Tangled Up in Blues
Written by The Descendant
Chapter 4: "The Moody Blues"
I decided to make a little side-trip and head to Manehattan to see Moody Blues.
"Little side-trip" here having the definition of "went days out of my way".
As I left the railhead at Omareha I wondered why our rail network only served small outlying communities on the frontier. Somepony could make a lot of money, I thought, by tying Equestria together with an intricate rail system.
Oh well, not my place, I'm just a bluespony.
I arrived back in Manehattan. At once I realized that I would never be able to live here again. Ponyville had spread my sensibilities, but Appleoosa had burst them wide open. The city felt constrained, suffocating. I felt trapped.
I spent a few days with my mother and father. The usual questions came forth, and my mother had an unfortunate moment of false hope when she asked about any mares in my life.
I told her about Seafoam and Cherry. She gathered her big blue son into her forelegs and rocked me back and forth. To my surprise my father took me for a walk with him through our old neighborhood.
I was once told that a father and son's relationship is complete the moment they can tell each other that they love one another. We reached that moment when he tells me about his life before he met my mother, adventures he had with my uncle Take Five and the like. It was the first time I'd heard such stories.
"I know you're hurting now," he concludes, "and that you don't feel like you've accomplished anything…but I've seen much change in you, son…you're wiser, stronger. No matter what you do, I'm proud of you. I love you, son."
"Love you too, dad."
Weird. Appreciated, but weird.
The next afternoon I gathered up my sax and headed to the Western District to meet up with Moody Blues. The second I saw his rowhouse I knew something was wrong. There were small foal toys on the stoop, and the windows were all open.
I carefully stepped over the toys as I climbed up the stairs, cautiously making my way up the stoop. I knocked on the door, begging, hoping against hope that the familiar old face would answer.
"Hey bro, whattzup?" answered a stallion, younger and smaller than me, eating out of a bag of Mairzy Dotes, the snack falling into his unkempt goatee.
"Who is it?" called a filly's voice from within.
"Some blue dude!" he called back, "Sorry bro, what can I do fer' you?"
"I'm…I'm sorry," I stammered, "I…I have a friend who, lives…well, lived, here apparently. You wouldn't happen to know if he's gone into a nursing home…or moved to Foalida?"
As I dared breathe these optimistic sentiments the filly appeared, and in her forelegs rested a tiny foal. He looked up to her, then back to me with apprehension.
"Oh, bro…sorry, bro…but, but we bought this place from the Public Housing Bureau after the city came and cleaned it out."
"The neighbors…smelled something…and the police came…"
My vision retreated, they now seemed a million miles away, as though I was having the conversation through a telescope. Sounds retreated, became muffled. I heard the beating of my own heart.
"Do, do you know what they did with his body, by any chance?" I asked through the fog in my head, feeling the pressure on the backs of my eyes, "Do you know anything…anything at all?"
"I am so sorry bro," he said, "I am so sorry."
I nodded. The little foal gurgled in its blanket. I couldn't see if it was a colt or filly, but I smiled.
"It's a good house," I said, "it has a wonderful stoop. You can watch the city just flow on by…just sit and listen and talk…"
They both nodded at me, reacting as my expression began to fall down.
"Sorry to have bothered you, have a good afternoon," I said, forcing a smile. With that I went down those stairs for the last time in my life.
I turned into the street, started walking. At once though there were hurried sounds behind me, and I turned back towards the house.
"He's headin' that way, babe!" called the stallion, his foal in his forelegs, pointing towards me.
At once the filly was out of the house, cantering towards me. I stopped and waited. She approached me with something held before her, and I took it into my hooves. It was a huge black book with hard covers.
"We…we just found it yesterday, behind the built-in bookshelf. It must have slid down there years ago, decades ago."
I opened it, and a lost world played out before me. It was a photo album, one of the old kind where the photos were held in place by little triangles and paste.
"We…we thought we'd sell it, or give it to the historical society…but, but perhaps you should have it…you're the only one who's come asking about him."
I looked back up to her and breathed a "Thank you". She smiled, and turned back towards her house, her family. As she did so I waved to the stallion, and he raised his hoof in reply, carefully balancing his foal.
I sat in the park overlooking the river, the exact same spot where nearly two and a half decades before I had laid my song about dead sea captains on the rocks.
I sat with my back against the famous tombstone of the "amiable colt", as I had in that moment when I thought I was in control of my destiny. He was still dead after all those years, but now I am older, and (if my father was right)…stronger and wiser.
It took a lot of that strength to work through Moody's album. I actually had to start in the middle and work back to the front, start from the first place I saw his mark, the saxophone and harmonica against a starfield, on a pony. To see him so young…not any older than me, perhaps younger, he seemed so alive.
I see him grow, and there's hoofwriting in places. It's not his, not the same as the writing on the label in my sax case. Was it his mothers? She's in here in places, but no older stallion.
I see Moody age in clippings from papers where he's playing in the band at parties. I see him and other ponies, other musicians, standing outside a club. They were clipping a ribbon to open it.
There are pictures with mares…some only in the album for two or three shots…others lasting through page after page…years of his life. In the end though none of them last to the final pages.
There are no foals, no birthday parties, no candid family photos, no wedding shots. I reach color photos, blurry with old developing processes at first, finally a clear and modern one, one shot with a group of older stallions, each with instrument in hoof, playing at some sort of funeral.
I am shocked at first, but soon I realized it's not a pony they're remembering, it's the club. Around them are smiling faces, each one rejoicing in the life of the club now ending, counting down until it closed its doors for the last time.
I turned to the last page. It was filled with loose photos of himself and others whose names I'll never know. Camping trips, vacations with friends, business cards for instrument dealers…even a receipt, one I realized that was for my own old saxophone that he had given me. I chuckled at the price. The rate of inflation since he had bought it had not been kind.
I dig through these until I came to the last page itself, and there I found a newspaper clipping. It was a street festival, one held only a few years ago. I remembered watching it from the stoop with him on a humid day as we ate watermelon and drank iced tea.
Why was it there, I wondered? He hadn't played the gig, he had been sitting with me. Looking deeper into the photo I scanned the street for clues. I realized from the angle of the shot that his rowhouse should have been visible. I followed the street to his stoop with my eyes, and there I realized why he had added it.
We, the two of us, are there on his stoop. He is standing, apparently getting ready to return to his home and flick on the porchlight, as was his custom.
I saw that his hoof was in my mane, rubbing my head as he had done that first time we met, as he had done every time we had parted since.
The last thing he had ever included in the album was a shot of the two of us. The last thing he had ever taken the time to properly glue into place with the little triangles, even as pictures of friends he had known for decades sat loose, was a picture of he and I.
I carefully laid the album on the pedestal of the monument to the "amiable colt", and stood to pace back and forth in front of the moment, trotting along on the path.
I reached for my saxophone, his gift given so freely, as the sun once more began to set, as Celestia sighed and let it go once more.
"Oh death, why are you so cruel, why now, why like this?" intoned the sax, "Why'd ya' take my friend before I could say goodbye?" asked my music.
Or at least it would have if I hadn't been breaking down. Instead it was making "bwargle" sounds, like the sound my old horn had made when the rainbow shook me to my core. "Bwargle" went my sax one last time before I removed it from my lips and began to bawl aloud.
As the river rolled beneath me I cried out in miserable tones, sucking in deep gulps of air to fuel my massive rocking sobs. I leaned against the grave of the "amiable colt", the tears soaking the ancient granite. I let them come, the cries, let that become Moody's tomb just as much as it was to the long-dead colt, made it sacred to both of their memories.
As my cries echoed down the river and into the harbor beyond the fireflies emerged and the lights of Manehattan cast their un-dimming glow across the waters far out into the dark sea beyond.
Ponyville hadn't changed. It was still half-timbered, sleepy, and happily populated by a mix of the three races.
I arrived very early that morning, so early that I met my former milkpony for the first time in months. He offered me a little bottle of chocolate milk and we briefly chatted about life, the living of life, and the moral implications of utilizing sentient beings for food production…and mares, mostly mares.
"Good luck, buddy, see ya' around" he said, wandering off. I realized as he left that he didn't call me "kid". Oh Dad, you're a smarter stallion than me.
I walked past the semi-permanent tents that the army uses to house regiments passing through on their way up to the front lines of The Wars. I had considered joining the military as a bugler once. I had actually gone down to where the recruiting office had been after my apartment had been devoured by the parasprites. When I saw that the place had been reduced to timbers and witnessed the recruiting officer sobbing with his face on his desk I took it as an omen.
Plus, I'm a huge coward who's allergic to spear wounds.
As I crossed through the snoring camp and past Rarity's Carousel Boutique I thought about what I was going to do this time, how I was going to not just stay alive, but prosper.
There was something out there waiting for me…I was going to wait right here in Ponyville, let the plan find me, wait for it. If Moody was right, then my "song" must be ready by now…and if my father was right, I was strong enough and wise enough now to try.
I was ready to make one more throw…to take a big risk and (once it revealed itself) work to make it happen.
"What we need is somepony who is willing to take a big risk and work to make it happen," said a young stallion, standing with two others outside of the old dance hall.
I stepped back to check the bushes and see if Princess Celestia was hiding within. The deus ex machina of my existence would be a lot more comforting if I knew that my apparently immortal and seemingly divine sovereign was, in fact, "deus-ing" them for me.
I walked forward into the group, but before I could even introduce myself one, to my utter surprise, shouted my name.
"Hey, Blues!" yelled one of the stallions, maybe just a couple years younger than me, cantering over to where I stood. I smiled at him and nodded, trying desperately to remember if I knew him or if he was just really good at implying names from cutie marks.
"It's me, Bluegrass…from Appleoosa!"
"Oh!" I cried, "Right! Sorry, didn't recognize you without your hat."
He, like I, had only just returned from Appleoosa, had decided on life in Ponyville.
"Appleoosa is changing too fast, growing too quick…doesn't have the same atmosphere," he complained.
"How terrible," I lied.
