Author(s): Paul Ekman
Using 40 years of groundbreaking research, Paul Ekman explores why and when we become emotional and what happens when we do - the external signs and facial expressions. So much of what we communicate is non-verbal. In this very practical book Paul Ekman helps the reader to observe the underlying, concealed emotions that we can observe in those around us and why our bodies react in the ways they do. Emotions Revealed also helps the reader to identify why they might feel 'overly' emotional in some situations and why some people wear their heart on their sleeve whilst others manage to conceal their feelings, even from those close to them. Chapters include 'when do we get emotional' 'changing what we become emotional about' as well as 'anger' 'fear', 'surprise' and 'happiness'. Most importantly, Emotions Revealed shows how we can apply this understanding to everyday situations to improve our quality of life. First published 2003.
For the upper end of the self-help market. The Peases but also with a scientific look at how the body itself reacts Perfect for the Emotional Intelligence, Men Are From Mars market. How to tell when your partner/lawyer/boss/secondhand car saleman is lieing - it's written on their face! 'Here Paul Ekman, doyen of contemporary emotion researchers, turns to the practical management of emotion in everyday life' NEW SCIENTIST 'There are some fascinating titbits along the way... Ekman can be riveting on the minutae of facial expressions, especially the way that an expression can be observed even when an emotion is being half-felt or suppressed.'

AG Madigan visits SIUE, SSP
ALTON — Illinois Attorney General Lisa Madigan was in Edwardsville and Alton Monday to discuss the bevy of investigations and consumer support programs her office is currently working on at the benefit the state's citizens.
Madigan first met with representatives of Southern Illinois University Edwardsville to spread awareness about a number of financial abuses and scams that target current and former higher education students.
Madigan told the Telegraph that her office has seen an alarming increase of complaints filed about abuses by services that claim to ease the weight of student loan debt, a problem that has sprinted by credit card debt as a major problem country-wide. She said her office is leading an investigation into Navient, formerly known as Sallie Mae, for loan servicing and debt collection abuses.
"Many of the complaints we are receiving are very, very similar to what we were seeing with the mortgage crisis and so we end up with problems on the back-end, not so much people taking out student loans, but people dealing with it on the back-end struggling to repay their loans," Madigan said. "You come out school, you have a significant amount of debt, you don't have a job or a well-paying job, you struggle to make those payments."
Numbers provided by Madigan suggest the problem is one of the larger fiscal issues facing Americans today. According to the Attorney General, 40 million Americans are currently holding $1.2 trillion of outstanding student loan debt. Compounding the issue, Madigan said those in a tenuous debt situation call services that do not offer the full range of options to ease debt and often ask for a payment upfront without following through with a solution.
"The same people that used to go after folks that struggled to make their mortgage payments or credit card payments are now on the airwaves claiming 'we can reduce your student loan debt by half, we can completely eliminate it for free, call now,'" Madigan said. "When you call, instead of it being free, they are asking for very large, upfront payments. The most we have seen was been $1,200."
Madigan suggested those with student loan issues would be better served to visit www.studentaid.ed.gov and using the resources available there.
Madigan's office is also targeting for-profit institutions of higher learning, which she said invest heavily in recruiting and marketing but often deliver little more than a pile of student loan debt and an unaccredited degree that can't provide a well-paying job.
"What they don't tell students, even if they ask, is that they are very poorly accredited and they are as much as 10 times as expensive as going to a local community college that is fully accredited," Madigan said. "I have filed a lawsuit against Westwood (College), which is one of those for-profit colleges and we have a number of ongoing investigations."
Madigan said students of for-profit institutions of higher education account for 10 percent of those with outstanding student loans, but account for 47 percent of the total amount of students that fault on those loans.
The attorney general's trip through southern Illinois also took her to Senior Services Plus where she gave citizens three tips to avoid identity theft.
"To give you an idea of the magnitude of the problem, since 2006, I have helped over 35,000 people in Illinois move over $26 million in unauthorized charges on their credit," Madigan said.
She said setting up transaction alerts on debit cards through a bank is an easy way to track purchases made from an account and also just regularly reading bank statements will aid in prevention of identity theft.
Madigan also said getting a copy of one's credit report, which by federal law is free once a year to citizens, is also a good way to prevent or at least notice identity theft.
Before leaving Alton, Madigan visited the Telegraph and touched on several subjects including her aspirations for higher political office.
"You know what, I greatly appreciate the opportunity to serve as the attorney general here in Illinois. I have a passion for it. I love fighting for people," Madigan said. "I've been very successful in bringing relief to people, I've been very successful in changing laws to make sure that everyday people are better protected. Right now that is my goal and my aspiration to do that for four more years."
As the state's top civil lawyer, Madigan was asked about Madison County's reputation as one of the most litigious in the state and the region.
"America is a litigious place, I think that's the reality of it. I can tell you from my perspective as the state's civil lawyer, sometimes people sue the state and it is legitimate, and often times people sue the state and it's not a legitimate claim," she said. "I think you are going to see that both in the private side as well as the public side. To me, that's always the struggle. You want people to have access to the justice system, but there are certainly people out there that will bring claims that are frivolous claims."
Madigan will hosting a roundtable discussion 10:15 a.m. Tuesday about major consumer scams at the Liberal Arts College Building on the campus of Southwestern Illinois College, Room 2311/2313 2500 Carylyle Ave., Belleville.

