“Eight, nine, ten!!!” They all counted in unison, screaming together as a stocky troll with mottled grey skin downed a barrel of beer. A gorgeous elf with long straight red hair, pointed ears and green eyes more sparkling than emeralds hugged the trolls waist in excitement, her high pitched voice shrieking so loud that Max held his ears and gritted his teeth in discomfort.
Loud chatter, laughter, and the music of hundreds of fireflies buzzing together in song permeated the area. Small pixies were dancing around the firelight, the white glow emitting from their bodies were like disco lights that in combination with the red glow of the fire made the forest area appear like some underground rave.
There were elves, both male and female, with glowing white hair wearing barely anything other than ivy green leaves and the petals of roses, tulips and sunflowers. They danced in these revealing outfits moving to every change in the melody that the fireflies sung. They were mesmerising, so much so that Max couldn’t move his eyes away from the enticing sight. Not until Ghosts hands covered them and physically turned him around to face him.
“Don’t stare too long, you may never be able to look away again. Also they may be cheerful and festive now but if you’re not careful and they realise you’re a living human they’ll kill you in seconds.”
“What…why would they do that!?” Max was horrified.
“Why?” Ghost shrugged “Just because you are Human. In their eyes you are a member of a lower sub-species that like to flaunt their non-existent superiority. No matter how many Humans they have slayed in the past or how many wars Humans waged against each other they still continue to multiply and breed like crazy. Humans are pests in their eyes, that’s why they live in separate realms and pockets of space. You being here is like a fly coming into your home, they’d just love to swat you.”
“Then why did you bring me here if you knew it was going to be this dangerous?” Max hissed.
“Well you looked bored and cold and here it’s exciting and warm.” Ghost replied flippantly.
“That was your reason! Omg!! I’m gonna get killed. Why did I follow you? Damn it”
“Oi Oi calm down,”Ghost whispered into his ear, “If you keep shoutin’ you’ll draw unnecessary attention.” Hearing him say that Max immediately went quiet.
“Don’t worry you’ll be safe as long as you’re with me. It’s not just in my name, I’m a ghost as well, you know that. As long as you stay near me they’ll think the same. They don’t bother with the likes of me. So just sit back and relax. Here take some Valeer and calm down.” He offered Max a small glass bottle that contained a swirling green liquid. Max looked at the bottle dubiously, “Don’t worry it’s harmless tonic, actually it’s really good for living Humans. One bottle of this can increase your lifespan by five years and it removes all the filth from your body. Drink enough of this and you could live to 500 and still look like you’re in your 20’s.” Ghost goaded Max.
Was this really so magical? Max was surprised and filled with wonder, so he put the warm bottle to his lips, only sipping a small amount, however he soon found himself tipping the entire thing down his throat. It was delicious. He felt it melt into his mouth and flow down into his stomach where it evaporated. He then felt the steam it transformed into infiltrating his bones and muscles. He felt energised like he’d been shot by electricity. It was such a glorious taste that he drank until there wasn’t a drop left.
“I want more.” He panted, grabbing on to the collar of Ghosts orange jumpsuit and eagerly begging him.
Ghost chuckled at his reaction. “Whoa you are really becoming an addict. If you drink too much you’ll feel so sick tomorrow because of all the filth in your body being forcibly ejected. And 17 years of filth isn’t small, you’ll be on the toilet for a month.”
“I don’t care I want more.”
“Okay then. Well there are more barrels over there, right next to the trolls, if you’re desperate enough have a drinking match with them. If you’re man enough to do it, but just so you know if they smell your breathe they’ll end you.”
“I don’t care.” Max didn’t know why he was saying such brazen things but he felt like he couldn’t live without it. He saw an amused smile curl up on Ghosts face, and as he turned and ran towards those large barrels he heard Ghost mutter, “I didn’t think he’d have such a reaction, this is way too fun.”
Max wasn’t in the right mentality to care about Ghost’s words, he had already jumped onto a barrel and was glugging down the green drink. He felt his mind go blank.
The trolls, fairies, and elves around him got more excited at his actions. They spoke in words that he couldn’t understand but if he could make an educated guess they were probably saying, “Look at that Ghost go. Whoa he’s really going for it. He’s drinking so fast. Awesome!!!”
Max didn’t have time to revel in their shock and excitement, he’d already fully immersed himself in the barrel of Valeer. He had literally jumped into it head first, his clothes getting soaked. He felt that he’d drank ten times his natural limit. He was drowning in this unnatural drink. Max wanted to drink this until he burst and after finishing his second barrel he was about to move onto a third one when he felt someone pick him up and hoist him over their shoulder. It was Ghost.
Max screamed and beat his fists against his back in protest but it was like he was hitting a steel wall. Unable to resist Max was carried away from the festivities. As he looked up he saw the fire and the white lights dwindle in the distance and when he next looked up they were out of the forest and in the Park.
The sun was shining high in the sky.

It is an attractive old village filled with restaurants serving Savoy specialties and is conveniently just a short gondola ride away from Courchevel 1850. Courchevel 1550 and Courchevel Le Praz 1300 and La Tania are charming and peaceful resorts nestled between fir and pine woods. Skiers are spoilt for choice as the Les Trois Vallées area offers extensive and varied terrain across its 5 resorts.

