All opinions given are my own.
We’ve tried all kinds of chore systems, but until recently have met with little success.
There are 4 Zones: Living Room, Kitchen, Bathrooms, and Bedrooms. There is a space on the chart to fill in the child’s name or names to be responsible for that zone for the day. I have our kids work in teams of two on each zone. One of the girls always works with one of the boys. The girls help keep the boys on task…since the boys are younger, they do tend to get distracted more easily. I try to switch up who works with who on a daily basis. I float between the zones to help out and make sure things are getting done properly.
There is also a space on the chart to fill in the times of day each zone needs to be completed. I’m not super-specific on the times. I usually just fill in “morning”, “afternoon”, or “lunch time”…you get the picture. Sometimes each zone needs to be done more than once a day. Each zone has 3 time slots you can fill in.
There is also a page to fill in extra daily chores for each zone. This is the page where you can really customize this system to work in your home, with your kids’ ages and abilities. My kids are still pretty young, so I don’t really use this page much yet. The core of the system is enough for right now. But, as they get older, this system can grow with them as I can add to it. Even with the kids doing just the basics, it takes some of the strain off of me, so that I can tend to other tasks that need to be done as well.

hey do not know where to begin. While I understand the fear, if we lived by that we would never do anything.
So how should you start? Although I didn't do this, I would recommend getting some strong biblical, theological and apologetic background. Definitely do not start until you have read the Bible front to back and the New Testament multiple times. There are plenty of good introductory apologetics books that you can read. I would also suggest listening to some apologetics podcasts or apologetics courses on iTunes.
The key is not to become an 'apologetics junkie' without ever doing apologetics. Even after reading two books you should be ready to try. You do not begin by debating a philosophy professor. You begin by keeping your ears open to apologetics opportunities. Listen to see if these topics come up in conversation. Look for ways to introduce apologetics-related topics into conversations. Bring up books and documentaries. Be on the internet. If you can't find apologetics opportunities on the internet you are not trying.

Andalucía’s capital is undoubtedly one of Spain’s most evocative cities.I love visiting Seville, as it is a city where striking architecture and fascinating history is brought alive by the unique energy and culture of Southern Spain. It doesn’t feel like a theme park – it’s a vibrant, living city.
For a luxury city centre stay, in the heart of Seville’s labyrinthine old town, then choose the family-owned Hotel Corral del Rey Seville, a historic property full of eclectic, creative style and upscale elegance, writes Andrew Forbes.
Seville is emblematic of the warmth, colour and energy of Spanish culture.
This is a exotic, captivating city that makes for a compelling city break. Over the years I have got to know it well, and without doubt the best place to stay is within old town. Not only does this historic quarter convey the magic and charm of Seville, but it also means you are in walking distance of pretty much all the sights.
Corral del Rey is one of the most established boutique hotels in the city. Created by a family with a consistent track-record in luxury hospitality, the property is within converted ‘casa palacios’; striking noble houses once homes to the city’s wealthy when Seville was at the epicentre of world trade with the Americas.
One enters the 17th century Corral del Rey through huge old studded doors into a classic Andalusian courtyard patio, surrounded by ancient Roman columns.
Look up and you can take in the landings of each guest floor, each with evocative Mudéjar woodwork, right up to the top where one finds a roof terrace and honour bar.
The lobby is intimate, full of artistic and historic details, reflecting the personalised style of this boutique hotel.
The design is charming and authentic – you really feel you are in Southern Spain. The walls of each of the three buildings of Corral de Rey exude the spirit of old town, and the thoughtful, homey, cosy design touches make you not want to leave.
Each guest room has been thoughtfully decorated and styled – not only featured upscale materials but plenty of homey touches.
Over the years Corral del Rey has expanded, converting an adjacent noble house and a property opposite. Thanks to this new expansion, the hotel has been able to offer more rooms, including the very stylish Pool Terrace Suites.
There are now 17 rooms, including 5 splendid junior suites, two new pool terrace suites and a unique penthouse suite.
I have stayed in different rooms in the hotel, and all of them offer the same warm, welcoming feel. It’s something about the décor, the eclectic mix of old and new; luxury features blended with boho chic details that all add up to a very special ambiance.
This is a hotel that is just so comfortable and relaxing.
If you want to feel even more relaxed, you can pre-book an in-room massage.
The personal touches extend beyond the lovely fresh flowers in the room, to a welcome card and a gift of olive oil from the family’s estate hotel in the countryside outside Seville. You can read our review of the splendid Hacienda San Rafael here.
Each guest room has a well-stocked minibar, with a genuinely tempting selection of drinks. In addition, there is an easy-to-use coffee espresso maker machine with capsules; and a kettle for tea.
Bathrooms are of honey coloured marble or striking black granite, with stylish Rituals amenities, and all the expected hotel details like robes etc.
Pool Terrace Suites take guest rooms to a new level; literally. On the top floor, these duplex rooms, offer all the cosy intimacy of a classic Corral del Rey room.
Yet these special rooms have the added luxury of one’s own plunge pool, and seating area, amongst sun, shade and potted olive trees.
The hotel has plenty of relaxing areas to kick back and relax. The hotel’s roof terrace, with views over the rooftops and spires of the Santa Cruz neighbourhood towards the striking Giralda clock tower of Seville’s cathedral, has a plunge pool, tables for enjoying snacks (there is a full honour bar) as well as sunbeds.
The second building has a charming drawing room, full of travel guides and hard back coffee table books as well as another fully stocked honour bar, where you can enjoy a slice of homemade cake each afternoon.
The restaurant and bar, home to a find collection of original art, is a warm and sociable space for drinks, informal light bites, as well as tapas and late-night nibbles of Andalusian classic snacks.
This is also the place for breakfast. Thankfully the hotel operates a relaxed attitude and breakfast is served until quite late. It’s a simple, mix of Mediterranean and classic breakfast treats. Small cakes are waiting for you at the table as you order your coffee or tea. Then a generous basket of breads arrives; together with the glorious orange juice. Butter and jams are there too – or olive oil and salt if you want to be a little more Andalusian.
the choices are even wider, from classic joints, tomore contemporary restaurants with creative, modern offerings.
As a regional capital expect plenty of culture too, from fine art galleries, to excellent flamenco shows; and concerts too. Or you can simply wander the streets discovering the city, its architecture and culture for yourself – it’s a magical place. The team at Corral del Rey will be happy to arrange food or city tours, excursions to the surrounding countryside and activities. But chances are, if you’re like me, you won’t want to .