We were very busy this weekend. We drove to Wichita Friday night and hungout with the family. Ella got to meet her Uncle Zach for the first time. We called James and Brooke and they came over with Blake. Ella was asleep when they got there, but she woke up so we could have picture time. Blake has gotten so big since we last saw him, he is so cute! I think Brooke and I could wins awards for chunkiest babies! I love all the little rolls.
And of course we had to have the Dads pose...
And Blake and Ella bonded...
I have known James and Brooke since Jefferson Elementary and Trey and them are great friends. It is so funny to me that everyone had kids around the same time. Trey's other best friend Justin Veal and his wife had a baby girl. We haven't met her yet, but hopefully we will soon. It is so cute to see those big guys hold their little babies.
After they left we got Ella ready for bed and she found her feet for the first time! It was so cute. She hasn't really let go of the since. Then she put her foot in her mouth for the first time. I didn't get a picture of that, I wasn't quick enough.
Then it was bath time and Trey's mom had gotten her a cute hooded towel, so of course we had to take more picutres...
Saturday morning we woke up and Trey went to his brother Shane's graduation. Me and Ella didn't go because I didn't think it was a good place for a baby, not very much fun and we can't really play. So, we went to my parent's house and hung out. I love to watch her with them. I have AMAZING parents and Ella is so lucky to have such great grandparents.
My mom has a hard time keeping her eyes open in pictures. You can't count or she knows it's coming and will definetely close her eyes. You just have to randomly snap...my sister took 16 pictures of this exact pose and we got one with her eyes open (sort of).
Ella and I went back to the Calhoun's for Shanes party.
By Sunday we were worn out. Ella specifically. So, we headed home around 2, we usually don't leave that early, but Ella was exhausted because she hadn't napped well. We got home and unpacked and I put Ella on her activity mat so I could put up some things. I came back in the room and she was on her tummy! She had rolled over for the FIRST TIME and I MISSED IT!!! So, I ran to get the video camera, rolled her back to her back and she did it again. This time I saw it and I caught it on tape! Video coming shortly!
Trey and I were talking like now it all starts. Before we know it she will be crawling and walking. My baby girl is growing so fast. You want them to stay a baby forever, but my mom told me it will just get more fun as we go.

I'm upgrading my workstation for doing more work with Vivado.
Currently builds take about 10 minutes even for simple designs. I'd like them to be faster.
I currently have an Intel Core i5-4460. I am upgrading the motherboard and RAM at the same time.
In terms of processor, would anyone be able to suggest a good processor? I am minded to consider the AMD Ryzen 3700X; does anyone have any experience with this? Is it better to have more single-threaded performance or better multi-threaded performance?
So I took the plunge and ordered an AMD Ryzen 3800X
What can I say, as an upgrade from the i5-4460
Before, the build time was 25 minutes for my current design, now it is under 6 minutes. Massive improvement. While synthesis seems only slightly faster (I am guessing it is single or dual threaded only), place and route has improved significantly.
There are likely some other minor improvements, such as branch prediction and larger cache, that also benefit the AMD processor.
Also, I can comprehensively say that in terms of raw performance, Intel has been well and truly knocked off the thrown. Long live the new king -- AMD.

Once you've saved some vehicles, you can view them here at any time.
If you've been looking for an affordable compact sedan but don't quite know which way to go, then examining the 2017 Toyota Corolla and the 2017 Nissan Sentra is an excellent place to start! While these models sport similar profiles in a lot of ways, subtle differences can pay dividends, as you'll soon see with this helpful guide. Get help choosing your next economy sedan near Smyrna, and then come test drive the Toyota Corolla at Marietta Toyota.

Buying a compact sedan once meant agreeing to compromise on certain premium features, although the Toyota Corolla is here to rid drivers near Atlanta of that sacrifice once and for all. It's true that both the Corolla and the Nissan Sentra offer standard safety features like antilock brakes, front side airbags, and side curtain airbags. However, the new Corolla is the only model of the two that also comes with a driver knee airbag, a passenger seat cushion airbag, and a rearview camera. Not only that, the Corolla is also the only model to offer a full suite of standard driver assist features in the form of the bountiful Toyota Safety Sense™ P (TSS-P) package. Some of these same technologies are available only as expensive upgrades on the Sentra, and, even worse, some aren't available at all.
Whether you choose the 2017 Toyota Corolla or the 2017 Nissan Sentra, you'll get a standard 1.8L four-cylinder engine and the choice of a six-speed manual transmission or a Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT). However, the Corolla offers both better power and fuel efficiency:
The 2017 Toyota Corolla has the features most responsible shoppers around Smyrna are looking for in a compact sedan, whether you're commuting back and forth to Atlanta for work or taking a weekend trip out of town with the family.

