Just Call Me Ruxxxty Banes...Part 1
2008-03-23 22:20:00 Inside, I was roiling with emotions. I had just defeated and consumed three Banes, some of the most powerful servants of the An?girasii almost single-handedly, but my friends were now looking up at me with a mixture of fear and awe that I found to be strangely pleasing. I felt a rush of power coursing through my body and my Spirit that made me feel almost invincible. I just knew that I could not be beaten, that there was no one who could destroy me. This was what it felt like to be a god!People were speaking and moving about, but I was too wrapped up in my own experiences to pay any attention to what these lesser creatures were talking about or doing. I was imagining how easy it was going to be to hunt down and destroy all of the remaining Banes so that I could become even stronger. As random memories from the conquered Banes came flooding up to my consciousness, I realized how easy it would be to take on the An?girasii themselves. Surely, I thought, no single An?girasii could be an...
A War of Shadows...Part 5
2008-03-10 04:26:00 Jim stumbled backwards from the explosion of energy and ichor caused by his fatal thrust of Excalibur into the Bane?s back. I waited, watching for that special moment of vulnerability, knowing that it would come soon.Arixtocles struggled to stem the flow of blood and power. His hands clutched towards the edges of the blade as if he could push it back the way it had come, but Excalibur was simply too powerful, its magick prevented him from touching the edges.The Bane staggered, his feet now touching the ground for the first time I had seen, then fell to his knees. The link between his magickally enhanced body and his Spirit form was weakening. Still laid out on my back, I concentrated on being prepared as the moment inched closer. Two strong tentacles of Shadow extended from my core, poised to strike.Arixtocles? convulsed, spitting out a geyser of blood before he collapsed in a boneless heat. Just as his body slumped to the ground, his Spirit form coalesced at a point slightly in fro...
A War of Shadows...Part 3
2008-02-18 02:56:00 The last thing I did before making the jump myself was to re-activate the obelisk with a quick touch and a simple command. That sealed the trap, preventing any of my unwitting victims from escaping back through the Shadowland.There was a serene moment of silence as we all landed in the middle of the snow filled shallow clearing. That silence was shattered as a very surprised looking Dragon plummeted into the place where I had been standing. Without the weaker gravity and abundant magick of the Shadowland, the Dragon found that his bulk was too great to fly. He crashed snout first into the snow-covered ice of the small lake in the center of the depression with a thunderous roar. The Demon, who had been charging towards me in the Shadowland, gave out a snarling yelp and dove to the side to avoid being crushed by the Dragon?s bulk. Several wolves and three Reavers were not so lucky.Before the snow and ice thrown up by the Dragon?s impact could settle back to the ground, chaos erupted a...
A War of Shadows...Part 2
2008-02-10 19:35:00 Calling upon the Shadow to speed my travel, I breezed through the last three hundred yards of my journey. I emerged in a large clearing that was more of a shallow depression. Near the center of the roughly circular depression stood the obelisk that I had known would be waiting.The obelisk rose from the center of the depression, its brooding dark presence dominating the space. A quick glance around the far perimeter of the clearing showed the brightly-hued Spirit forms of Herne?s assault team, over twenty strong in all. Herne was waiting in the center of the depression next to the obelisk. Next to him were Cerrydwen, Ravyn, Alana and Jim.I reached out to touch Herne?s Spirit form. He flinched before recognizing my touch. ?Damn, I?m glad that?s you Rusty. Our Spirit vision is blinded by this obelisk of yours.??Herne, there?s not much time to get ready, they will be here soon. I need your guys to get into place quickly. Did you bring the weapons we discussed??He nodded. ?Yes, Jasmine h...
