In what must be 1994 I was dragged on a summer trip to Coventry to take Granny to visit her family there. This was infinitely tedious for a teenager, but in an act of buying my placation my parents let me get a computer game (a real game on 3.5″ disks, none of this app nonsense), which was Fields of Glory. Not to be mistaken with the tabletop shenanigans of recent years, this was a Microprose take on the 100 days campaign. I had no idea what the 100 days campaign was, I’m not really sure I fully got who Napoleon was, but the picture on the back had cannons and cavalry, colourful uniforms – it was clearly very dashing and fighty and cool. Which essentially sums up my thoughts on wargaming Napoleonics in recent years – it looks amazing, the history is very cool, and basically there’s a really good reason someone wrote a whole lots of books about a Boy’s Own style character in this period; it oozes appeal. Yet I still don’t own a Napoleonic army. Actually that’s not true, I own some 6mm, having half heartedly tried it, and kind of stalled with numbers, and fiddlyness. Therein lies the mother of all reality checks. For all the childhood joy of checking the in-game encyclopaedia back in the day, I don’t really know much about Napoleonic troop types or uniforms – the computer rather coloured them in for me; and I played the British mainly with not very complex titles like ‘Heavy Cavalry’. There seems to be a great deal more history crammed in the Napoleonic wars than really seems fair, or maybe someone just really really needs to know what colour underpants Prussian landwehr wore, because then they are ahead in the historical minutae cup. Either way, despite having embraced other historical periods over the last 8 years, this was the step too far, too much detail, too intimidating.
At this point I had a revelation. Or rather I got bored of denying myself and decided I didn’t actually care if the wargames police came round about the colour of socks on my dragoons, this had to happen. 6mm was just a bit daunting, these detailed uniforms in ultra-small (they will be finished one day though), so 15 or 28mm. It seemed obvious: 15mm. Smaller, cheaper, can have detail but hide the most intricate bits. Then all this plastic 28mm stuff came out…. no, still too much painting, but it made me pause…they look so good. Then metal prices went up…it looked more appealing. Then I did a couple of other armies using this magic ‘dip’ thingy. Painting time was down, and the results were decent… damn. Indecision came back to paralyse the whole thing.
So 2014 came around and I happened to read an article in WSS magazine about their Ligny project. Building armies as a club towards an eventual refight. This seemed like a good idea…so I immediately turned it into what might be a very bad idea… With no prior experience let’s split forces as a club, do an army each and get it on in June next year. What scale…28mm, remember all those good reasons not to? Yep, well sod it, it looks pretty and it’s now cheaper than 15mm metal. Should we not start small and build up? Nope, boring and far too sensible. But what battle can include lots of different countries and be realistic to re-stage? Erm…. Leipzig had lots of countries right? Er, yeah, but it’s massive. Minor point, let’s do that…
So there we go. One year to build from scratch a 28mm Napoleonic force to form part of a re-fight of Leipzig (or part of it anyway) with a number of other gullible young fools from the club – what could possibly go wrong? Keeping that strictly rhetorical, this should in fact provide lots of interesting content for the blog as all manner of painting issues and premature mid-life crises are generated by the project. Should be fun!

A lot of wishy-washy, sentimental stuff has been said about the positive benefits of nature – stuff that we appreciate but often find a bit unsubstantial – but a new study gives some scientific support for that idea.
The preliminary results of a new study showed that feelings of awe can make people less self-centered and more generous. The study had subjects stare at our very own Valley Life Sciences Building and our eucalyptus grove. Those looking at our lovely trees reported more “humility, compassion and cooperation.”
In an urban environment like Berkeley, most people probably neglect to experience nature. This is why we love the fact that our school has areas dedicated to nature. It’s calming and apparently improves our willingness to cooperate.
Maybe all group projects should have a mandatory meeting in our eucalyptus grove? We could all sit in a circle, sing kumbaya and tree-hug our differences away.
Or imagine corporations having their offices in a building symbiotic with nature, complete with little capuchin monkeys delivering all memos? We know our productivity would rise just by being around awesome trees all day. This is our attempt to surreptitiously convince all of those Randian leaders of industry to plant a damn tree for once. read more »

