This system may let the attackers alter how the machine functioned, line by line, however they needed, leaving no one the wiser. To grasp the power that might give them, take this hypothetical occasion: Someplace in the Linux working system, which runs in plenty of servers, is code that authorizes a person by verifying a typed password in opposition to a saved encrypted one. An implanted chip can alter a part of that code so the server is not going to take a look at for a password—and presto! A secure machine is open to any and all users. A chip can even steal encryption keys for protected communications, block safety updates which will neutralize the assault, and open up new pathways to the internet.

Grid operators will need to have their information security management system (ISMS) certified by January 31, 2018. In order to ensure that a certification can be effected within the stipulated deadline, the ISMS rollout should be completed a few months beforehand, since internal audits have to be carried out. With only a few exceptions, all grid operators are affected by the security requirements of the IT Security Catalogue.
Current implementation status
Our experience from the past few months has shown that many grid operators are not very far advanced yet with the introduction of their ISMS according to ISO 27001, taking into account ISO 27019. Some of the reasons for this are a tight planning, the complex nature of the ISMS introduction regarding the special requirements placed on grid operators, the identification of potential threats and risks or a lack of resources.
Support through TÜViT
You have already started the rollout of your ISMS and you would like to determine the current status of its implementation:
- we will be pleased to carry out a gap analysis that takes into account ISO 27019. This will provide you with an assessment of the maturity level of your ISMS with respect to the forthcoming ISO 27001 certification, including measures to identify any gaps.
You have not yet started the rollout of your ISMS:
- we can provide you with support in the form of workshops when you will begin to set up your ISMS
- we will advise and support you in setting up and implementing your ISMS on the basis of a specifically developed process model which takes into account (among other things) the field of application, the protection requirements assessment, the preparation of a grid structure plan, the compilation of documents and the setting-up of processes
- we will also help you with the consolidation of documents and processes from other standard specifications such as quality management
- we can provide you with support with the evaluation and assessment of risks associated with information security using risk assessments
Your benefits at a glance
- extensive experience in the field of ISO 27001: TÜViT has successfully carried out more than 600 ISMS projects – also among energy suppliers and grid operators
- our auditors have an additional qualification for the energy sector

The covered box will hold the odor. I would suggest the you scoop morning and night and whenever someone leaves a "present" scoop it and dispose of it immediately.
I would also recommend that you experiment with different litters. The less expensive litters often end up costing more because they are not as effective.
Also, try leaving a low bowls with white vinegar around the house...this can really eliminate stubborn odors/
Good Luck!

1) Clean the box to the walls once a week, and spray with Nature's Miracle, letting it dry before refilling.
2) Check to make sure you have no 'stains' around the cat box, and no littler spilled around it. Doesn't take much to become pungent.
3) Consider changing your litter to Fresh Results. It's pine based, so it doesn't hold odor as much as clay litter. It's also clumping, and much lighter, which makes disposal easier. And it's biodegradable!
4) Rather than pay extra for deodorizer, try sprinkling the bottom with baking soda, it works better, is less noxious to the cats, and cheaper, too.
5) Try a covered box with a built-in filter slot, this does lots to cut down on the smell.
6) Get another litter box! For some reason nobody understands, it's best to have one more than the number of cats you are hosting, And it cuts down on the concentration.

That's disgusting. and it's not the cats fault they have got into a bad habit. It's your sister's fault for neglecting this, not providing enough cleaned boxes for them to use, so that the whole house gets turned into one big cat box It is recommended to have a litterbox for each cat plus one extra, in different locations, AND clean them every day! So for 7 cats that would be 8 boxes. For the equivalent of that many cats with 2 boxes they should be cleaned 4 times a day. But really even that may not be enough, if all 7 go at once. She should add at LEAST 2 more boxes and clean them at LEAST twice a day. She also might consider making some giant boxes out of storage containers

I use a kitty litter called "The Worlds Best Kitty Litter" It is made from corn and has virtually no dust, clumps great, and I scoop every day, change the litter once a week or so. It is a bit on the expensive side, but no one can tell I have 3 cats.

If everything people have listed does not help, an you find that the kitties poo is extremely stinky, one may have a digestive problem. If an animal eats to fast, the food is not properly digested and the proteins are not absorbed by the body which is what make it stink, horribly. Try switching to a different cat food, often a person from a vet or pet food store can help steer you to the right one.
My cat had that problem and no matter what I did, my house stunk horribly! I was feeding them at the time friskies, but I switched over to science diet (which can get a little pricey)(or try purina) and the problem went away!
Good luck!! Hope you find something that helps!

I have had many cats in my time - i am now 77 - and have never had
a cat litter tray in the house for more than approx 4 weeks. Train them
to go outside for toilet even making a cat door. Perhaps you have
Persians or some other rare breed then of course litter tray is essential
but if cleaned out every day the house should not smell.Source(s): Despite having had cats in my lifetime i now get very angry when they do their toilets on my garden and dont cover it up - i now tend to ` `shoo` the cats away despite the fact that i love them

Yeah I agree, World's Best Cat Litter is really good--you can get the one for multiple cats. It is a little pricier but it's healthy for them since it is made of corn. I suggest you try out a small bag!

