At the beginning of the third part of Seveneves Neal Stephenson describes how the protagonist Kath Two travels from the Earth's surface into the orbit with the aid of a Skyhook-named system. The route between the earth's surface and the skyhook is laid back using a glider, which can reach without any drive only by clever exploitation of thermals up to about 100 to 200 km altitude. My question now would be, is it possible to ascend to such a height using a sail glider?
From my memory of the book there's no actual altitude listed, but the suggestion was that the glider had to reach very high. The current glider altitude record is just over 50,000ft:
The highest altitude obtained in an unpowered aircraft is 15,460 m (50,720 ft) on 30 August 2006 by Steve Fossett (pilot) and Einar Enevoldson (co-pilot) in their high performance research glider
So I would say that currently it is not possible for a glider to reach the kind of altitudes the book alluded to. Seveneyes described a society with much more advanced technology than we have now, the glider itself had the ability to morph its shape considerably, it's hard to say how high a glider like that could get. This is science fiction after all.
Project Perlan 2 aims to fly a glider up to 90 000 feet. 100 000 feet (30km) also appears possible, but more expensive — presumably due to complex composite construction to reduce weight.
Soaring that high requires specific atmospheric conditions, a standing mountain wave and the right wind conditions to prevent that wave being blocked in the troposphere. As the book is set in the future with advanced materials, presumably the glider could be a lot lighter so you could go a bit higher and maybe have a wider range of conditions in which you could get to altitude.
However the required conditions are somewhat rare, so it might not be practical for skyhook(s) as they wouldn't often align with the right weather.


T4W Blowout Gun cleaning gun
Use the PIK Air Blow Out Gun on the interior or exterior of the vehicle. The strong, tornado-like funnel of air blasts out dirt and dust quickly and easily. The PIK Air Blow Out Gun has the same cone shape as the PIK Car Cleaning Gun and PIK Air Foamer. The cone channels air into a powerful tornado-like motion that quickly lifts dirt and moisture from any surface.
The PIK Air Blow Out Gun speeds up detailing! The strong gust of air blows debris out in the open where you can vacuum it up. It blasts water out of crevices. It dries up the engine quickly. The PIK Air Blow Out Gun is a time-saving tool for all detailers. The PIK Air Blow Out Gun works with an air compressor operating between 60 and 90 psi. Depress the trigger to release a powerful gust of air. Because the PIK Air Blow Out Gun is designed to blow debris out of tight spaces, it is recommended that you wear appropriate eye and ear protection to avoid contact with loose debris.
To clean the PIK Air Blow Out Gun, place the nozzle in a bucket of soapy water and depress the trigger once or twice to remove dirt from cone.

Hundreds of new jobs expected for Broughton as Airbus confirms A320 production ramp up
Airbus has confirmed plans to increase the A320 production rate to 75 a month from 2025 bringing a boost to Broughton’s wing making plant.
The ramp-up will create between 450 and 550 highly skilled manufacturing roles and invest an additional £100 million in additional production facilities by 2025.
The former A380 production facility at the Broughton West Factory will become a new single aisle production facility.
The current monthly rate of around 50 A320’s a month will initially increase to 65 jets a month by the middle of 2023.
An Airbus spokesperson said: “The planned production rate increase to 75 A320 Family aircraft per month in 2025, in close cooperation with our suppliers and partners, will benefit the entire global industrial value-chain.”
“Airbus will meet the higher production rates by investing to increase capacity at its existing commercial aircraft assembly sites, including in the UK, resulting in the creation of additional highly-skilled jobs and employment opportunities.”
“This is fantastic news for the area,” said Alyn and Deeside MP Mark Tami.
He said: “It’s been a difficult period for the Broughton site, so this announcement could not be more welcome.”
“I’m delighted that so many quality jobs are being created, as we certainly have a wealth of highly skilled workers in Flintshire.”
“This investment also gives stability to the current workforce and to the many local companies involved in the supply chain.”
Welsh Government Economy Minister, Vaughan Gething said: “Today’s announcement is fantastic news for Wales.
“Airbus’ plans to increase wing production on Deeside will see a significant growth in the skilled workforce, alongside a huge investment from the company.”
“This is a real vote of confidence in Wales and the talented workforce at Broughton.”
“Airbus’ plans mean more made-in-Wales wings will fly on the very latest Airbus aircraft across the globe, sending a clear signal that Wales is a nation with a superb reputation for advanced manufacturing – which is only made possible thanks to our world class workforce.”
“The Welsh Government will continue to work closely with Airbus to ensure we have the pipeline of skilled talent the company needs in order to grow its workforce in the years ahead.”
Fantastic news that Airbus are further investing in Broughton in North Wales, bringing high-quality jobs, boosting growth and driving the Welsh economy forward. https://t.co/C2C3DidNgl
— Boris Johnson (@BorisJohnson) May 5, 2022
Airbus has forecast for at least 720 jets deliveries this year, even as the war in Ukraine and Covid lockdowns in China make building and operating aircraft more challenging.
“Our 2022 guidance is unchanged, even though the risk profile for the rest of the year has become more challenging due to the complex geopolitical and economic environment,” said Guillaume Faury, Airbus Chief Executive Officer.
“Looking beyond 2022, we see continuing strong growth in commercial aircraft demand driven by the A320 Family.”
“As a result we are now working with our industry partners to increase A320 Family production rates further to 75 aircraft a month in 2025. This ramp-up will benefit the aerospace industry’s global value chain.”
Last month workers at Airbus Broughton accepted an improved pay offer bringing a long-running dispute to a close.
Members of Unite had voted for industrial action in February but suspended planned strikes to consider an improved offer by Airbus.
The offer accepted by the workforce consists of an 8.6 per cent pay increase over 13 months in addition to a backdated 5.1 per cent lump sum payment. Workers will also have an additional day’s holiday in 2023 and in 2024. Spotted something? Got a story? Send a Facebook Message | A direct message on Twitter | Email: firstname.lastname@example.org

These were popped in some leftover kimchee brining liquid i had used for red radishes and watermelon rinds previously.
I know I have the urge to kimchee almost everything I see (just as long as I don't kimchee anyone's grandmother I think we're ok), but who wouldn't? Spicy fermented pickling is just too desirable a method to let any produce slip by.
I'm not entirely 100% thrilled with the flavor on it's own. But it is unique and might be a nice and surprising unknown in a salad or any dish for that matter.

Made from banana peels, star anise and cinnamon simmered in water for one hour.
Takes on a great roasted flavor and can either be applied to savory or sweet.
Not sure which path to choose first...