This week at the movies, we’ve got a wonderful wizard (Oz the Great and Powerful, starring James Franco and Mila Kunis) and a pair of avengers (Dead Man Down, starring Noomi Rapace and Colin Farrell). What do the critics have to say?
Few films could hope to match the influence and popularity of The Wizard of Oz, so it was probably a wise move for director Sam Raimi to forge a different path down the Yellow Brick Road with Oz the Great and Powerful, a prequel to the 1939 classic. Whether he was successful is a different matter; some critics find this Oz to be a witty visual phantasmagoria, while others say it suffers from so-so storytelling and inconsistent performances. James Franco stars as a roguish carnival magician who finds himself transported to a magical world. There, he meets a trio of witches and is treated like a king. Can our hero summon the courage and smarts to bring peace to the land of Oz? The pundits say that while Oz the Great and Powerful is often entertaining and always fun to look at, its plot is relatively bland and surprisingly short on magic. (Check out our interviews with Raimi and the stars of Oz, as well as this week’s Total Recall, in which we count down star Michelle Williams’s best-reviewed movies.)
Buoyed by the success of the Swedish version of The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, director Niels Arden Oplev and star Noomi Rapace re-team for the neo-noirish crime thriller Dead Man Down. Unfortunately, critics say it’s a cut blow their previous collaboration; while the fine cast keeps the movie watchable throughout, it’s is weighted down by absurd plot twists and a slack pace. Seeking revenge for the murder of his wife and child, Victor (Colin Farrell) infiltrates a criminal organization with the intention of killing the boss. However, Victor’s also being blackmailed by a mysterious woman (Rapace), who needs his help to settle a score of her own. The pundits say Rapace and Farrell are compelling, but Dead Man Down is too ponderous and clichéd to work as a whole.(Check out Rapace’s Five Favorite Films here.)
The Silence, a thriller about a pair of eerily similar crimes that haunt the residents of a small German town, is at 100 percent.
Electrick Children, a coming-of-age drama about a sheltered teenager who flees her family for the big city, is at 83 percent.
The Romanian drama Beyond The Hills, about a young woman who attempts to convince a childhood friend to leave her orthodox religious community, is at 81 percent.
Michel Gondry‘s The We and the I, a comedy about a diverse group of high school students on a bus home from the last day of school, is at 80 percent.
Greedy Lying Bastards, a documentary about corporate and political resistance to climate change legislation, is at 80 percent.
Don’t Stop Believin’: Everyman’s Journey, a concert doc about the venerable hard rock group and its new singer, is at 68 percent.
The Monk, starring Vincent Cassel in a gothic fantasy about a friar who gives in to temptation after meeting a newcomer to the monastery, is at 67 percent.
The ABCs of Death, a horror anthology featuring a scary short for each letter of the alphabet, is at 48 percent.
Emperor, starring Tommy Lee Jones and Matthew Fox in a period drama about the United States’ post-World War II Occupation of Japan, is at 41 percent.
Gut Renovation, a documentary about the gentrification of Brooklyn, is at 29 percent.
Finally, props to Matthew Reimer for coming the closest to guessing The Last Exorcism Part II‘s 14 percent Tomatometer.

