Let's skip the requisite preamble paragraph and get right to it. Here's the plan: in Skyrim, I'm going to use mods and console commands to transform my character into Santa Claus. Then I'm going to deliver gifts to every single NPC household in Skyrim. And I'm going to do it in a single night.
Probably won't check it twice, though.
As an aspiring Santa in Skyrim, I face a few challenges. First, a heavy workload. Even a quick glance at the Elder Scrolls wiki shows 115 NPC homes, and I strongly suspect there are more. For instance, the owners of stores often live in rooms above their shops, not in separate homes, so those aren't listed on that page. Cities have castles and palaces stuffed with NPCs who actually live there. There are orc strongholds, two Dark Brotherhood sanctuaries, a few mills that aren't listed, a couple lighthouses, and so on.
For sanity's sake, I'm going to define NPCs as characters who have actual names. I don't plan to do forts or towers, for example: bandits, while naughty and deserving of coal, typically aren't named, and thus can't be on Santa's list. Same with guard barracks: guards are just guards, they have no outside lives that I'm aware of, other than gently mocking passing heroes. No caves, either: while there are some named NPCs living in caves, they're not getting presents because, look: don't live in a cave, okay? Shacks, typically, are inhabited by monsters, or dead bodies, or no one, so I'm skipping those as well. Following those guidelines, I've come up with my general route.
Now, to look a bit closer at the details. Just by examining the city of Solitude and making notes, I've counted up 76 NPCs who need presents. Granted, many of them share lodgings, so I should be able to dump presents for entire families in a matter of moments, but that's still a lot of individual stops. More than I had really thought there would be.
Which means I really need to do something about the duration of Christmas Eve. First of all, vanilla night is not nearly long enough: the day/night cycle in Skyrim is set at 20:1, where every minute of real-time equals 20 minutes of in-game time. Using the console command 'set timescale to 1' makes the passage of time in Skyrim identical to real-time. Provided I start at 8:00 p.m., and plan to be done by 8:00 a.m., that should give me enough time for the trip.
Quick! Before I decide this is a terrible idea, let's turn me into Santa. Using a new character, I begin by getting in the mood with a little santa cosplay. I found this Santa hat mod, which places a Santa hat (actually, 1000 of them) in a barrel inside Dragonsreach. That's a good start. I also avail myself of a bright red Santa coat with another mod.
As magical as Santa is, I'm still going to refrain from using fast-travel, but I'll make up for it by traveling fast. I use the console code 'player.forceav speedmult' and set it to 800 (the normal movement speed is 100). That makes me fast. Real fast. A test run, however, gives me a new problem.
As you can see, whooshing around Skyrim like Quicksilver means I can very easily fling myself off a cliff and die from the impact. I'm tempted to just use God mode —Santa is of course immortal—but being immortal, in my mind, doesn't mean you can't be killed, just that you won't die naturally from aging. So, I just boost my health to 10,000 using another console code. I also lower my speed back down to 200: that will keep me fleet but I'll still be able to stop easily enough to open doors.
Speaking of doors: how will I get into all of those homes? It's not like I'm going to skulk through the world pick-pocketing the house keys off every single NPC in advance (though, note to self, I should do that sometime). I sure as hell don't want to play the lock-picking mini-game all night. So, I'll do it the same way a morbidly obese elf traditionally fits down a chimney: with magic. I find it a little lame that Skyrim doesn't have a simple Knock spell, which should reside in every magician's bag of tricks, but as with everything, there's a mod for that. This mod lets me cast an Open Lock spell and then crack open a door in short order.
Now that I dash from door to door, and open those doors without lockpicks or keys, there's the question of quickly getting between towns and cities. That's where Rudolph comes in, via another mod. I can summon him with a spell, hop on his back, and fly through the air. Perfect! I also increase his movement speed with another console cheat.
It actually works better than dragon-riding does.
Another issue pops up. If I'm doing this at nighttime, when everyone is at home all snug in their beds in their kerchiefs, caps, and full plate armor, it's going to be dark, possibly very dark. Not only will this make it tough for me to find my way around, but it's going to make for some terrible screenshots. Thankfully, yet another mod gives me a spell to control the weather, including changing it to Sovngarde conditions, which are bright and magical and even shower down little sparkles that look like snow. It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas! I also install a lovely UI mod to help me keep track of the time on-screen. It adds a widget that displays the current time, including a little graphic showing the moon in the sky. Perfect.
Next, I mull over my gift options. It would be in keeping with tradition to actually craft the presents, but I don't want to spend hours standing at a forge, and I don't have an army of unpaid elves to do it for me. So, I rush around to every store in Skyrim, buying the best in armor, weapons, clothing, potions, ingots, and jewelry. I also acquire some charcoal in case I come across anyone naughty. Naturally, to carry all this loot I need to increase my carryweight ('player.setav carryweight 10000' oughta do it).
Okay! I'm ready to spend the night breaking into people's homes all over Skyrim. What could go wrong?
They... don't want to sit in my lap, do they.
Next time: a bunch of things go wrong. Continue to Part 2.

You've all counted him out. But here's to a new Tiger Woods.
After shooting a 72 +1 at the Frys.com Tournament, Tiger Woods has rebounded with two 68's putting him at -4 for the tournament. Although he is well off the lead and has no hope of winning, his form and rhythm is back and he's looking stronger than he has all year.
Most of you believe that Tiger's done. He won't win another major, ever. He won't break Jack's record of 18 majors. But not me. I believe. I believe that Tiger's back and he's going to win some majors again. I believe that he's out of his slump and he's back in his groove, maybe not the same one, but he's found something.
Here's to a new Tiger.
I thought the "tiger" would be flash coming back from his surgery. Wonder what could have given me that idea?
He'll never be back to the level he was before. I might except him being "back" if he wins a major, but people getting excited after this level of performance in the Frys.com Open show just how far he has fallen and how far he still has to go to even get close to being back.
He was drafted by the blacks in the first ever racial draft.