He introduced me to his friends. Lucky, who was just about my age, and One Short, who was about Bluegrass's age. His mark was three horseshoes. From that fact alone I knew that the kid was born to play the blues and that, fortunately, was the reason why they were standing outside the old structure.
They had pooled their resources, and were determined to rebuild the music hall and start it up as a club again. They had their own funds, gifts from their parents, and grants from the Royal Historic Structure Re-Use and Rehabilitation fund.
"We just need a few more bits, and we can close on the place and get started with the rehab…we're just that short," said Lucky, shaking his head, making a tiny circle in the grass of the paddock.
"Excuse me one second," I said. I trotted out of their view and looked up to distant Canterlot, perched as it was on the side of the mountain, and smiled.
I returned and flipped open my saxophone case. My accumulated bits dropped all over the paddock where we stood, the coins splaying out in a satisfyingly large pile.
"I'm in," I said, "You need a sax player too?"
They recovered from their shock to nod at me with wild enthusiasm.
We worked hard that late summer and early autumn. We scoured and scrapped, sawed and drilled, patched and painted. As we did so ponies came to watch, to ask us what we were doing, or how it was coming.
Impassioned amateurs that we were we did make mistakes. We stood together beaming with pride as we looked at the new doors we had just installed…only to realize in unison that we had put them in upside down. We all went scrambling for cover as our office drop ceiling dropped all the way to the floor.
"I think we should go with a skylight," said Bluegrass as the tiles that made up the mosaic on the ballroom ceiling came tinkling down around him like a rainstorm.
Outside Lucky and Short had begun to build the patio only to have it all get sucked and slurped down into a muddy morass as the pegasi unleashed a late-summer rainstorm. We went with grass.
But, we pressed on despite these setbacks, and as I watched the colts working and the old dance hall coming back to life I could not help but smile.
I looked up one day to see a familiar face looking into the wide open doors as we hung sheetrock. Lowering my mask I walked over, nodding as I went.
"Howdy, Davenport," I said, looking to my former landlord.
"I thought that was you, Blues! Good to see you back in Ponyville. Dang, you look older," he said. We had some small talk about life, the living of life, and the chronic shortage of quality sofas in the world…and mares, mostly mares.
"You know," he said, "I saved everything of yours that was in your old apartment."
I looked at the recently re-polished floor of my new club, trying to think of what I could possibly have left behind.
"They didn't last long…turned moldy and started to smell bad," he added. I smiled back at him, realizing that the only thing I had owned in that unhappy place was the contents of my icebox…the luncheon meats and the bottle of milk.
We stared at each other for a long minute. "Good to see ya', Blues. Dang, Chief, you sure look all grown-up."
He didn't call me "kid".
I thanked him for stopping in, asked him to stop in once we opened, and he agreed.
At night we slept where we fell down tired, we ate whatever we could gather from the Whitetail Woods and whatever their concerned parents would bring them. As we enjoyed one such bounty Short's mother spoke to me in a voice that, while not accusing, was loud enough for all to hear.
"I hope, Mr. Blues…"
"…that you are taking good care of these colts!"
I looked around to the assembly, the parents and the three others. Lucky got the joke, saw the look on my face, stifled his laughter. But the others, I realized, were simply waiting for an answer.
I was stronger, I was wiser. My song had come together, and even though my years were not even half of a decade greater than all of them combined I was the one they were depending on…the one they were looking to for strength.
Moody, you were the smartest pony I ever met.
As the dusk of autumn firmly arrived we finished off the apartments above the dance hall…our homes.
We spent the last of our discretionary funds on furniture, and as we moved the last of it in we all collapsed in my sitting room and convened the first official meeting of our Co-Ownership Trust Partnership, L.L.C., Incorporated. We desperately needed a name for the club.
"We desperately need a name," said Lucky, bringing about our first order of business, "for the club."
That we could have gotten this far and not have thought of such a thing was ridiculous. As the colts began rattling off standard names I settled back into my nice new chair, letting it learn the shape of my body.
As they went on and on suggesting and shooting down horrible, awful name after tedious, repugnant name I leaned farther back. As I did I thought about my path here…back here to Ponyville, to this amazing opportunity.
Of all things the old story about the sea came to my mind, the one about the dead sea captains. I smirked at it as the colts continued their deliberations. Here I was, guiding them through these treacherous waters, as though I'm that forlorn first officer…the one who takes command as they slip the body of the captain into the sea, as they weep and look for direction, as they mark the ship with the azure pigments and run up the cobalt banner.
But, I realized, I'm not in as bad a shape. I can guide the ship, I know now not to rock the boat…as my song has taught me, let the sun and moon guide me, let it play out, make my choices based on what the plan is that's unfolding…don't fight the currents. You were right Moody, I thought, the song guides me, even if I'm…
"Fly the blue flag," I laughed to myself, sitting back up. As I did so the faces of the colts all turned to me.
"Like Moody Blues' old place?" said Short.
"It's not copyrighted, and it's a traditional name for a club," added an enthusiastic Lucky.
I would have liked to have made a comment at that moment but, if I remembered the situation correctly, I was in the middle of hyperventilating.
"How do you all know who Moody Blues was?!" I pleaded.
"Was?!" they replied in unison, "You mean he's dead?!"
I might be wiser, if my father was correct, but I sure was ignorant.
In the space of minutes I got my education. Moody, it turned out, was a legendary bluespony. His place, The Blue Flag, had been the focal point of the blues scene in Manehattan, perhaps in Equestria, for generations. He was considered the progenitor of the rebirth of the blues in Manehattan, and he was essentially the foremost influence on many of the most successful rhythm, blues, bluegrass, country and rock artists of my lifetime and my parent's lifetime.
"I just thought he was a nice old pony who liked sax music and iced tea," I said, sliding back into my chair with a long slow whistle. My eyes sunk into my head at the realization of what I had just been told.
At any point in our relationship Moody could have rattled off a list of achievements, could have wowed me with name-dropping, could have trucked out award after award to dazzle me with. No. Instead he sat on his stoop and let a blue colt learn from his experience. He didn't want admirers; he didn't want to be "a legend". At the end of his days he had just wanted to pass it all along…and to have me as a friend.
I saw their eyes on me, looking to me as I wiped my hooves across my face. Slowly and certainly I told them all. I told them about my mentor, adviser, and friend. For the first time they saw the label on the inside of his case, my case, and I let them hold my first sax, his legendary sax. They passed it around as though they were holding a holy relic, they touched the label as though they had made a pilgrimage of thousands of miles to see it.
I take the photo album from my brand new coffee table shelf, and laid it before them. At once Lucky, Short, and Bluegrass were alive, pouring over it, examining it as though they were the first ponies to enter a long-forgotten tomb filled with wonders.
Soon they were calling to one another, "Is this Dusty Crossroads?" or "In Celestia's name, it's Low and Sweet, they were my idols!" To them Moody's album was more than just one pony's memories. It was like a holy text, the faces of bluesponies coming to life, pulled out of the darkness of death itself.
I watched them, a smile growing on my face, for more than an hour. Moody's album was coming to life again. The names had meaning again.
They stopped and were quiet. Bluegrass lifted a loose picture, the single big portrait of Moody with his last sax, the one with the little "M.B." beneath the neck screw.
They looked to the last picture in the album, of Moody and I on his stoop in the newspaper clipping. They then looked at me, and I saw something in their faces as they sat in the shafts of autumn light falling through the windows.
As a group they stood up, and left the room, taking the portrait with them.
"Hey!" I called in sudden alarm, standing and trotting along after them.
To my surprise Lucky stopped me at the top of the stairs leading down. He gathered me up in a hug. A hug!
"Blues, stay right here, okay?"
I nodded, and returned to my apartment. I went through my new rooms, I pranced up from my bedroom through my sitting room, to my kitchenette to my bathroom, I picked up small things in my den and put them back down again.
All the while the sounds of light construction vibrated up through the adjacent stairwell.
"Hey Blues!" I heard Short call, and at once I was cantering down the stairs.
As I did a series of lights passed around me, and I am made to look back up the stairwell I had just come down.
It had been a blank space an hour before, an overhang in the wall above the stairs. It cleared the fire code, but just barely, and everypony who went up the stair naturally ducked their head to avoid it.
Now, it was no longer blank. Instead it was alive with magical candlelight and lanterns that burned their purple and green flame. It was an altar, and in the middle of it, obvious to all who were present in the club, was the picture of Moody Blues from the album. It sat in a big golden frame on a background…
Beside it were some old concert posters and a frame filled with ticket stubs, Moody's name and image all over each of them.
They had chosen that spot on purpose, I realized.
We had been discussing about what to do with it, and as I had told them about Moody they had wordlessly decided that this was the best use of the space.
Every pony who went up those stairs ducked, needlessly or not, as they came to the overhang. Now, instead of simply protecting their heads, they were bowing…paying homage to the spirit of Moody Blues.
This was now more than a dance hall, more than a club…
…it was now his memorial.
I looked up into his eyes, immortalized as they were in the photo, and they reflected the candles. His eyes, looking to me over the neck of his saxophone, shimmered as they had done on the last day I saw him alive, as he had gone up those steps and inside his rowhouse, flicking on the porch light to see me safely on my way home.
I started to cry…yet again. Once more I had started to cry, and to my embarrassment they each gathered around me, the colts, embracing me in a group hug.
"I hereby make a motion to call the first meeting of The New Blue Flag Club Partnership, L.L.C. to a close," said Lucky as I wept.
"Seconded," called Short.
"Aye", added Bluegrass, and with that night settled in around the club.
That night I slept in my brand new bedroom, on a brand new bed, a fine one made of sturdy wood and a comfortable mattress. I had thought it would take me days to get used to the new room, to the new mattress, like it had during my long weeks of traveling, each flophouse bed being a new nightly torment.
Instead I dropped off to sleep within moments, Moody's old album clutched to my chest, and soon I was dreaming of being in that club…the original Blue Flag.
As I found my way to a seat in that dream the most beautiful mare I'd ever seen batted her eyelashes at me and I watched as a young Moody Blues burned the place down with his music…I watched him illuminate the world.