Yom Kippur demands so much from us!To navigate all the demands with an empty stomach and recite all those words with parched mouths is a real challenge. And then, there are the sermons. I deliver one in the evening and one in the morning; several of my colleagues deliver three. More words!At least, the congregation can take a rest from the demand of perpetual utterance, and simply listen for a while – but listening isn’t easy either…


Watch: Tiny Woman Eats 72oz Steak in Three Minutes, Sets World Record, Makes Us Jealous
For some reason, watching this video isn’t as disgusting as, say, competitive hot dog eating: Schuyler, who must be part wolf, rips apart the steak with nothing but her bare hands and teeth, and it’s rather primal and beautiful. Ugh, look at us, getting sentimental about competitive eating.
Anyway, watch her record attempt below and be in awe:

Many people have an image of God like a gene in a lamp—just rub and make a wish.  “Ask and you will receive, seek and you will find, knock and the door will be opened.”
If that were the case—then we are the Masters in control of the lamp and God does what we say.  Where would we be?  Is our wisdom greater than the wisdom of God?  Folks who are mature in their faith know that God does not always give us what we ask.  The Lord always listens to our prayers and always answers—but sometimes the answer is “no”.  The disciples had the same questions that we have.  So they asked Jesus to teach them how to pray.  He gave them the perfect prayer--the “Lord’s Prayer—the Our Father”.  Notice that there aren’t to many “give me’s” in the Our Father—just the essentials.  Praise to the Name of God—Hallowed be your name—a name not to be taken in vain, or used to curse, or said in jokes.  “Your kingdom come.”  Remember that Jesus said, “The Kingdom is all around you—just open your eyes.”  Eternity starts now, not when we die, not when we go to heaven, but right now.  What we see is what we get and we are responsible—the world we have is the one we have made.  God did not invent pollution.  We ask for daily bread—that means what we need to survive.  No where does Jesus suggest that we ask to be rich.  What we need is very different that what we want.  About one half of the world population goes to bed hungry every night.  Sad part—there is enough food in the world so that no one needs to be hungry.  Does God provide?  Does God care that some folks don’t have enough to eat?  Of course Yes—but the food—the resources are in the hands of a few while others have nothing.  Here comes the easy part:  “Forgive us our sins.”  And God always forgives us—gladly—no matter how big our sin is—over and over.
We are the ones who have difficulty forgiving ourselves and consequently forgiving each other.  There is a connection.  If we cannot or we refuse to forgive ourselves we cannot forgive anyone else.  That’s why the prayer is intimately connected—“forgive us as we forgive those who have hurt us.”  Involves “letting go”, “not wanting to be in control”, not holding a grudge.  Lack of forgiveness is why families stop talking to each other—one of the reasons that we can’t sleep at night—and might even cause wrinkles.  (no proof on that one)  Certainly holding on to hurts causes anxiety—a we know that a prune is a worried plum.  Actually takes more energy to have resentments than to forgive.
The “final test” comes many times in our life.  Temptation is part of life.  God’s mercy is more powerful—to Him we look for our salvation.  The Father is always ready to give us the Holy Spirit.

Leaves aren’t always green. Sometimes, they turn brown.
1st October is Nigeria’s Independence Day celebration. We should’ve been marching thadump thadump thadump in greens and whites and flying the flags and singing the anthem and reciting the pledge, but we did not. We tucked our legs under the blankets, eyes on the television now and then, to see what the President had to say. We sent text messages to our kit and kin, and let out our hearts on social media. We did not, because we’re afraid that Boko Haram would catch us, squeeze us piiiii, torture us, slice us, roast us, eat us and wash us down their black wrinkled intestines with fresh cow milk.
Speaking of wars, when my Grandma Ona was still alive, she said life was beautiful with the white men. But of course, only if you were willing to learn their language – their asumiri sumiri. She said that they lived fascinating lives and were white in colour, like ndi muo ozi – angels. She said that a lot of things happened – none beautiful – that were not meant for our ears. That it was a nightmare which lasted for days and nights unending. That Children suffered because their parents were dead and hungry or because they were abandoned or simply because of war.
On one of the really bad days, the ogbunigwe came so close, she took my father and his siblings down to the bunker Grandpa Iloka had built. The bunker they shared with the extended Echendu family. Even down there, the gbim gbim from the war front sounded so close that they all shuddered. Soon, Ego, her only daughter, would shiver until there was no breath left in her lungs and she would die of shivering in Grandma Ona’s hands. Grandpa Iloka was out on a mission. He would later come back, mute and expressionless, without emotions. Whatever Grandma Ona did would not loosen him up, even with such great connection they had – like square pegs would fit into square holes. Grandpa Iloka would never get back to his old self until he dies, twenty seven years after the war.
“He lived a very normal life after the war,” Grandma Ona said, “but of course, that depends on what living entails, for you. People who survived this war were no longer able to distinguish between living and dying anymore, and the war lived on in our hearts, in our heads.”
- I got an offer to study Psychology but we didn’t resume on the official day, 2nd October, because they said they wanted to be patriotic Nigerians.
When lectures finally began after Independence Day celebration, they took up all of my being. I had the challenge, not just of meeting new topics for which I had no interest in, but also of getting to see happy, frustrated, interesting and weird persons who were nothing like me.
I had the privilege of a quasi-orientation from older students who simply wanted to familiarize. They said all the lecturers were typically insane. I could manage to study a course I didn’t know about but I did not know about coping with mind-wrecking talk given by men from the moon.
There was one who always said stuffs; like a schizophrenic. Dr Abamara.
“Imbeciles! I’ll kick your asses!”
“Goddammit! All of you will fail my course!” He bellowed stomping out of the hall.
He actually kicked someone’s ass on one of the days. Jungle justice.
Several years ago, this is how it was done – Children, always Children, would dress in outing uniforms, feet in white socks – always white socks, heads high on necks, and march thadump thadump thadump to the stadiums. They would be full of hopes, singing anthems and making pledges and listening to stories of how Dr. Nnamdi Azikiwe helped Nigeria become an independent state. They would wait for the coming of the Governor who would arrive at 14 o’clock and give his salute. They would march thadump thadump thadump back home to their holidaying parents or guardians.
Today is October 1st but not that year.
The next time we met, I asked for it. This time, in our make–believe–five–hours–home. He gently stripped me of every covering and led me to get him bare. We were us, in our world of loving, riding to paradise. He was my prince in shining amour, everything I could wish for. We danced while they sang. Man and woman, like Adam and Eve.
They hummed, and our limbs and torsos and hips were entangled with the sheets and hairs and moistures. He was taking his time to love every piece of me and I swear I could eat him raw. Because I thought I saw a big nice pink hot dog. I couldn’t tell which was my leg or his tongue or my organ or his thick dark fingers used to create sounds that inspires people to dance. Suddenly, he wanted in.
“What? Not so!”
“I love you so much and want you to be happy, but not this.”
“I want it all now, I’ll be gentle. I’ll take care of you.”
“Can we meet up today? I want everything now. You’re my hero and I want to crown you today. I need you inside of me. Take me to that place you promised.”
I passed through the bad road and we met at another make-believe-three-hours home. I imagined that the call girls on Allen Avenue, in Lagos, would do exactly the same thing; only they would do theirs at night. So you see how I am a prostitute, right? I thought of it for the last time and without sparing a minute, I pulled off the last piece of his underwear.
When I had finished the dance with the darling, I lazily broke away from his presence. People do not dance all day and night, do they?
As I stepped out, onto the bad road again, reality imposed itself on my senses. I had to get home, and by road. But I tell you, I never really got home. About two thousand men, women and children wouldn’t let me go through
They were singing many different songs, just moving a little forward and backward. So, I walked gracefully to an elderly woman around me because old age was definitely wisdom.
She said it is Biafra, that Nigeria was dead. She said they have come out en masse, to mourn dear Nigeria and enthrone Biafra, the living. She said the world does not become static because one person has gone to the world beyond, that life should go on, and that the citizens of Biafra have been stretched beyond their endurance limit. She said frustration, bitterness, anger, terror and revenge.
Then, I saw the road block and I heard sirens.
“This is madness!” I cursed under my breath.

