Su and her ways
By John Wan on December 1, 2021 in A New Chapter
Shortly after 10am this morning, I dropped Su off around an MTR exit at Mei Foo so that she could take the Tuen Ma Line to Yuen Long from where she would catch a taxi to Tai Tong Shan Road to join her photography tutor on an outing with more students to the Sweet Gum Woods to take photos of the red leaves. The leaves on these trees, not to be mistaken with maple leaves, change color to different shades of yellow, orange and red around this time particularly when there is an abrupt fall in temperature, and which would present an excellent opportunity for photo outings. Su had joined a six-week class run by a Mr Tony Ho whom we had met in April 2011 on a trip to Korea to take pictures of the cherry blossoms, which is another story which you can read more about on page 324 of my autobiography if you are interested. Her primary motivation for going on the course is to learn more on where the scenic sites in Hong Kong are, rather than to brush up on her photo taking skills. Today is the first outing. To plan for the trip, Su had made me do a recce with her last week on my electric car, arguing that it won't cost much and is environmentally friendly. We had a dry run indeed exactly a week ago on a sunny day. We were lucky to find a proper parking space before mid-day, took some pictures, walked the planned scenic route which is short and pleasant, but ended up doing the walk to the Reservoir Islands Viewpoint (commonly known in Cantonese as the Thousand Islands Viewing Platform) and back or around 10 km in all, which is part of Stage Ten of the Trailwalker, but that would be yet another story.
The recce went well indeed, the GPS on her iPhone having worked perfectly; and I was to do a repeat performance with her this morning, which I had agreed. We got up before 7 am, had breakfast, put on warm clothes and packed extra stuff, including a camera, water and spare clothes, and set off at 8:50 am. The GPS began okay and we were on our way to Yuen Long on Route 9, but then it stopped working, by which time I had already done over 30 km. Now, the land trip through the toll road with Tai Lam Tunnel from Mei Foo should take less than 25 minutes for the 27 km, which we had tried last week. The longer trip through New Territories Circular Road without tolls, which we also tried last week, would be around 37 km and would take longer. Su reckoned that her iPhone was out of data and hence couldn't connect to the GPS. We decided to exit to Shek Kong before taking Route 9 back to Kowloon and Mei Foo. I had clocked in 66 km when I dropped her off.
Su met up with her tutor and others on the outing and I would leave her to describe her sojourn on her blogs. Such is how Su would operate in general and I have grown accustomed to her ways, after more than 12 years, so that nothing would surprise me. Let me cite some more examples from this week alone.
Last Thursday, she decided to replenish the wine glasses that Peter Kwan had left us, half of which had been broken. We found a shop very close to Sheung Wan MTR that sold those and bought six, because they came in six in a box. Afterwards, we had our favourite comfort food, congee and noodles, from a shop nearby. The shop bought memories: years ago, when I had yet to meet Su and was living by myself and nursing a bad cold in Goldwin Heights, my good friend Alex Kwan – who had since passed away – had bought food there and taken them to my bedside. Again, that would be another story. After lunch, Su suggested we went to Wing On to look at the wine cabinets. Wing On was nearby. We found one that can hold 140 bottles, which apparently was the last one available, as confirmed by the Floor Supervisor, who then gave us more details on delivery, installation and other logistics. We would be buying it as a display item and hence at a discount. Back home, we checked the measurements and Su asked me to make an immediate trip back to Wing On to buy the thing, for it would only cost me $2 each way on MTR. I was somewhat tired out by then and demanded my cat nap, which was granted and which I duly took. Taking advantage of the location of our dinner appointment in the evening, we took the MTR to Wing On, placed the order and paid, and took MTR back to Lai Chi Kok for the restaurant at D2 Place. Su had bought quite a few bottles of good reds – may be five dozen – not counting the two dozen of her staple Veuve Clicquot which she bought from AMC because the price was right, and two additional dozens of Italian reds she ordered at the dinner at D2 Place through impulse, which had yet to be delivered. On Monday, Wing On called to advise that a new shipment had arrived such that they would deliver us a new cabinet at the same price rather than the display item, albeit one or two weeks later.
Still on Monday, Su messaged me when I was just about to have lunch: She had booked both of us for the booster shots – the third jab – in the same afternoon at 3:30 pm in Sha Tin, as a consequence of which I felt I should decline the drinks I was offered at lunch, to the great amazement and disappointment of a senior brother. But after the jabs, we detoured to Kowloon Tong to pick up two dozen oysters which were so good that Su couldn't refuse uncorking a bottle of champagne, to mark our successful third jabs.
I would sign off for now and take my cat nap, while waiting for her to turn up.

Is it really the end of July? I'm truly stunned…it feels like this year is a blur and is going by way too fast. But, what can you do?
I love this outfit because it's quite quirky. The pink lace with the beige wrap skirt looks unusual, in an interesting way!
The skirt is secondhand and the top, I bought on eBay! 🙂 The hair clips, I bought on Etsy. They are fun and I'm loving the whole double-hair-clip look; it has a playful vibe.
So, reading several blogs here on WordPress, I've seen a few posts where people have shared facts about themselves, just for fun so their readers can get to know them better. I thought it would be fun to do this, so I came up with 10!!!
#1. I love reading (which, if you've followed my blog long enough, you know that!) More specifically though, my two favorite genres are military and true crime. My favorite military book is American Sniper by Chris Kyle and my favorite true crime book is Zodiac by Robert Graysmith (it's about the Zodiac killer, and it's terrifying).
Currently, I'm reading this! And it's GOOD.
#2. I can't stand anything with caramel, or anything caramel-flavored.
#3. I'm a big fan of ASMR videos.
I really love that ASMR in general has finally been given a name in the last few years!
#4. I'm terrified of blimps.
#5. I'm also terrified of E.T.