The High Park-Swansea neighbourhood is located on the shores of Lake Ontario. In fact, the lake is the southern boundary of the community. To the north, the boundary is Bloor Street. That’s actually the only street border of the neighbourhood; to the west, the boundary is the Humber River, and the eastern side of High-Park Swansea is the green space from which the community draws its name.
This neighbourhood has a rich history. In 1615, Etienne Brule was the first European to set foot in the area, encountering a First Nations tribe which already inhabited what is now known as High Park-Swansea. Grenadier Pond has given rise to legends about British troops stationed near there in 1812. Some people say the troops fished in the pond, while others tell a tale that a band of them lost their lives trying to cross it.
The first resident in the area was a Frenchman named Jean-Baptiste Rousseau. Rousseau left when other settlers established a sawmill. Over time, builders constructed homes, attracting new residents. A series of steel companies opened factories in the neighbourhood, giving those residents employment. After the steel factories closed, developers built condos on the land.
High Park-Swansea is a desirable area, and many people want to buy property here. If you’re interested in a condo located in a neighbourhood that gives you the benefits of living in a city while still being connected with nature, contact a real estate agent from the Propertia today.

Here are my top five picks for 2015, which are excerpts from my book, 3D Printing Will Rock the World:
Caress of the Gaze
As companies and customers use 3D printing to push the limits of customization, entirely new products will emerge. A great example is Behnaz Farahi’s 3D printed “Caress of the Gaze” garment, which looks like a mash-up between a soft porcupine and Van Gogh’s “Starry Night,” turned into a short, woman’s poncho. Farahi, a designer and PhD candidate at the University of California, embedded motion sensing cameras that cause the garment to react to onlookers, altering its form and undulating in response to precisely where and how intensely the watcher is watching (see it in action here). Imagine the black eyes that may result!
Bioprinting skin, bones, and joints
Bioprinters are a specialized form of 3D printer used to print tissue and organs. Much like desktop inkjet printers jet ink, these machines jet living cells, along with support material called scaffolding. So many companies and academic institutions are developing bioprinters that it is hard to keep up, but notable developers include these Japanese researchers who are bioprinting skin, bones, and joints. Andrew Wheeler, “Japanese Researchers Pursue Next Gen Bio-3D Printer for Skin, Bones, and Joints,” 3D Printing Industry News, January 22, 2015, http://3dprintingindustry.com/2015/01/22/japanese-researchers-bio-3d-printer
A Boston-based start-up called Voxel8 took the first commercial step toward building 3D printers that create fully functional products, such as its first product, a quadcopter. Voxel8’s machine used Material Extrusion to print the body of the drone with a polymer while simultaneously printing the internal circuitry with conductive silver ink. The machine paused at preprogrammed points during the build process to allow the operator to insert electronic components, such as the motors. When the printing was finished, the ‘copter flew out of the printer. The company’s founder, Jennifer Lewis, believes Voxel8’s machines will be able to make fully functional devices, without human intervention, within a few years. Michael Molitch-Hou, “CEO Jennifer Lewis on the Future of Electronics 3D Printing and Voxel8’s Huge $12M Funding,” 3D Printing Industry News, July 24, 2015, http://3dprintingindustry.com/2015/07/24/voxel8-ceo-jennifer-lewis-on-how-12m-in-funding-will-fuel-the-future-of-electronics-3D printing
The ESA & Airbus Test Fire 3D Printed Spacecraft Parts
The poster children for 3D printing today are the aerospace, automotive, and health-care industries. The companies using 3D printing for aerospace are among the largest and most influential in the world, and they are using 3D printing to streamline manufacturing and reduce costs. The European Space Agency and Airbus successfully test-fired a 3D printed spacecraft engine combustion chamber and thruster nozzle. During the thirty-two-minute test, the parts withstood a temperature of 1,253 degrees Celsius (2,287 degrees Fahrenheit). Michael Molitch-Hou, “3D Printing Under the Fire: Platinum Thruster Part Seems Space-Ready,” 3D Printing Industry News, June 17, 2015, http://3dprintingindustry.com/2015/06/17/3D printing-under-the-fire-platinum-thruster-part-seems-space-ready/
John Hornick’s “3D Printing Will Rock the World” Rocks
Of course the fifth of my five top stories for 2015 is “John Hornick’s ‘3D Printing Will Rock the World’ Rocks”, for obvious reasons.