Nearly all marketers polled agreed that marketing technology is resulting in improved ROI overall. In addition, Ascend2 found more than half of respondents said the increase is “significant” with the right technology.
Still, forecasting ROI is one of the top obstacles standing in the way of marketing technology investments. More than four in 10 (44%) of those polled felt that predicting a new technology’s potential effect on returns was a key challenge.

There's a whole lot of puppets and a whole lot of chains in Puppet on a Chain, a tight little thriller based on a novel by Alistair MacLean. MacLean was the kind of writer who, like Ian Fleming, wrote about what he knew, and when that ran out, just about managed to write about more fanciful worlds he was less familiar with. Thus, MacLean became something of a magnet for zeitgeist, and this 1971 thriller has a whiff of The French Connection and other, more reactionary drug-fuelled dramas of the time.
The Hostage Tower was directed by Claudio Guzman, whose main credits were the I Dream of Jeannie tv show, but he fails to bring the same intensity or vision to Hostage Tower. What he does do is capture the strangest cast of actors gathered together in Paris to look upwards; pretty much everyone is on the skids here. There's an unusual emphasis on how terrorists train, although these sequences don't match the actual tower assault, which features Williams dressed as a cartoon chef pushing a massive soup-tureen past idiotic security guards.
After enduring an age of pretty-boy vehicles (Alfie), Jude Law has gained in intensity what he's lost in looks. Law plays Robinson, a submarine expert in Kevin Macdonald's serviceable action film, pulling together a mercenary crew in a search of hidden gold on an abandoned Nazi submarine. Something in the vein of Alistair MacLean's Ice Station Zebra, right down to Scott McNairy in the Patrick McGoohan role of US interloper, Macdonald maintains a decent tension through a few tricky hairpins, which Michael Friend typically oily in support. Law's accent is flawless, and if the action doesn't have a big-budget for spectacle, the close-quarters action makes for a grown-up slice of derring-do.
John Wick 2014 *****
Always a good mover, Keanu Reeves's combination of Zen-blankness and physical mobility made him a perfect action lead in Speed, The Matrix; Chad Stahelski and David Leitch's thriller gives him plenty of opportunity to show his skills. Taking a lead from the writings of Alistair MacLean, we're talking about tough ex-agents rather than genetically modified soldiers. John Wick is a man on a mission, to revenge the death of his dog, which was given to him by his dying wife. Wick rips through hotels, nightclubs, and a kill-a-minute as he rages through a rigorous, glorious HR cull of various crime organisations, with nice work in support from Willem Dafoe, Dean Winters, Ian McShane and Michael Nyquist.
Barry Newman made a perfect Kowalski in Vanishing Point, one of the classic car-chase movies, but there's actually more action, in the form of a whopping twenty minute stunt scene, in this 1972 adaptation of Alistair MacLean's novel. Newman plays John Talbot, who infiltrates a criminal organisation in order to revenge his family, who died in an air-crash. Early roles for Ray McInally and Ben Kingsley, plus a villainous turn from John Vernon, are plus points, but it's Michael Tuchner's staging of the chase, with Newman's brand-new Ford Gran Torino escaping the cops, that gives Fear Is The Key a place in cult-movie history. Roy Budd provides a jazzy score.

Since the implementation of the “0 + 3” entry quarantine measure with effect from 26 September 2022, there is a gradual increase in outbound travel enquiries and start organizing outbound tour group. On the other hand, inbound travel agents are also in preparation to welcome overseas visitors again.

Yet another hotel in Newquay has ‘succumbed’ to financial pressures and will be closing in the new year to be demolished and replaced with flats.
Narrowcliff, which used to boast several hotels, is going to lose another of its iconic businesses to make way for a modern apartment block.
The Cliffdene Hotel, owned by Grand UK Hotels, will close in January, and Cliffedge Newquay Ltd has submitted a planning application this week to Cornwall Council for the hotel to be knocked down.
The application reads: “The Cliffdene Hotel has been trading at a loss for the past two years due in part to the pressures from the changing visitor market and in light of the financial position the hotel will close in January 2019.”

The company said the decline in the catering industry was to blame.
“Significant changes have taken place to the hotel and visitor accommodation market in Newquay and Cornwall as a whole over the past 10 to 15 years,” the application adds.
The site and the one next door could be turned into this building (Image: Planning application)
“Numerous former hotels in Newquay have closed with the sites being redeveloped for residential apartment developments with the given trend and demand for high-quality self-catering visitor accommodation.
Major redevelopment is back under way along Newquay's prime clifftop roads ten years after the recession stopped everything
“The decline in the hotel market in Newquay is as a result of the changing market and ever-increasing visitor expectations with small hotels no longer being viable. The Cliffdene Hotel is therefore no exception to this trend and has finally succumbed to closure having suffered financial losses.”
This is what the plans look like (Image: Planning application)
The applicant said that, considering that Newquay is losing another hotel, the proposed development aimed to provide a viable regeneration development for the site.
“Substantial investment would therefore be required for any refurbishment of the Cliffdene Hotel and, in light of the changed market and competition from budget hotels, any refurbishment would not be fundable or viable,” the application states.
The letter in full sent from Cornwall businesses to our MPs over the Brexit deal
“It is therefore considered that the economic loss of the hotel will be more than offset by the proposed residential apartments. It is also considered that the economic benefits of a viable development on this prominent site in Newquay outweighs the loss of the hotel.
The proposed building would containt 39 flats (Image: Planning application)
“The proposed development is therefore aimed at developing high-quality visitor accommodation to support Newquay’s position as a leading UK tourist destination and supports the drive for all year round visitor and tourist economy.”
It has been proposed to turn the Cliffdene Hotel and the vacant site next door into 39 flats, with underground parking. The car park would offer 45 spaces, including two disability spaces.