Home › Our Solutions › Compliance › Cyber Security › Knowledge Base FAQs › FAQs › Will Cyber Security Eventually Become Automated?
According to Forbes, the cyber security industry is expected to be worth $170 billion (£120bn) by 2020, so it's obvious that our requirement for cyber protection in the form of security software isn't slowing down anytime soon.
It's true, cyber security definitely can't afford to become complacent. Constant technological developments, new operating systems, and more and more online accounts (e.g. banking, shopping, social media) mean that hackers are always looking for new entry points and vulnerabilities to exploit to gain unauthorised access to valuable data.
Once upon a time, hackers were more like online pranksters out to cause chaos. In the early days of commercial internet use (the 1990s), cyber security focussed more on protecting your documents and files than blocking criminal activity such as theft or identity fraud. As our internet usage has increased, though, so has cyber-crime evolved. Some estimates put 80% of cyber-crime down to organised strikes, with huge profits up for grabs and far less chance of being caught than other types of organised crime, e.g. drug trafficking.
We've witnessed the growing scale of attacks in the news, for example 2016's WannaCry attack on the NHS. This particular malware strain quickly spread around the world, targeting hundreds of thousands of organisations ranging in size and sector in the process. The attack did temporarily take down many NHS computer systems, causing mayhem for A&E departments and GP surgeries, and delaying medical procedures and prescriptions.
Software can help protect your systems and networks by acting as a deterrent for hackers that are looking for an easy target. It has to be stressed that no software can promise 100% protection, but it can make it much harder for cyber-criminals to find access points, serving as a necessary layer of security and diverting hackers' attention elsewhere. Antivirus software works by carrying out regular scans of your device and continuously removing items of malware. It also scans for potentially harmful files hidden in emails and documents. Firewalls work by monitoring what information comes through your internet connection in real time and preventing malicious requests. Acting as a kind of sieve, firewalls are another way to mitigate the risk of a cyber-attack.
All protection techniques you use require regular updates so that they can actually work efficiently to protect you – users should never ignore attempts by security software to update otherwise you are putting your devices at risk. Understanding the importance of this is something that can only be achieved in a workforce through cyber security awareness training. After all, the employees are the first line of defence for organisations, so they need to know what threats are out there. Training means they will no longer be seen as a weak link in the cyber-security chain for hackers to exploit, and instead they are prepared to detect and respond to potential threats efficiently.
Even basic awareness training can significantly improve the cyber-security of a company collectively, seen as a small step to help prevent financial and reputational losses, it can make a big difference should the worse ever happen.
Machine Learning (ML) is a way of achieving Artificial Intelligence (AI). Sometimes confused, AI refers to machines performing tasks that are similar in characteristics of human intelligence, and ML is the ability for a machine to do this without being programmed to do so. In other words, when a computer doesn't need a human to programme it to do something along the lines of human intelligence, AI is at work through the independence of ML. Through being able to "learn" with the data they have, they can improve how they perform to work most efficiently.
The growing developments in AI mean that computers could be seen as outperforming humans in certain task, whether that's playing chess or solving equations. This isn't to say that robots are taking over the human race any time soon, but it does leave some individuals questioning whether humans are even needed anymore in the fight against hackers because of how much computers can do themselves.
When it comes to using ML in cyber security, it usually means using the computer to find anomalies in the form of malicious files, by doing so the computer is detecting threats from hackers before the device is harmed.
As AI teamed with ML is most commonly used to deal with simple threats and attacks. Given that the simplest attacks usually have the simplest solutions, the technologies are also likely be able to find the solutions too, suggesting that a computer could deal with a problem from start to finish, all without any human intervention.
The future of cyber security experts could be seen as becoming less of a necessity because of the work in ML, but industry experts stress that the need for humans isn't over yet, and that instead they they should work alongside AI to be able to deal with problems most effectively.
Experts can depend on AI technology through ML to actively point out problems that could otherwise be missed due to stretched resources and time pressures. By mixing both forms of security, in terms of human skill and computers themselves, staff efficiency increases because their overall workload is reduced, giving them more time to focus on the issues of higher complexity that AI could miss.
With it being revealed that there aren't enough cybersecurity workforces out there to deal with the growing number of cyberattacks, alongside the fact that these attacks are becoming more complex (so take longer to deal with), the outlook for online safety isn't proving particularly optimistic.
Using ML systems to our favour could allow organisations to deal with problems more efficiently with the resources they have, giving them an advantage in facing future cyber-attacks.
There will always be a limit to AI, making human skills a necessity in the fight against cybercrime. Human teams are needed to deal with the increasingly complex challenges that hackers are coming up with, something that we can't leave up to computers to fix.

Abuse. And more abuse. When will it stop? Where are people’s sense of humanity? Why are so many people so heartless!
And the babies cry by their mother’s side for days and days, just like humans. Babies are taken away from their mothers so that they can be whipped into shape to entertain humans. And their mother’s cry and cry, just like humans.
Elephants are sentient beings who have families, just like humans. They are playful too, when they are left in their own natural surroundings, protected from horrible people. But how horrible Nosey and other entertainment animals feel with the bull hook that harms them daily? That is the only way circuses get the elephants to stand on their front legs. Elephants are not meant to stand on their front legs. Their huge sizes require standing on all 4 legs. And viewers don’t even think of the abuse that got the elephants on their front 2 legs.
Animals feel. They feel all the pain and emotions that people feel. Why can’t people feel the pain that they are cause animals and these elephants?
www.SaveNoseyNow.org, established in 2014, has been fighting hard to help Nosey. They are located in Florida. On their website, they provide information about Nosey’s abuse and health, along with her history. Nosey, as other captive elephants, are kept in horrible conditions, small, airless, boxcars, small trailers, without exercise, with poor diets. It is any wonder that they develop arthritis, foot infections, stress, and early death? Is this want the audience wants when they go to circuses and carnival rides?
What is the current status of Nosey? She has been alone for 30 years, in solitary. Nosey has health problems, both physically and psychologically. She is confined, chained, abused with a painful bull hook, with improper diet, exposure to extreme temperatures. She is forced to give rides to humans and entertain while under severe pain. All this has been witnessed and reported to the authorities, who have done nothing to help. The owners Have Trunk Will Travel have been cited by the USDA with violations of the Animal Welfare Act.
All this and she continues to be abused.
Keep tweeting and sharing this information. Help send Nosey to a sanctuary like the Elephant Sanctuary in TN or PAWS in CA.
Boycott entertainment to help abused animals and Nosey.

The jokes are far from reality.
31 may the whole world celebrates the world day of blondes. Blonde ladies get the full right to dominate, to dominate and to humiliate fans to joke about the lack thereof of intelligence. Although finding the root cause of these jokes is not possible.
Psychologists still have not come to a consensus about why there were jokes about stupid blondes. The greatest distribution has received the following theory: at the subconscious level we have preserved the archetype of the blond man as wise years. Blond hair has long been associated with wisdom, Holiness, purity – remember only Golden-haired and blue-eyed angels. Grandparents, as the most experienced members of the society earlier were honoured.
Here only the young blonde still didn’t have the necessary life experience, because their way too greatly at odds with reality. Although psychologists say, often blonde much more decisive and confident than their dark-haired and redhead sisters.
It is believed that the myth about the stupidity of blondes roots in the famous work “Gentlemen prefer blondes”. The book, Broadway production and then the two film adaptation, the most famous of which is of Marilyn Monroe. Loreli If not very stupid, it is more prudent, but the dream of an easy life, coupled with attempts to achieve this due to the cute appearance… well, since the image of the silly blonde has become almost a cult.
But now, this stereotype is slowly but surely breaking down. Blonde become a famous actress, is controlled by huge corporations and even States, write best sellers and proves that being beautiful and intelligent is even possible. Among the most famous natural blondes Angela Merkel, Sharon stone, Hillary Clinton, Dalia Grybauskaite, Anna gavalda, J. K. Rowling, Mary Kay, jodie foster and Madonna.
If earlier the most famous character was the aforementioned Marilyn Monroe, now among the blonde beauties undisputed leader of Daenerys Targaryen, aka Daenerys Stormborn of house Targaryen, called the first of the blood of old Valyria, burning, Queen of Meereen, Queen of the Andals, Oinarov and the First Men, Khaleesi of the Great grass Sea, Breaker of chains and mother of Dragons. In every sense a posh woman who wanted to spit on your stereotypes about blondes.

