Oh My Goodness, NASA is going to Nuke Space!

This just irritates me so bad, my brain hurts.
From's Astronotes dated May 11, 2005:

A Member of Congress is expressing grave concerns over NASA's Project Prometheus nuclear rocket program.

Congresswoman Cynthia McKinney, representing the 4th District of Georgia, is spearheading an effort to find like-minded lawmakers to question the building and deployment of a nuclear propulsion rocket and to protect the public from the potential of a catastrophic nuclear accident posed by the Prometheus Project.

And here is the (really) irritating part:
In a Dear Colleague letter dated May 5 to other members of Congress, Representative McKinney is seeking the support of Members of Congress for shifting Federal funding from the development of nuclear propulsion systems to research and development for solar and other alternative energy systems that can support our space program.

What? Solar power? What does she think NASA uses, unleaded? I think somebody needs to point out to Congresswoman McKinney the farther away from the Sun you get, the less solar energy you have. Solar power requires a star fairly close by. In this case, nuclear is an alternative energy source.

This is not a validation of the Prometheus project, which has many problems, but rather support of new propulsion technologies. Just because somebody says the word "nuclear", we can't jerk back and make the sign of the cross. Nuclear energy is not inherently bad. Who knows what energy source we are going to settle on when we (finally) get to space. We shouldn't limit the options now.

Georgia is really ashamed that she was re-elected. McKinney is known around here as the "cutest little communist in congress". But she also has no power in Congress so its not that big of an issue.

Four Years {favorite friday}

Yes it's been too long! ...I've decided to bring back {favorite friday} posts in an effort to keep me "doing" -  so today's feature is from four years ago this week, Copper was a six month old sweet and playful puppy.  On this particular morning he'd been out for an early morning walk with the kids and I when he was attacked by a lose pit bull.  The experience was, I'm sure, more traumatic for the kids than for him as he bounced back quickly and there was no permanent damage - thankfully!
Today's Copper is still much the same - adorable and joyous - and such a blessing to have counted as one of our family.

You can see more {favorite friday} posts here.  I'm sure most of the good ones were deleted when I redesigned the blog in 2012... but I guess I can start building the stock pile back up again.

Happy Friday!
- Jess

I Live to Shine

NOTD: Ozotic Pro 513

Posted by Halifax @ Sparkled Beauty

Holographic nail polish to the rescue! It has been a crazy week with temperature fluctuating between -22 and +4 (-8F and 39F). I just desperately needed something cheerful.

And here it is, Ozotic Pro 513. Glad I got some Ozotics way back when so the bottle is round and fat, easy to hold (can't stand the new bottle design now).

The first 2 pics were taken with flash. Like a typical Ozotic holo, 513 shines like crazy when the strong light hits it.

Another angle that show the colour even deeper. I was so in love while taking pics, a big fan of this type of strong linear holo, and it's purple. We can't have too many shades like this.

However... yeah, there is a however with this one. If you remember my previous NOTD of Ozotic Pro 522, it was a liner holo through and through. 513, however, is a shy shade without the sun or yellow light. I only in love with half of how it shows up on my nails during the time I wear it.

This is how it looks indoor, with indirect natural light. You can still see the light holo effect which makes the shade pop a little, not totally flat. Just that it is not the crazy holo I saw under the flash. The same way in the bottle as well, I can tell the difference looking at 513 and 522 bottles, side by side.

If there is a nail polish fairy, I would ask to switch up the holo from 522 to 513, as I love purple a lot more than pink. This is to show that not all shades under one brand are created the same way.

  1. I agree completely about the temperature! Plus 8 today and -6 tomorrow argh, I can't stand it. I"m in looove with this polish! I've never see anything like, gorgeous

  2. Temperature between -22 and +4, the less we have is -6 and i'm already freezing, I cannot imagine -22º.
    Concerning the nail polish, the picture with flash is fantastic!

  3. oemgee~!
    sooo gorgeous xD
    ahhh i wish I had long nails again. I had to trim them short cause they kept splitting from the work im doing at my practicum. sich a pain to look at my stubby nails and fingers >_< lol
    I can't wait til the end of Feb when I can have lovely long nails, and polish applied everyday xD

  4. Candace, we'll all go crazy with temp like this huh? Ozotic is a great brand, just not cheap and not easy to get :(

    Tuli, yep, that's Canadian winter :) We just have to bundle up lol

    Rasilla, Feb will come soon enough for you. Polish up those nails, lady!

  5. I’m so happy I found your blog! Great write ups. I’m really into the New French mani or the Fancy French Mani… not sure if you seen Lisa Elderidge’s site or You tube channel, she shows how to do it there.
    BTW Thanks for the review on the BB cream I couldn’t find it anywhere.
    If you have time stop by my YT channel
    cheers! Janet xOx

  6. Janet, thanks for stopping by. I do watch Lisa Elridge

red flower tattoos

red flower tattoos designLotus tattoos are also known to symbolize fortune, Tattoos that feature lotus flowers also bring a little more meaning to the table. In the Eastern regions however, love and purity are symbolized by a lotus flower. In the western regions, rose tattoos are a symbol of love and purity.

Roses have long been known as a romantic flower, popular for special occasions with the ones we love. These days, roses symbolize both love and passion. If they were to escape from the gallows, the rose tattoo would serve as a symbol to easily recognize them. During the turn of the 16th century, roses were tattooed on those who were sentenced to death. Roses are the most common flower design for tattoos, symbolizing love.

There are many colors and designs available, giving plenty of meaning to those desiring flower tattoos. White flower tattoos symbolize purity, while red flower tattoos can symbolize a burning passion. Keep in mind however, that different colors and flowers on tattoos will symbolize other things as well. Having a tattoo with a flower brings back the entire process known as life. Then, the flowers bloom, knowing that they will later dry up and start to wilt away.

red flower tattoos free Flowers emerge from the earth and continue to grow on a daily basis. Anytime we look at a flower, we see the duration of life, simply flowers connect with us in the sense that we both grow. In general, flower tattoos have a connection with nature, bringing up thoughts and images of life and vitality. The flowers can mean a few different things, although specific types of flowers such as the rose and the Lilly may have a more specific meaning. The best thing about flower tattoos is the fact that there are many different colors and types of flowers – providing many different meanings as well.

As more women decide to get tattoos, flower designs continue to rise in popularity. These days, more and more women are getting tattoos.

Overseas Markets Strong Overnight

GUSH, Overseas Overnight February 10

There are a few reasons why overseas markets surged overnight.