April 20 was the deadline in the online vote to select the best pieces of music written in 2019 by Lithuanian composers. Shrî by Egidija Medekšaitė came out as the listeners’ choice with 10,813 votes. This earned the composer, based in England, a vacation in the Composers’ Guest House in Druskininkai.
A total of 87 compositions written by Lithuanian composers and representing different genres, from miniatures to large-scale and interdisciplinary pieces, had been submitted for the competition. Following the vote, the jury presented the all-female list of winners in five categories bringing to the fore the composers who have been inspiring Lithuanian and international audiences for many years already. The only male winner, the original and unpredictable artist, took the young composer’s prize.
The award ceremony was conducted online, yet the prizes are no less valuable. Composers and musicologists have extended their congratulations, in written form, to all the winners. They include insights, sincere emotions and well-wishing.
LIKE GORGEOUS EXOTIC BIRDS
Composer Rita Mačiliūnaitė, who lives in Lithuania, took the prize in the category of stage music for her dance opera Amžinybė Ir Viena Diena (Eternity and one day). The production of the Lithuanian National Opera and Ballet Theatre was directed by Itzik Galili who also took other roles in the project, including those of choreographer, poet and set, costume and light designer.
Beata Baublinskienė, musicologist and head of the jury, congratulates the winner:
“In the annual musical panorama, stage pieces often emerge as gorgeous exotic birds; they are rare, yet usually they stand out due to their otherness. They differ in the very nature of music too, because a stage piece does not end when compositional ideas are brought to fruition; the end result depends on the intentions of the whole creative team.
One of the considerable challenges that Rita Mačiliūnaitė needed to cope with while writing music for the dance opera, was the need to reconcile two different genres as the music had to be fit for both dancing and singing. As an author of several chamber and dance operas, the area she had entered more than ten years ago, she had had considerable experience and set of skills. In addition to that, her intrinsically theatrical nature has helped her to produce music that lies in line with her compositional style, yet is grander in scale, the music for the big stage.
Her artistic collaboration with choreographer, director, set designer and poet Itzik Galili has borne an unconventional fruit of mixed-genre type. The Eternity and One Day raises more questions than it gives answers. Yet from the present-day perspective, wasn’t this piece, laden with semitones, poetic allegories and inexpressible longing, a presentiment of the spiritual disarray the world has recently been experiencing?”
MUSIC WORKS AS A MAGNET
In the category of orchestral pieces, the prize went to Žibuoklė Martinaitytė, the US-based composer who earned important awards in the early 2020 too. Her Sielunmaisema for cello and string orchestra enjoyed its premiere performance 20 June 2019 at a music festival in Klaipėda and was played by Mindaugas Bačkus and Klaipėda Chamber Orchestra conducted by Hartmut Rohde.
Eglė Gudžinskaitė, musicologist and member of the jury, congratulated the composer:
“The music written by Žibuoklė Martinaitytė during the last decade works as a magnet.
The horizons shining in blue, the harmonic depths sunken in blueish haze, the sound clusters pouring out in impressionist shades – these descriptions are merely a hopeless attempt to outline the hypnotic impact that pervades you both in the concert venue, where her music first reaches you, and while repeatedly listening to the recordings. It is no wonder, then, that premier performances of each and every piece by Žibuoklė Martinaitytė have recently become the must-attend events. Over the past several years, she earned several international honours, including two gold prizes at the Global Music Awards in 2019 where she was named the best composer, while her In Search of Lost Beauty… came first in the best album category. Just a couple of weeks ago, she was granted a highly prestigious scholarship by the Guggenheim Foundation, which supports internationally acclaimed artists.
Likewise, it is not surprising that both of her pieces submitted for the last year’s competition run by the Lithuanian Composers’ Union, came strong leaders after the votes of the jury had been counted. More to that, they would both make it into the top five of 2019! Her Sielunmaisema, a meditative four-part dreamy voyage across the soundscapes of memory, was named the best orchestral piece, yet I dare say her Saudade, a symphonic composition of enthralling melancholic nostalgy, was a similarly strong candidate for the top spot.
The blue period of her music, something she often mentions in articles, discussions and annotations, also reveals itself beautifully in all related images, such as photographs, cover of her CD and even details of style, let alone her name, the Lithuanian word for liverleaf. Žibuoklė (Violet) is the flower in the most spectacular blossom.”
THE POETIC SONG OF THE MOON
Composer Diana Čemerytė, who lives in Germany, was awarded the prize as the author of the best chamber instrumental piece titled Mondgesang (Moon song) and dedicated to her mother. It appears on Mondgesänge für Blockflöte und Akkordeon, the composer’s first CD released by Genuin Classics in 2019 and recorded by flutist Sabine Ambos and accordionist Mirjana Petercol.
Teisutis Makačinas, composer and the president of the LATGA Association, the financial supporter of the competition, sends his congratulations to the winner:
“The LATGA Association, which brings together and represents Lithuanian authors, keeps a close eye on creative activity by supporting, among other things, composition and distribution of new music. We are proud to be the long-standing supporters of the competition to select best new pieces, the event particularly important to our cultural life. The composers are active, the harvest is plentiful, so we express them our gratitude and appreciation – waiting for their new works.
I have been assigned a pleasant mission of congratulating, in virtual mode, composer Diana Čemerytė, who is the author of Mondgesang, the best piece for instrumental ensemble, and a well-known name on the international stage. My mission is even more pleasant due to the fact that Diana Čemerytė started her impressive composer’s career as a student of the Vilnius Juozas Tallat-Kelpša Conservatory, where I was teaching composition and counterpoint back then. I wish a great success in your creative aspirations!“
GRAND, BOUNDLESS, NEVERENDING MUSIC
Composer Justė Janulytė, who lives in Italy, won the prize in the category of vocal and choral music with her Now I’m Nowhere, the piece which was first performed by the Estonian National Male Choir, directed by Mikk Üleoja, 16 November 2019 in Tallinn.
Here is what Asta Pakarklytė, musicologist and head of the Lithuanian Music Information Centre, wrote about it:
“Now I am nowhere, but I would like to find myself in the north,” wrote Lithuanian poet Alfonsas Nyka-Niliūnas whose verses inspired Justė Janulytė. The north is perfectly appropriate, but her music could get you to a variety of other places too, including desert, ocean, Chernobyl, star, cosmic nebula, and gigantic rumble of empty spaces. It could be any place, where her music usually transports you. It is where one experiences only consistency, space, weight, power and intensity rather than specific parts and details. It is where one encounters the matters and dimensions that frighten and can be dangerous; they overwhelm you because you are barely capable of grasping and matching them.
Such things bring awe and wonder, yet they simultaneously dampen down and make you weary, because they require still observation or else you will inevitably miss something. This makes you nervous, because you cannot switch the other mode or turn away or else you will miss out completely without ever experiencing this in full.
In other words, Justė Janulytė’s music is grand, almost in classical Kantian description. It is not even beautiful, because, in the philosopher’s point of view, beauty is related to certain forms and distinct qualities, while grand is something limitless, never ending and related to serious acts of imagination. Beauty, according to Kant, enforces the feeling of vitality, while grandness stifles vitality in order to make it burst out later, when everything comes to an end. Thinking along these lines, Kant concludes that the things as such, especially those created by a man, are not grand, yet they help to convey the grandness, because it is our imagination that creates the sensation of grandness. And this is precisely what Justė Janulytė’s music does. It activates human imagination and, ostensibly, this is the reason it enjoys such a great success internationally.“
LONGING FOR SPIRITUALITY, TENDERNESS AND LOVE
Shrî by composer Egidija Medekšaitė has been voted by the jury the best electroacoustic and interdisciplinary piece.
Linas Paulauskis, musicologist and the member of the jury, extended his congratulations:
“How many composers in the world base the structures of their pieces on textile patterns? And, the other way round, how many of them weave following the music they had created? Fewer than few? And what about those who combine it all with the laws of Indian ragas? Fewer still?
Egidija Medekšaitė is such a unique artist, a professional composer and textile designer. Her Shrî for string quartet and pre-recorded strings was written in 2019 and enjoyed its debut performance in September by Apartment House Ensemble during the Totally Thames Festival held in a mysterious underground venue inside the Tower Bridge in London accessible after a five-minute descend by the old staircase.
For Egidija Medekšaitė this type of music is no exception. On the one hand, it is likewise closely tied to textile patterns; on the other, its harmony is based on the mode of the Shrî Raga, which is related to Shiva, the Indian god of destruction. Moreover, it is linked to several emotions and states of mind, such as lethargy, melancholy, loneliness and segregation. The raga may also be associated with the time of day, the evening prayer. In addition to that, it speaks about the longing for spirituality, tenderness and love, the composer says.
What is it that helps artists to predict just what we all experience right now?”
THE EXPANDED CONCEPT OF NORMALITY
Andrius Šiurys, the creator of academic, electroacoustic, and applied music for theatre and cinema, received the prize as the best young composer.
Ramūnas Motiekaitis, composer and member of the jury, wrote:
“Somebody knocks on the door at the Music Academy and the Composers’ Union. Somebody is placed under suspicious observation for a number of years in order to establish whether he or she is of the same breed. Somebody is quickly accepted, climbs on a pedestal and becomes a symbol of national pride at a very young age. Somebody walks in the backstage and plays with shadows. Somebody always feels restless and lives in several homes and for that reason is considered too versatile and unreliable, or perhaps vice versa – open, playful and creative.
Whenever you come across a less familiar name of composer, google it and then head to the SoundCloud. (Is there any other suitable place? Those who wish to exist need to be there.) The service offers a number of categories, including electroacoustic, ambient, dreams, contemporary, chillout, triphop, dream pop, storytelling, orchestral, clics, break beats, post dubstep, ambient psychodelic, dark ambient, easy listening and so on. Who own them? A person or a socio-stylistic conglomerates? Well, this is not very important nowadays. How many of these styles are known to us, members of the Lithuanian Composers’ Union, who are expected to present verdicts?
We listen. The unbelievable combination of styles brings together alternative and academic music, the one we are more familiar with. Strong and convincing theatricality, electronic music and meticulously written sheet music –all this applies to the young composer whom we wish to give our award to and who, a competent dweller of the universe of alternative music, has approached our circle and enriched us. I remember a stinging question I was once asked long ago, when I was young, “Are you capable of writing normal music?” I wish to believe that by giving this prize to Andrius Šiurys we acknowledge that the concept of normality in music has expanded and that this has happened precisely because of the composers like himself.”