The coffee plant was first discovered in Ethiopia in the 11th century, when people began brewing its leaves for medicinal purposes. Fast forward to today, and coffee has become the panacea that almost everyone reaches out for whenever they need to have their fix or if they need to pull out an all-nighter.
The popularity of coffee is such that it has become the second most traded commodity on earth, next to oil. Here are six reasons why coffee has become the world’s go-to beverage:
1. Coffee wakes you up.
Coffee stimulates brain activity, which is why it makes you feel more awake than normal. Even the simple act of inhaling the scent of freshly roasted beans can reduce the effects of sleep deprivation.
Once caffeine enters the body, it interacts with the adenosine receptors in the brain, which is the body part responsible for nudging you towards sleep. The caffeine is then mistaken as adenosine by the brain.
Because the brain does not detect the adenosine, you become more awake and less sensitive to your body signalling you to sleep and rest.
2. Coffee keeps you warm.
Once temperatures begin to drop, a steaming cup of coffee will certainly go a long way in keeping you warm. Once caffeine enters the body, it stimulates blood flow, making you feel warmer from head to toe.
3. Coffee gives an energy boost.
Coffee is a known pick-me-up that can help boost your energy when you’re feeling a little down. Caffeine is the most frequently consumed psychoactive substance in the world today, meaning it can have a profound effect on your mental processes.
It also increases the activity of your brain cells, which results to the increased amount of epinephrine in the body. Epinephrine is the “fight-or-flight” hormone that makes you feel more stimulated than usual, giving you the quick boost you need to get through a sleepy morning or a midday slump.
4. Coffee improves your focus.
Studies have found that caffeine – when taken in moderate amounts – increases both selective and sustained attention. The drink allows you to increase your focus and attention for an extended period of time.
5. Coffee brings people together.
There’s no doubt about it. Coffee is a great social drink because it loosens you up and helps you relax, allowing you to enjoy the company of other people. Getting together with friends and colleagues over coffee breaks is the perfect opportunity for you to break through social barriers and enjoy free-flowing conversations with the people you frequently interact with.
6. Coffee makes you happy.
According to several studies, coffee drinkers have a decreased risk for depression compared to non-coffee drinkers. This is because the antioxidants contained within the beverage help make you feel better about yourself.
Why Use Coffee to Advertise Your Business
Because of its many benefits, a lot of people find coffee addictive and have made the beverage a permanent fixture in their lives. Even if they are away from their Chemex or French press, people will still find a way to have their fill of coffee, wherever they are.
Your business can capitalize on this love of coffee through the use of coffee cup advertising. By having your business logo, name, or tag line printed on takeaway coffee cups and distributing them to as many people as possible, the recipients will become familiar with your brand and what you have to offer.
By using personalised coffee cups in your corporate events and product launches, you allow consumers to associate your business with the happy and relaxing feelings they associate with a great cup of coffee.