The building would be 5,752sqm, and offer 31 two-bedroom flats and eight three-bedroom flats.
Cornwall Council is set to consider the plans by February 27.
Several hotels and a pub on Narrowcliff have closed over the years, some being knocked down and some remaining derelict.
Ten years ago a major redevelopment programme was aimed at planning to replace them with modern apartments. However, the recession hit and building work was put on hold.


That time…..I shared poncho space with a rabbit.
NOTE: This is another in a series of blogs that will share interesting experiences in nature. It is always our goal to help people to enjoy spending more time outside, and to do so safely.
The thought of being outdoors and sleeping in the rain is wonderful to some and troubling to others. The pitter (is that a word?) of rain on a tent, hammock rain fly or similar, to me, is one of those things I actually look forward to. I enjoy it. When it is hot, a rain coming in, will almost always cool the air off enough to make it great sleeping weather.
There are a number of rain events I have experienced during my outdoor excursions that are worthy of re-telling. I am sure I will get around to doing so as we continue this series. For this one however, I want to tell you about the time that I woke up in a survival shelter during a class and noticed I had a rabbit in the shelter with me.
The class I speak of was not one I was leading. I was actually a student in this one. I was attending a Scout/Tracker class that was being led by Richard Cleveland of Earth School and Tom Laskowski of Mid-West Native Skills institute. On our first day we were told to do some important tasks. Those tasks led me to a position of needing to develop a sleep shelter hastily with minimal supplies. I quickly set up a military poncho over a bent sapling. It was quick and easy and provided plenty of coverage for my upper body. I have slept many times outside directly on the ground with no cover for various reasons. Some of those times were in the pouring rain. It has been my experience thus far that I am good-to-go as long as water doesn’t regularly drip or hit on my face. Therefore I can get pretty good sleep even if I am getting rained on, as long as said rain, avoids my face. At least, most of the time (note the foreshadowing).
That is the reason I set up this hasty shelter during the class because while my legs and waist were outside getting rained on, my upper body was staying dry and I was getting really good sleep. At some point, the rain got so heavy that water was running down the crack of my you-know-what and pudding near my other you-know-what. It was at that point that I awoke. For you see puddled water near my you-know-what doesn’t provide a warm fuzzy feeling at all.
 When I woke up and started the process of trying to figure out a way to un-puddle my you-know-what I flipped my headlamp on. It was at that moment that I discovered that a very large Eastern cottontail rabbit had joined me under my hasty shelter sometime during the night.
 It was an enjoyable night and I got plenty of rest. When I awoke the next morning, my little buddy was gone. Just like the bobcat, no bro hug, no good bye, no nothing. Just gone.
If I were to summarize this experience into a usable lesson it would be two-fold.
Rabbits are cool.
Water puddled at your-know-what is not warm and fuzzy.
Until next time, come on, join in, let’s learn together!


Will Apple Pay really encourage people to switch cards?
Apple says a single wallet encourages competition, but the evidence is mixed.
The Apple Pay versus most of the Big Four banks stoush rumbles onjudgement in November suggesting that Apple couldn't be forced to negotiate with banks collectively, it hasn't yet made a final decision. That means the ACCC is still taking submissions, and Apple added to the pile it has already contributed with a new document that was made public recently.
Some of the document revisits familiar ground from this case: Apple arguing that security will be violated if anyone else uses its NFC chip for payments and that banks are scared of competition. One tantalising section labelled "recent developments" has been entirely redacted, along with figures for how many times major bank apps have been downloaded in Australia.
But one claim is worth examining in a little more detail: that Apple Pay will make it more likely that customers will switch between cards to take advantage of bonus offers.
Apple Pay fosters competition between payment card issuers at the point of sale due to the ease with which customers can switch between cards within the Apple Wallet app. This is not possible within the banks' own proprietary issuer digital wallets, which limit the choice for the customer to only payment cards issued by that bank . . . It is easy for consumers to set a certain payment card as the "default" card and switch between payment cards, so card issuers offer consumers discounts and promotions to convince consumers to use their payment cards in Apple Pay. Wallet in Australia, the same increase in competition between issuers for payment services s.
By way of example, Apple includes promotions that have run overseas, including getting extra frequent flyer points or free credit at McDonald's when you use a specific card with Apple Pay.
I'm all for consumers taking advantage of bonus offers for their credit cards; our regular Rewards Roundup highlights all the ones we can find each week. So if Apple Pay brings more of those offers to the market, well and good. But I'm sceptical that these offers, in themselves, will induce people to sign up for multiple cards and then constantly switch to score the best bonuses.
That's largely a matter of psychology. Part of the appeal of contactless payments is that they require almost no effort. They reward the lazy, not the diligent. Most people will end up using the default card all the time, even if they have other choices. And even enthusiastic points collectors have their limits, not least of which is that applying for too many cards can actually impact your credit score.
Nothing has really changed. It seems unlikely that the ACCC will change its mind when it issues its final decision. There are still plenty of choices if you want a card that supports Apple Pay, so there's no real need to wait.
What does the ACCC's Apple Pay decision mean?
"No evidence has been advanced."
Apple: "Banks are not interested in promoting competition in mobile payments"
Apple: "This is not open to negotiation with any bank"

UNne ne. This is curious in light of it indeed has any jurisdiction whatsoever regarding the Palestinian complaints, and whether a non-state can indeed be a party to the ICC statute. Moreover, this measure ignores the basic question whether, pursuant to the ICC statute, a "State of Palestine" can be party when no Palestinian state exists, apart from in a non-binding General Assembly upgrade recommendation, which is far from being a legal ground for acceptance. All this indicates that the ICC is venturing far beyond its role and is being politically manipulated - or is manipulating itself - against its own better interests. .