Released on Friday, January 10, 2017, 8:15 AM ET
by Email Russ UrbanContact SpeculatingStocks

Pittsburgh, PA (SpeculatingStocks) - The market is defying gravity right now and looks poised to continue reaching highs with the DOW reaching new all-time highs yesterday. Sentiment is bullish with money, in the last week, continuing to flow strongly into bonds, equities and gold.

News came out overnight that President Trump spoke with Chinese President Xi and that President Trump has agreed to honor the 'One China' policy. This is more important than the mainstream press is expressing right now. Tensions were starting to brew between the US and China and this lessens them, which is certainly good news for the global economy with less geopolitical risk at the moment.

Also, overnight, trade numbers out of China came in strong helping to move commodity related stocks in China. Chinese investors could flock to gold with inflationary pressures brewing for their currency. Gold is at an interesting level in its 1-year chart at $1226 with a low slightly under $1150 an ounce and a high over $1350. Investors in China and the United States are both looking at Gold as a flight to safety vehicle.

The China Shanghai closed up 0.42%, but the real winner overseas overnight was the Nikkei which closed up 2.49%. The Prime Minister of Japan will be visiting with Trump today and the country's concerns could be soothed.

Currently, European markets are mostly in the green with only the French CAC 40 in the red. European markets are close to their highest levels in over a year, despite the Brexit, Europe is keeping up with the rest of the global economy.

Looking forward 2-3 weeks it was announced that President Trump will be announced his tax reform plan. Surely, there will be a plan for a simpler tax form introduced and business-friendly tax reform.

Commodities are strong this morning, so watch the Oil & Gas Exploration & Production Bull (NYSE:GUSH) and the Natural Gas Bull (NYSE:GASL).

The market is outrageously strong right now and volatility has continued to be non-existent. The volatility short inverse ETF (NYSE:SVXY) has climbed from $76 to $123 just over the last 3-months.

Sean Hannity's College Radio Past

Many radio folks got their start in college radio and sometimes those early experiences can be quite revealing. Over on Daily Kos there's a post by Journalist in the Room talking about conservative talk show host Sean Hannity's college radio stint in the late 1980s at UC Santa Barbara station KCSB:

"Nine years after his high school graduation, he joined the volunteer radio team at UC Santa Barbara where after less than a year and a sparkling 40 hours of airtime, he was cut for making homophobic remarks and parading an AIDS conspiracy book. He took this amazing new credential by calling himself 'the most talked about college radio host in America'. Hannity said about his time there, 'I was terrible'(what's changed?), but also said it was the left-wing management's fault. It makes you think, does he think he was terrible because he went too far, or becuase [sic] he didn't go far enough?"

Did you have any future fame-seekers at your station. Did they get fired?

Exclusive: Story Details On DC’s BLACK LIGHTNING

Exclusive: Story Details On DC’s BLACK LIGHTNING

Producer Greg Berlanti might be the most powerful man in Television. He’s currently behind 5 shows on two different networks. He basically owns the CW with the combined power of ARROW, THE FLASH, SUPERGIRL, RIVERDALE and LEGENDS OF TOMORROW. He’s bringing one more project to the network: BLACK LIGHTNING. Originally developed at FOX, this adaptation of the DC comics property is the HOT project of this pilot season. With Berlanti’s track record, it’s hard to believe CW will pass on this package.

In present day Watts, the One Hundred street gang is winning the war against the LAPD and the local citizens. Jefferson Pierce, 40, is the principal of the local high school. He’s been separated from his wife Lynn for over a decade ever since he stopped being the superhero Black Lightning. The violent street gang killed an innocent high school student that Black Lightning was desperately trying to protect. His younger daughter Jennifer is a student athlete while his older daughter Anissa teaches at the high school.

Jefferson has been trying to make the high school an oasis of hope for the violent neighborhood. After a gangbanger gets Jennifer in trouble, Jefferson is forced to use his powers for the first time in a decade. After rescuing her and beating up two racist LAPD cops, he’s saved by Gambi his former mentor. He pleads to Jefferson to bring back Black Lightning because the neighborhood needs to be saved from the One Hundred. He refuses but finally needs to bring back his heroic persona when his two daughters are kidnapped by gang members…

Black Lightning

This is solid network television screenwriting. Salim Akil (The Game, Being Mary Jane) who penned the pilot is a fantastic writer. There’s a high level of grittiness in the story that is a million miles away from the rest of the CW superhero line-up. I think FOX missed the boat on passing on this project. With the success of Empire on FOX and Luke Cage on Netflix, a show like Black Lightning could have brought them great ratings.

The story doesn’t sugarcoat the current uneasiness surrounding the police and the African-American communities. Even a high school principal/superhero can be the victim of racial discrimination and profiling. We haven’t seen those stories being told on television.

I’m curious to see who will play Black Lightning. This could be a very strong role for the actor they select. His powers are also very visually attracting. He uses electricity and raw fighting skills to beat up the villains. It sounds closer to the action sequences showcased in the Netflix Marvel universe than in the DC/CW one.

I cannot imagine how this project fits in properly with The Flash, Supergirl, Arrow and Company. They could play the card that Black Lightning resides in one of the millions of DC multiverse.

I hope the network doesn’t dilute the darker tone of the show. If done properly, Black Lightning could become CW’s biggest hit.

Sourav Mania

My Favourite Footballer

Diego Armando Maradona (born 30 October 1960 in Lanús, Buenos Aires) is a former Argentine football player, and current coach of the Argentine national side. He is considered by many to be one of the greatest players of all time; he finished first in an internet vote for the FIFA Player of the Century award, and he shared the award with Pelé.[1][2][3]

Over the course of his professional club career Maradona played for Argentinos Juniors, Boca Juniors, Barcelona, and, most distinguishedly, Napoli. In his international career, playing for Argentina, he earned 91 caps and scored 34 goals. He played in four FIFA World Cup tournaments, including the 1986 World Cup where he captained Argentina and led them to their victory over West Germany in the final, winning the Golden Ball award as the tournament's best player. In that same tournament's quarter-final round he scored two remarkable goals in a 2-1 victory over England which instantly cemented his fame. The first goal was an unpenalized handball known as the "Hand of God", while the second goal was a spectacular 60-metre weave through six England players, commonly referred to as "The Goal of the Century".

