23/30 Characterization speedrun
(Previous) | (Index) | (Next)
We return to a movie that exposits with all the grace of an inebriated hippo on rollerskates, Prometheus.
Tumblr media
Y’know, I have a soft spot for the first movie adaptation of Silent Hill (2006). Yes, we're tangenting to talk about something else I like better, but I swear it's for a purpose.
Tumblr media
It mostly sticks to the first game’s content, meaning it limits the number of themes it has to handle. It makes some alterations that affect its interpretation–it switches the gender of the protagonist, alters the religious elements, cuts out the bit where you basically fight Baphomet at the end of the game, but that always felt weird anyway. And, of course, there’s a required appearance by a certain tetrahedron lad, reanalyzed as a punitive figure turned outward on the world rather than inward toward the person that conjured him. I’ll allow it, partly because I saw it when I was a teenager and I thought he was badass.
Tumblr media
But what it really nails camerawork, creature effects, and set design. So much so that a lot of the visuals of following games lifted from creative decisions made for the movie. The Silent Hill movie is more a thing of vibes than anything else, and the vibes are appropriately awful.
youtube
[Video description: Rose (Radha Mitchell) and Cybil (Laurie Holden) encounter a Lying Figure (Michael Cota), AKA Armless Man or Straightjacket. There’s only a tiny amount of CG here. It was pretty much all Cota’s unnerving shuffle and his willingness to be shoved into blinding, deafening, arm-tying monster-bondage with a breathing tube hidden around butt-height.. We salute you, Mr. Cota, possibly with our feet.]
But where the movie trips and falls is right near the end, where the vibes screech to a halt so that the movie can sit you down and explain the backstory that it already intimated throughout the rest of the runtime.
On a totally unrelated note, Janek has something to tell Shaw.
Tumblr media
This barren moon, believe it or not, isn’t the Engineers’ homeworld. Y’don’t say.
Tumblr media
You know what would’ve been a better way to set this up? Have somebody ask “hey, there’s nothing but rocks and ominous buildings here. What gives?”, but they literally never do. Not even the biologist, who does no biology in the movie. The geologist, who also doesn’t do any geology, doesn’t note, say, a lack of siltstone that’d indicate running water, no coal of any kind that’d indicate previous growth of plant matter, no signs of oil or natural gas deposits derived from ancient microbes. Lord knows the poor bastards weren’t swamped with work before the script ate them.
Tumblr media
But no, there’s no questioning of this. Shaw dictates in her notes “Was there an outbreak here?”, after exploding the head. But that’s it. No, we leave it to Idris Elba explain, as seriously and as military guy-ily as he can. This is a weapons lab or depot, something went wrong here, Janek’s going to do a self-sacrifice if it seems like the weapon might get to Earth. He even says the weapons are in “those vases”, in case you didn’t notice them before.
Tumblr media
Consider: Principle photography for Prometheus was done in 2011, from March 21 to June 10 (cite 1). On November 14, Filming began for Pacific Rim, in which Idris Elba gots to play a serious self-sacrificing military guy with the exact same mustache who has an actual character arc, AND was allowed to use his actual accent.
Tumblr media
In Prometheus, Janek apparently had more characterization planned, but it was stripped entirely away until all you’re left is a christmas tree, a plot-mandated laxity in keeping track of passengers, and incomprehensible flirting with Vickers. On balance, that’s more than pretty much everyone else gets, but at the same time, what does that tell us? We are left with a man who’s going to pull a heroic sacrifice, essentially because he’s the only other character we know about.
Tumblr media
In cut material, Janek was originally going to give a sympathy monologue to Vickers after she killed Holloway, about a traumatic event in his military career: he watched a bioweapons lab suffer a breach that ended with its destruction. That was cut. His motivation was cut. And more, too, you can see the ragged edges of the script. 
“Right, ‘all you do is fly the ship,’” quotes an exasperated Shaw. “That’s right,” says Janek, who told Vickers that in a cut scene.
Tumblr media
Despite these pieces missing, I haven’t been drawing on them very often. Why? Because the movie was still full of baffling decisions, regardless of how they edited it down. The movie that’s shot never looks like what gets shown in theaters, but it is still a representative sample of the material, one that was prepared for us to watch.
Tumblr media
While Janek’s entire motivation fell off him in the editing room, Vickers gets undermined by what they did keep. Turns out she’s not just nasty to her employees, she’s nasty to her boss as well, because he’s her dad. She’s presented as obsessed with making sure he dies, which, fair, we’ll soon confirm that his only begotten robo-son is pretty big on that too.
…Except this also means they have the same character motivation, which… That can work, but how well does it work as a twist? 
Tumblr media
I am not convinced. Vickers has constantly been pulling power plays on David, who’s pushed back a little in return, but they don’t have to functionally be siblings to make this work. Nor does the weird, occasionally robotic behavior from Vickers have to mean “aha, you see, they are both Weyland’s children with daddy issues!”
She could just be a disposable asset of the Weyland Corporation! She’d have a more sympathetic arc that way, because unlike corpos of Aliens past, she doesn’t want to be there at all. She didn’t want them to talk to aliens, she didn’t express any of the usual flimsy “we can profit off of this uncontrollable killing machine” stuff we’ve come to expect. She seemed to just want to get the fuck out of there. And obviously, she’s gonna die, this movie is frequently aping Alien and Aliens, the corpo does not survive. That could be tragic!
Tumblr media
But apparently she wanted to be here, taking five years out of her life and career to sit on ice and do literally nothing but make sure her already dying dad actually dies. Okay. 
It’s especially, structurally weird, because the very next scene has David explaining his motivation to Shaw.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
“What happens when Weyland isn’t around to program you?”
“I suppose I’ll be free.”
“You want that?”
“”Want”? Not a concept I’m familiar with. That being said… doesn’t everyone want their parents dead?”
This is what happens when you leave a hyperintelligent newborn alone for two years with nobody but Peter O’Toole as a role model. 
This scene and the pre-caesarian one set up a weird dynamic between David and Shaw that didn’t seem sufficiently motivated by the rest of their interactions, in my opinion. It suggests that David has latched onto her in some way, which the next movie certainly confirms. But why? They’ve barely talked, ad most of it was pure exposition or telling David to do something. Is it because she hasn’t been as bad as the others? Because that’s going to change later. 
Tumblr media
David’s hopes are pinned on the Engineer rejecting Weyland. This is a reasonable assumption. The way the scene plays out, however, is not entirely reasonable.
And that will have to wait for another day. Before we get to that, I want another ramble all to myself. About something I like.

Overflow Ramble 1
The kitchen counters don’t have any grippy surfaces on them, and no lip. The *stove* has no lip, which I have seen before, but it’s stupid. Most modern designs for stovetops meant for installation on ships have a high lip and/or grippers that hold cookware in place. There are multiple open shelves that have no lip. And there’s yet another piece of Decorative African Art just hung on the wall above a food prep counter, within the potential reach of steam or grease splatter. The chair Holloway sat in last time is revealed to be free-standing, as is the coffee table.
No. No free-standing furniture, unless it’s collapsible and used at rest. Put lips on every counter and table. Have lots of grip mats you can throw down anywhere. The design in here is more along the lines of airline tray tables, which are meant to be stowed during rough flight. There is no way to stow all this shit in a reasonable and timely manner. Airline furniture is also designed according to hostile forces, which, frankly, might be relevant here. This comfy, beige apartment space was designed by someone who did not give one fuck if a glass went winging off that 2m tall open shelf and gave you a concussion.

Roadtrip prompt! They’re going somewhere together (not for work). it’s just really domestic and they bought snacks and everything ❤️
There’s just something about these two driving in cars together that I can’t get enough of. Thanks for the prompt!
Bill hadn’t given any consideration to his mounting vacation days for some time until Wendy had announced she was taking a trip to the Florida Keys, and Holden had remarked that he hadn’t taken any days off in awhile either. He’d quickly turned to Bill to point out that they shouldn’t let Wendy have all the fun. 
Bill shrugged. He hadn’t gone on a real vacation for a few years because he’d been too focused on work. He wasn’t complaining, though, because their work is important. 
He’d forgotten about the conversation until the next morning, when the idea was fully gestated in Holden’s mind. 
“We should go see the Grand Canyon.” Holden said, sitting up in bed with his disheveled hair and eyes wide and alert despite it being seven o’clock in the morning. 
“Okay.” Bill said, rubbing a hand over his sleep-laden eyes. 
“I always wanted to go as a kid, but my family never had the money for out-of-state vacations.” Holden said, “How many vacation days do you think you have?”
“I’m not sure. A lot.” 
“I think we should drive.”
“What? Why? Don’t we drive around enough together as it is?” Bill asked.
Holden turned around to cast him a mischievous smile. “It’ll be an adventure. Please?”
Bill sighed, “It’s a what? - two or three day drive? Maybe more if there’s construction and traffic accidents - which there’s bound to be. Are you sure?” 
“Yes.” Holden said, flopping down against Bill’s chest to pander with wide, pleading eyes. “It’ll be fun. Will you at least consider it?” 
Bill considered it for all of one day, though “considering it” was a loose term. He could see that Holden already had his heart set on the trip, and wouldn’t be letting the idea go anytime soon. Besides, as it turned out, he had more than enough vacation days compiled to allow for driving time and a full week in Arizona. 
