Slowly but surely, I'm running out of my trusty Redken Allsoft shampoo and conditioner. I bought a liter of each last year in the Ulta sale and had been planning to repurchase them (the line practically saved my hair from permanent chlorine damage) but Redken isn't a cruelty free line, so now I'm trying to find a replacement.
Enter: Lush. I've been meaning to place an order since I started blogging, so safe to say it's been a long time coming! I browsed their shampoos, conditioners, bubble bars, bath bombs, scrubs, basically the entire website and added quite a few items to my cart. After hearing only the best things about the handmade brand, how do live up to the expectations?
Unfortunately, my first impressions aren't great. I ordered four products: a shampoo, a body wash, a bath bomb, and a body/face scrub, and none of them smell good. I had been expecting a light, natural fragrance but these don't smell at all the way they are described on the website, despite having a great combination of ingredients that sound amazing on the bottle.
The first thing I picked up was the Fairly Traded Honey shampoo. Luckily I only got a small bottle because I'm very picky with haircare and I wanted to trial it before committing to a big one. I'm obsessed with honey as an ingredient, I think it smells great and it has a lot of moisturizing benefits (which my hair desperately needs!) I figured that since fairly traded honey is the first ingredient in this shampoo, it would have a nice, light scent, but it somehow smells like chemicals. I don't like it at all and it was giving me a headache while using it for the first time.
Though the smell bothered me, I did like how it makes my hair feel after the first use. My scalp felt clean but not stripped, and it didn't weigh my hair down at all. I will try to get past the fragrance and keep using it and see how it works long-term!
The next product I think I'm going to get rid of, the scent got to me so much. I ordered a trial size of the Comforter body wash, which was supposed to smell like berries and bergamot, and again, just smells really harsh and gross. I would prefer a fake berry fragrance over this. Also, the use by date is July 17th and I didn't receive my package until July 3rd, so I only have a little over two weeks to use this if I were to follow Lush's recommendations. The Comforter looks pretty in the bottle but I do not want to use it again.
I also picked up the Ocean Salt scrub from Lush. This one's use by date is also the 17th, but I might be able to use it up by that time. You don't get a lot of product in here but you can use it on the face or the body. I used it on my legs and it worked well, though I usually prefer something more coarse. I don't like the scent of this product either, one of my main ingredients is lime extract but it doesn't smell anything like lime. Luckily the scent isn't as strong in this one! The texture is very interesting, I can't decide if I like it or not. There are both fine and coarse grains of salt in it and they are suspended in a strange moussey liquid. I think that this product is a bit overpriced considering how small it is and how much it cost, but it isn't a bad product from what I've tried!
And the last product I chose is a famous one: my first Lush bath bomb! I'm obsessed with the sea and the water, so Big Blue sounded right up my street. I haven't used it yet, but I'm excited to. It is supposed to smell like lavender and lime and it includes sea salt and seaweed, which is intriguing. It'll fit my mermaid aesthetic for sure. Keep an eye on my Instagram @beautyfromkatie because I'm sure I'll post pictures of my first bath bomb experience!
As to how I feel about Lush, I'm very much on the fence about them. I love that their products are handmade, cruelty-free, organic, fair trade, made from recycled materials, etc. but I would rather have a product smell like nothing than an overbearing fragrance that makes me dislike using it. It's possible that I picked the only duds from the whole range, but I think I got a good variety of products and none of them smell the way that they are described. There isn't a Lush store anywhere near me so online is the only way that I can get their products, and at the moment I'm hesitant to place another order.
Please let me know if you've had an experience like this with Lush, or if there are any products of theirs that you swear by!

I love lush products. They always smell fantastic and work so well, especially their skincare products. I love their mask of magnaminty.
I'm always worried about order this sort of thing online because of scents, as I have chronic headaches I have to be very careful. I haven't use any of these, but I do love their Cup O Coffee mask scrub.
Awesome haul, it's a shame you don't love them that much! I haven't ordered or bought much from Lush, only one bath bomb like four years ago haha!
Aw what a bad first experience! Try to order some of their famous products, maybe you'll like the more!
Great haul! I love Lush. I haven't shopped there in months, so this is really tempting! I love The Comforter. It smells amazing!

Punching Bag or Counterpuncher: Responses to a Frivolous Lawsuit
By Anthony Argiropoulos & William Gibson on October 2, 2020
Posted in Commercial Torts
Congratulations. You've been sued in court in New Jersey. To make matters worse, the complaint is full of lies. Not distorted versions of the truth or someone's interpretation of events that actually occurred, but outright false statements of fact. The kind that make you look bad in your personal and business communities. The kind that hurt your reputation and cause people to think twice about doing business with you or your company.
You are understandably upset and want to go on the offensive, but your lawyer tells you the playbook is empty. She explains that there is an "absolute litigation privilege" and that the New Jersey Supreme Court said in a case called Hawkins v Harris, 141 N.J. 207 (1995), that you can't sue someone for defamation for any communication: "(1) made in judicial or quasi-judicial proceedings; (2) by litigants or other participants authorized by law; (3) to achieve the objects of the litigation; and (4) that have some connection or logical relation to the action."
It is time for a new playbook—and maybe a new lawyer. Although it is true that you cannot sue someone for defamation based on false statements contained in a pleading (and frankly, we think that Hawkins should be revisited) you still have options.
First, both the state and federal courts impose penalties for filing frivolous pleadings. N.J.S.A. 2A:15-59.1 governs sanctions against a party, and New Jersey Rule 1:4-8 governs sanctions against an attorney. The courts recognize that these rules were put in place to deter baseless litigation without discouraging honest, creative advocacy. Ellison v. Evergreen Cemetery, 266 N.J. Super. 74, 85 (App. Div. 1993). Federal Courts have a similar provision, Rule 11 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, which requires that attorneys investigate the factual basis of their pleadings and refrain from making pleadings intended to harass their litigation opponents.
Second, attorneys have an ethical obligation not to file frivolous or false pleadings. New Jersey Rule of Professional Conduct 3.3 imposes a duty of candor, and requires attorneys to correct any misstatements of fact in their pleadings. Therefore, if the statements contained in the complaint are demonstrably false, an aggrieved litigant should strongly consider bringing ethical charges against the lawyer who brought them in the first place. Attorneys are required to act as vigorous advocates, but they have a responsibility to occasionally act as a check on their client's worst impulses. Wronged litigants should take advantage of New Jersey's robust system to discipline attorneys who shirk their ethical obligations.
Third, New Jersey recognizes a common law counter-action for "malicious use of process" arising from an underlying civil proceeding. In LoBiondo v. Schwartz, 199 N.J. 62 (N.J. 2009), the New Jersey Supreme Court held that a plaintiff who files a frivolous suit can be held to account if the defendant can prove, after the favorable termination of the case, that the plaintiff acted with malice and had no probable cause to bring the lawsuit. Unfortunately, this claim cannot be perfected until the underlying litigation is successfully terminated, but the threat may be enough to force a settlement.
Finally, some state and federal statutes include a fee shifting provision that, if pursued aggressively, can deter a frivolous plaintiff from instituting or continuing a baseless lawsuit. The Lanham Act, for example, provides that in "exceptional cases" the court can award reasonable fees to the prevailing party, 15 USC § 1117(a), and courts have interpreted "exceptional cases" to include frivolous pleadings or conduct of the litigation. See Securacomm Consulting, Inc. v. Securacom Inc., 224 F.3d 273, 280 (3d Cir. 2000) ("culpable conduct on the part of the losing party" is required but it can "come in a variety of forms and may vary depending on the circumstances of a particular case.").
It is never comfortable to be the target of a lawsuit, and facing frivolous and false allegations is even more frustrating. Although courts are rightly concerned with stifling access to justice, there is no reason that dishonest litigants—and the attorneys who enable them—should avoid the consequences of their bad actions, and defendants have options.