A War of Shadows...Part 1
2008-02-03 16:02:00 The Shadowland whizzed by in a blur of grey and black images as I slowed a move fast trot. It was proving difficult to move too quickly through this stretch of wilderness since thick, twisted and very substantial trees existed both in the Shadowland and in the real world. John had once told me that this only happed in the oldest of forests. ?As trees age, their spirits strengthen, expanding their presence beyond the world of light to the land of shadow. It is almost as if their essence transfers slowly from one world to the next once they reach the height of their majesty. In some places in the Shadowland there are majestic, towering trees where there is now nothing but fields or cement roads in the world of the living. But alas, over time, those forests fade away in the Shadowland as well once the living trees have been gone long enough.?My guess was that this stretch of Alaskan wilds hadn?t been significantly touched by Man for hundreds, if not thousands of years.The howling of my...
Forgiveness
2008-01-26 18:34:00 (The events of this post take place several weeks after the events of the previous post?sorry, but some events must remain hidden for reasons of operational security.)I stepped from Shadow into the quiet darkness of the pre-dawn wilderness just outside of our hidden haven. Inside my head, though, it was anything but quiet. Dark whispering voices cried out, expressing their hunger, their pain.After four weeks of constant forays to locate and retrieve stragglers the Bat Cave was bursting at the seams with people. There were very few areas where there weren?t any cots or sleeping mats laid out for ORC?s or their family members. The Frau had been working hard to find each and every person as much space and privacy as the cramped quarters could provide, but even she couldn?t cast a spell that would create enough space for the nearly four hundred survivors that had been assembled.I needed an opportunity to be alone with my thoughts and to deal with shattered remnants of those dark spirits...
"This...I say...This Means War!!!"
2008-01-12 22:51:00 Jim, Ravyn and I stepped from the Shadow into the shadow of the enormous oak tree in the southwestern corner of Jim?s backyard. The night was dark, since the sliver of the waning moon was obscured by thick, low hanging clouds. It was a quiet, quaint neighborhood of faculty and administrator?s homes for the nearby college. A dog barked in the distance, but not at us.Jim looked pensive as peered through the night towards his darkened home. ?I don?t see any damage.? He was whispering as he leaned forward.Ravyn nodded, her hands clenching the cuffs of her sweatshirt to keep herself from calling fire out of habit. ?I doubt they were worried about the outside of your house, Jim.? She kept her voice to a low whisper as well.I reached out and touched each of them on the shoulders as I leaned towards them. ?I?ll pop inside to get a quick look around. I want you guys to stay here.? I looked directly to Ravyn. ?Keep a sharp eye out, but try to burn the neighborhood down, will ya??She gave me a...
Starting over...
2008-01-05 05:29:00 ?is never easy.The band of ORC?s that arrived in the Bat Cave was a tired, wounded, ragged bunch of shell-shocked survivors. The assault by El Diablito?s forces and An?girasii allies had come as a total surprise. Every ORC safe house, stronghold and academy across the United States had been hit in some way on the same night. All told, hundreds ORC members and students had been slain; dozens more were badly injured or missing. By the time the final tally of escapees and survivors was taken?several days later?fewer than three hundred full fledged members and associates of the ORC?s survived that deadly night. The last census prior to that deadly night had put the membership rolls at just over a thousand members and associates. Forty of those survivors came with me to the Bat Cave.After a close inspection by Cerrydwen, Ravyn or myself, I created a portal of Shadow that established a link between El Diablito?s dark tower in the Shadowland and another place of relative darkness?the entra...
Little Keep on the Borderlands... Epilogue
2007-11-02 18:51:00 Cerrydwen waved us forward. ?Come, let me take you to the others. I can explain things bit as we walk.?Despite the appearance that these two were who they seemed to be, I was more than a little nervous as we came up closer to them.Ravyn showed no such inhibitions and gave each of the women a big hug. She exchanged quiet, unheard words with each of them and seemed more than satisfied with the responses that each gave her.The Frau padded up and gave both Ravyn and Zenny a long sniff and single wet lick on the cheek. Jim took the more cautious approach of a small wave and a nod of acknowledgement to each.Cerrydwen turned and nodded back in the direction from which she had come. ?Well, let?s start our little tour of the mad man?s little tower of horrors.? The massive stone door grated open with a wave of her hand. ?This whole place is a tapestry of tightly wound spells that must have taken years to craft. This lower level is where he houses a small army of the trolls that you have seen ...