They’d struck out two days ago on an early Saturday morning, bags packed, cassette tapes, snacks, and bottles of water stashed in the front seat for the drive ahead. Holden rolled down the window and sang along with the radio as they crossed the state line between Virginia and North Carolina, and all of Bill’s misgivings sailed out the window into the summer air along with the upbeat lyrics of “Tiny Dancer.” 
Holden’s high spirits remained through the brief trip across the tip of North Carolina and into Tennessee. By this point, Bill had grudgingly given into his urging to sing - or rather somewhat hum - along with the music. Bill smoked another cigarette while Holden shelled peanuts out the window, popping them in his mouth in between mutterd song lyrics. 
As they sped across the threshold into Arkansas, Holden leaned over to tuck his head against Bill’s shoulder. His fingers crept over to trace Bill’s knuckles and the back of his hand before nudging them in between Bill’s fingers. They were quiet for a long time as the landscape changed around them, rolling green hills rising up into rocky mountains peppered with miles of trees that seemed to go on forever. 
Eventually, Holden sat up and started talking again, reminiscing about some of the different places his family had lived throughout the Midwest. Somewhere in between a story about Milwaukee and St. Paul, he’d made them both promise not to bring up anything work related. Bill agreed without complaint.
 The sunset slipped across the sky in hues of gold and pink as they crept towards Oklahoma, the land dipping down into flattened stretches of grassy fields that allowed the dome of the sky to swell above them. Holden sank down in the seat, breathing a happy sigh. 
“Thank you for this.”
“For what?” 
“This trip.” Holden said, casting Bill a faint smile. “It means a lot to me.”
“Hey,” Bill said, catching Holden’s hand and bringing his knuckles to his mouth, “If seeing the Grand Canyon is what you want, I’m going to give it to you.”
“I do want to see it.” Holden said, a smile tugging at his mouth while his eyes went soft and hazy as a lake on a foggy morning. “But this is more important to me … You.” 
Bill cleared his throat as emotion hit him suddenly in the chest, a yearning and a satisfaction that seemed to compete for residency in that space all at once. 
“It’s nice, right?” Holden asked, sparing Bill having to respond immediately. “Driving, just the two of us.”
“Yeah.” Bill said, “It’s really nice.”
It was past ten o’clock by the time they made it to the hotel that Holden had booked in advance. Bill got out and stretched his legs, relishing not being cramped in a car for less than half an hour before falling into bed exhausted. 
He woke the next morning to Holden curled up against him, golden sunlight through the window making the dark brown of his hair gleam luscious chestnut. Bill carefully traced his bare shoulder as he leaned in to plant a kiss on Holden’s neck, inhaling his familiar scent, drowning himself in the quiet solitude of his moment. 
Quantico seemed to fall far behind them, a disant, gray outline that he could have seen in a book somewhere. This reality, his arms wrapped around Holden, felt like it was the only one that shoulder matter. It took all his willpower to get out of bed to face another day of driving, but Holden’s eagerness to reach their destination urged him along. 
They drove for two more days, passing through Oklahoma, the northern edge of Texas, and New Mexico before the sign for the Arizona state line heralds a closing end to their journey. 
Night descends on the desert like a shroud, plunging the colors of the cloudless sky through shades of blue, purple, and black before the pinprick of stars and the half moon hanging overhead are the only source of illumination outside of the intermittent streetlamps dotting the interstate. The radio plays at low volume, a hushed lullaby that had Holden’s head slumping down against the leather seat cover over an hour ago. 
Bill carefully rolls down his window to light a cigarette. The scrape of his lighter cuts through the quiet bluster of the wind, unanswered by the echoing void just outside of the car. As smoke pours from his lips, he casts a glance over at Holden’s lax expression of blissful sleep. A smile tugs at his mouth.
 Not two hours ago, Holden had been pressing whether Bill wanted him to take a turn driving or not as Bill had spent most of the trip behind the wheel. Bill had said no, he prefers to drive; more than that, he prefers to watch Holden sleep, rocked to dreamland by the steady motion of the car over never-ending asphalt. 
Bill turns his gaze back to the road ahead illuminated by the yellow swath of headlights making out the black strip of road ahead. 
Everything is quiet now with Holden slumbering beside him and the interstate all but vacant of traffic. Against the black backdrop of the sky he can begin to see the narrow, crooked outlines of the Grand Canyon’s myriad rocky formations beginning to emerge beneath the milky moonlight. The idea of driving them all the way into the town where neon lights and streetlamps could dispel the sense of distance that this place gives him seems like an offense he can’t abide. 
Easing his foot on the break, Bill brings the car to a crawl, and guides them off the shoulder of the road into the sand. He puts the car in park, and turns his gaze to Holden’s slumbering expression cloaked in shadow. 
He takes a drag of his cigarette and exhales slowly in the silence. The car engine ticks as it cools, but otherwise he can’t hear anything - not even the wind. 
Taking off his seatbelt, Bill leans over to press a kiss against Holden’s cheek. 
Holden stirs, uttering a moan. “Are we there?”
“Not quite.” Bill murmurs, stroking his thumb across Holdens temple where his hair begins to curl. 
Holden’s eyelids flutter open in the darkness, searching the shadowed corners of the car and the street ahead for landmarks. “Where are we?”
“Just outside of Flagstaff.” Bill says. 
“Why are we pulled over?” Holden asks, pushing himself upright in his seat to survey their location on the side of the road. 
“Come on.” Bill says, nodding toward the desert. 
Holden frowns as Bill shoves the door open with his shoulder, and gets out of the car. Sand shifts beneath his feet as he stretches his back, easing out the knotted kinks from hours behind the wheel. 
Holden clambers out of the car, and peers over the hood at him. “What are we doing?”
Bill shuffles around to lean against the hood of the car, and waves a hand for Holden to join him. “Just come here for a minute.”
Holden hesitates for a moment before pushing the car door shut. He ambles around the hood of the car, rubbing the sleep from his eyes with his knuckles. Sitting on the hood beside Bill, he drops his head to Bill’s shoulder and suppresses a yawn. 
Curling his arm around Holden’s shoulder, Bill draws him closer, and breathes out a quiet sigh. 
“This was a good idea, you know.” He says, quietly. “Getting away for a little bit.”
“Now you agree with me?” Holden asked, teasing gently. “You spent the whole first day complaining about your back hurting.”
“Yeah, you got me there.” Bill says, uttering a low chuckle. 
Holden laughs quietly, tucking his cheek tighter against Bill’s shoulder. 
A slow breeze creeps in from the desert, void of the daytime humidity that is sure to come with the rising of the sun. Holden shudders softly, and Bill draws him closer, rubbing a hand over the goosebumps prickling his arm. 
“Cold?”
“No.” Holden murmurs, defiantly. 
“We can go if you want.”
“No, this is nice.” Holden says, tilting his head back to look up at the sky. “I’ve never seen stars like this, have you?”
“No.” 
Holden lifts a hand towards the sky, his fingertips drizzled in pale, pewter light as if he could dip his nails into the smattering of stars. 
“Big Dipper, Little Dipper, Orion’s Belt …” He murmurs, naming off constellations as his fingers wander across the blanket of the sky. 
Bill slips his fingers under Holden’s jaw and turns his mouth into a kiss, interrupting the whispered string of names. A quiet whimper rolls off Holden’s tongue into the gentle stroke of Bill’s mouth, and his lips fall open to the gentle touch. Bill strokes Holden’s cheek, savoring the softness of his skin and the sweet taste of his mouth, the weightlessness in his chest while this moment unfolds privately in the darkness. 
When he pulls back, Holden swallows hard, his nostrils flaring gently with a deep, shaky inhale. He leans his forehead against Bill’s, closing his eyes against the warm, wandering caress of Bill’s thumb working its way down his jawline and throat. 
“What if we just kept driving?” Bill whispers. 
“What?” Holden asks, offering a choked little laugh. 
“We see the Grand Canyon like you wanted, and then we keep driving.” Bill says, nudging his forehead against Holden’s.
“Really?” Holden asks, despite the smile fighting underneath the bite of his teeth. “And never go back?” 
“Yeah, why not?”
“I don’t think your back would make it to the West Coast.” Holden says, muting a laugh when Bill begins to scowl. 
“Fine, forget it.” Bill says, leaning back. 
Holden gazes at him sheepishly from beneath his eyelashes. “It’s a nice thought, though.”
“Yeah,” Bill says, scanning the dark shadows cloaking the landscape around them. “It is.”
They sit on the hood of the car for a long time, Bill smoking a cigarette, Holden resting his head on Bill’s shoulder. He tries to catalogue each second in his mind - the cool breeze, the endless desert making them small, the weight of Holden’s head on his shoulder, the warm gust of his breath on his neck. 
Things have a way of slipping out of your hands when you aren’t watching, he thinks. Everything changes so quickly. Moments you think will last forever disappear in the blink of an eye. But not this one, not this time. 
Half an hour later, they’re back in the car, driving into Flagstaff where the hotel awaits and the next day promises adventure just as Holden had predicted. Bill casts a glance up at the sky as they leave the desert behind. The moon hasn’t moved despite the distance traveled, and some things, like the stars, are forever.