On 20 October 1976, Maradona made his professional debut with Argentinos Juniors, ten days before his sixteenth birthday.[4] He played there between 1976 and 1981, before his £1m transfer to Boca Juniors. Joining the squad midway through the 1981 season, Maradona played through 1982, and secured his first league winners' medal. Whilst playing for Argentinos Juniors, English club Sheffield United put in a bid of £180,000 for his services but the bid was rejected.

Freddie Freeman Sets Atlanta Braves Record By Reaching Base 12 Straight Times with the first SunTrust Park fountain HR

If you are a Braves fan this was the one highlight from last night's rout by the hands of Bryce Harper and the Nationals losing 14-4.

Freddie Freeman set an Atlanta Braves franchise record by reaching base for the 12th consecutive time by hitting a solo shot into the SunTrust Park fountain just beyond the centerfield fence.

Freeman's 6th home run of the year kept his scorching hot bat going where his OPS is at a ridiculous 1.453 while he leads the majors in batting average at .440 and on base percentage at .533.  Even with Freeman's 6 HRs, 4 doubles and 1 triple he only has 8, yes 8 RBIs, batting 3rd in the lineup.

Why only 8 RBIs?  Because the man batting in the 2 spot aka Dansby Swanson has been horrible the first two weeks of the season (155 OBP) and simply can't get on base to set the table for MVFreeman.
Brian Snitker gets paid handsomely to manage the Braves albeit only a one year contract so he needs to do the right thing and drop Dansby in the order while either putting either Nick Markakis (367 OBP) or Brandon Phillips (362 OBP) in the 2 spot in front of Freeman.  It's an absolute crime for Freeman to only have 8 RBIs.

With Matt Kemp coming off the 10-day DL today my hope would be the top of the order will be:

1) Ender Inciarte (started slow but slowly heating up)
2) Brandon Phillips
3) Freddie Freeman
4) Matt Kemp
5) Nick Markakis

Roll with this lineup for at least a week while dropping Dansby to 7 or 8 in the lineup and see where your chips fall.

Bulls on the Skagit

Author: Travis 2 comments

That's a Big Thumb!

   Yesterday I spent the afternoon with one of my former loves. She is still as beautiful as I remembered her. It had been a long time since I had fished the Skagit and Sunday I found myself standing  on Chittenden bridge staring into her deep green pools.  The plan was for Nick Pace and I to gather some steelhead footage for the film. A special opening of the Coquihalla River in near Hope, B.C. presented Nick the chance to wake a few dry flies for some summer run steelhead, close to home. Reports were that the fishing was EASY for 5lb. to 8lb. steelhead, above the Othello tunnels on the Coq. Well, that was before the fall rains set in. In fact,  probably more like around the low, gin clear water of late August, while I was still shooting in Montana. Undaunted, because Nick  has been stung hard by the Steelhead bug and is willing to go anywhere anytime for a chance at steel on the dry, I was at his house at 4am Sunday and off we went over the Coquihalla pass. We arrived at Hope at around 7am to a full blown coast mountain, only in Hope B.C. can it rain this hard, torrential down fall. The Coq had good vis though but as we found some water and geared it up... the river found some water and blew out. It rose a foot in half and hour and dirtied to around a foot viz.  Nick, ever the optimistic steelheader said it was good and away he went. I was left trying to figure out whether not I should call Simms to make a proper rain coat for my camera.  Everything got soaked of course. We finally found a nice run and it stopped raining long enough to shoot a quick segment and Nick did hook up only for a moment.  I think he was so surprised that he didn't even get a chance to set the hook properly. At 9:30 I told Nick about a little steelhead stream I had fished nearly 10 years ago and hopefully it wouldn't be blown out. Off we went,when that didn't pan out we set our sites on one of my former haunts, Skagit river above Ross Lake Resevoir.  I used to love fishing the Skagit, it's an incredibly beautiful river, deep in the Cascade mountain range just north of the Washington state border. In the 60's, Seattle Light and Hydro impounded the Skagit on the American side of the border for hydro and Ross Lake Resevoir was formed, flooding into Canada. Ross is great habitat for Bull trout and it was the Bulls that I was hoping to target when we got to the Skagit. As soon as I stepped on to Chittenden bridge, the clouds broke, the sun came out and  I spotted 5 nice sized bulls. We were only a short distance up from the lake and these Bulls were fresh from Ross. They were ripe for the picking and Nick and I got some great footage and landed a few bulls before the clouds moved in and we had to head home. Even I got in on the action! That River's Edge hat has got some serious MOJO I took only one cast yesterday and landed this Bull.     More Later     T>

T-Man gets in on the Action!

First Round For the British Versus the French and Indians.

     After painting up the British force I had for Muskets & Tomahawks, it was time to take them out on their first adventure in battle. It turns out with upgrades, the British I had equaled to the French and the Indians put together. That really worked out, even if I still have more British to paint. It just means more French and/or Indians.
   For the first test, my wife, Kalissa decided to play the French and Indians. I gave her the choice, but I figured she would want to play against the British. Also, she wrote the list for those "Woods Ninjas". Unfortunately for the French, she did not seem to care about their lives as the Indians. I think her plan was to roll up with the French in the center and attack the British in a pincer move with the Indians. Honestly, I played a little cautious based on how hard it is to hit the Indians in the woods. The British did have some excellent shooting. They managed to end the game by killing the French force leaving the Indians to take one the enemy. We did not play out the rest of the game based on going to a Civil War reenactment for Averasboro, NC. We will see if the British do well next time.

AAR: Ladies Versus Gents in Aerial WW1 Dogfights!

         These are photos of a Wings of Glory game that my friend, Danny and I played against our partners in crime! Danny and I took the Germans. Kalissa and Susan took the British. I must say that it was a fun filled game. The first shot in anger took out one of my planes instantly! The rest of the time were some nice forms of flying. The British lost everyone in the end while two German planes remained. It was still fun, and I suspect there with be a rematch! Needless to say, it was quicker that the three hour game Danny and I played that day where I lost, but made him work for it. Here are the Ladies Vs. Gents pictures. Enjoy!

The British Are Coming! The Muskets & Tomahawks British Force.

   After finishing off the French Marines and the Natives, I felt the need to have the British side as well. Kalissa had found a bunch of metal Warlord box sets for the French, the Indians, and the British. The problem was that I could not for the life of me figure out what I did with the British box set. I was really unsure if I bought it over from the move into our house. So for a while, I had written them off as casualties of moving. To make up for this, I made a trade with a friend of ours who has a membership with Old Glory Miniatures to get a discount. The figures in this post are them. I think they were fairly decent figures to paint. There were a lot to a pack, so I can see how a discount can make a good dent in rather large army purchases.
    However, as a update, like this was Unsolved Mysteries, I happened to find the missing British the other day. It just means the British will out number the other two factions. It just means more figures in the long run. This is turning into a real tragedy, I dare say! Here are some shots!