Morning Roundup: Redbud Classic canceled as COVID-19 numbers climb
Redbud Classic canceled due to increasing COVID-19 cases
The Redbud Classic has been canceled due to rising COVID-19 cases in the state.
The Oklahoma City running event is normally held in April, but was postponed until Sept. 11-12 because of the pandemic. Now, there will be no Redbud Classic in 2021.
"The Redbud Classic made the very difficult decision to cancel this year’s in-person events in support of our medical partners in the community as COVID-19 cases continue to rise," said the Redbud Classic Board of Directors in a prepared statement.
"This decision was not made lightly but we hope to do our part in keeping our community safe and ensuring our hospitals, medical professionals and first responders are not overwhelmed due to COVID-19."
The Oklahoma City Police Athletic League is the beneficiary of the Redbud Classic. The event is scheduled to return in April 2022.

Saints choose Jameis Winston as starting QB, according to source
The New Orleans Saints have selected Jameis Winston to succeed Drew Brees as starting quarterback for their regular season opener against Green Bay on Sept. 12, said a person familiar with the decision.
The person spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity Friday because the club has not announced the result of its preseason competition for the starting QB job between Winston and Taysom Hill.
The decision, first reported by ESPN, means Winston is set to start his first regular season game since the end of the 2019 season with Tampa Bay.
The Buccaneers chose not to bring back Winston, who they drafted first overall in 2015, when they had an opportunity to sign former Patriots quarterback Tom Brady in the spring of 2020.
The Saints canceled their home preseason game set for Saturday against the Arizona Cardinals because of the potential for Hurricane Ida to batter Louisiana’s coast with wind as high as 140 mph by Sunday.
Louisville suspends basketball coach
The University of Louisville said Friday that it is suspending head basketball coach Chris Mack for six games for failing to follow procedures in handling an extortion attempt by one of his assistants.
Mack “failed to follow university guidelines, policies, and procedures in handling the matter,” Louisville athletics director Vince Tyra said in a news release.
Mack’s former assistant, Dino Gaudio, pleaded guilty in June to a federal charge of attempted extortion. Gaudio was sentenced in federal court Friday to probation and a $10,000 fine for the attempted extortion.
The university said it determined Mack was a victim of the attempted extortion.
Gaudio was dismissed from the team along with another assistant in March after the team missed the NCAA tournament.
Federal prosecutors said Gaudio, after learning he would be fired, threatened to go to the news media with alleged NCAA violations by the team. He asked for 17 months of salary or a $425,000 lump sum payment, according to the U.S. attorney.
WEST VIRGINIA: Bob Huggins has agreed to a two-year contract extension that includes the option for him to step aside as head basketball coach or continue coaching after the 2023-24 season. Under the agreement announced Friday, Huggins, who turns 68 next month, will earn $4.15 million in each of the next three seasons.

Ronaldo stuns soccer world with return to Manchester United
Cristiano Ronaldo is heading back to Manchester United, the team that turned him into a global superstar.
In a fast-moving deal that stunned the world of soccer, Ronaldo secured a return to Old Trafford on Friday — a day after telling Juventus he no longer wanted to play for the Italian club.
“Welcome back, Cristiano,” read a tweet posted by United. Within minutes, the club's official website had crashed.
Ronaldo is 36 years old, a completely different player to the skinny, outrageously skillful 17-year-old winger who first arrived at United from Sporting Lisbon in 2003 with a box of tricks but little end product.
In the following six years, he scored 118 goals in 292 appearances and swiftly became one of the most fearsome strikers in the world, winning the first of his five FIFA world player of the year awards.