COMPANY - KL. / Chemical Engineer NTUA, Administrator
Our company has so far constructed and operates 4 photovoltaic power plants in the prefectures of Attica and Boeotia.

Industry analyst NanoMarkets has published a new report claiming that revenues in the building-integrated photovoltaics (BIPV) product market will surpass US$11 billion by 2016. In addition to this fivefold increase in revenue, the paper, titled “Building Integrated Photovoltaics Markets, 2011” states that capacity within the sector will also rise from 343MW to 3.6GW during the same time period.
NanoMarkets also argues that the next five years will witness a maturing of the BIPV industry, with a move towards second generation BIPV products. These offerings will allow for even easier integration with buildings and see revenues rise accordingly; BIPV glass will generate over US$6.4 billion (versus US$1.17 billion in 2011), tiles and floating panels’ income will rise to US$3 billion (from US$691 million) and flexible products will increase to around US$1.9 billion (from US$153 million).
It also looks likely that while crystalline silicon (c-si) will continue to command a significant share of the market for the coming decade, with several CIGS-based products moving into traditional distribution channels, thin-film photovoltaic (TFPV) manufacturers also have reason to be excited by the projected growth in BIPV. Amorphous silicon (a-si) revenues will exceed US$1 billion in 2014 with CIGS and cadmium telluride following suit in 2015 and 2017 respectively.

(still available as of Fall 2016; candidates currently being interviewed)
Due to a lot of musical tasks we have wanted to do, but not have the time for, which is a result of growing performance demands and new students, we are looking for an assistant to help us out with music related tasks, some directly involving the studio, and others related to performances, though there are some jobs that need to be done VERY soon, including categorizing/tagging approximately 450 of Meri's musical blog posts from over 7 years and home cleaning. We had one several ago (she graduated in May 2014 in music education at the University of Toronto), and very much appreciated the help, but could use one again. There is no financial compensation; however, you will be granted lessons at no cost to the student or parents.
Some of the tasks will include posting flyers in designated places, dropping off the lesson postcards in our neighbourhood, turning pages for Derrick when he’s playing the piano for our performances and the student performances, mailing our posters to churches and schools, and cleaning up after student concerts, updating the studio blog, categorizing and tagging for related topics on Meri's music blog, making small website edits, changes, and updates, organizing the sheet music and CD collections, plus other duties.

Abstract for: Passive aggressiveness: the story of unfulfilled love and suppressed anger
Emotional abuse is very common both in families and in work environment everywhere around the globe. Passive aggressive behavior is toxic and is among the most severe emotional abuse forms. It has many faces and impressive arsenal of manipulation tools. Passive aggression is invisible and the visible part of it is usually misinterpreted by the observers and victims. The reason lies deeply in the structure of the system that is rooted in the childhood. Deeply hidden shame for not being ideal and perfect makes these people practice hidden dominance. The endless circle that is driven by the hope to receive unconditional love and recreate familiar experience from their childhood. Suppressed anger driven by the shame and low self-esteem meets with the low self-esteem determined by the guilt. The model was designed to help those who are trapped in a cycle of passive aggression. As the simulation shows, there is no easy way out. The way out is long and painful but it is worth to take it, and let the self-competence and ability to self-regulate be the beacon for those who decide to take this long and exhausting way to find self and better life.