Holden was wiping down the bar for the night when he heard the bell ring over the front door. He thought he’d locked it but his mind was a little shotty even on a good night when he had to close. Which was every night for the foreseeable future given his recent purchase of said bar. “Sorry we’re--” But he cut himself off when he noticed who’d darkened the door. “Isla Duncan--” A smirk perked up on his lips when he saw her, leaning up against the bar. He was well aware of her recent escapades but hadn’t expected that she’d show up back in Tree Hill, however why shouldn’t he have. She’d seemingly tied up all her loose ends so now, what else was their left to do but be with her family right. “To what do I owe this pleasure?”

Radio Abel, Season Three
Part 6 of 7
Parts 5 and 6 take place after S3M52, “Shiver Me Timbers”
EUGENE WOODS: This is it, guys.
JACK HOLDEN: Alderney.
ZOE CRICK: Home.
PHIL CHEESEMAN: Just when I was getting my sea legs, as well. [laughs]
ZOE CRICK: [laughs] You could spend ten years on that boat and never get those.
PHIL CHEESEMAN: Well, I'd stopped throwing up, at least.
ZOE CRICK: I'll give you that.
JACK HOLDEN: Time to disembark. Shall we?
EUGENE WOODS: Let's do it. Everybody got their stuff?
PHIL CHEESEMAN: Yup.
JACK HOLDEN: Yeah.
ZOE CRICK: I do. Although I don't know why I'm stuck carrying this bloody transmitter around.
PHIL CHEESEMAN: You pulled the short straw.
ZOE CRICK: Yeah, but why can't we just turn it off and come back for it later?
JACK HOLDEN: Because then we'd miss the radio dynamite that is us exploring our new home.
ZOE CRICK: Oh, fine.
EUGENE WOODS: Right then. Here we go.
ZOE CRICK: Kids! Don't run too far!
JACK HOLDEN: What? Is this us?
PHIL CHEESEMAN: This is the address Rachel gave us.
EUGENE WOODS: Oh man, it's massive!
JACK HOLDEN: This can't be right. You could fit like, 20 people in there.
ZOE CRICK: Maybe if we were still back at Abel. Have you forgotten how people used to live? This is just a normal house, guys.
PHIL CHEESEMAN: Normal palace, maybe.
ZOE CRICK: If it's a palace, it's our palace. Come on. Let's get our stuff inside.
EUGENE WOODS: Dibs! We call dibs on this room!
JACK HOLDEN: Ooh, what do we get? Ooh, nice!
PHIL CHEESEMAN: If you've taken the only en-suite, Eugene, I am going to be very cross!
EUGENE WOODS: I need my facilities to be close, Philip! Missing a leg?
PHIL CHEESEMAN: Oh, oh, you only bring that bloody thing up when it suits you. The rest of the time, it's all, "don't tell me what I can't do."
ZOE CRICK: Would you lot mind cutting it out with the shouting? I'm trying to set up this equipment and you're blowing my bloody eardrums off.
PHIL CHEESEMAN: Sorry, Zoe!
EUGENE WOODS: Sorry, Zoe!
PHIL CHEESEMAN: Really? This is the spot you chose?
ZOE CRICK: It is. Pass me that cable.
PHIL CHEESEMAN: But it's a bloody airing cupboard. I can barely breath in here. Can't we do it in the kitchen or something?
ZOE CRICK: Kitchen's too noisy. This is the best place to set the transmitter up. Easy to run cables to the antenna on the roof, picks up radio mic signals from all around the house.
PHIL CHEESEMAN: You've got an answer for everything, don't you?
ZOE CRICK: Of course. [laughs] You should know that by now, Cheeseman.
[PHIL CHEESEMAN laughs]
JACK HOLDEN: Ready?
EUGENE WOODS: I'm ready. Guys?
ZOE CRICK: Yup.
PHIL CHEESEMAN: Ready, Gene.
JACK HOLDEN: Okay, here we go. [clears throat, imitates trumpet fanfare]
PHIL CHEESEMAN: Welcome, Cablers! Whether you've been with us since the early days or are just joining us now, we want to welcome you to our brand new base of operations.
ZOE CRICK: That's right, everyone. You're joining us now for our first real broadcast from the island of Alderney, here in our lovely new home.
EUGENE WOODS: Now, it's been a long road to get here, and a longer road still before that. From the early days at Abel when this was just Jack's pet project to stop me from feeling useless -
JACK HOLDEN: Oh, hey, no. Janine and the Major asked me to sort this out, to lift spirits and stuff. [imitates the Major] "Morale is very important, Mister Holden," you know. That's what she said.
EUGENE WOODS: Jack, I know. It's okay, you don't have to pretend. It was... it was exactly what I needed.
PHIL CHEESEMAN: It was what we all needed.
EUGENE WOODS: And now, after all this time, here we are.
ZOE CRICK: Here we are.
JACK HOLDEN: And it's from here that we'll be bringing you all the usual radio dynamite. Fear not, listeners. We may be in a different country -
ZOE CRICK: Nope.
JACK HOLDEN: No? Oh, uh, all right. Well, we may be on the other side of the ocean - no? Well, where are we, even? I thought we were in France.
ZOE CRICK: Small island, across the Channel. Near France, still Britain.
JACK HOLDEN: Right. Well, uh, we may be on a small island that's near France but is still Britain, and things might be uh, you know, a little bit more sporadic while we get moved in, but we're still dedicated to bring you the same Radio Cabel you've always known and loved.
EUGENE WOODS: And with that, it's time for some music.
JACK HOLDEN: And next up on the tour of the house, listeners, is the kitchen, where we find our old friend Eugene cooking up a storm. [food hits pan and sizzles] Hey there, Mister Chef. Why don't you tell our listeners what you're cooking?
EUGENE WOODS: Bacon.
JACK HOLDEN: What?
EUGENE WOODS: Bacon.
JACK HOLDEN: Like, pig? Bacon?
EUGENE WOODS: Like pig bacon.
JACK HOLDEN: What?
EUGENE WOODS: Bernadette down the hill keeps pigs, gave us some bacon as a welcome gift.
JACK HOLDEN: What?
EUGENE WOODS: Bacon, Jack. Smell the bacon. Mm, bacon.
JACK HOLDEN: What?
PHIL CHEESEMAN: Hand us that hammer, Zo.
ZOE CRICK: This one?
PHIL CHEESEMAN: Yeah. Right. So now we nail the crossbeam in place. [hammers nail into board] And voila. That, listeners, is how you make a chicken coop.
ZOE CRICK: Very nice. All right, give me a go.
ZOE CRICK: "The moon was riding in a cloudy heaven when Peter rose from his tree, begirt with weapons and wearing little else, to set out upon his perilous quest. It was not such a night as he would have chosen. He had hoped to fly, keeping not far from the ground so that nothing unwonted should escape his eyes; but in that fitful light, to have flown low would have meant trailing his shadow through the trees, thus disturbing birds and acquainting a watchful foe that he was astir." Sleep well, kids.
PHIL CHEESEMAN: So basically, what you're looking for is which part of the clue is the straight clue and which part is the cryptic clue. At least, as a general rule.
JACK HOLDEN: Right, so the uh, the straight clue is just like a normal crossword clue -
PHIL CHEESEMAN: Mmhmm.
JACK HOLDEN: - and the cryptic clue is like, how to make the answer?
PHIL CHEESEMAN: Head of the class! Exactly.
JACK HOLDEN: Sweet, cool! So, okay. Okay, I think I'm getting it. So, this one -
PHIL CHEESEMAN: Uh, "return friends makeup", four letters.
JACK HOLDEN: Yeah. So, so, this is the bit -
EUGENE WOODS: Hey, guys. Are you forgetting something?
PHIL CHEESEMAN: Uh... is it our turn to do the dishes?
EUGENE WOODS: No, you doofus. Maybe you should explain to the listeners what you're actually doing.
JACK HOLDEN: Oh! Sorry, Gene. Sorry, listeners. Got a bit absorbed.
EUGENE WOODS: No problem. Uh, dinner's in 20.
JACK HOLDEN: Nice. So, so listeners, um -
PHIL CHEESEMAN: I was just sharing with Jack one of my favorite pastimes, the cryptic crossword.
JACK HOLDEN: Right. It's different from normal crosswords because instead of having to know the answers, um... well, you can work them out. And when you get them, you know you've got them because the clue confirms its own answer.
PHIL CHEESEMAN: Nice. So, as I was saying, you're looking for a straight clue and a cryptic clue. Our example here -
JACK HOLDEN: "Return friends makeup," four letters.
PHIL CHEESEMAN: Right. In this example, the straight clue is – Jack?
JACK HOLDEN: Oh, um... makeup?
PHIL CHEESEMAN: Exactly. So...
JACK HOLDEN: So we're looking for a word that means makeup, but also is uh... sorry.
PHIL CHEESEMAN: But it's also a word for friends, backwards.
JACK HOLDEN: Right, right. Uh, because of "return." Bang on. So... chum? [mutters] No, because "muhc" isn't a word. [out loud] Uh...
PHIL CHEESEMAN: What about - ?
JACK HOLDEN: No! No, no, give me a second. Uh, yes. Slap! [laughs]
PHIL CHEESEMAN: Heck yeah, it's slap!
