First post, so I'll make it about a personal favorite of mine.

Jul 'Mdama - Character Overview

"Embittered by decades of hatred towards humanity and the loss of his own wife at their hands, the Sangheili warrior wanted revenge."

Jul 'Mdama doesn't get enough credit, I think. While I personally am not one to excuse terrorism and attempted genocide, his reasoning has some merit to it, and it's unfortunate it's entirely discarded in Halo 4 and 5. Jul even had his own encounter with a Spartan, cementing his dislike for humanity. It's actually so devastating that he became a throwaway villain just so they could introduce Cortana as a villain. At least I can hope something cool comes out of Asum and Dural...

Jul 'Mdama was born in the State of Mdama on Sanghelios in March of 2489. He married his wife, Raia 'Mdama, and had two sons, Dural and Asum. ((I'm going to ignore how stupid this plot point is because based on the Sangheili tradition of sons not know their fathers, it would have been so obvious who their father was.)) While Jul 'Mdama was away in service of the Covenant, he left the estate to Raia and her grandbrother.

Jul always had a strong resentment and distrust for humanity, even post-war. He compared them to the Flood, not viewing them as a threat to his religious journey, but acknowledging their habits of colonization and consumption. He strongly disagreed with Thel 'Vadam's alliance with the humans, thinking they should be annihilated while they were weakened after the war.

In 2553, Jul and Forze 'Mdama allied with Avu Med 'Telcam and the Servants of the Abiding Truth. He was not interested in the religious aspect, but moreso believing they were the faction best suited to take out the Arbiter.

During one of 'Telcam's weapons deals with ONI, Jul 'Mdama followed him, suspicious of who his supplier was. He got kidnapped by Naomi-010. Professor Evan Phillips interrogated him aboard the UNSC Port Stanley, and then by Black-Box. Soon after, he was transferred to Trevelyan (formerly known as Onyx), placed in captivity within ONI Research Facility Trevelyan. Jul plotted his escape, and lied about still following the Forerunners as gods as an excuse to visit Forerunner sites. He forced his Huragok escort, Prone to Drift, to disable his explosive collar, and escaped to Hesduros through a malfunctioning portal.

Jul 'Mdama put his forces together on Hesduros, and by 2554, his followers were headed to Requiem. In July 2557, his forces spotted the UNSC Forward Unto Dawn heading for Requiem, and ordered his forces to board it. They were (obviously) unsuccessful and the Forward Unto Dawn, along with Jul 'Mdama's forces, were pulled into the planet by Requiem's gravity well. As the Master Chief encountered the Cryptum, Jul 'Mdama and his forces also located the Cryptum within the core. They fought Prometheans controlled by the Librarian to get to the Cryptum.

Jul forged an alliance with the Didact for the sake of destroying humans, gaining the title "The Hand of the Didact". He made an attempt to get ahold of the Janus Key, which Catherine Halsey initially had, and he held Halsey as prisoner. After escaping with Halsey, Jul set Requiem on a crash course with its star, destroying Requiem.

Halsey had been taken back by the UNSC, but contacted Jul once more, as both of them had halves to the Janus Key, and she sought out the knowledge provided by it. Halsey realized that Jul was going to kill her soon, as her usefulness was running out. She led Jul to Kamchatka, where the UNSC fireteam, Fireteam Osiris, retrieved her. Spartan Jameson Locke stabbed him in the neck, killing him.

((I omitted a lot of content from Escalation for the sake of not rambling.))

CHC Director, local family get Creole Heritage Awards

NATCHITOCHES – Loletta Jones Wynder, director of the Creole Heritage Center at Northwestern State University, and members of the Monette family of Natchitoches were honored with the Preservation Awards from the Creole Hall of Fame at the annual event held in Lake Charles on October 20. The award was given to Wynder for her work with the Creole Heritage Center, presenting and documenting Creole culture.

 Also recognized was the late Felix “T-Fra” Monette Jr., who was honored with a Language Award for knowledge and preservation of the Creole dialect in the Cane River community.

 The event was hosted by Sean Ardoin, member of the famous musical Ardoin family. Others honored that night included Alphonse “Bois Sec” Ardoin, Stanley “Buckwheat” Dural, and Deacon John for Music Award; Leah Chase for Culinary Award and Herbert Wiltz for Radio/Language/Education Award.

 Wynder joined the staff of the Northwestern State University Creole Heritage Center (CHC) in 2003 as project coordinator. The duties and responsibilities of that job meant that she was responsible for coordinating conferences, meetings and workshops as well as balancing the budget, handling the mountains of paperwork involved in funding through NSU, the Cane River National Heritage Area, and other granting agencies; in addition, maintaining the records for the memberships, donations, and pledges.  

 Wynder coordinated and presented conferences not only in Natchitoches and the state of Louisiana, but also in Las Vegas, California and Chicago.  During her tenure at CHC, she has produced Creole conferences such as looking at Spanish roots in Creole culture, Creole language, Creole music, and others.   Wynder coordinated the project with Artist Gilbert D. Fletcher to document on canvas his version of the Cane River Creole Legacy through 20 oil paintings.  She even rescued the paintings from the ravages of Katrina in New Orleans, when it was thought that the paintings had been destroyed.  Wynder has done outreach for Creole culture in California, Texas, Illinois, Alabama and Louisiana. She has also connected with the international Creole community through the International Magazine, Kreol.  