Little Keep on the Borderlands...Part 4
2007-10-09 05:44:00 I was up and running towards the third troll before his spear stopped skidding behind us. I wasn?t sure what I was going to do when I got to him, since I didn?t have a weapon in hand. It had already turned its attention so fray between the Frau and his companion, so my leaping kick landed squarely on the side of his enormous kneecap. I felt and heard the crunching of the bone. His leg buckled and collapsed on itself.I tucked and rolled out of the way of a massive fist that sought to crush me as the thing lashed out n a blind rage at its sudden immobility.By the time I had tumbled to safety and regained my bearings, I saw that Jim had already found his own footing and was racing to help the Frau in her struggle. Ravyn was striding forward towards the troll that was now trying to hobble towards me. She smiled as she sent a lancing bolt of flame into the back of its skull, ending his miserable life before his smoldering corpse hit the floor.I turned to see how Jim and the Frau were far...
Sole Asylum...Part 1
2007-08-11 05:35:00 After some deliberation it was decided that our side trip to check out the stash left behind by Drake would come after we set up a base of operations at the Asylum.While Naomi, Alexa, and Cerrydwen packed up for their journey through the Transit Point to Herne?s Lodge, Ravyn grabbed me by the shoulders. ?I need some decent clothing, Zombie. This simply will not do.?I nodded. ?OK. What do you want me to do about it??She smiled. ?You?re taking me shopping.?I glanced down at my watch. ?There?s not much open at this hour. It?s still too early for anything except those 24 hour supermarkets.?Her grin was positively wicked. ?That?s why I need you. Jim?s told me about a group of very high end boutiques in New York that is wholly owned by the Mercury Unlimited Group. This shopping trip is going to be courtesy of Dick Arnold and friends.??But why would they open just for us??She reached up and slapped her palm on my forehead. ?You can be so dense. If I was going to wait for them to open for b...
Playing Hardball...Part 3
2007-07-29 05:54:00 Jim tossed his mangled, misshapen cap on the couch and stalked off towards the front door mumbling something unintelligible.Everyone else began to mill around, gathering items that they might need and packing them into bags. The slamming front door told us that Jim was back, a small black briefcase in hand. He moved to the bar counter between the kitchen and common room and opened the case to reveal a computer of some sort. I moved to get a better look. ?What?s this all about??He glanced sideways at me before pressing a button that began firing up the thing. ?I need to make the alert goes out to all ORC facilities and independent operators out there. This computer represents the merging of magick and technology that we have been able to come up with. It has the capability to uplink to the net in a way that can?t be tracked or traced by anything the government has. I don?t want anyone else caught by surprise.?The inside of the case was completely taken up by this computer. He had ope...
Playing Hardball...Part 2
2007-07-28 02:26:00 I turned to face the Frau. ?OK, we?ve seen what?s happened at the Coop. What else is going on??Frau scrunched up her face as she moved to take a seat on a comfortable looking sofa and waved for the rest of us to do the same. ?You all might as well sit down. Things have gone from bad to worse in a hurry.?Cerrydwen emerged from the kitchen to place a steaming platter of eggs, sausages and toast on the counter that separated the kitchen from the immense common room. ?If anyone?s hungry, come and get it while it is still hot.?Ravyn rushed to the bar stool nearest the food and began piling a plate high with servings of everything. She waved at the Frau to begin speaking. ?Don?t wait on me. I?ve never been so hungry in my life. I?m listening!?The Frau nodded, setting her cane to the side as Alexa came bouncing up into her lap with an energetic giggle. ?Herne did note that everyone that Ravyn and Betsy had sent out there had arrived safely, but the news was certainly not all good.? Her gla...
These Southerners have a strange way of reacting to a little bit of snow.