JACK HOLDEN: Ooh yeah! Crossword master Jack, booyah!
[Sean hits cricket ball]
EUGENE WOODS: Nice job, Sean! We've got a future Jack Holden on our hands, here.
JACK HOLDEN: It's not bad, not bad. Just keep your head forward, over your front leg. You'll get a much better swing. Right, here it comes. Ready?
[Sean hits cricket ball]
EUGENE WOODS: [laughs] All the way to the boundary, listeners! Lovely shot.
JACK HOLDEN: Yeah! [?] That's what I'm talking about.
ZOE CRICK: Come on, Phil! I need those shingles up here or we'll never have this roof fixed in time for winter.
PHIL CHEESEMAN: All right, keep your pants on. They're coming up.
ZOE CRICK: Thanks! [hammers nails]
EUGENE WOODS: What's that you're putting in now?
EUGENE WOODS: Basil, from Jack and Zoe's herb garden.
PHIL CHEESEMAN: Oh, nice. You're going to let that simmer, right?
EUGENE WOODS: You got it.
PHIL CHEESEMAN: Okay.
EUGENE WOODS: Here, taste.
PHIL CHEESEMAN: Perfecto!
EUGENE WOODS: Mm.
JACK HOLDEN: - says he's expecting a decent rainfall in the next few weeks, so probably ought to get them planted tomorrow, haven't we?
ZOE CRICK: Good idea. We could do with spending some time cleaning out the coops, as well.
EUGENE WOODS: I can sort that out. You two have got your hands full on the garden.
ZOE CRICK: You sure, Gene?
EUGENE WOODS: Yeah. It'll do me good to stretch the leg a bit. Can't spend all day cooped up in the kitchen.
PHIL CHEESEMAN: What's that noise?
EUGENE WOODS: What noise?
PHIL CHEESEMAN: That beeping noise?
JACK HOLDEN: Smoke detector?
PHIL CHEESEMAN: As if there are still working smoke detectors, Jack.
JACK HOLDEN: All right! Just trying to help.
PHIL CHEESEMAN: There it is again.
JACK HOLDEN: Oh yeah!
ZOE CRICK: Oh God. I know what that is. Mics are running out of battery.
OTHERS: Oh yeah...
EUGENE WOODS: It's funny. You forget you're wearing these things, don't you?
PHIL CHEESEMAN: Yeah. Should I stick them on to charge?
ZOE CRICK: No, it's okay. I'll hook them up in the cupbord before I go to bed.
PHIL CHEESEMAN: Cool.
JACK HOLDEN: Right then, whose turn is it? Papa needs some sheep to build a settlement.
[mics beep]
JACK HOLDEN: [yawns] All right, guys, I'm off to bed.
ZOE CRICK: Good night, Jack.
PHIL CHEESEMAN: Night!
EUGENE WOODS: I'll be in after I finish this chapter.
JACK HOLDEN: No worries. See you in the morning.
[mics beep]
EUGENE WOODS: It's weird, isn't it?
JACK HOLDEN: What is? How [?] your hair is getting or the way you're hogging all the covers? [laughs]
EUGENE WOODS: [laughs] No, dummy. Just... this. How far we've come.
JACK HOLDEN: Yeah. Yeah. Never would have thought we'd have gone from that cramped old shack to this place.
EUGENE WOODS: No.
JACK HOLDEN: Remember the way you were the first few days?
EUGENE WOODS: [laughs] Hey, now.
JACK HOLDEN: [imitates EUGENE WOODS] "Um, uh, I'm Eugene Woods. Um, uh, this is Radio Abel."
EUGENE WOODS: Aha, very funny, Mister "Falls Asleep On Mic."
JACK HOLDEN: That was a fear-based nap! A reaction to how worried I was about you. A compassion snooze.
EUGENE WOODS: Whatever you say, love. ... I still can't believe you did all this for me. This... this saved my life.
JACK HOLDEN: Eugene Benjamin Woods, if you think there's anything I wouldn't do for you, you are an even bigger idiot than I thought.
EUGENE WOODS: Oh, come here!
[mics beep]
[door opens, footsteps]
EUGENE WOODS: Jack, can you get me the carboys? I need to transfer this batch before I set the next one on to brew.
JACK HOLDEN: Are they in the cupboard?
EUGENE WOODS: Uh, I think so. Have a look.
[footsteps, door creaks open]
JACK HOLDEN: [rummages] Carboys. Carboys... [laughs] Is this old thing still on?

The Secret of the Mysteries of God
And the angel which I saw stand upon the sea and upon the earth lifted up his hand to heaven, and sware by him that liveth for ever and ever, who created heaven, and the things that therein are, and the earth, and the things that therein are, and the sea, and the things which are therein, that there should be time no longer.
But in the days of the voice of the seventh angel, when he shall begin to sound, THE MYSTERY OF GOD SHOULD BE FINISHED, as he hath declared to his servants the prophets.
Revelation 10:5-7
This is a great prophecy. The mystery of God will be finished in the days of the voice of the seventh angel. God will answer all our questions and solve all the mysteries that surround us. God will explain everything that disturbed us and confused us whilst we served Him here below. This promise will take place in the days of the voice of the seventh angel.
God is a God of mystery and He has no apologies for that!
There are many illogical events, mysterious happenings and mysterious realities in our world today. Mystery is part of our lives on this earth. We try to serve God but we constantly experience things that defy our understanding.
God does not follow our logic! God does not do what we expect! God does not owe us explanations! We are nothing! Even within the universe the earth is but a dot in the sky!
God does not think the way we think. Many things about God are not clear. Often, the way we want things to turn out are not the way God will do them.
You will make many mistakes when you ignore the mysterious nature of God. God is mysterious! You cannot discount the mysteries of God.
The reason why God and His ways seem so mysterious to us is because our thoughts are vastly different from His thoughts. So many things God does are mysterious to us. Indeed our ways and thoughts are far – very far, from God’s ways.
“For My thoughts are not your thoughts, nor are your ways My ways”, declares the Lord.
For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are My ways higher than your ways and My thoughts than your thoughts.
Isaiah 55:8-9 (NASB)
The great prophecy of the seventh angel marks the ending of this mystery that surrounds God. At the voice of the seventh angel, a new and a far greater understanding of God will be born. Until then, you cannot live without accepting the mystery of God and humbling yourself under His mighty hand.
When you do not flow with this reality that God is a mysterious God who has no intention of revealing everything to us, you will make catastrophic mistakes in your life and ministry. You will make mistakes in your predictions, expectations, hopes, preaching and teaching. You will be strong and adamant about certain points when you should have been humble and open to the mysteries of God. You may even preach that you will live forever and never die, only to die in the midst of your years. These are some of the common mistakes we make when we do not want to accept the mysteries of God.
Before the seventh angel blows his trumpet, do not expect life to follow a logical trend. Expect mysterious events to spring up questions along your entire journey with the Lord.
What Happens When You Do Not Consider the Mysteries of God
1. When you don’t carefully consider the mysteries of God, you will predict outcomes that will not happen. You will make declarations about the future that will never come to pass. You will only predict good things when evil things are about to happen. You may think that God works with your logic, but He does not.
Who is he that saith, and it cometh to pass, when the Lord commandeth it not?
Lamentations 3:37
When you don’t carefully consider the mysteries of God, your expectations are cut off time and time and again. When you don’t carefully consider the mystery of God, you look like a fool because you told people what God would do but God did not do it. When you don’t carefully consider the mystery of God, you preach with arrogance and pride that will painfully be corrected in you. When you don’t carefully consider the mystery of God, you cannot understand the commandments of God since they don’t make logical sense to you.
2. When you don’t carefully consider the mysteries of God, you will explain things you do not really understand. You will explain why certain people died untimely deaths. When you don’t carefully consider the mystery of God, you will give reasons for why certain things have happened. Like Job’s friends, you will offer wrong reasons for tragedies and calamities that have taken place.
And it was so, that after the Lord had spoken these words unto Job, the Lord said to Eliphaz the Temanite, My wrath is kindled against thee, and against thy two friends: for ye have not spoken of me the thing that is right, as my servant Job hath.
Job 42:7
3. When you don’t carefully consider the mysteries of God, you will condemn things that God has not condemned. You will consider certain men of God to have fallen out of God’s approval only to discover them sitting on royal thrones in Heaven.
Who art thou that judgest another man’s servant? to his own master he standeth or falleth. Yea, he shall be holden up: for God is able to make him stand.
Romans 14:4
4. When you don’t carefully consider the mysteries of God, you will approve of things God does not approve of. Like Samuel, you will approve of people when they look good on the outward. You will not understand why God chooses certain people and uses them for mighty works. In your estimation, God should not choose certain people whom you despise. Mysteriously, God chose David, a young outcast of the family of Jesse and rejected his older, tall and handsome brothers.
But the Lord said unto Samuel, Look not on his countenance, or on the height of his stature; because I have refused him: for the Lord seeth not as man seeth; for man looketh on the outward appearance, but the Lord looketh on the heart.
1 Samuel 16:7
5. When you don’t carefully consider the mysteries of God, you will be disappointed and broken hearted and depressed when you should not be. The people who followed Jesus to the cross were broken-hearted and disappointed at the way their Saviour was being treated. They could not understand the great mystery that was unfolding.