Tony Stewart visits injured fans
Published On February 27, 2013 | By Kimberly Petalas
After being involved in a crash during the Daytona 500 on Sunday, Tony Stewart was unable to finish the Great American Race. His crash however, was nothing compared to the disastrous one during the Nationwide series race on the previous day, which injured people in the stands. On the last lap of the race, a huge crash occurred that sent fiery debris into the audience, causing 28 injuries.
President Joie Chitwood reported that 14 fans were transported to a hospital, while 14 others were treated at the track facilities.
Since he was not involved in the crash, Stewart was able to pull out a win at Saturday's race. Then, he decided he needed to visit those who were injured. He spent more than two hours after the Daytona 500 visiting with the six patients who were still hospitalized at Halifax Health.
"We've always known since racing was started this was a dangerous sport, but we assume that risk, and it's hard when the fans get caught up in it," Stewart said after Saturday's victory. "So as much as we want to celebrate now and as much as this is a big deal to all of us, I'm more worried about the drivers (injured) and the fans in the stands right now, because I could see it all in the mirror, and it didn't look good from where I was at, either."
Stewart autographed a hat in front of each patient as a "get well soon" gift. Stewart tried to make his visit unknown, not wanting the publicity for visiting the patients, but the new spread quickly onto Twitter the following day.
While Stewart may not have the best reputation, visiting those patients in the hospital definitely helped him out, whether he wanted people to know about it or not.

About Delta Motorsports
Mike D'Olimpio, president of Delta Motorsports LLC continues the excellence and interest in British Marques which you have come to expect from us! Delta's founder and former owner, Jim Medland, had a history of owning British cars since purchasing a new 1957 Austin Healey 100-6, which he entered in a few parking lot events with the South Bend Region SCCA. The bug hit hard! After moving to Phoenix in the fall of 1958, he entered Hill Climbs and dirt track races, (yeah really) with the Healey. He soon found himself bending wrenches for a small independent shop and eventually purchased a 1954 XK120 Jag, which he also raced both in local club races and in SCCA nationals. Later his stable included an AC Bristol Lotus S+7 and a Formula V. All the while he was gaining experience in parts and service of British cars, including a long stint as service manager of a Phoenix Jaguar/BMC dealership. Finally a new Lotus/Jensen dealer, International Motorcars, LTD opened and recruited him as their service manager. He was hooked by a new black Healey and has never looked back. With the demise of Jensen Car Company, LTD., in England, a niche market developed from the need of Jensen owners for help in maintaining their treasured cars.
Led by Jim, Delta Motorsports was formed August 1, 1977 by ex parts and service personnel and customers of International Motorcars, Ltd., to provide parts and service to the suddenly orphaned Jensen owners in the state of Arizona.
It soon became apparent that the need extended far beyond our state borders, and we began to advertise in several national publications and distributed a single page catalog.
Through fair pricing and prompt, efficient service, we soon published a second, then third etc. catalogs. Each was larger and more comprehensive until we arrived at our present 32 page book. Meanwhile, in October of 1985, we were granted a US Distributorship by Jensen Car Company, Ltd of West Bromwich, England.
As time passed, we noted some critical parts becoming less and less available. It was then that we realized if we did not initiate reproduction of these items, the cars would soon become unusable and end up in bone yards all over the United States. This was unacceptable.
Our first repro parts were fiberglass body panels and spoilers, which saved a number of cars from the scrap heap. We still sell a quantity of these, notably spoilers which are tremendous aids to cooling. Next came replacement headers and exhaust systems, suspension bushings and ball joints. We also supply steel floor pans and rocker/sill assemblies; seat and carpet kits, tonneaus and top boots, etc, etc, etc. We ship many parts, such as pistons, gaskets and suspension bushings to England, where these parts have become essentially obsolete.

Star of new documentary takes anti-bullying campaign to Capitol Hill
A Brave Heart's Lizzie Velasquez presses Congress on stalled legislation, as her Oscar hopes get boost

Members of Congress on the fence about anti-bullying legislation are finding themselves confronted by a diminutive Dynamo.
Lizzie Velasquez, star of the new documentary A Brave Heart, appeared on Capitol Hill Tuesday to support the Safe Schools Improvement Act, which would require schools to enhance anti-bullying efforts and to collect data on bullying incidents.
She returned to the Hill today to meet with Democratic Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi. Later in the day she will host a screening of the documentary for lawmakers who control the fate of the legislation. According to the Washington Post, the bill has been stuck in House and Senate committees for eight years.
The film, which just qualified for the Best Documentary Oscar race, reveals how Velasquez became a bullying victim at a young age.
[Update: Lifetime will begin airing the documentary starting Monday, October 17 at 8pm ET/7pm CT]
When she first went to school in Austin, Texas classmates ostracized her, fearful of her unorthodox appearance -- the result of a very rare and little-understood medical condition. But over time, and with the support of a very loving family, she won over fellow students. In high school she even joined the cheerleading team.
At age 17 all the good will and self-esteem she had accumulated was decimated by a discovery she made on the Internet: an eight-second video of Velasquez that labeled her "world's ugliest woman." It had already exceeded four million views. Many commenters urged her to kill herself.
A Brave Heart: The Lizzie Velasquez Story, directed by Sara Hirsh Bordo, explores how Velasquez surmounted that unimaginably horrible experience, going on to graduate from college and to become a motivational speaker and anti-bullying advocate.
I met Velasquez in Hollywood recently where she explained how she maintained a positive outlook in the midst of circumstances many might find unbearable.
"Once I started high school I decided I was going to eliminate the word 'why' from my vocabulary because it just led me down this [negative] path and never got me anywhere," she said. "So I just completely took it out and I still to this day don't ever really use that word."
As Velasquez tries to make friends and influence people on Capitol Hill she is finding growing support for her #imwithlizzie anti-bullying campaign in Hollywood.
Oscar winner Octavia Spencer is among the famous to lend support, along with Chris Hemsworth, Zachary Quinto, Kylie Jenner, Katie Couric, Sara Bareilles, Kristen Bell and many others.
And Velasquez is taking her message directly to students who, after all, hold the key to whether anti-bullying efforts can succeed. She and director Sara Bordo recently screened A Brave Heart to hundreds of schoolchildren as part of the Carmel International Film Festival. Watch the video here
To judge from the thunderous applause Velasquez received from the kids, there is reason to be hopeful minds and hearts can be changed.
[Editor's note: for a nominal fee schools can license the film to show to students. Details here]