Now, with this latest and even more magnificent beast , the rogue princes of Canadian cuisine and hospitality show us the way out of the numbing, post-apocalyptic restaurant Hell of pretentiousness and mediocrity that threatens to engulf us all. It makes us believe that the future is shiny, bright, beautiful, delicious—and probably Québécois. This book will change your life." —Anthony Bourdain,

There is a sense of history to the book and their deep love of Montreal is evident throughout. There is richness in detail and usually a lovely idiosyncratic story for each recipe that makes the book as much of an engaging read as a straightforward cookbook." ~Judge Alice Waters, Food52's Piglet Tournament of Cookbooks"',

The final text of the Hague Convention on the Recognition and Enforcement of Foreign Judgments in Civil or Commercial Matters (the Convention) was agreed on 2 July 2019.
The Convention promotes greater certainty in cross-border dealings and aims to reduce the timeframe for recognition and enforcement of judgments, by enabling the free circulation of judgments in civil and commercial matters across borders.
Uruguay became the first state to sign the new Convention, however it will only enter into force after it has been ratified by at least two contracting states.
Scope of the Convention
The Convention is applicable to judgments given by contracting state courts in civil and commercial matters. However, it does not apply to judgments from non-contracting state courts and it expressly excludes various types of matters including insolvency, defamation, privacy and intellectual property.
When will a judgment be recognised and enforced?
The Convention identifies an exhaustive list of grounds for recognition and enforcement. If one of the grounds is met, the judgment is eligible for recognition and enforcement. However, if none of the grounds are met, it remains open to contracting state courts to recognise and enforce the judgment under domestic law.
The grounds for enforcement look to the connection between the state of origin of the judgment and the parties to, or subject matter of, the dispute. For example, a judgment will be eligible for recognition and enforcement where the defendant consented to the jurisdiction of the court of origin, where the defendant maintained a branch, agency or other establishment in the state of origin (and the claim arose out of the activities of that branch, agency or establishment) or where the defendant argued on the merits before the court of origin without contesting jurisdiction.
However, recognition and enforcement of judgments may (not must) be refused in certain circumstances. These include where the defendant was not notified of the claim in a sufficient time and manner as to enable them to arrange for their defence. Recognition and enforcement may also be refused on public policy grounds or where there was an agreement for the dispute to be determined by the courts of a state other than the state of origin.
The procedure for recognition and enforcement of judgments under the Convention is governed by the law of the state where the judgment is proposed to be enforced.
Impact of the Convention
The new Convention marks a large step forward after the 2005 Hague Convention on Choice of Court Agreements (the Choice of Court Convention), which is limited to the enforcement of exclusive jurisdiction agreements in civil and commercial matters, and judgments given by the courts designated by such agreements.
At present, the Choice of Court Convention has been ratified by Denmark, the European Union, Montenegro and Singapore. As we have previously reported, the United Kingdom has suspended its accession until after it has exited the European Union. Various other states, including the People's Republic of China (PRC), have signed the Choice of Court Convention but must ratify it before becoming subject to its terms.
The success and impact of the new Convention will be dictated by the number of contracting states willing to sign and ratify it. Several Asian states were represented at the diplomatic session which agreed the text of the Convention, including the PRC, Singapore, South Korea and Japan.
If the new Convention is widely taken up, it could have a far-reaching impact on the ease and efficiency of cross-border recognition and enforcement of judgments, giving judgment creditors another route to enforce judgments more effectively in contracting states.

What happened at the well at Beersheba?
Now we look at how the deep supply of water was utilized in the Old Testament and what it meant to those who found it.
Genesis 21, 22, 26:23-33 and 46:1-5
The first we hear about Beersheba is when Hagar and Ishmael were sent away from Abraham's family. Feeling all alone and deserted Hagar and Ishmael arrived at Beersheba, there they were met by God and were blessed. (Genesis 21).
A short time later God took Abraham to the same place and made an oath with his enemy after conflict over wells.
Much later after God's test with Isaac, Abraham stayed at Beersheba. (Genesis 22).
Then many years later God led Isaac to the very same place for a blessing and peace with his enemies! (Genesis 26).
They all met with God who told them not to be afraid and God blessed them.
Hagar heard that her son Ishmael would be blessed with a heritage similar to his father Abraham.
Both Abraham and his son Isaac had conflicts with their enemies over wells in that area and after pronouncing the oaths of peace with their enemies received the same blessing from God. (Gen 21:25-30)
Because of these oaths Beersheba can mean well of the oath but margin notes say Beersheba can also mean a well of seven.
Why seven?
What else is interesting about the well at Beersheba?
Hagar did not have to dig! (Gen. 21:14-20)
The well was there and obviously easy for her to get to the water.
When talking to Abimelech Abraham said he had dug the well (Gen 21:30)
However when Isaac went there later, his workers had to dig the well. (Gen 26:32)
As with other wells nearby the well was blocked up by those not wanting the flow of water to continue.
Then many years later Jacob, Abraham's grandson, went to see his long lost son Joseph in Egypt and went via Beersheba.
God met him and once more with a further promise. (Gen 46:1-5)
This time God promised to be with him in Egypt, he would meet Joseph and make him a great nation.
God had taken both of Abraham's sons and grandson to the same well and blessed them, confirming God's individual promises to each one.
But Jacob had the promise of God's presence with him in a foreign land.
How thirsty are we for the Spiritual water?
Will we keep going even when the enemy attacks?
All these things happened at the well at Beersheba.
What can we learn from these interesting occurrences?
First, when you seem to have everything going against you with those you love turn against you, look to God's provision and blessing.
Beersheba is obviously in a desert area and so worthy of making oaths of peace with the enemy to keep it in one's control.
Thinking of water as a symbol of the Holy Spirit it is important that we have ready access to the Holy Spirit when we are going through dry places in our lives.
As we receive the flow of the Holy Spirit God moves we are blessed and our enemies become our friends and with Jacob we have the promise of God's presence with us.
But wells in desert places are places of rest and nourishment and it takes a concerted effort and cost to reach the thirst quenching water.
In the Bible there are any other references show Beersheba to be a destination in the desert area.
A place to stop, find nourishment before continuing your journey.
These happened many years a go, but there was another episode relating to Beersheba during the 1st World War.
In mid 1917 decisive action was needed to capture Beersheba.
The army, especially the horses, desperately needed water.
With daylight fading, the order was given for the Australian 4th Light Horse Brigade to attack.
Up to 800 Light Horsemen, in three lines, 300 to 500 metres apart.
It was a reckless headlong gallop into the setting sun but they needed water.
The horses galloped some five metres apart.
For almost three kilometres they charged over exposed ground against small arms and artillery fire.
Once the horses got the smell of water, there was no stopping them.
They were thirsty so they kept going through all the enemy fire.
As we travel through life we must know where to find a well, a source of the Holy Spirit, when are going through dry "desert" experiences.
The questions are we thirsty enough to fight through all forces in our way and how can we build up a reserve of the Holy Spirit, so there will be available us when we are going through desert experiences.
Can we find our own Beersheba?
Yes, as in a desert, there is a river that flows deep underground.
We just need to allow it to flow up and out of our lives.