I'm serious. I still can't watch the movie again!!! The opening scene is the scariest thing I've ever witnessed and I had recurring nightmares as a child about E.T. I was so scared he was going to get me at night. If I see anything that is E.T.-related, I get chills to this day!
Aaaaand I just imagined E.T. piloting a blimp. FEAR FUSION.
#7. I've never been on an airplane, but I've been on an Army helicopter.
#8. If I could visit any area in the entire world, it'd be the Persian Gulf.
#9. My favorite candy is Swedish Fish.
#10. I've never rode on a horse, but I've rode on a camel once.
Hope you enjoyed these random (and very true) facts about me. It was fun to write, I must admit!
I look dang proud of myself in that picture and it fits so perfectly with the blog post title! LOOOOOOOOOOOL!
Sometimes now, I'll literally just sit and stare at my keyboard when I should actually be typing instead. It's soooo pretty.
Just like C3PO at the pod race on Tatooine.
I'm not sure what changed, but my self-consciousness really reduced over time. Of course, we will always have self-conscious moments, but now if I do something or say something that I feel is a bit awkward, I actually find it hilarious…and kind of fun, honestly.
Remember this scene from Dumb and Dumber?? I feel this is the best and most accurate depiction of some of my conversations with people. 😀 Hahaha!
So to anyone who feels awkward, and sees it as a bad thing, I highly encourage you to roll around in it rather than try to hide it. Wear it like a cape, or a tiara…or both!
Hey, like my skirt? It's another thrift find!
EVIDENCE. I think I'll take a loooong break from making any new headbands (don't hold me to that, though) and instead I think I'll make a new ring for myself. Not to put on Etsy, but one just for moi!
I think worms are really cute, so I'm going to make myself a cute worm statement ring. With hearts, in fact.
As you can see, I did some art shopping! I needed some new small canvas' and specific acrylic paint for my next creation. I hope it turns out the way I envision it…fingers crossed!
I love the feeling of excitement before creating something new. You really have no idea how it will turn out, no?
Today's ensemble is simply pink, with butterfly accents. Sometimes I'm not sure what to wear, so I stick with certain things I know I love, such as pink, and my butterfly headband that seems to go with anything when I don't know which headband to wear!
Today was super busy, and I plan to share more about the neat event happening next Thursday! I'll save it for next week though, and I'm really looking forward to sharing it.
I have here, "Dreaming of Dubai" and "Swedish Summer".
Dubai, UAE is a place I've always found to be mysteriously beautiful. I love the desert and the idea of a large city where the desert meets the sea is quite enchanting. With that in mind, I decorated the first ring with lots of beige and gold accents!
Speaking of places in the world…I recently discovered that there is a country called Azerbaijan.
It popped up in my international viewers list on WordPress last week. As a geography nerd, I had never heard of it. So of course I thought, there's a country I haven't heard of? NO WAY!
I watched a few travel vlogs on Youtube about it. Fascinating! I really like the fact that I've never lost my fascination with different countries. In elementary school, I kept a world map in my binder and would browse through it at school, imagining what the countries looked like.
Then sometimes at recess (when I wasn't in the library looking at books, LOL) I remember having a friend and we would play out on the grass, pretending we were in a different place in the world and pointing with admiration at imaginary buildings.
Everything about this place is beautiful! It was very windy though, unfortunately. Other than that, it was a perfect day. As you can tell from the title, this place is dedicated to letting you experience a taste of Denmark!
I am so glad I did! These were DELICIOUS. They were very puffy and drizzled with strawberry jam. Yum!
Oh my gossshhhhhh. This place was so awesome; it is a year-round Christmas shop. There were so many cute ornaments! I was like a little kid in a candy store.
Tiny little Danish people on the top tier! eeeee!
I went to Mortensen's Danish Bakery. This place had the cutest pastries!
I have no idea what they were exactly, besides MAGICAL. I heard the words "chocolate" and "raspberry" and was immediately sold. That, and they're adorable!
It's a good thing I dressed for the elements today and wore my romper with a cardigan. They're shorts, which proved to be very practical considering the wind was blowing so hard. It's a windy day even here in my hometown, with 20-30 mph winds!
Hope you enjoyed reading! See you next time!


This small book will call to you on days that the janitor reads you the riot act, the church secretary jumps down your throat and those home school parents just won't leave you alone. In this book, Doug Fields shares the wisdom that has helped him survive over 25 years in ministry: Just say No.
That two letter word (that often feels like a four letter word to some people!) has the power to help you stay in ministry for the long haul and keep your family intact and thriving.
From the book: Jesus said 'no' to good things… 'no' to significant things… 'no' to important people. He was 100%God/100% human and he had limits. He needed solitude. He needed time to reflect and pray and nourish his spiritual life and time away from those bonehead disciples. He needed space. And, Jesus had a lot to do. You try being the Savior of the world! He had a short window to accomplish his life mission and yet he seemed to prioritize and live so different than we do. To say 'no' in ministry is to be radical…to be radical is to be counter-cultural…to be counter-cultural is to be like Jesus…to be like Jesus should become our goal.

Cricket is the major sport in the Summer Term. Denstone field 11 sides at all levels and age groups and the College has a magnificent 1st XI pitch and pavilion that is the envy of many.
Cricket at Denstone continues to be very strong. The cricket club is open to boys and girls in all years at the College and is capable of running eleven teams on a Saturday, and plays all the leading cricketing schools in the area. The Denstone 1st XI cricket pitch is positioned in the centre of the school and right beside the Chapel has helped to maintain the popularity and success of the game at Denstone and it is the envy of visiting schools.