National Theatre, London
Jane Eyre is one of my favourite books, but I’ve been bitterly disappointed by most film and theatre adaptations, despairing of directors who interpret Jane as quiet and reserved. Thank goodness then for this collaboration between the National Theatre and Bristol’s Old Vic, devised by the company, which is by far the best I have ever seen.
It’s a dynamic interpretation, eschewing the rigid formula of a period drama, in favour of a more holistic view of the novel. This makes for a surprisingly faithful telling of the narrative: free from the confines of a naturalistic set and strict chronology, director Sally Cookson has created space for Jane’s whole story to be centre stage.
The set is functional: a series of wooden boards and platforms linked by steps and ladders. It works, each of the locations rendered believable by the way in which the actors interact with it. This is a very physical production, with actors hurtling up and down and all around. With less assured direction it could all seem chaotic; in these hands, it’s a lively, energetic delight, with all Jane’s feisty, angry, raging spirit spilling out over the stage.
Madeleine Worrall, as Jane, embodies that spirit perfectly, and Melanie Marshall’s musical Bertha, dressed in red and looming large throughout Jane’s life, is truly glorious: Jane’s inner self writ large, demanding both our attention and our care.
There is humour too. Craig Edwards’ Pilot is a triumph of physical theatre: a huge, enthusiastic, bounding dog brought convincingly to life. Laura Elphinstone’s Adele is equally engaging, a needy, sweet and funny child, just desperate for love.
But this is ensemble theatre, and the whole cast work together well. I can’t do justice here to the breadth of ideas sewn so seamlessly into this play. It’s an imaginative, exciting and innovative piece of theatre, breathing fresh life into a tale I thought I knew too well.
Do try to catch it if you can.

Intrinsic features of formats used in high-throughput process development (HTPD) studies of chromatography steps can influence results. Theoretical analysis of the mass transfer rate limiting step during adsorption of proteins on different types of chromatography resins reveal that effects related to different hydrodynamic conditions occurring when different HTPD formats are used can lead to systematic deviation from results obtained at relevant scale. These effects can be minimized by choosing a right format for the screening studies based on a the proposed high throughput format maps.

The cost of college, which is already a stretch for many families, would increase substantially if President Donald Trump’s proposed federal budget took effect.
The Trump budget, released Tuesday, proposes more than $143 billion in cuts for student loans and student aid over 10 years, beginning in fiscal 2018. The proposed cuts for that year alone total more than $4 billion. Congress, of course, is in charge of the budget, deciding on what gets cut and what gets added but the president’s proposal, being the first out of the gate, could have some impact.(Related: Who’s to Blame for the Rise in Student Loan Debt and Defaults?)
The Trump budget reduces student loan assistance in several ways:
- It eliminates government subsidized loans, which account for about $1 trillion of the $1.4 trillion student loans outstanding. As a result, interest on those loans would begin to accrue as soon as the money is borrowed and continue to accrue during the six months after graduation, a period during which the government currently pays the interest.
- It eliminates the Public Service Loan Forgiveness program, which allows graduates who work in government at any level — federal, state or local — or in tax-exempt not-for-profit organizations to have their loans forgiven after 120 payments, provided they work for a qualified employer during that time.
- It creates a single income-driven repayment (IDR) plan from the five that exist now. Repayments would equal 12.5% of discretionary income over 15 years for students who were enrolled in undergraduate programs and 12.5% of discretionary income over 30 years for those who were enrolled in graduate programs. After those time periods the remaining balance would be forgiven.
Under the most generous repayment programs currently, REPAYE and PAYE, undergraduates pay 10% of discretionary income for 20 years before forgiveness and graduate students pay 10% for 20 or 25 years. Graduate students would end up paying more under the Trump proposal, but all students could end up with bigger bills because caps on monthly payments would be eliminated, according to Mark Kantrowitz, publisher of Cappex.com, a free web site focusing on college admissions and financial aid.
- It eliminates the Federal Supplemental Education Opportunity Grants given to colleges for needy low-income college students. Grants range between $100 and $4,000 a year, but about half of undergraduates receive $500, according to Kantrowitz.
- It “significantly” reduces funds for the Federal Work-Study program, according to the budget, by cutting the number of eligible students in half and reducing payments.
- It makes Pell Grants, which provide tuition aid for low-income students, available year-round rather than in the fall and spring but it ends the inflation adjustment provision for these grants.
The Trump budget is “a recipe for less affordable college, more student debt and more inequality,” says Lauren Asher, president of The Institute for College Access & Success, a research nonprofit and policy organization dedicated to making college more affordable and debt more manageable.
“Overall it removes billions of dollars from programs that help students offset college costs and limit the need to borrow in the first place. And for many students it makes it harder for them to repay.”
For example, according to Asher, teachers who typically have $44,200 in student loan debt (if they have a master’s degree) and a starting salary of $36,100 may pay twice as much (an additional $50,000 under the proposed IDR plan with a 30-year repayment period for graduate debt than if they had 15 years to repay, and more than three and a half times more (over $70,000 more) than under the current Public Service Loan Forgiveness program, which requires only 10 years of payments.

