#Sac Pool Service

[gomzdrawfr]

Bear with me here I am going to word vomit of an AU I thought of (and I literally just woke up) Idk if I have the time to write, draw or even animate this bUT

A ghostprice au where Price goes blind

Here’s a scene I had in my head, imagine a blackout panel, with a typewriting sound effect in the back that reads:

Patient Information: Johnathan Price, birth date, weight, height, number, address (something along those lines which are meant to hint this is a beginning of a medical record)

and then white blurry speech bubbles appearing from left and right

“What?”

You voiced out, or rather, Price voiced out (you are in Price’s POV)

All the speech bubbles seized, and for a moment it’s just darkness and much quieter whispers

“…Laswell?”

“John, you’re up, easy now”

He hears her from his left, but still there’s total darkness, and he furrows his brows, hands slowly reaching up to pat his face, or scratch it— there’s nothing on his skin, so he’s not being blindfolded, and there’s no sac or bag covering his head— but there is layers of something covering his eyes that he tries to pull off, managing to peek through a bit, he thinks he’s opening his eyes but—

Still black

“…?”

And then we cut to a shot of Ghost’s face, eyes wide with realization that Price can’t see anymore.

The last panel reads:

“Diagnosis: Traumatic Optic Neuropathy” (aka vision loss”

- end of scene

More rambles:

Thinking about maybe from a mission an IED went off before anyone could react— well technically Price reacted first by pulling Ghost away, which resulted in direct exposure to the blast, followed by a concussion

Ghost immediately got on his feet and dragged Price away while also making sure all units were still available, he looks down and he sees laceration and red

Well okay I haven’t figure out the clinical part but Im thinking maybe some blood pools around the corner of Price’s eyes (if, say, the laceration cut across his eyelids), it wouldn’t be as dramatic to the point where there’s blood trickling down his eyes per see cuz Idk if I plan to make the shrapnel penetrate into the cornea (in this case it would be extremely severe cause of trauma, I shall have some mercy on him)

Maybe amongst the panic he saw how Price’s left eye slowly turned red (internal bleeding) and all his alarms went off and quickly get medical on it

Of course he was praying that it wasn’t as serious, maybe it was superficial and maybe his eyes were playing tricks on him cuz it was dark and the hallway had red lamp all over

Also i just realized this is prob quite inaccurately portrayed bcuz the bandages that covers the eyes are usually tightly sealed, and that his action of ripping them off is prrrobbaaably not good since infections and increasing the pressure around his eyes are just going to make this worse (like reopening sutures or whatnot) but i think it could work (shhh ✨fiction science✨)

But nope, Price is blind, and that automatically puts him unfit for service and Ghost knows that this isn’t going to go well for the man

We always joked around saying Price is old but imagine if he’s mid 30s, prime in his years and definitely still had a lot of kick in him— only to be forcefully ripped away from it

The devastation, the angst, the anger, the unfairness of it all, the never ending cycle of guilt from both Ghost and Price

DO U FEEL IT?!

Anyways *ah hem* if you’ve read this far and would be interested to develop this yourself whether with fic or art go ahead! I sure as hell won’t be able to bring out the sheer desperation and agony from this sort of au or story so yeah XD

Excerpt from this story from the New York Times:

At first glance, Dave Langston’s predicament seems similar to headaches facing homeowners in coastal states vulnerable to catastrophic hurricanes: As disasters have become more frequent and severe, his insurance company has been losing money. Then, it canceled his coverage and left the state.

But Mr. Langston lives in Iowa.

Relatively consistent weather once made Iowa a good bet for insurance companies. But now, as a warming planet makes events like hail and wind storms worse, insurers are fleeing.

Mr. Langston spent months trying to find another company to insure the townhouses, on a quiet cul-de-sac at the edge of Cedar Rapids, that belong to members of his homeowners association. Without coverage, “if we were to have damage that hit all 17 units, we’re looking at bankruptcy for all of us,” he said.