The Golden Age of Graphics? The Number of GPU Developers Skyrockets in 2020
By Anton Shilov
Eight new chip developers announced GPU plans last year.
(Image credit: AMD)
The number of graphics processing units (GPU) developers grew to 19 last year as multiple companies are preparing for looming artificial intelligence (AI), high-performance computing (HPC), and edge computing megatrends, according to an observation by GraphicSpeak, a Jon Peddie Research (JPR) publication. The question is, how many of the started GPU projects will actually come to fruition?
Dozens of companies used to develop discrete graphics processors (dGPUs) in the 1980s and the 1990s, but their number shrank to less than half a dozen by the early 2000s and to two (or three, depending on how you count) later in the decade. By the early 2010s, companies like Arm, Imagination Technologies, DMP, Vivante (now part of VeriSilicon), and Think Silicon (an Applied Materials company) focused purely on GPU IP development (except for DMP). In contrast, companies like Apple and Qualcomm started to design their own integrated graphics processors (iGPUs).
The advent of compute on graphics processing units for AI, HPC, and other highly-parallel workloads, as well as the emergence of multiple new device categories, have spurred significant interest in graphics in recent years. This inspired China-based Jingjia Micro to develop and release the country's first discrete GPU in 2014 and Intel to return to discrete GPU development in 2017.
By late 2019, the number of dGPU, iGPU, and GPU IP developers grew to 11, according to Graphic Speak. Meanwhile, if Tianshu Zhixin (established in 2018) with its Big Island GPGPU chip is included, it grows to 12.
(Image credit: GraphicSpeak, a Jon Peddie Research (JPR) publication)
But the interest in GPUs and the ongoing trade war between the U.S. and China inspired many other chip designers to start developing their own GPUs. At least eight new companies announced their GPU plans in 2020. Some of these companies are from China, and some others plan to adopt the open RISC-V architecture. The majority of new entrants are looking to build datacenter-grade solutions rather than consumer GPUs, and companies like Phytium will inevitably address client PCs with their graphics technology, too.
Developing GPUs is a very tricky task. These processors tend to be extremely complex in terms of transistor count, and they also feature distinct subsystems and a multifaceted software stack. It remains to be seen how many of these new GPU projects will actually be a success. Still, it is pretty obvious that with Intel and several new entrants, AMD and Nvidia will face considerably more competition in the next couple of years than they have in the last couple of decades.

It sure is the golden age, Without a stock pile of gold, you're aren't going to be buying anything.

Not golden age for consumers!
Matt_ogu812
Both graphic cards and gold are just as elusive.
How can there be a golden age of graphics cards, be so many developers but no products to sell?
Are these developers building them for themselves?

There is zero chance I would ever put chinese hardware like a cpu or gpu in my pc. Hardware level malware that can't be detected just doesn't sound appealing to me.

Reader says Barry Nelson and his wife Wendy are "happy, guitar-picking, great citizens."
Thank you for the story on Barry Nelson, Citizen of the Year … it's all true! He's most-deserving.
And, if there was such a thing as co-citizen of the year, that would be Barry's wife Wendy. Both of them have provided years of leadership to the bi-weekly bluegrass jam we hold at Bigby Place; I don't know how we'd manage without them.
They are charter members of the West Kootenay Bluegrass Society, now starting its 16th year. Barry also does a regular gig at Jubilee Manor and Wendy has a harmonica show on Kootenay Coop Radio. Not only are they great citizens of our city; they are happy, guitar-picking great citizens.

The Hot Disk TPS 2500 S is the flagship instrument in the system portfolio of Hot Disk AB. This general-purpose R&D instrument is designed for precision analysis of thermal transport properties – including thermal conductivity, thermal diffusivity and specific heat capacity. The TPS 2500 S covers an extensive range of materials of various geometries and dimensions, and meets ISO Standard 22007-2.
The standardized TPS technique – today used in more than 600 laboratories – is highly appreciated for its ability to simultaneously determine thermal conductivity, thermal diffusivity and specific heat capacity from a single measurement, with limited emphasis on sample preparation. The operative simplicity of the TPS 2500 S and the performance achieved when using optimally designed Hot Disk sensors, makes this system an ideal, trustworthy tool for tests of solids, liquids, powders, pastes and foams. The trademark high accuracy and precision also makes the instrument suitable for QC testing.
The selection of software modules allows the TPS 2500 S to be used in many specialized applications, from basic testing of isotropic materials (Isotropic module) to measurements of rod-shaped specimens (One-dimensional module); thin films, coatings or adhesive layers (Thin Film module); high-conducting sheets or slabs (Slab module); extremely light and low-conducting materials (Low-density/Highly-insulating module); and anisotropic samples or layered structures (Anisotropic module) – all important applications in the electronics, automotive, aerospace, nuclear and chemical industries. Furthermore, with the unique feature of being able to probe thermal conductivity as a function of sample depth (Structural Probe module), the TPS 2500 S can e.g. be used to determine whether a sample is homogeneous or not. In addition to these applications the TPS 2500 S can also be employed for dedicated specific heat capacity testing of large (compared to conventional methods, e.g. DSC) solid samples, such as complex composites.
The Hot Disk Thermal Analyser software for the TPS 2500 S system incorporates tools for automated measurements as well as automatic temperature control of external devices. It also incorporates tools for exporting results to 3rd-party software (MS Excel), for additional processing or statistical analysis. For precise and automatic temperature readings an optional PT-100 temperature sensor is available.
Measurement Time 1 to 2560 seconds.

