Premier Doug Ford on Tuesday spoke in Ajax to a group of chambers of commerce representing the municipal governments in the eastern GTA. The message he delivered was a familiar one: governments need to get more efficient. Ford announced that the Progressive Conservatives would make more than $7 million available to large municipalities and school boards to cover the cost of line-by-line spending reviews, intended to help those entities realize Ford’s target of 4 per cent cuts.
“We’ve heard from a few municipalities that they will need to raise taxes,” Ford told the crowd. “That new taxes or deep cuts to services are the only solution ... I am here to tell you there is another way out there, my friends, because there is only one taxpayer.”
Toronto mayor John Tory’s ears must have felt a bit toasty at that moment. Toronto has been outspoken in asserting that the province’s decision to cut the funding it provides to jointly funded programs leaves the city in a fiscal pinch. The exact figures are disputed: Toronto says the annual impact will be $180 million; Ontario says it’ll be closer to $130 million. In either case, since the province revealed its plans only after Toronto had locked in its budget for the year, this is a real challenge.

Given that the mayor and some of his council colleagues have already argued that the cuts — specifically, to Public Health — will put lives in jeopardy, it would be very difficult for the city to go ahead and cut the services. (Once you play the “people will die” card, you’re kind of committed to saving them.) Realistically, then, unless Ford blinks (and that’s always possible), Toronto will likely have to raise taxes in the middle of a fiscal year.
Would that be such a terrible thing? If Ford sticks to his guns and the provincial cuts stand, and if Toronto makes up the revenue shortfall by raising taxes, isn’t that actually something both left and right should — dare I say it — support?
To state the obvious, the budget cut, much like the slashing of council last year, has been handled badly by the province. Reducing the size of council and altering the city’s share of joint-funding arrangements are within the province’s purview and were entirely fair ideas to consider. Surprising Toronto with them and ramming them down the city’s throat was callous, perhaps deliberately so.
But what we’re left with might not be so terrible.
Consider: How many times have we heard in recent years that Toronto’s revenues are too low? That John Tory’s decision to keep Toronto’s property-tax increases “at or below the rate of inflation” has, slowly but surely, eroded the city’s revenue base? How many warnings have there been that Toronto is massively exposed by its reliance on revenues from the land-transfer tax, which can swing wildly up or down according to trends in the real-estate market? My colleague Ed Keenan was writing about all these issues just a few months ago in the Toronto Star. He noted that Toronto’s property-tax rates are, by GTA standards, actually quite low, and that even if the city were to raise them by as much as 20 per cent, that would simply match the GTA median.
I don’t mean to pick on Keenan or to caricaturize his argument. I simply offer him as a representative example of a long-running, serious contention in this town: that we don’t raise enough revenue of our own, that we need to raise taxes, and that the reluctance of council to do so is a real but politically insurmountable problem.
Well, folks, opportunity may be knocking. I can’t imagine that anyone on the left would have wanted to do it this way, and it needs to be pointed out that any tax hike here would simply sustain the status quo. That is, it wouldn’t make new funds available for new or expanded programs; it would just hold the line. But it would at least be a crack in the keep-taxes-low monolith that has loomed over all of Toronto’s politics for a decade now. And if a future provincial government were to restore some of the now-withdrawn funding, Toronto would have a few extra bucks to spend on its own priorities.
The idea has appeal for those of us on the right, too. While I can’t condone the way in which the cuts were announced and implemented, the province isn’t lying when it says that it needs to find efficiencies. Ontario’s deficits are a problem, one that Ford is rightly determined to address. If Toronto (and other governments and entities) end up making good on the province’s cuts by raising taxes on their constituents, that’s a good thing.
It would mean, in effect, that consumption Ontario had been funding with debt would now be funded in real-time by taxes. This is what fiscal conservatives claim they want — use debt, when necessary, for capital investments and use taxes to cover daily operating expenses. Rather than punting the bill for services consumed today off to some future generation, pay for them out of pocket with our tax revenues in the here and now.
If the public feels as if it’s overtaxed, it can then ask itself, through our societal and demographic processes, what it’s willing to forgo in exchange for lower taxes. That would be a healthy thing: to have actual debates about what we value and what we don’t and then assign our finite resources accordingly. It’s a lot harder to do that when governments feel that they can fund everything indefinitely by borrowing the money and making it some future government’s problem. Having Toronto directly pay for the services through its own taxes helps with that and with another small-c conservative ideal: it puts the money and the decisions with the level of government closest to the issue.
I’m a realist, of course. The shouting between Queen’s Park and city hall will continue until morale improves. And the province is absolutely being cute by pushing any possible public anger at higher taxes or fees onto another level of government. But the next time you hear a politician warning that providing services might require higher taxes, we should all ask them a simple question: Why is that a bad thing?


NEW YORK CITY (WABC) -- America's top doctor warns of the spreading COVID-19 subvariant as many states roll back pandemic restrictions.
"We need to be prepared to pivot, I hope we don't need to go there, need to be prepared to be flexible," said Doctor Anthony Fauci.
The news comes as New York state approaches a sad milestone-- nearly 70,000 deaths since the start of the pandemic.
It's called BA-2 and is a subvariant of Omicron.
Omicron is the variant that washed over the New York City area during the holidays.
While many people tested positive, hospitalizations and deaths were lower than in previous waves.
"We have seen that BA-2 does not cause more severe illness than other strains of Omicron," said NYC Deputy Health Commissioner Doctor Celia Quinn. "It may be a little bit more transmissible."
Right now, overall COVID-19 numbers are low. But about one-third of those new cases are the new BA-2 subvariant which has been described as more transmissible.
Doctors want to make sure symptoms stay on the mild side, which is why they continue to press for vaccines and boosters.
According to the latest data from New York Governor Kathy Hochul more than 81% of all New Yorkers have had at least 1 dose of the vaccine.
And the push continues to vaccinate all eligible residents.

US Hindu Temple : Suspected pro-Khalistan activists are allegedly responsible for defacing the Swaminarayan temple in Newark, California, according to local law enforcement. The incident, brought to light last week, involved the desecration of the Hindu temple’s exterior wall with anti-India graffiti, prompting the Newark Police Service to launch an investigation.
US Hindu Temple Updates
The temple administration reported that the vandalism occurred on Thursday night when a devoted resident, residing in proximity to the shrine, discovered anti-Hindu and anti-India messages in black ink on an exterior wall.
The local administration was promptly notified, triggering an immediate response. Addressing the situation, a representative from the Newark Police Department emphasized the belief that the act was targeted and vowed a thorough investigation.
Expressing deep sadness over such incidents, the official underscored the senselessness of such actions, asserting that there is no tolerance for such behaviour in Newark. The commitment to a comprehensive and sensitive inquiry into the matter was assured.
During a press conference, the police captain stated, “We treat these incidents with seriousness and commit to a thorough investigation, ensuring careful and sensitive handling. Currently, officers are collecting evidence as part of the ongoing inquiry.”
Unfortunately, this incident is not an isolated one, as it joins a concerning trend of temples being targeted and defaced with similar graffiti in recent times. The community and law enforcement alike condemn these acts and are determined to uphold the values of tolerance and respect in Newark.