Designs to build Kazakhstan's latest eco-plaza along Astana's 'green axis' have been unveiled by Foster & Partners.
Abu Dhabi Plaza is an astounding matrix of buildings with a retail and leisure sector and a hotel cluster at the base that rises to form a series of office and residential towers to the north.
The design concept has been driven by the extreme local climate. An innovative thermal hot water collecting system for the south façade is being considered to maximise solar gain in the colder months. The north façade is strongly insulated to harness heat, and appears like a solid grid interspersed with random glazing.
The Aldar Property development incorporates a series of temperate year-round winter gardens which allows light to be channelled deep inside the buildings. The highly efficient compact scheme is an effective means of maximising the potential for thermal insulation during the colder winter months, when temperatures can reach as low as minus 40 degrees Celsius.

Designer Definitions
One of the most frequent topics of discussion to come up whenever Deb and I run a seminar or presentation regards identity and definitions.
In some states, of course, the phrase interior designer can only be used by a licensed professional, so many believe, by default, that interior decorator is a "lesser" choice. I'd like to point out, however, that many of our best known, most praised design talents in the U.S. were (and are) proud to be know as decorators… reaching back to Dorothy Draper, Billy Baldwin, Sister Parish, Mario Buatta, Charlotte Moss, etc.
But this concern over "what to call myself" is usually a cover debate for "how can I charge", meaning does a designer have a greater perceived value to the client than a decorator? If you've ever found yourself having this discussion with yourself, your staff, etc. you've allowed yourself to become distracted from the key issue by semantics.
And what is the key issue? You need to ask how you perceive yourself. Are you a color specialist? Are you a fantastic resource? Are you a good listener? Are you a problem-solver? Are you a space strategist? It all goes back to how you present yourself to your clients and what value you bring to them.
So our response to the designer/decorator debate? It doesn't really matter that much. Get yourself out of the design-world bubble and start thinking bigger. Who gets called in when there's an issue that can't be solved internally? Who gets paid the big bucks to advise, research, strategize and plan? Consultants!
You don't have to call yourself a design consultant, but you do need to think of yourself that way. Why? Well, how about this really, really brief summary of Alan Weiss' book Million Dollar Consulting.
* Focus on the value you deliver.
* Never count hours or charge by the hour.
* Make a case for what you can deliver. Once you've got your client on board, present your "fee" as an given.
According to Weiss, the client will almost always bite.
As always, we welcome your thoughts on this!

Nepal honours police canines in 'day of the dogs' festival
Nepal's 'day of the dogs' took place yesterday, November 6, in a festival of colour that saw canines decorated with colourful dye and garlands to celebrate that special relationship with humans.
Footage of the festival shows dogs from the Central Police Dog Training School in Kathmandu, Nepal. These dogs are used for investigation, finding explosive or drugs and even in riot control and crime patrol.
So to celebrate on this day, the police dogs get the day off from being law-enforcers and instead are showered with love and affection. They are also given special treats including milk, eggs, meat or high-quality dog food.
Kukur Tihar - or 'day of the dogs' - takes place on the second day of the annual weeklong autumn Hindu festival of Tihar. Nepalese Hindus celebrate the 'day of the dogs' the day before Diwali every year.
The filmer said of the day: "[Day of the dogs] is dedicated solely to the celebration and pampering of canines for their cherished relationship with humans."
Dogs are believed by tradition to be messengers and guard-dogs for Lord Yamaraj, the Hindu god of death.