Gunpowder, also known as black powder to distinguish it from modern smokeless powder, is the earliest known chemical explosive. It consists of a mixture of sulfur (S), charcoal (C), and potassium nitrate (saltpeter, KNO3). The sulfur and charcoal act as fuels while the saltpeter is an oxidizer. Because of its incendiary properties and the amount of heat and gas volume that it generates, gunpowder has been widely used as a propellant in firearms, artillery, rockets, and fireworks, and as a blasting powder in quarrying, mining, and road building.
Gunpowder was invented in 9th-century China and spread throughout most parts of Eurasia by the end of the 13th century. Originally developed by the Taoists for medicinal purposes, gunpowder was first used for warfare about 904 AD.Gunpowder is classified as a low explosive because of its relatively slow decomposition rate and consequently low brisance. Low explosives deflagrate (i.e., burn) at subsonic speeds, whereas high explosives detonate, producing a supersonic wave.
Ignition of gunpowder packed behind a projectile generates enough pressure to force the shot from the muzzle at high speed, but usually not enough force to rupture the gun barrel. Gunpowder thus makes a good propellant, but is less suitable for shattering rock or fortifications with its low-yield explosive power. However, by transferring enough energy (from the burning gunpowder to the mass of the cannonball, and then from the cannonball to the opposing fortifications by way of the impacting ammunition) eventually a bombardier may wear down an opponent's fortified defenses.
Gunpowder was widely used to fill fused artillery shells (and used in mining and civil engineering projects) until the second half of the 19th century, when the first high explosives were put into use. Gunpowder is no longer used in modern weapons, nor is it used for industrial purposes, due to its relatively inefficient cost compared to newer alternatives such as dynamite and ammonium nitrate/fuel oil. Today gunpowder firearms are limited primarily to hunting, target shooting, and bulletless historical reenactments.

I may have answered my own question on where to buy black powder so I'll offer up a source I have used in the past when I was an active competitor in the BPCR game. When shooting long range black powder cartridge rifle in the nineties, I used to go through a lot of Goex cartridge grade powder...

When you celebrate the complementary worlds of visual art and music, you affirm the creative energies of the two most universal forms of expression. That is the heartbeat of Street of Clans 2019. Beginning this Friday and lasting throughout the weekend, the festival will unfold along Bukit Pasoh Road in a splendour of interactive design installations, workshops and community-centric activities, anchored around the themes of kinship and unity.
There will also be an exclusive, Bandwagon-curated lineup of musicians, as well as Zouk-enlisted DJs, that will be soundtracking the proceedings all weekend long. Find who they are and why you should be very, very excited, below.
With his quivering earthquake of a baritone and devastating sense of poetry, Shak is a storyteller with considerable gifts.

As a vital voice in the larger tapestry of Made In Singapore music, he guarantees that his set will be more than worth your attention and time.
Shak will perform on Friday, 8 March, from 6-7pm.
Che’Molly’s versatile style and keen eye for adapting to the crowds’ preferences are just two of the many reasons why she is one of the most sought after EDM DJs in Asia. Having commanded the decks at many high profile venues such as Bali’s Cocoon Beach Bar, UK’s Rum Club and Zouk Singapore, you’ll know that she’ll light the streets on fire with super-massive hits.
Che’Molly will perform on Friday, 8 March, from 8-10pm.
In January this year, this Singaporean chanteuse and songwriter released her debut single 'Comfort & Shelter'. The song is an unheralded revelation.

In the meantime, watch her unravel her gifts live.

Entrusted as he is with spreading the power and gospel of rap and R&B from the console of one of the world's best clubs, there should be no doubt he'll unleash his body-blasting firepower during his set.
DJ Nashd will perform on Saturday, 9 March, from 8-10pm.
Get ready to be entranced by the smooth vocals of Sam Driscoll as he croons both original cuts and covers. He made his debut with 2016’s single ‘So Tired’ and followed up with two singles this year, ‘Call It A Day’ and ‘Stupid Man Blues’, both of which boast his diverse musical influences.