Black driver to finally be celebrated by NASCAR for his victory

Buck Baker, who actually finished second, was declared the winner and received the trophy in a victory lane celebration. Race officials discovered hours after the race that Scott was the actual winner by a full two laps on the rest of the field. But he was not credited with the victory for another two years and his family has long pushed for a proper celebration.

Treating vision problems with Photorefractive Keratectomy (PRK) and LASIK
3 minute(s) read
Photorefractive keratectomy (PRK) is a type of refractive surgery. PKR uses a laser to treat vision problems caused by refractive errors, such as myopia(nearsightedness), hyperopia (farsightedness) and astigmatism. A refractive error occurs when eye does not refract (bend) light properly. Both PRK and laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) are laser surgery techniques used to help improving eyesight by modifying the cornea of the eyes. However, PRK and LASIK use different methods to reshape cornea tissue.
With PRK, the ophthalmologist takes away the top layer of the cornea, known as the epithelium by using a special brush, blade, laser or alcohol solution. The ophthalmologist then uses lasers to reshape the other layers of the cornea and fix any irregular curvature in the eye.
With LASIK, the ophthalmologist uses lasers or a tiny blade to create a small flap in the cornea. This flap is raised up then laser is used to reshape the cornea. The flap is lowered back down after the surgery is complete and the cornea repairs itself over the next few months.
Although both techniques have been widely used, LASIK might be considered superior procedure since it causes less pain, fewer eye irritation or discomfort and other postoperative complications with a quicker recovery time. In addition, patients undergoing LASIK are more likely to experience less halos around lights and their vision can return to normal faster, compared to PRK.
Who is an appropriate candidate for LASIK?
To undergo LASIK, patients are required to meet certain criteria and conditions. To determine whether you are a good candidate, a comprehensive eye examination must be conducted. Tests includes:
- Visual acuity
- The overall health of the eyes
- Measurements of the cornea e.g. curvature, thickness and refractive error
- Pupil size
- Wavefront analysis to detect optical irregularities of the visual system that contribute to visual quality.
Despite LASIK remains the most commonly performed visual refractive surgery, nonetheless, there remain selected situations in which PRK may be preferable.
To undergoing LASIK, patients need to meet these basic requirements:
- People aged over 18 when vision is more likely to have stopped changing.
- Eye prescription should not have changed in the last year.
- LASIK is generally not advisable in patients who are pregnant or breastfeeding.
- Corneas need to be healthy with the absence of corneal abrasions or disease, such as Age-Related Macular Degeneration (AMD), eye infections and advanced dry eyes.
- Overall eye health must be generally good without skin or other disease that can affect healing process e.g. diabetes.
- Realistic expectation and understanding about LASIK and its possible side effects e.g. halos around lights, temporary impaired vision and dry eyes.
Possible side effects and complications
Thorough consideration and realistic expectation in refractive surgery are required before making decision whether or not to receive treatments. Performed by highly experienced ophthalmologists supported with cutting-edge technology, LASIK is an effective procedure to correct a wide range of vision problems. Even though LASIK is considered a safe refractive surgery with satisfying outcomes, it still possesses rare side effects and mild postoperative complications. These might include:
- Infection: Corneal infection and sterile infiltrates are rare early complications of laser refractive surgery.
- Under or overcorrections: Persistent refractive errors may occur following laser refractive surgery due to under-correction, overcorrection, or regression.
- Glare or halos around lights: This phenomenon is more likely to occur at night when pupillary dilation allows for the transmission of light at the edge of the ablation zone. This symptom tends to diminish with time.
- Vision fluctuations: Fluctuating vision might be experienced, however it is often a temporary effect.
- Dry eyes: LASIK might cause some nerves in the cornea to be cut, leading to reduced corneal sensitivity. In response, the eyes may not sense the need for lubrication, causing the body to produce fewer tears, resulting in dry eye syndrome.