Great news for the jailbreak community, iOS developer and Chronic Dev Team’s key member, Pod2g, has successfully completed iOS 5.1 untethered jailbreak. He announced this good news in a tweet: “”
Earlier Pod2g has asked users to vote whether they want him to release the jailbreak for iOS 5.1 or keep his exploits for the upcoming iOS 6. Remember jailbreaking a device does require quite a lot of effort. Finding vulnerabilities in the software and then writing and packaging exploits takes time..


If Democrats win back the Senate this fall, don't expect a rush to pass the Green New Deal or Medicare for All.
The failure of left-wing candidates in their primaries has prompted soul-searching among many progressive leaders who now believe that they neglected the task of organizing and building a downballot bench as they were caught up in the thrall of Sanders' candidacy. It is also a victo, who recruited most of the primary victors, viewing them as more likely to win general elections.


At the time my experience was limited to shooting actors’ headshots and models’ portfolios, and I worked mostly with daylight because I found flash a little bit too stressful.
The next day I picked up the products and headed back to my studio – and by “studio” I mean my lounge room. I then spent the next three days trying to figure out how to photograph soft drink bottles.
My soft drink baptism of fire took three days, dozens of rolls of film, and several jars of Nutella (it helps with stress relief). There were a few occasions where I wanted to give up, call Jonathan and confess that I was a complete and utter fraud, but I didn’t. I pushed through and finally at the 11th hour I got the shot. It ended up costing me more than $150 in film and processing (the same as the fee I was receiving), but I delivered a final product. The shot wasn’t going to win me Soft Drink Photographer of the Year, but it was good enough. Jonathan was happy and from that moment on he started to send me more work.
It would have been much cheaper, easier and less time consuming for me to play safe with Jonathan and tell him I wasn’t ready to shoot soft drink bottles. I took a risk, and it may have gone to caca but if I spent my life worrying about everything that might go wrong or every reason I might fail, I would probably still be cooking pasta in an Italian restaurant.
To be honest, I haven’t been 100% “ready” for any of the opportunities that came my way. I don’t believe you can ever be ready for your first time. Y be able to figure it out as you go.
I photographed my first flash on camera PR event with a cheat sheet in my back pocket in case I messed up my camera settings.
I used a similar technique when I shot my first celebrity portrait. I had tested my lights on a styrofoam dummy (named Wayne).
Was I ready? Heck no! I was nervous; my I thought I was going to pass out, but I said yes.
In an ideal world, opportunity will knock at 11am on a Wednesday when your camera batteries are charged; you’ve had a great night sleep, and there is a full tank of petrol in the car. The reality is opportunity has a wicked sense of humour and will wait until the most inconvenient moment to pay you a visit.
I once got a call from opportunity in the middle of moving and renovating studios. I had been working 16 hour days – shooting by day, painting the walls of my new studio by night.
I’m pretty sure I still had paint in my hair when I turned up to the event, but that little “yes” turned into a lucrative gig that lasted for 12 years.
So next time opportunity knocks, calls or sends a text, and you have paint in your hair and doubt in your mind, say yes anyway.


SeveralMartha Pullen School of Art Fashion on a couple of occasions and all of her Quilt Academy events, of which I believe there were five. Loved those Quilt Academy events by the way. They were absolutely awesome!Talk about brain overload that very first event!
The purpose of this writing is to share with you something that was sent to me, quite unexpectedly, free of charge. Now, I give lots of "stuff" away at our camps, to guilds for their special events, and during special events that we hold throughout the year here in the shop. Although I greatly enjoy giving, I also like gettingwhat I've been given comes as a complete surprise. Such is the case with the most recent copy, Spring 2016, of A Needle Pulling Thread magazine. It came one day in a brown envelope with the word SAMPLE on the outside. Surprise!
I have bought this magazine a few times, mainly the holiday issues, at Books-a-Million. The thing I enjoy most about this Canadian publication is that it's chocked full of all kinds of creativity. Instead of being a one-sided publication, as are the quilting magazines that I tend to peruse, this publication has a little bit of everything, because after all, aren't most of us who are creative multi-faceted and creative in more than just one arena?
So, what's in this issue I have you wondering?It might be easier to tell you what's not in this issue. For example, there's no woodworking or macramé. But I was delighted to see that there are six quilting projects including a table runner, lap quilt, placemats, chair back covers, a bed scarf (we tend to call them bed runners), and a quilt made using denim. Can you say "recycle!"?
One project that really caught my attention and made me giddy was the pattern for making a teapot cozy. Those who know me well know I enjoy having and collecting tea things. Trust me; I have enough tea in the house to float a battle ship!But after all these years of enjoying tea on pretty much a daily basis, I have yet to buy, let alone make, a tea cozy. I've bought the patterns for making one but just haven't gotten around to it yet. Maybe, just maybe, I'll give the pattern in the magazine a whirl. If/when I do, you'll be the first to know. The plus with the cozy pattern here is that the handle is not covered. I've learned that covering the handle of a good teapot is not a good idea. Not only does the tea stay hot when covered, but the handle gets hot as well. When I say hot, I mean really hot, as in too hot to handle. No pun intended. Since the pattern can be adjusted, I can make a cozy for my large teapot that holds several cups as well as my two-cup teapot that I won from teadog.com. I love that little teapot!
Not into quilting or sewing?How about knitting, cross-stitch, punchneedle, rug hooking, crochet, embroidery – either hand or machine, purse making, or beading?

