The story will include material unseen in the televised series and will explore the lives and back stories of the characters in much greater depth. The novel is scheduled for release in August 2014. It will also be released in the USA by Minotaur Books. </span><br /><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span><b><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">What the writers had to say:</span></b><br /><b><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></b><br /><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Chris Chibnall: “The day after Broadchurch finished, a woman stopped me on <st1:place w:st="on"><st1:placename w:st="on">West</st1:placename> <st1:placetype w:st="on">Bay</st1:placetype></st1:place> beach and asked me “When’s the book coming out?”. Now I have an answer! Even better, we have one of <st1:country-region w:st="on">Britain</st1:country-region>’s best psychological thriller authors at the helm. I’ve loved <st1:place w:st="on">Erin</st1:place>’s work for a long time now: her writing is beautiful, emotive and suffused with tension. From the moment I first read her gorgeous insights into a world and characters I thought I knew well, I was hooked and desperate to read more.”</span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br /></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Erin Kelly: “Like everyone else I know, I was gripped and moved by Broadchurch. I’m utterly thrilled to be writing the novel, not least because it gave me an excuse to watch the whole series again, multiple times. It’s testament to the writing, the performances and the photography that I was spellbound even when I knew the outcome. I can’t wait to delve even deeper into the hearts and thoughts of the characters and to bring the town to life on the page.”</span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The hit series starred David Tennant, Olivia Colman and Arthur Darvill and followed the impact on a small English seaside town of the shocking murder of a schoolboy.

If it took 30 years for real net worth per capita to roughly double from 1982 to 2012, then it will take 60 years for it to roughly double again. That's assuming we even should extrapolate past history into the distant future of course. I for one am skeptical, especially now that we've entered a <a href="http://www.businessinsider.com/koo-says-no-one-can-refute-the-qe-trap-2013-10">"QE Trap"</a>.<br /><br /><div style="color: #666666;"><i>"I sensed the Fed’s full attention is now devoted to the question of whether and when to 'taper' its purchases of longer-term Treasury securities, leaving officials little time to think about long-term costs and scenarios," he writes. "The same could be said for the <span style="color: red;">market participants</span> I met with in New York and Boston, where the typical response was 'we <span style="color: red;">haven’t thought that far ahead</span>' or 'it’s tomorrow’s problem.'"</i></div><br />The high points are following an exponential trend, implying that the bubbles are growing exponentially over time (relative to the linear base line). I expect an epic failure that even mainstream economists can see coming if we get anywhere near that blue trend line again. Note that the data only goes through June of 2013. The <a href="http://research.stlouisfed.org/fred2/graph/?g=nNA">stock market's up another 7%</a> since then. <a href="http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20070503112400AAOgWfN">To the moon, Alice!</a><br /><br />This chart is more disturbing if one factors in that the federal, state, and local debts are not included in the household net worth as calculated by our government. That's not quite true. We get credit for owning them as households, just not as owing them. Win win. Perhaps we'll someday find an alien species that we can bill instead of American households. That must be the thinking.<br /><br />If my net worth is $10,000 and I loan it all to the government then the government would claim my net worth is still $10,000. If the government then spends the $10,000 to keep the government running then my net worth is still $10,000. I'd only be in big trouble if the government actually taxed me $10,000 to pay me off. But why do that? Stick with what works! Deficit spending for the win!<br /><br />The chart is even more disturbing if one factors in rising wealth inequality. I doubt that real median net worth would make such an optimistic looking chart. That's just my way of saying that there are parts of this economy that were financially subprime heading into the Great Recession and they remain financially subprime. In fact, there were <a href="http://www.fns.usda.gov/pd/34SNAPmonthly.htm">34% more households on SNAP in July 2013 than were on SNAP in October 2009</a>. How's that for a recovery!<br /><br />And lastly, who would have thought that the Fed could make the average household so much richer simply by helping us earn even less interest on our savings. Genius! And sustainable? Well, who can really say for sure?<br /><br />Sarcasm abounds. To the moon! Alien species! Government running! Optimistic! Sustainable!