Additionally, this headset is ready for wideband audio, making it compatible with smartphones enabled for HD Voice.
The Voyager Edge in white (view larger).
Voyager Edge packs in responsive features to let you answer calls, use voice commands, and hear important status notifications without even looking at your phone. Smart sensor technology senses when the headset is being worn so it can automatically answer calls as you place the headset on your ear or redirect audio to your phone when you set down your headset. Voyager Edge syncs to your contacts, telling you who's calling before you answer and voice commands make call management easy—simply say "Answer" to take the call, or "Ignore" to send it to voicemail. Now your "phone hand" can carry a latte, greet someone, or open a door.
Performance and power to keep your conversation going (view larger).
Be ready when life calls. Using the portable, wireless charging case to top up your Voyager Edge between calls will keep you powered throughout your day by giving you up to 10 additional hours of talk time. Status alerts announce when it's time to recharge, but if at any time you're curious, use a voice command to hear remaining talk time, visually check battery status on your smartphone, or dock your Voyager Edge in its case and tap the touch-sensitive icons to see the meter LEDs light up.
Fully charged case gives your Voyager Edge up to 16 hours of talk time (view larger).


The City of El Paso invites the public to two open house community meetings to learn about the Regional Water Park project for Central El Paso.
At the open house community meetings, the Capital Improvement Department will share the concept layout and discuss a possible partnership to relocate the project to a larger site located within walking distance from the original location.
The City is evaluating an alternate location in the general vicinity to provide area residents with a water park that is comparable in size to the other water parks planned for El Paso and to provide viable parking options for its visitors.
The water park will feature: a lap pool with climbing wall and volleyball net for recreational activities in addition to lap swimming, a zero depth entry family pool with water playground, a lazy river, water slides, toddler pool, shade canopies, concessions, individual changing rooms.

SolMan 7.2 Test configuration issue.
We have created process structure and assigned the executable. When we are trying to create the Test configuration(Automation script), after giving test config name, again its asking to Assign the executable and Test profile field is not visible.
Is there any config issue?
Are you creating the Test Configuration from the Process structure in that case executable should be preselected in the script unless there are more than 1 executable assigned to the Process structure from where you are trying to create the Test Configuration. If there are more than 1 executable then click on Assign Executable and select the one you want to automate. Also what is the type of the executable type you are using to record ?
Test Profile should be visible.
I am creating the Test configuraiton from Process structure/Process step level. And we have assigned only one executable.
We are trying to create the Test config at solution documentation level/Process structure level.
Even though Test profile is not visible.
So as per your screen shot, you are trying to create Test Configuration at Create Quotation level ? Since there is already executable you should be able to see it already assigned to the Test configuration or you can click on Assign executable and assign the same.
Wrt Test Profile you need to go to the Test configuration then select Go To - SUT Management , traverse to the SDC - Target component and maintain the user name & password in SAP ABAP Backend as in your example you are using transaction executable type (Create Quotation).