Travelers of India, unite! It’s winter season, aka, the best time to travel around the country. If you are Team Delhi on the lookout for a relaxing break, but are not up to inhaling recycled in-flight air and dealing with fog related delays, this is the list for you. Hire a cab and take a road trip (the best kind of trips in our opinion!) to one of the destinations on this list. Even if you’ve been there before, these places are so multifaceted that you are sure to always find something new to experience, see, buy or eat!
Let’s turn the ignition on this list, shall we?
For the history & culture lover:
- Jaipur –
Can anyone ever get enough of Jaipur? Not only is the city an absolute visual treat, the Delhi to Jaipur cab fare is reasonable . A five-hour drive is all it takes to get to the pink city that greets you with the splendor of a time gone by. Once you are done with the forts, the mahals and the temples, take a walk around the city streets for lesser known treasures and experiences.
Expert Tip: Don’t hesitate to go off the guide book and try some local food stores for a culinary experience you will never forget!
- Hastinapur –
Why does this name sound so familiar? Because we grew up listening to stories of how it was the capital city of the Pandava’s! Yes, this is that very Hastinapur that plays a prominent part in the Mahabharata. But don’t take a chariot there, book a cab instead. At 135 kms, this will be a quick drive to witness the grand architecture and listen to the riveting tales of an era long gone.Expert Tip: Make sure you stop by the Hastinapur Wildlife Sanctuary for spectacular sightings of over 117 bird species along with a wide range of mammals including the Ganges river dolphin, of course, if you are lucky!
- Alwar –
Here’s a place you can visit if you don’t want that traditional touristy experience. If a slow paced, relaxing holiday around visiting heritage havelis, enjoying the winter sun, exploring the colorful local markets and gorging on Alwar ka mawa sounds like your style, take a look into this town. Nestled in the Aravali hills, this town is also very close to some brilliant wildlife sanctuaries that can plan on visiting if time permits. More information on those spots in the next section!
Expert Tip: Alwar is one of the few places in the country that make living like royalty accessible to all. Check out their palace stays that are surprisingly affordable and enjoy the weekend like a royal!
For the wildlife & nature over:
- Shimla –
Head to Shimla for mesmerizing views, clean mountain air and an incredible landscape that will warm your heart! Shimla in the winter turns into a wonderland that enjoys snow in December & January. What is it about plummeting temperatures that makes food and shopping that much more enjoyable? Don’t just read about it, book that car and head over to Shimla this winter. And don’t forget to schedule some time for kufri to try your hand at skiing and some trekking.Expert Tip: Ensure that you avail a Delhi to Shimla car rental with an experienced driver.
- Sariska Tiger Reserve –
If you are looking forward to getting away from the stress-inducing concrete jungle and into a stress-busting real one, Sariska is a good bet. Go on an early morning safari and see if you are one of the lucky ones of the day to spot a majestic Tiger. You can also catch glimpses of peacocks, deer, jackal, boars and more along the area of the sanctuary that includes stretches of rocky terrains, grasslands and dry deciduous forests.
Expert Tip: In case you are planning to visit Alwar, you can club the two since Sariska is only a quick 40 kms away.
Bharatpur Bird Sanctuary –
- The winter season sees thousands of migratory birds descend on Keoladeo National Park, formerly known as Bharatpur Bird Sanctuary. Explore the park on foot, cycle through the area or hire a vehicle to get the full experience of a unique sanctuary. Find ancient temples inside and get to feed tortoises that are over 250 years old!Expert Tip: Carry binoculars since birds can be shy and spotting them from a distance is sometimes the only option.
Hope this list gave you some ideas to have some new adventures or rekindled the desire to revisit some old favorites that have been forgotten. Either way, happy travelling!