The insurance turmoil caused by climate change — which had been concentrated in Florida, California and Louisiana — is fast becoming a contagion, spreading to states like Iowa, Arkansas, Ohio, Utah and Washington. Even in the Northeast, where homeowners insurance was still generally profitable last year, the trends are worsening.

In 2023, insurers lost money on homeowners coverage in 18 states, more than a third of the country, according to a New York Times analysis of newly available financial data. That’s up from 12 states five years ago, and eight states in 2013. The result is that insurance companies are raising premiums by as much as 50 percent or more, cutting back on coverage or leaving entire states altogether. Nationally, over the last decade, insurers paid out more in claims than they received in premiums, according to the ratings firm Moody’s, and those losses are increasing.

The growing tumult is affecting people whose homes have never been damaged and who have dutifully paid their premiums, year after year. Cancellation notices have left them scrambling to find coverage to protect what is often their single biggest investment. As a last resort, many are ending up in high-risk insurance pools created by states that are backed by the public and offer less coverage than standard policies. By and large, state regulators lack strategies to restore stability to the market.

Insurers are still turning a profit from other lines of business, like commercial and life insurance policies. But many are dropping homeowners coverage because of losses.

Tracking the shifting insurance market is complicated by the fact it is not regulated by the federal government; attempts by the Treasury Department to simply gather data have been rebuffed by some state regulators. 

The turmoil in insurance markets is a flashing red light for an American economy that is built on real property. Without insurance, banks won’t issue a mortgage; without a mortgage, most people can’t buy a home. With fewer buyers, real estate values are likely to decline, along with property tax revenues, leaving communities with less money for schools, police and other basic services.

And without sufficient insurance, people struggle to rebuild after disasters. Last year, storms, wildfires and other disasters pushed 2.5 million American adults out of their homes, according to census data, including at least 830,000 people who were displaced for six months or longer.

Smart people instinctively understand the dangers of entrusting our future to self-serving leaders who use our institutions, whether in the corporate or social sectors, to advance their own interests.   James C Colins

I discussed yesterday the catastrophic consequences of David Cameron’s policy of austerity, one academic study claiming 333,000 excess deaths can be attributed to the cuts to public services and benefits  inflicted by Cameron as part of his austerity package.

Needless to say, it was the poor that suffered while the rich became richer still. The hardships of austerity were for ordinary working people to endure, not the rich friends of the Tory Party.

“We often hear David Cameron say: "We're all in this together." The truth is that Mr Cameron and his cabinet of millionaires sit there in a pool of cash whilst there are over three million children in Britain living in poverty. Under the Tories, the rich get richer and the poor get poorer. Whether it's dinners for donors in Downing Street or giving millionaires a tax-cut, it's the same old Tories who leave all the ordinary hard-working people of this country to suffer.” (HUFFPOST: 25/01/14)

After a further five years of austerity nothing had changed:

“Rich getting richer while poor get poorer, official figures show – with ‘Brexit and benefits freeze to blame'."  (Independent: 26/02/19)

Not only was Cameron (together with George Osborne) responsible for the devastating cuts to public service funding and benefit payments, but he also led us into the quagmire that was Brexit.

Whatever your views on Brexit, it has been an economic disaster for this country and the blame for this can be squarely laid at the door of David Cameron.

"Many will never forgive him for the almost offhand way he steered Britain into an unnecessary Brexit cul-de-sac, and the ramifications of his mistake continue to cast a pall over the country."  (Evening Standard: 14/11/23)

The Evening Standard, is usually a Tory supporting newspaper but even they recognise that Cameron was being totally self-serving in calling for a referendum on our membership of the EU, a decision that had more to do with saving the Tory Party (and his premiership) from the consequences of a right-wing split and the rise of UKIP to Tory MP seats.

“Cameron chose to commit to a vote, not because the country’s population was clamouring for one but because a significant minority of his own MPs, many of them frustrated by the constraints of coalition, were demanding that he do so – some because they feared that UKIP would cost them their seat (or the seats of too many of their colleagues) at the next election, some because they wanted out of the European Union and were more than happy to leverage that fear to their advantage.” (ukandeu.ac.uk: Why David Cameron called the 2016 referendum – and why he lost’ : 04/10/22)

As if this were not enough, Cameron was not averse to using his political connections to potentially line his own pockets after he had resigned as PM. In 2022, MP’s condemned Cameron for lobbying on behalf of his banking employer, Greensill.