 After the retirement of the CHC Director in 2011, Wynder remained on staff as the Project Coordinator working diligently to keep the center going by wearing the hat of the Director as well as that of her own job, Project Coordinator.  In July 2017, her job title was changed to CHC Director – combining the duties and responsibilities of both jobs into one position.  Wynder’s fifteen years of working at the Creole Heritage Center has kept the Center going.   During her tenure, she has worked hard to document and present Creole culture – in all of its diversities. 

 On September 13-15, 2018, about 350 individuals participated in the Creole Heritage Center’s 20th anniversary celebration.  “Struggles and Persistence:  But Still We Rise” was the theme for this magnificent event.  According to Wynder, “It is evident that no “one” person can be credited with the Center’s success; it has definitely been a group effort”.  Wynder concluded, “Despite everything, the Creole Heritage Center is still Alive and Well.”

 The Monette family attended the awards to represent their family patriarch, who grew up in the Creole community in a time when his friends and family commonly spoke a broken dialect of French.  A born story-teller, he loved meeting people and telling jokes.  In his later years, he worked at the Creole Heritage Center on the campus of Northwestern State where he educated many people about Creole Heritage, from small children to scholars, politicians and business executives with jokes thrown in en fracais.

 After his death in 2017, the Monette family established a scholarship at Northwestern State in his memory.  The scholarship benefits a sophomore or junior pursuing a degree in history with a concentration in folklife. Preference is given to a Louisiana native.

Commercial Pest Control Sydney

Termites have a very beneficial role within our atmosphere, but when they attack and assault your residence, they could come to be a hated enemy, a resource of suffering as well as anxiety. Every trouble has a service, and also there is no demand for any kind of task becoming a nightmare. There are nevertheless, specific methods in the bug control market that must be taken on for all inspections and also treatments, and some "dodgy" operators that should be stayed clear of like the plague!

In Australia, one residence in 3 at some stage will certainly end up being affected by termites, which is much more common than damages triggered by fire, tornado as well as flood integrated. This short article will certainly check out how to prevent termite attack, techniques of examination, security, control and treatment by Commercial Pest Control Sydney.

Termite Control

Control of bug termites entails identifying the types, situating the nest and also choosing the best obliteration techniques. A combination of doing regular, competent building examinations in termite-prone locations, using naturally immune or cured lumbers in buildings, as well as mounting chemical as well as physical dirt barriers around buildings is necessary to avoid additional troubles.

Houses close by may often have termite nests close by in trees, stumps and underground however these could not include bug varieties. When they do, it must be the primary focus of the termite control professional to situate and also deal with these areas before any kind of protection is executed. Frequently the specialist will certainly "suggest" the worried homeowner that termites might be "anywhere within 100 metres" of the residential or commercial property and also its difficult to pinpoint precisely where they may be coming from.

In my point of view, if you do not also look for out the beginning of the issue, your chances of obtaining control of the problem substantially decline. Also if your home is surrounded by thick bushland, I believe it is certainly worth the moment and expense of test drilling as well as treating ALL trees as well as stumps surrounding the building within a 50-100 metre distance, because that is where most problems originate. If it implies piercing 40-60 trees or exploring all bordering homes, isn't that a lot better than overlooking a possible source of invasion?

Most pest control firms will certainly not most likely to this extra initiative, and also will try to convince the customer that their baiting technique or dirt barrier system is created to shield your home in all circumstances. DON'T THINK THEM! Better examinations and also inspections bring about better termite security and also treatments. Its only sound judgment to take all effort to find out the beginning of the attack.

Termite Examination of Insect Species

A Termatrac microwave monitoring tool Termatrac is an advancement in the structure inspection discovery of termites, created and developed in Australia using technology just like radar, Termatrac is the amazing response to finding termites through wood, plaster board, brick or stonework with no disturbance to the building product or termite task. Without any boring, tapping or prodding, Termatrac is the answer to termite discovery without termite defection! With Termatrac, the pest specialist enjoys the benefit of exact detection and customer comfort.

Box cutter & Tape

If termite plagued timber lies, we could suffice with a "Stanley" blade as well as expose the inside of lumber, identifying the varieties of termites after that seal it support with tape so as not to disrupt the termites.

Paying attention Gadget

This pays attention to termite sounds in the interior of the walls. However, if you tap the wall with your hand as well as put your ear as much as the wall surface you can hear the soldier termites communicate by tapping their jaws into the woods.

Home Assessment

A home inspection for termites is known in Sydney Australia as a building examination and also consists of a bug report and also a building record. It entails an extensive aesthetic examination of the sub flooring, roofing system void interior, exterior, as well as other areas of the property. An average house takes anywhere from one to two hours to finish. Price varies from $160-$ 360 relying on the size of the house as well as accessibility. This is consisting of G.S.T. Tax obligation

The record contains several pages laying out the areas of concern as well as just what to do to correct troubles. Digital photos are offered after demand. Please bear in mind a termite assessment record is designed to identify termites at an onset about minimize the amount of damages to your residence. It does not quit termites. It is strongly suggested a termite evaluation report is carried out a minimum of when every twelve months and every three to 6 months for high danger locations.