Government of Ghana has announced hotlines for needy communities and households to call for food items in this era of lockdown in some parts of the country.
Some parts of Greater Accra Region and Ashanti Region are in partial lockdown as ordered by President Nana Addo last week, a mechanism to minimize the spread of the pandemic coronavirus.
The President on Sunday night, April 5 2020 said the lockdown looks likely to be extended should a large number of the supposed 1,500 who had contact with COVID- 19 patients test prove prove positive for the disease.
As a result, many people in the lockdown areas may go on total starvation since they can no longer raise food for themselves.
So goverment has released the following hotlines for needy communities and households to call for fooditems.

Heller to run for Nevada governor Overnight Defense & National Security — Milley becomes lightning rod Joint Chiefs Chairman Milley becomes lightning rod on right MORE as the impeachment trial appears poised to wrap as soon as this weekend.
GOP senators have discussed their individual views about the trial behind closed doors this week, including at lunch meetings, but McConnell has limited his remarks to procedural steps and the timeline.
“He’s never really talked about it to us,” said Sen. Kevin CramerKevin John CramerThe Memo: Biden beats Trump again — this time in the Senate The 19 GOP senators who voted for the T infrastructure bill Republicans unveil bill to ban federal funding of critical race theory MORE (R-N.D.). “Mitch is a very good tactician ... but he’s also very respectful that every senator got here on their own.”
Sen. Rob PortmanRobert (Rob) Jones PortmanOvernight On The Money — Presented by Wells Fargo — GOP senator: It's 'foolish' to buy Treasury bonds Senate lawmakers let frustration show with Blinken McConnell: Republicans 'united in opposition to raising the debt ceiling' MORE (R-Ohio), an adviser to McConnell who hasn't made a decision about whether to convict Trump, said he wasn’t getting any pressure from leadership.
“I don’t think I’ve gotten any guidance,” Portman said. “Colleagues have stood up and expressed their views, but they’re not representing leadership. ... [McConnell] has said, 'I think this is a vote of conscience.'”
McConnell declined to respond to questions Wednesday about whether he was open to convicting the former president, whom he aligned closely with during Trump’s tenure in the White House.
The GOP leader has described himself as undecided and told reporters during a recent press conference that he was waiting to hear the arguments at trial. Asked if he was still undecided on Wednesday, a spokesman pointed back to his remarks about wanting to hear the case.
“I want to listen to the arguments. I think that's what we ought to do. That's what I said before it started. That's still my view,” McConnell said.
McConnell stuck closely to Trump during most of his presidency but has re-exerted influence as the most powerful Republican in a Democratic trifecta as he tries to steer the direction of the party heading into the 2022 midterm elections and beyond.
McConnell made a rare foray into House GOP politics this month when he warned that Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene’s (R-Ga.) embrace of conspiracy theories threatened the party — comments that went further than House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthyKevin McCarthyOvernight Hillicon Valley — Scrutiny over Instagram's impact on teens Top Democrats tout California recall with an eye toward 2022 Former national security officials warn antitrust bills could help China in tech race MORE’s (R-Calif.) remarks about the first-term lawmaker.
When asked about the decision to weigh in, McConnell appeared to indicate he was driven by wanting to make it clear that Greene's views do not represent the larger party.
He also went further than McCarthy in his public defense of Rep. Liz CheneyElizabeth (Liz) Lynn CheneyThird Republican drops out of race to replace Cheney after Trump endorses challenger Overnight Energy & Environment — Effort to repeal Arctic refuge drilling advances McCarthy-allied fundraising group helps Republicans who voted to impeach Trump MORE (R-Wyo.) when close Trump allies were making a failed attempt to unseat the No. 3 House Republican because of her vote for impeachment.
Additionally, McConnell has criticized Trump for his Jan. 6 rhetoric, when the president repeated his false claims that the election had been stolen and urged his supporters to march to the Capitol as then-Vice President Pence and members of Congress were counting the Electoral College votes.
McConnell, who disclosed late last month that he hasn’t spoken with Trump since Dec. 15, said Trump “provoked” the mob.
But the GOP leader has also taken steps that have been to Trump’s advantage, including denying a request from then-Senate Minority Leader Charles SchumerChuck SchumerCEOs urge Congress to raise debt limit or risk 'avoidable crisis' If .5 trillion 'infrastructure' bill fails, it's bye-bye for an increasingly unpopular Biden The Hill's Morning Report - Presented by National Industries for the Blind - Schumer: Dem unity will happen eventually; Newsom prevails MORE (D-N.Y.) to bring the chamber back into session early to start the impeachment trial while Trump was still in office.
Even when the Senate came back into session on Jan. 19, McConnell negotiated a delay to the trial start date, arguing that it would allow Trump’s attorneys to prepare their defense. And he was one of 44 Republicans who voted this week to say the trial was unconstitutional.
McConnell has closely guarded his endgame following initial reports from last month that he was open to convicting Trump, befuddling some members of his caucus and sparking backlash from some of Trump’s closest allies in the Senate.
Sen. James InhofeJames (Jim) Mountain InhofeTop Republican: General told senators he opposed Afghanistan withdrawal Austin, Milley to testify on Afghanistan withdrawal The Pentagon budget is already out of control: Some in Congress want to make it worse MORE (R-Okla.) said that while it wouldn’t be appropriate to tell reporters what McConnell has said, the Republican leader "hasn’t really told us to do anything.”
Cramer, asked about McConnell, added that there had been "no pressure from anybody."
The House impeachment managers have referenced McConnell’s criticism of Trump during their trial presentations this week. But McConnell has given nothing away, spending most of the proceedings with his hands in his lap.
The decision by leadership to not pressure GOP senators to vote against conviction comes as they’ve watched the fight tear apart House Republicans, including GOP lawmakers who voted to impeach Trump facing fierce criticism back home.
In order to convict, which would be a historic first, Democrats would need 17 Republican senators to side with all 50 members of the Democratic caucus.
It’s all but guaranteed that Trump will be acquitted. But roughly six GOP senators are viewed as potentially open to convicting him, though no Republican has said that they will do so. Only Sen. Mitt RomneyWillard (Mitt) Mitt RomneyWarren, Daines introduce bill honoring 13 killed in Kabul attack Overnight On The Money — Presented by Wells Fargo — GOP senator: It's 'foolish' to buy Treasury bonds Democrats aim for maximum pressure on GOP over debt ceiling MORE (R-Utah) voted for one of the articles of conviction last year, making it likely the current article will get more GOP support.
Sen. Bill CassidyBill CassidyGOP senator on Texas abortion law: Supreme Court will 'swat it away' when 'it comes to them in an appropriate manner' GOP hopes spending traps derail Biden agenda Sunday shows preview: States deal with fallout of Ida; Texas abortion law takes effect MORE (R-La.), who shocked Republicans on Tuesday when he voted to proceed with the trial, said he’s heard nothing from leadership about his decision.
“Haven't mentioned a word,” Cassidy said, asked about potential feedback.
Sen. Lisa MurkowskiLisa Ann MurkowskiRepublican leaders misjudged Jan. 6 committee Trump endorses GOP challenger to Upton over impeachment vote Businesses want Congress to support safe, quality jobs — so do nearly all Americans MORE (R-Alaska), also viewed as a crucial swing vote, said there’s been no pressure “whatsoever” on her to vote a particular way.”
“Absolutely,” she added, when asked if she was free to vote how she wanted.
GOP leadership isn’t whipping members to vote one way or another. Sen. John ThuneJohn Randolph ThuneManchin-McConnell meet amid new voting rights push Republican leaders misjudged Jan. 6 committee A tale of two chambers: Trump's power holds in House, wanes in Senate MORE (R-S.D.), McConnell's No. 2, acknowledged there were ongoing conversations but stressed that they were not part of an effort to persuade undecided Republican senators.
“You know, not really,” Thune said, asked if leadership was requesting members check in with them on how they will vote.
“People are having conversations,” he added. “You get a sense of where people are headed. ... But nothing formal, nothing organized.”