“The Treasury select committee said in July 2021 that it was inappropriate of the ex-prime minister to send 62 messages to former colleagues pleading for them to help the controversial bank, for which he worked and in which he owned stock options that could have been worth tens of millions of pounds.” (Guardian: 13/11/23)

Cameron also risked the security of this country by cosying up to China. Declaring that he was determined to make Britain Beijing’s partner of choice, he signed  £40bn worth of deals with China claiming:

“What this really means is jobs, it means livelihoods, it means security.”

Whatever else it meant it did not mean security.

“China represents the "largest state-based threat" to Britain's economic security, Deputy Prime Minister Oliver Dowden has told the BBC. It comes as figures show the government intervened in eight attempted takeovers of UK firms by Chinese buyers last year over national security fears.”  (BBC News: 11/07/23)

It did however mean a job for David Cameron:

“Former British PM Cameron gets new job as vice-chairman of China-UK fund.” (The Straits Times: 19/12/17)

Cameron, like many Tories, is a man who, despite his patriotic rhetoric, is prepared to put the Conservative Party and his own career above the best interests of the country as a whole. He is a man of poor economic judgement, a man who acts for the benefit of his rich friends and is quite prepared to endanger our security of our nation  for the short term benefit of making a few extra pounds.  He is not fit to be Foreign Secretary and Rishi Sunak should never have appointed him.

why qualitative research matters to teaching (mathematics)

the pioneer cohort of ed.d. and ph.d. educ at ateneo gbseald with dr. ma. assunta "achoot" cuyegkeng / screengrabs from markkie aribon and lavi subang of ed.d.

-----

i told the internet about why i am where i am now in a previous post. now, i am ready to share what invaluable knowledge i've got from one of my courses so far.

during my undergrad and graduate studies, just pen and paper is mostly sufficient to create new ideas, problems, and solutions, and do research in math, but that's not the only concern i have with life and work.

for the past half a decade or so, peers and i saw a decline in the perceived quality of students in calculus at the university of the philippines los banos. what was supposed to be tackled in senior high school, like algebra, trigonometry, and precalculus especially for those from stem track, wasn't adequately done so. when introduced to fundamental calculus concepts, they do understand the notion of limit, how lines and derivatives intertwine and entangle, and why area is an integral, but when it comes to crafting solutions and answering problems, this inadequacy becomes apparent.

in turn, it becomes necessary for us to ask why this is the case? how do teachers influence their students' calculus learning and what are they doing to adapt? has existing policies done us (dis)service in the philippine (math) education? and, why is everybody and nobody at fault here?

just thinking about possible solutions is not enough. we need to get our hands dirty, wreck some established norms, and possibly hurt some feelings in the process. qualitative research, i learned, has some of the answers.

as i mentioned in a previous post,

for this course, i posed this question: how do teachers facilitate collegiate calculus learning through creative interventions?

in an attempt to answer this question, i had to look back at what is happening and what research tells us about calculus learning.

for one, most mathematics learning theories are based on existing ones from classical learning theories, like constructivism, positivism, and behaviorism. since the start of the 21st century, one of the main motivations of mathematics education research is rationalizing a theory for mathematics in consideration of its unique nature as a subject matter.

next comes becoming aware of challenges and factors in teaching and learning calculus, how do teachers intervene, and how important their role is.

as of yet, i think the question can't be answered by a simple survey, answered using a likert scale. we have to go on the ground and diligently ask calculus teachers and instructors in college the existing literature still resonate with the challenges they face and what they do about them in order to help their students. the quality of administration and prestige of the institutions they serve affect their students, but in reality, educators are at the frontline facing the students and implementing interventions as they go along day by day. their experience is a vital part of understanding the problem.

we should break down such a complex question into easily digestible and directly answerable ones that help us understand sac (structures-agency-culture): ask where the teachers come from, what kind of pool do they dive in to teach calculus, what restrictions they are put in, what the students are like, what they do to help the children [sic], and in what way do their interventions affect the students.

with the pisa results just released, now more than ever, we need to act as fast as we can to implement changes from the ground up.

why are we, everyone at school, so miserable in one way or another? this, i can definitely say, is my magnum opus.

i will die on this hill.