Most non-bloggers think that taking pictures, creating content, and hitting the 'post' button is all there is to being a blogger. But oh nooo, My Dear Friends. There's SO MUCH more to it. Before becoming a blogger, no one really told me about the never-ending hours of editing photos, attending local events, meeting up and schmoozing with other bloggers, working with brands, making sure your social media is consistent and relevant, 'checking out' what other bloggers are doing, keeping up with the ever changing world of blogging, etc. Most recently, I've partnered with V8 +HYDRATE™ and I can't wait to tell you all about it. Whenever I find myself on the go and needing superior hydration, this is what I reach for.
As a blogger, there is always an event or party to attend, especially where the alcohol is usually free-flowing! And unfortunately the morning after…UGHHH! I'm sure most of you get what I mean. This is where the new V8 +HYDRATE™ comes into play. V8 +HYDRATE™ is a plant-powered hydration beverage that offers superior hydration with a blend of natural electrolytes from vegetables and hints of fruit for a delicious beverage that replenishes you quickly. I'm loving V8 +HYDRATE™ because each 8 oz can has 1 serving of vegetables, only 45 calories, no sugar added, no artificial sweeteners, Non-GMO, and gluten free. And did I mention it's great for morning recovery?!? Knowing that the next exciting party/activity/event is just around the corner, the importance of recovery through hydration is super crucial. #PlantBasedHydration
And the beauty of V8 +HYDRATE™ is it comes in three delicious flavors: Strawberry Cucumber, Orange Grapefruit, and Coconut Watermelon. I've tried all three flavors and the Coconut Watermelon is my favorite…only because I'm a serious watermelon AND coconut lover! All three flavors are clean and crisp, with a super delish taste. I also love and appreciate that these cans are perfect for on the go.
So no matter what your busy and active lifestyle consists of (nightlife, family, demanding job, working out, or just tired and need to rejuvenate), it's important for both women and men to stay hydrated throughout the day (look out for your Boo, Ladies!!!).
Now for the cherry-on-top: You can get 30% off a 24-count pack of V8 +HYDRATE™ via Amazon and Amazon Pantry using the Promo Code 30V8Hydrate1. Good while supplies last. I say this is the cherry-on-top because to get 30% off this is already very wallet-friendly beverage is quite unbelievable deal!
So what are you waiting for? Go ahead and get yours right away and let me know what you think.
Thanks so much for reading. And as always, have a beautiful day. XOXO, Candy

The button housing is comprised of 3 very strong magnets which ensure a comfortable throw and one hell of a hit and one beefy copper contact pin. The threading on each mod is flawless and they are weighty too, these mods ooze high-end quality. This mod comes with a rugged, hard shell carry case.
- Tapers to 28.5mm on top
- Fully adjustable button to compensate for battery rattle
- Deep CNC engravings
- Hybrid top
- Locally made in Orlando U.S.A
What's in the box:
- 1 x Viper
- 1 x Hard shell carry case
- 1 x Certificate of authenticity
You must read, understand, and agree to the following before purchasing: This is an advanced piece of hardware that is absolutely not suitable for use by beginners or anyone who doesn't have a thorough and comprehensive understanding of Ohm's law and battery safety. If you're a new vaper and this device was recommended to you by a friend, then that person is a bad friend and you should be suspicious of all of their opinions from now on.
Serious injury and bodily harm can be caused by incorrect use of this device, and Vapers Den will not be held liable for any issues that arise from improper handling or lack of proper knowledge. It is entirely incumbent on you to research and understand the safe operation of this mechanical mod.
Unlike regulated devices, mechanical mods do not have any internal circuitry to detect improperly oriented batteries, nor do they limit battery discharge or incorporate any safety cutoffs. For that reason, it is vitally important that you take note of and follow the battery orientation marks on the device to avoid shorts, and to only ever use high-drain batteries that are in excellent condition with no bumps or dents, and which are properly wrapped.
This is not a toy, do not be cavalier with your safety. If you have any doubt whatsoever about the level of knowledge required to safely use this device, buy something else. There are plenty of regulated devices capable of producing just as much vapour without any of the risks associated with mechanical devices.

New Yorkers are resilient. They are survivors. No matter what type of adversity has been thrown at them in recent years, the people of New York, New Jersey and Connecticut have shown again and again that they will not back down. They don't give up.
Hurricane Sandy was the latest of many difficult challenges to knock the New York area to its knees. The superstorm's destruction – from Breezy Point to Staten Island, from Seaside Heights to Hoboken, from Red Hook to Rockaway Beach – will never be forgotten by those who survived it.
One of the most devastating storms to ever make landfall in the United States, Sandy killed at least 121 people in the Northeast, 80 of the victims in New York and New Jersey. It knocked out power to more than 8 million homes and businesses.
New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo requested $42 billion in federal aid to clean up damage in the state and prepare for future emergencies of this nature, and Gov. Chris Christie of New Jersey similarly requested $36.8 billion for damage sustained on the Jersey side.
Though dwarfed in many respects by tragic losses of life, homes, businesses and other property, one casualty of the record-breaking storm was the number of cars destroyed by Sandy. A minimum of 16,000 brand new vehicles had to be scrapped because they were stored in flooded areas, many in the port of Newark. Somewhere between 100,000 and 250,000 vehicles were totaled and will have to be taken off the road if they have not been already.
The numbers are staggering, and they may get you wondering. Given the risks, if you don't truly need your car, is it really worth keeping it? With so much of the NYC area on or near the water, and many neighborhoods so vulnerable to flooding, it's a factor any car owner here would be wise to consider.
Another key consideration is whether your auto insurance covers flood damage. If liability coverage is the only type you have, then your claim for flood or water damage will be rejected. Car owners should seriously consider comprehensive type coverage that includes reimbursement for these types of claims. Otherwise, you will likely be out of luck.
If you do carry insurance that will cover catastrophic flooding, you'll still likely need to deal with a long wait for an insurance adjuster to personally inspect your vehicle before your claim can be processed and you'll be reimbursed. Of course, if you sell your car, truck or motorcycle now, you won't have to worry about what's covered or how long you'll have to wait for an insurance adjuster – in fact you won't have to worry about the burden and costs of insurance at all.
Another advantage of not relying on a car during and after a flood or long-term power outage is not needing to wait in maddeningly long lines at the pumps for gas. The recent gas panic underscored just how reliant so many of us are on our cars, despite the amazing network of public transportation available to us in this area.