Folklore can be defined as an expressive body of culture often intertwined with creative practice. It has been playing a significant role throughout history in defining emotions and characteristics of people. Indigenous as well as different ethnicities and their religious, and cultural beliefs encompass the transmission of the artefacts of folklore from one region to another or from one generation to the next. Therefore, it is entangled with myths, ethnography, history, linguistics and literature. Plenty of different folklore have been existing around Sri Lanka as a country with social and cultural divergence. A deeper analysis of folklore may be helpful to explore the historical significance of material culture within a civilisation.
This study of folklore is chiefly driven by the story of Kuweni- a mind provoking narrative that signifies the intangible cultural heritage: ancient social structure, cultural values, indigenous communities, and their code of beliefs of Sri Lanka. There are different mythical characteristics intertwined with “Kuweni” as a female ruler in folklore. As it unfolds, the evolution of Kuweni’s character from an individual woman to a lover, wife, mother and a single parent who finally gets murdered by her own tribe is an intriguing narrative of cultural significance. Kuweni can also be identified as the main inducement behind the victory of Aryan Prince Vijaya who conquered the country, and Kuweni betrayed her own tribe to enthrone the prince.
A greater insight into this folklore signifies the ancient clothing practices, tools, techniques and processes of draping, textile and apparel manufacturing that was inherited in the society by then. The specific outcome of this study will lead to recreation of emotional values of folklore of Kuweni through fashion products to encourage youngsters to reconnect with their ancestral roots. Team headed by Dr Gopura, Dr Wickramasinghe, and Associate Professor Payne together with their Research Student Shashiprabha Thilakarathne is conducting this study.

Enjoyable comedy that sees a group of gaming friends caught up in a real murder mystery. Some laugh out loud moments here, with a strong cast that make good on some flimsy material at times. Worth a look!
Incredibly clever tense horror/thriller where sound attracted monsters stalk a small family struggling to survive. So many subtle moments and clever ideas but with occasional hints of inevitability. Highly enjoyable, worth a trip to a good cinema! Shhhh!
Elaborate, if whimsical, musical show-film, based around the life and times of P.T. Barnum and circus. Enjoyable songs and performances fill this movie, with lots of the trademark ‘old Hollywood’ about it too. Races along nicely and is generally warm and fuzzy!
Storm chasing near divorcees battle ever larger CGI tornados. FX jammed mid 90s plotless silliness, saved by some spectacular FX and set piece action. Strange 80s-90s cast includes Helen Hunt, Bill Paxton, Jami Gertz(!), Alan Ruck(!!) and Cary Elwes(!!!). Windy!
This film is absolute crap in every possible way – made me want to set myself on fire. Watch it, if only for the novelty value of seeing what happens if a crazy-drunk conversation is taken seriously and made into a film. Sadly, it can not be unseen.
Red-neck heist movie. The plot jumps around a tad wildly but the whole thing holds together pretty well. Has a Coen brothers feel to it yet lacks the fun aspect and the characters you need, but enjoyable none the less.
Hard to like mish-mash. Gruesome drippy visuals and gore weaved into a detective story that makes no real sense. Another poor attempt at dragging out a Franchise that was never really very good anyway. Watch if bored only.

So-called “box trucks” are common sights on Illinois roadways. They’re used to transport furniture, refrigerated foods, and many other types of goods across the state and around the country. But because of their size, box trucks are not as maneuverable as passenger cars are, and they also require a greater distance to come to a complete stop. These drawbacks can sometimes cause box truck accidents.
Such was the case this week on Interstate 90 in Lake County. On Tuesday morning, a box truck was driving in the Chicago suburb of Arlington Heights along the eastbound side of I-90 (which is also known as the Jane Addams Memorial Tollway at that location). Near the Arlington Heights Road exit, the box truck changed lanes and struck a car driven by a 60-year old Long Grove man. His car struck another vehicle, and the chain reaction accident eventually involved two other vehicles. The Long Grove man was rushed to a hospital in Elk Grove, but was pronounced dead when he got there. Two other people suffered injuries in the wreck.
It’s unclear exactly what caused the chain reaction collision, but the driver of the box truck was cited by police for failure to reduce speed and improper lane usage. From the information given, it appears that the box truck driver will be primarily to blame for the crash as well as the death of the Long Grove man and the injuries to the two other motorists.
The two injury victims may choose to file personal injury lawsuits against the box truck driver. Those suits could allow them to collect reimbursement for medical costs as well as related damages. However, the family members of the Long Grove man have solid grounds for a wrongful death lawsuit against the driver of the box truck. A jury could award lost future wages and damages for pain and suffering and loss of care and companionship in addition to reimbursement for burial and hospital expenses.