It’sIn looking for the right mattress, you’ve probably come to realize that “firm” and “comfortable” are rarely in the same sentence; it’s as if it were an oxymoron!
You either come across a mattress that offers support but isn’t comfy, or you come across one that’s plush but doesn’t offer any support. If you’re looking for the ideal blend of firmness and comfort, search no further than the Nectar Sleep Mattress.
Hardness: medium firm (5.5-6 on a scale of 1 to 10).
Expansion Period: 24 hours.
Warranty: Forever warranty.
It converts back to its untouched state once you remove your body weight, so every time you get out of bed, it will look and feel as the day you first got it.
The base layer is dense yet breathable, drawing fresh air through specialized channels.
It’s the densest, most breathable material on the market and the main reason why Nectar backs their mattresses with a forever warranty.
This brand’s business model is to cut out the middleman and send mattresses straight from the factory to the homes of consumers, making their products cheaper without sacrificing quality.
Free Shipping: Always a welcomed bonus, especially when ordering larger items online. NExtended Trial Period & Warranty: While a lot of test out your new mattress, Nectar goes above and beyond by extending that trial period to a full year. As for the warranty, it literally lasts forever.
The bed is designed to not sink, but if it does, you can send it in for repair. If this is impossible, then you get a free replacement.
The warranty also covers the replacement of any cover that gets worn out – just call.
Basically, if you have any issues, contact Nectar and they should be able to handle it.
This removes the headache from having to negotiate with post offices or delivery services.
Mattresses come to your door in a duffel-bag like carrier and is compressed which reduces the amount of tugging and lugging you’ll have to do to get it totally set up.
Nectar also offers a “white glove”You don’t want to wake your partner every time you get out of bed, or vice versa.
We mentioned that the Nectar mattress is certified for safety.
These mattresses are relatively cheap, and even the most expensive ones (the King and California King) are available at a competitive price.
While we mention that Nectar mattresses come in at a competitive price, you still don’t have to cough up a full payment right off the bat.
Don’t expect to fulfill any whimsical desires on this mattress.
When you let this mattress expand, there is an off-gassing smell that is pretty strong.
Customers have had mixed reviews about Nectar’s customer service, and there have been plenty of complaints regarding late mattress shipments, difficult mattress returns, lack of communication, and late (or nonexistent) pillow shipments.
It’s great for those who want plenty of support and none of the heat of a traditional memory foam mattress, and especially for those who want to avoid paying more for less.
Hi, can you tell me how the mattress is sent back during the free trial if not wanted?


Isn’t it wonderful when the the ideas words or content for your novel flow? You find yourself moving from word to phrase to sentences then paragraphs and finally chapters as ideas flow freely. Your nearly euphoric with delight. Suddenly without warning, you come to a grinding halt and stumble and momentarily falter. You’ve hit a crossroad; a pivotal moment in your story. It’s huge, important, monumental and will shape the remainder of your novel and the fate of your characters.
Which path do you take? Each scenario offers a varying alternative that could lead to on one hand, a happy or sad outcome. You wonder, ponder determining if it best serves the story line to leave the final outcome unanswered and your beloved reader to formulate a suitable ending of their own. Instead, you might hint or suggest a possible result or consequence. Most satisfying of all, an unexpected twist that delivers your reader into a shocking and surprising possibility impossible to foresee.
After all obstacles are overcome, the moment is upon us, will our hero/heroine be victorious? Will we deliver our reader from a vortex of emotion which can only be satisfied by a single outcome? Or will they wonder as our quest goes unanswered and our protagonist suffers the unending torment of a partial answer while a piece of the puzzle remains unfinished thereby settling uneasily in the corner of their mind and which will certainly require the advent of a return to the subject and answers found.
I appreciate your comments. I am having such a day myself as I cannot bring myself to write so much as a 4 or 500 word post that pertains to today’s word prompt. Some days are good while others are bad.
It’s so true, some times I think it is the subject matter, a word that hasn’t been a huge part of our world and therefore requires more thought and definitely inventiveness in order to wrap our mind around it.
Everyone has days where inspiration takes the back burner. Honestly I love the word prompt. Whether I’m inspired or not, others are, and its a great way to learn. Everyone sees things so differently and one little word can be viewed so many ways.
I wrote a scene, a game changer, a whopper if you will. Still I cringe when I think about it, and wonder if I made the right choice. That I do probably means I did and my readers will be stunned or saddened. But yes those moments are hard when you have to choose the fate of the people you govern.
That is so true! It happens often enough and the struggle is over before it begins, lol.

THE Police and Crime Commissioner for Cleveland has urged the government to rethink its funding to tackle serious violence after the area was excluded from a share of a £98m fund.
PCC Barry Coppinger said he wanted to challenge the decision following eight years of "systematic underfunding" in policing, which he claims has cost Cleveland Police, 500 police officers and 50 PCSOs since 2010.
Mr Coppinger also invited the Home Secretary Priti PatelOctober to see the force in action.
In a letter to Ms Patel, Mr Coppinger said he wanted to 'address' inequalities in the decision to exclude the force and not invite forces, or allow other PCCs to make a case for their own area.
He said: ""
Last week, eighteen PCCs from across the country were awarded a share of £35m, part of a £98m serious violence fund, to set up their own Violence Reduction Units.
Delet crime per 1,000 people in the country, Cleveland was not selected.
Mr Coppinger said the government's decision-making in sharing out the funding across forces had been solely based on the number of hospital admissions for people that had been 'assaulted with a sharp object'.
He said: ",“If the g."
Mr Coppinger said it was imperative that government reconsidered their decision to use hospital figures.
He said: “It’s imperative that the government rethinks their decision to use hospital admission figures as a measure for serious violence, to ensure that areas like Cleveland have the resources they need to tackle an issue that has a lasting impact on victims and communities.”
In the region, Northumbria's PCC and force was awarded £1.6m to set up a Violence Reduction Unit.


Hello, I am interested in bottom-up terrain LOD algorithms. Where can I read something on this topic? I found only up-down algorithms, where patches are being subdivided into triangles, basing on a needed LOD. I need something reverse - points are being joined into triangles. I hope everything is clear.
The bottom-up approach terrain LOD approach has been generally abandoned in favour of top-down due to the algorithms being very input sensitive and therefore doesn't scale to large terrain datasets. Why are you interested in bottom-up approaches?
Anyway, try looking at Lindstrom et al.: "Real-time, continuous level of detail rendering of height fields".


Consumer group Which? said the new code should have gone further, such as raising minimum credit card repayments.
Were the FSA to be regulating itself, given its recent report about its failings, it would have failed itself.