The two key aims are for boys to enjoy their cricket and be the best that they can be. To this end all teams have their own dedicated coach who works with the boys throughout the summer. All of the 'A' teams play against local county sides, performing well. The U14 team regularly wins the Schools' Cup and thereby at U15 level competes in the Lord's Taverners trophy. The College reached the final of this most prestigious of national competitions and the semifinals of the national schools' t20 competition. Several boys have achieved County representation at their age group level (on average about four players in each age group) and many boys go on to play at a high standard of cricket after school. Denstone has produced numerous 1st Class cricketers: Aneesh Kapil (Surrey) Greg Cork and Harvey Hosein (both Derbyshire). Girls' cricket has also begun to thrive and we will continue field teams at under 13 and under 15.
Central to the importance of cricket at Denstone has been the recruitment of Director of Cricket Performance Simon Guy, one of the most experienced Level 4 coaches in the country. He has work for England Under 17 and Under 19 following his 16 year career for Yorkshire and Suffolk. He coaches all year round, and uses indoor nets during the Michaelmas and Lent term or when the weather is poor. Pupils are also fortunate to receive one-to-one coaching from the more experienced members of the cricket staff, with regular access to the bowling machine. Denstone Cricket continues to flourish. If you would like to discuss the opportunities for cricket at the College please do not hesitate to contact Mr TAH Williams via email.

Abu Dhabi Desert Challenge: 2000 km in five days
Fri, 04/08/2011 - 10:25 — rtfreevideo
Rating: Select ratingPoorOkayGoodGreatAwesome
Endurance drivers from around the world have been spending five days crossing inhospitable terrain in the Abu Dhabi Desert Challenge.
120 entrants took part in the contest, which is the second round of the FIA Cross Country Rally World Cup, negotiating over 2,000km of tough desert terrain.
The races are divided into four categories — bikes, quads, cars and trucks.
The 21st Desert Challenge ended with a confident victory for France's Stephane Peterhansel, who won a gold medal for the seventh time.
Among the quads, Nicholas Black completed an unlikely victory in his first-ever Abu Dhabi desert challenge, while the track category was won by Eduard Nikolayev in his Kamaz-Master truck.
Last year's winner, Leonid Novitsky, together with Andreas Schulz, finished the race in joint second.
"I feel tired but satisfied. We did our job, our best in this challenge. We will work on our mistakes", he said.
The leading Arab drivers were Yahya Bil Helei and his co-driver Khalid Al kendi, who took the fourth place in their Isuzu pick-up track.

On Halloween Day, 1988, the center did a gross sale of only $29, including bowling and bar. The following morning, Blancher took it over. Deborah Blancher says that she thought her husband was a little "nuts". Indeed, Blancher almost proved his critics right. Two months after he bought Mid City Lanes, he was talking with his lawyer about bankruptcy proceedings. His bank turned him down for another loan. Still, he kept the lanes open, hiring local artist Tony Green to paint an optimistic mural depicting the former Pelican Stadium. And rather than add amenities such as underground ball returns or automatic scoring, he changed the impact pinsetter to a magic eye. I wanted the place to look just like 1958," he reasons.
Tony Green was born in Naples, Italy, in 1954 and grew up on New Orleans' West Bank. He began his studies at the Corcoran School of Art in Washington, D.C.; and over the years continued to travel and study in many parts of the world. In 1982, Tony returned to his native Italy- beginning a yearly tradition that has lasted for more than a decade. Today, and for the past 16 years, Tony spends each summer in Venice, capturing on canvas the romance of the city, its people and street scenes. His chief sources of inspiration are Velasquez, John Singer Sargent and the Spanish painter Sorolla.
Driven by the belief that "marketing has replaced mechanics and numbed our souls", he says- Tony adheres to a self imposed program of study, observation and practice. To counteract what he calls the increasing lack of "basic mechanics" that have for centuries been the foundation of truly great art, Tony calls upon the arts community to encourage a reemphasis on technique- by engaging more good teachers to pass on to today's artists the skills of the old and new masters. Tony's national international awards over the last twenty years are matched only in number by his commissions and solo exhibitions. New Orleans residents know Tony's work from the various murals about town- including the Storyville Music Hall triptyc that now finds its home in the Louisiana State Museum's Jazz Collection; and the equally well known Mid-City Bowling Lanes Mural of life in the 1950's.

If the followers of all religious denominations, would come together with one accord like the Disciples of old at Pentecost, then pray with all the earnest sincere longings of their souls, and stand with hands extended to the Heavenly Father to send His Holy Spirit, to carry into their souls the Divine Love, then those who obtain this Great Free Gift, would become so filled with such wonderful power and enthusiasm, they would go out in the world and proclaim the "True Gospel revealed by Jesus."
When sufficient numbers obtain this great transformation, then Christianity will become established on a firm foundation, and even penetrate through what is called the iron curtain. Warfare and strife and all other evils that cause countless thousands to mourn, will vanish from the face of the earth.
The god of war will hide its ugly head, and men's hearts and souls will sing for very joy.
The material things that men have been fighting over and still fighting for, will not be "yours and mine, but become the ours."
Then men will become truly brothers, and a Kingdom of Heaven will be let down upon earth, and a lasting peace prevail, and warfare and strife cease.

15 Worst Stephen King Books (From Bad to Horrible)
By Robert Milakovic / March 21, 2021 December 24, 2022
To write a list of worst books from the master of horror himself, Stephen King, is not only a problematic but daunting task. There is a legion of fans out there who will argue that the master of horror has no lousy books.
They will say most lists that feature King's work are subjective; they would be right to a point, but King himself has stated that he has better books than others.
That is how this list will take place, not through calculating grammar or summoning of dark things through some shimmering thinny, rather a subjective list of his lesser works to his more unfortunate. The list is King only, no collaborations, so works with Peter Straub or others won't be considered. Things like tv scripts to book form will be. Warning spoilers ahead.