What is your opinion regarding Abu Isa and his Jamaah (Jamaatul Muslimin)?
Researched, compiled and presented by Abu Abdullah Hamid ibn Yousuf and group of students of knowledge under the supervision of Al-Imam Sheikh Muhammad Al-Rifaee Al-Hashmi Al-Qureshifor further information: Al-Jama'ah Publications United Kingdom
Figures prove Islam to be the fastest growing religion in the world and a muslim can gain comfort in knowing that there are 1.6 billion Muslims in the world today. However the Ummah is sadly having to learn that this figure bears a false sense of security, and even though the Ummah can boast to have such a great adherence, it is weak, humiliated and extremely vulnerable against both intellectual and physical onslaughts from hostile forces.What we are witnessing today is that many Muslims from various generations are embracing concepts that have been imported from the philosophies of Marxism, Hinduism, Christianity and many other erroneous beliefs. And thus, the Ummah is ideologically perplexed and does not have a single, united voice. When the Ummah is required to display solidarity, it fails miserably and exposes its weakness and confusion for all to see
(pg 6)Under the banner of War on Terror, innocent Muslim families have been butchered indiscriminately. B-52 bombers have bombarded wedding ceremonies, hospitals have been blown up, ambulances have been fired at and populated towns have been bulldozed into the dustbin of history. Masaajid have been demolished and the Quran desecrated. Incidents of torture and rape at Guantanamo Bay in Cuba and Abu Ghraib (Iraq) prisons have scarred the minds of Muslims globally. (pg 7)In Europe, France prohibited the wearing of the Hijab for Muslim sisters. Suddenly other nations took confidence from this and they too jumped on the bandwagon of secularism. 5 million Muslims in France were unable to do anything about this. (pg 8)Muslims themselves have stooped so low in order to exhibit their own acceptance of Western values, they too have started to make documentaries against the Hijab, Jihad and Fundamentalism. Television show hosted by Muslims try to ridicule Islamic verdicts and teachings. For many Muslims who reside in the West, this is an indication of successful integration, as it may seem that Muslims are finally bursting into the mainstream media. What they overlook is that our celebrity Muslims are selling their Islam in order to make temporary appearance on the small- screen. (pg 8) Recently, the West celebrated the Europe 2004 Football Tournament and Olympics, the disbelievers proudly chanted their national anthems, whilst Muslims continue to suffer silently. The disbelievers enthusiastically flock at stadiums and discos, Muslims reluctantly congregate at funerals and burials. As the global media converges for sports coverage, there is no one who is committed enough to report on the systematic annihilation of Muslims in Afghanistan, Iraq, Palestine, Kashmir and Chechnya.However today, many deceived Muslims have misapplied the excuse of ignorance, and they have used ignorance as an excuse for not knowing the correct method of worshipping Allah (azza wa jall). In fact, ignorance in Islam is not an excuse but rather, it is clear misguided path that will lead one to the Hell fire. (pg 210)Many Muslims sadly, voice pro-democratic opinions, statements and ultimate solution for the world political and social order. In truth, very few people understand the true meaning and objective of this ideology. (pg 231)Which government gathered to bomb Muslims in Iraq, Afghanistan, Sudan, Libya and Palestine? Which political parties agree with the establishment and maintenance of the State of Israel which occupies the Holy Land and murders thousands of Muslims? They all recognize this treacherous and illegitimate State. (pg 260)It is heartbreaking to witness how Muslims continue to disunite with one another, and refuse to help one another due to trivialities, but they burry to unite under the banners of the disbelievers. This has been witnessed on occasions such as the anti-war efforts that have been instigated and headed by kuffar. On anti-war marches it is not surprising to see Muslims dancing to the tunes of the Communists, Homosexuals and drug addicts who march side by side with Muslim fathers, mothers, brothers, sisters, sons and daughters.Recently Muslims from all backgrounds chose to vote for a party called RESPECT. Leading campaigners of RESPECT party lead the anti-war initiative in the UK, thus generating immense enthusiasm and support from Muslim groups and parties. These parties sent out e-mails to thousands of people asking them to use their cote to elect members of RESPECT into local administrative authorities. Many Muslims obliged and caste their votes for RESPECT, which calls itself The Unity Coalition Respect, Equality, Socialism, Peace, Environment, Community, Trade. So the Muslims chose to unite under banners of Kufr and shirk, and supported people who would never implement the Shariah of Allah but they still persevere in dividing themselves. (pg 265)It is indisputably established through this episode alone, that the Companions of the Messenger (sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam) understood that spying upon the believers, on behalf of the disbelievers, is an action of apostasy and constitutes Kufr al-akbar (greater disbelief). This is because Hatib b Abi Baltaah confessed that what he had committed was an action of Kufr. This is clearly evident from his very own statement to the Prophet (sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam) when he stated:
I did not do this (with the intention) of Kufr or apostasy nor did I do it to choose disbelief after Islam. A second sahabi, one of the best known personalities in Islamic History, Umar bin al-Khattab (rahimahullaah) too understand Hatibs action to be one of Kufr. Due to this Umar said to the Prophet (sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam): O Allahs Prophet (sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam)! Allow me to chop off the head of this hypocrite! And finally Rasulullah (sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam), indicated that He (sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam) understood Hatib's apparent action as one of apostasy, as He (sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam) made an excuse for Hatib and spared his life. (pg 275)
Today, the Muslims are suffering in almost every part of the world. They are divided and humiliated. This is because many of them do not possess the basic knowledge of Islam and are following their religious leaders blindly. Each person has associated himself with a particular group or party that portrays a certain concept or belief. Someone is either Salafi, Tablighi, Jihadi, Deobandi and so on. However, no one is prepared to call himself simply Muslim. Regarding this, Allah said in the Quran
It is He (Allah) who has named you Muslimeen
(al- Hajj 22:78) (page357)Looking at the situation of the Muslims today we can see that Islam is no longer our way of life because it has become something strange and unfamiliar in relation to the modern world. (pg 359)

"...Don't interpret your life or you will find that something is missing. Nothing is missing. Your interpretations for or against is the illusion you are here to break through. Accept your life as it is. Then, every belief that does not honor you or does not honor others will fall away because there is nothing to support it. Into the empty space you make in your heart by your refusal to judge, love's presence flows. Now your companion has arrived."

You've served watermelon at every BBQ all summer long, with that memorable trail of black seeds throughout the backyard.
Take your enjoyment of this refreshing, thirst-quenching fruit to new heights with these tempting food and drink ideas:
Chop it into fresh salads and salsas: Watermelon Salad with Feta and Mint is an elegant way to highlight this fruit anywhere from a BBQ to a sit-down dinner party. The creamy, dense, salty cheese complements the sweet, juicy watermelon, and the flavors of both ingredients come out even more with the addition of mint. The salad goes well with a light drizzle of olive oil and balsamic vinegar, or a red wine vinaigrette. Try it with Narragansett Creamery's Salty Sea Feta!
Watermelon also partners well with creamy avocado! Try a salad with watermelon, avocado slices and grilled shrimp. Dress it with a simple vinaigrette, or give it some fire with minced jalapenos.
Surprise your party guests and family with Spicy Watermelon Salsa. Dice watermelon, mango, and cucumber. Mix the fruit and vegetable dice together. Then stir in finely chopped, fresh basil and red onion, along with minced jalapeno peppers for a kick. Adjust the flavor with sugar, sea salt and pepper. Serve with tortilla chips or as a topping for fish or chicken.
Cook it as part of a complete meal: Believe it or not, watermelon goes well with meat, too. Sweet watermelon and spicy sirloin steak, both cut in strips, form the base of a stir-fry with any other additions you're thinking about. Stir fry in a soy sauce, or make a tamari-based version if you're gluten free. Add ginger and garlic, sugar snap peas and fresh corn off on the cob, along with crushed red pepper for some heat.
Or make a chicken dish brighter, and sweeter, with watermelon as part of the dish or sauce. Grill the chicken and add watermelon salsa. Or puree the watermelon and bake the chicken in the oven to infuse the meet with its full flavor.
Turn it into a drink (or make it as cold as ice): With its high proportion of water, watermelon lends itself well to making drinks. Blend it with water, ice, fresh lime juice and a little sugar. Garnish with fresh mint.
Watermelon also makes fun ice cubes. Simply puree and free in cubes. Add them to seltzer or still water for a beautiful and refreshing drink that kids and adults alike will love!
We have plenty of watermelons available in the produce department for all of your creations!