Interview with Andi Watson
Tell me a bit about yourself. Where are you from? How did you decide to become an artist?
I'm from Kippax, a small town near Leeds in the north of England. I grew up close to streams and a wood and split my time between being active and 'laking out' (playing with friends) and staying indoors drawing. I enjoyed the company of my friends but also loved being engrossed in my own private world of drawing TIE fighters and other imaginative stuff. I would go through periods of being a 'hermit' and wanting to be left alone to draw and eventually that side of me won out.
Perhaps I answered the call of the Dark Side, to overextend this metaphor, but I find I work best when left to my own devices.
I became an artist because I enjoy writing, drawing and making stuff up. I still get a kick out of a good drawing or gesture, a line of dialogue or plot progression. There's a lot of talk about the dopamine hit of social media, that little bit of pleasure from positive or reinforcing feedback. I think my brain is wired, or has been trained through obsessive practice, to get a little dopamine hit, or equivalent, from creating. Also, drawing and reading was all I really was interested in or any good at.
How do you start your day?
Make breakfast in bed for my wife. She works a 9-5, although it's rarely that short a day. So I make breakfast and would normally have made a packed lunch for my daughter during school term. She's just graduated school so I won't have that as a pillar of my routine anymore. In fact my life will be quite different when she goes to college. I've been a stay-at-home-dad throughout so it's going to be weird.
What does your workspace/studio look like? What aspects of it are most important to you?
It's the front room of our Edwardian terrace house. It has a handsome period fireplace. I have a writing desk as well as a standing desk I cobbled together from an Ikea bookcase. I have an uncomfortable wooden chair for when I'm drawing and a comfortable chair for when I'm writing. I try and keep the clutter under control but as it's a workspace, I accept it's not going to feature in a photoshoot in Elle Decor. I'm surrounded by books which makes me happy.
I have tried working away from home in the past but I find it more convenient to have everything close by. Like a couple of footsteps close by. I have often wrestled with separating work and home life but eventually accepted defeat. To some extent I'm always at work. My brain is whirring away in the background on whatever problem that day's work has presented, regardless of whether I'm at home or in a studio. I am better at letting it go and taking the evening off now, though.
I like that I can shut the door. I've worked in a variety of spaces over the years, kitchen tables, a cupboard, I even had my own building for a while. It wasn't part of our country estate but a small attached laundry room that was just big enough for me and a drawing board once we'd taken the washing machine out. It's always nice to be able to close the door and not be interrupted, even if it's only for fifteen minutes. Especially if you have small children.
What's your favorite medium, and why do you love it?
I guess my first love will always be prose. That's where I first fell in love with stories. I admire writers and their mastery of language. I have always found writing difficult so am in awe of anyone who can work the magic with words that really talented writers do.
As far as my own favourite medium to work in, obviously it's comics. The alchemy of words and pictures. It has its own magic in combining the two. I have hopefully created something greater than the words and images separately. It is also really really hard to master. If it was easy I would have gotten bored and done something else years ago.
What tool has improved your workflow or creative process recently?
For my most recent book, Kerry and the Knight of the Forest (out now from all good bookshops), I added the use of a chinagraph pencil to my familiar pens in order to develop more texture to the art.
As I'm struggling with writing a new graphic novel for grown ups right now, I'm not using anything more complex than a pencil and scrap paper. I'm wrestling with plot and character rather than mastering a new tool.
As far as software goes, Janna has introduced me to the full range of teleconferencing software out there to conduct meetings. Before that I'd avoided Skype and the like. I sometimes even manage to appear on screen at the right time.
When you're feeling "artist's block," what do you do to get "unblocked"?
Usually blame myself for being talentless and assume no one else goes through this. Truly talented people have no shortage of ideas, right?
Of course not. Being blocked can mean all kinds of things, from struggling with a story (me right now) to feeling some effects of burnout.
I think the important thing to remember is that you are a human and not a comic-making machine. I know that's difficult to keep in mind when it's your job — you're freelance and you need to make rent. But no one is 100% creative every hour of the day. Do this long enough and you will realize there are ebbs and flows. Sometimes you are peaking, everything has come together and you are doing your best work and it feels effortless. Others you've hit a trough, you feel like you are struggling to do the very basics adequately despite working harder than ever. That is totally normal. Do not beat yourself up.
It's nice, if I can, to do some personal stuff unrelated to what the market wants. A mini comic, or something on the web, a poster or just give myself time to doodle in a sketchbook. Take time to remind yourself art is fun and pleasurable, not just another grinding march towards a deadline or a way to make money.
Even if you've created a dozen books you're still going to have to start again at the foot of the mountain and begin something new. The good and the bad news is it never gets easier. But anyone who wants an easy life would not choose comics.
What's particularly inspiring to you right now? Where do you go when you need a dose of creative inspiration?
I have a bunch of prose books on the shelf facing my table, so if I'm feeling a bit flat I'll pick up a volume of Pinter or Beckett and read a few lines. Or Evelyn Waugh or Lydia Davis or whoever. They are distant enough from comics I don't have to worry about being overly influenced.
What's a favorite project that you've worked on so far in your career? What did you love about it?
Often the project before last is my favourite. On a most recent project the wounds are still fresh. I see the flaws and I'm sick of looking at it after working so intensely on it.
So my book before last was The Book Tour which came out in France in 2019. It's coming out in English from Top Shelf in November and it's the book I'm most proud of at the moment.
It's a book I did without telling anyone about it. I just decided to go ahead and make this one and didn't really worry about publishers and whatnot until it was done. It came together really well, the art and story are in perfect sync. It was one of those rare occasions where I knew I was working on something good while I was working on it. Usually there's lots of self doubt and second guessing myself, but this one I was happy with throughout. I managed to balance the dark and light, drama and humour and dialogue and action.
What is your dream project in the future?
No one single project, I just hope I get the opportunity to make more books, tell more stories and get better at it along the way.
What advice do you wish you could give your younger self?
Probably what I periodically remind myself: remember that it's supposed to be fun. There are any number of other ways to earn a living, or half a living, so if you are gonna choose this one, enjoy it.
How do you balance work and art with personal life?
See above. Sometimes I feel I've got it right and others I know I'm out of whack but perhaps the circumstances, a tough deadline for instance, means there's not much I can do right at that moment. It's a constant struggle. The pressure to produce can be intense, externally and internally. The worst thing I've done in the past is stress out at stressing out about work/life balance.
I wrote and drew a monthly book by myself for a year when my daughter was a toddler so I'm probably not the best person to ask. In retrospect that was super dumb. But it did teach me that I had to put family first. I've done a fairly good job since then. Not always perfect but I haven't felt that same intense mixture of frustration and guilt I did then when I was working harder than ever and still failing on the important stuff.
I try to take evenings and weekends off.
I just recently discussed some thoughts on this subject in my newsletter here: https://andiwatson.substack.com/p/the-real-thing
What's an example of a past rejection or "failure" that ended up helping you? How did it help?
I'm not sure I subscribe to the idea that iron sharpens iron. I've never got a harsh crit or review and thought "I'll show them". My ego likes a good review as much as the next person and rejection still stings, but I'm not really the type who when they receive a critical kicking, shuts myself away, weeps tears of rage and produces my masterpiece. I just keep working away trying to get better.
To be honest, I have enough self-doubt of my own not to get overly concerned about external criticism. Of course, I'm also small enough of a person to wish painful gout on all my critics 🙂
The only thing I used to do in the days of rejection letters was keep them as scrap paper, flip them over and sketch or write new ideas on the back. That was my revenge, keep making new stuff.
How do you maintain your art career? Either in terms of marketing yourself, or developing multiple income streams?
I have maintained a, I hesitate to call it a "career" — a career assumes some sort of upward trajectory whereas mine resembles the flight path of a butterfly — through sheer stubbornness. Or lack of transferable life skills.
I have made it difficult for myself in switching genres, art styles and age groups. It might have been more sensible to find a niche and stick to it. Of course one person's niche is another's rut and I'm keen to avoid those.
I don't have any specific practical advice, but broadly I would suggest the best way to maintain a career is to maintain enthusiasm. For some that might be drawing Batman everyday for the rest of their lives. For me I like to try new things.
Follow your passions, hunches and interests whenever possible. Returning to personal projects and putting aside commercial concerns can help refill my enthusiasm for the medium.
Right this minute I'm working on this script for a graphic novel for grown ups. And I also have a pitch out with publishers for a new middle-grade book. Whatever happens, I'll keep on making comics.

Interview with Elizabeth Jancewicz
I grew up in Northern Quebec with a family of artists. My parents always made sure to have lots of art and craft supplies readily available and were very encouraging. The dramatic snowy landscapes around me and the abundance of wildlife fueled my creativity and my love for both nature and art.
I try to give myself a quiet hour to wake up. Coffee, cat on my lap, and a book next to our picture window with the fire going (if it's a cold morning).
I have an office that I share with my partner. On my side I have a window that looks out onto a pond with a spot for one of our cats to lay in the sun. I have 4 different "stations": my easel for oil painting, a small table for my laptop, a large drafting table where I draw and make comics, and a large desk for miscellaneous "other" art. Plus lots of shelves for supplies. And lots of art hanging all over the walls. Everything is always pretty messy, but I also know where everything is.
I go back and forth between a lot of different mediums, and I love that I have the availability to do so. At the moment I love oil paint for vibrant colours…
… but I love making comics for being able to express my thoughts through storytelling.
Inheriting my dad's drafting table has been a real help to my work and my mindset. Since I work from home, I love having a place that motivates me to be productive.
Being outside helps me the most. Either for a hike or even just stepping into my backyard. I like the quiet and being away from screens. The fresh air reinvigorates my mind.
What websites, social media accounts, podcasts, or books are particularly inspiring to you right now? Where do you go when you need a dose of creative inspiration?
One of my all-time favourite series is Octopus Pie by Meredith Gran. I love her storytelling and art style. I have all the books and I can read those over and over again.
My favourite project has been my ongoing comic, The Touring Test. It's the first project I've worked on in years that has been completely and totally for myself.
I'd love to have some published books of comics.
I try to be very purposeful about scheduling personal time. If I don't schedule it, it would be easy for me to overwork myself. It's something I'm still learning to do.
I can't think of one major rejection or failure, but I do try to keep a balance between optimism and caution.
My partner and I are constantly trying to think of new ways to push ourselves creatively. We spend about half our time touring in our band Pocket Vinyl, and trying to connect with people face-to-face at shows. To keep our fans engaged when we can't see them in person, we have a Patreon account that we keep updated with news about songwriting and art. We've also started holding regular livestream shows from our home.
I take on quite a few freelance art jobs as well, ranging from personal paintings and portraits, to album covers and shirt designs for other bands, artwork and logos for local businesses, and illustration jobs for educational and historical publications.
I also have an art shop online, where I sell prints and original art.
I've got a handful of commissions going at the moment: I'm working on a few final illustrations for a tabletop board game that will be released soon, I've got a t-shirt logo to make for a local book shop, I've got a handful of comic portraits to complete, and I just finished a set of illustrations for a book of historical stories for a First Nations community in Ontario.
And I'm writing and illustrating an autobiographical graphic novel about a big, crazy tour that my band did recently.