2007-07-24 21:10:00 Almost half an inch of snow fell on Little Root, Arkansas this week. This unseasonable storm resulted in severe hardship in the area and has baffled meteorologists and banjo players alike.The telephone line was down for several hours and the electrical outlet for the area was not functioning. At last report, a power line was being run from the State Capital, to service the area. Work on the project commenced immediately and should be finished sometime in July. So far 25 extension cords have been strung together and only 180,000 more are required. To care for the injured the hospital and crafts store remained open for an extra three and a half hours Wednesday and citizens flocked to an impromptu blood donor clinic in the back of Jethro’s Auto Body Shop. Arley’s book store loaned their magazine to the clinic so that if any of the donors were able, they would have something to read. But perhaps the greatest loss was suffered by Billy Bob Ramalam who dropped a five dollar bi...

A Nation of Sleepwalkers — Even Southerners Forget Their History
2007-07-06 15:37:00 Many Americans from the north like to scoff that our southern brethren are still fighting the Civil War, treating them as if they are unaware that the war was over nearly 150 years ago. It has been so often repeated that southerners are still “Confederate” that the stereotype of the southerner looking to the past instead of the future is secure in northerner’s minds. Would that it were true that all southerners are so fond of their history because it appears that even one of the most famous Confederate cemeteries in the Confederacy’s very own capitol is being forgotten, uncared for, and repeatedly vandalized. The bad news is that Oakwood cemetery in Richmond, Virginia, is being forgotten and ignored, and, as mentioned, it is also being increasingly vandalized. The good news is that a community group has not only volunteered to take upon themselves the upkeep and maintenance of the final resting place of 17,000 Confederate solders, but they have already raised...

Ethernet
2007-06-10 14:15:00 Ethernet is a large, diverse family of frame-based computer networking technologies that operates at many speeds for local area networks (LANs). The name comes from the physical concept of the ether. It defines a number of wiring and signaling standards for the physical layer, through means of network access at the Media Access Control (MAC)/Data Link Layer, and a common addressing format.Ethernet has been standardized as IEEE 802.3. The combination of the twisted pair versions of Ethernet for connecting end systems to the network, along with the fiber optic versions for site backbones, has become the most widespread wired LAN technology. It has been in use from the 1990s to the present, largely replacing competing LAN standards such as coaxial cable Ethernet, token ring, FDDI, and ARCNET. In recent years, Wi-Fi, the wireless LAN standardized by IEEE 802.11, has been used instead of Ethernet for many home and small office networks and in addition to Ethernet in larger installations....

For Southerners Moving North... Some Advice
2007-03-19 17:33:00 ADVICE TO SOUTHERNERS MOVING NORTH1. Remember; "yous" can be singular or plural. “You guys†or “Yous guys†is plural and for both sexes. Use it as you would typically use “y’all†down south.2. At the end of every other sentence put an “eh?†on it. Doesn’t matter if it was a question, it could be a statement too eh?3. If you take a cab, be forewarned that none of the cab drivers up north speak anything remotely close to your language.4. Don't be surprised to find liquor sold in drug stores.5. Get used to hearing the "F" word and try not to take offense. Most northerners just use it as an adjective. It's f----ing cold, it's f----ing hot, she's f----ing ugly, What the "F" you looking at," etc.6. The spring wardrobe you brought out in March can wait until the end of June.7.

LCD display with ethernet interface
2007-02-23 09:22:02 Guido writes -Originally I wanted to write the next article about a weather station based on the avr web server. Based on a request from a customer I decided then to develop this circuit first. The weather station comes next. There are a number of interesting aspects/problems here which could also be useful for developing other circuits.Most LCD displays want 5V. The avr web server uses 3.3VThe simple "switch on/off a relay" circuit which was the only function provided by the avr web server until now did not require HTML-forms. I used simply 2 URLs http://baseurl/password/1 for switching on and http://baseurl/password/0 for switching off. This does not work anymore for the display as we want to type a text into a web page which should then be shown on the display. What is needed is a needed is a proper decoding of HTML form data.