So if you haven't notice by now there is only one trade going on. It's basically USD versus everything else. In the 08 meltdown it was a carry trade unwind versus everything else. You could pretty much throw your bets on anything inverse the JPY on a minute to minute basis. Now its the USD weakness or relative strength versus everything. Obviously commodities and precious metals but also or especially equities.
Now the sweetly ironic bit in the play that the tin hat brigade has been warning of since 1999 is that gold isn't the best one of the "everything else". Not yet, maybe tomorrow, maybe in two months, maybe in two years but not yet, not since the March lows. That's funny, who would have thought that an obvious trade wouldn't be the best one?? Who would have thought that swallowing the rhetoric of the religious gold followers would have you lagging when their predictions start to turn true? Well half of it anyway, the weak USD half. Funny how this game doesn't reward followers.
Especially those that buy their lattes in AUD,

How is 15 PPM reached in an oily water separator?
15 ppm is achieved in an oily water separator by normally passing through a 2 stage separator where in the first stage oil/water is passed into the coarse separating compartment. Here some oil will rise to the top of the compartment due to its lower density. Heating coils may aid this. The remaining oil/water will flow down into the fine separating compartment and moves slowly between catch plates. More oil will separate out onto the underside of these plates and travel outwards until free water (usually being at 100ppm at this stage) will then pass to the second stage of the separator which is filter unit comprising of 2 filter units. The first filter stage removes physical impurities present and promotes some fine separation. The second stage filter uses coalescer inserts to achieve the final de-oiling, oil/water mixture leaving this stage at less than 15 ppm.

MAYOR of Tralee, Cllr Graham Spring, was delighted to open a new project at a Mitchels estate on Wednesday night.
Young people who were part of the Community Regeneration Street Art project were present to receive certificates from the Mayor for their work on a fantastic initiative which began in November 2017.
The theme and the intention was to play with paint to create an exuberant, colourful area behind the Aras an Phobail building near Croilar Na Mistealach.
Continued below…
The 20 plus fabulous murals which are now mounted on the walls were created by the young people who live on Croilar Na Mistealach and the young people from St. Brigid's Community Centre, supported by KDYS Youth Workers and artist Muiriosa Murphy.
Tremendous fun was had by all, a lot was learned and a good deal of paint was scrubbed off of floor and walls in the process.
The benches and bins outside were also decorated in fun colours. Advantage was taken of the beautiful weather in the month of May to stencil lots of children's games, including a Maize and Hopscotch, on the ground.
The intention was to create a fun outdoor space for the community to use, and as the project progressed and colour and life started to enter the area, how people used the space changed.
Continued below…
Office workers came out for their breaks and strolled about looking at the art and sitting and talking with their colleagues in the sunshine.
The project was completed to such a high standard with the help of the residents of Croilar Na Mistealach, the Tús Workers in the Community Gardens, residents of Johnson Marina and the users of the TIRC centre. The project was funded by Kerry County Council as part of regeneration initiative. Scroll down for photos…

BMW South Africa says it is recalling 11 780 cars in South Africa as part of the group's worldwide measure to carry out repairs.
The models in question include all 5 and 6 Series models built from March 2003 to September 2010, which means all previous generation BMW 5 Series Sedans, BMW M5 Sedans and BMW M5 Touring models, the luxury car manufacturer said in a statement.
All previous generation BMW 6 Series Coupes, Convertibles and BMW M6 Coupes and BMW M6 Convertibles are included in the recall as well.
"Vehicle owners will be notified in writing, requesting them to bring the vehicle to their respective dealership where the repair will be done at no cost to the customer. This repair should not take longer than 30 minutes," said BMWSA spokesperson, Guy Kilfoil.
In certain cases, the battery cable cover inside the boot of these vehicles may be incorrectly mounted. This could result in an electrical system malfunction, the vehicle failing to start and, in very rare circumstances, the charring of the cables or fire.
BMW said it was not aware of any accidents or injury to persons as a result of this fault, which was brought to light by its internal quality control measures. — I-Net Bridge

A barber is by nature and inclination a sport. He can tell you at what exact hour the ball game is to begin, can foretell its issue without losing a stroke of the razor, and can explain the points of inferiority of all the players, as compared with the better men that he has personally seen elsewhere, with the nicety of a professional.
There was a barber and his wife / And she was beautiful / A foolish barber and his wife / She was his reason and his life / And she was beautiful / and she was virtuous / and he was...
There was a barber and his wife, / and she was beautiful. / A foolish barber and his wife. / She was his reason and his life, / and she was beautiful, / and she was virtuous. / And he was... / naive...
So she went into the garden to cut a cabbage-leaf, to make an apple-pie; and at the same time a great she- bear coming up the street, pops its head into the shop. 'What! no soap?' So he died and she very imprudently married the barber; and there were present the Picninnies, and the Joblillies, and the Garyulies, and the Grand Panjandrumhimself, withthelittleround buttonat top; and they all fell to playing the game of catch-as- catch-can till the gunpowder ran out of theheels of their boots.Samuel Foote
Don't blame me for the fact that competent programming, as I view it as an intellectual possibility, will be too difficult for "the average programmer" — you must not fall into the trap of rejecting a surgical technique because it is beyond the capabilities of the barber in his shop around the corner.edsger w. dijkstra
The barber man was small and flash, as barbers mostly are,He wore a strike-your-fancy sash, he smoked a huge cigar;He was a humorist of note and keen at repartee,He laid the odds and kept a "tote", whatever that may be,And when he saw our friend arrive, he whispered, "Here's a lark!Just watch me catch him all alive, this man from Ironbark."andrew paterson
"I'm an owl; you're another. Sir Critic, good day." And the barber kept on shaving.james thomas fields
Thus when a barber and collier fight, The barber beats the luckless collier white; The dusty collier heaves his ponderous sack, And, big with vengeance, beats the barber black. In comes the brick-dust man. with grime o'erspread, And beats the collier and the barber red; Black, red, and white, in various clouds are toss'd, And in the dust they raise the combatants are lost.Christopher Smart
...and he stuck a bit of cotton on the second wound . With each stroke of the razor , another bit of cotton joined the crop sprouting on the Hoca's left cheek, "Now", said the barber , "I will do the other side".
Since you [US "drug czar" McCaffrey] control a federal budget that has just been increased from $17.8 billion last year to $19.2 billion this year, is asking people like you if we should continue with our nation's current drug policy like a person asking a barber if one needs a haircut?
A prating barber asked Archelaus how he would be trimmed. He answered, "In silence."
It is needless to ask of a saint the caste to which he belongs; For the priest, the warrior. the tradesman, and all the thirty-six castes, alike are seeking for God. It is but folly to ask what the caste of a saint may be; The barber has sought God, the washerwoman, and the carpenter Even Raidas was a seeker after God.