The new lease guidance will have considerable accounting implications on your financial statements. Our advice: Get ahead of the curve and start preparing now by considering those items outlined in this article.
Consider Your Leasing Arrangements: Generally speaking, all leases with a term greater than 12-months will need to be recognized in accordance with the new guidance. While many dealerships have at-will leasing arrangements (i.e., no formal leasing agreement in place), the economic substance of the arrangement may need to be considered under the new guidance. For example, if you lease your dealership facility under an at-will arrangement and it is new, recently refurbished, or is leased from the dealer principal or another related party, the likelihood of abandonment in the near term is low and the realistic terms may need to be determined in order for the arrangement to be appropriately recorded to the balance sheet. As a result, now may be the time to formalize any at-will arrangements. Further, if the dealership will be entering into any new leases over the next few years, particularly with third parties, management may want to consider shorter-term leases in order to reduce the impact to the balance sheet.
Consider Creating a Lease Inventory: It is important to begin preparing an inventory of your dealership’s leasing arrangements, gathering all of the related lease documents and creating a summary of the significant terms such as payment amounts, lease term, extension options and likelihood of extension. Recording the lease transactions under the new standard can be quite tedious, especially as the number of leases increases. Preparing such an inventory now will allow you to begin a dialogue about the implementation of the guidance with both your internal and external accounting teams.
Consider the Impact on Financial Covenants and Working Capital: Since implementation of the new guidance will increase the overall liabilities reported on the balance sheet (the lease liabilities), financial covenants will likely be negatively impacted. Many financial covenants factor in debt and other liabilities into the calculations so it is important to understand what financial covenants your floorplan provider and other lenders are using to evaluate your dealership and begin discussing the impact of the standard with them. Do not let the fact that the standard is a couple of years away from implementation cause complacency. Remember, the agreements you execute or are committed to today may be in effect for several years. Further, the assets required to be recorded under the new standard are recorded as long-term assets, whereas the lease liabilities are required to be broken out as both current and long-term liabilities based on the payment terms. As a result, working capital will be negatively impacted by the recognition of the leases which could challenge your ability to meet your manufacturer’s requirements.
As you can see, the new lease guidance will have considerable accounting implications on your financial statements. According to a recent Deloitte poll, just 14 percent of surveyed businesses considered themselves prepared to make the transition to the new lease standard. Our advice: Get ahead of the curve and start preparing now by considering those items outlined above.

As a follow up to my article on apartments in Arizona I found this and wanted to link to it.
When you step into the leasing office of an apartment to meet the landlord it is important to remain calm and collected as suggested by the folks at http://blog.movingcost.com/local/arizona/score-a-cheap-apartment-in-tucson-az.html.
Always let it be known that you have several different options in place already. Do your research so you will know what prices and amenities are available in your area. That way if you are given a quote that seems too high you can let the manager know that there are lower rents in the area. Often they will match the price but if not, it could lead to free gym access or other amenities at a decreased rate.
Stress the fact that your interest in renting the apartment is long term. You will usually get a better rate for signing a 2 year contract instead of renting on a month to month basis for example. Landlords will often negotiate the price with you so don’t just accept the price they quote you. Try these tips and you might end up with the apartment you want at a discounted price.
How about you? Tried any of these tips? Comment below.

Detroit Behavioral Institute helps teens who are struggling with intellectual disability through an unmatched quality of care and support. Located in Detroit, Michigan, DBI is the leading provider of intellectual disability treatment.
Detroit Behavioral Institute – Capstone Academy takes great pride in the superior care that we are able to afford to children and adolescents who are struggling with an array of mental health concerns and substance abuse issues, as well as those who are faced with the challenges of cognitive and developmental delays. For this reason, we offer specialized programming that is designed to meet the unique needs of youth who are faced with the trials that accompany the presence of intellectual disability. Young people with intellectual disability struggle with cognitive and developmental deficits that can elicit the onset of impairments and hindrances in their ability to function appropriately in many, if not all, areas of their lives. Such deficits can vary in type and severity, but all children and adolescents who are faced with any form of such impairments will inevitably require some type of intervention, support, and assistance in order to fulfill an optimal level of functioning. At Detroit Behavioral Institute – Capstone Academy, we are able to do just that.
Our programs have been designed for adjudicated youth, youth who have committed criminal acts, youth who are required to undergo psychiatric treatment, and non-adjudicated youth who are in need of a structured setting as they find healing from traumatic experiences and/or mental health concerns. We proudly stand out from our competitors by providing gender-specific treatment tracks, as well as specialized treatment tracks for adolescents who are struggling with substance abuse, cognitive or developmental delays, and significant traumatic backgrounds. When a child is faced with the challenges that accompany an intellectual disability, Detroit Behavioral Institute – Capstone Academy can provide the holistic solution needed for him or her to find true healing.
Children and adolescents with intellectual disability face many challenges in life, yet those challenges should not have to impair their ability to be successful and obtain the full quality of life that they deserve. Residential treatment programs are an extremely beneficial means of helping these young people begin on a path to independence as they afford them the opportunity to learn adaptive skills, social skills, daily application skills, and comprehension skills, while also encouraging and enhancing the strengths and skills sets that they already possess. By entering into a residential treatment program, children and adolescents are provided with around-the-clock monitoring and assistance that offers them the safety and security they need in order to thrive. Additionally, by taking part in a residential treatment program, youth are being given a chance to be surrounded by peers who face challenges similar to their own, which works to build their self-esteem as they come to realize that they are not alone. Furthermore, residential treatment settings employ caring, compassionate, and highly trained individuals who have experience working with young people who have intellectual disability who are able to provide all of the interventions necessary in order to help these children and adolescents reach their full potential.
Our residential program is broken up into seven separate units, with our Horizons, Summit and Apex units being designed specifically to provide programming that meets the unique needs of individuals with cognitive impairments. Children with cognitive impairments, including intellectual disability, typically have difficulties with social, emotional, comprehension, and communication skills. For this reason, it is imperative that youth are provided with the time and opportunity to learn the skills necessary to be successful. Youth on our Horizons, Summit, and Apex units are provided with a self-contained environment that offers low stimulation and increased services and support from their therapists. Each young person’s treatment team makes use of task analysis to assist in helping these children and adolescents in developing and strengthening skills. Treatment is rooted in practices that seek out a youth’s strengths, celebrates his or her achievements, and promotes effective coping skills in order to empower each child and adolescent to realize positive change within him or herself, while promoting self-monitoring for continued success.
Medication management: In some cases, psychotropic medications may be implemented in order to assist in alleviating the symptoms of any co-occurring mental health conditions that may present alongside intellectual disability. Such circumstances will be determined on a case-by-case basis. All of our patients meet with a psychiatrist at a minimum of once each week in order to monitor the therapeutic effectiveness of any medications that may be prescribed, as well as to make any changes that may be necessary. Our doctors and psychiatrists are on-call 24/7, and our nurses and nurse practitioners are available on all units 24/7.
Individual therapy: Patients across all units meet with a therapist on a one-to-one basis for individual therapy sessions at a minimum of once per week. Based on the functioning level of the child or adolescent with intellectual disability, these individual sessions may be broken down into differing time increments in order to meet his or her needs so that he or she is able to fully benefit from this type of intervention without feeling overwhelmed.
Group therapy: Patients with intellectual disability can oftentimes greatly benefit from participating in group therapy sessions. The engagement in such groups, however, will be individualized and determined based on each youth’s individual skills set, developmental level, and cognitive ability. The topics discussed in these group therapy sessions will likewise be individualized based on the needs of the youth present in the group.
Educational programming: All patients who are engaged in programming at Detroit Behavioral Institute – Capstone Academy attend school through Capstone Academy Charter School. With one location on our main campus and a second location on our north campus, Capstone is a fully accredited educational provider pursuant to Michigan Law and authorized by Detroit Public School. Every patient attends school Monday through Friday from 8:00am until approximately 2:00pm. The onsite educational services provided through Capstone use both traditional and program-modified teaching methods, offering a setting that allows our staff the flexibility to balance educational requirements and clinical needs, while also facilitating the successful transfer of educational credits and academic records. Educational tracks are individualized based on each patient’s skills set, developmental level, and academic ability. Therapeutic aides are available to assist those patients who require additional attention and support.