She rock and rolls through life in a dusty
fuel-efficient car through prairie grass,
cows, wheat, corn, sunflowers.
The naive turtle laughs at prairie tornados
that rock and roll her world.
The doo-wop of her life filled with violin lightning
and piano thunder, now replaced by staccato
of withered leaves that now crush underfoot
scatter in bitter winds.
Her world much older now, yet she feels the same.
Rocking must be more than just a chair.
Care and giver, once two words never used together
drag her into the blue end – cold and deep.
Unable to whirl in the country winds that bound from field
to field, she can’t find sunflowers for all the blue
she struggles to surface
In her newfound wisdom as a tortoise
she carries them on her back to shelter them.
She plods along the dusty gravel roads in her tiny car
does what she can, not what she wants.
Give her violins, pianos, give her rock and roll
give her doo-wop, let her rock around prairie tornadoes
instead of rocking in a chair
because there isn’t much time left
for sunflowers, thunder or lightning.

Thursday of this past week I followed my neighbour into the elevator. This woman is always chic! You should see her beautiful woolen suits in winter and stunning coats. And even when she is headed for a day in the summer sun, she looks better than I do when I go to work! So when I was enveloped by a fragrant cloud of roses and patchouli and oakmoss I had to ask her. “Are you wearing Aromatics Elixir Perfumer’s Reserve?” She responded, “No. Paloma Picasso.” First, I thought DAMN! I should have known that. Then I thought, WOW!
I have a bottle of Paloma Picasso in my magic closet and although I never wrote about it officially, I feel that I know it quite well as I have worn it several times. I always thought it was a bit “too much”… that it wore me. I knew it was a masterpiece… but I just couldn’t commit.
I’ll write a more complete review of Paloma Picasso in 2012 because this post doesn’t do it justice. One thing I know, however, is that I’ll never forget the sheer burst of beauty that hit me on December 16th. It changed the rest of my day and I’m going to pull my bottle out from the back of my closet for the holidays.
And so… Christmas is around the corner and although we’ve all seen A Charlie Brown Christmas a million times, the main message is more pertinent than ever.
Enjoy! I’ll be back after Christmas with a perfume review.


The Bangkok Post:
Democrat Party leader Abhisit Vejjajiva’s election campaign will focus on educating the public about why the Pheu Thai Party-led government’s rice-pledging scheme has failed.
The Democrats believe the campaign will lead to a better understanding about policy-oriented corruption. It will push for reform of ways to curb corruption in the public sector.
Mr Abhisit will begin a tour in the Central region this week. A growing number of rice farmers are coming out to pressure the caretaker government to pay them for the paddy pledged under the rice scheme.
The Democrat Party will take the rice-pledging scheme as a model to push for reform of corruption prevention mechanisms, Democrat spokesman Chavanond Intarakomalyasut said yesterday.
BP: An election campaign? Haven’t Abhisit and the Democrats boycotted the election? Perhaps, if they hadn’t, they could make their points about the failures of the rice pledging scheme particularly in terms of liquidity and moving money around to pay farmers in an actual election campaign. It seems the Bangkok Post is a little confused as given the Democrats are boycotting, why have a campaign? You can’t actually advocate what you would replace the scheme with unless you are actually trying to be in government….

Professor Emeritus Joseph P. Van Der Meulen, MD, former USC vice president for health affairs, died April 6 after a long battle with Parkinson disease. He was 86.
Van Der Meulen was recruited to the Keck School of Medicine of USC in 1971 as chair of the Department of Neurology and chief neurologist at Los Angeles County + USC Medical Center. As chair, he worked closely with the Departments of Neurosurgery and Radiology to promote neuroscience alongside clinical neurology. According to many colleagues, he was committed to building teams to bring the best of science to the patient’s bedside.
“His compassion and acumen as a neurologist, his integrity and respect for all persons, and his vision and grace as a senior statesman inspired all who crossed his path,” said Helena Chui, MD, chair of the Department of Neurology at the Keck School.
A Boston native, Van Der Meulen received his medical degree cum laude from Boston University and served his internship in internal medicine at Bellevue Hospital in New York. He received his neurology training at the Harvard Neurological Unit of Boston City Hospital. He subsequently spent two years in Stockholm, Sweden, at the Karolinska Nobel Institute for Neurophysiology with Ragnar Granit, a Nobel laureate.
Van Der Meulen then served as an associate in neurology at Harvard University and as an associate professor of neurology and biomedical engineering at Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland. Van Der Meulen also served as a neurologist at the Navy Hospital at Camp Pendleton, where he also was assigned to pediatrics.
From 1977 until his retirement in 2008, Van Der Meulen served as vice president for health affairs for USC. While in this role he also served as dean of the medical school twice, 1985-86 and as interim dean from 1996-97. For almost 30 years, he acted as the university’s lead liaison to the County of Los Angeles on LAC+USC, leading contract negotiations on an annual basis.
“Dr. Van Der Meulen was a gifted scientist, clinician and leader who made enormous contributions to USC,” said Rohit Varma, MD, MPH, interim dean of the Keck School. “His tireless work to make the Keck School and USC flourish and thrive will have an impact on generations of medical students, graduate students, residents, fellows, staff and faculty. We are truly grateful to have had such a giant in our field lead us.”
Part of Van Der Meulen’s legacy at the Keck School is the Joseph P. Van Der Meulen Symposium for Clinical Neuroscience. Now in its 23rd year, the May 7 symposium will highlight advances in research and treatment for multiple sclerosis. The Joseph P. Van Der Meulen Chair of Neurology, which resulted from a generous gift from the Pasarow family, is a tribute to Van Der Meulen’s dedication to clinical research and patient care.
“Added to his accomplishments, leadership and vision for the enterprise, was an elegance in dealing with other professionals that can serve as a model for us all,” said Steven Giannotta, MD, chair of the Department of Neurological Surgery at the Keck School.
Van Der Meulen is survived by his wife Ann, three daughters and sons-in-law, and 11 grandchildren.

In this two-day course for complete beginners, we will take a deep dive into the 500-year-old craft of bobbin lace, covering not only the technique but also looking at the history, identification, and contemporary practice of lace. We will start by building skills through making a sampler of the basic stitches used in bobbin lace, while comparing regional variations and styles. From there we will learn to combine stitches into traditional Torchon lace patterns in fine thread. By looking closely at lace from the ground up, students will leave with a solid foundation for advancement in this complex art form.
Materials will be billed separately by weight.

A thrill-seeker had a roller coaster adventure he'll remember for a long time after a pigeon flew into his neck halfway during his ride.
According to Viral Videos Club, the dude decided to challenge himself at PortAventura Park in Spain by taking the 'Red Force' ride that apparently launches riders to from 0 to 180km/h in just five seconds.
A video of the roller coaster ride showed the man having the time of his life before a rather huge pigeon inadvertently flew into his neck.
As one would expect, the man was shocked by what happened and frantically brushed the bird away.
However, he recovered fairly quickly thereafter.
The man told his friend what happened, then continued on with the ride looking rather unaffected.
There was blood on his face after the incident but he did not seem to be in pain, which probably meant that the bird did not fly away from the collision alive.
See what happened in the video below.