Introduction: Guerrilla Gardening - Bombing Style
Imagine you're driving through the urban jungle. You're living your life, trying to do what's right and while you're eating miles and avoiding crossing skaters, elderly persons, dogs and raccoons you see all those monotonous roundabouts, roadsides & abandoned spaces. Sometimes they're planted with things called 'flowers', most of the time there's just nothing but grass. If there is, any grass. Prozac, now!
Wouldn't it be just great to have some kind of magic stick to transform all those spaces in wild growing, colourful & useful flashes of green wilderness, with flowers, vegetables, cereals or, if you want, potatoes? Instant photoshop, for example.
Such magic stick exists! Only, it's not magic, and there's no stick. But there's better: bombs! Time bombs!
In this I'ble I'll show you how to make so called 'seed bombs'. You'll make them, you'll shape them, and you'll launch them on every spot you want to transform. The result will not be seen immediately but a result there will be. Be patient, it's a time bomb. And when it will explode, the result will be fabulous!
This concept of 'gardening' makes part of so called 'guerrilla gardening'. Guerrilla gardening is nothing new. It's a concept that rose in the US in the seventies with as main purpose to reclaim land in urbanised areas and put a finger in the smelly wound of agro-globalism. There's a very nice definition on the net, better than I ever could explain, but let's say that it's a direct political form of action, using gardening as a mean of environmental action.
It defends the right to land, agrarian reform, and sustainable agriculture. In short it's a kind of reclaiming urban public space (wastelands, industrial areas, green spaces) by citizens willing to put nature back in the city, with burning questions about food autonomy of cities, beautiful places in the city and on mismanaged private property.
But it is above all very entertaining, and deliciously subversive!
There are many ways to be a green guerrilla. Some guerrillas will transform public spaces into real gardens - once we found a few dozens of cannabis plants in the middle of a wildlife reserve (!), others will dislocate trees and plant them elsewhere and others will randomly bomb. There are even 'evil guerrillas' - those who make bombs filled with seeds of plants that most people hate: nettles, thistles or human-devouring tulips. Free beer for them!
You can be any green guerrilla you want! Let's booooooooooomb!!!
Step 1: Dig It!
To make these bombs you'll need a lot of black powder, wicks and some metal tubes.
I repeat. To make these bombs you'll need some clay and some seeds. That's it, sorry.
The seeds are the easiest part of the job. Go to the bio-shop and buy what you want.
Note: choose plants native to your region - plants that grow there naturally, I mean. Don't start dispersing exotic species, they are often quite aggresive and take easily the place of the natives. If you don't know for sure, ask someone.
Than the clay. The advantage of being a semi-geologist is that at least I know what to find under the grass. So I digged a hole, and at about one foot depth I found that clay-ish layer I Iove so much - called a 'horizont' - formed by very small particles that were washed out from the upper layer and accumulated there. Whatever, if you dig, you might find some clay in your garden. If you don't: any DIY-market will have.
How to know if it's clay? Make a ball - if you accomplish this you're on the right way - and throw it to something. If it sticks, good chance it's clay.
If it screams, choose another target.
If you have a mass spectrometer: learn to use it.
You have it? Great! Store it in a cool place.
Step 2: Don't Be Affraid to Get Dirty
Now let's start to make those bombs!
Roll out some clay - by wetting the support first because it'll stick to it - or use fist power to make a pie.
Spread those seeds all over it - not too much, just a few seeds in every ball is enough (some guerillas mix a bit of loam with it too).
Put all that clay back together and knead it like bread dough.
Take a bit of that cake and roll your balls - wetting your hands helps.
Done? Nice! Store them in a cool place.
Note: you don't need to bake them!
Step 3: Find Targets and Laaaaaaaunch!!!
When those seed-bombs are made you can hit the road and find targets - drive-by shooting style.
Aim is to bomb the landscape. One driver, three bombers - I like that! Unless you have a pick-up, oh yeah!!!
Nice targets are roundabouts (how is it possible there are sprouts growing there?!), roadsides, public parks and so on. Be creative!
Or, for the evil guerrilla's: the green green grass gardens of your neighbours - maybe I should put a disclaimer at the end, in case...
The concept is simple. The clay protects the seeds when they hit the ground. It retains some moisture in the inside of the ball and protects them from sunlight. During the first rain the ball will dissolve slowly and the seed will germinate in its nutritious cocoon.
As soon as the radicle (small primitive root of the seedling) touches the ground it's done! Those sprouts will grow!
Enjoy!!! Can't wait to see those vegetables start to grow everywhere ;)
Step 4: Daily Growin'...
Wait for the first rains to come & enjoy the magic...
Thanx, Altan ;)