The Star Wars Books Panel at C2E2 was a flurry of insights, laughs, and a lot of love for that galaxy far, far away. Del Rey Senior Editor Elizabeth Schaefer moderated the panel and had each of the Star Wars authors present introduce themselves, some of their Star Wars work, and share their favorite scene from The Force Awakens.
Claudia Gray, author of Lost Stars and the upcoming Bloodline, named the one with “the James Bond cameo,” referring to a certain Jedi Mind trick as her favorite scene. Next to her, by the time John Jackson Miller went through all his Star Wars writing credits (which include Kenobi, A New Dawn, and Knight Errant) as well as mentioned his current work in Star Trek books, he’d forgotten to include his favorite TFA scene. He later added that it was seeing the words “Episode VII” on the screen because for so long “we never thought that’d happen.”
Adam Bray, author of Star Wars Everything You Need to Know and Ultimate Star Wars, shared he’s writing a new Lego Star Wars book that will come with its own minifig. Bray told the fairly packed room that his favorite moment in The Force Awakens was when Rey grabbed the lightsaber, a sentiment several in the audience showed their agreement on. Rounding out the panel was Jeffrey Brown, author/cartoonist of humorous books that include Darth Vader and Son and Vader’s Little Princess as well as a Jedi Academy series. Brown said he really enjoyed Finn’s character so pretty much any scene with Finn was his favorite.
Schaefer went on to thank fans for helping The Force Awakens novelization by Alan Dean Foster reach the best-seller’s list and teased those who haven’t read it yet with bits of info they can learn via the book that weren’t in the movie. From there they went through some of the upcoming titles for Del Rey. The next of their books to come out will be the aforementioned Bloodline by Claudia Gray, which goes on sale May 3rd. With Claudia being a part of the panel, more info was shared about this book and the process of writing it than any other.
You may remember Bloodline was pushed back two months from its original release date. Gray mentioned that this was because she thought it might be a good idea to see The Force Awakens before she finished writing a book that leads into the story of The Force Awakens. Luckily for her (and probably us as well, as much as we hate waiting), the publishers agreed. The previews for the book have already told us that Leia Organa is a central figure to the story, but Gray emphasized that it’s not a focus on Leia being a wife and mother, but who Leia is as a person and her role in the New Republic and how the Resistance came to be.
More tidbits about writing the book would come out in the audience Q&A, when she talked about wanting to be only told from the new movies what was absolutely necessary for her to tell this story – meaning Han and Leia’s situation and who Ben was. She warned that this book is not all about what happened to Ben; she half-joked that the story group wanted to save something for the movies. The info was mainly for her to keep in mind while writing. During the Q&A question about stories by other authors she revealed he pulled something described in Ann Crispin’s Han Solo Trilogy into Bloodline. And later on the convention floor Gray told fans that she’d cast Tom Hiddleston in her head as she was writing one of the book’s new characters, Casterfo.
On July 19th Aftermath: Life Debt by Chuck Wendig will be out. Elizabeth shared that this book picks up with the unlikely team that came together in the first Aftermath book whose decision to go hunt Imperials gets interrupted by a request from Princess Leia. Han Solo has one last debt to repay and that one is to Chewbacca. Those two are off on the Kashyyyk mission, an idea introduced in one of the previous book’s interludes.
A brand new book was also announced: Star Wars: Catalyst, a prequel to the movie Rogue One would be coming out this fall. Much more couldn’t be shared at this time, but they did (jokingly) say presumably it will be written by an author.
The audience question and answer portion started with a question regarding whether we’ll ever see the characters from Lost Stars appear again. I’ve personally lost count of how many people (myself included) said they were surprised in some way by that book – whether it was their preconceived notions about YA books or how the book was originally marketed, it’s blown past that and found wide appeal. I could hear people in line for the panel talking about it, and right before it started I heard a guy recommending it to the guy sitting next to him. Claudia Gray said she would like to write those characters again but nothing is currently in the works. She advised that the best way to see another story with them is to let publishers like Del Rey know that you’d like more. She also mentioned that when she was writing Bloodline she needed a certain character and a group from Lost Stars had exactly who she needed.
When later asked about the freedoms she had while writing Lost Stars, Gray said since they knew from the start the story would center on original characters she in fact had a lot of freedom. She’d originally been given the direction of a star-crossed romance and a kind of Rosencrantz & Guildenstern Are Dead version of Star Wars, where we’d get to see more of what it was like for side characters to experience parts of the larger Star Wars story. As noted in her interview with Tricia Bar in Star Wars Insider #163, she was told to have an idealistic girl join the Rebels and a cynical guy join the Empire. She asked if they could flip it, having the girl join the Empire instead and they liked the idea. In fact the only push-back she really remembers getting was when she used the Devastator in a scene and was told by the story group that it wasn’t there. She thought it was an imaginary ship and therefore could go wherever but they informed her it was in fact not in that location at that time. Another interaction with the story group had a cool result. Gray said a scene she wrote towards the end of the book (being vague to keep it spoiler-free for those who haven’t read it yet) turned out to be so similar to a part of the Jakku history that, unbeknownst to her, they’d planned for The Force Awakens that she was told about it so she could slightly alter her scene to become a neat tie-in to the movie.
John Jackson Miller fielded a question about how writing in the Disney era of Star Wars is different than it was before as he was the author there with the most experience in both. Both John and the rest of the panel referred to now as the Story Group Era and spoke highly of how all the planning and extra input make for better overall storytelling. Miller also shared that early in Star Wars books, a lot of continuity between books came from authors liking each other’s concepts or characters and wanting to use them too. Now, he says, things are planned out way in advance and that means they’re able to tie-in characters and their stories through various media forms – an example being Rae Sloane, who Miller introduced in the novel A New Dawn, but who has also shown up at different stages of her career in a short story in Star Wars Insider, in the first Aftermath book, and a comic so far. Adam Bray added that for reference books like Ultimate Star Wars the editors assigned sections to the writers based on each author’s knowledge and strengths.
When asked which of his characters he’d like to sneak into the new canon, Miller quickly replied Zayne Carrick. He’d like there to be a Knights of the Old Republic cartoon series. And he wouldn’t mind if they used his book as a basis for another Star Wars movie for Ewan McGregor. He mentioned his love for The Griff as well and how fans made a life-size puppet of the character for him.
And when the panel was asked about how they create names, John Jackson Miller says he tries to keep them spelled how they sound. He also tries to have character names start with different letters from each other so they’re easier to keep track of. Claudia Gray incorporated the names of pretty much everyone she knows in Lost Stars so there are a lot of Mad Max: Fury Road references in Bloodline. Bray briefly talked about following previous naming conventions.
Another audience member wanted to know what the authors like about Star Wars. Miller likes that with The Force Awakens, Star Wars is funny again. He loves the back and forth and one-liners of the Original Trilogy and claims to reserve twenty pages in all his books for banter. Adam Bray said as a kid he always liked the droids and as an adult he likes discovering all the themes in the stories and how they repeat. Claudia likes seeing people do extraordinary things but still feel like real people.
There was also a question of where to start reading if you’ve watched The Force Awakens. The authors of course all recommend their own books so Elizabeth Schaefer recommended Bloodline or A New Dawn. But she emphasized that what’s nice with the new books is that you can start anywhere without having to have read a bunch of other books to understand what’s going on. She went on to say there are a lot of great stories in what’s now considered the Legends books and if someone wanted to start reading those, she would suggest the Thrawn Trilogy as a starting place.
Next an audience member asked what everyone’s favorite Star Wars story that they didn’t write is. Gray immediately noted the Thrawn Trilogy, and the Jedi Apprentice books with Obi-Wan. Schaefer jumped in saying she also liked the Jude Watson books. Meanwhile Miller enjoyed the Star Wars comics of the late 70s/early 80s by Archie Goodwin and David Michelinie. Bray chimed in that he likes the Zahn books, the Dark Horse Legacy comics, and really had a thing for the Ewok movies when he was a kid, revealing that the first Star Wars stories he wrote were fics about what he thought would happen with the Ewoks. Brown liked the comics too but holds a special place for The Wookiee Storybook.
One audience member wanted to know if we’d see Admiral Thrawn and Mara Jade in any of the new books. Gray said not in Bloodline, and Schaefer said there are no current plans for them but as a fan she hopes we can see them again some day.
The last question of the panel wondered if there was anything in Star Wars any of the authors would like to retcon. John Jackson Miller smiled and said he already did – refreshers are now bathroom. Someone in the audience yelled out “Nooooooooooo!” I couldn’t blame them as I’d grown accustomed to the word over many years. But Miller argued that that kind of naming convention comes from a time when stories played around with words to make common objects sound more science-fiction and this change makes it easier for new readers to understand. Claudia Gray said not only would she retcon the ending of A New Hope, but that she already has before in a fanfic. She dramatically exclaimed that you probably shouldn’t hang out in the same place for a few days to have an awards ceremony when you just blew up the Death Star.
Del Rey 2016 Sampler
And with that, the panel was done. At the Del Rey booth on the show floor copies of the 2016 Del Rey sampler book were given away. The Star Wars portion of this book includes the current Del Rey Star Wars timeline and an introduction from Elizabeth Schaefer as well as excerpts from Bloodline, The Force Awakens Novelization by Alan Dean Foster, Aftermath by Chuck Wendig, Battlefront: Twilight Company by Alexander Freed, and the short stories Bait by Alan Dean Foster, Inbrief by Janine K. Spendlove, and Blade Squadron and Blade Squadron: Zero Hour by David J. Williams and Mark S. Williams. You can pick it up at conventions where Del Rey has a booth this year. It will also be available as a free ebook at a later time.