|Archos: Avideo 24 - A4000
|Anschluss: Video Slot, Zorro II
The Avideo 24 - A4000 is really a card for adapting the original Avideo 24 for use in an A4000. As the original Avideo connects directly to the motherboard of the A3000 (possibly the A2000 also), it cannot be connected directly to the A4000 motherboard so instead it is attached to the Avideo 24 - A4000 PCB which plugs into both a Zorro slot, and the video slot.

Review: Soul Weaver by Hailey Edwards
Soul Weaver by Hailey Edwards
2012-08-07 (Forever Yours)
Heroine: Chloe McCrea – Agoraphobic, Marked Soul
Hero: Nathaniel Berwyn – Fallen Angel, Soul Weaver
Setting: USA
An archangel who roams Earth collecting souls of the newly departed, Nathanial is the sole witness to the accident that should have taken Chloe's life. Seduced by the purity of her soul, he defies Providence by saving her life. But his attempt at kindness marks Chloe for damnation, and makes her an unwitting pawn in a game of unholy ambition. Now together they must fight the demons of Hell itself-for a love that defies the boundaries of Heaven and Earth.
Chloe McCrea was supposed to die. Her vehicle struck head-on by a semi, there wasn't much chance at surviving the accident. That is, if Nathaniel Berwyn hadn't witnessed the crash. Not allowed to interfere in mortal life or death scenarios, Nathaniel finds himself drawn to the scene by Chloe's soul. Bright and shiny and good, it's a refreshing change from the dark and filthy souls he usually sees.
Nathaniel is a fallen angel—a soul weaver and harvester. He is charged with collecting corrupted souls and then weaving them into cloth for his and his fellow fallen angels featherless wings.
As he stands next to Chloe's body, watching her die, he waits for an angel to come and collect her soul and take it to Heaven. When none show up, he realizes that somehow Chloe has no tethers to her soul—no one who loves her or whom she loves in return. So her heavenly beacon won't work. No angels, no escort to Heaven. Her soul will simply linger.
Knowing he shouldn't, Nathaniel takes drastic efforts to keep her soul in her body so that paramedics can arrive and resuscitate her. And from that point on, both Nathaniel and Chloe's lives are going to get messy.
I enjoyed the beginning of this book, the world-building and the mythos. It was an interesting take on angel/demon mythology that I've never read before. It reminded me a bit of some sort of Larissa Ione's Demonica series meets Nalini Singh's Guild Hunter series combo… while being uniquely it's own thing. It really snagged my attention.
And, at first, so did Chloe's agoraphobia. I thought, 'A heroine afraid to leave her home? That's new.' Unfortunately, then my thoughts quickly became, 'This heroine doesn't leave her home. Not much happens to a person who doesn't leave their home.' It really was about as boring as it sounds and completely bogged the story down.
I spent 40% of the book reading about Chloe's day to day activities in her book store or above it in her apartment. Over and over. At one point, seven or more pages are dedicated to Chloe helping her friend's two kids put a movie in the DVD player, order a pizza, eat said pizza, call a cab for her friend and the two kids to get home in… and then go to bed.
It was not enough. By the time action and intrigue kicked in again, I had pretty much lost all interest. It took me three days to get to the 83% marker… Where I decided to just give up. Which I hate to do.
Soul Weaver has quite a bit going for it. Unique world, appealing characters, sharp writing… but it was missing that something for me. That punch. That panache.
Favorite Quote:
When she turned, she smiled up at him. "I should have planned this better. Dimmed lights, poured wine, done something to seduce you."
"Your every breath seduces me." He cradled her face in his hands, leaned in close enough her tongue could have traced his lips.
Thoughts While Reading:


text:
Last year I attended four beautiful weddings. In the next six months, I'll go to five. This morning, I was invited to my first wedding of 2015... in Australia. There is a very specific joy and hell of being a frequent wedding guest -- especially as a single woman -- which is why when I read Jen Doll's memoir, Save The Date: The Occasional Mortifications of a Serial Wedding Guest, I felt an instant kinship with her.
Doll has never been married herself, but she has watched 30 couples take the trip down the aisle. She wrote about these experiences for The Hairpin in April 2012, with the hope of turning it all into a book. The result is a witty, easily-devoured memoir, simultaneously personal and universal.
"Weddings are weird. I've been thinking about them for a lot longer than I expected."
In Doll's world, the story of the wedding guest reigns supreme.
"When I go to a wedding, I do want it to be about the love of the couple, but I also want it to be about how much I love the couple, and how much the couple loves me and wants me there," she told me over lunch. "I think that gets lost in modern depictions of weddings where it's all about the bride and groom and having a 'perfect' day."
We talked about the weddings we've been to as well as the ones we have yet to attend, the frustrating parts of being a wedding guest -- and the magic of the events themselves. "Weddings are weird," Doll said. "I've been thinking about them for a lot longer than I expected."
After being a frequent wedding guest and never a bride into your 30s, you learn a thing or many about romantic relationships (and platonic ones), being single and what the commercial insanity of our wedding culture really means.
Being a wedding guest will probably make you start thinking about the state of your own love life. "It's like going to prom, but as a grownup," Doll told me. "Weddings are bigger than everyday life. At a wedding, you're forced to look at yourself against other people's milestones."
Doll, who is currently single, is refreshingly honest about her uncertainty that she will ever be a bride. We discussed the romantic energy implicit in any wedding celebration, and the way you inevitably start reflecting on your own romantic desires, whether or not they include a white dress. "Going to weddings makes you think, 'I kinda want this thing' -- the love thing -- even if you don't want the wedding thing," she said.
Doll (right) at a childhood wedding.
It's really easy to "be an a**hole" at a wedding. One of the best parts of Doll's memoir is that she turns a discerning eye on her past behavior, both good and bad. And some of what she describes isn't pretty. (She recounts a wedding after-party at which she drunkenly threw her expensive footwear into the street in front of the bride's mother.)
"Going to weddings makes you think, 'I kinda want this thing' -- the love thing -- even if you don't want the wedding thing."
"There's the venn diagram of appropriateness for a guest and appropriateness for a bride, and in that crossover area there's both of them behaving kind of badly," Doll said. "And so you want to exist in the outer part of that chart, but often neither person does."
There's a reason that it's so tempting to find romance (even if it's temporary) at a wedding."Blame it on romantic comedies," Doll said, when I asked her about the appeal of a wedding meet cute. "There's a kind of romantic fantasy aspect where we're all making up narratives in our head all the time. And weddings all form their own narratives." And really, what makes a better story: Having a late-night rendezvous at a destination wedding with your old debate team arch-nemesis (yes, this actually happened to Doll), or going on a Tinder date?
"Whether it's someone from your past or the idea of meeting someone new, a wedding has all this extra stuff propping it up and making it a good story," said Doll. "And we love a good story."
A wedding tells you relatively little about a couple's actual love story. Save The Date chronicles Doll's attendance at 17 weddings, at which she has varying degrees of fun and varying degrees of closeness with the couples getting married. "Looking back at all of [the weddings I've been to], I think that love is a really individualistic thing," Doll said. "Relationships work in many different ways. And when we try to judge them on some kind of wedding scale, everything ends up screwed up."
The author as a bridesmaid.
The wedding guest experience changes significantly between your 20s and 30s. Today, going to weddings over the course of two decades is par for the course. And that means that as your wedding-going lifespan grows, so do the number of life stages that coincide with said weddings. In Doll's experience, being a wedding guest in your 20s, especially before you've "established yourself as a real person," comes with a large dose of idealism and a lack of practicality. "In my 20s, I never thought to say no to a wedding, because, you don't put a price on your friendships and love," she said. "That sounds really corny and romantic, but I thought: 'This is what a credit card is for.'"
"A wedding has all this extra stuff propping it up and making it a good story. And we love a good story."
As you enter your 30s, not only do you start really valuing the convenience of local nuptials and become a little less "starry-eyed" in general, but the wedding circus becomes less of a focus. "I think the later weddings are really moving in a different way," Doll said. "There's a little less parental involvement; the wedding is less important and the couple is more important. Of course that's a generalization, but I think when you see a couple that is older and they've finally found each other, that's really special."
At the core of any celebration of love is a celebration of friendship. "We think about weddings as something between the couple, but it's really so much about the friendships and the community involved," said Doll. There's a reason that a couple invites friends and family to celebrate their love and puts on a giant party for all of the guests. It's a celebration of connection, both romantic and otherwise.
That's also why Doll is so put off by wedding traditions like the bouquet toss. "Maybe I hate it so much because of romantic comedies that make it seem like women all want this so badly," Doll said. "And that goes against the idea that there is friendship at the heart of weddings -- not just a race to be the bride. The bouquet toss assumes we all want this thing, that we all want it from you and that we're gonna undermine our own dignity to get it."
Weddings remind us that it's OK to look for love. There are a litany of well-documented reasons why certain wedding customs are difficult for many modern women to square with. Yet there is something about a wedding that can make even the most socially critical among us fall back on (some) tradition. And tradition, when you are choosing it thoughtfully and making it your own, can be a beautiful thing.
"How do you be an independent, proud, feminist woman, and also want to be in love with someone and have them take care of you (and you take care of them, too)?" asked Doll. "I think we disdain women who go through life saying, 'I just want a boyfriend.' But in the reaction against that behavior, we deny that there is something human about wanting to be loved, and love and have a grand celebration of that love."
"There is something human about wanting to be loved, and love and have a grand celebration of that love."
Ultimately, we love weddings, because we "want to believe." Despite the wedding-industrial complex, the frustratingly retro traditions and the borderline absurd costs that come along with being a wedding guest or the bride or groom, we keep going to weddings because we love love. We put aside our misgivings and our cynical natures for 24 hours, and we believe in the cliché.
"We want to believe that our friends can fall in love," Doll told me. "We want to believe that we can fall in love. We want to believe that we all get a beautiful special moment with the people we care about around us, to praise and celebrate us and our entry into a new stage of life."