Worst Stephen King books
15. The Dark Tower V: Wolves of Calla
14. Cell
13. The Dark Tower IV: Wizard and Glass
12. Dreamcatcher
11. The Regulators
10. The Storm of the Century
9. The Tommyknockers
8. Insomnia
7. From a Buick 8
6.The Girl Who Loved Tom Gordon
5. Duma Key
4. Geralds Game
3. Blaze
2. Joyland
1. Rose Madder
We are completely aware that not all of you will agree with us on this list, but we have tried to make it as non-biased as possible. And we have to tell you, even though we love Mr. King, he wrote some bad books throughout his career. Most of the bad ones come from his time as an addict, and that is something he personally recognizes. So let's take a look at the 15 worst Stephen King books.
The fifth entry of the Magnus opus series by Stephen King conjures classic themes from Kurosawa film Seven Samurai. A small group of brave samurai defends a village; the same principle then repeats in the Magnificent Seven though this time, instead of sword-wielding samurais, you get gunslinging cowboys.
The Dark Tower V: Wolves of Calla sees Roland, a gun-wielding knight errand and Ka-tet crew take on, lightsaber carrying, doctor doom green cloaked army of killer robots that launch killer spheres right out of a horror movie.
The book suffers from convolution too much happening at the same time and feeling too unwieldy at times. To its credit, it does manage to present us with a glimpse of how the gunslingers operated before the world moved on and offers needed character development for Roland and his crew, but like other entries in the Dark Tower series, this entry advances the plot somewhat, yet the author throws in multiple storylines to an already lore massive story; it just a lot to take on.
The tale of an apocalyptic level event that rocks the world emitted by a pulse to all cell phone users is, in itself, not the strongest of storylines. It feels like King was trying to fulfill a promise he made in one of his Dark Tower books, where he referenced one world that died and tried to fill in that gap with this novel.
It is not only that the premise of the book is weak, the storytelling itself feels rushed, with the group of survivors not only dealing with zombie-like creatures but with other survivors with psionic abilities or what is known as the touch in the worlds of Stephen King.
The ending also suffers from Stephen Kings inability to orchestrate a proper end to his world level threats. He has done so in another book like The Stand. This time the all too personal tale of a zombie apocalypse that figures out the cure is left unanswered. The story fails to deliver any type of satisfying ending. It feels like an unfished episode of The Walking Dead after the death of Rick.
The fourth entry in the Dark Tower series suffers from an abrupt slowdown in the meta tale called the epic quest for the Dark Tower. The group goes from battling the Tic Tok man to sitting around a campfire at night, which will last as long as it needs for Rolands' tale to be told.
The premise tries to be a coming-of-age story of a young man finding out his parents aren't perfect, in a complicated magical world, where belief gets easily manipulated into committing mistakes such as seeking out his test of manhood to early. The story introduces new characters, our hero falls in love, a powerful artifact is revealed, and they even fight a witch.
Despite its effect on the Dark Tower's overall meta tale, the book delivers a blow to the tempo of the series. Readers definitely wanted to know more of our gunslinging protagonist beyond the fact that he was obsessed with the dark tower he would sacrifice children for it. It just could have been handled differently in maybe later in the series or better splayed out in 2 books.
One of the better book premises presented by Stephen King is that evil is evil for its own sake and, as such, can be dealt with accordingly. The tale presented here starts with bullies making fun and even harassing a special needs child.
They really instead to hurt him, for no other reason than he is just different. Thanks to 4 young friends, they save the boy from the bullies and become fast friends. The story continues in a reunion where they get together in a cabin for a hunting trip. They reminisce about their childhood and how by spending time with their unique needs friend, they acquired psychic power like telepathy and the ability to see human movement.
However, the story progresses as the reunion suddenly turns into a survival epic as the 4 friends confront an alien invasion. It is up to them to work out how to save themselves and even the world.
The problem here is that it just does not feel like a King book. The story is more horrifying than scary, feeling it's more like an H.P Lovecraft book; it is filled with body horror with people getting infected by parasites at some point; there is a shit weasel involved. Though loyal to his own rules since, in this case, the good guys do have a chance at winning, unlike a Lovecraft where everything is doomed. Yet victory comes at a stiff price.
Printed under the name Richard Bachman one of Stephen King's nom de plume, this misbegotten story of an ancient evil named Tak, that possesses a powerfully psionic boy. Who is so power full he can conjure almost anything he can imagine but is limited to what his mind can mostly focus on, and that cartoons and westerns.
The evil Tak uses this to his advantage to sow chaos in the neighborhood, killing people by summoning henchmen in red vans driving around shooting. They are called The Regulators like western show the boy enjoys so much. Eventually, the whole area is turned into a western town with no means of escape. It's a battle for the soul of an innocent boy waged by an ancient evil vs. a people caught in extraordinary events.
Here the problem is the flimsy premise. King released an alternate universe tale with the same characters, albeit in different circumstances and slightly different takes on a much better book. The Regulators feel more like a half concocted tv episode of Black Mirror that just didn't make it to the second production rounds.
Based on the T.V. script, this story is one of the weaker approaches to the worlds of Stephen King. The premise is promising as an ancient evil returns to a town where he made a pact.
He insists he is only there for what is rightfully his and that the storm will dissipate and disappear once acquired what he needs. He needs are the town's children; obviously, the local sheriff and the townspeople raise up in arms protesting the old wizard price.
Sheriff Mike Anderson takes on the old mage Andre Linoge for the souls of the children, as he investigates how deeply connected the ancient demon is to the town, and in doing so, reveals secrets of the people who live there.
Sounds like a terrific premise, one King would eventually master with the book Under the Dome. The characters are too generic for something of this magnitude, and sometimes it's very predictable; the reader knows the town is sinful, they understand people will get exposed. Its saving grace is its ending. The mage seems inappropriately named. He should be known as Randall Flagg, not Andre Linoge. Though they could be the same man.