Israel setzt wohl nun auch Aerosol- Bomben, auch Vacuum-Bomb oder Thermobaric Bomb genannt, ein.
Mario Zippermayr (25 April 1899 – 13 January 1979) was an Austrian physicist and Nazi. He is considered the inventor of the aerosol or vacuum bomb.
Probably starting from 1942, he began setting up a research institute with about 35 employees in Vienna and Lofer (Salzburg).
Coal dust was launched in a grenade, and dispersed by an explosive charge. The subsequent very large explosion was to achieve a high effectiveness. In 1943 the first test with a 60 kilogram thermobaric bomb was carried out. There were more tests on the military training area Doeberitz in Berlin and at Lake Starnberg. The best results were obtained with 60% liquid oxygen and 40% coal dust. The destruction radius in Döberitz was reportedly 600 meters, and 4 to 4.5 kilometres for the improved 25 to 50-kilogram bomb over Lake Starnberg. At the end of the war preparations were under way for the production of larger bombs with liquid oxygen in Nordhausen.
A thermobaric weapon, also called an aerosol bomb, or a vacuum bomb, is a type of explosive munitions that work by dispersing an aerosol cloud of gas, liquid or powdered explosive. Thermobaric weapons are almost 100% fuel and as a result are significantly more energetic than conventional explosives of equal weight. The fuel is often elemental. Many types of thermobaric weapons can be fitted to hand-held launchers, and can also be launched from airplanes.
International law does not prohibit the use of thermobaric munitions, fuel-air explosive devices, or vacuum bombs against military targets. Their use against civilian populations or infrastructure may be banned by the United Nations (UN) Convention on Certain Conventional Weapons (CCW), specifically the Protocol on Incendiary Weapons.
As of November 2022, all past attempts to regulate or restrict thermobaric weapons have failed.
In diesen beiden Berichten werden russische thermobarische Systeme beschrieben, wobei auch der Westen, solche Bomben hat, und Israel dahingehend technologisch im Westen als führend gilt.

I meant to post about this yesterday, but forgot. :<
Picking my top tracks from this album was even more difficult than last week’s album in part because this feels like it was meant to be listened to back to back, that each song builds on the one before and lays ground for the next song.
That said, I eventually settled on these three.
- Senseless Words
- Endless Walk
- Don’t Forget
With an honorable mention to “So Scared” for setting the tone of the album.
This is “officially” labelled Pop Punk, but in my experience, if you liked commonly known “emo” bands like My Chemical Romance, Fall Out Boy, and Panic! At The Disco, you might like this.

Robert Pattinson and Mystery Woman: Actor 'Flirting' With Blonde at Nightclub
By Simi John | October 11, 2012 7:10 PM EST
Recently, after sources claimed that Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart are officially a couple again, the Remember Me actor seems to be taking his time enjoying the single life.
The duo were involved in a bitter and public spat, when the 22-year-old Stewart was caught cheating on Pattinson with Rupert Sanders, a British director.
However, some new low-resolution images reportedly taken at the Electric Room in Manhattan show Pattinson "cozying up" to a mystery blonde. Insiders at the venue have reportedly claimed that Pattinson was with the woman for hours, at one point putting his arm around her.
"He had his arm slung around her at one point and they chatted for most of the night. They looked like they were having a great time and the girl was making him laugh a lot," an insider said. "There was about five of them but it looked like Robert only had eyes for the girl. They sat really close to each other on the couch."
The onlooker said that the gestures between the two were innocent and friendly. "He stayed at Electric Room late," one insider told US Weekly." (He was chatting to her) in a friendly way, nothing more. He kept to himself mostly. Rob was in his own world with his friends. He also looked scared of the world. He seemed a bit timid."
"He was hanging out with some friends," another witness said. "(He) was chatting with a table of people drinking beers . . . there were girls and guys there."
Despite reports of reconciliation between Pattinson and Stewart, the two will work separately to promote the final instalment of Twilight movie Breaking Dawn - Part 2, visiting Australia and Japan respectively. Their Twilight co-star Taylor Lautner is expected to go to Brazil at the same time. Earlier, Stewart was spotted at the Florence + The Machine concert in Los Angeles, along with her father.
Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part 2 is directed by Bill Condon and the series is based on the best-selling novels of Stephenie Meyer. The worldwide release is on 16 November.

John Litzler (formerly of River North Dance Chicago) and Cody Szarko (formerly of Visceral Dance Chicago) premiere this new work commissioned by MamLuft&Co. Dance. Litzler has also performed with Sia at Coachella, and Szarko can be seen in the Celtic Thunder: Storm movie. The dancers have performed in works by such artists at Trey McIntyre, Ohad Naharin, and Sidra Bell, and they bring their visceral contemporary style to ML&Co. “Mind Cloud” addresses surrendering to the ability of free thinking.
“Rise,” by guest artist Leslie Dworkin, is a kind of pilgrimage: a journey that moves through a landscape of density, toward a state of clarity and balance, reflecting the relationships that form, support, and splinter along the way. The quartet employs Dworkin’s meticulous attention to movement detail and unique musical sensibility, and reflects the tension between two poles: our human reality, and a desired state of grace.

Set to a post-modern orchestral score, “No. 3” features a visual symphony of movement. Dancers sweep, soar, and sculpt in this captivating work performed to string instruments.

Mix your spring onions with olive oil salt and pepper and grill (or grill pan) over medium high heat until charred, about 5 minutes. Set aside.
In a blender add everything for the romesco sauce except the olive oil. Blend until combined, then slowly drizzle in the olive oil while the blender is running until the sauce is a rich and creamy texture. Can be refrigerated for up to a week.
Slice avocado in half and remove pit. Peel off the skin. Slice the half very thinly. Set aside and cover with 1 tsp lemon juice to stop oxidization. Repeat with the rest of the avocados.
Drizzle olive oil over bread and toast on grill for two minutes a side until nice grill marks are achieved.
To assemble spread a generous portion of romesco sauce over bread. Top with avocado and grilled onions. Dust with some paprika and an extra drizzle of olive oil.

Chinese rulers of past dynasties had the unusual custom of collecting urine from their teenage subjects and after drying and processing it consumed the purified substance. What they found was that they felt and looked younger. What they did not know was that this purified substance contained hormones like testosterone and DHEA.
For many the thought of using a substance from someone else’s urine is repulsive. Yet Premarin a female hormonal medicine has been taken by hundreds of thousands of women and it is made from pregnant mare urine.
The search for the fountain of youth continues today. Recently, a new study just published found there is another way to feel younger – plasma from young people. Earlier research found that injecting old mice with plasma- the liquid part of blood- from young mice can reinvigorate the brain and muscles. To find out if plasma from young people might have the same benefits scientists took blood from 18-year-olds and injected them into 12 month old mice. At this age, the equivalent of around age 50 for people, the middle-aged mice ran around like young mice. Their memories improved, as they were much better at remembering the route around a maze .
The conclusion of the scientists was that blood from young people must have something in it that’s important for keeping them young. They have pinpointed some factors but are keeping it a secret for now.