And there followed him a great company of people, and of women, which also bewailed and lamented him.
But Jesus turning unto them said, Daughters of Jerusalem, weep not for me, but weep for yourselves, and for your children. For, behold, the days are coming, in the which they shall say, Blessed are the barren, and the wombs that never bare, and the paps which never gave suck.
Then shall they begin to say to the mountains, Fall on us; and to the hills, Cover us. For if they do these things in a green tree, what shall be done in the dry?
Luke 23:27-31
6. When you don’t carefully consider the mystery of God, you prepare for things wrongly. You may be preparing for a long life when you should be preparing for death. Mysteriously, God may want you to die instead of living longer. Jesus, the Son of God, died at the age of thirty-three. John the Baptist died at thirty. To men, it is puzzling but that is the mystery of God.
7. When you don’t carefully consider the mysteries of God, you battle with the instructions of God all the time and disobey many of them. Saul could not understand the instructions to kill everyone including king Agag, the women, the children and the animals from Amalek. God is mysterious and you must respect that mystery!
Then came the word of the Lord unto Samuel, saying, It repenteth me that I have set up Saul to be king: for he is turned back from following me, and hath not performed my commandments. And it grieved Samuel; and he cried unto the Lord all night.
1 Samuel 15:10-11
8. When you don’t carefully consider the mysteries of God, you have a wrong understanding of love and kindness. You will even have a wrong definition of good and evil. You will wrestle with scriptures like the one below. “How can God create evil?” you will ask. You will even attempt to be kinder than God.
I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the Lord do all these things.
Isaiah 45:7
9. When you don’t carefully consider the mysteries of God, you have a wrong definition of good and evil. Like Adam and Eve, you will want your own definition of what is right or wrong. Setting aside the mysterious will of God and trying to do your own thing will lead to much evil.
And the Lord God commanded the man, saying, Of every tree of the garden thou mayest freely eat: But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die.
Genesis 2:16-17
10.When you don’t carefully consider the mysteries of God, you will make wrong judgments about people’s marriages. In the Old Testament, the Bible seems to accept the concept of polygamy. Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, David, Solomon and all the kings of Israel were polygamists.
God is against divorce and adultery in both the Old Testament and the New Testament. All through the Old Testament, God showed His anger against idolatry. Yet He never commented about their polygamy. This is indeed a mystery. What exactly is God’s mind about marriage?
11.When you don’t carefully consider the mysteries of God, you may pass the wrong judgment on people who are divorced. You will find that God hates divorce and yet He himself declares that He has divorced Israel.
Thus says the Lord, Where is the certificate of divorce by which I have sent your mother away?
Or to whom of my creditors did I sell you? Behold, you were sold for your iniquities, and for your transgressions your mother was sent away.
Isaiah 50:1 (NASB)
12.When you don’t carefully consider the mysteries of God, you may abandon God and forsake the Word of God. This is what has happened to most Europeans. They cannot understand a mysterious God. The whole of Europe has forsaken God because they cannot understand the mysteries of God.

Plumber Adelaide- DIY Plumbing Tips
There are numerous plumbing tips that you can always employ instead of searching for the best Plumber Adelaide. In a bid to save on the little hard-earned cash that you may have for other important expenditures, not everything regarding Plumber Adelaide services should attract the attention of a professional Plumber Adelaide. As a matter of fact, you should only invite one if you feel it is necessary.
As a DIY technician for your family it is important to adhere to the following tips:
Know when it is ideal to cut as well as replace any part of your faucet
When to become aggressive with your setscrews
When to use the special tools
When you can throw in the towel
Below are some guides you can follow when doing Faucet repairs:
Plumber Adelaide – Cutting and replacing
Using a rotary device and cutting wheel, simply cut the cap side to fit what you want to achieve. You should not be very worried about the plastic seal since this is always replaceable. Also, while cutting the cap side, it is important to be very careful not to cut into the threads of the brass.
In case the cap does not freely twist, and it happens to be a metal, try heating it using a heating gun as you grip it using slip-joint pliers’ bare teeth. Should this fail, then it is advisable to try cutting the cap using a rotary device tool or cutting wheel. Follow this by jamming in a screwdriver with a flat blade and try widening the opening till the cap is unscrewed.
Plumber Adelaide – Getting aggressive with your setscrews
It is important to get an appropriate grip. This can be achieved through the use of a hex sockets as well as compound for valve grinding in order to prevent the set screws from stripping.
Should the hex tag fail to loosen, do not force it; as this can ruin the bead. Simply buy a tube of compound valve for grinding and then apply to the tip of the hex. This should then be followed by freely breaking the screws using a ratchet.
Plumber Adelaide – Replacement
When you feel that the faucet is not getting repaired appropriately, it is important to have it replaced. Once this is done, try checking the spout for leaks, if the leak persists, it is then imperative to do a complete overhaul to the inner side of the spout.
When all this fails, you can then invite a professional Plumber Adelaide to initiate complete plumbing services. This will in the long run give you peace of mind.
If you have an issue with a blocked drain Adelaide or hot water system Adelaide, then you need a 24-hour plumber Adelaide or an emergency plumber Adelaide to service you. You might also reach out to a gas plumber Adelaide to help you. Its important that you have a plumber Adelaideor an Adelaide Plumber and Adelaide plumbers you can trust.

A Fruit to Ward off Evil Spirits
First, a catch-up on the dangling threads from previous posts. Remember those candy roaster squash the size of mannequin thighs?  Well, one squash goes a long way. It made two pies at Thanksgiving.  We used a simple recipe from BigOven, a blog and app that's kind of like Pinterest for cooks. The ingredients handily filled two pie shells:
1 1/2 cups heavy cream 
2 cups squash puree 
4 eggs beaten
1/2 cup white sugar 
1/4 cup brown sugar 
1/8 tsp ground cloves
1/8 tsp ground allspice
Tumblr media
Front and center: the candy roaster squash pie
The squash, sliced length wise, seeds removed, was baked face down in the oven and easily came loose from the skin. It only required mashing with a fork--no sieve and very few strings. I tasted the pure, baked pulp. It carried the essence of squash but sweeter. Not as sweet, however, as a Covington--my favorite N.C. sweet potato from down east. The baked pies were understated and delicate, not at all heavy. In the battery of desserts that were assembled at the end of the meal this Thanksgiving, the candy roaster stood out as refreshing, not cloying, with no whipped cream necessary. Would I eat this pie again?  No question.  However, I carried the other squash, which was heavier than a Louisville Slugger, and heaved it into the open arms of my Ashe County friend and master cook, Ellie Perzel, in the N.C. mountains. She says she plans to use it a little at a time in recipes calling for butternut squash.
As for the ongoing search for those sweet, red-fleshed Cara Cara oranges, it was not until mid December that I got a call from the writer Dawn Shamp reporting that the fruit had arrived at Harris Teeter in Chapel Hill. A few days later Jim Harb reported from Knoxville that he had found them at Kroger. Two days before Christmas I bought them at Food Lion at Holden Beach on the North Carolina coast. Bagged and tagged by Sunkist, these oranges are from California, not Florida, as in past years. They are smaller than other navel oranges. The pulp is as red as this morning's dawn on the Atlantic, but the sweetness is a bit muted and varies from orange to orange in the two bags I've sampled. Refrigeration makes them more delicious.
Tumblr media
Like a Rorschach test, the pomelo’s interior and exterior alongside the magnificent Cara Cara orange--a citrus celebration at year’s end!
The end of the year is also the time to find Pomelo, or Pummelo as it is sometimes labeled. This ancient fruit is the ancestor of the grapefruit, but larger, sweeter, and rather expensive, but worth it. Five dollars per fruit at Fresh Market or $1.99 a pound at Publix, I found. 
I first tasted pomelo about a decade ago when my longtime friend Carrie Knowles, a writer and artist from Raleigh, came over with her family for enchiladas.  She brought a salad that night made of pomelo, pomegrante, and pecans--alliterative, colorful, and refreshing. As pomelos have become more common, recipes for such salads abound online these days and feature other trendy ingredients, such as arugula, avocado, pistachios, chile, lime, and peanuts.  One even calls for pork belly.
According to The Oxford Companion to Food, the pomelo or Citrus grandis, "almost certainly originated in Malaysia or Indonesia" and also grew wild in China. It is one of the four original citrus fruits on the planet and the largest. These fruits can grow to the size of a volleyball and some weigh more than 20 pounds, but what you are most likely to find in the grocery was probably grown in Florida or California, weighing around two pounds. The fruit is generally wider than tall--so not truly round--and the skin is often pocked and the color a variegated yellow/green. 
The provenance of the pomelo I plan to serve this evening with grilled shrimp is Winter Haven, Florida, grown by the Roe family, who have run their company, Noble Citrus, since 1927. The Roes started out with tangerines and added other fruits to their offerings over the years, including blueberries and Cara Cara oranges. Their variety of pomelo is called "Florida Starburst,"  which may be more of a marketing name than an actual variety. Other Florida growers swear by a Japanese variety called Hirado Butan, apparently introduced in the 1960s.  Both have pink flesh, though some varieties of pomelo actually have white flesh. Regardless, it is necessary to cut though the thick rind and separate the juicy clusters of meat from the white pockets that hold them in place.