A wild west fiction writer stumbles upon a crashed space ship; upon gaining access to the interior, a strange gas is released. This gas changes people and allows them to become like the aliens who once inhabited it.
Upon being exposed to the gas, most become genius like level inventors; though most willfully ignore some of their creations' ethical side. Our protagonist is mostly immune, thanks to a metal plate in his head. He faces the townspeople as they change and start to lose their sanity.
He knows he could leave but decides to stay to try to help a friend from becoming one of those creatures. He battles his way onto the ship and eventually activates it with limited telepathy causing it to launch into space and kill most people who were becoming aliens. The U.S government then cleans up the rest.
Like Dream Catcher, this is a Lovecraft inspired story; that is not a bad thing in this case. What makes this story stand out is the flimsy rationale of the protagonist. King usually writes a more honest depiction of his characters. Look to The Mist as such an example of character motivation and characterization. Here it feels forced that our protagonist has to endure such hardships.
This fantasy horror mix is one of the most King universe related stories. It links to The Dark Tower, Geralds Game, and many others. The story itself is about Ralph Roberts and how, in the later stages of his life starts to suffer from insomnia and, as a side effect, gains a form of the second site that allows him to see things that are not there, like auras, a benevolent figure called the Green Man and little bald sprites he calls Bald Doctors among other disturbing imagery.
The gift allows him to stand against evils being manipulated by the Bald Doctors that act like influencers for sin. Taking a person's passion and weaponizing it. Ralph does his best to oppose the particular sprite that seems to work for chaos but is later revealed to be working for the Crimson King. A figure appears to feed on confusion in the multiverse and is also the main antagonist in The Dark Tower.
The story is too complicated to fully enjoy it. One has to be well versed in the Dark Tower multiverse. This seems like a difficult prerequisite since the reader would have to have read at least the first 4 books in the Dark Tower series. The story also becomes complex as the stakes seem to climb ever higher for one retired old man to save the universe.
This mix of action horror sees Ned, son of a recently deceased police officer, visit his fathers' work friends in what seems to be an attempt to better understand both the passing of his parent and his lifestyle.
The story revolves around the police troop telling Ned various encounters to artifacts and creatures produced by the Buick. It is revealed that the car is not really an automobile; with no working engine and an immovable steering wheel, it remains a mystery as who dove it up and abandoned it at the counter. The main about Ned, as he listens to the information and determines that the Buick is definitely part of his father's death.
Determined to blow it up, the troop proceeds to intervene, knowing that the car cannot be destroyed since any damage is magically repaired. The police troop suspects it is really a portal between dimensions that funnels reality like a pressure valve. Once the cops save Ned from being sucked into a doorway, he decides to become a police officer himself so he can keep an eye on the Buick and whatever it spews out.
The book is definitely some form of an allegory of man's obsession with dangerous contraptions and its determination to try to control it. Unfortunately, the storytelling mechanic seems silly—one of the weaker multi-narrative books presented by the King of horror.
A family goes hiking in the woods to get away from their more mundane problems. Our young protagonist Trisha a 9-year-old girl falls and becomes hopelessly lost in the ever-expanding wilderness. The young girl takes inventory of her supplies and finds little food and water, plus her game boy and Walkman; she also finds nourishment from some vegetation in the area that she recognizes as safe to eat.
Trisha walks in the woods, hoping to find her way before running out of supplies; eventually falling from weakness brought about hunger and dehydration. This is where she starts to hallucinate. Part of her journey becomes that of a magical-realism trip facing some pretty horrifying obstacles that end with her facing what she believes is the God of the Lost.
The child in peril story is not a new one for our author. He has placed children in harm's way, from the characters in I.T. to the protagonist in Heart in Atlantis. This one stands out as she is alone in what feels like an allegorical tale of earning the right to grow up and surviving. It almost feels like a Niel Gaiman story, where the protagonist is caught between two realms, both equally real. That's the problem. It deviates too much from King's style. Then there is the fact it is poorly aged. The title, especially the pitcher Tom Gordon's name, isn't very well known unless you're a big fan of baseball.
Edgar Freemantle loses his arm in an industrial accident. The rehab is painful and causes him to have violent mood swings. These are usually directed towards his wife, who then files for a divorcee. Edgar decides to move down to Florida, specifically Duma Key; here, he takes up sketching and painting once again as a form of therapy.
While painting in his new dwelling, he discovers he can affect the outside world's reality through his canvas. What starts out as a blessing with Edgar using his skills to heal and even avenge events; will eventually find that the paintings are cursed with anyone who possesses them are in danger of being driven insane and committing horrible violence. The tale takes on a robust supernatural turn as Edgar and company face down ghosts and curses, which eventually leads to Edgars' final piece on canvas, the destruction of Duma Key itself.
The story lack originality coming from Stephen King. The problem here is that he has done this story and presented these types of abilities before. Patric Danville, from two other King novels, can also influence reality, much like Edgar. The ghost curse and ghost story are also trope heavily leaned on by the author in previous work. The saving grace is that it is, in fact, a scary story at some points.
A sex game gone wrong; Geralds Game sees Jessie Burlingame and her husband Gerald travel to a secluded cabin in the woods for an impromptu sex-capade. Gerald handcuffs his wife to the bedpost, but this time Jessie is not feeling right with the sex game. She pleads with him to stop, suddenly realizing her rejections seem only to excite him more. To her horror-filled realization, he will try to rape her.
She kicks Gerald in the chest, causing him to have a heart attack. Here the story takes on a psychological horror narrative as Jessie realizes no one will miss her or her husband for some time. She has to find a way to free herself from the bedpost all the while. She faces repressed memories, hallucinations of herself, and even an apparition with a wicker basket full of gold and bones, a threatening figure who might be the ghost of her father that raped her as a child.