This weeks travel blogging tips article features one of my favourite travel bloggers: Amanda Williams, author of travel blog A Dangerous Business.
Amanda and I share a passion for New Zealand, and she has already provided me with a wonderfully comprehensive post on what to do when in the land of the long white cloud, a post which proved to be immensely valuable to me when I came out here.
Today Amanda shares her thoughts on what it takes to start a successful travel blog, taken from the lessons she has learnt over the last year of building her own site, including thoughts on advertising, traffic stats, and the things she wish she had done earlier. Enjoy the read.
Tell us a little bit about Amanda and your site: A Dangerous Business.
Well, I’m a 24-year-old journalist from Ohio, and I currently work at a small newspaper as an editor. I’ve been fascinated by the world “out there” ever since I was in gradeschool and rushing home to watch “Where in the World is Carmen Sandiego” every afternoon. In high school, I knew I wanted to travel far and wide, and I visited a total of 7 countries during college, including studying abroad for 5 months in New Zealand.
While I was in NZ, I kept a personal blog to keep my friends and family up to date on my daily life. I posted photos, wrote about my impressions of my new home, and described all my adventures in detail. Once I returned home and got hired into my current job, I got a bit bored and longed for a taste of travel again. So I decided to start a travel blog.
The name comes from a J.R.R. Tolkien quote that goes like this: “It’s a dangerous business, going out your door. You step onto the road, and, if you don’t keep your feet, there’s no telling where you might get swept off to.” It’s one of my favourite quotes, and I think it can be applied to travel.
Why did you start writing a travel blog?
Like I said above, I started my very first travel blog while I was studying abroad in New Zealand, as a way to keep family and friends in the loop. I feel like many people start blogs for this reason.
But, after I got back and entered into the “real world,” I missed having that element of travel and the opportunity to write in my everyday life. So I started a travel blog in order to force myself to put some of my stories and experiences down on paper.
I started it mainly just for myself, and never expected it to take off like it has.
How do you define success in terms of your travel blog?
How does anyone define travel blogging success? Money? Free trips? Getting mentioned in a big publication? I’m kind of fuzzy on it all. Sure, it’s nice to make a few bucks off my site, but none of these things are what I set out to do when I started my blog. I just wanted to write, and to have a place to put all my stories and photos.
Success for me is more about being proud of my content, and having others recognize that it’s good. Retweets on Twitter and comments on my posts go a much longer way in my mind than page views and advertising dollars.
What aspirations do you have for your travel blog?
Honestly? I have no idea. Sure, I’d love for it to turn into my full-time job. I’d love to become location-independent and make enough money off my blog to be able to live and travel off of. But, in reality, I’m not sure if that will happen.
I don’t have aspirations to be a wandering nomad like a lot of other bloggers. I want to travel, yes. But I also want to get married and settle down eventually, too.
Right now, my aspirations are to continue putting out quality content; to keep improving my stats; to make a bit of money; and to inspire others to get out there and see the world.
How important do you think site design and technical know-how are for a travel blog?
I think choosing a good, clean, easily-navigable design is extremely important for a travel blog. You want to encourage people to visit and use your site, not confuse them and drive them away. But that doesn’t necessarily mean you need to be a design wiz. I’m currently using a free theme, and hired the lovely Jenny Leonard to whip up my custom header for me.
I don’t necessarily think technical know-how is a must, but it definitely helps. I only know very, very basic html. When I run into technical issues, I usually go running to Twitter asking for help if I can’t find answers on Google. Luckily, there are a ton of helpful bloggers out there (like Chris from Aussie Nomad, for example) who are almost always willing to lend a tech-savvy hand.
Do you follow any metrics in terms of traffic analysis / site ranking, and how important do you think these are?
I’d be lying if I said I didn’t pay attention to my stats. Currently, I have WordPress stats and Google Analytics running. I usually take a glance at my WP stats whenever I log in to my admin panel, and take a look at my Google Analytics maybe once a week. I also check on my Alexa ranking from time to time.
I’m not obsessed over my stats, but I still think it’s important (for me) to know where I stand. Based on page views, it’s easy to see what sort of content does well, and what tends to flop with my readers.
What would be your number one tip for increasing site traffic?
I think what I’ve found to be hugely important is being active on various forms of social media. You can be putting out great content, but if nobody knows about it, it’ll show in your traffic.
Of course, this won’t be true for everyone, especially those running blogs that are already hugely popular. But for relatively newer bloggers like myself, I think interacting with people on Twitter, Facebook, and other blogs is so, so important.
The more present you are, the more other people will start to take notice.
What have you found to be the hardest thing about running a travel blog, and how do you overcome this?
But the hardest thing for me, I think, is the time commitment. Since I’m one of the newer kids on the block, I know I have to put extra time into everything that I do. I spend time each day constructing new posts, promoting myself and interacting with others on Twitter and Facebook, and reading a bunch of other blogs. I also have a full-time job, so it’s often really tough to actually find any “me time.”
I try to strive for at least some balance, and I often take mini breaks from everything on the weekends, when traffic is generally lower anyway. I don’t want to get burnt out, or start to resent the time I put into my blog. I think the best way to avoid that is to know when to take a break.
What sort of time commitment do you put in to your travel blog on a weekly basis?
A whole lot! I’ve never actually kept track of the hours, but some weeks it ends up feeling like a second job – albeit a job I enjoy much, much more than my “real” one!
I’m different than some other bloggers in that I post fresh content nearly every day. This means I really have to keep on top of things, and sometimes put in some extra time.
If there was one thing you wish you could have known before you started writing your blog, what would it have been?
I wish I would have been aware of the wider travel blogging community when I started off. I wish I had known how great Twitter is, and how to actually use it to enhance my blogging. And I wish I would have switched over to a self-hosted site a lot sooner!
What have you found to be the best way to go about generating an income from your blog?
I only actually started accepting advertising in late November, so I’m pretty new to the whole thing. I was absolutely clueless at first when it came to things like prices and the like. But I’d say I’m definitely having some mild success with generating a bit of extra income each month from my blog. It’s by no means enough to live on, but it’s definitely helping to bolster my travel fund!
My biggest tip would be: If you have questions, find someone to ask! When I first started out, I contacted some fellow bloggers who I knew had experience working with advertisers, and asked them a bunch of things. They were super helpful, and gave a lot of great advice that I’m still using.
Also, reading posts and participating on the forums at Travel Blog Challenge has been a great source of info, too.
How do you go about promoting your travel blog?
I mostly promote on Twitter and Facebook, but I also dabble in StumbleUpon every now and then. And, of course, simply commenting on other blogs is a great way to both interact with other bloggers, and to promote yourself at the same time.
If you have questions or problems with your site, where do you go to find answers?
Usually, I turn to Google first. Often, my problems are common or easy to fix, and I can usually work them out on my own. If I can’t, then I take my questions to Twitter, and hope that some tech-savvy soul takes pity on me and offers to help me out.
Travel blogging is becoming more and more popular. How do you differentiate yourself in such a crowded market?
Well, it certainly isn’t easy. It’s a lot of work, and sometimes even putting the work in doesn’t necessarily mean that you’ll see success. I think it all comes down to a combination of personality, finding your voice, providing quality content, and making sure you are seen and heard.
I feel like people only follow the content of a blog to a certain extent. They’re much more likely to stick around if they connect with your writing style and enjoy your personality. You can blog about amazing places and topics, but if you’re dead boring, people probably aren’t going to read.
And finally, what key advice would you give to people running, or thinking about setting up, their own travel blog?
I would tell them to start early, and start out blogging for themselves. This helps with that “finding your voice” part, because if you’re only blogging for yourself, you don’t feel as much pressure to be or say or do anything for someone else’s benefit.
And, of course, don’t give up! Blogging of any sort can get frustrating. I get flustered at least once a week. But the key is to keep at it as long as you’re enjoying it.
As always, tremendous thanks to Amanda for taking the time to answer my questions. You can find out more about her travels on her website: A Dangerous Business, plus you can find her on both twitter and facebook.