text: Simmering with slow-burning soul, Natalie Prass’ debut features sophisticated arrangements supported by strings and a horn section. Gorgeous melodies and memorable hooks grace its nine songs and give the album a cohesive mood. Standout tracks like “Bird of Prey” and “Your Fool” play like a cross between Dusty Springfield and classic Philly soul without sounding overtly retro. Her understated, intimate voice is both delicate and darkly sly, a perfect pairing to the sensibilities of producer Matthew E. White and the Spacebomb Records house band. The result is an impressive and assured debut that deserves close attention.

OTTAWA — The Canadian Chamber of Commerce has asked for immediate federal funding to stop the spread of the destructive mountain pine beetle as it threatens to spread across the country.
Chamber CEO Perrin Beatty says in a letter sent to Natural Resource Minister Amarjeet Sohi that warmer winters have allowed the beetle to spread east and that the threat is at a critical juncture.
“The infestation will soon be in reach of the forests that border Alberta and Saskatchewan. If this forest becomes infested, there will be a clear path for the beetle to spread across the rest of Canada,” wrote Beatty.
Alberta has been largely left to fund efforts to keep the beetle at bay, spending more than $500 million since 2004 to control the beetle’s population, he said.
The federal government should recognize that the infestation is of national significance and to provide funding to match the threat, starting with $100 million to help fund Alberta’s efforts, he said.
A spokeswoman for Sohi said the minister thanks the chamber for its input, but did not commit to specific funding.
“We understand the threats that forest pests pose to Canada’s forests and we remain committed to supporting healthy forest ecosystems and good middle class jobs,” said Vanessa Adams by email.
According to a report to the Canadian Council of Forest Ministers, British Columbia lost more than half of its salable pine timber between 1995 and 2015 due to the beetle, which will cause the provincial economy to lose out on tens of billions of dollars in the coming decades.
Beetle-ravaged trees also burn at higher temperatures, making forest fires more severe and harder to control.

My name is James Kiser, and I am a fan of a lot of nerdy things. But I don't let that keep me glued to a computer screen. I have chosen to take my nerdery and focus it into something active: lightsabers.
Now for any of you out there who thought lightsabers were just flashy quasi-mystical made up shiny things in a movie franchise, lets clear a few things up. Lightsabers are real. They don't cut through metal or deflect laser blasts, but they are sabers, and they do emit light. They also look awesome.
Which brings us to the question, what do you do with them. Well, these things are custom machined aircraft grade aluminum with polycarbonate blades. They are designed to take abuse. You can fight with them, you can fend off wildlife with them, you can throw them at things. me...I spin them.
Saber spinning is a non-martial performance art like juggling, contact juggling, dance, or poi. It uses marital elements to put on a show, it's fun to watch, and it's fun to do. It is also an excellent exercise and fitness program for those like me who could never imagine themselves in yoga pants and a great tool for long exposure photography. In sum, it is an art and an exercise routine, but it does not requireany background skill sets and can be used to different degrees by all age groups and fitness levels. It is artistic expression, that requires only a basic level of understanding of physics and body mechanics, the right technique (which is where I can help you), and practice.
That brings me to what I am doing here today. I have been making youtube videos for some time now covering lightsaber spinning and I have gotten some pretty positive feedback. I have watched those who have begun to work with my program, advance and start to do truly amazing and beautiful things. Additionally, I review sabers and saber related products liek fire tools, and have recently branched into costuming and charity work as a member of the 501st and the Dark Empire. People seem to appreciate my videos, and I could certainly use some help and support so that I can continue to make them.
The content I am offering is also something I freely give away. That is what I have been doing and will continue to do on my youtube channel. I am not in this for the money, though if you choose to throw some at me, I could certainly use it. I am in this principally to help others and encourage them to get out, get active, and express themselves through saber work. What I am proposing is that you help me with your donations so that I can make higher production value videos. You could also use this platform to suggest videos you would like to see related to what I do.
I will also be releasing other creative compositions for my supporters like art and short fiction. My work in these areas tends to be sometimes comedic and sometimes dark, but has been well received and occasionally published. I hope you enjoy it, and if you are able, I hope you are willing to help support its creation through your contributions.
Thank you either way for your interest in me and what I do.

Clothing for children in foster care was provided through a large supply house run by the Board. Foster parents were urged to carefully measure their foster children twice a year so their clothing requests could be submitted. Foster parents also had to plan for a child’s foot growth at least once a month in advance to be sure that a replacement pair of shoes could be obtained in time.
Case managers were called “Visitors.” Foster parents were cautioned that the Visitor always knew best. Because telephones were not in common use, letters were the usual form of communication between the Visitor and the foster parent. For permission to obtain routine and special medical care (emergency medical care could be authorized by the foster parent) or authorization for reimbursement for expenses like hair cuts, prescription medication or cod live oil foster parents had to keep careful records.
As you can see, many things have changed for the better for foster children and foster parents since the 1940s-1950s. Check back for more posts on foster care history in NJ before the establishment of Foster and Adoptive Family Services.

looking for information on montclair new jersey foster care from 1935-1956. My husband was in the system. his social worker was Ms. Elizabeth Gilkerson.
Your husband can contact the Adoption Registry to see what kind of assistance they can provide. He can also contact us and speak with an FAFS Family Advocate to provide some information as well. You can reach us at 800.222.0047.
My father was in the foster care program in the 1940’s. He worked fields. And if he didn’t pick enough potatoes they would electrocute his hands. To this day his hands show frost bitten ragged knobs that have taken him through life. He would literally walk miles to school in snow storms. He finally ran away in the 6th grade and joined the many orphans and other foster children on the railways. He doesn’t talk about it much, but I can see where the foster care program needed a regeneration, and I am grateful for the people involved in changing history for future misplaced children.
I grew up in the Children’s Home of Jersey City. I was there from 1943 untill about 1950. The Head was Hettie Ashton Cornish. I would appreciate any information regarding this instituiton.
My mom went there. She spoke of Mrs. Cornish. Feel free to contact me.