Winter Storm Watches are in effect for areas north of Highway 29, beginning Wednesday morning through Thursday morning. With a Winter Weather Advisory for Waushara County as well.
It's the calm before the storm, as winds crank out of the southeast and gust up to 25mph... rising out temperatures into the mid to upper 30s.
A wintry mix of snow, sleet and freezing rain moves into the area from the southwest after 7pm this evening. It will continue to be a wintry mix and an icing event for the Fox Valley in the morning hours with strong winds whipping up to 40mph. This freezing rain and sleet will move north for the afternoon into the Northwoods. Meanwhile, flip to regular rain in the Fox Valley. But by Wednesday night, temperatures drop cold enough to flip us all over to heavy snowfall until Thursday afternoon. This will give the Northwoods ice, then 8-12" of snow. The Fox Valley will see ice, rain and then snow accumulations of 3-7". This will be a heavy wet snow, termed "heart attack snow". Don't overexert yourself shoveling, take frequent breaks!
Scattered snow showers continue into Friday and Saturday, with an additional inch or two possible.

The toxic effects of the widespread polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH), fluoranthene (FLU), on Life-history traits of Capitella sp. M as a function of population density were investigated in a life-table-response-experiment (LTRE) lasting 134 d. Animals from laboratory cultures were exposed to 6 different FLU concentrations (range 0 to 80 μg FLU [g dry wt sed]–1, ppm) at 3 population densities (range 529 to 36 842 worms m–2), and survivorship, growth rate until maturity, and reproductive parameters were recorded. Fluoranthene exposure significantly reduced juvenile survivorship in a concentration- dependent manner, whereas population density had no effect on this trait. In contrast, increasing density (= food limitation) was associated with significant decreases in body size at maturity and increased time to maturity, while FLU had no effect on these traits. Effects of FLU on time to first reproduction, % reproducing females, larvae per brood, broods per female, and population growth rate (λ) varied in response to the intensity of density dependence. In general, interactions between FLU and density were compensatory (antagonistic) at low toxicant exposures, but synergistic at the highest. Population effects are summarised by effects on population growth rate. Our main result is that at low concentrations of FLU (0 to 40 ppm), increasing density alleviated FLU'S effects on λ. Thus increasing FLU decreased λ at low density but had no effect at high density. At the highest concentrations of FLU, however, the reverse was the case ('synergistic effects'). Here, the effect of increasing density is to exacerbate the effects of FLU. This result is particularly important because it demonstrates that LTREs carried out at low density (non-food limited), as most have been in the past, may seriously underestimate effects in the field, where densities are generally high and likely to produce food limitation, as here. Our results suggest that when food availability is limiting, the impact of low levels of toxicant stress on population dynamics may be marginal. By contrast at higher toxicant exposures, food limitation exacerbates toxicant effects and may increase the likelihood of extinction.

The NHS in our country is struggling to meet the demands of the people who need it most; the everyday hard workers, and the older generations. There has been thousands of appointments cancelled. GP’s are struggling to cope with the high demands this winter, and the government refuse to give it more money. It’s vital that we see a properly funded NHS, otherwise the NHS will exist no more.
It’s time the government invested properly into this country’s healthcare system, and stopped pretending that an issue does not exist, it does – and it’s more apparent than ever before, it’s time we invested £50 billion to our NHS, not the EU.
Unity represents the hard-working people of this country. We want to hold the government to account. That’s why we’re saying enough is enough, it’s time the NHS was properly managed and funded.
Sign here if you agree.
The elitist politicians never feel the pain of never getting an appointment or their surgery being cancelled, because they use the private sector for their care. While the political elite sit with their lavish salaries, the hard-working people of this country are being shafted, and thrown on the scrapheap.


The initial Ariane 5 to loft four global positioning satellites for Europe’s Galileo navigation system has begun its build-up at the Spaceport in French Guiana for a milestone Arianespace mission in November.
This launcher is an Ariane 5 ES version that began the integration process begining of October, with the cryogenic core stage’s positioning over a mobile launch pad, followed by integration of the vehicle’s two solid propellant boosters.
Designated as Flight VA233 in Arianespace’s numbering system, the mission’s Ariane 5 was assembled inside the Spaceport’s Launcher Integration Building. During activity in the Spaceport’s Launcher Integration Building, the heavy-lift vehicle for Arianespace Flight VA233 underwent the assembly process that began by mating Ariane 5’s two solid propellant strap-on boosters with the main cryogenic stage.
The next step was integration of the launcher’s vehicle equipment bay as well as the installation of Ariane 5’s EPS storable propellant stage.
From launcher integration to final assembly
After completion of verifications and systems checkout by production prime contractor Airbus Safran Launchers, the Ariane 5 will be moved to the Spaceport’s Final Assembly Building — where Arianespace takes authority for payload integration and launch.
The EPS storable propellant upper stage is powered by a re-ignitable engine that operates with MMH and N2O4 propellants. It differentiates Flight VA233’s launcher from the Ariane 5 ECA versions, which have a cryogenic upper stage and are typically used on Arianespace missions to geostationary transfer orbits with telecommunications satellites.
For Flight VA233, the Ariane 5 ES will carry the quartet of Galileo satellites (weighing 738 kg. each) and their 447 kg. dispenser system to medium-Earth orbit, for deployment at an altitude of approximately 23,222 km.
Ariane 5’s first use to deploy Galileo satellites
The upcoming Ariane 5 launch will mark the initial utilization of Ariane 5 in deploying Galileo constellation satellites. Flight VA233 will continue Arianespace’s support of the global positioning satellite system, following seven missions performed with the company’s medium-lift Soyuz that carries a pair of Galileo spacecraft on each flight. Seven Soyuz missions have delivered a total of 14 navigation satellites into orbit since 2011.
Galileo is a key effort for Europe, offering highly accurate positioning with great precision and reliability via a civil global satellite navigation system. The program is funded and owned by the European Union, with overall responsibility for management and implementation held by the European Commission. Design and development of the new generation of systems and infrastructure has been assigned to the European Space Agency.
The spacecraft to be launched on Flight VA233 were built by OHB System in Bremen, Germany, with their navigation payloads provided by Surrey Satellite Technology in the United Kingdom. Airbus Defence and Space developed the dispenser system that will carry and deploy the satellites from Ariane 5.