In the store, pick a pomelo that is fully yellow and heavy, which is a sign of juiciness.  Like cantaloupes, I tend to pick ones that are especially ugly and mottled to get the best flavor and ripeness. The pomelo, however, is not to be confused with the Ugli--a Jamaican hybrid of grapefruit, orange, and tangerine--which you may also find in the produce section this winter.
Blooms and fruit appear simultaneously on the pomelo, and can hang on the tree from November to March in Florida according to one drawling grower who made a You Tube video to promote the fruit. (Though this grower suggests that pomelo will not interact with statin drugs as grapefruit does with some hazard, a Harvard doc reports that it depends on the statin, so if you can't eat grapefruit, don't eat pomelo either.
However, the healthful effects of eating pomelo have been touted for centuries. According to Frederick Simoons, writing in Food in China, a Cultural and Historical Inquiry, pomelo leaves are believed by the Cantonese to have magical properties and are added to the bathwater of children on New Year's Eve to cleanse the soul for a year. In South China the skin of pomelo is also used in a soak bath to ward off evil spirits. Since you are buying a whole lot of rind, compared to the cache of sweet fruit in the middle, this is good news.  I may have a soak myself on New Year's Eve.

Don’t panic. No-one is suggesting when we die our bodies should be scooped up and fed to hungry polar bears. Nothing quite that ghoulish. Though come to think of it, it’s not actually such a bad idea. I’d happily donate mine, if mama bear and her cubs could find enough meat on my skinny bones. But we’ll come to the what-to-do–with-our-dead-body bit shortly.
First the good news. Last week Professor Chris Thomas told us we should be cool about climate change and every other way humans are messing up the planet. Kick back and go with the flow. It’s just evolution taking its natural course. He also suggested we could be wasting good money trying to save endangered species that with the best will in the world, are headed inexorably for extinction. Well Prof Chris, maybe you should cast your eye over this –
“This paper sends a clear, positive message: Conservation funding works!”
So says John Gittleman, senior author of a new report about the effects on biodiversity of funding put into conservation projects around the world since the 1992 Rio Earth Summit. The results from the global study are in, and it’s looking good:
The $14.4 billion spent on conservation 1992-2003 reduced expected declines in global biodiversity by 29%
109 countries signatory to the United Nations Convention on Biological Diversity saw a significantly reduced biodiversity loss
7 countries – Mauritius, Seychelles, Fiji, Samoa, Tonga, Poland and Ukraine saw their biodiversity improve between 1992-2008
7 other countries – Indonesia, Malaysia, Papua New Guinea, China, India, Australia, and Hawaii in the US are the locations where 60% of the world’s loss of biodiversity occurs
That last statistic doesn’t sound like good news, but it sort of is. If there are only 7 countries where most biodiversity loss is concentrated, then a little money in the right places goes a long way. Or, as Prof Gittleman puts it, “The good news is that a lot of biodiversity would be protected for relatively little cost by investments in countries with high numbers of species.”
“From this study, we know approximately how much a conservation dollar buys and where in the world it is best spent.” 
Now, the study’s method of data analysis will provide policy-makers in every country of the world a fantastic new tool for setting accurate conservation budgets. And that in turn will help them achieve internationally-agreed conservation goals.
Study’, ‘findings’, ‘statistics’, ‘report’ – those words have a pretty dull and clunky sound to them. But in fact, it would be hard to overplay the importance of this research work – it’s a godsend for the entire international community in our attempts “to balance human development with maintaining biodiversity….[and achieving] true sustainability.” All of which equals more animals saved.
Tumblr media
Now that’s what I call good news – and who’d have thought data analysis could be so exciting!
Where to put to rest our mortal remains
Now we have the proof that conservation funding delivers results, where to find those funds?
We don’t like to think too much about the end of our days, but wouldn’t it be brilliant if there was a way to continue helping animals from beyond the grave? Well now there is, with Dr Matthew Holden’s genius idea. We could call it ‘Green Burial Plus‘.
Green burials are gaining in popularity, I’m glad to say. No pollutants like the formaldehyde and non-biodegradable materials used in traditional burials. And no trees cut down to create the traditional coffin – no waste of Earth’s precious resources reduced to ashes and releasing greenhouse gases. Instead we get to help provide a natural habitat for wildlife, with the satisfaction of knowing all the stardust in our bodies is returning to the earth. For once, a human life and death can nourish the planet rather than deplete it. This has to be the be-all and end-all, literally, of recycling.
So what could be better than a green burial?
Dr Holden’s idea, that’s what: Use burial fees to buy and manage new land specifically for wildlife habitat. Is that it? Yes, that’s it. It’s that simple. “The nature reserve [where our bodies would be buried] could be placed in an area that specifically maximises benefits for endangered wildlife.”
Tumblr media
Isn’t that the best?
How would this work? Well, take the US as an example. With 2.7 million folk reaching the end of their days each year, roughly $19 billion is being spent annually on funerals. Compare that huge sum with the mere $3-$5 billion the IUCN (International Union for the Conservation of Nature) reckons are required to protect every threatened species on their lists.
And in the US conservation burial reserves are already a thing. There aren’t enough though. We need many many more in the US, in the UK – in every country if this way of conserving wildlife is to have any impact.
If we could get the powers that be to actually care enough about conservation, national registers on the model of organ donor registers could be set up for those of us who wish to donate our bodies and our funeral expenses to wildlife reserves. What a difference it would make. If we could…
Sadly, nothing is ever that plain sailing, is it? These are black times and conservation has serious opposition.
The Backlash – the Deadly Rise of Populism
“The recent trend toward populist politics has occurred, in part, as a result of a cultural backlash, where select segments of society have rallied against progressive social changes of the later 20th and early 21st centuries. This trend includes the Brexit vote in England, [and the] election of Donald Trump as U.S. President.”
Q. What has this got to do with conservation and wildlife? A. Everything.
Are you a populist? More likely a mutualist, I imagine. Mutualists see wildlife as “fellow beings in a common social community” – as opposed to populists who still cling to traditional ideas of human dominion over nonhuman animals, and view wildlife as either vermin to be exterminated, or quarry for their so-called sport.
Millennials swept forward on a tide of progressive ideas, mutualism for one. Just look at the incredible rise of veganism over the last couple of decades, matched by an ever-expanding interest in conservation and green issues. A survey in the millennial year 2000, found that 20 million Americans were registered members of the top 30 environmental organisations.²
But – and there’s always a but, isn’t there – Newton’s 3rd Law, “For every action force there is an equal and opposite reaction force”, is as true in society as it is in physics. Backlash was inevitable. In the US, the explosion between 2000 and 2016 of ballot initiatives to protect hunting rights is one sign of the pushback. This War on Wolves infographic exemplifies America’s populist backlash against conservation.
Tumblr media
‘America First’ puts wildlife last
Donald Trump, the epitome of populism. To say he is an enemy of wildlife is an understatement. More like the grim reaper.
“With President Trump at the helm of our nation’s wildlife ark, we are setting an irreversible collision course toward an environmental catastrophe of epic proportions.”¹
Here are some of his proposals for the 2018 federal budget:-
Funding for the agencies involved in combating wildlife poaching and trafficking, cut by more than half from $90.7 million to $40.9 million
Funding for USAID’s biodiversity program which in 2017 aided conservation projects in 50 countries, cut from $265 million to $69.9 million
USFWS’s International Species program for African and Asian elephants, great apes, migratory birds, tigers, rhinos and sea turtles, cut from $9.15 million to zero
Funding to protect new species under the Endangered Species Act cut by 17%
Funding for the Cooperative Endangered Species Conservation Fund, cut $34 million, a 64% reduction
Funding for the State Department’s International Conservation Program giving financial support to the most important wildlife organisations including the IUCN, cut to zero
The savings made are less than a flea bite in a total federal budget of $1.15 trillion, but will spell the death sentence to thousands of animals all over the world.
Tumblr media
Who will benefit?
Poachers and criminal trafficking cartels
Who will suffer?
Poor communities in Africa and Asia. Elephants, pangolins, lions, giraffes, snow leopards, great apes, migratory birds, tigers, rhinos, sea turtles and many many more.
That’s just abroad. At home, the Environmental Protection Agency has become the Environmental Pulverisation Agency under Trump’s appointee Scott Pruitt.
And as for That Wall at a cost of $1.6 billion – what a long way $1.6 billion would go protecting wildlife! Trump’s border wall will imperil at least 93 endangered and threatened species, including jaguars and ocelots, and cut its malignant swathe through several important wildlife refuges.
The POTUS’s war on wildlife will decimate many of America’s iconic species, and could see wolves for just one, after 20 years of tireless conservation efforts to save them from the brink, pushed once again to the cliff edge of extinction.
Tumblr media
Wonderful as Matthew Holden’s vision is of reserves paid for by our burial fees, the clock is ticking for precious wildlife. The animals can’t wait for our demise. They need us now.
Congress has yet to sign off on Trump’s life-butchering budget. So if you are a US citizen, now is the time to let Congress hear your voice for wildlife.