The land you're talking about belongs to the governments that have codes about what can be where or are privately owned.
And a lot of cities major base of income is tourism. They have a specific way the city is designed to attract the tourists. Destroying these spaces with plants other than what they have designed is probably illegal.
Besides what have you got against grass anyway? A lot of urbanites love the way manicured grass areas look. And there is PLENTY of land that is being and is zoned for farming. Just because you don't like it doesn't mean everyone is like that.
And egging on subversives to do this to their neighbors lawns is wrong and if they do and they're found out will probably get them injured.
Then they had better do something better than allowing it to be covered in grasses that produce foxtails. There are plenty of native species that are more attractive and less of a nuisance. Maintain it or get out of the way, I say.
Going to bomb California poppies, milkweed, sage and clover. We need to support our bee and butterfly populations. What better use for our public medians and easeways?
I don't think this is "destroying" spaces necessarily. From an ecological and agricultural perspective it is enhancement. Grass is nice aesthetically but reduces the biodiversity of insects and invertebrates of the area it grows if artificially planted. Additionally, it provides no resources for pollinators. Almost all of our food (even some meat and dairy due to alfalfa feeding) exists because of pollinators and they are in severe decline worldwide. Most farming in the first world is just as manicured as those grassy areas so does not provide the kind of habitat native planting such as this does. Besides, plants in their native setting don't grow at a rate that is a threat, you can always cut or pull!
I can understand his hate for the city landscape. You say it is designed to attract tourists, but the blatant artificial look of it all is just dreadful and quite frankly repressive. Any alteration done by this kind of "warfare" is a welcome change from the repulsive "Urban garden" look.
You got the picture, bomb it!
The day our cities will be surrounded by evil forces, you will stare at your beautiful grass.
But I will eat mashed potatoes.
Something tells me my city is going to start having an invasion of milkweed for the monarch butterflies. Nice that the plants are native and prolific. All I have to do is harvest the seeds which is really easy to do. I might even include some clover and sage for the bees.
Now get about 30 of these and get a small catapult, and launch the bombs at your neighbor's lawn
Done it. Never seen so much cannabis - my retired neighbours let them grow 'since these weird plants were so beautiful!'. LOL
Oh my god. I could've died I laughed so hard. :D
Some friends of mine did this years ago on the riverbank in Covington, KY... within two years the bank was blanketed with tomatoes, eggplant, squash, and pumpkins. The local homeless camps loved it. Unfortunately the city didn't; they bulldozed the garden last year saying it was an "eyesore" (because mud and trash are apparently more appealing). Looks like its time to go gardening again...
Awesome, looks like the perfect survive-the-apocalypse story! Let's go gardening, before the hell breaks loose...
muy bueno lo voy a hacer
Great idea!
awesome! Great idea!
Thanx friend, I hope the japanese inventor is a member of the site!
Love the idea
Thanx, me too ;)
May be a dumb question, but what about throwing these on coarse gravel that has soil beneath? In other words no landscaping fabric to block weeds?
The balls will slowly desintegrate by rain and the clay will wash gradually through the gravel, providing a perfect ground for those seedlings.