Casual dating to serious relationship
Casual relationships sometimes include mutual support, affection and enjoyment, which underpin other forms of loving relationship. They are "Eros" lovers who are passionate lovers and "Ludas" or "Ludic" lovers, which are game-playing lovers.
This allows the less dependent partner to be able to fix and maintain the relationship the way he/she wants it to be.
They also find it very hard to picture a relationship getting serious.
Many casual relationships establish guidelines or a set of rules.
Based on the exchange theory, Hughes witnessed an individual dependency on either partner as the exchange of resources, knowledge, rewards, and costs of items, becomes more and more prominent.
Any partner that is not fully dependent upon the other typically controls the casual relationship.When you’re getting ready to talk to your guy about where the relationship is headed, you’re likely to imagine all the directions the conversation could go. Don’t go into the conversation blind, hoping he’ll lead the way.

taining a secret understanding with the Byzantine court, and Boethius stood up boldly in his defence, declaring that if Albinus was guilty, so was he and the whole senate with him. Thus involved in the same charge, he was sentenced to death by the cowardly assembly whose cause he had represented. He was thrown into prison at Pavia, and executed in 525.
The most famous work of Boethius, his Consolation of Philosophy, was written in prison. It was much read in the Middle Ages, and translated into every possible language. The book is thrown partly into the form of a dialogue, in which the interlocutors are the author, and PhilosOpfiia, who appears to him to console him. As in the Menippean satura (see satura), the narrative is relieved by the occasional insertion of musical verses in various metres. The consolatory arguments are strictly philosophical.
Boethius was at great pains to make Greek learning accessible to his contemporaries, by means of translations of, and commentaries upon, Greek books on philosophy, mathematics, rhetoric, and grammar. For this the following ages were much indebted to him. His writings, which were used as manuals throughout the Middle Ages, were the main storehouse of secular knowledge during that period. This is eminently true of his numerous philosophical works, and especially of his translations of Aristotle, which exercised immense influence upon the scholastic philosophy.
B5na D6a (" the good goddess ")• An Italian deity, supposed to preside over the earth, and all the blessings which spring from it. She was also the patron goddess i of chastity and fruitfulness in women. The names Fauna, Maia, and Ops, were originally no more than varying appellations given by the priests to the Bona Dca. She is represented in works of art with a sceptre in her left hand, a wreath of vine leaves on her head, and a jar of wine at her side. Near her image was a consecrated serpent; indeed a number of tame serpents were kept in her temple, which was situated in Rome on the slope of the Aventine. All kinds of '. healing plants were preserved in her sane- j tuary. She was regarded in Rome as an austere virgin goddess, whose temple men were forbidden to enter. She belonged, accordingly, to the circle of deities who were worshipped by the Vestal Virgins. The anniversary of the foundation of her j temple was held on the 1st of May, when
prayers were offered up to her for the averting of earthquakes. Besides this, a secret festival was held to her on behalf of the public welfare, in the house of the officiating consul or praetor of the city, by matrons and the Vestal Virgins, on the night of May 3-4. The mistress of the j house presided. No man was allowed to be present at this celebration, or even to hear the name of the goddess. After offering a sacrifice of sucking pigs, the women performed a dance, accompanied by stringed and wind instruments. Under the Empire the festival degenerated into a mystic performance of extravagant character.
Bonorura emptlo. The technical term in Roman jurisprudence for the seizure of " i. If a ma
man sentenced to pay a certain sum did not perform his obligation within thirty days, the creditor obtained permission from the praetor to attach his goods. After a renewed respite of thirty days the sale followed by auction to the highest bidder, the intending purchaser bidding for the whole property, with its assets and liabilities. The former proprietor might intervene and promise payment at any time before the fall of the hammer. The property once knocked down to him, the buyer became the absolute owner. A person against whom these proceedings were taken incurred infamia.
Books and Book-trade. The Greeks were early familiar with the practice of multiplying copies of books by transcription, either to private order or for public sale. As far back as the 5th century b.c. the Athenians had a special place in their market-place for selling books, and it is clearly established that a regular book-fair existed at Athens by about 300 b.c. In Rome, towards the end of the republican age, the business of copying books and the book-trade in general developed on a large scale, and it became a fashionable thing to possess a library. The book-trade, in the proper sense of the term, owes its existence to Atticus, the well-known friend of Cicero. He kept a number of slaves skilled in shorthand and calligraphy (librarii), whom he set to copy a number of Cicero's writings, which he then disposed of at a considerable profit in Italy and Greece. His example was soon followed, especially as the interest in new literary productions, and the love of reading, greatly increased after the time of Augustus.
To facilitate the appearance of a great number of copies at the same time, the

Black men constitute 61 percent of homicide victims in Louisiana — nearly 13,000 black men were killed in this state since the Supreme Court reinstated the death penalty in 1976. Yet only three people have been executed for killing a black man in all of this time. That’s less than 6 percent of the rate of executions for individuals who kill someone other than a black man, and 1/48th of the execution rate for people who kill white women, according to a study that will appear in the Loyola University of New Orleans Journal of Public Interest Law.
The study, by Frank Baumgartner and Tim Lyman, reveals stark racial disparities in death sentences and executions. Though African Americans make up 72 percent of murder victims in Louisiana, people who kill black men or women constitute only 33 percent of those sentenced to death and only 21 percent of those who are actually executed. White people, by contrast, make up 26 percent of victims but their killers make up 79 percent of people who are executed.
Though this study focused on data from Louisiana, other studies confirm that its findings stretch well beyond this one state. A study of the death penalty in Texas, for example, found that “defendants are six times more likely to receive a death sentence if they kill the highest status victims (whites or Hispanics who have college degrees, are married, and have no criminal record), compared to those defendants who kill the lowest status victims (black or Asian victims who were single, with a prior criminal record, and no college degree).” Another examination of national statistics found that “only 10 whites have been executed in the modern era for the crime of killing a black male, with six additional cases where a black male was one of multiple victims, including victims of other races or genders.”