As part of the curriculum the children at Second Level learn about people and agencies that they can go to and seek support from. We had a special visitor today who worked with all of the P5-P7 classes. John works for Childline but in his previous life, he was a policeman.
To start the day, John told us about the role of childline and how we can get in contact with them. Children (and adults) often have worries and these can build up if we don’t talk to someone about them. What is a worry for one person may not be a worry for someone else.
He also introduced us to Buddy, the Childline mascot. John then went into each of the second level classes and worked with the children on different scenarios so they could discuss the differences between needs and wants.
John was very impressed by the behaviour and mature responses that he got from the children and also the knowledge that was shared.

Months after a lousy start made him leave Crystal Palace, Ian Holloway is reportedly joining the Eagles’ rival as manager of Millwall.
In what could make for a thrilling South London derby one day, the 50-year-old is tasked with bringing the Lions out of the Championship’s 21st position and into relevance for the first time since a 2004 FA Cup Final loss found them in Europe.
Holloway guided both Blackpool and Palace back to the top flight, but this job will require a relegation scrap at the bottom of the Championship and comes on the heels of a shocking FA Cup defeat to League Two’s Southend United that saw Millwall go down to 10-men and lose 4-1.
They have a mere draw from their last five Championship fixtures, which feature decisive losses to Watford, Leicester City and Middlesbrough.
Say what you will, but Ollie embraces a challenge. Do you back him to save Millwall?

I launched this first day of September a week or so ago with a morning trek along a path that was brand new to me. It was beautiful and breezy and serene.
I talked to God, and then I stilled myself to listen, even as my feet kept moving.
Subtly, yet clearly, the answers I sought came.
Then I saw it – that juncture in the road where the paved pathway met gravel – leading to uncultured, unknown territory and to a bend in the road around which I could not see.
I advanced a few feet, then retreated, deciding to explore more fully on another day.
For in that moment, I had all I needed – fresh air, exercise, a lush green setting and a visual reminder that at every turn, I am loved, worthy and deserving of joy.
And guess what? So are you.
That walk reminded me that even when we’re on the right path, we’ll encounter some pebbles, stones, rough patches and dirt. We won’t always know the end before we begin or even when we’re mid-journey. Yet, that’s why it’s so important to enjoy and treasure each step of the journey itself, for all the worth each phase brings.
In the right season, at the appointed time, we will discover the beauty behind those bends and truly value the extra effort it required to get there.
Wherever we are on the path, we can trust God’s goodness despite what the world or our circumstances show, and lean into the truths of how He has already blessed us. Think about your past 90 days and count the ways.
I’m convinced that our trek into the final months of 2019 are gonna be better than good – paved roads, gravelly paths, wood trails and all. Are you ready? I’ve got my walking/running shoes on and I am. 👟🕶💪🏾

When I pause and reflect on my journey, I’m often amazed at how God fits together my life’s puzzle pieces in the just-right way to connect my part of His universal design to someone else’s puzzle:
- The brief but powerful encounter I had with a stranger last Tuesday, all because my girlfriends and I just “so happened” to reschedule our dinner date for the 3rd time and randomly choose “that” restaurant
- The reconnection with a longtime acquaintance at a stage I can guide her through, because I’ve already successfully navigated it and it’s time to pay forward the support I once received
- The mentors coming into my babies’ lives at just the right time and in just the right way to help them grow and thrive in independence while reminding me of the power of the village
- The emails from readers about how the words I penned anywhere from last week to 15 years ago have somehow changed their lives for the better, at just the moment they needed the laughter or encouragement or understanding that great love is grace-filled love.
I could go on and on, and I’m sure as I shared my examples, a few well-timed miracles of your own came to mind.
Today, I give thanks for the opportunity to be a blessing while receiving blessings in ways that are simple, profound and often in between.
You matter and I matter, and our puzzle pieces are divinely designed to interconnect with others’ during seasons and in ways that we may never fully understand.
Just keep doing you, being you and loving you, and trust God’s timing. Our masterpieces are in the making, and it’s a bonus when we choose to find hope and joy in that process.

I own two Kate Spade purses. A dear friend gifted them to me a few years ago as a “no special reason – I just wanted to” present. So whenever I’ve carried them, she has always filled my mind with loving thoughts.
Now when I use those handbags, I’ll also remember that Kate Spade was a real person, in need of help. I’ll remember to continue looking past people’s automatic smiles to make sure their eyes are smiling, too. If the light seems to be missing, I’ll offer a hand, listening ear, the truth in love, a therapist or counselor’s contact info, or a shoulder to cry on.
Let those around you know that your shoulders, hands, heart and lack of judgment are available, also. We all need safe spaces to land every now and then.
My thoughts are with all who are struggling with emotional or mental health challenges. There’s nothing wrong with seeking help; in fact, it requires a certain strength.
Do it today. Many, many of us are cheering for you.