White Tiger: A Little Convention Game Idea And Playtest.

       After watching the Russian movie called "White Tiger," I thought of a convention idea. This seems to happen a lot with me. I will see a movie or read in a book and lightning will hit me with an idea. I think all wargamers are guilty of this. I have at least twelve ideas for convention games, if not scenarios to play for fun. And they range for all over time periods and fantasy. With the "White Tiger" movie, I was rather impressed with the story. The ending could have been better, but the core movie is pretty awesome and seems to be like Herman Melville's Moby Dick. However, the movie was based off of the novel The White Tiger  by Ilya Boyashov. I do not know if there is an English version of this book, since it is written by a Russian. I will have to look for that later.
    Anyway, most of my little convention games and ideas do not pan out. I know that there are some few people who wonder when I will come out with the Sharknado Game I wrote up. The difference about this game idea is that it fell into my lab, so to speak. I don't really like Tiger Tanks that much, because they always seem to do horribly in most of the games I play. I have still not got a King Tiger for my Market Garden lists. So Warlord Games comes out with a "Hollywood Tiger" for cheesy wargames and other character that are all based on the film "Kelly's Heroes." I still did not jump out to get this tank. I ended up getting it at the Siege of Augusta Convention. I nice young guy named Davis bought it for me, though he clearly did not have to. He just heard about one of my crazy wargaming ideas. Thus, the White Tiger was born!
    After building and painting it, I think it looks pretty good and almost endangers me to make a "Kelly's Heroes" game now added to my never ending list of game ideas! The model was fairly strait forward and simple. I am aware that it does not look like the one in the movie, because I found out that that one was based off of a IS-2 chassis. The Hollywood Tiger is based off of a T-34 much like the one in "Saving Private Ryan". It never amazes me when people point out the inaccuracy of an inaccurate tank from a historical based movie.
    So, to the game! The idea is to have the White Tiger play against a whole company of tanks and the one T-34/85 Special that Sgt. Ivan Naydenov commands. Since the White Tiger cannot not officially die, it is like a survival point game for six turns. Most likely, if the game is played with other players, they will mostly likely lose all of their tanks. That is the great thing with play tests. You can find the problems.
      The special rules for the White Tiger were as follows based off of Bolt Action Rules.

  1.  The White Tiger cannot die. If killed as normal, it can reappear at any table edge!
  2.  It hits on a 3 always! Modifiers do not apply! The exception is hitting on a 2+  at point blank!
  3.  Disabled results only half the movement distance.
  4.  The Tiger is treated as a medium tank for movement.
  5.  The Tiger had multiple order dice.
  6.  Pins and Morale have no effect on this tank.
   The Soviets were going to have an uphill battle. Their tanks have all of the regular Bolt Action rules for tank warfare. The only one exempt from these rules was the T-34/85 Special tank commanded by Sgt. Naydenov.

   Naydenov's T-34/85 Rules:

  1.  His tank never dies and can reappear at any table edge no closer than 12" away from the White Tiger.
  2.  His tank hits on a 3+ always  like the White Tiger.
  3.  Can start the game on table in Ambush and hits at a 2+ from Ambush.
  4.  Can fix his disabled tank with a Rally order.
  5.   Has a Super-Heavy gun.
  6.  Also had multiple order dice.
 The game had all of the Soviet tanks on the table with the option of Naydenov's T-34/85 off table. The White Tiger can start anywhere a start the killfest. Below were the results.

We were just saying these were Land-lease Shermans.

Hiding in the woods.

I painted these T-34/85 tanks based off of some from a Guards Division during the Summer 1944 Offensive. I have had people actually argue about it a lot, despite finding thirty photo references and sources to back this up.

Granny had to give these tankers cookies!
Again, Land Lease Churchill Tank. The beauty of running out of decals!

The Hollywood White Tiger!

Hitting with no problems!

The town is cleared after turn two.

Naydenov's Tank takes aim!

The Sherman in the woods vaporizes!

Naydenov fires!

    In conclusion, the game was fairly quick for a six turn game. Of course, I would say there needs to be more tanks for the Soviets. Turn three, everyone was dead, but Naydenov. I am also sure that more cover would help, but that is why it was a trial run. It will be tweaked for improvement!

Project Sicily: Update for February.

      As it was mentioned before, I am on a mission for my Historicon 2017 Convention Project. For those who have not followed this, this project was going to be a historical one based on the first actions with the Canadians against the Germans in Sicily for Operation Husky in 1943. I have been finding all sorts of information about the battle or engagement. Below is the map that I will be using for Grammichele, Sicily. I have not started making the board yet, but I have, with the help of my wife, started below budget for this project.
Since this is going to be in 28mm, this board with not be this big.

    So what has changed since the last time?  We have got sponsership from Trenchworx, Blitzkrieg Miniatures. and Charlie Foxtrot Models. We have already ordered a lot of models. We bought some of the new Charlie Foxtrot buildings. Below are the ones from the Pentile designs

.     From Blitzkrieg, we have ordered two 8.8cm Flak Guns and the transports, as well as, Panzer IV G's. The Panzer IV G's are the same as the one I have for my Romanians. With Trenchworx, we are waiting until March to buy the Shermans for the Canadians. With this happening, the project is one the move. I am looking forward to some more updates for everyone.

Science Roadshow

Today Room 7 & Room 5 went to Tamaki College. I went with Paul, Patrick and Paul’s sister. Paul’s Sister kindly volunteered to take us there because the Roadshow science had invited us to see their show.

When we got into the hall there were a lot of science stations. Unfortunately I missed out on some science stations but my favourite station was throwing the balls onto the target. My score/result I had for throwing was 106 kph. I'm impressed of myself trying hard to get the highest score.

At the Science Roadshow I learnt how dogs can hear better than us humans, so as Whales.

Happy Mothers Day!

Mothers!  Aren't they special? Mothers everywhere even different species are appreciated by their own children.  They have the most amazing job that any father wish to have which is looking after their wonderful children.

My mum is always my number one and only angel in my life. My mum is beautiful then all the other mothers in the world to me, she has black long hair, that smells like the most beautifulest cherry blossom tree, she has brown eyes that looks like chocolate brownies, she is always kind to visitors that come over and visit. My mother supports me at my rugby games,  during my game I can hear her yelling out “Run hard Pate run!”, my mum is always proud of me and she is so supportive that she gives me good luck kisses on my cheeks before my games.