Fortech – National Champion in the European Business Awards
06 June 201908 September 2014 | News
Fortech has been named a National Champion for The Business of the Year Award with Turnover of €0-25m in The European Business Awards (EBA). This prestigious competition is supported by business leaders, members of the academia, political members and the media from across Europe. EBA have been granted these awards since 2007 to the most innovative and successful businesses on the continent for their financial success, innovative solutions and ethics.
Fortech is one of the 709 of over 24,000 businesses from 33 European companies named National Champions and making it to the second phase of the competition.
Fortech is a completely Romanian business, an entrepreneurial initiative started 10 years ago. The company has been witnessing a rapid growth over the last 3 years, with a yearly revenue increase in the 47% to 62% range. This growth rate, one of the highest for the Romanian IT outsourcing industry according to data published about our main competitors, earned us high positions in several important international rankings such as Deloitte Fast50 CEE & Fast500 EMEA, which listed us in 2013 in of the last 4 years. It is worth mentioning that this growth is organic, made only with company resources; the company is 100% Romanian, with no external investment.
Calin Vaduva, Fortech’s CEO said: “We’re very proud to represent Romania as a National Champion for The Business of the Year Award with Turnover of €0-25m. The European Business Awards promotes Europe’s most successful and dynamic companies in a multi-stage competition. We look forward to presenting to the panel of judged a detailed case on our business success in the next round.”
Adrian Tripp, CEO of the European Business Awards said: “Congratulations to Fortech. It is a great achievement to be named National Champion and we wish them luck in the next stage. The European Business Awards is going from strength to strength, inspiring businesses to greater success and helping to improve the competitive edge of companies across Europe.”
Jean Stephens, CEO of RSM International, the main sponsor of EBA, said: “Every year this competition gets tougher and more competitive as more companies, of varied sizes and across all sectors, chose to compete in this prestigious competition. With the increased number of entries and countries, this year looks to become the toughest Awards yet. It will be exciting to watch as we move through to the next round.”

My Garden Over Gaza
Words cannot describe my full feelings or adequately portray how gorgeous this book is and how every single person needs this right now.
Genre: Picture Book
Author: Sarah Musa
Illustrator: Saffia Bazlamit
Noura is a young girl caring for her brother in Gaza as her mom works sewing in their basement to make ends meet. Their dad has died, and a way Noura connects with his memory is by planting on the rooftop, plants he brought when he was expelled from his farmland due to the Israeli occupation.
But there are Drones flying over Gaza.
And one day…they spray Noura’s garden.
Noura’s reaction is heartbreaking and my tears flowed at her despair.
But her words at the end were powerful.
She would never stop planting.
This book uses the symbolism of plants to show how living under oppression and occupation in Gaza affects families, and it is a gentle way to teach children about the occupation while also moving emotions to show them how wrong it is and how the people of Gaza are unfairly trapped.
My heart truly is broken because I know that this is a reality, that this book is not even touching the even harsher realities kids in Gaza and Palestine face.
And we must elevate Palestinian Authors and Illustrators such as this book and elevate their voices and secure their freedom.
Honestly, and I do not say this lightly, if you are going to buy one book this year,
Make it this one!

DNV KEMA Energy & Sustainability, an energy risk management provider, has developed SUNdy, a large-scale offshore solar field concept.
SUNdy features a hexagonal array that floats on the sea surface. A collection of these arrays, totaling 4,200 solar panels, forms a solar island capable of generating 2 MW of power. Multiple islands connected together make up a solar field of 50 MW or more, the company explains.
The technology uses thin-film 560 W solar panels that are flexible and lighter than traditional rigid glass-based modules, allowing them to undulate with the ocean's surface says Sanjay Kuttan, managing director of the DNV Clean Technology Centre in Singapore.
‘The key to creating an ocean-based structure of this size is the use of a tension-only design,’ Kuttan says. ‘Rather like a spider's web, this dynamic, compliant structure yields to the waves, yet is capable of withstanding considerable external loads acting upon it.’
Separating the solar arrays into prefabricated sections allows for large-scale manufacturing and streamlined assembly offshore, the company adds. The cable grid provides for maintenance access in the form of floating gangways. Below the surface, the shape of the island is maintained by the tensile forces from the lengthy spread mooring.
According to the company, SUNdy is particularly suitable for deployment in Asia and ‘congested coastal megacities’ with limited opportunities for rooftop PV deployment.

Kanye West's sneakers sold for record $1.8mn at private auction
Kanye West just added two million dollars to his bank account, thanks to his sneakers! The pair of Nike Air Yeezy 1s worn by the rap mogul was sold for $1.8 million at a private auction, Sotheby's confirmed. The sneakers fetched almost triple the money of the previous record, which was a pair of Nike Air Jordan 1s sold for $615,000 in August 2020.
"The sale marks the highest publicly recorded price for a sneaker sale ever," Sotheby's said in a statement, adding that, "The sale also marks the first pair of sneakers to top $1 million." Notably, West wore the Black Yeezys while performing Hey Mama and Stronger during the 2008 Grammy Awards. The pair of prototype Nikes were acquired by RARES, a sneaker investment marketplace.
"We are thrilled with the result, which has nearly tripled the highest price on record," Brahm Wachter, Sotheby's head of streetwear and modern collectables, said in a statement. "The sale speaks volumes of Kanye's legacy as one of the most influential clothing and sneaker designers of our time, and of the Yeezy franchise he has built which has become an industry titan," he added.
To note, RARES helps people invest in rare pairs of athletic footwear. Interestingly, you can buy shares in a pair of shoes, just how you buy a company's stocks. RARES was started by former American football player Gerome Sapp. "That was actually the grail of grails," Sapp said, as he offered to buy at a price that was beyond Sotheby's estimate of $1 million.
The high-end shoes of size 12 (US) or 11 (UK) were designed by the Ye rapper himself, along with Mark Smith for Nike. The prototype is made of soft black leather and comes with perforated detailing throughout the upper for added charm. The gorgeous pair of black sneakers also comes with the classic Yeezy forefoot strap and the 'Y' medallion lace locks.