Snape watches, as Harry Potter stares into nowhere - not, as before, because he wasn't aware of his surroundings, but because he's remembering.
"I was... upset. No, no that's not it. More than upset." Harry's green eyes look up at Snape, who holds himself in a controlled parade rest - by sheer force of will retaining the pretense that enables Potter to report, rather than think. Snape wants to crouch down, meet Potter's eyes dead on, and see.
"I was... everything, all of it, all at once. All the feels, cascading through me." Harry said, his voice sounding leaden. Snape's eyes tried to find, in Harry's face, what had caused it. Almost unnaturally, his face is still, only his mouth moving - as if his whole face had been dipped in wax.
"The Dark Lord described it as a deluge." Snape said dryly, sounding unimpressed.
"It ... was a lot, hot cold, bright and dark." Harry shook his head, "I could have handled it if I was just angry." Snape heard the ring of truth in that statement. What had caused this major malfunction? Snape thought with irritation. Of Course, The Dark Lord wants to know. Hell, if Albus heard a whiff of this, he'd want to know too. And that would be all Snape needed at this point, faked sorrow and understanding at how he couldn't possibly be expected to pry something out of gritted Gryffindor teeth.
"The Dark Lord only put up minimal shielding," Snape sneered in sympathy, "I wouldn't want to be bothered by adolescent angst, either." Of course, that is my other job, hated as it is. Snape thought grimly.
Harry looked at him, and seemed to shrink, somehow, pulling back inside himself.
Cursing at himself, Snape cracked, "Go on."
"I... I felt him, trying to worm his way into my mind." Harry said, his voice carrying an undercurrent of a very un-Gryffindor fear. Not that I'd feel much better, Snape thought wryly, If the dark lord was invading my undefended mind.
"And?" Snape said, demanding with the question, letting Potter choose what he told.
"I..." Harry sits there blinking, vaguely staring into the distance, "I was curious. I wanted to know..." Snape was once again left pondering how in blazes this child had managed to convince the Sorting Hat that he would be a good fit for Gryffindor. "Charge Ahead" Gryffindor - Snape's mental image was of Sirius Black, unreasonable and doggedly determined, "Blow it to Pieces, and then Ask Questions" - Alastor Moody for that one, though really half the Auror Corps fit the mold, after he'd trained them.
Harry hung his head, "I don't think I got much out of it, really..."
"What happened?" Snape asked, rapidly discarding any concept of interfering with Potter's line of thought.
"I... wasn't interested in my memories... I was interested in him..." Harry said, almost stuttering. "My mind chose the landscape - unconsciously, you know." Yes, I do know, that's a novice mistake...
Harry swallowed a gulp. "It was a big, open grassy field - my memories were in the grass, I remember that part - they weren't important, though."
"I had all my attention focused on him, and- I was a dog, sir. A big, black, curly-haired dog." Oh, the gods are laughing now. Snape bit back his sarcastic wit, and waited.
"He was... he was a ball." Harry said, his voice cracking into small hoots of laughter as he spoke - the edges of hysteria starting to creep back in. "I was playing chase with it." Harry looked up at Snape, his glass green eyes wide, "I don't think he liked it, much."
Lord Voldemort has always liked being in control, so, no, I don't think he liked it very much. Snape bit back any words.
"I threw him in a circle of stones, so the grass wouldn't burn." Harry said, "And then I coughed up some fire, and he left in a puff of smoke." Oh, how appropriate. And they tell me this boy is a wizard.
"Then what happened?" Snape rapped out.
"I came back to myself," Harry said, "Was me again, not just the part of me that wanted... that."
Harry looked up at Snape, who's surprised to not see a shred of distrust, "You know occulumency. You'd be able to tell me what I just did. And... I ought to report interactions with the Dark Lord, sir. That hasn't changed."
Snape gave a nod of acknowledgement, trying to work out for himself why Potter had been near comatose when he'd arrived.
"You weren't there, sir." Harry Potter said, "And then it hit me - I'd had the Dark Lord in my mind." Harry started rocking again, and Snape was about to grab his chin and force him to make eye contact, when Harry Potter asked, "What do I do? Sir, what do I do now?"
[a/n: Harry tried to do what he was supposed to. It was thinking that got him into that state, and he'd been given enough time to wall out everything, in order to just think on the ramifications.
Leave a review?
Next chapter: Snape would really like to know what adolescent hiccup caused this.]

Royal Moroccan Visit
The Prince of Wales and The Duchess of Cornwall arrived in Morocco today. Their Royal Highnesses were greeted at Rabat airport by Prince Moulay Rachid, brother HM the King of Morocco, Mohammed VI.
During their tour today, TRH visited the 1st Brigade Infanterie Parachutiste, where they saw a number of peacekeeping training skills being taught in the classrooms there. Prince Charles is Colonel-In-Chief of the UK's Parachute Regiment and was wearing a regimental tie and badge on his lapel.
The visit ended with a display of 22 parachutists jumping from a plane at 800 metres and landing yards from where TRH were watching. They watched through binoculars and then clapped as each soldier handed. The first parachutists were carrying the British and Moroccan flags.
Later in the day, Their Royal Highnesses went to the Mausoleum of King Mohammed V. They laid wreaths at the tombs of Mohammed V and Hassan II, both previous Kings of Morocco. The Prince of Wales laid a wreath during his visit to the tomb in 1995.
His Royal Highness then visited the National Library to meet business leaders who had just attended a seminar on the social and economic benefits of corporate social responsibility. HRH's charity, Youth Business International, discussed the opportunities for companies to engage with young entrepreneurs.
Meanwhile, The Duchess of Cornwall went on to the Villa Des Arts where she met young Kaftan designers and looked at some of their creations.