What To Love (and Hate) About Corner Lots: Factors to Consider Before Buying

Whether you're house-hunting for your dream home or looking for a lot to build it, you might have come across a corner lot and been contemplating if it’s a good location.

What is a corner lot?

A corner lot is a plot of land at the intersection of two roads or streets. Typically, the streets run in the front and one side of the lot or property. Corner lots have a range of locations; it could sit in the middle of a neighborhood or at the top of a very busy street. 

Back in the ‘90s, when developers first started building cookie-cutter McMansions, builders had a challenging time selling corner lot homes. Buyers did not appreciate the additional street exposure, less privacy, and noise, among others. 

To combat the negative feedback, some developers decided to add a premium to these corner lots of $5,000 to $10,000, which drew attention, and they began to sell. Now, they are more comparable to living on a cul-de-sac in terms of popularity. A corner lot is, typically, always preferred in today's market due to the characteristics and the many benefits these pieces of real estate offer buyers.

Here, we’ll explore the pros and cons of corner lot properties to help you make informed decisions before buying or building your next home in this type of unique zoning lot.

Most desirable features:

Bigger yard space

One of the most significant advantages of a corner lot is the increased yard space it offers compared to other regular lots. This provides opportunities for a home to have a different floor plan and yard configuration. For example, you could have a side-entry garage instead of a front-entry garage, which makes for great curb appeal as the front of your home won't be obscured.

Also, you have more room to create outdoor areas that can accommodate various activities—whether it’s a pool, play equipment for kids, a bigger garden, or just extra land space for playing sports or hosting gatherings.

Plenty of natural light

Corner lots offer more natural light than the others because, in most cases, no other homes are blocking the sunlight on three out of four sides. Especially for south-facing homes, you can enjoy natural light pouring into the home from every angle as the day progresses. It's also ideal for most sun-loving plants.

More privacy

With just one neighbor close to your home, you won't feel nearly as exposed whenever you’re spending time in your backyard. If you’re concerned about the people walking down the sidewalks, you can install a privacy fence that will prevent anyone from peering in. Research if there are any restrictions on fencing, especially when it comes to materials and height.

More prominent

If you enjoy the limelight and love exploring your creativity when it comes to landscaping and gardening, building a home on a corner lot will give you such freedom since they will feature prominently in the neighborhood.

The downsides:

A bigger yard means more yard work

Since these lots tend to have larger yards, it could mean more work to maintain. Be prepared to do the extra work when it comes to keeping your lawns, landscaping, and cleaning other debris, or save up extra money to hire gardeners and other necessary service providers. 

More traffic

Corner lots see a lot more traffic given their location, bringing more noise, light from headlights shining into the home, and worse, some fairly bad accidents due to drivers running stop signs on the intersecting streets. However, it still depends on the neighborhood where the home is located since you won't likely get much traffic if it’s in a quiet, residential neighborhood. Depending on the layout of the house and the location of the windows, light at night may also interfere with your sleep. Determine if these things are a concern to you and consult with your real estate agent when assessing the home’s location.

Higher visibility

While you can get a bit more privacy with fewer neighbors surrounding your home, it can have higher visibility due to its corner location. This could pose a higher risk for burglaries since the property is more accessible from two streets. Still, there are ways to mitigate those risks if you're worried. You might consider having additional lighting and installing security cameras in various locations so you can have a bird’s eye view of what’s happening all around and near your property.

Bottom line

So, is a corner lot right for you? It's still up to you to decide. As with any other unique property location, you must evaluate the pros and cons, decide what features are most important to you, and do your due diligence on the home and neighborhood. Lastly, consult with your trusted real estate agent before making a huge decision. Maybe the right house for you is in a corner, just waiting for you to give it a second glance.