Down is good, Crowbar is good, Kyuss is good, but Virginia’s King Giant has become my go-to band for nasty, sludgy, whiskey-soaked Southern doom ‘n roll.
Last September, I stumbled across a King Giant video for a song called “13 to 1” from their self-released 2009 album, Southern Darkness and included it in one of our MISCELLANY posts. That song is heavy and dirty and bluesy — slow and nasty, with sourmash-soaked vocals and big, rounded, beautiful guitar tones, not to mention the unusual tinkling of a banjo during the first 45 seconds. Very cool shit, and the video was a kick to watch, too.
Well, King Giant has just released a video for yet another song from Southern Darkness, called “Solace”. It’s a performance-based clip filmed at a Washington, DC joint called the 9:30 Club — a place of significance for this band. And guess what? It’s another cool video for another hot-shit song. (more after the jump, including the video . . .)
It may help to be from the South or the border States to fully appreciate this band, but it’s not necessary. All you need is a functioning brain stem, a warm feeling for fuzz-drenched, gut-busting, hook-laden riffage, an appreciation for scorching guitar solos — and a willingness to let yourself be dragged by the ankles behind a smoking pick-up over an Appalachian back road turned to deep muck by a torrent from dark skies. Figuratively speaking, of course.
It may also help if you’re on the “mature” end of metal fandom, because the dudes in this band have been around, they’ve paid some dues, and they sing about the rougher, darker side of real life. What they’ve been through — including the loss of their original lead singer Bob Dotolo, Jr., who killed himself in 2007 — comes through in the music.
King Giant have got shitloads of soul and an innate feel for this kind of Southern-fried doom, and Southern Darkness is loaded with powerful, heavy-ass songs. We’re happy to report that the band is in pre-production for their next album — to be called Dismal Hollow — and will start recording in March for a planned release during the summer.
In the meantime, here’s the new video for “Solace”:
And in case you missed it, here’s King Giant’s video for “13 to 1”:

Title: Geothermal Potential in Crescent Valley, Eureka County, Nevada
ABSTRACT: Crescent Valley received one of the highest favorability scores in phase I of the DOE-sponsored Nevada play fairway analysis project and was therefore selected for detailed study in phase II. As part of the detailed study, geological, geochemical and geophysical data were collected, synthesized, and analyzed to identify favorable structural settings for geothermal fluids in the basin. A total of nine favorable structural settings were identified. Two host known geothermal systems, and seven could potentially host blind geothermal systems. In phase II a predictive geothermal potential model was conducted for each favorable structural setting. The highest-ranking areas in Crescent Valley are in the Dann Hot Springs step-over (relay ramp), followed by the two northern step-overs along the Cortez Mountains front, as well as a fault intersection at Hot Springs Point.

Title: Effect of Energy Directionality on ReMi Analysis
ABSTRACT: Seismic surveying methods used to determine shear wave velocities fall primarily into the category of either active or passive, in terms of their source. The purpose of such a survey is often to evaluate building site classification for earthquake shaking hazards, which requires Vs30 estimates at a minimum. For this reason, practitioners often choose passive methods, due to the locations of survey sites within noisy urban areas. There is debate over the reliability of passive methods compared to those that depend on an active source. The concern is that the overall directional origin of the source energy relative to array configuration is unknown, and may have the effect of overestimating velocity values in the raw analysis. In the case of a linear array, some proportion of an omni-directional ambient energy field will allow correct analysis. Refraction Microtremor (ReMi™) is a passive method that utilizes a linear array. To explore this issue, we conducted 3D synthetic studies as well as field recordings using an “L” shaped array configuration, consisting of two ReMi™ lines connected at a 90° angle. Such a geometry allows for analysis of effects from directionality. The synthetic modeling, which included added noise, demonstrates reliable shear-velocity estimates from cases with as little as 15% omni-directional energy. Several real-world examples collected from “L” arrays in the Reno-Sparks area demonstrate consistent results regardless of line orientation. We compiled a large volume of statistical data from the 10,000 ReMi™ surveys collected by Optim SDS for the Las Vegas Earthquake Parcel Map, at various array orientations. A regional analysis resulted in similar hazard-classification statistical distributions among Vs30 estimates, regardless of predominant array orientation.

Title: Discovery and Analysis of a Potential Blind Geothermal System in Southern Gabbs Valley, Western Nevada
ABSTRACT: The southern Gabbs Valley geothermal prospect is a blind thermal anomaly located 5 km north of the Gabbs Valley Range and ~15 km southeast of the Don A. Campbell geothermal power plant in west-central Nevada. The discovery of this blind thermal anomaly was initiated from the development of a detailed geothermal potential map covering 96,000 km² of the Great Basin region. This map synthesized about 9 geologic and geophysical parameters and showed high geothermal potential in southern Gabbs Valley. Subsequent geologic reconnaissance identified areas of favorable structure for hosting a blind geothermal system. Areas displaying complex fault relationships were then targeted for further exploration utilizing a shallow 2-meter thermal survey. The first 2-meter survey incorporated 60 data points in the basin, with one anomalously high-temperature point located in the southern portion of the basin. Water samples were taken from the Diamond A ranch 6 km northwest of the thermal anomaly. These samples yielded a geothermometer of 130-140°C. Additional shallow temperature survey work has been completed constraining the extent of the thermal anomaly and establishing a 7 km² area with elevated 2-meter temperatures. Subsurface data generated from a new gravity survey show that the 2-meter thermal anomaly corresponds to a significant gravity gradient that probably reflects a subsurface fault and possible fault intersection. Exploration of the system is ongoing, and further detailed mapping of bedrock and Quaternary exposures in the area will aid in understanding the structural controls of this potential geothermal system. The integration of geochemical, geophysical, and geologic datasets in this area will elucidate the probability of a commercial-grade geothermal system and produce a conceptual model to be used in the selection of drill targets.

Title: Lithium and the Lithium Clays of McDermitt Caldera, Nevada
ABSTRACT: The renewable energy revolution has taken off with the advent of lightweight, rechargeable lithium-ion batteries. The demand for lithium used in these batteries has increased exponentially over the last decade and is expected to continue as electric automotives become mainstream and nations such as Germany transition entirely to renewable energy. To supply future lithium demand, mineral exploration has turned to lithium clay deposits like that of McDermitt Caldera, Nevada. Lithium is hosted in the caldera lake sediments, specifically in smectite and illite clays. Estimates of the resource are 2*10^9 million tons of lithium. Current research efforts are aimed at answering the question of origin for the clays: are they hydrothermal or diagenetic, or a combination of the two? Answering this question will have us taking ages of the deposit stratigraphy, examining the deposit mineral assemblages for information of lake conditions, and understanding the dynamics of the McDermitt Caldera lake such that lithium clays could form. These answers will help guide exploration for more caldera-hosted lithium lake sediments.