Sometimes our dreams are so big that we tiptoe to the edge of them, then shrink away.
But what if we had the courage to actually follow where they lead?
To consider how leaning into them and falling forward allows the wind to buoy us and keep us afloat?
To trust the lessons we’ll learn, the people we’ll form bonds with and the experiences that will shape us as our divine birthright?
What if we loved ourselves- and those in our care – enough to surrender to this way of being?
Wow…just wow. Wouldn’t our lives be a wonder?
It’s true: Growth requires change. This is how…
Seeds become flowers;
Caterpillars become butterflies;
Irritants in oysters become pearls.
So why can’t we – once babes in arms – grow into purpose-driven world changers?
With intention, discipline and greater expectations, we can, and so can the children we’ve been given the opportunity to steward.
Let go of your fears and grow.
Where to start? Right here, right now.
How to start? With every simple or significant opportunity that comes your way.
Try one new thing today and see how it feels. Say yes to something you’d normally avoid. Consider embracing hard truths rather than running away from feedback, even if it stings.
Listen more and learn from others.
Get comfortable with silence so you can both hear yourself think and give your heart the space to respond. Consider another person’s perspective and why their view matters.
When you can’t literally stand in another person’s shoes, do your best to find other ways to empathize. What if it were your sister, brother, mother, father, son or daughter, best friend or spouse facing what this other person faces? Would you care enough to help, be an ally or be an upstander?
Shed unsuitable labels that those around you have given you. Beginning today, define or redefine for yourself who you are, who you are going to be and why your life matters.
Dust off the dreams you once held dear, but perhaps gave up pursuing. If necessary, give yourself permission to dream new dreams.
Accept that age truly is just a number. Celebrate the wisdom that has come with maturity, yet remain young at heart and as optimistic as the bright-eyed youth who sees a goal and declares it a birthright.
If Vera Wang could become a fashion designer at 40, Samuel Jackson could achieve stardom at age 46, Laura Ingalls Wilder could write her first book at 65, and Etta Baker could record her first blues record at 78, what can’t you do?
Make up your mind and fix your resolve to do it afraid, if necessary. (You get to determine what “it” is, and you may have more than one.)
Implement positive and productive practices that become positive and productive habits. Tell yourself to keep going when it gets hard. Push through and pat yourself on the back.
Cry if you must, then regroup. Get back up each time you wobble, fall or fail. Practice makes perfect, and important lessons are often learned through trial and error.
Know that what you’re you’re sacrificing now is worth what you’ll eventually gain.
Someday you’ll look back with gratitude at the seed covering, caterpillar shell and irritated oyster bed you outgrew.

Research shows that most people dislike change so much that they’d rather stay in unfulfilling, stagnant or unstable circumstances rather than risk the unknown or stretch past what feels safe. It’s human nature, it seems, to “go with what you know.”
Over the course of my personal and professional journey, however, I’ve become convinced that the different or the uncomfortable (or even the heartbreaking) can sometimes be a sacred path to purpose.
For it is on this fresh course and in unfamiliar territory that we learn more about ourselves, discover strengths we might not have otherwise realized, and connect with ideas, skills and relationships that are meant to play pivotal roles in our destiny.
Yet, if we’re not open to change, or avoid accepting its unexpected arrival, how will we ever know our other (possibly wiser, stronger, happier) selves?
This is my sentiment as I bid farewell to readers of Life Notes, the parenting column I’ve had the pleasure of writing since July 2007 for the Richmond Times-Dispatch. Yes- more than 10 years! (Read my farewell column, in today’s newspaper, here.)
Life Notes was actually my second venture as a columnist for this daily newspaper in Richmond, Virginia: From 2000 to 2006, I wrote a weekly column for the Saturday metro section called Inspirations, which acquainted readers far and wide with the uplifting and resilient journeys of metro Richmond residents and with their explorations of faith and personal growth. It had a tremendous following, and according to Times-Dispatch reader surveys, was a primary driver for Saturday newspaper sales during that time.
Both columns were meaningful to me, as was my connection to their readers.
I retired Inspirations, however, when I “retired” from my daily journalism career to focus on penning books and freelance writing. Not an easy decision since I loved my work, but an exciting and necessary one, in order to fulfill the other dreams on my To Do list. I never regretted the choice.
This time around, with changes abreast in newspaper column inches and editorial direction comes the opportunity to take another leap that has long been on my To Do list: expanding the genre of books I write to include more nonfiction (in addition to my women’s fiction) and perhaps some young adult reads. And while I’ve enjoyed the opportunity to blog for the Huffington Post, I look forward to penning more essays and profiles about the power of story and the relevance of our individual journeys for additional national publications. (Stay tuned!)
So yes, this is a goodbye of sorts to one platform for my writing, but a hello to all of the opportunities and open doors on my uncharted path. Will you celebrate with me?
I hope you’ll follow this blog to see where the written word takes me. Feel free to comment below and share ideas about what you’d like to learn about personal growth, matters of faith, living your best life, walking in purpose or writing your way to joy. I look forward to exploring these themes and more with you, and to growing with you.
Sometimes you have to
1) Let go to grow
2) Leave behind in order to find
3) Stand up rather than continue to sit
Is this easy? Rarely.
Is it worth it? Always.
For even if you don’t hit the exact mark you’re aiming for, you’ll come closer to being your most authentic, purpose-filled self, and that’s a treasure worth seeking.
When we’re able to release the habits, beliefs and actions that keep us stuck at average or below, the doors to our next-level blessings will slowly but surely begin to open.
Get ready and stay ready.
Today I’m channeling the former queen of daytime TV…
You get some joy, she gets some joy, he gets some joy, we ALL get some joy!
There’s enough to go around and it’s not one-size-fits-all or first come, first served. Look within and listen. Start living your soul’s dream. You’ll see – your joy will flow.

Last week I decided to bake homemade oatmeal cookies for my son, but it was cold and dark outside and I didn’t feel like driving to the store to buy the brown sugar and raisins that the recipe called for and my pantry lacked.
Rather than give up, I pulled an “old school” cook’s move and substituted with what was on hand.
The all-purpose sugar and pure vanilla extract worked wonderfully, and though the cookies weren’t as “tan” as usual, the way they quickly vanished were proof that they were a hit. (He asked for more this weekend.)
So what’s the moral of this Monday Morning Musing? This right here:
Conditions won’t always be perfect. Everything you think you must have to succeed won’t be on hand. But leap anyway.
Make trial-and-error tweaks as needed. Operate in excellence.
Embrace imperfections that arise as your unique offering to the process.
Believe. Press on. Enjoy the journey.
Birth that vision. Give hope to others who are watching you.
If you’ll just get started, the rest will unfold when needed – or turn out better than you could have imagined.

NASA-funded lunar research has yielded evidence of water locked in mineral grains on the surface of the moon from an unknown source deep beneath the surface.
Using data from NASA's Moon Mineralogy Mapper (M3) instrument aboard the Indian Space Research Organization's Chandrayaan-1 spacecraft, scientists remotely detected magmatic water, or water that originates from deep within the moon's interior, on the surface of the moon.
The findings, published Aug. 25 in Nature Geoscience, represent the first detection of this form of water from lunar orbit. Earlier studies had shown the existence of magmatic water in lunar samples returned during the Apollo program.
M3 imaged the lunar impact crater Bullialdus, which lies near the lunar equator. Scientists were interested in studying this area because they could better quantify the amount of water inside the rocks due to the crater's location and the type of rocks it held. The central peak of the crater is made up of a type of rock that forms deep within the lunar crust and mantle when magma is trapped underground.