Delilah hummed softly, with a wicked smile. “Perhaps just a little. I find that women have the power over men,” she teased and he certainly was putty in her hands whilst she pumped his shaft. His low groans only heightened her arousal that pooled between her thighs once more. With one of her hands pumping his cock, as she leaned forward and started to lick and suck at his sac. Her momentum speeds up and her suction increased, and after a few minutes she stopped and pulled back, with a smirk upon her features. “You’re going to want to cum all over me,” she whispered as her mouth finally engulfed him, taking him in, inch by inch, her tongue swirling with each lick til he hit the back of her throat. Slowly bobbing her head back and forth, the soft hums reverberating as her hands cupped and squeezed his sac.

As her greedy mouth wrapped around his hard cock as she bobbed her head back and forth. The feeling of his hands upon her head guiding her as he pushed his hips against her in time. Her tongue took great pleasure as she alternated between licks. A hum of satisfaction whilst she increased her pace, letting him hit the back of her throat every once in a while, which caused her to gag. After a while she switched back to using her hands, as she slowly stroked his length. A low huff expelled from her lips, with a devious smile. “Happy to service you,” she hummed blissfully, before she switched once more. With increased momentum wanting to bring him to the brink as soon as possible. Quickly moving her head back and forth, as she hollowed out her cheeks, sucking diligently with all of her might.

Iain let out a contented sigh, a small chuckle of amusement at her teasing words to him. “Oh, you’re quite confident, aren’t you?” he asked playfully, eyes closing and his lips pressed together as he hummed. A small growl of pleasure in his throat as he felt her hand pump slowly at his hardened cock. They opened to see her licking her lips. The excitement inside of him growing as he knew her mouth would soon take over.

There was a moment of anticipation, waiting for her mouth to reach him and felt her mouth open to take him entirely into her mouth until he felt himself meeting the resistance of her throat and fought not to buck his hips. Instead, he played with her hair, fingers tangled in her dark treses as he held the back of her head and thumb stroked her neck as he encouraged her to take as much as she pleased from him. He had an inkling of knowing she would not leave him unsatisfied. That tone of teasing led him to believe she wouldn’t allow him to forget her at all and bring him to a height of pleasure he would be wanting more of. He groaned deeply, playing with him and staring as she moved with a purpose to drive him mad. Those dark orbs filled with lust; mirrored his own as he swore under his breath feeling each bob of her mouth and cock pressing against her throat. “Fuck, that’s so good. Ah “ Iain gasped. biting the inside of his mouth and groaning. "That's it. love. I knew you would be brilliant" he grinned.