For a while there it looked like the Daytime Emmy soap categories would be split among just four shows - The Young and the Restless, The Bold and the Beautiful, Days of Our Lives and General Hospital. But a ruling from the National Academy of Television Arts & Sciences has allowed the Prospect Park internet reboots of All My Children and One Life to Live to compete in all the soap categories - and those web kids are serious about taking home some gold!
"Our entry deadline was last Friday, Jan. 17, and we've had a lot of great submissions from AMC and OLTL - in fact, we've set an extreme record for the number of entries this year," NATAS senior executive director David Michaels tells TV Guide Magazine. "From the look of Prospect Park's submissions, I think they'll give the four network soaps a real run for their money when it comes to production values and the quality of the writing, directing and acting."
Michaels also notes that "several stars who chose not to submit themselves in recent years have decided to get back into the game - so the more the merrier! Between that, and the enthusiasm from AMC and OLTL, this has the makings of a real horserace. There's a lot of buzz and a real seriousness about the awards this year, especially coming from the younger actors. They've been calling, asking questions, they really want to be involved. And that's sure to make for a much more exciting ceremony."
No word yet on when or where the 41st annual Daytime Emmys will air - talks are ongoing - but look for the acting prenom lists, with ten names per category, to be released March 3. Nominations are announced May 1.

In the Resurgent series, the sole surviving immortal on post-apocalyptic Earth gradually guides the remnants of mortal human civilization back to their previous heights.
In Columbia Resurgent, Metis is uncovered centuries later as the sole surviving immortal on Earth, and slowly leads a reunification of the continent of Columbia where she awoke.
In Part 1, Metis awakens after thousands of years in a post-apocalyptic future Earth, befriends the primitive survivors of that time, and rediscovers her immortality.
In Part 2, while working with friendly powers to investigate her forgotten origins, Metis is drawn into and exacerbates a conflict between them and a domineering neighbor state.
In Part 3, Metis helps lead a coordinated war effort against the Redstone Empire, gradually reuniting the disparate parts of the former United States of Columbia to defeat them.
In Sol Resurgent, the reunified Earth rebuilds back to space with the help of automatons who survived the war, only to discover that evil immortals have since conquered the rest of the galaxy.
In Part 1, human civilization rebuilds to the space age, teetering on the brink of nuclear war, until Metis reestablishes contact with the ancient automatons who have been terraforming Venus.
In Part 2, humanity undergoes a difficult socioeconomic transition back into an automated post-scarcity economy, as they return to space and begin to resettle the solar system.
In Part 3, Metis explores the rest of the galaxy beyond the wormhole, finding it to be ruled by her uncle Kron and his brothers, to whom she is forced to pledge subservience.

House Panel Poised to Advance Bill on Slavery Reparations
by BVN April 16, 2021 April 17, 2021

Last Updated on April 17, 2021 by BVN
Kevin Freking | Associated Press
A House panel is expected to advance a decadeslong effort to pay reparations to the descendants of slaves with a vote Wednesday on legislation that would create a commission to study the issue.
It's the first time the House Judiciary Committee has acted on the legislation. Still, prospects for final passage remain poor in such a closely divided Congress.
The legislation would establish a 13-member commission to examine slavery and discrimination in the United States from 1619 to the present. The commission would then recommend ways to educate Americans about its findings and appropriate remedies, including how the government would offer a formal apology and what form of compensation should be awarded.
History of the legislation
The bill, commonly referred to as H.R. 40, was first introduced by Rep. John Conyers, D-Mich., in 1989. The 40 refers to the failed government effort to provide 40 acres (16 hectares) of land to newly freed slaves as the Civil War drew to a close.
The momentum supporters have been able to generate for the bill this Congress follows the biggest reckoning on racism in a generation in the wake of George Floyd's death while in police custody.
"By passing H.R. 40, Congress can also start a movement toward the national reckoning we need to bridge racial divides," said Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee, D-Texas, and the bill's sponsor this Congress.
Still, the House bill has no Republicans among its 176 co-sponsors and would need 60 votes in the evenly divided 50-50 Senate to overcome a filibuster.
Chicago suburb of Evanston leads nation in reparations implementation
Last month, the Chicago suburb of Evanston became the first U.S. city to make reparations available to its Black residents for past discrimination and the lingering effects of slavery. The money will come from the sale of recreational marijuana and qualifying households would receive $25,000 for home repairs, down payments on property, and interest or late penalties on property in the city.
Other communities and organizations considering reparations range from the state of California to cities like Amherst, Massachusetts, Providence, Rhode Island, Asheville, North Carolina, and Iowa City, Iowa; religious denominations like the Episcopal Church; and prominent colleges like Georgetown University in Washington.
Polling has found long-standing resistance in the U.S. to reparations to descendants of slaves, divided along racial lines. Only 29% of Americans voiced support for paying cash reparations, according to an Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research poll taken in the fall of 2019. Most Black Americans favored reparations, 74%, compared with 15% of white Americans.
Biden supports "study" of issue
President Joe Biden captured the Democratic presidential nomination and ultimately the White House with the strong support of Black voters. The White House has said he supports the idea of studying reparations for the descendants of slaves. But it's unclear how aggressively he would push for passage of the bill amid other pressing priorities.
Members of the Congressional Black Caucus brought up the bill during a meeting with Biden at the White House on Tuesday.
"We're very comfortable with where President Biden is on H.R. 40," Jackson Lee told reporters after the meeting.
Kamm Howard, the co-chair of the National Coalition of Blacks for Reparations in America, called the commission long overdue in an earlier committee hearing and said that "many years have been wasted, many lives lost," since Conyers first introduced the measure.
Reparation is Restoration
"The goal here is restoration. Where would we be as a people if it were not for 246 years of stolen labor and accompanying horrors, if not for the multiple periods of multibillion-dollar plunder post-enslavement?" Howard said. "We must be made whole."
Larry Elder, a Black conservative talk radio host, countered in the same hearing that African Americans have made tremendous progress economically and socially, noting that Barack Obama was elected twice to the presidency. He stated that racism has never been less of a significant problem in America than it is now.