Popular and Profitable Pesticide Found to be Cause of Massive Bee Die-Offs
A recent Harvard School of Public Health study has found two widely used pesticides, known as neonicotinoids, appear to cause significant harm to honey bee colonies over the winter, especially when the winter is exceptionally cold. Replicating a similar finding from a 2012 study, the research group found that low doses of imidacloprid are linked to Colony Collapse Disorder (CCD), which causes bees to abandon their hives over the winter and eventually die. A second neonicotinoid, clothianidin, has been found in the recent study to have the same negative effect on honeybees.
“The significance of bees to agriculture cannot be underestimated,” the study’s lead, Chengshen (Alex) Lu, stated on Harvard University’s website. “And it apparently doesn’t take much of the pesticide to affect the bees. Our experiment included pesticide amounts below what is normally present in the environment.”
Besides producing honey, bees play the critical role of pollinating roughly one-third of America’s crops, including fruits, vegetable, nuts and livestock feed such as alfalfa, corn and clover. Widespread deaths of honeybees could result in millions of dollars of agricultural losses, not to mention the critical role that these small insects play in fertilizing wild plants.
Lu and his co-authors noticed that incidents of Colony Collapse Disorder began to rise in the early 1990s when imidacloprid was first introduced as a pesticide. Bees become exposed to the toxin through drinking nectar from plants or, commercially, when bee farmers feed the small animals high fructose syrup from corn that has been sprayed with imidacloprid.
The researchers conducted their study in Worcester County, Mass., comparing bees in four different bee yards. After 12 weeks of imidacloprid exposure, all of the bees were still alive, but by 23 weeks of pesticide treatments, 94% of the exposed hives had died. Colonies exposed to the highest levels of the poison died first.
Bayer, the exclusive patent holder of imidacloprid from 1988 until recently, has repeatedly denied its product causes CCD, even as the European Commission adopted a proposal to restrict the use of three pesticides belonging to the nenicotinoid family (clothianidin, imidacloprid and thiametoxam) for a period of two years starting in 2013. The company has invested over $12 million to open a Bee Care Center at the Research Triangle Park of North Carolina, with facilities for cooperative research with beekeepers, universities and others. Bayer, together with Syngenta and Dow Chemical are stepping up their own lobbying efforts to counter calls for a ban on the pesticides in Congress, suggesting that without these chemicals farmers and gardeners would be "forced" to use products that are more harmful.
An estimated 30 to 90% of honeybee colonies have died since 2006. Scientists, beekeepers, farmer and policy makers have ventured many theories for these losses, including pests, pesticides, diseases, and migratory beekeeping. Now it appears that the most likely culprit has been singled out.
According to the EPA, Neonicotinoid pesticides are not currently banned in the US, but are currently being re-evaluated by the EPA to ensure they meet current health and safety standards. The Saving America's Pollinators Act, introduced by Representative Earl Blumenauer, directs the Environmental Protection Agency to "suspend use of the most bee-toxic neonicotinoids for use in seed treatment, soil application, or foliar treatment on bee attractive plants within 180 days, and to review these neonicotinoids and make a new determination about their proper application and safe use."
What You Can Do
- Identify and Avoid pesticides containing neonicotinoids using this list compiled by Beyond Pesticides.
- Cite this study on an online review of any product containing imidacloprid and help inform consumers.
- Sign a Petition to the EPA via Change.org to ban the sale of Bayer's neoniconitoid products.
- Sign a Petition to Lowes and Home Depot to stop selling plants that have been pre-treated with neonicotinoids.
- Support the Saving America's Pollinators Act using OpenCongress, sponsored by Oregon Democratic Representative Earl Blumenauer , supported by the Center for Food Safety, Friends of the Earth and the American Bird Conservancy. Feel free to copy and paste the text from this letter.