2017 has been an incredible year. I’ve been lucky enough to have had the chance to shoot some awesome weddings the world over. The last 12 months have seen me blessed with shooting all over Australia, Auckland NZ, Detroit USA, Lake Michigan USA, Harbor Island Bahamas, Nuku’alofa Tonga, Uluwatu Bali, Changu Bali, Balian Beach Bali, Bridport UK, Christchurch UK, Hawaii USA & a heap more.
I’m forever grateful to all of my couples, my friends and my family for all of your / their support. 2018 is shaping up to be another epic year and I can’t wait to get stuck right into it.
Here’s a bit of a recap on what’s occurred over the last 12 months.

A collaborative effort between the Arizona Cancer Center and the National Cancer Institute (NCI) to understand the influence of diet on recurrence of colorectal adenomas (polyps) a precursor to cancer indicates that a high-fiber diet may be more important for men than women. Although the reason for a sex difference is unknown, researchers suggest that it may be related to hormonal effects or the difference between the sexes in location of polyp formation.
It has been well established that colorectal adenomas are a precursor to colon cancer. Prevention of these adenomas through dietary supplementation is a research focus at both the Arizona Cancer Center and the NCI. Large clinical trials performed at both centers failed to show protection from recurrent adenomas with dietary intervention. In fact, an association between dietary fiber and colorectal adenomas has never been firmly established due to equivocal results.
In collaboration with researchers from the NCI, Arizona Cancer Center members Elizabeth Jacobs, Ph.D.; Patricia Thompson, Ph.D.; Mar?a Elena Martinez, Ph.D.; and Arizona Cancer Center Director David S. Alberts, M.D. pooled the study populations from the two clinical intervention trials. With a new study population of more than 3,200 participants, Dr. Jacobs and her team detected a positive effect on dietary intervention for men, but not for women.
Detection of a sex difference may explain the discrepancy in results from previous studies. Further, identifying a real and significant relationship between dietary intervention and reduced risk of colorectal adenoma recurrence provides a possible preventative treatment option for men who have had colorectal adenomas.
More and more, we are understanding colorectal cancer as a disease that has different pathways, explains Dr. Jacobs. It is possible that these pathways to cancer vary to some degree depending on the sex of the patient. Therefore, while the mechanism by which fiber may act is not understood, it is plausible that it has different effects in men as opposed to women.
Results of this study were published earlier this year in the February 2006 issue of the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition.
The Arizona Cancer Center, the state s premier National Cancer Institute-designated comprehensive cancer center, is celebrating its 30th anniversary this year. With primary locations at the University of Arizona in Tucson and the Virginia G. Piper Cancer Center in Scottsdale, the Center has more than a dozen research and education offices distributed throughout the state and 250 physician and scientist members working to prevent and cure cancer.

Product Description for Pterodactyl Claw with Mammoth Ivory
Maker: Shane Taylor, M.S. (click to see more by this maker)
Item num: 88501
*** This is handmade and one-of-a-kind ***
Blade length: 2.20 in.
Total length: 5.38 in.
Blade height (at heel): 0.75 in.
Blade thickness (near bolster): 0.20 in.
Item weight: 3.70 oz.
Blade: Hand forged, differentially heat treated W2 carbon steel
Handle: Integral W2 carbon steel with mammoth ivory bark scales
Description: Mastersmith Shane Taylor's Bat Claw Fighters have long been among my favorite knife designs. The Pterodactyl Claw is a modification of his renowned Bat Claw, and incorporates a push dagger design. The sleek shape is exceptionally comfortable and maneuverable.
The W2 carbon steel blade was forged to shape and differentially heat treated using the traditional Japanese clay technique. This method results in a gently undulating transition line called a hamon. The hamon travels along both edges of the fully sharpened blade. The ricasso and tang have both been hammer textured for a very dramatic appearance, contrasting with the satin finish of the blade. Mammoth ivory bark scales complement the hammer texture of the metal and the handle fills the hand comfortably. Screws are hammer finished to match. The blade has a strong distal taper so as to bring the weight back into the handle. This knife is numbered 1015 (15th fixed blade of 2010). Exceptional work throughout!