Q: How is the Floating typeclass different from Double? *User> :t sqrt
sqrt :: Floating a => a -> a

I don't understand what Floating a => a -> a is trying to tell me.
My professor told me sqrt can be thought of like sqrt :: Double -> Double.
And it does act like that but what does Floating a => a -> a mean?
Thank you

A: A useful thing to try interactively in ghci is the :info <something> command, which can sometimes tell you helpful things.
> :info Floating
class Fractional a => Floating a where
  pi :: a
  exp :: a -> a
  log :: a -> a
  sqrt :: a -> a
  (**) :: a -> a -> a
  ---------------------------------------- loads more stuff
         -- Defined in 'GHC.Float'
instance Floating Float -- Defined in 'GHC.Float'
instance Floating Double -- Defined in 'GHC.Float'

What does this mean? Floating is a type class. There is more than one type of floating point numbers. Indeed, two come as standard: Float and Double, where Double gives you twice the precision of Float. The a in Floating a stands for any type, and the big list of operations (including sqrt) is an interface which any instance of the class must implement. The fact that sqrt is in the interface for Floating means that it can always and only be used for instances of Floating. That is, to you its type is given as you say
sqrt :: Floating a => a -> a

The => syntax signals a constraint, here Floating a to its left. The type says

for any type a which is an instance of Floating, given an input of type a, the output will have type a

You can specialize this type by filling in a with any type for which the constraint Floating a can be satisfied, so the following are both true
sqrt :: Float -> Float
sqrt :: Double -> Double

Now, Float and Double are represented by different bit-patterns, so the computational mechanisms for taking square roots is different in each case. It's handy not to have to remember different names for the different versions used for different types. The "constraint" Floating a really stands for the record (or dictionary) of the implementations for type a of all the operations in the interface. What the type of sqrt is really saying is

given a type a and a dictionary of implementations for all the Floating operations, I'll take an a and give you an a

and it works by extracting the relevant sqrt implementation from the dictionary and using it on the given input.
So the => signals a function type with an invisible dictionary input just as -> signals a function type with a visible value input. You don't (indeed, you can't) write the dictionary when you use the function: the compiler figures it out from the type. When we write
sqrt :: Double -> Double

we mean the general sqrt function invisibly applied to the Floating Double dictionary.

A: You can think of the part to the left of => as a set of constraints.
Floating a means: the type a must be an instance of the Floating type class. I assume you know what type classes are. If not, see this or search for "haskell type classes"
So: Floating a => a -> a means: given any type a that is an instance of the Floating type class, this function has type a -> a. Because Haskell has more than one type of floating point numbers, this "more generic" type is used. One instance of Floating is indeed, Double.

A: Floating is a type class. You can think of it as a collection of numeric types which support the following operations:
sqrt, exp, log, (**)
trig functions:  sin, cos, tan, asin, acos, atan, pi
hyperboolic trig functions: sinh, cosh, tanh, asinh, acosh, atanh

If you know Java, then you can think of a typeclass like Floating as Java interface.
Examples of types which are in the Floating class:

*

*Float  (single precision floating point)

*Double

*Complex Double

Complex Double are complex numbers where the real and imaginary parts are represented with Double values.
Examples of types which are not in the Floating class:

*

*Int

*Char

*String

The signature sqrt :: Floating a => a -> a translates roughly as:

For any type a, if a is in the Floating class, then sqrt is a function taking an a and returning an a

This means that you can write code like this:
root a b c = (-b + sqrt (b*b - 4*a*c)) / (2*a)

and you can call root with either Double, Float or Complex Double arguments (provided they are all of the same type). For example:
import Data.Complex

ghci> let root a b c = (-b + sqrt (b*b - 4*a*c)) / (2*a)

ghci> root 1 0 1 :: Double
NaN           -- can't represent sqrt -1 as a Double

ghci> root 1 0 1 :: Complex Double
0.0 :+ 1.0    -- sqrt -1 as a Complex number = i

Note how the same expression root 1 0 1 gave different results based on what we forced the return type to be.

A: Consider this problem instead:
axe :: Log -> (Log, Log)

A function that splits wooden logs in two. Can we generalise this? Turns out we can:
class Splittable l where
  axe :: l -> (l,l)

Now axe is not specific to Logs, but can split anything that's soft enough.
instance Splittable Log where
  axe = ... -- previous definition, for logs

instance Splittable Neck where
  axe = ... -- executable version

For sqrt it's similar: this function sure makes sense for (positive) Doubles, but it can also operate on more general types of numbers. For instance,
> sqrt (-1) :: Double
    NaN    -- urgh... negative numbers don't have real roots!
> :m +Data.Complex
> sqrt (-1) :: Complex Double
    (- 0.0) :+ 1.0

A: The Floating a bit is a constraint requiring the type a to belong to the class of types that represent, or are viewable as, floating point numbers, that is, a belongs to the Floating class, or, a is an instance of Floating.
You can, sort of, think of type classes like interfaces — a type a either implements that "interface" or it doesn't; now sqrt simply works on any type a that implements Floating.
But don't get too carried away with this analogy — it ends almost as quickly as it begins: there are more differences between, say Java, interfaces and Haskell type classes than there are similarities, but the analogy is useful for "getting on board".

To sum up, Floating a => a -> a means: a function from values of any type a to values of that same type a (i.e. a -> a), for as long as the type a resembles a floating point.
Doing :i Floating in a GHCi REPL will, in addition to the structure of the Floating type class, show you a list of the types that implement it:
Prelude> :i Floating
class Fractional a => Floating a where
    ... LOTS OF FUNCTION DECLARATIONS ...
    -- Defined in 'GHC.Float'
instance Floating Float -- Defined in 'GHC.Float'
instance Floating Double -- Defined in 'GHC.Float'

Constraints have a language of their own in Haskell and can be composed, so you can have (Floating a, Floating c, Foo a, Bar [b], Baz c) => a -> [b] -> (a, c) or some other crazy imaginary type signature.

It's been a while since I posted a recipe here. The truth is, I haven't cooked as much recently as we travelled a lot, and when we were home I mostly relied on some of my staple recipes and quick dishes. Also I had the pleasure of hosting a Food Blogger Connect Potluck at my house last weekend and my lovely fellow bloggers cooked and brought some amazing dishes (I still have a lot of food in the freezer). Hence I haven't really had a chance to try any new and exciting recipes for my blog to share with you.
However I stumbled upon a very interesting recipe for broiled grapefruit at The Kitchn last week and I had to give it a try. I was always the only one in my family who ate grapefruit. I love this bitter fruit and don't hesitate to experiment with it in different recipes. Broiling was a totally new concept which I have never tried before. It really changes the taste of the fruit and the cinnamon sugar add an interesting kick. It's a perfect breakfast full of vitamins on cold winter mornings.
1. Turn on the broiler. You should keep the oven door open a crack during broiling. Halve the grapefruit then run a sharp knife around the inside edge to loosen the flesh from the skin. Place the halves in an oven proof dish.
2. Mix the cinnamon with the sugar in a small bowl. Sprinkle cinnamon sugar over each grapefruit half and broil for 15-20 minutes until the sugar caramelised and the edges are brown (mine got burned a bit). Let it cool slightly and serve. Sprinkle some more sugar over the top if you want.