Recall last Summer when someone went and shot up a bunch of power transformers down in California?<br /><br />They never did catch whoever that was, either.<br /><br />That was small potatoes friends, the authorities think it was the work of one individual.<br /><br />The following story comes out of Mexico and is a picture perfect lesson on exactly what is actually achievable with a little planning and some determined sonsabitches getting serious about things.<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><a href="http://www.latimes.com/world/worldnow/la-fg-wn-mexico-blow-up-nine-electrical-plants-20131027,0,3659405.story#axzz2j0KN3oWP"><br />                 <b>  Attackers in Mexico blow up nine electrical plants</b></a><br /> <br /><br /><blockquote><a href="http://www.latimes.com/world/worldnow/la-fg-wn-mexico-blow-up-nine-electrical-plants-20131027,0,3659405.story#axzz2j0KN3oWP">By Tracy Wilkinson</a><br /><br />October 27, 2013, 5:05 p.m.<br /><br />MEXICO CITY -- Assailants early Sunday <i>blew up at least nine electrical power plants</i> in one of Mexico's largest states, triggering blackouts that gunmen then used as cover to torch gasoline stations, residents and authorities said.<br /><br />The attacks in Michoacan state, west of the capital, did not cause deaths or serious injuries, authorities said. But they served as a pointed reminder of the strength of drug gangs and other criminals.<br /><br />Shortly after midnight, attackers armed with Molotov cocktails almost simultaneously disabled electrical substations in at least nine cities and towns in Michoacan,<i> plunging an estimated 1 million people into darkness. The power was out for 15 hours.<br /></i><br />   <br /><br />Gunmen then torched four gasoline stations, including two in the state capital of Morelia, a popular tourist destination.<br /><br />Michoacan for years has been controlled either by the Knights Templar or its predecessor La Familia, cartels that specialize in methamphetamine exported to the United States and that have controlled many city halls and police departments. More recently, groups of citizens have taken up weapons to form self-defense squads against the traffickers.<br /><br />It may have been one of these groups that briefly seized the city hall in the large town of Apatzingan, residents said.<br /><br />Federal authorities said they were sending hundreds of police and military troops to reinforce security in the region. The attacks came barely two days after the state's governor, Fausto Vallejo, resumed duties after a long illness.<br /><br />"The only thing we can conclude ... is that the organized criminals are winning the battle against federal and state authorities," Miguel Angel Chavez, head of the opposition National Action Party, told the Quadratin news agency, adding that the violence of the last 24 hours was a terrorist attack.</blockquote><br /><br />One million people without power for 15 hours.<br />I can't believe they got it all working in that time span so I will just assume they got a majority of it back up.<br /><br />Still, a potential SHTF scenario if I ever saw one what with armed gunmen running around torching gas stations in a grid down situation.<br /><br />Just to send a message.<br /><br />There isn't fuck all stopping them from taking a leisurely stroll North of the border and repeating this little scenario either.<br /><br />Nothing.<br /><br />The North American Liberty Games may turn into just that, a whole fucking continent wide conflict.<br /><br />Ain't that just something to look forward to?<br /><br />You can bet your ass that the Goons in our government just had a shiver run down their spine and are thanking Someone that it wasn't up here, this time.<br /><a href="http://www.nytimes.com/2013/08/17/us/as-worries-over-the-power-grid-rise-a-drill-will-simulate-a-knockout-blow.html?_r=0">As a matter of fact they are due to have a practice run at this very scenario next month </a>.<br /><br /><br /><br />So there is your proof that it is <i>VERY</i> possible to take out large portions of the grid as some have postulated.<br /><br />This could have some very interesting repercussions,here in Amerika.