BIAFRA: ‘We Want Referendum, Not War’ IPOB Declares

The Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) has recapitulated on the agitation for Biafra to gain Independent and not declaring war, saying that they are seeking a referendum to determine whether Ndigbo should remain in Nigeria or should separate.

In a statement issued on Tuesday by the National Publicity Secretary of IPOB, Mr Emma Powerful, and made available to Tribune Online in Enugu, the group accused some of the Northern elders including Alhaji Tanko Yakassai of a grand conspiracy against the pro-Biafra agitators.

We the members of the indigenous people of Biafra (IPOB) and its leadership worldwide have observed the grand conspiracy perfected by Hausa-Fulani oligarchs like Tanko Yakassai and his fellow Hausa-Fulani politicians with the help of certain unity beggars to the effect that IPOB asking for self-determination is tantamount to declaration of war or asking for referendum is equal to hate speech.
Mr Powerful noted;

We also understand that such levels of stupefying ignorance about what IPOB is demanding is totally the reason why Nigeria cannot produce and distribute electricity and job opportunities in Nigeria despite the abundance of coal, palm oil, gas and crude oil

The statement read in part: “This thuggish mindset of some Hausa-Fulani oligarchs is a quick resort to violence as espoused by Tanko Yakassai and co and is the reason why we have Boko Haram today. They always see civilised debate as a call to war; such people and the values they represent can never be reconciled with the civilising effects of genuine democracy that allows for freedom of expression.

It is fair to assume, going by the utterances of certain corrupt segments of the Nigerian society, that most of what IPOB is saying and stands for is lost in translation because anybody with basic understanding of rudimentary English and constitutional law will know that self-determination does not mean war and that referendum is not hate speech. Again, when badly educated and ill-informed people dabble into a discipline above their station, such mistakes are bound to happen.

We would like to use this opportunity to clarify once again that IPOB is asking for self-determination as recognised in both United Nations Charter on the Rights of Indigenous People and the African Charter on Human and Peoples Rights. Before these Northern unity beggars threaten us with a war that IPOB hasn’t called for, let them spend a bit of their valuable time acquainting themselves with these charters and declarations.

The only instrument IPOB has at its disposal is civil disobedience which is entirely legal. Civil disobedience it must be understood and be said that it has nothing to do with armed conflict.

Furthermore, people should be advised to study and assimilate the subtleties and nuances of English language before engaging in any public discussion regarding Biafra independence. Our leader Nnamdi Kanu is a peaceful man that constituted IPOB with peaceful foundation and the sole aim is to liberate his people from humiliation and bondage. If some oil revenue dependent Northerners wish to misunderstand him and IPOB’s aims and objectives, that is their business.

“lso, we understand that some people console themselves with the constant reference to a war fought over 50 years ago, by saying that those asking for Biafra did not see war. Ignorantly they forget that the generation fighting today to defend Israel were not born when Hitler’s Nazi regime murdered six million Jews during the Second World War.

Due to the fact that our fathers were defeated in a war with the support of Britain, USSR, Egypt and the Arab world against our people during the war of genocide in 1967 and 1970 does not give us a guarantee for us to ask for our freedom in this 2017.

10 Questions to Ask Yourself to Improve Your Writing

editingIf you’re a frequent visitor to this blog, then you know I’m a writer, and occasionally I try to pass on bits of advice to help other writers in their craft. Sometimes it’s in the form of a story from my personal life, other times it’s just a straight up blog post with information.

Today is going to be a little different.

Before I continue, ask yourself the following questions:

  1. Do you consider yourself a writer?
  2. Have you begun shipping your work yet?
  3. Do you know how to write and edit effectively?
  4. Do you have a plan in place to get constructive feedback on your work?
  5. Do you know what steps to take to have a successful launch?
  6. Have you begun to define yourself as a brand?
  7. Are you working on a platform so you’re more marketable?
  8. Is your platform strong and growing steadily?
  9. Do you know who your target audience is?
  10. Do you know how to reach them?

Those are some daunting questions, especially to the beginner, but even to the established writer. Some of those terms may be unfamiliar to you. And you know what? I haven’t even introduced two of the most important terms yet: Cartel and Tribe.

Sometimes people bat buzzwords around and don’t really give you any solid framework with which to understand it. I’m going to do my best to help you along. Look at the questions again.

Story CartelIf the first five questions really got your attention, I urge you to check out Joe Bunting’s Story Cartel Course. Studying six short rules, you will learn the importance of sharing your work, connecting with other writers, writing and editing techniques, reviewing methods, and collaborating for successful book releases. The course wraps up with a series of tools designed to teach you to reach a larger audience faster. Each week, experts in the field share their knowledge and offer tips for navigating the publishing industry. Exercises help you hone your craft, and you always have support from the contacts you make in the forums. The strongest supporter of all is founder Joe Bunting, who also hosts a regular web-chat to introduce new material and answer any questions you might have. This comprehensive program gives you lifetime access to the materials and the forums, so unlike traditional classes, once you sign up, you can keep learning at your own pace for as long as you like, and access like that is priceless. I was a staff member for the pioneer run, and I thought the program was great, and Joe is continually tweaking the program to make it even better for future students. If you write fiction, this is a course you don’t want to miss. Click “Story Cartel” to register or join the waiting list, or click on the logo in my sidebar.

Tribe WritersIf the second set of questions piqued your interest, you may be more interested in growing your platform and online presence than working on your writing. And that’s great. Both the craft of writing and the discipline of marketing go hand-in-hand these days. You pretty much can’t have a successful career without both. If learning to use social media to increase your brand awareness is something you’re interested in, then signing up for the Tribe Writers course is something you should consider. This course offers eight weeks of lessons designed to help you improve your writing while increasing your platform, a large forum of current and former classmates to support your efforts and interact with, interviews from experts in the fields of publishing and social media, and regular web-chats with founder Jeff Goins, who makes certain all students feel welcome and encouraged. This program offers lifetime access to the materials and the forums, so you can work at your own pace. I was a pioneer member of Tribe Writers, and it just gets better every time Jeff offers it. If you’re looking to build a tribe of dedicated followers, you want to take this course. Click “Tribe Writers” to register or join the waiting list, or click the logo in my sidebar.