Originally going to be called, "Faith" - the album is dedicated to her father, whose birthday was yesterday. Her next album will be released on her mother's birthday, .
Frida Precariat got her start underground - in a Hampshire College dorm room during January 2010. She crooned depressive lyrics over shoegaze beats as half of electronic duo Public Safety, alongside Expensive Looks' Alec Feld. Their first and only EP "United Hate" was released as a limited-edition cassette by Further Records.
She released her debut solo EP, "Still, like Dust" in August 2013, ringing with lyrics of love, loss and the freedom of her punk, Western-Massachusetts lifestyle. Her influences span from hip-hop to noise rock, postmodern dance to digital art.
Through channeling her love of the art world into trippy pop music, Frida Precariat makes her unique sound into something unforgettable.
Aside from music, Frida is a lifelong dancer and a true artist. She views everything she creates as performance, and shares with her audience her gospel, which she describes as:
a willingness to dream that
is glitched in technicolor, and
flows like water.

Not long after I discovered that Tracy Lawrence had launched a Kickstarter campaign to fund his next album, now comes word that Jo Dee Messina has also decided to skip the record labels and ask fans to help her fund her next album.
From a press release:
Jo Dee Messina has garnered a reputation for being fiercely independent, honest, determined and driven. The multi-platinum, award-winning country singer/songwriter is now paving a new path with her "My time. Our music." campaign.
For the first time in her successful 18-year music career, JO DEE is free to make the album she wants. While grateful for the support of her previous record label, she is looking ahead to this new chapter in her career and will release a new full-length album with the people's help through Kickstarter.com. Fans worldwide can be a part of the "My time. Our music." movement that begins today (5/24) at www.kickstarter.com/projects/2010853438/jo-dee-messinas-new-album.
"Now that I have the ability to make any record I want, I'd like to take a different route," Jo Dee explains. "I want to give the public a chance to be heard. This time I want to make a record WITH you, in addition to making one FOR you. Kickstarter is the perfect platform. It allows me to change the way things have traditionally been done in my career for years. It's totally exciting!"
Jo Dee's backers will be involved with every step that goes into creating and recording the album. They will be rewarded with exclusive content and one-of-a-kind opportunities. A $100,000 goal has been set to fund studio time, musicians, engineers, engineer assistants, production assistants, cartage, background vocalists, lead vocal recording days, overdubs, utility musicians, equipment rental, recording, mixing, mastering and more. In order to succeed, the goal must be reached within a 30-day period.
Additionally, Jo Dee's fans have been involved in the creative process by influencing which songs will make it on the album, via their input at live shows, Facebook/Twitter comments or Stageit reviews. Fans will also have the opportunity to vote on album artwork and even submit original pieces for consideration. The "My time. Our music." campaign gives the public an authentic, first-hand glimpse into all that is involved with each step of releasing an album.
"This album is truly for you, the people who appreciate the creative process, as well as my amazing fans," exclaims Jo Dee. "There's no question, I wouldn't be where I am today without your love and support. You've been with me since the beginning, and I'm in need of your support now more than ever. This album is a fresh start for me, and I want us to go on this exciting journey together."

Why it helps: There’s no need to do the actual examination and investigation now. Instead, just focus on identifying what it is you might delve into someday—in a memoir or in the pages of a journal or just in your mind. What truth is important for you to get at? You have a structure (your three sentences), you have a crucial event (that may have caused or contributed to that life story) and now you have a purpose—a reason for writing that will let you learn, enjoy and even be surprised by the story you’ve been waiting to tell yourself and—maybe, just maybe, the world, as well.
I honestly think, as put by George Burns, it is better to be a failure at something you love than to be a success at something you hate. It is not a failure if you enjoyed the process. Even if you fall down, don’t worry. Have a fresh view. The world looks different from the ground. You can take from every experience what it has to offer you. Do better the second time. You never know when you success is at threshold. It’s very difficult to come up with new, creative, and novel ideas unless you are passionate about your work. Leave your reputation and invest in character. Cheers to a new year; another chance for us to get it right with a new resolution.
What's your story? Anyone who has lived a full life has something fascinating to share with the world. The trick to writing an autobiography is to treat it like any good story: it should have a protagonist (you), a central conflict, and a cast of fascinating characters to keep people engaged. You may want to think about a certain theme or idea that has been present in your daily life to revolve your story around. Read on to learn how to craft the story of your life and polish your writing to make it sing.
“Talking about the past can have a healing function, but what we find is that talk, literally, is cheap,” Dr Hunter says. “We speak words and they fly away before we’ve faced what it is they convey. This is not the case with the written word. Writers find themselves saying, ‘ I never really thought about it before’ or ‘ I never saw it this way until I started to write it’.
Show, don't tell. Engage your reader by showing them a specific process or scene, rather than narrate directly to them. For example, write a scene that shows the reader how you discovered your mother’s letters from her family in Poland after her death. This will give the reader key information to help move the story forward, without telling them in a long, uneventful passage.
Well I’m so inexperienced to articulate what I m feeling right now. This is the first time that I have read livelifehappy.com but I would definitely say this is the best utilization and happy hours for me. I wish I could find lot more of the story. I kept on scrolling down but I could comments section. This has given me different way of looking into things and people as well.
Also, it’s important to know who you’re writing your life story for. Writing for your family and friends is great! But it requires a different perspective than writing for publication. If you’re interested in getting your life story published by a traditional publishing house, then you’ll need a whole different perspective than if you’re self-publishing your memoirs.
The consequence(s): Ask yourself, What disaster will happen if the goal is not achieved? What is my protagonist afraid will happen if she doesn’t achieve the goal or solve the problem? The consequence is the negative situation or event that will result if the goal is not achieved. The combination of goal and consequence creates the main dramatic tension in your plot. It’s what makes the plot meaningful.
wow! thank u very much for the wise and beautiful tips, i’m now working on my life story and sometimes i come across a challege whereby my unconscious try to stop me and make memories haze. but from now on with the knowledge i have from your tips soon the world will be reading me, but my other problem is that i don’t know who is going to publish me.
Thanks for the kind words and encouragement. The memoir is based on a man’s life that reads like a movie. He escaped from communist Hungary in the 60’s only to be held as a spy in a neighboring country. He got his Fiance out first and she married someone else while he was being held as a spy. His life started with a bomb landing less than ten feet from the stroller he was in – and the bomb didn’t explode.
Identify the main characters. Every good story has interesting characters, friends and foes who help move the plot along. Who are the characters in your life? It's a given that your parents will play a role, along with your spouse and other close family members. Think beyond your immediate family to others who have affected your life and should play a role in your autobiography.