Zeno Light sofa by Flexform.
Zeno and Zeno Light sofas are part of a new family of component sofas in line with the distinctive image of every new Flexform offering. The Zeno sofa features a particular arm in metal tubing covered with cowhide, a striking design idea that takes on the form of a small wing. The model comes in two versions. Zeno sofa is low-set, with upholstery that almost reaches the floor, and soft cushions for the seat and back. Here the armrest cushion is held in place by the metal tubing. The Zeno Light on the other hand, is the version raised off the floor. The visible metal structure clad in cowhide, eliminating the upholstery at the base, gives the sofa a light, airy look. The different depths available for the two models make the range of choices varied, versatile and extremely flexible. Manufactured by Flexform.

Onslaught is pretty much useless with his damage spread, let's be real here, you're only ever declaring crit strike. With the added ram from Pandora's tactical he becomes decent at beating. As a 10 cost who's sole purpose is hitting stuff. Without the help of a master's action (can be copied by a Changeling but w/e) he's effectively a meh melee beater with bad defenses, no mobility and no extra AP. The Carver may be usable as a model, but it won't ever be considered for a competitive list, it just isn't efficient enough and it doesn't have anything it can do well enough to justify its cost.
Come on, compare him to other 10ss models, The Carver is awful for his cost, the only thing he has going for him is stat 7, and that isn't worth the 2ss he's overcosted by.
If only they had made it so that you got two grow tokens for killing something more expensive than you. Growth is pretty bad considering you don't heal at all when you do grow and the only defensive ability in the entire crew is Combat Finesse on the Mature, if you grow a Young Nephelim into a Mature against a shooty crew it'll be just as easy to kill as it was before, 7 wounds/5 df.
How exactly are you summoning one every turn? Are you spending 5AP every turn? The way I see it, you can get 2 Rat Kings relatively easily out of The Stolen and Benny Wolcomb but outside of that it is really difficult to summon 4 Rats using the crews other summoning mechanics and then get them together to take an action without dying first.
It might seem like a lot of Rats... but Malifaux Rats are really bad. Like... they are 2ss models, that are completely outclassed by other 2ss models in both offense and defense, so you're really only summoning them for Rat Kings. Which brings me to Rat Kings, Rat kings are bad for 7ss, they're super squishy and only have a decent attack until they take 4 damage, most importantly they don't have a consistent movement ability and are Rg 0", which means it can be hard to get them into melee without be shot to pieces first, compare them to Ramos's equivalent, a Steam Arachnid Swarm and then cry. I'm not trying to say that Rat Kings or Rats need a buff, I'm just saying that they are purposefully understatted because they can be summoned.
They took away Hamelin's summoning because blight was too strong but then they took Bleeding Disease from The Stolen and Benny so his crew feels toothless and super squishy. I think they should refocus Hamelin on summoning as many Rats as possible, given Malifaux Rats are by far the worst model in the game I don't think it's a big deal if they get spammed a little. Either give him a trigger on Bleeding Disease like this: Devoured by Rats: If this kills the target summon a number of Malifaux Rats equal to half of it's cost rounded down in base contact with the target. Or to really go with the attrition based endless tide of rats theme give him a front of card ability that lets him decide to summon a Malifaux Rat in his deployment zone whenever a vermin (or just Malifaux Rat if that's too good) would draw a card (similar to Jack Daw's injustice ability): Endless Rats: When a Vermin model in this crew would draw one or more cards this model may instead summon a Malifaux Rat anywhere in its deployment zone. This would allow you to forgo the most useful part of a Malifaux Rat (Demise: expendable) to give the crew a little more resilience in the most Hamelin way possible. Unfortunately it's probably too close to the end of beta for large changes like this, so I expect Hamelin will be a bit of a letdown this edition, although I suppose that has the benefit of being able to declare Hamelin in casual games without being given a death stare.
Gunslingers do seem a bit bad compared to other 8 costs (Gunsmiths) and they could stand to gain a wound and something else. A Fistful of Scrip would be nice but perhaps a Grit ability would be better. Maybe give them At Gunpoint to see if it ever comes up in a game, but that might be wasted text, they'd be pretty spooky with Trigger Finger. Could give them the High Noon or Defensive Reflexes trigger on their gun so it has more consistent triggers and can add to their defenses.
In my experience you need to be able to win initiative to compete in Corrupted Idols. Hamelin, with his three totems and awkward summoning cannot win initiative if your opponent hasn't brought something similarly spammy, which means that your opponent gets total control over where the Idol marker is place, and can therefore stack all of them in the place most advantageous for them. Pass Tokens aren't used for activation control, they are far more effective for auto-winning initiative.
Tara is definitely not struggling, it's just that you generally don't want to bring summoners into Reckoning or (if you don't have a way to generate pass tokens) Idols. I also think people are just assuming the Viks are good in Reckoning without considering how much VP they're giving away by having two squishy masters to give away three Reckoning points on two seperate turns. Hamelin is just unplayable into Idols and Reckoning. He also doesn't really have a strat he's particularly good at.
A 10ss melee beater dealing 8 damage with setup, terrifying. Calling this overpowered is just silly, there are a dozen other models that can easily put out that kind of damage without any support and they don't break the game. Pandora's crew is really squishy and poor offensively, they have no card draw, is it really a big deal to allow them to attack a decent amount of the time? Ironsides entire crew has to df and wp most of the time, Kaeris's crew gets easy access to too. Some models just get built in to their attacks!
I agree. and people have been calling for her to be more interesting since the start of closed beta but unfortunately with the final update looming it's almost certainly too late for significant changes. I'm afraid that in 3E she'll just be a starter set master, something for new players to start with and then move on to more complicated crews.
Maybe they could give Winged Plagues and Stolen Toss, given that they're both size 1 it'd only work on Rats.
I don't think fast Nix would be too powerful as we already have access to a lot of fast in outcasts that we can put on way spookier models and it's no big deal. The Student of Conflict already exists and can give Taelor/Arik/Deso/Rusty fast, and they are way more powerful than Nix, gaining Vermin would also allow Nix to tarpit while Hamelin explodes rats near him. Hamelin definitely doesn't need to be more tanky, although I feel his current defenses are not very suitable for the frontlines and he would have a much more enjoyable playstyle if he were more geared for close range. Evasive Rats would be unkillable, yes, but only because they have so little effect on the game that the opponent would be a fool to waste AP on drawing you a card for no reason. I do find it strange that Rats don't have Stealth given their tiny size, it wouldn't have any effect on shockwaves but could reduce the amount of deadweight they provide against crews that target your hand, or ranged models blasting off of your rats and onto higher defense models. Why don't Rats just have Pack Mentality? It'd be far easier to calculate than the current ability and the only reason it was broken on Bayou Gremlins was because they had effective attacks. I'd really like Swarming someone with Rats to be an effective strategy sometimes but it really isn't.
LexLock replied to Gaston's topic in Battle Reports!
It's yet another ability that doesn't require much thought for the player bringing it and has to be played around entirely by the opponent. This sort of ability is no fun for anyone because it eats up some of the models power level while not feeling like it does anything for the player using it, while it can be frustrating for the opponent because it can be unavoidable. Amina seems really suit dependent so maybe nerf Extended Claims to a 12"and give her Tools for the Job, she can still block a wide area of the board (a turf marker for example) pretty easily and she'd be better than she is now in other ways.
I think Hamelin's problem is that Rats are completely worthless unless you can get four of them together, so they either need to be easier to summon (Voracious Rats has three requirements to go off, there has to be an enemy model within 6" that dies and has a blight token) or more useful. Perhaps improve the summoning by changing Voracious Rats to LoS (you still need to kill them and put a blight token on them) and change the suit required for the Infestation trigger to a (maybe once per turn. If you want to make the Rats more useful instead the crew needs more use for fewer Rats, making them able to turn into Winged Plagues if you have 2 rats would make it easier to get use out of them, or alternatively give more models Rat Snack. As the game is currently I'd almost prefer Malifaux Rats just immediately died for the card draw whenever I summon them off of enemies. I'd also prefer Hamelin to have more of a melee focus (he doesn't need to hit harder, because blight exists) and it'd be neat if they toned down Demise: Agony (which really encourages him to hang back with his stolen) and gave him Covered in Rats (also super weird that Benny doesn't have this given his model).