They participated in a webinar series on how to set up and manage a blog as well as a session on how to run a TeachMeet. If you live near a Vodacom ICT Resource Centre look out for your Centre’s TeachMeet and consider being a “keen-bean” who shares an idea for using ICT in the classroom or attending as an “enthusiastic lurker” who attends a TeachMeet to learn from others. We are sure that the Vodacom ICT Resource Centre Managers will use the TeachMeets as an opportunity to pass on some of the tools and tricks they learnt about at the SchoolNet ICT in the Classroom conference and that local teachers will share some of their engaging learning activities that make use of technology. </span><br /><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><strong><span style="font-size: large;">TeachMeet webinar presentation and recording</span></strong> </span><br /><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Recently Megan Rademeyer of SchoolNet presented a webinar on TeachMeets to the Vodacom Centre Managers.  </span><br /><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Here is the presentation:</span><br /><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="356" marginheight="0" marginwidth="0" scrolling="no" src="http://www.slideshare.net/slideshow/embed_code/27637952" style="border-bottom: #ccc 0px solid; border-left: #ccc 1px solid; border-right: #ccc 1px solid; border-top: #ccc 1px solid; margin-bottom: 5px;" width="427"> </iframe>  <br /><div style="margin-bottom: 5px;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><i><strong><a href="https://www.slideshare.net/Schoolnetsa11/2013-what-is-a-teach-meet-schoolnet-sa" target="_blank" title="2013 what is a teach meet - schoolnet sa">2013 what is a teach meet - schoolnet sa</a> </strong>from <strong><a href="http://www.slideshare.net/Schoolnetsa11" target="_blank">Schoolnet SA </a></strong></i></span></div><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Here is a copy of the recording if you would like to listen to it.<br /><a href="http://meet78641452.adobeconnect.com/p8tamobwef1/">http://meet78641452.adobeconnect.com/p8tamobwef1/</a> </span><br /><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">To find out more about what is happening at the Vodacom ICT Resource Centres, visit: <a href="http://digitalclassroom.co.za/digitalclassroom/index.php">http://digitalclassroom.co.za/digitalclassroom/index.php</a></span></div>

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><div class="MsoNormal">Hola all you heathens! Woo-Boy! Let me tell ya, we had a EPIC show yesterday on IWS Radio! We had Rev James Smith PhD High Priest and founder of the <a href="https://www.facebook.com/pages/Celtic-Wiccan-Coven/240247364340" target="_blank">Celtic Wicca Coven</a> on and he rocked the house. He told us all about Wicca and Druidism and shot down a whole lot of the myths about both. <o:p></o:p></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br /></div><div class="MsoNormal">I’ll be honest with you guys, when I threw the idea out there to Matt-Man last Sunday that we find someone involved with Wicca for our Halloween Show, I was really thinking about someone similar to Michelle Pfeiffer from “Witches of Eastwick.” I really didn’t think we could find an actual Wicca High Priest who would be so personable and knowledgeable. <o:p></o:p></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEii6oAVx6Oca6m7Ae9DPvlCA3iPp4fVtqnvDJIRkardC8zv9jl3_WuJs6L2mGzuhXgs7iD6w0bO3Z5tTFZW9VqgWdk8FPYXU9VvBNlPpkvXucUzr33fESs3SsmJkxwaXmJpICkWSWTJkzJX/s1600/Michelle+Pfeiffer+Hot+Sexy+Nude.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="269" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEii6oAVx6Oca6m7Ae9DPvlCA3iPp4fVtqnvDJIRkardC8zv9jl3_WuJs6L2mGzuhXgs7iD6w0bO3Z5tTFZW9VqgWdk8FPYXU9VvBNlPpkvXucUzr33fESs3SsmJkxwaXmJpICkWSWTJkzJX/s400/Michelle+Pfeiffer+Hot+Sexy+Nude.