The downturn and continued uncertainty wrt the economy adds to
I am not the only person who believes that the Bank of England and Mervyn King have been slow to realise the dangers of the ongoing credit crunch.
Hector Sants the CEO of the beleaguered Financial Services Authority (FSA) has many months, namely that its handling of Northern Rock was unacceptable.
It said that its supervisory teams had failed to follow up with Northern Rock on the vulnerability of its business model, as the credit crisis took hold last summer.
Sants said that the FSA's handling of the affair was "not carried out to a standard that is acceptable".
Needless to say, the FSA has refused to apologise.
Michael Fallon, senior membecontain the word "sorry".
There were too few people regulating a very large bank and they didn't pay enough attention to liquidity issues."
Whatever the FSA claims that it is now doing to improve matters, these "improvements" will come to nothing if the current tripartite system (where no one is actually in charge, and therefore responsible) remains in place.
The Times reports that debt campaigners have seen many clients forced to borrow at extortionate interest rates, because they have had their credit cards cut off or have been refused loans.
The bank said the move was a "demonstration of confidence" after it was hit by "malicious rumours".
Following on from yesterday's meeting between Mervyn King (Governor of The Bank of England) and the CEO's of Britain's leading banks, the Bank of England said that it would continue to offer an extra £5BN of one-week money on top of its usual repo auctions every week until its policymakers decided whether to change lending rates at their next monthly meeting on April 9.
The trouble is that these warnings come after the damage is done. The Bank of England and FSA need to get their acts together and work in a pro active rather than reactive fashion.
Let us hope that they are able to knock some sense into him.
The BoE, UK government and ECB simply do not "get" this yet.
A tribute to all the analysts, financial commentators, self proclaimed financial "experts", traders and pump and dump operators who have scammed billions out of the naive, foolish and trusting (ie ordinary investors).
As predicted, the Federal Reserve cut rates yesterday. However, the rate cut of 0.75% was not as high as the 1% expected by many.
To some extent, the markets have reacted positively in the short term to this cut. However, it will need to be backed up by coordinated central bank and government action around the world if the markets are to be stabilised.
Regrettably the UK and ECB are still sitting on their hands, like rabbits caught in the headlights they are frozen in panic.
Consumer Price Inflation (CPI) rose to 2.5% in February, it was 2.2% in January, as a result of increases in energy bills.
In a rapid chain of events, following on from last week's announcement that Bear Stearns needed emergency funding from JPMorgan, it has been announced that JP Morgan has now bought Bear Stearns for $240M.
This represents a mere 6% of it market value.
The fact that this solution and deal was put together over the weekend, says much about the speed at which American financial institutions react to and resolve problems and crises.
The consequences of the UK government's, the FSA's and Bank of England's indecision and dithering over the Northern Rock debacle will be burdening the British taxpayers for years to come. Thousands of Northern Rock jobs will be lost, and the credibility of our financial system has been shattered.
Regrettably, as long as Brown (the man who created the tripartite system) is in charge, the lessons will not be learned and another Northern Rock will occur.
The City is bracing itself for a string of similar fund collapses.
The result of this carnage is that there is a flight away from financial products to commodities. Gold is leading the way, breaking through the $1000 an ounce barrier.
Yesterday's budget, presented by Alistair Darling, aside from being tedious and predictable betrayed the fact that Darling and tthe meltdown in the world's financial markets.
Stock markets across Europe and Asia are falling this morning as the dollar slumped to new lows, and fears grow that the US Federal Reserve's $280BN liquidity bailout will fail to stop a market meltdown and a US recession.
Several hedge funds with assets of more than $4BN are on the brink of collapse, or had halted withdrawals.
Meanwhile Darling tinkers with the tax on booze and fags, and worries about plastic bags.
The BBC has an easy to read summary Budget Highlights.
Ian Kerr, the chief executive of Egg, has resigned in the wake of the public relations disaster in which Egg was accused of unfairly withdrawing credit cards from thousands of responsible customers.
Egg, in an act of sheer folly, last month sent out a letter to 161,000 card users telling them that their agreements would be terminated in 35 days because they had a "higher than acceptable risk profile".
The reality being widely touted in the media and by experts was that Egg was dumping customers who paid off their debts on time, these were deemed to be unprofitable.
"I don't believe in pointing the finger...and I have not been seeking Ian Kerr's resignation. But I think it gives a clear warning to all banks and credit card lenders that they must be frank with customers.
The Financial Services Authority has passed the matter on to the Office of Fair Trading.
RICS say that more surveyors reported house prices falls in February, than any other time since June 1990. The RICS gauge of house price trends fell to minus 64.1% last month (in June 1990 it was minus 64.5%), in January 2008 it was minus 54.8%.
However, despite his claims, Sants also slips in the fact that some details will be held back to protect the legal rights of employees and to respect the confidentiality of competitor banks examined for purposes of comparison.
In effect the sub prime mortgage industry was nothing more than a pyramid (Ponzi) scam. In order for it to work the banks had to keep selling more mortgages in order to boost their commissions and to maintain their cash flow as other sub prime mortgages, sold earlier, began to default.
Provident Financial, is Britain's largest door step lender, it sells small loans door-to-door.
HSBC announced that they wrote off $11.7BN in bad loans last year, mainly from US sub prime defaults, and that this situation was still deteriorating.
The greed, arrogance and stupidity of the banks have brought about this mess. Regrettably the people who will suffer the most are the poor saps who had these loans foisted on them in the first place, and those who are more financially sound who now seek to borrow money, as the banks retrench from the loans market.
Needless to say, the senior management of the banks do not intend to allow themselves to suffer. Without any hint of irony, HSBC released details of a new executive reward scheme which will allow bonus awards of up to 400%.
The much maligned Financial Services Authority (FSA) has been given another rebuke today in a report, issued by the Commons Treasury Select Committee, that says that the FSA must develop a better plan for warning banks and investors of high risks.
The FSA and the Bank of England did warn many times that banks were lending too much and too easily. However, they did not match their words with actions.
The Committee found that those in charge of the banks did not understand the products sold. No surprises there, as it was not logic or rationality that was guiding the banks' policies and product designs, but greed.
As to whether anything effective will actually get done, on the basis of this report, remains to be seen. The fundamental failing of the current tripartite regulatory system, created by Gordon Brown ten years ago, is that no one is actually in charge of it.
Until Brown goes, that situation will not change, and the tripartite system will continue to be ineffective.

Now, of course, the world has changed. The financial system of the U.S. is effectively insolvent. Certain of the largest employers in the financial district, such as Merrill Lynch, no longer exist. Others, such as AIG, are struggling. Lower Manhattan faces an economic crisis more severe than that caused by the events of 9-11. The irony is that resilient small businesses in the financial district, including my own, were displaced for these “grand scheme” projects that were never really viable in the first place. So now we will create jobs, expand the tax base and support local charities in communities other than Lower Manhattan, leaving behind these half-completed construction projects. The Beekman Tower is not the only Lower Manhattan construction project that has run into trouble. AIG is attempting to arrange a sale-leaseback of two of its Lower Manhattan office buildings, an in a soft real estate market. Both the New York Times Corp. and Citigroup have arranged sale-leaseback transactions for certain of their properties. And the developer of the properties, is reported to be seeking a bailout from the New York Port Authority, which has cash flow problems of its own.