Isaiah 42
ISAIAH 42-
Isaiah 42:19 Who is blind, but my servant? or deaf, as my messenger that I sent? who is blind as he that is perfect, and blind as the LORD's servant?
https://youtu.be/AcBLzUumCjw Isaiah 42
https://ccoutreach87.files.wordpress.com/2017/05/5-19-17-isaiah-42.zip
https://ccoutreach87.com/5-19-17-isaiah-42/
I made this video [Below] the other day with some friends- Bobby shares a good testimony about a healing. I made 2 videos because Youtube might mute theirs- the radio was on in the background- copyright thing.
https://vimeo.com/219162562  Albert- Bobby- Casanova- Angel
https://youtu.be/17SQyS5T-Ec Albert- Bobby- Casanova- Angel
 ON VIDEO-
.Review
.Did you see it?
.Baptism of fire
.The deer dream
.Andrea Yates?
.Was the dream from God?
.Would you die?
.Righteous indignation- or hatred?
.Who set the fire?
.How do we remember Peter?
.Many things to say unto you
.The promise of death?
 NEW- [Past posts- Verses below] I made this video ‘off the cuff’ on a Friday night [I might have said it was Saturday on the video]. I was reading at night- doing my nightly devotional reading.
As I read Isaiah 42- the last verse spoke about á fire- a fire that comes from God-
Isaiah 42:25 Therefore he hath poured upon him the fury of his anger, and the strength of battle: and it hath set him on fire round about, yet he knew not; and it burned him, yet he laid it not to heart.
The day before I did one my my ‘roll outs’.
 And the theme was the same.
I actually spoke about the baptism of fire- using the story from the garden of Eden-
New Living Translation After sending them out, the LORD God stationed mighty cherubim to the east of the Garden of Eden. And he placed a flaming sword that flashed back and forth to guard the way to the tree of life.
 How after man sinned- God put an angel with a ‘flaming sword’ to keep the garden [here's the link to that post- https://ccoutreach87.com/2017/05/19/thursday-5-18-17/ ].
 Whats was interesting is I went to the park to see my friends- and asked if Claire and Crow had a ‘word from the Lord’.
 Sure enough Claire brought up the story of the 3 Hebrews who were thrown into the fire- and how they came out alive.
 It was actually the same theme I spoke about earlier in the day- of course Claire had no idea that I taught it on the earlier videos.
 I’ll add the verses below- but what was interesting is to see how God confirms his word.
 He uses anyone- even my homeless friends- to do it.
The baptism of fire is an important teaching in the bible- John the Baptist said- Luke 3:16
John answered, saying unto them all, I indeed baptize you with water; but one mightier than I cometh, the latchet of whose shoes I am not worthy to unloose: he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost and with fire:
 And John the apostle saw it in a vision-
Revelation 15:2
And I saw as it were a sea of glass mingled with fire: and them that had gotten the victory over the beast, and over his image, and over his mark, and over the number of his name, stand on the sea of glass, having the harps of God.
 Yes- the fire of the Spirit purges us- it is a baptism that Jesus said we all must go thru-
22 But Jesus answered and said, Ye know not what ye ask. Are ye able to drink of the cup that I shall drink of, and to be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with? They say unto him, We are able.
23 And he saith unto them, Ye shall drink indeed of my cup, and be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with: but to sit on my right hand, and on my left, is not mine to give, but it shall be given to them for whom it is prepared of my Father.
Paul himself talked about it- 1 Corinthians 10:2
And were all baptized unto Moses in the cloud and in the sea;
[Cloud= Spirit/fire baptism- Sea= water. Clouds are above- heavenly- see?]
 Acts 14:22
Confirming the souls of the disciples, and exhorting them to continue in the faith, and that we must through much tribulation enter into the kingdom of God.
 Remember when you are going thru the fire- it is a work of God-
Isaiah 48:10
Behold, I have refined thee, but not with silver; I have chosen thee in the furnace of affliction.
 The fire has a lasting effect- after it falls on us- it effects others too-
 The burden of the word of the Lord for Israel, saith the Lord, which stretcheth forth the heavens, and layeth the foundation of the earth, and formeth the spirit of man within him.
2 Behold, I will make Jerusalem a cup of trembling unto all the people round about, when they shall be in the siege both against Judah and against Jerusalem.
3 And in that day will I make Jerusalem a burdensome stone for all people: all that burden themselves with it shall be cut in pieces, though all the people of the earth be gathered together against it.
4 In that day, saith the Lord, I will smite every horse with astonishment, and his rider with madness: and I will open mine eyes upon the house of Judah, and will smite every horse of the people with blindness.
5 And the governors of Judah shall say in their heart, The inhabitants of Jerusalem shall be my strength in the Lord of hosts their God.
6 In that day will I make the governors of Judah like an hearth of fire among the wood, and like a torch of fire in a sheaf; and they shall devour all the people round about, on the right hand and on the left: and Jerusalem shall be inhabited again in her own place, even in Jerusalem. Zech 12

VERSES-
Isaiah 42:1 Behold my servant, whom I uphold; mine elect, in whom my soul delighteth; I have put my spirit upon him: he shall bring forth judgment to the Gentiles.
Isaiah 42:2 He shall not cry, nor lift up, nor cause his voice to be heard in the street.
Isaiah 42:3 A bruised reed shall he not break, and the smoking flax shall he not quench: he shall bring forth judgment unto truth.
Isaiah 42:4 He shall not fail nor be discouraged, till he have set judgment in the earth: and the isles shall wait for his law.
Isaiah 42:5 Thus saith God the LORD, he that created the heavens, and stretched them out; he that spread forth the earth, and that which cometh out of it; he that giveth breath unto the people upon it, and spirit to them that walk therein:
Isaiah 42:6 I the LORD have called thee in righteousness, and will hold thine hand, and will keep thee, and give thee for a covenant of the people, for a light of the Gentiles;
Isaiah 42:7 To open the blind eyes, to bring out the prisoners from the prison, and them that sit in darkness out of the prison house.
Isaiah 42:8 I am the LORD: that is my name: and my glory will I not give to another, neither my praise to graven images.
Isaiah 42:9 Behold, the former things are come to pass, and new things do I declare: before they spring forth I tell you of them.
Isaiah 42:10 Sing unto the LORD a new song, and his praise from the end of the earth, ye that go down to the sea, and all that is therein; the isles, and the inhabitants thereof.
Isaiah 42:11 Let the wilderness and the cities thereof lift up their voice, the villages that Kedar doth inhabit: let the inhabitants of the rock sing, let them shout from the top of the mountains.
Isaiah 42:12 Let them give glory unto the LORD, and declare his praise in the islands.
Isaiah 42:13 The LORD shall go forth as a mighty man, he shall stir up jealousy like a man of war: he shall cry, yea, roar; he shall prevail against his enemies.
Isaiah 42:14 I have long time holden my peace; I have been still, and refrained myself: now will I cry like a travailing woman; I will destroy and devour at once.
Isaiah 42:15 I will make waste mountains and hills, and dry up all their herbs; and I will make the rivers islands, and I will dry up the pools.
Isaiah 42:16 And I will bring the blind by a way that they knew not; I will lead them in paths that they have not known: I will make darkness light before them, and crooked things straight. These things will I do unto them, and not forsake them.
Isaiah 42:17 They shall be turned back, they shall be greatly ashamed, that trust in graven images, that say to the molten images, Ye are our gods.
Isaiah 42:18 Hear, ye deaf; and look, ye blind, that ye may see.
Isaiah 42:19 Who is blind, but my servant? or deaf, as my messenger that I sent? who is blind as he that is perfect, and blind as the LORD's servant?
Isaiah 42:20 Seeing many things, but thou observest not; opening the ears, but he heareth not.
Isaiah 42:21 The LORD is well pleased for his righteousness' sake; he will magnify the law, and make it honourable.
Isaiah 42:22 But this is a people robbed and spoiled; they are all of them snared in holes, and they are hid in prison houses: they are for a prey, and none delivereth; for a spoil, and none saith, Restore.
Isaiah 42:23 Who among you will give ear to this? who will hearken and hear for the time to come?
Isaiah 42:24 Who gave Jacob for a spoil, and Israel to the robbers? did not the LORD, he against whom we have sinned? for they would not walk in his ways, neither were they obedient unto his law.
Isaiah 42:25 Therefore he hath poured upon him the fury of his anger, and the strength of battle: and it hath set him on fire round about, yet he knew not; and it burned him, yet he laid it not to heart.
Isaiah 50:7
For the Lord God will help me; therefore shall I not be confounded: therefore have I set my face like a flint, and I know that I shall not be ashamed.

16 He saith to him again the second time, Simon, son of Jonas, lovest thou me? He saith unto him, Yea, Lord; thou knowest that I love thee. He saith unto him, Feed my sheep.
17 He saith unto him the third time, Simon, son of Jonas, lovest thou me? Peter was grieved because he said unto him the third time, Lovest thou me? And he said unto him, Lord, thou knowest all things; thou knowest that I love thee. Jesus saith unto him, Feed my sheep.
18 Verily, verily, I say unto thee, When thou wast young, thou girdest thyself, and walkedst whither thou wouldest: but when thou shalt be old, thou shalt stretch forth thy hands, and another shall gird thee, and carry thee whither thou wouldest not.

Blocked Drain Adelaide – Hydro Jetting – The New Advanced Technology
Hydro Jetting drain cleaning is a relatively new advanced technology that provides an extremely effective service to clean out a blocked drain Adelaide. Over time your sewer line and drains, like the kitchen sink drain, build up debris that settles in the drainpipes.  This can create sludge like material that causes a blocked drain Adelaide.