LJUBLJANA, Slovénie (AP) – L'Union européenne et l'OTAN ont commencé à envoyer une aide d'urgence lundi à la Slovénie après de graves inondations au cours du week-end qui ont touché les deux tiers du petit pays européen, tué au moins six personnes et laissé des centaines de sans-abri. Le secrétaire général de l'OTAN, Jens Stoltenberg, s'est entretenu lundi par téléphone avec le Premier ministre slovène, Robert Golob, exprimant sa sympathie et la forte solidarité de l'OTAN avec la Slovénie, d'après une déclaration de l'OTAN. "J'exprime mes plus sincères condoléances au peuple slovène pour les pertes en vies humaines et la dévastation globale causées par les inondations de ce week-end", a affirmé Stoltenberg. Dimanche, la Slovénie et Chypre ont activé un outil de protection civile de l'Union européenne en raison des inondations en Slovénie et des incendies de forêt à Chypre qui ont touché ces États de l'Union européenne. L'Union européenne envoie à Chypre deux avions de lutte contre les incendies Canadair du pool de protection civile de l'Union européenne stationné en Grèce. La Grèce envoie aussi 20 tonnes de retardateur liquide via le outil de protection civile de l'Union européenne. Les inondations en Slovénie ont été les pires de l'histoire récente en Slovénie, un pays d'environ 2 millions d'habitants, d'après des responsables slovènes. La France envoie deux excavatrices avec des unités d'ingénierie en Slovénie, tandis que l'Allemagne envoie deux ponts temporaires préfabriqués et deux excavatrices avec le personnel d'accompagnement, a indiqué la Commission européenne. La Bulgarie et la Croatie ont aussi offert leur soutien, notamment des hélicoptères, des excavatrices, des ponts préfabriqués et des équipes d'ingénieurs. Les États-Unis ont aussi déployé du personnel à Ljubljana pour évaluer la situation et déterminer les besoins humanitaires urgents. Le ministère allemand de l'Intérieur a annoncé qu'il envoyait une équipe de l'Agence fédérale de secours technique en Slovénie. La première équipe, spécialisée dans le sauvetage, devait arriver lundi et des équipes supplémentaires devaient suivre. Les inondations ont été causées par des pluies torrentielles vendredi qui ont fait gonfler rapidement les rivières et ont fait irruption dans les maisons, les champs, les villages et les villes. Le service météorologique slovène a affirmé qu'un mois de pluie était tombé en moins d'une journée. Les chercheurs déclarent que les conditions météorologiques extrêmes sont en partie alimentées par le changement climatique. Certaines parties de l'UE ont connu une chaleur record et des incendies de forêt cet été. Des villages entiers sont encore sous les eaux en Slovénie. Les récoltes ont été détruites et les voitures coincées dans la boue. Les principales autoroutes de certaines parties de la Slovénie ont été fermées. De nombreux ponts se sont par ailleurs effondrés. Les autorités slovènes ont mis en garde contre le danger de potentielles coulées de boue et de rivières gonflées qui pourraient déborder à tout instant, dépassant les bancs de sacs de sable placés par les équipes d'urgence. Plusieurs violentes tempêtes dans la nation alpine au début de l'été ont soufflé des toits, abattu des milliers d'arbres et tué une personne en Slovénie et quatre autres ailleurs dans la région. Des crues soudaines ont aussi été signalées en Autriche et en Croatie voisines et de fortes pluies et tempêtes ont causé des dégâts importants plus à l'est en Serbie, qui se trouve en aval de la rivière Sava gonflée qui coule de la Slovénie et de la Croatie dans les Balkans.

too many ideas, too lazy to write ✨ ↳ stacey adams, cigarette daydreams 🎀

Briarwood Crescent was a street many in Hawkins, Indiana, wished to live on. The homes were the biggest ones ever built in the small town. They each had their own heated pool, plenty of acres to have a playground in the backyard, five bedrooms with bathrooms included, and so much more. Only those who were rich beyond comparison were able to live on that particular street. The rest of Hawkins could only dream as they pass by the neighborhood on the way to work.

There were two houses at the end of the cul de sac on Briarwood Crescent. One belonged to the Harrington family while the other belonged to the Adams family.

Richard and Martha Harrington’s son, Steve, lived in the house on the left. Steve Harrington was the King of Hawkins High. He was Mr. Popular, Mr. Cool, Steve “The Hair” Harrington. The boy other teenagers longed to be. Co-captain of the swim team and a valuable player on the basketball team. He was a charmer, a ladies man, a world-class jock. He could do and have anything he wanted without repercussion. Which, happened to include, scoring a date with sweet, little Nancy Wheeler.

Next to the Harringtons on the right was Scott and Haley Adams with their daughter, Stacey. Stacey Adams was the girl who had it all. Perfect life, perfect grades, perfect boyfriend. Perfect everything. She spent most of her time at ballet practice, reading scholarly novels, or going out of her way to do community service. There was no flaw a person could detect from the prettiest, nicest, and goody-little-two-shoes girl of Hawkins, Indiana.

Although they were neighbors and their paths do cross very regularly, Steve and Stacey weren’t what one would call “friends”. Sure, they had the mutual friends and have gone to parties together in a group setting, but they hardly would ever interact with each other if it weren’t for those circumstances. It wasn’t like they hated each other or anything. In fact, both were equally indifferent. Just two people who couldn’t hold a conversation for more than five seconds with each other.

When suddenly, they found themselves in situations where they couldn’t seem to get away from each other. Which, of course, happened to include fighting a monster with no face from another dimension.