Once set free, she flees the cabin to realize too late that the wicker basket apparition is real and wants to capture her. She succeeds in avoiding the threat and escapes but crashes her car. While recuperating, she then confronts her past issues and realizes the wicker basket man was actually a serial killer that has been caught. She can finally sleep by the end of the tale.
King's main characters all seem to have one thing in common. They all love talking to themselves out loud. True, the interaction allows for the narrative to flow, but it must be a world filled with people walking down the street, speaking loudly to themselves. The internal journey was taken by Jessie also seems like a forced therapy session that if these types of stressful situations actually worked, would be part of regular psychological sessions. Fortunately, it is still a good enough read.
Printed under Richard Bachman, Blaze is one of the shorter King stories. The main protagonist, Clatyon Blaisdell Jr. Aka Blaze, is a man who suffers from a mental handicap but gifted with prodigious physical strength. A calamity-prone con artist who comes up with a plan to kidnap a baby from a wealthy family to ransom it. We find out along the way that Blaze either hallucinates or can see the ghost of his former partner in crime George Thomas, the man who originally came up with the idea, and who still finds ways to help Clayton. The story evolves into Clayton, eventually loving the child and confronted with the idea of giving it back.
The story is a significantly evolved story for the pseudonym Richard Bachman, and it is impossible not to compare this story to Johns Steinbeck's Of Mice and Men. Our 300-pound protagonist is hard to identify with but does draw the audience's sympathy as a man with a mental problem trying to find his place in the world.
Joyland is a coming-of-age story combined with a fated ghost story that eventually misses its mark. The protagonist Devin takes up a summer job at a carnival. There the local fortune teller divines Devins's future, where he learns he will meet two children that will have a significant impact on his life.
One a boy with a dog and a girl with a red hat. One of whom will have The Site. Once Devin secures his lodgings, he and his girlfriend agree they will sleep together for the first time soon. This does not happen, and she leaves him, eventually breaking his heart with a particularly harsh letter.
He is struck by depression and stops eating and spends his time listening to music. He finds comfort wearing the carnivals mascot suit and making the children happy. One day he saves a young girl from chocking and a hot dog and becomes a local hero. It is during this time we learn the Haunted House is actually haunted by a murder victim.
Devin becomes particularly interested and starts investigating the case. He becomes close to Annie and her son, who is sick but has The Site. Devin organizes a private visit to the carnival for the ailing child. Here the boy's ability allows the ghost in the haunted house to leave. Devin eventually has sex, faces a murderer, and ends his time at the carnival.
This is a short story that isn't good or bad. There is nothing memorable about it. The characters are bland, the adventure is limited in scope, and the protagonist's motivations are beneath the hero. It honestly suffers from not being a book worth remembering.
This final entry to the list seems a straight up departure for King as he draws inspiration from Greek mythology. Particularly the maze and the minotaur. The story begins with Rose Daniels, a victim of domestic abuse from her violent husband, who also happens to be a policeman. In her most recent beating, Rose lost her 4-month baby and is considering leaving her husband, but his position is reluctant to do so. She decides to stay put, hoping her husband's fits of rage will subside.
She chooses this knowing that she is in danger since Noman is being investigated for assaulting and raping a black woman; the investigation has only made him more violent. It takes 14 years, and a nose bleed to get Rose to flee. Once she does, she arrives in a new city where she makes new friends. They help her settle and once she has a job decides to pawn her wedding ring. She exchanges said ring for a portrait and a date with the pawnshop owner.
The painting is magical in nature and allows her to travel within, here she meets two women Dorcas and Rose Madder. Rose asks her to rescue her baby from the half-blind bull in the labyrinth, which Rose Daniels does. In return, Rose Madder offers her protection. After hunting for his wife, Norman arrives in the city, finds her friends, and eventually finds his wife with another man. The showdown has Rose leading her husband into the painting where Rose Madder kills him. Rose then settles down and has to plant a tree to feed her anger towards.
This is the farthest departure for King. The book itself is mostly memorable because of it. Drawing inspiration from the Greek myths and feeling like another magical-realism story. Trouble is King's work is not half way. If you see a walking dead raised by a cursed cemetery plot, that's what it is. Even the more esoteric monsters like the spider-like creature from the thinny are precisely that. A painting that is both a doorway and a portal to Olympus is definitely a detour.

WarwickTECH president, Artur, at WarwickHACK 2017.
In conversation with WarwickTECH President: Should you create your own startup?
By Sonali Gidwani
Posted in Money, Student Finance, Warwick Finance
This year, we've had the pleasure of speaking to many Warwick startups, but our year's work would be incomplete without speaking to organisations like WarwickTECH, which helps future founders find their feet.
With this in mind, I sat down with Artur Safaryan, who has been with WarwickTECH since its inception in 2014 and most recently served as president this academic year. As we sat in Bar Fusion, the site of many WarwickTECH gatherings, Artur passionately shared with me the need for WarwickTECH, his views on the startup scene at Warwick as well as his own plans for the future and advice for those wanting to live the startup life.
WarwickTECH, which Artur tells me is a startup itself rather than a society, was devised because the founders felt that not enough was being done for the tech community on campus, more specifically those studying STEM-related degrees and those who had the technical skills to put startup ideas into action.
"There was a gap in the intersection of tech skills and startups, and WarwickTECH is the perfect opportunity to fill that gap. There's so much happening globally in tech, but more needs to happen at Warwick in tech."
WarwickTECH is different in that it directly encourages people from more technical backgrounds to approach a startup community catered to them. The startup runs events, speaker sessions and workshops. They also run a yearly hackathon, called WarwickHACK, which serves as a 24-hour period for people from various backgrounds to put their own ideas into action by coding and learning from peers, as well as participating in workshops. WarwickTECH also organizes events at the Shard in London, in order to help future founders engage with the wider UK startup community.
"There is so much happening globally in tech, but more needs to happen at Warwick in tech."