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><br /></div><div class="MsoNormal">We tried to trip Dr. Smith up. We threw all the big myths about Wicca at him. You know, witchcraft, sorcery, devil worshiping, dark arts and the idea that Wiccans (and Druids) are just a bunch of dope smoking hippies getting jiggy with it out there in a field under the full moon. I was especially disappointed to find that the dope smoking hippies getting jiggy with it wasn’t true. But, we’ve all had our hopes shattered before. All we can do is accept it and move on with our lives. <o:p></o:p></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br /></div><div class="MsoNormal">Dr. Smith pointed out a number of things that people don’t know about Wicca…<o:p></o:p></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br /></div><div class="MsoNormal">- Wicca is not patriarchal like most religions are. <br />- There is no central “governing authority” over Wicca. <br />- Wiccans don’t believe in or acknowledge Satan or Hell. <br />- Very few people engage in Wicca practices nude. (Bummer, right?)<br />- Wiccans do spells which are very much like blessings and prayers. <br />- Wiccans believe that the spirit of the Goddess and God exist in all things. <br />- No magick is done for the purposes of hurting anyone. Whatever you do others, will come back to you threefold. <br />- The witches and Wiccans you see in modern pop culture like movies and TV shows don’t exist.<br />- Wiccans (and Druids) are still persecuting in many ways by society. <br />- Wiccans only want to live in harmony with nature, be good members of society and respect one another. <br />- Not all Pagans are Wiccans, not all Wiccans are Pagans.<br />- The Pentagram is a five point star that means “Water” Earth” “Fire” “Air” and “Spirit” (It isn’t the sign of the Occult.)<br />- They do cool chants, one of which Rev Smith shared with us on the air. <o:p></o:p></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br /></div><div class="MsoNormal">Is that so wrong? Does that sound like the monsters and/or evil hag witches that you see on TV and in the movies all the time? Hell no! In fact, one could actually make the argument that what most people who practice religions like Christianity are most afraid of is Wiccan’s ability to be tolerant and accepting of everyone and everyone’s choices. (Well, not really bad people like pedophiles and wife beaters and that kind of shit.) Another thing that “tradition” religions fear is how Wiccans don’t try to take control of your life. They don’t use judgment, shame and fear to try and control people and keep them in line. <o:p></o:p></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhm5geXSmaULf-L-Ngv-NjTWUvlGt1Uk2900j5yjEVeJloG9-q-Wh56eQ_Ty2TZfQ7DhsObVryLJfdN4Nb1G_MDvUhzTz9D2iEaQQ1RL-q9EYFzwNAL8dyEhMaHs-NZTmf0YF0iq4EbzgcU/s1600/Wiccan+Pentagram.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhm5geXSmaULf-L-Ngv-NjTWUvlGt1Uk2900j5yjEVeJloG9-q-Wh56eQ_Ty2TZfQ7DhsObVryLJfdN4Nb1G_MDvUhzTz9D2iEaQQ1RL-q9EYFzwNAL8dyEhMaHs-NZTmf0YF0iq4EbzgcU/s1600/Wiccan+Pentagram.jpg" /></a></div><br /></div><div class="MsoNormal">I really don’t see why so many people are so afraid of Wiccans. They seem pretty harmless to me. I would say the really bad people are the two closed-minded and intolerant people who defriended me on Facebook after I posted a link to the show. No Wiccan would ever do that! <o:p></o:p></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br /></div><div class="MsoNormal">Anyway, there’s lots more cool stuff in yesterday’s show about Wicca AAAAAND a dramatic reading of Edgar Allan Poe’s “The Raven” by the IWS Players! You should totally check it out. If you don’t it will only result in bad karma for you in the future. Or something. <o:p></o:p></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br /></div><div class="MsoNormal"><iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="370" src="https://player.cinchcast.com/?show_id=5599419&platformId=1&assetType=single" width="400"></iframe><br /><div style="font-size: 10px; text-align: center; width: 400px;"><a href="http://www.blogtalkradio.com/comedy">Discover Comedy Internet Radio</a> with <a href="http://www.blogtalkradio.com/im-with-stupid">IWS Radio</a> on BlogTalkRadio</div></div><br /><br /><div class="MsoNormal"><a href="mailto:Jayman3768@gmail.com">Jayman3768@gmail.com</a><br /><a href="http://www.facebook.com/jayman68" target="_blank">Facebook</a><br /><a href="http://www.twitter.com/jayman_iws" target="_blank">@Jayman_IWS</a><o:p></o:p><br /><br /></div></div>