Dan stared at the towering ossuary, a vast structure of jumbled bones reaching towards the slate sky like the grasping hands of a thousand undead. The only thing he could think to say was: 'How the bloody hell did this get planning permission?'
Beside him, Tina laughed: 'It's a pop-up, it'll probably be gone in a couple of weeks. Makes a change from the usual.' She gestured at the sad-looking rows of shuttered shops surrounding it like gravel around a grave.
'Yeah, but what is it supposed to be? I mean, you'd think there would be a sign or something.'
'It's probably a restaurant. They always are. Best case scenario, it's an ironic homage to Halloween-themed breakfast cereals from the '80s. Worst case scenario, it's something political or, even worse, it's a work of conceptual art.' Tina raised her phone and took a photo.
'I don't know how they expect anyone to visit it. It isn't like they've rolled out the welcome mat.' Dan put on a silly voice: 'Welcome, welcome to the house of bones. All the fun of the graveyard in one easy-to-reach location.'
The skies darkened. Tina laughed. She tapped her phone a couple of times: 'Maybe it's got a website?' She tapped a few more times and raised an eyebrow: 'Apparently not.'
'Quelle surprise. It looks like it hasn't even discovered the telegraph, let alone the internet.'
'No, it's modern. It's some underground thing that's probably shared by word of mouth. On social media, of course. Do people have actual conversations any more?'
'Aren't we?'
Tina shook her head: 'This is more of a discussion than a conversation, I think.'
Amongst the matchstick sculpture of femurs, tibias and scapulas, a single skull stared down at them. Slowly, its hollow sockets began to glow bright orange. Two rows of weathered teeth chattered eagerly, the noise skittering through the air like crickets in a campsite.
Tina's laughter howled along the deserted street. Dan was about to make a sarcastic comment when the air rumbled. The sky flashed like a selfie and then the rain started to pour. The kind of heavy, opaque rain that Hollywood film-makers like to think that they invented. Gasping, Tina gestured towards the ossuary's yawning mouth: 'Come on, let's get inside!'
As another lightning flash stabbed the sky, Dan pointed his thumb over his shoulder: 'The bus shelter is closer.'
'Fair enough.' Tina said. They ran towards it. According to the parts of the timetable that poked out from behind the burnt and graffiti-stained glass, the 41 bus would arrive in five minutes. More like ten, Dan thought.
Tina huddled close to Dan on the cold plastic bench. Behind the sheets of rain, the other side of the road wasn't even visible. Then, a pair of lights appeared in the distance. Tina smiled. It's on time! For half a second, she thought about getting her phone out and documenting this unprecedented occurrence.
The lights got closer. It was only when they were the size of footballs that something began to feel wrong. Neither Dan nor Tina could place what it was. Perhaps it was because the light was a subtly different hue than standard bus headlights? Perhaps the two orbs were a centimetre off from their remembered models of what a bus looked like? They didn't know. Both of them just stared.
As the lights got closer, they separated. A silhouette appeared against the rain, like a preliminary sketch. With slopping footsteps, the skeleton stepped out of the rain. It raised a large iron lantern and fixed two hollow sockets on the dumbfounded couple.
Dan regained the power of speech: 'Nice cos…' His voice broke off as he realised that the skeleton's neck was too thin to be a costume. Tina gasped.
Seconds later, another lantern-bearing skeleton appeared. In a voice like teeth on a blackboard, it said: 'Sorry folks, we don't usually do outreach but the roof is leaking. Any donations will be very much appreciated.'
The other one rattled its head: 'Yeah, we're already on our final warning with the health and safety people. Give us a hand. Or maybe a leg?'
Dan laughed and fumbled for his wallet. The skeletons shook their heads. Tina's eyes widened. They didn't want money, they wanted…
But, before she could scream, the skeletons said: 'We've got wi-fi and free coffee. Artisanal cupcakes too.'
Who could argue with that?