In the interest of full disclosure, you should know that I’m an affiliate member of both of these courses. If you use these links, a portion of your tuition will be passed on to me. But I wouldn’t be an affiliate member if I didn’t believe in these programs, and I wouldn’t be recommending them to you if I wasn’t certain they work.

If you have any questions about either of the programs, you can email the founders, or you can ask me. I’d be happy to tell you more about my experiences in those courses.

Best wishes, and happy writing!

Writer. Editor. Wife. Mom. Daughter. Sister. Friend. Dog owner. Award-winning author and recipe creator. Conservative Catholic with an avid interest in the supernatural. Think all that doesn't go together? Then you have to get to know me better.

  1. Thanks Staci. Numbers 6 through 10 are the very things I tend to neglect. I am going over now to check out Story Cartel. I have taken my ten lashes with a wet noodle, please put the spaghetti away. ;).

    • Story Cartel is great for writers, but if six through ten are your areas of concern, you should probably check out Tribe Writers. Jeff Goins has some great ways to expand your online presence. I think you’ll really like what you find there. Let me know how it goes!

Erlenbach a.Main - Wine Town Erlenbach

Wine Town Erlenbach

For hundreds of years, wine has been grown on the steep south westerly slopes. The wine growers have created a unique cultivated landscape. The ideal combination of a Mediterranean microclimate and sandstone is perfect not only for full-bodied red wines, but also for excellent white wines.

Erlenbach is referred to as the gate to the wine terraces, because here visitors have access to the unique cultivated landscape with its steep slopes. The view from the pavilion is particularly impressive, a bird´s eye view of the town and the Main valley. Along the vineyard paths, there are signs with information about flora and fauna typical to the area and about sights, natural monuments, vineyards and the locality. Throughout the whole year the car park at the outdoor swimming pool is the starting point for countless visitors walking the Franconian Red Wine Hiking Trail. This easily accessible trail runs through the vineyards with their unique standstone terraces from Erlenbach to Klingenberg.

Häckerwirtschaft in Erlenbach

Apart from the twenty “Häckerwirtschaften”, the annual Erlenbach Wine Festival is also a big visitor attraction. Thousands come to the event at the foot of the Hohberg. The “Wengertstreppenfest”, which takes place every year on Ascension Day in the middle of the wine terraces, is also well worth a visit.

Barcelona's Vocation of Modernity: Rise and Decline of an Urban Image

Joan Ramon Resina

Since the closing decades of the nineteenth century, Barcelona has striven to sustain an image of modernity that distinguishes itself within Spain. This book traces the development of that image through texts that foreground key social and historical issues. It begins with Barcelona's “coming of age” in the 1888 Universal Exposition and focuses on the first major narrative work of modern Catalan literature, La febre d'or. Positing an inextricable link between literature and modernity, the book establishes a literary framework for the evolution of the image of Barcelona's modernity through the ... More

"They operated on me -- put some sort of tracking device in my back and released me."
Ronon Dex[src]

Wraith trackers, also known as a subspace tracking device, are implants used by the Wraith.

These small devices were implanted surgically into the body where they emitted a subspace signal which was capable of being detected by the Wraith. This allowed them to detect the target through the resulting frequency being emitted from the target. They were typically placed close to the spinal column in order to prevent the individual from cutting them out themselves.

The Wraith often implanted these trackers in Runners in order for their hunters to track their targets across the Pegasus galaxy. (SGA: "Sateda")

Ronon Dex had one such device implanted in his body which meant he was hunted throughout the planets. (SGA: "Runner")

Another one was placed in Ronon when he was recaptured by the Wraith and turned back into a Runner and set loose on his homeworld on Sateda. McKay was able to use the device and Atlants' sensors to determine where he was and Sheppard, McKay, Teyla and Dr. Beckett came to his rescue. After Ronon, Sheppard, Teyla and Beckett killed all of the enemy Wraith and escaped in a Puddle Jumper, Beckett removed it from Ronon once again. (SGA: "Sateda")

Todd has shown an affinity for the device. He had a tracker implanted in his body and used it to summon his Hive ship when he was taken captive by the Atlantis expedition at Atlantis. (SGA: "The Seer")

This same implant was triggered again to alert Lt. Colonel John Sheppard's team of his capture by a rival Hive. His enemies, however, cut the implant from his body. (SGA: "Spoils of War")

He had the device replaced at some point as he used it to summon the team to a Wraith lab when he wanted to talk to them about the Hoffan drug outbreak. (SGA: "The Kindred, Part 1")

Some time later he used it as a means for Sheppard's team and his hive to track him while he was on the Primary's hive. (SGA: "The Queen")

Dr. Keller was kidnapped by another Runner named Kiryk, who wanted her to treat a seriously ill little girl, and offered to remove his tracker from him. However, she was unable to remove it as it was attached to both his spinal column and brain stem. Keller instead shorted it out with a defibrillator, rendering it useless. (SGA: "Tracker")

When the team was placed on trial by the Coalition of Planets, Sheppard asked Richard Woolsey if he had a tracker on him so Atlantis could find them. Woolsey tells them he doesn't as that's Wraith technology before admitting he called Todd for one but didn't get an answer. (SGA: "Inquisition")

When Todd was placed into stasis on Atlantis, Doctors Carson Beckett and Rodney McKay checked him over for trackers. They removed one and the components to make two more. Unknown to them, Todd had more inside of him in a dormant or seedling stage and grew a new tracker while in stasis. This one was described as being crude and more like an emergency beacon. When Todd passed through the Stargate to Manaria, the tracker was activated and signaled Todd's hive ship to come pick him up. Richard Woolsey was displeased at how Todd was able to signal his ship and that when they did come, Sheppard let him go. (SGA: "Legacy: Homecoming")

B3 - Brilliant Breezehome and Burrows

This is a unique quality home full of surprises with access to an underground network that stretches throughout Whiterun and beyond. Hearthfire required.

What people are saying:
'..jaw dropping good favourite breezehome. This mod has so many secrets, and it feels so cozy, and has a certain feeling no other breezehome offers.' - Physyx

'..I want to say how an amazing job you have done with Breezehome! It looks absolutely stunning!!' - StrangelyRandom

'I absolutely love this mod and where it is going. I walked up to the now charming Breezhome and stumbled through the dimly lit darkness ..into these warm, inviting rooms and through these halls and the odd hole to discover this room of is just brilliant and charming..' - Leinadx

- Hearthfire version available on the TES Alliance website.

Let's face it - Whiterun is a great place to live. It's strategically located in Skyrim, has great amenities, interesting people, and lots of rich history. Not to mention it's central location for adventuring and carousing! So why was Breezehome, sitting on such a great lot in the city, vacant and seemingly abandoned?