is that the same genetic mutation affects both senses.
The twins and the deaf young adults showed that hearing and touch go along with each other, seeming to rely on shared genes. The Usher syndrome patients let researchers go a step further and identify one specific gene that affects both senses. "Both senses require cells that convert tiny changes in mechanical force into an electrical signal," said senior author Gary Lewin. "Genes may code for proteins that play a similar role in this process in the two types of cells." In other words, if our cells use the same genes for hearing and touch, they may also share a set of molecular tools.
Even so, our sensory skills continue to surprise us. Our kindergarten teachers may not have been wrong, but our understanding of human senses is growing up.MiltonMilton VillagPriced Out: LA's Hidden Homeless," in the video player above.
While this happened in some areas of the country, elsewhere, the empty homes were an opportunity—most of all for Wall Street investors that swooped in to buy properties in bulk and rent them out at a profit.
Some cities make it harder than others to evict people. In Los Angeles, eviction is relatively easy—as Melinda and Michael Peffer found out when the home they had lived in was sold to an investment company and they were served with an eviction notice, despite having been, in their words, model tenants for 16 years.
In Sacramento, California, als—is the top private homeowner, according to a 2018 report from community groups. In East Palo Alto, California, nearly half the housing is owned by a single institution.
That's by design. When choosing neighborhoods to invest in, Invitation Homes seeks places with "h" including those that have "lower new supply [and] stronger job and household formation growth," according to its latest securities filing.
The Atlantic reported this month on two dozen families who say their corporate landlords charged exorbitant service fees on top of rent, did not answer calls, were slow to repair health-threatening conditions and pushed maintenance work on tenants. In Atlanta, large institutional tenants are 18 percentd study found in 2016.
"The SFR industry simply doesn't have the ability or the desire to unilaterally raise rents in a given market. Renthe amenities of the home, and the desirability of the neighborhood," the group said in a statement to CBS News.
The U.S. government was a key actor in turning Wall Street firms into large-scale landlords, according to housing activists. I—at a home builders' conference—that many of the foreclosed properties then on the market could be turned into rentals. That year the government started a pilot program to sell foreclosed homes by the thousands to private investors.
Meanwhile, another group of companies has turned to home-flipping, rather than renting, as a corporate strategy. Zillow last week announced it was entering the market of so-called iBuyers, companies that purchase houses for sale and turn around and sell them in short order. Zillow competitors Redfin, Opendoor and Offerpad already operate in this space.
Housing and community groups in California wrote to the federal government as far back as 2014, saying that the mass sales of properties were creating a new class of abusive landlords. "[This policy] amounts to market interventions that make investor predation a federally‐sponsored event," they wrote. But it wasn't until last year, the Atlantic reports, that the Federal Housing Finance Agency withdrew support from the single-family rental market, figuring the companies could stand on their own.
Slowly, cities are passing new laws to protect tenants in investor-owned housing. Late last year, Los Angeles County temporarily extended rent-control protections and forbade evicting tenants without cause. Oregon is on track to pass statewide rent controlions.
Activists say much more is needed. "This is the outcome we wanted," Noah Grynberg, a tenant lawyer in Los Angeles, said of the county's new protections. "It's not permanent; this is the first step." </s> Francois Rabelais: A bellyful is a bellyful.

In order to run and execute programs, you need to store the programs and related variables. Memory units like RAM, ROM and other types are used depending on the requirement. These memory units are divided into sub units with the help of memory addresses. We generally refer to these memory addresses in hexa decimal digits.
A simple memory representation is given below. When we create a variable, then specific memory locations are assigned to each variable.
For example, let us assume we want to save a number in memory. In languages like C we have a type called int that allows us two store whole numbers. When we create a variable of type int, a memory of 2 bytes will be allocated internally. We can assume that locations 0000 and 0001 are assigned to the variable. Pointers, which you will encounter more in various programming languages actually refers to the address of the first location of the variable. If we create a pointer for the variable, it refers to address 0000 and not 0001. The total size of the value in the pointer is inferred from the type of the pointer. You will know more about pointers in the dedicated chapters for pointers in various programming languages.

Review: Witches of The East End by Melissa de la Cruz
Purchased Online.
--Entertainment Weekly, Freya and Ingrid-- --The New York Times
Before I had even read anything by this author 'The Witches of East End' was being released. There were rave reviews everywhere about how good it was, but how you really need to understand how the world of Melissa de la Cruz works for it to make more sense. After reading just one 'Blue Bloods' novel I decided to give this book a try.
I was a little unsure of this book thanks to all of the references that they were using in other reviews and advertisements for it. I don't know how many times I had heard that it was like a mixture of 'The Witches of Eastwick' (movie) and 'Sex and The City' (show). This did not comfort me. I didn't really like either, and was glad to find that the book didn't really resemble THAT.
'The Witches of East End' follows the lives of three witches. Like the stories and the plays before it, there are three, they are related, And, they all resemble different aspects of the female life, at least at the beginning. As much as I like the idea of the three witches, rather than just one or two, I didn't appreciate that we had to follow the story of each one. I understand that at the end of the book nothing would have made sense without those other two stories, but out of the three Beauchamp women Ingrid was the only one I liked (at the beginning at least). Freya and Joanna both took a bit of warming up to. One thing I loved about this book was it's small town-ness. I loved the idea of a small coastal town that was hidden away, hard for tourists to find. I liked that everyone new everyone. I guess anyone can half win me over with a small-town setting...
I wasn't into the sex aspect of the book, I don't know if it's just me (I generally don't appreciate sex scenes in novels; I prefer everything to be behind doors that the author doesn't let me into), but it was one of those things that could have ruined the novel for me. I guess it was to be expected, because 'Blue Bloods' could be a little suggestive for a YA novel. The first part of the novel seemed to be all about the sex lives of some of the characters (including the mayor), but thankfully the novel is more about the actual story line as we get further into the story. This is also one of the reasons, I would have preferred for the story to be just about Ingrid.
The mythology of it all was very original. Like the vampires in 'Blue Bloods' books the witches are reborn again and again as different people, but they have memories of their past lives. The big mystery/problem in the novel and the mythology behind that too, was very well done. It was the sort of thing, where I couldn't actually guess what was going to happen next. The story-line was very enthralling. I wanted to know what was going on, I wanted to know, I wanted to know... And, I wasn't sure that I was going to find out everything before the book ended, but I did, And, I still got an interesting ending. Not exactly a cliff-hanger, but a new discovery, a new problem. And, guess what? I want to know, I want to know, I want to Know....
Overall, I think this book is definitely a 4.5/5 star book. If it wasn't for the sex, I'd probably give it 5 stars, but that's probably just me and my personal taste. If you like the 'Blue bloods' books or books about witches than I think you will enjoy this. Cike the sound of this, I might try out the earlier series first.