I discovered my passion for childbirth after witnessing the beautiful birth of my first niece, Lainey Mae, in 2007. It was the most miraculous experience of my life. I quickly learned I had a natural ability to be a calming, supportive presence during a process that so often comes with some level of fear or anxiety of the unknown.
Research shows having a doula present at birth can actually decrease complications throughout labor & delivery, and increase bonding between a mother and her baby. This knowledge, along with my passion for nurturing women and babies, led me to discover my calling into this field.
It is an honor to educate families, to advocate for and support their decisions about the kind of birth they would like to experience. It is a privilege to stand by their side as they welcome their newborn baby into the family. I am often in awe when I see the strength of a woman, the love & support of her husband or partner when he arrives for her in those moments, and the joy that erupts in the room when the baby is born.
I love my job! I look forward to speaking with you about your desires for your upcoming birth.

NEW ORLEANS — To most observers at the New Orleans Nike Opening Regional, Nick Brahms came out of nowhere to punch his ticket to The Opening—which is the premier summer camp showcase held at Nike’s Beaverton, Oregon, headquarters for the nation’s elite recruits in July.
After all, as Bleacher Report’s Damon Sayles noted, Brahms entered the event without a star rating attached to his name.
However, after a spree of offers from colleges around the country and a dominant performance at the New Orleans regional, the secret is officially out about the 6’4”, 285-pound mauler from Florida's Navarre High School.
Todd Huber, the director of football at Student Sports, also coaches the offensive and defensive linemen at the regional camps.
Brahms' rapid rise hasn’t surprised him.
To his credit, Brahms has let his film and his play on the camp circuit do the talking for him. Still, he admits that he’s aware of the fact he’s yet to be rated by more than one scouting service.
Against a crop of defensive linemen in the New Orleans regional that included prospects such as 5-star defensive tackle and current LSU pledge Tyler Shelvin, Brahms—along with his good friend, 4-star offensive lineman and fellow Florida native Alex Leatherwood—was dominant all afternoon.
When it comes to Brahms’ package of size and athleticism, he has proved himself to be one of the elite prospects at his position in the 2017 cycle—something he will look to cement later this summer in Oregon.
As Huber detailed, college coaches have taken notice in recent weeks.
Less than two months ago, Florida Atlantic was his only offer. Since then, he’s added more than 30 offers, with schools such as Louisville, North Carolina, Oregon, Tennessee and Vanderbilt offering a scholarship to the Sunshine State standout.
His hot streak has coincided with a busy offseason workout program that has seen him add nearly 20 pounds of muscle since last season ended.
In-state ACC power Miami is the latest school to host Brahms on a visit, but he plans on hitting up a few more schools in the coming weeks and months.
As impressive as his feats on the field are, Brahms is also getting it done in the classroom.
Brahms reports a 4.5 GPA with tentative plans to major in either business or engineering. He also noted that it is possible that he could arrive at the school of his choice in January as an early enrollee.
While he doesn’t have a concrete timeline on announcing his commitment, it’s a safe bet that the interest in his recruitment and decision will continue to swell in the near future.
The attention is already surging, and his status as an unrated recruit is almost certain to change in a hurry.
UPDATE: As of 1:00 pm CT on April 13, Brahms' rating has been adjusted, and he's now a 4-star offensive guard and the No. 189 player overall in the 247Sports composite ratings.

He told me that it was the 18 million uninsured children in America and Obama’s plan to change that which pushed him over the edge in his endorsement. Of course he does enjoy prestigious company like Colin Powell, but it was perhaps former president Bill Clinton that put his thoughts into words (something he hasn’t started using yet). Go to the polls, if you are voting for Obama. If you are voting for McCain Elgin suggests you avoid the traffic and spend the day with your children.

A native of Karachi, Dr. Haris returned home in summer 2015 after 16 years abroad during which he completed his graduate studies at Texas A&M University and subsequently held faculty appointments at Texas A&M University in Qatar , the University of North Carolina at Charlotte, Alfaisal University (in Riyadh KSA) and Dhofar University (in Salalah Oman).
At Habib University, Dr. Haris is currently responsible for developing and teaching university electives in Introduction to Philosophy (fall 2015) and Tragic Philosophy (spring 2016) while also delivering instruction in team-taught courses in the Liberal Core, namely Rhetoric & Communication (fall 2015) and What is Modernity? (spring 2016). With combined expertise in philosophy and engineering, Dr. Haris is passionate about exploring the ethical, social, cultural and environmental implications of scientific and technological practice, and he has taught extensively in areas such as Science, Technology, and Society Studies; Engineering Ethics; Biomedical Ethics; Ethics of Emerging Technologies; and Philosophy of Technology. Dr. Haris’ niche area of expertise is philosophy and tragedy where he employs a dialectical conception of the tragic to explore themes of incommensurability, crisis and strife in politics, culture, ethics, and technology. He is particularly interested in using the idea of the tragic as philosophical lens for understanding and explaining problems of irreconcilable differences, failure of cultural institutions, and the crisis of ethical citizenship and constitutional identity formation in Pakistan and the broader “Muslim” world.