Well one things for sure - these people love their yarns and legends. You know, creepy milk-drinker tales in the night. One such story is that Breezehome is beset by an ancient evil that left it's previous owners dead or missing. Some crazed survivors even fled the city in their undergarments! Supposedly it has secret access to the long-abandoned Whiterun Burrows, and in the darkest depths is the key to it all. Few dare go there, Breezehome or the burrows, and none return from the lower reaches of the caves.

When Balgruuf the Greater learned the dragonborn had come and was aiding them, he saw potential to fortify his position in this gods-awful war. With his men and Farengar's magick they quickly restored the dusty old shack into an amazing home worthy of a hero of legend. The Jarl then instructed Proventus to make the new home only available to the dragonborn. By offering him thaneship and the alluring Breezehome, Balgruuf could secure his primary residence right here in the city - and gain a tremendous advantage over his rival Jarls. In addition, this deal would go a long way towards protecting the city against the dragons and invaders. And on top of it all he could finally clear out the tunnels under the city from bandits and creature infestations, without having to spare a single soldier. A venture clearly worth the effort.

* No mod conflicts aside from other breezehomes
* Fully meshed, bounded and occluded for best performance
* Room by room switched lighting, working showers and sinks to drink from
* Plenty of unique items like couches, lute racks and music boxes
* Dragon mask and claw holders, dragonstone and elder scroll holders
* Lore friendly and balanced
* A tavern with followers and extensive subterranean exploring
* TES5Edit cleaned

With tons of unique features, this reimagines Breezehome into an amazing dwelling. The general layout of the house is the same but everything has been remodeled and small touches lend to a more homely feel (like leather couches to nap on). B3 offers up a balcony herb garden on the roof with a vegetable garden on the side. The back yard has a nice bench and a well for wishing. Inside, a false floor grants secret access to the home's underbelly which houses extended living quarters for the Dragonborn and company.

From here is a hidden passage leading to an undercity network - the Whiterun Burrows. Hours can be spent exploring them. Your dovahkiin has the means - do you have the nerve and cunning to survive?

Finally, just inside the burrows from the front gate passage is the Minstrel's Rest - a charming underground tavern that's a favorite watering hole for many local bards (some available as followers). Sadie the barkeep has decent coin and will buy just about anything you want to sell.

B3 is safe, but always make copies of your saves before installing any mod or update. Game saves are found in the "\\My Documents\MyGames\Skyrim\Saves" folder for copying and pasting somewhere else.

Current Breezehome Owners - This mod works best when used for a character that has not purchased Breezehome (see known issues - HAVOK). If you want to use this for a character that already has Breezehome, either vanilla or modded, then follow these simple steps:
1) Cleaning day! Enter the home and start packing - Gear, books, flowers, etc. Anything left behind will be lost.
2) Go to Warmaidens and enter the following console commands: pcb whiterunbreezehome (press enter, then type) resetinterior whiterunbreezehome (press enter then close the console).
3) Wait an in-game hour, save to a new slot and exit the game.
4) Enter the game and load your new save, wait an in-game hour, then save over your new save and exit the game.
5) Install B3, load your new save. Enjoy your new home.
Note: Instead of Warmaiden's go to another city in step 2 if interior problems persist.

Uninstallation - IMPORTANT
1) Retrieve your gear and companions before uninstalling! Uninstalling will remove all items from the home and send them hurtling through cyberspace.
2) Save your game from another interior cell, like Warmaiden's.
3) Exit the game and remove B3, or remove the B3HF.esp from the "\\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\skyrim\data".

Compatibility and Bugs:
B3 is compatible with any mod that does not alter Breezehome. Here are some notable effects with other mods:

UFO USERS - If you have fLokii's 'Ultimate Follower Overhaul' mod installed and hear a banging near the front of the home, it's due to the placement of the UFO Book "Field Command" within the subfloor, and the games havok engine is going nuts. Look around, the top cover is sticking out from the wood floor so you can pick it up and keep it to make the banging go away. Since this mod works with both the decorated and undecorated versions of Breezehome, you can also pick up the book before decorating the house to remedy this.

ENHANCED LIGHTS and FX - Be sure to use the "NoBreezehome version" to prevent strange objects and lights in the home (thanks Anamorfus!). Also Skyrim Project Optimization and Realistic Lighting Overhaul have similar versions available.

The WhiterunBreezehome, WhiterunBurrows and MinstrelsRest are large cells. B3 is developed on pure Skyrim with no mods. This is being released as version .9x beta for public testing (see known issues) and will be updated periodically. Updates will not replace or remove any player chests. Always keep your games saved before upgrading. Please provide feedback during this testing phase.

HAVOK - Items within the home have been havoked. Any clutter, messes or oddities are likely due to leftover items from a previous Breezehome version (see installation Read Me).

LIGHTING - Lighting results are unique to every rig, so adjusting your ENB, lighting mods and in game brightness may give better results. The burrows are intentionally dark as they should be. Breezehome lights are initially off - use the light amps to turn them on.

MANNEQUINS - All mannequins are default vanilla for mannequin mod compatibility.

KNOWN BUGS - This version (.99c) may have the following bugs that are being worked on: Some weapon rack weapon placements may be misaligned; Some mannequins may move around (workaround: dress them at activator to reset); the Diamond Dragon Claw holder may not work properly; the privy room door may get stuck closed (workaround: highlight door in 1st person and type 'disable' in the console for room access); 1st floor stairway and front door may be misaligned (possible CK bug). Please report any other confirmed bugs with my thanks.

Enjoy B3

I have always loved this Mod, anyone know where it is on Skyrim NEXUS? Is it under another name? I would like to keep all my mods downloaded from that site, but I can no longer find the file there, it seems to be only available on STEAM. :-(
freault Jun 3 @ 5:18pm
I've just downloaded it, not bad. One small problem though, I buy stuff like the kitchen, which gives me flames in the middle of the room on the floor, other things like superimposed of items I bought from the steward.There is too much stuff and it's hard to move around in, other then that well done very well done. Thanks

Ghost F@cker XIII Dec 17, 2016 @ 6:34pm
Glad to know you'll be fixing the issues. But I do have one complaint not relative towards bugs. You really shouldn't have added so much furniture. The house isn't exactly "roomy" it's hard to get in and out.