Centaury Bach Flower Remedy
Key Word - Self Determination | Bach Group - Oversensitivity
What Does Centaury Help With...
Centaury restores the qualities of inner strength & self-determination. Those in need of Centaury have a misplaced sense of service and believe that they must put others needs before their own. They appear to lack the will power to say ‘no’ and are easily dominated and open to being taken advantage of by those with stronger personalities. As a consequence they often wear themselves out in service to others and do not develop their own individuality or creativity. Those in the negative Centaury state are often seen as being ‘a doormat for others’.
- Latin Name - Centaurium erythraea
- Centaury is prepared by the sun method of potentisation
- Dr Bach placed Centaury in the Oversensitive to Influences and Ideas Group
- Centaury is one of Bach’s original Twelve Healers
Dr Bach’s Description of Centaury
"Kind, quiet, gentle people who are over-anxious to serve others. They overtax their strength in their endeavours. Their wish so grows upon them that they become more servants than willing helpers. Their good nature leads them to do more than their own share of work, and in so doing they may neglect their own particular mission in life"
From the Twelve Healers & Other Remedies - By Dr Edward Bach ( 1936 edition )
More Insights Into Centaury
"Centaury is so helpful for restoring balance if you’re abandoning yourself and your own needs because you’ve unconsciously absorbed the idea that other people’s needs matter more than yours"
“Centaury is the remedy to take if you put other people’s needs before your own, have people pleaser tendencies, and habitually find yourself being of service to others at your own expense. Ways this self-sacrificing pattern can show up include saying ‘I don’t mind, whatever’s easy’ when somebody asks you what you’d like because you don’t want to be a bother, or helping others even when it doesn’t really suit you because you’d hate to be seen as selfish. Centaury is so helpful for restoring balance if you’re abandoning yourself and your own needs because you’ve unconsciously absorbed the idea that other people’s needs matter more than yours.” Jackie Stewart - Crystal Herbs
"People in the negative Centaury state often say, while helplessly shrugging their shoulders, "I simply can't refuse," or "I'm just unable to say no." Outsiders often shake their heads at the way a Centaury type makes himself a doormat. Strong Centaury types often complain of tiredness and being overworked, a result of taking on too much in their desire to help. Apart from this, however, they don't consider their state a painful one, failing to recognize its full implications, and therefore also failing to notice that with all their service to others, they aren't fulfilling their own purpose in life. The motive behind their helpfulness is nothing but the very human desire for recognition and validation." The Encyclopedia of Bach Flower Therapy by Mechthild Scheffer
"Centaury people find it difficult to assert their own will and purpose in the face of the dominant presence of others. The plant demonstrates how it is necessary to make a space for oneself to live in. Bach intended that the remedy will help, so that you may become an active, positive worker instead of a passive agent. He saw in this a polarity between weakness and strength. Weakness at the soul level shows itself in a lack of self-assertion, this in turn shows as a weakness of will, this then leads to a weakness physiologically. Bach then went on to say: "Those who are weak, pale and have no strength, just feeble and tired, will be much helped by Centaury." Bach Flower Remedies Form & Function by Julian Barnard
"The Centaury people are quiet, sometimes timid, lacking in individuality, docile and always willing to do anything for others. They are submissive, easily imposed upon and often become the prey of the unscrupulous people who take advantage of their good nature. They are the "door-mats" that are both used and overworked by others because they do not have the strength of will to refuse; in this way they increase the dominance of the bully. They become easily tired, and often seem to be drained of their vitality. In appearance they are often languid and pale, although actually they are mentally alert, active, and wide awake." Illustrated Handbook of the Bach Flower Remedies by Philip Chancellor
The Oversensitive to Influences and Ideas Group
Dr Bach placed his 38 Bach Flower Remedies in seven main groups. As mentioned, Centaury is in the Oversensitive to Influences and Ideas Group contains the following remedies: Agrimony - smiles hide inner worry, Centaury - weak willed, subservient, Holly - anger, jealousy, suspicion and Walnut - change, need for adaptability, protection.