ok, as i quoted from her book : SUN DAMAGE IS THE MOST SIGNIFICANT CAUSE OF WRINKLING, SKIN AGING and SKIN CANCER..
have doubts? doesn't believe me?? you can do simple test though, to prove it.. it's called BACK SIDE TEST OF AGING.. here's how : you just have to compare the areas of your body that rarely see the sun (ex : back side, inside of your arms, breasts, middle back, thighs) with the parts that's exposed to the sun on daily basis..
you can see that areas that rarely exposed are LESS DRY, FLAKY, THIN, SHOW BROWN DISCOLORATION, WRINKLES and any other sign of aging..
however, this personal test only works if you're over the age of 30 because (as i quoted again..) that's about the time the accumulated sun damage begins to show up.. so if you're underage, just check out your parents or even your grandparent's inner arm and see the shocking difference..
i wanna share a lil' bit, as simple as possible about UV radiation.. bear me..
there are 3 types of UV rads..
1. UV A : this cause a skin tanning..
2. UV B : this damages the skin's genetics structure, causing mutation and abnormal growth patterns ---> LEAD TO CANCER..
3. UV C : it's filtered out by the atmosphere so none of 'em could reach the earth..
remember this.. all UV radiations are strongest between 10am to 2pm.. keep that in mind!!!
another thing i wanna share is about SPF (Sun Protecting Factor).. what's SPF really means?? the answer is this.. for example : if you can stay out in the sun about 15 minutes before your skin starts to turn pinkish, applying sunscreen with SPF 15 will allow you to stay in the sun 15 times longer..
mmm.. what's to talk about next.. this getting interesting don't you think??? LOL.. ohhh, i know.. be a smart buyer.. keep this in mind and keep a note..
if your sunscreen contain at least one of these, you'd be just fine..
* if you're using several skin care products, make sure you put your sunscreen LAST!!
* if you're wearing makeup, pressed powder with SPFs is a great way to touch up the makeup during the day while reapply more sunscreen at the same time..
SUNSCREEN is WATER RESISTANT, NOT WATERPROOF..
means : the SPF value has been measured after application and 40 minutes of water immersion..
VERY WATER RESISTANT means : SPF value on the label must remain intact after 80 mins of water immersion..
so if your sunscreen doesn't say water resistant, don't use it for exercise or swimming..
hahhh.. that's all for me now.. lots of quotes from Paula Begoun's "The Beauty Bible".. hope you found my blog here useful, for the sake of our health..
The thing with sunscreen is we have so many similar yet different information and opinion depending on who make the statement. But I think it is safe to say that we all agree that sun rays is not good for our skin and therefore we should minimize any damage it may cause. Great post and very informative!
Great review! I have gotten laser hair removal, but haven't had the cash to go in to get extra body parts zapped. I have tried the no-no to miscellaneous results, so possibly this is what I'm looking for. Thank you for sharing these details. More power to you and to your sun damage in Houston.

129-Episode 129: Surprise Attack
The Clan had been waiting for him to decide on a plan to bring down Starz Castle.
In another day, they would launch an all-out assault on Sturt's Castle.
The Clan was confident that if Lemayl's army moved properly according to the plan, they should be able to successfully control the enemy's castle.
(.........One thing that bothered me.
That meant that not long ago, a unit with a large catalytic machine had left the enemy lines and headed to Mount Torai, far from the battlefield.
No matter how much I thought about it, I couldn't think of any reason to deploy troops to Mount Torai now.
They would definitely not be able to reach the magic here from there.
But with Thomas as the enemy general, it is possible that this is some kind of plan.
It's very uncomfortable, but since we don't know what kind of plan it is, we can't act carelessly, we can only monitor it.
Robinson, the Clan's right-hand man, said regretfully.
'Don't blame yourself, Robinson. What, this has not been decided as the enemy's plan.'
As far as the Clan was concerned, since they hadn't been able to read the enemy's plan, they hoped that that was an action due to irregular trouble for the enemy as well, and that they never had to aim for anything.
Then suddenly I heard the sound of rain with a whisper.
It wasn't just rain, it was pretty heavy rain.
'Rain? It was supposed to be a sunny day earlier...
Unusual...
Suddenly it was raining after it had been sunny a few moments ago, which was unusual but not impossible.
However, the Clan felt a stirring in their hearts.
''Master Clan!
A magical soldier rushed underneath the Clan.
They seemed to be in quite a hurry.
''What's wrong?''
'This rain is magical! Probably due to the large catalytic machine at Mount Torai!
'Water magic...? I'm told that water magic stones can also be found in Berzd... but the aim is...
It's an ambush! That's all I can think of!
Robinson said loudly.
'We need to get our men ready for battle now but with all this rain, it's hard to get instructions... magical soldiers! Use sound magic!
All right!
At this very moment, as the sorcerer is getting ready.
'Wow!'
Enemy!
I began to hear the soldiers shouting in anger.
'Shucks!'
They were taken by surprise before they could give instructions.
This would confuse the soldiers and make it harder for them to follow instructions.
From his own experience, the Clan recognized that they were in quite a predicament right now.
''My aim is the Clan-sama's order! Please get out of here!
The Clan knows that, but they won't let the enemy off the hook so easily either.
They must be planning a surprise attack while successfully blocking the escape route.
The rain has made it difficult to notice the approach of the enemy and also reduce our ability to act.
If I moved here and now, there was a high possibility that I would be killed.
Anyway, he called out to the soldiers in a position where he could reach them and fortified his own surroundings. In this state, he intended to surpass until reinforcements came rushing in. I continued to give orders to the magic soldiers to calm down and run to where I was, anyway.
However, the enemy soldiers were more agile than I expected, and they had already reached the perimeter of the clan.
The quality of the soldiers was quite high. The soldiers in the vicinity of the Clan are naturally only elite, but they are even being pushed.
Finally, one soldier slashed at the Clan.
He managed to respond with the sword he was holding and cut down the opposite way.
This time, several soldiers slip out at the same time and come to take the Clan's head.
I try to deal with them somehow, but if it's a few mooks, they're all skilled soldiers.
Three of them could be cut down, but the rest swing their swords at the Clan's neck.
(I can't avoid it! You're going to die! (In a place like this!)
He was ready to die, but on the way, something pierced the neck of the soldier who was about to slash the Clan, spewing out a lot of blood and killing the soldier.
It looked like someone had thrown a knife.
Surprised, he checked the throw and saw the figure of a man who looked like a child, Pham, there.