A Spider Shepherd Short Story

I've always been a big fan of short stories, but in the past there hasn't really been a market for them. The simple fact is that collections of short stories - no matter how famous the author - never sell as well as novels. That's just a fact.

I believe that the arrival of the eReader will change that and short stories will become marketable on a much bigger scale.

I have already tested the water with my Inspector Zhang short stories, and my collection of erotic short stories (though truth be told they're not that erotic!).

I'm now pushing the envelope a bit further by releasing the first in what I hope will be a series of Spider Shepherd short stories.

I'm setting the books during the time that Spider was in the SAS, and the first stories will cover the period when he was in Afghanistan, from November 2001 until October 2002. They're fun because they are war stories so full of action and weapons, whereas in the novels he's a policeman or MI5 officer and therefore can't shoot as much!  The stories which will be more like those written by Andy McNab and Chris Ryan, two writers I really admire.

I'll be keeping the price below £1 and hopefully they'll sell. We'll see!

Brown, Mpungi race past Cedar for key Pine View road win

Christian Reis (11) recovers a fumble, Pine View at Cedar, Cedar City, UT, Oct. 11, 2017 | Screen cap courtesy

CEDAR CITY – The Pine View Panthers ground out a 17-3 win over the Cedar Redmen Wednesday night behind quarterback Dallin Brown and star running back Jacob Mpungi.

“Being able to give (Mpungi) the ball and making those big plays, that’s what we expect,” said Panthers coach Ben Meier. “He’s going to earn the hard yards. We’re now relying on him on the defensive side as well. He’s doing a lot for our team to help us win. We’re proud of him and the effort that he gives. Kudos to him for the yards he is picking up and the plays he’s making on defense.”

The Panthers were looking to strike early after the Redmen muffed a punt at their own 30-yard line with 7:21 left in the first quarter. Brown and Mpungi accounted for the next 36 yards, but a holding penalty and a fumble gave the ball back to the Redmen at their own 1-yard line with 3:57 left in the quarter.

The Redmen were forced to punt the ball to Pine View speedster Michael Moten, who took the ball from the Redmen 38-yard line all the way to the 8-yard line. Mpungi punched the ball into the end zone on the next play to give the Panthers a 7-0 lead with 1:32 left in the first quarter.

“Michael’s a great player,” Meier said. “He’s gonna catch the ball and he’s going to make people miss. He has that ability to make people miss.”

Moten, however, put the glory on his running back.

“(Mpungi) played awesome, like every game,” Moten said. “He’s a one-of-a-kind running back. Couldn’t do anything without him.”

The Redmen tried all night to get Trenton Mauer into a groove. After rushing for more than 200 yards last week against Snow Canyon, Mauer finished the first half with only one run that went over 2 yards.

At the start of the second quarter, the Panthers went to Brown on four consecutive plays. On the fourth play, Brown fumbled the ball once again. The Redmen were able to recover the ball at their own 25-yard line.

Quarterback Jaxon Garrett complete a pass to Luke Maggio on the next play for a gain of 21 yards down to the 46-yard line. The Redmen would stall for three plays and punted the ball back to the Panthers. However, Moten muffed the punt and Cedar recovered the ball at the Panthers 15-yard line.

The Redmen were only able to get 10 yards on the next eight plays, and were forced to kick a 22-yard field goal that cut the Panthers lead to 7-3.

Moten took the ensuing kickoff 27 yards to put the Panthers in good field position. Brown and Mpungi would then carry the Panthers offense down the field once again. Moten caught a pass from Brown later on and weaved his way through the defense for a 48-yard gain to the Redmen’s 14-yard line.

“Coach made a good game plan,” Moten said. “When the safeties are off, I just sat and they got me the ball and I just go make a play.”

Brown ran the ball into the end zone on the next play, but a holding penalty took the points off the board and the offense back to the 25-yard line. Mpungi ran the ball to the 7-yard line on the next play, but a false start penalty took that play away as well. Eventually, the Panthers were forced to kick a 32-yard field goal. The kick failed, keeping the score at 7-3 in favor of the Panthers with 1:03 left in the half.

The Redmen made an attempt to get downfield, but could not put enough yards together on the first two plays. Pine View almost picked off a pass, but it fell just out of Christian Ries’ reach. The half ended with Mauer getting a 9-yard rush.

With 6:45 left in the third quarter, Pine View took possession after forcing the Redmen into a three-and-out. A holding penalty forced Pine View into a second-and-18 from their own 16-yard line. Mpungi got the ball and ran out to the 42-yard line for a 26-yard gain. Mpungi then ran to the Redmen 37-yard line for a 17-yard gain. In all, he finished with 18 carries for 114 yards and one touchdown.

The Panthers then went to Brown on four straight plays again. Brown got the final 37 yards, finishing the drive off with a 10-yard touchdown run with 3:19 left in the third quarter.

“When they key on me, we give it to Brown,” Mpungi said. “When they key on him, we give it to me. Either way we’re gonna hurt them.”

Brown finished the game with 26 carries for 111 yards, as well as going 6 for 6 for 88 yards in the passing game.

Neither team could get anything going until late in the fourth quarter. After the Panthers hit a 23-yard field goal to extend the lead to 17-3, the Redmen took possession with six minutes to go, looking for a way to get back into the game.

Cedar moved the ball down to the Pine View 38-yard line after an interception was called back for a defensive holding. Garrett found Maggio again for a 15 yard gain to the Panthers 23-yard line, putting the Redmen in striking distance.

With 2:09 left in the game, Garrett dropped back to pass and threw the ball deep to Tayvien Brown. But the pass was overthrown, and the ball landed in the hands of Mpungi, who was playing cornerback. The interception ended all hope of the Redmen coming back, as they only had one timeout left.

The Panthers ran out the rest of the clock, securing the road win.

“The talk all week going into this game was to control our own destiny,” Meier said. “Let the chips fall where they may, we go into the next week, make sure we win another game and everybody kind of pans out. We want to put ourselves in the best position. Wherever it is, we just want to make sure we got a spot in the playoffs.”

With the Panthers win, four teams are now tied for second place in Region 9 with 3-2 records.

The Panthers will host Canyon View on Oct. 20 to close out the season, with a win securing them a spot in the playoffs. A loss will result in a tiebreaker.

Cedar will host Dixie on Oct. 19, with a win securing a playoff spot, while a loss puts the postseason in jeopardy. The winner of Snow Canyon and Desert Hills will get the playoff spot secured, while the loser will have to hope to win a tiebreaker (or play-in game), if the need arises.

Dixie 36, Desert Hills 21