DAVENPORT, Iowa - When Hillary Clinton reached the stage of the Col Ballroom, 58-year-old Mark Hammes shouted himself hoarse. "Give 'em hell!" he roared in a rasp that turned heads.
After the speech, he rifled through his wallet for the document he uses to defend Clinton against her multiplying critics - a list, clipped from the newspaper, of the many attacks on American embassies. All of them were worse than the 2012 Benghazi attack, so why did people keep attacking Clinton?
"Here's Lebanon - 275 Marines killed," said Hammes, pointing to a disaster that happened under President Ronald Reagan. "Somebody had the audacity to tell me, 'Well, none of them were diplomats.' Come on! One diplomat is worse than 275 soldiers? You can be stupid, but not that stupid."
Another Clinton backer, Margie Schwaniger, 64, sounded exasperated at what she thinks is an unfair obsession with the email scandal that has haunted the Democratic presidential front-runner for months and has now escalated.
"It's the media," she said. "Even today - ooh, the emails! . . . There's no new information on that story, but if you listen to NBC, they're all after the drama."
As the Iowa caucuses near, Clinton's supporters here are feeling defensive. What once seemed to be a coronation in the making has turned into a real battle, exposing weaknesses that could hamper her through future primaries and, if she wins the nomination, a hotly contested general election.
The challenge from Sen. Bernie Sanders, once welcomed as a way to tune up the presumptive nominee, has highlighted her ties to unpopular Wall Street banks and accentuated her image as an establishment politician in a year of anti-establishment fervor. Her handling of the email controversy, which reemerged Friday when the State Department said that 22 emails that passed through Clinton's private server when she was secretary of state contained "top secret" information, has laid out a road map for Republicans to tear away at her commander-in-chief credentials. A lingering FBI inquiry into whether the server put national secrets at risk adds to a sense of uncertainty.
Many Democrats who plan to caucus for Sanders worry that the perception by some of Clinton as dishonest has made her less electable than the democratic socialist from Vermont who honeymooned in the Soviet Union. On Friday night, at a Sanders stop just blocks away from Clinton's, the complaints tumbled forth.
"As a woman, I'd love to have a woman in the White House, but she's not the one," said Spring Briggs, 36. "Her trust has been ruined, time and again, all these lies. And it's not gotten better."
"She seems too pre-scripted," said Jerry Miller, 40, a worker at the nearby John Deere plant. "Her and Bill made their way to the White House, and don't get me wrong, things were running really well. But they forgot how everyday Americans deal with certain things."
Miller's 18-year old stepdaughter, Alyssa McCorkle, did not remember the Bill Clinton era. Yet all year, she had absorbed negative stories about Hillary Clinton. "When I hear about Benghazi and I hear about the secret emails. I don't want a candidate for president to maybe be indicted," she said.
The email scandal was fresh again, but Miller's phrase - "everyday Americans" - harked back to Clinton's April 15 launch video. She had followed it with a road trip to Davenport, which set the tone for the coming bruising. A campaign aide made sure to invite some locals to a coffee shop, which drew mockery. "Campaign staff DROVE 'ordinary' Iowans to Hillary's first campaign stop," screamed a headline in the Daily Mail, a British tabloid.
At the time, Clinton enjoyed a net favorable rating of six percentage points in the Gallup poll - down from her highs at State, but better than any Republican seeking the presidency. Among Democrats, her net favorable rating was in the high 50s. Both numbers waned all year, bouncing back after Vice President Biden belatedly decided against a primary challenge, then - more surprising to Democrats - waning again.
The email story has wounded Clinton without any effort from Sanders. He helped Clinton deflect the issue during an October debate when he said that Americans were "sick and tired of hearing about your damn emails." In a statement Friday evening, Sanders called the investigation "a legal process in place which should proceed and not be politicized" and urged Iowa to continue its "serious discussion of the issues."
Sanders was able to say that because the issues have cut his way, and Republicans see a general election where they could exploit that. To their surprise, the Sanders who is seen only though the prism of a Clinton challenge and a populist agenda - the Sanders not easily shoved aside as a socialist - has become broadly popular.
"If somebody had told us a year ago that Sanders would be the most liked candidate in the presidential race, we would have told them they were crazy," said Stuart Stevens, a strategist for Mitt Romney's 2012 GOP campaign.
When Sanders entered the race, many Clinton supporters welcomed him as a grandfatherly figure who could nudge the front-runner to the left, but who lacked the cross-demographic appeal to defeat her.
Instead, to many liberals, Sanders had made Clinton's policy shifts look timid and insincere.
She praised early versions of the Trans-Pacific Partnership, only to turn against it amid criticism from the left. She liked the idea of states and localities setting minimum wages, then came out for a national increase to $12. She held off until September before opposing the Keystone XL Pipeline, a position that lined up with Sanders's.
In Davenport, although Sanders did not mention Clinton's name, activist and intellectual Cornel West called her out repeatedly in his introduction.
"We know the difference between a small 'D' Democrat and a Wall Street Democrat, capital D," said West, with a vigor that bordered on ecstasy.
Republicans have begun to exploit the liberal disquiet surrounding Clinton. In Iowa, the Ending Spending Action Fund largely funded by Chicago Cubs co-owner Todd Ricketts has put $600,000 into an ad cheekily describing Sanders as "too liberal."
Dan Backer, treasurer of the conservative Stop Hillary super PAC, said that Republicans could take advantage of how many in the Democratic left feel uneasy.
"When you say she's in Wall Street's pocket, that's the sort of thing that will hurt enthusiasm" among liberals, Backer said. "Progressives don't see the difference between her and any Republican."
In Davenport, and in all of her closing rallies, Clinton has tried to change that by portraying herself as a reliable progressive with feet more firmly planted than Sanders. He spoke in broad terms, with national statistics on poverty. Clinton told granular, ripped-from-the-evening news stories of local companies letting Iowa down with tax inversions - "absolutely un-American."
"I'd rather under-promise and over-deliver," she said, one of several elliptical references to an opponent who assured his 3 million donors that they had joined a "political revolution."
Die-hard Clinton supporters say that they appreciate her will to survive.
"I just think Hillary has stood for the values that I am for for a long time," said Mary Stevens, of Marshalltown.
Asked whether any of the negative headlines that have emerged during the campaign give her pause, Stevens shook her head.
"She has withstood a lot, and she has admitted when she's made some mistakes, just like everybody," Stevens said.
As Clinton's supporters left the venue, they got a hard, well-lit look at a banner someone had draped across an abandoned building.
"Hillary lied. Four people died."

at dockside...
The fortress history is amazing and depressing, as I am made to wonder when human beings will learn to treat one another with more respect. Wars are not the answer.
Along the dock back here in Helsinki I found a boat that I had admired in 2008, still cared for and in the same shape after the past 10 years. That boat, Strömsdal, is a work boat given a better life. A picnic table and chairs on the back deck give a suggestion of what that lovely life might be.
Today I visit two schools in Helsinki. My point is not to point out the failings of American schools, but to highlight ways in which American schools can be made better.
Make, fix, create, and allow American students to learn likewise.

Someone asked on another forum, "What is the protein folding project?", and I'm reproducing my response here.
It's a "distributed computation" project, like SETI (remember that?). These protein folding calculations were broken down into a bunch of small bits that people can calculate in their spare CPU cycles. The results are then combined.
A protein is actually a string of amino acids. Due to chemistry, these proteins "fold" into a 3-dimensional shape. Did you notice that your body is 3-dimensional instead of one long protein string? The reason is "protein folding". By calculating a lot of protein folding patterns, new drugs and other treatments may be discovered. The actual biological properties of the protein depend on how it folds into a 3-dimensional shape.
Instead of paying for a supercomputer cluster, the researchers on the folding project have convinced people to contribute their spare CPU cycles to the project. With sufficiently many participants, this is *MORE PRODUCTIVE* than an actual supercomputing cluster. Any "interesting" results can be re-calculated by the researchers themselves.
The Internet makes such "distributed calculation" projects feasible.
It's been turned into a game, by awarding people points for participating. Instead of rewarding individual users, teams are rewarded as well. Various websites now have "protein folding teams".