A Cable Machine was Traditionally Used to Clear Your Blocked Drain Adelaide
Traditionally, a plumber would use a cable machine to snake your drain. This method has proved to be not very efficient as the blockages return within a short period of time. One of the reasons that this method does not work, is there is no way to get to the root cause of the blocked drain Adelaide. Over time the build-up process continues, and you end up with the same problem.
The Use of a Hydro Jetter for Your Blocked Drain Adelaide
Hydro Jetting uses a special high-powered water jet stream to flush out your drains, making them exceptionally clean.  The hydro jetters used by Adelaide 24 Hour Plumbing have the ability to deliver water at incredible cutting force under thousands of pounds of pressure per square inch. Hydro Jetting will remove the debris that has accumulated in the blocked drain Adelaide over the past months and even years. You are left with a drain system that is functioning as it should be, clear of debris and waste build up.
Further benefits of Hydro Jetting are that it is so powerful, it can even remove tree root debris that have gotten into your sewer pipes. With hydro jetting technology the tree root debris is completely removed, and you are back to having a clean sewer drain quickly.
Regular Hydro Jet Cleaning Is Ideal for Commercial Food businesses to Prevent a Blocked Drain Adelaide
Many restaurants require Hydro Jet drain cleaning. Grease builds up very quickly in restaurants. In some restaurants, a sewer line can become impacted in 3 months with grease causing the bar area to flood and the floor drains in the bathrooms to overflow with sewer water. Hydro Jet drain cleaning is one of the most effective options when it comes to grease blockages.
The hydro Jet drain-cleaning machine is on a truck or mounted on a trailer that is powered by an engine. The machine pressurizes water to roughly 4000 psi through a hose with a special nozzle attached that scours the inside of the drain pipe removing the buildup of grease and debris that have formed inside the drain pipe. When the cleaning nozzle is inserted into the drain it slowly breaks down the grease so that it can safely drain into the sewer system. It’s important to have a Plumber Adelaide use a hydro jet to flush your drainage system in your restaurant or bar every 3-5 months to keep your establishment operating without any plumbing interruptions.
Blocked Drain Adelaide and the Importance of a Drain Camera Adelaide
There are times when hydro jetting does not work. This can occur when there are cracks in your sewer or drain pipes. Cracks in the pipes are a sign that the strength of the entire system has been compromised and needs to be repaired promptly before completely collapsing. A Plumber Adelaide with the use of a drain camera will be able to establish if there are any cracks or broken sections in your sewerage or drain pipes. Once the exact location of the damage has been determined they can then commence replacing the damaged section only without disturbing the rest of your drainage system.
For all your Blocked Drain Adelaide get a Plumber Adelaide with the right equipment and knowledge to fix the problem.
If you have an issue with a blocked drain Adelaide or hot water system Adelaide, then you need a 24-hour plumber Adelaide or an emergency plumber Adelaide to service you. You might also reach out to a gas plumber Adelaide to help you. Its important that you have a plumber Adelaideor an Adelaide Plumber and Adelaide plumbers you can trust.

Blocked Drain Adelaide - Hydro Jetting Made Simple
Hydro Jetting drain cleaning is a relatively new advanced technology that provides an extremely effective service to clean out a blocked drain Adelaide system
Over time your sewer line and drains, like the kitchen sink drain, build up debris that settles in the drainpipes.  This can create sludge like material that clogs your pipes and causes a blocked drain Adelaide.
Blocked Drain Adelaide – Use Of a cable Machine
Traditionally, a plumber Adelaide would use a cable machine to snake your blocked drain Adelaide. This method has proved to be not very efficient as the clogs return within a short few months. One of the reasons that this method does not work, is there is no way to get to the root cause of the blocked drain Adelaide. Over time the buildup process continues, and you end up with the same problem.
Hydro Jetting Uses a High-Powered Water Jet to Clear Your Blocked Drain Adelaide
Hydro Jetting uses a special high-powered water jet stream to flush out your blocked drain Adelaide, making them exceptionally clean.  The hydro jetters used by Adelaide 24 Hour Plumbing your local plumber Adelaide can deliver water at incredible cutting force under thousands of pounds of pressure per square inch. Hydro Jetting will remove the debris that has accumulated in the blocked drain Adelaide over the past months and even years. You are left with a drain system that is functioning as it should be, clear of debris and waste build up.
Further benefits of Hydro Jetting are that it is so powerful, it can even remove tree root debris that has gotten into your sewer pipes. With hydro jetting technology the tree root debris is completely removed, and you are back to having a clean sewer drain quickly.
Hydro Jet Drain Cleaning is Effective in Clearing Grease from a Blocked Drain Adelaide
Many restaurants require Hydro Jet drain cleaning. Grease builds up very quickly in restaurants. In some restaurants, a sewer line can become impacted in 3 months with grease causing the bar area to flood and the floor drains in the bathrooms to overflow with sewer water. Hydro Jet drain cleaning is one of the most effective options when it comes to grease blockages and blocked drains Adelaide.
The hydro Jet drain-cleaning machine is on a truck or mounted on a trailer that is powered by an engine. The machine pressurizes water to roughly 4000 psi through a hose with a special nozzle attached that scours the inside of the blocked drain Adelaide removing the buildup of grease and debris that have formed inside the blocked drain Adelaide. When the cleaning nozzle is inserted into the blocked drain Adelaide it slowly breaks down the grease so that it can safely drain into the sewer system. It’s important to hydro jet your restaurant or bar every 3-5 months to keep your establishment operating without any plumbing interruptions.
Cracks in Your Drain Pipes of Your Blocked Drain Adelaide
There are times when hydro jetting does not work. This can occur if there are cracks in your sewer and drain pipes. Cracks in the pipes are a sign that the strength of the entire system has been compromised and needs to be repaired promptly before completely collapsing.
If you have an issue with a blocked drain Adelaide or hot water system Adelaide, then you need a 24-hour plumber Adelaide or an emergency plumber Adelaide to service you. You might also reach out to a gas plumber Adelaide to help you. Its important that you have a plumber Adelaide or an Adelaide Plumber and Adelaide plumbers you can trust. Plumbers Adelaide offer excellent service. We also specialize in drain camera Adelaide and carbon monoxide testing Adelaide and plumbing Adelaide services.

Leaking Tap Adelaide - Advice You Cant Go Past
It is extremely easy to change the washer on a leaky household tap. (Note: In some parts of Australia it is illegal to change tap washers yourself – you must call in a licensed plumber to do the job. Double check with the water supply authority in your own state.)
A tap can leak in three places: from the tap washer through the spout where the spindle screws into the head around the body washer
Tools and materials for a leaking tap Adelaide
The tools and materials you need to change a washer are available from hardware or plumbing supply stores. You will require: adjustable spanner to fit tap nut Valve or tap washer Body washer O-ring Silicon lubricant or Vaseline Needle nose pliers
Method
Turn off the water mains: this stops all water flowing into your house. The tap & water meter for homes will probably be out on the street or in your front yard adjacent to the street. If you live in a flat or townhouse the mains tap will probably be inside, for example in the bathroom or a cupboard. Turn on a tap in or around the house to make sure that the water has ceased to run. (If the water has not stopped running, it will be necessary to call a professional plumber). If the mains tap has not been used for many years, you may need a pair of multi-grips to help turn it off. Ensure you need to know where the mains tap is to be able to turn the water off in an emergency. If you are not sure where it is, even if you don’t need to change a washer, find out now!
Undo the head nut: once the mains water has been turned off, undo the head nut on the leaking tap.
Replace the washers: you could just replace the tap washer, but it is a good idea to replace all three washers at the same time. These are: The large washer around the head nut, which is called the body washer (usually orange in colour). It should lift off quite easily. The O-ring on the spindle. To change the O-ring, you need to fully close the tap until the O-ring appears. Then, with a pair of needle nose pliers (or a screwdriver or a sharp knife), prise or cut it off. The new O-ring should easily stretch and roll on to the spindle.
Lastly, replace the tap washer. It may simply slide out of the spindle or stay sitting in the body of the tap, in which case you will need a pair of small pliers to remove the washer.
Reassemble: first ensure the spindle and the threaded areas are lubricated with a silicon lubricant or Vaseline.
Turn the mains back on: once the tap is reassembled, open it half way and then turn on the mains. When turning the tap off after the washer has been replaced, use gentle finger pressure. Over-tightening will cause a lot of damage to the tap seat. A tap should only be tightened until the water flow stops, no further. (Note:If the tap is still leaking after you have replaced the washer, it means the seat is “pitted” and you will need a plumber to regrind the seat for you.
Further information on leaking tap Adelaide
Most of inside taps take 12mm (1/2″) washers; while outside taps (garden taps) take 3/4″ (18mm). Washers cost around $2.00 to $3.00 each. The most popular washer (used by most plumbers) is a heavy-duty washer suitable for hot and cold taps, with a copper base and a yellow top (Delaware valve) – approximately $3.00 each. This same type of washer is good for outside garden taps – 18mm costs approximately $3.00 each.
If your taps are very old, take the worn-out washer to the hardware or plumbers’ supply store so that you get the right washer for your tap.