text: HAIL OF BULLETS — the Dutch death metal band featuring GOREFEST drummer Ed Warby, THANATOS guitarists Stephan Gebédi and Paul Baayens, former PESTILENCE/ASPHYX singer Martin Van Drunen and former HOUWITSER bass player Theo van Eekelen — has set "On Divine Winds" as the title of its second full-length album, due in North America on October 12 via Metal Blade Records (one day earlier internationally). The group recorded 11 songs plus an intro for the CD, which, like its predecessor, was produced by Ed Warby was mixed by Swedish producer/multi-instrumentalist Dan Swanö (EDGE OF SANITY, BLOODBATH, NIGHTINGALE). The limited-edition version of the album will be made available as a digibook, including a bonus DVD.Comments Warby: "I don't think I've ever worked this hard on anything in my entire life, but it sure has paid off! "Although 'Of Frost And War' is a tough act to follow, my ringing ears tell me we've succeeded in besting it on every level: songs, playing, production… "At the moment Dan Swanö is putting the final touches on a mix that could squash a tank, and then it's off to the pressing plant! "All the main ingredients of our blood 'n' guts style death metal have remained intact and I honestly can't imagine anyone that liked our previous work is going to be the least bit disappointed, on the contrary!" HAIL OF BULLETS' "Warsaw Rising" EP was released on July 17, 2009 (in Europe) via Metal Blade Records. Featuring two brand new tracks, one cover and three live recordings, it was made available as a six-page digipack and in a strictly limited edition of 2,000 copies only! "Warsaw Rising" contained the new songs "Liberators" (an ode to one of the most magnificent bombers ever built) and the title track (which tells the tragic tale of the bloody 1944 Warsaw uprising). A "massive" cover of the TWISTED SISTER classic "Destroyer" and three tracks from the BULLETS' earth-shattering performance at the 2008 Party.San Open Air festival were also included. "…Of Frost And War", the debut album from HAIL OF BULLETS, was released in Europe in May 2008 via Metal Blade Records. The CD was recorded in February/March of 2008 at Excess Studios in Rotterdam, Holland and was mixed and mastered in Sweden by Dan Swanö. HAIL OF BULLETS was formed in late 2006 through a mutual love for old-school death metal bands like AUTOPSY, BOLT THROWER, MASSACRE, CELTIC FROST and DEATH. In the summer of 2007, the band entered a Rotterdam studio to record a four-song promotional CD, which was also mixed by Swanö.

Eighty-five new species of wasp are among more than 350 new species identified in 2022 by the Natural History Museum, and scientists say there are many more to come.
By combing through its collections, as well as sending scientists on research trips, curators and researchers have managed to describe a total of 351 new species.
The largest group of new discoveries was the wasp, including some miniature creatures with what scientists describe as “beautiful, feather-like wings”.
The tiny parasitic wasps from the family Megaphragma are some of the smallest insects in the world, but researchers found they may be important for agriculture. The insects parasitise the eggs of thrips, a type of insect that can cause crop damage, and as such the wasps may be important biological control agents.
Dr Gavin Broad is the principal curator in charge of insects at the museum and an expert in Hymenoptera, the group that contains wasps. He said: “It’s no surprise that new wasp species came out on top, it’s just a surprise that wasps don’t come top every year.
“The abundance of parasitoid wasps makes the order Hymenoptera the most species-rich order of insects, but its is way behind some other groups in terms of actual species descriptions. Watch out for lots more wasps next year.”
Scientists also named 84 species of beetle, 34 species of moths, 23 species of moss animals (also known as bryozoans) and 13 species of trematode worms. There were also 12 new species of protists, seven species of flies, two bumblebees from Asia, two polychaete worms from the depths of the oceans and a centipede with a number of segments that has never been seen by scientists before.
Other notable discoveries this year include 19 new species of stick insect, which all hailed from the tropics of Australia. Scientists used genetic analysis to tell them all apart.
Some vertebrates were discovered, too, including a new species of gecko from Seychelles, three species of fish and seven species of frogs.
Six of these frog species are tiny, and are among the smallest known vertebrates. They were discovered in Mexico, and grow to just eight millimetres in length. It is not yet known why they evolved to be so small.
Though many of the species described by scientists have been known for some time by the local people who live alongside them, the Natural History Museum said it is important to give them official names so they can be monitored and protected from the impacts of climate breakdown.
With more species lost every year, it is a race against time to name them all before they go extinct so they can be saved, the scientists said.
Researchers described a total of 11 new species of algae this year, both fossil and living, while four new species of plants were described from across southern Asia.
Dr Sandra Knapp from the Natural History Museum was involved with the description of these new plant species.
She said: “Although flowering plants are relatively well known as far as groups of organisms go, it is estimated that even though we have given about 450,000 species scientific names, there are about 25% of that left to describe. Not to discover – for sure, these things we don’t know about are known by local and Indigenous peoples where they occur – we taxonomists just give them names that put them into the language of global botany.
“Most plants have a variety of names, some specific to an area or language group, others more widespread, but the scientific names we coin can be used by anyone anywhere. This means there is a common language, one of the things we really need to help bend the curve for biodiversity. After all, if we can’t talk about a species, how can we wish to save it?”
The Wildlife Trusts also made some significant marine life discoveries this year, including a new species of coral found at depths up to 2,000m in the Rockall Trench, about 240 miles off Scotland’s west coast, a 100-year-old Greenland shark washed up at Newlyn, Cornwall, and new records of sea slugs.
The Manx Wildlife Trust saw the first ever swordfish recorded off the Isle of Man, Leicester and Rutland Wildlife Trust unearthed the fossilised remains of Britain’s largest ichthyosaur, a prehistoric “sea dragon”, and Albie, the only known albatross in the northern hemisphere, returned to Bempton cliffs in Yorkshire.
The charity said this life is under threat from pressures including the global avian flu pandemic which has killed thousands of seabirds across the UK, to pollution including oil spills and plastic, as well as people irresponsibly disturbing wildlife.