We live in visual times. Video streaming and memes are a main currency for successful marketing online (with or without cats). The era of eye candy extends to brand experience as well, where virtual reality displays, mobile LED screens the size of houses, and hypnotic 3D projection mapping can transform a regular event into an immersive experience.
But we can't forget the importance of sound! Beyond mic feedback and volume levels, sound design can have a significant impact on your brand experience. Adding the right sound content to visual content can radically increase audience engagement and elevate your brand above the loud noise of a competitive industry.
Here are a few tips and tricks from sound science and psychology you can use today.
The soundtrack of audience influence
It's no secret that harsh sound can break glass, and at the very least annoy your eardrum. On the other hand, sound can affect moods, and recent science reveals that the right sound frequencies can even kill cancer cells.
Sound is powerful stuff. This is the reason why, even if we might hate them, laugh tracks scientifically work, and why many television shows don't skimp on clapping tracks. This is also why movies spend on conductors like Hans Zimmer (the talent behind such ardent soundtracks as Inception, Pirates of the Caribbean, and The Dark Knight). I mean, what would the movie Jaws be without the haunting score of John Williams?
It's obvious the proper audio effects and music elevate film and television narratives. But what does that have to do with brand experience? As trends reveal, today's successful event marketers tap into storytelling to create lasting emotional connections and brand loyalty with attendees. Your event is the story of your organization and its vision. Being mindful (or earful) of audio can augment your storytelling.
What's more, it's widely known that sound is an effective way to influence audience behavior. Jewelry stores play classical music to get customers in a lofty and comfortable state of mind where buying expensive wares is seamless. Research reveals loud music tends to make people go through a store quicker, while slow tempo pop music causes higher impulse purchases.
Setting the perfect tone for brand experience
As with anything else in your event toolbox, audio content should first and foremost conform to your marketing objectives and event theme. You shouldn't play Star Wars "Imperial March" right as your CEO takes the stage to give a keynote, just as you shouldn't blast Nirvana if your attendees are mostly senior citizens. As you research your audience, sponsors, and even company stakeholders, feel free to understand their musical tastes if you don't already know this information.
Beyond formulating the right audio (or audio effects) for your brand experience, consult with your audio visual partner on the right audio for the right mood (and they can also tell you of any copyright issues).
With audio also comes the usage of audio. Background music may set the mood, but something as subtle as lowering the volume as house lights drop can capture the attention of attendees even before a session begins. Audio cues that encourage the audience to look at a certain part of the stage or punctuate a presentation are also appealing.
Even the way you market your sound can make a difference. As an illustration, silent party tech makes all music custom for audiences at dances or parties of an event — all through radio frequency (RF) wireless technology and multichannel headphones. Calibrating music at a virtual reality presentation, depending on participant demographic, could create more memorable sessions.
In short, you need to be both the director and conductor of sound in your event, and align it to the storytelling of your brand.
Best practices for best hearing
Knowing how to use sound as part of a brand experience atmosphere will likely underperform unless you provide the best possible sound system in the right environment. This doesn't mean having to purchase Coachella-quality speakers. Just be aware of basic physics. For example, to ensure sound clarity to an audience, a basic AV rule with speaker application declares that if you can see a speaker, you can hear it. Mundane objects like a screen or a drape blocking a speaker can potentially disrupt sound quality.
Another tip is that, whenever possible, fly your speaker arrays for best coverage. Be aware of your room design — as exposed steel, curved walls, cement, and windows can wreak havoc on sound through reverberation — and always test sound systems as much as possible. In the end, your AV partner should be able to optimize your sound system depending on your location, even if it's something seemingly rudimentary like placing down carpet (which negates sound vibration).
If you just have to make sure every member of your audience hears your content equally and clearly, consider investing in recent innovate audio tech that leverages real-time location tracking of performers and presenters on a stage. In brief, sounds follow the visuals on a screen in relation to the attendee, almost like if it were live content. This type of "smart sound" and a new generation of audio systems not only distribute music equally and in perspective, but they also minimize listener fatigue and increase audience attention.
Lastly, keep in mind that audio is also your event flow partner. As examples, a translation service during presentations with sizeable international attendees or continual, valuable announcements on session occupancy can go a long way in serving audiences.
Regardless of how you harness sound, know that audio should be part of a holistic ecosystem that stimulates all attendee senses to fire up a personal and unforgettable experience. Then audiences will loudly share your brand story since you have brought value into their lives while causing a desired action.
Your turn: Share your thoughts!

This is the first episode in the new Star Wars animated series. I know it's been out for a few weeks, but I was on vacation and didn't have time to check it out. I did read some good and bad things about it, and thought I'd put my thoughts on it here. It's different. … Continue reading Star Wars: Resistance Episode 1 "The Recruit"
The Gifted Series Premiere
I watched the premiere of the other new Marvel series last week, and wanted to give this one a go, despite not really enjoying Inhumans. There are several differences between the two shows, with Inhumans taking place in the Marvel cinematic universe, and The Gifted taking place in the X-men universe. Though the show takes … Continue reading The Gifted Series Premiere
Inhumans: Was it Really as Bad as the Initial Reviews?
I sat down and watched the two-part series opener, mostly out of curiosity. It had been receiving terrible reviews, but I wanted to check it out anyway. I wanted to see if this was just a critical backlash or if there was really something to it. First off, this show is on network television, so … Continue reading Inhumans: Was it Really as Bad as the Initial Reviews?

So this is it, the end of the first season. The episode begins with Mr. Nancy making a suit, while two clients, who turn out to be Shadow and Wednesday wait.

American Gods Episode 7
This episode opens with the tale of how Mad Sweeney, the Leprechaun, came to America.

American Gods Episode 6
This is the episode where everything starts to come together. We see the man who encountered the Djinn in episode 3(Salim) meet up with Laura and Mad Sweeney(the Leprechaun). Which is setting aside the one fear I had that things were happening for sensationalist purposes, with no thought to plot. I'm also enjoying the banter … Continue reading American Gods Episode 6
American Gods Episode 5
This episode picks up right where the last ended. Shadow walks into his hotel room to find his dead wife Laura waiting for him. It is thematically darker than the previous episode, albeit with far less gore or violence. It is less sexually charged as well. Shadow and Laura have a pretty interesting conversation. He's … Continue reading American Gods Episode 5
American Gods Episode 4 – The Prequel Episode
If you can't guess from the title, this episode is a prequel of sorts to the first episode. It begins with Shadow's wife Laura just before they met. She is working in a dead-end job as a dealer in the local casino, living a life with no meaning. Before meeting Shadow she even attempts suicide. … Continue reading American Gods Episode 4 – The Prequel Episode
American Gods: Episode 3
Three episodes in and I'm still enjoying the series. The two leads continue to be solid, and we are finally starting to get a sniff of what Mr Wednesday might actually be planning. Gods and supernatural beings continue to be introduced(some more graphically than others), and I'm getting more and more curious as to how … Continue reading American Gods: Episode 3
American Gods Episode 2
I enjoyed the first episode, so I decided to watch the second as well. It opens in the cargo hold of a slave ship, with a slave praying to his God, Anansi, to save him. Anansi, portrayed by Orlando Jones shows up and quickly riles up the slaves and has them kill their captors and … Continue reading American Gods Episode 2