The startup runs skill-building workshop independently and at their hackathon, which includes how to code in Python and C++, all for free. They have also had representatives from GitHub, Twitter and Balderton Capital, among others, on campus to run workshops. Their main aim is to grow and improve the tech community on campus, and therefore allow for more and better startup ideas to come to fruition.
In Artur's opinion, one of the coolest events that he and his team run is the Campus Startup event, held at Bar Fusion, precisely at the table at which we are sitting.
The conversation swiftly moves to Artur's opinion on startups in relation to his career and that of other Warwick students. However, he also warned against starting a startup for the sake of having it on your CV.
"People don't always create something that solves a problem. It's great to see the community grow though, and the growing interest for startups, tech and entrepreneurship. Now is really the time that entrepreneurs are rockstars, and everyone wants to be one. There should be more guidance to how keenness for startups grows, and that guidance is something you can find at WarwickTECH in terms of interactions, events and workshops."
Entrepreneurship is tough. It involves working seven days a week for long hours, and can be very draining. Artur compared it to raising a child; it is something you can't give up on. He strongly encourages that people work with startups in London if they'd like to try out entrepreneurship.
In Artur's opinion, one of the coolest events run by WarwickTECH is Campus Startup.
"Even if you work 2-3 weeks at a startup you learn so much and you get to know the community so well, and that sets you up for starting your own thing," he adds enthusiastically.
His advice for getting an internship at a startup is to not wait for their recruitment cycle, as many do not have one. "Don't wait for a recruitment cycle or graduate scheme, just reach out through Twitter to a startup founder. Reach out directly and don't wait. Everyone is looking to bring in young bright people so there's definitely space for us students to enter the startup world."
Speaking from experience, Artur found work experience last summer at the startup accelerator MassChallenge, one of the biggest in the world, at their London office. They too, didn't have a specific job description or recruitment cycle, and were looking to recruit any time and flexibly. The experience allowed him to see the bigger picture of startups, and he was also involved in running their accelerator programme and seeing how other startups were growing.
"Don't wait for a recruitment cycle, just reach out through Twitter to a startup founder."
"This is the renaissance of entrepreneurship happening in front of our eyes and we need to be a part of it. It didn't take much to get the internship, they want bright people so they're willing to accommodate and see what works for you. I learned so much by just being present there, and learned even more by working actively with them."
Artur would love to start his own company, but if he were to work with a large corporate firm, he says he would "a hundred percent work in HR, as the global future leader is someone who understands people first of all." He assured me that he would much rather work with startups and then start his own. For him, fulfilment is entrepreneurship.
"The global future leader is someone who understands people first of all."
"For our generation, fulfilment at the workplace is incredibly important, and this is what drives me. It's very important to be self-aware, to reflect on and realise what you're trying to achieve."

Yesterday the World Health Organization's (WHO) International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) made waves with a major announcement. They publically acknowledged that processed meats, like bacon and sausage, are a cancer risk. Not only are they a risk, but they're classified in the same category as smoking and asbestos.
On Monday WHO is expected to list hot dogs, bacon, hamburgers, ham, cold cuts, and sausages on its Group 1: Carcinogenic to Humans list of cancer-causing substances (the same category as cigarettes). Red meat (beef, pork, lamb) is also expected to be listed as unhealthy, on its Group 2A: Probably Carcinogenic to Humans.
It's a significant announcement, coming from the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC). The reputable organization is comprised of international experts who pour over the results of different studies (800+ in this case) to determine how likely things are to causing cancer. The group of 22 international experts don't take this job lightly, their decisions carry a lot of clout with governments and regulators.
At first glance, this news sounds equal parts scary and devastating. Bacon is beloved by many. There's an entire dating site dedicated to bacon lovers! Now processed meat is in the same category as cigarettes. That's cause for concern for anyone.
What does all this mean for the average consumer of processed meats? Will people give up meat in droves like the anti-smoking campaigns advocated for? Are we going to start seeing the meat equivalent of nicotine patch? Let's break it down.
What Is Considered a Processed Meat and Red Meat?
For clarity, let's define what is considered processed meat and red meat.
Processed meat is meat that's "not sold fresh." It has been cured, salted, smoked, or preserved in some way (like sausage, salami, pepperoni, hot dogs, and bacon).
Red meat is any meat that's a dark red color before it's cooked. This includes meats like beef and lamb. Pork is also included as a red meat.
Just for reference, chicken, turkey, and fish are considered white meats and are not included in this report.
How Does Processed Meat and Red Meat Cause Cancer?
How processed meat and red meat cause cancer is still largely in question. This announcement stems from numerous studies that link cancers like colorectal (bowel) cancer, to eating processed and red meat.
It's believed that a chemical called haem, part of the red pigment in blood, is broken down from a family of chemicals called N-nitroso compounds. This can damage cells that line your bowel, forcing other cells to work overtime to replicate. This added replication is what increases the probability of errors in your cells' DNA. Which in turn puts you on the path to cancer.
WHO reports that 50 grams of processed meat (approximately two slices of bacon) a day increases your risk of cancer by 18%. An 18 ounce piece of red meat (the size of a deck of cards) can increase your cancer risk by 17%.
Let's give this some context to this with smoking. In some studies, participants who eat diets high in processed meat experience a risk for colorectal cancer that is nearly double that of non-meat-eaters. That's just one tenth of the risk of cancer caused by smoking according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
AICR estimates that half of colorectal cancers could be prevented. In fact, for the most common US cancers can be prevented through healthy changes to Americans' diet, activity habits and weight. This could prevent an estimated one third of cancers, or about 340,000 cases a year.
If you're like me, you're looking for a silver lining. The thought of having to give up juicy hamburgers, crispy bacon, and pepperoni pizza seems unfathomable. Well, there is some good news.