About urban myths, the sound as a creative representation, and the desire to understand each other. An interview with ZimmerFrei.
Q: Part of your artistic reflection is inspired by Francis Alÿs’ work, a Belgian artist, Mexican by choice, who, on the occasion of its collective performance, ‘When Faith Moves Mountains’, in 2002, publicly talked about his idea of ‘urban myth’. What is the role of this concept in your artistic production? What is it, a urban myth, for ZimmerFrei?
“Because of the immense amount of material produced on a daily basis by a huge city like Mexico City, it is very difficult to justify the act of adding another piece of matter to that already saturated environment. My reaction was to insert a story into the city rather than an object. ... If the story is right, if it hits a nerve, it can propagate like a rumour. If the script meets the expectation and addresses the anxieties of that society at the right time and place, it may become a story that survives the event itself. At that moment, it has the potential to become a fable or an urban myth”.
The workshops that we conduct and that we will keep conducting in 2018 do not create an urban myth in the city of Bologna, although this is the wish that drives us personally. Only in 2020 we will be able to say whether or not all the work and the series of mini-documentaries that we will be realising this year can produce something like an urban myth. We will know that only when the whole documentary will be completed, when this will be shown to the public in the same places that the film portrays, maybe in front of an audience that has never heard about its production.
Q: The relationship with ‘the other’ as well as the local territory are important aspects of your artistic performances. How do you create such relationships? What are the principles on which they are built?
A: Atlas of Transitions is a project that investigates transitions: movements [of people], transformations, migrations, identity changes, citizenship, the future, and it challenges our fear, the many fears we all have. Fear of change, of what and who we don’t know, fear of future, fear that the future doesn’t exist, fear that neither life nor culture can anything against economy, finance, impoverishment, dehumanisation. Nevertheless, transformations within society will never end. Atlas of Transitions acts as the project pointing at these unspeakable matters while giving timely but temporary answers, which are connected to this precise time in history and that are in relationship with the different realities that the seven countries involved in the project experience.
In order not to allow the fear of the unknown to dominate our work, the focus of the documentary that we are still imagining and progressively realising [through our workshops] is the re-appropriation of the local territory, of the city itself. This approach is both creative and narrative, since it seeks to break down the insecurities surrounding us, in our daily life, and [through it] the first element to fall is identity. The word ‘identity’ is a trap, a tautology. It tells us nothing about neither ourselves nor ‘the other’. We are many, and each of us is the expression of a multiple consciousness. For instance, as Anna, I have various voices inside me, talking to myself. I feel I am part of a bigger body, or a number of bodies, whether they are my extended family, my own body, into which I have grown up, and my aging body, the bodies of the other women, the social body, and, if I were Muslim, for instance, I would belong to Ummah as well, to the large religious body of the community of believers – a body that becomes tense if only one of its parts suffers.
Q: Within this relationship with ‘the other’, thus, what is the function of sound?
A: Making a documentary is a risky process, as its final result cannot be predicted. A documentary is made of what is available… it does mediate between, and it is mediated by, something that it is neither reality nor imagination. The very process of making a documentary may be considered as a collective performance. The first workshop made for Atlas, ‘Memoria Esterna’ [External Memory], which ended in December 2017, focused on the exploration of the sound environment within the urban space of Bologna. This was possible through some walks down the streets of the city, together with a group of about 15 participants with various nationalities, who aged between 16 and 24 years. Making a sound experience is a creative practice that we have been employed for years in our work. It acts as a way to share a perceptive level that is usually felt as secondary to sight. Making hearing aware, however, means that you can see things from a different perspective. In the workshop ‘Memoria Esterna’ the only clue that participants had was to stay silent and listen. Simply by doing so, and through our walks, the world showed itself as different... For instance, we had the feeling that the people around us followed a script or something, as the characters of a story would do. Of course, they were just persons on foot, but this so increased perception [of them] was enough to imagine a story and wish to tell it to someone.
Q: What did the participants in ‘Memoria esterna’ find out during their sound exploration of Bologna?
A: To begin with, Massimo and I [Anna] are not from Bologna. To us, this city is still a place to be explored, also through the production of a documentary. Bologna is the city of which we have become inhabitants and citizens, the city that we did choose as our own. When we come back to Bologna, we feel at home. Also for this reason, we avoided creating a clear artistic product with the people who participated in the workshop ‘Memoria Esterna’. As said earlier, in fact, our aim was the re-appropriation of the territory – we did not try to remove our fear of the unknown. The result was that Bologna turned into a movie set by chance, a playground with rules that the troupe slowly discovered and defined, from [the role of] the participants in the workshop to the [production of] recordings. All this [practice and experience] will then be transferred to the public who will eventually watch the film, the people who live in the very same places [described by the documentary], or in places that resemble Bologna, or even in different territories. The participants in the workshop knew that we were not there to shoot a fiction film, that no one would anticipate what had to happen. Because of that, the reality [of their story] was not written anywhere.
The making of a documentary is something frightening for everyone. We all feel unbalanced… there is tension when you film as well as when you get filmed. At the same time, you feel desire and fear of the other. The very act of recording and shooting are inopportune and aggressive gestures. In order to become familiar with such an uncomfortable feeling, it is necessary to make some experience together and to be all contemporaneously disoriented. What will happen then is that some of us will act as troupe while the others will be on the set, and vice versa.
These guys, with us, crossed the city by walking one after the other, in a queue that was shaped randomly. Who led our sound walk knew the path; the others, instead, did not know where we were going to. Following a guide relieves from the duty to anticipate your next moves. As a result, the people who let someone else guide can stay focused on their own walk, on the sounds, on their own perceptions. We think that the participants in the workshop, first of all, have discovered the practice of hearing, and that they have experienced it and internalised it as a creative practice. Thanks to it, they can keep enriching their knowledge of the places in which they live, shoulder to shoulder with the people who live there as well, perhaps in a different way.