To end up being a lens, you must finish an affiliate’s level or greater. Most companies like lens with a minimum of an associate’s degree, although some individuals choose to function as an apprentice. A bachelor’s level is also preferable, although an affiliate’s level will suffice. In some geographic areas, qualification is necessary via an organization or its very own certification system. Qualifications may have to be restored regularly. As well as, relying on the employer, a lens’s level can be an added benefit.
Choosing an optician must be based on your general health and wellness. Your medical professional ought to be able to identify and also deal with numerous eye illness. Along with doing routine eye examinations, an optician can also execute eye emergency treatment, suggest spectacles, and also provide details concerning vision treatment. Nevertheless, eye doctors are not eye doctors. While they might not recommend drugs, they can refer clients to an eye doctor, if the problem is serious or serious.
A lens is needed to fulfill details criteria. The National Council of Opticians (NACO) has requirements for opticians. Opticians need to also pass an examination to be certified.

Opticians finish a four-year optometry college education. They get eight years of clinical training. These medical professionals are responsible for supplying vision treatment services to the general public. A licensed optician may exercise in greater than one state.
Prior to the creation of contact lenses, spectacles had to be made of metal or glass. This made them a valuable commodity. Lens would certainly likewise make use of customized equipment to gauge the curvature of the cornea. By the mid-18th century, the keratometer was designed by a French eye doctor named Samuel Hankins. One more important tool in lens’ equipment arsenal is the slit-lamp/bio-microscope. This tool enables them to examine and diagnose the eye’s anterior and also posterior segments, which are the eyelid as well as lens.
An eye doctor has completed four years of university education, including pre-medical research studies. In addition to their undergraduate degree, optometrists need to complete a teaching fellowship and also hands-on medical training to end up being accredited. In addition to assessing eye health, optometrists can prescribe medicines for different eye conditions. Optometrists must complete continuing education and learning yearly to remain licensed. It’s likewise crucial to remember that ophthalmologists can be involved in diagnosing other sorts of illness, such as cancer. bern fläche
Optical equipment is a vital part of a detailed eye test. Along with eyeglasses and also contact lenses, opticians utilize customized tools. This tools is called a keratometer and also has been around for decades. The keratometer, created by French eye doctor Samuel Hankins in 1880, is used to gauge corneal curvature. Another tool utilized to check out the eye is the slit-lamp/bio-microscope. This permits the lens to observe the former part of the eye, including the eyelid. A binocular slit-lamp examination supplies a clear, stereoscopic sight of eye structures, making it possible for the lens to make exact physiological medical diagnoses.
Along with training, a lens can operate in a hospital or practice. Specialist technological institutions provide programs in opticianry. Two-year programs generally result in an affiliate’s degree and one-year programs give a certification of completion. An apprentice can additionally discover the necessary abilities as a lens, if she or he wants to put in the time. Apprenticeship programs will usually recognize any type of hrs worked as an apprentice.
A giving lens has a different emphasis. They concentrate on prescription eyeglasses and get in touch with lenses. They do not analyze the eye as well as their function is to offer information to clients about appropriate vision treatment. For the most part, a lens is not a qualified clinical doctor. Instead, they provide info to the general public regarding the treatment of their eyes and also their vision. Opticians might also be referred to as optometrists or ophthalmologists, which are medical professionals that specialize in eye diseases as well as conditions.
In the very early 19th century, glasses became popular as well as were originally made from European materials. In the mid-18th century, bifocal eyeglasses were introduced. They were at first utilized by Spanish missionaries, that imported them from Europe. After the American Revolution, the style for large round spectacles continued to advance. Some kinds were still marketed by taking a trip salesmen, and also they were referred to as “pince nez.” Various other styles of spectacles were based upon a selection of factors, consisting of color and design.
While eye doctors are certified to carry out routine eye checks, eye doctors are physicians that specialize in eye treatment as well as eye surgeries. As a matter of fact, eye doctors often perform eye surgical procedure. As a clinical doctor, they are certified to exercise medication and also surgical procedure, as well as can likewise prescribe eyeglasses and also contact lenses. They have extensive training in the area of medication and can carry out surgical procedure on a wide variety of conditions. optiker belp
While optometrists concentrate on eye treatment, they additionally treat other clinical conditions and detect visual problems. Optometrists have an additional doctorate in optometry, the Doctor of Optometry degree. Optometrists complete 4 years of professional education and learning, and may finish a 1 year optional residency. The American Academy of Ophthalmology claims that the variety of patients seeing eye doctors will certainly raise a little in 2020, yet will certainly be well below the number in the past years.

Cult of the River
The Cult of the River is a religious sect centered on the worship of the goddess Mira and the celestial body believed to be her domain: The River Without End. Founded by Munchkin and Gillikin halflings, the sect splintered from the duotheistic Old Faith when it renounced the goddess Phina and devoted itself entirely to the worship of one sister-goddess over the other.
The Cult is seen by most Edenians as extreme and in dire need of regulation, particularly with regard to their practice of ritualistic drowning, but they were recognized as an official religion by the Council of Five during the Second Age—and thereby granted all of the protections offered to such organizations. And though the five representatives who signed that proclamation are often derogatorily called the “Council of Corruption,” their ruling on the matter is recognized to this day.
As former Dhoshmorans themselves, River Cultists hold sacred the canonical tales “The Myth of Mother’s Rock” and “The Sisters and the Simulation.” Where they part ways with traditionalists, however, is in their belief that the goddess of chaos (Phina) has forsaken the land which bears her name, and that the only path to salvation is through Phina’s sister and opposing force: Mira.
As such, River Cultists live orderly lives where structure and discipline are valued above all else—to the point of fetishization. Everything in a River Cultist’s life is done on a schedule. Every part of their homes must be just so. And the development of relationships must adhere to a prescribed timeline.
Aside from their belief in the benefits of ritualistic drowning (about which see more below), River Cultists’ adoption of distorted versions of chivalry and courtly love are the characteristics for which they are best known.
As the popularity of “Riverism” grew, with refugees from the latest failed reality believing they might never get to go home again, the hardest objection for Cultist recruiters to overcome was “the whole drowning thing.”
Though many interested parties came from places where immersion in water was seen as a purifying act, none could quite get over the act of watching a person struggling for life as their head was held under water by a priest for minutes on end—not at first, at least.
And yet, Cultists had stories—stories of communing with the goddess Mira herself if one could hold one’s self still for long enough, if one could learn not to fight the river’s embrace—and these stories were intoxicating for people who felt as if all hope was lost in the purgatorial paradise they found themselves in. And so, like the waters of a river after a storm, the ranks of the Cult swelled and swelled.