The utility sector plays a critical role in the life of customers for the simple reason that it is responsible for the most essential aspects of our modern life and eventually our existence. But no sector can claim to be as slow in responding to the changing landscape, especially technology, as much as utility. This is probably because economically, it has never been challenging, the players were few, and the entry barriers were high. Most of the organizations had a monopoly or proprietary attitude toward the customers. To say the least, the competition was never powerful enough for them to radically change or invest in cutting-edge technology.
Technology in this sector primarily remained a support role and can be categorized in two primary phases. The first phase revolved around creating reports, basic analytics, and complying with regulatory requirements. The next phase was one of productivity and efficiency, where the focus was on operational processes. The current ask and environment however is completely different and aims to push them towards more of “customer experience” oriented technology enablement rather than support.
The reasons for this are threefold: the rise of the connected ecosystem, massive scale, and the emergence of two-fold competition (new companies as well as sources of energy in some). It is no longer about production efficiency alone and organizations have realized that they can achieve final goals partially. However, when you combine it with the connected ecosystem, the real impact could be realized. Multiply it with the scale and you have a revenue stream and eventually, by adding an element of creativity to those insights, you can stay ahead of the competition.
Traditionally, utility sector had the best consumption patterns for any consumer but they utilized that data for one primary engagement only; billing and reporting. However, as we see most of our systems go smart and connected with sensors, gateways and this intelligence not only limits itself to B2B but eventually B2C with smart homes, devices, and cities. Utility companies now have a significant opportunity in their hands to do much more with the large volume of data flowing into their systems.
On the one hand, they have the smart metering and supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) technology and on the other, data generated from the connected consumer ecosystem. The exponential increase in data inflow presents a significant opportunity for real-time or near-real-time consumer insights and intelligence enabling smart business decisions.
Utility companies can look forward to three major types of data for correlation; the smart metering data, the social media (unstructured), and the geospatial data. A combination of these three can provide insights into unprecedented patterns and consumer behaviors that open up new operational efficiencies, more effective predictive maintenance cycles, and even new revenue streams (through insights shared with other industries). In all likelihood, the results may be seen in the areas of more personalized services, higher customer satisfaction ratios, efficiency in service operations, maintaining the quality of service, and better demand management.
Big Data is already making an impact in the utility sector. Whether it’s about taking a decision about checking the viability of operations in a certain region or site through the intersection of geospatial data and consumer behavior or whether it is about monitoring and managing an oil or water well/pipeline for efficiencies or simply using metering data to analyze fraud-prone individuals or organizations or to proactively map such behaviors, Big Data is making it all possible.
As alternative forms of energy start to take over, the traditional companies will have only two options, either become more efficient and customer-centric or ride the alternative energy wave or, in some cases, both. However, this can’t be done on the back of service quality issues, inefficient customer engagement processes or poor supply chain models.
According to studies, Big Data can help streamline costs by up to 20% in the short term and up to 35% in the long term if implemented properly. This not only gives utility companies a chance to be smart and efficient in their customer engagement but also provide enough ammunition to pay for next-gen initiatives as well as new revenue streams. According to other studies, every two-point increase in efficiency leads to about six times more effective demand management.
All this can be made possible on the back of new technology and architectures. Big Data would prove useful in two ways for utility companies. The edge part of big data analytics that is nearer to the customer can result in two fold incentives of better customer engagement, more personalized services and at the same time, would equip the utility company’s field force to better manage the data collection, analysis, fraud prevention, and other aspects. The centralized Big Data analytics, on the other hand, can support larger decision-making processes such as which region to invest, how to increase profitability, or look at new streams of revenue; for instance, partnering with another consumer company to provide insights at a price. Some other examples could be leasing their infrastructure to other players (like fiber for smart grid) or starting an IT arm to lease their efficiently developed in-house code (for example, field management application) or supporting similar organizations in areas where they don’t want to invest themselves. The big data intelligence could be utilized for energy trading, a single view of a particular consumer household or simply a better asset management structure that can lead to more revenues.
The million dollar question is why and what is required to make this happen on a large scale and why it has not been executed till now? Well, the reasons can be attributed from regulatory to (high costs) economic to as simple as the OT (operational technology) and IT (information technology) being two siloed components in the utility sector that rarely work in collaboration. However, with the advent of big data centric technologies, the utility companies for the first time are at an advantage to utilize the IoT and operational system data in collaboration. All this needs to be built on the back of a robust data management and analytics strategy, one that has both long-term and short-term benefits. Data can be generated in silos but can’t and should not be used in siloes.
This would need Big Data to be an executive sponsor-level project and not remain only at the department or BU level initiatives. The ROI needs to be seen on the back of company decisions and not only the operational efficiencies. This would include a 360-degree view of the customer as well as the company’s own systems, assets, processes, and people (including managing skills through insourcing or outsourcing strategies).
The rise of big data and AI are providing excellent opportunities to utility sector to find alternative uses of their data, create new value propositions and take better decisions via pro-active rather than reactive actions. They now have a perfect opportunity to find higher utility in their data — it’s just a matter of time before unlocking the huge potential that lies unexplored.

Been a while since I did anything around here. Time to change that!
Hopefully I'm going to get started on the 2013 Newgrounds Christmas Art Worm to get myself back into the art community (which I haven't really been a part of since 2007), then I will stick around to get a few projects out. Need to get out of this artistic slump I have been in. I might even try to get into a few of the other collabs going around here.
I also have a plan to start a NG based comic (or something like that), but I will wait on the details of that since what I am planning may not actually work.
We will see.

It appears President Trump is zeroing in on a choice for next Federal Reserve chair.
Two sources told CNN on Saturday that Trump will likely name Jerome Powell to lead the central bank.
Powell, a Republican, has been a governor on the Fed’s board since 2012, and he was assigned to lead the bank’s Wall Street oversight committee back in April.
Trump has yet to make a formal decision, but the White House said he’d announce his choice next week. He could still change his mind, the sources said.
His apparent lean toward Powell is a major development. For weeks there has been speculation about whether Trump would renominate current Fed chair Janet Yellen to another four-year term.
Yellen was nominated by President Obama in 2013, and her current term expires in February 2018.