It should be noted that just because processed meats and red meat are now classified along with smoking and alcohol as causes of cancer, it doesn't mean they're necessarily equally dangerous.
A bacon sandwich is not as bad as smoking.
Even an expert from the World Health Organization has a few encouraging words on the matter.
"For an individual, the risk of developing colorectal (bowel) cancer because of their consumption of processed meat remains small, but this risk increases with the amount of meat consumed," said Dr. Kurt Straif from WHO.
Ok, What Can I Eat?
Moderation and balance is the name of the game. Filling your daily caloric needs with fruits, vegetables, and whole grains will help keep you healthy. Red meat can be consumed, but no more than 18 ounces a week. That's about three normal hamburgers. This doesn't count as one burger!
If you must eat red meat, make sure you're eating quality meat. There is evidence that grass-fed beef has cancer-fighting properties! The Nutrition Journal has published research stating that grass-fed cows has twice the level of conjugated linoleic acids than grain-fed cows, which has cancer fighting abilities. That's something to hang your hat on.
Despite all the sensational headlines, all is not lost for meat eaters. The bottom line is as simple as it's always been. Eat a balanced diet and exercise regularly and you're more likely to live a long, happy life.
We already knew processed meat and red meat wasn't great for you. No one was advocating for a diet consisting solely of red meat. (Well, maybe that one guy at CrossFit). Just keep in mind moderation. You don't have to completely eliminate steak from your life, but choosing chicken wouldn't be a bad choice.

Picardy is in the northern France, and has an abundance of canals; this area is often overlooked as people head to the south of France and some sun. Picardy has lots going for it, with places like Amiens and its gothic cathedral; or head east to St Quentin and Noyon; for some modern history its worth spending the time to look at the World War I museum at Thiepval.
If Somme Picardy is the area of France you want to explore on your next boating holiday, have a look at the boats below which are available for you to hire in Somme Picardy.

Lewis Hamilton, 'greatest British sportsman' leading F1's fight against racism, set to be knighted
Sahil Bakshi
Regarded as 'the greatest British sportsman ever' by many, F1 legend Lewis Hamilton is set to be given knighthood after PM Boris Johnson's recommendation.

F1 icon Lewis Hamilton is set to be knighted
Hamilton recently levelled Michael Schumacher's record of 7 world titles
The British racer has been quite vocal about issues of racism in over the past few months
One of the greatest sportspersons from the United Kingdom, Lewis Hamilton, has rewritten record books in Formula 1 with his heroics on the tracks over the last few years. Level with the great Michael Schumacher's record of 7 world titles, Hamilton is set to be knighted after the British Prime Minister Boris Johnson's recommendation.
Hamilton has been an absolute superstar and sporting legend for years, racing his way to consecutive titles and utter dominance on the track for Mercedes F1. While on the racing track, his achievements have been tough to match by competitors, Hamilton has also been leading the charge against racism in the sport.
Since the tragic demise of George Floyd, Hamilton has been quite outspoken about racism and its existence in Formula 1. In July, the 35-year-old was critical of F1 for lacking in fight against racism while the 'Black Lives Movement' took over the entire world.
The sporting icon targeted the top leaders in the sport for keeping silent on the matter, calling it 'embarrassing'. It wasn't even the first time that Hamilton had spoken about the subject of racism publicly. In 2019, he highlighted how there aren't many people of colour in F1 teams.
"I was looking at pictures of all the teams – they do these team photos in front of the garage or on the track – and they've posted all these pictures and I'm like, there are no people of colour in any of these teams," he had said.
Hamilton might be considered as the 'greatest sportsperson in the sport' by many but for him, such labels and achievements mean little if he can't push for a change.
"Competing and winning championships is a great thing, but what does it really mean? It doesn't mean anything unless you can help push for change. I cannot keep silent during this time. I decided that I have to use this platform. There are so many people out there who are struggling and so many who have experienced what I have experienced, and worse," he was quoted as saying by The Guardian.
"It's not enough to be not racist. You have to be anti-racist. You have to be against racism and supporting these movements"
Having dominated the F1 circuit for decades, Hamilton has undoubtedly been worth the honour of knighthood. Now he is set to join the likes of Sir Mo Farah, Sir Andy Murray and Sir Alastair Cook in the list.
He will also become the fourth F1 driver to be knighted after Sir Jack Brabham, Sir Stirling Moss and Sir Jackie Stewart. What makes Hamilton's case special is that he will be the first one to be knighted pre-retirement as all of the other three had received knighthood after hanging up their boots.

Gluten-Free Murder is now live! I had a lot of fun writing this series and hope you'll pop over and have a look.
I've finished a few books in the past week, including one by a favourite author of mine, Mary Higgins Clark, but the one I had to highlight today was Roald Dahl's The BFG. BFG, for those of you who don't know, stands for Big Friendly Giant. It has grown in popularity since being made into a movie by Steven Spielberg. This is such a fun read, filled with lots of scrumdiddlyumptious words!
Here is a fascinating article on Roald Dahl and how many of the odd words in the BFG and other books might have been inspired by his wife's language after she suffered a stroke.
When Sophie is snatched from her bed in the middle of the night by a giant with a stride as long as a tennis court she is sure she's going to be eaten for breakfast. But luckily for Sophie, the BFG is far more jumbly than his disgusting neighbours, whose favourite pastime is guzzling up whoppsy-whiffling human beans. Sophie is determined to stop all this, and so she and the BFG cook up an ingenious plan to rid of the world of the Bloodbottler, the Fleshlumpeater and all their rotsome friends forever.
I tend to find that kind of word play more annoying than entertaining. I'm glad you enjoyed it. Here are mine for the week. Happy reading!
I could see how it could be incredibly annoying to some. For me, Roald Dahl makes it work where others could not. It has a real rhythm and flow to it. But some people wouldn't last past the first page.