DA MAN: Are there any big changes that we can still expect from season 12? Especially with the departure of several regulars and, now, the addition of some new faces.
Martin Henderson: As with all of Shonda’s shows, there are sure to be big shocks, surprises and upsets as the season rolls toward the finale. Certainly romances are kindled, broken and tested and careers are also in question. I wouldn’t rob the audience of the thrill of watching it all unfold onscreen by giving away details but it certainly gets complicated in the corridors of Grey-Sloan [memorial hospital].
“I do feel a lot more turned on creatively when I get to do roles that are a little nutty”
DA MAN: By the way, can you also tell us how you were selected for the main cast of season 12?
Martin Henderson: I had worked with Shonda Rhimes twice before on a pilot and a show called “Off the Map.” So, when she asked me to sit down with her and talk, I was very excited to know what it was she wanted to discuss, and she then offered me the role in the meeting. It was a huge compliment to be given such a big opportunity and I was touched by her loyalty and confidence in me as an actor.
DA MAN: On a related note, when you joined the cast of “Grey’s Anatomy,” you walked into an already well-established group. How did you find working with this group for the first time?
Martin Henderson: I was actually pretty nervous on my first day. It felt like being the new kid at school, and I didn’t really know what to expect. Thankfully, the entire cast and crew of the show were extremely welcoming and made an effort to make me feel a part of their family.
DA MAN: Back to the show itself, a critic once remarked about “Grey’s Anatomy” that “At its worst, it’s been at least fascinating to watch.” What do you think is it that makes this show so popular and so likeable?
Martin Henderson: Personally, I think it has to do with how the show seems to incorporate so many elements into, what is at its core, a medical drama while also being funny, sad, cute, socially relevant, topical and, of course, with a constant dose of romantic and sexual intrigue. I like how it’s deep and meaningful with genuine insights into what it is to be a human with all its contradictions and confusion while still being light and fun. I guess it’s truly a well-balanced show.
DA MAN: Will you be on the show for the long run, or are you going for a “wait and see” approach for the time being?
Martin Henderson: I’m having such a good time on the show; so, for as long as it continues to be fun, I’d be very grateful for the opportunity to be a part of it and to keep entertaining everyone who loves it.

According to a 2014 poll from the Pew Research Centre, "online violence is especially more pronounced at the intersection of gender and youth." The poll surveyed 2,849 Americans online.
She has called and messaged the company numerous times, she said, but has received no direct response.
In an email, a Plenty of Fish spokesperson told CBC News that they have been contact with the Edmonton woman and all the fake accounts have been deleted.
I am surprised that no one here has mentioned that Fahrin Jaffer has numerous criminal convictions for fraud, theft, impaired driving, dangerous driving, etc.
Fahrin Jaffer has served jail time after being convicted of various Criminal Code charges but I guess the Law Society overlooked that given that she is a woman!
Out of frustration with the company, the woman has posted a warning about her experience on a support network page for abused women in Alberta. "There's actually a lot of women saying that their exes have done it to them too, and there's never been a way to get it to stop," she said.
"It's scary." Research indicates that women and girls tend to be the primary targets of some forms of cyber violence.
is the capital city of the Canadian province of Alberta.
Edmonton is on the North Saskatchewan River and is the centre of the Edmonton Metropolitan Region, which is surrounded by Alberta's central region.
The city anchors the north end of what Statistics Canada defines as the "Calgary–Edmonton Corridor".
The earliest known inhabitants settled in the area that is now Edmonton around 3,000 BC and perhaps as early as 12,000 BC, when an ice-free corridor opened as the last glacial period ended and timber, water, and wildlife became available in the region.
On the other hand, seven per cent of young men reported they had been stalked, and 13 per cent had experienced online sexual harassment.


The good news about Heartland Bank’s recent downtown move is that the new location is only two short blocks to the west of the old location. The bad news is that on moving day, the temperature was two degrees, there were a few inches of snow on the ground and the wind was gusting upwards of 29 miles per hour through the wind tunnel that is downtown Columbus, Ohio.
Thanks to the moving crew of AAO, Consumer Loan Officer James Hazley; VP Retail Sales Manager Ben Babcanec, VP Retail Operations Manager Ashley Trout; AO COS Patsy Loless, SCSR Jake Garris, Investment Representative Jason Ellinger, CSR Megan Lupica and AVP Facilities/Security Cecil Beasley, all equipment was moved, installed and working properly by the end of the day on Friday, January 24.
While Heartland Bank originally opened its doors back in 2006 on East State Street at Capitol Square, the new site at 101 South High provides a prominent presence in the gateway to the southern portion of downtown Columbus. “This new location will give us increased visibility and an opportunity to expand our relationships and community involvement in downtown Columbus. Downtown has now evolved into its own distinct community and deserves their own Community Bank,” stated Scott McComb, Chairman, President, and CEO of Heartland Bank.
A noticeable feature of the new space will be exterior signage that features a large 32’x40’ video display board that will be used to showcase clients, local events and organizations that the bank has partnered with over the years through philanthropic endeavors. The display board will be installed this spring.Heartland Bank partnered with Bill Schottenstein on the purchase of the building and signage. Lion Construction completed the build out and the design. Greg Schenk of the Schenk Company represented Heartland for site selection and real estate services.
If you live, work or play downtown, please stop by and see your neighborhood Community Bankers at 101 South High Street. Reserved parking is available on State Street, just west of High. And while the construction dust is still settling, you can be assured that you’ll be greeted with a warm smile and a friendly handshake each and every day. Stop in to see us and experience the difference a Community Bank can make.

Former Pakistan cricket team fast bowler Shoaib Akhtar has opined that the Gujarat Titans captain Hardik Pandya has proven himself as a worthy leader, but he still needs to work on one important aspect of his game. Pandya has had a dream IPL season thus far in 2022.
Not many fans expected him to achieve so much success in his first season as the Gujarat Titans captain, but the Baroda-based all-rounder has defied all odds and led the Titans to the IPL 2022 Final in their first season. Many members of the cricket universe now consider him a top contender for India’s captaincy.
Shoaib Akhtar is also highly impressed with his captaincy skills, but during an interaction with Sportskeeda Cricket ahead of the IPL 2022 Final, he highlighted that Hardik Pandya needs to work on his fitness.
“It’s never easy to captain the Indian cricket team. Hardik has proved his point (as a leader) but he still needs to focus on his fitness and bowling. When he was fit as an all-rounder, he was an automatic choice in the Indian team. As a pure batter, though, there is no vacancy in the Indian team,” said Shoaib Akhtar.
Here is why Shoaib Akhtar feels Hardik Pandya should work on his fitness
Fans who have followed the Gujarat Titans team closely would know that Hardik Pandya has frequently gone off the field after bowling an over or batting for long. Rashid Khan has captained the team during his absence.
Rashid has done well in Hardik’s absence, but at the international level, there is more responsibility on a captain, and a wrong decision by the standby skipper could have a big impact on the game. Hardik is back in the Indian squad for the upcoming home series against the South African cricket team. It will be interesting to see how he performs in those T20is.