We have reviewed a couple of the Falcon scopes before, both the Merlin 10×42 and its replacement, the Menace 10×42. Falcon has additional scopes in their Merlin lineup that are geared more toward hunting, but they are also now just bringing out their variable power Menace lineup which includes a 4.5-18x56mm and a 4-14x44mm Front Focal Plane (FFP) model. The one we are reviewing here is a preproduction 4.5-18x56mm model.
This 4.5-18x56mm version of the Menace scope appears to be a good solid scope that shares a few of the same features as the 10×42 model. But in reality the scopes are considerably different. Of course, the two most obvious being that the scope is a variable power and the objective lens is considerably larger.
The scope tube itself appears well made with a nice even matte anodized finish. The multi-piece aluminum tube is nicely shaped and as on the other Menace scopes, there is a fairly large fast focus adjustable eye piece (diopter adjustment). The tube on the 4-14×44 version is a one piece tube and this one needs to be as well. We have seen several failures of these 4.5-18x56mm tubes at the junction where the bell meets the tube. Falcon is in the process of changing the tubes out to be a one piece design and that should happen in mid 2009 and will help. The eye piece has a nice rubber ring to help prevent injury if the shooter gets too close to the scope when firing, but there is only 3″ of eye relief available which will make that rubber ring very important. All of our test firing was done with a 308 win 700P heavy barreled rifle and there was no problem with eye relief for us, though admittedly, it is not a heavy recoiling rifle.
The scope comes with a 3″ Sunshade which is a nice Menace feature that you do not have to pay extra for. Like the other Menace scopes, the lenses are sourced from Japan and are made to a specified Falcon standard. The lenses are all truly multi-coated front and back with a claimed 92+% light transmission. The tube and the majority of the assembly are sourced from China and final assembly and quality control happen at Falcon Optics in the United Kingdom. The overall quality on the Menace scopes have been good with the ones we have dealt with and this one appears the same. Yes, I wish there were no parts sourced from China, but it appears to be working for Falcon and how they do it.
The knobs are the same that are found on the 10x42T Menace and are a good design. There are directional markings on the scope that indicate which way is up/down as well as left/right for those stressful times when your mind might need a quick reminder. There are horizontal hash marks for the elevation knob to indicate how many revolutions you have gone with the elevation knob. A change from the 10×42, and perhaps because there is not as many revolutions of adjustment, when the elevation knob is bottomed out, you can still see the bottom most hash mark.
The windage knob also counts up in both directions which is a feature I like in tactical scopes and with 15 MOA per revolution, it counts up to 7 in each direction, after that they overlap. Falcon specifies 80 MOA of vertical adjustment and that was exactly how many our scope had. This should be enough to get a 308 zeroed at 100 through 1000 yards depending on the mounts you use and how much elevation you burn when zeroing. But even if it was tight a nice 15 or 20 MOA base would give you plenty of adjustments. The knobs are attached using a single Allen screw on both the windage and elevation knob. To “slip” the rings you remove the screw, lift the knob up and then reattach it on the “zero” mark. The knobs have a good audible click but this Menace model also has mushy and soft tactile clicks which are lost if wearing gloves and there is a fair amount of play before the audible “click” happens. The mushy clicks are something we do not like on these scopes and does not give me a good feeling they will hold up over time. The adjustments are 1/4 MOA per click in both elevation and windage.
The side focus, or parallax adjustment, is of the same design as the other knobs. The markings on the knob go up to 1000 yards and then to infinity. We have noticed that the Menace scopes come with some pretty stiff adjustments that tend to “break-in” over the first little while, and that was the case with this scope as well. The elevation knob has loosened and is very nice, though the windage is still a bit stiff and will need a bit more use to break it in. We are not sure why they are this way or if it is a good or bad sign.
The power ring has knurled serrations on it as well to allow for better gripping and while it is a bit stiff it is smooth all the way through the adjustment range. The markings are in white except for the 10x marking, it is in red to indicate that is where the mildot reticule is accurate at on this second focal plane scope. You cannot see the power markings while behind the scope, so if you are zooming in and out and then need to be at the 10x mark for milling, you will need to raise your head to see when you are there. The eye piece does NOT rotate with the power ring which is a good thing and the fast focus eye piece is still the same and works well.
The scope has the new Enhanced Skelton Long Range (ESLR) mildot reticule which has standard mildots as well as half mil hash marks to aide with more accurate measurements. There is no documentation on the use of mils or anything else for that matter, so familiarity of mil-dots is good to have, but of course, you do not have to know mils in order to use the scope effectively. I would prefer the thick part of the statia lines to be solid and not skeleton to help with picking up the reticule in low light conditions or with complex dark backgrounds. But the reticule does work and the half mil marks are a good addition. The mildots also extend 10 Mils below the horizontal hash mark which I think is a good thing for both measuring targets as well as when using the reticule for hold-overs.
Each lens is fully multi coated front and back and optical performance appears to be good with a bright and clear picture even in dusk/dawn conditions especially with the larger 56mm objective which helps gather light. I had the scope out at the range next to a Leupold Mark 4 6.5-20x50mm and did a side by side in the same early morning conditions. I would give the edge to the Leupold optics, but the Falcon did perform well and had good light gathering with that larger objective. Going from a 40mm to 50mm objective lens gives you 50% more surface area to gather light with, which is worth it in most cases. A 56mm has about 25% more surface area than a 50mm, which I’m not sure its worth it. I personally prefer the 50mm objectives to the 56mm simply for scope height mounting concerns, but 25% more is a significant amount. It is a personal preference that you will need to make, all I can say is that the optical performance and low light capability is good.
When taking the scope to the range we mounted it on top of our 700P test mule rifle which has a Warne one piece rail on top. We mounted the scope with Burris XTR 30mm rings, but I was surprised to see that medium height rings was plenty of height to give plenty of clearance off the barrel. I was also surprised that I was not “goose necking” nearly as much as I thought I would with the scope mounted high for the 56mm objective. An Eagle cheekpiece would make it just about perfect.
At the range the scope performed very well with easy focusing on the various targets at different ranges and in different light conditions. We took it out on an early morning with overcast skies and the scope performed well with light gathering as I indicated above. The temperature was about 25 degrees Fahrenheit. The adjustments were also easy to use and read; though the knobs probably don’t have quite as good a gripping surface as some of the other large style knobs, perhaps a few more serrations to give smaller knurled sizes would do that trick. The adjustments were precise in all the shooting exercises we performed. Shooting the box showed excellent repeatable adjustments and I could not find any real fault with the scope beyond the short eye relief and non confidence inspiring clicks. I even fired a box test at different magnifications between 8x and 18x at the different points on the box, with excellent results. It appears that repeatability is very good on the adjustments and magnifications on this test scope. I hope that is indicative of all production scopes.
As with the other menace scopes, the cheap flip up scope caps that come with the scope are worthless, just buy some butler creeks.
These Falcon scopes are a good offering for this price range and the variable power ones seem to carry on the same traditions as the fixed 10×42 model. Good solid tube, good optics with good light transmission with very good repeat adjustments as a good price. It seems to be a good formula and provided are no long term issues they will work very well. It is a very good scope and provided the durability holds up, which I have no reason to doubt; these scopes are a very good option for that $400 tactical scope range.
Update 2010 The durability of these scopes did not hold up as well as hoped. The two piece tube was a major problem but Falcon has reportedly switched to a one piece tube. There were some other issues with canted reticles, flakes on lenses and other problems that we have seen on other Chinese sourced scopes as well. Falcon has readdressed their scope lineup recently with updated models and new features and they now have a better capable source for handling any warranty claims with SWFA acting as the main USA contact point.

Two church members were going door to door and happened to knock on the door of a woman who was not happy to see them. She told them in no uncertain terms that she did not want to hear their message and she slammed the door in their faces.
To her surprise the door did not shut all the way, in fact it bounced open. She tried again really putting all her strength behind it only to have the same result-the door bounced back open.
Convinced these rude young people were sticking their foot in the door, she reared back to give it one last slam that would teach them a lesson, when one of them said, "Ma'am, before you do that again you probably ought to move your cat."
Too many times we assume things, judge people and act hastily only to find that "our own cat" is causing the trouble. We get angry and unleash the beast within. Sometimes its with words and other times its actions. All of the time its unproductive.
The Bible tells us not to let the sun go down on our anger...in other words, resolve the issues and calm the conflict. Anger will destroy you from the inside out. Things are not always what they seem. Take time to respond rather than impulsively reacting. Manage your anger so your anger won't manage you!
