendly paper and carton - no plastic!
We hope that when you buy a NONA bag, you made a mindful decision. You know that your bag has been made with love.
For questions about our brand feel free to contact us, we will be happy to answer them! firstname.lastname@example.com

This was the second Photo 101 I have taken part in. I really enjoyed it last year so I was keen to get involved again. However, I didn't get off to the best start. I didn't check my mails for a couple of days and missed the beginning! Fortunately it wasn't too late to catch up. It finished about a month ago, but thanks to more tedious reasons I haven't managed to complete my wrap-up post until now.
Similarities to my Photo 101 last year:
- Shot with Fuji X100T
- Took new pictures for each theme, using the themes as prompts (a self-imposed "rule" – I wanted to shoot new pictures rather than use old ones)
- Managed to finish in spite of needing to play catch-up several times
Differences to my Photo 101 last year:
- It felt very different shooting this project in March (it was June last year). The days were shorter, Spring had barely begun and it was cold with little foliage around
- I looked up the prompts ahead of time so that I could prepare a little more
- I had less "free" lunchtimes (to shoot) so I sometimes took detours on my way to the office to get my shot for the day, which was fun
My favourite themes were street, bliss, pop, moment and scale. Like last time, I really enjoyed responding to the themes; thinking of a creative response, going out and shooting with intention.
This course reinforced that it is possible to shoot more – it just takes a bit of planning and a bit of purpose. Of course, any personal project can do that which is something I must remember! Shooting to a "brief" definitely focusses the mind.
Blogging101 and Photo101 courses seem to run on a regular basis – don't hesitate to take part if you're considering it. It takes some effort but the inspiration and support are very rewarding. Plus, you never know what it will spark for you. Enjoy!
Here are some of my favourite shots:
Thanks for reading!

Springfield is in the dead center, having the highest accumulation amount (12.9 inches).
Last night it stormed for hours as a very thin line of storms trained across the city from southwest to northeast. I took this radar shot about midnight last night, but it was roughly the same picture since about 8:00 PM.
And we've got more storms on the way.

I LOVE southern food. My mom and I travel to Myrtle Beach once a year, half for the beach, half for the food. Only God knows what would happen to me if I ate biscuits and gravy for breakfast every morning, but for a week? I'll risk it.
Speaking of being risky, The Southerner's Cookbook: Recipes, Wisdom, and Stories is sitting on my kitchen counter right now. Instructions on how to make biscuits and gravy AND fried chicken right in my home? That is dangerous. I can't really stomach the whole pork situation yet, but I have loved attempting the baked goods and fried pickle chips. There's an entire section devoted to chicken that has my name all over it. But as a girl who loves to read (yes, even though I'm a Yankee), the essays are what make this cookbook special.

April 30, 1927 – March 5, 2019
Catherine Joan Potter ~ 1927 – 2019 ~ "Mom has died on earth, but is alive in heaven."
Long time resident and retired BC Telephone employee Catherine Joan Potter (nee Leake) died Tuesday, March 5, 2019 at home. Joan was born April 30, 1927 on her parents farm at Aylsbury, Saskatchewan.
Joan was predeceased by husband Robert (Bob), son Lee and brother Doug Leake. She is survived by her sons Ross (Sue) and Vance (Sharon), granddaughter Anneka Erikson (Shayne), grandson Robert, great-granddaughters Alexandra and Aurelia, great-grandson Sterling and sister Doris Brooke, as well as, many family members.
In the early 1930's the family was forced to leave the farm in Aylsbury due to the "dirty 30's" drought, and relocate to Renown, Saskatchewan in hopes of a better life. Then in 1937 the family moved to Oliver, BC where Joan stayed for the remainder of her life.
Growing up she was a Brownie, a Girl Guide and a Girl Guide leader.
She married Robert (Bob) Potter in 1948 and raised 3 boys, a dog and numerous cats on the family orchard.
Joan worked for BC Tel. for 30 years. She started as a telephone operator and after one year she was promoted to chief operator and commercial representative. Later she worked in the commercial office, the Radio Department and finally at the Install and Repair Department.
Joan supported her family, no matter what, they were the priority in her life. She may not have been directly involved in or at the forefront of an organization or group, but she was always their supporting and doing what ever needed to be done, especially if it involved her husband or children.
Her favourite pastimes included square dancing, reading and keeping her yard in tip top shape. She was a great supporter of the CNIB, Hospice and the Heart and Stroke foundation. Joan was a devout Christian, she made everyone feel important and always made time for you. You could not walk away from her without feeling a little bit better about life or yourself.
A service will be held in Oliver on Saturday, March 23, 2019 at 11 am in the Oliver Community Centre, with lunch to follow.
In lieu of flowers, donations to the following would be appreciated:

6 Reasons Why You Need a Side Gig
Ryan and Alex Duo Life started as a side gig. Ryan began working on our beginnings back in 2014 after working a full day as an engineer. Putting in around 30-minutes of work a day yielded about $7,000 earnings during the first year. We decided to take the plunge and go full-time four years later.
Even if we never transitioned our side hustle to a full-time job, we have learned incredible amounts and built new skills for ourselves in the process. Here are six reasons why you need a side gig.
6 reasons why you need a side gig
1. Wages are Falling
While working my engineering job at a Fortune 1000, multi-billion dollar company, my boss told our team that we'd be lucky to get a 2% raise. Well, guess what? The average annual US inflation rate between 2010 and 2017 was 1.7%. I was barely breaking even as an engineer.
For hourly wage earners, the future is even dimmer. A study by the United States Department of Labor shows that wages are falling for hourly workers when adjusted for inflation.
So, how are we doing now? Since we turned our side gig into a full-time job, we have grown our month-to-month earnings by 400%. We have a lot more control over our income since we are paid based on our performance.
2. Control Your Own Fate
According to The Economist, over half of the world's millionaires own their own business. Millionaires are in control of both their financial fate and time. Starting with a side hustle is an excellent way to test the waters for your entrepreneurial ideas.
Also, controlling your own time can't be underrated. Not only does it increase the quality of our lives through flexibility and spontaneity, but we also we have the freedom to make our own choices. Therefore, you can do things when they make sense – not just when bureaucracy tells you to. That is a critical piece of our work hard, play hard formula.
As self-help guru Tim Ferris points out in his book, The 4-Hour Work Week, freeing up time and location makes your money worth 3-10 times more valuable.
3. Security
Another reason why you need a side gig is this millionaire fact: 65% of self-made millionaires have three or more income streams. Since diversifying investment portfolios is good practice, why does no one talk about diversifying income streams? Having multiple income streams doesn't mean you need to own five businesses. Instead, think of ways to leverage your current talents in numerous ways.
Ideally, you want to create passive sources of income (such as publishing one online course but continuing to earn off of it for years). Typically, we are talking about your primary job, side gig, investment portfolio, and asset-derived income – the most substantial contributors as business interests.
Having added sources of income provides security in case anything unexpected happens to your primary job or for unforeseen expenses. At the very least, you need a side hustle for a plan B.
4. The Passion
A side hustle is an opportunity to do what you already love. You may already be doing the work. Sharing with your friends how you've lost weight with a new mindset on how to fuel your body? Posting on Instagram all of the healthy recipes you're cooking up in the kitchen? Gifting homemade scented candles around the holidays?
There are many avenues to make this your side gig. Overcome your analysis paralysis and get started.
For example, you can market your unique skills through affiliate marketing, online craft websites like Etsy, direct sales, or forming partnerships as an influencer on Instagram. With other "gig economy" options like Uber or Turo (a new favorite tool of ours), it is easier than ever to start.
According to the Henley Centre for Leadership in the UK, 25% of adults are already side hustling. Do you want to be stuck in a job you don't love? Our side hustle has allowed us to pursue what we love and slow down time.
5. Become an Expert
Starting your side gig, and turning a passion into a business, pushes you to become better. You'll do research, self-experimentation, and become more creative. For us, simply putting these blog posts together helps us polish our ideas and find new ways to express ourselves.
Over the last six months, we have built our website, grown an email list, studied marketing, managed and integrated social media platforms, and created our business accounting budget.
Update: we're at year two and our business is fully sustaining our travel lifestyle.
None of this would have happened if we hadn't started our side gig. Since the beginning, feels like we've graduated and have a real-world MBA. Thankfully, we've had a lot of support from our business mentors, important influencers in our field, our goal achieving to-do lists, and paid online courses.
MasterClass: Get access to video courses from the world's top experts. Learn to cook from Alice Waters, understand conservation from Jane Goodall, hone your negotiation skills with top hostage negotiator Chris Voss, or take pictures like Jimmy Chin. Read our review or get an all access pass.
6. The Potential
You need a side hustle, and you never know what could happen until you start. We highly recommend watching the movie, Rise of the Entrepreneur, produced by personal development author, Eric Worre (free streaming typically found on Youtube.)
Even if it seems impossible, allow yourself to dream and envision how you and your family could live if you had total financial, location, or time freedom.

For Helena's the New York shows always start off with a trip to Chelsea to the Designers & Agents show. The show for emerging, green and independent designers, this show is small, carefully curated, and brimming with creative designs. We viewed Prairie Underground for Holiday '14, and soaked in all the brilliant energy.
Ella Moss showed us intricately detailed holiday wear in cream, burgundy and black. Lots of beading and mixes of chiffon & knits in sweaters.
We ordered customer favorite line, Nally & Millie for fall. Our lovely rep, Lilian, who is expecting her second baby next month, pulled out soft cozy sweaters, beautiful print dresses, and print skirts.
Ada Collection is debuting new textures, colors and themes for their belt collection. We love the studded wrap belts, and the new embossed leathers. The best find? This (pictured) perfect jean friendly belt! We have been on the search for a long time.
And then....there is Joe's Jeans. Joe's always has a huge selection of new washes and cuts. The booth was brimming with the best new trends, and new takes on their classic core line of skinny jeans, straight-leg and boot cut. A great day of buying for the stores and taking in all the new style trends for the coming months!