I suppose I’ve put this off for long enough.
Oh no. Good lord, no. Holy potatoes, no. Ok, fine. Yes. I did see You Don’t Mess With the Zohan Friday night. I was excited. You all witnessed that. But afterwards, I was truly disappointed. Adam Sandler is always funny, as are his movies. And I was afraid that the funniest and best parts of the movie were going to be divulged in the trailers and previews. Well, I was right. Boy, was I right.
Not only was this movie not as funny as I had hoped, it was boring. Even the storyline was a little weird. I get the whole foreigner coming to America in search of a better life and career. But come on. Adam Sandler is far better suited for playing Joe Normal characters that have little quirks that make them funny. In Zohan, he was not Joe Normal anymore. And there weren’t any little quirks about him that could be played up.
Fine, My likes:
- Adam Sandler definitely bulked up for this part. Truly, it was the best part of the movie.
- Rob Schneider appeared. Talk about solidarity. And this is yet another reason I like Adam Sandler: He’s loyal.
- The commercials were bloody hilarious. That’s about it.
What I hated…
- This wasn’t Adam Sandler’s typical, quirky Joe Normal character.
- It wasn’t funny. The funniest parts were the commercials. The movie extended maybe 2 of the commercials in the movie… personally… the commercials were better.
- There was no concrete plotline. Sure, foreigner comes to America in search of a better life, etc. Didn’t that happen in Coming to America and Trading Places?
- Did I mention it just wasn’t funny?
- The hype. The hype made Zohan look like a secure contender for funniest comedy of the summer… and was perhaps going to give Mike Myers’ The Love Guru. If anything, it tainted my desire to see the Mike Myers flick because what if the best part was the previews…
Was I harsh on this movie? Perhaps. But considering D fell asleep, and I was bored and couldn’t sit still, I think it was an appropriate reaction for me to express.
The only shining star is hat The Incredible Hulk opens this weekend. Starring Edward Norton, I’m crossing my fingers that this ends up being a good one.


The wake on LAN feature can be affected by any peripheral connected to the motherboard, a video card, power supply, hard drive, optical drive and even RAM memory could be the culprit of the system not waking up.
I recommend you to test with a different power supply and to make sure that the motherboard is using the latest BIOS available.
To properly assist you, as this is a desktop motherboard forum, the model number of the motherboard will be appreciated.
It is a Dell Optiplex 7010, but I was more concerned with the network card settings. Wake on LAN works immediately after the computer is shutdown and for a couple of hours after, but at some point several hours later the Wake on LAN will not work. This made me think it was a network card power management setting, but I cannot seem to narrow it down further.

Kristian Nairn, who plays Hodor in Game of Thrones, talks about how he felt about the role.
Kristian Nairn, who plays Hodor in the HBO fantasy series GAME OF THRONES, has opened up about his time on the show.
Despite the fact that Game of Thrones ended more than two years ago, its stars are still recognized from the highly famous HBO series. Kristian Nairn, who played Hodor on the show, has said that fans of the program recognize him every day. In an exclusive conversation with This website, he reflected on his time on the fantasy epic.
Kristian is most recognized for his role as Hodor in the popular fantasy series The Lord of the Rings.
Hodor, who used to be known as Wylis, was a simple-minded servant of House Stark who worked in the stables at Winterfell.
However, when he traveled beside and protected Bran Stark, who went on to become King of the Six Kingdoms, he ended up playing a significant role in the plot of Game of Thrones.
In a dramatic twist in season six, Hodor was tragically killed off, leaving fans in tears.
Bran Stark took possession of the gentle giant’s body during the attack on the cave where they’d been hiding out, and he died at the hands of the White Walkers.
Bran accidently links the brains of the present-day Hodor and his younger version from the past in the sad scene.
Bran’s warging causes young Hodor to experience his own impending death, which damages his mind.
Fans were shocked to learn that their favorite character would no longer be a part of the show.
Kristian has reminisced on his experience as Hodor now that the fantasy series has come to an end after more than two years.
The actor shouted, “Yes, every day!” when asked if he still gets recognized from the show.
He talked on how it feels to be a part of such a well-known series and to have portrayed such a beloved role.
“I still consider myself fortunate to have been a part of such a monumental project,” Kristian admitted.
“Hodor was such a fascinating character, and I had a blast portraying him,” he continued.
Kristian also discussed his opinions on Game of Thrones’ tumultuous last season.
The show’s conclusion divided fans, with some praising it and others criticizing the way various stories were closed up.
Kristian commented of his thoughts on the series finale, “I try to remain objective here.”
“However, I am a fan of a variety of things.”Brinkwire Summary News”.

Last month I noted that Lord Hanningfield, the former Tory leader of Essex Council, has edged a step further towards being an active member of the House of Lords by tabling a written question, his first since he appeared in court charged with fiddling his expenses in February 2010. This follows the tentative first step he took last month, by saying something during a committee meeting. He still has not contributed anything to any debate in the main House of Lords chamber.

PERRY, Kan. – The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers at Perry Lake announces the opening of the application process for its annual Special Archery Hunt at Longview and Rock Creek parks to be held Oct. 1 – Dec. 31, 2020 and Slough Creek park Oct. 16 – Dec. 31, 2020. Applications are due Sept. 7, 2020.
This is a specially permitted, archery-only hunting event. Hunting is not usually allowed in the park areas at Perry Lake; however, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers hosts this annual hunt in areas that are closed to public hunting to prevent overpopulation of deer.
Hunters are randomly selected from a pool of applicants and assigned designated hunting units. In addition, hunters will choose a second hunter to hunt the assigned area with them. Each hunter is required to carry a special permit issued by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. All federal regulations and Kansas statutes apply.
Hunters can download applications online at https://www.nwk.usace.army.mil/Locations/District-Lakes/Perry-Lake/
For questions or to request an application, contact Park Ranger Wesley Henson by telephone at (785) 597-5144 or e-mail at email@example.com. You may also visit the Perry Lake Information Center at 10419 Perry Park Drive, Perry KS 66073. Applications are due by 4:00 p.m., Monday, Sept. 7, 2020.
Release no. 20-118
